In the season 6 premiere of Scrubs, entitled "My Mirror Image," the doctors at Sacred Heart Hospital are grappling with their own personal issues while trying to maintain a professional attitude towards their patients.
Dr. Cox, struggling with his own self-worth and inadequacies, is confronted by Dr. Kelso who wants him to attend a motivational seminar to improve his attitude towards his patients. Meanwhile, J.D. is grappling with his jealousy towards his former girlfriend and colleague, Elliot, who has moved on to a new relationship and seems happier than ever.
As the episode progresses, the doctors encounter various patients with different ailments, including a woman who is convinced she is allergic to sex and a man who accidentally swallowed a toothbrush. J.D. and Turk also participate in a rap battle competition, which provides some much-needed comic relief.
In the end, all of the doctors come to face their own personal demons and realize that they need to work on themselves before they can truly help their patients. Dr. Cox attends the motivational seminar and comes back reinvigorated, while J.D. accepts his own vulnerabilities and decides to focus on his own personal growth instead of obsessing over Elliot.
Overall, "My Mirror Image" is a poignant and humorous episode that highlights the importance of self-reflection and personal growth in the medical profession.
