Turk hears about a risky therapeutic hypothermia procedure while watching SportsCenter, and he considers using it in an attempt to restore a paralyzed teenager's ability to walk. When he asks Carla for advice, she tells him to do what he would do if the patient were one of their children. Turk administers the treatment and later the patient moves his index finger, indicating that the treatment has worked, and Carla is proud of him, despite her anger after finding out Turk learned about the treatment from SportsCenter.
Jordan gets mad at Dr. Cox when he wears their wedding ring while Lady refuses to hold Janitor's hand, and this upsets and confuses the Janitor, to the amusement of J.D. Janitor begins avoiding Lady, fearing that she plans to break up with him. Elliot offers unsolicited advice to both Jordan and the Janitor, telling them not to be afraid of being vulnerable. Janitor sits down to talk with Lady, and is surprised to learn that Lady is simply a germophobe; Janitor learns that it can be fun to "steer" Lady away from germs with an affectionate hand on her shoulder. Jordan begins wearing her wedding ring as well, but forbids Dr. Cox to discuss it.
Production
According to Bill Lawrence, this episode reused some material of the never shown and only partly produced episode from season seven, "My Commitment", mainly that of Turk and SportsCenter, which was shot during the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike.[1]
During the end credits, Dr. Cox hurls J.D. onto a hospital bed, and claims that it is "Involuntary Luge". This can also be found on the Season 5 DVD set, on the first DVD, as a hidden extra.
