Sarah Chalke: Dr. Elliot Reid

Quotes 

• Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  Maybe Elliot's just not the right fit for me. I mean, I'm the kinda guy who likes stupid movies.

  Dr. Elliot Reid : Hey, let's rent 'Kangaroo Jack' tonight!

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  And I have uncontrollable hostility towards small rodents.

  Dr. Elliot Reid : Or we could just go shoot rats at the dump!

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  Dammit, she's perfect on paper! What the hell's wrong with me?

• J.D. : [Voice-over]  I guess the Soup Nazi was right, it is the little things that are important. Like when Elliot blows the bangs out of her face.

  [She does so] 

  J.D. : Or how she's the only person I know who sneezes with her eyes open.

  Dr. Elliot Reid : [doing so]  Atchoo. Ahem. 'Scuse me.

  J.D. : [Voice-over]  And that's when I realized that I really liked all those things about Elliot, but I didn't love them... and I didn't love her.

• Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  I don't think my hang-up with Elliot has anything to do with my sexy, amazing mom. And I'm not that much of a commit-ophobe. Maybe I just don't feel I deserve someone as great as Elliot because I have low self-esteem.

  Dr. Elliot Reid : Do you know that you have really nice hands?

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [He lets go of her hand and outstretches his]  NICE? Elliot, these are the hands of a god!

  Dr. Elliot Reid : Heh!

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  Fine, so it's not the self-esteem thing.

• Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  Unfortunately for me, I wasn't in love with Elliot. But I'm a man, and even though it was gonna be tough, I knew exactly what I had to do.

  [Out loud] 

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : Ready to go? I say we pick up some Chinese and hang at home tonight.

  Dr. Elliot Reid : Awesome!

  Dr. John 'J.D.' Dorian : [Voice over]  I was going to stay with her for the rest of my life.
