   so he went to a doctor. the doctor told him he’d better have his bad tooth pulled out and he agreed. he saw the doctor take out a big pier. he felt a little bit nervous
   but he had to obey the doctor. the doctor put the pier into his mouth and pulled his tooth with great strength. in the end the tooth was pulled out. but to his surprise, what the doctor pulled out was a good tooth but not the bad one.
