Oh, Daniel.
Eh?
Have the rent you owe us, Daniel?
Eh? Five shillings you owe us now.
Do you have the money?
Ah, he's worth more to us dead.
Do you remember them days
in the war, Broom? And the militia?
Hospital orderlies Fallon and Broom, eh?
God, how I loved them days.
Hey, do you remember the boys
they brought in from the field
with their arms
and their legs shot away, huh?
Holes in their stomachs
the size of the moon.
Them surgeons
were kind, clever men, eh?
Wait, Fallon, wait. Wait, wait.
Put them out of their misery, Mr. Fallon,
That's what the major said to me.
For God's sake, Fallon, wait.
Let's take, let's take.
There's nothing we can do for these poor
boys, except save them from further pain.
That's what the surgeon said.
And here's Daniel,
all alone in the world.
Huh? Not a soul...
...and this terrible coughing.
It's an act of kindness
we're doing him, Broom.
Is he dead?
You better try him.
- He's dead.
- And fresh, Broom.
Fresh as new moon hay.
Come on, open up, eh?
Come on, come on.
Come in. Walk quiet.
No, walk quiet, Broom, eh?
Oh, it's a blessing
we've given him, huh?
And he's fresh, Fallon.
Pay them.
Seven.
- Who are they, Tom?
- Uh, this one's...
- I'm Robert Fallon, sir.
- Broom, sir.
This is the best material
I've had in years.
Son of God, hear me.
Deliver from evil my brother Thomas.
Deliver him from evil company.
Help him to heal with hands
in God's service
and let not those hands
be used in foulness,
for the sake of what the Devil
has made him think is progress.
Thank you for coming.
that it was Herophilos
who first traced the arachnoid membrane
into the ventricles of the brain.
What is known, however,
and what I have told you
repeatedly in these lectures...
And so, gentlemen, once again,
I am forced to apologize.
As you know, I've long since passed my quota
of subjects delivered by the hangman.
And so, today we will have
to make do with the carcass of a sheep.
Frederick.
- Sir?
- Identify.
- Kidney, sir.
Function?
To separate from the blood
certain impure materials,
which when dissolved in a quantity of water,
also separated by the kidneys
from the blood,
constitute the urine
in the human organism.
Excellent.
Except for one minor detail...
not in the human organism,
but in the organism of the...
' Sheep!
Laughter)
Let us now, gentlemen, reaffirm our creed.
The study of anatomy is absolutely vital...
And, of course, sir, he said
they were the kidneys of a sheep.
A sheep?
How dare he?
He makes a laughingstock
of the whole medical profession.
He's a pernicious influence, pernicious.
