Frank dips his finger in the petri dish on Ted's desk, tastes it, and begins to deduce what it tastes like, when Ted informs him that the petri dish contains Fertilizer, evidence relating to a completely separate case.

Innocent Innuendo: A good example is when Frank goes to a sperm bank thinking it's a regular hospital.
