Plot

J.D. wakes up next to Elliot after their first night together. The situation is awkward and Elliot packs her things to leave. She says it is probably best if they just go back to how things were. J.D. thinks about how crazy he is about her and wants to tell her at the door. She comes out and tells him to just say they should have sex all day, so they return to the bedroom.

Later, they get along in bed and joke about the awkward morning they had. Elliott thinks she should leave but he asks her to finish the pizza. They start eating a slice each and start making out again.

One day later, they arrive at the hospital but Elliott wants to keep this private. J.D. isn't afraid of showing how he feels for her. She thinks he just wants to show off in front of the other guys. Dr. Kelso informs them that the staff needs to talk thing at some psychologist research project. Dr. Cox also needs to talk about his reasons for become a doctor: chicks, power, money & chicks. But all those things are not existing anymore. Turk is looking for Elliott and asks J.D. but he asks why he would know where she is. He also recommend Todd asking her out as she isn't seeing anybody. Turk doesn't think that's a good idea but Todd decides to ask her out anyway. She declines and J.D. takes her to the closet where they make out. They also mke out on the roof, in the staircase, in the elevator and so on.

Back on the first day, the pizza has decreased. Elliott wants to have a relationship talk as they have now done it five times. They decide to be boyfriend and girlfriend.

One week later, J.D. is checking her out while she does a procedure. Dr. Cox claps as try to hide the fact they are together. He asks around and everyone knew it already a long time ago. At the cafeteria, J.D. & Elliot kiss and get interrupted. J.D. says they are jealous as they are not the hot couple anymore. J.D. makes a joke about them having sex and Elliot is offended. She doesn't think that's appropriate conversation in public. She leaves as J.D. continues to make immature jokes.

Two weeks later, Elliot is sick of J.D.'s laugh but he says it's not as charming as she is mad. At bowling, Elliot is frustrated that she is not good. J.D. doesn't want to critizise her but tells her she is really naurotic. Dr. Cox confronts Elliot that she hasn't done some tests yet. She wanted to wait a while longer if she could tolerate her low heart rate. They ask J.D. and he says Elliot is correct in theory but in practice Dr. Cox's method is better. Dr. Cox teaches him to always side with the girlfriend. J.D. finds Elliot and tells her he should have sided with her instead. He continues to make jokes and she doesn't like that he hides behind his humour and can't discuss relationship problems. He on the other hand, claims she never lets anything go. Elliot is getting tired of the situation and they both decide to break it off.

Back on the first day where they got together, the day is coming to an end and Elliot is finally leaving. They kiss at the door and say things are going great..

Trivia

• In a daydream, J.D. marks Elliot on his tallyboard of girls he's slept with, saying he's been stuck on #4 since med school, but he slept with Jordan just a few episodes ago.
• Elliot comments that she's going to need a "vagina transplant". As we know from the rest of the series, Elliot never says the word 'vagina', instead replacing it with 'Bajingo'.
• The title of this episode is a reference to the popular home furnishing store Bed Bath & Beyond.
• The episode was promoted as a special Supersized episode, running 40 minutes with commercials. As noted on the season 1 DVD special features, the Supersized status was originally a plea from the producers of Scrubs to NBC, as when editing, they strongly hesitated to eliminate the psychologist confessionals aspect of the episode. These scenes weren't important to the general plot, yet provided good character development, and the producers wished to keep the episode intact.
