‘My Jiggly Ball’
Season 5, Episode 4 - Aired January 10, 2006
Elliot refuses to allow Carla, Turk and J.D. to help her get her job back at Sacred Heart. J.D. struggles to find the positive in Dr. Kelso after he's asked to introduce him at a banquet. Meanwhile, J.D. is the only one at the hospital who doesn't seem to have heard of the game Jiggly Ball.
Quote from Elliot
Mr. Keck: I don't know if surgery is necessary. Last night I was in pain, so I went to a free clinic. The doctor there said surgery wasn't my only option.
Turk: Well, you're just going to have to get him on the phone and tell him I won't be second-opinioned by a clinic doctor who couldn't carry my jockstrap! Gimme some!
J.D.: Ho!
Elliot: [on the phone] Yeah, I think I know this guy. Is he a cocky black doctor with a white doctor following him around and looking at him like he's in love?
J.D.: You would make a pretty girl.
Mr. Keck: [on the phone] Yeah.
Elliot: All right, now repeat after me...
Mr. Keck: You can't decide for me, that's not your duty.
Elliot: And are they both trying not to laugh at the word "duty"?
Mr. Keck: Yeah. [to Turk and J.D.] Hey, Heckle and Jeckle, you know what? No surgery.
Turk: [on the phone] Who the hell is this?
Man: Where are my shoelaces?
Elliot: I said to tell him that he had a laxity in the peritoneal wall and that surgery was unnecessarily invasive. Was that so hard?
Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Cox: Mr. Morrison, I understand that one of our interns spent an hour in here telling you over and over that you are going to die. I would make him apologize personally, but I'm having him spend the rest of the day checking that countertop's heartbeat.
Keith: Sorry, Mr. Morrison.
Dr. Cox: Keith! I think Mr. Countertop would really appreciate your undivided attention.
Quote from J.D.
J.D.: Ah, checking Mr. Countertop's heart rate. [slams folders down] Memories. Do you know that, once, Dr.
Cox made me give every AC unit in this hospital a Pap smear? The wacky thing was room 403 did have some yeast issues.
Quote from Elliot
J.D.: So this is where germs are born.
Elliot: I cannot believe that you told these guys.
Turk: Elliot, she didn't. My patient told me that his clinic doctor was this blonde-haired woman who talked so fast and in such a high-pitched voice when she was upset, her words just eventually became gibberish.
Elliot: I really do not talk like that. I'm getting tired of you guys constantly saying...
Carla: Elliot, nobody but me can understand you.
Elliot: [high-pitched squeal]
Carla: That's just Turk, you know that's how he is.
Quote from Dr. Kelso
Dr. Kelso: There was one spot open in the study. I gave it to the rich guy because with the money he's now donating, I can reopen the prenatal unit.
Dr. Cox: What really bothers me is that you can look in there at John Morrison, a guy that you essentially gave a death sentence to and just not care.
Dr. Kelso: It's not my job to care, Perry.
Quote from Janitor
J.D.: Can I talk to you for a second?
Janitor: No. I'm busy cleaning. [all laugh] That one always kills.
J.D.: You remember earlier when I told you I'd never heard of Jiggly Ball? I was joking. I play it all the time.
Janitor: I like this. It's an idiot handle.
J.D.: Get off.
Janitor: As it happens, we're heading out right now to play some Jiggly Ball. Are you in?
J.D.: [v.o.] Just say no.
J.D.: Jiggle me in.
Quote from J.D.
J.D.: Turk, have you heard of Jiggly Ball?
Turk: Yeah, it's a game the orderlies made up.
J.D.: I've heard of it too. It's so awesome that we've both heard of it.
Turk: Yes. That- That's awesome.
Quote from Dr. Kelso
J.D.: Look, Dr. Cox, this intro is killing me. Have you seen Kelso?
Dr. Cox: Nope. But our new patient, Mr. Franks, in here is crazy rich, so I'd imagine Big Bob will be here momentarily to make love to his money clip.
[a whirlwind blows by as Dr. Kelso arrives at Mr. Frank's room]
Dr. Kelso: Hi. Bob Kelso.
Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Kelso: Listen up, bozos. That gentleman over there is basically a cash pinata waiting to be whacked open. So how about someone diagnoses him so I can get my candy?
Dr. Cox: I'll be glad to do it, Bob, if you'll do me a favor and put my patient, Mr. Morrison, in that experimental drug trial.
Dr. Kelso: Sure, what the hell.
Dr. Cox: Deal.
J.D.: [v.o.] Finally I had something I could say in my speech. Dr. Kelso was an angel.
Quote from Elliot
Elliot: Look, Lorraine, the sooner you let me have a look at that rash, the sooner we can get you back home. I mean, back on the street, which is your home. Hey, "Home, street home," huh? [laughs, snorts] I'm sorry, Lorraine, that was incredibly insensitive.
[J.D., Turk and Carla knock on the window]
Elliot: Frick!
