What The Bleep Do We Know Page #7

the smallest unit

of consciousness in the body.

I'm hungry!

- ^^^^[ Disco ]

- Oh. Yeah.

- ^^^^[ Disco ]

- Oh. Yeah.

[ Male Cell ] Oh,yeah.!

- We've commandeered an entire serving platter.

- [ Belching ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Exhales ]

- ^^^^[ Dance ]

- [ Grunts ]

Yeah! Keep it coming.

Keep it coming. Yeah.

- Delicious.

- Oh, yeah. Oh.

[ Belches ]

Well, my definition of an addiction

is something really simple:

something that you can't stop.

^^^^[ Continues ]

Don't make me suffer please.

Oh, I hurt!

[ Gasping ]

[ Man ] We bring to ourselves

situations that will fulfill...

the biochemical craving

of the cells of our body...

by creating situations that

meet our chemical needs.

It always happens to me.

- Every day!

- Why me?

And the addict will always

need a little bit more...

in order to get a rush or a high

of what they're looking for chemically.

Don't tell me to calm down!

You're always bossing me around.

So my definition really means that if you

can't control your emotional state...

you must be addicted to it.

Oh, I knew

this was gonna happen.

That's not what we agreed upon.!

You're not going to screw me--

[ Man ]

Why don't you read the contract?

- You won't do anything, so I will.

- No, no, ma'am.

Don't dip your half-eaten shrimp

back into the cocktail sauce.

Screw you and your health codes!

I am the bride's sister.

I'll stick my ass in the cocktail sauce

if I damn well please.

What are you standing there for? Get out and

serve. Make sure everybody has a full platter.

Fun, fun, fun.!

Listen, Steven.

You won't do anything

about it, so--

[ Girl's Voice ]

I want to be a photographerjust like you.

[ Man Shouting, Indistinct ]

So how can anyone really say

they're in love with a specific person...

for example?

They're only in love

with the anticipation...

of the emotions

they're addicted to.

Because the same person could fall out

of favor the next week by not complying.

My goodness, doesn't that

change the landscape...

of our emotional outlook

on personal needs and identities?

^^^^[ Rock ]

- [ Moaning ]

- [ Grunts ]

Oh, yeah.

Oh!

- [ Shutter Clicks ]

- Amanda!

^^^^[ Continues ]

- [ Needle Scratches ]

- How can you not f***ing see?

No! No, no, no, no.

You got the--

the punch line wrong.

It's a--

It's a photographer's joke.

Go on about your, uh--

- Uh, music?

- ^^^^[ Rock ]

Are-- Are you okay?

Well, I--

I saw that groom

f***ing some girl!

Uh, when?

Just now!

I was with the, uh--

the groom--

Hey, I can read lips!

Uh, I'm sorry. Uh, I was

with the groom just now.

Yeah, he loves Paulette.

- Where?

- [ Mouthing Words ]

[ Woman Laughs ]

- [ Laughs ]

- [ Man Clears Throat ]

Polacks-- They all

look the same in a tux.

You're not Polish,

are-- Uh, hi.

- Thanks. Here.

- [ Exhales ]

This-- This'll help.

- Oh, thank you.

- No problem. [ Clears Throat ]

That was in my mouth.

Forget it.

^^^^[ Continues ]

[ Exhales ]

So, what's your name?

- Elliot. Hi.

- Yeah.

- It's a--

- I'm Amanda.

Hey, Amanda. I should've

asked you what your name--

- You photograph a lot of weddings?

- Yeah. I hate it.

I'm doing the thing again

with my hands. I'm sorry.

We are emotions

and emotions are us.

Again I can't separate

emotions.

When you consider that, um...

every aspect

of your digestion...

every sphincter

that opens and closes...

every group of cells that

come in for nourishment...

and then moves out to, um...

heal something

or repair something--

Those are all under the influence

of the molecules of emotion.

I mean,

it's this total buzz.

[ Man ]

So you ask if emotions are bad.

Emotions are not bad.

They're life.

They color the richness of our experience.

It's our addiction that's the problem.

The thing that most people

don't realize is that...

when they understand

that they are addicted to emotions--

- Another drink?

- [ Man ] it's notjust psychological.

It's biochemical.

Think about this.

Heroin uses the same receptor mechanisms

on the cells...

that our emotional

chemicals use.

It's easy to see then that

if we can be addicted to heroin...

then we can be addicted

to any neural peptide, any emotion.

- To the groom!

- To the groom.

Whoo!

- What's up, guys?

- What's up, man?

- Hello.

- What do we need?

- Some foxes.

- Who put out.

Yeah, baby!

Cheers.

So--

[ Woman ] The relevant search command

that's going on...

is related to finding

a certain emotional state.

I mean, we can't even

direct our eyes...

without having

an emotional aspect to it.

[ Dog Barks ]

[ Cow Moos ]

Oh. Oh, gosh.

She wouldn't fall for me.

Oh, mama! Whoo!

are you waitin'for?

Come on, ya little pussies!

Geez! I can't believe you guys!

What are you-- Ooh.! Come on. Come on.

Just get the hell out of the way.

[ Exhales ]

Hi there, honey!

Come on, baby.

You know you want it.

Oh, don't give me that look.

Now...

what about people

who are addicted to sex?

[ Male Cell Muttering ]

Whoa!

- Whew.!

- Hello there, big boy.

Is there a rocket in your pocket,

or are you just happy to see me?
