New Exactly.
Some people are talking at a party about how this one other guy is a walking intelligence test, that he'd be perfect if aliens were somehow trying to figure out who the smartest people in society were. He keeps throwing out these wild ideas to get people talking - but every once in a while, there's a bum idea, such as chocolate coated manhole covers. They leave the party, then find themseleves alone on an alien planet with a chocolate coated manhole cover. Discussion ensues about horse breeding as applied to humans.
When somebody asks you to trade your freedoms for security, it isn't your security they're talking about.
