-So, to get the answer, we
take the number of babies
with Down's Syndrome who
positives, which is 9.5
divided by 9.5 plus
49.5, equaling 16.1%,
what I trust is a somewhat
counter-intuitive answer,
given the high probability
of the test producing
baby has Down's Syndrome and
the relatively low probability
of false positives.
Now, this is an example of
Any questions? Good.
Now, remember that the
mid-term is next Tuesday.
I will be available in my
office hours today, but please
only stop by if you
have specific questions
on specific problems. I will
not be offering an overview
of the past eight weeks.
All right,
that will be all for today.
-Hey Claude. How are you?
-Who are we playing tonight?
-Tom and Dick.
Then the Hendersons. -Great.
Tom clear his throat
every five seconds.
-Mm
hm. Let's take our seats.
-OK, I should be
back around five.
Um, leftovers in the
fridge if you get hungry.
-OK, see you later.
-Oh, hey, are you
going running today?
-I don't think so, I'm just
going to read my book. Why?
I was just going to have you
mail a few letters for me.
Never mind, I can mail them.
Have a good day.
-See you later.
-Bye sweet girl.
-Hey, ooh.
Oh my, oh my, aren't
we getting big?
Auntie Kim's bored with her book.
What do you say
we go for a little jog
in the park, huh? Hm,
how does that sound? Let
Auntie Kim get our jackets,
and then we can be on our way.
Yeah? OK.
-Excuse me, miss? Miss? Ah,
is this Pier Point Park ?
-Yes, it is.
-Where is the clock tower?
-Clock tower? Um, I'm not aware
of any clock tower in the park.
-How odd, I'm supposed
to meet someone here,
that's what she said. See?
-I don't know. I mean
Shh. Shh. Sit up. Shh.
Now, we're miles away from
anyone, so it's not gonna
do you any good to scream.
-Annie, the baby, where is she?
What have you done with her?
-The baby? Is she not your baby?
-Where is she? Is she OK?
-I've done nothing to the baby.
I left her in the stroller
by the jogging path. Now, I'm
sure she's been found already.
I'm sure she's all right.
Now, you referred to her
as "the baby," not "my
baby." Is she not yours?
-She's my niece. Who are you?
What do you want with me?
-Your niece? How unfortunate. I
was rather hoping she was yours.
-Why? What do you want with me?
-All questions that
will undoubtedly be
answered in due time. Now,
let's get you out of this.
You'll be much more comfortable.
Here, OK. Here we go. Stay still.
OK, OK. I'm just gonna
Here, OK. Here we go. Stay still.
OK, OK. I'm just gonna
put this around your
leg, all right? OK.
Here we go. Stay still. I'm not
gonna hurt you. Here we go.
There we go. All right now,
let's take these handcuffs off.
Here, OK. OK.
There we go.
No, no. I don't
want to hurt you,
but if you resist,
I may have to.
You must be hungry.
I'll get you some food.
-Oh my God, oh my
God, oh my God.
-I brought you your breakfast.
Tell me your name.
-Why are you doing all this?
What do you want with me?
You said I would
find out in due time.
-You are to be my
nourishing mother,
my alma mater, if you will.
Now, please, eat some of your
breakfast, and we'll have
a nice little chat
in the meantime.
-Tell me your name.
-Kim.
And how old are you, Kim? -24.
-Now, I noticed an engagement
ring, but no wedding band.
Were you to be married soon?
-Yes. In four months.
-And what do you do?
-What does it matter?
-I'm just trying to
make conversation,
get to know you a little bit, is all.
Do you have a job?
-No.
-Are you a student?
Master's in English literature.
Well, congratulations.
That's wonderful.
And, what were you planning
to do with your degree?
-I Thought I might
try to write a novel.
A novel? Excellent. Well here,
here you will have ample time
and few distractions. I'll
have to get you materials.
Now, I know that the
effects of imprisonment
can be psychologically devastating.
But, having a
goal, a project,
a raison d'tre
as it were, can go a long
way to keeping you healthy.
-I'm not the first, am I?
-What?
-The first woman
you've done this to?
-Why do you say that?
-What you just said,
this whole set-up, the
chains, the chamber pot,
the hand for turning the light off.
You've done this before.
-You are a clever girl.
-What happened to the others?
-Other. There is only one other.
-What happened to her?
Where is she?
-Look, I'm afraid that you've
hit upon a subject that I
don't wish to discuss.
Now, I'm sure that you are
fearing the worst, but you mustn't, OK?
You're not
her, so please, let's
Anything else. -Is she dead?
You killed her, didn't you? And
you're gonna kill me too. Why?
Why? Look, look, I don't
know who you are or
how you got me here. Just let me go.
Just let me go,
and I won't say anything.
-Please don't get
hysterical, please, please.
I am not going to harm you.
You must believe that.
But I can't just let you go.
But someday...
I will let you go.
Why don't you finish
your breakfast.
-I'm not hungry.
-Very well then.
In that case, I'm gonna have
to ask that you wear this.
In that case, I'm gonna have
to ask that you wear this.
Now, I hope that we
can dispense with it
in the near future, but I
don't want to be bitten again.
Open up, open up. There you go.
Come here.
All right, now, I'm
not going to hurt you.
I'm gonna have to ask that you
All I'm going to do is
massage your breasts.
That's it. I'm not going to hurt you.
Come here.
That's it. I'm not going to hurt you.
Come here.
Shh, shh. OK.
Shh, shh. OK.
I have something I thought
you might like to see.
As you can see, the
baby was found.
I thought you might
like to know that.
-What is this?
-Seared foie gras,
-Foie gras? That's
liver, isn't it?
-Yes. It's a special kind of goose liver.
It's delicious.
-I hate liver. I won't eat it.
-Just try it.
-No. Besides, that's the
kind of liver that they
have to torture the
goose to get, isn't it?
-It's not torture. Just try it.
-No.
-Just have one bite. If
you don't like it, fine.
-It's OK. I won't eat
anything tonight.
-All I ask is that you try it.
You're not even going
to have one bite?
I'll teach you to eat liver.
Tonight I've made lamb
chops, with mushroom risotto.
Butternut squash ravioli
with braised root vegetables.
Minestrone soup
with parmesan cheese
Hungarian goulash with spaetzle.
-OK. I get it. I'll try
anything you give me.
-Get it? You'll never get it.
not educate you.
-F*** you.
-That's never going to happen.
-How do you expect
me to produce milk
