"Tonto! Ride into town and get the doctor!"

"Yes Kemosabi." Tonto rode as fast as he could and got to the doctor. "Lone Ranger bit on tallywhacker by rattlesnake. Want know what to do."

"Tonto, the only way to save him is to get right back there and suck out all of the venom and spit it away. You must get all of it."

"Tonto understand." He rode back as quickly as he could and jumped off of his horse.

"What did the doctor say, Tonto?"

"Doctor say you gonna die."
