Dialogue In Emergency Surgery

“Uh… Alright, well I’m Ricky, not Doctor Ricky, because I’m not a doctor.That would be my father, Dr.James Kurling. Sadly, Dr. Kurling happened to go clubbing last night and happened to have a hangover this morning so he sent me in instead. Nobody has noticed yet, and I guess it’s too late now! “Um… what to say, what to say. Oh right! This is emergency open heart surgery, so we have to do it now, or fact is, your dead.I just want to let you know that I watch House, ER, and Scrubs all the time, so I know all about surgery. You shouldn’t be worried at all. Lets look at the check list here..Oh this might not work so well..Looks like there weren’t any human hearts to replace your failing one, so you get a chihuahua heart!Lucky you! I guess I should check to make sure all my instruments are here. Oh! scalpel! I know that one from House. Not sure about these other ones though..Oh well, who ever said learning on the job was a bad thing?
Before we start, the hospital ran out of anesthetic last night.”
