In this short scene, Shylock complains to his servant, Atsuya, that he wants to be able to kiss her, but that he is not really in love with her. He asks her to stay with him for the night, but she refuses, saying that she does not want to start hating him. He tells her that she is the one who is "suffering the most," and that she must be doing something to make him hate her. Shylock asks her if she would like to help him, and she says that she would, if she could help him. She asks him if he would like her to kiss him too, but he says that he would love her too if she were not emitting pheromones. She wonders if she should go to college and keep him away from her, or if he should return to his "besides"
