Finally, Miranda agreed to go see a doctor. But Bonkers refused to take her to just any doctor. No sir. Bonkers took Miranda to see the top toon doctor in all Hollywood. The great Professor Ludwig VonDrake.
After looking her over, and seeing the strange morphings himself, the Professor agreed with Bonkers. "Oh, it's Bakshi Flu, alright," he told them. "No doubt about it. And luckily for you, young lady, I have a cure. There are, however, a couple of side effects you should know about."
"Side effects?" Miranda asked. "What kind of side effects?"
"Well, if you'll hush up for a second, I tell you. Silly girl." VonDrake paused to catch his breath. "The shot I'll have to give you will get rid of the darker symptoms of Bakshi Flu. However, for the next twenty-four hours, anything that can happen to a toon, can also happen to you. So, I'd avoid steamrollers if I were you."
"Wait just a minute," Miranda said. "You mean that if I take this cure of yours, I could wind up flattened... or frozen... or canned... or any of the many other things that have happened to Bonkers since we've been partners?"
"That is correct," the doctor told her. "But believe me, young lady, as uncomfortable as you may find that situation, the effects of Bakshi Flu can be much worse. So, should I prepare the injection?"
