Episode Quotes

Nurse Carla Espinosa: [about Dr. Perry Cox, in his presence] Elliot, do you see the problem with trying to appeal to its human side?
Dr. Elliot Reid: He doesn't have one.
Nurse Carla Espinosa: Exactly! But what does he have?
Dr. Elliot Reid: A shaved chest, a closetful of tiny tee shirts, and the eyes of a madman.
Dr. Perry Cox: Ohh! I'm sorry! The correct answer she was looking for is a giant ego! I have a giant ego!
Dr. Christopher Turk: Couples therapy is killing me.
Dr. Todd Quinlan: I don't know how you do it - make love with your lady in front of some old dude who's filming you?
Dr. Christopher Turk: That's not couples therapy, Todd.
Dr. Todd Quinlan: Then what did I do?
Dr. Christopher Turk: You did amateur porn!
Dr. Todd Quinlan: [smiling] Sweet!..

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (continuity error): When Turk realizes, that he was hitting J.D.'s arm, he stops with his fist raised. In a next cut, from behind his back, his hand is open, with fingers apart. In a next cut en face he still has fist raised.

Trivia

  • Dr. Turner, who gets teamed up with Hooch for surgery, is played by Tom Hanks's brother Jim Hanks - presumably a reference to the Tom Hanks film Turner & Hooch
  • The name "Mildred W." can be seen at the top of the white board. Mildred W. is the grandmother of writer David Louis Feinberg.
