I liked this episode because i thought that it had a lot of great JD/Turk moments. I loved it when they did siamese doctor or when they were in the bar and JD says "you know what put our right hand in front of your face. Now talk to it!" Aww man classic. This isn't really summing andything up, I just wanted people to know how much I liked this episode..selfish i know. Oh wait and the Janitor was hilarious too. His costumes were priceless. Oh yeah and the whole Jordan Cox thing was good too. Jordan getting conned by Sam the drug addict was good and I liked how Dr. Cox spun the whole situation around saying that he did it so that Jordan can feel accepted into Sacred Heart. Yeah def a good episode!
Jordan comes into Sacred Heart! hide show
This episode was cool. JD seems to think of himself as a cool guy and a funny boss for his interns, but eventually, thanks to Janitor, he finds out that his interns are just sucking out to him because he is their superior. Kelso warns him that power always makes people to do bad things, JD does not want to believe it, but he begins to be bad to his interns because of what happened before. Eventually, JD decides to forgive them... and with the sucking back. Meanwhile, Jordan starts in Sacred Heart and meets with Sam, who previously played the drug addict, and convinces Jordan to give him money. Everyone is enjoying it, except for Turk, who wants to tell her but Cox prevents it so that Jordan sees how life in the hospital is. Jrodan discovers Sam's lies and gets mad at Cox, but only for a short time, and thanks to Carla, Elliot quits her job and tells Carla not to tell Turk, which is something awful for Carla since she likes to brag about everything. She tells Turk a different secret, and Elliot admits that Carla is a good friend. This episode was cool! I love it!
Probably the worst Scrubs episode I've ever seen. Disappointing. hide show
The season opener (My Intern's Eyes) wasn't great and this episode was even worse. Don't get me wrong, it had it's funny moments. But it also contained one of the many unrealistic, cringeworthy 'stoner humour' moments of season 5, when JD cut one of his interns with a buzz-saw in a flashback scene. Contrasted with a season 2 fantasy (i.e. something unrealistic that didn't actually happen) when JD was cut with a buzz-saw, you can see how the realism that the producers pride themselves on has slipped out of Scrubs.
The plots in this episode were weak and disinteresting. One was about Jordan settling into the hospital, which Cox has once again gotten mad about for no reason after he reconciled his opinion of it in My Changing Ways. Another was about JD dealing with his interns and the fact that they were sucking up to him. And another was about Elliot losing her job at her new hospital, which was a good point of this episode because it allowed her to return to Sacred Heart a few eps later.
Overall, a don't exactly love this episode. But it's worth mentioning that even when Scrubs is at it's worst, it is still far better than most other TV shows, so I wouldn't snub this episode.
The Janitor reveals to JD that his interns laughed at his jokes because he is more superior than they, and that causes JD to lose some jokes. Later on, JD tells his interns that they should always be honest about themselves and all of his jokes, but in the end manages to find out tha the does not needs to be of his interns' likeness and in the he gets excited over his new power. Meanwhile, Jordan is now working at the hospital and everyone ignored her, except Turk, who is caught on surprise. Turk is the only one who does not thinks that it is right when Jordan falls over for the drug addict, but in the end it makes Jordan to learn a lesson. And Carla discovers that Elliot does not wants her around because she embarrases her, and Elliot quits because of her new nickname. Later on, Carla swears that she won't tell JD or Turk, and manages to keep her promise. A really good episode, it was really fuunny!
My Rite of Passage... hide show
Better than last weeks episode, much better infact. Now it felt like Scrubs was back. Great humour here. Great storylines as well.
The Janitor tells JD that his interns only laugh at his jokes because they work below him.
Turk trys to help out Jordan from making a fool out of herself because she working with a junky, the same one who conned Elliot in 'My Mment of Un-Truth'. However Dr. Cox tells him not to so she can learn what it's like working at the hospital.
And Elliot is furious when Carla tells Elliots co-workers about an embarrasing time.
All in all, quite a funny episode. Hopefully things like this will stick in the upcoming episodes. Hell hopefully even better.
