    Hope one of them will still get the discount when Bleeb starts the Tug—of Tooth early by banging his cymbals.

    After the crash of the symbols and they start to run, put your foot on the line and get them both. A 2fer!

    Good to see Bleeb joining in on the fun.

    The string is really a bungee. That dentist is such a prankster.

    I kind of like the “kill two birds with one stone” aspect of the plan. And who knows? If these two know each other, maybe even three? But to really make it fair, you have to give her a fraction of a second head start. Here’s why. I assume that he is heavier than is she. Thus, at any given velocity, he is generating substantially more force than is she. So give her a brief (cause it has to end quickly indoors) time advantage to get moving faster and generate more force in her favor.

    When the string tightens it will yank their heads around. Then they can visit his brother the chiropractor for their whiplash…

    It’s cute that Bleeb has cymbals as well.

    My luck I would end up with whip lash, a sore tooth and still having to pay 100%.

    Ah, my father’s form of dentistry! Where are the pliers in case the string doesn’t work?

    The cymbals part is a brilliant piece of comedic spice!

    Alternatively, run in circles around the doctor. Not so clever now, huh doc?

    It looks to me as if the right-hand end of the string is not attached to the right-hand patient’s tooth, but to the crotch of the cymbal player. That’s gotta hurt!
