They're sentenced to death. Not that their "crime" was all that severe, but the ruler just got a sweet deal on a second-hand electric chair, and he's itching to give it a go.

The scientist is the first up to the chair. He takes one look and tells the locals, "this thing won't hurt me. I'll bet I can't even feel it."

Well, they strap him in, throw the switch, and…. nothing. The locals are amazed, so they let him go figuring he's a wizard or something.

Next up is the mathematician. She doesn't know how the scientist made it through without a scratch but figures she'll do the same. She announces, "hahaha! This thing won't hurt me. I won't even be able to feel it."

They strap her in, throw the switch, and…. nada. They let her go, too.

Then it's more sex until late at night. I catch some much-needed sleep, and then the next day, it starts all over again."
