The mouse sported a human ear squarely on its back -- a
successful experiment in tissue growth. Phillips admired
his work. The cartilage was fully formed and properly
shaped, all having grown from a few implanted cells.
Back at his desk, Phillips got comfortable and dozed --

purple with rage. Student assistants tittered as he
stomped into Kransky's office, slamming the door.
"Say," smirked Kransky, "Is that a mouse growing on your
ear?"
"Shut up and give me a scalpel," growled Phillips.
