Don’t Push the Red Button

There’s a scene in "Men in Black II" where Agent J (Will Smith) tells Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones), “Don’t push the red button.” Of course, he does. The car he’s driving suddenly transforms into one that flies, and the steering wheel is replaced by an unfamiliar object that looks like a Playstation controller. When K asks what it is, J responds, “Didn’t your mom ever buy you a Playstation?” To which K replies, “A what?” For some reason, I identify strongly with K in that scene.
