[edit] Synopsis

J.D. and Carla go out for Mardi Gras and get beads which solidate their friendship. Carla then uses these "friendship beads" to convince J.D. not to tell Turk that Carla has been having doubts about getting married, as well as that she has been seeing an old friend, Ron Ramirez that she used to have an interest in. Meanwhile, Elliot is trying to convince Dr. Cox that a patient, Sam Thompson, isn't at the hospital just for free drugs, and Dr. Cox is trying to prove that he is, and will always be, right. While Carla is out with Ron, Turk also confides in J.D. about how much Carla is annoying him. Later, Carla decides to admit to Turk about her doubts with her engagement, and looses all her doubts once she has done that. Elliot is then proved wrong by Dr. Cox when Mr. Thompson admits to wanting drugs for non-medical reasons, and taunts her about it through a victory dance.

[edit] Plot Points

  • Carla's "whatif" guy (a doctor she had a huge crush on before Turk was on the scene) asks her out on a date.
  • Dr. Cox and Dr. Kelso are trying to convince Elliot not to give her patient drugs as they suspect he is an addict faking pain.
  • J.D. is confided in by Turk and Carla but cannot tell anyone because of friendship promises.

  • Carla and Ron Ramirez are looking for a table in a restaurant, and Carla pushes all the cutlery off the table and starts making out with Ron on it.
