Quotes

add »
J.D.: Thanks. Is there anything else you wanna... tell me, or admit to? I mean, I looked everywhere, there was... no signs of balloons. (edit)
Turk: Wow, I got a family.
J.D.: I know. In seven months, I'm gonna have a family, too. Did you ever think we'd be here back when we were freshmen in college? Remember that first week when I found you hooking up with my girlfriend, and you said you guys were only naked underneath the covers because you'd had a water-balloon fight and you were cold?
Turk: J.D., for the last time, nothing happened.
J.D.: Please, this isn't about that. It's just that I looked all over, I never found any balloons. You'd think there'd be some balloons. (edit)
Elliot: I caught it! That counts! I'm gonna go hold the crap outta that baby! (edit)
Elliot: You know the worst thing about Turner's surgery? I'm gonna be right, but... he's gonna die. It'll be a hollow victory.
Dr. Cox: If I got to be right and have a private practice doctor die due to his own idiocy, I would call that a pretty full victory. (edit)
Dr. Cox: Giant coffee.
Janitor: Saw you coming. Here's your vente drip. Say, how 'bout a Corinne Bailey Ray CD. With her stripped-down sound and chilled-out vibe, this British soul superstar is one of the year's hottest newcomers.
Dr. Cox: You know what - I'll take one of those.
Janitor: It's a sale. (edit)

Trivia

add »
In the coffee shop, when Kim says that she and J.D. should be able to talk about sex, Elliot visibly winces at the word "sex", part of the running joke of how incredibly uncomfortable she is with matters relating to sex. (edit)
Featured Music:
"Heart and Soul" written by Hoagy Carmichael, performed by Zach Braff and Elizabeth Banks (J.D. and Kim play piano)
"All In All" by Lifehouse (Final scene)
"Why" performed by Elefant
"New Model" performed by Emotion Project
"Boy" performed by Keren DeBerg (edit)
If you look closely on the cotton candy man's rash, you'll see that it looks like a smiley face with curly hair. (edit)

Allusions

add »
Lewis Black's Starbucks Joke:
When the two 'Coffee Bucks' are seen right next to each other, it is very similar to a Lewis Black joke called: The End Of The Universe.

In this joke he makes fun of how Starbucks have been popping up right next to each other. And that there is a street, where there are actually two Starbucks facing each other. And if you stand in the very middle of them, and you look at your watch, time literally STOPS! This is the 'end of the world' as we know it. (edit)
When a second coffee shop is opened nearby later that episode and Ted exclaims "Oh man! Now I'm last in both lines!" it illustrates how Starbucks shops have mushroomed everywhere. The same joke was used in Shrek 2... (edit)
Starbucks:
The coffee shop "Coffee Bucks" that Dr. Kelso opened up at the hospital is an obvious allusion to the well known, popular American coffee shop "Starbucks". (edit)
