Bryan's vulnerable point

Just as Bryan is about to start to tickle you, you remember that his barefeet are just as ticklish as yours. Can you use this fact to escape more tickling? You think you can.

You remember hypnotizing Bryan once as part of a school project for a psychology class. When you brought him out from under, you left him with a posthypnotic suggestion. Will it still work?

It can't hurt to try, you think as you see Bryan reaching for your bare feet. "Oh, man, they tickled my tootsies real bad," you say.

Bryan freezes. Maybe it's working. "Are my toes still wiggling? I don't think my tootsies could have taken any more of their tickle-torture," you continue.

It really does seem to be working. Bryan's eyes reluctantly move away from your feet to stare at his own. Well, here goes, you think to yourself. "I never knew I had such ticklish tootsies, dude."

The suggestion still works. The word "tootsie" or "tootsies" twice sends Bryan into a trance, and the phrase "ticklish tootsies" makes him feel an irresistible urge to get barefoot, as you demonstrated by making him take off his shoes and socks in class and not be able to explain why. Bryan still can't resist the impulse, and before you know it you're staring at his bare feet.

So far so good, but then you realize something. You know that if you talk about a certain part of the foot, he'll feel an overwhelming tickling sensation and start laughing helplessly. But you can't remember which part of the foot it was! Was it the ball of the foot, the toes, the outside edges, or the top of the foot? If you say the wrong part, you might lose control of him. But you have to act quickly - he's staring at your feet again and his eyes are glowing. What do you say?
