    Klausner believed that there are many odd inaudible sounds that cannot be perceived by humans. In order to prove his hypothesis, he invented a sound machine through which he could actually hear the sounds that arose from plants, when they were being cut. He even requested Mrs. Saunders to cut another yellow rose so that he could confirm himself that he indeed could hear the sounds of the plants. He again experimented on his theory with some daisies and heard a piercing shriek come from the machine. He kept on inflicting pain on the plants, despite regretting all his actions, just to prove himself, and also the doctor, that he could indeed hear the sounds coming from the plants.
