Ep 6. My Cookie Pants

In the eighth season of the hit medical comedy Scrubs, episode six, titled "My Cookie Pants," the quirky and lovable doctors of Sacred Heart Hospital are faced with a number of challenges.

The episode follows the story of J.D., who becomes infatuated with his new patient, a young woman named Dani who is recovering from a suicide attempt. As J.D. tries to navigate his feelings for Dani while also providing her with the best medical care possible, he begins to question his own mental health and emotional stability.

Meanwhile, Turk is determined to prove to his wife, Carla, that he can handle the responsibilities of being a stay-at-home dad. He takes care of their daughter, Izzy, while juggling the housework and cooking, which leads to a disastrous experiment with cookie pants.

Elsewhere, Elliot is dealing with the fallout from a prank she pulled on Keith, who retaliates by ignoring her at work. As Elliot tries to make amends with him, she also has to deal with the awkwardness of working with her ex-boyfriend and fellow doctor, Sean.
