Six months later, a lawyer walks by the clinic and notices there’s a sign outside that says “TREATMENT COST $20, IF WE CAN’T CURE YOU GET $100 BACK.” The lawyer thinks this is a great opportunity to earn $100 and goes to the clinic. The doctor comes right up to him as he enters.
Doctor: “What seem to be problem?”
Lawyer: “I’ve lost my sense of taste.”
Doctor: “Nurse, please bring medicine from Box 14 and put three drops on his tongue.”
She fetches the medicine and walks over to the lawyer.
Nurse: “Open your mouth nice and wide for me sir.”
When the drops of medicine hit his tongue, the lawyer coughs and sputters.
Lawyer: “That’s not medicine, it’s kerosene!”
Doctor: “Congrats, your taste restored. $20 please.”
Annoyed, the lawyer pays the doctor $20 and then leaves. Still determined to get the $100, he comes back a few days later and the doctor immediately recognizes him.
Doctor: “Back again?”
Lawyer: “I’m sorry, have we met before? You see, I’ve lost my memory.”
Doctor: “Nurse, please bring medicine from Box 14 and put three drops on his tongue.”
Nurse: “Open wide and say ahh for me.”
When the drops of medicine hit his tongue, the lawyer coughs and sputters.
Lawyer: “More kerosene? You gave me this last time for restoring my taste.”
Doctor: “Congrats, your memory back. $20 please.”
Fuming, the lawyer pays the doctor $20, and then leaves. More determined than ever, the lawyer waits a whole week this time before returning. The doctor recognizes him again.
Lawyer: “My eyesight has become very weak. I think I’m going blind.”
Doctor: “Sadly, I have no medicine for that, so I give you $100.”
The lawyer stares at the note.
Lawyer: “But this is $20, not $100!”
Doctor: “Congrats, your eyesight restored. $20 please.”
