SCENE XVI. A Moisturizing Conclusion

1 CHRISTIANUS. What do you say? Shall we wrap it up? I think the rain has caught up on us.

2 TIM. Sure. I need to go anyway. I have a meeting with one of my students at two thirty.

3 CHRISTIANUS. Aren’t your office hours on Tuesdays?

4 TIM. Sure. But this is a special case.

5 CHRISTIANUS. Special case?

6 TIM. Well, one of my students needs special attention.

7 CHRISTIANUS. It’s very generous of you to be so accessible.

8 TIM. It’s just my responsibility as a professor.

9 CHRISTIANUS. Really? To offer extra office hours?

10 TIM. Well, no. But to be flexible.

11 CHRISTIANUS. Flexible? Ha! What’s her name?

12 TIM. I beg your pardon?

13 CHRISTIANUS. You’re not going to tell me that you are inserting extra office hours to help just any student of yours?

14 TIM. No, of course not. As I said, this is a special case.

15 CHRISTIANUS. Or to help any of those militant male students who always interrupt your lectures with statements like ‘But the Schrödinger equation isn’t very important!’? [52]

16 TIM. I told you about them?

17 CHRISTIANUS. Only briefly, last week. But I take it that you're not inserting any extra office hours to accommodate their special needs, are you?

18 TIM. No, I'm not. They can come to my regular office hours if they need to see me.

19 CHRISTIANUS. Right. So who is she?

20 TIM. Well . . .

21 CHRISTIANUS. Yes?

22 TIM. She’s adorable.

23 CHRISTIANUS. Adorable?

24 TIM. Yes. Lovely.

25 CHRISTIANUS. You mean she is hot?

26 TIM. No, not really. More cute than hot.

27 CHRISTIANUS. And not so smart?

28 TIM. No. But she is very interested. And I am glad to be of assistance.

29 CHRISTIANUS. I bet you are!

30 TIM. And she’s always very eager to listen.

31 CHRISTIANUS. Hmmm . . . dangerous!

32 TIM. I think I can handle her.

33 CHRISTIANUS. No doubt. But what about those in the department? Aren’t they going to kick you out if you start dating your own students?

34 TIM. But I am not dating her, really.

35 CHRISTIANUS. You’re not?

36 TIM. No. We’re just studying together.

37 CHRISTIANUS. Ha!

38 TIM. But now it starts to rain!

39 CHRISTIANUS. Crap!

40 TIM. Same time next week?

41 CHRISTIANUS. I don’t know yet. I’ll email you.

42 TIM. OK! Have to run!

43 CHRISTIANUS. Me too! Bye!

44 TIM. Bye!

Notes (SCENE XVI)

[52] XVI:15, Schrödinger equation: According to Mikhail Aleksandrovich Shubin, the Schrödinger equation is ‘the basic equation of quantum theory’, and its study ‘plays an exceptionally important role in modern physics’ (Shubin 1991, p. xiii).
