In this Carrerow & Chambers story, Lilly has to go to the hospital because of mono, "the kissing disease."  Meanwhile, Buffy & Hildy reluctantly agree to be candy-stripers.  Sonny becomes involved with a blind patient, partly because she likes being liked for something besides her looks.  Henry encourages Kip to tell Sonny his feelings (with some psychodrama where Scolari imitates Dixon).  Kip tells Sonny he's in love with her.  She's flattered and likes him a lot but says love comes slowly for her.  Overall, a nice if not classic episode.  The weird little Portuguese guy probably isn't PC these days but he still makes me smile.  Note that Amy manages the building while Lilly's away and does a terrible job of it, while Isabelle makes everyone shape up immediately when she takes over, foreshadowing the change in management in the next season.
