Hypnotize her

"Tay," I asked. "Would it be okay if I hypnotized you? Just for fun?"

"Sure," Taylor said. "I've been dying to see your act."

She sat on the sofa, and I swung my pocket watch in front of her.

"Free your mind," I told her. "And...sleep."

Taylor fell asleep, her head against a pillow as her body leaned to the side.

I had done it. Taylor was now hypnotized, under my command.

Or was she? Some people were just too mentally strong to go under.

"Taylor, are you faking your trance right now?"
