The scottish is very sound and with the italian a popular alternative for the ruy lopez. It gives white decent chances to keep his opening advantage.

When does his queen get chased around?

I'm guessing he means 4...Nxd4 5. Qxd4, which isn't the most common line, and doesn't really result in the queen being chased since the knight that would normally attack this square is traded off.
