Becky takes a massive fall down a huge set of stone steps. Boies finds her.
Ben and Boies look at Becky's x-rays. There are apparently many, many tumors. A tumor in her pelvis is "impinging on the joint" and caused her fall. Becky has consented to a biopsy. Boies says they might be able to "sneak in some radiation while she's not looking." Ben replies, "Believe me, I've thought about that." Boies doesn't know why Ben caters to patients like this. Ben jokes that Boies is a tough guy, and it's always guys like him that marry girls like her. These two have a great rapport. If this show doesn't make it, they should make a movie together or something.
Tao Healer visits Becky in the hospital, and disparages the setting, and he thinks Ben is "distracting [Becky] from the Tao." Shut up, Tao Healer! He sits on the bed and tells Becky that she has to fully believe in the Tao, basically saying that it's her own fault that she's not getting better. Becky says that she's scared. Tao Healer says that is a way that the universe is meant to be. Becky sighs, and looks scared some more.
After a class, Ollie suggests to Cherry that they have sick building syndrome in the hospital. He denies it, but when she starts suggesting symptoms, he thinks he has every one, especially scratching. Oh, I really did not need to see him walking down the hall scratching his butt. What is this, ER?
Ollie is talking to the Sick Building Patient. He says he can't go back to his job, and he won't be able to get disability out of him. Ollie starts asking him a bunch of questions, such as what happens to him when he goes on vacation, and if his house has a leaking roof. Ollie suggest that he doesn't like working in "a new building in a poor black neighborhood." The patient goes off on how much he hates the building, and the neighborhood, and how he doesn't belong there. However, he claims that the whole building is full of sick people. Ollie says that she tested the eight other people and none of them had the bacteria. The patient can't believe it.
Wyatt has been at the hospital all night, trying to figure out what's wrong with Boner Guy. Besides the obvious, that is. Boies asks him what's going on, and Wyatt thinks the problem may be caused by riding a bicycle, something called "saddle priapism."
