%%** Incidentally, this might be the only time in the entire series where she appears to consider J.D.'s opinions about something to be [[ItsAllAboutMe of similar importance to her own.]]



* BitchInSheepsClothing: Even the most generous interpretation of her lie to J.D. makes her come off a pretty selfish.

%%* NeverMyFault: She moves away for work even though J.D. wanted her to stay, then lies to J.D. about miscarrying their child. The only reason he even found out she was still pregnant was because he ran into her at a medical conference while she was showing. After J.D. tells her that he doesn't think he can ever fully forgive her for this or consider getting together with her romantically again, she breaks down crying because'' '''obviously''' [[InsaneTrollLogic her pregnancy has made her too fat for him to be attracted to her now.]]'' Never mind the perfectly reasonable reasons he has to not want to be with her.

The only reason he even found out she was still pregnant was letting the relationship end because he ran into believed her at a medical conference while lie made her angry and was why she was showing. After took so long to tell him that she lied. They get back together, but things end again during Kim's labor when it becomes obvious that J.D. tells her doesn't love her. Kim claims J.D. is the one who ended things despite J.D. having asked to not about it at the time and Kim being the one who told J.D. that she doesn't want to be with him if he doesn't think he can ever fully forgive her for this or consider getting together with her romantically again, she breaks down crying because'' '''obviously''' [[InsaneTrollLogic her pregnancy has made her too fat for him to be attracted to her now.]]'' Never mind the perfectly reasonable reasons he has to not want to be with love her.

The nurses treat this as though J.D. has done something truly horrible - even though Kim basically begged J.D. to get back together with her in the first place when he was reluctant to after she lied to him about miscarrying. Dr. Cox has a more even-keeled approach; he tells J.D. under protest -- J.D. bargained to do Jennifer Dylan's shot in exchange for a pep talk-- that he had every right to break up with Kim, and the fact that J.D. and Kim's relationship is over doesn't mean that their son is going to grow up as a broken person.

%%* * RomanticFalseLead: For J.D. The beginning and end of season 6 set her up to be J.D.'s long term and maybe endgame love interest. Unfortunately for Kim, J.D. realizes that, after she lied to him about miscarrying their child, he'll never truly trust or love her ever again. They break up during Kim's labor and Elliot is soon established as J.D.'s endgame love interest.
* TheUnfairSex: Despite the complete betrayal of his trust and despite supporting him early about Kim betrayal, the entire hospital (sans Turk, Dr. Cox, and Kelso) shames J.D. for refusing to even entertain getting back together with Kim solely because she's pregnant with his child.

* InformedAttribute: A rather unusual example. In the season 5 episode "My Extra Mile", Dr. Wen posts a list ranking the surgical residents by skill and Bonnie was ranked number one above both Turk and The Todd (who were 4th and 2nd respectively). This might make sense given her skill in her appearances, but she basically dropped off the face of the Earth after the season 2 episode "My Big Mouth". Given that this is the first mention she even still works at the hospital in over three years (and will be the last time she is ever mentioned) and she doesn't even appear in person, you just have to take the show's word for it that she really is still that good and that much better than the rest.



* JerkassHasAPoint: She's right that getting her fired from a job she moved her entire life over for, and technically performed well at, was sort of a dick move; as well that doing so was pointless because in all likelihood, they would just hire another jerk. The last part ends up not becoming true, thanks to Dr. Cox taking the job, who actually cares about the patients and his staff.

* JerkassHasAPoint: She's right that [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. She calls the main characters out for getting her fired from a job when she moved her entire life over for, life, bought a house in the area, and technically performed well at, enrolled her daughter in a nearby school for this job. However, given her LackOfEmpathy to all the hospital's patients to the point the doctors can't actually help most of them under her watch, you probably won't feel particularly bad for her. She was sort of a dick move; as well also wrong in her assumption that doing so was pointless because in all likelihood, they the next chief would just hire be another jerk. The last part ends up not becoming true, her thanks to Dr. Cox taking the job, who actually cares about the patients and his staff.



* LackOfEmpathy: She doesn't care about the patients as people at all, and sees the hospital as purely a business for profit.

** Gets flipped around in "My Inconvenient Truth". Dan took J.D.'s harsh words when they last spoke to heart and cleaned up his life. Dan got a new job that he is great at and earned enough money to moved out of his mom's house and buy his own house. He apparently has saved enough money that he can afford to buy J.D. a car a thank you for setting him strait. J.D. on the other hand hadn't been to see his newborn son in weeks and spent several months of the previous two seasons homeless because he bought a half-acre and only built a deck on it. Dan is forced to set J.D. strait the same way J.D. did to him.
