of solitude in service of science.

Any questions?

Any requests, then?

No.

I'm just...

I, too, love sharing

- and a joyous atmosphere at work.

- Good.

Today, we're doing basic tests.

We'll take samples

and do a full workup.

I'll need to ask you...

to get undressed.

Hurry. We have a lot

of samples to take.

Christophine, I only meant the blouse.

It's okay. We'll do a full checkup.

Right side.

Right.

- What was your last weigh-in?

- One hundred and ten pounds.

I have 120 here.

My bones are heavy.

Only ten left.

Is it good?

One of your bandages is off.

There. That's better.

Urine and stool.

Christophine, I have the impression

today was tough on you.

No, no. It was fun.

I'm a bit hungry.

- Aren't you?

- No.

Let's have some fun.

I have planned a little something.

You'll see. I think I did good.

The stimulus we're looking for coincides

with an electrical signal

or nerve response.

We gotta do what we gotta do.

It's past 7 p.m.

You can leave.

Here.

Inside, you'll find your diet

for the week.

You need to have the perfect lifestyle.

You are to note every single move you make

outside of the lab.

You'll also find

a customized questionnaire.

And my cell phone number

for emergencies.

Well...

Have a nice evening.

- Have a nice evening.

- Day One.

Stimulus by physical shock...

and electrical shock.

Day Two.

Taking samples of blood

and saliva

from the control patient.

First analysis confirms the presence

of penguin DNA

and of modified PPM

in the system.

Day Three. Changing the eating habits

of the subject.

Going for oligophagy.

No physiological alterations.

Day Five. The hematological

monitoring of the patient,

urine and stool testing

confirm that the PPM is

accepted by the system.

Although it is not yet active.

Day Seven.

Still looking for the stimulus

by activating

the somatosensory system

in the spinothalamic pathway.

On my signal.

Three...

two...

one.

Twenty minutes, Christophine.

Twenty minutes.

There.

That's it for today.

Okay.

She's still praising herself for

having prolonged

about a half-life

the life of the mice.

She wants me to make a mistake.

She's publishing her advances

in the hopes I'll publish mine.

It's a ridiculous plan.

Are you coming?

What is he doing up there?

Don't worry, Nadine.

He knows what he's doing.

You know it's only 7:15 p.m.

Dinner time in this week's schedule

is at 8.

I know.

- Can we make an exception?

- No.

I'm leaving a little early this evening,

I have plans.

I'm sorry. I didn't want to wake you.

You can still rest if you want.

Good night.

Is it a dinner date?

Sorry?

Your dinner. Is it...?

Dinner.

See you tomorrow.
