"What do you mean?"
"Why, when you was kidnapped," Johnny explained.
"I was kidnapped last night," replied the Doc.
"You—last night?" demanded Johnny, incredulously. "Well, I'm d—d! What did they get?"
"They got me."

"They stole th' Doc," explained Dave. "They was takin' him away just about th' time you looked in at me. They took him over to th' SV, to set Ol' Arnold's busted laig."
"What you talkin' about?" snorted Johnny, seating himself across from the Doc. "I never heard of a doctor bein' kidnapped to set a busted laig. What am I supposed to say? I'll bite, if it does cost me th' drinks."
"No, Nelson, that's the truth," earnestly asserted the Doc, and he told the story over again.
