The Positively Positive

In this episode of Royal Pains called “Frenemies”, the brothers each find a new love interest. I’m trying really hard to like Emily as she wasn’t exactly introduced to us as the nicest character. So the fact that Hank has fallen for her is a little hard to understand. But in this episode, we get to know her a little better and I’m happy that Hank has found someone, especially considering how awkward things have been for Jill. So I’m willing to give Emily a chance….for now.

As for Evan, his gig as a fake boyfriend includes lunch with the parents as well as a hunting trip that unfortunately gets him shot in the bum. In the process though, the girl of his dreams begins to realize that maybe Evan is real boyfriend material.

My favorite bits…

The way Hank said “the doctor is IN”. Yeah, that was all kinds of sexy.

HankMed getting paid in really big fish and being told the keep the change. How exactly does one make change with fish? Give back a few minnows?

Jill trying to hide from Dr. Blair by ducking down in Hank’s car. Yeah, that looked much better.

Hank telling Jill “Okay, she’s gone now” when Dr. Blair walked away, and the incredibly dirty look Jill gave him. Classic.

The way that Hank was with the little boy. I just love watching Hank with his patients, he’s got that vibe of a doctor anyone can trust and the way he touches people, it’s hard to describe without sounding strange but you can just really tell that he cares for all of his patients – male, female, young, old, rich, poor, it doesn’t matter.

Evan telling the fake story of how he and Paige met and then the real way he described what he sees in her. Aw.

Evan telling Paige’s father that he tries to kill something every day.

The image of Evan dressed in the hunting gear. LOL!

Seeing a whole new side of Dr. Blair when she’s at home with her son.

The little girl bossing the little boy around. Too funny. Aw but writing on him wasn’t as cute.

Poor Evan being stuck with Paige’s father on the hunt and trying to figure out the man’s hand signals.

Jill hearing a phrase from Emily that Hank said and finally catching on about those two.

The kid saying he felt fine, right before he barfed all over Hank’s shoes. Oops.

Evan getting hurt…again. First he gets knocked out on a diving trip and now he gets an ass full of buckshot. Poor guy can’t catch a break.

Divya removing the buckshot from Evan’s butt in the middle of the kitchen and Hank not being able to hold back from cracking up. Can’t blame him, I was busting up too.

Hank and Emily meeting out on the beach. Before his phone started ringing, it was really romantic.

Being so scared for little Jake when he called Hank to say that he couldn’t wake up his parents. Eeek!

Jake triumphantly announcing that “POO” wasn’t poo, it was “Property Of Olivia”. LOL! So cute!

Evan detailing all the things he had to keep from doing to keep his butt from hurting. My favorite was “as long as I don’t clench it.” Good thing those two are brothers, otherwise I think that would’ve been TMI.

Hank trying really hard to argue with Emily but being completely sidetracked by her getting naked. That’s so not playing fair.

Paige asking Evan out on a real date.

Hank trying to pretend that “POE” meant “Property Of Evan” and Jill not falling for it. Nice try Hank.

Overall a pretty sexy and fun episode of Royal Pains with just a touch of drama mixed in as Hank helped a young boy and his parents figure out the real reason he was getting ill.
