[edit] Synopsis
As Keith leaves for the weekend, J.D. helps Elliot cheer up. They play a game of macaroni with Dr. Beardface. Later, as they talk about not being able to make plans because Elliot is busy, Melody O'Harra enters the hospital. They later reminisce about college at Coffee Bucks. At a bar while waiting for Elliot, J.D. and Melody make out because they are bored. J.D. lies to Melody to make her angry at Elliot. This works, and Melody storms out when Elliot arrives at the bar. Back at the hospital, J.D. internally wishes he could apologize, but they make plans for that evening. Again, at the bar, they guess how many beers patrons would have to consume to have sex with J.D., when Melody enters again. The record scratches. The barman tells her to hit it because it is broken, and does it all the time. The lie comes out, and they stare him down as he ends up paying $105 for an appletini. Outside of the bar, J.D. and Elliot talk about how they need to spend more time together.
At Elliot's apartment, Keith reveals he didn't go to see his own family, but to see her father. He then asks her to marry him.
Treating a new patient, Lloyd, Dr. Cox gets upset because there is nothing wrong with him. Turk argues with Dr. Cox about how Cox never gives him any good surgeries. Dr. Cox then gives Turk Lloyd, who confronts Turk about their air band, The Cool Cats. Later, Dr. Cox and Turk degrade Lloyd by transferring back and forth to each other. Soon thereafter, Turk transfers Lloyd to Dr. Cox for the last time, after giving him surgery. Cox then lectures Turk that you can't give surgery just to prove a point, and Dr. Kelso chimes in that Turk might have his license revoked. At the nurses station, Carla chews Dr. Cox out about letting Turk take such a fall. Cox then asks Dr. Kelso to let Turk off the hook. As it turns out, Lloyd didn't even undergo surgery - but was fooled by theatrics. Dr. Cox was the target of a ploy by Turk, Carla, and Dr. Kelso to earn some respect, which ends up working.

[edit] Janitor story
Janitor devises a plan that will make his job easier. He dresses up as a ghost (with a bedsheet and eye holes) and spooks children in pediatrics. He tells them the "Ghost that Hates Spills" will come and haunt them if they spill anything. The backstory is that the ghost's parents died because of a careless spill. He uses rollerblades to make the ghost a little bit "glidey". He is then seen behind a window gliding around as the ghost.
