Dr. Michelle Talmadge is a doctor who treated Charlie and is revealed to be one of his exes. She only appears in Woo-Hoo, a Hernia Exam!.
History[]
When Charlie pulls his back during lovemaking, he and Alan decide to go see his doctor Stanley Schwarz in Beverly Hills. However, upon arrival at the doctor’s office they’re told that Dr. Schwarz passed away since Charlie last visited him four years earlier. Dr. Michelle Talmadge took over Dr. Schwarz’s practice and meets Alan and Charlie in her exam room.
Charlie, who’s impressed by Dr. Talmadge’s beauty, starts to hit on her. At first, she’s mildly amused, and gives Charlie a shot of Demerol to ease his pain and allow his muscles to relax. When Alan left the room in order for Charlie to have a hernia exam, Michelle begins to drop the act and tells Charlie he’s “unbelievable” while examining his testicles. Charlie mistakes it for a compliment initially, but then she makes herself clear and says it’s unbelievable Charlie doesn’t remember her.
She informs him they dated when she was in medical school, but broke up when Charlie didn’t return her calls and started seeing her roommate. Charlie notices that she’s tightening her grip on his testicles when she’s confronting him about it and begs her to “leave him one”. From outside the room, Charlie’s pain outcry is misunderstood for him having sex with Michelle.
Later that day, at dinner, Alan asks Charlie what actually happened in the exam room. Charlie lies and tells Alan he did have sex with Michelle, to which Alan complains about the injustice of the situation.
Notes[]
- Michelle seems to be quite arrogant and condescending, given her attitude towards Alan for him being a chiropractor (“not a real doctor”).
- For unknown reasons, Michelle didn’t attend Charlie’s funeral, leaving it open if she was aware of his passing.
