About

"Where Do You Think We Are?" is a memorable quote uttered in a scene from the American comedy-drama show Scrubs, in which the character Perry Cox discovers that he is at a funeral for his friend Ben Sullivan. Online, the scene has spawned numerous tributes, exploitables and reaction images.

Origin

The original scene comes from Season 3 Episode 14 of Scrubs titled "My Screw Up," originally aired on February 24th, 2004.[1] In the episode, Doctor Perry Cox (played by John C. McGinley) angrily blames John Dorian (played by Zach Braff) for a patient's death before leaving to attend his son's birthday party with his brother-in-law and best friend Ben Sullivan (played by Brendan Fraser). After Cox jokes about attending his son's party, Dorian enters the frame to ask "where do you think we are?", causing Cox to realize he is actually attending Sullivan's funeral. On May 23rd, 2007, YouTuber HaxTbh uploaded a clip of the scene which gathered upwards of two million views and 4,100 comments in the next eight years.
