   Well, Evan finally gets his wish from 1st episode (“Note to self, become a doctor.”) If I were Divya, however, I might have thrown him off the boat — even before he had the chance to do something medical. She’s pretty calm when she is pissed.

   But honestly, how logical was that procedure and how quickly would any group in a legal battle with a doctor and wanting to strip him of his license actually vacate a room so he can remotely direct a procedure? Did you catch the Grey Goose? This was a very fast-paced episode and if you turned away, you missed something. (I missed exactly how the captain ended up with a collapsed lung and broken ribs the 1st time around.) Did I think it was too cute to have Jill and Hank trying to call each other at the same time? Naw, it actually happens. Now, her storming away from Charlie was a bit staged and her salutations to Hank a bit forced.

   Also, someone needs to tell me what it is about shark bone marrow that had a healing property. Not being in the medical field, I was a little scared by the method in which Boris injected the stuff. What is the contraption called? Mostly I enjoy shows that wrap up nicely at the end of the episode — especially with secondly story lines (did the mistress break up with the rich guy? did the get-a-way driver/captain recover and leave his lucrative job?).

   WIll these characters be seen again like Tucker or Mrs. Newberg? What about Chuck and Patty (book couple)? I know, next week is all about Div’s pending nuptials and Jill-and-Charlie-and-Hank. Wasn’t that an Alan Alda movie? Overall, I like that we learn more about Boris. I like that he’s trusting Hank, but also that he’s making him figure things out on his own. I hope Boris lives to see another season. It would get pretty crowded at Jill’s if the Lawson bros had to move in because of Boris’ death. But maybe it won’t matter based on what the finale previews. Did I understand that HankMed money is gone?! (Footnote: didn’t like the post season rap that much, but I am told I have no sense of humor.)

     WOW!!! That is a pretty comprehensive wrap up comment I’ve ever seen for a TV show. That is awesome.

     I do agree with you on some of the main points and speed of the episode, but overall an okay one.
