[edit] Synopsis

After Elliot reminds him that it is their seventh year anniversary of their first kiss, J.D. freaks out and shoplifts a present for her. After Leonard retrieves it, Elliot tells him that they don't need to sweat the small stuff because they know what to expect in their relationship. Later, at the cafeteria, everyone receives invitations for the Janitor's wedding in the Bahamas. Elliot is upset that he is getting married before she is. Everyone is upset that the announcements came on such short notice, but J.D. convinces them that they all need a break and should be there for Janitor. They all agree. Elliot decides to stop eating so she will look good in a bathing suit. Later that night, in bed, she tells J.D. that she loves him. He tells her he feels the same way, but she explains that he must say it with feeling. He tries to sneak sweet ways to say "I love you" on her when they reach the Bahamas. After being yelled at by the Janitor for actually showing up, J.D. notices that all of the couples in the Bahamas are arguing. He confidently tells Elliot that they can rest assured with each other's love. He thinks he has pulled off a smooth move but Elliot walks away, upset.

Meanwhile, Turk is upset that Carla has been acting like a mother and not like a wife. She is hesitant to go to the Bahamas because of leaving Izzy alone for such a long time. On the islands, she is constantly on her phone with the babysitter. When Turk convinces her to meet for a special rendezvous in the ocean, she stands him up and talks to Izzy on the phone.

Jordan pesters Dr. Cox into coming to the Bahamas, but he informs her that he will be busy working there. She celebrates this idea. However, she gets fed up with him being on his laptop all the time when they are together on the beach. She eventually hurls his laptop into the ocean when he reveals that he finished his work on the plane and was just doing extra work to prove his point.
