Shakespeare's
Macbeth is told by a vision that that no one born of a woman shall be able to harm him. When he boasts about this prophecy whilst fighting Macduff, Macduff declares that he was "from his mother's womb/Untimely ripp'd," that is, born by Caesarean, and not "born of a woman" in the strictest sense. Macbeth realizes too late that he misinterpreted the vision, and is dead before he can say "I've made a huge mistake."
But what is this clinic where the strip takes place, and why do they want to do fewer Caesarians?
