"This season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians does seem rather interested in &amp;quot;health&amp;quot;, doesn&amp;#039;t it? After Kim&amp;#039;s scary hospital visits in last week&amp;#039;s episode, there was more medical drama in this instalment - from the slightly amusing to the really touching. Of course, there were also plenty of light-hearted japes to enjoy and it was a gratifyingly Scott-heavy hour. Read on to find out what we learned from this week&amp;#039;s KUWTK!  Prank calls might be immature, but my goodness they&amp;#039;re funny. We would like it on the record that we are very mature people and don&amp;#039;t find prank calls funny. They are a nuisance. They are antisocial. Except... well, okay, so when Scott is prank calling Kris, it&amp;#039;s actually really very funny indeed. I mean, who knew that Scott could put on a voice even more ridiculous than his own? With Kim, Khloe and Kourtney&amp;#039;s backing, he&amp;#039;s pretending to be a family friend called Todd Cranes. Kris is not buying it. I don&amp;#039;t know why a stupid voice is funny and I feel like I should be above all this, but whatever. Scott is the Lord, after all. Kris might have ignored the calls, but then Scott starts calling her at restaurants and sending her $200 bouquets of flowers (now that&amp;#039;s commitment). At one point, he can hardly hold in the laughter during the call, which is obviously hilarious to watch. Who wouldn&amp;#039;t want to see Scott&amp;#039;s eyes and cheeks bulging in barely contained hysteria? Kris is actually getting a little worried that she has a stalker at this point, so obviously everyone is finding it funnier and funnier. Kim has to pretend she needs the bathroom at one point because she&amp;#039;s finding it so hilarious. I know - Kim is actually laughing. Like, really, really laughing. But I think my favourite part about this whole storyline - apart from Scott&amp;#039;s ridiculous voice and everyone&amp;#039;s giggles - is that there is absolutely no resolution. No-one owns up to anything. Did Kris only find out the truth when she watched the episode? I really, really, really hope so.  Bruce is actually a little bit deaf - but he doesn&amp;#039;t have a brain tumour Bruce has been getting a little too big for his boots this season, so let&amp;#039;s all laugh at his hearing loss - hurrah! Because that&amp;#039;s always funny! Anyway, Bruce can&amp;#039;t hear a lot of what people are saying, though as Scott wisely suggests: &amp;quot;I think he can hear. He just doesn&amp;#039;t want to.&amp;quot; Who could blame him for that? But Bruce switching up the TV volume so loud is getting on Kris&amp;#039;s last nerve. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE. Bruce is really proud and refuses to think about going to the doctor, until finally Brandon is pushed by Kim to talk to him. Bruce actually speaks pretty honestly to Brandon about his deafness but insists that he&amp;#039;s not &amp;quot;stubborn&amp;quot;. Brandon&amp;#039;s elongated &amp;quot;Ooookaaaay&amp;quot; says it all, really. But it must have worked because Bruce goes to an ear clinic to get his hearing tested. The doctor reveals that he can&amp;#039;t hear high frequencies too well - in other words, all the women in his family (and probably Scott). He also suggests that, because Bruce&amp;#039;s hearing is better in one ear than the other, they do an MRI to check there&amp;#039;s not a &amp;quot;benign growth&amp;quot; on a nerve. Of course, when Bruce communicates this news to Kris he tells her there&amp;#039;s a chance he might have a brain tumour because why miss an opportunity to absolutely terrify her? Kris obviously accompanies Bruce to his MRI and he admits that he&amp;#039;s nervous about what they might find, but in the end the doc explains that they didn&amp;#039;t find anything untoward - phew! He does force Bruce to get some hearing aids, though.  Scott has confronted his fear of death Kourtney&amp;#039;s second cousin CiCi has had cancer for more than 15 years and needs a bone marrow transplant, so Kourt plans to get tested. But while she&amp;#039;s on the phone to CiCi, Scott can&amp;#039;t help but make jokes (on the Armenian bone marrow registry: &amp;quot;Do they give you hummus on the side when you go in?&amp;quot;). Kourtney thinks that he&amp;#039;s possibly just a bit nervous about the whole &amp;#039;sickness and death&amp;#039; thing - and Scott doesn&amp;#039;t exactly disabuse her of this notion when he admits he doesn&amp;#039;t want to go and see CiCi in Vegas. And when they go wig shopping, Scott bails as soon as Kourtney suggests picking one out for CiCi. Meanwhile, Scott discovers that a woman on Twitter - Josie - is very ill but has meeting him on her bucket list (&amp;quot;Who wants to meet you?&amp;quot; Kourtney asks, lovingly). Anyway, he&amp;#039;s reluctant to go meet Josie at first but Kourtney urges him to do it (and suggests his fears might have something to do with his dad being ill). So in the end, Scott agrees to go see Josie on his way to Paris for Fashion Week. Obviously, when he gets to Ohio and Josie opens the door, he announces: &amp;quot;The Lord is here!&amp;quot; Josie is clearly a big fan of Scott because she&amp;#039;s arranged his own throne, which is amazing (he hands her his coat: &amp;quot;Throw that anywhere - it&amp;#039;s just mink&amp;quot;). Obviously, because we&amp;#039;ve all seen reality shows before, Josie turns out to be a really lovely, positive, wonderful woman who makes Scott see things differently, but it&amp;#039;s hard to be cynical when she&amp;#039;s so brilliant. And when she speaks about being sick, everyone - Scott included - gets a bit teary. Seriously, Josie is great - she gets all her friends over to do shots and Scott opens up to her about his dad. It&amp;#039;s all really, genuinely sweet so I can&amp;#039;t even make jokes about it - and Scott is so moved that he gives one of his beloved Rolexes to Josie, who gets a bit weepy herself. And after leaving Toledo, Scott calls Kourtney to say he will come visit CiCi with her after all. Aww. Who knew the Lord had such a heart?  Other stuff...   Kris Humphries got a mention that was not divorce-related: Khloe talked about seeing &amp;quot;Hump&amp;quot; at one of Lamar&amp;#039;s basketball games. I thought his name would be, like, banned.  Kim is having a tough pregnancy: With lots of heartburn. Thanks for sharing.  &amp;quot;Is your family complaining?&amp;quot; the ear doctor asks Bruce about his hearing. &amp;quot;The family&amp;#039;s always complaining,&amp;quot; Bruce sighs.  Scott wants you to know his life isn&amp;#039;t as amazing as you might think: &amp;quot;A lot of people look at us and think our lives are always these wild times. No. After you settle down, you end up at antique shops.&amp;quot;  We found out what happened to Kim&amp;#039;s late kitty Mercy, according to Scott: He reckons a stuffed cat in the antique shop looks a lot like the dearly departed pet. &amp;quot;We saw some ancestors. We ran into Mercy. It was very nice to see her.&amp;quot;  But overall he&amp;#039;s not impressed with the antique shop: &amp;quot;When this is done can we go shop somewhere luxurious?&amp;quot; And later: &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s nothing uglier than shopping for old crap antiques.&amp;quot;  Kourtney used to do nice things for Scott, like bring him water in the night: &amp;quot;It only lasted a few weeks, but it was nice.&amp;quot;  Scott has his priorities right when it comes to packing for Paris Men&amp;#039;s Fashion Week: &amp;quot;I gotta get my cane.&amp;quot; Also: three-piece suits, two-piece suits, a casual suit and wristwatches (&amp;quot;gold for night and silver for day&amp;quot;).  Khloe and Lamar have a new puppy: It is called Bernard Hopkins or B-Hop for short and it is basically THE CUTEST. (You know what else is cute? Lamar tussling with the dog and smiling: &amp;quot;B-Hop! B-Hop!&amp;quot; Too much adorableness.)  Bruce is trying out something new with his hair, with the help of a fork: His family&amp;#039;s view? &amp;quot;My God, no.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s horrible.&amp;quot;  Kanye Kount: 0.
