History Awesome / Scrubs

--> '''JD''' (to himself): Must... keep... lower... lip... from... quivering.

** She then grabs him by his collar, and tosses his ass over the dinner table. Then nonchalantly sits back down, asks for more wine, and compliments the chicken. It says something that ''LaVerne'', who takes shit from no one, not even Kelso, is scared of her after this.

* Giving the Janitor a baby-blue uniform in "My Big Move" that makes no one take him seriously.

** In the alternate timeline, J.D. overhears an important conversation in the elevator about aortic rupture. He gets a EurekaMoment and tells Doctor Cox the patient must be suffering from that. Even though the patient dies regardless, Dr. Cox tells him SoProudOfYou for figuring it out.

* In season one, he's visibly jealous of another intern that is a better doctor. When said doctor has a breakdown on learning one of his child patients is going to die, J.D. goes to him on realizing he's suffering a HeroicBSOD and tries to comfort him. It shows that J.D. is better morally than he thinks he is.

* When Dr. Cox puts him in charge as an experiment during "My Butterfly," he gives Cox a string of orders while doing an absolutely ''pitch-perfect'' imitation of all Dr. Cox's condescending rants at JD, complete with Cox's unique speech inflections, verbal tics, hyperbolic suggestions, derogatory remarks about his masculinity, and addressing him with a girl's name. Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}.

--> "[After J.D. begins to do the usual end-of-episode summary outloud] Well, allow me to do that for you. In the end, when Mr. Foster started coughing up blood, the on-call surgeon was stuck in traffic, the nursing staff was busy losing the lottery, his original doctor was thanking a garbageman, and the covering physician was incapacitated. And what was Mr. Foster doing? He was dying in the hands of the interns. [[ArmourPiercingQuestion How did I do, Dr. Dorian?]]"

* "What {{has two thumbs and}} doesn't give a crap? Bob Kelso."

--> "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! And shut up! Okay? Who are you people to give me advice about anything? All you do is just ''bitch'' about your relationships all day long! (to Doctor Cox) And you know what? Glare all you want, Big Dog, okay, 'cause I'm not afraid of you. 'Oh, no! Jordan's only paying attention to the baby!' That must be so hard for [[ItsAllAboutMe Dr. Look At Me! Isn't it? Look at meeeeeee]]! (to Turk and Carla) And you two? Come on, you're arguing since you got engaged? Wow, [[SarcasmMode you're probably the first couple that's ever done that, ever!]] It can't be that you're just scared, is it? (to Elliot) And you! You! You know what, let's just--let's just forget for one second that a month ago you told me you couldn't be in a relationship with anyone. Because, for me, it's actually fun to watch you sabotage your relationship from the outside. It really is. Honestly? The only thing that gives me comfort, you guys, is while I'm sitting at home, staring at the ceiling, just wishing that I had someone to talk to, is knowing that none of you idiots realize how lucky you are! Ugh!"

-->'''Dr. Cox:''' I'm not gonna say that. You're ok. You might even be better than that someday, but right now all I see is a guy who's so worried about what everybody else thinks of him that he has no real belief in himself. I mean, did you even wonder why I wanted you to do your own evaluation?
-->'''JD:''' I, er, can't think of a safe answer, I just figured-
-->'''Dr. Cox:''' CLAM UP! I wanted you to think about yourself, and I mean really think. What are you good at, what do you suck at, and then I wanted you to put it down on paper. And not so I could see it, and not so anybody else could see it but so that YOU could see it! Because ultimately you don't have to answer to me, you don't have to answer to Kelso, you don't even have to answer to your ''patients'' for god's sake! You only have to answer to one guy, newbie, and that's YOU! There, you are evaluated... Now get the hell out of my sight, because you honest to god get me so angry I'm afraid I just might hurt myself.
