==Plot== |
|||
Neena Broderick, an attorney who specializes in malpractice cases, turns up at the hospital in search of discontent patients. Later, it turns out that a patient in need of risky surgery is her father. This leads Kelso, Dr. Cox, and J.D. to refuse to treat the man. Neena convinces Mr. Corman to sue Turk for ruining his tennis serve. After wrestling with the moral issue of treating Neena's father (and after Neena's flirtations with him), J.D. decides that the treatment should go ahead. |

==Production Details== |
|||
* Turk changes his cell phone number to 1-916-CALL-TURK (in fact, 1-916-CAL-LTUR, when written in the standard format). Unlike most phone numbers given in television shows and movies, which often use the fictional [[555 telephone number|555 exchange]], 1-916-CALL-TURK was a real phone number registered by ''Scrubs'' creator Bill Lawrence. Calls to the number are generally answered by a [[voicemail]] message about the latest news regarding ''Scrubs'', but a few surprised callers had their calls answered by members of the ''Scrubs'' cast and crew, including [[Bill Lawrence (producer)|Bill Lawrence]], [[Robert Maschio]], [[Sam Lloyd]], [[Zach Braff]], and [[Donald Faison]]. <ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=2477|publisher=TVShowsOnDVD.com |title=Scrubs - Listen up, Newbie: Scrubs IS coming! |date=November 19, 2004}}</ref> |

==Cultural references== |
|||
* In one of J.D.'s fantasies, [[Janitor (Scrubs)|Janitor]] is seen reading the newspaper in a manor-like living-room. While he reads, he says that "apparently there was some sort of election held recently." The episode first aired on [[November 9]], [[2004]], so this is in all likelihood a reference to the [[United States presidential election, 2004|United States presidential election]] held a week earlier on [[November 2]]. ''Scrubs'' did not air on election night, so this episode was the first to show after the election. |
