[edit] Synopsis
While Carla and Turk are preparing for their wedding, Carla realizes she may not be able to have the big, expensive wedding she had always dreamed of and instead have to settle for a smaller, cheaper wedding because of their budget. To make matters worse for Carla, she discovers her mother has died. After the funeral rehearsal, as Carla is feeling in quite a state, she tells Turk she doesn't want to wait and instead wants to get married as soon as possible. The only place can find is a cold and empty chapel - the hospital chapel. The only people in the chapel are J.D. who is wearing a pair of old scrubs cut up into shorts, Elliot who is wearing a pair of blood-splattered scrubs and Dr. Cox who is busy with paperwork. Not only that, but the Chaplin even forgets Carla's name. Just before the wedding starts, Turk thinks about what Carla really wants and in the end cancels the wedding and decides to postpone the wedding until they make it perfect for Carla.
Meanwhile, J.D. is having troubles with the fact that Elliot has pointed out to him that is relationship with Jamie has lost it's spark, and the two realize that she was only with J.D. because it was the naughty thing to do as her husband was in a coma, but now it is okay it has lost it's dramatic spark. For the next few times he meets her, he does something dramatic which makes her want to continue with the relationship, before pointing out to her that she only likes dramatic relationships and they both agree to stay together in a quiet, dramatic-free relationship. And while all this is happening, Dr. Kelso tries to prevent more lawsuits by forcing Dr. Cox to run a seminar on how to prevent lawsuits from happening.

Janitor makes shorts for J.D. by cutting most of the legs off a pair of scrubs, and makes a "shorts schedule" when both J.D. and Janitor must wear shorts together. J.D. throws them away but says that they were stolen from his locker, so he doesn't hurt Janitor's feelings. But when Janitor finds them in the rubbish, he forces J.D. to wear the dirty, muddy, smelly shorts for the rest of the day.
