Royal Pains

The first-and painfully awkward-morning after between Hank and Jill is cut short when Hank receives an emergency call from Ms. "Newparts" Newberg. Her faithful housekeeper, Esperanza, has been sick for a week but Ms. Newberg needs her well before her big party the next day. To thank him for his speedy and efficient efforts, Ms. Newberg invites Hank to attend the "Bark Mitzvah" she's hosting for her dog Koufax. But the occasion takes a frightening turn when the hostess, the dog-of-honor and some of the guests start exhibiting the same symptoms as Esperanza, whose condition has worsened. The only way to find out is to lockdown the estate and quarantine the sick until they can figure out what's going on. Meanwhile, Evan learns that Divya is engaged to a man she d sn't love. Apparently arranged marriages are not a thing of the past in Divya's world. less

Jill is thrilled when her best friend Katie shows up at Shadow Pond unexpectedly. However, the reason for her visit is business not pleasure. Boris, whom Katie met through Jill at his Memorial Day Weekend party, has agreed to fund Katie's medical research. That night, Boris calls Hank into the house to attend to an incident. Hank is shocked to discover that Katie has a shark bite. Boris claims it happened when Katie was swimming in the ocean but Hank's not buying it. Despite Hank's agreement to respect Boris's privacy, Hank begins poking around looking for the truth. Evan fesses up that he knows that Boris is keeping a shark in his house. But that d sn't answer the question why Katie was in that shark tank-or d s it? Instead of celebrating Boris's birthday with a big party, he asks Hank to give him his annual physical. Unsurprisingly, Boris seems like he's in excellent shape. As a standard part of the exam, Hank takes Boris's blood and sends it to Hamptons Heritage Hospital for testing. After a strange conversation with Boris about Hank's initial seemingly benign findings, Hank requests a full analysis on the bloodwork. Before Hank can confirm his hunch, the bloodwork disappears from the hospital and Boris has taken off without a word or a way to reach him. Hank is now convinced that Boris is sick and that it's somehow all tied to the research that Katie is doing and the shark in the basement. Meanwhile, Divya's fiancé Raj has arrived on the East End for a visit. But a medical case she's attending to for a crazy couple isn't helping her sort out her feelings about her pending nuptials. less
