* FakeOrgasm:
** In ThePilot, Dr. Masters covertly studies brothel worker Betty having sex with a john. While discussing the encounter afterwards, she mentions that the orgasm he recorded was faked for her customer's benefit. This inspires Masters to try to study sex in a more controlled laboratory environment, despite the legal hurdles.
** After Masters's study is kicked out of the hospital by the staff, he and Johnson return to the brothel to try to study sex there. One worker masturbates for them with a dildo while hooked up to an EKG machine, and when she makes an [[TheImmodestOrgasm Immodest Orgasm]] they can realize from the readout that it was fake. Like Betty earlier, she tells them it's part of the job.
