Added DiffLines:

The Janitor installs a toilet on the roof to help him think. He claims that it inspires epiphanies. While J.D. keeps it a secret, word soon gets out. The whole hospital staff starts lining up to use it for insights into their problems. Dr. Kevin Casey, who is still visiting, becomes fascinated and grossed out by it at the same time.


Elliott undergoes a HeroicBSOD and crisis of confidence when Dr. Cox observes that she's intubated a patient incorrectly and nearly killed him. She goes to Dr. Casey for help.


Now that wedding prep is in full swing, J.D. prepares to do right by Turk as his best man. A chance voicemail from Turk's brother, however, reveals that J.D. was actually the second-choice. Jealousy starts to fuel his actions.
