Allyson loves shower time because it's a chance for a little peace and quiet. So she got annoyed when her husband barged in and told her turn off the water. Her daughter had been sick earlier in the day, her husband took off and they stayed home.

Allyson said she missed the appointment for her pedicure. Meredith tells her that she can afford a whole wax job with the money she's won.

Allyson stops the clock with 16 seconds in order to ask the expert. Ogi peruses the question. "You haven't seen the movie?" he asks. She has. She remembers the ending and the song. Ogi asks what her guess is. She says B, then asks what Ogi thinks. He suggests that it's D. She asks him to confirm that and he does. He mentions that at the end of the movie the actor "has that straw" (and gestures to emphasize his statement).
