I see people as puzzles that I need to work out, and it's...
That's better than any sort of puzzle for me, do you know what I mean?

It's almost like I'm so in that zone.
Yeah, well, I didn't have the PhD then, but I was, yeah.
Yeah, you were on your way to having a PhD.
And again, when I look back on it, I can see how, like, I was, like, I did my master's thesis on a psychoanalytic interpretation of Harry Potter.
Like, that was literally, I loved Harry Potter books.
I could have read them, you know,
Watch those movies over and over and over again.
And so the guy came in and he said, if you're picking a master's thesis, pick something that you're passionate about, because you're going to have to read buckets and buckets and buckets of stuff about this.
And I was like, I can't do they were all describing loads of really bright, intelligent things.
And I was like, Harry Potter, what could I do with that?
And so and I never kind of felt part of the story.
There's always been, like, I remember this guy coming in who's teaching us and he said, like, psychoanalysts like foreign language film, cryptic crosswords.
