our histories

(S09E04) It was good to see an episode that had a bit more of a balance between the old and the new. Yes, we concentrated a lot on the J.D./Turk "Bro-a-Palooza" and Ted's departure from Sacred Heart. But we also got a fair amount of the students working together.

Do Lucy and Cole still need a little bit more of a personality infusion? Sure. But it's hard to keep up comedically with characters who have been developed over the last eight years. This episode gives me hope that eventually they're going to be able to stand on their own.

What happened on this week's 'Scrubs' episode, 'Our Histories' -- in 100 words or less.

It's about time the new kids on the block started working together as a team. As their faculty advisor, Denise told them that they couldn't go to a party Cole was throwing until they'd done final interviews with four terminal patients; however, Lucy's wouldn't talk.

At the party, JD and Turk had to accept their age. On his last day, Ted demanded recognition from Kelso for his service, rather than a drunken handshake.

They finally got the guy to talk by ignoring the form, and even got his old war buddies to come, while Ted got a proper farewell, if brief.
