"... His Dad just died... Dammit." That bit hits emotionally. Also, I love how Dan and Cox use watching sports, this masculine thing that they're comfortable with, as a conduit to facilitate JD's less traditionally masculine emotional needs. That was some pretty incredible writing and acting, it showed a real insight into the heart of a man.
That conflict between wanting to be there for him and not knowing how/having to find his own way to do it is one of those great moments that showed how Cox just acts like he doesn't give a shit or is "the cold type". He overcame one of his own shortcomings here to help someone he cares about, big move.
Danito No, it showed insight into the twisted idea of masculinity that is one of the problems in the USA. And how can anyone write such a nonsense as if feelings and emotions weren’t HUMAN and just the same in all humans?! You reveal a quite sexist view here.
@@Celisar1 You do know that men and women process grief differently on average right? Same with bonding, social interaction, and quite a lot of things. This is on average, not set in stone of course which is why JD has a less traditionally masculine process. It very much is not the same in all humans and it isn't sexist to say that and praise two characters for finding a way to comfortably bridge the gap and support a grieving man. There are no twisted problems here, the fact you think it is a problem shows your own sexism.
that scene in the end always gets me. How both his brother and his superior, mentor and father figure found a way to connect to JD. They both had a hard time because they cant deal with JDs more feminine and emotional character very well but they found a way to say things that JD needed to hear. I cant imagine any other scenario then this where Cox and Dan could say "iam proud of you JD" at the same time :D
Jd is a pissy little ingrate even though he didn’t come through he wasn’t obligated and the fact of the matter is he’s doing much more important LIKE SAVING HIS PATIENTS LIVES
