15 Best Scrubs Episodes
8. My Way Home (Season 5, Episode 7)
"I was just gonna keep on following that yellow line and hope I'd eventually get back home."
As a play on The Wizard of Oz, My Way Home is brilliant. As an in-depth look at life at Sacred Heart and its hardships, it's even better. The episode follows JD as he tries, repeatedly, to finish his shift and get home, only to be dragged back into the fire when new issues arise. Along the way, Turk puts his ego aside in order to find a heart donor for his latest patient, and Carla worries about becoming a mother.
The 100th episode of the show, My Way Home features numerous Wizard of Oz references, and between JD's rendition of Toto's "Africa" and the touching character development shared by JD, Turk, Carla and Elliot, it's easily one of Scrubs' most affecting and funny episodes.
