Some quotes from ABC President Steve McPherson:
McPherson: “We have obviously been disappointed” with the way Ted & Scrubs have performed. Doesn’t feel they’re compatible with Wed shows. link
McPherson hopes Scrubs/Ted have potential to grow, “but I’m not going to lie and say the numbers have been really encouraging for us.”link
So tonight might be the fifth to last episode of Scrubs. Again. But free will is a Hallmark myth ladies and germs, and this is a universe that takes things linearly. So onward we go…
Okay, this is definitely Zach Braff’s final episode – he was originally scheduled to do six episodes and on my Braff abacus it says this is his sixth appearance this season. According to wikipedia this is Sarah Chalke’s final appearance as well, so it would make sense that we get a JD/Elliot story. Elliot threatens to beat JD up early on which kind of creeped me out. Has this turned into an abusive relationship? Elliot swears once she stops being pregnant things will be back to normal. Elliot shows Denise her Sex Trapper Keeper which clearly states she will play “hide the penny” and “me boy you girl” after she has the baby, but JD wants it now out of fear everything will change once it’s born. They talk about how they fought in the first year of marriage after they said they wouldn’t, but apparently it was because he screwed up the laundry. Pshew. The old man with the now deceased wife tells Elliot he wishes he had more time, and Dr. Cox informs Elliot that yeah, having the baby will change everything, so get busy. He then says JD sounds like a “bag of cats”. I’ll miss him. JD makes a makeshift pampering booth in the hospital. Our last image of JD and Elliot is of the two of them kissing. Perfect. Seriously, it’s cute. Shut up.
Christa Miller makes her yearly appearance as Cox’s wife. She insists Perry puts her in his will because she didn’t get any benjamins on her Uncle croaking. Denise wins the lottery of listening to Cox without talking back. Cox witnesses an old man outliving his wife of 47 years and subsequently isn’t in the mood to sign any will any time soon. “You just can’t mix your work with your personal experiences” he tells Denise. (Which as Denise points out was Ally McBeal’s problem too.) Oh wait what was that? Cox ends up following his own advice and a will is signed.
Lucy is trying to deal with opening up a cadaver, which is 25 percent of her grade. Unfortunately she knew the body back when it was alive, so it had a name, so it can make you daydream that the guy is telling you not to cut him open and you run out of the exam. Lucy gets over her fear because this episode should have aired a few weeks ago and we saw her get a white coat already.
Stuff to pass off as your own
Final nicknames: J-Cobra, Panther-Claw.
“Turk also says ‘Knight Rider’ is a documentary.” “It’s based on a true story!”
“I got to take a walk five.”
“Jazz makes babies gay.”
“Pregnancy sex? Nothing like junk in the front.” “Are you some kind of perverted ninja?”
“Come on now, nobody wins at cancer.”
P.S.
Cole has no qualms with eating in the morgue. JD and Turk also play hide and seek in the morgue.
Cole’s mother was a giant whore.
