Yeah, no kidding. I was expecting to see the Song About J post again.
Did Horton put Amazing back into Grace before or after he heard the Who?
The crayon answer rocks and I’m envious I didn’t think of it first.
I won’t venture a guess and risk spoiling the amazing ending of that episode, but I bet I know which Scrubs you’re referring to. There are more than one that elicit that emotional response, but one definitely stands out(and is one of my favorites).

I don’t have a clue which episode of Scrubs actually. A couple come to my mind that make me misty-eyed thinking about it (one in particular) but I don’t think that was the one that made me cry since I saw that a couple of weeks back and my tear fest was like a few days ago.
And according to Horton, he would have been putting Amazing into Grace before he heard the Who, before he even knew what a Who was and even before the world ever existed–and if Horton’s enemies were evil it was because they were made to be so before they ever existed. ::sigh::

Actually the happy ending was finally turning it off and scratching it off my list. It was fun but absurdly dumb.

I concur… glad it was a free rental from the library.
