The idea of the dart gun as a the perfect non-lethal weapon died pretty quickly. A dart can cause major nerve damage in the wrong spot, or blindness, or trigger syncope with resultant falling injuries. The darts used on tasers have very small barbed tips and do not penetrate the skin. That’s why a coat can stop a taser dart from being effective.

The phrase ‘My only concern is safety’ coming from Dr Mel?
Hmmmm…

I remember the vaccine guns when I was in the service. They would warn you not to move. They used high pressure air and would cut you if you moved.

Doc Mel might want to adjust the pressure on his delivery system.

I’ll bet someone out there will seriously think this is a good idea.

“Dr.” Mel? Where were you in ’42?

Now, because it’s Dr. Mel showing this to Pam, would that constitute man-spleening??

I have a feeling there are going to be a few vaccine overdoses on the R. U. Sirius… ☺

I’ll bet that when it’s Dr. Mel’s turn, he’s gonna find out that karma can indeed be quite a girl dog…!

Winky’s spleen must have at least nine lives.

That’s a vaccinated spleen now, Winky. You’re welcome!

His spleen? Must be some heavy-duty darts coming out of that gun!
