From there, he went to meet Jesus, and he turned out to be the real reason people were getting healed. As years passed and he went to inspire many doctors to 'make' medicines he had already made from the start, he saw that there weren't many people getting sick and being in need of his medicine, and so he did something foul. He released several plague-ridden rats into the city of london, starting the bubonic plague. As of now, it's unaware if he's dead or not,but many theorise he left to travel the galaxy, helping people across the universe.


Music video

The music video for the song appeared on Doolittle's YouTube channel on 11 February 2011. In the video, Eliza comes to a restaurant, which is poised to play the music (her own) Go Home. As she leaves, the song "Mr. Medicine" starts to play and Eliza is followed by a monster. She is walking and singing on her way home. More and more monsters appear and start to dance. When Eliza comes home she slams the door behind her, locking the arm of one of the monsters. The monster gets the arm and walks away with the others, in a row.
