[edit] Synopsis
J.D. is afraid that his narration will ruin his relationship, so he decides to "stay out of his head", and passes on the narration to Carla in this episode.
Carla feels threatened by a new Hispanic nurse whom Janitor describes as a "young Carla". She, Jordan, Elliot and Julie Quinn go out for drinks, and the next day they are all massively hungover, except for Julie. After talking to Mrs. Wilk about age, Carla gets a fertility test. Well she tries to until she sees the new gynecologist, Dr. Matthews. He recommends that she doesn't get a fertility test unless she's over 35. 36 year old Carla says she's 29. Dr. Kelso steps in and tells her to get the fertility test, and the results come back positive. She and Turk celebrate with sex
J.D. and Julie's relationship is progressing fine, except J.D. cannot get over Julie's personal tic of saying "That's so funny!" instead of laughing. Turk and Elliot stage an intervention to help him avoid ruining his relationship because of such a small issue, but eventually J.D. and Julie split up when he realizes her visions of their future together do not quite match his.
[edit] Plot Points
- Carla gets stressed about a combination of her age and why she isn't pregnant, so she takes a fertility test.
- Turk helps J.D. get over his hate of Julie's habit to say "that's so funny!" instead of laughing.
[edit] Recurring Themes
[edit] Fantasies
- Carla is insulted, so turns into a banshee and screams so ferociously that all the glass in the hospital smashes, including Turk, who is nicknamed "Glass man".
- Carla imagines everyone in diapers when she can't stop thinking of babies, including J.D. (who proceeds to wet himself in a diaper).
[edit] Flashback
- Turk remembers an ex-girlfriend with an annoying quirk: Whitney the Snapper.
[edit] Janitor story
Since Carla is narrating this episode, the Janitor focuses on her. He repeatedly points out how old she is after she mistakenly says he is 45 (he is actually 43). The Janitor is the one who initially brought up the "Young Carla" comparison to Nurse Martinez.
[edit] J.D.'s girl names
- Joanna
- “Did you know, J.D's parents thought he was going to be a girl. They didn't have a name ready when he was born, so until he was 3 years old they called him Joanna.”— Julie Quinn
- “I don't know who you are, but thank you for this.”— Dr. Cox
- “I don't know who you are, but thank you for this.”— Dr. Cox

[edit] Episode Running Gags
- Jordan, along with every other female in the hospital, has a crush on the new gynecologist, Dr. Matthews.
- Julie's godfather is Billy Dee Williams. Turk keeps calling him "Lando Calrissian," (after the character that Billy Dee played in the Star Wars films) which annoys him.
- Jordan gets so drunk when the girls go out, that she ends up in a catatonic state. Dr. Cox describes her as how alcohol affects "the very, very old." He later puts a fake arrow on the unconscious Jordan's head.
- Carla starts a rumor that Nurse Martinez is really a man.
