If someone came up to me with a box with a button in it I'd probably just quickly press it before he said anything, ruining his experiment.

but if i press the button, the train runs over the man on the other track, who is also the doctor responsible for the expensive cancer drug that my wife needs, and also has a 50/50 chance of being killed by the hydrocyanic acid

There was also a movie seemingly based on that episode, and also a RT short video parodying the movie (which is good) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBNOXYlYswA

You know he's the villain, because he's got shifty eyes.
i would punch the man and steal the one button magic box to sell it to apple for royalties. apple would then rebrand it 'iBox' and we'd make billions. then i could get far more than 20 computers, op
