The woman at the well was a real loser by society's standards.  Her equivalent today wouldn't be an adulterous woman.  It would be closer to a gay, transgender, illegal alien that didn't speak English.  She had multiple strikes against her.  She was a woman.  She was divorced.  She was an adulterer.  She was a Samaritan. At minute marker 2:09 Jesus tells the woman that the water He gives will become a spring of water inside welling up to eternal life.  She responds by asking Him to prove it.  Look at her reaction to Him just after minute marker 2:30, before she laughs.  She knows He has something different.  Then she tries to laugh it off.  Then her intuitive thoughts take over.  Her prejudice comes out.  She has all of these preconceived ideas pushing away the brief conviction she had.  At minute marker 5:40 He drives it home.  He didn't go to the well for a drink of water.  He went to the well for her.
