You hardly ever play with Robo-Beau anymore!

It's a play on Sloe Gin Fizz, but Pete's glass definitely had a Slim Jim for garnish.

I guess nobody got the obscure Modern Family reference (Samm Levine played the character in question, so it was kind of germane… ah well).

I think Paul Feig at one point said that Ken's family was supposed to be just filthy rich, but they never got a chance to explore his home life.

Yeah, but are those closets sexy? I want these closets to wow me.

Yeah, J.D. was a real turd in that one, but I felt like it was more realistically-handled than in "My Brother Where Art Thou." He also actually used the phrase "Medicine, when you get right down to it, is just science." You just want to smack him, but for some reason that didn't bother me as much as it did for most of…

I will agree with your description of it as "a pretty ballsy denouement," but I still found it rather unpleasant to watch, especially because the buildup to it didn't strike me as consistent with the character of J.D. as we knew him before.

Yowch, someone take away my nerd card.
