Exactly What It Says On the Tin
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 90247
|
The sign above the door says, "Alexander Adelbert, Discount
D.D.S./Certified CPA." It seems to be a small operation, which,
considering it's an office in a dollar store, is probably not altogether
unexpected. Since he has a few cavities that need filling, Josh enters.
The dentist has a light Austrian accent, which Josh finds interesting. "You have a number of cavities, which require cleaning and filling," Adelbert says. "First, however...would you like some anesthesia? We have several different varieties to choose from..." He indicates a shelf behind him. "As a safety precaution, your wrists and ankles will be tightly restrained during surgery..." The manacles click into place around Josh's risks a split second before he's even aware of them, just before the word "surgery" connects itself with the idea that in THIS dentist's office, anesthesia appears to be optional instead of mandatory. "Uh--surgery?" Josh squeaks. Adelbert nods. Josh experiences the first faint stirrings of panic when he takes in the anesthetic choices arrayed behind him on the display shelf: Hound's Blood, Chloroform, powdered lead, Skub, a clawhammer, and a variety of other substances or devices of completely questionable efficacy.
