(edit)
Carla: It's impossible to get a doctor to go see a doctor.
Molly: I'm on it.
(In the men's room. Turk is posing with an Afro drawn on the mirror)
Turk: Excuse me...did somebody say they're lookin' for the baaaaddest detective in town?
Molly: Awesome afro. I'm sorry to barge in on you, BUT I'm a little rusty on the medicine side and I was wondering if you could help me. See, I have this patient, constantly tired, always peeing, losing weight.
Turk: You should have him checked out, he might have diabetes.
(They exchange glances)
Turk: ...oh. (edit) J.D.: And it's our dad, and he's ranting and raving because he's an office supply salesman and he can't find a paper clip in the entire house.
Dan: Meanwhile, he gets to work the next morning, and he realises he's got a million of 'em in the trunk of his car. (edit) Turk: Baby, I got diabetes.
Carla: Oh no, Turk, really?
Turk: Carla.
Carla: I call this "Turk's Diabetes Box." (edit) Dr. Cox: You know, when my father died, all I could focus on was how he was never there, but you - you're lucky, you've got some positive stuff you can dwell on - throw the ball, Jackass!
Dan: He is a jackass. (edit) Dan: I gotta tell you little brother, you were always the apple of Dad's eye... you know, that's the worst thing about college football, the male cheerleaders - ooh, God, that's a chick. (edit)
Molly: I'm on it.

Dr. Cox, J.D. and Dan are all wearing Detroit Red Wings hockey jerseys, despite the fact that they're watching a college football game.
(edit)
We find out that (at least for this episode) Monday is "Ethnic Day" - the day where Dr. Cox calls J.D. by ethnic girls names (example in the episode: Rosalita).
(edit)
Dr. Kim (the doctor who makes everybody drop their pants) is played by Ming Lo; Ming Lo plays another character by the same name in the season 9 episode of the X-Files, "4-D".
(edit)
This is the only episode, in which J.D. isn't tormented by the Janitor, not counting "My Lucky Day", in which the Janitor doesn't appear.
(edit)
Featured Music:
"Stop Joking Around" by Hawksley Workman
"Sanford and Son Theme" (edit)

Turk: Excuse me...did somebody say they're lookin' for the baaaaddest detective in town?
That line is a famous line from the oldies tv detective "Shaft". (edit) Dr. Kelso: The man has Alzheimer's, Bozo.
Ted: It still won't smooth down!
Dr. Kelso calls Ted "Bozo" because his windblown hair is similar to that of Bozo the Clown, a legendary children's entertainer who was created and first portrayed by Vance "Pinto" Colvig in 1946. Bozo was played by several other actors over the next 55 years; the last first-run Bozo program aired in July of 2001. (edit)
