Quote from Blanche in Like the Beep Beep Beep of the Tom-Tom
Dr. Stein: Well, nothing will go wrong. I've done this a hundred times. You'll be fine in a week. All we do is cut a small incision below the collarbone, make a little pocket for the pacemaker under the muscle, then feed a tiny wire through the vein and into the heart. Then the pacemaker gives little electric shocks to the valve which regulates the heartbeat. Blanche: You mean you're gonna cut into me? Dr. Stein: You did know that. Blanche: Won't that leave a scar? Dr. Stein: Two inches, tops. Blanche: Oh, I'm sorry, but I can't have any scars. See, my clothes are all off-the-shoulder. Sooner or later.
