Addison finds Noah sitting outside the hospital in his scrubs and a coat. She asks what he's doing, and he says he can't look at her, because she'll see it in his soul. He says in his heart he's cheating on her, and asks what kind of man he is. Addison doesn't actually know yet, since they barely know each other, but she pretends she does. She says his wife is upstairs about to have a procedure that scares the hell out of her. She's alone and she needs him. She says he's the kind of man who puts his own feelings aside and goes into the O.R. and holds his wife's hand.
Cooper watches Naomi talk to Sarah, and he walks in to an office to talk to Yvonne, who admits she screwed up. She says that now Sarah doesn't care what she has to say, because she's the baby's mother. Cooper says she's right; Yvonne can't force her to have an abortion. But she's still a child, and now needs her mother even more. Yvonne asks if Sarah will listen to her, and he says she has to keep trying.
Surgery's beginning in the O.R., when Noah comes in. Morgan tells him she didn't think he was coming. He says he's there. She asks him to tell her it's going to be okay, and he says it is. She closes her eyes, and Noah looks at Addison, who is operating on his wife's cervix. That is just so many kinds of weird. Maybe not for doctors, I guess, but it's totally weird for me. (It is not just you. It is gross. -- AC)
Sam and Naomi make small talk after the long day at court and with pregnant twelve-year-olds. He asks her to go have a drink, but she already has plans. He says okay, and she says she's going out with Duncan. He acts like it's okay. She says, "So, tomorrow?" He says sure, and watches her walk off with Duncan. He is so nice to her, but he's clearly not happy. Unluckily for Dell, just then Sam sees him and a girl come out of a room tossing her underwear back and forth. That's what all the kids do after sex these days, apparently. Sam asks what he's doing, and Dell actually says, "Spare me the sermon," since Naomi's already preached to him twice. Sam yells that this isn't a sermon or preaching. He's telling him to cut the crap. He knows Dell's hurting, but that doesn't give him carte blanche to blow his job off or treat this place with disrespect. Sam says this is a top-notch medical practice and everyone will treat it as such, no matter what's going on in their personal lives. Dell says that Pete's on a date with a patient's mother, which follows him sleeping with a co-worker or three; Violet got knocked up, probably in this same office -- the same office where Sam and Naomi... But Sam interrupts and tells him to stop it right there. He says to take his ass home, get some sleep, and come back first thing tomorrow with a better attitude, because he has family who needs him here.
