Henderson Mayfield: Hoot Snatcher

Henderson Mayfield: Hoot Snatcher
(An operating room. A patient wakes up screaming in the middle of surgery and a quick thinking nurse must put him back under with gas.)

Surgeon: Hmm. Looks like our patient was shortchanged on his anesthesia. Who's the anesthesiologist?

Nurse: Mayfield.

Surgeon: Mayfield! What are you doing!

Mayfield: (Crawling on the floor) Aw, like don't disturb me, all right? Because the gravity over here is really weak and I need to hang on to these tiles...

Voice: His gentle bedside manner won their trust.

(Another operation. Mayfield prepares an elderly patient for surgery.)

Mayfield: There is nothing to fear. Just close your eyes and subtract the fluffy little sheep as they hop over the fence and out of sight. Starting at a hundred. Ready?

Patient: I think so.

(Mayfield starts to put the patient under with gas. The patient mumbles with his mouth covered.)

Mayfield: (Lifting mouthpiece) What's that?

Patient: I was doing what you said: 'ninety-nine, ninety-eight, ninety-seven...'

Mayfield: You mean you made it to ninety-seven and you can still count? I better check this. (Greedily gulping the gas) Ninety-two, ninety-eight, four hundred and twelve...

Voice: His girlfriend was a knockout.

(A candlelight dinner at home.)

Woman: Now you know my conditions. No funny stuff until we're engaged.

Mayfield: (Raising wine glass) To us. (They bump glasses and drink. Immediately the woman loses consciousness and slumps forward.) Now, darling, don't tease me. You know how irresistible I find you in a drug induced coma. (Undressing her) I said, stop it! You're asking for this!

Voice: There's no telling just how low a hoot snatcher will go. You'll have to find out for yourself with Henderson Mayfield: Hoot Snatcher tonight.
