Scrubs Season 8 Episode 6 – My Cookie Pants
January 27, 2009
Synopsis:
Elliot and J.D. struggle to find the spark in their newfound romance, and Dr. Cox reluctantly considers accepting the job as the hospital’s recently vacated Chief of Medicine.
My Thoughts:
After My ABC’s I felt the show needed a bit of redemption. I mean the interns in the last one were such pricks that it just makes you mad. This episode was that redemption in some ways. Lot’s of funny stuff (though no Ted and Carla) and despite the fact I don’t think Elliot and JD should end up together, I will admit they were good together in this episode (must …fight… changing…mind…)
My Great Moments:
- the keyboard alarm… I want one now!
- the Janitor. Did even his grandpa call him “Janitor”
- JD finally grows a pair? OR at least he pretended to.
- JD’s ‘crazy’ jabs at Denise are all priceless.
- Turk steals JD & Elliot’s cookies. I knew the keyboard alarm would work!
- Kelso hugs Cox!!!
My Music:
Ending Song with Elliot and JD:I’d Rather Be With You by Joshua Radin
My Quotes:
JD (to Denise): I’ll see you tomorrow, if you’re not here I will just assume that demons dragged you downto hell to chew your face off.
JD: I really wish I wouldn’t have done that.
Elliot: Me too. (talking about JD’s romantic sex dance):
Janitor: That reminds me of what my grandpa told me when I was a boy. He said Janitor, every time and angry woman storms out another storms in.
Denise(Jo): Know why I got into medicine?
JD: I assume there was a flyer outside of football practice.
Dr. Cox: So this is what fear feels like. It’s kind of like being drunk but in a bad way.
My Inside Scoop:
Sworn enemies, Dr. Cox and Kelso meet on the way into the hospital in the morning. Cox is complaining about how the hospital is being run without a Chief of Medicine (henceforth referred to as ChOM). Turk is in surgery and oddly enough so is the Janitor. Kelso says he doesn’t really care about the hospital and this helps bring back Dr. Cox’s anger. JD is still working with Denise but feels she is pure evil and later at his apartment Elliot is there with fresh baked cookies and her cookie pants. JD eats all of his cookies since he is afraid that Turk will steal them, which he does later that night.
JD & Elliot have been back together for a week and haven’t’ had sex yet. They talk sweetly about it and then JD does a dance similar to one I do…which he and Elliot regret. Denise is still a heartless inter, but she tries a little. Good new comes to Dr. Cox when the board offers him the ChOM position. Jordan is thrilled and this also manages to fill her with rage. Cox tries to bait JD and when JD gives in Dr. Cox goes on one of his patented rants this time geared at the Elliot and JD relationship. Meanwhile, Elliot is going crazy looking for advice on how to make tonight special for JD and Carla (absent from this Ep) is on vacation there is a very confusing message left on her machine. JD finally get fed up with Denise and lets her have it over a patient who he does not believe needs to undergo a procedure. This seems to get through to her. Dr. Kelso also tries to get through, but it is to Dr. Cox about the difficulties of the ChOM job.
Still freaking out, Elliot shows up at Sacred Heart in her cookie pants to get advice from Turk on what JD’s sexual fantasies are. And all at one there are 3 people speechless. Jordan because Dr. Cox turned down the job, Turk because of Elliot’s question and JD because Denise ordered the test anyways and JD was wrong. JD apologizes to Denise, which makes her mad and the Janitor notices angry women storming out and in. Turks quits helping Elliot which freaks her out even more and JD decides that Denise is crazy. Seems that Denise was trying, she is just horrible at is.
After a short talk with an angry Jordan, Kelso tells Cox the he was turning down the job because he was a frady-cat. And as JD talks to Denise, he explains that every doctor has flaws and he can’t fix Denise’s, she will have to work on them herself. Elliot is still pestering Turk for advice and he tell her if she wants things to be different then she doesn’t need to try and make it special. Kelso tells Cox the he was the one who recommended him. In the end, we see that even though JD can’t fix Denise, he can give her a push. Cox faces his fear and becomes ChOM, and maybe even gains a good friend in Kelso. Denise take a baby step and Elliot makes it special by being herself…and JD loves it.
