K PAX • 2001
Dr. Mark Powell:
Could you tell me a bit about your boyhood on K-PAX? Where were you born? You were, uh, born, right? K-Paxians have babies?Prot:Oh, yes. Much like on Earth, but unlike you humans, the reproductive process is, uh, quite unpleasant for us.Dr. Mark Powell:Could you compare the effect to something that I might understand. Like a toothache...?Prot:It's more like having your nuts in a vise, except we feel it all over. And to make matters worse, the sensation is associated with something like your nausea accompanied by a very bad smell. The moment of climax is like being kicked in the stomach and then falling into a pool of mot droppings.Dr. Mark Powell:Mot droppings?Prot:A mot is a being much like your skunk only far more potent.Dr. Mark Powell:Uh, if it's such a terrible experience, uh, how do you reproduce?Prot:As carefully as possible
