Doug is covering for Mark, who is allegedly off sick with flue. Looks more like daytime nookie with his wife.Which involves more naked Mark. I find this discomforting. Jennifer, Mark's wife, cheerfully remarks during bath sex that Mark might have the seven year itch and that Susan is the most obvious recipient of his wandering eye.
Div is being rude at Jerry. Again, remember who'll still be in the series in season 12? In fact, he's being an unprofessional arse, and admitting people under pysch for being drunk. And Susan decides to over-ride him.
Haleh has got a kid she's known all his life in as a volunteer so as to defer his time for some crime. Very like DJ or whatever his name is in season 12.
Carol has to deal with a girl who has been gang raped.
Carter reveals he has a nice shiny gold card and pays to fix Susan's car. Also, some of his folks owned Tennassee. Benton's mother appears in the ER with a sprained ankle. She thinks Carter's folked owned her folks. Carter is getting increasingly narked about Benton never taking him to the OR.
This is a real filler of an episode. In theory it should hang together, but the various plots don't really work. You've got Mark and Jennifer's 9 1/2 hours mingled in with Susan arguing with Div, Doug looking fraught and Benton being crotchety because he didn't get the scholarship he went for. And messed in with that is the gang rape victim. It just adds up to a conflicting mess of half-baked story elements.
