The correct answer is superego.

According to Freud, our personality is comprised of three parts: the id, ego and the superego. The superego refers to a part of our personality that represents our conscience and suppresses desires or urges that are inappropriate or unacceptable. In Greg's instance, his superego effectively enabled him to suppress his hunger urge and wait till the lecture ended, since doing so is more socially acceptable and honorable behavior rather than giving into his urge and leaving the lecture hall to satisfy his hunger.
