“Why are you thanking me?”
The man opened the door of the car’s backseat and got in. “If you want to show your gratitude, I would appreciate some homemade pierogis tonight.”

So, he misrepresented the situation to the hospital and claimed that Cherise had devised his surgical plan. He requested to perform the surgery without Cherise’s knowledge.
