Did you guys hear the

news about dad's subway?

Uh, yeah.

It's weird.

I got all the presents,

and i've gotta rush.

Okay.

Bye.

Did dad call?

He sent me a text.

He's not gonna make it.

You know your dad means well.

You know he's trying, right?

He always tries,

but he never does.

Before dinner?

Well?

[Sucks in air] okay.

Just take a seat.

Excuse me.

You with transit authority?

Yeah. Hi.

Jason. Jason cole. Doctor stella.

This way.

The emt said he died...

From contact

with the third rail.

What's your professional

opinion on that?

Technically, yes.

What do you mean

by technically?

Well, five years in the er.

I've seen every kind of

gross there is, but this...

Is that jimmy?

I'm sorry.

[Panting]

Why is he opened up like that?

And what are those, what's

that crap inside of his body?

Insect eggs.

Insect eggs?

Some insects, such as spiders,

Plant their eggs

in a foreign host.

And he had a bite

to his lower left shin.

We removed these

from his abdomen.

You mind if i take

these to city health?

Be my guest. It saves

me the paperwork.

Thanks, doc.

going on down there.

Yeah, i'm gonna take the heat.

Alright, i'll see you
