Another episode where Cox makes Syl cry. This was VERY HEAVILY recommended by you guys. So who am I to say no! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did even if it was a tear-jerker. "My Screw Up" is the fourteenth episode of Scrubs' third season. Ben Sullivan returns but it is discovered that he hasn't had follow-up visits to check up on his cancer for the past two years. It is Jack Cox's first birthday party and J.D. is upset when he finds out his former girlfriend Danni Sullivan, Jordan Sullivan's sister will be attending. Turk and Carla argue over the removal of Turk's mole.

To me it's also how the line illustrates that JD knows that Cox is fantasizing, something JD is intimately familiar with, and he often using it as a coping mechanism as well. He doesn't ask him what the hell is he talking about, but instead pulls him out of the fantasy gently because he's aware of what is going on, and that Cox's mind is elsewhere.

This can actually be rather accurate. Those in the Medical field know, fully well, that those on the brink of death suddenly have the most amount of energy they're ever had in order to finish their purpose, before passing away. Ben mustered what he had left of all his energy, his life, and thrust it forward to cover for his eventual passing. And since we don't really have too much prior history on Ben, we have no idea if the coloring - he has - is his natural color. It's especially prevalent in Long Term Care Clients. One day, they're tired all the time, the next they're incredibly energetic and they're seeing their people, their loved ones, and then the day after that, they're gone. Some slowly pass away while others will just go in the blink of an eye.

I am so dense apparently, that a number of years after the episode *the creator of the show* had to point out the thing about the camera to me. Maybe it was on Twitter... Honestly I forget. It was really hard to locate the fans of scrubs because I wasn't on Reddit. I found the fans of everything else. ❤️ What other show should you watch? I'm going to assume that they hit you with every good episode of Scrubs. And I'm also going to mention that somehow I missed my fallen idol and I forgot my lunch. These episodes aired in the spring and my brain just starts to mush in the spring. So there I was watching my deja vu and wondering what Dr Cox was coming back from. And I got one of them but I didn't get the other and then later on I looked at my DVR again and realized I missed one. I had to call my brother and tell him oops! The other day we were talking about whether anybody from Mad TV became famous and I said What about that girl in my lunch? I think I saw her somewhere else Oh right I saw her on scrubs. Sorry for the lack of punctuation Other series. Season 1 of Code Black is good. And then there is a great episode that is not in season 1, where Dr Guthrie, I think that's his name, has surgery. I wish I could remember the episode title. It might be Latin or at least pointed. I just need to go look it up. I always want people to watch more than just the pilot of something but you kind of have to watch the pilot before you watch the good episodes. By the way Scrubs had one of the best finales I have ever watched. And I mean season 8 not 9. As we all know that season 9 was a different show.

There is quite a bit of foreshadowing in the episode: - Ben says he'll carry the camera until the day he dies, and after Perry comes back from his errands, Ben doesn't have his camera anymore. - When Perry says that he doesn't attend parties where the guest of honor doesn't know what's going on... It works for a one-year-old's birthday party, but also for a funeral. - Carla saying it's been an emotional couple of days (although this also applies to her problem with Turk). - Talking about acceptance (the last stage of the 5 stages of grief). NOTE: We also see denial (Perry ''talking'' to Ben and JD also mentions denial right after he mentions that he died) and anger (Perry blaming JD for his death). - This isn't so much foreshadowing, but when JD says ''HE died'', he never directly mentions the older patient. - Also, after Perry comes back from his errands, only he directly interacts with Ben. Ben will speak, but nobody other than Perry actually responds to what he says.

Although unrelated to the situation, you also see bargaining portrayed. Turk asks Carla to take his name in exchange to remove the mole, then offers money to the doctor for saying the mole is inoperable. None of his offers are actually serious, and both are made to avoid a situation he doesn't want to happen.

When you rewatch this episode you notice when Ben dies. When J.D. says "20 minutes after you left HE went into cardiac arrest", he is talking about Ben. You can also tell this by the fact that Ben is no longer carrying his camera around after this. As he says in the beginning of the episode, he will carry around that camera "til the day he dies" ♥♥

Dr. Cox is built up to be this rock wall of a character. Everything that happens in that hospital, and he's always standing strong. Then you get an episode focusing on him like this one, and you see all the cracks in that wall. You see he's holding himself together by the skin of his teeth and is being held up by the people around him. He's easily the best character in this show. Not saying the others are bad, but that he's just that exceptional.

Remember, Scrubs has a nonlinear story. Cox's experience with his brother in law isn't concurrent with what's actually happening. Just short of an outright hallucination. Brilliant portrayal of loss, albeit devastating. Equally brilliant is how it helps establish Cox's humanity. Loving your channel by the way, thanks for taking the time.

I agree about Dr. Cox, I think it's because his character plays the archetypal "alpha male who had a rough childhood and hides his emotions behind an abrasive humor" so well, that the few times that you DO get to see into his inner world and he lets a little emotion out, you know that for him to show a little, he's tearing himself up on the inside, so all it takes is a couple of tears and it hits ya hard and breaks your ❤

Very important thing to note about this episode is exactly when Ben died, as we know for at least half the episode he was alive we other characters like JD reacting to him. Note that when JD receives the code on his pager the patients name is never specified and when he tells Dr. Cox he went into cardiac arrest he again never states the patients name even though we know that patients name is Mr. Taylor. That's because Ben died while under JD's care, which is why Perry ended up outwardly blaming JD when he was really blaming himself for not being there at the end. It's also very important to note that not once does JD complain about taking the blame even though he knew it wasn't his fault, because he knew Dr. Cox was grieving but we can see he was hurt because he later says "Thank you, I needed to hear that" after Perry apologises to him.

At the beginning of the episode, Dr. Cox asks Ben, "are you still carrying that camera around with you?" and Ben replies, "Til the day I die". Later, after Dr. Cox comes back from his errands, Ben no longer has the camera.

I love stories with this concept. There's an anime that released around 10 years ago called Magnitude 8.0 about two siblinglings trying to get home after a massive earthquake strikes Japan, leaving them stranded. The two siblings make it home, but suddenly, the older sister cannot find her little brother. It was at that moment she finally remembered, (half way through the series) her brother passed away from heat stroke. She couldn't deal with the trauma so she hallucinated him from that point on until she finally made it home and her mind could finally deal with the grief.

Dr Cox has those memorable moments where he show his caring side, but Dr Kelso’s moments are even fewer and farther between… and all the more moving. He’s of course mean and heartless, but he also knows he has to be the bad guy and make some very hard decisions in order to get the hospital going because of the healthcare system they operate in, and that takes its toll on him ; Ken Jenkins always delivers those moments flawlessly.

❤️ You’ve reviewed some of my favorite episodes of Scrubs, and I agree - when Dr. Cox cries, I cry. Every time. Irregular heartbeat guy was just a red herring so we would think he was the patient that died, and not suspect that Ben died. Watching it through a second time, it’s more understandable why Cox is so upset at JD about the death. It seems crazy he’d react like that over a random patient dying, but totally in character for him when you know his best friend died. Brendan Fraser did a great job selling it too - after Ben died, the only person who ever interacts with him is Cox, and Ben’s camera is completely missing from that point on. But he makes it seem so natural that you don’t even really notice until you think about it. At least I didn’t notice until rewatching.

I think you missed the implication that Dr. Cox's brother didn't die of leukemia, but had a heart attack. At 10:11 JD comes in to tell him he died, and the audience assumes it's about the old man with the heart condition, but it's JD telling him about his brother. As soon as his brother no longer has his camera is when he is a hallucination brought on by denial by Dr. Cox, which is this scene.

Think about how leukaemia is a cancer of the blood. What does the heart do? It pumps blood. His bro-in-law had relapsed but chose to forego chemo. Therefore, his heart was being inundated with abnormal blood cells.

This is quickly becoming my favorite medical react channel. I really enjoy your insight and you seem to be very empathetic which I really appreciate. If I could offer any constructive criticism, I would appreciate more medical insight in the episodes. For example, I assumed the cardiac arrest was reasonable because he had just been ignoring treatment for the past 2 years. I didn't realize it would manifest physically until you mentioned it at the end. I may be alone in my lack of medical knowledge but I would just appreciate more medical trivia through out the episode. With regards to more reactions please more scrubs. I love that show so much. With that aside, Code Black is another great medical drama based on the LA county hospital's ER, often touted as the birthplace of the US ER medical program and is one of the busiest level 1 traumas in the US. A lot of the first season is pulled directly from the documentary(the cases that is, and the doc is amazing for that matter)

A lot of the symptoms were in another episode. In the beginning, Cox asked if Brendan’s character saw a doctor. He hadn’t. Some of the subtleties were written do well.Like first seeing Ben with his camera at the start. He says he will be taking pictures until he dies. Later, when Cox comes back from running errands, he doesn’t have the camera. Brendan’s character died during that time while J. D. was running tests. Cox then buried himself into the work. Note Carla says he has worked 60 hours straight. Brendan’s character even says Cox is having a mental breakdown. See what they did? This show is goofy, but had some of the best writing.

In case you missed it, there was no patient with heart problems, it was actually Ben who died. That's why Dr. Cox came down on JD so hard. Also there is clear indication that Ben was dead, aside from when JD said the patient died, because no one ever addresses Ben directly again, only Dr Cox.

One of the greatest red herrings ever written tbh. And perfectly executed as well. This episode had so many points of quality in the writing and acting, it hits me every time. But I would add that the older patient of JD's did have heart problems, he was there to make you think it was the old man JD was worrying about who died (and never reappeared in the episode in contrast to Ben continuing to appear). It all just made you think throughout the episode they were struggling with the death of the older man instead of Ben. Lots of nuanced details like that thoughout the episode.

25:18 The look on your face... I remember watching this episode for the first time (although you say later in the episode that you'd seen it before but just didn't remember). Just broke me. What a gut punch. Even when I re-watch it, it gets me all teary-eyed. Watching my kids watch it for the first time was heart-wrenching. This show did comedy so well, but it absolutely killed when it came to emotional episodes. Holds up well to re-watching, too, 'cause it's interesting to catch all the little hints they gave after he died - no one else interacts with him; he doesn't carry his camera anymore; etc. Just all around excellent story telling.

If you're looking for something else to watch, I'd recommend Hospital Playlist. It's a Korean show with quite lengthy episodes so the full episode format probably wouldn't work, but I've found that it's very realistic in the way it portrays medicine (after the first episode anyway). Not sure if it would make great reaction content, but may be something worth checking out for your own enjoyment. Again, thank you so much for your videos!

I can't believe people already exist that don't know who Bob Saget is. He was the main character in Full House and was the biggest supporter of the Olsen Twin's career. He also hosted America's Funniest Videos, which was a HUGE event in every American home throughout the 90's. He was so clean cut and family friendly that it became shocking and hilarious to hear him cuss years later. Bob Saget was an integral part of every millennial's childhood.

He portrayed Danny Tanner on the sitcom Full House (1987-1995) and its sequel Fuller House (2016-2020). Saget was the original host of America's Funniest Home Videos (1989-1997), and the voice of narrator Ted Mosby on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother (2005-2014). He was also known for his adult-oriented stand-up comedy,[1] and his 2014 album That's What I'm Talkin' About was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album.[2]

This episode always breaks my soul. It evokes the most intense feelings of regret and loss… and many years later, it still breaks me just like it did the first time I watched it years ago. Btw agreed with what you said about the symptoms of a blood ca, but also i think we were seeing the episode in Dr Cox’s perspective -- which delicately hinted “denial” with loss. Even providers may be in denial esp when dealing with a very sick loved one. Dr Cox didn’t want to accept how sick Ben was - esp considering he wasn’t seeking treatment for such a diagnosis. Denial is the first stage of grief, after all…

27:34 sure we don’t get any closure on the old patient, but we were never really meant to. He was just the red herring. The person they want us to think died through, and the fact that Brendan Fraser, his character shows up right afterwards, is the biggest think it’s the old man who died and not him. And no joke, no matter how many times I see this episode, the line: “Where do you think we are?” always gets the tears going.

when the twist hits, and the viewer realizes who really died... then they have to go back and rewatch the scenes with Brendan Fraser and notice how nobody actually reacts to him. The closest being when Sarah Chalke looks behind her while Brendan is doing hand puppetry to mimic her, but she is only looking at where Dr. Cox is looking. It is a masterfully done episode to hide that from the viewer until the end.

We call it both on the emergency medicine side, it just depends in the states where you got your training. I’m a retired Firefighter/Paramedic the college I received my degree from and certs each instructor called it differently ECG or EKG. We had an instructor who called the blood pressure set up by the actual name Sphygmomanometer 😂 She was finally told by the EMS dean to stop as it was a test coverage question but not needed everyday! Bob Saget passed away in January 2022 he was on Full House. The joke refers to when he was the host of Americas Funniest Videos(AFV original host).
