Except that I don’t believe Ben was a photographer. That was just a hobby. He was in construction – remember that he nailed a board to his hand?

</div>

1. When did Turk first shave his head?

When he and JD didn’t get to see the Bulls play because they both brought sandwiches, not the tickets. Turk goes crazy and pulls out some of his hair, so he had to shave it all to match.

1. What is the name of the delivery man and what is the real life job of the actor that portrays him? (It’s very Scrubs related)

Lloyd, and he’s a producer.

All answers to my questions are correct except for “What song did JD’s brother sing in the bath?” (hint: It’s not an actual song, more like a phrase) (bonus hint: It was after Eliot supposedly dumped him)  
The cracker was specifically a saltine, though.

1. What 80’s actress played Elliot’s mother? For bonus points, in what field is her brother famous?

2. Who is Dr. Cox’s favorite hockey team?

3. Who did Jordan originally claim was Jack’s father?

4. Where did Eliot’s human beat box intern learn to do that? For bonus points, who did he dedicate his beats to when he demonstrated to Dr. Kelso?

5. What was the name of the brain-dead patient whose father was reluctant to allow a heart donation? And why was this name significant to the episode?

1. What 80’s actress played Elliot’s mother? For bonus points, in what field is her brother famous?  
Markie Post. No idea on the brother part.

2. Who is Dr. Cox’s favorite hockey team?  
Detroit Red Wings

3. Who did Jordan originally claim was Jack’s father?  
A Cabana boy or maybe a pool boy. One of those ‘boys.’

4. Where did Eliot’s human beat box intern learn to do that? For bonus points, who did he dedicate his beats to when he demonstrated to Dr. Kelso?  
He learned it in temple. He dedicated it to _someone_ in another wing, a patient, I think.

5. What was the name of the brain-dead patient whose father was reluctant to allow a heart donation? And why was this name significant to the episode? The patient was named Ray Bolger, and it was in the “Wizard of Oz” themed episode. Ray Bolger played the Scarecrow.

In that case, he wouldn’t give up his bench at lunch to Kelso. And, he would eat at it in the middle of a rainstorm.
