Patrick is the exotic animal vet that comes around. He tries to do all he can for free or as cheap as possible, 'cause he knows it's expensive to run the no-kill shelter. T-Bone - the parrot that attacks Ray's hair and calls Gerard "Pretty Lady" - is his favorite patient. Patrick is also Gerard's ex - from waaaay before - but they're still good friends. Patrick has money on the Frank/Gerard betting pool, and he's hoping to win big.

The betting pool is actually getting kind of ridiculous. Everyone's starting to cheat, coaching Frank and juggling his schedule around whenever it get's close to their particular picked date. Frank's starting to get suspicious. Gerard, as usual, has no idea all this is going on. Or does he?
