Grey’s Anatomy actors Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey got in a tussle on set Monday, causing a halt in production while the two TV doctors cooled off in separate spaces, E! Online reports.

A source told E! that Washington was on set prepared to shoot but was angered his fellow cast mates were slacking. He reportedly made a nasty remark to T.R. Knight and Dempsey stepped in on Knight’s behalf.

The New York Daily News says Washington then grabbed Dempsey by the throat and shoved him, though Washington told People on Wednesday that no punches were thrown.

“There was an argument on set,” Dempsey’s representative said. “In any close-knit family, sometimes people argue. But everybody made up and went back to work.”

“Differences are inevitable,” Washington’s publicist also said to E! “They were aired, resolved, and everyone has moved on.”
