Knock ovvero il trionfo della medicina (1951)
Il dottor Knock arriva in un tranquillo villaggio per sostituire il dottor Parpalaid che non gli ha confessato che in paese nessuno ha davvero bisogno di cure.Per poter lavorare, il nuovo dottore, che non ha la laurea in medicina, cambia prospettiva affermando che "ogni uomo in buona salute è in realtà un malato che è stato trascurato". Di conseguenza la sala d'attesa si riempie velocemente per le consultazioni gratuite del lunedì. Ogni paziente riceve dal dottor Knock spiegazioni dettagliate sulla propria malattia, nonché una prescrizione precisa. L'unico albergo del villaggio viene rapidamente trasformato in una clinica e anche il dottor Parpalaid, momentaneamente tornato in visita e a sua volta preoccupato per la propria salute, viene convinto da Knock di essere malato e dover mettersi a letto.
