Beneatha: They talk so much about “test” these days. I wake up, I hear the word “test”, I dream “test” all night long (click) , and I wake up with the test ringing in my ears! Dr. E you’re Dr. Testbuster, aren’t you? You’re the one and the only Dr. Testbuster! Can’t you do something about it? The entire globe will owe you much if you do!
Dr. E: Your nightmare about the test is correct! I’m wondering if you might have been dreaming about the USMLE test though! Irrespective, I would love nothing more than seeing eradication of the USMLE and COMLEX exams for American medical students and COVID-19 virus for the humanity! Also, remember that I am specialized in busting the medical board tests and not the COVID’s! But wait a minute—maybe you say this because you believe that I’m the master of busting upcoming COVID-related questions on the USMLE and COMLEX exams!
Beneatha: Actually, I did!
Dr. E: Did I ever tell you that you are my most favorite protégée? Well, aren’t you happy hearing it firsthand from me!
Beneatha: You’ve always been like a godfather to me!
