Episode Report Card Wing Chun: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Fear Of Commitment

By Wing Chun | Season 7 | Episode 20 | Aired on 05.02.2001

In the next room, Luka "Sexual Healer" Kovac is working on Mr. Ferris. Benton gives a little more background to Mr. Ferris's condition, and Luka says that Mr. Ferris is in CHF. Duh. I totally knew that. Benton's like, "No shit." Luka asks about Lasix, and Benton says they already gave him some. Mr. Ferris is still conscious, and Benton asks how he is. Mr. Ferris gruffs, "You tell me!" Benton tells him that he has to go work on Blind, Stupid Biker, but that Luka will take good care of him. I'll say -- just ask Lisa! Bun chicka wah.

Benton returns to Blind, Stupid Biker's room. Benton tells Dr. Dave to do an ultrasound. We get an extreme (and so unnecessary) close-up of Benton trying to insert Blind, Stupid Biker's chest tube, and then the camera pulls back to show Benton wincing in pain. His wrist, remember? That he hurt when Blind, Stupid Biker swooped into traffic like a Blind, Stupid bat out of Blind, Stupid hell? Dr. Dave asks what's wrong, and Benton lies that it's nothing. Another (equally unnecessary) shot of the chest tube. Ew. Benton winces again and flexes his fingers. Dr. Dave asks whether Benton hurt himself, and Benton lies some more that he didn't. Dr. Dave offers to help, and Benton's like, "The hell you will, funboy."

Desk. Amira is reading something when Lisa ambles around the corner and hands her an inflatable party doll dressed as a nurse, asking her to shove it under the desk: "It belongs to Mr. Simpson in Exam Four." Amira's like, "Ew, the hell?" but before she can actually say that out loud, Lisa advises her, "You don't wanna know." Kim "Mitchell" Legaspi rolls up to the desk and breezily asks Lisa, "Shouldn't you be at the courthouse?" Lisa actually says, "Huh?" Mitchell tells her that Sally has just been transported to her commitment hearing: "Aren't you supposed to testify?" Lisa's like, "Guh?" Mitchell slowly explains, "The State Attorney's office was supposed to call you....Your mother has contested her certificate of commitment. By law, she's entitled to a hearing in front of a judge." Lisa snorts, "And -- what? He could release her?" Mitchell says, "Technically. The attempted suicide is a really good argument for a ninety-day hold." Oh, ya think? Thanks a lot for that expert legal/psychiatric analysis, Dr. Chief Justice Oliver Wendell Freud. Lisa chuckles bitterly. Mitchell adds, "But uh, since you witnessed it..." Lisa, her head spinning, asks when all this is happening. Mitchell says it's at 11:15 AM at the County courthouse. She heads off to spread more cheer throughout the land.
