1. In Which We Meet Addison, A Nice Girl from Somewhere Else

Addison Montgomery resigns from Seattle Grace Hospital to accept a position as a gynecologist at the Oceanside Wellness Center. During her first day of work, her six co-workers (and main characters) Naomi Bennett, Sam Bennett, Violet Turner, Cooper Freedman, Dell Parker, and Pete Wilder, are introduced. Addison has difficulty adjusting to her new work environment on discovering Naomi did not tell anyone that she had been hired, and learning she will handle a lower number of patients than expected. All of the doctors deal with individual patients, while trying to resolve problems in their personal lives.

Addison and Dell help a pregnant teenager with a difficult childbirth, Violet consoles her patient in the middle of a nervous breakdown in a store, and Naomi and Sam discuss whether they should fulfill a woman's wish to extract her dead boyfriend's semen and impregnate her with it. At the end of the day, Addison delivers a speech to her co-workers, announcing that she will be staying at the practice.
