In Which Dell Finds His Fight
Season 1 | Episode 9 | Aired 12/5/07
Addison has another plan. She can do an experimental procedure where she will root around in Jeffrey's testicles, pluck out a healthy sperm and mate it with one of Kathleen's eggs. A little icky, but maybe it'll work. Addison hustles Jeffrey into surgery and finds one viable little swimming sperm. She extracts it carefully, places it into a petri dish with Kathleen's healthy egg and ... Presto! Time to start arguing about baby names!

Dell has Sam examine his grandfather, Wendell (guest star George Segal), who is covered in bruises. The feisty old man insists nobody is abusing him at his nursing home. Sam and Dell decide to investigate anyway. They catch the nursing home staff looking the other way as Wendell and his best friend, Nate, pummel each other in a bare-knuckled boxing match.

"This is for the championship!" Wendell exclaims before landing a solid shot to Nate's chin. Boom! Nate is down for the count. Sam can barely find a pulse. Rushed to the hospital, we discover Nate has suffered a heart attack. Wendell swears he didn't mean to hurt his friend. Not that much, anyway. Nate eventually passes away but it wasn't from the fight. He had a bum ticker that was going to stop beating no matter what.
