The scene opens with a young woman, in a white lab coat, standing before a panel of scientists. She nervously explains a controversial experiment she wishes to conduct involving her step-daughter's virginity. The room is tense as they debate the ethics of such a study.
Cut to the step-daughter, who is oblivious to the discussion taking place. She's at home, preparing dinner for her family. Her step-father arrives early and catches her off guard. He begins flirting with her, telling her how beautiful she's becoming. She blushes, unsure of how to respond.
That evening, after everyone has eaten, the step-father finds an excuse to be alone with his step-daughter. He confesses his feelings for her and expresses a desire to be involved in her 'experiment.' She's hesitant but ultimately agrees, hoping it will help her understand her own feelings better.
