[obeykriss]

the face on Dr. Cox ' s face when he looks back too see Ben ..

[hollywoodliberal1]

The look on Dr. Cox's face when he looks back to see that Ben is gone... :(

[xscrubs4evax]

where do you get the video clips from cause i cant find anywhere to get them from

[gixerrider21]

@Martyr10, Joshua radin, 'winter'

[marfyr10]

What is the name of the song at the beginning of the funeral?

[Katingaan]

YES!

I AM THE KING OF GAY CHICKEN!

[benmoser11]

shower shorts, for the man who has nothing to hide! but still wants to...

[atzebww]

It hurts to see how the strongest of them all (Dr. Cox) can be broken by something as simple as life. ... but in the end, is what you have to accept the most important, no matter how alone you feel, no matter how painful it maybe is. With the help of those around you, you'll make it through ...

[m1leswilliams]

@atzebww I agree, if it was someone weak it wouldn't have been so powerful, as he was a complete hardass you feel for him 100x. Loss is terrible.

[KrikeBike]

So Ben dies at 2:50 and Dr. Cox is mad at him for Ben's death and the rest is his imagination?

[lack0Fdesign]

@KrikeBike yes

[benmoser11]

@KrikeBike yes, he refused to believe that his best friend really died but when jd said "he went into cardiac arrest" dr cox didn't want to believe it was ben so he told himself it was the old man. and that's why when the girl was talking about the patient that ent missing, when she turned around, she was confused because no one was behind her. and she never did the high and low thing, dr cox just imagined ben making fun of her for that which is why her mood turned serious a few seconds later

[AlexRhymeheart]

Poor Pinkie....

[ThaBatmann]

Thumbs up if you think that the music that the credits come up to takes away some of the emotion.

[benmoser11]

2:50 is when Ben died btw

[benmoser11]

"you have slept with both of my sisters.. that means you and i have something in common."

makes me lol every time XD

[ratedRandomstudios]

DAMMIT SCRUBS WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE ME SAD

[TheDrummerMB]

Best episode, but I cry everytime I watch it.

[korybpalacios]

in the ep where he finds out about the cancer. he says if he ever takes a self portrait will be the day he dies. and tbe funeral ep. at the begining. he shows cox all his pics and theyre all of him. big give away. i just caught it. and great ep. made me cry

[ForeversNever]

Is Ben dead the entire time?

[pecololek]

@ForeversNever from 2:40 on yes

[joesomebody01]

@ForeversNever No, at the end, the director yells cut, and Ben is character by a actor named Brendan Fraziser.

[Kazumaster]

For some reason, to me the most memorable sad scenes and episodes are always those in comedies. I guess because of the contrast.

This is one of those episodes. Futurama also has a couple.

[SandyLadie]

I do love this episode....so sad but great.

[Kendognavy22]

Funny how in life sometimes you take things with you that you don't expect. First time I saw this video I couldn't believe me how much a simple sitcom TV show effected me. Amazing... Thanks Scrubs. :D

[crixus11]

Saddest episode



[wriggler11]

love the puppet bit :')

[ShannenParsons]

My favourite episode of all along with my lunch. John C McGinley is a brilliant actor, hope to see him in new things.

[rockingred141]

gay chicken should be a sport!

[BestDamnLiifexD]

when dr. cox cries ..YOU KNOW THAT SHIT WENT DOWN :(

[BFMV1500]

my very favorite episode of scrubs, just a perfect episode of scrubs... tv at its finest!

[LAWG4]

WHY DID I WATCH THIS!?!?!?!

No... I've just been cutting onions.

[LugerCreations]

what a phenomenal show.

[DaNNLKUn]

7:50 heartbreaker scene

[ILOVESUPERWAFFLES]

6:30 thats when i break down </3

[Musicmate93]

the saddest part is when dr. cox frowns and turns around and notices that Ben isn't there.

[lagundafire]

14 people are heartless. Or didnt get the complimentary shower shortz wallet.

[ninjawongky1]

This is the best ever episode of scrubs. I could watch it over and over and over. Just so touching.

[fgtrsscc]

anyone know the name of the song thats playin in the background or did they just make it for the program :S

[AdmiralDonkey]

@fgtrsscc Winter - Joshua Radin. Joshua is a friend of Zach Braff and quite a lot of his music appears in scrubs episodes.

[thelostpiranha]

Gets me everytime. Every-fucking-time.

[pnarules]

Wow

[thetophatgirl]

this is such a sad scene :'( my favorite after the end of season 8

[nevershoutshye]

I like how Dr. Cox says the words on and time. (: oin, toim,

[eques101]

what episode is this?

[AdmiralDonkey]

@eques101 My Screw Up - it's the 60th episode, (episode 14 of season 3)

[moorezy94]

The saddest scrubs epispdes are almost always the best...

[Tomkoke]

iT ALL DOESN'T MATTER. THIS WAS THEIR BEST SHOW.....

[AndrewNWA]

:(

[lagundafire]

0:14 LOL!

[xLxExEx]

i remember when i saw this for the first time i was like OMFG WHAT?

[eoindotcom]

fuckin gets me every time. you don't shed a tear to this, then you don't have a soul.

[hollywoodwerewolf]

Brendan Fraser was great on SCRUBS

[WillMio]

You cropped just the right parts and didn't keep anything extra. Favorited.

[lilun2020]

ben is the one who died 20 mins after dr.cox left, not the old man in the wheel chair. If you go back and watch dr.cox from that point in is the only one who talks to ben.

[rizz360]

i could cry everytime i watch this :(

[caileanm2009]

if ben is died then how is JD abel to take that pic out of bens hand or see ben

[Hirschi74]

thats scrubs... make me laughter, make me cry. But, allways worth. Thank you.

[sebbis152]

This is the best episode, it made me cry.

[Kendognavy22]

One of the most powerful sence I've ever seen on TV... A masterpiece....

[outhacku]

Not gonna lie, I cried when I saw this for the first time...

Just the seriousness on J.D's face, and the first AND ONLY time you'll ever see Dr. Cox express an emotion.

[DaHiltster]

@outhacku If you watch the episode where Kelso decides to treat a rich guy instead of someone Cox wanted saving the song playing is The Fray - How to save a life, Cox shows some emotion at that point I suggest you have a look the Watch link is -watch?v=nxu98rkeXAU

[outhacku]

@DaHiltster

Thanks, bro.

[DaHiltster]

@outhacku It's Ok man =]

[JR2O1OJR]

why is the acting so atrocious on scrubs?

[AngelicMyuu]

ben playin with the photo in the befinning is ftw.

[r4ng3d224]

If you'v ever lost a broter you know what its like , i lost mine to a drunk driver he was walkin home an the driver passed out and crushed him against some railings he died 10mins away from the hospital it takes a lot of courrage to say i forgive an will forget but i did it has now made me stronder.

[blizzy00]

1:45

AHHHH YESSS

I AM THE KING OF GAY CHICKEN!

Most gay and entertaining game, EVER.

[cammyNpammy]

gayest moment in scrubs yet u still cry at the end

[OberAerztin]

Brendan fraser is amazing!

[TheLemywinks]

When you really think about it, Dr. Cox goes through some of the most unfortunate and depressing times, possibly moreso than anyone else in the series. It's hard to remember that when he's being sarcastic, but it's moments like this and the scene in "My Lunch" that remind everyone that even Dr. Cox has feelings too.

[Solblader]

One of the best episodes of Scrubs

For those who havent noticed it yet... Ben's already dead in the scene of 2:41

[icekingmonkey]

My names Ben Sullivan too so my friends always give me shit for this lol.

[15378ConnieH]

I don't really get it! I mean it's sad but didn't people see him because he said to JD to take him by the hand and so on and he saw him didn't he?

[Selana]

this episode was pretty sad

[fuzzlefluff]

Poor Dr. Cox.

D'=

[XxsilentoperaxX]

i love the noise ben makes when he falls off the table puppeteering eliot

[mrmalcolm49]

I thought Ben was Dr.Cox's son.

[Nuggetol]

@mrmalcolm49 I think Dr Cox and Jordan named their son after Ben (Jordan's brother).

[ajtony21]

@Nuggetol Dr. Cox son's name is Jack

[RavenSilvermist]

OMG this is the saddest episode!!!! And I love Brendan Fraser. I feel so bad for Ben right now. But the part where he plays puppets with Elliott is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[donchissy]

is that the guy that acted The Egyptian Mummy?

[AdmiralDonkey]

@donchissy If you're referring to the character of Ben, then yes. His name is Brendan Fraser, who starred in The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, etc

[TwinUndead]

@donchissy I'm sorry but you must have been exhausted (or drunk) when you typed this.

Friends don't let friends comment drunk.

[Foozer1]

For those of you not sure when Ben actually dies: JD is waiting for something from the pharmacy when he gets beeped.. He says "thats a code" and runs off. After this Cox blames him for someone dying. Me too thought he was talking about the old man Cox "delivered" to JD right before the code-beep. But it was Ben. Truely an outstanding episode.. I love it when Cox shows emotions

[YangGuardian]

@driftking74 The exact Scene where Ben does NOT have his Camera anymore is when you know he's been dead. In the beginning of the clip Cox asked "Are you still that guy who brings his camera everywhere?" The exact scene he died was, "20 minutes after you left..." They were referring to Ben, not the Patient

[DaSkarekrow]

yes!!! im the KING of gay chicken!!!

[JackRabbitSlim]

Ben was a character that only appeared in...what, 2/3 episodes? And yet somehow they managed to create a funeral scene that was more emotional, tear-jerking and heartfelt then I have seen done on shows where the characters have been going for years. And this from a comedy programme!

That is the mark of a great show. A wonderful blend of script, acting, dialogue and music came together to create that.

Unfortunately, imo, the latter Scrubs series rather failed to impress, but this was genius

[YangGuardian]

@JackRabbitSlim I think it's so tear jerkign cause you get a good idea of who Cox is through previosu episodes... Then you see how he acts with Ben and how close of friends they are to one another. You See Cox's better side... Then you see that his best friend dies, it's very sad to see him get so broken because of it. yeah man, the first like...4 Seasons were phenomenal ... But the last few are still good... We'll ignore the existence of Season 9 (aka. Med school)

[BMBfreitas]

Ben was the only person that Cox listen to and respected that much to care and to imagine his presence just to make him come out of his "mental breakdown" state was the prove that Ben was "that" friend that we all need ans fear to lose one day...the person that can take us out of any bad situation

[MattyTheBassist]

I'm a guy, and Johnny C's acting made me cry in this scene.

[lovedannysaucedo]

This is one of the best but still the most SAS one, i think i have seen this episode like 50 Times and i cry every time....

[bigcookie17]

the camera around bens neck is what signifies ben being alive im pretty sure that hes not actually there after the camera disappears

but omg god this episode is sad

[CrazyWaldo100]

is this season 3?

[Heartburnhurtsbad]

What's the song playing during Ben's funeral?

[AdmiralDonkey]

It's called "Winter" by Joshua Radin. Zach Braff is good friends with him and you might notice now you know of him that quite a few of his songs appear in the show.

[jasyn197]

@AdmiralDonkey thank you so much =D

[AdmiralDonkey]

Anytime :)

[Heartburnhurtsbad]

Yeah, that's true now that I go back and see other ones. Thanks though.

[gitarist666]

dr.cox is a great actor his peformence here is just so real and heartbreaking

[Fibah]

any1 else notice how most important characters who die die sometime when something fun is happening with dr. Cox children? birthday with ben and when laverne died they had a new baby

[AdmiralDonkey]

I can't say that had occured to me, well spotted. As that's only the case twice though, I would have thought it's just a coincidence

[7pulford]

truly fantastic episode, but in the actual episode, the normal credits tune plays over the credits at the end. I thing they should have done something special, cos it does seem a a bit too cheery. also the same for the ep called my philosophy

[lauralovesmuffins]

@7pulford they even have the normal credits tune playing over the credits at the end of 5.20, "my lunch", which is obviously a really sad episode too, and it has a heartbreaking ending. so it's kind of weird when you watch it on dvd. fortunately, they don't have the credits tune when scrubs is on TV.

[AnimeLoverJuan]

this was a bittersweet episode for me

i loved this episode becuase Brenden fraizer was in it

but i also hated this episode because everytime i watched this one, i would always cry and remember my friend who died from cardiac arrest.....

[Kendognavy22]

Sorry about your friend..

[Lavampeace]

All the episodes with Ben in them were so heartbreaking, but he remains one of my favorite characters.

Also.

Ben doesn't die in the first of the episode. He's the one who went into cardiac arrest, i think. That's why no one else notices Ben after that...

[copbphoenix]

@Lavampeace

He said he'd carry his camera "until the day [he dies]". He has his camera with him in every scene up to Cox being told about the cardiac arrest. After that, it never shows up again.

I'd say odds are extremely high that you're correct. Such hints are normal for writers and directors to drop into shows and movies..

[EuanMan13]

@Lavampeace shit i just got that, well noticed

[xKaboose]

@Lavampeace just wondering but how did they plan Ben's funeral before he died or at best the day he died?

[deathinreturn]

@xKaboose He died earlier in the episode - he was the one that went into cardiac arrest while Dr. Cox was gone. Notic how his camera is gone after that. "I'll be carrying this around till the day I die."

[MomentsInGaming]

@Lavampeace oh really? in which episode did ben go into cardiac arrest? i actly didnt miss a single episode, still i can't remember the one you mentioned, pls tell me !

[RyanEdge]

it's also worth noting that at the beginning Ben says he'll carry the camera "till the day he dies" and after JD says he lost him, Ben is no longer seen with his camera

[Kendognavy22]

One of the most powerful episiods I've ever seen on TV. Better than most movies....

[traviszildjianbarker]

Best scrubs episode there is. Gets me every single time

[Kendognavy22]

I agree.. Amazing....

[4ty5]

Notice that J.D actually talked to Ben when he took a picture of him. That leads me to believe that Ben was alive until the moment 'J.D screwed up' which meant Ben's death. So I don't think so that he was dead for the whole episode. Let me know what you think.

[AdmiralDonkey]

When I first saw this episode I realised straight away when he died and didn't even realise you weren't supposed to realise until the end. It wasn't until I posted this video and saw all the comments that I realised so many people don't get it.

Notice that Cox says something about Ben taking his camera around with him everywhere and Ben replies with "Till the day I die"... After JD says "30 minutes after you left he went into cardiac arrest" Ben no longer wears the camera, meaning it was him.

[urag]

the cool thing about this episode is that he's supposed to be dead already the whole time..

[finnishnin]

Shower Shorts

[finnishnin]

At what point does Ben die in the episode?

[GameOfYears]

@finnishnin

He was dead for the whole episode.

[finnishnin]

@GameOfYears Clearly Ben had physical contact with Ben at the beginning, I meant after Jd fails to rip the picture.

[GameOfYears]

@finnishnin

Yeah, it may be Dr. Cox having a dream, not literally sleeping but more like a hallucination.

I think this because the pictures have no background and Dr.Cox probably didn't see him again after he was diagnosed with leukemia.

[MyBooh15]

He dies when JD says the old guy died. It was actually Ben. After that, Ben doesn't wear his camera anymore also

[killerreggie89]

ehh he said at the beginning, that JD slept with both of his sisters? when did he sleep with jordan? did i miss something? xD

[finnishnin]

@killerreggie89 Halfway through the episode he first met her. At first she scared the crap out of him, then later he built up the courage to get her to listen to him and do the Physical and then she decided to have sex with him. She even ordered him to drop his pants, which he did.

[Jiemusu89]

Ben and Jerry

Ben and Perry

WAIT A MINUTE

[missloss173]

haha I love Ben/. "DARN KID!" It was such a shame he died. He was a brilliant character.

[soltanar]

winter by joshua radin

[Spiny1990]

This nearly makes me cry every time I watch it, My best Nate and I are exactly like Ben and Perry, respectively. Earlier this fall, our mentor, the man who made us who we are today, passed. The funeral scene just reminds me of him and I, sitting in a pew, bawling our asses off. One of the saddest moments of my life.

[ILMARINBAND]

does anyone know the name of the song?

[Crimsonkitsune333]

crying now...

[syryoyoboy]

theres only three things in life that can make a man cry:

no.1 if his child dies.

no.2 if his wife dies and

no.3 seing John C. McGinley cry

[IsothosestrasZephyr]

no parents?

[lolgal4]

I AM THE KING OF GAY CHICKEN

[PRIME45664ng]

I cried at the end, it took awhile, but I finally figured it out, at 2:48 he died, and he was doctor cox's conscience for the rest, until doctor cox realized that he isn't there. really great episode.

[PRIME45664ng]

he also didn't have his camera after 2:48

[Snegenad1]

Haha 1:03... "This is me at"-pictures like that are kiiiinda useless. =)

[jrrmv]

i cried when i saw the ending of ths episode 4 the first time. im 22, a guy, and i cry during sad moments in t.v. and movies. i cant help it. im proud

[Dracmoray]

same happens to me ^^

can't help it.

And I actually don't wanna help it.

[jrrmv]

good 4 u

[ajpcfe08]

Good on ya jrrmv, im 25 female and just as bad, but i wont get "wossed" at coz im female, nice to hear of a sensitive guy. xx

[jrrmv]

Thax. that means alot

[Dorsorfiliack]

@jrrmv i cried my eyes out as well lol even on season 1 where you find out he has lukemia i thought he was gonna die in that episode and cried :P

[lunchbox420able]

@jrrmv be proud my friend im the same exact way t.v movies you name it im a big emotional bastard and i dont give a fuck who knows

[MaikUniversum]

@jrrmv jesus would be proud too.

[Bladette85Zoe]

he dies at 2:48 right?

the rest is doctor cox imagining him...?

[jamesananash]

@Bladette85Zoe yeh thats right

[jrrmv]

yes

[oliverthaman]

what seasson is it?:)

[LauaM]

this is the 14 episode, "My Screw Up", from the 3 series *_*

one of my favourite instalment of Scrubs..

so sad..

[Bosseking]

One of the best episodes of Scrubs... If not the best.

[TheOneTrueKing2050]

He blamed him for Ben's Death as you can see Ben doesn't have his camera which he just said he would keep it with him until the day he died.

[fidoe89]

it was the death of ben sullivan! after that all the parts with ben are just his "ghost" or imagination or whattever you wonna call it. Dr cox loved ben so much he couldnt cope properly. this is a great scene

[milkiorange]

one of the best scenes..

[erikjusino]

i don't remember this part but what did doctor cox blame jd for??

[xXKonekoChaXx]

The death of that old man.

But I'm thinking that it was actually the death of his son?

[erikjusino]

maybe the death of the old man but if it was his son he'd kill himself

[xoxWENCHxox]

What is the name of the song at the end?

x

[kingsofdogs1]

Joshua Radin - Winter
