- Scrubs S5E2, "My Rite of Passage": Scrubs follows inpatient hospital doctors and trainees. This episode is treated as a hospital medicine case when no specific diagnosis is named in the catalog summary.
- Clinical takeaway
- This is a high-confidence series/title-derived medical case used only when the catalog did not provide a more specific disease summary. iDRief links it to the most appropriate real-world medical topic without inventing a fictional diagnosis.

About the Episode
J.D. wants to show Dr. Cox and Dr. Kelso how to treat interns, but instead he finds out that they laugh at his bad jokes out of fear and respect. Everyone at the hospital is avoiding Jordan to get rid of her except for Turk. An aborted attempt to bond with her results in Jordan being conned by Sam, the drug addict. Elsewhere, Elliot's fellowship goes sour and she finds herself confiding in loose-lipped Carla.
