The end of this GMod half life 1 scary map called "Mystic Radar", the ending sketch looks like that green karma dish in the beginning of Sub 8.

Learning how to prepare dissected organs so that you can observe them under a microscope is pretty neat.

Today's lesson: cutting rat liver, spleen, testicles and uterus (with embryos) into small pieces, putting the pieces into tiny boxes and putting the boxes into a machine that will replace all water in the tissues with paraffin.

Next lesson: Immersing the prepared bits of organs in paraffin and slicing them into ultra thin slices. Those slices will go onto glass slates and will be dyed.
