19x03 - Let's Talk About Sex

[bunniefuu]

MEREDITH: In the s,

one of the more common reasons

women visited the doctor was "hysteria."

Granny, I don't know where
your nice shoes are,

but aren't you staying home?

Can't you just wear your slippers?

Well, what about next weekend?

KAI: I'm in Miami

for a National Conference
on Neuroscience.

Miami is a six-hour flight from Seattle.

I could get on the redeye Friday night.

We'd have all of Saturday,

and then I could fly back Sunday
in time to pick up Scout.

- Is that insane?
- A little.

I wish I could get on a plane
to Minnesota right now.

I'm not in Minnesota.

You're not? Where are you?

A now-defunct diagnosis...

♪ Walkin' on water
down the devil's road ♪

..."hysteria" was used to describe

a wide array of symptoms...
chest pain, anxiety...

I wish I could kiss you
right now, but I'm at work.

...a swollen abdomen...

- Hi.
- ...mood swings.

Hi.

They tried a variety
of treatments for hysteria,

ranging from rest
to psychosomatic therapy.

Please can I watch your bowel resection?

You stay home from school,
you keep up with your work.

That was our deal.

I will never need to know anything about

the French Revolution, ever.

If you only know about medicine,

what will you talk
to your patients about?

You talk to your patients
about European history?

But true relief for these women
didn't exist...

I have to catch up with Maggie and Nick.

Go to my office.
I'll see you soon, okay?

...until physicians tried using

what they called pelvic massage.

- Hey.
- Zola's skipping school again today.

Well, she had another panic att*ck,

so what was I supposed to do?

The cure was called
a "hysterical paroxysm"...

Wow. What are you doing here?

None of your business.
I'm a private citizen.

...which today has come
to be known as an orgasm.

Uh, yeah, I may have, uh, given
her and Dr. Wilson permission

to use the interns
for a special project.

You gave away our surgical
interns for the entire day?

Well, I mean, the project's
important, and...

do you really want to tell Bailey no?

Modern medicine continues to recognize

the stress-reducing benefits
of the female orgasm.

But doctors no longer perform the cure.

Sign these.

What are they?

Release forms.

- For what?
- Okay, new rule...

No questions before : a.m.

- Well, we just want to know what we...
- Save it for : .

I'll be in the pit
if you desperately need me

and there is absolutely no one else

in your general vicinity who can help.

- Okay, but where...
- People, it's very simple...

no questions.

You just didn't tell us
where we're going.

- You're with Dr. Bailey.
- Who's Dr. Bailey?

Wow, blasphemy.

I am Dr. Bailey.

[SIGHS]

What are you waiting for? Let's go.

I'm so sorry.

I-I thought I met all the attendings.

I'm Mika Yasuda.

No need to apologize. I don't work here.

Dr. Bailey was chief of surgery
until about six months ago.

I left to spend time with my family.

That's nice.

It was, and then the Supreme Court went

and stripped women
of our reproductive rights.

Dr. Wilson has been helping me
with a sex-ed curriculum

to teach teenagers about their bodies

because we now live in a country

where the only way to guarantee

you don't have to carry
an unwanted pregnancy

is to not get pregnant.

And statistically speaking,

teens need some big help with that.

So we are making sex-education videos

to put up on social media.

We want to go viral...

you know, like that cat
that plays the piano.

Oh, come on, people, get with it.

Dr. Bailey, we're surgical interns.

We have progress notes
and nurses paging us,

and we're behind on discharge summaries.

I don't even have time
to look at my phone.

I've got like unread texts.

Nurses love me.
You won't be bothered today.

And in exchange for your cooperation,

you get the benefit of working

with yet another world-class surgeon.

Yeah. How much fallout are you
experiencing in California?

Last week, I had five patients

You know what?
Talk to someone who cares.

- Oh, excuse me, Dr. Altman.
- What?

Well, as much as I respect the purpose

Um, yeah.

This is very important and all,
but I am not your guy.

- Never had sex before?

This is your assignment today,

I think what Dr. Kwan
is trying to say is, uh,

we're not exactly qualified for this.

- Yeah.
- Okay, do you understand

that hundreds of thousands of teenagers

will become pregnant this year?

And now a lot of those children

will be forced
to carry their babies to term,

or worse, give themselves

No.

Consensual sex requires no

If you have to beg for it

So...

let's learn how to do it right.

There are erogenous zones
on the female body...

the ear, the neck, the armpit...

Wait, what, the armpits?

Yes. You wouldn't know that,

because like most men,
you go straight for the...

[LAUGHTER]

But the nipples on many women

can be as sensitive as the clitoris,

so going straight for them

without any foreplay
to the erogenous zones,

can be painful and overstimulating.

The other erogenous zones
can be the stomach,

the inner thighs, the feet,
the back of the knees...

Have you ever had someone lick
the back of your knees before?

Wouldn't you like to know?

...the more obvious erogenous zones.

The external vaginal region...

ADDISON: Wilson, tell me what you see.

You are draining the cyst to get
access to the torsed ovary.

And I've created a barrier to
prevent spillage

from the cyst's contents
into the abdomen,

in case of malignancy.

Torsion's a rare complication of cysts,

and I used to caution my patients

from imagining the worst-case scenario,

but now, after the stripping
of Roe v. Wade,

everything feels like
the worst-case scenario.

Amen to that.

I have constant rage inside.

Yeah, I've thought about going
to one of those places

where you pay money to destroy things.

Doesn't help.

I also have rage.

What's going on? Is Zola okay?

Oh, yeah, she's okay.
She's in there with Amelia.

Okay. I thought she may have had
another panic att*ck.

No, no. But she did find
some of Kai's puzzles

that they use for
neurological evaluations.

The puzzles mainly focus
on visual-spatial skills.

Yeah, I'm familiar with them.
What... What's going on?

Meredith, she's aced every single one

at a level far higher
than most of the adults I see.

I'm aware that she's smart.

My question is, why is she being
evaluated without my consent?

Right, well, it...
Yeah, it was an accident.

Zola discovered the test when she and I

were in there practicing
on the simulators.

She's supposed to be
in my office doing homework.

Mer, based on Kai's time with her,

Zola is extremely gifted,

which could explain the panic att*cks.

When giftedness is undiagnosed,

it can contribute
to behavioral issues...

anxiety, a feeling of being untethered,

a feeling that you don't belong.

Because you don't. Her brain does
not function like other kids her age.

She needs challenges that they don't.

She needs to be around peers
who can relate to her

and the way she thinks.

I'm gonna go see my kid.

Penetration is not necessary
for mutual pleasure.

For starters, most women,
or people with vaginas,

can't achieve orgasm
through penetration.

- Yes?
- How come that's not in p*rn?

Because p*rn is to actual human sex

as the "Fast & Furious"
is to actual human driving.

That is to say, it bears no resemblance.

If you are having sex with your partner,

and you are trying
to make it look like p*rn,

your partner is experiencing
little to no pleasure.

I would disagree.

Well, you would disagree because
the girls you are with

are also making it look
and sound like p*rn.

But that is just an act.

A real man wants to give a woman
a real orgasm.

So you want to be a real man
or some candy-ass actor

for whom a woman has
to pretend to enjoy sex?

[LAUGHTER]

Guess they were right.

This is definitely going viral.

Oh, not yet. Need music.

And then after minutes,

swallow whatever is left

And then a few hours
after you take the misoprostol,

you'll experience
some cramping and bleeding,

like a very heavy period.

Then you'll pass the pregnancy,
