Distraught after learning that her old medical school has listed her occupation as "retired", Zoe tries to get published by her medical alumni magazine to show that she is still in the medical business. When Tom walks in the office with a strange rash, Zoe suspects it may be leprosy, and enlists Wade to help her capture an armadillo on Crazy Earl's property. Meanwhile, George goes a date with Shelby ( Laura Bell Bundy ), a woman from out of town. Upon hearing about George's date, Lemon has a "girls' night out" with Annabeth, where she meets an attractive dentist named Walt Blodgett.
