Katz puts his back out while putting on his shoes, and Ben, as usual, is a wealth of help ("You want me to push you over?"). He eventually becomes Katz's primary care-giver, though, driving him to work, carrying him into the office, and turning him over to Laura, warning her that he's heavily doped up on medication. "I may actually enjoy seeing some of these people for the first time," Katz says. ("Can I have some of those, too?" Laura asks.) Katz plays "How Far Would You Go for a Friend?" with Julie and Stan (Katz: "OK, I'm choking on my own vomit." Stan: "Right now?"). Ben reads a massage book ("Rub Yerself") and decides he wants to be in one of the "helping professions," until he learns it involves helping people.

• Ken Rogerson: Was married to an English woman ("That accent's real cute, for about a week"); wife would buy stuff at yard sales because it only cost a dollar; wants to be cremated so that people can throw handfuls of him at people he hated in life; shot his own Thanksgiving turkey ("Everybody at the supermarket was looking at me"); bad gambler because he can't add fast; was in a car accident 15 years ago -- "I hit a lake"; hates tail-gaters, because "when I'm not in a hurry, no one else should be either."
• Lizz Winstead: Afraid she'll have a child and then leave it on top of the car; can't work in offices with perky people; figures parents should use reverse psychology for sex education, and tell their kids about their own sex lives ("I would never stop throwing up").
• David Juskow: Wrote a one-man show, a musical based on the life of Clarence Birdseye, the frozen vegetable magnate; wants Elvis Costello to sing one of the songs. Note: He never actually gets in to see Dr. Katz.
