Perhaps it was irreverent of me, but I laughed out loud reading this part:
I do feel a lot better about the situation though, so I press it a few more times.

“Mr Lane, please stop pressing the morphine button.â€?

Despite the humorous undertone of this, I still get a sense of “Mr. Lane’s” horror at waking up somewhere else, in a hospital, no less.

hahahahaha, i agree exactly with ana christina.

For some reason this makes me think of the old H2G2 text computer game…

The same portion that Ana Cristina mentioned made me laugh as well. Simultaneously hilarious and jarringly displaced. I also love the disjointed, morphine-induced final line.

I’m with thebetweenspace, I love the last line and the whole thing.
