The next day, several news vans are outside the hospital, eager to shed light on Pamela's big story.

“We're here today to cover the hearing of Pamela's Barnes. Now you may remember, she allegedly administered drugs into her system, causing a code blue. The first to speak at this Morbidity and Mortality Conference are a fellow nurse, and her ex husband.”

Once everyone is in the room and settled, the questioning begins. Over the course of the day, three people wind up speaking.

First up is the fellow nurse, April, and the chief of medicine for the hospital begins his questioning,

“Where exactly was she?”

April responds calmly, “Standing in a patient's doorway.”

After she steps down, Pamela's ex husband comes forward.

The chief of medicine treats him the exact same way, “What exactly did you see Dr. Barnes doing?”

Mr. Turner replies, “Well, she was sitting on the patient's bed with her scrub top off, while the patient handed her his jello.”

Finally, the other patient in question gets to speak.

The chief of medicine slides forward a thong in a plastic bag, and he asks the patient, “Mr. Ophis, can you please tell me what this is?”

The patient's visitor leans forward and answers, “My relative's hospital gown.”

The chief asks, “This is the 'hospital gown’ Dr. Barnes asked your relative to wear while she was checking your relative's charts?”

The patient replies, “Yes.”

The chief goes on, “Mr. Ophis, are your relative and Dr. Barnes having a fling?”

The patient's visitor gets a little cheeky here, “Can you clarify what you mean by a fling?”

The chief gets short with him, “Are your relative and Dr. Barnes having sexual relations?”

The patient answers, “Yes, alright. Yes, they are.”

Then, they decide to start this all up again tomorrow, and as everyone starts filing out, Pamela immediately goes to Jess,

“You know an Alpha Delta Pi would never exploit a man for sexual purposes.”

Jess immediately replies, “I know. I believe you, Pam.”

As Pamela's being led away, she says, “Watch out for me, Jess.”

The next day, before they're all about to go back into the conference room, Jess is in line to get some food from the cafeteria, when she gets a phone call.

“Hello?”

It's me.”

“Donna! How'd it go?”

“It's terrible. I went to try the bend and snap, and I broke his jaw.”

Jess asks, to make sure she actually heard that right, “You broke his jaw?”

“I completely blew it, Jess. My snap just went everywhere.”

“I'll be there the second the conference gets out for the day. Now it's Crowley's turn to question Noah. But don't you worry. I have a friend that accidentally puked on her boyfriend, and they wound up going steady for a whole year.”

“Really?”

“Uh huh!”

“Alright, if you're sure. Bye!”
