Solution

The men who disliked the moan from inside the surgical room of the dentist made different interpretations. One man claimed that he would ask for gas to dull the pain of tooth extraction. But another man alarmed him saying he knew someone who never recovered from the effect of the gas. Two men left the waiting room because it was getting late for their offices. The first patient’s wife was very upset. She cried and tried to go to the surgical room to see if her husband Joe was okay.
