J.D. ventures into the world of post-divorce dating in Episode 5 of the “Scrubs” revival \u2014 only to discover he’s still not over Elliot.<\/p>\n

As chief of medicine, J.D. knows better than to date a hospital employee. But once he learns that lobby harpist Lily (played by recent “Shrinking” guest star Lisa Gilroy) is a volunteer, all systems are a go.<\/p>\n

Their evening starts at Lloyd’s Tavern \u2014 J.D., of course, orders an appletini \u2014 where Lily makes her intentions clear: They’re only having one drink… then they’re having sex. They head back to her place, where Lily drops the act, revealing that her “sweet, little angel baby\/harp girl” persona is just a ruse. She refers to herself as “Minerva: Divine Sex Witch.”<\/p>\n

At that point, J.D. realizes he’s in over his head.<\/p>\n

Lily then throws J.D. onto her bed and asks him to choke her, prompting him to deploy his safe word \u2014 “raisin.” As he looks to his left, he spots a pizza box on the bed. Lily quickly grabs it and plays it off, calling herself a “little slob,” but J.D. can’t take his eyes off it \u2014 the sight triggering a memory of when he and Elliot first started sleeping together in Season 1, Episode 15, “My Bed Banter & Beyond.”<\/p>\n

Cue the flashback.<\/p>\n

At this point, it’s clear that J.D. isn’t ready to date again \u2014 and he tells us as much: “I was lying here beneath this beautiful woman, and I actually felt nothing.”<\/p>\n

Soon after, we see him in the passenger seat of a car, apologizing. “I’m really sorry about this,” he says. “It’s just, the last time I was with someone, it really meant something. And I know after a divorce, guys are supposed to go out and hook up like crazy, but I think I just need a little time to figure out what I actually want.”<\/p>\n

We think he’s apologizing to Lily. But he’s actually talking to Turk, who picked him up after she refused to drive him home.<\/p>\n

Elliot, meanwhile, confides in Sibby that she doesn’t see herself dating again. She tried with “Dr. Chapstick,” whom we briefly glimpsed in the revival’s first episode, “but then it hit me: Maybe sex is overrated,” she says. “I’m just not excited about starting over at this point in my life. It’s too late.”<\/p>\n

But by the end of Episode 5, she appears to have a change of heart, when an organ transplant pilot asks where he can find a good cup of coffee \u2014 and she leads the way.<\/p>\n

“Only the heart knows when it’s ready to let someone in again,” J.D.’s narration kicks in as he spots Elliot with the pilot. “But sometimes, the heart just needs a little more time to heal.”<\/p>\n

What did you think of “Scrubs” Season 10, Episode 5, “My Angel”? And how’s the revival working for you as we hit the halfway mark of this nine-episode run? Sound off in the comments.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
