Philip A.Surgeon in the family
Bob is in dire need of a quadruple bypass. At the last minute he changes his cardiologist, asking instead to be operated by Daniel, his son-in-law, who happens to also be a heart surgeon.
Surprised (he didn't know that his father-in-law respected him that much), and flattered, Daniel sees the patient right before the operation.
As he comes smiling to the sick bed, Daniel is greeted by a stern look. Before he can open his mouth, Bob tells him:
"Don't you put any grand airs around you, loser. I don't think any better of you today than I did last year or the day you met my daughter. But I want to make sure you clearly understand one thing: if ANYTHING happens to me during the operation, your mother-in-law will come and live with you and Elsie..."
