"Follow Through" by Gavin DeGraw edit » - J.D. tells Elliot that he wants to order Chinese food and stay in tonight, and she agrees. However, they both know that tonight is the rehearsal dinner for Turk and Carla's wedding. Why would they make alternate plans? edit »
- When J.D. and Elliot are getting ready for the rehearsal dinner, the clock behind them says that it is 9:30. However, it's light outside the window meaning it can't be 9:30PM, and they've already put in a full day of work so it isn't 9:30AM. The clock obviously wasn't changed to coincide with the action of the scene. edit »
- Carla called Turk "Christopher", even the fact that he said in "His Story II", that she only call him that way if she's mad and/or if they're having sex. edit »
- Jordan is 5 years younger than Dr. Cox. edit »
- Turk: Anyway, uh... I may not ever be able to tell you how much you mean to me, but I promise I will try to show you... for the rest of my life. I love you.
Carla: I love you.
Elliot: Aren't they amazing?
J.D.: I don't love you.
Elliot: What?
J.D.: Please don't cry.
Elliot: Oh, I won't.
She angrily shoves him and throws him over the table
J.D.: Oh, God! Someone call 9-1-1!
Elliot: Oh, could I get a little more wine, please? edit » - Jordan: Why didn't you tell me you felt that way, you dumbass?
Dr. Cox: Because you're so much like your mother, you wouldn'ta listened anyway.
Jordan slaps him then kisses him
Dr. Cox: No biting.
Jordan: Just take it, you girl. edit » - Turk: You're making a big mistake.
J.D.: Come on, man. Elliot and I are like best friends. We love hanging out with each other. Maybe that's love. I mean, who-who knows what love really is?
Turk: I do. J.D., when I look at Carla, I see the future. I see kids, I see minivans, I see a beer gut - on me, of course, not her.
J.D.: I hope so. edit » - Turk: So I take it you haven't broken up with her yet.
J.D.: Yeah, I decided to stay with her forever.
Turk: That's great, dude. I know you think you're being nice, but I'm pretty sure Elliot doesn't want to spend her life with someone who doesn't love her.
J.D.: Oh, you know what? If it's okay with you, I'm gonna go ahead and take relationship advice from someone whose fiancee is currently speaking to him. Ohhhh!
Turk: Ohhhh-ho!
J.D.: Gimme some champagne! I need a victory sip! edit » - Turk: Oh, my God. My future brother-in-law is an evil genius!
Elliot: I'm gonna go, uh, check on "Sally"! Ha!... Okay, not funny yet. edit »
