Patches and Mendy



Patches and Mendy are NPCs that can be encountered in a unique room in the Gungeon. They will completely heal the player unless you are playing as The Robot, in which case they will give you either one Junk, the Bottle, or one piece of Armor.

When at full health

 * [Patches] "Yes, yes, you seem to be fine. Hm, unfortunate."
 * [Mendy] "You're perfectly healthy? Are you sure?"

When not at full health

 * [Patches] "Hm. Yes. This is bad. We'll have to operate."
 * [Mendy] "Oh, my. Looks like you'll need treatment, definitely."

After accepting an offer of healing

 * [Mendy] "Now, if you'll stand over here..."

Immediately after being healed

 * [Mendy] "Bwa ha! It DID work! Take that, HM Academy!"

After having been healed

 * [Patches] "I'd say that the operation was a smashing success."
 * [Mendy] "That was our last bottle of... health... serum."
 * [Mendy] "We don't have any more medicine in stock."

When speaking to the Robot

 * [Patches] "We're heart specialists... We can only operate on things that have hearts!"
 * [Mendy] "Hm... a rare case... I've got it! This will definitely help you."
 * [Mendy] "Um. Have a nice day. Robot... unit."

Trivia

 * The method of healing employed by the nurses is a reference to Legend of Zelda series, in which the player can heal themselves using bottled fairies.
 * Patches appears to be wearing a clown nose, which may be a reference to the real life doctor, Patch Adams.
