While George begins to feel that he's loosing his masculinity due to Izzie and Meredith treating him like a sister, Izzie's newest patient may loose his masculinity to prostate cancer. Cristina assigns herself to a sick woman, who she believes will need surgery, but ends up learning more from the woman then standing in on a surgery would ever give her. Meredith faces the reality of her mother's Alzheimer's when Derek treats a patient with nails in his brain. Meanwhile, Alex tapes up pictures of Izzie's racy spread all over the locker room.

When Izzie had to take off her clothes in the scene in the locker room, Katherine Heigl, who plays Izzie, insisted that if she had to undress, than the crew should have to also. The director, producer, and director of photography all stripped down for the scene.

Episode Quotes
 
Alex: Morning, Dr. Model.
Izzie: Dr. Evil Spawn.
Alex: Ooooh, nice tat. Do they airbrush that out for the catalogs?
Izzie: I don't know. What do they do for the 666 on your skull?
 
George: I don't think you understand. Me - gonads! You - ovaries!
Izzie: Oh, that reminds me. We are out of tampons.
 
Alex: (about patient with nails in his head) BWA HA HA! It's Hellraiser!
 
Izzie: (to Alex in the locker room) You wanna see it? You really wanna see it? Fine! Let's look at that tattoo up close and personal, shall we? (rips off her shirt) What are these? Oh my God! Breasts! How does anybody practice medicine hauling these things around? And what have we got back here? Lets see if I remember my anatomy (takes off her pants)Gluts, right? Let's study them, shall we? Gather around and check out the booty that put Izzie Stevens through med school. You wanna call me Dr. Model? That's fine. Just remember that while you're still sitting on 200 grand of student loans, I'm out of debt.
 
Cristina: (to Izzie) You are eight feet tall. Your boobs are perfect. Your hair is down to there. If I was you I would just walk around naked all the time. I wouldn't have a job, I wouldn't have any skills, I wouldn't even know how to read. I would just be...naked.
Izzie: It's makeup. It's retouching.
Cristina: You get that we hate you, right?
 
Bailey: (to Izzie) Of course, now you know every time he gets a rise, he'll be thinking of you.
