Unpaid internships are barely a step above slavery.

Also I note she doesn't even say what it's an internship for. You should be willing to do stuff you don't like for the money to make ends meet, if necessary, but if you're not getting paid, that kind of changes things.

Rex is a pretty stand-up dude.
True: usually a Rex Morgan, MD storyline just has a former patient or an employee or some random acquaintance show up, present some kind of half-assed problem that more or less resolves itself without Rex needing to do anything particularly special, and concludes with him receiving some absurd windfall like a bass boat or a free apartment in San Diego. It's nice to see Rex giving back a little this time around.

Then again, Buck did say, "I'm going to pay you back with interest!", so that probably means Rex will be getting that money back, plus a helicopter or his-and-hers matching Rolexes or a summer home in the south of France or something.

This is not a good comic. It is something of an enigma, actually. It has this cool Krazy Kat throwback style, and the art can be really interesting, like the panel work today and the Jeff Smith tribute in the title, but it's almost as if the writing is actively competing against it to make the strip as bland as possible.

Unpaid internships are a cruel joke and only worth it if you're an upper middle class white kid with parents that can afford to keep you fed and sheltered while you work.

So... actually, Dustin is one of the few people it would probably work for, but He Is Lazy, just like all those other people who AREN'T upper middle class white kids.

That's not a low blow, that's a headbutt, and since the ref didn't penalize him for one point, he gets away with it scot-free.

She's a nurse practitioner, which means she can do things like diagnose illnesses and write prescriptions, as well as making referrals and ordering tests and treatments. It's not as comprehensive as a full MD's education, but it covers a large amount of the basic healthcare most people end up needing.

(And anyway, anyone can wear a lab coat if they want to. They're not magical, they're just coats. ;))

A bolo is a kind of thin tie, and... okay, no, BOLO = Be On The LookOut, otherwise known as an all-points bulletin. Basically, telling everyone in the area the description of the suspect and asking for people to keep an eye out.
