Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital was like hot pink nail polish.

Not, of course, in the sense that it was a hot pink quick-drying lacquer used on fingernails, but rather, because it was different. Unconventional, let's say.

Some hospitals were like a French manicure in that they were banal and boring in an everybody-does-it sort of way. All the doctors wore their lab coats, no misbehaviour, no one being caught making out in broom closets, no strange cases, nothing except, in a word, boring.

PPTH was exactly the opposite.

A drug addicted, misanthropic son-of-a-bitch diagnostician roamed the halls without a lab coat, catching his fellows making out in broom closets and having them assist him with a strange case by doing something that might or might not land them in jail.
