a: Broca's area ~
b: play's director

What:

"A study conducted at Johns Hopkins using recordings from the brain surface shows Broca's area is active early in the process of forming sentences and ends its work before a word is spoken. Scientists have theorized that Broca's area is like a play's director, controlling how an actor pronounces each line. But the research published in PNAS suggests Broca's area is writing the script -- organizing the string of sounds that express the playwright's ideas."
