“That's backwards! It's been bugging me for years.”— Kim

Contents

[edit] Synopsis

J.D. begins to fall for Dr. Kim Briggs, a urologist he shares a patient with. Since she wears a wedding ring, J.D. assumes she is married and not available for him to hook up with. He later realizes that she is divorced and only wears the ring in order to keep the guys at the hospital at bay. When Dr. Cox reveals that she's refusing to do a risky surgery to keep her statistics up, he begins to have mixed feelings. Elliot considers breaking up with Keith after he refuses to stand up for himself, but Carla, amid her pregnancy hormones, tries to save the relationship. Later Carla goes off on Elliot and Keith comes to her rescue and stands up for her. Meanwhile, Dr. Kelso decides to trust the Janitor to fetch cash from a deposit at home, which he regrets. After J.D. confronts Kim on her attitude about keeping herself safe, she decides to perform the surgery on Mr. Peters.

[edit] Recurring Themes

[edit] Fantasies

  • J.D. realizes he likes Kim but since she is married, he can't make her his. He then turns into Dr. Acula and bites Kim on the neck in order to make her his for eternity.

[edit] Flashbacks

  • Clips from previous episodes are shown with Kim transposed in to prove that she was working at Sacred Heart throughout the show's history
    • My First Day: Kim is shown behind J.D. when he does the catheter procedure.
    • My Screwup: Kim is shown at Ben's funeral, although in the original episode, Carla was sitting in the spot where Kim is now seated.
    • His Story: J.D., is in an elevator singing "Kung Fu Fighting." Kim is in the elevator with him, but is invisible to J.D. because of her wedding ring, so he thinks he is alone.

[edit] Janitor story

  • Janitor is shown with the teaching mannequin in his van so that he can drive in the carpool lane. Keith is punished by Dr. Cox for losing the mannequin.
  • Janitor tries out his new bit on J.D. He takes a pencil, snaps it, then says "oh no, I snappah deh pencil". He performs stand-up every Monday at sun-up at the Giggle Pit.
  • J.D. accuses the Janitor of stealing his video camera that has all the scenes from Dr. Acula. The hospital website has a scene of Dr. Acula delivering a baby, then eating it. The video was listed under the name Rotinaj, which is Janitor spelled backward. At that moment, Dr. Rotinaj walks up and Janitor addresses him as such.
  • Dr. Kelso asks someone to run out to his house and pick up $400 and Janitor volunteers. J.D. warns Dr. Kelso not to let him do it because he will steal from him. Dr. Kelso lets him do it anyway because he doesn't fear the Janitor. The Janitor later shows up in a new black leather trenchcoat. Dr. Kelso suspects he bought it with money he stole from him. Dr. Kelso later realizes Enid is wearing a new pant suit. The Janitor tells Dr. Kelso that all he knows is leather never goes out of style, if you're going to keep your money in a pickle jar you should probably know how much is in there, and it never hurts to buy your invalid wife something nice so maybe she can feel pretty.
  • Dr. Kelso, in a fit of rage, takes his 8-iron to Janitor's van. Unfortunately for him, Janitor was videotaping the whole thing, with J.D.'s video camera that he did indeed steal. Janitor uses the tape as blackmail to get Dr. Kelso to read over the hospital intercom "I feel compelled to tell you that I do, in fact, fear the Janitor. Honestly, is there anyone else with such a brilliant mind? So please join me in basking in the glow of the Janitor's awesome fearitude."

[edit] Episode Gags

  • Staff members offend Laverne by assuming that she is much older than she actually is.
“And you guys have been together for what, 60 years?”— Elliot
“I'm 48. And I'm done here.”— Laverne


“Yeah, she thought it would be best if I treated him medically.”— J.D.
“First of all, Newbie, nobody's ever thought that. Ever. Secondly, she's a cutter. When was the last time you met a cutter who didn't want to cut? Laverne? You've been here 40 years now. You ever heard of such a thing?”— Dr. Cox
“I'ma kill somebody.”— Laverne
  • The Greasers, a group of 1950s styled surgical and medical staff members give Kim a synchronized snap, and then later call Turk "square" when he passes a risky surgery to one of them.

[edit] Guest Stars

[edit] Music

  • "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas (performed by Zach Braff)
  • "Easier to Lie" by Aqualung

[edit] Quotes

[edit] Trivia

  • My Urologist screens with a modified title sequence, in which Dr. Kim Briggs steps in and reverses the X-Ray image that says Scrubs. She concludes by saying "That's backwards, it's been bugging me for years."
  • The scene at Ben Sullivan's funeral is edited with Dr. Briggs in place of Carla to prove that she has been at Sacred Heart Hospital all the years.
  • The "square" joke by the Greasers is a reference to Quentin Taranatino's "Pulp Fiction", in which a character similarly calls another square and continues to draw one in the sky.
