Scrubs (TV Series)

My Bright Idea (2006)

Sarah Chalke: Dr. Elliot Reid

Quotes 

• Elliot : Can't we just go home, put on our pj's and watch "Grey's Anatomy?"

  J.D. : I do love that show. It's like they've been watching our lives and just put them on TV.

• Elliot : Dr Cox, I've got a patient with osteomyelitis who needs a bone biopsy. Who do you use?

  Dr. Perry Cox : You've put me in an awkward spot because I'm a healer and I want to help, but speaking to you would acknowledge your existence, and you don't exist. So I'm going to address the stapler.

  [he leans over a red stapler on the counter] 

  Dr. Perry Cox : Hi stapler. The red is killer... By the way, there's a Dr Brownsfield who is just the most wonderful bone guy... What?... What's that, stapler?... Oh, no, she... she's an actual doctor, ah ah...

  Elliot : Neither of you are very funny!

• Elliot : So, I like to remember all of the carpal bones in the hand with a simple mnemonic device: Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, Pisiform, Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate and Hamate. Some Lovers Try Positions that They Can't Handle.

  Keith : Hey!

  Elliot : That was not directed at you, Doctor.

  [whispering] 

  Elliot : But you should stretch first next time we try The Whirlybird.
