* WorstAid: Johnny's doctor fails to ask if he has any known drug allergies before administering the first dose of the serum. Indeed Dr. Kipling comes off as hilariously incompetent, dismissing Cathy's fears about Johnny so that he can go skiing, not informing her of Johnny's allergic reaction and in one scene, literally offering him a table full of pills to cure his "nightmares."
