This is what happens when TLC's "No Scrubs" meets Objectivist philosophy.

In a new episode of PBS Digital Studios' Blank on Blank series, novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand reveals her -- quite frankly terrifying -- manifesto on love and happiness.

"You love only those who deserve it," says Rand, in a resurfaced interview from 1959. "Man has free will. If a man wants love, he must correct his flaws and he may deserve it. But he cannot expect the unearned."

Yassss, Rand! Preach!
