Private Practice: In Which Addison Has a Very Casual Get-Together
October 18th 2007 04:03
Poor Addison tries to have a party with her new coworkers, and no one RSVPs. Except for Dell suddenly when she brings it up. A very nervous Sam goes on TV and tells people that he cares about his patients, and when one man is self-conscious about being bald, Sam reminds him that many important people are bald. Like the Arm & Hammer guy. This, of course, is what he’s teased about throughout the rest of the episode, as the Arm & Hammer “bald guy” is really just an arm and a hammer.
Violet’s ex-boyfriend’s new wife comes in to see Naomi, and Violet goes crazy trying to find out why she’s there. Her stalker-ish obsession with her ex-boyfriend is actually just kind of annoying. I’m warming up to the rest of the characters, but I’m still having some problems liking Violet. Okay, I get it that she’s a psychologist who can help everyone else with their problems of letting go or finding out what they want but *insert shocking revelation here* she can’t help herself. But I’m just getting a little tired of her constant nervous obsession with a man we’ve never even met. Oh well, that’s her character hook, so I guess I’ll just have to get used to it. I do think it’s really cute that Cooper is in love with her though.
Speaking of Cooper, he deals with a lovesick kid and makes a deal that he’ll tell Violet how he feels if the boy will tell who he loves how he feels. He can’t go through with it thought, and the kid ends up getting beat up by his friend who, as it turns out, was another boy.
Addison and Sam try to help a young mother who is on the run from the hospital because she believes they’re trying to kill her. The woman’s mother shows up, along with Dr. Charlotte King (The Oceanside Wellness Group’s nemesis), and they show Addison the girl’s charts. Apparently she’s been starving herself. Addison is sadly disappointed, but Sam sticks to his beliefs that they’re different than other places. Together everyone finds out that the woman wasn’t lying after all, she really is sick. The mother apologizes, and everyone decides to Addison’s party after all.
Favorite quote of the week:
Sam: It really is just an arm and a hammer.
Naomi: Let it go.
