The Operation
 
Played thru 3 times now trying to get the operatiom. I've gotten the 20g, but Docs usually dead by then. Is it even possible to get the operation?

nope. You getting captured is how the story goes.

... i used the cheat to find out if you could actually get the operation and the answer is no. The game would end right there. And you would be mutliated. Ew. I think the game is a lesson that some times you save up all your money to help you conform only to find out that it was a waste and you should have spent on things to make you more of what you already are, wow I just had a revelation.

What AM I , what is my nature, why am I saving up money?

If he can't get the operation, then what happens? I thought it was a life/death thing?

When Stranger said that he needed it to survive, he meant it as a metaphor. Steefs usually get shot down on sight, and Stranger gets shot at enough in his line of work...he doesn't need any more problems. So he asks the good doctor to graft the back of his hind legs to the front of his forelimbs *which, in reality, wouldn't work anyway, but neither would a high-pressured bounty cannon...* so he would have two legs and look fairly normal.

So, what did he do to look normal if he couldn't get the operation?

Truthfully, it would be impossable to fit a quadropedal torso into the frame of a biped. I don't care how compact the guy's hips (more than one pair of hips/one pair with four sockets?), what he did was anatomically unsound, unless breaking his bones was an option, which we all know it is not.

But hey, I bitch about Jurassic Park's raptors in the same way too...

Nothing. He looks like a freak and we laugh at him for it.
