"Do you like to watch people being abused and assaulted, Mr. Garner?" Dr. Imelda asked him as she cued a video on her computer.
"Sure! Got any popcorn?!" Garner sneered.
The video was from an overhead security camera behind a night club where a woman was being attacked by two men. The footage was real and disturbing. One man was choking the victim from behind while the other tore at her clothes from a frontal position.
"Damn! I wish there was sound!" Garner cynically complained as he watched the horrendous progress of the rape with relish.
But unbeknownst to him, messages had been inserted into the video footage that were being received by his unconscious mind. The first one was "FEAR".
The second was "IMPOTENCE". The third was "PAIN".
Dr. Imelda removed another object from her briefcase and moved to a position behind Garner as he continued to take in the rape show with fascination. She began to strap the piece of "equipment" to her body as she questioned him using a different subliminal word in each of her interrogatives.
"Do you remember the fear you felt the first time you were attacked?" she started.
Garner only laughed.
"You wanted to see that same fear in the eyes of all of your victims, didn't you." she continued as she cinched the last strap that attached her newest therapeutic tool to her body.
"Do you remember the pain you felt as your body was invaded and used as if it were nothing, as if you were nothing?" she said, staring down at the back of his head.
"You know, they could have done a better job with the lighting." Garner quipped without taking his eyes off the screen.
"Do you remember how powerless you felt?" she continued as she put her foot to his back and kicked him forward off the bench to a kneeling position face down on the floor. Garner was surprised but recovered his arrogance quickly.
"Is this were it gets rough, Doc? You know how that turns me on." he scoffed from this awkward, arms between his legs position.
She walked around and stood directly over him where he was able to look up and see her and the strap-on dildo that was now projecting fiercely from her crotch.
"Are we feeling vulnerable yet?" she queried.
"Oh I see, another woman who wishes she was born with a dick! Poor little dickless girl!" he blurted mockingly.
Dr. Imelda felt a bolt of rage shoot through her with this comment, but she quickly regained her composure. She squatted down in front of him and pulled his head up by his hair. Her dildo was now staring him in the face.
"Why don't you suck on this!" she said as she pushed the plastic phallus up to his mouth.
"Were you going to say something?" she asked.
Garner's eyes were blazing up at her now, but his mouth stayed shut.
"I'm waiting." she said as she continued to goad him, "Cat got your tongue?"
She held Garner silent in this position for a few more minutes and then released his hair and stood up. She then released the contents of her bladder onto his head in a hot deluge.
"Okay I think we've made good progress for one day." she said as she unstrapped herself and began to put her clothes back on.
Garner continued to lay there motionless, his breathing now quite audible.
"I'll see you again on Thursday." she said as she gathered her laptop and briefcase and headed out the door.
After she left, Garner lay there and entertained thoughts of rape and murder, but then strange feelings began to flash in his mind that hadn't been there before. He thought he perceived a faint, rising sadness from deep inside himself. His mind became troubled momentarily, but the re-entrance of the guard brought him back to reality.
After several more sessions Dr. Imelda came to the opinion that Garner was sufficiently "warmed up" and suggestible enough to continue on to the next stage in her treatment plan. On this day she entered and was met with no initial verbal abuse which she noted. The subliminal videos and forced prostration and humiliation had made inroads into the hateful, thwarted ego of the patient. He seemed markedly more compliant although only somewhat less hostile.
"Today we'll be exploring a deeper issue." she stated as she walked around the desk and leaned back on it.
"Wow, sounds like fun." Garner replied flatly.
"I call it 'ass fascination'." she continued.
"Yeah, I know all about that." he retorted only slightly less flatly.
"Yes, I know you do. So let's get started."
She proceeded to unbutton her blouse and unzip her skirt. Then she slipped out of her shoes and circled behind him.
"What comes to mind when you think of a woman's ass?" she queried.
Garner took some time to reply, wanting to come up with the right answer.
"Sex." he finally said.
"Okay, what else?"
