I've just made a fool of myself

for telling.

What do you do in your dreams?

Me?

I f***.

So, let's begin.

Time of first menstruation?

November 5, 1998.

- Any surgery?

- None.

- Contagious diseases?

- Chicken pox.

- When?

- March 21 - April 7, 1990.

You remember so precisely?

I remembered.

I see.

It's a bit unusual.

Is there some reason for you to remember?

No.

Okay. Tell we what you dreamt last night.

- You don't remember?

- I do.

I'm just thinking of how to tell it.

I'll finish in a moment.

Sure, fine.

- Please.

- Yes?

It would be easier without this noise.

What noise?

Sorry. It wasn't nice of me.

I've had a long day.

But I'm really listening now.

Tell me your dream.

I was very hungry.

I rooted through the snow

but there was no food anywhere.

My companion helped me search.

He found a thick,

juicy leaf under the snow.

He let me have all of it. I ate it.

It didn't taste bad...

...just a bit nauseating.

Afterwards, I felt strange.

You were an animal in your dream,

is that right?

Yes.

What animal? Can you tell me?

A deer.

I see.

Go on. What else happened?

We have decided to go down to the stream.

Your companion...

Well...

...did you mate?

Why don't you answer?

I was just waiting for you

to find what you were looking for.

Did you find it?

Yes, I found it. Thank you.

So then?

No.

No, what?

We didn't mate.

Right.

But was there any physical contact

between you?

His nose touched mine.

Our noses touched when we drank.

Tell me, why are you doing this to me?

I don't understand.

As you wish. Send the next person in.

They called you back in?

Don't worry, I'm sure it's nothing.

Relax.

Stop touching me.

Leave me alone. There's no problem.

Okay, forget I said anything.

I want to know

about your little private joke.

You think it's funny?

I need to evaluate the material.

And the dream analysis

is a part of it. Okay?

Yes.

Then tell me what you

really dreamt last night!

Not what the two of you arranged.

I'm just trying to do my job.

I don't care about anyone's private life.

I want to go home, take a shower.

That's all.

Doctor, maybe you've overworked yourself?

It happens.

All right...

I dreamt that I was a deer.

I don't know what you'll conclude

from that. Probably nothing.

So you were a deer. And?

That's about it.

I did things deer usually do, I suppose...

What an odd coincidence, right?

Anyway, I just wanted to say

we don't have to feel awkward.

We're adults after all, right?

Yes.

Actually, it's kind of funny, no?

It's funny.

Bon apptit.

How's the meat?

The meat is satisfactory.

I always end up with leathery meat here...

What did you dream last night?
