J.D. and Turk think they've got bad karma after hitting a car and causing an accident, while playing golf on the hospital roof.
Dr. Cox bends over backwards to give Jordan as much comfort as possible on her labor day, and she confesses to J.D. that Dr. Cox is the real father.
Elliot seeks advice from Carla on how to tell Paul that she's crazy, because they're getting more intimate and she can't hide it anymore. But Carla is feeling too crazy herself with the upcoming wedding. Read full recap »

- When Paul tells Elliot she has something on her teeth, we can clearly see there isn't. edit »
- When Elliot is arguing with Paul about her insanity issues, she says she talks with her cat, which besides never having been shown, if she had one, it would have been robbed with her truck. Also, she tells him that she sees three different psychiatrists, which is weird because she is barelly able to pay her bills and was living with J.D. and Turk because of that not long ago.
It is stated in a later episode that she and cats do not get along well. edit » - J.D. imaginated Dr. Donna with Jordan giving birth to a baby that stragles him. How did J.D. know about Dr. Donna being Jordan's dr.? Nobody told him. edit »
- Girl Names For J.D.: Ellen edit »
- Ted: I honestly don't know what put the idea of golfing on the roof in my head!
Todd: Dude! It is so nice out here! You mind if I take it down to the banana hammock? edit » - Jordan: I was going to tell him the truth eventually, I just wanted to see if he was going to be with me because he wanted to, not because he had to. Do you know what I mean?
J.D.: What are you talking about?
Jordan: It's his baby, stupid! Don't tell anyone. edit » - J.D.: Look, Dr. Cox asked me to check in on you; I'm sorry I haven't been here until now.
Jordan: He asked you to... check in on me?
J.D.: Yep. So...? How ya doin'?
Jordan: Well, I have ruined everything! All he tried to do was take care of me and show me that he loved me. But, no, I had to drive him away because I don't like being vulnerable even when I'm normal, let alone with my ankles in stirrups and my coochie on display. So, now he's gone away for good; and I would really like to get this stupid thing out of me so I can go home and kill myself!
J.D.: Well, you sound good. edit » - Jordan: I don't know that many straight guys that wear cologne.
J.D.: I'm down to one spritz.
Jordan: Hm. edit » - Paul: You got something in your tooth.
Elliot's Narration: I can't believe I have something on my teeth. Get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off! Get it off!
Elliot: Did I get it?
Paul: Uh, no, but, don't worry about it. edit »
- Tiger Woods:
When Turk is complaining that he will get in trouble (or so he thinks) for hitting golf balls off of the hospital roof, he says that it is Tiger Woods' fault. Turk says this because he feels that Tiger Woods' being black is the reason that he (Turk) is decent at golf.
Tiger Woods is one of the most successful professional golfers of all time. edit » - Seinfeld:
When JD tries to get laughs out of his "not pregnant" joke to a male patient, the camera cuts to JD doing standup with the "Seinfeld" theme music playing in the background.
JD also says a joke in Jerry Seinfeld form: "What is the deal with Q-Tips? They're not Q's and they're not tips!" edit » - Backdraft:
When Dr. Kelso has his face burned Dr. Cox calls him Backdraft. Backdraft was the title of a 1991 film about firefighters and arsenists, starring Kurt Russell. edit »
