Plot

Patricia Wilk, the hospital's favorite patient, is finally going home. Everyone is happy that she's back to good health, but they're sad to see her leave.

Turk and Elliot conflict when she reveals she did not add him to her address book when she got a new cell phone. Their patient, Mr. Burton, is about to go into surgery and he fears he isn't going to make it; thus he gives Turk and Elliot a letter for his twin sons in case he dies. Sadly, Mr. Burton doesn't make it as he dies on the operating table. The two realize they had lost the letter and forge a note. They're caught in the act, but later bond over the experience.

When a bird finds its way into the hospital, Dr. Kelso orders Janitor to get rid of it to eliminate the risk of infection; Janitor complies, but grows fond of the crow and keeps it as a pet, naming it Sanchez. He uses Sanchez to further pester J.D. until Kelso catches sight of it. Janitor pretends to kill Sanchez, secretly releasing him.

J.D.'s hate for Keith Dudemeister reaches a fever pitch while it becomes apparent he favors another intern, Jason "Cabbage" Cabbagio (played by Shaughn Buchholz). However, J.D. is oblivious to the fact Cabbage is an incompetent intern endangering many of the patients. Ultimately, J.D. realizes the danger Cabbage presents and must tell him he is not suited to be a doctor.

Just as Cabbage leaves, he throws away a used medical glove that was left on the floor. He visits Mrs. Wilk to thank her for being so kind and gives her a handshake, thus infecting her just as Kelso feared.
