Grey's Anatomy recap: Use protection, people! Seriously.

In this episode, we were introduced to two medical cases. One was major, the other was well... funny. A patient in a hoodie shows up at Seattle Grace Mercy West but refused to come out of the car. Apparently, his wife forced him into the car and drove them there. And when he did come out, Lexie screamed and we realised why. He was covered in fungus-like warts and had claw-like hands that resembled a tree.

Mark explained that he had contracted HPV and in rare cases like his, his immune deficiency caused the warts to go out of control. It is, by the way, a real thing. The doctors offered to surgically cut and stitch each wart and offered to graft his skin as much as possible to make up for the damage. He initially refused but his wife, frustrated with spending years in the house, threatened to leave him if he didn't.

He got the surgery and we had very graphic and disturbing scenes as Bailey maneuvered her way through his tree hands. "You're going to be doctors, caregivers. You need to be able to handle anything the human body throws at you." she lectured, before screaming like a "bitch baby" when a spider (!) emerged from the tree-like hands. To make things worse, there wasn't enough healthy skin left for a skin graft so he was going to look like Frankenstein for about six months to a year. His wife had had enough. "I think love isn't enough anymore," she said to Mark. "Is that possible? That two people can really love each other and it just isn't enough?" She left.

On a lighter note, another couple came in and the girl complained of breathing difficult which she thinks is cancer. She disclosed freely that she was a virgin and she was waiting for their wedding night, which is going to be special. We soon found out that there was a blockage in her lung which turned out be a condom. She explained to her boyfriend, tearfully and adorably, that she put a condom on a banana at her bachelorette party and accidentally inhaled it in the process. "I just wanted you to have a good time on our wedding night," she wailed.

This led to a hilarious discussion among our doctors of the time they lost their virginity. April (Is it just me or did she have a new hairstyle? She looks much prettier.) said her first time was on a beach, at sunset. Right. Seriously? Alex burst out, "HA! You're a virgin!" Ooo... someone got busted! But we all know that in this horny hospital, that cherry ain't gonna stay forever.
