Dr. Cox, J.D. and Elliot each take one of the new interns under their wing. J.D. tries to show Denise compassion as they comfort a wife whose husband is about to die. Elliot is upset when Turk passes over her protege, Katie, for a research project. Dr. Cox can't figure out why he hates Ed (Aziz Ansari). Meanwhile, J.D. can't get Sesame Street out of his mind.

Quote from Dr. Cox

Katie: Dr. Cox, I just wanted to tell you I really enjoyed rounds this morning. And I'm going to work harder so you don't just think of me as a, um, what was it?
Dr. Cox: A helpless, vapid, incompetent ass-kisser.
Katie: Actually, I don't remember the "ass-kisser" part.
Dr. Cox: That's cause I just added it now.
Katie: It's great. Makes it hurt more.
Dr. Cox: Great.

Quote from Dr. Cox

Ed: Dr. Cox! Got those test results for you, man. You were totally right about that old dude in bed four. Sy-Sy-Sy-Syphilis! I just- I used to be a DJ. Sy-Sy-Sy-Syphilis! Syphilis, syphilis, syphilis syphilis.
Carla: Wow.
Dr. Cox: Get out of here, Ed.
Ed: Right now?
Dr. Cox: Yeah. [to Carla] Come here. Why do I hate that guy?

Quote from Denise

Denise: You called me Jo?
J.D.: You don't like that as a new nickname?
Denise: Just a little butch. I like banging dudes, so...
J.D.: I've heard that's nice.

Quote from Todd

Elliot: Seems like you'll be a host to a variety of infectious bacteria or even fungus.
Turk: Plus, it's hard to look at. I recommend it's removed immediately.
J.D.: Forget it, you guys. I'm keeping the beard. Chicks dig on the extra fuzz.
Grover: Tell me about it. And you've only got it on two percent of your body. Hey, what is up, guys? Can somebody give me a high-four?
Todd: Coming at you.
Grover: No! [Grover is flung across the room] Four!
Todd: Grover five.

Quote from Dr. Kelso

Dr. Kelso: Perhaps, the problem lies within. By creating false hatred for others, you don't have to face the fact that you really hate yourself.
Dr. Cox: Where did you get that, psychobabble?
Dr. Kelso: From some skank at the mall. I chill at the food court on the weekend. Donny, I'm out. [catches muffin] Want one? I got pull here. Donny! [catches muffin for Carla]

Quote from J.D.

Elliot: Hey, what are you guys looking at? Oh, my God! Is it a picture of a poo?
Turk: No, that's not just any poo, Elliott. That's Izzy's first poo in the potty.
Elliot: Aww.
J.D.: I can't take my eyes off it. It's gorgeous. Uh-oh, I accidentally hit "Send".
[montage of people receiving the picture:]
Carla: Aww.
Janitor: They're back.
Dr. Cox: Jack's are bigger.
Ed: Just found my new screensaver.
Janitor: [to Snoop Dogg Attending] They're back.
[back:]
J.D.: My bad.

Quote from Turk

Turk: Okay, I want to thank everyone who applied. Unfortunately, I can only pick one. So Ed, congratulations!
Ed: Oh, sorry, man. I'm listening to Da Vinci Code on audio book. It's- It's riveting.
Turk: Ok.
Katie: Damn it.
Ed: [loudly] No way! That was that guy?

Quote from J.D.

J.D.: [v.o.] For me, I was just hoping to figure out a way how to tell Denise that the first patient we were treating together was going to die.
J.D.: Listen, Jo. Mr. Fremont's scan came back. And, his lungs are covered in lesions. He doesn't have a lot a time.
J.D.: [v.o.] I was glad I was here because I knew it would be hard for her to deal with.
Denise: Huh. Sucks to be him.
J.D.: [v.o.] Or not.

Quote from Carla

Elliot: No sex for Turk tonight.
Carla: Done.

Quote from J.D.

J.D.: All right, Denise. Here's the deal. We have to tell Mrs. Fremont that her husband doesn't have much longer. She's going to want us to do whatever we can to keep him alive. But we both know that put him on a respirator is just going to prolong the inevitable and eventually cause him more pain. So, I'm going to tell her the initial bad news. And then, I want you to come in and secure the "Do Not Resuscitate" order.
Denise: Okay, J.D.
