My Inconvenient Truth - Season 7

J.D. tells Turk that Kim and Sam moved forty minutes away because Kim took a job at another hospital. To make things even worse for J.D., his brother Dan shows up. Outside, a bicycling Ted yells at the Janitor for driving a gas-guzzler. Ted makes the Janitor watch "An Inconvenient Truth," which proves to be an eye-opening experience.

The Janitor volunteers to be Sacred Heart's environmental officer. J.D. is happy that Dan is there because it makes him seem like less of a loser... until Dan reveals that he's now flipping houses and just bought his first home.

The Janitor pounds a carpool sign into the parking lot and gives Kelso a citation for parking in that spot without another passenger in his car. Dan tries to cheer up J.D. by presenting him with a new car. J.D. is humiliated and tries to smash out the window, adding, "You're supposed to be the loser, not me." Dan tells J.D. that he needs to grow up.

Elliot gives results to a patient named Robin who passed out at work: she's a malnourished vegetarian who needs to gain some weight. Cox comes in and carries Elliot away to prove that she's being hypocritical with her patient since she's also underweight.

J.D. decides not to speak with his brother, which prompts Dan to become the "constant questioner," a character who does nothing but pester J.D. with silly questions. Elliot visits her patient and tells her that they'll both gain a few pounds together as the Janitor berates Carla for not being green.

J.D. asks Elliot and Cox if he needs to grow up. Cox lays into J.D., but J.D. doesn't like what he hears so he goes to Turk, who is using face paint to decorate himself as Harry Potter and as a basketball. Ultimately, Turk tells J.D. that he "definitely" needs to grow up. And when Ted catches the Janitor not recycling a can, he gives him a harsh lecture. Carla tells Elliot and the Janitor that they need to forgive themselves for being human.

J.D. asks Dan if he wants to visit Kim and meet his son. They get in the car and J.D. tells Dan that he's happy for him. At the hospital, Elliot, Kelso, and others own up to their mistakes while J.D. takes care of his son at Kim's place.
