When Bernie has an insurance-required colonoscopy (a miniature camera on a tube right up the rectum), Tony is loudly approving and supportive as he tags along for moral support--but Dr. Lou Swerling seizes the opportunity to schedule Tony for the next morning. Giving Mickey's hospital orderly observations and Dana's "childbirth's worse" routine, he can't even milk it for sympathy. It gets worse: Swerling finds a probably benign polyp but still schedules Tony's butt for the scalpel next day. His attempts to sneak out are foreseen and countered. While he is being prepped, Swerling recognizes Dana as a college date's friend, and Tony fears being "conveniently lost in OR" and runs, albeit only to maternity. So the surgery goes through, but the weirdest twist is in the tail.
