Scrubs I'm Dominican!

[@triccele]

Funny thing: in the Latin American dub of Scrubs, they made Carla brazilian and all the lines she and her family spoke on spanish were dubbed to portuguese, so she remained latina but all the jokes about she being a forener still make sense.

[@jacquelinerozasmendez8023]

Hm, i didn't remeber that XD by the way, i was lookin' for the latin version but i cant found it : /

[@mmagalhaesg]

oh my god, that's so cool. I always wonder what they do with spanish speaking characters in the spanish dub, in portuguese they just keep speaking spanish (even though the jokes about characters not understanding them don't really make sense bc brazilians can understand a lot of spanish lol)

The coolest thing about this video is there's only music when that patient is in the scene. When she exits a scene they go back to talking or if she enters a scene where they are talking they will start singing.

[@ghosty918]

[@ghostmadlittlemiss]

I’m sure I read somewhere that the actress who played Carla had a damaged hip when she filmed this. If so, her dancing is even more impressive! 😃

[@Chiannachan]

ghostmadlittlemiss she had one - that’s why she was sitting down in all other scenes and they shot this one much later when she was ok again. 😀 if I still got it right.

[@saphiro007]

She had actually broke her hip before shooting, so she had to spend time healing her hip before she could do the tango again.

[@inanimatesum4945]

Beatles for sure since Ted sang 8 days a week

[@zhabtema]

And I think the second answer is 16 years. I believe in Season 1, Carla told JD that she'd been working as a nurse for 10 years. We also know she's 36 because she told the gynecologist in season 5 that she's 35. Likely got a two year degree and went into nursing at 20, worked for 10 years (which is why she is so distinct and popular at work), and then the last six years with Turk, JD and Elliot.

[@Defiring]

@@zhabtema it's 8 years, I think it was mentioned in one of the first episodes

[@zhabtema]

Defi I know that in one of the episodes of season 1 she said 10 years by that point, but it could also be a plot hole. Understandably, shows like this frequently change their narrative as they go.

But aren’t we seeing this from the patient’s perspective who’s imagining all the songs? Presumably they were arguing and some of the missing info is mostly just things she doesn’t know.

Turk was definitely a bad partner at times. Like sometimes he had his good moments, but then the next time he would hang out with J.D. it's like those moments were meaningless to him. I hate how they were made out to be a power couple when they were barely even a couple.

[@PittsburghSportsFan43]

Funny how they say in another episode that Turk and Carla's song is Isn't She Lovely, yet the song played at their wedding was Eight Days A Week (The Beatles). Turk says guys remember facts, but that doesn't include his wife's ethnicity, her middle name, or the artist that sang their wedding song. She wasn't even asking for the title, just who sang it. I like Turk but that's pathetic. Maybe the reason we never learn their second daughter's name is because he can only remember one, and Carla was off the show by then.
