Episode transcript

When I was a little particle I would drive my mother nuts! She could never really tell where I was or where I was going.
She’d leave me in my room, and I’d stay there for a brief moment. But then I’d start drifting in all directions, and soon I was all over the place. And I mean that literally: I had so much trouble deciding where to go, that it was like I was all around the house, playing with every toy we had. I myself couldn’t even tell where I was until my mother arrived. The moment she’d catch me, though, I knew exactly where I was… in trouble. The only way she could make me stay in the same place was to keep watching over me.
As I developed in size, I grew out of that phase: I know reasonably well where I am and where I am going. Though, sometimes, when facing hard choices, I still have trouble deciding… I still behave like when I was a little particle…
