Scenes with Doctor Cox 129

CDr. Cox

Gandhi, did you tell Jordan what I said about her wanting to cuddle? She doesn't like people to know that she actually cares for me!

Relax, she's pregnant, what could she possibly do?

[Jack runs up to Dr. Cox]

Man check!

[Jack punches Dr. Cox in the crotch and he falls to the floor in pain]

Good boy, Jack, good boy!

He can't possibly make this my fault, right?

Dorian. Dammit, now I'm doing it! [Stepping over Dr. Cox] Careful, he's gone fetal.

Wow, it has been an amazing six years. I wouldn't change any of it, would you guys?

CDr. Cox

I'd damn sure change this moment, and any other moment that was even remotely like this moment. [leaves]

Hey, Turk...

I'm not giving you a hug.

[narration] I hate this place.

CDr. Cox

I mean, what the hell? If I wanted my patients to be more depressed I'd just have them read Newbie's latest blog entry.

"Why being really lonely is sometimes super awesome."

Look, man, we all have those bleak moments where we swear we'll never bounce back. Like when I was seventeen, my mom walked in my room with a look that I had never seen. She said, "it's over Turk... Michael Jordan's career is over."

CDr. Cox

Is anyone a bigger idiot than you?

Is he the Black golfer?

CDr. Cox

Okay, I made you breakfast, the kitchen's as clean as a whistle, I'm gonna drop Jack off at daycare on the way to work, is there anything else I can do for you?

I need you to go to the video store and get me anything with Viggo Somethingsen. I need white chocolate, strawberry seltzer, peppercorn brie and a polaroid of the tomato plant that I planted last spring, because I'm worried it may have snails. Oh, and if you see that neighbor Lena from down the hall I want you to roll your eyes and say the word "slut" under your breath, but loud enough so she can hear, and don't forget to be home by 6:30 because you gotta give Jack his bath before you make my dinner!

CDr. Cox

But, when will I have time to kill myself?

Well, that's not my problem!

CDr. Cox

That was a coincidence.

What?

CDr. Cox

That knife! It just happened to go in the exact right spot. You do not get a "win" for dumb luck!

Look. If that's the way you choose to see the world, then so be it. But don't you dare try to take this away from me. I've been coming in here every day for 24 years, watching children die and seeing good people suffer. And if I quit believing that there was a bigger plan behind all this? Well, I just wouldn't be able to show up tomorrow. So just stop it!

CDr. Cox

I'm sorry.

It's okay. You'd be surprised, how many bad things happen around here for a reason.

CDr. Cox

I wish I could believe that.

CDr. Cox

I am not telling anyone that my daughter has been born.

But you just told Jordan that you're gonna...

CDr. Cox

Yes, and that's what we call a lie, or, when you're married, communication.

Dr. Cox!

You might want to knock, he's in an imaginary glass bubble.

[Lonnie knocks]

CDr. Cox

[pantomimes opening a window] What?

[looking down at Dr. Cox] I need help with a patient.

CDr. Cox

Twenty minutes.

[begins to walk away, turns around] Hey, how long does it take for an old woman to slowly bleed to death?

Before Izzy was born, if I saw a half-eaten meatball sub in the trash you better believe I would dust that bad boy off and go to town on it! But now, I'm not risking my health eating trash-food. I mean, unless it's a corn dog.

CDr. Cox

Thank God you've procreated.

CDr. Cox

I've seen the Wiggles live in concert... twice.

Did they perform "Big Red Car"?

CDr. Cox

They opened and closed the show with it. It was awesome.

[Jordan has forced Dr. Cox and Jack to dress in identical outfits]

Wow! You guys look great! I'm gonna get a photographer.

CDr. Cox

Jordan, I hate this.

Why? I would think an arrogant ass like you would love having his very own clone.

[Dr. Cox puts his hands on his head, and Jack copies him]

CDr. Cox

Up yours, Bobbo.

Yeah, up yours, Bobbo!

[Awkward pause]

CDr. Cox

Outstanding.

I can't believe I almost messed things up with Kim. What is wrong with me?

CDr. Cox

[walking by] You are an annoying, whiny man-child.

That question wasn't directed at you!

CDr. Cox

What question?

[Turk, Cox, and Kelso are in the doctor's lounge, unsuccessfully researching Joe's disease. Kelso's head is lying in Cox's lap.]

CDr. Cox

[noticing Kelso's head] Fair enough.

[Dr. Beardfacé walks in]

[calling] What it do, Beardface?

BDr. Beardfacé

It's Beardfacé! BEARDFACÉ, DAMMIT!

Calm down, Seymour.

CDr. Cox

If you wanna lose the nickname, you gotta lose the beard. Of course... then you'd be Doctor Face...

HA! Dr. Face.

BDr. Beardfacé

DAMN you all!

My kid's not even born yet and I'm already screwing up his life. I just want him to be really happy and normal, you know.

CDr. Cox

First of all, Newbie, we're talking about your kid, so the whole normal part was never gonna happen.
