As the doctors are getting her ready to give birth, one of them informs the man that a machine that transfers some of the pain of birth from the mother to the father had been developed. They ask the man if he would want to take on some of the pain to make his wife's burden easier.
The man agrees, so they lay him down in a bed next to his wife. The doctors tell the man that some fathers have died if the pain is cranked up too high, so the man opts to start at 10%. His wife lets out a small sigh of relief, but the man doesn't look any different. He tells the doctors that he doesn't feel any pain.
A little shocked, the doctors decide to turn it up to 20%. Still, the man says he feels normal. They set it to 30%, 60%, 80%, 100%, and still the man says that he doesn't feel anything. Puzzled, the doctors just leave it at 100% and assist the man's now-tranquil wife.
After the woman gives birth to a baby boy, the doctors congratulate the man for being so resistant to pain. When the couple gets home, they find the mailman dead on the doorstep.
