Jill: “What do you think it is that motivates us humans?”

Jack: “Oscar Wilde said, Everything in the world is about sex.”

Jill: “To which, he added, except sex.”

Jack: “ ... He did? ... So what is sex about?”

.   .   .

Jill: “Oscar said, Sex is power.”

Jack: “I don’t get it.”

Jill: “Try changing your aftershave.”

Jack: “ Haha, Smartypants, it's his meaning I don't get”

.   .   .

Jill: “I think he means, if you’re sexy you have what everybody wants. 

Ipso facto you have the power.”

Jack: “What’s wrong with my aftershave?”

Jill: “It’s a tad overpowering, don’t you think, Jack?”
