Music video[]

The cartoon music video for "Help Me Dr. Dick" was directed by Zoran Bihac.^[1] It starts out with a pink-haired nurse holding a poster of various breast-like images in front of a blonde-haired female patient, who gets insulted. Later, a doctor called Dr. Dick is seen walking through a room full of beds, alongside two pink-haired nurses and behind of a dancing briefcase. Dr. Dick is seen performing surgery on a woman and a man, fixing their face and ears, respectively. Later, Dr. Dick hears a screaming call - 'Help!' - via his stethoscope and from a city, and decides to travel through the desert to find the women. Dr. Dick breaks into a room and realizes that a man kidnapped and tied up the blonde-haired women seen earlier. Dr. Dick later transforms his deck of cards into an antibiotic needle full of anesthesia and then uses it on the man in order to make him fall asleep, and precedes to kiss the blonde-haired women. Dr. Dick is later seen helping various women with their tragedies, and is later seen performing surgery once more on two men. Dr. Dick hears another call - 'Help!' - via his stethoscope, coming from an island with an active volcano and steps on top of fish in the ocean in order to save the blonde haired women. Dr. Dick breaks into a room and finds out that a green squid kidnapped the blonde-haired women, and transforms his briefcase into a deck of cards and into an X-Acto knife to slice the green squid apart and save the blonde-haired women, whom he too kisses. Dr. Dick is seen more helping various women, and uses his head mirror to see through the outfits of the pink-haired nurses, whom he is dancing with. Dr. Dick is finally seen in space where he once more hears a call - 'Help!' - via his stethoscope, this time coming from a green spaceship. Dr. Dick then breaks into the green spaceship and transforms his briefcase into a deck of cards and then a ray-gun, which he uses on the red robot who kidnapped the blonde haired women, turning the robot into four smaller wind-up toys, each tapping their respective cymbals, and later kisses her. The video ends with Dr. Dick removing the blonde-haired women's oxygen mask and her waking up after surgery - and realizing that Dr. Dick had performed the wrong surgery on her and a man beside her, making them both pass out.
