What makes you the same person every day?

Adrian keeps making promises to be more patient, more present, and more understanding. He means every one of them. So why does he keep acting like a different person when the day gets difficult?

When his daughter points out the different versions of him she sees, Adrian starts wondering what really connects the person he is in the morning with the person he becomes by evening.

In Episode 17 of WHAT WOULD YOU TRUST?, Jonah Whitmore explores the changing self, consciousness, and the question of what makes us the same person across time.

We don't always feel the same. We don't always think clearly. And sometimes we look back at our own words and wonder why we said them.

Does that mean we've changed into someone else? Or is being a person more complicated than we like to admit?
