Plot summary
After an injured conman is admitted to the hospital, a well-liked doctor is sacked from his job for apparently leering over a sunbathing nurse, when really the whole incident of his sacking was conspired by the universally detested Dr. Tinkle and his ghastly matron. The rebellious patients decide to exact revenge upon the doctor and matron for what they have done.
