Organs are only viable for so long. You can't really keep them for future transplants. It doesn't work that way. At least not realistically.
[A nod back to the reality at hand, he picks up the gloves and puts them on and they strain against his hands. He's got pretty large fingers and wrists, definitely not the kind that should be stuffed into a size medium or what might be comfortable for Eddie.
Barry wasn't a combat nurse, he wasn't even close but he'd seen injuries in the field and he'd had to do botch medicine to keep people alive, sometimes himself. So, his skills were hackney at best.
He smiles as Eddie proclaims himself a registered nurse, references the right anatomy. Calls him dude. It's all a little surreal.]
I'm a former soldier. I've seen a lot worse than an exploding heart.
[He'd done a lot worse too, but all the same he takes the scalpel and snips the artery apart. The heart does, in fact, start laboring, working overtime to cover the loss of the valve but there's no keeping it beating past a certain point, other parts of it rupture, and it bleeds out. It's quick, and that's how quick it can happen.
This might just be the weirdest shit I've ever seen, but I don't know that I'd call it monstrous. More like ... confusing.
