Answer: D. Flying is the manifest content

Explanation: According to the Freudian theory, dreams which are dreamt by an individual could be said to contain both the hidden content of the dream, that is the LATENT content and the actual or literal composition of the dream as dreamt by the dreamer, which is the MANIFEST content. In the scenario above, the literal content of the dream itself, that is piloting or flying as dreamt by Rachel is the MANIFEST content. While the meaning of the dream as interpreted by the psychoanalyst to mean Rachael's hidden sexual desire is the LATENT content of the dream.
