A beautiful girl is lying on a gurney, about to undergo a minor surgery. She is wheeled into the corridor by a nurse, then left alone. While the nurse is away, Donster wearing a white coat approaches the girl, takes the sheets away and starts examining her naked body. He walks away and talks to Gunny who is also wearing a white coat. Gunny comes over and starts examining her. When Rommel, who is wearing a white coat too, begins to examine her body, the girl begins to grow impatient. "All of this examining is great, you guys are really thorough, "she says, But when will I be having my operation?" Donnie shrugs his shoulders, "Beats me, We're just painting the hall."
