How to Arrive at Understanding

ethicist: Locked in a room together! This is immoral!
moral psychologist: Those damn small group psychologists.
ethicist: Well, it’s unfortunate, but now you can’t study me. I have no choice, so I have no way to offer consent.
moral psychologist: It’s good you volunteered that. But can’t you choose to consent anyway?
ethicist: Stop it, you’re studying me!
moral psychologist: I mean, we both know the situation. Do you feel more is necessary?
ethicist: I said stop it!
