Dr. Walter Stein was a mad scientist. He would freely admit the fact, since he met all of the qualifications you'd see in any movie or comic book: brilliantly and erratically intelligent, prone to building amazing creations that defied the known laws of physics, interesting hairdo. His latest invention was a shrinking ray. He had worked nearly all the bugs out of it but was still trying to figure out a practical application for it, especially since he hadn't gotten around to making the enlarging ray yet. One day he and his lab assistant Fred were fine-tuning the aiming mechanism when the device stopped working. Walter rummaged around near the target area and realized the power cord had been hit by the ray and shrunk enough to come out of the wall socket. He got a replacement cord and as he was plugging it in he realized that he had forgotten to turn the ray off! In a matter of seconds Dr. Walter Stein was a mere six inches tall!

He called out to Fred but his tiny piping voice didn't carry far. Eventually Fred came in and noticed the ray was still firing so he shut it off. That was when he saw his boss there on the pad, frantically waving his arms. Fred rescued him and they set to work on designing the enlarging ray. Walter would write out the design on a fragment of paper and Fred would use a magnifying glass to read them and transfer them to a full-size plan to begin building it. 

Walter did fine with his regular bodily requirements, as even the smallest crumb of food was a banquet and a drop of water could last most of the day. But he began having other physical urges that he could not satisfy. He confided in Fred that he would like the company of a woman but due to his size he would not be able to find proper relief. They hatched a scheme: Fred would go and hire some prostitutes, bring them to the lab and activate the ray again so Walter would have some company. Once the enlarger was working they would be returned to normal. So Fred set out to the "right" part of town to find a couple of candidates.

He found two girls who were young and attractive and offered them double their usual rate to come to a party at his "house". They agreed and came over at the appointed time. But when Fred led them into the laboratory, with all of the weird machinery and odd smells they became suspicious. When he tried to force them onto the ray's target area they fought back and bolted from the laboratory. Walter remained unsatisfied, which proves the notion that you can lead the whores to Walter but you can't make them shrink.
