Mind if I cut through?

Golfers sometimes cut through difficult to cross places to hit their ball as it lies, to save strokes. But here, the golfer is cutting through a very inappropriate place: an operating room. Furthermore, his "cut through" statement takes on a second meaning: it's as if he is asking if he can "cut through" the patient, as in: participate as a surgeon during the operation.
