Scrubs

J.D. accidentally gets Kim pregnant, and they can't decide what to do. In the first episode of the season, they make a pro and con list about whether to have an abortion or carry the pregnancy to term. J.D. and Kim's coworker, Laverne, overhears them mention the word "abortion" and puts a statue of Jesus in front of them. In a magical realism scene, Jesus comes to life and says, "No abortions!"

In the second episode, their boss's ex-wife Jordan shares her abortion experience with them, saying she had an unintended pregnancy at 19 and it wasn't a big deal. Her young son overhears the story, and comically repeats to everyone around him, "My mommy had an abortion. My mommy had an abortion."

After watching their friends have a new baby, J.D. and Kim decide to carry the pregnancy to term.

Keywords: Past abortion, pregnancy decision.
