Series II, Cycle C
There was a Scotsman whose wife became ill. At first it did not seem like anything serious. However, as time went on she became worse with each passing day. When she got really sick she asked her husband if she could have some help. Could they get word to the doctor or could he go into town and at least get some medicine for her? Each time she asked her husband, he would tell her to wait a little longer to see if perhaps she would get better on her own. At the root of the problem was the fact that he just did not want to give up any of his precious money.
