By Keckler | Season 2 | Episode 24 | Aired on 05.06.2006
The car crash victims get carried in. As one Noah Reynolds gets put behind one curtain, a woman yells, "Noah? Yew still ahlive?" Noah calls back, "I'm still alive, baby!" Noah explains to Izzie that his wife's side of the car took most of the impact when a car slammed into his in-laws' car and they into them. The pregnant wife's medical situation gets read off and she throws a few "mercy mes" in as she insists that she's fine because of all the airbags. The pregnant drawlin' wife, who will be known as Sister Woman until further notice, asks the emergency team to just check on her baby and the rest of her family: "Noah?! You saw Momma breathin', right? And Daddy -- where the hell is Daddy?! Momma and Daddy are still ahlive, right?" Noah yells back that they were in the ambulance right behind them. Sister Woman pleads with an unsympathetic Cristina to find out what's going on with Momma and Daddy. Cristina responds, "Yeah, I'll ask someone about...Momma." "And Daddy," Sister Woman reminds her. At that moment, George brings in Momma and Daddy and says that both of them are stable, but Daddy is experiencing chest pains. "Dang it all to HECK!" Momma, played by Frances Fisher, bawls, clutching her big white purse. "Excuse my French, honey, but I need some whatever kinda horse pills yew got, because this hurts like the DICKENS!" "That would be Momma," Cristina tells Sister Woman as she preps her for an ultrasound. George and the emergency crew struggle with Big Daddy, who wants to get up and walk around. "Gee off!" Big Daddy orders, reaching for his nonexistent horsewhip. George wants to check Big Daddy's spine, but Big Daddy gets off the bed and insists, "Mah spine is fine and yew can sew up my head later -- where's my girl? Smelly!" "Daddy?" Sister Woman responds. "Jim?" Noah yells." "Noah," Daddy bellows. "Mel?" Momma calls. Good lord, it's like their car crashed into Walton's Mountain. "Momma?" Sister Woman calls, who name appears to be Mel or Smelly. Big Daddy finally sloughs off George, and Bailey walks by, muttering, "It's a hillbilly picnic." Big Daddy, clutching at his IV bottle and still wearing his neck brace and head trauma gear, stumbles over to Smelly Mel. Cristina tells everyone to shut up because she's trying to find the baby's heartbeat. Everyone is quiet. Cristina finds the heartbeat, checks it, and proclaims all to be well. Another ambulance is heard to scream outside and Big Daddy, wild-eyed, hustles over to the rest of the family to announce that Baby and Smelly Mel are both good. "Oh, thank the lorrrrd," Momma trembles, staring in a compact and powdering her face, "thank the lorrrrd they're all right." Meredith brings in another car crash victim, and Momma starts screaming that that's the guy that hit them. "I'll keeeel 'im!" Big Daddy bellows. "You sunuvabeetch!" Webber and the emergency team hold him off, as Momma screams, "Big Jim, jest hold yer horses! He's hurt! He's alreddy hurrrrt!" "Don't ASK me to be neighborly!" Big Daddy screams as he gets wrestled back to his room. "What happened?" John Cho, the driver, asks. Meredith orders a bunch of tests.
