What\'s your pleasure?

You have three options for the evening.

1. You could watch some sitcoms on TV that you are certain to enjoy and that will provide you with a pleasure rating of 4.

2. You could go to a movie that is supposed to be good. You would enjoy the movie with probability 0.5; if you enjoy it, it will provide you with a relative pleasure rating of 11, but if you don\'t enjoy it, it will provide you with a negative rating of -2.

3. You could go on a date. With probability 0.3 you will experience a pleasure rating of 21, and a probability of 0.7 the date will provide a negative rating of -2.
