Taye and Kellerman are walking down the hall when Amy tells them that she ordered Ms. Horny and Mr. Flaccid to have sex and "he didn't rise to the occasion." Taye: "Nothing? No wood." Amy: "Not even a twig." Now, I'm not a highly trained therapist, and I don't play one on TV, but I would think that when confronted with a man who hasn't had sex with his wife in eighteen months, one of the very first questions you might ask him is whether he's able to perform. Is he able to masturbate? Does he get morning wood? Because those are the kind of key factors that help determine whether impotence is psychological or physical. (Here's a hint: if your impotence is physical, you're unlikely to be getting any erections at all.) It may be that I just know a lot more about the penis than Amy does, but I'm beginning to suspect she's not a very good therapist. In fact, Amy has just now decided that Mr. Flaccid's problem must be physical, because she thinks the only other option is that he no longer loves his wife, and that's too depressing for her to think about. Kellerman suggests that Mr. Flaccid might be gay, and Taye starts to list some of the potential physical causes. Of impotence, not gayness. And then Kellerman asks, "Have you checked for extreme ugliness?" I don't really care if the spin-off gets picked up, but I wouldn't mind if Addison brought Kellerman back to Seattle Grace. He's funny and hot. Also, I have to assume that it's now the next day, because otherwise it would mean that Ms. Horny and Mr. Flaccid ran home for a quick nooner and have just called up Amy with the results. And that would just be sad.
Addison gets on the elevator and silently looks around. And then she says hello several times -- I can't tell whether she's hoping that the elevator voice will speak to her again, or whether she's scared that it will.
Mark throws a chart down on the desk in front of Alex and asks if he ordered the EEG on Crush. Alex claims that Mark told him too, but Mark says his orders were to run tests on Crush every other day. And I guess an EEG is either not one of the tests, or it's the wrong day. Alex notes that Derek is doing a neuro workup on Crush; I would think he could have just told Mark that Derek ordered the EEG. Although I don't think it would have changed this interaction, because Mark is just looking for an excuse to beat up Alex. And if you're going to have all the attendings sleeping with interns, I guess it's okay for them to physically threaten them as well. On hearing Mark's threat, Alex tells him, "I didn't do anything." Mark: "Whatever you didn't do sent Addison running for the hills."
