[edit] Synopsis

This article needs a better synopsis. You can help Scrubs Wiki by giving it some reconstructive surgery.

J.D. and Turk travel to Phoenix, AZ to attend a medical convention. There, Dr. Kelso and other Chiefs of Medicine live up the party. They attend a lecture given by J.D.'s Ex-girlfriend, Dr. Kim Briggs, who is actually pregnant - despite the fact she told him a few months earlier that she miscarried. J.D. is upset with her, and stands her up at the bar where he promises to talk things out with her.

Back at Sacred Heart, Elliot has problems planning her wedding. Keith doesn't realize the wedding is 100% up to her. Dr. Cox makes her doubt her love for Keith, and makes her think she is marrying just to get married. In the end, Dr. Cox and Carla make her feel alright by calming her nerves.

[edit] Janitor story
