Why is it that speed-reading is considered a common thing, something that we do every day without even reflecting over it - but "speed-watching" (watching things at double the speed) divides into two camps - upset or obsessed? And how does what we watch affect us in the real world away from the screen? Why do people drive even faster having watched a Fast and the Furious Premiere?

Micael meets with the journalist Jeff Guo and goes to Boston to talk to the associate professor Jena Anupam at Harvard Medical School.
