Plot
J.D. tries to teach Denise to use compassion while dealing with patients, and stops trying to make her better when she orders a test for a patient that J.D. said not to, which reveals that the patient had stomach cancer.
Elliot seeks Turk's advice on reigniting romance for a special night with J.D., and Dr. Kelso recommends Dr. Cox for chief of medicine, which he finally accepts after initially refusing. Kelso has to make Dr. Cox chief of medicine.
The name of the episode comes from Elliot wearing 'Cookie Pants' to cope with an expanding waistline from eating cookies.

Reception
Seth Amitin writes that the episode "wasn't the height of Scrubs comedy, but it was very funny at times....There were a couple of minor things that didn't fly, like why they had to show that flashback to Denise fluffing the pillow for the patient – seemed extraneous, it only happened a few minutes earlier. But the episode was a pretty good traditional Scrubs episode."[1]
