Who Wears the Pants Scene 50

Howard won the argument temporarily when he made a unilateral decision that they should see the action film. When he tried to purchase their tickets for the “R” rated movie, the woman in the ticket sales booth demanded to see his identification proving he was eighteen as required by law. Howard was stymied. He couldn’t show the woman his driver’s license; she’d never believe it was his and might call the police. He smiled as if he had been joking and turned to Anita for help. Instead nodding in silent agreement to validate his right to buy the tickets, she blithely moved him aside and quietly bought the tickets for the “G” movie that she had wanted to see. Once the money was received and the color-coded tickets were dispensed by the machine, Anita put her hand on the globe and received the injection of the tuned circuit. Howard did the same, but since Anita had unobtrusively purchased a discount children’s content ticket for him, the ticket-taker did not actuate the mechanism that injected the tuned circuit. The sphere merely blew a harmless jet of air at his palm. Since the sensations produced by the globe were the same for everyone, he had no way of knowing that his movie going experience had been preprogrammed for child’s content only. Anita might have purchased a mature content ticket for him if he had not tried to bully her into seeing his movie rather than hers, but she had been irritated by his behavior and decided to play a harmless joke on him.
