Quote from J.D.
Dr. Cox: Hey, Peggy? Yes, I noticed the turtleneck choice in August, and can only assume it's got something to do with that grapefruit you store in your trachea. Let me put your mind at ease: You've killed before.
J.D.: Who?
Dr. Cox: Do you remember Mrs. Carter?
J.D.: She died?
Dr. Cox: Three days ago of endocarditis. You didn't get blood cultures and you missed it. You happy?
J.D.: [v.o.] The weird thing was that I was a little happy.
J.D.: Sticky needle please!
Nurse Roberts: Here you go, Doctor. Oh, by the way, when this is over I'm kicking your ass!
Quote from Janitor
Carla: Thank you. [the Janitor doesn't let go of the stuffed dog] Thank-
Janitor: He likes the park.
Carla: Let it go.
Janitor: Okay.
Carla: Ew. Smells like Rowdy.
Janitor: He's Steven.
Quote from Elliot
J.D.: [v.o.] One of the hardest things around here is that sometimes you don't get to know how things end.
Dr. Molly Clock: What are you doing?
Elliot: Oh, just waiting for Mr. Phillips. He, uh, showed up the first couple of days, but he's missed his last three rehab appointments.
Dr. Molly Clock: I'll wait with you.
Elliot: Thanks. I got my eyebrows waxed.
Dr. Molly Clock: They look really good.
