Arch and Mable stormed into the dentists office and marched directly to the receptionist's desk.

Arch smacked his fist down and bellowed, "I demand to see the dentist and I demand to see him now!!!"

"Is there an emergency?" asked the receptionist.

Arch raised his voice even louder, "I demand to see a dentist this very moment!!! I want a tooth pulled now, this very instant!!!"

"Of course, sir," she responded, "but it'll take a few minutes for the Novocain to take effect."

"No Novocain," said Arch. "Ain't got the time. Just pull the tooth and pull it now!!! I don't care about the pain!!"

Impressed with this display of courage, the receptionist responded, "The dentist is in here, sir. Come on in and show him which tooth it is."

"Come here Mable," said Arch. "Show him your tooth."
