"Too bad we don't have more time, otherwise I'd love to try giving him a sex change..." the 'expert' standing in the main surgeon's spot sighed, sounding genuinely disappointed. "Okay, fine. Let's get started."

'Dude, you graduated like, forty years ago!' the others thought, suddenly very nervous.
