Jake takes a job as an orderly in a prison hospital. On his first day, he meets an old friend, Mike, also working in the infirmary. Mike says to Jake~~Do you see that guy over there in bed #8? Jake~~Yeah. Mike~~I think he’s trying to _escape!_ Jake~~How so? Mike~~This week, he’s had his tonsils remove, his adnoids, removed, & his appendix taken out. Jake~~And…?😕 Mike~~ I think he’s sneaking out piecemeal. Thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all week! 😃 ---
