With today's panel, the good Doctor Blog has already completed his usual trifecta of poor doctoring for the year: malpractice, unconscionably high pricing, and long wait times. Given the poor service and outrageous fees, I'm not really sure why Leroy would be so disappointed in his delay. Although, I guess if there's one thing worse than expensive, sub-par medical service, it's waiting for expensive, sub-par medical service. I'm also fascinated by the framing of the shot. It's definitely a bold aesthetic choice to have the center of the scene be the back of some stranger's head and have the Lockhorns' shifted off to the side; not sure what the purpose is though, yet. Also, I'm fairly sure the patron on the right and the nurse are twins. It's a push.
