CRU - Doblers Ashleigh : Check out the yummy boy buffet. Casey : I don't have much of an appetite. Ashleigh : Casey, we are two newly-single college girls in a room full of boys and two-for-one drinks. It will never get better than this. Casey : Please, god, don't let that be true. Ashleigh : Come on, a little flirtation might do you some good. Casey : I'm just not ready to dive back into the cru dating pool. Not to mention the water's pretty icy for ZBZS. Ashleigh : Okay. Casey : But I can be a great wing woman. The goose to your Maverick. Ashleigh : Well, lock and load. We got two bogeys at 12:00. Casey : What are you doing? Ashleigh : I am waving at cute boys. Casey : There are two guys over there. One of them will have to talk to me. Ashleigh : Okay, Goose, I'm about to eject you from the cockpit. And I just got this top, so I'm gonna take it for a spin. Waitress : Hey, ladies, these are from the guys at the bar. Ashleigh : Well, thank you very much, forever 21. Casey : We can't accept these. Wing woman. Right. Waitress : Sorry. My mistake. These aren't for you. Casey : Looks like they've got the top gn. KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Roll call! All those present, say aye. All : Aye. Cappie : Great. Okay. First order of business. There appears to have been an unfortunate incident in the upstairs bathroom that involved corn. We're gonna need a pledge to clean that up. Spitter, hey, thanks for volunteering. Rusty : I didn't volunteer. I'm just the only one here. Cappie : Wherefore art thou pledges? Tell me you've come bearing gifts. Ben Bennett : Sorry, cap. No gifts. However, we did bring flowers. From the omega chi front yard! Cappie : Well, impressive feat, pledges. Wade, I think they're ready. Wade : Time to take it to the next level. Rusty : Initiation? Cappie : Hey, slow down there, spitter. You're talkin'at the speed of crazy. Wade : We meant your pledge project. Cappie : The hot tub, the back porch, even vesuvius. These were all built by prior pledge classes. This is your chance to write your own chapter in the Kappa Tau history book. Preferably one with lots of pictures for those of us who don't care to read too much text. Can you handle this? Pledges : Yeah... Cappie : I said... Can youhandle this? Pledges : Yeah! Cappie : There ya go! Ben Bennett : Hands in! Pledges : Kappa... Tau! Rusty : Yes! Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Casey : So please remember that showers longer than three minutes are strictly prohibited, as Lizzie has so thoughtfully reminded us. Lizzi : Water's the earth's most precious gift. Casey : And finally, Lizzie also reminded me that this week is national ZBZ big sister, little sister week. Apparently, someone forgot to put it on the calendar. Ashleigh : This week is gonna be so... Tense. Lizzi : Girls, few relationships are more precious than the one between a big and her little. It's like a delicate, fragrant orchid. And this week, ZBZS across our great Nation will be pruning their orchids so they'll blossom forever. Casey : So tomorrow, we'll be volunteering in pairs at the animal shelter. Thursday is our double date dash at dobler's, and friday will end the week with a celebratory tea. Meeting adjourned. Rebecca : We're not actually going to be participating in this crap, are we? I keep my orchid pruned. Casey : The events are mandatory. Rebecca, listen, I know we started our relationship off on the wrong foot. Mostly because you started out in the wrong bed. Rebecca : You really need to get over that. Casey : May I finish? But you did help out with the prohibition party last week. Plus, with Evan and Frannie out of the picture, hating you seems less necessary. And since we have to spend this week together, I was thinking we might try and be. Rebecca : Friends? Casey : I was going for non-enemies. See you at the shelter tomorrow. KT HOUSE - Graden Rusty : Hey, Fellas. You need help? Cappie : No. Go show your pledge brothers how to hack. Rusty : I don't know how to hack. Ben Bennette : Nice. Dude... Cappie : All right. Gather around the porch. All right, before you embark on your pledge project voyage, me and the wadester got a little, special treat. A gift, if you will, that we think will get you pumped about your journey. Wade? In the pantheon of kt greats, one man but stands alone. I'm proud to call him my big brother. That's right. You guessed it. Here he is. Egyptian Joe! Egyptian Joe : Touching stuff, cap. Wade, if you could turn down the music a hair. I still wanna hear it, though. This song slays. So... In'99, 40 years of pledge project sweat culminated in vesuvius. A pyrotechnic marvel so sublime that it birthed this school's sweetest rager.You know... The volcano wasn't the only thing blown that night. We blew minds. Melted hearts. And in the hot, hot heat of legendary accomplishment I became. Right. So... After we made vesuvius, my pledge bros and I forged the ultimate bond. Maybe you can enjoy a bond like that too. But nobody expects you to equal vesuvius. I mean, I don't. Cappie : We expect you to top it! Yeah! KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rebecca : My answer is yes. Cappie : Was the question... Wanna get naked? Rebecca : You asked if I'd go on a date with you. I've given it some thought, and I'm ready. Let's take this public. Way public. Like, let's go outside and make out on the ZBZ lawn. Cappie : Oddly arousing, but methinks there are ulterior motives afoot. Rebecca : I want you to know that the way I feel about you has nothing to do with Casey. Who, by the way, did something really scary today. Cappie : What? Rebecca : She was... nice. To me. Cappie : Un-freaking-believable. Rebecca : Will you be serious? Cappie : What's the big deal? If you and Casey sign a peace treaty, it will be so much easier for us to have diplomatic relations. Rebecca : Maybe you're right. I'm being stupid. I know. Why don't you make nice with evan chambers? Cappie : Point taken. Rebecca : I just didn't want people to think that I was dating you to get to her. Now she's all nice and smiley. Once she finds out about us, she's gonna hate me again, restoring peace and harmony to the universe. Cappie : Wow ! You are such a romantic. Rebecca : Trust me. I'm so ready to walk out that door instead of climbing out the window. Cappie : Bu-bu-bu... well, okay, before we. Before we face the parazzi, I need to tell Casey. I owe her that. I know you wanna make her hate you, but I don't. Rebecca : You're the one who suggested we stop hiding. Cappie : Casey and I have a past. But we... We have a future. Rebecca : Fine. But this is the last time I'm doing this, Rapunzel. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Calvin? Calvin : Hey. Two questions. One, is Rusty here, and two... You knit? Dale : Two answers. No and yes. Knitting increases hand-eye coordination and requires complex math. Calvin : Okay. Just tell him I stopped by, all right? Dale : Hey, have you given any more thought to my offer? Calvin : Your offer? Dale : To guide you back to the warm embrace of heterosexuality. Calvin : Yeah... no. Dale : I got a lot of free time on my hands. I could read up on the latest methods of conversion therapy. Just, just let me help you choose a better path. Calvin : So I chose to be gay. Dale : And I'm not judging you. I know that sin can be very seductive. Thus my three pop-up blockers. Calvin : So you think because I'm gay I wanna be straight? Dale : See, with that sense of humor, you're gonna be very popular with the ladies. Just let me fix you. Calvin : Okay, Dale. If you think you can fix me, I'll let you. Dale : All right. My room, 6:00 tomorrow. Your journey begins. Calvin : Our journey begins, my friend. Our journey. Dale : Don't worry. I can cure you of that. CRU - Street Casey : What about warren? Ashleigh : He eats like a caveman. Casey : Zach? Ashleigh : Republican. Casey : My phone's spent. Isn't there anyone you're into? Ashleigh : There is this hot foreign exchang student that winked at me today in class. Hopefully, that's not an insult in his culture. Casey : Where's he from? Ashleigh : Hotmanistan. You're way zen about the date dash. Casey : Because I'm going solo. I've got way too much on my plate running Zeta Beta. The last thing I need to worry about is finding a date. Cappie : Evening, ladies. Ashleigh : Cappie! What timing. Okay, I'll see you back at the house. Casey : Nice vest. Cappie : Yeah, makes me feel official. Actually, I was... I just finished up with my community service, and I was hoping we could chat about dating. Casey : I think I know where this is going. Listen, Cap, I totally owe you for the party last week. You were a really good... friend. Cappie : Thanks. And as friends, I just wanna let you know that... I'm dating someone. Casey : You are? S, so, who's the Lucky lady? Cappie : Rebecca. Casey : Rebecca who? Cappie : Rebecca Logan. Casey : Wow ! My little sis... That's. Fantastic. Cappie : Are you cool with this? Casey : The coolest. I. I'm like a... Polar ice Cap. I mean, Rebecca, she's just so warm and Fuzzy. Like global warming. You know, look at the time. I. I gotta run. Can't... can't miss to catch a predator. It's really good to stay informed. Cappie : Casey, are you sure you're. Casey : So excited... for you. So excited. KT HOUSE – Living room Ben Bennett : Okay, guys, pledge class project. Any ideas? Pickle : Got one. Ben Bennett : Pickle. Pickle : All right. We could wire the tri-pi showers with web cams? Ben Bennett : And end up defending ourselves to Nancy Grace? Don't think so. Rusty : I got an idea. We could make a Kappa Tau video game. We can design different characters for each brother and maybe put in a few easter eggs. Gonzo : Dude, none of us know anything about computer programming or video game design. Rusty : But... But... Brad, I could teach you. Ben Bennett : Gonzo's got a good point, spitter. The project sounds a little ambitious. Rusty : Gonzo? When did you get that nickname? Gonzo : When we watched muppets take Manhattan in the hotel. On our pledge trip to the mall of America. Rusty : You went on a pledge trip. Without me? Ben Bennett : Yeah... We tried calling you, but you dealing with some Jen K. Cris by dropping singles at a strip club with the brothers. Now, what I was thinking was what can we do, minimum amount of effort, that will produce maximum fun? Two words. Tire swing. Pledges : Yeah, man. Rusty : I, that's. I don't. I don't think that's what Cappie was talking about. Never mind. Never mind. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Hey, Casey. Casey : I'm having a bad day. Could we just skip to the tender moment? Rusty : Forget it. Casey : Fine, fine. We'll do the whole thing. What's wrong? Rusty : My entire pledge class hates me. Casey : Okay, you know what? Have a seat on your throne, drama queen. Rusty : I'm serious. It wasn't until we started working on this pledge project that I realized they have this whole life going on without me. They pull pranks on omega chis. They went to the mall of America. Casey : Okay, so you're not mr. Popularity. You never were in high school. This should feel comfortable, like putting on an old, musty sweater. Rusty : Casey, these are my pledge brothers. Right now it's like we're a boy band... And I'm the fat one. Casey : It's pronounced"fa-tone". Rusty : If I were one of your pledges, what would you tell me to do? Casey : Well, I would encourage you to try and make a good impression... Perhaps by giving a handmade gift. People are always impressed when you take the time to personalize. Rusty : Casey, i'm in a fraternity. Casey : You wouldn't be if you were one of my pledges. Now, I'm crazy late. Listen, just make a sincere effort, and I'm sure they'll give you a second chance. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Calvin, welcome to a very special purity pledge meeting. Calvin : Hey. Dale : You'll have to excuse sanjay. He's never seen a... Gay in the wild before. Man 1 : I have. My mom's in real estate. Calvin : So what are you guys doing here? Dale : Well, communication is key to the conversion process. This is a safe room where everyone's comfortable talking about their deepest, darkest yearnings. Calvin : So let me get this straight. Dale : You mean let us get you straight. Calvin : Funny. You guys get together every week. You talk about your feelings. And you don't have sex with women. Sign me up. INT. ANIMALS SHELTER Casey : Hey, little sis. Ready to bond? Rebecca : Wait a sec. Have you talked to Cappie? Casey : You mean your new squeeze? I did. Though he's not quite new. More used. Jonah : Are you guys the Zeta Beta Zeta sorority? Casey : That's us! Jonah : There's so many of you. I'm Jonah, your canine care specialist. Casey : I'm Casey Cartwright, Zeta Beta President. So what do you need us to do? Feed them, play fetch? Rub their Teeny, Tiny Tummies? Jonah : These kids are getting dewormed. Casey : Oh. Jonah : Not by you though. I got something even better for you guys. Meet Philip. Just rescued yesterday. He's a total softie, but he looks like he eats babies. People don't adopt dogs that eat babies. I bet if you could get his hair to look half as good as yours, he'd be adopted by today. Rebecca : Whew. Casey : Look at us... Washing dogs. Rebecca : Hey! Casey : Sorry. Rebecca : Just admit it. The fact that I'm dating Cappie's eating you up inside. Casey : I wish you both nothing but happiness. Rebecca : Thank goodness, because i'm bringing Cappie with me to the double date dash. I didn't want it to be awkward. Casey : No! No, I, it won't be. Awkward. KT HOUSE - Garden Rusty : Cap, Joe. Cappie : Spitter, i'm so excited, I cannot wait for the big reveal. It's like extreme makeover, fraternity edition. Egyptian Joe : Let's do this. Ben Bennett : Bhrosers, our pledge class has toiled nonstop to bring you the best in backyard fun. We're proud to present to you... The swing-a-ling. Beaver : Sweet! Me first. Yeah. Egyptian Joe : I'll be in my volcano. Cappie : The swing-a-ling? Yeah, catchy name for a Crappy product. What is this, an infomercial? Start over. Do better. INT. ANIMALS SHELTER Ashleigh : Okay, okay. Well, that's the most action I've gotten in months. Casey : Remind me again why I can't just ht her. Ashleigh : Because you're over Cappie, remember? Have to float above it, and you can't let it get to you. Casey : I need a date, ASAP. She's bringing Cappie to the double date dash. Ashleigh : I thought weren't ready for dating. Casey : It's not a date. It's... a defensive maneuver. Ashleigh : Okay. Well, there's the delta rho with the eight-pack. Or the tri-nu. Casey : Since the article, those houses treat us like we're radioactive. Does Hhotmanistan have a roommate? Ashleigh : I could ask. Also, we communicate through hand gestures. So it might take a while. Casey : I need someone fresh and exciting, a man so juicy that people'll forget Cappie and Rebecca are at the party. KT HOUSE - Graden Ben Bennett : This sucks, man. Rusty : Come on, guys. We can do this. Ben Bennett : I think I have a solution, but it all relies on Spitter. Rusty : Great. I know this video game could rock. Ben Bennett : Not the video game. You have to get us out of this. Rusty : Me? Ben Bennett : Cappie thinks you poop pearls. You have to talk him into letting us off the hook. Rusty : I think Cappie wants us to work together to come up with something great. Gonzo : Yeah, and we did. The swing-a-ling. We need you to convince him it was good enough. We're counting on you, man. CRU – Calvin’s room Dale : Hey ! How you feeling? Any less gay today? Calvin : Still pretty gay. In fact, you know, last night, I had the most vivid dream of Anderson Cooper... Dale : Ok, Ok. Let's just try a new technique, shall we? Calvin : Macho wear?Where'd you get this? Dale : Somehow I got on their mailing list. But their boxer briefs are actually quite comfortable. Calvin : They do look snug. Dale : So what I need you to do is flip through the catalog and stop whenever you see a man you find attractive. Calvin : Sounds fun. My, my. He's nice. What the... Dale : Just take a deep breath. It's aversion therapy. We have to link the stink of this rotten bana peel to your attraction to men. Calvin : Ok, Dale.This is ridiculous. Why does it bother you so much that I'm gay? Dale : Because you deserve to be happy. How can you be knowing you're not going to heaven? Calvin : So you know for a fact gay people aren't on the invite list. Dale : Calvin, they teach you that the first year of bible school. It says in Leviticus "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female". Calvin : I've read Leviticus. Dale : You have? Calvin : Have you? Dale : Of course. Calvin : Then you know that it prohibits people from getting tattoos, right? And from eating shellfish, from wearing clothes with mixed fabrics. Call me crazy, but that shirt looks like a poly/cotton blend. Dale : I don't have time to debate the scriptures with you. But I'm gonna leave this here for you to practice. DOBLERS Casey : So how did you two meet? Rebecca : I strooped him. Cappie : The stroop task. It was a psych test. She was my proctor. Casey : I see. Rebecca : First we played proctor, then... Casey : Could you... excuse me for a moment? Save me from Frankencouple. How's your date? Ashleigh : He's “très romantique”. Casey : So he's French? Ashleigh : He definitely kisses that way. Casey : Maybe he's carrying his passport in that fanny pack. Ashleigh : I think it's cute. Plus, it keeps his hands free. Oh, my god ! I'm such a horndog. Jonah : I am so, so sorry I'm late. It was really busy at the shelter. We rescued this litter of kittens, and I had to bottle-feed them dinner. Casey : Saving kittens. Isn't Jonah amazing? Rebecca : Amazing. Cappie : Speaking of kittens, I saw this video on “Youtube” where this... this cat just would not stop sucking on this guy's nipple. Internet's insane. Thank God. Lizzi : Greetings from your friendly neighborhood party patrol. I'm gonna need to see some ids before I let you have those beers. It's for your own protection. Name? Jonah : Jonah Perkins. Lizzi : Eye color hazel. And beautiful. And an organ donor. Jonah : Of course. Lizzi : Enjoy. Casey : Refreshing. KT HOUSE - Basement Rusty : Cappie ? You down here? Egyptian Joe : You gotta knock, man. Well, come on in. Hang out for a bit. Grab a bag. Rusty : “Fro-Below. Shampoo for your privates.” Egyptian Joe : I'm an inventor. Rusty : How's that workin' out? Egyptian Joe : It's a good life. All purple mountain majesty. A lotta guys my age are anchored to, like, family or rent payments. I go wherever. Tropics... Deserts. Back to Kappa Tau. Have fun, share my wisdom. Check in on my Vesuvius. Speaking of... Who installed the atmospheric destabilizer? Rusty : Me. Egyptian Joe : Nice. Can I make you a sandwich? Rusty : That's okay. I'm not really... Egyptian Joe : What are you doing down here? Rusty : I'm looking for Cappie. My pledge brothers wanted me to talk to him about the swing-a-ling... Maybe sell it more. Egyptian Joe : Me and my pledge bros had a crap first effort too. So I made Vesuvius. You gotta step up. That's what's wrong with the world. Rusty : But weren't your pledge brothers mad that you did it without them? Egyptian Joe : Hell, no. They loved me. I made us legends. A man with a big-ass brain like yours needs to take the wheel and drive 'em to the Promised Land. Rusty : I don't know. Egyptian Joe : Innovators walk alone. Do your own thing. Slap their names on it, and reap in the benefits. And by benefits... I mean women. Rusty : What about your speech? The forged bonds. Egyptian Joe : Cappie asked me to throw in some stuff about... bonding or blah, blah, blah. I love Cappie, but he's an idealist. You gotta be a realist. The pledges'll thank you in the end. Now eat your salmon. DOBLERS Jonah : I hope to one day become a veterinarian. Casey : Hmmmm. Jonah : People are so concerned about human health care.Did you know that dogs and humans are the only two mammals with a prostate? Casey : Kiss me. How 'bout another drink? Jonah : I gotta drive home. Casey : How 'bout just one for me? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the Lord today. Rusty : I haven't gone to sleep yet. Dale : Is something due? Rusty : Relax. I'm working on my pledge project. Dale : You pulled an all-nighter for fraternity homework? Rusty : I've designed... a homemade video game. It's called Kappa Tau-tris. It's like Tetris, but the shapes are all things from the house. Try it. See, you just drop the keg next to the beer bong. Dale : All right, I'm done. Rusty : Dale, I need to beta test it. Dale : Rusty, I'm not satan's joystick. JONAH’S HOME Mme Perkins : Good morning, sunshine. Jonah : Mom! We talked about knocking. Mme Perkins : I know. I was worried you were gonna be late for school. I didn't know you had company, or I would have... brought more lucky charms. Hi. We haven't been introduced. 'm Marie. Casey : Casey. Mme Perkins : Pretty name. Please, don't feel awkward. I've told Jonah if he's going to have sex, I want him to have it under my roof. Jonah : Mother! Mme Perkins : Mother... That means it's time for me to make my exit. We're leaving for school in 20 minutes. Jonah : 20 minutes. Casey : You live with your mother? Jonah : Yeah, just until I go to college. Casey : Wait... you're not in college? Jonah : No. But I'm taking ap calculus. Casey : How old are you? Jonah : I'll be 17 in two weeks. Which reminds me... My mom's letting me have a party in the backyard. You should totally come. But I gotta warn you, she's insisting I have a piñata. Casey : Listen...Jonah. I have to go... Jonah : My mom could drop you off on the way to school. Casey : Really, I need to walk. I crave my morning exercise. Jonah : Can I call you? Casey : Yes. In five years. KT HOUSE – Living room Ben Bennett : Are we off the hook? Rusty : We're still hooked. Ben Bennett : This sucks. What do we do now? Gonzo : Now we kick ass. Rusty : Wait until they play Kappa Tau-tris. Gonzo : You made the video game. Pay up. Pickle : It still has a few bugs. Ben Bennett : Go ahead and turn it in, Spitter, and you can be the hero. Pickle : And we... can go get fro-yo. Rusty : I don't want to turn this in alone. This is our pledge class project. Ben Bennett : This is your pledge project. Just like you won beer pong and you rebuilt Vesuvius. And we are kinda over it. Rusty : I don't wanna be the hero. I wanna be part of this pledge class. But I haven't had much experience being a team player. I was hoping maybe my brothers... could tell me how to do that. Ben Bennett : Don't be so critical. Pickle : Don't showboat. Gonzo : Don't call me Brad. Ben Bennett : And help us brainstorm another project that we can all be a part of. Rusty : Done. Ben Bennett : Ok. So what are some things every brother in the house enjoys? Pickle : Beer! Rusty : Reruns of cops. Ben Bennett : Chicks. Gonzo : We can build chicks! Pledges : What's wrong with you? ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Rebecca : Casey, over here! I was hoping my big sis could make it. Aren't those the same clothes you were wearing last night? Lizzi : Casey ? I'm concerned. Casey : Me too. About the environment. Which is why I like to wear all of my outfits twice before washing them. Water is the Earth's most precious gift. Ashleigh : Excuse us a moment. Well, At least one of us got our passport stamped last night. Casey : Jonah is 16. Ashleigh : Isn't that illegal? You might be on to catch a predator. Casey : I saw Cappie and Rebecca making out and I lost it. I got drunk, and I hooked up with some random guy. Ashleigh : Correction. Random boy. Casey : The point is... I let it get to me, and that's exactly what I didn't want to happen. CRU - Street Dale : You're looking very straight today. You ready for the next lesson? Calvin : Dale, you can't make me straight, all right? These lessons are useless. Dale : Listen, you can't lose faith, okay? Today's is the best of the bunch. All about attraction. Now just look at this parade of female flesh walking by us. Calvin : This is absurd. Dale : Listen, you gotta learn to appreciate the female form, the... slope of the neck, curve of the back. The heft of the bosom. Calvin : You okay? Dale : Yeah, I'm fine. Now, who do you find attractive? Calvin : She's cute. Dale : See? She is attractive. I knew you'd have an instinct for this. Calvin : What is she doing with him? She must like guys with personality. Dale : He doesn't look that hideous to me. Calvin : You find him attractive. Dale : Well, he's got good bone structure. Calvin : Wait. It all makes sense. Dale : What? Calvin : Have you ever thought that the reason you're trying to turn me straight is because deep down inside... You might be gay? Dale : Ridiculous. Calvin : Let's just look at the evidence. You don't have sex with women.You like to knit. You... Appreciate the male form. And I've seen you run. It's a little bit swishy. Dale : I don't like what you're implying. Calvin : If you ever need to talk, I'm here for you. Until then, you might wanna use this. CRU - Street Beaver : The world is full of hot senator's daughters, right? Cappie : That's the attitude. Dime a dozen, right? Come on. Come here. All right, I'll see you later, buddy. Casey : Hey. Cappie : Hey, Casey. Casey : You're a good friend to Beav, Cap. I'm sorry I haven't been a very good friend to you. Cappie : More friendly fre. Casey : Friends are supposed to warn each other when they're making mistakes. Cappie : Look, I understand why you dislike Rebecca. But I've seen a different side of her. Casey : Rebecca only has one side, and it's covered in scales. She's just toying with you to drive me insane. Cappie : So seeing me with someone else is driving you insane? Casey : Seeing you with her is. Cappie : You and I are done. You made that very clear last semester. So why do you care? If you say it's because we're friends, I swear, I will vomit into your ridiculously small purse. Casey : I still care about you, Cap. Cappie : Well, I care about her. Casey : Really. Is it her winning smile or the fact that she's the one person on campus you knew would drive me crazy? What is it, exactly, you see in her? Cappie : She likes me for me. KT HOUSE – Living room Ben Bennett : First, we gave you the swing-a-ling, which ended with a broken Beaver. So today, we're going to heal him and this house by giving you the thing he likes best. Beaver : You made chicks? Ben Bennett : Better. We made... beer with our brand-new brewery. Cappie : I have not been this impressed since Jennifer Hudson in “Dreamgirls”. You totally came through! Gonzo : Let's have our president taste the first batch of beer. Rusty : We're calling it Cappie-weizen. Cappie : Nice touch. Let's let the love flow. Is it clear beer? Rusty : Just wait. Cappie : Silly me! This is not about how the beer tastes. This is about you guys working together! Brothers, let's hear it for our pledges! Beaver : I'll drink that. Rusty : We're still working on the formula. Cappie : Way to go, Spitter. Rusty : I just worked on the fermentation. Pickle's uncle imports hops, and Jake made these coasters.He's now known as... Woodchuck. Egyptian Joe : It's good. I mean, it's no Vesuvius, but... still. Rusty : He really loves that volcano. He's just a little... Cappie : Endearing. Rusty : Sure. Cappie : Look, I know Joe seems a bit crazy, but we've been though a lot. If it weren't for this house, we probably never would have even talked to each other. But that's the beautiful thing about brotherhood. It makes you bond with different people outside of your comfort zone. Speaking of bonding with different people... Gonzo : Spitter, We're making a pancake run to Ihop. Rusty : I'll be there in a second. I'm just gonna finish... Cappie : No, no. Go celebrate. You've earned it. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Calvin : Spring cleaning? Dale : I'm removing every speck of gay from my life. Calvin : Tim McGraw. Dale : His jeans are too tight. It draws the eye downward. Calvin : Dale, you realize I was just joking, right? You're not gay. Dale : Yeah, I know, but that's what you gays do. You indoctrinate. If I don't stay vigilant, sooner or later I could end up with my own bravo tv show. Calvin : That's ridiculous. No one can make you gay. Just like no one can make me straight. It's not a choice. Dale : I can't accept that. Calvin : Why not? Dale : 'Cause it's not what I believe. Calvin : Well, isn't that what college is for... Challenging our beliefs? Pretty sure it says that in the brochure. Dale : What do you want from me? Calvin : I want you to accept that I'm gay and happy about it. Dale : All right. Accepted. Calvin : Thank you. Next time, we're gonna talk about that flag, okay? Dale : Okay, Tim. You can stay. CRU - Street Rusty : Nice tail lights! Casey : Rusty ? Rusty : Oh my God ! That's my sister. Ben Bennett : We'll save you seats. Casey : Let's pretend that never happened and deal with it later in therapy. Rusty : So where are you running to? Casey : Correct question is what am I running from? Rusty : What do you mean? Casey : Cappie didn't tell you? He's dating Rebecca logan. Rusty : They're dating! Casey : Yeah. Rusty : Maybe we could put a ht on her. Casey : I think she regenerates like the Terminator. Rusty : You okay? Casey : I know I don't have any claim on him.It's just... Cappie's always been there for me. Deep down, I felt better knowing that. Rusty : It's like a safety net. Casey : I guess so. And now he's gone, and... It's scary. Rusty : Can I give you a piece of advice? The reason people get scared when their safety net is gone is that they begin to doubt themselves. They think they can't do what they did before because that net's not there. I'm just saying that I wish I was as good as you are walking the tightrope that is college. Casey : You're really into this net analogy. Rusty : If you fall... Casey : If you say I will catch you... This conversation is over. Rusty : That's fine. I'm late for pancakes. Casey : Thanks, Rus. Rusty : Hey Guys, Wait up. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Rebecca : Running. Good idea. You were looking a little puffy. Casey : Listen, Rebecca, even though I question your motives, I'm staying out of your relationship with Cappie. I want no part of it. Rebecca : Sounds like you're moving on. Good for you. I mean, really... It's been two years. Casey : Just... one more... thing. If you hurt him, I will hurt you. Lizzi : Oh ! This is what big sis, little sis week is all about.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x13 - Highway To The Discomfort Zone"}	foreverdreaming
CRU - Street Calvin : Hey! Rusty : Hey. Calvin : I've been chasing after you for the last 100 yards. Thought you were trying to ignore me. Rusty : No. Sorry. I'm just really into this book. Calvin : Animal farm. Cautionary tale of power, as told through farm animals who overthrow their human masters. Rusty : Four legs good. Two legs bad. You know, just because you made a colossal mistake going back to Omega Chi doesn't mean I'd ignore you. Calvin : No. I thought you were just too embarrassed to talk to me. Rusty : Embarrassed? Calvin : Yeah, seeing as how you blatantly used me to get back at Evan. Rusty : Yeah, I guess we both got a little carried away. Calvin : Yeah, we did. One second. Cellphones ring. Rusty’s cellphone (Cappie) : All pledges report to the Kappa Tau house immediately. Justice has been served. Rusty : Everything okay? Calvin : Yeah, you know, just house stuff. If I told you i'd have to kll you. So... Rusty : Me too. I'll see you later. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : Okay, how's my top? Casey : There's some cleavage showing. Just think what your grandmother would want you to wear. Ashleigh : My grandmother bought me this top. Casey : Here. Just until we get out of the house, and then we're good to go. Ashleigh : I Miss looking cute. I Miss cute boys! Lizzi's rules are totally robbing us of our college experience. She makes us go to bed at 10:00... So I wake up at 4:00. And do you think it's fun watching all the drunk couples make out on Greek row when I know that I should be there? Casey : I know how challenging it's been to have Lizzi here. We've ht rock-bottom. But that means there's nowhere to go but up. Lizzi : Ladies, foyer, please! We have visitors! ZBZ HOUSE – Hallway Lizzi : May I have your attention? As a reward for all of your hard work and dedication, I'm very proud to announce that this saturday I have arranged for us to have... A mixer! So let's meet our guests and show them the new Zeta Beta Zeta. Casey : The Psi Phi Pis. Ashleigh : They're "pstoked"? Casey : I believe the "P" is silent. Ashleigh : Much like the cry of despair inside me right now. I think we've ht a new rock bottom. Psi Phi Pi : Hello. Credits KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Fellow defenders of the free and easy world. As you all know, we recently suffered a grave indignity at the hands of the enemy who seeks to destroy ourway of life. I refer, of course, to... A certain fraternity and a certain member of said fraternity who tipped off our good friend officer huck about the prohibition party. Ben Bennett : Omega Chi. Wade : Evan Chambers. Cappie : They are not worthy of names. But they do however, deserve our help. Beav? As a one-time photography minor, what really interests me about this particular study is that it is completely unretouched. Give 'em one of these, one of those. Give 'em some big teefers. All right, boys, line up. Let's see if we can't make this fine showpiece complete. Ben bennett, get up there. Time to shine. Come on. Rusty : Are we gonna sneak the picture back into the Omega Chi house? Cappie : Green as a young sapling. We're not going back to the Omega Chi house. Wade : We're gonna wait for Omega Chi to come to us. Cappie : Now... Get your draw on, son. We're goin'to battle. ZBZ HOUSE – Hallway Ashleigh : Every second that banner stays up here is a permanent scar on our reputation. It's like a stretch mark. Casey : I'm gonna need your help if we're going to fix this. Ashleigh : Anything. Casey : You're social chair. Do you think you can convince the Psi Phi Pis to back out of the mixer without making it look like they dumped us? Ashleigh : Challenging, but doable. What are you gonna do? Casey : I'll take care of Lizzi. Somehow. We've ignored her, snuck around her, gone along with her. It just keeps getting worse. Lizzi : I think a little higher on the right, and then it'll be perfecto. Ashleigh : You know, she plays it straight, but she's gotta have a past too. Maybe she's got, like, dad people in her closet. You did blackmail Rebecca. Casey : And if Lizzi were a diva demon like Rebecca, it would be much easier. But she's so freakin'perky and nice. KT HOUSE – Dark living room Cappie : Suit yourself. Won't be long now. Rusty : You said that two hours ago. Cappie : Is that fear I sense in you, son? Or are you just quivering with anticipation? I wish I knew what I was anticipating. Rusty : Why are you speaking with a southern accent? It's the chaw. Listen. Nobody can predict the twisted mind of the Omega Chi. But they're coming, spitter. They're coming hard. They ain't gonna come polite. Nobody's gonna be ringin'that doorbell. Doorbell rings. Cappie : Doorbell. Doorbell. We've got doorbell. Hot alert. Red leader? Wade : Red team is go. Cappie : White leader? Ben Bennett : White team is go. Cappie : Blue leader? Blue leader. Beaver : I ordered a pizza. And we all learn the lesson : pack a snack. Here. Go get the pizza. Rusty : What if it's the Omega Chis? Cappie : Then tip them poorly. And nail them with hot sauce. We'll be right behind you. Go on. Sweet moves. Rusty : Calvin. What are you doing here? Calvin : Sorry, Rusty. Rusty : Sorry for what? Calvin : Sorry for this. Rusty : Fish smell! Fish smell! Wade : We have breach. Cappie : Stand by. Stand by. ht the lights! Omega chis : There it is! Cappie : Go, go, go! Omega chi : Go, go, go! Cappie : Spitter, let's go, let's go! Omega chis : I can't see! Go, go, go Kappa Taus : We got 'em! Cappie : This is gonna be fun. Rusty : Omega Chis! Kappa Taus : These guys were just decoys! Cappie : Ambush. Mobilize. Mobilize! Rusty : Run! Evan : Go, go, go! All : Get down, everybody! Get down! Beaver : Hold the fence! All : Don't breathe it! Pizza man : Got a large meat lovers for beaver? Rusty : Over here. Keep the change. Pizza man : Enjoy your pie. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Lizzi : Egg whites and fruit? You're so healthy. Casey : Discipline has become a theme in my life, thanks to you. Deep down, I think we've all been craving the structure you've brought to the house. Lizzi : That makes me so happy. And I'm so proud of our little ZBZ kittens. Casey : As... are we all. And I'm thinking that it would really benefit the sisterhood to have a sense of when we... As ZBZ kittens. Are ready to, be weaned... From your... Teat? Lizzi : You wanna know what it's gonna take to get me gone. Casey : We don't want to be a burden. There must be other chapters in need of your considerable talents. If we had a chart, perhaps... Lizzi : A chart! That would be so cool! Casey : Yes. Lizzi : But no. This chapter's independence is solely up to my own discretion. And, in my mind, there's really only one thing left for you to do to prove that you're all back on the right path. You and I are going on a field trip. CRU – Psychiatric ward Casey : So you want us to do more philanthropy? That's it? Lizzi : Not exactly. It does involve a little selflessness, though. Casey : Frannie? Lizzi : Your lost ZBZ sister. Casey : I thought Frannie was insane last semester, but I never... CRU – Psychiatric ward – A few minutes later Casey : So, you've known where Frannie's been this whole time. Lizzi : Frannie contacted me almost immediately after I arrived at ZBZ. And she made it clear that she has deep regrets for her actions, and she wanted to make things right. Casey : And you believed her. Frannie : Casey, I sincerely understand your skepticism. Casey : You do? Frannie : I have been selfish and controlling... Well, most of my life. But being away has helped me gain some perspective. Take a hard, honest look at myself and figure out what I have to do to change. Lizzi : And since Frannie left, she has logged so many volunteer hours that if she were still a ZBZ in good standing, the cru chapter would be leading the race right now for the national philanthropy cup. Casey : Great. But... We suspended her for abandoning the sority. Lizzi : A simple majority vote can overturn that suspension. We'd hold the diamond ceremony in which Frannie pledges her eternal loyalty to the sisters. And then each and every girl would have to accept. Frannie : I wanna come back to ZBZ, Casey. Casey : And I want Jessica Simpson to stop putting out CDS, but you can't always get what you want. She nearly cost us our charter. Lizzi : Forgiveness is the supreme act of sisterhood. You asked me what you could do to regain your independence. This is it. Heal ZBZ's most painful internal wound. CRU - Street Ashleigh : Jason? Hi. I'm ashleigh. Jason : It's weird how we all look the same. Ashleigh : You're Psi Phi Pi social chair Jason? Jason : Yeah. Ashleigh : Sorry. So. Jason : You're desperately looking for a way out of the mixer. Ashleigh : Not... desperately. Jason : Why don't you just cancel? Ashleigh : Well, we're... Sort of under the thumb of this rules-obsessed woman who's totally out of touch with stuff. Jason : Like social hierarchy and that sort of thing. Ashleigh : No, that's not what I meant. Jason : Sure. So since you can't back out of the mixer, you want us to. Which is fine. Consider it done. Ashleigh : Well, you know, it's not what you think. Our social calendar is really limited, and we have to consider our entire year when we make plans. Jason : Any smart social chair would. Like I said, consider it done. Ashleigh : Fine. Did you just call me smart? Jason : Is that a problem? Ashleigh : I just don't want there to be any hard feelings here. Jason : There aren't any. Ashleigh : Well, I think there are. Jason : Okay. There are. Let's, have some coffee and discuss it. Ashleigh : Thank you! KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Do I still smell like fish? Ben Bennett : We all still smell like fish, spitter. Cappie : Get your daggum chins out your shoestrings. Okay, now. My Grandcappie used to tell me that the true test of a solider don't come until you're full of holes and ain't got no bllts left. Now, we may be bleedin' and shting blanks. We may smell like the stuff you find at the bottom of a catfish barrel, but this ain't over! Beaver : This ain't even close to bein'over! Cappie : It kinda feels over. Hot sauce in my chaw pouch. Pledge. Thank you. That's because you don't know about the counterattack, beav. Ben Bennett : What... counterattack? Cappie : The biggest one ever. Yeah. Wade : Who's planning it? Cappie : Beaver. Yeah. And me. And wade. And whoever else has the persimmons to pull themselves out of the pity pool and reload like a true Kappa Tau. Now, who's in? I said who's in? Ben Bennett : Yeah. All : Yeah... Cappie : Come on. Rusty : Hey, Cap, can I talk to you? Cappie : Yeah. Morale's low, spitter. What do you got for me? Rusty : I hate Evan as much as you do, for many reasons. But if we launch a counterattack, the Omega Chis are gonna counter our counterattack. And then we'll counter their counter of our counterattack, and it'll go on and on and on until dean bowman busts us or someone gets really hurt. I mean, it's like, what's the point? Cappie : What's the... What's the point in defending the honor of a bunch of guys who vowed to protect you as you have them? I'm sorry, spitter. I don't really know how to answer that one. Keep working! ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Frannie : And I really want to apologize for calling you stout. You're not. And Mandi, I am so, so sorry I told you your boyfriend was gay. Mandi : You never told me that. Frannie : Well... i was... Certainly thinking it. And I'm deeply sorry for that. Casey : The sisters are way too smart to buy her "thank you, India" act. Ashleigh : Although she does kinda look like alanis. What? Like with her hair like that. Frannie : Heather, if going plaid is your plan, then it's my plan too. Mandi : Is it true that if Frannie's reinstated, lizzi will be gone? Casey : Did Frannie tell you that? Mandi : Is it true or not? Casey : There would have to be a majority vote of the sisterhood to Even consider bringing her back. Then we hold this really complicated ceremony, and there the decision has to be unanimous to let her back in. I know you guys want Lizzi gone, but do you seriously think Frannie has changed? Think about how she treated you. Then ask yourself if you really want to go through that again. Lizzi : It looks like our friends over at Psi Phi Pi have made this saturday's big event... The biggest news on campus. I'm so excited! Mandi : I think I'm ready to vote. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : I can't believe no one else had the guts to vote against holding the diamond ceremony. I feel so antiwar right now. Casey : Lizzi's been so annoying, everybody's forgotten had bad Frannie really is. Ashleigh : And now she's back. Casey : Not necessarily. All it takes is one sister to say no during the diamond ceremony to keep her out. Ashleigh : I don't know much about politics other than it's the only time it's okay to wear buttons. But, as president, aren't you supposed to follow the wishes of the sisterhood? Casey : Not if it hurts us in the long run. And you're one to talk, by the way. What happened to getting the PPPs to back out of the mixer? Did you talk to their social chair? Ashleigh : Yes, I did. And they said they would back out. But then. I don't know. We ended up having coffee, and then... somehow the mixer ended up being back on. And... I don't know. Casey : You had coffee with the Psi Phi Pi social chair? And now you like him? Ashleigh : He's totally awkward and smart in the least attractive way. Still, there's something about him. Casey : Really. Could it be that... I don't know, he's a guy? You said it yourself. You miss boys. Ashleigh : I know that, but this is different. I've never met Jason before, and yet, it's like I've known him forever. And I know it's totally creepy, but at the same time... Disturbingly hot. CRU - Street Casey : Make a little room for me? Rusty : Might not wanna get too close. I smell like an ahi burrito. Casey : Let me guess... Fish oil and hot sauce. Rusty : You heard? Casey : I heard. Rusty : It's kinda stupid, huh? Casey : If it wasn't stupid, it wouldn't be boys fighting. You ever feel like everybody around you has completely lost their mind? Rusty : Last night when I was under the barbecue, I saw Beaver smearing mayonnaise on an Omega Chi pledge. Casey : People are who they are. Just because one says they're gonna be different doesn't mean they will be. Rusty : Same goes for pigs. Casey : See? You're all crazy. Rusty : It's an allegory using barnyard animals to criticize the russian revolution. How even the purest minds can be corrupted by leaders who are addicted to power. Casey : Sounds alarmingly familiar. Rusty : You read it? Casey : No. But Frannie's doing this whole born again nice person act, everybody wants her reinstated but me. Rusty : Wasn't she gone? Casey : She's back, and since I'm the leader of the resistance, which is basically just me and Ashleigh, Lizzi makes me go through mediation. Rusty : Mediation. Casey : Yeah. Rusty : That's actually a really good idea. Casey : I doubt it. Rusty : You never know until you try. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Lizzi : Phase one of mediation is airing of grievances. There can be no yelling, no interrupting, no scoffing, and no face making. And to avoid accusations, each point of interest must begin with the words "I feel." Casey ? Casey : I feel... that Frannie put the entire sisterhood in jeopardy by advocating a policy of dishonesty in handling our crisis with Nationals. I also feel that her abuse of chapter funds and decision to leave the house after being removed as president showed that the well-being of the sisterhood was not her primary concern. Lizzi : That was very well done. Frannie, it's your turn. Frannie : I feel... that... I have no grievances to air. Casey : Pfff. Lizzi : Casey ? Was that a scoff? Casey : A... hiccup? Sorry. Lizzi : All right. Casey, What, specifically, do you need from Frannie in order to accept her back? Not only into Zeta Beta Zeta, but back into your heart. Casey : I need... Lizzi : I feel. Casey : I feel. I don't know. That I need Frannie to... make things right. Frannie : I feel that... I can't do anything to change the past. But I promise... to do everything I can as a sister and a friend to redeem myself in the present. Lizzi : Casey, Is that satisfactory? Casey : I'm sorry, it's not. Lizzi : What's the problem? Casey : She doesn't mean it. How can I be the only one to see? Lizzi : Violation. Frannie : Casey. Casey : This is just not going to happen. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey : I'd like my privacy. Frannie opens the door. Casey : Perfect. Frannie : I know you're upset, and I honor that. I just thought if... We spoke privately, we could get underneath... what's bothering you. Casey : You are what's bothering me. There's nothing to get underneath. Frannie : I'm really trying here. Maybe you could do the same. Casey : Please. You and I both know that nice Frannie is just a new way to manipulate people. It's what you've always done. Frannie : You have a selective memory. Casey : And here are the memories I've selected. You wanted to give my room to Rebecca because of her father's private jet. You tried to sabotage my chances to become Omega Chi Sweetheart. You guilted me into staying with Evan after he cheated on me. Then when our relationship was no longer helpful to you, you broke us up. Are there some other highlights I've missed? Frannie : Look... I've done my best to take responsibility for my mistakes. But you act like I made you stay with Evan. It was your choice. It was also your choice to haze Rebecca out of spite, which put me in the awkward position of having to discipline my little sister. Who eventually... Went behind my back to Tegan and stole my presidency. Casey : I didn't steal your presidency. I did what I had to do to save the house. Frannie : You should have talked to me first. Casey : And you should have been a friend. But you were completely incapable of doing that. Frannie : You don't want me here? Fine. Good luck spending the rest of the year with Lizzi. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Garden Rusty : Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Calvin : This is a bad idea. Rusty : It's a great idea. Shouldn't we be able to be in separate fraternities and still have a normal friendship? Calvin : But right now, things are still totally agro. And Cappie and Evan hate each other. Rusty : Exactly. That's my whole point. Calvin : Now is not the time, okay? Please don't do this. Rusty : Calvin, I have to do this. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Hallway Omega Chi guy : You lost Cartright? Rusty : I'm not lost. I'm here to make a proposition. Omega Chi guy : My proposition is we clean the toilet with his brillo head. Evan : Let's hear what he has to say. Rusty : I'm here to make a case for peace between Omega Chi and Kappa Tau. Evan : Pipe it, guys. Come on, look, he had the nuts to walk in here alone. Give him a chance to say his piece. Go ahead. Rusty : I know there are plenty of good guys in this fraternity. There are plenty of good guys in Kappa Tau. So here's my question : why are we enemies? I'll tell you why. Because we let a conflict between two people or maybe three people become a wr involving us all. Are we just barnyard animals, blindly following our leader into a battle we don't even understand? Or are we intelligent people who see the value in an alliance between the two best fraternities on campus? If we work together, we can make this happen. It all starts with getting the people that have a problem with each other in the same room and helping them solve their diff... CRU-Street Rusty : Oowww !! Cappie : Officer Huck. Hey. How's the fungus coming along? Cop : Save it. He one of yours? Cappie : Our best and brightest. Cop : Who's responsible for the prank? I want names. Calvin : Think he's ratting us out right now? Evan : No. Cappie's gonna want revenge on his own terms. He's probably just telling Officer Huck some lame story to make him go away. Cappie : It's actually a physics experiment. Gone awry. Cop : A physics experiment? Cappie : How heat affects the molecular structure of lode-bearing adhesives, which, as, I'm sure you know, creates a highly volatile results set. Spitter, You okay, buddy? You hang in there, okay? Calvin : Kinda feel bad about this. Evan : He knew what he was getting into when he walked into the house. Calvin : True. Evan : Do you feel bad 'cause you really believe we shouldn't have done it, or because you're worried about what Rusty will think? There's a difference. CRU-Street Casey : Everybody always says that leadership is about compromise, I never thought I'd have to make a decision like this. Jason : You girls take everything so seriously. In the grand scheme of things, who gets to live in a sorority house? It's pretty meaningless. Casey : Excuse me? Ashleigh : Casey, Did I tell you that Jason is an astrophysics major? He knows Rusty. Jason : Could you get us some more macchiatos? Ashleigh : Sure. Jason : Single sht of espresso. Small dollop of foam. Ashleigh : Right. Jason : I know of your brother. But he's a... A polymer engineer. So it's not like we have a lot to talk about. Casey : That's weird. Jason : Not really. Polymers are as interesting as a dirt sandwich. Casey : What's weird is I feel like I've met you before. Jason : Highly unlikely. I am gonna go ht the head, Carrie. Casey : It's Casey. Jason : Right. I'm sorry. I'm so bad with names. Casey : Bad with... My God, that's it! Ashleigh : Where's Jason? Casey : In the bathroom. Remember how you said you felt like you've known this guy forever? Ashleigh : Yeah. Casey : Well, it only seems like forever. The truth is, you've known him for the past seven years. Jason is Travis. In a dork suit. Ashleigh : Jason is nothing like Travis. Travis was tall and hot. Casey : And... Ashleigh : And rude, arrogant and disrespectful. Casey : And had you fetching drinks you don't even like. He called me Carrie. Ashleigh : Oh my gosh ! I am so... daytime talk show material. What is wrong with me? Casey : Well, maybe you didn't find him so much attractive but familiar. We all repeat patterns. Ashleigh : No. I thought he was attractive. And that's a pattern that's gonna end right now. Come with me. CRU – Man Bathroom Jason : Wow Ashleigh : Listen up, Jason. Or should I say Travis? You... go find a tree. I spent seven years letting you make me feel like I wasn't pretty or smart or refined enough to be worthy. And I'm not gonna do it anymore. I'm not gonna be attracted this anymore. Because I am smart, and I'm hot, and nobody I spend time with is gonna disrespect me or my friends... ever. So you know what you're gonna do now? You're gonna go back to your house, and you're gonna say that as social chair, you think it's in everybody's best interest to cancel the mixer. Jason : Why would I do that? Ashleigh : Because, if you don't, I'll tell everyone what I saw. Or, actually, didn't see while I was in here. Casey : I think... We can go now. Ashleigh : Yes, we can. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Calvin : Hey. Just came by to, you know, see how you're doing. Rusty : And then what? You and the brothers gonna go club some baby seals? Calvin : Well, are they Kappa Tau baby seals? Because maybe... Come on. Rusty, it was a college prank, all right? You can't take it so personally. Rusty : It's funny you say that, 'cause I keep thinking how it would have played out if you'd gone to the Kappa Tau house. I never would have let that same thing happen to you. Calvin : I warned you, all right? I told you going in it was not a good idea. You didn't listen. Rusty : They abducted me and taped me to the side of a building. You did nothing to stop it. Calvin : It was a prank! Come on. Rusty : I've got studying to do. Calvin : Okay. ZBZ HOUSE – Lizzi ‘s office Lizzi : Since I'm gonna be staying until the end of the year, I thought I would make my room a little homier. And this danish furniture... It's so snazzy! And economical. Now, I am all about this farnsek bureau... Casey : Lizzi. Lizzi : But maybe the blogaard bookshelf would just be a more practical use of my space. Casey : Is there some other thing we can do as sisters to be independent other than readmitting Frannie? Lizzi : Wish there was, Casey. That's the only solution. Casey : I know you said forgiveness is the ultimate act of sisterhood. But how can I do something when every fiber of my being tells me it's wrong? Lizzi : Read this. Casey : I read this as a pledge. It's not like there's some ritual for behavior modification. Lizzi : Sometimes a second, closer examination can reveal things you didn't see before. Now, if I go with the blogaard bookshelf, I'm totally getting the smeglon nightstand. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Hey, Cappie. Cappie : Spitter, good to see you're out and about. Here, come check these out. Schematics of the Omega Chi house. First drawn in 1979. Then carefully added to and adjusted by each class ever since. Egyptian Joe, head of the plumbing after the wr of'04. The only thing we don't have is the air vents. Rusty : These will help. You still looking for a counterattack idea? Cappie : Well, I was waiting for inspiration to strike at any moment. Unless you've got something. Rusty : Yeah. I think I do. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : To reaffirm the spirit and foundation of the Diamond Ceremony, we will begin with the sacred Zeta Beta Zeta pledge of sisterhood. To the sisterhood, we pledge truth... Loyalty, and sority. All : “Unrestricted, our commitment.” “Unconditional, our allegiance.” “With hearts and souls that are forevermore” “Zeta Beta Zeta.” Frannie : With humility, I pledge my soul to Zeta Beta Zeta. Lizzi : I accept your pledge. And I welcome you back into my heart. Frannie : With humility, I pledge my soul to Zeta Beta Zeta. Mandi : I accept your pledge. And I welcome you back into my heart. Frannie : With humility, I pledge my soul to Zeta Beta Zeta. Ashleigh : I accept your pledge and welcome you back into my heart. Frannie : With humility, I pledge my soul to Zeta Beta Zeta. Casey : I accept your pledge and welcome you back into my heart. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Evan : Stop it. You gotta stop. Casey... That's a cow! That's a cow! OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Garden Cappie : Truly inspired idea, spitter. How do you feel? Rusty : Good. I feel good. Guess we'd better reinforce the house before they strike back. Evan : Hey! Cappie : Too late. Quite a mixer you boys must have had last night. Is this a new sorority, or... Evan : You will pay for this. Cop : Chambers. Dean bowman wants names and specifics. Evan : Yeah. Cappie : You take us down, and you will go with us. Or... Evan : Or what? Cappie : Or... we let things cool off, turn our swords into plowshares for the time being. Evan : For the time being. Cop : Chambers! Evan : For the time being. Wade : We're gonna start farming? Cappie : Perhaps, Wade. Perhaps. But it will be the memories of this victory that sustain us until the fires of wr burn again. Let's go get some pizza. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Frannie : Who better to be my welcoming committee? I thought I'd start moving back in gradually. I'm so glad we were able to come to this agreement. It's good to be home. Casey : I'm glad too. But I wish you had called before you packed everything up. Frannie : Is Lizzi still in my room? I don't mind waiting. Casey : Are you familiar with rule 57q in the ZBZ book of rules and ritual? Frannie : 57q. Casey : It states that the ZBZ president has the right To put recently reinstated members on probation. Frannie : It does. Casey : Yes. And since actives on probation aren't allowed to live in the house, I'm sorry to tell you that ZBZ rules prevent you from moving in today. Frannie : Are you sorry... Casey? Casey : The agreement was that you would be reinstated. And you are. But for the good of the sisterhood, we need to be sure that you really have changed. Frannie : Well, whatever's best for the sisterhood. Casey : I'm glad you understand. Frannie : I do. And besides... You can't keep me on probation for more than three months. I believe that's rule 62. CRU - Street Cappie : You smell that, spitter? Rusty : It's the smell of peace. Cappie : I'm actually talking about the coffee here. Having a little moment. Yes, absolutely. Vacationing off the sumatran coast two summers ago... Alonecon me bella mentor, altagracia. Rusty : Sumatra is an Island off Indonesia. People there speak Malaysian. Cappie : They do? Rusty : Yeah. Cappie : Well, that explains a lot. Rusty : Hey. Calvin : Hey. Rusty : Have you ever had any friends outside the fraternity? Cappie : Sure. Yeah. Jana. Julia. Rachel. She was an especially good friend. Rusty : No, no. I mean guy friends. Cappie : Right... Then the answer's no. Rusty : Well, weren't you friends with Evan? Cappie : Yes. Evan Longoria and I roomed together freshman year, as you well know. But, there were numerous factors that led to our breakup. Friendships in college are sort of like Cro-Magnon man. They either evolve or they become extinct. Now, for you and Calvin, it's all gonna depend on how much energy you're willing to put into adapting. Rusty : Yeah. I guess it's hard knowing whether we're evolving or dying out. Cappie : Well, only time will tell. Meanwhile... Rusty : Dobler's. Cappie : See? You are adapting. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : I wanted to return this. And say thank you. Guess I finally realized I could use the rules to help me get what I want instead of trying to figure out a way to go around them. Lizzi : You're becoming an excellent leader, Casey. And I want you to keep the book. Casey : One question. Were you specifically thinking of rule 57q when you told me to reread the book? Lizzi : Rule 57q. I'm not familiar. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Casey : So... where are you off to? Lizzi : Oklahoma chapter. Hazing gone haywire. Farewell, my sisters. Keep the principles of Zeta Beta Zeta close to your heart always. Farewell. All : Bye! Bye! Ashleigh : I sure am gonna miss Lizzi. Casey : Really? Ashleigh : Not at all.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x14 - w*r and Peace"}	foreverdreaming
TODAY - ZBZ HOUSE – Dining-room Casey : Fellow sisters, welcome to the first meeting of the post-Lizzie era. Congratulations, we're on our own now. And you're probably wondering what that means for you and the house. Ashleigh : That we can finally wear skirts without Lizzie reminding us how hard women fought for suffrage? Casey : Yes. But some of the changes Lizzie made were actually improvements. For example, mandatory pledge study hours. Rebecca : But... we're not actually going to do the 50 extra philanthropy hours, are we? Casey : 75, and yes. And pre-meeting roll call and a little more attention to ritual, and... Rebecca : And are you ever gonna stop "and-ing"? Casey : And there's one more change... Right, we're finally gonna have some real Zeta Beta fun. Girls, girls, I'm very disappointed. We don't snap here. We clap. Frannie : Isn't Casey doing a great job ? Rebecca : Beats our last President. Casey : So tomorrow night is the all-Greek ball. The premier Greek event. And, as you know, this is the first one in two years. I hope you've been skipping desserts where you need to. This is the place to show off. Frannie, do you have a question? Frannie : What? No. I don't have anything to say. Ashleigh : I think Tania just cleared her throat. Casey : Great. Rebecca : So why didn't we have one last year? Casey : Well... There was like this... SNAFU thing at the ball two years ago. Anyway... Moving forward. This is a big deal, since every house, Even alumni lobbied dean Bowman hard for a second chance. I expect nothing less than our best behavior. This could be another step toward getting the dean's restrictions lifted. Frannie : Go, Casey! TODAY - KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Okay... So there is this all-Greek ball this weekend. All : Yeah ! Cappie : And we're not going. All : Yeah ! Rusty : No! Why aren't we going? Cappie : Listen to the name, spitter. It's a ball. Like a testicle. I don't want to go to a testicle. Rusty : Sounded kind of fun before that. All the Greeks partying in one place. Cappie : Yeah, sure. If you're looking for a prom part II. Rusty : Well, I didn't have prom part I. Why doesn't anyone want to go? Cappie : It's a long, boring story, Spitter. Rusty : But... Cappie : And meeting adjourned. Adieu! Rusty : What, no one's gonna tell me what happened? Cappie : No, no one is. And if you keep asking you know what I'm gonna do? Yeah, you guessed it. I'm gonna reinstate the pledge diet plan. You remember bacon grease and butter burritos, right? Rusty : Never mind. 2 YEARS AGO – CRU – Cappie & Evan’s room Cappie : First day of college. Evan : Hey. Cappie : Hey, nice puberty patch. Evan : Hey, the ladies don't complain about it too much. Cappie : Man, ladies? When did you get a sense of humor, master Chambers? Evan : Shut up you. Cappie : It's good to see you man. Evan : You look good. Cappie : Look at this room. Evan : I know. Cappie : How glorious is this room? Evan : It's not bad. Cappie : Man. Wait a minute. What are? Evan : Our R.A. He is 21 years old, and he is absolutely desperate for cash. Cappie : This is great. Evan : I just got this down the street. It's not bad. This is gonna blow. Cappie : To freshman year. Evan : To freshman year, my friend. You'll never learn. Cappie : Son of a. Why would you do that to me? Evan : Over here we have our flat screen television set. Cappie : Flat screen? Why couldn't we have a flat screen at camp Kitchi Wa-Wa? Evan : Probably cause it was camp. Cappie : Perhaps, yeah. The good old days. Evan : These are gonna be the good new days. Cappie : Clearly, vintage T-shirts, goatee. This isn't exactly your style, from what I recall. Evan : I'm trying something new. I wanna be a little more Evan a little less Chambers. Cappie : Sounds like a rich kid thing to me. Evan : That's just what I don't want it to sound like. Starting tonight, I'm gonna be my own man. I'm gonna go rush some fraternities, and you are gonna come with me. Cappie : Fraternities? Evan : Yeah. Cappie : Aren't those a little elitist and obnoxious? Evan : They weren't in old school. Cappie : Playing theold schoolcard. You know me very well. Evan : Trust me, spending the next four years, going to apartment parties is gonna be so much better in a frat. There's no girls at those parties, it's a total sausage fest. Cappie : That is the single most motivating thing you could have possibly said to me. Evan : You'll be fine. Listen, rush starts at six. I'll meet you right here. All right. Cappie : Fine. I bet I'm gonna hate it. Evan : You will not hate it. Credits TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Rebecca : Is it true our Madam President doesn't have a date for the ball? Casey : Yeah. Well, have you talked to Cappie yet? Because he likes school dances about as much as L.C. likes Spencer. Rebecca : It's not a problem. We made alternate plans. Casey : So I was right. Rebecca leaves. Casey : Any luck with finding a date for tonight? Ashleigh : Who says I need luck? Casey : Of course. So who is he? Ashleigh : Well... He is a "she," and she's really hot and her name is Casey Cartwright. Casey : What happened to Hotmanistan? Ashleigh : He was stealing from his sponsor family. They found money in his stupid Fanny pack-istan. Casey : It's not like boys are banging down my door either. But I bet a good number of them will be dateless at the dance. Ashleigh : We'll divide and conquer. Casey : Or pull a Frannie and break up a couple. Ashleigh : Yeah, she's trying. She seems friendlier. Casey : Like the pit bulls you hear about on the news. One minute they're licking your fingers, the next they're eating your little maltipoo. Ashleigh : I don't think this new Frannie bites. Casey : She doesn't even bark. That's what scares me. She's so... Walking through the door right now. Hey, Frannie. Frannie : Hey, guys. The machines are down at my apartment again. Ashleigh : All of them? What happened? Frannie : Some... rats gnawed through the hoses at the back of the machines. Ashleigh : That's gross. Frannie : I know, right? So I was wondering if I could do my laundry here. Casey : Sure. Of course it's okay. Frannie : Thanks, Casey. 2 YEARS AGO – Laundry Ashleigh : I'm done with these two. Casey : Thanks. Ashleigh : I'm sorry. I think I've seen you somewhere before. Are you on MySpace? It's like this new friendster. I'm totally obsessed with it. Casey : I live on your floor. I'm... I'm Casey. Ashleigh : I'm Ashleigh. Nice to meet you. Casey : Is this your... Red sock? Ashleigh : Looks more like a strawberry blond sock. Casey : Not a sock! Not a sock! It's a clump of hair! Ashleigh : Get it off me! Casey : Hold on. Hold on. Hold still, hold still. Ok, Ok. It's gone now. It's gone now. I am so sorry. Ashleigh : It's Ok. Doing your own laundry sucks. Casey : I know. Yesterday I checked to see how much it'd cost to overnight my clothes back home and have my mom wash them for me. Ashleigh : And? Casey : It adds up. Ashleigh : My mom would probably just send them right back. I have a big family : two sisters and a brother. But they're awesome. I miss them. Do you have any brothers or sisters? Casey : Not really. So are... are you... Are you rushing? Ashleigh : No, I'm good on time. Casey : I meant a sorority. Ashleigh : Yeah. I was thinking about it. Are you? You should. And we should be rush buddies. Casey : Ok. Frannie : Ladies... They shut the water off at the Zeta Beta Zeta house today Mark Jacobs... Nice. Could I borrow some of your detergent? Casey : Yes. Sure. I mean... Please.Thanks. Libby : I'm so ready to mix with the Omega Chis. Rush needs to be over like now. Frannie : The rush makes us the best house in campus, Libbs. Think about it. We have the prettiest girls, the best grades, and the most awesome... Social calendar on campus. Libby : So how many girls we'll get tonight anyway? Frannie : As many as we want. But... Not everyone is Zeta Beta material. It's about quality, not quantity. Libby : We can only take the best. TODAY – OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Omega chi guy : What's up, Calvin? Calvin : Let's see. Your suit, Mr. Bond. Evan : Thank you, pledge Owens. So I see Tanner's warming up to you. Calvin : Yeah, yeah. I.... Kind of liked it when he was all uncomfortable. He can talk. Evan : It's like I said, man. You give the Omega Chis a chance to get to know the real you, you can be one of the most liked guys of this house. Calvin : You know, you're right. I'm glad I'm here. It's... it's a much better frat than Kappa Tau. Evan : Yeah, what the hell were you thinking? Calvin : I don't know. 2 YEARS AGO – CRU – FRATERNITY RUSH Cappie : Do you use gel or a wax? Did we really almost have that conversation? And what was with that jock house? Evan : I know. The... What is it? The... the Lambda Sigs. Cappie : Lambda Sigs, yeah. They asked how fast I could run the forty. Evan : What? You serious? Cappie : They loved you. Evan : I didn't even have to drop the "Chambers" bmb once, man. Cappie : Yeah, you didn't have to at Omega Chi either. They were so busy sucking up to you, I got to steal this. Evan : Ok, now we're breaking the law. What are you doing? Cappie : Come on, can we just go now, please? Evan : No, come on, Cap. Listen to me. I swear, you just haven't found your right fit yet. Cappie : I have found the right fit. The dorm room. Three squares a day, plus cable tv. What more do you need? Evan : Cappie, trust me, all right? This is better. Think of a fraternity as four more years of camp, all right? But this time, your cabin is equipped with girls and beer. Cappie : Ok, but the last two came equipped with'roid abusers, and men with frosted tips. Come on, Evs. You got three invitations already. What are you holding out for? Evan : This one. Ok? This is the house that I'm really interested in. Cappie : What do those letters mean again? Evan : Kappa Tau Gamma. Cappie : One more. Evan : Let's do it. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Casey : God! What? Ashleigh : What is it? A spider? Scarier. Casey : I'd recognize that chartreuse-colored puffy pen writing anywhere. A thank-you note from Frannie for laundry privileges. Ashleigh : This seems harmless. She's trying. She's making amends. The whole... Step 12 thing. And she used really nice stationary. Look at the watermark. Casey : It's not harmless, Ash. And this has nothing to do with making amends. First, she supports me at the meeting. Now this. Ashleigh : It's harmless. Casey : No, she's trying to make me doubt myself. It's payback for keeping her on probation. Ashleigh : You don't know that. Casey : Why are you defending her? It's not like she was making your life any easier. Ashleigh : Frannie seriously lost it last semester, no doubt. But she wasn't always like that. 2 YEARS AGO – ZBZ HOUSE – SORORITY RUSH Frannie : I was a ZBZ, you know? Libby : Seriously? So was I. God. ZBZ girl 1 : I only date ZBZs. Libby : Flat line. Damn, we lost her. ZBZ girl 2 : Seriously, she wouldn't have died if she'd gone Zeta Beta. ZBZ girl 1 : Seriously. What a shame. You girls wanna go to Dobler's? Frannie : My God. That sounds like so much fun. Right? All : Yeah. Sure. Grey’s anatomy CD. “Choices... That's what being in a sorority is all about. Making those choices that can change your life... Forever.” Ashleigh : Frannie is so awesome. She ends everything with "right?" It's so interesting, right? My God, I just did it. Casey : You did. Ashleigh : Beware the donut test. Casey : Donut test? Ashleigh : My suite-mate told me one of the houses determines if you're right for them based on which you eat first, the donut or the ice cream. This must be the place. Casey : That's ridiculous. What are you supposed to eat first? Ashleigh : She said the ice cream, but she's kind of evil, so she might have been tricking me. Frannie : Casey, right? Casey : Yes. Frannie : This is for you. Casey : No, thank you. Frannie : Excuse me? Casey : If this is the kind of sority that bases their bids on the way you eat a piece of deep-fried dough, then I really don't want to be here. Frannie : A girl who thinks for herself. thrat... But properly trained, potentially a great asset to the house. When I become president, I'm so dropping this stupid donut thing, anyway. Ashleigh : And I'm not gonna eat another one. TODAY – CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : What are you looking for? Rusty : The student newspaper from two years ago. Do you know if they have an online archive? Dale : No, but easy there, Amadeus. Next to the screen the keyboard... Rusty : The most fragile exposed part of a computer. I know. Dale : There's the Greek ball tonight. You're gone? Rusty : None of the KTs are. Why? Is your U-Sag group going to protest it? Dale : I thought about getting some picketers, but then I decided to do something bigger. I've decided to throw the first annual U-Sag ball. It's gonna be CRU's counter-programming answer to your Greeks' all-night bacchanalia. Rusty : Our dance ends at eleven. Dale : It's gonna be a sin-free evening, filled with non-alcoholic drinks, line-dancing and subtle proselytizing. Could be the first of many U-Sag balls. Rusty : Dale. Dale : Do you wanna go? Rusty : I think there's a conflict of interests or something. Dale : Do you think Calvin would wanna go? Rusty : Calvin is happily back at Omega Chi, and Omega Chi and Kappa Tau aren't exactly on speaking terms. Dale : So you stopped talking to a friend because he joined a different organization? Rusty : Right, like you've never done anything like that. 2 YEARS AGO – Dale’s high school Dale : Hey, you should swing by my youth boot camp this weekend for a little pizza and soul winning. A guy : I can't. My mom converts me to catholicism. I have to go to mess. Dale : Mess? You're dad to me. TODAY – CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Well, not without a very good reason. TODAY – KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rebecca : Are you sure you don't wanna go to the dance? It'd be my first ball. Cappie : I thought you didn't wanna go. Rebecca : I changed my mind. It's a woman's prerogative. Cappie : And I respect your right to choose, and it's not that I don't wanna go with you. I just. I don't wanna go to the dance. I'm not a very good dancer. 2 YEARS AGO – KT HOUSE – FRATERNITY RUSH Evan : Ok. Do you now see why I've been holding out for this house? Cappie : An ice luge! Evan : A what? Cappie : Sally forth! Man : This ain't no joke I'm about to give you. Evan : Then give me hell. Man : Where do you think I got this stuff? All right, say when. Okay. Evan : Cap! Are you all right, psycho? Are you okay? Man : Step back, he's gonna boot! Cappie : When. Man : The bottle's empty. The bottle's empty! Hey, priceless, kid. Cappie : Dude. I think I found my people. Man : Think you did, man. Evan : Hey, man. I'm Evan. Chambers. Egyptian Joe : You're related to Tom Chambers of the Phoenix suns? Evan : Actually it's Jonathan Chambers. Chambers International. Egyptian Joe : Yeah, I don't follow soccer, You know that guy? Evan : Cappie? Yeah, he's my roommate. We're roomies. Egyptian Joe : Well, you guys should stick around, check it out. Evan : Ok, yeah. We will. Egyptian Joe : See you around, Todd. Evan : All right. Evan. Egyptian Joe : Whatever. Evan : Sure. Egyptian Joe : So congratulations on taking home gold in the ice luge. Cappie : Yeah, I've been trying to hold on to my amateur status for quite a while, just to hopefully make it here one day and... And now that I'm here it feels pretty good. I'm real proud. Egyptian Joe : Good. Cappie : Would you excuse me please? Think I see my gold medal. Cappie sees Casey for the very first time. Cappie : Cappie. Casey : That's your name? Cappie : Please, regale me with yours. Casey : I... I'm Casey Cartwright. Cappie : Sexy alliteration. Casey Cartwright. Simple, yet elegant. Want to do a body sht? Casey : Someone's already getting me a drink. Thanks. Cappie : In a cup? How boring. Casey : Well, at least I get to keep my clothes on. Cappie : Rarely a virtue in my experience. And just for the record, I was hoping you would do the sht off me. Casey : I'll stick to the cute guy with the boring cup. Cappie : Well, that's what they said at Jonestown. You really trust your drink with a complete stranger? Casey : Well, let's ask him. Evan : Hey ! You know... Cappie? Cappie : Evan's the guy? Then I stand corrected. He's the safest guy I know. Evan : Thanks. I think. Casey : You guys know each other? Cappie : Yeah, we're roommates, actually. Evan : Right. Cappie : Can you believe someone just left him on my doorstep? I opened the door, there he was. Looking for somebody to take care of him. Evan : I don't need anyone to take care of me. Cappie : Well. Ashleigh : My God. I love this song. Come on. Evan : Ok. What about your drink? Casey : Just put it down and come dance. Beaver : I love college! TODAY – OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Evan : So I need a volunteer to be sober pledge tonight. Calvin : I got it. I'm dateless. Unless one of you guys wants to go with me. 2 YEARS AGO – KT HOUSE Evan : Excuse me, Joe? Egyptian Joe : I told you, it's yo, Joe! Like the cartoon, you know. Snake eyes, cobra commander. Cappie : The baroness. Egyptian Joe : The baroness Nice pull. She was hot. Evan : Yo, Joe! Got a test tomorrow. Is it cool if I duck out early? Egyptian Joe : No, Chambers. Not until we finish the pledge nicknames. Let's see. No need to bother with Cappie. I mean... He's so Cappie. And the beaver... Was a no-brainer following last night's drunken exploits. I could watch Beaver inhale wood all day. Which brings me to Chambers... Aka "Bing." Evan : I don't get it. Is it like Chandler? Egyptian Joe : No. Evan : Then why Bing? Egyptian Joe : Origin isn't important. It's a handle. And yours is Bing. Evan : No. No, you have to tell me. Why am I Bing? What's Bing? Egyptian Joe : Well, when the brothers were deciding who to honor with a bid, there was some discussion. You fell somewhere between a bid and a ding. Evan : So I almost got dung out? Egyptian Joe : Bingo! No offense. Cappie : Hey, man. Don't sweat it. You're in. Egyptian Joe : Of course you're in, Bing. I mean, you guys are like a package deal. If he's in, you're in. If you're in, he's in. If he's not in, you're not in. If you're not in, he's still in. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : I'm heading downstairs for lunch. Casey : Okay. I'll meet you there in a sec. Favorite bracelet. Where are you? 2 YEARS AGO – ZBZ HOUSE ZBZ Girl : I've already been thinking about all the experiences we'll share together throughout college. And I'll always be here to protect you... From boys, who will always hurt you. Proud to be your Zeta Beta Zeta big sis. Ashleigh : I love my ginormous lesbian big sis. Libby : Casey Cartwright, turn around and meet your new big sis. Frannie : Casey... From the moment I saw you, I knew you were the girl I wanted as my little sis. I see you at my med school graduation, I see you at my wedding. And I just know we'll still be talking when we're ninety. I think ZBZ founding sister, Octavia Divoll Jones, said it best when she wrote, "sincere and unending friendship springs from sisterhood steadfast." Casey : I love that. Frannie : Because, when we're in need, we don't abandon each other, Casey. We stick together. For all time. Damn proud to be your Zeta Beta Zeta big sis. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Frannie : Hey... I know you and Ashleigh are going to the ball. Casey : Right. Frannie : And if you want a pre-party, it's two-for-one night at Dobler's. Drinks on me. Casey : Thanks. But I don't think we can make it. Frannie : Ok. 2 YEARS AGO – CRU – Evan & Cappie’s room Cappie : You're leaving Kappa Tau to pledge Omega Chi? Evan : Yeah, I mean, it's done, Cap. But it's Ok, man. It's the right move for me. Cappie : But I only rushed because you did. Evan : I know that, and look how well it's turned out for you, man. You're a superstar. Come on, I'm just... Cappie : Bing? Evan : Yeah, Bing. Cappie : What, you can't be a part of something, unless you're the superstar? Evan : Let's be honest. It's not like you're not enjoying being the golden boy. Casey : So you're in different houses now... Big deal. Nothing has to change. Cappie : I just wanna understand why Evan's decided to make a very, very, very poor decision here. Evan : Omega Chi has a lot to offer me. Cappie : What, like starched collars and sailing lessons? Evan : And better athletics, and alumni job assistance, and an emphasis on academics. Cappie : Ok, who cares? Dude, we're in college. Just enjoy the six or seven years, and don't worry about making contacts. Evan : Yeah, but then what, man? Look, we're not gonna be in college forever. Cappie : So much for having fun, Mr. Chambers? Evan : All right, you know what? Casey : I know, I know. Why don't we get some hamburgers? Hamburgers, yum! Come on, guys. Don't fight over something like this. It's just the Greek system. Don't let it ruin our friendship. We're the three musketeers. Evan : Hey... it's okay. It's totally fine. I'm not. I'm not even hungry. I got to study... Cappie : All right. Let's go. Casey : Sorry. TODAY - DOBLERS Rusty : Hey ! Calvin : Hey ! Rusty : Are you going to the dance tonight? Calvin : Some of the other guys are, and I'm... not. Rusty : Yeah, me too. Just chillin'. Yeah.

Cappie! Cappie! Cappie : All right, we'll do one more. Casey : Hey, stranger. Evan : Stranger? That's a bit dramatic. Casey : Really? You room with my boyfriend, and I've seen you like... what, twice in the past six months? Evan : Yeah. I've just been caught up with Omega Chi pledging. Casey : It shows. I mean, without you there covering for Cappie, he's had to come up with new and inventive excuses for flaking on me to party with his bros. Evan : Well, you know, fun can be time consuming. Casey : You created the Godzilla of partying by taking him to Kappa Tau. Evan : Trust me. Trust me, Cappie... He was already a monster. I just pointed the way to Tokyo. Come on, all right? That's Cappie. I mean, he's the life of the party. It's what you signed up for. Casey : Glowing endorsement. Evan : No, he's a good guy. Casey : He's a great guy. Cappie : (Singing) You're behind the steering wheel. Touching you. Touching me. Casey : Your collar's kinda... Evan : Man, is it? Casey : Yeah, here. Here, here. Evan : Ok. Casey : Anyway... I'm not waiting around. I'm gonna go home. Evan : I'll walk you. Casey : It's fine. Besides you're here with your friends. Evan : No, no, no. No way. I'm not gonna let you walk home alone. Casey : I guess I could use someone to fend off the crazies. Since my crazy is... Busy. Again. I'm gonna. Ev. It's fine. Evan : You tried. Casey : I tried. Thank you. All right. Cappie : This next song goes out to the most beautiful girl in the world. No, no. Not you, Beav. Ms. Casey Cartwright. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : I got to get myself ready for the ball, Ash. Why am I looking for your lip gloss? Ashleigh : Because you borrowed it! Frannie : Last load, Case. And then I'm out of here. 2 YEARS AGO – ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Frannie : Sorry, Dino. Let's get going. What are you still doing here? Where's Cappie? Casey : Good question. He was supposed to pick me up 30 minutes ago. Frannie : Unbelievable. Well, would you like Dino here to fetch you an escort from Omega Chi? I know I would. Casey : No, I want my own lousy escort. If he ever shows. Frannie : Well, we'll wait with you until he gets here. Dino : We really should get going. Frannie : I'll meet you there. Casey : Frannie, please. Don't wait. It's okay. Really. I'm fine. Frannie : Are you sure? Casey : Yeah. Frannie : Come on. 2 YEARS AGO – CRU – Evan & Cappie’s room Casey : Where's Cappie? Did he think I'd sit at the ZBZ house waiting forever for him? I know you know where he is. Don't... cover for him. Evan : He went to get ready at the KT house. Casey : What? Pre-party? I am so sick of this. I'm competing for my boyfriend's attention with a house full of 50 guys. Evan : I could go get him for you. Do you want... I'll get him for you. Casey : Aren't you going to the dance? Evan : No date. Casey : Why not? Evan : I just... You know, I didn't want to go with just anybody. We could go. As friends. Cause I've got. I've got a suit. So you wouldn't have to waste your beautiful dress. Casey : I'll... wait in the hall. While you change. Evan : Ok. All right. 2 YEARS AGO – KT HOUSE - Hallway Frannie : Where's Cappie? Don't lie to me, Sasquatch. Beaver : He's upstairs. 2 YEARS AGO – KT HOUSE – Egyptian Joe’s room Cappie : Big sis... in law. Beaver : I tried to stop her, but she scared me. Frannie : Why haven't you gone to pick up Casey? She's been waiting almost an hour! Cappie : Man. I'm such an idiot! Frannie : Not the word I would use. Hurry! Egyptian Joe : Lady! Take a pill. If my IB says he'll get there, sweetheart, he'll get there. Cappie : Stand down, Joe. Beaver : Yeah, relax. Cappie's almost ready. Frannie : Why don't you do me a favor and go pet some rabbits downstairs? Beaver : I don't get it. Frannie : Of course you don’t. It's a literary reference anyone with a high school diploma would understand. Unless, of course, you're a dumb jock who eats his way through a public education system with an eighth-grade reading comprehension. And you... What are you, like 45 now? The wr's over, honey. No more hiding at college to dodge the draft, and a miserable future of a minimum wage paying job. Egyptian Joe : I got nowhere else to go! I got nowhere else to go. Frannie : You... Well, if I was Casey, I would have jettisoned you into the sun by now, but she, for some reason unknown to God or man, actually loves you. You have to get over there! You're hurting one of the most amazing girls. Believe me, you will regret it. This is taking way too long. Come on. We have to go. Cappie : Should I wear the tie? Frannie : I don't care. TODAY – KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rusty : Tell me what happened two years ago at the all-Greek ball. Cappie : Spitter, for the umpteenth time, it's a long story. Rusty : Well then let me make it shorter for you. So I googled you. Not a lot of Cappies on the web. Especially ones who attended camp Kitchi Wa-Wa. Cappie : It's yesterday's news. Rusty : What I didn't know was the camp's most prominent benefactors were Jonathan and Mim Chambers. Cappie : How did you... Rusty : I'm really smart. This is what I do. You've known Evan since you were kids, your parents ran the arts and crafts program at camp and... Cappie : That's all on the internet? If you know your way around a search engine. I use a lot of boolean operators. Like "and, or, not," and occasionally "near." Will you please tell me what happened? Cappie : All right, fine. I missed the beginning of the dance, but when I got there... 2 YEARS AGO – CRU - DANCE Casey : We can't walk out on this song. Evan : No. Cappie : No more pre-partying on the way over in the car, Ok? That... Look at that. Beaver : Hey, it's Bing. Cappie : No way. Evan : It's not what you think. Cappie : I thought you had to study tonight. I didn't think it'd be a party with my girlfriend. Casey : I went to your room and you weren't there. Evan : I just didn't want to let her down, man, okay? That's all. Cappie : Are you saying I did? Evan : Are you saying you didn't? Casey : Ok, everybody. Let's just back up. Cappie : I should have known you were gonna leave KT for those white collar douches, didn't think you were gonna make a move on her. Evan : I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you! Cappie : All right, blame me, but this is about you. You're still the same preppy tag-along from camp who needs my help to get into Kappa Tau. I didn't need to have a makeover to get in. I missed that silver spoon-fed Chambers we all know and tolerate. Evan : You know, better than being spawned by a couple of d*ad head losers. Cappie hits Evan and both start to fight. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : Hey. Cappie : You look... stunning. Casey : You look pretty dapper yourself. It's “déja vu”... Sorta. Cappie : I've been thinking about the past myself lately. Casey : Yeah. You're here to pick up Rebecca? Cappie : Would you kindly announce me? Frannie : Only two years late. Cappie : Hi, Frannie. Casey : I think that's the most I've ever heard her say to you. Cappie : Shoulda heard her two years ago. Casey : What are you talking about? Cappie : Two years ago, the night of the testicle? The night I allegedly stood you up? She came and found me at Kappa Tau. Casey : Frannie ? I don't buy it. Cappie : She made Joe cry. I thought she was gonna disembowel me. Casey : Buying it a little more. Cappie : It's true, Case. She had your back. You really didn't know that? Rebecca : Cappie ? What are you doing here? Casey : Excuse me. Cappie : My lady, if you're not against changing your plans, I thought perhaps we might attend this evening's Cotillion. Rebecca : But you don't like to dance. Cappie : But you like to. Rebecca : I'll go change. Cappie : Ok. TODAY – ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : Frannie ? Frannie : Ten more minutes and I'll be done. Casey : You went to the KT house the night of the Greek ball? Frannie : You're my little sis. What was I supposed to do? Casey : If you're not doing anything, do you wanna go to the dance with Ashleigh and me? Frannie : I'd love that. Thanks. TODAY – CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Don't do anything I wouldn't do at your U-Sag ball. Dale : It's free cinemax tonight, so same to you. Rusty is not going to the dance and stay in is room. TODAY – OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Calvin is not going to the dance and stay in Omega Chi’s house to watch TV. TODAY – CRU – Dance Rebecca and Cappie dance while Ashleigh, Casey and Frannie take a drink just near from them. Evan is at the Dance too. 2 YEARS AGO – CRU – Dance Evan : What about Cappie? Casey : What about him? TODAY – CRU – Dance Casey find Evan but they don’t talk to each other. Cappie notices them. When Evan leaves, Casey sees Cappie watching her. They smile each other.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x15 - Freshman Daze"}	foreverdreaming
CRU - Street Rusty : I'm telling you, Baldwin's rules for ring closure, they don't even apply. Dr. Albert's wrong. Dale : Then somebody better change Baldwin's rules between now and the final. Rusty : Dr. Albert is not infallible, Dale. Dale : If you define "infallible" as I do in this situation as in "holds my future in her hands," then yes, she is. What you looking at? Dr. Albert? Did she hear you say she wasn't infallible? Please, Lord, grant me invisibility... Rusty : No. It's the girl from my American lit class. Just don't stare so much. Dale : That girl right there? I hate to say this, but I liked it better when you weren't on the prowl. Rusty : That's the Moby Dick girl. Dale : I'm not real sure I'm comfortable with that statement either. Rusty : Last week, in my American lit class, Mr. Ellman pointed to me and he's like, "Mr. Cartwright," and I said, "No, please call me Ishmael." Both : Emma cracked up. Dale : It's such a good story. Every time. Rusty : She got the joke. I think she gets me. You know how rare that is? Dale : No, not really. But what I do know is that obsessing, particularly in the carnal realm, distracts the mind from important matters, like solid-state chemistry. Rusty : My work in solid-state chemistry is not suffering because of Emma. Dale : Well, mine is. If you like this girl, for heaven's sake, and mine, just ask her out. Rusty : She laughed at my joke, she didn't give me her phone number. Look how she closes her book first, and then takes her last sip of coffee. Dale ? No ! Dale : She'll meet you for coffee tonight at the espresso farm, don't thank me. Let's start with exo-digs, you take favored, I'll take unfavored. You wanna sit down or you wanna just keep standing here? Come on. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Frannie : What's going on? Casey : Caroline, Laurie, and Amy have been invited to Lambda Sig pink rose formal. Frannie : It’s fantastic. Ashleigh : We're finally moving out of the social dog house. Under the amazing leadership of Casey Cartwright. Frannie : So when do we call the Omega Chis? To build on the momentum? The Lambda Sigs are the second hottest house on campus. Now that they've officially taken us off Greek death row with these invitations, this is the perfect time to push for a full pardon by setting up a mixer with the first hottest house... the Omega Chis. If you thought that was a good idea. Casey : Actually, I think it's a... terrible idea. ZBZ Girl : But the Omega Chis are a rightful social counterpart. Casey : Rightful social counterpart B.J.K. Ashleigh : "Before Jen K." Casey : And the shunning Omega Chi gave us after the article was published? Not to mention B.P.H. Ashleigh : Before... Paris Hilton? Casey : Before public humiliation? The back-to-school carnival. Am I the only one who remembers the kissing booth debacle? The way the Omega Chis publicly humiliated us? Why should we reward them for treating us like that? No, ladies. ZBZs will find their way to the top on their own merits. And in the meantime... We can celebrate, and strengthen from within. How about a game night? We can order pizza, bake cookies... Frannie : Great, that sounds great. It sounds great. Credits CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : 7:00, 8:00.? 7:00 sounds great. No. That's fine. Yeah, all right. I'll see you then. All right, bye. She wants to bring her roommate along on our date. Dale : That can't be a good sign. Rusty : If she didn't want to be alone with me, why didn't she just break the date? Dale : Pity can be a pretty powerful emotion. Or... She likes you so much already, she wants to show you off. Rusty : All right, maybe I should bring somebody to... To keep her roommate busy. So I can have a little one-on-one time with Emma. Dale : That’s à good idea. Maybe get one of your frat bros to go along. Rusty : No, I don't wanna have to explain how this whole stupid date thing happened to any of the guys at the fraternity. Especially if it's go up in flames. How about you go with me? You're the one who got me into this. Dale : Rusty, I know you haven't been able to see me in action. You know, pure girls being somewhat in short supply here at CRU. I'm known in certain circles as quite the ladies' man. I wouldn't wanna show you out there. Rusty : What circles are those? Dale : Purity pledge circles. I was voted "most likely to have the opportunity to become impure, but have the supreme self-control not to" three years running in high school. I just don't want to risk our friendship over some girl. Rusty : I'm willing to take the risk. Dale : All right, then. If that's the way you want it, roomie. But be forewarned. I have no control over this charisma. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Rebecca : That sounds terrible. Poor thing! So I'll call you later. That was Cappie. He's sick. Casey : Yeah, I'm suddenly feeling a little nauseous myself. Rebecca : Not having a boyfriend is nothing to get yourself upset about. You don't need a man to have a fulfilling life. You could be the next mother Teresa or Rosie O'Donnell. Caroline and Mandy have already left for the movies yet? Casey : Wait, you're not going to see Cappie? Rebecca : He's sick. Casey : Really? OK. I saw Mandy... Rebecca : What? Casey : It's just... When Cappie and I were together, I always took care of him when he was sick. But... He's probably not even thinking about that right now. Maybe you can just send him a nice warm e-card. I'm sure it'd mean a lot to him. CRU - Garden Ashleigh : Okay, I'm here. So what's with all the secrecy? Frannie : We needed to talk somewhere away from the house. I'm worried about Casey. Ashleigh : Frannie, I know you've supposedly gone through this whole personality overhaul thing, but I'm kind of weirded out when you start talking about your concern for Casey. Frannie : This is not about me. Didn't you notice how everyone was looking at her when she nixed mixing with the Omega Chis? And I know you heard someone call her "Lizzi." Ashleigh : So? Casey, Lizzi. It's an understandable mistake. Frannie : Casey is seriously being blinded to what's good for the house and herself by this Evan-shaped mental block. Which I know I helped to put there. That's why I'm doing everything I can to get everyone back to their rightful places. Ashleigh : If you feel so strongly about this, why don't you talk to Casey about it? Frannie : Because she might be kind of weirded out. Don't let her blow this opportunity, Ash. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey : Not wanting to have a mixer with the Omega Chis couldn't possibly have anything to do with my feelings for Evan. I don't have feelings for Evan. It doesn't matter to me if he's arrogant, or rude, or dismissive... I don't even notice. Ashleigh : Yeah, I can see that. Did you know that Amanda gets PE credits for massaging the varsity boys during swim meets? We should just go... Casey : The Omega Chis publicly humiliated the ZBZs at the back-to-school carnival. Right? Ashleigh : From where I was standing, Case, it looked more like... Evan humiliated you. But I could be so wrong. Casey : No, Ash. You're right. It was about Evan and me. But he is an Omega Chi and I am a ZBZ. Ashleigh : Yes, you are. And you're the best president ever. Casey : And there are 50 other girls in this sorority, who didn't get dissed and who want to resume relations with the Omega Chis. Ashleigh : 50 hot, desirable Omega Chis, including Calvin, who might be waiting for an opportunity to disagree with Evan Chambers. Casey : That part would be gratifying. Ashleigh : I'm social chair. I can extend the invitation. Casey : Thanks Ash, but this isn't just about the party. It's about normalizing relations. I need to do it. I can do it. Ashleigh : Wanna go fondle some swimmers first? Casey : You are such a good friend. CRU – Café Emma : So how did you meet? Rusty : Did you guys meet here? You can go first. Emma : No, you first. Dale : Luck of the draw. Housing office saw fit to put us two brainiacs on the engineering dorm. Rusty : Dale, we don't need... Dale : Honors floor. I got a 2210 on my sats. Rusty here got about the same. Tina : I got 2250. Dale : 780 in math. Tina 790. Rusty : Dale's very proud of his accomplishments. Emma : It's okay. Tina's not easily intimidated. Rusty : I see that. Emma : So how are you liking american lit? Rusty : Honestly, I am finding Moby Dick a little long and kinda stiff. I can't believe I just said that. Emma : I say things I don't mean to say all the time. Why do you think I don't talk in class? Rusty : Well, I just figured you were so far ahead of the discussion, you were just waiting for the rest of the class to catch up. Emma : I wish. Mostly I'm just trying to stay awake. Which I guess brings us back to Moby Dick being... Rusty : A little long and stiff. Tina : Is that what I think it is? Rusty : What, what is? Dale : His pledge pin? Or his scarlet letter, if you will? He's in a frat. Rusty : We prefer "fraternity." I'm pledging Kappa Tau Gamma. Tina : The Greek system should be banned from college campuses. Dale : You got a 2250 on your sats, and you're down on the Greeks? Emma : Well, the Greeks aren't so bad. Tina : Emma, they're this totally ritualistic, secretive society. Rusty : I think you may be taking it a little bit too seriously. Tina : You don't think it's serious when an organization takes monies from general students services fees, but doesn't allow all students to participate in its activities? Rusty : Well, the same could be said for most clubs on campus and sports teams. Emma : I could use some more coffee. Rusty : I can get that for you. Dale : You know, I've started an organization you may be interested in, U-Sag. Tina : U- sag? What does that stand for? Dale : University students against Greeks. CRU - Street Rusty : That was a complete disaster. Dale : Are you kidding? That was great. That Tina's a real spitfire. Rusty : Dale, this was supposed to be my date with the new girl, and it turned into the Greek inquisition. They didn't even want us to walk them back to their dorms. Emma : Hey Rusty ! Dale : If Tina wants to call me, tell her it's okay. I'm serious. Emma : I just wanted to apologize for abandoning you tonight. I'm not much good with confrontation. Rusty : Your roommate likes it enough for both of you. Emma : I know. I probably shouldn't have brought her. I didn't really know you, and anyway, I'm really sorry. See you in class? Rusty : Maybe we can try it again? Just you and me? Friday night? Emma : Sure. Why not? Dale : Did you tell her to call me? OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Hallway Evan : Casey ? Casey : Hey! Evan : Hey! Casey : I was looking for Dino. Evan : Dino? Casey : The Omega Chi president? Evan : Yeah, I know. I know who he is. He's not here right now. What did you want to talk to him about? Casey : Just some Greek business. If that's okay with you. Evan : Why wouldn't it be with me? Just that the OCs and the ZBZs aren't exactly doing business anymore. But if you want me to tell Dino you stopped by, I'll tell him. Casey : You know what? Never mind. I don't have to talk to him after all. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rebecca : Cap ? Cappie : That’s my girl ? Rebecca : Hey ? Thought maybe you could use a massage or maybe a sponge... I thought you had a cold. Cappie : I do. I also have pink eye. Rebecca : Bummer. Well, there's some tea. I've gotta go. Cappie : Wait. What's under the white coat, doc? Rebecca : It's... nothing that should be seen through... Crust. Cappie : Is it really that bad? Okay, hold on. Here we go. Better? Rebecca : A little. What? Cappie : I didn't think that you'd come. Rebecca : Why not? Casey took care of you when you were sick, right? Cappie : Well, yeah, but, I mean, you're not... Tea! What is this, Earl Grey? Rebecca : It's chamomile. Is there anything else I can do for you? Cappie : I don't wanna impose. Let's see. Would you mind... Heating that up? Yeah, it's just a little cold. Thanks. And maybe some Chicken noodle soup in a cup, in, like, the mug, you know? It's always better when it's in a mug for when you're sick. With some of the little oyster crackers on top. I'm sorry. It's probably a good thing you wore the coat. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Ashleigh : So the social committee is planning a game night, and I'm taking a poll on board games. Frannie : More like boring games. ZBZ Girl : What we should be planning is a great party with the Omega Chis. Casey : I couldn't agree more. Which is why I went to the Omega Chi house just now to discuss the possibility of mixing with us. Frannie : My God, that's fantastic. Casey : But they said no. Ashleigh : Really? Frannie : Did you talk to Dino? Casey : We're still poison as far as they're concerned. But who cares, right? We don't need the Omega Chis to be the best sority at CRU. We are the ZBZs. We have the Lambda Sigs. We have game night. Now I'm gonna go change my clothes. And then let's scatter some gories. Ashleigh : She did what she could. I guess. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : CD, cD jacket. Think I'm set. Dale : Were you able to include any "Darwin lied"? Rusty : I tried, Dale, but damnation seems like a little bit of a romance kller. Dale : You know what Emma's gonna like, anyway? Rusty : I don't, which is why I emailed her a detailed questionnaire with multiple options in each musical category. She hasn't sent it back, though, so I thought I'd give her some choices that she can cross-reference while deciding. Dale : Man, that's my third email from Tina today. She's really chompin'at the U-Sag bit. I think she's gonna come by our meeting tomorrow. Rusty : I don't get the attraction. Tina's one of the most abrasive people I've ever met. Dale : I'm just not intimidated by strong women. And U-Sag is a big tent organization. CRU - Café Ashleigh : Oh Calvin ! Over here. Calvin : Let me just go grab some coffee. Ashleigh : No! Sit. Calvin : Or... not. Ashleigh : Why don't we have mixers anymore? Calvin : "We" meaning "you and I"? Ashleigh : "We" meaning ZBZ and Omega Chi. You guys totally shut down the idea of having a mixer with us? What's up with that? Calvin : I still have no idea what you're talking about. Ashleigh : Casey said that she got a seriously strong negative reaction from Dino when she invited you guys to mix with us. Calvin : Really? That's weird. When it comes to getting back together with the ZBZs, my sense is most of the guys are fine with it, including Dino. Ashleigh : I need you to do something for me. Calvin : Okay, let me just grab... Ashleigh : No. So this is what I need you to do. CRU – Emma & Tina’s door Rusty : "Indelible." Crap. Girl : See you at dinner, Tina. Rusty : Hey Tina. Tina : What are you doing with our white board? Rusty : I just came by to drop off a CD for Emma, and it just fell off. And I thought I would just take it back to my dorm room, slap some adhesive on it, and bring it back. Tina : It fell? Rusty : Crazy? Good thing I was here. And I have adhesive in my room, so... I'm gonna go. Tina : I can't speak for Emma, but I really don't appreciate being part of these little frat pranks. Give me back my white board. Rusty : This has nothing to do with the fraternity. Tina : Then give it back. Don't you think it would have been simpler to just erase it? Rusty : Yes, but... Okay, I used their marker, and it's indelible. Who knew? Tina : Yeah, they're in the middle of this feud with these guys down the hall. Hey, if you could find one with a corkboard, that'd be great. Rusty : Hey, can you just give this to Emma for me? Tina : Any message? Something... Short and limp? Rusty : Just say it's from Rusty. Here. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Meeting room Calvin : All right. Look, we all know the ZBZs have been looked down upon ever since the article. But it's old news. I think it's time we gave them a second chance. They're the same girls that we partied with last semester, and they're awesome. I just don't think we should keep punishing them for something that could have happened to any of us. Evan : I think my little brother is well-intentioned, but, in this particular case, missguided. I mean, come on, guys. The events of the past few months have just shown us who they really are. I mean, they're a house... That... Always puts their own interests first, and ultimately can't be trusted. I mean, no matter how much we might wanna trust them. Dino : Do you really believe that? Evan : Look, if this is about having a mixer, the Tri Pis are always available. Calvin : A little too available. Dino : Why don't we put it to a vote? All those in favor of continuing to shut out the ZBZs? All those opposed. ZBZs have it. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey : What, did they just announce a new season of "America's Next Top Model"? Ashleigh : Better! Kyle, the Omega Chi social chair, just came by to invite the Zeta betas to mix with them this weekend. Casey : Wow, that's... That's so not what they said before. But great. Ashleigh : We're gonna have to scramble a little to get the registration forms and keg application into the dean's office in time. But where there's a will, there's a way to get through with the new party restrictions. Right? Casey : Right. We're back on with the Omega Chis. I wonder how all of this happened. Ashleigh : Case, did you ever actually talk to Dino about a mixer? Casey : Why would you even ask me that? Ashleigh : 'cause I talked to Calvin. And from what he was hearing at the house, it didn't sound like you had. Casey : Let's go see that... That was really fun. Right? I really meant to. I wanted to. I went over there, and Evan answered the door, and he was all cold and judgey. I knew what I should say, but I couldn't talk. I couldn't give him the satisfaction of knowing I wanted anything from him. Ashleigh : It's one night. One night that'll make two houses very happy. And all you have to do is sign our half of the registration forms and get through a few hours with Evan. And I have a plan for that. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Hey, guys. Emma loved the CD. I just got a text from her. "T-h-x" with an exclamation point. Sanjay : A bake sale? Ted : Car washes? Dale : Just keep reading. So I guess she wasn't phased by the white board incident. Rusty : I told you, Dale, she gets me. I just want to give her a couple more song choices before class. Sanjay : This is truly ambitious. Rusty : What are you guys doing? Dale : We're meeting with Tina later that afternoon about U-Sag. I just want the guys here to be up to speed on all our suggestions. Rusty : That's a lot of suggestions. Dale : Tina's a real dynamo. And I feel like, you know, it's my job now to harness all her energy. Sanjay : That sounds dirty. Ted : You think everything sounds dirty. Dale : Guys, could we focus? Tina : Dale? You ready? Dale : Come in. Hey. Let me introduce you to Sanjay and Ted. Sanjay : Hi. Ted : Hi. Tina : Sanjay, Ted. Ishmael. So are you guys ready to go? I had a bunch of posters made up. Dale : Posters? But, I mean, we haven't really went over... Tina : We gotta grow this thing. I've got a hammer, and the rest of you guys could just use your shoes. Come on, guys, let's go! Hurry up! Rusty : Nice harnessing. Got extra shoes? KT HOUSE – Living room Rebecca : Anybody know where the charger to Cappie's little video game machine is? Heath : Nope. Rebecca : I don't suppose you have any saltine crackers. Anybody? KT Guy : How 'bout some peanuts? They're warm. Rebecca : Works for me! Okay. I will pay anyone $200 to take this tray up to Cappie's room and watch Reba with him. We're on season five! Heath : No one goes into Cappie's room when he's sick. KT Guy : It's like going into the Bermuda Triangle. With germs. Heath : The only one brave enough to do that was... Rebecca : Casey. I know. KT Guy : I hear she never left his side. Heath : Yeah, she was a real angel of mercy. CRU - Classroom Rusty : Hey... Emma : Hey! Rusty : I also brought you a set of push pins. Because, look, it's got a corkboard on it. And a new set of dry erase pens. 'cause you don't want any more accidents. Emma : No, that's for sure. Thanks. Rusty : And I got you a cup of coffee. Careful. And a full selection of additives. Emma : Wow. Rusty : Last, but not least, here is a few more song samples, an updated hard copy of the cd questionnaire. I figured, since you hadn't responded, you were having trouble downloading the attachment. Emma : Rusty, this is amazing. The only bad thing is now I feel like a real jerk for having to postpone our date tonight. Rusty : Oh. Emma : I have a paper due on Monday for my philosophy class. And I... Thought I'd be a lot further along than I am. So now I have to work on it all weekend. I'm really sorry. Rusty : That's okay. When you're dating a student, you have to expect these kinds of things, right? Emma : Right. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Ashleigh : There, now you only have to come in contact with Evan once. When you check his ID. And stamp his hand. Or his face. Casey : Ash ! Ashleigh : Like you wouldn't love to. Rebecca : Nice to see the Greek world back on its axis. Casey : How's Cappie? Contagious? Rebecca : Probably. Whatever. Casey : Enjoy your soda. Rebecca : Thanks, Casey. Casey : This night not be so bad after all. Ashleigh : There's Calvin. Are you okay here? Casey : Sure, I'm fine. Have fun. Ashleigh : Thanks. Casey : Hey, Evan Let me just stamp your hand and then you can go get started. Evan : You're ZBZ party patrol? Casey : Your guy hasn't shown up yet. Evan : Actually, he has. It's me. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Frannie : Oh, my God. Is this a reunion of... More than just our houses? Or just an incredibly awkward coincidence? Evan : You're holding up the line, Frannie. Ashleigh : Do you think people can really change? Calvin : Right now, I'm more concerned about having something that combustible so close to the alcohol. Ashleigh : I think they're gonna be okay. Let's go mingle. Evan : If you stamp that hard, it makes the ink wet. If the ink stays wet, it's easier for them to transfer stamps. Casey : If you guys had invested in wristbands instead of stamps, we wouldn't have to worry about it. Have fun. Evan : You didn't check her ID. Casey : She's over 21. I've known her for two years. Evan : It doesn't matter. You still have to check her ID. Casey : Right. I guess knowing someone for two years doesn't mean that much in the end. ZBZ Girl : I'm over 21, Casey. Casey : Beer is high in carbs and it makes you bloat. I'm doing you a favor. Evan : I guess you always gotta make me be the bad guy. So you can play the victim again. Man up, Condon. Casey : Whatever role I play, I have to be a mime, since you never stop accusing long enough to let me get a word in. Evan : You mean you think you have some... Some reasonable explanation for kissing Cappie after I lavaliered you? Casey : How about that I'm human? That I make mistakes? Like you did when you rush-humped Rebecca. Evan : Will you ever quit playing that card? I was never in love with Rebecca. Casey : You... move! Move! Just move! So? Ashleigh : Can I get re-stamped? Evan : Listen, it wasn't the same level of betrayal, okay? You obviously still had feelings for Cappie. Casey : And I still have feelings for Cappie, Evan. Just like I still have feelings for you. Maybe I always will. Unlike the super-human Evan Chambers, I don't seem to have control over how I feel about people. Most of the time however, I do have control over what I do about those feelings. And what I did was choose you. I thought that was the most important thing. Clearly, in your world, it isn't. And then you dumped me without trying to talk, without giving me the second chance I gave you. Evan : O'Toole. Perfect. You're gonna have to do this, man, you're it. I need a drink. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : Dr. Logan. You're... A scary scandinavian woman. Nurse : It's nurse Von Lembke. But you can call me Helga. Cappie : Why would I wanna do that? Nurse : Rebecca Logan sent me. She said it's time for you to get well. Shall we start with the nasal irrigation? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Emma must be really working hard. She's not even answering her phone. I just hope she got that care package I sent her. Dale : Could you keep your voice down, please? Rusty : Why? Dale : 'cause Tina said she was coming over, and I do not want to talk to her. And put your phone on vibrate. Rusty : Whatever happened to "Not being intimidated by strong women", "Harnessing that dynamo"? Dale : She's trying to take over U-Sag. She emails me at least a dozen times a day. She put her email on all the flyers. Now she's even got Ted and Sanjay including a prayer for a greater U-Sag profile on campus in their daily intercessions. Rusty : Well, Dale, you just can't hide out here. You're eventually going to have to talk to her. Dale : No, I won't. Rusty : Are you just gonna will her away? Dale : I believe in science and creationism. My mind is a powerful instrument. Tina : Hello? It's Tina. Anybody in there? Dale : Don't say anything. Tina : Is that you, Dale? I'm actually here to see Rusty. Dale : It's a ruse. Don't fall for it. Do not let her in. Rusty : Don't be ridiculous, Dale. Tina : What's going on in there? Rusty : What's going on in there is that Dale wants U-Sag back. Tina : What are you talking about? Rusty : You... overstepping your boundaries. As much as I disagree with U-Sag, it's important to Dale. It's his brainchild. You took a simple invitation to join, and you ran wild with it. Tina : I thought that the goal was to get rid of the Greek system. Rusty : It is, unfortunately. But... Dale wants to do it his way. And you had no right to come in and pull the rug out from under him. The guy's freaked out. So you just need to back off. Tina : Yeah, well, I didn't come here to talk about U-Sag anyway. I came here to give you this. It's from Emma. Your care package. I mean, between the cd and the white board and the coffee and the questionnaire, and now this... I mean, you're scaring her. She wants you to back off. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Evan : Frannie... What do you want? Frannie : To apologize. For screwing things up with you and Casey last semester. Evan : I don't even wanna think about me and Casey anymore. Frannie : Or maybe I can help. Evan kisses Frannie. Frannie : My... Not exactly what I had in mind. Evan : Really? Frannie : Look, Evan... You're a gorgeous guy, with many, many fine attributes. You're also... Clearly Still working out some issues. I'm not interested in being anyone's warm body. Evan : I got it. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey just woke up. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Calvin : Evan. Evan : I need my shoes. Where are my shoes? Calvin : Right there. Evan : Yes, okay. Calvin : You look like crap. Where are you going? Evan : I'm gonna go tell Casey I'm an idiot, and I want her back. Calvin : Good luck with that. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Hallway Evan : Casey. You look amazing. Casey : I feel pretty amazing. I'm done, Evan. Evan : Done with what? Casey : With all this. I'm finished being angry with you. I woke up this morning and I finally realized no matter what I say or do, I can't change the past. Or how you feel about it. And I'm done trying. I'm finally ready to move on. Evan : Move on... From us? Casey : Yeah. Evan : And what if I was less of a jealous idiot? Casey : Then I'd think maybe we could be friends... If you think you can do that. Evan : Friends? Casey : Think about it. See ya around campus... Evan Chambers. CRU - Street Rusty : Hey, you're up early. Emma : I've got coffee, thanks. Rusty : This one's mine. Look, Emma... I just want to apologize for coming on so strong. I never meant to scare you or seem like a crazy person. Emma : That's okay. Rusty : Yeah, I guess I'm just... Overly enthusiastic. I really liked you. And I really liked being in a relationship when I was in one before. And I guess when it... Seemed like I might have a sht at a new one, I kind of jumped the g*n. I'm sorry for the firearms metaphors. Emma : Don't worry about it. Rusty : Yeah, I don't know. It's probably obvious that... I don't have a lot of experience in the romance department. But I'm a fast learner. And maybe if I totally put the brakes on, we can try again. Emma : Yeah. No. But I'll see you in class, okay? ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : Frannie. Frannie : Casey. Casey : We need to talk. Frannie : About what? Casey : Do you still wanna move back into the house? Frannie : Yeah. Casey : Then do it. You're officially off probation. We're moving forward. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : Good morning. Rebecca : What did you do to him? Nurse : You know the rules, Ms. Logan. What happens in Cappie's room stays in Cappie's room. Rebecca : Still contagious, right? Cappie : No, I was just wearing this because, apparently, Helga likes pirates. Rebecca : You two... Cappie : Did not. I am currently a one-woman man. Rebecca : Look, Cappie... I am not now, nor will I ever be Casey Cartwright... Perfect girlfriend, angel of mercy. Cappie : Well, thank God. Rebecca : You really are a colossal pain in the ass when you're sick, you know that? I don't know how she stood you. Cappie : Well, she is an angel. And she discovered my achilles heel. Cough syrup. Knocks me on my butt. She'd give me a dose, climb out the window, and come back by the time I need another one. No one knew. She didn't even think I knew. What? Rebecca : Only makes me like her more. Cappie : Really? We talkin' threesome now? Rebecca : Who said you're invited? Cappie : You're bad. You naughty little girl. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Tina : I had a new idea for a U-Sag flyer, and I just wanted to run it by Dale and see if he would sign off on it. Rusty : I'll make sure he gets it. Tina : Hey Rusty. For what it's worth, Emma likes her crazy on the outside, not the inside. You're the first guy she's gone out with all semester that's not covered in tattoos and body piercings. Rusty : I'm not crazy, okay? Tina : And I'm not an egomaniacal control freak. Look... you probably won't understand this, and I don't even know why I feel the need to explain it to you, but I like to be in things. And all the ramp-up, getting-to-know-you part makes me feel anxious. So I kind of sort of just jump over it. Which can make me seem a little... pushy. Okay? Well, you better watch out for us, frat boy. Go, U-Sag!	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x16 - Move on Cartwrights"}	foreverdreaming
KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Gentlemen! We are at the threshold of an invasion by a vast and powerful army, an international force that strikes fear and awe into the hearts of the bravest among us. Rusty : It's an Omega Chi retaliation. Cappie : Freshmen parents' weekend. Now, as tradition dictates, every house on Greek row hosts some sort of event for your folks to enjoy. Wade : And to let them see the money they drop on dues every semester is being well-spent. Cappie : As usual, we at Kappa Tau host our annual barbecue. And as usual, preparation of said events falls on your... at times questionable shoulders. Am I hearing whining? Wade : I think you are, Cap. Cappie : Freshmen parents' weekend. Freshmen do the work. And even if it wasn't, need I remind you... pledges. Now, the very nature of this event is entirely up to you. You gonna clean up, you gonna put a little extra effort in, make it all spiffy for mom and pa? Or are you gonna show yourselves off in your natural habitat and fly that Kappa Tau flag freely? Rusty : We're flying our flag? Gonzo : Come on, Spitter. This ain't high school anymore. We do what we want when we want. Ben Bennet : Who cares what our parents think? As pledge class president, I say no cleaning. And we'll heat up some hot dogs... maybe. Rusty : Cap, both my parents are professors. I don't think they're exactly gonna appreciate the Kappa Tau flag. Cappie : Rus, your pledge brothers have chosen. Besides, what are your parents going to expect, really? You told them about us. CRU - Airport Casey : What do you mean, mom and dad don't know about Kappa Tau? I know you talked about it over break. Would you just... Rusty : Sorry. We did. I just haven't told them any real specifics. Casey : So what do they know? Rusty : They think it's a service fraternity. Casey : A service fraternity? Rusty : The Kappa Tau service. Casey : The beer industry. Rusty : I've never lied to mom and dad before. How can I tell them the truth? You know how they feel about the Greek system, especially mom. It's a dangerous distraction... Casey : From academics and your future. I've heard. If you need a living, breathing example of someone who manages to survive without parental approval... Look no further. Rusty : Maybe you can help me explain it to them. Come on, they've accepted your involvement at ZBZ. Casey : First, "accepted" isn't the word I'd use, and secondly, this whole weekend is about you, little man. I'll be entertaining a senator and his wife, which means press coverage. Which means nationals will be all over it. Which means I don't have time to manage Karen and Russell. Rusty : Wow. Casey : Just tell them the truth. Dad'll give you his stern, yet understanding frown. Mom will just put her hand on her chest and look disappointed and judgmental. You can take it. Rusty : Yeah, you're right. I'm a big boy. I can do this. I'm gonna tell 'em the truth. I'm gonna tell 'em the Kappa Taus are a regular fraternity. They don't give a crap about academics, and they like to party. Airport : Flight 510 from Chicago has arrived at Gate number 3. Casey : Look, in 47 hours and 11 minutes, we'll be back here sending them home to Chicago. Rusty : Oh my God, I can't tell them the truth. It's gonna kll them. Casey : Hey Mom. Rusty : Hi Mom. Karen : There's my little big man! Rusty : I missed you. Karen : I missed you too. You look great. Hey honey. How are you? You look lovely. That's wonderful. Casey : I know. Karen : I'm so excited to spend some time with you guys. Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Dinig room Casey : Where are the spoons? And we need extra forks, please. Could you put this back in the fridge? It'll be sour by the time everyone gets here this afternoon. Frannie : Is there anything I can do to help? What's Senator Logan's ETA? Did you speak with him directly? Casey : His aide confirmed this morning. They know when the tea is starting. Frannie : If you ever need anyone to delegate, you can just delegate out to... Sorry. Overstepping. Aren't you excited, though? We're hosting a US Senator and his wife. A man who every day makes decisions that effect great change for this nation. I have a million questions. Casey : My only question for them is at what age did they have Rebecca's horns and demon tail removed? Frannie : Right. So I'm surprised the Omega Chis haven't tried to get in on the senator action. Casey : Ashleigh heard they're taking parents to Canyon Lake for a weekend retreat. Frannie : So... you haven't been in touch with Evan since the mixer. Casey : Not really. Why? Frannie : No reason. I'll go make sure that the cream is safe and chilled. Ashleigh : She making you crazy? Casey : She's not. Rebecca : Just a reminder. My mother likes chamomile tea with a twist of lemon, and my father hates biscotti. Casey : This is the first I'm hearing about the biscotti. Ashleigh : Breathe. This is manageable. We'll just separate the biscotti out like the loser crouton cookie-wannabes they are. And everything's gonna be fine. Casey : Thank you. Ashleigh : So what about your parents? Are they gonna come by? They missed our freshmen parents' weekend 'cause you got sick. Remember ? Casey : And then I miraculously got well when they decided not to come. Ashleigh : Yeah, that was crazy. And I am so stupid. Casey : No, you're not. You're not stupid. You just have great, nonjudgmental parents that you never lie to. You can't imagine other people lying to theirs. Ashleigh : But you're awesome. Casey : But I'm not Rusty. They get him. They don't get me. They don't get the whole greek thing. Ashleigh : But they're okay with the KTs? Casey : That is Rusty's problem. Me? I'm on tap for a few meals this weekend, and that's it. Which is exactly how I want it. Does anyone like biscotti? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : A student photography exhibit? Love that. And Professor Bernstein is doing a Tai Chi demonstration. Dale : When are you taking 'em over to your house of ill repute? Rusty : I don't think they'll find that as interesting as... the parents' fireside chat at Lockhart Pavilion. Dale : That's good. You're embarrassed. Means your conscience is kicking in. Rusty : I'm not embarrassed, Dale. It's just not part of my life they'd understand. Dale : When I told my parents about your descent into the Greek sect, my mother cried, my father said "GD" for the first time in his life. Rusty : Why'd you tell them? Dale : 'Cause they're my best friends. Somebody knocks on the door. All : Kettlewells! Fred : Come here! Norma : You look wonderful, sugar toes. Dale : You always say that, mom. Fred : And she always means it. Now, how are you, son? Dale : I'm wonderful. Fred : This is Norma. I'm Fred. You must be Rusty. Rusty : Yes, Sir and nice to meet you. Norma : We've heard a lot about you. Rusty : What's that? Dale : An air mattress. You know, 'cause of my dad's sciatica, he can't just sleep on the floor. Rusty : They're sleeping here? Dale : Yeah. They're only here for two days. We want to spend as much time together as possible. Rusty : Great... I just didn't realize they were bunking with us. Norma : We're very tolerant people, Rusty. Fred : I see you're getting a lot of mileage out of your granddad's flag. Dale : He'd be proud. CRU - Street Cappie : What's it like being a senator's daughter? Rebecca : What's it like being a hippie's son? Cappie : My parents are too young to be ones. They're free spirits. And hemp connoisseurs. And there's nothing special about being their son. Rebecca : Neither is being a senator's daughter. Cappie : Except for the money, the power, the prestige, the press. Rebecca : The restriction, the phonies, the scrutiny. Cappie : You make it sound a lot more fun than I do. Rebecca : Can we please not talk about my family? Cappie : Look, I just want some pre-introduction stats. Like is your father a cigar guy or an "all smoking is bad" guy? Or is he into golf or team sports? What about your mom? Is she... Rebecca : You're not gonna meet them, okay? I just don't wanna do the whole meet the parents thing. Cappie : Oh. Ok. I was just thinking we could have a nice meal with some amuse-bouche, something poached, maybe chutneyed. Rebecca : I'm sorry. This is new, and it's nice. And I don't wanna jam it under the parent microscope yet. Is that all right? Cappie : Yeah. Yeah, fine. Sure. Your call. CRU - Restaurant Rusty : So you ready to work off this massive brunch? Here. Russel : What's this? What an extensive selection of events. Karen : Honey, look! It's an astronomical introduction to the night sky. I'd love to hear their take on Pluto. Stupid dwarf planet. Rusty : And then after lunch, we have this fun... geological walking tour of the campus. And then there's an open house at the engineering department. We have an historical walking tour of the campus, a special lecture on cyberspace and metapolitics, dinner... Then bed. Karen : Casey, will you be joing us today? Casey : You know, I would love to. Cyber-politics and meta-space are always hard to pass up. But I am slammed this weekend. And I figured freshmen parents' weekend. You being the parents, Rusty being the freshman... I'll see you all at dinner tonight. Russel : Sorority's keeping you busy, huh? Casey : Actually, we're hosting a US senator today... Senator Ken Logan. A man who every day makes decisions that effect great change in our nation. Karen : Well, a sorority is a good place for Senator Logan. I mean, after all of his votes against funding higher education... He'd be an idiot to go anywhere near anything remotely academic on a college campus. Casey : ZBZ has the highest cumulative grade point average of all the sororities on campus. Karen : Well, that's great, honey. What about your fraternity, Rusty? Serious, like-minded boys without any sort of animal housedistractions. I mean, you must be pushing a 4.0. Rusty : I'm not sure if anyone's added it up. Casey : Or could. Karen : What was that, honey? Casey : Coffee. It's good. Russel : I don't see anything about your little fraternity on here. Are we gonna be able to check that out later? Rusty : Unfortunately, it's closed this weekend. Because most of the guys are out of town. In Mexico. Building huts. Russel : Is that right? Rusty : It's for humanity. Like habitat for humanity. But huts, so... Hubitat. They're great people. Casey : You guys should probably get going. Don't wanna miss any of that tour. Karen : You're right. Miss you. Casey : Bye Rusty, bye mom, bye dad. CRU – Street Girl : Now, this sedimentary dolomite rock happens to be known as big singer. Not because it actually sings. But because back when this was a sugar beet farm, the pickers used to have their lunch... Next to this rock and sing whimsical folk songs... About how they enjoyed working together. Beaver : Spitter, Spitter.... Spitter ??? Girl : She'll be comin'around the mountain... Beaver : Are these the crazy Cartwrights? Russel : I don't know about crazy... Karen : I'm Karen. This is Russell. Beaver : Hi. I'm the... Rusty : Charles. Beaver : Huh? My... my name isn't... Rusty : These are my parents. Beaver : You got a good kid here. He's a little uptight, but we're working on that, right? Rusty : Yeah. Beaver : I'll see you at the house. Karen : The house? Beaver : Kappa Tau. For parents' weekend. You're... you're coming, right? Rusty : Right. Russel : What about Mexico? Beaver : Gee, that'd be kind of far away, but real fun. Don't forget the cups. Karen : Nice to meet you, Charles. Girl : Are there any questions? Russel : What happened to building huts? Rusty : They must have gotten done early. Girl : If you'll follow me, please. Rusty : Tour's leaving. You don't wanna miss the titan botanical gardens. It's a highlight. Karen : Why did he call you Spitter? Rusty : That's my nickname. Yeah. I spit on injustice everywhere. Figuratively. ZBZ HOUSE – Dinig room Casey : And, Ash, make sure there are ZBZs near him at all times to maximize photo ops. While Senator, Mrs. Logan and the press are here, they are priority numero uno. Ashleigh : Got it. Casey : I hope your folks will be favorably impressed. Rebecca : They'll be touched by your concern for their happiness and... Wait... I still see biscotti. Casey : Mom, Dad... Rusty ? What are you doing here? Russel : Change of plans. Rusty's fraternity's throwing a last-minute dinner tonight. Rusty : The KT barbecue. I realized I need a little time to help my brothers at the service fraternity get the place ready before mom and dad come over. Karen : And we thought since we hadn't gone to your parents' weekend your freshman year, that, why not give it a sht now? Why not? Unless it's some trouble, and then we can always go back to the hotel. Russel : Or pitch in and help Rusty's fraternity. Would they mind that? Casey : No... trouble at all. It's great. Come on in and have some tea. Rusty : I'll see you at dinner tonight. Love you. CRU - Street Dale : This is the route I take every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 10 a.m. To solid state chemistry with Dr. Juergens. Which reminds me... I actually have a paper I kinda need to go finish. Fred : But we want to trace every moment of how you spend your day. Norma : And photograph it! Let's go! I got a new pair of scholl's. Dale : Let's go. KT HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Ok. Look. I know nobody cares what their parents think. Unfortunately, I do. I just wanna clean up a little. I'll do it myself. No one has to help. Cappie : Oh. Spitter. Are you showing shame for the KT ways? Rusty : I know. I'm sorry. But I am trying to live up to the Cartwright ways. My parents are not ready to see the new Rusty. Cappie : Your parents aren't ready? Rusty : I'm not ready to show him to them. They like me the way I was. Cappie : It's not like you had a sex change operation, Spitter. But... your adam's apple is a bit less pronounced. Rusty : Come on, Cap. Cappie : Ease up. You're not alone. Happens every year. Friday night, you're all a bunch of tough guys, and Saturday morning, you turn into Amelia Bedelias. Go on, grab your apron. Get to work. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Casey : And if you guys want some coffee, we have regular and decaf. Russel : I doubt the boys' little soiree will be quite this impressive. Karen : I'm sure most of the money goes towards philanthropy rather than entertaining. Casey : Case, do you gals have any biscotti? Check the chairs. Stay here. I'll be right back. Senator Logan : Rebecca ! Rebecca : Daddy ! Senator Logan : Look at you. You look wonderful. Rebecca : Thank you! Where's mom? Senator Logan : Mom wasn't feeling very well. But I get you to myself all weekend. Rebecca : What's wrong? Senator Logan : Nothing to worry about. She's just a little tired. Casey : Senator Logan. I'm Casey Cartwright. President of the ZBZs. Senator Logan : Nice to meet you, madame president. This is some house. Casey : Please make yourself at home. Rebecca : Daddy ? What happened? Senator Logan : Sweetheart, there's nothing to discuss. I'm here, and we're gonna have a great weekend together. Now, we have reservations for dinner tonight. And tomorrow, I expect you'll be my date at the dean's reception, okay? Wow. Will you look at this spread? Ken Logan. Karen : Senator. Senator Logan : Which one of these impressive young ladies is yours? Casey : I'm hers. She's mine. Karen : My daughter and I were talking earlier about your higher education funding. Casey : Would you... excuse us? I need to... Come. Russel : Nice to meet you. Karen : Casey, I wasn't gonna att*ck the man. I was gonna ask him a question which, as an elected official, he should be able to field. Casey : But... here? Write the guy a letter. Karen : Fine. Fine. Well, let's talk about you. Ashleigh : Hi. I'm Ashleigh. I'm Casey's roommate. I can't tell you how much morale has improved since Casey's become president. She basically saved us from losing our charter, which would have been... Whatever. But because of her hard work, we are still in good standing. Karen : That's terrific, Ashleigh. Ashleigh : Yeah, it really is. Because now we can focus all our energy on the reasons we joined ZBZ in the first place. Like parties and mixers and... Sister bonding. And... rituals, traditions. Casey : Wow, you guys are out of tea. Ash, would you get them some more? Ashleigh : Philanthropy. Casey : My grades are good. Everything's fine. And I am still very much considering law school. Karen : To be a lawyer? Casey : I'm not... sure... At this exact moment. Karen : Well, before you go down a road, you need to know where you're headed. Casey : Well, I'm thinking about politics. Karen : Casey, honey, come on. This is your junior year. You need to start making some tough decisions. Casey : Now? At a sorority tea? Karen : Look at Rusty. He's focused. He's getting his BS in polymer sci. He's going to graduate, go to graduate school. He's gonna go to JPL... Casey : As you've made clear, I am not him. Russel : We don't expect you to be Rusty. Casey : What I want is to be at the center of things, to be challenged and inspired. I'm just not sure what form that's going to take. Karen : If you took a little less time with your social life and saving the sorority, you could be specific. Russel : We worry about you. Casey : Don't. Why don't you just try having a little faith in me instead of constantly telling me everything I'm interested in or good at is a waste of time. Ashleigh : More tea? CRU - Doblers Casey : Whiskey and diet. Cappie : Tough day on the road crew, Mack? Casey : My parents are here. Cappie : Jeez, between you and your brother, I'm expecting the parental Cartwrights to be some kind of oozing green monsters with, I don't know... Your smile, maybe Rusty's hair. Casey : Worse. They look perfectly normal. And if you met them, you, like everyone else, would love them. Cappie : In two hours, I'll get to test that theory. Casey : Right! Right, my parents are going to Kappa Tau. This'll be fun. Cappie : And... this pleases you? Because you think they'll disapprove of us. Casey : Oh yeah. But I'm not proud of wanting that. Cappie : You know, it's so inspiring to see such a caring sibling relationship. Be warned. KTs actually might surprise you. Casey : It'll take more than bleach, furniture polish to fool Karen Cartwright. So, speaking of parents, what do you think of senator Logan? Cappie : From what I've seen on tv, he's a handsome man who uses a little too much hair product. But he's avoided the comb-over, so he gets my vote. Casey : You haven't met him yet. Cappie : Not going to. Apparently, I'm not senate ready, which, by the way, I totally am. Casey : You really like her. Cappie : Yeah. Casey : I'm sorry. I didn't realize it was parent serious. Cappie : Well, it's... It's not. Not exactly. Casey : Fine. It's not. You should cut her some slack, though, when it comes to her dad. Cappie : Wait... a... minute. Are you sticking up for Rebecca Logan? Casey : You see? Parents show up, and everything goes nuts. Cappie : Cheers to that. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Norma : Honey ? Tater tot. Honestly. Sweetie, it's rude to have these on when someone's trying to talk to you. Dale : Well, I had them on, so I didn't know you were trying to talk to me. What did you want? Norma : Well, I was wondering if you'd be... Up for another round of uno. Or hearts, maybe. You gotta give me a chance to win back some of my toothpicks! Fred : I'm smelling a card game-athon! Dale : You know, I actually just realized I think I have to step out for a minute. Norma : We'll go with you. Dale : I'll just be a second. Fred : Come on, Daley. Just let me slip my shoes on. My feet are swelling. Your feet starting to swell, son? Dale : No. No, they're not. Norma : Look at the time! It's 4:30! It's dinnertime! Is it? No wonder my stomach's been growling like a tiger. 'course, you wouldn't know, 'cause you had your headphones on. Dale : I sure did. CRU - Hotel Senator Logan : Becca, I was just coming down to the lobby to see you. Rebecca : Surprise. Senator Logan : I'm starving. You ready to eat? Yeah, Heather made us reservations for 6:30 at Red Door. Rebecca : No offense to Heather, but I think I'd rather go somewhere else. CRU - Street Karen : I wasn't sure if you were coming. Casey : We said we were having dinner together. Karen : Yes, we did, but, you know, after what happened earlier... Russel : Which was in the past. Now we're traveling to the future. A night of family fun. Karen : You're right. I'm sorry. Let's just look forward to having a lovely evening with all of us together. Casey : I know I'm looking forward to it. I can't wait to see what you two think of Kappa Tau. KT HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Hi. Karen : Hi. Casey : Nice banner. Thanks. Doesn't it look good? Cappie : Mr. And Mrs. Cartwright. I'm Cappie, president of Kappa Tau Gamma. Karen : Kudos to you and all the work that you kids do. Cappie : Thank you so much. Well, we are very committed to what we do here. Russel : You could use a fresh coat of paint out front. Cappie : Well, sir, our paint money goes to much more urgent causes. Let me show you around. Please. KT HOUSE - Garden Russel : Go, go get some food. Rusty : I'll see you in a second. Hey. Casey : I can't believe you got these guys to put on this ridiculous show. Rusty : Well, I learned from the best. You've been pulling this off most of your life. Now it's my turn. Casey : Yep. You're perfect. Rusty : Thanks again for helping out this afternoon. I mean it. Casey : Anytime, Russ. Rusty : Listen, there's a... another party. There's arealparty when all the parents leave if you wanna come back. Thanks again. Casey : Anytime. Rebecca : Dad, I'd like you to meet Cappie, my boyfriend. Cappie : Senator Logan. It's a pleasure to meet you. Senator Logan : Nice to meet you. Cappie : Had I known you were coming, I would have worn socks. Rebecca : No need for that. I want him to meet you just as you are. Cappie : This is my friend... Beaver : Charles. A pleasure, sir. Senator Logan : Nice to meet you. Beaver : Excuse me. Cappie : So, are you enjoying your stay, Sir? Senator Logan : Very much. Beautiful campus. Beautiful weather. Cappie : Yeah, the wea... You ever notice that it's about 20 degrees warmer here than anywhere else in the state? We never have to wear coats. Who said there's no upside to global warming? Senator Logan : Who said there's such a thing as global warming? So, you from around here? Cappie : No, sir. No, northern California. Rebecca : But his family moved around a lot. Senator Logan : In the military. Rebecca : Deadheads. Followed the band everywhere. Senator Logan : Well, I'd love to meet them. Cappie : They're not here. This is freshman parents' weekend. I'm a junior. Senator Logan : So, Cappie, what is your area of study? Rebecca : Cappie's declared a lot of majors. Cappie : I have a voracious intellectual appetite. Rebecca : And he's not very ambitious. Cappie : Would you excuse us, sir? Why are you trying to make me look like Kevin Federline? Rebecca : Hey, Kevin Federline's an upstanding citizen. Cappie : You know what I mean. I'm trying to get your father to like me, and you're making me look like a... You don't want him. Rebecca : I don't care who he likes. Cappie : Yes, you do. And you're trying to use me to piss him off. Rebecca : Come on. You can take it. Cappie : Tell your father it was nice to meet him. Rebecca : Where are you going? Cappie : If you wanna piss off daddy, fine. Just leave me out of it. Rebecca : Cappie, come on! KT HOUSE – Living room Karen : Well, this was so fun. My first frat party. Rusty : Yes. I'm so glad you guys came. Russel : You sure we can't coax you out for some dessert? Rusty : I can't. I can't, all right? Pledges have to clean up. Ben Bennett : We just hate waking up to a mess. Rusty : Recycling. Karen : Well, of course! Well, I guess it's just us then. Casey : I guess so. Karen : Bye, honey. Rusty : Bye. Karen : It was wonderful. Russel : So proud of you. Rusty : Bye, dad. Bye, Casey. Casey : Rusty. Rusty : See ya. Yes. CRU – Street – Casey’s car Russel : Did you know that Ben Bennett is a kidney donor? Casey : I hadn't heard that. Russel : I didn't hear it from ben himself. One of the brothers told me about it, and I think it's great. Karen : It is so amazing. What an impressive collection of young men. I mean, wholesome and helpful, and, you know, committed to social welfare. Russel : It would be Rusty who goes off to college to find a group like this. Karen : Hey, you know, the Kappa Tau could come and give a kind of... A how-to philanthropy seminar to your sorority. Whoa... sweetheart! Where are you going? Casey : I forgot something at Kappa Tau. KT HOUSE – Living room Karen : Wow, where did everybody go? Russel : Case, what'd you forget? Casey : I left it in the basement. Russel : Since when were you in the basement? What's going on here? Karen : Who are these people? Casey : Katrina victims. Russel : Where's Rusty? Casey : I don't know. Hey, Rusty? Rusty : Mom, dad... I don't drink. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey : He totally deserved it, right? I mean, putting on the whole mr. Little perfect act at everyone else's expense. Ashleigh : I just can't believe anyone would buy the kts as a service fraternity. How did they explain the vomit smell? Casey : If it was associated with my brother, my parents probably thought it smelled like Roses. Ashleigh : You're like scary mad. Rusty : Yeah, I am. Why would you ambush me like that? Casey : You're 18 years old, Rusty. It's time for you to stand up to mom and dad and fight. Rusty : For what? My right to party? You knew they weren't gonna understand. Casey : You wanted to join a fraternity. Why not just say it? Rusty : Because I'm not like you. I care what mom and dad think of me. Casey : News flash... so do I. And I am so tired of them thinking you're perfect and I'm ridiculous. Rusty : Yeah, well, you try being Casey Cartwright's dorky little brother. Your sister's so pretty. Your sister's so cool. Your sister has friends. You were like perfect. Casey : To everyone except mom and dad. Rusty : They're making me quit Kappa Tau. Casey : What? Rusty : Personally, I'd rather they thought I was ridiculous. CRU – Living room Ashleigh : Cheesoritos. That's a cry for help. What's wrong? Rebecca : I think it's over with Cappie. Ashleigh : Sorry. So did you cheat? Lie? Well, you haven't been together long enough for the slow, relentless dimming of passion. Rebecca : I humiliated him. Ashleigh : Why? Rebecca : 'cause I'm an idiot. Ashleigh : You've been much nicer since you've been dating him. Can you fix it? Rebecca : I don't know how. Ashleigh : It's not brain surgery. Just give him the same thing that we'd want. Thoughtful gifts. Or extravagant ones. Guilty party's choice. Then total acceptance of responsibility, even if it's not your fault. Although, in this case, it sounds like it is. And then follow up with a full groveling apology. CRU – Dale & rusty’s room - Frontdoor Rusty : What are you waiting for? Dale : Just... just back off, okay? Rusty : What's wrong with you? Dale : They're driving me nuts. Rusty : Your parents? Dale : Yeah. They won't leave me alone. I finally put on The passion of the Christ and said I was going to the bathroom. That was like an hour ago. Rusty : So you need time to yourself. There's nothing wrong with that. Dale : Yeah, but that's never happened. I used to never want to get away from my parents. I cherished every moment we had together. Rusty : So now you're finding that that old cherished relationship, it's... a little restrictive. Dale : College has corrupted me. I'm not the boy they sent away. Rusty : That's right. You don't have to be. That's why we came here, right? To find out who we are. To become our own men. And they have no right to make us feel ashamed of that. Dale : Wait. Be quiet. The flaying stopped? No. Never mind. I don't know, Rusty. Rusty : Okay, look. It's time we stop being scared of losing their approval. What, we're not doing anything wrong. Growing up is not a punishable offense. Dale : Yeah. Yeah, you're right. Someone opens the door. Norma : There are you, monkey-buns. Where'd you go? We were starting to get worried about you. Dale : Well, mom, actually, I... I just didn't want to interrupt during the resurrection. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rebecca : Brought you breakfast. Your favorite. Greasy egg sandwich and 44 ounces of sugar and caffeine. Cappie : Dad with a pretty girl. Zeta Beta without the scandal. Rebecca : Yeah. Win-win for all concerned. Cappie : There's no mention of the senator's daughter's poor taste in boyfriends, though. Rebecca : I know I said I'm not that girl anymore, but sometimes he just gets to me. I can't help myself from trying to piss him off. Cappie : That's your apology? Rebecca : It's my excuse. I'm getting to the apology. My father is having an affair. Again. This time it's with that stupid bubble-headed aide. I saw her coming out of his hotel room in a robe. Cappie : Okay, well... If there was an acceptable excuse, which there isn't, that would, you know, be up there. Rebecca : I'm so sorry I used you last night. That's the last thing I would ever want you to feel. I don't wanna push you away... Because... I think that I... You know... Maybe... Very possibly... Care about you. Cappie : Maybe ? Very possibly ? You are smothering me. Rebecca : Hey, it's huge for me. Cappie : Excuse and apology accepted. CRU - café Russel : We're doing what we think is best for him. Casey : But it's not. Look, there's more to college than just school. I know you guys think that fraternities and sororities are some kind of gateway drug to a pointless life. But they're not. Look, Rusty's great. He's not going to end up like planless, unfocused Casey. Don't worry. He's not gonna be like me. Rusty : I can't think of anyone else I'd rather be like. Casey : Rusty, I'm trying to help you. Rusty : I'm trying to help them understand that being like you is something to aspire to. If I were like you, I'd have amazing people skills. I'd be able to solve problems creatively. If I got to be president of my fraternity, I'd basically be learning how to be a CEO of a small corporation. Yeah, all in all, I'd be pretty incredible. And I would expect my parents to be proud of me. And I would stand up for what I want no matter what. Which means for right now, I will be remaing in Kappa Tau while maintaing the high academic standards that happen to be just as important to me as they are to you. And if I have to find a way to pay for it myself, I will. And I wanna see a menu. I wanna see it now. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Senator Logan : The dean is expecting us. Rebecca : I'm sorry. I know how you hate to keep people waiting. I'm particularly sorry because I'm not going with you. I'm afraid I have other plans. Maybe Heather can go. Senator Logan : Young lady. Young lady! This is an important function. I expect you. Cappie : Senator. Rebecca : Bye, daddy. Have fun. CRU - Airport Karen : We've decided to let Rusty stay in the fraternity. Your father's telling him now. You know, halfway through your brother's soliloquy at breakfast, it became very apparent that your stubbornness and independence had rubbed off on him. Casey : Which aren't my worst characteristics. Karen : They're two of your best. And you got 'em from me. Casey : Have you seen my mother? I mean, you have the same "mom" hair, but. Karen : And a tendency toward sarcasm? Not either of our best characteristics. Casey, we're very different people. And I don't know if I'll ever understand your approach to life. Casey : But that doesn't mean... Karen : Let me finish. But that doesn't mean that it doesn't have value. And that it's not gonna lead to some magnificent and purposeful place. Casey : Thank you. Karen : Now you know, I can't promise that I'm still not gonna nag about GREs and ISATs. Casey : That's all right. I guess... I could use a slightly more defined plan of action. Karen : Slightly more defined. Casey... Casey : Mom, mom! You're about to ruin a really nice moment here. Airport : Flight 217 non-stop to Chicago is now boarding. Russel : Okey dokey. Our flight is boarding. Karen : All right. Off we go. Rusty : Bye, mom. Karen : Love you, honey. Rusty : Love you too. Thanks for coming. Karen : Thank you. All right. Russel : All right. Karen : Come on, Russell. Casey : Bye, dad. Russel : Good-bye, sweetheart. Casey : See you soon. Rusty : You and mom looked pretty chummy. Casey : Well, after your throw-down this morning, I kinda sorta became their new favorite. Sorry. And I'm really, really sorry for the ambushing. Rusty : No, I'm actually relieved they know. But... I could have done without them seeing me in drag. Casey : Yeah. I guess this was a pretty good trip. Rusty : Yeah. I'm kinda sorry to see 'em go. Airport : Attention passengers on flight 217 non-stop to Chicago: your flight has been delayed two hours.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x17 - 47 Hours & 11 Minutes"}	foreverdreaming
CRU - Street Frannie : Ready to get your ass kicked? Ready to kick yours actually. Rebecca : Please. You dogs are all bark. Casey : What did you call us? Rebecca : You heard me. Care to make things a little more interesting? Frannie : Like a bet? Rebecca : Are you even allowed to? Isn't gambling a gateway behavior back to bitchery? Casey : Well, you're the expert. So what are your terms? Rebecca : Losers are on laundry duty for a week. Frannie : What an amateur. Losers are on bathroom duty... Fraternity bathroom duty. Casey : Sounds good. Losers clean their winning team's bathrooms. We're on. I forgot how good you are when you're bad. Frannie : Don't be silly. I've sworn off bad, remember? OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Frannie : ZBZ fest is our annual philanthropy event in which every fraternity at CRU competes for the ZBZ fest cup as well as the title of big cat on campus, which was named after our famous ZBZ mascot, PussyWillow the Cat. Aside from bragging rights, all of the money you raise through this week's activities will go to charity. And as your coach, I will be guiding you through each event, which will test your... LAMBDA SIGMA HOUSE - Garden Casey : Talent, endurance, and athleticism. That one should be easy for you guys. As for the events, we have the scratching post pole cross contest, the kitty kennel phone-a-thon the sitting kitty seesaw sit. And the crowning event of ZBZ fest, the Mr. Purr-fect pageant. And you guys know what that means. Pick the brother who looks best in a speedo. Kidding. Shane : Well, thank God. 'Cause I'm a thong man. Casey : Where was I? All right, the Mr. Purr-fect event... KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Rebecca : Will be worth the most points. Are you guys even listening to me? Beaver : That's so cool. My mom taught me. Hey, Rebecca, do you have a rubber band? Rebecca : Cappie, they're not listening to me. Cappie : Guys. Come on. Let's show the lady some respect, please. Rebecca : Is there a problem, Rusty? Rusty : No. Rebecca : Then why did you roll your eyes? Rusty : It's like, the dust. Rebecca : If that's the case, then I suggest you and the pledges need to keep the place cleaner. Now for our first practice, I've scheduled four hours of cardio. Rusty : Actually, I don't think I'm gonna have enough time to compete in the ZBZ fest thing because I'm a polymer science major. That's pretty time consuming. Rebecca : Participation is mandatory for pledges. Cappie : She's right, Spitz. Besides, weren't you just bragging to the guys that you're so far ahead in your classes that you're reading Stephen Hawking for fun? Beaver : That's right. You said that. I remember, 'cause I told Wade you were such a tool. Rusty : I did say that. Cappie : So what's the problem? Rusty : There's no problem. Rebecca : No problem here. Cappie : There's no problem. Credits CRU – Sports field – Rebecca’s Team Cappie : Please, can we... Rebecca : Fine. Do them girl style. But no more drinks-named-after- body-parts nights during training! Cappie : But the fuzzy navels were so... fuzzy. Rebecca : Cappie...Let this sink in take a ht you'll be cleaning up our... Shape up or a total drinking ban. I mean, no wonder no one wanted to coach you guys. And where is everyone else? Cappie : Well, we're not that good at getting places... On time. Rebecca : Well, someone in the house needs to make sure you are. I need an assistant. Someone responsible. Cappie : I know who'd be perfect. Beaver : Who? Cappie : Spitter, of course. He's responsible. Rebecca : Rusty's a polymer science major. Rusty : I'm a... Rebecca : It's a really time consuming major. Rusty : Thank you for consideration, Rebecca. Rebecca : Just trying to help you out. Cappie : Obviously, you don't like each other. Rebecca : Good. We're all on the same page. Not good. I'll pick someone else. Cappie : No. I want you two to like each other. Rebecca : Cap, it's not going to happen. He's Casey's brother. And he's the creepy perv who keeps "accidentally" walking in on me during intimate moments and then judging me. Rusty : She shouldn't be doing such judgment provoking things if she doesn't want to be judged. Rebecca : See, the perfect impasse. Cappie : The perfect opportunity for two of my favorite people to learn to get along. You have a lot in common. You both like green peppers and... wait... Olives on your pizza. I've seen you both trip on the step of that history building. This is a match made in heaven. Rusty & Rebecca : Try hell. Cappie : Look, you both... You both think alike already. I love it. Here. Embrace. Rebecca : Get back to work! Beaver, who told you... CRU – Sports field – Frannie’s Team Frannie : You're all wet. Evan : Listen... we need to talk, right? I mean, about what happened. I was drunk... Frannie : You know me better than that, Evan. Yes, it was a drunken mistake. And we'll never speak of it again. Evan : Good. Great. This may sound hard to believe after everything that's happened, but I'd actually like for us to be friends. And as your friend, I wouldn't let one little kiss jeopardize... anything. CRU – Sports field – Casey’s Team Casey : Nice hustle. Ashleigh : Now I get why you accidentally forgot the downstairs dryer shrinks everything. I love new crushes. New crushes are so fun. Casey : They're also scary. New crushes lead to new dates, which lead to new relationships, which led to new breakups, which... Ashleigh : Oh my God. Just stop overthinking it. Just enjoy the totally hot guy who's totally staring at you right now. Casey : Maybe this is fun. CRU - Street Calvin : I wish you were our coach. I know Frannie's supposedly nice now, but I still catch an underlying whiff of evil every time she walks by. Ashleigh : Well, she called you guys first fair and square. And I am perfectly happy as spirit chair. I am not shout-y enough for coaching. Oh my God ! It's Michael! My french TA. Didn't I tell you about him? He's gay. Well, I think. You guys would be so cute together. Calvin : Why? Because we're the only two gay guys that you know? Ashleigh : No. You got it all wrong. I only think that he's gay. I don't really know. But would a straight guy go to axanadusing-along? Calvin : I wouldn't date a guy that went to axanadusing-along anyway. So I think I'll pass. Ashleigh : Michael! This is Calvin. Remember, I was telling you about him? Calvin's been to France too. Michael just got back from France. Calvin : So, how was France? Michael : It was nice. I went to some lectures. I saw some art. How was it when you went? Calvin : I was nine. I had escargot and then threw up in the elevator of the Eiffel Tower and started crying. Michael : Oh my God. Me too. Ashleigh : You should get coffee, talk more about France. Michael : Well, we are both gay. Ashleigh : So you are gay. I knew it. Michael : So how about it? Calvin : Sure. Why not? KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Beaver : Can't move my arms. I can't lift beer. Rusty : Yes, and does that include the exfoliating... cuticle... Scrub... And paraffin... dip? Yes, I also need... wax. The non-eyebrow kind. Thank you. Bye. This is ridiculous. How my scheduling Rebecca's grooming appointments helps us win ZBZ fest? Wade : I don't know. Wait. What did she say? Rusty : She said she needed to focus entirely on our training schedule. That's it. I'm gonna talk to Cappie. Straighten this out. All : No ! Rusty : Don't you want me to get her off our backs? I'm gonna tell Cappie what a pain she's being. Wade : Dude, are you crazy? You talk about breaking the guy code. Rusty : What's that? Bros before hos? Wade : Bros before hos is... It's just a motto. All right, the guy code is practically written law. Rusty : Is it you have to protect your friends from their evil girlfriends? Wade : It's that you have to accept your bro's girlfriend even if you can't stand her or know she's wrong for him. Guys who are whipped do not tolerate criticism of their girls. Unless the girl in question is putting your bro in mortal danger, you smile and schedule her waxing appointments. Rusty : That's it? Wade : And hope they break up soon. Beaver : Spitter ? Will you pour this beer in my mouth? CRU – Street - Café Evan : Too bad you're not our coach. Casey : Yeah. Evan : You led us to a decisive victory last year. Casey : That's true. How's it looking this year? Evan : Well, I know about the bet. So don't try to get any inside information from me. No, but seriously, though. It would be nice to have you hanging around again. Casey : I figured it was time to try something different. But it is... weird not being around. Evan : So you said you'd like us to try being friends. Well, I got to thinkin', and I don't see why not. You know, 'cause we're over each other, obviously we're not angry at each other any more. Seems like a perfect... Shane : Fancy meeting you here, coach. Casey : I'm so glad I ran into you. I have this really great idea. Hang on. I can't divulge this in front of the enemy. Sorry, you know I can't lose that bet. I'm glad we talked. I'll see you later. Come on, Shane. I can't want to tell you what I came up with. CRU – Sports field – Rebecca’s Team Rebecca : It's hot. Rusty : Do you want me to blow on it until it cools off? Rebecca : I'm saying that I wanted an iced latte. Rusty : You didn't say iced. Rebecca : I think I did. Rusty : You didn't. I have a photographic and highly detailed memory. Rebecca : Well, if you're so smart, why couldn't you figure out that it's too hot out today for a latte? Rusty : Well, if you weren't such a... Rebecca : Yes? Rusty : Dedicated coach, you would have time to worry about lattes. But you don't. So I'm gonna go get you another one. Rebecca : Good. CRU – Sports field Ashleigh : Okay, everyone. This is the final heat of the ZBZ fest scratching post. Once again, whoever makes it across the pole first wins. Your arms and legs must be touching the pole at all times. And as a reminder, lewd pole jokes were maybe funny the first time, mildly amusing the second. But by the sixth, it was just sad. On your marks, get set... Rebecca : Beaver, if you win this, I'll let you make out with me for one minute! Casey : We did it. Frannie : Don't worry. This is just one battle. The wr is ours. Evan : Absolutely. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Rebecca told me to tell you all that she can't even look at you right now. She said something about Beaver too, but I'm not gonna repeat that here. She went to type up a new training schedule. We're all supposed to think about our shame. That was her. I have to go. Cappie : She's taking this a little too seriously, huh? Went a little too far. Guys? Wade : Don't worry about it. Ben Bennett : Yeah, it's cute when she does it. Heath : Yeah. Like like a kitten. Cappie : Seriously? Beaver : What could be better than a hot chick orderin'around a bunch of guys? Heath : Even I think that's hot. Cappie : Well, I guess she is kind of like a... Sexy Bobby knight. Wade : Exactly. Cappie : So we're all cool then? All right, well... Dobler's? CRU – Street - Café Calvin : You are the only other person I know who doesn't like cheese. Michael : Everyone I know thinks it's weird. Calvin : I'm not gonna judge you on your cheese-lessness. Michael : Speaking of judging, did you watch ANTM Last night? Calvin : America's next top model? As in... “I have two beautiful girls standing before me. One of them wants this more than anything in the world, but has no personality. The other one takes beautiful pictures, but is plus-sized.” Michael : Nice Tyra. Calvin : It's been a while. I... haven't watched since I started pledging. Michael : Why not? It's better than ever. Calvin : Really? Omega Chi guy : Owens, nice work on the pole today. Michael : Work on the pole? Calvin : What have I missed? It's just a ZBZ fest thing. You catch Cavaliers game last night? Omega Chi guy : Man, how sweet was that three-pointer? Calvin : Lebron is the man. So, I'll catch you guys back at the house. I'm so sorry. I should've introduced you. Michael : Hey, you're under no obligation. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : So that's how you want it tonight? Rebecca : Stay away from me. Cappie : This usually works a lot better when we're not far from each other. Rebecca : You're in training. You need to save up some stamina. So no sex. Cappie : I'll have you know, I have a surplus of stamina. Okay, I think you're taking this training thing a bit too far. Rebecca : I haven't heard any complaints. They've all been really nice to me. I think they know it's in the spirit of competion. And if they're not complaing, then as their leader, you shouldn't be either. Cappie : True. Rebecca : So I was thinking... We try some role playing. Cappie : Now you're talkin'. Let me get the costumes. What do you think? Business woman or lost german tourist? Rebecca : The kitty kennel event is tomorrow. So how about you practice asking for donations, I'll play reluctant donor on the other end of the line. Cappie : This isn't a 900 number by any chance, is it? Rebecca : Uh. Uh. Cappie : Ok. Great. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Man : Got a delivery. Calvin : Hey, there's a sorority house next door. Man : Calvin Owens? Omega chi 1 : That's sweet... That a dude sent you flowers. Omega chi 2 : That looks like, baby's breath over there. Omega chi 1 : Definitely baby's breath. I wonder why they call it that. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : I haven't seen you this perky since we tried those push-up bras. Casey : Well, it's fun being a coach. Especially coaching a bunch of guys who are totally angst-free and have no desire to discuss the status of our relationship. It's refreshing. We should mix with those guys more. Ashleigh : Guys or guy? 'Cause I think you want a one-on-one mixer with Shane. Casey : I ran into Evan the other day. Ashleigh : Not Evan. Fun, new guy. Fun, new guy! Casey : And seeing Evan only made me realize how much I need a fun, new guy. Ashleigh : Yes. Casey : But I do think Evan and I are actually going to be able to be friends. Ashleigh : So what's Shane's major? Casey : That's the best part. Who knows and who cares? All I know is I'm no longer majoring in Cappie or Evan. CRU – Sports field – Frannie’s Team Evan : Yeah. No, thank you very much, ma'am. That's a very, very generous donation. Okay, I'm done. Frannie : Wow. $300 in 15 minutes? You work fast. Evan : Let me out, please. Frannie : Someone is sensitive. Care to share? Evan : With you? Frannie : Let me guess. It's a Casey issue? Let me guess again. I'm the last person you want to talk to about Casey. I get it. It's okay. Good work today. Evan : Hey, Frannie, I'm sorry. Okay, it's not you. I'm just... Casey wants us to be friends, right? I said I was onboard, but I don't think I am at all. I don't know. I don't know. It feels like it might be too late now. So guess I just gotta accept the fact that we weren't meant to be. Frannie : I don't believe in that. Evan : Believe in... Frannie : Meant to be. Fate. Destiny. All that powerless crap. Evan, fate is for poor people. Otherwise we wouldn't have a state lottery. You're more in control than you think. Or at least you could be. Give yourself a little more credit. Start using what you've got. Because... You've got a lot. CRU – Sports field – Rebecca’s Team Rusty : Hello. My name is Rusty Cartwright. And I am a student at Cyprus-Rhodes University. Today, in association with the Zeta... Hello? They hung up again. Rebecca : Yeah, well, I'd hang up on you too the way you drone on. Rusty : I'm not droning. Rebecca : You're dronin'. Rusty : I'm reading what's on the script. Rebecca : You need to loosen up your delivery. Get off the page. Think outside the box. Relax. Relax. Relax. Relax! Give me your script. Stop staring and make a call. You've been in there for over an hour and have only raised $2! Everyone else is done. Rusty : Hi. Hi, little girl. Is your mommy home? No? You're all by yourself? Because I need a special favor. Rebecca : Hang up. Rusty : Are you crying? Don't cry. No, that's. It's okay. No. Rebecca : Hang up. Hang up! Hang up! God, Rusty, you're trying to get them to donate money, not get in your van! Did Casey ask you to throw this so that I'd lose the bet? You know what? Forget it! Okay. You're done. Rusty : I think I'm gonna stay in here a few more minutes. Rebecca : Why? Do I scare you? Rusty : Okay, Rebecca, I don't think you realize how harshly you come across. Beaver : Spitter, no. Rebecca : And I don't think harshness would be necessary if you could do just one thing right. Rusty : I don't think I need lessons in competence from someone who can't even get a boyfriend without stealing one from my sister. Rebecca : Please give me dating advice, Mr. Jen K. Rusty : Good luck! Cappie : Rusty! Beaver : Hey, Cap. Cappie : Hey, what's going on? Rusty seemed upset. Beaver : Did Cappie : Rebecca do something? Beaver : No. No. It's not Rebecca. Rusty's upset because of... Science. Cappie : Science. Beaver : Yeah. He found out that the guy that invented gravity just died. Isn't that sad? Cappie : Beav, Isaac Newton has been dad for like 300 years. Beaver : Really? Guess Rusty's not as smart as we thought. CRU – Michael’s Office Michael : Office hours are over, but... Calvin : Flowers. Michael : You didn't like the arrangement? Calvin : I didn't like you trying to embarrass me to prove a point. I'm sorry. All right? I should've introduced you to my brothers and I didn't. Michael : Calvin, I send flowers to guys I like sometimes. I'm sorry it bothered your fraternity brothers. Calvin : It didn't. They were perfectly fine with it because they're my friends. Michael : So what's the problem? Calvin : The problem is they're fraternity guys, okay? They're not supposed to be nice about things like that. If I were any other guy, they would have made fun of me. You know, and then they would've made me clean the toilet with my toothbrush like any other self-respecting fraternity guy would. Michael : Well, my bathroom's a mess. You're welcome to it. Actually, my bathroom is pristine and filled with high quality beauty products just like any other self-respecting gay guy's. Is that okay with you? Look, can we both agree that before I sent you flowers, we kind of liked each other? Calvin : Agreed. Michael : In that case, I'm gonna be at the gay and lesbian short film festival tomorrow with some friends. I would love to see you there. KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Cappie : So, Spitter, how many Pi Sigma Thetas does it take to screw in a light bulb? Rusty : I don't know, Cap. How many? Cappie : Silly Spitter, those pretty boys could never screw in a light bulb. Their hands are too slippery from all the hair gel residue. Rusty : What's my line? Just tell me. What is it? I'll get it. Rebecca : Cap, you know you're my Mr. Perfect. Cappie : Thanks, babe. Rebecca : But you don't have a sht in hell of winning the Mr. Purr-fect pageant. Not with Rusty in your routine. I have to take a walk and think about a new approach. I suggest you two practice. No matter how futile it is. Rusty : I can't take this anymore. I have to tell you something. Cappie : Do we need to take this upstairs? Rusty : Right. I know this is gonna be hard for you to hear, but you have to hear it. Cappie : Is it that my girlfriend's driving you crazy? And that she's taking this competition way too seriously and tormenting everyone? Rusty : Exactly. Cappie : And that she's emasculating you beyond belief? Rusty : Yes. Yes! Cappie : Thank God. You guys kept saying that you were fine with her, and I thought I was going crazy. Why didn't you come to me about this sooner? Rusty : Well, it was the...The guy code. Cappie : The g... Good lord. Do you know how many lives have been lost to the guy code? How much manly dignity? That thing needs to be overturned before it's too late. Rusty : Yeah, well, you Wade and Beaver kept telling me. Cappie : Wade and B... Wade spent an entire semester with a very thin mustach thanks to the guy code. And Beaver, Beaver almost became a Canadian citizen. It's a very dangerous, antiquated statute, Spitter. Rusty : Does this mean you're gonna dump Rebecca? Cappie : No. Of course not. It means we're gonna help her. She needs us. Rusty : Us? Cappie : Yes, us. I can't do this alone. Here's what I got in mind. CRU – Sports fields Casey : So how long has it been? Shane : About... four hours and... something. Casey : Wow. That's $100 raised already. Shane : It's a good thing this is for charity. I'd have to charge you for the butt chafing. Casey : I don't have anything in here to help that. But I did bring lots of snacks. And... Because everything's better set to music, right? And some hot cocoa to keep you warm. Shane : I'm suspicious. None of the other guys got treats on their shifts. Are you favoring me inappropriately? Casey : Of course not. Shane : Are you sure? Casey : My favoring you is totally appropriate. Shane : So, what's up with you and Chambers anyway? You guys still broken up, or... Casey : Evan and I are just friends. Shane : That's good to hear. Casey : It's good to hear that you think that's good... To hear. Shane : I guess we'll have to take a rain check. Casey : Yeah. I guess so. Which one? Shane : Yeah. Cocoa. Thanks. Thank you for the snacks. Bye. Casey : Rain check. Shane : Rain check. Bring an umbrella. CRU - Doblers Casey : Hello, everyone. I'm Casey Cartwright, ZBZ President. And this is the Mr. Purr-fect pageant. Our top five qualifying teams will compete in this, the final ZBZ fest event. As you can see from the scores, tonight will decide the winner. I know I'm biased, but I have to say I'm pretty confident in my team's chances. Settle down. Although I do appreciate all your team spirit, let's kick off the night with the interview portion. First up from this lovely collection of gentlemen is Seth Lubinecki, mr. Psi Phi Pi. Please tell me the person who has influenced you the most and why? Mr Psi Phi Pi : I admire Mr. Bill Gates for several reasons. The least of which is his personal net worth. CRU – Doblers - Backstage Calvin : Hey, Ash. Ashleigh : What are you doing here? I thought you had a date with Michael. Calvin : No. It wasn't a date. No. And I decided not to go. Ashleigh : What? I thought you liked him. Calvin : Ash, have you ever been to a gay movie? Ashleigh : Does “The devil wears Prada” count ? Calvin : No. No, I'm talking about an earnest coming of age film where some young kid in Idaho cuts himself while listening to erasure and then comes out to his preacher father who beats him and locks him in a closet. Ashleigh : That's depressing. Calvin : Exactly. I mean, why does everything have to be about being gay when you're gay? I'd rather just go see a hm action movie with the brothers. Ashleigh : Calvin, you like Michael, right? Calvin : I think so. CRU - Doblers Mr Psi Phi Pi : That Mr. Gates is a dedicated member of the boy scouts of America. As am I. Eagle scout with the silver palm. CRU – Doblers - Backstage Ashleigh : You know what, let's go together. It can't be more depressing than this. And I need to find a crowd that appreciates my suede slouchy boots. CRU - Doblers Beaver : That's my boy! Frannie : Go, Evan! CRU – Doblers - Backstage Casey : Knock 'em dad. I know you will. Shane : Thanks. Casey : Hey. Sounded like the crowd really liked you out there. Evan : Thank God. That is a relief. Because, you know, if law school doesn't pan out, I've always had this secret desire to be a swimsuit model. Casey : I knew it. It's so weird that I knew that. Evan : Really? Casey : You did know that. Totally did. Frannie : There he is. Mr. Purr-fect. Don't you think? Casey : You know what I think? I think I've got this one in the bag. Frannie : Come on. Let's go make some magic. CRU - Doblers Evan : Thank you! Thank you very much. And a special thanks to my lovely assistant. She's a rare beauty. Jeff. CRU – Doblers - Backstage Rebecca : I can't believe you forgot to bring timmy the snake. Wrapping him around Rusty's neck was the highlight of the act. Cappie : Don't worry. I've got something special up my sleeve. Rebecca : Well, you better if you ever want me to... Ever again. Cappie : Don't you think that's a bit harsh? Don't worry. Give me a kiss. I'm gonna go make you proud. Rus, come on. Rus? CRU - Doblers Cappie : And now a little something from Shakespeare's lesser known works... Troilus and Cressida. Thought you were small. Okay. Time hath, my Lord, a wallet at his back wherein he puts alms... To oblivion. A great-sized monster of... Ingratitudes? Those scraps are of good deeds past, which are devoured as fast as they are made... A man : You suck! Cappie : Forgotten as soon as done. Perseverance, dear my Lord. Perseverance... Dear my Lord. CRU – Doblers - Backstage Rebecca : What the hell was that? Rusty : Shakespeare. He's one of the greatest authors and writers. Cappie : Could Spitter. Spitter. Rebecca : Seriously? Cappie : Can you please? Thank you. Rebecca : Cappie, I know you did that on purpose. What are you doing? Cappie : I'm saving our relationship. Rebecca : By making me lose a bet to your ex and scrub hepatis-ridden toilets? Cappie : Yes. Exactly. Rebecca : Have you lost your mind? Cappie : No. You did. I don't know if it was competing with Casey or what, but something made you crazy this week with me, with Rusty, with all the brothers who are my friends. And guy code version 2.0 requires me to respect my friends when I'm in a relationship. You lost it. And for what? Bragging rights over who looks better in a swimsuit? Since when did you care about collegiate amateur pageantry? You're Rebecca freakin'Logan! Rebecca : Oh my God. Cappie : Please don't ht me. CRU – Street Ashleigh : Yeah. Look at him. He's so cute. And he has amazing eyes. Calvin : I guess I just wish this particular gay guy were a little less... gay. Ashleigh : Why? Because you're worried about what other people might think? Like your brothers? From what you said, the only thing they're guilty of is being nice when you got some flowers. Calvin : So I guess the only problem here is me. Ashleigh : Breakthrough. Calvin : And I should just... Just get out of my own way. Ashleigh : Yes. And? Calvin : And... and... I should go watch some earnest vignettes with a guy with amazing eyes. Ashleigh : It's a start. CRU – Doblers Casey : And now the results verified by the accounting firm of Zeta Beta Zeta's own accounting major, Ivy. The winner is... Shane! Which means the Lambda Sigs are the winners of ZBZ fest. CRU – Doblers - Backstage Shane : Man. I couldn't have done it without you. Casey : Please, I think your fre juggling sealed the deal. Shane : And you were my muse. Casey : Are you saying I'm inflammatory? Shane : I'm saying I'd like to take you out for a celebratory drink. You know, elsewhere. Casey : I accept. Let me go gloat for a minute and I'll see you outside. Shane : Okay. Casey : Okay. Hey, Frannie. Evan : 'Scuse me. Hey. Congratulations, man. Best man won. Shane : Yeah. Too bad there's no prize money. See ya. Evan : Shane. Hey, Shane. Shane : Yeah. Evan : Were you serious about the prize money? Shane : Why? Evan : I'll pay you $500 to stay away from Casey. Shane : Whatever, dude. I'll see you around. Evan : I'm serious. Shane : You mean, like a buy-off? Evan : You can call it what you want. Shane : How about you get out of my face? Evan : How about $1,000? CRU – Street Casey : Hey! Finally. I was getting worried. Shane : Yeah. You know what... I don't think I'm up for it tonight. Casey : All right. Another rain check? A man : Hey, good job, Shane. Shane : I don't think so. See ya around, coach. Hold up, guys. KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Cappie : So it's unanimous. The guy code has officially been overturned. First order of business in the post guy code era... Ferret, your girlfriend is clearly a prosttute. Second order of business in the post guy code era... Rebecca : Hi, guys. I'm sorry I tormented you. Despite the fact you lost, I should've been nice to you. I hope these make up for it. I'm sorry for being mean to you. And for making you run all my errands. And for calling you the first ment*lly challenged engineering major. Rusty : Polymer science. Rebecca : Hence the apology. Cappie : Look. She... she even got you your own... Your own pizza with your favorite toppings on it. Peppers and olives. Rusty : Okay. Okay. All right, I guess I can... Leave the past week of verbal abuse behind me. And we can be... Acquaintances who tolerate each other. Rebecca : Acquaintances who tolerate each other. Rusty : Actually, I like green peppers. Rebecca : Well, excuse me. Cappie : Okay, so Rebecca. I'll call you later. Rebecca : I'm just trying to help out. Cappie : Everybody say good-bye to Rebecca. All : Bye Rebecca !! ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Frannie : What are you doing here? Evan : Let's just say I listened to your advice. Decided to take a little control of my life. Frannie : Good for you. Evan : God. I can't believe you're actually gonna clean the Lambda Sigs'bathroom. Frannie : Well, I, you know, I lost fair and square. It's time for me to pay up. Evan : Really? Frannie : Of course not. Evan : Okay. Frannie : Fraternity bathroom? Are you freaking kidding me? Rebecca and I hired a maid service and had them sent right over. This is just all so it looks good for Casey. I don't leave anything to chance either. Don't rat me out, okay? No. I'm off to the spa to get a massage. Tootles. Evan : Bye. Casey : Hey. Evan : Hey. So I was in the neighborhood. Considering I live in the neighborhood. And... I just wanted to see if you could maybe use a study break. You know, totally casual. Two friends... Having coffee. Casey : That's so funny, I was just thinking I need some coffee. Evan : I know you well. Casey : You do. Evan : Well.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x18 - Mister Purr-Fect"}	foreverdreaming
ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Casey : Fluff up your pom-poms, ladies. This weekend our very own Titans are taking on the A&M Farmhands in the Basketball Conference Championship! There'll be tons going on this week. Starting tomorrow night with the Spirit Social at Dobler's and ending with the game on Saturday. Everyone, bring your Titan spirit! Laura : Actually, a few slacking sisters didn't make study hours this week so they unfortunately can't attend the Spirit Social tomorrow night. The following pledges : Mandi, Brenda and Rebecca. Casey : Who will be missing two of ZBZ's great traditions: supporting our basketball team and flirting with our basketball players. Mandy : This is so not fair. Laura : And it wouldn't be fair if you enjoyed the same privileges as girls who've pulled twice their weight. Casey : Speaking of twice their weight. Rebecca : Sorry, totally lost track of time. I was at Kappa Tau. Casey : Where you've been every time there were study hours this week. Rebecca : I have a 3.0. What, I have to be a Rhodes scholar now, too? Casey : We'll be thinking of you when we're brushing up against our very hot, very agile basketball team. And the rest of you, I'll see at Dobler's. Laura : Hold on, sorry. One more. An active. Ashleigh missed study hours this week, too. Casey : Ash ? KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Wade : Bedposts. Cappie : Toughest roll in bowling. Spitter, come here. All right, you're gonna want to ht the seven pin at an angle, and launch it into the ten pin, right? Rusty : Can I have an ibuprofen first? Cappie : No pain, no ten bucks from Wade. Now, strap in. We are green for go. Cappie : Come on! Keep going. Come on! Who told you? Ten bucks. Hold up. What was that? Was that the phone? Beaver : It's the call! Cappie : Nope, not the call. Constable. What seems to be the trouble? Cop : You guys are over the designated Greek noise limit. Cappie : Noise limit? Cop : Yeah. I was just walking the Row when this little guy ht 82 D's right outside your house. I haven't seen readings like that since the Hannah Montana concert. And I don't apologize for being a fan. Cappie : It's... It's the middle of the day! Yeah. Cop : You boys stay out of treble. Cappie : Treble. Good one. Yeah, shutting the door now. Cop : I just said treble instead of trouble. Cappie : Yeah. Because there's a B in it! My God, these restrictions! What's next? We'll have to stop throwing pledges off the roof? Wade : Spitter, get it! Rusty : By the glory of God and the ingenuity of Alexander Graham Bell, you have reached the CRU chapter of the Kappa Tau Fraternity. This is Pledge Cartwright... Cappie : Spitter! Rusty : Pledge Spitter speaking. To which brother may I direct your... Wade : No, just ask who it is! Rusty : Who's calling? Wade : We haven't won in 25 years. Rusty : Then we're due. Cappie : Was it the ticket office? Rusty : Yeah. We won some kind of lottery. Cappie : Not just "some kind" of lottery, Spitter, but the best seats to the Conference Basketball Finals, where we will paint our faces, scream like idiots, and embarrass ourselves and our hallowed alma mater on national TV. Courtside! All : Yeah! Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Casey : How could you skip Study Hours during Spirit Week? Ashleigh : Spirit Week doesn't just happen, Case. It requires planning. Which means, as Social Chair, I have to sit in meetings with other Social Chairs to discuss fresh, fun places for Spirit Night. Because I missed study hours to do it, my reward is an evening sharing Cheesaritos and textbooks with a bunch of pledges while the rest of you party all night. Casey : Wait. I'll be all alone. What if that Lambda Sig ass-clown Shane's at the Spirit Social tomorrow night? Who's going to sh*t dirty looks at him for me? Ashleigh : I would've. My grades are great. Why do I have to do stupid study hours? Casey : Rules suck. In the house, out of the house... Remember when we didn't have restrictions? Ashleigh : When we didn't have party patrol stamping our hand that we're 21? I know I'm 21. Casey : Or keg limits. Or curfews. Ashleigh : I hate curfews! I miss boys raiding our fridge after parties. You think they miss our Hot Pockets? Casey : I think I'm over all rules. Everywhere, ever. You know what? Screw it. You've done our house a huge service, Ashleigh Howard, so I'm granting you a presidential pardon on this week's study hours. Ashleigh : Can you do that? Casey : Well, I'm doing it now. Ashleigh : I knew our friendship would pay off big time some day. Yeah! CRU - Street Tina : Hey, frat boy. Rusty : Tina. You OK walking with the enemy? Tina : Thanks to all my time around Dale, I'm learning to separate the sinner from the sin. Rusty : You can't be spending that much time with him. I haven't seen you in weeks. Tina : Did you miss me? Rusty : Maybe. So, you probably hate basketball and think it's this gender-biased boys'club... Tina : I love basketball! I actually play a pretty mean point guard. Very aggressive. Rusty : I'd expect nothing less. Dale : Hey, Rusty. Hey, U-SAG flier? Greeks are weak. Fight the power, brother. Girl : Hey, they're gonna trash the leftover pizza at the World Hunger Club if anyone would like some! Sanjay : Pizza. I'm done for the day. Dale : Sanjay... Carol... You guys are faithless! Rusty : Looks like anti-Greek sentiment has fizzled. Dale : We just need a new approach. Hey, sir. Man : Dale. Dale : Could I interest you in a free stress test? Man : Sure. Tina : So, why were you asking me about basketball? Rusty : The Conference Finals are Saturday. I was thinking maybe you'd want to go with me. Dale : Where are you going? Tina : I'd love to. Rusty : Great. They're courtside seats. We can paint our faces or something. Dale : How'd you get courtside? Tickets aren't on sale yet. Rusty : It's this lottery thing, for all the houses. Tina : You mean, only the Greeks were eligible? Rusty : No, I mean, we can bring guests. So... Hey, what if we paint a "G" on my chest and an "O" on yours? Dale : Rusty, you might want to rethink that. Tina : Wait, why should your frats be rewarded for exclusivity? Rusty : OK, because Greeks have always been the biggest supporters. And if you think about it, without our houses, U- SAG probably wouldn't exist. Tina : So, we should thank polluters for spawning environmental groups? Dale : Point, Tina. Rusty : Which maybe I should contact since you decimated half a rainforest printing these fliers. Dale : Nice volley Rus. Tina : The frats won't print rush propaganda next year? Interesting. Dale : This is like Wimbledon. Rusty : Oh, my God. Dale : He's a divine messenger. Tina : Cool. Cappie : Titans, halt. Hey, we're here for our Conference Championship tickets. You might have heard that, Kappa Tau is the winning house. Man : Kappa Tau... You egged the Central State team bus last year, right? Cappie : If we can expedite this, we're late for Dobler's. Man : Sure. Uh-oh! Cappie : What "uh-oh?" What's wrong? Man : There's a problem with the tickets. Cappie : No, no, there should be no... Can you check again? This is kind of the most important thing that's ever happened to us. So... Man : I'm trying. It won't let me release them. Cappie : Well... Beaver : Give us the tickets! Cappie : Beaver. Beaver, calm down. Calm down I'll take care. I'll take care of this. I am so sorry. Can you please just... CRU - DOBLERS Evan : Nice hat. Cappie : I demand satisfaction. Evan : Satisfaction? Ashleigh : Where are you going? Casey : It's Evan and Cappie. Ashleigh : You're not dating either of them. Maybe one of them will throw a punch. Cappie : I want our tickets! Casey : Hey, guys. What's up? Evan : Some, student group complained about Greeks being the only students in the ticket lottery so. After talks with the dean and consulting with the other houses... Cappie : Skip to the part where we get our tickets. Evan : Since we're still working to have the administration lighten up on us, we decided that making an issue of the tickets now could result in jeopardizing the bigger picture. Casey : Which means we could lose the battle and the wr. Evan : Yeah. Our main focus has to be on ending the restrictions. And, as administration liaison, I have the dean's ear. Cappie : His rear? Evan : And what he wants is for us to toe the line. Now it's about playing by the rules. Cappie : We have! There's been no brawling, no hazing, no drunken peeing in the Olympic pool... Casey : I heard... Cappie : We weren't drunk. Casey :Look, Cap, we play ball now, down the road we'll be in the position to take back the reins. And the tickets. Cappie : I don't want to play ball, I want to watch it, courtside! This weekend. Evan : We're not sticking our necks out, and antagonizing the dean and the Board of Administrators just to free up your tickets. Besides, from what I've heard, the Kappa Taus have all the tickets they can handle. Casey : Evan. Cappie : Because the Kappa Taus still remember what it's like to have fun. You know fun, Evs? F-U... Evan : "N"? Cappie : Nope. That's it. ZBZ HOUSE – Hallway Casey : I learned so much from that center from Australia. Seven feet is so the new six-one. Ashleigh : I know, right? Who knew it could be so hot talking straight into a guy's pecs? Rebecca : Did I miss something? Are study hours no longer required? Casey : We're talking, Becks. Who had the biggest hands? Number 22 or 46? Rebecca : No, seriously. Why did Ashleigh get to go tonight while the rest of us sat around and pretended to study? Casey : As ZBZ President, I pardoned her. Ashleigh missed study hours planning the social events. Not hanging out at Kappa Tau. Rebecca : With your ex-boyfriend? Casey : Which is totally irrelevant. Rebecca : Right. What about the fact that she's your best friend? Is that irrelevant? No one asked any of the pledges if we had good excuses for not going. What are the rules on a president showing favoritism to her best friend? Mandy : She's so awesome. Brenda : I know. Right? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Hey, did you have anything to do with the dean freezing our basketball tickets? Dale : No, that was more Tina's idea. It's pretty great? Rusty : Yeah, real great, Dale. Dale : Rusty, U-SAG needed an issue to rally people and now we have one. We've got 90 signatures for a resolution to abolish the Greek ticket lottery altogether. We'll present it at the Board of Administrators meeting. Tina's out right now getting more signatures. Rusty : Why can't you two just stop your asault on the Greeks? Dale : Rusty, from Dionysus to your present-day acolytes, the Greeks have embraced nothing but sacrilege and lust. I can't stand by. Rusty : These aren't real names. Dale : What do you mean? Rusty : Look. Colonel Mustard? Butts McGee? Dale : All right, this one's real. Haywood Jablome. Rusty : That's not how you pronounce that. I mean. Think about it. Dale : All right, well, well, there's some jokers on here, but most of these are fine. Can you believe it? U- SAG's been reborn. Resurrections rock. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Rebecca : It's Watergate all over again. Mandy : I know. I still can't believe she pardoned her and we couldn't go. It's so stupid. Rebecca : Madam President. Casey : This is ridiculous. I'm just going to apologize. Ashleigh : Good idea. Frannie : I wouldn't if I were you. Casey : OK, everybody, it's time to clear the air. I admit it, I made a mistake. So there's only one thing I can do. Rebecca : Resign? Casey : Apologize. In my mind I was making a small exception for Ashleigh because of the work she was doing for the house, and I realize now it might seem unfair to not give the same treatment to everyone else. So for this week, I'm fully pardoning the rest of the pledges. I stepped over the line, and abused my position as president and I was wrong. I screwed up. And I'm sorry. Frannie : Accepted, Case. No biggie. Ashleigh : Works for me. Casey : Thanks, everyone. CRU - Street Cappie : Why would you discuss the exclusively-Greek ticket lottery with the head of a group that hates Greeks? Rusty : I was actually talking about it to a girl. I was trying to impress her. She's part of U-SAG, too. She's infuriating, but she's really kinda cute. Cappie : Just like you, Spitter. Has it occurred to you that all the girls you like hate the Greeks? You should really talk to someone about that. But not your roommate. Listen, Spitter, don't sweat it, OK We'll just make a virtue of this self-destructive vice of yours. Follow your heart. Stay close to Ms. U-SAG. See what their next move is. Rusty : Be a spy. Like Jason Bourne. Cappie : Or like the monkey in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Rusty : What're you gonna do? Cappie : I'm gonna handle the other part of the equation. All right, now run along, little monkey. Dean Bowman. Nice goat. Very distinguished. Dean Bowman : It's a Van dke. Cappie : How racy of you to say so, sir. Dean Bowman : Make it quick, Mr. Cappie, I'm busy. Cappie : OK, all right. OK, hypothetically, let's say a bully comes along and steals a boy's lunch, and now that boy is real hungry. Dean Bowman : Tragic. The bully shouldn't be stealing lunches. Cappie : You agree that the lunch be returned to the rightful owner. Dean Bowman : Absolutely. Unless the rightful owner only had the lunch in the first place because he had exclusive rights to the sandwich shop. Cappie : No said anything about a sandwich shop. Maybe he made the sandwich at home. Dean Bowman : Maybe But that wouldn't fit the metaphor. Cappie : Are we speaking metaphorically? OK, OK. We'd like our tickets back. And now I'm kind of hungry. I wouldn't mind some lunch. Dean Bowman : The fate of the tickets is in the hands of the Board of Administrators. Personally, I believe the lottery should be rescinded permanently. The Greek system doesn't deserve special treatment, especially after last semester's incidents. This is all part of the new rules. Cappie : Which are overkill! Dean Bowman : Overkill or not, they're the rules. And we all have to live by them. Otherwise, there'd be chaos. Cappie : Chaos? Tina : No winning tickets with a Greek-only lottery. Thank you. Rusty : Hey, Tina. What a coincidence. What are you doing here? I had no idea you'd be out here. What are you up to? Tina : Getting signatures to bolster our position at the Board meeting. What are you up to? Rusty : What makes you think I'm up to anything? Tina : Because you're acting all nicey-nice. You still want to go to the basketball game together? Rusty : Well, that's kind of tricky, since I no longer have any tickets. And you know that, because you're the reason that I and... and my brothers, we don't have any. Tina : Well, you can still get some. Just wait in line like everybody else. Rusty : I don't care that much about going to the game. Tina : Then why did you ask me to go with you? You're really not making much sense, Rusty. Rusty : Oh, my God! ZBZ HOUSE - Bathroom Casey : Excited about the game, Mandi? You going? Mandi : I don't know. Casey : Well, you're totally free and clear to go and have fun. Rebecca : Thanks, Big Sis. How presidential of you. Brenda : Can I skip study hours next week, Casey? I need to help plan our philanthropy project. Rebecca : That sounds like a good excuse to me. Casey : I screwed up. I said so. There will be no more exceptions. Two wrongs don't make a right. Mandi : But wait. My boyfriend is gonna be in town for a few days. I want to spend as much time with him as possible. Brenda : Is boyfriend time a pardonable offense? Mandi : He's pre-med. We could practice CPR during study hours then I could teach it to the house. Rebecca : Excellent! Casey : OK, you guys, can't we just let this go? Mandi : Yeah, sure. I mean, it's not like my love life is more important than giving your BFF the opportunity to ogle hot jocks at Dobler's. Casey : Thanks a lot. Rebecca : Pardon me? You were saying? CRU - Street Dean Bowman : Thanks. Good night. Thank you. Have a good evening. Jeez. Wade : You are way above the Greek noise limit! Dean Bowman : Hysterical. Now get out of here. Cappie : Before we do sir, if you wouldn't mind blwing into this before you drive your lovely date home. Dean Bowman : I will not. What is this? Cappie : That? That's a 500-dollar ticket. Dean Bowman : In crayon? Beaver : I noticed you had a keg in there. According to campus regulations you were supposed to check Ids and pass out wristbands. Dean Bowman : Everyone was over 50. Beaver : How'd you know if you didn't card 'em? Dean Bowman : We all need to live by the rules. Cappie : Your exact words, if I'm not mistaken. Wade : Exact words. Dean Bowman : Excuse me, Sloan. And your solution to rules you don't like would be...? Cappie : Change them? Dean Bowman : You really willing to do what it takes to change the rules? Cappie : OK, but no kissing. It's too personal. Dean Bowman : If you want your tickets back, come to the Board of Administrators meeting tomorrow afternoon. Present your case. Cappie : Great, we'll talk some b-ball. Get our tickets back before the game. Dean Bowman : We're not just talking about the ticket lottery. Cappie : We're not? Dean Bowman : No. I plan to recommend that all the restrictions be made permanent. You argue the Greek position. If you can convince the board, you win, the tickets are yours and the Greeks will get all their privileges back. Cappie : And, if I don't convince them? Dean Bowman : You lose it all. For good. Good night. Cappie : Good night. Beaver : 'Night. Wade : Drive safely. Dean Bowman : Thanks. KAPPA TAU HOUSE – Living room Evan : Well, nice work, man. You made this a huge deal when it didn't need to be. Cappie : Must use last bmb wisely. Evan : Are you listening? Now the fate of the entire Greek system is in the hands of a flaky, alcoholic degenerate. Cappie : I am not an alcoholic. I'm Skulltar, intergalactic hero. Evan : Look, I typed these up for you, Cappie. They're talking points for today. Consider them damage control and a gift. Cappie : Do not need them. I've got a gravity blaster with an entropy shield. I should be fine. Evan : Point n°1: "Greeks provide housing that the school will have to make up for should restrictions drive students from rush." Cappie : Point two: "The Chrilon Nebula is the source of all planetary grief." Hey! All right. I think I'll be just fine without your talking points. Go paddle up your back channel, Evan-escence. Leave the up-front stuff to me. Evan : You're playing Fight Night, Skulltar. Cappie : I am? CRU - DOBLERS Evan : I don't even get a "hello" anymore? I'm gonna really have to rethink this whole friendship thing, Case. Casey : I didn't even see you there. I guess I'm a little distracted. Evan : Go ahead, sit down. I could use a break. Casey : Sorry, I... Force of habit. Evan : It's OK. It's not mine. Casey : So, what are you doing? Evan : Background check on the professors on the Board of Administrators. Seeing if there's any strings I can pull. I might have to do some influence peddling. Casey : You really think Cappie's going to tnk this thing? Well, the Zbzs will be in the front row to show our support. Evan : Yeah, no offense, but I think the Zbzs should probably lay low on this one. Just 'cause we don't want to remind the board where all the restrictions started. Casey : Right. Rules suck. Evan : Yeah. Casey : I think we should make a rule against rules. Evan : You would have my vote. Casey : I could use it. I sort made this presidential decision that the girls aren't too keen on. Rebecca called me out and the reaction has been crazy. I apologized, but no one's buying it. Evan : What'd Frannie say? Casey : You're not serious. Evan : I know Frannie's made some pretty big mistakes, but she and I talked a bit during the ZBZ days. She actually gave me some really good advice. People can surprise you. CRU – Dale & Rusty ‘s room Rusty : Hey. Tina : Hey, yourself. Dale : Behold, Rusty. The U-SAG heart beats strong. Hey, Sanjay, give me my phone sheet. I'm gonna roll some calls. Sanjay : U- SAG, Greeks are weak. Tina : I'll get the phone sheet. Dale : Yeah, thank you. Rusty : Dale, this is our room, not yours. Dale : I'm trying to calculate how much funds we have for a media buy. Tina : Sorry. Rusty : Dale, why are you doing this to me? Dale : More boldface. Go crazy with the boldface. To you? Rusty, this is for you, OK? The way I see it, I'm saving your peeps from eternal damnation. I'm your own personal "Get Out of Hell Free" card. Rusty : Why are you wearing a suit? Dale : It's for my speech. Rusty : Your speech? Tina : We got 300 signatures. Dale : I am the vessel through which those voices must be heard. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : Frannie, can I talk to you? Frannie : Of course. What's up? Casey : I was hoping I could get some advice about the house. Frannie : Absolutely. Anything I can do. Casey : It's about the whole study hours debacle. Frannie : Some of the girls are starting to dismiss you? Disregard you? Casey : Yep. Frannie : Case, there's a reason why bees have a queen. Otherwise, it's just a big hive mentality. The girls are starting to question your authority and you need to stop the swarm before they revolt. Casey : You're saying I've lost control? Frannie : You will if you keep trying to win them over with honey. You're the president, poodle. You're not one of them anymore. Casey : But how do I turn this back around? I said I was sorry publicly. Frannie : Did President Ford apologize for pardoning Nixon? Casey : No. Frannie : Do you think you were wrong to pardon Ashleigh? Casey : Not completely. Frannie : Then stop apologizing. They want their pound of flesh. Hell, they'll take every pound you give them. But they don't need it. One pound is all they get. Set up a forum, let them vent, and then shut them down. Casey : Vent, shut down. Frannie : You can't show people where they need to go if you don't step out in front. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rebecca : Admit it. A little humble pie now and then is good for Princess Cartwright. Cappie : You know my stance on Ex and Becks fighting. Rebecca : I know, you're Switzerland. That's a big no on the headdress, Pocahontas. Cappie : Come on. I'll score points with the anthropology professor. Spitter, what do you think? Native American headdress or Scottish kilt? Maybe both. Rusty : Forget the costumes, Cappie. You need to focus on your speech. Because U-SAG is gaining some serious traction and Dale's gonna be speaking for them against you at the meeting today. Cappie : Well, I'll just have to go naked, then. Rebecca : Welcome to 40 minutes ago. Rusty : This isn't a joke, Cap. Dale's got a secret wapon. Cappie : You've never seen me naked. Rusty : It's this girl, Tina. She is relentless, man. She's constantly disagreeing, taking the opposite position, saying these really annoying things in this gratingly reasonable tone with this chestnut brown hair and this all-innocent smile and these amazingly intens eyes that just lock onto you like she's trying to bend a spoon, and she wears this hypnotic perfume... Rebecca : Oh, my God, just have sex with her already. I'm about to puke. Rusty : Sex with her? I'm gonna kll her! Rebecca : It's perfectly reasonable to be attracted to someone you can't stand. Cappie : Rugh? Rebecca : Not you, sweetie. Cappie : What my little siren is saying, Rus, is the only way you're gonna get Tina off your mind, is if you... do something about it. Rusty : Like what? Cappie : Well, a date is a good place to start. Why don't you go buy her a malt? Rebecca : He's really hopeless. Just like his sister. Cappie : I'm Switzerland. What do you think of this? Rebecca : That's not mine. Cappie : I know, it's mine. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : I gathered everyone who may still have issues about the... study hours situation, so that each of you may have a chance to air your grievances. Mandy : And the cat is here why? Casey : Let's call this "a kitty passing." This is your chance to speak with impunity. Frannie : Like the conch in Lord of the Flies. Casey : Whoever holds Pussywillow the Cat speaks. Everyone else listens. Say your piece, then pass her to the next girl. Laura, we'll start with you. Laura : Thanks. I think that what you did, Casey, was awful. You undermined my office of Scholarship Chair, and you infected this house with a cancer from which it may never be cured. Proud to be a Zeta Beta. Ashleigh : Well, I think Laura here should get a boyfriend or a hobby. Unless looking for a boyfriend is her hobby. Laura : Bite me! Ashleigh : I've got the conch! Casey : Everyone, sit down now! Ashleigh : Because you trashed Casey. ZBZ Girl : Because Casey messed up. Ashleigh : Wait your turn. Laura : I spoke with impunity. Ashleigh : I spoke with impunity, too! Casey : It's OK. Ashleigh : Shut up! Sorry, Casey. ZBZ Girl : This is so lame. Mandy : Yeah, I guess only actives get to shout. Casey : What's that smell? Ashleigh : Pussywillow! Laura : You had Pussywillow last. Your fault. Ashleigh : My fault? Laura : Yeah! Ashleigh : That should be minus hours. Casey : Girls! Everyone has had their say. Rebecca : Well, I didn't. Casey : That wasn't a question. We're moving on. You can start by putting these chairs away. Study hours are still mandatory. For everyone. Check the letters on the front of the house. This is Zeta Beta Zeta, the best house on campus. Don't act like anything less ever again. CRU – Tina’s room Tina : Rusty, hi. What are you doing here? Rusty : I brought you a malt. Tina : Look, Rusty, if you're here to get a preview of Dale's speech... Rusty : I'm not. Tina : Then why are you here? Rusty : To bring you a malt. Tina : I don't think so. Rusty : Why do you think I'm here? Tina : You tell me. Rusty : No, because whatever I say, you'll disagree with it. Tina : Is that a problem? Rusty : Should it be? Tina : Are you as turned on right now as I am? Rusty : You smell good. Are you sure? Tina : Shut up. Rusty : I'm OK... EXT. CRU Strickers : This is why we must picket. Lose the Greeks and their tickets! Greeks deserve to have some fun. Babes and courtside, number one! Greeks deserve to have some fun. Babes and courtside, number one! This is why we must picket. Lose the Greeks and their tickets! Beaver : Donna Martin graduates! Donna Martin graduates! Donna Martin graduates! CRU - Meeting Dale : So, what do you do when a system, a society, doesn't work? Do you just allow it to consume itself, to take down those around it? No. You fix it, but not by turning the job over to the very same men and women who destroy it in the first place. Dean Bowman : Thank you, Mr. Kettlewell. Your remarks were insightful and... Dale : It makes me wonder what God would've done in a similar situation. Like, I don't know, Sodom and Gomorrah? Dean Bowman : Our next speaker is Mr. Cappie. Dale : Then the Lord rained down fre and brimstone, turning their cities to ashes and condemning them to destruction." I'm just paraphrasing Genesis. Dean Bowman : Mr. Cappie, are you ready? Dale : That's right, the big G flew in, cleaned house and took names. You know what, if he can smite a sodomite every now and then, why can't we do the same? Why can't we make our world a better place by getting rid of them? Sodom and Gomorrah, fraternities and sorities, Greeks and goblins, Cheech & Chong, these are the same hippie lettuce smoking enemies of righteousness that we shoul ship right back to old Scratch himself! Return to sender! Yeah! Hey, I was great. I was great. Dean Bowman : Mr. Cappie? Two minutes. Cappie : Strangely, I agree with the crazy person here. We Greeks can often be irresponsible and reckless. But I don't regret anything I've done and neither should anybody here, because screwing up is what college is all about. Learning from your mistakes and all that. Yet, if you deny us our chances to fail now, it's gonna be a lot harder for us to play catch-up in the future. Honestly, what's worse, hooking up with Dean Bowman's secretary now or fooling around with your boss'wife later on? Let's take you, for example. You look like you might have been interesting a long time ago. Man : You'd know, if you hadn't dropped my class. Cappie : But even if I stuck around, wouldn't you agree, no matter how great your class, it would still be a very, very small part of the college experience? Man : Yes, maybe, but... Dean Bowman : Time! We will consider your presentation, Mr. Cappie. Cappie : Dean Bowman, I'm not finished yet. Sorry. Dean Bowman : The rules. Evan : Dean Bowman, as Greek liaison I'd like to be allowed two minutes to speak? Dean Bowman : Fine, Mr. Chambers. Evan : I was gonna talk about housing, philanthropies, student funds, but, I'm realizing that had Cappie been allowed to exten his rare moment of lucidity, you would have realized that he was right. Professor Hebert, in school you founded Student Anarchists Disunited. If the government was looking over your shoulder, you'd be the first to chain yourself to a building. Man : Because S.A.D. stood for something! Evan : Like loyalty. Man : Yeah! Evan : Friendship, brotherhood. Professor Adams, you went Psi Phi at CRU and became a campus legend whe you put A&M's cow in the bell tower. That's an interesting way to start a career as a world-renowned zoologist. And let's not forget another significant figure in this room, who back in the day... Well, let's just say he majored in psychoactive horticulture? He was evicted from three dorms in a semester. If anyone need 24/7 restrictions, it would be this guy. What if he wasn't allowed to make those mistakes, and there was quite a few. Would he have spent his entire life overseeing the well-being young people? I mean, would you... Dean Bowman? Dean Bowman : I think we've heard enough. Meeting adjourned. CRU - DOBLERS TV : ... heading to the North, where we're two hours away from the A&M Farmhands meeting up with the CRU Titans. This game has huge playoff implications. Evan : Everybody, listen up. The restrictions have been lifted! Casey : Congratulations. Somebody's riding high. Evan : Not high enough, though. I may have saved the Greek system, but unfortunately that includes the Kts. Casey : It's a small price to pay. I mean, you're a hero. And a great advisor. Thanks to your recommendation, I consulted Frannie, and she was instrumental in helping me regain trust, authority, and control at the house. Evan : Great. Frannie : You suggested I talk to Casey? Evan : Yes, I did. Frannie : Well, thank you. Here's to everything working out for the best. Man : A toast for getting those restrictions off our backs. To Evan Chambers! Wade : To Cappie! No restrictions and awesome basketball tickets! Cappie : Courtside seats, baby. Spitter, you had sex! Rusty : How do you do that? Cappie : Well, it's a gift and a curse. Rusty : It's weird to like and not like someone at the same time. Cappie : Yeah, tell me about it. Mandy : It's gonna be long time I still don't like her. Rebecca : Thank you. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Hey. How you doing, Dale? Dale : In the wake of today's landmark decision? I've disbanded U-SAG. Rusty : I'm sorry and I'm not sorry, if you know what I mean. Dale : Yeah, it's all right. I mean, but it wasn't really working, anyway. Hey, you hear that? Rusty : It's your speech. Dale : Yeah. Somebody must've put it on the Internet. Internet : ... both the enemies of righteousness It sounds like Dale : They're really responding to it next door. Rusty : Sure, Dale. Dale : So, you must be thrilled. A big victory for the Greeks, you don't have to deal with Tina anymore. Kettlewell. Hey, Tina. You missing the cause already or... What? Yeah, hold on. She wants to talk to you. Are you guys friends or something now? Rusty : Not exactly. KT HOUSE - Party Cappie : What a game. Hey, Beaver, rember when you dropped your pants at halftime? Beaver : That was you. Wade : Hey, what's harder to believe? That we lost? Or that Bowman used to smoke the hippie lettuce? Beaver : Although, I thought his eyes seemed red once. Cappie : That's only one more reason he deserves our respect. He was a formidable opponent. Everyone, can I have your attention, please? This to Dean Bowman, this one is for you. Beaver : I got it. Cappie : Wait... Beaver... Beaver, don't...! Beaver : Something's on f*re.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x19 - No Campus for Old Rules"}	foreverdreaming
CRU – Tina’s room Rusty : How about a movie? Tina : We could watch a movie here. Rusty : You don't have a TV. Tina : Right. Rusty : We can go to dinner? Tina : I had a late lunch. Rusty : Let's take a walk? Tina : I'm trying to cut back. You know, Emma won't be back for a couple of hours. We don't have to go anywhere. Rusty : It's not about have to. I thought you might want... Tina : Nope. CRU - Street Beaver : We got enough for some bread, peanut butter, maybe a couple bags of Cheesaritos, and three cases of Sandusky. Cappie : That's all? We should raise our dues. Beaver : There might be change under the TV room couch but Gonzo and his girlfriend slept there... Cappie : Say no more. We'll leave it for future generations. Rusty : Hey guys, wait up! Sorry I'm late. Ben Bennett : Thought you weren't going to make it because your date. Rusty : My "date" took less time then I'd planned. Cappie : A lover's spat? Rusty : Well, that'd require talking. 'Cause all Tina and I do is, You know... Cappie : If you can't say it, you really should not be doing it. Rusty : Sex. Cappie : Usually guys are a lot happier in these situations, Spittoon. Rusty : It's not that I don't like it, it's just... it's weird. I guess she's my girlfriend, but I don't even know her middle name. Or her last name. Ben Bennett : If you don't talk, is she technically a girlfriend? Rusty : What else would she be? Pickle : More like a friend with benefits? Cappie : No, no. No, "friends with bennies" talk. The girl talks, usually complaining about other guys. Ben Bennett : Which makes Rusty a booty call. Beaver : That's only if she calls him for late night drunk sex. Cappie : Gentlemen. Gentlemen, Spitter is none of the above. He is, instead, the embodiment of every man's dream. You, my very lucky little friend, are now officially a Fff... What you fun... Buddy. Fun buddy. * Evan : Hey, make sure we got one more case of vodka. Calvin: You bet. Cappie : Loading up on wine coolers for your American Girl spring fashion party? Evan : We're celebrating the end of Dean Bowman's restrictions, and since I was the one who made it possible, we're throwing a six-way tomorrow night. All the best houses on campus. We seem to have lost your invitation. All right, guys, load up. Cappie : You used my argument. And it was my argument that got the restrictions lifted. Evan : Right, unfortunately, that's too long-winded to fit on the invitation you're not getting, so... Cappie : Well, you all know what this means! Beaver : We should rush a rich kid next year? Cappie : Two houses will enter the ring only one will survive. Beaver : Cap, it takes weeks of careful planning to create chaos. There's not enough time. Rusty : Not to mention money. Cappie : It doesn't matter. A great party's not about money, it's about a vision. It's about faith. ZBZ HOUSE - Bathroom Ashleigh : How do you spell "brunette"? Casey : "B-R-O-W-N." Ashleigh : Genius. My thumbs say thank you. Casey : What are you doing? Ashleigh : Dating is a numbers game, so I'm making hot guy folders in my address book before the Omega Chi party tomorrow night. Casey : And since we no longer have to deal with 11:00 PM curfews or noise limits... Ashleigh : The time is ripe to meet a ton of hot guys, get their phone numbers, and organize them, then pick a winner. Gimme your phone. Casey : No, thanks. My hot-guy targeting skills suck lately. Jail bait Jonah, Shun-me Shane... Ashleigh : So, what? You're just gonna spend the evening making small talk with your new "just-a-buddy" Evan? Casey : No, I'm totally going after guys tomorrow tonight, but I decided to let the universe work for me. According to the book I'm reading, that's The Secret to getting what you want. You focus, send out positive energy... and the guys will come to you. Ashleigh : If you say so. I'm sticking with the tried and true. Casey : And I'm going to think about what would make me happy. Rebecca : We ran out of hot water! Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Meeting room Casey : You'll be happy to know that the water heater will be fixed later this afternoon, Which leads us to tonight's six-way at the Omega Chi house. We still need two Sober Sisters to stay in and make sure the rest of us get back home safely. And Betsy, I was kind of hoping that you'd volunteer considering how much "fun" you've had at past events. Betsy : And Miss the first party without restrictions, are you kidding? Just get some of the pledges to do it. Casey : Are there any pledges not planning on going to the Omega Chi house? Rebecca : We're not. Casey : Really? That's so great. You and another sister... Mandy : We're going to the Kappa Tau party. Casey : The Kappa Taus are having a party tonight? Rebecca : They are, they're the only ones who risked having parties with us when no one else would, I think we Zetas Betas should go to their house as a sign of solidarity. Casey : Well, while we can all applaud the Kts for making a stand, a sloppy drunken one to be sure, we did officially accept the Omega Chi invitation, so... Rebecca : Case, I'm a little confused. That doesn't mean there's a rule that we all have to go, does it? Frannie : I'll get it. Casey : No, of course not, it's just that perhaps we should schedule another function with the Kts. Like... putt-putt. Rebecca : Putt-putt? Casey : On! Tuesday night, three weeks from now. Yay! Meeting adjourned. Frannie : It's your little brother. Should I tell him you'll talk to him later? Casey : No, now is perfect. What's going on? Rusty : I'm having trouble with a girl. Casey : Really. What's the problem? Rusty : Sex. * Rusty : Come on, Casey, This is a bad idea. Casey : And talking to your sister about sex isn't? Rusty : I'm desperate. I need the female point of view. Ashleigh : I'm a female. Casey : If it gets too weird, you have my permission to leave. Ashleigh : Happy to help. So, you're wondering if it's too soon to get intimate? Rusty : What? No. Tina and I are way past that. Ashleigh : Wait... you no longer like her? Rusty : Honestly, I don't really even know her. Tina and I are fun buddies. Ashleigh : You're not here to brag, are you? That would just be weird. Rusty : What I am is just really confused. What if I'm using her? Do girls do stuff like this? Ashleigh : It can be emotionally taxing to have uncommitted sex, so once in a while, have a truthful talk with yourself. Rusty : Did you just make that up? Ashleigh : April 2005, Cosmopolitan Magazine, American Edition, author Ian Kerner, noted sexologist. I've read every issue from cover to cover since I was nine. Rusty : That's impressive. Ashleigh : So, do you both want the same thing? Rusty : Well, Tina seems to really want this, and, the sex is great. Ashleigh : No bragging, remember? Rusty : But... something's missing. It was different with Jen. Ashleigh : Girls can enjoy this kind of a relationship just as much as guys. But the real question isn't just what Tina wants. It's what you want, too. KT HOUSE – Livinf room Heath : Maybe it's just me, but, selling blood for beer doesn't seem like a good idea. Cappie : Are you kidding, we have three kegs. Heath : And low blood sugar. Cappie : Which only means we'll get drunk faster. I think of that as a "win-win." Heath : It's not going to make any difference anyway, I mean, three kegs, it's not gonna get us past the pre-party. Cappie : Which is why we scheduled entertainment. Beaver, how's the Jell-O wrestling coming? Beaver : One of the Jell-O wrestlers turned out to be allergic to gelatin, which means we're left with 87 boxes of strawberry powder and 18 cans of mandarin oranges. Ben Bennett : There's always the other wrestler. Cappie : Two is art, one is just weird. Beaver : It's not too late to call this off, Cap. Cappie : Never. Ben Bennett, I'm putting ou in charge of the Jell-O shts. Ben Bennett : But, we're out of vodka. Cappie : Well, just use water. Ben Bennett : You can make Jell-O with just water? Cappie : I don't know. Experiment and hope for the placebo effect. Just the Cartwright I'm looking for. Rusty : I'm all yours, Cap, as soon as I get back from the dorms. I have to tell Tina I can not see her anymore. It's her. Cappie : I can't let you do that. Rusty : Cappie, I know you think I'm crazy, but I have to get out of this. It might be everyone's dream, but it's not mine, and not doing anything is just making me all... itchy. Cappie : Relationships you end in person. Sex friends you let fade away. If you treat casual sexcapades, which is what you and Tina have, like a relationship, you're just gonna end up making both parties feel embarrassed and awkward. Rusty : But I can't just ignore her. Cappie : That's exactly what you do. You let her call a few times, you ignore the calls, she'll eventually realize that you're a scumbag, and she'll, you know, move on to somebody better. Rusty : Wait. Now I'm a scumbag? Cappie : But a scumbag with dignity. But never fear, redemption is at hand. Ice. Rusty : Ice? Cappie : We need three bags. You might find some change if you fish under the couch pillows. What the...? ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Frannie : Casey, can I talk to you for a sec? Casey : Sure. Frannie : It's just a little free advice. Casey : Frannie, you know you can always speak your mind. You were a great president. Well, mostly great. Frannie : Tonight's party isn't just about having a good time, it's about not disrupting our very delicate relationship with the Omega Chis, which would be seriously undermined if Rebecca and her pledge sisters went somewhere else. If you allow even a tiny... Casey : Hold on. Rebecca, Mandi? Remember, Sober Sisters help any Zeta Beta in need. And don't eat the ice cream on the left side of the freezer. That's for me when I get back. Rebecca : Night, Sisters. Casey : I'm sorry. You were saying? Frannie : I was saying, Bravo. Ashleigh : Let's go! Let's go! OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Calvin : I think this might've been a mistake. Evan : What was? Calvin : Inviting Michael on our first date to a fraternity party filled with hot guys. Evan : I don't think you have anything to worry about. Calvin : But I do. Frannie : It looks like all the Pledges made it to the right party. Casey : Imagine that. Evan : Ladies. Just to let you know, we have two fully stocked bars, the dance floor is filling up, and if anything goes wrong, please, don't bother telling me, because I'm going to be busy having a good time. Frannie : I'll drink to that. Excuse me, girls. I think there's a margarita with my name on it. Casey : So, you're having a good time? Evan : Yeah, so far. Casey : Good. Because I want you to have a good time. I mean, I want us both to have a good time. Evan : It's a party. Man : Hey, no cuts! OK? What'd I tell you about cutting in line? Captain Cuts-A-Lot. Evan : Excuse me. Man : What's your deal? Casey : Positivity initialized with the ex. Positive energy going out to the rest of the party. Casey & Ashleigh : Hi. Ashleigh : Ryan Prince. The cutest sweetest, smartest, pre-medest... Casey : Most unavailable guy here. Ashleigh : Yeah. Maybe you can send positive energy his way, and then send negative energy toward his skanky Tri-Pi girlfriend. Casey : Unfortunately, I don't think The Secret works that way. Ashleigh : Then I'll stick to the traditional approach. Casey : Thinking happy thoughts. Ashleigh : See you around, Sister. ** Evan : Calvin! Can I talk to you for a sec? Starting now, you're off pledge duties. I want you to keep an eye on Casey tonight. Calvin : Excuse me? Evan : OK, let me rephrase. Can you keep guys away from Casey, as quietly as possible, tonight? Calvin : I know you still have a thing for her, but... Evan : Why do you think I'm doing this? Parties the perfect way to reconnect. There's drinking, dancing, darkness and just enough time for things to happen naturally. If I make a move too fast, it'll freak Casey out. I need you to keep the field clear for a little while. Calvin : This doesn't sound like a good idea. Evan : I'm not asking as a friend, I'm asking you as your big brother. Calvin : I'll do what I can. Evan : All right. KT HOUSE - Party Cappie : Stop here. Stop here. Stop here! Not stopping here. Beaver : I bet people are just being fashionably late. Cappie : More party goers! Everyone, look alive! Beaver : How many? Heath : Fourteen. Beaver : Ben Bennett said he put in placebos, but I'm not feeling it. Heath : Me neither. Maybe we should go faster? Beaver : Good thinking. Rusty : How long until I become a scumbag? Cappie : Give it time, Spitter. Rusty : It's a good party, though? Cappie : This is not a party, this is a get-together. Pretty soon, someone's gonna bust out a deck of cards and suggest that we play a rousing game of Pinochle. Ben Bennett : Hey Cappie, we're almost out of beer. Cappie : OK, think. We need beer. We need girls. We need girls who can't hold much beer. Dorm girls. We need dorm girls. Hoover, Stork, dorm sweep. Let's go. Beaver : You know, your phone's ringing. Rusty : It's Tina. I want to tell her I can't do this anymore, but Cappie told me not to do anything. Beaver : Gave me the same advice when I was seeing this Tri-Pi. Rusty : Realy? What happened? Beaver : She set my car on fre. Rusty : I don't have a car. Beaver : You got nothing to worry about. You know, you can break up with a fun buddy over the phone. Rusty : Yeah, you see, I'm not exactly that good over the phone. Beaver : You just need some practice. Wait. You be you, I'll be Tina. Rusty : All right. Beaver : Rusty, I'm waiting. Rusty : All Ring. Ring. Ring. Beaver : Hello, who is this? Rusty : All Hey, it's Rusty. Beaver : Rusty who? Just kidding. So, are we gonna get together later? I'm so lonely and you're so good, especially when you do that thing with, you know... Rusty : I don't think we should do this anymore, Tina. Beaver : So that's it? You get me to sleep with you, then you treat me like dirt. Like I'm some piece of meat? Rusty : No... I just feel. Beaver : You are such a pig! I hope you burn in hell, Rusty Cartwright! I hate you! And I'll hate you forever! I think you need more practice. Jell-O sht? OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Man : No way, I had Allesandri last semester, too. Casey : So who'd you do the mid-term heroes project with? Man : That part really blew. So, at the last second, the TA tells me I have to write it by myself because of some new guy that showed up. Casey : Weird. Calvin : I'm sorry, man. Here, let me help you with that. Man 1 : Dude, dude, dude. I got it, thanks. I'll be right back. Casey : OK. You go get cleaned up. Calvin : I'll show him where the kitchen is. Sorry, Casey. * Man 2 : Hey. Man 3 : What's up, Ryan? Casey : Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts. Lamda Sig guy : Hey, Casey! Casey! Casey : Hey. * Calvin : Hey, you're late. I was worried. Michael : I was grading papers. Calvin : On a Saturday night? Michael : Now I finally understand why you like it here. You're like a moose shy of an Abercrombie ad. Calvin : No mocking, remember? Michael : I'm kidding. I just... I don't have a lot in common with a bunch of fraternity guys. Calvin : I'm a fraternity guy. Michael : You're a fraternity guy interested in me. It's different. Calvin : Damn. Hey, why don't you go get a drink? Be right back. * Casey : I didn't know there was so much to fantasy baseball. Lamda Sig guy : Yeah, it's complicated, more complicated than managing a real team. I spend most weekends researching triple A shortstops, home/away splits, Obps... Calvin : Omega Chi/Lambda Sig boat race. Lamda Sig guy : But I was just... Calvin : Gonna chicken out? Lamda Sig guy : No way, man. I'm totally in. Calvin : No way! Great party? * Man : All right, let's go. Lamda Sig guy : Go! * Michael : Merlot, please? Omega chi guy : You know this is a fraternity party. Evan : Michel? Michael : You're... Glad you could make it. Evan : Evan Chambers, Freshman year, French 101. You were my TA. Michael : Yeah, of course. Evan : You don't remember me? Michael : I'm sorry, not at all. Evan : All right. That's all right. I'm Calvin's big brother, and just so you know, I'm OK with it. Michael : With what? Evan : My B minus. French wasn't my thing. Man : Michel, dude! * Casey : The universe has unreliable taste in men. How's your approach working? Ashleigh : Six guys'phone numbers, wow. And I even made out with one of them. Man : Hey! There you are! Ashleigh : I can't remember which one. A blonde guy, I think. Casey : To tell you the truth, this whole "happy thoughts" thing... Might be working. Ryan : Casey ? Casey : Where's... Kaitlin? Ryan : We broke up. Ashleigh : Yay universe. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Rebecca : Tonight sucks, and I for one, am not going to trade in one set of restrictions for another. Mandy : But we're pledges. Rebecca : As the daughter of a politician, let me tell you, it is better to beg forgiveness than ask permission. Mandy : Wait. What are you doing? Rebecca : I'm going upstairs to slip on some party clothes... after I tell our pledge sisters to meet us at Kappa Tau. Are you coming? KT HOUSE - Party Rusty’s answerphone : Tina here, again. Call me back when you have a chance. Talk to you soon. Bye. Heath : The kegs are floated, man. What are we gonna do now? Cappie : As black clouds portend a deathly storm, we are but simple sailors on a single mission, to save that which we hold most dear. Beaver : I think I speak for everyone here. What are you talking about? Cappie : We have no money, no money means no alcohol, no alcohol, no party. But, I have a plan. Rusty : To make money? Cappie : To steal the alcohol and the party. Fellow adventurers, it's time for us to implement... The douchebag... bag. Beaver : I like it. OMEGA CHI - Party Cappie : Good Lord. It's like we died and went to Gossip Girl. Rusty : I gotta go to the bathroom. Cappie : Didn't I tell everyone to go before we left? Pee quickly. * Casey : That must've been hard. You and Kaitlin were together for so long. Ryan : Too long. I know this may sound cheesy, but I think every relationship has a lifespan. Once it's over, you can't bring it back. Casey : It's not cheesy. But it's still hard to let go. Ryan : Same for you and Chambers? Casey : Yeah, it's more... the story of my life. It's hard to let go of old relationships. Ryan : For us, things just got worse, and before I knew it, the fat lady was belting out an aria. Casey : I didn't know Kaitlin could sing. Ryan : Remind me not to get on your bad side. Casey : It's very small. I promise. Calvin : That was pretty funny. Kaitlin sing... Casey : Calvin, I'm seeing more of you tonight than I have... ever. Calvin : It's just so nice to catch up. Casey : Would it be possible to get me a drink? A beer? Calvin : Two, please. Light! Casey : What's going on? You've been buzzing around me all night. Calvin : You know, I think we don't get to... sort of, you know... You're stealing the mens for yourself. That ain't fair, girlfriend. * Calvin : I'm out. You're on your own. * Casey : I think your little brother might have just lost it. Evan : I think he's a little nervous tonight. First visit to the house with a date. But, I'll talk with him. Are you having a good time? Casey : Actually I'm having a great time. How about you? Evan : Almost too busy to notice. When things kinda calm down, you wanna have a dance? Friendly, you know. Casey : Sure. I'd love to... dance. Evan : That's it. Casey : I'm this way. * Calvin : I'm sorry about earlier. It's kind of hard to explain. Michael : You don't have to. Who's gonna start the bus? Calvin : You know. If you're not comfortable being here, we can always leave. Michael : You made it through the gay and lesbian film night at the Titan, I think I can get through this. Maybe I need another drink. I'll have a... Man : Sorry, we're out... of everything. Pickle : Refills? * Casey : What are you doing here? Cappie : I just came to buy you a drink. Casey : One's already on order. Cappie : While we're waiting, I was wondering why no one from your house is at the KT party tonight. Casey : For one, the Omega Chis sent us an invitation three days ago. Cappie : We would've, but Beaver couldn't find his crayons. Casey : Not to mention you threw yours together at the last second. Cappie : Didn't seem to be a problem when you wanted us to help you with the Gatsby party. Where were the Omega Chis then? Casey : We made our peace with the Omega Chis, Sorry if we seem like fair weather friends, but I'm sure we can work something out with the Kts, maybe in three weeks, bring your golf clubs. Cappie : Sounds great, as long as you don't make Rebecca a Sober Sister that night, too. Casey : This has nothing to do with you and Rebecca. It's... about your problem with Evan, which I can't do anything about. Don't put me in the middle of your feud. Cappie : Feud? What feud? * Girl : I need to pee. Rusty : The line starts down the hall. Girl : I need to pee now. Man : Hey, no cuts! Girl : I have a bladder infection! What's your name? Rusty : Rusty. Girl : Your phone's ringing, Rusty. Rusty : This girl I need to break up with. Girl : I love break-ups. What is she? Relationship, casual date, random hook-up, booty call? Rusty : She's a fun buddy. Girl : That's an easy one, send her an e-mail. It's quick, to the point, personal without being too personal, easily deleted. Rusty : Really? Girl : Really. Rusty : Thank you. Cappie : Be right back. * Ryan : That's so funny. I was actually worried about talking with you. Casey : Why? Ryan : We've both always been in relationships, this may sound a little stalkerish but even when I was dating Kaitlin, I... I always wondered what it'd be like to date you. Casey : And. After so much pressure you didn't want to ruin the fantasy if reality didn't measure up. I felt the same way about you. Ryan : It's like a Seurat painting, getting too close is not always a good thing. Casey : But... not tonight? Ryan : Tonight... up close is perfect. * Calvin : Have you seen Michael? Evan : I haven't seen him for a while. Calvin : You OK? Evan : Yeah, I'm fine. Calvin : I'm sorry if I screwed this up. Evan : It's not your fault. It's mine. Calvin : What're you going to do now? Evan : I'm, I'm gonna get a drink. KT HOUSE - Party Cappie : We have returned! Rebecca ? You look hot. Rebecca : And you look oddly... clean. Cappie : Don't worry, it's only temporary. Can I make you a drink? OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Calvin : Hey ! Michael : I guess I'll see you tomorrow? Calvin : I don't know, will you? Michael : You've been avoiding me most of the night. Calvin : Sorry, I've been busy with pledge stuff. But, you've been acting like this is the last place on earth you want to be. I mean, if you're worried about the guys, don't be. They're not hm. Michael : hm? I'm not worried about that. Calvin... I'm the oldest guy in this room. Calvin : What are you talking about? Michael : I was in first grade when you were born. When I had my first legal drink, you were still in middle school. And now, I'm in this fraternity party, and... Calvin : With someone who is finally old enough to not care about the differences. Michael : Considering how you ran around all night, you have a weird way of showing it. Calvin : I know it. You know, I planned a much different evening. I was kinda hoping we could talk and drink, and then, I could sneak you off into a quiet corner and... Michael : Discuss my age issues? Calvin : I was thinking something a little more personal. * Frannie : You look, not so good. Evan : I can assure you, it's nowhere near as bad as I feel. Frannie : How's, Project Reconciliation going? Evan : Thank you. I did my best. Frannie : You tell her how you feel? Evan : I was far more devious than that. I had Calvin keep guys away from her so I could make my move. Frannie : And how's that working out for you? Evan : Not as well as it did the first time. Remember Shane? You know why he stood Casey up after the Mr. Purr-fect contest? 'Cause I paid him to leave her alone. Pretty smart? Frannie : Yeah, brilliant. Evan : I distinctly remember you you telling me to take fate into my own hands. Frannie : Maybe instead of trying to keep all the guys away from one girl, you should find a girl who thinks you're the only guy in the room. * Ryan : Guess it's all about timing. Casey : And the right frame of mind. Ryan : Yes, totally. Steady there. Betsy : I'm Betsy! Casey : Yes you are, and you need to go home. Did you call Rebecca? Betsy : Yes, I tried, and I tried, and I tried. Casey : I'm sorry. Betsy : You go home. I wanna go home. Hey, you're really cute. Do you want some of this? Casey : It's going straight to voicemail. Rebecca must've taken off. Ryan : If you want, I can have some of my pledges walk her home, or... Casey : Thanks, but, I need to take care of this. Betsy : I bet you give really good physicals. Ryan : You want some company? Casey : No, I have to go kll my little sister and I'm not sure I want you seeing that side of me yet. But, I'll be back. Promise. Betsy : There's no more booze in here anyway. Paging Dr. Prince! Paging Dr. Prince! Casey : Rebecca and Mandi went AWOL. Yeah. Come on. Frannie : It looks like fate might be on your side after all. KT HOUSE - Party Rusty : Hi Tina. How are you? I'm fine. Hey Tina, while I've really enjoyed seeing... Thank you for the... Rebecca : President Cartwright! You decided to come to Kappa Tau after all! Casey : Just to make a delivery. Sober Sister, this is for you. Rebecca : I'm sorry, I didn't order this. Betsy : I'm not a this, I'm a she. Or a her. I'm a she-her. Casey : Not your choice. You're the Sober Sister, it's your responsibility to take care of the girls in the house and, I need to get back to the party, so... Betsy : I'm not entirely sober, either. Casey : Well, all right, it's only about what's good for the house. And Betsy. Rebecca : And what's good for you, right? Casey : What's good for me right now now is this guy I just met at the Omega Chi party, you screwed that up, too. Rebecca : I'm responsible for messing up your love life? Casey : You've done it before. Rebecca : Please! Cappie : Are you allergic to gelatin? Rebecca : What? Cappie : Nothing. It's just something a lot of us would like to see. Casey : Cappie, would you explain to your girlfriend a pledge is required to do... Cappie : I think this has nothing to do with me, this is your problem with Rebecca, which I can't do anything about. So, don't put me in the middle of your feud. Rebecca : That's not good. Cappie : Clean up on aisle three! CRU - Street Betsy : I'm sorry that I ruined your night. Casey : You didn't ruin my night, Rebecca did. You just helped. But I'm afraid this might be your last party for awhile, Bets. Betsy : I need to lay down now. Ryan : Casey ! I wasn't sure if you were gonna come back to the party. Casey : I'm sorry about tonight, the snarky remark about your ex-girlfriend, the weirdness with Calvin, having to leave... Ryan : Hey. It's OK. I had a wonderful time. Casey : Really? Ryan : Without a doubt. OMEGA CHI HOUSE - Party Frannie : What happened to the alcohol? Evan : Someone stole it. I'm pretty sure it was Cappie. Frannie : And you're not mad? Evan : You know, it's the funny thing about parties, you can't predict how they're gonna turn out. Frannie : Like relationships. Evan : True. But, you know, the difference is, in the end, parties don't matter. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Casey : I think we were both right. Ashleigh : What do you mean? Casey : I think you can wish for things to happen, but ultimately, fate is a numbers game. Even if you're in on The Secret, you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you can find your prince. Ashleigh : Well, then that means after tonight, I'm three frogs closer. Casey : Busy night? I'm closer by one. Ashleigh : You kissed Ryan? Oh my God, what was it like? Fireworks? Parades? Disney princess music? Casey : He remained a frog. Ashleigh : So Ryan Prince is a frog? Casey : He tried to catch a fly in my tonsils. Ashleigh : I dated a poker once, the whole time he was trying to, like, Jackhammer out my teeth. Casey : I hate the foamers, the ones with wet mouths? It's like French kissing a St. Bernard. Ashleigh : Or the swashbucklers, back and forth, back and forth. Casey : I don't know why someone doesn't come up with some kissing rules, so when you find the right guy, there's never a surprise. KT HOUSE - Party Heath : If all you wanna do is tell this chick you're not interested, send her a text. Rusty : Really? Heath : Sure. Beaver, help me out, here. Beaver : IJWTS, UR, GR8. Heath : I just want to say you are great. Good one. Beaver : SLJBF. Heath : So let's just be friends. You're officially free. Rusty : I am. I'm free. I feel free. Beaver : Punch? * Rebecca : I'm still ticked off you didn't back me up with Casey. Cappie : Sure I did. You're still here, aren't you? Rebecca : That's not the point. Someday you have to make a choice, like if Casey and I were drowning, which one of us would you save first? Cappie : Neither, I can't swim. But, Water Wings aside, you know what really bothers me? This. This is still Evan's party. Nice, well-behaved, clean. A Kappa Tau affair is usually screwed up in some sick, depraved way. Rebecca : But it's huge. That's what you wanted, right? Cappie : Size doesn't matter, well, I mean, sometimes it does, but this party it's not right. *** Rusty : That was fast. I don't want to read it. What did she say? Beaver : Rusty, thanks for letting me know. By the way, I have crabs. Cappie : Now this, this is a Kappa Tau party. Good going, Spitter. Now, leave, and don't come back for seven to ten days. Crabs?	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x20 - A Tale of Two Parties"}	foreverdreaming
CRU - Street Ashleigh : Can't believe you signed up for an extra class you don't get credit for. Casey : It's a prep class. And, according to Evan, it's the best way to ace the LSAT. And it gets my mom off my back, which is even better than course credit. Frannie : Thank God I gave up my advanced degree aspirations. Standardized tests are so not my thing. Good luck, Case. I'm off to my seminar on the movies of John Hughes. Enjoy! Ashleigh : So... Is Evan taking this LSAT class, too? Casey : Evan? No, Mr. Born-Lawyer already took the class, of course. On his way to becoming the Supreme Court's youngest clerk ever. "Welcome to your first step towards an exciting future career in the law." Ashleigh : Casey Cartwright, Esquire. Casey : Bad-ass prosecutor by day, and Armani-wearing temptress by night. Ashleigh : It's like you're a superhero. Casey : A superhero with an expense account. Ashleigh : Don't remind me. Casey : About expense accounts? Ashleigh : About money. I'm broke. What am I gonna do about spring break? It's next week. Casey : There's no way you can your parents go give you more? Ashleigh : I can't tell them I've already spent my allowance for this month. Can I borrow against your future account? Casey : You'll have to make an appointment with my cute administrative man-sistant to discuss that. Ashleigh : Stop, you're intimidating me. Casey : Wait until you see me in the courtroom. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury... KT HOUSE - Meeting Cappie : Case closed. And so it is resolved. It takes 427 licks to get to the chocolate-y center. Good going, Spitter. I've never seen anyone lick something that fast. It was mildly disturbing. Now, that that's out of the way, you're all ready to become new men. Rusty : Are we getting initiated? Cappie : This is an initiation of sorts. Wait, Beaver. This box contains the lost souls of dozens of departed Kappa Taus. Pickle : You think there are body parts in there? Cappie : This box holds your futures. You are no longer Pickle. Pickle : I'm not? Cappie : No, you're not. You are now... Peter Carey, age 24. Kappa Tau class of 2006. Gentlemen, it's time to get your fake Ids. Because while the Kappa Tau basement does not card, the bouncers at spring break do. Beaver : Buzzkill. Wade : Doormen you encounter next week are fierce, pledges. You must become one with your new identies. Let no Myrtle Beach bouncer tear you asunder. Cappie : Ben Bennett, you are now... Of course. Frank Franklin. Ben Bennett : Sweet! Rusty : Wait, that doesn't look anything like him. We're gonna get in trouble? Cappie : Everything worth while comes with at a risk, Spitter. Or should I say... Chad Stewart? Credits CRU - Classroom Girl : So what'd you get? Casey : A new notebook? Girl : Your score. I got a 160 last practice test. I got a 160 on my last practice test, which would be OK, except I want to go to Yale and they would laugh at me with that score. And if I don't get into the international trade law program at Yale, I'm done. I have a 3.9, which is OK, but I really need to beef up my internships this summer if I don't want to be a total joke. Casey : Yeah. Girl : Have you started interviewing yet? Casey : Interviewing... No, not yet. I thought this class was my first step towards an exciting future career in the law. Girl : What'd you get on your last practice test? Man : One-seventy. Casey : OK, looks like some people are overdoing it a little bit, right? Man : What do you mean? Teacher : OK, everybody. Let's get down to business. I'm sure you've been practicing, so let's go ahead and start off with a mock-LSAT. Pass those back. You've got two hours. When I say go, go… GO. KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Welcome to Bionic Beats. Can I see some ID? Rusty : No problem. Cappie : He's on the guest list. Chad Stewart? Rusty : That's right. Chad Stewart. 2343 Homer Terrace, Sunshine, Florida. Cappie : What's your sign, buddy? You get out of here. You and your fake ID! You get out of my club! Nobody messes with Tad, the best bouncer in Myrtle Beach! Get outta my sight! Rusty : Come on! Cappie : You didn't have to give a noogie. Lucky that's all you got. If we were in Myrtle, you'd get a class-one misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not more than $200 or imprisonment for not more than 30 days plus court costs. Let's let Rusty's abject failure be a lesson to us all. Rusty : Well, what kind of question is, "What's your sign?" Cappie : A question the real Chad Stewart would have answered easily. There's an in-bar field test coming up tonight. I want you to study up and be prepared, or it's Noogieville for you. Or jail in some states. Beaver : Man, it is wild in there! You don't even wanna know. Cappie : Back of the line. Next. CRU - Street Ashleigh : I can't believe this. Calvin : How commercialized spring break has become? Ashleigh : That's all good. It's that I won't be able to participate in any of the pre-packaged commercialism this year unless I win the lottery. Hello, Powerball. Calvin : Don't you have a credit card? Ashleigh : Yes. But the bill goes to my parents. And ever since they figured out that my charges to MAC were for lip gloss and not computer tech-support, they've been strict with it. Girl : Well, you won't have that problem here. Your Credit Plus bill goes right to you. Not only that, it will allow you to establish a credit history in your name. Ashleigh : That sounds like a smart thing to do. Girl : It is. And for every purchase you make, you'll earn points. And I can offer you a thousand dollar limit. Ashleigh : Sign us up! Calvin : I don't know. Girl : I can throw in a free MP3 player, but the offer is good for today only. But since you guys are such good customers, I can have those cards overnighted to you, and you'll be ready to charge tomorrow. Ashleigh : It's just a credit card. It's not the Army. Calvin : Sure, why not? Ashleigh : Spring break, here we come. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : What are you studying? Rusty : I am studying Chad Stewart. Dale : I haven't come across any Chad Stewart. Is that in the string theory section? Rusty : Chad Stewart is the guy whose fake ID I inherited. But all I can find is his CRU web page from three years ago. Apparently, he's a songwriter. Not bad? Dale : Pretty rudimentary chord changes if you ask me. Rusty : How old do I look in this? Dale : Eighteen. You know, lying about who you are is never good, Rusty. It signals a lack of self-esteem. Why would I want to be anyone but Dale Kettlewell? Rusty : You wouldn't, Dale. Dale : Obviously. Rusty : What about this? Dale : You look like my cousin Barry. He always wore a hat like that. He's in prison now. Rusty : I don't care about your cousin. I need to look like a 24-year-old singer and snowboarder who backpacks through South-east Asia. Dale : To my knowledge, people who travel through South-east Asia generally look like pedophiles. Which is kind of fitting, because that's what Barry got pinched for. Rusty : All right. Come on, man, help me out. Dale : I will. By referring you to the Book of Matthew, which tells us that one sign of the end times is Satan impersonating an angel of light. So it's up to you, Rust. What do you want to be? Satan, or an angel of light? Rusty : Whichever gets me served in Myrtle Beach, Dale. Dale : That'd be Satan. Satan lives in Myrtle Beach. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Evan : Hey! What are you doing here? Your Guide to Acing the LASAT. Casey : I'm taking that prep class you took last semester. Why didn't you tell me the goobers in that class passed the bar? I am way behind. I got a 140 on my first practice test, thanks to those stupid logic problems. So I thought... Evan : I could help you? Casey : Yeah, but not if it's too weird. I don't want to ask too much of our brand-new friendship. Evan : You know, of course it's not too weird. You need help, I'm here for you. And I've got a bunch of my old practice tests upstairs. You're right, those logic problems can be a bitch. CRU – A bar Cappie : Ok. Pickle, you're up first. Then Ben Bennett. Rusty might need a little extra prep time. Rusty : Hey, I've been studying. Cappie : I'm sure you have, Spitter. Ok. She just got a big tip. Her mood is good. Pickle, you're up. Girl : Gentlemen. What can I get you? Pickle : I'll have a vodka and orange juice, please. Girl : No problem. Can I just see some ID first? Pickle : Sure. Girl : So, Peter, I see you're from Omaha? Pickle : I'm a Libra. Girl : How about just the orange juice? What about you? You over 21? Ben Bennett : Well, I'm flattered you'd ask, little lady. I haven't been Ided in years. Girl : Six-foot-three, huh? Ben Bennett : I'm gotta go to the bathroom. Pickle : Me, too. Girl : What about you two? Got some ID for me? Are you really Chad Stewart? Cappie : In the flesh. Rusty : Yeah. Who else would I be? Girl : This is so weird. I always had this fantasy of you walking into my bar one day. I never thought it would happen. I mean, you haven't been seen in Cyprus in three years, since you walked out of that gig at the Coffee Grounds Cafe. By the way, I agree with you. Commercialism has ruined music. Hunter's Heartis my favorite song off your underground CD. I'm Trish, by the way. Rusty : Well, you know my name. Trish : So what can I get you? Rysty : Singapore Sling. Trish : Singapore Sling. You are so cool. I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere. Cappie : Singapore Sling? Rusty : Well, Chad Stewart spent a summer in Singapore. Cappie : Far be it for me to question Chad Stewart. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Casey : "A seafood restaurant serves five different entrees on five different nights. If halibut is served only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, then when does the restaurant serve Lobster"? First of all, I'm never eating seafood again. Secondly, am I crazy or are these questions totally pointless? Is anyone thinking of fish when they're defending someone on death row? Evan : If they're hungry, maybe. No, seriously, the point is testing your reasoning skills. They're what you use to craft your entire argument. You know, and winning arguments is what the law is all about. If you find the right argument, you can win any case. It doesn't matter what the facts are. The truth is beside the point. Casey : But, in the meantime, I'm still dealing with fish. Evan : That's true. OK. But I also know that you happen to be a whiz at Sudoku. Remember? I had fight you for it every Sunday morning. Casey : Yeah? What are you trying to do? trture me with the various leisure activities I no longer have time to enjoy? Evan : No, no. I'm trying to point out to you that these logic problems are actually a lot like Sudoku. You line things up and cancel them out until they fit. Casey : That makes sense. Evan : Yeah. Casey : So let's try this again, Sunday morning Sudoku-style. Evan : Right on. Isn't this strange? I mean, us getting studying for the LSAT together like we always planned? Casey : No. It doesn't feel strange to me. It feels... great that we can be mature enough to sit here together, studying, as friends. I love this. Evan : Me, too. CRU – A bar Rusty : So there I was, all alone, hiking through the Kanchanaburi province, when I came upon the most pristine rainbow I've ever seen. Trish : Wait, is that how you got inspired to write Wet Tuesday That's my second favorite song of yours. Rusty : No. Actually the, the wetness in the song refers to the tears that I shed after a bad breakup. Trish : Must've been the worst breakup ever, given the violent imagery in that song. "Singed flesh" and "shattered bones." Yikes! Rusty : Yeah. Exactly. Gee, you sure know a lot about my music. Trish : I'm sorry. Am I making you uncomfortable? I know how private you are. I'm just still so amazed you came out of hiding. I'll be right back. Rusty : Did you see that? She's way into me. Cappie : Easy, Spitter. Chick bartenders tend to make all male drinkers feel like that. They're like clothed strippers that way. Trish : Hey, would you, maybe, be interested in going to this party thing with me this weekend? Rusty : Yeah. Trish : Great! Meet me here. Friday night, 7:00. Man : Excuse me, miss. Rusty : Ok. Trish : Ok. Bye. Rusty : All right. Looks like you had it all wrong. Cappie : Cough syrup and suntan lotion. Rusty : Exactly. CRU - Classroom Casey : Sunday morning Sudoku. DOBLERS Frannie : Casey's a genius, yay! Casey : OK. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's just a practice test. Ashleigh : But you got a 155. And that deserves another round. Frannie : Exactly. Ashleigh : I'll get this one. A pitcher, please, and you can keep the tab open. Got it. I've always wanted to say that. Casey : Take it easy there, Spendy González. I don't want my first court Case bailing you out of debtor's prison. Ashleigh : I have it under control. Besides, every time I make a purchase, I earn points. Frannie : Points for what? Ashleigh : I don't know. But everyone loves points. Casey : I'll be right back. I'm I'm gonna give my study-buddy the good news. Ashleigh : I say they're back together by spring break. What do you think? Frannie : I don't think she'd take him back, do you? Ashleigh : Never thought she'd take him back after he slept with Rebecca. And I never thought she'd hook up with Cappie again. So who knows? But, think about it, this is how they started out freshman year. They were just friends. Before you know it, a friendly hug becomes a friendly kiss becomes here we go again. So... it's not what I'd choose for her, but if it makes her happy... Frannie : I guess I thought. She was so done with him, nothing he did would make a difference. Casey : No, I outscored most of those bleeding ulcers because of you. Thank you so much. Evan : You're the one that took the test. You're gonna make a great lawyer. I, for one, can personally attest to your skills in the argumentative arts. Casey : Seriously, I owe you one. Evan : Let's grab dinner, celebrate. Casey : Yeah, sure, why not? Evan : All right. Casey : But only if you let me treat. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : She's going for it. I tell her I snowboard in the Swiss Alps. So then she invites me to this wild party this weekend. Pickle : Are you gonna go? Rusty : Of course I'm gonna go. I can't disappoint my biggest fan. Ben Bennett : That is awesome. I can't believe she bought you as a 24-year-old musician. We have got to work on our fake ID technique, OK? Cappie : Aren't you supposed to be organizing Beaver's adult video collection? Ben Bennett : Sorry, Cap. Rusty was just telling us about the sweet party he's going to this weekend. Cappie : Is that so? Spitty, you're not actually thinking about going to that party? Rusty : Trish invited me. I can't stand her up. Cappie : No, Trish invited Chad Stewart. Not Rusty Cartwright. Playing Chad Stewart over a round of Singapore Slings is one thing, but do you really think you can pull it off for an entire night? Me thinks you're in over your head, wee one. Rusty : You think I can't handle it? Cappie : Well... No, I... Rusty : Hey. Come on. 'Cause I think I can handle myself just fine. In fact, while you've been tied down with one girl all semester, I've been handling myself with various ladies. Cappie : Handling yourself is perfectly normal and we all do it, but it's not necessarily something you wanna brag about. Rusty : Very funny. What about Tina? Cappie : I forgot about Tina. Too bad she turned out to be so... crabby. Rusty : Hey, I took care of it. Cappie : I'm not trying to sound like a jerk. I just don't want you to get carried away. Because when a man gets too big for his britches, you know how he ends up, Rusty? Naked. Think about that. CRU - Street Ashleigh : I really wanted that wrap. It would've gone perfectly with all of my new bathing suits. What kind of thrift store doesn't take credit cards that way? Calvin : A thrift store that only takes cash. And didn't you already buy some sort of wrap? Ashleigh : I can return that. And this is vintage. Calvin : Do I need to do a credit-card intervention on you? Ashleigh : I need all this stuff for spring break. When I get back, I'll get more allowance and I'll be able to pay it all off, without a cent of interest. Do you see how carefully I've thought this out? Calvin : Yeah, but your careful thinking seems to have found its limit. Ashleigh : Unless... I give up "careful" thinking and go for more... "outside the box" thinking. You said you needed a new flash drive. They sell those at the campus store, which takes credit cards. See where I'm going with this? Calvin : Yeah, I give you the cash, and you charge the flash. Ashleigh : And we have a plan. Just this once. Please, please, please. Calvin : All right, all right. Why do I feel like Michael Jackson's plastic surgeon? Rusty : What are those? Casey : Books. You, of all people, should recognize them. Rusty : So you were serious about that law school thing? I thought you were trying to get Mom off your back. Casey : No, that was just a happy byproduct. Rusty, hello. Law school has been my plan since freshman year. Rusty : Really? What kind of law? Casey : I'll worry about that after I get through my LSAT class. Which, by the way, I am kicking ass in. I have to go meet Evan for dinner. Rusty : You're meeting Evan for dinner? Casey : He's been helping me with my LSAT class, that's all. And we're going out to celebrate. Rusty : And... Casey : And... Rusty : Here we go again. Did anyone ever tell you you're the world's biggest flip-flopper? Casey : I'm not flip-flopping. Evan and I are friends. Rusty : No, Evan isn't capable of being a decent friend. There's always a catch with him. He's sneaky and manipulative, and you cannot trust him. Case, he's gonna take you to some swanky, romantic restaurant and try and lure you back. It's like he's the Kanchanaburi pit vipe of Thailand, and you're his juicy little field mouse. Casey : You haven't let Cappie make you brownies, have you? And there's no way that's what Evan's thinking. What's with the jacket? You look like you're 12. Rusty : Really? Casey : Yeah, really. See ya later, Rust. Rusty : Don't be his field mouse, Casey. CRU - Restaurant Casey : This is the kind of place I was in the mood for. I'm glad you suggested it. Evan : Me, too. Hey. I hope you're in the mood for this, too. Casey : You're not gonna give me a mock-LSAT over dinner, are you? What's this for? Evan : Well, it just so happens that my dad's old buddy is the dean of admissions at Harvard. And it just so happens that this old buddy is in Cyprus for some conference. Casey : That's a lot of just-so-happening. Evan : But the biggest happening of all, I got you a sit-down with him. Sunday afternoon. Casey : Harvard Law School? Evan : Kind of a big one. Casey : Where you're going. Evan : Wait a minute, Case. Come on. You're not reading too much into this, are you? Casey : It just seems... Evan : Listen. Two of my Omega Chi brothers are already meeting with him. I thought... I thought it'd be great if you did, too. You know? This isn't some elaborate ploy to get you back. Casey : I know. Evan : 'Cause we're just friends. Amigos, right? That's it. But, listen, if that's too weird for you, then... Casey : No! It's not too weird for me. Evan : And it's not too weird for me. Casey : OK, so... I feel like a total Jackass. Can we just order and forget I said anything? And thank you. Evan : And you're welcome. ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Ashleigh : I love my new lip gloss. What do you think? Casey : I think... that corporate litigation sounds really boring. Ashleigh : Well, so do I. So stop reading that and come to Dobler's with me. I'm gonna open another tab. Casey : I can't. I'm meeting this Harvard guy tomorrow. I need to find something to talk to him about, like what kind of law I want to practice. There's... Quantitative corporate finance. Ashleigh : That sounds worse than corporate litigation. Casey : No, no, no. This actually sounds kind of cool: "Students learn to assess risk... by using multi-factor models and analyzing corporate structure." Ashleigh : Whatever you say. What's up with your knee? Casey : What? Ashleigh : You looked like you were having a convulsion. Casey : No, it didn't. Ashleigh : Well, I'm off. When fun Casey returns, she knows where to find me. Casey : "Contracts..." CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Hey, I don't look 12 in this, do I? Dale : No. Rusty : All right. Good. Dale : But it is kind of a feminine cut. Where are you going? Another one of your debauched frat fetes? Rusty : Actually, no. This is a party for grown-ups. Dale : I'm listening. Rusty : It's just this girl I met. It's this party in town. No one from school. Dale : Townie party? I'm totally down. Rusty : I didn't invite you, Dale. And why would you want to go anyway? Dale : I'm so weary of the juvenile drivel that passes for conversation on this campus. A little adult interaction is exactly what I need right now. Rusty : You know a lot about music, right? Dale : Are Norma Kettlewell's fresh-baked blueberry muffins the best smell in the world? The answer is yes. Rusty : OK. Great. Then you can come. 'Cause I might need your help. Dale : As always. All right. CRU - Shop Man : There's a five-dollar minimum for charges. Ashleigh : Well, I'll just have to get five dollars worth of gum. Man : Sorry. Card's been declined. Ashleigh : Come on. For five dollars? Are you sure? Man : Yep. Ashleigh : But I have a thousand dollar limit. There's no way I could possibly have spent... you don't happen to take points, do you? CRU - Party Rusty : Look at all these nice cars. I hope we're not underdressed. Dale : You might be. Rusty : And you have to call me Chad. Dale : What? No, Rusty. I did not sign on for anything like that. Trish : Hi. Rusty : Hey, Trish. Dale : I told you you were underdressed. Rusty : You look wonderful. This is my buddy, Dale. Dale : Yeah, hey. I... I just decided to accompany my good buddy Rock and Roll Chad to your little shindig tonight. Trish : Chad, I'm so glad you came. But, listen, please don't hate me. I wasn't totally honest with you when I invited you here. Rusty : Hey, I've always said honesty is overrated. So, whatever it is, it's no big deal. Dale : Two people joining under God. Sweet. Trish : My sister Jill is getting married today, and she's an even bigger fan of yours than I am, believe it or not. I'm sorry to ambush you like this. But I knew you'd say no if I asked in advance. But, well, our dad died last year, and it was your music that got Jill through that terrible time. And I promised her you'd do it. Well, since my dad couldn't be here to walk Jill down the aisle, maybe Hunter's Heartcan. Rusty : You want me to sing? Dale : Yeah. Go get 'em, Chad-o. Let's hear you rock that mic. Trish : Oh my god! My sister's gonna be so excited! Rusty : Sorry. Hunter's heart. You hide.. And I try to... Something... song. Trish : What's wrong? Is it stage fright? I know it's been a long time. Rusty : I'm sorry. I can't do this. I'm not Chad Stewart. Trish : Just give us a second. Everything's fine. What are you talking about? Rusty : My name is Rusty Cartwright. I'm 18 years old, I'm tone-deaf, I don't snowboard, I used Chad Stewart's ID to buy alcohol. Trish : That was a fake ID? Rusty : I'm really sorry. I probably could've gotten you fired. Trish : Yeah, that's the least of my problems right now. Woman : What's happening? What's going on? Man : Maybe she came to her senses and decided to call it off. She didn't want to marry him! She shouldn't. The Groom : Are you kidding me, Jill? You're flaking? That is it! I am SO sick of you and your drama-queen games! The Bride : You're calling me a drama queen? I have just one word for you, Pete: Phoenix. The Groom : You would bring that up! Rusty : Let's go. Dale : I hope you've learned a lesson about the wages of sin... Rusty : Shut up, Dale! DOBLERS Frannie : Thanks for making it quick. My friend's having a crisis. Here you go. Ashleigh : I'm so pathetic. I can't even pay for my own beer. Frannie : So you overdid on the whole consumerism thing. It happens. This is America. Don't fret. Ashleigh : I can't believe I bought all that stuff. I kept getting this crazed feeling like if I didn't grab what I wanted right away, that someone else would. Frannie : I know what you mean. Hey, isn't that that Lambda Sig who stood up Casey? What's his name, Shane? Ashleigh : What a dirtbag. Look at him over there, laughing all slimily. Frannie : That whole thing was so weird. Wasn't it? He seemed so into her. Ashleigh : I know! Frannie : I mean, if I were Casey, I'd be dying to know what made him do that, wouldn't you? He shouldn't be allowed to get away with dissing her like that. Ashleigh : You're right. Frannie : I'm sick of guys treating girls like crap and never get called out on it. Ashleigh : Me too. I wish I could just go over there and tell him off right here and now. Frannie : You should. Ashleigh : Really? Frannie : Yeah. Do it! Ashleigh : Hey, you! Shane : Yes? Can I help you? Ashleigh : You sure can. You can start by explaing to me who you think you are, blwing off Casey Cartwright? Shane : You seem a little drunk, so... Ashleigh : Well, you seem a little bit like a loser. Like one of those guys who has to treat girls badly to feel like a real man. Man : If you want to lecture someone about treating girls badly, talk to Evan, not my bro here. Shane : Steve! Ashleigh : Stop trying to change the subject. Evan is a really good friend of Casey's now. Shane : Look... Evan is no friend of Casey's. Ashleigh : What do you mean? OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Evan : Hold on. Hold on five seconds. Casey. What's wrong? Casey : Did you pay Shane Mullen to stay away from me? Evan : What are you talking about? Casey : I'm talking about you paying someone a thousand dollars to stand me up and humiliate me. Evan : That is crazy. Who told you that? Casey : Shane told Ashleigh at Dobler's. Evan : And you believe him over me? Casey : Why would he make that up? Evan : 'Cause he's a jerk. To excuse bad behavior. Casey : So you didn't pay him off? Evan : Look, you need to forget about him. You've got an interview to prepare for. Casey : You're not denying it. Just give me a straight answer, Evan. Evan : Yes. Casey : Who does that? You dumped me. You don't want to be with me, but you don't want anyone else to either? How could you be so spiteful? Evan : I didn't do it to be spiteful. Casey : Then why? Evan : Because I love you. Casey : After everything we've been through? Did you really think this is how you could win me back? Because that's not love. Evan : I was desperate. Casey : People who love each other shouldn't manipulate each other. This needs to stop. The things we keep doing to each other need to stop. Evan : I just don't want you to hate me. Casey : I don't hate you. I feel... sad for you. And for me, because I really thought we were friends. And now... I think, you should, I don't know, take some time, get your head together. Evan : My head is perfectly together. Casey : I didn't mean... Evan : No, no, no. I got it. You think I'm pathetic. Casey : Evan. Evan : I think we're done here. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’ room Ashleigh : I hope I can work this out. I really need to buy Casey a pick-me-up present. My God! I've been on hold for so long this techno version of to Joy is starting to sound catchy. Calvin : You could always just return everything instead. I mean, Ashleigh. Do you really need this tnk? Ashleigh : First, I love that you know the term tnk. And second, yes. Calvin : Ashleigh. Ashleigh : What? I'm gonna work out a payment plan, and everything will be fine. Hello! Yes! So I spent a little more than I planned, and my card was declined, so I just... Really? You can? That's great! Thank you! Calvin : That was quick. Did they you on a payment plan? Ashleigh : Nope, they upped my credit limit. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Frannie : Hey, what are you doing? Casey : Learning how to take a pair of leather jodhpurs from runway to reality. Frannie : Don't you have that Harvard meeting at noon? Casey : The meeting Evan set up? No thanks. I'd rather wear leather jodhpurs. Frannie : Seriously, sweetie, you cannot blow off that meeting. Casey : Sure, I can. It's Evan-tainted now. Frannie : Who cares about Evan's taint? Yes, he did something creepy, and I totally support you wanting to stay miles away from him. But this Harvard meeting is about your life, not his. CRU - Interview Man : You seem to have a good head on your shoulders. I'd say if your scores keep improving, and you fill your resume out a bit, you've got a good sh*t. So do you have any more questions for me? Casey : No, I think that's it. You've been very helpful. I'm so glad we did this. Man : All right. Then I have a question for you. Let's assume you get in... to Harvard, or someplace else. That's just the beginning. I want to know what it is about the law that's exciting to you. Why do you, Casey Cartwright, want to be a lawyer? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Geez, Dale. It really weirds me out when you do that. Dale : Sorry. Come in! Casey : Hi, Dale. Dale : Hi, Chelsea. Sorry, it's Casey, right? Chelsea was my ex-girlfriend. That I had. Casey : Actually, I wanted a word with Rusty. Dale : Yeah. Sure. You guys go ahead. I... I was actually gonna head out, go to the gym for a little bit. Been working out, you know, just for me. You know, for summer. Casey : Those space pajamas don't look sweat-proof. Rusty : So why are you here? Casey : No one else will understand this. You're the only person I could think of who's known what they want to do with the rest of your life since they were in diapers. Rusty : It was actually pre-school. We made these pinhole cameras, checking out a solar eclipse, and I had this kind of "a-ha" moment. Which you probably had about law school sometime, too, right? Casey : Except that it wasn't my "a-ha" moment. It was Evan's. Rusty : I don't get it. Casey : Being Miss "A-ha-Less," it was easier to follow Evan's path. So easy that, after a while, I forgot I was following anyone at all. Unfortunately, I didn't figure that out until the Harvard dean of admissions asked me why I want to be a lawyer, and I had to say, "Because of my ex-boyfriend." Rusty : Well, if there's one thing that I've learned, it's that living someone else's life is never a good idea. Casey : Everyone in that LSAT class knew exactly what they wanted, from where they would go to law school to what kind of lawyer they would be. And it turns out, I know exactly what I want, too. I know what kind of law I want to practice. None. Rusty : So what now? Casey : Now... we do not mope. We go back to ZBZ, make slice-and-bake cookies and eat the whole pan. Are you in? Rusty : I'm in. Not that jacket.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x21 - Barely Legal"}	foreverdreaming
CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Can you pick up my mail while you're... You're packing? Dale : It's spring break. Why would I not be? Rusty : I assumed that you were gonna be sticking around campus. Dale : I need a break. I'm not a machine, contrary to what my academics imply. So while you're submerged in surf, sand and sin with your fraternity brothers in South Carolina, I am gonna be engaged in something far less reckless in Virginia. Rusty : You're... I have no idea. Dale : Wild turkey hunting with my family. Rusty : klling turkeys is safer than going to the beach? Dale : Are you familiar with the dangers of spring break? Drunken injury? Pregnancy? Parasailing gone awry? Rusty : What about the people injured or klled while hunting? Dale : They're just morons. Rusty : This is spring break. This is the most sacred of college traditions. Why waste that on your parents? Do something with your friends, like take a road trip to warmer weather. Dale : As if it ever gets that cold here. Rusty : Have fun klling turkeys. Dale : Have fun perpetuating stereotypes of wasted, reckless, youth. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : Two minutes, girls. And windows... Check. The house is officially ready for lockdown, which means in two minutes I am officially on spring break! I can feel the weight of my presidential duties lifting from my shoulders. Ashleigh : Could you put it on my suitcase? Casey : We're going to Myrtle Beach for a week, not a year-long expedition to Mars. Ashleigh : I have to bring everything Teresa bought me. Casey : Teresa ? Ashleigh : Teresa Visa. She's very generous. Casey : But your card is a Credit Plus. Ashleigh : I know, but nothing cute rhymes with Credit Plus. There! Think this will fit in your car? Casey : Lucky for you, I packed light. All I need is sunscreen, a sarong and an iPod filled with beach music. I'm leaving the rest of my baggage behind: literally and figuratively. Ashleigh : No Jimmy Buffet. We have plenty of time to listen to him when we are old and sad. Casey : No Buffet. No ex-boyfriends. No Zeta Beta business. Most of all, no worrying about the gaping hole that is my future. I plan to flirt with boys and check things off the spring break list. Ashleigh : Oh my god, where did you find this? Casey : In my old beach towel. Remember when we made these freshman year? Ashleigh : We were such wide-eyed spring break virgins. Casey : There are still things on here. I'd like to finish it. Ashleigh : Like what? Casey : Playing a drinking game, entering a contest and skinny dipping. Ashleigh : Casey Cartwright gone wild! Casey : It's time. Let's go, let's go! Spring break awaits! Five... Four... Three... Two... One...Lift off! Credits CRU - Street Cappie : Spitter. Hurry up! You're wasting valuable party time! Get in here! Bus to Myrtle Beach Cappie : Welcome aboard. We know you have many choices in travel and we thank you for choosing KT Air. Rusty : I love this bus. Cappie : It has taken the Kts to Myrtle Beach for 32 spring breaks in a row. It is a legend. Pledge Cartwright will be serving chips and fries in the main cabin. And this bus makes only five stops and five stops only for gas. Rusty : What about...? Cappie : Only for gas. Rusty : So cool. Cappie : Come on, come on. Are we there yet? Beaver : Wait for me! MYRTLE BEACH - Hotel Receptionist : Final answer! Casey : Excuse me. Hi, we're checking in. Receptionist : Welcome to the Yacht House Inn, where your vacation is shipshape. How may I help you? Casey : Reservation under ZBZ, CRU Chapter. Receptionist : Two rooms for the week. Enjoy. I said: "Final answer!" Casey : I think there's been a mistake. We have five rooms reserved. Receptionist : No you don't. Ashleigh : We'll take three more rooms, please. And you can put it on the card. Receptionist : We're sold out, suge. I don't know if you've heard, but it's spring break. Rebecca : Connie? We'd like some ice in my room, please, and a few extra towels. Receptionist : Yes. Miss Logan. Casey : Rebecca, you're here. Rebecca : And so are you, finally. Casey : How did you bat us? Mandi : We took her father's jet and it was awesome! Rebecca : And Daddy's travel staff booked us this huge suite. You should come up to our floor later. Casey : Rebecca, wait up. There's been a minor snafu with our reservation. Would you and the pledges be willing to share your rooms with us sisters? After all, nobody wanna sleep on the floor. Rebecca : Actually we're going to use this week to bond as a pledge class. Having sisters in the room would change the dynamic, so... Casey : No problem, little sis. Who plans on sleeping anyway? MYRTLE BEACH – Motel Rusty : Check out this dingy motel. This is even dingier than I imagined. Ben Bennett : Was that a...? Rusty : It was a car backfiring, probably. Beaver : Whoever wants to ht downtown, we're leaving “ahora”! Isn't this place great? Only $199 a night! Rusty : Has anyone seen my bag? MYRTLE BEACH – Party Ashleigh : Coming through! Watch the outfit! That's a brand-new flip... flop. Man : Sorry. I've got these giant clown feet that aren't always under my control. Ashleigh : Giant feet. Man : How about let my flip flop make it up to yours. Ashleigh : How did you... do that? Man : It's my secret wapon. Double-fisting tonight, huh? Ashleigh : Just single-fisting. I mean, I'm single. Just an FYI. Man : I hope to see you around. Ashleigh : You will. Casey : Where have you been? That beer run was more of a marathon. Ashleigh : I just met the man I'm going to molest. He is crazy gorgeous super generous. He opened our beers with his shoe. Man : What's up? Casey : So who is he? Where's he from? Ashleigh : No clue! That is the great thing about spring break! All new boys to play with. Casey : Please tell me it's not the guy in the doo-rag. I know how you love men with accessories. Ashleigh : Where the hell is he? Casey : I'm sure he's around here somewhere. He's like Bigfoot. Ashleigh : He's the Hot Ness Monster. Evan : This is a party! It's great, huh? Calvin : It's like an Omega Chi party, only with less clothes. Evan : And that, my friend, that is the beauty of spring break. Calvin : Wow. Some pretty chilly body language. Evan : Yeah. Well. I think I'm ready for a new conversation. Frannie : Happy spring break, Evs. Evan : Right back at ya, Frannie. Calvin : Keep moving. Nothing to see here. Rebecca : Wishing you'd taken the jet? Cappie : Miss Beaver moon a state trooper? Never. Our spring break pilgrimage is a sacred tradition. Rebecca : If you want a ride home, the skies are very friendly. Cappie : Miss Logan, you're putting my tray table in its upright position. Rebecca : Let's go for a walk on the beach. Cappie : But I was gonna meet the boys out. We're gonna go to a bar with all-you-can-drink beer for $5. Rebecca : You spent all day with 'em on the bus. Cappie : It's happy hour. You should come with us. Rebecca : Look around. We've got you, me, the moon, sand, surf. Pretty romantic, huh? Cappie : Spring break's for being rowdy, not romantic. Rebecca : Our romance is often rowdy. Cappie : I guess I can take a little stroll. Rebecca : Great! I'll grab my jacket. Cappie : I'll grab a beer. Cappie : Well, Well, Well. If it isn't President Cartwright. Casey : Actually, it isn't. Tonight I'm just Spring Break Cartwright. Cappie : With patented dual beer grip. Casey : A gift. Cappie : Thank you. I love gifts. Casey : Enjoy. I've got to get going. We're playing Thumper. Cappie : A drinking game? With your gag reflex? Casey : It's on my spring break list. Cappie : Blast from the past. You gonna pierce your belly button? Casey : Once was enough, thank you. I'm just tackling some unfinished business. Like Thumper. You in? Cappie : You might wanna find an easier target. Casey : Is anyone easier than you? Cappie : How I would love to prove you wrong, but I promised a walk on the beach. Casey : Very romantic. Rebecca : Am I interrupting something? Casey : Not at all. Enjoy your walk. Ben Bennett : Maybe we can spend two hours. Rusty : Think of how far we've come. Ben Bennett : I just want to dance it out. Man : I need to see Ids. Ben Bennett : What? I'm a really good dancer. Get ready. Man : Chad Stewart? The musician? Pickle : Hey, Spitter ? Isn't that you? Maybe, we can say that guy stole your ID. We'll totally back you up. Rusty : What are the odds? I can't go in now. Ben Bennett : We'll just go somewhere else. Rusty : It's OK. I'm gonna go back to the motel. I'll rest up for tomorrow night, I'm gonna go bananas! Man : Ids, please. Evan : Look at that line. There's no way we're waiting in this line. Ladies. Hello. So we are looking for someone to buy drinks for. MYRTLE BEACH – On the Beach Cappie : Blueberry barnacle with a vita-boost, please. Thank you. I don't know what I was thinking. That was at least 50 yards or something. This shirt does not work. Sorry I missed you last night. Did you and the pledges get rowdy? You OK? Rusty : Just a little asthma flair-up. Cappie : If you need anything, let me know. Rusty : Will do. Cappie : Healthy. Cheers. On the phone. Rusty : Hey. Casey : Are you in Myrtle? Are you having fun? Rusty : Things are fine. I'm just sitting on the beach. Just relaxing from a full night of partying. Casey : Are you using your inhaler? Rusty : No. Casey hangs up. Casey : You're so using your inhaler. Liar. Rusty : Fine. I'm using my inhaler. Casey : I meant about you having fun. Rusty : I just kind of expected this to be kinda the most amazing time of my life. Casey : It's the New Year's Eve Syndrome. It can't always live up to the hype. I blame the media. Rusty : I've been up since 4am, when the rest of the pledges got home from that club that I couldn't get into because of stupid Chad Stewart. Casey : Who's Chad Stewart? Rusty : I have no clothes. I have no travel guide. And, for some reason, my stupid asthma's back. But the worst should be behind me, huh? Casey : Are you wearing sun block? Casey : Any spottings? Ashleigh : The Hot Ness Monster is an elusive beast. Rebecca : What do you think, Mandi. Over there? Mandi : Prime real estate. Rebecca : That'll do, thank you. Casey : Tropical Storm Rebecca. I slept in the bathtub because of her, and now she's ruining our boy view. Why can't she get over it? Ashleigh : Have you ever considered she might be thrat by you? Casey : Why? She's the senator's daughter with the invisible jet. Ashleigh : Because you're Zeta Beta president. You're beautiful. Casey : Go on. Ashleigh : You're the ex-girlfriend to a certain Cappie, with whom you looked pretty chummy last night. Girl : Hey Sping-breakers ! In about five minutes, we start the sand castle contest. Winners get free drinks at Club Paradox! Rebecca : Whatever. Casey : Cappie and I are finally friends. Truly. I'm over him. Just like I'm over drama, remember? Which means I'm not gonna let this beached whale get me depressed. Let's go build a sand castle! Ashleigh : I don't want to get my bikini wet. Display purposes. Casey : Oh, come on. Entering a contest is on my list. Evan : You seem to not be enjoying the parade of possibility. Calvin : It's not really my kind of parade, you know? Evan : We could go to the gay bar around here. They have cages. Calvin : That was a lot of information. Evan : When Casey and I came down here our hm* year, she wanted to go... She heard they had cages you could dance in. So we went. Calvin : Thanks for the offer, but I'm not looking for a guy. I miss the one I already have. You remember when you're so excited about someone you want to spend every moment with them to make up for the time you're not together. I'm sorry. Evan : No, that's all right. Girl : You up for some volleyball? Evan : Absolutely. What do you think? It'll be fun. Calvin : I don't know. Girl : Well, my friend thinks you're cute. Calvin : Yeah. No. You go. Have fun. Evan : Are you sure? Calvin : Go on. Cell Phone is ringing. Hey. Michel. MYRTLE BEACH – Bus Stop Cappie : You're sure you have to go? Rusty : Honestly, I totally forgot that I have this project due or my polymeric materials class. It's due on the Monday we get back. Damn the competive world of polymer science. Cappie : Don't be too hard on yourself. You can't win 'em all. Travel safe, Spitter. I got you a little gift for the road. I'll see you next week. Rusty : No way. MYRTLE BEACH – On the beach Cell Phone is ringing. Rebecca : Hello. This is she. Man : I'm calling from The Washington Post. Rebecca : No, thank you.I don't need a subscription. She hangs up. Cell Phone is ringing. Rebecca : Look. I'm in college. I have no need for a newspaper. Man : Actually, this isn't about a subscription. A matter we'd like to talk to you about if you have a couple moments. Casey : Isn't this fun? I haven't built a sand castle since I was 12. Back when my biggest burden was having to play with Rusty. Ashleigh : I just wish there wasn't all this sand. It lingers in places long after you leave the beach. I think the Hot Ness Monster has breeched the surface. Casey : Go get him! Cappie : I got it! Casey : Hey. Cappie : Sorry about that, Case. Can I give you a hand? Casey : Actually, I could use a torso. Cappie : Lucky for you, I'm well-versed in torsos. Casey : You sure you have time? Rebecca's not planning another walk on the beach? Cappie : I've got all the time in the world. As long as we're done by five. She booked us a banana boat ride. Casey : A banana boat? You? Cappie : I'm man enough to ride a giant yellow phallus. Besides, it's her first spring break. I vaguely remember you riding one your freshman year. Casey : It was the first thing I crossed off my list. I guess it's the circle of life. Cappie : It's really good to see you so... relaxed. You're like your old self again. Casey : Thanks Cap. Cappie : But your mermaid is in dire need of a breast augmentation. I'll be right back. Cappie : Rebecca. Wait up. Rebecca : Hey Cap. Cappie : Where are you headed? Rebecca : Back to my room. Thought I'd take a nap. Cappie : Want some company? Rebecca : Go, have fun. Cappie : Are you OK? Rebecca : Why wouldn't I be? BUS Rusty : Excuse me. Bus driver : Folks, just got off with dispatch. We should have another bus to take us back in about six hours. Thanks very much. Rusty : Hey, Calvin. Where are you going? Calvin : Gotta be a town up ahead. I was gonna head over and find a car. Rusty : Can I go with you? Calvin : Suit yourself. MYRTLE BEACH - Party Omega Chi guy : I think we need another round. Evan : I'll go get them. Girl : Let us contribute something. Evan : What are you gonna contribute? Evan : Thank you for your contribution. Girl : You're welcome. Evan : I'll get the drinks. What's up? Frannie : This place is wild! Evan : Look how packed it is. Frannie : I bet you've met a majority of the female population. Evan : You wanna come hang out with us? Frannie : No thanks. You go have fun. MYRTLE BEACH – Rent Car Calvin : I need to rent a car, please. Just one-way to Cyprus, Ohio. Woman : I need to see your driver's license and a major credit card. Rusty : When did you get your own credit card? Woman : I'm sorry. You gotta be at least 21 years of age to rent an automobile in the state of North Carolina. Calvin : I can die for my country but I can't rent a car? Woman : I've heard that one before. I'm sorry, the law's the law. Rusty : I'll get it. Woman : And this is faker than my hair color. There's no way on God's green earth that you're 24. Rusty : I am. My name is Chad Stewart. I live at 2343 Homer Terrace. Woman : What color are your eyes? Rusty : What color? Woman : That's what I thought. I'm gonna need to confiscate this. Rusty : Take it. It's cursed or something. Calvin : When did you get a fake ID? Rusty : We shouldn't have left the bus. Calvin : This isn't my fault. I didn't invite you to join me. Rusty : I didn't want to let you walk off in the dark alone. Calvin : I feel so much safer now that you're here. Rusty : You're on your own. I'm gonna get my own ride home. Calvin : Just how I wanted it. MYRTLE BEACH - Party Ashleigh : Your target is about six-foot-two, brown hair, dreamy eyes. And he's got a bottle opener in his flip-flop. Casey : Could you be a little more specific? Ashleigh : Check your phones. Yesterday, I got close but was thwarted by a rogue football game. Luckily, I was close enough to snap a cell phone pic. I've texted it to each of you. Casey : This is just a blob. Ashleigh : A hot blob, and we must find him. But be warned, he's elusive. So if you spot him, pin him down and text me immediately. Casey : Are you sure...? Ashleigh : There's no time! Casey : Hey, Cap. Have you seen this blob? Cappie : Maybe it's hanging out with Rebecca somewhere. Casey : Birds of a feather... Cappie : I can't find her. She missed the banana boat. Casey : I wouldn't worry too much. Rebecca's a big girl. Man : It's time for the event you've all been waiting for. Let's hear it for our spring break wet T- shirt contestants! Cappie : I might be able to take a break for a sec. Recharge. All : We want boobs! Cappie : No, you don't! What the hell are you doing? Rebecca : I'm gettin'rowdy! Cappie : Get down from there. Man : Set those glorious mounds free! Cappie : Mounds? Really? Man : Fine. Almond Joys! Casey : You need to get down. Get down from there. You're making a scene. Rebecca : Big sis is pissed. You gonna tell my parents? News flash: what I do on spring break is none of your business. Casey : It is when you're wearing ZBZ letters. Rebecca : Fine, I'll take them off. Man : Let me get my camera first. Cappie : You're seriously doing this? This is really beneath you. Rebecca : Beneath me? You know what's beneath me? Cappie : Don't do this. Not right now, please. Rebecca : You're beneath me. Man : Whenever you're ready. Rebecca : You can't even get over your ex-girlfriend. Casey : Don't bring me into this. Rebecca : You've always been in this. And you always will be. Man : Maybe you should get up there, too. Casey : Yeah. No. Rebecca : My only regret: wasting the last four months on you. Cappie : Stop acting like a spoiled daddy's girl who didn't get her way. It's a cliché. Rebecca : You know what? We're done. Consider this our spring breakup. Man : Don't go! You chased the boobs away! Casey : Are you OK? Omega Chi guy : Man, where have you been? Evan : What? I made some new friends. Omega Chi guy : Friends? As in plural? You guys, Chambers is on a roll! Evan : All right, settle down. What's going on? You guys going to the condo? Omega Chi guy : What are you, my grandpa? We're going to Paradox. There's no way I'm going back to that club tonight. Frannie : Wanna raid the vending machine? Evan : Sounds so good. Let's go. BACK ROAD – Dale’s car Rusty : I'm sorry you had to drive all this way. You can take us to the nearest bus station if you want. Dale : I'll drive you guys back to Cyprus. No big deal. Rusty : What about the hunting trip with your parents? Dale : My mom's been hitting the fring range pretty hard, has developed quite an ego. Do you wanna tell your side of the story first? Rusty : Not really. We've got four more hours to go, It's been a long day. Let's get back to school. Dale : All right. Anybody hungry? I got some turkey jerky in the trunk. Calvin : I'm starving. Rusty : Did you kll it? Dale : Does it matter? Hey, Calvin. You wanna jump out and find that jerky bag? Calvin : Trunk food. I don't see anything back here. Dale : It's back there. Would you go help him? Rusty : There's really nothing back here. Dale : I'm not letting either one of you jokers back in until you work out your issues. MYRTLE BEACH – On the Beach Casey : You feeling better? Cappie : Feels like my brain is taking clogging lessons. Casey : I was worried about you. You got ht hard. Cappie : And then the drunk guy punched me. Casey : Do you have any idea why she...? Cappie : Can we not talk about Rebecca? Please It was awkward enough before all this. Casey : You know what, you're right. We're on spring break! We get to spend an entire week on the beach with our best friends. There's only one more of these... Cappie : One more? Speak for yourself. Casey : And they kick us out into the harsh reality of 40-hour work weeks. Cappie : Forty hours? Wake up, Mary Tyler Moore. Try 80. In cubicles. With two weeks vacation. By the way, did I tell you I'm switching my major? Anatomy was fun but less hands-on than I expected. Casey : I'm sorry, Cap. Cappie : About what? The fact that I don't have a "plan"? Casey : About the fact that I judged you for it. I was wrong. Cappie : What has gotten into you? Casey : What do you mean? Cappie : You're so nice and carefree and beach-babe beautiful. I feel like I'm in a tampon commercial. Casey : That's because in four days I have to go back to school figure out what I wanna do with the rest of my life. Cappie : What about that ten-year plan? Casey : Let's just say I copied off of someone's else's paper. And now I don't know what I'll be doing in ten minutes. I'm staring out into the... vast empty ocean that is my future. Casey : Feels good, doesn't it? Casey : It does. And it feels... terrifying. They kiss. BACK ROAD – Dale’s car Rusty : Please unlock the doors. Dale : No can do, buddy. Not until you two make amends. Calvin : Look either turn off the music or leave us out here to die. Rusty : The scary thing is I actually knew the words to that song. Look. I just wished you would have at least called after the prank wr thing. Calvin : Do you want to know why I didn't? Because I was mad. You made me feel like the bad guy because I chose to stay with OC and the friends I have there. Rusty : Like Evan Chambers? Calvin : When I was outed and was gonna quit the fraternity, Evan asked me to trust him and I did. He hasn't let me down yet. Rusty : Well, what about me? I was the first person that you came out to, remember? Doesn't that count? Calvin : It does, but you're demonizing a fraternity full of people I like... Rusty : It's hard to have a rational point-of-view of people when they're duct-taping you to the side of a building. Calvin : What about your fraternity? Rusty : The Kts are such good guys because they're laid back and aren't ambitious? When did ambition become such a terrible attribute? Dale : I think in the eighties. Rusty : You know, maybe they're right. Maybe you just can't have friends who are in rival houses. Dale : This is the officially the dumbest thing I've ever heard. If your stupid houses are so important, why are both of you here now instead of down at Sinner's Beach? You've gotta stop putting your houses before everything else in your life. Before your schoolwork, before your roommate and before each other. Think you can do that? Rusty : We can agree we were both wrong. Calvin : I'd say there was plenty of fault on both sides. Rusty : I'm sorry. Calvin : Sunburn. Dale : The Three Musketeers are back! MYRTLE BEACH - Party Betsy : Take me home! I'm Betsy! Ashleigh : You sure are. Loud and proud. Betsy : I'm so glad that we're sisters! Ashleigh : We really need to get you a boyfriend so he can manage these moments. Betsy : You're so soft! Ashleigh : He's here. I smell him. Betsy : No, that might have been my chili dog. Ashleigh : I'm gonna come right back here and be disgusted by that comment. But right now I need to run find someone. So here, meet my friend, Mr. Lifeguard Stand. Betsy : I liked you on Baywatch. MYRTLE BEACH - Hotel Cappie : Here we are. Back at the hotel. You think you might wanna...? Casey : I don't think that's a good idea. You've suffered head trauma. Besides, there are ten people sleeping in my room. Cappie : I was going to say get some breakfast. Casey : That sounds nice. Let me go get my purse. TV breaking news : Ohio senator Ken Logan, known for his strong stance on family values, has been implicated in a sweep of a high-end prostitution ring. As the nation reacts to the scandal, we'll have all the latest... Cappie : Case... Casey : Go. She needs you. Cappie : About tonight... Casey : It was nothing. "Kissing a boy on the beach" was 11 on my list. Thanks for the help. MYRTLE BEACH - Café Evan : I'm starting to feel human again. Frannie : Processed food will do that for some reason. Evan : I kinda feel like you've been bl*wing me off the past couple of days. Frannie : Not at all. You had a lot of things you need to... do this weekend. Evan : You pushed me to be more assertive, and go after what I want. Frannie : Sorry things didn't work out with you and Casey... Evan : I'm not. They kiss. Frannie : I'm... not looking to be another notch in the Myrtle Beach belt. Warm body rule applies even here. Evan : I've had plenty of warm bodies. Frannie : Million-dollar question: Are you doing this because... you want to be with me or because you wanna get back at Casey? Evan : Both. Million-dollar question: Are you going to do this because you want to be with me or because you want to be with Evan Chambers? Frannie : Both. MYRTLE BEACH - Hotel Rebecca : Cap. Cappie : It doesn't matter now. I heard about your dad. Rebecca : They didn't even call me. I found out from a reporter. MYRTLE BEACH – On the beach Ashleigh : What a night. Casey : You can say that again. Care to explain the flip flop? Ashleigh : It's proof that the Hot Ness Monster does exist. And it gives me hope that I might see him again. Casey : He made quite an impression. Ashleigh : Do you think it's possible to meet someone and just feel they're your soulmate? Casey : Yes. But I have to believe that we have many soulmates. If not, the world has a twisted sense of humor, right? Ashleigh : What happened tonight? Casey : I was on a search mission for your monster when I ran into... You know what, no. I'm not gonna tell this story. You've heard it a million times anyway. Ashleigh : But it sounds important. Casey : What's important is... I'm watching a beautiful sunrise with my best friend. Ashleigh : No matter what, we'll remember this moment forever. Casey : You know what would make it even more memorable? If we were naked. Ashleigh : Didn't see that coming. Casey : It's the only thing left on my spring break list. Skinny dipping. Wanna? Please. Ashleigh : Let's do it. Man 1 : Dude, naked chicks! Man 2 : You thinking what I'm thinking?	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "01x22 - Spring Broke"}	foreverdreaming
CYPRUS RHODES' CAMPUS Rusty: Greek Week's a bigger deal than I'd imagined. Calvin: Yeah, it's the biggest Greek-on-Greek competition of all. Rusty: Well, if our friendship's going to be tested anywhere, it's here. Which is why we are... Both Calvin and Rusty: Switzerland. Rusty: Cappie swears by their method of neutrality in dealing with Rebecca vs Casey. Calvin: Look, we survived six hours being trapped in Dale's car listening to Amy Grant, all right? Together we can withstand anything. Rusty: When he busted out the Christmas collection, you were... Calvin: I was ready to launch myself out a window. But I would've thrown you out first. Rusty: Now that's friendship. * Presenter: Welcome everyone to the 63rd Annual Greek Week Olympiad! I now give you the Parade of Houses. Alpha Sigma Rho. Beta Theta Tau. Heath: Where is he? Wade: I don't know. Where is it? Cappie: I don't know. Presentator: Gamma Psi Alpha. Cappie: Spitter! Evan: Pledge Owens! Rusty: Time to cross the border. Calvin: We'll always have Zurich! * Casey: We are so going to win again, I can practically taste our victory! Ashleigh: And what does it taste like? Casey: Cheesecake miraculously devoid of calories. Ashleigh: I don't know the Gamma Psi Alphas are looking pretty scary-buff this year.They've all have Madonna arms from doing power yoga. Casey: I will not be the first ZBZ president in ten years to give up this trophy. We are winners and cementing our winning status is going to be the cornerstone of my presidential campaign. I plan to be the legitimate, elected president of ZBZ. I am no Gerald Ford! Frannie taught me that one. But I don't want to get too confident. I must first focus on a Greek Week victory. Even the Ice Queen looks melty. Think about it: We escaped Myrtle unscathed by Logangate '08. Ashleigh: She looks so perky. Seriously, if my Dad did that... Casey: I don't care how she acts as long as the only perky thing she shows off this week is her attitude. Presentator: And our reigning sorority champions, Zeta Beta Zeta. This week's Greek Olympiad events include the Tug of wr, Powder Puff Sorority Football game, the Human Pyramid, the Fraternity Cheerleading Contest, the Ultimate Relay Race... Cappie: Just look at the spectacle. This is even better than the ice-skating cows, Torino opening ceremonies, 2006. Wade: Cap's a big fan of the Olympics. Cappie: More than a fan. I'm an Olympic historian. Presentator: The reigning fraternity champions, Omega Chi Delta! Cappie: You know, the insurance salesmen convention's a few hundred miles to the left, in Toledo! Evan: Take a good look at that trophy. It'll be your only chance to see it up close. Cappie: I thought it was your Oscar for Best Actress in a Supporting Role, Evan-gelina Jolie. Evan: Laugh it up now. You guys are gonna be crying like little girls when we're done with you. Cappie: Like you cried when we bat you in beer pong? Evan: I was thinking mire like when we kicked your asses at floor hockey. Cappie: Hey, you won on a technicality. But since I'm so generous, we'll call it a draw. Greek Week is the tie-breaker. Evan: Yes, it is. * Frannie: Hey, Case, do you think later this afternoon we could talk? Gamma Psi Alpha sorority girl (Janette): Oh my God! That is Rebecca Logan! Rebecca: What? GPA sorrority girl: Pledge gone wild at spring break. Casey: Oh-oh, I think we have a code pink situation here. The miracle cheesecake just got fattening. Presenter: In the spirit of Greek unity, I hereby declare open the Greek Games of Cyprus Rhodes University! Credits * Dobler's * Cappie: You sure you wanna stay here? Rebecca: Why should I bury my head in the sand because certain people without lives resort to Internet voyeurism in a pathetic attempt to justify their existence? [Silence] So, did you see the video? Cappie: Yeah, too bad they missed the part where I got punched in the face. Rebecca: Hey, I told you how sorry I am about all that. Cappie: You were drunk and the whole thing with your dad, I get it. It's water over the bridge, under the dam, whatever. And the same with the video. Everyone is gonna be bored with it by tomorrow. Rebecca: Not according to my dad. Cappie: You called him? Rebecca: No. He called me. And instead of apologizing for bringing our dirty little family secrets out in the open, he had the nerve to discipline me. For whatever damage this video may cause his situation. "Lay low. Ride out the storm." He always uses clichés. He's a politician, after all. Cappie: Your dad's delivery was lame, but you know, maybe he has a point. Keep your head down, focus on Greek Week and the Zbzs. Give your sisters a chance. You might be underestimating them. Rebecca: Yeah, I'm gonna have to think about that one. Cappie: You know what, I could use another beer. You want anything? Rebecca: Actually, I've put in enough of an appearance. I'm gonna head back to the house, get some rest for the big week ahead. * Frannie: Maybe we can find a way to put her out of commission. Casey: Step away from the kneecap, Tonya Harding. I'm thinking we call her in front of the Standards Board for the spring break incident. Frannie: Right, Nip this in the kneecap now, because inevitably Nationals will see that video. Casey: And by then, we can tell them we've already handled it. I'd like to avoid another special guest star appearance from Tegan. Ashleigh: Yeah, she is a little scary. Really good hair, though. Frannie: Casey, I just have to say, I am so impressed with your presidential prowess. Casey: Thank you. Frannie: I'm gonna go check with Laura, make sure everyone has their spirit shirts. [Leaves the table]. Ashleigh: She's being more supportive than a pair of Spanx. Casey: Yeah. New, nice, de-clawed Frannie. * Evan: So, Capp', how's it feel to be dating an Internet star? Cappie: So, Ev's, how does it feel to be dating... nobody? Evan: Because I'm pretty sure just about everybody on campus has seen her in action by now. Cappie: Hey guys, did you know that one time Evan pooped his pants at Camp Kitchiwawa? Evan: Hey guys, did you realize when Cappie started dating Rebecca, he took my sloppy seconds? Cappie: Watch it, Bing, watch it! * Outside a theater * Rusty: Who knew Ben-Hur would be such a hot ticket? I can't believe we had to get these a day in advance. Dale was right. Calvin: Well, if you think about it, it is one of the few movies that has something for everyone: Jesus for Dale. Buff gladiators for me. Roman history for the more studious among us. And a leprosy subplot for- well really for everyone. Evan: Pledge Owens, you're consorting with the enemy? Calvin: Ha ha ha, very funny. Evan: Who says I'm joking? I am. Barely. But I do that assume if you're hanging out with this guy, you must be doing some re-con work on the Kts. Rusty: Yeah, he's trying to spy on the Kts to try and learn how not to be lame. Maybe you guys can learn a thing or two. Because you guys are lame. Evan: We're headed to the house to practice for the final relay. It's Greek Week. Calvin: Yeah, yeah, I'll be right behind you guys. Evan: All right. Calvin: Hey, we're cool, right? Rusty: Oh yeah we're cool. It's just one more test for Switzerland. * ZBZ's * Suzanne: The entirety of your ZBZ-emblazoned bosom was all over my computer screen. We absolutely do not want to demonstrate that this type of raunchy behavior is in any way indicative of ZBZ-ian values. Rebecca: Entirety of my bosom aside, it certainly looked like I was having fun, right? Maybe we could use this as a recruiting tool for rush. Suzanne:This violation warrants an immediate suspension. Casey: She's right. And we've called you here today because we should've punished you right after the Spring break incident occurred. But I was there, and we all understand how upset you were, and, well, everyone does things they don't plan to do. Especially over spring break. Suzanne: Just ask Betsy. She ended up with a one-way ticket to rehab. Casey: Bottom line, you violated ZBZ standards, and therefore we are fining you with 20 hours of sister service. Rebecca: Sister service? Casey: Sorority-centric community service. Rebecca: Yes, I know what it is. Instead of picking up highway trash, I get to, what, apply Laura's self-tanner? Lucky me. Casey: You are lucky. And you should be grateful we're going easy on you. You have to think about the sorority. So I strongly encourage you to lay low and ride out this storm. Trust me, it's for your own good. Rebecca: Right. * KT's * KT boy: I can't believe how sprightly those guys are. Rusty: We're gonna blow the Ocs out of the water! Ben: Those guys are such assfaces. Rusty: We should never take for granted how lucky we are to be in a house whose brothers have their priorities straight. Because of instead of controlling jerks like the Omega Chis, the Kts know what really matters is friendship. And fun. Cappie: Pledges! I present to you this year's Greek Week Powder Puff cheer squad: The Kappa Tau Hotties. Formation, formation! KTs (dressed up as cheerleaders): We heard you caught a chill Well, we're here to warm you up. We call ourselves the hotties And we're gonna win that cup Cappie: Yeah! A special shout-out to my man Heath, whose 15-year-old sister taught us that little gem. Which, I'm sure you will agree, is gonna help us win the Powder Puff cheer-off. * Calvin: Hey Cappie, Is a... Rusty around? Cappie: Why? Why do you want to know? Rusty: We're gonna go see a movie. Cappie: Is that so? Rusty: Uh yeah. We're in really good shape with the human wheelbarrow. Ben and I are very sprightly. What's going on? Cappie: Calvin is an Omega Chi. You are a Kappa Tau. It's Greek Week. The twain does not meet Rusty. It never shall. Rusty: What, are you doing an impression of Evan Chambers? Ha ha... Cappie: No ha. Look at me. I'm deadly serious. Don't look at my outfit.Look at me. See? Serious. [To Calvin] Sorry Cal, nothing personal. Double air-kiss for Evan Lame-bers, though. [To Rusty] Go back to work. Go on. * ZBZ's Ashleigh: All my lip-synchers, practice, stat! Casey: Friday is red T- shirt day Laura. Today, we wear our yellow spirit shirts. Laura: But yellow makes my skin look diseased. Casey: Don't blame the shirt for that and look to your foundation. Put on a yellow T-shirt. The shirts are an easy way to earn spirit points. Especially because, for obvious reasons, the Mu Gamma Sigs are heavily favored to take gold in Powder Puff Football. Ashleigh: Ok, let's get into formation. Abs in, lips relaxed. Frannie: Can I have a private word real quick? Casey: [Answering her phone] Allo? What? Where? Ok, I'll be right there. Campus security. [To Frannie) Hum, we'll talk as soon as I get back. Frannie: Ok, take your time. You deserve it, you hard-working little president, you! * On campus Casey: Oh God! Cappie: Nope, just me. But thanks. Casey: Cappie, What are you doing here? Cappie: I got a call from Rebecca. Casey: I got a call from campus security. [To both drunk Rebecca and Mandi] What's wrong with you? Cappie: Officer Huck. On Coast Guard duty tonight? Where are your water wings? Officer Huck: Mr Cappie. I should've known you'd be a part of this kerfuffle. Rebecca: Hey! Cappie's my boyfriend! Cappie: Yes, he is. Now, let's get you dry. Casey: And back to ZBZ. Rebecca: Oh no thanks. Casey: Rebecca, I'm trying to help you. [To the officer] Officer Huck, I'm so sorry these pledges interrupted this... event. Officer Huck: This is not just any event. It's the president's private shindig for Greek alums coming to Greek Week. Including some elderly folk with delicate sensibilities and varying heart conditions. Mandi: Whatever! They looked bored. So we entertained them. Rebecca: And Mandi used to be the synchronized swimming champion of Western New Jersey! Mandi: I'm drowning. Rebecca: So I thought we'd use this for some of my sister-service hours! Casey: You've just earned a lot more of them. Cappie: Don't worry. I'll take her home. Come on. Not so fast. Rebecca: Don't worry, big sis, we took off our pledge pins. See? I laid low and rode out the storm. Cappie: Ok [taking Rebecca with him]. Casey: [to Mandi] Come on. Mandi: Bye Huck! *** Rusty and Dale's room Dale: There she goes. You know I really hope you guys appreciate this sign of solidarity to the Three Musketeers. Calvin: Oh I'm touched beyond words. Dale: Look away, Dixieland. All right. You guys ready to see some Chuck Heston, may he rest in peace? Rusty: Dale, you still have your VCR, right? Dale: Rusty, why would I need my VCR? We're going to see Ben-Hur in its original anamorphic widescreen with seat-rumbling sound and overpriced concessions. Calvin: Oh well, I bought some popcorn. Rusty: And uh, the video store didn't have it on DVD. Calvin: Yeah we thought it would be more fun to watch it here. Rusty: No noisy crowds to disturb the Three Musketeers. Dale: Rusty stop blwing smoke up my as...bottom. Rusty: Well, since it's Greek Week, the brothers aren't that comfortable with Calvin and I hanging out. Dale: So what? We're supposed to hide here in a dark room like lepers that we're not seeing on the big screen? Rusty: No, we're just laying low. It's our own private Switzerland. Dale: Switzerland? You mean the wusses that wouldn't stand up to the nzi? Rusty: We just want to conduct our friendship free from prying fraternity eyes this week. Dale: You know, we made a pact at spring break, OK? I just took down the Southern Cross. Calvin: Dale, we're pledges, OK? We have to do what the brothers tell us. Rusty: Yeah, we've lasted an entire year as pledges. We can't just blow it now when we have a few months left. So we do their laundry, we scrub the toilets and we just don't hang out during Greek Week. Dale: Do you guys really think the brothers are gonna stop caring about who you hang out with once you're actives? I mean, yeah, today it's Greek Week. But then it's next week, then it's the week after. And then Poland falls. * ZBZ's Casey: You know Ash, I had a very simple plan at the beginning of Greek Week:"To win". A simple, doable plan considering we've won Greek Week for the past ten years. But then Rebecca gets all Dirty Dancing... again. This time aquatically, and distracts me. And here I am wearing a red spirit shirt on green shirt day. Very unpresidential of me. And not at all befitting my "Zbzs are winners" election platform. Ashleigh: Meanwhile, Suzanne and the standards hyenas are dying to kick her out. Casey: I'm dying to kick her out! It's time to put Baby in the corner for good. She has got to be the worst pledge in the history of pledgedom. Including Jen K. and that legacy from last year who wore culottes and had that little mustache. Ashleigh: Thank God she deactivated. Casey: Seriously. The only reason Rebecca's stuck around as long as she has is because she's a senator's daughter, which is really doing nothing for anybody these days. But maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to get her out because I simply hate her. But then again, she has been going through a hard time. Ashleigh: And you did almost myrtle her boyfriend at spring break. Casey: Cappie and I, didn't even come close to myrtling. We kissed. Very briefly. Under the influence of spring break. Which we have since left behind, unlike someone I know. I caught you sniffing that thing yesterday. Ashleigh: Hot Ness. * Evan's room * Evan: If I don't have a problem with Casey and everyone else seeing us, then why should you? Frannie: Because I don't want to be hated at ZBZ, which I will be if Casey sees me as an enemy. I want it all, and the only way I can have it is if I can prove to Casey that I am still her friend and Big Sis. Before we tell her. Evan: Well, you've had a week. So hurry up. Or you're gonna have to find another cheerleader. Frannie: You're cute when you give ultimatums. Bye Eve's. * On campus * Presenter: And now, the Omega Chi Hotties! Cappie: Those sluts stole our cheer! * Casey: The Gamma Psi Alphas are looking pretty tough, huh? Ashleigh: Fortunately, some of our pledges have passed the Freshman 15 so we have a size advantage. Especially if Tammie leads with her hips. Casey: Maybe I could harness Rebecca's powers for good. To help us win Greek Week. Ashleigh: How would that work? Casey: You'll see. [To Rebecca] Look Rebecca, Hum, I've decided to overlook the fountain incident. For now. Don't take that out, the game's about to start! I know you're going through a hard time, and you need to blow off steam. So, on that note, how about you channel your frustrations in a positive way. No, leave it in. I can tell they're just about to start. Janette: Hey Rebecca, for my blog. And guess what? I found one of your dad's hookers online! She's trying for a music career. I especially loved her song Daddy's Girl. Casey: Ok now focus those feelings on the game and rip those little flags off that Gamma Psi Alpha quarterback! Go Zeta Beta Zeta! Gamma Psi #2: 1 Blue 42, pink 23. Hut one, hut two, hut! Rebecca: [Attacking Janette] Put that in your blog, bitch! Casey: That's it! I've tried to be nice. I've tried to be understanding that is it! I'm officially recommending your expulsion to the ZBZ standards board! Until then you are suspended from all ZBZ activities. You might as well start packing your bags. * KT's * Beaver: Remind me never to do the splits again. Cappie: It was a noble effort, Beav. Beaver: I had to try something new, otherwise it just looked like we were ripping off the omega chis. Cappie: It did, didn't it? It was like the battle of the carmens, ladies figure skating, calgary, 1988. The omega chi were Katarina Witt, sexy, powerful, Germanic and we were poor Debi Thomas, just biting it left and right. Wade: And to be fair, their cradle catch was much tighter than ours. Cappie: So Chambers and Co. Won. In the sneakiest way possible. And we're left with one lingering question. How, oh how, did they Steal our Cheer? Rusty: Yeah, no kidding! What? What is everyone looking at me for? Cappie: You're the only one who associates with the Omega Chis. Heath: Hey, I slept with Calvin last semester! Rusty: Wait a minute, what are you implying? Are you saying that I memorized the Cheer and taught it to Calvin in one day, all to sabotage my own house? Cappie: Absolutely not, Spitter. You are a loyal pledge. We know that. Rusty: OK, good. Cappie: But we also know that a fortress is only as strong as its weakest part. Rusty: Cap'! Cappie: You've been hanging out with Calvin. Maybe you happened to mention to him when we'd be practicing our Cheer. And since I'm sure the Omega Chi Cheer sucked, Calvin seized the opportunity to spy on us and Steal our sweet, sweet moves. Rusty: He came over to meet me for a movie. Cappie: That's what he told you. I'm not saying you did it it on purpose. For your protection and ours, I have to ask you to stay out the final competition. Rusty: The relay? You won't find anyone sprightlier. Cappie: We'll manage. I'm sorry, Spitter. * On campus * Casey: Hey, sourpuss. What's up? Rusty: My supposed brothers think I helped Calvin Steal our Cheer and give it to the Omega Chis. Cappie kicked me out of the relay race! I'm over this. I'm about to re-ignite usag. Casey: Sometimes a good president has to practice tough love. How do you know Calvin didn't steal the Cheer? Rusty: Casey, Calvin didn't steal the Cheer. Casey: Hey, it's greek week, all bets are off. Regardless, You're a pledge, and pledges are supposed to do what they're told. Rusty: I just don't understand why all the competitions are so important. I thought greek week was about unity. So whatever happened to the brotherhood, friendship, family? Casey: Oh, my god. You are such a boy scout! Rusty: Eagle scout. I made it to the eagle scout. Remember? Casey: Yes, I went to the ceremony. And you were such a tool, you earned more badges than anyone else. Rusty: That's a good point. Casey: That you were a tool? Rusty: Yeah. That you thought I was a tool, you found me annoying, but you still showed up to the ceremony. Because you're my sister. Casey: Mom and dad made me go. You knew that, right? Rusty: Which was the right thing to do, because no matter how much you and I find each other annoying, we're still a family. So underneath it all, we'll still trust and support each other. So why am I not seeing that support from my brothers at Kappa Tau? Casey: Because you're not a brother yet, you're a pledge. Rusty: Semantics. Casey: Call it what you want, but it's still your duty to be a good pledge. Rusty: What about being a good President? * Dobler's * Casey: I was right. It is called greek week. Not "personal drama week." So what's yours? Cappie: You're going to kick Rebecca out. Casey: And you banned Rusty from greek week. Cappie: Ok, it's not exactly the same thing. Casey: But, it's for a similar reason. And Rebecca was putting the ZBZ house at a much greater risk. Cap', I know you care about her. But honestly, Rebecca kind of asked for this. And I frankly don't even know why she's in a sorority. Do you? Because she seems to hate everything about it. Cappie: That's just her way. Her hostility and sporadic verbal abuse are endearing once you get to know her. Casey: I know her and I'm over it. Cappie: OK, look, Rebecca's in trouble. And I can't hold her together all by myself. Casey: You're stronger than you think. Not to mention Rebecca and I don't Even like each other. So why do you want me to help her? Cappie: Because she's your sister. If that's just empty crap to you, then why are you in a sority? Casey: For the parties. Why else? Cappie: Whatever you say, Case. * ZBZ's * Casey: Where's Suzanne? I need to talk to her about Rebecca before the standards... Ashleigh: Casey,look who's here! Casey: Tegan! Tegan: Casey. My little success story. Nationals thought you might need help with the Rebecca Logan problem. Politico offspring, never easy. So here I am! Ashleigh: Doesn't her hair look great? Tegan: Oh! That's so sweet. *** Later Tegan: Of course, like pretty much everyone else in America, we saw Rebecca's very special dance video from Spring Break. Ashleigh: [bringing water] Flat and French! Tegan: Great. Now we're not monsters. We know that Rebecca's been through a tough time. Casey: Right, right. And you know, if you've checked recently,the number of hits on Rebecca's video has gone way, way, way down. Ashleigh: Way down. Tegan: But Nationals' tolerance has reached its limit with the fountain fiasco and that little'roid rage asault on the football field. Casey: Wait, how did you hear about the fountain and the football? Tegan: Girls, we have eyes and ears everywhere. Boo! Kidding! About the "boo." Not about the eyes and ears. So, your Standards Chair informs me that you are planning to vote to expel her tonight. Casey: We were, but I've been thinking... Tegan: Things could get messy? Casey: Uh...Yes. Tegan: Well, I'm here to keep things clean. If the decision comes from Nationals, it could carry more weight. Invite less resistance. [Tegan winks at Casey]. If only we had more girls like you, Casey, ones who value standards, image and reputation. Now, where is that adorable little stain on our good name? Rusty and Dale's room * Rusty: Come in. Calvin: Hey. Just wanted to see how you were doing after the big cheertastrophe. The KTS looked pretty pissed. Rusty: Well, yeah, they think the Omega Chis stole the cheer. Calvin: Who's to say the Kappa Taus didn't steal the cheer from the Omega Chis? I mean, you know, The KTS aren't known for being the most prepared guys on the planet. Rusty: We got it from Heath's sister. She made it up. Calvin: We got it from O'Toole's sister. She made it up. Look, The Kts always... we're doing it. Rusty: I know we're doing it. Calvin: We said we weren't gonna do it. Dale: What have I come upon? Calvin: Nothing, Dale. We just almost chucked our friendship again over some stupid stolen cheer. Dale: Cheer? What cheer? Rusty: Some cheer that our friend Heath's sister thought of about hotties warming people up. Dale: Yeah? As in... "We heard you caught a chill Well we're here to warm you up. We call ourselves the hotties and we're gonna win that cup". That cheer? Rusty: How did you know that? Dale: It's from the 1998 film Cheer It Forward. It's a clean-cut tale of nubile, lightly-muscled young ladies, you know engaged in a friendly competion in the world of high-school cheerleading. It was followed in 2000 by a deeply-flawed sequel called Cheer It Backward. I've just seen bits and pieces on TV, you know. It's always on while I'm waiting for The 700 Club. I mean, I haven't seen the whole thing. It's not like I was a cheerleader in high school or anything you know. [While Rusty and Calvin left the room] They would never let guys on the team. No matter how talented they were. * ZBZ's * Rebecca: I'd like my packing privacy please. Casey: No time for barbed banter! Togan's waiting downstairs to kick you out! Rebecca: And you're here to, what, celebrate? Casey: I changed my mind, OK? I don't want you to go. Rebecca: You're serious? Casey: God help me but yes. I'll explain later. Right now we need to figure out what to say to Tegan so she'll let you stay. Ashleigh: She should definetely go humble. Casey: Groveling's essential. Ashleigh: And tell Tegan you like her hair! Rebecca: No! Ashleigh: Even if you don't really like her hair, just say it. Rebecca: I want you to explain why I should even care if she kicks me out. Ashleigh: Rebecca, this is a really good deal. Casey: I don't know. You tell me. Why did you even join in the first place? Rebecca: Why else? The parties. Casey: Right. That's why I joined, too. Or at least that's what I would've told anyone who asked. Because admitting the honest to God truth, "Hey,I'm Casey, scared and friendless freshman" would've been just too pathetic. So I rushed. And, as luck would have it, somewhere along the way, I discovered that I ended up with a family. Screwed up and dysfunctional, like every other family but a family nonetheless. And this family can include you if you want it to. Ashleigh: [crying] Sorry. Rebecca: Yeah, well, families suck. You don't have to worry about kicking me out. Because I quit. * Downstairs Tegan: Rebecca. Just the person I wanted to... Ashleigh: Rebecca! Tegan: Ashleigh! Casey? * Outside Ashleigh: My God, slow down. Tegan: Anyone? Ashleigh: I know Casey, and I know she meant what she said back there. Rebecca: Of course you'd say that. Casey's sidekick. Ashleigh: Stop it! Stop with the whole tough girl act! My God, I've been a friend to you, even when it was the last thing Casey wanted. And I get it. Your dad let you way down. But don't go down with him. Stop being a stupid senator's daughter and start being Rebecca Logan! Rebecca: Being a senator's daughter is the only reason ZBZ wanted me in the first place. Ashleigh: Yeah, well, things change. Fine! Leave! And I'm not Casey's sidekick! * KT's - night * Ben: [To Rusty] He's not nearly as sprightly as you are. Cappie: You here to fess up? Rusty: Nope. I just came to give you this. Cappie: Cheer It Forward, I've been meaning to catch this one. Rusty: The stolen cheer? It's from this movie. Apparently it's a popular movie for 15-year-olds like Heath's sister. And O'Toole's. And Dale. Cappie: I... Rusty: But before you apologize, I'd just like to say one thing. I'm a really good pledge. And you know it. For the past seven months, I have scrubbed the toilets, I have done your most questionable laundry, and I even let Wade throw up into my hands one time. And I will continue to do so, if that is what you tell me to do. Cappie: Well...thank you? Rusty: But there's one thing that I will not do. I will not let you tell me who my friends are. Real brothers will treat each other with trust and respect. They won't be thrat by friendships made outside the house. I think you're letting your grudge with Evan poison how you treat your own brothers. And that's not what I signed up for. So. So maybe this isn't the place for me after all. I'll be at the relay race later to cheer you on. Unless I hear otherwise. Cappie: God, Wade, dismount. Dobler's * Asleigh: Excuse me. The spirit point tally just came out and we are miles ahead. Turns out you were the only president al enough to make us wear those shirts every day. Casey: Yay obsessive-compulsiveness. Ashleigh: You don't sound very excited for someone who's about to win Greek Week. Your whole "ZBZ winners" campaign strategy is coming together just like you wanted. You are going to be a totally legitimate president! Casey: Then why do I feel so Gerald Ford? Tegan: Hi. Frannie was just apologizing for going off the rails so perilously last semester. Frannie: Thank you for listening. Tegan: Code pink. Code pink. Code pink. Rebecca: Tegan? Tegan: Yes? Rebecca: I'm here to apologize. And to ask for a second chance. I'm sorry I put the sisterhood at risk. I'm sorry for... Tegan: I don't want to make you grovel needlessly. There won't be any second chances here. Rebecca: Tegan. One more thing. Your hair is... Casey: Rebecca! No. Stop. Rebecca shouldn't have to grovel at all, Tegan. Yes, she should apologize, but that's it. We can't desert our sister now, when she needs us the most. Sisters trust and support each other. No matter what. It's simple. We stand together. Which means if Rebecca goes, I go. Ashleigh: And I go. Frannie: And I go. Mandi: And I go. Laura: If I stay, can I pick whatever room I want? Casey: Something tells me Nationals wouldn't be too happy if an entire ZBZ chapter de-activated. Am I right? Tegan: So, you're really going against me. For her? Casey: Yep. Tegan: And you realize if she screws up again, that it's all on you? Casey: Yep. I stake my presidency on it. Tegan: Your interim presidency. Casey: Right. Presenter: And, next up in the lip-synch competion, the Zeta Beta Zetas! Casey: Girls, come on, hurry. Go on. Get up there and do your thing. Just keep your clothes on and don't get wet this time. * Campus - Day * Rusty: So I guess we won't be wheelbarrowing against each other after all. And I told him I was... Calvin: I know, I know, you're really sprightly. Cappie really won't lift your punishment even after you told him about the cheer? Rusty: Apparently not. Switzerland has its limits. Calvin: Yeah, too many limits. We need to come up with a stronger, more outspoken country. Rusty: A brave little land with two citizens. We could call it Ralvin! Calvin: Yeah, maybe it doesn't really need a name. Rusty: That's right, because we'll be more powerful in our namelessness! Calvin: Right. Cappie: Could I request a temporary visa? I'm sorry. To both of you. Calvin, you're welcome at the KT house any time you like. Even Grey's Anatomy night, which can be quite exclusive, so feel privileged. Any friend of my little bro is a friend of mine. Calvin: Thanks. Evan: Pledge, what's going on here? Calvin: Just talking with some friends. Evan: Well, it's time for the relay race. We'll discuss your choice of friends later. Calvin: Discuss away. Doesn't mean I'll listen. Rusty: So, what about that feud? Nothing good can come of that. Cappie: You might be right, Spitz. As in swimmer Mark Spitz, nine-time Olympic gold medalist. Assume the position, pledge. We need your human wheelbarrow. I'm off to face Chambers in the last leg. By the way, you were terrifyingly adept when you ripped me a new one last night. I was impressed. Do not do it again. Presenter: Take your marks, get set... Evan: Come on, pick it up, pledge! Ready to come in sloppy second? Cappie: May the best man win. Beaver, come on! Beaver: Cap, you OK? Cappie: Yeah. Beaver: We can't let them get away with this! Let's go mess 'em up! Cappie: No, you know what, Beav? Just let it go. Calvin: Hey, you OK? Cappie: Yeah. Calvin:I'm sorry Evan went all aggro out there. Rusty: It looks like Cappie's ready to move to Ralvin. Calvin: That is not what we're calling it! * Later Presenter: The winners of this year's Greek Week Olympiad are... Omega Chi Delta and Zeta Beta Zeta! Rebecca: [to Cappie] Well, we won. You should've seen the look on Janette's face. It went well with her black eye. Cappie: "We" won? Rebecca: Yes, I'm still a ZBZ "we.". That whole cheesy sister bond thing? It's... actually stronger than I thought. [Hugging Cappie]. Cappie: Sorry, I've been a little distracted this week. Rebecca: It's OK. * Frannie: What are you doing? [Evan kisses her and Casey sees them]. Presenter: I hereby declare the end of these games. * End of episode ***	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x01 - Brothers and Sisters"}	foreverdreaming
ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Ashleigh : OK. Bad news ... We're out of milk. I'd hug you right now but I'm afraid to get my hands too close to your mouth. Casey : Is it just me or do all my exboyfriend has some weird ZBZ finish? Ashleigh : It does appear to be a patern. Casey : First ... She breaks Evan and me, and now she is all frontaly kissing him in very public places, doing all what all the crap people done me before spring break. Ashleigh : Case. Casey : I know, I'm over Evan and I know I should be all Jennifer Aniston, and rise all above it but I just want to bite things. Ashleigh : Hey calm down, just let the "empty calories" work their way into your bloodstream. Frannie : Casey can we talk? Casey : I want to bite her. Please... just, just once in the jugular. Ashleigh : Try back later. Frannie : Casey please, just let me in. Casey : Let her in. Ashleigh : Fine. Sit. Casey : Ash. Ashleigh : Stay. I've a lot of nice things in here, I don't want blood on them. Frannie : Case, I know you must hate me. This all happened so fast. During spring break, Evan and I... Well, we made a connection ... I tried to tell you all week but with the chaos of Greek Week and the visit from Tegan, I couldn't find the right time. Ashleigh : I think she wants you to continue... Frannie : I don't know what else to say. Ashleigh : Try "I'm sorry." Frannie : I'm sorry you'd to find it that way But I hope we could move beyond this. Casey : I am not ready to move beyond this Franny. I need time to process... Frannie : Well, if we could just talk about it, then maybe ... Casey : Processing! Ashleigh : Yeh, her mouth is empty. You should probably go. Frannie : Right. Okay. Well I'll just check back in later then. Casey : I need a ding dong, stat. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty’s alarm clock rings again, and again, and again, until that he stands up, gets dressed and walks way. CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Cappie : It's time to laundry drop off. Rusty : I can't talk. I'm already late for class. Cappie : Oh, your pants are already down there ? Rusty : Oh damn. Cappie : It's not your bear legs that just makes me chuckle but that happy girly attitude does not extend for my boxers. They need to be folded in quarters, not rolled. I need it delivered by 5 tomorrow. I'm in emergency on this right up... Rusty : My door is closed. Cappie : I bet the keys are in the pants? Rusty : What do I do now? Cappie : Get the RA to open your door. Rusty : My what? Cappie : Come here. It's RA's room. Rusty : He never comes out. Cappie : You're sure your an honor engineering? RA stands for... Regular Afordy ...? What is it? I swear my mind going out. I hope it's not from drinking. Resident Adviser. Thank you, God. I can keep boosing. Rusty : Where did he go? Cappie : I don't know. Tell you what? Your big brother wants you to borrow a pair of jeans. The stain in front is from toothpaste, I think ... Hey ho, calling Dr. Genius ... Rusty : There they are. Cappie : Take and make a class and suck a platz of smartiness. Rusty : I'm so late already, I'll probably just skip. Cappie : Wait you're serious? Rusty : Yeah. Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Ashleigh : You are cordially invited to the ZBZ Crush Party. Where? Dobler's. When? Friday night, 8pm. Ok, ok, calm down. Don't scratch me! Those girls could turn "Crush Party" litteraly here. Casey : May I have an extra one? Ashleigh : Oh, you have two crushes? Casey : No, I want to give one to that crusty guy who is always scratching himself and tell him it's from Frannie. Ashleigh : Would that make you feel better? Casey : Only if he shows up and licks her face. These are great thought, you truly are a glue gn goddess. Ashleigh : Thanks. A skill that would come in handy since I'm going to grow old all alone with nothing to live for either than my love of scrapbooking. Casey : Come on, there's gonna be someone you're crushing on! Ashleigh : There is, but I do not know his address, or what school he goes to or his name. Casey : The Hot Ness monster? Ash, you met him once. Ashleigh : Once was enough. Casey : OK, prepare yourself for some tough love : You may never see him again. Ashleigh : You bitch. Casey : OK, it's cruel but true. Is that flip flap in there? Ashleigh : No. Casey : Really? Ashleigh : That is my bottle opener that I keep for emergencies. Casey : You sleep with that thing, and I think it is time that you stop. There are tons of guys out there who would kll to get a Crush Party invite from you. Frannie : Well said. Crush Parties are so exciting : anonymous invitations chances encounters. Are we speaking yet? Because there are some... Casey : Still processing. I have got to run to the career sonar. I'm late for my intro appointment. Ashleigh : It is a complicated process. EXT. CRU Rebecca : Crush Party. Friday night. Cappie : Isn't the whole point of Crush Parties that the invitation is anonimous? Rebecca : Who said it's from me? Cappie : I have a crush? I wonder who it is. Wait, are you going to be there? I'm just wondering because it could get awkward. Or you could join us, and it could get awsome. Rebecca : My dad has totally humiliated me. I admire Chelsea Clinton too. Cappie : Me too. Now that she grunder her face, she is foxy. Rebecca : I wish this would all go away. What would you do if you were me? Cappie : I'd propably distract myself with other pressing issue like what you would be wearing to set crush party? Heels or flat? Rebecca : A bag over my head? Cappie : Like an actual bag or ... Rebecca : This story is on the cover of USA Today for the third day in a row. Cappie : Do they still have Garfield? He is a cat that likes lasagna. Rebecca : Will you be serious for a moment? The most personal aspects of my life are painfully public. Cappie : Worked for Paris Hilton. Rebecca : We'll not be making a sextape, Cap. I've been the star of enough wild videos, thank you very much. Cappie : I'm not talking about a sextape, though we could talk about that whenever you're ready. I'm talking about fame. You are already famous, Rebecca. Your father took care of that for you. The question is: are you going to taste the perks of that fame? CRU – Counseling Center Guy : This is the place where they're handing out jobs, right? Casey : I sure hope so. Guy : I thinking puppeteer honestly. Or dolphins trainer. Maybe rollercoaster tester. Casey : I'll be happy with international pop-star. Guy : I’m Drew Collins Casey : Casey Cartwright. Drew : Casey Cartwright. That'd look great on a business card. Casey : I don't think international pop-star carries them. Drew : So Casey Cartwright, I have a favor to ask you. Casey : Ask away. Drew : Please save me from having to read about the pregnant man but telling me your life story. Casey : You want to know how he got pregnant? Drew : No, no, not at all. Casey : Where to begin? CRU – Engineering progam corridor Dale : Nerd word on the street is that you skipped your polymer seminar today. Rusty : I over slept. That happens. Dale : Then maybe the cons in middle trture inflicted on you by your fraternity brothers, has finally taken its toll. Rusty : No, I'm not tired of pledging, I'm bored with class. All we do is read and regurgitate. Read and regurgitate. You know? Dale : I bet your regurgitate of this RA didn't show up soon. Rusty : Yeah, well maybe it wants to make a dramatic entrance, to assert its authority. Dale : He's gonna find out pretty quick that there's certain habits that nobody's gonna change in me. Rusty : Such as? Dale : Such as ... occasionally not wearing underwears. You're not the only one taking a walk on the wild side in college, my friend. You know what, I think that this all meet the RA thing is a scam. It's the senior kicking of senior's dockades cause it's the exact right time of the year. Rusty : What's the senior's dockades? Dale : Are you sure that you're even in the honor engineering program? Because everybody knows what the senior's dockades are. Rusty : Just enlight me. Dale : Okay. The senior barricade their rooms and the interclassmen try to break in. Rusty : And we do this because ... Dale : We do this because it's an awesome tradition passed down throught the generations by our engineering forefathers. Rusty : Fun. Dale : The seniors also usually leave prizes behind for those who get in. Like last year, I heard this one guy got the box "Star Trek: The Next Generation." So this better not be a wet blanket. Man : I'm Max, and my intention is not to be a wet blanket. I prefer to be a dry blanket. What ever that means. Or, I don't know, I was gonna say... Never mind . I assume you all sort of know the drill. I'm your new residential advisor. Yeah, I'm here in the unfortunate even, you know, lose your keys, miss your parents. Which I hope, by now, you all kind of come to terms with. Or in case you try to kll each other, or yourselves, which, you know, for what it's forth, I hope you wouldn't do either. But I don't really know any of you. I'm here. Rusty : He didn't set much authority. Dale : That's because he knows that nobody can make me wear underwear. KT HOUSE – Living room Heath : Almost. Cappie : What are you guys doing? Rusty : Invented this game called "Kappa Tau Tower". We've been playing for 4 hours. Heath : Your breath is making it move. Looks like somebody is digging the old hair ball of my draining. Damn it! Evil these things. Rusty : I finished your laundry. Cappie : You ironed my jeans? Rusty : Yeah, don't you do that? Cappie : What has gotten into you, Spitter? Rusty : What do you mean? Cappie : You're skipping classes, you're avoiding schoolwork. It's like you're a real life boy. Rusty : I'm taking this honour seminar polymers and it has become non stop drudge work. I'm having a really hard time staying motivated. Cappie : And the problem is ...? Rusty : It is not like me. Never mind. You wouldn't understand. Cappie : Why not? Rusty : Because it is a serious problem. Cappie : Spitz, stop right there. This week, I'm learning how to be sympathetic to other people's serious problems. So give me the scoop. Rusty : When I was 11 years old and I got my first allowance, I went out and bought Sully Putty. Cappie : I think I bought prn, but go on. Rusty : This was the coolest toy ever. You could balance it like a ball, stretch it like clay, throw it up on the wall like a "Water-Gum" You could press it in the comics and the paper in order to transfer the images. Cappie : Like Garfield, right? I love him. Rusty : It was this amazing material, and people made it. I know sounds strange, but I had to know how. So I was went to the library and I found this book about inorganic polymers and this all world just opened up. Kevlar, nylon, Post-it notes, duck tape. The world is filled with man made miracles. And I couldn't wait to get to college ... Cappie : Boredom. Spitter. Life's too short man. Did you ever think that maybe you are in the wrong major. There you go, serious problem solved. See I'm good at this. EXT. CRU Casey : OK, let's review the plan. Ashleigh : Yes, he comes out of class, I hand him the invite. It's not that difficult. Casey : I know, I know, but its all about you present it to him. You can't just show it at him. You have to present it with some fan effects. Ashleigh : Wow, you're crushing hard. I can tell because you are obsessing over the weirdess things. Casey : I believe that's the case of the flip flop calling sandal black. Ashleigh : Touché. So you're sure he'll be here? Casey : He orgasms on his history class. I know because we bonded over the way she says Matisse. You think this is so funny too. Ashleigh : OK Tom, just point out your KT. Casey : There he is. Ashleigh : Hot Ness monster. A few minutes later... Ashleigh : I can believe he goes to school here. Casey : I don't understand how this can happen. We never liked the same guy before. Ashleigh : You pit on Clooney! Casey : We are on untreat territory. You know what? You should take him. After all, you've been obsessed with him longer. Ashleigh : OK. Casey : Really? Because ... Ashleigh : Maybe we could share him. I'll take the top half and ... Wait. Let me think that through. Both : Wow... Casey : It's not just us inviting him you know. Ashleigh : Someone else is inviting him? Is it Laura? Oh that little slut. Casey : No. I mean, he should get some saying too, right? Ashleigh : I guess so. Casey : So we give him an invitation, he comes to the party, we see who he clicks with the most and, the other respectfully bass out. Ashleigh : Well, that sounds so mature of us. Casey : I know, right. Ashleigh : I like mature us. So how do we get the invite to him and both remain anonymous? Casey : Hey ! How is going? Guy : Uh, good. Ashleigh : We have a favour. Take this crush invite. Guy : A ZBZ invite? I've always dreamt of getting one of these. Ashleigh : And just give it to that guy over there. Casey : Yeah, but don't tell him it's from us. Guy : Genetic freak. ******* Rebecca : This just knows wrong. Cappie : Honey, when life gives you lemons, make lemon drops. Rebecca : Let's go to Dobler's and sit in the back and talk. Cappie : Why talk when you can do? Now lets mess up your hair, and don't forget to be out of breath, and busted. ******** Cappie : Mister ... Kwon. You're looking at a pair of students who have been hunted across campus. Our predators? Photographers. She can not walk all the way to and from her classes. She needs one of those platinum faculty parking passes. Mr Kwon : The most covered parking pass on campus? Cappie : Can you think of anyone more deserving or vulnerable right now than Miss Rebecca Logan? Mr Kwon : Paparazzi, uh? Cappie : They are vicious. Just ask Amy Winehouse. Rebecca : Help me, Toby Kwon, you're my only hope. Mr Kwon : Okay, but you didn't get this from me. Cappie : Let's capture this moment, shall we. Lemon drops, Miss Logan. There it is. CRU – Max’s door room Rusty : I think I need some advice from an upper class man in honour engineering program. In my polymer seminar, I'm just having a very difficult time staying focused and motivated. Max : OK, so you're bored. Rusty : Which I've never been before in science. Max : Is it too hard for you? Rusty : Not really. Max : That's pretty arrogant. Rusty : I didn't mean it that way. Max : It sounded that way. Rusty : Look, have you ever questioned whether or not you should be an engineer? Max : No. But if you are bored, maybe it's best that you leave the program. Rusty : Really? Wouldn't that be a fairly complicated process? I mean getting in to honour engineering is pretty complicated. Max : No, you just fill out a form. Rusty : That my parents need to sign? Max : No. Rusty : That my adviser needs to sign? Max : No. Rusty : So that's it? It's that easy to drop out of honour engineering. My life long dream of being a polymer scientist can end, with filling out one form. ZBZ HOUSE - Bathroom Casey : This is so exciting, it's like we're bachelor and we made it to final ceremony. Ashleigh : Yeah, only we're not skinky thirty something who's trying to sabotage eachother. Casey : Yeah mature us! Have you seen my lucky lip gloss? Are you wearing heels? Ashleigh : Of course why? Casey : It's just that it gives you an unfair height advantage. You'll get more eye contact. Ashleigh : I'll tell you what, I'll wear flats if you take out your chicken cotelets. Casey : I don't know what you are talking about? Oh, those? Ashleigh : I bet these get more eye contacts than my heels. Casey : You're being ridiculous. Ashleigh : I'm being ridiculous? Maybe it's you who's being ridiculous. Frannie : Sorry, I'm interrupting something? Ashleigh : No, I was... I was just telling Casey how much I wished I had her eyes. They're beautiful. Casey : Well, I wish I had your smile. Your teeth are like snow-capped mountains. Frannie : We're gonna have so much fun, I can wait to see... Casey : Still processing. DOBLERS Casey : Choosing is a tough decision because we are both beautiful. Ashleigh : Inside and out. Casey : And if there's anyone I'd rather be rejected for, it's you. Ashleigh : Dido. Now when is he getting here? Drew : Hey. Ashleigh : I'm Ashley, from spring break. Drew : Right. What a coincidence. And Casey Cartwright too. Casey : In the flesh. Drew : And I suppose one of you sent me this invite. Casey : Maybe! Ashleigh : I did! CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Someone left you a form outside. What is it? Rusty : Nothing. Dale : Did you enter some kind of contest, academic or worst thing either I should know about? Request for withdraw? You're droping out of polymer science? Rusty : I'm just thinking about it. Dale : No Rusty, you can't do this. Rusty : I said I'm just thinking about it. Dale : Trust me, you can't do this, this would be a huge mistake. Rusty : Finally. Thank you. Dale : Because than I'd have to get a new roommate, and I'm not spending the last two months of my freshman year with some fanatical nutjob. Rusty : Yes, that'd be horrible. Why would they make me move anyway? Dale : Because this is the honours engineering hall, not the average engineering hall. Who is this RA guy? Let's go see who protocols this, come on. CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Rusty : This isn't a done deal, it is just that... I've been questioning whether or not... Dale : Hold on. Wait, wait, where did this door go? Guy : The seniors dockades! Dale : We have to go in there. Rusty : I don't know Dale I'm kind of having a late crisis. Dale : We need to be wearing protective eyewear. Rusty : I'm in. A few minutes later... Dale : So why would you want to drop out of polymer science? Rusty : It's not just as exciting as I thought it would be. Brenching out, joining a fraternity, that's been awesome. Maybe I need to explore academicly as well. Dale : You should join me in electrical engineering. It rocks. Or as I like to say, it shocks. Rusty : Let's get this out. Dale : This guy is good, who would have guessed I mean he incased the whole room in plastic. Rusty : This isn't just any plastic, this is a poly-methyl methyculate. Dale : No, I know that I just... I didn't want you to feel stupid if you didn't know. Rusty : You know what this means? Dale : Let's here who's Johnny. Rusty : Wait! This is solid shatter proof glass. The ax would bounce right off of it. Dale : What do we do now, then? Rusty : Chloroform would dissolve it. Dale : Oh, you know, I used my last bottle of chloroform when I was on mrder road. Rusty : We could try acetone. Dale : I got some nill posh for ever. I explain but that is all and long involving story, and we don't have time right now. DOBLERS Frannie : Hi Casey! Casey : Still processing. Evan : She seems touchee. Frannie : Well you got your wish. Casey's freaking out. Evan : And you have a problem with that because? Frannie : Because it's a situation I have to manage. Evan : Yeah but why do you care? I mean were you and Casey ever really that close? Frannie : We were. But she has always been closer to Ashleigh. Her giant siamese twin. Evan : Someone's jealous. Frannie : I'm not jealous. Their birds of a feather easily distracted from the big picture. They are also very liked in the house which means if they make me a pariah again I'm... Evan : What is she gonna tell them? Frannie is dating my ex-boyfriend? You know it already happened with Rebecca. If anything, that's just gonna make her look like a... jealous lunitate. Frannie : You are so damn sexy. ********* Drew : And that's how I got this scar. Ashleigh : That is the most fascinationg story I ever heard. Let me see. Drew : I know it sounds stupid, but it's the first time I realized my own mortality. And I even kept the glasses as a reminder. Ashleigh : That is so sweet. Casey : Ashleigh likes to keep little momentoes too, don't you? Ashleigh : I keep things that means something to me. Objects, not ex-boyfriends. Drew : So you guys are best friends, right? Casey : And roommates. Since all four years. It's been so long I don't even notice her snoring anymore. Ashleigh : Yeah, we've seen each other throught good times and bad. Like that time you hooked up with that 16 year-old. Too funny! Casey : Or that time that you through yourself at the gay guy. My Gosh. Hilarious. Ashleigh : But enough about us. We want to hear more about you. Casey : Like do you have any pets? Drew : I have a dog at home, named Shadow ... Casey : Ash is terribly allergic! Casey : Do you like icecream? Cause Casey is crazy lactose intolerance. Casey : Ash hate Will Ferrell movies. Casey : Casey loves Mariah Carey. Drew : I've got to go to the bathroom. CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Rusty : Things gotten softer. Dale : Yeah but not enough to matter. Rusty : We could try irradiating it. Can we get a hold on the laser? Dale : There is one upon the ship, Captain Kirk. Dale’s cellphone rings... Dale : Samir Elizabeth use dynamite to blow up some senior door over in Daphne hall. Do you want to go? Rusty : No, we've come so far. Dale : All right Rusty, listen I'm getting in the dorm room tonight. It's dynamite, it's literally gonna be a blast. Rusty : No, you go ahead. Heat. DOBLERS Betsy : Hey guys! Ashleigh : Hey, Betsy! Betsy : I wanted to let you know that I'm commited to living sober and my 12-step plan for a success. Casey : That's great. Betsy : One step in my plan is making amends. So I wanted to apologize. I know that my drinking cause problems for both of you. And when I think that my crazy behavior kept either of you from having a potential relationship with a boy that could have been awesome. Well it makes me feel like... Ashleigh : Incredibly selfish? Betsy : Yes. Casey : Like you've been a huge flirty butt face? Betsy : Yes. Ashleigh : Like you stood in the way of two soulmates who were meant to be together. Betsy : OK wow, I get it, all right! I messed up! It's gonna be a lot harder than I thought. I have to go call my sponsor. Casey : OK, I have a solution to stop all this. Ashleigh : Me too. You leave. Casey : Or we each get 15 minutes with him, alone. After that, he has to choose. Ashleigh : Works for me. I'm much better one on one anyway. I'll go first! Casey : So you can tell him about my waxing regiment? I don't think so. I'm first. Ashleigh : So you can tell him I'm afraid of little people? Pretty sneaky, sis! Casey : Fine, we flip a coin. Both : Heads! CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Dale : You're still at it? Rusty : It's thermal plastic so it should respond to heat. How do you do? Dale : Let's just say it's a mere exaggerate quite a bid: his dynamite was 3 cherry bmb. Wouldn't have blown out my little sister's doll house. but I could get away with this close hanger. I mean it could have been easier. So I can sleep victorious. Rusty : What was the reward? Dale : Oh, the dude left his batteries. Rusty : Heat is just too diffuse. Dale : You better find a way to focus it in a hurry, you've got 30 minutes. Rusty : What do you mean? Dale : The senior dockades end at midnight. Maybe this will help you. DOBLERS Rebecca : One digital card. Cappie : Check. Rebecca : 2 diner passes to restaurant. Cappie : Check. Kobe beef with first gelato who knew? Rebecca : I have to admit Cappie. You've proven the scandals do have an up side. This must be how it feels to be Heidi and Spencer. What do girls have to do here around to get a Lemon Drop? Girl : Turn 21 years? Cappie : I am working on that. ******* Drew : So where is Casey ? Ashleigh : She'll be back in 14 and a half minutes. Can you believe that we are seating here together! I mean, first we meet at spring break. And then we both end up going to the same school! It has to be fate. Drew : Totally, spring break was awesome. Ashleigh : The awesomest. Drew : So was your volleyball spike. Are you on a team here? Ashleigh : No, I don't play volleyball. I wear too much jewelry. Drew : Isn't that how we met? Ashleigh : No, we met at a party. At the Hot House. You tripped me with your giant foot. Drew : That party was insane! In fact, weren't you wearing a lifejacket! Ashleigh : No, I was actually wearing an adorable green tunic, with flower bouquet. Chuncky. A "Peace" necklace. A pink hat. Drew : The whole week is a fuzzy blair. In fact, I lost one of my favourite flip flap. Ashleigh : I gonna go get another drink. Drew : I can grab you one. Ashleigh : No, you just stay put. ******** Ashleigh : He's all yours. Casey : But you still have 13 minutes. Ashleigh : He is so not my type. I don't know what I was thinking? Temporary insanity, I guess. Casey : But he is your Hot Ness monster. Ashleigh : Correction: was ... Now it's your fun new guy. Yeah, fun new guy. Casey : Are you sure? Ashleigh : Yeah, go. Oh wait. I found your lucky lip gloss, some how it ended up in my purse. CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Rusty : Right on time. Surrounded to Spitter. It is locked. It's over. You've been in there this whole time? Max : Yeah and I will use the torch, so you may well stand back. EXT. ZBZ HOUSE – Front door Casey : So what did you think of your first Crush Party? Drew : It's heavy. Crush, heavy. Casey : Got it. I'm sorry about all the weirdness. Drew : You're just worried about Ashley, it's fine. Casey : Yeah. Drew : She is an amazing girl, great personality, unique fashion sens, beautiful body. She is gonna make some guy crazy happy. Maybe they'll even get married on a reality show. Casey : They could invite the pregnant man. Drew : They could, yes. Thought, by then he'd probably wouldn't be pregnant. The point is that she'll be fine. Casey : You should add "cheering people up" to your résumé, under special skills. Drew : I should. Right below "kissing." Drew and Casey are kissing... Casey : You're hired. Frannie opens the door kissing Evan... Frannie : Good night. Evan : Casey. Drew : What should we do now? CRU – Corridor of the dormitory Max : You're still here? Rusty : Where is your key hole? Max : I changed the door. Rusty : That can't be fair. Max : Senior dockades has no rules so. Ipso facto, there is no fair. Rusty : Well, then I guess you've won. Max : Come inside. Rusty : What is this? Max : The su1c1de prevention hotline. They are open 24 hours. Rusty : I'm not suicidal. Max : Good, I've heard it's tons of paperwork. Rusty : I'm just looking for a reason to be a polymer scientist. Do they have a hotline for that? Max : Well, my reason is kevlar, you can borrow it if you want. Rusty : You're in polymers? Max : First time I knew it, I was in my dad tire shop where I worked on the weekends, I was trying to tear appart this thread of kevlar from a busted tire which, of course, you can't because it's indestructible. I actually cut my hand up pretty badly. And it dondon me that some guy just created this, it was a guy and a girl actually, Stephanie Kwolec and ... Robert whatever, sorry. My point is someone thought to take the tiniest of particules to create something far superior to anything that is naturally forming. Rusty : Like Sully Putty. Max : Incredible stuff, huh? Consider it your reward for almost getting in. I'm impressed you didn't give up. Rusty : I guess I can't walk away from a puzzle. Max : Which is why you are a scientist. And that's why you're a polymer scientist. Time to go. Rusty : No way. You work for NASA. So you must be a genius. Max : I guess so. DOBLERS Cappie : Alright, it's a mixed bag. Steve Dobbler won't budge a whole serving alcohol to minors thing. But if you don this shirt every Thursday he'll compense nachos for the rest of the year. Free nachos. Lipped in salt, grease, covered in sour cream ... Lord I'm hungry! Rebecca : Cap. Cappie : Look, I'll give you some more stuff, I'm... Rebecca : Cap, my parents just called. They're getting a divorce. Cappie : I'm sorry. I bet going back savage will cheer you up. Give me a straw, and I'll drink apple juice through my nose. Rebecca : That's it? Cappie : I can also burp the Star-Spangled Banner. You want me to go with you? Rebecca : I don't think Lemon Drops can fix this, Cap. ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Casey : Up freeing some feelings? Ashleigh : What happened with Hot Ness? I mean, Drew. Casey : Let's just say I'm not Frannie. Ashleigh : He's into Frannie now? He needs to seriously make up his mind. Casey : He was walking me home when I saw Frannie kissing her new boyfriend. And it dondoned me. What got me so ticked off about Frannie is not she's with Evan, it's that she chose the possibility of a relationship with a guy over our friendship, and I was in the process of doing the same thing to you with Drew. Ashleigh : No, Case. Really. It's fine. Drew is a great guy and he's totally into you, not me. He didn't even remember me. Casey : What? That's impossible. You're unforgettable. Ashleigh : Apparently not. Casey : Well you are to me. And there is no guy on earth, dreamy enough to come between us. Come here. Except maybe Christian Bale. Ashleigh : Or Johnny Depp. Casey : Johnny Depp. For you totally. Totally for you. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Casey : May I have some? Frannie : Of course. Casey : Sometimes, you just have to wake up and smell the coffee, you know. Frannie : You're smilling. May take it as you're done processing? Casey : It's been processed, packaged and put on a shelf. Frannie : So we're friends again? Casey : Absolutely not. Frannie : What does that mean? Casey : Evan cheated on me, and lied to me and tried to manipulate me, Frannie. By dating him, you're basically saying that's OK. You're choosing him over me. Frannie : I don't see it that way, Case. Casey : I don't care, Fran. Frannie : What happens now? What happens to big sis, little sis? Casey : We're sisters forever, Frannie. We're just no longer friends. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty’s alarm clock is ringing.

CRU - Street Cappie is down car. Pledges are busy to push it... Little girl : Move out of the way! Cappie : Speed kills! She's getting away. Put your backs into it. Ben Bennett : What's a hernia feel like? Gonzo : When's Cappy gonna realize that the Broncosaurus isn't gonna start again ever. Cappie : I heard that. Rusty : I know you love her. But maybe it's time extinction ran its course? Cappie : I didn't give up on her when the engine blew, when the backseat caught on fre or when I crashed her into a bog. Rusty : There's bogs in Ohio? Cappie : I'm not giving up on her now. Besides, I'm assuming you pledges will be needing her for your monthly supply run to Cost Club, since none of you have cars of your own. Rusty : But it's 15 miles. Cappie : The house is woefully low on essentials like moisturizer and butt paper, and I'm sick of stealing it from the sorities. Powder fresh scent makes me chafe. Ben Bennett : Dude, borrow your sister's car. Rusty : She'll never go for it. Gonzo : Why not? Rusty : When I was 16, I borrowed her car for my DMV test, and I ended up in a grocery store parking lot and I ran over one of the coin-operated horse rides. Gonzo : Was there a kid on it? Rusty : No. Ben Bennett : Then who cares? Rusty : Casey cared. She doesn't trust me. She never will. I'm also not allowed to install her software or touch her dolls. It's a long story. Pickle : But you're her brother. Rusty : Her little brother and she's likely to never see me as anything but that. Cappie : Less chat, more push. We need more momentum for the hill. Rusty : I'll ask to borrow her car. EXT. ZBZ HOUSE – Front door The postman rings. Someone opens the door... Postman : Here you go. A girl : Thank you. A few minutes later... Rebecca : Mail call. Casey : Thanks, Pledge Logan. Rebecca goes back... Ashleigh : I hope it's something good. Casey : She's really starting to embrace her pledge duties and it only took her 7 months. Ashleigh : No. Not good. It's my credit card bill! Casey : Ok. We knew this day was coming. Ashleigh : Be gentle, Credit Plus. This is my first... 1300? Casey : Dollars? Ashleigh : And 27 cents. I'm gonna be sick. Casey : Ok. Don't panic. Just pay the minimum and live to fight another month. Ashleigh : It doesn't say anything about a minimum. Casey : Ash. This is a charge card, not a credit card. You have to pay off the entire balance each month. Ashleigh : But it's called Credit Plus, not Charge Plus! They lied. My parents're gonna kll me. They're gonna take away my allowance. Casey : We can deal with that. Ashleigh : They're gonna make me get a job, which means I won't have as much time to devote to the house. Casey : We can deal with that too. Ashleigh : Which means no more social chair. Casey : That we cannot deal with. The office of social chair is more important than vice-president! Ashleigh : Yeah. Of America! Doorbell rings. Omega Chis come in... Dino : Afternoon, ladies. As president of Omega Chi, I have an announcement. ZBZ girl : I thought Evan was the president of Omega Chi. Frannie : No, Dino's always been president. Evan's the pledge educator. You need to pay more attention. Dino : This Saturday evening is our Casino Night. Evan : The 20 dollar cover goes to charity and gets you 2,000 dollars of fake gambling money. However, there is a real 2,000 dollar pot for whichever player wins the most chips by midnight. All right, gentlemen, whip out your decks. Calvin : Bring your A-game, ladies, because the best card sharks in the Greek system will be there. Casey : You are the luckiest girl in the world. Credits OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Calvin : So, today's the day. Evan : I think today's the day. I'm meeting my mom in a few minutes. Calvin : I guess the car my dad gave me after graduation was the closest thing to a trust fund I'll ever see. Evan : So, is it a lot? Calvin : No, don't answer that. Just give me a hint. No, don't do that, either. Evan : I have been waiting for this day, well... since forever. Calvin : I mean, haven't you been rich since... well, forever? Evan : My parents have, but this is my money, my freedom. I'll be able to do anything. I can go off the map. I can do whatever I want. Escape the Chambers prison. Calvin : Sounds like a rich kid thing. "The Chambers prison." What does that look like? Diamond latrines and bars made from gold? Evan : Nope, but with my trust fund I can probably build you one of those. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Hey case. That's a cool shirt. Where did you get it? Casey : Why? You going shopping? Rusty : No, I was just paying a compliment to my super-awesome sister. Casey : What do you want? Rusty : Your car. Casey : No. Rusty : Come on. Casey : We have a good thing going here. A year ago if someone asked me what your favorite color is I would have assumed you were colorblind, given the way you dress. Now I know it's brown. Rusty : Actually, it's green. Casey : My point is, let's cherish and protect our new relationship, not muck it up with something like sharing things. Rusty : 2 hours. That's all I need. Casey : Rusty. 2 hours was all you need for your driver's test, remember? Rusty : I knew you'd bring that up. Casey : It took 4 produce men and 5 quarters to get my car off that horse. I had to take the school bus for a week. Rusty : It was one honest mistake. Casey : Your sketchy history spans decades. What about my Cabbage Patch Drink'N'Wet Newborn? Rusty : Your stupid doll that could pee? Casey : You filled her with cranberry juice. That doesn't look like pee. Rusty : I was six years old. I was six! Casey : Or the time that you erased my online'N Sync diary. Rusty : I was 12. I'm 18 now. Casey : Oh my God. Six, 12, 18. Six, six, six. This explains everything. Rusty : Stop treating me like a kid! Or Damien. I'm a grown up. When are you gonna see that? Casey : I see you just as you are. As my little brother who's not borrowing my car. EXT. KT HOUSE Cappie repairs his car... Cappie : Wade? Are you waxing again? Rebecca : I'd be offended if Wade didn't have such great legs. Cappie : I haven't talked to you in a few days. Rebecca : Sorry. I've been busy. House stuff. You should really put this poor truck out of its misery. It's a total POS. Cappie : And by that I can only assume you mean "total piece of super-badass". Rebecca : It's not looking too badass right now. There's been a lot of stuff going on lately with my family and Spring Break. Just a lot of drama. Cappie : I love drama. Remember when Locke blew open the hatch? Finally? Rebecca : I don't want my family stuff to weigh us down. So I've decided to keep that part of my life over there and this part of my life over here. Focus only on fun when I'm with Cappie. Cappie : I love fun, too. Whatever you want. Rebecca : Casino Night at Omega Chi tomorrow night. Wanna go? Cappie : With Evan and the Chipmunks? Is that a pitch for fun or drama? Rebecca : Good point. Hmm... Cap ? You know What you're doing? Cappie : Does this look like a transmission to you? Rebecca : OK. Let's go. Fun awaits. Cappie : Wait, wait. Cappie locks his car... ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : Let's go with The Zen of 21. Casey : You know, we only need one book, right? How did you afford all these? You put them on your credit card? Ashleigh : Charge card! Who cares? We're gonna win. Casey : Maybe we should learn how to play 21 first, then get cocky. We each get two cards and the one closest to 21 wins. Ashleigh : Do you have a queen? Casey : This isn't Go Fish. You ht if you want more. Ashleigh : OK. ht me. ht me again. Again. Come on. Casey : Forty-two! Ashleigh : I got double blackjack. Casey : No. You busted. Ashleigh : What? They make it look so easy in that movie,21. Casey : But they weren't just adding cards. They were counting them. Ashleigh : Too bad we can't fly in a geek from MIT to teach us how. Casey : No, but maybe we could find a geek a little closer to home. EXT. CRU - Street Evan’s Mom : Your father and I are so excited about your plans for the future. Harvard. The Senate. We just want to make sure you remain on that path. It's an incentive trust. Evan : But Mom, can't you just trust that I'm gonna stay on that path? I mean, those things, I've wanted those my entire life. Isn't that enough? Evan’s Mom : Of course it is, but Evan, this is a lot of money. And you didn't expect us to just hand it over after your brother's debacle? Evan : But I'm not Patrick. I'm focused. Evan’s Mom : So was Patrick. It seems when kids your age receive this much money it can provoke some fairly ridiculous responses, and we just want some peace of mind. As a future lawyer, I'm sure you can understand that. Which is why we've included certain lifestyle provisions. Evan : And what are those? How old I have to be before I'm allowed to get married? Evan’s Mom : Well, actually, yes. Not before you're 25, which I can't imagine you were planning on, anyway. You aren't hoping to rush to the alter with that blonde Casey, are you? Evan : She and I are done. Evan’s Mom : Sorry to hear that. Evan : And what if I do choose to pull a Patrick and do something different with my life? Would you sue me? Evan’s Mom : Don't be petulant, Evan. If you chose to do something else you'd be wasting a tremendous amount of potential and you would lose your trust fund. If you're not prepared to invest in us, then how can you expect us to invest in you? Evan : I need to think about this. Evan’s Mom : All right. Look it over and let us know. CRU – Rusty & Dale’s room Rusty : I'll have to call you back. Casey : Hey !!! There's my little... big... brother! You busy? Rusty : I'm kinda in the middle of something. Casey : We need to learn how to count cards. Rusty : There are 52 in a deck. Ashleigh : We were thinking more like in that movie. Rusty : Like "counting" counting? The MIT guys? Casey : Yes. Do you know how? Rusty : It can't be that hard. I turned down MIT. Why do you need to learn to count cards? Casey : It's not for me, it's for Ash. And the folks at Credit Plus. Rusty : I don't know. You know, with my sketchy history with peeing dolls and horses... Ashleigh : I won't ask. Casey : OK, assuming you're every bit the math geek we need, you can borrow my car for one hour. Rusty : Two hours. Casey : Fine, fine. But only if Ash wins Casino Night. Rusty : You got a deal. Ashleigh : Yay !!! Cartwright powers, activate. Casey : Oww !! You always squeeze so hard! Rusty : No, I don't. Casey : Yeah, you do. A few minutes later... Rusty : I think you're distracting my floormates from their studies. Ashleigh : It's like I'm their queen. I'm gonna come here every time I feel down. Casey : Can we get back to this? I haven't learned a thing. Rusty : Maybe if you applied yourself a little more, like you didn't do in algebra. Casey : Or you in your driver's test, Damien. Rusty : I hate that you keep bringing that up. Casey : And I hate being talked down to. Ashleigh : Children! Rusty : It's simple math. Casey : "Simple math" is an oxymoron, whereas you're just a... Ashleigh : 10 minute break. Everybody out of the pool. Casey : You know what? Forget it. We're out of here. Rusty : What about the car? Ashleigh : What about my debt? I’m sorry that you think your brother is the demon seed but I need 13 hundred dollars and 27 cents. Casey : The deal is off. We'll formulate a Plan B. No more deals with the devil boy. Max comes... Max : Hey I got your note. Sorry. I'm car-less. Also, I'm sorry about your sister. She sounds terrible. Rusty : Max, this is my sister, Casey, and her friend, Ashleigh. Max : Hi. Rusty : Do you know anything about counting cards? Max : Counting cards? Yeah. Why? Ashleigh : 'Cause there's this big fraternity Casino Night tomorrow. I'm trying to win two grand. Max : It's just keeping track of the ratio of high cards to low cards. A fraternity wouldn't use six decks like a real casino so there's even less to keep track of. I'd say two decks, tops. Anyone can count that. Bye. Max goes back... Casey : Almost anyone. Rusty : Wait. Casey, wait. I need a car. Don't go anywhere. Max? Max, hold up. If I help them win the money Casey's gonna loan me her car. But in order to help them win the money, I need to teach these two how to count cards. Can you help me? Max : I don't think so. Rusty : Case. What if it's me and Max? He gets... What do you want? Casey : 5%? Max : 10%? Rusty : 10%? And we get his knowledge. Casey : Fine. Welcome aboard, Max. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Frannie : Evan. These deal points aren't that bad. Evan : I can't even get married till I'm 25. Frannie : Should I be flattered? Evan : You know, it's not the rules. It's the finality. I'm 21, and the idea of legally committing the rest of my life to the order of a document... it's a little daunting. Frannie : Why did you want to go to law school in the first place? Evan : It's all I've ever wanted. My grandfather attended Harvard Law. My father attended Harvard Law. Frannie : So, your family influenced this path? Evan : It's not the same thing. Frannie : What's so different? Either way you're set for life. Why get cold feet now? Evan : I don't know. What if I want to go off the map and be someone else? Frannie : Like who? You're Evan Chambers. You're going to be on the map no matter where you are. Might as well make it a treasure map. CRU – Car Dealer Cappie : Feel like I'm cheating on Broncosaurus. Rebecca : A guy can still look, right? Cappie : What's that, KITT? You say you want me to buy you? You say together we can fight the forces of evil? Affirmative, Cappie. We can use my grappling hook to steal the Omega Chi wet bar. Becks, did you hear that? He likes wet bars too. Rebecca : Then let's get it. Or him. Cappie : Too bad I can't afford him. Rebecca : I can buy it for you. Cappie : It's a car. Rebecca : According to you, he's your crime fighting partner to be. Come on, let's have fun. Cappie : There's this whole thing called the male ego. Rebecca : Calm down, caveman. My father's been trying to buy my love lately and this seems a good place for him to start. It's a gift. But if it makes your ego feel better you can always pay me back in trade. Cappie : Trade? That's gonna be a lot of sex. Rebecca : I know. Cappie : Think I can make an advance deposit? CRU – Max’s room Max : Ok. Tens through kings, minus one. Aces are minus two. The more of these left in the deck, the better. Cards two through six are plus one. A lot of these left, not good. Bet small amounts. Casey : I knew it wouldn't be that complicated. You're a good teacher. Rusty : Yes. It's easy when you pay attention. Casey : Did you say something, Damien? Rusty : Car. Car. Car. Max : So let's try one. Start with dollar bets. They're the Flintstones Chewables. Don't bet the horse pills till the count gets to plus seven. Casey : Can I split these? Max : Yes. But not if I'm showing a ten. Unless you're a complete dweeb. Casey : Like Rusty. Minus three? Ashleigh : Minus 2? Rusty : Plus three. Minus three? With all the low cards showing? Who's the dweeb now? Casey : Shut up, Little Man Tate. Ashleigh : Are we gonna have to have another time out? Max : OK. Round two. Ready? Rusty : Begin. Ashleigh : You're going too fast. I'm getting card sick. Max : Who's got it? Rusty, put your hand down. Casey : Plus 7? So now we bet big. Max : We bet huge. Ashleigh : We're so gonna win. If all we're doing is increasing our odds, won't adding more players better our percentage? What? I totally get percentages. Why don't you guys come with us? Max : To a fraternity party? Rusty : An Omega Chi fraternity party? Casey : Another half hour in the car and we'll add another five percent. We'll consider it an advance against your expenses. Max : Expenses? Casey : Do you own anything that doesn't look like you want to climb a mountain? CRU - Shop Rusty : Thanks for including me on the deal. I love my sister but when I try to explain anything to her, it's like we're polystyrene and polybutadiene. Max : More like polyvinylchloride and polyurethane. Rusty : No wonder you worked for NASA. Casey : The grey or black? Ashleigh : Black, but with a red tie. No. Wait, green. Casey : Why green? Ashleigh : The color of money. Casey : You're a genius. More. Rusty : I'm so sorry for Casey. She's so annoying. Just roll with it. Max : No, it's fine. Casey : Try these on. Max : Right here? Casey : Just put them on over your cargo shorts. Max : Really? Rusty : Trust me, Max. Resistance is futile. Casey : Let's just see if that jacket matches. There you are. Snazzy. Max : Me? KT HOUSE – Living room Heath : Does this make you a kept man? Cappie : She's just buying me a car, that's it. Wade : Be careful, Cap. Reese and Ryan. Madonna and Guy. All wealthy women in history who could afford to buy their men. Cappie : OK, would you simmer down, Us Weekly, she's not trying to buy me. Heath : This one girl I used to pretend to date, she got to choose all the movies because she paid. I lost years of my life watching nothing but chick flicks. Euro Trip? Never seen it. Ella Enchanted? 16 times. Wade : I think I read somewhere that Julia Roberts literally owns Danny Moder. Heath : Smart investment. He's hot. Wade : I wonder how he doesn't feel beneath her, you know? Cappie : OK, guys, Rebecca's not trying to control me or buy me. She's been through a lot lately. Wade : We're trying to get back to some reality-free fun. I thought you were way too different to make it for the long haul, but I guess I was wrong. You really got to like the girl a lot to take a car. There's no breaking up after that. Cappie : Nope. No breaking up. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Evan : So, the Bentley GTC is amazing, but the Iron Man Audi is just plain disgusting. I hear they literally raise the cows in the shape of the leather seats. Calvin : All you have to do is drive only to the places you're allowed to go. I'm sure it's worth it for a few dollars. Evan : Try a few million. Calvin : I told you not to tell me. Evan : Why did you rush Omega Chi? That's right, your dad told you to. Calvin : My dad didn't make me sign a contract. I still maintain some semblance of freedom. Evan : Freedom's an illusion. Calvin : Frannie said that, 'cause I just got goosebumps. Evan : Come on. Calvin : I know. You like her. I'm sorry. It's just that this is a huge decision. I'd hate to see you at 40 regretting a choice you made at 21. Omega Chi guy : Calvin, get down here. Calvin : That's my cue. I got a pit to boss. Evan : All right, let's go. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Casino Party Casey : Ash, you and Rusty take that table. We'll go over there. Ashleigh : Happy counting. Casey : Follow me. Betsy : Hi. I'm Betsy. Max & Casey : Hi, Betsy. Betsy : I've been playing at this table for two hours and loving it. That's because I don't need alcohol to have a good time. I'm high on life. Max : Cherish every moment. Casey : That's very sweet. Croupier : Twenty-two. You bust. Betsy : Son of a bitch! I gotta win that back. Deal me again. Let's go. Evan : What are you doing here? Cappie : I heard this was for the Omega Chi's official charity. Erectile dysfunction. A terrible affliction. I know how much you guys want to bat it. Evan : The cover just went up to 120. Calvin : Come on. He's got the cover. Let him play. Cappie : Thank you. Croupier : Here you go. Calvin : Cap. Don't steal our booze. Rebecca : You're here! Why'd you change your mind? Cappie : And miss all the fun? Croupier : Place your bets. Rebecca’s cellphone rings... Rebecca : Hello? I can't. That's between you two. I'm at a party. I'll call you tomorrow. Cappie : Everything all right? Rebecca : Of course. It has nothing to do with us. Waiter : Here you are. Croupier : Blackjack! Cappie : Yes ! Rebecca : Right on. Croupier : You're tipping me with fake money? Cappie : Yes, but the feelings are real. Rebecca : You keep this up you'll be able to get satellite radio for your new car. Assuming you didn't want the super retro tape Deck you already have. Cappie : Double down. Casey : Yeah. Looks like someone's gonna win their 15 percent. Max : I'll probably just take five percent. Your friend needs it more. Rusty : Excuse me. We have a problem. Casey : Calm down, Chicken Little. The sky's not falling. Ashleigh : Yes, it is. It's Jason. He's beating all of us put together. Casey : Oh, my god. The dork in the Travis suit? Jason : Yes! Max : Is Travis a designer? Casey : No, he's Ashleigh's evil ex. Jason is his clone from the shallow end of the gene pool. Rusty : That's kind of harsh. Ashleigh : He said polymers are as interesting as a dirt sandwich. Rusty : A dirt sandwich that's found in almost every adhesive. Max : And lubricant on the planet. Stupid knuckle-dragging astrophysics. Casey : Is he counting cards too? Rusty : His winning percentage is higher than ours. His bets are mathematically insane. He's got to be cheating. Casey : How ? Rusty : Sunglasses? Jason : It's got to be. Ashleigh : X-ray vision? No way. Rusty : He's marking cards. Max : It's probably a substance on his fingers that he can see with his glasses. Rusty : I read about that in one of my 21 books, so if we don't stop Jason there's no way we can win for sure. Ashleigh : Then Caseys and gentlemen, I think it's time for a little sting. Ashleigh : Allow me. Jason : Ashleigh! What do you want? Ashleigh : I wanted to apologize. Jason : Why? 'Cause you realize the last time I saw you, you were a total loon? Ashleigh : I'm trying to be nice now. Jason : I should pay attention here. Ashleigh : But I want to apologize, maybe rekindle our friendship. Jason : Seriously? Ashleigh kisses Jason taking something from his jacket... Ashleigh : Only if we can be friends... with benefits. Casey catches this thing to give it to Rusty... Calvin : Warned her bout that credit card. Rusty : It's actually a charge card. New deck. Calvin : Yeah. Just like you asked. So which ones do we mark? Rusty : The twos, threes and fours. So when he thinks he's getting a high card he's getting a low one, baby. Calvin : Don't call me baby. Rusty : Right. Croupier : You're a winner. Cappie : Chicken dinner. What the hell does that mean? Rebecca : I don't know. I want to play. Cappie : Let's not jinx my system. Rebecca : What gives? Cappie : What do you mean? Rebecca : Well, this is just for fun, right? If you don't win I can just get you a satellite radio. Cappie : I don't want the radio. Rebecca : I would. Terrestrial bites. Cappie : Or the car. I just want to get some money and fix the Broncosaurus. Rebecca : OK. I can pay to have that fixed, too. I just thought... Cappie : I got it. And that's blackjack. Frannie : Hey. Why aren't you playing? Evan : I'm down to my last 45 dollars. Casey : Sister. Frannie : Casey. Casey has a warped sense of sibling relationships. I'm starting to understand her brother better. Ever since I came back to the house I've done nothing but support her, advise her constantly, and this is the thanks I get. Evan : Maybe you should stop being so nice. Just get back in the game. Frannie : Well, maybe you're right. Cappie : Blackjack! Frannie : What's going on? You still thinking about the trust fund? Evan : Yeah. You know, growing up, I was always referred to as the oungest of the Chambers sons. When I came to Cyprus-Rhodes, I thought I could be my own man and not just an extension of my family. Frannie : You sound like you're about to break into song. I mean, everyone comes to college wanting to exert their independence, Evan. To have fun... Evan : Right now college doesn't seem like much fun. Frannie : Don't confuse a fake casino in a fraternity house with real life. Stop gambling with fake chips. What reason do you seriously have to go off the map? You have a trust fund and a birthright. Embrace it. Come on. Evan : Where are we going? Frannie : To be the center of attention. That will make you feel better. Omega Chi guy : All right, everybody. Listen up. It's almost midnight and we are down to the final high rollers. Calvin : High rollers, you ready to gamble? Jason : Yeah. It's time to get paid, y'all. Cappie : Big money, big money. No whammies. Casey : Jason, if you're so confident, why not just bet it all? Jason : Are you crazy? I'll bet half, Carrie. Casey : It's Casey. Max & Cappie : It's Casey. Max : So, I heard you compared polymer science, to dirt sandwiches. Jason : Well, it's just that we astrophysicists, we discuss big things. Like the string theory of matter. Max : We work with real world stuff, like self-healing rubbers. Jason : Get out. Cappie : Seriously? Any chance that'd ht stores before Christmas? Rusty : Not those kinds of rubbers, Cap. Cappie : Tease. Jason : Hey, polymer boy. How much you want to bet I get a 21? I'll double down. Rusty : Hey, Jason? Rusty shows him something written in his arm... Jason : Wait. I thought you had a ten. Calvin : Why would you think that? And ten makes 18. Max and Casey push. Rusty wins. Better Luck next time to our friend, Jason, who's out. Casey : Yes. Jason : Come on, Ashleigh. Ashleigh shows him something written in her chest... Calvin : Don't ever let me catch you in here again. Cappie : That's pretty awesome, Cal. By the way, I won. Calvin : It's too close to call. We'll play one more hand. Omega Chi guy : One minute to midnight. It all comes down to this hand. Casey : OK, the deck's minus two, which means crazy low card time. Let's play it safe and keep our lead. Max : Let's split these aces. Calvin : Splitting aces? Casey : Not safe. Calvin has a ten. He probably has a 20. Max : This will work. High risk, high reward. Casey : Remember splitting aces? Ten? Complete dweebs? Rusty? Max : ht this one. And this one. Split them again. Rusty : Max! Calvin : Sorry, guys. Rusty : Nineteen, 17, 18. That's... Casey : Bad if Calvin has a ten. Max : I gotta go. Ashleigh : What just happened? Casey : Sorry. Calvin : Cappie, it's your move. Rebecca : Hey, how's it go...? Oh Wow... Calvin : ht or stay? bat the house, win two grand. Cap? Cap ? Cappie : I'll stay. Calvin : Dealer gets 20. Cappie wins. Cappie : I just saved the Broncosaurus. 200,000 miles and counting. Rebecca : Congratulations. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : Ready for an indecent proposal, Miss Logan? Rebecca : I think we've probably had enough of those for one night? Cappie : Come on, let's just have sex and money. Rebecca : Why couldn't you just tell me you didn't want me to buy that car? Cappie : 'Cause I didn't want to make an issue out of it. Instead it looks like I made an entire newsstand. Rebecca : Let's be serious. For once. I'm the one who's been a downer lately so I was just trying to keep things fun. I'm really sorry if your male ego can't handle a girl buying you something expensive. Cappie : It's not my ego, it's my pride. Rebecca : Your pride? Cappie : It's just another reminder of how I'm beneath you. Rebecca : Beneath me? Are you talking about Spring Break? I apologized for that. I was drunk. Cappie : As someone who's drunk a lot, I know when someone says stuff like that, you might not mean to say it, but there's usually a part of you that does mean it. And it wasn't the first time. Remember Parents'Weekend? Whenever your family comes into your life, I instantly become the poster boy for the Rebecca Logan Make a Wish Foundation. And I just... I don't want to deal with it. Rebecca : That the reason I can't even talk to you about my family without you consoling me by offering to drink apple juice through your nose? You didn't want the car because then we'd ha to get more serious and that freaks you out. And with everything happening right now... My parents'divorce, my father's trial, Zeta Beta... I need something more than just fun. Cappie : Well... Then I'll be serious. I can step up and be that guy. Rebecca : I know you can, Cap. But just not for me. Deep down I think you know that. You're just too Cappy to say so. Cappie : So, are we...? Rebecca : Broken up? Yeah. I guess so. Cappie : I'm sorry. Rebecca : I'm sorry, too. ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Ashleigh : I have to get a job, Case. A job! What did I do to deserve this? Casey : I think the answer is, taking up both of our closets. Ashleigh : I don't even know how to look for a job. Where do you start? Casey : OK, job or no job, you can't drop your office. I need you. Laura wants to pass a bylaw instituting an annual hayride mixer. Ashleigh : I will fight her every step of the way. Casey : You will? Ashleigh : Yes, I will. If I can find a job working 25 hours a week at 20 dollars an hour, that's $500. Or I could find a job working two hours a week at 250 dollars an hour. Casey : Either way you're still my social chair? Ashleigh : Till death do us part. Casey : Yeah! Ashleigh : So... What do you think happened with Max? That whole Runaway Bride thing was so weird. Casey : I know, right. EXT. OMEGA CHI HOUSE Evan : Cal! What do you think? Calvin : I see you made a choice. Evan : We all make choices. Frannie : And we're choosing to go to Martha's Vineyard for a very long weekend. Casey drive in front of them... Calvin : Careful, Ev. Evan : See you next week. Here we go. CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : You are here to chew me out for losing Casino Night. Casey : I'm here to say that I was wrong. I've always seen you as my nerdy little brother. You're not little anymore. I see you as an adult now. Rusty : Why now? Casey : Because we wouldn't have had a chance to win Casino Night without you. Rusty : But we didn't win. Casey : True. But the way you carried yourself, catching Jason cheating, that thing with your arm, that was pretty cool. Rusty : My big sis thinks I'm cool. Casey : I said you did something cool. Two hours. No, really, I'm timing you, so... Rusty : OK, I'll gas it up for you. Casey : Just avoid mechanical horses. CRU – Max’s room Casey knock on Max’s door... Max opens the door... Max : Oh. Hey... Casey : You bailed with barely a word last night. Max : Yeah. You know, I thought I'd... That's not entirely true. I just... had to go. Casey : No worries. Just wanted to make sure you're OK. Max : Thank you. I... Casey : Yeah. You? Max : What? Casey : You started to say "I." Max : Did I? Casey : Yeah. What were you going to say? Max : I forget. Casey : Did you have fun last night? Max : Yes. My first fraternity party. Casey : Very exciting. What do you normally do for fun? Seriously? Max : Dr. Who? Casey : The British guy with the hat? That's neat. We should get you out more. Have you ever been to Doblers? Or maybe we could just fly to Vegas and practice our card counting superpowers in the big time. Max : Sure. Maybe. I don't know. I gotta go, though. Bye Casey.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x03 - Let's Make a Deal"}	foreverdreaming
EXT. CRU Casey : So, if the light we're seeing is millions of years old, then the stars might already be dad. Max : But it's not just the stars that are in the past. It's everything. Even you looking at me now. Casey : So, you're not you? Max : No, I'm me. But you're seeing me one billionth of a second ago. Casey : So... everything is history and relationships are just memories. Max : Except for the light. Casey : Which is in its own present, our past and someone else's future. Max : The Hawking of Hearts. Casey : You know what that means? ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Casey just wakes up. She was dreaming... Casey : What? Why are you staring at me? Ashleigh : You were making out with your pillow. Casey : No, I wasn't! Ashleigh : Must have been an awesome dream. You were drooling. Casey : I don't drool! Much. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : All right. Lightning round. Loves rainy sunday mornings, is a Pisces, and can't live without cuts two, three and eight from “The Best of Sting”. Ferret. Pickle : He is such a romantic. Rusty : Afraid of apricots? Ben Bennett : Wingnut! Pickle : That's Heath. Rusty : Heath is correct. Wingnut? Ben Bennett : This active recognition test is gonna be tough. I mean, likes, dislikes, embarrassing secrets... Pickle : I know more about the actives now than I ever wanted to know. Rusty : Except for this guy. Joshua Whopper. Pickle : Isn't that the guy who's always carrying a Knfe? Rusty : Whoever it is, we better figure it out or we're scrubbing toilets until initiation. Beaver : Empty your wallets. Ben Bennett : Why? Heath : Lunch buffet. Rusty : You're shaking us down for a strip club? Beaver : It's not just any strip club. It's Gentlemen's Choice. We need to make a Cappie trip. Rusty : Last time Cappie went to the strip club was when he was... Oh, no. Heath : No one mentions Rebecca. Rusty : Hey, Cap, so you broke up with Reb... Ben Bennett : You weren't supposed to... Cappie : What's going on? Beaver : Nothing. Why? Cappie : Beaver. I'm fine. Pickle : So, I can get my money back then? Beaver : No. Cappie : Any last minute questions on the active recognition test? ART's in two days. Rusty : I have one. I took the liberty of downloading National's list of current actives. Ben Bennett : Suck up. Rusty : There's an active on the list no one has ever seen. Or ever met. Who's Joshua Whopper? Cappie : Extra points for being industrious, Spitter, but don't worry about him. He's not on the test. Rusty : OK, yeah, but according to the rules of the Arts, each pledge must know every active. Cappie : But not Joshua. Trust me. Leave the Whopper alone. Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Ashleigh : Rebecca's been eating her feelings since 7:00 this morning. It's her second box of cereal. Casey : I wonder if she'll give away her clothes. I wouldn't mind that Marc Jacobs cocktail dress. It was already pretty tight on her. Ashleigh : She and Cappie broke up. Casey : What? Really? Ashleigh : Looking for a job is way harder than I thought. What about babysitting? Casey : And what about your irrational fear of little people? Ashleigh : Good point. Casey : You know, I'm actually thinking of hiring an astronomy tutor. Ashleigh : I could help. I love looking at the stars Casey :. That's what I thought the class was going to be about when I signed up for it. But all we're learning about is black holes, dark matter, alternative universes. Ashleigh : Why don't you drop it? Casey : I still need one science course for general ed. So, who do you think I can get to help me? Ashleigh : Ivy took it last semester. Casey : Ivy? I think we're in a fight or something. Ashleigh : What about Rusty? He's science-y. Casey : And that worked out so well the last time. Ashleigh : Oh, wait. What about Max? Casey : Max? Rusty's friend Max. Ashleigh : He must know all about astronomy. He worked for NASA or something I think. Casey : He's probably pretty busy. Ashleigh : Yeah, you're right. Casey : Still, it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks. KT HOUSE - Hallway Ben Bennett : Joshua Whopper looks exactly like Abraham Lincoln. Rusty : You see the problem? Pickle : The 16th president of the United States was a Kappa Tau? Rusty : Guys, get the fact that Abe is about 200 years old and was not a Kappa Tau. This is a trap. We have no idea who Joshua Whopper is. Which means, when Cappie said, "Trust me," he probably meant, "Don't trust me. Which means Josh Whopper is going to be on the active recognition test. And after every one of us fails we're going to be breaking out the gas masks, Hazmat suits, and we're gonna go on porcelain patrol until initiation. We gotta find the Whopper. Ben Bennett : How do we do that? Pickle : We look for a guy with a beard and a funny hat. CRU – Max’s room Max : Oh. It's you. Casey : Yes. And you're you? You're probably wondering what I'm doing here. Max : Would... Actually, I was thinking about... That's not really relevant now. So... Casey : I really need a tutor for Intro to Astronomy. And I know it's not your major specifically, but Rusty mentioned you had some connection to NASA. Which got me thinking... I really need help with the class. Max... NASA... So I'm here. Max : Maybe this isn't such a good idea. It didn't go too well with blackjack and Casino Night. Casey : Well, I'm big on second chances. Actually, I'm big on third and fourth chances, too. Max : Could you do tonight? 8:00 here? Casey : Sounds... intimate. Max : Well, it's just... where I live. CRU - Administration Pickle : Excuse me, Miss Brown? Sorry. I'm the new guy. And I don't want to be a nark or anything, but I just saw a woman from admissions throw away her recycle bin 'cause she said she hated the Earth. Woman : Was it Constance? Big redhead? Show me, please. Thank you. I can't stand her. I mean, who does that? I've talked to her before about this... While Pickle and the woman leave, Rusty and ben Bennett come... Rusty : Password protected. Ben Bennett : How long is this gonna take you to hack in? Rusty : Well, with the 256 bit encryption and double coded keys, between two hours and never. I need her password. Uh... Jordan. Sarah... Arlo... Ben Bennett : Hey, you know what I always do? I always tape my password to my top drawer. Rusty : No one does that anymore. Both : Password. Rusty : All right, we're in. Joshua Whopper. Physics 405, English Lit 320, Chemistry 401. Straight A's? Ben Bennett : Wait a second. There's a Kappa Tau that's smarter than you? Rusty : Yeah, it appears so. And he has a class tomorrow at Lasker Parks Hall. Let's go. MICHAEL’S HOME Calvin : “40 Year Old Virgin” is a masterpiece. Although “Knocked Up” runs a close second. Michael : But don't you think Judd Apatow's movies can be... a little misogynistic, kind of hm? Calvin : Was it the chest waxing thing? Michael : No, it was the "you know how I know you're gay" thing. It objectifies gay life. Calvin : So now you're gonna teach me about being gay? If I recall, last night I taught you a few things. Michael : A point taken. But how many other gay people do you hang out with? I mean, besides me? Calvin : Is that a trick question? Fine. None. Michael : Then you have to admit that your world view is slightly limited. Which is... why I was thinking we could go to Gentlemen's Choice. Calvin : You want to go to a strip club? Michael : No, the other Gentlemen's Choice. The hottest... Well... only gay bar in Cyprus. We'll meet up with some of my friends, we'll hang out. Calvin : Trash Judd Apatow... Michael : You've never been to a gay bar, have you? Calvin : I just don't really like tight shirts and guys in Daisy Dukes. Michael : Don't mock what you don't know. Besides, that's not Gentlemen's Choice. Come on. It wouldn't hurt you to actually hang out with other gay people every now and then. Who knows. Maybe you'll even meet a friend or two. It's time to broaden your horizons. Calvin : Spread my big gay wings? CRU - Dormtroms Max : So you break through the line and no one touches you, you keep on rolling. That's inertia. That's Newton's first law of motion. Then you power right through an undersize fullback. That's Newton's second law, force. Guy : Hell, yeah. Max : OK. Then the third law. You ht the quarterback, knock him out cold. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Guy : Hell, yeah. Casey : Max, I was hoping to understand gamma ray bursts. Max : OK, yeah. That's a rocket of electromagnetic energy created by a collapsing star. Kind of a good and bad thing if one heads our way. Casey : Bad first. Max : Well, the world would plunge into darkness, polar ice caps would melt and deep sea creatures would rule the earth. Casey : And the good? Max : Well, no more student loans. Casey : Got it. But that would never happen, right? Max : Casey. No matter how invested you are in your view of the universe, you have to be prepared for things to change. Casey : Are we talking about gamma rays or something else? Max : I don't know... Maybe neither. EXT. CRU Rusty : That's not something you see every day. Ben Bennett : What? Rusty : Cappie on campus. CRU - Class Rusty : Dr. Shapiro? Teacher : If you have any questions about today's lecture, my office hours are this afternoon from 3:00-5:00. Rusty : No, I'm fine with today's lecture. Actually, I'm not even in your class. I just had a question about one of your students. I'm looking for Joshua Whopper. Teacher : It's a lecture class. I don't know everyone individually. Rusty : Are you sure? Teacher : Well, anyone with an A in my class doesn't come to office hours. Sorry, gentlemen. Ben Bennett : Well, we're dad. Cappie's gonna ask us who Joshua Whopper is, and we got zip. Rusty : Wait. It's crazy. What if Josh... No. Cappie on campus... Ben Bennett : Why are you talking to yourself? I'm standing right here. Rusty : OK, Joshua's smart. He's secretive. He has dozens of majors. He hangs out at Lasker Parks Hall. What if Joshua Whopper is Cappie? EXT. CRU Ashleigh : Wow. That sounds great. I'm gonna be a naturalist intern. Casey : You'll have to wear hiking boots. Ashleigh : So, how was your tutoring session? Casey : I'm less confused about astronomy and more confused about Max. OK, here it goes. I kind of like him. Ashleigh : Oh, he's cute. Weird, but cute. So, how was it? Was it all gushy and romantic? Or did he get all science-y and weird? Casey : Neither. Both. I don't know. Honestly, I'm not sure what happened. Ashleigh : Wait. He's not just an Evan/Cappie in a dork suit, is he? Casey : No, that's the strange thing. He's totally unlike Evan or even Cappie. Max is so far outside my normal dating pool, I can't read him at all. It's like all the usual fraternity/sonority dating rituals have been tossed out the window. We're from different planets. Ashleigh : You need a translator. Someone who can speak both Greek and geek. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : French maid, hers. Amazon princess, hers. Rusty : What happened with you and Rebecca? Cappie : We figured we were headed in different directions, so better to cut it off now before anyone got hurt. Devil temptress, hers. Super chick. That's mine. Where are the bracelets? Rusty : And you're OK? Cappie : You mean do I need to go and get hammered at Gentlemen's Choice, pay a bunch of naked girls to pretend they love me? No. That sounds like fun. Rusty : You're not joshing me? Cappie : Nope. I'm not joshing you. Oh, let's see. Margaret Thatcher. Mine. Rusty : Margaret Thatcher was one whopper of a prime minister? Maybe she was listening to Josh Groban, watching Judge Wapner. Cappie : I'll bite. Rusty : I know who Joshua Whopper is. Cappie : No. You don't. Rusty : Oh, yeah, I do. Dozens of majors, secretive about his name, smarter than he lets on and he was walking out of Lasker Parks Hall. I saw him. He's you. You're him. Cappie : Rusty, you don't want to go there. Rusty : Why not? I figured it out, didn't I? I know your real name. Cappie : You don't. Because if you dug a little deeper, Nancy Drew, you would have discovered that Joshua Whopper has been a student at CRU since 1984, which just so happens was a dark time for the Kappa Taus. "Thanks to the invention of the microchip, CRU was finally able to track grades by computer. And the administration began to enforce Greek minimum grade point averages. It didn't appear that the Kts would survive. The only person in the house making grades was a pledge. Lasker Parks, a computer science geek." Rusty : Lasker Parks? He invented the... Cappie : Uh, Spitter, don't interrupt. "So, Lasker enlisted his pledge class for help. They stole the password to the university mainframe and for their pledge project they created Joshua Whopper, a computer program. A safeguard to ensure that the Kts will never again fall prey to grade standards. Every semester the program chooses random large classes and enrolls Joshua Whopper and awards him an A." Rusty : So, the less attention Joshua Whopper gets, the better. Cappie : Yeah. And don't tell the pledges about him. This is something you're supposed to learn as an active. Rusty : Well, why do we even need him? It's... Cappie : Have you seen our grades? Without Josh they would have shut us down years ago. So, you understand why this has to remain a secret? Rusty : Totally. Oh. Hey, you forgot this. Cappie : Nope. That's mine. EXT. CRU Ashleigh : So, it turns out a food service coordinator is actually... Calvin : The guy who makes the French fries. Ashleigh : Exactly. Which is why I told him I'd go broke keeping my pores clean. Calvin : I'm sure they understood. Ashleigh : I know, right? Plus, if I took the job I'd have even less time to see you. Calvin : Yeah, I know. It has gotten pretty intense with Michael and me. Ashleigh : I knew you guys would ht it off. Hey, why don't we all go to Dobler's tonight? You treat this time and then I'll pay when I get a... Maybe... Maybe I could be a bouncer. Calvin : I'm actually hanging out with Michael tonight. Ashleigh : That's... good. Calvin : But you should come. Ashleigh : Really? Calvin : Yeah. I wouldn't mind the company. We're going to Gentlemen's Choice. Ashleigh : The strip club? Calvin : No, the other one. Ashleigh : Oh. Yay ! CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : ... is afraid of the color green, has never eaten chicken, and likes to chase geese? Rusty : Jeremy. Dale : Dude, do you honestly want these guys to be your brothers? I don't even know how most of these kids got into CRU. And what kind of parents name their kid Ferret? Rusty : You promised not to disparage. Dale : I'm sorry. I'm just not impressed, that's all. Here's a winner. "Barks at parked cars." Rusty : That's Pillbox. Dale : Sadly correct. This guy has some promise. Smart, sab, good family life. Real name? Rusty : I don't know. I give up. Dale : Joshua Whopper. Someone knock on door... Rusty : I think we're done. Dale : Who is this guy? Is he smarter than me? Rusty opens the door... Dale : Hey, Casey. Just... helping out your little brother here. You know, 'cause I care. Casey : Rusty, can I talk to you for a sec? In private? Rusty : Sure. Dale : No, no. You guys don't have to leave. I'll just, uh, listen to my music. You know, meditate. Expand my mind. Rusty : What's up? Casey : Rusty. There's someone on the honors engineering floor who I kind of like. Rusty : Here? Casey : I kind of like... Max. Rusty : I should warn him. Casey : What do you mean? Rusty : 'Cause you date like Sherman marched, Casey. With scorched Earth and broken spirits left in your wake. Casey : OK, A: ouch, and B: all I need you to d is find out if he likes me. That's it. Rusty : That's just way too junior high dating strategy. Casey : How would you know? Rusty : OK, A: ouch. And B: because I read your diary. Casey : Fine. Please, Rusty. Please, Rusty, please! Rusty : OK. Stop, stop. All right, I'll do it. Casey : I knew I could count on you, little brother. Rusty : I'm the best. Casey : Yes, you are. Casey leaves... Dale : Max? Really? The guy's a freakin' loser. KT HOUSE - Hallway Someone ring the frontdoor bell...Cappie opens the door... Woman : Hi. I'm looking for Joshua Whopper. Cappie : Why would you... Why would you need to do that? Woman : I'm Claire Golan, Dr. Shapiro's TA, and after some students came to Dr. Shapiro looking for him she checked her midterms. His test is missing, which means Dr. Shapiro's gonna kll me. Cappie : Well, Claire, I'm sorry to hear that, but it was nice knowing you. Woman : Then she'll take it to the Gender Studies Review Board, then the Academic Review Board. Cappie : All those people will have to meet Joshua Whopper? Woman : Yes, they would. Unless I can get this all cleared up. Cappie : Today's your lucky day, because... I'm Joshua Whopper. Woman : You are? Great. Then would tonight be OK, 9:00? Cappie : Sure. For what? Woman : For the make up midterm. While the material's still fresh? Cappie : Tonight, tonight? Woman : That's so cool of you. You're a total lifesaver. Cappie : Hey, Claire, I'm taking two gender studies classes with Dr. Shapiro. Which one is this again? Woman : The Phallus. CRU – Max’s room Rusty : So, you're tutoring my sister now? Max : Yeah, we only did it once. No, I mean tutoring. I'm not... I didn't... I wasn't saying that... Rusty : OK, thank you. Good to know. Dale : I've won a lot of awards too, Max. A lot bigger than the... National Science Foundation gold medal. Max : Oh, that one. I assisted Professor Lowy with his work on fuel cell technology. Dale, maybe you can answer this. Why do they always put the environmental awards on the wooden plaques? Dale : Nobody likes a show-off, Max. Rusty : But with all that studying and tutoring, I bet you don't have much time to date. Max : No. Not really. Dale : European Science Foundation Legion of Honor? Max : Ah, the Neues Schloss Hotel in Zurich is pretty cool. Rusty : It's hard to tell if they like you as much as you like them. So you test the waters... Max : Agreed. Maybe... maybe it'd be smart to... ask a family member. See if the other person's interested... Dale : For heaven's sake, will somebody just say what they really mean? Max, I demand to know your intentions. Max : Is he all right? Rusty : Apparently not. Who's that? She's pretty. Is that your sister? Max : Girlfriend. Dale : Thank you. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : I don't get it. I asked him to tutor me. Why didn't he just say he had a girlfriend? Rusty : Why would he do that? Casey : You're kidding, right? Asking him to tutor me meant I was interested in going out. If he has a girlfriend he should have said no. Rusty : What would you say if you just wanted him to help you with your class? Casey : That I wanted him to tutor me. You really didn't pay very close attention to my diary. You know what? I'm bowing out before this gets super complicated. This is what you get when you try to date amateurs. Will you make sure Max gets it? I owe him for an hour of tutoring. Rusty’s cellphone rings... Rusty : Hey, Cap ! What's, uh... OK, I'll be right there. A few minutes later...In the dining room... Ashleigh : Looks like we have a 1066 here. Rebecca : Serial kller? Ashleigh : Major crime alert. I'm thinking of becoming a student security officer. Rebecca : Their uniforms are hideous. Ashleigh : OK, you know what you need? Rebecca : A bigger spoon? Ashleigh : An evening out with me and Calvin at Gentlemen's Choice. Rebecca : The strip club? Ashleigh : No. The other one. Rebecca : I'll take a pass. I'm not in the mood to hang out in a bar packed with guys. Ashleigh : But these guys are exactly what you need. Gay bars are tailor made for depressed straight girls. There's lots of great music, hot guys that don't ht on you, and all night they tell you you're fabulous. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Rusty : All right, lightning round. Who said a male's masculinity is defined by his relationship with not only his but a woman's phallatical display? Cappie : I have no idea, but it sounds kind of he-she. Rusty : No offense, but we're screwed. This books are scary thick and I can't even wrap my head around the class description in the syllabus. "The thrust of the phallus is how perceptions of masculinity affect psycho, social and interpersonal relationships." Cappie : Rusty, don't go soft on me. Rusty : Cap, I'm bat. This class is really hard. I just can't cram it in fast enough. Cappie : All right. We need a helping hand. Reach under those books. Rusty : What are you thinking? Cappie : We get everybody in here, we bang our heads together, everyone pitches in. If Joshua Whopper's going down he's not taking the rest of us with him. Clearly we've all taken gender roles for granted. KT HOUSE – Living room Beaver : I've never had such clarity before. Maybe we'd be better brothers if we treated each other as sisters. Heath : An open exchange of feelings. Beaver : Sadly, it appears our phalluses have led us astray. Cappie : I'm gonna miss you. I'm gonna miss you, too. Beaver : Now I know I have a heart... because it's breaking. Cappie : And, uh... I think I'm gonna miss you most of all, Scarecrow. Rusty : I'm going with you. Cappie : Right. Sorry. Heath : Hey, Beav, are you... Are you crying? Beaver : Yes, and I don't care. But I didn't get you anything. Ben Bennett : Later. Just take a sip. Pickle : We were thinking about going to the backyard, just blwing some stuff up. All : Yes! ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Max : Hey, Casey? Sorry to bother you. I came to return your check. I can't cash it. Casey : I had a feeling you weren't going to make this easy. Max : No, it's not... Casey : Look. I gave you a check. It's yours. Do what you want. Consider it a lovely parting gift. Clearly, you have some issues. You need to work them out, and I wish you luck with those. Max : No, Casey, you didn't sign the bottom of it. Casey : Right. Great. So I'll just get a pen, then. Max : Casey, wait. He Kisses her... Max : Hmm...Bye... ZBZ HOUSE – Casey& Ashleigh’s room Casey : And then he just left. No, fled. Fled is more the word. He does that a lot. He's so weird. I don't even know why I care. Ashleigh : Well, how was it? Casey : What? The kiss? It was... great. Really great. Which pisses me off even more. Ashleigh : Why? Casey : Because even with all those brains he's just Evan in a dork suit. He has a girlfriend, remember? Ashleigh : Well, maybe he's looking to turn his twosome into a threesome. Casey : Max? Please. He's the sweetest... least corruptible guy in the world. Ashleigh : It's always the quiet ones. Casey : Well, then I'm just gonna yell at him, Ash. Perfect. Where are you going? Ashleigh : Calvin is meeting Rebecca and I at Gentlemen's Choice. Do you want to come? You're going with Calvin to a strip club? Casey : No, the other one. GENTLEMEN’S CHOICE (The Other One) Michael : What do you think? Calvin : It's not so scary. Kind of nice. Michael : And maybe you'll find another gay guy on the planet to talk to. Calvin : Yeah. Chances of that are highly unlikely. Michael : I got it. Calvin : Heath. Heath : Hey. Calvin. Calvin : Heath, this is my boyfriend, Michael. Michael : Hi, Michael. You guys know each other? Heath : Yeah. I'm a Kappa Tau. He's an Omega Chi. We're like, locked in mortal combat. Michael : Mortal enemies. I got it. Ashleigh : Calvin ! Hey ! You want to go this way? Michael : Hey, Calvin. The plan was for you to hang out with gay guys, not straight girls. Calvin : I know, but Ashleigh called me and said Rebecca needed a pick-me-up. Bad breakup. Michael : Say no more. Me and my buddies will handle it. Calvin : So, where's Greg? Heath : I don't know. We broke up about a month ago. Calvin : You broke up with Greg. Heath : Yeah. Guy : Can't we take the night off? Michael : Duty calls. If straight guys weren't so insensitive then we wouldn't be left to pick up the pieces. But they are so this is part of the job. OK, go. Gay Guy : Oh, my God. You two look so fabulous. And crazy hot. Are you gonna dance with me or am I gonna have to call my friends over for some help? Rebecca : We'll dance. Ashleigh : See? Heath : First time here? Calvin : Yeah, first time. Heath : What do you think? Calvin : It's OK. Michael wanted me to make some new friends. Preferably ones that weren't into Judd Apatow. Heath : You know how I know you're gay? Both : You're in Gentlemen's Choice. CRU - Class Cappie : Then Lacan stated that man finds satisfaction for his demand for love in the relation with the woman. And as much as the signifier of the phallus constitutes her as giving in love, which she does not have. Rusty : Yes. What about Furhagen? Cappie : The relationship between man and woman beyond the phallus is the very same as the relationship between the subject and the real of its body. Rusty : Yes, yes. What about...? Cappie : You know, Spitter, the answer to every question is the same. The phallus half of the relationship has a tendency to screw things up. Rusty : Cap? Cappie : I couldn't step up for Rebecca. I couldn't change. She need more. She need real support and I couldn't give it to her. So... I miss her. EXT. Calhoun Hall Casey : There you are. Hey, tutor. I just have one last question. Did you think that kissing me would make me somehow want you more? Who do you think you are? Max : That's two questions. Casey : Regardless of what you might have heard, I'm no longer about crazy, dysfunctional triangles. I'm not going to be a one man girl to a guy who's a two girl man. I mean, why can't anyone just have a normal relationship? Is that so difficult? Max : No. Casey : What would your girlfriend say if she knew what you were up to? Max : She's not exactly my girlfriend anymore. Casey : If she's not exactly your girlfriend anymore, then why would you call her your girlfriend to Rusty? And why do you keep a picture of her? Did she break your heart or something? Max : Yeah. Casey : I get it. It's tough. Trust me. I am the queen of not letting go. But you've got to move on. Max : My girlfriend's dad. Casey : Good progress. I know it seems harsh, but admitting that she's dad to you is the first step to moving on. You know, I had to do the same thing with my last boyfriend. It's not like we don't all have old ghosts. Max : My girlfriend, she really is dad. We met freshman year in the dorms. And then just before junior year she discovered this tiny lump on her neck. That's when it started. Casey : I'm sorry, Max. When did she die? Max : About six months ago. Casey : You know, when I was 17, Rusty had this cat that nobody liked. Nobody except for him. She was kind of a cross between a Bengal and an actual Bengal tiger. The day I was nominated for prom queen I wanted to celebrate, so I borrowed my mom's car. And I hadn't driven much, so I was nervous. Then when I pulled out of the garage... Max : You drove over the cat. Casey : And I just compared a dad cat to your girlfriend who died of cancer. It's just I've never... known anyone who died. Except for Rusty's cat. Max : It's OK. You're not the first person who's done it. Casey : Do people talk about cats? Max : I get a lot of different reactions when I talk about her. Which is usually why I try to just avoid the subject all together. It's... It's still tough. You know? And I guess that's why I haven't really gone out with anyone since she died. Casey : Got you. Max : Casey. I don't think now is a good time. And it's not you feeling weird. It's me too. I thought I would be over her, ready to move on. But the more I'm... more I'm around you, the more I think of her. And I just... I like thinking about her. Casey : Well, maybe we should both just say good night. Good night, Max. KT HOUSE – Basement Cappie : What is Beaver's favorite color? Rusty : Chartreuse. Beaver : Reminds me of beer. Heath : Why do we call Brother Doug "Corn Nuts?" Rusty : Myrtle Beach. He went out for a salty ocean swim, laid out naked and roasted his... corn nuts. Beaver : OK, last question, Pledge Spitter. Cappie is your big brother. Tell us something about him that only you would know that you've learned in the last 24 hours. Rusty : Cappie's not Joshua Whopper. Cappie : They gout. My clean a bruder. Beaver : Turn around! EXT. CRU Michael : What do you want to do tonight? Calvin : I suppose watching Superbad would be out of the question? Michael : If you agree to go to a seminar on qeer musicology. Calvin : Yeah, I guess the Apatow Dvds will stay in the closet. Michael : Then how about Gentlemen's Choice? Calvin : You know, I liked that. Michael : Yeah? I noticed. You never mentioned that you knew a Kappa Tau. Calvin : Heath? We... met during rush, you know. It's no big deal. Ashleigh comes... Ashleigh : Oh, my God. I got the job. Girl : And you can start your first exciting campus tour next week. Ashleigh : Oh, my god! I have a job! KT HOUSE - Party Rusty : Hey cap. I'm sorry for messing things up with Joshua Whopper. Cappie : It's OK. Rusty : We can always depend on you. You're the one who got the A in Shapiro's make up exam. Cappie : I got lucky. It actually turned out to be one of the best classes I've never taken. Rusty : You know, sometimes people can change. It just takes the right person. Even phalluses... can grow. Cappie : You should be ashamed of yourself, Spittles. To Joshua Whopper. Too bad Joshua couldn't make his own party. After his stellar showing of the phallus, he's back to work doing what he does best. Making our house a little bit better. Because Joshua Whopper embodies the very best of Kappa Tau. He's unselfish, dedicated and he's always willing to put his brothers first. To Joshua Whopper. CRU – Astronomy class Casey : Andromeda, Pleiades... Orion's belt, Big Dipper, and.... Max : Lyra. Ashleigh said you might be here. Casey : This is the only part of the class I enjoy. But after a while it all starts looking the same. Max : The trick to the constellations is to know the stories behind them. Lyra's my favorite. It was the musical instrument of Orpheus, the greatest musician that ever lived. Casey : I have all his CDs. Kidding. Max : Do you know the story? So, Orpheus loved one thing more than music and that was Eurydice, the most beautiful girl that ever lived. But she died. She was poisoned. And Orpheus could not live without her. So he went down to Hades to bring her back. The ruler of Hades agreed, but there was a catch. If he turned back to look at her face she'd be gone forever. Just before he got to the surface he heard this rock crash behind him, so he turned back to see if she was all right. And that was it. The gates to the underworld slammed shut she was gone forever. Casey : That's terrible. What happened to him? Max : He... He spent the rest of his life wandering the Earth alone. Casey : Do you want to take a look? Max : No. I'm not turning back. They kiss....	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x04 - Gays, Ghosts and Gamma Rays"}	foreverdreaming
CRU Campus Ashleigh : Welcome to the majestic and historic Cyprus-Rhodes University. To our right you'll notice Dressel Hall, which was named for Daniel Dressel, the scientist celebrated for inventing... For inventing... Casey : I can't stand the suspense. Ashleigh : Our campus is huge! And historical. It sucks. I have two days to memorize this entire book before my first tour. An entire book! Casey : Just relax. And think about how, one day soon, you'll be able to... shop again. Ashleigh : If I'll still remember how. I know this building. Coming up on our left is the Cutler Planetarium, the site of Casey Cartwright's first kiss with Max, Somebody, the celebrated polymer science major. Casey : Our first date's tonight. I'm nervous. I haven't dated somebody so... Ashleigh : Tragic? Tragic is hot. Russell Crowe in “A Beautiful Mind” You can be all Jennifer Connelly and save him from the brink. Casey : We're keeping tonight low-key. No psychotic breaks, just dinner. Ashleigh : A Beautiful Meal. Casey : And maybe Dobler's after. Ashleigh : You really like him. You can't stop smiling. It's like your face is broken. Casey : I know. Max and I haven't even gone on an official date. But the other night was so cosmically incredible. Ashleigh : Like Cappie or Evan incredible? Casey : Kind of. Except with Evan it was all about the Greek system and with Cappie it was all about...well... pie. Max is smart. And soulful and wounded. He's swimming in the deep end of life while I've been in the kiddy pool. I think I'm ready to join him. After all, there's more to life than the Greek system and pie, right? Ashleigh : Pie! Gotcha. EXT. ZBZ HOUSE - A few minutes later... Ashleigh : And on our right you'll notice Frannie has parked in your presidential spot. Casey : Look who's back from the Vineyard. He never took me there. Jerk. Ashleigh : Someone peed in your kiddy pool. Casey : Oh, well. It's a beautiful day. We'll park down the street. You can practice walking backwards. Ashleigh : Have fun in the deep end, Case. You know I can't swim! KT HOUSE – Living room Ben Bennett : Horseshoes are a real backbreaker. He couldn't bear to have them cleaned here? You're welcome. Rusty : Wade, I have your rocks. Wade : Pack 'em how I like it. Ben Bennett : And what does he need with the fireworks, anyway? Fourth of July's four months away. Rusty : Real question is, why are we the only ones doing this crap? Beaver : Nachos! Thanks, Spitter. You're the breast. I mean, best. Ben Bennett : Good one, Beav. Rusty : I know Pickle screens his calls o avoid chores. He only answers if I call from an unknown number. Ben Bennett : And Gonzo, that guy's lazier than Paris Hilton's left eye. I haven't seen him at the house. Rusty : If I pick up their slack one more time I'm gonna go postal on their asses. Beaver : Spitter ! What are you trying to do to me here? That's cilantro on my'chos. Rusty : Are you allergic or something? Beaver : I don't like vegetables. Rusty : Cilantro's an herb. Beaver : Which doesn't belong on nachos. Go get new ones. Quickly. Sans herbs. Ben Bennett : You know, I say before tonight's pledge meeting, give everybody a kick in the ass. Kind of redistribute the load. Rusty : It's mail call. My pledge brothers are about to receive my package. Credits DOBLER’S Casey : So, this is Dobler's. Max : What was that? Casey : I guess it's pretty loud in here. What did you think of the restaurant? Max : It was good, it was good. I've never had Korean barbeque before. Casey : It really should be cheaper, since we cooked the food ourselves. Max : Never mind. Casey : Are you not having fun? Max : No. I was gonna say, it... I haven't been on a date since Sarah died. Didn't realize it would be weird. Sorry. Casey : It's fine, Max. Do you want to talk about her? Max : I don't know. A first date conversation about my dad girlfriend might be a little heavy. Casey : Heavy? I love heavy. Max : Ok. Hmm. She grew up in Illinois. Casey : Just like me. What was her major? Max : Philosophy. Casey : That's so interesting. Max : It's not like she wanted to be a philosopher. She always knew she wanted to help people. By studying how various cultures fundamentally differed in how they live then she'd be able to interact more efficiently with them. She wanted to join the Peace Corps and just travel the world doing whatever she could to make it a better place. She was kind of a Buddhist that way. Casey : Sure. That's great. Max : That felt pretty good. Casey : See? Not too heavy at all. Light. Max : If Sarah were here, she'd say, " Stop talking about me, talk to your date." Tell me, Casey, what's... What's on your mind? Casey : Well, actually, this girl, Frannie, she stole my parking spot at the house. She and I have this whole... You know what? Never mind. It's so not important. Should we get drinks or something? Are you thirsty? Because I am dying! I meant to say I'm dying of thirst. Max : Got it. I'll get us a couple of beers. CYPRUS RHODE RESTAURANT Michael : This is the nicest restaurant in town. Calvin : Evan's treating. He insisted. Michael : Really? Why? Calvin : We haven't talked since he sold his soul. Michael : I'm assuming they pay well. Calvin : Hi. Chambers? Couldn't we have had dinner someplace normal? Michael : Maybe for Evan this is normal. Evan : Hey. I was beginning to think you guys ditched us for a better offer. Calvin : Well, we were meeting Donatella in Barcelona for tapas, but she had a case of the vapors. Michael : It's my fault. I'm desperately trying to finish my dissertation. I just have to dot some I's and cross some T's and then I'm officially overeducated and underemployed. Frannie : Is it too early to toast to your accomplishment? Evan : It's never too early to toast. You want to do the honors? Michael : Oh. Ok. Sure. Calvin : So, Frannie, how was Martha's Vineyard? Frannie : Gorgeous. The house was indescribable and the staff were so warm and welcoming. Evan : So, Michael, after the dissertation? Michael : The job hunt begins. Just getting an interview for a professorship is impossible. Frannie : Well...It'll be tough.Who's tougher than you?Evan said the B-minus you gave him was the lowest grade he's ever gotten. Calvin : And O'Toole's failing your class for the third time. Michael : Tough's got nothing to do with actually getting the job. A lot of it's who you know. Waiter : Have you decided on a wine? Calvin : Just pick something reasonable. Evan : Michael, you, the French expert, what's the wine you'd order if money was no object? Michael : The'92 Montrachet. Waiter : Excellent choice, sir. Michael : I'm really excited about this wine. I first heard about it when I was in France my freshman year. It's supposed to be amazing. KT HOUSE – Living room Ben Bennett : Before Wade and Cappie join us for our weekly pledge meeting... Wait a second. Where's Gonzo? KT Guy 1 : He had a thing, or something. Ben Bennett : And this is my point. I feel a few of us pledges are being a tad lazy when it comes to our pledge duty. KT Guy 2 : Easy, champ, I don't think I like where this is going. Rusty : No, he's right. Today, for instance, we had to get lunch for Beaver, rocks for Wade, fireworks for Heath... KT Guy 3 : Judas. Rusty : Who said that? KT Guy 2 : What martyrs. I had to clean under Ferret's bed. Want to know what's on all those tissues? No, you don’t. KT Guy 1 : I had to wash Jeremy's hair with scented oils on Tuesday. Smell my hands. Ben Bennett : We've all had to do that! KT Guy 3 : Judas! Rusty : Who keeps saying Judas? Cappie : Boys, Boys ?? What's all the racket down here? Pickle : Ben and Rusty are all like, "Hey, we do more pledge work than you do." Everybody else is like, "No way, man, we totally do more pledge work." Rusty : I had to mulch the entire front yard. KT Guy 2 : You're coming at us with mulch? Ben Bennett : We've all did that. Rusty : You look at me like... Cappie : Quiet! Rusty : I do this for fun. Cappie : We hear your concerns. Pledge responsibilities are taking their toll. You all work very hard and maybe it's time for us to celebrate that. Wade : Are you thinking Old Folks Home weekend, Cap? Cappie : I am, indeed, Wade. Ben Bennett : Wait. Philanthropy? Cappie : No, not philanthropy. Wade : Old Folks Home is a classic. Cappie : Classic. Wade : Every spring, usually about this time, the KT men lock themselves inside the house and engage in a 24 hour period of drinking… Cappie : Drinking. Wade : TV… Cappie : TV. Wade : Card playing… Cappie : Love cards. Wade : Fine meals. And other fratelicious fun. Rusty : Wouldn't it be better with girls? Cappie : I admire your libido, but while all other KT parties are about girls... Wade : Old Folks Home is about pledge/active bonding. Cappie : Bonding. Wade : And giving you all a sneak peek of what it will be like when you become actives and move in. Cappie : So, all you pre-actives, be here with your sleeping bag and party stamina tomorrow afternoon. Rusty : Campout. ZBZ House - Kitchen Casey : Who got dumped? Laura : Frannie bought a ton of marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers. We're making s'mores in the oven. Mandi : Tell Casey your great idea. Casey : What great idea? Frannie : Well, I know how busy you are as the interim president, and how hard it must be to also function as the pledge educator. Here, let me. And I'm just afraid that you, or we, may be losing sight may be losing sight of one of ZB's most valuable resources, the pledges. Here. Let me. Rebecca : We smell chocolate! Frannie : Girls, have some please. Anyway, I thought I could do my sisterly duty and offer to relieve your responsibilities. After all, I served as the pledge educator before I was elected president. Laura : We think it makes sense. Mandi : You have sort of slacked off with the pledges this semester. Casey : Don't you think it would be hard on the pledges, to change leadership midstream like that? Rebecca : I'll survive. ZBZ Pledge : Couldn't care less. Frannie : And a good leader delegates. Casey : Thank you. I'd love for you to take the pledge educator reins. That'd be great. Frannie : Thanks, Case. We'll have so much fun. EXT. CRU Ashleigh : Built in 1927, the Katherine Anne Findley Memorial Library houses over 1.5 million volumes of books and is outfitted with nearly 50 miles of shelving. Doesn't that sound kind of braggy? Casey : No, it's fascinating. So, my first date with Max was a bit of a mess. His girlfriend wanted to right the wrongs of the world, the only injustice I could talk about was Frannie stealing my parking spot. Ashleigh : Plus, she's pledge educator now? Casey : I'm not gonna let that little stuff get to me. If some pledge class participation makes her happy, then who am I to deprive my mortal enemy of that small pleasure in life? I just want to focus on swimming in the deep end with Max. Ashleigh : As long as you're being yourself. Casey : You know better than that. You can't truly be yourself until date nine. It's like this tour. You lead with bragging before you reveal that every Saturday night some drunk couple has sex in that fountain. Ashleigh : I'd rather know that stuff up front. So, when's your next date? Casey : Tonight. But I thought we'd do something more meaningful than Dobler's so I suggested that we go to the drama club's Shakespeare in the park. Ashleigh : How romantic. Casey : Let's hope so. Ashleigh : Wait. Where are we? Casey : This can't be good. KT HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Pre-active. I do like the sound of that. Cappie : All right. Whippersnappers, time to get to work. Pickle, whip up some Jell-O salad. Woodchuck, take this cane and bat the filth out of the couch cushions. Wade : Pickle, you're on keg pumping duty. Pickle : Wait, guys. Do I make the Jell-O salad before I work the keg? Wade : This is a torch. Find Jeremy for further instructions. Pickle : After the keg? During? Cappie : Pickle, figure it out. Arrowhead, take these kneepads and go see Beaver. Disperse! Rusty : I thought we were getting a preview of living in the house like an active. Cappie : So it is. Over the next 24 hours you and your pledge brothers will watch us be actives, so you know what you have to look forward to when you're made active. You're still pledges and pledges need to know their place. As my very own big brother, Egyptian Joe, said to me at our Old Folks Home event, "If you want to live in a democracy, don't buy store-bought Rice Krispie treats." Rusty : What the hell does that mean? Cappie : I was a pledge. It wasn't my place to ask. These are for you. KT HOUSE – A few minutes later… Beaver : Human remote, find blood sport on TV. I want to see dudes fight. Rusty : Beav, I've been through every channel four times already. It's not on. Do you have to use the megaphone? Wade : Hey, watch your Van Damme mouth, human remote. Now change the channel! Leave it on the Spanish channel for now! I've got an idea. Beaver : Chesty Spanish beauties. OK. Cappie : Human remote, how you holding up? Rusty : I'm exhausted. And my eyes are klling me from standing so close to the television. Cappie : That's the spirit. Hey, could you make me a Chicago-style hot dog? Listen, Spitter, I know you're tired. I know you're worn down. But there's one thing that you shouldn't forget. The celery salt on the Chicago hot dog. That's what makes it delicious. Pickle, mush. Beaver : Spitty, can you bring back a couple of dogs for me and Waderito? Spitty? Two. Rusty : Hey, Ben, can you help me with the hot dogs? Ben Bennett : It's hot dogs, Cartwright. I've got a delicate crème brulée situation here. Not burning myself and the plastic is damn near impossible. Rusty : No, Ben, come help me with the hot dogs! Ben Bennett : Hot dogs. Right. Got it. Cappie : God, enough. I'm taking it. EXT. CRU Calvin : Last night didn't bother you at all? Michael : I thought the escargot were a little chewy. Is that what you mean? Calvin : The French food, fancy wine. I didn't even know Evan liked that kind of stuff. How much was that wine, anyway? Michael : Four hundred a bottle. Calvin : You guys drank three bottles. Michael : I don't even have a hangover. It was like, magic wine. Calvin : Yeah, for 1,200 bucks, it should drive you home and tuck you into bed. I don't care if you have Oprah money, that's crazy. Michael : Look, if you're concerned about Evan, don't judge him. Just be there for him if or when he needs a friend. Calvin : Can I judge Frannie? Michael : If it makes you feel better. Cal, to a person like Evan, 1,200 bucks is like me taking you to the movies. I just wish I was the one who could lavish you with expensive dinners. Calvin : I don't mind that you're poor. I just prefer you to not use the word "lavish" again. It's weird. Michael : Judging. Calvin : Sorry. EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Casey : Oh, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! Frannie : You leaving, Case? Casey : This is my spot, Frannie. Frannie : I need to unload some stuff for tonight. Casey : What's tonight? Frannie : A lock-in with the pledges. Casey : Oh, I didn't know about that. Frannie : Why would you need to? Presidential approval isn't required for a lock-in. Casey : Yeah, true. What's all the stuff? Frannie : Oh, nothing. Arts and crafts, gift bags. Casey : What kind of gift bags? Frannie : Oh, picture frames, t- shirts, little pads. I'm kind of running late, Casey, so if you're going... Casey : I'm not leaving. I mean, I'm leaving to go on a date, but my car's staying here. In my spot. I was just getting a CD out of my car. Frannie : Then why were you pulling out? Casey : The stereo only ejects Cds if the car's in reverse. It's better for the environment that way, I guess. It's a hybrid. Regardless, the car is staying here. Not me. See? I got it. KT HOUSE – Living room Wade : Hajume! That means, begin. All : Yeah. Woodchuck : I don't want to fight you, Rusty. I wanted to yesterday when you were being such a pain in the ass about pledge duties, but not like this, not for them. Rusty : It'll all be fine, all right? Just give Ben Bennett enough time to get the... Hey, Cap. Cappie : Rub this grease all over your body. It'll make it impossible for Woodchuck to get you in a choke hold. Where's Ben Bennett? He needs to grease up too. I got five big ones on him against Stork. Rusty : Cap! I cannot fight Woodchuck. He's too much man. It's scary. Cappie : Dude, the grease will work. Ben Bennett : fre! Everybody out! We gotta go! Cappie : fre? Quick, go! Everybody, quick! Go! Go, go, go! Oh, man, that was close. Thank god we had the fre alarms. Beaver : The pledges! Cappie : Wait, we don't have fre alarms. Beaver : They're locked inside. They'll be brned alive! Drop and roll! Cappie : Beav, there's no fre. Seems we've fallen victim to a pledge prank. All that alcohol might've impaired our judgment. I've read it can do that Beaver : They just mooned us. Cappie : Except for Rusty. He just showed his underpants. A pledge insurgency. I didn't think they had it in them. Beaver : What do we do now, Cap? Cappie : Well, now... we get back inside that house. SHOW – Casey & Max’s date Actress : To think that Caesar bears such rebel blood that will be thaw'd from the true quality... with that which melteth fools. So in the world,'tis furnish'd well with men, and men are flesh and blood... Max : Casey ? You're late. And wet. Casey : I'm so sorry. I walked. Max : So, you're... sweaty? Casey : Huh? Oh, no. I cut through the dean's estate right as his sprinklers turned on. I wanted to call, but my phone got water on it. It's broken. Max : Let me see it. Maybe it's not broken-broken. If you need to make a call, check with Brutus. He's wearing a Bluetooth headset for some reason. Actor 1 : Great Caesar! Actress : Doth not, Brutus, bootless kneel? Actor 2 : Speak, hands, for me! Casey : And Caesar is a blonde chick? Sorry, Max, this isn't really the evening I had planned. Max : It's OK. I'm glad you're here now. Actress : Et tu, Brute? Casey : That bitch. Max : Caesar? I don't think it was her fault. Casey : Max, I really have to go. Max : Is everything OK? Casey : Yeah, I just... I have to go. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to explain it all to you on our ninth date. I'll call you. Max : OK, bye. KT HOUSE - Hallway Rusty : Make sure the basement windows are locked. We've got to barricade these doors! Arrowhead : Upstairs windows secure. Just in time. Hedgehog was shimmying up the gutter pipe. He's a little bit ninja. Beaver : Let us in! Rusty : Ben Bennett, Pickle, help me push this bookshelf. Good. Kitchen? Ben Bennett : Wait, wait, wait. Is the siege over? Arrowhead : No way. They're out there, scheming. I can feel it in my bones. Ben Bennett : Dude, chill, chill, chill. Rusty : They're retreating. Pickle : They're heading toward town. Maybe they're going to Dobler's. Rusty : Yeah, drink off their anger. When they get a nice little buzz they'll think we're awesome for pulling such a cool prank. Arrowhead : What do we do now? Ben Bennett : Let's dance it out, man. Come on. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : Hey, shouldn't you be out with Max? And what's with the wetness? Casey : I know what she's doing. Ashleigh : Who? Casey : Frannie McBrutus. The pledge lock-in, the gift bags, friggin' s'mores. I should've known. She's solidifying her power base among the freshmen. Ashleigh : Frannie can't run for president again. It's against national rules. She was officially removed. Casey : But that doesn't mean she can't find someone to run against me. Ashleigh : She did invite all the officers over for the lock-in tonight. Casey : You see? She's Karl Rove with hair extensions. She'll talk someone into running then use the pledges to get them elected president, then she'll be pulling all the strings, unraveling the sweater that is my life. Ashleigh : OK, did Max see you like this, 'cause you kind of got crazy eyes. Casey : I can't talk to him about this stuff. It'll just sound ridiculous. Once I win the presidency, then I can dive back into the deep end with Max. But right now I need to borrow your phone so I can deal with this hot Frannie mess. CRU – Michael’s office Evan : I was just meeting with my Econ professor. Thought I'd stop by. I hope I'm not interrupting. Michael : You are, thank god. I'm grading exams. Now I can give you this thank you note in person. Evan : You didn't have to do that. Michael : I'm a compulsive Miss Manners freak, so I kinda did. It was my pleasure. Evan : In fact, when we left the restaurant, I started thinking. My mom is on the alumni board at Princeton, so she could make a call if you think that might help you. Michael : Really? She would do that? She doesn't even know me. Evan : Well, she knows me and I know you. And like you said, it's all about who you know, right? Michael : That would be unbelievably generous. Evan : Happy to help. Maybe you can help me with O'Toole. It's obvious he's gonna fail French yet again. So I was hoping you could intervene? Michael : You mean tutor him? Evan : Yeah, no, he's tried tutors. He's tried practice tests. We even force fed him a wheel of brie. The guy is just allergic to French. Michael : Why do you care if he passes my class? Evan : Well, he's a brother in need. And I like helping needy people. Call me a philanthropist. It's not like he needs an A. He's taking it pass/fail, so just pass him. What's the harm? Michael : I don't change grades, Evan. Well, no harm in asking, right? And just remember, if you change your mind it could change your life. My mother is a very persuasive woman. People say I take after her. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : Frannie, can I steal you for a sec? Frannie : Date over already? Don't get discouraged. There are more fish in the sea. Casey : I left my date early. I couldn't stop thinking about us. Frannie : Oh, Case, some girls may want to experiment in college, but I don't. Casey : Oh, Frannie. I can always count on you to make me laugh. Which is why I'd like to clarify that whole "we're sisters, not friends" thing I said after Greek Week. Sisters fight. They say things they don't mean. Frannie : Really? Casey : They also make up. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm sorry. And I'm grateful that you're taking over as pledge educator. Frannie : Casey, I'm really glad that you said that. It must've taken an awful lot of courage. Casey : So, truce? Frannie : Friends close, enemies closer? That's Politics 101, poodle, and I believe I was your professor. You're gonna have to do a lot better than that. Pledges and officers, time to start the lock-in. Tonight's agenda will be as follows: First we will make collages expressing our hopes and dreams and then we will have a share circle. And then after that we... Casey : I'll get it. Before we start Frannie's way fun collages, I thought I'd treat the pledges to delicious gelato, courtesy of Gianni's Gelato. Ashleigh : Gelato's way better than collages. Laura : Officers first, sluts. Hi, there. Casey : The gelato could have been from both of us, but I guess we're not friends. I learned that from you, too. Always have a Plan B. FYI, I'm part poodle, part pit bull. KT HOUSE – Living room Pickle : You should be a professional prank planner, Spitter. I mean, first the farm animals at the O-Chi house, now this. Rusty : I do seem to have a knack for it, but it was Ben Bennett's genius idea of using Heath's smoke bmb. Pickle : Nice. Rusty : Everybody grab one. Dinner is served. Actually, it took all of us pledge brothers to pull this one off. Ben Bennett : You know what? I like to use the term "pre-actives." Rusty : OK, everybody take a deep breath, count to ten. Arrowhead : 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10. Rusty : The power's probably out because somebody didn't pay the bill. Arrowhead : The power company's against us too, man? Man, they're out there with the actives, man. And they got money and electricity, man. Rusty : Arrowhead, calm down. Even if it is the actives, they can't do anything to us from out there. Arrowhead : They're gonna ram us. They're gonna do us like Waco. Game over. Game over! Pickle : They're having a dance party? Rusty : It's psychological warfare. Ben Bennett : We go outside they kll us. We stay inside we go insane. It's like, 20 times in a row with this song! Pickle : The cops ain't coming. They probably just think it's an Omega Chi party. Woodchuck : I say we go out and throw ourselves at their mercy. Ben Bennett : That's a great idea, Woodchuck. Maybe if you talk to them real nice they'll let you stay on as pledge till you're ready for the old folks'home. Rusty : Stop it. The enemy is not us, it's them. If we keep fighting, they win. Ben Bennett : So what are you suggesting? Rusty : Amnesty. Negotiate a settlement without additional punishment. Pickle : Why would they do that? They have all the power. Woodchuck : We pissed them off. Rusty : They need our dues. If they lose the entire pledge class, they won't have enough money to keep this house open. Ben Bennett : And if they lose the class, it'll be harder for them to get pledges in the fall. Rusty : Exactly. EXT. KT HOUSE Omega Chi guy : Pledge problems. Cappie : Yep. Omega Chi guy : Good luck with that. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Casey : Vanilla? I thought you'd have more adventurous tastes. Rebecca : I've had enough adventures recently. I don't need to relive them through my gelato. Casey : Listen, I'm sorry to hear about you and Cap. Rebecca : OK! Way to kll my sugar high. Casey : I just wanted you to know I'm here for you. Rebecca : You deserve a Daytime Emmy, Susan Lucci. Casey : What do you mean? Rebecca : I know campaigning when I see it. Casey : That's not what I was doing. Rebecca : You and Frannie are battling over the pledges. She's trying to start an anti-Cartwright faction. You rallied admirably with the gelato gambit. Casey : Thank you. Look, if the pledges are a swing state, then you're their popular governor. I want your endorsement. Rebecca : We'll see. I'm keeping my options open for now. But for the record, I appreciate how you stood up to Tegan. Thanks. Casey : And for the record, I know how hard it is to get over him. Brenda : Well, you and el presidente are looking mighty cozy. Rebecca : I never mix personal with politics. On the personal front, Casey and I are OK. On the political front, it's open season. Ashleigh : You're smiley. Casey : The polls are tracking in my favor. Frannie : Girls, put down your ice butter and give me your attention. My boyfriend, Evan Chambers, he wanted to make sure this was the most memorable lock-in ever, so he sent us these four masseurs to give us some deep tissue treats, so go grab your robes and get down here for some Swedish satisfaction. Casey : Hey, Ash, get...! Ashleigh : You know I'm on your side. But my chakras are a mess. Frannie : Hey, Casey, maybe you should go first. You're looking a little tense. KT HOUSE – Hallway Rusty : So, we're in agreement? No matter what happens, we stick together. I love you guys. Break! Woodchuck : Where are they? Rusty : I don't know. Arrowhead : We're all gonna die! Rusty : Guys? Guys? Ben? Guys! Guys! Beav, we called a truce. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Brenda : I feel all loosey-goosey. Laura : I just wish I hadn't inhaled all that gelato beforehand. I need to stop eating like a 500 pound man. Frannie : Hey, you guys, I have a great idea. What if we play a game of I Never? Come on. ZBZ Girl : OK. Casey : How original. Ashleigh : Are we gonna play? Casey : We have to. Frannie : What's a better way to learn about your fellow sisters than by sharing secrets? Everyone circle up. Great. Very good. Brenda : How do you play? Rebecca : Were you homeschooled? Each girl says something they've never done. If another girl in the circle has done that thing, she steps into the middle of the circle. Once they step out, the game starts anew. I'll go first. I never have taken public transportation. Laura : I never ran up a 1,500 dollar credit card bill in two weeks. Ashleigh : I see how it is. I never stalked an entire a capella singing group. Was that... Was that you? Brenda : I never had sex with Evan Chambers. Frannie : I never served as ZBZ president without being officially elected. Casey : I never lost my presidency after being forced to resign in scandal. Frannie : I never lost my virginity to Cappie and wrote some stupid poem about it. Come on, Case, get in the center. Casey : Don't you ever touch me again! Frannie : Or what? Casey : Or this! Max : I fixed your phone. Casey : Want some water? A few minutes later…in the kitchen. Casey : So now you know, I'm a girl who... I like to throw drinks in other girl's faces. Max : Is this a compulsive thing, like Tourette's? Casey : No, it was totally optional, and you know what? I enjoyed it! But I can't do it anymore, Max! I can't compete with Sarah. She was a world-saving Buddhist philosopher who died tragically young from cancer. Last week I got visibly upset someone dribbled coffee on my Entertainment Weekly. Max : Nobody likes stains. Casey : I've been trying to be someone I'm not for you. And... it's tiring. And it just doesn't work. No matter how great the guy is... Max : You think I'm a great guy? Casey : Yeah. Max : I think you're great, too. And look, Sarah was not a saint. She smoked weed. Bags and bags of weed. She had severe bouts of serious road rage. I once saw her litter. My point is, I like you. I don't want you to be someone else. You're so... so alive. Casey : You like me because I'm alive? Max : Casey : Pretty broad criteria. Max : You don't do anything halfway. When you needed to learn how to count cards you hired an advisor. You bought me a vintage tux. I still owe you money for that. And I love the way you told me about your ran over cat and then you felt crazy for telling me. I love that you just threw a drink in that girl's face. You're just... you're the first thing that's made me want to come out of my room since Sarah died. I'm so happy when I'm around you. Casey : And I'm happy when I'm around you, too. Max : Should we go finish that girl off in there now? Casey : She can wait. KT HOUSE - Basement Cappie : I'd rather finish my date with you. Everybody out but the pledges and Pledgemaster Wade. Thanks for sitting on them. Beaver : Can I please stay and watch you crush their spirit? Cappie : No, Beav. Tonight's transgression was a major letdown. Because it took you so long to do it. Rusty : What are you talking about? Cappie : You passed the test. No KT would put up with being a maid all day this far into pledging. We wanted you to bond together and revolt. Prove that you've got KT blood coursing through your veins. Pickle : So, you're not gonna punish us? Ben Bennett : Dude, you're a genius. You got us to do exactly what you wanted. Arrowhead : Does free will even exist? Cappie : A question for another day, Arrowhead. Rusty : That's impressive. Cappie : You know what? You guys are impressive. All right, everybody upstairs for drinks and a Steven Seagal marathon. Hard to kll, followed by another showing ofHard to kll. Come on, big guy. Get up there, have fun. Wade : So we wanted them to rebel? Cappie : It's elementary, my dear Wadeson. If our intent wasn't for the pledges to revolt, then the pledges got one over on the actives. The pledges are in control, then the lunatics have taken over the asylum. Black is white, up is down, left is right, boobs are bad, cuddling is good etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, so on and so forth, until we're back to being cavemen. Wade : I guess you're right. Cappie : Do you remember when we were pledges and we... we handcuffed Egyptian Joe to that truck stop urinal? Wade : Yeah. He said it was genius. Then he hazed the crap out of us. Cappie : That's right. Their guard's down now, which is exactly where we want them to be. Wade : For Hell Week. Cappie : Hell, yeah. CRU – Michael’s Office Michael : I look forward to meeting you, too, Dr. Hanson. Merci. Calvin : You look like you're about to faint. Who was that? Michael : That was Princeton on the phone. They want to meet. Evan mom made the introduction. Calvin : That's awesome. He didn't even mention anything to me. I guess he is using his power for good, keeping it a secret, like a superhero. Why don't you look like someone who's about to meet with Princeton? Michael : I'm just a little nervous, I guess. Leaping into the unknown. Calvin : Here's something to calm your nerves. Michael : What's this? Calvin : A gift. It's the bottle of wine you ordered at dinner last night. A case and thought it would be. Nice to give you a bottle to thank you for introducing him to it. Nice guy? Michael : Yeah. Calvin : All right, so let's go back to your apartment and celebrate. Michael : Why not? EXT. CRU Ashleigh : And we're walking, and we're walking and we're walking. Over there is the Michael Grant Fitness Center. Built in 2003 with a 20 million dollar endowment by Michael Grant, CRU's firs ever professional baseball player. Inside you will find state of the art exercise equipment, and lots of toned, sexy people. Moving on, to our right, that there tree is known as Shady Lady. And lounging beneath her awesome boughs are my best friend, Casey, and her new boyfriend, Max. They are CRU's cutest and newest couple on campus. Finding a quality mate is just one of the many advantages to attending Cyprus-Rhodes. And we're walking and we're walking...	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x05 - Pledge Allegiance"}	foreverdreaming
CRU – Max’s room Max : Verdammt! Casey : What did the Germans do now? Max : I'm sorry. Part of my RA job is to plan the resident's annual Galileo party. It's this weekend, I've been trying to find a place for weeks. The Deutsche Hause was my last hope. Casey : I didn't know engineers had theme parties too. Max : Yeah... just this one. But, who cares, it's not important, other things are important. I'll figure something out. Casey : Of course you will, that's why you're a genius. If you can understand that book, you can plan a party. Wait. Party planner. I'm gonna put that on my career shortlist. Max : But you're an English major. Casey : I am, but unlike your major, it doesn't come with a built-in career path. Everyone speaks English, which is why, I was thinking, this might serve as a stepping stone to something else. Max : Like... Publishing? Casey : No! A job at Nationals. I have to go to this convention. So I thought if I have to be dragged away from spending the weekend with you, which is all I really wanna do, the least I could do is make the best of it. Use this weekend for a little networking. I have to do something after graduation. Max : You could do anything... because you're amazing. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Once the candy hits the soda, everybody needs to stand back. Capppie : Waiting will make it all the sweeter. Ah, good afternoon. Refreshing mint... officer? Sergeant at arms? Commandant? Man : fre marshal. Just doing the rounds to make sure all the houses are up to code. Capppie : We might as well keep moving because when it comes to codes, the Kappa Taus have them covered. From Morse to Da Vinci. Man : There's your first violation, right there. There's your second. Credits KT HOUSE – Hallway Capppie : Good afternoon, miss. Can I interest you in a gently used blow-up doll? Girl : That's so disgusting. Rusty : How about a nice throw rug? It's lightly stained, which really just gives it the nice, antique feel. Girl : No... I'm only... Rusty : Are you in the market for... a wig made of human hair? Girl : I'm on my way to class, and I just have to use the bathroom. Capppie : Well, in that case, it'll be 25 cents, cash only. Dammit! It's been five hours and zero sales. Ben Bennett : What about the Tri-Pi that paid me $3 to shave her initials in my chest? Capppie : Thank you, pledge. No. Let's talk about something important. Heath, put the beer down. Beer's for closers only. I said put the beer down! It's ABC. Always Be Closing. Now, you've gotta sell, or you ht the bricks. Or, in this case, we all ht the bricks! Because that son of a bitch fre marshal gave us 30 days to fix all eight of our violations. And to bring our sprinkler system to code. And it's gonna cost us, so we've got to sell. Rusty : Are we gonna lose the house, Cap? Capppie : No ! All we gotta do is raise six grand really, really, fast. ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Evan : Don't get me wrong, you look amazing, but is that gonna be comfortable on a plane? Frannie : Where did dressing for comfort ever get anyone? I dress the way I want people to see me. Even on a plane. And definitely when I'm at the ZBZ convention. Evan : You are going to outshine everyone there, anyway. Frannie : I know. Evan, I'm not one of those needy girls who requires support and encouragement to prop me up. But I appreciate the thought. We need to go! Don't forget to RSVP to the Dean's Spring reception. It's a real honor we've been invited. Evan : Yes, dear. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Casey : Who knew there were so many different shades of pink? Ashleigh : I know! I love it! Don't love that. Casey : What? Ashleigh : How much does it suck that she got to be here, just 'cause she's pledge educator. Casey : No sucking. I'm here to impress Nationals, and since Frannie is persona non grata with them she can't touch me. Now, where's Tegan? She's number one on my ass-kissing list. Ashleigh : I'm not leaving this convention without a summer internship. And I'm not leaving without one of those ZBZ beverage cozies. And bookmarks! They're free! Lizzie : Casey Cartwright?! As I live and ZB breathe. Come here. I'm so happy to see you! Here, in the folds of sisterhood. Casey : Hi, Lizzie. Lizzie : Wait. We forgot the secret ZBZ handshake. Tegan : The registration table is low on seminar packets. Lizzie : I'm on it, Te Te. Poor Te Te's been spreading herself thin between Grand Council duties and the convention. Casey : I was hoping to say hi, talk to her about a summer internship. But maybe I'll wait until she's in a better mood. Lizzie : Good luck with that. CRU – Dale et Rusty’s room Max : Mind if I come in? Dale : Yes? Max : I can't find anywhere to hold the Galileo party on campus, so I'm just letting everyone know it's canceled. I'm sorry. Dale : G-darn it! This campus has endless available locations for undeserving, pervedted students that want to act inappropriately, but when a group of elite academics want to blow off some steam, while debunking Aristotelian physics, everything's booked up? I call bull-hinky. Max : Nobody wants to let us drop objects off the roof. Liability. Dale : Did you tell them the Leaning Tower of Pisa didn't have a problem with Galileo doing that? Max : No. Dale : Well, nice negotiating skills. Rusty : I know who'd let us drop things off the roof. The Kappa Taus. We need the money to fix our sprinkler system. Dale : Rusty, I don't think Galileo Galilei would approve of his theories being evoked in such an unsanitary environment. Max : Galileo lived during the Renaissance. People avoided bathing for fear it'd wash away their spirits, so cleanliness wasn't really a priority. Dale : Unsanitary environment would add an air of authenticity to the proceedings. Know what? I'm not gonna shower till after the party to keep it real. 'Cause that's science. Rusty : What do you think? Max : I think you should shower. Kappa Tau? Great idea, considering we have no other options. Dale : Oh, yeah. I'm gettin' there. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Lizzie : I'm sorry, Madam President. ZBZ President : It's OK, Lizzie. OK. Thank you. Greetings, sisters. My name is Mary-Beth Gentrie-Manning, and I am proud to call myself Grand National President of Zeta Beta Zeta. All : Greetings Madam President. ZBZ President : Please stand for the processional of the Grand Council. All (singing) : Over the years I sing Ashleigh : The first processional occurred in 1876, as a way to honor the nation's centennial. Someone even played a fife. Isn't that awesome? Casey : And scary, that you know that. Ashleigh : I read about it in Zeta Beta Zeta: A History in Words and Pictures. Ever since I became a tour guide, I have a new appreciation for history. Like... Mary-Beth Gentrie-Manning. She grew up next door to Katie Couric's mom. See? History, so juicy. ZBZ President : Of course, we're here today to feel that unique magic that is sisterhood. We can feel it in the warmth of a ZBZ smile that greet us after a long day of traveling to get here. From as far away as California or Phoenix. But that special ZBZ magic expresses itself elsewhere too. In our National by-laws. And so... At every convention, we open up the floor to our sisters. To offer an open forum to any sister who wants to suggest legislative change. ZBZ Girl : I formally propose that we change the official ZBZ anthem from “Our sisters, ourselves”, to “Oh, sister, my sister”. Our current anthem belongs in a funeral and I, for one, am not dad yet. ZBZ President : Proposal duly noted. Yes ! ZBZ Girl : And, once again, I beg you all to reconsider the shamefully superficial rush standards that our chapters use. Instead of the prettiest girls with the best clothes, we should aim for inner beauty. ZBZ President : Duly noted, again, Regina. Thank you. Any other proposals? Frannie : I have one. I move to overturn rule 16-A, which states that removal from office precludes the removed party from ever seeking that office again. Casey : I can't believe this! Ashleigh : I know! “Our Sisters, ourselves” has been the ZBZ anthem for over a hundred years! A few minutes later... Casey : You created me. You can destroy me. Is that the game we're playing? Frannie : No game, Case, it's simple. I want to be president again. I think I deserve to be and you don't, if you're this clueless about how the system works. Casey : Clueless? Please. I know you can introduce whatever legislation you want, but it's a battle to get it passed. That legislation will get passed over my dad, cute, body! Is it an uphill battle to get legislation passed? Is it? I need to know because I just said that it was. Lizzie : What, Casey? Casey : I need to stop Frannie from getting that ban overturned. I cannot face that barracuda in an election. She taught me everything I know, she probably held back the good stuff for herself. Lizzie : Get a hold of yourself! Casey : I'm sorry. Lizzie : I know better than to handle a sister roughly. It's just, I sat Miss Eastern Ohio'65 next to Miss Eastern Ohio'67 during the processional. Well, who knew that'67 slept with'65's husband at the'69 pageant? Not me! I'm no help to Te Te unless I anticipate. Bad Lizzi, bad! I'm afraid there's only so much you can do. Grand Council votes on every proposed amendment at the end of the convention in a closed-door session. So, if four out of the seven members vote to overturn the ban, it's a done deal. Casey : I have got two days to convince the council to vote against Frannie? Lizzie : It'll take some serious lobbying. Go ZBZ! KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Hey, guys. Great news. We don't need to do the repairs ourselves. My dorm will pay us to have our annual Galileo party here this weekend. Cappie : Really? Rusty : My RA, Max is in charge. He's completely on board. And you'll finally get to hang out with him, he's so cool. Cappie : Yeah, well, Honors engineering is the very definition of cool. Rusty : And that's just the beginning. We keep renting out the house for party until we have everything paid off. Cappie : So... we'd be an event hall of sorts. We can host weddings. I can get ordained on-line, it'd be a one-stop shop. Kappa Tau: Party Palace and Chapel of Love, featuring Father Cappie. Beaver : How cool is that? Getting paid to do something we love. It'd be like getting paid to have sex! What are hookers complaing about? Rusty : Just keep in mind, guys, this will not be a Kappa Tau party tomorrow night, though. These are honors engineers. No booze, no hot chicks. Just robots. Cappie : Listen. Even if it's the lamest party in the history of the Kappa Tau house, at least there will still be a KT house. Ext. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Casey : Tegan ! Oh, wow ! I didn't know you were teaching this seminar. Tegan : Planning your will at 21, huh? Casey : I'm a planner. Tegan : What do you want? Casey : Now that you mention it, I did want to make sure I'd have your support in voting against Frannie's motion. You of all people know how damaging Frannie's leadership was to the chapter. Tegan : It certainly was I also know how damaging it was to my authority, not to mention my ego, when you publicly defied me during Greek Week. Casey : That was an unfortunate situation. I'm sure you'll agree that... Tegan : Frannie is the one who called to warn me about Rebecca's Greek Week behavior in the first place. Casey : Frannie was your eyes and ears? Tegan : It's quid pro quo, Casey. Frannie demonstrated that she has Nationals' best interest in mind. Someone like that deserves another sht. So she gets my vote. DOBLERS Calvin : I am glad you called. Evan : Frannie's gone and, I don't know... For some reason I just really needed guys' night out. Calvin : I just came back from playing Pictionary with Michael and his grad friends for three hours straight. Evan : Don't you think it's a little early for you guys to start acting like an old, married couple? Calvin : The highlight was someone drew a cupcake that looked like a giant boob. Everyone started laughing. Grad students are repressed. Never underestimate the power of a boob. Girl : Come here. Calvin : Speaking of which, do you know her? Evan : She's waving for us to go over to her table. What do you think? Calvin : I think I'm gay, and I think you have a girlfriend. Evan : It's harmless flirting. Not like anything's gonna happen. What do you say? Too late... Girl : Hey Guys ! Mind if we join you? Calvin : You owe me one. KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Make sure you keep that receipt. It's on the nerds. Ben Bennett : Got it. Who shows up to a party at seven? Cappie : How nice and odd of you to bring your own fruit punch. Ben Bennett : And a ladle. Cappie : And a ladle. At this rate, we'll be done in time to have our own party to celebrate our first customers! I recognize that guy from Casino Night. Rusty : Cappie, this is Max. Ben Bennet, Max. Max : Hey. You might want to move some of this furniture out of here. Rusty : We should move some of this furniture out of here. Cappie : Is there an echo in here? Max : Unlikely. Cappie : Anyway, I wouldn't worry about the furniture. This is Kappa Tau. Max : I'm sorry? Cappie : Surely our reputation precedes us. Your honors engineers are no match for our parties or our furniture. Right Spitter ? Max : Don't say I didn't warn you. If things go wrong, you can defend us to the Holy Roman Tribunal. Rusty : Galileo had to defend his heretical teachings to the Pope. This is the Galileo party. Max : So where'd Spitter come from? Cappie : That's just something I call him. It's a nickname. Nice to meet you. Max : Nice to meet you. Cappie : What a complete douche. A few minutes later... Plain White T’s are singing... Ben Bennett : This party isn't bad. Even Beav found a cute girl. Cappie : Yes, but come on, she looks like she's late for a hobbit wedding. Ben Bennett : She's still pretty hot. Cappie : These guys are sensitive to sugar. Max : It's not sugar. It's ADJ. Cappie : Spitter? Translation? Max : The punch? Aerosol Death Juice. Homemade from a special fermentation process developed by some of our chemical engineers to maximize efficient inebriation. Rusty : Translation. The punch... Cappie : No translation needed. So it's like a wine spritzer of sorts? Well, if it becomes need be, the KTs have a fool proof hangover cure developed by some of our chemical dependents that cuts headache duration in half. Rusty : Won't need that. Max already has one that completely eliminates headaches. Dale : I may have underestimated these KTs. It was pretty nice of them to provide a nonalcoholic beverage option for us teetotalers. Right? And this... This punch is really thirst-quenching... too, I find. It's funny, I thought I was gettin' a sore throat, but now I just feel kinda tingly. All over. Should we make out? DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Old ZBZ Woman : And now, sisters, please open to page 37 of your song-book, and join me in the ZBZ friendship song : Appreciate the Pink. Casey : I have a great idea. If you'll guarantee me your support in tomorrow's Council vote, I will personally bring CRU's top ten ZBZ sisters to your alma mater to act as Rush coaches. ZBZ Woman : Dear, that sounds wonderful. You have my vote. Casey : Great! Now, will you excuse me? Paula : Let me get that for you. Casey : Thanks. Paula : Hi. I'm Paula. Casey : I’m Casey. Paula : Working the room, I see. Casey : Only way to get things done. Paula : It is indeed. I'll leave you to it. Frannie : I wouldn't waste your time on Bunchie. She just promised me her vote. My whole redemption spiel really resonated with her as a born-again. Casey : Hallelujah. Frannie : That makes three for me... Casey : And three for me. Frannie : And only Tegan uncommitted. So I've gotta say... I'm liking my odds. Old ZBZ Woman : Now, let's wrap this up with the Sisterhood solidarity song: I Will Never Betray My Dear Sister. DOBLERS Brianna : I told him not to cut it too short, but he didn't listen. I think it makes my face look fat. Evan : Are you kidding? No, you look great. Brianna : Really? You are so sweet. And you look pretty great yourself. Evan : Thank you. Calvin : So, what's your major, Brianna? Brianna : I'm Brianna. She's Alanna. Evan : She's Alanna, and she's Brianna. Brianna : I'm Brianna, and she's Alanna. Calvin : Oh right. Brianna : We're gonna go to the bathroom. Evan : Ok. So Brianna has invited me to go back to her place. You mind if we take off? Calvin : Hold on, man, what happened to harmless flirting? Evan : Since when did you become a Frannie champion? Man, she's in Orlando. Calvin : So what she doesn't know won't hurt her. Evan : No, Calvin. Calvijn Owens.We're in college. This is the one chance we have to follow our impulses, and we can do whatever we want and get away with it. College is about sowing wild oats. Not Pictionary and the Dean's receptions. Calvin : The Dean's what? Evan : Never mind. KT HOUSE - Party Tom (Plain White T’s) : We're done, Cap. Cappie : This is nothing. Tom (Plain White T’s) : Fame isn't worth it. Dale : Come on, you rule, man. Come on. Cappie : Pledge, will you get the nerd off the guys. I'm gonna handle things inside. How are they playing pool again? I confiscated all the cues. Beaver : It's like they're Gremlins! Say my name in Elvish again? Girl : Saralonde. Beaver : I think I'm falling in love with you. Girl : Le melon. Cappie : Hey! What are you...? Get out of here! What are you, animals? Here, Heath. Take this and destroy it. Take Jeremy upstairs. Guard his tresses with your life. I'm shutting this party down. Rusty : Cap’, hey ! Who knew this would be a legendary Kappa Tau party after all? Cappie : The Kappa Tau house is a respectable establishment. Full of individuals who know how to hold their liquor, or at the very least how to dispose of it in the proper manner! Max : I'm sorry. It does tend to get out of hand. That's why we couldn't find a place to hold it. You know that lecture hall in the Fine Arts building that was condemned? That was us. It was an unfortunate incident with a genetically-modified raccoon. Cappie : It would have been nice to have that information in advance. Rusty : Since when does a party getting out of hand bother you? Max : I heard you were the biggest partier around. Casey said that's why you guys broke up. Cappie : Casey? What do you know about Casey? Max : She's my... We're dating. Cappie : Your gal, Casey, knows of what she speaks. I don't know what got into me. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Tegan (On phone) : Yes, Lizzi, I did tell you to cancel the Household Etiquette seminar, but if you had been smarter, you'd have anticipated that I would change my mind. And don't call me Tete. Hi, Casey. What's new? And I say new because it can't possibly be that you're eating the dad by-law horse again. Casey : Actually, I had a few ideas for how to help you. Quid pro quo, remember? I can organize a recruiting drive for flailing houses. Hold a philanthropy... Tegan : That is adorable. You must be great in Rush skits. But seriously, hon, you're not going to be able to find a quid for my quo. I take that back. If you can fulfill my wildest fantasy, and get rid of Lizzi, you've got yourself a deal. Casey : Get rid of Lizie? Tegan : Yeah. Convince that elfin little pipsqueak to ht the road. Casey : You want me to... get Lizzi to quit? Tegan : Well, I can't fre her. Her record is spotless. She's a "paragon of sisterly spirit." But I also cannot stand her constant effervescence and springy hair and... And I did not give you permission to call me by a nickname. So there you have it. You perform that miracle, and there might be a summer internship in it for you. KT HOUSE - Party Cappie : I don't get it, man. This is... this is just wrong. Those two just don't belong together. Men and nipples? Why? It's not like milk comes out of them. Dale : Actually, some male infants have been known to excrete their mother's milk from their own nipples. Cappie : That's the craziest thing I've ever heard. You're insane, Chip. Dale : I t's Dale. Cappie : Right. Knew it was one of them. Hey, so what's the deal with this Max guy? Dale : Dude sucks. Cappie : I'm... Hi, I'm... Gluteus Maximus, I'm socially awkward, and I walk with my left foot turned slightly out 'cause I'm weird. Dale : I know! Hello, guv! I'm Maxi Pad, the kind with wings because I was in NASA. Too bad I couldn't solve Fermat's Theorem with a gn to me head. Cheerio! Cappie : Cheerio! Maxi Pad?! Oh, you're too much. How'd you come up with that?! Dale : Aw, man, that's just how I roll. Cappie : How come we've never hung out? Dale : I don't know. Cappie : You're awesome. Dale : I know. Cappie : We should be best friends. You know what? We are best friends. Cap'n'Dale. Dale : These pants make my bottom itch. Cappie : Maxi Pad... Dale : I'm just gonna lay down for a minute. Cappie : Bring it in. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Waiter : Glass of chardonnay. Woman : Thank you. Casey : You must be really stressed out. Lizzie : I'm... I'm weary. This year alone, I've consulted at 20 chapters, colonized 20 new ones, and I, personally, shepherded three sisters into rehab, one at the expense of my Tercel's upholstery. Do you think Tegan appreciates it? Waiter : Here's your drink. Lizzie : Thanks. Casey : Lizzie, I hate to see you like this. Your natural effervescence is one of your most winning qualities. What a shame to have it so cruelly squelched. Lizzie : I know. I used to love this job, but now... Casey : You think, maybe, you should just quit? Lizzie : Quit? ZBZ is my life. Casey : Oh, I know. But... is it a happy life? Life is short, Lizzie. You're a talented, young-ish woman with a lot to offer, and you deserve to work for someone who appreciates you. Not some awful wench who badmouths you to everyone about using ivory dinner plates instead of cream. Lizzie : She does that? Casey : She did. Lizzie : Thank you, Casey. I'm gonna go. And I'm going to tell Tegan exactly where to stick her ZBZ letters. Ivory and cream are the same damn color! KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : Beav’. Beav’. Beaver : I'm kind of busy here, Rus. Rusty : Sorry, it's an emergency. Have you seen my roommate? I'm worried about him. Dark hair. Glasses. Members Only jacket. Beaver : Your roommate? He's nuts. Last time I saw him, he was talking to himself in a mirror. Then he started making out with a pillow. Go away. Rusty : Has anyone seen Dale? Dale : Has anyone seen my pants? They're like... They're like jeans, but they're made of something else. It's like... Guy : Hey, dude, what's up? You look awful. Cappie : You've been avoiding me. Rusty : Where's Dale? Cappie : Not here. We're all alone. Rusty : What's going on? What's up? Cappie : I might ask the same of you. Tell me, is the rumor true? Rusty : What rumor? Cappie : In a blind taste test, do the Cartwright kids prefer Maxwell House over Folger's? When I say Maxwell House, I mean Max. And when I say Folger's, I mean Cappie. Rusty : Oh, my God. Are you jealous of Max? Cappie : No. Only of his fresh-roasted aroma. Rusty : Ok. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Casey : Can we go? I'm feeling skitted-out. Ashleigh : But the class of'79 is next! You'll miss Saturday Night ZBZ-ver! Tegan : I don't know how you did it, but nice going. You got my vote. Casey : I think I'm ready to call it a night. Ashleigh : And miss the cutting of the Kitty Kat Cake? Ever since 1932, when flour was hard to come by during the Depression... Casey : 'Night, Ash. Paula : So, let me guess, getting things done again? Casey : It's done. Paula : You don't sound too happy. Casey : Really? I thought I was so good at faking it. Paula : I'm not good at faking it either. This morning Mary Beth Gentrie-Manning caught me rolling my eyes at the breakfast proclamation. I'm probably on some kind of list now. Casey : Me too. The bad sisters list. I guess there's always something to compromise when you going after what you want. Paula : That's true. I remember when I was president of my chapter. Having served that vaunted post, just like you, my dear, I know all about compromise. Back in the day, I had a friend who rushed ZBZ when I was president. She was a nice girl, smart. But not exactly "ZBZ material," as we say. But since she was an old friend, I... Casey : Realized that loyalty and integrity were more important, than the image of the house, so you let her in. Paula : I blackballed her. Casey : I didn't see that coming. Paula : Neither did she. She never spoke to me again. And you can bet I'd rather look back on myself the way you just described me. As someone with loyalty and integrity. Not to mention someone with the balls to stand up for her friend. But that's hard. Especially when you're young. Casey : So I have the energy to fight. It's just better to fight smart, right? Why confront something head on when you can work around it? Play it safe? Paula : Playing it safe is what you do when you're afraid. Let me tell you something else I wish I'd known when I was young... There are very few things worth being afraid of. KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : What? Pickle : They klled her, Cap. Cappie : klled who? Pickle : Vesuvius. Cappie : No. It's not fair. She was so strong. Pickle : And now, thanks to them, she's dad. Cappie : Come here, I know... I know. Rusty : Where's the front door? Pickle : Probably rotting in the ground with Vesuvius. Cappie : Yep, I know. Rusty : Man, I'm really sorry, guys. Cappie : You OK? It's OK. Well, so much for Kappa Tau, Party Palace and Chapel of Love. Dale : Hey, Rus? I'm a little disoriented right now. Know what happened to my clothes? Or why I woke up with this? Rusty : Uh, you took a little too much sore throat medicine last night, Dale. It made you feel a little woozy. Dale : Oh, well, I would've preferred that you walked me home. Rusty : Next time. Dale : Ok. Cappie : Hey. Dale : Hey. Beaver : Does anyone know whose pants these are? 'Cause they're really making my bottom itch. KT HOUSE – Heath’s room Heath : That party was out of control. But the craziest thing was you showing up afterwards. Calvin : Yeah, I plead temporary insanity on that one. Heath : So you wish you hadn't come over? Calvin : No! I'm glad I did. Heath : So, uh, what now? Calvin : I don't know. All I know is I'm in college, and I like to have fun, and I have fun with you. Heath : But what about Michael? DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Casey : Open up, open up, open up! Lizzie : Casey! Oh, you came to say goodbye! That's so sweet! Casey : No! I came to say, "Stop packing." Stop packing and stop being afraid. It's time you and I faced things head on. Ash? Ashleigh : It's time to get serious. And it starts with the hair. Ext. CRU Calvin : So... How was last night? Evan : Oh, that. Yeah, nothing happened. Calvin : Really? Nothing with Brianna? Evan : No. I walked her home, and then went back to the house. Calvin : Wait. So you didn't cheat on Frannie? Evan : You know, I figure when you cheat on someone, you're just giving them a reason to dump you. And I still find Frannie intriguing. Not ready for her to dump me yet. Know what I mean? Calvin : I guess. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Lizzie : I don't know if i can do this. I'm not the kind of girls who disturbs when it says do not. Casey : You perfectly coiffed. And rock on some seriously imposing lips. Now, you go in there and tell Tegan you're not quitting And from now on, she needs to treat you the way you deserve to be treated. Lizzie : But if i stay, you lose Tegan's vote, and Frannie gonna get her way. Casey : I'm not afraid anymore, Lizzi. Now, you get in there and start disturbing! Tegan : Sorry, sister. Freezi? Lizzie : I didn't give you permission to call me by a nickname. And i am not going anywhere, Te-Te! Frannie : What do you so smiley about? Casey : Sometimes, people smile when they're happy. Frannie : By happy, do you mean deluded? Because my sources assure me that i got this vote locked up. Four to three. Casey : Yes, this vote, you do. But the only vote i care about is for President and i am happy to have you challenge me for that, fair and square. Because i can not wait to kick your ass. KT HOUSE – Living room Pickle : mrder. Cappie : I don't know if you're welcome here. Max : We came to help. These guys invented a DVR that detects and records any prn playing anywhere in the world. Cappie : First you trash our house, now you're bragging? That's just bad form. Max : I'm just saying they're geniuses. They can help get the house back into shape. Even fix your sprinkler system and the other violations. I brought you some of my patented hangover cure. It actually is patented. Cappie : Thank you. Max : OK, let's... You guys... Rusty : Looks like we're home free. Cappie : Oh, yeah. Yeah. Thanks to SuperMax. Rusty : We would've figured something else out on our own. Cappie : Yeah. Rusty : But I have this other problem that I wanted to ask you about. Cappie : Why don't you just go ask Max? Rusty : Max would never be good at this. He's no good with girl problems. Cappie : Girl problems? I'm great with girl problems. Causing them. Complicating them further. Solving them. h*t me. Come on. Rusty : There's this girl in my Literature class. Her name's... Miley. Miley Montana. Cappie : Sounds familiar. Rusty : She acts one way during the day, but then she's totally different during the night. I'm so confused. Cappie : Spitter. Let me tell you about this girl I met freshmen year. DEAN’S SPRING RECEPTION Ashleigh : Oh, Nina. You better not lose my email. I will totally be there for your 30th anniversary party. Paula : You are looking much more chipper than the last time I saw you. Casey : I am chipper, thanks. And thanks for the advice. Paula : I really enjoyed meeting you, Casey. You strike me as a young woman with a lot of potential. That's my contact information. If you find yourself in my neck of the woods, give me a call. You got that? Casey : Thank you. Lizzie : OK, ladies. Chins out, and down. Casey : Bodies three-quarters-turned. Lizzie : Excellent! Casey : Paula Baker. Why does that sound familiar? Ashleigh : Paula Baker. One of our most illustrious sisters. Ten-term Congresswoman from Maryland's 43rd district. Currently serving on the House Appropriations Committee. Casey : Wow. Ashleigh : I know. I told you history's fun. Casey : So is politics. Maybe I shouldn't be limiting myself to just the sorority kind. Lizzie : OK, girls, this is it! Big smiles all around. See you next time sisters!	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x06 - See You Next Time, Sisters"}	foreverdreaming
KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Ok, ok. Due to limited storage space, we will now be deleting our season pass of Days of Our Lives. I'm very, very sorry, Beaver. Beaver : I'll miss you, Marlena. Cappie : OK. On to the next item on the agenda. Pickle : I think we're at the elbow. Cappie : You know you need to moisturize, Pickle. This is just disgusting. Oh, right. OK. Dust off your tuxes, gentlemen, it's spring formal season. Which means next week we'll be having what we call at Kappa Tau... All : The prom. Cappie : As president, appointing the chairman of the prom committee is one of my special duties. Yeah. Duties. I take this responsibility very seriously. Now, this chosen one must possess organizational prowess, an acute attention to detail and the ability to tie balloons without popping them. Now, this year one lone Kappa Tau stood out. Shiningg like a lighthouse, guiding our prom safely into the harbor. Now, that one Kappa Tau is, of course, none other than... Excuse me. My shoe's untied. Let's give it up for Rusty Cartwright. Rusty : Thanks, guys. I'm gonna throw the best prom ever. So, we'll probably have, like, three subcommittees. Cappie : All right! Meeting adjourned. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Ashleigh : I can't believe I own this many formal dresses. Who knew I was so fancy? Casey : Have you finalized the menu? Ashleigh : Maybe I should just wear the white strapless. But if I do, I can only drink clear liquids. Casey : Did you confirm with the hotel? Ashleigh : Yeah. See, I would wear the silver halter, but I don't have time to shape my shoulders. Damn my credit crunch. Casey : You booked the DJ, right? Ashleigh : Oh, my God. Music! I knew I forgot something! Casey : What? Really? Ashleigh : No, not really! This is not my first time at the spring formal rodeo. What's with all the micromanaging? It's like I'm on “The Apprentice” : Sorority Edition. Casey : I just want everything to be perfect. Our formal is the last social event before the election. If it goes off without a hitch,the sisterhood will want to continue my reign of terror-bly awesome parties. Ashleigh : Parties that won't be planned by me. 'Cause after this formal I am done, so next year I can actually bring a date and enjoy it. Let's head down for dinner. Casey : You're definitely flying solo? Ashleigh : I'm juggling so many logistical issues, bringing a date would just complicate matters. Besides, I don't have a Max. Casey : I know, but Max's first ZBZ function is Spring Formal. It's like he's just picked up a ping-pong paddle and I'm throwing him into Wimbledon. Ashleigh : Case, he's socially awkward. Not "special." ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Evan : And finally ladies, allow me to introduce... Hunter. He is a 6'1" junior from Columbus who plays lacrosse, speaks conversational German, and for the past three summers worked as a greeter at Abercrombie. Frannie : Please list your top three Omega Chi bachelors in numerical order. Evan and I will do everything we can to match you up with one of your favorites. Remember, ladies, we are the top sorority on campus. We deserve to be on the arms of the finest men. Evan : Your satisfaction is guaranteed. Frannie : I can vouch for that. Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Frannie : Can I have your attention, ladies? I have your Omega Chi formal dates. Oh, wait, wait, whoa. I'm afraid I have some bad news. There were more sisters than Omega Chis, so three girls didn't get matched. Holly, Greta, and Reagan. I'm so sorry, girls. But the good news is, Evan is throwing this after-party at the Omega Chi house for all of us. Get ready to party till dawn! Rebecca : So, Big Sis, what's the plan? Casey : I don't know. I thought I'd start with a bana, then move on to the yogurt. Rebecca : Come on. I know you've got a scheme to counter Frannie's boy bribery. Casey : Not at all. I think it's political pandering at its worst. Rebecca : It's shameless. Casey : Right? Thank you. Frannie : Rebecca, I got you that soccer player you wanted. Rebecca : Thanks, Frannie. Frannie : Anything for our little R-Lo. Casey : You don't think this stunt will help you in the election, do you? Frannie : Oh, my little, um, pit bull, this will win the election for me. Casey : Because you got a few girls a date? Frannie : No, because Evan did. I'm showing our sisters that, when they vote for me, they get a little extra bonus gift of... of manly macho goodness. Casey : This election is between us, Frannie, not our boyfriends. Frannie : You really are a natural blonde. CRU – Dale & Rusty’sroom Rusty : No, it's OK. Thank you. Hey, Dale, do you know where I can rent a disco ball? Dale : Try the Party Palace over on Fourth. Ask for Marvin. Tell him old D-Dawg sent you. He helped me trim my last U-SAG ball. What are you planning? Rusty : The K-T Spring Formal, which means crepe paper, balloons... Dale : Sounds like a prom. Rusty : So I've heard. I didn't get to go to the prom. Dale : Dateless? Rusty : No, I had this Boy Scout Jamboree that weekend. Anyway, this formal's gonna be my chance to make up for missing it. I mean, there has to be a reason why every teen movie ends at the prom. Dale : Usually because that's when they decide to give into temptation and have premarital sex. Rusty : I don't think there will be any of that. It's a blind date. Beaver set me up with his cousin's... sister's girlfriend. He says she's cute. Here. This is the picture he sent me. Dale : She's a cow. Rusty : No, she's the one milking the cow. Dale : Very impressive. Rusty : I've got the tux, I've got the date. The stage is set for a night of epic romance, and I need some. I mean, I started off this year making out with a girl while it rained beer, and all I've gotten lately is crabs. Dale : What did you say? Rusty : Abs. Rock-hard abs. From the sit-ups I've been doing because of no dating. EXT. KT HOUSE Cappie : Hey ! Rebecca : Hi. Cappie : Nice weather, huh? Rebecca : Very low humidity. Well, I shouldn't let my heart rate drop. Cappie : Yeah, I'd hate to stand between you and physical fitness. Is that my shirt? Rebecca : Yep. Cappie : Well, can I have it back? Rebecca : Now? Cappie : It's kind of my lucky shirt. Rebecca : Having trouble getting lucky? Cappie : Cute. Rebecca : Tell you what. You can have this back when you return my travel toothbrush. Cappie : I hope I haven't stood in the way of any overnight visits. Rebecca : My itinerary's no longer your concern. Cappie : How about we set up a hostage exchange? Rebecca : How do I know you haven't thrown my toothbrush away? Cappie : How do I know you haven't stretched my lucky shirt? EXT. CRU Max : Lauren? Lorelei? Casey : Correct. Personal information. Max : She is from Ta...... ahassee. Tallahassee! She's from Tallahassee, of course. And she wants to be a... prn star? Casey : A plastic surgeon! You can do this. You memorized the Periodic Table. I know you can handle 50 sority girls. Max : Tell me again why we're doing this. Casey : This formal won't be all fun and games. With the election next week, we're in the middle of campaign season, so we're gonna have to work the room a little bit. Think of these as handy helpers. And if you get stuck, just bring up current events or something. Evan : Hey, there, Case. You must be Max. Evan Chambers. Max : Yes. Hi, I'm Max. Well, you already knew that. Evan : Right. Casey : Well, Evan, thanks for dropping by. Max : You might want to get a reusable water bottle. Evan : Excuse me? Max : Your water bottle? They say the average person uses 166 disposable plastic bottles of water per year, and that only about 20 percent of them actually end up being recycled. Evan : That's fascinating. Max : It's like, it's an environment thing. Environment. A current event, you might say. Evan : Hey, you know, here I was, just trying to stay hydrated. I'll see both you guys at the formal. Max, awesome meeting you. Max : You... Yeah. That was bad, wasn't it? Casey : Look, the thing with Evan... Max : Maybe I should just skip the formal. Casey : Really? Max : I'm just so worried we're gonna go to the formal, and I'm just gonna embarrass myself. Would you hate me if I didn't go? Casey : Not if you promise to make it up to me after the formal. CRU - Hallway Dale : Please tell me this is not your prom theme. Rusty : It is simple and romantic. Dale : This is more tired than my grandma after bingo. You need something more fresh and hip. You need "A Moment Like This." It's more immediate. Rusty : Hey, Max. Come here. I need your objective opinion. What do you think of this formal theme? Max : I'm not even going to ZBZ's formal, so... I'm probably the wrong person to ask. Dale : You're not going? That means Casey needs a date. Probably somebody that conveniently owns their own tuxedo. With tails. Max : It just... didn't sound like that much fun. Politics, small talk... Rusty : But there's so much more than that. You're both dressed in your finest, you take your date's hand, you slowly lead her out on the dance floor, where under the twinkling of the disco ball, her head rests gently on your shoulder. It's supposed to be the most romantic night of the year. Dale : Or you can just stay home and groom those sideburns. Max : The most romantic night of the year and I told Casey I didn't want to go? After she went to all that trouble to make everything so much easier for me. I'm such a jerk! Dale : Yeah, you really are. The truth hurts. But sometimes it can set you free. Max : She deserves the most romantic night of the year. I'm gonna give it to her. Dale : No, that's not what I'm... I wanted to give it to her. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : I would love to have a romantic evening with Max. But... Frannie's turning the formal into a campaign event, so maybe it's better if he doesn't go. At least I won't have to worry about him. Am I a terrible person for even saying that ? Ashleigh : No, not at all. It sounds like the formal is gonna be work for both of us. Casey : You manage formal while I manage Frannie. She's going big with mass bribery, so... I'm gonna go small. You know, one-on-one. I can bat her without Evan Chambers on my arm. Max, hi. Max : I just... ran. Just one sec. I want to go to the formal. I'm sorry if it seemed like I didn't. I do. I want to give you the romantic night that you deserve. There you go. I... I want... I'm just talking right now. I don't... I'd rather do this. I gotta go. I gotta get my tux cleaned. So I will see you tomorrow night. All right. Bye. Casey : Bye. See you. He can go. Max : Can I get those flashcards? KT HOUSE - Party Rusty : Hey Cappie ! Cap’ ! What's going on? Cappie : Didn't you get my text? Rusty : Text? Cappie : We sorta cancelled our formal. We definitely cancelled. Rusty : What? Cappie : But the upside is, we used the money to do our first informal, huh? Rusty : But I rented my tux. Cappie : I'm sorry, but you know, this is really more our style. Cheer up. We're about to start the bouncing man-boob competition, all right? Let's bounce! Beaver : Hey Rusty. Rusty : Is my date still coming? I've been reading up on prize-winning livestock. Beaver : My cousin's girlfriend said her sister eloped with a butcher. The whole family is shocked. Come on, Spitter, bounce with me. Come on, bounce! ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Ashleigh : Hey Rusty. Casey's at the salon, getting her hair did. Can I help you with something? Rusty : I need to borrow her car so I can return my tux. If I can get it back today they won't charge me. Ashleigh : But Isn't your formal next weekend? Rusty : It was until Cappie cancelled, and threw an informal, complete with bouncy castle and man-boob contest. Don't ask. Ashleigh : I'm good. Rusty : I was looking forward to it, especially since I missed my high school prom. Ashleigh : What? You missed your prom? Rusty : I had this Boy Scout Jamboree... Ashleigh : That is so sad. You missed the most romantic night of the year? There is a reason that every teen movie ends at the prom. Rusty : That's what I thought. Ashleigh : You could go to the ZBZ formal. Rusty : With whom? Ashleigh : I know for a fact that there are three girls upstairs without dates. And blind dates are so exciting. I love this! It's like I'm the host of a new reality show. I'm gonna make your prom dreams come true, Rusty Cartwright. Be here in tux tonight at seven. Rusty : Tonight at seven. EXT. CRU Cappie : Your head is way too fancy for your body. It's weird. Like when they make babies talk on TV. Casey : Don't touch. The formal is tonight. Cappie : Big date? Casey : I'm taking Max. Cappie : Rusty's RA, Mr. Super Science Smarty Pants. He's a great guy. I love it when he walks. He turns his left foot slightly outward. You guys are still together? Casey : Are you jealous? Cappie : I can be jealous of your boyfriends. It's in the ex-boyfriend bill of rights. I've read it. Casey : I think you two could be friends. I'll admit, when you first meet him he comes across as a little... Cappie : Aloof? Weird? Defective? Casey : Distracted, but... once you get tuned in to his frequency, he's a great guy. I am a little stressed about the formal, though, since it's one ginormous first impression. Cappie : He's not a circus freak. Or is he? Does he have webbed feet and a tail or a giant twin growing out of his back? Casey : You know what formals are like. It's all small talk and schmoozing. Nobody's better at that than... Cappie : Me? Casey : I was gonna say Evan, but you were a close second. Care to explain the toothbrush? Cappie : I'm just returning this to its rightful owner. At your house, actually. Casey : This is Rebecca's? I heard about the break-up. If you wanna avoid her, I can take it to her. Cappie : No, that's OK. I have to go home and make it look used. Besides, she and I have things to discuss. Casey : You're sleeping together. Cappie : No, we're not. Sleeping together? Casey : Cap, bad idea. Cappie : Come on. It doesn't mean anything. You and I slept together after we broke up. Casey : Once you'd been cleansed. Cappie : I don't remember that. Did I enjoy it? Casey : I had to cleanse you from my system. It took time. Cappie : Well, how much time? Casey : Generally speaking, whatever amount of time you were in the relationship for that's how long it takes to get over it. Our case... six months. Cappie : So you're over me? Casey : I'm under the gn.I've got to go. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Ashleigh : He's really smart, like Bill Gates smart. But with a much better face. He's got this really soothing voice, kind of lulls you to sleep. He's got great dental hygiene. Not a single cavity. Holly : Ok. Who is it? Ashleigh : Rusty Cartwright. Holly : Casey's little brother? Reagan : I can't decide if that's sad or gross. Greta : He's a pledge from Kappa Tau named Spitter. ZBZ HOUSE – Hallway Ashleigh : Well, I failed. Your hair looks nice. Casey : Thanks. What did you fail at? Ashleigh : Finding your brother a date to our formal. Casey : Why on Earth would you do that? Ashleigh : 'Cause the KT's cancelled their formal and when he told me, he just looked so sad. Like one of those puppies at the mall pet store. Casey : Just the thought is icky and nasty and... perfect. If Max gets uncomfortable, he can just talk to Rusty. Just hang out with him. Then they could sit at a table and talk about lasers and jet packs. Ashleigh : Well, I didn't find him a date, so... Casey : Really? You don't know anyone else without a date? Ashleigh : What, me? Casey : I mean... It's not like he's a real date. Plus, he can hold your lipstick and cash so you don't have to carry a purse. Ashleigh : I don't know. See? Mall pet store! Fine, I'll do it. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Omega Chi Guy : Cab's waiting. ZBZ Girl : Can you hold my keys and my lipliner and my credit card? Omega Chi Guy : All righty. Casey : See you there, guys. Frannie : Let's go. My public awaits. Evan : You look stunning. Frannie : Thanks. You clean up pretty well yourself. May I? Max : Casey ? Wow...Pretty. Casey : Right back at you. Rusty : Where's my date? Ashleigh : Right here. Rusty : What about the three girls? Ashleigh : My date cancelled so there was no way I was giving you up. Rusty : Isn't this weird? You're Casey's best friend. Casey : You're going to the formal, not having a baby. Rusty : Well, then I guess this is yours. Ashleigh : I'm not wearing that. Casey : So, is the cab out front? Max : We're not taking a cab tonight. Ashleigh : A limo? Rusty : Even better. Evan : Can you guys move your carriage? CRU - Prom Evan : All right, that's great. Bye. Some good news. Calvin's booked the best DJ on campus for the after-party. Frannie : Thanks. Evan : For what? Frannie : For everything. Evan : You know, just consider it a campaign event for the "Friends of Frannie Morgan Committee." You know you're gonna win. Frannie : It's not in the bag yet. What about your campaign for OC president? Evan : It's a lot less interesting. I'm running unopposed and everyone thinks I'm president anyway. Frannie : We make a pretty good team, Evan Chambers. Ashleigh : We missed the dinner. Max : Sorry. I didn't realize the formal was eight miles off campus. Rusty : And I didn't think my camera flash would spook the horses. Casey : We're here now. That's all that matters. Ashleigh : They didn't use the chair backs. God, the whole decor is off. Rusty : You got the four-tier chocolate fountain. Ashleigh : I did. I struggled with the decision, but the two-tiered just looked cheap. Come look at the ice sculpture. Casey : Would you mind if we made, like, a quick round? I should make an appearance. Max : Sure. Casey : This is Beth W. Beth W. : Hey casey. Casey : Have you met Max? Max : Casey tells me you spent last semester in Italy. Beth W. : Oh, my God. I did. It was “buenisimo”. The shopping in Milan is sick. But it was really hard, too. Max : Being away from home? Beth W. : No, being near all that “pasta” ! I don't know how they're not all fatties! Max, this is my boyfriend, Brad. Max : Beth and Brad. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Cappie : You're not... You're not going to the formal? Rebecca : I cancelled my date. I need a break from sorority events. We have one, like, every week. Cappie : Here's your toothbrush back. Rebecca : About the other day... That was a huge mistake. Cappie : Right, yeah. Huge. Rebecca : Never to be repeated. Cappie : Never ever. Ever... What kind of ice cream are you eating? Rebecca : Cookies and cream. Rebecca : That was fun. Cappie : Fun. Then really fun. Then never done that before fun. Rebecca : We're broken up.We're not supposed to be doing this. Cappie : Why not?It's sort of how we started.Secret sex spies, remember? Rebecca : That's true.Maybe the reason we don't work out is : we try to make it more than what it is. Cappie : Yeah, maybe we should just be friends who... occasionally hang out naked. Rebecca : Let's give it a sht. Friends. Cappie : Freaky fun buddies forever. I've always wanted to have sex in this house. Rebecca : Me, too. Though I've always imagined it in the kitchen. Cappie : Where's the kitchen? CRU - Prom Ashleigh : So, the centerpieces were my most controversial decision. Rusty : Why? They're cherubs. Ashleigh : Which some people think injects religious symbolism into the decor. But I just say little babies with wings are cute. Rusty : Yeah, they are. Girl : Come dance. Ashleigh : Rusty, come join us! Well, that was fun. Casey : So, how did you and Betsy meet? Omage Chi Guy : Well, that's a... long story. Max : Did you meet in AA? Omage Chi Guy : Did you tell him? Supposed to be Alcoholics Anonymous! Betsy : No, I did not tell him. Vic, do not go near that bar! Max : I knew I was doing too well. Casey : Well, don't worry about it. Let's take a break and have a dance. Evan : One more, please. You having fun? Thanks. Waiter : No problem. Rusty : I'm just trying to enjoy the prom. I mean, formal. Evan : And I'm stopping that how? Rusty : I'm just saying, I don't want to throw down with you. Evan : OK. Well, we won't throw down. What does that even mean? Rusty : You don't remember? Maybe I h*t you too hard with the pledge paddle. Evan : Yeah, I do remember. I remember you came at me from behind and ambushed me. It was pretty pathetic, really. But of course, you've topped that tonight. Rusty : What are you talking about? Evan : Come on, you're on a pity date. Rusty : There's nothing pitiful about Ashleigh. Evan : No, you're right. There's... I'm not talking about Ashleigh. It's you. You're Exhibit A. Ashleigh's your sister's best friend. Exhibit B, look at her. She's insanely hot. Exhibit C, there's you. Rusty : Excuse me. I'm just gonna return to my lady. Beth : Venice was pretty and all, but it kind of smells. Ashleigh : Really? Beth : Yeah, it was weird. But I loved riding in the gondolas. They're these little canoes with these men that pushed with these long sticks. And you know what they do while they're pushing? Ashleigh : Sing? Beth : My gosh, you've been there? Ashleigh : Rusty! Casey : Are you having any fun? Max : Sure. I mean, I guess. No. It's good to get out of my comfort zone. Girl : Dance circle! Casey : It's dance circle time. Max : Dance circle? Casey : Yeah, at formal we stand around in a circle and dance. I can't really explain it. Max : I'll take a breather. Frannie : Go, Evan. Casey : Come dance. Right now. Go, Max. Max : I got her. Max : What are you doing? Frannie : I can get it unstuck. What's hurting me? Frannie : You trying to untangle it or rip it out? Casey : I'm sorry. It's really in there. Frannie : You know what, girls, go and dance. Don't worry about little old me. I've been to many formals. It's OK that Casey's boyfriend ruined this one. Casey : I think we need scissors. Frannie : You know what? Will you do it, Heather? Because you always trim your own bangs. They look great. We've got it from here. Rusty : I'm really sorry. I don't know what got into me. No, that's not true. Evan got into me. Ashleigh : What did he say? Rusty : He said I was on a pity date. Casey : I need help with damage control. Can you hang with Max? Rusty : Fine. Whatever. Casey : What's wrong with him? Ashleigh : Prom isn't living up to his expectations. Casey : The prom? Ashleigh : That's why I wanted to find him a date. He missed his prom. He had to go to Gymboree with some Boy Scouts. Casey : Rusty didn't go to prom because he couldn't find a date. He asked multiple girls and they all said no. Ashleigh : That must be why what Evan said upset him so much. Casey : What did Evan say? Max : I think that guy Evan wants you. Rusty : He's such an ass. I can't believe Casey dated him. Max : They dated? Rusty : For almost two years. Casey : Look, leave Rusty alone. If you want to pick on somebody, pick on me. This is about us, not him. Evan : Well, I beg to differ. My issues with Rusty are very much about Rusty. Casey : Don't be an ass, Evan. Evan : If I'm such an ass, then why on Earth did you date me for so long? I mean, could it be that I'm the heir to a media conglomerate? Casey : Well, it's quite apparent Frannie's only dating you for your winning personality. Evan : At least she's being honest about it. Casey : You're better than this. What happened to you? Evan : You're right. You are absolutely right. I don't know. I miss you, Case. And I don't know what to do. Losing you will be my biggest regret. That's what you want to hear, right? Casey : I get it now. Evan : What? Casey : I now get your issues with Rusty. I thought I knew you best. But Rusty's the one person who knew exactly who you are. I can't believe I defended you. That's my greatest regret. You know, actually... Actually my greatest regret is not being there to see Rusty kick your ass with the pledge paddle. ZBZ HOUSE – Laura’s room Rebecca : If Laura knew what we just did in there, she would die. Cappie : What was with all those Precious Moments figurines, anyway? Rebecca : Who knows. I felt like we were being watched. Cappie : I know. I kind of liked that. Rebecca : Bed or floor? Cappie : Bed. I'm getting a little rug burn. Wait. Is this Casey's room? CRU - Prom Ashleigh : Care to dance? Rusty : I don't think so, Ash. Ashleigh : Come on. Everyone has to slow dance at the prom. You're pretty light on your feet. Rusty : I've been practicing in my room. It seems really stupid right now. Ashleigh : Why? Rusty : I always expected prom to be this big, romantic rite of passage. But none of this seems romantic. Ashleigh : I beg to differ. Did you see the napkin rings? Rusty : What's romantic about it is being able to share it with someone who's excited to be with you. Which, apparently, is why every stupid teen movie ends at the prom. Did I step on your toe? They kiss... Casey : I'm sorry about that, Max. I had to take care of some things. Max : Here's your key and your credit card and your make-up. I'm gonna go. Casey : I'm sorry. I haven't been the best date tonight. With the election... Max : Why didn't you tell me that Evan Chambers was your ex-boyfriend? Casey : I didn't? I thought I did. Max : No. I'd remember if you did. My memory's borderline photographic. Apparently, sorority girls are the border. Casey : I should have told you. Max : You dated for almost two years. That's... a pretty big detail to leave out. Casey : It's just... Evan is the big man in the Greek system. And I knew how nervous you were about the formal and I didn't want to make you feel more insecure. Max : So, you were worried about me feeling insecure? Or were you insecure about being with me? Casey : I'm sorry. Max : I'm gonna go. Casey : Even though I hate to admit it, part of me dated Evan because of who he was. But I'm determined to not make that mistake again. I love that you're a nobody. That came out wrong. I promise. I have all the right feelings for you. I'm just saying all the wrong things. Max : Just tell me that you want to be with me. Casey : I want to be with you. Come on. Let's go. Evan : Hey Max. Don't forget your watch. Max : I'll be right back. Thank you. Casey told me you two used to date. Evan : That's right. Max : I gotta ask. How on Earth could you ever let her go? EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Ashleigh : So, what did you think of your prom? Rusty : It was definitely full of surprises. Ashleigh : That's the thing about prom. You never know what's gonna happen. Someone's always getting too drunk or breaking up, making a fool of themselves on the dance floor. We're just lucky nobody spilled pig's blood on us. Rusty : Tonight, I had a great time. Ashleigh : I did too, Rusty. Rusty : And I've been thinking about us. It would never work. I mean, you're Casey's best friend. We're just gonna have to let this go. Ashleigh : You are going to make some girl very happy. Rusty : You too, Ashleigh... I don't know your last name. Ashleigh : Howard. Rusty : Howard. Ashleigh : Good night. Rusty : Good night. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Rebecca : You know you're still hung up on her. And I'm still hung up on you. Cappie : You are? Rebecca : Which is why we can't do this anymore. Cappie : The sex or the friends? Rebecca : The sex. Maybe the friends. Cappie : Well, for the record, I'd like to find a way to be friends. Rebecca : Why? What's the point? Cappie : Life is just more interesting with you in it. Rebecca : I need to get over you, Cap. Cappie : I'll see you in four months. Rebecca : Four months? Ashleigh : Good night, Betsy. Rebecca : Out the back! Cappie : The back? Rebecca : Run! Ashleigh : Rebecca, what are you doing in here? Rebecca : Looking for Laura's robe. Found it.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x07 - Formally Yours"}	foreverdreaming
ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Ashleigh : Yeah. You're ahead. I count two more pink than white. Casey : Which means our preliminary polls put me two measly votes ahead of Frannie. Ashleigh : I can't believe there's even a chance she could be ZBZ president again. Casey : I know, right? It's like nobody remembers that she was removed from office last semester. Ashleigh : That was just last semester? It feels like forever ago. Betsy : That was Jessica S. She's going with Frannie. Casey : Of course she is. She still thinks I stole her toothbrush. As if there's no Colgate makes more than one of the same stupid color. Ashleigh : Forget about Jessica S... and Jessica P. We have Jessica M. and Jessica R. still undecided. Casey : Half the house is still undecided. And she's a senior, AKA one of Frannie's pledge sisters. Ashleigh : You have most of the juniors. Casey : How many hm do we have? Betsy : Seven firm, eight maybe. Casey : Then there's the pledges. Who will probably follow whoever Rebecca chooses to back. Ashleigh : Our very own super dele... pledge. Casey : Which is why I want her to nominate me at tonight's meeting. Ashleigh : You think she'll do it? Casey : She owes me one. But who knows? Rebecca is one tough nut to crack. Ashleigh : Yeah, she's like one of those pistachios with no opening. Casey : I hate those. Betsy : So do I. Casey : I just have to break her before Frannie does. Speak of the nutcracker. Ashleigh : Frannie's calling me, too. Betsy : And me. Frannie : It's up to each of you to decide the fate of ZBZ on election night. Who would you rather have leading the house, a sister with a proven track record like myself, or a sister with Lizzi on speed dial? Vote Frannie for ZBZ president! Casey : Uh, did Robo-Frannie seriously just drop a Lizzi bmb? KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : What's the problem, little buddy? Is is a rainy day or Monday? Those always get me down. Rusty : I'm fine. Cappie : I need to get back to this boss. For some reason I can't bat him. Rusty : It's just... I was reading through my journal last night... Cappie : You mean your diary? Rusty : No. Journal. And I realized this year's almost over and I only dated one girl. Cappie : And you see no obvious connection between this fact and the diary? Rusty : Journal. Cappie : Right. Well, you dated that... Jacqueline. Rusty : Jen K. Cappie : Right. What about Crabs Girl? Rusty : Hardly dated. Cappie : You went to the ZBZ formal last week. Rusty : Yeah, with my sister's best friend, as "friends." I just... I want to find someone to get excited about, you know? Cappie : You sure it's not a diary? Rusty : You're not doing much better. You only dated Rebecca this year. Cappie : Buck up, Bridget Jones. We just need to get back out there, cast a wider net. A date dash for the Tri-Pis, perhaps? Get those girls in your house, it's not a question of if, but when. Rusty : I got a better idea. Meet me at 4:00 at Dobler's. Cappie : Intriguing and done. Oh, wait, Rus, hey. By the way... Sorry about all the diary crap. You know, strictly between us, I've got one, too. Rusty : Really? Cappie : God, no. I'll see you at 4:00. Credits MICHAEL’S HOME – Living room Michael : She's about to sing “Anything Goes”. You're gonna miss it. Calvin : I don't think "miss" is the word I would use when “An Evening With Patti LuPone” is involved. Michael : I believe you owe me. I did watch the Ducks game with you last week. Calvin : When you agreed to it you thought I meant “The Mighty Ducks” movie. Michael : I'm an Estevez completist. And technically, it is still sports. Calvin : I just want to read my book, OK? Michael : What's going on? Calvin : Nothing. I just have a lot of studying to do. So, you know, I... I think I'm gonna go. Michael : Cal, we can watch something else. It's not a big deal. Calvin : It's OK. I, um... I'll call you tomorrow, OK? ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Casey : Hey, Little Sis, off to class? Rebecca : No, skydiving, actually. This is my parachute. Casey : That's so funny. Anyway, I was wondering, can I count on your support for ZBZ president? Rebecca : Casey, I'm sure you realize the success of the democratic process relies on the guarantee of privacy with one's vote. Casey : Of course. I also know that the only reason you have a voten is due to me standing up to Tegan on your behalf. Rebecca : Which I will definitely keep in mind on election day. Casey : I'm just curious, is there anything else we can put in your mind to help with your decision? Rebecca : I'll think about it while I'm at lunch with Frannie. Casey : You know, if I'm elected, Ashleigh and I were planning on moving into the... presidential suite and you had your eye on our room. Rebecca : I do like your room. Casey : It's a double. I can't promise. Rebecca : It's a double because of that other bed in there. If that bed were to disappear, though... Casey : Tell you what, I'll start looking into a way to tweak the floor plans after you nominate me at tonight's meeting. Frannie : Hey, Rebecca, just FYI, our mani-pedi rezies are at 12:30. They were totally booked, but I pulled some strings. Rebecca : I'm so sorry, Frannie, but I just realized that my nails look awesome. Thanks, though. Casey : How strange, turning you down at the last minute like that. Frannie : It's far from the last minute. DOBLER’S Cappie : Speed dating at Dobler's? This is your better idea? Rusty : The fliers are all over campus. You meet 20 girls in an hour. If you ht if off with one, you get to go out on a real date. Cappie : I've heard of this before. I believe we call them parties. Rusty : No, this is different. This is a group of college students who are all looking for the same thing. Cappie : A life? Rusty : A relationship. Something real. Something like I had with Jen K. Cappie : This whole thing reeks of desperation if you ask me. No offense. Rusty : Non taken. But you should know this event's sponsored by the women's volleyball team. Cappie : The volleyball team? Tall blondes with stamina? Hello. Woman : Sign in here, please, and that will be $10 each. Cappie : Sorry. I've got a policy. It's more of a code, really. I don't pay for things that I can get for free. Water, valet parking, Internet prn... I can meet any of these girls on campus at any time. Woman : That's great, Fonzie, but they charge us to rent the space. Rusty : OK, you know what, I'll pay for both of us. Cappie : Thanks, buddy. You know I can't break that code. Woman : You get 2 minutes with each girl, so make it count. Check off the girls you liked and if there's mutual interest, at the end of the session we exchange numbers for you. Pretty simple, right? Cappie : Will you be participating? 'Cause I would love to check you off. Rusty : So, what's your major? Cappie : So, what's your favorite position? Rusty : I'm a polymer science major. Cappie : I meant on the volleyball team. Where's your mind, you dirty girl! Rusty : What's polymer science? It's actually pretty fascinating. How much time do we have let? Cappie : No, you keep talking. I want to know all about you. Rusty : I'm in a frat, but we prefer "fraternity," actually. Would you call your country a... Cappie : Come on, of course I'm voting for you! In fact, let's just cut out the middleman here, pretend we're human beings, capable of making a love connection and I'll see if I ask you for your number. Rusty : We should vote for each other, you know. How can you really get to know somebody in two minutes? You'll see. I'm really kind of adorable. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Frannie : Casey must have offered up something huge for Rebecca to blow me off like that. Evan : So, you counter with a better offer. Frannie : And what exactly do you offer a sorority sister who has access to her own G-5? Certainly not chocolates. And honestly, I'm sick of kissing her ass. Evan : Just try another approach. You know, whenever my father deals with recalcitrant board members, sometimes bad news is just as effective as good news to shake things up. So, if telling her something she does want to hear isn't working, just tell her something she doesn't want to hear. Ext. CRU Rusty : How many numbers did you get? Cappie : Looks like ten. Rusty : Ten? Really? How many boxes did you check? Cappie : All of them. Rusty : All 20? Cappie : I took her advice. I voted liberally. Casey : Casey Cartwright for president. Rusty : Oh, out on the campaign trail? Casey : And on our way to lunch. Cappie : So, what's your stance on the wr in Iraq and your plan to correct the collapsing housing market? Casey : Nice shirt. Max : Hey, have you been to Jamaica? Cappie : No. Why? Max : I don't know. I thought that your... I'd think that... Uh, never mind. Rusty : We just went speed dating and I got two numbers. Casey : You guys were speed dating. Cappie : I don't really need to go speed dating. I just went for moral support. Rusty : Cap went ten for 20. I went two for four. Max : So, that's 50 percent each. So, it seems that you guys both had the same level of success, statistically speaking. Rusty : I know. Isn't that cool? Cappie : Well, no, I don't speak statistically. I got eight more potential dates, so how is that the same? Casey : Hey, you know what? Just good luck with your dates. And try not to bak the speed limit. Rusty : Thanks, Case. Good luck with your election. Try not to... Lose. Do you have any more buttons? I'll pass them around. Max : And, uh, try to keep the odds up. Cappie : OK. Max : It's good seeing you. Cappie : What a douche. ZBZ HOUSE – Metting room Casey : What happens tonight and at Thursday night's elections will shape the next year of our lives here at ZBZ. It's more than just a popularity contest or who loaned you their Gucci bag last week. Frannie : It should also be noted that campaigning is forbidden during the nomination meeting. Casey : Duly noted. Thank you, Frannie. Oh, and thanks... so much for that personal phone message this morning. It made each of us feel so special. So, let's begin our first round of nominations. ZBZ president? Rebecca. Would you make the first nomination? Rebecca : With pleasure. I'd like to nominate... Frannie Morgan. Casey : Oh, thank you so much for that. Rebecca has nominated me. Any other nominations? Rebecca : Actually, I said Frannie. Frannie : Yeah, I think she said me. Rebecca : Rebecca has nominated Frannie. Casey : Brenda, you had your hand raised. Brenda : Uh, actually, I was also gonna nominate Frannie. Casey : Would anyone else like to make a nomination? Anyone? Ashleigh : Casey Cartwright. Casey : Anyone else? All right, then. No, no? OK. Let's move on to social chair. A few minutes later... Casey : I thought we had a deal. Rebecca : We did. I found out about you and Cappie at Myrtle Beach. Casey : What about me and Cappie at Myrtle{Beach}? Rebecca : You two hooking up. Casey : What do you mean by hooking up? Rebecca : Stop playing dumber than usual. You two had sex. I know. Casey : Wait. That is so not true. Who told you that? Was it Frannie? Rebecca : It's all over the house! Casey : OK, come on, Rebecca, this just comes out the day before the election? I've been swiftboated. Rebecca : I saw you two on the beach, building sandcastles together. Casey : Yeah. As friends. Rebecca : So, you're saying you didn't hook up with Cappie over Spring Break? Casey : I did not have sex with that man. KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : What's up, Cappie? Cappie : How'd your date go last night? Rusty : She had eight piercings... below the neck. Cappie : You counted them? I mean, where were they? I'm partly grossed out, but just curious enough to require a visual. Rusty : I didn't see any. She just told me about them. She also said she hates dogs, she hopes to marry rich one day, then she said something else I won't even repeat because I think it's kind of fascist. Cappie : Next. Rusty : Yeah, it was doomed from the start. There weren't any sparks, not like there were with Jen K. Cappie : You're still into that girl? Rusty : She's the bar. Everything about her was perfect. Except that whole article thing. How'd your date go? Cappie : Well... Which one? Rusty : You had more than one? Cappie : Is there some rule I'm not aware of limiting the number of dates allowed in a single evening? I had a coffee date, a dinner date, a drinks date, and then a booty call date with the coffee date. Rusty : You went out with three girls last night? Cappie : They didn't all sleep over. I do have boundaries. And a realistic sense of my own libido after two pitchers. Rusty : I guess I'm just looking for something more than meaningless sex. Cappie : Why do you assume it was meaningless? It always means something to me. Rusty : OK. OK, fine. But I'm looking for something... more. Cappie : College is all about hook-ups and having tons of meaningful sex. You can settle down when you're 40, drive a Porsche, and have hair in the most unseemly place but for now, carpe diem, Spitter. Ext. CRU Evan : What's the score? Calvin : Seven-six. You. Evan : Easy there, tiger. That's like the third time you tried to throw this basketball through me. Calvin : Sorry. Evan : Did I do something to piss you off? Calvin : You know, when Frannie was out of town, I cheated on Michael because of you. Evan : Have your parents ever talked to you about peer pressure? Calvin : You made it seem like everybody cheats. That it's OK as long as nobody finds out. Evan : So you're mad at me because you cheated? Calvin : I'm just pissed because I did it. And because I'm keeping it from Michael. And because he and I are so different, you know. And because... I don't know what I want. Evan : Listen, maybe you should just tell him. Look, I mean, I speak from experience that when the other person finds out, deciding what you want becomes a non-issue. But either way the ball's in your court. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Casey : What flavor's that, Lemon Liar or Mint Chocolate Bitch? Frannie : I's raspberry sorbet, actually. Casey : Want a bite? I know it was you who started the rumor about Cappie and me. Not cool, Frannie. You're messing with people's lives and real emotions here. Rebecca is really hurt. Frannie : Oh, look at you. Suddenly so worried about poor, fragile Rebecca. Casey : You lied, which doesn't surprise me but it still annoys me. Politics is perception, poodle. And the truth is irrelevant. What the majority believes, that's what matters. Ashleigh : Oh, am I interrupting? Frannie : Not at all. I was just leaving. Ashleigh : OK, the house is alive with the sound of gossip. Please tell me you're not carrying Cappie's love child. I thought you two just kissed. Casey : We did just kiss. One tiny, miniscule little kiss! Frannie made up the sex rumor, knowing Rebecca would hate me for it and get the pledges to hate me, too. Ashleigh : Did you tell Rebecca the truth, that it was just a kiss? Casey : I can't! The damage is done. By the time Rebecca cools down to understand what really happened, the elections will be over. Ashleigh : So, what do we do? Casey : Find some dirt on Frannie, add water and sling mud right back. EXT. CRU Calvin : I cheated on you. Michael : No, Mom, that was nothing. I'm gonna call you back, OK? Calvin : I'm... I'm sorry. Michael : So, you hooked up with someone else? Calvin : You remember Heath from the bar? We used to sort of... date. Michael : Is it still going on? Calvin : No. Michael : Well, I guess we never talked specifically about exclusivity in our relationship. Calvin : You're taking this a little better than I imagined. Michael : Why? Do you want to break up? Calvin : I mean, don't you? Michael : I've had a lot worse happen to me in relationships. But listen, we don't have to figure this out right here, right now. I have to call my mom back. Let's just take some time and think and we'll talk more tomorrow night at my place. Calvin : Yeah, sure. OK. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Casey : L.C. to Audrina, come in. Ashleigh : Next time I get to be L.C. ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Casey : Fine, Audrina. Do we have a visual on Fran... I mean, Heidi? ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Ashleigh : Heidi's in the common room painting her nails with Brandi. Who we didn't give a code name to.How about Whitney? ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Casey : Forget the code names. I'm going in. Ashleigh : Are you in? Have you found anything yet? Casey : Checking the closet. She has more shoes th an Sarah Jessica Parker. Hello. What do we have here? Are you shoe shopping? I found a box of protein bars that went missing last week. The sorority paid for them! ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Ashleigh : Jackpot! ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Casey : Not enough. Even you and I have five boxes of Pop-Tarts stashed in our room. At least Frannie's being healthy. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Ashleigh : Have you seen the sugar count on those bars? Not so healthy. They're removing the cotton balls. They're removing the cotton balls! ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Casey : We need something else, something more. Ashleigh : I wish I was up there with you. This is like watching paint dry. In fact, it is watching paint dry. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Ashleigh : Hurry up. I'm getting nervous and when I get nervous I have to pee. And I refuse to pull a Betsy and go in the bushes! ZBZ HOUSE – Frannie’s room Casey : I just need one more minute. ZBZ HOUSE - Garden Ashleigh : You don't have one. They only did one coat! Casey! I mean, L.C. or whatever! They're coming up the stairs. Abort mission, abort mission! EXT. CRU - Restaurant Rusty : That was my first time speed dating, too. I was pretty nervous about it. Girl : All my friends are so outgoing, they do all the talking and I have a hard time meeting guys. I can be a little shy at first. Rusty : You know, shy is good. I mean, I like shy. Girl : I mean, I'm not really a body sht, dancing on the bar, wet t-shirt kind of girl. Rusty : Body shts are overrated. I mean, they're unsanitary. Girl : Really. Jen K. : Can I take your order? Rusty : Jen? Jen K. : I'm sorry. A few minutes later ... Rusty : I got it. So, do you do this all the time or just when you see me? Jen K. : Just you. Rusty : Maybe you can aim for somewhere less embarrassing next time, like my shoes. Jen K. : I'll try, I promise. Oh, geez, you're on a date. Rusty : First date. Jen K. : Is it going well? Rusty : It was. Jen K. : I'm so sorry. Rusty : So, what about you? You still seeing that guy? Jen K. : Who? Oh, no, we broke up a while ago. I mean, I broke up with him. Rusty : That's too bad. Jen K. : Yeah. Whatever. Rusty : Well, I should get back. Well... I'll see you around sometime. Jen K. : Probably in a few minutes when I come take your order. Rusty : Great. See you then. Sorry about that. Jen K. : Here you go. Girl : Do you guys know each other? Rusty : We... We used to date. Jen K. : Yeah, but he broke up with me. I mean, what I'm trying to say is, that he's a great guy. You're in good hands. ZBZ HOUSE - Hallway Ashleigh : Where do the lies end? How well do you know Frannie Morgan? Casey : Who is Frannie Morgan? You have a right to know the truth. She was never captain of the cheerleading squad. She was in band. First chair clarinet. ZBZ girl 1 : I played the violin. ZBZ girl 2 : I played Maria in “West Side Story”. Casey : Yes, which is fine. And pretty cool in retrospect. But it's not that she was in band. It's she lied to all of us about it. Oh, and remember how she said she was Miss Teen Indiana? Miss Turnip. Runner up. Ashleigh : Where do the lies end? How well do you know Frannie Morgan? Frannie : Trying to win some more girls by offering up your old room? Casey : Not exactly. Frannie : Where did you get this? Casey : Running for office can dig up dirty secrets. And politics is perception. Right, poodle? Want a bite? KT HOUSE - Garden Rusty : I ran into Jen K. last night at the Espresso Farm. Calvin : Really? Was she undercover, writing an expose on expensive cafes? Rusty : No, but she did ruin my date. Calvin : And that's good? Rusty : Yeah. It made me realize the girl I was with wasn't right for me. There weren't any sparks so I just have to keep looking. Calvin : For someone like Jen K? Rusty : For someone that makes me feel all tingly inside like she does. Did. Calvin : Why don't you just ask Jen K out again since you're obviously not over her? Rusty : You really think I should? Calvin : I don't know. I've been sort of thinking about the past lately, too. Rusty : I wish someone would just tell me what I want. Calvin : I know what you mean. How about I tell you if you should ask Jen K out again and you tell me if I should break up with Michael. Rusty : You're breaking up with Michael? Calvin : I don't know. You tell me. Rusty : What? Cappie : Beer pong. Great. This is... Clear beer? Rusty : It's water, Cap. It's only 11 a.m. Calvin : Yeah, we're just practicing. Heath : Beer pong. Very nice. Cappie : Don't be fooled, Heath. There is no beer here. Heath : What are they playing with? Cappie : You don't want to know. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Frannie : This next song holds a very special place in my heart. It definitely got me through some rough times. ZBZ Girl 1 : You're amazing, Frannie. Frannie : Thank you. But before I play again, I... want to welcome any questions that you may have for me. I'm used to dealing with bullies, although I thought I left them all back in high school. ZBZ Girl 2 : My question is very personal. How do you do it? How do you... How do you stay so upbeat and wonderful? It's not easy. But I have help. I have all of you. Casey : Oh, please. Rebecca : You missed a real Kumbaya moment. Apparently, when her parents got divorced all she had to console her was that stupid clarinet. Casey : They divorced when she was three, and that sounds suspiciously like a Lifetime movie she and I watched last year. You're not really buying this, are you? Rebecca : No. But Frannie didn't sleep with my boyfriend. Casey : We didn't have sex. We just kissed. Rebecca : And that's supposed to swing me to vote for you? Casey : It's the truth. Technically, you'd just broken up with Cappie. Regardless, it was just a moment and it hasn't happened since. And I'm sorry. That's the truth, too. Rebecca : You must be the world's worst politician. Casey : Maybe that's a reason to trust me. CRU – Max’s room Casey : So, let me get this straight. The stickers on the ceiling are actual constellations? Max : Yeah, it's what would be directly above us if there was no ceiling. Casey : I just thought they were pretty. Max : They are pretty. And accurate. Your wheels are spinning. Casey : It's this election. It's gonna be my senior year and my last chance to make a diference in the house. And the polls are saying Frannie won back a lot of votes after her little concert. Max : You guys have polls? Casey : Ashleigh. It's crazy. They don't even care that she lied about her past. Max : Is that crazy? I mean, I lie about embarrassing things from high school all the time. Casey : Oh, yeah? Such as...? Max : If you asked me what I did on my hour lunch break, there is no way I would ever tell you the truth. Casey : Let me guess. In the computer lab playing World of Warcraft. Max : Lucky guess. How... Wait. How did you... Casey : Two years carpooling with Rusty. He was a Rogue named Yarbinger. Max : Yarbinger? I did battle with Yarbinger. Probably something I should have lied about. Nice. Casey : No, no, you're right. I knew it wasn't gonna blow any minds that Frannie lied. But it was all I had. And now she's played the sympathy card, just like she played the redemption card at the convention. She got on Tegan's good side by ratting out Rebecca... Oh, my god. She ratted out Rebecca. Max : That bitch? Casey : I love it when you pretend to be catty. I have to go. I have a speech to edit. Max : See ya. EXT. CRU - Restaurant Jen K. : Dale got wasted? Your roommate who hated me from the moment he met me? Rusty : Yeah, but he doesn't know yet, so don't tell him. Jen K. : Do you remember my crazy roommate? Rusty : The agoraphobe? Jen K. : She finally moved. Dropped out of school and everything. But when her parents came to move her out she was totally fine. It was so weird. Rusty : I told you she was lying. Jen K. : Hey, so, how's Casey? Rusty : She's fine. Yeah, everyone's fine. Jen K. : Great. Rusty : Do you remember Vesuvius? Jen K. : Of course. Rusty : Gone. Got trashed at a wild party. Nothing but scraps now. It was a great party, though. Jen K. : I'm... I'm glad you called. Rusty : Same here. I've been thinking about you lately. Jen K. : Oh, yeah? Rusty : Yeah. I, um... Remembering stuff, like walking to class together. Like falling asleep in the dorm room together. And our first kiss. Jen K. : That was nice. Rusty : Yep. Jen K. : I'm glad you called. Rusty : You said that already. MICHAEL’ S HOME – Living room Michael : Great timing. The food just got here. Calvin : The place looks really great. Michael : I thought Moroccan food would be a nice change. There's a great place across campus. I promise you are going to love it. Here, let me take that. Calvin : You know, maybe we should go out. Michael : Just wait until you try the roasted lamb. Calvin : Yeah, I don't want the roasted lamb. I don't want Moroccan food. Michael : OK. What do you want, Calvin? Calvin : I just think that we should break up. I like you, Michael, I really do, I just... I think we're too different, you know. I mean, look. This isn't me. I like hamburgers and hockey and you like... you like Moroccan food and Broadway divas. Michael : How can you know who you are? You're 18. Calvin : Yeah, I know. You're seven years older and wiser than me, which seems to be an unavoidable theme between us. Michael : It is unavoidable. This is your first serious relationship. You have no frame of reference. I'm telling you this is normal. Calvin : Yeah, but I gotta do what feels right. That's what makes this such a tough decision. I'm sorry. Michael : I think you're making a mistake. ZBZ HOUSE – Meeting room Frannie : During my tenure as president, we were, without question, the strongest sorority on campus. With me back in office, we will carry on our legacy. We will party with the Omega Chis, and partner with them for every major event, like Rush Preferentials, Greek Week and Homecoming. With someone else in office, personal issues could get in the way, keeping apart the two most popular houses on campus. And let's be honest. That not only affects us, it affects the future of ZBZ. I don't know about you, but in ten years when I come back to visit, I hope to find Zeta Beta Zeta is still the best house on campus. Vote for Frannie and vote for the future. And I almost forgot. I won't raise dues. Casey : There is no pledge ZBZ, hm* ZBZ or senior ZBZ. There is only Zeta Beta Zeta and that's whose interests I want to represent. I have learned a lot as interim president. And I'm still learning every day. The difference between me and my opponent is that I learn from my mistakes and try to do better, while she just keeps pulling from the same bag of tricks. And is that what we want? More of the same? A president who was removed from office and has not learned a thing? Are you willing to risk going down that same road all over again? I can't promise to be flawless. But I can promise that I will be looking out for all of your interests, not my own. A vote for me is a vote for all of us. And I almost forgot. I won't rat out one of my sisters just to curry favor with Nationals, like Frannie did to Rebecca during Greek Week. Ashleigh : Stop! Stop! Can we please stop fighting! And tearing at each other and try to pull together! For the house. For our sisters. ZBZ Girl : Ballots are due in one hour. Don't forget, every vote counts. A few minutes later... ZBZ Girl : And now, the final two offices, as tabulated by ZBZ's own accounting major, who will be interning this summer at Pricewaterhouse Coopers, and who ensures the accuracy of tonight's votes. Ivy. Our new social chair... is Betsy. Betsy : I'm social chair! ZBZ Girl : And finally, ZBZ president is... by one vote... Ashleigh. Ashleigh & Casey : What? ZBZ Girl : Ashleigh won. Ashleigh : What? Casey : You... won. Ashleigh : What? Casey : How's that possible? You weren't even in the running. Rebecca : Third party write-in. Some of the sisters and I decided we're in need of a fresh perspective. Ashleigh : I had nothing to do with this, I swear! CRU – Jen K.’s room Rusty : You framed it. Jen K. : Sorry. I thought that we were past that. That's why you called, right? Rusty : Yeah. Sure. It's been six months. Don't you miss it, though? Jen K. : What, the Greek system? Not really. To be honest, I'm kind of surprised you stuck with it. Rusty : Why is that? Jen K. : I just never really thought those people or that world were really you. You know, even when I was writing the article, I think I gravitated to you because we were both kind of the outsiders. Rusty : Well, maybe you don't know me as well as you think. Jen K. : Maybe I don't. Rusty : Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. Jen K. : Maybe it wasn't. Rusty : I should probably just... I'm gonna go now. Jen K. : Rusty. Don't call me. EXT. CRU - Street Frannie : I can't believe I lost. It was so close, almost a three-way tie. Evan : Obviously you have a lot of the girls behind you. Frannie : Or had. Now we have to get behind Ashleigh? Yeah. Evan : Screw that. Listen, you may not be president, but... that doesn't mean you can't lead the house. ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Rebecca : Knock, knock. Casey : Go away, Rebecca. Rebecca : For what it's worth, which I'm sure isn't a lot, I'm sorry, Case. It wasn't personal. It was politics. Casey : I had great ideas for this house. Rebecca : Did you? Because I didn't hear any. All you talked about was turnips and clarinets. You played the politics perfectly. But great politicians are supposed to inspire people, not just be better than the alternative. Congrats, Ash. Ashleigh : Are you OK? Casey : I'm fine. Congratulations. KT HOUSE - Roof Rusty : You know, when I was with Jen K, I was convinced she was it. The one, or whatever. And ever since her I've compared every girl to the great Jen K. I've put her up on this pedestal. But even now I realize that even Jen K isn't really Jen K. Cappie : I had the exact same thing happen to me with The Goonies. They were in my top five all time, and then Beaver rented it last week. Man, did those kids chew the scenery. Rusty : I made a mistake by going back to her, but I guess I... I guess I'm glad I did. Cappie : Because now you know. She was your first, but she isn't the one. Calvin : I just broke up with Michael. Rusty : Really? Are you OK? Calvin : I think so. I mean, on one hand I feel relieved, you know. And on the other hand, I... can't help thinking that maybe I just broke up with my soul mate. What if one day I actually like Patti LuPone? Cappie : OK, well, first of all, who doesn't like Patti? Have you seen her in Gypsy? Second of all, you can always go back to your soul mate, that's what makes them a soul mate. Rusty : I'm gonna find my soul mate... someday. Cappie : I'll tell you what, fellas, I'm done with relationships for awhile I've only got five or six years left on this campus and I'll be damned if I waste a second of that time. Life is too short. And speed date number eight awaits. Can I get a spot, Spit? Rusty : Yeah. Cappie : While you're looking for that special someone might as well have a little fun, right? Rusty : Cap! Cappie : Thank god we didn't return this thing.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x08 - The Popular Vote"}	foreverdreaming
ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Casey : Good morning, prez! You all set for your first officers' meeting? Ashleigh : I guess so. How are you doing? Casey : Good. You know, I'm going to have some free time now so I thought I'd get a head start on finals. Ashleigh : I know you better than that. This is crazy awkward, right? You should be president, not me. I didn't even run I have no business being president. You know, I'm going to announce my resignation at the meeting and appoint you. I can do that. Casey : You can't do that. Ashleigh : Really? See? No business. You should've won. Casey : I was so preoccupied with beating Frannie, I never considered what the house really wanted. You won the election, they want you. We'd better get a move on. How would it look if you were late to your first officers's meeting? Ashleigh : Pretty bad, right? Casey : I just... I pass this on to you in the meeting. It's a ritual. It's in he book of rules and rituals. Ashleigh : OK, then, we'd better follow the book. Casey : Which I'll give you at the meeting, too. CRU Rusty : Two more weeks left in freshmen year, isn't that crazy? Which means we only have 2 more weeks to do all the things we wanted to do in the dorm. Dale : Such as? Rusty : We always talked about sleeping overnight in the laundry room dryers. Or sneaking up onto the roof. Dale : No, I've got too much respect for law and country and not enough time for shenanigans. I gotta find my new dorm for next year. I'm leaning toward Appleby and Wohlford, but the bathroom situation is not ideal. I mean, come on. Low-flush toilets? That's not gonna get the job done. Rusty : I thought you'd stay here. Dale : I can't. My new roommate's not in honors engineering. Rusty : You already have a new roommate? Dale : Well, you're shipping off to Kappa Torrid, and I couldn't just wait around and see what kind of nutbag the school stuck me with. Rusty : So who's the lucky guy? Dale : My old purity pledge bro, Kirk. Rusty : The one who goes to Bob Jones University? Dale : Went. It's in South Carolina and the climate wreaked havoc on his adenoids, so he's transferring. But he's more or less the coolest dude I know. Don't mind if he stays with us for a few days? Just to get our routine down. Rusty : Of course not. When are you planning on him coming here? Dale : I don't know exactly. My god, you're crazy. How long you been hiding behind my bed? Kirk : Four and a half hours. Dale : Good one! You're stealthy, man. I always said you should be a snper! Kirk : I appreciate that, Dale! Rusty : I'm Rusty. Kirk : Right. Dale : Here's what we do, get lunch, take a tour of Appleby, then go to the chapel. Credits ZBZ HOUSE – Meeting room Casey : Welcome everyone to our first post-elections officers meeting. So, I know this past week was... surprising for everyone. But it's time for all of us to look ahead as we transition to our new regime. So in the spirit of passing the torch, I'm proud to pass on the presidential gavel to my best friend and fellow sister, Ashleigh Howard. Sorry, sticky fingers. Anyway, your newly-elected president will now tell you what we, she, has coming this Friday. Ashleigh : This Friday at 7:30, Casey... We... have booked Dobler's for a night of sister bonding and fun before the end of the year! Betsy : Actually, since I'm the new social chair, shouldn't I be the one making that announcement? Ashleigh : Right, yes. I'm sorry. Betsy : It's OK. Laura : Excuse me, point of order! Ashleigh : Yes, Laura? Laura : Shouldn't we look ahead to next year's Rush instead of Dobler's? I mean, I get you were social chair and all but what's going on with fraternity Pref? Have the Omega Chis asked us yet? Ashleigh : I don't think so. Maybe? Casey : The Omega Chis haven't officially Pref'd us yet, that's true. But, I... we... she... has no reason to believe they won't. ZBZ Girl : Who the Omega Chis pick for their first mix is critical for us. It tells the incoming freshman we're the best. Pref sets the social stage for the entire year. Laura : If we don't begin Rush with the number one fraternity on campus, we could be screwed socially. We need this invite. Frannie : I don't mean to jump in, but it's a really simple solution. I can talk to Evan and we'll have that invite in no time. Casey : That won't be necessary, Frannie. It's under control. Moving on. Ashleigh : Right. Moving on. KT HOUSE – Living room Beaver : OK, I got one. Helen Mirren or Judi Dench? Who would you rather? Cappie : Helen Mirren is the obvious choice, but Dame Judi won an Oscar for 13 minutes of screen time. Imagine what she could do to me in an hour. Wade : You gotta choose. Cappie : When the choice is that difficult, there's really only one clear solution... both. Beaver : You can't do that, it's against the rules. Cappie : Come on. I'd love to be a part of that Queen Elizabeth sandwich. Wade : C'mon, you know you're a one-woman man. Cappie : I beg your pardon. Beaver : It's no big deal. You've just kinda turned into a serial monogamist. Cappie : Beav’, where'd you even learn that phrase? Beaver : Wikipedia. Wade : Cap’, it's not a big deal. So, you like to have one girlfriend. Cappie : Hey, I also like to have sex with hot chicks. Which I met a few during Speed Dating. Wade : Speed dating? Cappie : I went with Spitter for moral support. Beaver : Look, Wade means that when people call you a serial monogamist... Cappie : Hold on! People call me that? Wade : All the time. Cappie : Really? This is worse than I thought. Serial monogamist is just a stone's throw away from being "the marrying kind." I need to re-establish my reputation as the Titan of Tawdry. I need a threesome. Wade : You can't just make a threesome happen. Cappie : Yes, I can. And guess what? I will. This Saturday night. But I'll need help from both of you. Don't flatter yourselves. CRU – Rusty & Dale’s room Rusty : I've got the pepperoni. Kirk : More'zah! Rusty : Thursday's usually our'zah day, Dale. Dale : I totally forgot. God, I'm sorry. I figured you were eating most of your meals, at the frat house by now. Rusty : That'd be next year. Kirk : You're in a fraternity? Dale : Can you believe it? Your buddy Dale has lived a year with a liberal fornicator. Rusty : As opposed to the conservative kind? Why are there chess pieces on my bed? Dale : I figure, since we're going our separate ways, with you choosing to live in that petri dish and me taking the high road... Kirk, you OK? I figured we should divide up the community property. Amicably, of course. I just don't know how to split up the chess board. I don't know if we cut it in half, or just divide up the red and black squares? Rusty : Maybe I could hold onto it until next year, so we could play then? Dale : C’mon fight me for custody of the board? You're not gonna play it at the frat house. They're more the Chutes and Ladders crowd. Kirk : I can actually taste the fennel in the pepperoni. This pizza is fennelicious. Rusty : Fennelicious? Dale : That's funny, right? Kirk's always had a very healthy appetite and quite a facility with language, kind of like James Joyce, with the making up new words. And whatnot. It is fennelicious. Kirk : See? ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Ashleigh : So, a four-hour meeting wasn't a good sign, right? Casey : The house is definitely divided and the Frannie faction seems intent on making your life hell. So does Frannie. She just can't give up. Ashleigh : I can ask Frannie for help ust this once, right? She's still a sister. Casey : No! She's ingratiating herself again. She's using Evan as her wapon. The 1st rule of a good president is never let someone else tell you what to do. Ashleigh : That makes sense. Casey : So here's what you're gonna do... EXT. CRU Rusty : I'm just moving across campus and Dale seems to think I'm going to the moon. And the guy he's planning on replacing me with? "Kirk." Is it just me, or is that a really stupid name? You can never tell if he's saying Kirk or Kurt. So annoying. He also does this play-by-play of every bite of food that he chews. He described his gum as a minty fresh piece of paradise. Calvin : That's a little weird. Rusty : And Dale seems to think he's the second coming. You know what he does for fun? He hides in weird places then he jumps out of them to scare the crap out of Dale. Last night, I got home, I reached into my clothes hamper, and Kirk jumped out. He'd been hiding in there for an hour. I almost had a heart attck. Who does that? Calvin : Apparently, the second coming? Rusty : I'm serious. Calvin : No, I'd say you're jealous. Rusty : Of Dale? Calvin : No, of Kirk. I mean, You're upset that Dale's replacing you. But you've replaced him with an entire fraternity. Rusty : No, I'm not moving out for another two weeks, and I'm not replacing anybody. Living in the house will not affect my relationship with Dale. Calvin : Once you become permanent at KT, everything's supposed to stay the same? Come on, Rusty. Circumstances change, relationships change, life changes. You know, if you want to stay friends with Dale, you gotta just suck it up and get used to Kurt. Rusty : Kirk. DOBLER'S Casey : Remember, keep it casual and only between you, Evan and Dino. Ashleigh : What are you going to do? Casey : I'm just going to sit here in case you get in trouble. Ashleigh : Sounds like a plan. Here they come. Good evening, gentlemen. Thank you both for joining us. Now, let's talk about Pref. Dino : I'm gonna go grab a drink. Text me if you're in over your head. Evan : All right, thanks. Ashleigh : You guys are all transitioned, huh? Evan : Some more than others. Sorry to hear about your loss, Case. I mean, what an upset? Casey : I'm just here for support. Ashleigh : So, Evan, I was wondering when we might expect the Omega Chi Pref invite? Evan : Well, sorry to break it to you gals, but my brothers and I have decided to, you know, shop around a little before committing this year. It's nothing personal. Ashleigh : When do you think you might come to a decision? Casey : Because we're not going to wait forever. We're shopping around, too. Ashleigh : If you had to guess? Evan : It's hard to say when. Casey : Come on, Evan, you guys Pref with us every year. Just cut to the chase, set it, and move on. Evan : We've been getting a lot of attention from other sorities. Casey : Even though your girlfriend is a ZBZ? Evan : As presidents, we have to put the house first. That's right. I keep... Sorry. I keep forgetting you're no longer president, Case. Casey : We're done here. Or I'm done here. Ash, are we done here? Ashleigh : No. I... OK, yeah, I guess we're done here. EXT. CRU Rusty : I can't believe we had to sit in the first row. I don't think my neck will ever recover. Dale : I kinda liked it. It felt like we were right there in the action. Thanks, Kirk! Felt like we were inside the screen. Kirk : I know. That's crazy, right? Dale : Darn it, I forgot my cardigan. I'll be right back. Kirk : Get me some more popcorn! Dude, you gotta try this. This is delicious, with artificial butter flavor, the right amount of salt, and a bit of mustard just for fun. Rusty : No one ever eats Titan popcorn. It's probably been sitting out since 2001, the year. Kirk : Well, I, uh... I guess that's why I came prepared. I'm totally baked right now. Rusty : Baked? Kirk : But I'm actually kind of running a little low. I was wondering if maybe you could, you know, help me out? Rusty : Help you out? With what? Kirk : Can you score me some herb? Dale : This popcorn sucks. Kirk : Give me this. You probably didn't put enough butter on it. Dale : He's so demanding when he's hungry. CRU – Rusty & Dale’s room Kirk : Hey, uh, Dale. My battery's dad. Can I borrow your phone for a sec? Dale : Yes. How about a little Trivial Pursuit, Bible Edition? "Eve in garden tempts man with apple and lady parts." What book? Kirk : Maybe later. Dale : Genesis. It was Genesis. Who are you writing to? Kirk : My mom. Dale : Cool. How about a little Bible Boggle? Remember at Youth Group, when you spelled Leviticus and Harvey Brubauer started crying? Bud?!!!!! Kirk : Dale, your pajamas flew out the window. Dale : Must be the lightweight cotton. You know, 'cause my winter flannels never have that problem. All right. I'll be right back. Rusty : What's wrong with you? Kirk : C'mon! Considering you're in a fraternity, I just figured you'd be cool with it. Rusty : Why don't you have this conversation with your future roommate? Kirk : Settle down, it's not like I'm Mr. Wake and Bake. At least not every single day. I just do it to relax. And It also comes in handy with stale popcorn. Rusty : But you're Dale's purity pledge brother. Kirk : But I'm on Rumspringa. Rusty : Isn't that only for the Amish? Kirk : Yes, technically. But I just think God wanted me to take a break. Rusty : You got kicked out of Bob Jones University, didn't you? Kirk : Let's just say we agreed to part company and the only way my parents would send me to school again was if I agreed to come here, room with Dale in the Dooby-Free Shop Rusty : You don't plan on telling him? Kirk : Dale? KT HOUSE – Living room Rusty : So why a 70s theme party? No one here was alive during the 70s. I wasn't even alive during the 80s. Wade : Ah, youth. Cappie : The 70s was when debauchery was invented, Spitter. And tonight I plan to carry on in that same sordid tradition by having myself a threesome. Ben Bennett : Wait. Wasn't debauchery invented in ancient Rome? Beaver : Actually, the modern concept of debauchery defines its origins as the pagan spring equinox of antiquity. Wikipedia. Rusty : You're planning a threesome? Cappie : You can't plan it. That's be sleazy. It's best to create to create a conducive world for the impromptum ménage à trois. Rusty : It seems to me that anytime you have three people involved in anything someone's always left out though, right? Cappie : There are worse things than being the odd man out in a threesome. Casey : Yep, I'm definitely in a fraternity house. Cappie : Hypothetically speaking. Casey : Hey, Rus. You got a sec? I'm sorry, I don't know how to start. I usually talk to Ashleigh about this kind of stuff and I know you're going to judge me. Rusty : I don't always judge. Casey : I'm pissed at Ashleigh. Rusty : Cause of the election? That's crazy. It's not like she ran against you. She's your best friend. Casey : I know! I know you're right. I lost. She won. She's my best friend. But I've been working towards this since my hm year. All the things I wanted to do to make next year amazing. My last year. And now I can't. I'm jealous of my best friend and it sucks. Rusty : It's better than being jealous of some random kid named Kirk. Casey : Who's Kurt? Rusty : Don't even get me started. He's An old friend of Dale's who's bad news. But if I tell Dale I know it's gonna hurt him. Casey : Like it might hurt Ashleigh if I don't help her get through Pref. Rusty : I mean, but it's for their own good, for us to get involved. Casey : We should always do what's best for friends. Rusty : Yes, even if it might appear to favor us in some way. Casey : Good talk. EXT. CRU Calvin : So, how does it feel to rule the world of Zeta Beta? Ashleigh : It sucks. I think I could be great, but this was always Casey's thing. And now that it's my thing, and I can't help but realize I don't know what the hell I'm doing. Calvin : You've gotta give yourself some time to learn. Ashleigh : It's hard to learn, though, when the only person you ever go to for advice wishes she was doing what you're doing, or trying to do. She's obviously more qualified. Calvin : You know, maybe it'd be best for both of you if you didn't rely on Casey so much. Just go with your gut. Ashleigh : Well, that's why I'm here. I was hoping you'd do what you did last time. Talk to the guys, get them on our side about Pref before any other sorities got involved. Calvin : Every sorority is involved. They've been courting us for the past week. Ashleigh : I wish I could talk to Casey about this. Calvin : Look, I know you're trying to be sensitive to Casey's feelings and all, but you're president. That means you can't stand safely behind in her shadow anymore. And that means you can't take a backseat on any issue, including Pref. You're gonna be the one held responsible for what happens, so you've gotta be the one who's driving the bus. All right? CRU – Rusty & Dale’s room Rusty : Where is he? Dale : Who, Kirk? He went to the bathroom a while ago. He spends a lot more time in there han I remember. It may be a fiber issue. Rusty : Last night after the movie, Kirk asked me to score him some herb. Dale : Basil or tarragon? Rusty : Weed. Dale : Like dandelions? Rusty : Marijuana. He's a serious pothead. Dale : Come on. Good one, Rus. That's my BFF, man. I was there and watched him take an oath in front of Pastor Chuck and the entire Baptist youth group to stay away from illegal substances and corrupting influences for all eternity, longer if necessary. Rusty : Look at the signs. He's always hungry. Dale : High metabolism. Rusty : Bloodshot eyes? Dale : Allergies. I told you, that's why he transferred! Rusty : He mistook my slippers for bunnies. Dale : Rusty, they're bunny slippers. It's an easy mistake. All right, you know what, Kirk is my best friend. And he's my pledge bro, and he's my new roommate. And next year we're going to have fun, good wholesome fun, all year, in our room, together. Rusty : Come on, I'm not... Dale : No. I don't have time. Cause Kirk is probably trapped in the stall again, and I have to go help him. Because that's what friends do for each other. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Laura : Jen F told me that the Gamma Mu's baked a gingerbread replica of the Omega Chi house. And the Pi Delta Epsilons set up a bikini car wash. Betsy : Are they still out there? My car's pretty dirty. ZBZ Girl : This is ridiculous. Frannie should just talk to Evan. Casey : Hang on, guys. Everyone calm down. I have a better idea. Ashleigh : Hey Casey, I've been thinking. And I've decided we should just talk to Frannie. I really... Casey : Don't worry. I have it covered. Trust me. All right, girls, t's time to get it on! OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Living room Evan : Hey, everybody, we've got company. Betsy : The sisters of ZBZ invite all of the Omega Chis to a night of pleasure and pain at Dobler's. The pleasure will be us. And the pain will be provided by that really big boxing pay-per-view on a really, really big screen. Dino : Looks like you have another front-runner for Pref. Evan : Great. Dino : Y'know, there are some things I'm gonna miss about this. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Frannie : Hey, what's going on out there? Evan : Ashleigh, or more likely Casey, just gave us an offer we can't refuse. Frannie : I'm not surprised, but I'm also sure you're gonna continue to hold off the brothers until I make my move. Evan : Well, If I hold off the Pref invite much longer, the guys may actually decide to go with another house, and not ZBZ. The bikini car wash, that was a huge ht. Frannie : Oh, please, the Gamma Psis are almost as slutty as the Tri Pis. Evan : Yeah, but I mean, only you and Calvin see that as a downside Maybe we should Pref with someone else. I mean, Casey would never recover in the house from that. Frannie : But neither would I. Evan : OK, well, you know... I can make up an excuse to make us late tonight, but I can't keep them away forever. Frannie : Trust me, Ashleigh will cave. Evan : You sure you don't have any Chambers blood coursing through those veins? Frannie : Very sure. Evan : You know, I know almost nothing about your family. Frannie : I'm not one to whine about my tragic past. With anyone. I'm gonna go. I'll call you later. KT HOUSE – 70’s party Girl : Hey, Wade. Wade : Hey, Rollergirl. Far out. Beaver : I can dig it. Girl : All right. Hey, Cappie. Cappie : Hey, Rollergirl. So, where's this friend you keep telling me about? Girl : I think you'll really dig one another. This is Cappie. Cappie : Excuse me one moment. So, I was thinking, maybe if we just... I'll take that as your third and final "no." Rusty : I tried to warn him, but he wouldn't listen. You know what, he deserves the cheese weasel. Calvin : Did you just say "cheese weasel"? Rusty : I'm moving on. Next year, I'm Dale-free. I'm just glad to be getting out of there alive. Calvin : So, uh, which one of these rooms is gonna be yours? Rusty : Here. Calvin : Rusty, it's a pigsty. Rusty : It's only messy because it's Ferret's room. He's the house slob. Calvin : Is Ferret human? Rusty : Once he moves out, I'll clean it up. It'll be good as new. Beaver : Guys, I found something we can put the extra beer in! Calvin : And what does one have to do to be labeled the house slob of Kappa Tau? Cappie : I said "freeway!" Lisa Lawson! Lisa : Cappie Cappie! Cappie : Just the girl I'm looking for. Really. Do you by any random chance happen to remember a conversation you and I had last year at the Cinco de Mayo party? Lisa : I would love to have a threeway. Cappie : No better time than now. Meet me upstairs. I'll find a ménage for our trois. Heath : Beverage? Calvin : Thanks. You look far-out. Heath : I'll take that. So, how are things with you? Calvin : I'm OK. I'm single now. Which is kinda how I like it. Heath : I totally know how you feel. Calvin : So, uh, it's cool if we're just friends? Heath : How about we're friends that go to Gentleman's Choice together? Calvin : Ah, Good call.There's too many straight horny people around here. Cappie : Great idea, huh? Nice costume. Dale : I'm not wearing a costume. Cappie : Dyn-o-mite! Rusty : Hey, Cap’ ! Dale? What are you doing here? Dale : Well, You know, Kirk kind of sensed that there was some tension between us, and, being the peacemaker that he is, he insisted we come find you and clear the air. You know, he once brokered peace between a Presbyterian and a Methodist. Kirk : Hey, I wanna dance! Dale : All right. See, he's so happy that we're talking again that he's dancing to evoke joy. And you know, it's like a fever. It's catching on I don't know. I'm feeling it, too Let's all just dance our anger away. You know? Right, Kirk? All right, is there anything else you want to say to me? Rusty : Glad you came by. Dale : Good, good. Good. Good, good. Well, you know, I'm probably gonna grab Kirk and head back to the dorm, then. We've got a big day tomorrow. We're taking a tour of Benson Hall. Their salad bar has garbanzo beans and pine nuts. He wants to sample both of them. You've seen his appetite. I don't have to tell you. DOBLER’S Casey : Um, They're coming. In certain cultures, like Spain or Los Angeles, 20 minutes late is early. Laura : And we're in Ohio. Casey : Which is exactly why there's nothing to worry about. Frannie : Clearly this wasn't your idea, Ash. Ashleigh : Did Evan say anything to you about coming? Frannie : I'm not sure. He did say some of the guys thought the invite was kind of desperate. But whatever. It's not your fault. You listened to Casey. Are you sure you don't want me to at least call him? Text Evan? Casey : Everything's handled, Frannie. Ashleigh : Maybe we need to ask her... Casey : Don't worry, the Omega Chis will show. Evan doesn't have that much power. See! Guy : Just here for my shift. Ashleigh : That's it, Case.I gotta go with my gut. I'm just... gonna ask Frannie to call Evan. It's fine. Casey : Don't open that door. You've seen what she did to me. Ashleigh : But I'm not you. Casey : Trust me, it's a really bad idea. Ashleigh : As bad as this one? Casey : So, you're taking her side? Ashleigh : I'm taking our side. The house is tired of all the politics and your fight with Frannie. This is a sorority, not the Middle East. They just want peace and a Pref invite from the Omega Chis. Casey : I'm trying to help you. Ashleigh : And I'm president, and I'm making my first executive decision. KT HOUSE – 70’s party – Cappie’s room Girl : Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, a lot of guys would be nervous with two girls. Cappie : Trust me, that wouldn't even begin to describe what I'm feeling right now. Lisa, I want you to meet the third member... Girl : You? Lisa : You? Cappie : Me? Girl : Skank-monster stole my boyfriend last year. Lisa : I didn't steal him. I just had sex with him. Cappie : Girls, girls, come on. I think I speak for all red-blooded males here when I say let's just kiss and make up. Lisa : This is too weird, Cap. Sorry. Cappie : That's a mood kller. Girl : Actually, I really want to get back at my ex. I'm still in. Cappie : Mood's back! Girl : My sister, Janette, is downstairs. Cappie : Sister? Girl : Sorority. She's mentioned wanting to do this before. Cappie : Thank God for sororities. Girl : I can get her. Cappie : And risk losing you both? You stay right here. I'll go get Janet. Girl : Her name's Janette. Cappie : Whatever. KT HOUSE – 70’s party Cappie : Anyone seen a Gamma Psi named Janet? Dale : Well, the smooth waltz certainly has changed. It may be an Austrian version. Yeah, those knee slaps. That's definitely Viennese. Kirk : What's the Hustle? That's a dance, right? We should totally do that! Dale : You know what? This is all your fault. Rusty : Mine? What did I do? Dale : Five minutes in your little den of iniquity and you've driven Kirk insane. Kirk : Who wants chimichangas? Dale : Oh, That's smart. With all his dancing, he brought an electrolyte infused sports drink to stay quenched. Rusty : Smell it. Dale : It's rather pungent. Rusty : It's tequila! Dale : You know, maybe one of your KT bros planted it on him. Rusty : Dale, will you face the facts? Kirk is wasted. He drinks and he smokes pot and God knows what else! Dale : You're making up lies. Rusty : You're completely blind. Dale : You wanna take this outside, cowboy? Rusty : We're already outside. Dale : Good. Cop : Break it up, boys. Is that an open container of alcohol? Rusty : It's OK. I'll handle this. Dale : I'll handle this. Kirk. Kirk : Got it. Cop : Let's see some Ids. Kirk : You don't need to see their Ids. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : Chrissy, I found Janet! Janette : Janette. Cappie : Whatever. Hey, she... she's gone. Janette : Yes, but I'm not. Cappie : No, but we should find Chrissy. Janette : Oh, she's probably just grabbing a drink. Cappie : Did you hear a knock on the door? Was that us? Janette : Fine, you big baby. I'll find Chrissy and we'll do your damn threesome. Cappie : Thank you. Just come and knock on my door when you get back. CRU - Jail Dale : You know, Kirk, I think we just gotta look on the bright side here. 'Cause now you can get clean and sober before school starts. We won't miss a day being roommates. We'll never watch the E! Channel again. 'Cause it is full of temptation. You know, with all the aging trollops and, anyway, and then me and the other PP brothers can come down to rehab over the summer, next year we can all sing the praises of restraint and abstinence together. Rusty : Hey ! Kirk : Dale! Dale! Stop! Stop! Don't you get it? I've changed. I don't want to be Mr. Goody-two-shoes anymore. I don't want to be your roommate and I don't want to be your friend. Dale : I can manage my own friendships. Rusty : I'm not trying to tell you how to manage your friendships. I just want to tell this guy that he's a douche and he's an idiot and you have no idea who you're turning your back on. You don't! Dale : Hey ! Turnkey! When're we getting sprung from this godforsaken hellhole? Cop : Right now. Kettlewell and Cartwright? You're clean and free to go. You have a stupid name. DOBLER’S Ashleigh : Well, the guys made it. Casey : My lemon drop and I are happy for you. I do wish you luck, however Ashleigh : Why? We got the Omega Chis. All I had to do was ask Frannie for a little help. Casey : There's no asking Frannie for a little anything. Ashleigh : Case, it's time to make peace and move on. Casey : Wars aren't over when one side stops fighting. Look around. Frannie's the hero. Maybe If she's feeling generous she'll give you back the silver platter you served us up on. Ashleigh : So, now it's all my fault Frannie's in charge? Casey : No, it's much worse than that. Since we base our entire identity as a house on the Omega Chis, it's our fault that the new president of Zeta Beta Zeta is Evan Chambers. I'm going home. KT HOUSE – Cappie’s room Cappie : Who's ready for round two? Wade : Round two? Cappie : What? We... We didn't... You, um... Beaver : These two crazy girls hooked up with Jeremy in our room last night. And every extra bed was taken. Wade : So we bunked here. Cappie : Uncomfortable moment averted. We didn't have round one, did we? Beaver : No. Wade : Of course not. Cappie : Never. Wade : Definitely not. Beaver : Probably not. Cappie : Excellent. Breakfast? Nice pajamas, Beav. Beaver : Thank you. They floated down from the sky. The cotton's really lightweight. Little itchy, though. ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Casey : Hey Ashleigh, I wanted to tell you that... Betsy : Big news! Evan just called, and the Omega Chis are inviting us to Pref tonight. Laura : Looks like it worked, Frannie. Ashleigh : Before we all get excited about the Omega Chis, I've already asked the Lambda Sigs to come by so we can accept their invite to Fraternity Pref. Frannie : The Lambda Sigs? You've got to be kidding. Laura : They're the number two house on campus. Ashleigh : Sure, now. But maybe by Preffing with us, they'll become number one. Frannie : Yeah, that's not how it works. The Omega Chis are number one. Ashleigh : Really? Well, not according to a girlfriend of mine. See, my friend is the one who dictates who's cool. Laura : What? Ashleigh : Nope, it's not Casey. You see, this friend has never cared what other people thought of her. And you know what? Everyone fell in love with her for it. Frannie : And she lived where? Fantasyland? Ashleigh : I don't think Fantasyland would've had her, Frannie. See, she spent years with a vial of blood around her neck, and during the biggest night of her life she made out with her own brother. Frannie : Great, OK, so she's a freak too. Why don't we rush her right after we get done pairing up with the Lamda Sigs? Ashleigh : No, we're not going to rush her, because she... is Angelina Jolie. Betsy : Ashleigh's friend with Angelina Jolie? Casey : No, I think she's an analogy. Betsy : I thought she was an actress. Ashleigh : See, after Angelina ditched Billy Bob, she stopped letting guys define her. She got cool, all on her own. Casey : And it's not because she's with Brad Pitt. Even though it doesn't hurt. Ashleigh : The fact is, we can be like Angelina. We can be unique and cool and crazy and weird and generous and totally gorgeous too. Frannie : Ashleigh, now's not exactly the time for an us Weeklyrecap. Ashleigh : I want to know... why we're letting a bunch of guys define us? We'll choose what's awesome and who's cool and we'll choose who's number one. We can have it all, because we can be Angelina Jolie, too! EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Omega Chi Guys : (Singing) Brothers in our garden true Forever in unity Omega Chi, here we are Betsy : Hello, guys, hi. I'm Betsy, for those of you who don't know me. I'm the new social chair. Omega Chi Guys : Hi, Betsy. Betsy : So, we really appreciate your invitation to Pref next year. But we've voted and we're going to turn you down. Oh, and it's because of Angelina Jolie. Omega Chi Guy : Angelina Jolie is a ZBZ? CRU – Calhoun Hall Rusty : Dale, wait. Why won't you talk to me? Dale : I'm getting used to the sound of my own company. Rusty : Come on. Seriously. Dale : No, 'cause you were right about Kirk. I didn't want to see it. Rusty : You were right, too. I didn't want to think anything would be different when we're not roommates anymore. But it will be. Dale : Yeah, I know, hence my embrace of solitude and reinforcement of personal space. Rusty : I'm not going to disappear, or turn into a drug addict. Dale : You still up for a trip to that roof? Rusty : What about your respect for law and country? Dale : Come on, man, we've already done hard time. What's the worst that can happen now, huh? Rusty : I was just thinking the same thing. We should do something. Dale : Yeah. Rusty : Something dramatic. Dale : OK, OK. Rusty : Let's sing the school fight song. Dale : All right. You ready? Two, three, four. Both : Far above the hills and valleys... Dale : What are you doing? These look like hills? These are mountains. Rusty : We should put "learn the CRU fight song" on our list of things to do before we move out. Dale : Let's just... let's just put it on our list of things to do together next year. ZBZ HOUSE – Living room Casey : Let me get that, Madame President. Ashleigh : I'd feel better if we'd won the decision to turn down the Omega Chis by more than three votes. Casey : Well, you won the presidency by one vote. Now you're up by three. It just means you're making progress. Ashleigh : It's going to be a little scary, not being able to rely on the Omega Chis. Casey : Ash, you're my president. And my best friend. I want to help. Sometime's it's hard when things change and you don't want them to. Ashleigh : But you're OK with it? Casey : More than I was last week. It's going to take a little time. But I promise I'll be OK. Eventually. CRU – Calvin’s room Evan : Calvin Owens! Hell Week, buddy. Let's go. Awkward. Come on, let's go, let's go. Get up, Calvin, let's go! Come on! CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Rusty : Kirk? Is that you? Cappie : Two things, Pledge. First of all, when you're wearing pantyhose on your head, never wear control top. Second of all, welcome to Hell Week. Your ass is mine! Get him out of here Dale : Hey, Chip. Cappie : Hey, Dale.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x09 - Three's A Crowd"}	foreverdreaming
KT HOUSE Cappie : Don't worry about these love handles. Rusty : What love handles? Cappie : Pledge frolicking session in five, those puppies will melt right off, big guy. Wade : Remember, you may leave for class, but you go straight there and back. No stopping for eating or sleeping or socializing. Your souls belong to us. Beaver : Show me angry, pledges. Wade : Come on, angry! Yeah. That's it. That's it. Work it. Beaver : Now you're sad. You're sad. I'm lost in the forest. Now, uh... now you're a cobra! Ben Bennett : Dude, they painted my pepperonis blue. It's permanent ink! Rusty : We've come this far, only a few more days, we're as good as initiated. Cappie : I nitiated? Sure, Rusty. You pledges have endured many a Hell Week trial. Like, Bobbing for Hairballs, the Rhinoceros Walk, and even that rousing game of Hide the Pickle... we found eventually. Pickle : I had a sweet hiding spot. Wade : Back in line, sweetie! Cappie : But what you don't know, Rusty... Keith : Why do you keep calling him "Rusty"? Wade : Because, Keith, "Spitter" is his KT name. Cappie : And, he has no guarantee of becoming a Kappa Tau. Oh, no. None of you do. Every Hell Week at least one pledge is found wanting and expelled. Rusty : You'd really kick one of us out? Cappie : Or more. The brothers will use a final round of trials to determine which pledges will become initiated, And which ones will go home... for good. Just like Dancing With the Stars, except there's no dancing and there's no stars. Remember, it's three strikes and you're out. Just like baseball, except there's no bases and there's really no balls. Now frolic! Come on, pledges, frolic! Let's see it. Like nymphs, like nymphs, come on. You're in the woods, you're frolicking in the woods. You're having a car wash. Suds are being thrown everywhere. OMEGA CHI HOUSE Evan : We've been at this for three days and still some of you maggots can't do 50 push ups? Come on, let's go. Trip : This sucks. I can't do any more. Calvin : Come on. It could be worse. Evan : We got another one. God, that stinks. Omega Chi Guy : There goes Owens. Next victim. Evan : No, no. Wait. I got a special punishment for Calvin. He's got to clean O'Toole's bathroom sink. Calvin : But he manscapes in there! Evan : I don't want to hear it. Let's go. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Honor room Calvin : This does not look like O'Toole's bathroom. Evan : This, Pledge Owens is our Honor Room. And you're just here to clean it. Calvin : That's it? I don't have to... use my toothbrush or anything? Evan : Nope. I mean, consider yourself spared. Calvin : Can you do that? Evan : Calvin, I can do whatever I want, I'm the president. Calvin : Big Bro to the rescue. Where to start? ZBZ HOUSE Brenda : No way. Quit whining, man, you're a pledge! Dude, eat it! Eat the chocolate poo! I gotta be openly mean to you, to offset the hm of so many of our rituals. So eat it! Damn! That was nasty, bra! Rebecca : But, dude, I'm ready to get initiated. Beth : That was so real. ZBZ Girl : Yeah, Beth. Rebecca : Hey, got a sec? I wanted to talk to you about the gift exchange... Laura : Casey, your boyfriend is ruining Inspiration Week. Casey : One sec, Becks. Ashleigh : Hurry or you'll miss Sister Circle. Laura :He just walked right in. Max : It was open. I'm sorry. Casey : Come on, don't worry about it. Max : Sorry, I didn't... Casey : It's OK... Casey : Thanks for saving me from all the sister bonding, I need a break. Like a summer of fun break. Since I'm no longer ZBZ president, I'm no longer obligated to prep for next year's rush. It's just you and me. Barbequing, sipping mojitos... Max : I got accepted to grad school. Casey : I know, at CRU. Which I was excited about the first time you told me. Max : No. A different school... In California. Casey : California, Ohio? Max : No, uh, California, California. Cal-Tech. I applied before we even met. And I hadn't heard anything, so I just figured, I assumed... Casey : So, Cal-Tech. Which means after our summer of fun... Max : We'd only be two thousand, two hundred and twenty-nine point three miles... away from each other. Credits OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Evan’s room Evan : OK, look, here we go. We could book a red eye leaving for Kona right after your last final. Frannie : Evan, we can't. There's so much to do. We have all those appointments booked with the realtors. Besides, we're going to meet your family in the Hamptons Memorial Day weekend. Evan : Yeah, well I thought we could do something just the two of us. Frannie : Do you not wanna see your parents? Evan : No, fine, whatever. I'll go. Frannie : Good. Because for a minute there I thought it was about the realtors. I know it's a big commitment. Evan : No, that, I am actually excited about. Frannie : Me, too. I'll see you later? Evan : Yeah. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Rebecca : Big Sis, ready for Sorority mssacre Movie Night? Casey : Yay, done naked girls. One sec, Becks. Ashleigh : The pledges want more rootbeer floats. We're out of rootbeer. Help me out? Casey : This isn't part of your duties, Frannie's Pledge Educator, she's in charge of I-week. Ashleigh : I haven't seen her since yesterday. Casey : Two weeks ago she was klling for the Presidency, now she's skipping Movie Night. I'll get some more rootbeer. Ashleigh : Thank you.Oh, and let's walk on the wild side. Get regular, not diet. Casey : Um, can I ask you a question first Ashleigh : Is it about the Big-Little gift exchange? Casey : It's about you and Travis. I wanted to know what it was like being in a long distance relationship. Ashleigh : Well, it sucked. I basically wasted two years of college dating a total jerk. We were never around each other long enough to realize it. Then there's the travel costs, the phone bills, the trying to have phone sex when you get spotty reception. The pressure to make the most of your visits, not to mention the fear of him cheating on you. Casey : OK, I get it. Max is leaving for Cal-Tech in three months, and he wanted to know if we're still staying together. Ashleigh : But, it'll be great for you guys. I'm... I'm sure Max has good cell phone service. Casey : How am I supposed to make this kind of commitment, when we've only dated for a month and a half? Ashleigh : Well, why do you have to decide now? Just enjoy the next three months and whatever happens, happens. EXT. CRU Calvin : Get down. They might see us. Rusty : I am going to get dung out. Calvin : Come on, they love you over there, you're the president's Little Brother. Sure you get special treatment. Rusty : From Cappie? He blindfolded me and made me reach into the upstairs toilet. Calvin : OK, that's enough. Rusty : No, it was just peanut butter. Calvin : That's actually kinda funny. Rusty : No, he made me eat it. Calvin : And it's disgusting again. Rusty : I'm sure Evan enjoys inflicting pain on you guys. Calvin : Not me. If anything, Evan's intentionally going easy on me. Rusty : How do your pledge brothers feel about that? Calvin : I don't think they know. I mean, I've been cleaning the Honor Room instead. Which reminds me. Guess what I found? Rusty : What? Calvin : Your old Omega Chi pledge paddle. Rusty : The one I ht Evan with? Calvin : I'd think he would've torched that by now. It's definitely yours. There's a nose-shaped dent in it. Rusty : That was a pretty big swing. Thanks, man. You almost made me forget about Hell Week. Dale : You wouldn't know hell if it stuck you in the bottom with a pitchfork. Here, no peanut butter, just like you asked. Rusty : Thanks. Dale : Don't forget. I'm leaving tomorrow at 3:00. Rusty : I'll be there. Stop worrying. Calvin : Wait, finals aren't until next week. Dale : I already took them. I'm taking off early to Rockdale, Alabama 4- H circuit with Darwin Lied. We're opening up for Intelligent-D. It's gonna be off the hook. Calvin : Rock on. Rusty : All right, I'm out. Hopefully the next time you see me, I'll be a Kappa Tau brother and not a wash out. Calvin : Stop worrying, just embrace the humiliation and you'll be fine. Rusty : How would you know? Dale : Listen, just don't let them tie a brick to your goat-whacker. CRU – Max’s room Max : Why? You're laughing. Casey : Everybody laughs when their feet get tickled. It's a reflex, as you know, science dork. Stop! Oh, stop! We're gonna be fine. Max : You mean you're OK with a long distance relationship? Casey : But, I am ready to commit to you an amazing summer with you. And figuring it out from there. Max : Summer for now. That'll be fun. Casey : How much fun? Max : I don't know. KT HOUSE Cappie : Surprise! Rusty : Oh, God. Cappie : So cute. Rusty : I can do this. I got the eye of the tiger and I'm ready to fight. Cappie : Let the Trial by Fish begin. Beaver : Feisty little guy. Cappie : Be careful... Beaver : I accidentally scooped you three fish, Rusty. But, we have faith in you. Cappie : Now pledges, take your cups and first of all... Rusty : Done. Heath : What do you mean "done"? Rusty : Finished. That was quick. Beaver : It's empty! Where the hell are they?! Rusty : In my belly. Cappie : What the hell were you thinking?! You're supposed to take care of the fish, not eat them! Rusty : Why'd yougive us bibs? Cappie : This is a baby fish papoose pouch! Beaver : He mrder the poor little fishies. That's officially strike one, Sushi Boy. Rusty : No! Cap! Cap, n... no! I was only doing what you wanted me to do. Embracing humiliation. Cappie : I can't protect you on this one. You're going to have to pass Judgment Day with flying colors. Or else! Ext. ZBZ HOUSE Rebecca : Oh, my God! Did someone strangle a chipmunk? Brenda : Big-Little gifts are so cheesy. Yay, can I please get a sterling silver ZBZ cat to put on my shelf of stuff I'll throw away in a month? Rebecca : I know, right? Can I please get a ZBZ patchwork quilt? I'm redecorating my cabin up at Lake Tacky-Crap. Ivy : Brenda, this is for you. Brenda : Oh, my God! I love it! I love you! I love you, too. Ashleigh : Isn't Ivy the sweetest? I got a blender! For protein shakes. But if that's true, why did she include this little bag of margarita salt? It's perfect for the summer. Rebecca : Fun summer. Ashleigh : So you got any crazy parties coming up with your high school friends? Rebecca : I do, however, have front row seats to my parents' divorce. I'll take pictures. But I like your blender. Ashleigh : Did you get a Big Sis gift for Casey? Rebecca : Yes. I decided I won't kll her for kissing Cappie over Spring Break. Ashleigh : Well, she got you a Little Sis gift. Rebecca : Really? She did? I mean, not that I care. Ashleigh : No matter what's gone on between you two, Casey really does believe in sisterhood. It's a really nice gift, too. KT HOUSE Cappie : Be seated. Look only at the candle or else you fail Judgment Day. Rusty : So, this is heaven. Cappie : This is heaven's lobby. If this were real heaven, there'd be bi-curious Playmates making out in a corner somewhere. Voice of an angel, you. Beaver : Thank you. Cappie : Tell the jury, why do you think you belong in Kappa Tau? Rusty : As you know, I struck down Evan Chambers with a pledge paddle. I defeated the Omega Chis at Beer Pong. I made it rain beer with Vesuvius, and I even got the upstairs toilet to flush after Chili Night, with little to no splatter. All : Guilty! Rusty : Of what? Wade : Of everything! You bat Calvin at Beer Pong not their entire house. Heath : And you know Calvin's hand cramps easily. Wade : And made Vesuvius rain beer? Cappie : Another minute and that Remington Hertzog Atmospheric Destabilizer would have evaporated our blood and rained it on our mummified corpses. Beaver : Wikipedia. Wade : In fact, weren't you initially thinking about being an Omega Chi pledge? You went there and ignored our Bid Night. We were your second choice, remember? Rusty : But I ended up here! All : Eyes on the candle! Rusty : Kappa Tau is where I belong. Cappie : I did all this stuff all year and it's not good enough? "A" for effort, but no, sorry. Wade : I'm afraid this is strike two. Cappie : Last chance, go forth in the world and find a way to demonstrate to us that you are a KT. Rusty : How? Cappie : The true Kappa Tau wouldn't have to ask that. Beaver : And you gotta do it before Initiation Night, or don't bother showing up. Cappie : Tick-tock, Rusty. Tickety-tock. EXT. OMEGA CHI HOUSE Evan : And remember, if anyone asks, this is not hazing. You are simply pruning the rose bushes... with your hands, with no gloves, by choice. Trip : I can't. I need a break. Evan : You will break when I tell you to break, Trip. Calvin : Evan, he looks broken, man. Well, then it's your job to revive him. Evan : Come on, Owens, cool off. I'm gonna go get us some snacks. Trip : How you doing there, Owens? That fan looks heavy. Calvin : Look, man, I didn't make the pledge assignments, what can I do? Trip : But you're Evan's pet Little Bro, talk to him, he's going too far. Calvin : Come on, man, we're almost there, OK? Trip : You're almost there. He's giving you all the easy jobs. The rest of us are dying here. Evan : OK, boys, who's up for mayonnaise pot stickers? CRU – Dale & Rusty’s room Dale : Last load. Nine months of temptation, God, and I proved myself. Rusty : And I have to prove to the Actives why I'm a true Kappa Tau. Dale : Well... you could always show them a biopsy of your decayed liver. Come on, Russ, you'll always be my little frat boy. Rusty : Thanks, Dale. Well, you're off. Dale : Yeah, yeah. Till the fall. hm year, baby. Can't wait. Rusty : I can't wait for this year to be over. Dale : I brned this for you. Darwin Lied cut a new track. Carpool to Salvation. I'll save you a seat. Rusty : You never have a moment of doubt that you're right, or that you are right where you belong, do you? I sometimes wish I had what you have. Dale : I just have faith. I mean, that cross is just two sticks tied together without that. You know, and I... know in my heart that the Big Guy has a plan for all of us. And I happen to know a little bit about his plans for you, too. Rusty : Something that includes Kappa Tau, I hope. Dale : No. But we are gonna be roommates again. He told me. Come here. DOBLER’S Casey : I applied to bartend here over the summer. I haven't heard back. Which is maybe OK, since I plan to spend the summer maximizing my time with... Ashleigh : Max. And then, from there, you'll re-evaluate the relationship's staying power. Casey : Long and prosperous, no doubt. Ashleigh : Isn't that the manager? Why don't you go ask him about the job? Casey : Can't just go up and ask him. That's bad form. I'll call him tomorrow. Ashleigh : While you're out you should buy a gift for Rebec... Casey : Unknown number. Oh, maybe it's the manager. Hello? Of course I'm interested. Totally. Yes, I'll call you tomorrow. Thank you. I just got a job. Ashleigh : No you didn't. I just talked to the manager. They're going with someone else. You have no bartending experience. Casey : Not here. In Washington. Ashleigh : There's a Dobler's in Washington? Casey : Remember Paula Baker? From the convention, former ZBZ and current US Congresswoman? She just offered me a summer internship in DC. Ashleigh : No way! When did you even apply? Casey : I didn't. She just remembered me from the convention. She had a last minute opening, she thought of me and she tracked down my number. Ashleigh : Well, this is awesome! Right? Casey : I'd have to be in DC in two weeks. EXT. CRU Casey : I screwed, I mean, I seriously don't know what to do. I want the internship in DC, it's the career direction I've been waiting for, but I finally found some incredible guy who I might lose. L.C : It's so what happened with Jason going to Paris, remember? Casey : I know, right. So how did you decide, L.C.? L.C : I don't know. I guess I just followed my heart, Case. Which I guess was a mistake or whatever. Casey : Because you and Jason broke up? L.C : But I wouldn't have known he was the wrong choice unless I had spent the summer with him in Malibu. Which you saw in season two. Casey : True. L.C : Also, I could have spent my whole summer in France wondering if I had left behind my one true love. Casey : But he wasn't? L.C : God, no. I totally should have gone to France! Casey : But what if Max is more my future than Washington? What if I suck there? L.C : But, I mean, it's allabout the "what if?" Either way, you're always gonna wonder... what if? That's so deep. Ashleigh : I know, right? Casey : Ash, what're you doing here? Ashleigh : It's fricking L.C.! Casey : I love your hair. How do you get it so shiny and straight? Ashleigh : You never ask me that. L.C : I always go with a ceramic iron. Ah, genius. Casey : So, tell me, L.C., what would you do? L.C : Casey, the answer's crystal clear. ZBZ HOUSE – Ashleigh & Casey’s room Rusty : It's me, it's me. Casey : What are you doing here? Rusty : I need your help. Casey : Good God, what is that smell? Rusty : Desperation? Casey : No... You smell like dog poo. And your breath, it's like the pond at Grandpa's house. Rusty : How did Cappie prove he was a KT during Hell Week? I need to know. Casey : He didn't. If I recall correctly, I think that assignment was just for dorky pledges who were gonna get dung out. I'm so tired... Not the comforter. Rusty : And freaked out. I can't even remember why I wanted to join KT in the first place. Casey : Because you were too good for Omega Chi. Rusty : Not at first, I wasn't. Maybe that's why I'm in so much trouble. I need to rid myself of any last vestiges of Omega Chi. Casey : What are you talking about? Rusty : I knew I could count on you. Casey : Don't even! Get off the... Don't do anything stupid. Rusty : I'm not. I'm doing something Kappa Tau. EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Rebecca : For you. Your Big Sis present. Casey : Rebecca, that's like, the sweetest thing ever. Rebecca : I know. Casey : I love it. Thanks. Becks, listen, things have been so crazy with Max that I forgot to... Ashleigh : Bring this down. You left it upstairs on the dresser. Casey : Exactly what I was about to say. Rebecca : What is it? Casey : Something awesome. Rebecca : Like what? Casey : Don't wanna spoil the surprise. Rebecca : I don't mind. Casey : Just open it, K? Rebecca : Thanks. BAR Cappie : You up for some competition? Casey : You know I rock at pool. Cappie : I know. I learned the hard way. Casey : Subtle. I just came here to figure out what to do about a personal matter. On my own. I didn't expect that you'd be here. Cappie : Handicap? Casey : For who? You? Keep dreaming. Rack 'em. I'll break. Cappie : So, a personal problem, huh? Let me guess. Max... is having an emotional affair with his World of Warcraft teammate, right? Casey : He's going to grad school in the fall in California. Cappie : California, Ohio? Casey : We were going to spend the summer together here and figure out what to do about the fall. But I just got offered a summer internship in DC, I'd have to leave in two weeks. Cappie : Congrats, Case. Casey : I haven't committed yet. I mean, I don't want to leave Max, but this is a US Congresswoman we're talking about here. Paula Baker. Cappie : Paula Baker? Maryland, Fifth District. Soft on energy, but a staunch protector of the Loggerhead sea turtle. I like that. So, Max or a possible career. Long distance. That's a... big commitment for a guy who just started dating. Good sht. Casey : That's it? Cappie : Great sht? I don't know what you want me to say. Casey : As my friend, what do you think I should do? You said it yourself. Max and I just started dating. What if I pass on this awesome opportunity in DC... and he's not the one? Cappie : Fine, as your friend, Case, I... think you should... bank the nine ball. Go for the side pocket. Casey : And? Cappie : And... I think you should... take the internship instead of Max. Casey : Really? So you're suggesting I break up with Max? Cappie : I'm saying that you shouldn't discount the fact that you spent the past year trying to find something to build a future on and... now you may have found it. As for finding the one, I think if it's... meant to be eventually, it will be. Casey : Thanks for the advice, Cap. Eight ball, corner pocket. ZBZ HOUSE - Kitchen Rebecca : Hey, Frannie ! How's your BFF taking doing it national? Frannie : That's in the past. And, I'm here to discuss the future. Rebecca : Do I hear ticking? Frannie : Just open it. Rebecca : Lovely. What's the catch? Frannie : Just hear me out. Casey : That's beautiful, Frannie. Who knew you could give as well as you take? Frannie : This is just my final, end of the year gesture, as Pledge Educator. Rebecca : At least Frannie picked out her own gift. Casey : Rebecca...I wanted to... Rebecca : Later. You were saying? OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Honor room Calvin : Hey Evan... Huh... I just noticed that you made the pledges sleep in the backyard last night, in the mud. Evan : We left you inside for that one, didn't we? Calvin : Don't you think you're being a little hard on them and easy on me? Evan : Look, you're my Little Brother, you're a Legacy, you're entitled to special treatment, so just enjoy it. As much as you are? Calvin : Ever since you signed up for that trust, you seem to just wanna show off what it means to be Evan Chambers. Evan : That's crap. Calvin : Maybe so, but you know, those are my pledge brothers, so... if you're gonna haze them that way, you gotta haze me the same. Fair is fair. Evan : You serious? Calvin : I am. Evan : You're right. It's not fair. So grab the pledge manual and follow me. Calvin : Where we going? Evan : No questions. Move it, pledge. CRU – Max’s room Casey : I have to leave in two weeks. Max : I guess we'll be starting the long distance thing a lot sooner then, huh? You wanna break up. Casey : I want to be in two places at once. You're science-y. Have they made that possible yet? Max : Funny isn't... I'm sorry. What if I... What if I come to DC with you? Casey : Then we'd still have to say good bye at the end of summer. Max : No chance you'd move to California? Casey : I can't keep making decisions based on the guys in my life. I need to stay here for me. I need to take this internship for me. Guess that sounds kinda selfish. Max : I'm the one leaving. Casey : And you have to. It's what's best for you. Max : It's not what's best for us, though. Casey : I'd better go. No regrets? Max : No regrets. OMEGA CHI HOUSE – Honor room Rusty : Checkmate. Evan : All right, let's get those blindfolds on. Rusty ! Rusty : Evan ! This isn't the Kappa Tau house. Evan : Guys! Come on, hurry up! ZBZ HOUSE – Dining room Betsy : What is that? Ashleigh : Who wants more cookies? ZBZ Girls : I do! KT HOUSE Cappie : Where's Rusty? I hope he's not kidnapping a Tri Pi for us. Beaver : We got in a lot of trouble for that last time. Cappie : Yeah, we did. Wade : We can't wait any longer. Initiation has to be tonight. Cappie : When it comes to initiation, even I must abide by the rules. Except for one. Wade : Naked beneath the robe? Cappie : You, too? Heath : I called Rusty's dorm like ten times. No answer. Cappie : Hark! I recognize that girlish scream anywhere. Spitter! EXT. CRU Wade : Come on, let's go! Move! Hurry up! We're on our way, Spitter! Beaver : Take off your blindfolds! Take 'em off! Take 'em off! Ben Bennett : Should we do it? KT Pledge : It's a trick. No one take 'em off. Pickle : He sounds serious. Ben Bennett : You know what? I'm just gonna... I'm gonna double check here. Evan : Wait a minute. You forgot this. Cappie : Come on. Get him outta here. OMEGA CHI HOUSE Evan : This handshake symbolizes our sacred bond. Brotherhood, above all. And finally, a Chapter President must choose one pledge during initiation to carry the final burden for his pledge class, for at least one hour. Calvin Owens has carried the burden for... over three hours. You can lower the book now, Cal. You're a brother. Congratulations, brothers! All right. Now listen up. Report to the backyard, so we can paddle our new initiates. Trip : I'd pick sleeping in mud over holding that book any time. It was amazing. Calvin : I just can't keep my arms down. Evan : Brother Owens. Calvin : Brother Chambers. Nice hazing tactic. Evan : Be careful what you wish for, right? Calvin : I may have been a little harsh with the show off comment. Evan : You said what you need to say to get what you wanted. And I respect that. You and I are not so different. Here, let me help you with that. Calvin : What happened to you guys anyway? Your lip looks pretty bad. Evan : I guess Rusty and I are even. Calvin : What, did you ht him with a paddle or something? Evan : I was protecting the house. Calvin : From Rusty? Evan : Look, he started this and I ended it. Like I said, he and I are even. KT HOUSE – Living room Cappie : Why would you go to the Omega Chi house during Hell Week and incite a brawl? Rusty : I guess I thought it was the only way to prove that I was a Kappa Tau. Cappie : Not that trying to get that paddle back was the coolest thing in the world, but you could have just bought us beer like your pledge bros. Rusty : You called me "Spitter". Cappie : Wouldn't know you by any other name. So no more overcompensating. Rusty : What about all those pledges that didn't get in? Cappie : In the last 50 years there was only one guy who ever left after pledging, and he did it voluntarily. Rusty : So this whole time you and the Actives were screwing with us. Cappie : You should not have locked us out of the house last month. Rusty : That's so messed up. Cappie : Why you won't think that way next year when you're doing it to the new pledges. Come with me. Who wants to get initiated? I will now read from the Kappa Tau-ra. Shalom. KT Guys : Shalom. Beaver : I love that part. Cappie : And the crossed identical arrows symbolize that while we may cross each other, we are all the same under this hallowed roof. Blow the arrows. KT Guys : Blow the arrows. Cappie : Rise. Now, you are a man. L'Chaim! Heath : What is this music? Wade : Bernie went to Israel last summer and insisted we use his mixed CD. Just go with it. Holy crap! Casey : Hey Spitter ! Rusty : Hey ! Aren't you supposed to be at ZBZ's initiation? Casey : On my way. But I wanted to say congrats, first. Rusty : Thanks. Casey : What happened to your... Hell Week gets crazier every year, huh? Rusty : Yeah. It was worth it. I'm a brother now. Casey : And I can attest from personal experience, you are a great one. Rusty : Geez. Casey : What? Everyone gets a little mushy by the end of I-Week. I'll have total deniability by Monday. Go celebrate. Rusty : Thanks, Case. Casey : Remember, you have three more years. Pace yourself. Cappie : Hey ! How is your dilemma? Casey : I'm going to Washington. Cappie : You are? So... good luck. Casey : Thanks. CRU – Max’s room Max : Hi, Dr. Lewiston? Yes, this is Max Tyler from CRU. ZBZ HOUSE Ashleigh : Pledges of Zeta Beta Zeta. As you begin your ascent to sisterhood on the wings of Zetas past, know that those sisters that came before us smile down upon you from Chapter eternal. Before we replace your pledge pins with the holy badges of an initiate... Casey : Frannie ? We're starting initiation. Frannie : Then I'm just in time. For you, Ash. Ashleigh : Your Active pin? Frannie : I'm moving out of the house. Casey : You don't have to deactivate the sorority just to move out. Frannie : I do if I'm moving into another sority house. Casey : What are you doing? You can't join another sorority. Pan-Hellenic doesn't allow that. Frannie : I'm starting my own sorority. In fact, I rented the house today. Casey : You rented a whole house? That's a lot of space for you and your ego. Frannie : That's not gonna be a problem. Let's go, girls. Beth : Bye, Casey. Bye, Ashleigh. Bye, you guys. Ashleigh : No, don't go. As your president, I command you to stop! Casey : Brenda, you're leaving ZBZ? For what? To pledge all over again? Breanda : Who says I'm pledging? And yes. Frannie : Becks ! Shall we? Casey : Rebecca ? Ashleigh : Rebecca ?	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x10 - Hell Week"}	foreverdreaming
HOLIDAY CAMP Rusty : I had so much fun with you guys this year. You were the nicest group of campers I've ever met. I'll see you next summer. OK, Pine Saplings. It's time to go home. Grow into big strong trees. Kid 1 : I'm gonna put it in your nose. Rusty : Dylan, not again! Put the pebble down. You OK? Kid 2 : Yeah. Thanks, Rusty. Man : Good save, Cartwright. Rusty : I guess you could say when it comes to little boys I have the touch. That's not what I meant. Man : Last day, son. Keep it together. All right, Pine Saplings gather round, gather round. Little Pine Saplings, take a seat. Rusty : Dylan, sit. Man : You boys may be leaving today, but remember this: Camp Tiny Pine is not just a place, but a feeling. A feeling that takes roo in your heart. So wear your evergreen friendship necklaces close to the trunk to remind you of the special time that you had here. Rusty : Now go out there and proudly spread your seed. I'm really not sure what's wrong with me today, sir. Not funny. WASHIGTON D.C – Casey office Woman : Casey, the door. Casey : Wait. I have to... Hold on. Sorry. What? Max : Do I need to do something? Casey : No, I have a code. I've never been so happy to see someone in my entire life. Max : Let's hope that lasts the whole 11 hour car trip back to Cyprus. And that's 11 hours not including gas, food, bathrooms... Casey : It could be 11 years. Max : So, you ready to start a whole new year together? Casey : Am I a horrible person for being partly glad your Caltech grant money fell through and you're stuck at Cyprus with me? Max : I could never describe you as horrible. Casey : Even though that part that's glad is way, way bigger than the other sad for you part? Max : I forgive you. Casey : All that stuff I told you bout the summer, let's just keep it between us, OK? I don't want anyone else to know. Not even Ashleigh. Max : Your secret’s safe with me. Credits EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Casey : Here we are. Max : You gonna get out? Casey : Totally. Max : You having second thoughts? Casey : Change is good. It's just... The thought of disappointing Ashleigh kind of scares the crap out of me. Ashleigh : You're back, you're back! Casey : Seatbelts! Ashleigh : OK, Casey and I hav a lot of catching up to do, so you can just d your manly unpacking thing. Casey : I missed you so much! OK, OK, so tell me Did you? Ashleigh : It took 44 summer campus tours. But I did it. I am no longer Credit Plus' bitch. OK, I want to hear all about Washington because months of emails aren't good enough. But before that we hav two major house things to discuss. First, OK, I changed the rush balloons from pink and white to all gold. Casey : What the hell? Ashleigh : You're right. I knew it. The bling-bling thing is totally played out. This is a sorority, not a Beyonce video. Casey : Why is Rebecca getting out of Frannie's car? Frannie : Welcome back, Case! You look tired. Long drive? Casey : Rebecca, what's going on? Rebecca : We couldn't find parking in front of our house. Ashleigh : That was the second major thing. Rebecca called last night and she's defecting to the Iota Kappa Iota house. Casey : "Icky?" Frannie : Iota Kappa Iota. Or the I-Kaps. Ashleigh : Or the "Ickies." Casey : Rebecca, you chose us. We initiated you last semester. Rebecca : And I changed my mind. See you, girls, around Greek Row. Ashleigh : Forget about stupid old Rebecca. With the Dynamic Duo on the job ZBZ will be unstoppable. KT HOUSE - Party Cappie : Summer! Hey Sppiter ! You promised to wear your Speedo. Rusty : I just want to show these guys my new room. I finished the redesign. Hey, new guy. Calvin : This is my boy, Andy. He and I used to play high school football. Andy : I'm a freshman. Calvin : And the Titans' number one high school recruit. But before you get any ideas, so he'll be pledging Omega... Cappie : Don't say it. You know how I feel about the "C" word. Popsicle? Andy : What flavor is this? Beaver : Beer. Freshmen. Cappie : You three have a fantastic time and remember, here at Kappa Tau, summer isn't officially over until the fat professor hands out the syllabus. ht the water slide. Come on, guys. Andy : They're exactly like you described them. You even called the water slide. Calvin : Yeah, the KT's are nothing if not obvious. Rusty : These are my brothers you're talking about. Calvin : You're crazy if you think you can get any work done here. Sure that pledge paddle last spring didn't leave any lasting brain damage? I still can't believe that happened. Rusty : I'm in a really good mood right now and I don't want to talk about Evan. Pretty much ever again. Calvin : So how are you gonna get work done living here? Rusty : Just wait till you see the oasis. Calvin : This is nice, Rus. Cappie : Let the belching contest begin! Andy : It's almost freakishly quiet. Rusty : Acoustic foam panels in the walls and the ceiling. Calvin : Come on. I might even come here to study. Rusty : See? I can have it all. Full time honors engineer... full time Kappa Tau brother! Full time honors engineer. Full time Kappa Tau brother! Engineer, brother, engineer... ZBZ HOUSE – MEETING ROOM Ashleigh : OK, first on the agenda should be rush, but as we all know, we have a little situation to deal with. Since some of our officers have... chosen a different path, we need to fill the following positions: Standards Chair. Casey : I nominate Ivy. She has such a strong moral center. Ashleigh : Done. But as for the all-important Rush Chair, Case... Casey : Oh Laura ! Laura : Really? Ashleigh : Rush Chair is really important this year, since we need twice the number of pledges to fill the house, thanks to Frannie. So I think we need someone with experience and someone I like. Casey : Laura for sure. Yeah, she can be abrasive... Laura : You realize I'm right here? Casey :... but it's all in good fun and she is definitely experienced, not to mention crazy organized. Have you seen her closet? All the hangers are two finger spaces apart. Laura : Two and a half. And I accept. Ashleigh : What? I didn't even... Laura : OK. So, Rush... Here's what I'm thinking. Let's cut down on decorations. We'll tell everybody... IKI HOUSE – LIVING ROOM IKI Girl 1 : Wow Frannie !! I can't believe you found a vacant house on Greek Row. IKI Girl 2 : This place is just so much awesomer than the ZBZ house. Frannie : It's a work in progress. IKI Girl 1 : And look. A ghost! Joan : Hello, gals. Frannie : Sisters, meet Joan, our landlady. She lives all the way upstairs and keeps to herself... mostly. Although we've agreed as a condition of the lease that Joan can, very occasionally and after giving notice, mingle with us. Very occasionally. Joan : I was a Tri Pi myself, you know. Back in the day. I will never forget the Sputnik mixer with Lambda Sig. I let Eddie Bailey put his hand right here... Frannie : That's wonderful, Joan. Why don't you go upstairs and make yourself another round of gimlets? Don't worry about her, girls, OK. Not even that old tramp is gonna stop Iota Kappa Iota from being the very best house on campus. I guarantee it. ET. CRU - APPARTMENT Woman : As tenants of our model apartment, you would be required to keep the unit neat and presentable for tours. But you two look tidy. Casey : It's only me. He's here for moral support. Moral support. Woman : I don't know about living in a model apartment, though. This is all I have left. Off-campus housing close to CRU usually books by spring. In exchange you'll pay reduced rent. Casey : Sounds like a good deal. Woman : I'll give you a chance to look around. Max : Thank you. Casey : OK. Max : You sure this is what you want? Casey : If there's one thing I learned last summer, but I have to make my senior year count. Max : You can't do that in a sority? Casey : Last year, two girls nearly came to blows over whether Cameron Diaz looks better blonde or brunette. And yes, those two girls were Ashleigh and me. Max : We had a similar situation in the dorm. Not Cameron Diaz, but a pretty heated scuffle over the elastic properties of Mr. Fantastic versus Plastic Man. Yes, it was between me and Rusty. Sorry, this is not about me. This is about you and your dilemma. Casey : Which is about to be solved. Come on. KT HOUSE – Rusty’s room Rusty : What are you guys doing? What are you guys doing? Cappie : Basic rule on a construction site: never startle a man with a power tool. Rusty : It's a construction site? Beaver : We are constructing a loft. Rusty : It's 3:00 in the morning. Cappie : The boys and I just finished our nightly... morningly, 1:00 a.m. power naps. Beaver : Morningly. Cappie : Morningly. So we're using our time constructively to turn this room into a quad. Rusty : Quad? Cappie, you cannot tur my oasis into a quad. Cappie : Where the hell are Ben Bennett, Pickle and Arrowhead supposed to sleep,the shed? They're not animals, Spitter. Now where's my stud finder? Stud finder, please. You found me. I'm a stud. Seriously, I need a stud finder. EXT. CRU Rusty : Morning, Dale. Dale : You're lucky I got here when I did. I had to fight off some surly civil engineer to get this spot. I told him to build a bridge and get over it. Rusty : I can't believe engineers camp out to get their textbooks early. Dale : hm* year's most competitive. You've got core requirements, organic chem. About a third of the class usually drops out. You look terrible, by the way. I mean really bad. Rusty : My Kappa Tau oasis turned back into a very loud desert. But you know, I have to learn to adapt to their unique schedule if I want to have the full experience. Dale : I guess. Why are you eating a corn dog? Rusty : It's breakfast on a stick. It's sausage and cheese wrapped in a chocolate chip pancake with maple dipping sauce. Part of the KT meal plan. Dale : You better get your act together before classes start. You can't count on me to carry you again. I might need to lean on you this year a little too. Rusty : Is that right? Dale : It is right. I'm not gonna get any help from my new roommate, Peter. He's ghostly pale, got this weird, implacable accent. He speaks English but he's not American, you know. He's unnervingly polite. He wrote me a thank you note yesterday for making my own bed. Who does that? CRU - Dorms Frannie : Room 314, Megan Song. Mainline Philly, voted Most Photogenic, enior year. egan ? Frannie Morgan and this is Rebecca Logan. Rebecca : We're here to welcome you to CRU. Megan : Thanks. Are you guys my RA's or something? Frannie : You are so cute. We're with the brand new Iota Kappa Iota sorority, and we're here to invite you to our ultra-exclusive, top-secret, pre-rush lake party with the Omega Chis. The hottest guys on campus. Megan : Cool! But wait. I thought we weren't allowed to talk to you except during rush. Can't you get in big trouble with Pan-Hellenic for dirty rushing? Frannie : That would be if we were an ordinary sority. Rebecca : Iota Kappa Iota isn't affiliated with Pan-Hellenic, so we don't have to abide by their rules. Megan : But if you're not Pan-Hellenic, then how do you do all the fun stuff like Greek Week? Frannie : Not to worry. The moment rush is over, we'll petion Pan-Hellenic for membership. Rebecca : Besides, consider how unfair it is that sororities can't have co-ed parties and alcohol like fraternities can. It's so patronizing and sexist, right? Frannie : We won't have that problem. We're local. No nationals to worry about. We can have all the fun of a fraternity but without the mess. Megan : Sounds awesome. Frannie : I know, right? See you at the lake. Megan : Thanks. Frannie : Great. The whole women's lib crap. I'm happy to see you've come to your senses. Rebecca : Me, too. KT HOUSE - Dorms Casey : Thought you were getting a single. Rusty : Case, you're back. Casey : Believe it or not, I'm really excited to see you. Rusty : I missed you. Casey : Aren't we cute. Mom sent a package... with homemade snickerdoodles. Rusty : Why does she even try? So, tell me. How was Washington? Casey : It was incredible. So much fun. Learned a lot. Rusty : Are you aware that is how you used to describ going to church? Casey : It was incredible. I guess it left me feeling like what I really need right now is to expand my horizons. Not go back to the same old sorority business. Rusty : Wait a minute. You're seriously down on ZBZ right now? Casey : I can't be the ultimate sorority girl forever. That's not real life. You'll know when you're a senior. Rusty : Nothing will stop me from being a dedicated Kappa Tau brother. KT HOUSE - Downstairs Casey : Hey Cap ! Cappie : Hey Case ! How was the internship? Casey : It was incredible. So much fun. Learned a lot. See you around. Cappie : What's with her? Sunburn? D.C. tourist overload? Stalked by the engineered ex? Rusty : Ex? No, they're still going out. Max was gonna go to Caltech, but he lost his grant so he's gonna go to grad school here instead. Cappie : Incredible. So much fun. Ben Bennett : Pep log. Think fast. Wade got a whole case for ten bucks. Going out of business at the Meat Hut this summer. Rusty : Does pepperoni expire? Ben Bennett : We hope not. That's what we're banking on. Cappie : KT brothers don't ask, they eat. Now chow down. It's almost 2:00. What's at 2:00? Afternoon nap. Rusty : I didn't know you guys took so many naps. Cappie : Haven't you ever noticed how... quiet the house is at certain times of the day? Rusty : I figured you're all in class. Cappie : What? No, but yes, we nap. Napping is essential for healthy brain development. Rusty : Isn't that for more, like, babies? Cappie : Exactly. Beaver ht his 14 month developmental milestones. Beaver : I can drink from a straw. Rusty : Doesn't all that napping make it hard to sleep through the night? How do you get up for classes? Cappie : Morning classes? You are on fre today, Spitzafrenic. ZBZ HOUSE – Casey & Ashleigh’s room Ashleigh : I just heard the most horrible rumor in the history of rumors. Casey : That sounds bad. Ashleigh : The "Ickies" are having a pre-rush recruitment party at Canyon Lake this weekend with the Omega Chis. Casey : She can't dirty rush like that. At least not so blatantly. Ashleigh : Technically, it's not considered dirty rushing. Until they're in Pan-Hellenic she's allowed to do it. Casey : That's so not fair. Ashleigh : Good. I'm really gonna need your help. Now we can use your new D.C. style scheming. Casey : Right. Let me think about it. Ashleigh : How come you haven't unpacked yet? Casey : Just busy. I guess. Ashleigh : And why didn't you want to be Rush Chair? There's something you're not telling me, isn't there? Casey : Ash, I'm moving out of the ZBZ house. I found an apartment and I... I signed the lease today. Ashleigh : Why didn't you tell me? Casey : I was afraid I'd change my mind. Ashleigh : You should change your mind. Casey : I love living with you. I can't imagine not being here. And maybe that's a problem. I just feel like... I want to try having some distance from the house for a little while. I got so wrapped up in it last year. I need to be somewhere without so many distractions so I can focus. If I want a career in politics, I need to get serious. I'm sorry, Ash. KT HOUSE - Garden Cappie : What's this? Rusty : A few modifications to the Kappa Tau lifestyle schedule. I know, change is scary, but this schedule will help all the brothers achieve the full Kappa Tau experience at an enhanced comfort level. Cappie : Eliminate the 1:00 a. M. Nap? Vegetables? Good luck getting anyone to sign up. Rusty : I'm just worried about my... Our health. And our course load. Cappie : You're the only Kappa Tau who has a course load. Rusty : Cappie, I want to live like a real Kappa Tau brother, but I wasn't expecting to live in a quad. And don't you find the diet of the smoked meats constipating? Cappie : Really, I don't, but I learned a little bit more about you and I sympathize. Rusty : Maybe we can... Cappie : Listen, Spitter, I'm sorry, pal, but naps and meats, they gotta stay. But it just so happens there's one single left. OC HOUSE – LIVING ROOM Calvin : Evan, I don't think you met my friend, Andy. Evan : No introduction necessary. I know who this guy is. Mr. 4.0, valedictorian, runs a four-three-40. I'm Evan Chambers. I'm the president. O'Toole, grab this guy a beer. You got it. Andy : No water slide? Calvin : No, man, that's the KT's. Evan : You want to have a seat? What were you doing at the KT house? Calvin : I was there to see Rusty, and before you start I told you, back off him. Evan : And I told you I got a little carried away. I know it may sound like a rich kid sob story, but my family stuff kinda got to me last year. Calvin : And now it doesn't? Evan : I'm back. I'm ready to focus on rush. Everybody really wants this Andy guy. The Lambda Sigs won't rest until they get the number one football recruit{in their house}. Bring him here. Calvin : Don't worry about it. He didn't play ball with the Lambda Sig. Trust me, he's far too ambitious for the Kappa Taus. It's as good as done. Evan : All right. Calvin : One more thing. If you mess with Rusty again I will have to kick your ass. Rich kid sob story or not. Evan : Peace. EXT. CRU Cappie : Would you like to play? 'Cause you look.like you'd like to play Casey : I'm fine. Thanks. Cappie : You need to get that out of that... There you go. Casey : Now I've lost my place. Cappie : You don't need a place. Classes don't start for a week. That's seven days of sleeping, eating, drinking beer, watching the entire series of Full House on DVD. Casey : That's all you did this summer? Cappie : Of course not. I also watched Jon and Kate Plus 8. It's amazing how they make it all work. Casey : You realize we're graduating this year? Cappie : You speak for yourself. Casey : Even you have to grow up eventually. Cappie : Agreed, but there are several developmental stages between infancy and old age. There's no reason to turn yourself into a grandma before you have to. What are you worrying about? You finished the world's most incredible fun internship, right? It sucked, didn't it? I knew it as soon as I saw you. Casey : It sucked. But now I know what real life demands. I need to buckle down and get serious. And that means I don't get to play this year. Cappie : Let me get this straight. You make yourself miserable now, hoping to be better prepared for the misery to come later? Casey : That's not what I meant. Cappie : You know you're gonna end up dad someday. Casey : Thanks, now I feel so much better. Cappie : You should. You're going to die, no matter what. Hence the phrase, "Life is short, so make the most of it." Guess what? College is short too. And so is senior year. Soon we'll be graduating/dad, so... play hacky sack while the sun shines. Casey : That's actually strangely profound. Cappie : I know. Right? Casey : Can I ask you a favor? Cappie : A favor you say? I thought Max was on favor duty. I heard you guys got back together. Casey : The only bright spot of my summer. But this favor is more you. It falls under the "play hacky sack while the sun shines" category. Cappie : Excellent. ht me. KT HOUSE - Shed Rusty : Beaver, this isn't the bathroom. That's not Beaver. Possum! You stay away! This is supposed to be a single. Go away! Dale : You sleep in a shed? Rusty : Crap. What time is it? Dale : It's 11:00 a.m. You can thank me later. for waking you up. I've got bigger problems. Like this. My roommate is canadian. How am I supposed to sleep at night with some foreigner. Waving his alien flag in what's obviously an act of anti-american aggression? Rusty : You put up the flag when... Dale : Do this for me. Don't think about it, do it. Say this word. A-b-u-o-t." Rusty : Aboot." Dale : He got to you too. Rusty : You just misspelled the word "About." Dale : All right, I'm sorry. I thought I lost you there. Listen, until I can get this mountie-loving, moose-smelling hockey fan deported, can I bunk here with you for a little bit? I'd prefer to sleep on the left side with two pillows. Rusty : I may not be bunking here much longer myself. There are possums living in the shed. Dale : I thought I smelled the dung of a mid-sized marsupial. Rusty : But if I don't live in the house, I may miss out on a huge chunk of the kappa tau experience. I won't even feel like a real brother. Dale : Why? You moved off the honors engineering floor. You're still an honors engineer. Rusty : If I keep sleeping until 11:00, I won't be for long. CRU - Lake Frannie : Welcome, ladies. You should know you are part of an exclusive group of young women who embody what we're looking for in our brand new sisterhood. A sisterhood that will enjoy all manner of greek fun, some not even possible at a traditional sority. Ashleigh : This was a brilliant idea, Case. And not just 'cause it gave me an excuse to wear my camo booty shorts. Maybe, you could live in that stupid apartment. And keep a room at the house... Casey : Ash. Ashleigh : I know, but I'll take your scheming brain whenever I can get it. Casey : Red eagle, are you in position? Cappie : Roger that, heaving bosom. Casey : I never should have let him pick my code name. Frannie : Mixers are a highlight of sority life. And if I'm not mistaken, you're about to see a preview of just the type of guys we will be mixing with. Ladies, may I present the creme de la crème of cyprus-rhodes men. Wait. These are not the guys I meant. There's been a mistake! Beaver : Free beer! Rebecca : What are you doing here, cap? Cappie : What are you doing here? Frannie : I'm so sorry! Casey : Madame president, I believe our party awaits. Frannie : Evan, you better be dad or in captivity. Evan : Thanks for your concern. I'm sorry. Frannie : I'm trying to be sensitive, but this is ridiculous. Evan : We're lost. This party bus driver's a complete moron. I'm sorry. Frannie : Not half as sorry as I... Beaver ! Put that freshie down right now! EXT. ZBZ HOUSE Girl : Hey, there. Ashleigh : I'm Ashleigh, president of Zeta Beta Zeta. Casey : And I'm Casey. Unfortunately, pan-hellenic rules preclude us from talking to you now, because we're a real sority, but we can't wait to meet you all during rush next week. Girl : We'll definitely be there. Laure : I'm so glad you're my sister. Ashleigh : OK, they're gone. You can let go. Frannie : You are playing with fre. Casey : We know. Rebecca : That's how we make s'mores. Let them eat their s'mores, frannie. We'll crush them during rush. Casey : I misjudged you, rebecca. I never thought you'd be clueless enough to go with frannie. Rebecca : You were clueless enough to think I gave a crap about ZBZ in the first place. Frannie : Couldn't have said it better myself. Casey : I can't believe I felt sorry for you because of your dad screwing over your family. Now you've done the same thing to us. Ashleigh : Let's not make this personal. Frannie : Come on, let's go. Ashleigh : You know, just forget about them. The important thing is, the awesome twosome pulled it off. Casey : The awesome twosome is pretty awesome. Ashleigh : And you're breaking it up. Casey : Ash, I want to tell you the real reason I'm moving out. Remember how I said my internship was so amazing? Like, I got to research a bill? Ashleigh : It was amazing. I was so impressed. Casey : It was a starbucks bill. My boss got overcharged for his latte. Ashleigh : That still sounds math-y. Casey : My internship was a complete failure. The other interns came armed with years of knowledge. I came armed with subtle highlights and the ability to make up a cheesy skit about almost anything. And worst of all, they called me Elle Woods. All the other interns thought I was some stupid sorority girl. And nothing I did proved them wrong. Ashleigh : So, they underestimated you. But think about it. Elle woods was the only one in that courtroom who knew you can't wash out the ammonium thioglycolate in a perm for 24 hours. It helped her catch a mrder. Casey : I know. Ashleigh : But maybe there's a way that we can find you your space to focus right there in the house? I'm tall but I can make myself really, really small. Casey : And cute. EXT. CRU Calvin : My butt fell asleep. Evan : Come on. Let's go find this party. Andy : I'll catch up. I left my sweatshirt on the bus. Cappie : Nice work, Jeremy. Evan : They're hijacking our bus. Rusty : Hurry up, guys, hurry up! Calvin : Has anyone seen Andy? CRU - BUS Cappie : Proving once again that crime does pay. And having a brother with a class C commercial drivers license. Thank you, Jeremy. Ben Bennett : The Omega chis can suck it! Cappie : They can and they will, Ben Bennett. Rusty : I just had an epiphany. Beaver : Man, did it get on the seat? Rusty : Kappa Tau house is just like camp tiny pine. Not because of all the flies. Because Kappa Tau is not a place. It's a feeling. It's a feeling that's taken root in my heart, even if I never eat another pepperoni log. I'll be a Kappa Tau no matter where I live. No matter where I spread my seed. Nap time. I'm moving out of Kappa Tau, cap. Cappie : Congratulations, spitter. Where are you gonna spread your seed? You got another place lined up? Rusty : I hadn't thought that through. CRU – MAX’S ROOM Rusty : It's good to be back in good old calhoun hall. Max : It's good to have you back. Rusty : You really don't mind being here instead of caltech? Max : Nope. Rusty : I don't get it. You had the grant and then caltech changed their minds? Max : Caltech didn't change their mind. I did. Rusty : You changed their mind? Max : I changed my mind. About going. I turned down the grant so I could stay at cru with Casey. She doesn't know. You can't tell her. I don't want her to feel some... kind of obligation. Rusty : You're really not gonna tell her? Casey : A slumber party involving my brother, my boyfriend and... Dale : Casey ! Hey ! Casey : How disturbing. Max : Rusty and Dale are having some... roommate trouble. Casey : I met a guy down the hall who was looking for a new roommate. Canadian guy. He was so nice. Dale : This canuck is relentless. Did you tell him I was in here? Casey : No. Dale : You're a good girl. Max : Let's go to the new apartment. I don't know when I'm gonna be able to get these guys out. Casey : About the new place, I've been reconsidering it. Max : What? CRU - APPARTEMENT Owner : Welcome to titan tower apartments. Casey : Thanks. Owner : I'll admit I was taken aback when you added two gentlemen roommates. But these two look responsible, not to mention charming. I should go. You know where to find me if you need... anything. Anything at all. Dale : Cougars love me. Not that I have a problem with older women. Casey : Listen guys, my name is on this lease. Sheila thinks I live here and even though I don't, I'm responsible. Think of me as your second landlord. Dale : I'm totally cool with that. I have no problem being your submissive. Being... being submissive. To you. Rusty : I'm happy to have somewhere to live. Dale : I told you we'd be roomies again. OC HOUSE – Living room Calvin : I'm not worried. He'll show. Let's go. Andy : Sorry I'm late. I just woke up from a nap. Evan : No worries, man. We thought maybe those Kappa Taus were holding you hostage. Andy : They were cool. And your boy Rusty made a pretty inspiring speech on the bus. I kinda cried. Evan : Excuse me one second. Evan : I never found you at the lake. You finally came by to make sure I was alive? Frannie : I knew you were alive. Evan : I was thinking I could make it up to you. Take you out for a nice dinner. Frannie : You really want to make it up to me? Evan : Of course. Frannie : I hate to ask this, but... I need a rent check. For the house? Evan : Of course. CRU - BATHROOMS Casey : Show me the filthy remark about Frannie and then let's get out of here. I hate north campus. Ashleigh : Which stall is it again? Rebecca, You could have chosen the handicapped stall! Rebecca : Keep it down. This is a secret meeting. Casey : Why is this traitors' turnskirt here? Ashleigh : Rebecca's not a traitors'turnskirt. Not for the reasons that you think. She didn't deactivate ZBZ. Rebecca : I'm a mole at Frannie's house. Ashleigh : Rush spy! She's gonna help us, Case. She's the one who told us about Frannie's top secret lake party. Rebecca and I talked over the summer and I wanted to tell you, but you know what a gossip I am. I can't keep shameful secrets about myself. I even told you about my crush on dean bowman. And now I've just told Rebecca. See? Seeing you guys go all Hasselbeck and O'Donnell on each other at the lake, I realized I had to come clean or things would split screen. We are all still sisters. Casey : You expect me to trust her? Rebecca : I'm trusting you and you kissed my boyfriend. Casey : You broke up with him and you slept with my boyfriend last rush week. Rebecca : At least I didn't know he was your boyfriend. Ashleigh : Ladies, please. Can we at least, for my sake, try and be "frenemies?" ZBZ HOUSE – CASEY & ASHLEIGH’S ROOM Ashleigh : And with this pink tnk top, I hereby declare you, Casey Cartwright, officially moved back into ZBZ. Now complete with... focus space! See, you can live in the house and still be serious. Casey : Thanks, Ash. No more keeping secrets. And no more crazy surprises, like Rebecca in a bathroom. I still think you can't trust her. Ashleigh : If you're worried about Rebecca maybe you need a bigger role. Like becoming my new rush chair? Casey : You made laura rush chair. Ashleigh : I can dismiss her on grounds of incompetence. Did you see her at the lake? If that is the best she can do faking sisterly love, she'll never make it through rush week. Casey : Rush chair, that's a big one. Ashleigh : I know. Casey : It sounds so... fun. No need to turn myself into grandma before I absolutely have to. So... Before all the warm fuzzies go away, the warm fuzzies go away, I have one last thing to confess. Ashleigh : What? Casey : In exchange for ruing Frannie's party I promised our first three mixers to the Kappa Taus. Don't fre me! Ashleigh : You're lucky you're my best friend. Casey : I am.	{"type": "series", "show": "Greek", "episode": "02x11 - Take Me Home, Cyprus-Rhodes"}	foreverdreaming
KT HOUSE [First we see the garden, littered with empty cans, and then inside the house where lots of people sleep everywhere. Ground, Rusty is lying on his back, one arm around deJordan. He wakes up and tries to get away without waking her, but she opens her eyes and stretches.] Jordan : You know it is kind of weird to watch people when they sleep. Rusty : Sorry. Jordan : [pointing the finger at someone outside the framework] No ... Nah I was talking to him. [Rusty looks at the person she was showing.] Rusty : Jeremy back to sleep! [Jeremy looks around and then down from the chair.] Jordan : Is this going? Rusty : What? Yes. Jordan : You still think of Jordan Casey and Max? You really think Cappie is why they broke up? Rusty : It's what Max said. Jordan : So what, Cappie and Casey are together now? It feels weird. [She takes his hand.] Jordan : Let's do something fun today, you and I! We could ... Go to CanyonLake. Rusty : It looks to be Oh shit! Jordan : a little miffed It was just an idea. Rusty : Nah, I just need to finish my TP in organic chemistry today. Jordan : will tell you nothing it because you left last night? Rusty : Nan, Hastings went before me. It is only necessary that I show him my results tomorrow morning. So it is better that I go back to the lab to finish my work. Jordan : Okay, good luck then. Call me. Rusty : Promised. [Rusty kisses, smiles, then gets up. It stretches and tries to leave but stops against someone.] Boy : (voice) You've just walk on by hand. Girl : (voice) Watch out moron. ZBZ HOUSE [Ashleigh walking down the hall and think Casey comes out of their room, a towel in his hand.] Ashleigh : Hi! Casey : Hi. [Surprised] Uh, what are you doing here, why are not you at Fisher? Ashleigh : I'm returned earlier to see how you were doing. Casey : [seeming uncomfortable] Oh, uh, thank you Ashleigh. Ashleigh : showing the towel You take a shower? Casey : seeking what to say ... uh Eehhhhh You wanna come with me? Ashleigh : Why what's in our room? There's someone inside? Casey : wanted him block the passage Nan ... [Ashleigh opens the door, and we see Casey's bed, covered with handkerchiefs, packet of crisps, cake, and a dirty bowl.] Ashleigh : Casey closed his eyes ... Casey : Okay, am a little j'me released last night. [Ashleigh approached the bed of Casey and shows a stain on the pillow near a used tissue.] Ashleigh : That's the sauce? Casey : I may ... down the pot with a bag of tortilla and ate cookies. But it was light cookies, so ... [The guiltily] I devoured the box. I also watched "Sleepless in Seattle" two times, and the first half of "Stepmom" but today I'm fine. Ashleigh : So you've done your mourning for Max? No regrets? Casey : I'm still sad about Max, [gesturing with his arms] but today is another day! I do not want to hear about this story, I do not want to cry, I do not want to feel sorry, I even decided to be positive on Cappie! I could stay, and I continue to languish on the fact that her teeth have snubbed me, but who knows. Maybe when he learns that Max and I broke uh ... Ashleigh : [interrupting him] Oooh! Uh ... I told him. Casey : Say what to whom, what ... What? Ashleigh : Last night when you're gone I found Cappie on the roof and I told him that Max and you've broken. You Casey ... Oh, you told him? And uh ... And? Ashleigh : It was super dramatic. There was the countdown to the end of the world, and everyone shouted "Eight! September! Six ... " Casey : And then ?! I mean ... He did what? Ashleigh : Netherlands has ... Reflected. Long time. Casey : eyes wide open, fixed on Ashleigh. Ashleigh : In fact I sat with him 5 minutes before I go then ... It doitsurement further reflection. [Casey purses his lips and nods.] Ben : Casey if, if, Cappie wants to give us another chance, he knows where I live so he can visit me here or call me, [shaking his arms around her] and in the meantime I'll just uh , do lots of other things and uh ... [She turns and looks at Ashleigh, shaking his head, unconvinced.] Ashleigh : Yeah! [Casey takes his towel and toiletries, then at the last minute grabs his laptop and showed it to Ashleigh.] Casey : Just in case! [The door opens and Betsy enters the room, holding a kitten, followed by all other sisters.] Zeta Beta Zeta sisters : She had the heart to joy, but now it's over. Our sister kitten is gloomy * [making sad pouts] * We want to make you laugh. * [Ashleigh leans Casey while their sisters continue to sing.] Ashleigh : I did not know if you wanted to know the sisters, but ... Casey : It's not as if it was the end of the world. EXT. CRU [Rusty during his backpack, and go upstairs 4-4. They arrive at the doors of the building, but when it tries to open are closed. He insists, then stops and makes a face, forming a mist on the glass.] Credits ZBZ HOUSE [In the dining room, Casey is used for breakfast.] Laura : Casey I'm sorry you've broken up with Max, but you bear much better without him. After all it was a ... Casey : Thanks, Laura! Laura : nerd ... but What was downright barrel. It was downright confusing! Casey : Thank you... Uh, yes it is comforting. [She sits at the table and Betsy arrived with a tray in his hands.] Betsy : Pick your wapon girls! Ashleigh is going to attck the house of Iki? [Casey gets up hurriedly.] Casey : Hear me, so last night, the circle of Iki was dissolved. Zeta Beta Zeta sisters : Ooohhh! Casey : last night, Franny left the Greek system, but ... [The sisters welcome.] Casey : ... despite the bad things she did, she was really someone ... Ashleigh : [cutting off] So the wapon are for? [Casey sits down, watching Betsy.] Betsy : [giving a sheet Ashleigh] That's "Gotcha", the assassin of OmegaChi game that begins today. [Tilting the tray of envelopes to Casey] Here are your folders! Ashleigh : [reading the paper] The goal is to eliminate your designated target. If you do, you take his target, and the game continues until there was only one player. Betsy : And the winner will receive a night at Dobbler in his honor, while his club will receive $ 500 and 5 points for the blue ribbon Greek. Ashleigh : Play begins tonight at the party "You're dad" organized by the Chi Omega. Betsy : Come dressed as assassin or spy. [Opening his eyes lit up as an idea] I chose, Ethel Rosenberg! Ashleigh : [laughing] Okay. [Sitting in front of Casey] So you go tonight? Casey : Uh ... Maybe I'll stay here. [Looking at his target] I've had a Gamma Psi. Ashleigh : That's not true. Casey : You got that? Ashleigh : [pointing to her map where you see a picture of Cappie] do you think? Casey : Oh. Ashleigh : Yes. Want to trade? Casey : [shaking head] Cappie has only come to me ... [Ashleigh hands him the envelope and it ends up taking.] Casey : Or I can simply take him down tonight. [Rebecca arrives in pajamas, disheveled and tired. She sits down at their table] Rebecca : Quick, water Ashleigh : Wow, someone had fun last night it seems. Casey : It seems especially she drank lots of vodka. Rebecca : [using a glass of water] J'me'm not that much fun. Laura : Actually I saw Rebecca being really fun last night. With a boy. Rebecca : [hastily covered his head] Nah, it's true! Casey : What! With whom? Laura : Fairly difficult to say because his face was in his mouth. [Casey and Ashleigh laugh.] Ashleigh : Rebecca who is this mysterious man? [Rebecca drinks her glass of water, a look of despair, then gets up.] Rebecca : is absolutely no way that I tell you. [Rebecca hand and hear a tone.] Casey : This is my phone? It's that ringing? RUSTY AND DALE'S APPARTMENT [The radio is on, we see Calvin, in his underwear, slumped and asleep on the couch.] Radio (voice over) ... took him out of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Calvin : [in a gasp] My god. Dale : [Going into the show] In fact it is Q in "Star Trek". Since I was little I guess Calvin : [putting himself in a sitting position] I never felt so bad ... any ... my life! What happened last night? Dale : Do not you remember the party? To have your friend flirts with Grant. Your not kept your promise of purity. Calvin : Oh no, Grant and I kissed it was ... If anyone saw the circle we're done. It would not be known qu'ça! In addition to how he will react by learning that you have two gays in the house? [Putting his pants] After a while it's okay, it's 2 limit "gay pride". Dale : And you did nothing else? Calvin : [buttoning his pants] Nan. [Looking up] Wait a second. In fact I kissed Grant when I saw you and Sheila you accelerate the movement! What is this story? Dale : I have féromones really powerful. I said I had a stomach ache to get out. Calvin : [going to the kitchen] At least every 2, we have kept our promise. Dale : Yes. It's the pants that? [Grant leaves the room, also in my underwear.] Grant : I think this is the ... mine. DORMITORY CYPRUS RHODES [Rusty is in front of Max's room.] Student : Hello, you're up early for a Sunday morning. Looking for Max is that it? Rusty : Yes, this is one of my friends. J'voulais see if he could get me into the chemistry building to finish my work. You saw him? Student : He started studying. Rusty : Do you know when he returns? Student : He resigned . Rusty : Resigned from what? Residents of the home you mean? Student : He was forced student since he stopped his third cycle. Rusty : All in a night? [He tries to open the door and it is not locked. Some stuff lying on the ground, and the mattress against the wall, but the room is empty.] Student : Yes, there are left to London to work with George Stephanopoulos Rusty : Magda Stephanopoulos. [He sees a cardboard marked with "Please to deliver to Casey Cartwright, Zeta Beta House". Rusty turns to the student.] Rusty : Does he say he was leaving the country? I mean do you talked to him? Student : This morning he was there was nothing for him here. Rusty : While is really gone. Student : [shrug] Well ... I'm really sorry. [Rusty sighs.] RUSTY AND DALE'S APPARTMENT [Rusty tries to work in the kitchen, and you always hear the radio with religious texts. Dale goes with a basket of laundry.] Rusty : Hey, you believe that God could take a little break now? Dale : [going off the sound] Of course. [Putting himself next to him] You know, school is just about average, although I've never had D before, maybe it's not as serious as believe. Rusty : 100 extra points, with a D on my part and just having the final exam, which is virtually impossible, my average is a C -. I should have listened to you, whoever said "Live each day as if it were your last" is a moron! Dale : The first rule when you live each day as if it were your last, is to ensure that it is really the last. Rusty : Down was the last sort. Even with A in all my classes strengthened, my average is still below the required 3.5, so ... It's over. [The grave] I'll be fired for being strengthened. ZBZ HOUSE [Two sisters come out of the house, and someone enters. Casey not knowing who knows rises from behind the couch and sh*t him with a foam dart. But it is> rusty which brings the box of Max.] Rusty : Wow. [Casey laughs.] Casey : Sorry Rusty, I chose my dart gn. There's what in the box? Rusty : [putting the box on the coffee table] This is for you. [The harsh tone] It's from Max! Casey : Oh. So you're all aware that we are two ... more together. Rusty : You're aware that he went back to London? Casey : He is left? How does the university gave him a temporary absence. Rusty : Apparently he turned it into final leave of absence. You see it always ends like this. [Shrug] You sow the chaos in your wake. He still left the country because of you. Casey : Wait that's not my fault! It is big enough to make choices. Rusty : was my friend. This was the only face to inspire me acamédémiquement. And he's gone! Casey : But is not a valid reason for me to stay in a relationship with him. It was not the right person for me! Rusty : and Cappie though?! Casey : I'm not with Cappie, I finally ... believe. Rusty : How you not know? Casey : [blwing] Ohh, listen. I'm really really sorry about Max. But you can always call or write him or see him. Rusty : I need it now! I have, I have not finished my TP on Grignard last night. Casey : Grignard ?

Rusty : What? Beaver : And that's Pickle wins. Pickle : [raising his mitrailette] Ha ha. Wade : [disguised as an old, on which Rusty sht] But why did you sht an old? Rusty : when you're old one? Cappie : [rising from his chair] The drooling is right! [Pointing the finger at Wade] You could have been a serial kller disguised as an old woman. Did not you see the movie "Potin woman"? Wade : I think that that is the subject of this film. Cappie : Ooooh, but if you imagine that they are bloodthirsty serial Kllers, it's much more watchable. Lachez him the cluster. [Leaning over the bar] All is well the drooling? Asd You look pretty ... tense. Rusty : okay. I would say the same for Max. Cappie : I learned that they broke last night. How is she? Rusty : We have all made choices last night, and he will have to live with the consequences. Cappie : You're probably right. [Shouting] Well the grazer it to me!

Calvin : But does not mean that I will not, I really like Grant. It's great! We will give a chance. Dale : And your brothers and your circle, eh? Calvin : Should we be discreet. I already did with Jesse. When I think I'm pretty good at secrets. Maybe I could become a real kller. Dale : Tell me have you ever heard of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse? Calvin : Dale Yes I know I will go to hell twice, because I'm gay and because I sleep before the wedding. And I have a question: If we legalize gay marriage and that Grant and I were married, I will save in the second case? Dale : I slept with Sheila. [Calvin drops the hanger that fits in the hand.] Dale : I was this stupid party, and everyone was talking about the end of the world, and the Apocalypse, and blah blah blah. It looked like it was Easter Sunday at home. And with all these people doing the fpete, I kept thinking "What if the world really had to stop, I'd be a virgin." Are you thinking about that before you your first time? And then I saw the four horsemen, at least I thought they were the four horsemen, but I realize now that this was probably the rise of campus security and not the ... sixth sign of the Apocalypse. But, I know I digress. And then I heard her voice, finally the voice of Q, which told me I could. So while you and Grant you were partying, Sheila and I came back here, and we did. She left before you arrive. [Calvin gets out of bed om they sit.] Dale : No worry, I had to wash the sheets at least nine times today. But ... In fact it was neither riders nor Q, nor anyone who pushed me, pushed me to do. I think I've been looking for any excuse to do it because I wanted to. And now I would like never to have done so because sex changes everything and ... It never comes back.

Casey : You mean sexually? Rusty : [laughs, a few general] In fact, we still ... Casey : [interrupting him, somewhat disgusted] Wait, forget the physical side. Rusty : Sorry. Since we go out together, make me feel like one of those guy who has no need to think about studying all the time. I can just hang out at the Kappa Tau, squeezing my girlfriend in my arms. [Casey looks at him, looking sad.] Rusty : And have fun you know, that's all. Casey : But, you're not like that at all. Rusty : [slightly annoyed] That's nice. Casey : No, no, I wanted to say ... Anyone can be like that, you know you be multi material, you can not let go of one thing for another. Rusty : As you've dropped Max for Cappie. Casey : No, I have not dropped Max to Cappie. I just realized that was very different. Rusty : You're miserable for Max. Casey : J'voulais really make it work between us. This is someone ... of awesome.

They say either a person has what it takes to play, or they don't. My mother was one of the greats. Me, on the other hand...I'm kinda screwed. (Meredith wakes up on the couch and pulls a blanket off a naked man on the floor, wrapping it around herself. She hits him with a pillow and he grunts, waking up. He lifts up her bra.) Man: This...is...? Meredith: (grabbing it, smiling) Humiliating on so many levels. You have to go. Man: (sitting up) Why don't you just come back down here and we'll pick up where we left off? Meredith: No, seriously. You have to go, I'm late. Which isn't what you want to be on your first day of work, so Man: So, ah, you actually live here. Meredith: No. Man: Oh. Meredith: Yes. Kind of. Man: (dressing) Oh. It's nice. Little dusty. Odd. But it's nice. So how do you kind of live here? Meredith: I moved two weeks ago from Boston, it was my mother's house, I'm selling it. Man: Oh, I'm sorry. Meredith: For what? Man: You said was. Meredith: Oh! My mother's not dad, she's - you know what, we don't have to do the thing. Man: Oh. We can do anything you want. Meredith: No, the thing, exchange the details, pretend we care...look, I'm gonna go upstairs and take a shower, okay, and when I get back down here, you won't be here, so, um, goodbye...um... Man: Derek. Meredith: (they shake hands) Derek. Right. Meredith. Derek: Meredith. Meredith: Yeah. (he comes closer, she backs away) Mm-hmm. Derek: Nice meeting you. Meredith: Bye Derek (smiling and fleeing for the stairs). (Cut to Meredith leaving the house. Derek is presumably gone. Panning shts over the city as Meredith drives to work. Meredith enters a room filled with other interns as a doctor talks.) Doctor: Each of you comes here hopeful. Wanting in on the game. A month ago you were in med school being taught by doctors. Today, you are the doctors. The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. You will be pushed to the breaking point. Look around you. Say hello to your competition. Eight of you will switch to an easier specialty. Five of you will crack under the pressure. Two of you will be asked to leave. This is your starting line. This is your arena. How well you play? That's up to you. Meredith VO: Like I said. I'm screwed. (Fadeout to logo, then cut to intern locker room.) Doctor: Okay. Martin, Robinson, Bond, Parkins. Meredith: Only six women out of twenty. Female Korean intern (Cristina Yang): Yeah. I hear one of them's a model. Seriously, like that's going to help with the respect thing? Meredith: You're Cristina, right? Cristina: Which resident you assigned to? I got Bailey. Meredith: The nzi? Yeah, me too. Male intern (George O'Malley): You got the nzi? So did I. At least we'll be tortured together, right? I'm George O'Malley, uh, we met at the mixer, you had a black dress with a slit up the side, strappy sandals...(Cristina and Meredith exchange looks) George: Now you think I'm gay. Cristina: (walking away) Uh-huh. George: No, I'm not gay, it's, ah, it's just that, you know, you were, I mean, you were very, unforgettable. Doctor: O'Malley, Yang, Grey, Stevens. George: (muttering) And I'm totally forgettable. Cristina: (to Doctor) Bailey? Doctor: End of the hall. Cristina: That's the nzi? (Medium sht of Dr. Bailey. She's short, black and a bit overweight. She doesn't look very thrat.) George: I thought the nzi would be a guy. Meredith: I thought the nzi would be...the nzi. Pretty female intern (Izzie Stevens): Maybe it's professional jealousy. Maybe she's brilliant, and they call her nzi because they're jealous. Maybe she's nice. Cristina: Let me guess. You're the model. (Izzie gives Cristina a look and turns to Dr. Bailey, smiling and extending a hand) Izzie: Hi, I'm Isabel Stevens, but everyone calls me Izzie. (Bailey looks her up and down, doesn't respond or shake her hand) Bailey: I have five rules. Memorise them. Rule number one, don't bother sucking up, I already hate you, that's not gonna change. (indicates stuff on the bench) Trauma protocol, phone lists, pagers. Nurses will page you, you answer every page at a run. A run, that's rule number two. Your first shift starts now and lasts forty-eight hours. You're interns, (�Hour 1' comes up on the screen), grunts, nobodies, bottom of the surgical food chain, you run labs, write orders, work every second night till you drop and don't complain! (Cut to Bailey opening the door to a room with a couple of bunk beds). On call rooms. Attendings hog them, sleep when you can, where you can, which brings me to rule number three, if I'm sleeping, don't wake me, unless your patient is actually dying. Rule number four, the dying patient better not be dad when I get there, not only would you have klled someone, you would have also woke me for no good reason, we clear? (Meredith raises a hand.) Bailey: Yes. Meredith: You said five rules. That was only four. (Bailey's pager beeps). Bailey: Rule number five. When I move, you move. (runs down the corridor, followed by the interns, yells at a few doctors blocking the hallway) Get out of my way! (Cut to sht of a helicopter over the city, cut to the interns and Bailey moving a stretcher over to it, on the roof of the hospital.) Bailey: What've we got? Paramedic: (as Katie's put on the stretcher and taken in to the hospital) Katie Bryce, fifteen-year-old female, new onset seizures, intermittent for the past week, ID lost en route, started grand mal seizing as we descended. Bailey: All right, get her on her side, Izzie, ten milligrams Diazepam, no, no, the white lead is on the right, righty whitey, smoke over fre, a large bore I.V. don't let the blood haemolyse, let's go! (Izzie injects her and she stops seizing. A new doctor, Preston Burke, enters, black, tall, young.) Burke: So I heard we got a wet fish on dry land? Bailey: Absolutely Dr. Burke. Burke: Dr. Bailey, I'm gonna gn her. Bailey: That means every test in the book, CT, CBC, chem. seven, tux screen, Cristina, you're on labs, George, patient workups, Meredith, get Katie for a CT, she's your responsibility now. Izzie: Wait, what about me? Bailey: You - honey, you get to do rectal exams. (Cut to Izzie pulling on gloves and covering her fingers with gel. Cut to Cristina peering into an operating room, where Bailey is.) Bailey: What are you doing here? Cristina: Um, Katie Bryce's labs came out clear, there's nothing in the results that explain her seizures, I just thought you'd wanna know. Bailey: Okay. (goes to pull her mask back up and close the door) Cristina: Ah, I - I heard every year the attending on call picks the best intern and, and lets them perform a procedure, during the first shift? (Bailey stares at her) I'm, I'm just saying it's what I heard... Bailey: Go away. Now. (Cut to George using a stethoscope.) George: Yeah, sounds good. Woman: He'll be fine? You'll be fine. Patient: (smiling, lying back) If you don't count that my bacon days are over, sure. George: You'll have surgery tomorrow with Dr. Burke, I hear he's good, and after that, you can have all of the bacon-flavoured soy product you can eat. Patient: Mmm, kll me now. George: I wish I could, but I'm a healer. (gets weird looks) (Cut to Meredith with Katie (on a bed) in an elevator.) Katie: You're lost. Meredith: I'm not lost. How are you feeling? Katie: How do you think I'm feeling? I'm missing my pageant. Meredith: You're missing your pageant. (wheeling her out of the elevator and around a corner) Katie: The Spokane Teen Miss? I was in the top ten after the first two rounds. This is my year. I could've won. (sitting up, being wheeled back around the same way) Hello? You're so lost. What are you, like, new? (Cut to Izzie...doing her job.) Izzie: Okay, so I'm gonna, just gonna, insert my fingers...into your rectum. (Cut to George giving his patient an injection. And again. It's hurting the patient. Cut back to Izzie's face. Cut back to George) George: Nope. (Cut back to Izzie, who's really disgusted now but not saying anything. Cut back to George's patient. Dr Burke is pulling on a glove.) Burke: (to George) Out. Out. George: Bet you missed a lot when you first started out. (Burke looks derisive.) (Cut to Katie and Meredith.) Katie: I twisted my ankle. I do rhythmic gymnastics, which is like, really cool. Nobody else does it. And I tripped over my ribbon, and I didn't get stuck with someone this clueless. And that was like, a nurse. (Cut to Burke) Burke: (to George) You and I are going to have so much fun together. (Cut to Izzie closing a curtain, cut to the cafeteria. HOUR 7.) George sits down. Izzie is staring at the food with some horror. George: This shift is a marathon, not a sprint, eat. Izzie: I can't. George: You should eat something. Izzie: You try eating after performing seventeen rectal exams. The nzi hates me. George: The nzi's a resident. I have attendings hating me. Cristina: You know Meredith is inbred? George: Like it's uncommon around here to be a doctor's - Cristina: No, I mean royally inbred. Her mother is Ellis Grey. Izzie: Shut up, the Ellis Grey? Cristina: Uh-huh. George: Who's Ellis Grey? Izzie and Cristina laugh. Cristina: The Grey method? Where'd you go to med school, Mexico? Izzie: She was one of the first big chick surgeons, she practically invented the abdominal- Cristina: She's a living legend, she won the Harper Avery. Twice. George: So I didn't know one thing. Izzie: Talk about parental pressure. Cristina: I would kll to have Ellis Grey as a mother. I would kll to be Ellis Grey. All I need is one good case. (Meredith comes over and sits down with her tray). Meredith: Katie Bryce is a pain in the ass. If I hadn't taken the Hippocratic oath, I'd Kevorkian her with my bare hands (everybody stares at her). Meredith: What? Burke: Good afternoon interns. It's posted, but I thought I'd share the good news personally. As you know, the honour of performing the first surgery is reserved for the intern that shows the most promise. As I'm running the OR today, I get to make that choice. (he claps George on the back) George O'Malley. You'll scrub in for an adipectomy this afternoon. Congratulations. George: Me? Burke: Enjoy. Burke leaves, no one speaks. George: Did he say me? Cut to another part of the hospital. Bailey: I've seen his file. George O'Malley barely made the cut to get into this program, he's not your guy. Burke: No, he's my guy all right. Bailey: Shit, every year you pick your guy, and every year your guy suffers more than any other intern on surgery. Burke: Terrorise one, and the rest fall in line. Bailey: I get it, I respect it, but George? O'Malley's a puppy, he can't even take the pressure. (walking away. Camera moves to a man and a woman, not doctors) Woman: Katie Bryce, 3604? Nurse: It's right there. Woman: Thank you. (Cut to inside Katie's room.) Woman: Katie, honey, mom and dad are here. Meredith: They gave her a sedative for the CT scan, so she's a little groggy. Mother: Will she be all right? Father: Our doctor at home said she might need an operation, is that true? Mother: What kind of operation? Meredith: She's, um, well, you know what, I'm not, I'm not the doctor, uh, I'm a doctor, but I'm not Katie's doctor, so I'll go get him for you. Meredith goes to Bailey. Bailey: What? Meredith: Katie's parents have questions. Do you talk to them, or do I ask Burke? Bailey: No, Burke's off the case, Katie belongs to the new attending now, Dr. Shepherd, he's over there. (we can't see Dr. Shepherd) Meredith takes a few steps in that direction. She stops dad. We can see him now, he's talking to another doctor. It's Derek, from this morning. Meredith's eyes widen and she starts to turn to go. He glances her way, does a double take. She turns and leaves. He's still staring. (Commercial break) (Meredith is walking down the hall and Derek grabs her arm.) Meredith: Hey - (he pulls her into a stairwell, no one's around.) Dr. Shepherd, - Derek: Dr. Shepherd? This morning it was Derek. Now it's Dr. Shepherd. Meredith: Dr. Shepherd, we should pretend it never happened. Derek: What never happened, you sleeping with last night? Or you throwing me out this morning? Because both are fond memories I'd like to hold onto. Meredith: No. There will be no memories. I'm not the girl in the bar anymore, and you're not the guy. This can't exist. You get that, right? Derek: You took advantage of me and now you want to forget about it. Meredith: I did not take - Derek: I was drunk, vulnerable and good-looking and you took advantage. Meredith: (smiling) Okay, I was the one who was drunk, and you are not that good-looking. Derek: Well, maybe not today. Last night, last night I was very good-looking. I had my red shirt on, my good-looking shirt, you took advantage. Meredith: I did not take - Derek: You want to take advantage again? Say Friday night? Meredith: No. You're an attending. And I'm your intern. Stop looking at me like that. Derek: Like what? Meredith: Like you've seen me naked. (Derek smirks) Dr. Shepherd. This is inappropriate. Has that ever occurred to you? (Meredith leaves, Shepherd sighs. Cut to George, about to go into surgery.) George: (muttering) Open identify ligate irrigate close. Open identify ligate irrigate close. Open identify ligate irrigate close. Intern 1: He's going to faint. He's a fainter. Intern 2: Naaah, code brown. Right in his pants. Intern 1: He's all about the flops, he's going to sweat himself unsterile. Intern 3: Ten bucks says he messes up the McBird. Cristina: Twenty says he cries. Intern 2: I'll put twenty on a total meltdown. Meredith: Fifty says he pulls the whole thing off. (Everybody looks at her, silent.) Meredith: That's one of us, down there. The first one of us. Where's your loyalty? (A pause.) Cristina: Seventy-five says he can't even ID the appendix. Izzie: I'll take that action. (others agree) Burke: Okay, O'Malley, let's see what you can do. Meredith: Here it comes. George: Scalpel. Nurse: Scalpel. (George takes it, the interns cheer from the gallery. Burke motions for them to shut up.) Cristina: That Burke, he's trouble. (interns laugh) (George gets ready to cut.) Burke: More pressure. Human flesh is a tough shell, dig in. George: Pick-ups. Nurse: Pick-ups. George: Clamp. Nurse: Clamp. George: Met some bone. I'm there. Intern 1: Damn, he got the peritoneum and he opened him up. Meredith: I told you, he's going to pull it off. George: Scalpel. Nurse: Scalpel. George: Appendix is out (tossing it into a tray, to cheers) Burke: Not bad. George: Thank you. Burke: Now all you have to do is invert the stump into the secum and simultaneously pull up on the purse-strings but be careful not to (rip) break them. (groans) He ripped the secum. Got a bleeder. You're filling with stool, what do you do now? George: Uh...uh... Burke: Think. You start the suction, and you start digging for those purse-strings before she bleeds to death. Belky, give him a clamp. Nurse: BP's dropping. Cristina: He's choking. Meredith: Come on, George. Burke: Today. Pull your balls out of your back pocket, let's go. What are you waiting for, suction? (beeping starts) Nurse: Getting too low folks... Dr Burke... Burke: Get out of the way. Pansy-ass idiot. Get him out of here. Suction. Clamp. Intern (Alex Karev): 007. Other intern: 007, yep, that's a total 007. Izzie: What's 007 mean? Meredith: Licensed to kll. (Cut to Seattle at night. Hour 19. Cut to interns sitting on spare beds along an empty corridor.) George: 007. They're calling me 007, aren't they? Izzie and Meredith: No one's calling you 007. George: I was on the elevator and Murphy whispered 007. Cristina: Oh, how many times do we have go through this, George, five, ten? Give me a number or else I'm going to ht you. George: Murphy whispered 007 and everyone laughed. Izzie: He wasn't talking about you. George: You sure? Meredith: Would we lie to you? George: Yes. Cristina: 007 is a state of mind. George: So says the girl who finished top of her class at Stanford. Pagers beep. Meredith: Oh man. It's 911 for Katie Bryce. I gotta go. (takes off at a run) George: Maybe I should've gone into geriatrics. No one minds when you kll an old person. Cristina: Surgery is hot, it's the Marines, it's the macho, it's hostile, it's hardcore. Geriatrics is for freaks who live with their mothers and never have sex. George: I've got to get my own place. (Cut to Meredith running to Katie. She goes in, Katie's reading a magazine.) Katie: Took you long enough. Meredith: You're okay? The nurse paged me 911. Katie: I had to go all Exorcist to get her to even pick up the phone. Meredith: Wait. There's nothing wrong with you? Katie: I'm bored. Meredith: You little...I'm not a cruise director. Katie: You don't have to wig out. The pageant's supposed to be on cable, but this crappy hospital doesn't get the channel. If that cow Kylie Wood is gonna walk off with my crown, I have to see it. Can you call someone? Meredith: Okay. This is an actual hospital. There are sick people here. Go to sleep, and stop wasting my time. Katie: But I can't sleep. My head's all full. Meredith: That's called thinking. Go with it. (Cut to Bailey, collapsed on a stretcher in a hallway. Izzie is standing nearby, looking uncertain.) Nurse: What do you need? Izzie: Mr Jones has junkie veins and he really needs antibiotics so I should start a central line. Nurse: So start one. (Pause.) You don't know how. Izzie: I've never done one. Nurse: Well, you know what that means. (looks to Bailey) Izzie: Can't we just...page someone else? Nurse: She's the on-call resident. Izzie: Okay. Okay, I'll just - I'll wake her. (walks over, taps Bailey's shoulder) Dr Bailey, I don't mean to bother you, but - Bailey: Then don't. Izzie: It's Mr. Jones. Bailey: Is he dying? Izzie: No. Bailey: Then stop talking to me. (Izzie turns away, turns back. Bailey gives up on sleep and sits up.) Bailey: What is it? (Cut to Bailey finishing up with the central line.) Bailey: Next time you wake me, he better be so close to dad there's a tag on his toe. (Cut to the city going from night to day. Several shts of Cristina/George/Izzie looking overworked.) Karev (male intern): 4B's got post-op pneumonia. Let's start antibiotics. Nurse: Are you sure that's the right diagnosis? Karev: Well I don't know, I'm only an intern. Here's an idea, why don't you go spend four years in med school and let me know if it's the right diagnosis. She's short of breath, she's got fever, she's post-op. Start the antibiotics. (walks over to Meredith) God I hate nurses. I'm Alex. I'm with Jeremy, you're with the nzi, right? Meredith: She may not have pneumonia, you know. She could be splinting, or have a PE. Karev: Like I said, I hate nurses. Meredith: What did you just say? Did you just call me a nurse? Karev: Well, if the white cap fits... Meredith's pager beeps and she walks away. Meredith: Damnit, Katie...(not running this time) Karev: She seeing anybody? George: I don't know. Karev: (whistles) She's hot. George: I'm friends with her. I mean, kinda friends, I mean, not, you know, actually friends, not exactly, but we're tight. We hang out. I mean, really only just today - Karev: Dude. George: - but - Karev: Dude. Stop talking. (Cut to Meredith, walking up the stairs to Katie. She's not in a hurry. She sees nurses rushing into the room and starts to run.) Nurse 1 (echoey voice): What took you so long? Nurse 2 (echoey voice): She's having multiple grand mal seizures, now how do you want to proceed? Dr. Grey? Are you listening to me? She's got Diazepam, 2mg Diazepam, I just gave her a second ago, Dr. Grey, you need to tell us what you want to do. Dr Grey! (Meredith is panicking. She picks up the chart and voices stop sounding echoey.) Meredith: Okay, she's full on Prazepam? Nurse 1: She's had 4mg. Meredith: Did you page Dr. Bailey and Dr Shepherd? Nurse 2: The Prazepam's not working. Meredith: Phenobarbital, load her with Phenobarbital. Nurse 2: Pheno's in. Nurse 3: No change. Meredith: You paged Dr. Shepherd? Nurse 3: I just told you. Meredith: Well page him again! Stat. Nurse 2: What do you want to do? (back to echoey voice) Dr. Grey, you need to tell us what you want to do! Beeping. Nurse 2: Heart's stopped! Nurse 1: Code blue, code blue! Code blue, code blue! They pull out the defibrillators. Meredith takes them, her brain's working again. Meredith: Charge pulse of two hundred. Nurse: Charged. Clear. (Meredith defibs) Nurse 2: Still defib. Nothing. Nurse 1: Charging. 19 seconds. Meredith: Charge to 300. Nurse 1: 300. Anything? 27 seconds. Meredith: Charge to 360. (still nothing) Come on, Katie. Nurse 3: 49 seconds. Nurse 2: At 60 seconds you're supposed to admit her - Meredith: Charge again! (nurse doesn't) Charge again. (nurse does, we see Katie's BP register) Anything? Nurse 1: I see sinus rhythm. Nurse 2: Blood pressure's coming up. Nurse 1: All right now. Pressure's returning. Grid's coming back... (Shepherd runs in.) Derek: What the hell happened? Meredith: She had a seizure, and - Derek: A seizure? Meredith: her heart stopped. Derek: You were supposed to be monitoring her. Meredith: I checked on her and she - Derek: I got it. Just - just - go. (Meredith turns away) Someone give me her chart, please? (Cut to Meredith walking towards Bailey.) Bailey: You get a 911, you page me immediately, not in the five minutes it takes you to get to the emergency, immediately, you are on my team and if somebody dies it's my ass, (Meredith's walking away) you hear me, Grey? Cristina: Meredith? (Meredith walks outside into the rain, Cristina follows. Meredith throws up on the grass; Cristina has stopped at the door.) Meredith: If you tell anyone, ever...(re-enters hospital). (More cityscape and sunrise: Hour 24.) Katie's father: (to Derek) You said it was a seizure disorder. Now you're saying it isn't? Derek: I'm saying that I don't know. Mother: Well, what do you think it could be? Derek: I don't know. Father: (frustrated) When will you know? Derek: I don't have an answer for you. For now, Katie is sab - Father: Wait one damn minute. We came here because this hospital is supposed to be the best in Washington. That's my kid in there. My kid. And you have the audacity to stand here and tell me I don't know? Derek: Mr. Bryce, - Father: No, I want someone else. A doctor who knows what they're doing. You get me someone else. Someone better than you. Derek: Mr Bryce, I assure you that I am working hard on Katie's case. Father: No, you're not. If you were, you'd be able to give me some answers. (Cut to Burke, talking to the guy who can't eat any more bacon.) Burke: I put you on a bypass machine, which pumps blood for your heart, fix your ticker, take you off the machine, I'm done. Simple procedure. Woman: So, I shouldn't worry? Burke: I'm very good at what I do. It's still a surgery. There are some risks. I'll see you in the OR this afternoon, Mr. Savage. Mr Savage: You're not going to leave me in there alone with that guy, are you? George: Oh, I'll be outside the OR the whole time. Dr Burke is very good. Don't worry. I'll see you after. Mrs. Savage: He'll be fine, right? George: It's one he's going to sail through. You have nothing to worry about. I promise. Gotta go. (Cut to Cristina and Meredith.) Meredith: What are you doing? Cristina: I'm suturing a banana, with the vain hope that it wakes up my brain. (George laughs.) Cristina: What're you smiling at, 007? (George stops laughing.) Cristina: I'm sorry, I get mean when I'm tired. George: You know what? I don't care. I comforted a family, and I get to hang out in the OR today. All is well. Cristina: Does anybody know why we're here? (lots of interns, packed into one room. Derek enters.) Derek: Well good morning. I'm going to do something pretty rare for a surgeon, I'm going to ask interns for help. I've got this kid, Katie Bryce. Right now, she's a mystery. She doesn't respond to her meds. Labs are clean, scans are pure, but she's having seizures. Grand mal seizures with no visible cause. She's a ticking clock. She's going to die, if I don't make a diagnosis. Which is where you come in. I can't do it alone. I need your extra minds, extra eyes, I need you to play detective, I need you to find out why Katie is having seizures. I know you're tired, you're busy, you've got more work than you could possibly handle. I understand. So, I'm going to give you an incentive. Whoever finds the answer rides with me. Katie needs surgery. You get to do what no interns get to do. Scrub in to assist on an advanced procedure. Dr Bailey's going to hand you Katie's chart. The clock is ticking fast, people. If we're going to save Katie's life, we have to do it soon. (All interns grab copies of her chart. Cut to Meredith and Alex.) Alex: Look, give the antibiotics time to work. Nurse: The antibiotics should've worked by now. Alex: She's old, she's freaking ancient. She's lucky she's still breathing. Now, I got a sht to scrub in downstairs and a patient who wasn't alive during the civil wr. Don't page me again. (walks off, Cristina comes over) Cristina: Hey, I want in on Shepherd's surgery. You've been the intern on Katie since the start. You want to work together? We find the answer, we have a fifty-fifty chance of scrubbing in. Meredith: I'll work with you, but I don't want in on the surgery. You can have it. Cristina: Are you kidding me? It's the biggest opportunity any intern will ever get. Meredith: I don't want to spend any more time with Shepherd than I have to. Cristina: What do you have against Shepherd? Meredith: If we find the answer, the surgery's yours. Do you want to work together or not? Cristina: (grinning and shaking her head) Deal. (Cut to library.) Cristina: Well, she doesn't have anoxia, chronic renal failure or acidosis. It's not a tumour because her CT's clean. Are you seriously not going to tell me why you won't work with Shepherd? Meredith: No. What about infection? Cristina: No. There's no white count, she has no ceteal lesions, no fevers, nothing in her spinal tap, just tell me. Meredith: You can't comment, make a face, or react in any way. We had sex. (Cristina opens her mouth, closes it, and) Cristina: What about an aneurysm? Meredith: No blood on the CT, and no headaches. Cristina: Okay. There's no drug use, uh, no pregnancy, no trauma...was he good? I mean, he looks like he would be, was it any good? Meredith: What are the answers? What if no one comes up with anything? Cristina: You mean if she dies? Meredith: Yeah. Cristina: This is gonna sound really bad, but I really wanted that surgery. Meredith: She's just never going to get the chance to turn into a person. The sum total of her existence will be almost winning Miss Teen whatever. You know what her pageant talent is? Cristina: They have talent? Meredith: Rhythmic gymnastics. (they laugh) Cristina: Oh, come on. Meredith: What is rhythmic gymnastics? I don't know - I can't even say it, I don't know what it is. Cristina: Isn't it like something with a ball, and a (Meredith goes still) ...what? Meredith, what? Meredith: Get up! Come on! (Cut to them running.) Cristina: - the only thing she could possibly need is a - Oh, oh, Dr. Sheppard! Just one moment, um, uh, Katie competes in beauty pageants - Derek: I know that, but we have to save her life anyway. Cristina: Okay, she has no headaches, no neck pain, her CT's clean, there's no medical proof of an aneurysm - Derek: Right. Cristina: - but what if she has an aneurysm anyway? Derek: There are no indicators. Cristina: Ah, but she twisted her ankle, a few weeks ago when she was practising for the pageant - Derek: Look, I appreciate you're trying to help, but - Other doctor in elevator: This is not helping! Meredith: She fell. When she twisted her ankle, she fell. Cristina: It was no big deal, not even a bump on the head, you know she got right back up, iced her ankle and everything was fine, it was a fall so minor her doctor didn't even think to mention it when I was taking her history, but she did fall. Derek: Well, you know the chances that a minor fall could burst an aneurysm, one in a million! Literally. The elevator door is finally allowed to close. Meredith and Cristina sigh and turn away. The elevator dings and Derek steps out. They turn back. Derek: Let's go. Cristina: Where? Derek: To find out if Katie's one in a million. Cut to Cristina, Meredith and Derek looking at a scan. Derek: I'll be damned. Tech operating scan: (indicating dark spots) There it is. Derek: It's minor, but it's there. It's a cerebachnoid haemorrhage. She's bleeding into her brain. Cut to Meredith, Derek and Cristina walking. Derek: She could've gone her entire life without it ever being a problem. One tap in the right spot - Cristina: And explode. Derek: Exactly. Now I have to fix it. You two did great work. Love to stay and kiss your asses, but I gotta tell Katie's parents she's having surgery. Katie Bryce's chart, please. Receptionist: Here you go. Cristina: Oh, and Dr Sheppard, you said that you'd pick someone to scrub in if we helped. Derek: Oh, yes, right. Um, I'm sorry I can't take you both, it's going to be a full house. Meredith, I'll see you in OR. (They stand there for a moment or two. Cristina looks at Meredith, who's flustered.) Derek: Good. Thank you. (leaves) (Cristina looks back at Meredith and walks off, clearly pissed.) Meredith: Cristina... (Cut to George watching bacon-man's surgery. It finishes, Burke leaves.) George: Wow, that was quick. Burke: His heart had too much damage to give him a bypass. I had to let him go. It happens, rarely. But it does happen. The worst part of the game. George: But I told his wi- I told Gloria that he would be fine. I promised her that - Burke: You what? George: They have four little girls - Burke: Who the hell are you to promise anything on - this is my case. Did you hear me promise? The only one that can keep a promise like that is God, and I haven't seen him holding a scalpel lately. You never promise a patient's family a good outcome! George: I - I thought - Burke: You're important enough to make promises to Mrs. Savage, you get to be the one to tell her that she's a widow. (Cut to Izzie and Cristina, sitting on the spare beds in the empty corridor again.) Cristina: Izzie. Izzie: Maybe Meredith couldn't - Cristina: Izzie! Meredith comes in. Meredith: I'll tell him I changed my mind, you can - Cristina: No, no, don't do me any favours. It's fine. Meredith: Cristina, - Cristina: You know what, you did a cutthroat thing, deal with it. Don't come to me for absolution, you want to be a shark, be a shark. Meredith: I'm not - Cristina: Oh yes you are. Only it makes you feel all bad in your warm gooey places. No, screw you. I don't get picked for surgeries because I slept with my boss, and I didn't get into med school because I have a famous mother. You know, some of us have to earn what we get. Meredith leaves. Cut to George going to see Mrs. Savage. George: Gloria...there were complications in the surgery. Tony's heart had a, a lot of damage. They - we tried to take him off bypass, but...there wasn't anything we could've done. Gloria: Uh...what are you talking about? George: He...Tony died. He's dad. Gloria, I'm so sorry. Gloria: (whispered) Thank you. Please...go away. (He does. We hear her crying. Cut to Derek shaving Katie's head while Meredith looks on.) Derek: I promised I'd make her look cool. Apparently being a bald beauty queen is the worst thing that happened in the history of the world. Meredith: Did you choose me for the surgery because I slept with you? Derek: (straight-faced) Yes. (pregnant pause) I'm kidding. Meredith: I'm not going to scrub in for surgery. You should ask Cristina. She really wants it. Derek: You're Katie's doctor. And on your first day, with very little training, you helped save her life. You earned the right to follow her case to the finish. You...you shouldn't let the fact that we had sex get in the way of you taking your sht. (Cut to George and Meredith sitting outside.) Meredith: I wish I wanted to be a chef. Or a ski instructor. Or a kindergarten teacher. George: You know, I would've been a really good postal worker. I'm dependable. You know, my parents tell everyone they meet that their son's a surgeon. As if it's a big accomplishment. A superhero or something. If they could see me now... Meredith: When I told my mother I wanted to go to medical school, she tried to talk me out of it. Said I didn't have what it takes to be a surgeon. That I'd never make it. So, the way I see it, superhero sounds pretty damn good. George: We're going to survive this, right? (Cut to Dr Webber (head of the hospital) talking to Alex.) Webber: She's still short of breath. Did you get an ABG or a chest film? Alex: Oh, yes sir, I did. Webber: And what did you see? Alex: Oh, well, I had a lot of patients last - Webber: Name the common causes of post-op fever. Alex: Uh...yes, sir. (pulls notebook out of pocket) Webber: From your head. Not from a book. Don't look it up, learn it, it should be in your head. Name the common causes of post-op fever. Alex: Uh...the common causes of post-op... Webber: (loudly) Can anybody name the common causes of post-op fever? (Everybody stops, one girl pulls out her notebook.) Meredith: Wind, water, wound, walking, wonder drugs. The five Ws. Most of the time it's wind, splinting or pneumonia. Pneumonia's easy to assume, especially if you're too busy to do the tests. Webber: (gives Alex a pointed look, then to Meredith) What do you think's wrong with 4B? Meredith: The fourth W, walking. I think she's a prime candidate for a pulmonary ambulus. Webber: How would you diagnose? Meredith: Spiral CT, VQ scan, provide O2, dose with Heparin, and consult for an IVC filter. Webber: (to Alex) Do exactly as she says, then tell your resident that I want you off this case. (to Meredith) I'd know you anywhere, you're the spitting image of your mother. Welcome to the gng. (Cut to Katie's surgery. Meredith is there.) Derek: All right everybody, it's a beautiful night to save lives, let's have some fun. Meredith voiceover: I can't think of any one reason why I want to be a surgeon. But I can think of a thousand reasons why I should quit. (Cut to Bailey sleeping and Izzie walking towards her again.) Meredith VO: They make it hard on purpose. There are lives in our hands. (Cut to the surgery.) Meredith VO: There comes a moment when it's more than just a game. And you either take that step forward, or turn around and walk away. (Cristina is seen watching from the gallery. Sheppard waves Meredith over to look through the magnifiers at what's happening.) I could quit. But here's the thing: I love the playing field. (Fade to Meredith sitting outside the OR, dazed. Cristina walks through the door and turns back.) Cristina: It was a good surgery. Meredith: Yeah. (Hour 48. Cristina sits and sighs.) Cristina: We don't have to do that thing where I say something, and then you say something, and then somebody cries, and there's like a moment... Meredith: Yuck. Cristina: Good. You should get some sleep. You look like crap. Meredith: I look better than you. Cristina: It's not possible.(leaves) (Derek comes through the same door, stops at a desk to do some paperwork. Meredith stares at him, still looking dazed.) Meredith: That was amazing. Derek: Mmmm. Meredith: You practice on cadavers, you observe, and you think you know what you're going to feel like standing over that table, but...that was such a high. Derek looks at her properly now and nods. Meredith: I don't know why anybody does drugs. Derek: (nodding slightly, looking tired) Yeah. Meredith: (smiling) Yeah. Derek: (smiling back a bit) I should go do this. Meredith: You should. Derek: (going) I'll see you around. Meredith: See you around. See ya. (Cut to outside the hospital, we see Izzie, George, Cristina and Meredith walking to the parking lot.) Meredith VO: So. I made it through my first shift. We all did. The other interns are all good people, you'd like them. I think. I don't know. (fade to Meredith running up stairs in the rain, under an umbrella) Maybe. I like them. (She enters a building, reception waves her on) Oh, and I changed my mind. (Close-up on an older woman). I'm not going to sell the house. I'm going to keep it. I'll have to get a couple of roommates, but (we see Meredith is talking to her) it's home, you know? Older woman: Are you the doctor? Meredith: No. I'm not your doctor. But I am a doctor. Older woman: What's your name? Meredith: It's me, mom. Meredith. Ellis Grey: All right. (fidgets with her watch) I used to be a doctor, I think. Meredith: (taking her hand) You were a doctor, mom. You were a surgeon. (Slow zoom out and fade to black on the two.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x01 - A Hard Day's Night (Pilot)"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x02: The First Cut Is the Deepest Original Airdate: 4/3/2005 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Peter Horton Previously On... Webber: The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. You will be pushed to the breaking point. Eight of you will switch to an easier specialty. Five of you will crack under the pressure. Two of you will be asked to leave. Cut to Meredith and Derek. Meredith: Dr. Shepherd, we should pretend it never happened. Derek: What never happened, you sleeping with last night? Or you throwing me out this morning? Meredith: No. You're an attending. And I'm your intern. Stop looking at me like that. Derek: Like what? Meredith: Like you've seen me naked. (Shepherd smirks) Cut to Bailey walking the interns around the hospital. Bailey: Your first shift starts now and lasts forty-eight hours. You're interns, grunts, nobodies, bottom of the surgical food chain. Cut to when Cristina asked about the best-intern-surgery. Bailey: What are you doing here? Cut to George irritating Burke. Burke: You and I are going to have so much fun together. Cut to interns having lunch. Cristina: You know Meredith is inbred? George: Like it's uncommon around here to be a doctor's - Cristina: No, royally inbred. Her mother is Ellis Grey. Izzie: Shut up, the Ellis Grey? Cristina: Uh-huh. (fade to Ellis in the nursing home) She's a living legend. Ellis: (to Meredith) What's your name? Meredith: It's me, mom. Meredith. Ellis: All right. Cut to George and Meredith talking outside. George: We're going to survive this, right? Episode Starts Meredith enters the locker room and puts up a Roommates Wanted sign on the noticeboard. She wants non-smoking non-Bush-supporters with no pets. Meredith VO: (to city montage and Izzie/George/Cristina arriving) It's all about lines. The finish line at the end of residency, waiting in line for a chance at the operating table, and then, there's the most important line. The line separating you from the people you work with. It doesn't help to get too familiar. To make friends. You need boundaries between you and the rest of the world. Other people are far too messy. It's all about lines. Drawing lines in the sand, and praying like hell no one crosses them. We see Meredith talking to a blonde woman, another intern. Meredith: Look, I'm sure you're very nice, but I've very particular about who lives in my house and you're just not right. Blonde: Why? Look, I'm quiet, no loud music, no parties. Meredith: Where were you when the Challenger exploded? Blonde: The what? Meredith: The space shuttle. Challenger. Blonde: Uhh, I think I was in kindergarten. Meredith: Exactly. No. Cut to Izzie, Meredith and George in a corridor. Izzie: Why do you put up posters for roommates if you don't want roommates? Meredith: I do want roommates, we're together a hundred hours a week, you want to live together too? Cristina: No. Ooh, you're bringing bribes now? (Meredith has coffee for Bailey) George: I need a place to live. My mom irons my scrubs. I have to get out of there. Meredith: It's not a bribe, I don't think it's a good idea. George: But I can put down last, first and deposit. Cristina: It's totally a bribe. Izzie: I can cook. And I'm an obsessive cleaner. Meredith: No. I just want two total strangers who I don't have to talk to, or be nice to, and it's not a bribe, it's a mocha latte. Bailey: George, you're running the code team, Meredith, take the trauma patients, Cristina, deliver the weekend labs to the patients, Izzie, you're on sutures. Meredith: Dr Bailey. I was hoping to assist you in the OR today, maybe do a minor procedure? I think I'm ready. Mocha latte? Cristina: If she gets to cut, I want to cut too. Izzie: Yeah, me too. George: I wouldn't mind another sht, I mean if everybody else is... Bailey: Stop talking. Every intern wants to perform their first surgery, that's not your job. Do you know what your job is? To make your resident happy. Do I look happy? No. Why? Because my interns are whining. You know what will make me look happy? Having the code team staffed, having the trauma patients answered, having the weekend labs delivered, and having someone down in the Pit, doing the sutures. (takes the mocha latte) No one holds a scalpel until I'm so happy I'm Mary freakin' Poppins. Cristina: Mocha latte my ass. Bailey: Why're y'all standing there? Move! They move. Meredith moves to the elevator, where Dr. Shepherd is waiting. Derek: Seattle has ferry boats. Meredith: Yes. Derek: I didn't know that. I've been living here six weeks, I didn't know there were ferry boats. Meredith: Seattle is surrounded by water on three sides. Derek: Hence the ferry boats. (elevator arrives) Now I have to like it here. I wasn't planning on liking it here. I'm from New York. Genetically engineered to dislike everywhere, except Manhattan. I have a thing for ferry boats. (they're in the elevator alone) Meredith: I'm not going out with you. Derek: Did I ask you to go out with me? (pause) Do you want to go out with me? Meredith: I'm not dating you. And I'm definitely not sleeping with you again. You're my boss. Derek: I'm your boss's boss. Meredith: You're my teacher. And my teacher's teacher. And you're my teacher. Derek: I'm your sister, I'm your daughter. Meredith: You're sexually harassing me. Derek: I'm riding an elevator. Meredith: Look, I'm drawing a line. The line is drawn. There's a big line. Derek: So, this line. Is it imaginary, or do I need to get you a marker? Meredith stares at him for a second, drops her folders and kisses him. He's just a tad surprised but catches on pretty fast, until the elevator doors ding and Meredith quickly crouches to pick up her folders and leave. Derek stands there looking bemused. Derek: We'll talk later? Cut to Meredith walking. Nurse: You the surgeon? Meredith: Yes. Nurse: We've got a rpe victim. You better get in there. Nurse 2: 21-year-old female found down at the park, status: post-trauma, she came in with a GCS of 6, BP 80 over 60, head trauma, unequal breath sounds, right pupil is dilated, and she's ready for x-ray. You ready to roll? Meredith has seen the girl's shoes, which are identical to the ones she wore to work. Nurse 2: Hey! Meredith: Yeah. Call it in to clear CT, let them know I'm coming, load up the portable monitor, call respiratory for a ventilator, I'll get x-rays while I'm down there. Cut to the rpe victim's surgery. Derek: She's going to spend a hell of a lot of time in recovery and rehab. Burke: If she survives. Derek: What is she, like, 5'2�, a hundred pounds, she's still breathing after what this guy did to her? If they catch the guy, they should castrate him. Burke: See how shit her hands are? She tried to fight back. Derek: Tried to? rpe kit came back negative. She kicked his ass. Burke: So, we have a warrior among us, huh? Meredith: Alison. Her - her name is Alison. Derek: Alison. Burke: I think I may have found the cause of our rupture. (pulls out a piece of flesh) What is this? Does anyone know what this is? (he isn't testing) Meredith: Oh my god. Burke: What? Spit it out, Grey. Meredith: She bit it off. Burke: Bit off what? (other people echo him) Meredith: That's his...his penis. (shocked groans) She bit off his penis. Burke can't get it into the tray fast enough. Opening sequence. Burke and Shepherd wash up after the surgery. Burke: If she can fight off the infection she'll be fine. Derek: That's all dependant on whether she wakes up in the next 72 hours. Burke: You know, we should get a drink later. You can tell me the long story of what makes a hot-sht doc leave the Big Apple for Seattle. Derek: It's a short story actually. Your chief of surgery (Webber) made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Burke: Richard asked you to come? Derek: Yeah. Why? Burke: Oh, nothing. Derek: See you later. Cut to Cristina and George: George: Do you know what the code team does? Saves lives. I shock a heart and someone lives to see another day. It's upbeat. It's glass half full. Cristina: Bambi, don't say another word until after the hunter sht your mother. George: I don't like you. Cristina: Well, I have a B.A. from Smith, a Ph. D from Berkeley, and an MD from Stanford and I'm delivering lab results. It's going to take me all day to get through these. It's going to take me all day to get through these. Bailey: Then get started. Cristina: Oh, uh, I wasn't complaining. I-I don't - Bailey: This intern was reassigned, so he's mine, now (it's Alex). Have him shadow you for the day. You show him how I do things. Alex: Alex Karev, nice to meet you. Cristina: The prig who called Meredith a nurse, yeah. I hate you on principle. Alex: And you're the pushy overbearing kiss-ass, I, uh, I hate you too. Cristina: Oh, should be fun then. George's pager beeps. Cut to George running along a corridor followed by the code team. They enter a patient's room to beeping. George: Okay, I'm George O'Malley, I'll be running this code. What've we got? Nurse: We've got a 57-year-old male, he's asystolic. Charge them to 200, please. Nurse 2: Clear. Cut to Izzie and an Asian woman. Izzie: All right, Mrs. Lu, I'm Dr. Stevens, I'm going to sew up your wound, and you're going to need...yeah, about six stitches. Are you allergic to any medication? Mrs Lu says something in Mandarin. Izzie: Oh, I'm sorry, I don't - I don't, um...do you speak English? Mrs Lu continues to speak in her language. Izzie: I'll find, um...(to everyone in the room) does anybody here speak Chinese? (no response). Cut to Meredith carrying a small esky. She knocks at the chief's office, an older woman is in there. Meredith: Hi, is the chief in? Woman: He's on his way. Is that it? Meredith: Yeah. Woman: Can I see it? (Meredith looks down at the box and up again) No, forget I asked. Webber: (entering) Meredith, it's good to see you. Hey, I heard your mother was leaving mail? She going back with the U.N.? Meredith: She's, ah, taking time off. Webber: To write another book, I suppose. Meredith nods. Meredith: Listen, so they said to bring this to you, so...? Webber: Yes, for the police. Meredith: Right. Webber: When did the police say they'll come? Woman: You know how slow they are. So, she'd better take it with her. Meredith: What? Woman: You have to take it with you. Webber: Chain of custody rules. All medical matter and array must stay with the person who collected it, until it's placed in police custody. Woman: You collected the specimen, so you have custody. Meredith: Custody of a penis. Webber: Yes. Until the cops come for it. Meredith: Okay. Well, what am I supposed to do with the penis? Webber has no answer. Cut to Cristina and Alex giving lab results to a family. Cristina: You have a disorder called multinucleate cell angiohistiocytomum. It's not a cancerous sarcoma, it's very rare but minor. You'll be discharged today, okay? Patient: I don't need a surgery? Cristina: No. Patient: I - I'm not going to die, I'm fine? Cristina: Fit as a fiddle, or whatever. The family laugh with relief. One kisses and hugs Cristina. She's about as thrilled as you might expect and looks at Alex, who is smiling at her. Cut to Meredith placing her esky on a desk where George is working. George: What's that? Meredith: Don't ask, you don't want to know. George: I do want to know. Really. Meredith: You really want to know? (he nods) It's a severed penis. George: Oookay. I didn't really want to know. Cristina: I don't know why I have to be the one who gets hugged. Alex: Because. I don't do that. Besides, you're the ovarian sister here. Cristina: Did you just call me an ovarian si- an ovarian - since when has the possession of ovaries become an insult? George: Meredith's carrying a penis around in a jar. Cristina: Oh, from the rpe surgery? (goes to look) Meredith: Yeah, and it's not a jar, it's a cooler. Cristina: Talk about taking a bite out of crime (leaves) George: (to Meredith) You okay? Meredith: Yeah...Alison's shoes. The rpe victim, Alison, her shoes. I have the same ones. In my locker. And I normally never wear them, because they're not comfortable, but today I did, and she was wearing the same shoes, and it's just...stupid, and I'm tired, and forget it. George: You know what you need? (they stare at each other) Meredith: No. It's sick and twisted. We said last time was the last time. (George looks away). You've been doing it without me? George: Nancy Reagan lied. You can't just say no. Come on. Meredith: Do you know what would happen if anyone knew? George: I'm doing it. You can come with me...or you can stay here, and be miserable. Cut to a baby waking up, and then others. It's a nursery, George and Meredith are outside. George does baby talk. Meredith: You are such a woman. George's pager beeps. George: It's a code. I gotta go. Meredith watches them and sighs. Meredith: You are really cute. We focus on one baby. Meredith's worried. A close-up shows his face is going blue. Fadeout. Now Meredith's in there, checking him with a stethoscope. He looks okay now. Another intern walks in. Other intern: What are you doing in here? Meredith: There were no tests ordered. And the baby has a murmur. Intern: I know. Meredith: He turned blue. Intern: You're surgery, you're not authorised to be in here. Do you know how much trouble you can get into for this? Meredith: Are you going to do any tests? Intern: It's a benign systolic ejection murmur. It goes away with age. Meredith: So you're not going to do any tests. Intern: He's not your patient, he's not even on your service. Meredith: Are you sure it's benign? Intern: I'm a doctor too, you know. You should get out of here. Meredith gets her penis and goes. Cut to Izzie and the Chinese woman. Cristina: You get a good case? Izzie: No, her. She won't let me sew her up. (Chinese woman speaks again) I wouldn't have called you, but I can't get hold of the translator. Can you just ask her what's wrong? Cristina looks to the woman and back to Izzie. Cristina: No. Izzie: Why not? Cristina: Because I grew up in Beverley Hills. The only Chinese I know is from a Mr. Chou's menu. Besides, I'm Korean. (leaves) Chinese woman sighs. Cut to Webber running into Burke. Burke: Chief! So you asked Shepherd to come to Grace. Webber: He's an old student of mine. Burke: Oh. He left a private practice because you asked. Webber: Yes. Burke: No other reason? Just a favour for an old professor. Webber: It'll be years before I retire. Burke: Chief of Surgery is mine. Chief of Surgery is mine. Webber: It was yours, now I'm not so sure. Burke: I am the best surgeon at Grace with the lowest mortality rate, you can't just bring some guy in from - Webber: Now ask me why I'm not so sure about you. Ask me why. Burke stalks off. Cut to Cristina and Alex. Cristina: Don't people get sick anymore? Alex: I mean, how are we supposed to get any OR time if everyone's gonna just live? Cristina: Look, I'll take ten, and you take ten. Get in, get out. No smiling, no hugging, no letting them cry, just be quick about it. Alex: You're the one that's slow. Cristina: I am not the one that's slow. You are slow. Alex: You wanna bet? Cristina: Yeah, you're on. Cut to Cristina and Alex rushing through the results (separate cases). Cristina: A comprehensive workup - Alex: - did not reveal any vascular abnormalities. Cristina: Your Doppler was negative, Alex: for deep venous thrombosis, so there's no need for chronic anti- Cristina: coagulation, or an IBC filter. Alex: Your biopsy was however positive for - Cristina: a mixed anaerobics - Alex: non group A streptococcie infection. Cristina: Your BEO and encriatan elevations had us worried - Alex: about rapidly progressive phlameleonephritis - Cristina: Which could've seen you with an autoimmune disease. Patient: What does that mean? Cristina: We're not going to amputate your leg. Alex: You get to keep your kidneys. Cristina: Congratulations (is hugged). You can go home today (hugged by another patient). Alex: Yeah, yeah. Congratulations. Whatever. (beats a hasty retreat, then we see him backing away from a patient with arms outstretched like a zombie, then he ducks under another patient's arms, who hugs his wife instead while Alex runs for it). Cristina: (in different instances) Congratulations. There's nothing wrong with you. You're gonna be fine. Congratulations. Cut to George running with the code team. Cut to Meredith talking to a bunch of interns. Meredith: What's your favourite 80s group? Intern 1: Queen. Meredith: No. Intern 2: Twist Your Sister. Meredith groans and gets up to leave. Intern 2: It's not like there's a right or wrong answer to that question! Meredith: (leaving) The Go-Gos, Duran Duran, Eurythmics... Cut to Alex and Cristina rushing around. Alex: Have a nice day. Cristina: You can go home today. Cut to George running around with the code team, then George standing at the end of a bed, looking unhappy. Beeping noise. George: Time of death, 15:45. Cut to Meredith looking at the rpe victim. Derek comes over. Derek: Meredith. I've called every hospital in the county. Sooner or later, the guy that did this is going to seek medical attention, and when he does, that penis you're carrying around is going to nail him. Meredith: Where is her family? Derek: Doesn't have any. Meredith: No siblings? Derek: No. Both parents are dad. She just moved to Seattle three weeks ago. Welcome to the city. Meredith, you okay? Meredith: Yeah. I'm fine, I just...have to do something. I have to go. Derek: Right. I'm going to sit with her. Cut to Meredith chasing Burke. Meredith: Dr Burke? Burke: Mmm? Meredith: There's a baby up in paeds, I saw him have a tet spell, and I think I hear a murmur. Burke: Mmm. Did paeds call us for a consult? Meredith: Actually, no, they're not doing anything about it - Burke: So you want me to what? Meredith: If you could just go up and look at him - Burke: Mm-hmm, not without a paeds consult. Meredith: Yeah, but - Burke: I'm a busy man, Grey, and there are rules. Look, it's not like I'm the Chief of something. He leaves. Cut to Izzie bandaging up a man's hand. Man: You're hot. Izzie: You're drunk. Hold still. Man: Wait, you're that girl, from that magazine, the one, that red bikini? Izzie: Yeah, it was pink. I'm done, you can see the nurse outside now. The Chinese woman comes up and starts talking again, distressed. Man: Is she crazy or something? Izzie: No, I don't think so. (motions for him to leave). Kay, please, please sit down, I really need to look at your arm. (woman does) Okay. Izzie gets to work, the woman speaks, Izzie looks up at her but doesn't know what to do, so she gets back to the arm wound. Cut to Meredith and Cristina in the lobby. Cristina: What're you doing down here? Meredith: Just sitting here with my penis. What about you? Cristina: Hiding from Alex. Meredith: I kissed Derek. Cristina: You kissed Derek. Meredith: In the elevator. Cristina: Oh, you kissed him in the elevator. Meredith: I was having a bad day. I am having a bad day. Cristina: Oh, so this is what you do on your bad days. Make out with Dr. McDreamy. (they get up to leave) Meredith: Well, that, and you know, carrying around a penis just makes everything seem so shiny and happy. Cristina: Mmm. George said Alison was wearing your shoes. Meredith: Yeah. It's weird, right? Cristina: It's weird that you care. Meredith: I think it's weird. They hear a car swerve and, looking through the glass at what we can't see, rush outside. A man is staggering out of his car, his clothes soaked in blood, mainly around his crotch.. He collapses. In seconds there are doctors and nurses checking him. Cut to Meredith calling security and then pulling the man's bed with other hospital staff. Bailey: So, what've we got? Meredith: Take a look. Bailey: What? (looks) All right, let's get him into OR 1. Meredith, you call the chief and let him know we got the rpist. Cut to Meredith and Cristina, masks on, in the OR. Meredith: I saw Alison, you can't believe the beating that she took. And then to see this... Cristina: It's like that old saying, you should see the other guy. Bailey: Why are we not attempting to reattach the severed penis? Cristina: Teeth don't slice, they tear, you can only reattach with a clean cut. If she wanted to slice him off with a Knfe... Meredith: Besides, the digestive juices didn't leave much of the flesh to work with. Bailey: Right, so what do we do? Cristina: Sew him up minus a large part of the family jewels. Bailey: And his outlook? Meredith: He'll be urinating out of a bag for a very, very long time. Cristina: Not to mention he'll never be able to have sex again. Meredith: Oh, too bad. Cristina: Shame. Bailey: Let's all take a moment to grieve. Clamp. Cut to Webber coming out of an OR. Burke: Richard. Webber: We got the rpist. He stumbled right into the hospital. Burke: Yeah, I heard. Webber: Listen, Burke... Burke: Why? Webber: You really want to know? Burke: I want to know when you stopped thinking of me as your number one. Richard, I do more in this hospital than any other surgeon. Webber: You do only exactly as much as is necessary. You never take an extra step, you never give an extra minute. You're comfortable. And arrogant, and it doesn't impress me. You want to be chief, earn it. (leaves) Burke sighs. He sees Meredith, she's wheeling a patient around. He walks off. Cut to Alison. She's unconscious, Derek is watching her. He slumps into a chair. Cut to Izzie and the Chinese woman. Izzie's done. Izzie: I'm sorry. I have patients lined up, I don't have time, I don't understand you. I'm sorry. (sighs) The Chinese woman finally nods, says something that sounds final, and leaves. sht of Seattle at night, clouds rolling in, then of Alex, in the spare beds + empty corridor area. Alex: My head hurts. Cristina: Maybe it's a tumour. Alex: Yeah, you wish I had a tumour. Cristina: Look, I'd rip your face off if it meant I got to scrub in. Izzie walks in. Izzie: I have been suturing all day. My hands are numb. George: At least you're helping people. Alex: At least you get to practice freaking medicine. Izzie: I had to send one Chinese lady away. She was like, camped out down there. Cristina: Oh, poor Izzie, turning away patients, boo-hoo. Meredith enters. Meredith: So the police say that they can't send down the crack crime scene guy for hours. So I have to spend the night with a penis. Alex, don't say it. Alex: Ahh, it was too easy anyway. George: Who here feels like they have no idea what they're doing? Everyone raises their hands, except Alex. George: I mean, are we supposed to be learning something, because I don't feel like I'm learning anything. Izzie: Except how not to sleep. Cristina: It's like there's this wall, and the attendings and the residents are over there, being surgeons, and we're over here, being... Meredith: Suturing, code running, lab delivering penis-minders. Alex: I hate being an intern. Bailey comes in and looks expectant. They get up and leave. She sits down and starts eating someone's chips. Meredith is back near the babies. She sees the parents of the boy she's worried about. Meredith: Hi. Mother: Hi. Meredith: Is he yours? Mother: (smiling) Yeah. Meredith: He's adorable. We see the paeds intern checking on him. She looks up and sees Meredith talking more seriously to the parents. Paeds Intern: Oh, please. (comes out to them) You are so out of line. Father: She says the murmur might not be benign. Meredith: I think we should do an echo, to check. Paeds Intern: This is your career. (goes back to get her resident) Meredith: There really is no reason to get alarmed. Paeds intern returns with her resident. Resident: What's the problem? Mother: If our baby is sick, we want him treated. Now. Resident: Who said your baby was sick? Paeds Intern: Her, the surgical intern who has no business on our service. Resident: Who authorised you being here? Meredith: I was just, actually - (Burke comes up behind her) Burke: I did. Could you excuse us for a second? (takes the resident aside) Resident: Dr Burke. Burke: Are you messing with my intern, Dr. Kerr? Kerr: No, sir. Burke: Give me the chart. Paeds Intern: There's nothing wrong with him, I checked. Burke: Are you sure? Paeds Intern: Yes. Burke: You can guarantee that he is fine, you are 100% sure. Intern looks hesitant. Kerr: How sure are you? Paeds Intern: I don't know, 75%. Burke: Not good enough. He's my patient now. That okay with you, Dr. K? Kerr: Absolutely. Paeds Intern: (quietly and indignantly to her resident) He can take our patient? Kerr: He's an attending. Burke: Which means I can do whatever I want. (returns to parents) Mr and Mrs Johnson, I'm Dr. Burke, head of cardio, we're going to run some tests and give you an answer within the hour. Grey, (to parents) excuse me, (leaves with Meredith) I want an EKG, a chest x-ray, and an ECHO. I don't have all day. Meredith: You're a busy man. Burke: I'm a busy man. They walk off, past Izzie. Izzie: (to secretary) Anybody else? Woman: No. Izzie: Good. I need a bed. (sees the Chinese woman leaving) Ms. Lu? Izzie follows the woman outside. It's nighttime, and pouring rain. She stops before going into the rain. Izzie: Ms Lu! Ms Lu, wait, Ms Lu! (Ms Lu beckons) What is it? Izzie follows her across the street. Inside a junkyard, Ms Lu is talking to a girl, who's clutching a rag to her forehead. Ms Lu sees that Izzie's come over, and the girl shows Izzie her forehead. Izzie: Oh my god. She's got some kind of cut, and there's dried blood all over her forehead. Izzie comes over to take a closer look. Izzie: It's okay. It's okay. (to Ms Lu) I'll help. A few minutes later, Izzie is examining it with a penlight. Izzie: It's deep. I need to clean it out...(she makes hand motions, trying to get the message across). Girl: Machine, it broke in the factory, it fall. Izzie: You speak English. Just, if you could come inside...(takes girl's arm) Girl: No, no, no, no inside, no, no, jail. Mrs Lu is getting worried, but Izzie is undeterred. Izzie: Jail? She came inside... Girl: She green card! Me, no. Izzie: You're illegal. That's okay, we don't have to tell them that, I just need to get you inside, I have to sew that up. Girl: No, no inside. No inside. Izzie: Please. I promise, I promise you won't go to jail. You just - it's raining, please, come inside. The girl and Ms Lu get upset and start speaking their native language, getting up to leave. Izzie: Okay! Okay. Okay. Not inside. They sit back down. Izzie: Okay, wait here. Wait. I'll come back. I'll be back. Cut to Meredith walking down a hallway. She sees Burke. Meredith: Well? Burke: It's a birth defect. Tetrology affirmed lower pulmonary artresia. You were right. I'm booking the OR for tomorrow. Meredith: Thank you for backing me up on this. Burke: Whoa, whoa, wait, whoa. You were right. But if you ever pull a stunt like that again...going to the parents behind a doctor's back? Trying to steal a patient from another service? I will make your residency year hell on earth. We see him leave to speak to the parents. Meredith looks happy. Cut to George and the code team. Cut to Cristina getting hugged, then walking with Alex, then cut to Izzie stuffing her pockets with medical supplies, then Derek doing paperwork, checking on and sitting with Alison. Cut to Izzie leaving the supplies room, cut to George saying �damnit' as they lose another patient, and walking out, cut back to Izzie, now dabbing at the girl's cut. Izzie: Okay. You're all sewn up. That's pretty good; I could've done a better job if I had more light. You might have a scar. Girl: Is good. Izzie: You're going to need to come back, in five days. Okay? I'm going to need to check the wound and remove the stitches. Okay? Here's my pager number, on this card, right here, okay? We'll meet, right back here, okay? You have to come back, but you can't tell anybody that I helped you outside of the hospital or I might lose my job. Understand? Girl: Yes. Come back, and don't tell. Izzie: (smiling) Yes. Okay, that's it, I'm done. You can go. I'll see you in five days. Girl: Yes, see you. They walk off, Izzie packs up. The older woman comes back and takes Izzie's hand, still speaking her own language but obviously thanking her. Izzie: Thank you. Back inside the hospital, Burke has come over to Bailey. Burke: Do you think I'm too competent? Bailey: No. Burke: Don't lie. Bailey: You are my boss. Burke: All right then, anything you say in the next thirty seconds is free, starting now. Bailey: I think you're cocky, arrogant, bossy and pushy, you also have a god complex, you never think about anybody but your damn self - Burke: But I - Bailey: But what? I still have 22 more seconds, I am not done. Burke raises his eyebrows, looking sorry he asked but thoughtful. Cut to locker room. Cristina: I need a drink, a man or a massage. Or a drunken massage by a man. What's wrong with you? George: Lost five patients on the code team today. I feel like the angel of death. Cristina: George, 95% of all code patients can't be revived. Most of them are seriously dad before you even get there. George: What?! (sounding upset) Why didn't you tell me that when I was going on and on about how great it was going to be? Cristina: Because. You're George, and I'm Cristina. (leaves) Paeds Intern: His heart surgery is scheduled for the morning. I really did think I was right, you know. Meredith: I know. We almost never are. We're interns. We're not supposed to be right. And when we are, it's completely shocking. Paeds Intern: Are you - I mean, being an intern, do you feel... Meredith: Terrified. 100% of the time. Paeds Intern: Good, it's not just me. Meredith: No. Cut to Meredith going to see Alison. Derek's still there. Meredith: How is she? Derek: No change. Meredith: Have you been here all night? Derek: Mm-hmm. Yup. You know I have four sisters? Very girly, tons of kids. If I was in a coma, they'd all be here. I'd want them here. Having no one? Can't imagine that. Meredith: I can. Derek: What're you talking about, what about your mother? She'd be in here ordering all the surgeons around. She'd fly these cowboys in from Prague to do these amazing medical procedures. Meredith: That's true. I do have my mother. Derek: So we're kissing but we're not dating? Meredith: I knew that was going to come up. Derek: Don't get me wrong, I like the kissing. I'm all for the kissing. More kissing, I say. Meredith: I have no idea what that was about. Derek: Is it going to happen again? Because if it is, I need to bring breath mints. Put a condom in my wallet. Meredith: Shut up now. (Derek laughs) There was this baby up in the nursery. He's brand new. No one's neglected him or damaged him yet. How do we get from there to here? She's wearing my shoes and someone's bat the crap out of her, and she's got nobody. Beeping. Alison's in trouble. Meredith hits an alarm on the wall. Derek: Her ICP's double, get OR! Put her in for a craniotomy. Fadeout to later. Meredith's leaning against the wall, Derek walks past, turns back to her. Derek: Hey. I, uh, I had to leave her skull flap off, till the pressure in her brain goes down. Meredith: She's not going to make it, is she? Derek: She's going to be fine. Meredith: If she ever wakes up. Derek: (nodding) If she ever wakes up. Cut to later on. Derek: Dr Burke! I'm off at six, you want to get that drink we talked about? Burke: No, I don't think so. Derek: Well, what about tomorrow night? Burke: Shepherd, you should know that Richard promised chief to both of us. (Derek doesn't really react) But you knew that already. Derek: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Burke: Mm. You're not the enemy, you're just the competition. They walk off. Cut to Meredith signing for the penis. Older woman: So here is where you put the signature, down here, the initials. Meredith: Mmm. Okay. Webber: It...just says that the, um...the... Older woman: Penis. Webber: (laughing) I'm a doctor, it shouldn't be weird to say this, but I used to change her diapers... Meredith: I get it. Webber: It just says that it was never out of sight. Meredith: There you go. One penis. Webber: Officer. (police officer takes it and they go) Cut to OR for the baby. Burke: We'll be using a medium approach for a trans-ventricular repair with a right ventriculostomy. Let's open him up. Grey! Meredith: Yes, sir? Burke: Go scrub in. When we've finished cracking the baby's chest, I'll let you hold the clamp. Meredith: Seriously? Burke: Don't make me change my mind. Meredith: I'm going. Cut to Derek entering the rpist's room. He whacks the end of the bed to wake him up. Derek: I have good news and bad news. The good news is, Dr. Bailey stopped your bleeding. The bad news is, we're giving your penis to the cops. Have a nice life. He leaves and the rpist realises he's cuffed to the bed. Cut to Cristina and Alex giving more results. Cristina: The results of your labs were clean; the tumour's benign, you can go home today. The patient hugs her husband, who then goes for Cristina. Cristina acts fast and shoves Alex into his way. Alex gets a nice big hug, and Cristina leaves, pleased with herself. Cut to the OR, Meredith's holding the clamp. Meredith VO: At some point, you have to make a decision. (cut to her watching the babies again) Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. (we see the other interns are with her) Okay, fine, George and Izzie, you can move into the house. George: YES! Yes! Izzie: I can't believe you caved! (George and Izzie hug) George: Yes! (George and Izzie go, dancing) Meredith: I can't believe I caved. Cristina: I blame the babies. Toxic. Meredith VO: So, you can waste your life, drawing lines, (cut to Derek, on the phone outside Alison's room. Suddenly, he puts down the phone, mouth open. He's seen something) Or, you can live your life crossing them. (Low angle sht of Alison. Her eyelids are fluttering. They open and she sees Derek). Derek: Welcome back. Cut to Meredith leaving in her same-as-Alison's shoes. She walks over to the elevator...where Derek is waiting. Meredith VO: But there are some lines... Derek: So. It's intense...this thing I have for, ah, ferry boats I mean. Meredith VO: ...that are way too dangerous to cross. Meredith: (turns to smile at Derek) I'm so taking the stairs this time. Elevator dings. Derek: No self-control. It's sad. Really. Cut to Meredith leaving. She runs to catch up with Izzie, George and Cristina. Meredith VO: But here's what I know. If you're willing to take the chance...the view from the other side is spectacular. Fadeout.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x02 - The First Cut is the Deepest"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x03: Winning a Battle, Losing the wr Original Airdate: 4/10/2005 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Tony Goldwyn Meredith's in bed. It's 4:37am and raining. Meredith VO: We live out our lives on the surgical unit. Seven days a week, fourteen hours a day. We're together more than we're apart - aaah! (Izzie is standing at the foot of her bed) Izzie: George's room is bigger than mine. Meredith gets up but trips and falls flat on her face. She limps away. Meredith VO: After a while - Izzie: I have more clothes, I should have the bigger room. Meredith VO: the ways of residency - George: I got here first. Izzie: It's Meredith's house, she should decide. Meredith VO: become the ways of life. George: My room is like, two inches bigger than yours! Izzie: You have a bigger closet! George: So? Why is everything always a competition? I - Meredith VO: Number one: always keep score. (Izzie and George argue in the background while she looks for clean clothes) Number two: do whatever you can to outsmart the other guy. George: ...put your clothes somewhere else! Izzie: Everywhere else is filled with Meredith's mom's boxes. George: Meredith? When is your mom coming back to town anyway? Because maybe we can put her boxes in storage. Izzie: Or unpack a few things, make this place a little more homey. Maybe some throw pillows and lamps, a few paintings. George: Oh, paintings would be nice. Izzie: Yeah! You have all this amazing stuff just packed away. In the back hall, I found this box with like a hundred tapes of your mother performing these amazing medical procedures. George: Really? We should watch them. Meredith, you want to watch - (Meredith's door slams in their faces; a moment later, it re-opens. Meredith takes Izzie's coffee and shuts the door again) George: Meredith, do you want some privacy? Meredith slumps against the other side of the door, holding her coffee. Meredith VO: Number three? Don't make friends with the enemy. Cut to Bailey and Shepherd standing on a street corner. Derek: Morning Dr. Bailey. Bailey: (holding up a hand) Shut up. Derek: You realise that I'm an attending and you're only a resident? So you work for me, right? Bailey: I know I've forgotten something, something is happening today, I know I should know what it is, but I just can't...(shakes her head) Derek: All right, nice talking to you Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Something...right in front of my face... Shepherd walks forward to cross the road, Bailey gasps and grabs him. Bailey: Doctor! We see several bike riders race past, two crash. Bailey: Now I remember! Dr Shepherd, watch out. The bike riders aren't professionals and are kicking each other etc. Another one crashes. Cut to the hospital, Bailey with her interns. Bailey: Fools on bikes klling themselves. Natural selection is what it is. Alex: (quietly to George) So what's up with the nzi, is she off her meds? George: You never heard of the race? sht of a nice, neat OR schedule. Webber, Burke and Shepherd are standing in front of it. Webber: Excellent board. Well-timed, balanced, efficient - if all goes well, we'll have an early night. Bailey: Chief! dad baby bike race started twenty minutes ago. Webber: All right, people! dad baby bike race day! Intern wipes the schedule off. George: Every year this bar - Meredith: The dad Baby Bar. George: Every year, they hold this underground bike race. Izzie: Don't you wonder why someone would name a bar something so disgusting? Cristina: Keep your panties on, Nancy Drew. George: The race is completely illegal, and - Meredith: Crazy, a bunch of bike messengers racing against traffic trying to bat each other for free shts of tequila. Alex: All-out, no holds barred competition, sounds like fun. Izzie: Yeah, you would think that. George: The race doesn't even have any rules. Except eye gouging - no eye gouging. Cristina: Oh great, we're going to be trapped in the Pit bandaging up idiots when we could be up in the OR? George: What kind of people engage in a race that has, as its only rule, that you can't rip out the eyeballs of another human being? Alex: Men, Georgie, men. Bailey: I need someone to get up to the OR floor, the Chief needs a right hand. Everyone's hands sht up. Bailey: George: Meredith VO: And number four: everything, everything is a competition. Bailey: Okay people, the rules of trauma. Don't mingle with the ER interns, they don't know their ass from their oesophagus. Sew fast, discharge fast, take bodies up to the OR yesterday. Don't let me catch you fighting over patients. Got it? Come on, let's go. The interns run and jostle for position. We see injured bike riders everywhere. Cristina: Oh, it's like candy, but with blood, which is so much better. Izzie: Oh my god... Cristina: Mine! Izzie: I saw him first! Meredith VO: Whoever said that winning wasn't everything... We see a guy with nails in his side. Meredith: Ooh. I'll take that guy. Alex: No, you'll have to bat me to him first. (they run for him) Meredith VO: ...never held a scalpel. Opening sequence. Alex: Heads he's mine, tails he's yours. Meredith: Why do you get to be heads? Alex: Because I have a head, and you are tail. Meredith: Excuse me. (Meredith closes the curtain on the patient) How do you make everything dirty? (Alex flips it) Ha. Tails. There are plenty of other cases. Alex: So go get one. I was here first. Meredith: I am not backing down so I can do sutures all day while you're up in the OR. This is a surgical case, and you know it. Alex: It's superficial. I mean, it's cool, but it's superficial. Meredith: How do you know those things didn't rupture his peritoneum? Alex: Because he's sitting up, and he's sitting there talking to us! (guy pulls the curtain back) Guy: �Allo. Excuse me, I was wondering if you could take these out, and sew me up, so I can go and win my race? Meredith: Well, we can't just pull them out, I mean, we ought to - (Alex does just that.) do some tests - Guy: Oh, wicked. Meredith: Are you out of your mind? Alex: It's a superficial wound. Sew him up, and let him finish his race. Meredith: You - you - Guy: Good man. Cut to Cristina, Izzie and Derek. Cristina: Unidentified John Doe, mid-thirties pedestrian, ht by a motorist swerving to avoid a bike, GCS 3, pupils fixed and dilated, atropine given for a pulse in the forties, BP 183 over 112...[medical jargon] Izzie: ...and a gram of Phenytoin. Burke: Is he corked? Derek: Looks like. Burke: The bike race claims its first victim. Burke: I ought to make my Triple A repair after all. Izzie: Uh, Dr. Shepherd, he's not going to the OR? Derek: No. Do an EEG, and confirmatory tests. If he doesn't respond, six hours. Declare him. (leaves) Izzie: Declare him? Declare him what? Cristina: Brain dad. Cut to Webber cleaning up. George: (pulling on a mask) Sir, Dr. Bailey sent me in to assist you, should I scrub in? Webber: No, I'm stuck here all day. I need you on the floor, monitoring my pre and post-op patients. George: Oh. Webber: You got a problem with that, O'Malley? George: Oh, uh, no sir. Webber: Oh, a mate of mine in 4451, Lloyd Mackie? Give him whatever he needs. George: Yes sir. Cut to a patient, in his bed, lighting up a cigarette. George: Mr Mackie! No smoking! There's no smoking Mr Mackie: Why not? George: Oh my god, you're in a hospital. Mr Mackie: Your point being... George: I don't know if you've listened to the surgeon-general lately, say in the past twenty years, but smoking is bad. Smoking will kll you. Mr Mackie: Liver cancer will kll me. Smoking will just speed up the process. George: You're at the top of the donor list for a new liver. There's hope. Mr Mackie: Sweetheart, I've been at the top of the donor list for eight months. I'm not in the batter's cage. I'm in a dugout, about to be traded. George: You like baseball? Mr Mackie: No. George: Oh. Um, well, um, the chief wanted me to look in on you. Mr Mackie: Richard's a dear old friend. He's been my doctor for thirty years. George: Well, whatever you need, I'm your man. Just name it. Mr Mackie: I'm sure I'll think of something. Cut to Izzie and Cristina with their patient. Cristina: There's no corneal reflexes. Izzie: It's been fifty-five minutes. If he doesn't respond to these tests in the next five hours, what? We're supposed to just stand here, and watch him die? Cristina: If he doesn't respond to these tests, it's because he's already dad. Izzie: Technically. Legally. Cristina: Actually, Izzie, actually dad. Izzie: He's breathing, he has a heartbeat. Cristina: Look at his EEG. There's no higher brain function. He'll never talk, move or think again. There's no one in there. Think like a doctor, Izzie. Izzie: He could wake up. What about a miracle? There are medical miracles, you know. Derek: (standing in the doorway) I know. You're right. Miracles happen. People do wake up, that's why we do a series of tests over a set number of hours, so when we call time of death, we know that we've done everything in our power to make sure it's actually his time of death. But there isn't going to be any miracles. This is the hard part. To stand around as surgeons, and not cut. That's what �do no harm' means. Cristina: Wish he'd just go to the light already, so I can get on another case. Izzie's shocked. Cristina: Oh, I'm the devil because I'd rather be in surgery, instead of standing watch over the death squad? It's depressing. Izzie: Look at his sneakers. They're brand new. And somebody sewed this tear in his shirt, and he has one of those electronic key cards. He belongs to someone. An hour ago, he was out there, alive. To simply stand here and wait for him to die... Cristina: Would be a waste of life. Izzie: Exactly. Cristina: It would be a waste of organs. (leaves. Izzie's shocked at her again) Cut to Meredith sewing up Viper. Viper: Ah, you got a nice touch. And by the way, you are a rocking babe. Meredith: Seriously, do you actually think you have a sht here? Viper: I like to think I've got a sht anywhere. Meredith: Look, you really have to let me take you for some tests, and a CT. You could have internal bleeding. Viper: No thank you, I've got a race to get back to. Meredith: Why? You can't win now anyway. Viper: Doesn't mean I can't cross that finish line. There's a party at the finish line. Do you want to meet me there? Meredith: One test. A CT. I'll have you out of here in an hour. Viper: Can't do it, gotta go. Meredith: Okay, well, you realise that you're leaving against medical advice and I strongly urge you to stay. Viper: The frat guy said I could go. Meredith: The frat guy is an ass. Okay, well, you have to sign an AMA form. Viper: Darlin', I will do anything you want me to. Meredith: What is it with you guys and your need to dirty everything up? Viper: I don't know. Maybe it's just testosterone, eh? Meredith: Maybe. You might want to see a doctor about that, too. Viper: Come here (takes the form and signs) There. He gets up, takes a few steps towards the door, turns back, grabs Meredith and kisses her. Viper: That was for good luck. (leaving) Don't worry, darling, you'll see me again. Meredith: For your sake, I hope not! Meredith shakes her head and begins to strip the bed. She looks up and sees Derek standing outside. Meredith: (as Derek enters) What do you want? Derek: You make out with patients now? Meredith: What are you, jealous? Derek: I don't get jealous. Meredith: We had sex, once. Derek: And we kissed, in an elevator. Meredith: And we kissed in an elevator, once! Derek: No, seriously, I mean come on, go out with me. Meredith: No. Derek: You know, I almost died today. Yeah, I came like (gestures) this close. How would you feel if I died? And you didn't get a chance to go out with me? Meredith: Get over yourself already. Derek: Come on. Meredith: It's the chase, isn't it? Derek: What? Meredith: The thrill of the chase. I've been wondering to myself, why are you so hell bent on getting me to go out with you? You know you're my boss, you know it's against the rules, you know I keep saying no. It's the chase. Derek: Well, it's fun, isn't it? Meredith: You see? This is a game to you. But not to me. Because unlike you, I still have something to prove. (leaves) Cut to Bailey doing surgery and Izzie and Cristina coming in. Bailey: I know you see me resecting this bowel, do I strike you as someone who enjoys multitasking? Cristina: We have a John Doe, in three hours, we have to declare him brain dad. We want to harvest his organs. Bailey: So why you wasting time on this? You know how many patients we have downstairs. Izzie: If he dies - and he could still live, you know - his death should mean something. Bailey: And you want a harvest surgery. Cristina: I want to save lives. (Bailey looks derisive) Okay, I want a harvest surgery. Bailey: Getting organs from a John Doe is a long sht. Without ID, you can't contact the family, without the family, you can't get consent to harvest the organs. Let the poor man die in peace. Izzie: But if we can find the family - Bailey: And get consent. Cristina: We could harvest the organs? Bailey: If you find the family. Izzie and Cristina hurry away. Cut to Alex walking over to a desk where George is. Alex: What're you doing? George: Hiding. There's this VIP patient, he likes me. Alex: Well, that's good, right? George: He likes me likes me. Alex: Go for it, man, get yours. I'm down with the rainbow. (George looks up, wide-eyed) Oh. Are you not gay? George: No. Alex: Really? (looks bemused) Dude, sorry. He leaves as Izzie and Cristina come up to the other desk. George: (holding out a disk) Cristina? She comes over and he drops the disk. George: Do you - do you think - does Meredith think I'm gay? Cristina: Are you? George: No. Cristina: Really? George looks frustrated. A woman comes over to Izzie and Cristina returns there. Izzie: I found this on a John Doe, it's a hotel key card? I've called the police and they're going to send someone over, maybe they can figure out what hotel he's staying at, get his ID from there. Could you... Woman: I'll make sure the police get it. Izzie: Okay. It's just, it's really important. We only have a few hours before we have to declare him and I'd really like to find his family. Woman: You want their permission for organ donation? (George looks up, interested) Izzie: I just - really want to find them. (leaves. Cristina looks after her, surprised, and then turns to go) George: You have a potential donor? (Cristina nods) What's his blood type? Cristina: Uh, O-neg. (George pulls out a folder) Cut to Izzie looking at her patient. Izzie: Okay, well, I know you probably can't hear me, and you're feeling this big push to go towards the light, where everything is all haloes and all-you-can-eat buffets and stuff, and I mean, sharing your organs is really great and all, but I think you have a family. I can feel it. So I think it'd be great if you could do me a favour, and get better. Just ...live. So you think you could give that a sht for me? Alarms start going off. His pulse is dropping. Izzie: Oh no. Meredith! (Meredith comes in) He's crashing. Meredith: Well, what the hell are you doing, call code! Izzie: I can't, I'm not supposed to, he's brain dad. Meredith: Well Izzie, if he's brain dad, you have to let him go. Izzie: No. It's only been five hours and thirty-three minutes, he's supposed to get six hours. Meredith: Well, we can't do anything to make him live, it's not our place to make that call. Izzie: He's a person, we're doctors, we should have every right to make that call. We can't just stand here and do nothing while he dies. He has a right to the next twenty-seven minutes. Meredith: Screw it. I'll get the dopamine, you get the blood, we'll transfuse him. Cityscape, then cut to George examining Mackie. George: Do you feel any pain here? Mackie: No. You know, you really do have beautiful eyelashes. George: Um, thank you. Uh, what about here? Mackie: No. And nice eyes. Kind. I like a man with kind eyes. George: Really, you think I have kind eyes? Mackie: Mm-mmm. George: (pulling Mackie's singlet back down and writing on the chart) I mean, uh, you can, um... Mackie: What are you examining me for? George: You know, just routine, medical stuff. You're doing very well. Mackie: Because I'm enjoying the view. George: Okay...well...I gotta go. Mackie waves. Cut to Izzie and Meredith going upstairs. Meredith: He's sab. Cristina: (coming downstairs) For now. I had a radiologist look at his chest, apparently he has a traumatic aortic injury. He's going to rupture and bleed out. Izzie: So he needs surgery. Cristina: If he's going to remain a viable organ donor, yeah. Izzie: If he's going to live. Cristina: Izzie... Izzie: No! I'm not giving up on him. He has the surgery, he lives longer, that's the point. So I'm going to help find the family, you guys find a way to get him into surgery. (continues upstairs) Cristina: She's vice-president of fantasyland. Meredith: So who do we go to, Bailey? Cristina: No, we need to go higher than Bailey. (they start upstairs) Cut to Burke in the men's room. Meredith opens the door. Meredith: Dr. Burke? Burke: Hello? Meredith: (closing the door) Okay. Cristina: (opening the door) Dr Burke, um, I know you're busy, but our John Doe needs an aortic repair. Burke: The guy from this morning? Isn't he legally dad? Cristina: Well, yeah, he's kinda still around? We gave him two units PRBCs and put him on pressers. Burke: On whose orders? They shut the door and open it again. Meredith: Mine. Burke: You gave a brain-dad John Doe a blood transfusion without consulting anyone. And now you want me to repair his heart. Cristina: Well, yes. Burke: You do enjoy crossing the line, don't you? Meredith: He is an excellent candidate for organ donation. Burke: I am a surgeon. I save lives. This guy is already dad. Now, this is the men's room. Either whip one out or close the door. (They close the door). Cut to Meredith talking to Derek. Derek: You're asking my advice? Meredith: Yes. Derek: Now who's chasing? Meredith: Not funny. This is important. Derek: Okay. You want to get around Burke? You gotta find a way to get the chief involved. Cut to George eating a sandwich. Izzie, Cristina and Meredith are standing in front of him in a line. George: What'd I do? Meredith: How close a match for the liver is your guy to our John Doe? George: Very. Same type, same size. UNOS couldn't find a better match, why? Izzie: And he's the chief's VIP, right? George: Right. Cristina: How much would you kll to be in on a transplant surgery? George: You underestimate me. I'm not a baby, I'm your colleague. You don't have to manipulate me, if you want something, all you have to do is ask. Izzie: We want you to go over Burke's head to the chief. George: Ask me something easier. Cut to Webber coming out of a door. George is waiting. George: Sir? Webber: O'Malley. How's Mackie? George: Fine. Sir, actually, that's what I want to talk to you about. I-I kind of think that - we - uh, me, and the other interns, we think - we're - we're not - Webber: O'Malley, I'm not getting any younger. George: We found Mackie a liver. Meredith: We are so going to hell. We see that Cristina, Izzie and Meredith are watching George and Webber from down the hall. Meredith: Burke is sending us straight to hell. Cristina: On an express train. Izzie: If it works. Alex comes up. Alex: What're you doing? Izzie, Meredith and Cristina in unison: Nothing. Alex sees them watching George and Webber. Burke walks past and Webber stops him, starts talking to him. Izzie: (grinning) Yes. Webber is gone and Burke looks at George, who leaves immediately. He turns to look at them. Cristina: Oh, crap. They hurry away. Alex stays, and when Burke turns to leave, goes after him. Alex: Dr. Burke! Dr. Burke! Cut to open heart surgery. Alex is assisting Burke. Alex: Excellent work, sir, excellent. Burke: Flawless. It's a shame he's brain dad, if he wasn't, he'd be on his feet in a few days. Alex: I'm amazed at what skill your hands have, it's ... Cristina: (watching with Izzie, Meredith and George) I seriously hate that guy. Meredith: Alex is vermin. That surgery is ours. Izzie: At least Burke is doing the surgery. I don't care about Alex. George? You did good. George: I'm going to have to dodge Burke for the rest of my career. He could kll me and make it look like an accident. Woman: (entering) The police called. They've identified your John Doe, his wife is on the way. Cut to Izzie watching the John Doe. Derek brings a young woman into the room. Woman: Oh my god. Kevin... Derek: It's okay to... Woman: Oh my god. Derek: This is Dr. Stevens. Izzie and the woman nod. Derek: If you have any questions, please, please call me. (leaves) Woman: Is there still a chance? Izzie: We can hold off till morning, but if there's still no change, we'd...we'd like to talk to you about organ donation. Cut to Webber going to see Mackie. George is in the background. Webber: (shaking Mackie's shoulder lightly) Mackie? How're we treating you? Mackie: Oh, fine. Except that beautiful boy won't let me smoke. You should reprimand him. Make him change bedpans. Webber: (laughing) Mackie. That beautiful boy may have found you a liver. Mackie stops smiling, glances up at Webber and then to George. His faces begins to break up and he looks away, trying desperately not to cry while Webber pats his shoulder. George leaves. Cut to Meredith in civvies, at her locker. Her pager's beeping. Alex bursts in. Alex: God, I smell good. You know what it is? (turns to Meredith) It's the smell of open heart surgery. (breathes in deeply) It's awesome. It is awesome. You gotta smell me (coming up behind Meredith and leaning onto her) Meredith: I don't want to smell you. Alex: (nuzzling her hair) Oh, yes you do. Meredith: (turning around and grabbing him, pushing him against the lockers by his shirt) You have got to be kidding me! Okay. I have more important things to deal with than you. I have roommates, and boy problems, and family problems. (Alex yawns and glances around) You want to act like a little frat boy bitch, that's fine. You want to take credit for your saves, and everybody else's? That's fine too. Just stay out of my face. (Derek opens the door, Meredith grabs Alex by the chin, making him look at her) And for the record, you smell like crap. She turns and they both see Derek. Meredith goes back to her locker. Derek motions as if to say, what happened? Alex: She attcked me. Meredith moves to really attck him Derek: Meredith, Meredith, Meredith! (Derek grabs her arms and she lets him push her back) You know, you might want to leave. Before I change my mind and let her bat you to a pulp with her tiny ineffectual fists. He pushes Alex out the door and closes it while Alex pulls a face at Meredith. Derek sighs. Meredith looks at him. Derek: What? Meredith: Nothing. (pulls out a jacket) It's just...(gives him a long look. He nods a little, encouragingly) Nothing. She closes her locker and makes as if to leave, he opens the door for her and she looks at him again for a few seconds, then strides away. He looks upward and sighs. Cut to Meredith entering her apartment. Izzie and George are going through video tapes. Izzie: Ooh, this one is skin grafting! George: Skin grafting? No way! I've never seen that done before. Meredith: Are those my mother's surgical tapes? George: We should watch the skin grafting one first. Meredith: Where did all this stuff come from? Izzie: Oh, I unpacked some of your mother's things. I was upset, and when I'm upset I like to nest. Meredith stares, then starts taking pictures down. Izzie: Ooh! Hemipelvectomy. George: I think we should watch this one first. Meredith: No. No. We're not watching my mother's surgery tapes, we're not unpacking boxes, and we're not having long conversations where we celebrate the moments of our lives. And use a coaster! George: ...I ordered Chinese food. Meredith: (going upstairs) I hate Chinese food! Izzie and George exchange looks and giggle. Cut to Cristina and Meredith walking towards the hospital. Meredith: They're everywhere. All the time. Izzie's all perky, and George does this thing where he's helpful and considerate, they share food and they say things and they move things, and they breathe. (whimpers) They're like happy. Cristina: Kick them out. Meredith: I can't kick them out. They just moved in. I asked them to move in. Cristina: So what, you're just going to repress everything into some deep dark twisted place until one day you snap and kll them? Meredith: Yup. Cristina: This is why we are friends. Alex comes up behind them as they enter the hospital. Alex: Why is the nzi making us stay in the Pit two days in a row? Meredith: Leftovers. Alex: Leftovers? Meredith: Gotta get the cyclists who were too drunk or too stupid or too scared to get themselves to a hospital yesterday. Alex: While meanwhile, she gets to do a freakin' organ harvest. Cristina: Oh, that kills you, doesn't it? Alex: What? Cristina: That two women got the harvest. Alex: No, it kills me that anyone got the harvest but me. Boobs do not factor into this equation. Unless you want to show me yours. Meredith and Cristina exchange looks. They're waiting for the elevator. Meredith: I'm going to become a lesbian. Cristina: Me too. The elevator dings but they go for the stairs. Cut to Cristina talking to Kevin's wife and little girl. Cristina: This form simply says that you consent to the donation of your husband's major organs - heart, lungs, liver and kidneys. (The woman signs) Now I need to ask you a few questions. Are you willing to donate his corneas? Mrs. Davidson: You want his eyes? Cristina: Um, corneal transplants can give someone back their sight. Mrs Davidson: I suppose that's okay. (signs) sht of the little girl and then of Bailey, who's leaning against the wall looking a little sad. Cristina: What about his skin? Mrs Davidson: What? (trying to hold it together) Cristina: It's used to help burn victims. Mrs Davidson: You want to cut off his skin? What about the funeral? You want me to have a funeral, and have people look at him, have his daughter look at her father and he doesn't have any skin? (voice breaking up) It's his skin. Cristina leaves the room. The mother and daughter hug; Bailey goes after Cristina. Bailey: What are you doing? Cristina: I'm not a people person. Bailey: No kidding. Cristina: I-I can't do that, I can't talk to the families of patients, I'm sorry. Bailey: What's his name? Cristina: Who? Bailey: The patient. What's his name? Cristina: Kevin Davidson. Bailey: Remember that. Not gorked guy, not John Doe, Kevin Davidson. He's someone's husband. Someone's son. Not a collection of body parts for you to harvest, a person. Now no one said this was easy. Cristina re-enters the room and we see her start to talk again. Cut to George examining Mackie. Mackie: I owe you George. George: No, you don't owe me anything. I'm just happy we found a liver. Mackie: Well, when I get out of here, how about I take you and my new liver out for a night on the town? What do you say? George: Uh, Mr. Mackie, no offense or anything, um, you're, very handsome, but I, um, I'm not - I mean, you're not my type, because...you're a man. Mackie: (laughing) George, I never thought you were guy. George: You didn't? Mackie: Oh, child, please. You? Gay? I'm sick, George, not blind. George: Then...why...? Mackie: Because dying is a get-out-of-jail-free card. I can be as bold as I want, and there's nothing anybody can say about it. So I flirt. Haven't you ever been attracted to someone you know you couldn't have? George: Well - at - no. Mackie: What's her name. George: There's no - I'm not - you know, this is really, uh, not...Meredith. Mackie: Meredith. To be young and in love. (holds out a hand, but George doesn't take it) Let's go get that - George: No, I didn't - (Mackie holds up a hand) Cut to organ harvest preparation with Izzie, Cristina, the patient and Burke. Burke: I never liked harvesting. Cristina: Why? Burke: Like I said, I'm a surgeon. I save lives. This ends one. Izzie: I know you tried, so no hard feelings, okay? Cristina looks at her. Izzie: I was just... Burke: You were saying goodbye. Cut to Meredith and Alex working in Trauma. Viper is waiting in a chair. Meredith: What's Viper doing here? Alex: Probably crashed his bike. Again. Meredith: How long has he been waiting? Alex: Don't know, I'm busy on real cases. He's all yours. Meredith: Viper? Viper? Viper is holding his side and not looking at her. He starts to cough. Meredith: Are you okay? He tries to get up and she runs to him, but he falls. He's unconscious and blood is coming out of his mouth. Meredith: Viper! She lifts up his shirt. His stitches have ripped open and the area around them has swelled up to the size of a small melon. Cut to Viper on a gurney. Meredith is sitting on top, trying to hold his wound closed, and talking to a nurse. Alex is there. Meredith: Call up to the OR and tell them we're coming. Page Dr. Bailey. Nurse: Right away. Alex is staring at Viper, hands on hips, a bit stunned. Meredith: Alex! Push the damn gurney! Nurse: Clear the way. Coming through. Alex: Somebody get the elevator! Meredith: Hurry. I don't know how long I can keep this wound closed. Elevator doors close. They watch the level numbers light up. Meredith: Move faster, damnit. They arrive and go into the OR. Meredith is still straddling Viper. Bailey: Well, this is a new one. Somebody get her off my patient. (Meredith climbs down) Meredith, go get cleaned up and scrub in, Alex, get back downstairs. Alex: Yeah, but I helped. Bailey: Helped! They tell me down in the Pit that you only want to take the hot cases. In every pack of interns there's always one fool that's running around trying to show off, and Alex, this time that fool is you. Get out. (he leaves) Somebody get me something to stand on, lower this table. The mountain's going to have to come to me. Cut to Mackie going into surgery. Anaesthetist: Count backwards from ten for me. Mackie: You're a good friend. The best. Webber: Shut up and count backwards already, Mack. Mackie: Ten...nine...eight...seven...ssseeh... Cut to Izzie and Cristina scrubbing in. Izzie: I'm not going to stay. Cristina: It's your job. You have to. Izzie: You're better at this part than me. I don't want to watch him get taken apart. Look at the vultures. Waiting to pick him clean. Cristina: Every last one of them represents someone, somewhere, who's going to live because of Kevin. (and I swear to God, Meredith says the next bit. Editing goof; she's not there) Here. Put it on. Webber and Burke enter. Webber: I'll be waiting next door when you're ready. (leaves) Burke: Where everyone's waiting. Okay, doctors. Let's get this over with. We see them operate. The organs are placed in plastic bags and special sealed containers which look, frankly, like blenders. The liver is placed on ice and George takes it. We see George hand it to Webber, who places it in Mackie. Back to the harvest, and alarmed beeping has commenced. The heart is being removed. Everyone packs up to go, but Izzie remains. Cristina looks back at her. Cristina: (concerned) Izzie? Izzie: I'm going to sew him up. For his family. Cristina helps her. Cut to them walking out to the family. Cristina: You do it. Izzie: What? Cristina: You do it. Izzie walks over. Izzie: Mrs Davidson? He's ready if you'd like to see him. We pan past Cristina looking pensive to Viper's friends, who are also waiting. Bailey and Meredith are walking out to see them. Bailey: This lovely group's his friends. Uh, you all belong to - (to Meredith) what's his name? Meredith: Viper. Bailey: Viper? Man: Yeah, we were in the race. Girl: How is he, is he okay? Bailey: Is he okay? No. No, he is not okay, at all. He hurled his body down a concrete mountain at full speed for no good reason. Yeah, I know you all pierce yourselves and smoke up and generally treat your bodies like your grungy asses can't break down to A, you want to k*ll yourselves, flying down a concrete mountain, go to it, but there are other people walking, people driving, people trying live their lives on that concrete mountain, and one of them got his brains scrambled today because one of you little sniffling no-good snot-rag - Meredith: Doctor Bailey - Bailey: Yeah, yeah so no, your friend Viper, as far as I'm concerned, is not okay. (stalks off) Meredith: She's, um, really tired, but, uh, Viper's going to make it. He's gonna live. Group: Cool. Thanks. Cut to Meredith packing up her stuff in the locker room. Derek comes in and shuts the door. Derek: It's not the chase. Meredith: What? Derek: You and me. It is not the thrill of the chase. It's not a game. It's...it's your tiny ineffectual fists. And your hair. Meredith: My hair? Derek: Smells good. And you're very, very bossy. Keeps me in line. Meredith: I'm still not going out with you. Derek: You say that now. (leaves) Cut to Mackie. Mackie: How'd it go? Webber: Very smoothly. Mackie: Damn. That means I'll have to quit smoking. George is there. He grasps Mackie's hand. Mackie: Ahhh, the pretty ones always come crawling back. Meredith VO: There's another way to survive this competition. A way that no one ever seems to tells you about. (Meredith is leaving for the day. She sees Viper with his friends and they smile at each other) One you have to learn for yourself. Number five: it's not about the race at all. There are no winners or losers. Victories are counted by the number of lives saved. Cityscape, then Meredith opening her front door. Izzie, Cristina and George are eating pizza, drinking beer and watching a surgical tape. Izzie: Okay, this is the best part, watch, this is where she pulls a block of skin down over the face. George: We were Meredith: Hi. George: - we were just - Cristina made us. Cristina looks incredibly unimpressed with that statement. Meredith VO: And once in a while, if you're smart, the life you save could be your own. Meredith: What are we watching? Ooh. (sitting down and taking some popcorn) This is the one where my mother - Izzie: Literally pulls this guy's face off! Meredith: Yeah. They watch for a few seconds and then Everyone: Augh! Cristina: (waving her slice of pizza towards the screen in amazement) Holy crap! Pan away and fade out.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x03 - Winning a Battle, Losing the w*r"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x04: No Man's Land Original Airdate: 4/17/2005 Written by: James D. Parriott Directed by: Adam Davidson (Opens seeing Meredith through a rain covered window into her bedroom) MVO: Intimacy is a four-syllable word for, "Here are my heart and soul. (Meredith is writing check to Roseridge home for extended care) MVO: Please grind them into hamburger and enjoy." (Meredith licks envelope) MVO: It's both desired and feared, (Izzie walks into bathroom, George is in the shower) MVO: difficult to live with... George: Uh, excuse me! Excuse me! (Izzie is brushing teeth and walks out) MVO: ...and impossible to live without. (George peeks out shower) George: Is that my toothbrush?! (Meredith is flipping through pictures and stops on one of little girl in wagon, with man and woman standing around it) MVO: Intimacy also comes attached to life's three R's: Relatives, romance and roommates. (Izzie walks in wearing her underwear and t-shirt and brushing her teeth) Izzie: Coffee? MVO: There are some things you can't escape. And other things you just don't want to know. Meredith (to Izzie): Hello, kitty. (Seattle scenes) (Screen flashes 4:30 am and siren wails in the background) (Seattle Grace parking lot, everyone getting out of Meredith's jeep) George: You don't understand. Me gonads, you ovaries. Izzie: Oh, that reminds me. We are out of tampons. George: You're parading through the bathroom in your underwear when I'm naked in the shower. Izzie: Can you add it to your list, please? George: What?! Izzie: Tampons Meredith: To the list, it's your turn. George (yelling): I am a man! I don't buy girl products! I don't want you walking in while I'm in the shower, and I don't want to see you in your underwear. Izzie: It doesn't bother me, ok? Look at me in my underwear, George. Take your time. It's no big deal. (Interns are entering hospital; car alarm beeps in the background) (SGH locker room, interns are standing around, getting dressed and ready for pre-rounds) Bailey: You are the first person they see in the morning. You say please. You say thank you. You apologize for waking them up. (Alex enters, late and gets a glare from Bailey) Bailey: You make them feel good about you. Why is that important? Cause then they'll talk to you and tell you what's wrong. Why is that important? Because then you can tell you're attending what they need to know during rounds. And why is that important? Because if you make your resident look bad, she'll trture you until you beg for your mama. Now get out there. I want pre-rounds done be 5:30 am. Alex (to Izzie): Morning, Dr. Model. Izzie: Dr. Evil Spawn. Alex: (shines light on Izzie stomach) Ooh, nice tat. They airbrush that out for that catalogs? Izzie: I don't know. What do they do for the 666 on your skull? Alex: Ooo Meredith (to Cristina): I'd better get good patients today. Yesterday I had two guys with colostomies who needed dressing changes every 15 minutes. Cristina: I'm gonna be in surgery. Today's my day. Meredith: On what? Cristina: Like I'd tell you. Meredith: What do you know? Cristina: I know that I was here at 4:00 and you didn't get here till 4:30. Meredith: Tell me. Cristina: No. I'm not the intern who's screwing an attending. Meredith: I am not screw... (Leaves locker room and runs into Derek) Meredith (to Derek): You're here early. Derek: I have a chordotomy at 5:00. I'll be out at 6:00. I thought I might buy your breakfast before your rounds. Meredith: I've already eaten. Derek: What'd you have? Meredith: None of your business. Derek: You a cereal person? Straight out of the box? Or all fruit and fiber-y? (He laughs) Pancakes? Do you like pancakes? Meredith: Fine, leftover grilled cheese. Curiosity satisfied? Derek: That's sad. It's pathetic. A good day starts with a good breakfast. Meredith: Look, I'm not being seen with you in this hospital. Learn it, live it. It's unprofessional. Derek: I'm just an attending getting to know one of his interns. Meredith: He slept with the intern Derek: Barely knew her. Meredith: And it should stay that way. Derek: You want me to be professional? I'll be professional. Meredith: That's what I want. Derek: Then that's what you get. Meredith: You're gonna be late for your chordotomy. Derek: Nice talking to you, Dr. Grey. (Bailey at desk) Bailey: Anyone seen the floor chart on the new admission? (Cristina opens door, flips on light to a room) Woman: You always come in like that, bang the light on? Cristina: You're Elizabeth Fallon? Liz: What does my chart say? Cristina: It says you used to be a nurse here. Liz: A scrub nurse Cristina: And you have abdominal mass consistent with pancreatic cancer. Liz: Oh, and you are hoping they're gonna give me a Whipple. Pancreatic duodectomy. This hospital sees those�maybe once every six months. That's why you got here at 4:30, huh? Cristina: 4:00 Liz: Grabbed my chart before anybody else could see it. Impress Dr. Burke with your pre-round exam so you'd be the logical intern for him to ask to scrub in. Ha-Ha! I know all the tricks, doctor. Cristina: Yang. Cristina Yang. Liz: I'll call you Cristina. You call me Nurse Fallon. (Scene: Izzie entering Mr. Humphrey's room, quietly) Izzie: My Humphrey? Mr. Humphrey, I'm sorry to wake you. Mr. Humphrey: Come on. What time is it? Izzie: Ten after 5. I'm sorry. I just need to do a brief exam. If you could sit up for one moment. Thanks. This might be a little bit cold, so just take a deep breath. If you could just take a deep breath. Mr. Humphrey: You're not a doctor. Izzie: I'm Dr. Stevens but you can call me Izzie. I'll be helping Dr. Bailey with your biopsy this morning. Mr. Humphrey: No, I don't think so, no. Izzie: Mr. Humphrey, this will just take a moment. (Mr. Humphrey digs around on nightstand.) Mr. Humphrey: No, get me Dr. Bailey or Dr. Victor. Izzie: I just need to do a brief� Mr. Humphrey: You don't need to do anything. Is this you? (Opens magazine to photo spread of Izzie in her underwear) Mr. Humphrey: Huh? Is this you? It is, isn't it? You know, get out of my room. Izzie: Mr. Humphrey� Mr. Humphrey: Get out of my room. (Izzie leaves) (George and Meredith walking through hallway) George: There need to be some rules. Meredith: So, what, we can walk around in our underwear on alternate Tuesdays, or you could see bras but not panties? Or are you talking Amish rules? Because if you think you're gonna get Izzie to cover herself� George: The amount of flesh exposed is not the point. You have to do something. It's your house. Meredith: It's my mother's house. George: Meredith� Meredith: Do you like Izzie? Is that what this is about? Do you have a crush on Izzie? George: Izzie? No. I don't like Izzie. Izzie�no. She's not the one I'm attracted to. Meredith: Not the one. So, there's a one. George: This is not...Look, there just have to be some rules. (Enter hallway, Bailey is at a desk) Bailey: O'Malley, Grey, get Karev and head down to Trauma. Shepherd needs you. Meredith: Shepherd's in surgery. Bailey: He got pulled before he could start. (Interns exiting elevator and enter trauma room) Meredith: Those look like� Derek: Nails. (Show x-ray screen of man with 7 nails in his head) Man: I can't see my hands. George: Oh my God! He's conscious. Alex: Breathe deeply George. You won't pass out. Derek: Use 4 mg's of morphine. Titrate up to 10. You know what? I don't want him to move. Man: I can't see. Meredith: It's ok. We need you to be very still, Mr� Doctor: Cruz, Jorge Cruz. He tripped and fell down a flight of stairs holding a nail gn. Alex: Sick. Derek: Somehow he managed to miss a blood vessel. That's a minor miracle. Optic nerve's been affected. Can you feel this? Numbness on his right side. What's our immediate concern? Meredith: Infection. Derek: Right. I wanna be pulling these nails out in the next half-hour. I need a CT. Doctor: CT's are down. Derek: What? Doctor: They exchanged them out last night. Computer's crashed; have them back up by 1:00. Derek: So typical. So what are the options? George: An MRI? Derek: No! Alex: Brilliant. The man's got nails in his head. Let's put him in a giant magnet. You want films from three axis points and a C-arm in surgery. Derek: Excellent! You guys dig up research and find out if this has ever happened before. Go! Jorge: My wife, my wife, my wife. Doctor: She's on the way. Meredith: Your wife is on the way, Mr. Cruz. Derek: Stay with him, keep him calm and look for changes. Jorge: Ohh. I can't see. (Nurse Fallon's room, Cristina is presenting rounds) Cristina: Fifty-five-year-old woman with adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. Has had radiation therapy to reduce the tumor load. Rates her abdominal pain three out of ten. Positive nausea, but no vomiting. Diarrhea, hematochazia, melena, afebrile with T-max 37-2 and sab vital signs. Lab significant for a total ability of seven and elevated liver enzymes. Burke: Thank you, Dr. Yang. Liz: Aggressive little witch, isn't she? She stole my chart during pre-rounds so she could scrub in on my surgery. She's hoping for a Whipple. Chief Webber: Well, actually, Liz, I was gonna give you to Meredith Grey. Liz: Ellis's daughter? Chief Webber: Yes, she's an intern this year. Thought you'd have something to talk about. Liz: Oh, I doubt that. I was Ellis's scrub nurse for 18 years, practically lived with that woman. I didn't meet that daughter once. Burke: Well, anyway, Shepherd has her on the guy with the nails in his head. Cristina: There's a guy with nails in his head? Burke: Seven of them. sht himself in the head with a nail gn. Cristina: "Nail" nails? Burke: Sixteen pennies, three and a half inches long. Cristina: Wait, and he's still alive? Burke: Fully conscious. Should be a pretty interesting surgery. Chief Webber: But I guess you've got the Whipple. Burke: I'm gonna need a full blood work-up and abdominal CT. Chief Webber: CT's are down this morning. Burke: Then an MRI. She needs an enema, an ERCP for a stent and brush biopsy this afternoon. Chief Webber: Take care of her. Liz is an institution around here. (Burke and Webber leave) Liz: Good call doctor. Grey's got the human two-by-four, and you have the institution in need of an enema. (Scene Jorge's trauma room) Meredith: You'd say your healths been good recently? Jorge: Maybe some headaches. Nothing compared to now. Sona, that's my wife. Sona, she'll say "Why you think they call it a gn, moron?" She hates the damn things. Meredith: With good reason. (Derek and Sona enter) Sona: Baby? Jorge: Sona. You are in so much trouble. Derek: Get a history from her before you scrub in. Meredith: Ok. Derek: Thank you. (Research room) George: 23. People have been accidentally sht in the head with nails 23 times. Alex: One was attempted su1c1de, doesn't count. George: Oh, so he pointed a nail gn at his head on purpose? That makes me feel better. Alex: So, uh, Grey and Stevens really walk around in their underwear? George: Not all the time. I mean, some of the time, you know. But not all the time. Alex: Sexy underwear? George: Yeah, I mean� Alex: And they just, uh, let you look at them? George: Well, uh�yeah. Alex: Like sisters. George: No, well, not like sisters. (Laughs) I don't think of them as sisters. Alex: But they're not coming on to you. George: Not exactly. Alex: They don't expect you to do anything. George: No. But� Alex: Like sisters. Just like sisters. (Bailey enters scrub room) Bailey: Is he prepped? Izzie: I think they're doing it right now. Bailey: You think? He's having a prostate biopsy. Trust me. If you'd been in there, you'd know. (Bailey enters and after a minute Izzie follows) Bailey: Ok, Mr. Humphrey. We're gonna get started. Mr. Humphrey: Get her out of here. I want her out of here! Just get her out of here! Bailey: Wait, Mr. Humphrey. Mr. Humphrey: Just you go! Now! Just go now! (Izzie leaves) Bailey: Hey, relax! Relax, Mr. Humphrey. (Hospital hallway) Sona: Will he be able to see again? Meredith: We won't know until the nails come out. Sona: Did he tell you he takes photos? Beautiful photos. It's his hobby. I just got him a new digital camera now he can't stop, you know? He always has it out, always taking pictures of me. Meredith: Jorge said he's been having headaches. Can you tell me about them? Have they been recent? Sona: Um�I'm not sure. Maybe the last couple of months. Meredith: Have you seen him experience any dizziness or disorientation? Sona: Yes, yes, I have. Meredith: Ok. (Bailey exits room, Izzie is waiting in the hall) Bailey: You want to tell me what that was all about? Izzie: Nothing. He's probably just crazy or something. (Pause) Bethany Whisper. Bailey: What? Izzie: Bethany Whisper. I did a new Bethany Whisper lingerie ad. He saw it in a magazine. Bailey: You got time to pose for magazines? Izzie: No, the sh*t was last year. It just came out. Bailey: So because he saw you in a thong� Izzie: It wasn't a thong. Bailey: �you're hiding out in the hallway. Izzie: I just think it might be easier if you assign another intern. Bailey: Easy is not in your job description. You are a doctor. He is a patient. He's your patient. Biopsy these. If they come back positive, I expect to see you in surgery. (Pause) Hey, you're on this. You understand me? (Scene scrub room for Derek's OR) Derek: Vertiginous or light-headedness? Meredith: Light-headed. Sometimes he'd have to brace himself to get out of bed. Derek: Could be a million things. Simple orthostasis. What? Meredith: What made him fall down the stairs with a nail gn? Derek: He said he tripped. Just because you hear hoof beats, don't assume zebras. Meredith: Something caused him to lose consciousness and fall down the stairs. He could have a tumor. Derek: Look, I have no idea why this guy's still alive, let alone moving and talking. Not a clue. Let's just get him through this before we start digging around for something else. (Into phone) Shepherd. 23 cases? Alex: One as attempted su1c1de. Derek: Yeah, that doesn't count. Talk about procedure. George: Biggest problems were bleeding and infection but the odds improved with shorter surgery times. Alex: Bottom line was get them out quickly and watch for bleeding. Derek: I got it. Other words, I'm on my own. (Research room, George gets up to leave, Alex is flipping through a magazine) George: You coming? Alex: Dude, I don't need an escort. Go. Go ahead. (George leaves) Well, well, well. Dr. Bethany Whisper. That's so nice. (SGH parking lot) (Scene copy machine, Alex making copies while whistling and humming.) (Jorge's OR) Jorge: She had this thing for red when we met. Red car, red dresses, red hats. Personally, I hated the color. Too obvious, you know? But a couple years ago, I took her up to the mountains. She was in a red dress, and there was this field of red�poppies, I think. And she jumped out of the car and ran into them and started laughing�laughing at all the red. (Dr. Bailey leaving Mr. Humphrey's room) Bailey: The good news is it hasn't spread from his prostate to his lymph nodes. Dr. Victor: With a radical prostatectomy, we could probably get it all. Good prognosis. Bailey: Spare some nerves? Give him a chance at a normal sex life? Dr. Victor: Young puppies like to take chances with cancer. Old dogs like me, we do what works. Bailey: Yes, sir, of course. Dr. Victor: We on the schedule tomorrow? Bailey: 10:00 am Dr. Victor: Good. Maybe I can squeeze in a round. (Dr. Victor walks away) Bailey: An ass who deals in Asses. We call him "Limp Harry." He never spares the nerves. (Jorge's OR) Chief Webber: As you can see, the patient has sht seven nails directly into the skull without doing significant damage other than the optic nerve, and we may be able to save that. The idea is to remove the nails at exactly the angle they entered. Any wiggle, and we risk doing more damage than when they went in. (Gallery) Cristina: Where are they? Move over. George: They're just pulling them out. Hey, I heard you got a Whipple. Cristina: A maybe Whipple. Burke is running my butt off. Oh, man. Look at those films! Alex: (Evil laugh) It's Hellraiser (OR) Woman: Maybe try to an 87. Man: Small increase then it will sab. (Derek pulls out nail) Derek: Gelfoam. Nurse: Here you go. (Gallery) Cristina: There goes the third grade. Burke: Dr. Yang�did you put in the blood work? Cristina: Oh, right before I got here. Burke: Hmm. Take her to Radiology for the MRI. Beep me when you're done. (Cristina sighs) You want the Whipple, right? Cristina: Yeah. (Cristina leaves, Izzie enters) Cristina: Hey. Izzie: Hey. Here. My share of the grocery money. When are you going? George: Tonight. Izzie: Ok, seriously, George. Please don't� George: Yeah, could we not talk about it here? Izzie: What, tampons? George: Did you not hear a word I said? Izzie: You're a man. We know. Alex: Talk about shrinking the salamander. (Scene: Elevator) Liz: I always divided surgeons into two categories: Those that remember the names of their patients and those who didn't. They all remember their surgeries, of course. Every damn suture. Cristina: But the good ones remember the names, right? Liz: I didn't say that. Now, some of the best ones, you know, distance themselves on purpose. They believe that the personal stuff clouds the medicine. Woman: Hi, Liz. Liz: Hey. Cristina: But? I'm waiting for the "but." I'm sure there's a big fat qualifier coming. Man: Hey, Liz. Liz: Hey! Man: Looking good. Liz: Oh you liar! Man 2: How you doing honey? Liz: Oh fabulous, just fabulous. Woman 2: Hey, Liz. Liz: Hey. Man 3: Hey, Liz. (Jorge's OR) Derek: Bleeding? Doctor: It's clean. Derek: All right. Way to go, team. Good job, everybody. Thank you. I don't think we made it worse. The big question is the optic nerve. We'll know in the morning. Meredith: Should I order the MRI? Derek: He needs to s*ab. We'll do it tomorrow. (Hallway exiting gallery) Man: One of the most amazing things I ever saw� Cristina: Is it over? Hey, is it over? Man 2: Yeah, it's over. (Cristina stops to read OR board) Cristina (loudly): Hey, does Burke have a Whipple scheduled? (Another hallway) Cristina: Dr. Burke, I wanted to know if you've seen Nurse Fallon's labs. Burke: I have. Cristina: They're getting worse. The stent doesn't seem to be helping her jaundice. Burke: No. Cristina: Should we be doing something? Burke: We are. Cristina: Oh, I noticed you didn't have the Whipple on the board. Do you want me to schedule it for you? Burke: I want to see the results of her biopsy, and have a look at her overnight labs. Cristina: Overnight? Burke: You're on-call, right? Cristina: Um�sure, yeah. Burke: Well, good. Stick with her. Cristina: Well, you're still doing the surgery, right? Y-you're still doing the Whipple? Burke: The woman has pancreatic cancer, Dr. Yang. We're gonna do something. Cristina: Ok. Ok. (Nurse Fallon's room) Liz: Kiss the baby for me. Woman: I will. Get some sleep, Liz. Liz: Ok. Good night. Woman: See you later, hon. Man: Bye-bye Liz. (Meredith enters) Liz: Oh. Your mom's a bigger woman. Meredith: You were her scrub nurse. Liz: Liz Fallon. Come in. Meredith: Meredith Grey. She wanted me to send her regards. Liz: That doesn't sound like her. Meredith: Excuse me? Liz: Well, the Ellis Grey I know didn't have regards for anyone except Ellis Grey. But you know that already, don't you? Where is she now? Meredith: Traveling. Liz: Traveling? Meredith: Yeah. Liz: Huh. Is she practicing? Meredith: Not so much. Liz: Oh. Doesn't sound like her, either. She was all work, just like me. She never left the hospital. But you know that, too, don't you? Is she well? Meredith: She's fine. Liz: Good. Meredith: Just wanted to send her regards. Take care. Liz: Yeah. (Meredith and Ellis at the rest home) Meredith: I think there were taken at the old house. (Opens photo album) There's you in your scrubs. Ellis: Who is that? Meredith: That's dad. Ellis: Who? Meredith: Your husband. Thatcher Grey. You called him Thatch. Ellis: Thatch. Meredith: That's the red wagon he got me for my birthday. I'm about four years old in this photo. This is your family. Ellis: Sure, sure. Meredith: I saw Liz Fallon at the hospital today. Ellis: (Laughing) Liz. I love her. How is she? Is she still a scrub nurse? She was excellent. (Bathroom at Meredith's house, George is in the shower, Izzie is in her underwear) Izzie: I reminded you before you went. George: I forgot when I got there. Izzie: No, no. You were so passive-aggressive. (Opens shower door) George: Naked. I am naked in the shower. Izzie: They're just tampons, George. I really need�d tampons. God! (Meredith enters) I'm not riding in the same car with him. Meredith: Unless you're going like that, you're not riding with me. (Opens cabinet) Where are the tampons? Izzie: He didn't buy them. Meredith: You didn't buy them? George: Men don't buy tampons. Izzie: You know what. You are gonna have to get over the man thing, George. We're women! We have vaginas! Get used to it. George: I am not your sister. (Scene: SGH hallway) Derek: Grilled cheese again? Meredith: Cold pizza. Derek: Is he awake? Meredith: Even better. Derek: Really? Let's see what his nurse says. (Enters Jorge's room) Hi, Sona, Jorge. How are you this morning? Sona: Tell them what color my dress is, Jorge. Jorge: I'd know the answer to that even if I couldn't see. (Scene: SGH entryway) Izzie: I'm taking the elevator. Take the stairs. George: I was going to anyway. Izzie: Good! Hold it. Thank you. (Elevator is full of men laughing) What? (Elevator doors close and there is a picture of Izzie as Bethany Whisper on the doors) (Scene: Cristina enters Nurse Fallon's room) Liz: You don't wake a patient like that. What do I have to do to get through to you? Cristina: Cut me some slack. I was on call last night. I didn't get much sleep. Liz: Oh, stop whining. You'd rather be here, and you know it. What you got waiting for you at home? Boyfriend? Cristina: Nope. Liz: A girlfriend? Cristina: Nope. Liz: A pet? Family? Cristina: A bed. Liz: We got plenty of beds here. I don't feel sorry for you. This is who we are. This is our lives. You tell her, Dr. Burke. Cristina: Can I talk to you? (Another hallway) Man: Hey, come on, come on. Man 2: Let's go. Man 3: What's going on? Woman: Excuse me. What's going on? (George tries to block Izzie from entering locker room) Izzie: George, stop. (Izzie enters locker room to find pictures or her posted all over. There is whistling and cheering.) Alex: Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh! We have Bethany Whisper in our locker room. Oh, boy, I guess they do airbrush out the tattoo, don't they? Izzie: You want to see it? You really want to see it? Fine. (Takes off coat) Let's look at that tattoo up close and personal, shall we? (Takes off shirt) And what are these? Oh, my God! Breasts! How does anybody practice medicine hauling these things around? (Takes hair down) And what do we got back here? Let's see if I remember my anatomy. (Takes pants off) Glutes, right? Let's study them, shall we? Gather around and check out the booty that put Izzie Stevens through med school. Have you had enough or should I continue? Because I have a few more very interesting tattoos. (Alex looks ashamed) You want to call me Dr. Model? That's fine. Just remember that while you're sitting on 200 grand of student loans�I'm out of debt. (Storms off) George: I'll take them down. Izzie: Don't bother. (Scene: Jorge's room) Derek: Can you tell me what you had for breakfast on Monday? Jorge: Cheese omelet. And on Sunday. And on Saturday. And on Friday. Sona gets up every morning and makes me a cheese omelet. Sona: It's the only thing he likes. Jorge: It's the only thing you know how to cook. Derek: Ok, well, things look good. But I need Jorge to get an MRI this morning to check for residual bleeding. Ok? (Scene: Izzie enters Mr. Humphrey's room and puts a Bethany Whisper picture down.) Izzie: This is who I was. It has nothing to do with who I am now. I'm a physician, a surgeon. And I am just as qualified as any other intern on this floor. So, you're just gonna have to get over you chauvinist crap and allow me to do my job. Mr. Humphrey: I'm sure you're a very good doctor. Izzie: Then what is your problem? Mr. Humphrey: Look. I fantasized about you�about the woman in this photo, whoever she is. I'm not proud of it, but it's a fact. Do you know what they're gonna do to me today? I have cancer. And they're gonna lift up my legs and expose me to the world and cut out my prostate and my nerves, effectively neuter me. So, is it so hard to understand that I don't want the woman who's in that photo to witness�my emasculation? (Hallway) Cristina: Have you seen her overnight labs? Burke: I have. Cristina: Did you check her liver panel? Burke: They're not good. Cristina: No, they suck. She's choking on bile. She's jaundiced. Burke: A very sick woman. Cristina: Why haven't you scheduled the Whipple? Burke: Well, are you a surgeon now? Cristina: I'm her cruise director, pushing her around all day. The woman is circling the drain. We need to do something. Burke: I'll take a look at her biopsy. Cristina: Screw the biopsy. Burke: Dr. Yang� Cristina: Enough. You know�You know�I�I� You know what I think? I think you never intended to do the Whipple. I think this entire thing has been bull, and you're behaving like the only reason she's in this hospital is to die. (Burke raises his eyebrows and nods. Cristina realizes the relevance of her words.) (MRI for Jorge Cruz) Derek: There. That's a tumor. It's midline near the hypothalamus. Meredith: Damn. (Jorge's room) Derek: Best practice, probably to remove the tumor. "Probably" because I can't get it all. 99%, but not all of it. Radiation and chemo, you're looking at maybe five to ten good years. Jorge: Let's do it. Derek: You haven't heard the downside. See, the tumor is located in a part of your brain where your memory and your personality resides. And because of the fuzzy edges of this type of tumor, I have to cut out a lot. Jorge, you stand a good chance of losing your memories. Of losing who you are. Sona: Is there any other way? Derek: The alternative is gamma or cyberknife treatment with focus radiation. It's less evasive. There's little chance of memory loss or him losing himself but it would only give Jorge maybe three to five years. Sona: Three to five years? Derek: This is an incredibly difficult decision. If you have any more questions or you need to talk to me, I'm here, ok? (Scene: Meredith is sitting in Liz's room, she is asleep and breathing heavily.) Liz: Hey. Meredith: I told my mother about you. She remembers you very well. Liz: Of course she would. Ellis Grey never forgot a thing. Meredith: (Chuckling) Mmm. Oh�. I'm sorry. It's not really funny. It's not funny, but� Liz: What's her diagnosis? Meredith: Alzheimer's, early onset. Liz: And she doesn't want anyone to know. Meredith: No. She's in a nursing home and I'm the only person she'll allow to see her. Liz: But if I know Ellis Grey, she made the nursing home sign a contract to that effect. Meredith: You know my mother well. Liz: What a bitch. (Both laugh) (Scene: Outside SGH) Izzie: The woman's life was this hospital. It was her home. It's a sweet thing for them to do. Cristina: It's a waste of a bed, and it's a waste of my time. Meredith: Who are we talking about? Cristina: Liz Fallon. They brought her here to die. Izzie: Wouldn't you want them to do the same thing for you? Cristina: No! You know what, I'd want the doctors to do everything they could. I'd want them to cut me open until the minute I die. Meredith: Sometimes doing everything can be worse than doing nothing. Cristina: (Flipping through Seattle magazine) You are eight feet tall. Your boobs are perfect. Your hair is down to there. If I were you I'd walk around naked all the time. I wouldn't�I wouldn't have a job. I wouldn't have skills. I wouldn't even know how to read. I'd just be�naked. Izzie: It's makeup. It's retouching. Cristina: You get that we hate you, right? Izzie: (Pager beeps) Bailey again. Cristina: You know what, any patient who spanks to his doctor's pictures forfeits his rights. You're seriously not gonna give up the prostatectomy, are you? Izzie? Oh forget it. You know, sometimes it is actually, you know, painful to be around you. (Scene: Mr. Humphrey's room, he is getting ready to go to the OR.) Bailey: Where the hell have you been? When I page, you answer. It's not that difficult to understand. O'Malley answered his page. He's doing your prep. (Mr. Humphrey is wheeled out.) If I hear the words Bethany Whisper one more time� Izzie: I can't, ok? I just�can't. He doesn't want me in there. Bailey: No, what he wants is to not have cancer. What he wants is to be saved. You want to stay in the scrub room, that's your choice. (Jorge's room) Derek: All right. I'll do my best. (To Meredith) Jorge and Sona want the surgery. Meredith: They want you to cut it out? Derek: Mm-hmm. It's their decision. (Scene: Liz's room, her breathing is very heavy now.) Liz: They were never gonna operate. Cristina: You could have told me. Liz: What fun would that have been? Think of it as a hazing ritual. (Grabs Cristina's hand) Welcome� Cristina: Liz, don't talk. Don't talk. Liz, just� (Liz's machines begin beeping) Cristina: Liz? Liz, stay�Liz, stay with me. Stay with me, Liz. (Pushes cold blue button) (Jorge's room. He is asleep, Sona leaves quietly. Meredith is outside the door.) Meredith: Sona? (Scene: Code team running to Liz's room) Doctor: Let's go. Nurse: Here we go. Bag her. Push epi and atropine. Cristina: Somebody page Burke. (People are trying to resuscitate Liz) Male Nurse: She's DNR. She's DNR. Do not resuscitate! Dr. Yang! Cristina: Come on, people! Push another epi! Come on! (Hallways outside of Jorge's room) Meredith: You need to consider what you'll lose. What good is five years if he doesn't joke about your omelets and he can't remember seeing you in that red dress? Sona: It's still five more years. Meredith: You don't understand. He'll be there, but he won't be Jorge. He won't even recognize you. Sona: This is our business. Meredith: You have no idea what this will do to you. Isn't five good years better than ten bad ones? Derek: Meredith, what the hell are you doing? Meredith: She needs to understand. Sona: I do understand. You think that I'm being selfish, that I don't want to give him up. Meredith: I don't. Sona: This is Jorge's decision. And it that means ten bad years for me, fine. I'll give him those years because I will give him whatever he wants. Derek: Look, I am so sorry, Sona. Just please forgive her. She's an intern� Sona: And if he doesn't remember me, if he doesn't remember what we are, he's still my Jorge. And I'll remember for us both. Derek: Ok, all right. (Liz's room) Cristina: (Performing CPR) Five, breathe, one, two. Burke: What the hell are you two doing? Cristina: We lost pulse. Burke: Let her go. Cristina: Where's that epi? Burke: Let her go! She's DNR. Let her go down. Cristina: Four, five. One, two. Burke: (Pulling Cristina off) Do not resuscitate. Cristina: All right. Burke: It is on her chart. Cristina: All right Burke: Let her go down. Let her go down. (Mr. Humphrey's scrub room) Izzie: Where are they? George: He's resecting the prostate, coming up on the distal nerve. Izzie: You said, "I am not your sister." Do you feel like I was emasculating you? George: No. No. I'm too masculine to be emasculated. Izzie: I'm sorry. George: Guess you put Dr. Model to rest. Izzie: Guess I did. (OR) Bailey: Dr. Victor, I'm sorry, these are viable nerves. We should try and save them. Dr. Victor: It'll take at least an hour longer, and we might not get it all. (Scrub room) Izzie: You know, they call him Limp Harry. (OR) Bailey: But his prognosis with chemo is nearly as good. And frankly, if you're worried about missing your tee time, I'd be more than happy to finish. (Izzie enters) Dr. Stevens. Dr. Victor: Can we help you? Izzie: I'm sorry, Dr. Bailey. Dr. Victor, I agree with her. You just can't�you have to save the nerves. Dr. Victor: What? Izzie: The nerves, you have to save them. Dr. Bailey: Dr. Stevens, I can handle this. Izzie: You told me the most important thing is giving the patient what they want. What Humphrey wants is his erection. Dr. Victor: She's yours. You get her out. Dr. Bailey: Can't do that sir. You know how these young puppies are. Dr. Victor: I'm going to tell Richard about both of you. Dr. Bailey: You do that. In the meantime, let's pretend it's you on this table and give this a try. (Scene: Liz's room is full of doctors and nurses waiting for her to die.) Burke: Dr. Pinosky (Man turns off monitor) (To Cristina) you ever called one? Cristina: No. Chief Webber: Call it doctor. Cristina: Time of death, 11:43. (Scene: Derek talking to Sona, Meredith standing back) MVO: I wish there were a rulebook for intimacy. Some kind of a guide that could tell you when you've crossed the line. (Scene: Stairwell) Burke: You can't lose it like that. MVO: It would be nice if you could see it coming. Cristina: I'll get her. (Burke grabs her) Burke: Let her go. MVO: And I don't know how you fit it on a map. Burke: We have to let her go. (Scrub room) Bailey: Of course, now you know every time he gets a rise, he'll be thinking of you. (Izzie smiles) MVO: You take it where you can get it� (Jorge is taking pictures of Sona.) MVO:...and keep it as long as you can. (Meredith holding her moms hand walking down some stairs) (George in the shower, Izzie is sitting on the toilet.) MVO: And as for rules� George: Better not be using my toothbrush. Izzie: I'm not. MVO: Maybe there are none. (Meredith walks up to a table and sits down with Derek) MVO: Maybe the rules of intimacy are something you have to define for yourself.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x04 - No Man's Land"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x05: Shake Your Groove Thing Original Airdate: 4/24/2005 Written by: Ann Hamilton Directed by: John David Coles (Music: The Ditty Bops-Wake Up) (Meredith sitting on the floor in her shower) Meredith Voiceover (MVO): Remember when you were a kid and your biggest worry was, like, if you'd get a bike for your birthday, or if you get to eat cookies for breakfast. Being an adult? Totally overrated. (Cut to Meredith walking to the Nursing Home) MVO: I mean, seriously, don't be fooled by all the hot shoes and the great sex and the no parents anywhere telling you to do. Adulthood is responsibility. Caretaker: The lawyer has been managing the estate with a limited power of attorney, but your mother's Alzheimer's is advancing. So, while she's still lucid enough to consent, she needs to sign everything over to you. Meredith: Me? MVO: Responsibility, it really does suck. Meredith: (raspy) Look, I haven't slept in 48 hours. I'm getting my first sht at heart surgery this morning. I'm missing rounds. Are you sure there isn't anybody here, or the attorney...? I mean, do I really have to be the one to handle this? Caretaker: We're talking about her estate, her finances, her medical care. You really want to leave her life in someone else's hands? She's your mother. MVO: Really, really sucks. (Cut to O.R. where the heart surgery is taking place) MVO: Adults have to be places and do things and earn a living and pay the rent. And if you're training to be a surgeon, holding a human heart in your hands... Hello! Talk about responsibility. (We see Meredith closing her eyes and dozing off for a second. Her hand squeezes the heart she's holding) Burke: What was that Dr. Grey? Meredith: Sorry, it slipped. My hands. Burke: It's okay, I'm done. You can release Mrs. Patterson's heart now. Very gently. All right. Let's warm her up. Get her off bypass. MVO: Kinda makes bikes and cookies look really really good, doesn't it? (Cut to Observation Deck) George: I wish I could hold a heart Cristina: A monkey could hold a heart. George: You're mad Burke didn't ask you. Izzie: George, I need more ice and chips. George: Who else did you invite? Cristina: Izzie, we said the list was jocks only. Surgery, Trauma, Plastics. Who else? Izzie: Just some people from Peds. Cristina: You invited the preschoolers to Meredith's house. The next thing you'll say is you invited the shrinks. (Izzie looks away) Cristina: She invited mental defects. This party's D.O.A. George: You know, Meredith thinks this is just going to be a little, small, meet-your-boyfriend cocktail thing. Did you clear this with her? Izzie: No, but I will. (George and Cristina give her a look) I promise. Cristina: Why are you wasting the only weekend your boyfriend is in town on a big party? Is he bad in bed? Izzie: (chuckles) No. I just want him to meet some of my friends. Cristina: Right. Sixty geeks in scrubs are your friends. (Her beeper goes off. She gets up to leave) Bad sex, sucks for you. Alex: I heard there was a party tonight at Meredith's house. Cristina: Oh really, party? Izzie: Uh, news to me. George: No party. Alex: Are we losing her or what? (Cut back to O.R.) Doctor:: The grafts? Burke: They're open. Temperature? Doctor 2: She's at 96 and rising. Burke: She should be doing this on her own (He strokes the heart. Flat line) C'mon, Mrs. Patterson. Paddles. Doctor 2: Sets are below 90. Doctor 3: Charge Burke: 10 joules. (Puts paddles to heart) Clear. (Shocks) C'mon Mrs. Patterson. Give me 20. Doctor 3: Charge. Burke: There, we have rhythm. Reluctant heart. All right. Let's close. Keep an eye on her. Good work, everyone. MVO: The scariest part about responsibility: when you screw up and let it slip right through your fingers. (Close up of Meredith's glove. Her fingernail seems to have cut through it.) (Cut to hallway where we see Derek walking and eating at the same time. He runs into George and Meredith) Derek: Hey, I hear you did a CABG with Burke. Meredith: yeah. Derek: Did you get to hold the heart? Meredith: yeah. Derek: It's an amazing feeling. You never forget your first time. George: It was pretty great just to watch. Vicarious thrills, you know? Meredith: yeah. (Elevator bell rings. George and Meredith get in. She looks out of it. Derek stands outside the elevator, looking concerned) Derek: See you later. Meredith: Bye. (Elevator doors close. George and Meredith are alone. George is reading something, leaning on the wall. Meredith stands with her arms crossed, facing the door.) Meredith: I think maybe I did something to the heart when I was holding it. I nodded off a little. Squeezed it. George: Oh, please. The heart's a tough muscle. It could take a squeeze or two. Meredith: My fingernail popped the glove. Cut straight through. George, what if I punctured Mrs. Patterson's heart? (George stops reading and stands next to Meredith) George: If... If you had punctured it, you would have know when they reperfused. They got her heart beating. The woman's okay. Meredith: So I shouldn't tell Burke? George: Tell him what? You know, um, nothing happened. The woman's okay, right? Meredith: (hesitates) She's okay. George: She's fine. Meredith: She's fine. (Cut to Hospital Room) Bailey: What do you see, George? George: Hyper-inflated lungs, clouded with bullae, seriously diminished capacity. She must be having trouble breathing. Bailey: Course of action? George: A bullectomy procedure, remove the bullae, reduce the pressure. Webber: Says here we operated on her back in '99, so Mrs. Drake as been through this before, but talk her through it anyway. And resist the anti-smoking lecture, she feels bad enough already. (Webber leaves. George walks over to Bailey, who is looking at x-rays) George: So you think if they put pictures of these on a pack of cigarettes people would stop smoking? (Bailey gives him a look and shakes her head slightly. George looks awkwardly away) (Cut to hospital room) Alex: How long has your back been hurting you? Patient: It's chronic. That means I have it all the time. Alex: I know what chronic means. What kind of pain are you having? Patient: Oh, man. The pain's bad. It's like a thousand samurai warriors sab swords into my spine. I'm allergic to aspirin... Alex: So maybe we'll start you on morphine. Patient: Mmmm...The only things that will work are Demerol or, uh, Dilaudid a ton of Dilaudid. That will set me straight. (Close up of the Patient's arm, lots of scars from needles) Alex: The standard starting dose is two. Patient: Did you see that Tom Cruise Samurai movie? Hmm? Pow, pow, pow! (Cut to Alex and Derek outside room) Alex: Exaggerated and overly specific description of his pain, self prescription, pow pow pow? He's a Dilaudid junkie. Derek: So what do you do? Alex: Well, you check the database for history, refer to a program, discharge. Derek: After you give him something. Alex: That's exactly what he wants. Derek: Junkie or not, you still have to treat his pain as if it were real. (His pager goes off) Alex: Why? Derek: First rule in pain management: always err on the side of caution. He's in our care. He says he's in pain. Start a central line, his veins are sht. � (Alex looks on incredulously and walks off) (Cut to lung patient's room) Mrs. Drake: The surgery before was supposed to help, but it...it never felt right. (She takes off her glasses) George: Probably would have been a good idea to quit smoking. Mrs. Drake: I did! Four pack a day habit. Oh, it was hell. Nurse: Here you go, Mrs. Drake. (Gives her a blanket) Mrs. Drake: It didn't do any damn good. George: Really? Because it looked, I mean, from the damage, we all thought you probably were still smoking. Mrs. Drake: Cold turkey. Five years ago. What do I get for my trouble? I still had to quit my job at the restaurant. But even sitting, it hurt. Nurse: Here you go. (Adjusts her pillow) Mrs. Drake: Nobody believed me. They all said it was in my head. George: I've seen the films. It's not all in your head. Mrs. Drake: You're right about that. Hey, come here. (George moves closer) You're too damn young to be a doctor. George: Hey Mrs. Drake: What George: I'm older than I look. (They start wheeling her away) Mrs. Drake: (smiles) Do you think this is going to work this time? George: I think it's your best option. Mrs. Drake: Straight-sht, huh? George: Yes, ma'am. Mrs. Drake: I like that. (Cut to room where Mrs. Patterson is. Her husband is with her. Grey watches them for a while, then approaches) Meredith: Hi, Mr. Patterson. Mr. Patterson: Hi. Meredith: Hemodynamics sab? Nurse: Yeah, map has stayed around 80, cardiac output at 5. Mr. Patterson: That's good, Dr. Grey? Meredith: That's fine, Mr. Patterson. Mr. Patterson: But it's not good. Meredith: Well, heart surgery takes a lot out of the patient, but we're monitoring your wife very carefully and she should be fine. (Cut to hospital room.) Izzie: Mr. Sterman, let's see about getting you out of here today. How are you feeling? Mr. Sterman: Pretty okay, except I don't think I ever wanna have a bowel obstruction again. Izzie: Really? Wow, because we get people in here all the time requesting them. So are you keeping down clear fluids? And my all time favorite question to ask a patient: have you pooped yet? Mr. Sterman: Um, I'm not exactly sure. (She continues examining) Izzie: I think you'd probably know. Passed gas? Mr. Sterman: (hesitates) Yes. Izzie: Really yes? Cause if I bring in my handy lie detector... Mr. Sterman: Okay, no. And I shouldn't try and lie. I know. I went to medical school. Izzie: You went to med school? Mr. Sterman: Yeah, dropped out my last year at clinical. Too many hours and I was staring into the ice-cold eyes of divorce. Izzie: Wow. Mr. Sterman: Yeah, I do research now. And I have a life, a family. No offense. I mean... Izzie: No, no. It's okay. I'm just one of those people who believe you can have both. Mr. Sterman: Maybe so, but your first responsibility is always going to be your patient. (Izzie walks out of the room. Burke walks by her. He's carrying two cups of coffee. Cristina is standing at a counter nearby. He puts one cup down next to her. She looks at the coffee then at him. He sips his cup. He looks back at her) Burke: Just coffee. (Smiles) (Cristina looks confused) Cristina: Good. Burke: Okay. Cristina: Okay. (Burke nods and walks away. Cristina closes her file, hesitates and picks up the coffee and drinks it. Burke peeks around the corner and watches her walk away.) (Cut to Locker Room) (Meredith is splashing her face with water at a sink. She looks at herself in the mirror.) (Cut to O.R. for Mrs. Drake) Bailey: We call this a spaghetti procedure. We cut and deflate the bullae to facilitate gentle manipulation of Mrs. Drake's lung. Webber: Dr. Bailey, do you see that? Bailey: Sir? Oh my ever-lovin... Webber: We need to open her up. I'm taking out the scope. Bailey: You heard him, people. Let's move. Webber: Lights. Let's get set up. 10 blade. Get the scalpel ready. Towel. Bailey: Rib spreader. Webber: Suction. (They start pulling something black out of Mrs. Drake) George: Is that a towel? Bailey: Get a pan. George: Where did that come from? Webber: Best guess, her surgery five years ago. Bailey: Something careless this way comes. (Cut to George, Cristina, Bailey and Webber walking in a hallway.) Cristina: A towel? Webber: Not good. George: She complained about pressure on her chest. Said nobody took her seriously. Webber: Not good for the patient, not good for the hospital. Not good. Bailey: Cristina, ht the files. Find out everything you can about that initial operation. Who was in that room, who was responsible for closing. George, you stay with the patient. Keep her happy, she seems to like you. George: Right, okay, um, how long do you think I mean just technically, I'm off at 6:00. Bailey: Am I invited? George: Excuse me? Bailey: Am I invited to the party? George: (surprised) Oh! You, well, yeah. Yes. Yeah. Of course. (Bailey walks away. Cristina gives George a look) George: What was I supposed to say? Cristina: Ugh! (Cut to Izzie talking on the phone) Izzie: Yeah, great. All right. 14 cases. Uh, what kind, I dunno, maybe an assortment? (Alex walks up to her) Alex: Microbrews, locals. Make sure they throw in some bar nuts. Izzie: I'm ordering office supplies. Alex: Oh yeah, sure. (He walks away) Izzie: Microbrews, locals, throw in some bar nuts. 7 o�clock would be better than 5:00. (Mr. Sterman walks by) Izzie: Uh, hey, any luck? Mr. Sterman: No, hey, if I do, will you invite me to the party? Izzie: (laughs) Okay great, thanks. (Cut to Back Pain Guy's room. He is squirming in pain. Derek walks by and sees.) Derek: Hey, Mr. Frost. We're going to take care you of. Just hang on. Mr. Frost: Were the hell have you been?! (Cut to Research room) Derek: When I tell you to start a central line, you start a central line. No judgment, no question. Alex: The guy's been in seven hospitals in the last 4 months. He's a major addict. Derek: The patient has a three lumbar fusion. Alex: He's a junkie. I mean we shouldn't be giving him Derek: Yeah! He's an addict. But his pain is real. Now, lose the attitude, get down there, start a central line. (Alex gets up and leaves the room) (Cut to Mrs. Drake's room) Mrs. Drake: (with difficulty) Told me I had a towel inside me. George: Who told you that? Mrs. Drake: A surgeon, uh, older man, handsome. George: That's Dr. Webber, he's our chief. Mrs. Drake: Yeah. It was a towel that somebody left last time. George: Yes, ma'am. Mrs. Drake: Who would do that? (Voice breaking) That doesn't seem right, does it? George: No, ma'am, no. It doesn't. Mrs. Drake: I was walking around with a towel inside of me. How could that happen? (Cut to a room with a lot of filing cabinets) (Cristina is looking through files. She finds the right one. It says that Burke was the Surgical Fellow in the O.R. for Mrs. Drake's operation in 1999. She looks up, concerned.) (Cut to Cristina showing Bailey the file) Cristina: So? What happens now? Bailey: Now, you keep this to yourself while we work it out. (She takes the file and begins to walk away) Do this for me. (Cristina nods) (Cut to Meredith at a counter with a file) (Derek walks up to her) Derek: Are you okay? Meredith: Yeah, yeah, I�m good. Derek: Are you sure, cause you seem not okay. Meredith: I'm fine. CABG was long. Derek: Well, let me take you out to dinner tonight. You can tell me all about it. Real food, waiters, big chunks of carbs in a basket. Meredith: I can't. Derek: Forget about the party. Meredith: You know about the party? Derek: Your friends will be at the party. You and I can be alone somewhere else. Meredith: How do you know about the party? Derek: Thanks for not inviting me, by the way. That felt good. Dinner, think about dinner, perfect opportunity. Meredith: Well (Beeper) (Derek walks away. Meredith runs in the opposite direction.) (Cut to Mrs. Patterson) Nurse: Started having some swelling over the sternum and then the blood just started gushing. Dr. Burke is on his way right now. Mr. Patterson: Is she dying? Meredith: Somebody get him out of here. Keep applying pressure. Burke: Tyler, call for an O.R. What the hell happened? She got a protamine Meredith: Her protocol. No allergic anaphylactic or histamine responses. Burke: Her last counts? Meredith: BT, PTT, INR platelet counts were all sab. Even her HNH were sab. Burke: What the hell went wrong? Let's move. Nurse: Hold on. Meredith: I popped a glove. Burke: What? Meredith: In surgery, when I was holding it. I popped a glove with my fingernail. I think I may have nicked her heart. Burke: Let's go, people. (Mr. Patterson looks on as they wheel his wife away) (Cut to O.R.) Burke: What were you thinking about? You had every opportunity to speak up before I closed her chest. Every opportunity. Suction. MEREDITH: I'm sorry. Burke: And then going to confess in front of her husband? You don't even know if you were the cause. You have no idea. Meredith: I'm sorry. Burke: There. Over here. (Motions for Meredith to go look) There, look at the wall rupture. That's a hell of a lot more than a fingernail. Her ventricular wall was weak. (Webber walks in) Webber: I just had a conversation with Mr. Patterson. I want copies of his wife's chart in my office by 5:00. Tomorrow morning, the two of you are going to meet with me and legal and you better damn well be able to explain what happened here. (Starts to leave) (Mutters to himself) People poking holes in hearts, leaving towels in people. Burke: You're going to go back and talk to the husband. Review the history. Apologize, profusely. Your ass is on the line here, Dr. Grey. (Cut to Cristina, George and Meredith sitting in hallway) George: You got called before the chief? Meredith: Tomorrow morning. I could get kicked out of the program. I could, right? George: You're not getting kicked out. Cristina: Patterson's just going to sue. George: Patterson is not going to sue and you're not getting kicked out. Cristina: What the hell are you thinking? Telling Burke. So stupid. George: I told her not to. (Meredith's phone rings) Meredith: I gotta take this. Thanks. Thank you. Very comforting. George: I'll watch your books. (Meredith walks away. Izzie arrives with coffee, a banana, water, pudding and other things in hand. Cristina takes the coffee and banana. George takes the pudding and water bottle.) Izzie: Ok, So the beer's coming at 7:00 and some of the floor nurses are bringing wine. Cristina: You invited nurses? Ugh. George: Did you clear this with Meredith? Izzie: A few more people isn't going to make a difference. Okay? A party's a party. Cristina: And the bigger the party, the less time for bad sex with the hockey player. Izzie: Would you stop saying that? Cristina: Ok Izzie: Hank and I have great sex. Cristina: Mm-hmm Izzie: All the time. Cristina: Mm-hmm. Izzie: In fact, we'll probably have sex after the party, or during the party. George: As long as you clear it with Meredith. Izzie: Hank just needs to realize that doctors can have fun. We're not all workaholics with God complexes. Cristina: We ARE workaholics with God complexes. (Izzie gives her a look. George shows her an inflated glove puppet with a drawn on face.) (Cut to Meredith on the phone next to a window) Meredith: And the notary can be there at 6:30 too? And the home's physician will be there attest to her mental competency. Okay, is there anything else I need to bring besides my license? My checkbook. 6:30, I'll be there. (She hangs up. Derek walks up to her, leans on the railing.) Derek: I heard. Meredith: It's a notary thing. A thing to get notarized. Derek: I'm talking about the heart thing. Do you want to talk about it? Meredith: We're adults. When did that happen? And how do we make it stop? (She walks away) (Cut to Cristina putting a chart away. Burke is there too. She looks at him awkwardly) Burke: Dr. Yang. Cristina: Dr. Burke. (Pause) That bypass graft got a little complicated. Burke: It's nothing I couldn't handle. Cristina: Good. (She walks away) (Cut to Mr. Patterson outside of the hospital talking on the phone) Mr. Patterson: Uh huh, yeah. Mm-hmm. Listen, I'll call you back. (Meredith walks up) Mr. Patterson: That was my lawyer. He was advising me not to talk to you. Meredith: Mr. Patterson, I know that you're frustrated and angry, but I need, we need, some more information about your wife. The walls of her heart are abnormally thin Mr. Patterson: Hey, don't blame this on my wife. I heard from your very mouth what happened. I know. Meredith: But we can't treat her. Mr. Patterson: She was in the best shape of her life. You ask her cardiologist. She had lost 100 pounds. Don't you dare try to hang this on her Meredith: Mr. Patterson, please. Mr. Patterson: We're through talking. (He leaves) (Cut to Alex giving Mr. Frost his central line) Mr. Frost: You don't like me very much, do you? Alex: No, Jerry, it's not you specifically, it's just uh, its people like you, that's all. (Derek walks in) Mr. Frost: Doc! Feeling pretty good. The pain's about a 3. Derek: A three? That's excellent. Mr. Frost, I'm glad we could help you out. As well as County, Mercy West, Seattle Pres., a lot of people helped you out, Jerry. Pleased we could do our part. Who's on discharge today, Dr. Karev? Alex: Izzie Stevens. Derek: Mr. Frost, Dr. Stevens is going to come in here and discharge you. Mr. Frost: Whoa, you can't discharge me. I'm in pain. Derek: You were in pain. Now you're not. Dr. Karev is going to recommend some wonderful treatment programs for you. Go home. Get some help. Mr. Frost: You can't just do that. (Derek leaves) Alex: He just did, my friend. (Cut to Mr. Sterman's room) Izzie: Okay, any luck yet? Mr. Sterman: Nada. Izzie: Looks like you're going to have to spend another night. Mr. Sterman: Oh, I'd hate to miss the party. Are you going to make it? Izzie: Well, you are the last person on my list so it's looking pretty good. Mr. Sterman: So, doctors have lives after all. Who'd have thunk? Derek: Dr. Stevens, discharge my guy in 342. Izzie: Don't look at me like that. It's not going to take very long. It's not. (She leaves) (Cut to reception) (George walks over to Izzie) George: You paged me? Izzie: I'm gonna be a while. Do you think you could get home to sign for the beer? Alex: Why don't you have your boyfriend sign for it? Izzie: You have a very annoying way of sneaking up on people. Maybe if you were a little less creepy. Alex: I wouldn't come anyway. I hate big parties. George: Is Meredith the only person in the hospital who doesn't know the size of this thing? Izzie: I'm telling her. Cristina: You can't. She's gone already. Izzie: What? Already? Cristina: I think she had, excuse me, an errand to run. (Cristina walks off) Izzie: You don't think Meredith's really going to mind about the party, right? George: I want you to make it very clear to her that I had nothing to do with this party. Nothing. (He walks off) (shts of nighttime Seattle) (Cut to nursing home) (Meredith walks in. Caretaker approaches her) Meredith: Sorry I'm late, it was the traffic Caretaker: It doesn't matter, dear. Meredith: Okay, don't tell me the notary didn't show. Caretaker: Oh, everybody's here. It's just your mother isn't. Meredith: Mom? Mom? Ellis: What do you people want from me? Meredith: We need you to sign the lawyers' papers. Ellis: I have a cranial reconstruction in a half hour. I need to go. Meredith: Okay, Mom, we're all here. We have a notary. I need you to focus and I need you to sign these papers. Mom, look at me. Ellis: It's an emergency surgery. I don't have time for this. Caretaker: She can't sign anything now. She's sun downing. We should have done this earlier in the day. Meredith: I couldn't come earlier in the day. I have a job. And a life. And I'm here now. Caretaker: Well, you're going to have to come back tomorrow when she's lucid. Meredith: You know, why did she put this off for so long? And why did you let her? Doesn't it strike you as slightly irresponsible? I mean, what the hell is wrong with you people? (She leaves) (Cut to hospital) (Cristina sees Bailey talking to Burke. She shows him the file. Bailey begins to walk away from Burke with the file. He motions for her to give him the file. She stops. She gives him the file and walks away. Cristina leaves, disappointed.) (Cut to Burke looking at the file himself) (Cut to Meredith driving up to her house) (There is loud music playing and people everywhere) Meredith: Izzie, I'm gonna kll you. (Cut to inside the house) (Cristina is at the food table. She reaches for something. Bailey takes it instead) Bailey: You could touch that, but I'd have to kll you. Cristina: (quietly) So about that towel thing? Bailey: It's been taken care of. Cristina: Okay. Bailey: You don't need to concern yourself with it. Cristina: So what's going to happen? Bailey: We're not gonna talk about it anymore is what's gonna happen. Are we clear? Or have you had too much alcohol to understand me? Cristina: We're very clear. Bailey: Good. You have any bourbon? (Cristina walks away) (Cut to Frost's room) (They're wheeling him out of his room in a wheel chair. He's putting up a fight to stay) Mr. Frost: You can't discharge a man in pain. Alex: Sorry. Mr. Frost: Ow, you're hurting me. Izzie: You're the one making it more difficult. Stop resisting. Mr. Frost: Just give me a ht of Demerol. Just give me a ht of Demerol. C'mon. Alex: the Dilaudid hasn't worn off yet. Izzie: Mr. Frost, you have to leave. Mr. Frost: I'm not leaving! NO! Izzie: I'm calling Psych. Mr. Frost: NO! (Gets out of wheelchair) Don't call Psych! Alex: Stop, Jerry. Stop him, stop him! (More struggling. Frost trips and falls. Alex and Izzie rush over) Alex: Jerry? Jerry! Izzie: Concussion? (Alex shines a flashlight into his eyes) Alex: He's blown his left pupil. Page Shepherd. We've gotta get him down to C.T. (Cut to x-ray room) Derek: That was one hard fall. What do you see? Izzie: Subdural bleed. Alex: With midline shift. Derek: We have to evacuate this now. Anywhere else you have to be, Dr. Stevens, or are you in? Izzie: Brian surgery? Derek: Mm-hmm. Izzie: Are you kidding me? Derek: That's what I thought. (Cut to Meredith's house) (There are people everywhere. Meredith comes in and looks around. She walks through the crowd. Some drunk hands her a Tiffany's style lamp. She unplugs it. She finds George.) Meredith: Where is Izzie?! George: She didn't clear it with you? Meredith: This was supposed to be a meet-the-boyfriend get together little thing. George: Izzie has a lot of friends. (They move through the crowd and continue fighting) Meredith: Izzie doesn't know this many people. George: I told her to clear it with you. Meredith: I can't handle this. George: You want me to kick everyone out? I'm gonna kick everyone out. (They turn to see Cristina drunk and dancing) Cristina: Baby! You made it! Woo! Meredith: Screw it. Hold this. (She gives George the lamp) Meredith: And give me this. (She takes the bottle of tequila from George. She goes over to Cristina and joins in the dancing and drinking) Cristina: Hi, baby! Cristina: George! George, come here. (He shakes his head. Meredith and Cristina yell at him to join them. He does. He stands between them. Meredith hands him the bottle, he takes a long drink and starts dancing, between Meredith and Cristina) (Cut to O.R.) Derek: See it? Alex: It's hard to miss. Derek: A little more than he bargained for. Alex: Maybe he's lucky. Maybe this is his way out of the hole. Derek: The hole? Interesting expression. (Izzie looks on) Alex: My father was into smack pretty heavy. He was a musician. It's tolerated in his line of work, not good for the family at home. (Long pause and exchanged looks) (Cut to Meredith's house) (Meredith, George and Cristina are drinking and playing cards) Meredith: Why did we want to be surgeons anyway? George: Surgery is very serious business (Cristina burps loudly. She has two cards stuck to her face) George: Full house! Cristina: (Evil laughter) Royal flush. Get naked, baby boy. Sexy! (Cristina throws down her cards. George reluctantly takes off his shirt) Meredith: Surgery is stupid. It's stupid. It's stupid. Cristina: Give me that. You're drunk. Meredith: I'm not driving. I'm not on call. I'm in my own house. My life is crap. And it's my party and I'll get drunk if I want to. (George is still trying to get his shirt off. Hank walks by) Hank: Is, um, Izzie Stevens? Cristina: Oh, you must be Hank. (She laughs and stands up) He's very large and hockey-like. No, Izzie�s not here right now. (Cristina leaves the room) George: You and Izzie will give birth to very tall, blonde people, like Barbies. Hank: Izzie said she was going to be at home. She didn't say there was going to be a party. Meredith: which pisses both of us off. Would you like some tequila? It helps. Hank: When do you think she's gonna get here? Meredith: Don't know. But we're low on ice, Hank. Hank: I'm serious. Meredith: So am I. We're interns, Hank. Hospital owns us. It's what we do. (Hank smiles and leaves) George: Bye. Meredith: Nice to meet ya. (Cut to scrub room) Derek: can you guys see him through recovery? Alex: Yeah, I'll take it. Izzie: No, I can do it. Alex: its okay, Stevens. Izzie: No, he's my patient now, too. Alex: No, I got it. See your hockey player. I'm serious. Izzie: Yeah, okay. I guess. Thanks, Alex. Alex: No problem. (Alex leaves. Izzie seems surprised) (Cut to outside of the hospital) (Izzie walks out and sees Hank. They hug) Izzie: Hey! Hank: Hey. Izzie: What are you doing here? (She kisses him) Izzie: I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to call. (Kiss) My patient needed brain surgery. (They start walking) Like, we were inside his brain. How cool is that? Hank: (Chuckles) Oh my god. There was a party at your house. Izzie: Yeah, did you get a chance to hang out? I wanted you to meet some of the people I work with. Hank: I don't care about the people you work with. I just want to see you. Izzie: Hmm, well you didn't mind meeting the people I worked with when they were models. Hank: Yeah, well, when they were models, you actually showed up to your own parties. Izzie: Yeah. (Long pause) This is my life now, Hank. I work 100 hour weeks. I can't always show up to my own parties on time. My patients have to come first. Hank: Yeah, I just flew across the entire country and there's 100 people at your house. Izzie: Yeah, 100 people who understand what I do all day. I shouldn't have to apologize for that. Hank: No, you shouldn't. (Izzie sighs) Izzie: Look, let's just go by the party for a little while. You'll really like everyone once you get a chance to know them. Hank: I should just go. Izzie: Hank, come on. Hank: I'll call you. (He kisses her and walks away) (Izzie watches him leave and walks back to the hospital) (Cut to Burke in a scrub room looking contemplative) (Cut to Meredith's house) (She's outside, swaying drunkenly and drinking. Derek is watching her) Derek: You know, in some states, you could get arrested for that. (She walks towards him) Derek: So you blew me off for a bottle of tequila. Tequila's no good for ya. It doesn't call. It doesn't write. It isn't nearly as much fun to wake up to. (She smiles and pulls him in for a kiss. They kiss a few times) Meredith: Take me for a ride, Derek. (Cut to Derek's car) (Derek is in the driver�s seat. Meredith is straddling him. He's not wearing a shirt and she's wearing her bra. Derek pulls his shirt over her shoulders.) Derek: You know, it sounds like the party's winding down. Listen to me. We should probably sneak inside, though. Meredith: We've done enough sneaking for the night. It was good sneaking, but enough sneaking. Derek: Yeah, I�d say we're pretty good sneakers. (They start kissing. There's tapping on the window. It's Dr. Bailey.) Bailey: You mind moving this tail wagon? You're blocking me in. Derek: Apparently not good enough. (Cut to next morning at Meredith's house) (George walks through the debris of snacks and bottles over to the couch. He hands Meredith, who is lying on the floor, a mug) George: When's your meeting with the chief? (He sits down, throws something off to the side) Meredith: In an hour. (Izzie comes home, looks around, shocked) Izzie: Holy mother of destruction. Meredith: You missed Doctor-palooza. (Izzie takes off her shoes and walks towards them) Izzie: Apparently, you didn't. Meredith: I should probably never speak to you again. IZZIE: Ugh, I'm so sorry, Meredith. I had no idea it was gonna get so... Meredith: It's okay. Really, I don't care. What would I be doing anyway? George: Preparing for your career-altering meeting? Sorry. Meredith: That heart wall shouldn't have torn. (Izzie picks up a beer) Izzie: Anything in the patient's history? Meredith: Husband says she was in the best shape of her life. She lost 100 pounds last year. Izzie: 100 pounds in a year, how's her muscle mass? (Izzie drinks) George: Do you even know whose that was? Izzie: I�m hoping it was yours. George: (looks disgusted) No. (Cut to George, Cristina and Izzie standing in hospital outside of Meredith's meeting) Izzie: So, what do you think? Cristina: 50 says Meredith gets tossed out on her ass and Burke walks away clean. George: Please be nice to her. (Cut to inside the meeting) Meredith: So, I have done a lot of research on this and Dr. Burke has been kind enough to help me. And I understand my responsibility, and what I've done wrong here. However, I do think the patient's history is significant in this case. She still weighs 200 pounds, which is why no one even noticed it, but with that kind of a weight drop, it doesn't matter how much you weigh, technically, you're anorexic. Burke: So, along with all that fat, she was losing muscle, heart muscle. Webber: That certainly could be a reason for a small poke to become a large tear. Lawyer: That still doesn't change the fact that the small poke wasn't reported by Dr. Grey at the time of the occurrence. Meredith: And if I could change that... Lawyer: And you can't, but you've left yourself and the hospital to a tremendous amount of liability. Burke: No, not if the patient�s weight loss caused the problem. Lawyer: I'm sorry. I have no choice here. Burke: I've spoken to the husband. And I believe as long as his wife remains s*ab. Lawyer: I can't take your beliefs to the bank, Dr. Burke. Dr. Grey made a huge error. Burke: And she reported it. Lawyer: Too late. And in front of the patient's husband. Burke: But she reported it. She spoke up. (pause) Five years ago, as a CT fellow, I had a nagging feeling that I didn't check the body cavity of a lung patient closely enough before I closed. The patient seemed fine post-op and I was in a hurry. And yesterday, you and Dr. Bailey pulled a towel out from under that patient's lung. Why didn't I report it at the appropriate time? Maybe because I was afraid that I would be called into a meeting where some hospital lawyer's fear of liability could end my career. Even great doctors make mistakes. And when we do, we've got to have a chance to be able to speak up without fear of retribution. Or everyone suffers. Dr. Grey spoke up. MVO: Responsibility. It really does suck. (Cut to Meredith leaving the meeting) (She starts to walk towards the three when intercepted by Derek) Derek: Meredith, you okay? Meredith: Yeah. One month probation. Derek: Good. That's good. (He leaves) Meredith: Burke saved my ass in there. Bailey: Don't you all have something better to do? C'mon people, move! (George, Cristina, Izzie and Meredith hurry away. Bailey pulls Cristina aside) Bailey: He was always gonna tell them about the towel. Just wanted to wait for the right time. Information is power. (Bailey walks off. Cristina looks in Burke's direction. He shakes Webber's hand and turns around, seeing Cristina. She runs off in the opposite direction to get back to work) (Cut to nursing home) (Caretaker is watching Ellis sign forms) MVO: Unfortunately, once you get past the age of braces and training bras, responsibility doesn't go away. (Cut to hospital, Frost's room) Alex: Jerry, this is Sloane. She's here to talk to you, if you want, about options for rehab. MVO: It can't be avoided. (Cut to Mrs. Drake's room) (Burke is sitting next to her bed) Burke: Mrs. Drake, I cannot begin to tell you how truly sorry I am. MVO: Either someone makes us face it, or we suffer the consequences. (Cut to Derek jogging up a staircase. He runs into Bailey, they exchange awkward looks) (Cut to Izzie walking past Mr. Sterman's room) Mr. Sterman: Izzie! I did it. I pooped! Izzie: (laughs) All right! (Alex walks up behind her and taps her on the shoulder) Alex: Missed your party? Izzie: Life as a surgeon. Alex: And loving every minute of it. (They split up and walk in different directions) (Cut to on-call room) (Burke is taking off his shoes and shirt. Cristina walks in. They see each other. She locks the door) MVO: And still, adulthood has its perks. Cristina: Thanks for the coffee. (Burke walks over and kisses her. They kiss passionately and begin to undress each other) (Cut to Meredith, George, Cristina, and Izzie cleaning up after the party) MVO: I mean the shoes, the sex, the no parents anywhere telling you what to do. That�s pretty damn good.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x05 - Shake Your Groove Thing"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x06: If Tomorrow Never Comes Original Airdate: 5/1/2005 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Scott Brazil (Scene: Sunrise) MVO: A couple hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. "Never leave that till tomorrow," he said, "which you can do today." (Scene: Meredith lying in bed, staring at the ceiling. It is storming outside and her alarm starts buzzing.) MVO: This is the man who discovered electricity. You'd think more of us would listen to what he had to say. (Scene: George walking through the hall towards Meredith's room with two cups of coffee. Izzie comes out into the hall. George spills the coffee on himself.) MVO: I don't know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I'd say it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of pain, fear of rejection. Izzie: Wouldn't it be easier to just ask her out? (George walks away and Meredith hits snooze again.) George: She's gonna be late. Izzie: Maybe not. George: We should wait for her. Izzie: Definitely not. I'm not her mother, and you are not her boyfriend. Not yet, anyway. George: Stop, ok? I told you I'm not interested. Izzie: Life is short, George. Do you really want to die before you ever ask her out? George: I do not want to ask her out. Izzie: Do you really want to die a liar? George: I'm not...I'm not dying. (Seattle scenes) MVO: Sometimes, the fear is just of making a decision. (Scene: SGH parking lot, Meredith is rushing) MVO: Because, what if you're wrong? What if you're making a mistake you can't undo? (Derek arrives and parks next to Meredith) Meredith: Crap. Derek: Crap? Meredith: Hi. I'm late. Derek: You're avoiding me. Meredith: Yes, but also late. Derek: Ok, are we going to talk about this? Meredith: No. Derek: About us and Bailey and what she saw? Meredith: I don't need to talk about it. I experienced it, naked. Derek: This is getting complicated. Meredith: Complicated for me. I'm the intern sleeping with the attending. Bailey isn't speaking to me anymore. Derek: Not that that's a bad thing. If I was a better guy, I'd walk away. Meredith: Yes, you would. Derek: Do you want me to be a better guy? Meredith: Yes. (They enter hospital. He pushes elevator button.) Meredith: No. Crap. I'm late. (Meredith walks away.) Derek: Take your time. Think about it. (Scene: Cristina putting pants on. Her and Burke obviously just finished having sex in a lab room.) Cristina: That was definitely worth being late. Burke: (Sighs) Thanks. Is this a...? Should we talk about this? Cristina: Yeah, definitely. (Cristina leaves then enters the locker rooms. Meredith is inside.) Meredith: You're late. Cristina: So are you. Meredith: I know, and I can't afford to piss off Bailey any more. Do you think she told anyone? Cristina: About you and McDreamy? Meredith: Yeah. Cristina: No, he's her boss too. Meredith: If they find out, what can they...? Can they kick me out, or...? Cristina: No... Not officially. You'll just get edged out, blacklisted, banned from his surgeries, passed over for chief resident. (Sighs) It'll be humiliating, but you'll live. Meredith: I have to end it. I definitely have to end it. I have to end it, right? Cristina: Meredith, shut up. Meredith: What? (Meredith and Cristina are rushing upstairs and through hallway.) Meredith: Did you seriously just tell me to shut up? Cristina: Oh, please. You got a hot doctor who like to make you open up, and say "ahh." It's the American dream, stop whining about it. Meredith: No. No good can come from sleeping with your boss. Bailey: Cristina, you're late. Cristina: So is Meredith. MVO: Whatever it is we're afraid of, one thing holds true. That, by the time the pain of not doing a thing gets worse than the fear of doing it, it can feel like we're carrying around a giant tumor. Bailey: When we walk in this door, you will maintain decorum. You will not laugh, vomit, or drop you jaw. Are we understood? (All open door and enter room 2111) Izzie: Why would we laugh? Alex: Oh, just you wait. Bailey: Good morning, Miss Connors. Miss Connors: Good Morning. (Woman is lying in bed with an extremely large tumor.) George: What is it? Cristina: Tumor. MVO: And you thought I was speaking metaphorically. (Seattle Scenes) (Annie Connor's room) Alex: Good morning, Annie. How are you? This is Dr. Bailey and these are my fellow interns. Bailey: Dr. Karev, we refer to patients as "mister"... Annie: I told him to call me "Annie." "Miss Connors" makes me feel old and fat, which I am, but why feel that way? (Burke enters) Burke: Good morning. Alex: Annie, this is Dr. Burke (Whispers) Awesome surgeon. Bailey: Dr. Karev. Alex: Annie Connors is a 43-year-old woman who presented last night with progressive shortness of breath for the past three months. Found to have a very large tumor of unknown origin pressed against her diaphragm. sab vital signs. Scheduled for CT this morning, sir. Burke: Thank you, Dr. Karev. (To Annie) Are you at all claustrophobic? Annie: I've been housebound for the last year. How claustrophobic could I be? Burke: All right then. Dr. Stevens is going to take you up for a CT. It'll give us a better look at the tumor, and we'll know how to proceed. Annie: Could someone tell my mom? She'll worry if she gets back and I'm not here. Burke: Yeah, of course. Of course. Annie: And would it be possible for Alex to take me instead? I mean, he...He's just so fun to look at. Alex: (Laughing) Annie. Burke: Sure. Sure, Ms. Connors. Excuse me. (Leave Ms. Connor's room) Izzie: How much do you think it weighs? George: 60 pounds. Izzie: More. She's carrying a whole extra person. Cristina: This one's going in the books. I've got to get in. Izzie: I almost did. Have you ever seen Alex like that? He actually seemed sincere. Meredith: "Seemed" being the operative word. Alex: He was on call last night when she came in. I am never leaving this place again. Bailey: Let's move, people. Ms. Connor's surgery, should we choose to proceed, will take most, if not all, of the surgeons off the floor, which means you people will have to work extra hard not to kll anyone, �cause we won't be there to fix your mistakes. Cristina: I really want in on this. Burke: I thought we weren't talking. Cristina: I'm not talking. I'm just saying. Burke: Find her mother, get a family history, and I'll tell Bailey. (Another room) Izzie: Mr. Harper had a coronary bypass yesterday. His blood pressure, currently 100/65. It was running low overnight down to 70/30, but responded to medication. Postoperative labs show a crit of 30 and normal coagulation. Chest-tube output has halted over the last two hours. Bailey: What's you plan? Izzie: Chest x-ray and check the tube for possible occlusion. Bailey: Good. (To wife) He's doing fine. Mrs. Harper: Thank you. (Scene: Walking down stairs in SGH) George: I know you think I like Meredith but I don't like Meredith. Izzie: What? George: No. I like Meredith. Obviously, I like Meredith. I just...I don't have a thing for her. Izzie: Ok. George: It's just this morning...I know you were probably just teasing, But I don't want you to say anything like that to her. Because you know, we live together, and that'd be awkward. Izzie: George, stop talking. George: Ok, then. (Scene: Hospital room where a man is trying to walk but is having difficulty.) Bailey: Morning. Derek: Mr. Levangie, this is Dr. Bailey and her fine staff of surgical interns. (Derek, Meredith and Bailey all exchange glances.) Mr. Levangie: Welcome to hell, kids. Bailey: Who's presenting? George: Edward Levangie is a 63-year-old man admitted for pain management for Dyskinesia. He's been sab since last night, and responding to the bolus injections. Bailey: Izzie, possible treatments? Izzie: For Parkinson's disease? Um, deep brain stimulation has shown... Derek: Not for Parkinson's, for spinal pain. Izzie: Oh, um... Meredith: Intraspinal catheter. That way, he can have constant pain medication. Derek: Excellent. This is Dr. Grey. She's gonna prep you for the procedure and assist. Derek: (Pager beeps) Excuse me. Bailey: You make yourselves busy, I'll catch up with you. (Bailey follows Derek out. They are in elevator alone.) Derek: Miranda. Bailey: Excuse me? Derek: Well, that's your name, right? It's on your jacket. (She looks smug) All right, fine. I'll just call you Bailey then. Bailey: You think you're charming in that talented, neurotic, overly moussed hair sort of way, good for you. But if you think I'm going to stand back and watch while you favor her... Derek: I don't favor her. She's good. Bailey: I'm sure she is. (Elevator opens and Bailey gets out) Derek: You know, can I point out that, technically, I'm your boss? Bailey: You don't scare me. Look, I'm not going to advertise your extracurricular activities with my intern. However, the next time I see you favoring Meredith Grey in any way, I'll make sure she doesn't see the inside of on OR for a month. Just for the sake of balance. (Bailey walks away and elevator closes with Derek inside.) (Alex is getting Annie ready for her CT.) CT Tech: We're all set, doc. Alex: Ok. (To Annie) There's going to be a microphone in there for you in case you get scared or you want to get out, but, um you know, try not to do that, because then we're going to have to start all over again. Annie: I'm fine. I'll be fine. Alex: I know you're going to be fine, because I'm going to be right over there behind that glass, waiting for you. All right? Annie: Ok. Alex: You ready? Are you really ready? Let's do this. (Pushes button) See ya. (Alex goes into the operator room, his pager makes a noise, he slaps it.) Alex: Oh, hey, man, you got an extra battery? CT Tech: Unbelievable. Alex: Oh, I know, right. CT Tech: I've never seen anything like this. God. Alex: Well, what I don't understand...is how a person lets it get like that. (Annie can hear Alex speaking) I mean, man, that is a whole lot of nasty. CT Tech: Maybe she's afraid of doctors. Poor thing. Alex: Poor thing? Please. If you're afraid of doctors, you take a pill. She's just sick, like, warped, you know? Seriously, I don't know how she lives with herself. (Scene: Cristina talking to Mrs. Connors in the hospital lobby.) Mrs. Connors: Well, at first, we thought she was just putting on weight. When we realized what was happening, I tried to get her to go to the doctor, but she was scared. And, the bigger it got, the less she wanted to go. And she never really felt all that sick until last night. She couldn't breathe. Cristina: Because the tumor was crushing her lungs. Mrs. Connors: Yes, well, I called 911. It just seemed like the right thing to do. Cristina: You know, the right thing to do would have been to call a year ago. Thank you. (Mr. Levangie's room) Meredith: Ok, Mr. Levangie. We're going to get you more comfortable, ok? I'm going to go downstairs and I'll be back up shortly. Mr. Levangie: Ok Meredith: Ok. (Meredith leaves; daughter follows her into the hall) Ms. Levangie: Excuse me. I'm sorry, doctor... Meredith: Grey. Ms. Levangie: My dad seems to like you. He's always liked skinny blondes. Is that rude? I'm sorry. I'm so tired. Meredith: Is there something...? Ms. Levangie: I was wondering if you would talk to him. Meredith: About? Ms. Levangie: Brain surgery. The doctor mentioned it, and I've read about it online. If it worked, it could help with most of his symptoms, not just his pain. Meredith: Is he a candidate? I don't... Ms. Levangie: He is, but he's afraid of it. Surgery on his back, he can understand, but his brain...And there are risks. But his quality of life... Meredith: There isn't any. Ms. Levangie: And, it keeps getting worse. I'm getting married next month. I already lost my mom. And I want him to walk...I want him with me. Maybe that's selfish, but...you don't know what it's like having a parent...Watching him... Meredith: I do. I do know what it's like. I'll see what I can do. Ms. Levangie: Thanks Meredith: You're welcome. Ms. Levangie: Thank you. (Meredith walks away. Bailey, Derek and Burke are examining x-rays from Annie Connors.) Burke: The right hemidiaphragm is so high that it's completely displacing her lung tissue. Derek: It's infiltrated her spinal canal in three places. We should start there. It's going to take 3 or 4 hours to get around those nerves. Burke: I'd prefer to start in front, and then flip her. You never know what kind of vessels are involved, how intertwined they are. I'm going to need a good head start. Derek: I should really go with the spine fresh, if I miss a step, she's paralyzed. Burke: If I don't relieve the pressure on her lungs, she'll be dad. So, she won't mind if she can't walk. Bailey: Do you think she really wants to live? Come on. She's been housebound. She's been living under this thing, just watching it grow for how long? She doesn't seem stupid. Doesn't even seem all that scared. Why would anyone wait this long unless they wanted to die? Derek: People do things every day that they know could kll them. Doesn't mean they want to die. Bailey: What are her chances of surviving the surgery? Burke: Slightly better than if we do nothing. Bailey: So is it worth it? (Burke looks at her, Derek sighs) Hey, come on. You were already thinking it, I'm just saying. Burke: She's 43. It's worth a try. (Burke leaves) Derek: Ha! Morning. (Derek and Bailey leave, Meredith is waiting in the hall.) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd. Mr. Levangie, the Parkinson's patient, is he a good candidate for DBS? Derek: Yes, but he's not interested. Meredith: Ok, but I think it's worth talking to him again, pushing him. Derek: We're talking about a brain surgery that is performed while the patient is wide awake, a risk of paralysis, a risk of death. And, the patient doesn't want it. It is not my job to push him into anything and it's definitely not yours. Meredith: Ok. Derek: Since you clearly uncomfortable with my decision in this case, it's probably best you don't scrub in. Meredith: But... Derek: It's a minor procedure. You won't be missed. (Meredith walks away) Derek: (To Bailey) You know, they call you the nzi. Bailey: So I've heard. (Derek and Bailey walk away in opposite directions.) (Annie Connors room, Burke and Alex are there. Mrs. Connors is making the bed. ) Burke: I won't lie to you. The surgery is going to be long and difficult, but we have an extremely capable surgical team, and I can... Annie: Am I going to die? Burke: There's always that risk but if we don't do the surgery... Annie: I'll definitely die. Burke: Yes. Annie: Soon? Burke: Yes. Annie: Mom, the room's clean. Mrs. Connors: Ok, honey, ok. Annie: Mom! Mrs. Connors: She'll have the surgery. Annie: Mom! Mrs. Connors: No. No, Annie. She will have the surgery. Annie: I guess I'll have the surgery. Burke: I think that is a very wise decision. Annie: On one condition. I don't want him there. (Points at Alex) Alex: I'm sorry, Annie. Did I upset you in some way? Annie: If he's in the surgery, I'm not having it. (Pause while Burke and Alex look at her and each other) That's how I live with myself. Burke: Ok, Miss Connors. (Turns to leave) Dr. Karev. (Annie and her mom hold hands) (Burke and Karev walk through hallway) Burke: What the hell did you do? Alex: Nothing. I-I don't know. Man. The mike must have been on. I was talking to the tech guy... Burke: If anything goes wrong, anything, you are 60 percent more likely to be sued if you've offended the patient. 60%. Alex: I never would have said that stuff. The mike shouldn't have been on. I didn't realize she could hear me. Burke: Well, now you won't realize you chance to scrub in. You're banned from the OR. Mine or anyone else's. All week. (Cristina walks up) Cristina: I got the history on the tumor. It's been growing for a year and a half. A year and a half and it's the first time she's even had it looked at. It's like she's fatally lazy. (Burke walks away, shaking his head) Alex: Why doesn't she get banned? (Burke grabs George who is walking by) Burke: Go prep Annie Connors for surgery. You're scrubbing in with Cristina. George: Really? I mean, thank you. Ok. (George is in Annie Connor's room, prepping her for surgery) George: We just need to recheck your labs and get an EKG, so I just need to take a little blood. Dr. Burke is great, and Dr. Bailey. I know you're probably scared. Annie: That's ok, kitten. You can just do your job. You don't have to talk to the fat, nasty tumor lady. I mean, I let it get this bad. How much sympathy do I deserve? George: Why did you let it get this bad? Annie: You're the first person since I got here to ask me that. George: Well, I guess it's just like the elephant in the room. Annie: Elephant? George: I mean... Annie: It's more like a giant sow, don't you think? (They smile at each other) Every time I went to the hospital, someone died. All four of my grandparents, then my dad. My best friend's mom, my baby sister. They all went in, never came out. So I put it off. George: You know, you're not the only one to put things off. I mean I never do anything till the last possible minute. Annie: Like what? George: Well...I've had this thing for my roommate since, like, day one, and I just...I can't tell her. She probably wouldn't go out with me, anyway, but...How do I know that for sure, if I don't ever ask? Annie: Seriously? You're equating your pathetic love life with my record-breaking tumor? Seriously? (Scene: Outdoor lunch tables) Meredith: It's just that he blatantly favors me in front of her and then blatantly dismisses me. Cristina: How do you know he was favoring you? Look, you've got a brain. You got into this program. Just because Shepherd wants to munch your cookies doesn't mean you didn't deserve what you worked for. Meredith: But he's making me look bad. I have to end it. Cristina: Right. Meredith: It's over. Cristina: Uh, huh. Alex: Is it true you get to scrub in on that tumor? Cristina: Don't sit here. Izzie: You get to scrub in? How psyched are you? Cristina: On a scale of one to ecstatic, ecstatic. Alex: It's unbelievable. You know what I think? I think Burke wants to get into your scrubs. Cristina: Why are you sitting here? Alex: He kicked me off that surgery for the same crap you pull every day. Cristina: You know what. If I stuck this fork into his thigh, would I get in trouble? Meredith: Not if you make it look like an accident. George: Hey! Izzie: Hi. Alex: Thank God, man. I'm drowning in estrogen here. George: (To Meredith) You look...is everything ok? Meredith: Shepherd's a jackass. Izzie: Really? I think he's kind of great. Cristina: He reamed her out in front of Bailey. Izzie: Why? Meredith: Cause he's a jackass. George: Oh. (Throws his tray) Well, bad days are...bad. Maybe tonight, uh, if, you know, if you drink alcohol, I mean, we could all of us, I mean, go out and drink alcohol...because of the bad day. Meredith: (Pager beeps) I got to go. Alex: Dude. George: Shut up. (Cristina and Alex laugh at George, Izzie pats his shoulder) (Mr. Levangie's room) Derek: How's your back? Mr. Levangie: Still good. Derek: Good. (To daughter) How are you? Good? (To Mr. Levangie) Can you lean forward for me? I just want to check something. Does that feel ok? Mr. Levangie: Yeah. Derek: Right here? (Meredith enters) Meredith: Did you page? Derek: Mr. Levangie, have you given any more thought about the other surgical options we discussed this morning? Mr. Levangie: What? Why would I? I already told you no. I'm letting you cut into my back, but that's not enough for you. All you guys ever want to do is cut. Ms. Levangie: Dad, just listen to what he has to say. Mr. Levangie: I already listened. Derek: Sir, there's a very small window of opportunity here. You know, once the Parkinson's progresses to a point of dementia, there's, you know, you're no longer a candidate for DBS. Mr. Levangie: and when I'm no longer a candidate, is that when you people will leave me the hell alone! What? Do I have to start drooling, and forget my name to get a little peace and quiet? Derek: All right. I'll check back with you later. Try to get some rest. (Derek walks away, Meredith lingers in the hall.) Ms. Levangie: Dad, you're being unreasonable. The doctors are only trying to help you. Mr. Levangie: It's my damn life, and it's my damn brain. You want me to let them cut up my brain while I'm lying her awake, for what? Ms. Levangie: Dad! Mr. Levangie: I'll be at your wedding. I will sit in the back. Your uncle will walk you down the aisle. I know it's not perfect, but it's life. Life is messy sometimes. Ms. Levangie: I know that. (Daughter leaves) Mr. Levangie: (To Meredith) If she knows, then what the hell are we still talking for, huh? Why in hell can't she drop it? Meredith: It is your life. But it's her life too. And you have a chance to get better here. And all she's asking you to do is try. (Meredith leaves) (Burke, George and Cristina are scrubbing in for Annie Connors' surgery.) Cristina: If they pull this off, I'm totally calling Oprah. (Bailey enters) Bailey: You two been working out? George: Um, sometime I jog, and I try to take the stairs whenever possible. (Derek enters) Cristina: Why? Bailey: See that large pile of tumor? You're going to be retracting it for the next 14 hours, so I'm just saying I hope you have strong backs. (Meredith enters) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Yes? Meredith: Mr. Levangie has agreed to DBS. If we do it today. If he leaves, he won't come back. Burke: Don't worry, Dr. Shepherd. It'll take hours before we get around to the spine. I'll page you. Derek: All right, then. (Leaving) Let's do it. (Meredith and Bailey are alone in the scrub room) Meredith: Dr. Bailey. I didn't know...that he was my boss, when I met him. I didn't know. Bailey: I don't care. Meredith: Really? Oh, well, you sort of seemed to not be talking to me, so I ... Bailey: You see this, what's happening right here? This is the problem with you sleeping with my boss. Not whether or not you know him before, but how it affects my day. And me standing here talking to you about your sex life affects my day. And the longer this little fling goes on, the more favors you get over the others, who are fighting tooth and nail just to make it through this program without any assistance. When those people start finding out what's going on and they don't want to work with you and talk to you or look at you, and they start bitching and moaning at me, the more it affects my day. So, no, Dr. Grey, I don't care what you know, or when you know it. Are we understood? Meredith: Yes. Bailey: Good. (Meredith leaves and Bailey continues scrubbing in) (Seattle Scenes) (Hallway of SGH) Alex: This sucks. Izzie: Yeah well, I'm not a real fan of yours, either. Alex: Not you. This. Everyone is scrubbed in somewhere. Izzie: Bright side, we have the run of the floor. Alex: Great! Want to do it in the stairwell? I'm just saying you never know what could happen. (Patient in bed in hallway barfs on Alex) Alex: I'm changing. Izzie: I'll page you if I need you. Alex: You do that. Izzie: (To patient) You are so my favorite person today. (Annie's surgery) Nurse: We need to hang another bag of O-neg. Burke: Cauterizing the small bleeders to keep my visual field clean. George: (To Cristina) God, is your back klling you? Cristina: George, shut up. We're in here. (Izzie with Mrs. Harper in room) Izzie: Mrs. Harper, let me show you these chest films. We were able to relieve the obstruction of his chest tube, so the buildup of fluid you see should resolve itself soon. (Mrs. Harper looks lost) Which translates as he should be home in no time. Mrs. Harper: He was making waffles. Izzie: I'm sorry? Mrs. Harper: He was making waffles. He was missing batter, and...and then, he was on the floor. Nurse: Izzie, we need a central line run in 204. Izzie: Page Dr. Karev, will you? Nurse: He's not answering. Izzie: (To Mrs. Harper) I'm so sorry. I'll be back. (Alex is in locker room, takes his shirt off, there is a woman there.) Alex: Like what you see, right? (She leaves quickly, his beeper says "change battery") (Mr. Levangie's surgery) Nurse: Neuro sponge Derek: How you doing, Mr. Levangie? Mr. Levangie: All right. Nurse: Drill bit's charged. Mr. Levangie: Where's blondie? Meredith: I'm right here. Can't you see me? Mr. Levangie: I'm shaky. I'm not blind. Anything goes wrong here, I'm blaming you. Meredith: Ok, in that case, I'll stay where you can see me. Now we just have to drill a hole and try to find the spot that controls the motor function. Mr. Levangie: You can't see my brain from there. Aren't you supposed to be learning something? Meredith: I'm good, right here. (She holds his hands) Nurse: EEG waves look good. Derek: Ok, Mr. Levangie. Just take a couple deep breaths. Focus on the pretty girl. Ok, this is going to sound really scary, but try and relax. You shouldn't feel a thing. (Derek is drilling into his head) (Izzie with patient) Izzie: Any pain here? Here? Patient: No. Izzie: Ok. (Pager beeps) Tyler: Dr. Stevens, I need you to check the x-ray in 2103. 2118 needs post-op notes, and Jane's wondering if you want her to start feeding 2112. I'm going on break. Izzie: Ok, yeah, before you do that, could you page Dr. Karev again? Tyler: I already paged him. Izzie: Yeah, Again? (Alex enters gallery of Annie's surgery) Alex: Excuse me. How is it? Doctor: Long and slow. I don't envy those two. They've been holding that thing for eight hours. Their arms have to be ready to fall off. (Alex's pager's light is blinking) (OR) Burke: Look at the size of this artery. Bailey: My God. It's as thick as a thumb. You ever seen a vessel this size? Burke: No. This thing's just feeding on all her blood. Bailey: We need more O-negative. Nurse: I'll call the blood bank. (George stretches and drops the tumor) Burke: Damn it, O'Malley. Do you want me to kll this patient? George: No, I ...sorry. Burke: I mean, is the art of retracting just too much for you? George: No, I was, uh...um...I had an itch. (Gallery) Doctor: Way to go, George. Nicely done. (Mr. Levangie's OR. Doctor is having Mr. Levangie mimic her.) Doctor: Just keep trying, Mr. Levangie. Mimic my motions. You can do it. Meredith: You're doing great, Mr. Levangie. Just a little longer. Mr. Levangie: Oh, damn it! Doctor: Take a breath and try again. One more time, Mr. Levangie. Meredith: The probe is almost in. You'll know it when we find the right spot. (Mr. Levangie stops shaking and mimics the doctor.) Doctor: Well, how about that? Derek: There it is. Mr. Levangie: I'll be a son of a bitch. (Outside the OR, pushing Mr. Levangie to his room) Derek: Bailey was on the warpath. I was trying to protect you. Meredith: You trying to protect me is why she's on the warpath. You can't do me favors. You can't ask me to scrub in when I haven't earned it. Derek: Ok, ok. Meredith: And you can't treat me like crap when I haven't earned that either. Derek: Ok. Meredith: I can take care of myself. I got myself into this mess, and I... Derek: And you'll get yourself out? Meredith: I don't... know that yet. (Derek pager goes off, they arrive at the elevator) Meredith: Don't let me keep you. Derek: you did great work here today. Meredith: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Yeah? Meredith: Sorry I called you a jackass. Derek: You didn't. Meredith: I did. Twice. Mr. Levangie: Tell you what, blondie. If you don't marry him, I will. (Izzie walking down stairs and enters hallway. Her pager goes off again.) (Mr. Harper's room) Mrs. Harper: No, no, no, Jimmy! No, no, Jimmy, no! Izzie: What we got? Nurse: Pressure plummeted to 64/22, and he has runs of V-tach that aren't perfusing. CVP is sky-high. Izzie: Give him dopamine, tin mikes. Tyler: He's already maxed out. The resident was here an hour ago but I can't reach him now. Izzie: Of course you can't. Mrs. Harper: Do something! What's the matter with you? Izzie: Get her out of here! Mrs. Harper: No, no! Nurse: Mrs. Harper, you have to get out of here. Izzie: Does he have a myocardial ischemia? Doctor: No, it's a clot. Big one. Izzie: Page someone. Doctor: It's tamponade. He'll be dad before they get here. Nurse: You have to open him up, right here, right now. Mrs. Harper: You said he was ok! Izzie: Get out of here now! Nurse: You have to cut. Izzie: I can't. I've never seen it done. I could kll him. Nurse: Do nothing, you'll k*ll him faster. What's your glove size? Izzie: Six. Oh, God. Oh, God. Nurse: Take a breath, Dr. Stevens. She has to move over there. Walter, move out of the way. (Izzie gets ready to cut Mr. Harper open) Cut the stitches and then the staples. Don't let them fall into the chest cavity. Izzie: Wait. I've never cracked a chest before. Oh, God. Oh, God. Nurse: No pulse. Wide complex rhythm. Izzie: I can't get this clot out. I need more suction. I need more. Nurse: He's bradying down. You have to get the clot out. Izzie: I can't get it. Screw it. I'm using my hand. (Izzie reaches into the chest cavity and pulls out the clot) Nurse: Oh, God, look at the size of that clot. Izzie: Anything? Nurse: No. You have to massage the heart, doctor. (Izzie starts massaging the heart) Izzie: Come on. Come on. Come on, please. Come on, Mr. Harper. Nurse: We have a pulse. (Annie's surgery, Derek enters) Derek: how's it going? Burke: It's more intertwined than the studies made it look. Bailey: Hang another bag, call the blood bank. We need more O-negative. Burke: I'm down 10 units of blood and I haven't even flipped her yet. Derek: Oh, wow. Look at that. Now how am I supposed to get around that artery? All right, then. Forceps. (Meredith enters gallery) Meredith: God, it's unbelievable. Alex: Right. Meredith: How did she live like that? Alex: Watch what you say. You never know who's listening. (Laughs) Look at George. He looks like he's about to fall in. Meredith: Are you really as shallow and callous as you seem? Alex: Oh, you want to go out for a drink later and hear about my secret pain? Meredith: Does that line ever work for you? Alex: Sometimes. Meredith: Oh. Must be because you look like that. Alex: Like what? (Laughs) So is that a yes? Meredith: No. I can't. I'm seeing someone. Alex: Look, if you don't want to go out with me, just say so. No need to lie. Meredith: Oh, ok. Well, I don't want to go out with you. But I think I really might be seeing someone. (Izzie enters the OR) Izzie: Mr. Harper, the post-op heart patient in 2114. I had to open his sternotomy bedside. (Everyone turns to look at her with a look of awe.) Burke: You what? All: What? (Gallery Alex gets up to leave.) Izzie: He had cardiac tamponade. His chest films were clean this morning. It just... It happened fast. He was in PEA. There was no time. Derek: (To Burke) Go ahead. I got it. We're ok here. Burke: Ok. Derek: I need some retraction. Pull back on the retractor. (Izzie is in scrub room leaving, Alex walks in.) Alex: (Yelling) You opened a heart bedside and you couldn't even page me? What needed all the glory for yourself, right? Izzie: (Yelling) I paged you 50 times. Do you have any idea what I have been through? (Alex looks at his pager) Alex: Oh, man. The battery. I forgot to change it. Izzie: You forgot? You forgot?! (Izzie throws his pager on the floor, breaking it. She then starts jumping up and down on it.) Izzie: You are hateful! You are a hateful, hateful, lazy, arrogant, hateful man! Hateful! (Izzie leaves) (The OR could overhear Izzie and Alex.) Derek: Never a dull moment here at Seattle Grace. (Blood vessel burst, squirting blood all over Derek and Bailey.) Derek: Oh! Bailey: Oh, my God. Derek: Get right in there. Bailey: She can't afford to lose this much blood. We need more blood. Derek: Get me some suction here. I can't see what I'm doing. Clamp, clamp, clamp, please. Is there any blood in the rapid infuser? Nurse: We're waiting on two units. Derek: What do you mean, waiting? Bailey: Well, we didn't anticipate this much blood loss. Nurse: They're on their way. Bailey: We prepped a double supply. We've used it all. Derek: What did you cut? Bailey: Nothing. It just blew. She came in with too much damage. The artery walls are too weak. (Alex is watching from the scrub room) Alex: Annie, come on. Bailey: Ten units of O-negative. Derek: I cannot see. George, give me your hand. Push right down here. Pull it towards you. Suction! Suction! Nurse: The pressure's dropping. Derek: She needs blood. Where the hell is the blood?! (Alex runs out of scrub room) Derek: Somebody grab that. Push it back, George. Come on. (Everyone is breathless) Oh, God. Just squeeze it off right there. Here we go. (Alex running through hallway runs into a woman carrying blood) Alex: Is that O-Negative for OR 1? Nurse: Uh-huh, OR 1. Alex: OR 1, right? I got it! I got it! (Alex runs through the hall with the blood) Derek: Some suction, please, in here, now. Come on. We're losing her now. Look at this. Look at his. Come on. (Starts CPR) (Mrs. Connor's is waiting in the waiting room) (Derek is still performing CPR) Derek: Oh, come on! Come on! (More CPR) Come on! (Stops CPR) Time of death is 11:42. (Alex runs in with the blood) Alex: I got it. MVO: The early bird catches the worm. (Burke is closing Mr. Harper) MVO: A stitch in time saves nine. Burke: Messy. Izzie: I'm sorry. Burke: Don't be. You saved his life. (Bailey and George go to tell Mrs. Connors about Annie) MVO: He who hesitates is lost. (Mrs. Connors covers her face, crying) (Mr. Levangie and Meredith are walking through the hall towards his daughter.) MVO: We can't pretend we haven't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still, sometime we have to see for ourselves. (Cristina is in on-call room stretching. Burke enters) Burke: I'm not doing you any more favors. This was it. Cristina: (Scoffing) I've been holding up 50 pounds of tumor for the past 12 hours. My back's going to need traction, and the patient died anyways. And you think you did me a favor? Burke: Look, I'm just...What is this...that we're doing here? What is it? Cristina: You need a definition? You really want to be that guy? MVO: We have to make our own mistakes. Burke: Lock the door. MVO: We have to learn our own lessons. (Alex and George walking through a hall) George: Have you seen Meredith? Alex: Save yourself the misery, man. She's off the market. George: What? No, that's not... We're just friends. Alex: Whatever. George: But she's not. I mean, if she was seeing someone, I live with her, I would know it. (George is home, carrying two beers to Meredith's room. He knocks only to find the door ajar and her not inside.) MVO: We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering. (Meredith is standing in the rain when Derek emerges from the hospital.) MVO: That waking is better than sleeping. Meredith: I, um, know this place where there's an amazing view of sunrise over the ferryboats. (She pulls a bottle of wine out of her bag) Derek: I have a thing for ferryboats. Meredith: I remember. (He opens the car door for her; she leans across and opens his door.) MVO: And that even the biggest failure, even the worst, most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x06 - If Tomorrow Never Comes"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x07: The Self Destruct Button Original Airdate: 5/8/2005 Written by: Kip Koenig Directed by: Darnell Martin (Meredith is in bed, naked, her alarm starts going off. Derek reaches around her to cuddle.) MVO: Ok, anyone who says you can sleep when you die, tell them to come talk to me after a few months as an intern. Of course, it's not just the job that keeps us up all night. Meredith: You have to get up now. Derek: What? My God, what time is it? (She rolls on top of him) Meredith: It's 5:20, and I have pre-rounds. And you have to leave before they see you. Derek: Oh, come on, now. Why don't you just let them see? (He rolls on top of her) Meredith: No! Derek: Please! Meredith: No, No! (Izzie is watching coffee percolate in the kitchen when George enters) George: You get any sleep? Izzie: Oh, she could oil the bedsprings as a courtesy or at least buy a padded headboard. George: So who's the guy? Izzie: You think it was just one guy doing all that work? George: Yeah, do you mind if I don't think about that? Izzie: Oh, jealous? George: I'm not jealous. Izzie: Well, I am. But at least I know she'll be having a long day at work. (Derek tries to sneak out but Izzie and George see him) Izzie: Well, at least we know brain surgery isn't his only skill. George: They can't be...He's her boss. Izzie: We're late. He's all of our boss. You know she has been scrubbing in a lot lately on his surgeries. George: No, Meredith wouldn't sleep with him just to...No. Izzie: Well, if she's not ashamed of it, why is she keeping it a secret? George: Maybe she didn't. Maybe it just happened. You know, spontaneously, last night. (Meredith enters kitchen) Meredith: Hi. Good morning. Izzie: Morning. Hey, so it sounded like you were having some pretty radical sex last night, all night long. Who was the guy? Meredith: no one you know. Izzie: We're late. Let's go. MVO: I mean, if life's so hard already, why do we bring more trouble down on ourselves? What's up with the need to ht the self-destruct button? (They arrive at work and get out of the car. Cristina is on the parking lot on her motorcycle.) Meredith: Yikes, wouldn't want to meet you in a dark alley. Cristina: Right back at ya. (Alex jogs up) Izzie: A run? You run? Alex: Every day, babe, every day. Meredith: Not suffering enough? Alex: What doesn't kll you, makes you stronger. Cristina: Don't go acting all indefatigable. You're dragging like the rest of us. Oh, what is that, professional weakness, Dr. Yang? Cristina: It's called the flu. Alex: Yeah. (Interns are in the locker room) George: I'm gonna need a major rush to make it through this day. I need a kick-ass surgery. Alex: Ooh, you a bad boy last night, George? Izzie: That would be Meredith. Alex: You a bad boy, Meredith? Cristina: Do tell. Meredith: Nothing to tell. Cristina: That says it all, huh? (Izzie slams locker door) Meredith: Sorry, I have a sex life. Alex: Don't apologize. Embrace it. Share it. Count me in. Izzie: Yeah, next time, just let me know if I need to go to a hotel so I can get some sleep. Meredith: Am I missing something? George: You were just a little loud. (Everyone leaves except Meredith and Cristina) Cristina: Do they know its McDreamy keeping them up all night? Meredith: I hope not. I already have Bailey riding me, I don't need my roommates thinking I'm getting special treatment. (All interns are in hallway with Bailey. Meredith yawns) Bailey: O'Malley, Yang, Karev, go on to clinic. (George and Bailey watch Derek putting in eye drops through the window) Bailey: O'Malley, patients are waiting. You two come with me. Izzie, you're hanging with me today. Good morning, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Dr. Bailey. Late night, Grey? Meredith: No, caffeine just hasn't kicked in yet. If you're at all religious, you would want to start praying it kicks in soon. There's a consult in the pit. Girl with a fever and abdominal pain. After that, Nicholas in 3311 needs his meds. Mr. Moeller's IV fell out, and he's a hard stick. Postops in 1337, 3342, 3363, and 2381. Meredith: 381. 3342, 3363, and 23... Bailey: Why are you still standing in front of me? (Meredith leaves) (To Izzie) You look more like me than you right now. What's the matter? Izzie: Nothing Woman: Help! I need immediate help. Bailey: What's the problem? Woman: My damn boyfriend swallowed my keys. Man: (With difficulty) I didn't want her to leave. Bailey: Locate the lady's keys. (Meredith is examining a girl about 18. Claire Rice is biting her nails. ) Mrs. Rice: I think she got some bug on her trip to Mexico with her friends. I told her not to go to a Third-World country, but does she ever listen? Mr. Rice: She's been weak ever since and she's lost weight. Claire: Barely. Mr. Rice: And this morning, she passed out in the shower. Meredith: When was the trip? Claire: A couple weeks ago. I'm really fine. I just have a fever. Meredith: Ok, well, will you lie back for an exam for me? Claire: No, please, I don't need an exam. Just give me some antibiotics and send me home. Meredith: Well, maybe it is just a fever, but they called down for a surgeon, so I have to give the ok to let you go. So just let me do the exam. Mr. Rice: Do the exam. Claire: No. This is crazy. I'm fine. Mrs. Rice: For God's sake, Claire, I don't want to spend my entire day here. Meredith: You know, actually, Mrs. Rice, this might be easier if we had some privacy. So would you two mind leaving the room? Mr. Rice: That's fine. (Hospital admitting) Digby: Digby. Digby Owens. I have an appointment. Alex: Excuse me, sir, uh, you're bleeding. You mind if I... Digby: Sure, sure. Have a look. Alex: That's a gn. Digby: Yeah. Alex: We got a gn wound. We got to get him down to the pit. (Cristina runs up with wheelchair) Alex: Sit, Mr... Digby: Uh, Digby. All right, but it isn't an emergency. I scheduled it. Alex: What, the gn? Digby: Yeah. My buddy sht me. Cristina: Buddy? Digby: Yeah, just as a favor. Cristina: On purpose? Digby: Hell, yeah. I mean he wasn't trying to hurt me or nothing, but you know... Alex: But why? Digby: I like the scars. (Alex is cleaning Digby's wound) Digby: Look, everyone in town has tats, but my art is about commitment. Alex: So, this is your art, huh? Digby: Damn straight. Cristina: Damn stupid. The bllet went all the way through. Digby: Bounced off my ribs. I have another one still in my shoulder. Nice, huh? Cristina: (Sarcastically) You could hang it in the Louvre. Digby: I have an ethos. Why do anything unless you're willing to go one step further than anybody else? Alex: What doesn't kll you makes you stronger. Digby: Exactly. And pain is the great divide. My coach used to say, it's all about how we process pain. Alex: Football? Digby: Wrestling, Iowa State. Alex: Iowa, 141. Digby: 157. Alex: You got to be more than 180 now. Digby: I'd like to see you get back under 145. Cristina: Excuse me, but thinking of you men in tights makes me want to...puke. Alex: There's a flu going around the hospital. Digby: Somewhat ironic. (Meredith examining Claire.) Claire: Ow. Don't push so hard. Meredith: Can you lift your shirt so I can examine your stomach? (She lifts her shirt to reveal pink scars) Meredith: Where did you get these? Claire...you've had surgery recently. These scars are still pink. Claire: Don't tell my parents. Meredith: You did this in Mexico so your parents wouldn't know? What did you have done? (George with a young child, her foot is twitching) George: Ahh. And you noticed her foot twitching? Come on, Jamie. Jamie: My foot. George: Oh, yeah. About three months ago? Mrs. Hayes: Just a little. We took her to County Hospital and she got the CT scan, which showed her... George: Brain abnormality. Here, you can put it...And the twitching has gotten worse? Mr. Hayes: A lot worse. They just don't have the proper equipment back home to figure out what's wrong. George: You did a... you did a good thing. Jamie: Show Mommy. George: Yes, your mommy. Jamie: Show Mommy and Daddy. George: Ok, you did a good thing by coming all this way, Mr. and Mrs. Hayes. You sit tight Jamie, ok? I'm gonna bring in Dr. Shepherd to see you, ok. Jamie: Shepherd. George: Ok? Dr. Shepherd. Ok? He's the brain specialist. Jamie: Mommy and Daddy. Mrs. Hayes: Doctor? Is he good, this Dr. Shepherd? George: At just about everything. (Bailey and Izzie looking at films of the man who swallowed his girlfriend's keys.) Bailey: I assume the lady needs her keys to leave this guy's sorry ass behind. Izzie: Yeah. Bailey: Well, help her out. (Start to walk through hall) Izzie: He needs a bronchoscopy. Bailey: See one, do one, teach one. You've seen one. It's time to do one. Izzie: Alone? Seriously? Thanks. I mean, the vote of confidence in my skills and all. I didn't think you well, anyone was noticing how hard I've been working... Bailey: Izzie? Go. Izzie: Yeah. (Bailey runs into Meredith) Meredith: You paged? Bailey: Where are we? Meredith: I did the consult, did the IV, the meds, the Postops, everything. Bailey: How is your pit patient? Meredith: She's febrile and has peritoneal signs. (Cristina walks by) Bailey: you all right, Dr. Yang? Cristina: Fine. On my way back to clinic. (Cristina walks away looking very sick) Meredith: I think she had some sort of illegal surgery done in Mexico. Bailey: Botched abortion? Meredith: No! She has four laparoscopic scars on her abdomen and won't say what they're from, the parents are clueless. Bailey: She's a minor. Meredith: Seventeen. Freshman in college. Bailey: You order up for a CT? Meredith: Yes. Bailey: So while she's there, the nurses couldn't get a Foley on Mr. Garay. He may need a Coude cath if you can't get a normal one in there. Write up postop notes on all surgical-floor patients that had surgery within the last 24 hours. Be sure to document their EKG's and x-rays. Hunt them down if you can't find them. Meredith: Right away. (Cristina is standing the hallway still sick and Burke walks up) Burke: Hey. Whoa. Got the flu? Cristina: Yeah, and thanks for it. It's making my life so much easier. Burke: I didn't give it to you. It's all over the hospital. You should be in bed. Cristina: Disease, diagnosis and prescription from one man. Burke: Seriously, I'll give you a ride home. Cristina: This is not gonna make me go home. You go home. Burke: But I feel fine. (Burke shrugs then feels his glands) (George is walking through hallway, runs up to Izzie) George: Hey, hey, hey. Have you seen Shepherd? Izzie: Not as up close as Meredith has. George: What? Are you trying to get her in trouble? She's our friend. Izzie: George, this program will make or break our careers. Some of us will make it through, and some of us won't. And that decision depends entirely on recommendations from doctors like Shepherd. There is a reason we don't sleep with the attendings. George: It's not her fault, ok. It's Shepherd's. He's the attending, he should know better. He's taking advantage of her. Izzie: It didn't exactly sound like anything was happening against her will last night. (Derek in surgery) Derek: Ok, I think we're in good shape here. Nurse: I think so, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Looks good. (George is watching from the scrub room, an x-ray tech enters) X-ray Tech: Here you go, doc. The kid's CTs just arrived from County. Thanks. (Dr. Taylor enters) Dr. Taylor: Excuse me. George: Sorry, Dr. Taylor. (He enters surgery) X-ray Tech: That would be bourbon. George: What? X-ray Tech: I smelled it too. And he's the best anesthesiologist on the staff. I'll worry when he's too juiced to do his crossword puzzle. (Dr. Taylor starts working on his crossword puzzle) Derek: Will you close up for me? Thank you everyone. (In the hall outside of the surgery) George: Dr. Shepherd... Derek: I got to get some coffee. George: Jamie Hayes has been admitted. The little girl with the brain abnormality. Derek: How's she presenting? George: She has what looks like continuous seizure activity in her left foot. Her balance is off. Her parents have come along way to find out what's wrong. (Derek looks at CT films) Derek: How old are there? George: Three months old. Derek: I need new ones. Her brain could look dramatically different today. George: Ok, I'll order them... Derek: Thank you. (Elevator door closes) George: ...doc. (Alex and Burke looking at Digby's x-rays.) Burke: And that? Alex: That's a bllet from a previous gn. Burke: Previous gn? Ok. Alex: No reason to take it out. Burke: No, the guy likes pain. Alex: It's his ethos. Burke: Pain as an ethos? Wait, I think I know this guy. (Bailey walks in, Burke shows her the x-rays) Burke: You remember this guy? Bailey: Hey, the tattooed masochist. Burke: Had himself sht again. Bailey: Glad to see he's still stupid. Alex: It's his ethos. Burke: Let's go tell him what he gets to do today. (Meredith has been sitting at a desk unnoticed) Meredith: Dr. Bailey? Claire Rice's abdominal CTs. Bailey: Is this girl fat? Meredith: Not at all. She's a normal college kid. Bailey: So, what do you see? Meredith: Her stomach's stapled. She's had a gastric bypass. Bailey: And a bad one, at that. (Bailey and Meredith in the hall talking to Mr. And Mrs. Rice.) Meredith: Gastric bypass is a procedure normally done on obese patients to help them lose weight. Mr. Rice: Claire? She doesn't need to lose weight. Mrs. Rice: Are you kidding? This means the world to her. (To Meredith and Bailey) But it is so typical of this girl to take the easy way out. She's done it with everything since she was a little kid. Bailey: Mrs. Rice, nothing about this is gonna be easy. She's gonna face a lifelong struggle with malnutrition unless she has surgery to reverse the procedure. Mrs. Rice: Do the surgery. (To Mr. Rice) I told her to watch the freshman 15. Don't eat junk, exercise. But when she came home Christmas, who had to take her out and buy her a brand new pair of size 6 jeans because she couldn't get in the ones I got her last summer? Mr. Rice: Tina, you know, she tries so hard. She does. She gets good grades. She gets A's. Mrs. Rice: She has illegal surgery in Mexico. Bailey: Unfortunately, there were complications with the bypass. Mr. Rice: What do you mean? Bailey: She has what looks like an abscess under her diaphragm, and edema, which is a swelling of the bowel wall. I can't say for certain she'll recover completely. Mr. Rice: Just do whatever you have to do to make her well, ok? (Derek is in Jamie's room) Derek: you look like a princess. Do you know you're a princess? Jamie: It's not lipstick. Derek: It's not lipstick? No, it's not lipstick. Want to do my shoulder? Oh, good. Jamie: And nose? Derek: We're gonna find out what's causing these seizures. Does MRI know we're coming down? George: You said CT. Derek: Now I'm saying MRI. George: It's available. Derek: Good. Mr. Hayes: Doctor, is she gonna need surgery? Derek: I don't know yet. Mr. Hayes: It's just that my wife and I, we both work and I don't know if our insurance... Mrs. Hayes: We know it can be very expensive. Derek: I don't want you to worry about that. (Jamie legs starts twitching quickly.) Derek: It's a focal, left-side seizure. Ok, let's get the diazepam running now, please. Nurse: Diazepam, IV. Derek: Tourniquet please. Jaime, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna put this on your arm, ok? Isn't that fun? Here, we're gonna put that right there, like that. And this is gonna feel cold. This is a butterfly. Butterfly fly lands right there. Good. Blanket for the butterfly. Good, nicely done. (Jamie's leg stops twitching) Derek: It's amazing stuff, isn't it? Mrs. Hayes: Um-hmm. Derek: Hey, you like spaceships? Jamie: Yeah. Derek: You do? Ok, should we take Captain O'Malley, my first lieutenant, to the spaceship MRI. Let's go. (Izzie prepares for the procedure on the man who swallowed the keys) Izzie: It'll be safer to wait until your lunch digests before we do the procedure. Woman: Perfect, this is just perfect. I was hoping to be in Portland right now. Izzie: You're gonna be under conscious sedation JP, which means you'll be awake, but groggy. JP: Wait, wait. Is this gonna hurt? Izzie: You'll have some discomfort but we'll give you something for the pain. Woman: Do you know how stupid you make me look. JP: I thought you would think this is funny. Woman: Funny? JP: Romantic? Woman: Like the therapist thing was funny and romantic? JP: That was funny. Woman: No, that was sad. He called my therapist pretending to be his therapist, to find out what I'd said about him. Izzie: That's a little passive-aggressive, JP? Woman: A little? He is the king of passive-aggressive. And he's manipulative...and needy... Izzie: Well, that's the trifecta. JP: What do I win? (Izzie shakes her head) What? (Digby is waiting on a gurney in the hallway when Burke and Alex walk up) Digby: Doc! Burke: I'd prefer we stop meeting like this, Mr. Owens. Digby: Digby. So how's the trumpet playing? Burke: Very safe, compared to your hobby. Getting sht is a little more risky. Alex: That's kind of the point. Burke: He's running a fever. Alex: Due to the extra stress on his body from the gn. Burke: Digby, the impact of the bllet on your chest fractured a rib and caused a hemopneumothorax. Digby: That sucks, I guess. Alex: Well, there's blood in your collapsed lung. Burke: The price of body art went up since your last gn. Digby: Ah, no pain, no gain, right? Burke: That's one way to look at it. Alex: We have that in common, you docs and me. Burke: Do we? Digby: Yeah, the way you guys push, push, and push. When I was wrestling, if you wanted to pin me, you was gonna have to kll me. Alex: Iowa style. Digby: Iowa State style. Back home, we were sworn enemies. But in Seattle, man, we're brothers. So, what are we gonna do about this, um...hemopneumo-Jurassics? Alex: We're gonna insert a chest tube to drain the blood, then re-inflate your lung. Burke: Oh, please...tell me I get to watch. (Burke leaves) Alex: Oh, man, Iowa style. (Claire's mom enters her room angrily) Claire: Before you guys start, I know you're mad. Mrs. Rice: Disbelief, Claire, just disbelief. Mr. Rice: I'm just concerned. Where did you get the idea to do this? Claire: The internet. Mrs. Rice: But, honey, there is a healthy way to lose weight. Claire: Yeah, I tried that, but...it doesn't work for me like it does for you. Mr. Rice: Hey, you don't need to lose weight. Mrs. Rice: What are you eating? And how much have you been working out? I mean, you know, most of the time, when people ht their target weight, they have to work to stay there. (Meredith is looking on) Claire: Everyone gains weight in college, Mom. It's...it's stressful. There's...there's not enough time for exercise. I just thought if I wasn't worried about my diet, then...I could focus more on my studies. Mrs. Rice: So you took yet another shortcut? Life doesn't work that way, Claire. Mr. Rice: Tina! Mrs. Rice: What? You want to argue this? (He shuts up) Mrs. Rice: (To Meredith) She has so much potential id she would just apply herself... Meredith: Ok. Ok, I think we should focus on taking care of your daughter. And, Claire, your parents agree, the best thing to do is to reverse the bypass. Claire: No! No, it's my body. I do not want surgery again. Please? Meredith: There were serious complications. And this is about your health. Claire: But I'd rather be thin. Mrs. Rice: Well, I'm afraid the choice isn't up to you. (Jamie is in CT scan and Derek and her parents are looking at the results) Derek: It's called Rasmussen's encephalitis. What it amounts to is that this side of her brain...(Points to screen) This part's all healthy, working perfectly. This black part of the brain, this...all of that is dad, or dying. The condition has gotten radically worse since her CT scans three months ago. Left untreated, the disease is gonna kll her. Mrs. Hayes: How soon? Derek: Too soon. Mr. Hayes: So is there a cure? Derek: The treatment requires the diseased portion of her brain be removed and sealed off. See, eventually, the spinal fluid will fill the cavity. Mr. Hayes: R-Remove? But, I mean, that's... Derek: Half her brain, yes. Mrs. Hayes: Half her brain. That...seems impossible. Derek: Her age makes it possible. Her brain's not fully developed, so the remaining neurons will compensate for the loss. (Mrs. Hayes runs out, George follows) Mr. Hayes: But will she be normal? (Derek and Mr. Hayes walk out. Jamie is on a gurney in the hall.) Derek: There are risks to any surgery. And this is, you know, a major one. But if we're successful, Jamie could walk out of this hospital in a couple weeks, go on to live a relatively normal life. Look, I know this is a lot to digest. The important thing to remember is that we can save her life. Mrs. Hayes: Thank you. (Mr. and Mrs. Hayes go with Jamie) Derek: Dr. O'Malley? George: Yes? What? (Sounds irritated) Derek: I'm sorry to bother you but if the parents consent I thought you'd like to scrub in on the hemispherectomy. Are you in, or not? George: Uh, in. Derek: Good. (Meredith is standing in hallway eating a cookie and looking nauseous.) George: Yang. I'm scrubbing in on a hemispherectomy with Shepherd. Cristina: Get out! I would kll for that. George: We're gonna cut out half a girl's brain and it's going to work. It's outrageous. Almost makes it hard to hate him. Cristina: Why do you hate him? George: Oh, no reason. Cristina: You know about him and Meredith? George: You know? Cristina: When are you gonna figure out that I know everything? (Izzie walks up stairs) George (To Izzie) She knows. Izzie: What, about doctor-cest? Cristina: It's been going on for, like ever. Izzie: Seriously? George: And you didn't tell us? Cristina: Ooh, you're a gossip, huh? George: I am not! Izzie: I am. (Arrive at hospital coffee shop) George: He's about to go into major brain surgery on no sleep? Not very responsible. Cristina: Jealous much? Sex all night isn't about being responsible. Izzie: No, it's about sex all night. I can't believe you're not more pissed off about this, you of all people. Cristina: Well, she works hard all day. She's good at her job. Why should you care how she unwinds? I mean, you like to bake all night. Some people like to drink. Others like an occasional screaming orgasm. (Alex walks up) Alex: Yeah, we do. Forget I said that. Pretend like I'm not here. Continue. (To Cristina) You look like you need to be spoon-fed. Cristina: You look like Alex. George: Yeah, about drinking, Dr. Taylor, the anesthesiologist... (Nods to where Dr. Taylor is standing nearby) Do you think he drinks? Cristina: I said, whatever gets you through the day. George: I mean here, at work. Earlier, I thought I smelled...Do you think...? I mean, his patients trust that...So I should say something, right? Alex: It's a can of worms, George. Weren't we talking about sex, anyway? George: Doofus. Izzie: Ew. (Burke in a trauma room, working on Digby) Digby: This is gonna leave a pretty sexy scar, huh? Burke: Don't get any more crazy ideas. (Alex takes a Polaroid picture.) Digby: You really think my ideas are crazy? Burke: I'm leaning that way. Alex: We wrestle, he plays trumpet. Digby: Hey, I feel pretty dizzy. Burke: You've lost some blood. Digby: This, too, shall pass. Hey... How come I don't see you down at the Mat in Belltown? Alex: Oh, man, no time. Digby: Bro, make time. I'll be expecting you. Alex: I'm there. (Bailey and Meredith operating on Claire) Bailey: Handle with care. This thing's... (Hands her bowel) Meredith: Full of gn. I know. Bailey: We need to free the bowel from the adhesions caused from the abscess. This poor girl. What was she thinking? Meredith: She wants her mother's approval. She wanted to please her. Bailey: And this damage is the result? Here, resect that. Meredith: Needle-tip Bovie, please. (Hands bowel back to Bailey) Bailey: When you're done here, you have postops waiting. Meredith: I know, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Cristina's got the flu. So, you need to pick up the slack in clinic. Meredith: Look, I'll mop the floors, ok? (Bailey glares at her) Sorry, that was inappropriate. Bailey: It's not the only thing that's inappropriate. While we're on the subject, you care to tell me what you think you're doing? Meredith: Look, I'll jump through hoops if you want me to. But what I do what I leave this hospital is my business. Bailey: Half this hospital knows your business. Flu isn't the only virus spreading around here. Meredith: I made a choice, and I know you don't respect me for that choice. But I'll live with the consequences. Bailey: Then I'll have lots of hoops for you to jump through. Meredith: I've done everything you've asked me to do. I may not do it your way but it gets done. So whatever else you got, bring it on. (Claire's bowel burst, spraying Meredith with toxic waste) (People in gallery are laughing and saying "Ew") Bailey: Ok, Dr. Grey, now that you've drained the organ, we can attempt to repair it. Meredith: Now my day is perfect. (Jamie getting ready to go into surgery, her parents saying good-bye. George and Derek scrubbing in) Mrs. Hayes: Ok, bye. (Scrub room) George: I appreciate this. The chance to scrub in on this kind of procedure is, well...Yeah, I appreciate it. Nurse: Here you go. Triple espresso, not too hot. Derek: Oh, I love you, seriously. Dr. Taylor: Ah, coffee, where would medicine be without it, huh? Derek: I hope you have a new crossword, Taylor. We're gonna be here a while. Dr. Taylor: (Pointing to crossword in his pocket) Never go without. Big day for you, kid. Congrats. George: Thanks. Derek: (To Jamie) Hey, princess. You ready to take a nap? Dr. Taylor: Hey, look what I got. Derek: Blow bubbles, that's it. Just breathe in. Oh, that's it. Derek: (To George) What? George: Do you smell...? Derek: Smell what? I have a mask. George: Uh...I'm sorry, Dr. Taylor, but did you just...? Have you been drinking? Dr. Taylor? I beg your pardon? Derek: What? George: Do you smell...I...I smell alcohol. Dr. Taylor: Where the hell do you get off accusing me of something like that? Derek: George, you're out of line. George: There are rules. You know, there are rules for a reason. You just...There is a 2-year-old girl on this table. You shouldn't take advantage of someone else's vulnerability. Dr. Taylor: Look, I don't need some punk intern telling me what's at stake here. Get him out of here, Shep. (George and Dr. Taylor look at Derek) Shep? Derek: You're out, George. (George leaves) Derek: (To Dr. Taylor) You damn well better be ready, Taylor. Dr. Taylor: I wouldn't be here if I wasn't. (Izzie retrieving keys from JP's throat) Woman: Do you really, seriously want to know why I'm leaving?! Seriously? How about when you started insisting that I quit my job, right when I started to make more money than you? That should have been the last straw. No, no. The last straw should have been when I found out that those mysterious phone calls that you've been getting that you kept denying were from other women were really coming from your mother. This isn't healthy. Izzie: Just, hold still, please. Woman: Don't you dare try to patch this up! Izzie: Could the both of you please stop? Woman: You don't love me, JP. You love to smother me. And if I could just get you to admit that, then I could leave you with an ounce of respect. Izzie: Athena, I let you stay in here to keep him calm. So, if you're just gonna keep... Athena: Check that. I can't respect a man desperate enough to swallow my exit strategy. That is the last straw! Izzie: Michelle, can you get her out of here? Michelle: Ma'am? Athena: Fine! Michelle: C'mon. (JP starts choking) Athena: What? What's happening? Izzie: The keys moved farther down. Athena: Oh, my God, what does that mean? (To JP) What did you do? Don't you dare die, JP! Izzie: Please! Please, just shut up! Athena: Breathe, JP. Just breathe. Izzie: Got it. (Lifts the keys out) Very impressive, JP. Athena: Is he ok? Is he gonna be ok? Izzie: Yeah, he'll be fine. (JP smiles and laughs at Athena) Athena: You lit...you did that on purpose, didn't you? Izzie: Can I offer you some advice? Get in your car and go, for all of our sakes. JP: You never gonna find where I parked it. (She grabs the keys and leaves.) (Meredith and Bailey are walking through the hall) Meredith: I need a shower. Bailey: I need a shower. You need to go tell that girl's parents what kind of kid they're getting back. Meredith: You're not gonna let me shower first? Bailey: That would be a hoop, would it not? Meredith: It would qualify. Bailey: Shower first, then. (Meredith enters locker room, Izzie and Cristina are inside.) Izzie: Ew, what smells? Meredith: That would be me, or more specifically, my patient's insides all over me. Izzie: That makes me strangely happy. Cristina: Oh, God. Oh, Meredith, you smell like... Izzie: Karma. Meredith: What? Izzie: Nothing. Cristina: Something vile is stuck in your hair. You know, just go stand over there, please. Meredith: Ugh, how much do I love being a surgeon right now? Izzie: Karma. Meredith: What does karma have to do with anything? Izzie: I'm just saying, you've been given all the best surgeries. And now you smell like putrid goo. And you're giving off a stench. Karma's a bitch. Bailey: (Entering locker room) Dr. Shepherd needs an intern in surgery. Which one of you is clear? Cristina: I'm good, Dr. Bailey, where do you want me? Bailey: You need to lie down somewhere. Cristina: I'm fine, I'm completely healthy. Bailey: Grey? Izzie: Of course. Meredith: What is your problem? Izzie: Um, you! 'Cause apparently you can help Dr. McDreamy in ways the rest of us can't. Meredith: You did not just say... Izzie: Yes, I did! Bailey: Hey! (To Cristina) Hemispherectomy in OR 1 with Dr. Shepherd. Go. (Cristina and then Izzie leave) Bailey: Apparently, I'm not the only one with hoops. (Burke at desk, Alex enters) Alex: Doctor. Digby's postop CBC shows a severe spike in the white blood cell count. Burke: What is it? Alex: It's 27, with 16 percent bands. Burke: Something else is wrong. That's a little high for simple stress. Check for any other possible sources of infection or recent illness. (Derek on Jamie's OR) Derek: All right, we're gonna start the procedure with the left temporal lobectomy. Thanks for joining us, Dr. Yang. After the temporal, we'll do the frontal, and then the occipital. (Cristina looks up to see George watching from the gallery. Dr. Taylor is working on his crossword puzzle.) (Meredith walking through the hall with Mr. and Mrs. Rice.) Meredith: We were able to reverse the gastric bypass, but we did lose a significant portion of her bowel. And because of the short gut syndrome, Claire will never eat normally again. Mr. Rice: Ok, wait, do...? How do we help her here? Meredith: Well, getting proper nutrition will be a lifelong problem for Claire. Mrs. Rice: Great, as if we already don't have our hands full with her. Meredith: She gets good grades. She stays out of trouble. She's smart. I just think she feels like nothing she does is good enough for you. Mrs. Rice: If you somehow think that I'm responsible for this... Meredith: I think Claire is klling herself to please you. Mrs. Rice: Oh, please. You have no idea what's going on in that girl's mind. Meredith: You're her mother. She worships the ground you walk on. She didn't do this for herself. Mrs. Rice: I think that this situation is completely... Mr. Rice: Tina...Shut up. (Meredith and Mrs. Rice look shocked as Mr. Rice walks away) (Alex enters Digby's room; he is curled up under a blanket and visibly sweating.) Alex: What is it? Digby: I'm freezing, doc. I-I cant stop shaking. Nurse (Olivia): His temp's way up, and BP's dropping, doctor. Alex: All right, Digby, have you had any recent illnesses, new piercings, tattoos, wounds? Digby: New tat on my calf. (Alex flips back blanket to reveal an extremely infected tattoo of a spider on his calf) Alex: Ew. Digby: Oh, my God. It was nowhere near that nasty this morning. Alex: But it was infected? Why didn't you say anything? Digby: Ah, it was nothing. I'm not here to complain about a little pain. Alex: The infection's been exacerbated by the stress on your body from the gn. (To Olivia) Get him to ICU. We'll get you started on some antibiotics. (Jamie's OR) Derek: From the frontal lobectomy, I'm going to encounter a, uh... (Jamie although sedated is blinking) Cristina: We'll encounter the anterior cerebral artery. Derek: Yes, so we're gonna need to, uh... (Jamie blinks again) Cristina: The branches of the artery need to be coagulated and divided. Derek: You know, Taylor, her anesthesia's awful light. (No response from Taylor, Jamie still blinking) Come on, Taylor, s-she's waking up. Cristina: Dr. Taylor? Uh, he's asleep! Derek: (Screaming) Taylor! Dr. Taylor! Dr. Taylor: Huh? Oh, God, sorry. Sorry, I'm on it. My bad, Shep. Derek: He was right, wasn't he? Dr. Taylor: Aw, I nodded off. Come on. Derek: Yeah, whatever you got to do to get through the day, right? Dr. Taylor: Steph, get me some coffee. Steph: Yes, doctor. Dr. Taylor: I'll be fine. It won't happen again. Derek: Yeah, not in here, it won't. Uh, Steph, call Dr. Pennington. Hopkins, take over until she gets here. Get out of here and get it together. (Burke running through hallway, Alex is working on Digby) Burke: What happened? Alex: He went into multi-system organ failure, secondary to overwhelming sepsis. Now he's all... Burke: Fix his BP, that should help his mental status. Alex: He's maxed out on pressors. We got V-tach. Burke: He's looking bad. Put the defib pads on him and give him 150 of amnioterone. Alex: I lost his pulse. Burke: Defib! Get the pads! Give me the paddles and charge to 200. Clear. (Shocks Digby) Again at 300. Clear. (Shocks again) (Alex and Burke continue shocking and performing CPR on Digby) (Jamie's OR) Derek: This packing, we hope, will prevent hemorrhaging. Dr. Yang, do you want to add something to that? Cristina: It will allow the cerebral spinal fluid to eventually fill the cavity. Derek: Hmm, very nice. Derek: You two, you wanna close up? Doctor: Yes, doctor. Derek: I'm gonna go to bed. Cristina: That was unreal. I mean, that's...that's all there is. I...I was feeling sick until I came here. Derek: I was tired. Now I'm tired again. It's back to reality. (Derek points to gallery and motions George to come outside) Derek: Let me explain. George: It's fine. Derek: No, there is a code among doctors. We're not supposed to ask each other questions, not within the walls of this hospital. George: Ok, I was out of line. Derek: No, you weren't. I was. I was out of line. Somebody should have taken responsibility. It should have been the guy doing the cutting. It should have been me. You didn't deserve what happened to you today. You did the right thing code or no code. (Derek extends his hand for George to shake, George hesitates then shakes his hand) Derek: You saw me leave the house this morning, didn't you? George: Oh, was that you? Derek: Hmm. I'm not using her. And I don't favor her. George: She's pretty great, you know. Derek: Mm-hmm. So, come on, lets go tell Jamie's parents she's gonna be fine, barring any complications. (Meredith is wheeling Claire through the hallway) Claire: Did you fix me? Meredith: No, not completely. Claire: So, I won't get fat? Meredith: No. Claire: Oh. That's awesome. Meredith: Claire, I've asked social services to contact your parents. Claire: Why? Meredith: They can help you. Claire: With what? Meredith: You don't know this yet, but life isn't supposed to be like this. It's not supposed to be this hard. (Digby is still flatlined) Burke: Time of death, 20:49. Alex: The first guy I ever met out here from back home. (Alex picks up and looks at the Polaroid then throws it on the gurney) (Seattle night scenes) (Izzie is frosting a cake when Meredith enters the house) Meredith: I thought you'd be asleep by now. (Meredith looks in fridge) Izzie: Yeah, well, I'm not. If you wait a few minutes, you can have a piece of cake. Baked it chock-full of love. Actually, chock-full of unrelenting, all consuming rage and hostility, but it's still tasty. Meredith: So you know? Izzie: I know. Meredith: Well, do you want the long, sordid version, or do you want the short version, where I started sleeping with a guy who turned out to be my boss? Izzie: Neither. Meredith: Izzie, cut me some slack here. Izzie: No. You want to Dartmouth. Your mother is Ellis Grey. You grew up... Look at his house! You know, you walk into the OR, and there isn't anyone who doubts that you should be there. I grew up in a trailer park. I went to state school. I put myself through med school by posing in my underwear. You know, I walk into the OR, and everyone hopes I'm the nurse. Y-you have their respect without even trying, and you're throwing it away for...what? A few good surgeries? Meredith: No. It's not about the surgeries. It's not about getting ahead. Izzie: Then what? A little hot sex? You're willing to ruin your credibility over that? I mean, Meredith, what the hell are you doing? (Izzie stares at Meredith who rolls her eyes) Oh, my God. You're falling for him. Meredith: I am not. Izzie: Oh, you so are. Meredith: No, I'm not. Izzie: You so are. Damn it, you poor girl. Meredith: You know, it's just that he's just so...And I'm just...I'm having a hard time. Izzie: Wow, you're all, uh, mushy and...warm and full of secret feelings. (Hands her cake) Meredith: I hate you! And your cake. Izzie: My cake is good. So, um, how hot is the sex? Meredith: Izzie. Izzie: What? Come on, I'm not getting any. Help a girl out with a few details. (Alex in locker room working out on rowing machine) MVO: Maybe we like the pain. (Jamie's room) Jamie: Pooh. George: How's she doing? Derek: Good. George: Good. MVO: Maybe we're wired that way. (Burke enters on call room, it is dark) Burke: Cristina? (He flips on the light to find the room empty.) MVO: Because without it, I don't know... (Cristina is in the bathroom looking at a pregnancy test) MVO: ...maybe we just wouldn't feel real. (It is positive) (Meredith and Derek at her house, getting in bed) Derek: You know, we could just... Meredith: Sleep? Derek: We could, yeah, if...if you want to. Meredith: Yeah? (They both crawl into bed) MVO: What's that saying? "Why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer?" Meredith: Oh, thank god. MVO: "Because it feels so good when I stop."	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x07 - The Self Destruct Button"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x08: Save Me Original Airdate: 5/15/2005 Written by: Mimi Schmir Directed by: Sarah Pia Anderson (Seattle Scenes) MVO: You know how when you were a kid and you believed in fairy tales? (Derek is at Meredith's, applying deodorant; she is just looking at him) MVO: That fantasy of what your life would be. White dress, Prince Charming, Who'd carry you away to a castle on a hill. You'd lie in bed at night and close your eyes, and you had complete and utter faith. (Izzie is in the kitchen, a sink full of dirty dishes, and cupcakes everywhere. George is there eating cupcakes.) Izzie: Eight hours, 16 ounces of chocolate, and 32 cupcakes, and they still don't taste right. George: (With mouthful) No, these are good. Martha Stewart would be proud. Izzie: Yeah, look where it got her. MVO: Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, Prince Charming, they were so close, you could taste them. Izzie: There's something missing, some specific ingredient. Why can't I remember? MVO: But eventually, you grow up. One day you open your eyes, and the fairy tale disappears. George: Look, just call her. Call your mother and ask. MVO: Most people turn to the things and people they can trust. Izzie: I don't want to call my mother. (Meredith and Derek still getting ready. Derek is brushing his teeth. ) Meredith: So let's go sleep at your house tonight. Derek: What? Meredith: I mean, why are we always sleeping at my house? Do you even have one? Derek: One what? Meredith: A house. With a closet. With your stuff in it. Your personal stuff. Do you even have one of those? Derek: Mmm. (Derek and Meredith enter the kitchen) Derek: Good morning. George: Hey. You guys want a cupcake? Derek: Oh, no. George: Izzie made them. Derek: You know, I like it here. You said so yourself, you liked having your things around, sleeping in your own bed. (Derek is getting cereal and a bowl out) George: You're like a health nut, aren't ya? You eat muesli every morning. Derek: No, I don't. Izzie: Ok, the muesli thing, you do. The last seven days, at least. Derek: Oh, come on. I haven't been here for a whole week. Have I? Meredith: See? Even they thing it's weird. MVO: But the thing is, it's hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely. Cause almost everyone still has that smallest bit of hope, of faith, that one day they'll open their eyes and it will all come true. (Derek and Meredith smile at each other) (Seattle Scenes) (Cristina in an office) Woman: So I've checked the schedule. Cristina: I start ENT on the 9th. It's a light rotation. Can you get me in then? Woman: Oh, I'm afraid not. We have openings on the 16th. There are other options besides termination, you know? Adoption, keeping the baby. You think it over. Call me back. I'm here... Cristina: Put me down for the 16th. I'll confirm after I rearrange my schedule. Woman: I know this is a difficult decision. Cristina: You know the talking part? Woman: Mm. Cristina: I'm not interested. (Alex examining a female patient) Alex: So, Devo, you just had a root canal, correct? Devo: Yeah. I couldn't stop bleeding after, literally. Now I'm stuck with you guys. (Burke enters) Burke: Give me the bllet. Alex: 17-year-old female hospitalized for excessive bleeding, status post root canal. Also had a significant new heart murmur associated with fever. Now afebrile on antibiotics. Devo: If I'm gonna die, can you page my mom and dad? Burke: You're not dying. Where are your parents? Devo: In the cafeteria. My freak father likes hospital food. Burke: You're in excellent hands here. Dr. Karev is gonna run some labs. And I'll see you with your parents in a little while. Add a bleeding time to the coags. (Burke leaves) Alex: So, what kind of name is Devo, anyway? Devo: 80's rocker. My parents did too much blow. I call myself Esther. Alex: Nice skirt. What are you, Amish? Devo: Get a life. Haven't you ever seen an Orthodox Jew? (Meredith and Cristina examining x-rays) Cristina: This guy belongs in Psych. What are you doing turfing him here? Psych Doctor: He's my gift to you. Had a seizure two days ago and another one this morning. Meredith: What are you talking about? It says right here, "He talks to dad people, his family things he's dangerous. They had him committed." That's Psych, not Neuro. Cristina: Man, didn't you go to med school? Psych Doctor: Yes, and unlike the correspondence school you attended... Cristina: Oh, that would be Stanford, right? Psych Doctor: I learned not to jump to conclusions. Sorry, ladies. We can't take him back until he's cleared. Cristina: So, you're dumping him on us? Psych Doctor: He thinks his seizures are visions. Patient: Hello! They're not seizures. I'm psychic. Cristina: Of course you are, and I'm a chicken. (To Psych Doctor) Hey, genius. Meredith: Ok, Mr. Duff. We're gonna start our workup now. Mr. Duff: Work me up, work me down, I'm telling you it's a waste of time. Cristina: Ok, well, humor us. Can you grip my fingers, please? (He appears to go into a trance.) Meredith: Cristina. Cristina: Mr. Duff? Meredith: Mr. Duff, are you ok? Mr. Duff: Someone... Meredith: Someone what? Mr. Duff: Someone's gonna check out. Bye-bye. Cristina: Oh, man, he's nuts. Mr. Duff: I'm dizzy, not deaf, lady. And I'm telling you, someone on the fourth floor is gonna die. Man on PA System: Code blue, fourth floor. Code blue, fourth floor. (Code team goes running by in the hallway) (Meredith and Cristina leave looking bewildered.) (Seattle Scenes) (Outside of SGH) (Cristina walking through the hallway, still looking ill.) George: Fourth floor, dad guy. The psychic predicted the fourth floor dad guy. Cristina: I need someone to cover me on the 16th. You in? (Meredith and Derek walk by) George: I'm thinking about letting my hair grow. And maybe I won't shave. Go for the stubble effect. What do you think? Cristina: The 16th, George. Can you cover me or not? George: Uh, yeah. I guess. Why? Cristina: It's none of your business. George: Thank you would be nice. (Cut to Meredith and Derek still walking through the halls) Meredith: It's just that I hardly know anything about you. Derek: You know I'm from New York. You know I like ferry boats. Meredith: Enough with the ferry boats. What about your friends? Derek: I'm a surgeon. I don't have friends. Meredith: Everybody has friends. I mean, who do you hang out with? What do you do on your days off? These are important questions. Derek: Ah, important for who? Meredith: We're having sex every night. I think I deserve details. Derek: You have more details than most. Meredith: See, this is going somewhere weird. I want facts, and until I get them, my pants are staying on. Derek: Or you could just roll with it. Be flexible. See what happens. Meredith: I'm not flexible. Derek: (Laughing) There I disagree. Hmm. I've got to go. We'll find these things out. That's the fun part. You know? That's the gravy. Meredith: That is what I'm talking about. I don't want to be your gravy. (Burke and Alex in the waiting area talking with Devo's parents.) Burke: Your daughter needs a valve replacement. Tests are indicative of Von Willebrand's disease, which explains excessive bleeding after the root canal. Man: And that means? Alex: Devo can't take the blood thinners necessary to maintain a mechanical heart valve. Burke: We're suggesting a porcine valve instead. Man: Porcine? As in pig? Burke: It's the standard of care for someone in this situation. Man: Pig, huh? Alex: It's the other white meat. Woman: I don't care what you have to do. Save my daughter's life. (Bailey performing surgery on a woman in the OR) Bailey: I'm removing the lump now. Woman: Someone said you guys have a psychic running around here. Is that true? Bailey: I did not even hear you say that. Woman: Predicted someone would die on the fourth floor. Izzie: ICU's on the fourth floor. People die all the time. Bailey: Ok. We're finishing up here, Mrs. Glass. We'll take this down to Path and get the results of the frozen-section biopsy and see you in a few hours. Izzie: Seriously, the guy is just playing mind games. I can see further into the future than he can. Bailey: Why do you even care about this, Stevens? Izzie: I don't. (Derek examining patient in the ER) Derek: Ok, Mr. Walker. Does that hurt? Mr. Walker: I can't feel anything until you get to my thigh. Derek: Try wiggling your toes. (Toes do not move) Mr. Walker: Are they moving? Derek: No. Mr. Walker: Damn. I could about ten minutes ago. Derek: Well, your spine x-rays look clear. You fell rock climbing? Mr. Walker: In Snohomish. Just a small drop. I was belayed. My wife and boys are on the way. What's wrong with me, anyway? Derek: Hold your legs up (Lifts the mans legs, lets go and they drop) Mr. Walker: Should I be scared now? Derek: Just try and relax. Nurse, I need a stat MRI. Send an intern with him. Make it Meredith Grey. Nurse: Mm-hmm. (George and Alex in an exam room with a patient, Burke is walking by) Alex: Ew. Thick, short neck. That isn't good. It's hard to intubate. You want me to do that? George: He's my patient. I'm fine. I just can't see anything yet. Suction. Alex: Don't break any teeth. George: I know that...don't you think I know that? Alex: Pulse ox down 87 percent. George: Bag him. Alex: Are you sure you don't want me to do that? George: No, damn it! Tube. (Puts tube in forcefully) There. Huh. Got it. (Alex listens to the lungs) Alex: It's in the esophagus. Don't you know an esophagus from a trachea? George: Damn it. Anatomy is all messed up in here. (Burke enters) Burke: Are you trying to kll this patient, O'Malley? Maybe we should send you back to practice on mannequins. George: No, it's just I haven't done his much. But when I have, it's...it's been good. It's just I-I haven't... Burke: Let's review the concepts. Never take your eyes away. Always, always know you can follow through. Alex: Don't ever follow through on one of my patients, O'Malley. (Alex and Burke leave, George looks frustrated.) (Cristina is in the Mr. Duff's room) Mr. Duff: A little Botox would do wonders on those frown lines. Cristina: Ok. Shut up. Mr. Duff: Are you allowed to talk to me like that? (Cristina hisses at him) God, you're hot...in a Mrs. Livingston kind of way. Cristina: See here? (Shows him papers) These are spikes in your temporal lobe. It means you have epilepsy. Not visions. Seizures. Mr. Duff: You think I'm epileptic? That is no not right. Cristina: I'm gonna order an MRI so I can take a closer look at your brain. Mr. Duff: Yeah, there's no way... (Starts having a "vision") Cristina: Mr. Duff? Mr. Duff, can you see me? Can you hear me? Stay with me. Mr. Duff: I wouldn't have picked you for the mommy track, Nurse Betty. (Cristina stares at him) Mr. Duff: See? I told you I know things. This pregnancy thing, you can't run away from it. (Cristina leaves quickly and takes the elevator to the lounge where Bailey and Izzie are.) Cristina: Dr. Bailey, I want off the psychic case. I'll take whatever you got. Can I switch? Bailey: Ask nicely. Cristina: Uh, well, this is me doing nicely. (Bailey stops what she is doing and glares at Cristina) Izzie: Look, I know the type. These guys just want everybody to think they're a slideshow. Let me take him. Bailey: I don't do switches. Cristina: I'll do your post-op notes for a month. Bailey: Fine. I can accept that. Izzie, you get Psych guy. Yang. This is your lucky day. You get to be with me on the breast cancer. And there's spotting. So you'll need to do a pelvic. She's pregnant. (Meredith and Derek looking at Mr. Walker's scans) Meredith: See, this. The guy's films are clear. There's no reason I can see for his creeping paralysis. Derek: It's just so surprising. I expected an intrusion into the spinal space or bony spur in the nucleus pulposus. Meredith: Well, you were wrong. You don't always get what you expect, do you? Derek: What is your problem? Meredith: Give me something to go on. Anything. What are your grandparents' names? Derek: I don't have grandparents. Meredith: Whered you grow up? What's your favorite flavor of ice cream? Where'd you spend your summer vacations? Derek: Lighten up. It'll be good for your blood pressure. (Leaves the room) Meredith: Oh, don't you tell me to lighten up. I'll lighten up when I...feel light. (Cristina and Bailey in the breast cancer patient's room, talking with her and her husband) Husband: Don't we have treatment options? I-I mean, aren't there always alternatives? Cristina: With this stage of invasive carcinoma, surgery, chemo, radiation and drug therapy are your only options. Woman: Can I wait until the end of my pregnancy? Cristina: The pregnancy hormones will likely speed the growth of the cancer. Husband: And the baby? Cristina: Oh, none of these courses of treatment will allow the baby to survive. Bailey: Mr. and Mrs. Glass, I understand how difficult this is. Mrs. Glass: No disrespect, but like hell, you do. Bailey: You're going to have to make a decision as to how you want to proceed. Mrs. Glass: You mean my baby's life or my own? Bailey: Yes. (They are shaken) We'll have to evacuate the fetus. (Derek is speaking with Mr. Walker, Meredith enters) Derek: Any changes, Mr. Walker? Mr. Walker: I can't move my legs at all now. Mrs. Walker: He said he was moving his legs when he came in. What's wrong with him? Derek: I don't know. The paralysis is moving very quickly and there was nothing in the MRI to explain it. Meredith: Has Tommy been under any stress lately? Mr. Walker: You know what's making me stressed? Is being in here and not being able to move. Derek: Dr. Grey. Meredith: Emotional trauma can be converted into something physical, right? Derek: Yes, it's possible. Meredith: Like hysterical numbness or paralysis. Maybe there is no physiological reason, and he's just having a conversion reaction. Derek: You think it's psychosomatic? (Curtain behind them flies open) Mr. Duff: It is not in your head, man. I believe you. Izzie: Mr. Duff, please. Derek: Who was that? Meredith: Psych sent him down. He has visions. Mr. Walker: Is that it? Am I crazy? Derek: No. No. I'm gonna order a higher-level MRI. We're gonna figure this out. (Devo's room) Devo: You know how important this is to me! Mother: This is about saving your life, sweetie. Devo: And you're not respecting it, or me. You're letting them put a pig, a freaking non-kosher, traif mammal, into my chest, into my heart! The very essence of my being! Alex: It's a porcine valve, actually. Devo: I don't care what the hell it is. If you give me a pig part, I might as well be dad. Father: I told you this whole Orthodox thing was a mistake. What was so wrong with being plain old Reform like everyone else we know? Devo: You guys don't even light candles Friday nights. You don't even know all the Passover plagues. Alex: Boils, vermin, pestilence. Even I know that. Burke: Miss Friedman, I appreciate your extreme religious convictions. Alex: fre, hail... Burke: But, simply put, without this procedure, you will die. Devo: You're hotshot doctors. You'll come up with something else. As long as it doesn't answer to Wilbur and say "oink," I don't care what it is. (Izzie loading Mr. Duff into the MRI machine) Mr. Duff: Your nostrils are flaring. Izzie: They are not. Mr. Duff: You're into me. I can tell. "Dr. Small and Angry" was a hot appetizer but you, doc, are a smorgasbord of lust. Izzie: Mr. Duff, you're pressing your luck. Mr. Duff: Would you press it for me? Izzie: I hope you're not claustrophobic. You're staring at me. Stop it. Mr. Duff: I'm looking at you, sweetheart, but it's the strangest thing. I'm hungry for a chocolate cupcake. Izzie: What did you say? Mr. Duff: A chocolate cupcake. Maybe one of those fudgey things with the white squiggle on the frosting. Could you oblige? Izzie: What, do I still have some chocolate on my face or in my hair or something? Mr. Duff: What are you talking about? Izzie: You. I know the drill, so keep it up. Next you'll be reading my cards, telling me my dad uncle is in the room. Mr. Duff: Is he? Izzie: I don't have a dad uncle. I'm watching you. (Cristina is at a desk, smell her sandwich and drops it, Meredith and Izzie are there, George and Alex enter) George: If that's turkey, can I have some? Cristina: It's soggy. Alex: If it'll kll you. Solve everything. George: I coulda gotten that intubation. I am good at intubations. Meredith: (Taking a bite of the sandwich) Why does everything in a hospital smell like a hospital? Izzie: Don't be so hard on yourself, George. Everybody makes mistakes. George: You know, I'm good at a lot of things. Cristina: You know what, I'm gonna tell you something. Hey, George. You need to get laid. See that nurse over there? (Points to a red headed nurse) She's single. She's got red hair. Go ask her out. George: In care you forgot, I intubated an esophagus. Alex: Dude, you're tweaking. Maybe you should go see that psychic. (Alex leaves) Izzie: Mr. Duff is not a psychic! Cristina: I am trying to help you. Go buy her a latte and freshen up your gonads, please. (Cristina leaves) Izzie: Shut up. George: It's not too late to call her. You know, moms like that, surprises on their birthdays. You know, it's very Hallmark. (George leaves, Izzie sits there shaking her head) (Cristina in Mr. and Mrs. Glass' room) Mrs. Glass: I'm 47, you know? I'm 47 and having a baby which is kind of a miracle and it kind of sucks, if you see what I mean. We'd actually given up on the whole kid thing about a year ago. You know, fertility treatments, acupuncture needles in my eyes. Well, not really, but it felt like it. I was like, "Screw this. I want my life back." Then one awesome night on the beach with a bottle of merlot... Cristina: I should have these labs back in a couple hours. Mrs. Glass: You get it, right? My hesitation? This isn't an easy decision, I mean. I'm having a baby. Cristina: You have advanced-stage carcinoma. You're 47 years old, so statistically you have a good probability of survival. Forego treatment, chances are you won't see your baby go to kindergarten, so whose like are you interested in saving? Excuse me. (Mr. Walker in the ER) Mr. Walker: First my legs, then my stomach. God. Doc! Doc, my hands can't move. Derek: Squeeze my fingers. Mr. Walker: I can't. Derek: Right here. No? Let me know if you feel this. (Pokes him with needle) How about that? Here? Anything here? Up here? Ok. Nothing on this side? All right. I'll be right back. Nurse, cancel the second MRI. Call down and prep OR stat. Meredith: You're operating? On what? If there was something to fix, wouldn't we have seen it? Derek: I think the MRI missed a clot somewhere in his upper spine. I'm gonna cut him open. I'm going in. Meredith: What if you're wrong? Couldn't unnecessary spinal surgery do more damage? Derek: If we wait any longer and this expands into his brain stem, we have a paralyzed man who can't breathe. I'm trusting my instincts. Sometimes you've got to take a chance to save a life. (Seattle scenes) (Alex in Devo's room) Alex: Your mitral regurge is getting worse. The valves are leakier than ever. Devo: Are you hitting on me? Alex: If you want me to. Devo: I hear they call you Dr. Evilspawn. Alex: Well, only the people that like me. Devo: I guess that explains the lack of faith thing. Alex: You know, I kind of think of myself as a pagan, but, hey, that's just me. Devo: You know what it's like being a teenager these days? My friends spend most of their time screwing around and getting wasted. At least I have God. Alex: Well, so God wants you to die, huh? Devo: He wants me to be passionate about what I believe in. You don't believe in anything. Alex: Well, my mother used to pray to Saint Jude for me. Devo: How appropriate. Patron saint of lost causes. Alex: Mmm. (Izzie walks up to Bailey in the hall) Izzie: I did an angio on my Psych case. The MRI came out clean, but I saw a ditzel. There's something here. Bailey: Yep, you're right. There's an AVM on his left temporal lobe. Izzie: I'll schedule the OR for tonight then. Bailey: Ohh, back up, girl. Izzie: There's high risk of spontaneous hemorrhage. Bailey: The attending has to see films. We need consent forms. Believe it or not, Stevens, we have to follow protocol. Take a breath. Izzie: But if the AVM looks like it's gonna blow, we fix it, right? Bailey: If the man needs to be fixed, we'll fix him in due time. Why are you moving so quickly? You get too involved with your patients, Izzie. Why do you make everything so personal? Izzie: It's not personal. (Bailey glares at her) It's not. (Mr. Walker in surgery) Derek: We've got to save this cord. This guy's built like the Rock of Gibraltar. Meredith: You want me to start? Derek: No, I'm gonna to cut here from the base of the neck to the rib cage. I want you to ht the bleeders. Meredith: I still don't think we should be doing this. Derek: This guy has a spinal hematoma. Meredith: We don't know that. Derek: Which left untreated are almost always fatal. Meredith: You're cutting blind. Whatever happened to being practical? Derek: I need to see more here. Retractor. Meredith: Wow. The spine. Derek: There's no "wow" in "practical." (Bailey and Cristina enter Mr. and Mrs. Glass' room) Mr. Glass: We've decided to go ahead with the evacuation. Mrs. Glass: What the hell, right? Maybe this is how it's supposed to be. Bailey: We need to start chemo right away then. Cristina: We'll get everything ready. (Bailey and Cristina leave the room) Bailey: Have you even done a D and C before. Cristina: We learned at school. Bailey: Ok, uh, go ahead. I'll call an OB resident down to supervise. If she needs anything, page me. (Alex and George in the research room, George slams a book shut and leans toward Alex) Alex: You're using up my oxygen, O'Malley. George: How does a pompous, cocky jackass like you always have women all over him? Alex: Little blue love pills, lots of them. George: Come on. Alex: Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. There it is, a bovine xenograft. (Jumps up shouting) O'Malley, you think too much. Can't you see it? You got to dance and jab. Dance and job. Like me. I am the Ali of this place. (Alex enters Devo's room, she is praying in Hebrew) Alex: Does the wall ever bow back? Devo: It's called davening, smartass. This is me communing with God, and you're interrupting. Alex: I've found a transplant option. At first, I thought maybe a cadaver, but they're really hard to find. And then I realized Dr. Burke can transplant a bovine mitral valve instead of the pig (Burke enters just as Alex says this) Father: She can get a cow valve? Mother: Dr. Burke, why wasn't this mentioned before? Burke: Dr. Karev. Alex: The bovine valve has only been an option the last few years. Burke: And it's a much more complicated procedure. Alex: But the best part is it's actually superior to the pig. It lasts longer. (Cut to Burke and Alex in the hallway) Burke: What incredibly small fraction of your brain were you using in there? Alex: What? Burke: Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you not present an alternative procedure without consulting your attending first? Alex: I thought you'd be... Burke: What, impressed? That's just stupid. Alex: I'm sorry... Burke: We're finished here, Karev. You're off this case. (Izzie enters Mr. Duff's room) Izzie: You need to sign these consent forms so we can proceed with your surgery. Mr. Duff: Sweetheart, I'm not signing anything unless it's got my name on it followed by a whole bunch of zeros. Izzie: Look, the AVM is located in this crucial part of the brain. It's a tangle of blood vessels that could burst and affect your speech, among other things. So, we know your visions are actually seizures. Mr. Duff: Do you? Izzie: Do I what? Mr. Duff: Know they're seizures. Izzie: You're really good at reading people, aren't you? Telling them what they want to hear? Mr. Duff: There's a really unfortunate alignment of Saturn in the house of Jupiter right now. Izzie: Ok, I know what you're doing. You watch people, read their body language. You say "chocolate cupcakes," I lean towards you, so you think you're on the right track. Not only do you know you're having seizures, but you're milking it. Mr. Duff: Hmm. Well, we'll just see about that, cricket. Izzie: What? What did you just call me? (Cristina enters Mr. and Mrs. Glass' room) Cristina: I'm gonna do a quick pelvic exam. The OB resident should be down soon. It's a short procedure. Your husband can stay if he likes. Mrs. Glass: We changed our minds. Cristina: Excuse me? Mr. Glass: We've decided to keep the baby. Cristina: You have cancer. Mrs. Glass: Can't you tell me I'll survive if I go through with this? Cristina: Having the procedure does not necessarily improve the treatment outcome. Mrs. Glass: You have quite the bedside manner. You know that, right? My mom died of breast cancer when she was in her 40's. I have that cancer gene. My chances are pretty much lose-lose, whichever way you look at it, except for the baby. We're keeping it. Cristina: I'll call down a Psych consult. Mrs. Glass: Don't bother. I am going to get fat and happy instead of skinny and bald. I am the end of it all... Cristina: Look, if you want to live... Mrs. Glass: Honey, that's what I'm doing. (Cristina is sitting on bed in the on call room when Burke enters) Cristina: Look, if you think you're gonna get any, think again. I'm not in the mood. Burke: I'm not in the mood, either. Cristina: Good. (Pause) What do you want? Burke: Nothing. I just haven't seen you all day. Cristina: So I'm working. Burke: I've never done a bovine replacement before. I don't know what I'm doing. Cristina: Look it up, research it and get someone to assist you. Burke: It's not that easy. Cristina: This is a problem that has a solution, Burke. There are a lot of problems that don't. (Mr. Walker's OR) Meredith: Third thoracic laminae. Nothing. I think I see the dura pulsating here. Derek: No, it's not. Keep looking. Meredith: We have been at this for four hours. Maybe he just injured his spinal cord and there's nothing to fix. Derek: Grey, when you read your books, make sure you reference them correctly. Progressive paralysis implies a pressure lesion. Meredith: My books got me here... Doctor: Pressure's up to 180/111. The pulse is in the 40s. Meredith: What is it? Doctor: I'm pushing 70 milligrams Diazoxide. Derek: Ok. Autonomic dysreflexia. Meredith: Damage to the sympathetic nervous system? Derek: BP and the heart rate are unstable. Meredith: We're in trouble, aren't we? Derek: We've got to find the clot. Meredith: I can see the cord below the dura. Is he gonna stroke out? Derek: Focus, Grey. We're gonna find the clot. It's there. Cleanup, please. Doctor: BP's still up. Heart rate's at 44. Derek: Get on those bleeders. Keep looking, Dr. Grey. (George walking through the hall when he is stopped by Olivia) Olivia: Dr. O'Malley? Our patient's pulse ox is dropping. She's agonal. She needs to be intubated. George: Isn't there anyone else who can do this? Olivia: You're standing right here. I could try and find someone. George: No, that's...I got it. Olivia: Sats down to 86 percent. George: Cric pressure, please. (Burke walks by in the hall) George: Ok. I see cords. Tube. Hurry. Check for breath sounds. Olivia: Clear and equal. CO2 detector mellow yellow. Smooth moves, doctor. George: Kicked ass. (Olivia and George smile and laugh, obviously sharing a moment.) (Burke in the stairwell, runs into Alex) Burke: Oh, Dr. Karev. How long would it take to get a cow valve? Alex: Oh, about 60 minutes by messenger. Burke: You're scrubbing in. Alex: Thank you very much, sir. Burke: This doesn't get you any points, Karev. I'm the only one with points around here, ok? Oh, by the way. Devo wants a rabbi to bless her before surgery. Alex: Seriously? Burke: You came up with the cow, you can find that girl a rabbi. (Mr. Walker's OR) Meredith: What is it? Derek: See for yourself. The second thoracic vertebrae. Meredith: Oh, my God. I see it. It really is there. Derek: Of course it is. Let's suction and pack this baby, shall we? (Scrub room outside Mr. Walker's OR) Meredith: You were right. Is he gonna be ok? Derek: I think so. Meredith: But you don't know that. Derek: I know we stopped the paralysis from advancing. Meredith: But, you don't know if the paralysis he already has will be permanent. Derek: No. Meredith: You know, you keep taking everything on faith. How do you know what's real and what's not? Derek: You just do. You know some people would call this a relationship. The kind where you exchange keys, leave your toothbrush over. Meredith: Who? Who would call it that? Derek: Me. I would. Meredith: And I'm supposed to believe you? Derek: Uh-huh. Meredith: Show me something. Give me a reason to believe. (He walks away) (Cristina enters Mr. Glass' room) Cristina: I have your discharge papers. Mrs. Glass: Oh, you're not happy with me, are you? Cristina: I'm your doctor. It's not my place to be happy. Mrs. Glass: My husband and child are going to be together long after I'm gone. We've talked about it. It's our decision, and that's ok. Cristina: So why do you need my approval? Mrs. Glass: I just want you to understand. Cristina: Well, I don't. (Izzie enters Mr. Duff's room) Izzie: I brought the consent forms again. You really need to sign them. Your surgeon scheduled the OR. Mr. Duff, are you all right? Are you having another seizure? Mr. Duff: Yeah, yeah. I think maybe I am. Izzie: What is it? Mr. Duff: It's me. I think it's about to be over. Izzie: We know what we're doing, Mr. Duff. You saw the angio results. We're catching the AVM just in time. You don't need to be nervous. You're not gonna die. Mr. Duff: I'm not talking about dying. My whole life has been about what I see and about believing in myself, whatever people think. And you're telling me there's a very good chance that will go away. Izzie: Look, you're a healthy guy. You're gonna live a long, full life. And if you're psychic visions are real, you've got to believe you'll have them when you come out. (She hands him the paper, which he signs) (Devo's OR, she is being blessed by the Rabbi) (Burke is standing next to a TV monitor) Burke: This is Dr. Chesney from the Cleveland Clinic. He's an expert on bovine valve replacement surgery. He will be assisting via satellite. Dr. Chesney: Thank you, doctor. After the sternotomy and connection to bypass, we're going to do a transverse left atriotomy to expose the valve. (Interns are in the deserted hallway) Meredith: I tried to talk Shepherd out of that clot surgery. What is wrong with me? Alex: Basically, you tried to kll the guy. Cristina: Basically, you're an ass. Alex: Come on. You know you want it. Come to papi, baby. (George enters) George: This, uh, is George. (Points at his name tag) George has a hot date. Meredith: Oh, that's great, George. George: Yeah. Alex: Left pocket of my lab coat, Georgie. (Gets up to leave) No glove, no love. (George grabs Alex's arm as he is leaving and takes a condom from his pocket) Izzie: My psychic had his surgery. George: Yeah? Izzie: I wonder what happened with his...gift. Cristina: Come on. We all know he's crazy. Meredith: Thought you said you didn't believe in that stuff. Izzie: I grew up in a trailer park. I waited tables, which was supposed to put me through college, but my mother was always calling these psychics all the time. And the bills started piling up, so I had to use my money to pay them. When I turned 18, I left and never went back. But this guy has been saying things to me, things he couldn't possibly know anything about. So I just wonder. (Meredith is examining Mr. Walker) Meredith: Do you have sensation anywhere else? Mr. Walker: Some feeling in my stomach and feet, I guess. Meredith: Bladder and bowels? Mr. Walker: Not so good still. Mrs. Walker: He said the pressure stockings help relieve clots and bedsores? Meredith: They do. Mr. Walker: I wanted to thank you for everything. Believing in me, that I wasn't making it up. Meredith: Well, I'll come back tomorrow, then. Mr. Walker: Hey, I wanted to show you something. I wasn't sure it would last but now look. (He moves his finger) I know it's hardly anything, but... Meredith: No, it's something. It's something really big. MVO: At the end of the day, faith is a funny thing. (Izzie in the elevator with Mr. Duff) MVO: It turns up when you don't really expect it. Izzie: Mr. Duff, you're still with us. Mr. Duff: For your recipe...one tablespoon coconut extract. MVO: It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. (Meredith and Derek outside getting into his car) Meredith: Where are we going? Derek: Trust me. (George and Olivia leaving together) MVO: The castle, well...it may not be a castle. (Cristina watches Mr. and Mrs. Glass leave) (Alex in Devo's room) Devo: Does it b*at or moo? MVO: And it's not so important that it's happy ever after. (Burke is watching from outside the door) MVO: Just that it's happy right now. (Izzie pulls cupcakes from the oven, screws the lid on the coconut extract, eats one and picks up the phone) Izzie: Mom. It's me. Cricket. MVO: See, once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you. Izzie: I'm good. I've been thinking about you a lot too. (Meredith and Derek outside, it is dark, they are walking) Meredith: Where are we? Derek: Shh, shh. I'm gonna tell you. All right. My mother's maiden name, Maloney. I have four sisters. I have, uh, nine nieces. Five nephews. I like coffee ice cream, single-malt scotch, occasionally a good cigar. I like to fly fish. And I cheat when I do the crossword puzzle on Sunday. And I never dance in public. Um, favorite novel, The Sun Also Rises. Favorite band, The Clash. My favorite color is blue. I don't like light blue, indigo. The scar right here on my forehead, that's why I don't ride motorcycles anymore. And I live in that trailer. All this land is mine. I have no idea what I'm gonna do with it. So that's it. That's all you've earned for now. The rest you're just...just gonna have to take on faith. (Meredith takes a few steps toward the trailer) MVO: And once in a while...people may even take your breath away. (Meredith reaches her hand out for him and they walk into the trailer)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x08 - Save Me"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 1x09: Who's Zoomin' Who? Original Airdate: 5/22/2005 Written by: Gabrielle Stanton, Harry Werksman Directed by: Wendy Stantzler (George is in the bathroom alone, his clothes are all over the floor) MVO: Secrets can't hide in science. Medicine has a way of exposing the lies. Within the walls of the hospital, the truth is stripped bare. (George is reading "Rashes, Hives and Skin Eruptions") MVO: How we keep our secrets outside the hospital...Well, that's a little different. (Izzie tries to enter the bathroom but the door is locked) Izzie: George. You locked the door. I need to take a shower. George: Uh, uh, I'll be out in a minute. Izzie: What are you doing in there? George: It's private. Izzie: Oh. Oh, God. I'm sorry. I get it. I didn't mean to interrupt. George: No, it's not that! Izzie: It's ok. Take your time. George: I am not doing what you think I'm doing. Izzie: You know what, there's really no need to explain. I'll wait. You just...finish. George: No, I'm...I'm coming. I'm coming out. MVO: One thing is certain. Whatever it is we're trying to hide, we're never ready for that moment when the truth gets naked. (Derek is asleep and there is a phone ringing, Meredith answers it) Woman: Dr. Grey, this is Ms. Henry from the nursing home. I'm calling about your mother. Meredith: Is she all right? Ms. Henry: Oh, it's nothing like that. Meredith: Can I call you later, then? Ms. Henry: Uh, I just wanted to... Meredith: I have to go. (Hangs up phone) Derek: Oh, my God. Who is calling you at this hour? Meredith: It's a wrong number. (George exits the bathroom to find Izzie outside the door grinning) Izzie: There's no reason to be ashamed. It's normal. Healthy, even. George: Well I'm not ashamed cause I wasn't doing anything. I don't have to. I have a girlfriend. Izzie: An imaginary girlfriend? George: An actual girlfriend. Izzie: You know what? It's no big deal. You don't have to lie. I get it. You have needs. (Meredith opens her bedroom door that Izzie had been leaning on) Meredith: What is going on out here? George: Nothing. Izzie: (Starts to say something, looks at George and changes her mind) Nothing. George: Nothing. Izzie: He's freaked out cause I caught him playing with little Jimmy and the twins. George: I have a girlfriend. Izzie: Ok. (George walks down the hallway and slams the door to his room) Derek: This sounds like fun out here. (Derek's phone rings, he looks at it but doesn't answer) Meredith: Aren't you gonna get that? It might be the hospital. Derek: It's not. Breakfast? MVO: That's the problem with secrets. Like misery, they love company. (Cristina in the hall of SGH on the phone) Cristina: No, look, I told you people I'm not coming for a counseling session. I know all my options. Yeah, uh, well I made my decision, and I made my appointment. I'll be there on the 16 th. MVO: They pile up and up until they take over everything. (Burke walks up) Burke: I paged you last night. Cristina: Oh, I wasn't on call. Burke: That's not why I paged you. You could give me your home number. Cristina: Um, Burke...Uh, I gotta go. MVO: Until you don't have room for anything else. (Chief Webber walks by rubbing his temple and trying to read the chart with obvious difficulty.) MVO: Until you're so full of secrets, you feel like you're going to burst. (George and Olivia are talking at a desk) Olivia: I had a really good time the other night. George: Yeah, me too. Are you, uh, feeling ok and everything? Olivia: I'm good. Great, now that I got to see you. Why? George: Oh, no reason. I'm good too, you know? Really good. You know. But, um, a little itchy. (Izzie walks up) Izzie: Hi, George. George: Hey. Izzie: Olivia. Olivia: Hi, Dr. Stevens. I'll see you later. George: Ok. Bye. Yeah. She's into me. Izzie: Way to go, George. She's cute. So this morning you really weren't... George: Anytime you want to apologize... Izzie: Then what were you doing in the bathroom for so long? George: I have to go. (George enters the locker room where Alex is trimming his nose hairs in the mirror. He checks around to see if anyone else is in there) George: Um... Alex: I know I'm pretty to look at and all, George, but back up. George: I need to ask you something. Alex: I'm waiting. George: I seem to be having this skin thing going on, like a rash, really. And I think I know what it is, but I can't get close enough to tell for sure. Alex: Let's see it. George: It's kinda located in an, um, you know, private... Alex: You're a doctor, George. It's called a penis. You have a rash on your penis? George: I think I can describe it. Um, it's k...red. Alex: Look, just come on. Just show me your junk so we can get this over with. (George looks around again and then slowly unties and opens his scrubs. Alex looks and makes a grimacing face.) George: So? Alex: Dude, you've got syphilis. (Alex leaves and George checks out his rash in the mirror.) (Patients room, there is a man on a gurney and a very pregnant woman standing at his side) Alex: Patient presented with abdominal pain and blood in his urine. Once his workup come back unrevealing, the urologist suggested a cystoscopy. Burke: Reason? George: To get a look inside the bladder. Man: I appreciate you doing this, Preston. I know this is a little out of your field. Burke: That's not a problem. It gives my interns something to do. Man: I have a feeling you keep them plenty busy. We were in the same frat at Tulane. It's gone from torturing pledges to torturing interns. Am I right? Burke: Be very careful how you two answer that. Man: I could tell some stories. Burke: Bill, you have a camera snaking up your mojo. It's not the time to cross me. Woman: It isn't anything too serious? Burke: That's what this procedure will tell us. You don't worry about anything but growing my godson in there. Woman: He kicks like you wouldn't believe. Burke: A badass, just like his father. Move a little to the right. Your other right. There. Bill: What do you see? What is it? Burke: Could be any number of things. O'Malley, take a biopsy of the mass. Dr. Karev, schedule a CT. Let's not worry until we have to. (Derek is in the gallery watching Chief Webber perform surgery) Richard: There's too much damage. We'll have to remove most of the colon instead of a local resection. (He tries to stitch the colon up and can't seem to do it.) Richard: You gotta push it up. (He tries and misses again) Richard: More suture. And what's with these damn lights in here. (Meredith readjusts the lights) (Cristina and Izzie examining Mr. Franklin. He has a very large stomach.) Cristina: Mr. Franklin, how long has your abdomen been like this? Mr. Franklin: It's been getting bigger for a while. Mrs. Franklin: I told him there was something wrong. No one gets fat like this so fast. I told him. Daughter: Everybody told him. Izzie: He has dullness to percussion and spider angiomas. Daughter: What's all that mean? Cristina: It means, we have to admit you father and run some tests. Daughter: Great! What's that gonna cost us this time? Mrs. Franklin: Alice, don't. (George walks up the lab pickup window) George: Hi, uh, results for George O'Malley? Tech: I don't see it here. What's the patient's name? George: O'Malley, George. Look, it's just a simple blood test. Tech: Here you go. George: Thank you. (Izzie enters and drops something off at the lab) Izzie: Franklin, Jordan, I need this back ASAP. Tech: What a shocker. Izzie: (To George) Hey, what did you get, something good? (Grabs George's results) Syphilis? That's not surgical. Who has syphilis? (George pulls Izzie into the nurse's station) George: (To nurse leaving) Excuse us, sorry. Izzie: You have syphilis? George: Shh! (George closes all the blinds and the door) George: I don't know how this happened. Izzie: Of course you do. God, Olivia must really be getting around. George: Olivia, she's not like that. Izzie: It's a new millennium, George. The only people who aren't like that are the Amish and, apparently, you. George: You don't know. Maybe I've been sleeping around. Maybe I got ladies. Shut up. What am I gonna do? Izzie: It's no biggie, couple doses of Penicillin will knock it out. George: What am I gonna do about Olivia? Izzie: Well, for starters, stop sleeping with her, unless you want that thing to fall off. George: Ok, that is twice that you have trash-talked the girl that I could one day potentially...well, not love but like a whole lot. Izzie: If she gave it to you, you have to tell her. George: Three. Izzie: Fine. She didn't give it to you. She was a virgin when you met. You still have to tell her so she can get tested. George: Oh, yeah? How am I gonna tell her? "Uh, hey, Olivia. How you doing? By the way, I got the syph. How about you?" Izzie: Maybe not quite like that. George: No, it's good advice, really good advice. Thank you very much. (George leaves, Izzie is still smiling) (Chief Webber's surgery) Richard: Retract here. Bailey: Oh! This just isn't holding. Richard: Give me a bigger retractor, please. (Nurse hands him a retractor which he drops) Nurse: Sorry, doctor. Richard: It wasn't you. Dr. Bailey, you can finish this. Bailey: Uh, thank you, chief. I appreciate the opportunity. I'll just... (Richard leaves. Meredith looks up to Derek in the gallery.) (Bill is getting his CT and George and Alex are in the scanning room) Alex: I gotta say, George, I didn't think you had it in you. It's always the quiet ones. So whos the woman? George: None of your business. Alex: Oh, come on. Who gave you the cooties on the playground? George: You must have had something like this before, right? Alex: I never talk about my penis with other men. (Tech looks at George) George: I don't n... either, normally. (Results show up from the CT scan) George: We better get Burke. (Izzie and Cristina enter Mr. and Mrs. Franklin's room) Cristina: Mr. Franklin? You have a condition known as ascites. Mrs. Franklin: Oh, my God. I knew it was terrible. Izzie: It just means there's fluid in the peritoneal cavity. The abdomen. And the swelling is pressing against you lungs which is why you're having trouble breathing. Cristina: In your case, it looks like a symptom of liver disease. Alice: And it all comes together. Mrs. Franklin: Alice, not now. Cristina: Is there something we should know? Mr. Franklin: I drink a bit. Alice: That's the understatement of the year. Mr. Franklin: That's enough out of you. Alice: Hey! I'm only here for Mom, to make sure you don't pull any of your usual crap. (Burke is reviewing Bill's scan images) Burke: There's definitely a growth, protruding into the bladder, but look at the edges. I don't think it's a tumor. Alex: Kind of shaped like an ovary. Burke: That the flip answer you're gonna give your patient, Dr. Karev? This is one of my oldest friends. You might want to take this seriously. Alex: I'm sorry, sir. Burke: You better be. George: I got the rest of the labs back. They did a chromosome analysis of the tissue. You won't believe this. (Burke looks at the lad results) Burke: Bill has an ovary? (Bill and Burke smile at each other through the glass) (Cristina and Izzie are updating Bailey on Mr. Franklin) Izzie: Um, according to his daughter, Mr. Franklin is a heavy drinker. Cristina: Six to eight drinks a day, an alcoholic by any standard. Bailey: Protocol? Cristina: Schedule a paracentesis. Bailey: Reason? Izzie: Uh, draining the fluid will relieve the pressure from the lungs. Bailey: Good, but don't schedule it. Do it. Izzie: You want us to do the procedure? Bailey: You've seen one, right? Cristina: Absolutely. Bailey: Well, now do one. Izzie: I've never seen one. Cristina: You're about to. Izzie: Oh, my God. (Alex and George walking in the stairwell) George: God, an ovary. Alex: It kinda gives new meaning to the term "metrosexual." (Olivia enters the stairwell) Olivia: Hi, George. George: Olivia. Alex: What am I, invisible? Olivia: Alex. George: You go ahead. I'll catch up with you later. (Alex leaves and George and Olivia make out) Olivia: About time I got you alone today. (They make out again) George: Olivia... Olivia: What time is your shift done? George: Olivia... Olivia: Because mine's over at 8, and I thought maybe you could come over. George: Olivia! I need to tell you something. Olivia: What's wrong? Are you breaking up with me? George: What? No. Oh, no. Really, no. It's just...Ok, you're the only person that I've been with in a long time. I mean, not unusually long or anything, you know? Just a normal amount of long time. But it wouldn't matter to me if you've been with someone else. Maybe you have? I'm not accusing you of anything or, you know, judging you or handing out scarlet letters or anything, you know? It's...you're a woman, you know? A very attractive woman. Of course you've been with other men. Not that you've been with a lot of men, it's not like you're a prosttute... Olivia: A prosttute? George: No! Not a...not a prosttute. What...? No, the opposite of a prosttute, a lady. You're very ladylike. I mean, you're very bendy, but... Olivia: George, breathe. George: Ok. It's just...ok, here's the thing. I really like you, Olivia. I like you a lot. Olivia: Well, I like you too. (They make out again, George pushes her away) George: I have syphilis. (Olivia looks at him and then without saying anything runs off) George: That could have gone better. (Chief Webber's office, there is a picture of him on a magazine and a plaque for best doctor in America. He is still rubbing his temple. Derek knocks, enters and closes the door.) Derek: You dropped a retractor. Richard: Fine. A few weeks ago, I was operating, and the vision in my right eye became blurry. After a few hours, it was fine. It's come back again. Derek: Did you have it checked out? Richard: The examination was normal. My ophthalmologist tells me I'm just getting older. But you know what a decline in my visual acuity can mean. Derek: I'll set up some tests. Richard: Shep, I know how the rumor mill runs around here. Let's just keep this to ourselves. Derek: Absolutely. Yeah. (George is walking through the outdoor picnic area with Alex) George: Do you think she's talking about me? Alex: She's absolutely talking about you. Dude, that's a good thing. (They walk past Olivia's table) George: No, no it's not. Alex: Georgie, get a clue. Syphilis is the best thing that ever happened to you. In their eyes, you're a player. (They sit down at a table with Cristina and Izzie. Izzie is feeling Cristina's forehead) Cristina: Hey, syph-boy. George: You told her? Izzie: Just Cristina. Alex: "Syph-boy." It's got a nice ring to it, it's kinda like Superboy, only diseased. Cristina: Izzie didn't have to say a word. Around here, the only thing that spreads faster than disease is gossip. George: That's not true. Just cause Izzie can't keep her mouth shut doesn't mean everyone knows. (Meredith enters) Meredith: Hey, George. How are you feeling? Sorry about the syphilis. George: Everyone in this hospital knows? Alex: Knows you're a player. George: You're disturbed. Alex: True. Everybody's got a secret. Just be glad yours is out in the open. Cristina: Oh, yeah, Alex? What's yours? Alex: You show me yours, and I'll show you mine. (Cristina looks at Burke as he walks by) Alex: I bet you've got some seriously kinky skeletons in your closet. Cristina: What's in my closet is none of your business. Izzie: Well, I don't have any secrets. My life is boring. Meredith: Everybody's got something to hide. (Everyone stares at Meredith) (Burke enters Bill's room) Burke: Well, the mass we found is not a tumor. Bill: Well, that's good, right? Anything's got to be better than cancer. Burke: Well, that's where it gets a little tricky. The chromosomal tests have revealed that your body contains DNA from two different embryos that merged in the womb at the very beginning of development. In rare cases such as yours, the condition can preduce gonadal hermaphroditism. Bill: I'm hearing scary words here, Preston, you know, pay-cable kind of words. Burke: In English, the mass in your bladder is an ovary. Bill: Huh? Burke: Don't worry. We're gonna remove it. We have an excellent gynecological surgeon on staff. Bill: You're telling me I'm a guy with an ovary? Burke: It's simply a quirk of nature, man. Bill: What am I gonna tell Holly? Burke: That you're gonna be fine. Bill: I'm still a man, right? Burke: A man's man, a Kappa man. Bill: I mean...you know, my sex life. Burke: You been having any problems? Bill: (Laughing) Was it my very pregnant wife that gave it away? (They both laugh) Burke: Come on, man, don't worry. You never knew it was there. You won't miss it when it's gone. (Alex is giving George shts of penicillin) George: Are you sure you know what you're doing? Alex: It's a sht of penicillin, George. Be grateful I'm even doing this. I've already seen more of you than I ever wanted to. I'll be fighting nightmares for a week. George: Ok, you know what? Forget this. Alex: Do you want to get rid of the syph or not? Just shut up and drop 'em. (George pulls down his pants and bends over the gurney) George: I cannot believe this. (Meredith enters) George: Meredith, go away! Meredith: Oh, George. Thought you could use some moral support. George: NO! No, moral support. I'm indisposed here. Meredith: George, it's not a big deal. And you have a cute butt. Alex: I have a cute butt too. You want to see? Meredith: Oh, get out. You're doing it wrong. Alex: Be my guest. George: What...? Alex. Alex. Wha...? (Alex leaves and Izzie enters) George: Hey! Izzie: What are we doing here? George: Breaking George's spirit. Meredith: Curing George's syph. George: I don't like needles. Meredith: Good thing you became a doctor. Other side. (Cristina yells from the hallway) Cristina: Izzie? Izzie: Yeah? Cristina: Uh, Mr. Franklin's procedure's been scheduled for after lunch... (Cristina enters) Cristina: Oh, what are we doing? Izzie: We are saving George from a future of festering sores and insanity. Cristina: Oh, cute butt. Meredith: Told ya. Izzie: It is cute, like a baby's. George: You know, I have spent hours, days, years, imagining myself half-naked in a room with three women. The reality is so much better. (George leaves) Cristina: I think he's gonna cry. (They all laugh) (Meredith is on the phone with Ms. Henry from the nursing home) Ms. Henry: Hi. It's Ms. Henry again. Is this a better time? Meredith: Sorry about this morning. I wasn't alone and...what were you calling about? Ms. Henry: I just wanted to remind you that tonight's our monthly family dinner. You know, you haven't been to any of our family functions. Meredith: You have to understand. I'm a surgical intern, so my time isn't my own. Ms. Henry: Our residents really respond to these events. They always enjoy themselves which is so rare. I think it's important you attend. Meredith: I'll be there. I'll try to be there. I'll definitely try. (Derek and Richard walking through the hall) Derek: I've cleared some time for your MRI. Richard: Good. Let's get going. Derek: Ok. (Derek leaves as Patricia walks up) Patricia: Uh, sorry to bother you with this, chief. We've got kind of a situation. Richard: What now? (Richard is standing in front of a room full of doctors and interns with Patricia seated near him) Richard: Three interns, four residents and six nurses on this surgical floor have been diagnosed with...syphilis. (The room makes oohing noises) Patricia: There are over 70,000 new cases every year. (Olivia looks at George across the room) Patricia: Undiagnosed, syphilis can lead to blindness, insanity and death. Richard: If you are having unprotected sex with another member of the staff, get tested. (Burke looks at Cristina across the room) Richard: This is not a request. (Everyone laughs) Richard: Patricia will now give you a safe-sex demonstration. (Laughing continues) (Patricia stands up holding a condom and a banana) Patricia: When the time is right, and, gentlemen, you'll all know when that time is, carefully open the condom packet and roll it onto the banana. (Derek enters) Derek: (Whispering to Richard) We should try and get down to do the MRI now. Richard: This isn't really a good time. Derek: If you want to do this without anybody else knowing, you should do it now. Patricia: Open communication is essential to a healthy relationship. In a responsible relationship... Meredith: (Whispering to Cristina) Poor George. Cristina: Yeah. You know, I think he really likes Typhoid Mary. Meredith: Well, not many budding relationships survive a good dose of VD. Cristina: Yeah. Patricia: When the banana is finished... Meredith: Yeah. Patricia:...gently peel off the condom and dispose of it properly. With every fresh banana, always use a fresh condom. (The line to the blood lab is VERY long, Cristina is at the end of it. The elevator nearby dings open and a lab tech gets out. Burke is in the elevator not planning on exiting until he sees Cristina and then he hurries out of the elevator. He gets in the blood lab line.) Burke: You're avoiding me. Cristina: I'm busy, at work. I-I'm working. Burke: Why are you in this line? Cristina: It's the syphilis line. Burke: You don't need to be in this line. Cristina: I don't? Burke: There's no one else. (Cristina looks at him surprised) That surprises you? Cristina: Nothing surprises me. Burke: Do I need to be in this line? Cristina: No. Burke: Ok, then. Cristina: Ok. (They both get out of the line and head in opposite directions) (Izzie walks up) Izzie: Hey. Cristina: Oh, hey. Izzie: Mr. Franklin is prepped and ready. Cristina: Excellent. Izzie: God, look at this line. Well, at least we don't have to stand in line. That's the one good thing about the fact neither of us is getting any, right? Cristina: Yeah. (They go to Mr. Franklin's room) Cristina: Mr. Franklin, we've given you a local anesthetic, but you might feel some pressure. Mr. Franklin: Ok. I'm ready. Cristina: Grab the skin. Izzie: Ok. Cristina: I'm in the peritoneal cavity. Izzie: That fluid is bloody. Is it supposed to be bloody? Mr. Franklin: You've done this before, right? Cristina: Of course. Millions of times. Izzie: You're doing great, Mr. Franklin. Cristina: Ok. Wait, wait. Ok, go. Good. Now all we have to do is wait. (Derek and Richard are examining his MRI scans) Derek: You see that right there? Richard: Mm-hmm. Derek: It's a tumor, and it's pressing against your optic nerve. Richard: Is it operable? Derek: Oh, definitely. It does have its risks. Richard: You mean I could lose my sight? Just what I need, a syphilis outbreak and a tumor. Derek: Well, it's probably unrelated. Richard: All right, Derek, lets see how good you really are. Derek: All right. I'll put a team together. Richard: All my people only. And I still want this kept under wraps. The vultures will be circling soon enough. Derek: Aren't I one of the vultures? Richard: Why do you think I want to keep an eye on you? Get going. We're doing this tonight. Derek: Right. (Meredith enters just as Richard is leaving) Meredith: You paged? Derek: Yeah, I need you to help me out on something for the chief. Can you keep a secret? Meredith: Better than you think. (Cristina and Izzie in Mr. Franklin's room) Cristina: How much fluid can one body hold? Izzie: Shh! There's a lot of fluid in there, Mr. Franklin, but were almost finished. Mr. Franklin, are you sleeping? (She shakes him) Mr. Franklin? (She checks his pulse) He has no pulse. Cristina: What? Izzie: He has no pulse! (Cristina hits the code button will Izzie starts CPR, the code team runs in a moment later) (Cristina and Izzie leaving the room) Cristina: How could he die just like that with no warning? Izzie: There was blood in the tube when it first went in. What if it's our fault? What if we did something wrong? Cristina: We didn't do anything wrong. We did a textbook procedure. (They walk up to a desk where Bailey is standing) Bailey: I checked you chart. You did everything by the book. Izzie: He died on our watch. We must have missed something. Bailey: You couldn't have known. There was no history of heart problems. His death wasn't your fault. Cristina: When's the autopsy? Bailey: There isn't gonna be an autopsy. Cristina: What? How are we supposed to know the cause of death? Bailey: It's going down as cardiopulmonary arrest complicated by liver disease. Izzie: But an autopsy would... Bailey: The family decided they didn't want an autopsy. Cristina: But, Dr. Bailey... Bailey: They don't want an autopsy. Let it go. (Derek runs up to Bailey and Meredith in the hall) Derek: How goes out special super secret silent sunset surgery? I've been practicing that. Bailey: You have too much time on your hands. Uh, tell the chief I'll be there. Just let me know when and where. I'm in. Meredith: Ok. (Bailey leaves) are you nervous? Derek: It's a complicated surgery. I make one mistake, I end a fellow surgeon's career, my mentor's career. Oh, no, I'm not nervous. Meredith: So just for the record... Derek: Mm-hmm. Meredith: ...you'd tell me if I need to get tested, right? Derek: You think I have syphilis? Meredith: No, I don't. It's just...we never made any rules or anything. I mean, we never said, "We have rules," and I wouldn't hold it against you. Derek: When would I have time to go out and get syphilis? You're a handful enough as it is, and besides, we're like, practically a condom ad. Meredith: But no more glow-in-the-dark ones. Derek: You see? There's nothing to worry about. Maybe we should, you know make some rules, I mean. Meredith: We should. Derek: Ok. Meredith: Ok. Derek: Just for the record... Meredith: Uh-huh? Derek: I like the glow-in-the-dark ones. Meredith: I bet you do. (Meredith leaves and Derek's phone rings, he doesn't answer it but looks concerned) (Bill's surgery) Dr. Knox: That's the last of the ovarian material. I just need to sew up the perforation on the bladder wall. (Looks at Burke) Uh... (Shakes her head) Burke: Is there a problem, Dr. Knox? Dr. Knox: Well, you said this man's wife is pregnant? Burke: Due in five weeks. Why? Dr. Knox: Our patient has a blind vas deferens. Burke: Bill is sterile? Dr. Knox: And always has been. George: Then who got his wife pregnant? (Everyone just looks at each other) George: Oh! Alex: Sucks to be Bill right now. (Alex, George and Burke are walking through the hallway) George: How's Burke gonna tell him the baby's not his? Alex: Burke's not gonna tell him. George: He has to, their friends. Alex: Bill's better off not knowing. George: Do you think Holly knows Bill's not the father? Alex: Maybe, maybe not. George: I think Bill should know his wife's cheating on him. I'd wanna know. Burke: I don't remember asking for your opinions, so keep them to yourselves. George: Sorry, sir. (To Alex) You're such as gossip. (Izzie and Cristina are in the waiting room with Alice and Mrs. Franklin) Izzie: We know how confusing this must be, your husband dying so suddenly. But an autopsy will tell us why. Mrs. Franklin: So you think we should do the autopsy? Alice: No, we just wasn't this to be over. Cristina: But, don't you want to know for certain what klled him? Alice: My father was a mean drunk who couldn't hold a job. That's what klled him. Izzie: I understand that you're angry. But knowing for sure might help give you some closure. Mrs. Franklin: It was awfully sudden, Alice. Alice: Sudden? He's been klling himself for years. Mrs. Franklin: He was a good man. Maybe...maybe they're right. Maybe we should do the autopsy. Alice: Mom, stop it. He's dad. It's finally over. Mrs. Franklin: Alice, your father would have wanted... Alice: Who cares what he wanted? Can't we please just try and get out of this with whatever shred of dignity this family has left? (Izzie, Cristina and Meredith are in the unused hallway sitting on a gurney) Meredith: You guys want to perform an unauthorized autopsy? Izzie: I know you, Cristina. You do not want to be known as the new 007. An autopsy clears your name. Meredith: Cristina, no. Izzie: What about Franklin's wife? You saw the way she was looking at me. She wants the autopsy. She just didn't want to fight with her daughter. She looked so sad. Ok, Cristina Yang, license to kll. Cristina: Ok, I'm in. Meredith: I am so not involved in this. Cristina: Meredith, this is Fight Club. Nobody talks about it. Meredith: Fine. Cristina: We have to do it when Bailey's not around. Izzie: Bailey's always around. She's everywhere and knows everything. Cristina: Well, we have to take our chances. Meredith: Bailey's got something tonight from 7 to 11. You two will be the last thing she's worried about. Cristina: How do you know that? Izzie: What kind of something? Meredith: Oh, I can't tell you that. It's Fight Club too. (Meredith runs off) Cristina: If I'm missing out on a real patient because of this, they're gonna call me 007 because I've klled you. (Derek enters the OR, the door has signs that read Do Not Enter-Closed For Maintenance. Richard is inside prepping for his surgery.) Derek: How we doing? Richard: Did you lock up the gallery? Derek: Don't worry. We're flying under the radar. What did you put out there, the Midas Rex? Bailey: We've got it, chief. Richard: How much cancomycin is there? Bailey: One gram, as ordered, sir. Richard: You're not gonna be too liberal with those benzos, are ya? Derek: You know, doctors make the worst patients. You should just breathe in the happy gas. Stop running my OR. I got you covered. (Cristina and Izzie have Mr. Franklin's body and are getting ready to start the autopsy) Izzie: We stole a body. We're body snatchers. What if somebody from the morgue comes looking for Franklin? Cristina: Well, A, it's in the middle of the night, and, B, the thing about being dad is people stop looking for you. Izzie: Ok. (Clears her throat and prepares to start) Cristina: When's the last time you did an autopsy? Izzie: I took gross anatomy just like you. I'm just trying to remember. Cristina: You know hold on. Hold on. Wait. Hold on. (She starts digging around for something and produces a text book) Izzie: You brought a textbook? Cristina: Uh, if we're gonna do this we're gonna do it right. Izzie: Ok. Cristina: Ok, got it. Izzie: You sure? Cristina: It's not like we can kll him twice. Izzie: Let me cut. Cristina: You'll get your turn. Izzie: You should really be using the ten-blade. Cristina: Will you stop backseat cutting? Go get the saw. (Derek is just finishing up Richard's surgery) Derek: Ok, I've sutured the drain in place. The staples look fine. All right, we're done here. Dr. Bailey, you want to wrap him? Bailey: I got it. Derek: Nice work, everybody. Nicely done. Bailey: Thanks. Derek: Good. Meredith: Do you think the optic nerve is damaged? Bailey: If it is, when he wakes up, he'll... Meredith: He'll be blind? For how long? Bailey: Forever. Page Stevens and Yang. Tell them I want them covering your patients. I need you to stay and monitor the chief. Meredith: Cristina and Izzie, um...I think they're already swamped. Bailey: With what? Meredith: Labs. They had to check on some labs. Bailey: Oh, you are lying. I know you're lying. You know how I know? Cause you're a bad liar! I hate a bad liar. (To surgeon) Take over for me. I know exactly where they are. Here. Take over for me. (Burke is talking to Holly outside of Bill's room) Burke: Your whole relationship is a lie. Holly: We're happy. We've wanted a child for a long time. Why do you want to take this away from him? Burke: Does he know you've been cheating on him? Holly: Preston, this is between Bill and me. Burke: Then man has a right to know that this isn't his child. Holly: Please, just let this go. Why can't you let this go? Burke: Because Bill is my best friend. That's why. Holly: If you were really his friend, you wouldn't do this. Burke: Holly, please! Tell him the truth! Holly: Why? I'm not gonna ruin my life, because you think this is wrong. Burke: Your life? What about his life? What about this child's life? Holly: What Bill doesn't know won't hurt him. Burke: Fine. Maybe his friend wouldn't tell him the truth. But I'm also his doctor, and his doctor is not going to lie to him. (Meredith is in the hall outside of Richard's room on the phone.) Meredith: I know but something came up, an important surgery and I couldn't. Ms. Henry: I'm just sorry you couldn't be there for your mother. Meredith: Ms. Henry, if my mother were lucid, she would understand. She's a surgeon. She's done this countless times. And besides that, she doesn't even know who I am, anyway, so... Ms. Henry: Today she did. Meredith: What? Ms. Henry: Your mother's been asking when her daughter Meredith gets off from work. (Derek walks up) Derek: Hey. Meredith: Hey. (Hanging up the phone) A lot of secret phone calls today. (After a long pause) Yeah, it's my mother. She isn't traveling. She isn't writing a book. She isn't anything. I've been lying to everyone. Derek: Why? Meredith: She has Alzheimer's. Derek: How advanced? Meredith: Very. She's in a home and I'm the only one who even knows she's sick. I just don't know what to do anymore, you know? (He kisses her forehead and smoothes her hair. Richard wakes up and this is the first thing he sees) (Cristina and Izzie are performing the autopsy when Bailey enters) Bailey: Don't even tell me you're doing what I think you're doing! Cristina: Um... Bailey: Not only did you disregard the family's wishes, you broke the law! You could be arrested for asault! Do you like jail? The hospital could be sued! I could lose my license, my job! I like my job! Did you think about any of this before you started cutting open a poor man's body? I could seriously kick both of your asses right now. Do you have anything to say? (Izzie picks up Mr. Franklin's heart from the scales) Izzie: Look at his heart. Bailey: It's huge! Izzie: It's over 600 grams, and there's some kind of grainy material in it. Cristina: We want to run some tests. Bailey: Oh, now you want to run tests? Cristina: At this point, what could it hurt? Bailey: I hate both of you right now. (Meredith enters Richard's room to check on him) Richard: Meredith? He's an attending. You're an intern. Meredith: You saw us? You can see. Richard: I'm gonna tell you what your mother would say if she were here. You're making a mistake, a big one. Meredith: And I would tell my mother it's not a mistake. (Izzie, Cristina and Bailey are in a conference room with Alice and Mrs. Franklin) Alice: We specifically said no autopsy. Bailey: I understand why you're upset. Alice: You understand? We're gonna get an attorney. Come on, Mom. Cristina: We know what klled him. He had a blood condition known as hemachromatosis. The disease causes an excess amount of iron to build up in the body, and that's what caused the heart failure, not the paracentesis. Alice: But I thought he was always so sick cause of the drinking. Mrs. Franklin: And you never let him forget it. Or me. Alice: Mom... Izzie: There's something else. The disease is genetic. Mrs. Franklin: You think Alice could have it too? Izzie: A simple blood test will tell us. If you have it, we'll have caught it early enough to treat it before the condition becomes critical. Bailey: Dr. Stevens and Dr. Yang may have saved your life. If you could just sign this consent form for the autopsy. Just a formality. MVO: The thing people forget is how good it can feel when you finally set secrets free. (George is looking in on Burke talking to Bill) MVO: Whether good or bad, at least they're out in the open, like it or not. (Olivia enters the locker room where George is sitting) George: Um, about before... Olivia: George, I want you to understand, when we started dating, I was already kind of seeing someone. I didn't know how much I'd like you, and when I realized, I broke it off with the other guy... George: Other guy? Who's the other guy? (Olivia looks up and George turns around to see Alex standing there) George: You and Alex? You and Alex?! (Screaming at Alex as he att*cks him) You gave me syphilis?! Olivia, Izzie, Cristina, and Meredith: George! George! George! George, back off! (They pull George off of Alex) Meredith: Alex! Cristina: George! Izzie: Back off, Alex. (Meredith enters the lobby where Derek is waiting for her) MVO: And once your secrets are out in the open, you don't have to hide behind them anymore. Derek: Long day. Meredith: Yeah. Derek: Somewhere out this is a steak with your name on it and maybe a bottle of wine. Meredith: This is why I keep you around. Derek: So we need to talk. Meredith: Wine first, talk later. Derek: You trying to, uh, get me drunk so you can take advantage of me? Meredith: I think I like this rules thing. Derek: Me too. (Derek helps her fix her coat and they turn to leave. A stunning red headed woman is standing there and Derek is wide eyed) Derek: (Turning to Meredith) Meredith, I am so sorry. MVO: The problem with secrets is even when you think you're in control... (The woman walks over) Derek: Addison. MVO: ...you're not. Derek: What are you doing here? Addison: Well, you'd know if you'd bothered to return any one of my phone calls. Addison: (To Meredith) Hi. I'm Addison Shepherd. (They shake hands) Meredith: Shepherd? Addison: (Pointing at Meredith) And you must be the woman who's been screwing my husband. (Meredith looks at Addison and then at Derek)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "01x09 - Who's Zoomin' Who?"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x01: Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head Original Airdate: 9/25/2005 Written by: Stacy McKee Directed by: Peter Horton (Meredith is at a bar, doing shts) MVO: To be a good surgeon, you have to think like a surgeon. Emotions are messy. Tuck them neatly away and step into a clean, sterile room where the procedure is simple. Cut, suture and close. Joe: You look familiar. You been here before? Meredith: Once. That worked out really well. Joe: I know that look. It'll be one of two things. Either your boss is giving you hell or your boyfriend is. Which is it? Meredith: Both. MVO: But sometimes, you're faced with a cut that won't heal. Meredith: My boyfriend is my boss, which was a problem. But not as big a problem as the fact that my boyfriend has a wife. Joe: Tell you what, this one, it's on the house. MVO: A cut that rips it's stitches wide open. (Derek and Addison in the lobby of the hospital) Derek: Addison, what are you doing here? Addison: Your hair's different. Derek: A lot of things are different. Addison: It's longer. I like it. It's very Russell Crowe. (She tries to run her fingers through his hair but he moves back) Derek: What are you doing here? Addison: What are you doing here? You just pick up and leave everything? Your house, your practice, your friends? You had a life in Manhattan. Derek: Had. Addison: And now you have a girlfriend in Seattle. She seems sweet. Derek: The ice you're on. Thin. Addison: She's young. That whole wide-eyed, ooh he's-a-brain-surgeon thing happening, but still sweet. Which was what you were going for, right? The anti-Addison? Derek: If you came out here to try and win me back, forget about it. Addison: I did. I flew all the way across the country to reminisce over wedding photos, get drunk, fall into bed, and make you realize you can't live without me. Relax. Derek, I'm here for work. I'm helping the TTTS case you guys admitted last week and from Richard's briefing, I should be� Derek: Richard, he knew you were coming out here? Addison: He asked me to come. Didn't he tell you? Derek: No. He didn't. Addison: Hmm. Surprise. The hair, though. You know I've always had a thing for Russell Crowe. (Izzie and Alex in the locker room, Alex has ice on his eye) Izzie: Let me see it. (Looks at his eye) No lacerations, minimal swelling. George really knocked you around. Alex: He's a lightweight. Could've pinned him in a second if I wanted. Izzie: Yeah, so why didn't you? Alex: Are you kidding? I'm riding a career in Plastics all the way to the bank. Can't afford to injure these babies. (Holds up his hands) Especially over some one like O'Malley. Izzie: You had it coming. Alex: The dude punches like my sister. Izzie: Oh! So, by your definition then you got bat up by a girl. (George and Cristina enter the bar) Joe: All hail the champ! (Everyone in the bar cheers) So, my guy Alex finally got what was coming to him. Cristina: George knocked him down in one punch. You should've seen it. George: I don't want to talk about it! Joe: brag, champ, brag. You've earned it. George: Can I have a beer, please? Meredith: Let's play a game of whose life sucks the most. I'll win. I always win. Cristina: No, you don't want to play with me. Meredith: Oh, I do. I'll even go first. Derek's married. (George spits his beer out) Cristina: George, beer is dripping from your nostrils. Meredith: Told you I'd win. Cristina: No, you didn't win. Meredith: Did you hear me? I said Derek is married. As in pigheaded, adulterous, liar married. Nothing you could say could top that. Cristina: I'm pregnant. I win. (In the background Joe is groaning and holding his head. A bar patron asks him if he is alright and Joe falls over.) Cristina: Ok. Maybe Joe wins. (Meredith and Cristina rush to Joe's side.) (Joe tries to get up) Cristina: Joe, like back down. Man: The medics are coming. Joe: You called the gurney patrol? Meredith: Sit back and relax. We have to take you to the hospital to run some tests. Joe: Tests? I don't need tests. I'm fine! Cristina: Dude! You collapsed! On the floor. This is you bar. You know how filthy this floor is. Meredith: Radial pulse is strong. Cristina: Minor skull contusions. Meredith: You're sleeping with someone? George: What? Who? Cristina: Why is that such a shock? Even George managed to get some action. George: Correction. George got some syphilis. Meredith: How could I not know, you were sleeping with someone? Joe: Forget this. Cristina: Joe! Joe: The hospital is right across the street. I can sure as hell walk across the street by myself. (He stands up) Cristina: Oh, I think we should� George: No, I got him. Joe! (Seattle scenes) (Hallway of SGH) Meredith: All right. Details. You're pregnant? What are you gonna do? Cristina: Look, you know what happens to pregnant interns. I'm not switching to the vagina squad or spending my life popping zits. I'm too talented. Surgery's my life. Meredith: Which begs the question: who are you sleeping with? Cristina: Just a guy. Meredith: That's all I get? You can't just bring something like this up and expect me to drop it. Cristina: Well, watch me. (They walk up to a desk where George and Izzie are standing) Izzie: Why are you back here tonight, don't you have a date with McDreamy? George: More like McMarried. Izzie: McWhat? Meredith: I came to check on Joe. George: You think he's gonna be ok? Cristina: You think he's gonna need an operation? (Derek walks up) Derek: Operation, yes. Ok, hard to tell. Basilar artery's blown up like a balloon. Subarachnoid bleeding. Aneurysm the size of a golf ball. George: No way to clip something like that. Cristina: Not without magic fingers. Derek: Or a standstill operation. Cristina: You're doing a standstill�he's doing a standstill operation. Derek: I'd like to try. First I need some additional patient history, overnight labs, and a cerebral angio. (He tries to hand the chart to Meredith) Meredith: I'm drunk. Derek: Meredith� (Meredith walks away and George grabs the chart. Derek tries to follow Meredith but the other interns step in his way.) Izzie: (Softly) McBastard. (Derek leaves. Cristina takes the chart from George) Izzie: Ahem. George: What are you doing? Cristina: Uh�I am on her side, but we're talking a possible standstill here. Recognize. (Meredith is walking out the front door as Derek catches up to her) Derek: Meredith! Meredith: Go away! Derek: Just wait. We should discuss this. Meredith: Here's a thought. No! Quit following me! Derek: At least let me explain. Meredith: Explain? You know when you should have explained? The night we met in the bar. Before any of the rest of it. Yeah, that would have been a good time to discuss it. Derek: Look, I know how you feel. Meredith: Do you? Somehow I doubt that. Because if you did, you would shut up, and you would turn around and go back inside, because you would realize that I am this close to getting in my car and running you down in the parking lot! (She leaves, George runs up to her with an umbrella. Derek goes back inside) George: Where are your keys? Meredith: I'm fine! George: Meredith, give me your keys. Let's go home. (Derek enters Richard's room to find Addison there. They are both laughing.) Addison: �ant the husband was the�(They stop as Derek enters the room) Well, I will be back in the morning to report for duty. And you�get some rest. (Addison leaves) Derek: What is she doing here? Richard: You and I both know she's the best in the field. Brining Addie out was a business decision, nothing personal. Derek: Oh, well, what a relief. It's not personal. It is personal to me. Richard: The working of my surgical unit don't have any� Derek: Don't include my wife! Richard: Don't include your private life! Burke will act as chief of surgery until I'm back on my feet. Derek: You gave chief to Burke. Richard: Like I said, there's no room for personal in being chief. Derek: What is that supposed to mean? Richard: How long have you have been sleeping with an intern. Derek: So, I guess part of being chief is personal. Richard: Close the door on your way out. (Seattle scenes) (Meredith lying in her bed) (Cristina in an empty OR, examining the instruments) Cristina: L.S. (Burke is standing outside the door) Cristina: Babcock. Burke: Right-angle clamp. Cristina: Oh. I'm gonna sterilize everything when I'm done. The scrub nurses won't even know I was here. Burke: My lips are sealed. So, I have a question to ask. I checked the schedule and I noticed that you and I are both off tonight. I made reservations. I have a favorite restaurant. Cristina: None of those were questions. Burke: Would you like to go out to dinner with me tonight? Cristina: You know, the OR is the one place where I can come and think. I'm thinking right now, ok? Burke: Of course. I get it. (George and Izzie are in the locker room) George: I'm not a violent person. I'm a pacifist. But, you know, he just kept pushing and push�he pushed me, I pushed back. (George keeps looking over his shoulder to where Alex is standing) George: I was pushed. And now he� Izzie: You know what, if Alex tries to lay a hand on you, just tell me, I'll take care of it. George: You�I don't need you to take care of it. If Alex starts something I'll handle it myself. I can handle it. (Bailey enters) Bailey: Ok, people, assignments. Yang, you're on discharges. O'Malley report to room E19. Grey come see me, and who was on call last night? (Bailey hands Alex and Izzie a stack of charts) Bailey: Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. Redo these and return them to me before lunch, understood? Alex: Understood. Bailey: Karev, don't tempt me. (To Meredith) Somebody's popular. Meredith: Meaning? Bailey: There's been a special request, just for you. (Burke is walking through the hall with Patricia) Burke: The chief runs through all of this? Before lunch. After, you've got calls to return, a budget to approve, two staff meetings, and four of Richard's surgeries, including your own. Burke: Absolutely. No problem. Patricia: Virgins. (Derek enters) Derek: So. Congratulations are in order. Burke: Don't sweat it Shepherd. I'll only be your boss for a few days. Derek: I'm well aware of Richard's recovery time. I'm the one who operated on him, remember? Burke: I do. You operated. He survived and chose me to take over while recruiting your wife. Derek: Clearly, he has brain damage. Burke: Or is it your ex-wife? I'm a little fuzzy on that. Derek: We're separated. Addison: Sorry to interrupt, Dr. Burke. Burke: You're never interrupting. Derek: She's always interrupting. Addison: I was just checking to see if Dr. Burke secured the intern� (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Intern you requested? He did. (Derek looks at Addison then Burke, Burke smiles and walks away. Derek walks away and leaves Meredith and Addison there staring at each other) (Seattle scenes) (Addison and Meredith are in a patient's room, Julie has TTTS.) Addison: Define TTTS. Meredith: Twin-twin transfusion syndrome. Conjoined fetal twins. Addison: Connected by? Meredith: Blood vessels in the placenta. Addison: Meaning? (Pause, Meredith does not answer) One twin gets too much blood, the other too little, endangering the lives of both. I'd expect you to know that, Grey. Julie: They told me there wasn't much chance anything could be done. Addison: TTTS is usually impossible to correct. Unless you happen to be one of a handful of surgeons in the world who knows how to separate fetal blood vessels. Which, luckily for you, I am. So were gonna get you into surgery tomorrow. If you have any questions at all please ask Dr. Grey. From what I have seen, she is one the hospital's most popular interns. (They walk into the hallway) Meredith: I could've answered your question had you given me the chance. Addison: Chin up, Grey. I'm this tough on everyone, not just the women my husband sleeps with. Order an ultrasound for her and pre-op labs in full. (Julie overheard the conversation between Addison and Meredith) (George goes to the nurses station) George: Hi. Can I have the chart for E19, please? Thank you. (He looks at the chart and realizes that it is the chiefs) Richard: Oh, good, you're here. Let's get started. George: Ok. (George starts examining the chief) Richard: O'Malley? George: Yeah? Richard: You're touching me. George: Yeah. Richard: No. Carmen�(He brushes off the nurse) I want you to listen to me very carefully. As long as I'm in here, I don't know what's happening out there. With my doctors. My patients. My hospital. You are my eyes today, my ears. I want you to be a sponge. George: A sponge? Richard: You repost any and everything happening in this hospital to me. George: I'm an investigative sponge. Richard: I'm not fooling around, O'Malley. There's too much been happening lately under my radar. It stops today. (George is in the hallway "sponging." Derek walks by and runs into Burke) Derek: Burke you gave Grey to Addison. Are you sure about that? Burke: That's not you call, Shepherd. And for the record, I'm always sure. Did you need me for something? Because as the new chief, I'm� Derek: Interim chief. Burke: "Chief" nonetheless. Derek: Ever attempt a standstill surgery? (Derek, Cristina and Burke are talking to Joe) Derek: It's the location of the aneurysm that makes it tricky. Burke: Your body temperature would be lowered cool enough to protect it from any damage and stop the heart. Derek: Which stops blood flow to the brain which reduces the risk of rupture. I'll have 45 minutes to clip the aneurysm. Burke: Before I step in and get the heart started again. Joe: You wanna freeze my body, drain my blood, and stop my heart? Derek: And bring you back. Joe: In under 45 minutes? Derek: Right. Joe: If you go over, is it free? Derek: No. Burke: Dr, Yang, you can go and handle the pre-op labs now. Cristina: Ok. Joe: How much? How much does something like this cost? (George is looking on) Derek: I don't think you should worry about that right now. Joe: Hey, look, you guys say that you can kll me and bring me back, I believe you. You're doctors, but I own a bar. I don't got any insurance so I'm not that concerned about the surgery so mush as what I'm gonna do when I survive it. I need a number. Ten grand? Twenty? Thirty? Derek: It's a couple hundred at least. Burke: At least. (Izzie and Alex are sitting on a gurney in the hallway fixing their charts) Alex: Who's Halloran? Izzie: Patient in 4115. Red hair? Wife knits all the time? He had the colectomy? Alex: Ah, colon dude. That's right. Who's Monterroso? Izzie: 4238. Mom with the really cute kids. She spiked a post-op fever last night. You spent two hours monitoring her. Alex: Hernia chick. That's right. Izzie: You have been treating these people for the last week. How can you not know their names? Alex: Surgery is the only specialty where we don't waste time getting to know the patients. They're slabs of meat, we're butchers. Izzie: They're human beings. You do know what a human is, don't you Evil Spawn? Alex: I'm not evil. Unless evil turns you on. Izzie: Do you ever wake up in the morning, realize nobody likes you, and, I don't know, care? Alex: Oh. I think somebody likes me. (Izzie rolls her eyes) (Cristina enters the stairwell where Burke is) Cristina: Hey. (Burke does not respond) What, you don't speak now you're chief? Burke! Burke: What do you want? Cristina: What? Burke: What do you want? You don't want to go out to dinner. You don't want to meet me in the on-call room, and you sure as hell don't want to talk to me. I could pretend I know, but hey, I don't even have your home phone number. So tell me, what do you want? Cristina: Don't yell at me. (Burke walks away) Wait. Hey, we're having a conversation here. Burke: Well, what do you want? Cristina: I don't know! (He grabs her and kisses her passionately) Burke: Figure it out. (Burke leaves Cristina standing there speechless. The camera pans up to where George had been standing, watching the whole encounter) (Seattle scenes) (Richard's room) Richard: What's the report? George: No report. It's very quiet today, sir. Richard: There's no news, gossip, surgeries I should know about? Now come on, what's the buzz, O'Malley? George: You know, not in the halls, not in the OR, not in the stairwells. Especially nothing happening in the, you know�they're just stairwells. (Alex sits down next to Joe's bed) Alex: They told me you were in a nightgown, but I thought I'd come and see it for myself. Very nice, huh. Joe: Heard O'Malley laid you out cold. Nice eye. (Nurse comes in and leaves a gift) Joe: Whoa, who sent that? Nurse: We all pitched in. The whole floor. Joe: Well, please, tell the whole floor a big thank you. Nurse: Yeah, I will. (Leaves) Joe: Alex, you gotta get me out of here, man. Get me transferred to County Hospital, or something. Alex: Oh, you don't want to go to County. Here, they can kll you and bring you back, but at County, they just know how to kll you. No joke. Joe: I can't afford this place, man. I'm gonna lose the bar. (Man walks by) Man: Hey, Joe, how you doing? Joe: Hey, Scooter. (Alex is picking food from Joe's gift basket) Joe: Ok, that's mine. Alex: Well first start things first, we're gonna start by saving your life, man. Joe: The bar is my life. You know that. You've been at last call with me, practically every night since you moved here. I'm gonna have to shut it down or sell it. Alex: You can't do that. Place is an institution. Joe: You know, I've owned the bar across the street for 14 years, and I've never been inside this hospital till now. Alex: Look, I'll pay my tab, right. That's gotta be good for something. How much is it? Joe: Close to a grand. Alex: How about I pay, like, 60? That's good. And I'll pay you back later. (George has been watching from afar) Joe: Hey, champ! (Meredith is getting ready to do an ultrasound on Julie) Julie: What does it take to go after another woman's husband? Meredith: Excuse me? Julie: It happened to me. Jeff moved in with a long-legged miniskirt who answer his phones, three weeks into my pregnancy. By the way, that gel is really cold. Meredith: I'm sorry. I'm sorry about your husband. Julie: Are you sorry about Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd's husband? Meredith: I'm going to be checking a few things today. Julie: I bet she asked to work with you. It's what I would have done. Meredith: I'm gonna go check on your labs. (Cristina enters Joe's room and goes directly to the bathroom and pukes) Joe: Heya, sunshine. Cristina: Deep breath. Joe: Morning sickness must suck. Cristina: Just so we're clear, do not breathe a word of what you heard last night to anyone. Not about me. Not about Meredith. Not about Meredith and Dr. McDreamy� (Burke enters) Joe: Hey, Dr. Burke. Burke: Joe. Cristina: Um, vital signs sab overnight. Today's CT shows no re-bleeding. (Cristina is having a difficult time presenting. Joe notices) The EKG�shows�um, normal sinus rhythm. No ischemia, no dysrhythmias. Burke: Looking good. Page me if there are any changes. (George is standing outside of Peds talking to himself) George: Oh, hi chief. No, not much going on. Other than your interim chief making out with my friend in the stairwell, but hey�sponge duty sucks. (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Talking to yourself now? George: Yes. No! damn it, I'm a bad sponge. A leaky sponge. I'm gonna leak all the wrong secrets. I'm a bad liar, can't even lie about talking to myself. You look nice today. Meredith: Wore my new lip gloss. Cause my ex-boyfriend's wife looks like Isabella freaking Rossellini, and I'm like�me. I'm trying to outdo her when she's the victim here. How crazy is that? George: Not crazy. Smart. You know, gloss, you know, prevents chapped lips and�you�ex-boyfriend? Meredith: I'm an evil mistress. George: Well, still. You look nice. Meredith: Thanks. What are you doing here? George: Well� Meredith: Come on, O'Malley. Out with it. George: Ok. Can you think of any reason, any reason at all, really, why Cristina would be kissing Burke? (Elevator doors dings open, Cristina is inside and Meredith is waiting outside. Lapse to Meredith inside) Meredith: After all this time. All your warnings about me sleeping with my boss, and you're doing the same exact thing? Cristina: It's not the same. Meredith: It's the exact� Cristina: No, it's not. You and McDreamy are in a relationship. Meredith: And you and Burke are in? Cristina: Switzerland. It's very neutral there. And they make very nice watches. Meredith: Have you even bothered to tell Burke about the baby? Are you going to? Cristina: Look, Meredith, can we not go there? Can everyone just accept the fact that there are some things I like to keep to myself? I don't discuss everything to death. Meredith: Well, why even confide in me at all. If you're so intent on not discussing it? Why even tell me? (Meredith is back in the TTTS woman's room) Julie: When I found out about the miniskirt, I called her up and took her to lunch. It was perfectly civil. I said I didn't hold it against her, that these things happened. But, really? I just wanted to put a face on the bitch that got my husband to throw away 15 years of marriage. (Meredith is concentrating on the ultrasound) (Burke enters the office where Bailey is sitting) Burke: Got a second? Bailey: Depends on what you need. Burke: Who the hell is Dr. McDreamy? (Bailey looks to where Derek is talking to Addison and George passes by) Bailey: Me. I'm Dr. McDreamy. I'm tall, handsome. I like to lean against things and ponder the difficulties of dating beautiful women. I'm trying to be a surgeon here! (Burke walks up to where Derek and Addison are talking) Derek: That took a lot of nerve. Addison: Oh come on, she came highly recommended. (Derek pulls her away as Burke draws near) Derek: Right. Addison: So you don't recommend her? Derek: No, I did not say that. Addison: Just not for her medical skills. Derek: Oh, would you shut up? (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd. Addison and Derek: Yes? Meredith: Labs confirm what look like abnormalities on the ultrasound. I think you should come and see for yourself. Addison: Fine. Let's go. Derek: Meredith. Meredith. Meredith: Don't. (Burke was looking on from near the surgical board. As Derek notices him, he turns to leave, almost running into George.) (Richard's room) George: Well, no report. You know, same nothing as earlier. I should go. Oh, actually there is something, sir. Richard: Burke and Shepherd marking territory on the playground? George: No, sir. It's about Joe. The bartender. The standstill patient. (Addison looking at Julie's ultrasound) Meredith: See. Bilateral pleural effusion with evidence of subQ edema. Julie: In English, please? Addison: We've detected what looks like beginning heart failure in the twins. Don't be alarmed. Julie: Are my babies gonna be ok? Addison: I'm gonna go ahead and take you into surgery now. We're not gonna wait. (To Meredith) Book the OR. Move. (Joe is being wheeled into surgery. He is giving instructions to Alex) Joe: Tell Pete to wash out the taps every night. Not every other night. And remind him that the delivery truck comes at 6 am. Kegs go in the back. Oh, another thing. There's petty cash on the top shelf in the storage closet. (George leaving Richard's room) Richard: We're operating on our patients. That's it. George: I know, but� Richard: I sympathize. I do. But solving Joe's finances is not my job, it's not your job, and it's sure as hell not the job I assigned you today. George: It just seems wrong to cut him open, sew him up, and just leave him, you know, left with nothing. Richard: If we can save his life, we'll hardly be leaving him with nothing. (Joe's OR. The Or is full of patients and the gallery is full of watchers) Derek: That's as far as I can go for now. Let's start cooling him. (All the doctors start packing Joe with ice packs) (Gallery, Bailey enters) Bailey: (To George) Can't see much from back here, O'Malley. George: I know. I'm trying to find a loophole to help Joe. You know Joe. Bailey: Oh, yeah. I was the only female intern my year. I didn't know anybody and nobody knew me except Joe. He knew me. George: Oh. So, you and Joe? Bailey: All you people ever thing about is how to get into somebody's pants. You're nasty. That's why you got syphilis. (She slaps George) Joe was the first person here to tell me I'd make a good surgeon. Not that he knew anything about it. But it was something when I had nothing. (Alex enters and sits next to Izzie) Alex: Oh, sure. I'm the guy with the heart of stone and you brought snacks. Izzie: It's a working lunch. Alex: Snacks to watch Joe die. Izzie: He's not gonna "die" die. They'll bring him back. Alex: He is going to "die" die. No "pulse" pulse. He's gonna be "dad" dad. Izzie: It's a granola bar, Alex. Not a bag of super-size popcorn and a box of chocolate movie mints. George: That's it. (Everyone looks at George) dad! (George runs out) Excuse me! (Julie's surgery) Addison: Julie, we're just gonna go in laparoscopically. You're not gonna feel anything and neither are the twins. Ok, let's get going. Ten blade. Begin with a three-millimeter incision. (Joe's OR) Burke: We stop the blood flow? Cristina: To protect the brain. Operate in a bloodless field so the aneurysm won't rupture. Burke: And cool the body? Cristina: To induce hypothermia. Uh, keeps the tissue viable until the blood is restored. Doctor: Body temp is at 60 degrees. Burke: Ok, Joe, time to die. (Burke clamps the blood line, and another doctor turns off the bypass) Doctor: Flatline. Derek: All right. We've got 45 minutes, people. Burke: Start the clock. Doctor: Got it. (Still Joe's OR, the clock is at 17 minutes 52 seconds) Derek: So what's your "Joe" story? Seems like everybody around here has one. Burke: You first. Derek: Ok. I went to Joe's place the night before I started working here. I'd only been in town, you know, a few days. I met this woman. I got drunk and she took advantage of me. Or she got drunk and I took advantage of her. I got drunk and she took� no. We were drunk. Definitely. Somebody took advantage. Either way, I like to look at it as my initiation into Seattle. What about you? Burke: Oh, I don't have one. I just wanted to hear yours. (George is at a desk on the phone) George: So, technically, the paperwork just needs to be submitted by midnight of the day of the surgery to be considered? Oh, good. Well, thank you very much. Thanks. (Julie's surgery) Addison: How you doing there, Grey? Meredith: Good. I'm good. (Gallery of Joe's OR) Alex: You know, I'm very sweet once you get to know me. Izzie: No, you're not. Alex: We could be good friends. Izzie: Alex. Never, ever, ever. Alex: Why not? Izzie: Give me one reason why we could? What about you is even remotely human? Alex: It's going too slowly. Izzie: I hope Joe can pull through this. Alex: He can. He will. He has to. (Inside Joe's OR) Derek: Damn it. I can't get the clamp to hold. Give me the bipolars. I'm gonna go in at a different angle. Burke: Time remaining? Derek: Irrigation, please. (Clock reads 27 minutes, 59 seconds) Cristina: 17 minutes. Burke: Shepherd, I'm gonna need eight minutes to get him back, to warm him up. Derek: Time to make the next 17 minutes count. Right there, go in from there. See it? See, that's why we can't do it right there. (Richard's room) George: He's dad. Technically. Which is science, and this is a huge thing. So I thought some research foundation has to have an interest in that. Richard: So, in essence, you want to donate Joe's body to science? George: At least for the next 17 minutes. Richard: Privately funded grant. George: For educational purposes. We're a teaching hospital. The standstill surgery qualifies. Richard: I didn't peg you for the type to ignore my instructions, O'Malley. George: All due respect, sir. It's worth a sht. It's someone's life. Richard: It's always someone's life, O'Malley. (Pause) You're hovering. You can leave now. George: Ok. (Joe's surgery, the clock reads 37 minutes) Nurse: Eight minutes. Burke: We need to start rewarming, Shepherd. Derek: Take the bipolars, please. Thank you. Burke: Shepherd, we need to start warming him up, now! Derek: Hang on. Burke: Now. I need it now, Shepherd. Derek: I can't seem to get� I just can't get behind the aneurysm. If I could get behind the aneurysm, I could�there it is. Got it. That's it. Burke: Are you sure? Derek: I'm always sure. Good work, everybody. It's all yours there, chief. Burke: Ok people, let's grab Joe before he decides to go into the light. Start warming him up. Clamps are coming off. Turn the pump on. Watch cerebral perfusion pressures. Keep M.A.P. at greater than 60, please. (Richard's room) Richard: I know you're enjoying yourself, Preston. It's a power kick to be the chief. You're never more surrounded. Never more alone. You're everyone's father, everyone's boss, and no one's friend. Choices you make. Clean slices and neat stitches. No emotions, no compromise, no personal life. Burke: But Richard� Burke: I just had brain surgery. I'm surrounded by fruit baskets. The only people who've been in this room come and kiss my ass. I gave you a sht for a reason, Preston. You and I , we're the same. We put the job first. (Burke is in the on-call room when Cristina enters) Cristina: That was the single most amazing surgery I have ever witnessed. You, you klled a man and brought him back to life. You, like, raised the dad. God, how does that feel? Are you rushing? Is it� Burke: Like you wouldn't believe. Cristina: Hey, um, do you still have those reservations? Cause I'm starving. Burke: Cristina, I think there's something we should discuss. Cristina: Yeah. Yeah, there is. Burke: It's pretty clear. Cristina: It is? Burke: We've been fooling ourselves, to think that we can continue like this without consequences. Cristina: Consequences� Burke: We have careers to think about. Reputations. We both put the job first. You are very focused. I respect that. Cristina: Thank you. Burke: You're welcome. Cristina: Oh, you're ending this? Burke: I think it's best to make a clean break. Cristina: Ok. Burke: Before it gets too involved. Before it gets� Cristina: Messy. Right, right. That would be, that would be bad. Burke: It's nothing personal. (Seattle scenes) (Richard's room, George is standing outside the door peeking in) Richard: Get in here, O'Malley. George: Ok. I tried. I really tried. But there's a lot of stuff happening out there. Stuff I can't tell you. Stuff I won't tell you. Crazy stuff. Stuff I'm gonna have nightmares about. But I'm not gonna tell you about any of it. Because it doesn't matter. Not when there's a guy out there who we all know and love who's gonna be bankrupt because he needed a surgery to save his life. And I spent the whole day working on it. Richard: O'Malley� George: Let me finish. Richard: You're wrong, sir. Now you can f*re me, or, you know, bring me up on disciplinary action or whatever. I'm telling you, Joe deserves� Richard: Deserves our help. Couldn't help yourself, could you? Whether or not it'd win you any points, even from me. I signed your request. Give it to Patricia, she'll know what to do with it. Looks like Joe may keep his bar after all. George: Thank you, sir. (George starts to leave) Richard: O'Malley! George: Yes? Richard: Yell at me again, and I'll snap you like a twig. George: Yes, sir. (Julie's room) Addison: See? Just a small scar. Julie: And my babies? Addison: Your babies are doing very well. And Dr. Grey will be back to check on you a little bit later. Julie: Actually, I'd prefer it if Dr. Grey were taken off the case. Addison: Why, is there a problem? Julie: Just reminds me of someone I don't like very much. Someone my husband likes a lot. Particularly in lingerie. You understand. Addison: No, no, I don't understand. Julie: Well, she's sleeping with your husband, right? Addison: Ms. Philips, I lack Dr. Grey's class and patience so, let me set the record straight. My husband didn't cheat on me, I cheated on him. So the wronged woman here, Dr. Grey. So, I think you owe here one hell of an apology. (Meredith and Derek sitting on the porch of his trailer) Derek: One night I parked my car, I unlock my front door, go inside my house, and something 's different. Nothing's different, everything's the same, but yet, still, something's different. And I stand there for a while. And then I know. See, there are moments for me, you know, usually when I'm in the OR, when I just know what's gonna happen next. So I go upstairs. As I'm walking down the hall, I trying to prepare myself for what I'm gonna see when I go into my bedroom. I step on a man's jacket that doesn't belong to me. And everything I think I know�just shifts. Because the jacket that doesn't belong to me is a jacket that I recognize. And what I know now is that when I go into my bedroom, I'm not just gonna see that my wife is cheating on me. I'm gonna see that my wife is cheating on me with Mark, who happened to be my best friend. It's just so pedestrian, common and dirty, and cruel. Mostly just cruel. I left, came out here. Meredith: And you met me. Derek: And I met you. Meredith: Well, what was I to you? The girl you screwed to get over being screwed? Derek: You were like coming up for fresh air. It's like I was drowning and you saved me. That's all I know. Meredith: It's not enough. (She gets into her car and leaves) MVO: The say practice makes perfect. Theory is, the more you think like a surgeon, the more you become one. (Burke is in the on-call room alone) (Derek is pacing the porch of his trailer, drinking his beer and looking upset) MVO: The better you get at remaining neutral, clinical. (Derek goes inside the trailer and paces some more. He goes back to the porch, slamming the door) MVO: Cut, suture, close. (Izzie watches Alex take a chair and sit with Joe) MVO: And the harder it becomes to turn it off� Joe: Thought I might see your ugly mug in here tonight. Did you hear the good news? MVO: �to stop thinking like a surgeon. (George walks by) Alex: O'Malley! (George stops, turns to look at Izzie, who shrugs her shoulders, then heads back towards Alex) Alex: I heard what you did, champ. (Alex hugs George) MVO: And remember what it means to think like a human being. (Cristina enters Joe's Bar and sits down next to Meredith) Cristina: The clinic has a policy. They wouldn't let me confirm my appointment unless I designated an emergency contact person. Someone to be there, just in case, and to help me home, you know, after. Anyway, I put your name down. That's why I told you I'm pregnant. You're my "person." Meredith: I am? Cristina: Yeah, you are. Whatever. Meredith: Whatever. Cristina: He dumped me. (Meredith lays her head on Cristina's shoulder and put her arm around her) Cristina: You realize this constitutes hugging? Meredith: Shut up. I'm your "person."	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x01 - Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x02: Enough Is Enough (No More Tears) Original Airdate: 10/2/2005 Written by: James D. Parriott Directed by: Peter Horton MVO: I have an aunt who, whenever she poured anything for you, would say, "Say when." (Meredith is lying on the bathroom floor) Meredith: It's not us. It's them. Them and their stupid boy penises. They didn't tell me they had a wife. They gave absolutely no warning that they were going to break up with you. (Cristina opens the shower door, where she is lying completely dressed) Cristina: It's not that Burke broke up with me. It's how he broke up with me. Like it was business. Like it was a business trans� like he's the boss of me! Meredith: He is the boss of you. Cristina: And what's worse is that I care. Meredith: I'm gonna throw up again. (Cristina closes the shower door) MVO: My aunt would say, "Say when," and of course we never did. (Meredith looks like she's going to throw up) Meredith: No. Wait. False alarm. (Cristina opens the shower door) Cristina: Look, the problem is estrogen. Meredith: No, the problem is tequila. Cristina: I used to be all business, and then he goes and gets me pregnant. Meredith: With the stupid boy penis. Cristina: Now, I'm having hormone surges. He ruined me. I'm ruined. He turned me into this fat, stupid, pregnant girl. Who cares! Estrogen! (She slides the shower door shut again) Meredith: Penises. Penises Izzie. (The bathroom door opens and Izzie and George walk in. George to brush his teeth and Izzie with a bottle of water. The shower door is open again) Cristina: Estrogen George. George: Okay. (To Izzie) What did I miss? (Izzie pours some water into a glass that Cristina is holding out) Izzie: I came home to full on vomit drama. Apparently she dumped Derek and her � (sounds scandalized) she's been sleeping with Burke! George: I knew that. MVO: We don't say "when" because there's something about the possibility of more. (Izzie gives George a look and George turns to face Meredith) George: So you really broke up with Shepherd? (He starts brushing his teeth) Meredith: I feel empty. Izzie: Two hours of vomiting will do that to you. (Both Izzie and George are now brushing their teeth looking at Meredith) MVO: More tequila. More love. More anything. More is better. Meredith: (To herself) No, I feel empty. Cristina: You're lucky. I feel pissed off. (She slides the door shut) (SGH Parking lot) (Meredith slams the door of her car. George, Cristina and Izzie get out slowly after her. Derek is waiting for her.) Meredith: Stop. Derek: What? Meredith: You're stalking me. Stop it. Derek: Did we not communicate last night? Meredith: Yes. Derek: Did you hear what I was saying? Meredith: Your wife screwed your best friend. Derek: And then from that point on she no longer existed to me anymore. Meredith: You had marital amnesia? Derek: No. Come on I bared my soul to you last night. Meredith: It's not enough. Derek: How can that be not enough? Meredith: When you waited 2 months to tell me and I had to find out by her showing up, all leggy and fabulous and telling me herself, you pulled the plug. I'm a sink with an open drain. Anything that you say runs right out. There is no enough. (Meredith goes inside, George and Izzie follow) George: She probably could've picked a better metaphor. Izzie: Give her a break. She's got a hangover. (Burke is inside and spots Derek entering) Burke: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Dr. Burke. Burke: Ah, we have an organ donor coming in this afternoon from Wilkeson General. We're doing a harvest. Derek: Commendable, but� (The interns look on while waiting for an elevator) Burke: In OR one at four. Derek: I'm in OR one at four. Burke: Your surgery is non-critical� Derek: You can't bump me! Burke: � you'll be first up tomorrow. As Chief I can. Derek: Interim chief. Bump somebody else! Burke: You're in the OR we need. Derek: Why don't they do the harvest at Wilkeson? Burke: Small facility in the boonies. A duck in a box. We have the location, the airport nearby and the staff. Your surgery is rescheduled. (Elevator opens and the interns get in) Cristina: "Mine's bigger than yours." (Alex enters the elevator before it closes) Alex: Whip it out. I'll measure. Cristina: Shut up, Alex. (Burke and Cristina exchange glances as the elevator doors close) (Bailey and her interns in the ambulance bay) Medic: Male, 55, victim of a head-on collision. GCS is 3. Depressed skull fracture. Multiple internal injuries. ACLS protocol started, but was vein blew so we've been pushing meds down the tube. PEA on arrival. Bailey: How long has he been down? Medic: We've been doing CPR for about 20 minutes. It took fre 20 minutes to get him out of the car. He's pretty much gone. Bailey: Uh, he's not gone until we say he's gone. Keep coding. (Enter the hospital) Bailey: O'Malley, get him into a bay and save him. George: But he's dad. (Another ambulance approaches, Alex, Cristina & Izzie make their way over to it) Bailey: Did you not hear me? He's not dad until we say he's dad. You know what to do so do it. (George stands there) Uh, Grey, you're on this too. Move. (Meredith enters the hospital and leaves George still standing there) Medic 2: We've got three more victims from the other car people coming in. Let's move people! Meredith: Come on (George follows Meredith) George: But he's dad. (In the trauma room, George is preparing to shock the already dad patient.) George: Olivia. (To other doctors) Pulseless V-Tach. Meredith: Line's in. George: Okay, charge to 200. Olivia: 200. George: Clear. (Shocks the body) Meredith: Push 1 of epi. Let's go again. Charge to 300. George: Seriously? Olivia: I think that's what Dr. Bailey wants you to do, George. Dr. O'Malley. Meredith: It's what she wants, Dr. O'Malley. George: Okay then. Let's charge to 300. Olivia: 300. George: Clear. (Ambulance bay) Medic 3: Male, 46, unrestrained driver of the car that jumped lanes. BP 80 over palp. Tachycardic. Last pulse 1:38. Got two liters of LR running wide open. Significant abdominal tenderness. Bailey: Any history? Medic 3: Uh, wife says he's got a bad liver. He's one the, ah transplant list. Bailey: Abdomen's rigid. Okay hand's off. We need to page Burke and Domner. Prep this guy for the O.R. Who wants him? Izzie: I do! Alex: I do. Cristina: I do, I do. Bailey: Uh, too late. Stevens, take it. Izzie: Yes. (Izzie joins them) Bailey: Karev, take the boy. (Another gurney enters and Alex joins them) Bailey: Yang, you take the mom. (Cristina joins the next gurney) Bailey: I want to be looking at their films in 15 minutes! (Doctor nearby hands Bailey a chart) Doctor: We've got one more for you. (Points at the ER) Bailey: What? In there? Oh, ok. (Bailey enters the ER) Bailey: What is it? Doctor: That guy. (Points to Mr. Hubble) Bailey: He was in the accident? Doctor: No. Bowel obstruction. He's not telling us what he ingested but the films look like he's packing. Bailey: Can't people figure out a better way to move drugs? (Bailey enters George's trauma room) Bailey: Grey! (She sees what George is doing) Oh pericardiocentesis. Good. Any response? George: Mm mmm. Bailey: Okay, uh, all right you guys can � George: Should I call it? Bailey: What would you do next, O'Malley? George: I would call it. Bailey: To save him. George: Oh� uh� I don't know. A pericardial window. Bailey: Excellent. Do it. (She gestures to Meredith) Grey, you're down here. I've got a bowel obstruction for you. Meredith: Fun. George: Well, at least your patient is still alive. (Meredith and Bailey leave, George and Olivia are alone with the patient) Olivia: What next doctor? (George looks at her, not at all pleased) (Richard's room. Derek is trying to check Richard out be he keeps moving) Derek: Ok, stop it. Richard: Okay. Stop. That's it. Derek: That is not it. Richard: Come on, please, stop it. That's it. Derek: That is not it Richard. Hold still. Richard: How can I hold still when you're poking me? Derek: I have to poke you to discharge you. (A woman enters) Adele: What makes you think he wants to be discharged? (Richard looks up shocked) Derek, don't you know that this hospital will crumble unless Richard's here holding up the walls? Richard: Adele, you're supposed to be in the Virgin Islands. Adele: Oh you are in 5 kinds of trouble Mr. Man. (She walks up to him and gives a kiss on the cheek) You had brain surgery and didn't tell me? Richard: It was just a small procedure. Adele: It was brain surgery! Richard: I didn't want to ruin your vacation. Adele: You don't know what a vacation is. How would you know how to ruin it? Richard: Well anyway � (he stops and gives her a look) How did you find � (he stops and then gives Derek a big old glare) You called my wife? (Derek looks up from the chart he was writing in startled) Derek: You called mine. (Richard is silent) Look having someone home with you is the only way I'm letting you out of here today. Richard: Fine. (Addison enters) Addison: I thought I saw a fabulous looking woman walk by. Adele: Addison! Yes see (She walks up and they hug) I told Richard, I knew you and Derek would get back together. Addison: Ah, actually, I'm here on a case. Derek: Addison and I are over, Adele. Addison: It's not like we're divorced. Derek: Practically divorced. Adele: You've had counseling? Derek: We had adultery. That was enough. Adele: Hmm. Addison: I'll call you later, ok? (Addison leaves and Adele walks over to Derek) Adele: You should give her a chance, Derek. Derek: It's good to see you. (He gives a kiss on the cheek) Keep him in line. (Derek leaves) (Scott, one of the accident victims is getting ready for x-rays, Alex is nearby) Scott: My mom's ok, right? Alex: Yeah, yeah, I think so. Scott: They'd been fighting at breakfast. Dad � it's ugly when it gets like that. He ran three stop lights before we even got on the freeway. (Lea, another of the accident victims is getting checked out by Cristina) Lea: My husband Bob's a, a really good driver. (Scene switches back and forth between Lea and Scott) Scott: Some guy in a pick up cuts us off. Lea: Safe. I uh think he saw something in the middle of the road and � Scott: And my Dad just lost it. Lea: � and swerved to avoid it. Scott: He started chasing the guy � Lea: The crash just, just came out of nowhere. Scott: � blasting through traffic � Lea: We'd been having a really nice morning. One minute everything's fine and the next � Scott: � screaming at him. Lea: I see a guy's face before we ht. Scott: The next thing I know, we're upside down on the other side of the freeway. Lea: Do the surgeon's know that Bob has a bad liver? Cristina: They know. Lea: How's Scotty? Cristina: Your son's in the next room getting x-rayed. Scott: My dad, he� Alex: He's in surgery. It's pretty serious. Scott: Yeah? Well. I guess the son of bitch got what he deserved. (Alex stares at him) (Mr. Siebert's OR) Dr. Domner: What makes people think they don't need seatbelts? Burke: My end is done. Dr. Domner: Well, the bowel's a mess, but it's repairable. It's a lot of work, I don't see the point with this liver. Burke: What do you see, Dr. Stevens? Izzie: A deep laceration, bleeding. Burke: What else? Izzie: It's hard and pale. Cirrhotic. They said he's on the transplant list. Burke: Does he have family here, Stevens? Izzie: A wife and son. (Lea and Cristina's room) Cristina: Okay, I'm just gonna roll you over. Gently. (Rolls her and notices a large bruise on her back) Cristina: Oh. This looks pretty bad. How did you get this? Lea: Well, we ht so hard � Cristina: I don't think this is from the collision. It looks a couple of weeks old. (Lea doesn't answer) (Bailey enters George's room) Bailey: Where are you? George: I can see his heart. His heart that's not beating. Bailey: Okay, ah open the pericardium and aspirate. If the heart is still not beating close and call it. (George looks upset) What? You think we're defiling this man's body? George: Well, well we're certainly doing more than� Bailey: � than what? (George looks resigned) If they're dad or dying when they come through those doors you hump and hump hard. Why? George: For the experience. Bailey: Uh, no what else? There's something more. (George doesn't have an answer) You think on that. It'll come to you. (Bailey leaves the room) (Meredith wheels Mr. Hubble to the elevator) Meredith: You know, Mr. Hubble, you might make things easier on yourself if you just tell us what you've ingested. We'll know anyway, once we see your films. Mr. Hubble: You have the most beautiful features. They're delicate. Almost porcelain. Meredith: Mr. Hubble, whatever you've ingested could kll you. Are you sure you don't want to tell me what's got you blocked up inside? Mr. Hubble: It ah might offend you. Meredith: Is it drugs? Mr. Hubble: It's not drugs. Meredith: Mr. Hubble� Mr. Hubble: I promise. It's not drugs. (Elevator opens) Meredith: Okay. Well, Good. I'm glad it's not drugs. (Meredith is receiving Mr. Hubble's films) Radiologist: Its drugs. Looks like at least 10 balloons in his bowel. (Meredith holds up the film in the light to see for herself) My guess, cocaine. (Bailey is looking at x-ray films with Alex and Cristina) Alex: Scott Seibert,18. No fractures or internal bleeding. Got pretty lucky. Bailey: Recommendation? Alex: Keep overnight for observation. (Cristina puts up her x-ray film and switches on the light screen) Bailey: Damn! Cristina: Lea Seibert, 43. Multiple healed fractures on her clavicle and humerus. Third and fourth rib. Bailey: She's either a bull rider or she's abused. Alex: Kid said the accident was road rage. His old man got cut off in traffic, went ballistic. Cristina: Oh, that's not the story I got. (She puts up another x-ray) She has a large yellowing bruise over her right kidney. Tender to palpitation. Said she got it from a fall last week (Bailey scoffs). She's bleeding. Bailey: Perinephric hematoma. What do you do? Cristina: It should take care of itself. We'll keep an eye on it. She needs ah bed rest and a shrink. (Meredith walks in with her films of Mr. Hubble) Meredith: It's drugs. Bailey: Stupid. (she takes the x-ray film and puts it up on all already lit screen) Stupid, stupid. One burst and he's dad in 5 minutes. Okay what do we do? Meredith: Run his bowel. Bailey: And what does that mean? Yang? Cristina: Ah running the bowel entails removing all 36 feet of the intestine from the body cavity, hand searching for the balloons and then cutting them out. Bailey: Grey, book an O.R. Yang, Karev you're in. I need all the hands I can get. (Bailey, Meredith and Cristina start to leave but Alex continues to stare at the x-ray. He walks up closer to it) Alex: Are you sure they're balloons? (They stop at the door and Bailey walks back) Bailey: You have reason to believe they're not balloons? (Alex points to the screen as Meredith and Cristina walk back in as well) Alex: This one here's has got a face. (Bailey dims the light on screen a bit. The balloons take on more face like structures) Meredith: So does that one. (They all look dumfounded) Cristina: They all do. Bailey: I'll be damned. They're Judys. Cristina: Judys? Bailey: Huh. He swallowed the heads of 10 Judy dolls. (The camera closes up on a doll face on the x-ray) Cristina: Ew. (Seattle Scenes) (Nurse's station) (Cristina is sitting on a chair at the nurse's station. Alex is standing looking over a chart at the desk while Meredith is putting a file away) Cristina: My mother used to buy me Judy dolls. Manhattan Judy, Surfer Judy, Disco Judy. Meredith: I always wanted one. Cristina: I dissected them. Cut of their arms, shaved their heads. (Mr. Hubble is getting ready for his operation) Alex: Sounds like there's a sick and twisted story behind this. Cristina: No they're sexist, distorted devil toys (Bailey comes around the corner which Alex notices) that create unrealistic image expectations (Alex waves bye to Cristina & leaves) carrying to the prn driven minds of men. Bailey: You swallow a bitter pill this morning, Yang? (Cristina turns around and then sits up and starts typing on the laptop in front of her) They're dolls. Grey, call for a psych consult. Then see if he has family. Meredith: Do I still book the OR? Bailey: Blocked bowels become necrotic bowels. Check with Dr. Burke. See if we can bump someone. Those Judys' gotta come out today. (Mr. Siebert's OR) Nurse: Hanging another B neg. Dr. Domner: He's going through a lot of blood. Nurse: Noted. Burke: What's the word from UNOS? Izzie: He's on the list, but they don't have a liver for him. Dr. Domner: The list won't help him now. We can work all day but this liver won't stop bleeding. And it won't support his recovery from surgery. Izzie: What about the donor from Wilkeson that's coming in? Burke: That liver has already been committed. Mr. Seibert's only hope is a family donor. Dr. Domner: Maybe we should call it? No use in tying up an OR if we're just postponing the inevitable. Burke: How much work do you have here to complete, Dr. Domner? Dr. Domner: 5, maybe 6 hours. Burke: Then that's how much time we have to find him a new liver. Dr. Domner: You're the chief. (George, still trying to revive his patient) George: Any family members waiting? Olivia: Still trying to reach them. George: Good. I mean, not good that we haven't reached them. Good I don't have to ah � Olivia: It's always hard. George: Yeah. Olivia: I'm sorry about Alex. (George squeezes the gn harder) George: That's fine. It's good you know. No need to talk about it. Olivia: You do understand that I had sex with him before you, not during? (George squeezes the gn really hard) Because when you and I were having sex � George: I understand. Olivia: I just wanted to clear the air. George: Oh. It's clear. (Again squeezes the stitch gn really hard) Perfectly clear. Ok. Olivia: Ok. George: Ok. Olivia: And about the syphilis � George: We really don't have to talk about this. Olivia: Which is I mean, I didn't know I had it. I should've, I'm a nurse. I mean there was the sore and I was all itchy. (George squeezes the gn hard again) George: Ok! (He backs away and almost knocks the tray next to him over) You know I uh, uh got it. You know things happen. (He moves to the door far away from Olivia) Olivia: They, they really do. Things you wish you could change. George: Yeah. Oh, it's the Chief. I gotta take this. Olivia: Sure. George? (George leaves eager to get away) Olivia: You have to call it. George: Call it? Olivia: Him. George: Oh, uh (he grabs his pager to check the time) um, time of death 1.48. (He walks out) (Scott and Alex enter an elevator. Scott is punching his gurney) Alex: I got it. (The other doctor leaves and the elevator doors close) Alex: This guy came in this morning with 10 Judy doll heads in his abdomen. Is that some kinda sick or what? I mean, when you think about it, those things can't be that easy to swallow. They've still got their hair on them. That's some bad spaghetti. Dude's crapping toys. (Scott almost smiles but is too upset. Alex sighs) Alex: You know, when you're little you can hide. Ignore the shouting, the screaming, you pretend like you're someplace else. Then when you get older,�bigger,�you feel like you should be doing something. Something to stop it. You know, to protect her. (Scott still hits the side of the bed) And when you can't, you don't know who to be angrier at, Your old man or yourself. Usually it's yourself. Scott: Did she tell you? Alex: She didn't have to. It's all over her films. He's not beating you, is he? Scott: No, just her. So what do you do? About the anger? (Elevator doors open) Alex: Me? I think about the guy who eats doll heads. He's got problems. (As they are leaving the elevator, Izzie runs up) Izzie: Hey, I've been looking for you guys. Scott: It's my father. (Burke is in Lea's room, talking to her about Bob) Lea: Bob liked his beers. His liver started to fail a couple of years ago. He quit drinking and we put him on the transplant list, but his blood type. Burke: B-negative. Lea: There just aren't that many available. They suggested a family member. Burke: Any luck? Lea: My son. They said Scotty is a good match. He's 18� Cristina: Family members shouldn't do it out of obligation. It's a risky operation. (Burke looks at Cristina) Lea: Scotty's had counseling. You know, they just don't let you do it. (Cristina nods) He hasn't made his mind up yet, you know. (Cristina notices Burke staring at her) We actually have a date set for surgery. I just (She cries a little) I just don't�I don't want to pressure him. Cristina: Well, then you shouldn't. Lea: Oh, god�God, I don't want to lose Bob. Burke: We'll give your son as much time as we can to make a decision. Yeah? Lea: Thank � (she continues to cry) (Everyone leaves, Burke stops Cristina in the hallway) Burke: Would you care to explain? Cristina: Seibert is a wife beater. Her films show years of abuse. Burke: I didn't know that but still � Cristina: Multiple fractures. She has a kidney bleed from a beating she took last week. Plus, it was�it was his road rage that caused the accident. The guy in the other car died! Burke: And that means what? No heroic measures? We leave him on the table? Cristina: Well if it were up to me � Burke: Think like a surgeon Dr. Yang! We have a dying patient and a liver that could save him. Cristina: Well this more complicated than that. Burke: No. For social workers, yes! For the family. Not for you. It isn't up to you! (Burke starts to leave) Cristina: Yeah, you've made that perfectly clear. (He hears this and walks back quickly) Burke: Well, I'm glad we have an understanding. Cristina: I'm sure you are. (She walks off in the other direction. Burke walks off as well) (Burke is walking with Patricia) Burke: The donor from Wilkeson? Patricia: Should be here at 3. Harvest team's on their way in. Burke: I also need to touch base with the transplant centre about Seibert getting his son's liver. (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Dr. Burke? (They stop walking) Dr. Bailey needs an OR and they're all booked. Burke: For? Meredith: An emergent bowel obstruction. (She hands him Mr. Hubble's x-ray) Burke: Drugs? Meredith: 10 Judy doll heads. Burke: Seriously? Meredith: Yes. (Patricia looks at the film as well) Patricia: I can see their little faces. (She puts on a voice) Help. Let me out. (Burke pulls down the x-ray film quickly) Burke: Bump Warner's hernia in 1. But don't tell him what we're removing. (He hands Meredith the x-ray film back) Meredith: Thank you. (He and Patricia continue walking and Meredith walks off in the other direction) (Burke enters Richard's office to find Adele there) Adele: If he can't be here obsessing, he wants stuff to obsess with at home. (Patricia walks in) I'll be done and out of your way in a moment. (Patricia hands Burke a piece of paper) Patricia: Intern time cards. Sign. (She waves to Adele, who waves back and leaves the office) Adele: It's always something isn't it? Some emergency surgery, some annoying administrative problem. (Burke looks at her as he signs the time cards on the round table in the room) Being chief is a lot like being an intern. The work never stops. (Burke sits down in Richard's chair) Adele: You know when I found out Richard had a tumor you know what I felt? Relieved. (Burke is looking at the computer screen not really listening) I was hoping he'd finally be forced to retire. (He looks up at Adele at this piece of news, intrigued) Ah. That has your attention doesn't it? How we both would like that to happen. (She grabs her bag) I could finally book a vacation for two. (she chuckles) You know you're perfect for this job, Preston. Unattached, obsessive. This hospital, this job, it's enough for you isn't it? (Adele) (Scott's room) Scott: It has to be today? Izzie: Thanks. (To Scott) He won't make it off the table with his own liver. He's bleeding a lot. Scott: When you get counseling they tell you not to force it. The decision you know. One day, one moment you just know the right thing to do. It should be easy, right? He's my father. Alex: Well it's a tough operation. It'll be a big change in your life. Izzie: The upside is that the liver is the only organ that regenerates itself. (Alex looks annoyed at this) I mean they'll only take half of yours and it'll be back to normal size in 2 months. You probably won't be running any marathons any time soon but � (Alex grabs Izzie's arm and interrupts) Alex: Dr. Stevens, can I see you outside for a moment? (He pulls Izzie outside into the hallway) Izzie: What is your problem? Alex: (angry) You're doing a sales pitch. The recipient is your patient. You shouldn't even be talking to the donor. Izzie (defensive): The recipient is his father who he's going to lose if he doesn't make a decision. Alex (angry): And he understands that alright? Believe me he understands that. You have no idea what is going on in that kid's head! None! (He walks back in to the room leaving Izzie looking perplexed) (George is wheeling Richard out) Richard (to George): Call 3 times a day. Adele: Do not call 3 times a day. Richard: Look and if my wife does not put you through � Adele: I won't put you through. Richard: Keep calling until she does. George: Yes sir. (Adele gives George a look. He shakes his head no at her but Richard doesn't see) (Bailey, Meredith and Raj are dicussing Mr. Hubble) Raj: He's not talking. It could be pica. Doubtful for a man his age. Maybe an Oedipal complex or an idolization of the doll as his partners. (Bailey gives him a weird look) Or it could be that he simply enjoys it. Bailey: Now I've seen a lot of strange things in strange places but how does he enjoy this? (Meredith walks back up to them) Raj: He'd enjoy it when they came out. Bailey: I didn't need to hear that. (Addison walks by) Addison: Dr. Grey, may I speak with you for a moment? (Meredith looks at Bailey who moves to sign the chart Raj is holding out) Bailey: Don't look at me for help. (Meredith walks up to Addison and they walk down the hallway together) Addison: I assumed he told you why he left me. (Meredith looks annoyed at this and stops walking in front of Addison) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd with all do respect, this has nothing to do with me. (Meredith walks off but Addison follows her) Addison: Really? So you didn't take him back. Good girl. Meredith: And in the future I'd appreciate it if we could keep our relationship strictly professional. (Addison stops walking and Meredith continues to walk away. Addison calls out to her and Meredith turns around) Addison: Meredith. � Sometimes people do desperate things to get someone's attention. (Meredith makes a face and walks away) Addison (calls out): There are two sides to every story! (Cut to Cristina, Izzie and George walking in the outdoor caf� with food trays) Cristina: The father is an alcoholic wife beater. I mean there shouldn't even be a question. Izzie: But if you could save somebody and you didn't, wouldn't you feel like you were committing mrder? Cristina: Like the guy did when crashed into George's DOA. He's the kller not the son. (George stops when he sees and empty table with 10 headless Judy dolls sitting all arranged in a circle) George: Oh! That is sick! Izzie: Who would do that? (They look to the table where Alex is sitting, smiling) Cristina: Oh. (she picks up a Judy) Look! See Judy fly. (She throws it at him and he ducks to the side so doesn't ht him) (Olivia walks by with her own tray as they all sit down at the table with the Judys) Olivia: Hey, George. George: Hey. (The interns look at George) George: What? Meredith: George. She was trying to make up with you. You should go eat with her. (George picks up a Judy and starts playing with it) George: No. No, I shouldn't. Izzie: She's cute and she likes you. You shouldn't let a little syph get in the way. George: It's not the syph. Cristina: It's so the syph. George: It's not the syph! Izzie: Then what is it? (George doesn't answer and looks down) Oh. Meredith: What? (George shrugs) What is it? Out with it. Izzie: There's this other girl. George: Izzie! Cristina: Other girl? You have another girl?! Izzie: He hasn't told her yet that he likes her. George: Izzie! We are not in high school. Izzie: George has a little crush. George: I do not have a crush. (Cristina laughs while Meredith looks at George contemplating who is still playing with the Judy doll) George: It is a thing. A thing that is very personal. One day I would like to build on this thing with this other girl. Woman. She's all woman. (Meredith snatches the Judy doll away from George and slams it onto the table) Meredith: What are you doing? George (apologetic) : I was playing with � Meredith (interrupts): No George, with Olivia. (She picks up the doll and starts pointing at George with it) What are you doing with Olivia? George: Oh. Nothing. Meredith: You're letting her think you're emotionally available. You're letting her think she has a chance. (Loudly) And there is nothing worse in the world than thinking you have a chance when you really don't! (She throws down the Judy doll) Cristina: Meredith is right. Tell her there's someone else. Tell her why George. I mean, (she yells) I mean at least give her the chance to have some feelings about for god's sake! George (shocked): Why are you yelling at me? Cristina (loud): Because of the estrogen George! Because of all the estrogen! (She takes a bite of her salad angrily. Meredith looks at George also angry. George looks taken aback by the whole situation. Izzie just tries to smile it off) Izzie: So new subject. (Burke and Derek at the OR board) Derek: It's a mess. Burke: No it isn't. Derek: I think I know a mess when I see a mess. You've got the harvest tying up OR 1. Seibert tying up OR 2. Bowel obstruction in OR 3. Burke: It's simply a bit crowded. Derek: Well, your "crowded" is my "seriously overbooked." And in my book seriously overbooked is a mess. (A scrubs nurse walks up to Burke and Derek) Nurse: They need to know if there's any word on the Seibert liver. Burke: How much time do they have left? Nurse: Couple of hours. Burke: Tell them I'll be in to see them. (The scrubs nurse walks off. Dr. Warner and his staff walk down the hallway up to Burke) Dr. Warner: You bumped me for a bowel obstruction? Derek: Ooh, uneasy lies the head that wears the chief's cap. (Derek walks off) (Meredith and Mr. Hubble are headed to his surgery) Meredith: Was it an act of desperation? Mr. Hubble: Not at all. Meredith: Something to attract attention? Mr. Hubble: Of course not. Meredith: I'm just trying to understand here, Mr. Hubble. Why 10 doll heads? Mr. Hubble: Well because 11 would've been too much. (Mr. Hubble's surgery. All of the interns are there helping) Izzie: I think it's something to do with his mother. Maybe she always wanted a girl and gave him Judy dolls for his birthday presents. George: Ah, ah I've got another one. (He pops up a Judy doll head in the intestine) Meredith: Uh! Bailey: Doyen clamps to Yang. Grey, push the head up to the incision. (Meredith starts squeezing the doll head up through the intestine) Alex: Maybe his mother looked like Judy and he's into voodoo. Instead of sticking pins in... Heh. (They pop a small black doll head with an afro out of the intestine) Bailey: Yep. Ah. (She holds up the doll head with a clamp) Black Judy. What they gave her long hair back when she had the afro. She came with 'go go' boots and a leather jacket. (She puts the doll head into a large silver basin) Shame it's a real collector's item. Alex: Collectable dolls with a twist. Cristina: Seriously, you can identify these dolls by their heads? Bailey: You got a problem with that Yang? I like Judy dolls. I own Judy dolls. The only problem I have with Judy dolls that are in the bowel of this man. (Burke walks into the O.R) Burke: Bailey, I need an intern in the ER to meet the harvest donor. Bailey (she looks at George): O'Malley. Cristina (to George): See ya, boo-boo. (George leaves the operating table) Burke: You good here? Bailey: Couple more heads to go. Burke: Then Karev, Yang, Stevens scrub out. I need to get an answer from Seibert's son. (Cristina and Burke share a look. He leaves the O.R and they all start scrubbing out. Bailey removes another Judy doll head) Bailey: Ah yes. Mod Judy. Came with a yellow vesper. You know what's strange? Meredith: We haven't had enough strange? Bailey: She looks a little like you. (Meredith doesn't respond to that. Bailey dumps the doll head into the silver basin) (Cut to Olivia opening the doors of a patient room. George is a few feet behind her with a chart and is being followed by a nurse and 2 doctors wheeling a man on a hospital bed) Nurse: This is the donor from Wilkeson General. George: Just put her in here (he gestures to where Olivia is) until the ah harvest team comes done. Thanks. (They wheel her into the room) George: Well this, this one's heart is still beating. (They all leave except for George and Olivia. Olivia shuts one of the doors to the room. She and George share a look) George: I think Bailey would want me to ah � (George starts checking the patient and Olivia walks to the other side of the bed and puts on the monitor) Olivia: We finally reached the family members of the dad motorist. Live in Portland. Should be here in a few hours. Want me to page you when they get here? George: Yeah. Do they know? (She walks behind George) Olivia: Only that we were still working on him. (She clicks on a switch) I think it's always better to hear bad news firsthand. (George gets a look on his face) I know I'd like to talk to the doctor who called it. (She speaks quietly) Get some answers. (Normal voice) So I could get on with my life. George (tries to ignore this): Ah. Olivia: George. (He presses down on the patient's sternum and the patient reflex's her whole body upwards off the bed) George: Did you? Did you see that? (He does it again) George: She's decerebrate. Her brain's, her brain's stem is still alive. (The transplant team has come to the room and opens the wide door/wall Olivia closed. Dr. Orsen, the doc in charge with several other doc's come in) Dr. Orsen: Okay, we'll take it from here. George: But, would you look at this? (He pushes down on the patient again who reflex's up again) Dr. Orsen: She's decerebrate. (to the other doctors) Okay. George: Yeah but she can't really be declared brain dad. (They start wheeling the patient out) Dr. Orsen: It's a small reaction. They probably just missed it. The cortex is dad. The brain stem will follow. (The team start wheeling the patient down a hallway) Death is imminent we just have to wait it out. (George looks shocked and confused by this as Dr. Orsen follows the team) George: Yeah, but don't you � Dr. Orsen (interrupt): She'll be dad by the time we get to the O.R doctor. (The team walk off) George (to himself): But she's alive now. (Alex enters Scott's room with a wheelchair) Alex: It smells like a hospital in here. (Bob's OR) Dr. Domner: What are we doing with this guy Preston? Is this just an exercise? I don't need the practice. Burke: Transplant committee gave us the green light. Trying to get an answer from the son. Dr. Domner: Well this guy goes through his liver like there's no tomorrow. And I mean that literally. Burke: How much work do you have left now? Dr. Domner: Maybe an hour and a half. But without a liver I don't think this guy is going to last that long. (Burke just looks at Mr. Seibert) (Cut to Mrs. Seibert lying on her side in her patient room. Cristina checking her back) Lea: I need to speak to Scotty. I can talk to him. I need to talk to him. (Cristina is done and Mrs. Seibert rolls on to her back) Cristina (avoids eye contact): I think they want him to make the decision on his own. Lea: You think I'm sick for wanting me to save my husband. Don't you? Cristina: I think � you're feeling very emotional and when we're feeling emotional sometimes it's, sometimes it's hard to keep a level head and consider all the facts. �. Your husband klled a man on the highway today. He almost klled you and your son. Those are the facts. Lea: Have you ever been in love Doctor? (Cristina looks at her) Have you? Cristina: Love has its limits. (Cristina walks out while Mrs. Seibert shakes her head) (Cut to Derek walking down a hall eating a snack. George comes racing after him) George: Dr. Shepherd! (Derek stops and turns to meet him) Derek (chewing): Dr. O'Malley. George: I was just in the ICU with harvest donor and ah Dr. Bailey, she has us do exams and procedures on patients even if they're � Derek (interrupts): Whatch you find? George: Ah, she's decerebrate. The donor, her brainstem is still alive. (Cut to Derek and George walking quickly down the O.R hallway. They come up to the transplant team with the donor) Derek: Excuse me, Derek Shepherd. Head of Neurosurgery. Do you mind if I take a look? (He starts checking the patient) Dr. Orsen (looks like he can't believe this is happening): Ah, okay, yeah she's ah still fostering. We have every intention of waiting until she's dad. She's in an irreversible coma. (Derek pushes on the patient's sternum who reflex's up again) Dr. Orsen: Hines, the neuro at Wilkeson ran the protocol. Derek: They missed decerebration. What else did they miss? (He grabs the donor's chart and flips through it) She has a tumor, ah on her brain stem right? I don't see the M.R.I. Did you do an EEG to confirm brain dad? (Dr. Orsen shrugs his shoulder annoyed that this is even happening) Dr. Orsen: Yeah, according to Hines. Derek: I don't know a Dr. Hines. (Meredith standing at the nurse's station looks up and watches the situation from afar) Dr. Orsen: We have 6 patients in 3 states waiting for this woman's organs. Derek: Yeah and I'm sure they'll all be happy to know that the organs that they'll be receiving are from somebody that's actually brain dad. (Burke walks out of the Seibert's O.R and notices the heated battle between the 2 doctors and makes his way over) Dr. Orsen: No one's going to touch her while she's alive. For you to imply otherwise � Burke (interrupts): Is there a problem here? Dr. Orsen? Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Yeah we have a donor who's still decerebrate. (Cristina rounds the corner and also notices the situation and watches) Derek: I want to do an EEG and a M.R.I. Dr. Orsen: An expensive waste of time. (Burke flips through the donor's chart) Derek: I insist on it. (Burke gives Shepherd a weird look) Burke: You insist on it? Derek: I do. (Cristina and Meredith make eye contact and Meredith raises her eyebrows to say another pissing contest) Burke: If my head of neurosurgery says he needs an EEG and an M.R.I, (he hands the chart over to Derek) then he needs an EEG and an M.R.I. Dr. Orsen: You realize we have 6 patients waiting? Burke: That is not my call Dr. Orsen. Who gets the organs is up to UNOS. Who donates the organs is up to the families. Hell I've got in the O.R that's waiting for a liver that may not deserved to be saved and again that's not my call. But you want to know what my call is? Everything else. (He turns to Derek) The patient is yours Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Thank you Dr. Burke. (Dr. Orsen shakes his head and storms off. Most of the transplant team leaves as well. Shepherd and some other doctors start wheeling the patient down the hall) Derek: Dr. O'Malley do you want to assist with this M.R.I? (George follows Dr. Shepherd. Burke is left standing there and notices Cristina watching. The camera switches to Shepherd who notices Meredith watching from the nurse's station) Derek (To a doctor): Carry this for me. First we'll do an EEG. George, you with me? (Walkway outside of SGH) (Izzie rushes outside looking for somebody and notices them. Alex is taking Scott for a walk) Scott: What if he goes back to hitting her? Alex: You can't make that call. Whatever you do you can't make the decision on anger. (Izzie runs down the pathway behind them) Izzie (calls out): Alex! Scott: So what do you with it? What did you with yours? Izzie (calls out again louder): Alex! (Alex pushing the wheelchair and turns around as Izzie runs up to them and stops a few feet away) Izzie: Hey. You shouldn't be out here. Dr. Burke needs a � Alex (interrupts): Can you just back off? Please? (Izzie sighs and walks to the side. Alex squats down next to Scott) Alex: My anger had a life of its own. I bulked up, became a wrestler and the next time he laid a hand on my mother I bat the living crap out of him. When he got out of the hospital he took off. Just took off and never came back. He was a cold mean tempered bastard, but he was still my old man you know? (Scott nods) But now, now I can't stop wishing that I never laid a hand on him. Wish somehow that I could've worked it through. (They walk back towards Izzie) Alex: What is it? Izzie: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt you, I � Alex (interrupts): What? What does Burke want? Izzie: I'm sorry Scott. He needs a decision now. (Lea's room) Lea (to Dr. Burke): When would it happen? Burke (walks over to the bed): We would take Scott to pre-op immediately. The transplant surgeon is on call and waiting. There isn't much time. Lea: Scotty. Scotty. Scott: Yeah, okay. (Mrs. Seibert tilts her head back in relief) I want to do it. Lea (whispers): Oh thank you. Burke (heads to the door): Let's get him to pre-op. I'll call the sur � Scott (interrupts, staring at his mother): I have a couple of conditions. Scott: You're gonna tell the cops the truth about what happened in this accident mom. And as soon as we get back home you and I are moving out. Enough is enough. Burke walks out of the room. Cristina, Izzie and Alex follow slowly one by one[/i]) (Nurse's station) Burke: 18 year old, liver donor, no malignancy or transmittable diseases, ETA about 10 minutes. Cristina: You know she's just gonna go back to him? Burke: Well I don't know that. It's not my � Cristina (interrupts, softly): It's not our call. Burke: Well, Cristina �Uh � I was wondering uh, I mean ah I was hoping that we can ah � I know we didn't � Cristina (interrupts softly): You're asking me � Burke: Are you okay? Cristina: Can I scrub in? (He takes a breath and nods slightly) Cristina: Then yes Dr. Burke, I'm okay. (She walks off. Burke walks away from the nurse's station as well) Burke: Karev, let's get him to pre-op. (Cut to George and Derek in the MRI viewing room as the donor patient lies in the MRI machine. They're looking at images of her brain) Derek (points at the screen): You see the tumor on her brain stem right here? George: It looks pretty bad. Derek: You ever had a crappy day O'Malley? I mean really, really crappy? George: I have had many crappy days. Derek: This one just got better. (To Dr. Orsen in the doorway) You might as well go home gentleman. I will be the only one of us performing surgery here today. My friend here has a viable brain. Dr. Orsen (nods, difficulty): Okay. (He walks off) Doctor: That's it then. Doctor: Yep. (The rest of the transplant team head off) George: Do you really think she'll be okay? Derek: With the tumor out she's got a good sht of recovery. (He smiles at George and gets up and walks to the doorway) Derek: Look out for her. (George looks up and realizes he's talking about Meredith) George: Meredith? Derek: Yeah. (Derek walks away) (George runs into Olivia in the hallway) Olivia: Oh, um � (She gestures to a waiting through a window where a family sits waiting) George: Is it the family of the dad guy? Olivia (nods): Yeah. George: Look, maybe I'm not over the Alex thing or the syph thing, yet. That, that's not really the problem. � �. (Olivia looks slightly pained) There's a girl who I uh, and it doesn't matter there's this other guy and frankly I wouldn't care if she gave me the Ebola virus. (Olivia smiles briefly) I like you Olivia, I but � I just don't like you enough. Olivia (nods forcing a smile): I gave it a sht, right? (George slightly huffs. In a more serious tone) And you were honest. That's good. (George kisses her forehead) Olivia: You know what you're going to tell them? (George stops and walks slightly back towards Olivia. He looks at the family again) George: Why do we hump on every d*ad or dying patient that comes through those doors? Olivia: Experience? George: So we can tell their family that we did everything we could. (He walks into the waiting room as Olivia watches on through the window) George: Are you Ted's family? (Cut to Derek standing in an empty elevator entering something into his mobile phone. Addison walks into the elevator dressed to go home) Derek: Just when the day was improving. Addison: You told Meredith what happened? (He puts the phone away and walks over to the other side to push an elevator button) Derek (he gives her a weird look): I did. What did you tell her? (The doors to the elevator shut) Addison: That sometimes people do desperate things to attract attention. Derek (disbelieving): What? Wow. That's your side of this? That I didn't pay you enough attention. Is that you were thinking when you got naked with my best friend? (Addison reaches over and hits an elevator button as well) Addison: No, by that point I wasn't thinking at all Derek. By that point I was just scratching an itch. We got successful you and me. We got busy and we got lazy. We didn't even bother to fight any more Derek. And Mark was there and I missed you. And now I'm sorry. (Derek pushes his floor button again) I'm more sorry than you can possibly imagine. But at least I'm talking to you about it. (The doors open and Derek heads out) Addison (imploringly): Derek. Derek: I'm a sink with an open drain honey. (He leaves Addison looking confused) (Mr. Hubble, post surgery) Mr. Hubble: Did you get them all? Meredith: Yes. It wasn't easy. Or very pleasant. How do you feel? Mr. Hubble: Empty. I feel empty now. Meredith: Yeah. I've been feeling a little bit of that myself lately. Mr. Hubble: I can see that. Meredith: Mr. Hubble, why does eating doll heads fill you up? What's the satisfaction? Mr. Hubble: Do you really want to know? Meredith: Would it be too much information? Mr. Hubble (half shrugs): Might. Meredith: Maybe I'm better left in the dark. (She leaves) MVO: There's something to be said about a glass half full. (Cut to Burke walking down a hallway, past Scott's post-op room where Alex sits at his bedside. Izzie is there talking to a nurse) MVO: About knowing when to say when. (Burke is in the hallway in front of the OR. board. Dr. Domner walks by and gives Burke a pat on the arm. Burke smiles and lets out a breath of air) MVO: I think it's a floating line. A barometer of need and desire. (Burke watches as a scrubs nurse wipes of some surgeries written on the OR board and starts writing on new ones) MVO: It's entirely up to the individual. (Burke is walking up to the doorway of Mrs. Seibert's room. Mrs. Seibert who is actually looking more bruised and battered than before sits up. The camera shows 2 police officers in there with notepads) MVO: And depends on what's being poured. (Burke walks past one of the OR's. Bailey holding a plastic bag filled with 10 Judy doll heads. She shakes her head in displeasure of it all and throws it in the waste bin) (Burke is smiling walking down a hall. He stops when sees Cristina a few feet away. She stops walking as she's about to enter a room. They make eye contact and stare at each other for a bit.) MVO: Sometimes all we want is a taste. (Cristina breaks and walks into the room. Burke turns and continues walking) MVO: Other times, there's no such thing as enough. The glass is bottomless. (Derek is operating on the donor transplant patient in an OR. George stands very close next to him observing. In the gallery, Dr. Burke is standing watching the procedure. He moves and leaves the room. As he moves he reveals Meredith standing there watching as well) MVO: And all we want is more. (Derek operating and then back to Meredith watching him)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x02 - Enough is Enough"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x03: Make Me Lose Control Original Airdate: 10/9/2005 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Adam Davidson (Meredith and Cristina are jogging in the park) Cristina: Uh...Uh. (Meredith jogs back to her. Christina starts jogging again.) Cristina: Oh you're stupid. Oh God. You're stupid, evil, sadist and I wanna kll you. Meredith: Endorphins are good. Endorphins are mood elevators. This is supposed to make us feel better. Cristina: Oh god. Do you feel better? (Christina stops jogging to catch her breath, while Meredith jogs around her in circles) Meredith: I'm stupid. Cristina: Slutty mistress. Meredith: Pregnant whore. Cristina: Sleeping with our bosses was a great idea. (Meredith stops to catch her breath too) Meredith: You know what's ruined for me? Cristina (in pain): Ah? Meredith: Ferry boats. I used to love ferry boats and Derek's got a thing for ferry boats. Now every time I see a frigging ferry boat... Cristina (cuts off Meredith): You know what's ruined for me? Coronary artery by-pass grafts ... and aortic aneurysms. God I used to love aortic aneurysms. (Both lie down on the grass trying to catch their breaths.) MVO: Surgeons are control freaks. With a scalpel in your hand, you feel unstoppable. There's no fear, there's no pain. Meredith: Have you cried yet? Cristina: Hello? MVO: You're 10 feet tall and bllet proof. Cristina: Do you think we'll feel better if we cry? You know like just let it out? Meredith: Probably. Yeah. MVO: And then you leave the O.R. Cristina (unsure): Do you wanna cry now? Meredith: No. Cristina: Okay, lets, lets jog. MVO: And all that perfection. All that beautiful control just falls to crap. (Locker room) (Alex and Izzie are laughing together while the others stare on in awe) Cristina: What is she doing? George (unsure): She's hanging out with Alex. Cristina: Why? George (losing voice): I dunno. I think ... ... I think they might be friends. (Izzie & Alex continue laughing and joking with each other). George (whispers): Make the lambs stop screaming. (All walking in a hallway) Izzie: You guys are wrong about him, alright? Once you get to know him, he's really sweet. George: He's Alex. Cristina: Punk ass. Alex (calls back loudly): Hey Grey. Izzie was telling me you have tapes of your mom performing surgery. I'd kll to see the Ellis Grey in action. Izzie (calls back): Hey you know what? Maybe you can come over tonight and we can all watch it together? Right? (Meredith, Christina & George look at Izzie disbelievingly) Meredith: Oh yeah, if this were a hell dimension. Cristina: Yeah, run away pig boy. (George stops in front of Izzie) George: Do you have a thing for Alex? Izzie: No. Cristina (groans): Oh. Izzie: I don't. Cristina: Oh! Bailey: Are we saving lives or having a tea party? Walk faster people. (Derek is entering an elevator. Richard enters at the last second wearing an almost 'pimp' looking hat.) Richard: Ah hem. Derek: Nice hat. Richard: Shut up. Derek: What are you doing here? Richard: I'm going back to work. Derek: You're not cleared for surgery. Richard: Leave me alone. I've been sitting home for a week watching Oprah giving away things on TV. (stresses) Oprah, Derek! ... You clear me now or I'll hurt you. Derek: If you want me to clear you so soon, maybe you should've thought about that before you gave chief to Burke and invited Satan to Seattle. (Elevator opens and Addison enters) Richard: Satan? Addison : Good morning. Richard, like the hat. Derek: Satan speaks. Addison: Actually I prefer to be called ruler of all that is evil. (Richard laughs). But I will answer to Satan. Derek: What is she still doing here? Richard: I asked her to stay. We have a pediatric surgery attending on maternity leave. Addison (to Derek): Actually I could use you on a consult. Will you ah meet me up there Derek? Derek: Ah yeah. Fine ( Addison leaves the elevator) Derek: I'm not clearing you for surgery. Richard: Fine, I can catch up on my paperwork. (Richard leaves the elevator as well as doors shut. Derek laughs.) (Mr. Gaston's room. Dr. Bailey's group is surrounding his bed side with Dr. Burke) Cristina: Mr. Gaston is scheduled for resection non-small cell carcinoma today. He did well overnight, has remained afebrile. He's had a dose of ceftriaxone this morning. He's pre-op labs are unremarkable. His chest x-rays, um, are unchanged from the previous. Mr. Gaston: I own a couple of dry-cleaning stores. Never believed what they said about inhaling the chemicals, but... Burke: We're going to do everything we can for you, Mr. Gaston. (To Christina) Did Oncology see him yet? Cristina: Uh, they're waiting for the surgical path. Burke: Thank you, Dr. Yang. Cristina: You're welcome, Dr. Burke. (Bailey, Meredith and Cristina walking through the hall) Meredith: I know. I just think you should still tell him about the baby because he'd at least have the responsibility of having to pay. Cristina: No! You know what? He'll never know. It's over. Once this pregnancy is taken care of, Burke won't even be a blip on my radar. He'll be smudge. Meredith (sarcastic): Right. Cristina: You know, Meredith? ... Leave the sarcasm up to me ... Really, it doesn't suit you. (Kelly Roche's room. Dr. Bailey's group is now gathered here. Christina is looking through a medical book) Alex: Kelly Roche. She's 23 years old. In for a scheduled ETS for treatment of her erythrophobia hyperpyrexia. Izzie (whispers to Christina): Erythrophobia? Cristina: Blushing. Bailey (to Kelly): You have any questions about the procedure? Kelly: Oh. Dr. Sh ... (blushes badly and she tries to get it to go away by fanning her face) ... Dr. Shepherd explained everything. He was very... huh...helpful. He gave me some literat ... (blushing gets even worse) ... sorry... Alex: Don't be. Half the patients that come through here have the hots for Shepherd. Bailey (in a disapproving voice): Dr. Karev. Alex: What? ... It's true. (Izzie pacing with arms crossed, waiting out in the hall for Alex. George and Meredith are in the distant grabbing food from the vending machine.) Izzie: Hey, why do you do that? Alex: What? Izzie: Act like an ass when everybody but me is around, they hate you enough as it is. Alex (shrugs): So? ... (Izzie still stands there annoyed) What? (Dr. Bailey appears from the corner.) Bailey: Hey there's a new surgical case coming up from the pit. Likely diverticulitis. Let's go. (Izzie, Alex and George follow hurriedly. Meredith grabs her food and runs after them a bit behind) Woman: Watch it! Hands off me! I could report you to the chief and you'd be out on your ass. (Meredith stops recognizing the voice. She starts walking slowly to where the others are around another corner. Ellis Grey is shouting from a moving gurney. Christina is reading her chart, while Dr. Bailey, Alex, Izzie & George move the gurney.) Ellis: Where is the chief?!? Cristina: Patient's name is ...ah... Ellis: Where is the chief?!? You're all amateurs. Cristina: complaining of intermittent cramping pain and diarrhea. Also suffers from ...ah... (Meredith can now see it is her mother and stares shocked, backing away slowly. Christina is knowing its Meredith's mother is unsure if she should continue. She makes brief eye contact with Meredith.) Ellis (yells): AMATEURS! Cristina: Alzheimer's. Bailey: Patient's name? Cristina: Um... Bailey: Yang! Patient's name! Ellis (to Meredith): What the hell are you doing here? (Meredith scurries off, hiding behind an office corner, peeking her head out) Ellis (in an increasing yelling voice): Haven't I told? How many times have I told you not to bother me when I'm at work?! (Dr. Bailey & the others stare at Meredith) Cristina: Ellis Grey. George: Meredith's mother. Ellis (yelling): You're amateurs! You're amateurs! (Izzie, Alex, George, & Christina all talking at once in the hallway just outside the locker room being blocked by Dr. Bailey. Meredith is inside) George: Meredith, are you okay? Bailey (places her hand over George's mouth): Just zip. (She hands chart to Alex). Dr. Karev stick with ETS case and Alex her blushing impulse not a toy for you to play with or button for you to push. Understood? Cristina (sounding sincere): Hey Meredith, you know um my great grandmother, she died with Alzheimer's. Izzie: My god, why would you say that? Cristina: Look, I'm just trying to help. Bailey: Izzie, the Dr. Shepherd's need an intern up in the NICU. Izzie: Wait, both of them? ... To..gether...and me by myself with the two married people who hate each other? Bailey: Go. (Izzie walks off) Bailey: Christina you're on the thoracotomy. Cristina: With Burke? Oh can I have the hateful married couple instead? Bailey (annoyed): Okay, I'm sorry I thought that I was your resident not your hostess. I assign, you take. Is that a problem? Cristina (stutters): N-nn Bailey (annoyed): Is there some reason why it's inconvenient for you to spend the day in the OR. learning from Dr. Burke? Cristina: No. I'm very happy to be working with Dr. Burke. Thank you very much. (Christina walks off) Bailey: George, take care of Dr. Grey. George: Yes. Thank you. (moves in and hugs Dr. Bailey who is stiff and confused) She needs a friend right now. (George tries to move into the locker room, but Dr. Bailey throws her arm against the door way to stop him). Bailey: What? George: Oh you mean Ellis the ... (Dr. Bailey goes into the locker room. George walks away not sure where to go) mother. (Dr. Bailey shuts the door to the locker room. Meredith removes herself from hiding behind one of the lockers and goes and opens her own locker.) Bailey: Are you able to work today? Meredith: Yes. I'm fine. Bailey: Cause I would understand it if you wanted to be with your ... Meredith: No. My mother and I don't have the easiest...it's just better if I'm working. Bailey: Okay. You're on scut. Meredith: Excuse me? Bailey: While we take care of your mother, you can catch up on charting, run samples to the lab, go over (Meredith cuts her off) Meredith: I told you, I'm fine. Bailey: Yea and I appreciate that you're fine but I have to anticipate a certain level of distraction from you today. Even in the face of all that fineness. So scut now! (Natal Intensive Care Unit where Dr. Shepherd is going over the baby's chart while Izzie and Addison are watching over the baby who is in a glass encasing.) Derek: Where's the mother? Addison: Gone. She stuck around long enough to get the kid strung out and then took off. Nice, huh? Derek (frustrated): Addison! Addison: Derek I know it's a long sht. I know that. Derek: You told me you had a newborn with an invasive mash. You fail to mention that she's premature, underweight and addicted to narcotics. There's no way that this baby is going to survive spinal surgery. Addison: You don't know that. Derek: Even if she does, she's a mess. She'll just get meningitis seizures. She's going to live a short painful life. Addison: You don't know that. Derek: It's my job to know that. Addison: You're not God Derek. Derek: Excuse me? Addison: I'm sorry honey but you're not. You don't get to decide (she is cut off by Dr. Shepherd) Derek: Wait did you just call me honey (Addison tries to talk). Don't call me honey! (Izzie is getting uncomfortable with the turn of conversation) Addison: Fine. You're not god Dr. Shepherd. Look if a patient has any chance at survival, which I think she does, then you have a responsibility (cut off by Derek again) Derek: Don't talk to me about responsibility. Addison: You took an oath Derek! Derek: Oh don't you dare talk to me about oaths! Addison: Derek, I messed up. People mess up. Derek: You slept with my best friend in my favorite sheets. Addison: The flannel sheets? You hate the flannel sheets. Derek: No I love the sheets. Addison: You like the Italian sheets with the paisleys (cut of by Derek) Derek: Would you just stop talking about the sheets? Addison: Fine! Izzie: Look I'm sorry. I'm just gonna go. I'll go check on the labs. (Izzie leaves the room. Addison is upset.) Derek: Addison, don't do this. Addison: Derek ... look she's a fighter. Look how far she's come already. Derek: Don't get attached. Don't get involved. Just ... don't make her life more painful than it already is. Addison: Derek, please. She has nobody. She needs someone to fight for her. Derek: She's too far gone. You have to let her go. Let her go in peace. (Derek leaves the room) Addison (watching Derek leave the NICU unit): Fine Derek, walk away. It's what you do best. (Dr. Burke is packing his stuff away from Richard's desk. Richard is putting his own stuff back on the desk) Burke: I've enjoyed the opportunity to show you my capabilities in this arena however brief. Richard: Stop fishing, Preston. You did a good job. ... But I'm back now and I don't plan on going anywhere, anytime soon. Burke: I am glad that you're back. I'm just hiding my joy...deep down inside. (Burke picks up his box of stuff and moves to leave the office) And ah chief ... the hat ... it's a little pimped out. (Burke leaves. Richard takes off the pimp hat. Meredith holding a patient file knocks on the office door and enters) Meredith: Welcome back chief. Richard: It's good to be back, Dr. Grey. Uh what can I do for you: Meredith: It's my mother sir. (Meredith hands him the file. Richard flips through it, looks at Meredith and sits down) Meredith: I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I know you two are close. But she made me promise. She seems to be reliving the heyday of her residency a lot these days. And I just thought maybe if you could stop by and say hello, it would mean a lot to her. Richard (takes a second to answer): Well of course. (stares at Meredith) Do you need a day off? Meredith: Oh no. I'm fine. Richard: Yeah. Meredith: Okay (starts backing away and walks out of the office) (George is trying to Ellis Grey a physical exam. She is constantly turning away from him.) George: Um...if you could just hold still (Ellis shrugs out of his grasp and grabs her chart) Ellis: I'm in the middle of my work day Thatch. George: Thatch? No, I'm Dr. O'Malley. (They wrestle for the chart, Ellis eventually yanks it) Okay. I just need to check your... Ellis: Darling I'm not in the mood to play doctor now. Hands off, I'm busy. Um... (Meredith comes and stands out at the doorway) Meredith: George. George: Um. Ellis: Damn it Thatcher I mean it no. Meredith: George. (George leaves the room to go talk to Meredith) Meredith: She's allergic to penicillin. George: Yeah? Oh yeah it said on her chart. Meredith: Oh. ... You just have to be patient. George: Okay. Do you um ... who's Thatch? (long pause) Meredith: My dad, Thatcher. ... What did she ... is she ... is she talking about him? George: Um...yeah. She's... Meredith: She never talks about him. George: You're, you're all right. Meredith: No, yeah, yeah. I'm good. George (murmurs): Good. Meredith: Um. I can't be here. George: Of course, I mean we're good here, we're great, so... Meredith: Okay. George: Okay. (George goes back into Ellis's room. Meredith peeks in briefly before leaning back against an adjacent wall. She sees Derek walking by and goes after him. He is going through some files. Meredith comes and stands at the door.) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Meredith. I heard. Is it true? Meredith: Yeah. Secret's out. Derek (sighs): Ohhh. Meredith: Dr. Shepherd, I ... (Derek cuts her off) Derek: You don't have to call me Dr. Shepherd. Meredith (adamant): Dr. Shepherd. I want in on a surgical case. I can't just do nothing all day. (sighs) And you owe me this. And I never ask you for anything like this, so... Derek: I have ETS this afternoon. You'll scrub in. (Derek leaves the room.) (Dr. Burke is operating, performing a thoracotomy on Mr. Gaston. Cristina enters the OR. A doctor hands her a gown) Doctor: Here Dr. Yang. Burke: You're late. Cristina: I apologize. (She joins a group of interns who are watching) Doctor: Suction. Burke: Just starting to dissect around Mr. Gaston's tumor. (Cristina seems a bit tired) Burke: I've almost got visualization. (Kelly's room where Alex is checking her glands. Dr. Shepherd enters the room.) Derek: Hey Kelly. Kelly: Dr. Shep (her face goes instantly red, she starts fanning her face again furiously. Meredith enters the room as well) Dr. Shepherd. God. Sorry. Damn it. Derek: Kelly. Kelly: Yup. (continues fanning her face) DErek: Kelly. Kelly: Mmm hmm. Derek: This might be the last time that ever happens. (Kelly smiles briefly) How are her labs? Alex: H&H are sab. Chest x-rays show no acute process. Derek: Good. You're ready to go? Kelly: Are you kidding? I've been ready since the 3rd grade. Derek: Did you read the literature I gave you? (Kelly nods.) You understand the possible side-effects? Kelly: Compensatory sweating of the back, abdomen, thighs and legs. Possible gustatory sweating. Horner's syndrome occurs in less than 1% of patients. Brachial plexus injury. Pneumothorax and hemothorax are highly unlikely but possible side effects of the surgery. Derek: You did your homework. (to Alex). Take her to pre-op. I'll alert the O.R. (Derek leaves the room) Alex: Do you know what all those words mean? (Kelly looks at him) Brachial plexus injury could cause paralysis of the arms. Pneumothorax is a collapsed lung. Kelly: I know (she is still red faced) Meredith: Are you sure you want to risk all of that? Over a little bit of blushing. Kelly: Is that ... what you think this is? A little bit of blushing? Just a school girl embarrassment? You both saw what happened when Dr. Shep ... (she goes even redder and starts fanning her self again) ... when Dr. Shepherd was here. What did you think? Alex: Well I thought you liked him. Kelly: I do but you think I wanna room full of doctors to know about it? Alex: It's not like we're gonna... Kelly: It's not just you guys. It's not just this once. It happens ... every time I have a feeling for anyone ... in my life. (she is trying not to cry) I can't ... get mad. I can't be happy. I can't feel anything without the whole world knowing. I can't have a secret. Can you imagine living that way you're entire life? (Ellis Grey's room. There is a loud smash.) Ellis (yelling): Get away from me you insipid little man. (She throws a pillow at George) George: Dr. Grey calm down. Ellis: Get out of here! Get out of my room now! George: Dr. Grey calm down! Ellis: Get away from my house! George: Please! (Nurse walks in) Nurse: What can I do? George: Calm down! (to nurse) Please get some haloperidol. (Nurse leaves) Ellis: Don't give me that look. That sapful, little soulful puppy routine. I know it by heart, Thatch! And I'm over it. (Alex and Meredith are coming down the hall and stop outside the room. Alex pokes his head in. Meredith is looking anywhere but the room.) Ellis: I don't wanna hear about your day, your students, your pathetic little research grants. My ... my work is what counts! It's what pays for this house. It's pays for ... it pays for you! And it pays for, it pays for Meredith! (Meredith is just listening now) And your precious lifestyle. So why don't you just leave me alone and let me do it! (Alex looks disbelieving) Meredith make thinks she needs you but sure as hell don't. George: Dr. Grey. (nurse comes running in) Nurse: Here it is. (Meredith walks away into a room and sighs with her back against the door. It turns out its Kelly's room) Kelly: Are you okay? Meredith: That's something I'm supposed to be asking you. (George is running around the halls, looking for someone. Richard calls out from his office) Richard: O'Malley. (Richard walks out to meet him. He is wearing a golfer's hat now) I understand you're working on Ellis Grey. George: Yes sir, I'm trying my best. Richard: Right. Keep me informed of her progress and take good care of her. She's an old friend of mine. George: Really? Because actually I could use some help. Could, could you help me ... examine her? Richard: Um, ah... I'm just a little busy just now...uh..ah...gotta run. (Richard starts to walk off) George: Right. Okay. It's just that she seems to think that I'm her ex-husband and she won't let me touch her. (Richard stops, taking off his cap and looks at George) Richard: It's funny you do...look a bit like Thatcher. George (partly mortified): I look a bit like Meredith's dad? Richard: Um...just take good care of her George. (Richard walks off) George: But...like her dad? ... ... I need help. (Izzie walking down the stairwell. Alex catches up with her) Alex: Hey. Izzie: Hey. Alex: Woah, wait, wait. Izzie: What? (They stop walking. Alex reaches up and removes an eyelash from Izzie's face.) Alex: You have an eyelash. (he puts it on the palm of his hand) Make a wish and blow it away. (Izzie smiles and closes her eyes. Someone else is coming up the stairs. Alex is distracted) Alex: Hey Nurse Ratchet, there's a dad guy stinking up Room 41 25. (Izzie walks starts walking away)Do something about it before he rots! (Alex catches up with Izzie as they enter a floor on the hospital and starting walking down a hall) Izzie: See? That is exactly what I'm talking about. Alex: Come on. Izzie: Why are you so up-tight in showing people that you're a decent human being? (George comes down from another hallway and sees them. Alex goes to speak but George beats him to it) George: Remember when he wallpapered the hospital with pictures of you in your underwear? Izzie: Yeah... Yeah I do. (she walks off) Alex: That was before I knew you. (George walks up to Alex) Thanks man, very helpful. George: I need you to help me do an exam on Meredith's mom. Alex (sarcastic): Oh a standard exam. You did go to med school, right? George: She thinks I'm her ex-husband. She won't let me. (Ellis Grey rifling through her bed-side drawers. Alex and George enter her room) George: Dr. Grey. Ellis: Oh damn it Thatcher I'm at work. I've already told you I'm too busy to deal with you now. No more cartoons. George: She means interruptions. Alex: No more interruptions Thatch. You heard the doctor. (Alex walks in up to Ellis) Hi ma'am I'm Dr. Karev. (he shake's Ellis' hand) Please to meet you Dr. Grey. I've always admired your work. Ellis: So you're familiar with the laparoscopic-grey method? Alex: Oh I've studied footage of the operation you pioneered. (he removes his stethoscope) You're something else. (George is watching on) Ellis: Good. Well then we're wasting time. Let's scrub in. Alex: Well Dr. Grey I'm going to need to do a short exam before you start surgery. (Ellis looks on questioningly)I know. New hospital policy. Annoying PR crap. Ellis: Ah! (she removes her cardigan which is over her hospital gown) Make it quick. (Alex starts listening to heart bat with his stethoscope) Alex: Why don't you wait outside Thatcher? I can take it from here. (George leaves the room) Alex: Take a deep breath. (NICU unit. Addison is watching over the premature baby who is gripping Addison's finger. Izzie walks into the room with the baby's chart) Izzie: She's got a good grip. Addison: Yeah. Izzie: I don't think, ... (she shakes her head and paces the chart to Addison) it doesn't look good. Addison: She's a got a resistant strain of pneumococcus. The antibiotics aren't working. You may want to get yourself reassigned Dr. Stevens. I don't think we'll be operating today. Izzie: So do you think Dr. Shepherd was right? Addison: She's just too far gone ... She does have a good grip. (OR with Dr. Burke still operating on Mr. Gaston. Christina is looking exhausted and sweaty) Burke: The tumor has infiltrated the pericardium. (Dr. Burke still operating looks at Christina. She appears to be daydreaming.) Burke: Yang. (his voice sounds distant and muffled from Christina's perspective. Her surroundings appear blurry.) Yang! Cristina: What, sorry? Burke: Is my surgery interrupting your daydreaming? Cristina: No. Sorry. (Pans up to viewing room were other doctors are watching including Dr. Bailey. Izzie walks in and sits next to her. Izzie sighs) Bailey: You have a problem? Izzie: No. Bailey: You have a mocha latte? Izzie: No. Bailey: Then go away. Izzie: Actually I need a new assignment. The uh Shepherds' preemie case is not surgical. Bailey: Not surgical? Izzie: Non-operable. Bailey: Sucks. Izzie: Yeah. Bailey: Did you know about Ellis Grey? Did Meredith tell you? Izzie: No. It's just that you think, you think you know someone. You know who they are. You share a house. Make wishes on eyelashes with them. ... We don't know each other. None of us. We're just a bunch of interns who work together. There's nothing there. (Goes back to O.R. Christina is still seeing blurry) Burke: There is an arrhythmia when I press down on the tumor. That is a sign of what, Yang? Cristina: Um ... ... ah it's a sign of, it's a ... it's a sign that the uh tumor has infiltrated the pericardium. Burke: Possibilities? Cristina: In all...I'm sorry. I ... Burke: Do your homework Yang. It could be causing a tear in the aortic muscle of the heart. Doctor: Hmm. So he's got a broken heart. (Christina sways and collapses on the floor) Doctor: Dr. Yang are you okay? Burke: Cristina. Cristina. (Camera moves back to viewing room where Izzie and Dr. Bailey have leapt up to their feet and see Cristina lying on the floor, surrounded by doctors) Burke: Somebody help her! (The doctors lay Cristina on her back. Izzie & Dr. Bailey leave the viewing room. Dr. Burke has stopped the surgery but not moved from where he's standing. Doctors still surround Cristina) Burke: Cristina! Don't just stand there dammit. Somebody help her. Get a gurney in here! (Izzie & Dr. Bailey put on masks and enter the OR. Doctors rush out to get a gurney) Burke: Cristina. Izzie: Cristina. Bailey: We've got it Dr. Burke. We've got it. (Breathing mask is being put on Cristina's face) Burke: Okay talk to me. Tell me what we do we know. What do we know? Talk to me Stevens. Izzie: I don't know. Burke: Come on people let's move. Bailey: Cristina! What hurts? (Cristina doesn't respond but is conscious) Let's get her out of here. There's a patient on the table. Lift. (They lift Cristina onto the gurney and start moving her out of the OR) Bailey: Good, good. Burke: Dr. Bailey when you get her sab, I need a report please. (she doesn't answer) Dr. Bailey?! Bailey (busy): Right Dr. Burke! (They move Cristina out and down the hall) Bailey: Uh! Her pulse is racing. I need her on a monitor to get a BP. Also I want her started on a liter of LR wide open (Cristina is trying to talk) Izzie run ahead to emergency and let them know we're on our way. (Cristina is still trying to talk. Izzie removes her mask) Izzie (whispers): What? Cristina (breathless): Seven weeks. I'm pregnant Izzie. Izzie, I'm pregnant. (Izzie & Dr. Bailey stop and look at each other. They move the gurney into an elevator. Izzie is standing shocked outside) Bailey (to another doctor with the gurney): Uh, okay no. We're going to pre-op instead. (To Izzie) Find Addison Shepherd. Izzie be discreet. (Elevator doors close) (Addison and Richard walking down hall. Richard is wearing another new hat. This time a grey kinda 1920s gangster hat) Addison: So I'm leaving in the morning. Richard: No. Addison: Excuse me? Richard: No. I'm not accepting your resignation. Addison: It's not a resignation Richard. It's notification. I don't officially work for you. (They enter Richard's office) Addison: I came here for one case. I can track the twins progress from New York. Richard: What about the preemie? Addison: I'm letting go of the preemie, you know that. ... He calls me Satan, Richard. Richard: You don't like to hide from a fight. Addison: It's not a fight. He wins. (Richard puts away his hat) I'm leaving in the morning. (Addison moves to leave. George knocks on the door and steps into Richard's office) Richard: What is it O'Malley? George: It's Dr. Grey, sir. Ellis. (Izzie walking down a hallway looking for Addison. The level above where Richard and George are walking. Addison is trailing behind. Richard has switched to a bowlers cap now) George: CT confirmed diverticulitis but a liver mass was also found. Richard: My god. George: Poor Meredith. As if her mother having Alzheimer's isn't bad enough now she has to deal with liver cancer. (They start heading downstairs) Richard: You won't know that its cancer until you do a biopsy O'Malley. George: Right. Sorry. (Izzie comes to the bottom of the stairs. They stop walking.) Izzie: Excuse me Dr. Shepherd. We need you fast. ( Addison looks at Richard briefly) Um...it's Cristina, one of our interns. She's ... (she obviously doesn't want to say this in front of George) she's collapsed. George: Cristina's collapsed? Addison : Why do you need me? (Izzie sighs but doesn't say anything. Comprehension dawns on Addison and Richard, realizing she must be pregnant. George looks at them getting it too) George: Cristina's pregnant?! Izzie: Shut up George. (speaks to Addison) Please come. (Addison follows Izzie) Addison: This doesn't change anything Richard I'm still leaving in the morning. George: This is a very bad day. (OR room where Derek is performing the ETS on Kelly. Alex & Meredith are there as well) Derek: Okay Dr. Karev if were going to stop her blushing we have to expose the sympathetic ganglion chain, which resides where? (Richard enters the O.R with George standing at the doorway) Richard: It's time to clear me for surgery Shepherd. Derek: What? Richard: I know you heard me. I'm standing right here. Derek: Chief I'm a little busy. We'll talk about it later. (Richard walks in holding a mask over his mouth. The door to the OR closes. George is waiting outside) Richard: Just give a verbal okay and we can do the paperwork later. Derek: I cannot do that. Richard: I am your chief of surgery. This is not a request. Derek: With all do respect, sir in this situation I am not your subordinate. I'm your doctor. Once week after brain surgery, you are not ready to resume medical practice. Richard: It's a simple procedure. A needle biopsy. A resident could do it. Derek: So let a resident do it. What am I missing here? (Meredith is watching the conversation, realizes what it's about) Meredith: It's for my mother, isn't it? You think she has cancer? Richard: George needs your signature. (Meredith looks at Derek and then leaves the OR) Derek: Look Richard I know she's your friend but I'm not clearing you for surgery. (Meredith has come out of the OR to sign the forms needed to do the procedure) Meredith: What's her total bili? George: It's actually only 4. (Meredith nods) It's not great but it's not terrible. (George hands her the forms and a pen to sign) Meredith: That's why I didn't see the jaundice George (looks uncomfortable): No one could we just have to wait and see. Meredith: What aren't you telling me? George: It's Cristina. (Addison is performing an ultrasound on Cristina who is now lying in a hospital bed. Dr. Bailey is standing behind Cristina's bed, stroking her hair) Addison: Have you notified the father? (Cristina doesn't say anything, just sort of breaths funny) Bailey: Cristina? Cristina? Uh, Cristina? Cristina? Is there anyone we can call? (Cristina just continues slightly gasping) Oh we're losing her. Addison (pointing to the screen displaying Cristian's uterus): Oh man do you see that? It's an extra uterine pregnancy in the tube there. She's bleeding out. (Dr. Burke whose just coming out of the O.R now. He's stopped by Richard just outside the whiteboard which lists all the surgeries occurring in the OR's of the hospital and at what time) Richard: Ah good you're finished. I need you to do a needle biopsy. Burke: Uh...gotta go check on ... there's someone I need to see about. I had an intern collapse on me in the middle of surgery so if this can wait... Richard (adamant): No I need you to do a needle biopsy now. Burke: Chief now is not the time. Richard: Look, I'm not in the mood for a debate. You understand. You'll do it because I asked you to. (An intern is scrubbing off one of the surgeries listed on the OR board and is writing on a new surgery) Richard: Because I need you to. (Burke looks at him) It's Ellis Grey. (Richard walks off. Burke eventually follows, but misses the intern writing YANG, C E.R.A on the board) (O.R where Addison is performing surgery on Cristina to remove the pregnancy. Dr. Bailey is still behind Cristina watching over her. Izzie is observing Addison) Izzie: She's gonna be okay, right? Addison: How attached was she to this pregnancy? Izzie: I don't know. She's a pretty private person. Addison: She's lost a lot of blood but I've got it from here. (continues performing surgery) Dr. Bailey you must have a surgery or two of your own today. Bailey: I'm fine right here. (Derek washing his hands after the surgery. Meredith and Alex enter the room to wash up as well) Meredith (to Alex): Can you do the follow up? I wanna check on Cristina. Alex: Yeah. You know what's wrong with her? (Derek stops Meredith and holds her arms comfortingly. Meredith backs out of his grasp looking upset. Dr. Shepherd holds his arms up in defense) Meredith (sharply): Don't! Derek: Sorry. Meredith: Don't be sorry. I'm so tired it, you being sorry. Derek: Dr. (cut of by Meredith) Meredith: Don't do it! Derek: Dr. Grey ... Meredith (annoyed): Dr. Grey, seriously. Are you concerned about Alex finding out about us? Is that what matters to you? Do you really think he cares? (Meredith turns to Alex. Alex is trying not to look bemused) Meredith (loudly): Alex do you care that I was the intern stupid enough to screw the married attending? Alex: No. (Meredith looks pointingly at Derek) Derek: It's okay. Meredith (loud and upset): It's not okay! You have a wife who's not easy to hate. (They've finished washing up but Alex stays to listen behind Derek) Who's annoyingly kind and painfully smart and currently saving my friend's life. Derek (softly): Meredith just... (Meredith cuts him off) Meredith: Don't! Stop talking to me like you're my boyfriend! Stop talking to me at all. (Meredith leaves the room) Alex: Dude, that was rough. (Derek nods slightly and walks out as well) (Meredith who has run over to outside the OR Cristina is in. She's about to come in. Dr. Bailey sees her and goes over to stop her at the door) Bailey: Need something? Meredith: I'm coming in. Bailey: No you're not. Meredith: I am. I'm her friend. Bailey: Exactly. She's lying on the operating table, naked, exposed. She's sedated but she's probably scared out of her mind. Now right now she's not a doctor. She's not your friend. She's a patient and she deserves to have all the privacy I can give her. You're not going in there. (Addison and Izzie look on) Meredith (sighs): We went jogging this morning. I made her go jogging. There's no way that could of? Bailey: No. It started out this way. Nothing caused it to happen. Meredith: You have to let me in there. Bailey (jokingly): You can try. I'd have to take you down. Hey I might be short but you're pretty tiny. I could do it. Meredith: Right now. Just in this moment. I hate you. Bailey: Hmm, yeah well I can take it. (Dr. Burke who is performing the needle biopsy on Ellis in her room. George is inside watching) Burke: Alright Dr. Grey we're going to put you to sleep for a little while, but I promise we'll have you back into surgery in no time. Ellis: Richard, thank god you're here. You beautiful man. That husband of mine is making me crazy. (Richard is watching outside through a glass window) (Derek is looking out into Seattle outside the big glass window in the hall by himself. Meredith is sitting alone in a viewing room of an OR looking upset) (Derek is watching over the preemie baby. Addison walks in) Addison: Look at that, BP is s*ab. Derek: She's stronger since this morning. (Taking her chart he goes to sit in a rocking chair in the room) There's no reason in the world why she should be stronger since this morning. Addison: She's really beautiful, isn't she? Derek: I'll tell you what. If she makes it through the night, if she has a little bit more strength I'll operate. (They smile at each other) Addison : You know the way I see it we could deal with us in one of three ways. (She starts moving towards Derek) Addison: Option 1. I could apologize. You could forgive me and come home and we could move on with our lives like adults. Or, option 2. I could apologize. You could forgive me, come home but, you can still bring it up to use against me whenever we argue. Derek: Are you trying to be funny? (Addison leans over Derek) Addison: Satan has a sense of humor. Derek: What's the 3rd? Addison: I don't know what the 3rd option is. (Addison leans in and kisses Derek. He kisses back. Addison pulls away) Addison: I just know that I still love you. (Dr. Burke and George walking down the hall with OR board) Burke: Tell them the chief said to put a rush on this biopsy. Tell them it's Ellis Grey. George: Okay. (George walks off. Dr. Burke noticing the O.R board stops and stares. George comes back) George: Dr. Burke do you want the histological grade and staging or any specific stains? Burke: Have them run all tests. (He continues to stare at the board. The camera focuses in on next to C.YANG: EXPLOARATORY LAPAROTOMY ECTOPIC PREGANCY PRPS. SALPINGO - OOPHERECTOMY INPATIENT Dr. Burke is shocked) (Cristina lying in a hospital room. Dr Bailey is sitting in a chair watching over her. There's just silence for a little bit) Cristina: What happened? Bailey: You had an extra uterine pregnancy. Your left fallopian tube burst. (she sighs) Dr. Shepherd ... she did everything she could but there was too much damage. She couldn't save the tube. (Cristina doesn't say anything, just closes her eyes) (Kelly's room. Meredith is checking her. Alex is going over her chart. Kelly is waking up) Kelly: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Kelly: Is it over? Meredith: Mmm hmm. The surgery was successful. We're just doing a follow up. Dr. Shepherd will be in to check on you in a while. (Kelly doesn't blush) Kelly: Say that again. Alex: What? Kelly: Say his name. Dr. Shepherd. (she still doesn't blush) Oh my god look at my face. Dr. Shepherd. Dr. Shepherd. Meredith: Guess it was worth the risk. (Kelly chuckles and is smiling happily) (Alex and Meredith leave her room) Alex: Still think its nuts having major surgery just so people can't tell how you're feeling. Meredith: Really, you do? Alex: Nah. I guess not. (Alex walks ahead a little but stops and turns back to Meredith) You could talk you know. If you need to. Meredith: I'm fine. Alex: You've said that word so many times today it doesn't even sound like a work anymore. Just saying you can talk to me cause even if I repeat every word you say no one around here likes me. They'll just call me a liar and move on. Meredith (smiling): Izzie likes you. (Alex turns away trying not to smile). You're blushing. Alex: Shut up. (comes back up to Meredith) Look for what it's worth, I don't know how you're still on your feet. If I found out my mom might have cancer I'd be under the bar right now. Meredith: You want the ugly truth? Alex: What you have an ugly truth? (shakes his head) I never would have picked you to have an ugly truth. Meredith: I'm more afraid she doesn't have cancer. Alex: Well. Liver cancer's fast. Painful but its fast and they give you morphine. They don't give you morphine for Alzheimer's. Meredith: No they don't. (sighs) What kind of person wishes their mother has cancer? (Alex doesn't reply) (Richard in Ellis Grey's room. She is sleeping) Richard (sighs): It's hard. I know its hard being the one who's gone. But man it isn't easy being the one who's still around. (Meredith and George waiting for her mother's biopsy results at the nurses station. Izzie comes in and sits next to George) Izzie: Hey did you get your mom's biopsy results back yet? George: Not yet. Meredith: How's Cristina? Izzie (sighs): She's ah... she's gonna have a lotta pain for a few days but she'll be okay. Meredith: I'm glad you were there. Izzie: Are you? Meredith: Yes, I am. Izzie: It's just (half laughs) it's just that a lot of the time it feels like you and Cristina are kinda over there and ... I'm here. Meredith: So bout Alex. Izzie: Yeah I know, I know. You guys hate him. Fine. (George groans) Meredith: Yeah we do but I just wanna say that I believe you. That he's different once you get to know him. (Izzie smiles) Lab Tech: Here you go. (Lab tech appears and hands results to Meredith) Ellis Grey. (She reads the results while George and Izzie look on. She gets up and gives the results to George) Meredith: Let her know. (She starts walking away) Izzie: Meredith, are you okay? Meredith: No. I'm not okay. (Ellis Grey lying in her hospital bed. George walks in) George: Dr. Grey. (She opens her eyes startled) Ellis: Oh please Thatcher I've had a long day. Go away (She closes her eyes) George: No! (she opens them again) Ellis: What? George: No. (he checks to see if anyone is nearby) I am Thatcher Grey and I'm your husband. And uh I know you don't like me very much but ... the fact is I don't always like you very much either. (Ellis looks surprised) I don't like the way you speak to me. And I really hate the way you speak to Meredith. She deserves better from you. Ellis: I'm sorry. George: You are? Ellis: What's wrong with me Thatch? George: Ah, the mass on your liver ... (she cuts him off) Ellis: Is it algebra? ... I mean is it alge ... damn it. (sighs) Is it malignant? George: No. It's benign. (Outside SGH) (Derek walking out of the hospital. He's sees Meredith sitting on a bench. She's crying but he can't see her face only her back.) Derek: Meredith? Meredith (softly): Oh. Derek: Meredith. Meredith (sobs): Don't. ... Please, please just don't say anything. Derek: Okay. (He's still standing there. She gets up and goes around the bench, stopping in front of him. He looks concerned) Meredith: I'm just exhausted. My mother is exhausting. What happened to Cristina and you. Hating you is the most exhausting. (She grabs his face and kisses him briefly) Meredith: I don't want to do it anymore. (She walks back into the hospital. Derek is stunned.) (SGH) MVO: No one likes to lose control but as a surgeon there's nothing worse. (Ellis Grey's room. She's made space for 'Thatch' on her bed. George stares. She pats it. He eventually sits on the bed and lies next to her.) MVO: It's a sign of weakness. Of not being up to the task. (Izzie & Alex standing in a hallway in the hospital outside a doorway) Izzie: How can someone be so offensive and yet so charming all at the same time? Alex: It's an art form. Izzie: Hmm (They both smile. She walks off) MVO: And still there are times when it just gets away from you. (Ellis & George. She kisses him on the cheek) MVO: When the world stops spinning. And you realize that your shiny little scalpel isn't gonna save you. (Meredith walking into Cristina's hospital room. There's no one else there) (Dr. Burke talking to Mr. Gaston in his hospital room) Burke: We went in expecting to simply remove the tumor. Instead it was a little more complicated. The tumor infiltrated into the pericardium causing a tear in the outer muscle of the heart. Mr. Gaston: Um. That's a lot of medical talk. Burke (finding it difficult to talk): It means um ... (clears throat and takes off his glasses) It means ... that you had... you had a broken heart literally. (he smiles wryly) um ... but now I am um ... (he half laughs) but now you're going to be fine. (He walks out of the room. He squeezes his eyes shut, trying not to cry?) MVO: No matter how hard you fight it. You fall. And its scary as hell. (Burke stops in front of Cristina's room. Cristina is sleeping. Meredith, Alex, George and Izzie are in there) MVO: Except there's an upside to free falling. It's the chance you give your friends to catch you. (Dr. Burke walks away)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x03 - Make me Lose Control"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x04: Deny, Deny, Deny Original Airdate: 10/16/2005 Written by: Zoanne Clack Directed by: Wendey Stanzler (Bailey and the interns are at the bar) MVO: The key to surviving a surgical internship is denial. We deny that we're tired, we deny that we're scared, we deny how badly we want to succeed, and most importantly, we deny that we're in denial. (Izzie grabs her drink and walks over to table where George & Meredith are sitting with their own drinks and nibbles) George: I don't know. When I left, Cristina said she was ok. Izzie: Nobody goes what she went through and is totally over it by now. George: Cristina can. Meredith: She's fine. Izzie: Too fine. She's cold. George: No, she's hardcore. She's got ice in her veins. She does what she has to do to get through it. Izzie: She lost a baby. She lost a fallopian tube and she's acting like she doesn't even care. She's all "Hello, I'm totally fine person." Ok, she's my friend too but she's acting like she has no emotions or warmth, like she's missing a soul. George: God, she's gonna make a great surgeon. Izzie: George! George: It's true. You show no weakness, you make it to the top. Meredith: Some people just keep their feelings to themselves. (Derek walks into the bar. He doesn't see her and sits down at the bar next to Bailey) MVO: We only see what we wanna see and believe what we want to believe. And it works. We lie to ourselves so much that after a while, the lies start to seem like the truth. Derek: Meredith kissed me. Addison kissed me. My wife and my girlfriend kissed me on the same day. Bailey: Joe, do I look friendly to you? Joe: Oh, you're a tiny little kitten of joy and love. (Dr. Bailey makes a face) What? He saved my life. Bailey: His first mistake. Mc Dreamy, go sit by someone who cares. Derek: Oh gee... (Derek doesn't move) MVO: We deny so much that we can't recognize the truth, right in front of our faces. Derek: Everything's gonna be fine. Addison will go back to New York. Meredith and I'll start over, everything's gonna be fine. Right? Bailey: You so damn stupid. (Parking lot then hallway inside SGH) (Bailey is making rounds with Alex, Izzie, Meredith & George) Bailey: I want everyone focused today. With Cristina out, we're short an intern and I have a feeling it's gonna be one of those days. And Karev, see the chief by the end of the day. Alex: What for? Bailey: Do I look psychic to you? He is the chief. He asked. You go. Meredith (whispers to George): What did he do now? George: Maybe he gave the chief syphilis. (Patient's room who is over crowded with interns, doctors and nurses listening to her tell a story) Woman: So we're in the middle of the Belizian jungle and this jaguarondi jumps out and bites one of the guides. (Dr. Bailey enters the room with her interns) Woman: They all look at me. They're yelling, "You're a doctor, help him!" This is one time a PhD does no good. Bailey: I'm sorry, did I miss the bell for social hour? (Everybody starts to leave except Bailey's group) Woman: Tales of missionary life. Izzie: You're a missionary? Woman: No, my parents. We traveled a lot. They still do. Izzie: Oh wow. This stuff looks great. (She is looking at some artifacts. She then sees Dr. Bailey looking annoyed.) Izzie: Um, this is Dr. Burke's patient, (pronounces name very American) Kalpana Vera... Kalpana: "Kull-punnah." Named by villagers in Nepal. Izzie: Uh, she presents with a multiple syncopal episodes and ventricular arrhythmias. Bailey: So you've been passing out? Kalpana: Yeah and having palpitations. Izzie: Past medical history of rheumatic heart disease with mitral valve stenosis. Kalpana: They had to ship me from Zambia to the States for 3 months of treatment when I was 8. Rheumatic fever almost klled me. Bailey (to Izzie): Dr. Stevens. What are the primary causes of ventricular arrhythmias? (Izzie moves to speak but is interrupted by Cristina who has come to the doorway in her hospital gown with her IV stand) Cristina: Valvular disease, mitral valve prolapse, stimulants, drugs, and metabolic abnormalities. (She looks pleased with herself. Everyone else looks exasperated or amused) Cristina: What? Bailey: Out! Cristina: I'm fine. Bailey: Out! You better be in your room by the time we round on you. Cristina: And when will that be? Bailey: In 15 seconds. 14. 13. 12. 11. (Cristina starts walking away, but you can see her underwear through the slip at the back of the gown. George, Izzie & Meredith laugh. Dr. Bailey turns away.) Alex: Nice panties, Yang. (Cristina closes the back of the gown so nothing shows and turns back to Alex.) Cristina: In your dreams, Evil Spawn. (Cristina's Room. They are now doing her charts for rounds. She is lying in bed. Her mother Helen is also there sitting on a couch, doing some sewing beside a window) Meredith: Cristina Yang. Post-op day 3 from a unilateral salpingectomy. Cristina: And ready to get back to work. Helen: Is she? Cristina: I'm taking solids and my pain is controlled with oral meds. I'm ready. Helen: Didn't the nurse say this morning you had a fever? Cristina: Mother. Bailey: Cristina, did you have a fever? Cristina: Temp spiked to 101 last night. Big deal. George: She worked 2 shifts last month with a 102 degree flu. Cristina: Yes. Exactly, George. Thank you. Bailey: And we appreciate your dedication but you're staying in bed until it normalizes. Helen: I keep telling her there's more to life than surgery and career. Cristina: Mother, go upholster something. Bailey: Look, I need you to relax, shut up and get better. You're a patient this week so you can be a doctor next week. Understand? (They move out of the room. Cristina pulls Meredith back) Cristina: Mer. Mer. You cannot leave me alone with her. I'm flying over the cuckoo's nest here. You have to save me. Meredith: You need time to heal. Cristina: I'm healed. (Meredith walks out of the room) I'm healed! (Cristina looks annoyed, looks at her mother and then looks away) Oh, god. (Ellis Grey's room. Dr. Bailey and her group walk in. Ellis is lying in a pink robe in bed) Bailey: Ok, Dr. O'Malley, you're presenting. George: Ok, Dr. Grey is post-op day 3 from a tumor resection. Ellis: Wrong, wrong, wrong. He's got it all wrong. George: She's... Ellis: It's not asthma, it's GERD. He needs a Nissen fundoplication. I don't want her in the room. Meredith: Mom! Ellis: She's a child and I won't have her on my team. Bailey: We'll meet you outside, Dr. Grey. (Meredith walks out a little stunned) (Derek is arriving at an elevator when he sees Meredith walking by) Derek: You skipping rounds? Meredith: Avoiding mother. Derek (he stops her): Meredith... Meredith: You've got a wife. Derek: Yes. Meredith: You're life is complicated. Derek: Yes. Meredith: I don't need complicated. I have complicated all on my own. Derek: Yes. Meredith: Stop saying yes. Derek (smiling): I'm trying not to make any sudden movements. Meredith: You think this is funny? Derek: Addison's leaving. She doesn't have any more patients in this hospital. There's no reason for her to be here. Meredith: No reason? Derek: None whatsoever. (He moves in and strokes her cheek. Addison appears suddenly) Addison: Well now, isn't this cozy? Can I join in or are you not into threesomes? Meredith: I have to go. (She walks away) Derek: Meredith ... (to Addison) You really are Satan. You realize that right? If Satan were to take physical form, he'd be you. Everywhere, all the time. Addison: I am so not Satan. Derek: How come you haven't got on your broomstick and gone back to New York, where you belong? Addison: Stop being petty. Derek: Stop being an adulterous bitch. (Elevator opens but they don't get on) Addison: You know, you are going forgive me eventually, right? I mean you can't just ... I mean there was a time when you thought of me as your best friend? Derek: There was a time where I thought you were the love of my life. Things change. (Addison sighs and walks back to the button to get another elevator and presses it. She pulls out papers out of her bag and hands them to Derek.) Derek (looking at the papers): Divorce papers. (We can now see Meredith looking from the stairs nearby watching Derek & Addison) Addison: You're lawyer said they're ok. I haven't signed them yet. The ball's in your court. If you sign, I'll sign. I'll sign and be on the 1st plane out of here. Derek: I'll sign them immediately. I want you out of here as soon as possible. (Addison looks upset and walks into an open elevator but pops out quickly) Addison: Derek, have you ever thought that, even if I am Satan and an adulterous bitch, that I still might be the love of your life? (She gets back in and the door closes. Derek half nods to himself. Meredith is still watching but he can't see her) (Seattle Scenes) (Cristina's hospital room) (Opens with Cristina making notes in her chart. Dr. Burke looks in and sees no one else is in there, so he walks in. He removes the chart from Cristina. Cristina looks up and sighs) Cristina: It's my chart. Burke: You're the patient. Not the doctor. Act like one. (He looks through her chart) It's been tough finding you alone. Cristina: Yeah? Well ... Burke: How are you doing? Cristina: Well, you have my chart, you tell me. Burke (more forceful): How are you doing? Cristina: I'm fine. Perfectly ok. Burke: I had a right to know. Cristina: Well, now you do. Burke: Cristina (she cuts him off) Cristina: Look. Now you know. It's over. There's nothing for you to deal with. So I don't know what else there really is left to say. Burke: Plenty. For starters you could've come to me (she interrupts again) Cristina: Oh, look. It's my mother. (Helen has just obviously come out of Cristina's bathroom. She walks up to Dr. Burke) Burke: Dr. Preston Burke. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Yang. Helen: Actually it's Rubenstein. Dr. Saul Rubenstein of Beverley Hills? (Dr. Burke smiles and nods in understanding) The oral surgeon? I'm remarried. Been remarried since Cristina was, what? About 3? Cristina: Mom, that's too, too much information, he has other things to do. Helen: You're good-looking. He's good-looking. Why don't you ever bring home a man as good-looking as him? Cristina (quiet): Stop. Helen (laughs): What? Cristina (quiet): Stop talking. Helen: Cristina! (To Dr. Burke) Forgive her. I don't know what I ever did to raise such an unpleasant girl. Cristina (now loud): Oh, me? I'm unpleasant? Burke: Excuse me. (He leaves the room quickly) Cristina: Do you know who that was? That was ... that was my boss! Helen: I only said nice things. Cristina: Why'd you have to call me unpleasant in front of my boss? Helen: Lighten up, please! (Alex & Izzie are walking down a hallway in the hospital) Izzie: Okay I was thinking that maybe we might want to ... you might...Ok, we both have tonight off so... Alex: You are so into me. Izzie: Oh, shut up. Alex: It's sad. The worship. The adoration. Ah, I'm so handsome, I intoxicate you. Izzie: Ok, you know what? Forget it. Alex: Izzie, would you like to go out with me tonight? On a date? You wear something gorgeous, I pay for food... Izzie: Are you making fun of me? Alex: I'm not making fun of you. Izzie: Ok, then. Alex: Good. Izzie: Good. (Dr. Bailey & Meredith enter a patients room. He is in there reading a book) Bailey: I thought I told you I never want to see you again. Man: That's only cause you're too lazy to learn anything more. Bailey (huffs): Dr. Meredith Grey, Jeremiah Tate. He thinks he knows so much cause he was one of my first patient's as an intern. Jeremiah: I knew as much as she did. She was clueless about how to treat cystic fibrosis. A simple cholecystectomy turned into a month-long stay. Bailey: Better not be alleging malpractice. Guy raises about a 100 grand a year for cystic fibrosis, running triathlons. Thinks he's a big sht. Meredith: You run triathlons? Jeremiah: Why not? Bailey: Pain for one. Says here you're finally admitting to feeling a little? Jeremiah: A little. Bailey: How little? Truth. Jeremiah: Oh, enough to keep me awake at night. Had some seizures. Um...too weak to work out. Bailey: Anyone been through here with your CT results? Jeremiah: No. It's probably just my pancreatitis kicking up again. Bailey: All right then. We'll be back. With your results and a plan. (She walks to the door) Huh, where do your parents think you are this time? Jeremiah (he smiles): Hmm. New Jersey. (Dr. Bailey smiles back and leaves the room. Meredith follows) Meredith: What about his parents? Bailey: No, he doesn't like to bother them until he's well or about to get discharged. He understands his reality. He just chooses to ignore it. Denial works for him, Grey. (Alex is looking periodically through each file at the nurses station) Alex: Abdominal pain. Abdominal pain. Perirectal abscess. gn sht wound to head. (He looks confused and pulls out the file completely) Alex (mutters to himself): Where the hell is the GSW to the head? (Calls out loudly) Why wasn't the trauma team called? Hello? Are you people insane? (A nurse comes to Alex) Nurse: There's your gn victim. (She gestures to a waiting room where a guy is sitting reading a magazine looking perfectly okay except for the slight reddish tinge on his forehead) Alex: Him? (Cristina's room where her mother is painting her toe nails red) Helen: I'm redoing the living room in beige silks, I'm thinking. And modern. Very mid-century. And the dining room... Cristina (interrupts): Mother, give me back my toes. (Helen stops and closes the nail polish bottle) Helen: Okay. I change the subject. (She moves to put it away) Who's the father? Cristina: Mid-century did you say? Helen: Someone you work with, right? Was it just for sex? You made such a point of not forming attachments. Cristina: 20 minutes. Just give ... All I want is 20 minutes of peace and quiet. Helen: The daughter I raised would appreciate her mother's help. Cristina: The daughter you raised is begging for you to go. Now! Helen: I didn't have to come here. You know I'm very busy. Cristina: Yeah, I know. I know. Redecorating your house. (Helen huffs. They look at each other.) Well, can you get me a mocha latte, please? Helen: A non-fat one. Cristina: No. A fat one! (Helen walks out of the room clutching her purse) (Another hospital room where Alex is giving the GSW guy a physical exam) Alex: You're walking ... you're talking ...there's no exit wound. This mark here looks more like a burn. Man: I'm telling you, I sht my self. Pulled the trigger while I was cleaning my .22. I thought the clip was out. If you're thinking su1c1de, don't. People make mistakes. I made a mistake. (sounds resigned) And now I'm paying for it. (sighs) But I did sh*t myself. (Alex and Nurse look like they don't believe him) (Cristina is dressed in her blue scrubs at the nurse's station looking through patient charts) Tyler: Where's your IV? Cristina: I've taken solids. I HEP-locked it. Tyler: On whose orders? Cristina: Mine. Tyler: Okay. (Searches for her chart) Yang. (Looks through her chart) How about this order: "Bed rest, out of bed to chair, bathroom privileges." Nothing about stealing charts at the nurses station. Cristina: Ok, you know what (signals to man pushing a wheelchair) Hey, hey! Give me that. (Sits down) There, satisfied? I'm "out of bed to chair." Tyler: I'm telling your intern on you. Cristina: Meredith? Tyler: Yeah. Cristina (mockingly) Ooh, I'm so scared. (She wheels off with a patient's chart) (Ellis Grey is sitting in her room going through some papers. George comes into the room) George: Dr. Grey, how are you doing? Ellis: You here, good. I need the results of the barium esophagram or the EGD. (George looks stunned) And you have neither. Ok, no worries. I'll be here when you get back. (Richard comes to the door now) Richard: So today you're her intern. Well, that's better than being her husband. George: Well, that's a matter of opinion. Richard: Good morning, Ellis. Ellis: Richard, good to see you. (To George) I need those labs immediately. George (softly): Chief? Um ... she's not a surgical patient anymore. And I'd really like to get back to the OR. So, ah ... do you think I could hand her off to someone else? Richard (softly): O'Malley, Alzheimer's causes her reality to shift depending on situation or her mood. She needs sab right now. That's why I'm depending on you to keep a special eye on her. George: Yes ... I know sir ... but, you know it doesn't seem fair to me. Ellis: I need those studies yesterday. Richard: You heard the doctor. Get moving. (Cut to Kalpana's room where she has just taken a pill. Cristina outside in the hall sitting in her wheelchair witnesses this) Cristina: I saw that. (Kalpana swallows) I saw you take that pill. Kalpana: Oh it's, it's my pill. You know ... the pill. Cristina (looking over her chart): It's ah not in your chart and you're supposed to tell us the meds you're on. (Izzie sees Cristina and starts walking over) Kalpana: You're not my doctor. You shouldn't even be here. Izzie: She's right. You shouldn't be here. Cristina: I saw her take unauthorized medication. Kalpana: I'm on the pill and I had grapefruit juice this morning. Since the juice inhibits enzymes involved in the metabolism of OCPs, I thought I'd avoid the interaction by taking it two hours after my meal. Izzie: She's has a doctorate in neuropharmacology, Cristina. Cristina: Well, Izzie, I don't see oral contra... Kalpana (looking weak and in pain): Guys... Izzie(interrupt): Ok, so now you will. Will you just go back to bed and stop poaching my patients? (They start fighting) (Kalpana's heart monitor starts racing. Kalpana falls to the floor unconscious. Izzie rushes to her.) Cristina: She's in V-FIB. Izzie: Call the code. (Izzie thumps Kalpana's chest) Nurse: No code? Izzie: Not anymore. Can you help us get her back into bed? Cristina (struggles to get back into her wheelchair): I'll help, just give me a minute. (Male nurse moves to help Izzie) Izzie: Would you just go back to bed? Please, seriously, go. Cristina (struggling to reach Kalpana's chart): Oh, god. You know, Izzie, if she's on OCPs, can we mark it down, ok? Izzie: Yeah. (Radiology viewing room where Meredith and Dr. Bailey are looking over Jeremiah's x-rays put up on an x-ray board) Meredith: Jeremiah's got a mass in his midepigastrium. Diffused enlargement of the pancreas. That, with his hypoglycemic seizures ... Bailey: He's going to need an exploratory laparotomy. But, despite his triathlons, his lungs still make me hesitant to cut. Meredith: What are we going to do? Bailey: I don't know that yet. (Addison walks into the room and up to the x-rays) Addison: Doctors. Bailey: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. Addison: How old is he? Bailey: He's 26. (Meredith is looking annoyed that Addison is still here) Addison: Survivor, huh? Bailey: And them some. My patient for at least 5 years. I'm not gonna lose him now. Addison: You planning a laparotomy? Bailey: Yeah, but his lungs. Addison: Hmm. You know, I think I could help you with this. I've seen one case like this before in a 9 year old. We ended up having to do a total pancreotectomy. Bailey: I'd be honored to take any help you can give me. Meredith: You're a neonatal specialist. What ... uh ... this isn't your area. (Dr. Bailey looks annoyed. She shakes her head at Meredith) I'm just saying that... Addison (interrupts): I did 2 years genetic research in cystic fibrosis. I've pretty much seen it all, Dr. Grey. Meredith: Oh. (Elevator outside nurse's station. Ellis Grey is standing outside it in her robe. She walks into the elevator. Derek and Meredith are walking down the stairs together.) Derek: Just because she offered her services doesn't mean she intends to stay. Meredith: Well, what does it mean? Because it seems to me ... Derek (interrupts): It means that she's a good doctor. Meredith (half laughs sarcastically): Oh ho ho. Why are you suddenly defending her? Derek: I'm not. Meredith, she gave me divorce papers. She filed. Meredith: Oh. Well, that's good. Derek: All I have to do is sign, and I'm free ... We're free. Meredith: Is there anything to think about? Derek: No, of course not. I have to read through them, sign, then Addison's on the next plane out of here. (CT viewing room where Alex and CT Tech are looking at the films of the GSW guy. Well the CT guy is looking; Alex is flipping through a magazine) CT Tech: You say he got sht in the head? Alex: He says he got sht in the head. I say it's a mental defect. (A blonde woman in her mid-40s enters the room) Woman: Um, hi. Alex: Ma'am, you can't be in here. Woman: No, I'm looking for Samuel Linden, he ... (she sees GSW guy getting into the CT machine) Oh, my god, Samuel. Well how, how, how bad is it? Alex: Are you his wife? Mrs. Linden: Yes, for 21 years. Just tell me how he is. (Alex gets up to meet her) Alex: Fine, for a man who says he sht himself. Mrs. Linden (adamant): He sht himself! He was cleaning his gn. What is wrong with you people? Alex (tries to get her to leave): We'll know everything when we finish his CT. This is a restricted area, ma'am. You have to ... Mrs. Linden (interrupts): No! My husband has a bllet in his head! Alex: Then we'll find it. If you could wait outside I'll be with you soon as we know something, I promise. (He escorts her out and slides the door shut) (Elevator where Bailey is standing by herself, the door is about to close when Derek pushes it open and steps in) Derek (angry): Of all the fine doctors in the city, you accept a consult from Addison Shepherd. Bailey: Montgomery-Shepherd, isn't it? Derek: The point is she should be on her way home. (He stares at her) You're trying to drive me crazy aren't you? (Bailey smiles annoyed and pulls the red elevator stop button. A loud ringing starts) Derek (backing against the elevator wall): Oh hang on don't do this. Bailey (loud & upset): You think this (Derek groans) has something to do with you? You think I'm even thinking about you and your romantic problems? I'm trying to help a patient very near and dear to my heart. And if consulting with your wife...your ex...your mistress whatever it is that she becomes, if that's the thing I have to do to save my patient, then I'm damn well gonna do it. Derek (moves from the wall looking slightly confused): I understand ... and I deserved that. It's just that... Bailey (makes a face): Just ...you look. You have put yourself between two very fine women and you looking for an easy way out and you wanna use me,Aad the hospital and... somebody to make the decision for you, and it's not gonna happen. (Derek still looks confused) She pushes the stop button off.[/i]) Derek: Could I just, could I just say a couple of things? Bailey (puts her hand up in a no gesture): Just... (Derek looks at her but doesn't say anything.) (Kalpana's room where she is back in bed. Dr. Burke, Izzie and the male nurse are there as well) Burke: You scared us a little there. (To Izzie) How's her workup coming? (Male nurse leaves) Izzie: Uh, electrolytes are within normal limits, Urine tox was negative and EKG's fine. Tilt test is scheduled for noon. Oh, and she's on contraceptives. Burke: So? Kalpana: That's what I said. That other doctor made such a big deal of it. Izzie: She didn't tell us before so I documented it in her med list. Burke: What other doctor? Izzie: Cristina. She was wandering the halls. (Dr. Burke nods and smiles) Burke: Fine. Take her down for an echo. Kalpana: An echo? What about cardioversion or ablation? Won't I need a pacemaker or a permanent internal defibrillator? Burke: Although it would be unusual for rheumatic heart disease to cause ventricular dysrhythmias we still gotta check your valves. (Dr. Burke leaves the room. Kalpana looks after him) Izzie: I thought your doctorate was in neuropharmacology, not medicine. Kalpana: It is. (Izzie nods and leaves) (Meredith and Cristina at their hangout in the abandoned hallway. They're both sitting on an empty bed. Cristina is looking over Kalpana's chart with medical books at her side) Meredith: Addison gave Derek divorce papers, which is good. I mean she's still here, being Addison, but it's not like I'm jealous or anything. Cristina (looking at the chart): That's odd. Meredith: That's odd I'm not jealous? Cristina: No, you have every right to be jealous. It's your territory and she's peeing all over it. (Looks back at the chart) What's odd is Burke's patient. She's been in 4 other hospitals this year. You know something's not right. Meredith: You seem awfully interested in Burke's patient. Cristina: This has nothing to do with Burke. Meredith: Cristina you lost a fallopian tube, a baby and a boyfriend all in one day. You have the right to be upset. Cristina: And you're losing Mc Dreamy to his perfect wife. You have a right to be jealous. Meredith: I did not lose Mc Dreamy. Divorce papers, remember? And I'm not jealous. Cristina: And I'm not upset. Meredith: You really should be in your room. Cristina: Ok, if the situation was reversed, would you wanna spend time with your mother in a confined room with one window? Meredith: Do you think we're like them? Our mothers? (Cristina gives her a look) (Meredith is standing in her mother's room. The bed is empty. Ellis isn't there. The male nurse comes in and stops when he doesn't see Ellis there either.) Tyler: Uh, where's your mom? Meredith: Exactly. Where is my mother? (George comes in) George: Where's your mother? Meredith: Funny you should ask! George: Oh, crap. (He leaves the room) (CT viewing room. CT Tech is looking at Samuel's scans. Alex is writing stuff.) CT Tech: Oh, man, you are not going to believe this. (Alex looks up. It's obvious on the scan that a bllet is inside the guy's head at the edge of his skull) Alex: No. It can't be. The guy was reading a freaking magazine. Ellis: It's definitely a bllet. (Alex & CT Tech turn around. Ellis has entered into the room unannounced dressed in dark blue scrubs) One that tracked clear through his head. Now are you people just going to sit here or you gonna get him into surgery? (Alex and CT guy look at each other) (Ellis is pointing to the CT scans explaining stuff to Alex) Ellis: Here's the mssile track. As you can see it doesn't even cross the midline. (CT Tech is standing at the door. Derek walks up to him) CT Tech: She's over there. Ellis: He's lucky. This guy may be even better talking to. (Dr. Shepard and CT guy walk in) He'll need debridement of the entrance wound and repair the dura, but we won't need to remove the bllet. (George comes in with a wheelchair) Derek: That's an excellent diagnosis, Dr. Grey. I'm Dr. Shepherd, I'm your neuro consult. George: Dr. Grey, they need you upstairs. (Ellis gets up) Ellis (to Derek): You'll book the OR and staff? Alex: I'm on it. (Ellis gets into the wheelchair. Derek looks at Alex disapprovingly. Alex shrugs. George comes up to the screen with the CT scan) George: Unbelievable. (Richard has come to the room as well) Richard: O'Malley. Can you not handle this, doctor? George (walks back to Ellis, muttering): I can handle a lot of things. Wheelchairs. Come on, Dr. Grey. (He pulls the wheelchair out of the doorway) (Jeremiah's room where Dr. Bailey, Addison and Meredith are explaining the surgery to Jeremiah) Addison: We won't know for sure until we go in there, but it looks like that I'm going to have to take out your pancreas and re-route your intestines. Jeremiah (to Dr. Bailey): Did you tell her that my lungs don't do well with anesthesia? Bailey: Don't I always have your back? Addison: Your kidney function is decreasing rapidly and I'm afraid you're gonna go into multi-system organ failure if we don't operate. Jeremiah: If I say no? Bailey: There's no guarantees, Jeremiah. You know that. It's gonna be a long, hard surgery and put a lot of stress on your body. Jeremiah (smiles): Yeah, but I'm me. Bailey (smiles back): But you're you. Jeremiah: So if we don't operate, I die. And if ... we do operate, I may die. Addison: Basically, yes. Jeremiah: Well, I like those odds. And 26 years with this disease is awesome. And that's the reality. So if I get lucky ... great. And if I don't ... (he looks at Dr. Bailey and takes her hand in his) it's been sweet. Bailey: It's gonna stay sweet. (She throws his hand back, he shrugs smiling) (Derek & Alex are with Samuel who's lying on hospital bed now in a communal room with his wife standing next to him holding his hand) Derek: You understand that we'll need to do a psych evaluation: Mrs. Linden: How many times do we have to tell you? He wasn't trying to kll himself. It was an accident. Samuel: They're just trying to do their job, hon. Mrs. Linden: Well ... No their job is to make you better. Derek: Where were you when the gn went off? Mrs. Linden: I was in the next room. And I heard the sht. And it was awful. Samuel (looking at his wife): It's over now. Alex: Why didn't you call 911? Mrs. Linden: Because he was only unconscious for a moment. And then ... then he was walking and talking and... Derek (interrupts): You're going to have a give a report to the police. Samuel: Police? Mrs. Linden: What, what do we need to talk the police about? Alex: We have to report any gn wounds to the police. It's the law. (Derek and Alex walk off. Mrs. Linden strokes her husband's cheek and mouths it'll be okay. He turns his head away slightly) (Empty hallway with hospital beds. Cristina is now lying down still with Kalpana's chart. Her wheelchair is next to her with a dictionary on it. George comes in eating a banana and his lunch bag in his hand) George: You're officially AWOL, you know? Cristina: I'm working. Trying to figure out what's going on with the crazy woman on four. George: You are the crazy woman on four. Cristina: I made a break of freedom. Will you hand me that dictionary? (George hands it over.) George: You have a better patient than me and you don't even have a patient. He sits down in Cristina's wheelchair[/i]) George: Meredith's got a CF case. Alex's got the gn wound. Izzie's got the mystery arrhythmias. I'm not a nanny! I'm a surgeon. A cutter. But no, I'm getting fake labs for fake patients so she can do a fake surgery. (George empties his lunch bag roughly onto the bed. Realization dawns on Cristina) Cristina (to herself): She's faking it. George: It's real to her. It's Alzheimer's. (Cristina quickly gets off the bed.) Cristina: The missionary. Kalpana... Ah! (She hits George on the side of the head and walks off) Oh, god. Thank you! George: Ow! Uncalled for. (Nurse's station where Izzie is searching through patient charts. Cristina appears with the Kalpana's chart) Cristina: Hey, Izzie, how have her studies been? Izzie (interrupts): Hey! I've been looking for that everywhere. (Takes chart off Cristina and starts writing in it) Cristina (continues): Negative, right? Izzie: Oh! The echo tests showed mild mitral stenosis, the tilt test was negative. We're doing EP studies. Cristina: I can tell you what's wrong with her without sticking electrodes in her heart. (Cristina takes a seat in a desk chair) Izzie (disbelieving): Really. Just by the chart? Cristina: No, from the pill she took. Izzie: They were contraceptives, Cristina! Why are you so obsessed with this? Just go back to bed! Cristina: I think she's doing this to herself. Izzie (disbelieving): You think she's inducing ventricular arrhythmias? She'd have to be crazy to do... Cristina (interrupts): No, no, no. She'd have to have Munchausen's. Izzie: Okay wait. You think she's secretly ingesting something to produce real symptoms? (Dr. Burke has come in behind Cristina searching for a chart)... Seriously? Cristina: Yep. Just run it by Burke and tell me what he thinks. Izzie(handing the chart to Dr. Burke): Tell him yourself. He's standing right behind you. (Cristina looks up) Dr. Burke. (Izzie walks off. Dr. Burke looks at Cristina. Cristina sighs and puts her hand over her face) (Alex walks away from Samuel who's still lying in bed with his wife sitting next to him. He's walking to Derek who's going over some files sitting at a nurse's station) Derek: Where are we? Alex: Oh, OR. 2 in 30 minutes. He's prepped, transport's on the way. (They hear loud whispered yelling coming from Samuel & Mrs. Linden and look over) Mrs. Linden: Do you understand that? 21 years! Derek: What's that all about? Alex: I haven't got a clue. (Samuel & Mrs. Linden) Samuel: How many times do I have to tell you? I'm sorry. I love you, I forgive you. Mrs. Linden: You cheated on me! You cheated on me! And you do not get to play the martyr here! Samuel: I've got a bllet in my head! Mrs. Linden: And that doesn't make us even! Samuel: You sht me! (Derek and Alex) Derek: I think we need to get the police up here right now. (Alex nods and Derek picks up a phone) (Cristina and Dr. Burke talking in the office behind the nurse's station) Cristina: I mean, she obviously loves the patient role. She practically lives in hospitals. And ... and, and we're like an imaginary family to her because her really family blows her off to go take care of other people. ... And, and I saw her take something. Burke: It's not enough. We have to rule out everything else. Everything physical. Cristina: She even lied about her job. She's a pharmacy tech, not a PhD. Burke: So she's a liar. I've been lied to before. (Burke sits down. Cristina gives him a look.) Cristina: Hey, we're not talking about us here. Burke: Maybe we should be. Cristina: I didn't lie! Burke: You withheld with truth. How was I ... Cristina (interrupts): Ok, you know what? I distinctly remember you breaking things off with me. And you didn't seem so upset about it. And this? (Indicates herself and him) This is, this is not a relationship. This is not real. Burke (interrupts): Cristina! Cristina (starts walking out of the room): Okay, and, and so what's with the big display of fake hurt and drama? (She opens the door) Burke: Cristina! Cristina: I'm supposed to be in bed. (She leaves & closes the door) Burke: Cristina! (Burke is left looking frustrated) (Samuel is being wheeled away to the OR. Mrs. Linden is standing where his bed used to be. Derek leaves Samuel and looks over and makes eye contact with Meredith. The cops come to where Mrs. Linden is, Derek goes over there.) Derek: Officers, thanks for coming. Officer: Ma'am, why don't you have a seat? We need to ask you a few questions. Mrs. Linden: Oh, I, I, of course. (Meredith is at the Nurse's station looking at a chart. Addison comes up behind her looking through some files.) Addison: Well, nothing like a domestic dispute to liven up a pre-op, huh? (Meredith gives her a look. They both walk over to a bed where Jeremiah and Dr. Bailey are. Jeremiah is looking at some forms) Jeremiah: Where do I sign? Bailey: Here, for consent. And here for DNR and no extraordinary measures. (Jeremiah signs) Bailey: Good. Ok, lift up for me. (Jeremiah lifts up in obvious pain as Dr. Bailey uses her stethoscope to listen to his heart bat) Jeremiah: You should probably call my parents. Bailey: Call them yourself when you walk out of here. (George is walking into Ellis Grey's room) George: Dr. Grey, I have those labs ... (He stops when he sees her bed empty again. The male nurse walks in behind him) Tyler (amused): Oh, no you didn't. You lost her again? Again? George: I am a surgeon. A surgeon. Tyler (chuckles): Yeah, well... You won't be when Dr. Webber finds out you lost Ellis Grey again. (George turns around looking a little scared. The male nurse laughs and walks away) (O.R. where Dr. Burke and Izzie are performing some sort of test on Kalpana) Burke: We're using three different catheters. Why are we doing that, Dr. Stevens? Izzie: Programmed electrical stimulation maps the heart's electrical system to find the focus of the irregular... Intern (interrupts): Um, doctors. Sorry to interrupt. Burke: Yes. Intern: Her urine's blue. Burke: What? (Intern holds up a bag holding Kalpana's urine which sure enough is blue) Izzie: Why is her urine blue? (Burke sighs, realizing something) (Richard is walking down the hall frustrated and angry. George is rushing following behind) Richard: She says she has a surgery scheduled with Dr. Shepherd? George: I turned my back for 5 minutes. Richard (angry): Why did you turn your back at all? I told you to take care of her! (He calms down and speaks quietly) Just get out of here. You wanna find a hot surgery then find one. You're free. I'll take care of her. (Richard walks off through some double doors. George looking upset goes back the way he came, opening a door roughly) (OR #2 with Derek and Alex performing surgery on Samuel) Alex: This is one sick bastard. We should flip him over, and give him a spine. Derek: Hold back on the retractor, Dr. Karev. (Speaks to another intern) Little suction bogie. Bogie: Suction. Alex: Covering for his wife after she sht him? Derek: He did cheat on her. Alex: And that guilt's worth a bllet in the head? Derek: Relationships are built on sacrifice. Alex: Not that kind of sacrifice. Derek: Hmm, I don't know. Sometimes a bllet's worth it. (Scrub room where Ellis Grey is cleaning her fingernails. Richard walks in decked out in dark blue scrubs as well) Ellis (smiling): Ah, Richard, I thought you'd never get here. Look, the OR's empty, I have a little time before my surgery. (She moves in and kisses him. He kisses her back. He eventually pulls away. Ellis looks extremely confused) Ellis: I don't think I'm supposed to be here. Richard: No. (He cups her face with his hand. She puts her hand over his and sighs) No, you're not. Come on I'll take you back to your room. (Ellis smiles and nods. Richard helps her walk out of the room) (OR with Dr. Bailey, Addison and Meredith performing surgery on Jeremiah) Addison: I need more traction. Dr. Grey? Bailey (to Meredith): Here give me some suction there. (Meredith gives suction) Bailey: Now Grey, retract the duodenum. Good. (To another Doctor) How's he doing? Doctor: Harder to ventilate and no urine output since we started. Addison (shakes her head): He's shutting down. Bailey: Did you increase his peak pressures? Doctor: Any higher, I blow his lungs. (Monitor beeps) Bradycardia. Pushing 1 of atropine. (Injects atropine) Addison: Try ventilating him manually, see if he starts coming back up. (Doctor starts pushing on a bag) Bailey (to Addison): Did we miss any bleeders? Addison (shakes her head): The surgical field is clear. Meredith: Agonal rhythm. (Monitor is beeping faster) Bailey: Any pulse with that? Doctor: No carotid. Bailey: Okay starting CPR. (She hands over her suction pipe and starts performing CPR) Push one of EPI. Addison: No extraordinary measures, Dr. Bailey. He's DNR. Bailey: No this is just good medicine. (The others stop what they're doing) (Kalpana's room with Dr. Burke and Izzie) Kalpana: Blue urine? Burke: A second drug screen was positive for amitriptyline, which, I'm sure you know, causes ventricular arrhythmias. Izzie: You knew it wouldn't show up on a routine drug screen, but I'm guessing you didn't realize it would turn your urine blue. Kalpana: I didn't do this to myself. You have to believe me. I'm sick! I'm sick. I have something ... Burke (interrupts): No. You're just deceiving yourself. Manufacturing things that really aren't there, seeing only what you want to see. Wasting our time, our resources, and throwing away your own life. Your illness is in your head, Kalpana. We will be transferring you to psych. (Jeremiah's O.R. Dr. Bailey is still performing CPR) Bailey: Come on! Come on, don't give up. Come on. Meredith: You're getting tired. Let me take over, Dr. Bailey. (Dr. Bailey moves away and pulls Meredith to where she was standing. Meredith starts performing CPR) Addison: Dr. Bailey, his intestines are cyanotic. There is no blood circulating. Bailey: It's been shunted to his brain where he needs it. (She looks at Meredith) You call those compressions? (She moves Meredith out of the way and resumes CPR. Meredith and Addison make eye contact) Bailey: Fight it. Come on. (Addison shakes her head. Everyone has stopped what they're doing.) Bailey: Why isn't anyone moving? Whose recording? Addison: It's been ten minutes since we've had a perfusing rhythm. (She tries to stop Dr. Bailey. Dr. Bailey shrugs her off. The monitor flat lines) Addison: It's your call, Dr. Bailey. Bailey (still continues CPR): 1,2,3,4. ... 1,2,3,4 ... 1 ... (She stops. The only sound is the monitor flat lined. Dr Bailey pulls of her mask.) Bailey: Asystole. (She looks at the clock) Time of death: 19:26. (She walks out of the O.R trying not to cry) (Dr. Bailey cleaning her hands furiously in the room adjoining the O.R. She stops when she sees some doctors covering up Jeremiah's body. Addison walks in and starts washing her hands. Dr. Bailey resumes washing her hands. Meredith walks in. Dr. Bailey leaves the room) Addison (sighs): It's hard to accept the end when you're too close. (She looks down at the wedding ring she has put back on her finger after cleaning her hands. Meredith notices this. Addison sees her looking) Addison: Look, I don't want someone who doesn't want me, Meredith. But if there's the slightest chance that he does, I'm not leaving Seattle. (Addison leaves the room. Meredith looks after her) (Derek and Alex with Samuel in a post-recovery ward) Samuel: What did she tell them? Derek: That you cheated on her. That she was drunk and you were cleaning your gn in the kitchen. Samuel: I'm not gonna press charges. Alex: It doesn't matter, she confessed. asault the first degree. Samuel: They arrested her? Alex: Man, you should be grateful. Samuel: You know what I am? I'm stupid. Nothing will make you feel more stupid than cheating on the woman you love. You don't know what you're missing. (Derek ponders this. Alex does too and makes eye contact with Izzie who's putting a chart away at the nurse's station. She smiles and walks away.) (Cristina in her room wearing her own silk dressing gown. Her mother is back sitting by the window. Cristina is up standing pacing the room) Helen: Your latte is by your bed, and I'm pretty sure it's cold. Cristina (sighs): I don't need it. Helen: You should be in bed. Cristina: Stop it. I'm fine. Ok? My brain is fine. My body is fine. I'm fine. Helen: I don't know why I came. Cristina (annoyed): Then why did you? You know I'm ... You know just stop it. I don't ... I'm sorry I'm not that person. I'm sorry, I don't, I don't need you here taking care of me. (Izzie walks in smiling) Cristina: Well? Izzie: You were right. Kalpana definitely suffers from Munchausen's. Cristina (turns to her mother): See I was right. (speaks to Izzie) I was right. (speaks to herself, closing her eyes) I was right. (She keeps her eyes closed but her face starts screwing up) Cristina (starts crying): I was right. I was ... (Izzie stops smiling and looks at Cristina as if she's grown a second head) I was right. Oh...I'm, I'm (lets out a sob) I'm right. I'm (sobs) I'm right. I'm ... (Seattle scenes) (SGH hallway) (Richard is talking with Alex) Richard: You took the clinical skills section of your medical board exams after most interns, so the results are only now coming out. I got a call from USMLE this morning. (Realization dawns on Alex) Alex: Oh. So you're, you're saying ... Richard: Karev, you're still an MD. You still get to practice medicine. The hospital grants you 4 months to retake the exam. You study it, you pass it, you put it behind you. One misstep doesn't affect your career. Alex (nods): Right, right, right. Thanks. Thanks. (Richard begins to walk away) Alex: What happens uh if I take the exam for a second time and I don't pass? Richard: You will no longer be a surgical resident at Seattle Grace. Failing again is not an option. (Richard walks away) (Derek is sitting by himself with his divorce papers. He is struggling to sign them) (Cristina's room where she is sobbing loudly on her bed. Meredith comes running in. Izzie, George and Helen are in there) Meredith (panicked): What's going on? Cristina: I can't stop. I can't. I can't stop ...(sobs) Izzie: Crying. She can't stop crying. Meredith: I can see that! What did you guys do to her? Izzie: Nothing! George: She's going to dehydrate. Cristina do you want some water? (Cristina shakes her no, still sobbing) Cristina: No, no. (Meredith moves in to hug her) George & Izzie: NO! (George pulls Meredith away. Cristina has shied away from Meredith) Izzie: I already tried that. It just made it worse. Helen: I knew she'd break sooner or later. Just a matter of time. Cristina: I will kll her! (Meredith starts escorting Helen out of the room) Meredith: Ma'am. Helen: I'm her mother! Meredith: We don't do well with mothers here. Why don't you leave and come back later. (George tentatively hands Cristina a tissue. Meredith walks back in) Meredith: Cristina ... Cristina (still sobbing): Make, make it stop. Make it sto-opp. (Continues crying. George tries to hand her another tissue) Cristina (yells): Somebody sedate me! (George runs out of the room. Cristina continues sobbing) MVO: Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. (Ellis Grey's room. Richard is standing over her. He finds a soft armed restraint) MVO: And when the damn bursts all you can do is swim. (George is watching through a window) MVO: The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. (George walks in) MVO: We can only lie to ourselves for so long. (George takes the restraint from Richard and places it on Ellis's arm himself. Richard watches him. Ellis looks at Richard.) (Kalpana's room where she is by herself) MVO: We are tired. We are scared. Denying it doesn't change the truth. (Dr. Bailey on the mezzanine in the hospital. She makes a phone call on her cell) Bailey: Hi. Mrs. Tate? It's Miranda. (She nods, her voice breaks) Miranda Bailey. I'm calling about Jeremiah. (She starts crying) I'm so sorry. (Cristina's room where she is now lying on her bed, silent tears still drip down her face. Her mother is entering things into her phone. Dr. Burke stops by dressed in a suit ready to go home. He enters the room and Cristina looks at him. He looks at her mother who stops what she's doing and stares. He puts down his stuff on a chair, smiling at her mother. She smiles back. He moves to stroke Cristina's hair) Helen: She doesn't want to be touched. (Dr. Burke pulls away and looks at Cristina whose trying not to cry. He takes off his jacket and gets into the bed next to her. He holds her in his arms as she starts to cry again.) Burke: Ssh. Ssh. (He pulls her closer and kisses her forehead) MVO: Sooner or later, we have to put aside our denial ... and face the world head on g*n's blazing. (Alex has just entered Joe's bar. Izzie is waiting for him looking absolutely gorgeous. He still seems upset about the news Richard gave him) Izzie: Hi. Alex: Hey. Izzie: You look great. (She moves into to kiss his cheek but he moves away) Alex: Thanks. Izzie (smiling): Are you okay? Alex (abrupt): Yeah, you ready to go. Izzie (losing the smile): Yeah. You just ... you don't seem like yourself. Alex: No, ah look...We've got dinner reservations so we should go, so ah ... let's go. Izzie: Okay. (Alex goes out the door. Izzie looking upset grabs her purse and follows him. Meredith is taking off her coat and Derek putting his briefcase on a chair. They're taking a seat at a high table.) MVO: Denial. It's not just a river in Egypt. It's a freaking ocean. Meredith: I'm glad we're doing this. Derek: Me too. Want a drink? Meredith: Yes. (Derek knocks over his briefcase off the chair.) Oh. Derek: I've got it. Meredith (bends over): I'll get it. (Derek gets his brief case. Meredith picks up his divorce papers which have fallen out. She looks at them. He has not signed them) MVO: So how do you keep from drowning in it? (Meredith looks at Derek and he looks down. Meredith continues to stare at him.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x04 - Deny, Deny, Deny"}	foreverdreaming
2007 GREY'S ANATOMY 2x05: Bring The Pain Original Airdate: 10/23/2005 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Mark Tinker (Seattle Scenes) (Izzie and Alex, outside of the house) MVO: Pain comes in all forms. Izzie (cold and sarcastic): I had a good time. Really. Thank you. It was the perfect evening. Best date ever. Whatever. Alex: Izzie ... Izzie: You know, I especially liked the part where you treated me like crap the entire night. That was fun. Alex: I had a good time. Izzie (confused): Really? Alex: Yeah. (They move into kiss) MVO: The small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain. The normal pains we live with every day. (Alex pulls away) Alex: I gotta go. (Izzie is left with a look that says unbelievable. Alex walks out the door) Izzie (yells): Seriously? Seriously!?!? (She slams the door shut) MVO: Then there's the kind of pain you can't ignore. (Izzie comes storming into George's bedroom. She flicks on the light switch) Izzie (loud): Seriously? (Izzie enters George's room waking him) MVO: A level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else. Izzie: Move over. (He rolls over) George (sleepily): I'm sleeping! Izzie: Oh, shut it. George (rubbing his eyes and still groggy): Shut ... MVO: Makes the rest of the world fade away. (Derek and Meredith, outside the house) Meredith: I don't want to have this conversation again. Derek: Meredith... (Meredith opens the doors) Meredith: You didn't sign the divorce papers. Fine. I get it. End of discussion. (They both walk in) Derek: Meredith. Meredith (yells): What?!? (He just stands there) MVO: Until all we can think about is how much we hurt. Derek: Oh ... I usually just say "Meredith" and then you yell at me. I haven't thought past that point. (Meredith looks pissed) I actually didn't have anything planned. MVO: How we manage our pain is up to us. (She hits him with her purse) Derek: Hey. What is with that? Hey stop it. Ow. Meredith (yells): Seriously?!?! Seriously?!?! (Meredith goes into George's room) Meredith (loud): Seriously! (George rolls over) George: This is a very small bed. (George is lying on the bed between Meredith and Izzie) Meredith: He's a brain surgeon. Izzie: I look fantastic! I shaved my legs! Meredith: He's a brain surgeon. How can he be so brainless? (George sighs) Izzie Hello? Seriously! Meredith: Seriously! (He pats both of their shoulders) George: Shh. Sleep. (The power goes out) MVO: Pain. We anaesthetize...ride it out, embrace it, ignore it... (Cristina enters in the pouring rain, soaked) MVO: And for some of us, the best way to manage pain is to just push through it. (Dr. Bailey is in the locker room doorway) Bailey: You're dripping. Cristina: I'm back. I just wanna make that clear. I'm back. I'm ready to work. (Addison walks up) Addison: Has any one seen Dr. Shepherd, this morning? Bailey: His name is on the OR board. He should be here somewhere. (Addison walks off) Cristina: I'm good. I'm ready to scrub in. I'm 100% on top of my game. Bailey: You just got discharged. Pace your self. (Izzie looks at Alex) Cristina: I'm paced. I'm paced. Bailey: Mmm hmm. Rounds people. (They start walking out. Alex stops Izzie.) Alex: What? You're not talking to me anymore? Izzie: Ok, what happened last night? What is going on with you? Alex: I'm fine. What's your problem? Izzie (huffs): Fine. You know what Alex? No, I'm not talking to you anymore. (Izzie walks out.) (Patients room) Cristina: Dr. Bailey. Henry Lamott, age 42, is scheduled with Dr. Shepherd for a spinal implant... (Mr. Lamott turns up the volume, there are women laughing and giggling) Cristina: ...to control the pain of his herniated disc. Is allergic to all pain medication ... (Everyone stares at the screen) Cristina: Is that...? Mrs. Lamott: prn. Bailey: prn? (She looks up at the TV) Bailey: As in prn?!?! Alex: All right. What are we watching? Bailey: Karev! Go stand in the hall. (Alex goes outside) Bailey (distracted by the TV): Uh, Mr. & Mrs. Lamott, I'm sure you are really nice people, and what you do in the privacy of your own ... Look, we can't have prn in here. This is a hospital. Henry: It's for my pain. My doc says it releases endorphins in the brain and helps keep my pain at a manageable level. (Interns are amused) George: Really? Bailey: George! Hall! (George walks out strangely) Izzie (amused): What is this? Mrs. Lamott: Nasty, Naughty Nurses ... um (she looks at the TV) 4. (Meredith, Izzie and Cristina tilt their heads while looking at the screen) Cristina: That does not look comfortable. Meredith: Trust me. It's not. (Cristina and Izzie both stare at Meredith) Bailey: Get in the hall! (Near the nurse's station) Bailey: O'Malley, Karev, you're in the pit today. Stevens, there's a cardiac patient waiting up for you on 2. Yang, keep an eye on the Lamott's. I don't want any problems. Go. (They all scurry off, except for Meredith.) Bailey: Grey, your mother's being discharged this evening. You've made arrangements or do you need more time? Meredith: The nursing home is coming at 8. Bailey (starts walking off): All right then you're with Shepherd, Derek Shepherd, today. (Meredith moves to speak) Bailey (smiling): Hey, life is short. Times are hard. The road is long with many a winding turn. (She is serious now) He asked for you. Take it up with him. (E.R room. George enters with Alex. Policemen are standing outside) George: Ok. Doctor: Pete Willoughby, 25 year old, GSW to the chest. Immediate return of 860 CCs of blood from the chest. Pete: Oh Man! This hurts. Doctor: He's put out more than 200 CCs in the past hour. Pete (in pain): They never tell you in the movies how much it hurts to get sht. George: Push morphine, 2mg. Alex, is this my case. Alex: Morphine, 5mg. You didn't even call him. George: I don't have to call him. I was here first. Alex: You got here first because I let you. ... Where's his chest films? George: I got it. You always get the surgery. Today, I'm getting a surgery. Doctor: Guys. Knock it off. He's one of Seattle's finest. You've got an entire police force watching you... (Police are watching from a nearby window) George: Page Dr. Burke. Let him know I'm bringing up a GSW. Alex: No, that "we" are bringing up a GSW. (Ellis Grey's room) Richard: Looks like you'll be able to go home today, Ellis. Ellis: But I still have patients to see. Richard: No. No more patients. I'll be back to check on you later, ok? (He hands the chart to the nurse and they start walking out) Ellis: You should know I'm thinking of leaving Thatcher. (Richard stops) I should never have married him. I'll leave him. You leave Adele. (The nurse looks at Richard) And then when our residency is over we can both get jobs at the same hospital. Richard: Why don't you get her meds ready for her discharge, nurse? (Nurse nods and leaves) Thank you. (Richard sits by Ellis on her bed. He takes her hand.) Richard: Ellis, that was a long time ago, remember? We had this discussion 21 years ago. Ellis: Think about it Richard. We should make the break now. (Richard sighs) If we wait until residency is over, you'll be at one hospital, and I'll be at another. We could end up at opposite ends of the country. It'll be too late. (Derek and Meredith run into each other in the hall) Derek: Meredith. Meredith: Your wife is looking for you. Derek (sighs): Oh, my God, this is hard for me, Meredith. Meredith: Well, let me make it easy then. I'm not gonna be that woman. The one who breaks up a marriage or begs you to want me. You can sign the papers or you cannot. The choice is yours. Either way, when it comes to this relationship, I'm out. (Derek looks at her) Now, where's this patient I'm supposed to be helping you with. Derek (points behind him): Down there. (Meredith starts walking that way. Derek follows) (Izzie checking a patient's heart. The patient's husband is there as well) Mr. Bradley: You shouldn't have tried to walk the dog in the rain. Mrs. Bradley: Oh, Lou, it wasn't the rain. I just passed out. Izzie: Actually, Mrs. Bradley ... Mrs. Bradley: Verna. Izzie: Verna. You presented with lateral ST elevations and reciprocal inferior changes consistent with an MI. A heart attck. Lou: Oh, my God! Verna: Lou, don't worry. I've had these little chest pains before and it turned out to be nothing. This is nothing. (Lou kisses his wife on the cheek) Lou, not in front of the doctor. (Derek and Meredith in a woman's room.) Anna: I've had a twinge in my back for a little while. I thought it would go away, but then last night my legs went numb. And this morning my back ...the pain is just too much. Derek: Miss Chue, we're going to put you on a PCA pump, give you some morphine which should help control the pain. Anna: Thank you. Derek: Ok. But there's a greater problem here. I've just taken a look at your MRI... (Anna's parents enter) Mr. Chue: Anna! Why didn't you call us before coming down here? Anna: I'm sorry. (To Derek and Meredith) These are my parents. Derek: Hi. Mr. Chue: What's going on? Derek: I was just about to explain that Anna's MRI has shown that she has myxopapillary ependymoma. It's a tumor in her spinal canal. But the good news is that we can operate. You have a 95% chance of fully recovering if we get you into surgery as soon as possible. We can't wait another moment. With a tumor this aggressive even waiting another day puts you at risk of permanent paralysis. Anna (looks to her dad): Father? Mr. Chue (shakes his head): No. No surgery. Derek: Mr. Chue, without surgery Anna will be paralyzed, probably within the next 24 hours. Mr. Chue: There will be no surgery today. We're taking her home. Meredith: Anna needs the surgery. Mr. Chue: And she can have it at another time. Derek: Look Mr. Chue... Mr. Chue (interrupts): We are taking our daughter home. (Derek looks at him and then Anna) Derek: Anna, you are over 18. You don't need your father's consent. (Anna looks at her father) Anna: I am Hmong, and my father is the elder. He says I go home, I go home. (Derek stares hard at Anna's father) (Derek and Meredith walking up an empty stair way) Derek: Hmong? Let's find out what that means. Contact Social Services, see if we can get anyone down here, and talk to them. Meredith: Do I continue to process her discharge? Derek: Yeah we have to. It's insane, but we have to. It reminds of this case I had in New York one time and this woman came to the office and... (They stop at then end of a stairway.) Meredith (interrupts): Look, do you need me for anything else work related? (Derek checks to see if anyone is in the stairway) Derek: Look. I was married for 11 years. Addison is my family. That is 11 Thanksgivings, 11 birthdays and 11 Christmases. And in one day, I'm supposed to sign a piece of paper and end my family? A person doesn't do that. Not without a little hesitation. I'm entitled to a little uncertainty here! At least a moment to understand the magnitude to what it means to cut somebody out of my life. I'm entitled to a least one moment (some one enters the stair way. He speaks quieter) of painful doubt. And a little understanding from you would be nice. (He storms off. Meredith just looks annoyed) (Dr. Burke runs into Addison in the hall) Burke: Dr. Shepherd. Still here, I see. Addison: I couldn't leave you. Have you seen the other Dr. Shepherd? Burke: I'll tell him you're looking for him. (Burke keeps walking and Cristina walks up) Cristina: So, um, thanks for, you know, being there. Burke: No thanks needed. Cristina: Ok. Burke: So where are we? Cristina: Uh the north-east corner of a hospital. (Dr. Burke glares at her) Cristina: Oh, I'm, I'm getting back on my feet. Burke: Fine. Cristina: That doesn't mean that... Burke (interrupts): Cristina. Cristina: It's my first day back, I've, I've got... Burke (interrupts): I'm not waiting forever. (Burke enters the elevator as Bailey walks out) Burke: Karev & O'Malley are bringing up a GSW. Wanna scrub in? Bailey: No can do. No extra work. I'm trying to get out of here at a decent hour tonight. Burke: What, you got a date? Bailey: Yes. Yes I do. A handsome man is whisking me away to a love nest for the weekend. (Alex and George are wheeling Pete through the hall) Alex: You got sht in the line of duty? Pete (has difficulty speaking): First month on the job. Can you believe my luck? A guy pulls a gn and I freeze up. The rookie let himself get sht. I'm never gonna live this down. George: Sure, you will. Pete: You think? George: Absolutely. (Izzie runs up to Bailey) Izzie: Hey, I got Verna Bradley's tests back. I don't think she had a heart attck. Bailey: Yeah but look at the changes in her EKG. She had something. Izzie: Yeah but her serial enzymes and her dobutamine stress echo came back negative. I actually think she's fine. Bailey: Get a cardiac cath. Izzie, be thorough. (Dr. Bailey walks off) Izzie: I am thorough. (George, Alex and Pete riding in the elevator) Alex: So, dude, what's the deal with Izzie? George: She shaved her legs for you. Alex: And? George: And you didn't even kiss her goodnight. Pete: She shaved her legs for you and you didn't follow through? Alex: Hey, I follow through. I always follow through. George (half laughs): You didn't last night. Alex: Mind your own business. George: Mind... (George takes a breath) She had expectations. Women have expectations. And you didn't meet them. Hey, I live with these women and every time you guys don't meet their expectations, I have to hear about it. I didn't get any sleep last night. So you know it is my business. (The elevator goes black and stops) Alex: Dude, we're not moving. George (sarcastic): Really! You think? (Meredith, Cristina and Izzie are standing in the hall when the lights flicker. Cristina is in obvious pain) Meredith: You know how long the surgical scar takes to heal. You must be in pain. You should take something. Cristina: Drugs are for babies. Izzie: I hate Alex. Cristina (looks at Izzie): The non sequitur award goes to... Izzie: I'm sorry. I hate Alex. Meredith: I broke up with Derek. Cristina: Burke wants to have a relationship. Izzie: Boys are stupid. (Izzie & Meredith walk off) Cristina: Yep. (The elevator is still not moving. Alex is trying to pry it open) George: "If elevator should stop, do not become alarmed." "Press the button marked alarm to summon the assistance." (He pushes the button repeatedly) They don't want us to be alarmed then why call the button "alarm"? Alex: That didn't work the last 5 times you did it. Get it through your head we've lost power. We're stuck here. (Pete moans. George and Alex check him) George: You ok? (George checks the BP monitor. Alex takes his pulse) His pressure is falling. (He whispers to Alex) Alex, there's a lot more asbestosis in the pleura back. We need to get him to the OR. Pete: Ok, you're whispering. Don't whisper. I mean, I don't wanna complain here, but I got a bllet in my chest and whispering isn't a sign I'm gonna be A-OK, you know? (Alex tries the emergency elevator phone) Alex: Damn it. It's out. Pete: It's bad. It's bad, right? George: Someone is gonna get us out of here. Don't worry. (Mr. Lamott's room) Cristina: How we doing? Henry: Oh, can you move me to another room? The lights and the TV went out. Cristina: Ah. Power outage in the east wing. They'll have it back on soon. You're not a critical patient. You'll be fine here. Henry: Oh, god! What am I gonna do? Cristina: You mean... Henry: Without my prn! Cristina: Read a book. Talk to your wife. Henry: No. School closed early because of the storm. She had to pick up the kids. She won't be back until after dinner. Cristina: Well, I'm sure you can find some normal way of amusing yourself. (She starts walking out.) Henry: No, I need my prn! Cristina (dismissively): Yeah. (She leaves) (Addison and Richard walking through a dark hall) Addison: Lightning ht a sub station. We're running on back up generators. One of them is down. (Richard puts his hands on his hips annoyed) Richard, breathe. Richard (frustrated): The only direct means of transporting from the ER to the OR isn't working. Don't tell me to breathe. I'll breathe if I wanna breathe. (He walks off. Addison holds up her hands in defense and walks after him.) (Bailey and Burke watching some men pry open an elevator) Man: Cars caught between floors. (Richard & Addison walk up to them) Richard: How bad is it? Burke: Two interns and a GSW to the chest. (Richard closes his eyes and puts his hand to his forehead) Addison: Good air in, (breathes in) bad air out. (Richard gives her a look) Richard: Come on people get those doors open. (The doors partially open to reveal Alex and George inside with Pete) Guard: It's jammed. It won't open any more. Bailey: Move. Move. Guard: This is wide as wide as it goes. (Bailey looks) Bailey (accusingly): What...What did you two do? Alex & George: Nothing! (She gets up. Dr. Burke takes her place and peers in) Burke: How's the patient? George: He's not looking so good. (Anna's room) Anna: Why do the lights keep flickering? Meredith: Something about a backup generator. This pump will provide you with a morphine drip and should stop your pain. Anna: I, I told you, I don't need it. I'm going home. Meredith: You realize you'll have to sign an AMA form stating that you're leaving against medical advice. Anna (nods): Fine. Meredith: I know this is new and confusing. ... I called a social worker and she's willing to come down and talk to you... Anna (interrupts): Spare me your white-girl, cultural divide love. I grew up from the street down here. I play in a band. I went to U-Dub. I get it. My father doesn't. He says no, it's no. Meredith: We're talking about your ability to ever walk again. Anna: That's what you're talking about. I'm talking about my family. Have you ever even heard of the Hmong people? Our religion has got rules that are way old and way set in stone and way spiritual and you don't mess with them. (sighs) You don't anger the ancestors. (She makes a face) Even if you pierce your tongue and play in a band. Meredith: What are the rules exactly? (Bailey is walking down a dark hall with a nurse.) Bailey: All I.C.U. patients are going to the south wing. All telemetry and step-down patients north wing. (Derek comes up to them. Nurse nods and walks off) Derek: You paged me? Bailey: prn! As pain management? Derek (grinning): You met Henry. Yeah, there's a lot of different theories on how to treat pain. Bailey: prn! As pain management? Derek: Look. It's possible that prn like art and music can stimulate the brain to produce endorphins that minimize pain. Bailey: prn! As pain management? Derek: I didn't prescribe it. It wasn't me. Take it up with the treating physician. Bailey: If that man turns out to be some sort of sex weirdo it's on you. That's all I'm saying. ... Oh, and you're wife's looking for you. (She walks off) Derek: I know. (Meredith comes up to Derek. They start walking down the hall together) Meredith: Derek. Derek: Yes? Meredith: You need to talk to Anna's father. I'd do it myself but I guess having testicles is a requirement. Derek (sighs): What happened to social services? Meredith: According to Anna they can't help us. Apparently Anna's father believes she's missing something that she needs for surgery. Derek: Missing something? Missing what? Meredith: One of her souls. (He looks at her) We don't need a social worker. We need a shaman. Derek: A shaman. (Verna's room) Izzie: Cardio tells me that your cath went just fine. Verna: Is that much bruising normal? Izzie: Your one looks good Mrs. Bradley and so do the results on your cath. You don't have any blockage in your arteries. Lou: Which means? Izzie: You definitely did not have a heart attck. (Both Lou & Verna sigh in relief and joy) Verna: So I can go home? Izzie: Not yet. Your EKG shows significant changes. And I'm gonna find out why before you leave the hospital. (Stuck elevator) Alex: Hey what are you doing? Pete (delirious): I have to get home. Alex: Pete, you're in the hospital. Pete (delirious): Need to get home. (George and Alex restrain him) No. Need to get home. (Dr. Burke peers in through the small opening) Burke: What's his blood pressure? George: It's not reading. He's too agitated. Burke: How's his pulse? Alex: Thready but it's still there. Burke: Do you have any instruments? Alex: Uh, just a code box and some gloves. Burke (annoyed): You didn't bring an open chest tray? Alex: No we thought ... Burke (interrupts angry): You don't have time for excuses. O'Malley, blood pressure. George: I've taken it 3 times. Burke: And? George: I can't hear systolic over 50. (Pete is really pale and wheezing) George: He's gonna die. (George & Alex look at each other. Burke makes a decision) Burke: Intubate him. I'll be right back. George: Wait. Where are you going? Burke: To get an instrument tray. You guys are going to have to open up his chest. (George and Alex look at each other. Dr. Burke stands up. Dr. Bailey is there standing next to him) Bailey: Are you sure about that? Burke: No. (He runs off down the hall) (George and Alex are intubating Pete) George: When's Burke coming back? (whispers) Is Dr. Burke coming back? ... Alex? Alex: Oh, would you shut up. (Outside of SGH) Derek: Mr. Chue! You wanna take Anna home for a healing ritual? Mr. Chue: When sickness comes, it means one of her souls is missing. Anna needs every soul intact before she has surgery. She needs a shaman. Derek: Well, you could of, told me that. Mr. Chue: Why? So you coulc call me a fool. Derek: I respect that you have traditions that I can't understand. But you're standing beside me in a $3000 dollar suit, so I also know that you respect the fact that I'm telling you Anna needs a surgery in the next 24 hours if she's going to continue to walk. She can't leave this hospital. Mr. Chue: She can't undergo surgery without her soul. She'd die. Derek: All right then. We're just gonna have to get a shaman. Today, in the hospital. Mr. Chue (mildly amused): Shaman's aren't listed in the yellow pages. Our shaman is 500 miles from here. You are an arrogant man. Derek: No. I'm just a guy with access to a helicopter. (Mr. Chue smiles, takes out another cigar and hands it to Derek) Derek: Thank you. Mr. Chue: Finding her soul won't be easy. Derek: It never is. (He walks off) (Richard & Bailey are walking down a hallway) Richard: This is incogitable. There's not enough power to move those elevators? Bailey: They're doing what they can to replace the back up generator now. fre department is standing by. Richard: All critical patients? Bailey: Moved to the south wing. Richard: Incoming trauma? Bailey: Re-routed to Mercy West. Richard (angry): Look that back-up generator should've been replaced last year. Bailey: Yes, sir. Richard (angry): Why didn't it happen? Bailey: Chief, you ... eh ... have to ... ask maintenance, I wouldn't...know Richard (interrupts): Dr. Bailey, you know everything. Tell me whose butt to kick. Bailey: That would be your butt Chief. You didn't authorize the replacement generator, saved the money for the new MRI machine. (Richard looks at her) Um I need to get on back down to the ... (She gestures to the elevator and walks off. Richard is left smiling sheepish) (Burke comes back to the elevator) Burke: Hey! This isn't gonna be too sterile but we can still try. Prep and drape the patient. (Hands them the things they will need)[/i]) (Nurse's station) Izzie (to nurse): Hey, can you get me copies of all of Verna Bradley's medical records and page me. I'll be on the OR floor. (Cristina looks at her. Izzie starts walking off upstairs quickly) Cristina: Hey ... wait ... where (Meredith is coming down the stairs hurrying) where are you 2 going so fast? Izzie: Burke is talking George & Alex through heart surgery in the elevator. (She heads up the stairs. Meredith is already half way down the hall) Meredith: Shepherd is setting up a shaman healing ritual. Izzie (from up on the next floor): Rock on! Cristina (to Herself annoyed): I have prn guy! (Mr. Lamott's room) Mr. Lamott: Help please. ... Oh. Cristina: Mr. Lamott. What's wrong? (She picks up his chart and reads it. Mr. Lamott groans in pain) Cristina: Pressure's elevated. Pulse is racing (in shock) You're really in pain! Mr. Lamott: Whatcha think? Cristina (still stunned): Are you telling me the prn actually sedated you? Mr. Lamott: Oh, what did you think I'm some kinda pervert watching that stuff in front of you? Cristina: Well ... yes. (Mr. Lamott gives her a look) Cristina: Oh, okay, okay. (she grabs his chart) Uh ... you're allergic to most narcotics and NSAIDs. I, I suppose uh we could try droperidol and dihydroemetine. Mr. Lamott (in pain): No. That put me into a coma last year. Cristina: Well, ah um I can get anesthesiologist down here. (She shakes her head) Oh no but with your surgery tomorrow I don't think he'll give you an epidural block. Mr. Lamott (desperate): What am I gonna do? Cristina (scratching her head): Uh hold on. (Elevator) Alex: We're really going to do this. (George just looks at him. Dr. Burke peering through puts through his hand to hand over a pair of scissors and a scalpel to Alex) Burke: Take these. (Alex just looks at them and remains standing still) Burke: Karev, take the scalpel. (Alex just stands frozen with a scared look on his face. He looks at George) George: Alex. Come on. (He doesn't move) Alex! (Dr. Burke looks at Alex confused. There's a huge crowd now outside the elevator. Lots of interns and doctors. Izzie & Dr. Bailey are 2 of them. Alex just looks away from the scalpel and scissors. George annoyed moves.) George: Ventilate! (Dr. Burke is looking at Alex now concerned. George moves to take the scalpel and scissors) George: I got it. (George gives Alex an angry look. Alex is just looking down petrified) George (to Dr. Burke): What do I do? Burke: Make a large anterior, lateral, mid-auxiliary incision in the 5th intercostal space. George: How, how large? (Alex is now holding a light for George as well as ventilating) Burke: As long as possible. You need to get 2 hands in there. It needs to be long and deep. Use the scissors if you have to. (Alex makes eye contact with Dr. Burke. Dr. Burke looks at him but then turns his attention to George) George: Ok. (He is about to cut when Dr. Burke startles him) Burke: But, be sure you don't cut into the lobe of the heart. George: Uh, how can I be sure of that? Burke: You just have to be sure. (George looks a little panicked) George: We're not in Kansas anymore. (He starts cutting into Pete's chest) (Anna's room) Derek: Your shaman's late. Mr. Chue: My shaman is never late. (Derek and Meredith smile half heartedly at each other) (Crows outside the elevator) Izzie: You guys see anything? Poor George, doesn't have the steadiest hands. Bailey: Izzie. Izzie: Yeah? Bailey (speaks out each word distinctly): He can hear you. (Dr. Burke is watching the operation) Burke: O'Malley, how are you doing down there? (fre department arrives) Bailey: Uh, fre department's here. They can get the doors open. Burke: No. Nobody moves. Nobody works on the elevator. I have an open chest and a very nervous intern in there. Keep them back until I give the word. (Dr. Bailey nods) Burke: O'Malley. George: I didn't cut the heart or the lungs. (Louder) Dr. Burke, I didn't cut the heart or the lungs! Burke: Good, good. Good. Good, O'Malley. Really good. Now check for injuries and do a pericardiotomy. George (concentrating on Pete): Uh I'll need some lap pads, forceps, Metzenbaums and Satinksy clamps. Burke (nods smiling, quietly impressed): Yes, you will. (Mr. Lamott's room) Cristina: You tell anyone I did this for you, not only will I kll you; I will sell your body parts for cash. (Mr. Lamott nods gratefully) Cristina: Okay. So ... there were these women. ... Nurses. 3 nurses. And they were ... naughty. ... Really, really, naughty. ... They were 3 naughty nurses. Uh saucy even. They were saucy and, and bad and naughty. 3 saucy, naughty, bad nurses. They were taking a shower ... together. (Mr. Lamott starts to become less in pain) Soaping each other up. And then this doctor walks in and he sees these 3 naughty bad nurses with these great big ... (Verna's room) Izzie: Mrs. Bradley, do you realize you've been admitted to the hospital on this date for the past 7 years? Lou: Oh, that can't be. I don't remember the date exactly but ... Izzie (interrupts): I have the medical records. On this date for the past 7 years you have what looks like a heart attck. Verna (smiling): No. No. I know I've had some scares but I, I don't... Lou (interrupts): Every year on this date? (Izzie nods) Izzie: Is there some significance to this date for you personally? Verna: No. Nothing. Izzie: What we're you doing the first year? The first time you had a cardiac episode? Verna: Oh, I couldn't remember back that far. Lou: We were in the yard. I remember because our neighbor ... what was his name? Verna (gets a look on her face): Ted. Lou: That's right. He died ... of an aneurysm I think. And we watched as the funeral home people took him away and you had your first attck. Izzie: And you were close to Ted? Verna: No. Oh. (Looks at her husband) We barley knew Ted. Lou: That was all very sad, but what does that have to with Verna's heart? (Izzie looks at Verna. Verna looks away) (Elevator) George: I've removed the small clot from the pericardium. No obvious cardiac injuries. Burke: Any change in the vitals? Alex: BP's still too low to register on the monitor. Burke: We need to cross clamp the aorta. (He grabs a clamp from a tray next to him and puts it through the opening. George moves to retrieve it) Burke: Stick your hand in and bluntly dissect down until you feel 2 tube-like structures. The esophagus will be more medial and anterior. (George sticks his hands in the open chest) George: Ah I feel one tube that is easily collapsible and the other is more muscular, spongy. I can ah feel the spine just underneath it. Burke: Yes, you're touching the aorta. George (to Alex): I'm touching the aorta. Burke: Wrap the index finger of your left hand around it and apply a Satinsky clamp with your right hand. (George puts in the clamp) George: Got it. ... Wait I...I think I can localize the bleeding. I think it's coming from the inferior vena cava. Burke: Can you find the lesion? George: Yeah. Yeah. I think I can feel ah (he fiddles around) ... it's too far in to repair. Burke: How big is it? George: Small, maybe. Maybe smaller than a dime. Burke: Ok, O'Malley. I want you to take your finger and plug the hole. (George puts his hand in) George: I think I can feel his heart... starting to fill more. It's beating a little stronger. Burke: Excellent. Keep your finger there. George: Ok, now what? Burke: That's it. George: That's it? (Dr. Burke turns over to lie on his back in relief) I just stand here with my finger plugging the hole? Burke: Until we can get you out of that elevator and into the OR. (George and Alex look at each other) Burke: Dr. Bailey, tell the fre department to get my guys out of there. Bailey: Will do. (To fre department) Ok, we're ready. Burke (rolls back over and peers in): O'Malley. George: Yes sir? Burke: You just flew solo. George: Thank you sir. (Seattle Scenes) (Anna's room) Meredith: Ok, Anna. We're going to shut off the PCA pump now which means you'll be in a lot of pain for the duration of the ... Anna (interrupts): the healing ritual. Meredith: Are you ok with that? Anna: Yeah. I can't find my soul if I'm medicated. No pain, no gain right? Meredith: Well, it's not just for your father. You believe it too, right? Anna: I know it sounds like a load of crap but ... watch the ritual. You'll see. Meredith: See what? Anna: The moment it happens. (Meredith nods) (The shaman comes to the doorway with Anna's family.) Anna: I'm ready. (Mr. Lamott's room) Cristina: "Oh, yes I'm so very, very naughty," Bianca said as she dropped her stethoscope. (Dr. Bailey is walking by the room and pokes her head in. Cristina doesn't see) Cristina: Me too said Crystal as she snapped on her surgical glove. (Dr. Bailey looks aghast) Cristina: And then there was Marta... (She stops when she sees Dr. Bailey looking at her demandingly. Cristina shrugs and gestures look at him, he's sedated. Dr. Bailey looks annoyed but walks off) Cristina: Where was I? Henry: Marta. Cristina: Oh yes Marta was the naughtiest nurse of all because she knew how ... (She stops when the lights and television come back on) CRISTINA: Oh, thank god. (Anna's room where the healing ritual is taking place) Derek: How long do you think it takes to retrieve a lost soul? Meredith: I don't know. (Elevator, Izzie is looking in) Izzie (smiling): Way to go George! George: I have my finger in a heart. Izzie: Very cool. (She stops smiling when she makes eye contact with Alex who looks upset) (Ellis's room) (Verna's room) Izzie: You have stress cardiomyopathy. Verna: Cardiomyopathy? What does... can you tell me what that is? Izzie: It's Ted. Verna: Ted? Izzie: Ted. Not just the neighbor you barely knew, was he? Verna (trying to not get emotional): I don't know what you're talking about. Izzie: Cause every year on the day he died, you get a rush of adrenaline caused by stress. Your pressure rises. You have chest pains. And you end up here. Verna: 27 years. I loved the man next door, and he loved me. I know how this is gonna sound but Ted was my soul mate. And then he just died! Izzie (quietly): Its grief. Your heart stops because you're grieving for Ted. Verna (teary): So ... what do I do next? ... I mean how do you treat it? Izzie: I wish I knew. (George talking with the police being congratulated. Alex just walks away) (Derek and Meredith watching the healing ritual) (Richard enters Ellis's room) Ellis: I told Thatch I'm leaving him. Richard: You left Thatcher, Ellis. But I couldn't bring myself to leave Adele. Do you remember? Ellis: Painted horses. Richard: Yes. We were on the carousel in the park. It was raining. Ellis: I have an offer from Boston General. Richard: You took it to get away. We swore to never to talk again about what we had together. It was gonna always be our secret. Ellis: Richard. Richard: Yes, Ellis? Ellis: Carousels give me the creeps. (Mr. Lamott's room) Cristina: How do you put up with it? ... I mean 'Nasty Naughty Nurses 4' and I'm assuming 1, 2 & 3. Mrs. Lamott: He's my Henry. Cristina: I know, but don't you find him misogynistic and degrading and kind of ... (she sighs) 24 hours a day of prn. Seriously that's your life? Mrs. Lamott: I'm grateful for it. It takes away his pain. You see the thing is ... Henry ... Henry takes away my pain. (Cristina looks likes she understands) (Healing ritual, Anna and Meredith nod at each other) (Derek and Meredith in Anna's surgery. Derek looks up to the gallery to see Addison watching, smiling. Meredith notices.) (Scrub room after the surgery) Meredith: I lied. I'm not out ... of this relationship. I'm in. I'm so in, it's humiliating because here I am begging... Derek (interrupts quietly): Meredith. Meredith: Shut up. You say Meredith and I yell, remember? Derek: Yeah. (Derek leans against the sink listening) Meredith: Ok, here it is. Your choice. It's simple. (She starts getting teary and emotional) Her or me. And I'm sure she's really great. But, Derek... I love you... in a really, really big ... "pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window"...unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me. Choose me. Love me. (Derek looks at her lovingly. He moves in to touch her. Meredith pulls away) Meredith: I'll be at Joe's tonight. So if you do decide to sign the papers, meet me there. (Meredith walks out. Derek looks distressed and sighs) (Seattle Scenes) (SGH) (Ellis's room) Richard: Goodbye, Ellis. (Ellis doesn't look at him. Meredith walks up to Ellis) Meredith: I am gonna come see you tomorrow, okay? (She moves to step back but Ellis grabs her arm) Ellis: He doesn't love her. He can't. But he'll stay with her anyway. She's his wife. Meredith: Mom? (Ellis looks like she recognizes Meredith as she is today). Mommy. Ellis: Meredith. (Meredith crouches down. Ellis places cups Meredith's cheek with her hand). You grew up. Meredith: I did. Ellis: Hmm. It's a shame. It's awful being a grown-up. But the carousel never stops turning. You can't get off. Meredith: Ok. (She stands up and a person wheels Ellis out. She and Richard just stand there) (Joe's bar, Meredith is doing tequila shts) Meredith: You think he'll show? Joe: He'll show. (The door opens. Meredith turns to the door hopefully but it's George walking in) George: Hey! (Derek in the waiting room of SGH, Bailey walks by all dressed up) Bailey: How's your patient? The one who got her soul back? Derek: She's gonna be fine. (A man knocks on the window from outside the hospital. Dr. Bailey sees, smiles and waves) Bailey: Gotta go. Derek: Look at you. You're like a girl. (she gives Derek a look) Is that your date? Bailey: That's my husband. Derek: You're married? Bailey: 10 years today. Derek (shocked and smiling): How come I didn't know you were married? Bailey: You never asked. (He half nods) You haven't signed those divorce papers yet, have you? (He shakes his head no. She shakes her head as well) Derek: Bailey. Tell me what to do. (They both chuckle) Derek: God, why does this have to be so hard? Bailey: It's not hard. It's painful but it's not hard. You know what to do already. If you didn't you wouldn't be in this much pain. (She walks outside and meets her husband. They hug and kiss. Derek watches) MVO: Pain. You just have to ride it out. Hope it goes away on its own. Hope the wound that caused it heals. (Cristina enters the on-call room) Cristina: So here's where we are. I work too much. I'm competitive. I'm always right. And I snore. (Dr. Burke looks confused) Burke: What? Cristina: I'm trying here. (Dr. Burke still looks slightly confused) Burke: Ohhhhh. Oh. ... (Realization dawns) Oh! Oh. Cristina: Yeah. (She smiles) Burke: So? Cristina: Okay. We're a couple. Whatever. Don't make a big deal about it. (She walks to the door. But then walks back quickly, jumps and kisses Burke. She walks back and out of the room) (Derek is still sitting in the hospital) MVO: There are no solutions. No easy answers. You just breathe deep and wait for it to subside. (Meredith is still waiting) Meredith (sighs): He's not coming. (Izzie looks sad for her) You don't think he's coming. Izzie: He might come. Cristina: Yeah. You never know. George (to Meredith): He's definitely coming. (Izzie kicks George) George (to Izzie & Cristina): Ow. What? Do you want her doing tequila shts all night? I'll be the one cleaning up the vomit. (they look at him. He looks at Cristina) Besides, I touched a heart today. prn. (The bell on the door goes off again. They turn to look. It's just a couple entering the bar) MVO: Most of the time pain can be managed. Meredith (to Joe): Pour me another one. MVO: But sometimes, the pain gets to you when you least expect it. Joe: I'm telling you. Any second. (Derek is still sitting in the hospital) MVO: ht's way below the belt and doesn't let up. (Addison walks up to him) Addison: I have been looking ... everywhere for you. Derek: Well ... you found me. Addison: So? You gonna sign those divorce papers or not? (Derek just looks at her) (Meredith is at the bar, taking tequila sht after tequila sht) MVO: Pain. You just have to fight through because the truth is you can't out run it. And life always make more. (Meredith sits at the bar, very sad)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x05 - Bring the Pain"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x06: Into You Like A Train Original Airdate: 10/30/2005 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Jeff Melman (JOE'S BAR) (Meredith alone at the bar, drinking tequila again) Meredith: I actually said "Pick me." Right? I did? "Pick me"? Joe: I think it's romantic. Meredith: It's not romantic, Joe, it's horrifying. Horror movie horrifying. Carrie at the prom with the pig's blood horrifying. Joe: Ok, fine, it's horrifying. But Carrie took out an entire senior class as revenge. Gotta say, I like that in a girl. Meredith: I said "Pick me." (Izzie, George and Cristina also in the bar) Cristina: When you tell someone "I'll meet you later at a bar tonight," how long exactly does that mean you're supposed to wait? George: Do you think he's really not coming? Izzie: It is getting a little hard to watch. Cristina: It was hard to watch an hour ago. Now it's just pathetic. Meredith: Who's pathetic? (George & Izzie give Cristina a look. Cristina looks away) Cristina: What? Meredith (slightly inebriated): You, who pretend to be my friends are calling me pathetic behind my back in front of my face. (George points to Cristina as if to say her, not me) Why don't you just dump the pig's blood on me now and get it over with? (The door bell jingles as someone walks into the bar. It's Tyler the male scrub nurse. He gives a nod to them. Someone's pager goes off) Meredith (to herself): He's really not coming. (George's pager goes off. In fact every doctor's pager starts going off) Bar Patron: Joe, turn up the TV! (Bar TV is showing a train wreck) TV: A massive train wreck occurred just outside of Seattle just minutes ago. Cristina (looking at her pager): 911. Izzie: We just worked a 30 hour shift. George: I don't have any clean underwear. (They all start packing up their bags) TV: The Vancouver-bound train was carrying over 300 passengers. Joe: Looks ugly. TV: Paramedics are on scene helping victims. (He notices that Meredith is also getting ready to leave) Joe: You're leaving? No, no, no, you can't leave. Meredith: Sorry, gotta go tend to someone else's train wreck. Joe: You gotta at least stay for a cup of coffee. You're in no shape to cut people open. Plus, (he gestures about the whole M&D situation) I don't wanna miss the ending. Cristina (calls from the door): Meredith? Meredith: Maybe it's for the best. Maybe I don't wanna know. (She makes towards the door) Joe: That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Meredith: Bye Joe. MVO: In general... people can be categorized in one of two ways. (Emergency entrance) Paramedic: He was in the front of the train. MVO: Those who love surprises, and those who don't. (The interns and other doctors run up) MVO: I don't. (Derek finally enters Joe's, and looks for Meredith) Joe: Dude, you're late. TV: Once again, a massive train wreck occurred just outside of Seattle minutes ago. (The interns are changing into scrubs in the elevator) MVO: I've never met a surgeon that enjoys a surprise, because, as surgeons we like to be in the know. We have to be in the know. Because when we aren't, people die and lawsuits happen. Am I rambling? I think I'm rambling. (Exit elevator) Cristina (to George): I think I saw a pneumothorax. I hope I get a pneumothorax. (They start grabbing some yellow gowns putting them on except Meredith) Alex: Hey. Thought you weren't talking to me. Izzie: Thought you could use a friend, so I'm rising above. Alex: Why would you think that? Izzie: Um, because you freaked out in the elevator. Alex: I didn't freak out. Izzie: And missed your chance to perform open-heart surgery. Alex: O'Malley plugged the hole with his finger. Izzie (sighs): I thought you could use someone to talk to. Alex: Well, I don't. Izzie: To someone who actually cares ... Alex (interrupts): Yes, I get that, but don't ... (Bailey enters, still dressed in her dress and heels) George (in shock): Oh! Bailey: What are you looking at? (Bailey walks to Alex and hands him her jacket and purse) Bailey: Hey, you, go get me my damn shoes. Let's move, people. Meredith: Hello. I seem to be a little bit drunk. I was off duty. Bailey: So was I! (To the others) Anybody else half in the bottle? (They all shake their head no. George checks his breath to make sure) Bailey: All right then. Grey just stay out of the way. I'll deal with you later. The rest of you, stick with me and wait for your assignments. (Cristina moves behind to tie up the back of Bailey's gown) Now you get all aquiver at the sight of blood, and organs but it's gonna be a long night and you already tired. I don't want any mistakes. (Cristina is still tying up the gown) Bailey (to Cristina): Come on now! Cristina: I'm done. I'm done. (They enter the ER that is full of patients) Cristina: I'm so not tired anymore. George: Me neither. I'm not tired either. (Meredith sees Addison with a pregnant patient who is brned pretty badly and walks slowly to a wall and watches) Addison: I've got a 3rd trimester burn victim here Dr. Bailey and I'm gonna need some help. (Izzie, George & Cristina all put up their hand eagerly) Bailey: Ah. Izzie, go. (George and Cristina shoulders sag. Izzie is excited) Izzie: Yes! Have a nice nap. Addison (to patient): Have you had any contractions? (Tyler the scrub nurse walks into the pit still dressed in his casual clothes from the bar. He sees Meredith standing against the wall) Tyler: Oh hey. Joe told me to tell you that McSteamy came looking for you. Meredith (perks a bit at this news): You mean McDreamy. Joe said McDreamy came looking for me? Tyler: No. I'm pretty sure it was McSteamy. (Derek enters) George (to Cristina): Does that mean he picked her? Cristina: If it does, I just lost 50 bucks. (Paramedic rushes in holding a leg) Paramedic: Got the leg! (He holds up a severed leg. George and Cristina stare) Cristina (almost groans): I want the leg. (Tony a paramedic & Richard wheel in a guy who has a severed right leg through emergency double doors) Tony: He's lost a lot of blood at the scene. Pressure dressings applied. 2 large boar IVs started. Richard: Anything for the pain? Tony: Base ordered morphine. 5 mgs given so far. Richard: Dr. Bailey who you got? (Both George & Cristina put up their hands eagerly almost whacking Dr. Bailey) Bailey: Ah! Cristina. Go. Cristina: Yes! (She goes off running towards the severed leg guy. George slumps defeated) Richard: Rule out other injuries and book an O.R. (Cristina nods eagerly and starts wheeling of severed leg guy. Derek comes up to Richard) Derek: Dr. Webber! Richard: We have a train wreck Derek. We need all hands on deck. Now clear me for surgery or you're fired. Derek: Any headaches today? Richard: No! Derek: Dizziness? Nausea? Blurred vision? Richard: No! No! No and no. Now can you get out of my way? (Richard starts walking away) Derek: Fine. But I'm coming with you. (Richard gives Derek a look) Or I'm fired. Up to you. (He gestures fine but doesn't look happy and walks off down the hall. Derek follows making eye contact with Meredith as he passes her, nodding slightly) George comes up to Meredith[/i]) George: Was that a nod? Meredith: Yes. George: Do we know what it meant? Meredith: No. George (seeing another patient wheel by an intern): Am I invisible? MVO: Ok, so my point actually ... and I do have one. Has nothing to do with surprises or death or lawsuits or even surgeons. (Alex comes into the pit with Dr. Bailey's normal work shoes, which by the way don't look very practical. She puts them on, removing her heels) MVO: My point is this: whoever said what you don't know can't hurt you was a complete and total moron. Because for most people I know, not knowing is the worst feeling in the world. (Unbelievably two people from the wreck are sitting on a gurney together with a metal pole sticking through their abdomens. They are facing each other almost as if hugging. An older black man and young blond woman. Meredith sees this) MVO: Ok, fine, maybe it's the second worst. (Cut to trauma room 1 where the two people who have a pole through them are being checked on. Meredith is in there as well. A paramedic, Jill is outside talking to Dr. Burke and Dr. Bailey who are also amazed) Jill: His BP is looking steady at 90 over pal. She's had 2 hypotensive episodes to the low seventies. Burke: You couldn't get a saw in there? Jill: Not without moving them. Bailey: Which would have been a very bad idea. (Pan inside to Meredith looking in amazement at the pole people. The blonde woman, one of the pole duo, Bonnie sees Meredith's curiosity) Bonnie: Is this the craziest thing you ever seen? Meredith: Uh. ... Yeah. Bonnie: Yeah. Me too. (Dr. Bailey gives Meredith a look to stay away from the patients. Meredith scurries off to the side where George & Alex are) Jill: Ok, then. You guys got it from here? Bailey: Hey uh ... you were at the scene? Jill (nods): Won't be too bad for you. Lot of carnage. Not a lot of survivors. (She walks off. Bonnie sees Dr. Burke and Dr. Bailey talking and appears agitated) Burke: They're never gonna fit into CT. We're gonna be flying blind. Get x-rays and labs and page me the minute you're done. Bonnie (calls out): Excuse me! (Dr. Burke & Dr. Bailey walk into the trauma room) Burke: Hi. I'm Dr. Burke. You shouldn't turn your head. You want to try and move as little as possible. Bonnie: Oh ok. ... So are you gonna pull this pole out of us anytime soon? Tom: Touch uncomfortable. Burke (smiles): I'm sorry we can't until we get a better look on what's going on internally. But I assure you we will work as quickly as possible. Bonnie: Well, in that case, does anybody have a breath mint? (Dr. Burke smiles. Tom squints his eyebrows in question at her) Bonnie: For me. Not for you. (He smiles. She smiles back) Burke (whispers to Bailey): Get them going Bailey (nods): Uh O'Malley. Get them an X-ray. George: Reall... (He nods. He gestures to Meredith to tie his gown) Thanks. Bailey: Move them extremely carefully. George (whispers to Meredith): This never would've happened before the elevator. (Alex overhears and looks annoyed at this) Meredith: You go George. (George moves to the gurney. Dr. Bailey, Meredith & Alex walk out of the trauma room) Bailey: Alex, cover the E.R. You can do sutures while you get over your new found fear of scalpels. (Alex goes off) Meredith (smiling still drunk): That was mean. Even for you. Bailey (makes a face): You are drunk. Go, Go get yourself a banana bag IV and put it in your arm and then find me. Do not speak to any more patients. Do not practice any medicine. Meredith (gestures tipsy): Well should I just go home? Bailey: Well unless you drank the whole liquor bottle you'll be sober in a few hours. And the IV fluids will head off your hangover. Then you can assist with the many mangled victims you see spread out before you. Besides if I'm not going home, nobody's going home. (She walks off and mutters to herself) Bailey: 10 years of marriage and I didn't even get to finish my damn lobster. (Cut to George with other doctors wheeling Bonnie & Tom really slowly through the hallway to the X-ray lab) George: Well is there any one you'd like me to call? Tom: No they called my wife from the ambulance. Bonnie: And my fianc�. They're flying down from Vancouver together. Tom: Normally, Amanda would be a tad upset to find me pressed up against another woman. (Bonnie laughs) But in this case I think I'll get a pass. George: You two weren't traveling together? Bonnie: No. We just met. Tom: Bit of an awkward introduction. Bonnie: You have very nice pores. Tom (chuckles): Oh. Hurts to laugh. (There is large queue waiting to get x-rays done. George taps an intern with a patient in a wheelchair) George: Hey. Intern: Hey. (The intern recoils when he sees Tom & Bonnie) Whoa. You can go ahead. George: Oh. Thanks. (George gestures for doctors to move B&T. George moves onto the next in line a female blonde intern. He clears his throat behind her and she turns around and sees the pole people) Intern: Oh wow. George: Do you think uh I could ... Intern: Oh yeah go ahead. (They make it into the x-ray room 1) (Cut to Maternity hospital room where the brned pregnant women named Brooke is now in a hospital bed. Addison is viewing the machine for contractions. Izzie is treating the burns but keeps staring at Addison. Addison notice's this) Addison: Dr. Stevens, do you need something? Izzie: No. (She goes back to treating the burns) Brooke: Ow! Izzie (stops): Oh I'm sorry am I doing this ... Brooke: Ow! Oh. Ow. (She looks at Addison) Did ... was that a ...did I have ...? Addison (looking at the print out): Contraction. It was definitely a contraction. We need to book an OR (Izzie nods and heads off) Look you are in no shape to push and the baby is still in some distress. You're going to have to proceed with a C-section. Brooke: Ok. ... Ok but can we call a lawyer first? (Addison is confused) I don't have a will. And there's no father. And in case something happens to me ... Addison: There's no cause for a panic Brooke. We have some time, ok? Brooke: Ok. (Cut to Izzie walking through the E.R. ward. Alex watches her walk by. He is suturing the forehead of a woman named Mary. Her friend Yvonne is standing in front of her bed. Yvonne's mobile rings) Yvonne: Hello. Oh, oh, oh, no, no, no we fine. Yeah some redneck tried to out run the train. Honey the train slammed into his ass and then it rolled. Alex (to Mary): That hurt? (Mary mmm's no) Yvonne: No, no, no, no, no that dude is toast. Honey, him and about 200 other people. And Mary got her face all cut up. Alex: Hurt anywhere else? Mary (points to her abdomen): Here. A whole bunch of luggage when they ht the brakes just came flying at us. (Alex lifts up her gown and there is bruising there) Alex: Ok I'll take you for an x-ray. See if anything's broken. Any internal injuries. Mary: Ok. (Alex and scrubs nurse start moving Mary's gurney. Yvonne notices this) Yvonne: Yeah you know wait I'm going to have to call you back. (She hangs up her phone and calls out to Alex) Hey! Hey! Excuse me. Excuse me. Um, where you going? Alex: I'm taking your friend for an x-ray. Yvonne: Ah. (she chuckles) No offense little boy but uh you look like my oldest son. And he's nothing but trouble. Mary: Yvonne, shut up. Yvonne: What? I said no offense. I'm just saying are you sure you a doctor? (Alex looks peeved at this. Yvonne is interrupted by her phone ringing and she picks it up) Yvonne: Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, we fine. Yeah this redneck tried to outrun the train. (Alex and the nurse continue wheeling Mary away) (Cut to Izzie coming out a trauma room. She hears Meredith in the ER. behind some curtains going Ow) Meredith: Ow ... Ow ... Ow ... (Izzie pulls back the curtains and sees Meredith trying to insert an IV into her self) Izzie: What're you doing? Meredith: Trying to insert my banana bag. (Izzie smiles) Which sounds vaguely dirty but it isn't. Izzie (pulling the curtain closed): I can do it. (Izzie starts to putting in the IV for Meredith) Meredith:: So, how's going with Addison? Bad mood? Good mood? Yay my husband picked me mood? Izzie: Ah I think it's the more of the 'I hate the smell of charred flesh mood'. Meredith: Before you judge me. I know there was a train accident. People are very badly hurt. And that I'm a vapid narcissist when you mix me with alcohol. (Izzie smiles) In case you were wondering. I know that. Izzie: Well, for what it's worth, I take issue with her salmon colored scrubs. I mean what self respecting surgeon wears salmon colored scrubs? Meredith (nods): This is what I'm saying. Izzie: Yeah. (She chuckles and leaves) (Cut to the OR where Derek and Richard are repairing the nerves of the guy's leg. Cristina is off to the side cleaning the severed leg) Richard (calls out): Yang. How's that wound looking? Cristina: Pretty clean. Some dirt and gravel mostly. Richard (to Derek): This guy was lucky. It's a guillotine injury. We do this right he'll have full use of his leg. (To another doctor) Um more irrigation right there. (A pager goes off. There is a tray filled with various pagers. A doctor picks it up and reads it) Doctor: Dr. Shepherd. (Richard lifts his head up and starts blinking in the light like his head hurts. Derek notices this) Derek: It'll wait. Richard: Hmm. I'm fine Derek. Just adjusting to the light. Derek (shakes his head): I'm saying that there's no shame in taking a little more time off. Doesn't make you old or tired or rusty, it ... (Richard gives him a look) Yeah ok that came out wrong. Richard: You're the only attending neurosurgeon and you're obviously needed elsewhere. And I'm fine here. Doctor: Dr. Shepherd? (Derek nods at Richard and steps away from the surgery) Derek: Ok. Page me if you need me. (Derek leaves) Richard: When you finished cleaning that wound you can help me here Dr. Yang. (Cristina looks concerned about something, looking at the severed leg and then back at the surgery) Richard: Is the wound clean, Yang? Cristina: Yes sir. (She looks back at the severed leg) I ... but ... Richard: But what? (She looks back at Richard who speaks angrily) If your plan is to be a watchdog for Dr. Shepherd or if you think your job here is to baby-sit me then you can think again. I've been a surgeon longer than you've been breathing. And if I were not ready to be in this OR, I would say so. Is that understood? Cristina: Yes sir. Richard: Now do we have a problem Yang? Cristina: Uh yes! (He gives her look) No sir. I mean I'm thrilled to learn and I'm grateful to be here it's just (she glances back at the severed leg) that ah ... (she wheels over the severed leg) Sorry. His legs. (She lifts up the sheet covering the patient's intact leg) Cristina: They're both left. Richard (annoyed): Find the man's leg, Yang. Find it now. Cristina: Yes, sir. (She heads out) (Cut to the X-ray observation room. George & Dr. Bailey are standing looking at the scans. Dr. Burke is sitting on a chair looking at them on a computer screen. Meredith is just standing off to the side with her banana bag IV) George: Is, is it going straight through her spine? Bailey: It is. T8's completely crushed. (Derek walks in) Derek: Hey. (He notices Meredith with her bag) What happened? Meredith: Uh, tequila. (He nods) Bailey: I'm keeping an eye on her. (He nods again and then notices the x-rays) Derek: Look at this. These people are still alive? George: They're still making small talk. Bailey: Pole's tamponading the wound as far as we can see. Derek (looking at the x-ray): It's hitting the aorta. Burke: And look at him. It's right in line with his inferior vena cava. George: Is there anyway to operate without separating them? (Dr. Burke shakes his head) Derek: No. George: But if we move the poll ... Bailey: They'll both bleed out. Burke: What if we don't move the poll? What if we move one of the patients off the poll to get the saw in there? Then we can hold the pole steady in the other one. Move it very slowly and repair the damage as we go. George: Who? Which would you move? (Derek glances at Meredith who stares back at him) Burke: With her aortic injuries, her chances of survival are extremely slim no matter what we do. But if we move her, we have a real sht of saving him. Derek: Well I could argue since her injuries are so extensive we should move him. Give her the best sht we can. Meredith: So basically whoever you move doesn't stand a chance? (They all glance at her unsettled) So how do you choose? How do you decide who gets to live? (Outside SGH) (Hallway) (Cut to Derek and Burke walking down the hallway talking. Bailey and Meredith are walking behind them a few feet a way) Burke: We have to make this call soon if we want our sht of saving either one of them. Derek: I'd like to examine them before I weigh in. Burke: I'll wait for your page. Derek: Thank you. (Dr. Burke walks off. Derek turns around and attempts to talk to Meredith) Derek: Dr. Grey ... Bailey (interrupts): Uh Dr. Grey needs to get herself a blood alcohol test before practicing any medicine tonight. Meredith: What? No. I'm totally fine. Look. (She starts putting her arms out and then bringing her finger tips to her nose. Derek looks amused. Bailey gives him a look) Totally fine. Derek (to Bailey): Right, ok. (He wanders off) Meredith: I'm fine. Bailey: Regretting that last sh*t about now aren't you? (Cut to Cristina rummaging through an ambulance outside, tearing it apart) Jill the paramedic: What are you doing in here? Cristina: Uh the leg you brought in with the amputee... Jill: I didn't bring in an amputee. Cristina: Ok well uh one of you did and it's ah... Jill (chuckles interrupting): Because all paramedics look alike to you, right ... Doctor? Cristina: Ok, really, ah um I can not straddle another giant ego right now. I'm already doing the splits so I need a right leg, right now, or the chief of surgery is going to take away my pretty blue scrubs. Jill: When the train de-railed it ht an overpass. The roof of the dining car was sheared off and it sliced through a passenger car. There were multiple decapitations. Your guy can live without his leg. Cristina: This is so not about the leg. Or the guy. But thank you. (She starts walking back into the hospital but turns around sarcastic) For all that you do. Really. Thanks. (Cut back to ER ward where Yvonne is still on the phone being annoying. Alex is treating a pregnant woman named Jana in a neck brace who is in the bed next to Mary. Alex annoyed closes though curtain in Yvonne's face so he doesn't have to see her) Alex: All right. Scars shouldn't be too bad. Jana: Can you tell me? My friend ... she's pregnant too. She was put in a different ambulance. She was burnt. Do you know where she is? Alex: If she's not down here she should be up in maternity. Jana: Ok. I need to see her. (Jana starts getting out of her hospital bed) Alex: Hold on. We're not finished here. We still have to do a full check. Jana: My baby's fine. I can feel her kicking. I gotta see Brooke. (Jana starts walking off with her IV) Alex (walking quickly after her): Uh wait you can't just leave like that. Just wait ... come here, come here. (Camera pans back through a window to an adjacent hallway that can look into the ER ward. George and Meredith are sitting below the window) Meredith: Ow. (George is giving an IV to take a sample of Meredith's blood) Meredith: Ow. Shh. George: Sorry. Meredith: So you operated on a heart earlier George. You think you could draw a little blood. George: I rocked that heart. Meredith: Yeah you did. George: I think I'm strung out on the scalpel. Meredith (smiling): Nothing wrong with that. George: So any news? About ... Meredith: No. I can't read him. George: You know, I think, I think it's pretty amazing you even gave him the choice. And I think for what it's worth I think he's crazy if he doesn't pick you. (Cristina comes up hurriedly up to them) Cristina: Please tell me you've seen a right leg. A cleanly severed right leg? George: No. (Cristina hurries off) Meredith: How weird is this job? George: Weird. (Cut to Jana walking fast into Brooke's maternity room. Addison is in there. Izzie is outside at the nurse's station) Jana: Brooke! Brooke: Jana? (Jana walks up to Brooke and they smile) Thank god. (Alex walks in after Jana. Addison comes to the door to speak to him. Izzie walks up to the door behind Alex) Addison: Dr. Karev? Alex: I couldn't stop her ... Addison (cuts him off): She was on the train? Alex: Yeah, yes. Addison (slightly angry): You did an ultrasound? (Alex is silent) Cleared her C-spine? Is there any reason you can think that this patient should be wandering around the hospital unattended? Alex: She's not unattended. I came up with her. She's, she's ... Addison (interrupts angry): You can leave now. ... Dr. Karev. (Alex walks off upset. Addison walks up to Izzie) Addison: Irresponsible. Even for an intern. (Izzie gives her a look) What you disagree? Izzie: She wanted to see her friend. I mean what was he supposed to do tackle her? Addison: Dr. Stevens, why don't you get our new patient into a bed? Shall we? (Izzie nods and they walk to Brooke & Jana) (Cut to a trauma room where Derek is testing to see if Bonnie has any feeling in her feet) Derek: Can you feel that Miss Krasnoff? Bonnie: Hmm. You're a cute Doctor. Cute doctors get to call me by my first name. Derek (smiling): Bonnie? Bonnie (smiles): Mmm. Derek: Ok, Bonnie. Do you feel that Bonnie? Bonnie: Can I feel what? Oh well I guess that's a no. (George enters the room) George: Excuse me, Dr Shepherd? Derek: Yes? George: I got the labs. Derek: Oh great. Thank you. (He takes the labs of George and hands him a patient's chart) Here you go. Hold that please. (He looks over the labs) Derek: Could you try to wiggle your toes Mr. Maynard? (Tom wiggles his toes but due to his position can't see) Tom: Are they moving? Derek: Yes, they are. Tom (half chuckles happy): Oh good. That's good right? Derek: Yes it is. Yes. It is. Bonnie: What about me? Are mine moving? (Derek moves to have a closer look. They're not moving. George also sees this) Derek: Yes, they are. Bonnie (smiles in relief): Yay me. (George looks at Derek questioningly, but Derek says nothing) Tom: Dr ... ah Shepherd is it? Derek: Yes it is. Tom: Dr. Shepherd ... Bonnie and I ... are we gonna live through this? Bonnie: Now that's just morose Tom. Tom: I'm sorry dear. (To Derek) ... Doctor? Derek: We're gonna do everything we can Mr. Maynard. (Cut back to OR with Richard and the amputee. Cristina comes in with a red garbage bag with a leg inside it. She hands it over to another Doctor) Richard: About time Yang. I was starting think here my work would be wasted. Cristina: So sorry. It wasn't easy to find. I took the liberty of checking the wound and it's very clean cut. Well preserved. Doctor: Ah, Dr. Webber ... (She shows him the amputated right leg. He looks at it. It's a shaven leg with red nail polish on the toe nails, a female leg. Richard looks annoyed and looks over at Cristina who is getting re-scrubbed up) Cristina: Sir? Richard: Notice anything else about that leg? Anything other than that very clean cut. (Cristina looks confused) Did you happen to notice for example that it was shaved recently? And manicured? (Angry now) Take a look at my patient, Dr. Yang! Does he look like a man who woke up and shaved one of his legs this morning? Cristina (backing out of the O.R slowly): No. I'll go find the um right ... the right, right leg. The right, right ... Richard (interrupts): Thank you! (Cut to George & Derek looking at the pole people's scans again. Dr. Burke & Bailey walk in) Burke: Where are we? Derek: You were right. Her vitals are erratic. Pulse is weak. Spine severed. I was hoping it didn't ht from that angle. It just can't miss the aorta. Bailey: What about him? Think he can live? Derek: He's got better odds. Bailey (to George): Alright. Let OR 1 know we're coming. (George starts walking off) Burke: Oh and O'Malley. (George stops) Close off the gallery. We don't need an audience for this. George: She's cracking jokes. How do you tell somebody that she's gonna be dad in a few minutes when she's sitting up cracking jokes? (They all look at George sad. George walks off) (Cut back to ER ward where Alex is walking to a talk to a nurse. He is interrupted by Yvonne who is sitting down next to Mary, lying her head on Mary's bed) Yvonne: Excuse me. Is there any chance that we can get out sometime this year? Alex: Well the labs backed up (Yvonne rolls her eyes) and so is radiology. Can't discharge your friend until I'm certain she doesn't have any internal injuries. (Yvonne's mobile starts ringing again and she answers. Alex starts talking with the nurse) Yvonne: Hello? Yeah we still here. Cause the Doctor is friggin useless (Alex looks over at this) Mmm hmm. (Alex walks off and passes Cristina who's at the corner of a hallway on a telephone) Cristina: I realize you're dealing with a lot of carnage. I'm, I'm asking if you could maybe ... sift through some that carnage and find it ... (there's a click noise and then dial tone) Hello? (She hangs up the phone frustrated) Damn it. (Dr. Burke up to her in the hallway) Burke: Cristina. You paged me? Cristina (upset): If I don't find this leg, the chief is gonna cut me from this program. And I cannot go back home, Burke. It is too sunny in Los Angeles. It's sunny everyday! Burke: And you paged me because? Cristina (loud): I need you to help me find the leg! I checked the board. You're not in surgery right? (Burke looks confused) You're my boyfriend. I mean... I know I don't have much experience with this kind of thing but (Dr. Burke tries not to smile) aren't boyfriends supposed to help in situations like this. Burke (serious): Cristina, when we're on duty I can't be your boyfriend. Cristina: Okay, so ah when we're on duty I can have sex with some one else? Burke: Dr. Yang. I'm walking away now. (He starts walking off) Cristina: Fine. Fine! But when the chief cuts me, you might re-think this! (Cut to Alex & Meredith standing at on open doorway facing each other resting against the edges outside the Blood labs) Meredith: Addison yelled at you in front of a patient? Alex: She didn't exactly yell. (Meredith just looks at him expectantly. He sighs) Fine. She's Satan's whore. Meredith: Thank you. ... So did you yell back? Alex: No. Meredith: Dude, you lost your mojo. Alex: Excuse you? Meredith: I was trying to talk boy. Alex (frustrated): O'Malley plugs a hole with his finger and everyone walks around like he's some kind of hero. I have one off day. Meredith: You chickened out. Alex (chuckles): I hesitated briefly. Meredith: Why didn't you kiss Izzie? Alex (stops smiling): And now I'm leaving. (He moves to walk off but Cristina comes running up to them upset) Cristina: It's not in the morgue. I've looked in the ambulances and the E.R. How's one bloody hairy leg gonna destroy my career? (She runs off. Meredith looks at Alex as if to say 'what was that?') Lab Tech (from Blood Lab bench): Dr. Karev. (Alex wanders over, takes the labs and starts walking off) Meredith: I hope you find your mojo, Alex. I find you disturbing without it. Alex (calls back): Me too. (Meredith leans back against the doorway and hits her head) Meredith: Ow. (Trauma room) (Bailey, George & Derek are in there with Bonnie & Tom who are looking apprehensive) Derek: This is hard, because your body is in a certain amount of shock. It's preventing you from feeling pain. (Burke walks in) Feeling the extent of your injuries. Bonnie (softly): Dr. Shepherd. We have a metal pole cutting a path through our insides. I don't know about Tom here, but I didn't expect to walk out of here anytime soon. (George looks upset) So ... whatever it is you have to say just please ... say it. Derek: Okay Bonnie. (he nods slightly) ... In order to operate on Mr. Maynard, we have to separate you two. In order to do that, we have to move you backwards off the pole. Tom: Can't you just pull the pole out of both of us? (Derek shakes his head no slightly at Bonnie) Burke: Well if we did that, you would both start bleeding very quickly. Too quickly. Right now the pole is plugging the wounds. Once removed, the organs will shift and there's a great deal of damage. Bonnie (trying not to cry): So if you move me, I'll die? (There's a little bit of silence) Derek: We're gonna do everything we can to ... (Bonnie starts crying softly) Tom (interrupts): No. No. If anyone body has to go it should be me. You just move ... Burke (interrupts): No. Mr. Maynard ... Mr. Maynard your injuries are less extensive. (Dr. Shepherd takes Bonnie's hand and rubs it soothingly) If we pull the pole from you as we operate around it, we have a better chance at repairing the damage. Tom: It's not right. It's not fair. Bonnie (smiling sadly): Shh Tom. It's not fair either way. ... Is ah, is my Danny ... is he here yet? George: There are delays at the airport, ah the storm. Bailey: Uh we could wait but ah the longer we do the higher the risk of infection for the ... Bonnie (interrupts sad): No, no. This is better. Huh. Danny, he wouldn't understand. I've had a couple of hours to, you know, (She takes a deep breath) process all of this. But if, if he had to see me ... talk to me like this ... well, I just think it would be too hard. (Cut to Brooke & Jana's maternity hospital room. Brooke is lying on her side in bed and Jana is sitting next to her on a chair doing deep breathing with her. Izzie is administering an injection on Brooke with Addison watching) Addison: Right there. In between the vertebral spaces. Don't be shy about pressure. Jana (to Brooke): That's good. You are doing so good. (Patricia, Richard's assistant pops into the room with some clip boards) Patricia: Somebody called for a notary? Brooke: I asked for a lawyer. Patricia: I couldn't get one at this time of night but the hospital has pretty standard forms. It just says in the case of death or permanent vegetative state, that your child will remain the custody of ... and then we'll put her name in. Jana: Wait, uh what? (To Addison) Who's dying here? Addison: There's some danger. With any surgery, there's danger. But with the trauma of Brooke's burns there's an additional risk of shock. She just wants to be certain. Jana: That's ridiculous. (To Brooke) You're being ridiculous. You're gonna be fine, do you hear me? Brooke: I hear you but we still have to sign the forms unless you want our son to end up with my mom. (Jana takes the forms of Patricia and hands some to Brooke. They start signing them) Izzie: How long have you two been together? Brooke: Since third grade. Jana: We're not lovers. We're best friends. We just wanted our kids to have two parents. So we got a sperm donor. Addison: The same donor? So you're babies are brother and sister? (Jana nods) Patricia: Oh how cool is that. (Izzie and Addison smile) Izzie: It's ah ... wow. (Jana's water breaks) Jana: Wet. Izzie: What? Patricia (looking down): Oh. Jana: I'm wet. Izzie: Oh god. Jana: I think my water just broke. (Cut to Alex in ER ward. He walks up to Mary's bed. Yvonne is still sitting in the chair and resting her head on Mary's bed but looks asleep) Alex: Good news. You've a got a broken rib but we're gonna give you some pain Kllers and uh (Yvonne's really annoying ring tone starts going off again) after that you should be good to go. Mary: Thank you. (The phone continues to ring but Yvonne doesn't move to answer it) Yvonne, answer your phone. (Alex looks annoyed but continues to look at his chart. Mary concerned sits up) Yvonne. Yvonne? (She gently shakes her but Yvonne falls to the floor of the hospital floor unconscious) Mary: Yvonne! (Alex rushes to Yvonne's side checking her pulse) Alex: Code blue! I need some help over here. Mary: Yvonne! (Cut to a trauma room where Yvonne is lying on a hospital gurney. Alex is performing CPR. A nurse and ER resident is also there. Mary is standing at the door panicked) Alex: Push one of epi. Holds CPR. Nurse: Her abdomen is distended. It's rock solid. She's lost too much blood. She's been bleeding for hours. Mary: There's no blood. She's not bleeding. Nurse: She was bleeding internally. Alex: She didn't say anything. She wasn't ... she wasn't even a patient. ... I didn't know. Nurse: Dr. Karev, she's gone. Mary: No. No. No. (Alex stops CPR) No, no, no! Yvonne! Alex: I'm sorry. Time of death, 2:51 Mary: No, no, no, no, no. No!

Addison: Brooke we've booked an O.R but they're not gonna hold it for long so we need to go now. Brooke: Right now? But we're supposed to be together. We took classes. Addison: I'm sorry but we can't wait. Jana: That's ok Brookie. You go have your C-section and enjoy those drugs this is already not fun for my vagina. Addison (motions for Izzie to start moving Brooke's bed): Dr. Stevens? Brooke (indicating Izzie): No if I have to go, she has to stay. Someone has to stay with Jana. Please. Addison: Brooke uh Dr. Stevens is a surgeon but I'm gonna find you some ... Izzie (interrupts): It's ok. I'll stay. Addison: Ok. (Brooke smiles her thanks to Izzie. Addison starts moving Brooke's bed out of the room) Jana: Brookie, you stay alive ok? Brooke: You too. (Cut to Alex pacing outside the entrance to the ER upset, frustrated and angry. He sits on a bench against the wall) Alex: Damn it! (He puts his head in hands. Stan the paramedic walks up to him with a plastic bag) Stan: Hey Doc! Alex (angry yells): What?!? Stan: Easy kller. Jill said you guys were freaking out looking for this leg. Alex (looks at the leg suddenly excited): Thank you. (Alex takes the leg and heads back into the hospital) Stan: No problem. Alex: Right on. (Cut to OR where Cristina walks back in without the leg looking resigned) Cristina: Chief Webber. I'm extremely sorry, I tried to look everywhere, but I ...

(Dr. Adams & Derek walk into the OR) Derek: This is Dr. Adams, our anesthesiologist. When you're ready, he's gonna put you to sleep. Bonnie: So it's not gonna hurt? Dr. Adams: It won't hurt a bit. Bonnie: Good. That's good. ... Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Yes? Bonnie: You're gonna be the one to talk to my Danny, right? Derek: Yes. Bonnie: Ok. Derek: Ok. ... What would you like me to tell him? (Derek leans in to hear what Bonnie wants him to say. Camera pans across through window into cleansing/sterilizing room. George, Dr. Bailey & Dr. Burke are getting washed up and looking into the OR) Bailey: Why do I feel we're about to kll this girl? (Meredith walks into the room) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, my labs are in.

Dr. Adams: How are we going to do this? Burke: Team 1 continues, sab his body. Team 2 move her back and let's get the saw in there. This has to be fast and smooth, people.

Izzie: You are. Addison: Yes. And you show a real gift with my specialty. And I have a lot to teach if you wanna learn. ... So? Izzie (shrugs even more uncomfortable): So? Addison: So, when you decide how important it is for you to hate me, let me know. (Addison walks off) (Cut to a waiting room where Derek & Dr. Bailey are talking with a young man, Danny, Bonnie's fianc�. George & Meredith at a nurse's station watch from afar) Danny: Did she ah ... did she suffer? Derek: No. Her injuries prevented her from ... no, she wasn't in any pain. Danny: Good. That's ...

She has to work here. With him. With them. Everyone knows. (Camera pans across to the other side of the lockers where Meredith is listening to them despondently) MVO: Funny thing is once we grow up, learn our words and really start talking; the harder it becomes to know what to say or how to ask for what we really need.

Burke (interrupts): O'Malley. Alex: I know, I know the answer. Burke: I'm asking O'Malley. George: Scar tissue is too deep.

Cristina & Izzie (point at each other): Hers. (Shane looks confused) Debbie: Who transferred him? I don't have any paperwork, any transfer documents. Cristina (dismissive): Give me a break. We shuffle rooms all the time. You know if ah we need a bedpan changed, um we'll let you know. (She grabs a curtain and closes to conceal Shane) Debbie: Okay doctor you do that. (Debbie leaves) Meredith: Okay where's his chart? (Cristina & Izzie look at each other) Don't tell me you don't have his chart. You steal a patient and you don't take the chart. Cristina (to Izzie): That was your job. Izzie: Yeah I was on lookout. (Cut to Psych office. An Indian psych intern, Raj is sitting there looking through some files. Meredith comes to the window and knocks on it. He looks confused and opens the window for Meredith) Meredith: How you doing? You good? (He looks thoroughly confused. Behind him at the same time at the doorway, Izzie & Cristina attempt to steal Shane's patient chart) Meredith: You look good. Come on we're friends. Raj: What's my name? (Meredith looks to his name badge, but he covers it quickly with his hand) Meredith: Um. Alright. So I don't know your name. (He turns around suspiciously but Izzie & Cristina duck out of view) Meredith: It's not like we can't talk. (He turns back to face Meredith) You don't have to be a surgeon for me to talk to you, you know. Raj (sarcastic): Really? Meredith: Really. Raj: Cause I thought you only talk to attendings. (Cristina grabs the chart & runs out. Raj closes the window in front of Meredith's face) (Cut to patient room where a young asian girl named Nicole is sitting in a wheelchair. Her parents are with her. Dr. Shepherd & Alex are in the room as well) Derek: Now Nicole you've been having problems with spasticity? Nicole: Mom? Mrs. Verma: She's says the spasms make her legs dance. Mr. Verma: We just want to make things a little easier for her. She starts college this fall. (Nicole smiles shyly at Alex who smiles back) Derek: Ah. Mrs. Verma: Seattle Community. Right down the street from us. Mr. Verma: Not that she wouldn't have her pick of schools out of state. Mrs. Verma: But she's not ready for that yet. Alex (winking at Nicole): Why, not because she's in a wheelchair? Derek: Has Dr. Ostfeld named something called a cystoplasty? No? It's an operation to enlarge Nicole's bladder. It creates an opening called a stoma. It's improved the quality of life in a lot of my paralysis patients. Mr. Verma: We toyed with the idea a few years ago. Mrs. Verma: It's not for us. Mr. Verma: Maybe we should re-visit it. Mrs. Verma: Re-visit an invasive risky procedure that's got a 20 percent failure rate? I don't think so. Derek: Nicole, it's something worth considering. It means you wouldn't have to wear a catheter all the time. Not to mention the medical benefits, it ah would improve your quality of life. You know? You'd be like girls your own age. You'd be in control of your own bladder, no messy bags. You'd have a more normal sex life. (Nicole looks down shyly at this. Her mother looks extremely uncomfortable by the idea) Derek: You know when that becomes an issue, of course. Mrs. Verma (to Nicole): We're here for the pain procedure. That's it. (Cut to Derek & Alex outside in the hallway) Alex: That girl and her mom share the same brain. She's not getting that surgery. Derek: I want you to take Nicole with you, everywhere you go today. Take her to labs, take her to coffee, take her anywhere. Just get her away from her parents. Alex: You want me to baby-sit the wheelchair chick? Derek: Nicole. She thinks you're cute. She's a teenager, which means she might even listen to you. Alex (accusingly): You want me to convince her to get that surgery. Derek: I want you to convince her to make the decision for herself. Alex: And how am I supposed to do that? Derek: Dr. Karev, you're creative. You'll think of something. Thank you. (Derek walks off) (Cut to Mrs. Griswold's room. Dr. Burke is doing a physical exam on her. George is there as well. Mr. Griswold is running around the room doing stuff for his wife) Burke: This will be an extensive operation, even for an open heart veteran like yourself. Mrs. Griswold: My room was bigger last time. It was brighter. More sun. (to her husband) Alan this water is warm, I need more ice. (Mr. Griswold hurries to grab more ice) Burke: I'm sending you in for a nuclear scan. Then we'll get you into the OR this afternoon. You do understand all of the risks? Mrs. Griswold: I've been through it too many times to not understand the risks. (to her husband in demanding voice) Get the blinds. Open the blinds. This room is depressing. (Mr. Griswold rushes to open the blinds) Burke: I'll check back a little later. (Mr. Griswold opens the blinds, but his wife makes a face indicating it's too bright so he tries to adjust it. Dr. Burke & George start heading out of the room) Burke: Take her for a thallium scan. Pick up her x-rays on the way. George: Dr. Burke, thank you for choosing me to assist you today. Burke: You're my guy, O'Malley. George: You I'm, I am? I mean ... yeah. Mrs. Griswold (to her husband): Hand me the tissues. ... No, no, no wait. Hospital have germs, get my hand sanitizer out of my case. (Dr. Burke & George walk out of the room) George: Why would you be with someone who makes you that unhappy? Burke: Excuse me? George: I mean like, well like you're happy with Cristina. I mean, she's happy. Well happier. You know, Cristina happy which is not normal people's happy but ... (Dr. Burke just stares at him. George gets a little uncomfortable) You know happy since you guys started ah ... (George realizes he should just stop talking) Scans I'm on it. I'm your guy. (Dr. Burke walks off) George: And I'm an idiot. (Cut to Cristina, Meredith & Izzie coming out of an elevator looking over Shane's chart excitedly. They run into Derek without noticing) Derek: Hi. Hello. Hi. Meredith, maybe we could you know ah talk? (Meredith just stares at him silent) Cristina & Izzie (shaking their heads): No. (They pull Meredith away) Derek: Okay. (Cut to Alex pushing Nicole in her wheelchair coming out of an elevator into a hallway) Alex: Beep beep. Nicole: What'd you do to get stuck with me? Alex: Nothing. Nicole: Come on, I know you're not just wheeling me around for kicks. Alex: No. I was late for rounds. Nicole: Why? Alex: Ah because I had things to do. (He sees Izzie, Meredith & Cristina walking down a hallway through some double doors) Hey Izzie! (They continue walking. He chases after her still pushing Nicole) Alex (calls out): Izzie! ... Hey dollface! (Izzie gestures for the others to continue. She turns around to face Alex) Alex: Oh I was gonna ask you a favor since you know maybe you're better with people than I am ... Izzie (interrupts, voice cold): No. (She turns to walk away) Alex: But you haven't even heard what ... (She turns back) Izzie (interrupts angry): No! No. You're like a broken record. God. You're only ever nice or friendly or anything when it's convenient for you. So no to your favor. No to you. No. (She starts walking off again) Alex: What's up with you? (She turns around again really pissed) Izzie (really angry): I put on a dress! I did my hair! I had one night off in 2 weeks and I used it on you. And what do I get? Nothing. No respect. No apology. You couldn't even be bothered to ... kiss me goodnight. You know what you're a coward and you're just as shallow as you seem. So I am done trying to be your friend or whatever. I'm over it. (She walks off down the hallway through some double doors. Alex looks stunned) Nicole: She's really mad at you. (Cut to Shane's room. His pregnant wife is sitting on his bed. Cristina is talking to her. Shane is in the bathroom, Meredith is outside waiting for him) Meredith: The urine sample is last thing we need, Mr. Herman. (Izzie walks into the room as well) Cristina: Ah, meet Shane's wife, Tina. Izzie: Hey. Cristina: She's also pregnant. (Shane comes out the bathroom with a jar of urine) Meredith: And can you tell us what precipitated the psychotic episode that got you admitted to the hospital. Shane: It wasn't an episode, ok? And I'm not psychotic. I am pregnant! I mean wouldn't, wouldn't you freak out if you were me? (to his wife) Honey did you bring it? Tina: Yeah, yeah. Shane: Oh good. (He starts rummaging around through a brown paper bag) I can prove to everyone I'm not crazy. (Raj the psych intern walks in) Raj: That is my patient! Izzie: Uh oh. Cristina: Yeah well he's ours now. And if you want to fight me for it, I'll guarantee you I'll win. (Shane has a stick and dips it into the urine jar. Bailey has entered the room at this point) Bailey: Now, what is going on in here? Cristina: Dr. Bailey, (to Shane) just a moment please. (to Bailey) Look at his abdomen. (Raj rushes over to them) Raj: It's a male hysterical pregnancy. It's a psych case. (He slaps Shane's stomach) And it's mine! Shane: It's not hysterical! I am pregnant. (Izzie is distracted by the pregnancy test stick Shane used) Raj: See? Psych! Cristina: No his belly is distended. There's no signs of ascites and I clearly feel a mass with deep palpation. Surgical. Izzie (softly): Guys. Shane (sees the stick): Told you I could prove it. Raj: Psych. Cristina: Surgical. Bailey: Eh, come on now. You're doctors. Act like it. (Izzie picks up the pregnancy stick) Izzie: Guys. Raj: Psych! Cristina: Surgical! Raj: Psych! Cristina: Surgical! Raj: Psych! Cristina: Surgical! Izzie (loudly): Guys! (They all look at her) Shane took a pregnancy test and it's positive. (Cristina glaring at Raj, hands Shane's chart to Bailey) Bailey: He's definitely a surgical patient now. (Cristina & Izzie exchange satisfied looks. Raj looks disappointed) (Cut to about a dozen people in Shane's room now. There's a photographer taking photos and Addison is doing an ultrasound) Bailey (softly to Izzie & Cristina): Do not think for a moment I condone stealing patients. That said ... way to go. Shane: The first pregnancy test I took was a joke, to make Tina laugh. Tina: We didn't think it would lead to ... you know, this. Addison: Mr. Herman, I can assure you, you are in no way pregnant. Shane: Wooh. It's a relief to hear it, you know officially. (Addison leaves the room) But hey, why was that stick blue? Bailey: Well that's what we're gonna find out. Uh, Stevens do a sht gn work up, including tumor markers. And get CT to make some room for us in line. Shane (weirded out by the camera): What's this for again? (Someone's beeper goes off) Izzie: Ah medical journals, monthly case reports. Cristina: Annual banquet highlight reels. (They both pose for a picture with Shane. A beeper goes off again) Bailey: Ah hey! Whose pager is that? Cristina: Um, um, mine. But I found him, so can someone else go? Bailey (interrupts): What do you ... no! We don't ignore pages Yang. (She makes a gesture for Cristina to leave. Cristina leaves the room. Shane is looking uncomfortable at the attention. Dr. Bailey makes her way to Shane's bedside with a measuring tape) Bailey: Excuse me. (She measures Shane's stomach) Here. Just need to get to the top. Meredith: We'll be finished soon right, Dr. Bailey? (Dr. Bailey doesn't appear to hear her as she too is also half posing for the photographer) (Cut to Cristina at a Nurse's desk. Debbie hands her a pile of patient charts) Debbie: Patient in 4243 needs a rectal. Then I've got 2 infected wounds, a foley, a grown abscess, 4 debridements and ah ... case of explsive diarrhea. Cristina: You're kidding me right? Debbie: I'm not known for my humor. Cristina: Ah uh why did you page me? ... ah none of these are my patients. Debbie: You're Bailey's intern right? Then these are you're patients. (A phone rings at the desk and Debbie answers) Debbie here. (Cut to Derek walking up some stairs in the hospital with Nicole's parents) Derek: A portion of the intestine is used to enlarge the bladder. Then we construct a pathway for a whole new belly button. It's a very tiny hole that's virtually invisible. She can wear a bikini and no one would ever know. Mrs. Verma: Why would she need a bikini? She doesn't know how to swim. Derek: She could to the beach. Lie in the sun. Hang out with her friends. Mr. Verma: Oh my god, she's so self conscious now. Derek: Right, exactly. Mr. Verma (to his wife): Nicole could have friends her own age Elaine. Mrs. Verma (to Derek): When did you say Nicole would be back? Derek: After her labs. Now just think about her future. Nicole could be independent. She could go to college anywhere. She could have a job, have her own apartment. Date. Get married. Mrs. Verma: These labs are taking a long time. Mr. Verma: She can spend more than 20 minutes away from us, Elaine. Mrs. Verma: I'm asking about my only child. Mr. Verma: She's not a child anymore. Mrs. Verma: She's my child. She'll always be my child. (Cut to George wheeling Mrs. Griswold in a wheelchair down a hospital hallway to get her nuclear scan. Mr. Griswold is walking with them) Mrs. Griswold: Alan! Mr. Griswold: Yes? Mrs. Griswold: Watch your step, you're hitting my chair. Mr. Griswold: I'm sorry. Mrs. Griswold: And hold onto my bag. Mr. Griswold: I've got it. Mrs. Griswold: And don't rummage through it. Mr. Griswold: I won't. (George hands Mrs. Griswold over to a tech at the scan room who takes Mrs. Griswold into the room. George & Mr. Griswold remain outside) Mr. Griswold: Please and thank yous were never her strong suit. George: You're a very patient person. Mr. Griswold: Years of practice. (The strap of Mrs. Griswold bag comes undone) Woops. (George takes the bag off him and starts putting the strap back in its place) Mr. Griswold: I just try to keep her calm. You know they didn't think they she was gonna survive the 1st surgery, let alone 3 more. Here it is 10 years later, she's still here. Yeah it's a miracle that she's still alive. That's what everyone says. George: What do you say? Mr. Griswold: Uh, it's right there in the vows. In sickness and in health, right? (George nods and hands Mr. Griswold the bag back fixed) Thanks. (Cut to Meredith, Cristina & Izzie eating lunch in the outdoor hospital cafeteria. Meredith is reading a magazine. George comes down and sits at their table with his food) George (annoyed): Pregnant guy? You had a pregnant guy and didn't tell me? Izzie: Well, we can get you floor space in the OR for 50 bucks. (Cristina chuckles) Meredith (serious): You're selling tickets and we don't even know what's wrong with him. Cristina: Whatever he's got inside has got to come out. We're just brokering a few deals. Izzie: Sort of like backstage passes. Want in on the cash? Meredith (shakes her head): No. George: I didn't need a pregnant guy! I was Burke's new go to guy. (speaks to Cristina) But that's over thanks to you. He didn't know that I knew about you two. Cristina: Stop talking. Izzie (smiles and then looks up at something): What on earth? (Alex wheels Nicole to their table with both their lunches. The rest of them look at him questioningly) Nicole: Hi ... I'm Alex's charity case. Cristina: Huh, I like her already. George: Are you volunteering? Alex: Don't ask. Izzie: Why? It's not like we can read your mind. It's not like we have any idea what's going on in your tiny, tiny, tiny little brain. Cristina: She has a point. (her pager goes off. frustrated) I am hungry! (She gets up and leaves) Nicole: So this is cool. A real live lunchtime. In a real cafeteria with trays and friends. Izzie: We're not his friends. George: Don't they have a cafeteria at your school? Nicole: I'm home schooled by my parents. Alex: That explains a lot. Nicole: So are you guys the cool kids around here or something? Meredith: What would make you think that? Nicole: It seems like everyone is talking about you. (Meredith looks at up at this from her magazine and sure enough people sitting at various tables are looking over and talking pointedly about Meredith. Meredith goes back to her magazine) (Cut to CT imaging, where Shane is about to get his CT scan. Meredith & Izzie are there) CT Tech: The guys and I were taking bets on who would get to scan this dude. (She gestures to a pocket full of money) Beers are on me tonight. Next up the wager on what this thing is. Meredith: You're taking bets? CT Tech: On what's inside his belly. You want in? 10 bucks. Izzie: Well we know its not fat, fluid or fetus, so ... (They peer close at the scanned images coming up on the screen) CT Tech: Jeez. Meredith: Are those teeth? Izzie (smiling): Cristina is gonna be so mad she missed this. (Cut to Cristina walking down a hallway to a patient's room in which the male nurse Tyler has just walked out of) Tyler: I was told to page you and only you if something like this came up. Cristina: Who told you? Bailey? (You can hear the patient vomiting from outside) No. Tyler: Oh yes. And all I can say is you must've made one serious faux pas. (He hands her a tub) Cristina: I hate vomit. Tyler (hands her cloth to cover her mouth): You're gonna need this. (He walks off. Cristina looks to the side and make's eye contact with Dr. Bailey who can only raise her eyebrows back at Cristina which can almost be interpreted as you deserve it. You can hear the patient vomit again) (Cut to Cristina walking up to Burke who is standing in front of the OR board. Their conversation is conducted in hushed tones) Cristina: Bailey knows. Burke: Knows what? Cristina (she stresses the 2nd word): She knows. Burke: Well, O'Malley knows, why not Bailey? Cristina: So you didn't tell her? Burke: Why would I do that? Cristina: This is bad. Burke: We have to manage the damage ourselves before this thing spins to far out of control. And that means coming clean to the chief. Cristina: What? Burke: If we come out into the open, then no one has anything to say. Cristina: No, no, no way. No way. Burke: That's the only way. Cristina: No. (Richard has walked up the hallway and is standing right behind them now) Richard: Good morning. Burke: Morning chief. Cristina: Ah thank you Dr. Burke. (she walks off) Burke: You're welcome. (to Richard) Great board Chief. (Burke leaves as well. Richard is left standing confused) (Cut to Mrs. Griswold's room where she is lying in bed again. Mr. Griswold is sitting on the bed opposite to her. George is taking her blood pressure) Mrs. Griswold (to her husband condescending): Could you make sure that they get the breathing tube out of my throat right after surgery this time? (to George) Are you trying to cut off my circulation? Mr. Griswold: He's just doing his job. Mrs. Griswold: What did you say? Mr. Griswold: I said he's just doing his job. Mrs. Griswold: Well I don't really care whose job he's doing, he's squeezing my arm off. Are you just gonna sit there? Mr. Griswold (takes a deep breath): Shut up, Kim. (she looks at him questioningly) Just shut up, huh? George (tries to interrupt): Hey. Mr. Griswold: You complain to me, about me ... (Mrs. Griswold's heart monitor starts beeping faster) George (tries again): Maybe ... Mr. Griswold (gets louder): Around me. All day! Everyday! A little silence would be nice. A few measly minutes of quiet. George: Mr. Griswold! Mr. Griswold (yells): Can't you just for once in your life just shut up? (Mrs. Griswold has trouble breathing and heart monitor beeps rapidly. George rushes to her) (Cut to Dr. Burke entering Mrs. Griswold's room where there a now a few nurses there as well) Burke: What do we got? George: She had a Levine sign. EKG shows ST elevations in the inferior leads. Burke: She's having a heart attck. Give her 4mg of morphine. Run nitro. 10 mics per minute. Lets do this fast so we can get her into surgery people. Mr. Griswold (sighs): I did this. ... I did this to her. (Cut to Shane's room where Izzie, Dr. Bailey & Richard are looking at Shane's CT scans. Meredith is at Shane's bedside. There are some other doctors and nurses in their taking pictures with their mobile phones or cameras and pointing and looking) Bailey: A mesenteric teratoma chief. Izzie: In an adult male! Richard: Is this possible? Bailey: It is now. Large bilobed cystic lesion. Izzie: With a solid calcified structure. Richard: A deformed mandible. (Richard walks up to Shane fascinated and checks out his stomach) Bailey: Labs show elevated HCG levels that explains the false positive on the pregnancy test. Izzie: Which also means ... Richard: ... probably malignant. Meredith (to Shane): You ok? You look a little green. (Shane sighs) I think he needs some air Chief. Richard: Deep breaths Mr. Herman. Shane (to Meredith): It's just that most of this medical speak goes right over my head. Izzie: You have what's called a teratoma. And it's really very rare in adults. Meredith: Which is why you're so popular. It's just a mass of cells that's probably been there your whole life only now ... Izzie: ... now it's growing. Shane: Yeah growing jawbones and toe nails and ah clumps of hair. Yeah I've been listening. Tina (a little upset): It's just that nobody's really talking to us. Meredith: Just about you. I know what that's like. (Cristina comes rushing into the room) Cristina: Uh what, what did I miss? Izzie: Ew, is that ... is that rectal jelly on your scrubs? (Cristina looks at her scrubs but then her pager goes off. Cristina half groans and leaves the room again. Meredith makes her way over to Dr. Bailey away from Shane's bedside) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, all the attention. All the people, they're making them panic. (Cut to Addison & Derek standing on the rooftop of some building in Seattle) Derek: You know when you said you found a lunch spot with a view I knew I should've taken you literally. Addison: I found it in my best of Seattle guide. It's hardly brown bagging and top of the Empire State building but ... they do have these cute little viewfinders. Derek: You always find something to complain about. Addison: Okay is there anything that you like about me anymore? Because if there is I really need to know now. Derek: Well I like that you like cute little viewfinders in every city you live in. Addison: I don't live here yet. (There's silence for a bit) Are you gonna stop talking to Meredith? Derek: I will. Addison: When? ... Today, tomorrow, next week? Derek: Maybe I'm not ready yet. Addison: Are you ever gonna be ready, Derek? Derek: What if I say no? Addison: Then I'm not moving here. Derek: Well, I guess we're at an impasse then. (Cut to Cristina walking up the stairs outside the O.R board, Burke is walking on the floor with OR board and calls out to her) Burke: Dr. Yang. We never finished our conversation. Cristina: Yes we did. We decided we're not gonna tell you know who about us. Burke: We decided? If you're worried about your career, your reputation, they're in much more danger if he hears about us through the grapevine. (Cristina comes back down the stairs to meet Burke) Cristina: He doesn't have to hear about us at all. Burke: Only he will. It's just a matter of time. Unless you're hesitating because of some, some different reason. Cristina: You are not thinking this through. Burke: Like not wanting to admit to this relationship at all. Cristina: We are a couple. Burke: Fine. (He walks off upset) Cristina: Burke. Burke: I said fine. (He continues walking) (Cut to Alex wheeling Nicole to the abandoned hallway hangout) Alex: So what's up with you not wanting to get this procedure? Nicole: I'm fine the way I am. Alex: Good point. Your choice. (He pushes her wheelchair away from him and goes to a cabinet and pulls out some medical texts. He sits on a hospital bed and starts reading) Nicole: So you're not gonna try and talk me into it? Alex: Right now I'm gonna study. Nicole: Nuclear something fancy name-ology. Is that why you were late? You were studying? Alex: No. Nicole: Is that girl Izzie your girlfriend? Alex: No. Nicole: Do you want her to be your girlfriend? Alex: Look I got stuck with you because I was late for rounds so if you don't mind kid, kinda busy. Nicole: I'm 18, you know. Alex: What? Nicole: I'm not a kid. I'm 18. And ... and I don't have to stay down here with you. I could go back to my room. Alex: So go. Nicole: Izzie's right. You're an ass. Alex: And I'm not an ass. Yeah okay I am an ass. But I'm a cute ass, right? Nicole (huffs): How come you didn't kiss her? Alex: I thought you were leaving. Nicole: If I had a chance to kiss someone I liked, I wouldn't hesitate. Alex: If I had the chance to lose the urine bag around my ankle I wouldn't hesitate either. Then again I don't let my mommy do all my talking for me. (He smirks at her) Nicole: I don't like you. Alex: Yes, you do. Nicole: Jerk. Alex: Motor mouth. Nicole: Baby-sitter. Alex: Two-wheeler. Nicole (chuckles): Now that's just politically incorrect. (Alex smiles back) (Cut to the O.R. where Burke is operating on Mrs. Griswold. George is standing next to him assisting) Burke: Ok, looks like Mrs. Griswold is doing well. (Camera pans up to the gallery where a bunch of interns are watching the surgery including Meredith, Izzie & Cristina. You can hear Dr. Burke murmuring about the surgery. Derek walks into the gallery. Everyone turns to look at him. He hesitates walking in and decides to stay at the doorway. They turn back to look at the surgery) Cristina: Look at that. Perfectly exposed partially numb beating heart. It's a beautiful thing. Burke: Code red! (Camera pans back down to the surgery. Mrs. Griswold's heart has caught on fre. Yes on fre!) Izzie (amazed): Oh I think it just caught on fre. George: The heart's on fre. Burke: We have to save Mrs. Griswold. Begin fre protocol. George: I'm on it. Burke: Code red! Begin fre protocol. (George puts out the fre with water) Move people! O'Malley disconnect the electrical leads. George: Got it. (George begins disconnecting the leads) Burke: Any unnecessary personnel in this room evacuate now! Shut down the O2. George: Already on it. (He shuts it down) Burke: Start manual respiration. (All the interns are standing watching the surgery intently) George: Okay I got the ambu bag. Starting manual respiration. Burke: I gotta control this bleeding. Her vitals are sab. We might just have a chance. (Cut to Izzie, Cristina & Meredith sitting on the stairs outside the OR board) Meredith (dazed): She was on fre. Izzie: I have never seen anything like that. What was that? Cristina: A freak accident. Meredith (dazed): She was on fre. Cristina: Uh yeah you've already said that. Meredith (still dazed): I know but she was. On fre. (George walks by the stairs) Cristina: George. You okay? George: She was on fre. (Cristina stands up when she sees Burke walking by) Cristina: Hey that was intense, are you okay? (he continues walking) Burke: I'm fine. O'Malley lets go. (They both walking. Cristina's pager goes off) Cristina (sighs): I'm so over this. (Cut to Cristina walking up to Dr. Bailey who is at a nurse's station. Cristina coughs lightly to get her attention) Bailey: Uh hey I heard a heard a heart caught on fre? In the OR? Cristina: I am the best intern you've got and you are wasting me on puke and boils. And I get it and I even deserve it but please you can't keep me away from this surgery. I earned this surgery! I stole this surgery! Bailey (genuinely confused): What are you talking about, Yang? Cristina: You. Punishing me. (Bailey raises her eyebrows at her as if to say what are you on about) You have no idea what I'm talking about do you? (Bailey just looks at her) Well then like who has been paging me all day? The nurses have been on me non-stop. Debbie (sitting at the computer at the nurse's station): A little bit of respect and you could have saved yourself a very long day, Dr. Yang. Bailey (to Cristina smiling): Pissing of the nurses? ... Stupid. Cristina: Well, I can still scrub in right? (Cut to Addison and Richard standing in an empty gallery by themselves watching a surgery) Addison: He wants me to move here Richard. To pick up everything and move! Richard: Don't stay for him Addison. Stay for me. Stay for yourself. Addison: Richard, I ... Richard (interrupts): In Seattle you can be front page news. With your reputation and the money I'm willing to put in promoting you. Seattle Grace will become one of the foremost neonatal hospitals west of Manhattan. (Addison smiles shyly. She looks at Richard who just stares back) Addison: You're serious? Richard: I'm ready to put my money where my mouth is. (Cut to Derek coming out a room into a hallway. He sees Meredith standing by herself at a nurse's desk a few feet away. He starts making towards her. All of sudden Bailey steps in front of him) Bailey: Turn around. Walk away. Derek: From what? Bailey: From my intern. Derek: But I wasn't ... Bailey: Uh yeah, yes you were. Come on, look. You can't do this. You don't have the right. Not anymore. Derek: I just wanna find out if she's okay. Bailey: No she's not! She's a human traffic accident and everybody is slowing down to look at the wreckage. She's doing the best she can with what she has left. Look I know you can't see this because you're in it but you can't help her now. It'll only make it worse. Walk away. Leave her to mend. (Derek sighs but doesn't move. Dr. Bailey gets exasperated) Bailey: Go on! (He nods slightly and walks off) (Cut to Alex wheeling Nicole down a hospital hallway) Nicole: It's not like I don't want the operation. I do you know. I want things. It's just ... what if I'm not ready? Alex: Ready for what? Nicole: For everything. For taking care of myself. For being on my own. For sex. For love. I've never had a boyfriend. I've never even been kissed. I'm like the oldest living prospective college freshman not to go to first base. Alex: Nah. Nicole: It's mortifying. Alex: There are way older losers than you. Trust me. (Nicole stops the wheels of the wheelchair. Alex comes around to face her) Nicole: Alex. Would you kiss me? Alex (chuckles): Wh, What? Nicole: I know you're a doctor, I'm your patient and, and it's against the rules but I would never tell anyone. (Alex looks down both sides of the hallways to see if anyone is looking. There is nobody else there. He bends down close to Nicole who closes her eyes expectantly) Alex: For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it be with someone you can't get out of your head. So that when your lips finally touch, you feel it everywhere. (Nicole opens her eyes) A kiss so hot and so deep you never wanna come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss, Nicole. Trust me, you don't want to. Cause when you find the right person to first kiss. (He grins) It's everything! (Nicole smiles broadly) (Cut to a waiting room where Mr. Griswold is sitting with his wife's bag. Dr. Burke & George are sitting across from him) Mr. Griswold: Her heart Burke: ...caught on fre? Yes. There will of course be an investigation but you should know this is not as unusual as it sounds. Your wife is going to be fine. She's well. Um we completed the operation and I expect that she will make a fully recovery. Mr. Griswold: Oh. (He has his hands covering his face and half chuckles) George: Mr. Griswold? (Mr. Griswold starts laughing hysterically briefly) Mr. Griswold: So that's it, isn't it? Her heart caught on fre in the middle of her 5th open heart operation. And she survived! (He bursts out laughing again) Mr. Griswold: Whoa. Well she's like some a, some mythical monster. (George looks concerned and stunned. Dr. Burke just kinda smiles at with Mr. Griswold) Mr. Griswold: She's never gonna die. Burke: Mr. Griswold? Mr. Griswold. Mr. Griswold: Mmm Hmm. Burke: I know this is an emotional time for you. Um if you would like to wait ... Mr. Griswold (interrupts): Wait? No, no. (He stands up) I'm not waiting any longer. (He thrusts Mrs. Griswold's bag into George's hands. He grabs his coat and starts to walk off) You tell her, tell her ... hell, tell her ... she'll survive without me! (He starts laughing again and wanders to the elevator. He salutes George & Dr. Burke who just sit there) (Cut to Shane's room where there are quiet a gathering of people now. Everyone is laughing and taking photos. Izzie & Cristina are taking money from people. Some are poking Shane's belly. Meredith comes into the room angry) Meredith (yells): What is going on in here? (They all stop talking) Everybody out! Out! Raj: We already have ... Meredith (walks further into the room, interrupting): Mr. Herman is a patient! (People start leaving the room) A surgical patient who's sick and embarrassed! (Shane & Tina look grateful) And tired of being stared at! (to Cristina & Izzie) You two! This isn't a zoo! Out! Out! Out! You know if all of you want to point and whisper and stare at me, knock yourselves out! Look at Meredith, isn't she sad and pathetic and heartbroken. Maybe she's gone mental, maybe I have! But leave Mr. Herman alone! (Almost everyone has left the room. She walks with Cristina & Izzie to the door) Meredith (to Cristina): You should be ashamed of yourself! (She closes the door behind her. Derek comes to an entrance outside the room and stares at Meredith. She notices) And what are you looking at? (Cut to Dr. Burke and George still sitting in the waiting room where Mr. Griswold left them. George has a dumbfounded look on his face and is holding Mrs. Griswold's bag on his lap. Dr. Burke looks like he's pondering) George (dazed): So, so do you tell his wife or should I? (Dr. Burke cracks up laughing. George chuckles with him) Burke (no longer laughing): I wanna thank you for helping me out in the surgery today, O'Malley. It was a high-pressure situation today and you were on top of it. George: Well thank you Dr. Burke. (Dr. Burke nods) And hey I'm sorry about before about you know (he puts his hand on Dr. Burke's shoulder) bringing up you and Cristina. (Dr. Burke stops smiling and just stares at him. George trails off) and just like ... (George sees his look and removes his hand. Dr. Burke stands up and starts walking away. George sighs and brings his head down to rest on Mrs. Griswold's bag as if to say I'm an idiot) Burke: You're still my guy, O'Malley. (George sits up quickly and nods but still looks slightly sick at himself) Still my guy. (Seattle Scenes) (SGH, ELEVATOR) (Cut to Shane lying in a hospital bed prepped for surgery. Tina is holding his hand. There are other doctor's there including Meredith) Shane (to Tina): I always thought I'd hold your hand in the delivery room. Meredith: I'll let you know when the surgery is over, ok? Tina: Ok. (The elevator dings open. She speaks to Shane): This is far as I go. (They start wheeling Shane down a hallway to an OR room) Shane: Hey Dr. Grey, don't let them show it off. You know, put it in a jar, pass it around or nothing. Meredith: Your teratoma? Shane: Yeah. I just feel weird about having my insides on display like that. You promise? Meredith: I promise. (Cut to Richard, Bailey, Cristina & Izzie are removing the teratoma from Shane's stomach. The gallery is crowded with people taking photos and watching. The song Get Through" by Mark Joseph plays from now until the end credits in the background) MVO: At the end of the day there are some things you just can't help but talk about. Bailey: You really want to be the one to dispose of this Grey? Meredith: I made a promise. (Cut to Burke walking down a mezzanine hallway. Cristina is towards him) Cristina: I am worried about my career. I'm worried about my reputation. I'm ... (She stops talking when Burke just keeps on walking past her. Burke slowly stops and walks back to her. They look at each other) Cristina: I will not be Meredith Grey. I busted my ass to get here and people won't make allowances for me ... Burke (interrupts): This is not about making allowances and you know that. Cristina: Everyone will know. Burke: That's the point. Cristina (stern): I don't want to tell the Chief, okay? I just ... don't. MVO: Some things we just don't want to hear. (Burke doesn't say anything and walks away from her) MVO: And some things we say because we can't be silent any longer. (Cut to Alex wheeling Nicole back to her room where Derek and her parents are waiting) Nicole: I'm getting the operation. Mrs. Verma: She's clearly not considering ... Mr. Verma (interrupts): She is considering. Nicole: I'm getting the operation. You two talk and talk but do you notice how you never ask me anything? Part of it is my fault, I let you do it. But I'm not cheating anymore. I'm not sitting back and giving over control because I am ready to handle things for myself. MVO: Some things are more than what you say. They're what you do. (Cut to Dr. Burke sitting in Richard's office, talking with him) Richard: I appreciate your candor, Preston. Burke: I can take whatever you threw at Shepherd. I don't need any special treatment here. Richard: And your not gonna get any. You're not married. You're not hiding. You came to me. You clearly value your relationship. Burke: Mmm hmm. Richard: What you two have together. (Cristina watches through a window from the outside) I understand that, Preston. And it does matter. MVO: Some things you say because there's no other choice. (Burke glances at Cristina. Richard turns around and looks at her. Cristina sighs and walks away looking mildly upset) (Cut to the therapist's office where Derek & Addison are sitting again with their therapist) Addison: I've given it a lot of consideration and I've decided to move to Seattle. Derek: And ah ... well Meredith won't be an issue anymore she's out of my life. It's well, it's taken care of. Therapist: Well ah I must say this is ah remarkable progress. I applaud both of you. You've ah taken a very significant leap. Addison: That's what marriage is about. Compromise, right? (She holds out her hand to Derek to take. He just looks at it) Derek: Yeah it's uh ah, well it's about ah well give and take. MVO: Some things you keep to yourself. (He puts out his hand to Addison who's already removed hers and then takes it back quickly) (Cut to Joe's bar. Joe is wiping some glasses. Izzie, Cristina & George are sitting at the bar. Izzie is counting cash from Shane's surgery. George is drinking a beer) Joe: She yelled at you? Izzie: Well, we probably deserved it. We sold 485 dollars worth of tickets to the surgery. Cristina (sly): Yeah. Izzie: Did you sell more? Cristina (pulls out a wad of cash from her back pocket): Oh, yeah. Izzie: You're out of control. (George & Joe chuckle. Meredith comes up to the bar and sits next to Izzie) Meredith: Hey, Joe. Joe: Hey. (They all keep quiet and just sip their drinks) Meredith (says as a statement): So you guys really don't have anything else to talk about. Izzie: No. Cristina: No. George: No. (Alex wanders through the door with a determined look on his face and walks right up to Izzie) MVO: And not too often ... but every now and then ... Izzie (confused): What? (Alex just stares at her) Izzie: What? MVO: ... some things simply speak for themselves. (Alex dips her backwards off the bar stool and kisses her passionately! They kiss for a bit. He pulls her back up) Alex: Good night. (And he leaves through door again) Izzie (breathless): Woo. Cristina (smiling): Wow. Izzie: Seriously. (She takes a large gulp of her wine. Meredith and Cristina start laughing. George holds his hand up in the air for a high five. Joe gives him one. Izzie whacks his hand away. They continue laughing)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x07 - Something to Talk About"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x08: Let It Be Original Airdate: 11/13/2005 Written by: Mimi Schmir Directed by: Lesli Linka Glatter (Ferry Boat/Seattle Scene) MVO: In the 8th grade, my English class had to read Romeo & Juliet. Then for extra credit, Mrs. Snyder made us act out all the parts. (Derek is on board the ferry and walks to the edge of the top deck, smiling at the sight before him) MVO: Sal Scafarillo was Romeo. As fate would have it, I was Juliet. (On the deck below him, Addison is standing staring out into the ocean. She turns around and sees Derek. He finally notices her and stops smiling. Addison waves but he just walks away. Addison turns semi-upset back to look at the ocean) MVO: All the other girls were jealous but I had a slightly different take. I told Mrs. Snyder that Juliet was an idiot. (Meredith is sitting in her jeep in the parking lot of SGH. Meredith is trying hid an obvious zit on her forehead by covering it with her hair, looking in her rearview mirror as a guide. A car pulls up next to her. And Addison looking as perfect as ever exits the car) MVO: For starters, she falls for the one guy she knows she can't have. Then she blames fate for her own bad decision. (Addison stares at Meredith. Meredith finally realizes someone is looking at her. Addison half waves and Meredith raises her hand back forcing a smile on her face) (SGH) (Izzie and Alex are walking along an open mezzanine hallway) IZZIE: You kissed me. ALEX: Yes I did. Izzie: Should we, I mean ... (she sighs) There's a discussion we could have, if you wanted to have one ... Alex: Izzie I kissed you. With tongue. And I plan to do it again and again. Get used to it. End of discussion. (A broad smile graces Izzie's face. Alex walks off) Izzie: Ok. (Meredith is sitting in her car getting a band-aid ready) MVO: Mrs. Snyder explained to me that when fate comes into play, choice sometimes goes out the window. (She puts a hello kitty band-aid on her forehead to cover the zit) Meredith: God. (Dr. Bailey and Richard are walking down a hallway in SGH) Richard: Congratulations. Bailey: For what? Richard: Fellowships. Five applications. Five offers. Do you know how rare that is? This is your year. Everybody wants to dance with you. Of course, Seattle Grace's fellowship program is the best. Bailey (distracted mutters): Oh yeah. Yeah. (She wanders a few feet away going over a patient file. Richard disconcerted follows her) Richard: You are taking my fellowship offer? Bailey (evasive): I don't know ... I haven't made a decision yet. (She walks off. Richard is slightly shocked) MVO: At the ripe old age of 13, I was very clear. That love like life is about making choices. (Meredith is walking in the hospital into a crowded elevator. Derek is right at the back of the elevator. A patient named Talia is having a conversation with her husband named Speed?) Talia: I would not wish this upon anyone. Literally it's like someone reached in and ripped my guts out. Speed: Baby you had food poisoning. Talia: I had one lousy restaurant clam. ... Wait a minute where's billing again? Derek & Meredith: The basement. (Meredith turns around and sees Derek at the back but turns back quickly) MVO: And fate has nothing to do with it. Talia: We're going the wrong way. (Seattle street where Cristina is meeting Burke on a corner. She's brought him coffee) Cristina: Coffee? Burke: Thank you. It's date night. Cristina: Yeah it's a night uh with a date. Burke: You forgot. Cristina: No. (He looks at her) Yesss. Burke: You wanna cancel? Cristina (trying not to smile): No. (They walk off together smiling) (George is standing a few feet away with a bagel in his hand) MVO: Everyone thinks it's so romantic. Romeo & Juliet. True love. How sad. (A bird's droppings falls directly onto George's bagel startling him out of his thoughts.) George: Oh! Crap! (He drops the bagel onto the ground. A pigeon flies down and starts pecking at his bagel) Sheesh! MVO: If Juliet was stupid enough to fall for the enemy, drink a bottle of poison and go to sleep in a mausoleum ... (George walks away from where he was standing. Almost instantly a loud thump can be heard. It appears a guy has fallen from the sky and landed on the pavement. George is dumbfounded) MVO: ... she deserved whatever she got. (OUTSIDE SGH) (SGH HOSPTIAL, TRAUMA ROOM) (Dr. Bailey and some other doctors and George are with the guy named Stu who fell lying on a hospital bed) Bailey: Window washer. Fell from fifth floor scaffolding. Obvious open tib/fib fracture but otherwise okay. George (amazed): Equal breast sounds. After a 5 storey fall he's got equal breast sounds! (Cristina walks into the room up to Bailey) This is unbelievable! Do you wanna hear? Bailey: Some how I believe you. Yang, get in there and palpate his abdomen. (Cristina goes to do that) Cristina: Does this hurt anywhere? Stu: No. George: You fell from the sky. 5 stories. And you only injured your leg. Cristina (disapproving): George. George: No. Don't George me. A few seconds there ago he would've landed on me. Cristina: Ok rolling on three please. 1, 2, 3. (A bunch of doctors lift Stu onto his side. There are splattered feathers on his back as well as dried blood) Bailey (grossed out): Oh. Cristina: Are these feathers? George: My life was saved by that pigeon. Bailey: Let's get some x-rays. And after that you might want to get in there and look for the rest of Tweety. George (picking up a feather, looks at and whispers): Thank you. (Meredith is talking with an elderly woman named Esme Sorrento lying in a hospital bed in a ward. Her husband Jed Sorrento is at her bedside) Jed: Esme wanted to wait until tomorrow to see her doctor but she hasn't been able to keep anything down since yesterday so I brought her in. Meredith: Mrs. Sorrento you have acute cholecystitis which means that your gall bladder may have to come out. Jed: She has gall stones? Esme (smiling): He watches cable; he thinks he's a doctor. Meredith (smiles): I'm giving you antibiotics and IV fluids to cool the gall bladder down and then I'm gonna go call Dr. Bailey and I'm going to see if surgery is the best way for us to go. Do you have any questions? Esme (looking at the band-aid): Honey what happened to your forehead? Meredith (shakes her head): Nothing. (The nurse's station where an agitated guy named Weiss is talking to one of the nurse's) Weiss: I've already told you I don't need an appointment. I'm not a patient; I am a friend from New York. (Derek sees the guy talking to the nurse) Derek: Weiss? Weiss: Derek! I've been looking for you. (Addison is walking down an open hallway, meeting a blonde woman named Savannah nicknamed Savvy) Addison (opens up her arms): Sav! Savvy: Oh it's good to see you. (They hug tightly) Addison: Oh why didn't you tell me you were coming? (They finally stop hugging) If I knew you were coming I would've taken the day off. Savvy: Well it was kinda last minute. Addison: Is everything okay? Are you alright? (Derek & Weiss are chatting in an empty staff/conference room sitting at table with cups of coffee) Weiss: A month ago her mother died. Ovarian cancer. Derek: Katherine died? (Weiss nods) I'm sorry. Weiss: That's Savvy, she's... I mean you know how close they were. I mean all she could think about was this breast and ovarian cancer gene. Derek: BRACA. (Addison is talking with Savvy in a similar room as before. Addison is looking over Savvy's file) Addison: A positive test result isn't the end of the world Sav. It just means that you have a gene mutation that could ... Savvy (interrupts softly): I know what it is. I've talked to the genetic counselor. I've been to my gynecologist ... and now I'm here. (Addison sits back. Savvy sits down across from her pleading) Addie, you're the best surgeon there is. Addison (smiles): True. (They both chuckle) But this isn't surgical. Savvy: Yes it is. Addison: No Sav, you understand you don't have cancer. Savvy: And I have no intention of getting it. (Addison stares at her quietly) Addison (shakes her head slightly): So you want me ... Savvy: I want you to take out my ovaries and the uterus. And when that's done ... you're gonna find the best person out there to cut off my breasts. (Trauma room where Stu is now lying on his stomach. Cristina & George are removing bits of the splattered pigeon from Stu's back) Stu: Beak? George & Cristina: Claw. Cristina: We need to widen this incision to take a better look. George: Alright. (George bends down close to Stu and speaks softly) Does your leg hurt a lot? Stu: I'm fine man. Just ... do your thing. (George goes back briefly to removing feathers but then leans back down) George: Is there anyone you'd like me to call? Stu (sighs): What for? George: You fell 5 stories and lived to tell about it. I'd kinda wanna shout it from the roof tops. (Cristina gives him a look) So to speak. (Speaks excitedly now) It's a miracle! You may not understand the medicine of it but a 5 story fall, your lungs should be collapsed, your back should be broken, your aorta should be totally severed ... Cristina (interrupts quietly): George, enough! George (whispers quietly to Stu who groans): I'm just saying there's a reason for this. You lived! We both did. Carpe diem man! Seize the day. Stu (to Cristina): Any chance you could make him leave? Cristina: I really, really wish I could. (Dr. Bailey enters with some x-rays of Stu's legs) Bailey: Mr. Vargas, your lower left leg bones are shattered. We need to get you into surgery. Stu: Oh great just my luck. Cristina (holds up the beak): Beak. George (amazed to Stu): Could I? Would you mind? Could I keep that? (Stu gives him a look) (Savvy, Addison, & Weiss are all sitting together at a table. Izzie is standing at the doorway watching) Savvy: My mother died of it. My aunt. My cousin! She's 37, has ovarian cancer. Weiss: But you don't. You don't have cancer! This is crazy Sav. Savvy: But I have the gene Weiss ... (Derek walks into the room) Addison (interrupts): which gives her up to an 85% chance of getting cancer Weiss. Derek: And a 15% chance she won't. Addison: What are you invited? Savvy: I'm not betting my life on 15%! Derek: Weiss asked me to come. (Derek kisses Savvy's head and sits down next to Weiss) Weiss: I thought it might help. Savvy: Help what? (to Derek) I'm sorry Derek, cause I love you and I'm really glad to see you but until you grow a uterus and watch your mother die from this disease you don't get ... you don't get a vote. Derek (to Addison): She tell you that they were trying to get pregnant? Addison: Yes she did. Derek: Having a hysterectomy is gonna throw a wrench into that. Savvy (adamant): Derek! We've been trying for months. Weiss: Why give up now? Savvy: Come on. We've talked about this. There are other ways to make a family Weiss. We can adopt, we can do ... Weiss (interrupts): Savvy I just ... Savvy (interrupts angry): No. NO! I'm not talking about this! Derek: Let's just take a step back. Take a deep breath and think about this. (He gives Addison a look who gives him one back annoyed) Savvy: I've already thought about it Derek. This ... this is going to happen. (Addison grabs Savvy's patient chart) Addison (she hands it to Izzie): Dr. Stevens get a complete history and her pre-op labs. Get her scheduled for a double mastectomy and consult Dr. Quenar from plastics for a reconstruction. Weiss (upset): Derek. Derek: Addison this conversation is not over! Addison: This ... She is my patient Derek! Doing a bilateral prophylactic oophorectomy and hysterectomy tomorrow. (Izzie looks amazed at what is going on. To Izzie) Get moving. (Derek & Addison are walking down a hallway together) Derek: Prophylactic surgery is extreme. Addison (sighs angry): This is has nothing to do with you. Why were you even in there? She came to me for medical consultation Derek. I'm her doctor. Me. Derek: Those are some of our closest friends. This isn't medical, it is personal. Addison: Fine. Okay if it's personal we should be dealing with them as a couple. Acting like a couple. Derek: What? What does that mean? Addison (she holds up her wedding ring on her hand): See the ring? Derek (angry): Don't go to the ring! Addison: The ring Derek! Remember? We're, we're hear at work you won't talk to me or on the ferry where you pretend not to see me or in couple's therapy 3 times a week where we're arguing about whether or not we should be in couple's therapy. What are we doing? Derek: This is not about us. Addison: It is! Medicine aside our friends are going through hell in there and we can't even act like we like each other long enough to help them. (Derek shakes his head and Addison walks off) (Esme is still lying in bed with her husband now sitting on a chair beside her bed holding her hand. Meredith is trying to insert an IV drip into her other arm) Esme: What's that other that's monogamous? Jed (smiles): I think it's bulls. Esme (to Meredith): Oh I know it's hard. I'm a pin cushion. Meredith: It's okay, don't worry. I won't stick until I find a good one. Jed (to Meredith): Otters mate for life you know. Meredith: Excuse me? Esme: As do bulls I suppose. Meredith: Okay I got it. Hold still. It's gonna take a second for the tube to fill. Esme: Hmm I've always like otters. Meredith: I've always been more of a dog person myself. (Esme laughs) (George and Meredith are at a nurse's desk. Cristina comes to the desk as well) George (excited): Shouldn't he be more excited? Maybe he's in shock, I dunno. But I mean he survived! It's huge! He's gotta realize that things happen for a reason. Meredith: Oh yeah my ex-boyfriend moved his wife to Seattle. Reason: To trture me. George: I'm serious. Meredith: So am I. Cristina: What's with the 'Hello Kitty' on your forehead? Meredith: I don't want to talk about it. Cristina: George can I sign out to you early? George: You don't want in on Stu's surgery? Cristina: Can't. I have a test date. (She lowers her voice) Burke is testing me. (She returns to a normal level) Plus I've already spent an hour picking bird parts out of the guy. I'm over it. George: Carpe diem. Meredith: Giant zit on my forehead and I'm beginning to look how I feel. Carpe that. George (loud & jubilant): This is the luckiest day in the world! Cristina: Tell that to the bird. (Izzie is putting a bandage on Savvy's arm after an injection. Savvy is lying in a hospital bed in a gown. Alex is there as well writing in Savvy's chart. Savvy is staring at Izzie) Savvy: Is it the kid thing? I saw your face upstairs. It's the kid thing for most people. (To herself) And the breasts. Oh and the total menopause like overnight. Izzie: It's a big step. Alex: Well I think it's brave. Savvy: Thank you. (To Izzie) And yes I'd love to be pregnant. I want a lot of things. I wanna ... sky dive. I'd like to learn Italian. I wanna go to San Tropez with my husband and lie topless on the beach. (Izzie smiles) Alex: They do excellent implants in reconstruction these days. (Izzie loses the smile instantly) You won't even know the difference. Plus you'll never have to wear a bra again. That's something right? (Savvy laughs) Izzie (annoyed): Alex, didn't I see your service on the OR board for a biopsy right about now? Alex: Yeah. (He leaves) Izzie: It's not the kid thing. Savvy: Ok. What? (Izzie is silent) It's not like I have a lot of options. One, take my chances and never get cancer. Two, take my chances and die young. Izzie: There's a third option you know? Savvy: Ok I'm listening. Izzie: Take your chances, get cancer and fight like hell to survive. (She leaves the room) (Staff Locker room. Cristina is trying on various dresses. She is wearing a red dress over her scrubs. She holds up a light purple dress and pale white flowery one to Izzie to look at) Izzie: Ah they're both really nice. Cristina: I know. I bought them. But which one is right? (She holds the white one over head and stands in front of a full length mirror to see how it looks. The mirror is between two doors leading to respective female & male bathrooms) Izzie: For what? You're gonna look hot in either one. Cristina: Well clearly. That's not the point. (Meredith & George enter. George whistles) Meredith: Wow you look hot. Cristina: Yeah. Burke and I are gonna talk about how hot I am over dinner. This date is such a mistake. (Cristina starts taking off the red dress) George: But it's easy to get nervous on dates. It's especially hard if you're out of practice so you just got be mellow ... Cristina (interrupts): Yeah I know how to date George. I'm not you. (Alex has entered the room as well. George goes into the men's bathroom) Alex: I have a scheduled for the mastectomy. And I get to stay while plastics does a TRAM flap reconstruction. Izzie: I couldn't do it. Alex: Do what? Make yourself all hot and sexy for your boyfriend like Yang? (Cristina is now putting on the purple dress) Cristina: Go wrestle something. Izzie: I couldn't cut off my ovaries and breasts just because I might have cancer. (Cristina yanks up the dress fully and walks up to Meredith to zip her up) Cristina: Think of it like a hand. If someone told you you'd die if you didn't chop off your hand you'd do it. Izzie: Except when you chop off a hand you don't kll your sex drive, have silicone breasts, get hot flushes and lose your ability to bear children. (Cristina pulls of her scrub pants) Meredith: If it were me I wouldn't even have the test. I mean what's the point? We're all gonna die anyway right? (They all stare at her) It's the 'Hello Kitty' band-aid on my forehead. It's freaking me out. Alex: I say slice 'em and dice 'em. Whatever. They're body parts. (Cristina moves back to the mirror and starts putting on some black heels) Izzie: So you'd cut of your penis? Alex: If it kept me from dying. Besides, I've got plenty of spare. (Izzie makes a face and Alex leaves) Cristina (looks all ready to go): I can do hot in my sleep. I look hot in scrubs. I'm a hot person. He's seen my naked a thousand times. (George walks out of the bathroom at this very sentence and closes his eyes painfully) George (to himself): Bad, bad images in my head. Meredith: But he's never seen you outside the hospital. Cristina (sarcastic): Thank you. (SGH Parking lot at night) (Burke & Cristina are walking to his car all dressed up ready for their date) Burke: You look lovely. Cristina: Thanks. (She quickens her pace a little and goes to open the door for herself but Burke reaches for the door simultaneously) Cristina: Oh. Very polite. Thank you. (He opens the door for her and she gets in. Burke closes the door and walks to the other side of the door trying to shake of his nerves) (Esme is in an operating room. Bailey & Meredith are operating on her) Bailey: Ok, Grey. Adhesions are down. What next? Meredith: Put in graspers to lift the gall bladder so we can dissect it out. Bailey: Good and what are we looking for in Calot's triangle? Meredith: The cystic artery. Bailey: That's right. (looking at the screen of the surgery) Wait a minute. What do you see? Meredith (sighs): Porcelin bladder. Bailey: That's not good. (Dr. Bailey & Meredith are talking with Jed after the surgery in a waiting room) Bailey: Mr. Sorrento when we removed your wife's gallbladder we found that there were calcifications. Jed: What does that mean? Bailey: It's often a sign of gallbladder cancer. We sent it off to Pathology. Jed: She has cancer? Bailey: I'm afraid so. We can keep her comfortable but she's going to need more tests to see what our next steps are. This might include more surgery. Jed: But this surgery will save her right? Bailey: The cancer appears to be advanced. There a palliative surgeries that we can do, that is surgeries to help with the pain but it won't cure it. Jed (devastated looks through the window into the ward his wife is in): How longs she got? Bailey: From what we can tell so far ... she has about 4 to 6 months. I'm so sorry. (Dr. Bailey walks away. Meredith sad moves to walk away as well but Mr. Sorrento stops her) Jed: I don't want Esme to know. Meredith: What? Jed: Esme, I don't want her to know she's dying. Meredith: You don't want to tell her? Jed: Please. You saw her. She's happy. Let me take her home. I don't want her to be afraid before she dies. She doesn't need to. (Pre-op ward where Stu is lying in a hospital bed waiting for his surgery. George is at his bedside. George moves to speak) Stu: No, please don't. No more carpe diem, man. I don't wanna seize the day. George: See that's what I don't get. I'm standing here and I'm just so incredibly happy to be alive. You know I'm looking at the sky, its bluer. Food tastes better. And I didn't survive a 5 story fall. (Stu looks away at this upset. George stops writing in his chart, the smile sliding of his face. Realization dawns him) George (says as a statement): You jumped didn't you. (Stu doesn't reply) (SGH HOSPITAL AT NIGHT) (SGH PRE-OP WARD) Stu: The whole way down all I could think about was Daisy. She's my ex-girl. She works in this hospital. (He huffs) What kinda joke is that? George: Maybe, maybe you got a second chance. Stu (suddenly more upbeat): Daisy. You gotta go and find her for me. Talk to her. Tell her she's the reason that I'm alive. (George just stares back) (Weiss is sitting on an empty hospital gurney against the wall of a hallway. Derek is leaning against the wall talking to him) Weiss (upset): You know we had a future. We had plans. We picked out baby names together. She betrayed that ... without even asking my opinion. Without even giving me time to process. Derek: It's a difficult time. For both of you. She's emotional. Weiss: And hormone changes. Mood swings. They say she could lose her sex drive. Derek: You'll get through this, all right? (He sits down next to Weiss) you'll get through this. You guys love each other. Weiss: Is that what you said about you and Addie? Derek: What? Weiss: You left her. Derek: That was different. Weiss: Was it Derek? Really? Derek: You know, I gotta go check on a patient and get ready for dinner. See you later. (He gets up and walks off) Weiss: Sure. (RESTAURANT WITH A LOBSTER ON THE FRONT AT NIGHT) (RESTAURANT) (Cristina & Burke are sitting at a table for 2 looking over the menus. Cristina starts looking at the table for something) Cristina: Uh, where's the butter? (Burke picks up a bottle of olive oil and holds it out to her) Oh, no, that's olive oil. I want butter. (He nods slightly and puts the olive oil down. A waiter comes up to their table) Waiter: Should I send the sommelier over? Burke: Oh no that won't be necessary. What is a nice oaky chardonnay? Cristina: Oh I want Bordeaux Burke: Chardonnay will be better with the lobster. Cristina: I'm having steak. Burke (a little shocked): You...You eat red meat. Cristina (equally shocked): You don't? (They both look over their respective menus while the waiter waits for their order) (SGH) (George is looking over a map of the hospital with Meredith in an elevator by themselves) Meredith: You're seriously gonna try to find this girl? Hunt her down while she's working. George: Look. ... Ok I know it's crazy but someone's gotta tell her how he feels. I mean he's alive, right? Something good has got to come out of this. (Meredith nods slight) I mean this could change everything. See I dunno I thought you were a romantic. (The elevator door dings) Meredith: Was. Past tense. (The doors open and Derek enters) Derek: Well this is fun, again. I like the 'Hello Kitty' by the way. Very pink. Very cheerful. George (uncomfortable): Daisy works is billing which is where? Derek and Meredith: In the basement. (George nods to himself and makes a funny noise. Meredith & Derek both turn to look at him) (Dr. Bailey is in front of the OR board looking tearful? Richard comes to the edge of a corner near the board and Bailey notices) Bailey: You need something Chief? I have one more surgery and then I'm free. Richard: No, no, no. Bailey: Ok. (She starts walking off. Richard starts walking with her) Richard: Have you made a decision yet? Bailey: Sir? Richard: The fellowship. The Seattle Grace fellowship. I thought you would've accepted by now. Bailey: Busy. I've just haven't had a chance to fill out ... Richard (interrupts): We're a private hospital. We have extensive resources. You'll get more surgical experience here than anywhere else. You could write your own ticket. Why aren't you more excited? Bailey: No I'm excited. I just ... I'm, excuse me sir, I just I need to scrub in. (RESTAURANT) (Restaurant where Burke & Cristina are eating their dinner silently) Cristina: What? Burke: Oh, nothing. Cristina: You know, we should probably skip dessert I have, I have an early morning. Burke: Oh, right. Not a problem. (A guy in a far by table collapses. It is Speed earlier from before in the elevator) Talia: Oh, my god, help is there a doctor in here? (Both Cristina & Burke look over. They both jump up) Cristina & Burke: Yes! (Cristina & Burke are checking over the guy collapsed on the floor) Cristina: Call 911. Talia: He couldn't be having heartburn. I thought he was choking. Burke: Pulse? Cristina: Yes it's rapid and unequal. Burke: Look at this. The length of his fingers. Cristina: He's gotta be at least 6 foot 4. Burke & Cristina: Marfan's. Talia: What do his fingers have to do with anything? Cristina: Your husband is showing classic markers for Marfan's syndrome. Burke: It means the walls of his blood vessels are weak. Cristina: Uh we need an ambulance. Burke: Fast. He could be dissected here and then get him to the O.R. Cristina: Before his aorta ruptures? Talia: What are you talking about? Who are you people? (Paramedics are with the guy on a stretcher in the restaurant. Dr. Burke is with them. Cristina is on the phone to the hospital) Cristina: We have a dissected thoracic aorta. We need a CT cleared and an O.R ready. (They start wheeling the guy out of the restaurant) Burke (to the paramedics): Start another large boar IV. Continue high flow O2. Transport him sirens and lights to Seattle Grace. Paramedic: Who the hell are you? Cristina: Hey! He's the cardiothoracic surgeon who's gonna operate on him. Burke (looking pleased): And she's with me. (SGH) (Savvy is putting make-up on, getting ready for a night out. Izzie walks into her room) Izzie: Oh, I didn't ... have you been discharged? Savvy: Wh? No. I'm going out to dinner with my surgeon and our husbands. Sort of a last supper I guess. I know, I know. Nothing after midnight. (Izzie nods and moves to leave) You're disappointed aren't you? (Izzie stops and turns back) How do I look? Izzie: You're a beautiful woman. Savvy: And so are you. (Izzie half shrugs it off looking down) Is that why this is so hard to understand? Ugh menopause I know. Boobs. But they have hormone replacement, reconstructions. (She gets reflective) But the sexy Savvy. The Savvy that gets noticed when she walks into the room. Hmmm. The Savvy that loves to wake her husband up in the middle of the night to make love. Yeah I wonder if that Savvy is still gonna be there. Honestly I haven't a clue. (Izzie is silent) But then I think is, is that why Weiss married me? God, I hope not. (George is running down some stairs to the basement of the hospital. He sees a sign pointing to Billings and he runs down the hall. He stops in front of an open door. A woman is sitting at a desk) George: Could this place be any further away? It's like Siberia down here. Daisy: That's because we don't like sick people. George: Oh. You know you're, you're in a hospital. Uh, are you Daisy? Daisy: I don't deal with billing questions after 7pm. I'm just data entry at night. George: No uh actually Stu sent me. Daisy: Is this some kinda joke? George: No. He's in this hospital. He's had an accident. I'm his doctor. He's fine. Uh we're taking him into surgery. Um but he wanted me to find you. (George smiles) Daisy: You just tell that bastard he could've come looking for me like 10 years ago. (George looks a little stunned by her response & walks out) (Izzie & Alex are sitting in a gallery watching Stu's surgery about to begin. Izzie looks angry) Alex: What are you pissed about? Izzie: You'll look at everything in a skirt. Alex (teasing): I'd look at you in a skirt. Short. Maybe something school girl. Pleated. Izzie: If that skirt didn't have a pair of big bouncy boobs you'd stop looking. Alex: When you cut them off you build them back up. Maybe you get to upgrade. Life goes on. Izzie (whispers angrily): If there was a genetic test for testicular cancer, you think men who tested positive would have the surgery? No. You know why? It's castration. What man would willingly get rid of the part of his anatomy that makes him a man? This woman is having herself castrated and we book an OR and act like it means nothing! It's not nothing. God. How could possibly act like it's no big deal? I mean what if it was me? Alex: Izzie, you're making... You're freaking out. You know that right? Izzie: If I was the woman with the cancer gene. If I should up tomorrow and my boobs were made of plastic and my skin had aged 10 years and my sex drive had dried up. If it was me Alex would you be so fine with it then? (Alex is silent) Yeah you'd really be hot to kiss me with tongue then, wouldn't you? (Izzie gets up and leaves very upset) (OR where Stu is lying down. George is in there as well) Anesthesiologist: Dr. Bailey's scrubbing in so we're gonna get started. Stu: Okay. Hey George. Listen, did you find her? George: I'm very sorry Stu. They said she's on vacation. Stu: Oh, yeah? Maybe her parents. I bet you she went up to New Hampshire. That's where she's from. Anesthesiologist: I'm gonna push the joy juice. Stu: Oh up, up and away. (The anesthesiologist chuckles) George: Maybe you can see her after your surgery. You know when you recover. Maybe then. Stu: It's all good man. Thanks for trying. (He starts trailing off) It really meant a ... lot ... to ... me. (Stu's heart monitor starts beeping rapidly) Anesthesiologist: Hold on guys. We have a problem. George: He's crashing? Dr. Bailey? Bailey: O'Malley start CPR. (To another doctor) Push Epi. (George and Dr. Bailey are walking out of the OR) Bailey: You'll need to notify the family. George: What happened? Bailey: There'll be an autopsy. Sometimes people get on the table and they just die. There's no way of knowing beforehand and no way of controlling it. George: But he fell 5 stories and lived. It doesn't make any sense. He survived so I could go and find Daisy. And then she didn't even want to see him so what's the point? Bailey: We're all part of the cosmic joke O'Malley. Now leave me alone. (She wanders to the OR board where Meredith rushes up to her) Meredith: Oh, Dr. Bailey. Bailey (loud): What? Meredith: Mr. Sorrento doesn't want me to tell his wife that she's dying. Bailey (yells): You haven't told her yet? Meredith: No. Bailey: Ok, I didn't hear you say that. You're her doctor. It's your responsibility to give your patients the information necessary to make an informed decision. Now, I'm hungry. I'm tired. You're in my way! (She brushes past Meredith) (Cristina & Burke are washing up in the scrub room getting ready to perform surgery on Speed) Burke: Can you see that Echo from here? Cristina: The dissection isn't subtle. Burke: Did you see that wingspan? And the pectus carinatum? Cristina: What about his palate? Burke: The definition of high arched. (They walk into the OR) (Dr. Bailey is in staff room eating a piece of chocolate cake and coffee. Richard comes in) Richard: You're being wooed, aren't you? Bailey: Excuse me? Richard: The fellowship. LA Med, Chicago Central. They're wooing you. I mean you're fielding offers, you're looking at bonus packages, you're letting yourself be wooed. Bailey (looking a little shocked): No, Chief I ... Richard (interrupts): No it's fine! It's fine. Go be a hotshot somewhere else. (He goes to a table and makes himself a cup of coffee and comes back a little upset) Richard: But tell me ... how could you do this to me? I mean, I'm hurt. Really hurt. After all I've done for you. You're gifted and you're ungrateful. And that's all I'm saying. Bailey (annoyed): I'm pregnant, you blind moron. Richard (shocked and looking sheepish): You're what? Bailey: My heart rate is 110. I'm burning 3000 calories a day. My legs are swollen. I've got indigestion and gas. Did you know that carrying a boy in your uterus means you burn 10% more calories than if you had a girl? Guess what I'm carrying! I try for 7 damn years and a month before my fellowship notifications the stick turns blue. Men! From the very beginning they just suck the life right out of you. I'm not leaving. I'm pregnant. Richard: Um ... congratulations. (Burke & Cristina are in the O.R about to perform surgery on Jed) Burke: Dr. Yang. ... You're handling the saw. (Cristina looks amazed. Other scrub nurses look at her also amazed) Cristina: Thank you, Dr. Burke. (She whispers to him) You won't let me pick the wine but this you'll let me do? Burke (he chuckles): Are we all set for by-pass? Nurse: Almost there. (Cristina begins using the saw while Dr. Burke watches her carefully) (Meredith is entering an empty elevator. Well except for Derek who's dressed for dinner standing in a corner typing something into his mobile. The doors ding shut) Derek: So, apparently we both live on this elevator. (Meredith doesn't reply. He shuts his phone and walks to face her. She avoids looking at him) Derek: Meredith. You know, you could at least acknowledge I exist. (The door dings open and Addison is waiting to get on. Derek turns around so his back is facing Meredith and Addison enters the elevator) Addison: Hello, Dr. Grey. Meredith: Hello. Addison (to Derek): You ready to go? Derek: I was on my way. (There is an awkward silence) (Talia is waiting in a patient waiting room. Dr. Burke & Cristina come down some stairs after the surgery to talk to Talia) Burke: Well, it took 3 hours but the surgery went perfectly. (Cristina nods smiling) All we have to do is wait now and see how he's doing when he wakes up. Talia: Why did this happen? Burke: Almost every patient with Marfan's has an aorta that fails. It's just a matter of when. Talia: I guess it was lucky you two were having dinner at the next table. (Cristina & Burke exchange looks) Burke: It was. Take care. (They walk away) (Meredith is talking to Mrs. Sorrento by herself in her patient room about her cancer) Meredith: ... and we can treat it with surgery and chemo but ... Esme: We're supposed to go to Venice at the end of the month. Do you know the story? Meredith: No. Esme: They say if you ride a gondola under the Bridge of Sighs, you're together for eternity. You didn't tell Jed, did you? Meredith: Excuse me? Esme: He's always been so worried that I'd go first. Meredith: You don't want him to know? Esme: You're young. I don't expect you to understand an old broad like me. Meredith: You can't have a relationship built on a lie. Can you? Esme: Oh, honey, it's not a lie. It's our future. I've been with the love of my life for 60 years. And now I'm dying. We're going to Venice. We're getting in that gondola. (Meredith smiles) (Seattle Scenes) (JOE'S BAR) (Addison, Derek, Savvy & Weiss are sitting in a booth together having a few drinks) Savvy: When Addie told me she was coming out here. I had such a good feeling. You guys are gonna make it. You were always meant to be. Weiss: Yeah a couple of clams on a half shell. A couple of peas in a pod. (Addison chuckles) Addison: Hmm. Derek: Still working on the pod part. Addison: It's about choices. (Savvy holds up her coke for a toast) Savvy: We'll here's to taking life in your own hands. Addison: Cheers. Savvy: Cheers. Derek: Cheers. Weiss (upset): Yeah. And here's to bull and here's to crap. And here's to oophorectomy, hysterectomy, double bilateral mastectomy. Savvy: Please stop. Weiss: How smart am I to know all those words? Savvy: Stop. Weiss: Here's to breast reconstruction, nipple reconstruction. Here's to losing your wife. Here's to being the ass who can't be supportive. Here's to that. (He gets up and leaves) (SGH HOSPITAL GROUND FLOOR WAITING ROOM) (Weiss is sitting in one the chairs. Derek walks in) Derek: Weiss? Weiss: Don't talk to me. Keep walking. Derek: You should get some sleep. Sober up. So you're ready for Savvy's surgery. Come on I'll drive you. Weiss: I'm supposed to hold her hand while they rip her apart? That's the definition of love? (Derek sighs and sits down facing him) Derek: You can do this. Weiss: Maybe I can't. Maybe I'm just a guy who likes to screw his wife. Derek (shakes his head): Weiss. Weiss: And that's what she'll think if I'm not there. Derek: You're gonna be there. Weiss (chuckles): This is coming from a guy who packed his bags in the middle of the night and drove 3,000 miles to live in a trailer. Derek: Yeah well what am I doing with Addison now? Hmmm? I'm trying to work it out. I don't know am I out of my, my mind? I don't know. You tell me? ... It's about the ring. It's about the vows. Savvy didn't screw around with you with your best friend. She's looking for support. If you don't give that to her now, if you don't give her that support, then what the hell am I doing? (Weiss just shakes his head) (Meredith is walking out of Mrs. Sorrento's room. Mr. Sorrento is standing in front of the door about to enter with a cup of coffee) Jed: You didn't tell her, did you? Meredith: No. I didn't tell her. (He nods his thanks and walks in to the room with the coffee for his wife. She smiles and takes it. Meredith watches) (Seattle Scenes) (Meredith is sitting on a low concrete wall in what could possibly be the backyard to the townhouse. George is pacing up and down along the wall) George: I thought he cheated fate. Meredith: Maybe he did cheat fate. George: He died. Meredith: I think you can't wait for someone to fly underneath you and save your life. I think you have to save yourself. George: You mean the pigeons aren't going to come? Meredith: The pigeons aren't going to come. (Addison is sitting on Savvy's bed with a Polaroid camera taking photo's of Savvy who's sitting opposite her on the bed doing provocative poses with nothing but a red gown) Addison: Hold still. (She takes the photo and they both laugh) Savvy: Make sure you get both sides. Addison: Okay. Savvy (smiling): You know these are gonna be next year's holiday cards. (Addison laughs and takes another picture) I want them to be immortalized before they're gone. And this way Weiss gets to look at them whenever he wants. (Addison takes another picture) Addison: These are gonna be great. Savvy: We're scheduled to go in at 8? Addison: Yeah. I'm gonna take you down to the pre-op in just a few minutes. Savvy: Weiss will show up, Addie he always does. Addison (slightly teary): Sav. ... As your doctor you know I'm a 100% on your side but ... as your friend are you absolutely sure about this? Savvy (sighs): I know what I'm losing. I get it. But think about what I'm gaining. My life. This gives me a sht. A sht at the future. At sh*t at me and Weiss ... becoming this crazy old wrinkled couple that argues all the time. I mean, wouldn't you want that? A chance to grow old with Derek? Addison (teary): Yeah. ... Yeah I do. Savvy: Oh god. (She starts crying) Addison: Oh Sav. (Addison comforts her) MVO: Maybe Romeo & Juliet were fated to be together, but just for a while. And then their time passed. (Izzie is sitting on a bench tying up her shoe laces in the deserted staff locker room. Alex walks into the room) MVO: If they could've known that beforehand maybe it would've all been ok. (Alex sits behind Izzie) Alex: Here's the thing. I like your rack. Izzie (interrupts standing up angry): What is wrong with you? Why do you have to be so ... What is wrong with you? (Alex pulls her down back onto the bench) Alex: I like your rack. And I'd want them around if I could have them, trust me I would. But it wouldn't be the end of the world if you got rid of them. Because really ... I'd want you. (Izzie slaps him across the face hard) Alex: Ow. Huh. What was that for? MVO: I told Mrs. Snyder that when I was growing up I'd take fate into my own hands. (Izzie grabs Alex's face and kisses him) MVO: I wouldn't let some guy drag me down. (Izzie gets up and smiles walking off) (Mrs. Sorrento is being wheeled to the elevator. Mr. Sorrento is beside her. Mrs. Sorrento gets up and they walk together arm in arm into the elevator. Camera pans to Meredith who is watching them from the next floor above) MVO: Mrs. Snyder said that I'd be lucky if I ever had that kind of passion with someone. And that if I did, we'd be together forever. (Cristina & Burke are walking down a hall towards the same set of elevators. One of them dings open) Burke: I guess we never really got our date. Cristina: Are you kidding? That was the best date I've ever been on. (She gets onto the elevator smiling and the doors closes. Dr. Burke walks off grinning) MVO: Even now I believe for the most part love is about choices. (Savvy is lying on an operating table in the O.R. Addison is there as well prepping for the surgery. Derek walks in scrubbed up and walks up to Savvy. Savvy tries not to cry) Savvy: He's not coming is he? (Derek smiles with his eyes and moves to the side so you can see the door. Weiss walks in scrubbed up in dark blue scrubs up to Savvy) Weiss: You're shaking. Savvy (trying not to cry, happy): You're here. (Izzie is there as well prepped up. Addison takes a glance at Derek who looks back) MVO: It's about putting down the poison and the dagger and making your own happy ending ... most of the time. Addison (to Izzie): I'm going to go ahead and get started now. (To Savvy) You ready? Savvy (smiling at Weiss): Yeah. Ready. (Weiss is holding Savvy's hand tightly) (Elevator dings open and Meredith is standing outside waiting to get on. She looks up and sees Derek by himself looking down leaning against the back wall of the elevator) MVO: And that sometimes despite all your best choices and all your best intentions, fate wins anyway. (He looks up and sees Meredith but is silent. Meredith walks in and turns around so she isn't facing him. The doors shut. There is a quiet silence) Meredith (softly): I miss you. (Derek perks up slightly at this. He stands up slowly and walks up to right behind Meredith and smells her hair. He pulls back but then slightly rests his head against hers briefly. Meredith closes her eyes at the contact. He moves close and whispers in her ear) Derek: I can't. (He walks out of the elevator. And the doors close on Meredith)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x08 - Let it Be"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x09: Thanks for the Memories Original Airdate: 11/20/2005 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Michael Dinner (Meredith's house, where Izzie is dumping a frozen turkey into the kitchen sink. She's getting recipe's and books out in preparation for cooking Thanksgiving dinner) MVO: Gratitude, appreciation, giving thanks. No matter what words you use, it all means the same thing. Happy. (Meredith is dressed to go out sneaking down the stairs. She sneaks past the kitchen peeking quickly to see if Izzie is there) MVO: We're supposed to be happy. Grateful for friends, family, happy just to be alive... Izzie: Hey. (Meredith stops sneaking instantly and spins around. Izzie is standing right behind her with a recipe book) MVO: Whether we like it or not. Izzie: What do you think you're doing? (The doorbell rings) Meredith: Uh ... answering the door. (Izzie looks at what Meredith's carrying) Izzie: You're going to the hospital? Meredith: Yes but after ... Izzie (interrupts): Meredith everyone is supposed to be in the kitchen by 9am to help me make dinner. It's Thanksgiving. Meredith: I'm really not in the mood. Izzie: But it's like a family ... (Izzie is interrupted by the doorbell again) Meredith: Doorbell. (Meredith makes her way over to the door. She opens the door with a strange look on her face. An older man, who turns out to be George's Dad and his two brothers Ronny & Jerry are standing at the door) Mr. O'Malley: Is this where Georgie lives? Meredith: Georgie? Mr. O'Malley: O'Malley. Where is he, upstairs? Meredith: Oh George. Yeah. (They enter the house) Mr. O'Malley, Ronny, Jerry (yell): O'Malley! (They run up the stairs chanting O-Mall-ey O-Mall-ey) Izzie (to Meredith): Should I call the police? (She turns her gaze back up to the stairs. Meredith takes the opportunity to sneak out and closes the door. Izzie hears the sound and calls out) Izzie: Meredith I'm serious! You need to back here for dinner at 6! I mean it! (George is lying in his bed. He has his eyes closed and arms stretched out in the air. He's counting down softly. You can hear the O'Malley chants getting louder. His family opens up the door and yell) Mr. O'Malley, Ronny, Jerry: Happy Thanksgiving! (Ferryboat is sailing across Seattle harbor. Derek is on board with a cup of coffee. Addison is on there with him) Addison: Hey, you. I saw you from the window and...looked like you could use a wake up call. Derek: I thought you moved to a hotel closer to the hospital. You still at the Inn at Bainbridge? (She hands him the coffee) Thank You. Addison: Mm-hmm. Yeah, I had a thing for ferryboats. Derek: Always, you know, what the mocking. Addison: So um ... I was thinking that we could ... have sex tonight. (Derek half chuckles I think slightly disconcerted by the idea) Addison: Look I know we're both gonna feel weird about it. It's the first time ... Derek: Since Mark. Addison: And Meredith. ... I have the day off. Do you have the day off? Derek: Just stop by the hospital. I have patients I need to check on. You have the day off what are you doing here? Addison (shrugs): Was thinking we could have sex tonight. (Derek turns slightly at this) Come on I made a reservation at noon. I figured we could do the Thanksgiving thing you know and then ... I dunno, just rip the stitches. Get it over with. Derek: No anesthesia? Addison: Right. ... What do you think? Derek: Remember med school? We spent Thanksgiving studying for exams and eating really bad Chinese food instead of turkey. Addison: Yeah, too busy and too tired to even think about cooking. Derek: We never had to schedule sex. Not once. Addison: Derek, I wanna get through this. I do. I want things to be normal again, like it used to be. So will you meet me at noon? Derek: Yeah, ok. I'll see you at noon. (Meredith is by herself getting ready in the staff locker room tying up her shoe laces. Bailey comes in) Bailey: Grey. We're working with a temp attending today. Dr. Kent. He's subbing in from Mercy West. We need to get him orientated. (She turns to walk out but turns back quickly) And thanking you for volunteering to come in. Saving me from having to choose an intern to trture. (She starts walking out and Meredith gets up and starts walking with her) Meredith: Happy to be tortured. Bailey: Not a fan of Thanksgiving? Meredith: Not a whole hell of a lot to be thankful for. (Bailey nods slightly. They start walking down a hallway together) Bailey: I like Thanksgiving. Day people spend with their families. Too much family time triggers depression, repressed childhood rage, bitter disputes over the remote and way too much alcohol. (They come to a stop in front of an elevator) People get stupid. People get violent. People get hurt. Meredith: And that's a good thing because? (The doors open and people walk off. They get on the elevator) Bailey: Surgeries Grey! Lots and lots of surgeries. Meredith: I never thought of that. Bailey: The stupidity of the human race, Grey. Be thankful for that. (Derek is walking down a hallway in the hospital still in his casual gear. He comes to the OR board where Richard is standing looking over it also dressed in casual wear) Derek: You're supposed to be at home. Richard: So are you. (Dr. Burke comes into the hall dressed in his blue scrubs) Burke: Ah best maze procedure I've ever done. Under an hour. Derek: I thought you had the day off. Burke: I did. I do. I'm leaving. I simply like to start my day cutting. Gives me a rush. (He starts walking off) Derek: Yeah admit it you can't function 10 feet away from the hospital. (Burke stops walking) Burke: Uh I notice you're both here. Derek: Well I'm here for an hour. Richard: I'm on my way home. Burke: Ah, say it like you mean it. (He chuckles and starts walking off again) Richard (to Derek, adamant): I know how to have a life outside this hospital. (Richard walks off and Derek heads the other way) Derek (chuckles): Yeah damn right you do. (Dr. Kent is standing in the middle of the hallway looking over some patient files. Bailey & Meredith walk up to him) Bailey: Dr. Kent? (He starts walking off. Bailey & Meredith follow him) Dr. Kent: Yes? Bailey: Uh I'm the surgical resident assisting you today. I know you're subbing in from Mercy West so if there's anything I can do to help ... Dr. Kent (stops walking & interrupts): Look, I'm here for one day. I don't need my ass kissed. All I need is to tell you what to do and you do it. And I don't like mistakes. (Meredith glances at Bailey for her reaction to this) Bailey (off put): I don't make mistakes. Dr. Kent: Whatever. There's only one resident I want in my OR. Guy they call the nzi. Do you know him? (Bailey & Meredith glance at each other) Bailey: The, the nzi? Dr. Kent: He gets great word of mouth. Stellar rep. Balls the size of Texas? Bailey (raises her eyebrows): That big? (Meredith looks at Bailey trying not to smile) Sounds like an impressively talented man this nzi. Dr. Kent: Do you know him or not? Bailey: Never heard of him. (Meredith smiles at this) But I'll be sure to keep an eye out. Dr. Kent: For now you can work on smaller cases. A guy just came into curtain 3. Page me if you get confused. (He walks off) Bailey (calls out): I'll be sure to do that. (To Meredith): Like I said, the stupidity of the human race. (Meredith's house) (George is rushing down the stairs with his family) Mr. O'Malley: Hurry up Georgie! There's a turkey out there with your name on it. (He walks past the kitchen where Izzie is getting out utensils to start cooking. She sees George being whisked away) Izzie: Whoa, hey! (She runs into the main foyer entrance) Hey! Where are you going? (She grabs George by his jacket to stop him from leaving) Hey, where are you going? (His family waits at the door) George: Every year, my father, my brothers and I hunt, sh*t and kll a helpless slow moving turkey. (Sarcastic) Isn't that great? Mr. O'Malley, Ronny, Jerry: O'Malley! (Ronny & Mr. O'Malley head out the door. Jerry comes forward, grabbing George to go with them) Izzie: Ok but what about dinner? Jerry: Oh we'll have him back as soon as he kills his first bird. Right this year Georgie becomes a man, right Georgie? George: It's George! Come on. (He moves to close the front door behind him) Izzie: Okay, wait, wait! I can't make dinner by myself. Who's going to help me? George (hisses): Who's going to help me? (Jerry has run back and grabs George to go with them. The door slams shut) (SGH) (Bailey & Meredith are pulling back Curtain 3 where a guy lies comatose on a bed. Nurse Olivia is already there with his chart) Olivia: Holden McKee brought in from Mayfield Nursing Home. Bailey: Mayfield? He's in the garden? (Olivia hands Bailey his chart) Meredith: Garden? Bailey: Vegetable. Olivia: Yeah his chart says he fell into a persistent vegetative state 16 years ago. (Dr. Bailey gets a confused look on his face as if to say why is he here then?) Meredith (now reading the chart): He was a firefighter. Injured by falling debris in the line of duty. Bailey: What brings him here today? Olivia: Fell from his bed while being turned by the orderlies. Insurance says he has to be checked out. (Bailey points to Meredith to check him out) Meredith: Temporal parietal scalp lace with associated hematoma. Bailey: What's your plan? Meredith: Irrigate and explore the wound. Repair the lac. He'll need a CT to rule out intra-cerebral hemorrhage, contusion or cerebral edema. (Bailey nods) Bailey: Go to it. Anybody asks I'm off looking for the nzi. (She & Olivia leave) Meredith (to Holden): Ok, it's just me and you. (She starts to explore his head wound) I'd give anything for your kind of serenity. (To herself) Great. Now I'm jealous of vegetables. You just look so peaceful. (All of a sudden Holden opens his eyes and looks directly at Meredith. Meredith jumps back in alarm, letting out a small yell) (Meredith enters a trauma room where Dr. Bailey and several other ER doctors and nurses are tending to a patient) Meredith: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: This guy's got 3rd degree burns over here over half his body. Tried to deep fry a turkey. Of course he got drunk first. It's gonna be good, you want in? Meredith: My PVS case. He opened his eyes. And I think he was looking at me. (All the people in their chuckle except for Bailey) Bailey: He wasn't looking at you. Meredith: No, he was. (Dr. Kent comes to the door) Dr. Kent: Anything good? (Bailey gestures quietly to the E.R docs to hide the patient from Dr. Kent's view) Bailey: Uh nothing you want to waste time on. There are ah 13 patients that need sutures. Dr. Kent (points to Meredith): She's the intern. She can do the sutures. (Meredith gives him a look but he doesn't see) Bailey: Uh actually she's on her way to CT with a VIP patient on orders from the nzi. Dr. Kent: Tell him I'm looking for him. (She nods slightly and he leaves) Bailey (to the ER docs): Ok, the burn unit is waiting for him. I'll meet in the O.R. (to Meredith) Grey, get a CT. Have neuro consult. But trust me he wasn't looking at you. (Meredith's Townhouse where Burke & Cristina who are both dressed very nicely talking. Cristina rings the doorbell) Cristina: Don't mention Shepherd. Or Montgomery-Shepherd. Burke: Ok. Cristina: Or the fact that Shepherd is with Montgomery-Shepherd. Burke: Ok. Cristina: Or anything having to do with syphilis. Burke (chuckles and rings the doorbell again): I've been in social situations before. Cristina: Yeah well not with me. Burke: Well, why are we here? Cristina: Just be nice or something. (Izzie opens the door wearing an apron. She doesn't see Dr. Burke who is not standing in front of the door directly) Izzie (agitated): It's half past 10! You're late! I've had to try to do all ... (She stops instantly when she sees Burke peering past the corner of the door and puts on an awkward fake smile) Izzie: Oh hi Dr. Burke. Hello. (He gives her a half-wave) Oh. (She moves to the side so Cristina & Burke can enter through the door. As Cristina is walking by Izzie, Izzie grabs her arm and pulls to talk closely with her. Burke walks in past them and looks around the foyer of the house) Cristina (whispers to Izzie): What was I supposed to do? Blow off my boyfriend for Thanksgiving? (Izzie gives her a look) I tried to. He wouldn't blow. He's like something sticky that won't blow off. Izzie (whispers back): Ok, he's gonna ruin Thanksgiving. Now what am I supposed to talk to Dr. Burke about? Burke (speaks up loudly and walks up to them): People who are shocked when I show up uninvited to their homes call me Preston. (Izzie lets out a forced half chuckle) Cristina: Nobody calls you Preston. Burke: You don't call me Preston. (To Izzie) Nice house. Izzie: Yeah. (Burke goes back to exploring. Izzie gets a cordless phone from her apron pocket and dials a number. You can hear the ringing) Cristina: Izzie why is it so quiet in here? Izzie: Uh Meredith went to the hospital and George is off sh*ting things with his family. Cristina (mortified): So it's just me, you and (she whispers) Preston? Izzie: And Alex when he shows up. Cristina: Oh great. Izzie (speaks into the phone): Hey Alex it's me, where are you? Ok. Call me back. (She hangs up the phone) Burke: Is something burning? Izzie: Oh god yes! (She runs off to the kitchen) (At the hospital, Derek is dressed in casual gear ready to go home. He walks up to Richard who is standing at a nurse's station) Derek: Hey Chief. Richard: I'm on my way home. Derek: Yeah me too. Was supposed to meet Addison twenty minutes ago. (Meredith walks up behind Derek just as he says this with Holden's file. Derek putting on his jacket turns and sees Meredith. He's a little put off) Meredith: Dr. Shepherd, you're leaving? Richard: Uh I'm also going home. Derek: Then go home. Richard: Adele's sister is in town. I hate that woman. Derek: The OR board needs to be checked one more time. Richard: It does, doesn't it? Excuse me. (He walks off) Derek: I didn't think you'd be here today. Meredith: Yeah well. ... I need a neuro consult. (She hands him the file) Holden McKee. PVS, 16 years. Derek (looks through the file): Well there's no bleed, there's no mass, no fracture. He can be discharged. Meredith: Well he opened his eyes when I was examining him. He opened his eyes. (Meredith hands Derek a pen to sign the file) Derek: Yeah that's normal. Certain reflexes are preserved. There's arousal but no awareness. Meredith (nods): But he was looking at me. Derek: He wasn't looking at you. Meredith: He was. Derek: The CT report says he wasn't. (He hands her back the file) Meredith: Do you wanna argue with what I know I saw? Derek (grabbing his case): No, Meredith. I don't wanna argue with you anymore. I gotta go, I'm late. (He starts walking off. Meredith is a little stunned by his behavior. He stops himself and walks back) Derek: He was looking at you? (They walk towards Holden's room) Derek: So, how are you? Meredith: I'm fine. How are you? Derek: Fine. Meredith: Good. Me and you are in this weird limbo. This is gonna go on forever, isn't it? Derek: I hope not, but I think so. Meredith: Yeah, me too. Derek: Yeah. Meredith: I moved Holden to a room on 4, so... Derek: You lead, I'll follow. Meredith: Ok. (Forest) (George, Mr. O'Malley, Ronny & Jerry are trekking through some wilderness. They're decked out in camouflage army wear, carrying gn and coolers) Ronny: '65 GTO. Jerry: '57 Bel-air convertible. Two-door. Mr. O'Malley: The GT 500. Now that was a car. Georgie pick a car. Come on. George: You do you realize that you can buy a turkey? At the market? They've got hundreds of them. You know all wrapped. They're ready to go. No amo required. Mr. O'Malley: You'll be the one to sht the turkey today. I can feel it. George: See that's the thing. I don't wanna sht the turkey. Jerry: You say that every year! George: Well and every year I don't sht the turkey. (Meredith's kitchen) (Izzie is on the phone again. Cristina is sitting on a high chair at the island. Burke is holding a pan that is smoking. He points to the pan) Burke: What is that? Izzie: It was supposed to be my marinade. (Speaks into the phone) Alex it's me again. Just wondering where you're at. (She hangs up) Burke (says as a statement): You've never made a Thanksgiving dinner before. (Izzie is quiet slightly nodding) Cristina (affronted): You can't cook! Izzie! Izzie (defensive): Well I'm a baker! I bake. But I've seen my grandmother cook a million times. (Dr. Burke shrugs off his coat and puts it in a nearby chair) Cristina: Okay that's it. If there's no food I'm going home. Burke: Cristina, Cristina, I have this. (To Izzie) What are you using as a reference text? Izzie (she gestures to a book on the island): 'The joy of cooking'. I also printed up some recipes from the internet but they all seem to contradict one another. (She wanders over to the sink) And I can't figure out which side of the turkey is up and which is the bottom. (Cristina moves to speak but Burke gestures her to be quiet. He walks over to the sink and washes his hands) Burke: Ok. Ok. Um. I'm gonna need the basing brush, a bowl, uh a clove of garlic (Izzie starts looking madly for the stuff) and ah do you have any fennel? Izzie: Uh yeah right here. (She brings the fennel to the sink. Burke rolls and cracks his neck. Izzie smiles excitedly. It's very reminiscent of a surgery) Burke: Ah ok, well let's get this turkey up and running Stevens. Garlic. (He holds at his hand) Izzie (she slaps the garlic into his hand): Garlic. (She grins broadly. She looks back at Cristina who looks anything but amused) Cristina (to herself): I'm gonna need liquor. Lots and lots of liquor. (Holden is lying unconscious in a patient room. Derek is standing on one side of the bed checking his eyes with a small flashlight. Meredith is standing on the other side of the bed watching) Derek: There's no sustained visual pursuit. You might have just seen him respond to some sort of external stimuli. He wasn't looking at you. I'm sorry. Meredith (leans in close over Holden): And I was sure he was. (Suddenly Holden's eyes dart towards Meredith) Look he just did it again. Derek: Mr. McKee can you follow the light? (He holds the flashlight above Holden's eyes moving it back and forth. Holden's eyes don't move) Derek: Can you hold up two fingers? (No movement again. Derek gives a look as to say see?) Meredith (looking at Derek): Well okay I know you're late for something ... (Derek notices Holden's eyes move towards Meredith) Derek (looking at Holden): Keep talking. Meredith: What? Derek (he gestures to his side): Walk over here. Meredith: What? Derek: Just keep walking. Talk. Meredith (walks over to the other side): Holden. Holden. Holden, can you hear me? Holden. (Holden's eyes move to where Meredith is standing) Derek (amazed): It's you. He's tracking you. He's following your voice. (Meredith nods slightly) (Meredith & Derek are looking at some x-ray scans of Holden in the x-ray room) Derek: Well that's why there's no mention of brain atrophy in the CT report. Cause there isn't any. Meredith: None? He's been PVS for 16 years. Derek: Well, he's not PVS. He's minimally conscious. Meredith: He's minimally conscious and no-one noticed? Derek: Had he been in a state of the art neural facility they'd have tested him but...He was in a regular nursing home so they just ... Meredith: ... missed it. Derek: Mmm. Meredith: He's been frozen. Sleeping for 16 years and they missed it. That sucks. Derek: There's one thing to be thankful for. Meredith: What? Derek: We might be able to wake him up. (Alex is studying in the empty hallway hangout area. He's listening some of the voicemails Izzie has left him) Izzie: Alex, its Izzie. If you're not coming you could have at least have the decency to call and tell me. (Alex shuts his phone frustrated and hits his back against the wall but continues to study) (George is on his mobile phone behind a tree while his brothers and father are a few feet away. He's on the phone to Cristina who's stuck townhouse searching for liquor but coming up empty handed. The scene alternates between the Townhouse and the Wilderness) George: I'm in hell. Cristina: I'm the one in hell. Burke's going all Iron Chef in your kitchen. Get your ass back here and save me. George: I'm in the woods with gn, and liquor and car talk. It's like deliverance out here. (George sees his brother's having a drinking contest) Cristina: Well at least you've got liquor. Where does Meredith keep the booze? George: Uh I don't think she has any. Cristina (mortified expression on her face): How's that possible? She's a wasp. Liquor is like oxygen to a wasp. George: Which is why we're out of liquor. Listen, can you come and get me? Cristina (yells): Ok how am I supposed to get through the holidays without liquor George?!? (She moves to hang up the phone) George: Just come and get me! Cris ... hello? (He shuts his phone close and hisses to it) Selfish! (Addison is sitting by herself at a bench in a courtyard of sorts with a view of the harbor with a picnic basket. She's on her phone) Addison: Derek, it's me. Where are you? (She hangs up) (Meredith and Derek are standing at the top of a stairway looking at the ground floor waiting room packed with people sitting) Derek (his phone beeps): Which one do you think she is? Meredith (looking at the people intently): Holden's wife? Derek: Yeah. (There is a woman holding a large handing bag looking down at the ground. A man on one side reading the paper and a teenage boy just sitting with his palms in his hands) Meredith: It's her. (She starts walking down the stairs) Derek: How do you know? (Meredith walks a few steps up to the woman with the bag and who is actually pregnant) Meredith: Mrs. McKee? (The woman named Mrs. Cheryl Leonard stands up) Cheryl: It's Mrs. Leonard now. (Holden's patient room. The 3 people are all there now. The man is Mr. Hal Leonard and the teenage boy is Coby McKee. Holden & Cheryl's son. Meredith and Derek are telling them the news) Cheryl (slightly upset): What do you mean wake him up? Derek: Well over the years your husband's brain has been slowly trying to heal itself. Now we've given him a course of amphetamine that should give his brain the push it needs to find consciousness. Coby (agitated): When? How long does it take? Derek: If we're right, your father will be awake in a few hours. Coby: Is he gonna realize what happened? Derek: Most patients in this situation have no idea how much time has passed. Cheryl: Oh god. Coby: I'm gonna be sick. (He rushes into the bathroom adjoined to the room and slams the door) Derek: I know this is a difficult situation ... Cheryl (interrupts): I just got married. We're having a baby in December. And Coby turns 17 on Thursday. (upset) Difficult? Dif, this is unimaginable! I can't be here when he wakes up. He can't see me like this or Coby. (she knocks on the bathroom door) Coby baby we're leaving. (to Mr. Leonard) We'll be in the car. (Meredith moves to talk to Mrs. Leonard who has dragged her son out of the bathroom and towards the entrance of the room) Meredith: Mrs. Leonard. Cheryl (upset): Holden is gonna wake up and find out that we didn't wait for him. He's a good person. How could you do this to him? (She walks off. Camera switches to Mr. Leonard who also looks upset) Derek: You should get her back. Hal: I'll try but I don't know. It took her a long time to move on. (He walks out of the room) (Derek and Meredith are standing on a rooftop overlooking Seattle) Derek: We did the right thing. Medically, Holden's out patient and we treated him. Meredith: I'm sure he'll thank us later. Derek: Meredith, it's... Meredith: Did you see that kid's face? Holden is a complete stranger to him. Derek: Cases like this are... Meredith: It's not cases like this. It's this one case. You don't get it. You have a life. You go to sleep, you wake up and that life doesn't exist anymore? That man has no one. Everyone's moved on. Except for him. It's not an easy thing. Derek: I'm sorry. (He puts his hand on her arm) Meredith: I know. (Bailey is scrubbing her hands at a sink in a hallway all scrubbed up. Dr. Kent comes up striding towards her looking peeved) Dr. Kent: What are you doing up here? Get down to the pit. We're backed up. Bailey: No can do sir. The nzi has me on this surgery. Dr. Kent: We've got a line out the door for sutures. Everybody's an amateur chef until they get a Knfe in their hands. Bailey (shrugs, making her way towards an O.R): Knives can be tricky. (Bailey is getting gloves put on by the scrubs nurses. Richard is standing in there already scrubbed next to the patient lying on the operating table who has a very large Knfe sticking out of his back) Bailey: Your wife know you're working today? Richard: I'm going home. I just wanted to watch a little bit. Bailey: Yeah well don't stay here to long. Could end up like him. (She looks pointedly the patient) Wife sab him. Said she didn't like the way he was carving the turkey. Richard: Ouch. (Cristina is opening the front door of the townhouse. Joe is at the front with a good looking Asian guy) Joe: Happy Thanksgiving! Cristina: Joe thank god! Joe: Hey, this is my boyfriend Walter. (Walter raises his hand to say hi) Cristina: Whatever. Tell me you brought liquor. Joe (holds out pie): I brought pie. Pumpkin. Cristina (disbelievingly): You're a bartender! Joe: Did you bring scalpels? (Cristina motions her frustration and grabs the pie off Joe) (Forest) (George is with his family crouching down near a tree. George is using a tool to make a turkey bird noise) Mr. O'Malley (pokes George): Come on, pick a car. George: I don't wanna pick a car. Ronny: He doesn't know jack about cars. George (mutters): I know plenty I just don't wanna pick one. (Jerry hears this and rolls his eyes) Mr. O'Malley: Georgie's just tired. They working you too hard at the hospital? (To Ronny) You know he works 48 hour shifts? Ronny: 48 hours and you enjoy it? George: Yeah I enjoy it. Jerry: Like what do you do? George: You know, medical stuff. (Jerry rolls eyes again) Mr. O'Malley: Come on. George (smiling): They're not gonna get it. Mr. O'Malley: Make your brothers jealous. Tell them what it's like to be a big time surgeon. Come on. George (little more perked up): Okay. Last night this was pretty cool. I assisted on a truncal vagotomy and we ah inflated this ... Jerry (interrupts): Assisted? ... Wait what do you mean? George: I helped a surgeon. Anyway we inflated this guy's abdomen ... Ronny (interrupts): Woah wait you helped the surgeon? George: I'm a surgical intern. The resident or the attending, they perform the surgery. Jerry: So you don't actually cut anybody open? I mean, by yourself? George (slightly defensive): No. Jerry: Do you hand the surgeon stuff that he needs? Scalpels? George: That's a scrub nurse. Mr. O'Malley: Georgie does that thing with the gas that puts the patient to sleep. George: No, Dad. Dad, that's the anesthesiologist. Ronny: Well what? Do you like take the patient to surgery? George: Um...orderly. No, like the point of being of an intern is that you're learning. We watch the surgeries and the attending asks us questions and we have to answer them. It's not easy. I have to be on top of my game 100% of the time. It's incredibly difficult. Jerry: So you don't actually do anything. (George gives him a look to which Jerry raises his eyebrows) George: Yes I do. Ronny: You just stand there. George (frustrated): No! I assist ... Ronny (interrupts): Watching while the real doctors work. George: No! I uh! I'm a real doctor! What? Dad! Ronny (interrupts): What? You just stand there, so you don't do anything. George: No! I didn't ... no you said I didn't do anything! Jerry (interrupts): Real doctors save lives Georgie. I mean if you're just standing there ... George: Oh for god's ... ! (Jerry & Ronny break out into laughter. Mr. O'Malley whacks Ronny) Ronny: What? (George sits stiffly looking upset and starts making the turkey calls again) George: I wanna go home. Mr. O'Malley: Just as soon as you sh*t your turkey. (Meredith is sitting on the floor of Holden McKee's patient room. He is still unconscious. Alex comes to the open door and knocks on the inside wall) Alex: What are you doing here? Meredith: Waiting for my patient to wake up. Alex: Why aren't you at the Thanksgiving? Meredith: Why aren't you at Thanksgiving? (Alex gives her a wry smile and enters the room. He sits down next to her groaning slightly and looks at Meredith) Meredith: What? Alex: I tell you something, you tell me something. (Meredith looks at him and closes her patient file that she was looking at) Meredith: Ok. I feel like one of those people who's so freaking miserable they can't be around normal people. Like, I'll infect the happy people. Like, I'm some miserable, diseased, dirty ex-mistress. Your turn. Alex: I failed the medical boards. If I tell Izzie she'll be nice about it and all supportive and optimistic. She might as well rip my nads off and turn them into earrings. Meredith: Alex, you should go to Thanksgiving. I mean don't tell her if you don't want to, but you should go. Otherwise you're just ... me. Alex (nods slightly): A miserable diseased dirty ex-mistress? (Meredith smiles and Alex whistles continuing to nod) Alex: It's hot. (Meredith laughs) It's really hot. I feel better already. Meredith (still smiling): See? (Alex gives her a reassuring pat, ruffles her hair and stands up) Alex: Happy Thanksgiving. (He leaves the room. Meredith looks down and picks up her patient charts and starts heading out of the room) Holden: Hello? (She stops walking immediately and turns to Holden's bedside) Holden: Is somebody there? (Meredith walks up quickly to his bed) Somebody? Meredith: Yes. (He looks at her) Somebody's here. (She takes one of his hands in hers) (Meredith is still with Holden. Derek is there with 3 nurses looking over Holden) Derek: Mr. McKee your muscles have suffered deterioration and your joints will be painful for a while which is to be expected. Now the fact that your communication skills are still intact is remarkable. Holden: Did you reach my wife yet? Is she coming? I mean have you told her? Or do you wait until she gets here because this is gonna be quite a shock. (Derek nods slightly) Holden (to Meredith): How long have I been out? (Meredith gives Derek a look) A year? Derek (to the nurses & Meredith): Could you excuse us please? (The nurse's and Meredith start making their way out) Holden (calls out to Meredith): You tell me. (Meredith stops looking at Derek) Please. You found me. You tell me. Meredith: I'm only an intern. I've never really done this before. Holden: Me either. You'll do it quickly. Rip off the bandage. Derek: Hmm. No anesthesia. Holden: Exactly. Derek (nods slightly): Hmm. I'll be right outside if you need me. (Derek glances at Meredith briefly before he walks out of the room) Holden (lets out a shaky breath): Truth time. Meredith: Truth time. Holden: How bad is this truth gonna be? Meredith: It's bad, Holden. (Meredith is in the room alone with Holden, we can't hear what is said but Holden lets out a noise of shock.) (Meredith's Townhouse kitchen where Izzie is chopping celery with a large Knfe on the kitchen island. Dr. Burke is standing beside her. The following scene is very reminiscent of the very first episode with George's first surgery) Burke: Hmm. You have to cut the celery into finer pieces Stevens. Izzie: Uh huh. (She cuts a few more) Like that? Burke: That'll do. Put them in with the onions. (Izzie grabs the chopped pieces and places them with a bowl of chopped onions) Burke: Now, what should you be concerned about? Izzie: Um ... Burke: The turkey, Stevens. I expect you to know that. Izzie: Right. I need to check the turkey to see if it's cooking at the correct temperature. (They head over to the oven) Burke: And how do we do that? Izzie: Meat thermometer. (Joe, Walter and Cristina are sitting at a table watching the whole cooking show) Joe: 10 bucks says she dries out the turkey. Walter: 20 says she pulls it off. Cristina: 75 says I don't care. (Izzie has opened the oven and pulled out the turkey in its tray out a bit) Burke: Hmm. Okay Stevens, let's see what you can do. (Izzie puts in the meat thermometer) Burke: Alright. More pressure. Turkey has a tough shell. Dig in. (Izzie pushes the thermometer in further) Izzie: I'm in. (Joe, Walter & Cristina) Joe: Damn she got it in. Walter: Told you she was going to pull it off. (Cristina looks extremely discomfited by the whole situation. Camera focuses back on Burke & Izzie) Burke: Good, not bad. Now all you have to do is get the thermometer deep enough to get a temp. But be careful not too ... Burke & Izzie (at the same time): Oh! Burke: You ht the bone! The pan is filling with juice and you're losing moisture. What do you do? Izzie (panicking): Uh ... um Burke: Think! (Cristina grabs her stuff) Cristina: That's it. I'm out of here. (She gets up and starts walking down the hallway to the front door. Burke runs after her. He stops her in the foyer) Burke: Hey what's the problem? Cristina: You're operating on a turkey and ... and, and you're making friends with my friends. Burke: Shh. You told me to be nice. Cristina: It will be nice. You know I'm just gonna go to the store and ah get some liquor. Can I have the keys please? (Burke hands her the keys confused) I'll be back. (Cristina leaves the house. Camera goes back to Joe & Walter who look amazed) Izzie (calls out): Dr. Burke! (Burke makes his way back to the kitchen) Burke: Suction! Use the baster for suction! (Forest ) (George is still sitting with his family at the same tree waiting for a turkey to come by) Mr. O'Malley: GT 500 was a Shelby. He also made the viper, you know that? George: Yes, we do know. Ronny: The Shelby 500 is a good car. Jerry: Yeah. Mr. O'Malley: And the other car he made is ... (He stops talking when he sees a turkey all of a sudden appear a few meters away. Jerry instantly lifts up his gn to sht it but George grabs it stopping him) George: Turkey. Turkey. Jerry, we came out here so I could sht a turkey. Dad said we're not leaving until I sht a turkey. I am shting this turkey! (Jerry puts his gn down annoyed and George lifts up his rfle taking aim at the bird) Mr. O'Malley (whispers): When you're sure you've got it, squeeze ... Ronny (whispers to Jerry): Don't worry about it. He's not gonna do it. He's gonna chicken out and you ... (All of sudden George fires his gn. Jerry & Ronny get shocked looks on their faces) Mr. O'Malley: Yahoo! (They all stand up to look at the bird) Ronny (stunned): He got it. George: I got it? Mr. O'Malley (gleeful): You got it Georgie! George (happy): Let's go home! (MRI Room) (Holden is lying on the table for the MRI machine. Meredith is standing at his feet) Holden (teary-eyed): What's he like? ... My son? Meredith: You know I didn't really get a chance to speak with him. But he seemed nice. He's ah tall like you and he's got your eyes. Holden: That ... that's good. (Meredith nods and looks back to the viewing room we're Derek is standing with a MRI tech. He gives her a slight nod. She turns back to Holden) Meredith: Holden, we're ready to begin. Holden (scared): What does the MRI do? Meredith: Just gives us a better picture of your brain really. You're one for the books you know? Holden: That's nice. Meredith: If you're ready. Holden: When I went down into that fre...we were going on vacation the next day. Taking the baby to see my mom. She was so excited. I tried to call my mom today. But, um...she's dad now. My mother's been dad for eight years. I'm ready. Meredith: Ok. (Derek and the MRI tech look on from the viewing room. Meredith comes to the door) Derek: How's he doing? Meredith: As well as we could expect. (Meredith walks into the room and they both look at the images of Holden's brain being produced by the MRI) Meredith: Damn it. (Holden is lying on a hospital bed that's been propped up. Derek & Meredith are talking to him) Derek: An epidural hematoma. When you fell out of your bed this morning you ht your temple, hard. CT didn't catch it but, the MRI did. Holden: And you can fix it? (Holden & Meredith make eye contact while Derek speaks) Derek: Won't be easy. Sometimes it's impossible to find the vessel and complications can rise but yes, I can operate. Holden: But so there is a risk? Derek: Very large risk, yes. Holden: And what happens if you don't operate? Derek: Best case scenario is that the bleeding resolves itself. Or it can continue to bleed and cause the brain to swell. Holden: Which means what? Meredith: Most likely, without the operation, you'll die. Holden: But the operation could kll me too, right? Derek: There are equal risks both ways. Holden (to Meredith): What do I do? What would you do? Meredith: I can't answer this for you. (Holden sighs sadly and closes his eyes) (Meredith's kitchen) (Dr. Burke & Izzie are preparing more food for the dinner at the island in the kitchen) Izzie: Can I have that spatula please? Thank you. (Izzie starts tossing some onions around that are chopped up in a pan. Burke places something on an oven tray and looks over Izzie's shoulder) Burke: You want the butter to melt, not to boil. (Izzie stops with her onions and picks up a wooden spoon and starts mixing the butter in another pan) Izzie: Dr. Burke, how did you learn to cook like this? (Burke starts mixing the onions next to Izzie) Burke: My mother owns a restaurant in Alabama. Izzie: Seriously? Burke: Seriously. Izzie: Does Cristina know that? Burke: No. Actually, she doesn't. Izzie: She doesn't ask a lot of personal questions. She's kinda hard to get to know. Burke (smiles): Yes, she is. ... Karev didn't show? Izzie: No he didn't. Burke: Is that okay? Izzie: No, it's not. (Joe comes up to the kitchen doorway holding an empty wine glass) Joe: Do you know that there's absolutely no liquor in this house? Burke: Ah yeah Cristina went to get some. Izzie: Over an hour ago. Where is she? (SGH, waiting room) (A large black man who looks like he is about to choke stands up when he here's his name called by Cristina who has a yellow gown over her clothes holding his chart. Addison gets out of the elevator.) Addison: Dr. Yang. Cristina: Um...yes? Addison: Have you seen my husband? Cristina: No, I have not. Addison: Do you know where he is? Cristina: No, I do not. Addison: He was supposed to meet me hours ago. (They both stand there awkwardly for a moment) Cristina: I'm not here. Addison: Neither am I. (They walk off in opposite directions. Cristina stops and picks up a chart and calls for the patient) Cristina: Levi Johnson? Mr. Johnson (difficulty speaking): Yes. Cristina: You swallowed a wishbone? Mr. Johnson (chokes): Yes. (She starts walking down a hallway with Mr. Johnson following behind) Cristina (smiling broadly): Excellent. We'll have to take some films. Maybe you ruptured your esophagus, huh? That means surgery. (She passes Dr. Kent who is still doing sutures) Dr. Kent: I don't believe this. (Forest) (George is packing up the Ute they obviously all drove down. He slams the back shut) George: Car's loaded! (He turns to Jerry & Ronny who are sitting on the drinking coolers nearby) George: Guys! Coolers! Come on. Get up, get up, get up! (They get up and he grabs the coolers and places them in the back as well) George: Dad, come on! (Mr. O'Malley comes up to George holding the dad turkey wrapped up and places it in the back as well) Mr. O'Malley: Hold on Georgie. We've gotta blood you. (He reaches his hand into the wrapped up turkey) George: Oh no. No. (Mr. O'Malley smears two blood finger streaks on both of George's cheeks) Mr. O'Malley: Now there you go. Now you're officially an O'Malley man. Jerry & Ronny (yell together): O'Malley! Mr. O'Malley: I uh left my hat. (Mr. O'Malley walks up a bit the road while Jerry & Ronny smother George in a hug) Jerry & Ronny (yell): O'Malley! George (laughs): Guys! Just get in the car. Ronny: O'Malley! Jerry: O'Malley! Ronny: Twenty-one gn salute for Georgie! (They both draw up their gn to sht) George: That's not the best idea guys. I'm serious, don't! (Ronny's gn accidentally goes off. A large moan of pain is heard from Mr. O'Malley. Ronny looks stunned. Jerry looks up and is also shocked. George upset turns to Ronny) George (yells): You sht Dad in the ass! Are you happy now? (He storms off up to his father) (Trauma room) (Mr. O'Malley is lying on a hospital gurney face down dressed in a hospital gown. Ronny & Jerry are also in there playing with the equipment. George walks in and is dismayed by the sight) Jerry: It's like laser tag. Ronny: Not in the eyes. George: Guys! This is the trauma room, what are you doing? (George puts on his gloves and gestures to Ronny who is holding a piece of hospital equipment) George: Put it down. Dad I'm gonna inject you with something to numb the area. Mr. O'Malley: Ahh ah I'm fine. I don't need anything. It doesn't even hurt that bad. George: Dad you have a bird sht embedded in your (he stops himself) ... gluteus maximus. When I start removing it believe me it's gonna hurt very bad. Jerry (to Ronny): Hey, the '65 GTO. (George gets a very frustrated and annoyed look on his face) Ronny (scoffs): That's a V8 tweaker. (Mr. O'Malley smiles) Jerry: You don't want that. What you want is the Bel Air. (To Mr. O'Malley) But it's gotta be the two tone right? Mr. O'Malley: Right. (They all chuckle except for George) Pick a car Georgie. George: No thanks. Jerry: Come on Georgie. Pick a car. Ronny: I told you he doesn't know jack about cars. Jerry: He doesn't know jack about jack. George (in a very controlled voice): Jerry. First you say the GTO. Ronny counters with the Bel Air which never fails to make Dad say the GT 500. (He starts getting louder and angrier. Jerry & Ronny get quiet looks on their face) The cobra, the Chieftan. Then someone names a German car which invariably starts the American versus foreign debate that usually ends when one of you brings up the DeVille. And that always, always leads to the unbelievably long discussion on the merits of the '57 thunderbird. (he is now yelling) So how about I just jump to the end and name the thunderbird now so that once in our lives we can stop picking cars! (He takes off his gloves angrily) And my name is George! (He leaves the room angrily) (Holden's room. Meredith is watching from the nurse's station. Derek walks up to her and notices that Coby is in the room with Holden as well) Derek: What do you know? The kid came back. Meredith: No he didn't. (Coby is leaving the room. He stops in front of Meredith & Derek) Coby (shrugs upset): He says we have the same eyes. Derek: Yeah. Coby: Didn't see it. (He walks off) (Meredith opens the door to Holden's room were Holden looks devastated. She stands at the doorway) Holden (teary eyed): He said that he couldn't stay ... because of the holiday. But he, he said he'll come back some time soon. Meredith (nods): Good. Holden (smiles): Yeah. He said she's happy. Ah that this guy, Hal, is really good for her. She loves him. (He takes a deep breath. Meredith looks sad for him) So I've decided to ah go ahead with the surgery. Um, they've moved on. I should too. Now get this thing outta my head and let me get on with my life. Meredith: (slightly teary eyed): Right. (She nods) I'll ah tell Dr. Shepherd. (She moves to close the door) Holden: Dr. Grey. Meredith: Yeah? Holden: Do you think he really will come back? Meredith: I hope so. (Meredith's kitchen) (Burke is checking on the turkey in the oven as Izzie walks back into the kitchen) Izzie: Joe and Walter have got the table set up in the living room. How's our bird? Burke: He needs a few more hours. (Izzie sighs and grabs a few plates from a cupboard) Burke: Why did you plan this big dinner if you knew you couldn't cook? Izzie (shrugs): I just like Thanksgiving, Dr. Burke. Burke: Preston. Izzie (smiles): Preston. Burke: You just like Thanksgiving? Izzie: Doctor-patient confidentiality? Burke: Doctor-patient confidentiality. Izzie: Ok. We work 18 hours a day, 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year. We don't really have any time for our families. We don't have friends that aren't doctors, but we have this one day, where we don't have to cut anyone open. One day where we get to be like everybody else. One day to be normal. A day where nobody lives and nobody dies on our watch. It's like a gift. So I just thought we should appreciate it. That's all. (She grabs the plates and shrugs) Gotta set the table. (Izzie leaves the kitchen. Burke slowly nods and smiles) Burke: A day without surgery. (SGH, operating room) (Bailey is operating on the guy who swallowed the wishbone. She holds up the said wishbone she has just removed eye-level. Cristina is also in there by her side) Bailey: Now who swallows a wishbone whole? Cristina: Dr. Bailey, why are you working on Thanksgiving? Bailey: You work the extra shifts and get the extra practice. Trying to get in all the practice I can ... before the baby comes (Cristina looks up at this) and I have to take time off. My husband isn't thrilled I'm working Thanksgiving but he isn't a surgeon so he doesn't get it. Cristina: Oh. Bailey: You and Dr. Burke? Cristina: Yeah. Bailey: He would've made a good father. (Dr. Kent opens the OR door) Dr. Kent: They said the nzi was in here. Bailey: He was, but he left. I think he went down to the pit. (He leaves and Cristina gives Bailey a look) Bailey: Don't ask. (Holden is being placed on a hospital gurney in an OR room. Meredith is watching from the doorway. Derek comes up to her ready to start performing the surgery) Derek: Hey. You coming? Meredith: Not enough interns. I gotta cover the floor. (Derek shrugs at her) What would you have done if you were him? Would you have the surgery? Derek: You would have the surgery. Meredith (nods): I would want the future or to be asleep again. One or the other. Nothing in between. Derek: I honestly don't know what I'd want. Meredith: I know you don't. Derek (nods): If you get a chance you can scrub in later. I'm gonna be at this a while. (He walks into the OR) (George is walking back into the trauma where his father is still lying on the gurney. Ronny & Jerry are nowhere to be seen) Mr. O'Malley: I thought you'd forgotten about me. George: No. (loud) Where are Ronny and Jerry? Mr. O'Malley: Nurse told them that the cafeteria was open. George: Oh. (George starts prepping again to remove the bllet) Mr. O'Malley: You didn't have fun today. George: It's not that ... (he shakes his head) No. No I didn't have fun. Mr. O'Malley: You hurt your brothers' feelings. George: Dad! Mr. O'Malley: You did. George: They talk to me like I'm stupid. They call me Georgie. They've never treated me like I'm one of them. Mr. O'Malley: George, Jerry is a dry cleaner. Ronny works in a post office. I drive a truck. You're a surgeon. You're not one of us. I know it and they know it. You make sure we know it. (George starts removing the bllet) George: Dad. Mr. O'Malley: I'm, I'm not blaming you. It makes me proud that you're so smart. Like I did something right. It's just ... we try! We try to include you but, you don't like the stuff that we like. And we don't know how to talk about the stuff that you want to talk about. You're not one of us but, damn it we don't treat you like you're stupid. You treat us like we're stupid. And maybe we are but we're your family. Give us an inch, Georgie. Every once in a while, pick a car. (There's a silence) George: I saved a guy's life on an elevator last month. I performed open heart surgery on him right there. Mr. O'Malley: By yourself? George: By myself. Just like a real doctor. Mr. O'Malley: Hmm. (amazed) Hm! That's something. That's really something. (Meredith is washing up in the scrub room adjacent to the OR with Holden's surgery. She's getting ready to go in when she looks up through the window. Everyone is scrambling around. A doctor is performing CPR. She drops the bar of soap she is holding shocked. Holden's heart monitor has flat lined. Derek sighs and shakes his head slightly to Meredith. Meredith looks down sad) (Derek and Meredith are walking out of the OR. They see Coby sitting by himself in an empty side waiting room. He stands up when sees them) Derek (sighs): I'll take care of it. (Meredith is sitting by herself in the staff locker room. She looks up when she sees Cristina walking by) Meredith: What are you doing here? (George walks into the locker room and does a double take when he sees Cristina. He then spots Meredith) George: Oh. This is beyond bad. (Cristina looks away slightly ashamed) (Meredith's dining room) (Izzie is sitting at the head of the table. Joe & Walter walk in. Joe walks up to her and gives her a kiss on the forehead) Joe: Sorry, Izzie it's after 8. Gotta get to the bar. Izzie: On Thanksgiving? Joe: It's one of our busiest days of the year. People need a safe haven from the bitterness, loneliness, quality family time. I'm their important store. See you later? Izzie: Yeah. Joe (to Burke is sitting at the other head of the table): Night Doc. Burke: Night Joe. Izzie: Bye Walter. Thanks for coming. (They wave and leave the house) Izzie: You can leave too if you want. Burke: I'm not leaving the table until the hostess does. Izzie: They're not coming. Burke: Even so. (Izzie smiles. Suddenly there's the sound of the key turning the door lock. George & Cristina enter the house and walk into the living room where the table is set. Cristina sits down near Burke. George approaches Izzie before sitting down) George (whispers to Izzie): Today I committed bird mrder and I was forced to touch my Dad's ass. I get extra points for showing up at all. (Cristina reaches into her bag and places some bottles on the table) Cristina: I brought booze. (Izzie stands up as if to say something mad but changes her mind and smiles) Izzie: Let's just eat. (She sits back down) (SGH Parking lot) (Meredith and Derek are sitting on a bench together. He sighs and stands up) Derek: You know today in the waiting room, how did you know Cheryl was Holden's wife? Meredith: Waiting rooms are full of people hoping for good news. She was the only one who looked like she had completely given up. Derek: Yeah. (He starts to walk off but Meredith speaks) Meredith: Do you love her? (He stops, turns around and sits back down) Derek (shakes his head slightly): I don't know. Meredith: It's good that you're trying. You wouldn't be you if you weren't the kind of person who's trying to make it work. Derek (softly): You think so? Meredith: Yeah. (She smiles) It means I wasn't wrong about you. Derek: Thanks. (Meredith stands up to leave. She looks at him meaningfully) Meredith: Goodbye, Derek. Derek: Bye, Meredith. (She turns around and starts walking away) MVO: Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. (Meredith is standing outside on the porch of the Townhouse looking in at Cristina, Burke, George & Izzie all talking and laughing having dinner) Alex: Hey. (She turns around and Alex is standing behind her) Meredith: Hey. Alex: You going inside? Meredith: Nah you go ahead. Alex: You sure? Meredith: Yeah. Go make her happy. Alex: Yeah. (He opens the front door and walks in. Meredith turns back to watch and sees Alex walk in and hug Izzie) MVO: Maybe being grateful is recognizing what you have for what it is. (SGH hallway) (Richard is standing in front of the OR board. Bailey walks up to him) Bailey: You're a surgical junkie! Go home! Richard: Adele's already mad. I'm in trouble no matter what. And there's a Whipple happening in OR 2. Bailey: Go home right now! (She walks off to the nearby elevator which dings open. Dr. Kent gets off as she gets on) Richard (yells at her as she gets on the elevator): This kinda treatment is why they call you the n*zi! (Dr. Kent stops at this shocked and turns around to look at Bailey. She stands smugly) MVO: Appreciate small victories. Bailey (to Dr. Kent): Happy Thanksgiving. (The elevator doors shut) (Burke & Cristina are sitting in his car outside the townhouse) Burke: I was nice. Cristina (smiles): Yeah. I noticed. Burke: You don't ask a lot of personal questions and you're very hard to get to know. Cristina: Yes. Burke: My mother owns a restaurant in Alabama. Cristina: I scrubbed in on a foreign body removal this afternoon. A guy swallowed a wishbone whole. (Burke chuckles and starts the car) MVO: Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. (Derek is driving home in the pouring rain. He pulls his car to stop in front of his trailer where Addison sits waiting on the porch. He gets out and walks through the rain and stops in front of her) Addison: You didn't show. (Derek nods) So, um...I bought Chinese food. And I waited. It was good. Now it's luke warm and old. Which makes it just like the food we used to have in medical school. So...(He looks down) Derek, are you done? Hurting me back? I mean cause I need to know. Cause if not ... I gotta special order a thicker skin or something. MVO: Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. (Derek sits down next to her and looks at her) Derek: No anesthesia in sight. (Addison looks at him hopefully as he starts leaning in) Derek: Here we go. (They kiss) MVO: And maybe we're thankful for things we'll never know. (Joe's bar) (Meredith is sitting at the bar by herself reading a book with a drink. A good looking guy walks up to her) Guy: Is this seat taken? (Meredith looks up and then glances at Joe who awaits her answer. She looks back at the guy) Meredith: Do you work at the hospital? Guy (smiles): No. Meredith: You're not a brain surgeon or a doctor of any kind? Guy: No. (Meredith looks back at Joe who smiles and then looks back at the guy) Meredith: Then this seat isn't taken. (The guy sits down) MVO: At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing ... Meredith: Do you want to buy me a drink? Guy: Actually I do. (Meredith smiles) MVO: ... is reason enough to celebrate.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x09 - Thanks for the Memories"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x10: Much Too Much Original Airdate: 11/27/2005 Written by: Harry Werksman & Gabrielle Stanton Directed by: Wendey Stanzler (Opens with two people hurriedly taking each other's clothes off walking down the hallway of someone's home) MVO: When you were a kid, it was Halloween candy. (Meredith is with some guy. Burke and Cristina are making out passionately as they manoeuvre themselves into Burke's apartment) MVO: You hid it from your parents and ate it until you got sick. (Cristina loses her jacket as Burke continues kissing her) Cristina: So, this is where you live? Burke: Oh hell. (He picks her up and carries her to what I'm assuming is his bedroom. Cristina lets out a burst of laughter) MVO: In college it was the heady combo of youth, tequila and well you know... (Izzie and Alex are entering the townhouse from a date. They start making out passionately, losing clothes along the way as they make their way up stairs) (Addison and Derek are in the shower together. Derek moves forward and kisses her) MVO: As a surgeon you take as much of the good as you can get... because it doesn't come around nearly as often as it should. (Meredith is making out with what appears to be a different guy in her bedroom) MVO: Cause good things aren't always what they seem. (Addison rolls away from Derek and lying beside him in their bed. Meredith drops herself beside her current bed mate an Indian guy named Steve Murphy looking a little unsatisfied and dazed? Derek has the same unsatisfied look. Addison is breathless and smiling.) Addison: That was amazing. Derek (looks like he's lying): Yeah. MVO: Too much of anything, even love is not always a good thing. (Meredith and Steve in her bed. Meredith turns away from Steve so her back is facing him. He looks at her) Steve: Did you... (he nods fervently even though she can't see) Meredith: Yeah, I did. (Seattle Scene) (Meredith's room) (Meredith is sitting in pink robe on a chair next to her bed. Steve is still in bed asleep. She's on the phone to Cristina) Meredith: There's a boy in my bed. Cristina: What's his name? Meredith: Um, Steve. (Cristina is brushing her teeth at Burke's apartment. She leaves the bathroom and starts exploring the apartment still brushing her teeth) Cristina: Where'd you find him? Meredith: Joe's. Cristina: Hmm. Guess where I am? Meredith: Where? Cristina: Burke's apartment. He went to the hospital. (She makes it to the kitchen and spits into the sink) He left me here alone. Meredith: You're going through his stuff aren't you? Cristina: Oh! There's no stuff to go through. It's a freak show. I mean you could do surgery in here. (Cristina walks into his adjoined dining/living room which indeed is impeccable. Everything has a spot and there seems to be a lack of personal mementoes. Cristina notices his bookshelf and walks up close in horror) Cristina: Oh! He arranged his books using the Dewey decimal system. Mer, I'm scared. (Meredith is still sitting on her chair) Meredith: Get out. Get out of the house now. (Steve who has woken up now but is still in bed hears this and turns to Meredith) Steve: Who you talking to? (Meredith looks at him surprised he's awake) Meredith (to Cristina): Uh, I gotta go. (She flips the phone closed and stands up) Meredith: Uh I have to go take a shower and when I get back you won't be here so um, goodbye... Steve. (She nods and walks out of the bedroom) (Cristina is finishing getting ready and is in the kitchen looking for food in the fridge. She decides against it and closes the door. She notices a coffee maker and moves to grab the pot and a mug next to it. She picks up the mug and it jingles. So she reaches in and pulls out a key. She notices the yellow bit of paper that was under the mug and picks up to read it. The note reads: C, I had a key made for you. B. Cristina is left with a look of shock on her face) (Meredith's kitchen where George walks in with his laundry basket. Izzie is already in their making breakfast for herself. George starts sorting his laundry at the table) George: Well another sleepless night in Seattle. Izzie: Yeah, who was it this time? Hairy back guy? George: You know who I miss? Inappropriate facial hair guy. You know he did his own dishes? Izzie: Oh tattooed ass guy made coffee. George (makes a face): Yeah he was a keeper. (Izzie notices this and gives George a knowing look.) George: What? (Izzie raises her eyebrows at him) What? Meredith? (Izzie shrugs as if to say yup) I am over her. Izzie (disbelievingly): Ok. (George sits down at the table) George: I am. Izzie: Yeah I can see that. George: But is she trying to set some kind of record? (Izzie moves her breakfast to the table and joins George) Izzie: At least she has a goal. (Feet can be heard running down the stairs) Izzie: Oh! (George and Izzie both look to Steve moving hurriedly pass through the hallway and through the front door) George: Oh he's new. Izzie: And I shall name him 'Running Guy'. (she smiles) Hmm. George: You know who I heard Alex come home with last night? (eyes wide at Izzie grinning) You! Izzie: I don't want to talk about it. (George chuckles) Actually I really do want to talk about it. But he doesn't want to talk about because there were... technical difficulties. George: What? Izzie: You know he didn't... (She makes a gesture to show her hand going flop) he was... (George gets a look of absolute amazement and glee on his face) George (chuckles grinning): No. Izzie: Stop it. (George continues to laugh) You can't say anything! (George continues laughing) Izzie: George, stop it! George: I, I'm gonna at least think about making fun of him next time I see him. Izzie: He said it never happened before. George: Well that's what we all say. (Izzie raises her eyebrows) And I mean they. That's what they all say. Izzie: I don't know. Maybe this relationship just isn't meant to be. I mean I just, just need some sex George. You know just (she grabs his t-shirt and pulls her close to him) I need sex now. You know what I mean? George: No matter how hard you beg, I am not doing you. (He smiles and Izzie lets out a smile) (SGH) (Richard's office. Addison is signing the papers of her contract at a table while Patricia stands over her shoulder. Richard is sitting at his desk watching) Patricia: Nice to have you on board. Addison: Thank you, Patricia. (Patricia takes the papers and wanders off. Addison puts her white coat on stands in front of Richard's desk) Richard: Your own service. State of the art NICU. And a salary that'll make you one of the highest paid surgeons in the northwest. You better be worth it. Addison: Quintuplets, Richard. Richard: That's a goal. Addison: Mother-to-be checked in this morning. Richard: Nothing I like more than a high profile case. Addison: Well don't go calling the press in yet. It's an extremely high risk pregnancy. At least 3 of the babies are surgical. In fact I'm gonna need to pull people from all departments. Richard: You're my star. Whatever you need. (He stands up and they shake hands) (Mr. Robert Martin is lying in the CT scanner) Robert: Is there a meal service on this flight? (Alex is standing in the viewing room with Mr. Martin's chart. A CT tech guy is there at the comp. Derek walks in and Alex hands him the chart) Alex: Robert Martin, 45, collapsed and ht his head causing a small subdural hemorrhage. He also presents with uncontrolled hand movement and delirium. He's alcohol and tox screens were negative but his sodium levels were 112. Derek: Hmm. A little too low for my taste. Robert (calls out): Hey! Hey! Derek (speaks into the mic): Mr. Martin, how are you doing in there? Robert: I'm still waiting on that drink. Are you the stewardess? (Alex and Derek chuckle) Derek: We're, we're called flight attendants now. Robert: Hey! Hey! Derek (points to the computer screen with scans of Mr. Martin's brain): Oh there it is right there. On His pituitary. It's a Rathke's Cleft Cyst right there. Alex: So he's hyponatremic. Derek (nods): Yeah. Alex: Excessive thirst is a common side effect. The water is what's been screwing his sodium level. Derek: That's what's causing his delirium. So how do you ah treat hyponatremia? Alex: Ah, 3% hypertonic saline solution IV, 300ccs over 3 hours. Derek (hands back the chart): Great. Get him back to his room. Call me when he sab. Nicely done Dr. Karev. (Derek leaves) Robert (calls out): Hey! When does the movie start? (Dorie Russell the pregnant woman with the quintuplets is being checked on by Addison. Izzie is there watching. Tom Russell, Dorie's husband is on his mobile phone standing in the doorway) Addison: Dorie, this is Dr. Stevens. She will be working with us on this case. Dorie: Oh, the more the merrier. Izzie (chuckles): Apparently. How far along are you? Dorie: 32 weeks. Addison (to Izzie): How long is the normal gestation period? Izzie: 40 weeks but with twins ah 36 weeks is considered full term so with quints 34 weeks is considered extremely successful. (Addison smiles at Izzie) Tom (on phone): Just give him some acetaminophen. It's, it's in the medicine cabinet. Dorie: I plan on going on 36 weeks. (to her stomach) No one is leaving this uterus until I say so. Addison: Power of positive thinking, huh? Dorie: Well that, bed rest and all the medical care you can give me. Tom (on phone): Uh we're with the doctors now. So, I'll talk to you later. Ok. Bye. (he hangs up his phone and walks further into the room. Speaks to Dorie) Uh Adam's got a fever which means soon they'll all have fever. I don't think my mom's gonna manage. Dorie: Ah we have four year old boys at home. Adam, Oliver and Graham. Izzie (shocked): Triplets? You already have triplets?... I guess when you take those fertility pills you should read the fine print. Addison (admonishing tone): Dr. Stevens. Izzie: Uh, oh I'm sorry. I meant it as... Dorie (interrupts): It's okay, I'm used to it. I just really wanted a girl. Tom: Yeah, we just didn't bank on 5 girls. Dorie (smiling): But think of all the clothes and all that pink cuteness. Tom: Oh honey that's your happy place, remember? Dorie: Oh yeah. (Tom leans in for a kiss and hug. Addison moves towards Izzie and speaks to her privately) Addison: Try not to say everything that pops into your brain. (She hands Izzie Dorie's chart and walks out of the room) (SGH Entrance) (Meredith and Cristina are sitting in their scrubs outside on a bench with take-away coffee cups) Meredith: They always look so sad when I kick them out. (They both chuckle) Seriously, why do guys not understand that when you pick them up in a bar and take them home for sex, that there are no picket fences or kids in your future. (Cristina sighs and reaches into her pocket and pulls out the key Burke gave her, holding it up for Meredith to see) Meredith (smiles): Burke keyed you? Cristina: Got freaking keyed before coffee. Meredith (chuckles): What is wrong with them? Cristina: They're like these 1950s debutantes, one dance and there's a sht gn to your head. (Steve, Meredith's one night stand from this morning walks up to Meredith and Cristina holding a jacket in front of his lower abdomen region looking extremely discomfited) Steve: Meredith. (Meredith looks up at Steve and gets a look of pure shock on her face) Steve: You work here? Meredith: What are you doing here Steve? Steve: I'm having a little problem. Cristina (to Meredith): Steve, Steve? Steve: Actually I'm having a big problem. (He moves the jacket to the side. Cristina notices immediately as she's looking straight that way but Meredith doesn't as she's still looking up at Steve's face) Meredith: What? Cristina: Steve! Hi! Cristina. (Cristina turns her gaze back to his face. He gestures hi back. Cristina turns back to look at his lower body half) Steve: Ever since you and I... (Meredith looks at Cristina and then finally notices down below and does a double take) it won't go away. Meredith (horrified): Cristina! Cristina: What? It's right there looking at me. (Steve places the jacket in front of his body again) Cristina (laughs): There are so many things I could say right now. (she pats Meredith's shoulder) Champ. (SGH) (Meredith and Cristina are sneaking Steve down a hospital hallway. Steve is still holding the jacket in front of him) Steve: Do you think it's serious? It hurts like it's serious. Cristina: You realize this is completely insane. Meredith: Well we have to stash him somewhere till we figure out what's wrong with him. I can't have the whole hospital finding out. Cristina: I am not going down for this. (Bailey pokes her head around the corner a few feet away) It's not my fault you broke this guy's penis. Bailey (calls out): Broke his what? (They stop and then try to keep on walking) Uh hey! (they stop again and she walks up to them) Don't make me chase you down. I'm growing a person here. Cristina (looks pointedly at Meredith): I gotta check on some labs. (Meredith gives Cristina a death look and Cristina walks off. Bailey turns to Meredith for an explanation who stands there awkwardly) (Izzie is alone with Dorie in her hospital room. Izzie is looking at the heart readings for the quintuplets) Dorie: How's it look? Izzie: Not bad. Dorie: Not bad? Izzie: Not bad is pretty good when you have 5 babies in your uterus. (Dorie makes a slight sigh of pain. Izzie looks at her) Dorie: Ah. It's Kate. She kicks me so hard. It's like a belly burn every time. Izzie (raises her eyebrows but looking at Dorie's patient file): You've named them already? Dorie: I know you think I'm crazy. Or maybe just a little bit stupid? Izzie: Mrs. Russell, I'm sorry if I've done something to offend you. Dorie: The only thing that will offend me is if you pretend that you haven't been judging me since the minute we met. (Izzie is silent) We're gonna be spending a lot of time together so we may as well be honest, right? Izzie: If you had reduced the fetuses, even by two, the other three could've been carried longer, been more developed and born healthier. Dorie: And you're about the 16th doctor that's told me that. (Izzie is quiet. Dorie reaches out and grabs Izzie's arm. She places Izzie's hand on her stomach) Dorie: This one up here. This is Charlotte. She's the stubborn one. Lodged under my rib cage. Won't budge. (She moves Izzie hand to another part of her stomach) Dorie: Now over here, Lucy. She's a badass. If she gets kicked, she kicks back. (She moves Izzie's hand again. Izzie is smiling) Dorie: Emily. She has the hiccups almost everyday. (Again moves Izzie's hand) Dorie: And over here is Julie. She's pretty mellow. Every once in a while she just turns over. (Again moves Izzie's hand) Which brings us back to Kate. Izzie: Who gives you belly burn. Dorie (grinning): Every time she kicks. (Meredith is dragging Steve with her down a hall way to an exam room. Bailey is follows them in) Meredith: We were just bringing him up here because he's got ah this... problem you see. He's a, a friend. (Steve sits down and removes the jacket. Bailey looks at the problem and then back at Meredith. You don't actually ever see anything) Bailey: What did your friend take? Steve: Take? Bailey: Which erectile dysfunction drug? Meredith (to Steve): You took? Steve (to Meredith): I... absolutely not. I swear. It was all natural between us. Meredith: Shut up! Bailey: Your condition is called priapism usually brought on the overuse of EDs. Steve: I didn't take anything. Bailey: Well, we'll have to take your word for it because there's no test to see if you're lying. We'll have to ah look for other causes. There will be lots of labs, lots of procedures, painful procedures. (Steve looks mortified) Procedures that might make you wish you never had a penis. You sure you don't want to change your story? Steve: I swear I'm clean. Bailey: Alright. Grey, start his work up. Get some blood; get him some meperidine for his pain. As of now your friend is admitted. (Bailey leaves. Steve half smiles at Meredith) (Derek and Burke are at a nurse's station in the hospital. Addison comes up to them and hands them both a large file) Addison: Dorie Russell, she's giving birth to quints. Derek: Yes, Richard said we were on standby. Which is no problem really, cause it's not like I have a neurosurgery department to run or anything. Addison: Aww. Burke: Yes, apparently our departments are at her disposal. Addison: Do you have time to talk to them mom now? I want her to meet all the surgeons on the team. Derek: Yes. No problem. Burke: I'll come by after I get out of the OR. Addison: Thank you Dr. Burke. Burke (calls back): Sure! (He takes the chart and leaves. Derek stands up and he Addison start walking down the hallway. He starts looking over the file Addison has given him) Addison: I didn't hear you leave the hotel room. I missed you at breakfast. Derek: I had an early surgery. Addison: You sure that's all? Nothing's wrong? Derek: No, it's like I said I had an early surgery. Addison: Ok. (Izzie is helping Dorie back into her bed in her patient room) Dorie: Uh, I feel like a beached whale. (Addison and Derek walk into the room. Derek is still looking over the file) Addison: Dorie, this is Dr. Shepherd he's our head of neurosurgery. Derek: Hi. Dorie: Oh, another Dr. Shepherd. Addison: He's my husband actually. Dorie: Seriously? Derek (smiles): Mmm Hmm. Dorie: Wow. Look at you two. Everybody must hate you. Derek and Addison (together smiling): Oh you have no idea. Addison: Anyway Dorie, Dr. Shepherd wants to talk to you about Baby C. Dorie: Lucy. (Derek puts the file down) Derek: Yes. Lucy has a condition called hydrocephalus. It is a build up of cerebrospinal fluid on the brain. Dorie: Ok and that means? Derek: Excess fluid builds up and it puts pressure on the baby's brain which could result in brain damage. (Dorie looks overwhelmed) Derek: Here's the good news. We caught it early enough. We can take care of it very quickly. Dorie: How? Derek: I'm gonna install a shunt to drain the fluid. Barring any complications you're looking at a fully recovery. Dorie: No brain damage. Derek (shakes his head smiling): No brain damage. (Izzie smiles) Dorie: Ok, really ah couldn't you have led with that? (Izzie and Addison chuckle) Derek: Good point. (Dr. Burke is sitting at a nurse's station. Cristina walks up to him and holds the key in front of his face) Cristina: What the hell is this? Burke: It's a key. Cristina: Why? Burke (smiles): Why is it a key? Are we feeling existential this morning? Cristina: Well if a key turns in a lock and no one asked for the key or even wanted the key does it make a sound? (Burke grins) (Meredith walks up to them looking desperate and tugs Cristina's arm) Meredith: Hey. Cristina: Hi. (Cristina turns back to look at Burke) Burke: I'm gonna take this opportunity to be someplace else. (Burke walks off and Cristina scoffs at him) Meredith: Steve's labs came back clean. Cristina: So? Meredith: So, someone needs to induce vasoconstriction. Cristina: Oh nice try with the fancy word. He needs an enema and the answer is no. Meredith: I can't do it. Cristina: Oh come on you let a guy you pick up in a bar see you naked and you can't give him an enema. Meredith (desperate): Totally uncalled for. Cristina: Well I am keyed up and cranky. Meredith: I would do it for you! Cristina (looks like she wants to laugh): Oh really? You would give Burke an enema? Meredith: Yes! Cristina (disbelieving): Uh huh. Meredith: Maybe. No. But that's not the point. Cristina: Ah yeah ok. Here's how it goes. I do this for you and you do every enema I'm assigned to for an entire month. Meredith: Deal! Cristina: Wow you really don't wanna do this. (Robert is sitting in his patient room on his bed. He's surrounded by various files and many bottles of water. His assistant Doyle is sitting in the room as well also looking over files. Alex is there looking over Mr. Martin's chart) Robert: You heard from the seller's agent? Doyle: I've been calling all morning. (Derek walks in) Derek: Ah, Mr. Martin. It's good to see you on solid ground. I'm Dr. Shepherd. Robert: My assistant Doyle says I passed out and ht my head. (gestures to Alex) This guy says it's some kinda cyst. I want you to say when I can get out of here. Alex: A Rathke's Cleft Cyst. Robert: Whatever. Derek: It's a congenital tumor on your pituitary. Robert: It's treatable right? Derek: You're gonna need surgery. See I'm gonna use an endonasal approach. Robert: Endonasal? Derek: Yeah. Robert: You're going to pull out through my nose? (Derek nods. Mr. Martin turns to Doyle) Robert: Look him up. Check his credentials. (Doyle nods) Derek: It's a minimally invasive procedure so there won't be any scarring. Robert: Good. So, when? Derek: Once we fully sab your sodium levels. Alex: That means no more water. Robert: I'm thirsty! Alex: It's a side effect of the tumor. We'll keep you hydrated intravenously. Derek: Ok. (Alex and Derek leave. Doyle stands up and starts removing the water bottles) Robert: What the hell do you think you're doing? Doyle: Uh, I'm just following doctor's orders. (Robert is silent but looks off put) (Steve is in his own patient room now, dressed in gown and everything lying on a hospital bed. Cristina is in there as well preparing the gel from the enema) Steve: I cannot believe this is happening. Cristina: Try being me. Steve: I mean you meet someone in a bar, you have a few drinks, a few laughs. You make out in the car. Cristina: Roll over to your side. (Steve moves to roll over so his front is facing Cristina) Cristina: Other side. (He rolls over the other way, with his back to her) Cristina: Bring your knees up to your chest. Steve: You have a good time. Spend the night, wake up the next morning and... (Cristina shoves her fingers up his butt at this moment) Ok! Cristina: Uh huh. (Nurse Olivia is sitting at a computer typing away. Alex is standing near her at the station looking at patient's chart) Alex: So you're still not talking to me? Olivia: You gave me syphilis. And I am talking to you; I just don't have anything to say. (There's a few seconds of silence) How's George? Alex: O'Malley's a fetus. It's all whiny and afraid of the light. So you didn't tell him you were doing me, big deal. Minimal disclosure. It's my policy. (Olivia stands up upset and takes the patient chart off Alex and walks off. Izzie comes up behind Alex and walks up close to him) Izzie: Hey. I've been looking for you. Alex: Hey. Izzie: I'm on the quints case. Alex: Yeah I heard. Izzie: Yeah they're going to need multiple surgeries once they're delivered. I put you on the pager list (she smiles) so you're in too. Alex (looks uncomfortable): Yeah I kinda got my own cases to worry about. So... Izzie: Ok Alex, was it me? Because we seemed to actually be having a normal time. A good time. Alex: Yeah we were having a good time. Izzie: Well then was it me? Was it something I did or... Alex: It wasn't you. Ok. (he shrugs) I just... just didn't feel like doing it. I was tired, you know? Izzie (smiles): Well do you feel like doing it tonight? Alex (half nods but still looks uncomfortable): I'm on call, so... Izzie: Ok, well do you feel like doing it now? Alex (intrigued): What right now? Izzie: People have sex in this hospital all the time. (Alex looks dazed and Izzie starts walking away from him backwards grinning broadly) (George enters the stair well. He runs up a few stairs and stops in front of Meredith who is sitting on some stairs) George: You hear about the quints? Meredith: Yeah I heard. George: Yeah I gotta get in on that. Meredith: Yeah well that's Addison so I'm guessing I don't stand a chance. George: So how do you break a guy's penis? (Meredith gives him a look and George sits down beside her) Meredith: You know about Steve. Why does every guy I meet come with his own unique set of nightmarish humiliations? George: Um, maybe it's a matter of volume? Meredith (accusatory): Volume? What's that supposed to mean? George: Just, you know there's quality and there's quantity. Meredith (accusatory): So you think I'm sleeping with too many guys? You think I'm some kinda slut? George: I think you're taking some risks. I think you find yourself in a hole in some guy's basement, being ordered to put the lotion on the skin or else you'll get the hose again. Meredith (interrupts): Oh come on. George: And, excuse me I'm talking. So you're not over Derek. You want to be but you're not. So try and find some replacement, some temporary way to feel better and it's not working and it's not going to work because future meaningless one night stands and problematic penises is not what you want. You want better and you deserve better. (Meredith looks at George) And not every guy is a nightmare! (He gets up and leaves) (Alex is sitting on a bed in the on-call room shirtless and Izzie is standing with her scrub pants and just a bra on) Izzie: Is it just me or... tell me it's me. Alex: It's not you. Izzie: Well then is it a medical thing? Or, or a problem? Because guys have problems sometimes. (Izzie puts on a green sweater top) Alex: I don't have a problem. (He reaches out and takes her hand in his) Get back down here. We're going to do this until we do it. Izzie (smiles): Ok. (He pulls her onto the bed and starts removing her drawstrings to her scrub pants. Izzie laughs. All of a sudden her beeper goes off. She checks it and sighs) Izzie: Uh. 911. I'm sorry. (She sits up and kisses Alex on the cheek) Damn it. (She grabs her coat and her pager and leaves the room. Alex hits the bunk bed above him in frustration) (Addison is doing an ultrasound on Dorie in her patient room. A nurse is helping her. Izzie comes in still finishing up tying her hair) Addison: Where have you been? Izzie: I um, I, I the nurse was here. (The nurse gives Izzie a look) Addison: I've loaded her up with magnesium. Start monitoring her for toxicity. (Izzie nods) Dorie: Uh it's too soon. They can't come yet. (Tom enters the room) Tom: Mom says Graham started puking. (he notices the ultrasound and moves to Dorie's side) What is it? What's going on? Izzie: Dorie's having contractions. Addison: The babies' vitals signs are sab but your placenta is laying low. We're going to have to keep a close eye on that. We want to keep them in there as long as possible. Tom: How are you keeping them in there if she's already having contractions? Dorie: It's alright hun they can stop them. You're going to trendelenburg me, right? Addison: Why yes I am. You've done your reading Dorie. (She starts packing up the ultrasound equipment) Dorie: They did it with the triplets. Gravity, remember Tom? It worked fine then and it'll be fine now. Addison: Hang in there Tom, there's no time for second thoughts now. Dorie: Tom, we didn't think we would survive the first week with the boys and we did and we'll be the same with girls. We're ready. (Tom smiles) Addison: Well that's all we can do for now. (to Izzie) Dr. Stevens are you on call tonight? Izzie: Um, no. Addison: You are now. (Izzie nods) (Dr. Bailey lifts up the sheets of Steve's bed to get a look at his erection. She makes a face as if she can't believe it's still there and pulls down the sheet. Cristina and Meredith walk into the room) Bailey: Enema didn't work. Meredith: Enema didn't work? (to Cristina) Enema didn't work. Cristina: Oh. (She looks at the enema) Well it was an excellent enema. Bailey: So what's the next step? Cristina: A needle aspiration. (Dr. Bailey nods. A look of horror crosses Steve's face) Steve: A needle? My penis? Meredith: We have to drain the blood. (Meredith and Cristina start moving around to prepare. Bailey pulls out a tray with a huge needle on it. Steve sees this) Steve (shaking his head furiously, loud): No way! No! Forget it! Bailey: Then you're looking at impotence, penile infarction or gangrene. So if you want it to fall off... Steve (closes his eyes): No. No, I really don't want that. Bailey: Well then let's get to it. What goes up must come down. (Bailey leaves the room) Steve: I feel nauseous. Meredith: Just lie back, close your eyes and try to relax. Steve: If I could relax I wouldn't be here. (Alex is walking out of Mr. Martin's patient room. A nurse comes by and take's the patient chart off Alex. Doyle walks up to Alex and meets him at the doorway) Doyle: How is he? Alex: Surgery is scheduled for tomorrow, so... Doyle: Is there anything I could do? Alex: Don't let him drink any water, even if he begs. Is there any family we should contact? Doyle: No. Alex: Friends. Doyle: He doesn't really get along well with most people. Not big on the social skills. Alex: Sad guy. Doyle: Well he has me. 3 years as his assistant. I guess I'm his friend. Robert (calls out from his room): Doyle! (Doyle hurries into the room. Alex rolls his eyes and walks off) (Meredith and Cristina are performing the aspiration. Cristina is holding a very large needle and draining the blood slowly. Steve has a look of pain on his face) Cristina (to Meredith): What if I just gave him back the key? (Steve looks at Cristina and starts listening blatantly to their conversation) Meredith: He'll be hurt. Cristina: What if I don't use it? Meredith: Well then if you had no intention of using it then you shouldn't have taken it in the first place. Cristina: Oh come on. Fishing a key out of a coffee cup isn't like some binding legal contract. Steve: Your boyfriend gave you a key to his place? Cristina (gives Steve a look and then looks at Meredith): Why's he talking? Steve: I'm just saying the guy put himself out there. He's taken the next step. You can't not use it. Cristina: Do you think you might be not in the best position right now to be handing out relationship advice? Steve: Hey, he offered the key. You took the key. Just because I'm... (he stops talking when he looks at his penis) Oh look at that. Ah. Cristina: Congratulations. You're flaccid. Steve: Never thought I'd be so happy to hear that. (Dorie, Izzie and Tom are in Dorie's room. Addison, Burke and George walk in) Addison (soft voice): Dorie. Tom. (she walks up to them) Hey Dorie. Tom. This is Dr. Burke. He's the head of cardiac-thoracic surgery and Dr. O'Malley who will be assisting him. Dr. Burke wanted to talk to you about Emily's heart surgery. Tom: Emily needs heart surgery? Burke: Yes. Your daughter has a condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome. The surgery will be extensive and the odds are that... Dorie (interrupts): We don't believe in odds. (Izzie smiles) Burke: Good. Neither do I. But it is important that you both understand medically what's going on with your girls. Addison: After she's born there won't be much time to ask questions. So... Dorie: Ok. (to Burke) Listening. Tom: What's wrong with Emily's heart? Burke: The chambers on the left side are underdeveloped. In addition the mitral valve which connects these two chambers is abnormally narrow. (Izzie gets a sad look an her face) (Dr. Burke is on an empty elevator. Cristina gets on. The doors close so it's just them two. They both look like they want to say something but don't. Finally Burke cracks) Burke: It's a key. Cristina: Just a key? Burke: Just a key. Cristina: Well good. Good. Good. (There's a bit of a silence) Burke: Or, you can start thinking about moving in with me. (Cristina gets a look of absolute shock on her face. The elevator doors open up. She gets off without saying anything as others get on.) (Alex grabs Mr. Martin's chart from the nurse's station and heads towards Mr. Martin's room. Doyle bumps into him moving hurriedly from Mr. Martin's room looking upset) Alex: Don't mind me. (He walks into the room) Alex: What's up with Doyle? Robert: I had to fre him. Get me some water I'm drying up. Alex: Yeah well that's the tumor talking. The IV is keeping you hydrated. So why did you fre Doyle? He seemed like a good guy. Robert: I could see it in his eyes. He didn't respect me anymore. Alex: He thought he was your friend. Robert: Friend? Doyle? Alex: Oh right you don't have any friends. Robert: If I did I wouldn't let them see me like this. Illness is a sign of weakness. Once they see it they never look at you the same way again. I mean you're a hotshot doctor. I'm sure you don't let all the other hotshot doctors around here know anything about your problems. Alex (smirks): Well I'm a hotshot doctor. I don't have any problems. Robert: Probably don't have any friends either. (Alex loses the smirk) (Bailey lifts up Steve's sheets again to check his penis. Cristina peers over her shoulder to see as well) Bailey (to Cristina): Oh my lord. Ooh, Child. (Meredith walks back into the room) Meredith: Don't tell me. Cristina: The flag is flying once again. Steve: Hey, nothing I did. Bailey: Well we've tried everything. Must be neural. Meredith: Neural? Cristina (looks pointedly at Meredith): She already called for a consult. (A look of recognition dawns on Meredith's face) Meredith: A consult? (to Bailey horrified) You called neuro for a consult? Bailey: Hey it's not my fault you broke the boy's penis. (Derek walks in smiling broadly) Derek: Hello everybody. What's up? (Meredith looks sick) (Derek lifts up the sheets to check Steve's never ending erection) Derek: Hmm. (He puts the sheets down) So when did this problem begin? Steve: Well I had an erection last night and woke up with one this morning. (Meredith cringes at this. Cristina is standing next to Meredith trying not to laugh) Bailey: Uh Dr. Shepherd if you don't need me, the other Dr. Shepherd needs a consult on one of the quints. Derek (looking over Steve's chart): Yeah no we're fine. (Bailey leaves) Derek: So when did you last ejculte? (Meredith has a look of extreme discomfort on her face. Cristina just looks at her trying not to grin) Steve: I'm not sure. (Steve turns to Meredith) Meredith? (Meredith cringes noticeably. Cristina again tries not to laugh. Derek looks up and sees both of these looks.) Cristina (hint of laughter in her voice): Oh I'm, I'm gonna go with Dr. Bailey. (Cristina leaves the room quickly) Steve: Meredith, what time did we ah? (Meredith shakes her head as if to say this is not happening) You know... sort of Derek (catches on): Yes Meredith, what time did you two... (Meredith looks at him expressionless) (Addison is with Izzie in Dorie's room. Addison is doing another ultrasound on Dorie. Dr. Bailey and Cristina are there as well. She does a printout and hands a copy to Dr. Bailey who looks over it. Cristina peers over her shoulder) Addison: Here it is. Right there. The omphalocele. Bailey (to Cristina): Yeah, look at that. Dorie: That's the scariest word yet. Cristina: All, all it means is that ah some of the baby's internal organs are growing in a sac outside its body. Izzie (admonishing tone): Cristina! Dorie (starts laughing hysterically): All it means her organs are growing outside of her body? That's all it means? Izzie: It's gonna be okay. (Dorie gets teary-eyed) Bailey: I'll remove the sac membrane containing the organs and make a small incision in the baby's abdomen and put them back inside. Dorie: Julie. (She shakes her head) She's the quiet one. (Outside SGH) (SGH Locker room) (Cristina is getting dressed to go home. Burke walks in and meets her) Cristina: What makes you... What makes you think we can live together? You don't know anything about me. Burke: I know you prefer an 11 blade for your I and Ds. I know you prefer to say pickups instead of forceps. I know you like your coffee from the cart by the front entrance better than the coffee in the cafeteria. I know you. Cristina: Those are little things. Just details. Burke: I know you... You don't wanna move but I can't always be the one that takes the step. Any more steps and I'm walking away. (He leaves the locker room. Cristina is left looking agonized) (Olivia is knocking rapidly Mr. Martin's bathroom door that has been locked. Mr. Martin is in there and you can hear the sound of water running) Olivia: Mr. Martin? Mr. Martin. Mr. Martin, please. Mr. Martin please you heard what the doctor said! (Alex comes rushing in and tries to open the door) Robert: I don't need any doctors, I don't need anyone. Alex: Open the door Martin. Robert: I am an island, a beautiful island surrounded by water. Olivia: What do you wanna do? Alex: Shepherd gave me one job to do. Just keep this dude from drinking water. Olivia: Do you want me to page him? Alex: No I can handle this. Just go get some restraints and turn the water off to the floor. (Olivia runs out and Alex bangs on the door) Alex: Martin, open the door! (In Steve's room where Dr. Shepherd is reading from Steve's chart. Steve is lying in bed with Meredith standing at his bedside) Derek: Your CT shows a tumor on your lower spine which is pressing against your cavernous nerve which is causing the erection. (Derek looks at Meredith. Meredith looks down) Steve: A tumor. Right. A tumor. (to Meredith) So I should be scared, right? This is, this is the time for scared. (He reaches out and grabs Meredith's hand in his) Meredith (looking a little queasy): Um, it's going to be fine. (She tries to pull her hand away but Steve has a good grip) Um, Dr. Shepherd is, is gonna a schedule a surgery. (Derek notices the hand holding) Derek: Yes, I'll remove the tumor and everything should return to normal. Steve: Normal, normal? Derek: Well I have a urologist on his way up to talk to you. But yes (he looks at Meredith briefly) normal, normal. (Meredith just looks like this can't be happening) Steve: Can you call my mom? Her number is in my wallet. Tell her to come but don't tell her about the tumor. I don't want to freak her out when she has to get on a plane. Meredith: Sure, okay. Derek: How long have you two been seeing each other? Meredith (quick to answer): We're not. Seeing each other. Steve: We met last night at Joe's. (Meredith closes her eyes in horror) Derek: Joe's bar? (He half chuckles) Mmm hmm. I met a girl there once myself. (He looks at Meredith) A very long time ago. (He leaves the room. Meredith looks sick and gives a forced smile to Steve) (Mr. Martin's room, Alex is still trying to jam the door open. Olivia comes running back in) Olivia: The water's off. We'll just have to wait until he sobers up. Alex: His sodium levels will drop too low. (Alex starts slamming his body against the door to open it. He slams it open. Alex and Olivia move to go in and stop when they see Mr. Martin drinking water from the toilet bowl. He looks up and sees them. Alex and Olivia give each other glances. Mr. Martin starts to shove more water into his mouth. Alex and Olivia both move to Mr. Martin and drag him back to his bed) Robert: No! No! Leave me alone! Let me go back. I need the water! I need it! Alex: Martin, we're trying to help. Robert: I don't want your help. (Alex pins him down onto the bed as Olivia races round and places restraints on him) I don't want people to look at me. I'm pathetic. Stop looking at me! Stop looking at me! Alex: Give him 3% hypertonic solution. (Olivia nods) 500ccs per hour over the next 4 hours. We need to sab him. (Olivia leaves) Robert: You think you're such hot sht doctor. You're not. You're nothing. I'm gonna fre you too! Alex: Go ahead f*re me. (Burke's apartment) (Burke is doing pushups with an ab wheel thing in the living room. Cristina enters the apartment using her key. Burke stops when sees Cristina) Cristina: I used the key. Burke: That's a step. Cristina: So you really wanna know me? Burke: There's nothing that you could reveal about yourself that I wouldn't want to know. (Cristina's apartment) (Burke and Cristina walk in together. Cristina dumps her bag on the floor. Burke looks slightly off put at the place. He picks up her bag and places it on a chair. The place is the biggest pigsty I have ever seen. Clothes are all over the floor and furniture. Books, papers are strewn over the entire floor. Empty take away containers are on the table) Cristina: This is where I live. My mother decorated it. I don't do laundry. I buy new underwear. And see ah under the table, 6 months of magazines that I know I'll never read but I won't throw out. I don't wash dishes, vacuum or put the toilet paper on the holder. I hired a maid once. She ran away crying. Ah the only things in my fridge are water, vodka and diet soda and I don't care. But you do. Still think living together is a good idea? (Burke is silent and gives a quick smile and continues to ponder) (Seattle scenes) (SGH, outdoor cafeteria) (Meredith and Alex are both at the coffee cart picking up coffee. Izzie comes up to them and starts making herself a cup of tea) Izzie: Hey. Addison wants me to put you guys on notice. When the quints are born we're going to need everyone available. There's gonna be 5 babies, at least 3 surgeries, we're going to need all the hands we can get. Meredith (not really there): Ok. Alex (abrupt): Fine. Izzie (confused): So, I'll just page you guys when we need you? Meredith: Ok. Alex: Fine. (They both walk off to a table. Izzie looks annoyed and continues making her tea) Izzie: Ok then. (Meredith is sitting at a table and Alex is standing) Alex: I was studying. What's your excuse? Meredith: I was staring at the ceiling in abject horror. My one night stand is a neurosurgical case. Alex (grins nodding): Heard you broke his penis. Nice. Meredith: So I'm having a lot of sex. What's wrong with that? Alex: Nothing wrong with that at all. Meredith: It only gets problematic when you start to care. When you let your emotions get in the way. (Alex looks at Izzie) You know? Alex: Yeah, right. (He walks up slowly to Izzie but his pager beeps. Izzie notices him and Alex looks at his pager) Alex: Damn it. (Alex hurries off leaving Izzie looking pensive) Izzie (to person at coffee cart): I'll just take the tea. (Alex is walking fast into Mr. Martin's room. Olivia is in there checking on Mr. Martin who looks deathly ill) Alex: What is it? Why'd you page me? Olivia: He was acting all jittery and started slurring his words. Alex: Martin, can you hear me? (All of a sudden Mr. Martin starts seizing badly. His monitors start beeping rapidly. Derek walks in. Alex and Olivia try to keep Martin steady) Alex: 2 of atavan. (to Derek) He started seizing. Derek: How much sodium did you give him? Alex: 500ccs over 4 hours. Olivia: Actually doctor you ordered 500ccs per hour over 4 hours. Derek: It's too fast. His brain is swelling. (Derek checks Mr. Martin's eyes) Derek: Why did you do a follow up? I gave you one thing to do! Alex: He's gonna be okay, right? Derek: If he's permanently impaired I can't operate on him like this. (Alex looks ill at this) (Alex is sitting on the bottom bunk of the bunk bed in the on call room. He throws a ball against wall back and forth in frustration. Olivia walks into the room) Olivia: I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to get you in trouble but Dr. Shepherd needed to know. It doesn't mean you're not a good doctor. Alex: Lately I'm crap. (Olivia sits down on the bed next to Alex) Olivia: Yeah well things have been kinda crappy for me too lately. Alex: Also my fault. Olivia (shrugs): We both made mistakes. Alex: Let me ask you something. When we were together, it was good right? Olivia: You mean? (Alex nods. Olivia is silent a bit and then lets out a breath of air and smiles broadly) Yeah. Yeah. It was good. It was really good. (Alex smiles) It was pretty great. Alex: It was wasn't it? It was like easy, simple. (Olivia lets out a chuckle. They both look at each other for a moment and then start kissing passionately. They stop) Olivia: You better have a condom this time. (Alex grins and they continue kissing again) (Meredith and Derek are in the OR operating on Steve) Derek: Ah there it is. Over the S1 vertebrae. Meredith: So removing it should fix the problem? Derek: Hmm. Doesn't look like there's any nerve damage. There shouldn't be any long term effect. I'd wait a few weeks before I tested it out though. Meredith: Funny. You're a funny man. Derek: I just didn't know you two were dating. Meredith: Well you knew it would happen eventually. Derek: Eventually feels a lot different than actually. Meredith: Yeah, I guess it does. Derek (sighs): Yeah well it's surprisingly painful. Meredith: It gets better. Derek: Does it? Meredith: Well, I dunno but I'm determined to be optimistic. (Derek is walking down the mezzanine hallway by himself. Addison is signing a chart in front of the OR board in the hallway. She hands it off to a scrub nurse. Derek walks up to her) Derek: So you officially signed your contract. Congratulations. Addison: Time to move forward. Derek: Yeah it is. (Addison stares at him) Addison: We're ok, right? Derek: Yeah we're ok. (Addison's pager goes off. She reads it) Addison: It's Dorie. (She runs off) (Addison enters Dorie's room. Dorie is moaning in pain. She's having big contractions. Izzie is looking over Dorie's uterus read out) Addison: What's going on? Izzie: There's fetal distress. Dorie: My contractions are really hurting. Uh, I think my water broke. (Addison pulls the sheet to the side and sees a pool of blood stained on the sheets) Izzie: Her placenta's tearing. (Addison nods) Addison: Ok, Dorie we can't wait any longer the babies have to come out now! (She runs out of the room) Izzie: It's okay. We're going to take really good care of you. Dorie: Yeah. Izzie: Just keep breathing. (Dorie is still having painful contractions. Addison is back there and there are 2 other nurse's helping prepare to move Dorie to the OR) Addison: Ah Dorie, the OR is prepped and ready to go. Where's Tom? Dorie (let out a moan of pain): He's at home with the boys. Izzie: No, I called Tom, he's on his way. Addison: Izzie go and page everyone on Dorie's team. The list is posted at the nurse's station. (Izzie moves to leave but Dorie clutches her arm to stop her) Addison: Dorie, Dorie, you're fine. You're gonna be fine. Dorie: Nothing about this is fine! It's too early. They're too hurt! Izzie: Dorie, you've carried your girls this far, now it's our turn. You have to trust us to bring them into the world. Dorie: Tom's on his way? Izzie (nods): Tom's on his way. (Steve is lying in a hospital bed back in his room post-op. Meredith comes up to him) Steve: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Steve: I guess I'll just have to tell you I'm happy to see you. Meredith (smiles): So, Dr. Shepherd removed the tumor without any complications. Steve: So, I just wanna thank you for being there for me. I mean, normally you don't expect your one night stand to stick by you through a tumor. (Meredith smiles) Maybe when I get outta her we can... Meredith (interrupts): I don't think so. Steve: Sure about that? Meredith: Yeah. You know when I saw you at Joe's I was just... looking for a replacement. Looking for something to make me feel better. You deserve better than that. (Meredith's pager goes off. She hears another pager go off and turns around. George is standing in the doorway. They both smile at each other. Meredith turns around and her pager goes off again.) Meredith: Sorry, I gotta go. (Cristina's apartment) (Cristina and Burke are both lying asleep, naked under a sheet on the floor of Cristina's living room. They are both woken up by their beepers going off. They both sit up and read them) Cristina: The quints. (SGH Hallway) (Addison with other doctors are moving Dorie quickly down a hallway. Izzie is there following) Izzie: Everybody answered their pages but Dr. Karev. Addison: Where is he? We need everyone. Izzie: Uh I don't know. He was on call last night, he might be asleep. Addison: Go find him! (Izzie runs off) (Alex's beeper goes off. Izzie opens the door to the on call room and sees Alex lying on top of Olivia. Izzie looks at him stone-faced) Izzie: It's time for the quints. We need you. (Izzie walks away. Alex drops his head on the bed) (In the OR room, Dorie is lying on the table. Tom is standing near her head. The OR is filled with doctors getting ready for the babies surgery. Alex walks in and notices Izzie. Derek is there looking at Addison. Addison is operating on Dorie. She sees Derek smiling at her. Meredith is staring at Derek.) MVO: How do you know how much is too much? (Addison pulls out a baby and hands her to George) MVO: Too much, too soon. (Cristina moves to stand next to Addison. George takes the baby over to Dr. Burke who starts checking her immediately. Addison pulls out the baby with her organs at her side. She hands her to Cristina) MVO: Too much information. (Cristina takes the baby over quickly to Dr. Bailey who starts operating on her immediately. Meredith takes a baby from Addison. Alex moves to take her place. Meredith places her baby in an incubator) MVO: Too much fun. (Alex takes a baby from Addison. Izzie takes his place next to Addison.) MVO: Too much love. (Tom is stroking Dorie's head. Dorie is awake during the C-Section. Derek is checking on the baby Alex brought) MVO: Too much to ask. (Izzie takes the baby from Addison and over to another incubater. All the babies are in their own incubators and are being wheeled out individually. Dorie watches them go by) MVO: And when is it all just too much to bear? (Cristina and Dr. Bailey leave with their baby. Derek follows her with his baby. Izzie is the last of them to leave. She gives a reassuring glance to Dorie who looks upset)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x10 - Much Too Much"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x11: Owner of a Lonely Heart Original Airdate: 12/4/2005 Written by: Mark Wilding Directed by: Daniel Minahan (Seattle Scenes) (SGH Courtyard) MVO: Forty years ago, The Beatles asked the world a simple question. They wanted to know where all the lonely people came from. My latest theory is that a great many of the lonely people come from hospitals. More precisely the surgical wings of hospitals. (NICU Ward) (Izzie, George, Cristina & Meredith are all in a room either standing over or sitting in front their respective quints who are in incubators. The babies are very tiny) George: I have the best quint. Lucy, she just smiled at me. Izzie: She's nine hours old, George. George: I'm saying there are 5 babies here and clearly mine is the advanced one Meredith: Charlotte's smart. She's got wrinkles on her forehead, very serious. Izzie: Okay, A. This is not a competition and B. my quint kicks your quints' asses. Emily is strong, she won't let go of my finger. Cristina: Ah, hey! Julie has her organs on the outside of her body and she's still alive thank you. (Alex walks into the room) Alex: Kate's the best one. (Izzie doesn't turn around to face him) Izzie. Izzie: Leave. Alex: Can we please just talk? Izzie: You're too busy screwing nurses to talk. Just get out. Alex: Can someone make sure that Kate's vitals remain sab? Meredith: I will. (Alex leaves) Izzie: He's unbelievable! I am so glad I never slept with him which is his loss because I'm really good in bed. Mind blwing. Mind blowingly good in bed. Cristina: Are you trying to seduce us? Izzie (disdain in her voice): And then he sleeps with Olivia instead of me. Olivia. George: Hey, I slept with Olivia. Izzie: Yeah well then you both have bad taste. George: You know you can't say that you weren't warned. Alex has always been Alex. Meredith: You dodged a bllet, Iz, you're better off without him. Cristina: Why are you even surprised? Sleep with a snake, you get bit. Izzie (upset): Thanks, guys. For the support. (Dr. Bailey enters the room) Bailey: Who's on call tonight? Izzie: I am. Bailey: All right, the rest of you go home. Sleep. All 5 quints are still alive. It's a good day. MVO: As surgeons we ignore our own needs so we can meet our patients' needs. (Izzie watches as they all leave the room) (Meredith's house) (Meredith is lying in bed by herself awake) MVO: We ignore our friends and families so we can save other people's friends and families. (George is lying awake in bed by himself) MVO: Which means that at the end of the day all we really have is ourselves. (Quints room) (Izzie is resting her head in the babies room looking sad) MVO: And nothing in this world can make you feel more alone than that. (Burke's apartment) (Burke is sitting at the dining table reading a paper with breakfast prepared laid out before him. Cristina comes rushing in from the bedroom getting dressed) Burke: I made breakfast. Cristina: I don't, I don't have time for breakfast. I've gotta round before everyone else does if I want to get the good cases, you know that. (She puts on her coat and grabs her bag) Burke: Right. Well, coffee? (He holds up a mug of coffee for her to sit and have with him) (Cristina misunderstands and takes the cup from him, puts it into a flask to takeaway with her and puts the mug in the sink. Burke looks confused. Cristina leaves) Burke: Bye! (SGH Hallway) (George and Meredith are holding cups of takeaway coffee walking down the hallway) George: So I was thinking uh we could ah, I mean you could ah maybe ah go Joe's later, to talk by ourselves ... Meredith (interrupts teasing): Somewhere new? Somewhere to be ... (she stops and tells George to shh when she sees Addison and Derek arguing in front of them a few feet away) Addison: Cause you live in a glorified camper! Derek: 40 acres of some of the most beautiful land in Seattle! Addison: I did not give up a Central Park brownstone to come live in the forest! Derek: Addie, our house in the Hamptons had trees. You didn't mind those trees, did you? Addison: They were the Hamptons. Derek: Why are you pointing at me like that? Addison: Don't ... (Their argument trails off as Meredith and George stop walking behind them. Meredith turns back to George) Meredith: I'm sorry, what were you saying? (George looks at her and then back down the hall) George: Oh, nothing. (George and Meredith are entering the staff locker room. Cristina is standing there eating chips out of a bag. Izzie is sitting against the lockers fast asleep) Cristina: Oh, does anyone have any decent food? George: You really should eat breakfast. Cristina: God, you sound like Burke. You know sometimes I think we would be better off with dogs. Meredith: Preaching to the choir! I'm over men. George: Real nice. You know a dog is not a replacement for a human being. (Alex wanders past them) Alex (gestures to Izzie): You guys better wake her. If Bailey catches her sleeping, she's dad. Cristina: Izzie. (she kicks Izzie) Izzie. Izzie (angry): Damn it, what? Cristina (to George): Hell hath no fury like a girl whose non-boyfriend screws a nurse. Izzie: Bitch. Cristina (nods): I like you bitter and pissed off. You're almost like a normal person now. (Bailey, Izzie, Meredith & Alex are entering a patient's room. George is already in there. Patient name is Carl Murphy who has enormous swelling, pooling of blood at his nose and finger) Bailey: Okay, what do we got? George: Ah, Karl Murphy. 52. Multiple skin melanomas. Under went reconstructive surgery to his nose, right ear, as well as skin graft to the left index finger. Bailey: How's the capillary refill? George: Slow. About 4 seconds. Bailey: Ah what do you recommend to get that blood moving Dr. O'Malley? George: At this stage our best options are probably a bio-therapeutic agent. Karl: What, what is that? George: We put leeches on your face. Karl (smiles): Leeches? You don't say. Bailey: They secrete blood thinners to help break up pooled blood so it can help be evacuated. Sorta like a, a big drain. Look if this makes you uncomfortable ... Karl (interrupts): No, no, no. I've been a hiker for forty years. Almost forty years now and Mother Nature hasn't come up with anything yet that I haven't found reason to love. Bailey (smiles): You're a big outdoorsman? Karl: How do you think I got all these melanomas in the first place? (Bailey is with her group in an open ward. She pulls open the curtains and sees Derek standing over Mr. Martin unconscious taking some notes) Bailey: Oh Dr. Shepherd, you're in early if you'd like us to come back? Derek: No go ahead. Meredith: Robert Martin. 45. Collapsed and ht his head which caused a small subdural hemorrhage. Derek (he looks pointedly at Alex): That was the problem. Meredith: Mr. Martin was found to have a Rathke's Cleft Cyst on his pituitary and surgery was postponed when ... (she trails off) Alex: When I told a nurse ... Izzie (interrupts): Olivia. Alex: When I told a nurse to administer an incorrect dosage of hypertonic saline. Derek (angry): Essentially dehydrating Mr. Martin's brain. Alex: He still has chance he could wake up and be fine. (Derek gives him a look and starts moving to walk off. Alex stops him. The others listen to their convo quietly as they try to speak privately) Derek (scoffs): There is a chance. Alex: I know I screwed up, just put me back on this case please. Derek: There's not much of a case left here Dr. Karev. You saw to that. You want back on, be my guest. (They all leave except for Alex who stands close over Mr. Martin) (In the Quints' room Dorie and Tom are standing looking at their baby girls. Addison is checking one of them. Bailey and her interns come in, including Alex) Addison: Oh good here you are. Mom and Dad are anxious for an update. Dr. Yang? (Tom helps Dorie back into her wheelchair) Cristina: Ah we've done the initial surgery on Julie's omphalocele. A primary closure was attempted but there was pulmonary comprise, so we couldn't continue... Bailey (interrupts): Yang, how about we do this in plain English? Cristina: Oh, um we operated on Julie's external sac of organs and we pushed in as much of the bowel we could and we think we can push in the rest with a second operation. (Tom nods but Dorie sighs) Dorie: She has to have a second operation? Cristina: Yeah. (Dr. Bailey nudges her) Uh well not for a few days. Addison: Dr. O'Malley. George: We put in Lucy's brain shunt in yesterday and she's doing very well, but we just have to keep monitoring her to make sure the spinal fluid doesn't back up. (Addison nods) Addison: Stevens. Izzie: Dr. Burke used a catheter to open Emily's atrial septum last night. Today we're going to go in and try to reconstruct the left chamber of her heart. We're very hopeful. Addison: Dr. Grey. Meredith: Charlotte's lungs were a little more underdeveloped than the rest of the quints so we put a special mask on her to help her breathe and we're monitoring her closely. Addison : And that just leaves Kate. Alex: She seems to be pretty healthy. No major issues have been identified but we're going to keep her in the isolette till she makes it to 4 pounds. Tom: You hear that honey? Kate's doing really well. (Dorie looks despondent) Dorie: I'll be in my room. (She is wheeled out of the room by a nurse) Tom: Dr. Shepherd? Addison: It's alright Tom. She's just had 5 babies. Her hormones are all over the place. Just give her some time. She'll come around ... (Their conversation dies off as they make their way out of the room. Izzie looks on sad) (Bailey and her interns are walking up stairs in the hospital) Bailey: Grey, keep an eye on the mother of the quints. Make sure her hormones don't get the best of her. Izzie: But I can look after Dorie. Bailey: No you have ah Emily's heart surgery with Dr. Burke. Izzie: But I have a relationship with the mother. Bailey: Why are you arguing with me? Izzie: Because I don't understand why I'm being pushed off of the case! (Bailey stops walking and turns around to face Izzie) Bailey: Hey, Hey Stevens! I don't know what you're so angry about but I don't care. You better keep it to yourself. (the others watch quietly) On top of every other patient we have under our care, we've got quints to worry about, understood? Izzie (nods): Yeah. Bailey: Look these are preemie's people, they were supposed to have spent another 8 weeks in the womb. Just like interns, they're not ready for the real world. (her beeper goes) Oh, it's the pit. Yang, come with me. (Bailey heads back down the stairs with Cristina and the others head off in different directions) (Bailey and Cristina are standing outside an ambulance in front of the E.R part of the hospital. The paramedic Jill walks out to meet them) Jill: Constance Ferguson. 40. Inmate at Henderson. (she opens the back doors to ambulance) Swallowed a razor blade. Cristina: Attempted su1c1de? Bailey: Attempted field trip. Worked too. (Some ER doctors and Jill pull out a gurney with Constance � played by Rosanna Arquette, screaming with joy) Cristina (to Dr. Bailey): What do you mean field trip? Bailey: It says on her chart she's was in solitary. This is her way out. Cristina: Oh is she crazy? (They start wheeling Constance into the hospital) Jill (sarcastic): If you call a mrder crazy. Constance: Yeah, baby that's what I'm talking about! (Constance is lying in a hospital bed chained by handcuffs. Two policewomen are sitting outside the room. Bailey & Cristina are in the room with Constance) Bailey: Ms. Ferguson, are you experiencing any discomfort? Constance: You mean apart from these snazzy handcuffs you got pinching my wrists? Bailey (gives Cristina a look): Did you at least put tape on the blade? Constance: I'm not an idiot. Bailey: You swallowed a razor blade. (Constance raises her eyebrows at her) Bailey: So you're not going to tell me what it hurts? Constance: What and shorten my vacation? (to Cristina) Hey since you're just standing around why don't you get me some chocolate pudding? Make the blade go down smoother. (Bailey hands the chart over to Cristina) Bailey: Yang, get an x-ray. Make it portable. Prisoners so we have to minimize flight risk. Cristina: Wh, what, okay, okay but I'm supposed to check on Julie. I thought you said we were supposed to keep a close eye on the quints. Bailey: Julie is my quint too. I got that covered, you do this. Cristina: Are you sure you can't do it? Bailey: I can! I choose not to! (Dr. Bailey leaves the room) Constance: Come on baby. I'm not gonna hurt you. I only mrder three people and none of them were doctors. (George is entering Mr. Murphy's room. There's a jar of leeches on the table at the end of the bed. Nurse Olivia is already in there trying to put a leech on Mr. Murphy's nose) George: Olivia. Olivia: Dr. O'Malley. George: How are the leeches doing? Olivia: They're not. Still can't get them to bite. Carl: All this blood. Think it'd be a no-brainer for a leech. George: Sometimes they get a little anxious, bright lights (he switches off the bed side light) thunderstorms ... Olivia (drops the leech): Ooh! George: Nervous handlers. Olivia (to Mr. Murphy): I'm sorry. I should be better at this. (Mr. Murphy smiles as if to say its okay) I still get a little squeamish around leeches. George: Huh, that's not what I've heard. (Olivia gives George a look) Olivia: Dr. O'Malley can take over from here. (Olivia leaves the room and George moves to where she was standing to put on the leeches) Carl: Whoa, whoa, whoa, what was that all about? George: Nothing. (He picks up a leech) Okay. (He gets it to bite) There we are. He's in. (Izzie is standing by herself in an elevator looking stone-faced, arms crossed in front of her as the doors open. Olivia gets on the elevator and breathes out deeply to herself. The doors of the lift close) Olivia: I had no idea that you and Alex were a couple. It's just ... I was having a bad day and it was good to have someone. (The elevator dings past a floor) To talk to I mean. Not good to ... Alex really is good. (She nods) I mean he's good in the way he's a good person good. Not the other kind of good. (The elevator dings past another floor) You know good in bed, good. ... Which he is as I'm sure you know, but ... (The elevator dings open at a floor and Izzie gets off still stone faced and not saying anything) Olivia: Oh ok. Well bye. (Meredith is sitting at Charlotte's incubator checking on her in the quints' room. A nurse is there with her at Lucy's incubator. Derek walks in towards Lucy's incubator) Derek: Any temperature spikes? Nurse: No, no fever. Vitals are sab. Derek: Good, that's very good. Go ahead, after you. Thanks. Nurse: Thanks. (The nurse leaves and Derek checks Lucy's chart. George is comes to the door and stops himself from walking in when he sees Meredith in there with Derek and stays outside and watches) Meredith: So, you're giving up the trailer? Derek: I'm not giving up the trailer. Is Addison telling people that I'm giving up the trailer? Meredith: It's just funny, I just never would have pegged for that guy. Derek: What guy? Meredith: You know the marble bath, private pool, gated community guy. Derek: Don't peg me. I'm not peggable. Meredith (smiles): You're pegged. Deal with it. (All of sudden Charlotte's heart monitor starts beeping rapidly. The nurse comes rushing in and Meredith stands up quickly and Derek rushes over. George enters the room. The nurse opens up the incubator) Nurse: BP's low. She's tachycardic. Derek: Sats? Nurse: Dropping on high flow O2. (Meredith is checking Charlotte with a stethoscope while the nurse uses a manual respirator pump on Charlotte) Meredith: No breathing signs on the right side. Derek: Her lung has collapsed. George: Should I call the other Dr. Shepherd? Derek: No time. (to Meredith. He holds up a thin tube) Here stick this between her 2nd and 3rd rib. Do not go too deep. You're gonna hear a small gush of air. (Meredith takes the tube and does it. A small gush of air is released and the heart monitor stops beeping rapidly) Meredith: I heard it. (Derek sticks in his stethoscope from the other side to check Charlotte's breathing) Derek: Nice job. Meredith: Thank you. Derek: I'm not giving up the trailer. Meredith (smiles): Whatever you say, Dr. Shepherd. (George stands and just watches) (Dorie's patient room. Dorie is sitting on her bed with Tom standing near her. Meredith is there talking to them. Dorie has her back to Meredith) Tom: Her lung collapsed? Meredith: And I know it sounds scary but it's really not that uncommon in a preemie this size. So we've inserted a tube into Charlotte's chest and that will help her breathe until her lung can stay up on its own. (She looks at Dorie) Mrs. Russell? (Tom's phone rings and he checks it) She really is doing fine now. Tom: That's me, I gotta go. My mom can only handle the triplets for half a day. She's 74, so... Meredith: Mmm. Tom (to Dorie): I'll call you as soon as I get home, ok? (Dorie nods) I love you. (She smiles half heartedly as he kisses her forehead. Tom moves to leave the room but stops to talk to Meredith) Tom: Could you? Meredith: I'll keep an eye on her. Tom: Thank you. Meredith: Ok. (Tom leaves and Meredith walks over to stand in front of Dorie) Meredith: Dorie, this isn't your fault. You can't blame yourself for this. Dorie: I've got one baby who can barely breathe and one with half a heart. Two of the others are ... (she sighs while Meredith looks at her sadly) If I'd have listened to the doctors I could've had 3 healthy girls instead of 4 who might not live until tomorrow. It was my decision. Tom agreed with the doctors. So really Dr. Grey, who else should I blame? (Meredith is silent unsure how to respond) (Dr. Burke and Izzie are in the scrub room adjacent to the OR getting prepped for Emily's heart surgery) Izzie: First step in the Norwood is the cardio pulmonary bypass. Burke: With HLHS what else do you get besides hyperplasia of the ventricle? Izzie: Stenosis or atresia of the mitral and aortic valves. Burke: Why are using the RV-PA conduit instead of the modified Blalock-Taussig shunt? Izzie: It limits diastolic run off. Burke: Well you've done your homework. Izzie: I was on call last night. I study when I'm on call. Burke (chuckles): Well, no matter the books say, I guarantee you; you've never seen a heart this small. (Izzie notices Alex standing outside in the hallway) Izzie (mutters to herself): Bet you I have. (Bailey is checking on Julie in the quints' room) Bailey: How you doing you? You know I'm having a baby too. (she puts on a baby voice) Yes I am. A little boy. Maybe you can meet him someday. How does that sound? Does that sound good? (Cristina is standing the room quietly. She lets out a little hem hem and Bailey turns around to see her. Bailey closes the incubator and clears her throat talking normally now) Bailey: Pregnancy has not made me soft. I haven't got soft. I don't do soft. Cristina: Of course not. You were just talking to a patient. (She walks up to Bailey with some x-ray films) Bailey: What's this? Cristina: The inmate's x-rays. (Bailey takes the film to hold up and look at) Bailey: Uh! That foolish, foolish, woman! She swallowed 4 razor blades! Cristina: Mm-hmm. (Constance is sitting agitated in her room by herself. She notices nurse standing outside) Constance: Hey! Hey you! Hey nurse! (The nurse walks in) Nurse: Would you keep it down please? Constance: I'm starving. Nurse: You're NPO. No food allowed. (Constance looks at the television program playing in her room) Constance : Come on April baby don't go for him. He's such an idiot. (the nurse stares at her and she turns her gaze back at her) I didn't come here to starve to death. I want mint chocolate chip ice-cream! Mint, okay? Not rocky road! You better not get me that rocky road! It sucks! (Bailey and Cristina enter the room) Constance: Oh thank god, mama bear help me out here ok? I'm starving. Bailey: Don't give her anything. (The nurse leaves) Constance: See right there you're in official violation of the 8th amendment. Cristina: Uh you can't eat anything because you're about to undergo major surgery. Constance: What? (to Bailey) What's she talking about? Bailey: You're at risk for a perforated intestine and half a dozen kinds of infection. We need to operate right away. Constance (scoffs): I don't need an operation. I taped up the blade like I always do. It passes the next day. What's the big deal? Cristina: You swallowed 4 blades this time. That's the big deal. Constance (shrugs): I Thought it'd buy me an extra day. Does this operation have a nice long recovery time? (Bailey shakes her head less than impressed) Cristina: You realize this is major surgery? It's dangerous and you could die. (Constance is silent and just stares at her) Constance: Mint chocolate chip. I want at least a gallon once you ghouls are done splitting me open. (Bailey and Cristina leave) (Dorie and Meredith are outside the quints' room. A nurse and doctor are in there already. Meredith is helping put a gown on Dorie) Dorie: What exactly is it that we're doing? Meredith: We're visiting. We throw all this medical talk at you and outlined all these worse case scenarios which has probably scared you half to death. One thing we haven't done is actually given you a chance to be with your daughters. (She wheels Dorie into the room. The two people in the room leave) Dorie: How's that gonna help? If I've learned anything in these last few days is that I need to face reality. (Meredith wheels her next to an incubator) Meredith: Here's Kate. You can reach in and touch her if you like. Dorie: I would like to very much. (Dorie reaches in tentatively and strokes Kate's fingers. All of a sudden a heart monitor starts beeping rapidly. The nurse from earlier enters) Nurse: Dr. Grey, Charlotte's not breathing! (Meredith and the nurse rush over to Charlotte's incubator. The nurse opens the incubator and Meredith gets out her stethoscope to check Charlotte) Meredith: Page Addison Shepherd. She's in the OR (Dorie watches anxiously from her wheelchair) (Addison, Burke & Izzie are operating on Emily in the OR. Various other doctor's and scrub nurse's are there) Addison: We didn't see this on the echo. Burke: You can never get an exact measurement. Izzie: What? Burke (sighs): The baby's aorta is narrower than we thought. The diameter is only a millimeter. Just not getting enough blood flow. Addison: Damn. Burke (to Addison): I wanted you to see this before I started closing up. (Addison nods) Izzie: You're closing up? You didn't do anything. Addison: Dr. Stevens. Izzie: No! We barely started! Addison: Dr. Burke has done as much as he can do for now. So unless you know how to do a 1st stage Norwood, he's gonna close this baby's chest. (Addison's pager goes off. She looks at and leaves) (Izzie sighs shaking her head) Burke: You ok? Izzie: I'm fine. May I go? Burke: Yes. (Izzie moves away from the surgery) (Addison enters the quints' room hurriedly) Addison: What happened? Meredith: She had an apneic episode. She's still not breathing on her own. (Dorie looks startled at this.) Addison: Let's intubate and give her surfactant. Push 0.1 atropine and 3mg of ketamine. (They all start moving quickly to intubate Charlotte) Nurse: Meds are in. Addison : Tube. (They continue fixing the intubation) Okay, place the CO2 detector. Meredith: She was doing fine with the chest tube. Addison: That's the thing with RDS cases. (She gets her stethoscope to check the baby) We think the baby's getting better. They slip right back. Breath sounds equal. Good. (Meredith looks up suddenly) Meredith: Mrs. Russell. (She looks over to the spot where Mrs. Russell was before but there's only an empty wheelchair there) (In an OR Bailey and Cristina are operating on Constance. Bailey pulls out a razor blade. Bailey sighs) Cristina: Unbelievable. Who would do this to themselves? Bailey: The woman wasn't just in prison Yang. (She puts the blade in a dish held out by a scrub nurse) She was in solitary. Cristina: Well, she's seriously deranged. Bailey: You try spending a month, locked in a room with no windows, no one to talk to, 23 hours a day. (She pulls out another blade and discards it) See how deranged she is then. Cristina: Dr. Bailey, she's a mrder. Bailey: I didn't say she wasn't. (She pulls out another blade and counts them) 1, 2, 3. I said try to having no one to make your snarky comments to for a solid month. My guess is (she pulls out another blade) you'd swallow the entire razor. (George is entering Mr. Murphy's room) George: How are they treating you Mr. Murphy? Karl: Oh, I've done worse for company. George (checks the leech on Mr. Murphy's finger): Oh they're definitely filling up. Tissue is getting nice and pink. Karl: Did you make up with that cute little girlfriend of yours yet? George: Olivia is hardly my girlfriend. (He moves to check the leech on Mr. Murphy's ear but it falls off. He picks it up) Karl (looks at the giant leech in George's hand): Is she ok? George: She? Karl (he nods at the leech): Isabella. (George looks down dumbfounded) This one here on my finger, that's Darcy. And that little guy on my nose, named O'Malley. (He chuckles. George half smiles still a little creeped out) That's right. I named him after you. You're the one that got him to bite. George: Isabella's fine. She's just full. Karl: Oh. (George moves to dispose Isabella) Wait. What are you going to do with her? George: She's done her job. We don't really have any more use for her except as medical waste. Karl: No. I'd like to keep her. If I could. (George just stands there and stares at him) (George is rummaging through the Medical supply stands of the hospital in a hallway) George (to himself): Crazy nature man. You want to take a leech home as a pet. That's fine with me. (Olivia walks up to him) Olivia: You had no right to speak to me that way in front of a patient. George: Yeah, well you hurt my friend. Olivia: I had no idea Alex was seeing Izzie. That's not what you're upset about. George: You have no idea why I'm upset. Besides you know what I don't understand is why Alex? (he turns to face her) And why again? Olivia (nods and shrugs): People get lonely, George. (Meredith is on the phone at the nurse's station outside Dorie's room. She is watching Dorie from there) Meredith: Hi, Mr. Russell. It's Meredith Grey calling. I was wondering if there was any chance maybe you could bring your boys by to visit there mom. I think she could use the company. (Dorie looks despondent) Oh the flu. No definitely don't bring them. Thank you. You too. (Alex is sitting taking notes and looking through text books sitting in front of his quint, Kate in the quints' room. No one else is in there. Meredith walks in and then walks up to him) Meredith: You've been lying low. Alex: Well nobody's talking to me so it makes it kind of easy, right? Meredith (pulls up a chair and sits next to him): I'm talking to you. In short mono-syllabic sentences laced with disdain and contempt. Alex: So what according to girl rules, now you all have to hate me? Meredith: I don't hate you. If my mother hadn't gotten Alzheimer's I'd probably be you. Alex: Well, really? Meredith: Really. Before she got sick, I mean, I'd finished college but I was partying way too much and staying out way too late to keep a job. I was the one at family reunions everybody was embarrassed to talk about. Alex: So that's what you think of me? Meredith: Are you ok? Alex: I almost klled a guy yesterday. Meredith: Mr. Martin? Alex: So I'm just trying to find anything I can to help him. (Meredith grabs a textbook from him) Meredith: Ok, well what are we looking for? Alex: Ah anything on central pontine myelinolysis. (They start looking through the books. Just then Izzie walks in straight past them to check on her quint. They look up at her. She turns around slowly and gives Meredith a look as if to say how could you do this) Izzie (shakes her head): Unbelievable. (Izzie leaves the room) Meredith: Izzie. (Alex half chuckles at the situation of it all. Meredith sighs and gives Alex the book back. Alex sighs as well looking low. Meredith gets up to chase Izzie) Meredith: Izzie, come on. (Meredith is following Izzie down the hallway adjacent to the quints room) Izzie (angry): Come on, Come on? You're fraternizing with the enemy and you tell me to come on? Meredith: Alex and I are sort of friends. (Izzie stops walking and faces her) Izzie (angry): Since when? Since when are you and Alex friends? You tell me to cut my losses. That I'm better off without him and as soon as I turn my back ... (She turns around and starts walking again with Meredith following) Meredith: Izzie, you're making way too big a deal out of it. (She stops again and turns to face Meredith) Izzie (angry): Right of course, because I'm the unreasonable one. You know what Meredith do whatever you want. Sleep with the guy for all I care. (She turns around again, walking off) Meredith: Well obviously I'm not going to sleep with him Izzie. Izzie (angry): Why not you slept with everyone else? (Meredith stops walking after her instantly and gets a look on her face and turns around and heads back down the way she came) (Cristina is talking to Constance after the surgery) Cristina: Your surgery went smoothly. You'll have some abdominal pain for a day or two. Constance: Just a day or two? Cristina: We'll watch you until your bowels start moving again. The average is about 36 hours. Constance: 36? 4 razor blades and that's all you can give me? Come on sugar plum I thought we were having fun. (Cristina makes to leave the room at this) Constance: Don't' leave. (Cristina turns around) Cristina: What? Constance: Just maybe a little conversation? They got me here in all by myself. I thought I'd have a roommate. Somebody to talk to. Cristina: Ok. (She walks up to Constance's bed side) Why'd you kll 3 people? Constance (sarcastic): Start off with a little small talk why don't you? (Cristina makes to leave. Constance speaks quietly) I was high. On meth. ... And I had this boyfriend who had this robbery all planned out. He said that he would leave me if I didn't help him. Things got out of control. (She sighs) He was gonna leave me. (She nods) He was all I had. I would've been all alone. Cristina: Clearly being alone has its benefits. (Cristina shakes her head slightly and leaves. Constance just rests her head against the pillow sad) (George is smiling entering Mr. Murphy's room, he stops when he sees Olivia standing there. There are few giant leeches in little jars at the bed table with name tags on them. George walks up to the opposite side of the bed, facing Olivia. Mr. Murphy watches with interest) George: You paged me? Olivia: Another leech fell off and I can't get the new one to bite. I'm sorry they just really freak me out. George: I'm a surgeon Olivia. Olivia: You're an intern George. (George grabs the container with the leeches roughly and starts getting out one) Karl: You know what time it is? ... Time for you two kids to kiss and make up. That's what time it is. George: Mr. Murphy, we are not a couple. Karl: Oh you can't pull much over on me. And I say there's something between you two. Olivia: You're right Mr. Murphy. There was. George (looks up shocked): Olivia. This isn't the time and this really isn't the place. Olivia: He broke up with me for this girl who doesn't even know he's alive. George: She does so know I'm alive. Olivia: Listen to me George. You, Meredith Grey, never gonna happen. George (dazed): Wh, why, why, why would you even think it's Meredith? Olivia: Anyone who's playing the slightest bit of attention knows how you feel about Meredith! Except Meredith! Which should tell you something shouldn't it! (She puts down the patient file she was holding) Sorry Mr. Murphy. (She leaves the room quickly. George looks back at Mr. Murphy) George: She gave me syphilis. (Addison is sitting in chair in Richard's office facing Richard who's sitting at his desk) Addison: Remember what you did to me? When I was an intern? Richard: How could I forget? You didn't speak to me for almost a year. (Addison is silent looking away) But you learned. Addison: Yeah well I think I gotta do that to Izzie Stevens. Richard (half nods): Well she's smart, hard working. (he gives Addison a look) Gets a little too involved with her patients. A lot like you. Addison (stands up): I know. It took me a long time to recover from that Richard. Richard: But it made you a better surgeon Addison. (Addison nods) The question is, is she talented enough a surgeon to make the lesson worth it? Addison: She's the best I've seen in years. I was hoping that we could ... Richard (interrupts): You're not here to make friends Addison. You're here to make better surgeons. ( Addison nods looking down) Being a teacher can be a lonely business. (She nods again and walks out) (Izzie, George and Cristina are sitting at a table in the outdoor section of the cafeteria eating dinner) Izzie: I'm telling you Meredith was all over him! Cristina: Seriously? She was all over him? (She looks at George) What like a, mounting him? With all the babies watching? Seriously? (Izzie rolls her eyes) Izzie: Well she would've been if I hadn't interrupted. George: She was talking to him. Izzie: You don't talk to bastards that cheat on their girlfriends George! That's the rule! George: You weren't officially his girlfriend. Izzie: That's not the point. George: It is kinda the point. You don't see me getting all emotion over people I'm not dating. Izzie (raises her eyebrows and gives George a look): Really? You wanna go there? (There's a short silence) George (realization dawning): No. Izzie: I'm having a moment here! Don't mess with me! Cristina: You're not gonna have a nervous breakdown and kll yourself are you? Izzie: No. Cristina: So there's no chance you'll kll us? (She gestures to herself and George) (Izzie gets up and walks off in a huff) George: Oh that was wrong on so many levels. Cristina (chuckles): So good. George (smiles): Yeah, that was ... that was good. (Cristina starts laughing) Cristina: It was good. It was good. (Meredith is standing in the quints' room over Charlotte's incubator looking at an x-ray film) Meredith: Your lungs are not good. (she puts down the film) I know we got you out of there a little earlier than you would've wanted. We have to find something to help you. So if you have any ideas Charlotte... (She looks up and sees outside in the hallway Addison giving Dorie some news. Dorie breaks down crying holding her head in her hands) (Izzie is filling in a patient's chart at a nurse's station. Addison walks up to her dressed to go home) Addison: Dr. Stevens. Izzie: Ah Dr. Shepherd, is there something you need? Addison: Yes, Dr. Burke and I have reassessed. We think that there's a chance with the Norwood if Emily can make it through the next 10 hours. Would you look after her for the night? Izzie: I was on call last night. (Addison just looks at her) But I mean yeah, of course. Addison: Good, good. I've left a list of meds and ah you're familiar with pediatric life support? Izzie: Got myself certified as soon as I got in the program. Addison: Ok then. (She moves to walk off) Izzie: Is there anything else I should know to look out for her? Addison: No that should do it. Izzie: Uh should I notify Mrs. Russell about the... Addison (interrupts): No! I've done that. Dr. Stevens this baby is your responsibility. She better be alive when I get back in the morning. Izzie: Ok. (Addison walks away looking a bit unsure about the thing she is doing) (Derek is dressed to go home at the front entrance of the hospital walking to the entrance doors. Alex comes running after him with pages of notes) Alex: Dr. Shepherd I found these studies of the use aggressive plasmapheresis. I think these could work on Mr. Martin. Derek: Those are all isolated cases. Alex (sighs): Well, still the studies have resulted in approved clinical symptoms. Derek: No, no. No trial studies have been done. There's nothing you can do. Alex: Okay what about thyrotropin? Derek: No. No. Alex: European studies ... Derek (interrupts): Karev it's over! It's done. You screwed up. Mr. Martin's fried. You fried his brain. He wakes up; you put him in a wheelchair. He dies, you klled him. ... Deal with it. (He walks out of the hospital) (Izzie is in the quints room injecting a drug into Emily's IV. A nurse comes in with Emily's chart) Nurse: Dr. Stevens, baby's VO2 is still 40% after transfusion. Izzie (nods): How's her BP doing? Nurse: Still low. Last systolic was 52. Izzie: Okay I'm gonna push 30ccs of NS manually. (She injects the NS and the baby's BP starts rising on the heart monitor) Nurse: Nice start. Pressure's 65. (Izzie sighs and sits down in front of the incubator. The nurse leaves. Meredith walks in and stands in front of the incubator next to Izzie. She turns to talk to her) Meredith: Hey Iz. Izzie: Ok, really? You think I'm talking to you? Meredith: Well I just wanted to say I'm sorry. Izzie: What are you sorry for? (Meredith is silent and Izzie shakes her head) Izzie: When Derek broke up with you I never once said you're better off without him. It's not supportive, it's condescending. I was there. All I ever am is there for you guys and the one time I need you ... Just go away Meredith. (Meredith walks out) (Constance's room where Constance is choking. A nurse is already there. Cristina runs in) Nurse: She was fine. She just started seizing. (Cristina grabs a hold of Constance and looks down her throat) Cristina: She isn't seizing, she's choking. (She gets out a paddle stick and sticks it in Constance mouth to hold down her tongue and see what she's taken. She manages to pull out a piece of bloody glass. She looks down and around and sees a smashed lamp) Cristina: My god, she swallowed a light bulb. (Constance starts choking even worse. Cristina and the nurse try to stick a tube down her throat) (Constance is wearing a oxygen mask and her heart monitor is beeping rapidly. She is still choking) Nurse: We're losing her. Cristina: I can see that. Don't you think I can see that? (Cristina is checking her breathing with a stethoscope) Cristina: She needs an airway. (They pull down her bed and a nurse hands Cristina a silver instrument) Cristina: Ah she's clamped down. I can't intubate. (She calls out to the hall) We need some help in here! Nurse: You want me to get paralytics to relax the muscles? Cristina: Ah, no she'd be dad by then. (She grabs a manual respirator pump) Cristina: I need a scalpel for a crich. Nurse: You done one? Cristina: Of course not! Go! (The nurse leaves. Burke walks in and checks Constance with his stethoscope) Cristina: I was gonna do a crich. Burke: How long has she been unconscious? Cristina: She just went down. Burke (to another nurse): Prep O.R 2 for an emergency throacotomy. Nurse Right away. Burke: Cristina, she'll be okay. Come on, Come on, come on. (He gestures for them to follow and he leaves) (A nurse runs into the quints' room with Izzie still there sitting in a rocking chair) Nurse: She's coding. Izzie: Again. Ok uh, uh turn up the epi drip. (The nurse turns up the epi drip and Emily's BP rises again) Izzie: Ok. Ok. Ok. (She sits down at Emily's incubator and strokes her) (Meredith is entering Dorie's room. Dorie looks like she's packing) Meredith: Hey, Dorie. What are you doing? Dorie: I'm packing. Meredith: Dorie, you've just had major abdominal surgery. You're not in any shape ... Dorie (interrupts): I'm going home Dr. Grey. I need to go home. I can't be here. I can't watch them die. Meredith: They're not dying. They're trying to live. And you leaving them isn't going to help them. Dorie: I have 3 boys who need me. Meredith: Your daughters need you. Dorie: Don't you understand that I can't do it? I can't do it! They're too sick. They're too hurt. Meredith: Which is why they need their mother. Dorie: If Emily dies ... Meredith (interrupts): If Emily dies it will be horrible. But if Emily dies and you're not here ... Dorie: I can't even hold them. Meredith: But you can sit with them and talk to them and let them know they're not alone in this world. That's all they need. That's all that anybody ... (she trails off, a look of dawning comes across her face) Dorie: What? Meredith: I think I know how to help Charlotte. (She leaves the room with Dorie looking after her) (Meredith is in the quints' room disconnecting Kate from her incubator. Dorie is standing behind her in a pink gown looking over her shoulder. Izzie is also in there at Emily's incubator watching) Meredith: I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. Dorie: What are you doing? Meredith: It's called co-bedding. Hospitals sometimes do it with twins when one of them is sick. Dorie: And the other one gets better? Meredith: It helps. Dorie: How? Meredith (she removes Kate from the incubator): We don't really know. Sometimes babies get stressed in the ICUs from all the activity. (She moves Kate into Charlotte's incubator where Dorie is standing) Meredith: This way there's someone there to comfort them. To be there with them. (She re-connects Kate's tubes while Dorie looks over her two babies) (Karl's room. There are jars of several big leeches swimming around. None are on Mr. Murphy any more. George is there checking on him) George: That's excellent blood flow in all three places. You're healing very nicely. Karl: And I like my new nose. (George picks up the patient chart and starts writing in it) George (notices the wedding ring): Well I'm sure your wife will like it too. Not too sure about what she'll say about your new houseguests. Karl: Oh I'm gonna let these guys go in the lake on my favorite hiking trail. Saved my face, least I can do for 'em. And I don't have a wife. George: Oh, I'm sorry I thought your wedding ring. Karl: No, I'm divorced. Just never took it off. George: By the way, ah sorry you had to see that little scene earlier. Karl: Oh you mean talking with the girl who isn't your girlfriend about the girl who'd you like to be your girlfriend. George: Yeah. Did she, she shouldn't have said that stuff. Did she, she, is just very unprofessional. Karl: Yeah. (he puts a hand on George's shoulder. George immediately stops writing) But is it true? (George just looks at him) Do you like this Meredith person? George (discomfited): I don't think that's really any of your business. (Mr. Murphy gives him a look) She's ok. I like her ok. (Mr. Murphy just sits there) All right I love her. Karl (chuckles): Oh come on don't be embarrassed. I loved my wife. But sometimes no matter how much you love someone they just can't love you back in the same way. (He now places his hand over George's hand) Karl: Believe me son. Living with a woman who can't love you back, way lonelier than being alone. (Izzie is in the quints' room with the nurse. Emily is coding again) Nurse: What do you wanna do? Izzie: We can, we can put her on ECMO. Nurse: Baby this size, you're risking intercranial hemorrhage. Izzie: Uh, it she's already coded 3 times. You paged Dr. Shepherd? Nurse: She called to say you have to handle this for yourself. Izzie (frustrated): What? I, it's, I'm an intern! Nurse: Dr. Stevens. Izzie: Just give me a second. Nurse: You don't have a second. Izzie: Okay, um ECMO is too dangerous; we just have to keep her going on epi. Nurse: Too much epi and you'll stop her circulation. There's no point in keeping her heart rate if she doesn't have functioning arms or legs in the morning. Izzie (angry): Yeah, I know that! (She pauses more calm) I'm sorry. It's just, we just going to have keep pushing epi. It's our best option. We'll just have to fina middle ground. (Izzie takes over for the nurse with the manual respirator) Izzie (to Emily): You can do this. (Sunrise) (SGH Hallway) (Meredith is standing on the mezzanine balcony hallway looking through the large window/wall at the sunrise. Derek walks up and stands next to her) Meredith: I can't believe you would consider moving out of your trailer. The view alone. (Derek nods) Derek: See the mist rise off the lake. Meredith: Yeah. Derek: Yeah. (silence) I'm not moving. (Meredith nods) Meredith: You're still you? Derek: I'm still me. Meredith: Good. (George is watching them from a distance in the outdoor caf�) (Izzie is fast asleep in front of Emily's incubator, except Emily is no longer there. The nurse from last night is checking on the other babies. Izzie wakes up) Izzie: Where's Emily? Nurse: They took her away. Izzie: Where? Why didn't you wake me? Nurse: Dr. Shepherd told us not to. Izzie: What? (she huffs) Where's the baby? Nurse: Dr. Stevens, she died half an hour ago. (Izzie looks horrified) (Seattle Scenes) (SGH) (Izzie is standing watching Dorie holding one of her quints in her own room. Addison is there and sees Izzie. She walks out and pulls Izzie to follow her down the hall away from the room. They stop walking and Addison turns to face her. Izzie looks distraught) Addison: It wasn't your fault. Izzie: You put me in charge. I fell asleep. I klled that baby. Addison: No, you didn't. She was going to die anyway. She had a restricted atrial septum and virtually no aorta. As soon as Dr. Burke opened up her chest we knew she didn't have a chance. Izzie (shakes her head, upset): I don't get it. You order me to stay the night to take care of her. I worked my ass off doing CPR, pumping her full of every drug on the planet and, and ... I mean god do you have any idea how scared I was? It was all for nothing!?! Addison: Hardly. If the situation ever comes up again I know you'll be able to handle the pressure. Izzie (angry): You lied to me! Addison: You have to learn distances, Stevens. You'll be a better doctor for it. Izzie (disbelievingly): A better, a better doctor? (She shakes her head angrily at Addison and walks away. Addison looks unhappy after her and sighs) (Bailey is entering the quints' room. Meredith is in there already looking over Charlotte and Kate's incubator. There are various other nurses in there as well. Bailey walks up to Meredith) Bailey: Heard you worked a miracle last night. Meredith: She came around so fast I thought the equipment was malfunctioning. Her sats are completely sab. Bailey: She's gonna make it. (she looks at the two quints) Go home Grey. You've earned it. And Grey, way to go. (She leaves) Meredith (to the two quints): Did you hear that? Way to go. (Izzie is sitting despondently in the staff locker room dressed to go home. Her hair is all wet from a shower. George walks in with Cristina and Meredith close behind. Meredith is the only other dressed to go home. Cristina and George sit on either side of Izzie. Meredith stands in front of her.) Izzie: My baby died. George: We know. Izzie: She just ... died. (They're all silent) Meredith: I have an idea. (Izzie looks up at her and Meredith holds out her hand. Izzie takes it and they walk out) (Alex is sitting in a chair watching over Mr. Martin who's still unconscious. Derek walks by and sees Alex there. He looks at him thoughtful) Derek: First person I klled, I was a second year resident. James Hanson. You should go home Alex, there's nothing you can do here. Alex: Nobody should die alone. (Derek nods and leaves) MVO: 400 years ago another well known English guy had an opinion about being alone. John Donne. He thought we were never alone. (Cristina is standing in Constance's patient room at her bedside. Constance is hooked up to a lot more monitors. The 2 cops are standing inside at the door way) MVO: Of course it was fancier when he said it. Cristina: Don't, don't try and talk. Your windpipe was perforated. Dr. Burke repaired it and you should be fine. ( Constance reaches out to take Cristina's hand but Cristina backs away) Uh we'll keep you here at least 10 days for observation. Make sure there's no infection. (She moves to walk off but then turns back quickly) Maybe just to be on the safe side we'll make it 2 weeks. (Constance smiles thankfully at Cristina. Cristina smiles and leaves the room) MVO: No man is an island entire unto himself. (Meredith and Izzie are walking past a long fence in kinda of an industrial place. They stop suddenly and bend close to the fence) Meredith: Oh. That's him. Izzie (smiling): Yeah that's him. (Derek is sitting in an empty gallery overlooking an empty OR. He's writing notes in a patient chart. Addison walks in and sits next to him) Addison: I'm lonely, Derek. (He puts the chart away and they look at each other) MVO: Boil down that island talk and he just meant that all anyone needs is someone to step in. (In Burke's apartment, Dr. Burke is sitting eating breakfast. Cristina walks in and stands in front of him for a few seconds before deciding to sit down as well. She takes a slice of his toast and takes a bite of it. He looks at her and then smiles down into his plate) MVO: And let us know we're not alone. (Izzie and Meredith are in the townhouse living room holding up a blue soft toy playing keepings off with a dog. They're laughing and having a blast) Izzie: Get it. Good boy! Good boy Doc! Meredith: Ok! MVO: And who's to say that someone can't have 4 legs. Someone to play with or run around with. (George walks in to the nearby hallway dumbfounded by the presence of the dog. Izzie throws the blue bear into his hands. The dog runs barking at George who runs off. Izzie and Meredith laugh) (Kate & Charlotte are lying asleep in their incubator) MVO: Or just hang out.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x11 - Owner of a Lonely Heart"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x12: Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer Original Airdate: 12/11/2005 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Peter Horton (Meredith's house) (Meredith is coming home to the townhouse after walking their dog, Doc. It's pouring outside) MVO: It's an urban myth that su1c1de rates spike at the holidays. Turns out, they actually go down. (Izzie is decorating a massive Christmas tree in the living room. Very, very impressive) MVO: Experts think that people are less inclined to off themselves when surrounded by family. (Meredith is entering the house. Doc runs into the living room and Meredith stands in the hallway astounded by the level of decorating Izzie has taken. George comes in his pajama's looking half asleep and stands next to Meredith also taken aback by the decorations) George: Looks like Santa threw up in here. Meredith (nods): Just... go with it. We're being supportive. Izzie (finally notices them): Oh, hey! What do you think? (They both fake smile back) Did I go too overboard? Oh, I know, I know sometimes I can go a little overboard. (Meredith and George speak at the same time) George: No, we love it. Meredith: It's great. Izzie (big ass smile): Oh yay! I love Christmas. Meredith: We know. George (forced smile): Clearly. MVO: Ironically, that same family togetherness is thought to be the reason depression rates actually do spike at the holidays. (Izzie turns back to decorating the living room. Meredith and George give each other looks. Izzie turns around and gives the another big smile) MVO: Yeah, okay Izzie doesn't count. (Burke's apartment) (Burke is sitting at the kitchen bench, reading a newspaper and drinking coffee. Cristina comes rushing in dressed ready to go work and heads to grab coffee to go. She smiles at Burke and instantly stops when she sees a tiny little undecorated Christmas tree standing on the coffee table. She gives Burke a look. He turns and sees what she's giving him the look for) Burke: I ... thought you might like to help me decorate it tonight. Mark our first Christmas together. Cristina (pours coffee into her mug): I'm Jewish. (Burke takes a large swallow of his coffee) Burke: Seriously? Cristina: My Step-father. Saul Rubenstein. (She grabs her keys and heads to the door) Burke: Oh right. Right. (She leaves the apartment) Burke: Right. (He looks slightly off put and looks back at his Christmas tree) (SGH) (Bailey is looking quite pregnant walking down a hallway. She's taking a few deep breaths. Meredith, George, Izzie, Cristina and Alex tailing follow her a few feet behind her) George (to Meredith): Look at her belly. She's almost as wide as she is tall. (Izzie grins at this) Meredith: Are her ankles swollen? Is that why she's waddling? Izzie: What's gonna happen to us when she goes on leave? Cristina: Leave? She's going on leave? Meredith: What do you think happens when people push babies out of their vaginas? George (chuckles): Do you think we're gonna get a new resident? Cristina: What? Alex: Nah. Probably just let us all walk around unattended. See how much damage we can do. (They stop walking as Bailey has stopped at a nurse's station still a few feet away.) Izzie: Yeah, well you would know. (Izzie rounds to the front, suddenly smiling) Hey you guys, we should all get together and get Bailey a Christmas gift for the baby. Or we could um organize some sort of secret Santa thing. Cristina (looks less than impressed): Ok, listen Tiny Tim you can take --- (Meredith and George move quickly to block Cristina and interrupt her loudly) George: Sounds great. Meredith: Secret Santa sounds great Izzie. Izzie (smiles): Ok. (She turns around and starts heading off to Bailey. George and Meredith turn to face Cristina. Cristina has a 'what the hell' look on her face) Meredith: We're being supportive. (They are all walking down another hall but this time Meredith is the one lagging. Derek is close behind and calls out to her) Derek (solemn): Hey. (Meredith stops and waits for him) Meredith: Hey. You ok? You seem ... Derek: Yeah. (He sighs) You know ... Holidays. Meredith: Oh, yeah. I do know. Derek: Hmm. (She walks off) (Tim Epstein's patient room. He is a new patient. His wife is sitting on a chair nearby and his 3 young boisterous kids are playing around the room. Derek is in there and Bailey and her interns walk in) Meredith: Tim Epstein, 38. Fell off the roof of his house. Tim: I was stringing Hanumas lights and ah a shingle came loose. Izzie: Hanumas? Tim: Hanumas. Chrismakkuh. We ah go all out. Izzie (broad smile): Awesome. Mrs. Epstein: He fell 12 feet. Tim: Ah good news is my head broke my fall. (One of his daughters flings a rubber lizard which smacks Derek's face) Meredith: Ah there are no visible deformities but he's definitely having some focal left arm weakness. Mrs. Epstein: He'll probably be fine. He's always been a little hard-headed. (Mr. Epstein chuckles but quickly moans slightly in pain) Derek: Does your head hurt when you laugh? Tim: Is that a bad thing? Derek: Do you wanna follow my finger with your eyes, please? (He moves his finger from side to side in front of Mr. Epstein's face. Mr. Epstein's son, Jake jumps of his bed and jumps onto the adjacent one and sits up in front of Bailey) Jake: I know karate. Bailey: Mmm Hmm. (He whacks the jug sitting on the table which Izzie quickly removes) Ah. (Bailey moves quickly away to where Mrs. Epstein is sitting) Bailey: You know your husband might need a little ah quiet so there's a cafeteria right down the hall ... Tim (interrupts): No, no, no. Let them stay. Pain or no I don't want to miss out on the holidays with my kids. Derek: Who would like to take ah Mr. Epstein down for a CT? (Only Izzie puts her hand up very eagerly) Derek: Stevens it is. (Patient's room with a young woman named Nadia Shelton lying in bed. She is surrounded by various family members who are speaking loudly. Nadia looks exasperated but is quiet. George walks in with her chart. The chief walks also walks in up to her bed. And Bailey, Alex, Meredith and Cristina follow) George: Ah, Nadia Shelton. 41. Scheduled for excision of her gastric ulcer. (He hands the chart over to Richard) Nadia's mother: Lot of good it's done us. She's been scheduled for three days. Nadia: Mom. It's not his fault. Jimmy (her husband): Everyday, she gets rescheduled for some emergencies. Richard: Yeah well we're very, very sorry for the inconvenience. Nadia's Mother: Inconvenience? You watch your child spend 3 days in pain and then come and talk to me about inconvenience. Richard: We get a lot of trauma cases at the holidays. Your daughter's ulcer is serious but it's not critical. Ernie (Nadia's father, pointing to the tv that is on loud): Is that? Is that the news? Jimmy: Are you saying that my wife is not important? Is that what he's saying? Is that what I hear. (Everyone starts talking loudly and all at once) Richard: Alright! Uh, Dr. O'Malley prep Mrs. Shelton for her ulcer excision which will happen this morning! (He leaves) Nadia's Mother: Thank you! Ernie, Ernie! I am so happy! We're going to go the Needle! (Everybody leaves aside from George. Nadia is left looking a little unsure) (Bailey, Cristina, Meredith and Alex are walking down a hospital hallway) Bailey: Grey, Karev cover the pit. You can expect all sorts of holiday idiocy so that is my gift to you. Yang ... (Burke who walks down the hallway up to Bailey and the gng, interrupts) Burke: Dr. Bailey, UNOS just called. They have a donor heart for a patient of mine. (Cristina, Alex and Meredith jump at this) Cristina: I'm free. I'm totally free right. Alex: I can totally do this. Meredith: I'm free. Alex: I'm available. (Bailey gives Alex and Meredith scolding looks) Bailey: No you're not! You're covering the pit. (she turns to Cristina) Yang, it's yours. Cristina: Thank you. Bailey: Pit! (Alex and Meredith wander off down the hallway) Alex: Damn. Heart transplant. Would've liked to have seen that. Meredith: There's always tomorrow. Alex: Yeah, well maybe for you. Meredith: Meaning? Alex: I re-take the boards tomorrow. Pretty sure I'm gonna fail. Which makes today my last day here and I get to spend it doing stitches in the pit. (He walks into the male's toilets) (Burke and Cristina are walking down a hallway. Cristina is taking notes) Burke: So when does Hanukkah fall this year? (Cristina looks up surprised) Cristina: Uh, no idea. Burke: Oh. Well if there any more traditions you want me to be aware of ... Cristina (interrupts): Oh no Burke seriously, I haven't observed religious holidays since I was old enough to know better. (Burke looks off put by this and Cristina walks off) (Burke and Cristina are entering a patient's room. This is the heart transplant patient, a small young black boy named Justin. His mother is there with him) Burke: Good morning Justin. Marion. Marion: Morning. Justin: Hi Dr. Burke. Burke: I'm here with good news. Great news. Marion (smiles): You don't mean that ... Burke: UNOS called. We have a heart. (Marion smiles and chuckles happily) Burke: I'll operate this morning. Marion: You hear that baby? Santa Claus is bringing you a new heart for Christmas. Justin (looks annoyed and turns to Burke): Tell that fat ass to give it to someone else. I don't want it. (Burke and Marion look uncomfortable at this while Cristina just looks on amused) Marion: Sorry Dr. Burke, he's tired today. Justin: I'm tired everyday. I hate Christmas everyday. And I rather not have another stupid operation. Burke: Justin, I know surgery can be frightening but you need this heart. You've worn out your last one. Cristina: His last one? Burke: Justin had a heart transplant as a baby but his heart hasn't aged as well as he has. You understand that Justin? Your heart just can't keep up with you anymore. You need a new one. Justin: I don't care. I don't want it. Burke: Can you tell me why not? (Justin just looks down. Burke looks at Marion for answers but she is silent) (Bailey is walking down the OR hallway up to Richard who's standing in front of an OR board) Richard: Anxiety attcks, aneurysms and ulcers. Bailey: Huh. Must be December. (Patricia, Richard's assistant walks up to them) Patricia: Chief, Adele just called. Richard: Tell her I'm in ... Patricia (cuts off Richard): She knows you're not in surgery and she said to tell you, quote "We are going to our niece's school pageant this morning. You have known about it for months and after what you pulled on Thanksgiving" (Bailey grins madly) and then she started to use a great many words that I don't feel comfortable repeating. Richard: I have 7 surgeons on vacation. Patricia: And there was something about divorce. (Richard contemplates this grudgingly) Richard (to Bailey): You'll have to cover my ulcer excision. Bailey: Yes, sir. (Richard starts walking down the hallway with Patricia) Richard: Woman is unreasonable! When did watching a 6 year old dressed up like a wiseman ... (His voice trails off as he gets further away from Bailey who looks tiredly with her arms cradling her head at the O.R board) (Meredith and Alex are at the emergency doors outside leading to the pit. An ambulance officer pulls down a man lying on a gurney) Paramedic: Male. 44. Had a gastric by-pass. 3 weeks post-op. Reported extreme pain when we found him. Said something about fruitcake. (Meredith checks the patient) Meredith: Must've torn his abdomen wide open. (She turns back to Alex) You're going to have to fight me for this one. Alex: He's all yours. My parting gift. (He walks away despondent. Meredith just looks after him) (Derek and Addison are walking down a hallway. Addison is excitedly looking through a Christmas catalogue while Derek walks beside her looking less than enthused) Addison: Ok for your mom, I got a lamb's wool blanket, hand made in Edinburgh. It's soft, comfortable and says don't hate me for hurting your son except with fabric. Derek (tiredly): Addie, you know my mom loves you. Addison: No, she used to love me. I got a lot of ground to make up for with these gifts. (she holds the catalogue to Derek) So what do you think? Plain or plaid? Derek: Uh I dunno, whatever you know. Addison: But you love Christmas shopping. Derek: I'm just really not in the mood for it right now, ok? Addison: Ok well how about French food and Scottish catalogues tonight around 9? Derek: Uh, um I guess that depends what time I get out of here ... (Izzie who is scanning the hallway a few feet away and is obviously looking for someone calls out) Izzie: Dr. Shepherd! Derek: What? Izzie: I have Tim Epstein's CT scans back. Derek: Ah good. (He quickly walks away from Addison and over to Izzie eager to get away from the situation. Addison stops smiling and looks on disappointed) Derek: What do you think? Izzie: It's not great Derek: Oh no that's not great at all. (Nadia Shelton's room. Her annoying family is still there. George is in there) Jimmy (holds a catalogue up to Nadia): Honey-bunny what do you think of this scooter? George: Ah I need to take her blood pressure. (Josh, Nadia's son is playing his gameboy loudly while his Grandfather, Ernie yells at him. Mrs. Shelton also starts speaking loudly. Nadia just looks upset) George (tries to talk to Nadia): Any questions about the surgery? Jimmy: Apart from when you're actually going to do it. George: We're doing it now. Jimmy: Good. Nadia (to George quietly): I'm sorry. Jimmy: Don't apologize. George: Do you have any questions? Nadia: No. I've had 3 bleeding ulcers in the last 5 years. Jimmy: Yeah, I hope you read the chart. George: Yes. Jimmy: Good. (Alex is studying on a hospital bed in the abandoned hallway hangout) (Meredith enters the Scrubs room adjacent to an O.R. Bailey and George are in there preparing for Nadia's surgery) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, gastric perforation just came in. Bailey: Damn. (George has look that says this can't be happening) Uh, um alright. (She pats George) Take Mrs. Shelton back to her room. George: Seriously? Bailey: Do I look like I'm kidding? Tell her we'll get to her this afternoon. (George heads into the O.R annoyed) Grey call the E.R, tell them to send him up and then scrub in. (Meredith nods) Meredith: Ah, Alex Karev failed his boards and he's re-taking them tomorrow. He can't study for a practical by himself. If he fails again he's out. Bailey: Ok, go. (Meredith runs off. Bailey presses the intercom button and speaks into the O.R) Bailey: O'Malley. George: Yeah? Bailey: After you drop her off, get back here and scrub in. George: Alright. Bailey: Ok. (O.R where Justin is lying on a table ready for surgery. The anesthesiologist is trying to put the mask on Justin to put him to sleep) Anesthesiologist: Okay, Justin ... Justin: No, I told you I don't want the heart. Why are you doing this? (Cristina who is in there walks up) Cristina: Cause you need it. And until you're 18 your mother calls all the shts. Justin: My mother is a liar. You heard her. She said the heart came from Santa Claus. She shouldn't get to decide anything. Cristina: Yeah, well you could make a run for it but the heart you have won't get you very far. (Burke enters the OR) Burke: Are we ready? Anesthesiologist: Just about. Burke (to Justin): How bout you buddy? Are you ready? Justin: If I die in this surgery can you give this heart to some other kid? Burke: Not gonna happen Justin. Not on my watch. (The anesthesiologist puts the mask on Justin) Anesthesiologist: Here we go. (Justin falls to sleep) (Mr. Epstein's Room. His two young daughters, one named Leah are sitting on his bed with him; Mrs. Epstein & Jake are lying down on an empty bed next to them) Daughter: And it was only one day of oil. Tim: And then what happened? Leah: It lasted 8 whole days and nights! Daughter: And it was a miracle! Jake: I wanted to say that part! (Izzie and Derek knock and enter the room) Izzie: Mr. Epstein, I'm sorry to interrupt. You remember Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Um, should we talk more privately? Mrs. Epstein (shakes her head): Just tell us, is it bad? Derek: The fall has caused a subdural hematoma. Leah: I don't even know what that means. Derek: That means your dad ... his brain is bleeding. Leah (looks down upset): Great. Derek: Look, there are some risks to the surgery, it has to happen before the bleeding gets worse. Mrs. Epstein: What kind of risks? Derek: The bleed is uh in an area of the brain that controls the um speech and the motor control. Jake: We don't need operation, ok? Tim: You know, Jake I think we do. (Derek shakes his head to Izzie) Mrs. Epstein (to Jake): Hey honey, you know something else? Jake: What? Mrs. Epstein: We have a doctor named Shepherd. Tim: Shepherd. Is that a sign from God or what? (Derek looks a little weirded out by that comment. Izzie just smiles at him) (OR with Justin's surgery. Dr. Burke and Cristina are there performing the surgery. Burke has finished placing the transplant into Justin) Burke: Look at that. Beautiful fit. Now all we have to do is to figure out why he is so angry. Cristina: If I had that mother I'd be angry too. (A nurse passes a surgical tool to Burke) Actually I do have that mother. Burke: His mother is not the problem here. She loves him, she never leaves. Cristina: She also never listens. She doesn't know him. Burke: Justin's depressed. You heard him. He doesn't want to live. I just hope he changes his mind before it's too late. Cristina: Uh what do you mean too late? Burke: With all medical realities being equal, why does one patient live and another dies? I believe there's a mind-body-spirit connection. And if Justin really doesn't want this heart, his body will reject it. Cristina: Ok, let me get this straight. You don't just celebrate Christmas, you actually believe in Santa Claus? (The scrub nurses and interns watching all look amused at this and give each other looks) Burke: Dr. Yang, go and schedule a psychiatric consult for our patient. Cristina: We're, we're not done here. Burke: You are. (The scrub nurses and interns again give each other looks. Cristina sighs and moves away from the operating table) (Deserted hallway, hospital hangout. Meredith is lying on a bed, pretending to be a patient while Alex paces up and down hall walking by the bed) Meredith (in a creepy old woman's voice): I don't know. It hurts here and here and back here. (Alex stops walking in front of the bed) Alex: Any chance you got ht by a truck and forgot about it? (Meredith sits up and speaks normally) Meredith: You're judged on bedside manner Alex. I wouldn't be surprised that's why you failed the last time. Alex: Could you be any more patronizing? I didn't ask for your help. Meredith: Enough with the ego! You big baby! I gave up a surgery for this! (she lies back down and goes back to creepy old woman's voice) Now like I said, it hurts here, and here and back here. Oh and this morning I noticed my poop was a funny grayish color. (Alex looks less than amused) (Bailey and George are in the OR, operating on the gastric perforation guy) George: Wow, that's all you can save of his stomach. Bailey: Yup. Eating is what this man lives for. We should put him out of his misery. George: Paging, Dr. Karevian. (Everybody in the OR laughs except Bailey) Bailey: What did you just say? George: Just, it's a joke. Kevorkian, karevian. (Bailey just stares at him) Alex Karev. Bailey: I get the joke. I just don't think it's funny. (She holds up a scalpel) You see this O'Malley. I make one mistake with this scalpel and this man's dad. My husband, he makes mistakes at his job all the time. As far as I know he's never klled anyone but I have and you will and Alex did. He made a math mistake and a man died for it. Run that past your accountant. See how he'd feel if every mistake he made, someone ended up dad. You don't have to like Alex, you don't have to care about him, but you damn well have to be on his side. (George just stands there, looking sufficiently told-off) (Derek is in the OR with Izzie, just starting to operate on Mr. Epstein) Izzie: What a great family. Hanumas. Chrismakkuh. And how cute are those kids? Derek (sarcastic): Really Dr. Stevens. Chrismakkuh. Izzie: I think it's sweet. Derek: Do you happen to know what time of year neurosurgeon's are the busiest Dr. Stevens? Izzie: No, there's a time of year? Derek: Well there's no hard or fast rule but brain injuries tend to pile up around the holidays. Like our friend here. Folks fall of their roofs while they string up lights or they go skating for the first time in a decade, break their heads open. (Izzie looks slightly ill at this and looks worse by the time he stops talking) And every year people drive through blizzards to get to parties where the kiss germ-infected strangers under poisonous mistletoe and then they get so drunk they smash their heads against their windshield on their way home. Like I said, there's no hard or fast rule. (Deserted /closed down hallway. Alex is pushing against Meredith's stomach) Alex: Does this hurt, Mrs. Grey? Meredith (old voice): Yes Doctor. Alex (reaches under her back): How bout here, does it hurt here? Meredith: Yes it does. (Cristina walks in to the hallway and stops when she sees the previous scenario before her. Her mouth hangs open in shock) Cristina: Okay, seriously if you're that lonely there are excellent vibrators. I can give you a catalogue. Meredith (normal voice): He failed his medical boards. I'm helping him study. Cristina (walks up to them): You failed your practical? Alex: Glad to know you can keep a secret, Grey. Meredith: I kept your secret; it didn't do you any good. He needs our help. Cristina: Oh, you're not serious. Meredith: What if it were you? Cristina: It wouldn't be. Meredith: But what if it were? Cristina: It wouldn't be. (Meredith gets paged. She gets up off the bed) Meredith: I have to go. Be a patient. Do it for me. Cristina: Fine, but when Tiny Tim goes all Norman Bates on us, I'm blaming you. (Meredith walks to the end of the hall and calls out) Meredith: Diagnosis? Alex: Gall-stones. Meredith (thumbs up): Yes! (She leaves. Cristina sits on the bed Meredith just vacated and sighs) Cristina: I'm a 55 year old man. I'm nauseous and I can't stop throwing up. Alex: Forget it alright, I didn't ask for anybody's help. Cristina: Okay Evil Spawn, you can nurse your pride; key word being nurse or you can pass your test and be a doctor. Up to you. Alex (sighs and stands in front of her): Any abdominal pain? Cristina: Yes from my giant fat belly all the way to my back. Oh and I'm drunk. Hiccup, hiccup. (Meredith is entering the scrub wash room with a chart. George is already in there as is Bailey who's sitting down and eating a chocolate bar) Meredith (hands Bailey the chart): I got another one for you. Bailey: He tried to gift wrap a 70-inch TV for his wife? George: Hernia? Meredith: Strangulated. Pretty ugly. Bailey: And you just know the wife just hates TV. Grey is that other project covered. Meredith: I think so. Bailey: Then scrub in. O'Malley, go tell Nadia Shelton she's off the schedule until tomorrow. (George looks upset at this) (Nadia Shelton's room where her boisterous, noisy family are still being annoying and creating a huge racket) Jimmy (shocked): Till tomorrow? Nadia: Another day is not gonna kll me Jimmy. George: I promise tomorrow for sure. Nadia's Mother (outraged): Today was for sure! Ernie: What's he saying? Nadia's Mother (yells): He's saying they can't operate until tomorrow! Ernie (yells): Outrageous! (There's all this loud talk and yelling. George looks annoyed) George (speaks to Josh playing the really loud gameboy): Could you please turn that down your mother needs to rest. Josh: Who are you? My Dad? George: Sir, could you please tell your son--- Jimmy: Don't talk to me about my son. Who the hell do you think you are? George: Sorry. I'm really sorry. (Mrs. Shelton and Mr. Shelton are still yelling loudly) I just think your wife should rest ... (Nadia looks grateful at the attempt but the noise of the family is just too loud) Nadia's Mother: You people, you have ruined everything. George: I am very sorry. (George just leaves the room) (Deserted hallway where Alex is now what it looks like feeling up Cristina. Or at the very least groping her boob. Cristina backs up) Cristina: Okay the way you're grabbing me now, that's asault. (She grabs his hand, flattens his palm and uses the tips of his fingers to press against her chest) Cristina: This is an exam. Pat, pat, pat. (George comes into the hallway and looks dumbfounded) George: What? What the hell? (loud) Does Izzie know? Does Burke know about this? Cristina: Un-bunch your panties, George. We're helping Alex study. (to Alex) Do it. George: I can't hear you when his hand is on your boob. Cristina: Take your hand off my boob, Alex. (Alex removes his hand) George: Thank you. (he walks up to them) Study for what? Alex: Shut it, Yang. Cristina: Alex failed his boards. George: Seriously? Alex: I failed one part of one board. That's it. George: Still...that's pretty embarrassing. Cristina (She gets paged): Eh, he's all yours Georgie! Do your worst. (She gets up and leaves) George: You're not giving me a rectal. Do not ask me to cough. (Cristina is walking up a nurse's station outside Justin's room where Dr. Burke is standing after Justin's surgery looking over a patient chart) Cristina: You paged me? (She peers into Justin's room) Burke: I didn't see a psych consult scheduled here. Cristina: Ah I couldn't get one. I tried to but they told me to come back in January. Burke: You disrespected me. You mocked me in my OR. That can't happen. Cristina: I wa ... It won't happen again. Burke: You equated my spirituality with a belief in Santa Claus. Cristina: Burke, science is the one thing. You know it's the one thing we have in common. I'm an intern and you're not. I'm a slob and you're not. I say I want to keep our relationship private and you go and tell the Chief of Surgery and you asked me to move in with you and now you're religious. Burke: Spiritual. There's a difference. Cristina (shakes her head): Well not to me. ... I don't know what we're doing. Burke (looks angry): Well right now we're working. Page me if he spikes a fever. (Cristina shakes her head in dismay that Burke is ignoring what she's saying) Tell Mrs. Davidson to hire a private therapist or priest, anyone Justin will talk to. (He slides the chart over to her and walks away) (Izzie is walking down the hallway, where she finds Mrs. Epstein with her three kids sitting on some chairs) Izzie: Mrs. Epstein? Mrs. Epstein: Oh (she stands up and walks to Izzie) How is he? Izzie: He's gonna be fine. He's still a little groggy. (Jake interrupts) Jake: My Dad wants to see me now, ok? Izzie (smiles): Ok. (She starts walking down the way she came and the family follow to Mr. Epstein's room. They stop at the doorway) Mrs. Epstein: It's ok guys. Daddy's ok. (One of the daughter's runs into the room and jumps onto the bed) Daughter: Daddy, daddy. I could kiss it better Daddy. Tim (to his wife): Jillian I have a headache. (Mrs. Epstein nods) Leah: I'll sing for you Daddy. Tim: No. Leah (sings): Dashing through the snow ... Tim: No! Leah (continues): ... on a one-horse open sleigh ... Tim: Leah. Damn it Leah shut up! (Leah stops and immediately starts crying) I can't stand that insipid song! Mrs. Epstein: Tim! Tim: Just get out! (Derek walks in) Tim (yelling): Get out! Get the hell out of here, all of you! Jake (upset): You stupid Shepherd! You broke my Dad's brain! (Izzie and Derek are walking down a hallway) Izzie: How did that happen? I mean his personality ... you didn't go anywhere near the frontal lobe. Derek: Well the CT might've missed something. Or a personality change could be a reaction from the anesthesia wearing off. Could be the pain. Izzie: He was in pain before the surgery. (Derek heads into a stair well) Derek: Watch him for a couple of hours, if he doesn't improve get a new CT. (Derek starts walking down the stairs) Izzie (gets a look on her face): Ok. (Derek catches the look and walks back quickly) Derek: Dr. Stevens? Izzie: You had his brain open. Literally open. He was laying there unconscious and vulnerable and ... Derek: You think I poisoned him with my anti-holiday venom. Izzie: Well you're the one that's always saying that there's a lot about the brain that we don't know. How do you know that your words didn't speak to him on some unconscious level? I mean he trusted you to be his ... Shepherd. (Izzie seems surprised at her own choice of words) Derek: Dr. Stevens, you should be a little embarrassed. Izzie (nods): I am. Derek: Good. (He walks down the stairs and Izzie leaves back the way they came) (Justin's room, where his mother is decorating his room with Christmas decorations and a Christmas tree. Cristina walks in) Cristina: Oh this is the CCU. There are no trees allowed in the CCU. Mariann: I know, it's never really been enforced, so ... (Cristina looks off-put at this) How's he doing? (Cristina walks up to Justin's bed) Cristina: Ah surgery went smoothly but it's too soon to tell. Mariann: He's really a good boy you know. You just met him at a difficult time. He's been down. I don't know why. (Cristina checks Justin's heart with a stethoscope) But Father Michael will be able to talk to him. Cristina: No offense but uh your son doesn't seem to be a fan of the holidays. He doesn't believe in Santa. Mariann: Yes well a mother's job is to protect her child's innocence. And this Christmas could be his last time, so. Justin: That's what you said last year. And the year before that. (Justin gives Cristina a look) Mariann: Oh my baby, you're awake. You look great. My big, strong boy. Santa brought you back to me. (Cristina looks thoroughly annoyed now and unplugs the Christmas tree lights and starts wheeling out the tree of the room) Mariann: What are you doing? Cristina: Sorry. CCU regulations. (Operating room with Bailey and Meredith, operating on the strangulated guy) Meredith: Are we using mesh? Bailey: Yes, the conjoined tendon is ... (She pulls away suddenly from the surgery and puts the surgical tools down and moans) Mmm Hmmm Mmm. Meredith: Dr. Bailey? Bailey (raises her hand to silence Meredith): Just wouldn't want to throw up in the body cavity. Nurse: Dr. Bailey, are you all right? Meredith: Do you need ...? Bailey: I just need a minute Grey. Oh when you operate the rest of the world goes away. Hunger, thirst, pain. You don't feel it in the OR. But it's not that way when you're sharing you're body with another person. Ok. (She turns back to the surgery and starts again) Meredith: Are you sure you don't want me to find someone to take over for you? Bailey: What I want you to find me is a strawberry milkshake. Extra thick. (The operating staff look amused at this) Meredith: Seriously? Bailey (nods): Yeah, nausea. Comes with the hunger, Grey. Go. (Meredith leaves the operating table) (George is sitting on the hospital bed in the abandoned hallway with Alex sitting next to him, 'examining' him. George is talking in the most horrible ghetto voice ever. It's hilarious) George: My throat, it's like wicked sore yo. (Gestures to his face) Plus I've got all these like sick breakout's, right. Alex: Dude seriously. (George instantly stops smiling, stands up and starts walking away) Alex: Alright, alright, sit down, sit down. (George moves back and sits down. Alex stands up) Alex: Open up your mouth. I'd like to inspect your tonsils. (George opens his mouth and sticks out his tongue. Alex gets a tongue presser and a flashlight to examine his throat. Izzie comes into the hallway and looks stunned at what she's seeing) Izzie: What's wrong with you are you sick? (Alex stops examining him) George: Fake sick. (Izzie just looks confused) Alex: I failed my practical board exam. O'Malley's helping me study. Izzie: You failed your ... (to George) You're helping him? George: Just to study. Nothing else. Alex: Izzie. Izzie: No, you don't get to say my name (she points her finger at George angry) and you are unbelievable! (Izzie storms off. George gets up and starts chasing after her but turns back to Alex) George: Ah! I was doing mono, the whole fever and glands thing. The acne was just part of the whole teenager thing. (George sprints off after Izzie) (Izzie is walking up the stairs leading away from the hangout and starts walking down a hallway. George is close behind her.) George: Izzie would you wait. Izzie (yells): I say I like the guy and you can't stop hating him. And as soon... George (interrupts): Izzie. Izzie (yells): ...as he screws me over... George: Izzie! Izzie: You're his new best friend! George: He failed his boards. This is important. Izzie: He cheated on me. Meredith (walks up behind them with the milkshake for Bailey): Busted? George: Yeah. I'm busted. Meredith: His exam is tomorrow. Izzie (even more angry): You're in on this too? He cheated on me! God! Cristina (walking down hall opposite from them with a Christmas tree): Oh, I told you she'd find out. Izzie: Oh, of course you're in on it. George: She let him touch her boobs! (Cristina hits George with the Christmas tree) Izzie: He cheated on me with George's skanky syph nurse! George: That is just plain rude! Meredith: We know! He cheated on you! That's why we let you turn the living room into Santa's freaking Village. Izzie: What? Meredith: We're not big on holidays you know that. But we're trying to be supportive because you are having a hard time. But right now, Alex, he's having a harder time. Izzie: Why does everyone care what kinda time Alex is having? Meredith: Because he's dirty Uncle Sal. (Both George and Cristina turn around and give Meredith weird looks) George: Sorry? Cristina: Huh? Meredith: He's dirty Uncle Sal. The one who embarrasses everyone at family reunions and who can't be left alone with the teenage girls but you invite him to the picnic anyway. Cristina: Sorry. What? George: I'm still lost. Meredith: I have a mother who doesn't recognize me. As far as family goes, this hospital, you guys are it. So, I know you're pissed at Alex but maybe you could try and help him anyway. Sorta like in the spirit of this holiday you keep shoving down everybody's throats. (Izzie shakes her head and walks off. Meredith also walks off in the opposite direction) Cristina: You. George: What? Cristina: Boob! (Cristina walks off and George's pager goes off) (George rushes into Nadia Shelton's room, where Nadia is sitting up vomiting blood into a bucket. Her family are going nuts) Jimmy (yelling): Somebody do something! Doctor get in here now! (Everybody is talking and yelling at once. George rushes up to Nadia) George (to Nadia): Nadia we're taking you to surgery. (Nadia nods and George turns to the nurse holding the bucket) George: Prep her now! (The nurse nods and George rushes out of the room) (Meredith is walking down the hallway with the strawberry milkshake. She enters the scrub room where Bailey is sitting waiting. Meredith hands her the shake) Bailey: It's about time. Meredith: Sorry, I got side-tracked. (Bailey takes off the top of the milkshake and just drinks it directly from the cup. George rushes into the room) George: Nadia Shelton's ulcer perforated. She's vomiting blood by the pint. Bailey: Is the Chief back? Meredith: I didn't see him. George (shakes his head): No. Bailey (frustrated): All right uh both of you scrub in. I'm gonna need all the help I can get. (She starts drinking massive gulps of her milkshake not stopping as Meredith and George start scrubbing up) (Derek and Izzie are in the CT viewing room looking at the images on the screen as Mr. Epstein lies in the CT machine) Derek: Well, there it is. Left side of his frontal lobe. (to Izzie) Now why didn't we see that before? Izzie: Intra-cerebral bleeds can have a delayed presentation. Derek: Right. (to CT tech) You wanna get him out of there? (CT tech nods and heads out of the viewing room) Derek: Ah just prep an OR. I'm gonna talk to his wife. (Izzie nods and heads out as well. Addison comes and stands at the doorway.) Addison: Dr. Stevens. (Izzie ignores her and continues out the door) Addison (calls out): Nice talking to you. (to Derek) Think she'll ever talk to me again? (Derek is silent, staring at the CT screen) Am I invisible? I'm feeling strangely invisible. (Derek is still silent) Also inaudible. Derek: What? (Addison walks into the room and stands over Derek's shoulder) Addison: Another surgery? So I guess dinner-shopping is out. Derek: Yeah, it's not gonna happen tonight. (Addison nods) Sorry. Addison: No, you're not. I'm just trying to figure out why you're not. It's Christmas Derek. Derek: Yeah. I know. (He stands up and starts heading out of the room) Addison: It's our season. What's going on? Are you mad? Are you depressed? What? Derek: No. Mr. Epstein here is depressed. He's bleeding from his frontal lobe. Everything's fine. We're fine Addie. You know just, I'll see you at home, ok? (He heads off, leaving Addison looking upset) (Mr. Epstein's room where he's lying down on his bed. His wife is standing beside his bedside looking upset. Derek is standing at the foot of the bed) Derek: You need second surgery, Mr. Epstein. Frontal lobe is difficult. We may be able to improve things but ah you should be prepared for the possibility that things could get worse. Tim (anger in voice): That's great. That's just great. I am so glad we came to this hospital so I could be treated by a bunch of quacks who don't know their asses from the inside of my skull! (Mrs. Epstein looks apologetically at Derek. Derek gestures at her to talk outside the room. They walk out into the hallway) Mrs. Epstein: This isn't my husband. This is not my husband. He doesn't speak to me this way. He doesn't speak to anyone this way. Derek: I know this is difficult Mrs. Epstein but the important thing right now is that we stop the bleeding. Mrs. Epstein (trying not to cry): He's the love of my life. And I know that you have a lot of other patients and you do a lot of other surgeries but he's the love of (she lets out a sob) my life. Because I just, I just need your word that you treat this change in my husband's personality as seriously as you would a fatal cancer. Because that's the way it feels to me and my kids. We were happy. We were a happy family. It just ... if you could just fix it (she takes Derek's hand in hers) ... just fix it. Derek: Mrs. Epstein, I'm going to do everything in my power, all right? Ok? (Mrs. Epstein nods) (Cristina is standing at the nurse's station outside Justin's room watching Justin talk to a priest in the room and his mom sitting at his bedside) Justin: I didn't want it. I already got one new heart. I didn't deserve another one. Father Michael: Justin, you don't have to feel guilty about having a new heart. God wants you to live. That's why he sent you the heart. Justin: I'm not stupid, ok? God didn't send me the heart and there's no such thing as God. Marion (shocked): Justin! Father Michael: Marion. Marion, it's all right. Justin: The heart I have now, my mom told me the heart came from Santa. (Cristina walks in and check's Justin's vitals) I thought elves made it in their factory or whatever. But that's not true, is it? Father Michael: No it isn't. Justin: Yeah. I heard the nurses talking. Where it really came from is some other kid. Some other kid had to die so I could live. Marion (crying): Oh Justin, baby. (She sits on the bid. Cristina walks out of the room) Justin: And then I outgrew that kid's heart. So for the last two years my mom has been praying that another kid would die for me. (to his mother) That's what you pray for all the time, isn't it mom? (Marion just looks down and doesn't answer) That's what she prayed for father. How does God feel about that? (Justin closes his eyes) Father Michael: Justin. Marion: Justin. (Justin's monitor starts beeping rapidly. Cristina hears the beeping) Marion (shaking Justin): Justin baby? Wake up Justin! (she calls out) Nurse! Oh please no. (Cristina rushes in) Cristina: Move please. (yells and moves Marion out of the way) Move please! Marion: No, no, no, God please. Cristina: Code blue! (She starts prepping Justin) Just stay back! Marion: Justin baby I'm right here. Please Justin I love you! (Nurses rush in. Cristina lowers Justin's bed, as a team brings in the crash cart) Cristina: Please shut her up! Nurse: He's in V-FIB. Cristina: Charge the paddle to 100. Nurse: Charged. Cristina: Clear. (Cristina places the paddles on Justin and shocks his heart. Immediately the heart monitor starts beeping normally and Justin coughs awake. Cristina looks relieved while Justin just looks upset) (Burke and Cristina are walking out of Justin's room and down a hospital hallway) Cristina: Ok we need to get him back on the donor's list. It's a bad heart. Burke: It's not a bad heart. Cristina: Well can you get him back on the list? Burke: He's waited two years for this heart. He has to fight for it. He has to decide he wants to live. Cristina (frustrated): Ok, medically speaking is there anything else we haven't done? Burke: The way you're feeling right now ... is why I have to believe in something bigger than me. Because if I didn't, that powerlessness would eat me alive. (He walks up the stairwell, leaving Cristina standing there) (OR where Derek and Izzie are operating on Mr. Epstein again) Derek: Drill please. Izzie: Any danger of two craniotomy's in one day? Derek: No more than with one. (He starts drilling) Derek: Is there any music? Nurse: Any requests? Derek (looking at Izzie): Christmas carols. Or Hanukkah. Is there such a thing as Hanukkah carols? (The bars of a Hanukkah song start) The brain is a mysterious thing Dr. Stevens. You never know what may penetrate the psyche. (Izzie looks like she's smiling through her scrubs mask) (O.R where Nadia is being operated on. Bailey is being fed a drink by a scrubs nurse, while George and Meredith stand near the operating table, holding clamps and stuff in Nadia's body cavity) George: Oh, look at that. Meredith: Kissing ulcers. One's perfed and the other one's bleeding. George: Two ulcers. Not surprised by the family. I should've thrown them out. Why didn't I throw them out? That's what I should've done. But no I didn't. (Bailey turns back to the operating table, scrub mask in place and everything) Bailey: Stop whining O'Malley, you had your chance; you didn't take it. Move on. George: Right, sorry. Bailey: Do not kick me. George: Excuse me? Bailey: Are you kicking me under the table O'Malley? George (shocked): No! Bailey: Then clearly I wasn't talking to you! ... Uh! Eh! (she backs away from the operating table) You can not kick me while I'm doing my job. (Bailey is pressing against her pregnant belly. Everyone just stares at her amazed) Bailey: Thank you. (She steps back up to the operating table) (Izzie is walking down the abandoned hospital hangout. Alex is lying down on a hospital bed asleep with textbooks surrounding him. Izzie walks up to him and slaps him) Izzie: Wake up. (Alex sits up groggy) Izzie: God, no wonder you failed your boards. What do you expect to learn this stuff by osmosis? Alex (sleepy): What are you doing here? Izzie (crosses her arms in front of her): I'm a farmer, ok? I've been drooling, puking and crapping in my pants. Alex: You came here to help me study? Izzie (annoyed): Well I'm not actually crapping my pants now, am I? Alex: Why would you want to help me after what I did? (Izzie is silent for a moment, shaking with anger) Izzie (yells): Because it's what Jesus would freaking do! (Cristina is standing in Justin's room by his bedside. She looks over to his mother who is fast asleep near the door. She then takes a seat and sits next to Justin. She leans forward) Cristina: You know I don't believe in Santa either Justin or God. (Justin looks over at her slowly) I believe in medicine. And it's a medical miracle you're alive. With the heart you had, you should've, you should've died after two weeks after you were born. Except some surgeon figured out a way to give you someone else's heart which is, is so much cooler than Santa. ... So I'm just saying ... ... I think you should decide to live. ... Live so you can become a doctor and you can find a way to do heart transplants without someone having to die. Or live so you can grow up so you can have kids and you know what raise them not to believe in Santa. And that, that would piss your mom off. (Justin smiles) Just decide to live because in your case dying really isn't the best revenge. (Cristina leans back into her chair) (Hospital waiting room, where Nadia Shelton's family sit waiting. Bailey and George walk up to them. Mrs. Shelton and Jimmy stand up immediately) Jimmy: How is she? Nadia's Mother: Is she gonna be alright? Bailey: She lost a lot of blood but we were able to replace it and repair the tear. She's gonna require several days of observation but she should have a full recovery. Jimmy: Oh thank god. (Bailey is smiling as she starts to leave) Nadia's Mother: Thank god is right 'cause we're certainly not going to thank you! (Bailey stops smiling and stands where she is) Nadia's Mother: We should sue you for all your worth! We sat here and sat here and sat here and sat here and sat here ... Bailey (whispers to George): You wanna help me out? Nadia's Mother: And watched you take patient after patient after ... George: Really? Bailey: Yeah. You got your second chance. Just don't screw it up. Nadia's Mother: You made my daughter wait for 3 whole days for her operation! I should sue you and this whole damn hospital! (The rest of the family walks up to them) George: Ok, yeah you could sue us or you could just consider the possibility of just shutting the hell up. Nadia's Mother: What did you say to me? (to Ernie) Did you hear what he said to me? Ernie: I heard him. Josh: You can't talk to an old lady like that. Nadia's Mother: Where is my daughter? I'd like to see her. George: Well you can't. I'm her doctor and she is my patient and this is a hospital which is the kinda place where people could generally use a little peace and quiet. So no right now you can't see her. And I'm not saying this just because you thrat to sue Dr. Bailey who spent the last several hours saving your daughter's life (The family look outraged at this, while Bailey just looks smug) saving your wife's life. I'm saying this because she is my patient and she is in the recovery wing of this hospital trying to recover! And visiting hours are over! So goodnight! (a little calmer) and Merry Christmas. (He walks off, leaving the family looking shell-shocked) Bailey: Interns. Too emotional. Oh, apologies. (She also walks off) (Hospital hangout where Izzie is sitting on the hospital bed and Alex is standing in front of her) Alex: Uh, is the nausea constant or intermittent? Izzie: Constant. Alex: When, when did it first start? Izzie: After I worked in the fields all day. Alex: Do you have any allergies you're aware of? (Izzie's struggling really hard not to cry. Her eyes are filled with tears) Izzie (tears in her voice, she shakes her head): No. (Alex moves to sit next to Izzie as she starts crying now freely) Alex: Izzie, ... I never wanted to hurt you. Izzie (crying): You didn't hurt me. I don't even know you. I'm a farmer! Alex: You, you're still the patient? Izzie (still crying but indignant): What does it look like? Alex: It's organophosphates. (Izzie nods) Pesticide poisoning. Crying is a symptom, that's it right? Izzie (nods and continues to cry): Right. (Meredith is walking down the hospital hallway dressed to go home. She smiles when she sees Bailey fast asleep dressed to go home on an empty gurney) (Meredith is still inside the hospital but at the foyer entrance about to walk out. Derek also dressed to go home, walks out of the elevator and sees her) Derek: Hey. (Meredith closes her eyes and stops walking. She turns and faces Derek) Meredith: Hey. (She starts again heading out of the hospital) Derek: You, ok? Meredith: Yeah, yeah. You know, holidays. Derek: Yeah. I do know. (They head outside into the night) Meredith: Merry Christmas. Derek: Merry Christmas. (They part ways) (Derek enters Joe's bar. He walks up to the bar where Joe is standing) Joe: Hey. Derek: Merry Christmas Joe. Joe: Merry Christmas. (He pours Derek a drink) Double scotch. Single malt. Derek: You're a good man. (He takes the drink) Addison: Hey, Dr. Shepherd. (Derek turns and sees Addison sitting at a bar table with catalogues and her own drink. She smiles at him. He lifts up his drink and toasts it at her) Derek: Dr. Shepherd. (He takes a sip and makes his way over to the table) Addison : So? How's Mr. Epstein's frontal lobe? Derek: He woke up smiling. Addison: Congratulations. Derek: Thank you. What are you drinking? Addison (chuckles): It's ah hot buttered rum. It's delicious. Derek (smiling): It's Dickensian. Addison: Ah no, yeah, well it is Christmas. Derek: Hmm. Addison: Christmas Derek. We love Christmas. At least we used to. Derek: Yeah. ... Christmas makes you want to be with people you love. ( Addison looks up at this) ... I'm not saying this to hurt you or because I want to leave you. Because I don't. (Addison looks confused) Meredith wasn't a fling. (Addison sits back instantly on guard) She wasn't revenge. I fell in love with her. That doesn't go away because I decided to stay with you. (He sits down next to her while Addison contemplates what he has just said) MVO: There's an old proverb that says you can't choose your family. (Cristina arrives home to Burke's apartment. She places her bag down on a table as well as her keys. She stops when she sees the little Christmas tree Burke had this morning all decorated and lit up.) MVO: You take what the fates hand you... (She smiles when she sees an 8-candle Hanukkah set sitting on the window sill. She looks into the bed room and sees Burke half lying-half sitting on the bed reading a book.) MVO: ...and like them or not, love them or not, understand them or not ... (Cristina is now dressed for bed and she climbs in next to Burke) Cristina: Justin took a turn. His fever's down and his BP is up. (She cuddles up into Burke) Burke (knowingly): I wonder what got through to him. Cristina: I don't know. MVO: ...you cope. (Townhouse where Izzie is lying down on the floor with her head under the Christmas tree. The tree is all lit up and flashing. Meredith walks into the room) Meredith: Pretty. Izzie: Yeah. (Meredith lies down next to Izzie) MVO: Then there's the school of thought that says the family you're born into is simply a starting point. (George now comes to the living room and looks at the two confused) George: What are we doing? Izzie: Lights. (George sets down his coffee mug and runs quickly into the room and lies down next to Meredith and also begins staring at the lights) MVO: They feed you and clothe you and take care of you until your ready to go out into the world. (Doc barks once and enters the room and sits down next to George) MVO: ...and find your tribe. (The camera pans up the tree and fades out)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x12 - Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x13: Begin the Begin Original Airdate: 1/15/2006 Written by: Kip Koenig Directed by: Jessica Yu (Meredith's house) (Izzie is in the bathroom standing against the door, holding a coffee mug in one hand. You can hear Doc barking and growling really loudly and you can also hear George's muffled yelling) George (screams): God, holy, ow. I said down, back...IZZIE! IZZIE! Incoming! (Izzie looks startled and moves to open the bathroom door and George runs in and they both slam the door shut) MVO: Fresh starts. Thanks to the calendar, they happen every year. (Izzie hands George her coffee mug which he accepts gratefully) MVO: Just set your watch to January. Izzie: You know I'm thinking about coloring my hair. Maybe red. George: Yeah. Red's good. I'm thinking about cutting mine. Izzie: Yeah? You look good shorter. George (looks a little surprised): You think? (You can now hear Meredith giving the dog compliments and the barking has stopped. George and Izzie open the door tentatively and peek out) Meredith: What a good dog? Who's mommy's good boy? (They see Meredith patting and shaking the dog's paw) Meredith: Silly. Yes, I know. You're a good boy. You're such a good boy. (They look absolutely amazed by this) Meredith: What are you guys doing in there? We're going to be late. George: We need to talk about the dog. Izzie: That's not a dog. It's a hyena, escaped from the zoo dressed in dog clothing. George: Whatever! I don't chew up his clothes. I don't urinate on his bed. I don't try to mount him from behind! Meredith: People, he's our dog. We love our dog. He loves us. (She continues patting and leaves. Doc turns and growls at Izzie & George and then lets out a bark) Izzie (apprehensive): He tries to mount you from behind? George: Tries to. (Doc barks loudly and George whispers) Tries to. (Derek's trailer) (Derek decked out in full fisherman's gear is heading into the trailer carrying a trout) MVO: Our reward for surviving the holiday season is a new year. Bringing on the great tradition of New Year's resolutions. (Derek walks in and up to Addison is blow drying her hair actually standing outside the bathroom) Derek: I got a trout. Addison: Oh! Derek: Rainbow trout. Addison: Why, why did you bring a trout into the house? (Derek walks to the tiny kitchen, with the trout and starts washing it) Derek: The trailer. Addison: Why did you bring a rainbow trout into the trailer? Derek: Breakfast. Addison (dad-panned): Breakfast. Derek: Yeah, you hungry? Addison: For trout? Derek (smiling): Yeah. Addison (fed up): I hate this Derek! (She tries to storm up to him but the blow dryer cord pulls her back) I... argh! I hate this! I hate, hate! I hate this trailer! (She huffs and slams the door of the bathroom behind her) Derek: So no trout for you then? MVO: Put your past behind you and start over. (Nursing Home) (Richard is visiting Ellis Grey at the nursing home. He's helping them to cups of coffee at the coffee/food table. Ellis is standing next to him) Ellis: I'm standing there with Pritchard and Lewis and they keep on asking me who was I with in the on-call room last night. Richard (uncomfortable): Uh. Ellis (grinning): They heard us. (chuckles) Were we that loud? Richard: Huh, you're loud. Ellis: Stop. (Richard starts moving towards some seats and a table) I am loud aren't I? Richard: Pritch. Was always sticking his nose in someone else's business. You know I actually saw him again ... at his wife's funeral. (They sit down) Ellis: What? Pritchard isn't married. Richard: Ah oh right, right. I'm thinking of someone else. Just confused. Ellis (nods): You need sleep. Residency is wearing you down. (They sip their coffee) Richard: Ellis? Ellis (smiles): Yes? Richard: Nothing. I just hate being an intern. Ellis: Mmm. Me too. MVO: It's hard to resist the chance at a new beginning. A chance to put the problems of last year to bed. (OR Scrub Room) (Cristina is getting scrubbed up for a surgery. Burke walks into the room and hands Cristina a scrubs mask which she accepts smiling) Burke: So, in the name of the new year ... Cristina: Oh, I don't do resolutions. Burke: In the name of the New Year, I thought you could give me an answer to my question. Cristina: Your question? Burke: About you ... moving in. Cristina (sighs): I don't have an answer. Burke: Cristina. Cristina: I'm not being Cristina. I just ... I don't have an answer. Burke: Then answer me this. What were you planning to do? Cristina: About what? Burke: The baby. (Cristina looks up at this but a scrub nurse enters the room) Nurse: Dr. Burke, we're ready for you. (Cristina leaves and Burke is left looking upset) (Richard is standing up on some stairs talking to a crowd of interns and doctors that are standing at the base of the stairs. Meredith walks up to the crowd and stands next to Alex who is also standing there) Richard: Listen up people. New Year, new rules or should I say New Year and we will be enforcing the rules mandated by the residency review committee. There were too many mistakes made last year. (Alex looks down at this) Fatigue played too big a role. Exceeding 80 hours per week will not be tolerated. George (whispers to Izzie): Does that mean we actually get to have a life? Izzie: I think so. Richard: Sullivan, you were on-call for 28 hours, leave when you ht 30. Grey you were here to 2am last night, see you at noon. Meredith (to Alex): I get to go? Free time? Alex: Run before he changes his mind. (Meredith leaves) Richard: Oh and people our nurses are gonna have to work extra hours to compensate so treat them well. Cranky nurses don't do us any good. (The crowd disperses and Izzie and George walk past Alex) Izzie (to Alex): Well maybe you can cheer them up. (George chuckles and Alex gives her a look. Izzie stops walking and turns around) Izzie: You know what? My New Year's resolution was to let it go, and I am.I have...let it go. I apologize. (They all start walking down the hallway together) George (amazed): You do? (Alex smirks at George) Izzie: I do. How'd your test go? Alex: I feel pretty good about it but I won't know for a few days. Izzie: Well we're all pulling for you. George: We are? Izzie: We are. (Burke is performing surgery in the O.R with another doctor. Cristina is standing a few feet away watching) Burke: He can see the mesothelioma better now that I've partially dissected it. Cristina: Um, I can't uh, I can't really see it from here. Can I, can I go in closer. Burke: You're fine there. (Richard enters the O.R) Richard: Preston, good news. We have a heart for Denny Duquette. Burke: Great news. Has he been called? Richard: Got here 10 minutes ago. Burke (nods): Good. I was worried we couldn't find a match in time. Richard: We have a plane ready to take you to Twin Falls, Idaho for the organ recovery. 90 mins each way. How much more do you have here? Burke: Uh, heart comes out first. I'll be cutting it too close. Richard: They have a local heart team there so ... Burke: No, Bailey. Send Bailey. She'll be our eyes. (Richard nods and then stares at Cristina) Richard: Dr. Yang, you need to leave this O.R. Cristina: Excuse me? Richard: You've exceeded your 80 hour limit for the week. You have to leave the hospital. Cristina: Okay um, um as soon as the mesothelioma is dissected out. Richard: Dr. Yang. Now. (Cristina nods and Richard walks to the door but Cristina still stands there) Burke: You heard him. (Cristina looks down and walks out of the OR, the door being held open by Richard for her) (Bailey, Alex, Izzie & George are doing rounds. They enter Denny Duquette's room. A reasonably good looking heart transplant patient's. He is lying in a hospital bed as a nurse fixes his IV) Bailey: Denny Duquette. Denny: Hey Dr. Bailey. Bailey: I hope seeing you here means that they finally found you a heart. Denny: No offense doctor but I'm not a big fan of hospitals. It takes something pretty special to get me in here. Bailey (to Izzie): What do we know about Mr. Duquette? Denny (smiling at Izzie): Capricorn, single, loves to travel and cook. Bailey: Denny be quiet. Let her show off. Izzie (looks down smiling): Denny Duquette, 36. Admitted today for a heart transplant necessitated by a viral-cardiomyopathy. Bailey: Hmm and what does that mean? Izzie: That his heart is unable to fill and pump blood normally. Bailey: Good. Denny this is Dr. Stevens. She'll be tending to your private surgery. Denny (grins): So I guess I'll be seeing you around, Dr. Stevens. (Alex looks on less than amused as Izzie smiles back. They leave the room and stand at the nurse's station as Bailey finishes checking on Denny) Alex: Gotta hand it to the guy, trying to get some action when he's practically a corpse. Izzie: Alex, he's just trying to be nice. (Bailey and George walk out of the room and start walking down the hallway. Izzie and Alex catch up to them) Bailey: No one enforced an 80 hour work week when I was an intern. 110, 120 hours suited me just fine. I learned more because I worked more. George: Well at least this way you get a rest before you have the baby. I mean being that pregnant, keeping up this pace. Bailey: Are you saying I look tired O'Malley? George: No, not tired, no. You look fresh, spry. You glow. What (he looks at his watch) stop now? Bailey: O'Malley, go do an intake on Addison Shepherd's patient. George (still looking down): Addison. (He walks off. Bailey turns to Izzie and Alex) Izzie: You do glow. Alex: Like the moon. Bailey: And you can spend the day in the pit Karev. (Bailey and Izzie walk off) (A young girl named Bex is sitting on the hospital bed drawing on a drawing pad. Her parents are next to her talking to each other. George walks in and is followed by Addison a few seconds later) Addison: Dr. O'Malley. George: Hi. (He hands Addison the chart) Mr. and Mrs. Singleton, Rebecca, this is Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. (Addison shakes hands with the parents) Mrs. Singleton: You don't think it's cancer, do you? Bex is too young for cancer right? Addison: Mrs. Singleton, I'm just getting up to speed. I'm sorry. Dr. O'Malley? George: Rebecca has been admitted for... Bex (interrupts): Could you stop calling me that? Mr. Singleton: She prefers Bex. Not Rebecca. George: Bex has been admitted for an ultrasound-guided biopsy on an enlargement of the pelvic lymph node. Addison: Okay Bex, you mind if I check it out? Mr. Singleton: Okay, I'll just ah ... (He nods and leaves the room) Addison: It's a minor procedure Bex, but we'll give a local anesthetic to manage the pain. (Addison starts feeling around Bex's stomach and chest) George: What are you drawing? Bex: Just a dumb comic. George: You're really talented. Mrs. Singleton: It's big, I know. It just appeared one day. Addison: I'll perform a biopsy this morning and Dr. O'Malley will have to take some blood so we can run some tests and then we can start to get you some answers. Ok? Mrs. Singleton there's no need to panic. I'll keep you posted every step of the way. Mrs. Singleton (nods): Thank you. (Addison leaves) George: Sorry about this but I'm going to need that arm to get some blood. I'll be quick. (Bex stops drawing and George takes her arm and rolls up her sleeve. He notices several slash and cut marks on Bex's wrist. He looks up at Mrs. Singleton who just looks down) (Mauer Paskowitz and his fianc� Audrey's room) Alex: Mr. Paskowitz, we've located the source of your abdominal pain. (He points to the x-ray film he's holding) There. It's called a bezoar. Mauer: Bezoar, huh? Alex: Yeah it's a clump of foreign matter that couldn't be expelled with a pro-kinetic agent. Mauer: I love it. In a hospital a laxative is a pro-kinetic agent. Audrey: So what you just go up his butt and grab it? Mauer: Baby, please. Alex: Actually we won't be able to reach it that way. We will have to get it from here. (He points directly at Mr. Paskowitz stomach) So Mauer, tell me what you've been eating? Mauer: Garbage. Absolute garbage. Alex: Could you be more specific? Audrey: Tell him what you ate, Mauer. (Mauer just stays silent) He's a writer. Suffering for his art. Alex (nods): Ok. Audrey: He ate his novel. Alex (does a double take): Huh, I'm sorry what? Mauer: I ate my novel, ok? The whole damn thing. Every last piece of that unmitigated crap. (Audrey just smiles and shakes her head. Alex is left looking amazed) (George is walking up to Addison, who is standing at a nurse's station) George (hands Addison a chart): The labs for Bex Singleton. Addison: Anything? George: Yeah her hormone levels, estrogen, progesterone are sky high. Addison: Huh, you did a history right? Any mention of birth control pills? George: No, but her parents were right there. Addison (hands him back the chart): Talk to her again. George: But she hasn't ht puberty yet, isn't that weird she'd be having sex? Addison: These days Dr. O'Malley it's not that unusual. Talk to the patient. (Addison leaves) (Richard is walking up to Derek who is dressed in regular clothes, using his phone in the middle of a hospital hallway) Richard: Derek. Derek: Oh, morning Richard. Richard: You busy? Derek: No, my surgery just got cancelled. Why? Richard: I need a favor. Derek: Sure. (Bex's room, where she is now by herself, drawing some really amazing comics. George enters the room) George: Hey Bex. Is your mom and dad ... Bex: Food. George: Great. ... Because I wanted to talk to you. Your lab work showed ... have you been taking birth control pills? Bex (stops drawing & looks up scared): If you tell my mom and dad- George (interrupts): No, I won't. I just ah need to know why. Do you have a boyfriend? Bex: Like anybody would want to have sex with me. George: Well then why? Bex: I'm as flat as a board. I took like 5 of those pills a day and nothing's different. (George just stares at her confused) Boobs, dude. George (realization dawns): You were trying to make your breasts grow. Bex: I wanted to be normal for once in my life. (George nods to himself) Is this what caused the tumor? George: No. No the pill wouldn't have any effect on your lymph nodes but it would ... the amount you were taking is really dangerous and it caused a pretty major hormonal imbalance. Have you been feeling any different than usual? Bex: I feel like how I always feel. (She brings up one arm and rests on it. It reveals the scars on her wrist) (Derek is standing in an elevator, reading a paper with two other nurses. The doors open and reveal Meredith standing outside dressed to go home. She walks in and the two nurses leave) Meredith: Hi. Derek (puts the paper away): Hi. You leaving? Meredith: 80 hour limit. You? Derek: Surgery was postponed. (It looks like he's checking her out. He can't stop smiling or looking at her. Meredith looks over at him) Meredith: I have a dog. Derek (smiles): You have a dog. Meredith: My point is I have a dog. Derek (full on grinning now): You have a dog. Oh you know what? I love dogs. Meredith: I've moved on so don't give me that look. (He moves from his position against the wall and stands up close to her) Derek: What look? Meredith: That look. Our look. I'm over you. Derek: I'm over you too. Meredith: You are? Derek (shakes his head smiling): No. Meredith (matter of factly): Oh, well I am. Over you. Derek: I'm over you too. Meredith: You just said ... (He raises his eyebrows at her) Shut up. (The doors open and they are both smiling at each other until they see who is standing in front of the doors. Addison. Who is by the way not looking very happy) Derek (to Addison): Hi. Meredith (to Derek): Bye. (Meredith walks out of the elevator. Derek resumes his original position of leaning against the wall and Addison walks in. She has a very ill look on her face but doesn't say anything) Derek (sighs): There is a land called 'passive-agressiva' and you are their queen. Addison: I am fine. Derek: Except when you shriek about trout. Addison: I was not shrieking about trout. Derek: Right, you weren't. You were shrieking about Meredith. Addison: No, I was shrieking about the trailer. I hate the trailer. Derek: Oh okay, so the past three weeks have been about the trailer? Addison: Yes. Derek: Not about the fact that I said I love Meredith. Addison: Loved. Derek: What? Addison: You said you loved her. Past tense. Derek (looks down): Right yes past tense. Addison: Well then I have been shrieking about the trailer. Derek (nods disbelieving): Mmm. (The doors ding open and Addison leaves. Derek just shakes his head) (Alex is entering Mauer's patient room with another intern, who is wheeling in a gurney) Alex: Ok Mauer it's time to return your book to the library. Your surgery is in an hour. Mauer: What's up with this flop sweat? (Mauer is sweating like crazy) Alex: Probably just nerves. Mauer: But I'm sweating like, like, like Nixon. President Richard Milhous Nixon. (Audrey just shakes her head) That guy could sweat. And I Mauer Paskowitz, I wrote an epic-like crap novel that I sure as shine can sweat like Nixon. (The two other doctor's and Alex start prepping Mauer for his surgery) Audrey: It's not that even bad of a book. I read practically every draft. Mauer: Forgive me honey but you are not exactly Lionel Trilling. It blows. Alex: Lionel Trilling? Audrey: He seeks the approval of dad literary critics. The dad don't read Mauer. Alex: You think of being something other than a writer? Mauer: No. I am a writer. Mauer Paskowitz! I have no plan B. Audrey: We can't get married for three years until the damn book is done. Three years I listened to him piss and moan! For what? So he can eat the thing. Mauer: Ha! (They move Mauer onto the gurney) Alex: The computer have a delete button? Mauer: I wanted to literally put it behind me and start a new book. Audrey: Okay, we all get the symbolism. It's painfully obvious. Alex: And obviously painful. (The wheel Mauer out of the room) (Bailey is receiving a container for transporting the heart she's supposed to get. Cristina peers around the corner dressed to go home. Cristina creeps up to her as Bailey grabs her stuff and starts heading down the hallway) Cristina: Uh, hi. I heard that you were going to Twin Falls, Idaho. I've never been. Bailey: You reached 80 hours? Cristina: Technically. Bailey: You're off work Cristina. Go enjoy your day. (Cristina takes Bailey's coat from her and helps her put it on) Cristina: I'll enjoy my day if I can help retrieve a heart. Promise. (Bailey just shakes her head in disbelief but lets Cristina tag along) Cristina: It's a nice coat. (Addison is performing an ultrasound on Bex in her patient room. George is in there but her parent's are not) Addison: You see that Dr. O'Malley? George: It looks like a tumor is compressing an ovary. Addison: That's why I biopsed both ovaries. Bex: Is that bad? Addison: It's really just a precaution Bex. ( Addison moves away from the bed) Apply pressure Dr. O'Malley. (Addison puts the biopsied tissue into containers at the end of the bed) Addison: I'll get this up to Path. You mind doing the dressings? George: Sure. Addison: Alright Bex, then we'll get you the results just as soon as possible. (She takes the containers and leaves. George avoids looking at Bex's wrists which Bex notices) Bex: You're a doctor, haven't you seen scars before? George: I'm just trying to figure out why someone with so much talent would want to do that. (He looks at the comic book that lies on the table in front of her) Bex: It's just a comic book. It's about me and my best friend Jen, when we were kids. Satisfied? George: Did she write it with you? Bex: Jen has a boyfriend like everyone else. I get to be a freak all by myself. George: Oh, freak. That's not the easiest thing to be in high school is it? Bex: You sound like my shrink. George: Hey, I wasn't always a doctor. In high school, I was ... secretary and treasurer ... of the dungeons and dragons club. Bex (chuckles): Oh man! George: Yeah. I was also a mathlete and I won the blue ribbon in biology club. Best fetal pig dissection. Yeah, and let me tell you that had the girls knocking down my door. You just have to get through high school. Cause high school sucks for anyone who's the least bit different. But then there's college. And out in the real world, you will find where you fit in. Bex: You think so? George: Yeah, I know so. (Izzie is entering Denny's room. Denny has his eyes closed and looks like he is asleep) Denny (opens his eyes): Hi. (Izzie lets a small gasp) Izzie: Denny. Ha ha, I thought you were asleep. Denny: Nah, I don't sleep in hospitals. Scared I'll never wake up. (Izzie gets out her stethoscope and checks Denny's heartbeat) Denny: Can I ask you something personal? Izzie: If I say no? Denny: I'll hold my breath which will stop my heart, klling me. You're right here, you'll be charged with mrder. Lifetime in prison loved by a big old girl named Hilde. Izzie: So my choices are homicide charges or inappropriate personal questions from a patient. Denny: I know, kinda sucks. (Izzie starts entering information in the computer next to Denny) Izzie: You know what? Hold your breath. I'll take my chances with Hilde. I can do girl on girl. Denny: Oh so you're brining up girl on girl? How can I blackmail if you bring up girl on girl? Izzie (smiling): What do you wanna know? Denny: That guy Alex. You with him? Izzie: No. Not anymore and never ever again. Denny: Good. Izzie: Good? Denny: Yeah good. It means I won't have to fight him for you. Izzie: What makes you think I want you to fight him for me? Denny: Hello? You are in love with me. Izzie (laughs): Am I? Denny (grinning): Yeah, it's not your fault. I mean I'm well off but not into money. I'm smart but I'm not a know-it-all. I'm funny. I'm really nice. I love animals. (Izzie fake swoons) And I'm hot. I'm a catch. You know if you can wrap your head around the enlarged failing heart and the dependency to IV meds. Izzie (playful): You're right. I am so in love with you. It's a shame really, since I'm with Hilde and all. (They both chuckle and Izzie leaves) (Meredith's house) (Meredith has piles of laundry on the kitchen breakfast table. She is folding sheets while Doc sits next to the table) Meredith (to Doc): There. Five loads of laundry. I have literally washed the past out of my life. (Doc just pants) (Pathology lab) (Addison is looking through a microscope. George enters) George: You paged me? Addison: Yeah, have a look at this. It's Bex's biopsy. (Addison moves away from the microscope and George steps up to have a look) George: Biopsied ovary? Addison: Not exactly. I've arranged a meeting with Bex's parents, George. Oh and find out who the on-call psychiatrist is and if they're available to join us. George (looks up): Does she have cancer? Addison: No, it's not an ovary. It's a testis. George: A testis? (He looks back into the microscope) Are you sure? Addison: Yes. I'm sure. George (amazed): Bex is a hermaphrodite? Addison: Yes. (Helicopter) (Cristina is sitting in a seat shting glances at Bailey's stomach, who sits in two seats across the aisle with her eyes closed. Bailey awakens and sees Cristina looking) Bailey: Yang, why are you staring at my fat pregnant belly? Cristina: Sorry, I'm ... (She looks out the window) (Conference Room) (George, Addison and Raj the psych guy are sitting at a table. Mr. Singleton is pacing around the room, while Mrs. Singleton sits across from them) Mr. Singleton: Let me get this straight. You're telling me that our daughter, my daughter, you're telling me my daughter might actually be a boy? Mrs. Singleton: That, how is that possible? (Mr. Singleton sits down next to his wife) I don't understand. I don't understand how- Mr. Singleton (interrupts): Shouldn't this have been detected somehow? Addison: Externally, Bex has female genitalia. She looks like a girl, but internally she has both female and male sex organs. Mrs. Singleton (upset): So what now? What are we supposed to do? I don't understand. Addison: Ok, the best news is that the lymph node tumor is benign. So physically Bex is going to be just fine but emotionally (she looks at Raj), psychologically I strongly recommend therapy. Mr. Singleton: She's already in therapy. Addison: I'm talking about therapy for all of you. This is not going to be easy for Bex to hear and it's, it's not going to be easy adjustment for you to make. Mrs. Singleton: My god. My poor girl. Mr. Singleton: A big adjustment? What kind of adjustment? Raj: Many inter-sex people begin to identify very strongly with one sex and it's not necessarily the sex they've been raised. Mrs. Singleton (adamant): She's, she's a girl. She looks like a girl; she has always been a girl. George: It at least helps explain why she feels so different. (The parents just stare at him) Raj: The point is that biologically and emotionally speaking, she has a choice to make. Mrs. Singleton: A choice? (Mauer is being wheeled down the hallway for his surgery by the same 2 interns as before and Alex with Audrey walking beside them) Mauer: My mouth feels all weird. Audrey (sarcastic): Chewing paper will have that effect lover. Alex: Weird how? Mauer: Pins and needles. No needles and pins. Needles and pins. Yeah, yeah. Sprouting from my fingers and toes like, like, like ... lord god give me a simile. Alex (to Audrey): Is he always this way? Audrey: The man ate a novel, he's not exactly normal. But he got weirder the more he ate. He's like obsessed. (They stop as they meet the Chief. Alex hands Richard the chart) Richard: Mr. Paskowitz, I'm Dr. Webber. I'm going to be performing your surgery today. (They all wheel Mauer into the elevator) Mauer: I poured my heart and soul into that freaking book and now it's stuck up my ass! Put that on my tombstone Audrey! On my tombstone! (Denny's room as he just taps his fingers in a rhythm obviously agitated. Izzie walks in) Denny: Hey Dr. Stevens. Izzie: Hey Denny. You ok? Denny: I've been waiting for this a long time you know? You're going to open up my chest, take out my heart and replace it with another one. Izzie: Well not me and not another heart. A better heart. Denny: What if something goes wrong? (Izzie walks up to Denny's bedside) Izzie: Don't be nervous. Dr. Burke is an incredible surgeon and you're getting a new heart today. Just keep thinking about that. Denny: Yeah ok. (Burke walks in with Denny's chart) Burke: Denny! Denny: Preston Burke. My favorite cardio-thoracic surgeon. Burke: Oh, your only cardio-thoracic surgeon, but thanks. I will be on the phone with Dr. Bailey as the organ recovery progresses. We wanna make sure that the heart stays viable, isn't damaged while the other organs are perfused. We'll have you in the O.R and if it is a go, we'll start the procedure before she even gets back. (Burke hands Izzie the chart) Denny: Hey Izzie. Izzie: Yeah? Denny: I'm getting a new heart. Izzie (smiles and nods): You're getting a new heart. (They smile at each other) Izzie: I'll see ya. Denny: Bye. (She leaves) (Addison and George are walking down the hallway to Bex's room. They meet Bex's parent outside the room) Mr. Singleton: Ah excuse me, ah uh Mary and I were talking. Ah and ah we think Bex should stay... Mrs. Singleton (interrupts): She can't handle something like this. You saw the scars. George (amazed): You're not going to tell her? (Mr. and Mrs. Singleton shake their heads) George: But this could help her. You can't not tell her who she is. Addison: Dr. O'Malley. (To the parents) Uh we'll go ahead and proceed with scheduled surgery to remove the tumor and then you can talk to your daughter in your own time. Mrs. Singleton: Actually, we were thinking (she gestures for her husband to continue) Mr. Singleton: We thought since you're already going to be in there ... Uh we know fixed isn't the right word but- Mrs. Singleton (interrupts): We were thinking that with the hormonal confusion, it might be easier on her to remove whatever boy parts she has. (George looks horrified) Mr. Singleton: Keep her more of a girl. Addison: Just to be clear you're asking me to perform sexual reassignment surgery on your daughter? Mr. & Mrs. Singleton: Yes. George (astounded): Without her knowing? Mr. Singleton: Well all she's said all her life is that she wants to be normal. She doesn't feel normal. Mrs. Singleton: Why can't we just put an end to her agony? Addison: First of all removing her male sexual organs may not do that, in fact it could do just the opposite. Mrs. Singleton: But her hormones... George: Can be controlled with an oral medication. Mr. Singleton: We just want the best for Bex. Addison: To do surgery and alter her body permanently is ... well I just would never to do that on someone who isn't aware of the procedure and you're going to hard-pressed to find a surgeon who will. (She walks off) George: Bex will learn the truth someday. (Bex walks up to her room door and looks on) How do you want her to find out? ... Excuse me. (He walks away) (Nursing Home) (Meredith is walking through the nursing home when Nurse Linda calls out to her) Nurse Linda: Meredith! Hi. (Meredith walks up to her) Meredith: Hi. I had the morning off so I thought I would come and see how my mother's doing. Nurse Linda: Oh, she's fine. She's in the sitting room. Meredith: Thanks. Nurse Linda: She's in good spirits. Visitors really cheer her up. (Linda wanders off) Meredith (to herself): Visitors? (She looks over and sees Derek walking up and making himself a cup of coffee) (Seattle Scenes) (Nursing Home) (Meredith is now talking angrily to Derek in an empty hallway) Meredith: What are you doing here? Derek: There is a clinical trial to study the progression of early onset Alzheimer's. Meredith: Okay me you can screw with. My mother, no. Not acceptable. Derek: Well there has been some really promising results from similar studies in Europe. Your mother is a prime candidate. Meredith: My mother is very sick and has very few good days. And I don't want her being poked and prodded for some experimental program. Derek (nods): I'm just trying to help. Meredith: Well see this, what you're doing, being Dreamy. It doesn't help. It hurts me. It messes with my head. Derek: I know the feeling. Meredith: I don't doubt that but you have a wife to go home to and I'm guessing she has no idea where you are right now. Derek (chuckles): No, she doesn't. Meredith: It's what I thought. (She walks away) (Twin Falls hospital, OR) (Bailey and Cristina are in the OR with the operating team about to perform surgery on the organ donor. A scrubs nurse hands Bailey the telephone) Nurse: Dr. Bailey. (Bailey accepts the phone) Bailey: Dr. Burke. (Cristina looks up at this) Burke (over the phone): Talk to me Bailey. What are we looking at? (Cristina makes weird gestures to tell Bailey to say she's not here. Bailey is looking through the donor's chart) Bailey: The uh donor's on 25 mics of dopamine. (Burke is on a mobile phone walking down a hallway in SGH) Burke: 25 mics? That's too much. (Back to the O.R) Bailey: They started him on 5mics of dobutamine 30 minutes prior to arrival. (Back to SGH) Burke: Are they trying to kll my heart? What is the central venous pressure now? (Back to the O.R) Bailey (to Cristina): CVP. Go. Cristina: Around 10. Bailey: Around 10. Cristina: MAP close to 80. (Bailey nods) Burke: And his mean arterial pressure? Bailey: Close to 80. (Switch back to SGH) Burke: I can live with a CVP close to 5 and a MAP about 60. That heart needs to be off the dobutamine. (Switch back to the O.R) Bailey (to the O.R team): The heart needs to be off the dobutamine. (Switch back to Burke) Burke: And tell them to get the dopamine back down to 10 mics. (Switch to the OR where Bailey shakes her head) and get them to get another 2 units of blood. (SGH) (Burke hangs up the phone and walks into Denny's pre-op room where Izzie is already standing) Denny: Are we a go Doc? Burke: Still no final word. I want to you have the healthiest heart I can find. Denny: Dr. Stevens, you'll be in there with us right? (Izzie looks at Dr. Burke who nods at her) Izzie: Yeah I'll be in there with you. (Denny smiles) (Richard is about to perform surgery on Mauer with Alex helping him. Meredith sits watching still dressed in regular clothes. George enters with a cup of coffee and sits next to her) George: Hey aren't you supposed to be having free time? Meredith: Oh, I did 5 loads of laundry. Cut my split ends, studied, cleaned out the fridge. Free time sucks. George: When would it have been the right time to hear about your boyfriend's wife? Meredith (gives him a look): Ok are you mad at me or something? George: No! No. Sorry. It's just I have this patient and I get that there's a right and a wrong time to hear big news but wouldn't you rather no sooner than later? I mean just so you could move forward one way or the other. It's a fresh start, right? (OR) Richard: See the little white line of Toldt. Now we can mobilize the lateral border of the left colon. (to Scrubs nurse) Clamp. (he gets a clamp) When Leo Tolstoy here wakes up, you might get him to revisit the idea of a new vocation. Alex: He was pretty against the idea. Richard: Yeah well hopefully it was just delirium. Alex: If it's alright, I'd like to keep an extra eye on him post-op. He's acting pretty strange. Richard: He ate a novel. Clearly he's pretty strange. Alex: Yeah you know I just don't want to overlook anything. Richard: Seriously Karev I'm short-handed all over the hospital. ... Ok here we go. (He reaches in and pulls out the clump of blood paper that is Mauer's novel. He holds it up for everybody to see) Richard (calls out): Anybody here tempted to read this? ... No takers? Could be the great American novel we'll never know. (He puts the clump in a dish to the side) He needs a plan B. Alex: He's not the only one. Richard: You don't think you passed? Alex: Eh, I thought I passed the first time. Richard: Just wait and see. Right now today, you're still here. (Bex's room where George is checking up on her) Bex: Did you tell my parents about the pill? George: No. Bex: Am I gonna die? Is that what no one wants to tell me? George: Of course not. Bex: Then why are my parents acting so ... would you just tell me what's going on? George (writing in her chart): What's going on is uh we're prepping you for surgery to remove the lymph node tumor that's compressing your ... Bex: Ovary. (Addison and Bex's parents walk into the room) Addison: Hey Bex. Bex (sits up): Mom. Dad. This is really freaking me out. Mrs. Singleton: Oh no everything is going to be fine Bex. Mr. Singleton: It's ok sweetie. Bex: I'm having surgery to remove a tumor that's compressing my ovary, right George? (George is silent) Addison: Dr. O'Malley. (She gives a slight shake of her head for him to be quiet) Bex: George? (George looks sick and remains silent) George? George: What am I just supposed to lie to her? Addison: Ok, that's enough. Dr. O'Malley, please leave the room. (George puts down the chart and starts heading out) Bex: No wait! Tell me what's wrong with me. What is wrong with me? (George just looks at the parents who give each other glances) Mr. Singleton: Bex ... (his wife nods) we learned that your tumor ... it's not compressing an ovary. Bex: Then where is it? Mrs. Singleton: It's on a testis. Bex: Like a testicle? (Everyone is silent) I have testicles? Addison: Yes one. Bex this is a tremendous amount of information for you... Bex (interrupts): And I've had it my whole life? ... Oh my god. Does this mean...does this mean I could be a boy? (Addison gives George a disapproving look as do both the parents) Bex (whispers to herself): Yes. (Hallway outside Bex's room. George is standing out there with Bex's parents who are very upset. Addison is there also) Mrs. Singleton: You engineered that conversation! You forced our hand. George: Well you were lying to her. Mr. Singleton: We were protecting her. Mrs. Singleton: She's a 14-year old girl. George: Well maybe, maybe not. (They give him appalled looks) Mrs. Singleton: This isn't your life! This isn't your child! 14 years! 14 years we have raised a daughter, in one afternoon you expect us to what?!? What is Bex is supposed to do? How is she supposed to go home and tell the other kids? What? You had no right! (Addison moves to interrupt but George gets there first) George: No, I know I'm off the case, right? (He walks away while Mr. Singleton tries to calm Mrs. Singleton down) (Post-op ward where Mauer lies in one of the many beds. Alex walks up to him. Mauer is trying to climb out of the bed) Alex: Whoa, Mauer. Mauer lay back. You just had surgery. You're losing your shirt man. Mauer: Much obliged, brock, brock. Much obliged, pal. Alex (checks Mauer's pupils): How do you feel? Mauer: What's whacked for 20 Alex? Weeds, whack, weeds, whack for 200. (Alex looks on concerned) (Derek is still dressed in regular clothing and Richard walking down a hospital hallway) Derek: I saw Ellis. Richard: And? Derek: I think I can get her into the clinical trial. She's the perfect candidate. Richard: Excellent. Thank you, Derek. Derek: You realize this requires Meredith's power of attorney? Richard (nods): Yeah. Derek: Might be better if it's coming from you. With me, there's baggage. You, you're just trying to help out a friend. Richard: Right. Right. Derek: Well, let me know if Meredith wants me to make the call. (Derek walks off, leaving Richard pondering his own true intentions. He then notices Alex at the nurse's station nearby) Richard: Karev? (He walks up to Alex) What are you doing? Alex: Research on the bezoar patient. Richard: I told you I needed you on the floor. Alex: He has fever, sweats, tingling in his lips, fingers, toes, mood swings and a lack of co-ordination. And did I mention the crazy talk? Richard: Your point? Alex: My point is, he ate his novel. Richard: I know. Alex: Mercury's in the paper. He's got mercury poisoning. (Richard looks a little surprised) (Twin Falls hospital, OR) (Bailey is performing the operation on the donor with other doctors while Cristina watches on) Bailey: Cristina, call Burke. I'm feeling some fairly extensive damage from coronary artery disease. Cristina (looks slightly ill at this): Um... Bailey: Yang? (Cristina walks over to the phone. Scene switches to SGH where Burke answers his phone in a hospital hallway) Burke: Talk me to Bailey. Cristina: It's me. Burke: I can't talk I'm waiting for a call from Bailey. Cristina (quiet): I'm with Bailey. Burke (does a double take): You're in Idaho? (Scene switches back to Cristina) Cristina: Yeah. Burke: You're breaking the rules. Cristina: Yes. (Scene switches to back to Burke. Richard walks up to him) Richard: Preston. What's happening with our heart? Burke: Hello, Dr. Webber. Tell me what I need to know about Denny's heart, Dr. Bailey. (Cristina has an oh crap look on her face) (Denny's pre-op room where Izzie is checking Denny's heart b*at again. She looks outside and sees Richard pat Burke comfortingly and walk off. Burke sees her and gestures for her to meet him outside) (Meredith is standing at a nurse's station filling in some paper work when Richard walks up and stands next to her) Richard: This program Derek looked into was a favor to me. Meredith (looks up disbelieving): Nice try. Richard: Sometimes Meredith, a favor is just a favor. This treatment won't cure your mother. It won't give her a new lease on life but it may give her more good days. I urge you to consider. (Mauer is lying in his own post-op room with Alex checking on him) Mauer: Lying here trapped in this flesh prison I've reached a grim conclusion. I'm a failure. (He turns to Alex) You know how that feels? Alex: Dude, if you only knew. Mauer: Even my manic attempt to put my failed novel behind me failed. Time for a plan B, I reckon. Time, indeed. Perhaps I shall play the cello. Alex: We make a mistake here and people die. It happens all the time. Mauer: All the time? Alex: There's a lot. Mauer: This is part of the hallucination, right? Alex: My point is we all have set-backs Mauer. But I'm a doctor and you're a writer. We don't have a plan B. (Richard and Audrey walk into the room. Audrey walks up to Mauer's bedside) Mauer (jokingly): Call Security! (Audrey just takes his hand and smiles at him) Richard (to Alex): Have you determined a course of treatment for the mercury poisoning, Dr. Karev? Alex: Yeah the patient has been administered a chelator called British Anti Leukocyte which will absorb the mercury over the next several days. Richard: Good work doctor. (Richard leaves the room) (Helicopter) (Cristina and Bailey are sitting in the same spots as they were before. Cristina is caught staring at Bailey's stomach again) Bailey: Yang. (They look at each other for a bit) Cristina: You know what's wrong with having an 80 hour limit? It protects the weak. It levels the playing field. Which not only sucks. It's, it's dangerous. Bailey: 80 hour work week. That's what's on your mind? (Cristina looks down) I thought about it. Not keeping it. Cristina: You did? Bailey: My husband and I ... we tried for years but still when that stick turned blue ... Well you can't work the way we work, you can't want the kind of careers that we want and not take pause. I took pause. Cristina: You paused? Bailey: I paused. I paused a very long time. Cristina: So why did ... Bailey: I sat up one night. Middle of the night ... and I knew I could do this... I still don't know how I'm gonna do this, but ... I knew I could do it. You just have to know and when you don't know then no one can fault you for it. You do what you can, when you can, while you can. And when you can't, you can't. (Denny's room) (Izzie is standing in the room waiting for Denny to wake up) Denny: You're stalking me. You're a stalker. (Izzie turns around to face him) Izzie: Well, can you blame me? Denny: So it's bad. Izzie: You have time. Denny: Liar. Izzie: Fine, there's no time. Denny: Well that's just spiteful. ... I didn't get the heart. Izzie (shakes her head slightly): You didn't get the heart. (Seattle Scenes) (Bex's room) (Bex is sitting up on her bed by herself looking fairly happy. George enters the room) George: Hey. Bex: Hey George. (He drops himself down on the bed) George: Hey, I just, I just wanted to check in on ya. Bex: Heard my parents weren't too happy with you. George: Nope. Bex: Thanks for telling me. For making them tell me. George (nods): You know um there are people that you can talk to. I can if you'd like... Bex (interrupts): I know. ... ... George, do I have to be a boy now? George: No. No. Bex: But I can if I want to. George: Yeah you can, if you want. Bex: Hey, could you, would you bring me some scissors? (George nods) MVO: Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? (Meredith is waiting against a wall on the hallway for Derek who comes out an elevator and stops in front of her when she calls out his name) Meredith: Derek. Derek: Hi. Meredith: Tell me about the program. MVO: It's not a day on a calendar. Not a birthday, not a new year. (Izzie is standing in front of the hospital entrance with Denny who is sitting on a wheelchair being pushed by a nurse) Izzie: Denny, I'll see ya. Denny: Goodbye Dr. Stevens. (The nurse pushes Denny out the sliding doors. Izzie starts heading back more into the hospital when Alex comes up to her) Alex: Hey. (Gestures to Denny) He's leaving? Izzie: Didn't get the heart. Alex: Sorry. Izzie: Yeah. Alex: He's a good guy. Izzie: Yeah, he is. (Izzie stops and looks outside through the doors and sees Denny standing up. He nods towards her and starts walking off) MVO: It's an event, big or small, something that changes us. Ideally it gives us hope. (Bex's room where Bex is sitting on a chair holding a mirror and looking in it while George cuts her long hair off. Mr. and Mrs. Singleton enter and George stops. Mrs. Singleton walks in and holds out her hand to George. George hands her the pair of scissors and heads out. Mrs. Singleton continues cutting Bex's hair. George watches from the doorway) MVO: A new way of living and looking at the world. (Derek's trailer) (Derek sits on an outdoor chair nursing a beer, his trout cooks on the BBQ. Addison exits from her car) Derek: I'm cooking the trout outside. Addison: Thank you. (She walks up the stairs to the veranda and sits on an empty chair next to Derek) Addison: Oh. (relaxes) ... There is a land called 'passive-aggressiva' ... and I am their queen. Derek: That's all I'm saying. Addison (she takes the beer from him and takes a sip): So what? With Meredith? Am I just supposed to wait it out? Wait until it passes? Derek: That'd be good. Addison (nods): I still hate the trailer. (She hands him back the beer) Derek: As is your right. MVO: Letting go of old habits, old memories. (SGH Parking lot) (Cristina is standing, waiting outside for Burke. Burke walks out and up to her) Cristina: I wasn't gonna have it. The baby. And you don't get to be mad about that, we barely knew each other. I was an intern and there was no way I could even... Burke (interrupts): I'm not mad. Cristina (appraises him): You're not? Burke: No. I just wanted to know. (Cristina half nods) I wanna know things. MVO: What's important is that we never stop believing, we can have a new beginning. (Meredith's house, bathroom) (Izzie and George are sitting on the floor sharing a pizza. Doc is heard barking loudly. You can also now here Meredith yelling at the dog about her laundry. Izzie and George look up at this. Meredith opens up the bathroom door) Meredith: You don't eat laundry. Bad dog! Bad dog! Bad! (She closes the door with arms filled with laundry) MVO: But it's also important to remember that amid all the crap are a few things really worth holding on to. (Meredith throws down her laundry and sits next to George who opens up the pizza box for her. Izzie resumes reading her magazine and Meredith takes a slice of pizza and starts eating it)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x13 - Begin the Begin"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x14: Tell Me Sweet Little Lies Original Airdate: 1/22/2006 Written by: Joan Rater, Tony Phelan Directed by: Adam Davidson (SGH) (Derek is in the OR performing surgery on a patient. The gallery is empty aside from Meredith who is standing by herself) MVO: As doctors we're trained to skeptical because our patients lie to us all the time. The rule is: every patient is a liar until proven honest. (Cristina enters the gallery and gives Meredith a wry smile and Meredith smiles back. Cristina walks up to the window to peer and looks down into the surgery) Meredith: Why aren't you prepping for rounds and stealing all the good cases? Cristina: Well why aren't you prepping for rounds and stealing all the good cases? Meredith (shrugs): No reason. Cristina: No reason? MVO: Lying is bad. Or so we're told. Constantly, from birth. Honesty is the best policy. (Cristina sits down next to Meredith) MVO: The truth shall set you free. I chop down the cherry tree. Whatever. Meredith: I'm waiting for McDreamy. Cristina: I'm avoiding Burke. Meredith: Why are you avoiding Burke? Cristina: He thinks I moved in with him. Why are you waiting... Meredith (interrupts): McDreamy is doing me a favor. Burke thinks you moved in with him? Cristina: Wait you're calling him McDreamy again? (Cristina shakes her head at Meredith) MVO: The fact is, lying is a necessity. (Trauma room where Meredith is sitting on a table as Derek draws out her blood) Meredith: Thank you for doing this. With the needles and the blood. They won't accept her without a full family history. Derek: I'm happy to get your mom into the clinical trial. Even with the needles and blood. (He stands up and they 'gaze' into each others eyes) Derek: All done. How's that feel? MVO: We lie to ourselves because the truth, the truth freaking hurts. Meredith: Feels good. (Cristina is standing in a hallway waiting for Meredith. Meredith walks up to her and they start walking down the hall together) Meredith: Burke thinks you moved in with him? What does that mean? Cristina: Ok it's not important. You're calling Derek, McDreamy again. Meredith: It's nothing. Cristina: All right, what are you doing? Meredith: What are you doing? Cristina: Stop repeating what I say. Meredith: Stop asking me questions. (They stop and look out over the railing of the mezzanine and hear some banging. George is banging on a window of the hospital with Izzie standing next to him, arms crossed holding a leash with Doc on it.) George (yells): Cujo has to go! (Intern locker room where the interns are getting for rounds. Meredith is sitting down on a bench, already in her scrubs with Doc laying next to her) Izzie: He peed on my bed. My bed, Meredith! Meredith (defensive): He's our dog! George: No, he's not my dog. You two bought him, without even asking me. Meredith: We rescued him from certain death. (She pouts) Come on you guys. George: I'm putting my foot down. Either the dog moves out or I do. Foot. Down. Now. Me or the dog, which is it? (Meredith looks down at Doc contemplating and then back up at George) George (shocked): You hesitated! She hesitated! Izzie: You hesitated?!? Meredith: I didn't hesitate. I was thinking. George: You have to think about it, fine! I'm moving out right now. (He heads to the door to exit the room but as he opens the door, Bailey is revealed standing there. He swivels back towards his locker) George: Later. I'm moving out later because right now I have rounds. (Bailey walks into the room) Bailey: Tell me that is not a dog. All: It's not a dog. (Bailey's pager goes off) (Bailey is standing outside the emergency double doors with Cristina, George, Meredith, Alex, and Izzie. An ambulances double doors open up and paramedics start wheeling out a patient, including Tony the paramedic) Tony: Rick Freeark. 29. Severed 3 fingers on his left hand. Controlled the bleeding in field. Vitals sab. Gave him 5 of morphine on the way in. (They all start wheeling the patient down the hallway) Bailey: The fingers? Tony: Had some trouble retrieving them so we took off. Rich behind us found them. They're iced and ready to go. 10 minutes out. Bailey: Continue with IV fluids and start a course of antibiotics. (Bailey stops Cristina) Bailey: Yang, wait outside for the fingers. (Cristina heads back out) (Rick's trauma room) Rick: You can sew them back on right? Cause they sewed that guy's penis back on after his wife chopped it off, right? Bailey: Penises and fingers. Like apples and oranges. George: How did it happen? Rick: I was loading my gear onto my truck for a gig and my hand got caught in the lift gate. Alex: You're a musician? Rick: I play the friggin guitar. (to Bailey) You can sew them back on right? It's not that big of a deal right? Oh dude I better not be out of the band. (Trauma room, where now there are only scrub nurses and Derek checking on Rick's fingers. Cristina enters the room with Rick's detached fingers in a towel) Derek: Well the cuts look clean. That's good. Clean and severed makes reattachment easier. I'm not going to lie to you, if the surgery is successful; we're looking at a long recovery. Lots of physical therapy. (Rick looks pained at this) You smoke? Rick: Why? Derek: Cigarette smoke constricts the blood vessels. I've seen really good grafts fail over a few cigarettes. Rick: So what are you saying? I, I smoke a cigarette after my operation and boom my fingers fall off? Cristina: No first they turn black and necrotic and then they fall off. (Derek smiles apologetically at Rick) Rick: Well I don't smoke, so ... Cristina (holding up one detached finger): Really? Cause judging by the nicotine stains, your fingers do. (Rick looks alarmed at the idea of having to give up smoking) (George is rifling through some charts at the nurses station when he hears a voice call out from a patient room) Sophie: Anybody out there? Hello! (George sht a glance to Nurse Debbie who is also at the desk) Debbie: Don't look at me! She had hip replacement surgery a month ago and was discharged last week. George: Then why is she still here? Debbie: Because I am not a bouncer and this is not a nightclub! I am doing what I can (Richard walks up and Debbie walks directly to him) with extremely limited staff and resources and if you have a problem with that take it up with 'Chief!' (She storms off. You can hear Sophie sing now) Sophie: Don't know why, there's no sun up in the sky ... (Richard sht George a look) Richard: Mrs. Larson's got to go. George: If she refuses to leave what can I do? Richard: She's 78 and non-ambulatory. You have the upper hand here. Use it. (Bailey, Izzie and Alex walk up to them) Richard: Karev, can I talk to you for a second? (He and Alex walk off to the side and he hands him an envelope) Richard: The results of your medical board exam. Alex: Thanks. (Richard walks off as Izzie looks on curiously. George dumps a bunch of charts into Izzie's arms and heads off. Bailey looks on disapprovingly. Alex walks back up to Bailey and Izzie) Izzie: Aren't you going to open it? Alex: Yeah, I'll open it. (George is entering Sophie Larson's room. An elderly yet very vibrant and energetic woman) Sophie (sings): I'm weary, all the time. (George claps loudly) Sophie: Oh, thank you. Thank you. George: Ok, Mrs. Larson I'm Dr. O'Malley. Sophie: Oh an Irishman! I love the Irish. They have a sparkle. You can see it in the eye and the swagger. Come on Dr. O'Malley, show me the swagger. (George looks slightly uncomfortable but swaggers half-heartedly up to Sophie's bedside) Sophie: The eyes are right, but uh you'll have to work on the swagger. George: Mrs. Larson... Sophie: Call me Sophie. Now, be a doll and bring me a remote. (She holds up and shakes it in front of him) This one's busted. George: Sophie, I can't bring you a new remote because you are no longer a patient at this hospital. Now according to your chart you have a room waiting for you at the Sugar Maple Nursing Home. Sophie: I'm staying until my daughter's house is ready. She's converting her den into my bedroom. She's doing it a shade of pink. Now bring me a remote Irish. I'm going to sing until you get back. (She starts singing loudly) Can't go on. Everything thing I have is gone! (George holds out is hand and she slaps a remote into it) Stormy weather- George: Coming right up. (He leaves) (Trauma room where a young Asian woman named Yumi sits on a bed continuously hiccupping. Yumi's Coach, Mr. Kamaji is also in the room) Alex: Ah Yumi Miyazaki. 22. She presented this morning with persistent hiccups. Izzie: She was given 50 chlopromazine which stopped them for a while but then the hiccups returned so she needs a surgical consult to rule out esophageal perforation. Bailey: When did your hiccups start? Mr. Kamaji: A few days ago. She doesn't speak English. Bailey: Are you her boyfriend? Mr. Kamaji: Her coach. Alex: Oh she's an athlete. Mr. Kamaji: Ah, Yumi is a competitive eater. Izzie: Eating is a sport? Alex (nods): Miyazaki ... yeah, yeah. She's like a Rock star in Japan. Izzie: Again, eating is a sport? Alex (to Mr. Kamaji): Tell her I saw her on TV. Tell her that I'm an athlete too. I'm a wrestler. Mr. Kamaji (in Japanese to Yumi): The young doctor wants you to know he's a wrestler. I think he's flirting with you. (Yumi gives Alex an appraising look) Yumi (in Japanese to Kamaji): Tell him I eat little boys like him for breakfast. Mr. Kamaji (to Alex): She wonders how a wrestler got smart enough to be a doctor. Most wrestlers she knows are dumb. (Alex and Izzie smile. Izzie more of a oh my god smile) Alex: Just tell her that she hasn't been hanging around the right gyms. Bailey: How bout instead you tell her that persistent hiccup could be an indication of something much more serious. (To Alex and Izzie) Schedule an esophogram. Mr. Kamaji: Oh she's competing this afternoon at the 'Taste of Seattle'. Can't you just give her a stronger dose of that drug? It seemed to work. Bailey: Did the hiccups come back? Mr. Kamaji: Yes, but... Bailey: Then it didn't work. (She moves and starts to walk off, but stops suddenly clutching her stomach in pain) Izzie: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Be quiet. Izzie: Dr. Bailey, are you ok? (Bailey tries to shrug it off, but she still seems to be in pain) Bailey: All right somebody page Addison Shepherd. (Izzie moves off quickly while Alex stays with Bailey) (Bailey is lying down being given an ultrasound by Addison in an exam room) Addison: There he is. Heartbeat's strong. Since there's no dilation or effacement, looks like nothing more than Braxton Hicks. (Bailey sits up) Bailey: Except I know the mild concerned tone. I've used it myself from time to time. Addison: Sometimes false labor is the body's way of telling you to slow down. Bailey: I'm a surgeon. Addison: I understand the realities of your job but you need to understand the realities of your pregnancy and take it easy. Is there anything I can do to help? Bailey: Uh, yeah for starters you can help me get up off this table. (Izzie knocks on the door and enters) Izzie: Dr. Bailey. The GI lab has a couple of questions about Miss. Miyazaki's esophagram. Bailey: Well let's go. (Bailey walks out of the room) Addison: Dr. Stevens. (Izzie stops following Bailey) Addison: Keep an eye on her today. Watch out for any painful contractions. More than 5 in an hour. Anything that could indicate pre-term labor. (Izzie shakes her head) The favor is not for me Stevens, you know that. (Izzie nods and walks off) (Patient room where a middle aged woman named Naomi Cline lies on the bed looking very happy. Meredith and Burke are at the end of Naomi's bed. Tom Cline, Naomi's husband is also in the room) Meredith: Naomi Cline. 43. Had her tricuspid valve replaced 3 years ago with a porcine valve, sir. Burke: Ah Naomi, surprised to see you back again so soon. Pig valve usually holds up 10 to 15 years. But yours seems to be degenerating a little too quickly for my comfort. Naomi: Oh, heart valve, schmart valve. (excited) I got married Dr. Burke! (She laughs) I found him. My true love. My 'you jump, I jump'. (Burke and Meredith exchange looks. She holds out her hand to show her wedding ring) Look. Isn't it beautiful? And look, look at that beautiful, beautiful man. (Meredith and Burke turn around to see a middle aged balding man named Tom Cline.) Tom (uncomfortable): Heh. We ah meet in the grocery store. Naomi: Oh honey ... (She gestures for him to come be by her bedside) Burke: Oh, congratulations. It's good to see you so happy Naomi. Naomi: Yeah. (Tom comes by her bedside and Naomi becomes very affectionate) Tom: So Naomi's heart valve, what does this mean? Burke: Well there's an underlying cause for your wife's valve failure that remains undiagnosed. Theories, Grey? Meredith: Rheumatic fever, chronic use of migraine meds- (A large bark from Doc in the hallway interrupts her) or IV narcotics could all cause uh valve disease sir. Naomi (smiling): Oh I don't use drugs. Don't need them. I've got Tom, he's my drug. Aren't you baby? (Meredith looks weirded out by Naomi's happiness) (Meredith and Burke are walking out of Naomi's patient room walking down the hall) Meredith: She's high Dr. Burke. Burke (chuckles): Oh, she's in love. She's happy. Meredith: Nobody is that happy. She's on drugs. Burke (sighs): Run a tox screen but Naomi doesn't strike me as a liar. If she says no drugs, then it's no drugs. You develop a sixth sense about these things. Meredith (shrugs): Everybody is a liar. (Doc barks loudly again from the hallway) Burke: Dr. Grey, is that a dog? Meredith (shakes her head): No. (Derek is with Rick in the trauma room.) Derek: Look, we need to keep this elevated ok? Rick: Ok. Derek: I'll be back to check on you in a little bit. (Derek heads out of the room into the hallway where Cristina is dumping some waste into a waste bin. They start walking down the hall together) Derek: Yang, you were a little harsh in there. Cristina: He was lying. Besides your harsh is another man's refreshing. Derek: Well he's in shock. The man's lost his fingers and his only remaining habit in one day. We need to be compassionate. Cristina (looks upset): Compassionate? Derek: Yes. It's an emotion. Have you ever heard of it? CRISTINA: Oh, have you? (Derek looks shocked at Cristina's audacity) She's barely back on her feet and you've got her calling you McDreamy again. You know I was just telling the patient the truth. So you might want to try it sometime. (Cristina walks off) (George is standing on some shelves rummaging around a utilities room. Richard walks by but double backs when he realizes what George is doing) George: Remotes. (He pulls out a stack from a box) More remotes. Richard: O'Malley? George: I'm getting a remote for Mrs. Larson. Richard: What happened to the upper hand? George: Have you met Mrs. Larson, sir? Richard: Why do you think she's been here this long? In a private room? George (amused): She handled you, too? Richard: Well, she sang for the troops, you know. George: Can't we just keep here until her the room in her daughter's house is ready? Richard: No we can't. Not on surgical service, anyway. George: Oh, ok... but some other service? Richard: I'm the Chief, O'Malley. I can't condone turfing patients onto other services. You hear me O'Malley? (Richard walks off) (George is entering Mrs. Larson's room smiling) Sophie: I'm ah, I'm missing my program Irish and I don't see a remote in that hot little hand. George: I noticed that urine output has increased slightly since yesterday. I'm going to have to take you to gynecology to make sure you don't have a prolapsed uterus. Sophie: Honey my uterus hasn't been an issue for 30 years. George: I know, but it might be an issue now. ... You know one that could keep you here in the hospital for tests. (Sophie grins broadly and grabs the metal triangle in front of her for grip) Sophie: You drive, I'll ride gn. (Izzie comes to the door as George prepares to move Mrs. Larson's bed) Izzie: You're not moving out, George. George: Oh yes, I am. I gave an ultimatum. Threw dawn the gauntlet. I drew my line in the sand. Izzie: Well un-give, un-throw and un-draw. George: A man does not give an ultimatum and then back down. (Izzie helps George move the bed out of the room and down the hallway) George: Meredith had a choice and she chose the dog. Sophie (shocked): A girl chose a dog over you? George: Yes. Izzie: No. (Izzie and George stare at each other) (Hospital outdoor cafeteria. Alex is sitting at a table by himself looking over the envelope Richard gave him. There is also an unusually big pile of hotdogs sitting in front of him. He puts it away quickly as Cristina and Izzie come up and sit down at the table as well. Cristina also has a large plate of hotdogs) Alex: Are we gonna do this or what? Cristina: Yeah, let's go. (George comes up running with his own plate of hotdogs) George: Don't start without me. Alex: We're not gonna start if Izzie doesn't focus. Cristina: Izzie, come on. Izzie (ignores this): What should I put on the flier? George: I don't know. Cristina: Destructive, aggressive, uh hell dog available. George: That's not helping. Cristina: Fine, uh playful, protective puppy needs loving home. Izzie (approvingly): Good. (Meredith comes with her own set of food and Doc on a leash. She sits down) Meredith: Hey, George. George (looking down at his food): Don't talk to me! You'll only make me mad. You're gonna mess up my game and I'm in the zone. Meredith: Okay. (To Izzie): What are you doing? Izzie: Oh it's a flier that I'm gonna put it up... Cristina (yells): Izzie, come on! George (yells at the same time): Izzie! Izzie: Okay! Keep your panties on! (Izzie picks up a stop watch as George, Alex and Cristina all prepare to have a hot-dog eating contest) Izzie: All right. (George picks up one of his hotdogs) Cristina: No touching! (George puts down his hotdog making a face at Cristina) Izzie (struggling not to laugh): Go! (George, Alex and Cristina start wolfing down their hotdogs. Though Cristina opts for eating the actual hotdog meat first quickly, rather than bun and dog like Alex and George) Meredith (looks at the flier): You're advertising for a home for Doc? I said I would do it. Izzie: And you haven't and you won't. And I don't want George to leave. (She makes a funny face when she looks at George's eating) Meredith: Well at least put down he's not house-broken. (Izzie gives her a look) What? It's the truth. Izzie: Ok, so you want me to put the truth. Fine. (Cristina has now finished her hot dog meat and only left with the buns with she is now wetting down with water, mushing up and then stuffing into her mouth) Izzie: Vicious, hyper devil mutt is available. And will pee on the bed. Meredith: He's your dog too. We got him together. (She gives the others a weird look at their eating contest. It seems Cristina is winning, Alex followed closely behind, and George is pretty much screwed) Izzie: We got him together, please. He's not your dog either. He doesn't even know us. We are not home enough for him to know us. (Cristina stuffs the last of it down her mouth and shouts victorious. Though it's very muffled and hard to understand since she still has a mouth full of bread. Alex and George also protest muffled as she hasn't chewed it all down. Cristina stands up and starts gloating and making hand gestures) Cristina: You want to be! You want to be me but you can't be me! You want to be me... (She stops abruptly and looks like she's gonna chuck) George: Uh, oh. (She sits back down woozy) Izzie: Crap, she's gonna blow. (They all stand up quickly and run off, leaving Cristina sitting by herself trying not to throw up) (Patricia and Richard are walking down a hallway together. Patricia is reading from some papers) Patricia: The surgical floor has become a dumping ground for patients who aren't even surgical. We are overworked and exhausted. This makes for un... Richard (interrupts): The nurses again? Can't you do something about this? You used to be one of them. Don't you speak nurse? (Richard stops in front of the OR board) Patricia: That's why you don't get any respect from the nurses; surgical arrogance. Richard (huffs): I'm not arrogant. Patricia: You're klling them with that workload. Look at the board! (The board is absolutely filled) Richard: What? That's a beautiful board. Patricia: That's a crowded board. (She hands Richard the paper she was reading from) We need more nurses. (She walks off) (Exam room, where Yumi is lying down on a table undergoing an ultrasound. Izzie, Bailey, Alex and Mr. Kamaji are in there. Yumi is still hiccupping) Bailey: Mr. Kamaji, this is probably what's causing her hiccups. (Izzie points to a screen) A tear in the lining of her esophagus. Mr. Kamaji: Can you fix it? Bailey: Yes, surgically the sooner, the better. Mr. Kamaji: Ah, after the competition today her schedule is clear until March. Bailey: No her schedule is clear now. She can't compete today. And if she enjoys the taste of solid food, I recommend giving up the sport for something a little less aggressive. Say boxing. (Yumi just lies on the table looking scared and at Mr. Kamaji to tell her what's going on) Mr. Kamaji: I see. Could you give us some privacy please? (The three doctors all exchange looks and leave the room) Bailey: Karev, get the translator up here. Let's make sure she's getting the whole truth. (Patient room where Rick is. Cristina comes in and finds Rick's band mates and friends in the room, smoking and drinking) Band Mate: Busted Cristina: Put that out! Band Mate: Sorry. Cristina: I gotta prep you for surgery. Can you ask your friends to leave? (The band mates hug Richard and leave. Cristina starts prepping Richard and notices a carton of cigarette's on his lap. Richard notices this and holds up the packet defensively) Rick: I wasn't gonna light 'em. I was just holding them. Cristina: Ok. Rick: Seriously, take 'em. Throw 'em out. Cristina: No you hang onto them. Rick: Seriously, I wasn't going to smoke. Cristina: Seriously, I don't care. Do what you want. Rick: You don't think I'm going to be able to quit, do you? Cristina: No. I don't. (George is walking down the hall when he stops suddenly hearing a voice) Sophie (singing): I'm lonely all the time ... George: Oh no. (He looks over at the nurses' station where Debbie is standing) Debbie: Oh yeah. (George opens the patient door apprehensively, not wanting to believe it) Sophie: Irish. That nice lady doctor in gynecology said that since I had a hysterectomy back in '74, I don't have a uterus to prolapse. (George walks in and sits dejectedly on the couch seat in the room) George (to himself): Damn it. Sophie: I've been feeling a bit feverish. (George sits up quickly and grabs Sophie's chart of her bedside) A woman my age with a fever could be an indication of oh any number of awful diseases. George (disappointed): They took your temperature an hour ago. It was normal. I am sorry Sophie, but I'm going to have to call your daughter. Sophie: I'm telling you, I'm warm. (George walks over and places a hand on Sophie's forehead. She places her own hand over his and smiles) Sophie: That must be one hell of a dog. George: Excuse me? (George removes his hand from Sophie's forehead but she still holds onto it) Sophie: With those eyes and those nice firm hands ... A girl who chooses a dog over you ... It must be one hell of a dog. (George smiles at Sophie) (Burke and Meredith are walking down a hallway together) Meredith: Mrs. Cline's tox screen and titer both came back negative. I was sure I was right about that. Burke (chuckles): Gonna have to adjust your world view Dr. Grey. There are people out there that don't lie. Meredith: Maybe. Burke: Although frankly, the drug use would've explained the valve failure. (They stop walking in the middle of some stairs) Meredith: So how do we proceed? Burke: Schedule Mrs. Cline for a surgery. Meredith (nods): Ok. (Meredith starts heading back up the stairs) Burke: Do you want to come over for dinner? (Meredith stops abruptly on a stair and turns around shocked) Meredith: What? Burke: Dinner. Our place. Mine and Cristina's. Meredith (still shocked): Why? Burke: You're Cristina's best-friend. I want her to feel welcome to have friends in our home. Meredith: Oh, so she moved in with you? Burke: Yes. (suddenly confused) Didn't she tell you? Meredith (forces a smile): Of course she told me. Why wouldn't she tell me? She's in, right? Which you know, I think is great. Burke: Right. (He heads off down the stairs leaving Meredith standing looking confused) (Derek is standing in front of an elevator revealing Cristina standing by herself. He walks in. Cristina avoids looking at him) Derek: Just came from Mr. Freeark's room. He's convinced that he won't be able to quit smoking. Says that you agree. Cristina: No he asked my opinion. Want me to apologize? Derek: No I want you to go in there and tell him that you're wrong. That you're having a bad day. You're favorite uncle died of lung cancer and that every time you see a cigarette you freak out. Say whatever you need to say. Get him to believe that this about you not him. Because if he thinks he won't be able to quit, he won't. Then we shouldn't even do this surgery. Cristina: Fine. Derek: What is your problem? I'm your boss. What's the matter... Cristina (interrupts): No you're not my boss right now. We're in an elevator. That's your specialty right? McDreamy moments in elevators. Derek (warningly): Dr. Yang. Cristina: You know just for a moment, I'm not Dr. Yang and you're not Dr. Shepherd. You're the guy who screwed up my friend. The guy who drove her to get a dog she can't keep. The dog she only got because her boyfriend lied to her about his wife. Derek (interrupts): I never lied to her! Cristina: You know what I know a liar when I see one because I'm a liar. Fine you want me to lie to the patient. I'll lie. (The doors ding open and she leaves) (Alex walks back to the Yumi's exam room with a translator. He looks in the room but it's empty) Alex: Yumi? (He walks out and to the closest nurses' station) Alex: Hey, the translator is here. Where's the patient Miyazaki? Nurse: She left with her friend about 20 minutes ago. Alex: She wasn't discharged. Nurse: Sorry, we're short staffed. I assumed someone else had done the paperwork. (She leaves) Alex: Damn it. (Rick is in a hallway banging against a vending machine) Rick: Come on. Damn it. Uh! Uh. (Cristina walks down the hall and rushes up to him) Cristina: What are you doing out of bed? Rick: I gotta get a candy bar, man. Cristina: Uh, you're on morphine. You're about to have surgery and you can't eat. Mr. Freeark, please. (She tries to move him down the hall) Rick: My Dad's Mr. Freeark. He's gotta a comb over and ah, and an annoying wife named Kimberley so- Cristina (interrupts): Rick. Listen. Earlier I was out of line. Rick: No you got me to think. I don't want to be a guy, sitting in a bar with a stump for a hand. Having a smoke 10 years down the line bragging about how I used to play better than Dave Navarro. Cristina: Yeah, you don't wanna be creepy, bitter guy. Rick: Here's the thing. My last cigarette was this morning. Only, I didn't know it was my last cigarette. (Cristina and Rick are standing outside the hospital where Rick is having what looks like to be a very gratifying cigarette. Derek notices this and walks outside and hits against the glass) Derek (to Cristina): What the hell do you think you're doing? (Cristina has a look on her face that says 'oh shit') (OR where a surgery is being performed. Meredith and Cristina are both standing at the edge of the gallery with cups of coffee as all the seats are taken) Cristina: McDreamy's being McDouchey. He's making me stand at the back of the O.R while he re-attaches Rick's fingers. I can't even touch a retractor. I hate him. Meredith: Truth. Did you move in with Burke or not? Cristina (sighs): I told him I moved in with him. I'm keeping my old apartment. (Meredith turns around and gives her a look) Cristina: What? I sleep with Burke every night. My clothes are there. So I still have my apartment, big deal. Meredith: You have to tell him. Cristina: Actually I don't. Meredith: So I'm supposed to go to dinner at your fake apartment with the guy you fake live with? Cristina: Oh, I would never have you over to dinner with Burke. That's weird. Meredith (spins around instantly): This is my point. Stop with the lying. Cristina (whispers accusingly): And you're being honest? That last time you called him McDreamy you were all a-twitter with love. Meredith: We're just friends. Cristina: Uh huh. Meredith: We are. (Infectious Diseases department. George is there with Mrs. Larson talking with an ID resident who is looking through Mrs. Larson's chart) Resident: West Nile virus. Are you kidding me? George: No, look at her. She's feverish. She's much weaker than she was this morning. She could be de-compensating. (Sophie tries to look sickly and coughs) Resident: She's been here for a month, Dr. O'Malley. You seen any mosquitoes in this hospital lately? Sophie: Oh, such a handsome young man ... (The resident gives her a weird look) Those chocolaty eyes ... Resident (tries not to smile): In order to test you Mrs. Larson, we'd have to do a spinal tap. Sophie: Will you be doing it? Resident (tries not to look off put by the idea): Yes, ma'am. Sophie: Well then, call me Sophie. (The ID resident moves to George's position to wheel Sophie's bed down the hallway. George starts walking off) Sophie (calls out): Oh, nice meeting you, Irish! (She waves and George waves back. He walks off looking pretty smug with himself) (Naomi's room, where Meredith is talking to Mrs. Cline. She hands Mrs. Cline a chart) Meredith: So if you'll just sign here, we can go ahead and schedule you for surgery. Naomi: Oh, ok. ... You know you are a gorgeous young woman. Look at you. (She signs the chart) You should smile more. (Meredith fakes a smile and leaves the room. Meredith is outside the room, where she notices Mr. Cline, sitting on a chair out in the hall looking downcast. She walks up to him) Meredith: Mr. Cline. Tom (stands up): Oh, ah ... do me a favor. Meredith: Sure. Rom: Don't tell her you saw me. I'm, I'm not sure that I'm going to go in. She's ... she can be exhausting. Meredith (nods): Yeah, she's...really happy. Tom: You know I thought it was just ... falling in love, the wedding, but I was kinda hoping the honeymoon would be over by now, you know? (Meredith nods) I mean it's not normal, right? (He whispers) Nobody's that happy. (Meredith is walking up to the lab tech guy Jeffery at the lab desk) Meredith: Run another tox screen on Naomi Cline. Jeffery: On whose orders? Meredith: Dr. Burke's, of course. (She ticks the form for the test and pushes it forward to Jeffery) (Izzie is walking up to the on call room. She knocks on the door lightly and enters. Dr. Bailey is lying down on one of the bottom bunks) Izzie: I'm sorry to bother you. The paramedics are on their way in with Yumi Miyazaki. She collapsed at the 'Taste of Seattle' and is vomiting blood. (Bailey looks frustrated and sits up) Bailey: Damn fool, probably tore her esophagus in two by now. (She gets up and murmurs a bit, looking like she's in pain) Izzie: Are you ok? (Bailey takes a moment and then grabs her coat and starts making her way out of the room) Bailey: Complications of Boerhaave's syndrome. Go. Izzie: Pleural effusion, sepsis, shock. (Pre-op ward where Yumi is lying, breathing difficultly on a bed and Alex is checking her vitals. Bailey and Izzie are there as well. Including a few nurses. Mr. Kamaji is watching from outside looking anxious) Alex: Cyanotic with shallow breast sounds. BP is 76 over 42. Tachycardic in the one thirty's. Start her on high flow O2 and give her a second dose of saline. Bailey: Alright, let's get her to the O.R. Izzie: They're ready and waiting. (They're about to start moving Yumi's bed when she grabs Alex's hand pleadingly looking upset as if to say why is this happening? Alex looks down and the looks through the glass wall, shting daggers at the coach) Alex: The freaking coach should be the one this gurney. Bailey: Let's keep our eyes on the prize Karev. Saving this woman's life. (They start wheeling her out) Alex: I'll meet you guys up there. (Alex starts walking over to the coach. Izzie notices this) Izzie: Me too. (Izzie walks up quickly to Alex) Izzie: Hey, hey. What are you going to do? Punch him out? Alex: Yeah. Izzie: So you're going to kick his ass, get yourself kicked out of the program, before you have to open your board scores which is incase you failed. (Her beeper goes off) God, you're such an idiot. (She walks away) (O.R where Bailey is operating on Yumi. Alex and Izzie are helping and watching) Bailey: Dr. Karev, how do I begin the esophagomyotomy? Alex: Cut proximal and distal to the tear to expose the mucosal defect. Bailey: Correct. Then we'll move to debridement of the defect- (She gasps suddenly) Bailey: Oh! (She backs away quickly from the operating table, dropping the surgical tools and starts breathing in and out quickly) Izzie: Dr. Bailey, those aren't Braxton Hicks contractions. I believe you're in pre-term labor. (Bailey gives her an annoyed look) (Richard is entering the OR all scrubbed up) Richard: Why didn't you call me sooner? (Bailey just shakes her head) Alright, just get out of here. Bailey: I was gonna fashion a gastric patch. Richard: I taught you the procedure. Now leave. (Bailey sighs and leaves) (Meredith is walking up to the blood lab for the results but finds Dr. Burke already there. She walks up slowly to him) Burke: I got paged, Dr. Grey. Jeffery wanted to give me the results to the extensive blood work that I ordered. (He gestures to the forms Meredith filled in) You forged me signature? Meredith: That's really bad, right? Burke: Yeah that's really bad. Naomi is not on drugs. The tests came back negative. Meredith (amazed): They did? Burke: They did. Again. (Meredith shakes her head in disbelief) Next time you forge me signature, let me know. Save me a trip. Meredith: That's it? You're not going to yell and say 'Damn it Grey' and storm out? Burke (smiles): I will if you want me too. Meredith: No. Jeffery (walks up to them with another test): Dr. Burke, here's another one. Her serotonin level is through the roof. Burke: Dr. Grey, you took a detailed history? Meredith: Mmm Hmm. (They start walking down a hallway) Burke: When did Mrs. Cline develop asthma? Meredith: After the first surgery. Why? (Cut to Naomi's room where she is sitting happily on her bed. Tom is standing by her bedside. Burke and Meredith are in there as well) Burke: We found a carcinoid tumor in the lump. Very rare. Almost impossible to diagnose. It masks itself as a bunch of seemingly unrelated symptoms. Adult onset asthma, valve failure... Meredith: An increased level of serotonin in the blood. Burke: Which creates a false sense of euphoria. (Naomi smiles broadly) Tom: So, Naomi is not actually this happy. She just has a tumor? Burke: Exactly. (Meredith nods) Tom: Thank god. Naomi: You people with your tumors. I tell ya, I'm infected with love! (She laughs) Meredith: I'm sorry. Your body is lying to your mind. Naomi: Oh let the lie continue, (to Tom) right baby? Tom (chuckles uncomfortably): How soon can you cure her? Burke: Tomorrow, we can take the tumor out. If all goes well, Naomi goes back to normal. Tom: Alright, thank you both. (Burke and Meredith leave the room and walk into the hallway) Meredith: Thank you for not chewing me out for forging your signature. Burke: Thank you. (Meredith looks confused) I know it was probably you who convinced Cristina. She's very strong but she listens to you. If you told her to move in ... (He smiles briefly) Anyway, thank you. (Burke walks off and Meredith is left looking a little uncomfortable) Meredith: No problem. (OR, Derek is about to start performing surgery on Rick. Cristina is in the OR but watching right from the back) Derek: Now do you have any sensation in your left arm at all? Rick: Nope. (A doctor moves to shield Rick from watching) Actually, could I watch? (The doctor drops the covering so Rick can see) Rick: I wanna see every blood vessel and nerve I'm gonna screw up if I ever smoke again. Not that I'm gonna. Ever again. (He makes eye contact with Cristina) I smoked my last cigarette. (Derek notices this) Derek: Ok, let's get started. (Miss. Larson, Sophie's daughter is talking to Nurse Debbie at a nurse's station) Miss Larson: The nursing home said she never showed up. How exactly is that possible? Debbie: She wouldn't leave. Miss Larson: My mother is old and infirm. You couldn't make her leave? Debbie: Have you met your mother? Miss Larson: Fine. Where is she now? (George who is walking by notices Miss. Larson) George: Oh, hi I'm Dr. O'Malley. She's in the infectious disease service. Miss Larson: Infectious Disease. Since when does she have an infectious disease? George: She doesn't. She just doesn't want to leave. Miss Larson: Ah, she's unbelievable. George (smiles): Yeah she is. ... So is her room ready? I could go get her right now. Miss Larson: They've had the room ready for weeks. George: No, ah not at Sugar Maple. I meant at your house. Miss Larson: I'm sorry? George: The, the pink room ... (realization dawns) at your house. (Miss Larson just gives him a look) (George is entering Sophie's infectious disease room where she's watching television) George: Hi Sophie. (Sophie switches off the TV) Sophie: Irish, what a wonderful surprise! You won't catch my disease will you? George: No, I think I'll be ok... Sophie, your daughter was just here. (Sophie stops smiling instantly and gets teary eyed) Sophie: Nursing homes are for old people. I know I'm elderly. I do know that. ... But if I have to go that place, I'm afraid I'll become old. George (takes her hand and smiles): I don't think that's possible. Sophie (smiles): Oh. George: You know that I, I would keep you here if I could. Sophie: Oh, no darling you can't waste any more time with me. You have to go balls out with the dog. George: Excuse me? Sophie: So she chose an animal over you! So what? Women are fools. That's old news. But life's too short for you to give in, Irish. ... So fight, you fight for what's yours. (George leans down and kisses Sophie's hand and walks to the door) Sophie: Now that my friend is a swagger. (George closes the door and places his hand against the clear glass door. Sophie lifts her hand to return the gesture. George heads off) (Richard is in the O.R operating on Yumi with Izzie and Alex helping) Richard: I'll be closing the peritoneal cavity with zero chromic sutures. (Nurse Debbie knocks on the glass window of the scrubs room holding up a piece of paper) Alex: Chief. (Richard turns around and sees Debbie and then turns back to the operating table) Richard: Let's get back to it. Pull back on that retractor. Give me more suction. I'll need a sponge on a stick. (Debbie enters the O.R) Richard: What's going on? Debbie: I tried but you wouldn't listen. It is now 6.07. The second shift of nurses started at 6. They're not coming in. Richard: Do you have any idea what a sick out would do to this hospital? Debbie: I've already put in the call for temps. (She puts down the paper she was holding on a table nearby) Richard: What's this? Debbie: Official notification. We go on strike in 10 days. (Yumi's post-op room where she is lying on a hospital bed. Alex is writing in her chart and Izzie is checking on her) Alex: You're doing good Yumi. You're doing just fine. (Yumi speaks Japanese) Izzie: We should get the translator back up here. She doesn't understand what's going on. (To Yumi) We'll be back. (They head out of the room where they run to Mr. Kamaji in the hallway) Alex: What the hell are you doing here? Mr. Kamaji: I never would've ... I thought she would be fine. I'm sorry. Alex: Don't tell me. Tell her. Tell her how her career is over because of you. (Alex steps aside so Mr. Kamaji can walk in. Mr. Kamaji walks in slowly and bows deeply in apology and shame. Alex looks back at Izzie who nods. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out the envelope Richard gave him. They move away from the door) Izzie (pats Alex on the back): Way better than punching him out. Alex: Hey uh ... can you (he holds out the envelope to Izzie) Izzie (takes the envelope): You want me to open it? Alex: Yeah, yeah you know it's just, I can't. Izzie (she tries to hand it back): I shouldn't, I mean I... Alex (interrupts): Look you already think I'm an idiot. It won't be any great shock. (Izzie sighs and opens the envelope. She pulls out the letter and reads it. She puts the letter in front of Alex) Izzie: Congratulations. (Alex grins at her and looks down at the letter) You are not an idiot. Except when you're being an idiot. (Izzie walks off) (Cristina is checking on Rick's fingers in his patient room. She walks out the room where she runs into Derek) Derek: How's he doing? Cristina: Ah jonesing for a cigarette but I'll think he'll make it to the end of the day. Derek: Good. ... I was being nice to her. Cristina: Ok. Derek: I can be nice without being ... (he gestures) Cristina (disbelieving): McDreamy, I know. Derek: I really can. Cristina (still disbelieving): Ok. Derek: Ok then. (He walks into the room) (A nurse is pushing Dr. Bailey dressed to go home in a wheelchair down a hallway. Addison is walking beside her and they are being followed the 'gng' Cristina, Izzie, Meredith, Alex and George) Addison: Bed rest at home until the baby comes. You do know what bed rest is don't you Miranda? Bailey: Yeah hell. (She's being wheeled backwards into an elevator) Izzie: Hell with TV and books. (She hands Bailey a present) Here it's from all of us. (Bailey takes it grudgingly. They all smile at her from outside the elevator. They elevator doors begin to close, but Bailey stops it with her foot) Bailey: I may be 47 months pregnant (The group looks apprehensive as they were about to walk off. Addison has already walked off) I may be on bed rest. I may not be able to see my own feet but I am Dr. Bailey. I hear everything. I know everything. I'm watching each and every one of you. And I will return. (The doors close) (Richard is wiping the OR board clean himself. Burke is standing near the stairs watching him. Derek walks up to Burke) Derek: Strike? Burke: Strike. Richard (turns around): You are all a bunch of arrogant surgeons. (He walks off. Burke and Derek exchange looks) (Cristina walks into an empty gallery except for Meredith who is on her mobile) Cristina: Hey. Meredith: Hey. (She hangs up) That was Izzie. She refuses to take the dog home. Cristina: Mmm Hmm. (She sighs and sits down in front of Meredith) Fine, if you want me to tell Burke I didn't move in I'll tell him. Meredith: No don't. Cristina: What? Meredith: Don't tell him. At least not right now or tonight. (Cristina sighs in relief) I just mean wait. It can wait. (Cristina nods) I lied about Derek. We're not just friends. I mean, I'm not. He's still McDreamy. (Cristina stands up and rubs Meredith's arm comfortingly) Cristina: I know. (She walks out of the gallery) (Intern locker room, there is a notice board showing a flyer for Doc. George walks in and sees Doc lying down on the floor. In fact there are a lot of fliers advertising Doc. Meredith is sitting dressed to go home in front of her locker. George sits down next to her) George: You don't get to choose. Meredith: Huh? George: I know you've been going through a bad time. I know you miss Shepherd. And I know that your life has admittedly been pretty unpleasant these days. You get points for breathing in and out. You get to be a little selfish. But you don't get to choose a dog over me. ... I'm George. I sleep down the hall from you. I buy your tampons. I have ... held your hand every time you've asked. I've earned the right to be seen. To be respected. To not have you think of me as less than a dog that you got at the pound. ...So, I'm not moving out. Whether you like it or not, I'm staying. (Meredith just looks at him) MVO: No matter how hard we try to ignore it or deny it. Eventually the lies fall away. (Cristina is sitting up-right looking hesitant on Burke's bed. She sighs and lies down next to Burke who wraps his arms around her) Burke: I'm glad you moved in. Cristina: So am I. MVO: Whether we like it or not. (Izzie, Meredith and George are exiting out of Meredith's Jeep. Izzie hands George some Doc's toys while Meredith gets Doc out from the back) Meredith: Ok, Doc. Let's go. (They're in front of Derek's trailer. Derek and Addison out and meet them. Meredith looks upset) Derek: Hey Doc. Hey buddy. Welcome home. Addison: Hey. He's beautiful. (They start patting Doc) Izzie: I brought his toys. George: And his food and water. Meredith: Here. (Meredith hands the leash over to Addison) Meredith: Thanks for doing this. I know it's a lot to ask. Addison: It's all right. It's just a dog, right? Come on Doc. (She walks away and takes Doc into the trailer) Izzie (to Meredith): Ah, we'll just wait by the car. Meredith: Ok. (George and Izzie walk back to the car) So he ah chews everything. So don't leave anything out. (Derek nods) He hates cats and small little yappy dogs. Oh (she shakes her head) not house broken. Derek: Oh! Meredith: Probably should've told you that. Derek: Yeah. (They stare at each other for a bit) Meredith: You don't have to do this you know? Derek (nods): What I got, I got all this land. It's just going to waste. (Meredith nods) Meredith: Derek. Derek: It's just a dog. It doesn't mean anything. He'll be a fine. (Meredith forces a smile) Meredith: Yeah. Ok. Goodnight. Derek: Goodnight. (Meredith turns back towards her car) MVO: But here's the truth about the truth. It hurts. (Derek looks on after her for a bit and then heads back into the trailer) MVO: So we lie.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x14 - Tell me Sweet Little Lies"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x15: Break on Through Original Airdate: 1/29/2006 Written by: Zoanne Clack Directed by: David Paymer (SGH) (The floor of SGH where there is a thick red line) MVO: In surgery there is a red line on the floor that marks the point where the hospital goes from being accessible to being off limits to all but a special few. Crossing the line unauthorized is not tolerated. (SGH Entrance) (There is a large group of nurses protesting having formed a picket line in front of the hospital. They are chanting 'Fair hours, fair wages!' They're also holding various signs protesting. George and Izzie stand at the end of the picket line looking at it all) George: Can't. Can't, can't cross the picket line. I can't. Izzie: I don't like it either, George, but what choice to we have? Ok you took an oath to heal. You're a healer. George: Dad's a truck driver. Mom's a teacher. The evening news shows me crossing the picket line ... they'll outlive me just to pee on my grave. (Izzie gives George a weird look) MVO: In general, lines are there for a reason. (Cristina walks up to them) Cristina: Has there been any blood yet? Heard they brought in scab nurses. MVO: For safety. For security. For clarity. Izzie: I think the nurses know that we are on their side. Nurses: Don't cross the line! Izzie: Don't they? Cristina: Well we're doctors. We have sick patients inside. We have surgeries. Izzie: Ok. ... Then you go first. Cristina: Screw it. (She heads through the line and has food thrown at her which she attempts to fend off) Cristina: Yeah doing my job! Doing my job! Ha-ha! (She makes it into the hospital) Izzie (to George): They threw food at her! (George nods) Izzie: That is just wrong! Fine I'm going in! (She goes in and also has food thrown at her. She uses her bag to fend the fruit off. In the mass of nurses she walks past Olivia who screams at her) Olivia: Change your own bed pan Stevens! Izzie: Yeah, enjoy your syphilis Olivia. (She makes it to the front doors and squeals as one last one is thrown at her) Izzie (yells out): George, are you coming? George: No, I'm good here. (He just stands at the end of the picket line watching) MVO: If you choose to cross the line, you pretty much do so at your own risk. (Meredith is entering the Nursing Home where Ellis is. She walks up to the nurse on duty) Meredith: Good morning. Nurse: Morning, Meredith. Meredith: How is she today? Nurse: She's great. She really lights up when Dr. Webber visits. (The nurse turns to look into the living room and Meredith follows her gaze. There she sees Richard and Ellis having a good old laugh in the living room. Meredith appears shocked and confused at the closeness the two appear to have. Especially with all the not so subtle touches on each other's arm) Ellis (laughs): And I did not back down. Not in my OR. Not in front of those jock ortho idiots. Richard (chuckles): Yeah that was the last time Windsor called you little lady. Not even behind your back. Ellis: One day I'm gonna be the Chief of Surgery. First woman Chief! You watch! Richard: I don't doubt it Ellis. (Ellis laughs kinda evilly) MVO: So why is it ... Richard (takes one of Ellis' hands in his): Don't doubt it for a minute. MVO: ... the bigger the line, the greater the temptation to cross it? (Meredith seems weirded out and leaves the way she came) (Outside of SGH picket line where the nurses are still chanting and George is still standing in his stand still position) (SGH) (Patricia is walking down the hall with one of the temp nurses up to a nurses' station. The place looks a little bit like a disaster area) Patricia: And I can't say this enough charts are organized by room number. I know your temp nurses but there's no excuse for sloppiness. (The nurse nods and walks into an adjoining room. Patricia walks up to the nurses station where are Derek and Burke standing going over their own charts, complaining about the whole situation and how they can't do their job properly) Patricia (interrupts their babble): You know why I stopped being a nurse? Doctors. Doctors who don't know how to pitch in. (She walks off) Burke: Right. (Richard walks by and the two pounce on him) Derek: This place is going to hell. Burke: We need to find a way to compromise. (Burke walks off) Derek: We need the real nurses back. Richard: We need an additional 40 nurses to relieve the overtime that they're striking about. That's 2 million dollars a year we don't have. Derek: Have you checked under the couch? I always find spare change under the cushions. (Richard gives him a sour look) Ok, I'm silencing myself. (Richard and Derek part ways) (Cristina, Alex and Izzie are waiting for their new resident. Cristina sees a doctor walk by) Cristina: Yes, yes that's him. He's been published twice and he's flawless. Izzie: Oh, I don't want that guy. That guy's a freak. He doesn't let you speak in the OR. Cristina: Yeah, but he's flawless. (Another doctor walks by) Alex: I think it's him. What's his name again? Cristina: Oh yeah, mouth breather guy. But he'll let you do a procedure on your own if he likes you. (Meredith walks up to them) Meredith: What are we doing? Alex: Trying to figure out who they're going to pick for Bailey's replacement. (A loud booming voice sounds from the stairs) Sydney: Yang, Stevens, Grey, O'Malley, Karev! (A young, cheerful female doctor named Sydney Heron bounds down the stairs and makes her way up to them) Sydney: Here you are! I was looking for you guys in the locker room but you weren't there and then I thought well maybe my interns are looking for me too and then I come out her and here you are. (She chuckles) Yeah. (Cristina looks horrified) You guys look like a great group. (Meredith looks like she wants to laugh) Which is awesome. Because my horoscope said it's going to be a very challenging day and I was a little worried but no you guys ... yeah, you look like a good group. Which is great! Because we're going to have so much fun! Hi! (She holds out her arms and hugs Cristina) Sydney: Hi, First of all hi! Hi. (Cristina remains stiff and uncomfortable) Cristina: Ow, ow, ow. (Sydney backs up) Sydney: Ooh, am I hurting you? Cristina: Ah, no you're, you're touching me. Sydney (has an Oh look on her face but loses it quickly): I'm Sydney Heron. 4th Year and my philosophy just so you know is um is heal with love. (Alex and Izzie raise their eyebrows) Ok, so wonderful. So, Alex, Izzie, Meredith, Cristina and our little group is just missing- Cristina (interrupts): O'Malley. Yeah he's cowering behind the strike line like a little girl. Sydney: Standing up for what he believes in, that's my kind of little girl. Right? So ... The E.R needs somebody down there for a consult, does anybody ... who wants to ... Meredith: We get to pick? Cristina: Oh me, I'll, I'm on it. Alex: I'll help. (They both dash off quickly) Meredith: I have patients I need to check on. (She dashes away fast as well leaving Izzie by herself) Sydney: So it looks like it's just you and me, Izzie McGee. Izzie (force chuckles): Right, right, it's ah, It's ah Stevens. It's Izzie Stevens. Sydney: Oh, no I knew. I was just rhyming. Izzie: Oh, rhyming right, yeah. That's, that's neat. (Addison comes up to Izzie) Addison: Hey Dr. Stevens. Izzie (answers eagerly): Yeah. Addison: Could use you on a consult? Izzie: Ok. I'm on it. Absolutely. (She drops what she's doing and grabs Addison's file. They leave) Sydney: Yeah. (The pit where Alex and Cristina are walking with an ER resident) Alex: You need a consult for a rash? Resident: It's spreading pretty fast. I wanted to make sure nothing surgical going on. (Cristina moves back the curtain concealing a bed) Cristina: Mrs. Solomon, oh! (A young couple, Claire and Wade Solomon are making out pretty heavy on the bed. Alex looks amused. They stop when they realize the doctors are there) Claire: Oh god. Sorry. Sorry. Wade: We're on our honeymoon. Claire: Yeah. Alex (nods approvingly): Sweet. Cristina (sh*t Alex a disapproving look): Ah, can you um ... dismount? Please. Claire: Yeah. Cristina: Ok, great. (Wade starts moving off the bed) (Meredith is walking down the hall when she hears a person crying out) Grace: Len! (Meredith walks up to the door where she's an elderly woman named Grace Bickham lying on a hospital bed looking like she's in pain) Grace: Lenny is that you? (Meredith looks around for any doctors but she can't see anyone) Grace: Lenny! (She has trouble breathing and Meredith rushes in) Meredith: Are you ok ma'am? (She looks down at her name on the bed) Grace Bickham. Mrs. Bickham do you know who your doctor is? Grace: Len, Lenny ... Meredith: I don't see your chart here. Grace: Are you there? Meredith: I'm gonna need you to calm down for me, ok? Grace: Lenny? Meredith: Is that your husband? Grace: Oh, where is he? He was here. Meredith: I'm sure he'll be back any moment. You're having some trouble breathing. I'm going to need to run some tests. (Grace just moans) Nurse! I need a nurse in here! (Picket Line) (George is still standing outside, shaking his head and refusing to go in. The nurses are still chanting 'Fair hours, fair wages'. Nurse Olivia walks up to him holding her own sign looking resigned) Olivia: You can go, George. We won't throw donuts. George: Oh I can take the donuts. Olivia: Then what are you still doing here? George: Teachers strike of '03 mom walked the line for 48 days. I can't ... just, I can't cross. Olivia: So go home. George: I can't go home! You just don't go home. Yeah and get kicked out of the program. Lose my place as a resident. I'm a doctor, no way. Don't... Don't...I'm a union guy. (Olivia smiles broadly) Olivia: So that means ... George: Give me that sign. (George takes the sign from her and walks down the picket line. The sign reads 'Proud to be a Nurse'. The nurses applaud him) Olivia: Alright, Dr. O'Malley! (Grace's room) (Grace is having more trouble breathing than before) Meredith: Help! I need a nurse in here please! (A temp nurse named Angela comes in) Meredith: Her pressure's falling. She's stopped breathing. Angela: Whoa. Is she dying? Meredith: Are you a nurse? Angela: Um, I'm like a nursing student. Meredith: I need to intubate. Get me a 7 and a half tube. They're out in the hall. (Angela rushes out as Meredith prepares to intubate Grace. Angela comes back in quickly with a tray of stuff) Meredith: Not that one. The one that says seven five. (She hands Meredith the tube and she intubates. Angela holds a breathing bag and pumps it. Meredith checks Grace's heartbeat) Meredith: I'm in. Angela (smiles): Awesome. (Meredith gives Angela a look and she immediately stops smiling) (Exam room where Addison and Izzie are performing an ultra sound on a young black girl named Cheyenne Wood who is pregnant. Cheyenne's mother sits next to her) Cheyenne: Is that too much? Addison: It's a lot of extra amniotic fluid Cheyenne but your baby looks strong. Ms. Wood: Does that mean we can go? I mean appreciate you seeing us, I really do but this is a long drive for us and I can't afford to miss another shift. Addison (to Cheyenne): Unfortunately Ms. Wood the mass on the baby's neck is what's causing the build up in fluid. It's also obstructing her airway and the spine. Cheyenne: Mom. Ms. Wood: It's alright. Just listen. Addison: We're going to do a procedure called an exit surgery. Basically we do a C-section and only half deliver the baby. Cheyenne: Half deliver? Addison: That's right. We pull the head and the arms out but we don't cut the umbilical cord. Cheyenne: Why? Izzie: The tumor won't let air get to the baby's lungs. So we need the umbilical cord to keep her alive during the operation. It's kinda cool if you think about it. You'll be like your baby's life support machine. Addison: And then after the surgery if all goes well, we cut the umbilical cord and you'll be the mother of a healthy baby girl. How does that sound? (Cheyenne looks relieved) Ms. Wood: That sounds expensive. Addison: Well your doctor at the clinic is a former student of mine, so it's covered. (To Izzie) I'm gonna go head up and take this to the lab. (She leaves the room) Izzie: The hospital gets a write off the surgery. And it makes Dr. Shepherd look good, so ... Ms. Wood: So it's not charity? Izzie: It's not charity. What time's your shift? Ms. Wood: 6 to 6. Izzie: Graveyard. (Mrs. Wood nods) In Chehalis? Ms. Wood: Yeah. Izzie: It's 3 hours away. Better get going. (Mrs. Wood looks at her) I'll look out for her. (Cheyenne nods at her mother) (Meredith is walking down the hallway where she sees Richard standing in front of the OR board. She walks up to him) Meredith: Chief. Richard: Hello, Meredith. Meredith: Saw my mother this morning. Richard: Did you? How is she? Meredith: She's fine. Richard (uneasy): I'm glad to hear it. Give her my best. (He walks off) (The pit where Claire is now sitting up right on the bed with Wade sitting next to her on a chair. Claire and Wade are very touchy feely. Alex is there. Cristina is there also drawing a black line across her leg) Claire: Why are you... Cristina (interrupts): Oh I'm drawing a line to mark the borders of the infection. We'll watch it for a couple of hours. If it doesn't cross the line you'll get IV antibiotics. Wade: And if it does cross the line? Alex: Well it would mean the infection is aggressive. We'd have to do a muscle biopsy. Claire (stops giving lovey-dovey looks and looks concerned): You have to take out a piece of my muscle? Cristina (nods): Mmm Hmm. Claire: Well we're supposed to run a 10k tomorrow. Cristina: Oh, on this leg I doubt it. Alex: Can you tell us when you first noticed the rash? Wade: When we were climbing Rainer yesterday. (Sydney the cheerful Resident comes up to them) Sydney: Wow! You took the Emmons Glacier route? Claire: Please you can do that in an SUV. We did 'Liberty Ridge'. Sydney: Wow! That's hardcore. (She shakes Wade's hand) Hi. I'm Sydney Heron. These guys teacher. Claire (shakes her hand): Hi. I'm Claire. This is Wade. It's our honeymoon. Sydney: Wow, that's amazing. God, look at that rock. Cristina (annoyed): Ah did you sustain any trauma on the hike? Did you fall down? Or bang your leg against something? Claire: No. Wade: Oh, she cut her foot on some oyster shells at the beach a couple of days ago. (He turns to Sydney) We were windsurfing in 'Puget Sound'. Sydney: Oh wow sounds like you guys are going to need a honeymoon to recover from your honeymoon. (Wade and Sydney chuckle and Alex forces himself to chuckle. Cristina mean while checks Claire's leg) Claire: Ow. (Cristina continues checking) Claire: My leg's going to be ok though, right? Alex: Oh, yeah, yeah, it's probably just a simple skin infection. Cristina: Ah, no it's not. Look. (They all look closely at the black line. The infection has passed the line really fast) (Meredith is wandering down the hallway. Derek comes up to her) Derek: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Derek: Your dog's fine. Meredith: He's your dog now. Derek: Hmm. Meredith: I miss him. (Derek nods and is about to speak but Addison comes up and interrupts) Addison: He misses you too. Derek: Ah. Addison: You should come visit. (Meredith looks uncomfortable. Addison chuckles) The dog, I mean. Meredith: I'm walking away now. (Meredith walks off. Addison turns and faces Derek) Addison : So um I'm looking for a neurosurgeon to consult on a fetal spinal tumor. You know anybody good? (Derek chuckles) (Picket Line outside where the nurse's are marching and still chanting. George is marching with them, still holding his 'Proud to Be A Nurse' sign. Nurse Debbie, Olivia and Tyler are all walking behind George whispering to each other) Olivia: Don't ask George. Debbie: Why not he's a doctor? Go ahead. Olivia: Don't worry about it. Debbie: Just go ahead. (George notices this) George (to himself): I see whisper and point. I'm showing support, they whisper and point. (Olivia walks up to him) Olivia: George. George: What? Olivia: We need a favor. Debbie: Ava Jekins in PEDS, Room Forty-One, Fourteen. It's almost time to change her dressing and it's scary for her but if you sing the alphabet or the 'wheels on the bus' song she can handle it. (George looks mighty confused) Tyler: Mrs. O'Brien, Twenty-four, twelve. She'll have a major panic attck if they don't check on her at least once an hour. Olivia: And there's this guy in Twenty-nine, Twenty-four- George (interrupts): Hey, Hey, hang on! Hang on! (They stop walking near the side of the line) George: What you want me to cross the picket line? Olivia, Tyler & Debbie: Yeah. George (amazed): Why? Olivia: Because they're our patients too, George. (looks nervous) And we can't. (OR where Sydney is operating on Claire Solomon's leg. Alex and Cristina are helping and watching) Sydney: Anyone care to probe the wound? Cristina & Alex (at the same time): I do. Alex: I'd really like to try your method of healing with love. Sydney: I like the way you think Alex. (She hands him the scalpel while Cristina looks on annoyed) You do the honors. ( Sydney notices Cristina's look) Cristina, looks like someone needs to learn how to share. (To Alex) Oh, there just go ahead and slide it in. (A phone rings) Alex: Whoa. No resistance. Cristina (hisses to him): Let me see. (Cristina grabs the scalpel off him) Nurse (holds a phone up to Sydney): Dr. Heron. (Sydney listens to whoever is on the line) Sydney (into the phone): Yes? Cristina: Oh! No healthy muscle gives away that easily. Sydney: Oh my god. Oh this poor girl. (She pulls away from the phone and the scrubs nurse hangs up) Sydney: Ok everyone, we're locking down the O.R. All non-essential personnel must leave now. Cristina: Was that pathology? Is she... Sydney (interrupts): It's necrotizing fasciitis. Alex (amazed): The flesh eating bacteria? Sydney: In the flesh. (Meredith is entering Grace's room. Patricia is in there looking concerned) Meredith: Oh good somebody's in here. How's she doing? Patricia: You intubated her? Meredith: Yeah. Patricia (disapproving): You intubated her. Meredith (defensive): I had to. She was struggling to breathe. Her sats were in the 80s. She was in her room all alone. (She notices Patricia's look) What? Patricia: One of the temp nurses found the paperwork from her chart on the second floor. And... (Grace's friends are standing at the doorway of the room and are outraged) Agnes: You put a tube in Grace! Ruth: She put a tube in Grace? Eleanor: She put a tube in Grace? Patricia: Mrs. Bickham was diagnosed with end-stage COPD. She's on hospice. Meredith: End of life care? Patricia (holds out the chart with DNR on it): DNR. Do not resuscitate. (Ruth comes in and bangs her bag against Meredith's back. Meredith jumps and turns around startled) Ruth: You little schnook. You were supposed to let her die. (Meredith is surrounded by Grace's friends in Grace's room. Patricia has left the room) Eleanor: No machines, she said. Agnes: She did. I remember because her daughter Alice was there with her girlfriend... Ah She's a lesbian. (Meredith nods but looks uncomfortable) The daughter. Nice girls. But... Ruth (interrupts): Stop with the rambling Agnes. Make your point. Meredith: I'm sorry. (She walks out of their little surrounding circle and turns to face them) Meredith: Who are you, exactly? Mrs. Bickham's sisters? Agnes (chuckles): Oh no. No. (The other two shake their head) Her sister Rose died in '83. Ruth: May she rest in piece. Agnes: Influenza. Or croup. Eleanor: Only babies die of Croup! Rose died with a cold in her chest. Agnes: Pneumonia! Eleanor: Right, pneumonia. And there was her other sister, Harriet. Ruth: May she rest in peace. Agnes: They cremated her. Ruth: Gracie wanted to die. She made us all promise. Meredith: This really is something that I need to speak with her husband about. Eleanor: Lenny never talked much when he was alive. Good luck getting a word now. Meredith: Lenny's dad? Ruth: May he rest in peace. Meredith: But Grace said she just saw him. Agnes: Because she was trying to cross-over. Ruth: She almost died twice in the last month. Said she saw him each time. You ask me that's a little meshugena. Eleanor: It's not meshugena! He was waiting for her in the light. Agnes: Mmm Hmm. (Ruth rolls her eyes) Agnes (to Meredith): Which thanks to you, she can't reach now! (Eleanor nods) (George is still dressed in his normal everyday clothes walking quickly down the hospital hallway with a notepad. He sees the Chief opposite and darts to the side to avoid him) Richard: O'Malley, I need you to round all those 21... George (interrupts): I'm not here. Richard: Excuse me? George: I'm here but I'm not here. Richard (angry): You won't be anywhere in about thirty seconds if you don't... George (interrupts): Sir, all do respect, no offense intended. Ah but I won't cross the picket line. Richard: And yet somehow you're standing in front of me. George: Uh, yep well because some of the nurses want me to check on their patients and so I am but then I'm going right back out there to join them. Richard: You're a doctor! George: Yes sir ... but I'm also a union man. ... All do respect, no offense intended. Richard: Fine! (He starts to walk off) George (runs after him): Sir, while I have you here I'm supposed to tell you that ah Mrs. O'Brien in twenty-four twelve is allergic to chocolate but she pulls the allergy sticker off her chart every chance she gets. Richard: Wonderful. George: And ah that ah you're supposed to watch Mr. Roberts in Twenty-One Nineteen take and swallow his diuretics. Apparently he likes to hoard them under his mattress. (Richard stops walking and turns around angrily) Richard: Is that it? (George nods fast. Richard turns around) George: 40 to 50 hours of mandatory overtime is extremely... Richard: O'Malley! (George turns and runs off) George: Yes sir, I'm very sorry. No offense intended! (Waiting room where Cristina, Sydney and Alex are delivering the news to Wade about Claire's leg) Wade: What? Wait, flesh eating ... I mean this is some kind of joke right? She put you up to this. Cristina: Ah no it's not a joke. We have to amputate the leg. Sydney (disapprovingly): Cristina. (Cristina gives her a 'what' look) Wade: We're on our honeymoon. Sydney: I'm sorry Wade. I know this is scary but amputation is not the only option. Cristina: It's the only sane opt... (She stops herself and turns to Wade) Excuse me if we don't get this infection under control immediately she is going to die. Wade: But there is another option? Alex: Well we can try to save the leg by cutting out the infection. It won't be pretty but we might be able to keep it functional. (Cristina looks like she can't believe this is even being discussed) Sydney: Gold star for Dr. Karev. Wade: Ah I need to see her. Cristina: There's no time. Alex: By the time we take her out of anesthesia and put her back under ... you need to make a decision now. Wade: Uh I mean she runs marathons. This is our adventure honeymoon. It's, it's who she is. Sydney: Ok, then we'll do everything we can to save the leg. (Cristina looks upset and Sydney walks off. Alex follows and Cristina catches up to him) Cristina: You seriously think this is a good idea? Alex: I seriously think this is a way cooler surgery. (He walks off) (Cheyenne's patient room where Addison, Derek and Izzie are talking to her) Derek: Cheyenne, the prognosis is very good. So what we want to try to do is go in and get as much of the tumor out as possible during your surgery. Cheyenne: So my baby will be fine? Derek: Yes. Addison: You may be able to take your baby home by the end of the week. Cheyenne: That soon? Addison: Absolutely. She'll be all yours. Cheyenne: Oh. Ok. Derek: Ok. Now, if you and your mother have any questions Dr. Stevens will page me. All right? Addison: See you later. (Derek nods to Izzie and both he and Addison leave the room. Izzie picks up a book of Cheyenne 's bed table) Izzie: Oh, Shakespeare. Cheyenne: I was reading it to my baby. It's really homework for English. Was. The baby wasn't due for another few more weeks. And now I guess ... Izzie: No more school. Cheyenne: It's weird. It's like when you're in school ... you hate it. Izzie: Until you can't go anymore. (Cheyenne just stays silent) Izzie: Have you made any plans? Cheyenne: Plans? Izzie: Bought a crib? Called about child care? Looked into assistance? Cheyenne: Not yet. Izzie: You gonna live with your mom? Cheyenne: I'm supposed to be saving money to get my own trailer home. I don't know I guess I thought that I'd have more time. Nine months go by fast. Izzie (kinda teary eyed): Yeah, yeah it does. (She fakes a smile) I'll see you later. Cheyenne: Bye. (Izzie takes her chart and leaves) (OR where Sydney, Alex and Cristina are operating on Claire's leg) Cristina: So, Sydney, have you seen a lot of necrotizing fasciitis? Sydney: No have you? Cristina: If the infection moves to her bloodstream she'll die. Alex: If she wakes up without her leg she might wish she had. Sydney: Yeah, Dr. Karev is right. She's young, she's healthy, she's a newlywed. Cristina: And your treatment plan is based on? Cuteness? If she were an 80 year old man, you'd amputate in a heartbeat. Sydney: She's not 80. Where's your compassion? Cristina (disbelievingly): My, my compassion? Trying to save a patient from death is pretty compassionate. Sydney: I must say I'm disappointed in you. Why can't you be more like Alex? Cristina: Excuse me? Sydney: Yeah this guy, he's compassionate. He's warm. He's fighting with me to save Claire's leg. Alex: And we're going to win that fight. Sydney: Yes. (Alex laughs silently at Cristina but Sydney doesn't notice) Cristina: Ah excuse me, restroom. (She leaves the table) (Cristina is walking the hospital hallway looking for Burke. She finds him in front of the nurses' station outside the O.R board. She walks up to him) Cristina: Burke. Burke: Hey, I thought you were in surgery. Cristina: I was. Necrotizing fasciitis. Burke: No kidding? So why are you out here? Cristina: Because the new resident, ah she's the new Bailey. Except that she's the exact opposite of Bailey in the most absurd, horrifying, profoundly disturbing ways. Burke (warningly): Cristina. Cristina: I think the new resident is klling our patient. (Burke looks up at this) (Burke and Cristina are entering the OR with Sydney and Alex still operating on Claire's leg. There is only one other scrubs nurse in there) Burke: Dr. Heron is it? Sydney: It is and you are? Burke: Preston Burke. Sydney: Dr. Burke. Wow, no kidding. (She chuckles) I'm a huge fan. Burke: Thank you. I um I heard you had a case of necrotizing fasciitis and we don't see a lot of those around here. (Alex sh*t Cristina an annoyed look) Sydney: Hmm. Yeah well being a cardiothoracic surgeon I wouldn't think you saw any. Burke: Right ... well I was just curious about what protocol you were following here. Sydney: You were curious or Cristina was concerned? Burke: I'll hope you'll forgive the intrusion. It's nothing personal. (She nods) It's just that we haven't worked with you before and Dr. Yang wanted to be sure... Sydney (stops doing the surgery, turns around and interrupts): Dr. Yang wanted to be sure that perky little bimbo cheerleader wasn't in here trying to kll a patient. Am I right? Now with all do respect Dr. Burke I know you don't know me very well but I'm pretty good at what I do. And my patient is a 25 year old marathoner and I've told her husband I'm going to try and save her leg. So my plan is to stand here for as many hours as it takes to scrape away every last cell of necrotic flesh. Now when I'm done, if it's still spreading, then we'll take the leg. And if we do then our eager young intern here can hold the saw. Now unlike Dr. Karev, kindness and compassion aren't very high on her list of priorities but a little bone-saw action well maybe that will earn me some respect. (She turns back to the surgery) Am I right? Now Dr. Yang, you ready to scrub back in? (Cristina leaves the OR upset) (Richard is talking to Grace's three friends sitting in a small waiting room. Meredith is standing watching) Eleanor: You're the head of this whole hospital? Richard: Just the surgeons. Eleanor (pats Richard's leg): Well they should make you the head of everything. Ruth (mutters to Agnes): She's batting the lashes. You see that, she's batting the lashes. Agnes: Dr. Webber, the point is Grace wants to be with her Lenny. She misses him terribly. Meredith: You realize if I pull out the tube, Grace will die. Agnes: We're old magpie, not daft. Ruth: Pull the plug already. It's what she wants. Richard: Ladies, I appreciate your concern for your friend but we need to contact a durable power of attorney to sign the release. Eleanor: That's Alice. Call Alice. Agnes: Grace's daughter. Ruth: She's a lesbian. Eleanor: Well that's ok, isn't it? I mean she still could have the power of attorney. Richard: Ah fine. We'll need Alice's signature. Ruth: Good luck. She lives in Oregon. Agnes: Oh she could fax it. Richard: I'm sorry. We'll need her original signature. Eleanor (coos): Can't we just skip that part? Ruth (mutters to Agnes): Bat the lashes again. I think it was working. Richard: Excuse me, ladies. (Richard stands up and starts walking away with Meredith) Meredith: You're like the old lady whisperer. (Richard cringes) They really cheer up when you come around. Richard: Meredith, you understand that if the daughter shows up tomorrow and confirms she is DNR ... Meredith: I have to kll my patient, I know. Richard: How you doing? Something I can do for you? Meredith: Oh I'm fine, sir. I don't need any help from you. Thank you. (She walks off) (Izzie is walking down the hall dressed to go home past Cheyenne's room. She gets teary-eyed as she sees Cheyenne reading her baby Shakespeare) (Joe's Bar) (A group of nurses are camped out at the bar. A large portion of them toast George with their beers and wines) Olivia: To Doctor O'Malley! Nurses: Yeah! (They clink glasses. George laughs) (Cristina, Meredith, Izzie and Alex are having a drink at the bar. Joe is serving them) Cristina: She called me unkind. Unkind and lacking in compassion. In front of my boyfriend! I am not unkind. Meredith: I think I have to kll a woman tomorrow. I have to take out the tube that's keeping her alive. (Meredith turns to look at the person sitting next to her. Cristina throws a peanut at her) Cristina: Izzie. Joe: This is the part where you say what's wrong with you. (Izzie remains quiet) Cristina: Where are you going? Izzie: I have to go, I forgot something at work. Meredith: I have to kll a woman tomorrow. Cristina: And that is a problem, why? I mean if it's what she wants, it's what she wants! And that is not unkind or lacking in compassion. I'm a very compassionate person! I'm more compassionate than you Alex! (Izzie leaves the bar) Alex: Shut your pie-hole Yang. (George comes up to the bar) George: Hey Joe, can we have another round please? (Joe hands Alex a drink) Alex: Yeah give Nurse O'Malley a drink on me. George: Heh, what'd you say? (George turns to his nurse pals) Hey uh Karev just called me a nurse. (To Alex) That's the worst you could come up with. Or wait is that an insult? Or a was I supposed to be... (George is interrupted by a nurse walking by purposely spilling her drink onto Cristina's lap) Nurse: Whoopsies. Cristina: Are you kidding me? I will kll you, you know that? Nurse: Bring it on! Cristina: Oh, she, oh Bring it on! Okay Mama. Let's bring it on! Oh look at her spry! What you wanna cheer it out soccer mom? Nurse: Oh soccer mom! (They both start yelling at each other. Joe interrupts) Joe: Hey! Hey! Hey! Beating each other up and there's not gonna be anybody left to set your broken bones. (They continue to yell ignoring Joe) Joe: Hey! (Meredith takes Cristina's arm and pulls her away) Meredith: We were just leaving. Cristina: Yeah because I gotta go save lives! Nurse: Bye! (Alex is smirking at the whole situation while George pushes through the nurse crowd) George: Excuse me, they're my ride. Excuse me. (Cheyenne's room) (Izzie dressed from the bar, enters Cheyenne's room) Izzie: You're awake. Cheyenne: Hey, yeah. Baby jumps up and down on my belly all night. It makes me have to pee all the time. (Izzie nods) Cheyenne: You work long hours, huh? Izzie: Yeah, but I'm off work now. I ... I just came back to talk to you. ... I grew-up in Chehalis too. Cheyenne: Serious? Izzie: Serious. Um, Forest Park . Cheyenne (smiles): The trailer (Izzie speaks at the same time) park behind the church. Izzie (continues): Yeah. On Route 6. Yeah. Cheyenne: My friend Shelley lives up there. Izzie: Yeah my mom still lives there. Cheyenne: No way. Izzie: Yeah huh. (They both smile) ... ... Can you keep a secret? (Cheyenne nods. Izzie reaches into her pocket and pulls out a picture of a young girl and hands it Cheyenne) Izzie: This is my daughter. (Izzie is now sitting next to Cheyenne) Izzie: In the picture she's 6 but she's 11 now. She lived in Santa Barbara but they moved. I don't know where. But I know her name is Hannah and she likes pigs. Cheyenne (chuckles): Pigs? Izzie (smiles): Yep, she collects them. Like figurines and stuffed animals, you know. I think it's because her mom probably read her 'Charlotte's Web'. Cheyenne: I thought you were her mom. Izzie (tear eyed): I'm her mother but I'm not her mom. ... Look um I know that where we come from this kind of thing doesn't get talked about but I wanted you to know that there's more than one way to be a good mother. I wanted, I wanted better for her than I could do at sixteen. Cheyenne (teary eyed): I love my baby. Izzie: Of course you do. But you're reading her Shakespeare. (Cheyenne starts crying softly) When you're working 12 hour shifts at the diner like our mom's, you won't be coming home and reading her Shakespeare. (Izzie smiles down at Cheyenne's stomach) (Burke and Cristina's apartment) (Cristina enters the apartment and finds Burke sitting in the dark holding a trumpet) Cristina: Huh, I could hear you from six blocks away. Burke: Sorry. Cristina: Don't be. I like it. (She heads to the fridge) I'm just not sure how the neighbors would feel which by the way is not a thing someone lacking in compassion would be concerned with. (She grabs a beer and heads to the bedroom) Burke: How's your patient's leg? Cristina: Carved all to hell, but still on her body. (She comes back to the doorway) We're watching it overnight. (Cristina notices Burke seems a little upset) What's going on? Burke: Never in my career have I questioned a fellow surgeon in their OR. I never understood what the problem was, an intern dating an attending, until today. (Cristina gives him an upset look and leaves the room) (Sunrise) (Picket Line) (A new day and the nurses are still chanting 'Fair hours, Fair wages') (Hallway) (George is walking with Meredith who is taking down notes from George from the nurses) George: And don't believe twenty-five nineteen when she you she tells that she went to the bathroom. She just wants to go home. She just says she went to the bathroom and then she's back here 2 days later. Meredith: Got it. (Burke walks by them) Burke: Hey! I need sutures in 2602! George: Can't help ya! (Burke stops walking and turns back to George. Meredith walks to the nurses' station nearby and George realizing what he just said turns around horrified. Izzie watches from a nurses' station) Burke: What? George: ... Fair hours! Fair wages! Fair hours! Fair ... (He stops, Izzie looks amused) It's no offense. Burke: None taken. (Burke walks off and George walks up to Izzie who hands him a cup of coffee) Izzie: Hey. How's the strike going? George: Do you know? Did you realize how rarely doctors say thank you and please to nurses? How few surgeons even know the names of them? ... (He suddenly looks up) I shouldn't be seen talking to you. (George moves a little to the side) (Meredith is rifling through some files. A young woman and her partner come up to her. Unbeknownst to Meredith, this is Alice, Grace's daughter) Alice: Excuse me. I'm looking for Richard Webber. Meredith: Can I help you? Alice: My name is Alice Bickham. (Meredith looks up instantly) I'm here about my mother, Grace. Meredith: Sure, um ... come with me, please. (She walks off and Alice and her girlfriend follow her) (Mrs. Wood comes up to Izzie, angry) Mrs. Wood: You said you would look after her. Izzie: I'm sorry? Mrs. Wood: You told me to go to work and said you would look after her. Izzie: Miss ah Wood can you ah just follow me? (She walks a few feet away from the nurses station so George can't hear.) Mrs. Wood: She's a kid you know? She's scared enough without you putting ideas in her head. How do you tell a scared kid to give her baby away? Izzie: I didn't tell her. I didn't advise her. I didn't pressure her. I just ... talked to her. (George is watching from far) Mrs. Wood: You're not a shrink! You're not her mother. She's my kid and you crossed the line. Izzie: I'm sorry. Mrs. Wood: No you're not sorry. You're superior. So what you're a big sh*t doctor and you get to judge us? You get to tell my kid how to live her life? Izzie: Cheyenne is smart. She's smart and she's thoughtful and she can have more. She can have more than a trailer park and a graveyard shift at a truck stop diner. Don't you want that for her? (Mrs. Wood glares at her) I mean if you can get past the fact that I'm superior and that I'm judging you and that I'm telling you what's best for your family. If you can just get past all of that, isn't it possible that I'm also right? (Izzie walks off) (Post-op room where Claire is recovering from her surgery. Alex and Sydney are in there. Wade is sitting at Claire's bedside) Sydney: Pretty spectacular recovery Claire. Claire (groggy): Really? Do you think it's going to be ok? Sydney: I think we got almost all of the necrotic tissue. A few times in a hyperbaric chamber and I'm thinking you'll be out of the woods. (Wade nods) Claire: Thank you for saving my leg. Sydney: My pleasure. (Cristina watches from the doorway) Now Dr. Karev here will explain the hyperbaric chamber. Dr. Karev. Alex: Thank you Dr. Heron. A hyperbaric chamber... (Sydney starts making her way out and passes Cristina) Sydney: I'll take that apology any time. (Cristina sighs) (Grace's room where all of Grace's friends are, Alice, her girlfriend, Meredith and Richard are standing around Grace's bed. Alice signs the form and hands it to Richard) Richard: Thank you. Meredith: So, I'm going to give her a sedative which will ease her discomfort and then I'll remove the tube. (Alice nods) Ok. Alice's girlfriend: Are you ready? Alice (nods): Yes. (Meredith is about to inject the sedative) Alice: Wait. (Meredith stops quickly almost as she was hoping Alice would stop it. Alice leans forward and kisses her mother on her forehead) Alice (whispers): Goodbye mommy. (Agnes pats her comfortingly) Oh ... do you want to... Agnes (interrupts): Oh no. No we already said our goodbyes. We just wanted to be here when Grace crossed over. (Meredith looks down upset. Alice nods) Alice (to Meredith): Ready. (Meredith moves to inject the sedative but Richard puts a hand her shoulder to stop her) Richard: I can take care of this. Meredith: I...I did it. I should undo it. (She injects in the sedative and turns off the life support machine) Alice's girlfriend: How long? I mean before ... Meredith: It can take a while. (Meredith starts removing the tubing from Grace) (Burke is writing in a very roomy medical supplies closet. Cristina enters) Cristina: She wants me to apologize. Burke: You crossed the line. Cristina: I'm not apologizing. Burke: You made me cross the line. Cristina: Oh, like I can make you do anything! (There is a bit of a silence) Burke: It's not your fault. It's mine. I'm your teacher. I'm supposed to be. But you came to me as your boyfriend and I responded that way. (Cristina gives him a look but she knows he's right) Cristina: I'm not used to being wrong. Burke: I know. But you're an intern. Second guessing a resident is not your job. (Richard and Meredith are standing outside Grace's room) Meredith: How long has it been? Richard (looks at his watch): 2 hours and 17 minutes. (Meredith nods) Meredith: I saw you there. At the nursing home with my mother. Richard: Oh. Meredith: They said you go to her 3 times a week. Richard (nods): Whenever I can. Meredith: Why did you keep it a secret? Richard (sighs): I don't know. Would you like me to stop going? (Meredith avoids the question) Meredith: I'm gonna go check on Grace. (She stops at the doorway of Grace's room) Meredith: Do you think she's lonely? My mother? Richard: Yeah, I do. (Grace's room where Grace's friends, Alice and her girlfriend, Richard and Meredith all keep a close watch over her) (OR where Addison and Derek are performing the surgery on Cheyenne's baby. Izzie is there helping them. Izzie cuts the umbilical cord and Addison takes the baby out. She hands the baby to Izzie who takes the baby girl to the side and rests her down a lined table. She smiles at the baby) (Grace's room where Grace is breathing very shallowly. All of the family and friends are touching and comforting Grace. Grace suddenly stops breathing. Meredith watches) Ruth: May she rest in peace. (Agnes struggles not to cry and puts an arm on Ruth's shoulder to comfort her. Eleanor rests her head against Agnes) Meredith: Time of death (she clears her throat) 12:42. (Meredith looks upset and heads out of the room) (Meredith is exiting out of the room almost in tears and looking like she's having difficult breathing. Derek from afar notices Meredith who has her back to him and is about to walk up to her. He looks confused as she rushes into the nearest linen closet) (Interior of the linen closet where Meredith is sitting down taking large gulping breaths. It seems like she's almost hyperventilating. Derek enters and looks concerned when he sees her. Meredith starts to cry as he crouches down next to her.) Meredith (crying): I don't. I can't. I can't. I don't want. I don't. I can't. I don't. I don't want my mother to die alone. (Derek just continues to look on comfortingly and concerned) Derek (whispers): Slow down. Just slow down. Shh. Slow deep breaths now. Slow deep breaths. (Meredith just continues to cry and breathe difficultly) (Derek stands up and reaches above Meredith's head. He pulls down a white paper bag and hands it to Meredith) Derek (calm quiet voice): Here. Take it easy. Slow down. Slow down. (Meredith breathes into the bag. She takes on of his hands in hers and holds onto tightly. Her breathing slows down and she stops crying. She rests her head against Derek's shoulder. Derek brings up his other free arm around her and holds her and rests his head against hers. Meredith pulls away the bag and eventually sits up) Meredith: I'm ok. Derek (smiles): You're ok. (She wipes a tear away and Derek brushes the hair away from her face) Meredith: Thank you. Derek: You're welcome. (They stare into each other's eyes for a long time almost as if they might kiss. Meredith breaks the moment by looking away. She gets up and walks out leaving Derek sitting in the closet by himself) (NICU where Izzie is checking on Cheyenne's baby who is in an incubator. Cheyenne is sitting on a rocking chair next to them) Cheyenne: Do you ever wish you hadn't done it? Izzie: No. I really don't. Cheyenne: If I give her up, if I give her away, do I still get to name her? Izzie: You can name her for yourself. Cheyenne: Did you name yours? Izzie: Uh ... Sarah. Cheyenne (smiles): That's a pretty name. Izzie (nods): Yeah. (Meredith is walking down the hall and up to Richard. Richard looks apprehensive and Meredith smiles) Meredith: I think you should keep visiting her. Richard: You sure? Meredith: Yeah. She lights up when you're around. She's alive. (Burke and Cristina are walking down the hall. A few feet away is Sydney who's talking to Alex. Cristina stops walking) Cristina: Oh, she's with Alex. I can't do this in front of Alex. Burke: Well, you can and you will. Cristina: Excuse me why aren't you apologizing? Burke: I'm, I'm an attending. I don't apologize to residents. You on the other hand are an intern. (He walks up to Sydney and Alex. Cristina follows) Cristina: Sydney, I just wanted to ... (She glances briefly at Alex who looks very smug and straining to hear what she has to say) ah Just wanted to ah to ... (very quietly) apologize for you know overstepping, I'm sorry. Sydney: Well that's the compassion I was looking for. Apology accepted. Okay, you wanna hug it out? (She holds out her arms for a hug) Cristina: Oh. (Burke raises his eyebrows and watches Cristina's reaction) Alex: Go, go hug. Cristina: No, yeah. Sydney: Come on. (Cristina backs away and walks off. Burke walks with her) (Patricia and Richard are in a small waiting room looking at a TV which shows the protest going on outside) Richard: We need them, Patricia. Patricia: Yes, we need them. (They start walking down the hallway) Richard: So where do I find the spare change? It's not like whatever's hiding underneath the couch cushions is gonna do it. Patricia: Well I seemed to remember pushing through paperwork for a multi-million dollar surgery robot. Richard: There was a two-year waiting list for that. It will bring a huge business. Patricia: And could you and the robot handle that business without nurses? (She walks off and Richard looks resigned) (Picket Line) (The line is deforming and the nurses are cheering. Richard is out there talking with them) MVO: We can't help ourselves. We see a line. We want to cross it. Maybe it's the thrill of trading the familiar for the unfamiliar. A sort of personal dare. (Derek's trailer, bedroom) (Addison and Derek are in bed, with Addison lying in Derek's arms) MVO: Only problem is once you've crossed it's almost impossible to go back. (Meredith's house, George's room) (George is lying in bed playing on his PSP. His door creaks open and closes. Izzie has come in. She gets in bed next to George and lies next to him. She sighs) George: Are you okay? Izzie: Yeah. Yeah I am. (George returns back to his PSP. His door opens again and this time Meredith enters. She goes to the other side of George's bed and lies down next to him. She closes her eyes) George: Are you ok? Meredith: Yeah. George (to both of them): What happened today? Meredith: Nothing. Izzie: Nothing. George: Ok. (He turns back to his game boy) Izzie: We don't know everything about each other, George. Meredith: Yeah. George: True. MVO: But, if you do manage to make it back across that line. You find safety in numbers. (Meredith turns off lamp on the bedside table and the whole screen goes dark) George: Anybody want to have sex? (Meredith laughs) Izzie: George.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x15 - Break on Through"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x16: It's the End of the World (Part 1) Original Airdate: 2/5/2006 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Peter Horton (OR) (Large light overhead from an OR flashing on. A heart monitor is beeping in the background) MVO: It's a look patients get in their eyes. (Meredith is standing decked out in full scrubs gear in the OR which is dad silent aside from the heart monitor. She is breathing heavily and teary eyed) MVO: There is a scent. The smell of death. (Derek is standing opposite to her also in his scrub gear just looking at her. The OR is absolutely completely empty. No tables, no equipment, no other people, nada aside from them two. Meredith is holding out one of her hands to Derek) MVO: Some kind of sixth sense. (Meredith sheds a tear. The tear trails down her face to her chin, where it hangs) MVO: When the great beyond is headed for you, you feel it coming. (The heart-monitor flat lines and the tear falls from her chin) MVO: What's the one thing you've always dreamed of doing before you die? (The screen goes black) (Meredith's house, shower) (Izzie and Meredith appear to be naked showering together and scrubbing each other sensuously. Cristina is also in there helping them. They look like they're having a blast) MVO: Ok, hello? Clearly not my dream. (The shower screen door opens revealing George who also appears naked with a towel wrapped around his waist. The three girls turn their attention to them) Cristina (whispers): George. Izzie: You're the strongest most masculine man I have ever known. Cristina: You're smarter than me. And you've got really great hair. Meredith: I'm in love with you, George. I always have been and I always will be. (George enters the shower and shuts the door behind. He then re-opens it, tosses his towel on the ground. Scene switches abruptly to George falling from his bed in his bedroom in the house) MVO: See? I told you, not my dream. (He looks confused for a second. His bedroom door opens revealing Izzie in her pajamas holding a box of cereal. She sneezes loudly, startling George) Izzie: Ok. (She sniffles) This is the last time I gonna tell you this. (George scrambles to get his blanket to cover him if you know what I mean) If you're gonna clog up the toilet you've got to be willing to use a plunger. Otherwise we're gonna make you crap in the backyard. What are you doing on the floor? Get up. Something's wrong with Meredith. (She leaves the room and George lies down on the floor) (Meredith's bedroom where Meredith is still lying in bed. George and Izzie are both in her room standing at her bedside) Meredith: I'm just not going. Izzie: You have to go to work. You're an intern. Saving lives is not optional. Meredith: Yes it is. I'm staying home. Izzie (to George): You're supposed to be helping. (George moves down to sit on Meredith's bed) George: Uh Mer? Maybe um there'll be a horrible accident nearby the hospital. Cut a bunch of people open. Sternotomies, Craniotomies. That'd be fun, right? Meredith: I don't care about surgeries. (She grabs the pillow next to her and pulls it over her head) (Cristina is dressed for work standing in Meredith's bedroom) Cristina: You have a feeling? (Izzie and George are now no longer in the room. Meredith removes her pillow to see Cristina standing there) Meredith: Yes. Cristina: Ok, what kind of feeling? Meredith: Like I might die. Cristina: Today? Tomorrow? In 50 years? (Izzie and George now dressed for work, listening at the door outside Meredith's room) Cristina: Cause we're all gonna die eventually! (Scene switches back to the room) But now we're late. Let's go. Meredith: Cristina! Come on. (Cristina sighs. She sits down on the bed) Cristina: Ok. This is me being supportive. Meredith: Really? Cristina: Yeah, hey, fine. I'm totally supportive. Go. (Meredith sits up) Meredith: Ok the man I love has a wife. And then he chooses her over me. And that wife takes my dog. (Cristina has a confused look on her face) Ok she didn't take the dog, I gave it to her but I didn't mean to give it to her I meant to give it to him. But that does not change the fact that she's got my McDreamy! And my McDog. She's got my McLife! And what have I got? (Meredith stares at her as if to say nothing) Meredith (more calm and sad tone): Do you know I can't remember the last time we kissed. Cause you never think the last time is the last time. You think there'll be more. You think you have forever but you don't. (She slumps back down in the bed again and is hyped up again) Plus my conditioner decided to stop working and I think I have brittle bones. I just, I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope I need to stay in bed and feel like I might die today. (Cristina stands up thoughtfully for a second before yanking the sheets away from Meredith. She stands up over her) Cristina: Whatever! Everybody has problems. Now get your ass out of bed and get to work! Now! Move! Move! Move! (She kicks Meredith to move off the bed who does so very quickly) (George and Izzie are listening. The door opens) George (to Izzie): What were you saying? Izzie: I don't know. (Meredith gives them both disapproving looks as she makes her way to get ready. Cristina follows her) Cristina: We're good to go. (George and Izzie nod at each other) (Seattle Scenes) (OR Hallway) (Richard is standing in front of the OR board looking slightly uneasy. The board has very few surgeries scheduled on it. Burke walks up to him) Burke: Quiet board. Richard: I know. Burke: That's a bad sign. Richard: I know that. Don't you think I know that? (Derek walks up to them) Derek: That's a quiet board. (Richard groans loudly) Derek (to Burke): Is he in a bad mood? Burke: Quiet board. Derek: Right, he hate's a quiet board. Richard: I can hear you talking about me. Burke: We're just saying. Richard: Quiet board means trouble. A quiet board is death! A quiet board bodes bad news! (He turns around to face them) And stop looking at me like that! (He walks off) Burke: Dr. Shepherd. (He starts to walk off) Derek: Dr. Burke. (Burke stops walking and faces Derek) Derek: You and I, we've known each other for a while now, right? Burke: Yes. Derek: We've done several successful surgeries together. Burke (looks confused as to where this is leading): Yes. Derek: Your girlfriend is my ex-girlfriend's best friend. Burke: Yes. Derek (smiles): Why can't we call each other by our first name? (Burke stares at him for a bit) Burke: I don't think so. Derek: Seriously? Burke: Seriously. Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Dr. Burke. (Burke walks away) (Cristina, Izzie, George and Alex are in the pit getting ready for incoming cases in their lovely yellow gowns) Cristina (to Izzie): I haven't been in the OR in two days. I'm getting some OR time. (They all start making their way to the double doors where the patients come in) Cristina: We haven't had a decent resident this week. Izzie: Oh the last two weren't that bad. Alex: Doesn't matter which resident we get. They suck. George: They all sucked. Izzie: Yeah. (They've all walked to the door except for Meredith who is a few feet behind them to still putting on her yellow gown) George: I miss Dr. Bailey. (The door closes and the whole area goes deathly silent. Meredith looks a little ill. Empty nurses' station aside from Derek who is standing there watching her holding some files. Meredith turns to Derek) Derek: You all right? Meredith: I have a feeling. Derek: I get those. Meredith: Yeah? Derek: Yeah. (He moves a few feet closer to her) Meredith: And? Derek: If you wait long enough, it passes. (An elevator ding sounds) Meredith: Promise? Derek: I promise. (Meredith nods slightly and walks after where the others go. All the normal hospital sounds return gradually. Derek looks pensive. Addison walks up to him) Addison (smiling): Hey. Whatcha doing? Derek: Waiting for it to pass. Addison (confused): For what to pass? (Meredith is walking through the sliding doors to outside the pit where the ambulances come in. She comes up behind where Izzie and Alex are standing together and Cristina and George are standing in front of them) Alex (to Izzie): So you want to do charts later? Izzie: Never gonna happen. Alex: What? Izzie: Alex, I gave you your chance. You had your chance and you slept with someone else. (George rolls his eyes and Cristina looks like she wants to crack up laughing. She and George both chuckle) Izzie: I forgave you in the spirit of being a bigger person. Of rising above but these legs are closed to you now. The panties are staying on. So you and me? Never gonna happen. Alex: So you don't wanna do charts later? Izzie: Go stand over there. (She gestures for to move away from her) Cristina: Can we get back to the point? George: You had a point? Cristina: Yeah, which surgeon are we going to have to suck up to today? Bailey: That would be me! (They all turn around startled and find Dr. Bailey looking very pregnant but still dressed in normal everyday clothing standing behind them) Cristina: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: I've been gone 2 weeks. 2 weeks! And you ran off 2 residents! I've got people phoning me at home, screaming telling me my interns are Rosemary's babies. (They all looking slightly offended by that) Bailey: Nobody wants you! Do you think I have time for this? I am pregnant! I'm supposed to be on bed rest. I'm supposed to be growing a human being. I'm supposed to be calm! Do I look calm to you? Did I raise you fools to be pariahs? (George pushes past Meredith and Izzie and walks up right to Dr. Bailey who looks confused at George's behavior. He grabs her in a tight hug) George: You're back. Bailey: Ah! I'm not back. George (tightens the hug): You're not? Bailey (hits his back): Get off me. (George finally breaks the hug. He smiles at the other interns. Bailey shrugs off the hug. An ambulance can be heard approaching) Bailey: Uh Yang, Karev, Grey, stay here and wait for the incoming case. O'Malley page Addison Shepherd. (George nods and moves back into the hospital) Stevens get a wheelchair. Izzie: A wheelchair? Bailey: A wheelchair. (George dashes back to Bailey while Izzie goes into the hospital) George: What shall I tell Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd? Bailey (to Alex, Cristina & Meredith): What did I say? (They move off to meet the ambulance) George: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: What? George: What do you want me to tell Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd when she answers her page? (Izzie comes with a wheelchair. A large gushing sound is heard. Both Bailey and George look down at Bailey's feet. George takes a step back shocked and Izzie has a large oh my god look on her face) Bailey: Tell her my contractions are 10 minutes apart and my water just broke all over your shoes. (She moves past him to get to the wheelchair. George attempts to lift her into the wheelchair) Bailey: Uh, boy get off me! (Cristina, Alex and Meredith are standing in front of the incoming ambulance. They open the doors. A young paramedic helps a very powerful screaming lady who has blood spatters over her climb out of the ambulance. Alex and Cristina pass of the lady to Meredith who takes her into the hospital. There is another paramedic named Hannah Davies [Cristina Ricci] in the ambulance who looks very nervous. Alex looks down at the patient and sees that Hannah has her hand in a very large chest wound of the patient) Paramedic: Take her. Alex: Dude. Cristina: Yeah. (She and Alex both scramble into the ambulance) (Seattle Scenes) (Cristina and Burke are walking down a stairwell in the hospital) Cristina: James Carlson. Age 46. Paramedics found him unconscious and bleeding. Mechanisms of injury are unknown but he has a large sucking chest wound. And a wife with very healthy lungs. (They enter a hallway) Burke: Vitals? Cristina: Tachycardic in the 140s. BP holding in the 90s. (They walk for a bit) Burke: You were gone when I woke up. Cristina: Oh I, I had to do a thing. Burke: You didn't leave a note. Cristina: Yeah, well, I had this thing to do. You know I did this thing. Burke: And once again ... Cristina: What? Burke: We go to sleep. I think everything is fine and by the time I wake up you're just a little bit crazy. Cristina: Ok, I'm not crazy. I had a thing. Burke: Ok. (Burke enters a trauma room with the patient James Carlson. You can hear his wife screaming from far. Hannah is still there with her arm plugging the wound. Meredith is checking James' heart rate. There are other nurses and doctors in there as well, including the other paramedic who helped Mindy Carlson out of the ambulance) Burke: How's his respiratory effort? Meredith: Absent breast sounds on the right side. Air bubbling on the side of the wound. He's shocky and getting a little cyanotic. (Burke moves to check the heart rate) James (mumbles): My wife is ... (His wife is still crying and screaming loudly) Burke (to a nurse): Let's get him intubated and place an occlusive dressing over the wound. (to the Hannah) And who are you? Hannah: Hannah. Hannah Davies. Burke: Hannah, why do you have your hand inside my patient? Paramedic: I'd like to say for the record that I told her not to. Hannah: I tried to tamponade the wound with gauze and pressure but the only thing that would stop the bleeding was my hand. Every time I tried to move it he starts bleeding out. (Burke checks the wound) Hannah: Can I take my hand out now? Paramedic: You don't stick your hand inside of a patient when you don't know how he was injured. You don't stick your hand inside of a patient at all. Hannah: Yeah, I know that now! Burke (to the paramedic): Out of my room. Paramedic: She gets to stay? Burke: She has her hand stuck inside my patient. (Hannah smirks at the Paramedic guy who looks annoyed but he leaves the room) Hannah: Nice. Thanks. Burke: Oh don't get happy. You have your finger on a major bleeder. Mr. Carlson is running out of time. The only thing that you've won is an all expense paid trip to the OR. (to Meredith) Dr. Grey, prepare to transport her to the OR. (to Everyone) And let's make this happen quickly people. Cristina: Uh what, what do you want me to do? Burke: I want you to ... to make that woman stop screaming and tell us what happened. Cristina: Oh, I can't go to the OR? Burke: No. You have a thing to do. (Burke walks away) Meredith: What was that about? Cristina: If I'd known you were gonna get the good case I would've let you stay in bed. (Cristina walks off) (The pit where Mindy Carlson is still screaming her head off. Alex is standing in front of her. Izzie is as well but cringing at the sound) Alex: She's been going at least 15, 20 minutes. This must be like some kind of record. Izzie: Look at her. She's not even turning red. (Cristina walks up to them) Cristina: Good for her. Burke says shut her up. (Olivia walks in) Olivia: We've got an incoming trauma, MVC with a 30 minute extrication time and severe and intrusion damage to the car. (Mindy screams even louder at Olivia) Definite head injury. sab vitals and everything else. 5 minutes out! (Olivia walks completely by them ignoring Mindy and heads out to meet the ambulance) Cristina: I got it. Izzie: I got it. Cristina: I got it first. (They both move towards the double doors) Alex: I thought you said Burke told you to shut her up! Cristina: No Burke told me to tell you to shut her up. (Alex sighs) Alex: Ma'am. Ma'am. (Mindy just screams at Alex) Alex: Mrs. Carlson. Are you injured? (Her screaming just continues which is very annoying) Alex: I need you to try and calm down. Mrs. Carlson. (A bit louder) Can you hear me? Can you hear me? (Mindy just screams. Alex looks fed and goes up to close to Mindy and screams loudly into her face. Mindy stops instantly screaming shocked) Alex: Good. Ok. Now can you tell me exactly what happened to your husband? (Mindy just starts crying loudly) (George is standing in the hallway peering into a patient room through the tiny window on the door. Richard comes by and notices this) Richard: What are you doing? (George turns around looking happy) George: Chief. (He points at the door) Bailey's in there. Richard (excited): Bailey's back? (Richard moves to the door to look in smiling but instantly stops. He looks at George mortified) Richard: O'Malley! George: She's in labor. Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd is examining her cervix. Richard: I can see that, quiet clearly! (George moves back to look through the door) Richard: O'Malley, stop looking! (George moves away from the door again but still smiling) George: Pretty amazing right? The miracle of life. Richard: Our Bailey. Becoming a mother. Feels good. Having Bailey back at the hospital. The balance is being restored. George: That's all I'm saying, sir. (Derek walks by and up to the nurses station nearby. He sees the two standing there) Derek: Hey guys. (He hands a nurse a file) Would you ah get this to Dr. Shepherd for me, please? (He turns back to the guys) What's going on? George (gestures to the room): Bailey's in there. Derek (smiling): Oh Bailey's back? (He grins) That's excellent. (He makes his way to the door to peer in and quickly loses his smile) Derek: And her cervix is being examined by my wife which is ah, which is a visual image I'll never get out of my head. Thanks for the warning. (George and Richard smile) George: Right. (Derek's pager goes off) (The door opens and Addison walks out) Addison: Well...Hmm the gathering of men outside the delivery room. How mid-century of you. (She moves to Derek who gives her a kiss on the cheek) Derek: Say hi to Bailey for me. Addison: Mmm. (Derek walks off. Addison walks up to the nursing station. George and Richard walk up to her) Richard: How's she doing? Addison: Taking it like a woman. (George and Richard exchange smiles) 6 centimeters dilated. 50% effaced and refusing all pain meds which I think is stupid but I'm not in labor so... (She walks off. The doors open suddenly and Bailey walks out) Bailey: What are you people doing out here? Richard: Are you alright? Can I get you anything? Bailey: A boy the size of a 10 pound bowling ball is working his way out of my body. Can you get me something for that? Can you get me a new vagina? Richard: Oh, well... Bailey: I didn't think so. Look everybody I appreciate the concern but I'm fine. It's just childbirth. All I need is my husband who should've been here by now. (George holds out a pad and a pen) George: Write down his number. I'll call him. I'll track him down. (Bailey takes the pad and pen and writes down her husband's number) Bailey: All right. Then go away. Give me some privacy. I don't want to see any of you again until after the baby is born. (She hands George back the stationery) Which if does like I told him to and stays on schedule, should be in about 4 and a half hours. (Bailey makes her way back into her room. George and Richard are still standing there smiling) Bailey: I mean it! (She closes the door. George turns to Richard) Richard (grinning): Bailey's back. George: She's back sir. (They walk off in separate directions) (Trauma room where Izzie, Cristina and various other nurses and doctors are checking on a large black man, lying down on a gurney) Izzie: He's my patient Cristina. Get your own. Cristina: I had one. Meredith took him. Izzie: So now you're gonna take mine? Cristina: If I can. Tucker: Is my wife here? Is she here? Izzie: Was she in the accident with you? Tucker: She should be here. She's supposed to be here. Izzie: We'll find her, Mr. Jones... (Derek enters the room) Derek: Ok, what do we got? Izzie: Ah Tucker Jones. Age 35. Lost control of his car. ht the guard- Cristina (interrupts): He's got a chest contusion and (Izzie looks pissed at Cristina) a head CT shows a left side depressed skull fracture. And a temporal epidural hematoma. GCS 14 in the field. Now down to 12. His motor exams are due back. Derek: Okay let's get him on a gram of dilantin and 70g of mannitol. Izzie: I'm on it. (Cristina looks annoyed) Derek (to Tucker): Mr. Jones, I'm gonna need to do an examination of you, okay? (A phone starts ringing) Tucker: Ah, my phone. Answer it. My phone. My wife. You need to answer it. Derek: Ok, we're going to answer it. (to Izzie): Dr. Stevens, answer his phone. Izzie: But... Cristina: I got it. (She grabs the injections from Izzie) Derek: Mr. Jones can you squeeze my fingers for me, please? Mr. Jones? (Izzie looks mad and makes her way to answer the phone) Tucker: My phone. Derek: Mr. Jones I need you to squeeze my fingers. (Tucker starts seizing and Izzie answer's his mobile) Derek: Okay he's seizing. Get him on his side! Watch his arm. Izzie: Hello? Hello? George? It's me Izzie. Derek: All right. Let's get him to the O.R Izzie: No I don't have Bailey's husband's phone. What are you, I think I'd know if I have Bailey's husband's phone George. (The others start wheeling Tucker out of the trauma room while Izzie turns around shocked realizing that Tucker could be Bailey's husband) Izzie: What's Bailey's husband's name? (Izzie looks horrified) (OR with a large OR team and Meredith prepping for the surgery on Mr. Carlson. Hannah is all scrubbed up with her hand still inside Mr. Carlson) Meredith: How are you doing over there? Hannah: My hand is getting numb and I gotta tell ya, this whole insides are all bloody and squishy thing is so not good for my gag reflex. But I'm good. Is this ok? Me being in here like this. Meredith: Once Dr. Burke scrubs in. He'll have you remove your hand and then you can go. (Hannah nods) And we'll fix Mr. Carlson. Hannah: Good. Cause I know how much medicine I know and it's just enough to never be allowed in an OR. It's my second week. As a paramedic. I got out of school about a month ago. Meredith: I haven't been doing this that long either. Hannah: Oh. Talk about on the job training huh? (Scrub area where Burke is scrubbing up. Derek walks in to scrub up as well) Derek: Dr. Burke. Burke: Dr. Shepherd. (Addison comes up to them) Derek: Hey. Addison: Hey. You've got Dr. Bailey's husband on the table? Burke: Bailey's husband is going into surgery? Derek (nods): Got into a car accident trying to get to the hospital before the birth. Addison: What do we tell Bailey? Derek: Nothing. Let's just wait until I get in there and see how bad the damage is. Have something concrete to tell her. Addison: Yeah, no use upsetting her until we know. Okay, keep me posted. (She moves to leave) Hey, Preston. Burke: Good seeing you Addison. (Derek looks amazed as Addison leaves) Burke: What? Derek: She gets to call you by your first name and I don't. Burke: I like her. Derek: And you don't like me? Burke: No. (He walks off leaving Derek looking after him) (Derek is entering the OR where Tucker is lying on an operating table being prepped for surgery. Izzie and Cristina are one of the many doctors in there) Derek: How are we doing? Izzie: He's sab. Anesthesiologist: I'm just about to put him under. Tucker: Doctor. (Derek walks up to him) You, you're Shepherd, right? Derek: Yes I am. Tucker: I thought so. Miranda ... she really likes you. Derek: I like her too. Tucker: We're having a baby. Derek (nods): I know. I'm going to care of you. I'm gonna get you back to Bailey, ok? Safe and sound. (The anesthesiologist moves to put Tucker under) (The pit where it appears Mindy has stopped crying. Nurse Tyler has helped Mindy change into a hospital gown and got her bloody clothes from her. Alex is at her bedside) Tyler: All this blood and none of it's hers. Alex: Yeah she's fine. Acute-anxiety reaction. Give her 2 diazepam PO to calm her down. Tyler: She in shock? Mindy: I'll say. (Tyler and Alex exchange a look) Alex: Can you tell us exactly what happened? Mindy: You mean the shock part? It was shocking. I'm shocked. You tell my husband when I get my hands on him; He's a dad man! Do you hear me? Scare me like this. Alex: Exactly how was your husband injured? (A man named Paul calls out) Paul: Mindy? Mindy? Are you in here? Mindy: I'm over here. You moron! (A middle aged man looking fairly stressed out and kinda dressed like a wr veteran walks up to the group) Paul: How's James doing? Mindy: Oh he's bleeding all over the place. That's how he's doing! (She yells) The girl of the ambulance put her hand inside of him! That's how he's doing! Paul: What are you yelling at me for? Mindy: Because! Because you and James are like idiots! Playing like 8-year olds! (Alex tries to interrupt) Paul: Ok we don't play. We re-enact. Mindy: You play! You put on your costumes and build your stupid toys and you play! Paul: We re-enact. Mindy: Nobody re-enacts World wr II. You moron! (Alex walks up to Paul) Alex: Exactly what happened? Mindy: You wanna know what happened? What happened is my husband and his moron best-friend... Paul (interrupts): Can you stop calling me a moron? Mindy: Moron best-friend! Decided to build some kind of big gn. Paul: Yeah an exact replica of the finest allied anti-tnk wapon of World wr II. The M9A1 bazooka. Mindy: So they put on their stupid costumes and they go out into the backyard and they try to sht the thing! (Alex looks a little confused) Paul: I'm the gn. James is the loader. Ok we follow the specifications exactly. (Alex nods) You should see it. It's a 60 millimeter. One and a half pound rocket. It's a beauty. Mindy (angry): It didn't work. So like an idiot my husband has to go and stand in front of his big gn to see what went wrong! That's when the stupid toy starts working! (Alex starts looking concerned) Paul: Stop calling it a toy. Mindy: It's taken up half my garage. I'll call it whatever I want! Alex: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, he sht himself with a bazooka? Mindy: Yeah! Alex (turns horrified to Paul): He sht himself with a bazooka? (Paul nods) Mindy: Like I said, morons! The pair of them! Alex: Was there an explsin? Paul: Huh? Alex (insistent): Was there an explsin? Paul: No. Why? (Alex looks beyond horrified) Paul (horror-struck): Oh crap. (Alex runs out of the ward sprinting) Mindy: What? What is it? (Alex is sprinting down a hallway. Richard sees him) Richard: Hey! Slow down! (Alex ignores him and keeps running) (Derek is in the OR about to start surgery on Tucker with a drill) Derek: If Bailey asks, I'm not the one who did this. (He starts drilling) (Bailey is in her patient room holding her mobile looking concerned. She opens up her phone and starts dialing) (Alex is sprinting down another hallway) (OR where Mr. Carlson is. Burke is about to start the surgery) Burke: Okay everyone. I'm going to do a thoracotomy and Hannah here is going to pull her hand out. Dr. Grey is going to clamp the bleeder when we have more exposure. (To Hannah) Ready? Hannah: More than ready. Burke: Scalpel. (A nurse hands him a scalpel) (Alex is sprinting down the hallway, breathing hard and entering a stairwell) (George sees Tucker's mobile phone ring but going un-answered) (Bailey in her room on her mobile) Bailey: Uh, Tucker Jones you better lying in the street somewhere dad, mister (She starts getting a contraction) because when I get my hands on you (she calls out in pain) I am having your baby here mister! (Alex sprinting up the stairs) (OR with Burke about to cut Mr. Carlson) Burke: Ok, on the count of the 3. One. (Alex running down a hallway. Scene switches back to Burke) Burke: Two. (Alex running. Cut to Burke about an inch away from flesh and from making an incision) (Bailey in her patient room moaning as the contraction passes) (OR as Burke just presses the scalpel against Mr. Carlson's skin. Alex slams open the door breathless) Alex: Dr. Burke? I need to speak with you. Burke (annoyed): I am in surgery, Karev. Alex (insistent): You wanna talk to me sir. (Burke looks at him for a bit before handing the scalpel back to the scrubs nurse. Burke makes his way over to Alex who's standing at the doorway while the OR team including Hannah just look over at the two) Burke: Karev, if you interrupt me in my OR it better be for a good damn reason. Alex (interrupts): Was it through and through? Burke: What? Alex: The wound on James Carlson. Was it through and through. Burke: No, it was just an injury. No exit. Why? (Alex looks resigned) (Hannah and Meredith) Hannah (to Meredith): He's cute. He single? (Meredith just stares at Burke and Alex who are talking in hushed tones. The OR team give each other confused looks. The anesthesiologist Dr. Milton also looks confused) (Burke takes one step back into the OR and Alex half-closes the door watching) Burke: Hannah. Hannah: Yes, Dr. Burke? Burke: What do you feel? Inside of Mr. Carlson. What is your hand touching? Hannah (confused): What do you mean? Burke: Is your hand touching anything hard? Meredith (confused): Hard? Burke: Like metal? HannahHHH: Um, I don't know. (Hannah attempts to move her hand) Burke: Don't move your hand. Just tell me what you feel. Meredith: Dr. Burke, what's going on? Burke: Hannah? Hannah: Um, my finger tips are touching something...kinda hard. (She nods) Yeah, yeah definitely. Dr. Milton: Oh my god! Burke (admonishing tone): Dr. Milton! Hannah (panicky): What? What's wrong? Burke: Hannah, I don't want you to move. Not your hand, not your body. Not an inch. Hannah: Ok you should know your starting to scare me. Burke: Don't be scared. Everything is going to be fine. Dr. Grey could you ah... (He motions with his head for Meredith to come forward. Meredith leaves the table and walks up to him looking very confused) Burke (quietly to Meredith): I want you to walk out of this room. Walk, do not run. Go and tell the charge nurse that we have a code black. Meredith: I'm sorry, code black? Burke: Code black. Tell him that I am sure. And then tell him to call the bmb squad. (Meredith looks concerned and scared) (OR team now including Alex and Meredith standing outside the OR which has now only Burke, Hannah, Dr. Milton and James Carlson) Alex: Can you imagine? What she stick her hand in there for anyway? Meredith: She was trying to save his life. Alex: And now she might die because of it. (Burke opens the door and steps outside) Meredith: What do we do now? Burke: I go back in and wait for the bmb squad. You leave. You all leave. (Most of the team starts leaving but a few stand their ground including Meredith) Alex: Mer, you coming? (Meredith turns and gives him a look) It's your funeral. (He walks off with the others) Meredith: You need a surgical team. Burke: All I need is Dr. Milton to keep him under. I can do the rest myself. (Meredith and 3 other people from the OR team just stand there) burke: Fine. But you wait by the elevator. I don't want anybody in here that doesn't need to be in this OR. When the bmb squad arrives we'll take it from there. Until then Milton and I are doing this alone. Now, go. (They all walk off to stand by the elevator) (Bailey's patient room where Addison is helping Bailey to do some exercises to lessen the pain of her contractions) Bailey: Ok, ok, ok. (The contraction passes) Ah! (George enters) George: 8 minutes apart. Addison: There is no shame in an epidural, Miranda. Bailey: Epidural increases the possibility of a C-section. (George places a suitcase with Bailey's clothes on the bed) Addison: It also decreases pain. Miranda, this is a big baby. It's your first baby and I'm telling you it is not gonna be a short or an easy labor. Bailey: Mmm, I can handle a little pain. No problem. (George opens the door to leave and watches from the doorway. Bailey stands up with the help of Addison and goes to sit on the couch in her room) Bailey: Women all over the world do this at home. Addison: Mmm hmm. Bailey: With nothing more than a pair of scissors and a bucket of hot water. (They both sit down on the couch) George: Well women all over the world also die giving birth at home every single day. (Both Bailey and Addison give George I can't believe you just said that looks) George: I did not just say that. (Addison shakes her head) Bailey: You're supposed to be making yourself useful and finding my husband. George (confused): What? I... Addison (interrupts): He's ah not here. (Bailey looks disbelievingly and George shrugs) Bailey: Oh now he should be here by now! Addison: Ok we're going to go find him. Right, Dr. O'Malley? George: Right. (He leaves. Addison's pager beeps and she does a double take when she sees it) Bailey: What? Addison: Oh nothing. I'll ... I'll be right back. (She leaves the room) (OR where Derek is performing surgery on Tucker. Izzie and Cristina are watching from afar. Derek's pager goes off) Derek: Yang, could you check that? (Cristina moves to check his pager and raises her eyebrows at the pager. She moves to make a phone call) Izzie: How's he doing? Derek: Oh, it's touch and go. I've located the clot. I'm just trying to find the source of the bleeding. Go and find Addison and tell her that he's in worse shape than I thought. (Izzie leaves and Cristina hangs up the phone) Derek: What'd they want? Cristina: They want us to evacuate. Derek: Evacuate? Did they say why? Cristina (questioning tone): Ah no but your pager said 'Code Black'? (Derek looks up startled from the surgery) Derek: You sure they said that? Cristina (nods): Yes. Derek (to himself): Could be a drill. Even if it's not a drill I can't evacuate. I've got an open brain on the table. I'm not leaving Bailey's husband on the table with his skull flap open so (he speaks up louder) if anybody wants to go they should go. Anybody want to evacuate? (They all stand there) Going once. Going twice. Three times. (Nobody leaves) Derek (to Cristina): You're sure they said Code Black? Cristina (nods): Yes. (Elevator where George gets on. Addison is already standing there. Other people are in there looking like they're going home) George: I don't like having to lie to Dr. Bailey. Addison: Now's not the time Dr. O'Malley. George: She'd want to know about her husband. (His pager goes off. The doors begin to close) George: Code Black? What's a 'Code Black?' (Izzie runs to the doors) Izzie: Wait! Hold it! Whoa. (She stops the doors from closing and enters the elevator) Izzie: Dr. Shepherd. The other Dr. Shepherd wanted me to let you know that Tucker's bleed is more extensive than he originally thought. It's gonna be a few more hours before he has anything concrete to tell Dr. Bailey. Addison: Thanks Stevens. (The doors shut and George moves to speak to Izzie) George: What's a 'Code Black'? Izzie: A what? (She moves to look at his pager but her own goes off which she checks) Izzie: 'Code Black'? Code Red, Code Blue, Code White. I've never had a 'Code Black' before. (She looks to Addison) Dr. Shepherd? Addison: Just, just go back to your locker room and wait for your resident to give you instructions. Izzie (now concerned): We don't have a resident. George: What's going on? Izzie: Is it something bad? (The elevator dings and the doors open to reveal chaos on the floor with nurses, doctors and many police officers running around) Addison: Yeah, it's something bad. (OR with Mr. Carlson. Hannah is still there looking very nervous. Dr. Milton is slowly pumping the manual ventilator, an ampoule bag. Burke is standing a few feet away watching) Hannah: So, so I'm touching live unexploded ammniton? Burke: I'm afraid so. Hannah: Huh. Not the greatest feeling in the world. Burke: No. I guess not. Hannah: And he's still out? Dr. Milton: Yeah. Hannah: But he's not hooked up to the machine anymore? Burke: I had Dr. Milton take him of the ventilator. The flow of oxygen posed a danger. The ambu bag is breathing for him now. Hannah: But he can't hear me? Burke (shakes his head): No. (Hannah nods and looks down) Burke: Hannah? Hannah (panicky): What if I just take my hand out really quickly? Burke: We'd have to ask the bmb squad that when they arrive but I'm guessing that would cause the amo to shift and explode. Hannah (nods teary-eyed): Oh. Burke: Hannah? Hannah: Yeah? Burke: You're hand is keeping Mr. Carlson from bleeding out. You are keeping him alive. Hannah (nods and closes her eyes): Right. And the bmb squad is coming. Burke: The bmb squad is coming. Hannah (nods again even more teary-eyed): Ok. Ok. (Burke nods) (Richard is standing on the stairs nearby a nurses' station. He's giving a meeting to many attendings and residents. Addison walks up to the group with George and Izzie following) Richard: We're having pre-op patients transferred to Mercy West and all trauma re-routed to Seattle Presbyterian. There is no danger to the north, south and west wings of this hospital. Just the east surgical wing. That said anyone who wants to leave can leave. No one stays unless they volunteer to stay, understood? (The group nods) Ok. (The group starts to break up and Richard starts walking off and Addison approaches him with George and Izzie listening but a few feet behind them) Addison: Richard, it's a Code Black? Really? Richard: Yes, I've shut down the OR's. Addison: Wait to trauma? Richard: To everything. Addison: Wait a minute to everything, everything? Richard (stops walking): As of ten minutes ago all the operating rooms at Seattle Grace were completely evacuated with the exception of Dr. Burke's team. Izzie: And Dr. Shepherd's team. Richard: What? (He walks up to Izzie) What do you mean Dr. Shepherd's team? Izzie: They're still in OR two. (Nurse Debbie comes up to them) Debbie: bmb squad just arrived. Richard: Excuse me. (He leaves) (bmb squad is coming off the elevator onto the O.R floor lead by a man named Dylan Young) Dylan: You're the surgical team? Meredith: Yes. Dylan: Dylan Young, bmb squad. (to his team) All right spread out and check the area and then we'll secure the patient. (he turns back to Meredith) Where are they? Meredith (points to the OR down the hall): Dr. Burke has them in there. Dylan: Right, the rest of this floor has been evacuated? Meredith: It has. Yes. Dylan: Okay, you stay here. Nobody moves unless I say so. (A bmb squad member calls out) Man: We've got people over here. (Meredith looks confused) Dylan (to Meredith): I thought you said the floor had been evacuated. Meredith: I thought it had. I'm not in charge or anything. (Cristina is yelling at a bmb squad member and blocking him from entering the O.R. Meredith sees this) Meredith: Cristina! Cristina (to the bmb squad guy): Back Up! Meredith: Oh no she will hurt him! Cristina (to Meredith): What's going on? Meredith: bmb in a body cavity. Cristina: Man. All I got is Bailey's husband's open brain. Meredith: What procedure? Cristina: Craniotomy with Shepherd. Meredith: Shepherd's got Bailey's husband on the table? Dylan: Excuse me. Meredith (they both ignore him): Bailey's having a baby! Dylan (louder): Excuse me! Stop talking! (Cristina and Meredith give each other looks and move away from each other) (Izzie is sitting against the wall in a hallway overlooking the floor below filled with the police and hospital staff. George comes up, sits next to her and hands her half of his sandwich) George: Eat something. Izzie: You knew Meredith and Cristina would be on a floor with a bmb? George: Yeah. Izzie: Is it wrong that we're jealous? It's alright that we're jealous, right? George: The fact that we're jealous because they might blow up and die is not a reflection on our character. It's about feeling useless. Izzie: Ineffectual. George: We couldn't even get Meredith out of bed this morning. We had to call in Cristina. How embarrassing is that? Izzie: You know what I think George? I think Meredith and Cristina are doers. George: They do. They're doers. Izzie: They do and we ... (she sighs) we watch. We're watchers. (They both look pretty down at this. Izzie notices Alex helping out on the floor below) Izzie: We have to become more proactive George. We have to become doers. George: Fight for what we want. Izzie: We have to do. George: Yeah. (Izzie stands up and walks off) Oh you mean ... (he stands up) We are starting right now. Ok. (Izzie is walking down an empty hallway very determinedly. She enters the Doctors' lounge where Alex is in there by himself making a cup of coffee) Izzie: Alex. Alex: How crazy is this. Dude, it's like the apocalypse. Izzie: Alex. Alex: It's true. Look around you. Half the people who are supposed to be saving lives fled the building to save themselves. Bailey's husband almost died coming to see his kid get born. (Izzie moves to speak but Alex keeps talking) The annoying twins are down on the OR floor with a guy who literally might explode in their faces. It's a morgue waiting to happen in here. Just saying people should get while the gets good because they're might not be tomorrow. Izzie: Alex! Alex: What? (Izzie and Alex are in a linen closet making out passionately. They break apart) Izzie: Take off your pants. (She starts taking off her shoes and socks) Alex: Izzie what are you doing? Izzie: I'm being a doer. Getting while the getting's good. Now take off your pants. (She starts removing her top) Alex: Look when I said the apocalypse I meant it metaphorically not literally. (Izzie removes her top leaving her standing in her bra. She takes out her hair from its bun) Izzie: Alex. I haven't had sex in 8 months and 12 days. I'm horny, I'm half-naked and saying yes. You wanna stand there and talk metaphors or do you wanna literally take of your pants! (Alex nods) Okay. (Alex throws down his pants and stands up eagerly as Izzie removes her bra) (Derek is still operating on Tucker with his O.R team. Dylan stands at the doorway) Dylan: Dr. Shepherd there's an explsive device in the OR next door. I need you to evacuate now. Derek: Yeah and I've got a guy who's brain is exposed on this table. I'm not going to walk away and leave him to die. (to his O.R team) The rest of you can go. (The majority of the OR team leaves but a few stay. Dylan doesn't look very happy) Dylan: You close him up. You do whatever you have to do. The 'Chief of Surgery' has authorized to tell me you cannot stay here. Derek: The 'Chief of Surgery' doesn't scare me. Dr. Bailey scares me. I'm not going to be the one to let her husband die. And that's what would happen if I put his skull flap on in this condition. bmb or no bmb. Now get out of my OR. (Dylan closes the door) (Bailey is in her room standing up trying to pass off another contraction. Addison comes in) Bailey: Trying to get gravity to do me a favor. I'm 9 centimeters dilated. I need that last centimeter. Addison (distracted): Good. That's ah ... good. (She avoids looking at Bailey. Bailey notices this) Bailey: Dr. Shepherd? Where exactly is my husband? (Addison faces Bailey teary-eyed) Addison: He's with my husband. (Addison gives Bailey the news) (X-ray viewing room where Burke is Dylan looking at x-rays of Mr. Carlson. There's also another bmb squad guy there as well) Dylan: There is no telling how dangerous it is. We need more info. Burke: The longer we wait, the greater the chance he'll bleed out and die. (OR with Hannah and Dr. Milton. They're both wearing flak jackets now. They both seem very scared) Dr. Milton: Pink mist. Hannah: Excuse me? Dr. Milton: That's what the bmb squad calls you when you blow up. Pink mist. I read that somewhere. bmb goes off and...anyone in range explodes into a billion pieces. You're liquid. There's nothing left. (Hannah does not look happy hearing this) Just flecks of human flesh and blood. Pink mist. Sometimes they don't even find a finger. One minute you're a person, the next ... you're bloody rain. (Milton stares at Hannah for a bit) Dr. Milton (holds out the ambu bag): Here take this. Hannah: What? Dr. Milton: Go ahead. (Hannah takes the ambu bag with her free hand) Now I want you to squeeze it in even beats. Ok? (Hannah begins squeezing the bag) Now not too fast. Not too fast. There you go. (He starts backing out of the O.R slowly and turns to leave. He reaches the door) Hannah: Dr. Milton? Dr. Milton: I've got kids. (Hannah looks shocked as she realizes he's leaving her) Even beats, ok? That's it. (He leaves the OR, leaving Hannah thoroughly scared by herself) (Conference room where Richard is sitting talking to Mindy. Paul is pacing around the room) Mindy: What about my husband? How long can he stay like that with live amo inside him? Richard: I honestly don't know. Mindy: But you're going to try to save him, right? Richard: We're gonna try. First the bmb squad has to determine the best way to retrieve the device. Paul: I'm sorry, Mindy. I'm so sorry. Mindy: Shut up. We've got 3 kids and you've got him building bazookas! (she turns back to Richard) Oh god. He's gonna die. (She starts crying) Richard: Ah Paul why don't you go with the officer there and answer his questions about the device you guys built. (There is an officer standing at the doorway as is Alex. Mindy sits down) Paul: Oh anything, anything to help. (Paul leaves and Alex comes in) Richard: Uh Karev, why don't we get Mrs. Carlson a cup of coffee. (Alex nods and leaves. Richard pats Mrs. Carlson comfortingly) Mindy: I guess I should look on the bright side. It's not like this can get any worse. I mean this is it ... this is bad as it gets, right? (Richard is silent) (George enters Dr. Bailey's room. Bailey is pacing around. All of her stuff is piled on the table in front of her bed) George: Dr. Bailey, I was just... Dr. Bailey what... Bailey (interrupts): Can someone find me my suitcase? I need my suitcase. I'm going home. George: Dr. Bailey, you're having a baby. Bailey (angry and upset): There's not going to be any baby born today. You hear me? I'm holding it in! (George looks shocked) I'll have him tomorrow. Just not now. Not like this. No! Just, no. (She has another contraction and struggles not to cry) I'm going home. I'm going home right now. (Crying) I can't. I can't do this without my husband. I can't do this alone. (The contraction passes) Ah! Ok, ok, ok. (Cristina and Meredith are standing in the OR hallway watching Dylan and Burke discuss the situation in the x-ray room) Meredith: So how are they going to remove that amo without klling Hannah and James? (Cristina walks up to the outside of the OR with Hannah and James) Meredith: Cristina! (Meredith walks up to her quickly) The bmb squad guy said you're supposed to stay away from there. Cristina (peers into the O.R through the window on the door): Is it me or is she shaking? (They both look in. They see Hannah shaking and squeezing the ampoule bag) Meredith: Is she squeezing that ambu bag by herself? Cristina: Where is Dr. Milton? (They open the door slowly. Hannah is by herself and is very pale. She's also shaking very badly but still squeezing the bag. She's very nervous and teary-eyed and scared) Meredith: Hannah? (Hannah looks at them) Where's the anesthesiologist? Hannah: He um ... he left. (To herself) He didn't wanna die. (She struggles not to cry and breathes erratically) Meredith: Hannah. Hannah: I think I'm going to take my hand out now. (X-ray room with Burke and Dylan) Dylan: When the hell are people going to learn? Burke: Well it may not be as bad as it seems. Dylan: Her hand is holding that device steady. Burke: Or maybe her hand is simply in there with the amo. We can't know. Dylan: Well my guys talked to the friend. That device is home made which means it's unstable and very unreliable. It could be a dud but we have no way of knowing. Add that to the fact you've got a surgeon in the OR next door refusing to leave. (Burke looks surprised at that) And a nervous paramedic's hand in the body cavity. Burke: It's definitely as bad as it seems. Dylan: That's what I'm saying. Cristina (calls from the other OR): Hey, somebody help! Help here! (They all sprint from the room and across the hall to the other OR. Dylan and the other bmb squad guy to leave. He and Burke enter the OR. Cristina is now pumping the ambu bag. Meredith is standing next to Hannah trying to comfort her) Hannah (upset): I think I'm going to take it out now. Meredith: Ok we're almost to the finish line. You can do this. Hannah (crying): No, no. No, I just want to take it out and be done with it. Burke: Hannah. It won't be much longer. Remember you're keeping him from bleeding out. Hannah (very upset): No! (gasps) I am 22 years old! I should not even be in here! This is some kind of mistake! Dylan (to Burke): She's panicking. We need to clear the room. Meredith: I'm not leaving. Burke: Grey, let's move! Meredith: I'm not leaving her. Dylan: Get everyone out now Dr. Burke. Burke: She's my intern. I am responsible for her. (Meredith has her hand on Hannah's arm that is inside James. Everyone starts talking at once) Hannah: No, it's gotta come out! It needs to come out! Burke: Yang, go with Dylan! Cristina: You go with Dylan. Meredith: It's alright. Hannah, look at me. Hannah (shakes her head): NO! It's gotta come out. No, NO! Meredith: Hannah, look at me. You can do this. Dylan: Hannah, you need to calm down. You need to relax. Everything's gonna be fine. Hannah (crying): No! Burke: Hannah. Hannah. Meredith: Hannah. You can do this. Hannah: No. It has to come out. Burke: No, you keep it there. Just a little while longer. Hannah (yells): I have to! I have to! (She pulls her hand fast. Burke, Dylan and Cristina all fall to the ground with the arms above there heads. Meredith is still standing. Hannah runs to the door. She opens it and leaves a bloody handprint on the wall as she runs out of the room. Meredith just stares after Hannah. The door closes slowly) (Cristina stands up slowly and sees that Meredith now has her hand inside James Carlson. Burke stands up as well) Cristina (looks shocked and whispers): Meredith. Meredith (to herself): What did I do. Oh, god. (Dylan is standing up as well. Burke moves to go up to Meredith) Dylan: Just stay right where you are. Nobody move. Stay exactly where you are. (Meredith takes in a slow deep breath) Meredith (whispers to herself): What did I do? What did I do? What did I do? What did I do? What did I do? (She takes a deep breath) What did I do? (Breathes again) What did I do? What did I do?	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x16 - It's the End of the World Pt.1"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x17: (As We Know It) (Part 2) Original Airdate: 2/12/2006 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Peter Horton (SGH) (Hallway) MVO: In hospitals they say you know. You know when you're going to die. (Bailey is standing in her patient room looking despondent) MVO: Some doctors say it's a look patients get in their eyes. (Bailey is doubled over in pain over her bed) MVO: Some say there's a scent. The smell of death. Something. There's just some kind of sixth sense. When the great beyond is heading for you. You feel it coming. (OR where Derek is still operating on Tucker) MVO: Whatever it is. It's creepy. (Addison is by herself in the doctor's lounge sitting on a couch looking very upset) MVO: Because if you know. What do you do about? Forget about the fact you're scared out of your mind. (Linen closet where it appears Alex and Izzie who are wrapped around one another, appearing naked, just finished having sex) MVO: If you knew this was your last day on Earth, how would you want to spend it? (Meredith's face looks panicked from the last episode after putting her hand in Mr. Carlson) (Richard is on the phone in an office behind the nurses' station. George is watching from the nurses' station looking concerned. Izzie and Alex come up to him, fixing up their clothes) Izzie: What's going on? George: Uh something happened in OR 3. Alex: What? George: I don't know. All I know is that Hannah the paramedic, she's missing. (Richard comes out of the office and walks by them) George: Chief, what's happened? Richard: Quiet board. A quiet board is what's happened. (He walks away) (Burke is entering OR 2 where Derek is operating on Tucker. Burke is wearing a flak jacket) Burke: Dr. Shepherd? Derek (a little surprised): Dr. Burke. Burke: How's it going? Derek: He's got a second bleed under the skull base. If I do what the textbooks say. He could lose the power of speech, herniate through the first craniotomy and die. Burke: What's your other option? Derek: Well if I do what I wanna do ... he could lose the power of speech, herniate through the first craniotomy and die. Burke: Well good luck with that. Derek: Thanks. (He turns to Burke) Is there something you want? Burke: You know it was really stupid of you not to evacuate? Derek (nods): You too. Burke: Yeah I know. Derek: We should consider a change in profession. Burke (half chuckles): Yes, we should. Derek: Now can you operate and remove the device from the guy? Burke: After the bmb squad is through assessing him, I'm going to try. Derek (nods): Gotta say I don't wanna be the guy that kills Bailey's husband. Burke: Well I don't wanna be the guy that kills us all. (They exchange a look) Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Dr. Burke. (Burke leaves. Notice he doesn't mention Meredith's new predicament) (OR 3 where Dylan is now slowly strapping a flak jacket up to Meredith. He is wearing one himself. Cristina is already wearing a flak jacket and squeezing the ambu bag) Dylan: You realize how stupid that was. Cristina: It was Mer. Incredibly stupid! Meredith (to Cristina): Ok you know when you don't need to be made fun of? Like when you've got your hand inside a body that's got a bmb in it and a stranger is Velcro-ing a flak jacket to your boobs. Cristina: Ok. Dylan: You've got a sense of irony. Meredith: Only when things are really ironic. (She turns to Cristina) ... I had a feeling. (Cristina sh*t Meredith an 'omg I can't believe you'd say that' look. Meredith is referring to her 'might die feeling' she had that morning last episode) Dylan: What's that? Meredith: Nothing. (Burke is walking down the OR hall contemplatively. He stands for a moment before walking determinedly into OR 3. He walks in. Dylan is now standing against the table against the wall watching. Burke walks up to Cristina) Burke (in a low voice): Time for you to go. Cristina: No, I'm staying. Burke: There's nothing more you can do here. We've got it covered. (Cristina doesn't move) Cristina, this is not another clueless surgery. This amo can go off at any time and kll everyone in this room. Do you get that? You can not be in here. Cristina: Do you think this is about surgery... Burke(interrupts more adamant than ever and whispers into her ear): Cristina I can not do this with you in here! I can not think! (Cristina just looks to Meredith) Meredith: We'll be fine. (Cristina just stares) It's ok. (Cristina nods and Burke takes over for her) Cristina (to Burke): You know in the movies how there's always the heroes and then there's the other guy? You know the guy who sees danger and runs in the opposite direction? Burke: Yes. Cristina: Be the other guy. (Meredith watches them teary-eyed. Cristina leaves the OR. Meredith takes a deep breath to calm herself) Meredith (to Dylan): So you have a plan right? (she nods to herself) You have a way to get me out of this right? (He just stares back at her) (Intern locker room where George, Alex and Izzie are sitting on the floor against the lockers) George: I feel colors are brighter. Does anyone feel like colors are brighter? My head hurts. Alex: It's adrenaline. You have the smell thing, cause I have like this crazy- Izzie (interrupts): Shut up! Alex: Are you ok? George: Of course she's not ok. How could she possibly be okay? You're insensitive. Alex: I'm not insensitive. Izzie: Would you two just shut up! Nobody cares if the blue is bluer or if you have super smelling powers! Meredith could die. Any minute she could just ... die. Actually stop living ... dad ... Corpse ... (she starts giggling) I'm sorry. Sorry. God, I have really inappropriate reactions to this kind of stress. I'm sorry. (she gathers herself) Hold on. Mmm. George: Ok? Izzie: Yeah. Alex: Should we like, should we like do something? Call Meredith's family? George: We are Meredith's family. (Izzie stars giggling again) Izzie: I'm sorry. (She gets up and leaves chuckling. Alex gets up and follows her) George: We are Meredith's family. (Cristina is entering OR 2 all scrubbed up and flak jacket gone. Derek is still operating) Derek: This area has been evacuated Dr. Yang. Cristina: And somehow you're still here. Derek: I have to be here. You don't. Cristina: Yes I do. Derek (warningly): Dr. Yang. Cristina (adamant): Yes I do. Besides I guess you need a little company. (Derek resigned lets her put on a gown) Cristina: How's he doing? Derek: He's hanging in there. How's the paramedic Hannah doing? Cristina: Hannah? Derek: The girl with the bmb. Cristina: Oh, uh she's hanging in there too. (Floor with the busy people circling around. Addison is talking to Richard at the nurses' station) Addison: Calm down. Richard (upset): Calm down? I have an evacuated O.R. A bmb in a body cavy. A missing paramedic! An intern with her hand on the explsive! Two world class surgeons in harm's way! (George walks up behind them) A man on a table who may bleed out at any moment unless we move the bmb from his chest! And my favorite resident in labor who you're now telling me refuses to push! Really, calm down? You really want to say to me calm down? Addison: Ok don't calm down! George: Dr. Bailey is scared, sir. It's a day to be scared. Addison: She won't let me examine her but from what I can tell her contractions are 40 seconds apart and she's refusing to push. The baby could go into distress and if she doesn't come out of this and soon, then I'm gonna need an O.R to do an emergency C-section. Richard: I can't give you an O.R Addie! I don't have an O.R to give. Can't you convince her to push? Bailey's rational. Addison: She's not Bailey right now! She's a woman in labor whose husband is in surgery next to a bmb. Richard: So is yours. Addison: This is about Bailey. I need an O.R. Richard: I don't know what to tell you. Addison: Look Richard, we have about an hour to change Bailey's mind and then I'm going to need you to get me an O.R. Build me an O.R. Find me a helicopter to fly me to any O.R in the city. Otherwise instead of having a baby, she'll be losing one. (Addison walks off. Richard gives George a look and George scurries off. Richard sits down looking very stressed out. Nurse Debbie comes up to him) Debbie: Here's the blueprints you asked for Chief. (She hands Richard some rolled up blueprints) Richard: Ah, thanks. (Izzie is sitting down by herself in the linen closet looking upset. Alex comes in and sits down next to her. She smiles to herself) Izzie: I laugh at funerals. Alex: I don't go to funerals. (Izzie smiles. She looks at him and then starts kissing him) Alex: Izzie. Iz. (He looks at her and Izzie pulls away) Izzie (upset): I was jealous. I was jealous of Meredith and the surgery and I ... I was ... jealous and now ... I was jealous, Alex. (Alex leans and strokes Izzie's face. He leans in and kisses her) (OR 3 where Meredith is still there. Burke is sitting on a chair watching. Someone is squeezing the ambu bag but they're not shown clearly) Meredith: Is this the strangest thing that's ever happened in your OR? Burke (nods): I'd have to say that it is. Meredith: Good, cause I'm very competitive. Burke: All the best surgeons are. (Bailey's room where she's sitting on a chair in pain. George is standing in front of her) George: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd just talked to the Chief. They're really worried about you. She's on the phone with Mercy West right now to see if they have any OR's available. Bailey: I need someone to drive me home. George: They're talking about doing an emergency C-section. Bailey: They can talk all they want. I'm not going to Mercy West. This baby is not coming out. I need a ride! I can't focus enough to drive myself. (her voice cracks) And Tucker ... I need a ride. George: You could lose it! You know this! Bailey: I told you already. I'm not having this baby until tomorrow. George: This baby could die before it's even born! Bailey (yells): Can you give me a ride home? George: Dr. Bailey... Bailey: Then get out! (George leaves the room) (Richard is looking over the blueprints of the OR floor in a conference room by himself. He takes of his glasses looking very concerned. Mindy comes to the door) Mindy: Is, is there any news? Richard: What? (he realizes it's Mindy) Oh I'm sorry Mrs. Carlson. Mindy: My husband. I was wondering if there was any news because you look so worried. And I heard this doctor saying that even though that girl's got her finger on the tear in his heart, that my husband is losing blood. Every second he's losing blood. Which means he could die? He could die? I ask because I know you'll me the truth because you look so worried. Richard: Mrs. Carlson ... (he's about to lie to her but changes his mind) Yes it's possible he could bleed out and die if we don't operate soon. Mindy (nods): Okay. Okay. Thank you for telling me the truth. (she starts to cry) I'll just ah, I'll just go wait over here. (She walks away) Richard (yells out): Look will someone give me an update! And where's the head of the bmb squad? (Richard puts his glasses back on and turns back to the blueprints. Dylan comes up to the door) Dylan: I'm right here and we're good to go. My team's in place. Dr. Burke is ready. Patient's in sab condition. We can have the bmb out in under 10 minutes if I'm not interrupted again. Richard: In the OR we put our patients under general anesthesia. Dylan: Yeah? Richard: That involves a steady flow of oxygen. (Dylan looks concerned suddenly and walks into the room) Dylan: Well can't you turn off the oxygen in my OR? Richard: I can and I have. But this is your OR (he points to the blueprints) This is the OR's floor main oxygen line. (It seems to be directly under the OR they're in) (Linen closet where Alex and Izzie are putting their clothes back on) Alex: It's gonna be okay. Izzie: You don't know that. Alex: It's just what you say. Izzie (half smiles): I know. (She moves to leave) Alex: Where you going? Izzie: I cant just.. I, I gotta do something to help. ... Thank you. For saying that it's going to be okay. Even if it's just what you say. (She leaves the linen closet) (Burke and Dylan are whispering to each other at the doorway of OR 3. Meredith watches) Meredith: Stop it. (They stop whispering) I'm not a patient. Dylan: What? Meredith: The two of you are looking at me the way we look at patients. Like I'm going to freak out at any minute. I'm not gonna freak out so whatever it is just tell me straight out. (Burke moves away from the door to stand directly in front of Meredith) Burke: The main oxygen line runs directly under this room. Meredith: Ok. (Burke just stares at her) Not ok. ... Well? I need one of you to tell me what this means exactly. Because I think I know what it means. But I tend to be glass half-empty these days so I won't trust what I think it means. Because what I think it means if the bmb were to explode over the oxygen line the whole hospital could blow up. ... And that's just crazy right? (Richard is standing out in front of the nurses' station looking even more stressed out. He's talking to a nurse) Richard: I need an answer on when they're gonna start moving. (The nurse nods and leaves. Izzie and Alex come up to him) Izzie: Chief. Richard: Look I'm busy! Izzie: I know. I know you're really very busy but if there's something, anything that we could do to help it would really would be very helpful. (Richard doesn't look so good and is breathing heavily) We need an assignment, sir. (Richard looks in really bad shape) Richard: Look, I need, I need... Izzie (concerned): Chief? (Richard is breathing really erratically) Izzie: He's pale and diaphoretic. Alex: Check his pulse. We need some help over here! Izzie: Come on let's move people! I'll get a wheelchair. (Richard backs against the wall and looks really panicked) Alex: I think he's having a heart attck. (OR 3. Dylan walks into the OR as well) Dylan: Meredith, all it means ... is that we have to move. Burke: Move? Dylan: That's right. We have to move. (he whispers to Burke) Now because I don't want to spend another second in this room. Meredith: Wait. I can't wiggle my fingers because we can't shift the amo. And now you want to roll out the entire gurney? Dylan: Well that's our safest, safest option. (Dylan nods to Burke) Burke: So we move. Not a problem. We can do this. You handling this Grey? Meredith: I'm handling this. (Richard is lying down on a hospital bed in a patient room. Izzie and Alex are standing in there and there is another doctor also there checking Richard) Richard: So how's it look? Doctor: Well it's hard to say for sure. EKG is normal. (The doctor leaves the room) Alex: That's good news. Richard: That's it I'm getting up. Izzie: Sir! You should really wait until we get the blood work back. Richard: I'm not listening Stevens. (All of sudden Adele stands up and has been apparently sitting in the room the whole time) Adele: You can talk to me Dr. Stevens. Izzie (unsure): Um ... um ... okay. Your husband should really wait until we get the blood work back for confirmation. Richard: Okay! Out! Both of you! (Alex and Izzie nod and leave quickly. He moves to get up) Richard: I'm getting up. (Adele moves to stop him) Adele: You're going to have to body check me to do so. Richard: Adele, there is a bmb! Adele: I heard. (She tucks Richard in bed and looks over him comfortingly. Richard just looks resigned and kinda caged in) (Addison is sitting on an empty gurney in the middle of an empty hallway looking very upset. George walks up to her) George: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. What are we gonna do? I mean about Dr. Bailey. Can, can we drug her? Addison: Against her will? George: No. Well ... yes. (Addison looks annoyed) Can't we force her to push? If ah declare her temporarily insane. Addison (lets out a noise of frustration): Ah. You want me to declare Miranda Bailey, Miranda Bailey incompetent? Do you think that will help? Do you think that will make her more inclined, more comfortable giving birth? George: I don't know that's why... Addison (interrupts): Do you think I'm not doing everything I can to help her? I mean do you think I'm just out here because I don't know feel a little lazy, just need a little me time? George: I'm just asking. Addison (yells): Stop asking! Because no matter what you ask the answer is I don't know. I'm doing everything thing I can! Everything I can! Miranda Bailey's husband is in mortal danger. Actual mortal danger! And there's not a lot I can say to comfort her right now because there's not a lot that anybody can say to comfort me! I'm doing my best! Dr. Bailey is doing her best! And I need you to do your best! And I need it to better than standing here asking me the world's most stupidest question! I don't know O'Malley! (George nods slightly looking a little upset and he leaves) (George is sitting down on the stairs of a stairwell. He slams the door shut with his foot obviously frustrated. He hears a crying noise coming from a few flights of stairs below. He stands up and looks down) George: Hey. (The person looks up and it's Hannah the paramedic) You okay? (Hannah just looks down and George goes down the stairs to meet her) George (takes her hand): Wait, are you bleeding? Hannah: I, I think I fell ah... I was running um- and I fell. It's okay. George: Are you Hannah? Hannah (nods slightly, quiet): Yeah. (OR 2 where Derek is still operating on Tucker. Cristina turns around and is distracted by the activity happening outside) Derek: Micro-scissors Dr. Yang. (he notices her staring) What is so interesting out there? Cristina: I uh...I'll... (She rips of her gown and heads out the door) (OR hallway where Dylan, 2 other bmb squad guys and Meredith are moving the gurney with James very, very slowly) Dylan: You're doing great. Meredith: Let's go over it again. Dylan: The device is shaped like a rocket. About 8 inches long. We're going to have everything ready. Dr. Burke's team is going to be in place. My team is going to be in place. And I'm going to ask you to take the hand that you have in Mr. Carlson, wrap it around the device... Meredith (finishes for him): And pull it out. Dylan: Level. Pull it out while keeping it level. (The camera pans down to the floor where the floor is slightly elevated by a silver bar that stretches across it. They don't seem to realize that they're approaching this bar) Meredith: You know I don't like you very much. Dylan: I don't like you either. (Cristina comes up in the hallway) Cristina: What are you doing? Dylan (angry): Stop. Stop right where you are. (They stop moving) Cristina: What are you doing? Dylan: I thought Dr. Burke told you to leave. Meredith: We're moving to an O.R further away from the oxygen line. You know in case we blow up. Dylan: I distinctly remember him telling you to leave! Cristina: Where is he? Meredith: He's prepping the O.R. Cristina: Then he'll never know will he. Dylan: You stay over there. You stay over there! (He directs Cristina to stand a few feet away from them in an adjacent hallway but she can still see everything and they can see her) Dylan (to Meredith): You ready? (Meredith nods and they start wheeling past Cristina slowly) Meredith (to Cristina): Tell me something. Cristina: What? Meredith: Cristina, I have my hand on a bmb. I'm freaking out and most importantly I really have to pee. Tell me anything. Cristina: He told me he loved me. Last night. He thought I was sleeping but I heard him say it. Meredith: Burke loves you. Cristina: Yeah. (Dylan looks at Cristina and she notices) Mind your own business. Meredith: Burke loves you. Cristina: Okay everybody has problems. Meredith: Well are you going to say it back or- Cristina (interrupts): Of course not. He didn't say it to me. He said to the sleeping me. Reciprocity is not required. Besides he might blow up. Meredith: Excellent point. (All of sudden they ht the metal bar across the floor and the whole gurney bangs to a stop) Dylan: All right everybody. Let's keep placing one foot in front of the other. Nice and slow. Alright Meredith we're almost there. Meredith (closes her eyes): Okay. Dylan: We're almost there. Nice and Easy. You ready? Meredith (nods): Yeah. Dylan: Alright let's go. Nice and slow. (They move the gurney slowly over the bar on the floor and continue on) Cristina: You had to say you were going to die today. Meredith (shrugs): I told you. (The Pit where George is sitting with Hannah cleaning up her hand) George: It's not to deep but, you are going to need a couple of stitches. (Hannah nods) Hannah, uh is there someone you'd like me to call? Family or maybe friends? Hannah (shakes her head): No. ... That doctor ... George: Dr. Grey. Meredith. Hannah (nods): Is she? George: She's still there. Hannah: So she's still alive. George: She's alive. Hannah (sighs in relief): She's still alive. (She looks upset) George: Dr. Milton shouldn't have left you. He's a coward. Hannah: I'm a coward. George: No. Hannah: I ran away. ... You think you're going to be different. You think you're gonna be the kind of person who stays and does something. (she shakes her head) You know a good man in a storm. I'm a paramedic. I'm supposed to stay and do something. I'm not supposed to run away. I'm not supposed to hide under the stairs cause I left two people to die. I'm supposed to stay and do something. I ran away. (Alex is entering through a door into another floor of the hospital. He stops at a nurses' station where Izzie is standing) Alex: Well blood work's back. The Chief had an anxiety attck. (he sighs) Who's gonna tell him? Izzie: Um, I gave you sex in a linen closet. You tell him. Alex (nods): Fair enough. (He walks off and Izzie smiles) (Bailey's room where Bailey is lying in bed refusing to move. Addison is in there with her trying to get to her move. George is standing at the door watching) Addison: Okay, Dr. Bailey let's go. (She tries to get Bailey to sit up but Bailey just pushes away crying) Addison: Dr. Bailey I need you to turn on your back. I need you to push. Bailey: Leave me alone. Addison: Miranda. (to a nurse that is also in there) I can't let her go any longer. I'm gonna go tell Richard that he has to get us an O.R, okay? (Addison moves to leave through the door as George moves forward) George: Dr. Bailey, I'm surprised at you. I really thought...this is not how I thought you would do this. (Addison stops at the door) Addison: Dr. O'Malley I don't think that... George (ignores Addison and moves to Bailey's bedside): I truly... I expected more. Addison: George. (George takes a damp cloth and wipes it against Bailey's arm. Addison moves back into the room and watches. George leans down to talk to her) George: You're Dr. Bailey. (she cries a little) You don't hide from a fight. You don't give up. You strive for greatness. You Dr. Bailey, you are a doer. And ... I know your husband is not here and I know that there are a lot of things going on here that we have no control over. But this ... (he takes his hand and lifts up her chin for her to look at him directly) this ... we can do. Ok? (Bailey half nods, crying) Ok. (Addison starts moving to prepare Bailey while George helps Bailey sit up. He gets on the bed and sits behind her to support her) George: Let's have this baby. (OR where the gurney carrying James is now in place. Burke is there with his team as is Dylan) Burke (to Dylan): We're ready when you are. Dylan: We're good. Meredith? Meredith (looks scared): Yeah. Burke: I'm going to extend the wound. When I cut the bleeding is going to intensify. If we're going to save Mr. Carlson you have to pull the amo out immediately. Dylan: But remember remove it while keeping it level as possible. (Meredith nods) Nice and easy. No quick movements. Level. Meredith: Right level. Burke (to Meredith): You ready? Meredith (teary-eyed): I uh ... ... Do I have a choice? Burke: You have to be ready. Meredith: Yeah I guess. Burke: Scalpel. Meredith: I guess I'm ready. (Burke starts cutting into Mr. Carlson) (Cristina enters OR 2 with Derek and walks up to them) Derek: How's it going out there Yang? Cristina: Everything's fine. Derek: How's the girl with bmb? Cristina: How's he doing? Derek: He's almost there. (to a scrubs nurse) Suction. Irrigate. That's great. (to Cristina) You didn't answer my question Yang. Cristina: Sir? Derek: How is the girl with the bmb? (Cristina looks conflicted for a second) Cristina: It's Meredith. (Derek turns to her startled) The girl with bmb is Meredith. (All of a sudden the heart monitor connected to Tucker flat lines) (O.R with Meredith, Burke and the O.R team) Burke: I'm good. She can go. Dylan: All right now Meredith. Wrap your hand around the nose cone. (Meredith looks like she isn't listening but just staring off to the side tear-eyed) Meredith. Burke: Grey. (she kinda snaps out of it a little but stares off again) Grey. (O.R 2 with Derek and Tucker. The heart monitor is still flat lined) Derek: Damn it we're losing him. (to a scrubs nurse) Push one of epi! Cristina: Thready pulse. Anesthesiologist: Epi in! Derek: Nothing. Okay get me a wet lap. Nurse: Here. Derek: We're gonna roll him on 3. Okay let me know when everyone's ready. Let's go. We gotta go. Come on! Let's go! (O.R with Meredith) Dylan: Meredith. (Meredith pulls down her scrubs mask) Meredith: George and Izzie shouldn't have to move out of the house. Dylan: No. You hear me. Meredith (to Dylan): You should make sure. Make sure that they, that they get to stay in the house. (Bailey giving birth in her patient room) Bailey: Augh! George: Push! Addison: A little bit more. I can see the top of the head. Bailey: I need stop. Need stop. (She falls back against George) George: Okay that was good. (He silently pulls his hand back and makes a pained expression as if she's broken his fingers) George: That was very good. That was- Okay. (He helps Bailey sit up right again) Are you ready? Addison: Ready? Bailey (nods): Okay. George: Push. Bailey: (she pushes) Oh god! (O.R with Tucker and Derek) Derek: Come on, come on, come on, come on. (Cristina is performing manual CPR) Cristina: Wide complex bradycardia. Derek: Push one more of epi and one more of atropine. Come on, come on. You can not do this Tucker! You can not quit on me! Come on, keep going. You can't quit! (O.R with Meredith. She's looking off to the side again and teary-eyed. A flash light is shone in her face) Burke: Grey. His pressure's dropping. Grey. (He shines the light again on her face) Meredith: I can't! No. I can't. This is crazy. Burke, you gonna go? You go. (to Burke and Dylan) Both of you should go. Burke: Nobody's dying today, Grey. Dylan: Meredith I want you to look at me. (She is staring at Burke) Look at me. (She turns her gaze to Dylan who is standing directly in front of her) I know this is bad. And I know that I'm this ass who's been yelling at you all day. So you pretend that I'm not. You pretend that I'm someone you like. Whatever you need. But you need to listen to me. (Meredith looks down and then looks back up again. The whole screen flashes white and there is no sound aside from Meredith's breathing and the heart monitor. She sees Derek standing in front of her) Meredith: I'm scared. Derek: I know. You can do this. It'll be over in a second. ... You can do this Meredith. Meredith: Ok. Derek: Ok. (The camera pans out and shows the two of them just standing in front of each other an empty O.R, identical to the opening scene of the previous episode. Gradually the real surroundings fade in and 'Derek' turns back into Dylan. Meredith starts to pull out her hand) Dylan (whispers): Gently. (Meredith looking very scared and teary-eyed begins to pull out the tip of the bmb) (OR with Tucker. Cristina is desperately performing CPR but the monitor is still flat-lined) (Bailey still in labor) Bailey (she's pushing): Augh! Addison: Good. Stop. Bailey: Stop? Addison: Stop. (George looks up at the mirror hanging against the wall so that Bailey and him can see the actual birth) George: Oh! Dr. Bailey I can see the top of his head! (Addison grins) He's got a lot of hair. Oh he's cute. Bailey: O'Malley? George: Yeah? Bailey: Stop looking at my va-jay-jay! (George looks away instantly) George: Yes ma'am. (OR where Tucker is still flat lined. Cristina has now stopped CPR but is squeezing an ambu bag. Derek looks panicked and rips off all his equipment off himself. He pushes people out of the way and starts CPR himself) (Bailey doing another push and obviously squeezing the life out of George's hand as shown by the expression on his face) (Tucker's OR where he is still flat lined. Everyone looks despondent. Derek backs away from Tucker slowly. All of sudden he thumps a fist hard against Tucker's chest. The monitor is still flat-lined) (Meredith slowly pulling out more of the bmb) (Tucker's OR. All of a sudden the heart monitor starts beeping again. His heart rate is rising up. Cristina nods at Derek) (Meredith crying a little as she hands the bmb very careful to Dylan who is holding his hands out stretched to receive it. She removes her hand) Dylan (whispers): You did good. (He starts moving slowly away from the operating table. Meredith also backs away as Burke starts operating on Mr. Carlson. Dylan heads out the door. Meredith slowly follows him. She walks out the door and stands in front of it watching. Dylan is a few steps away ready to pass it off to another bmb Squad member who is standing ready to receive the bmb. All of a sudden there is a large explsin. Dylan is instantly blown up. The force is so strong that it flings Meredith backwards onto her back. It blows up various things in the hallway including nearby windows of adjacent OR's and scrub rooms. Burke's nor Derek's OR are affected. Meredith is caked in debris, blood and flesh. The other bmb squad member appears to have been blown up as well. The lights are all blown and everything seems dark and dank. Some pieces of paper are light in small fires. Meredith appears to be unconscious lying on the floor) (OR floor where Richard is on the phone at the nurses' station. Adele is there with him as is Alex) Richard: What the hell is happening down there? Who's coming up? Ok. (He hangs up the phone) Richard (to Adele): Come on sweetheart. (Adele nods and he walks to in front of an elevator as she follows) Richard (calls out): Alright people! They're coming up. (Hannah who was sitting in the waiting room lifts up her head. Alex moves to go tell Mrs. Carlson. A whole group of interns, doctors and nurses gather around Richard waiting for whoever is coming up the elevator. The elevator doors open revealing Burke and Derek standing in there. They walk up to the group) Burke: Derek. Derek: Preston. (They reach the group) Mindy: Dr. Burke. Is my husband um ... alive? Burke: Yes. Mindy: Is he ... gonna stay alive? (Burke notices Hannah standing at the nurses' station a little away from the large group. He points to Hannah) Burke: Thanks to that young lady over there he is. Mindy (crying happily shakes Burke's hand): Thank you. (She walks up to Hannah crying) Mindy: Thank you. Thank you. (She wraps Hannah in a tight hug. Richard nods at Burke and Burke walks off) (The group seems to have dispersed and Derek is walking around looking anxiously as if searching for someone. Richard and Adele notice and Richard walks up to him) Derek (anxious): Where is she? Richard: You had to be a cowboy. (Derek just looks around) Derek: Where, where is she? Richard: She's right here. Addison: Derek. You're okay. (Addison comes up walking fast and hugs Derek relieved) Oh, you're okay. (Derek still hugging Addison gives Richard a look. Adele notices) Adele (to Richard): That is not the 'she' he was asking for. (Female Showers of the locker room. George walks up and peers his head through the door. He sees Izzie and Cristina helping a shell shocked Meredith still in her scrubs and gown into the shower. She's still caked in blood and debris. They remove her scrubs cap and gown but she still has on her pants and shirt. George leaves. Cristina and Izzie help guide her under the shower head and begin washing her hair) (Burke and Cristina's apartment) (Cristina lies down on the bed.) Cristina: Burke, you awake? Burke? ... (Burke is lying across from her softly snoring) I love you too. (Burke continues to sleep and Cristina rolls over and closes her eyes) (Post-op room where Tucker is awake and sitting up right. Bailey is standing there holding their baby boy who is so cute) Bailey: This is our son. (She hands the boy over to Tucker) William George Bailey-Jones. Tucker (smiling): Hello. Hello my little man. Hello.(to Bailey) He's beautiful. (Bailey nods and leans in close and buries her head against Tucker) (Meredith's house) (Meredith is lying in bed looking out the window where it is pouring rain. A knock sounds on her door and Izzie comes in) Izzie: There's someone at the door for you. (Derek is standing in front of the door waiting for Meredith. He sighs. Meredith comes up and stands right in front of him.) Meredith (softly): Hey. (He stares at her looking very relieved) Derek: Hey. You almost died today. Meredith: Yeah. I almost died today. (He looks at her for a bit and then opens the front door to leave) Meredith: I can't ... (he steps back into the house) I can't remember our last kiss. All I could think about was I'm going to die today and I can't remember our last kiss. Which is pathetic, but the last time we were together and happy I ... want to be able to remember that. And I can't Derek. (he nods) I can't remember. Derek: I'm glad you didn't die today. (He goes to leave out the door. Meredith turns around to back upstairs. He stops her when he speaks standing at the doorway) Derek: It was a Thursday morning. You were wearing that ratty little Dartmouth t-shirt you look so good in. The one with the hole in the back of the neck. (he chuckles a little) You'd just washed your hair and you smelled like some kind of flower. I was running late for surgery. You said you were gonna see me later and you leaned to me, you put your hand on my chest and you kissed me. Soft. It was quick, kinda like a habit. You know, like we'd do it every day for the rest of our lives. You went back to reading the newspaper and I went to work. That was the last time we kissed. (He moves to leave again almost closing the door when Meredith speaks) Meredith: Lavender. (he steps back in) My hair smelled like lavender from my conditioner. Derek (nods): Lavender. (smiles) Huh. (He leaves and Meredith starts to head back up to her room) MVO: If this was your last day on Earth, how would you wanna spend it?	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x17 - As We Know It Pt.2"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x18: Yesterday Original Airdate: 2/19/2006 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Rob Corn (Burke and Cristina's apartment) (Cristina is listening to music extremely loudly on her Ipod and dancing by herself in the apartment. She's also brushing her teeth and getting dressed at the same time) MVO: After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here's what I've decided. (Cristina puts on her jacket) MVO: There's no such thing as a grown up. (Burke enters the apartment after his morning run all sweaty and stares at Cristina. Cristina instantly stops. Cristina starts dancing quite crazily up towards Burke) MVO: We move on, we move out, we move away from our families and form our own. Burke: Oh, no. I'm all wet. (Burke looks amused and Cristina laughs. She tries to get him to dance but he refuses. She moves up to him and removes his jacket trying to get him to dance. Burke tries to walk by her but she stops him and dances in front of him. He starts dancing with her and Cristina lets out a laugh. A mobile rings. Burke moves to answer it still dancing) Burke: Hello? No, Dr. Burke. (Cristina gargles and spits out her paste into the kitchen sink) Yes. (She wipes her mouth on the dishtowel...Burke looks confused on the phone) Yes I'll let her know. (Cristina continues on dancing. Burke dances in front of her half-heartedly) Burke: That was your landlord. (Cristina removes her earplugs from her Ipod and stops dancing) He wants you to know that there's a minor flood in your apartment. Your other apartment! (Cristina has an uh-oh look on her face and Burke looks less than impressed and walks off. Cristina looks after him with a very guilty expression) MVO: But the basic insecurities, the basic fears and all those old wounds just grow up with us. (Nursing home) (Ellis is sitting down on a chair. Meredith is helping herself to some coffee) Ellis: I'm exhausted. Meredith: Me, too. MVO: And just when we think that life and circumstance have forced us to truly, once and for all become an adult ... (Meredith places the coffee and some food on the table in front of Ellis) Ellis: I was going at it all night in the on-call room. What's your excuse? (Meredith stands up and turns around to face Ellis shocked) MVO: ... your mother says something like that. Meredith: Mom. Ellis: I tell ya that man makes me purr like a kitten. Meredith: Mom! Ellis: When he isn't making me growl like a tiger. Meredith: Stop! (Ellis chuckles to herself) Ellis: And my husband wonders why I'm not interested in him anymore. MVO: Or worse. Something like that. Ellis: If he had any balls at all he would leave on his own. (she shakes his head) No. He plays stupid. He's waiting for me to kick him out. I come home with a hickey on my shoulder. (she points to her shoulder) A hickey! For god's sake like I'm a sex-crazed teenager. (she chuckles) Which let's face it these days I am. And what does Thatcher do? Pretends he doesn't see it. (Meredith just looks stunned at the information) MVO: We get bigger, we get taller, we get older. But for the most part, we're still a bunch of kids. (Locker room) (The interns are getting ready for another day. George is standing from afar watching Meredith sitting down in front of the locker just staring at them) MVO: Running around the playground trying desperately to fit in. (George moves to walk up to Meredith. Cristina enters the locker room and pushes past George) Cristina: You know, he's acting like I committed a crime. Like my apartment is full of stolen goods. (George walks off as Cristina dumps her stuff in her locker ranting to Meredith) Cristina: He's acting like I kept my apartment to hide stolen goods so I can do illegal transactions for money. Meredith: Are you sure he's just not acting like you lied about moving in? Cristina (makes a face): Ok, what's wrong with you? Meredith: My mommy's a filthy whore. (Cristina shrugs) (Another part of the locker room where Izzie is getting ready. Alex is standing in front of her giving her a very suggestive look also getting ready) Izzie: You have dirty in your eyes. Alex (grins): You have dirty in your eyes. Izzie (smiles): I'm not doing dirty with you any more. It was a one time lapse in judgment. Alex: Oh it was a 4 time lapse in judgment. Izzie: Yeah well it's not gonna happen again. Alex (disbelieving): Oh ok. Izzie (smiles): I'm serious! We're friends and it didn't work when we tried to be more than that so ... as fun as it was, it's not gonna happen again. (She looks at him like she wants to have sex right there now) Alex: Stop looking at me. Izzie: I'm not looking at you. I'm rounding. Alex: I'm rounding too. Izzie (smiles): Fine. Alex (smiles): Fine. (Patient room. A middle aged man named Chuck Eaton is lying in the hospital bed. Burke is in there standing with Bailey's interns minus Bailey of course) Meredith: Chuck Eaton. 54. Has stage 3B non small cell lung cancer with possible invasion of the pleura. And a history of COPD. He's had extensive chemo-radiotherapy (Cristina sh*t Burke a look which he returns) with minimal regression of the tumor. He's been admitted for radical and block re-section. Chuck: I was a smoker. The ah oncologist, he explained that I have a 25% chance of surviving the surgery. Burke: Well unfortunately that's about right. If you should elect not to proceed we can make you more comfortable. Chuck: With all do respect ah- there's no way you can make a man dying a slow death comfortable. I'll roll the dice. (Izzie and George are walking down a hallway) George: How would you say I looked today? Would you say I looked nice? Izzie: Well I say you could use a little more lip gloss but yes you're very pretty. George (smiles): Oh you're mean. Izzie: I'm just kidding. You look fine. George: Seriously, how's my breath? (He breathes onto her face) Izzie: George. Would you just talk to her? George: Who, what... Izzie (interrupts): Oh! (Further up ahead she sees Cristina, Meredith and Alex standing with Bailey holding her baby boy Will. She walks up to them) Izzie (in a baby voice): Good morning Dr. Bailey. Hi, big boy! Bailey: Are the OR's up and running? Cristina: Ah yeah fully functional. Except there's some smoke damage to the corridor. Bailey (to Meredith): How bout you? You fully functional? Meredith (nods): I'm fine. How's your husband? Bailey: Take him home tomorrow. (Will makes a cute noise and Bailey does a little baby voice as well) Yes we are. Yeah. Yeah. Izzie (joins in): Oh, you're cute. I know you are. Bailey: Okay this is not a tea party. Go work. Save some lives. (They disperse quickly) Now! (Bailey chuckles and walks down the other way) (Patient room where a teenaged boy named Jake Burton is lying in the hospital bed. Jake has very prominent bony structures on his face making it appear a lot larger than normal. Derek, Cristina, Alex, Izzie, George, Meredith and both Jake's parents are there) Cristina: Jake Burton. 15. Has advanced craniodiaphyseal dysplasia. Was admitted last night after complaining of headaches. Mrs. Burton: He's not a complainer. Mr. Burton: He's been having some nausea as well. Derek: Okay may I? (The parents move aside and Derek moves close to the bedside) Jake, can I get you to sit up please? Jake: Sure. Derek: Right okay. I want you to look right here for me. (He holds up a finger in front of Cristina. Jake looks directly at Cristina) Thank you. (Cristina looks a little uncomfortable and shifts her gaze as Derek checks Jake's eyes) Jake: You know you could pretend I'm a lion. It helps. Cristina: Sorry? Jake: You could pretend I'm a lion and then instead of a really messed up kid you get a talking circus animal which is way easier to look at. (Derek chuckles) Derek: Dr. Yang what's our immediate concern? Cristina: Ah that the bony tumors are growing inward and encroaching on his brain. (Derek nods) (Meredith is typing at a computer standing up at a nurses' station. A very, very hot young man wearing a leather jacket comes up to her and peers over her shoulder. His name is Mark) Mark: Invasive non-cell. With a history of COPD. (he shrugs) That guy's pretty much a goner, huh? Meredith: Sensitivity. I like that in a stranger. Are you new here? Mark: Visiting. Confounded by all the rain and it's only my first day in town. Meredith: You get used to it. (Meredith moves away from the comp and a few feet away. Mark follows her) Mark: Makes me wanna stay in bed all day. Meredith: We just met and already you're talking about bed. Not very subtle. (Derek stands up noticing him through the window of the adjacent office behind the nurses' station. Addison comes up the hallway and looks shocked) Mark: Subtle has never been my strong suit. So ... do you ever go out with co-workers? Meredith (smiles): I um...make it a rule not to. Mark: Then I am so glad that I don't work here. Meredith: Are you hitting on me? In a hospital? Mark: Would that be wrong? Meredith: Meredith. (George is also looking through the window annoyed. They shake hands. All of sudden Derek punches Mark really hard across the face. Mark falls to the ground) Derek (shakes his hand): Aah! Meredith (stunned): What the hell was that?! Derek: That was Mark. (Conference room where Derek is now sitting down. Addison puts an ice pack on it and Derek removes it. Richard is pacing around angrily. Addison sits a few chairs away from Derek) Richard (angry): Punching out people on my surgical floor! My head of Neurosurgery punching out people on my surgical floor! A ddison: Put the ice back on your hand. Derek: My hand is fine! Richard (angry): Put the damn ice on your 2 million dollar a year hand! (Derek places the ice-pack back on his hand) Now, would someone tell me what the hell happened? (Derek gives Addison a look) Addison: That was Mark. Richard (more calm): Who's Mark? Addison: He and Derek used to work together back in New York. ... ... And umm... They ah... We were all close friends. ... Until, Derek found us in bed together. (Richard is silent for a moment) Richard (to Derek): You put your weight behind it? Derek: Yes sir. Richard (nods): Well, alright then. (He leaves. Addison places her head in her hands) Derek: What the hell is he doing here? Addison: I have no idea. (Trauma room where Meredith is cleaning up the large cut on Mark's face) Mark: Derek and I always did have the same taste in women. Meredith: Excuse me? Mark: You're Derek's lusty intern, right? Heard about you all the way back in New York. You're famous. Meredith: Hmm, well I heard about you all the way here in Seattle so I guess we have a lot in common. Mark: We're the dirty mistresses. Meredith: I suppose we are. Mark: My 400 dollar an hour shrink says that because behind this rugged and confident exterior, I'm self destructive and self loathing to an almost pathological degree. Meredith: Hey, we do have a lot in common. Mark: You know it's funny, Derek...(he turns to face Meredith but she grasps his face so he's staring straight so she clean the wound on his cheek) Derek walks in on me naked with his wife actually in the throes. And he just turns around and walks away, but he sees me so much as talking to you and I'm on the ground bleeding. Interesting, don't you think? (Meredith doesn't respond. She places a towel on his shoulder and moves to start suturing his face) Mark: What do you think you're doing? Meredith: You need stitches. Mark: I know. (he holds up a mirror) Hold the mirror. (Meredith gives him a look and hands him the surgical tools. She takes the mirror from him and stands in front of him so he can stitch it up himself) (Out the window you can see Cristina, Alex, Izzie and George all watching from the nurses' station) George: Why is he suturing his own face? Cristina: To turn me on. Alex: Cause he's Mark Sloan. He's like the go-to plastic surgeon on the East Coast. George (shocked): That's the guy Addison was sleeping with? Izzie: You can't really blame her, can you? Cristina: No, not really. George: Yes you can. (Meredith comes up to them) Meredith: McSexy wants an x-ray to check for fractures and I think it's a bad idea if I take him. George: Why? Why? Alex: I'm on it. (Alex leaves) George: Why is it a bad idea? Cristina: McSexy? Meredith: No. Izzie: McYummy. Meredith and Cristina: No. Meredith: McSteamy. Cristina: Oh there it is. Izzie: Yep. (she chuckles) (They all look at Mark through the trauma room window) George: Uh, just ah choking back some McVomit. (He walks off) (George and Izzie are putting on some yellow gowns getting ready to enter the Pit) George: I saw her first! The night she met Shepherd, I had her ear. We talked. And I can't even remember what I said. Izzie: You know how when you haven't had sex for a while and you sort of forget how good it is and you don't really need it as much? George: Yeah, that doesn't happen to guys. (George moves behind to tie up the back of Izzie's gown) Izzie: It's like a beast. A beast that was asleep for a long, long time and now, the beast is wide awake! And wants to be fed. And the food that Alex gave it was good food George. (George yanks back Izzie's yellow gown) George: Something needs to be done about your taste. Izzie: Oh! You're just jealous because your beast is still asleep. George: Heh! My beast isn't asleep. My beast never sleeps! (They rush outside to meet the incoming ambulance) (Meredith is peering into Mr. Eaton's room. She enters and sees that Chuck is assembling a video camera) Meredith: Mr. Eaton. Do you need a hand with that? Chuck: Ah if you could set up the tripod that would be very helpful. Meredith: Are you...what are you doing? Chuck: I'm dying dear. 1 in 4. I ah, I've never done well with odds like that. Some people are lucky. I just never have been. The camera is for posterity. Saying good-bye. Meredith: Do you want me to hold the camera for you? Chuck (teary-eyed): You're very kind. Thank you. (He sits more upright and Meredith turns on the video camera. Chuck wipes his eyes and removes his oxygen tube) Meredith: Okay, we're recording. Chuck: This, this ah this is a message for Susie Zelman. My college sweetheart and the love of my life. (Meredith smiles at this) Susie, I loved you with my whole heart. And I never would have stopped loving you if you hadn't been a vilest (Meredith looks shocked) whore to have ever walked the planet Earth. You deserve that- that drunken imbecile that you slept with and then married. And then at the reunion I met your ugly children, I, I knew that you had done me a real favor! I am so deeply happy that I never have to see your face again. ... Love, Chuck. (Meredith doesn't look too impressed. He puts his oxygen tube back in) Could you please put in a fresh tape dear? (Alex and Mark are looking at x-rays of Mark's face in the x-ray viewing room) Alex: I read about that jaw reconstruction you did using a micro-muscular free transfer from the foot. Mark: You interested in plastics? Alex (nods): Absolutely. Mark: Might want to consider a transfer to New York or Los Angeles. You're not gonna see any heat up here. Alex: Actually, have you ever seen an advanced case of craniodiaphyseal dysplasia? Mark: Lionitis? (Alex nods) (Incoming trauma case. A young woman named Pamela is being wheeled on a gurney by the paramedic named Jill down a hospital hallway in the Pit. George and Izzie and other E.R. doctors are wheeling the gurney as well) Jill: Restrained driver in a minor MVC. Vitals are sab but witnesses saw seizure activity behind the wheel. (They move her onto a hospital bed in the Pit) Pamela: I really don't think I even need to be here. Izzie: You should really let us determine that ma'am. Jill: Witnesses say she was screaming, shuddering and, and cracking her jaw. George: Do you have a seizure disorder that you're aware of? Izzie: Epilepsy? Pamela: Not epilepsy. I don't have epilepsy- Oh no. Oh god it's happening again. Oh no! Oh! Oh! Oh, Oh Ah! (She has a very vocal orgasm) Ah! (She looks upset that just happened) Jill: Was that a ...? George: Did she just have a...? Izzie (breathes out): Orgasm. (Izzie, George and Addison are standing at doorway leading into the Pit) Addison: Spontaneous orgasms? Are you sure? Izzie (smiles): Oh yes. George: Kinda hard to miss. Addison: Okay. (They walk up to Pamela) Miss Calva, I'm Doctor Montgomery-Shepherd. Pamela: It's Pamela. Since we're gonna be talking about you know. May as well get familiar. Addison: Okay, Pamela can you tell me how long this has been happening to you? Pamela: For a few months I guess. Addison: How often? Pamela: About 7 or 8 times a day. Izzie (excited): Everyday? Addison : Eh Dr. Stevens. Izzie: I'm sorry. Everyday? Pamela: Yes. Everyday. Addison: And you haven't seen a doctor about this before? George: It's not exactly something you want to cure is it? Addison : Dr. O'Malley! George: Sorry. (low tone) Is it? (Izzie grins) Pamela: I went to my doctor. He sent me to a shrink. Addison: And he didn't do any tests? (A voice calls out) Mr. Calva: Pammy? Are you back here? (Pamela notices a middle-aged man calling out through the window) Pamela: Oh god no. You called my father?! George: He's your emergency contact person. (Mr. Calva walks up to them) Mr. Calva: Pammy, what happened? You were in an accident? Pamela: I caused the accident Dad. Mr. Calva: You had one of your... Pamela: Episodes. Yeah. Oh no. Dang it. (She grabs a pillow to muffle her orgasm) Mr. Calva (tries to talk over it): She's a junior at UW. She's a math major. Last 3 semesters she made the honor roll. High up in the honor roll. Addison (uncomfortable): Mr. Calva we're gonna run some tests and we're gonna ... we're gonna figure out what's causing your daughter's... Pamela: Episodes. Addison: That's right. Episodes. Ok. (Chuck's room. There is a pile of about 12 tapes made already. He's doing another while Meredith is helping sitting down filming) Chuck: And when you were 14! You stole Laura Brendese right out from under me. You knew how I felt about her! Don't say you didn't know because you knew! And you went for her anyway. What kind of human being does that to his little brother? Meredith: He was 14! Cut him slack for god's sake. Oh. Sorry, I forgot we were recording. Chuck: If you wouldn't mind rewinding just a little bit. Please? (Meredith shuts the video cam and stands up) Meredith: I'm a doctor. Not a videographer and I do need to prep you for surgery. Chuck: But you offered to help. Meredith: When I thought you were saying goodbye. Chuck: I am saying goodbye. None of these people. Not one of them knows how I really feel. My whole life, I've kept it all inside. I, I don't want to carry this with me to my grave. Meredith: You seem like such a nice man. Wouldn't you just rather them remember you that way? Chuck: No. ... Please rewind the tape. (Jake is lying down about to enter an MRI machine. Cristina is standing over him) Cristina: Okay Jake it can get a little cramped in there so you have to try not to move. Jake: Yeah uh this is like my 50th MRI experience. Cristina: Right, sorry. (Cristina presses a button and Jake starts moving into the machine) Jake: It's okay. You have really nice eyes. (Cristina presses the button to stop) I'm just saying you're mostly all surly and hard core but your eyes aren't. I'm really big on eyes. The only part of my face where the tumors aren't growing. Cristina: Yeah, you've got nice eyes. Jake: Yeah? Cristina: Mmm Hmm. Jake: You, you get that I'm jailbait right? (Cristina grins broadly) (Meredith is walking out into the hall. Richard walks by her and up to a nurses' station) Richard: Meredith. Meredith: Chief. ... (she walks up quickly after him) Chief, can I ask you something? Not worked related? Richard: Mmm okay. Meredith: Do you remember my father? (Richard looks up at this) Richard: Of course. Meredith: Do you know why he left? Richard: I believe your mother asked him to. Meredith: Right but do you know why? Richard (shakes his head): No. No I'm sorry I don't. Well have a good day. Meredith: Thanks, you too. (Richard walks off unsettled) (Cristina and Derek are walking down the hall) Derek: Dr. Yang, book an OR please. (They walk to the doorway of Jake's room. Mark is in there with Jake and his parents and Alex) Mrs. Burton: How, how is that possible? Mark: It's precision work. It won't be easy but... (Derek looks furious that Mark is even in there) Derek (interrupts): Dr. Sloan, can I help you with something? Jake: He says he can fix my face. He says he can make me look like normal. (Derek gives Mark a very angry heated look that Mark just stares right back down) (Cristina and Alex are watching through some windows Richard's office where Richard, Mark and Derek are discussing the case very angrily) Alex: What did he say? Did you hear that? Cristina: Did he call him a crack-whore? Alex: You call him that. Cristina: Oh shut up. I'm trying to read lips. Shepherd's gesturing! Big gesturing! (George walks up to them) George: What do you got? Alex: Shepherd, Sloan battling it out. Cristina: Oh it's getting good! Alex: Why what do you got? (George shrugs and acts very casual) George: Just a woman down in the E.R ... having spontaneous orgasms. (Both Cristina and Alex turn to stare at George. They all sprint off. Cristina is a little behind) Cristina: Hey, wait, wait, wait! (Richard's office where the arguing is going down) Derek (angry): That is not the point! Mark (angry): The point is that the kid wants his face fixed! Derek (yells): The point is you wanna get published! Mark: Well yeah and I'm guessing your Chief of Surgery does too. You know how the press love a good before and after sht Richard. Richard (annoyed): Call me Dr. Webber. (Derek looks smug) Richard: Derek out of friendship to you I would very much like to say no to this ... jackass. But as Chief ... Derek (shakes his head): Please don't say it. Richard: Dr. Sloan if you can get the parents to sign a consent form ... (Mark nods) Mark: Round two goes to the jackass. (George, Cristina and Alex are at the doorway entrance to the pit. Pamela is dad across from them with Izzie, Mr. Calva and Addison at her bedside) Cristina: Which one? Which one? George: Twelve o'clock. Pamela: Oh no! Oh no it's happening! (George and the other two walk in a bit. Pamela starts having an orgasm. Cristina and Alex look very amused. Addison notices them and quickly closes the curtain to give her privacy) Addison: Doctors. Is there something you need? George: No. No. (Alex shakes his head) Cristina: No. Addison: Well in that case move on. (They turn around and start heading out back the way they came) Cristina: I don't get what McDreamy and McSteamy see in her. Alex: She's McHot. George: McYeah she is. (Addison is walking down a hallway. Derek comes up in the opposite direction closely followed by Mark. They all stop when they see each other. Derek instantly turns around and walks away. Addison moves to walk away and Mark chases after her) Mark: Oh come on, you're not even a little bit happy to see me? Addison: Go home! Whatever it is you came here to do, just drop it and leave. Mark: Hey we all make mistakes Addison. All 3 of us... Addison (tries to interrupt): Mark. Mark (continues ignoring Addison): but somehow, somehow I lost my best friend and the woman I loved. Addison: Please don't say that. Mark: He doesn't know how we felt. ( Addison looks away) He doesn't know you stayed with me after he left? How do you expect to work out a marriage if you can't even be honest with him? Addison: Why are you here? Mark: For one reason. To bring you home. I miss you, Addison. Addison: I'm in love with my husband Mark. Mark: But he's not in love with you. (Addison looks down) He's in love with that intern and he's not even trying to hide it. Why would even want to stick around for that? (Addison looks at him and then walks away) (Outdoor cafeteria. Meredith and Cristina are already sitting down having lunch. Alex, Izzie and George sit down with them) Alex: I think you're making it up. Izzie: He's not. I saw it four times. (Cristina chuckles) Meredith: What? George: Woman with spontaneous orgasms. Cristina: Oh yeah, uh huh. Meredith: Really? George (to Alex): You're just jealous because you didn't see it yourself. Alex: Totally am. (He gives Izzie a 'dirty' look. Izzie shakes her head at him) Meredith: Spontaneous orgasms? Really? George (to Meredith in a low voice): You look really nice today. Cristina: Any chance they're contagious? Meredith: I mean spontaneous orgasms that would solve so many problems. George (chuckles): It would. It would. (again in a low voice) I think you smell nice too. Cristina: You know it's like you see someone throw up, makes you wanna throw up too. Kinda like that? Izzie: Kinda like. (She glances at Alex. He's grinning and laughing silently at her. She tries not to laugh) You know what? I'm not hungry. (to Alex) Do you hear me? I'm not hungry. Neither is the beast. (She gets up and leaves) Cristina: The beast? Is that like some sly reference to your penis? Alex: Get your mind out of the gutter crack-whore. Cristina: Mmm. (George and Meredith laugh) George: No it's not Alex's penis. It's, you know when you haven't had sex for a long time and you forget how good it is, so you want it less? (Both Cristina and Meredith look at him weirdly) Cristina: Yeah that doesn't happen to me. Meredith: Me either. George: Me either. (CT viewing room where Izzie, George and CT tech guy are waiting for the images of Pamela's scan) George: I grew my hair for her and... Izzie: I know. George: And I don't even think she's noticed. Izzie: You could just try telling her how you feel. (The scans that come up and really blurry) CT Tech: Uh guys, she's moving. Like a lot. (Izzie speaks into the mic) Izzie: Pamela you have to hold still. (You can hear Pamela having an orgasm through the mic. The CT tech looks amused. Izzie switches off the mic) Izzie: Okay. George (amused): That's not helping the beast sleep. Izzie: Ah no. (she shakes her head) No it's not. (Jakes room where Mark is drawing on Jake's face out-lining where he'll be cutting. Cristina and Alex are watching and Jake is looking at it through a mirror) Alex: You're drawing the medial to the tumor. Mark: It's a guideline for what the bone structure should be. Jake: You hear that? I'm gonna have bone structure. (His parents and Derek walk in) Mrs. Burton: Jake. Jake: What do you think am I Dali or more of a Picasso? Mr. Burton: Could you stop doing that for a minute please? (Mark stops drawing. Mr. Burton squats near Jake) Mr. Burton: Jake, Jake I'm sorry. This surgery, the brain surgery is very dangerous. Jake: Oh don't say that. You, you don't get to change your mind. Derek: You know I know Dr. Sloan has made you some big promises ... but the bony tumors inside your skull are bad. Jake: I don't care! Derek: The bleeding will be hard to control. I'm not trying to frighten you. I just want you to understand. Jake: I do understand this...I understand this has nothing to do with plastic surgery. So, so if I'm going to be under the Knfe anyway then I- Mr. Burton (interrupts): The plastic surgery can be done at some- Mark (interrupts): I'm sorry to interrupt. Derek (interrupts): What you need to understand... Mark (interrupts): Excuse me Jake is actually right. (Derek scoffs) No reason to put him through a second surgery and a second round of anesthesia. (Alex nods) It's much safer to just do it all at once. Mrs. Burton: Honey we just want to focus on keeping you alive. Jake: Come on mom. I almost died when I was ten years old. And then again when I was twelve. And then again last year. But, but I'm still alive. I'm still alive. So, so I say we go for it. Mrs. Burton: Jake. Jake: Look, I...I know that you think I'm perfect just the way I am but ... that's your job to do that. But (he shrugs) ... for once in my life I'd like to think to that someone else thought that. Please? (Mr. Burton looks at his wife who is crying) Jake: Please? (Meredith is sitting in an office behind the nurses' station where she is putting the tapes Chuck made into envelopes. Derek comes up to her) Derek: You've given up surgery to go into clerical work? Meredith: I'm fulfilling a patient's dying wish to send hate mail to everyone he's ever met. Derek: Ah. ... Right now I understand the impulse. Meredith: Me too. Why do people cheat? Derek: That's a good question. Meredith: Why do you think she cheated on you? Were you different then? Were you a bad husband? (He is silent for a bit) Derek: I was ah ... (he sighs and sits down next to her) I was just a little absent. Not that that's an excuse for her. Meredith: Do you think things would have been different if you'd had kids? Derek: Do I think she wouldn't have cheated? ... (he shakes his head) I don't know. (They just look at each other for a bit. Mark comes up to the doorway) Mark: Alright man Jake's ready to roll. (Derek looks annoyed at Mark) I'm sorry did I interrupt something? Meredith: No it's fine. (Meredith and Derek both get up and leave through different doors) (CT room. Pamela is sitting in a wheelchair. Izzie is standing in front of her) Izzie: Pamela you should really try and relax. Pamela (nods): I am trying to relax. The episodes happen when I won't relax. (Izzie helps Pamela stand up) Do you really think you can fix this? Izzie: I uh hate to be insensitive but ah would it be the worst thing ever if we can't? I mean ... (she shrugs) Pamela: You know I like sex as much as the next girl. Like in bed or even private. But when you can't go to the movies or drive a car or go to church with your parents. Izzie: Oh my god. Pamela: You know that dream where you show up at high school and you're naked? Izzie: Yeah. Pamela: Yeah well I would really, really like to wake up. (Izzie nods) (OR where Burke is operating on Chuck with Meredith assisting) Meredith: It's crossed the intra-thoracic fascia? Burke: I'm afraid so. I'm gonna have to go into the chest wall. Meredith: He made 17 hate tapes. Burke: I'm sorry? Meredith: Video-tapes of himself. Telling people how much he hated them. Spewing every hurt feeling he ever had. Burke: And he mailed them? Meredith: No he wanted me to but I don't think it's a good idea. He was scared. He was in shock. He wasn't thinking clearly. Burke: That's not for you to decide Dr. Grey. He asked you for something. You told him you would do it. If you don't, that doesn't make you noble. It makes you a liar. (Meredith glances at him) Did you know she kept her apartment? Meredith: Yeah I did. Sorry. (Derek is performing surgery on Jake. The camera pans up to the gallery where the are a lot of doctors watching including Richard and Bailey with her son) Bailey (to her son): Now, Dr. Shepherd is opening the skull cap. That's what he's doing. Yes he is. (Cristina is watching in the OR as is Alex. Mark is standing near the side ready to start the plastic surgery. All of sudden Jake's heart monitor starts beeping rapidly) Derek: Oh, son of a bitch. Alright I need another unit of blood! (Cut up to the gallery) Bailey: Oh no that's too much blood. Derek: Put in the pressure and fusia. Alex: No carotid. We've got V-FIB. (They all start scrambling and yelling different orders as Jake flat lines. Mark grabs the paddles to jolt Jake's heart into starting) (Up in the gallery Bailey shakes her head sad and leaves) (Back down in the O.R Cristina looks sad as the monitor stays flat-lined) (Empty O.R with Jake's dad body. Cristina and Alex are suturing him closed) Alex: Shame he never had his face fixed. (Cristina looks at Alex thoughtfully) (Cristina and Alex are entering an attending locker room. Mark is standing there looking extremely yummy shirtless) Alex: Dr. Sloan? Mark: Yeah? (Morgue with Jake's body on a table. Cristina and Alex are standing there scrubbed up. Mark comes in) Mark: Alright, I got the parents approval. (Cristina and Alex move to put their scrubs masks on) Mark: You don't ... (he shakes his head) really need those. Alex: Right. Mark: Scalpel. (Alex hands him the scalpel) (Chuck's room post-op. Burke is in there at his bedside. Meredith is standing at the end of the bed) Burke: Mr. Eaton, can you hear me? Chuck: Oh god. Ugh. Burke: Don't try to sit up. You're gonna be in pain for sometime. But I'm please to report that we removed the entire tumor. Chuck (smiles): I'm alive? Burke: Yes sir, you are alive. Chuck: My tapes ... (Meredith holds up a bag filled with envelopes) Meredith: Would you like me to throw them away? Chuck (contemplates): No. I'd like you to mail them. I've said my peace. Sometimes a man has to say his peace. (Meredith is at a nurses' station anxiously looking up a phone book. George cheerily comes up to her) George: Mer! Do you want...I want to take you ... out for a drink tonight. Maybe not Joe's, maybe some place where we can talk? (Meredith just rfles through the phone book not really listening) You know there's something I need...I want (he chuckles) to talk to you about. (Meredith is still looking through the book) It's important. (Meredith rips out a page from the phonebook) Meredith: I don't want to make video tapes on my deathbed George. (She walks away leaving George just standing there) (A house) (Meredith is standing outside and rings the doorbell looking sad. She rings the bell again after a bit. A 50 year old or so man walks up to the door. He peers through the glass in the door and looks stunned as he realizes who Meredith is. He opens up the door. Meredith is standing looking teary-eyed) Meredith: She had an affair. Thatcher: Ye...yes. Meredith: Why didn't you stay and fight for us? (Thatches steps outside and closes the door) Thatcher: I did. I tried. Meredith: Why didn't you try harder? You just left. Thatcher (looks unsure and hopeful): Meredith. (Meredith wipes a tear away) Is there anything you need? Anything at all? Meredith: No. ... I don't need anything from you. (She turns around and walks away) (SGH, hallway) (Derek is entering an empty elevator dressed to go home. Addison quickly stops the doors from closing and hops on the elevator as well) Addison: Hey. Derek: Hey. Addison: I haven't seen you all day. Derek: I didn't want to see you today. Addison (upset): It's not my fault he showed up Derek. Derek: I know. (The doors open on a new floor revealing Mark. Mark steps in and Derek and Addison step to the side. Mark hits a button) Mark: Don't bat yourself up. Derek: I'm taking the stairs. (Derek walks out just before the doors close and Mark holds them open) Mark: Oh come on. (Derek stops and turns around) How come you can forgive her but not me? Derek: I didn't forgive her and with you I have no obligation to try! (He walks away and the doors close. Addison leans back against the wall looking upset and tired) Mark (in a quiet voice): Your marriage is over Addison. All you have to do is admit it. (he walks up close to her) And you can come back home with me. (Addison stares at him) I'm going to the bar across the street. (He gently brushes his hand against Addison's face) Meet me there. (He gets off the lift leaving Addison looking very torn and upset) (Cristina and Alex are letting Jake's parents into the morgue to let them see Jake after the plastic surgery. Mrs. Burton strokes Jake's hair) Mrs. Burton: He looks ... peaceful. Mr. Burton: He does. (They leave the morgue and Cristina covers up Jake's body. She leaves and Alex follows, closing the door behind him) (Burke and Cristina's apartment, bedroom) (Cristina is sitting in bed eating Chinese take out and reading a magazine. Burke enters the apartment and walks into the room. He drops his bag to the floor and removes his jacket) Cristina: Um... (He holds up a hand to stop her talking and walks up in front of the bed and paces back and forth) Burke: I am Preston Burke! A widely renowned cardio-thoracic surgeon. I am a professional and more than that, I am a good and kind person. (he sits on the dresser behind him) I am a person that cleans up behind myself! I am a person that cooks well. And you, you are an unbelievable slob. A slovenly, angry intern. I am Preston Burke! And you, you are the most competitive, most guarded, most stubborn, most challenging person I have ever met! And I love you. (Cristina stares at him) What the hell is the matter with you that you won't just let me? (Brief silence) Cristina: I gave up my apartment 20 minutes ago. Burke: Well alright then. (he walks into the bathroom and closes the door) MVO: I've heard it's possible to grow up. I've just never met anyone who's actually done it. (Pamela's room) (Pamela is in hospital bed and Izzie is prepping her for surgery) Pamela: Dr. Stevens, after the surgery will I still be able to...when I want to will I still be able to have (she glances at her sleeping Dad and lowers her voice) you know, episodes. (Izzie smiles) Izzie: Even better Pamela, you'll be able to have orgasms. (She walks to the window and sees Alex standing at the nurses' station) MVO: Without parents to defy we break the rules we make for ourselves. (Alex looks at her and grins. Izzie grins back) (Walkway outside SGH) (George is sitting on bench by himself looking very unhappy) MVO: We throw tantrums when things don't go our way. (Izzie walks up to George) Izzie: Hey. George (upset): She doesn't hear me. (Izzie sits down next to George) Izzie: What? George: She doesn't even hear me when I talk. Izzie: She will if you make her. (George looks at her) George: You fed the beast didn't you? Izzie (half smiles): Twice. (She shrugs. Alex is waiting for Izzie a few feet way. George rubs her arm and then pushes her away. Izzie giggles) Izzie: I'll see you later. George: Bye. (Izzie runs up to Alex and they walk off together) MVO: We whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark. (Nursing home) (Ellis is standing looking out the window at the rain outside. Richard comes up behind her and sighs) Richard: Meredith came to see me today. Ellis: Hmm. Poor baby. Poor thing. Her father left, you know? Richard: I think she knows about us Ellis. I think she's figured it out. Ellis (bemused): She's 5 years old, Richard. (She chuckles and walks to a seat) (Joe's bar) MVO: We look for comfort where we can find it. (Meredith is sitting at the bar looking contemplative. Mark walks in and sits next to her) Mark: This seat taken? Meredith: I guess not. (He sits down and speaks to Joe) Mark: Double Scotch. Single malt. (Joe nods and Mark looks at Meredith) Mark: You look sad. (Joe lays the drink down in front of Mark) Meredith: I just saw my father for the first time in 20 years. Mark: How'd that go? Meredith: Could've gone better. (There's a bit of a silence) What are you still doing here? Mark: I'm hoping Addison shows up. Meredith (surprised): You're still in love with her? Mark: You're still in love with him. Meredith: She won't show you know. Mark: No? Meredith: He's not the kind of guy you leave if you can help it. Mark (sighs): What if you're wrong? What if just this once ... life comes down on the side of the dirty mistresses? (Meredith half smiles) MVO: And we hope. Against all logic. Against all experience. (Derek's trailer) (Derek is lying down on the bed looking tired. Addison is sitting in another room at the kitchen table, looking upset and if she's just been crying) MVO: Like children, we never give up hope. (Meredith's house) (Meredith is standing in her bedroom, wrapped in a robe looking out the window at the rain. There is a knock on the door and Meredith sighs) Meredith: Come in. (George opens the door and enters and closes it behind him. George walks up to her and struggles to speak for a bit) George: I know I'm not a world renowned surgeon and I know I'm not a lot of things that you've gone for in the past. I know. ... But ... I would never leave you ... I would never hurt you ... and I will never stop loving you. (Meredith is silent and just stares at him. She then places her hands on his waist and he does the same to her. She lifts his shirt off him and they lean in to kiss)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x18 - Yesterday"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x19: What Have I Done To Deserve This? Original Airdate: 2/26/2006 Written by: Stacy McKee Directed by: Wendey Stanzler (Meredith's townhouse) (George is sitting on the floor of his bedroom against the door) George Voice Over: Ok so sometimes even the best of us make rash decisions. (George is standing in front of Meredith from last episode in her bedroom. It flashes back to George looking uneasy as he glances back at his door) GVO: Bad decisions. Decisions we pretty much know we're gonna regret the moment, the minute, especially the morning after. (Meredith is removing George's shirt. Meredith's bedroom where Meredith is lying in bed fully dressed also looking uneasy) GVO: I mean maybe not regret, regret because at least you know we put ourselves out there. But still ... something inside us decides to do a crazy thing. (Meredith's alarm goes off and she hits it off) GVO: A thing we know that'll probably turn around and bite us in the ass. (Derek's trailer) (Doc barks and runs up to the bed where Addison and Derek are lying. Derek seems fast asleep and Addison is wide-awake holding the pillow to herself) GVO: Yet, we do it anyway. (Doc barks loudly again and Derek wakes up groggy) Derek: Oh god. I'm coming, Doc. Just hang on. Just hold it until I get there please. Addison: I'll walk him. (Addison gets up) Derek: No it's my turn. Addison: No it's ok. I'll walk Doc. You just s...sleep. Good. (She puts on a dressing robe) Fresh outdoors. Spring morning. You just sleep. Derek: Ok. Addison: Unless you wanna talk. Derek (eyes closed and hugging his pillow): Oh god here it comes. Addison: Well I'm not saying that we have to talk. I'm just saying if you want to talk we could you know. I could start you know and, and you could talk about anything...at all you wanna talk about. Derek(groggy): Ah it's just too early for me to interpret girl flip-out into normal conversation. Addison: It's just that you usually ... you start yelling you know when you get mad. And Mark showed up yesterday and you haven't yelled yet. I'm trying to give you a chance. So just go. Yell. Derek: I don't wanna yell. Addison: You don't wanna yell? You? Derek: I just want to sleep. (Doc barks) Doc, he wants to pee. Preferably not inside this trailer. Addison: Ok. (Derek sighs. Addison puts on a dorky looking cap and stops at the doorway) Addison: You could yell if you want to. I can take it! I'm ready! Derek: Addison. (He pulls a pillow over his head) Addison: Alright. I'm going. (Doc barks) I'm going. Come on. (Meredith's house) (Meredith is grabs her keys and listens at the doorway to see if George is out there) GVO: What I'm saying is ... we reap what we sow. (George is opening his bedroom door very carefully) GVO: What comes around goes around. (He creeps out and we see that Meredith is also walking down the hallway also creeping quietly. She stops uncomfortable when see sees George and he stops too when sees her. All of sudden Izzie's bedroom door opens with a naked Alex pulling on his underwear and heading to the bathroom. Izzie steps out in her PJs) Izzie (to Meredith): Morning. (She turns and sees George) Morning. (The other two are just silent) What? So I slept with him again. So I'm a big whore. Big horny whore who can't get enough. Can we get over the shocked silence already? (She looks confused as she realizes George looks a little uncomfortable) GVO: It's karma and any way you slice it ... (Meredith hurries back to her bedroom and Izzie turns to George) Izzie: What's going on? (George shrugs) GVO: ... karma sucks. (SGH) (Locker room) (Meredith is getting ready in front of the mirror tying up her hair. George walks up to brush his teeth but goes back when he realizes Meredith is there. Cristina is standing with Izzie and Alex who are sitting on a bench at the lockers a few feet away watching the whole situation unravel) Alex: 50 bucks says O'Malley caught her doing Mark Sloan. (Izzie hits him. Meredith heads to her locker) Izzie: There's something going on. I mean look at them. Alex: Alright he walked in on her doing McDreamy. (Cristina looks bemused and Izzie gives him a look) Alex: Did I just call that dude McDreamy? Cristina: Oh you know you did. Alex: Awesome. (to Izzie) You are ruining my life. Izzie: Ha. (He moves up to her really close and moves to kiss her but Izzie gets up) Cristina: Get a room. (Izzie walks up to them and Cristina follows her) Izzie: Guys. George: Excuse me. Izzie: Oh sorry. (she ducks out of George's way) What's ah...what's a going on? (George and Meredith both give Izzie weird looks) Meredith: Nothing. Cristina: Oh you know we're going to find out anyway. Izzie: You tell us and maybe we can help. George: There's nothing to tell. Cristina: Oh that means there's something to tell. George: Come on. Meredith: There's nothing to tell. (Patient room where a middle-aged man named Keith Paulus lies in bed. His fianc�e Amy is sitting on chair next to the bed as Nurse Olivia takes Keith's temperature) Amy: Well how bought Gardenias? Like masses and mountains of Gardenias? Keith: Are we worried about bees? Amy: Okay that's why I love him. (Olivia smiles) Amy: No Gardenias. (Izzie, Alex, George, Meredith and Cristina are in the room. Burke walks in) Burke: Who would like to present? Cristina: Ah Keith Paulus admitted last night with chest pains. (Keith nods smiling at Dr. Burke) Status post acute MI. Ah no family or personal history of heart disease. No cardiac risk factors. Amy: He's healthy as a horse. Keith: A horse who's in bed after just having a heart attck. (Meredith moves around uncomfortable as does George. Izzie notices) Amy: See now any minute I think you're going to tell us this was a false alarm and it just seemed that he had a heart attck. (Burke checks Keith with his stethoscope) Keith: She talks when she gets nervous. (Keith winks at Amy) Burke: Hmm I understand. Mr. Paulus unfortunately the scans show what looks like a mass around your heart. A very, very large mass. (Amy gets up and moves to stand next to Keith nervous) Keith: Mass ... okay. Is that code for tumor? Amy: Okay that's absurd. He doesn't have a tumor. He's incredibly healthy. Burke: We won't know until there's further exploration which is why I'd like to do an angiogram today. Keith: Okay, good. (Amy looks a little shocked) (Meredith is walking down the hallway. Izzie and Alex follow laughing and grinning at each other. Cristina follows those two with George lagging behind. George purposely drops his pen in front of Cristina to stop her walking. He picks it up) George: Did Meredith say any...anything to anyone about anything? Cristina: No. Are you gonna dish? George: No. (Cristina looks at him) No. (She starts to walk again) Cristina: Leave me alone I'm working. George (walks up to her): Well good because I don't want to talk about it. Ever. Cristina (looks like she doesn't care): Fine. Then don't. George: I'm just saying. Cristina: Uh. (The doors at the opposite end of the hallway open and Addison walks through as if she's got a major wedgie. They all stop and stare at her as she walks by) Cristina (to the others): Are you? That's weird. (Patient's room with Derek. There's a cute young black boy named Shawn Begleiter lying in the bed holding a bucket. His parents Rick and Michael are standing with him at his bedside. In relation to Rick just imagine Jack from 'Will and Grace') Rick: Do you need to throw up again? Shawn: No. Rick: Cause there's no shame in needing to throw up. Shawn: Dad I don't need to throw up. Alex: Shawn Begleiter. 11 years old. In for intractable vomiting after a minor head injury. Rick: Oh I wouldn't exactly say minor. Michael: He was ht in the head with a baseball. Rick: Yeah playing first and this little dolt hairy dopple hammer hits the line-diver out of nowhere and Shawn wasn't looking and (he makes a gesture and sighs. Derek is checking Shawn. He mutters to Michael) You know this is my fault. I knew I shouldn't have let him play little league. It's clearly a dangerous sport! Michael: Rick, let's let the doctors talk. Rick: They wanna know what happened. Michael, I'm telling them what happened. Michael: Shawn's gonna be ok. (to Derek) Right? Derek: Yeah we have to keep a close eye on him. (Rick nods) Okay recommendations? Meredith: Traumatic brain injury could indicate anything from a concussion to intracranial hemorrhaging. (Rick brings his hand to his chest upset) I'd start with a H & P, do a thorough neuro-exam and get a CT. Derek: Good. Rick: Are you sure you don't need to throw up? Shawn (sighs): Dad. (Rick nods) (Addison is standing at the doorway of Tucker's patient room where he is dressed and packing up his things ready to go home. Addison still looks like she has a major wedgie or something) Addison: Tucker. (Tucker turns around) Tucker: Dr. Shepherd. Addison: How um ... how are you feeling? (She walks into the room) Tucker (smiles): I'm feeling great. I get to go home. (Addison forces a smile back) Addison: That's fantastic. Is Miranda gonna meet you there? (Bailey opens up the bathroom door and walks out of the bathroom holding her little baby Will) Bailey: No. I'm driving him there. Addison (looks relived): Oh thank god. Bailey: You okay? Addison: I need a consult. (Tucker gives Bailey a look) Bailey (defensive to Tucker): I'm not working. Addison (clears her throat): Hmm. Miranda, I need a consult. (Exam room where Addison is sitting on a table in stirrups and Bailey is looking under Addison's skirt) Bailey: Oh no. Addison: Please don't say that. Bailey: Addison, I'm so, so, sorry. You have poison oak, ( Addison moans and lies back on the exam seat/bed) where nobody wants to have poison oak. GVO: Like I was saying ... Addison: Oh god. GVO: ... payback's a bitch. (Tucker's room where Derek is checking on Tucker who is holding William) Derek: It's official my friend. You get to go home. Tucker (smiles): I can't thank you enough. I thank you. My wife thanks you. (Will gurgles) Oh and my son thanks you. Derek: Hey where is your wife? You can't drive for another six weeks. (Richard walks in) Richard: Dr. Shepherd is a stickler when it comes to his patients' recovery. I should know. (They shake hands) Tucker: Hey Richard. Richard: Wanted to stop in before Bailey took you home. Tucker: Uh well she's here somewhere. (he gestures to Derek) Ah your wife came in earlier. Said she needed a consult. (Derek looks confused) Richard: Consult? Bailey is on maternity leave. Tucker: Seemed like some kind of personal consult. It's okay. I don't mind waiting. (Addison is in the exam room. Bailey pulls back the curtain and sits down in front of Addison who looks very irritated at the itchiness of her legs) Bailey: Okay I'm back. Addison: You didn't make up a chart did you? Please tell me you did not make up a chart. Bailey: I did not make up a chart which means (Bailey puts on some gloves) we are officially stealing this calamine lotion and these gloves. You take it up with the Chief. Addison (horrified): The Chief? No, no, no, no. I can not take this up with the Chief. Bailey: I'm just kidding. Addison: Okay did I make jokes with you when you were in the stirrups? Bailey: No you did not and I'm apologizing. Addison (tries to rub her legs together): Uh! (Bailey lifts up Addison's skirt) Bailey: Oh my! Addison: What? Bailey: These blisters are growing awful fast. Yeah I gotta give you a sht of steroids. Addison (sits up aghast): Steroids? Bailey: I've never seen a case of poison oak this bad. ( Addison sighs and lies back down and Bailey continues looking) Ew, girl what did you do? Addison: Oh for the love of God Miranda, the calamine! Bailey: Oh right sorry. (She moves to get the calamine lotion) (Alex is pushing Shawn in a wheelchair down the hall. Meredith is walking with them holding Shawn's chart) Alex: What happened with you and O'Malley? Meredith: Nothing. Alex: Well whatever it is I've done worse. Meredith: How do you know I did something? How do you know George didn't do something? Alex: Because Bambi looks pissed and you look guilty. (The walk into the CT room) Alex: Here we are. Come on buddy let me help you up here. (He lifts Shawn on the table of the CT machine) There you go. Meredith: Fine. I did something. A terrible, terrible something. Shawn: One time I put a raw egg in my sock drawer for a month and then I smashed it in my teacher's grade book. Meredith: Ew. Shawn: My Dads were really mad. (Alex looks amused) Meredith: Well what I did was worse than that. Shawn: Cool. Alex: Cool. (OR where Burke is doing an angiogram on Keith. Cristina and George are assisting. George sh*t a glance at Cristina) Cristina: Stop pouting. George: I'm not pouting. Cristina: Oh please I don't have to even look at you. I can feel you pouting. Whatever Meredith did it wasn't on purpose so get over it already. (Burke clears his throat loudly) I'm not being inappropriate. He's acting like she skinned his puppy. Burke (whispers back to her): Cristina, it's not nice. Cristina: Well I'm not a nice person. George: If you knew what she did you would understand. Cristina: No I don't understand. I don't wanna know. What I want is to analyze this angiogram, put this sucker into surgery and excise his cardio-thoracic mass. George (looking at the screen): Doesn't look like a mass to me. Burke: That's because it's not. (Keith's patient room where he is now back in sitting upright on the bed. Amy is sitting next to him. Burke is standing there with his chart. Cristina and George are there as well) Burke: What we thought was a mass is actually a coronary artery aneurysm with a fistula into one of your heart chambers. Keith: Is it ah easy to fix? Amy: Before you answer that question I just want to let you know that we are getting married. We're, we're in love and we're getting married and we're not so young so we've been waiting a long time for this. I have my dress and everyone's coming and it's supposed to be the happiest day of our lives and that the only reason I'm telling you this is because you have this look on your face. This dark ominous look and... Keith (interrupts): Oh honey. Amy (continues on force smiling) ... we're silver lining kind of people so I just thought I might help if you knew that. Burke: Dr. Yang, would you close the door? (Cristina shuts the door and Burke clears his throat and Amy instantly looks scared) We can ah- we can operate on the aneurysm. Try to repair it. But this type of lesion is extremely delicate. Chances of it rupturing in surgery are high. Keith: What keeps it from rupturing if I'm just walking down the street? Burke: Nothing. The risks are high either way. Amy: This isn't happening. This can't be happening. Keith: It's okay Amy. Amy: No it's not. Burke: I know it's a lot to process but if we're going to operate, we need to do to it as soon as possible. Amy (shocked and teary-eyed): We're getting married. Keith (strokes her hair and whispers): Honey. Amy: We're getting...we're getting married. Keith (soothingly): Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. (Burke, Cristina and George are outside Keith's room) George: They seem like a really nice couple. They don't seem like they deserve this. Burke: Um they never do. George: Really? I guess I just think I believe in karma. You know I mean good people deserve good things. At least that's how I thought the universe worked. Cristina: How can you think that and practice medicine? (George gives looks up at her shocked and Burke gives her a disapproving look) George (angry): Why...I'm not saying that everybody who gets sick or everybody who dies is bad. I'm just saying that ah I think that there's a balance. Or there should be balance! I should...there should be some sort of balance. That's (he shrugs and mutters to himself) Burke: Good god O'Malley, what the hell did Grey do to you? (George looks up at Burke and then gives Cristina a look and Cristina just looks amazed) (Shawn's room where he's back in his bed. Derek is standing in front of Shawn's bed and Shawn's parents are both standing at the bedside) Michael: What exactly do you mean when you say blood in the ventricle? (Derek nods but doesn't get to answer) Rick: Oh my god his brain is bleeding? Derek: Well there's no need to panic. It's a small amount of blood and these injuries often resolve themselves. Rick: Yeah but what if it doesn't? Will he lose IQ points? Because he's very smart (Derek shakes his head no and Michael shakes his head apologetically) and that's very important to him and he likes to be smart. (to Michael) Do you think we should sue that little brute that ht the ball? (Michael raises his eyebrows) Or the coach? We should sue the coach. Michael: Shawn loves the coach. Rick: Yeah Shawn's brain is bleeding! Michael: Rick. Shawn: Dad, I'm fine. Geeze. Derek: Yeah. He's awake, alert, minimal pain. These are all good signs. I just want to monitor him over the next forty-eight hours. Rick (nods): Okay. Good. Hear that Shawn? Good signs. (Shawn nods) That means honey you shouldn't be scared. Shawn (nods): I'm not. Rick: I am. Michael & Shawn (at the same time): We know. (Izzie is wearing a yellow gown coming out of the Pit to outside into the waiting area for the ambulances. Alex is sitting on a bench holding a cupcake) Izzie: Oh they paged you too? Must be something big. (Alex stands up) Alex: Nobody paged me. Izzie (refers to the back of her gown): Can you tie this? Alex: Nobody paged you either. Izzie: Yes they did. I just got a page. (Alex pushes her against the wall and Izzie starts smiling) Did you page me? Alex. (He holds up the cupcake to her) Oh. Oooh. (She starts licking the cream of the cake and Alex starts kissing her cheek) Alex: You free tonight? Izzie: I might be. Hmm ... Hey are you still working with Meredith? (Alex shakes his head and kisses her. An ambulance can be heard coming in) Alex: I'm trying to kiss you. Izzie: Yeah but she won't say anything about what happened between her and George (Alex shakes his head) because I'm starting to get really worried. (Alex just kisses her) (You can hear Ray the paramedic wheeling in a patient) Ray: 35 year old male. Shortness of breath. Had a syncopal episode. (Izzie looks to the side and sees Denny Duquette the heart transplant patient from episode 2x13 being wheeled in) Ray (trails off as he wheels Denny): Pulse is rapid and irregular. Izzie (pulls away as she realizes): Oh my god. It's Denny. (She starts running down the hall after the paramedics) Alex: What? Izzie (calls back): It's Denny! (She leaves Alex looking gloomy holding the cupcake in his hand) (Trauma room where Denny is being placed onto a gurney in the middle of the room surrounded by E.R. doctors. The ER resident comes in) Izzie: What did you get in the field? Doctor: Hey this is my patient until I sign him over to you. (Alex jogs in) Izzie: I know this guy. He's on top of the donor list for a new heart. That makes him surgical. I've already paged Dr. Burke and he's on his way. So you better start signing now. (to the paramedic) What did he get in the field? Ray: We gave him 40 of furosemide. Rhythm didn't change after 6 of adenosine. (Ray and the other paramedic leave. Izzie looks upset at this and Burke walks in) Burke: What do we got? Izzie: It's Denny. Alex: Transplant dude. Burke: Denny? Alex: Transplant candidate. Acute dysrhythmia and CHF. Vitals all over the place. Burke (checks Denny): His heart rhythm is a mess. Alex: He's in heart failure. Izzie (panicked): Bizoprolo can reduce the chance of mortality. Can we try that? What about ACE inhibitors? Digoxin! Somebody load him with dig! Burke: Stevens slow down. He's holding on. Barely but he's holding on. Izzie (still panicked): Isn't there something more that we can do? There has to be something more we can do. Burke: The best we can do is to get him up to CICU and wait and see if his heart will sab. Alex: Izzie, we should...we should go. Izzie (pushes off Alex and goes up to Denny): No you go um I'm gonna stay. (Alex walks out) (Bailey is rummaging through some medical supplies in a hallway. Richard comes up to her) Bailey (to herself): No, yes, yes. Richard: I see you. (Bailey jumps a little) Bailey: No you don't. Richard: Your husband was discharged over an hour ago. Bailey: I'm not here. Richard: Go home. You're not working today. You're on maternity leave. Bailey: Exactly. (She takes the medical supplies she grabbed and heads off) (Cristina is checking Keith's heartbeat with a stethoscope in Keith's room. Amy is standing next to him) Cristina: Have you made your decision? Keith: Wh- Oh ah about the surgery um (he glances at Amy) no we're still ah- we're still talking about it. Uh we were thinking maybe we should wait until after the wedding. Um. Amy: So, so how is he? Cristina: Ah he's pretty much the same. Keith: Oh that's good, right? Cristina: Ahh no. Not really. It... (she sighs) see with your condition you're gonna be okay until your not and if you opt against the surgery and if you leave now it's just a matter of time. And you might make it to your wedding but you might not and you won't know. You're just gonna be okay until you die. Keith: Wh...what? (he chuckles) You're trying to comfort me? Cristina: No. I'm trying to convince you to let Dr. Burke operate. Amy: So that he can die today? Cristina: He might die today anyway but Dr. Burke is the very best and he's your very best chance. (Denny's room in the ICU. Burke is at the nurses' station outside just hanging up the phone. Izzie comes up to the desk) Burke: Stevens. Is everything all right? Izzie: Ah it's just ... it's just not fair you know. It's really not fair. (she sighs) We treat jerks all the time. Patch 'em up, send 'em off whether they deserve it or not. No big deal but ... Denny. He's a good guy Dr. Burke. He's a really good guy with a bad heart and all we can do for him is wait. Burke: Believe me I know. I've been treating Denny a long time. Izzie: He doesn't deserve this. Burke: What he deserves is the best cardiac care. We're giving him that. (Izzie nods) You really like him don't you? Izzie (shrugs): He just ... he just doesn't deserve this. (Addison is in her exam room still in the stirrups. Bailey is sitting in front of her with an ice pack. Bailey puts on the ice-pack on Addison) Addison : Ah! Bailey: Sorry, how's that? Is that ice-pack helping? Addison: I don't know. I don't think so. Eh! Bailey: Mind if I ask how exactly this happened? Addison: I slept with Mark! Bailey: Oh! ... And he had poison oak on his... Addison: No! I slept with Mark a year ago and apparently this is what I get! Bailey: Yeah. But how did you... Addison (upset): I live in a trailer. I have Meredith Grey's dog. And I went outside to throw a stick and I had to pee. So I squatted! Because I didn't want to go inside and wake up my husband because the way he's been looking at me since yesterday. I just wanted a few minutes of peace. (she starts crying and points to her legs) And this is what I get. Bailey: No. No, no. Don't cry. Addison (crying): This is what I get! Bailey: Please don't cry! Please don't cry! (Bailey stands up) Stop! You're gonna make me- (Addison continues crying and Bailey removes her hands from her breasts. Her shirt is all wet) lactate. Addison (crying): I'm sorry. Bailey: Get, get me some gauze. Get me some gauze. Addison (crying and hands over some gauze): I'm sorry. (There's a knock at the door) Bailey: Stop. Shh. (There's a knock again. Bailey opens the door slightly and reveals Richard standing there) Bailey: Can I help you Chief? Richard: Dr. Bailey. I don't know what you're doing in there but whatever it is- (Bailey opens the door wider and Richard notices the two large round wet stains on Bailey's top) Oh. Oh. Oh no. Um (he clears his throat) Dr. Bailey. Ah, I'm ... sorry. Uh carry on. (He clears his throat again and walks away. Bailey shakes her bemused and closes the door) (Derek is entering Shawn's room. Debbie the nurse is standing over Shawn's bedside and Meredith is standing on the other side. Rick and Michael are standing a bit to the side. Shawn appears conscious and Debbie and Meredith are prepping him for surgery. Another nurse is there as is Alex) Derek: Okay fill me in. Meredith: I was doing his routine neuro check... Derek: Uh huh. Meredith (continues) I noticed he was altered. Most likely a clot. Acute hydrocephalus. (Derek checks Shawn's eyes) Derek: Oh damn. We need to relieve the pressure right now. Alex: Cranial access kit is ready. Rick: Cranial access? Access to Shawn's brain? Derek: Debbie, get them out of here. Debbie: Gentlemen. (She starts leading Rick and Michael out but Rick pushes past her) Michael: Rick. Rick: We're not going anywhere. Derek: Look I'm about to drill a hole into your son's skull. You don't want to watch this. Rick: He's our son. We're not leaving. (Michael tries to get him to leave) We are not leaving his side! Derek: 15 blade please. I want a catheter ready to drain as soon as I penetrate the dura. (Michael takes Rick's hand in his and Rick takes on Shawn's hands) Derek (to the parents): Do not panic. (Rick nods) Derek: I want the drill. (Alex hands him the drill and Derek starts drilling into Shawn's brain) Derek: Almost in. Okay there. (A little bit of blood squirts out and Rick clenches his eyes shut) Get that. (he hands the drill back) Okay catheter to go in. (he places the catheter in) Meredith (checks Shawn's eyes): Pupils reactive. Derek: Pressure's sab. Rick: Is he okay? Meredith (to Alex and Meredith): I want neuro checks every hour and increase the supervision. (to Rick and Michael) We...we're in the clear for now. Rick: We're in the clear? Derek: You guys did well. (Shawn is conscious now) Shawn: Ah I have a headache. Alex: Welcome back little man. (his pager goes off) 911. (He leaves as Derek is sewing up the hole he made. Rick looks a little pale. Shawn notices) Shawn: Dad you look white, are you okay? (Rick half nods and then shakes his head and then pulls to the side and vomits onto the floor) Debbie: Oh great. (Denny's room where his monitors are beeping rapidly. Izzie is already standing in there with a nurse as Alex comes in) Alex: You got in here quick. Izzie: We got to get his heart rate under control. (to the nurse) Push 300 of amniodarone now. (Burke enters) Burke: Status? Izzie: Atrial fibrillation. His heart is beating too fast. If we can't get it to slow down... Alex (injects the drug and shrugs): It'll give out. Burke: Alright let's try synchronized cardio-version. (to the nurse) Push 5 of morphine. (The nurse hands Alex the morphine) Denny (groggy): Izzie? Izzie: You're awake. Denny: Hey, I was hoping I might get to see you. Izzie: You're working us pretty hard around here. Denny: The things I have to do to get a girl's attention. (Alex seems annoyed) Burke: Denny, we're about to send a series of electric currents through your body. Hopefully the shocks will be enough to slow your heart rate back to normal. (Another nurse brings in the crash cart) Izzie: I'll be here the whole time. (Alex seems really annoyed now) Denny: Is this gonna hurt? Burke: It won't be fun. Denny (to Izzie): Iz, maybe you ought to hold my hand then huh? (Izzie smiles and takes Denny's hand into her own) Alex: Do you mind if I handle the paddles? Burke: Be my guest. (Alex takes the paddles and moves to shock Denny with them) Izzie: Ready? Denny: Yeah. ht me. Alex: Clear. (Izzie drops Denny's hand as Alex shocks Denny) Denny: AUGH! God! Burke: No change. Try it one hundred. (Alex looks like he's getting some kind of sick pleasure from this) Alex: Clear! (He shocks Denny again) Denny: AUGH! Oh, oh, oh! Holy smokes. (his heart monitor returns to normal) Oh. Burke: Denny, you are a lucky man. (Izzie looks down relieved) Denny (breathing hard): Oh. Oh, oh Doc. I outta kick your ass for making me yell like a baby in front of the girl I'm trying to impress man. (Izzie can't stop a smile from forming) Oh geeze. (Izzie is chuckling and Alex looks on jealous) (Bailey is walking down the hallway trying to clean up her shirt still. Derek notices her a few feet away) Derek: Dr. Bailey. (Bailey starts walking faster and Derek runs up quickly to catch her) Derek: Dr. Bailey! Did you hear me? (He stops her) Derek: Ah, ah I'm a little distracted right now. (Derek notices the 'spots') Derek: Oh yes. I've been paging you. Bailey: I'm not on call. I'm on maternity leave. Derek: I've been paging my wife as well but she hasn't been answering either. You know where she is. Bailey: Just because I know doesn't mean you should. (Derek looks confused) There's some things you don't get to know. Not from me and really you don't wanna know. Derek: Yeah but you have to tell me where she is. (Bailey looks up with a look saying 'Oh really?') I saved your husband's life. Bailey: She saved my baby. Derek: So baby trumps husband? Bailey (nods): Mmm. (She walks away) Derek (calls out in disbelief): Baby trumps husband? (Meredith is walking down a hallway writing in a chart. George is walking the same hall from the opposite direction. They stop when they both see each other. George kinda moves to talk to Meredith but Meredith puts her chart away and walks back the way she came quickly. George looks on hurt) (Waiting room lounge where George enters to make himself coffee. He notices that the room is not empty but has Amy in it sitting at a table with her wedding planner) George: Hey Amy. Amy: The website said you should save your receipts. George: I'm sorry? Amy: Oh you know just in case something happens. You know, have them. (She opens up the wedding planner) I have all of ours here right here. You know I've got my dress and the band and the ballroom deposit and the honeymoon. And my mom said I shouldn't you know keep them. It was bad luck. It was tempting fate. George: This isn't your fault. Amy: You, you have a life. You, you fall in love. You, you make plans. You have fantasies. (She closes the book and stands up) And none of them involve all of them ending in the blink of the eye. (George looks sad as he understands and Amy leaves) (Alex is whistling walking down a hallway where he notices Meredith sitting on some empty chairs in corner. He walks up to her) Alex: What are you doing? Meredith: Hiding. (He sits down across from her) Alex: Alright, so you slept with O'Malley. Get over it already. Meredith: He told you? Alex (shocked): Eh ... no. (Meredith stares at him and Alex still stares at her shocked until he starts to laugh) Alex: Oh I was just kidding. Uh. I mean it's not like I should be surprised. Meredith: Why not? Alex: Because when your life is sucking, you get drunk and sleep with inappropriate men. It's your thing. Whatever. I find it charming. Meredith: You sleep with inappropriate women when you're sober. Alex: One inappropriate woman and Izzie forgave me for that. O'Malley, he's not gonna get over this. Meredith: Izzie hasn't forgiven you. Alex: Yes she has. We're together. Meredith: No you're not. Izzie may be sleeping with you but she'll never see you the way she saw you before you slept with Olivia. Alex: Why are you trying to piss me off? Meredith: You're trying to suggest that it's forgivable for you to sleep with Olivia but not forgivable for me to sleep with George. (George is standing at the doorway near them) George: You told him? I... Meredith: George. George: Wow when I'm wrong about someone... Meredith (interrupts): No I... George (continues): I am really wrong! Meredith: No George! (George starts walking off and Meredith and Alex start running after him) It's not! It's not what you think! Alex: Dude chill! George (stops angry): You chill! You chill! I'm not...I'm not gonna chill. (he starts walking off again and they start following him again) Meredith: George! I... (Izzie comes into the hallway) Izzie: What's going on? Alex: The fetus is freaking out. Izzie: I can see that. (She tries to grab George's arm) Why are you freaking out? (George stops again and Cristina comes in from the other side of the hall) George: You think that someone is your friend you know. (Meredith looks ashamed and George is angry) You think at the very least she'd respect your privacy! Cristina: What's going on? (George starts walking off again and Meredith follows) Alex: Baby boy is freaking out. Izzie: She can see that! Cristina (at the same time): I can see that! Izzie: Why is he freaking out? (The others follow as well and see George and Meredith a few feet away. George is standing in front of the door leading into a stairwell) Meredith: George, can we at least talk? George: I don't wanna talk! Not to you! I wanted to keep my mouth shut! And if you hadn't been running away from me every time you see me you would know that. (George enters the stairwell and starts hurrying down the stairs. Meredith follows) Meredith: Okay, you're right but can we just talk now? (The others follow) George (yells): You wanna talk now because you told everyone that we had sex! Meredith (eyes widen): Shh. Izzie: You had sex?! Cristina: You had sex with George?! George: You didn't tell them? Meredith: No. George: Damn it! (He moves to walk down the next flight of stairs but ends up falling down them instead) (All the girls yelled concerned) George: Ah! (Alex just laughs. Izzie whacks his arm) (George is sitting in a trauma room with what looks like a sore arm. Alex, Izzie, Meredith and Cristina are watching him through the window. Meredith walks away) George: Go away. (They walk away to where Meredith is standing a few feet away) Meredith: He's gonna be okay right? Alex: He dislocated his shoulder. He's gonna be fine. (Alex walks off) Meredith: That's not exactly what I meant. Izzie: Meredith, if you can't make this right, if you can't fix this with George, just so you know if it comes to choosing sides, I'm on his. (Izzie walks off and Meredith turns to look at Cristina) Cristina: He's the weaker kid. I mean I don't even bat up on weaker kids. It's cheap. Meredith (teary-eyed): I did a terrible thing. I didn't... (she shakes her head) I did a terrible thing. Cristina: He's been in love with you since Day One. There's no way you didn't know that. (Meredith looks down) We all do terrible things. Meredith: Thank you. Cristina: You're welcome. (She leaves) (George is sitting the trauma room looking gloomy. An orthopedic surgeon named Calliope "Callie" Torres walks in with George's chart) Callie: George O'Malley? George: Uh hi. Callie: Dr. George O'Malley. You're the heart in the elevator guy! George: Yeah that's me. Callie (smiles): That was amazing. George: Uh thanks. I uh dislocated my shoulder. (Callie checks his shoulder) Callie: Yeah. George: Oh! Callie: I can see that. George: It's really not so bad. (Callie moves to write in his chart) Callie: Yes it is. Pick your poison. George: Uh ... no pain Kllers, thanks. Callie: Bold choice. George: No I just ah officially I'm on duty. Callie (chuckles): And planning to stay? George: Mmm Hmm. Callie: Bolder choice. George: All I need is help ah popping it back in. Callie: You got into a fight? George: I fell, fell down some stairs. (Callie moves to the side where George has dislocated his arm) Callie: Where? At your girlfriend's? George: What? No I'm single. Callie: Single, huh. (She grabs George's arm suddenly and snaps it back into place) George: Augh! Ah! Callie: It hurts less if you don't see it coming. (She helps George place his arm into a sling. It's obvious she seems to 'like' him) George: All set? Callie: All set. George: Okay. (he gets up) Thanks. Callie: You're welcome. George: Bye. Callie: Bye. (George leaves) (Meredith and Derek are entering an empty elevator. Meredith looks upset and Derek looks at her concerned) Meredith: Don't. Derek: Don't? Meredith: Don't be nice to me. ... I did a terrible thing. Derek: We all do terrible things. Meredith: No, I...I...I did a thing that I...I can't even believe I did and ... I was sad (she shakes her head) and uh. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna lose all my friends. Derek: You won't lose me. (He half-smiles at her) Meredith: You're not my friend. Derek: Yes I am. (She sht him a look) Well then I could be. (he smiles) I'm a very good friend. Meredith: No we can't be friends. Derek: We could be friends. You'd be lucky to have me. Meredith (upset): How? How can we be friends? Derek: We could ah ... hangout. Mmm hmm. I walk Doc every other morning. Tiger Mountain Trail. We could meet. Have coffee. Watch Doc play and ... discuss the complex nature of our existence. Meredith: Right. Derek: We could. Might be fun. I could be your friend Meredith. (The doors ding open) Meredith: No, we can't be friends. (She walks out. The doors close on Derek who is looking down and gloomy) (Denny's patient room in ICU. Izzie is in there with him. He smiles at her and she smiles back) Izzie: Just adding nitro. Your blood pressure is sab now. Your CHF has improved and the atrial fibrillation resolved. Denny (smiles): I like the way you say fibrillation. Izzie (sexy voice): Fibrillation. (she laughs) Denny (smiling): Tease. Izzie: How are you feeling? Denny: You ah ... you believe in karma? Izzie: Um ... actually I do. Yeah. Denny (grins): I think you might be mine. Izzie (chuckles and smiles): Well you must have been very, very good to deserve me. Denny (grins): Must have. (Izzie laughs. Alex is looking on jealously through he window of the patient room) (Derek is walking down the hall and about to knock on the door to Addison's room. Richard comes up to him) Richard: I wouldn't do that if I were you. Derek: Dr. Bailey said she... Richard (interrupts): If she wants some privacy then we will give her, her privacy, understood? Derek: Well Dr. Bailey paged me. Richard: She did? Derek: Yeah. (Bailey comes up to them also carrying her baby boy) Bailey: I did and I'm still not here. I'm still on maternity leave and (to Richard) I still need some privacy Chief. (She opens the door to the room and to Derek) Come here. (Both Derek and Richard try to walk in but only Derek gets in before Bailey closes the door in Richard's face. Derek is in the room trying to peer over the curtain shielding Addison) Bailey: No moving, no peeking, no pulling the curtain. Just stand there. Let her talk to you, understand? Derek: Is this really necessary? Bailey: I said do you understand? Derek: I'm not mentlly challenged. Bailey: I'm not so sure about that. (speaks loudly so Addison can hear) Let her talk. (Bailey leaves the room) Derek: Addison, this is ridiculous. Addison: Stay where you are! Promise! Derek: Okay, I promise. Addison: I'm gonna show you something and when I do you do not get to laugh and you do not get to gloat. Derek: Why would I gloat? Addison: I have poison oak. (Derek pulls back the curtain to reveal Addison sitting upright in the stirrups looking glum) Derek: What? (Addison slowly pulls up the sheet covering her legs. Derek looks confused and then steps forward and peers down at Addison lower body. He stands up amused) Derek: Hmm. You do indeed have poison oak. (Addison has a very grumpy look on her face and Derek is struggling not to smile) Addison (yells): So are we even yet? I mean is this bad enough? Have we repaid my debt to society, Derek? (Derek cracks up laughing and Addison throws a pillow at him also trying not to smile. He continues laughing and throws the pillow back at her. Addison chuckles) (Bailey is outside listening in through the door) Derek (amused): Alright, let's take a look. Addison: Get out! (Bailey smiles and starts walking down the hallway with her baby) Bailey: Oh. Ah. Come on Tuck. Let's take your daddy home. Oh. Big boy. Big boy. (George has his arm in a sling and Cristina walking down the hallway) George: She really didn't tell you about it? Cristina: No. God is that a bad thing? George: Well she tells you everything. So it didn't even matter enough to her to talk about it. (Cristina stops George walking) Cristina: Okay George, the pity thing? Not good. If you want crappy things to stop happening to you, then stop accepting crap and demand something more. (Cristina walks off to the nearby nurses' station and George is about to walk into Keith's room when Amy comes out with her wedding planner and her bag) George: Hey Amy. Amy: Oh could you tell ah Dr. Burke that um Keith is going to have the surgery. (Cristina walks up to them) Cristina: Oh that's great. George: Where are you going? Amy: Um I'm...I'm not strong enough for this. George: Oh Amy I know it's hard but your fianc�e say is going into surgery. You're gonna want to be here when he wakes up. Amy (sad): No I won't. Um he's not my fianc�e anymore. (She moves to walk off) George: You're leaving him? Amy: I'm not strong enough for this. Cristina: So the in sickness and in health part of your vows, you're just planning to leave those out? Amy: Please try to understand. I don't like that I'm not strong enough. I just know that I'm not. (Nurse Olivia suddenly opens the door to Keith's room and pops out) Olivia: George, he's crashing. George: What? Cristina: His aneurysm may have blown. Page Dr. Burke! (They rush into Keith's room where you can hear the monitors beeping rapidly. Amy looks sick and walks away) (Burke is about to operate on Keith in the O.R with an O.R team. Cristina is assisting) Burke: Okay everyone. It's actually a coronary artery aneurysm. (George is sitting in a fairly empty gallery by himself watching. Olivia comes in dressed to go home) Olivia: He's gonna live? George: Burke's a miracle worker. Do you know this guy's fianc�e left? Olivia: Oh. Sounds like he dodged a bllet. George: I don't think he's gonna see it that way. Olivia: If she can't love him back the way he loves her ... then she doesn't deserve him. (George looks down) George: You heard about me and Meredith? Olivia: Well everyone heard. George, you were yelling about it in the hallway. (George sighs and brings his hand to his forehead) Must've sucked. I'm sorry. George: I'm sorry. (Olivia looks confused) Um...If I made you feel anything like I'm feeling right now. ... I'm sorry. Olivia: That's nice to hear. (Olivia leaves) (Meredith's house, George's room) (George is emptying out his sock drawer with his one agile arm. He dumps it onto the bed. The scene switches him to shutting his suitcase and locking it. He opens the door to Meredith's bedroom and he pauses at the doorway. He flashes back to the previous night) (George and Meredith are in her bed together. He moves from under the sheets to rest on top of her. He appears breathless. They both appear to be naked. George seems to be happy) George: How's that? Meredith: Good. Really good. George: Yeah? (He leans to kiss her neck) Meredith: Yeah. George: Cause I could ah...I could do it again. I like doing it. Meredith: No it's... George: I could do it until you... Meredith (forces a smile): No it's okay. I'm fine. George: Yeah? (he leans into kiss her) Meredith: Ow. George: Oh sorry. Meredith: You're in my hair. Okay. George: Sorry. Meredith: It's okay. Yeah. There George: Right there? (Time seems to have moved forward and they actual seem to be in the throes) George: Meredith. Meredith. (George collapses on her) Meredith (tears in her voice): Oh George. (He props himself up) George: Meredith? (Meredith starts crying really badly) What's wrong? Meredith: Oh, oh, oh nothing! (she shakes her head crying) Nothing is wrong. Why would you think anything is wrong? George: You're crying. Meredith (crying): Oh. It'll stop. Just ignore me. George (smiles): No. I can't. I can't ignore you. Meredith (crying): Yeah. It's fine. It's fine. Just...It's okay. Just...You're almost done, right? George (a little shocked): No. Meredith (cries out): George. George: Meredith. Meredith. (Meredith just continues on crying even more than before) Meredith: George, please. George: Sleep...Sleeping with me is really this awful for you? Meredith (crying): No George! It's not. (George moves off Meredith quickly and grabs a blanket and wraps it around himself) It's not you! (George leaves and slams the door behind him. Meredith continues on crying) George! (George is standing at the doorway now. He enters the room and grabs his shirt from the previous night off the floor. He stands up and finds Meredith standing at the doorway) Meredith: There's a suitcase in the hall. George: I was just getting my shirt. Meredith: There's a suitcase... George (interrupts): Yeah ah I don't live here anymore. (He moves to walk past her) Excuse me. (Meredith steps into the room and sits on her bed. George stops at the doorway) George: Why? I just wanna know why you ... If you didn't want to... Meredith: I didn't know I didn't want to. ... You were there and you were saying all these perfect things and I was sad. And so I thought maybe, maybe I've just been overlooking what's been in front of me. And if I just give it a chance because you're George and you're so great ... ... I didn't know I didn't want to until I knew I didn't want to. George: Yeah. (he nods) Ok. (She turns to face him) Meredith: Can we please just go back to everything the way it was? George (looks at her in disbelief): I don't know how to go back. No. I'm done. We're done. (He walks off) GVO: One way or another, our karma, will leave us to face ourselves. (Locker room) (Izzie is standing in front of a mirror ready to go home but looking very nice. She is applying lipstick) GVO: We can look our karma in the eye or we can wait for it to sneak up on us from behind. (Alex appears behind Izzie smiling also dressed to go home) Alex: You ready? Izzie: What? Alex: Aren't we...I thought we had plans for tonight. (She turns around to face him) Izzie: Oh I forgot. I'm sorry. Raincheck? Alex (a little off put): Sure. (Izzie turns back to the mirror and Alex walks away) (Keith's room post-op. Keith is lying in bed. Burke comes in) Keith: Amy ... Burke: She's not ah ... here. ... Um but you are. That's what important. Keith: She left? She really left. ... Who does that? (tears in his voice) What kind of person does that? (Burke tucks Keith in) GVO: One way or another, our karma will always find us. (Izzie walks all dressed up nice but completely casual with a large paper bag to Denny's CICU room. Denny is reading a book) Izzie (smiles broadly): Hey. Denny (smiles back): Hey yourself. (Izzie is placing a small table cloth on the table in front of Denny) Denny: Wow. (Izzie puts two plastic wine glasses on the table and fills them with apple juice) I gotta say, not exactly how I envisioned our perfect first date. Izzie: Are you kidding? Do you know how hard I've had to work to get a cute boy in bed before? (Denny smiles at her) Denny: You think I'm cute. Izzie (chuckles): Okay. Shut up and drink your juice. GVO: And the truth is as surgeons we have more chances than most to set the balance in our favor. (Outside SGH) (George is sitting on a ledge of a window of the hospital. Callie dressed to go home walks up to him) Callie: George? George: Dr. Torres. Callie (smiles): Callie. (She notices the suitcase on the ground next to him) You're going on a trip? George: It's ah...sorta. (he nods at her) Callie: Well in that case ... (she grabs out a pen from her bag and writes her number of George's hand) Give me a call when you get back in town. (George looks at her amazed and she blows gently on his hand to dry the ink. She smiles and walks away. George looks to the side and sees Dr. Burke standing at the entrance ready to go home looking at him) GVO: No matter how hard we try, we can't escape our karma. It follows us home. (Burke and Cristina's apartment) (Burke and Cristina are in bed. Cristina is rubbing lotion on her legs.) Burke: He's your friend. He needed our help. Cristina: Are his problems surgical? Burke: Mmm no. Cristina: Then technically he doesn't need our help. (Burke puts his book down and puts his glasses on his bedside table) Burke: You're a good person. Cristina: I am not. (She puts her lotion away and switches her lamp off so they're shrouded in darkness. They lie down and pull the sheets over them. Burke cuddles up close to Cristina) Burke: Goodnight. Cristina: Ah ha, goodnight. (They both close their eyes) George (calls out from the living room): Goodnight. (Both of them open their eyes) (George is lying on the couch with a blanket and everything reading a journal. He switches off the lamp next to him) GVO: I guess we can't really complain about karma. It's not unfair. It's not unexpected. It just ... evens the score. (Forest Park, Tiger Mountain Trail) (It's daybreak and Doc is eagerly running and barking along the trail. Doc stops and then barks more. Derek is slowly walking smiling behind Doc with his leash. Doc is running up to Meredith where she pats him) GVO: And even when we're about to do something we know will tempt karma to bite us in the ass ... (Derek walks up to Meredith smiling and they both turn to watch Doc run about) GVO: ... well it goes without saying ... Meredith: So. Derek: So. Meredith: Just friends. (He nods) Derek: Just friends. GVO: ...we do it anyway.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x19 - What have I done to Deserve This?"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x20: Band Aid Covers the bllet Hole Original Airdate: 3/12/2006 Written by: Gabrielle G. Stanton & Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Julie Anne Robinson (Burke and Cristina's apartment) (George is standing in front of a mirror in the bathroom. There's a pair of scissors on the table in front of him) MVO: As doctors patients are always telling us how they would do our jobs. (George picks up the scissors and starts snipping off random bits of his hair) MVO: Just stitch me up, slap a band-aid on it and send me home. (Forest Park) (Doc is barking along a walking trail) MVO: It's easy to suggest a quick solution when you don't know much about the problem. When you don't understand the underlying cause ... (Derek picks up a stick of the ground and throws it far and Doc chases after it. Meredith is walking with Derek) MVO: ... or just how deep the wound really is. Derek: So your friends ... they still mad about this very bad horrible thing you did? Meredith (smiles): The very horrible bad thing that I won't tell you about? Yes they're still upset. Derek: Well whatever it is I don't want to know. Even if I beg. Don't tell me. Meredith: Ok, I won't. Derek: Good. Ok. Although we are friends. Meredith: True, we are friends. Derek: Technically you tell friends stuff. You come to me with a problem, I give you the answer. After maybe we celebrate the moments of our lives. (Derek takes a swig of his water bottle. Meredith takes the bottle and takes a sip herself) Meredith: I will keep that in my mind next time I do a horrible thing. What about you, don't you have any problems you want to tell me about? Derek: Truthfully, at this moment in time I don't have any problems. Not a single one. (Burke and Cristina's apartment) MVO: The first step towards a real cure is to know exactly what the disease is to begin with. (Cristina walks out of the bedroom in her pj's and grabs a mug to pour some instant coffee) MVO: But that's not what people want to hear. (The front door opens and Burke and George enter looking very sweaty and tired and out of breath) Burke: Good morning! (Burke heads into the bedroom and George heads to the fridge and grabs a water bottle) George: Ah how many miles was that Dr. Burke? Burke (calls out): Five! George: Five. Five miles in 50 minutes. Nice. (Burke re-enters and George throws him a water bottle) Burke: We can get it closer to 45. George: Pancakes? Burke: Ah, top cupboard. (George is a bit too short for the cupboard and has to jump a few times to grab the mix. Cristina stares at them strangely pouring coffee) Cristina: What's wrong with your hair? Burke: Leave the man alone. He's got issues. (He goes to the fridge and starts throwing George some ingredients) And if he wants to cut his hair to get over those issues that's his business. His thing. George: It's my thing. (to Burke) Coffee? (Cristina holds up the instant coffee she has but they don't notice) Burke: Oh cappuccino. George: Ooh excellent. Cappuccino. (George starts prepping the coffee maker to make a cappuccino while Cristina looks a little off-put by the whole situation) MVO: We're supposed to forget the past that landed us here, ignore the future complications that might arise and go for the quick fix. (Seattle Scenes) (SGH) (Bailey is actually dressed for work but still carrying her baby. George is walking beside her up some stairs with Cristina, Meredith and Izzie lagging behind) Izzie: What happened to George's hair? Is he having a nervous breakdown? Cristina: Burke says he's got issues. Uh you should see them together. Like doing things, like running ... and cooking and talking. They're like bonding. Izzie: And you're afraid that Burke will realize he makes a better girlfriend than you? (Cristina doesn't answer. Izzie nods) Cristina: You know Meredith just go and apologize to him. Meredith: I've tried! Izzie: Try again. Things can't stay like this. They suck like this. (They're now walking a hallway and Alex runs up to catch up with them) Alex: What's up with O'Malley's hair? He looks like a hobbit. Izzie: He's just trying a new look. Alex: You never called me back last night. You avoiding me? Izzie: Why would I be avoiding you? (Denny's patient room. Izzie, George, Meredith, Cristina, Alex and Burke are in there) Izzie: Denny Duquette. Age 36. Denny: 37 in 3 weeks. Izzie (smiles): 37 in 3 weeks. He's having difficulty breathing and chest pains. Burke: Breath sounds? Izzie: Still a little junky. He has a build up fluid in his system. Denny: Hey did you just call me a junkie? (Izzie tries not to smile shaking her head) That's not very nice. Burke: Denny, you're congestive heart failure is getting worse despite the meds. (Denny nods) Denny: Alright so how do we proceed? Burke: Doctors how do we proceed? (Izzie moves to answer but Alex beats her to it) Alex: Titrate up his nitrate drip and continue with diuretics plus- Izzie (interrupts): ACE-inhibitors, Beta-blockers and start dobutamine. Burke: I also want his ins and outs recorded and one of you monitoring him at all times. Izzie (immediately puts up her hand): I'll stay. Alex: Me too. (He pushes past the others to stand next to Izzie. Izzie and Denny look a little off-put) (Addison is walking down a hallway followed by Bailey, her baby, George, Meredith and Cristina. They enter a patient's room. Mrs. Gibson is a thirty year old or so pregnant woman lying in bed. Her husband is sitting by her bedside) Addison: Mr. and Mrs. Gibson, I'm Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. I'll be covering for Doctor Pollack. (Mr. Gibson looks at Addison taken-aback at her) Meredith: Mrs. Gibson had a pre-term premature rupture of her membranes at 28 weeks. Cristina: She's confined to supervised bed rest for 7 weeks and has a low grade fever. (Mr. Gibson looks at Addison kind of like he's enamored with her) Mrs. Gibson: Can't you just schedule a C? Believe me, I'm ready to have this baby. Mr. Gibson: Hey you and me both. (He chuckles and Mrs. Gibson sht him a look) Addison: I want to get your blood work back before we make any further decisions. Mrs. Gibson: I have to pee. Again. (She sits up more and Mr. Gibson stands up to her help her get out of bed) Mr. Gibson: Come on, here we go. (Mrs. Gibson goes to the bathroom) Mr. Gibson: I appreciate you taking over my wife's case uh, uh Dr. Pollack says you're the best. Addison: Oh it's my pleasure Mr. Gibson. Mr. Gibson: He didn't mention that ah- wow you bear a striking resemblance to a young Catherine Deneuve. (Addison looks a little surprised) Oh you've, you've never heard that before? (The others in the room look a little confused and amused as well.) Addison: Uh, eh no. Sorry I, I have to say it's a first. Bailey (quietly): Been told I look like Halle Berry. Mr. Gibson: Ah beautiful. Beautiful. Well Miss Deneuve. (Addison pagers goes off and she checks it) Of course you are too but by extension. Addison (a little uncomfortable): Right, we'll be back um in later to check on your wife. (She heads out) Mr. Gibson: Look forward to it! (The others follow her) (Group is walking down a hallway. Bailey's pager goes off and her baby is crying) Bailey: Uh ER needs a consult. Addison: Uh O'Malley, Grey why don't you go and take that? Meredith: What about Mrs. Gibson? Addison: I'll take care of Mrs. Gibson. (Meredith starts walking away) George: Uh they really need both us? Addison: I'll guess you'll find out. Go! (George walks off and they continue walking down the hallway. Richard notices them a few feet away) Addison: Are you taking him to the nursery? Bailey: Ah it's full and Tucker's out of town until tomorrow. (Richard walks up to them) Richard: You brought your baby to work? (Addison takes Will from Bailey and tries to calm him down) Bailey: Uh yes Chief. Richard: You're not going to take him into surgery with you? Bailey: Uh, uh I don't have anything scheduled for today. Richard: Yet. Bailey: Ok I can't solve a problem until there's a problem to solve. Are you saying there's a problem? Addison: Yeah, is there a problem Richard? Richard: No. (Richard walks off) (Meredith and George are waiting for an elevator. George is reading his book intently while Meredith just looks at him) Meredith: You know at some point you are going to have to talk to me. (George starts walking away) George: I'm gonna take the stairs. (Meredith looks upset and gets on the elevator) (Meredith enters the Pit. She walks up to an ER doctor) Meredith: You paged? Doctor: Yeah just got a new patient. Looks surgical. Maybe neuro. (She pulls open a curtain to reveal a relatively young black couple sitting on a bed together. They're names are Sylvia and Kyle Booker. Meredith looks down and notices the ice-pack on Kyle's groin) Meredith: Doesn't look neuro to me. Doctor: Not him. Kyle: Oh no I'm fine. It's my wife. Sylvia: This is so embarrassing but we didn't know what else to do. (She turns her head slightly to reveal a fork largely embedded in her neck) Meredith: Oh. (Derek has now joined them and is checking the bandages around Sylvia's neck) Kyle: We were at the Hotel Monaco having brunch. I...we had some mimosas... Sylvia (interrupts): Uh can we just skip that part. Can we pull this out and just go...I'm fine really. Kyle: Sylvia was giving me some special attention. Under the table. (Derek looks up at this) Sylvia (embarrassed): Oh dear lord. Derek: Oh! Ok. (Meredith tries not to laugh but smiles broadly) Kyle: Sweetie, they're doctors. They've heard it all. Derek: Yes, we have. Meredith: Absolutely. (Derek grins at Meredith but the Bookers can't see. Meredith sht him a look trying not to smile) Sylvia: While I was down there something happened. It was like a shock went through my body. Kyle: And she clenched. Derek: Clenched? (Sylvia nods) Sylvia: My jaw. It just shut. Kyle: And I panicked. Derek: Oh yeah. (Derek makes a look pain at Meredith and Meredith nods back) Kyle: And I grabbed a fork off the table and it was just instinctual. Sylvia: It doesn't hurt that much. We just didn't want to pull it out cause it's in there pretty good. Meredith: No you did the right thing. Pulling it out could cause more damage. Derek: You know I wanna do an x-ray. I wanna make sure there is no nerve or major blood vessels being comprised. (Kyle kisses Sylvia on the cheek and she nods) Now Mr. Booker did you get your injury um, you know, checked? Kyle: Oh Doctors say I'm fine. It's just some bruising. (Derek nods) Derek: Good. Ok. I wanna find out what's causing the clenching. (Kyle looks at his wife while she nods at Derek) Now do you have a history of seizures? Sylvia: No, nothing like that. Kyle: It may...It may have something to do with her brain aneurysm. Sylvia: Kyle! Kyle: What? Sylvia: I don't want to do this now. (Derek sht Meredith a look and looks down at the chart. Meredith shakes her head) Meredith: No it's not on there. Sylvia: Can't we just take this fork out and go? Derek: No. Kyle: She was diagnosed about 6 weeks ago. Derek: And your doctor didn't recommend surgery? Sylvia: All the surgeons have said it's inoperable. Derek: Hmm. Sylvia: That's why Kyle and I are hear in Seattle. The Space Needle. I've always wanted to see it. Kyle (smiles at his wife): We wanted to see it together. Derek (softly to Meredith): Do an MRI. (He walks around her) It was good to see you today. (Meredith smiles) (Pit ambulance area where Bailey is standing holding her baby who is crying loudly, outside an ambulance. Ray the paramedic is wheeling out a guy stretched out on a gurney. The ambulance is still wailing loudly although parked) Bailey (yells): What do we got? Ray: Tachycardic in the 140s. Systolic is in the 60s. Last was 72 over 40. (He wheels the guy into the hospital and Bailey moves around to the corner to talk to another paramedic) Bailey: Can you turn that off? Turn that off! Paramedic: Ok! (Cristina comes up to her) Cristina: Dr. Bailey. (The ambulance stops wailing and Bailey quickly turns around to face Cristina) Bailey: Here, take him. (She starts remove Will from herself) Cristina: Uh what? Bailey: You're going to watch him. Cristina: No, no, no. You don't want me to do that. I can... Bailey: Yang I have a patient! I need to operate on that patient right now! Take him! Cristina: Page the Chief! Bailey: No I'm not paging anyone. I'm a surgeon. I'm going to do the surgery. Cris...I ... I need you to help me Cristina. (She hands Will over to Cristina who looks horrified) Cristina (speechless): I...I ... (Bailey also hands her Will's baby bag and Will starts to cry loudly) Bailey: Take him. Watch from the gallery! You both can. (She rushes off into the hospital leaving Cristina holding a very upset little baby and kinda unsure what to do. She heads into the hospital) (George is rifling through a filing cabinet in the Pit. He notices Callie standing a few feet away looking at a computer. She suddenly notices him and then looks away quickly. George walks up to her as Callie moves off) George: Hey. Callie: Hey. (She turns back to him) You didn't call me. George (nods): I did. I did. A few times. I just hung up every time. Callie: Nice. Very stalker like. (George nods) Goes with the hair. George: I just thought it would look good a little shorter. Callie (smiles): It is shorter. ... I make you nervous don't I? George (nods): Yeah a little. Callie: That's good. George: Yeah, that's what? (Callie laughs) Callie: Hey are you busy? George: No. Callie: You wanna see something really cool? (Area in the Pit where a young guy named Heath Mercer is sitting on a bed with his hand on an icepack. One of his fingers is extremely bent and obviously broken and looks like it has lost all circulation of blood to it by being quite blue. Callie and George are examining it closely) George: Whoa. Callie: Excellent, right? George: Yeah it is. How'd you do that? Heath: After hockey practice this morning. I didn't have my glove on cause I was getting a drink from the goalie's water bottle and the next thing I know this ass-head crashes into the net, my hand gets tangled in the mesh and I start hearing pops. (Callie places a film onto a viewing board near the bed) Heath: Big pops. Callie: Dr. O'Malley, what do you see? George (moves to look at the screen): Oh dislocation of the PIP joint and multiple fractures. (He moves back to Heath) That must really hurt. Heath: It's just a finger. Last season I took a puck to the face; broke two teeth. (Heath smiles) George (raises his eyebrows): Oh yeah. Callie: Ortho's love hockey season. It's like Christmas everyday. Heath: Can we just like put it on a splint or something? I've got a really big game this afternoon. (Callie and George exchange kinda shocked looks) (Trauma room where Sylvia is now lying on a bed that's been half propped up to remove the fork from her neck. Meredith is checking the wound while Sylvia's husband Kyle sits on a chair in front of Sylvia. A nurse is also in there helping set up) Sylvia: Um, do you know what you're doing? I mean have you ever done this before? Meredith (smiles): Have I ever pulled a fork out of somebody's neck? (Kyle chuckles) Sylvia: Mmm great. Ok. Yeah let's just do it. (to Kyle) Honey? Kyle: Mmm? Sylvia: Talk to me. Kyle: Ok. Sylvia: Distract me. Kyle: Ok. Think about Paris. Sylvia: Ok. Kyle: And the food and the wine. Sylvia (smiling): Uh huh. Kyle: And the long walks we'll take together and the Champs de what? Sylvia: The Champs d'Elys�es. (Meredith yanks the fork out) Kyle: More food. Sylvia: Yes. Kyle: More wine. Meredith: Ok. Sylvia: That's it? (Meredith nods) Oh my god, I didn't even feel anything. You're amazing. (Meredith half smiles) She's amazing. Kyle (to Meredith): So how much do you know about this Dr. Shepherd? Sylvia (warningly): Kyle. No. I do not want another MRI. I want to go to Paris. Kyle: I made a few calls. He has an incredible reputation. Sylvia: Please Kyle. Let's just live our lives. (Meredith is sewing up Sylvia's wound while Kyle looks upset) I wanna go crazy. I wanna crawl underneath the table. I wanna go to Paris while we still can. Meredith: Dr. Shepherd is an extraordinary surgeon. If he thinks he can help a second opinion couldn't hurt, could it? Sylvia: There won't be a second opinion. It'll be a fourth opinion. And when Dr. Shepherd says there's nothing more that he can do, we'll be devastated all over again. I just wanna spend what little time we have left in Paris. Kyle: So do I. But I don't want to go to Paris and wonder if we should've listened to the amazing girl who took a fork out of your neck. (Sylvia just shakes her head at Kyle and begins to chuckle. Kyle chuckles too and Meredith is smiling as well) (Denny's room where Denny is lying in bed and Alex is checking his monitors and writing in his chart) Denny: You're not Izzie. Alex: Sorry to disappoint you. Denny: Not disappointed, just saying. W-here is she? Alex: Well she's busy with other patients. (He smirks at Denny) I'm afraid you'll have to make do with me. Denny: Look man I'm sure you're, I'm sure you're a fine doctor just, just not as much my type. No offense. Alex: Yeah well I'll just have to settle on being Izzie's type. Denny: So you ... you two ... Alex: Yeah. Yeah. (he nods looking awfully pleased with himself) Pretty much you know. Denny: Congratulations. (Fairly empty gallery where Cristina is changing Bailey's baby's diaper on the floor) Cristina (singing): A, b, c, d. (stops singing and removes the diaper) Oh, gross. (Starts singing again) E, f, g, this really couldn't suck any worse. Richard: (appears in the door way): Dr. Yang. Cristina: Oh ah, Dr. Webber. Richard: What's that smell? Cristina: Uh...it's feces, it's baby feces. We've had an incident, sir. Richard: Are you having trouble with the diaper, Yang? Cristina: Sir. No, sir. Richard: Because it looks like you're having trouble with the diaper. Cristina: No, sir, I've got a ... I've got a MD from Stanford and a PhD from Berkley I can handle this diaper. (suddenly looks at Richard pleadingly) Unless you want to? Richard (uncomfortable): Uh...n...no, no. It's alright, it's alright, you carry on. Carry on. (Richard walks away) (Meredith is pushing Sylvia sitting in a wheelchair down a hallway) Sylvia: Can we stop for a moment please? Meredith: Sure. (Meredith stops the wheelchair) Sylvia: I can walk. Meredith: Oh, ok. (Sylvia stands up) The wheelchair is just protocol. Sylvia: Yeah well I'm way past caring about protocol. I just wanna feel my body move while I can. (They start walking down the hall again with Meredith pushing the empty wheelchair) Meredith: You seem incredibly ok with your prognosis. Sylvia (nods): More than ok. I'm a little in love with my prognosis. Woke me up. Woke my marriage up. Been sleepwalking about 15 years and now I am wide awake. I'm having this MRI for Kyle. He's not ready to let go. But me and my aneurysm ... (she nods) we're good friends. (Derek is in the MRI scan viewing room looking over Sylvia's scans. Addison walks in) Addison: Hey, I've been looking for you. Derek: Hey. (he points to the screen in front of him) Look. Look at the size of this aneurysm. Addison: Yeah it's big. Derek: It's huge. Addison: You're going to try to operate? Derek: Well I'm definitely intrigued. Addison: You know who Catherine Deneuve is? Derek: Hmmm ... yeah actress. French. Hot. (He starts taking notes on the MRI) Addison: One of my patients...her husband actually uh said I looked like her. (They both kinda chuckle but Derek isn't really paying attention and more focused on the MRI) Derek: Isn't she blonde? Addison: Yeah ... I guess. I dunno...I...I dunno. Anyways so ... ok, you're busy. Derek (still staring at the screen): Bye. (She walks out of the room) (Denny's CICU room where Denny is sitting up right in his bed and Izzie is sitting on the edge of his bed. They have the moveable table separating them with a game of scrabble open) Denny: I'm not just another pretty face you know. (he taps his head) I've got it going on up here as well. Izzie: So you keep telling me. Denny: Yep. I probably know hundreds of words. Izzie: Really? Hundreds. Wow you're a real brain trust. Denny: Ouch. Izzie: Oh I'm highly competitive. (She moves her scrabble pieces onto the board) Screw. S-C-R-E-W. That's 25 points thank you very much. Denny: Wait a second, now you didn't tell me we were playing naughty word scrabble. Izzie (laughs): We're not playing naughty word scrabble, you just have a dirty mind. Denny: Oh, it's filthy but you're the one that put down screw. Izzie: I was referring to hardware, not sex. (She picks up some more pieces) Denny: Oh. I guess maybe sometimes it's ah; it's hard to tell where you're...where you're coming from. (Izzie looks at him confused) Izzie: What do you mean? Denny: Alex ah ... he may have said something about you guys um being together. Izzie (kinda avoiding eye-contact): Uh well ... he had no business telling you that and besides it's not even true so ... Denny: So you're not together? Izzie: No. I mean yeah a little but not really so ... no. (Denny nods) Denny (sarcastic): Ok ... well sweet. Thanks, (chuckles) thanks for clearing that up. (They kinda smile at each other but then Denny has serious trouble breathing) Izzie: Denny what is it? (Denny just gasps for air) Don't, don't panic! Just try to breathe! (She moves quickly to the door) Izzie: Page Dr. Burke! (Denny's is seriously getting worse and Izzie runs up to him and places an oxygen mask over him) Izzie: Just try to breathe! Just breathe! Just breathe! Take it easy! (Denny just gasps for breath into the mask) (Denny is now lying on his bed breathing slowly but seems to be okay. Izzie and Dr. Burke are standing near his bedside) Izzie: He had flash-pulmonary edema. I switched him to nesiritide, started him on milrinone and put him on BiPAP. Burke: That's a good call Stevens. Denny (slight breathing difficulty): Good call. Bad news right? Burke: It's not good. The fact is Denny, you need a new heart and you're running out of time. Denny: Ok, so what's behind door number 2? Burke: I would like to install a left-ventricular assist device. It's a battery operated machine to help your heart pump. Denny: Battery-operated. (he smiles) I knew it. You people are trying to turn me into a robot. (Burke and Izzie chuckle) It's all part of your evil plan to take over the hospital. Izzie: It's a bridge to transplant Denny. It'll keep you alive while we wait for your new heart. Denny: Yeah that easy, huh? (to Burke) No catch? Burke: There are some risks. Increased damage to your platelets, increased bleeding and if you do choose the assist device, you may not be able to leave the hospital until you get a donor heart. Denny: Phew... (raises his eyebrows) yeah ... any other options? (Burke and Izzie remain silent) I'm gonna need time to think. Burke: Don't take too long Denny. (Burke leaves the room) (On-call room where Izzie is standing pacing. Alex walks in and whistles closing the door behind him) Alex: Always happy to get this page. (He starts to remove his shirt) Izzie: Stop. That's not why I paged you. Alex: What you paged me to the on-call room to talk? Izzie: No I paged you to the on-call room to yell. Why the hell did you talk to Denny about us? You had no right! Alex: Oh right because you never talk to Denny about personal... Izzie (interrupts angry): I don't talk to him about our sex life Alex! That is between us! Alex: Oh, got it! So none of your friends know that we're sleeping together? Izzie: I'm sorry are you saying that you and Denny are friends now? Alex: No I don't become friends with my patients Iz! Izzie (yells): You're an ass! You feel thrat by him! That is why you did that! There is no other reason! Alex: You're his doctor Izzie! And he's your half-dad, possibly soon to be all-dad patient! How can I possibly be thrat by that guy? Izzie: I can't believe you just said that. (She moves to walk past him but he puts his arm up to stop her) Alex: Someone's got too. (He removes his arm and Izzie walks to the door opening it and slams it closed behind her) (Trauma room where Heath is now sitting on an exam table getting his hand bandaged up by Callie. George is standing near them. Mrs. Mercer, Heath's mom is also in the room) Callie: I'll schedule the surgery for your son. In the meantime I'm sending Heath home today with a prescription for hydrocodone to control the pain. Heath: Look I...I get this is a bad break but it doesn't hurt that much. I'm telling you I can handle this! So here's what I'm thinking, we take this off; we put a small splint on my fingers so I can jam it into the glove. I play today and then I'm all yours! (Callie silently shakes her head in disbelief and humor) Mrs. Mercer: You're not playing today. There's no playing today! George: Heath, you're mom's right. Mrs. Mercer: Thank you. Did you hear that? I'm right. (to George) You're mother must be very proud of you. (Heath jumps off the table angry) Heath: Scouts are coming today! College Scouts! I could get a scholarship today! Don't you get that? Callie: Heath, if I cut that bandage off, we risk doing permanent damage to your finger. (She pats him comfortingly) I'm with you man but I'm sorry there's no way we can put your finger into a glove today. Heath: There must be something you can do. I need to play this afternoon. This game ... it's what I've been training for my entire life. This is my chance to go to college. This is my whole future. Mrs. Mercer: Oh honey, you can go to community college and get your grades up... (Heath storms out of the room angrily) Mrs. Mercer: I'm sorry. (she shakes her head) I'm sorry. (She leaves the room) Callie: Oh (she sighs) sucks. George: Yeah. (Outdoor cafeteria where Addison is eating lunch by herself at one of the tables reading a magazine. Mr. Gibson walks up to her with his own lunch tray) Mr. Gibson: Oh, Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. (he points to papers on the table) Are those my wife's test results there? Addison: Yes, they are actually. There's no infection. (Mr. Gibson just appears to stare at Addison) Everything looks good. I'm scheduling a C-section this afternoon. I was actually going to go up after lunch and tell her. (Addison goes back to reading her magazine but realizes that Mr. Gibson is still staring at her and puts down the magazine) Addison: Mr. Gibson... Mr. Gibson (interrupts): You know you really do look like Catherine Deneuve. Addison: I'm talking about your wife. Giving birth to your baby. Mr. Gibson: I know. I know. I'm sorry. May I? (he sits down at the table) Listen I don't mean to focus on your looks. I mean you seem very kind, very intelligent; obviously you're a doctor. I don't mean to objectify or harass you in any way ... (he groans) I'm usually not this awkward but you're just so extraordinarily beautiful. (Addison chuckles obviously flattered) I understand if a beautiful, intelligent woman like you doesn't want to eat with me. So uh ... well, anyway ... (He moves to get up) Addison: No, no. Mr. Gibson: Really? Addison: Yes, stay. It's fine. Mr. Gibson: Ok. All right. Addison: You're gonna eat that pudding? (She grabs his pudding from his tray) (Nearby table where Cristina, Izzie, George are all sitting at table together eating lunch. Cristina still has Bailey's baby in her arms and looks very harassed) Cristina (hisses): Take him! Izzie: No. Bailey gave him to you. Cristina: She's only gonna be in surgery for another half an hour. Hour tops. Take him. Take him. Izzie: You're a liar. And you also smell like vomit. George: Really? Cause I just think it smells like poo. Cristina: Okay this is why some species eat their young. Izzie (to George): Have you talk to Meredith yet? George: Tomorrow ah I'm gonna buy a T-shirt that says 'Stop asking me about Meredith' and I'm gonna wear it everyday until people stop asking me about Meredith! (Meredith walks into the cafeteria and Cristina notices) Cristina: Shh, at least they won't be asking you about your hair! (Meredith sits down at the table next to George. George gets up immediately and leaves) Izzie: Uh! Come on. (to Meredith) Meredith, stop him! (George sits down with Callie at any empty table) Meredith: What should I do? Knock him down? Cristina: Do you know that he cut his hair over my bathroom sink this morning? Meredith: George is a good roommate. If you tell him what's annoying you, he will stop. Cristina: No he's not my...he's not my...See this is why I shouldn't have given up my place. Izzie: He would still be our roommate if Meredith would just apologize. Meredith: I have apologized. I've apologized sincerely. And you know what? It takes two, to make a stupid sexual decision. So, whatever. (She gets up and leaves) Izzie: Oh. I just miss when we all got along. Can't we just go back to that? (Alex comes to the table and hovers over it. Izzie gets up immediately) Izzie: Excuse me; I have to check on a patient. (She leaves and Alex throws his tray down hard on the table and sits down. Instantly Bailey's baby starts crying loudly) Cristina (glares at Alex): Awesome. Awesome! Thanks Alex. Thank you! (She starts getting up) Oh yeah. Ok. (Rocking the baby) Shut it. Shut it. Shut it. (Open hallway in front of the big wall of windows. Meredith and Derek are standing eating lunch together. Meredith is facing the window and Derek is facing the opposite direction) Meredith: They have no right to be mad at me! It's none of their business. Derek: I agree. Meredith: You can't agree. You don't even know what I'm talking about. Derek: You're talking about being mad at your friends for being mad at you. Meredith: I hate them. I do. Derek (leans in close): What the hell did you do? Meredith (chuckles): I'm not telling you. Derek: Oh you know as a friend, you suck. (Derek stands up weirded out when he notices across on the other side of the hospital Addison laughing with Mr. Gibson outside the elevators. Meredith notices his look and follows his gaze. He turns back around to face the window) Meredith: Does Addison know we're friends? (He doesn't answer and continues to chew on his sandwich) Derek: Did you get Sylvia Booker's blood work back yet? (Meredith stares at him a bit) Meredith: I'm going right now. (She leaves) (Gallery overlooking the OR where Bailey is performing surgery. Cristina is holding a very antsy baby Will who is crying loudly. She uses Will's foot to press the intercom button that allows you to communicate to the OR) Cristina (desperate): Dr. Bailey! Bailey (focused on the surgery): What is it Yang? Cristina: Uh. He's crying. Bailey: Let me hear him. (Will however cries loudly over Bailey's voice) Cristina: What? Bailey: Let me hear the baby cry. (Cristina holds up Will to the intercom who cries loudly) Bailey: That's cry number 4. You need to feed him. (Cristina pulls Will away from the intercom) Cristina: Oh god. Oh. (Small waiting room where Sylvia and Kyle are sitting down together on some seats. Derek is standing across from them and Meredith is standing a few feet from Derek) Sylvia: A double-barrel what? Meredith: The double-barrel brain by-pass. Derek: I'm gonna use two scalp arteries to re-direct the blood flow in your brain around the aneurysm. (He sits down across from them) Kyle: How come no one else has mentioned this? Derek: Well it's a surgery that's been performed less than a dozen times. I have performed one successfully and I've watched one. I don't want to understate the risks. (Sylvia doesn't seem very happy at this news) Kyle: Risks? Derek: Mmm hmm. The risks are that the aneurysm could rupture on the table. Kyle: But you think there's a chance. A chance that it could work. Sylvia: No. Hell no. I'm leaving. And we're going to Europe. We've always wanted to see it. We've never had the time. This is the time. We're going. That's it. (Derek seems a little taken-aback at this news) (Derek is walking to a nurses' station. Kyle walks up to him anxiously) Kyle: Dr. Shepherd? Can I get a word? Derek: Yes. Kyle: Um, I'm sorry if my wife offended you. Derek: Oh no. No offense at all. Kyle: Oh. I didn't notice her. Derek: I'm sorry? Kyle: For 15 years I didn't notice her. When we got married she was everything and sometime, somewhere along the way I stopped noticing her, I stopped seeing her and since she's been sick she's all I've seen. And I hate that's what it took, I hate it and I'm sorry. But I love her. And I don't want her...I don't want my wife to die. Please talk to her. (Derek nods) Dr. Shepherd, please. Derek (smiles ruefully): Ok. (Derek walks away) (Nurses' station where Addison is filling in a patient's chart. Bailey comes up to the nurses' station) Addison: I had a lunch date with my patient's husband today. He paid attention to me Miranda. For a whole half hour. (Bailey gives her a look) Bailey: Addison, you're not gonna fix the problem with your husband by having meals with someone else's. Addison: Mmm. (Addison walks away) Bailey: I mean it! (Nurses' station where Cristina is sitting down, unsuccessful attempting to feed Bailey's baby with a bottle. Will is just crying loudly) Cristina: Oh please eat. Eat. I'm begging you to eat! Yummy food. Yummy! Bailey. Breast...milk. Food. Come on! (Burke comes up behind Cristina holding a cup coffee looking highly amused) Burke: Well look at you. (Cristina gives Burke an annoyed look) Cristina: You find this amusing. Burke: And you don't? Cristina: Come on...you know what? I can't help you. I can't help you. I can not help you if you do not want to eat. (George walks by and notices Cristina's struggle and walks up to them) If you're gonna keep on crying, then eat. (George takes Will from Cristina and the bottle. Will instantly stops crying and instantly successful Will to feed from the bottle) Burke: O'Malley, you're a natural. You have nieces and nephews? (Cristina just looks on amazed) George: No sir, babies just like me. Burke (looks at Cristina): Oh speaks to a good bedside manner. (She just glares back. Burke pats George on the shoulder) Keep it up. George: Thanks sir. (Burke walks off and Callie walks up to George) Callie: Hey, is that Bailey's baby? George: Yeah. Callie: Oh, oh he's so cute. (Cristina just tiredly rubs her forehead. Callie leans in close to George) Oh hi there. ... So I scheduled the Mercer kid's surgery for tomorrow afternoon, I assume you want in? (Cristina jumps up eagerly) Cristina: No, no I want in the surgery. Any surgery. I'll do it. Callie: Who are you? Cristina: I'm Cristina. Callie: Sorry, I only need one. George: Oh well absolutely, I'm in. (Cristina sits down dejected) Callie: Ok. Oh and George? George: Hmm? Callie: This is the last invitation I'm extending, (Cristina looks up at this) so the ball's in your court. (Callie walks away) George: Ok. Callie (calls back): Ok. Cristina: Seriously? George: Seriously. Cristina: Nice. Think she has a couch you can sleep on? (Outside emergency entrance of the hospital where Sylvia is standing looking impatient. Derek walks outside and up to her) Derek: Mrs. Booker. Sylvia: I'm waiting for my husband. He's bringing the car. Derek: Mrs. Booker, I know you're worried about the surgery. Sylvia: No, I'm not. I'm not worried about it, because I'm not having it. Derek: You're not having the surgery because of the medical risks. Sylvia: No, I'm not having it because, because for the first time in 12 years I have a great marriage and I have a life. And I wanna live it. Derek: You, you have weeks. If this surgery is successful, you're looking at decades. Sylvia (shakes her head): I don't think you understand. I'm not crazy and I don't wanna die but I don't wanna go back to being Kyle's bed warmer in a full-length flannel nightgown. (Derek nods) Can you understand that? Derek: I understand that you're tired of settling, so don't. Fight. Fight for your life. Fight for your marriage. Let me operate. And make a decision right now that you'll never settle again. (Sylvia contemplates this) (Izzie is sitting in Denny's room watching over him looking very worried. He's just lying in bed breathing into an oxygen mask looking very sickly. He looks over at her and removes the mask) Izzie (anxious): The LVAD will inhibit organ deterioration. It will allow you to get off most of the meds that you're on and it'll give your heart a much needed rest. (Denny smiles at her concern) Denny (softly): Izzie, I'm just ... I'm just so tired. Izzie: I appreciate that but the LVAD also has increased survival rates over conventional therapies. And I think that you need... Denny (interrupts still soft spoken): Hey. Hey. ... Having this surgery ... it means I don't get to leave here. And you know how much I hate hospitals. Izzie (nods): I do know. But as your doctor I can't support you making any other decision. (Denny smiles) The surgery will allow you more time and we need more time. Denny: We? Izzie: We uh your doctors, need more time. ... ... And we need more time. Denny: So, you'll be here? Izzie: Everyday. Denny: And as an added bonus, it'll really piss off Alex. (Izzie half laughs) Izzie: Yes, that it will. Denny: Ok. Izzie: Ok? Denny (nods): Ok. Izzie (smiles relieved): Ok. Ok. (She helps Denny place the oxygen mask back on) (Emergency entrance of the hospital where Heath walks in smiling holding a bloody rag over his hand. George nearby notices him & walks up to him) George: Heath, hi. Heath: Hey. Told you I couldn't miss my game and I didn't. I made 2 goals and 1 assist and there were scouts there! (George notices the bloody rag) George: What did you do? Heath: I cut off my finger. (George looks up shocked) It's ok. I saved it so you guys can sew it back on. (He holds up an ice-cooler in his other hand. George stares at him still thoroughly shocked and opens up the ice-cooler. There in a large batch of ice lies Heath's cut off finger. George nods at him still amazed and Heath nods back smiling happily) (OR where Callie is operating on Heath's finger. George is in there helping) Callie: Tissue infection in here. Not good. George: He said he found out how to do it on the internet. Who puts up Web pages on how to cut off your own finger? Callie: Well he's got a passion and he sacrificed for it. You gotta respect that. George (amazed): No ... you don't. (to scrub nurse) Thank you Bokie. (back to Callie) He cut off his own finger. A finger... (he moves out of Callie's way) sorry...that would've healed perfectly in a few months. (he clamps down on the finger) I got it. Callie: Sometimes you can't wait. Just want the pain to stop. So you cut it off. The problem and the pain. George (shakes his head): That doesn't and the pain no. I mean if it's that painful...(he accepts another instrument from the scrubs nurse) Thank you- (back to Callie) to start with, even if you cut it off there's always gonna be that phantom pain. Callie (stares at him): Your ex did a real number on you, huh. (George looks a little taken aback) (Hallway where Sylvia prepped for the OR is lying on a hospital bed being wheeled down the hallway. Meredith and two other interns are pushing the bed with Kyle also walking bedside the bed) Sylvia: You're quitting your job. Kyle: Oh absolutely. Sylvia: And we're selling the house. Kyle: Mmm hmm. Sylvia: And we're moving to Paris and we're spending that nest egg now. Kyle: Yeah. Sylvia: Promise? Kyle: I promise. Sylvia: Baby? Kyle: Yeah. Sylvia: If I die, promise me you'll do it anyway. Kyle: I promise. (Meredith pushes a button to open the double doors that are coming up and she turns to Kyle) Meredith: I'm sorry, this is far as you can go. (Kyle looks a little distraught and moves up close to Sylvia) Kyle: Sylvia, please don't die. Sylvia: I'll do my best. (He leans and they kiss) (Kyle is left standing watching as they wheel Sylvia away) (On-call room where Cristina is lying asleep holding Will who is also asleep on the bottom bunk-bed. Bailey comes in and gently removes Cristina's arm holding Will and leans in to take him. Cristina wakes groggy) Cristina (groggy): I fed him. Oh god there's poop everywhere. Wait. (Bailey scoops up Will into her arms and Cristina sits up startled and more awake) Bailey: Go back to sleep Cristina. (Bailey bends down to grab a bag filled with Will's baby things near the doorway and Cristina takes the opportunity to speak) Cristina: I know you're the boss of me and you could destroy my career and make my life a living hell and trture and pain and all that but just in the future (she looks earnestly at Bailey) I don't baby sit! Bailey: Fine. (She leaves and closes the door behind her) (OR where Addison is performing a C-Section on Mrs. Gibson with an OR team. She takes out the crying baby and hands the baby to George who is also there) (OR where Burke is performing surgery on Denny with an OR team. Izzie is there to standing and watching) Izzie: I read that a patient's heart can sometimes remodel itself and they can be weaned off the LVAD. Burke: It's not likely in Denny's case. His heart is too weak. (Scrub room where Addison is putting back on her wedding ring and engagement ring looking contemplative) (Addison is walking down a hallway. She stops and looks into a picture frame, using the glass as a guide to fix and check her hair. She moves and stands in front of Mrs. Gibson's room. The Gibson's are both cooing over their baby girl) Addison: I just wanted to make sure everybody was doing ok. Mrs. Gibson (staring at her baby girl): Everything's fine. (Mr. Gibson doesn't even look up just cooing over his daughter) Mrs. Gibson: Thank you so much. (Addison smiles but realizes that Mr. Gibson isn't really going to pay attention to her) Mr. Gibson (looks up briefly): Oh yeah right. Thanks. Thank you. (He looks back down at his daughter) (Addison walks back down the hall and shakes her head in annoyance at herself) (Post-op ward where Heath is now lying in a bed after his surgery. His hand is all bandaged and is being held up by wires. Mrs. Mercer is sitting in a chair next to his bedside. Callie is standing on the other side and George is standing a few feet away) Callie: When you put your freshly severed finger into a grungy-bacteria filled glove, you got a severe infection. (Mrs. Mercer just looks teary-eyed) Heath: What? No. The internet didn't say anything about infection. (George has moved up to stand next to Callie) George: Mrs. Mercer we didn't realize how deep the infection had gone until we were in there. There was too much tissue damage. Callie: Heath, the infection was caused by a methicillin resistant staph bacteria and it's continuing to spread. We'll be lucky if we can preserve enough muscle for you to have any hand function at all. Mrs. Mercer: What do you mean? (to George) What does she mean? George: You may never regain complete control of your hand. Heath (slightly panicked): No. That's wrong. You're wrong. Ronnie Lott played for the 49ers when he cut off his finger, he could still play. I got the directions off the internet. I... Mrs. Mercer (interrupts, stroking Heath's head): My poor baby. Heath: Mom, stop. They're lying. They're just trying to scare me. Callie: Heath. I'm sorry. I really am but ... (she shakes her head) you're hockey career is over. (Heath stares at her shocked and upset and turns to his mother) Heath: Mom. (Mrs. Mercer just strokes Heath comfortingly, crying) Mom. They're wrong, right? They have to be wrong. Mrs. Mercer: Oh sweetheart. Heath: I got the directions off the internet! (George and Callie watch on sad) (OR where Derek is operating on Sylvia with his OR team. Meredith is assisting) Meredith: Is there any evidence of vasospasm or bleeding? Derek: No, it looks good. Meredith: So, do you think they'll move to Paris? Derek: I hope so. (Gallery which is filled with people watching, including Cristina, George, Bailey with Will and Addison. Derek glances up and stares at Addison contemplatively) (Scrub room where Derek and Meredith are washing up after the surgery. The OR is pretty much packed up and cleaned) Meredith: That was amazing. Derek: It was, wasn't it? Meredith: Yeah. (Derek moves and to dry his hands) Derek (to himself): Yeah. (He walks back to stand in front of Meredith) Meredith. You know I was kidding this morning. (he smiles) I mean you can tell me about this horrible thing. Come on, you can talk to me. Meredith: As a friend? Derek: As a friend. (Meredith contemplates this, chewing on her lip. She nods a little and turns to Derek) Meredith: There's a line between friends and not-friends and if I tell you this, if I tell you this whole horrible thing then you have to react as my friend. Not my not-friend. (Derek nods slightly) Derek: I can do that. All right. You tell me what's wrong, I'll tell you how to fix it. (He smiles at her) (Meredith closes her eyes in kinda an 'ugh, I can't believe I'm doing this) Meredith: Ok. Are you ready? Derek (smiles): I'm ready. (There's a brief silence and Meredith groans slightly. She turns to face Derek again) Meredith: I slept with George. (Derek loses his smile quick fast) And, and it was a horrible mistake. (Derek looks kinda sickened but tries not to let Meredith notice) And now everything has changed. And I don't know how to repair it. (Derek nods) I don't even know where to start but I just know that I have to and ... (She trails off and looks at Derek who just looks pensive) Say something friendly. (Derek clears his throat) Derek: You tell him that. You find George and you apologize. Meredith: That's what everyone is saying but he won't listen. Derek: Make him listen. You tell him you're sorry. Just tell him again and again and again until he listens. Meredith: How do I do that? Derek (smiles at her): You do what I do. (he grins at her) Use the elevator. (Meredith smiles and Derek leaves looking kinda upset) (Derek is standing by himself in the open hallway looking out the big wall of windows) (George is walking down the hallway with his back-pack dressed to go home. He dashes for an empty elevator that is about to close and makes it in. Meredith runs in just, squeezing in before the door closes. George moves to press the open door button but Meredith presses a button to a floor to stop him) Meredith: You're trapped. ... And you don't have to talk. I'll do the talking. (George just stares up at the ceiling, avoiding eye-contact) George, I am truly very deeply, sorry. And I'm not going to make excuses (George continues staring at the ceiling) I'm just sorry. ... Look, I know you're going to get off this elevator and walk away and not look back, I know that. But George, we're friends. Real friends, and that means no matter how long it takes when you finally do decide to look back I'll still be here. (George still stares at the ceiling. The elevator stops, he gets off of it and leaves and starts walking down the hallway and doesn't look back with Meredith staring after him) MVO: As doctors, as friends, as human beings we all try to do the best we can. (Denny's room after the surgery. Izzie is sitting at his bed-side again looking upset and worried. She takes his hand in hers and strokes it comfortingly) Denny: Hey (Izzie looks up startled that he's awake and sighs) Denny: Don't you have somewhere to be? Izzie: Yeah. (She nods) Yeah I'm there. MVO: But the world is full of unexpected twists and turns. (Cristina is opening up the door to her and Burke's apartment) MVO: And just when you've gotten the lay of the land, the ground underneath you, shifts. (Cristina enters smiling and looking around for Burke. She turns the corner and loses the smile slowly when she notices Burke playing trumpet and George playing the clarinet with him. They're playing 'When the Saints Go Marching In') MVO: And knocks you off your feet. (Cristina just walks into the bedroom closing the door behind her) MVO: If you're lucky, you end up with nothing more than a flesh wound. (Derek is walking down a hallway in the hospital. He stops at a doorway and smiles. Sylvia is waking up from her surgery lying in bed with Kyle sitting at her bedside) MVO: Something a band-aid will cover. (Sylvia looks over at Kyle and he smiles at her. He takes both of his hands in hers) (Derek enters his trailer. Addison is sitting in a dressing gown on their bed reading over some papers) Derek: Hi. Addison: Hey. (He removes his jacket and makes his way to their tiny bedroom) MVO: But some wounds are deeper than they first appear and require more than just a quick fix. (Derek smiles briefly and sits on the bed. He moves and lies propped up in front of her. He looks at Addison sighing. Addison finally looks up from her magazine confused) Addison: What? Derek: I was indifferent. You know in New York before Mark. I was just (he shrugs) indifferent towards you. Addison (a little amazed): Yes. Derek: I was absent. Addison: Yes. (He nods) Derek: I'm partly to blame for what's happened to our marriage. Addison: Yeah. Derek: I'm sorry...I'm working on it. (Addison smiles softly at him. Derek nods) Addison (nods): Ok. (Derek sits up and starts removing his shoes while Addison watches him deep in thought) MVO: With some wounds, you have to rip off the band-aid, let them breathe and give them time to heal. (Meredith's house) (Meredith is lying in bed by herself just staring out the window)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x20 - Band Aid Covers the b*llet Hole"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x21: Superstition Original Airdate: 3/19/2006 Written by: James D. Parriott & Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Tricia Brock (Seattle Scenes) MVO: My college campus has a magic statue. (SGH Façade) MVO: It's a long-standing tradition for students to rub it's nose for good luck. (Doctor is writing on OR board) MVO: My freshman roommate really believed in the statue's power... (Meredith and Addison in scrub room) MVO: ...and insisted on visiting it to rub it's nose before every exam. (Meredith watches Addison take off her wedding ring and pin it to her scrubs. After pinning them on, Addison pats them for good measure.) (Burke is speaking with a nurse.) Burke: Are you sure my scrub caps weren't in the laundry delivery? Nurse: I triple-checked. Burke: You're sure? Nurse: Yeah, I'm sure. MVO: Studying might have been a better idea. She flunked out her hm year. But the fact is we all have little superstitious things that we do. (Derek is getting ready to start operating) Derek: All right, everybody. It's a beautiful morning to save lives. Let's have some fun. MVO: If it's not believing in magic statues, it's avoiding sidewalk cracks, or always putting out left shoe on first. (Bailey is at an operating table, she takes a few breaths before starting) Bailey: Ok. MVO: Knock on wood. Bailey: Ten blade. (Addison and Meredith's surgery) MVO: Step on a crack, break your mother's back. (A blood vessel bursts and the monitor starts beeping) (Burke's OR) Burke: Paddles. (Cristina hands him the interior heart paddles) Burke: Ten joules. (The monitor starts beeping) (Derek's OR) Anesthesiologist: He's having a reaction. I have to take him off. Derek: I'm in the middle of his brain. (Monitor starts beeping) (Bailey's OR) Bailey: We're losing him. (Monitor starts beeping) (Derek's OR. A nurse is removing his head gear, the patient has obviously died.) (Burke's OR. A nurse is removing his head gear, the patient has obviously died.) (Bailey's OR, the patient has obviously died) Bailey: Time of death... (Burke's OR) Burke: Time of death... (Derek's OR) Derek: Time of death... (Addison's OR) Addison: Call it, Grey. MVO: The last thing we want to do is offend the gods. Meredith: Time of death 8:17. (The interns are in the locker room, changing.) George: Four surgeries, four fatalities and the day has barely started. (To Cristina) Can I have a bite of that? Cristina: No. You're in my apartment, you don't get to be in my food. George: Dr. Burke gave me a protein bar, this morning. Cristina: Burke packs his lunch for him. Did I mention? Izzie: I talked to the morgue guy this morning. Meredith: The one with the unibrow? Izzie: The one with the like teeth thing. And he said that surgical fatalities come in threes and sevens. Says there'll be three more before midnight. Cristina: Well, ok then. Since "dad tooth" morgue guy said so. Izzie: He's the morgue guy. He knows things about death. (Meredith picks up something from the floor and tries to hand it to George) Meredith: You dropped this. (George doesn't take it and walks away) He's still ignoring me. Cristina: Ignore him back. Meredith: Derek says I should apologize until he listens. Cristina: Derek says? Meredith: It's good advice. He's my friend. That's good friend advice. (Alex walks up and pulls Izzie aside) Izzie: What? Alex: Did you sneak out last night? Izzie: Yeah. I, um...I couldn't sleep. (Bailey enters) Bailey: Come on. Meredith: Where? Bailey: ER. George: All of us? Bailey: We've all had deaths. Let's all go save a life. (They all begin walking through the hall, as they walk by the nurse's station Addison stops them.) Addison: Uh, Dr. Bailey. (Hands her a cup) Here you go. Bailey: What's this? Addison: Hot cocoa. It's a little ritual we had in New York. Four surgeries, four deaths, I figure we could all use a little good juju. Bailey: And cocoa equals juju how? Addison: Hey, hey, hey. Don't question the cocoa. Carry on. (They all start to walk away, Meredith is trailing behind.) Meredith. (Hands her a cup) Thank you for your help this morning. Meredith: Oh. Thank you, Addison. Addison: Yeah. Thank you. (Derek observes the exchange between Meredith and Addison. After Meredith leaves he walks up.) Addison: Here you go. (She hands him a cup) Derek: Juju. Addison: Yep. Derek: You jujued Meredith. Addison: I did. In the spirit of friendship. Derek: Hmm. Addison: What? Are we not being friends with Meredith anymore? Derek: No, no, we are. Meredith and I are friends. Addison: And you and I are married. So then, by proxy, Meredith and I are friends. Derek: That's very big of you. Addison: Yeah. Derek: You don't have to do that. It's not like I'm gonna be friends with let's say, uh...Mark. Addison: Yeah, well, neither am I. Now finish your juju before somebody else dies. Derek: Hmm. (Meredith enters a room where she throws away the cup of juju.) (Burke is walking through the hallway talking on his cell phone.) Burke: There are ten of them. Music notes. Colorful patterns. They were sent out last night. (Burke walks up to the OR board where Richard is standing) Richard: Sorry to hear about your valve replacement, this morning. Burke: The laundry misplaced my scrub caps. Richard: You know, there's some foolish talk going around about fatality clusters in threes and sevens. Burke (On phone): Look, are you sure they weren't sent to another hospital? Richard: (To Nurse who is erasing the OR board) How many electives have they canceled today? Nurse: This is our third. Richard: And what have the surgeons' been giving as their reasons? Burke (On phone): Because I prefer my own caps. Richard: You're not pushing your surgeries because you don't have your personal caps. You understand me? Burke (Looking confused): I didn't push any surgeries. (On phone) No, no. The question is: when will you find them? (Burke walks away) Richard: No one changes that board unless they talk to me. No one. (Bailey and her interns are gathered around a silent ER) Cristina: Great. No blood, no guts, no lives to save. It's dad quiet. Bailey: Did you really just say that? Izzie: Cristina... Cristina: What? George: You said the Q-word. Izzie: It's like saying Macbeth in theater. Cristina: Please. You think because someone says it's quiet that it'll mean... (ER doors open) Woman: Can somebody help us here? She's coughing up blood. Bailey: O'Malley! Take that. (Everyone's pagers start beeping) Alex: Denny Duquette. Izzie: I got it. Alex: He's my patient. Bailey: He's both your patients. Answer the call. Nurse: Two incoming. (Ambulance bay) Bailey: Ok, uh, Yang, first one's yours. Grey, take number two. Paramedic: Jesse Fannon, 32, unrestrained driver in a rear end collision. There was spider webbing on the front windshield where his head ht. BP's 120 palp. Pulse 75. Bailey: Well, what do you want to do, Yang? (Man is counting on his fingers) Cristina: Primary and secondary survey. Uh, head CT and X-ray. Bailey: Ok. Page Shepherd when you get there. Jesse: Wait! I'm counting the siren whoops. We can't go until it reaches 33. Paramedic: He also seems to have a touch of OCD. (Other ambulance) Paramedic: Nikki Ratlin, 30, erratic BP in the field. Complaining of chest and leg pain. Meredith: What happened? Nikki: I got struck by lightning. Cristina: Can anyone spell coincidence? (ER) Nikki: My horoscope said, "Stay close to home today." Aries couldn't have been any clearer. Ok, I guess it could have said, "Don't leave the house today unless you want to get struck by lightning." Ouch. Bailey: See, Ms. Ratlin, you have no sign of wounds from lightning. Nikki: It was a sign. Clearly getting struck by lightning is a sign. I sign that I shouldn't have left my house. Meredith: Nikki, normally people struck by lightning have a wound where the bolt entered and exited the body. Nikki: Well...well, I wasn't struck struck. The tree was struck and it fell on me. Meredith: A tree fell on you? Nikki: A big, like, branch or limb, Whatever. Same difference. (Bailey scribbles on the paper that she had been writing on and crumbles it up.) Bailey: No, actually, medically, it isn't the same difference. And it would be helpful if from now on you told us the whole truth. Nikki: You want to know the truth? My boyfriend loves that tree. He's totally going to freak out. Ow. (George runs up to Richard in the hall) George: Chief? There's a Ms. Warner down in Admitting. She's asking for you. Richard: Who? (Richard and George get in the elevator) George: Um, Olive Warner? Fifties. Uh, blonde hair. She said she's known you for about 20 years. Richard: Are you talking about Ollie? George: Right. Ok. Uh, Ollie Warner. She presented with upper GI bleeding. And she had a TIPSS procedure last month for esophageal varices. (Richard and George exit the elevator, he walks up the woman who had been coughing up blood.) Richard: I'll take this from here, O'Malley. George: Happy to help, sir. Richard: No, thank you. I got this myself. (To Woman) Ollie. Ollie: Hi, Richard. Good to see you. (Alex and Izzie are in Denny's room) Alex: Sinus tachycardia, low-grade fever, pulse ox 75. Izzie: I'm hearing rales in your lungs. Denny: Yeah. A freight train rolls through at noon. Izzie: How bad is the pain? Denny: I don't know. A five or six when I breathe. Alex: Which means a seven or eight when you're not trying to impress your doctor. Denny: Heard, uh, four people died in surgery this morning. Sid they were expecting three more. Alex: You get that from a nurse? Denny: Never reveal my sources. Just like to avoid the OR. (Alex and Izzie exchange looks) And I'm not liking that look. (Izzie sits on the edge of Denny's bed) Izzie: This could be a pulmonary embolism, Denny. A complication from the LVAD surgery. We gonna have to talk to Dr. Burke. (Alex clears his throat and Izzie stands up) (Meredith and Cristina are in the elevator with their patients) Meredith: I got hot chocolated. The She-Shepherd hot chocolated me. It's her juju. Cristina: I don't like people who say juju. Nikki: I say juju. Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Juju, juju, juju. Juju, juju, juju. Meredith: I didn't drink it. Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Nikki: You're not obligated to honor someone else's juju. Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Cristina: Thought you were being friends. Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Meredith: I am. With him. Do I have to be friends with her too? Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Nikki: Definitely not. Jesse: Juju, juju, juju. Cristina: Maybe. Jesse. Juju, juju, juju. Meredith: I'll, uh, call psych for you. Cristina: That'd be good. Thanks. Nikki (Screaming): Ow! Ow! (Callie is setting Nikki's broken leg.) Callie: All right. That's the worst of it. Nikki: Oh, I never should have gotten out of bed. But I really wanted to surprise my boyfriend before he left for school. He had a huge exam today and I just, you know, I wanted to wish him luck. (George enters the room) George: Dr. Torres. Hey. Hi. Uh, can I give you a hand? Callie: You missed the boat, George. George: You mean on this case or...? Callie: Or...a hot chick gives you her number, you're supposed to call. Nikki: Yeah. George: I...I was...I mean, I am. Callie: Too late. Nikki: Ouch. Don't give up. I mean, if you really like her. (Meredith enters) George: Uh...ok. (George leaves) Nikki: Ok, the plot thickens. Callie: Nikki, Dr. Grey here is going to take you upstairs for a CT. But before she does, I have to ask: you're bruised all up and down your left side. You sure a tree branch did all this? Nikki: You think my boyfriend did this? He would never ht a woman. Ever. Callie: Mm-hmm. The bruises doesn't look like a tree branch ht you. Nikki: Fine. Ok, you guys are going to think I'm really weird, but I was sort of up in the tree when the lightning ht. And...I fell. Callie: You climbed a tree in a thunderstorm? Nikki: I really wanted it to be a surprise, you know, for my boyfriend. And...um, I just...I had to see if his psycho dog was in the yard because of, like, the barking and stuff and...I know. It sounds really weird. Does it sound really weird? Meredith: Not at all. Callie: No. Nikki: and this thing is, I mean, he wasn't even there. Meredith: The dog? Nikki: No. My boyfriend. He wasn't even home. I really shouldn't have gotten out of bed. (Derek walks by Cristina, she stops him) Cristina: Oh, Dr. Shepherd. I've got a 34-year-old male with a blunt head trauma and severe case of OCD. Derek: Oh, really. Did you call for a psych consult? Cristina: Yes. Derek: Let me know when you get a CT. Cristina: Ok. Derek: Thank you. (Derek walks away and Burke walks up) Burke: Hey. Cristina: Hey. Hey, uh, sorry about that, uh, valve replacement. Burke: Oh, thank you. Laundry lost my caps. Cristina: The guy didn't die because you weren't wearing one of your caps. Burke: I know that. I just prefer to operate wearing my own. It's a comfort thing. Cristina: Huh, well...I prefer having George out of our apartment. So I guess we both have comfort things. Burke: Yeah, what are you saying? Cristina: Uh, you know, um...I have one of your caps in my locker. Burke: Why do you have one of my caps... Cristina: That's not the point. You know, the point is, um, is that I think I'm going to keep it hostage. So you kick Bambi out and you get your cap back. Burke: Oh, well. I don't do well with ultimatums. Cristina: Maybe you should think of it more as a...trade. (Cristina walks away and George exits the elevator) George: Dr. Burke. I've got free time. Do you have any cases, do you need help... Burke: Actually, I do. (They both get into the elevator) Burke: Cristina has something of mine and I need you to get it back. (Richard enters Ollie's room. A young lady is in the room with Ollie.) Richard: Gretchen, would you mind leaving us alone for a minute? Gretchen: Ok. Richard: Thank you. Ollie: She's my new baby. Six months sober, she's already on the ninth step. Richard: You must be proud. Ollie: Always. Richard: You're on a transplant list, Ollie? Ollie: A couple of years now. Richard: The cirrhosis prevents blood from flowing into your liver. So it's backing up into your esophagus. Causing the ruptures. It's serious, Oll. Ollie: Well, of course it is. I mean, you don't puke blood if it's not serious. The question is: can you treat it? Richard: Maybe. Surgically. We'll have to run more tests and...whatever we do, it's a stop-gap. You need a new liver. Ollie: Yet another reason I should've laid off the sauce. You look scared. Richard: I am scared, Ollie. Ollie: Haven't seen you at a meeting in a while. Richard: I know, I know. Ollie: How've you been? Richard: We're talking about you. Ollie: Now I'm asking about you. Richard: Ellis Grey's daughter's working at the hospital. Ellis is in a nursing home with Alzheimer's. I try to go see her every chance I get. Ollie: You're having an affair with the woman who drove you to your alcoholic bottom. Richard: Ollie, we're not having an affair. She's sick. Ollie: You're lying to your wife? Richard: I'm not lying. Ollie: You're lying by omission. You are having an emotional affair. And now you're lying to your sponsor about it. Richard: You haven't been my sponsor in years. Ollie: I still have the right to bust your ass if I see you slipping. Richard: I'm not slipping. Ollie: Not yet. But you're making a pretty big mess. (Richard stands up and sighs) How many years you have now? Richard: Just passed 17. Ollie: I'm proud of you. And I'm scared too. Richard: You got me sober, Ollie. You walked me through it. (He takes her hand) And I'm going to walk you through this. (George is digging through Cristina's locker) George: Ok. That's... (Cristina enters the locker room) George: She still has... Cristina: You're a pervy little boy, George. And you're not finding the cap. George: I'll do your dishes for a month. Cristina: I don't do dishes. George: I'll do your laundry. Cristina: I don't do laundry. George: Maybe that's why Burke likes having me around. Cristina: Interesting, interesting. Are you having sex with him? George: No. Cristina: Then he likes having me around more. George: Why's it always have to be a competition? What do you want for the cap? Cristina: You out of the apartment. George: I'm not leaving until Burke says I have to leave. Cristina: Then you're not getting the cap. Now clean up my crap. George: No. (Bailey and Meredith are looking at CT scans) Meredith: Wow. Is that her spleen? Bailey: Looks like a grade three laceration. Maybe a four. What was she doing standing under a tree in a thunderstorm? Meredith: She wasn't standing under it. She was climbing it. Bailey: Why? Meredith: Uh...I'm getting the feeling she's a little bit of a stalker. Bailey: Do we need to call the police? Meredith: I don't think so. I think she's more a gentle stalker than a "kll you with a Knfe" stalker. Bailey: Right. Well, let's hope she lives to gently stalk another day. Meredith: Hey, you don't believe in that seven fatality thing, do you? Bailey: I believe this girl needs her spleen removed immediately. Go pick up the labs and get her on the board. Then we'll break the news. (Denny is breathing heavily, on a OR table) Izzie: It's almost over. Denny: You like horses, Izzie? Izzie: Everybody likes horses. Denny: That's not true. You know, horses are a great judge of character. You don't like horses, means they don't like you. Izzie: Huh. Alex: I've got an uncle that's a rodeo cowboy. Denny: Huh. No kidding. Burke: This is a big clot, Denny. I can't get it with the catheter. I'm sorry. We're gonna have to open your chest again. (Cristina is taking Jesse to CT) Jesse: I was counting the clicks. The...turn signal clicks. I couldn't move until it ht 333. The light was green, but I couldn't move. I can't blame them for hitting me. Raj: How long have you been feeling these compulsions? Jesse: A little bit all my life, but it's been out of control the last three years. Raj: Onset at 30 is typical. Jesse: Ruined a marriage. I can't hold a job... Cristina: Ok, Mr. Fannon, do you... Jesse: Is it clean? I need to know if it's clean. Cristina: It's very clean. Raj: Any relatives with OCD? Jesse: My mother. klled herself at 38. Ruined her life. Now it's ruining mine. (Cristina clears her throat) Jesse: Clean, clean, clean? Cristina: Uh, we clean it between each patient. Raj: I think he needs you to say "clean, clean, clean." Cristina: It's clean, clean, clean. Jesse: Thank you. I know it's annoying. I can't help it. (Cristina walks past the window and sees George watching from the other side) Jesse: Uh, find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck. Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck. Cristina: Ok, Mr. Fannon, do you... Jesse: Find a penny... Raj: Repetitive rhymes, prayers. It's classic. He needs to say it a specific number of times. Probably a multiple of three. Cristina: Let's get him in before he decides to start again. Raj: Is everything all right with, uh...that? (Raj nods to the window where George has his face pressed against it) Jesse: Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck. Cristina: Just, uh, don't look at him. (Meredith is walking through the halls, highlighting a book. She walks up to Derek, at the same time Addison exits a nearby elevator.) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hi. Meredith: Hey... Addison: Oh, hey. Meredith: Hi. Derek: Hi. Meredith: I, uh...have to... Derek: Yeah. Addison: Yeah. (Meredith walks away) Derek: I do too. (Derek walks away) Addison: Yeah, I got...something too, so... (Richard is in Ollie's room, talking to Ollie and Gretchen.) Richard: I wish I had good news. The TIPSS procedure you had last month failed. Gretchen: What does that mean? Ollie: It means you're lucky you got sober young. Richard: Ollie, it means I'm going to have to put in a portacaval shunt. It's complicated. It has only a 50% survival rate. Ollie: What's my other choice? (Richard just looks at her) Ok, then. Um...you'll be the one to do it? Richard: I've performed this surgery nine times. Had four patients survive. Ollie: It's perfect then. I'll be your five out of ten. (Bailey and Meredith enter Nikki's room) Nikki: I'm not having surgery today. Bailey: You have a ruptured spleen. Nikki: And I'm sure that the spleen is very important. But I'm not having surgery today. You can operate after midnight but not one minute before. Bailey: Miss Ratlin, if I thought it would be safe I'd be more than happy to wait until after midnight. However, I have a husband and a baby at home who won't be happy. You know who else won't be happy? You. Your spleen is bleeding. Spleen trumps horoscope. Nikki: But it was more than just my horoscope. I went out to my car this morning. Flat tire. That's a sign, but I just changed the tire. Then there's a wreck on the freeway. Do I turn around and go home like it's telling me to? No, I detour an hour out of my way so that I can get to Kevin's house. And when I get to Kevin's house, I get struck by lightning! Meredith: But you weren't struck by lightning. Nikki: I'll die, ok? If you operate on my today I will die because I know I will. Please, just...just call my boyfriend and tell him that I'm having an operation at midnight. Because he will want to be here. Meredith: Ok. Nikki: Please. (Bailey and Meredith start walking out of the room.) Meredith: Should I call psych? Bailey: You can give it a sht. In the meanwhile, get her down to ICU. Poor girl's going to kll herself trying not to die. (Alex is drawing Denny's blood) Alex: Izzie paints a pretty picture because she likes you, you know? Denny: Ok. Alex: I'm just saying she likes you. Which is going to be hard on her. Denny: You mean...when I die? Come on. I'm asking you...man-to-man. Alex: With a clot in your pulmonary artery, it'll cut off the oxygen to your lungs and you'll die of hypoxia. If the hypoxia doesn't kll you, the strain on your heart will. Denny: And the surgery? Alex: It's not a routine procedure. You're at serious risk for bleeding because of the anticoagulants already in your system. What I'm saying is Izzie likes you. And she's not going to be the one to pull away. (Meredith and Cristina are at the lunch table in the outdoor cafeteria.) Meredith: How's your guy? Cristina: Brain's bleeding. Needs surgery. Want to know why? Because he couldn't move his car until he stopped counting. Meredith: My girl? Ruptured spleen? Won't have surgery because of her horoscope. Cristina: Oh, well, we should introduce them. They make a nice crazy couple. (George walks up and sits down) Cristina: Uh, you know what? I'm sitting with Meredith. Have some self-respect. George: Dr. Burke's orders trump any personal issues I might have. Meredith: Is the craziness rubbing off on him? Cristina: He's trying to...stalk Burke's lucky cap from me. Meredith: Burke has hat juju? Cristina: Apparently. Meredith: And you're using it against him? Cristina: Well, they're forcing me to. Because of the clarinet playing and the running and all the breakfast food. (Izzie walks up and sits down) Izzie: You guys, this whole death cluster thing is just ridiculous, right? I mean, just cause four died today doesn't necessarily mean there'll be three more before midnight. Cristina: It doesn't, Tinkerbell? For reals? Meredith: Are you worried about Denny? Izzie: Yeah. Of course I am. He's my patient. I mean, but if you're asking me if I'm "worried" about Denny, no. I'm sleeping with Alex, so...it's just...Hey, did Burke say anything to you...about Denny's surgery? Did he...? Cristina: No. It's your case. Izzie: Yeah. I know. I'm just asking that, you know, as your boyfriend, if... Cristina: I don't know why you'd care. You're sleeping with Alex, right? Izzie: Yeah. Cristina: Yeah. Izzie: Right. No, whatever. I'm just saying. There's no such thing as a death cluster. It's just stupid. Right? Meredith: I have to go convince my patient to let us operate. Cristina: Mm-hmm. (Cristina and Derek are talking with Jesse) Jesse: You're removing part of my skullcap? Do you really have to do that? Derek: It's the only way I can get to the affected part of the brain. Jesse: And the operating room, it's clean, clean, clean? Derek: Yes. It's clean, clean, clean. I'm gonna go get ready. (Derek leaves, Jesse starts clicking the light on and off) Cristina: Can you stop that, please? Jesse: No. Sorry. I wish I could. (Cristina moves to reveal George standing behind her.) Jesse (to George): She's judging me. George: No, she's not. Cristina: Yes, she is. I've been living with this for three years. And it's always the people who are most like me who judge me the most. You're type A, right? Straight A student? Top of your class? Cristina: Yes, I was. Jesse: So, you've managed to turn your compulsions into something productive. But we're cut from the same cloth. That's why you can't stand me. Cristina: Oh. Time to go. Jesse: But I'm not done. Cristina: Uh, yes you are, sir. George: How many do you have to do? Jesse: 96. George: Let him finish. Cristina: Fine. I'll see you in the OR. (Ollie, Gretchen and a group of people are in her room. Richard walks by the window. ) Ollie: Oh, there's Richard. (Gretchen exits the room) Gretchen: Hey. Ollie says you should come in. She says you need a meeting. Richard: Not now. Not here. Gretchen: Yeah. Except she said to tell you not to protect your anonymity over your sobriety. (Richard follows Gretchen into the room, he closes the door behind him) All: God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Amen. Richard: Amen. (Denny is in the hallway prepped for surgery. Izzie walks up to him.) Izzie: Hey. How you feeling? Denny: Do me a favor? My will is inside my nightstand. Just make sure it gets in the right hands, ok? Izzie: Why are you talking about your will? Denny: We have to be realistic, Dr. Stevens. Izzie: Dr. Stevens? Denny: We got to be realistic. And if you can't, well, I can. Izzie (to Doctors): No, wait, um...can you wait just one minute? Denny, Denny, listen to me. You're not going to die. You can't go into surgery thinking your going to die. (Cristina enters the women's bathroom, George follows her.) Cristina: You want me to pee in front of you, is that what you want? George: You have it on you. Cristina: Oh, really? You want to go there? George: I wanna go there. Cristina: So, what are you going to do, Bambi? You gonna what, take it from me? George: Burke said to do whatever I have to do and I'm going to do whatever. (George starts grabbing Cristina) Cristina: George, it's not there. You're not getting it. Oh! No. No, you're not going to...No. (Callie exits a bathroom stall, looking confused.) Cristina: No. Oh! You've got my breast. That's my breast. That's my breast. My breast. (Callie starts washing her hands. They realize that someone is in the bathroom and stop fighting.) George: Hey, Dr. Torres. Callie: Dr. O'Malley, You're aware this is the women's restroom? George: Yes, ma'am. Callie: Good. (Callie leaves) Cristina: Dude. You called her ma'am. She's never going to sleep with you now. (George is in the hall and bumps into Izzie.) George: Oh, hey. Have you seen Burke? Izzie: He's on the phone with the laundry. They still can't find his scrub caps. George: That's what I got to tell him. Cristina won't give hers back. Unless I'm ready to ht a woman. And even though it's Cristina, I'm not ready to cross that line. Izzie: Wait! Wait, a moment. Cristina has one of Burke's scrub caps? George: She's holding it hostage. Why do you think I am stalking her? You... (Izzie runs off. She walks up behind Cristina, grabs her arm and pulls her into an office.) Cristina: Uh, ow. You're touching me. Izzie: George says you have Burke's scrub cap. Cristina: So? Izzie: Give it to him. Cristina: No. Izzie: Give it to him, Cristina. Cristina: What is with you? Izzie: He needs it to operate. Cristina: No, he doesn't. Izzie: That isn't your decision to make. Not when he's going in on Denny. Now, are you gonna give it to him or am I gonna physically take it from you? Cristina: Are you thrat me? Izzie: I swear to God, Cristina, I like you, I really do. But I grew up in a trailer park and I am not about kicking your pampered little Beverly Hills ass. And I do mean physically kicking your ass. (Cristina and Izzie walk up to Burke.) Cristina: You don't have to follow me. (Izzie gives her a look and walks away. Cristina hands the scrub cap to Burke.) Burke: Well, thank you. How long have you had this? It's one of my favorites. Cristina: You know, you don't need it. I keep that cap in my locker because every morning I look at it and I'm reminded of what I'm here for and what I want to be. A great surgeon. A surgeon who is decisive, and who executes, and who doesn't need a piece of clothing to give him an edge in surgery. You don't need it. Burke: I know. You're right. Cristina: I know I'm right. (Cristina walks away. Burke puts the scrub cap on and starts to head toward surgery. He passes George on the way.) Burke: Nicely done, O'Malley. Let's go scrub in. (Meredith is examining Nikki.) Nikki: How am I doing? Meredith: Nikki, is it possible you're misreading the signs? I mean, isn't two surgeons telling you that you need surgery a sign that you need surgery? Nikki: Did you call my boyfriend? Meredith: I did. Nikki: What'd he say? Meredith: He said he hasn't been your boyfriend in a while. Nikki: Did you tell him I got struck by lightning? (Scrub outside Denny's surgery. Alex is there and Izzie enters.) Izzie: What did you say to him? Alex: Who? Izzie: You know who. What the hell? Why does Denny think he's dying? Alex: Well, maybe because there's a good chance he is. Izzie: Just so we're clear. We're over, Alex. This is over. Alex: What? You're breaking up with me over a corpse? Izzie: No! No. I am breaking up with you because on your very best day...that corpse is twice the man you will ever be. You're not good enough for me, Alex. You're not good enough for anyone. (Burke enters and realizes something is going on.) Burke: You two, you're not scrubbing in. Whatever's going on with you, I don't need it in my OR. Alex: Fine. I'll watch from the gallery. Burke: No, no, you won't. You will take your energy as far away from my OR as you can get. (Alex leaves) Burke: Both of you. (Izzie leaves and George and Burke start scrubbing in.) (Jesse is in the OR getting ready for surgery.) Jesse: Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck. Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck. Find a penny, pick it up... Cristina: We're going to give you your anesthetic now. Jesse: all day long you'll have good luck. Find a penny, pick it up... Cristina: I'm sorry but we have to start. Jesse: Find a penny, pick it up... (Seattle scenes) (Derek is starting Jesse's surgery.) Derek: It's a beautiful afternoon to save lives, people. Lets have some fun. (Denny's OR, Burke and George get ready to start the surgery.) (Ollie's OR, Richard and Bailey get ready to start the surgery.) Richard: The incision begins along the left subcostal margin, across the right rectus, and extending well into the flank. (Meredith enters) Meredith: Dr. Bailey? It's Nikki Ratlin. Richard: I'll be all right, Bailey. Go. (Bailey and Meredith enter Nikki's room) Bailey: She, uh...yeah, she's bleeding out. We need to get her to the OR now. Nikki: I don't want an operation. Meredith: Nikki, your boyfriend called. He said he doesn't want you to die. Nikki: Kevin called? Meredith: Yes. Will you let us operate? (She flatlines) Meredith: Nikki? Bailey: Oh, code blue. Come on. (Bailey pressed the code button and code team rushes in.) Bailey: Ok. Charge to 200. Doctor: 200. Bailey: Clear. (Izzie is standing in front of the OR board, breathing deeply.) (Richard is operating on Ollie.) Richard: You have the back row of sutures in place. Give me some...clear field. Doctor: Pressure's dropping. Richard: Hang another unit. I need the field clear. (Nikki's room) Bailey: Clear. Charge 300! Doctor: Charge. Bailey: Clear. (Derek and Cristina are operating on Jesse.) Derek: Gel foam. That clip should've done it. I don't know. There's something I'm missing. (Burke is operating on Denny) Doctor: He's losing pressure, Dr. Burke. Burke: I'm working as fast as I can. George: We're losing him. (Stairs near the OR board.) Female Intern: I heard they're dying left and right. Male Intern: See? Told you there'd be seven. Izzie: Who? Who died? Female Intern: Don't know. I bet it was that spleen chick. You hear she wouldn't let them operate. Male Intern: Ah, my money's on the chief's shunt. Alex: I have twenty says Burke's guy went down. Dude's a walking time bmb. Male Intern: Bet. (Meredith and Bailey walk up. Meredith erases Nikki from the OR board.) Bailey: That makes five. Izzie: You lost her? Meredith: Yeah. I heard there's a number six. Izzie: Do you know who else? Meredith: No. I'm going to inform the family. (Richard walks out to the waiting room where Gretchen and a group of people are waiting.) Richard: She made it through. (Gretchen hugs him) Gretchen: Thank you. Thank you so much. Man: Thank you. Richard: You're welcome. You're welcome. (Derek and Cristina leave the OR, Jesse didn't make it.) MVO: Superstition lies in the space between what we can control... (Izzie is standing in a room, tears streaking her face.) MVO: and what we can't. Denny: So, I wasn't one of the seven? Izzie: It's past midnight. There were only six. Denny: Then why are you crying? Izzie: I'm not crying. Denny: You are too. Izzie: Oh, damn it. I cannot fall for a patient. Denny: Oh. Ok. Good luck with that. (Izzie smiles then kisses Denny.) MVO: Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have good luck. (George enters the locker room, where all the interns are getting ready to go home. He scoffs when he sees Meredith.) Alex: O'Malley, you are a sad excuse for a man. George: Excuse me? Alex: I know you heard me. You're like a whiny little girl. Meredith: Alex. Alex: You know why he's not speaking to you? Because he's not over you. Man, you got laid, it went badly. A man would move on. But you? You mope around this place like a dog that likes to get kicked. You make me sick, and if it wouldn't get me thrown out of the program, I'd smash your pathetic little face right into that locker. MVO: No one wants to pass up a chance for good luck. But does saying it 33 times really help? (Cristina is leaving the hospital.) MVO: Is anyone really listening? (Burke runs to catch up with her.) Burke: Hey. So if you feel that strongly about O'Malley, I'll ask him to leave tonight. Cristina: No, no, don't. Burke: I thought you wanted him out. Cristina: I do. But...not tonight. (Burke pulls the scrub cap out of his pocket.) Burke: Scrub cap. Cristina: Oh. Thank you. Burke: You're welcome. MVO: And if no one's listening, why do we bother doing those strange things at all? (Callie is walking in the ER and runs into George.) George: Hi. I didn't call. I should have called. I just... (Callie walks away. George takes out his phone and calls her.) George: Hi. This is George O'Malley calling. You gave me your phone number. I know I should have called sooner, but I'm calling now. And I just want to know...maybe you want to go out with me sometime? Because...I...love to watch you set bones. And I...oh, I...rarely spend...that much time in a women's restroom. And I really like you. (Callie smiles at him)So...is that a yes? MVO: We rely on superstitions because we're smart enough to know we don't have all the answers. (Addison walks up to Meredith with two cups of coffee) Addison: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Addison: I'm sorry to hear about your patient. Meredith: Thank you, Addison. MVO: And that life works in mysterious ways. (She gives one cup to Meredith and then walks to where Derek is standing and hands him the other cup.) Addison: Here you go, babe. Derek: Thank you. Addison: Hmm. Ready? (He hands the cup back.) Derek: Yeah. Here you go. Thank you. (Derek and Meredith share a glance and then Derek walks away.) MVO: Don't diss the juju...from wherever it comes. (Meredith takes a sip of the coffee and throws the rest away.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x21 - Superstition"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x22: The Name of the Game Original Airdate: 4/02/2006 Written by: Blythe Robe Directed by: Seith Mann (Joe's Bar) MVO: A good basketball game can have us all on the edge of our seats. Games are all about the glory, the pain and the play-by-play. (Meredith is sitting at the bar knitting, Derek is watching from afar.) MVO: And then there are the more solitary games. Joe (To Derek): Dude, is she knitting? MVO: The games we each play all by ourselves. (Derek walks up) Derek: You know, as a friend, I got to tell you, you look a little weird. Meredith: I am making a sweater. Joe: You're knitting. In a bar. You can't knit in a bar. You're scaring the customers. Derek: Come on, have a drink. Meredith: I can't have a drink. I'm celibate. Joe: You mean sober? She means sober. Meredith: No. Celibate. I'm practicing celibacy, and drinking does not go well with celibacy, because it makes everything and everyone seem kind of prn. And then my head gets all cloudy and then the next thing you know, I'm naked. And my point is, I'm celibate, and knitting is good for surgical dexterity, so I'm making a sweater. Derek: You, celibate? I just don't buy it. Meredith: No more men. (Addison walks up) Addison: No more men? Really? You? And I'm asking because we are friends. Meredith: Every guy I meet turns out to be married. Derek: Ooh. Ouch. Meredith: Sorry. Or Mark. Addison: Ok, I'm gonna go over there now. Meredith: Sorry. (Addison walks away) Meredith: Or remember the horrible thing I did? Remember George? Derek: You're making a sweater. Meredith: I am making a sweater. MVO: The social games, the mind games, we use them to pass the time. To make life more interesting. To distract us from what's really going on. (Izzie is sitting in Denny's room, knitting) Izzie: He's just not George anymore. He's broken George. First he chops off his hair. Then he starts hanging out with this Callie. That is not a name. Callie. Who is she anyway? I'm his best friend. Not that he talks to me anymore. Denny: Triple word score. 69 points. Woman, I'm beating the pants off you. Pay attention. What the hell are you doing? Izzie: I'm knitting a sweater. Actually, Meredith, that's my friend, the friend that broke George, she is knitting a sweater. She's not really knitting the sweater, because she cannot knit. But I want her to think she is knitting a sweater because she and I took a celibacy vow, so she's replacing sex with knitting, and so I'm knitting pieces of Meredith's sweater so I can switch them out with hers so she can really believe she's knitting because if anybody needs to be celibate, it's Meredith, because she broke George. You know? Denny: You took a vow of celibacy? Izzie: Yes. Denny: How am I supposed to get in your pants if you took a vow of celibacy? Izzie: That is a very inappropriate thing to say to your doctor. Denny: You know what's inappropriate? Promising sexual favors to a patient in order to get him to live and then backing out. Izzie: Denny Duquette! I so never ever promised... Denny: In my head, you did. In my head, you delivered. Izzie: Well... Denny: Don't worry. You weren't very good. Izzie: Ok. You know what? I was being nice. I was letting you win. Because you're "Mr. Sick Needs a New Organ Guy." But just for that comment, I'm going to kick your ass. Yeah, I'm going to...You put down "mount," Denny? MVO: There are those of us who love to play games. Any game. (Cristina, Burke, George and Callie are playing a game at Cristina and Burke's apartment.) MVO: And there are those of us who love to play...a little too much. George: Ok, uh, disastrous FEMA director. No. Callie: Oh, uh. Oh. George: Um, poo is? Callie: Brown. Poo is brown! Micheal Brown! George: Yes! Cristina: Time! Time! George and Callie: Whoo! Whoo! George: Yeah, thank you. Burke: Impressive, O'Malley. George: Thanks. Burke: "Poo is"? Callie: Apparently, we think alike. Cristina: Wow, can't believe you're proud of that. Callie: Hey, are you supposed to, um, open the papers ahead of time? George: Hey! Cristina: It's called strategy. Burke: Cristina, it's a game. Cristina: I know that. Burke: Well, you just seem a little intense and we're just trying to have some fun. Cristina: I'm having fun. Lets do this. Ok. George: Are you ready? Cristina: Mm-hmm. George: Go. Cristina: Blond ambition tour. (Burke says nothing) Blond ambition tour. Callie: Oh! Cristina: Vogue. (Burke says nothing) Oh, are you kidding? Ok, she's blonde, she's blonde! She's ambitious. With the...she's ambitious! And with the tour! And the vogueing! And the...Honey, ok, look at me! (To George) Ok...Shut up! Cones! Cones! Blond ambition, boob cones, and, uh, vogueing, honey, vogueing. Sean Penn! Sean Penn! George: Time! (Cristina looks frustrated) Zero points for Madonna. Burke: Oh! Madonna. Right. (Gallery, Cristina is pacing and Meredith and Izzie are knitting.) Cristina: Who doesn't know Madonna? Izzie: (Coughing) Sore loser. Cristina: I am not a sore loser. You know, and so what if I am? See, the whole point of games is that there's a winner. A first place. You want a second best surgeon operating on you? No, you want the very best. And second best is mediocre. And to settle for mediocrity is...is frankly, you know, a sign of self-loathing and substandard work ethics. I've gotta get George out of my apartment. Meredith: You know, you could sleep with him and then right in the middle start crying. It's painful and humiliating and unbelievably cruel, but apparently it works. Izzie: Would you just keep knitting? Kick him out so that he can come back home to us. Cristina: No, I can't kick him out. You know, he's Burke's puppy. It's gotta be Burke's idea. I just gotta figure out a way to make him do it. (OR where Burke is operating) Burke: Got a lot of metastatic disease here. How do we proceed? Alex: Definitely excise the endopronchial mets for symptomatic palliation. Burke: You've been doing your homework, Karev. Alex: Lot of late nights. Burke: Look at this. The mets have adhered to her chest wall. Alex: Dude, she's toast. Burke: Don't you think that's a little insensitive, Dr. Karev? Alex: She can't hear me. Burke: You don't know that. Bedside manner is part of the job, Karev. Late nights won't get you anywhere. You have to figure that out. (Derek walks up to Addison in the hall) Derek: Good morning. Addison: You going into surgery or coming out? Derek: Going in. I had to push back. Doc's sick. Addison: Sick? What are his symptoms? Derek: Polydipsia, lethargy, and vomiting. Addison: Any sign of fever or dehydration? Derek: It's unclear. I was considering running a course of IV antibiotics and a saline drip. Addison: Seriously? Derek: No, Addison. He's a dog. I dropped him off at the vet. They're gonna run some tests and observe him overnight. Meredith will check on him later. Addison: I gotta run, I got a transfer in from Mercy West. Will you wait for me to go home? Derek: Yeah. (Cristina is in a class) Teacher: Today we'll be covering... (Cristina raises her hand) Teacher: Yes? Cristina: Cristina Yang. First year, surgical intern. I'm just wondering if we're going to be covering both intra and extracorporeal knots in today's seminar? Teacher: We'll be training in all aspects of laparascopic general surgery. Starting with basic instrumentation... (Richard sits down behind Cristina) Richard: Dr. Yang. Cristina: Chief. Teacher: ...including tissue approximation. The suggested time for... Cristina: You're taking the class? Richard: It's a good refresher course, should be fun. Cristina: Fun. Yeah. Teacher: Now, who would like to volunteer for our first...(Cristina immediately raises her hand.) Dr. Yang. (George is in Molly Thompson's room.) George: Molly Thompson, 22 years old, 32 weeks pregnant. Transferred here from Mercy West when an ultrasound diagnosed the baby with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Addison: Hello, Molly. I'm Dr. Addison Shepherd. Molly: You're supposed to be the best. Susan: And not to put any pressure on you, or anything, but this is my baby carrying my grandchild so I really hope that you are. The best, I mean. Molly: Mom, you're kind of thrat the doctor. Don't thrat the doctor. It doesn't help. Susan: Sorry. My husband tells me I have to try not to be such a mother lion because Molly's a grown woman and has her own life and everything, but...roar. Addison: It's ok. I can take it. I am the best. Molly: You can fix this, though? Right? Addison: We'll insert a scope into your uterus and then inflate a little balloon in the baby's airway, which should help stimulate the lungs to grow. It's not going to be easy on either of you. But I do have a strong record with this surgery. (Addison and George start to leave) Addison: Make sure you get her to the MRI and get me the results as soon as you can. George: I will. (There is a man standing outside the door of Molly's room.) George: Sir? Can I help you find something? Man: Uh...is there a Dr. Meredith Grey working today? George: Yes. Man: She's here in the hospital, right now? George: I can have someone page her for you if you want me to. Man: No. No. Thanks. George: Wait! Excuse me, sir. Are you...What's your name? Man: Thatcher. George: You're... Thatcher: Grey. Yeah. George: You're Meredith's father. Thatcher: Yeah. George: Are you sure you don't want me to page her for you? Thatcher: No. I'm sorry. It's complicated. (Molly's mother comes out of the room) Susan: Thatcher, honey? We're right here. Thatcher: Oh. Oh. There you are, Susan. Susan: Did you tell him? I roared a little. Couldn't help it. Thatcher: Oh. Oh, well, I knew you would. Uh... George: I'm sorry, I'm Dr. O'Malley. I'm, uh... Thatcher: Uh, well, excuse us. Uh...check on our daughter. (Bailey is standing in front of the OR board, Derek walks up.) Derek: Uh, Dr. Bailey! You have an extra intern? Bailey: I'm available. Derek: No, no, no, no. I said intern. Bailey: Shepherd, look at the board. Derek: Ok. What am I looking at? Bailey: My name isn't up there. It wasn't up there yesterday and it won't be tomorrow. Derek: What'd you do piss of the Chief? Bailey: Yeah. I pissed off the Chief. I went and had a baby. I gave birth. I created a human life. I'm a surgeon. We don't do that. He's mommy tracking me. Derek: He's just going easy on you. Bailey: No, I change diapers, I clean spit up, I sing the ABC's. I'm covered in mommy. But that does not mean I will be mommy tracked. Derek: You're freaking out. Bailey: I just need a surgery. I need a surgery, now. So for today, I'm your intern. I have not gn to freak out. Derek: All right. Come on. (Izzie and Meredith are standing at a nurse's station) Izzie: Cristina told me that George had a date with Ortho chick. Games night. She didn't even take him home afterwards. She hinted that she wanted to and then she said she couldn't. That's weird, right? Meredith: George made it perfectly clear that I'm not in his life anymore. Izzie: Think Ortho chick is hiding something? She could be hiding something. (Callie walks up) Callie: Stevens. Hold this. (Throws a tool at Izzie) George mentioned you're not big on ortho. Grey? Take the osteotome and the mallet. (Hands tools to Meredith) Follow me. (Seattle Scenes) (Beatrice Carvers room, Alex and Burke are there) Alex: Ms. Carver, unfortunately, we found that the cancer has metastasized to your chest wall. We took out a small tumor obstructing your airway which will help with your breathing buy...it's not a cure. Beatrice: So this is the end of the line. That's what you're saying? This is it? I die now? Burke: Beatrice... Beatrice: I want you to go back in and I want you to cut out everything that you can. As much as you can. I want as much time as you can give me, you understand? Burke: Unfortunately, any additional surgery... Beatrice: Excuse me. (A young lady, Amelia enters the room) Daughter: Mom, I'm not eating any of that crap in the cafeteria. I mean, we're gonna have to order in Thai food or something because I'm starving and the food here blows. Beatrice: I'll have the nurse bring a menu by and we can have a picnic in bed. Amelia: God, mom, how many doctors do you have? Beatrice: They were just leaving. (She flips on the television and Burke and Alex leave.) (Class with Cristina and Richard) Teacher: In five to ten years, cutting, as we know it, will be virtually obsolete. Very nice, Dr. Yang. Cristina: Thank you, sir. Teacher: A little less tension there, Chief. Watch your grip. There you go. Richard: (To Cristina) I wasn't copying you. Cristina: Of course not, sir. (Loudly) Done! I'm done! I totally finished first. I'm done. (Izzie, Meredith and Callie are working on a patient) Izzie: So, Dr. Torres... Callie: Hold it steady, Grey. Izzie: Did you always know you wanted to specialize in orthopedics? Callie: Did you always know you wanted to model? Izzie: Oh, ok. Callie: Grey, I mean it. Watch your grip. Izzie: And your husband? Is he a doctor too? Callie: What are you trying to ask me, Dr. Stevens? My history? My marital status? My deep dark little secrets? Izzie: I'm George's best friend. Callie: Oh, I see. Well, it's just funny because from what I understand, as his best friend, you haven't been the best matchmaker in the past. (Izzie is walking down a set of stairs, George is standing on the landing.) Izzie: Hi. George: Hey. Izzie: Your hair's growing out, which is nice. I still think you should cut it. I could cut it for you, if we still lived together. Or we could just hang out and talk, about stuff. Like your new friend, Callie. She's, uh, she's very, um...You know, if you like her, I will like her. Eventually. George: I can't escape her. Izzie: What? George: All I want to do is forget her. All I want to do is just escape her and...you know, I can't. Izzie: You want to escape Callie? Thank God, because she is like a total freak and I'm starting to get really worried about you. (She looks at George who is just standing there) Not Callie. Sorry. Oops. Who? Or, uh...oh! Meredith again. George: Let me tell you something. The minute I tell what I'm about to tell you, this officially becomes your problem. Not mine. Izzie: Ok. George: Meredith has a sister. (Derek and Bailey are in surgery) Derek: How we doing? Doctor: Turning the skull flap. Patient's sedated. Derek: Very nice. Nicely done. Bailey: He's a kid. Derek: Yes. Bailey: I just didn't think it would be a kid. A tumor that size...What happens now? Derek: Now we wake him up. Bailey: We're doing awake brain surgery on him. Derek: Yes. Thank you. Andrew? A little more. Andrew? Can you hear me? Hey, want to count for me? Andrew: One... Derek: Good. Keep going. Andrew: Two. Three. Derek: The tumor is located near the language center of the brain. It's always important that we don't damage it. Andrew? I need you to keep talking. Can you do that? Can you talk to me? Andrew: I'll...I'll try. Derek: Great. Now what grade are you in? Andrew: Um...seventh. Derek: You into sports? Andrew: Not really? Derek: How about baseball? Andrew: Um...baseball's a sport. Derek: Right. Ok. What about, uh, girls? Do you have any girlfriends? Andrew: No. Bailey: Um...you probably don't have tome for girlfriends, right, Andrew? Probably too busy, right? Andrew: Yes, ma'am. Bailey: What are you busy doing? Andrew: Getting ready for the National Spelling Bee. I won the greater regionals last month. Bailey: Oh, well, in that case, you need to spell some words for us. Uh, can you do that? Andrew: Sure. Bailey: Good. Uh... Derek: You usually provide the word, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: I don't hear you coming up with one. Uh, lets see. Oh, right! Um, "acetaminophen." Andrew: Acetaminophen. Origin of the word? Bailey: Heck if I know. (Addison and George pass in the hall.) Addison: Do you have Molly's MRI results? George: No, I haven't. Not yet. Addison: What the hall have you been doing then? George: I was just going... Addison: When I assign you to a case of mine I expect you to give it your full and undivided attention. Give me one good reason why I shouldn't take you off this case. George: Molly Thompson's maiden name is Grey. Her father is Thatcher Grey. Thatcher Grey is also Meredith's father. Which means that, Molly and Meredith are sisters, but I don't think Meredith even knows Molly exists. That... I don't care. I don't, except I'm on this case and apparently God hates me. Addison: Ok. George: Ok, thanks. (Alex and Burke enter Beatrice's room) Beatrice: I want all this out now. I'm getting out of the hospital. Burke: Oh, we can't, Beatrice. You just had major surgery... Beatrice: Tomorrow is my daughter's birthday. Apparently, it's the last one I get to celebrate. I'm not spending it in here. Burke: Ok. I'm so sorry. But if we remove this tube, your lung will collapse. I'm sure you don't want to spend your daughter's birthday this way. Beatrice: I'm a quick healer. I'm breathing better since the surgery. Burke: That is because we removed some of the tumor opened up your airway. That doesn't mean that you are well. All right? If you try to leave, you're at risk of infection or hemorrhage. Alex: Your kid doesn't even know you have cancer. You really want to risk dropping dad on the street outside the hospital? (Alex and Burke leave the room) Burke: Dr. Karev. So you thought...scaring her back in the bed was the way to go? Alex: It worked, didn't it? She's lying to her kid. Burke: She's frightened. She's in shock. It is not your job or your place to take a tone like that with a patient. Not ever. Are we understood? Alex: Yes, sir. (Izzie, Cristina and George are having lunch in the outdoor cafeteria) Izzie: So what are the sister and the father like? Cristina: Like? They're like people Meredith is related to and never met. George: They're nice. Izzie: Can you imagine? A sister, a whole family you know nothing about. You think she's going to freak out? George: It's not my responsibility to care. Cristina: Heads up. Heads up. (Richard walks up and sits down at their table.) George: Hey, chief. Seems I'm a little rusty on my bead transfer and rope pass. Dr. Yang here, has been kicking my ass all day. Izzie: Oh, I can't imagine, Chief. Richard: No, really, she has. Of course, spend and precision aren't the most important surgical skills, Dr. Yang. The basics are the key. You need a solid foundation before anything else. Ok, um...We'll, I'll see you back at the lab. Enjoy your lunch. George: You too. Izzie: Have a nice day, sir. (Richard leaves) Cristina: Ok, I really am kicking the Chief's ass. (Meredith walks up and sits down and George leaves) Izzie: George. George: Not my responsibility. See you guys. Cristina: So who's going to be the... Meredith: It's ok. I can accept rejection. I've got my knitting. Cristina: Mer... Meredith: The weird thing is, I thought I just saw my father. Izzie: Ok. That's good. That's so good. Cristina: Hmm. Did you meet your sister too? (Andrew's OR) Andrew: "Appoggiatura" won last year. Year before that? Akshay Buddiga. He fainted, then got up and spelled the word "alopecoid." Kid's a major legend. Derek: All right. Now it's my turn. "Fibromyalgia." Bailey: Fibromyalgia? Derek: Yeah, what's wrong with fibromyalgia? Bailey: Andrew won the regionals. He's going to D.C. He's probably insulted by fibromyalgia. Andrew: Fibromyalgia. Derek: Suction. Andrew: F-I-B-R-O-M-Y-A-L-G-I-A. Fibromyalgia. She's right. That was kind of easy. Derek: Ok. You want me to bring on the heat? I'll bring on the heat. "Omphalocele." Andrew: Omphalocele. Derek: Mm-hmm. More suction in there. Andrew: (Slurring) Omphalocele. Derek: Ok. Bailey: Andrew? What's happening? Derek: Mark that. We've ht the language center. We have to pull back. Bailey: Andrew? Andrew? Oh, Andrew. Andrew. Uh, spell it again for me. Derek: Give me the probe. Bailey: Dr. Shepherd's working on it. I don't want you to be scared. I want you to wait. Wait, I want you to hold on. Derek: Mark that as well, please. Ok, try now. Bailey: Ok. All right, Andrew, spell "omphalocele" one more time for me. Andrew: Omphalocele. Derek: Mark that, please. Andrew: O-M-P-H-A-L-O-C-E-L-E. Omphalocele. Bailey: That's it. That's perfect. (Sniffling) Andrew: Dr. Bailey, are you crying? Bailey: Ooh! I got something in my eye. Derek: You're doing great, Andrew. We're almost done. Bailey: Stop looking at me like that. It's my hormones. Derek: Mm-hmm. Bailey: I'm still a surgeon. I'm just a surgeon with an excess of estrogen. Deal with it. Andrew, can you spell "estrogen"? Andrew: E-S-T-R-O-G-E-N. Derek: Here's a word for you. "Delusional." Andrew: Delusional. (Cristina and Richard's class. Cristina and Richard are preparing to battle!) Teacher: Today's final assignment will show how well you can take the skills you have learned and apply them to a single operation. You may begin. (Addison is in Molly's room. Meredith walks by peeking in.) Addison: So I'm gonna do the surgery with a small scope. It will be minimally invasive. And then you should be able to do the rest of your recovery from home. Molly: Thank you. Yeah, Ok. (Addison sees Meredith in the hall) Addison: Uh...(Nods to Meredith to enter) Uh, Molly, this is Dr...uh...This is Meredith. She's going to be...continuing your prep work and taking your vitals, ok? Molly: Ok. Meredith: Hi. Molly: Hey. Meredith: Uh, do you mind if I, um...? Molly: No, it's fine. Meredith: Ok. Molly: I'm getting used to being poked and prodded. Meredith: That's, uh, a pretty ring. Molly: Oh, thanks. It was my grandma's and then my mom's. You think I'm too young to be married. Meredith: No, I... Molly: That's ok. Everybody thinks I'm too young. If I saw me, id think I was too young. Meredith: Um, how...how old are you? Molly: 22. Eric's 23. And he's in the army and he was getting shipped out. And...I just love him so much, you know? Anyway, I proposed. Meredith: Oh. And your, uh, parents? They approve? Molly: Oh. Oh, my parents are amazing. You know how dads can be. Mine's pretty overprotective. But...you know, at my wedding, when he gave me away, my dad cried, which was...I had never seen my dad cry before. But I think it was also kind of weird for him 'cause I'm his little girl. You know, I'm the youngest, and my sister's like nowhere near ready for marriage. But...it was good crying. Like...he was proud of me, you know? I'm sorry. I'm just nervous, so I'm talking. Meredith: No, that's ok. So you have a sister? Molly: Yeah, Lexie. She's in medical school. Harvard. She's the smart one. You should see how my dad is about her. He's like crazy proud. Meredith: Well, I'm going to go. Molly: Meredith? Meredith: Hmm? Molly: Do you think my baby's going to be ok? Meredith: Oh. Well, I hope so. Molly: Me too. Meredith: Ok. (Meredith enters a room, slamming the door behind her. Callie and Izzie are in there.) Meredith: I need some bones to break. Callie: What? Meredith: Some bones to break. Something to smash. Can you help me with that, please? Callie: Um...you can clean up this cast crap if you want. (Meredith starts pounding on the cast with a hammer.) Callie: Is she freaking out? Izzie: No. Uh-uh. She's fine. Meredith: Oh. Izzie: She's great. So, George...he's really, really your type, huh? Callie: You don't see him. Either of you. You don't see him. He's just...He's just George to you. He's...He's just O'Malley. Your roommate. Izzie: You don't have to get all up... Callie: He makes my world stop. George O'Malley is sweet and kind, and smart and strong. (Meredith is still pounding away on the cast) Callie: And he makes my world stop. So you shut up about him. (To Meredith) Don't forget to clean it up. When you're done smashing. (Callie leaves) Izzie: Holy crap! George is her McDreamy. Meredith: Oh. (Cristina and Richard's class. Cristina looks over and Richard has his eyes closed.) Richard: I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. Teacher: Flawless, Chief Webber. Absolutely flawless. Richard; They call me Dr. Webber. That's why I'm the chief. That's why I'm the chief. (Singing) That's why I'm the chief. Chief. (Beatrice's room. Alex is in there and her daughter enters) Amelia: So when is my mom getting out of here? Beatrice: I'm sorry, honey, but it's going to be a few days. Can you call aunt Sue? See if she can pick you up? Amelia: So I get to spend my birthday hanging out with Aunt Sue? Perfect. Beatrice: I promise you, next year. Next year well do something really special for your birthday. You name it. It's done. I promise. Amelia: Whatever. (The daughter leaves the room) Alex: So, this whole lying thing? This is working out for you? Beatrice: Excuse me? Alex: You're going to die. And soon. You get that, right? There's no rosy picture to paint here. Beatrice: You're not a mother. You don't know what it's like to hold your newborn baby in your arms, and smell her head and know that your only job in the world is to protect her. Alex: You think you're protecting her? Beatrice: I am protecting her. Alex: I guess you can call it what you want. But you should just know, you're leaving behind a kid that will probably hate you the rest of her life. (Burke clears his throat, he has been listening at the door.) Burke: Dr. Karev... Alex: No. I'm talking this time. Burke: Excuse me? Alex: I tell the truth. It's what I do. It doesn't make me a bad doctor. Everyone walks around this place lying. We tell the patient that's dying that there is hope when there is no hope. Maybe I'm a pig. Maybe I'm an ass. Maybe I'm a vermin like everybody says. But I tell them the truth. It's the one thing that I've got going for me. And you don't get to take that away from me and call it a lesson, sir. (Meredith walks past Susan Grey, she doesn't know who she is.) Susan: I saw a picture once from a long time ago, you look just like her. Your mother. You look a lot like my girls. Especially Molly. You were talking to her? Meredith: I didn't say anything about anything. Susan: Oh, she knows about you. Or she knows that her father was married before and had another daughter. Has another daughter. Meredith: No, had is right. Susan: Your father thinks about you. He thinks about you a lot. He just...Your mother...Your mother...She broke him. Meredith: Excuse me. I...I have to work. (Thatcher is standing in front of the OR board, Richard walks up. It takes him a moment to realize who Thatcher is.) Thatcher: I spent years studying this board. Holding a crying baby, trying to get an idea when my wife would get out of surgery. Appy takes about an hour. Anything with the word "cardio" and I know not to plan on seeing her at all that day. Richard: Thatcher. Are you aware of what's going on with Ellis? Thatcher: You have no right. No right to talk to me about Ellis. Richard: I'm sorry. But I was trying to talk to you about Meredith. Thatcher, Ellis has early onset Alzheimer's. It's advanced. And it's hard on Meredith, as you can imagine. And I thought you'd want to know. (Bailey is in Andrew's room, his mother is sleeping in a chair.) Bailey: Hey, Andrew. It's Dr. Bailey. Remember me? I was in surgery with you. Andrew: I'm...I'm sorry. Bailey: No, don't worry. Don't worry. A lot of times kids who are awake during surgery don't remember afterwards. Anyway, your operation went really well. We got all that tumor out of there and you're going to be just fine. Andrew: I...I...thanks. Bailey: Ok. You know, I have a son, too. And I'm going home right now to tell him that today I met the best speller in Seattle. (George is walking through the hall, he sees Meredith duck into a nearby room. Thatcher walks up to him.) Thatcher: Oh, hey. Dr. O'Malley. George: Hi. Thatcher: I was looking for you. You're...Before when I was asking about Meredith, you know her. You're her friend? George: I used to be her roommate. Thatcher: Oh, wow. You know her really well. George: I know her pretty well. Thatcher: Um, she...she came to see me a couple of weeks ago. And... George: A couple of weeks ago? Thatcher: Yeah. I...I didn't know what to say to her. She looks so much...so much like her mother. Ellis was cold. I mean, I was a coward. I was...I...I left. But her mother would never let me know her and...now I don't know how to know her. Uh... George: Well, Meredith is anything but cold. She smiles. Not that often, but when she does, uh...you know, because she's been going through a lot...but...it's...it's like you feel warm. She's kind. I mean, she can be a little selfish. She can be...she's flawed, but she's kind. She cares about people. And, uh, she cares about...about her patients. I think she's going to be a brilliant surgeon. You know, around here, she's known as the one to b*at. So, I...I mean, I guess she has that in common with her mom, but...I think the rest of her...I think, uh, I think the rest of that she gets from you. Thatcher: Hmm. Do...do you know...where she is? George: I think she left already. But I could tell her you were here, if you want me to? Thatcher: Yeah. Ok. Thank you. George: Ok. Thatcher: Ok. George: Ok, bye. Thatcher: Yeah. (Thatcher and George walk in different directions, Meredith peeks out from her hiding spot.) Meredith: Thank you, George. (Molly and baby's surgery. Addison is there.) Addison: The hernia is causing the baby's abdominal... (Gallery, Meredith is knitting and Derek enters.) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hey, still knitting? Meredith: Oh, yeah. I'm getting so good at it. Derek: Hmm. I did a craniotomy on a kid today while he was awake. Meredith: I met a sister I never knew I had. And I saw my father which was, uh...I don't know what it was. Derek: Hmm. You ok? Meredith: I have my knitting. (Beatrice is alone in a room with her daughter.) Beatrice: Study hard, keep your grades up. But starting next year you're going to want to take two AP classes a semester if you want to get into a decent college. Amelia: Mom, this is really morbid. Beatrice: And your Aunt Sue is kind of lazy when it comes to personal hygiene so you may have to be the one to remind her when it's time to get your eyebrows waxed or get your hair cut, but eventually she'll get the routine down. Amelia: Can we not have this conversation? Beatrice: Oh, this might sound random, but wear underwear with pantyhose. I know it might feel a little bulky, but honestly, it's a little slutty not to and also that's how you get yeast infections. (Alex starts to enter the room but stops) Amelia: Mom, this is totally gross. Beatrice: And marry a kind man. One who's nice to his mother. Now, if he lives with his mother, you run the opposite way. Amelia: Mom, I'm not getting married any time soon. Beatrice: You will someday. And when that day comes, just have one glass of champagne and then you drink water for the rest of the night because there's nothing tackier then a drunken bride. Amelia: Mom, I don't want to...Why are you telling me all this? Beatrice: Honey, I've been sick for a long time and the doctors just don't think that I'm going to get better. Amelia: No. Beatrice: Amelia. Listen to me. Look at me. Amelia. This is important. This one is...is really the important one. Someday you're going to have a baby. And you're going to feel overwhelmed by this little life that you're responsible for. And you're going to think...worry that everything you do is wrong. And that's normal. You're going to obsess about what to feed it and where to send it to school and whether it should take violin or piano. But I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. It doesn't matter. Whether your kid is a concert pianist or a math genius, it just doesn't matter because at the end of the day, all that matters is if your kid is happy. So you're going to feel sad...for a little while. And that's ok. That's...that's fine. But don't feel sad forever. Ok? You can promise me that? You promise me that you won't feel sad for too long? Amelia: I promise. Beatrice: Ok. Thank you. You make me feel much better. MVO: Life is not a spectator sport. (Thatcher walks into Molly's room) MVO: Win, lose or draw...the game is in progress...whether we want it to be or not. (Izzie is in Denny's room and holds up a sweater.) Izzie: Ta-dah! Denny: You made me a sweater. Today. In one day, you made me a sweater? Izzie: Yeah, well, you know. I just had some time, so... Denny: That vow of celibacy must really be something. Izzie: You know what? Just accept your gift and say thank you. Denny: Does this mean I don't get any sexual favors? Sweater instead of sex? Izzie: Smell it. Go on, smell it. Denny: It smells like Izzie. Izzie: Yeah, I wore it for three hours. So that is the closest you're going to be getting to this body, mister. You wanna play some Scrabble or you too tired? Denny: Scrabble, please. Izzie: Ok. Denny: Just show me one boob. (Cristina is waiting near the elevator, Richard emerges.) Cristina: Sir. Richard: Nice work today, Yang. Hopefully your fellow interns will be as adept on the scope as you. Cristina: Thank you, sir, but, um, you weren't even looking. You actually had your eyes closed. So, how...I was watching you and...and you didn't even need the...You didn't even need the screen to help you guide the needle holder. Richard: Old school, Yang. Muscle memory. You want to win, always go back to the basics. (Derek and George are playing chess at their apartment.) Burke: It's my move? (Cristina walks out of her room, naked. George quickly covers his eyes.) Burke: Cristina, what the hell are you doing? Cristina: Oh. Um...being comfortable in my apartment. George: I didn't see anything! Dude, I did not see anything! Burke: Get out. Cristina: (Smiling) Basics. MVO: So go ahead: argue with the refs, change the rules...cheat a little...take a break...and tend to your wounds. (George is sitting in the abandoned hallway, dialing his phone.) MVO: But play. (George hears the follow ring of a phone and follows the sound.) (George walks into a room in the hospital basement where Callie is lying on a bed.) Callie: (Into phone) Hello? MVO: Play. George: Hi. Callie: Um, hey. Um... George: You live here? Callie: Yeah. I'm not...crazy or anything. I just spend so much time here in the hospital. It's just...it's easier. So...I'm not...I'm not crazy or anything. George: Do you know how to cut hair? (Callie starts cutting his hair.) MVO: Play hard. Play fast. Play loose and free. (George grabs her arm and pulls her down to kiss her.) (Meredith is at the vet, still knitting.) MVO: Play as if there's no tomorrow. Lola: (On phone) Dandridge's Veterinary Clinic. We certainly do. Yes. Thank you. (To Meredith) You getting the hang of it? Meredith: Not really. Lola: You give up men? Meredith: No. Yes. You know, I don't actually need to see the vet. I really just wanted to sit with Doc. I just want to spend some time with my dog. (A men enters) Finn: Hi. I'm Finn Dandridge. I'm Doc's vet. And you are Dr. Grey. Doc's other owner. We finally meet. Hello. MVO: Ok, so it's not whether you win or lose...it's how you play the game. Right?	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x22 - The Name of the Game"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x23: Blues for Sister Someone Original Airdate: 4/30/2006 Written by: Elizabeth Klaviter Directed by: Jeffrey Melman (Hospital basement) MVO: The key to being a successful intern is what we give up. Sleep, friends, a normal life. We sacrifice it all for that one amazing moment. That moment when you can legally call yourself a surgeon. (Callie and George come out from underneath the blankets, obviously just having finished having sex.) Callie: Thank you. Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you. (Derek and Addison's trailer. They are lying in bed looking disgusted.) Addison: Thanks. MVO: There are days that make the sacrifices seem worthwhile. Derek (Laughing): Oh, my God. You're thanking my for the most boring sex ever? Addison: I didn't know what else to say. I mean, you did your best. Derek: Oh, great. Thanks. You too. It's really nice work. Addison: We used to be really good at this, didn't we? Derek: We're going to do this until we get it right. (They butt heads) Ow! Jeez! (The phone rings.) Addison: Perfect. Ow. Derek: That's the hospital. Hello? Hi. No, no, no, no, no. It's about Doc. Yeah. No, I'm here. Yeah, I can pick him up this morning. Sure. Bye. No. Come on. (Addison takes the phone from Derek.) Addison: Dr. Dandridge. Dr. Dandridge. I...We're gonna have to call you back. We're trying really hard to have some decent sex here. (Screen switches to show Meredith on the phone.) Addison: Come on. What's so funny? (Meredith is at the vet, she hangs up without saying anything.) MVO: And then there are the days where everything feels like a sacrifice. (Finn enters the room with Doc.) Finn: Everything ok? Meredith: Yeah. Everything's great. Hey, Doc. You look good. He looks good. Finn: It may just be a virus. But I'd like to wait until we get the blood tests and the x-ray results back before I say anything for sure. Meredith: So he can go home today? Cause Derek says he can pick him up. Finn: He can go home. Meredith: You hear that, Doc? You can go home. Finn: So you and Derek, uh...you're together? Meredith: Uh...Uh, Derek and I are, um, just friends. He's married and I'm knitting a sweater. And, uh, well, I guess I'm rambling, which I tend to do a lot of lately, and I wish somebody would just tell me to shut up. But my point is...yeah, we're...uh...He's married and I'm knitting a sweater. Finn: So you're single? Meredith: Single. Finn: I ask because I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me. Meredith: Out. With you. Finn: On a date. Tonight. Meredith: A date. Tonight. Finn: And you're repeating everything I say so that you can buy yourself some time and figure out how, a way to let me down easy. It's ok. I get it. Meredith: No. No. I...I...um...you know, you're very...it's just that if I were, you would...not dating. MVO: And then there are the sacrifices that you can't even figure out why you're making. (Richard, Burke and Bailey are standing in front of the OR board.) Bailey: Another day, and once again I don't see my name on the board. Chief, any reason my name isn't on the board? (Richard pats her on the back) Richard: Slow day. (Richard walks away.) Bailey: He just patted me on the back. Tell me, when did I become a person who gets patted on the back? Burke: You think he's mommy tracking you? Bailey: What...what have you heard? Burke: How about you handle Denny Duquette for me today? Bailey: Absolutely. Thank you, Dr. Burke. (Bailey walks away and Cristina walks up.) Cristina: I brought you a coffee. Burke: Oh, thanks. Uh, very thoughtful. Cristina: What? Burke: Nothing. I'm just dragging a little. I only did two miles this morning. O'Malley and I were up to six, we pushed each other. Cristina: Oh, you're missing George. Burke: No. No, of course not. Cristina: Drink your coffee. Burke: No, that's all right. Actually, I'm waiting on... (George walks up) George: Cappuccino. Burke: Hey, O'Malley. George: Big news. Eugene Foote is here. He's having problems with his pacemaker. Burke: Eugene Foote is here? What? In this hospital? George: Uh-huh. Cristina: Who's Eugene Foote? George: Genius violinist? Burke's hero? Burke flew down to San Francisco last year, to put in his pacemaker. Burke has like 40 of his albums. Burke: No. Um, 42. George: Actually, 43. Because you just got the greatest hits. You know, the one with the DVD. Burke: Oh! Right. You want in on Foote? George: Yes. But, uh, I'm on neuro today with Dr. Shepherd. Burke: Ok. George: Eugene... (George runs off) Cristina: I want in. Hello. I want in. Burke: Hmm? Oh. Sure. Yeah, right. Cristina: Burke? Um, I laid on top of you naked last night. So why don't you wax nostalgic about that? (Meredith and Alex are standing at the nurse's station.) Meredith: Obviously, I can't go out with him, right? Alex: Do I look like a chick to you? Do I look like I care about yeast cream or tingling feelings? I mean, he's not in jail or on drugs or keeping body parts in his basement. You want to do him, do him. (Cristina walks up) Meredith: Not do him. Date him. I'm not doing anybody. I'm knitting. Cristina: I need Eugene Foote's chart. Oh! Who are we talking about? Meredith: It's weird, right? I mean, he's Derek's vet. He's Doc's vet. He's my vet. He's McVet. It's weird to date him, right? Cristina: Wait, did you say vet? Meredith: Mm-hmm. Cristina: Like animals? Oh, you can't date a vet. He's not even a real doctor. (Addison walks up.) Addison: Damn it! Sex. Hot sex. Need that! Ha-ha, very funny. Meredith: Mustn't have gone so well this morning. Cristina: What? Meredith: Just run if she looks at you. Addison: I need an intern. Now. Meredith: I'm with Bailey. Cristina: I'm with Burke. Addison: Karev. Alex: I don't do vagina. Not as a doctor anyway. Addison: Oh. Back talk. You know what? You just bought yourself a case. (Meredith and Bailey enter Denny's room) Bailey: How you feeling this morning, Denny. Denny: Great. Be even greater if you'd get me off this machine. Bailey: Denny, you know I would, but then your heart would stop beating, and Dr. Burke would yell at me and that'd make for a very bad day for both of us. Meredith: Is he a candidate for the portable LVAD? Denny: Now, see? That's what I'm talking about. Half the size, twice the fun. (Izzie enters) Bailey: Ah, you've been doing your research, huh? Denny: I have. Izzie: I've already told him, he's not ready for it yet. Bailey: Dr. Stevens, didn't I assign you to neuro this morning? Izzie: Yeah. I was...I'm on my way. But could you tell him about the complications? Meredith: You'd be risking air embolus, v-fib. Izzie: Yeah and the tubing could kink inside of your body, in which case, we'd have to rush you to emergency surgery. Bailey: Dr. Stevens, unless Mr. Duquette's heart has suddenly grown a brain, you are currently not doing your job. Izzie: I'm going. (To Denny) Just don't be stupid, ok? Denny: You're not the boss of me today, woman. (Eugene Foote's room) Eugene: I want you to take it out. Burke: Take it out? But Mr. Foote, your heart function has improved exponentially since we put the pacemaker in. The setting is working well. Eugene: You know my music, Dr. Burke. Burke: Very well, sir. Changed my life. Eugene: Well, your contraption has changed my heartbeat. It changed my rhythm. I can't play. And that's a sacrifice I am unwilling to make. Cristina: But you'd be willing to sacrifice your life for your music? Eugene: They're one and the same. Burke: Before we do anything drastic, just let me try one more setting on the pacemaker. Listen, one more setting, Mr. Foote. Please. Eugene: Ok, sure. (Addison enters the room of Mr. and Mrs. Ward.) Addison: Hello, Wards. Kids: Hi. Addison: We're just waiting on your labs. How you feeling? Rose: I'm feeling large. Large and cow-like. Child: Cow? Rose: Mommy is a cow who needs a quiet talk with the doctor. Mr. Ward: Hey, guys. Who wants ice cream? Kids: Me! Me! (Alex enters the room as Mr. Ward and the kids leave) Alex: CBC and CHEM-7 look fine. Addison: Rose? Rose: I'm sorry. I'm so tired. Addison: Oh, Rose, well, you know, six kids, 38 weeks pregnant. A saint would be tired. Rose: Well...I'm no saint. This baby, Joseph...Dr. Shepherd, I need him to be my last. And I really seem to be the most fertile woman on the planet. Addison: Well, if you're interested in alternative forms of birth control... Rose: No. What I mean is...today, during the C-section, I need you to tie my tubes. And I need you to do it without my husband ever knowing. Addison: Rose, you're an adult. He's your husband, not your legal guardian. Telling him would be entirely up to you. Rose: No, if you charged my insurance he would see it. Any bill you sent, he would see it. I've been saving for this and I can pay you privately. Addison: So you're saying you want me to do the surgery and leave no record of it? Alex: Mrs. Ward, if you're being abused, there are people you can talk to. Rose: Oh, Chris is...He's the opposite of abusive. Alex: So, if we pull up your medical records we're not gonna find a bunch of old broken bones or... Rose: If you pull up my medical records, you'll find three natural child births, three C-sections, two hospital stays for exhaustion, and one for dehydration because I was so busy chasing my kids around I forgot to take a sip of water for three days. I think God understands what I'm going through. And I think God will forgive me. But Chris...For him, religion isn't like a buffet table where you get to choose what you want to take and leave the rest. And the Pope says no to birth control, so...I need your help. Alex: You don't need our help. Your husband's not abusing you. And you don't get to lie to him and blame it on the Pope. (Outside Rose's room) Addison: Dr. Karev. Alex: No offense, but I have no interest in obstetrics or gynecology, Dr. Shepherd. So if you want to throw me off the case, feel free. Addison: Dr. Karev, I may be a board certified OB/GYN but I also have fellowships in maternal fetal medicine and medical genetics and I'm one of the foremost neonatal surgeons in this country. When you can top that, you can mouth off. Until then, you will do your job and you will do it right, which at this point in time means you keep your mouth shut unless I give you permission to open it. Understood? Understood? Alex: Oh, are you giving me permission now? (Derek, George and Izzie enter Ms. Graber's room.) Derek: Good morning, Ms. Graber. Ms. Graber: Oh, really? "Good morning?" You haven't let me sleep in three nights. Derek: Hmm. Ms. Graber: And this ridiculous hat is destroying my self esteem and I still haven't had a seizure. But, ok, sure, we'll go with "Good morning" if it makes you feel better about yourself. Derek: Ms. Graber is here for brain mapping. Dr. Stevens? Izzie: Brain mapping, um it's where you locate the area of the brain where the seizures originate and surgically remove it with minimal damage to the surrounding tissue. Derek: Excellent. Ms. Graber: Excellent, except for the fact that it's not working, and I'm losing billable hours. Unless any of you are looking to get out of a bad marriage? (Derek, George and Izzie have looks on their faces.) George and Izzie: No. Ms. Graber: Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Yes. No. I'm fine, thank you. Ms. Graber: Really? Derek: Yes. Ms. Graber: Cause I'm an excellent divorce attorney. Derek: I'm sure you are. Ms. Graber: And there was a look. Between these two. Derek: A look? Izzie: No. No look. Ms. Graber: What is it? You married young and now you have nothing in common? Oh, no, don't tell me. I know. The conversation is still good but the sex has gone to pot. (Outside Ms. Graber's room.) Izzie: Make her seize? How do we make someone have a seizure? Derek: Do your research. Get creative. George: Well, if all the normal methods have failed, then...what are we supposed to do? Derek: Use a strobe light. Get her drunk. Hang her from the ceiling upside down and ht with a Wiffle Ball bat for all I care. Ok? Just make her seize. Because until she seizes, I don't know where to operate. And if I don't know where to operate, I can't get this woman out of my life. And this woman is not how I like to start my mornings. (George and Izzie are sitting a computers, researching.) Izzie: I'm just curious, George. Curious George. Get it? Never mind. All I'm asking is where you live. George: Listen to this, there's an old school arcade game that's been know to induce seizures if you reach level 53. Izzie: Our divorce lawyer is so not playing an arcade game for 53 levels. Oh, George, by the way, um, where do you live? George: I'm busy doctoring, Dr. Stevens. No time for chitchat. (Callie enters) Callie: Morning, Dr. O'Malley. George: Uh...morning, Dr. Torres. Callie: Hmm. So, guess what. (They begin talking and laughing in hushed tones, while Izzie looks on.) Izzie: Dr. O'Malley, how's all the doctoring going? (Eugene is playing his violin, Burke is watching on) Eugene: You tell me. Burke: It's an honor to hear you play. Eugene: Too good a man to lie. I'll read your mind: his timing is off. His rhythm is off. This man has no business calling himself Eugene Foote. Burke: You understand, sir, that in the months since the initial surgery, scar tissue has formed around the pacemaker. Removing it is not nearly as simple as it sounds. Eugene: I picked up the violin at six years old. It was in my grandfather's attic. I didn't even know what it was. But I remember picking it up. That moment. I remember putting the bow to the strings and pulling. Just that. Just that screechy little chirp. And that was it. I was hooked. You remember a moment like that in your life? I know this surgery could kll me. I also know you're the best, which makes you my best sht of survival. I'd like you to be the one to operate, Dr. Burke. But if you won't, I'll find someone who will. (Burke and Cristina are walking down stairs in the hospital.) Burke: He's right. Cristina: What? He can't play? Burke: He can't play like Eugene Foote. Cristina: Ok. So, uh, surgery? Burke: He says he will go somewhere else if I refuse. I might let him. Cristina: Why? Oh, you can't let him go somewhere else. What are you...? Ok, what if it were you? What if you couldn't be a surgeon anymore? Or...Or you could still be one, but...but not a great one. Just average. He can get his surgery somewhere else. But that surgeon might be average. (Meredith and Bailey are in Denny's room.) Meredith: EKG, ECHO, and nuclear all within normal limits. Bailey: Denny, in that case, I see no reason why you can't be up walking. Denny: Music to my ears, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Good. So, you have any questions? Denny: No. It's... Bailey: We can put it off. No harm in waiting a few weeks if you have questions. If you're worried. Denny: I've got 20 tubes coming out of my body, one of which goes directly into my you-know-what. At some point I'd like to use that you-know-what for something besides peeing into a bag. Like, for instance, peeing into a toilet. It's just...Izzie gave me medical advice. You're giving me different advice. It just so happens that yours is the advice I want to hear. Meredith: Well, Dr. Bailey outranks Dr. Stevens. So, it's safe to say Dr. Bailey's advice is the one to follow. (Meredith gives Denny a "shut up" look.) Bailey: That's not what he's worried about, Dr. Grey. He's worried that Dr. Stevens might get her ego bruised and her feelings hurt, am I right? Denny: (glances at Meredith) No, no. Definitely no. Bailey: Because, it would concern me if you were making medical decisions based on how our Dr. Stevens might feel about it. Denny: Well, in that case, I say we do this thing. Screw that dizzy blonde doctor girl. Bailey: That's not helping, Denny. Denny: No? Meredith and Bailey: No. (Outside Denny's room) Bailey: What's going on between Stevens and Denny? Is it a crush? Is it an innocent flirtation? Or is Stevens actually crossing the line? Meredith: I know she likes him. I can't imagine Izzie would do that. Bailey: Uh-huh. I couldn't imagine you and Yang would be stupid enough to fall for your attendings, but I was wrong about that, wasn't I? Meredith: I'm knitting these days. Plus, I'm thinking about accepting a date with a veterinarian. Bailey: Grey. Do you actually believe I care? Meredith: No. Bailey: Good. Maybe you're not so stupid after all. (George and Izzie are in Ms. Graber's room.) Ms. Graber: Explain to me one more time exactly what this is supposed to do. George: Having the TV this close makes the flickering and flashing bigger and more intense, which can cause seizures. Ms. Graber: Oh. Normally I don't have time to watch TV, but this week I've discovered Oprah. You know, she's famous in my business for never marrying that boyfriend of hers. Wise, wise woman. (George and Izzie sit on a couch in the room while Ms. Graber watches the TV.) Izzie: So, first you won't tell me where you live and now I'm on the outside of your inside jokes, with Callie. When did I end up on the outside, George? George: You're not on the outside. Izzie: Ok, now you're lying. To my face. George: You're being paranoid. Ms. Graber: Well, I'm not seizing. But I am having an acid flashback. Does that count? (Addison and Alex are in Rose Wade's room.) Addison: Rose...Seven kids...it's a lot. Are you sure that Chris isn't feeling the same way? When we were first married, we were so broke that I went on the pill, for a while. And Chris stopped taking Communion. When he does that, he thinks he's... Alex: Thinks he's going to hell. He thinks you're both going to hell. Rose: The reason we haven't had a baby in four years is because we abstained for three. Now can you imagine not being able to make love to your husband? Addison: Um...the, uh...pill... Rose: I can't hide the pill. He would find out. Alex: If he found out, what? I mean, he won't divorce you. He doesn't believe in that. Rose: Do you see the way he's looking at me, right now? Addison: Dr. Karev was just leaving. Rose: No, no, no. Just...just look at him for a minute. That look he has on his face, that's how my husband would look at me if he knew about any of this. And I can't have my husband look at me like that. And I can't have any more babies. (Izzie, Cristina and Meredith are sitting around a nurse's station.) Izzie: For the record? I am on your side today. George sucks. Cristina: Hmm. Burke doesn't think so. He's his new best friend. Izzie: I wonder if Burke knows where he lives. How's Denny doing? Bailey's not caving in on the LVAD thing, is she? Meredith: About that...I thought Alex was kidding when he said you dumped him for a heart patient. Did you really dump him for a heart patient? Izzie: Of course not. Meredith: Because Denny's a patient. We can't fall for our patients. Cristina: You're falling for a vet. Meredith: I'm considering the possibility of maybe having a date with a vet. Cristina: That's all I'm saying. Meredith: My point is, Bailey's on the warpath about you and Denny. So just be careful. (OR, Rose's baby has just been delivered.) Addison: How's the sponge count, Dr. Karev? Alex: There all accounted for, but I see a bleeder here. Addison: It's small. Get the Bovie and cauterize it. Alex: I got it. Addison: That's good. Uh, there's a little bleeding near the tube here. Can you hand me the Bovie, Dr. Karev? Alex: I don't see any abnormal bleeding. Addison: Are you the surgeon here? Alex: No. Addison: Then give me the Bovie. Give me the Bovie, Dr. Karev. (Rose's room, Addison and Alex are there) Addison: Hey there, Joseph. Welcome to the world. Rose, before we bring your family in to see you, I wanted to let you know that there was a complication with your surgery. We had some unexpected bleeding that caused damage to both fallopian tubes. Rose: So you're saying...? Addison: You won't be able to have any more children. Rose: Thank you, Dr. Shepherd. Addison: As I said, it was...a complication. Rose: I understand. (Alex and Addison leave the room.) Alex: A complication? That's what you're calling it? Addison: That's what it was. Alex: Really? Cause in that case, it's one of the most bizarre obstetric complications in history. Addison: She is our patient. Our obligation is to her and her only. (Meredith enters the elevator where Derek is.) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Well, hey. Meredith: Uh, you picked up Doc? Derek: Yeah. He's home. Meredith: He seems to be doing much better. Derek: He seems to be doing good. Meredith: (Laughing) I'm not laughing at you. Derek: No. Meredith: No, it's just, you know, bad sex isn't really something that wives want announced to the dirty ex-mistress. Derek: You're not the dirty ex-mistress. You're her friend. She's your friend. I'm your friend. We're all...friends. Meredith: But you didn't tell her. Derek: No. How's your day going? Meredith: Great. Derek: Good. Meredith: The vet asked me if we... Derek: What? What did he ask you? Meredith: If we were together. Derek: Uh-huh. Meredith: And I set him straight. (The elevator opens) Derek: Good day, Meredith. Meredith: You too, Derek. (Ms. Graber's room.) Ms. Graber: I'm not drinking another sht of espresso. I can't. George: You can. You're the best divorce attorney in Seattle. Izzie: The best. George: You can kick that espresso sht's ass. Izzie: Kick it. George: Kick it. Both: Kick it, kick! Yeah! Ms. Graber: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Ok, good. So, caffeine's for seizures. What's the doughnuts for? Izzie: They are to absorb some of the coffee so it doesn't burn a hole through your stomach. Ms. Graber: Good. Ok, good idea. Mm. Oh. Do you know how long it has been since I have had a doughnut? I really, really, really, really, really like doughnuts. George: Well then, why don't you eat them? Ms. Graber: Got to stay on top of my game. No time for exercise. No carbs. No sugar. Can't have a sugar crash in court. You know, stupid court. Court is stupid because I love doughnuts. (Derek enters) Izzie: You're making really good progress. (Bailey and Meredith are in Denny's room. Richard enters.) Denny: Hey there, Chief. You here for my big moment? Richard: Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, Denny. (He starts looking over Bailey's shoulder.) Bailey: Is there something I can do for you, Chief? Richard: His EKG? Bailey: Normal. As well as his ECHO and nuclear study. Richard: Mm-hmm. His perfusion? Bailey: He's ready, Chief. Richard: Well, looking good. Carry on. Bailey: Thank you, sir. (Ms. Graber's room, she is playing a video game.) Ms. Graber: Die! Die! Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah! Next level. I'm at the next level. God, this is exhilarating! George: Good. Keep going. Keep going. You only have 12 more levels before you reach prime seizure potential. Izzie: This is fun. Yeah, right? You know? Like fun that we had at home back when you used to tell me things. Like where you live? George: Don't start that again. Izzie: I'm not starting anything, I'm just saying, there's fun to be had. All the time, with me, your best friend. George: It's not like we're in high school. Izzie: George, don't do the whispering under your breath thing. If you've got something to say, say it. George: Yeah, last time you gave me that advice it went really well. Izzie: You're seriously pissed at me because of what happened between you and Meredith? George: No. Yeah. (Eugene's surgery, violin music is playing.) Burke: Oh. He recorded this at the Hollywood Bowl a couple years ago. Cristina: It's nice. Burke: It's not nice. It's brilliant. (Mr. Ward walks up to Alex at the nurse's station.) Mr. Ward: Excuse me. You were one of my wife's doctors, weren't you? Rose Ward? Alex: Yes, I was. Mr. Ward: She just told me there was a complication with her C-section. (George and Izzie are in Ms. Graber's room, arguing.) Izzie: I told you to tell her how you feel, I did not tell you to jump into bed with her. George: Whatever you told me... Ms. Graber: Adultery. George: Why did you send me in there? Was it to humiliate me? Izzie: No... George: I mean, if you knew she didn't love me, why? What kind of friend does that? (Alex and Mr. Ward at the nurse's station.) Mr. Ward: It's just...it was shocking. Someone says there's a complication and everything changes. (Denny's room, he is sitting up, wheezing.) Denny: I...can't...breathe. Richard: Are all those batteries... Bailey: Yes, they're charged. I checked them myself. Meredith: He's having runs of V-tach. Richard: Could be an air embolism. Bailey: I got it. (Eugene's surgery.) Burke: Damn it. We got to tamponade. Nurse: BP's not registering. Burke: Keep transfusing PRBCs. He has a full ventricular perforation. Hand me a 2-0 prolene. Cristina. Replace my hand with yours. Yes. And hold on for dear life. (George and Izzie in Ms. Graber's room, still arguing.) Izzie: You didn't want to hear it. George: Yes, I... Ms. Graber: Oh, some denial. I can work with that. Izzie: You wanted to keep on loving her, George. You did not want to hear it. (Denny's room) Meredith: Should we intubate? Richard: We'll call respiratory to do it. (Mr. Ward and Alex) Mr. Ward: Rose says it's a blessing. It's God's will. Maybe it is. Alex: Maybe it is. A blessing, I mean. This complication. (Eugene's OR) Cristina: His heart's not moving at all. Burke: Keep compressing as I was doing. Doctor: There's no signs of life. Blood pressure is nonexistent. (Denny's room) Richard: Ok, the tubing could be kinked. We need to move him to the OR. Bailey: Sir, I got this. Richard: Well, it doesn't look like you've got this. Bailey: I've got this. (Ms. Graber's room) Izzie: Oh, my God! You knew the risks! You knew she was in love with someone else... Ms. Graber: I'm getting an aura. Izzie: No! I am not saying that what she did wasn't wrong. I am just saying that you need to take a tiny piece of responsibilty... (Ms. Graber starts seizing) George: She's seizing. Go page, Shepherd. (Alex and Mr. Ward) Alex: This complication might be God's way of helping you put your seven kids through college. Mr. Ward: What are you saying? Alex: I'm saying get a lawyer. (Alex walks away.) (Denny starts breathing normally) (Eugene flatlines) Burke: Time of death: 18:32. (Meredith is in Denny's room checking on him) Meredith: Everything looks good, Denny. Denny: Well, you gotta thank Dr. Bailey for me. I mean, I already thanked her once, but this here deserves a double scoop. Meredith: I know I don't know you very well. Denny: You want to talk to me about Izzie? Meredith: Yeah. Denny: Because you disapprove? Meredith: No. This comes from nothing resembling a high horse. High horses want nothing to do with me. You know, this thing with you and Izzie, it's...there are strict rules about doctors dating patients. Denny: You know Izzie pretty well, right? You think if I went to her and I said, "Hey, you know, this is going to be really bad for your career." "You probably shouldn't come round and see me anymore," you think that'll have any effect at all? The thing is, I was healthy my whole life until I wasn't. And for the last year, I've had a lot of time to lay around in bed and think about my life. And the things that I remember best? Well, those are the things that I wasn't supposed to do and I did them anyway. So the thing is, Meredith...life is too damn short to be following these rules. (Richard and Bailey are in the hallway) Bailey: May I ask what motive you had for undermining my authority in front of my patient and intern? Richard: I'm not punishing you, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: But you are. I mean, I had a baby. And so you are. Richard: Yes, you had a baby. And now you're sleep deprived. Bailey: Every doctor in this hospital is sleep deprived. Richard: You just came back from maternity leave, and I'm not convinced you're back on your game. This is not a punishment or a reflection on how highly I value you. It's just the way it is. (Nurse walks up and points to Mr. Ward.) Nurse: I'm sorry to interrupt, Chief. But that man over there is asking to talk to you. Richard: Excuse me. (Vet's office, Finn is there when Meredith enters.) Meredith: Hey. Finn: I thought you were knitting a sweater. Meredith: I am. But I'm also dating. You. If you still want to. I should've called, you know. I was going to call... Finn: No, no. Uh...don't call. Never call. Always show up. Meredith: Ok. Finn: Ok. But I can't tonight. I've got an errand I have to run. Meredith: I run errands. (They enter a sab) Finn: This shouldn't take too long. And we can grab dinner right after. Meredith: After? Finn: After she gives birth. Meredith: We're birthing a horse? Finn: Yeah. Meredith: That was your errand? You're birthing a horse? Finn: Yeah. I guess I could've mentioned it before. But, you know, I didn't want to scare you back to your knitting. She's getting anxious. You can wait back here. Meredith: Back here? Finn: If you want, I mean. It gets a little messy. Meredith: Are you kidding? I want to birth a horse. (Addison walks up to the nurse's station where Richard is standing.) Addison: Richard, we have to talk about Alex Karev. I know he's talented, but his attitude, in my opinion, has reached an unacceptable low. Richard: Addison. You've got a bigger problem today than Alex Karev. Mr. Ward has been speaking with our attorney regarding his wife's surgery. Now I read your chart. I read the nurse's notes. Now, can you explain to me what kind of complication from a C-section leads to the severing of both fallopian tubes? (Derek is in Ms. Graber's room) Derek: Well, the bad news is...you had a grand mal seizure. The good news is we mapped it, so now we can operate. Mrs. Graber: No. I've decided against surgery, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: I'm sorry. Mrs. Graber. No offense. The risks of craniotomy...when you described them, they're not terribly appealing. Derek: Yes, there are risks. But you have to weigh those risks with the uh, detrimental effect your seizure disorder has on your life. Ms. Graber: Unless my life is having a detrimental effect on my seizure disorder. It's like with you and your wife: is the bad sex your biggest problem or are all the bigger problems causing the bad sex? Derek: I'm, uh...I'm not going to answer that. Ms. Graber: All right, my point is, I had more fun today that I can remember. I don't have any friend. I don't have any fun. I only have work. Work and seizures. And it's no coincidence that when the work stopped, the seizures stopped. Until these two started arguing. Derek: All right, I'm gonna talk to them about that. Ms. Graber: No, you don't get it. Watching people fight...oh. It's been my whole life for 15 years. So, I'm changing my life. Look and if that doesn't work, I'll come back here and let you cut open my brain, ok? Derek: All right. Fair enough. (sab, baby foal stands up.) Finn: It's pretty good, huh? Meredith: Yeah, it's pretty good. (Addison enters Rose Ward's room) Addison: How're you feeling Rose: A little sore. Addison: Oh, that's to be expected. Rose: I'm sorry I told Chris about the complication. I just...I just thought he should know that Joseph would be our last. So he could savor it. I didn't know he was going to do this. Addison: Rose. I need you to tell him that you asked me to tie your tubes. Rose: For you, it's just insurance. And you don't even have to pay. For me, it's my marriage. It's my family. Addison: It's my career, Rose. It's my reputation. Rose: You're the best. People come from all over the country to see you. That won't change. I can't tell him. Dr. Shepherd...I'm so sorry because I am so grateful to you. But I can't tell him. (Burke is in a scrub room, he is listening to Eugene's music) (Finn's apartment) Finn: Is it coming off? Meredith: Not exactly. Finn: I'm sorry. Meredith: Oh, don't be. It was a great date. Finn: Technically it wasn't the date. It was the errand. Now...we could go up to my place. I could cook for you. Meredith: Go up to your place? Finn: Well, do you want to come up to my place? Meredith: Yeah. I mean, no. No, I don't. I...I do. But I don't. Finn: You don't know? Meredith: No, I do. I mean, I...I know. No, I don't. Finn: All right, well, here's the deal. Um...you have two options. You could come up to my place, take off all your clothes, shower off the goo, borrow one of my shirts, and I'll cook you dinner. That's door number one Door number two...you go home. I think you ought to take door one, because, you know. It involves you naked in my apartment. But, you know...that's just me. Meredith: I should point out that there's absolutely nothing you could say that would make me go upstairs with you. I'm kind of offended that you think that I would go upstairs with you. And you should know that I am celibate. So... Finn: Shut up. Meredith: I absolutely cannot have...sex with you. Finn: If you choose door number one, I absolutely will not have sex with you. Meredith: You won't? Finn: I promise I won't. I won't even try to kiss you. Meredith: Why not? Finn: Meredith. Meredith: What? Finn: Choose door number one. MVO: A wise man once said, "You can have anything in life, if you will sacrifice everything else for it." (Ms. Graber's room, she is packing to go home.) George: I hope it works. You changing your life. Ms. Graber: So do I. George: Ok. Ms. Graber: Hey, George. I don't know much but I do know fighting. And people who fight like you and Izzie...those people love each other. She misses her friend. MVO: What he meant is, nothing comes without a price. (Addison walks past Alex in a stairway.) Alex: The road to hell is paved with good intentions. MVO: So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you're willing to lose. Addison: Dr. Karev. You did such a good job today that I'm going to talk to Dr. Bailey and have you assigned to my service. Alex: What? For how long? Addison: For as long as I want. Your ass is mine until I say otherwise. Congratulations. Izzie is in Denny's room. He is standing at the doorway[/i]) Izzie: You got it. Denny: I did indeed. Izzie: And you're ok? Denny: Are you kidding me? I'm great. I mean look at this. Some nice sized batteries, colorful wires. It's what your best dressed LVAD patients are wearing these days, you know? Izzie: Really? Because it seems so last fall. (They hug) Izzie: You're tall. Denny: I know. (Bailey walks up and sees them hugging.) MVO: Too often, going after what feels good, means letting go of what you know is right. (Cristina sits down on the bed next to Burke) Cristina: You did everything you could. Burke: There was an interview that Eugene gave. I saved it. I taped it to my bathroom mirror. He said that he wasn't the most talented student at music school. But he said what he lacked in natural ability he made up for in discipline. He practiced. All the time. All the time, he practiced. I wasn't like you. I wasn't the most talented student in school. I wasn't the brightest. But I was the best. Cristina: You practiced. Burke: I practiced. MVO: And letting someone in means abandoning the walls you've spent a lifetime building. (Derek carries Doc into Finn's place.) Derek: I got home he was listless and hadn't eaten all day. Finn: Oh, no. Lets have a look. (Meredith walks down the stairs and sees Derek standing there. She has obviously just gotten out of the shower.) MVO: Of course the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming. Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hey. (Derek gives her a look) Meredith: Is he sick again? Derek: Yeah. (George enters Meredith's house with Callie right behind him) Izzie: George! Hey. George. Hey. Izzie: Oh, hi. Callie: Hey. George: So we spent the night at Callie's last night, so we figured we'd just spend the night here. Izzie: Um, ok. So, um...you're back then just...for tonight? George: Well, Callie's here for the night. I'm, uh...I don't know. It's my room, you know. I pay rent. Izzie: Welcome home. MVO: When we don't have time to come up with a strategy, to pick a side or measure the potential loss. (Derek enters the trailer where Addison is. Derek starts undressing.) Addison: You would not believe the day I had. I went out of my way to give a patient exactly what she wants, only to have it explode in my face. I mean, lawsuit, thrat, Richard's pissed. Don't even get me started about Alex Karev. Derek: Get in the shower. Addison: What? Derek: Get in the shower with me. Addison: Honey, it's a very small shower. Derek: You want to have hot sex? (He is naked and she starts taking her clothes off quickly.) Addison: Thank you. MVO: When that happens, when the battle chooses us, and not the other way around, that's when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear. (They enter the shower and can be seen pressing up against the glass.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x23 - Blues for Sister Someone"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x24: Damage Case Original Airdate: 5/7/2006 Written by: Mimi Schmir Directed by: Tony Goldwyn (Seattle Scenes) MVO: We all go through life like bulls in a china shop. (Finn's house, Meredith is watching him make breakfast.) MVO: A chip here, a crack there. Doing damage to ourselves. To other people. Meredith: So, uh, I don't cook. Finn: Nobody asked you to cook. Meredith: I know, I'm just saying that, you know, I don't cook, so you don't have to cook. I don't expect you to cook for me. Finn: Ok. You. Sit there. Sit down. I want you to drink this and try really hard to act like you aren't scary and damaged. Meredith: I'm not scary and damaged. Finn: Yeah, you are. Meredith: No. I'm not scary or damaged. Finn: Mm-hmm. All right. Why don't you tell me about your family? Meredith: Ok. Me not wanting to talk about my family does not make me scary or damaged. Finn: Ok. Tell me about the last guy you slept with. MVO: The problem is trying to figure out how to control the damage we have done. Or that's been done to us. (Bathroom at Meredith's house) Izzie: What did you say to him? Meredith: Nothing. I fled the scene. Izzie: You didn't tell him about George or Derek? Meredith: No. Izzie: Hmm. You like him. Meredith: I could like him. Izzie: Is the sex any good? Meredith: I don't know. Izzie: Four dates and two sleepovers at his place and no sex? Meredith: Not even a kiss good night. Izzie: Oh, I am proud. I am like a proud mama. Meredith: Shut up. (Callie enters the bathroom in only her underwear.) Callie: Morning. MVO: Sometimes the damage catches us by surprise. (She goes to the bathroom then leaves.) Meredith: Oh, my God. Did that just happen? Izzie: I'm having a seizure. I am clearly mid-seizure. I'm seizing. Meredith: Oh, my God. Izzie: She didn't even wash her hands. Meredith: Oh, my God. MVO: Sometimes we think we can fix the damage. (SGH, ER) Izzie: All I'm saying, George, is that if she needs to pee she could as least wear a bra. Or maybe wait until she's alone. And for the love of every sanitary, could she just wash her hands? She's a surgeon. George: You said yourself you guys were blocking the sink. I think you're exaggerating. Izzie: She peed. Naked peeing. Ask Meredith. Meredith? (They walk up to Cristina, Alex and Meredith who are sitting in the ambulance bay.) Izzie: That's right, I forgot, you're not talking to her. George: Oh! Izzie: If you were she would tell you that Callie crosses the line. So crossed the line. So freaking crossed. Alex: Oh. Were still pretending that you're not seeing a patient, right? Cristina: People, what's with all the evil misery? Huh? Live and let live. George: You're cheerful. Cristina: Oh, come on. Izzie: You are. How's that possible? Cristina: I scrubbed in on a four hour parasophageal hernia last night. Then I got laid. And now, three ambulances are coming in full of bloody broken car crash victims, all who need to be cut open. So, I'm cheery! I'm cheery! I'm cheery! MVO: And sometimes the damage is something we can't even see. Cristina: I'm cheerful! (Derek walks up) Cristina: Sorry, sir, I... Meredith: Hey. Derek: How's my dog? Meredith: Much better. Finn's running tests. Derek: Good. Meredith: Our dog. Derek: What? Meredith: Our dog. You said "my dog." He's our dog. Derek: Yeah, whatever. Meredith: Are you mad at me or something? Derek: Now's not the time. (Izzie is entering a trauma room with a Noah Reynolds) Izzie: 25-year-old restrained driver Noah Reynolds. Vitals sab. Chief complaint: right knee pain. Bailey: Curtain three. (Another gurney is being wheeled in) Melanie: Noah, you still alive. Noah: I'm still alive, baby! My wife's side took all of the impact. Her parents were in the other car. Some jerk slammed into them and then they slammed into us. Izzie: On three. One. Two. Three. (Cristina is with Melanie, Noah's wife.) Paramedic: 22-year-old pregnant restrained passenger T-boned on her side. Prolonged extrication in the field. BP 90 over 50. Pulse in the 80s. Bailey: Trauma room one. Melanie: Trauma? No, I'm fine. Really. You don't have to go to all that trouble, mercy no. I am fine. The air bags went off. If you could just check on my baby and the rest of my family. My husband. Noah? You saw Mama breathing, right? And Daddy? Where the hell's Daddy? Mama and Daddy are still alive, right? Noah: They're in the next ambulance right behind us. Melanie: They're still alive, right? Cristina: Please don't move, ma'am. Melanie: Mama and Daddy, I need to know. Cristina: Yeah, I'll ask someone about...Mama. Melanie: And Daddy. (George enters with two more gurneys, containing Jim and Millie.) George: Driver and front-seat passenger both early 50s, both restrained, both sab. The passenger has some leg and arm pain, the driver is complaining of chest pain. Millie: Dang it all to heck. Excuse my French, honey, but I need some whatever kind of horse pills you've got because this hurts like the dickens! (Jim, Millie, Noah and his wife are all yelling back and forth to each other.) (Melanie's room) Cristina: Uh, that would be Mama? Melanie: Mama! You ok? (Millie's room) Millie: I am in pain. (Jim's room, he is fighting doctors to get off the gurney) Jim: Get off. Get off! George: Sir, I need to clear your spine. Jim: My spine is fine and you can sew up my head later. Where's my girl? Melanie: Daddy? Jim: Millie? Noah: Jim? Millie: Mel? Melanie: Mama? Bailey: (To herself) The hillbilly picnic. (Jim runs into Melanie's room) Cristina: Could everybody shut up for a minute? I'm trying to find a fetal heartbeat, hold on. Melanie: Is the baby ok? Cristina: Hold on. The baby's heart rate is 152 and strong. It's...it's ok. Jim: They're both good. They're good. Millie: Thank the Lord. Thank the Lord they're all right. (Meredith enters with another gurney) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, another car crash victim. Millie: That's him! That's the guy who ht us. Jim: I'll kll him, I'm gonna get you. Richard: Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Jim: You son of a bitch. Millie: Big Jim, just hold your horses. He's hurt. He's already hurt. Jim: Good! Melanie: Daddy? Jim: Don't ask me to be neighborly! He slammed into us. Bailey: Trauma three. Page Ortho and Neuro. O'Malley, give her a hand. Marshall: What happened? Millie: Whoa, whoa, whoa. What do you think you are you doing, young man? Alex: I'm just trying to examine you. Millie: I don't think so. (whispers) I don't have any panties on. I do not know you well enough to let you see my good girl. Get me a lady doctor. Alex: I need a chick over here! (Trauma 3) Marshall: What happened? Meredith: Marshall Stone, surgical intern at Mercy West. Marshall: What happened? Derek: Page Ortho to look at his wrist and let CT know we're coming. George: Yes, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Marshall, I'm going to say three words to you, ok? And then I want you to repeat them back to Dr. Grey. Can you do that? Marshall: Ok. Derek: Ok. Bat, orange, car. You think you can remember that? Marshall: Mm-hmm. Derek: Good. Ok. Here. He has a closed head injury. Watch for vomiting, confusion and loss of consciousness, ok? Meredith: All right. Derek: Good. Meredith: Derek? Derek: Not now. Let me know when you get the CT report back. (Derek leaves) Meredith: Marshall,...can you remember those words? Marshall: What happened? (CT viewing room) George: And this is the father, Big Jim. I don't call him Big Jim. The family, they call him Big Jim. Alex: Oh, stupid hicks. George: Really? Being Southern makes you stupid? Do you know that he owns half of Alabama. Izzie: Yeah. And I bet he even washes his hands after he pees. George: That's uncalled for. Bailey: This is a place of business. Discharge the mother, discharge the father. George: Yes, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Karev, get the husband to the OR for surgery. (Addison enters) Addison: Dr. Karev, there you are. You're supposed to be up on OB/GYN rounding on my patients. Alex: Oh, yeah, I got paged. 911. Pregnant mom. Car accident. Very serious. Addison: Pity. I've got three surgeries on the board. I was gonna ask you to scrub in, but I guess you should stay by that pregnant lady's side all day. You see to it, Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Karev, go find your patient. Stevens, scrub in on Noah's patella fracture. Alex: The She-Shepherd just walks in here and pulls me off surgery? Bailey: You burn the She-Shepherd, she burns back. Go. (Melanie is getting ready for CT scan.) Melanie: The CT won't hurt the baby or nothing, right? Cristina: No, it won't hurt the baby...or nothing. Ok, on three. One, two, three, up. Melanie: I was having a shower today. A baby shower. That's why Mama and Daddy are in town. Because I'm having a baby. How nice is that? Cristina: Nice. Melanie: Isn't it? Cristina: Mm-hmm. (Alex enters) What are you doing here? Alex: I'm captain of the vagina squad. Cristina: Oh, this nice man is going to take care of you now and he really like to talk, so chat away. Melanie: It was nice meeting you. Alex: Not cool, Yang. Melanie: What does she mean? Captain? And what kind of squad are you on? (Marshall's room) George: Uh, you shouldn't be reading your own chart. Marshall: I want to find out what caused me to swerve my car into oncoming traffic and not be able to remember it. Hey, those people, the ones I ht, they're going to be ok, right? No serious complications? George: Uh, they're still checking them out. (George goes to leave and Izzie enters) Izzie: Do. Torres? Callie: Yeah? Izzie: I was told you're performing the Noah Reynolds surgery. Callie: Yes. Izzie: Well, I'm your intern. So, whenever you're ready. Callie: Ok, well, head up and prep the OR. I need to put on a splint. (Izzie leaves) George: Um...did you wash your hands? Callie: What? George: You washed your hands, right? Callie: Of course I washed my hands. George: No. No. Of course you did. Callie: Um, Marshall, this is going to hurt a little bit, ok? Marshall: My ETOH and tox screens were pristine, so I wasn't drinking or...under the influence. Ow. (Derek enters) Derek: Ok, we get the CT result back yet? Meredith: Not yet. Marshall: My GCS was 13. Why haven't I had a CT? Derek: Dr. Grey? Meredith: CT was backed up. And he's lucid now, so... Derek: So get it done! Now! (Cristina walks up to a nurse's station where Burke is) Cristina: Hey. Daisy Duke's case was boring me to tears. So, um, you got any good hearts that I can cut open? Or, you know, bad hearts that we can make good? (Burke walks away, Cristina follows him) Cristina: Burke? Use words. Burke: You fell asleep. Cristina: When? Burke: This morning. In the on-call room. Cristina: I fell asleep after we, you know... Burke: Not after. Not after. Cristina: Oh. Oh. I'm...sorry. I...I was really tired. Seriously. Seriously, my bad. I'm really sorry. Don't let this thrat your manhood. Burke: Oh, this is not...I am very confident in my manhood, thank you very much. Cristina: Well good, you should be, because I mean...I fell asleep because I had already finished. Twice. Burke: I hadn't finished. Cristina: I was tired. It's not like I did this on purpose. Burke: Oh, did you stay in the hospital last night on purpose? Because you weren't even on call. Cristina: It was a paraesopageal hernia. I had never seen one. You know what, I'm a surgeon first, just like you. Burke: No. No. Not just like me. I am a person first. (Izzie is walking down a hallway) Izzie: Someone page me? Denny? Nurse: He collapsed. Izzie: What happened? Denny: Too far, too fast. Izzie: What were you doing? Denny: Stairs. Real bright, huh? Izzie: Your LVAD battery is almost dad. Um, get him to his room, I'll get Dr. Burke. Nurse: Let's get him up now. Nice and easy on one, two, three. (Denny's room) Burke: Now, Denny, you knew that LVAD wasn't a cure. Denny: I want to go home. I want to go home yesterday. Burke: I know this is hard to hear, but that's just not an option at this point. Denny: Since when do you get to decide what's an option in my life and what isn't? My heart may be on your battery packs, but it's till my heart. It's my decision. It's my damn life. Burke: That's right. It is your life. And it is your life that is at stake. And it is your life that well end if you continue to push like you did today. Denny: You said the LVAD would make me better. Burke: I told you the LVAD would buy more time. And it will. If you respect it's limitations and your own. Denny: I want to go home. (Izzie and Burke leave the room) Izzie: What do we do? Burke: We put him on a tight leash. Tell the nurses to keep an eye on him. Make sure he doesn't take any more endurance hikes in the stairwell. Izzie: Yeah. But...Preston, what do we do? Burke: The damage to his body we can try to control, but the damage to his spirit...For a man like Denny to lie on this bed for years on end...That's not something we could really understand. And his feelings about it aren't something we should try to control. Give him room, Izzie. Just give him room to grieve. (CT scan viewing room) Cristina: You finally got Melanie to shut up? Alex: Finally. Thanks for that by the way. (Bailey enters) Bailey: How's she doing? CT Tech: Images coming up now. Cristina: Ooh, is that a teardrop fracture? Alex: No head bleed, though. That's good. Cristina: Look at her lungs. Alex: Is that her liver? Cristina: How is she alive? Bailey: Karev, page Shepherd, Burke, Montgomery-Shepherd, the Chief and every surgeon with an available hand and get an OR opened. Go! Melanie? Mel...Get me a stretcher. Let's pull her out of there now! Melanie? (Callie walks into the hall and runs into George) Callie: Hey, have you seen Izzie? She was supposed to prep an OR for Noah's surgery and she completely bailed. (George walks by without saying anything) Callie: What? George: Mr. and Mrs. Johnson? Jim: Dr. O'Malley. Millie: That little girl right there says she's going to fix Noah's leg all by herself. And she just gave him a big old sht for his pain. I really like her. George: Mr. and Mrs. Johnson? Big Jim? Millie: Is it Mel? George: Yes, ma'am, it is. Jim: What? What? George: When your daughter came into the OR, her body was over-pumping her bloodstream, with adrenaline, which kept her conscious and alert and, uh, pain-free. During the CT scan, she was lying still for an extended period of time and se her body relaxed. And the adrenaline stopped flowing, which allowed her to succumb to the full extent of her injuries, which...they're catastrophic. Millie: Excuse me? (Melanie's OR) Bailey: Bovie. Richard: More suction here. Clamp. Burke: Internal saw. Addison: Karev, sit down. Alex: I can't see. Addison: The only thing I want you to do is sit at that fetal monitor and watch that baby's heartbeat. Alex: So now I'm a baby-sitter? Bailey: Ok, retractor. Richard: Addison, we're ready for you. (Noah's room) George: We are going to do absolutely everything we can. (Melanie's OR) Addison: Uterus is protected. Baby's heartbeat? Alex: 146. Addison: Ok, baby's safe. You can proceed with the mother. Burke: Lungs are damaged pretty badly. Doctor: Pressure just bottomed out. Richard: Let's transfuse. Bailey: Four quadrant packing. Come on, people, get me some lap pads. Richard: Cross clamp the aorta. Burke: Clamp. Got it. Richard: There's too much bleeding, she'll never last. Shepherd? Derek: Damage control. Richard: Addison? Addison: If you want the baby to live, damage control. Richard: Burke? Burke: Damage control. Richard: Everyone knows the rules. We're gonna move as rapidly as possible. Don't worry about finishing repairs. For now we're on crisis management people, just get it done. Once she reaches the triangle, we stop. No exceptions. Alex: Why's he talking about triangle? What triangle? Cristina: Blood stops clotting, her muscles produce acid and her organs get cold. Alex: You're talking about the triangle of death? (Marshall and Meredith are waiting for CT) Marshall: A ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Meredith: What? Marshall: I scrubbed in on an abdominal aortic aneurysm. It was a 12 hour surgery. I had already worked 30 hours, but I didn't want to miss it. I fell asleep for...a second behind the wheel. I closed my eyes for a second at the red light. A second. It was only 12 hours. I'd done it before. Meredith: We've all done it before. Marshall: Dr. Grey? Meredith: Meredith. Marshall: Meredith. Marshall: Does this mean...Are we actually saying that, uh...today...this morning...because I stayed in the OR to save a life...I may have klled a pregnant woman? CT Tech: Dr. Grey? You ordered a CT on Marshall Stone? (Meredith stands up to talk to the Tech for a moment) Meredith: We're going to need a moment. CT Tech: I'm backed up here with five patients. Meredith: We need a moment. (Meredith turns around and Marshall is gone.) Meredith: Marshall? Marshall? (Denny's room) Denny: Izzie, please. Izzie: Come on, Denny, just... Denny: Izzie. Izzie: Smell. Smell. Chocolate. And not the crappy, processed, waxy kind, but the really good Swiss chocolate that you get at the gift shop that costs way too much money, but is totally worth it. Try it. And exhibit B. Tabloids. Good old fashioned trashy celebrity gossip rags. Denny: Damn it, Izzie, stop it! Just stop it! You think I'm feeling sorry for myself, right? Poor sad sack Denny just needs a little perspective. Izzie: You do need a little perspective. Denny: You have no idea what it is to lose what I have lost. Izzie: I know loss, Denny. Denny: No you don't! I'm a man. I'm a strong, virile horse of a man stuck in the body of some weak, sick bastard that I don't know, like, or recognize. Now if you knew what that feels like, you would have never convinced me to let a battery run my heart. If you knew what it feels like, Izzie...you would have let me go. (Melanie's OR) Doctor: Systolic's 82, folks. Not getting any better. Bailey: How's the spleen, Chief? Richard: Unsalvageable, I'm afraid. Addison: Karev! Alex: Frequent decels and loss of variability. Addison: The baby's fading. Doctor: PH is down 7.1. Core temp 93 degrees. Richard: Ok, we've reached the triangle, people. Hands out. Bailey: Still oozing. Richard: We're not trying for perfection people. Derek: Just give me a second. Richard: Hands out! Damn it, stop! Everybody stop! Burke: Cristina, let it go. Bailey: Slow. Erratic. But it's a heartbeat. Addison: Baby's holding steady. Burke: Bring out the plastic. Cristina: Plastic? We're not going to close? Bailey: No. We're going to keep her open, cover her with plastic, and get her to the ICU. Alex: And then what? Richard: And then we're gonna see if she survives. (Derek looks up and sees Marshall in the gallery.) (Marshall is getting ready for his CT) Derek: Ok. We'll take care of you, all right? (Derek walks to the viewing room where Meredith is) Derek: How in the hell do you let a patient get that far off your watch? Meredith: I turned my back for a second. Derek: He was in the damned gallery. Meredith: He's a surgical intern at Mercy West... Derek: I don't care if he's the surgeon general. In this hospital, he's a patient with a head injury who needs a CT. in this hospital, he's a scared guy who does not need to see the massive internal injuries of the woman he rammed with his car! This is your fault. You had him and you lost him! You got to take responsibility for your actions for once in your life! Meredith: Derek! (Melanie's ICU room) Bailey: We've given her medications to help her blood clot and to help counteract the acid buildup. We're slowly raising her body temperature with warming blankets, warmed IV fluids, and blood products. Jim: How long is she going to have to be like that? You know, with...open like that? Addison: We want her to regain as much strength as possible before we operate again. But at the same time, we want to repair the damage as soon as possible. So it's a balancing act. Millie: I'm sorry. I don't quite know what you mean. Bailey: Melanie will die if we don't get her back to surgery soon enough and Melanie will die if we take her back to surgery too soon. Millie: A balancing act. Addison: A balancing act. (Bailey walks out of the room) Bailey: Uh, Yang, call me if she starts actively bleeding. Cristina: Ok. (Addison walks out of the room) Addison: Karev. Where are you going? Alex: What? She's in ICU. There's nothing I can do. Addison: You can sit there with her and watch that fetal monitor. Alex: You can't be serious. She's circling the drain. Addison: You know how long a baby can survive inside its dad mother. Four to five minutes. Minutes not seconds, Karev. Look at Melanie. Look at her. Now look around. You see all the doctors and nurses, even her parents. Their sole job is to take care of Melanie. My job is to care for that baby. Now, I've got a surgery scheduled, so when I step foot on that elevator and leave, you are going to be the only person on this entire floor responsible for that baby. Do not let me down, Karev. (Hospital hallway) Izzie: Her organs are bleeding, damaged, exposed, and covered in plastic wrap. Meredith: Poor Marshall. I mean, one minute you're a surgeon, the next you've destroyed an entire family. Izzie: Last month, I fell asleep in the parking lot. On a bench. I literally couldn't even make it to the car. Meredith: I fell asleep at a restaurant. At a table while I was on a date. Cristina: Yeah, well, I fell asleep during sex. (George walks up) George: Izzie. Hey, Callie's looking for you. You blew off her surgery. Izzie: No. I...I had a patient. Denny. I...I had to go. George: You were hanging out with Denny? Izzie: Oh, please. Do not even talk to me about standards. The girl can't even wash her hands. (George walks away, angrily) Cristina: Don't worry about Bambi. If Burke can forgive me for falling asleep during sex, then George can forgive you for crying. Meredith: But Burke hasn't forgiven you. (Noah's room. Callie is checking on his leg. George enters. ) George: I found Izzie. She said she had a patient. Callie: I knew you'd take her side. George: What? Callie: He needs an IV. (Callie leaves) George: Are you... Noah: She's mad at you. George: I...I didn't know you were awake. Noah: What did you do? George: Uh, has...has anyone talked to you about your wife? About what's happening? Noah: What's happening? Uh...you know, I can't really, uh, wrap my brain around what's happening. You know, I'm from here. Uh, Seattle. And, uh...you know, I go away to college and I come back married to this big-haired, drawling Southern girl. And everyone I know thinks I'm crazy. But I love her. I just...I love her. And, uh...what's happening is that my...big-haired Southern girl could be dying. And...I can't think about that. You know, I need...I need to think about something else. I mean, it doesn't...matter so much. Something that doesn't...doesn't have me burying my 22-year-old wife and baby. So, uh, so...what the hell did you do? George: I believed my friend when she told me that Dr. Torres doesn't wash her hands. Noah: Well, I hope that's not true. Seeing as she just, uh...performed surgery on me and all. George: Yeah. (Derek enters Marshall's room) Derek: You paged me. Meredith: CT results. Derek: Good, thank you. All right, lets see what we've got here. Marshall, everything checks out fine. Your short-term memory loss was a result from the concussion. But to be safe, I want to keep you here overnight for observation, all right? Marshall: I have to apologize. Derek: What? Marshall: To the woman's family. I have to tell them I'm sorry for what I did. Derek: You should get some rest. (Derek leaves, Meredith follows him and they enter a stairwell.) Meredith: I never should have told you about George. Derek: No, it's fine, I'm glad I know. About him. And the vet. You really get around. Meredith: What did you just say to me? Derek: It's unforgivable. Meredith: I don't remember ever asking you to forgive me. Derek: So was the knitting a phase? Who's next? Alex? Because I hear he likes to sleep around. You two have that in common. (Derek turns to leave, Meredith grabs his arm.) Meredith: You don't get to call me a whore. When I met you, I thought I had found the person that I was going to spend the rest of my life with! I was done. So all the boys and all the bars and all the obvious daddy issues, who cared? Because I was done. You left me. You chose Addison. I'm all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke. You don't get to call me a whore. Derek: This think with us is finished. It's over. Meredith: Finally. Derek: Yeah. It's done. Meredith: It is done. (Derek leaves going up the stairs and Meredith slowly goes down.) (Melanie's room) Cristina: Her temperature is 95.4 degrees and her pH is 7.28. Burke: Definitely clotting better. But some of the wounds are still oozing. Richard: Well, still a fine line. She may not be quite sab enough. Millie: Y'all don't have to whisper. I'm sitting right here. I can here you anyway. And she's my baby. She's my little girl. It's a big decision like this. Going back in. Sewing up her...organs. It's the kind of decision that a mama ought to be involved in. I mean, all her life, she's asked me everything. From...what color dress she ought to wear to her kindergarten dance to what she ought to name her baby. Because I'm her mama. And it's my job to have an opinion. It's my job to have an answer. I may not have an answer here, but...I'm still her mama. And you just don't have to whisper. Richard: All right. What do you think, Dr. Bailey? Bailey: I think if we wait much longer she'll go into multiple organ failure. Richard: Ok. If it's all right with you, Mrs. Johnson, we think it's time to get back in there and finish what we started. (Melanie's OR) Derek: Ok, I'm done. Richard: Yang. Get in here and start washing out the abdominal cavity. Burke: Bleeding is controlled in the chest. I had to resect a part of her lung but... Alex: Fetal heart rate's down to 80. Richard: Mom's heart rate is slowing down. Doctor: 48 and dropping. Bailey: Ruptured retroperitoneal hematoma. She's bleeding out. Richard: Idioventricular rhythm. Do we have a BP? Doctor: Trying to run it. Nothing's registering. Bailey: Yang, get your hands in here and hold pressure. Alex: Fetal heart rate down to 60. Cristina: Heart's fibrillating. Bailey: Dr. Webber, can you see the source of the bleed? Burke: Hand me the internal paddles. Alex: We're losing the baby. Burke: Charge to 20. Clear. Richard: We're chasing our tails here. Get Addison Shepherd. (Alex enters the OR next door) Alex: Melanie's crashing. Addison: It's right there. Alex: You hear me? She's crashing. Addison: I'm elbow deep in a patient's uterus, Karev. What do you want me to do? Leave this woman and her child to die. Alex: I'm doing my job. Addison: And I'm doing mine. Do what you can, I'll be there as soon as I'm done. Ok, people, let's speed it up. (George is sitting with Noah, Jim and Millie.) Millie: They'll know where to find us...when there's news? They'll know we're here? George: Yes, ma'am. Millie: Good. Ok. Ok. Jim: Is there something I should be doing, someone I should talk with? Something? George: You're doing everything you can do, Big Jim. (Meredith enters the room) Meredith: I know this isn't the best time, but Marshall would very much like the chance to apologize to the family if they'll let him. He's one of us, George. (Alex enters Melanie's OR) Alex: Shepherd's still in surgery. I told her to hurry. Richard: How's her heart? Bailey: Asystole. Alex: How long has she been down? Cristina: Five minutes. Alex: Well, I'm gonna do a C-section. Glove. I need to get that baby out. Tell me what to do. Bailey: Yang. We're going to...pack away the intestines. I'll expose the uterus. Richard: Ok, call pediatrics. Bailey: Open the uterus with a midline vertical incision. Make sure you don't cut the fetus. Ok, go. Richard: Baby doesn't look good. How are we doing on the mother? Bailey: Oh, she's still bleeding pretty profusely. Hmm. I can't get it controlled. Richard: Burke? Burke: She's not coming back. Richard: Let's stop. Richard: Time of death, 19:48. (Addison enters the room) Addison: Chief? (Addison looks distraught, then she looks over to see Alex with the baby. The baby cries) (Bailey is standing there just looking at Melanie. Richard enters and stands with her.) (Marshall's room. Big Jim enters) Marshall. I am sorry. I am...I am so, so sorry. Please (Big Jim walks in looking like he is going to hurt Marshall but simply puts his hand on Marshall, they both cry. Marshall takes Jim's hand. George and Meredith share a look. Big Jim leaves.) (Izzie enters Denny's room. She pulls the door closed and all the blinds are closed. She starts taking off her shoes.) Denny: You're gonna get in trouble. Izzie: I don't care. Denny: I'm not going to cheer up for you. Izzie: You don't have to cheer up. I'm not here for me. (Izzie lays down on the bed with Denny) Izzie: I'm here for you. Ok? Denny: Ok. MVO: We're all damaged, it seems. (Cristina and Burke's apartment. She sits down at the table with him.) MVO: Some of us more than others. Burke: You must be tired. Cristina: Yeah. Burke: I'm tired too. (Noah is in the NICU with his baby.) MVO: We carry the damage with us from childhood. (Alex is looking into the NICU when Addison walks up.) MVO: Then, as grown-ups, we give as good as we get. Addison: Good work, Karev. Alex: Yeah. Kid's alive. Without a mother. (Meredith and George are sitting in the locker room) MVO: Ultimately, we all do damage. George: See you at home? Meredith: Yeah. George: Ok. See you. Meredith: Ok. MVO: And then...we set about the business of fixing...whatever we can. (Denny and Izzie are lying in bed.) Denny: Izzie? Izzie: Hmm? Denny: Would it be wrong for me to feel you up right now? Izzie: Hmm. Not so much. (They both laugh) Such a dirty boy. Denny: I know. Izzie: Hmm. (George and Callie are sitting in the basement, her apartment.) Callie: I washed my hands. I...I went down to the kitchen and I washed my hands. I didn't wash my hands in the bathroom because those girls were staring at me like I was a rodent or something. Like I was in high school and I was...having the naked dream, only it was actually happening. I didn't even know they were home. I washed my hands. You have to stand up for me. You have to say I washed my hands. George: I'm sorry. (Finn's apartment.) Finn: You're driving my crazy with the hovering. Meredith: This could be a mistake. This. Us. You're a really nice guy and...well...you...you don't want to get involved with me. If you knew me... Finn: Scary. Meredith: Finn. Finn: And damaged. See? I told you. Meredith: If you knew me? If you knew my family? If I told you the guys that I've slept with lately? The scary and damaged may actually be more than you can handle. Finn: My mother's dad. She got cancer when I was ten and she suffered for a really long time. And then she died. And my father never recovered. It's kind of like he died with her, except that his body's above ground and permanently placed in front of the TV with a bottle of Scotch in his lap. The last woman I slept with was my wife, but she died too. It was a car crash, so it was quick. She didn't suffer, which I appreciated. Don't worry. I'm thinking that my luck is beginning to change because I've met you. And you like dogs and you enjoy pony births, and you have the ability to save lives. I never said I wasn't scary and damaged too. (Meredith kisses him)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x24 - Damage Case"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x25: 17 Seconds Original Airdate: 5/14/2006 Written by: Mark Wilding Directed by: Dan Minahan (Joe's Bar) MVO: In life, we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. (Derek and Burke are playing darts) Derek: Let's see what you got here. MVO: We all know the big ones: Gluttony, pride, lust. (Cristina, Izzie and Meredith are watching from another part of the bar.) Cristina: He's picturing my face. He's totally picturing that dart puncturing my skull. MVO: But the sin you don't hear much about is anger. (Burke flexes a muscle) Cristina: Whoa! Look at that. MVO: Maybe it's because we think anger's not that dangerous. (Derek and Meredith exchange angry glances.) Izzie: Derek...Derek is picturing you. MVO: That we can control it. Meredith: He called me a whore. He lost the right to picture me. Izzie: Hmm. Cristina: So I fall asleep during sex. So what? (Loudly) Ass. Meredith: Ass! (Alex walks by) Izzie: Oh, ass! Hey! Alex: Isobel Stevens has finally left the hospital. Does this mean heart patient dude finally kicked it? Izzie: I'm sorry. This section of the bar is for surgeons. We don't socialize with gynecologists. (George enters) Izzie: George! MVO: My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. (Callie is with George) Izzie: Hey. Meredith: Hi, Callie. Cristina: Hi, Dr. Torres. MVO: Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all, when it comes to destructive behavior... George: Uh, gin and tonic and a beer. MVO: ...it did make the top seven. (Seattle Scenes) (Finn's vet clinic) Derek: That's it? That's your diagnosis? Meredith: Yes, he said bone cancer, so that would be his diagnosis. Derek: I heard him. I was double checking. (Addison and Finn can sense the tension in the room) Finn: I still need to do a bone scan to see how far it's spread. Osteosarcomas are aggressive, but we can try and treat it with chemo or remove the tumor entirely. If it's spread too far, we may have to amputate the limb. Derek: At that point, should we even bother? Meredith: Oh, right. Let's just let him die. Derek: I don't want him to suffer, Meredith. Meredith: Right. (Addison, Derek and Meredith are in an elevator at SGH.) Addison: So what's...I mean, is there something going on? Derek & Meredith: No. Addison: Did you guys have a fight, or something? Derek & Meredith: No. Addison: So...we're all still...friends? Derek & Meredith: Yes. (Derek and Meredith exit the elevator, Addison is left standing there confused.) (Burke and Cristina, walking through the hall) Cristina: I heard you might be getting a heart. For a transplant. Burke: Mercy West has a heart and I'm going to get it, yes. Cristina: Can I go? Because, um, I've done it before. With Dr. Bailey, when she went to get a heart. You can ask her. I was very helpful. Burke: Yeah, I'm sure you were. But I'm not going to need your help on this one. (Ambulance Bay) Paramedic: White male. GSW to the left shoulder. Paramedic: Multiple walking wounded. Five injured coming in behind us. (ER) Meredith: Why are they all in the hallway? Cristina: Overflow from the ER. Izzie: A paramedic told us an employee went postal. sht up a restaurant. George: I heard he got away. Meredith: Really? (Another part of the ER) Cristina: Neal Hannigan and Deborah Fleiss. They were paying at the register when the gn came in. Doctor: She's got a through and through to the right upper arm. Good distal pulses. He's sustained a possible graze wound to the right back. Bailey: Lets irrigate the wound and get them to X-ray and order a tet-tox for both. Neal: Don't worry about me, take care of my Deborah first. Deborah: Oh, now you're concerned. Neal: I said I was sorry. Deborah: Sorry? The sh*ting starts, you duck behind me and you're sorry? Cristina: He ducked behind...? You ducked behind her? Neal: It was instinct. I couldn't help it. Deb, honey, you know I love you. Deborah: Love means never having to use your girlfriend as a human shield! Neal: We shared a bllet, Deborah. It went through you and into me. That's a sign we should be together forever. A sign. Deborah: No, Neal, this is a sign! She's squirting water through my arm. Look! I can see you through my arm. That's another sign. Bailey: Good luck. (Another part of the ER) Meredith: Lower left leg deformity from GSW. Pedal pulse is strong and intact. Paramedics said he got five of morphine in the field. Man: Trust me, it was not enough. Callie: Probably got the tibia. Rule out other injuries then get him up to Radiology. (Another part of the ER) Derek: Lets get her up to CT. Get a hold of her parents. Get them down here as soon as possible. What's her name, by the way? George: Kendra. Kendra Thomas. Derek: Kendra. (Another part of the ER) Izzie: Almost...got it. Brad: Do you know what you're doing? Because that really hurts, you know. Izzie: You know what really hurts? gn wounds. You're lucky. Brad: Lucky? There's no luck. Quick thinking, doll. Izzie: Excuse me? Brad: I'm a quick thinker. Smart. Always right on it. As soon as I saw him, Petey...he's the sht...I knew when I fired him he was no good. As soon as I saw him, I though, "Oh, here we go." I just knew it was coming. Hey, Chaz. Larry. No offense, but you guys got to think quicker on your feet. Izzie: They have gn wounds. Very serious gn wounds. Life thrat gn wounds. Brad: Really helps that I'm an athlete because the second I saw Petey with that gn, I was like cat quick. Just dove right through the window. Those guys? Not so smart. Izzie: I'm going to take a wild guess and say that Petey was looking for you. (Another part of the ER) Alex: You seen any enema kits? Meredith: We have 13 GSWs. You're looking for enema kits? Alex: I'm trapped upstairs with the gyno-beast on the uterus parade. Meredith: Addison can't do this to you forever, Alex. Alex: You want to bet? Swear to God, she's ruining vaginas for me. (Another part of the ER) Richard: Two dad, 14 injured. The policeman say the gn got away so there could be more incoming. Burke: I could stay. We could send Bailey. Richard: No. You're our only cardiothoracic transplant specialist. You go get that heart. (Cristina and Alex are watching from nearby) Cristina: Oh, forget it, Karev. I already asked. (Alex runs after Burke) It's not going to...happen. (Rooftop, Burke is entering the helicopter) Alex: Dr. Burke! Dr. Burke! I heard you were getting a heart. Can I go with you? Cristina: I asked first. Burke: You didn't get assigned any gn cases? Cristina: Well, yeah, but if you had put me on this when I asked I would've been free. Alex: I didn't. I'm not doing anything. Cristina: No, he's on the gynie squad! Alex: Not if you put me on this transplant. Please. Burke: Let's go, Karev. Cristina: You can't be serious. Alex: Whoo! See you later, Yang. Whoo! (Inside the helicopter) Alex: So who's the lucky patient? (Burke and Cristina stare at each other) Burke: Denny Duquette. (Alex looks sick) (The ER) Bailey: The answer is no, Stevens. Izzie: You don't even know what I'm going to ask. Bailey: You want to help prep Denny Duquette for transplant. Izzie: So it's true? He's getting a heart then? Bailey: See, your face right now? That's the problem. You're overly attached to your patient. So the answer is no, you cannot prep him. Go back to sutures. Izzie: I know Denny's cardiac parameters. I know how his LVAD works better than any other intern. I also know his meds better. I know the frequency, the dosage, the quantity and his physical limitations. I promise I will...I will be 100% professional. Bailey: No flirting, no knitting him sweaters, no marathon games of Scrabble? Izzie: I will treat him with the same protocol I would any other patient. Bailey: All right. Fine. You can inform him the hearts coming. Izzie: Thank you, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Stevens, if you so much as sit on that bed... Izzie: I got it. (CT viewing room) Derek: Can you imagine? You're at work, you're doing your job and somebody comes in and sht you. Just...puts a bllet in your head. 19 years old. George: I called her parents, they're on their way. Also... Derek: We need to get her into the OR immediately. I mean, the bllet's gone right through the midline. George: Also, uh... Derek: Look at the size of the hematoma. Also? George: What? Derek: You said "also" twice. George: Yeah. Also, she's pregnant. (ER) Brad: Hey, I'm management so I'm 100% covered. So, I could spend a year in this hospital, wouldn't cost me a cent. That's why, when I told you about management, Chaz, you should've listened to me. Because now you're screwed. Even if you just spend one day in this ER, that's three month's rent. Other Man: Is there any chance you can, please, up my morphine? Meredith: He keeps talking, pretty soon I'm going to need some. Will: Can you find out about Kendra for me? Meredith: Are you two friends? Will: Not friends, exactly. But, uh, everybody likes her. You know, she's...she's just...she's nice. She'll cover your shift when you need it. She's good with the customers. She's real generous when it comes to tipping busboys. Meredith: Let me guess. You're a busboy? Will: I am. Plus, she's the only one that calls Brad on his crap. Meredith: Well, why don't you say something? Will: Yeah, I wish. I'm saving up to go back to school. I need the job. (Callie walks up) Callie: What are you, socializing? I've got five more patients for you to see and Will here needs to get to surgery. Move your ass. (Callie walks away and Will gives Meredith a look) Meredith: I need the job. (Denny's room) Izzie: I have some news for you. Denny: Am I getting a better television? Because this one is ridiculously small and it doesn't get the prn channels. Izzie: You're getting a heart, Denny. Denny: I don't mean to be dramatic and all...but I'm going to need you to repeat that. And you say it slow, because this is one of those moments in life that I'm going to want to remember in detail. Izzie: You...are getting a heart...from Mercy West. Dr. Burke already left to get it. Denny: I guess this means I'm going to have to start taking you on some real dates. Izzie: I guess so. (Patricia enters) Patricia: Here we are, Mr. Duquette. Izzie: What are there? Patricia: DNR papers. Izzie: Do not resuscitate? Patricia: I'll leave these here and come back. (Patricia leaves) Izzie: Why are you signing there? You're getting a heart. Denny: If this heart doesn't come through for some reason... Izzie: It will. Denny: The last one didn't. Izzie: You're on an LVAD. Ok? That could give you another two years right there. Denny: Izzie...if I don't get this heart...I'm done. I'm...I'm sorry...I'm tired. Izzie: No. No. I'm not going to let you make this decision. Not now. Denny: Well, that's funny because I thought DNR was a patient's choice. Listen to me. I believe in heaven, Izzie. And if I had to choose between this life here...and one in heaven...I choose heaven. Ok? Izzie: Ok. (ER) Cristina: Ok, the x-rays will tell us the location of the bllet. Deborah: Mine was a through and through, right? So there's no bllet. Cristina: Yeah, well we wanna make sure it didn't ht bone. Neal: However this turns out, I want you to operate on my fianc�e first. I don't care if I'm dying. Cristina: You're not dying. Deborah: I'm also not your fianc�e anymore. Neal: We already sent out the invitations. We're getting married six weeks from now. Deborah, please. I love you. Cristina: Oh, don't fall for it. Neal: Excuse me, but... Cristina: That's how they do it, huh? With the "I love you's" and the "move in with me's" and they suck you in and they melt your resolve. And the minute you actually need something, something you totally deserve, forget it, you know, it's not going to happen. Because they pass you over for surgery or they're gonna duck behind you when someone's shting. Deborah: You're very, very bitter. Neal: That's exactly what I was thinking. See? We're meant to be together. Deborah: Shut up, Neal. Cristina: Mm-hmm. (Mercy West) (Burke and a doctor from Mercy West are walking through the hall talking) Doctor: Two brothers tried to pass a semi on a double yellow and came out on the losing end of a head-on. Both are a match for your guy. Alex: So we get our pick. Burke: It doesn't work like that. UNOS has already assigned who gets which donor. Alex: So who's retrieving the other heart? (They walk up to a woman, Erica Hahn.) Erica: Took you long enough, Preston. Why is Junior here? Your ego get too big for one man to carry? Burke: Dr. Hahn here graduated second in our class at Johns Hopkins, Dr. Karev. Ask her who graduated first. Erica: God. (Scrub room where Derek and Addison are talking about Kendra) Addison: Kendra's fetus is 12 weeks along. It seems healthy. Did you hear me, Derek? Derek: I heard you. Addison: So you're not gonna tell me what's going on between you and Meredith? Derek: I told you. There's nothing to tell. (George enters) George: Kendra's parents are here. Derek: Let them know the situation, have them sign the consent forms, then scrub in. George: Yes, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Thank you. (Mercy West, OR) Burke: What the hell happened to my donor? Doctor: He went into v-fib. Burke: I can see that. Give me the paddles. Karev, take over compressions! You gave epi? Doctor: Three rounds and shocked him twice. Burke: I'm going to ht him again at 360. Clear! He's asystolic. Alex: I don't get it. I mean, if the guy's already dad... Burke: And now his heart has joined the rest of him. Alex: Hmm. So, we can't use it? Burke: No, Karev, we cannot use it. The muscle is dad. The heart is useless. (Burke runs out of the room) Alex: Dr. Burke? Burke: (Running through the hall) Move, move, move, move, move! (Entering Dr. Hahn's OR) Stop right there! Don't move that scalpel! Not even a single slice! Erica: Just because your donor's heart died doesn't mean I have to give you mine. Burke: Is your patient higher on the transplant list? Is he higher on the transplant list? Erica: I have no idea. Burke: Well, neither do I. Karev, get UNOS on the phone now. Erica: Oh, give me a break! (A doctor picks up a scalpel) Burke: Hey! Hey! Erica: What? Are you going to bat him up? Burke: If I have to. Erica: Ok, just hold on. It's pathetic, Preston. Really pathetic. (Callie is standing at the OR board when Meredith walks up) Meredith: I've finished all five of your patients. Do you mind if I scrub in? I've never seen an ORIF before. Callie: Can't! The board's all backed up like crazy. Will's gonna have to wait a few hours, because every specialty thinks their surgeries are more important than Ortho. Freaking superior macho jerks. Meredith: Can I ask you a question? About bone cancer. Callie: Yeah. Meredith: In a dog. Callie: A dog? Meredith: My dog. Well, Derek's dog. Do you know Dr. Shepherd? It's our dog. We share the dog, which is...well, never mind. I just wanted to ask if you knew the success rate of curing osteosarcoma in a canine leg? Callie: We have an actual human patient with a bllet lodged in his tibia who might walk with a limp for the rest of his life, who might even conceivably lose his leg, and you're asking me about your precious dog that you share with your precious McDreamy? Yeah, I...I know about him. And you think I care? Unbelievable! (Mercy West conference room) Erica: Your guys on an LVAD? He's probably up and walking around. My guy still needs his dobutamine drip. Burke: That's the best you can do? He can climb Mount Shasta on a dobutamine drip. Man on Phone: As of this morning, Dr. Hahn's patient was 22 hundredths of a point ahead. Burke: That's basically a tie. Man on Phone: Except that Dr. Hahn's patient was admitted into the transplant program before Mr. Duquette. Burke: How long before? Man on Phone: 17 seconds. Burke: 17 seconds. Erica: Might as well be 17 weeks. It doesn't matter. (Burke's cell phone rings) (Burke hands the phone to Alex who answers it) Alex: Hello? (Izzie is sitting in the lobby) Izzie: Alex? Where's Dr. Burke? Alex: What do you want? Izzie: I wanted to know how the heart recovery is going. Alex: He's working on it. Izzie: He's working on it? So, he's operating then? Alex: There were two donors, Izzie. Our guy's heart flatlined. And now he's trying to get the other guy's. Izzie: But there's a list. Alex: Yes. And the higher guy gets the heart. Izzie: Denny's getting sicker. Alex: What? Izzie: Denny's getting worse by the second. His, uh, sats are in the eighties. Alex: Izzie. Izzie: It's seventies. His sats are now in the seventies and dropping. Alex: Izzie, I'm not going to lie for you. Izzie: Then put Burke on the phone! (Meredith is sitting in a conference room and Addison enters) Addison: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Addison: Have you seen Dr. Karev? Meredith: Uh...hours ago. Addison: Ok. (Addison and Meredith smile at each other and Meredith goes back to her work. Addison does not leave.) Addison: Sorry. I, uh...I'm not sorry. I just...I'm having a little trouble because I need to ask you something. And I don't usually have trouble. But what I need to ask...I'm not even sure I want the answer to, but I have to ask. So I'm just going to ask you and then you answer and then...uh, I'll go from there, ok? Meredith: Ok. Addison: Are you sleeping with my husband? Meredith: Not since before I knew he was married. Addison: Ok. (She starts to leave but turns back) Except, you know, it just...it felt like in the vet's office this morning, and then again in the elevator...if felt a little like you two were having a lover's quarrel? Meredith: No. We're not. I've moved on. I'm dating Finn. Addison: You're dating the vet? (A look of realization comes over Addison's face) Addison: Ok. Meredith: Addison... Addison: No, no. Thanks. I'm...I'm good. Thanks. I'm great. (Burke is on the phone with Izzie.) Burke: Flash pulmonary edema? Is it the LVAD? Is the LVAD working? Izzie: Absolutely. Burke: Well, did you put him on a nitro drip? Izzie: Um, yes. Yes, of course. (Mercy West Conference room) Erica: Preston, she could be putting paddles directly on his heart. He's still not getting this thing. Burke: How's his blood pressure? Izzie: It's, uh, still dropping. 82 over 40. Burke: Then take him off the drip and put him on dopamine. Now! Don't hang up. (To people in conference room) According to my intern, Denny Duquette now qualifies as a 1A candidate for that heart. That puts him ahead of Dr. Hahn's patient. Erica: I'm out of here. This is just crap. Man on Phone: Dr. Hahn? Erica: What? Man on Phone: If Dr. Burke wants to run labs, do an echo and a BNP to fully ascertain the status of his patient, we'll allow it. Erica: That'll take an hour. Man on Phone: Is the donor sab? Dr. Hahn? Is the donor sab? Erica: Yes, the donor is currently sab. Man on Phone: In that case. Dr. Burke, you've got an hour to get those tests. Burke (To his cell phone): Dr. Stevens? Izzie: I heard. Burke: Good. Get going then. (Kendra's OR) Doctor: BP is 220 over 130. Derek: The brain's fungating out of the wound. George: What's fungating? Derek: Herniating. Nurse: She's bradycardic. Derek: Um, give me 50 mannitol and 20 of furosemide. What's her pulse? Nurse: Down to 32. Derek: Come on, Kendra. Come one. CO2? Nurse: 40. Derek: Oh, God. Clot's already evacuated. All right, everybody. George: But... Derek: She's brain dad. There's nothing we can do now. (Derek and George are in the waiting room talking with Kendra's parents) Derek: There is no spontaneous brain activity and she isn't going to wake up. Mrs. Thomas: Oh, God. Mr. Thomas: What about the baby? Is the baby ok? Derek: As far as we can tell, the baby's fine but...that's not the point. Essentially your daughter is dad. We need your consent to remover her from life support. Mr. Thomas: What if we kept Kendra alive? Could the baby live? George: With all due respect, sir, you don't want to do that. Mr. Thomas: Are you part of this family? Do you have a daughter? If you don't, you really ought to just shut up! Mrs. Thomas: Our daughter could have this baby? (Nurse is stitching up Brad) Brad: You know, even with all these cuts, I don't feel any pain. I swear, I have the highest pain threshold of anybody I know. (Bailey walks up to Will who is watching Brad from afar) Will: God! If I could say something to that guy and not get fired... Bailey: He can't fre me. (Bailey walks over to Brad's bed) Bailey: Uh, Mr. Eckles? Brad? Uh, I'm happy for you that you're not feeling much pain from your very minor injuries. But there are a great many people in this hospital who are in a great amount of pain. See, they have bllts in their bones, in their chests, and in their brains. bllts from a gn that was aiming for you. And although they can't say it because you are the boss of them, most of these people at this moment are praying...not that they'll live, not that the pain will subside, they're praying to God for you at this moment to shut the heck up! (Bailey walks away leaving Brad stunned. As she walks by Will he mouths thank you.) Bailey: No problem. (Cristina and Meredith are sitting on gurneys in a hallway, talking.) Cristina: Karev. He stood there and chose that moron over me. Meredith: I mean, I'm trying to help the dog and he's standing there talking about putting the dog down. Like Doc means nothing. Cristina: He's not rewarding Karev, he's punishing me. Meredith: And he hates Finn. Who, by the way, is great with dogs. Cristina: You know, he withholds surgery when I'm a bad girlfriend. It's his M.O. I mean, how controlling and macho and petulant is that? Meredith: At least he's not shting people or putting down dogs. (Izzie walks up) Cristina: I'm dumping him. This relationship is so over. Izzie: Um, I...I told a lie...to Dr. Burke. Cristina: Good for you. Fight the power. Izzie: No, no. I need...um...God, I can't think. I...I can't...I don't know what to do. What do I do? There's this guy ahead of Denny of the transplant list. Meredith: He'll get the next heart, Iz. Izzie: No! He needs to get this heart! Cristina: He'll probably get a heart at some point, but as long as Denny's doing well on the LVAD and there's someone ahead of him on the transplant list, he's not going to get this heart. Ok? Izzie: (Looks like she had a revelation) Yes. You're right. Ok. Thank you. Thank you. (Izzie starts grabbing supplies) Cristina: (Whispering) Ok, if I was going to pick someone who was gonna go psycho and sht up the place...it's Izzie. Meredith: Totally. (Izzie enters Denny's room with a crash cart and other supplies.) Denny: What's all that? Izzie: Heart stuff. Denny: What? So you're gonna put this heart in me in my room? I didn't know transplants were so informal. Izzie: There may not be a heart, Denny. Somebody at Mercy West might get it instead. Denny: So this isn't going to happen...again? Izzie: Not necessarily. I have been over this and over this and it can't be a lie and it can't be fake. We need charts, we need test results. We need UNOS to believe us. So it has to be real. Denny: What are you talking about, Izzie? Izzie: In order for you to get the heart, you would have to get worse. Much worse. And you would have to do it very quickly. Denny: Well, I don't see that happening. You see that happening? Izzie: I am going to make it happen. (Seattle Scenes) (Mercy West, Alex enters the OR where Burke is) Burke: It's been 30 minutes already. Is Stevens answering her page? Alex: She probably busy getting test results. Burke: Did you call Bailey? Alex: Well, she's not answering either. Erica: You can check the chart all you want. You're not getting this heart. Burke: Well, you may not want it. His angiogram shows 30% LAD. Erica: It's still not enough to give it to you. (Denny's room. Izzie is closing the blinds.) Denny: Izzie. Izzie, stop and listen to me. We're not doing this. Izzie: Don't worry. You're not going to die. I will be here the whole time to make sure of that and that's what this stuff is for. Denny: This isn't about me dying. All right? This is wrong. Izzie: You've waited a year and a half to get this thing. Who knows when the next one is gonna come along? Denny: I'll take my chances. Izzie: No! it may be too late by then. Denny: Then it's too late! All right? Now, get this stuff out of here! Izzie: Denny, please. You have to do this. Denny: No, Izzie. I'm not about to steal a heart from another man's chest. Not to mention, this will be the end of your medical career. Izzie: I don't care about my medical career. Denny: All right, you know what? This has gone on long enough. I'm gonna call a nurse. Izzie: Everyone who is entered into the transplant program is clocked in to the second. To the second. Denny, you were clocked in to the second and so was the other guy. I checked with UNOS. The difference between when you entered the program and when he entered the program is 17 seconds. That's it, Denny. Seventeen seconds. I mean, it's not even the length of a decent kiss. So this other guy? I'm not saying that he doesn't deserve this heart. I'm sure he does. But so do you. So do you! And if you tell me any more crap about heading towards the light or looking down on me from heaven, I swear I will kll you myself, right now. Denny: Izzie. I'm gonna be all right. All right? You don't have to worry. Izzie: What about me? What about me when you go to the light? Denny: Izzie... Izzie: (Hysterically) No! I get it, ok? I get it. You'll be ok. You'll be fine, but what about me? So don't do it for yourself. Do it for me! Please! Please, Denny! Please do this for me! Because if you die...Oh, God you have to do this. You have to do this for me or I'll never be able to forgive you! Denny: For dying? Izzie: No! For making me love you! Please! Please do this for me. Denny: Come here. Izzie: Ok? Please! Ok? I can't do this if you don't. Please do this for me! Because if you don't do this...Please! Denny: Ok. Ok, I'll do it. (Denny holds her in his arms) (Callie and George are walking through the hall) Callie: I'm in the middle of analyzing an X-ray and your friend Meredith starts asking me about her dog. Her dog. George, she wants a medical opinion about her dog. George: She likes her dog. Callie: Why are you defending Meredith? George: What? Callie: I get Izzie. I mean, I don't. But if you want to defend Izzie, that's fine. I don't get how you can defend Meredith. George: Hey! We're interns. We all started out together, Meredith, Izzie, Cristina and me. We started out together. Callie: George, that woman hurt you as badly as anyone can be hurt. You were devastated when I met you. George: Hey. They're family. Izzie and Meredith and Cristina they're...they're my family. I can hate Meredith and I can be angry at her but I'll always defend her. Callie: So you don't have to forgive Meredith but I do? George: If you want a chance to be part of the family, yeah. (Izzie is on the phone with Dr. Burke.) Izzie: Dr. Burke. Hello. Burke: Stevens. Where the hell have you been? Have you got the lab results? Izzie: Um...I'm working on that. Burke: Stevens, I need answers. Stevens? Izzie: You should get back here. With the heart. As soon as you can. Burke: What the hell are you...what are you talking about? Izzie: Preston. Burke: Izzie, what did you do? Izzie: Soon as I get confirmatory tests and labs to raise Denny's UNOS status, I will fax them over to you. Then you should waste no time getting back here. Because I don't know enough to know how long Denny will have once I start. Burke: Start? What did you do, Izzie? What did you do? Izzie: I'm going to hang up now. Just hurry. (Burke enters Dr. Hahn's OR) Burke: According to my intern, Denny Duquette is in pulmonary edema. He has been intubated and placed on multiple IV drips. Doctor: So, Preston gets the heart. Great, lets open this guy. Burke: However, given this unusual situation and out of respect to Dr. Hahn, I'd like to confirm those results. Alex: You just did. Burke: In person. I want to confirm them in person. Erica: Are you kidding? By the time you get there, it'll be another hour. What are you up to, Burke? Why don't you just talk to your chief? Confirm the results with him. Alex: Well, because of the sh*t today...at the restaurant. All our attendings are still in surgery. Burke: Exactly. Now, if you'd prefer, or I can just call UNOS and have them give me the heart. Or I can go and make sure that it really belongs to me. Erica: Go. Burke: Thank you. (Burke and Alex start to leave) Burke: I'm going back to Seattle Grace. You stay here and protect my heart. If that woman so much as looks at a scalpel, tackle her. Do you understand? Alex: Yes, sir. (Derek and Addison are in a hallway) Derek: Hey, you got a minute? Addison: You ready to talk? Derek: Uh, my patient, Kendra Thomas. She's brain dad. Her parents want to keep her alive to have the baby. Addison: So, you want me to talk to the parents? Derek: Well, I tried already, but I figured, you know, you're neonatal, you might have a better sht at it than I do. Addison: Ok. Derek: It's just that you could give the a much more detailed picture... Addison: I said I'd do it. (Kendra's room) Addison: Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Dr. Shepherd asked me to talk to you about your daughter and her pregnancy. Mr. Thomas: We've made up our mind. She's having the baby. Addison: I know Kendra meant the world to you and I know the terrible grief you must be going through right now, but from a medical standpoint, this is a very bad idea. Mr. Thomas: Well, if we'd wanted your opinion, miss, we'd ask for it. Mrs. Thomas: It's just...we love our daughter. Please try to understand. Addison: I do understand. I do. You think if you love her enough or love her baby enough that it will keep her close to you. But she's already gone and if you go forward with this, you're risking...I mean, if Kendra, were to contract an infection, she could pass it on to the fetus and it could cause brain damage... Mr. Thomas: We're taking our chances. Mrs. Thomas: Now...they keep organ donors alive after they're...gone. Why not Kendra? Addison: Organ donors aren't kept alive for six months. Your daughter is brain dad. She can't regulate body temperature, hormone output. These things are very important for a fetus. Mr. Thomas: You guys can regulate that stuff, right? Addison: We could try. I... Mr. Thomas: Well then try, damn it! What the hell's the problem here? Addison: The problem, as I see it, is you want to use your daughter's corpse as an incubator. That's the problem. Derek: Ok, I'm sorry. Would you excuse us? Addison: That's the problem. What? What? Derek what are you doing? Derek? Derek: They just lost their daughter. Addison: I know. That was my point, Derek. They need to face that. She's not coming back. Derek: A little sensitivity would be nice here, ok? They love their daughter. They don't want to let go. Addison: What they're doing is not about love, Derek. It's...it's...well, it's like you. Derek: Excuse me? Addison: Like how you pretend to love me, but really you're just using me to fill some need you have to be a good guy. Derek: Now is not the time to talk about this. We'll talk about this later. Addison: You walk away? That's all I get? Derek: Just calm down, please. Addison: What? What? You're not going to yell at me? Call me names? Or I don't know...ignore me in an elevator. Derek: What do you want from me, Addison? Addison: I want you to care! I sleep with your best friend and you walk away. He comes out here from New York and rubs it in your face, and still you get a good night's sleep. What do I have to do? Oh! I know. Maybe what I should do is go out on a date with the vet. Because that seems to something that sends you into a blind rage. Oh, but wait. That won't work either because I'm not Meredith Grey! (Derek nods his head towards the floor below. Addison looks and sees Meredith, Cristina, Chief Webber among others. They have witnessed the whole scene. Derek walks away.) (Kendra's room) George: I know this is a bad time, but have you decided, do you still want to go ahead with the baby? Mr. Thomas: We haven't decided on anything. George: Sir? You asked me before if I had a daughter. I don't. but I have a family. I...actually have a couple families. The thing about families, you don't necessarily like what they do. Their choices and their decisions. But you stick by them. Right now one of my friend, her boyfriend is dying. Heart failure. He's 36. I checked Kendra's driver's license, she's a donor. She's not a match for him, but she could save a dozen other lives. And from what I know about Kendra, what I've heard, I gotta believe that if she had the choice between where she is right now and saving a dozen other people, she'd save those people. That would be her decision. So the question is...whether you stick by her one last time. Excuse me. (Meredith enters an X-ray viewing room where Callie is.) Meredith: You paged? Callie: Yeah. There are, um, these are X-rays of a human with an osteosarcoma on his tibia. It's the closest I could get to mirroring what's actually happening to your dog. In this patient, the cancer was aggressive. And it spread quickly and he died when it finally metastasized on his lungs. Meredith: The human died? Callie: Yes. The human died. Meredith: Thank you, Callie. Callie: You're welcome, Meredith. (Deborah and Neal are kissing and getting ready to go home.) Deborah: You ok, baby? Neal: Yeah. (Cristina enters) Cristina: Well, you made up with him? Hmm. Deborah: I told him I'd give him one more chance. Neal: And I told her, she won't have to. What I went through today, what we went through today, it's changed me. This bllet will always remind me to do the right thing by my Deborah. Cristina: Here you go. Deborah: And whatever's going on with you and your boyfriend? Maybe you should just try and forgive him. It really feels so much better than all that anger. Cristina: Thanks. (Will's bed) Bailey: We haven't forgotten you, Will. We'll get you to the OR as soon as possible. (Brad is watching from nearby) Will: My friend, Kendra...Dr. Grey said that if anybody had any information they'd give me, they would let me know as soon as possible. Bailey: Ok, I'm sorry. (Brad walks up) Brad: I'm gonna get you some time off, man. I'm gonna talk to the owner, make sure they keep your job for you, you know. It's not your fault you got sht. Not my fault either. You know, I...I didn't...I didn't pull the trigger. Petey had the gn. I'm just saying. People blame management, but we do the best we can. I mean, I...I do the best I can. (Hallway) Addison: I know what you're going to say, Richard, but if you knew that day that I had... Richard: Everybody in this hospital has those days, Addison. And no one makes a scene in front of their peers. Get it together. Addison. Addison: I can't compete. He's not having an affair. He's not trying to hurt me. He's just...the only people who don't know Derek loves Meredith are Derek and Meredith. How do I compete with that? MVO: So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? (Derek and Meredith are in the elevator. He looks at Meredith then turns away. She looks at Derek then turns away. He starts to say something but changes his mind. They get off the elevator.) MVO: It's pretty simple really. You give in to a sin like envy or pride then you only hurt yourself. (George and Callie are in the locker room) Callie: I love you. (George just looks at her) I'm sorry. I'm...I...I didn't mean to...I just...I...I have verbal diarrhea and I'm a moron. What are you thinking? Are you freaking out or...? (Izzie enters) Izzie: George, I need your help. I wouldn't ask if it weren't important. It's... George: Ok. (To Callie) I'll call you? Later? Callie: Sure. (Meredith enters Finn's) Finn: Were we supposed to have dinner tonight? Meredith: Tell me the truth about Doc. Finn: What about him? Meredith: You've been downplaying how sick he is, haven't you? Finn: The best-case scenario, I would say Doc has maybe a year left. Meredith: Ok. Finn: And Doc is not the best-case scenario. Meredith: Ok. Finn: Meredith? Meredith: Oh, damn it. Finn: I am sorry. I'm so sorry. I know how much you love him. Meredith: I do. I love him so much. (George enters Denny's room) George: You need my help for an EKG? Izzie: No. Come. (To Denny) Ok, after I do this, I might have to shock you a few times. George: Do what? Izzie: You feeling good? Denny: I think so. Explain this to me again. Izzie: Ok, the LVAD has been inserted into your abdomen and is connected to your heart. This cord leads to the power source, this one is connected to the pump that pumps your heart for you. I have the crash cart, the defibrillator, the Ambu bag, saline... George: Do what, Izzie? Izzie: Um, I feel like we should say stuff. Denny, do you want to say stuff? Denny: Kiss me. Right here. (they kiss) Izzie, that kiss was worth 1,000 words. Izzie: A picture. A picture is worth a 1,000 words. Denny: You're gonna correct me at a time like this? George: I don't mean to be intrusive... Izzie: Just give me a second, George. Izzie: Ok, are you ready? Denny: As I'll ever be. (Izzie picks up the scissors) George: Wait. What are you doing? (Deborah and Neal are being released. Bailey is scrubbing her hands at a sink. Brad is leaving as well.) MVO: Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself, and probably one or two others. But anger...anger is the worst. (gn are heard. Neal ducks behind Deborah) Deborah: Ok. We're done. Bailey: What was that? Were those gn? (Bailey runs to where the sound came from) MVO: The mother of all sins. (Will's bed) Will: Petey. (Denny's room) Izzie: Denny. If there really is some kind of big glowy light... Denny: I'll try like hell to stay out of it. Izzie: Exactly. George: I don't like that sound of this. Izzie: Just make sure nobody comes through that door. George: What are you doing? Izzie: I'm stopping his heart, George. MVO: Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does, you can take an awful lot of other people with you. (Bailey runs outside. Bailey checks Brad's pulse. He is dad.) (Denny's room) George: Izzie. (Bailey runs up to another g*n victim. It is Dr. Burke) Bailey: Oh! Dr. Burke. I need some help! (Denny's room, Izzie and Denny are looking at each other) (Outside Bailey is trying to help Dr. Burke who is lying on the ground not moving) (Denny's room) Izzie: It's ok. Burke will be here any minute. (Izzie cuts the LVAD wire and there is the sound flatlining.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x25 - 17 Seconds"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x26: Deterioration of the Fight or Flight Response Original Airdate: 5/15/2006 Written by: Joan Rater & Tony Phelan Directed by: Rob Corn (Bailey is in front of the hospital helping Burke who has been sht) MVO: Human beings need a lot of things to feel alive. (Denny's heart monitor is flatlined) George Voice Over: Family. (Denny is lying in bed motionless.) Cristina Voice Over: Love. Izzie Voice Over: Sex. Derek Voice Over: But we only need one thing... Burke Voice Over: To actually be alive. (Derek is standing on the balcony overlooking the hospital floor) Cristina Voice Over: We need a beating heart. (Bailey is performing CPR on Burke.) Addison Voice Over: When our heart is thrat... Alex Voice Over: We respond in one of two ways. George: We either run... Burke Voice Over: Or... (Camera switches to Burke's point of view, he is seeing blurry and sees Bailey above him. Burke opens his eyes.) Izzie Voice Over: We attck. Richard Voice Over: There's a scientific term for this. Alex Voice Over: Fight... Addison Voice Over: Or flight. Bailey Voice Over: It's instinct. MVO: We can't control it. (Denny is flatlined and Izzie is standing next to him still holding the scissors.) Izzie Voice Over: Or can we? George: Izzie. His heart's barely beating. We need to call a code. I can't feel a pulse. Izzie, we need to call a code! Izzie: No! I have a plan. George: He's crashing! I need to call the... Izzie: No! If we call a code, they will rush him to surgery and replace his LVAD and then he will sab. He needs to get worse if he's gonna get this heart. George: Izzie, this is crazy. Izzie: He has to get this heart. He will die waiting for another chance. You know he will. George: We have to call a code! Izzie: No! You press that code button, I will hurt you. Not a lot, cause we're friends, but enough so that things will break and you will lie on the floor out of my way. George: Izzie... Izzie: You have a decision to make. You can stay here and help me with this or you can go. What's it gonna be, George? (Cristina enters the ER and walks up to Richard.) Cristina: Chief! How bad is it? It looks bad. Um, I'm here. I can help. If there's anything surgical, I can help. Richard: Why don't you go run Trauma 2, Dr. Yang? Cristina: I get to run Trauma 2 all by myself? Richard: Yes, but find me if you need help. And get consults. Cristina: I'm on it. (Cristina runs off to Trauma 2. Richard walks to the entrance where Bailey is wheeling Burke inside.) Richard: How bad is it? Bailey: Uh, GSW to the right shoulder. He's lost a lot of blood. Richard: All right. Get him to Trauma 1 and keep the blinds closed. Yang's on the floor. (Trauma 2) Doctor: Self inflicted GSW to the head. Pulse is thready. Cristina: This guy's the sh*t? Doctor: Yep. Emptied his clip, then sht himself. Cristina: And blew off half his head. Ok, ok. Um, push one of epi and get him on the monitor. Doctor: You're running this? Cristina: Damn right, I am. (Burke's ER. Burke is struggling to get off the gurney) Bailey: Hey. Wait. Burke: I'm fine. Richard: You need to lay down. You've lost a lot of blood. Burke: I'm fine. Let go. I'm fine. I have a patient that I have to go check on. Bailey: No, no. No, you are the patient. Lay down! Burke: (Laughing) Dr. Bailey, when did you get here? Richard: Page Shepherd. (Cristina's ER, she is doing CPR on Petey, Derek walks past the window and enters the ER where Burke is. As the door opens, Cristina sees Burke inside.) Cristina: Take over compressions. (Cristina goes into Burke's ER) Cristina: You're sht? Burke: Cristina? Richard: Get back to your station, Yang. Cristina: He's sht? Bailey: Yang, we got it. It's ok. Cristina: That guy sht you. (Cristina goes back into her ER) Cristina: Move. Doctor: He's a lost cause. Cristina: Move. Doctor: He's circling the drain. Cristina: (To Petey) You don't get to kll yourself. You do not get off that easily. Push high dose epi. Doctor: Dr. Yang... Cristina: What? I want to be able to tell his family that I did everything I could to save his pathetic, miserable life. Give him three of epi. Now! (Seattle Scenes) (Mercy West) Alex: We should be hearing from Dr. Burke any minute. Erica: That's what you said half an hour ago. Well, whether or not we hear from him, we ht that hour mark, I'm going in to get my heart. (Burke's ER) Bailey: Ok, no, no exit wound. Derek: Entry upper right shoulder. Could be lodged in the spine. Ok, lets roll him over. Richard: Easy. Derek: Watch the arm. Richard: Easy. Derek: Hey. Dr. Burke? Burke: Hmm? Derek: The bllet is in dangerous property here, ok? We need to check your hand function. Richard: I want you to try and squeeze my fingers, ok? (Cristina enters) Cristina: They moved my guy upstairs. How is he? Bailey: I need you to wait outside. Cristina: I'm not gonna wait outside. Burke? Burke: Can we have a moment? Richard: Only a moment. I don't want to waste any time, ok? Burke: Cristina. Cristina: Honey, you don't have to say anything. I know you're sorry. I know you didn't mean to kick me off the transplant and I'm not mad. I mean, I was, but I'm not anymore. So, don't even think about it. Ok? I mean, all that matters it that you get better and you get through this. And I'm here for you. Whatever you need. Anything. Burke: I need...you...to...to go...to check on Denny Duquette. Cristina: Ok. Burke: Mm-hmm. Cristina: Ok, that was my best "supportive girlfriend" and you kind of ruined it with medicine. Ok? (Adele pulls up a curtain in the ER to reveal Addison walking up) Adele: Addison! Thank you for meeting us. Addison: You wanna tell me what's so important I'm keeping it secret from my Chief of Surgery? (A young lady, Camille is on a hospital bed in full prom attire) Adele: I was chaperoning a prom for my niece. We had a little bit of a situation. Addison: Camille Travis, 17, lost consciousness during sexual intercourse? Adele: Oh, keep it down. Camille: It's ok, Aunt Adele, I'm fine. Adele: When your Uncle Richard finds out you were cashing in your V-card, none of us will be fine. (Two girls and a boy enter in their prom attire) Claire-Camille? Natalie: Mrs. Webber! Claire: My God! Is she ok? Natalie-She has to ok, right? Claire-No one ever died from having sex, right? Brian-You're not going to tell my parents, right? I mean, I even used a condom and everything. (Denny's room. George is looking at a computer while Izzie is manually pumping Denny's heart. Meredith enters) Meredith: George's page said it was an emergency. Izzie: You paged Meredith? George: We need help! Meredith: What the hell is going on? (Cristina enters) Cristina: What the hell is going on? Meredith: Exactly what I said. George: She cut his LVAD wires! Meredith: What do you mean you cut his LVAD wires? Cristina: Are you trying to kll him? Izzie: I'm trying to save him. All I have to do is confirm that his condition is worse, then Burke can call UNOS and he'll move up on the list and he will get his heart. Cristina: About Burke... George: She's gone insane, right? It's not just me? Cristina: About Burke... Izzie: Everything will be fine! Meredith: Izzie! Izzie: When Burke gets here, everything will be fine. He will know what to do. Cristina: About Burke... George: (Loudly) What? Cristina: He's been sht! (George is now pumping Denny's heart) Izzie: Burke's not coming? Meredith: Cristina, are you ok? Cristina: I'm fine. Izzie: Burke's not coming? George: Why didn't I take the internship in San Diego? None of this would be happening if I was in San Diego. Izzie: Burke's not coming. Cristina: No, Izzie. Burke is not coming. I know your having problems here what with your possible mrder charges and your unbelievably stupid idea about stealing a heart, but Burke's kind of busy right now! Izzie: Denny's gonna die. Denny's gonna die and I klled him. George: (Yelling) You shouldn't have done it! Meredith: George! George: We have to tell someone. Meredith: No! Denny won't get the heart and Izzie'll get kicked out of the program. Cristina: I'm leaving. George: What? Meredith: Cristina! Cristina: Burke could die, too. Complications arise all the time because of gn wounds! You think about that. Izzie: Oh, my God. Cristina: Oh, God. You know what, none of this would have happened, if you were thinking with your head... Izzie: I did what I thought was best! George: Did you think about the rules? Did you think for one second... Meredith: Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! No one is leaving. And no one is dying. Denny: Thank you. It was kind of getting on my nerves all this dying talk. Izzie: Denny. Denny: It's ok. I think, uh, maybe we should all listen to Meredith. It looks like she might have a plan. Izzie: You have a plan? Meredith: Just give me a minute. (Outside Camille's room) Adele: You girls should go back to the prom. Claire: Are you gonna call Camille's parents? Adele: Not until I have to. You knew her mom. She gets a little hysterical. (Richard walks up to a nearby nurse's station) Adele: Brian, disappear. Brian: What? Adele: Disappear! Go! Disappear! Richard. Richard. Richard: Adele. Adele: Hmm. Richard: Um, what? Are you here to see Preston? Adele: Preston? No. What happened to Preston? Richard: Preston was sht. Adele: Preston was sht? Richard: Yeah. (Richard peeks through the window over Adele's shoulder and sees Camille inside. She is now wearing a hospital gown.) Richard: Camille. What happened to Camille? Adele: Richard... Richard: Why didn't you call me? Adele: She's 17, sweetheart. She'll be 18 in a few months. Most girls lose it way before... Richard: Uh-huh! Do you think I want to hear that? Do you think I wanna picture my baby niece..."losing it"? Adele: Richard, Richard, take deep breaths. (Addison walks out of Camille's room and up to them) Addison: Well, the bleeding has stopped, but her pelvic exam does concern me. I'd like to do an ultrasound. Richard: Three years ago, Camille was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. They only removed one ovary to try and preserve fertility, but her checkups have been clean since then. Addison: Ok. Well, let's not worry until we have to. (Brian walks by) Richard: You! You wait right there! I want to talk to you! (Adele motions for him to run and Brian starts to run away) I said wait. Stop! I said stop! Adele: Richard, take deep breaths! Richard! (Denny's room) George: Oh, that's a stupid plan! Meredith: Well, if Burke isn't coming, then we have to confirm Denny's condition ourselves. We get the blood work. We do the echo. And no one even has to know what Izzie did. Izzie: But none of us have done an echo on our own before. Meredith: Cristina has. Burke taught her. Cristina: I'm not involved. Izzie: What if this were Burke? What if you were me? Cristina: This is bad. This is bad and serious and against a lot of rules. It's not fun for me. I don't wanna play. Izzie: What if you were me? Cristina: Well, I wouldn't have fallen in love with a patient. Izzie: You fell in love with an attending. Cristina: Well, so did Mer. What's the point? Meredith: The point is, we can't help who we fall in love with. George: Yeah. Izzie: Yeah. (Burke's room) Derek: His hands are cold. Burke: My hands are always cold. Richard: You hand is cold, Preston. Burke: I have cold hands. (Derek and Richard look at the X-rays) Richard: The bllet could be lodged in the brachial plexus. That's dangerous. Derek: Yes, very dangerous. Burke: My hands are always cold. Richard: We'll have to do an angiogram. Derek: Yeah. Burke: I'm always cold. (Burke's monitor starts beeping) Derek: Trachea's deviated to the right! Richard: Absent breath sound on the right side! Lets go! Lets go! Lets go! Derek: 14 gage angio Richard: Gotta hurry! Derek: Dr. Burke? Dr. Burke? You gotta stay with me now. There you go. That's it. There you go! You're all right. Right here. Right here. Your lung collapsed. You're ok. You're ok now. (Mercy West, Alex in on the phone with Meredith) Alex: He's been sht? Dude. Meredith: We're gonna have to run these tests ourselves. Alex: UNOS gave us an hour. In a couple of minutes, our time is up. I'm telling you, this chick is hardcore. She's not gonna wait. Meredith: Ok, well, you just have to stall her. Alex: I'm not getting involved with this. Look I don't care if that drawling bedridden whiner ever gets a heart. Meredith: Alex. Do this. For Izzie. Alex: I'm not guaranteeing anything. (Camille's room) Natalie: So...was it totally romantic? Claire: Yeah, before...the pain and the paramedics and everything? Camille: Ok, so...you know that feeling when you look into someone's eyes and you're totally comfortable and you aren't self-conscious and everything just...is, like, perfect? Addison: Camille, have you had any symptoms, um...any abdominal pain? Nausea? Anything? Claire: No, she's been fine. Addison: You haven't been fine, have you? Camille: No, not for, like, a month or so. Natalie: You've been feeling sick for a month? Camille: I wanted to go to prom. I, I...I didn't want to be the girl with cancer, again. Claire: You're not. She's not, right? (Addison walks up to Adele) Addison: Hey. Adele: Oh. I was just trying to remember the night I lost my virginity. And I can't. I remember who it was with and I remember I was 18, but...I can't remember any of the details. Addison: I can remember all of the details. Kind of wish I couldn't. Adele: That bad? Addison: No, just not good. Good came later. And then really good came. Adele: That little girl in there's just getting started. She hasn't even seen what good is yet. Please. Addison. Tell me she's going to have a chance to see what the good stuff is. (Addison doesn't say anything but from the look on her face you can tell the answer is no) Adele: Oh. Addison: I'm so sorry, Adele. (Denny's room) Izzie: How's his heart looking? Cristina: His left ventricle's sht and he's barely pushing blood out. Izzie: I'm sorry. I know that you're worried about Burke. Cristina: You know, whatever. It's fine. Izzie: Cristina, can't you just try to understand? I love him. Cristina: You don't even know him. Izzie: I do know him. Cristina: No. You've never even seem him outside the four walls of this hospital. You don't know him. Izzie: I know him. Maybe I don't live with him or work with him like you do with Burke, but I do know him. And there's...there's possibility here. And given the choice of running or staying... Cristina: You should run. A sane person, a person who values her career and everything she's worked for, a person who values her own heart, for God's sake...that person would run. Denny: A sane person...would marry me. Izzie: What? What did you say? What did he say? He said marry me? He said marry me, right? George: He did. Izzie: Denny. Wake up. Denny. (Monitor starts beeping loudly) George: What's happening? Izzie: I'm pumping harder. I don't know. Meredith: He's flatline. Cristina: No, no, no. He's not flatline. There's movement in his heart. Ok, um, uh, lets shock him. Uh, charge the defibrillator. Izzie: Ventilate George! George: I am. Izzie: Charging to 200! Cristina: You got it? Izzie: Yeah. Clear. (Mercy West) Erica: Is Dr. Burke alive? Alex: Yes. Erica: Shame. He'd probably have made a good donor. (To her team) Ok, people, let's get our organs and get out of here. Alex: Hey! That heart is not yours yet. Seattle Grace is still waiting for test results. Erica: Well, I'm not. Ten blade. Alex: You can't do that. Erica: I just did. (Richard walks down a set of stairs into the waiting room, which is full of teenagers dressed in their prom attire.) Richard: Girls. Claire: Um, I called Jillian. Natalie: And I called Tessa. Claire: And then they called Simon and Bianca and Deborah. Richard: Girls... Natalie: It's her prom, Dr. Webber. She can't miss her whole prom! So...we, like, brought it to her. Richard: (Loudly) Kids! Kids! Listen up. Look, I know you wanted to see Camille. Why don't you come back tomorrow? During the day. In smaller groups. (Quietly) Look, I'm sorry, girls. I can't have a bunch of teenagers running in the hallways. People are sick. People are d... Claire: Dying? Yeah, we know. (Burke's room) Derek: How're you doing? Burke: I'm developing numbness in my...fourth and fifth fingers. Derek: And there's a pseudo-aneurysm in the subclavian artery. You know the drill. Wait a few days, maybe the aneurysm won't grow. Burke: Yeah, if...if it stays this size, there's too much damage. Derek: We'll just go in there and we'll fix it. Relieve the compression on the nerves. Burke: But the operation could cause damage to the nerves. Derek: Yes. Burke: And I could...lose function of the entire arm. Derek: Yes. Burke: You can do this? You're good enough to do this? Derek: I think so. Burke: But you're not sure. Derek: But I'm not sure. Burke: So...what do I do? Derek: It's not like you to ask those kind of questions. Burke: It's not like you not to have the answers. (Adele walks up to Richard who is standing at the nurse's station) Adele: How dare you send those kids away? Richard: Adele. Please. You're emotional. Ok? Adele: I just told my sister her baby's cancer is back. You're damn right, I'm emotional. If you don't want to bend your precious rules for Camille, fine. Don't do it for her. Do it for me. Do it for your wife who never asks you for anything. Who says nothing about your long hours. Who looks the other way while you have an affair with another woman. Who sobered you up when that woman left you. Who stayed with you when everyone, everyone said I would be better off alone. I'm not asking you, I'm telling you, you're going to make this up to Camille. You're gonna prioritize the needs of your family above those of your other patients. Or...you're going to find a new place to sleep. (Derek is walking through the hall, Addison walks up behind him.) Addison: Derek. Derek: Not now, Addison. Addison: Derek. Derek: Not now. (Derek enters a dark conference room) Richard: There's never a good place to hide in this hospital. Derek: I'm trying to get perspective. Everything feels enormous. Like it's all just...I ...I can't get perspective. Richard: My niece's cancer has come back. She's 17 years old and she's going to die. Plus...25 years ago, I had a secret affair with...Ellis Grey. And today, I find out that my wife knew the entire time. There was no...secret. And she stayed with me. Derek: Hmm. I respect him, you know? Dr. Burke...I...I respect him. He's decent. He's honorable. An arrogant ass who just hogs the OR but thinks he's God, but...he's decent and he's honorable. I respect him. He's one of the foremost cardiothoracic surgeons in the country and I've gotta just...it's his hand. I cannot get perspective. I can't do this. I can't be responsible for it. Richard: Preston's an honorable and decent man, but, Derek, so are you. You are honorable and decent. And you're too honorable and decent to run. (Looks at his coffee cup) You don't know how much I wish this was bourbon. (Burke's room, Bailey enters) Bailey: Anything I can get for you, Dr. Burke? Burke: No. I'm fine. Bailey: Um, there...there must be something. Burke: It would be nice...to have some ice chips. And a touch of morphine if I'm allowed. And, uh...Cristina. Bailey: Coming right up. Where is Cristina? Where are...where are all of the suck-ups? Burke: Excuse me? Bailey: My interns. My ass kissing, surgery-hungry, competitive suck-ups. Where are they? Why aren't they here fetching you ice chips and morphine? Why aren't they here sucking up? You know something. Burke: I'm a patient. Bailey: Preston Xavier Burke...what have you done with my suck-ups? (Denny's room) Izzie: What do we do? What do we do? Meredith: I'm starting dopamine and dobutamine drips. We can use those together, right? What about milrinone? Izzie: I don't know. Cristina: You know, none of us do. Just start the dobutamine and dopamine. George: What about...what about...gluceratide? That might help. Denny: I feel like my chest is running away. Meredith: His heart rate's 217. Izzie: He's in SVT. Cristina: No, no. Izzie, stop pumping. Stop. George: No, there's no change. Meredith: We need that medicine? Izzie: What medicine? Meredith: I'll know it when I see it. George: I think...the one that stops the heart. Here hold the mask. Denny: No. The whole point is to keep my heart beating. Izzie: No, no, no. It only stops it for six seconds. George: Meredith, it's adenosine. Cristina: Uh, his heart is speeding up! Guys! Izzie: You guys! We have to do something! He cannot take this for much longer. George: What about shocking him? Meredith: Found it! George: Cristina, come over here. Lift up his arm. The nurses always lift the arm when they push adenosine. It gets to the heart faster. Izzie: Ok, Denny. You're gonna feel, um... Denny: Izzie! Izzie: No, it's ok. It's ok. It just feels like... Denny: I'm gonna die. Izzie: You're not gonna die, I promise. It's the meds. Cristina: Yeah, we're heading back to flatline. Are you sure we used the right drugs? George: The book said it was right. Meredith: I used the one I know. Izzie: He's not going to die, right? Right? Right? (Flatline for six seconds then heart begins beating again. Bailey enters) Bailey: You fools better have a good explanation for this. Step away from the patient. (Everyone steps back except Izzie) Step away from the patient. Izzie: I can't. I have to pump his heart. (Bailey notices the cut LVAD wire) Bailey: Olivia, take over for Dr. Stevens. Izzie, you're done here. I need you to leave the room. Olivia: Izzie... Izzie: No! Do not touch me! Bailey: Olivia, stay with Dr. Stevens. Help her if she'll let you. You three. Outside. Now! Where was rational thought? Where was cognitive thinking? First do no harm? The morals, the ethics? Where was sanity when you three decided to help that girl? Meredith: We didn't... Bailey: No, no. No speaking. Nobody speaks. I do not want to have to testify against any of you in a court of law. Not one word. She cut his LVAD wire. (George clears his throat) Look, I said no speaking! George: I didn't say anything! Bailey: Then no moving! Cristina. Burke is asking for you. Go! I'm assuming you ran labs? I'm asking a question. Answer me! Meredith: You said no speak... Bailey: I know what I said. Meredith: Yes. Bailey: O'Malley, get me the lab results. Do not pass go. Do not even talk to another living soul. Get the labs! Get back here! Grey...come with me. (Cristina is standing outside of Burke's room) Cristina: How are you? You look good. Are those your films? Oh, Burke... Burke: Shepherd, uh, doesn't know if he can fix my hand. Maybe I'll wait it out. See if this numbness subsides. Cristina: Yeah. Burke: Or I could let Shepherd operate. Cristina: Yeah. Yeah. Burke: I could lose all hand function. What if I can never operate again? Cristina: Yeah. Burke: Cristina: Cristina: Yeah. Burke: Stop saying yeah. Cristina: Ok. Burke: I need...I need...you said you were here. For me. Cristina: Yeah. Oh, sorry. Burke: Cristina. Cristina: Hmm? Burke: I need you to tell me...what you think I should do. Cristina: I...I...I told Dr. Bailey that I would be back. Ok? I...I told her that I wouldn't be long. Burke: Cristina... Cristina: I'm...I'm...I'm...going to think about it. I mean...I'm going to think about it. Ok? (Cristina enters a dark closet. She just stands there breathing deeply.) (Denny's room) Bailey: How you feeling Denny? Denny: Really, really good. Like an athlete or a superhero. Or some other kind of really healthy person. Izzie: You're funny. You're a funny guy. Meredith: Izzie. No speaking. Denny: I cut my own LVAD wires, you know? I went rogue. All by myself. Bailey: Shush. You're weak enough as it is. Please don't waste energy on lying. (Cristina enters the room) Izzie: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: I did indeed say no speaking. Izzie: I don't care! He's gonna get the heart right? You're gonna sign the charts and talk to the transplant coordinator? (George enters the room) George: Here are the labs. Izzie: See? See, his BUN and creatinine are increasing. He clearly has pulmonary edema. He deserves to move up to 1-A status on the transplant list. UNOS will give him the heart. You just have to call. Bailey: Isobel Stevens, I take my medical advice from doctors. You are a visitor. Izzie: What? Bailey: As of now, you are a visitor in this hospital. You will not be a doctor in this hospital again until I decide you are. Olivia, take over the heart pump. Izzie: He gets the heart though, right? (Bailey walks up to Richard who is standing at a nurse's station.) Bailey: Sir? Uh, I need to ask you a hypothetical question. Richard: Can we do this another time? Bailey: Uh, if someone on the staff deliberately unhooked a transplant candidate from his LVAD in an attempt to worsen his condition and get him moved up on the donor list...? Hypothetically, sir. Richard: I think you need to tell me exactly what's going on here, Dr. Bailey: Believe me, sir, you want this to stay a hypothetical. Because I'm thinking if something like that did happen, you'd be duty bound to report it and the hospital would be in danger of losing its accreditation as a transplant site. Richard: So hypothetically? Bailey: Hypothetically, if the patient got worse, would it be unethical for him to receive the heart even though, medically, his worsened condition now puts him at the top of the donor list? Hypothetically? Richard: How bad is he? Bailey: In the few hours it would take a new LVAD to be delivered, he'll be dad. Richard: Our responsibility is to the patient. If, medically, he's at the top of the list, then he should get the heart. Hypothetically. Bailey: Thank you, sir. (she starts to walk away) Richard: But practically? Whoever removed the patient from the LVAD, I expect to be given names and there will be severe, severe consequences. Bailey: Yes, sir. (Mercy West, Dr. Hahn is walking down the hall carrying a cooler. She passes Alex who is on the phone.) Alex: Wait. Hold on. Dr. Hahn? Dr. Hahn! Erica: Can't stop now, Karev. I only have a few hours to get this heart into my guy. Alex: Dr. Hahn. (She stops, and has a knowing look on her face.) Erica: UNOS gave the heart to Seattle Grace. Alex: The transplant coordinator already called and stopped your guy from being prepped. Erica: Oh, come on! He has kids. They're four and five. Do you know how long he's been waiting for this? He's a good person. He deserves a heart. Alex: I'm sorry. Erica: I'll bet you are. Alex: No. I am. Believe me. (She hands Alex the heart.) Alex: Listen, we have a chopper waiting on the roof. Erica: And? (Seattle scenes) (Burke's room, Derek is there) Derek: You could take up fishing. Burke: I don't fish. Derek: Fishing's a lot more fun than surgery. Burke: I have 80 percent hand function now. Derek: Hmm. 80 percent's not enough. Not for you. Burke: Fishing, huh? Derek: You don't fish. (Roof of SGH, the chopper lands and Erica gets out with Alex. SGH hallway, Izzie is escorting Denny through the hall. Bailey gives her a nasty look and he enters the OR area. Burke is going into surgery.) Burke: Shepherd. Derek: You don't have to thank me. I'm sure you'll return the favor one day. Burke: I was going to say, please try not to kll me. (Everyone in the OR laughs) Derek: I'll do my best. Burke: Ok. (Denny's OR. Dr. Hahn is performing the transplant.) Erica: Hmm. Look at that thing. (She lifts out Denny's heart) Alex: Left ventricle's excessively dilated. Bailey: He wouldn't have lasted another hour with this heart. Erica: No, he wouldn't have. (Burke's OR) Derek: Ok, retract that little bit right there. Ok, I am now removing the aneurysm from the nerve cluster. Doctor: NAPs are dropping. Intern: Arterial pressure's down 50 percent. Richard: Did you cut the nerve root? Derek: I don't see any discontinuity of the nerves. All right, lets do a, um, reflex test on his hand. Chief. Richard: Ok. Nothing. Derek: Damn it. Try it again. Richard: Uh-uh. Derek: This doesn't make sense. I'd know if I severed a nerve. Richard: Derek, is the arm paralyzed? Derek: I have to do a wake-up test. Richard: Derek. Derek: There's only one person who can help me figure out whether or not I've damaged the relay or not, and that's Burke. Richard: He's been through a lot of trauma today. Derek: I'm trying to prevent the trauma he's going to feel if I have to tell him he's paralyzed. (George, Cristina, Izzie and Meredith are sitting on the floor below the OR board.) George: Bailey's treating us like we're children. We're not children. We shouldn't have to sit out here like we're on a time out, or something. Meredith: It is a time out. What we did is way in need of a time out. Cristina: You realize we could get kicked out of the program for this? Izzie: Not we. I did this. I did this. And you're probably right. Maybe I should run. But I'd rather be running towards somebody than running away. (Richard walks into the hall) Richard: Yang? Shepherd's asking for you. Cristina: Uh, for Burke's surgery? Richard: Yes. Hurry up. Cristina: Uh...I-I can't. I'm...I'm in a time out. Richard: Time out's over. Right now. Cristina: Yes, sir. Richard: Yang, we need you. (Richard and Cristina walk off) Izzie: He said marry me, right? He did? That really happened? George: It really happened. ' Meredith: It really did. Izzie: Screw this. I'm checking on Denny. (Izzie walks off) (Burke's OR) Derek: Ok. How we doing? Doctor: He's just at the edge of consciousness. Very light. He should be up soon. Derek: Ok. Yang? You're up. Cristina: Oh...what? I'm sorry. What do you need me to do? Derek: When he comes to he's doing to be disoriented and he's probably gonna fight the intubation. We can't numb the arm because we need him to move his fingers. So, he's gonna be in a lot of pain. So we need you to keep him focused, ok? Cristina: Ok. Yeah. Derek: Ok, let's, let's wake him up. Cristina: Burke? (George and Meredith are still sitting in the hallway.) Meredith: Thank you. For calling me about Izzie. George: Hey, I didn't do you any favors. Meredith: Well, it meant something that you called. It meant something to me. George: It didn't mean anything. Meredith: Right. Ok. Sorry. George: Stop saying that you're sorry! You want to know something? I knew. I knew you didn't feel that way about me. Even during...when we were in bed, I knew. I knew and I still let it happen. Because...um...I...I figured that one night with you was better than never. So will you just stop saying that you're sorry cause you didn't know any better. But I did. And...I'm sorry. (They look at each other) George: I'm sorry, Meredith. (Burke's OR) Cristina: Burke, it's Cristina. I'm sorry. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Burke. Baby, wake up. Do it for me. Open your eyes. Hi! (He starts fighting) Derek: Get ready. Get ready. Hold him down. Calm him down. Richard: Yang! Derek: Cristina, get in there. Get in his face. Talk to him, Cristina. Richard: Yang! Derek: Get in there. Hold him down. Hold him down. Calm him down. Cristina. (Denny's OR) Erica: Scissors. Alex: It's beautiful work, Dr. Hahn. Erica: The hard part is still to come. All right, let's start taking him off bypass. See if this heart will bat on it's own. Bailey: Nothing. Erica: All right come on, Denny. bat for me. (Burke's OR) Derek: Cristina! Hold him down, Chief. Hold his arm. Preston? Preston, look at me. Look at me. Right here. Listen, listen. Calm down. Calm down. Calm down. Listen, there was a complication. We can fix it. We need you to move your fingers on your right side. Can you do that? Come on, you can do this. Look at me. Look at me. On your right hand. Ok? I know, I know. It's just you and me. We can do this. Ok. Come on. Focus. Focus. Now you're going to move your fingers on your right hand. Can you do that? Come on, Preston. You can do it. Move your fingers. Move your fingers. Come on. Come on. Come on, come on, come on, come on. (Denny's OR) Bailey: No response. Charge to 20. Erica: Clear. Come on. Come on. Come on. (Alex looks up and sees Izzie in the gallery) (Burke's OR, he is still coughing.) (Denny's OR, Erica is still massaging the heart.) Erica: Come on (Burke's OR, still focused on his hand) (Denny's OR, Izzie watching intently from the gallery)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x26 - Deterioration of the Fight or Flight Response"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 2x27: Losing My Religion Original Airdate: 5/15/2006 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Mark Tinker (Burke's OR, still focused on his hand) (Denny's OR, Izzie watching intently from the gallery) (Burke's OR) Derek: Come on. Come on, come on. Come on. Good. That's good. You're doing good, Dr. Burke. Ok, I need you to touch each finger of your right hand to your thumb. One. Two. You're doing great. Keep going. Three. (Burke looks up to see Cristina standing over him, she walks away.) Richard: One more. Derek: That's good. (Denny's OR) Bailey: Dr. Hahn... Erica: Wait for it. Bailey: Dr. Hahn? He... Erica: Just wait! (All of a sudden the heart starts beating) Erica: And that's how we raise the dad in Erica Land. Bailey: Good job, Denny. (Alex looks up, Izzie is gone. The camera switches to the gallery where she is sitting on the floor, crying. Burke is being wheeled out of surgery, Cristina watches him wheel by. Derek comes out of the OR and goes to sit down at a nurse's station. He looks up and sees Meredith still sitting on the floor.) (Camille's room. Adele is speaking with a woman who just entered the room. Richard is standing in the hallway nearby watching on, Addison walks up.) Addison: Hey. Camille's parents here? Richard: Yes. There aren't any options? Addison: I could do a hysterectomy and ovarectomy, and pick out the remaining ovaries. I mean, we could try chemo, maybe radiation, but the cancer's spread. To her liver, her lungs, her bowel. Even if we were aggressive... Richard: No. Addison: I hate this. I never get used to telling someone their kid's going to drop dad before she's 18. Oh, damn it. I'm sorry. I didn't...I'm not usually this insensitive, Richard, I just...it's just been one of those days. I'm sorry. Richard: It's ok. Addison: I'm gonna go...I mean, do you want to go in? Richard: Oh, no, you go. They'd rather hear it from the treating physician. I got work to get back to. Deal with this Denny Duquette situation. Addison: Ok. (Addison enters the room. Richard stands in the hall and watches as she delivers the bad news. Adele looks up and sees Richard in the hall. Adele closes the door to the room.) (Seattle Scenes) (SGH conference room, the interns are all standing there.) Izzie: I cut the LVAD wire. Meredith: Actually, I cut the LVAD wire. George: No. I did it. I'm the one who cut the wire. (George nudges Cristina) Cristina: Fine. I cut the LVAD wire. Alex: I didn't do anything. I'm totally innocent. Meredith: Alex! Alex: I wasn't even here. He knows I wasn't here. You think he doesn't know that? The guy's not mentlly challenged. George: That's not the point. What about loyalty? Cristina: We made a an agreement. (They all begin arguing) Richard: People! I know who did this. So, you might as well come clean. I know. George: With all due respect, sir, if you knew, you wouldn't be asking us. Izzie: I did what... Meredith: You have your suspicions, but you don't actually know. Cristina: Not for sure. George: And you can't do anything to any of us without proof, sir. Richard: Well, one of you compromised a patient's life. One of you stole an organ. One of you jeopardized the integrity of this hospital and of UNOS. Now, you tell me, and you tell me right now! All right, fine. No surgeries. Cristina: Sir? Richard: You heard what I said. No surgeries. No one scrubs in, no one watches from the gallery, no one so much as goes near the OR floor. Until someone confesses, the five of you will share a single patient: Camille Travis. Whatever she wants, the five of you will provide it! Whatever she wants. Now, get the hell out of my sight! George: Wow, he didn't say we were fired. Cristina: He might as well have. No surgeries? Meredith: That wasn't bad. We got off easy. Cristina: Yeah, for now. You think this is over? George: I could really use a good come right now. A nice, long coma. Cristina: You know, there's only been three careers I've ever wanted. Ruler of my own planet, Wonder Woman, or a surgeon. And I don't see any invisible planes or extra countries lying around. Izzie: I will go back and tell him. I will tell him it was me. Meredith: And get kicked out of the program? You will keep your mouth shut. We all will keep our mouths shut. Alex: This is crap. I'm turning her in. Meredith: Alex. Alex: What? You were the one who said we had to stand by Izzie. But now I get stuck catering some V.I.P. chick patient? I don't think so. Izzie: Alex, I am sorry and I really do appreciate what you did for Denny. Alex: Oh, shut up. Look, the only reason I lied to Burke is because I wanted in on that transplant surgery. I don't care about Denny and I hope you get thrown out on your ass. Cristina: Hey! We stick together. You know, we all did this. Nobody's a victim. We...we stick together. (Meredith and Izzie give Cristina strange looks) Damn it. Izzie: Thank you. Cristina: You're welcome. George: We can handle this. Camille Travis is a kid with cancer. So, we give her whatever she wants for a couple days. How hard can that be? (Bailey walks up with Claire and Natalie.) Bailey: Harder than you might think. This is Claire and Natalie. Camille Travis' friends. Claire: Her very best friends in the whole wide world. Bailey: Girls, who exactly is Camille Travis? Natalie: Like, the Chief of Surgery's niece. Bailey: And girls, what does the Chief of Surgery's niece want, exactly? Natalie: Like, a prom. Claire: No. Like, the best prom ever. (George and Alex are in the conference room with Claire and Natalie. Meredith and Cristina are standing outside in the hall.) Claire: We need a theme. George: Theme... Natalie: Ooh! Ooh! Can we have sparkly lights? Because sparkly lights are amazing! Cristina: I didn't like teenage girls when I was a teenage girl. Meredith: I wore a lot of black. Cristina: Oh! Meredith: Hmm. I had the whole angry pink hair thing going on. I wouldn't have been caught dad at a prom. Cristina: Oh, my mother made me go. My date barfed on my dress and then tried to feel me up. Mmm-hmm. Meredith: There's a lot to be said for being an adult. Cristina: Yeah. Meredith: You haven't mentioned Burke. Cristina: No. Meredith: Well, have you checked on him? Cristina: No. Meredith: Ok, I could try harder to make you open up and share and deal with the Burke thing, or I could be neurotic and selfish and talk about me and my problems. Which would be more supportive right now? Cristina: Selfish and neurotic, please. Meredith: Hmm. Finn says Doc's in pain. And Derek and I have to talk about whether we should put him to sleep or not. Which is...And Finn thinks there's something going on between me and Derek. Which there is not. There so clearly is not. And Addison having that whole meltdown? Cristina: Ugh. Meredith: I mean, dogs get sick and we're expected to put them to sleep. People get sick, we don't put them down. We don't just give up on people. There's nothing going on between me and Derek. Cristina: There is a lot to be said for being an adult. Meredith: Yeah. (Denny's room, Izzie is in the hallway, cautiously considering going in. She takes her hair down then steps into the doorway.) Izzie: Is Bailey around? Denny: No, she was in here earlier. Said she'd be back in a couple of hours. The coast is clear. Izzie: You look...God, you look amazing. They always tell you transplant patients rebound fast, but, you know, to see it in person... Denny: I have warm hands. I've never had warm hands because of my circulation. (He holds his hand out) Feel. (Izzie takes his hand) Warm hands and check it out, I have a regular heartbeat. Izzie: Yes, you do. I should, um...I got to go. I would stay, but if Bailey catches me here, she'd...And, uh, you know, the Chief has us doing this prom thing. It's so...But, yeah, I'm really happy for you. You look...Whoo-hoo, Denny. Ok. I'm going to go. Denny: What? Izzie: Huh? Denny: You like your men sick and feeble? You don't dig healthy guys? Izzie: I...I dig you. Denny: Then why are you all swirly and twitchy? Izzie: No, I'm not. Denny: Yeah, you're swirly and twitchy. (Izzie giggles) It's because I asked you to marry me. Izzie: So you remember that? Denny: It's not the kind of thing I'd forget. Izzie: Yeah. Look, Denny, um...I'm giving you an out. Denny: Excuse me? Izzie: Well, I'm giving you an out. I mean, you thought you were dying, and I was saving your life, and you know, everything was so...So I won't hold it against you, or...be hurt or offended if you wanna take your proposal back. I'm giving you an out. Denny: I don't want an out. Izzie: You should take the out. We can't get married. I mean, that would be crazy. Insane. We should date and have sex. Plenty of sex. You know? When you heart gets better, and you're out of the hospital, all the sex you can handle. But marriage is, um...Marriage. I mean... Denny: Ok. It's my turn now. Izzie: But I need to... Denny: No, no, no. We're taking turns. I've decided it's polite and it keeps me from yelling. When it's you turn again, you can talk. For five years, I've had to live by the choices of my doctors. The guys that cut me open...decided my life. There wasn't one choice that was mine. And now I have this heart that beats and works. I get to be like everybody else. I get to make my own decisions, have my own life, do whatever the damn hell I choose. Now, here's the good part, so you listen close. What I choose is you. You're who I want to make up with and go to bed with and do everything in between with. I get a choice now. I get to choose. I choose you Izzie Stevens. Ok. It's your turn again. (Izzie runs out of the room) (Richard and Bailey are standing at a nurse's station.) Richard: They're not talking. Bailey: Wagons have been circled. Richard: I need answers. Somebody's gotta take responsibility. Bailey: I can tell you what I think happened, what I assumed happened. But they're the only ones that know it. Richard: I wanna meet with each of them separately. I will break them. Bailey: Ok. (She starts to walk off) Richard: You have your dress for the prom? Bailey: Excuse me? Richard: I'm going to the prom. If I have to go, everybody has to go. Bailey: What? I'm a grown woman. Richard: (Loudly) Everybody goes to the prom! Everybody! (Conference room where Alex and George are still listening to Claire and Natalie discuss prom preparations.) Claire: Central High? Two years ago, they went with all black and they had like purple lights and... Natalie: Yeah, I remember that. And everybody looked like ghouls. Claire: Fine, we could go with all white. Because I was reading Elle Girl and they were saying... (Alex starts moaning and groaning) George: Are you having a seizure? Alex: Will that get me out of here? Fine, let's go with seizure. Because seizure beats the hell out of a 45-minute conversation about what color balloons we're gonna buy. For the love of God. You people need to get a life. George: Chief's niece. Chief's niece. Claire: It's ok. The hot ones are always mean. It's like a rule or something. Natalie: Doesn't he remind you of Nate Sims? Claire: Totally. He's totally Nate. You're Nate. Alex: No, I'm not Nate. George: Don't engage. Natalie: Nate broke up with Camille the first time she had cancer. Claire: That's the other thing about the hot ones: they're usually cowards. Natalie: Don't you dare try to judge us for trying to make our friend, who just happens to be dying of cancer, happy. The color does matter. Maybe not to you. But it does matter. (George, Meredith Cristina and Alex are talking to Bailey, who is standing at a nurse's station.) George: Not to bother you, but... Bailey: What? One of you better spit out the problem right now! Alex: The problem is the colors and the balloons and the "Under the Sea." "No, it's Titanic." "Hey, let's go with Tears in Heaven." "No, it's too morbid." "It should be pink." "It should be red." "It should be a freaking rainbow." George: What he's saying is that we're very, very hopeful that you speak teenage girl. (Back in the conference room) Bailey: Silver and white. It's mystical and magical, without being over the top. Ever see fashion week in New York? Lots of silver and white runways and backdrops. That's because no matter what color the clothes are, they pop. Natalie: They pop? Bailey: They pop? Claire: Sounds good. Natalie: Yeah. Bailey: O'Malley and Karev, get 500 balloons in silver and white and 100 in black. Shiny black, not the matte. Yang, stick with Camille, keep her happy, keep her spirits up. Make sure she has her shoes, dress and makeup on standby. Grey, get with Patricia. Make sure we can rope off the second-floor nurses' station and the waiting area. And get some catering menus. Got it? Oh, no, no. You don't get to look at me like that. No, you compromised my medical license. You nearly k*lled a patient, lied to the Chief of Surgery, and made me, your resident look bad. We're gonna do this prom and we're doing it right. Move! (On-call room, George, Alex and Izzie are inflating balloons.) George: Uh, there's an emergency appendectomy happening in OR 1, right now, as we speak. Izzie: Again, I'm sorry. Alex: Stop saying you're sorry when you're not. You make me sick. (Alex leaves as Callie enters) George: Nice. Callie: Hey. George: Hey. Callie: Um, can we talk? George: Yeah. (Hands Izzie a balloon) Hold it. (George is now in the hall with Callie.) George: Hey. Callie: You never called. George: What? Callie: Last night. We had plans and you went off with Izzie and you never called. You said you would. George: Yeah, a lot of stuff went down last night. Callie: Yeah, I know. I heard, everybody heard. So what exactly happened? George: I can't talk about it. Callie: Oh, come on. I'm not going to tell, George. It's me. George: Look, it's Vegas. What happened in that room stays in that room. Callie: Ok. Yeah, I get it. George: Hey. Do you want to go to prom with me? Callie: No, George. No, I don't want to go to prom with you. (Callie walks off and George goes back into the on-call room) Izzie: What was that about? George: She said she loved me. Izzie: Oh. Oh. (Meredith is in the hallway and turns a corner and runs into Finn.) Meredith: Oh! Hey. Finn: I've been calling you cell all night? Meredith: Um...oh, well, uh, it's a long story, which essentially ends with me inviting you to a prom. Finn: An actual prom? A...corsages and tuxedos? Meredith: Yeah, I know it's stupid, but... Finn: No. I'm in. I loved prom. I mean, I don't want to brag or anything, but I was crowned king. Meredith: Really? You were that kid in high school? Finn: What is wrong with being that kid? Meredith: Nothing. It's very cute, actually. Finn: Hello. Meredith: Hi. What are you doing here? Finn: Doc had some seizures last night. Pretty serious. The cancer spread to his brain. I'm sorry. (Derek is standing in front of the OR board, Addison walks up to him.) Addison: Hey. Derek: Hey. Addison: How's Preston? Derek: He's recovering nicely. Addison... Addison: I don't want to talk about it. Derek: All right. Addison: I mean we've come so far. You forgave me for Mark and we're trying. Derek: We are. Addison: We are trying. Derek: We're trying. Addison: And I was jealous when there was no need to be. Right? Derek: Addison? Addison: What? Derek: Will you go to the prom with me? (They smile at each other) (Burke's room, he is looking at his hand. It has a tremor. Cristina walks up to the window outside the room. His hand has another tremor. He looks up and sees her standing outside.) (Conference room, where the chief is "grilling" each of the interns.) Alex: I went to college on a wresting scholarship. I played baseball, some basketball, but you know we'll go with football... Richard: What the hell does football have to do with who cut the LVAD wires? Alex: Let's say you were drafter to a team that wasn't your first pick. You know, you don't like the players. You hate the way they play the game. You even think the quarterback is full of crap. Now the quarterback's a pain in the ass that you don't owe a damn thing to, but...it's your team. You don't quit. You don't talk to the press. You don't bitch to the coach. You just...you just go out there every Sunday and you make the blocks and you take the hits and you play to win. You show up and you suit up and you play. Because it's your freaking team. Richard: I know your type. You're a surgical junkie. (The camera flips back to look at the intern and Cristina is not sitting there.) Cristina: Yes, sir. Richard: I'm just saying, it's not going to be easy for you to be away from the OR that long. Cristina: No, sir. Richard: And if you want to get back to the OR, you're gonna tell me what I want to know. Aren't ya? Cristina: You're right. It's not easy for me to be away from the OR. It's not easy for me to sit in front of you, or any other authority figure for that matter and not be able to give you the exact answer you want to hear. I'm the one with the answers. I've always been the one with the answers. But right now, sir, I don't have any. Richard: Dr. Yang... Cristina: How do you keep your edge, sir? Because I watch you. And you've been doing this a long time. You're clean and your focused. You are the job. Nothing gets to you. And the thing is, sir. I was like that. Until I got here. Until I actually started doing this job and now everything is...is fuzzy. Richard: That's besides the point. Cristina: No, see, sir, this is the point. Because I can't tell you. What happened in that room...I can't tell you. And before, I could have. No guilt, no loyalties, no problem. Before...before I wouldn't have even been in that room. I wouldn't have gotten involved. I would have never frozen in surgery. And I would have told him what I thought he should do. I had an edge, sir. I had an edge and I've lost it. And I need it. I need it back. (Tears in her voice) So if you could just tell me how you keep yours and how not to be affected, I know I could be a great surgeon. So, if you could just give me the answers, I would really appreciate it. (A tear streams down her face) Richard: You're excused, Dr. Yang. Cristina: But... Richard: You're excused. Cristina: I'll tell you who cut the LVAD wires, sir, if you could just please... Richard: No, you won't. I don't want to know. Not from you. Yeah, I have the answers, but I can't tell them to you. I'm not going to be responsible for you becoming less human. (Izzie is now in the room) Izzie: I'm a pretty girl. Richard: What? Izzie: I'm not being arrogant. It's just...it's just kind of a fact. For a long time, I made a career from my looks, so I get it. I'm a pretty girl. And not in a "from-a-certain-angle" way. In an obvious way. It's the blonde thing. And the big boobs thing. Big boobs are key to "obvious" pretty, if you know what I'm saying. Richard: Dr. Stevens... Izzie: It's how men see me. I'm not a smart girl or an interesting girl. I'm a pretty girl. The blonds and the boobs, it confuse guys into thinking that I'm someone else. And I'm used to it. I'm used to them walking away when they realize...but then Denny goes and asks me to marry him. Richard: Is that why you cut the wires? Izzie: He doesn't make me feel like I'm a pretty girl. He makes me feel like...like me. I think he might know me. And so, if I did cut the LVAD wire, and I'm not saying that I did, but if I did...then no. I don't feel guilty. And I know that I should. And I would if it were anybody else. But I can't feel anything but happy. (George is now sitting there) George: Are you gonna...say anything or...? I'm not gonna break. I'm starting to get a little freaked out, but I'm not gonna break. It's not because I don't care. Cause I do care what you think about me. I do...care. I just can't tell you what you want to hear. Which seems to be a theme in my life right now. Just cause you can't say something doesn't mean you don't want to. You can want to very much. You can be with a person and be happy with them, and not love them. And you can love someone and not want to be with them. You don't need to...love someone...to want them. But it's frustrating. You know, when you brain tells you what you want and what you actually want don't match up, it's exhausting. And...well, it's complicated. But that's life. And life...sucks. (Meredith is now sitting there) Richard: I've known you for a long time. I know your mother and father. And I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you did not cut those LVAD wires. Meredith, I need you to tell me who did it. Meredith: I've been going over this and over this in my mind trying to piece this together. It was you. You were the reason my parents broke up. And it wasn't just an affair. She really loved you. It wasn't just this cheap thing where she didn't tell you she was married. It wasn't all a lie. She left her husband for you. But you stayed with your wife because it was the right thing to do. Maybe safe, but she was the right person for you to be with. And let's face it, my mother? Nothing wrong with being safe. Being with the good buy because he's good. And we are talking about forever here. You've never regretted your decision. You've never looked back. Right? (Meredith opens a door to a waiting room where Derek is sitting in a chair) Meredith: Finn says we need to make a decision about Doc. Derek: Good for Finn. Meredith: Can we just do this? Derek: Fine. Meredith: I think, we may have to put him to sleep. Derek: Whatever. Meredith: Can we just do this one thing together without arguing? What if there's a chance he can get better? Derek: He's not going to get better. You know that. Meredith: Well, Finn things we should do it today, then. So I guess I'll go over there. Be there. Derek: What time? Meredith: Are you coming? Derek: He's my dog. (Izzie runs into Denny's room. Bailey is in there.) Izzie: Denny! Bailey: What did I tell you? Visiting hours aren't for another hour. You are no longer his doctor. You wanna see Denny, you come back when the visitors come. Izzie: I would, but I can't wait. Denny: Ixnay on the insubordinationay. Izzie: But it's my turn. Bailey: If the Chief finds out you were even on this floor... Denny: Hold on. It's her turn. Izzie: Yes. My answer is yes. Denny: Oh, now see, you're going to make my heart stop beating and it's brand new. (Izzie walks over to Denny) Bailey: I will call security on you. Izzie: Ok. I will come back during visiting hours. And it's prom, so I'll show you my dress. Denny: Ok. Izzie: I'm going. Denny: Izzie. You did good. (To Bailey) I tricked her into marrying me. How smart am I? (Burke's room, Cristina is hovering in the doorway) Cristina: We're throwing a prom. Chief's making us throw a prom. Burke: O'Malley mentioned. Cristina: George came to see you? Burke: He's my friend. Cristina: Oh. Burke: I won't bear a grudge. Cristina: What did you...? Burke: I have to take care of me. I don't expect you to take care of me. But I have to take care of me. If this...if you can't stay here for this...I won't bear a grudge. Cristina: Are you going to tell Shepherd about... Burke: Not yet. I'm, uh...not yet. (Cristina leaves) (Finn's office. Meredith, Derek and Addison are there to put Doc to sleep) Finn: Ok. There's a couple of forms you need to sign. (Derek and Meredith both reach for the form) I only need one signature. Derek: You? Meredith: It's fine. Addison: Here, I'll sign. Meredith: So, how do we do this? Finn: Well, I'll give Doc an injection of terazole to make him sleepy, and then I'll give him an IV injection of pheonbarbitol. Derek: And that will stop his heart? Finn: Yes. Meredith: And what do we do after? With his body? Finn: We can...We have the means to dispose of it for you. Derek: That's fine. Go ahead. Meredith: We can't throw him away like he's garbage. Finn: We would never... Meredith: He's our dog, Derek. Derek: There's uh, clearing by the trailer. Meredith: Overlooking the water? Derek: We can, uh, bury him there. Addison: That sounds nice. Finn: You ready? Meredith: Yeah. (To Doc) I'm so sorry, Doc. Derek: I'm sorry too. (Addison's pager beeps) Addison: It's the hospital. I got to go. Derek: Ok. Addison: Ok. Finn: Ok. I'll begin. Meredith: (To Doc) It's ok. It's ok. It's ok. (Meredith is crying and Derek keeps looking at her. She is petting Doc and Derek touches her hand. Finn checks Doc's heart) Finn: He's gone. Meredith? Meredith: No, I have to go home and change. I'll see you later, ok? Finn: Meredith. I'm sorry. For your loss. Meredith: Yeah. You know, the thing is he wasn't really my dog for that long. He was more Derek's dog. Derek: Meredith. He was a good dog. Meredith: He was. (The hospital prom. The room is full of people dancing and having a good time.) Bailey: Oh, I'm too tired for this. Cristina: Where's your husband, Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Uh, at home with the baby. That you would at least get to get out of this. Cristina: Why? Bailey: Well, with Burke upstairs. What happened to him, I'm sure the Chief would have let you out. Cristina: Yeah. (Another part of the prom) Derek: Oh, God. Finn: Hey. Derek: Hey. Finn: You seen Meredith? Derek: I don't think she's here yet. (Derek and Finn both look up to see Meredith enter. She is dressed in a sparkly black dress and looks stunning. Finn walks away and Addison walks up.) Addison: This whole thing brings back very traumatic memories of being a band geek with braces and the lisp. (Derek is still looking at Meredith) Spending the whole evening with Skippy Gold talking about Star Wars. (Derek watches Meredith and Finn embrace) Derek: Hmm. I hated Star Wars. Addison: Hmm. Thank God. This is terrible. Derek: It's bad. So, you want to, um, dance? Derek: Love to. (Another part of the prom, Richard, Claire and Natalie are watching Camille and Brian dance. Richard walks up and taps Brian on the shoulder.) Richard: Can I cut in? (Brian scampers off looking scared) Camille: What did you say to my boyfriend to make him that scared of you? Richard: I'm a frightening man, Cammie. Camille: No, you're not. Richard: Where Brian's concerned, yes, I am. Camille: Be kind to him. He loves me. I've been loved. And that's something everyone should have once in their life. I've been loved. I have that. Thank you for the prom, Uncle Richard. Richard: You're welcome. (Callie is walking through the hall and George sees her) George: Hey, I was looking for you...Where are you going? Callie: I'm wearing a dress, I have on heels, I shaved my legs. I'm going to the prom. George: You said that you didn't want to go. Callie: No, I said I didn't want to go with you. George: Callie! Callie: I said I love you. I said it. I said it out loud to your face. And ever since, you...I've never said that to a guy before. Never. And now I am just this idiot who says I love you and then gets avoided. George: No. I'm not avoiding you. I promise. Callie: You gonna say it back? George: No. Callie: I'm humiliated. (He grabs her arm) Callie: No. No. George. Let me go. George, let me go! (He pushes her against the wall) George: Wait. Callie: Let me go. Let me go. George: Stop fighting me! If I say it back right now, you'll know I'm just saying it because you said it to me. When...when I say I love you... I want to mean it, because...you just have to give me some time to mean it. Callie: I hate that I'm so into you. (They start kissing) (Back at the prom, Derek is dancing with Addison while watching Meredith who is dancing with Finn) Finn: You're a lot hotter than my last prom date. Meredith: Is that a compliment? Finn: Maybe. Meredith: It feels like a compliment. Finn: Well, then it is. Meredith: Well, keep it up. You might get lucky. Finn: Well, now, how lucky are we talking? Are we talking kind of lucky? Or are we talking really, seriously lucky? Meredith: You have been a very patient man and I appreciate it. (He sighs) What? Finn: Liz, uh...Liz was my wife. And when she died...You do this thing, you know, where you stop making plans. Because you had plans, but then there was a car crash and your plans disappeared. So you just...I just try and get from sunup till sundown. That's as far into the future as I can handle. And I've been fine with that. I have. But right now, looking at you...Damn, I have all kinds of plans. Don't freak out. Meredith: I'm not. Finn: You're not? Meredith: No. You have plans. Finn: I have plans. (Meredith looks up and sees Derek who is looking at her.) Finn: You all right? Meredith: Yeah, just um, hot. And claustrophobic. Derek: (To Addison) There's a patient I forgot to check on. Meredith: (To Finn) You know, I'm just going to run and splash some cold water on my face. Derek: (To Addison) Be right back, ok? Meredith: (To Finn) Be right back, ok? Addison: Ok Finn: All right. (Meredith is running through the hall, Derek is running after her.) Derek: Meredith. Meredith: Leave me alone. Derek: Meredith. (Meredith enters an exam room and Derek follows) Meredith: Just leave me alone. Derek: I just want to make sure you're all right. Meredith: No! I'm not all right! Ok? Are you satisfied? I'm not all right! Because you have a wife and you call me a whore and our dog died and now you're looking at me. Stop looking at me! Derek: I'm not looking at you. I am not looking at you! Meredith: You are looking at me! And you watch me. And Finn has plans and I like Finn. He's perfect for me! And I'm really trying here to be happy! And I can't breathe! I can't breathe with you looking at me like that! So just stop! Derek: Do you think I want to look at you? That I wouldn't rather be looking at my wife? I'm married. I have responsibilities. She doesn't drive me crazy. She doesn't make it impossible for me to feel normal! She doesn't make me sick to my stomach thinking about my veterinarian touching her with his hands! Oh, man, I would give anything not to be looking at you! (She turns to face him and he kisses her) (Alex is walking up the stairs as Izzie is coming down them) Alex: Oh! You look nice. Izzie: Thank you. So do you. Hot date? Alex: Nah. This thing is cheesy. I wouldn't waste a decent chick on this. You heading in? Izzie: Yeah. Just going to see Denny first. Alex: (disappointed) Oh. Ok. (Denny's room, he is sitting in bed smiling) (Exam room, Derek and Meredith are still kissing. She is sitting on the exam table as he takes off her underwear. She takes off his jacket. He kisses her neck) (Denny's room. He appears to be in pain. He grips his chest. His monitor flatlines.) (Izzie is in the elevator, fidgeting and smiling.) (Exam room where Derek and Meredith have just finished having sex) Derek: What does this mean? Meredith: Uh, I had panties on. Black. Do you see them? Derek: Meredith, what does this mean? Meredith: Help me look for them. And fix your tie. Derek: Meredith. What does this mean? (Callie enters with a shocked look on her face.) Callie: Oh, the nurse told me to come find you. You have to come now. It's Izzie. Callie: (Stops her and fixes her dress) Wait, wait, wait. Ok, go. (Callie looks back at Derek and gives him a nasty look) (Richard is sitting in a dark gallery when Bailey enters) Bailey: Chief. Richard: Did my internship here. My residency. Came back here the minute my fellowship was done. The day they told me I would be Chief, I was standing right there in that OR when I got the news. Spent my whole career in this hospital. My whole life. Bailey: Sir...Denny Duquette died at 7:42 this evening. Richard: Damn it. (George, Meredith, Cristina and Callie run up to Denny's room, Olivia is standing outside) George: What happened? Olivia: I didn't know what to do. I didn't think you guys would want me to go to the Chief but... Cristina: Where is she? Olivia: She's in there with him. (They all enter the room where Izzie is lying on the bed with Denny.) Cristina: Izzie... Izzie: I think it was a stroke. He was prone to blood clots. A clot could have formed on his sutures and traveled to his brain. It only takes a second. Meredith: Iz... Izzie: Dr. Hahn did a beautiful job on the surgery. But I don't know why I didn't think of blood clots. He died all alone. He was alone. George: There was nothing you could have done. Izzie: I changed my dress three times. I wanted to look nice. I would have been here sooner... but I couldn't figure out which dress to wear. George: Izzie. We shouldn't be in here. Meredith: Iz, there are things that they need...they need to move him. Izzie: Take him to the morgue. Cristina: You can't stay here. I know you want to. Izzie: Can you please...please just get out? I want to be alone with Denny. (Alex enters) Alex: Izzie, that's not Denny. Izzie: Shut up. Alex: Iz, that's not Denny. The minute his heart stopped beating, he stopped being Denny. Now, I know you love him, but he also loved you. And a guy that loves you like that, he doesn't want you to do this to yourself. Because it's not Denny. Not anymore. Izzie: An hour ago he was proposing. And now...And now he's going to the morgue. Isn't that ridiculous? (She starts sobbing) Isn't that the most ridiculous piece of crap you've ever heard? Alex: Come on. (Alex picks her up and carries her to a chair and holds her in his arms.) (Burke's room, his hand is still having tremors, Cristina stands at the door for a moment and then walks in and grabs his hand.) (Finn and Addison are standing in the hallway when Derek walks out) Addison: I'm sorry, there are ridic...Hey. Derek: Hi. Addison: Where've you been? Derek: Uh, I was with... (Richard and Bailey walk up) Richard: Shepherd. Derek: Yes. Richard: Uh, have you seen Bailey's interns? Grey? Yang? I'm looking for Izzie Stevens in particular. Derek: No. No. Bailey: Chief. (They all look up to see Izzie walking out followed by George, Alex and Meredith.) Izzie: It was me. I cut his LVAD wire. I did it. No one helped me. And now...I thought I was a surgeon, but...I can't. I thought I was a surgeon, but I'm not. So I quit. Bailey: Izzie. (Izzie leaves with Alex and George behind her.) Addison: I guess that...puts an end to the evening. Derek: Yeah. Richard: Yeah, I guess it does. (Addison, Richard and Bailey walk off. Finn walks over to Meredith.) Finn: Come on. I'll drive you home. (She stands there, she looks at Derek. Derek looks at Finn. She looks at Finn who turns around and looks at her and then at Derek.) Derek: Meredith? (She looks at Derek) Finn: Meredith? (She looks at Finn. Finn and Derek exchange glances.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "02x27 - Losing My Religion"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x01: Time Has Come Today Original Airdate: 9/21/2006 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Daniel Minahan MEREDITH: In the OR, time loses all meaning. In the midst of sutures and saving lives, the clock ceases to matter. 15 minutes. 15 hours. Inside the OR, the best surgeons make time fly. Outside the OR however, time takes pleasure in kicking our asses. For even the strongest of us, it seems to play tricks. Slowing down, hovering...until it freezes, leaving us stuck in a moment, unable to move in one direction or the other. ALEX (through the door of the bathroom, to Izzie lying on the floor, unresponsive): Izzie. Izzie come on! GEORGE: Okay, she's been in there all night. We have to do something. ALEX: Yeah. MEREDITH: Yeah. CHRISTINA: Yeah. MEREDITH: Why are you all looking at me? CHRISTINA: Well this is familiar territory to you. MEREDITH: There is nothing familiar about this. Unfamiliar. Denny died. The man she loves died. CHRISTINA: Yeah, but you're all dark and twisty inside. MEREDITH: "Dark and twisty?" CHRISTINA: The mother with the Altzheimers thing, and the father that you don't talk to. ALEX: The tequila thing, and the inappropriate men thing... GEORGE: You are dark and twisty inside Meredith, and now Izzie is dark and twisty inside. MEREDITH: So now all the sudden I'm the president of people with crappy lives? GEORGE: Seriously we have to do something. Someone has to go in there. (We see Izzie, still unresponsive and staring into space, still lying on the floor in her prom dress.) Richard (voice over): The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. Look around you. Say hello to your competition. (Izzie sits up and stares at the slowly opening door.) (Flashback to the mixer.) IZZIE (introducing herself to Alex): Hi. Izzie Stephens. Washington. ALEX: Alex Karev, Iowa. IZZIE: This is nice, right? They threw a mixer for the new interns? ALEX: Yeah. It's just an excuse to get us all happy and drunk before they trture us (The camera moves around the room, spotlighting various interns.) ALEX: What program are you in? IZZIE: Surgery. ALEX: Seriously? IZZIE: Seriously. What? ALEX: I- I picked you for gynie or PEDS or something. IZZIE: You don't think I can be a surgeon? I can be a surgeon. ALEX: Surgery's hard core. IZZIE: I'm hard core. ALEX: You won't last the first year, babe. (Back to Izzie in the bathroom. George has come in, and is lying in front of her.) GEORGE: Izzie. IZZIE: What? GEORGE: Maybe you should change your clothes. Maybe you'd want to wear something more comfortable. IZZIE: Stop it. GEORGE: I know. Izzie... IZZIE: Stop it, I mean it. Stop talking. There is nothing to talk about. Do you understand me? There is nothing to discuss. GEORGE: I'm so sorry. IZZIE: Yeah, me too. ---------- (Back at Seattle Grace.) MORGUE GUY: So you're a surgeon? BAILEY: Yes. MORGUE GUY: Usually they don't send a surgeon for this. BAILEY: What do we need to... How do I... How do we do this? MORGUE GUY: You just gotta ID the body before I take him to the funeral home. So I don't take the wrong guy. BAILEY: That happens? MORGUE GUY: You wouldn't believe how many times I take the wrong guy. (Denny's body inside a body bag is wheeled out on a stretcher. Bailey checks that it's him.) BAILEY: That's him. That's Denny Duquette. MORGUE GUY: Great, let's load him up. And sign here (to bailey) BAILEY: When's the funeral? MORGUE GUY: No funeral. The family asked to have the body sent to Memphis. (As they go to take Denny away.) BAILEY: Wait. Wait, wait. (She talks to Denny through the plastic.) BAILEY: I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry. ---------- (Back at Meredith's house. Meredith is making sandwiches as Christina sits on the counter.) CHRISTINA: Why are we making sandwiches again? MEREDITH: It's what you do when someone dies. You cook. CHRISTINA: Yeah. I know what to do when someone dies. I am a jew. I know food and death. It's Shivah MEREDITH: Is it Shivah even if she's Catholic? CHRISTINA: Well Shivah's what I know how to do. So yeah. It's Shivah. And if we're sitting Shivah for Denny, then we should order in cause making sandwiches is not the same as cooking. MEREDITH: Sandwiches are comfort food. CHRISTINA: What's wrong with you? MEREDITH: Everything with me is fine. It's Izzie we're worried about. CHRISTINA: What did you do? MEREDITH: Denny died. Burke got sht. Let's just have some perspective and remember that what is a tiny slightly small... CHRISTINA: Whatever spit it out. MEREDITH: I lost my panties last night. ---------- (Cut to the trailer, where Addison is doing Laundry. She pulls a pair of black panties out of the drier, folds them and seals them in a ziplock baggie, which she throws in her purse.) (Back at the hospital.) Derek sits on the stairs, his head in his hands. CHIEF: Back already? DEREK: I never left. I did a craniotomy on a ruptured saccular aneurism. CHIEF: I've been here all night too. I wanted to see the autopsy on Duquette. DEREK: Yeah. You seen Meredith? (corrects himself) Dr. Grey. Have you seen Dr. Grey? CHIEF: Why? What's going on with you? DEREK: Could you get someone to cover my rounds for me so I can take care of some stuff? BAILEY: Are you free Dr. Shepherd? There's an incoming head trauma, and the pit's overcrowded with early flu season. DOCTOR: Giselle Toussant. 42-year-old-woman. Unrestrained driver of a car that ht the railing. Ejected from the car. OMAR: We were coming to the ER. We were both sick. We couldn't shake this flu thing. She was better so I let her drive. GISELLE: Omar? (referring to her husband) OMAR: Giselle? Honey? GISELLE: Oh where are we? Oh yeah. are we dancing? OMAR: We had an accident. DEREK: We have a dural laceration. She's leaking spinal fluid. Let's get an OR ready, ok? GISELLE: The dancing's so beautiful. OMAR: You're beautiful (He begins coughing.) GEORGE: He's burning up. DEREK: Somebody get him bed! Let's get her up to the OR right away. ---------- (Down in the pit.) Paramedics bring in a baby, and Alex responds ALEX: What's going on? PARAMEDIC: Premature newborn found in a trashcan at Turner prep school. The Umbilical cord's still attached. ALEX: You didn't start an IV. He's dehydrated. PARAMEDIC: Couldn't find a vein. ALEX: I need to get IV access. Get me an I.O. needle and I need a neonatal intubation kit. Olivia go MOVE! OLIVIA: They pulled me from the floor. I'm just down here helping with the flu overflow. Alex how old is that baby? (Alex grabs the baby and starts at a run for anywhere that's not covered in flu germs.) OLIVIA: Wait, wait what are you doing? ALEX: If you think I'm going to leave this sick premature infant in the OR... OLIVIA: He has to be admitted. You can't just take him... ALEX: Just page Addison Shepherd. Tell her to meet me in the NICU. ---------- ADDISON: Karev? ALEX: Premature newborn with Petechia. ADDISON: What's his platelet count? ALEX: 17,000. ADDISON: 17,000? Did you transfuse platelets? ALEX: Yes but it didn't help. ADDISON: Where's the mother? ALEX: I don't know. ADDISON: Dr. Karev, I'm not asking you where the mother is for my health. I expect you to use your brain. Where is the mother? ALEX: I don't know. The baby was found in a trash can at a high school. ADDISON: They left him in a trash can? ALEX: He's got some inner abdominal bleeding on the CT. You wanna run some more tests? Dr. Shepherd? ADDISON: I need a stat ultrasound and for you to infuse 2 grams of IVIG if there is no cranial bleeding. And find out where the mother is, I need to test for maternal platelet antibodies. ALEX: Can't you just do surgery to fix the abdominal bleeding? ADDISON: If I wanted to kll him, I could do that...Damn it. Who does this? OLIVIA: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd? There's some people here... about the baby. GEORGE: The clot's been evacuated, are we ready to close? DEREK: I just want to make sure there are no remaining bone fragments GEORGE: As well as can be expected. DEREK: It' never gets easier, you know...losing patient. A little less shocking I guess, but it never gets any easier. GEORGE: Izzie was in love with him. Denny wasn't just a patient. They were in love. ---------- (Back at Meredith's house.) CHRISTINA: You had sex with Derek in an exam room at the prom? MEREDITH: Yes. CHRISTINA: Last night, you and Shepherd did it? MEREDITH: Yes. CHRISTINA: You and McDreamy did the nasty-nasty? MEREDITH: Christina! CHRISTINA: I'm not judging. I'm just trying to wrap my mind around it. I mean you're with Finn. He's with Addison. MEREDITH: He's married to Addison. CHRISTINA: Yeah. Well what did Derek say? MEREDITH: He said "Meredith, what does this mean?" CHRISTINA: Ok, he has sex with you and he's standing there all McGuilty and all he can say for himself is "what does this mean?" What does this mean? MEREDITH: I don't know. CHRISTINA: Are you going to go back to Finn? Is Shepherd leaving his wife? MEREDITH: I just... Meredith has a flashback to being on a Carosel at about the age of 5, her mother is screaming her name from the sidewalk. Ellis is talking to Chief. ELLIS: Richard you were to tell Adele... RICHARD: I can't... ELLIS: I was to tell Thatcher. That is what we said They continue to argue, and Ellis pleads Richard not to leave her, but he does. He's gone back to Adele. ---------- (Back to the present day. In Chief's office.) CHIEF: You didn't have to make an appointment to see me! I'm your husband ADELE: An appointment seemed to be the best way to get your undivided attention, because here you are. CHIEF: Adele I... ADELE: Sit down. We have an appointment. BAILEY: Chief the IDC is here we had a couple come in this morning. Derek just finished a craniotomy on the wife, but the husband, he's got severe flu symptoms, swollen lymph nodes, buboes. Turns out they came in contact with the plague? CHIEF: The plague? I'm sorry Adele I need to deal with this. ---------- (Addison walks in on four teenage girls and their parents, who are bickering.) SHANNON'S MOTHER: Shannon gets straight A's. MAN: So what my daughter gets a B in math and suddenly she's birthing babies in toilet stalls? ADDISON: I'm Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. I've been treating the newborn. He has an emergent blood condition. And I need to know whose baby it is I'm dealing with. WOMAN: We'd all like to know that. Sarah, talk. SARAH: I don't know anything about any baby, mom. OTHER GIRL: None of us do. ADDISON: well one of you must know something, otherwise you wouldn't be here. A MOTHER: Look, Our girls...the principal said they were the last people in the bathroom before the baby was found. So we just thought, before the police show up... FATHER: One of you knows and you better confess. I don't want my Lisa messed up in this. ANOTHER MOTHER: The police will be here soon.Can't you just do some sort of DNA test so the rest of us can get out of here? ADDISON: DNA results take days and frankly I'm not concerned with the rest of you "out of here" If this baby isn't treated, he's going to die. Now I can do vaginal exams on each of the girls... A MOTHER: My daughter is 14 years old. She's not sexually active. And I won't have you violating her body. FATHER: you won't have it cause you know it's your kid. Listen you have my consent to do whatever it takes to prove my Lisa's innocence. A MOTHER: You are a sick bastard, you know that? ADDISON: A child's life is in jeopardy here. And it's not your consent that I need. GIRL 1: We didn't do anything wrong. GIRL 2: Yeah just cause we were in there doesn't mean it's our baby. GIRL 3: Do we look like the kind of girls who get pregnant and throw their kids in the trash? ---------- DEREK (in the locker room) Nice work today O'Malley. Hey did meredith go home with Izzy? GEORGE: Yeah Christina too, I'm headed there now. DEREK: yeah, me too. GEORGE: Oh great, it's just that...I don't know if Izzie's up for a lot of people. DEREK: Well I'm gonna go see Meredith. (He goes to open the door and a man in a sealed white suit greets him.) MAN: Mr. Shepherd? Dr. O'Malley? I'm with the IDC is anyone else in this room? DEREK: No MAN: You performed the Surgery on Mrs. Toussant? DEREK: Yes. MAN: She and her husband were in close contact with a victim of the plague. She may have been exposed. DEREK: Which means we may have been... MAN: Yes. DEREK: I gotta go. I can't do this. MAN: We're waiting on the diagnosis on Mrs. Toussant. This room will be sealed off until we know the thrat has been contained, and you're absolutely safe. GEORGE: You're not saying that... MAN: You can't leave. You're two are quarantined. ---------- BAILEY: I got this under control if you need to get back to your wife RICHARD: No, no. I should check in with the IDC rep. I have to stay on top of my hospital. Keep me posted. OMAR: Hello? I need help please. I know you can hear me. I see you standing out there in your giant white space suit. (Omar is in quarantine as well. A guard stands at his door.) BAILEY: Sir? OMAR: yes! MAN IN SUIT: No unauthorized personnel beyond this point, ma'am. IDC regulations. BAILEY: Look I know he is under quarantine, but he's also a patient. And I will not ignore a patient. OMAR: Hello out there. Thank God you can hear me. How's my wife? BAILEY: My name is Dr. Bailey, Miranda Bailey. You're wife is out of surgery, she's quarantined in recovery but she's doning fine, now you were asking for help? OMAR: You know how many days I been in here? BAILEY: It's only been a few hours. OMAR: Really? I'm losing it. I'm losing track of time. BAILEY: Ok sir, you're sweating. I need you to sit down, get back in the bed. OMAR: Well what about my wife? Can you find out about Giselle? BAILEY: Like I said sir, she came out of surgery just fine, but I can check on her status again. You just stay calm until I get back. OMAR: Wait! Don't go please. Just...just stay a minute. BAILEY: Okay, I'm staying. OMAR: Omar. Call me Omar. BAILEY: Okay, Omar. I'm right here. ---------- (Meredith answers the door.) CALLIE: I brought food. MEREDITH: George isn't here CALLIE: I know. He's in a quarantine cause of the thing. And I was worried about him and off duty and going crazy and then I though about Izzie, so I brought food. MEREDITH: For the Shivah? CALLIE: Are you going to let me in. MEREDITH: Yeah. CALLIE: Relax, I'm not going to bring it up. You and McDremamy and the sex. I'm not that person. MEREDITH: Good. CALLIE: Okay. Is it Shivah if Izzie's Catholic? CHRISTINA: This thing that you're doing, Izzie, it's not healthy. I mean, you gotta take off that dress. IZZIE: Tell me about Shivah. CHRISTINA: It's something you do when someone dies. We did it for my grandmother. IZZIE: How does it work? CHRISTINA: People bring over food. Family comes over. It's supposed to help with the grieving. Honors the dad. IZZIE: Sounds nice. CHRISTINA: Yeah, seven days of no leather shoes, no work, no sex, no sitting on things higher than foot, no shaving, no... IZZIE: What? CHRISTINA: No clean clothes. Izzie this doesn't have to be Shivah. IZZIE: You know they took his body away. I will never see him again. How would you feel if you never saw burke again? So we're sitting Shivah for Denny. ---------- ALEX: You want to see him? GIRL: Who? ALEX: The baby. Your baby. GIRL 2: It's not our baby FATHER: I've given you permission to do this, so what's the hang up? ADDISON: The "hang up" sir, is if you're daughter doesn't want to do it, I can't force her. MOTHER: They're 14. They're minors. We still have a say. CHIEF: No you don't. If someone doesn't want to submit to a vaginal exam they don't have to. It's the law. FATHER: Alright, that's it. I'm taking Lisa home. CHIEF: You do that sir, and I will have you arrested before you ht the parking lot. ADDISON: The law isn't the only thing in play here. If I do the vaginal exam and the girl's a virgin, there could be bleeding undue trauma, not to mention emotional stress. MOTHER: Well if I had to take a guess as to who's kid won't have to worry about that... MOTHER 2: What's that supposed to mean? MOTHER: It'd just be nice if Karen had a curfew. MOTHER 2: Oh at least she's not a shoplifter. MOTHER: Oh Shannon stole one lipstick when she was 9. Get over it. FATHER: I know for a fact that my lisa is a virgin. MOTHER: And how do you know that? FATHER: Because she's only 14 years old! MOTHER: They're all 14. ---------- (Addison's flashback to when she and Derek were still in New York. She is distraught, Derek severe. He's found out about her affair with Mark.) ADDISON: Derek... listen to me. Derek, you can't do this. we have to... (He's carrying her stuff away, not listening to her.) ADDISON: We have to talk about this. You have to give me a chance to Exlpain. DEREK: No I don't. ADDISON: What are you doing? Derek what are you doing with my clothes!? It was one time. I know that's what people say, I know that's what always gets said, but it... I don't even know how it happened, I don't know what I was thinking. He was just here! DEREK: You screw my best friend and that's all you can say-he was just here? (He throws Addison's clothes out into the street, it's pouring down rain.) DEREK: Get out. ADDISON: No. DEREK: Get out ADDISON: No I'm not going. We're going to talk about this. DEREK: Get out of my house! ADDISON: We're going to discuss this now. I'm holding my ground. We don't quit! DEREK: Get out! ADDISON: What are you doing? (Derek pulls her up off her cowering place on the stairs and shoves her out the front door, the closes it, locking her out.) ADDISON: Please... Please... Derek Please... (He opens the door and lets her in.) ADDISON: I'm sorry... I'm sorry. You have to give me a chance... you have to give me a chance to show you how sorry I am... DEREK: Okay... ADDISON: Okay? DEREK: I'm gonna go, you stay. I'll get my clothes in the morning. ADDISON: No, no, no... We can survive this. Derek, we can survive this. We're Addison and Derek. DEREK: I look at you and I feel nauseous. We're not Derek and Addison any more. ADDISON: If you go now... If you go now we're not going to get through this. If you go now, we don't have a chance... we don't have a chance. (Derek turns and walks out of the door.) ---------- (Back to the flashback of the mixer. Christina is circling around Burke, who is giggling with a woman, sitting on a couch.) CHRISTINA: Hi. You're... are you Preston Burke? BURKE: Uh... yeah. CHRISTINA: The Preston Burke. Dr. Burke I am such a huge fan. That Stentless valve replacement for infectious endocarditis you performed? And your use of transmyocardial revascularization? I- I'm Christina Yang. If I could just get the chance to study under you I would be...you are so amazing! BURKE: Yes well... thank you... (George is talking to Meredith, who is staring over his shoulder at Dr. Webber, not trying to be rude but, just not interested.) GEORGE: I mean one of my choices was San Diego. I could have gone to San Diego. But Seattle's home, so... So you're new to Seattle? MEREDITH: No...I kind of live here. My mother lived here... lives here... and I live in her house. GEORGE: That's great, cause housing is a nightmare. I'm living with my parents at home, which sucks. (She walks away.) Oh it was nice meeting you! ---------- ( Back to the locker room.) GEORGE: We've been exposed to the plague. DEREK: They don't know it's the plague. GEORGE: So the men in the white suits? Just, what, making a fashion statement? DEREK: No it's a precaution. When the blood work comes back we'll be out of here. GEORGE: What if the blood results come back and it's the plague? What if we get the plague? Do we die in here with the crappy benches, and the dirty scrubs and the lockers full of food DEREK: There's food in the lockers? (Derek searches the lockers.) GEORGE: Dr. Shepherd, those are people's personal... that's Alex's apple. (Derek bites into it.) That's just rude. ADDISON: Safe haven laws - all those girls would have had to do was to drop that baby off at a fre station, or a hospital. Now... it's a mess CHIEF: What are our options here? ADDISON: Blood typing. We take a sample from each of the girls. The baby's blood type is double O. If the girls are A or B it means the baby's not theirs. CHIEF: Do it. ---------- MEREDITH: Everyone thinks I'll know what to say to her. I don't know what to say to her. Dark and twisty Meredith. I'm not dark and twisty. And if I am dark and twisty, it's because I live my life under a banner of avoidance. I avoid. I'm an avoider. FINN: Hello? MEREDITH: Hey. FINN: Hey. So can we...uh? MEREDITH: Izzie. I gotta go check on Izzie. CALLIE: Don't take it personally. It's the doctor thing FINN: What? CALLIE: Four years of high school, four years of college, four years of med school...by the time we gradtuate we're in our late 20's..and we've never done anything except go to school, think about science. Time stops. We're socially retrd. I mean, look at me... I'm in love with a guy that won't say he loves me back, and here I am in his kitchen cooking just hoping that he comes home and notices me. I'm a total freak. I'm that girl in the back of the class who eats her hair. Meredith...she's 17 years old. We're all 17 years old. It's high school with sclapels Finn. MEREDITH: I don't know what to say to you. IZZIE: When Dylan died, when the bmb went off... did you feel like... MEREDITH: What? IZZIE: Like you were moving in slow motion? MEREDITH: He was there and then he wasn't. Like I blinked and he was gone. IZZIE: I feel like I'm moving in slow motion... like I'm moving in slow motion and everything around me is moving so fast. I just wanna go back to when things were normal. When I wasn't "poor Izzie lying on the bathroom floor in her prom dress with her... her dad fiancé." But I am. so I can't. And I'm... just stuck. And there's all this pressure cause everyone's hovering around me, waiting for me to do something, or say something or flip out or yell or cry some more... and I'm happy to play my part. I'm happy to say the lines and do whatever it is I'm supposed to be doing if it will make everyone feel more comfortable. But I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to be this person. I don't know who this person is. MEREDITH: Izzie IZZIE: How did this happen? How did we end up here? Why am I alone? Where's Denny? MEREDITH: You're not alone Iz. ---------- DEREK: Trail mix and warm soda. Who puts warm soda in their locker? GEORGE: As usual Christina's to lazy to stock her locker with food. DEREK: Oh here, I ht the motherload. Look at this. Granola, Cookies, Muffins...who eats this much? GEORGE: Oh that's Izzie's locker. She ate a lot. Said it kept her energy up. DEREK: Eats GEORGE: What? DEREK: Eats. You said Ate. Eats is present tense. She didn't die. GEORGE: She feels like she did. She's never coming back here. You know...I don't think she's ever going to be the same. DEREK: You know there are moments O'Malley. Where all of a sudden in a split second and your life changes forever. Before you know it, you're somewhere else. CHIEF: Gentlemen. GEORGE: Chief! Can we please get out of here now? CHIEF: No. DEREK: A split second. ---------- (Flashback to when Derek met Meredith at Joe's.) JOE: Straight Tequila? Really? You are going to be sorry in the morning. MEREDITH: I'm always sorry in the morning. But tomorrow I start my first day at work, so keep them coming. DEREK: (to Joe) How you doing? Double scotch, single malt please. (to Meredith) So is this a good place to hang out? MEREDITH: I wouldn't know, I've never been here before. DEREK: Oh well you know what, I haven't either. First time in town. I'm new in town. First time in Seattle. I got a job so... Ah you're ignoring me. MEREDITH: I'm trying to. DEREK: You shouldn't ignore me. MEREDITH: Why not? DEREK: Because I'm someone you need to get to know to love. MEREDITH: So if I know you, I'll love you? DEREK: Oh yes. MEREDITH: You really like yourself, huh? DEREK: Just hiding my pain. So what's your story? MEREDITH: I don't have a story. I'm just a girl in a bar. DEREK: I'm just a guy in a bar. ---------- ALEX: How do you not know your kid's pregnant? ADDISON: You love your kids. You want to see the best in them. ALEX: Well then how do you have a baby and throw it in a trash can? ADDISON: Something happens. You panic.You freeze, and you hide it and pretend like it didn't happen I get that. ALEX: You get that? ADDISON: I do. I just don't get what come afterward. I don't get how you go back to class and pretend everything's fine. Everything is not fine. A Doctor hands Alex a piece of paper. Alex. It's the blook results. Karen and Lisa are not a match. ADDISON: And then there were two. ---------- OMAR: Miranda... I'm feeling better. A lot better. I think the fever broke...that's good right? BAILEY: That's very good Omar. OMAR: How's Giselle, is she asking for me? BAILEY: Omar, for Giselle, being exposed to the plague, it complicated things. OMAR: What things? BAILEY: We did everything we could. OMAR: No. No. BAILEY: I'm so sorry Omar. OMAR: No... no... no... no. BAILEY: Omar. Come on breathe. (Bailey rips at the quarantine tape on the door, but is stopped by the white suit man.) BAILEY: Stop that! He's hyperventilating, I have to go in there. MAN: You can't go in there. BAILEY: Somebody has to go in! ---------- BAILEY: Omar! Can you hear me? OMAR: I need my wife, I need Giselle! Let me out! Let me out of here! BAILEY: Look! Omar, Look at me! I need you to put your hands against my hands. Come on. OMAR: My beautiful Giselle BAILEY: Look at my hands. Put your hands on my hands. Good. Okay. Look at me! Can you tell me my name? Do you remember my name? OMAR: Miranda BAILEY: Miranda. That's right OMAR: I want Giselle. I have to save her. Please let me out of here. BAILEY: I wish I could help you, I wish I could turn back the clock and make it yesterday. You don't know how much I wish that. But... I can't turn back time. OMAR: She was sick, I should have taken over. BAILEY: I know. Come on...I know. I should have taken over too. But we can't go back. Look even if I let you out of here, you can't help Giselle now. OMAR: Do you believe in God Miranda? Do you believe in the afterlife? BAILEY: I have to believe Omar. What I do, I have to believe. That when our time come, we go to a place... a beautiful place... a better place... Omar... ---------- GEORGE: That woman died. She actually died. Is it hot in here? DEREK: No GEORGE: Than why am I sweating? DEREK: Cause you're pacing. GEORGE: My pulse is rapid. DEREK: Cause you're still pacing. GEORGE: Feel me. DEREK: I'm not going to feel you. GEORGE: Seriously. DEREK: Seriously, no GEORGE: You're an ass. You've lived. You've done things. And you have the hair, and the hot wife. And the beautiful ex-mistress who's pining for you. DEREK: She's pining for me? GEORGE: My point is...you've lived. If you die who cares? But if I die, what? This is it? Callie told me she loved me and I just sat there. I mean I wasn't ready. But now I'm going to die and note even get a chance to say I love you back. DEREK: Do you? Do you love her? GEORGE: Maybe... eventually... I could. Maybe... one day... soonish. DEREK: Soonish? I will love you soonish? GEORGE: You ever tell Meredith? You ever tell her that you love her? DEREK: No. GEORGE: I did. I...I'm with Callie. It's different. DEREK: You should tell her. Even if it's soonish. You should tell her before it's too late GEORGE: You mean before I die of the plague? DEREK: Before somebody else comes along. ---------- CALLIE: That I believe... Oh... uh (as Meredith walks in on her talking to Finn) I'm gonna... leave the room for a period of time for no reason whatsoever. FINN: I don't know what happened last night... between you and Derek ... MEREDITH: Finn... FINN: We never said that we were exclusive. MEREDITH: But you have plans. FINN: Well I didn't say I wasn't pissed off. I said we weren't exclusive. That's all I wanted to say. Oh and this...I know you think you're scary and damaged. MEREDITH: Dark and twisty. FINN: It makes you feel like you don't deserve good things. But you do. And Derek...he's bad for you. But me...I'm a good thing. And if there's a race...if there is a ring...my hat is in...(he leaves) ---------- ADELE: I made an appointment for a reason. I scheduled the time because I had something important to say and you made me wait. RICHARD: I have a situation Adele ADELE: I've spent my life waiting. Waiting for you to finish med school, waiting for you to come home at night. Waiting for you to leave that woman. I'm done waiting. RICHARD: Adele... ADELE: It's time for you to make a choice: me or this hospital. It's time for you to retire richard. ---------- (Addison talks to the two remaining candidates for the little boy's mother.) ADDISON: There he is. That's your son. I wan't you both to look at him. Because it's not true you did nothing wrong. You both are wrong. You're wrong for covering this up, you're wrong for lying about it. You're wrong for letting this little baby, this sweet, innocent little boy suffer like this. He's dying and it's your fault. It's both of your faults. Anf the thing is, the truth will come out. In time it will always come out, it always does...it just does. And when it does, this baby will be dad. GIRL: Shannon... SHANNON: Don't tell my mom okay? ADDISON: Thank you. Thank you for telling the truth. ---------- GEORGE: You really don't feel anything? DEREK: I feel like I've been here very long time. I feel it might be too late. GEORGE: too late for what? IDC GUY: Thanks for your patience and cooperation doctors. You'll have to go on a course of antibiotics, but the thrat has been contained. DEREK: Good. GEORGE: What? IDC guy: You're free to go. ---------- ADDISON: Poor little guy. The minute he's okay we have to turn him over to a mother who's going to juvie and grandparents who were so clueless they didn't even realize their daughter was even pregnant. Imagine the kind of childhood he's going to have. ALEX: You can get over a bad childhood. You can have the worst crap in the world happen to you and you can get over it. all you have to do is survive. ---------- GEORGE: Hello? CALLIE: Oh My God... I was so worried. GEORGE: I'm fine... I'm fine CALLIE: I was really worried. GEORGE: Yeah, well me too. CALLIE: George, I really love you. (He kisses her.) DEREK: Hi MEREDITH: hi. DEREK: I was going to come over this morning but uh- MEREDITH: I heard, the quarantine. DEREK: Yeah. MEREDITH: So what does this mean? DEREK: It means you have a choice. You hve a choice to make. I don't want to rush you into making a decision before you're ready. This morning I was going to come over, and I was going to say- what I wanted to say was...now all I can say is that I'm in love with you. I've been in love with you for...ever. I'm a little late. I know I'm a little late telling you that. But I just want you to take your time...you know. Take all the time you need...cause you have a choice to make. And when I had a choice to make, I chose wrong. All right. Good night. MEREDITH: Time flies ADELE: You're not going to retire, are you? CHIEF: Adele you spring this on me today...I need more time. ADELE: I don't have any more time to give. MEREDITH: Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. (Addison pin's Meredith's panties to the bulletin board.) BURKE: Where have you been all day? CHRISTINA: Sitting Shivah for Denny. (She crawls into his hospital bed and lies her head on his chest.) CHRISTINA: How are you? ---------- BURKE: How are you? (Christina begins to cry.) CHRISTINA: Don't ever die... BURKE: I'll do my best. MEREDITH: All any of us wants is more time (Back to the flashback of the mixer when everyone is leaving.) (George says goodnight to an indifferent Meredith. Alex has Olivia on his arm.) Izzie (to George) Isn't this so cool. I mean tomorrow we're going to surgeons. (Back to Izzie on the floor. She grabs Meredith's arm and stands up.) MEREDITH: Time to stand up... time to grow up. Time to let go. IZZIE: I'm ready MEREDITH: Okay. (Meredith helps Izzie take off her prom dress.) MEREDITH: Time...	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x01 - Time Has Come Today"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x02: I Am a Tree Original Airdate: 9/28/2006 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Jeff Melman MEREDITH: At any moment, the brain has 14 billion neurons fring at a speed of 450 miles per hour. We don't have control over most of them. When we get a chill, goosebumps. When we get excited, adrenaline. The body naturally follows it's impulses, which I think is part of what makes it so hard for us to control ours. (sht of Izzie in the kitchen, surrounded by dozens of muffins.) IZZIE: That's enough muffins. We don't need all these. No more muffins. (Yet she goes to make another batch.) MEREDITH: Of course, sometimes we have impulses we'd rather not control. (Christina walks into Burke's room and begins stripping off her scrubs, climbing atop his bed in nothing but her red lingerie.) BURKE: what are you doing? CHRISTINA: Just because you cant touch, doesn't mean you can't enjoy. MEREDITH: That we later wish we had. (Burke's parents walk into his room.) BURKE: Mama... Daddy. CHRISTINA: Oh...what... MRS. BURKE: Preston? CHRISTINA: Mama and Daddy!? MRS. BURKE: Is this a new service the hospital is providing? (Christina scrambles to clothe herself.) CHRISTINA: I told you to guard the door. NURSE: I had a code blue. CHRISTINA: I had parents walk in. NURSE: We saved the guy's life. CHRISTINA: Whatever, I want my 20 bucks back. NURSE: Sorry. It bought everyone coffee to celebrate saving the guy's life. CHRISTINA: I want my 20 bucks back! MEREDITH: You know it's not Tyler's fault you're a dirty, dirty stripper. CHRISTINA: You heard. MEREDITH: Everyone heard. Stripper CHRISTINA: Oh you're one to talk. Sleeping with two men. MEREDITH: Wrong. I'm not sleeping with either one of them. Not until I pick one. If I haven't made a decision by the end of the day, I'm flipping a coin. A girl can only hold out for so long. CHRISTINA: Oh and somehow I'm the dirty stripper. BAILEY: You two have time to round or are you too busy getting naked on hospital property? CHRISTINA: I wasn't... I wasn't naked! ---------- CHIEF: You have coffee stain on your shirt. ADDISON: You have a bed on your couch CHIEF: Hope you're not hoping to see patients in your sweat suit. ADDISON: Actually I need the day off. CHIEF: A day off...for what? ADDISON: For drinking. I am feeling the need to do some drinking. Actually, I'm feeling the need to do some crying, but my tear ducts seem to be too proud, so I'm going to do some drinking instead. CHIEF: What no laboring moms today? ADDISON: No, because I think God knows I need to do some drinking today. CHIEF: You want to talk about it Addie, or you just want to be glib a little bit longer? ADDISON: Why are you living in your office? CHIEF: Marriage... is hard. ADDISON: Well thank goodness, mine seems to be just about over. ---------- (A 30-something woman sits on her bed, eating a giant cake as the interns make rounds.) BAILEY: Ms. Seabury what... what are... no I'm sorry, you cannot be eating. CHIEF: What is all this? MS. SEABURY: This is chocolate raspberry soufflé cake and it's the best thing I've ever tasted in my life. Except for maybe the banana cream torte there, it's pretty stunning really. Bakeries deliver, did you know that? Please grab a fork. CHIEF: Ms. Seabury, you're scheduled for surgery this afternoon. MS. SEABURY: We push the surgery a little? Tomorrow maybe? Oh my God, you've got to taste this! BAILEY: Ma'am, you have an aggressive form of lung cancer. The sooner we get you into surgery, the better your chances of surviving. So I've heard. It's all very aggressive. I mean, it's very... (Ms. Seabury erupts in giggles.) MS. SEABURY: I have never smoked a cigarette in my life. I've never smoked pot. I've never drank. Before today, I hadn't had a desert in 10 years. I am the picture of health. And now...i have lung cancer. Come on it's absurd right? (still giggling) Oh...I'm sorry. I think I'm on a sugar high. (The doctors take the conversation outside.) CHIEF: O'Malley reschedule her surgery for tomorrow. And get her a psych consult. And no more food deliveries. GEORGE: Yes sir. MEREDITH (to George): Okay...(she nods her head toward Bailey) GEORGE: So...um Dr. Bailey? BAILEY: Surgeons don't say "Um" Dr. O'Malley. You want to be a surgeon, learn to speak like one. ALEX: Look he wants you to talk to the chief about Izzie... GEORGE: She just baking...a lot of baking, and it seems a waste for all her talent and medical skills to go into muffins. We just thought you might be willing to help... BAILEY: Stop...talking. GEORGE: Yes ma'am. (They follow her to the next room where Derek meets them.) DEREK: Well, good morning. Benjamin, Ruth. RUTH: Good Morning Dr. Shepherd DEREK: Morning. BENJAMIN: It doesn't feel like a very good morning to me I have to have brain surgery today. (We see Derek dreamily gazing at Meredith, and she smiles back.) BENJAMIN: Pretty scary. Plus my sister's nervous, and when she gets nervous she sweats, and the windows in here don't open so it's pretty rank. RUTH: Benjamin. BENJAMIN: Was I rude Ruthie? RUTH: Let's let the doctors talk. CHRISTINA: Benjamin O'Leary, 32. In for the removal of a brain tumor that's pushing on his fronal temporal lobe. Clearly it's effecting his impulse control. BEN: It makes me sad everything I think, which apparently is annoying. This doctor looks annoyed anyway. Although it's hard to tell, cause she always has kind of a pinched uptight look on her face. Am I annoying you? CHRISTINA: It's fine. RUTH: You can't say it's fine. He doesn't perceive sarcasm or irony. If he's annoying you, you have to tell him. BEN: Maybe I'm not annoying her, Ruthie. CHRISTINA: No you are BAILEY: Dr. Yang.. CHRISTINA: Well, he asked. DEREK: Ok, Dr. Yang, pinched and annoyed though she may be is going to be prepping you for surgery today. Do you have any questions for me? BEN: Is that blonde your girlfriend? Cause the way you keep looking at her, you might as well mount her right here and now. RUTH: Benjamin. BEN: I'm sorry, was that rude? BAILEY: I'm proud of you all. You make me proud. You reflect on me well. Grey, if you think you can keep you clothes on long enough to follow up the labs, I'd appreciate it. Karev, cover in the pit. ALEX: The pit? Wait, I'm off Gynie squad? BAILEY: Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd is out sick today You can cover the pit where you can... you can tell me who's damn panties are on the bulletin board? (Everyone giggles, and the entire floor turns to listen to what's going on.) CHRISTINA: Are those yours? BAILEY: This is a hospital, people. Serious work happens here. We save lives here. Oh is something funny? Whose are these? MEREDITH: This is bad. This isn't good. CHRISTINA: Well you'd better claim them. She thinks they're mine! Claim them! MEREDITH: No. BAILEY: Yeah, I know it's one of you. It's always one of mine. Always. So, tell me. Which one of you left your damn drawers on my surgical floor? CALLIE: Oh no, did I leave my underwear lying around again? I'm so sorry Bailey. It's my bad. (And with that. Callie removes the underwear, and trots off.) ---------- BAILEY: O'Malley, Yang, prep your patients. Karev, pit, Grey, charts. All four of you, do not make me regret setting you loose in this hospital. O'Malley, what I mean by that? GEORGE: You mean to check with you before we cut any wires or steal any hearts. BAILEY: Are you trying to be clever? GEORGE: No ma'am. BAILEY: Better not be. GEORGE: Holy crap. CHRISTINA: The nzi is definitely back. ALEX: Better than ever. CHRISTINA: Oh, Mrs Burke...Hi I'm Christina. I may have said that earlier.. but... MRS. BURKE: Did I hear you refer to Miranada Bailey as a nzi? CHRISTINA: No. Well... I mean yes, but... MRS. BURKE: You do understand that the nzi's were responsible for the worst genocide in the history of man. And a rcist genocide at that. I would think that as a woman of color and a doctor, no less, that you would think twice about using that word as a punch line. CHRISTINA: I will think about that in the future Mrs. Burke. DEREK: Mrs. Burke? Preston's mother? MRS. BURKE: Yes, and you are? DEREK: I'm Dr. Shepherd, the surgeon who operated on your son. MRS. BURKE: Thank you, brilliant surgeon. And a handsome man too. Your mother must be very proud. Do you mind, Dr. Shepherd, if I borrow your young intern for a cup of coffee? I'll bring her right back. DEREK: No problem. Dr. Grey can cover for Christina. MEREDITH: I'm sorry? CHRISTINA: Dr. Grey is very busy. She has charts to do for Bailey. Bailey is on the warpath. Oh, not a German warpath. It's a hospital warpath. DEREK: I'll take care of Bailey. Enjoy your coffee date, ladies. It was nice meeting you. MRS. BAILEY: Thank you. CHRISTINA: I'll um... I just have this one quick... I'll meet you in the cafeteria in a couple of minutes, is that alright? MRS. BURKE: Yes, I look forward to it. DEREK: Well this is a change. From the elevator. A little more public, I like it. MEREDITH: You're married... You're married, and you said things to me. DEREK: Yes, I said things to you. MEREDITH: Normally, I would like the things you said to me. Normally I would even think the bulletin board thing was funny. DEREK: What bulletin board thing? MEREDITH: But you're married. Which makes none of this normal. It makes me a home wrecker. And I hate that I'm a home wrecker.. DEREK: I'm not going to pressure you, take all the time you need. But just so you have all the information...my home was wracked long before you came into the picture. And I am just now done trying to rebuild it. MEREDITH: Done? DEREK: I'm done. Whatever you decide, I'm ending it with Addison. Today MEREDITH: You have said this before. DEREK: I know, but this time I mean it. And I'm going to come clean, just as soon as I see her. (He's inching closer and closer to her face, about to kiss her.) MEREDITH: You are? DEREK: I am. (Callie walks is just before their lips touch. Derek flees. Callie hands Meredith her underwear.) CALLIE: You guys should think about getting a hotel room or something. ---------- (Christina walks into Burke's room, Mr. Burke is sitting in a nearby chair, reading something.) CHRISTINA: Oh... um. Your mother wants to have coffee with me. BURKE: And? CHRISTINA: She thinks I'm a rcist. Oh, and a stripper. She thinks I'm a rcist stripper. Oh, come on, what's funny? This is not funny. BURKE: Well it is kind of funny. She's just my mama, Christina. CHRISTINA: You're mama? BURKE: You'll love her when you get to know her. Everybody loves my mama. CHRISTINA: You... will save me from this. You will save me from this or... you will save me from this. DEREK: Hey, you haven't heard from Addison have you? CHIEF: Actually she needed the day off. Something about finding another woman's panties in the pocket of your tux. DEREK: That's not how I wanted her to find out. CHIEF: You don't leave another woman's panties in your tux unless you want her to find them. I know a thing or two about affairs. I even know a thing about affairs with women named Grey. DEREK: It's not an affair. I was going to tell her...Addison...i was going to tell her today. I was going to end it. CHIEF: Give her some space. DEREK: No, I gotta talk to her today. If something's over, it's just got to be over. Meredith, she's...she's not an affair. ---------- BEN: Ow! Ruthie I don't think I want this surgery. RUTH: You have to have this surgery Ben. BEN: Right. You're very pretty. But you look kind of tired, and I think maybe you should change your hair conditioner. RUTH: That was rude Benjamin. BEN: It is? MEREDITH: No, actually, it's true, and it's refreshing. BEN: Do you have sex with that brain surgeon? RUTH: Benjamin... MEREDITH: It's okay. Nope. I haven't. Not today anyway. BEN: I would. He's hot...and arrogant, in a ways that's still sexy. I would totally have sex with him if I could. Looks like you could. So what's the hold up? ---------- (George walks up to Callie, and looks over her shoulder at a chart.) CALLIE: Are you trying to seduce me? GEORGE: I was just wondering... I have a lot of work to do, but I was just wondering about the panties, that are yours, and how they ended up on the bulletin board. Black lacy panties on the board. CALLIE: You are trying to seduce me. GEORGE: No... no I'm not. I'm just wondering how...panties I haven't seen before...and I've seen your panties a lot of days in a row now... I'm just wondering how black panties that apparently belong to you and I've never seen end up on the bulletin board. CALLIE: Wow...you are jealous. GEORGE: No...no no no. CALLIE: Yeah... GEORGE: I'm not... (Mrs. Seabury goes flying by in her self-propelled wheelchair, screaming.) GEORGE: Is that my patient? Mrs. Seabury? (He goes to chase after her.) MEREDITH: I'll tell him. CALLIE: What? MEREDITH: I'll tell him the truth...about the panties. CALLIE: Don't you dare. He is jealous. ---------- ALEX: So, you and O'Malley, huh? How'd that happen? CALLIE: I don't know. You're a surgeon, how'd that happen? BAILEY: Karev, she's a resident, she outranks you. You don't get to ask personal questions. CALLIE: It's fine Dr. Bailey. BAILEY: He's my resident, I say it's not fine. is that clear? ALEX: No. BAILEY: What's not clear? ALEX: What's not clear to me is why you won't talk to Izzie. That's what's not clear. BAILEY: Really, you want to push me on this? Today? Today you want to push me? (They meet an incoming ambulance outside.) BAILEY: What have we got Jill? Jill: Marley Hernandez, 14. Was street lugeing when he lost control and ht a car. Witnesses say he was catapulted at least 20 feet into the air. Landed on a pile of tree trimmings. Broken pelvis is apparent, as are I would guess some pretty massive internal injuries. BAILEY: You would guess? (The paramedics wheel out a young man who has a tree sticking all the way through the left side of his body.) ---------- BAILEY: Alright Marley, you're at the hospital. We're going to take care of you now. MARLEY: Hospital? What's the matter with me? MR. MARLEY: You're an idiot that's what's the matter. MARLEY: Dad? BAILEY: Please back away, sir. MR. MARLEY: Your friends are idiots and you don't use the sense God gave you. That's what's the matter with you! NURSE: You're blocking our path, please! (Alex then shoves Marley's dad to the side, forcing him to slam into the outside wall of the hospital.) ALEX: Are you okay? MR. MARLEY: You son of a bitch. Where's my son? BAILEY: We took him in there. ALEX: He was blocking the paramedics! BAILEY: No, he is terrified. His child is a tree! Alex, listen to me. You will not get physical with another human being on my watch ever again. You will not question my authority. And you will not defend your little girlfriend for klling a man. Are we clear? ALEX: She's not my girlfriend. ---------- MRS. BURKE: As you know I'm sure, he graduated first in his class from Tulane. CHRISTINA: I... I did know that. Actually, I graduated first in my class at Stanford. MRS. BURKE: Ah. So you are planning to pursue a less time consuming specialty? Obstetrics perhaps? Or family medicine? CHRISTINA: Oh, I'm in the surgical program. MRS. BURKE: But after you're married? CHRISTINA: Married? I'm sorry... married? MRS. BURKE: Come, Christina. You must have considered the possibility. You're no spring chicken. I don't know a young woman who wouldn't want to marry my Preston, given half the chance. He's brilliant, he's handsome. He's the best thing I've done in my life. He's the most important thing in the world to me. CHRISTINA: Oh...okay. Oh Burke, Burke! Preston... Preston Burke is here. BURKE: What a surprise. My two favorite ladies in the same place. MRS. BURKE: Preston, what on earth are you doing out of bed? BURKE: Oh... well I... I wanted to... get some... stretch my legs mama. MRS. BURKE: But you're not supposed to stretch your legs. You're supposed to be resting. BURKE: Right. But I wanted to have some... some air. Some stretching, some air... and some coffee. Anybody want any coffee? CHRISTINA: We Already have coffee. Please have a seat. BURKE: Right. Just a second... coffee. MRS. BURKE: You did this. CHRISTINA: What? MRS. BURKE: Christina, listen to me. It's not that I don't like you. I think that you're a very smart, very attractive young woman. But you're selfish. CHRISTINA: I beg your pardon? MRS. BURKE: Oh, you pulled him out of his sick bed because you were uncomfortable. That's selfish. You're selfish, and my son is giving. And the combination...well...it's not going to last. Not much longer. BURKE: Hey heyyy, hi. Alright. I brought you a scone mama. ---------- BAILEY: His kidney's gone. No way to save it. CHIEF: Just focus on keeping the renal artery under control BAILEY: I have another bleeder. CHIEF: Ok pace yourself everybody. We have a long way to go. We have enough blood standing by? ALEX: Yes sir. GEORGE: (from the gallery) Is that a tree? CHRISTINA: His mother rivals his mother. And that is saying something. GEORGE: They're operating around it? CHRISTINA: Both dark and evil. You're blocking my view George MEREDITH: I miss dirty stripper Christina. She was fun. A lot less angry. CHRISTINA: Next time I see her, if she even looks at me sideways, I'm telling her what I think. She wants to call me rcist? GEORGE: What? CHRISTINA: I'll call her sexist. Change my career after I'm married? What is this, 1953? She comes at me, I'm going there. MEREDITH: I think you should. I think we all should just go there. You know, tell the truth. Spit it out. Go with your gut. Follow your instincts. CHRISTINA: I miss philandering whore Meredith. She was trashy and much less ldyllic. GEORGE: Do women have two sets of panties? You know, ones they wear for different occasions? MEREDITH: I made a choice. I'm picking Derek. Finn is great. But Derek...is Derek. And I'm following my gut. CHRISTINA: Whatever. I want my patient back. You know, the one you stole after mama cornered me? MEREDITH: That's okay. It's my day to check on Izzie anyway. ---------- GEORGE: You paged me? NURSE: Your patient was caught shoplifting chocolate from the hospital gift shop. GEORGE: What? MRS SEABURY: I've never done that before, it was exhilarating. NURSE: And now she's planning to leave. GEORGE: You can't...she can't leave. You're sick. You should be sleeping. Resting. MRS SEABURY: Preparing for death? GEORGE: Preparing for surgery there's a difference. MRS SEABURY: Maybe. Maybe not. That's what they mean when they give you a 60% chance of survival. It means 4 out of 10 people die whether they have the surgery or not. I have lived my entire life, pent-up, repressed. Stifling every impulse, following every rule. And now I'm done. And you know what, you should be too. We should all be done. GEORGE: So you're leaving? MRS SEABURY: I'm claiming my life doctor. I cant do that from a hospital bed. GEORGE: And you know you'll die. MRS SEABURY: Maybe. But at least when I do, I'll know that I have lived. Mmmmm. Oh God, this is good. ---------- MEREDITH: Izzie? (The entire kitchen is covered in muffins. The doorbell rings before Meredith can locate Izzie) MEREDITH: Finn. FINN: Hi. What are you doing home? I thought you were working. MEREDITH: I am. I was. I still am. I just came home to check on Izzie. FINN: So did I. Brought her lunch. MEREDITH: You brought Izzie lunch? FINN: When my wife died, there really wasn't anything anyone could say. But the bringing of food helped. It was the only thing that helped. MEREDITH: You brought Izzie food? FINN: Yeah. MEREDITH: Even though you didn't think I was here. FINN: Is that okay? MEREDITH: Yeah... it's amazing actually. You're amazing. Sweet and thoughtful. And sensitive. FINN: Meredith, I don't want to pressure you. You have a decision to make. I want you to take all the time that you need. But I do want to make one thing clear. MEREDITH: What's that? FINN: I'm not al that sensitive. At which point he kisses her. FINN: So... MEREDITH: So... FINN: Have a nice day at work. ---------- BAILEY: Mr. Hernandez? MR. HERNANDEZ: How... how is he? Is he okay? I mean you've been operating for hours. BAILEY: There is extensive damage. We've had to remove one of his kidnneys and a portion of his bowels. MR. HERNANDEZ: But the tree's out. I mean you got it out and he's okay? BAILEY: Okay, Mr. Hernandez the branch is actually still there. We're operating around it which is a part of what's taking up so much time. MR. HERNANDEZ: His mother's not here yet. Do you think he'll be okay by the time she gets here? BAILEY: I'm sorry, I do have to get back in there. I just came to give you an update. MR. HERNANDEZ: That he's still alive. BAILEY: Yes, that he's still alive. MR. HERNANDEZ: Okay JOE: Izzie. How you doing sweetie? IZZIE: I brought you some muffins. JOE: Okay. IZZIE: I made a lot. I was running out of room and I thought maybe you would like some. I'm a good baker. JOE: Yeah absolutely. Thank you. ADDISON: Dr Stephens. IZZIE: Please don't call me Dr. ADDISON: Okay...please don't call me Mrs. Shepherd. HA. That's funny. IZZIE: She's drunk. JOE: This is true ADDISON: So did you know about the slutty sex your slutty friend had with my super slutty husband? IZZIE: You should have a muffin. They're really good...and they'll help you. ADDISON: I may be beyond help. IZZIE: Yeah. Me too. Don't let her drive Joe. ADDISON (taking a bite out of a muffin): Mmm. Good. ---------- MEREDITH: She's still here (referring to Mrs. Burke who is still at Burke's bedside) CHRISTINA: She never leaves. She never even pees. I'm not entirely sure she's human. MEREDITH: Finn brought Izzie lunch. CHRISTINA: Oh you went to see Izzie? MEREDITH: Yeah, she wasn't home. But I'm taking that as a good thing cause at least the baking has stopped. But my point is, Finn brought Izzie lunch. He's that guy...the guy who brings your roommate lunch when she's sad. CHRISTINA: So you didn't end it? MEREDITH: He's the guy who brings your roommate lunch when she's sad. So I'm going to end it with Derek. CHRISTINA: Whatever. You know, I'm not selfish. I'm by his side. I..i took off all my clothes this morning. That's not selfish. And I'm going in for surgery. Selfish people don't save lives. MEREDITH: George... GEORGE (looking through the glass at a nurse who giggles): What? MEREDITH: You're flirting with that nurse. GEORGE: I'm young. I'm healthy. I got a life to live. MEREDITH: Is this about the panties? Are you still jealous? GEORGE: I'm not jealous. I'm just living my life. ---------- BEN: Do you have a boyfriend? Do you have a boyfriend? Do you have a boyfriend? RUTH: He's going to keep asking 'til you answer. CHRISTINA: Yes. I have a boyfriend. Can you look here? BEN: If I had a boyfriend, I would definitely not be as angry as you. Why are you so angry? Is it because you're frigid? Or he's frigid? Or.. CHRISTINA: Nobody's frigid. His mother called me selfish. BEN: Are you selfish? Cause you do seem kind of self-obsessed to me. RUTH: Ben. CHRISTINA: I'm a surgeon. In order to be a surgeon, a certain amount of self- obsession is necessary. My boyfriend gets that. If his mother doesn't. It's her problem. BEN: I used to have a boyfriend. When I got the tumer, he understood. He tried to understand. He loved me. But his mother didn't. My offending everyone offended her. And he said he didn't care what his mother thought. But in the end he did care, 'cause now it's two years later and I'm having brain surgery, and only my fat sister Ruth is with me. CHRISTINA: Benjamin, that was kind of rude. BEN: Sorry. ---------- CHRISTINA: If the tumor is removed, is it going to bring his old personality back? DEREK: If we get the tumor out and Benjamin lives, anything else is icing on the cake. ---------- CALLIE: I'm locking down the external fixator. BAILEY: There's no active bleeding, and the trajectory is clear. CHIEF: Karev, I want you to hold pressure on the liver. Put your hands down there and don't move. You with the saw, don't make a move until we get our hands on every vital organ around the tree trunk. The parents, have they said their goodbyes? BAILEY: Mom's not here yet. ALEX: And the father was too busy blaming him to say goodbye. BAILEY: Speak when you're spoken to Karev. I've had enough out of you today. ALEX: All due respect Dr. Bailey, I think you've gotten me mixed up with Izzie Stephens. CHIEF: All right, everybody, take your positions. Cut carefully. We'll get this thing out in pieces. ---------- DEREK: You see that right there? It's too close to the cavernous sinus. Suction. I've got a bleeder. The brain is starting to swell. His heart can't take it. Yang get those paddles. Move! CHRISTINA: Clear! ---------- BAILEY: Renal artery's collapsed. CHIEF: I thought you had that. ALEX: Hepatic artery is gone. BAILEY: BP is dropping. CHIEF: Oh he's bleeding. He's bleeding fast. Laps. ---------- NURSE: No change. Epi and atropine are in. CHRISTINA: Still in v-fib. DEREK: Shock him again. ---------- ADDISON: I've decided that I'm going to get really fat. Just as a stopgap. Just until I figure out another plan. I'm going to eat all of these muffins, and I'm going to really, gloriously fat. It's over. Over. OVER. I'm talking about the last third of my life, Miranda. How can it be over? How can it just end? Over a skanky pair of panties and... a bad tux? I am desirable, Amanda. BAILEY: Miranda ADDISON: Right. Joe, I'm desirable, right? JOE: I have a boyfriend. ADDISON: Be that as it may, I don't need me to tell you how wildly attractive I am. Wildly attractive. JOE: You are, and your wildly attractive cab is here. ADDISON: It is? JOE: You told me to call you a cab at 10:00. It's 10:00. ADDISON: I guess that's for the best, huh? BAILEY: I would say so. ---------- MRS. SEABURY: Hey. Can I buy you a drink? I have a lot of them. I'm trying one of everything. ALEX: Hey. Aren't you the cake lady from this morning? Aren't you supposed to be having surgery? MRS. SEABURY: Well that hasn't been decided yet. So you're a doctor? ALEX: Yes. I'm a doctor. MRS. SEABURY: Does that mean you can't drink with me? ALEX: Not at all. ---------- (George is throwing darts. He misses the board completely on the first sht.) MEREDITH: George... you're going to kll someone. What are you doing? GEORGE: I'm working it. If Callie can be bad, so can I. (He throws another dart which almost hits a seated woman.) WOMAN: Hey! Watch it! MEREDITH: George, Callie is hot. She's like really sexy...almost dirty hot. And she's hot for you. In my opinion, you could keep using the darts as wapon, or you could go get lucky with a sexy, hot, dirty girl. CHRISTINA: Where's he going? MEREDITH: To get laid. CHRISTINA: God, you know there is something wrong in the world when bambi's getting laid and I can't get 5 minutes alone with Burke. What are you doing? MEREDITH: Day's over. I'm flipping a coin. Call it. CHRISTINA: The brain surgeon should be heads. MEREDITH: Right. (She flips the coin, but we don't see what it lands on.) MEREDITH: Choice made. CHRISTINA: Oh that's it? You're going to base your choice on flipping a coin? MEREDITH: I'm taking a cue from Benjamin. Impulsive, honest. CHRISTINA: Benjamin died. He wasn't impulsive Meredith. He wasn't honest. He was sick and brain damaged. And now he's dad. ---------- BAILEY: Mr. Hernandez? May I? (She sits next to him and grabs an Izzie muffin.) You-you okay? Your son is going to be fine. MR. HERNANDEZ: He was off with his friends. I let him go off with that thing. I knew better. His friend, he has this driveway up on a hill. I just keep picturing him...i just keep picturing him going down that hill and I didn't stop him. I should have stopped him. BAILEY: Kids spin out of control sometimes. They spin out of control. You can't... MR. HERNANDEZ: Yes, you can. You can control them. It's your job as a parent to control them. Ever since the divorce, I only get to see him every other weekend. I never would have bought him that louge. I never would have let him go off on his own that way before. I went soft. I went soft when he needed me to be the father. ---------- MRS. SEABURY: I wish I'd had more fun. I didn't want to be a slult. I didn't want to be a tramp. I didn't have any fun. My ex husband...he had fun. All sorts of fun with all sorts of women who were a lot more fun than me. Nobody called him a slut. Why is that? Men can do it but women can't. ALEX: Women can. I know some who do. MRS. SEABURY: Not without being called names. ALEX: What do you care what people call you? I get called an ass, I don't care. MRS. SEABURY: I dont think you're an ass. ALEX: I don' t think you're a slut. MRS. SEABURY: You have a girlfriend Alex? ALEX: No, no girlfriend. MRS. SEABURY: So you're single? ALEX: Yes. Definitely. I'm single. MRS. SEABURY: I'm single too. And I'm very bad at this. Never actually had any practice. So..um. I'm going to go into the bathroom. And if I find myself alone in there after two minutes, I'll just touch up my makeup and come back out. But should you have any interest in fulfilling the wish of a potentially dying woman...you know where I'll be. (Alex follows her into the bathroom.) Callie is in her room...in her underwear and sunglasses...dancing around. Chief passes her room (jogging I think as he lives there too) and comes in. CHIEF: Getting some exercise Dr. Torres? CALLIE: Yes... Yes... Sir. Chief Webber. ---------- (Meredith is sitting at Joe's. In walks Finn, who comes over to her table.) FINN: Hi MEREDITH: Hi. Then in walks Derek, who also walks to her table. DEREK: Finn. FINN: Derek. MEREDITH: Thanks for coming. Both of you, thanks for coming. Here's the thing. I like you (to Finn) and I like you (to Derek). And I thought I had a choice to make I thought I had to decide. But I think I owe myself the chance to consider my options. FINN: Options? MEREDITH: There's this thing that allows for the considering of options. In the olden days they called it dating. DEREK: Dating? MEREDITH: Yes I'd like to try that. DEREK: You want to try dating. MEREDITH: Yes. FINN: Both of us? MEREDITH: Yes. I understand if you're not up for it. But, I really hope you are. (With that, she walks out.) FINN: You bowing out? DEREK: No, you? FINN: I don't think so. ---------- CHIEF: You're here first. You get all the best cases. Trauma comes in the middle of the night, you get first dibs. CALLIE: Exactly. CHIEF: I respect it. I do. And also I can't have it and you know it. CALLIE: You're throwing me out. CHIEF: Got no choice. This violates all sorts of codes and you know it. CALLIE: I have to go but you're allowed to live in your office? CHIEF: You noticed that huh? CALLIE: Yeah, I'm pretty observant. CHIEF: Guess if I'm throwing you out I have to follow my own rules. GEORGE (with flowers for Callie): Ok I'm jealous. I have a right to be jealous cause I don't want other guys touching your panties. He sees Callie half naked sitting on her bed with Chief, having coffee and leaves.[/i]) GEORGE: Great. That's great! CHIEF: Might want to clear that up. CALLIE: Yes sir. ---------- (Mrs. Seabury emerges from the bathroom, flustered.) JOE: You headin' out Dana? MRS. SEABURY: Gotta get back to the hospital Joe. Kick this cancer's ass. (Alex emerges...) ALEX: What do I owe Joe? BAILEY: Alex... about today... ALEX: Dr. Bailey, you were right. I shouldn't be getting physical with patients. ---------- MEREDITH: The body is a slve to its impulses. (Christina goes to Burke's room, where he's with his mom.) BURKE: I don't know if it's going to get any better mama. MRS. BURKE: Well I do baby. I do know. Christina, it's late. Preston needs his sleep. MEREDITH: But the thing that makes us human... CHRISTINA: I'm sorry Mrs. Burke, I was just coming to see if either of you needed anything before I went home for the evening. MEREDITH: Is what we can control. MRS. BURKE: We're fine. CHRISTINA: Good night Preston. Sleep well. Mr. BURKE: Hang in there MEREDITH: after the storm. After the rush. After the heat of the moment has passed. CALLIE (to George who is lying on a bench outside the hospital) The panties? GEORGE: Yeah... CALLIE: Not mine. GEORGE: Yeah? CALLIE: The jealousy? GEORGE: Yeah CALLIE: Insanely hot. GEORGE: What's with the suitcase? ---------- MEREDITH: We can cool off and clean up the messes we've made. (The group walks into Meredith's kitchen to find Izzie making more muffins.) IZZIE: I'm busy you guys, leave me alone. BAILEY: Izzie... I went soft. I had a baby and I swore it wouldn't change me. It just...it does change you. I got tired. I got busy, and I stopped teaching. I stopped teaching when you needed a teacher the most. IZZIE: You couldn't have stopped me. BAILEY: Yes I could have. You couldn't have stopped you, but I could have. And in the past I would have. I went soft, And I'm partly to blame for what happened. So, I want you to come back .you'll talk to the chief, well work it out. Because you're talented, and capable, and we all make mistakes - and it's enough muffins. (She grabs the spoon from Izzie's hand.) MEREDITH: We can try to let go of what was. ---------- ADDISON: I thought you were room service. DEREK: I feel terrible. I'm not proud of what I did. You deserve better. And I'm sorry about the panties. The prom. I'm sorry I did that. ADDISON: Yeah. I'm sorry you did that too. DEREK: Our marriage is over. ADDISON: Yeah I guess it is. DEREK: It's all my fault. It's incredibly sad (Mark walks out of the bathroom... steamy and naked, wrapping himself in a towel.) MEREDITH: And then again... MARK: Oh this is awkward. DEREK: I feel much better now.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x02 - I am a Tree"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x03: Sometimes a Fantasy Original Airdate: 10/05/06 Written by: Debora Cahn Directed by: Adam Arkin Transcribed exclusively for TVTDB.com INT. MEREDITH'S HOUSE (Meredith is lying in her bed.) MEREDITH (V.O.): Surgeons usually fantasize about wild and improbable surgeries. Someone collapses in a restaurant; we splice them open with a butter Knfe. Replace a valve with a hollowed-out stick of carrot. But every now and then, some other kind of fantasy slips in. (Meredith turns to her left, where Derek is lying in her bed, naked.) DEREK: Good morning. MEREDITH: Good morning. (Derek and Meredith kiss. Derek then looks over to Meredith's right, where we see Finn on the other side of the bed.) DEREK: Good morning. FINN: It is a good morning. (Meredith rolls over to face Finn.) Hi. MEREDITH: Hi. (They kiss.) FINN: Did you get any sleep last night? MEREDITH: Not really. DEREK: Do you want to get some now? MEREDITH: Not really. (Both Derek and Finn lean in towards Meredith, but a loud thump pulls her from her dream.) GEORGE: Ow! MEREDITH (V.O.): Most of our fantasies dissolve when we wake. Banished to the back of our mind. But sometimes we're sure, if we try hard enough, we can live the dream. (Meredith tries to go back to sleep. Another louder thump comes from the hallway. Meredith gets up from her bed and opens her door. In the hallway, George is wrestling with some cardboard boxes) GEORGE: Damn! Stupid! Ow! MEREDITH: I was having a really good dream and you ruined it. GEORGE: Sorry. These boxes... Oh there boxes! Callie said she was bringing her stuff over and... it's all here. MEREDITH: It's OK George, I don't mind. GEORGE: I don't mind either. Nah, I don't mind a bit. (George moves closer to Meredith.) Kick her out. MEREDITH: What? I can't kick her out. You were the one who told her she could move in. GEORGE: That she could stay for a couple of days, a couple of days! It's been over a week. Now there are boxes and she's using my computer and she's here all the time. Would you kick her out? Kick her out now. (Callie emerges from the bathroom, having just taken a shower. A red towel is wrapped around her.) CALLIE: Hey you guys might want to wait a little while, there's no more hot water. GEORGE (whispering to Meredith) : Do it. (Izzie emerges from her room.) IZZIE: Hey. Can I get a ride with you guys to the hospital? MEREDITH: You're going to the hospital? IZZIE: Yeah. I'm... I'm gonna go in. Talk to the Chief. See about coming back. Anyway, just let me know when you're leaving. (Izzie walks back into her room.) CALLIE: That's great, Izzie's coming back. That's great, right? MEREDITH: Mhhm. GEORGE: That's my towel. CALLIE: Oh, sorry. (Callie hands George the towel. She is now standing naked in the hallway. George takes the towel and walks off.) CALLIE: God, he's really moody in the mornings. MEREDITH (uncomfortable): Yeah. He's... yeah. CALLIE: Yeah. (Callie walks off and Meredith returns to her room.) INT. HOTEL ROOM (Mark is lying in bed. Addison is getting dressed.) MARK: You know I don't have to leave today. I could change my flight. ADDISON: No. No you can't, because I'm sober now and... there's work to get to and planes to be caught and real lives to be led. Thank you, truly Mark, for all of the sex. I really... I feel much better now, I do. And I...Well, now I have to go. And so do you. So, uh, do you want me to call you... a cab to the airport? (Mark pulls Addison back down onto the bed.) INT. BURKE'S APARTMENT (Burke is lying on a couch, throwing a ball against the wall. Cristina walks into the room.) CRISTINA: Why don't you try your bad hand. That's what that ball's for, right? Fixing your bad hand? (Using his bad hand, Burke violently throws the ball against a mug of coffee sitting in the middle of the room. The mug falls to the ground.) BURKE: Works. CRISTINA: There's coffee on the floor. (Pause) Fine, you know what, I'll clean it up. BURKE: Whatever. Leave it. It doesn't matter. EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Callie, George, Meredith and Izzie are walking from the parking lot to the hospital.) CALLIE: So I was thinking, since you shift ends after mine and I don't want to have to wait around, maybe I should get a copy of the house key. GEORGE: No. I like leaving together. You don't need a key. (They arrive at the hospital entrance. Izzie stops walking.) MEREDITH: Izzie? IZZIE: I'll see you guys in there. MEREDITH: Everything's gonna be fine. Bailey is on your side. And the Chief is... He is gonna put on his angry face, but he's on your side too. GEORGE: Everybody wants you back in that building. IZZIE: I know. I know. You guys go ahead, I'll be fine. I'm just gonna take a minute, practice my speech. MEREDITH: OK. (Callie, George and Meredith walk into the hospital.) INT. CHIEF'S OFFICE - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Richard is sat behind his desk. Bailey is standing on the other side of it.) RICHARD: I didn't ask you to convince her to come in... BAILEY: But I did. I did convince her. RICHARD: There is a whole series of disciplinary and rehabilitative steps that Izzie Stevens will have to take before we can... BAILEY: You can explain them to her. RICHARD: I never agreed to that. BAILEY: She didn't commit a crime. She's an intern, my intern. You wanna blame someone, blame me. Look, but that girl is coming in here today and... and you are going to talk to her. And you're gonna remember all the other surgeons you've known who've ever had a lapse in judgement that led to someone dying, or someone's arm falling off. Most importantly, you're gonna remember all the mistakes that you made when you were young and stupid. And you're gonna be filled with patience and compassion! RICHARD: That's what I'm gonna do? BAILEY (shouting): Yes! (Richard stands and crosses his arms.) RICHARD: Because I'm the boss... BAILEY: I'm... Look I didn't mean any disrespect, sir. I apologise. RICHARD: This is really important to you, personally? BAILEY: Very personally sir, yes. (Richard sits again.) RICHARD: Being the boss isn't as gratifying as it used to be. BAILEY: No, sir. RICHARD: Get out of here. INT. SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Cristina and Meredith are walking through the hospital hallways.) CRISTINA: I'm on my knees in a puddle of coffee, and he's lying on the couch playing with himself, you know? And not in a good way. MEREDITH: But he's recovering from surgery, and you've read the studies on recovery and depression in surgical patients. CRISTINA: Yeah well he's not a patient, he's Preston Burke. He's just milking it. Now he's got me fetching his food and the paper and his slippers like I'm a dog. (Cristina and Meredith reach the elevator. Derek steps out of it, carrying two cups of coffee.) DEREK: Hey! MEREDITH: Hi! I had a dream about you last night. DEREK: You did? What was I doing? Bringing you coffee? MEREDITH: You were definitely not bringing me coffee. But coffee's good. DEREK: I'm told dating starts with a casual invitation over a cup of coffee. MEREDITH: Does it? DEREK: So Meredith, would you like to go out to dinner with me tonight? How was that? Was that casual enough? That was good right? MEREDITH: So we're dating. DEREK: We're dating. Pick you up at eight. (Derek walks off. The elevator opens again and Finn steps out of it, carrying a paper bag.) MEREDITH: Hey! FINN: I was in the neighbourhood. Actually I wasn't but I decided you were worth the detour. MEREDITH: I had a dream about you last night. FINN: Was it a good dream? MEREDITH: It was. FINN: And what was I doing? CRISTINA: Yes Mer, what was he doing? MEREDITH: What's that? FINN: It's for you. It's a coffee cake. Best in the North-West. Figured I'd better soften you up so that when I ask you to dinner tonight you have to say yes. CRISTINA: Uh, dinner tonight? How about that? Are you free tonight, Meredith? MEREDITH: Actually, uh, I'm not free tonight. FINN: Well how about lunch? I could come here. MEREDITH: You're volunteering to eat hospital food? FINN: I love crappy food. MEREDITH: One o'clock? FINN: I'll be here. MEREDITH: OK. (Finn walks away.) CRISTINA: You had a dream about the both of them? Threesome? (Meredith smiles.) Nice. Just when I think you're boring, you rise. MEREDITH: I'm dating. (Meredith looks at her cup of coffee and her paper bag.) And it comes with snacks. EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex is walking from the parking lot to the hospital. He sees Izzie, who is still standing in front of the hospital entrance.) ALEX: Hey Iz. IZZIE: Hey. I'm going in to see the Chief. ALEX: Excellent. Back in the game, stepping up to the plate. Look I'm running late, I'll catch you later. IZZIE: Yeah, later. (Alex walks into the hospital.) INT. NURSES STATION - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex walks over to the nurses station, where Meredith, Cristina and George are eating the coffee cake.) ALEX: Izzie's back, that's good. Ooh, coffee cake. MEREDITH: I'm dating. (Alex reaches for the cake. Cristina grabs his arm.) CRISTINA: Touch that piece, lose a hand. (Bailey walks up to them.) BAILEY: Morning people. Grey, we're clearing the decks. I need you writing discharge forms. Yang, you're with Doctor Shepherd. Karev, as usual, you're with Doctor Montgomery Shepherd in OBGYN. O'Malley, Doctor Torres has requested you today in Ortho. (Bailey walks away.) CRISTINA: Was she smiling? ALEX: Izzie's back! (Cristina and Alex walk off.) GEORGE: "Doctor Torres has requested you"? MEREDITH: Just tell her George. Tell her you're not ready to move in together. And then try dating. Dating is fun. (George and Meredith walk off. Addison calls over to Alex.) ADDISON: Karev, we ready? ALEX: Isn't this getting old for you? ADDISON: Nope. Makes my whole day actually. (Addison's cellphone rings. She answers it.) Hello. Hello? Are you OK? No, uh, no I can't I've got to... Five minutes. (She hangs up. To Alex.) Go find something to do in the pit. ALEX: Personal problem... ADDISON: Go. (Alex walks off, jumping with joy.) INT. THE PIT - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex walks into the pit. A nurse hands him a patient's file.) NURSE: Fourth visit in three months. (Alex walks over to a young patient lying on a hospital bed, her parents on either side of her.) ALEX: I'm Doctor Karev, and you are... MEGAN: Megan Clover, and it is not as bad as it looks. MRS CLOVER: She fell in the playground, and there was a lot of blood and it looked deep. MR CLOVER: We know how this looks. Just so you know, we know how this looks, and it's not that. She just plays rough, you know. This is her file, and it goes back since way before we got her. ALEX: Before you got her? MRS CLOVER: We're her foster parents. She's such a great kid, but she plays really rough. MR CLOVER: She plays rough. ALEX: Right. Well why don't you guys go up to the nurses station and let them make a copy of her file for you, and I'll take a look at Megan's leg. MRS CLOVER: OK. We'll be right back honey. You alright? MEGAN: Yeah. MRS CLOVER: OK. (Mr and Mrs Clover walk over to the nurses station.) ALEX: You've got some mean looking bruises, you know that? (Alex notices a plaster on Megan's arm.) What, you hurt your arm too? MEGAN (defensively): Nothing big, I fell off my bike. (Alex rips of the plaster. Beneath it is a large wound which has been stapled together.) ALEX: Are those staples? What the hell? Did they do this to you? MEGAN: No! No! ALEX: Who did this to you? MEGAN: I did. I didn't want to go to the doctor again so I just stapled it. It's no biggie. ALEX: You stapled your own arm? MEGAN: Can you please just stitch up my leg so we can get out of here? ALEX: You're not going anywhere with those people Megan. They're never gonna lay a hand on you again. MEGAN: They didn't do anything. Please, they're my best parents I've ever had. ALEX: Megan... MEGAN: They don't hurt me. I can't be hurt. You don't believe me? Punch me in the stomach, right now. ALEX: The staples are in there pretty deep. I'm gonna have to give you a sht to numb the pain. (Alex prepares the needle.) MEGAN: I don't need a sht! ALEX: Trust me, you want a sht. It's swollen, it's gonna hurt like a... (Megan pulls the staples out of her arm.) MEGAN: There. Can I go now? ALEX: That didn't even hurt? (Megan motions Alex to come closer. He leans in towards her.) MEGAN (whispering): I have superpowers, OK? INT. PATIENT'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek and Cristina are standing around a patient's bed, Taylor Tressel.) DEREK: Mr Tressel's having a corpus callosotomy. What's that gonna look like? CRISTINA: We'll be severing some of the fibres that connect the right and left hemisphere of his brain to prevent the spread of seizure activity from one half of his brain to the other. DEREK: Good. (Taylor Tressel's wife, Leanne is standing in the corner of the room, talking to their baby.) LEANNE: Daddy's letting them chop his brain in half, because Daddy's a big dummy. Yes he is. TAYLOR: They're not chopping my brain in half, Leanne. DEREK: Taylor should function much like he does right now. LEANNE: Really? TAYLOR: I'm having five seizures a day Leanne. LEANNE: I know that. TAYLOR: You don't leave me in a room alone with the baby. You think I don't notice? You ask your mother to come by every time you need to take a shower. LEANNE: That's not the reason... TAYLOR: It's because you think I'm a danger to the baby. And I am. (Pause.) DEREK: Look if you're not sure, for any reason, we can wait. TAYLOR TRESSEL: I want to be able to take care of our baby. Please Leanne, we already agreed. Please. (Leanne nods to Derek and Cristina.) INT. X-RAY ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Bailey is checking some X-Rays. Alex walks into the room.) ALEX: I got this kid in the pit. She's psycho and her foster parents are beating the crap out of her. BAILEY: She tell you that, or you figure it out yourself? ALEX: She's covered in bruises, she's got a ten centimetre lac' on her arm with three staples in it. Like from a staple gn in your garage. BAILEY: Her parents did that? ALEX: Well she said she did it herself. She's got this whole bit about being a superhero and how she can take the pain. BAILEY: Well you call social services? ALEX: They're on their way down. BAILEY: OK, well have them speak to the parents while you run a cold pressure test on the girl. ALEX: A what? BAILEY: Ice water. Test her response to pain. At the very least it'll keep her distracted while the parents are questioned. (Alex leaves the room.) INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (George walks over to Callie, who is standing in front of a patient's room.) GEORGE: You requested me? CALLIE: Yeah, I did. You were weird this morning. GEORGE: I wasn't weird. Any more than I normally am in the morning. It's a weird time of day for a lot of people. It's bright and... crowded in our house in the morning. There's just a lot of people running around. CALLIE: Good. We have a radical case today. You're gonna be glad you're with me. (Callie and George walk into the patient's room. Callie hands George the patient's chart.) GEORGE: Thanks. (Callie pulls back the curtain around the patient's bed.) CALLIE: Mr Jasper Hovie! JASPER: Doctor T! You miss me? CALLIE: More than words can say. This is Doctor O'Malley. He's going to be helping out. GEORGE: Hi. JASPER: How are you doing? June twelfth baby! Two point four mile swim. A hundred and twelve miles on the bike and then a marathon. CALLIE: Mm, that is rockin'. JASPER: Am I gonna be ready? CALLIE: You bet your sculpted ass you are. JASPER: (laughing): I love this woman! GEORGE: You had three surgeries last year. CALLIE: Yeah, two rotator cuffs and an ACL. JASPER: All with Doctor T. GEORGE: And now you're having an ankle replacement? CALLIE: Yeah we waited over a year for a match. We're gonna replace his ankle with an ankle joint from a cadaver. JASPER: Who's my guy? CALLIE: Your donor? JASPER: Well he hasn't been dad long, right? CALLIE: Um, about a week. He's downstairs. JASPER: No way! Can I meet him? Pay my respects? CALLIE: I don't think you two are gonna have much to talk about. Doctor O'Malley's gonna handle your labs. (Callie leaves the room, laughing.) JASPER: Have you met my guy? INT. THE PIT - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex enters the pit carrying a bucket of ice cold water and walks over to Megan.) ALEX: Hey superkid. MEGAN: Where are my parents? ALEX: They're talking to some grown-ups. MEGAN: I'm not a moron. They're talking to a social worker. ALEX: Megan, these bruises, these cuts all over you, this isn't normal. MEGAN: I get in fights a lot, OK? �Cause I'm stronger than some of the other kids, so I end up defending the ones who are wimpy or small or whatever. ALEX: You know you're scrawny, right? I mean you're not one of the big kids. MEGAN: Yeah, but I can take them in a fight. ALEX: Alright. (Motioning to the bucket.) Put your hands in here. MEGAN: Why? ALEX: Because, we're gonna test your superpowers. MEGAN: You don't believe me? Punch me in the stomach, right here. Come on, punch me in the stomach. ALEX: Let's just stick to the water. Put your hand in here, and I'll... I'll race you. You can race me. (Megan stares at Alex.) What? Come one. What are you afraid of... afraid of a little ice? You afraid I'm gonna bat you? Come on, on the count of three. One. Two. Three. (They both plunge their hands into the cold water.) Pull your hand out when it starts to hurt please. MEGAN: What are you deaf? It won't start to hurt. Just think about it, OK? Superheroes are all kids with dad parents. Like me. And they all figured out when they were around my age that they could do things nobody else could. Like me. INT. JOE'S BAR (Addison walks over to a table where Mark is sitting.) ADDISON: You missed your place? MARK: Grounded on account of bad weather. ADDISON: It's a cloudless sky. That happens like twice a year in Seattle. MARK: Yeah but there's a typhoon in New York. Sit down, have a drink with me. ADDISON: No I'm not having a drink with you. I am working, at work. Not here. MARK :It's a coffee, alright? ADDISON: Mark... MARK: Joe, can we get the doctor a coffee? INT. THE PIT - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex and Megan still have their hands in the bucket.) MEGAN: And they think it's weird that the can do all this stuff, but don't tell anybody because people would freak out like you did. (Alex's face indicates that he is in pain.) What's wrong with you? ALEX: Son of a... (Alex pulls his hand out of the bucket.) Ow! Ah! Take your handout of there before it falls off! (Alex pulls Megan's hand out of the bucket.) MEGAN: You need to relax. ALEX: You didn't feel anything? Nothing? MEGAN: No. Nobody ever believes me. Like yesterday in school this kid said I was full of it. I had to let him punch me in the stomach twenty five times before he believed me. And once with a baseball bat. ALEX: What? INT. TAYLOR TRUSSEL'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Cristina is prepping Taylor for surgery.) CRISTINA: We'll have cardiology check this and then you'll be good to go. TAYLOR: Done! (Leanne hands the baby to Taylor.) There's my guy! Jake, we're almost done with this whole thing. LEANNE: We're not almost done. You still have brain surgery, God knows how many weeks of recovery ahead of you. CRISTINA: She's right. It's good to know what you're getting yourself into. LEANNE: Thank you. I appreciate that. CRISTINA: A recovery's hell on a spouse. It's gonna be harder for you than on him. LEANNE: My mom's staying with us for a week. Maybe she should stay longer. CRISTINA: You know it's... it's brutal being the caretaker. You'll be fetching the paper and then cleaning the carpet. TAYLOR: Honey... CRISTINA: And he wants ice in a cup, not a mug. It never stops. It's the caretakers that are the silent victims. You know, and when do you ever hear about them? TAYLOR: Honey take the baby... CRISTINA: Never. I never hear anything about them. Then it's always, you know, the patient this, the patient that. Silent victims. TAYLOR: Honey take the baby! (Taylor starts having a seizure. Cristina rushes and catches the baby. Taylor falls to the floor.) LEANNE: Taylor! CRISTINA (shouting): Someone help here please! INT. TAYLOR TRUSSEL'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek is examining Taylor.) CRISTINA: His seizure lasted for about a minute and he was out for five. TAYLOR: Is the baby OK? CRISTINA: He's fine. DEREK: It shouldn't interfere with his surgery. Assuming we're still going forward. TAYLOR: Honey? LEANNE: Yeah. I guess we don't have any other choice. DEREK: Alright Leanne, I'm gonna do everything I can, OK? It's not gonna be a walk in the park, but I'll take care of him. LEANNE: OK. EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Izzie is still standing outside the hospital entrance. Meredith walks over to her.) MEREDITH: Hey Izzie. You done with the Chief? IZZIE: Not yet. MEREDITH: Are you OK? IZZIE: I'm fine. What are you guys doing? CRISTINA: Uh, she's dating everyone with a pulse and, uh, I'm trying to get Burke out of the belljar. MEREDITH: Crap, I'm late for Finn. Gotta go. You sure you're OK? IZZIE: Yeah. (Meredith walks back into the hospital.) CRISTINA: She's playing the field, and I've got a wife! What did the justice. (An uncomfortable silence ensues.) CRISTINA: Uh... OK. (Cristina walks away.) INT. JOE'S BAR (Addison and Mark are sat at a table in the bar.) ADDISON: Here's the thing. We've both really enjoyed each other. Before and... now again. And I think that's a healthy release. I mean I think it's... healthy. (Mark strokes Addison's hair.) For everybody involved. And, um... But I do think that just because I made what can only be considered a transcontinental booty call doesn't mean that we should be trying to make something out of this. Stop doing that! (Addison slaps Mark's hand away.) MARK: Why? ADDISON: Because I can't think. MARK: We're good together. ADDISON: We aren't. You have to go home. MARK: Come back with me. ADDISON: You're insane. I'm not going back... I'm not going back to New York. MARK: �Cause it was just about sex? (They almost kiss. Addison slaps Mark.) ADDISON: Oh! Ah! (Mark smiles. Addison gets up.) ADDISON: Ok, uh, well. Goodbye. MARK: Goodbye. (Addison leaves the bar.) INT. NURSES STATION - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Richard walks over to Bailey.) RICHARD: Stevens was supposed to be in my office at nine thirty. Didn't show. Did you two change your minds? BAILEY: No, she said she was coming in. I'm sure she'll track you down. (Richard leaves the nurses station. Alex walks over to Bailey.) ALEX: We need to run a CT on this kid's abdomen. This superhero stuff's way out of hand. BAILEY: It's alright if she thinks she's a superhero. I believed in Santa Claus �til I was eleven. ALEX: Really? Did Santa ever ht you in the gut with a baseball bat? INT. GROUND FLOOR - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (George is walking down the stairs to the ground floor. Callie calls out to him.) CALLIE: Hey! The labs good? GEORGE: Yeah, they're all clear. (Callie breathes a sigh of relief.) So why does a guy have four ortho surgeries in one year? CALLIE: Because he's a serious athlete. His body takes a beating. GEORGE: Maybe his body can't handle it. CALLIE: Do you know how many triathlons the guy's done? GEORGE: Right. He's fifty five. Do you think an ankle replacement and twenty six miles a day is still a good idea? CALLIE: Um, what? You think we should fit him for a walker? GEROGE: He's ? the crap out of his joints and he's asking you to clear it up. CALLIE: Do you know how many hips I replace because people can't be bothered to walk around the block once a month? Sometimes we can make dreams come true, it's not all that often. When we can we should. Don't you think? GEORGE: Yeah, yeah but... CALLIE: George, don't worry about it. Hey I was gonna go home for lunch. You wanna come. INT. CAFETERIA - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (George sits at a table with Alex and Cristina.) GEORGE: Callie just called my house home. Where does she get that? CRISTINA: Shh. GEORGE: It is not her home. (George notices a pile of notes in the middle of the table.) What are you doing? ALEX: Meredith and Finn. (The camera pans around and we see Meredith and Finns sitting at a table on the other side of the cafeteria. Meredith laughs loudly.) CRISTINA: Fifty down on whether Shepherd shows up to challenge Finn to a duel. (George pulls some notes from his pocket.) GEORGE: Oh, can I be in the... with five? ALEX: That's not a bet that's milk money, dude. (Meredith laughs again.) CRISTINA: Oh and she's laughing! Because he made a joke, which probably wasn't funny. Hahaha! Oh you funny vet! GEORGE: I left the rest of my cash at home. Which I can call it because I live there, I'm not a visitor. ALEX: Hey, you're a loser. You like comic books, right? GEORGE: No. (George mouths "Yes".) ALEX: I got this kid, this patient. She thinks she's a superhero. What's up with that? GEORGE: Superhero? Superheroes look like anyone, like you or me. Maybe they're not someone that people necessarily notice as extraordinary. Maybe in their daily life they get walked on. But then... there's a moment, they get ht by a cosmic ray or bitten by a radioactive spider and then suddenly, something that has been inside them all this time, lying dormant, comes raging out... ALEX: Dude, forget I asked. CRISTINA: Oh here we go, here we go. OK. (Derek walks past Meredith and Finn's table and over to the stall to get a coffee.) CHIRSTINA: Come on, come one, come on. (Derek walks back past the table. Alex smiles and reaches for the money.) ALEX: Takes it like a man, and walks away. (Derek turns and walks back towards Meredith and Finn's table.) GEORGE: He's coming back. CRISTINA: Oh yes he is! Mhmm, give me my money! (Meredith sees Derek approaching.) MEREDITH: Oh God. I'm so sorry about this. FINN: What? (Derek reaches their table.) DEREK: Hi. You having lunch? MEREDITH: In fact we are. DEREK: Oh, it looks good. You know I'm sorry to interrupt, but I'm doing a corpus callosotomy.I thought you might like to scrub in. MEREDITH: Are you serious? When? FINN: I'm gonna guess now. DEREK: Look if you're busy don't bother, but it's nothing something that happens every day. MEREDITH (to Finn): He's cutting a man's brain in half. I'm sorry. I'm an intern and... I have a lot to learn. FINN: Apparently so do I. It's OK. (Meredith stands up.) MEREDIH: I'll call you tonight. DEREK: Oh you're busy tonight. She has a date. MEREDITH: I'm sorry Finn. FINN: It's OK. Go. DEREK: Take care. (Derek and Meredith walk away. Cristina and Alex start laughing.) ALEX: I think I owe you another. CRISTINA: Yeah I think you do! EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Izzie is still standing in front of the hospital entrance. Burke, arm in a sling, walks over to her from the parking lot.) BURKE: Coming or going? IZZIE: I don't know. BURKE: Me neither. INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek and Meredith are walking down a hallway.) MEREDITH: That was brilliant, really. DEREK: I thought so, yes. MEREDITH: Well it wasn't because now I owe Finn another date. DEREK: That's OK, he needs all the help he can get. This isn't gonna be easy for him. MEREDITH: Oh, you think he can't take the heat? DEREK: I think he's out of his league. But you gotta hand it to the guy for trying. (They arrive at Taylor Tressel's room.) DEREK: This is Mr Tressel. Prep him. MEREDITH: I thought you said we were operating. DEREK: We operate at four. I'm not just gonna slide you into the OR. You gotta work a little too, right? INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Cristina walks past Richard's office and sees him talking to Burke. She smiles, and keeps walking.) INT. CT SCAN ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex is getting Megan ready for a CT scan.) MEGAN: How much is this gonna cost my parents? ALEX: That's not something you need to be worrying about. (Alex lifts Megan onto the scanner.) MEGAN: But this is so stupid. I'm fine. (To a nurse) Hey! Punch me in the stomach, right here. ALEX: Stop telling people to punch you in the stomach. You need to lie down and not move. Whichof your superfriends can do that? (Bailey is behind the computer monitors on the other side of the room. Addison enters the room and walks over to her.) ADDISON: Hey Miranda. You needed a consult? BAILEY: Yeah. Just waiting for a picture. (Pause.) Haven't seen you since you were sucking down Martini's at Joe's. ADDISON: Uh, yeah, that was just... I'm over him now. BAILEY: Good. ADDISON: We talked about... BAILEY: A lot of things. ADDISON: I remember... BAILEY: None of them. ADDISON: Is that for the best? BAILEY: I think so. (Alex walks over to Bailey and Addison.) BAILEY: She came in for sutures, but she's a walking accident and has got an off the charts pain threshold. I'm thinking... ADDISON: Chronic insensitivity to pain, yeah. I've seen it in babies. It's often diagnosed young. But if she's been bounced around in the foster care system... (An image appears on the computer monitors.) ALEX: Doctor Bailey, what the hell is that? INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Burke leaves Richard's office and walks down the hallway. George is walking in the other direction.) GEORGE: Doctor Burke! BURKE: Oh O'Malley, how are you? GEORGE: Good, how's your arm? BURKE: Good, good. Slow, you know... GEORGE: Yeah. Well, uh, we all miss you round here. You're missed. (They both turn walk away. Burke calls back to George.) BURKE: Oh, O'Malley. (George turns around.) Stevens is standing outside the hospital. (Burke walks away.) INT. OPERATING ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek is operating on Taylor Tressel.) DEREK: I am retracting the right hemisphere. What do we want to avoid? Grey? MEREDITH: We want to avoid retractors on the sagital sinus. DEERK: That's right. Why? CRISTINA: To prevent sinus thrombosis. DEREK: Excellent. I saw Doctor Burke today. He looked good. CRISTINA: Yeah, he's great. He was, uh, meeting with the Chief. DEREK: Working out the leave? CRISTINA: The what? DEREK: His leave of absence. CRISTINA (a whisper): His what? EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (George walks over to Izzie.) GEORGE: You've been standing out here for a while. (Izzie points a couple of metres to her left.) IZZIE: For a while I stoop over there. GEORGE: Maybe you should sit down. IZZIE: I don't wanna sit down. GEORGE (firmly): Maybe you should sit down anyway. IZZIE: Go inside George. GEORGE: Izzie, seriously... IZZIE: I hate the bride thing. I hate the pictures in the magazines of the girl with the veil and the flowers that she's sniffing. Like it never occurred to her to stick her nose in there until there was a camera pointed at her. I hate the idea of bridesmaids, and the colors, and does the bustle make my ass look bigger or smaller? I hate the whole thing. And I never wanted to be that girl. That girl is stupid. And shallow. Why the hell are that girl's thoughts running through my head? GEORGE: Izzie... (George pulls on Izzie's arm. She pushes him away.) IZZIE: I'm going to do it George. I'm going to walk through those doors. I just need to make sure that when I'm standing in front of the chief of surgery I am not thinking about my wedding dress. And that's gonna take another minute. INT. JASPER HOVIE'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (George is standing by Jasper's bed, reading him a consent form.) GEORGE: Now with surgeries of this kind there's always risk of infection if the bone is... JASPER: Bla bla bla. I could die on the table. Where do I sign? GEORGE: I think we should talk through the rest of this consent form first. JASPER: Fourth surgery in a year. I know the routine. When I come back in for my hip, you can give me the speech in French. GEORGE: You're having hip surgery? JASPER: In the fall. After Patagonia. GEORGE: Do you still want to meet your guy? INT. PATIENT ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Bailey and Addison are talking to Megan's parents.) BAILEY: Megan's bleeding internally. MR CLOVER: What? BAILEY: It appears there's some severe trauma to her abdomen. MR CLOVER: You're trying to ask us if we ht her. We've said ten times in ten different ways... BAILEY: Social services cleared you and I'm sorry that we suggested you were mistreating her. But she's hurt pretty badly so we're gonna need to operate. MRS CLOVER: Oh my God... ADDISON: Megan may have a chromosomal condition that causes her to not feel any pain when she's injured. It would explain why she gets hurt so often. BAILEY: We need to do some genetic testing before we can be sure, but let's assume she'll need to be monitored very closely from now on. (Alex enters the room.) ALEX: We got OR Three. MRS CLOVER: So surgery is the only option? BAILEY: I think it is. I know you've been put through the wringer already today, but I need to ask you to trust me on this one. ALEX: Where is she? Where's Megan? (They all look over to the wheelchair where Megan was sitting. It's empty.) INT. PATIENT ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Cristina steps out of the elevator and walks into Burke.) CRISTINA: Hey. A leave of absence? BURKE: Yeah, I'm on my way home. Just making some notes for the chief so he can reassign my open cases. CRISTINA: Because you're taking a leave of absence? OK that's like, what, a week? BURKE: It takes as long as it takes. CRISTINA: Well it's not gonna take that long. You're already three weeks into PT already, so... BURKE: Oh come on. Recovery from brachioplastic surgery is measured in months Cristina, years. Not weeks. The surgery's considered a success when the patients flex the elbow. Some patients never move their shoulder again. Some don't recover sensation, they don't recover dexterity, they simply don't recover. CRISTINA: Yes, but you're not one of those. BURKE: Really? Says who? (Burke walks away.) INT. MORGUE - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (A body is lying on a gurney in the middle of the room. George and Jasper enter.) JASPER: That's my guy? GEORGE: No that's not him. That's someone else we lost last night. Came in for a lipo. Died on the table... complications. JASPER: Didn't know they did liposuction on men. GEORGE: People do a lot of stuff they don't need. And, you know, the older you get... (George brings out another body.) Here he is. (He pulls back the sheet covering the dad man's head. He is an old man, with grey hair.) That's your guy. JASPER: Well that can't be my guy. He's really old. Bones are probably brittle. What are they doing using a guy that old as my donor? GEORGE: He's two years younger than you are. INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Callie is looking at the whiteboard.) CALLIE: What the hell happened to my ankle allograph? I had OR Two at three. Anybody wanna tell me where it went? NURSE: It was cancelled. The goy went home. CALLIE: Why the hell would he do that? (George walks into the hallway. Angrily) Hey! (Bailey runs into the hallway.) BAILEY: O'Malley! We've lost supergirl and she's bleeding into her abdomen. Start looking in corners! INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek and Meredith are leaving an OR.) MEREDITH: Do you think you cut enough of the fibres out or are you going to have to go back in? DEREK: We'll see if the seizures are under control. If not we'll go back in for the last few. MEREDITH: Well do I get to scrub in on that too, or only if I'm in the middle of a date with somebody else? DEREK: I wouldn't consider a meal in the cafeteria a date. MEREDITH: Don't denigrate the competition. (Addison sees Derek and Meredith talking from a distance. She walks away.) DEREK: I have nothing but respect for Finn, who has the courage to woo a woman with a tuna salad. Keep an eye on Taylor. If there's a problem page me. I'll see you in the lobby at eight. (Alex shouts over to Meredith.) ALEX: Hey Grey! I lost a kid. Help me look for her before she bleeds out in one of our bathrooms. MEGAN: What's her name? INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex and George are searching for Megan.) ALEX: Megan! GEORGE: It's not easy. If you think you're a superhero, you're not gonna let someone come at you with a Knfe. There's no way to tell what it can do to your powers. I mean, you take away Green Lantern's ring, Hal Jordan is still a hero but it creates a crisis of confidence when... ALEX: Come on Megan! GEORGE: ...you've worked hard to hone your strengths. Look at, uh, Batman. Robin just marches into the Batcave and he says, you know, "Here I am. I'm gonna live here too. Give me some tights and I'm taking your towel." I mean Batman, he fought for his powers, you know? He honed his strength... ALEX: Dude, you don't stop this I'm gonna punch you in the face. (Callie marches over to George and Alex, obviously angry.) CALLIE (angrily): O'Malley! ALEX: Good luck with that... (Alex walks away.) CALLIE: I arranged for you to see an incredibly cool surgery and you talk my patient out of it? GEORGE: No, I didn't. CALLIE: You asked me what I thought. You didn't like what I said so you went behind my back! Jasper's gone. He cancelled the surgery! GEORGE: I expressed an opinion. I suggested that, you know, not everything has to go at warp speed. It is all warp speed with you! It is all... You know, you ankle hurts, lets cut it off! CALLIE: You intimidated my patient. You got a problem, you bring it to me. GEORGE: I'm not ready for us to move in together! CALLIE (dry): And if you weren't a toddler, if you could use your words, then maybe you could have said that the first four times I asked you. And then I would have said "Oh that's funny, me neither. I'm looking for a place. I'll be out in a week." GEORGE: Really? Because remember you... CALLIE: George, save it. I'll be out in an hour. (Callie walks away.) INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Meredith is looking for Megan.) MEREDITH: Megan! Megan? (She opens the door to a supply closet. Inside, Addison is sitting on the floor, crying.) MEREDITH: Oh, hi. ADDISON: Weren't you just up on three? MEREDITH: I was. We lost a patient, a little girl, and I was just... ADDISON (exasperated, in tears): Look why don't you just pick a floor and stay on it, and I'll pick a floor and stay on that, because I really need a moment or two without you. Your face shows up in my head, your panties show up in my husband's pocket. Really you're everywhere, and I need a moment or two without you. MEREDITH: I get that. ADDISON: Thanks. (Meredith walks out and closes the door behind her.) INT. HALLWAY - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex is still searching for Megan.) ALEX: Megan? Come on, enough already. (Alex spots something moving under a gurney. He looks under it and sees Megan.) ALEX: We've got half the hospital looking for you. Your powers of invisibility are well intact. Get up! (Alex lifts Megan to her feet.) MEGAN: You're a hosebag, you know that? ALEX: And you have a potty mouth. MEGAN: Nobody's cutting me open. ALEX: Hey! It's surgery, we do it al the time. In fact, it's all we do. MEGAN: You can't keep telling my foster parents I'm defective. They can't afford surgery, it's too expensive. (Alex lifts Megan into a wheelchair.) ALEX: They can handle it. MEGAN: They'll send me back. ALEX: Dude, that's stupid. They've got their own personal superhero. Nobody sends back a superhero. MEGAN: I thought you said I didn't have superpowers. ALEX: Yeah well you don't, but take away Green Lantern's ring, the guy's still a hero. Right? INT. TAYLOR TRESSEL'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Taylor is recovering from surgery. Derek is checking everything's OK.) DEREK: OK, close your eyes. Squeeze them tight. Good, OK, can you squeeze my fingers? (Taylor squeezes Derek's fingers.) Fantastic. Let's wiggle you toes for me please. Very good! Very good. (to Leanne) Flying colors. LEANNE: He's always tested well. TAYLOR: I kicked ass on the... what's it called? LEANNE: The SATs. DEREK: Now can you tell me, what is this? (Derek shows Taylor a pink plastic mug. Pause.) LEANNE: Honey? DERKE: Take your time. LEANNE: Honey what's that called? It's right in front of you. (Pause.) CRISTINA (pointing to the mug): Can you see this here? TAYLOR: I can see it, I just can't think of the... DEREK: That's alright, it's OK. Take your time. See sometimes the names of things are tough. So try again. (Leanne stands up.) LEANNE: What's my name? TAYLOR: I can't... LEANNE (showing Taylor the baby): What's his name? TAYLOR: I... I know what it is, I... I just... LEANNE (frantic): What's his name? DEREK: Leanne, let's just give him a moment. (Pause.) LEANNE: What's his name? TAYLOR: I... INT. OUTSIDE OF TAYLOR TRESSEL'S ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Derek, Cristina and Leanne are standing outside of Taylor's room.) LEANNE: He named the baby. He named him after his father. How do you not know the name of your own baby? DEREK: He knows who the baby is. See the right side of the brain senses the emotional connection to the baby, it just can't communicate to the left brain, where the words are formed. The pathway to the two sides has been compromised. He needs to make new pathways. LEANNE: How long is that gonna take? DEREK: Well he'll get there. Recovery's hard work. It's a learning process, you need to be patient. (sht of Cristina, deep in thought.) You need to help him. He can't do this without your support. INT. OPERATING ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Bailey is operating on Megan. Alex is assisting her.) ALEX: Man, she wasn't kidding about the baseball bat. BAILEY: We need more lat pads. Just keep'em coming. ALEX: Are your going to reset the liver? BAILEY: We need to try and do a debrievement. Look at this. Everybody wants a life without pain. What does it get you? She needs to be on a poster somewhere. To remind people pain's there for a reason. (Cut to: Megan is lying in her room, recovering from surgery, her parents standing over her. Alex watches through the window.) INT. OPERATING ROOM - SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Alex walks up to Bailey.) ALEX: Megan's sab. I ordered a Repute H and H in two hours. (Bailey is looking out of the window to the hospital entrance.) BAILEY: She been out there all day? (We see Izzie standing in front of the hospital entrance. Bailey and Alex look at each other.) EXT. MEREDITH'S HOUSE (Meredith and Derek walk up to the front door of the house.) MEREDITH: Dinner was good. DEREK: Dinner was excellent. MEREDITH: Are you coming in? DEREK: I don't know. Am I? MEREDITH: Well you could come in for a drink, or a... coffee. I owe you one from this morning. DEREK: Yeah you do. (Finn appears in the front garden.) FINN: Hi! DEREK: Finn... FINN: I didn't think you guys would be here. I just wanted to drop this off: strawberry ice cream. A patient made it for me. DEREK: A patient's owner. FINN: It's made from scratch. Real strawberries. MEREDITH: I love strawberry ice cream. DEREK: And he remembered... FINN: I did! I just thought I'd leave it by the door. DEREK: You didn't think it would melt? FINN: Well, you take your chances. DEREK: Worked out for you. FINN: Mhmm. MEREDITH: What exactly is going on here? DEREK: He's crashing our date. FINN: Where do you think I got that idea? DEREK: I didn't crash your date, it was professional. FINN: You can't operate without her? DEREK: I certainly operate well with her. MEREDITH: Enough! This is not dating. I want moonlight, and flowers, and candy, and people trying to feel me up. Nobody is trying to feel me up. Nobody is even looking at me! I'm an intern. Do the two of you have any idea how much effort it takes to do all this? (She motions to her body.) I'm waxed, and plucked, and I have a clean top on. (Shouting) And the two of you are looking at each other. DEREK: Meredith, it's... MEREDITH: No! My fantasy is not two men looking at each other. FINN: We didn't... MEREDITH: No talking until on of you figures out how to put on a date! I want heat, I want romance, damn it I wanna feel like a freakin' lady! (Meredith walks into the house and slams the door behind her. Pause. She opens the door, takes the ice cream from Finn and slams the door again.) MEREDITH (V.O.): The fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good. INT. HOTEL (Addison walks into a hotel lobby.) ADDISON: Hi, I'm in room twenty two something... 2214. If anyone calls, I'm not here. PORTER: Yes ma'am. (Addison walks away. Callie walks into the hotel lobby.) MEREDITH (V.O.): And twice as much pleasure is better. CALLIE: Hi. Checking in please. PORTER: Certainly. Room for... CALLIE: One. MEREDITH (V.O.): That pain is bad. (Richard walks into the hotel lobby.) RICHARD: Room 1817. Any messages? MEREDITH (V.O.): And no pain is better. (Mark walks into the hotel lobby.) MARK: Checking in please. Room for one. (Smirking) Somewhere on the twenty second floor if you've got it. PORTER: I'll take a look. (Richard spots Mark.) RICHARD: Doctor Sloane? MARK: Doctor Webber! RICHARD: What are you doing in Seattle? MARK: I don't know. I have a thing for ferry boats. MEREDITH (V.O.): But the reality is different. INT. BURKE'S APARTMENT (Cristina opens the door to the apartment. Burke is sat at the table, reading a book. She pulls several frozen chickens out of her shopping bag.) BURKE: You cooking for me? CRISTINA: I am not. You can take a leave of absence if you want to, but you're not going to sit on your ass all day. You're gonna work hard, you're gonna get every bit of your strength and dexterity back. BURKE: Really? How? (Cristina grabs a butcher's Knfe and slices one of the chickens in two. She then throws Burke a bag containing a scalpel and other surgical instruments.) CRISTINA: Put it back together. MEREDITH (V.O.): The reality is that pain is there to tell us something. EXT. OUTSIDE OF SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL (Izzie is still standing in front of the hospital entrance. Alex walks over to her and puts a coat around her shoulders.) ALEX: Iz... IZZIE: I'll do it. ALEX: Izzie... IZZIE: I can do it, Alex. I know I can. ALEX: Does it hurt? IZZIE: Yeah. ALEX: Where does it hurt? IZZIE: Everywhere. ALEX: Maybe it hurts for a reason. Come on, let's go. (Alex leads Izzie back to the parking lot.) EXT. MEREDITH'S HOUSE - MEREDITH'S ROOM (Meredith is sitting on her bed, eating her ice cream.) MEREDITH (V.O.): And there's only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomach ache. And maybe that's OK. (Izzie appears at the door.) MEREDITH: Hey! IZZIE: I didn't go in today. MEREDITH: Maybe tomorrow. (Izzie sits down next to Meredith. George appears at the door.) MEREDITH: Hey George. GEORGE: Callie moved out, which is a relief. (Unconvincingly) Oh, I'm so relieved. (Izzie motions for George to eat ice cream with them.) IZZIE: It's strawberry. (George sits down on the bed and eats some ice cream.) GEORGE: It's good. (He hands the tub and spoon back to Izzie.) IZZIE: You left spit on the spoon. GEORGE: No I didn't. IZZIE: You did a little. (George puts the spoon back into his mouth and pulls a face. They all laugh.) MEREDITH (V.O.): Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreams.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x03 - Sometimes a Fantasy"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x04: What I Am Original Airdate: 10/12/2006 Written by: Allan Heinberg Directed by: Dan Lerner MEREDITH: At some point during surgical residency, most interns get a sense of who they are as doctors, and the kind of surgeons they're going to become If you ask them they'll tell you. They're going to be General surgeons. Orthopedic surgeons. Neurosurgeons. Distinctions that do more than describe their areas of expertise. They help define who they are. Because Outside the operating room, not only do most surgeons have no clue who they are, they're afraid to find out. (Everyone gets ready for the day in the locker room, and Meredith, looking very sickly, swallows down a big gulp of Pepto. ) BURKE: Time me. CHRISTINA: I've been timing you. BURKE: My last time was off by 6 seconds. CHRISTINA: Well it's not about speed, it's about accuracy. And your sutures are fine. BURKE: My sutures are textbook. The edges are perfectly aligned. CHRISTINA: You're ready. BURKE: I need more chickens. CHRISTINA: No more chickens. It's bad enough that Meredith is dating a vet, I'm not dating a chicken surgeon. Stop second guessing. it's not like you. Your hand is fine and Shepherd will clear you for surgery. (Burke looks to his hand which is trembling) BURKE: Christina? CHRISTINA: Yeah baby? BURKE: Nothing. CHRISTINA: Okay. GEORGE: So Izzie left the house this morning. That's a good sign. ALEX: Yeah. GEORGE: Are you okay? MEREDITH: I'm just... not feeling like myself. ALEX: O'Malley has that effect on Women. Ask Dr. Torres. GEORGE: What's that supposed to mean? ALEX: You threw her out on her ass. GEORGE: I did not. Who told you that? ALEX: Torres. Don't worry. I get it. She's hot... but she's not for you. GEORGE: Why is that? ALEX: Cause she's hot. ---------- GEORGE: Callie! CALLIE: Hmmm GEORGE: Come on, Wait. Before you start yelling...you were right. I should have told you about how I felt about you moving in. Not that you were moving in. Its just.. I'm not good at the whole talking about feelings thing. CALLIE: I bet you told Meredith how you felt though, didn't you? And Izzie? You don't seem to have any trouble talking to them George, but me? BAILEY: Let's go people. I've been in surgery since 2 AM. I'm in no mood. MEREDITH: George... George (as he's walking away) I miss you... (He runs off to join the group) CHRISTINA: No cutting... No cutting! ALEX: Yang you're late. CHRISTINA: Hey I got here before George. GEORGE: I'm here! I was here! BAILEY: Nice of you to join us Yang. CHRISTINA: Oh what are you smiling about? Arent you supposed to be on the Gynie Brigade ALEX: Yeah, whatever. CHRISTINA: (to Meredith's pained expression and hand on her stomach) Woman troubles? MEREDITH: Men troubles. I think this dating two guys thing is getting to me. The stress of it. Finn, Derek. Derek, Finn. I think I'm getting an ulcer. CHRISTINA: McDreamie and the vet are making you sick? MEREDITH: I just need to make a choice and get it over with. ---------- GEORGE: Shawn Sullivan. 62. Had minimally invasive bypass surgery two days ago to remove a blockage from his LAD. MR. SULLIVAN: I'm all better now, thank you George. So what do you think Miranda? Can I stop being a burden to you good people and go home? MRS. SULLIVAN: You need to stop interrupting the Doctors Shawn. You need to listen to what they say. MR. SULLIVAN: I need to get back to the dealership. They're going to can me if I'm gone to long. MRS. SULLIVAN: They can't can you sweetie, you're the best salesman they've got. BAILEY: What do you sell? MR. SULLIVAN: Cars. MRS. SULLIVAN: My Shawnie could sell...anything. BAILEY: I believe he can. What he can't sell me on is going back to work before he gets his oxygen levels up. So put that oxygen back on Mr. Sullivan before I even think about letting you out of here. And if I do, I want your word: nothing fried, no alcohol and no cigarettes. MR. SULLIVAN: Oh you're tough Miranda. BAILEY: I need your word Mr. Sullivan or I'm not going to sign those discharge paper. MR. SULLIVAN: I give you my word. BAILEY: Alright then. Mrs. Sullivan you need to go to the front desk to fill out some paper work. Maybe you can take your husband home. ---------- ADDISON: How we doing guys? ALEX: She's at 8cm. But the baby's still at minus 3 station. Husband: So what do we do? Pattern breathing? Squatting? ALEX: Dude... Squatting? ADDISON: Dr. Karev, how do we normally proceed in a situation like this? ALEX: We monitor the baby's progress, If the descent stops entirely during active labour, then we perform a c-section. WIFE: Not on me you don't. I'm sorry Dr Karev, but Jeff and I have a natural birth plan. And Dr. Montomery promised us... ADDISON: I promised we would do what we can. But if your labour intensifies and the baby doesn't descend... WIFE: Well then we wait until he does. Right? I'm not having a c-section. ALEX: A c-section is actually the safest way... WIFE: To what avoid a lawsuit. ADDISON: We don't have to decide right now. WIFE: I'm not going to miss out on an experience my body was made for just because it's more convenient for you. ---------- BAILEY: You alright Dr. Grey? MEREDITH: Yeah, Dr. Bailey, I just need to make a choice is all. (She looks to an approaching Derek) DEREK: Karev. Dr. Grey, I am clipping a basilar tip aneurism. Any interest. (He sees Addison, and pauses) ADDISON: Dr. Bailey can I get... (And she sees Mark.) ADDISON: Oh my God. (Derek follows her view and also notices Mark) DEREK: Oh...my...God. MEREDITH: Oh my God... GEORGE: Is that... CHRISTINA: McSteamy. (Meredith throws up on the floor and Bailey runs to her) BAILEY: Grey? GEORGE: No Mr. Sullivan don't light that! (Mr. Sullivan has lit a cigarette, which causes an explsin as he is on Oxygen. Thus, the top half of his body is set on fre.) DEREK: Somebody get a fre extinguisher! BAILEY: Call a code red! ---------- MARK: Make sure he has an airway. Sir can you hear me? BAILEY: No he's out. ht his head. Small hematoma in the occipital region. MARK: Get him to the burn unit until he's sab and get a CT. GO! BAILEY: Right away Dr. Come on. ---------- DEREK: You're burning up. MEREDITH: I'm fine. DEREK: You don't look fine. (Christina hands her a glass of water) DEREK: You look beautiful but you don't look fine. CHRISTINA: Now I'm going to throw up. MEREDITH: Go. You have aneurisms to clip. And surgeons to confront. DEREK: You going to be alright? MEREDITH: Yeah. DEREK: Will you look after her, please? CHRISTINA: Mmm hmm. (Derek goes after Mark) You think I'd miss this? ---------- CHIEF: What kind of idiot lights a cigarette in a hospital. DEREK: Apparently people do idiotic things all the time. (Derek, Chief and Mark exchange a glare and Chief walks away, going up the stairs. Derek follows) DEREK: Chief. Chief! ADDISON: I thought you were going back to New York. MARK: I thought it was time for a change. ADDISON: You can't do this. You can't be here. (Meredith, Christina, and George watch, pointing and giggling) MARK: Sure I can. It was easy. Sublet the apartment. Sold the practice. ---------- DEREK: He is a liar. And a cheat. CHIEF: The man is one of the finest plastic surgeons in the country. His department will generate twice the revenue neurosurgery does. DEREK: Money, is that why he's here? ---------- MARK: Why do you think I'm here? ADDISON: This...this is why I left you. MARK: I thought you left me for Derek. DEREK: I left New York because of him. CHIEF: He was your best friend. For years. DEREK: Right up until the point where he had sex with my wife. CHIEF: We all make mistakes. ---------- (Meredith again, vomits) CHRISTINA: Holy crap. Are you pregnant? (Everyone takes a break from arguing to stare) ADDISON: Oh this is just perfect. (Derek runs down the stairs to get to Meredith) An adulterous love child. DEREK: (to Addison) Goes along with an adulterous sociopath. (to Meredith) Meredith... BAILEY: Uh uh, you've done enough already. DEREK: Meredith... MRS. SULLIVAN: Oh Dr? I finished filling out the paper work. When do you think I can take Shawnie home? BAILEY: (looking rather nauseous herself at all that's going on) Uhhh... ---------- CHRISTINA (who is poking around Meredith's stomach): So who's the father? MEREDITH: I'm not pregnant CHRISTINA: I didn't think I was pregnant when I was pregnant either. But the fever, abdominal pain, non-stop vomiting? MEREDITH: I'm not pregnant. CHRISTINA: You don't know who the father is, do you? MEREDITH: It would have to be Derek's. There's no way it could be Finn's. CHRISTINA: You haven't had sex with the vet yet? You gotta get out of that relationship immediately. MEREDITH: I can't be pregnant, can I? CHRISTINA: With McBaby! (She pokes too hard and Meredith squirms.) MEREDITH: Was I this mean to you when you were pregnant? CHRISTINA: I thought you said you weren't pregnant. BAILEY: She's not. We'll have to run more tests. MEREDITH: In that case can I have some morphine? ---------- ADDISON: I want you checking the foetal monitor every thirty minutes. ALEX: What's the point? The baby's no where near where he needs to be and you know you're going to have to cut her open. So why not get it over with. ADDISON: That's not what the patient wants and it's our job as doctors to balance the desires of the patient against the risk of complication, so if the patient wants a natural birth... ALEX: So if the patient wants a natural birth, it's not surgical. So why not just cut me loose and let me in on a surgery I might actually learn something in. ADDISON: Like Sloan's burn case? ALEX: I'm going into plastics anyway ADDISON: Do you think that Mark Sloan has anything to teach you? He's just like you. He's only looking out for himself. ALEX: So what? The patient's looking out for herself. You're looking out for yourself... ADDISON: No I'm not actually. ALEX: Well maybe you should be. ADDISON: Go. Go find Sloan. Do whatever you want just get out of my face Karev. Go! ---------- (Derek is examining Burke's arm, but just gracing through it, not really paying attention) DEREK: I'm not saying he's a bad doctor. BURKE: Of course not...listen... DEREK: I'm saying he's a bad person. The man has no morality. No ethics. BURKE: But there's no pain, no numbness but um... DEREK: The question is do we really want our interns learing from someone like that? BURKE: Derek my arm? DEREK: Oh, yeah. It's good. It's great. You have great range of motion. I can clear you for surgery. BURKE: Really? You're sure? DEREK: Yeah. Absolutely. Complete recovery.(Christina walks in) You're not having any problems right? CHRISTINA: No! I've been doing his physical therapy with him every night. He's perfect. He's Burke. DEREK: Good. Glad to hear it. Welcome back, Dr. Burke. BURKE: Yeah. CHRISTINA: Dr. Bailey wanted to know if you still needed an intern. DEREK: No I'm fine. How's Dr. Grey? CHRISTINA: Oh, she's not pregnant...with anyone's baby... so... yeah (she leaves) ---------- JOE: Izzie. Good to see you. You want some lunch? IZZIE: Actually I'm meeting somebody. JOE: Do I know him? IZZIE: Actually I don't even know him. JOE: You've never met? Know what he looks like? (She nods no) So for all you know he could be an older, rugged ex-marine looking dude? (The man Joe describes walks into the bar and over to Izzie) MR. DUQUETTE: Dr. Stephens? IZZIE: Mr. Duquette. MR. DUQUETTE: Please... call me Denny. ---------- MR. DUQUETTE: You're a pretty girl. Not Denny's type at all. IZZIE: Really. What was his type? MR. DUQUETTE: Dark haired girls. Smart. Not that you're not smart. You're a doctor, obviously. IZZIE: I was. I was a doctor. I'm not anymore MR. DUQUETTE: That's right. Dr. Webber said you quit. IZZIE: You talked to Dr. Webber? MR. DUQUETTE: Yes. He said if I wanted to hear the whole story I should talk to you. So if you don't mind Dr. Stephens... IZZIE: Izzie. MR. DUQUETTE: Izzie... if you don't mind. I need to hear the whole story. ---------- ALEX: Dr. Sloan? MARK: You my intern? ALEX: Yeah. I'm your intern. MR. SULLIVAN: My face... MARK: No need to talk Mr. Sullivan. Now, it's going to be painful for a while. MR. SULLIVAN: My face... MRS. SULLIVAN: He wants to know that you can fix his face. He needs to know that you can fix his face. MARK: I'm going to remove the brned tissue and bandage your face with a dressing of live cells. MRS. SULLIVAN: And that'll do it? His face will be back like it was. Cause his face...such a nice face...He's a salesman. MARK: I'm going to do absolutely everything I can Mrs. Sullivan. We'll need a neuro consult before we operate. ALEX: Anything else? I mean I can do debriedment or... MARK: Actually, there is one more thing...bone dry cappuccino. Make it a double. ---------- MEREDITH: You're a good friend. CHRISTINA: You're so high right now. MEREDITH: Actually, you're my best friend in the whole entire world. CHRISTINA: Now I just feel sorry for you. MEREDITH: Why? Cause I could die today? CHRISTINA: This is why I hate being around stoned people. MEREDITH: If I did die today, I'd only be remembered as the slutty intern who dated two doctors. CHRISTINA: One doctor. One vet. MEREDITH: Derek, Finn, Derek Finn. I'd die as the girl who couldn't make a choice, right? CHRISTINA: Probably, but none of that matters cause you'll be dad. BAILEY: Dr. Grey, you've got a fever, high white count. And tenderness over McBurney's point which suggests... CHRISTINA AND GEORGE: Appendicitis. MEREDITH: (a little behind the rest) Appendicitis... BAILEY: Dr. O'Malley, prep Dr. Grey for surgery. You're scrubbing in. GEORGE: I am? For Meredith's appendectomy? MEREDITH: Uhh... Am I the only one who remembers last time George scrubbed in on an appendectomy? He almost klled the guy. Sorry George. GEORGE: I don't have to scrub in, Dr. Bailey. I could just... uh... unless you want me to... not going to happen again. BAILEY: That good enough for you Dr. Grey? MEREDITH: You're pretty. (They all go to leave) George! Ice chips. ---------- GEORGE: Hey CALLIE: I heard Meredith's having an Appy. GEORGE: It wasn't my idea to scrub in. CALLIE: George...i just thought maybe we could have a late supper at the archfield. GEORGE: Why would we have dinner at a hotel? CALLIE: Cause they bring it to your room. GEORGE: You're staying at the Archfield. How are you affording that? CALLIE: I still have some secrets O'Malley. And if you come see me tonight, I might just show you one or two. ---------- BAILEY: Dr. Sloan. I was just checking on the Sullivans, and... how is he doing? MARK: And you are? BAILEY: Dr. Bailey...we met this morning. I was the resident on Mr. Sullivan's bypass. MARK: Well I don't need a resident on this case. BAILEY: Excuse me, I wasn't asking to be your resident. I was asking how my patient was doing. MARK: He's not your patient any more. CHRISTINA: Congratulations. I told you. BURKE: Yeah CHRISTINA: What? BURKE: Shepherd shouldn't have cleared me. CHRISTINA: Burke you're back. You're back and you're fine. Burke? BURKE: What? CHRISTINA: What? BURKE: He just... shouldn't have cleared me. NURSE: Another contraction, Dr. Montgomery. ADDISON: You're fully dilated, but the baby is only at minus 2 station. REBECCA: We just need more time. ADDISON: We don't have it Rebecca. His heart rate is slowing with each contraction. If he starts having late decals... REBECCA: Is he having late decals? ADDISON: Not yet but... REBECCA: Then stop trying to scare me into having a surgery I don't want. I have a birth plan. Look I...I'm not going to be one of those weak-ass women who give all that up the minute things start to get scary. ADDISON: Rebecca, a birth plan is just that...it's a plan. Jeff: I think she's just trying to be cautious... REBECCA: Get out! Get out get out! ---------- BAILEY: Since when do you get out? ADDISON: Apparently I'm not myself today. BAILEY: Never would have figured Mark Sloan to be your type. ADDISON: He's not...he's not! What is he doing here? He's not supposed to be here. I can't have him here. He's supposed to be in New York. I can't...i can't function with him here. I'm professional here, people respect me here. But when he's here I'm just... I'm... BAILEY: A woman who gets the hots for man candy and cheats on her husband? ADDISON: That is rude. And unkind, and completely true. What am I going to do? BAILEY: For starters, you can keep your knees closed in his presence. ADDISON: Miranda... BAILEY: You asked. And also, you can remember that no man... not Derek, not Mark, defines who you are. ---------- DEREK: Well let's see. Your complexion is flushed. Abdominal wall is tender. Aren't you happy to have a boyfriend who works in the hospital? MEREDITH: You are just one of many men I happen to be dating at the moment. DEREK: Really? How many of us are there? MEREDITH: Well...there's you... and Finn... and... DEREK: Well forgive me for pointing out the obvious, but I don't see any practitioners of veterinary medicine at your bedside. FINN: You would if you turned around. DEREK: Finn. FINN: Derek. MEREDITH: Oh, can I just say how much it helps that I am on drugs right now. ---------- FINN: So DEREK: So how's life in the animal kingdom? FINN: What about you Derek? Slow day? (Derek's pager goes off) FINN: If you need to take off it's... DEREK: No, I can stay. FINN: Great MEREDITH: Great. DEREK: Great GEORGE: Okay let's get you prepped and ready for surgery...Oh. Dr. Sheppherd. Dr. Finn. MEREDITH: Now all my boys are here. So handsome. And such good kissers. GEORGE: Oh God... FINN: Excuse me? GEORGE: She's on drugs. MEREDITH: He's an excellent kisser. FINN: You two dated? DEREK: You didn't know? MEREDITH: It wasn't a date so much as a...disatrously uncomfortable sexual experience. GEORGE: Oh..i can't..be here. BAILEY: None of you can be here, this woman's being prepped for surgery. Which means all of you need to leave. GEORGE: Gladly. BAILEY: Now! Not you O'Malley. MEREDITH: Dr. Bailey, all my boyfriends are here. BAILEY: Not for long. Say goodbye Dr. Grey. DEREK: I'll be here when you wake up. FINN: So will I. BAILEY: Now! ---------- Christina looks around for Burke, and finds him with a corpse. CHRISTINA: What are you doing? BURKE: What does it look like I'm doing? CHRISTINA: You're not in med school, you don't need to practice procedures on a corpse. BURKE: Better than on a real patient. CHRISTINA: Your hand is fine. BURKE: Right. CHRISTINA: Are you mad at me? You are mad at me! BURKE: Just...forget it. Don't worry about it. You have patients CHRISTINA: I'mon call for the pit. BURKE: Christina! CHRISTINA: I'm not leaving. BURKE: Time me. ---------- IZZIE: The transplant went better than anyone expected. He was better. So much better. But Denny, before the surgery, he was hooked up to a machine... MR. DUQUETTE: You're not answering my question. IZZIE: I'm trying. I'm getting there. It's complicated, and his heart... MR. DUQUETTE: I don't give a damn about the medicine. I know what klled my son. He had a bad heart. He had a bad heart for a long time. I get that. What I don't get is how a girl like you goes from being my son's doctor to being his...fiancé on the very day he was supposed to get a new heart. What I don't get is how you got him to propose to you hours before he died. ---------- DEREK: Mr. Sullivan...i want to recommend a night of observation in the ICU before Dr. Sloan proceeds with your surgery. MARK: Is that really necessary Dr. Shepherd? The longer we wait, the higher the risk of infection. DEREK: I think it's important that we attend to potential life thrat injuries before moving on to cosmetics, Dr. Sloan. MARK: He's not here for a face lift Derek. He's a burn victim. DEREK: Why did you ask for a consult if you've already established a course of action. MARK: Because I thought you were good enough at your job to put aside the personl and do what's best for the patient. DEREK: My job? You're telling me how to do my job? MRS. SULLIVAN: Please, I'm sure it's complicated. And I know Shawnie's sorry for lighting that smoke. He was trying to keep his word to Dr. Bailey. He told her he wasn't going to smoke when he got home. And he was just trying to keep his word. He knows he did wrong. But he's...he's a salesman, that's who he is. So could you just fix his face? Could you do that for us please? MARK: If what happened between me and Addison is so unforgivable, than how do you justify what happened with you and Meredith? DEREK: What the hell are you talking about? MARK: You want me to be the bad guy, fine. But I'm not the only bad guy here Derek. You and me...we're the same. ---------- MEREDITH: Addison? Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd? ADDISON: You bellowed Dr. Grey. MEREDITH: Hi. ADDISON: You're certainly aren't you? (Addison looks at her chart) But you're not pregnant. MEREDITH: No. Are you okay? ADDISON: Fine. How are you? MEREDITH: I'm trying to choose between two men. ADDISON: Okay...well good luck with that. MEREDITH: How did you know Derek was the one? ADDISON: Excuse me? MEREDITH: I know you hate me and all, and you don't owe me anything. Nothing. No... thing. What was I saying? ADDISON: Derek MEREDITH: Right. I want him to be the one. But I would know he's the one right? You knew, right? ADDISON: You don't.. I didn't know...i just...Derek's the kind of guy...i just knew he wouldn't hurt me. Not on purpose anyway. Not the way I hurt him. MEREDITH: He hurt me...when he chose you. ADDISON: I should have let him go. I should have stepped aside, been a better person. I should've...a lot of things. MEREDITH: Me too. A lot of things. ADDISON: I don't hate you. MEREDITH: How come we never talked like this before? ADDISON: The only reason we 're talking like this right now is because I know you won't remember a single word of this when the drugs wear off. ---------- NURSE: Dr. Karev, you need to see this. ALEX: I'm off the case, page Dr. Montgomery Shepherd. NURSE: We did... but... ALEX: Oh man... DEREK: Were you just talking to Meredith? ADDISON: Yeah. DEREK: What? ADDISON: Don't um... don't hurt her again. ALEX: You planning on klling a woman today? ADDISON: What? ALEX: The C-section you should have performed on Rebecca this morning? At this point it may be too late. For her and the baby. Nice work Doc. ADDISON: Get an OR and an anaesthesiologist. We're doing a crash C-section right away. ---------- ADDISON: He's in distress. We have to get you into the delivery room and get him out right now. REBECCA: No... ADDISON: This is no longer a conversation. I am your doctor and I am responsible for your life, and your baby's life. And I am not about to lose either one of you. Are we clear? (to alex) You just going to stand there Karev or are you going to do this? (Alex follows her to the OR) ---------- IZZIE: Mr. Duquette, Denny... he was my patient for months... MR. DUQUETTE: And the minute he died you quit your job. IZZIE: Because I couldn't just... MR. DUQUETTE: Four years of medical school, that's a whole lot of debt. How were you planning on paying that back? Did you think that Denny wouldn't pay for everything? IZZIE: Why are you... what are you talking about? MR. DUQUETTE: I'm talking about protecting my son. IZZIE: But where were you when he needed you? I was there. I was working 80 hour weeks and I was still always there. He had so many surgeries. So many procedures. He was so scared. Where were you then? Where were you? You may not get me, but you don't have to, cause I don't get you either. I don't get how a father abandons his dying son. MR. DUQUETTE: Wait! Is that what he told you? That I... that his mother and I abandoned him? Well he didn't tell you the truth? ---------- CHRISTINA: What? What? (She sees his shaking hand) Oh Burke. I thought that...you told me that... BURKE: I can't hold it still long enough to attach the graft. CHRISTINA: You told me that... BURKE: I can't... CHRISTINA: You told me that your hand was fine. BURKE: But it's not fine! You wanted to believe it was fine. You wanted it to be fine. You wanted...i wanted...damn it! My hands are the only things that I have that are of any value to me. To you. CHRISTINA: Not to me. BURKE: Yes, to you! You want Preston Burke. My hands...these are who I am. If I can't do this...if I can't finish this surgery, than... CHRISTINA: What if I held the vessel? What if I hold the vessel. Come on. Burke, if I hold the vessel... BURKE: Then I can attach the graft. CHRISTINA: So if I put my hand...(she holds the vessel and Burke sews it up seamlessly) CHRISTINA: No one has to know. ( he nods his head in agreement) ---------- CHIEF: I know you're mad at me, but Mark Sloan is the best in his field. Any surgical unit in this country would be lucky to have him. DEREK: You did what you thought was best for this hospital CHIEF: I did. Are you alright? DEREK: Can I ask you a personal question? Why did you leave Meredith's mother? CHIEF: I could have left Adele. I could have gone away with Ellis. But I would have had so much baggage...so much guilt. Ellis couldn't see it but i...i never would have made her happy. Not like she deserved to be happy. I was a better man for walkig away. I loved her enough to walk away. ---------- MEREDITH: Ohh on the table keep me draped. Too many people have seen me naked already. I'd like to keep whatever dignity I have left. McSteamy. McSteamy WOO HOO. MARK: Is that what they're calling me? MEREDITH: Yeah, but I don't think you're supposed to know that. MARK: How's my favorite dirty mistress? MEREDITH: Haven't you heard? Now I'm an adulterous whore! ---------- REBECCA (her son has just been born and handed to her): He's so beautiful. So beautiful. Thank you. ADDISON: You're welcome. ---------- BAILEY: The appendix is out. Now what do I do O'Malley? GEORGE: You invert the stump into the cecum and pull on the purse strings. BAILEY: Show me. GEORGE: Okay. Clamp. ---------- MARK: Where's my coffee Karev? ALEX: I got pulled into an emergency c-section. MARK: Too bad. I was going to let you scrub in on a real surgery. Maybe next time. If OB can spare you. See you. ---------- DEREK: Finn FINN: Derek. DEREK: She's still in surgery. FINN: Yeah I figured I'd wait for her here. Meredith tells me that you fish. DEREK: She does? FINN: She tells me a lot of things. Have you been up to Cornet Bay? It's mostly Chinook, some rock fish. DEREK: You fish? FINN: As much as I can. My wife hated it. DEREK: You had a wife? FINN: Yeah. She died. DEREK: I'm sorry. I didn't know. FINN: Meredith doesn't tell you a lot of things, only me. DEREK: Funny. FINN: You know when I heard she was sick...people come through appendectomies all the time. Shell be fine right? DEREK: You really like her don't you? FINN: Yeah. DEREK: You're a good guy. FINN: Yeah I think so. I hope so. DEREK: Okay. FINN: See you later. ---------- MR. DUQUETTE: It was Doctor after Doctor. Everybody had a different opinion. A worse opinion. Before that, Denny had never been sick a day in his life. You know the thought of having to bury your own son...his mother and I didn't handle it very well. One day we came home and found a note saying he didn't want us to have to watch him die. And he left. We though he was d*ad all this time. IZZIE: I had no idea. Believe me, if I had known...i never would have let him get away with that. MR. DUQUETTE: I believe it IZZIE: I worked my way through med school. I paid off my debt. MR. DUQUETTE: Sorry about before. You don't have to explain... IZZIE: I do. You're his dad an you're trying to protect him. And I want you to know, that I've paid off all my debt. And when I met Denny, I was going to be a surgeon, so I didn't need his money. I had everything I needed. I had everything I needed until... MR. DUQUETTE: We miss him. God we miss him. IZZIE: Yeah. I um... yeah. (Mr. Duquette pulls an envelope out of his pocket) IZZIE: What is this? MR. DUQUETTE: It's for you. It's from Denny. ---------- CALLIE: Hey. Ready to go? GEORGE: I'm sorry I have to do this. I have to go home. It's Izzie. CALLIE: It's always Izzie or Meredith. It's never me. GEORGE: That's not true. CALLIE: Who am I to you George? Am I your girlfriend? Am I somebody you mess around with? Do you even know? Well guess what? Now you don't even have to bother to figure it out. ---------- BAILEY: How's he doing Mrs. Sullivan? MRS. SULLIVAN: We're just getting an update now, Dr. Bailey. MARK: Surgery went well. We removed the necrotic tissue, applied the live cells and if his body responds in three to four weeks MRS. SULLIVAN: He'll have his face back. MARK: Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan...your face may never be exactly what it was. Even if everything goes perfectly well, there will be scarring. MRS. SULLIVAN: But he's a sales man. He has such a nice face. BAILEY: You have an incredible wife, Mr. Sullivan. And half a dozen car salesman in the lobby waiting to visit you. Your face may be different. But you know as well as I do, it's not about what you look like, or your job or how successful you are. Its about having people in your life who you love, and who love you. That's all that matters. ---------- (Derek walks in on Meredith and Finn laughing) DEREK: How you feeling? MEREDITH: Mortified. FINN: I was just explaining the Meredith on Morphine experience. DEREK: You don't remember? MEREDITH: Was it memorable? DEREK: I'll let Finn tell you. I'll come back FINN: Actually I've just been sent on a mission to get the patient some ice chips. Be right back. MEREDITH: How badly did I embarrass myself? What? (He sighs and sits on her bed) DEREK: You deserve to be with somebody who makes you happy. Someone who won't complicate your life. Someone who won't hurt you. He's the better guy, Meredith. Finn's the better guy. (Her smile fades) MEREDITH: Derek... DEREK: I'm walking away. ---------- IZZIE: He left a message...Denny. He left a messge for his parents the night...His father gave me the number and the code but um...I just couldn't do it alone. (George grabs her hand) ---------- MARK: Addison, can we talk? ADDISON: I don't want you here Mark. I think I've made that abundantly clear so if you insist on staying, just know that we're co-workers and nothing more. (to Alex) Karev! As of right now, you are officially off my service. And for what it's worth...i think you're gonna miss me. ---------- MR. DUQUETTE (his voicemail): Hello, you've reached the Duquettes... (Izzie punches in the code and listens) DENNY: Dad, mom it's me. I'm calling from Seattle Grace hospital where the beautiful, talented, and incredibly stubborn Dr. Isobel Stephens has just given me a brand new heart and promised to marry me. I know we've had our differences and I'm sorry we've been out of touch. ---------- CHRISTINA (to Burke chopping up chicken): More chicken surgery? BURKE: I'm making you dinner. DENNY: Believe it or not, I was trying to make everything better. I know you're angry but I hope you cn forgive me. Turns out, sometimes you have to do the wrong thing... ---------- Callie(at Joe's): McSteamy right? MARK: You must be a friend of Meredith's. CALLIE: Not really. Dr. Torres. Callie. MARK: Mark Sloan. CALLIE: Bad day? MARK: You could say that. You? CALLIE: Oh yeah.. MARK: So what have you heard about me, exactly? CALLIE: Mostly things that involve the words dirty and bad. MARK: Right. I guess there really is no starting over, is there? Can I buy you a drink Callie? (She finishes off her drink, and walks toward the door) CALLIE: Only if you have it delivered to my hotel room 'cause I'm off to bed. DENNY: Sometimes you have to make big mistake to figure out how to make things right. CALLIE: You coming? ---------- FINN: So what time do they let us visitors start visiting in the morning? MEREDITH: You shouldn't do that. FINN: I don't mind. MEREDITH: No really, Finn. You shouldn't do that. FINN: So it's Derek? MEREDITH: I'm sorry. FINN: Can I ask why? MEREDITH: You're a great guy, you're a wonderful guy. And you may even be the better guy. But.. FINN: He's the one. MEREDITH: And I wish he wasn't. FINN: He's going to hurt you again. And when he does, I won't be here. Take care of yourself Meredith. DENNY: Mistakes are painful, but they're the only way to find out who you really are. I know who I am now. I know what I want. I've got the love of my life, and a new heart. And I want you guys to get on the next plane out here and meet my girl. Everything's going to be different now. (George opens the envelope Mr. Duquette gave Izzie. Inside is a cheque to her for $8,700,000.) DENNY: I promise, from here on out, nothing's ever going to be the same. I love you. Bye.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x04 - What I Am"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x05: Oh, The Guilt Original Airdate: 10/19/2006 Written by: Zoanne Clack, Tony Phelan, Joan Rater Directed by: Jeff Melman MEREDITH: First, do no harm. As doctors we pledge to live by this oath. But harm happens. Then guilt happens, and there's no oath for how to deal with that. IZZIE (cooking): Good morning! GEORGE: I thought we were done with the whole muffin thing. IZZIE: This isn't muffins, it's breakfast. Mer needs a good, solid breakfast. First day back after the big surgery. MEREDITH: Are you okay? IZZIE: Of course I'm okay... I'm a millionaire. Fruit? What do you guys think about B&B's? I'm thinking about opening B&B in Vermont where the foliage is, you know? GEORGE: Maybe you should go back to bed. IZZIE: Can't. I'm going to the hospital MEREDITH: Are you going to talk to the chief? IZZIE: Nope. I'm going to clean out my locker. I could buy a hotel. How much do you think a hotel costs? (Izzie pours orange juice spilling it all over her 8.7 million dollar check.) GEORGE: That's eight million... eight million dollars does not like to have juice spilled on it. MEREDITH: You have to take that to the bank today. It's making me nervous in the house. IZZIE: I will. Just as soon as I clean out my locker. I'm fine. Really I'm fine. Denny loved me. He wanted me to have this money; he wants me to be happy. So I'm happy (She plasters on a huge smile.) Juice? ---------- MEREDITH: She's losing it. She almost battered and deep fried an 8 million dollar check this morning. CHRISTINA: That kind of money, I'd buy my own hospital and stock it full of sick people. Vavuloplasties and ruptured aneurisms. Hmm. GEORGE: You are a psycho, you know that, right? CHRISTINA: Okay, I'm not the one with an 8 1/2 million dollar check I won't cash. IZZIE: Stop talking about me. I'm fine. I'm cleaning out my locker and I'm going home. Mer is the one with the problems. MEREDITH: Well you haven't told McDreamy that you dumped McVet. CHRISTINA: You haven't done that yet? ALEX: Dude, tell him already. GEORGE: She's scared. MEREDITH: I am not scared. Derek walked away. He walked away. Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe he's happy. He's got Addison here. He's got Mark here. He's got a lot to deal with. And I'm not going to make him feel guilty. I'm being an adult here, and I am not going to drag him into our whole... Izzie is the one with the big check! MEREDITH (voice over) Guilt never goes anywhere on its own. It brings its friends, doubt and insecurity. ---------- MARK (to Callie's ringing cell): That your boyfriend again? CALLIE: I do not have a boyfriend. MARK: Then why the guilty face? CALLIE: You were sexier when you weren't talking. ---------- BAILEY: Am I keeping you O'Malley? (George is on his cell calling Callie, who is still in bed with Mark) M&M ten in minutes, people. ALEX: We get to go to M&M? GEORGE: Even if we haven't finished our rounds? BAILEY: Even if. I want all of you at the M&M today. ALEX: Yes! BAILEY: People die in this hospital. Once a month we gather to discuss how our actions as physicians contributed to the deaths. This is a serious exercise. MAN: Dr. Bailey. CHRISTINA: George Alex, you get good seats. Mer and I will get snacks. ALEX: Yeah. BAILEY: Mr and Mrs. Niles. MR. NILES: We kind of got turned around on our way to admitting. BAILEY: Oh, not a problem. Dr. Karev, uh, Mrs. Niles is scheduled for a mastectomy tomorrow. Why don't you show her and her husband up to the fifth floor. Is this the little man? He's adorable.(Mr. Niles is carrying their baby) MRS. NILES: He's not so adorable at 4 in the morning and won't take a bottle. Can we just get to the room (She walks off.) MR. NILES: It's been a rough week. She had to stop nursing. Gus here just won't eat. BAILEY: Why don't I take you up? (She grabs the baby.) You can try a little sugar water on the bottle just until he gets used to it. MEREDITH: Does that woman have breast cancer? What is she, 30 years old? ALEX: New baby. She probably thought the lump was a milk gland. You learn things on the vagina squad CHRISTINA: Focus people. M&M. Insults flying, residents covering their asses. Our bosses getting kicked in the teeth instead of us. Seats. Snacks. ---------- CHRISTINA: Hey, I didn't know you were coming to the M&M. BURKE: You brought snacks? CHRISTINA: Yeah. You okay? No surgeries today right? I mean I'm ready if you need... BURKE: No. No surgeries. ---------- GEORGE: Callie. Hey...did you get my message? Messages. CALLIE: Yeah. I gotta get a seat. GEORGE: Alex is saving us a bunch if you want to sit with us. CALLIE: No. (They enter the Morbidity and Morality seminar, a.k.a. the M&M.) ---------- GEORGE: She's trying to make me feel guilty about the other night with Izzie. MEREDITH: I thought you said you apologized. GEORGE: I did. I have. I'm done. I am not apologizing any more. I'm enjoying life. I'm loving the M&M. CHIEF: Okay people. Let's begin. Patient #34986 died last month from complications following a heart transplant. Dr. Burke will present. ALEX: You guys isn't patient #34986... MEREDITH: Denny... CHRISTINA: $8 million. 8 million could get us on a plane to somewhere far, far away. ---------- (Izzie is cleaning out her locker.) She takes out her stethoscope and listens to her heart. ---------- BURKE: Cause of death was an embolus that dislodged from the suture line and caused a CVA with brain stem herniation. (People raise their hands with questions.) GIRL: So the company line is he died from a CVA? BURKE: There is no company line. That's how he died. MAN: Let's get back to this patients need for emergent transplant. You're saying the patient's left ventricle had been weakened by the LVAD malfunction? BURKE: His left ventricle was weakened by the fact that he had congestive heart failure. DR. SAVOY: Please Dr. Burke. We all know the LVAD was cut by an intern. BURKE: The events remain unclear. GEORGE: I'm going to my happy place... DR. SAVOY: It's unclear to you 'cause you were in the ER with a gn wound. Why aren't we hearing from Dr. Bailey? She was the senior physician on the case. BURKE: I'm the attending on record. BAILEY: Yes, I was the resident in charge. (She takes the stand.) BAILEY: Dr. Burke has summarized the medical facts of this case. Are there any questions for me? (Everyone raises their hands.) ---------- DR. SAVOY: You recently had a baby, Dr. Bailey? BAILEY: I don't see what that has to do with... DR. SAVOY: Sleep deprivation coupled with wild swings in hormone levels are factors that could cloud anyone's judgement. BAILEY: I sleep just fine, Dr. Savoy. DR. SAVOY: Really? Cause if a patient died due to my poor decision making, I'd lose a little sleep over it. CHIEF: Let me remind everyone that our purpose here is not to place blame. This is a forum to discuss mistakes in patient care and learn from them DR. SAVOY: well so far I haven't heard Dr. Bailey admit to a mistake. CHRISTINA: Why don't they just put a bllet in the back of her head? MEREDITH: It would be more humane. DR. SAVOY: So for a period of several hours, your interns were running amuck in teh hosptal unsupervised. BAILEY: I'm waiting for a question. DR. SAVOY: The question is where were you? BAILEY: There was the sh*ting, and the ER was chaotic. DR. SAVOY: The ER is always chaotic. Did you page them during this time? BAILEY: Yes, I paged them several times. DR. SAVOY: So apparently, they thought it was okay to ignore your pages. Dr. why do you think your interns have so much contempt for your authority? ALEX: You don't know what the hell you're talking about! BAILEY: Dr. Karev, sit down. (He sits and reveals Izzie standing in the door way, her hand at her temple.) GEORGE: Izzie... BAILEY: Next question ---------- LAWYER: Derek says that neither of you brought your assets into the marriage. ADDISON: Well I had my trust fund. And a sparkling personality. And the futon couch. DEREK: Yes, Addison had a very ugly, very heavy futon couch. ADDISON: What happened to that couch? DEREK: We gave it to Mhark. She can have him. ADDISON: I don't want him. DEREK: Ok so that's settled. What else? LAWYER: Aside from Addison's trust fund which will remain in her name, we'll spilt everything, stocks, bonds, 401K's down the middle. The only thing that gets complicated is the real estate. DEREK: Well let me make this simple. I'd like to keep my trailor and the land is Seattle. Addison can keep the rest. ADDISON: Hold on... LAWYER: That's the house in the Hamptons and the Brownstone overlooking central park. That's very generous of you. ADDISON: Hold on. He's up to something. I came here to fight over CD's and books. Go to wr over a crystal vase. What are you up to Derek. DEREK: The divorce is my fault, let me take responsibility. ADDISON: We both had affairs. DEREK: You had a one night stand with Mark. ADDISON: Actually, it was... DEREK: Ok it was two nights. You made a mistake. Meredith and i, we had a relationship. Make these changes. I'll sign them today. ---------- MEREDITH: You weren't supposed to be in here Izzie. GEORGE: You shouldn't have had to see that IZZIE: It's fine. I'm fine. Clearly the doctor thing wasn't working for e. so go about your business. Run labs. Cure cancer. I'm fine. GEORGE: You're not going home. Either you hang out with us or we'll call your mother. MEREDITH: She's just a few hours away, and I'm sure she wouldn't mind coming and staying with you. All day. IZZIE: You wouldn't. GEORGE: Dialing. IZZIE: Woah! Hey, hey! Ok. I'll just... go hang out in the locker room. ---------- CHIEF: What is she doing here? She has no business in this room. ALEX: What are you looking at me for? I didn't have anything to do with this. I didn't have anything to do with ANY of this. GEORGE: I'll stay with her today if that's okay. I''ll update charts an I'll run labs and keep an eye on her, if that's okay. She shouldn't be alone. CHIEF: Fine. GEORGE: Dr. Bailey... MEREDITH: We just want to say.. CHRISTINA: We're sorry... MEREDITH: About the M&M BAILEY: No. You do not get to apologize to me for this. You do not get to feel better. Neither do I. Get to work. O'Malley keep an eye on her. GEORGE: Yes Dr. Bailey. ---------- DR. SAVOY: Dr. Bailey, you understand it's nothing personal BAILEY: People talking about your hormone levels, starts to feel personal. MR. NILES: Dr. Bailey. Looks like you're the baby whisperer. Gus drank the whole bottle. Do you want to hold him? (But with Dr. Savoy standing behind her...) BAILEY: Actually now isn't a good time. I'm about to go get your wife's labs. MR. NILES: Do you think you could talk to her? She's freaking out. She's not too sure about the mastectomy, she's thinking maybe a lumpectomy. I know she likes you. Maybe you could talk her into... BAILEY: No it's not my job to talk her into anything. Maybe if she knew more about her reconstructive options. I'll send our plastic surgeon up. ---------- BURKE: Hey chief. Got a minute? CHIEF: Sure. Quite morning isn't it? BURKE: It was. It's always important to be reminded how important it is to be on top of your game. That's what I wanted to talk to you about... CHIEF: I am so glad you are back in this building. Look, I need your help focusing the staff. They respond to you as an authority figure. You're an example of what they should be. Glad to have you back Preston. BURKE: Thank you Chief. ---------- DEREK: You're back. MEREDITH: I am. DEREK: You look...good without an appendix. It suits you. MEREDITH: How are you? DEREK: Fine. How are you? MEREDITH: I'm great. DEREK: Feeling well? No pain? MEREDITH: No pain. (Her pager beeps.) That's your wife. I'm on her service. DEREK: Ok then. I won't stand in your way. MEREDITH: Okay. ---------- MEREDITH: Hi I was paged by Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. ADDISON: Dr. Grey. Welcome back. MEREDITH: Thank you. ADDISON: And, uh...it's just Montgomery now. MEREDITH: What? ADDISON: My name. The divorce was finalized this morning. So...Montgomery. To add to our fun, we've been asked to consult on a woman who has a foreign object stuck inside of her. Ahem. SONJA: Ow. It hurts whenever you move. ADAM: Well then keep your weight off my bad knee. (Sonja is straddling Adam, who also happens to be naked.) SONJA: Sorry, I thought it was on the left side. ADAM: You think after 19 years of marriage you'd have that one down. ADDISON: It appears that her husband is the foreign object. BOTH: Ex-husband. ---------- SONJA: So you go and get a piercing. ADAM: Sonja. SONJA: What. It's not like they're not going to find out. ADAM: It's so embarrassing... SONJA: No. What's embarrassing is meeting your husband for lunch with your ex-husband still attatched. How long is this going to take, 'cause I really don't want my husband finding out. Could you work out some small miracle? ADDISON: First of all, we have to figure out what the piercing is caught on. SONJA: Ok. ADDISON: Do you have any piercings? SONJA: Me? NO. I sell real estate. ADAM: What's that supposed to mean? I sell real estate too. SONJA: We've been divorced for five years. We keep running in to each other. You know, work stuff. We get together sometimes. It's stupid and weak. And it is never happening again. ADDISON: Well Dr. Grey is going to check on the x-rays and we'll take it from there. Ok? And... you might want to cancel your lunch plans. ---------- CHRISTINA: Hey. That M&M was... BURKE: Yeah. I went to tell the chief... about my hand CHRISTINA: Burke. BURKE: But I couldn't. I don't know what I'm going to do. CHRISTINA: Well I can be there if you need me, in surgery. BURKE: I'm not doing any surgery. I'm going to catch up on paper work. CHRISTINA: Does that mean... BURKE: I don't know. I don't know what I'm going to do. I need time to think. CHRISTINA: Okay BURKE: I have paperwork. I need to do paperwork. ---------- IZZIE: I know how the rumor mill works around her George. I'm the crazy intern, and now I'm the crazy intern whose friends have to babysit her. GEORGE: You know what we should talk about. We should talk about what you're going to do with that money after you don't destroy it. (They approach Adam and Sonja's room and see through the open door. George sways away, adverting his eyes as Izzie watches.) IZZIE: Are those people having sex? ADDISON: They were having sex, now they're just fighting. Good to have you back Stephens. IZZIE: I'm not back. I'm fine. Just not back. Hey you're Addison Forbers Montgomery Shepherd. Thats's a lot of names. A lot of rich sounding names. You're rich right? That's rude. That's a rude question. It's just that I'm rich now too, GEORGE: You're not rich till you deposit the check. IZZIE: Do you ever feel guilty being rich? ADDISON: I'm sorry? IZZIE: Being rich? Cause I have money now, and I don't really feel like I did anything to deserve it. And I can't talk to my friends about it cause they're all so poor. GEORGE: Standing right here Izzie. ADDISON: Deposit the check Stephes. Just start there. And the guilt will work itself out ---------- (Meredith is looking through an upheld x-ray and Derek appears behind it.) MEREDITH: Hey, you're everywhere. DEREK: I'm sorry. For once it was actually not on purpose. MEREDITH: Do these look blurry to you? DEREK: What exactly am I looking at? MEREDITH: A divorced couple who got stuck together during... DEREK: Oh Wow. That's got to be awkward. MEREDITH: Yeah, divorced five years and still going at it...like teens at the prom. So to speak. Speaking of divorce. I heard...because I'm working with your wife. DEREK: Hmm MEREDITH: Ex-wife. DEREK: It was time. MEREDITH: Good. DEREK: How's Finn? MEREDITH: Finn is...fine. DEREK: Good. You're right, they're blurry. You should get some new ones. ---------- MARK: If you go ahead with the mastectomy, there are several reconstructive options. Saline implants are used most often. But silicone has a more natural look and feel. MRS. NILES: I can't deal with this right now. MR. NILES: Diana... come on. It'll take two seconds, huh? MRS. NILES: You're the one who has to feel them so you decide. MR. NILES: I don't care. ALEX: Dude, trust me, you care. BAILEY: Dr. Karev. MARK: Dude, he's right. You care. MR. NILES: Dr. Bailey? What's wrong with my wife? BAILEY: I'm sorry. You know she has stage 2B breast cancer... MR. NILES: I know that, but will you please tell me what's wrong with her? BAILEY: Mr. Miles... MR. NILES: Cause she wont talk to me, I try and I try but she won't. She won't even look at Gus. She won't hold him and all he wants is his mom. He's just... she's such a good mom. I know it doesn't seem like that. But she is. BAILEY: I can schedule a psych consult... MR. NILES: I don't want a psych consult. I just want my wife back. Please. Now she's talking crazy. How she might not have the surgery at all. BAILEY: Mr. Niles... MR. NILES: Can you please tell her that she has to have the surgery? Somebody has to tell her. ---------- ADAM: I did this for you you know. SONJA: You have got to stop doing things for me you know. I'm with Tom now. I love Tom. ADAM: I still can't believe you left me for that guy. What does Tom have that I don't? SONJA: Well for one, he doesn't have a pierced.. MEREDITH: You two need to stay completely still (They're having another x-ray.) so that we can get a clear picture. SONJA: We fought through 19 years of marriage. The only time we didn't fight was when we were having sex. ADAM: I still love you. (A girl walks in.) GIRL: Mom? Dad? SONJA: Scratch that. Now I'm in hell. ---------- MEREDITH: Jennifer, maybe you want to go wait in the... JENNIFER: You guys are so paying for my therapy. And my rent. And my new car. ADAM: Of course sweetie. SONJA: Oh, coddle her. You are old enough to know that your parents are sexual beings and that they make mistakes. JENNIFER: Oh. Is that what you call this mom? A Mistake? Because I call this, you once again being a slut. SONJA: Hey! You don't talk like that. I am your mother! JENNIFER: Yeah and what a great role model you turned out to be. Look at you. Cheating on your husband with your ex-husband. And daddy, what about you? I thought you finally moved on. You said you were going to start dating. ADAM: It's complicated, honey. ADDISON: Well, it seems your IUD has dislodged from your uterus, hooked on to your husband's piercing, and is embedded in your vaginal wall. JENNIFER: Did she say piercing? MEREDITH: Daughter. ADDISON: Perfect. ---------- MARK: Hey ADDISON: Hey MARK: So who got the brownstone? ADDISON: You heard? MARK: People talk around here. I listen Who got the brownstone? ADDISON: None of your business. MARK: I left my bike in the basement. I just want to know who to talk to to get it back ADDISON: Buy a new bike. MARK: You know this angry divorce thing really turns me on. ADDISON: I got the brownstone. And you'll get your bike back when you come to your senses and go home. MARK: Derek took the Hamptons? Derek hates the Hamptons. Derek gave you the Hamptons too? He still doesn't know the whole story does he? ADDISON: No. MARK: And as long as you don't tell him, you get to be the good guy while I'm just the chump who seduced his wife for the hell of it. Real fair. ---------- IZZIE: I think I'm going to buy something for Bailey, and for Burke. What do you think Burke would want? CHRISTINA: Nothing you could buy with money. GEORGE: He likes Jazz. IZZIE: I'm not buying him a CD George. I'm a multi-millionaire. It needs to be something... big. MEREDITH: A house in the Bahamas. ALEX: I'd buy the Bahamas. Or a Bahama. I'd buy an island. CHRISTINA: Oh you're an intern. When would you have time to go to your Bahama? ALEX: I'd quit. CHRISTINA: No you wouldn't. You're a surgeon. You operate. That's what you do. Sorry IZZIE: Why? I'm fine. I'm fine. I am not a surgeon. ALEX: My patient, a 30 yr. old with breast cancer. I say live your life while youcan in the Bahamas. IZZIE: Have you told Derek yet that you broke up with Finn? MEREDITH: I'm giving him time. IZZIE: That's stupid. GEORGE: You know what's stupid. It's carrying around a check for 8 million dollars. IZZIE: I'm fine. The check is fine. We're all fine, okay? ---------- CALLIE: I slept with another guy. Do I tell George? MEREDITH: I broke up with Finn. Do I tell Derek? I can't tell Derek. CALLIE: I have to tell George. ---------- MR. NILES: Here, honey. Please just hold him. MRS. NILES: Stop it. MR. NILES: Will you please just talk to me? MRS. NILES: I want you to leave me alone ---------- CHIEF: You took a lot of hits today at the M&M. Some of them justified, some of them not. Compassion and empathy are a big part of the job. I don't care what Savoy said, and I know I haven't always been supportive, but being a parent makes you a better doctor. ---------- Burke sits in his office...trying to write. His hand is having a massive tremor. IZZIE: Hi. I just wanted to say hi. Denny left me 8 million dollars. 8.7 million to be exact. Did you know that he had money? Cause I didn't know. BURKE: No, I didn't know. IZZIE: I'm thinking about using it to travel. Maybe go to Italy. I've never been there before. I hear Venice is amazing. BURKE: Izzie... IZZIE: I'm fine. Really I am, I'm fine. Everyone thinks I'm not but...I'm fine.j BURKE: You're fine. I'm fine. Everything's fine. IZZIE: So. BURKE: I got sht. I got sht because I was coming back to the hospital to check on Denny. Because you asked me to. I'm not fine. Denny asked you to marry him and now he's dad. You're not fine. Don't come in here and... just... we're not fine. IZZIE: I'm sorry. We were friends. You were my boss but I think we were friends too. I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt. And I know there is nothing I can do to take it back. BURKE: No. IZZIE: Preston, please. BURKE: You quit. You quit being a surgeon. You have two good hands and you aren't using them. Feel guilty about that. ---------- ADAM: Sonja, quit grabbing my leg. SONJA: I am not grabbing you anywhere, she is. CHRISTINA: Mr Morris, we need to position you correctly to get a clear image. ADDISON: Dr. Yang, move him a little to the left. Hey, what are you doing here? CHIEF: I heard about it. I had to see it. And now I've seen enough. ADDISON: Dr. Yang I need you to lift him a little as you pull him. CHRISTINA: I'm trying. (The couple cry out in pain.) CHIEF: Lift his right leg 20 degrees. Freeze! Hold that position! ADDISON: Dr Grey, can you kind of slowly swirl Mrs. Kellman in a counter clockwise direction. MEREDITH: Swirl? SONJA: Swirl? CHRISTINA: Swirl. (Chief and Addison make hand gestures from behind the glass, indicating swirl around. Meredith does as she's asked.) ADAM: Oh God Sonja. SONJA: Oh Adam not now! CHIEF: Careful! Careful! ADDISON: Dr. Yang and Dr. Grey, on the count of 3 I want you to slowly gently pull them apart. (They do so, but Adam starts convulsing.) CHRISTINA: Oh... MEREDITH: He's having a... Heart attck! He's having a heart attck! CHRISTINA: Oh thank God. I mean... code blue! ---------- CHIEF: We need to get him to an OR now or he's goin to die. Who's the cardiac surgeon on call? NURSE: Dr. Harrison but he's in surgery. CHIEF: Where's Burke? CHRISTINA: He's in the conference room. But he's not on the board yet. BURKE: He is now. Notify the OR Let's move people. Move! CHRISTINA: How do we do this? BURKE: Stand on my right side... CHRISTINA: You're right side... BURKE: And if any time in the procedure... CHRISTINA: If you tremor... BURKE: I'll look at you and you'll know to slide in and do the sutures we practiced. CHRISTINA: What if one of the scrub nurses notices? What if they say something. BURKE: Christina I can't walk away from this surgery. If I do this man will die. So tremor or no tremor, I have to try. But you.. CHRISTINA: I'm your intern. I will be there on your right side. ---------- BURKE: 10 Blade.. (He begins to operate, seamlessly.) ---------- ADDISON: As soon as we hear something about your ex-husband we'll let you know. Since I removed your IUD you may want to use a backup method. SONJA: Oh I'm sure I won't be having sex any time soon...once I tell Tom. ADDISON: You're... you're going to tell your husband? SONJA: You know the first time it happened, I felt so guilty. But I wasn't going to tell Tom because it wasn't going to happen again. And then it happened again... and again... and somewhere along the way I stopped feeling guilty. Yeah, I'm going to tell my husband. I think the truth just has to come out, you know? ---------- (Burke is doing stitches. He clears his throat. Then looks at Christina..) CHRISTINA: Dr. Burke I know it's a lot to ask, but I would really appreciate it a lot if you would let me try my running whip stitch. (She slides in and takes over the operation.) BURKE: All right, take a good bite. You want to make sure it holds. Don't put too much pressure. There, keep going. GEORGE: Oh my god IZZIE: Christina's doing a running whip stitch...on a heart. ALEX: I guess sleeping with your boss has it's perks. GEORGE: This sucks. Christina gets sex and perks. MEREDITH: Maybe you should just apologize again GEORGE: GEORGE: Yeah, cause you're in a great position to give relationship advice. IZZIE: Christina's doing a running whip stitch...on a heart. ---------- MRS. NILES: I don't feel like talking. BAILEY: When I'm driving home at night, after a long day at work all I can think about is getting to my baby. MRS. NILES: If this is where you tell me to fight the cancer so I don't miss out on the joy of motherhood... BAILEY: Then I get home, and the baby's crying... and the exhaustion hits. And I resent that tiny baby's presence in my house. My previously very quiet house. MRS. NILES: Why are you telling me this? BAILEY: So you know what I do? First I pick a fight with my husband. You know, blame him for not settling the baby down. Then I bitch about the neighbor's loud music. Then if I'm really tired, and pissed off... I blame the baby. If you hadn't been breast feeding, you never would have thought the lump was a clogged milk duct. You would have gone to the doctor as soon as you felt it. Cancer wouldn't have got this far. And you wouldn't be here making this decision. Am I close? MRS. NILES: What kind of mother blames her own baby for her cancer? BAILEY: A mother who is human. A mother who is overwhelmed. MRS. NILES: If this is going to kll me eventually, wouldn't it be better if it happened when Gus was little? Wouldn't it be easier for him if I never existed? BAILEY: Shh. This is when I tell you to fight the cancer so you don't miss out on the joys of motherhood. ---------- ADDISON: Derek... DEREK: You know what I like? I like that we can be civilized. We're these adult grown up people who can be civilized and friendly. We deserve a metal. ADDISON: It wasn't a one night stand DEREK: What? ADDISON: Mark wasn't a one night stand. I was in love with him. Or at least I thought I was. After you left, we lived together for two months. I wanted to believe that we could make it work. I wanted to believe I hadn't thrown my marriage away, that I hadn't thrown my life away on a fling. But he's mark and well... I caught him with someone else. And then Richard called. We both had relationships with other people. We're both equally reliable. So please take the Brownstone. DEREK: All I want is Seattle. I want Seattle and never to see you again. ---------- MEREDITH: You're here. You're everywhere. And I can't not tell you. You know, I've been not telling ou all day because I thought it was kind and I thought I was giving you space. But I can't not tell you because you're here and you're you and... I broke up with Finn. DEREK: Ok. MEREDITH: Ok... then. Ok. I told you. DEREK: Yeah. ---------- BURKE: The operation was successful. The next 24-48 hours are critical but... CHRISTINA: We expect your father to make a full recovery. JENNIFER: Thank you so much Dr. Burke. MEREDITH: (voice over): First, do no harm. Easier said than done. We can take all the oaths in the world but the fact is... most of us do harm all the time. ---------- IZZIE: I have 8 million dollars. CHIEF: So I've heard. IZZIE: I can do anything I want. CHIEF: Just about. IZZIE: And all I really want to do is a running whip stitch. CHIEF: My first year as an intern, I had a sab cardiac patient who blew out his lung while I was transporting him to CT. I called in a code, but by the time everyone got there, he was dad. If I'd have put in a chest tube right away... I made a mistake. But I stayed. I worked. I learned. I never made that mistake again. If I'd have quit, all I would have had is that life that I lost. Instead I get to save lives. Every day, I get to save lives. MEREDITH: (VO) Sometimes even when we're trying to help, we do more harm than good. ---------- MARK: She told you. I've know you my whole life, I grew up with you so I know what you're thinking. That's a year of your life wasted trying to make it work with Addison, when you could've been with Meredith. That you could've been happy right now. That this... everything... that you and Meredith could've had a real chance. Still... I thought you should know the truth. I thought I owed you that. As a friend. DEREK: You're not my friend. MEREDITH (VO) And then the guilt rears its ugly head. What you do with that guilt is entirely up to you. DR. SAVOY: Babysitting Dr. Bailey? BAILEY: That's right, I'm babysitting. I'm being all unprofessional and emotionally involved while my patient and her husband are having a moment together. You might want you leave right now. I feel a rush of hormones coming on. There's no telling what I might do. ALEX: How's it going in there? BAILEY: I think they're leaning toward a mastectomy. ALEX: About Izzie... I didn't do anything. BAILEY: I know Karev, you didn't do anything, you weren't even here. ALEX: No listen. I knew... Izzie told me what she was going to do but I didn't say anything cause I didn't want to get involved. I didn't do anything. I didn't do anything to stop her. You weren't the only one. BAILEY: Alex. Thank you. ---------- MEREDITH: We're left with a choice... GEORGE: I got fried chicken, extra crispy. Coleslaw. Peach cobbler. Beetle Jump and Samauri Ambush. CALLIE: The other night when I told you I was done trying to compete. That was me trying to break up with you. GEORGE: No... I think I would've noticed that. CALLIE: Except you didn't. Which is why I broke up with you. ---------- MARK: (lying in bed with Addison) At least now you don't have to feel guilty any more. ADDISON: Shut up. MEREDITH: Either you can let guilt thrown you back into the behavior that got you in trouble in the first place, or learn from the guilt, and do your best to move on. MEREDITH: Are you seriously not going to deposit that check? IZZIE: Some good needs to come from this money. Until I know what that good is... no. I'm not depositing the check. (Instead she clips it to the fridge. Meredith goes to grab it, but George slaps her hand down.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x05 - Oh, the Guilt"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x06: Let The Angels Commit Original Airdate: 11/2/2006 Written by: Stacy McKee Directed by: Jessica Yu MEREDITH: To make it... really make it as a surgeon, it takes major commitment. We have to be willing to pick up that scalpel that may or may not do more damage than good. It's all about being committed. Cause if we're not, we have no business picking up that scalpel in the first place. ---------- CHRISTINA: We'll book OR 2 tomorrow at 10. Usual scrub team. And get rid of his valve replacement at 2, that's no good. INTERN: Yang. Brought you a mocha latte. CHRISTINA: You're not scrubbing in. INTERN: But Burke always lets me scrub it. OTHER INTERN: Hey, Yang can I get in on... CHRISTINA: No, no residents. Too crowded. Go away. (To a nurse) Make sure you put the instrument tray on his left hand side. He needs the elbow room. And OR 2, no gallery. Burke was specific. NURSE: Dr. Burke has become very specific since coming back to work, hasn't he? CHRISTINA: Do you want me to tell him you said that? GEORGE (who is looking on from above with Meredith and Alex): Burke's back and suddenly Christina's running his board. Who does she think she is, Bailey? MEREDITH: She's helping him. ALEX: She's taking advantage. She gets out of rounds, she scrubs in on every surgery Burke does, she's ordered around 3'rd year residents... MEREDITH: You're overreacting... (Christina grabs the pen from the nurse's hand and starts writing on the board.) GEORGE: She's writing on the board! ALEX: Maybe I should sleep with Burke... ---------- MEREDITH: You've been busy CHRISTINA: Yeah MEREDITH: Derek hast called yet. I told him I broke up with Finn a week ago, he still hasn't called. Hey, do you wanna go get a drink, catch up? CHRISTINA: No, I can't. I have to study up for Burke's surgeries tomorrow. MEREDITH: She's busy. ---------- GEORGE: Callie. Hey, talk to me. And how about talking to me instead of ignoring me? CALLIE: George! GEORGE: Well that's talking That's a good start. ---------- (Derek walks out of the shower, and screams upon seeing a woman on his bed.) NANCY: Well hey there stranger. DEREK: Nancy you don't call first? (Meredith enters.) MEREDITH: Hey, I... DEREK: Meredith... Meredith, let me explain! (But of course she takes off.) NANCY: I take it that was the slutty intern you cheated on Addison with? DEREK: She's not slutty. What are you doing here? NANCY: You bailed on Thanksgiving, then Christmas, you're living in a trailor, and you're getting a divorce,and then there's the slutty intern. DEREK: I really don't like you. NANCY: You love me. ---------- IZZIE: I'm feeling really good. GEORGE: Good. MEREDITH: Good. IZZIE: First day back, it feels good. Big. Kind of nervous. I feel good. Do I look alright? MEREDITH and GEORGE: Great. IZZIE: I want to get on the right foot, get my ID renewed, new time card, sign some papers with legal then I'm back...really back. MEREDITH and GEORGE: Yeah. (Izzie leaves the elevator.) IZZIE: This is me. Human resources.. See you guys on the floor. BOTH: Yeah. GEORGE: I'll be Christina for you if you'll be Izzie for me. MEREDITH: Deal. (George stops the elevator.) MEREDITH: Derek had a woman in his trailer last night. She was ugly, very ugly. Except she was tall and beautiful...and he was naked. GEORGE: Oh uh, McDreamy was doing the McNasty with a McHottie? That McBastard. How was that? MEREDITH: That was good! Channelling Izzie... go. GEORGE: OK... Callie... she won't forgive me, she won't talk to me. She dumped me...which I dont...care about...at all MEREDITH: Good because you deserve better, 'cause you are George. I mean seriously. Seriously. Was that Izzie optimistic? GEORGE: That was very Izzie... MEREDITH: What has happened to us? GEORGE: We are now the people the people we want to be with avoid. MEREDITH: We have careers to think about. We don't need attention from men with perfect hair. GEORGE: We should make a pact. No more dating. MEREDITH: No more Derek. No more Callie. GEORGE: Just 100% focused on our work. MEREDITH: They are dad to us. GEORGE: They are freaking corpses to us. (They butt knuckles.) ---------- MRS. BYRD: Preston Burke, what a pleasure. I have read so much about you. BURKE: Well thank you. CHRISTINA: Pruitt Byrd. Medivac brought him in this morning. He presents with a primary cardiac tumor. MRS. BYRD: We've been told Pruitt needs a cardio autotransplantation. BURKE: A cardio autotransplantation? CHRISTINA: A humpty dumpty surgery. BURKE: Yes I know what it is. Mrs. Byrd, this is a very complicated surgery. You'll need thorough testing. CHRISTINA: Already done. BURKE: You understand what the surgery intails? We have to.. CHRISTINA: We have to remove his heart, cut it open, scrape out all the tumor, then put his heart back together again. BURKE: Which is risky. CHRISTINA: But possible. MRS. BYRD: Which is why we're here I want the very best for my husband. BURKE: The best. CHRISTINA: She means you. BURKE: I know that. CHRISTINA: Oh I scheduled Mr. Byrd for surgery this afternoon. Just trying to be as efficient as possible. ---------- CHIEF: Legal cleared Stephens. Explain her perameters and make she understands. BAILEY: Stephens is being assigned to me again? CHIEF: She's your intern. BAILEY: Well wouldn't it be better for her to start fresh with another resident? CHIEF: You don't want her. BAILEY: I want her to succeed. CHIEF: There's still a good deal of fallout after the Duquet M&M. There's talk. I don't need to tell you that there are doctors in this hospital who have concerns about your judgement. BAILEY: Concerns about my judgment. CHIEF: Stephens was your mistake. BAILEY: Do you, sir, do you have concerns about my judgement? CHIEF: Do you? You're not going to put those concerns to rest by avoiding taking responsibility for Stephens. She's your intern... again. ---------- GEORGE: Transfer from Mercy West. Noelle LeBatt. 32 weeks along, pregnant with twins. One appears to be developing more slowly than the other. GREG: Hi. ADDISON: Hi there. GREG: Greg Stanton. This is my lovely fiancé. The future Mrs. Stanton. Noelle. NOELLE: Greg, I promise you you're the only person who cares if we're married or not. GREG: They said we had to come here because her condition could be serious. Is it serious? ADDISON: I gotta say, you don't seem emergent enough for Mercy to send you over here in a ambulance. You're not in labor, you're not bleeding, your vitals are fine. NOELLE: They said I had to come here because of my thing. GEORGE: Two uteruses!? Ms. Lebatt was born with two uteruses. Uh, Uteri ADDISON: Uteruses. GEORGE: Uteruses. That's very rare. IZZIE: I'm here. Hi. Hello. That paperwork took forever, but I'm here now. And can I just say how greatful I am to be back? BAILEY: You understand there are rules to your probation. Rules to follow? IZZIE: Oh yeah, legal took me through all that stuff. The mandatory counseling, the extra lab hours. The extra work with the transplant patients. BAILEY: That's the stuff you're doing with the chief. I'm talking about what you're doing for me. IZZIE: Okay. What am I doing for you? BAILEY: OK, lets start with what you don't get to do. You will not interact with any patients, you will not be alone with any patients. You will be seen and not heard. No procedures. The OR is off limits. No pre-op. No post-op. Anything having to do with an op. You have no authority. You have no opinions. You have no choice in this matter. Am I understood? IZZIE: Is there anything I can do? I want to be useful. BAILEY: I cant use you. You've got to earn back the right for any of us to trust you again. Until then, you will be shadowing a differend Dr. every day. IZZIE: Okay, who am I with today? Dr. Montgomery? You? MEREDITH: Dr. Bailey, you paged? BAILEY: Dr. Grey. IZZIE: Meredith... BAILEY: You are to make sure that Stephens observes only. MEREDITH: You want me to? IZZIE: Wait Meredith? Meredith is the boss of me. ---------- MEREDITH: I'm sorry about this. IZZIE: Hey you want me to get you some coffee? Rub your feet maybe? MEREDITH: I did not ask for this assignment. IZZIE: It's fine...I'm fine with it. Oh, I'm so sorry (She's bumped into people who are talking to Derek.) DEREK: Dr. Stephens. Welcome back. Meredith? Meredith... IZZIE: Sorry it's not like I can leave. I gotta stay by my bosses side. NANCY: Okay, the trailer sucks, but in the light of day the land is nice. Seattle's pretty in the daylight. Plus you have your thing for ferries. MEREDITH and DEREK: Ferry boats. NANCY: Right, whatever. DEREK: Meredith, this is my sister Nancy. MEREDITH: Sister? You're one of Derek's sisters? NANCY: Well I knew you didn't think I was the wife, seeing as how you already ran her off. DEREK: Nancy is visiting from Connecticut. She's on her way home... now. Straight back home. MEREDITH: Well it was nice to meet you. NANCY: Okay... (Meredith and Izzie walk off as Derek grabs Nancy's arm scornfully.) IZZIE: McDreamy's sister is McBitchy... ---------- CHRISTINA: You put me in charge of your schedule. BURKE: To make sure that I didn't get a surgery like this one. CHRISTINA: Only a handful of people do humpties Burke. And you're the best one on the west coast. BURKE: Then he can go to Houston. CHRISTINA: You want to tell the Chief that? Pruitt needs the surgery, he'll die without it. BURKE: You didn't tell me. You told the patient we were doing the surgery. but you didn't tell me. CHRISTINA: I have been doing that all week. BURKE: Are you up on a humpty? Do you realize what this entails? CHRISTINA: I have done my research. Stop worrying. We are a well-oiled machine. ---------- BAILEY: Uh Dr. Burke. BURKE: Yeah. BAILEY: I understand there are some doctors in this hospital that have doubts about my judgement since Denny BURKE: Everyone loves a scandal. BAILEY: So you think it's just gossip? It's not actual concern about me being a doctor? BURKE: Sure, sure. ---------- (Meredith pulls gauze off a young girl's burnt hand.) MEREDITH: Ow. Iz, set me up for debriedment, and dressing. GRETCHEN: It's stupid. I know better. When I'm setting up for the bar... I'm a mess. I can't focus on anything for weeks, but tourts and real property and constitutional law. MEREDITH: Uh the Biosynthetic ones. IZZIE: We never use those. MEREDITH: We do now. Sloan changed the burn protocol last week. GRETCHEN: I was about to start a practice test. I wanted something to drink. So I put on some tea. So I put on a pot of water and forgot. Half an hour into my section on contracts and the smoke alarm was blaring...and well you know the rest. MEREDITH: So you're going to be a lawyer? GRETCHEN: All I have to do is pass the bar exam. I failed last time...but this time I'm ready. I'm going to pass. IZZIE: Good for you. ---------- DEREK: That was just mean. NANCY: Kathleen called and asked me to find out why the slutty interns panties were hanging on the bulletin board. DEREK: Four sisters... four sisters and not one brother. And you wonder why I don't call more. NANCY: You can answer about the panties at any time. DEREK: Nance, it's good to see you. Really great to have you here. But I have a job you know? I have patients. NANCY: I have a mother with twins at 35 weeks...where is her OB? DEREK: Well her OB should be on a plane back to Connecticut where she belongs. NANCY: Okay, so we've covered the trailer, we still have to cover the slutty intern and the divorce. DEREK: You know what? You sound more and more like mom every day. NANCY: Take it back. ---------- GEORGE: So two uteruses. That's pretty cool. And you're engaged...also cool. NOELLE: Greg talked me into it GREG: From the first moment I saw noel I knew I was ham. GEORGE: Did you say ham? NOELLE: Oh here we go again. GREG: You're either ham or eggs. You gotta ask yourself in every situation, are you the pig of chicken? GEORGE: Sir it's just a pig or chicken. GREG: Look you got to play the ham and the eggs. You see the chicken is involved in the meal. But the pig is committed. So the question is...are you committed? Or are you involved? GEORGE: Ham or eggs? GREG: Ham or eggs. ---------- MARK: Karev you free? ALEX: Absolutely sir. MARK: Great. Take this. I'm on hold with the DMV. Some mess up about switching my license and registration to Seattle. Take care of this for me? ALEX: Thanks for thinking of me sir. O'Malley...how's it feel to be the new gynie grunt? GEORGE: I've got a patient who was born with and is pregnant in two uteruses. Two uteruses...jealous? ALEX: No, I'm on hold. Important business. For Sloan. GEORGE: Right... Super important, I'm sure. Noelle LeBatt...room 2413. ALEX: Hang on, can I see that? (referring to the chart) (Nancy walks up.) NANCY: Did I just hear him say two uteruses? ALEX: You must be... MARK: Nancy pants? NANCY: Hey loser. MARK: I wish Derek had told me you were visiting. NANCY: Oh like he tells you anything these days? MARK: Well I'm working on that. NANCY: What are you doing here Mark? Are you trying to trture him? MARK: He's my family Nancy. Plus I needed a change of pace. Plus I slept with my tennis partners wief and he went out and bought a gn. NANCY: There it is! ADDISON: Oh! Nancy! Let me guess, did mom send you out? NANCY: Let me guess, he's trying to ban you from Seattle? ADDISON: Did he also tell you he's living in a trailer? (Derek walks up and sees them talking, and walks away.) NANCY: Derek. Derek? (She goes after him.) I want to see the two uteruses. ADDISON: Yeah, find me later. MARK: I miss her. ADDISON: Yeah me too. ---------- GREG: The Diesel pushes past quarterback Don McNeil. He's at the 30. He's at the 20. He's at the 10. Touchdown Washington! NOELLE: Sorry, one of the twins gets rowdy, and Greg gets carried away with talking to the baby. He's decided that the baby is into sports of all things. GREG: Well she's daddy's little girl. See when I talk to her... ALEX: Yeah, your voice, it helps calm her down. Yeah, I read a couple aricles on that recently. ADDISON: Dr. Karev...I didn't know you secretly missed my service. ALEX: Right. ADDISON: Greg, Noelle, I have good news for you. According to our tests, the babies are both perfectly healthy. But they are substantially different sizes for a very unique reason. The babies have two different due dates. GEORGE: According to our calculations, the larger baby, your son was conceived a whole six weeks before your daughter. NOELLE: Oh God. GREG: I don't understand. That's impossible. ADDISON: Actually out tests are extremely accurate at predicting due dates. GREG: But we broke up. Yeah, see she got pregnant. I wanted to get married, she didn't. I gave her an ultimatum, and she left me. NOELLE: Greg I am so sorry. GREG: We were barely speaking, six weeks after the conception, let alone having sex. Or at least I wasn't having sex. NOELLE: It was one night, Greg, it was one night. I didn't think this could happen. It was nothing. GREG: I can't believe you did this. I can't believe you didn't tell me. I can't believe this. (He storms out.) GEORGE: He's not the father of both babies. ---------- ADDISON: I just accidentally broke the news of my patient's infidelity to her husband. BAILEY: And yet no one is questioning your competence as a surgeon. ADDISON: No, what? CHIEF: I need a button. I'm on my last clean shirt and I'm missing a button. Adele always handled my buttons CHIEF: Adele...no. I wouldn't want to bother her with anything as trivial as a button. I don't suppose either of you would want to... ADDISON: I'm sorry, I have two uteruses I need to deal with. BAILEY: I have many skills. Surgical skills. Your button ruptures an oesophagus, I'm your woman... otherwise... MARK: I hear you brned your hand because you were studying? GRETCHEN: Can't be allowed to warm soup within five days of taking the bar. MARK: So you brned your hand... GRETCHEN: While I was burning the soup. MARK: You grabbed the pot GRETCHEN: Dropped it, obviously it was red hot... MARK: Must have held onto it for a while though. This burn's extremely deep. GRETCHEN: Oh yeah, that's right. I held onto it then I dropped it. MARK: There are some deep partial thickness burns here. Give her a gram of Cephazol and a tetanus. GRETCHEN: It's too bad really. I did this to my hand. I'm supposed to be taking the bar again on Friday. MARK: This burn is bad, but we'll get you fixed up. You'll be fine to take the test on Friday. GRETCHEN: I will? IZZIE: She's lying. Something's off about Gretchen's story. MEREDITH: Izzie, you're only supposed to be observing. IZZIE: I am observing. I'm observing closely. Did you see her reaction when Sloan told her she'd be okay to take the test again. That was not relief. That was panic. MEREDITH: It's okay to be nervous...about being back here at work, about failing. But you haven't been here a whole day yet and already you're pushing to bend the rules. IZZIE: MEREDITH: This is so not about me. This is about our patient. I'm worried about our patient. And get off your high freaking horse. MEREDITH: This is my patient. Try to remember that. IZZIE: Fine, whatever. BAILEY: A humpty dumpty surgery. Burke's doing a humpty today? I've never seen one of those first hand before. CHRISTINA: Yeah, me neither. What are you doing? BAILEY: Scrubbing in. You'll let Burke know? CHRISTINA: Sure. (She doesn't want Bailey in there because sit would give the game away.) ---------- GEORGE: I know you're not talking to me any more, but there's something I'd like to explain. All you have to do is listen. You and me, we're like ham and eggs. I was the chicken and I just want you to know that I know I was the chicken. You put yourself out there and you were committed. I just put the eggs on the plate. Not the ham 'cause you were the pig. I was involved but now I'm committed. CALLIE: Did you just call me a pig? GEORGE: It's a metaphor. CALLIE: Calling me a pig. GEORGE: The point is you're not the pig any more. I am the pig. Now...I am the pig. (She walks away.) (Izzie walks past a room where the gng is sitting eating their lunch.) IZZIE: I've been waiting for you guys for half an hour in the cafeteria. Since when do we eat in a patient room? GEORGE: Izzie, meet really old guy. We found him a couple of days ago. He sleeps all the time. CHRISTINA: It's quiet. No one bothers us. What are you doing. IZZIE: I'm not doing anything. Turns out I'm literally not allowed to do anything. I knew coming back would be an adjustment. But this... CHRISTINA: No, what are you doing now? IZZIE: Eating my lunch. CHRISTINA: Okay, if you want to socialize, or talk about your day or get in a quick therapy session, go do it over there. IZZIE: Seriously? CHRISTINA: Goodbye Izzie. IZZIE: Okay... ALEX: So O'Malley, your two uteruses... GEORGE: You're on scut. Glorified plastics scut. You're in no position to mock me or my uteruses. ALEX: Any cervical changes on the ultrasound? GEORGE: Why do you care? ALEX: I don't. IZZIE: I am so glad to be back. Yay! I'm not complaining about you...you and I are fine, boss. (The old man groans in his bed and moves slightly and everyone looks around at one another.) GEORGE: I called Callie a pig. ALEX: To her face? MEREDITH: What happened to the whole corpse thing? IZZIE: I can't get over how much everything around here has changed. MEREDITH: How many times? GEORGE: Just one time. MEREDITH: I get one too then, Gin (They're playing cards. Meredith gets up and leaves.) IZZIE: What was that... with Meredith? GEORGE: We have a thing. IZZIE: You have a thing with Meredith and I don't now about it? I live with you, I see you every day. GEORGE: It's work thing. CHRISTINA: You know the point of hanging out with really old guy is that he doesn't talk. The man is sedated. This is supposed to be a quiet place. (She storms out.) IZZIE: See...change. She's changed. Everything's change. ---------- MRS. BYRD: I gave the other nurse a list of his medications this morning. My husband needs his pills, he needed them hours ago! CHRISTINA: Okay, why don't you go check on his meds? NURSE: I have checked on them. CHRISTINA: Meds. Pharmacy. Now. Just... MRS. BYRD: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. CHRISTINA: It's fine. MRS. BYRD: I was never a yeller before. I've become this horrible person who yells at people who are just trying to do their job. CHRISTINA: You are just looking out for your husband. You do exactly what it takes to protect him. That does not make you horrible. That makes you smart. ---------- (Christina erases Bailey's name off the board when no one is looking.) ---------- GEORGE: She's hyperventilating. And the baby's had some brachicardia. ADDISON: Noelle I need you to get back into bed. NOELLE: Is Greg out there? Did he leave? Like really leave? GEORGE: Noelle, take deep breaths. NOELLE: I always give him such a hard time about everything. I mean, he likes weddings, I hate them He loves kids, they scare me to death. ADDISON: Have you had any cramping, any contractions, anything at all? NOELLE: I can't do this without him. We'll get past this right. I mean, we'll get past this. AH! ADDISON: All right, Noelle, I need you to get into bed. NOELLE: What's happening? ADDISON: Stay on your left side. I need slow deep breaths. ---------- NANCY (at dinner with Derek): So tell me about the slutty girl. Fine, the slutty intern. DEREK: It's the slutty part I had a problem with. NANCY: Kathleen said she's not even single. DEREK: She is single. She's wonderful, she's smart, she's alot of things, but she's none of your business Nancy. NANCY: Wow...I've never seen you like this over a girl. Not even Addison. DEREK: I've never been like this over a girl, especially Addison. NANCY: Oh don't be bitter. I mean shame on Addison and all that but he's Mark, Derek. What do you expect? He's Mark. And who hasn't gone there once or twice, right? DEREK: What'd you say? NANCY: Oh come on, everyone sleeps with Mark, it's practically a right of passage. Oh I get it. I get that they made a mistake. DEREK: It wasn't a mistake. It was months. They were together for months, did you know that? NANCY: No, I had no idea. DEREK: Then shut up about it and eat your lunch. ---------- MEREDITH: Derek's sister is in town. Christina, are you mad at me or something, 'cause I've been trying to talk to you... CHRISTINA: Not everything is about you, Meredith. MEREDITH: What's going on? 'Cause George and Alex are saying... CHRISTINA: I...don't care MEREDITH: What is your problem? CHRISTINA: I have bigger things in my life right now. (Bailey notices her name missing from the humpty dumpty.) BURKE: What? CHRISTINA: Nothing. BURKE: 10 blade. GREG: Dr. O'Malley? Can you tell me what's going on in there? GEORGE: You left... she thinks you left! GREG: Look man, this is all about to digest. My little girl... she isn't even my little girl any more. GEORGE: Noelle is in there freaking out because she thinks you left. GREG: Just tell me if she is okay... please. GEORGE: She's gone into premature labor. Dr. Montgomery... is about to do an emergency c-section to stop labor on the other. GREG: So you're delivering one of the babies right now? Today? GEORGE: In just a few minutes. GREG: The boy or the girl? GEORGE: Ham or eggs? ---------- MARK: You say you want a career in plastics, but you can't tear yourself away from the baby catchers long enough to show me you want it. ALEX: Being on hold with the DMV doesn't have anything to do with a career in plastics Dr. Sloan MARK: Only it does. Cause I have everything to do with your career in plastics, and I have everything to do with your career in plastics. NURSE: Tyler, Addison Montgomery needs two units of B-Positive blood in L&D STAT. (Alex hangs up with the DMV and goes to help) ---------- MEREDITH: So the biosynthetic dressings should ensure that you won't need skin grafts. And that's good. GRETCHEN: Would that take long? I mean, how long would something like that take? If I had needed them? MEREDITH: Oh that would depend on the severity of the burn. GRETCHEN: So you mean more severe than this one? It would have to be more severe. MEREDITH: Just to make sure that I have everything accurate, you brned your hand... GRETCHEN: We've been over this. MEREDITH: I'm sorry.. GRETCHEN: Look I have a test Friday and I have work to do. I want to get out of here. I'm ready to go home. IZZIE: Gretchen did you burn your hand on purpose? MEREDITH: Izzie you heard what Dr. Bailey said. IZZIE: It's okay if you did. It's just... did you... burn your hand to get out of taking your test? GRETCHEN: I can't fail that damn test one more time. I just can't. It's all anyone if my family...anyone in my life talks about. It's all I'm known for. Oh Gretchen the failure. Can you imagine failing the bar exam five times? Five times! I mean that's absurd. It's just...that's pathetic. I cannot sit for 2 1/2 solid days of testing...again...just to prove to everyone again...how pathetic I am. Now...when. IZZIE: You feel that pathetic all by yourself. ---------- ADDISON: Okay, I've completed the incision. I'm going to ask you to move the top uterus to the side so I can reach the one underneath. GEORGE: Okay. ADDISON: I don't want to alarm you or make you nervous in any way, 'cause you seem like a decent person, O'Malley, but I've got about 120 seconds to get baby 1 out of uterus 1 while you're holding uterus 2. And if you so much as hiccup you could rupture uterus 2 and kll this woman's child. Just try and be careful okay? GEORGE: Okay. NURSE: Wow. Look at that. ADDISON: Amazing huh? CHRISTINA: Applying the final hemastasis suture. BURKE: Don't be afraid to. CHRISTINA: Grab a bigger piece? Got it. BURKE: Very nice Dr. Yang. CHRISTINA: Applying pressure. BURKE: Gently. (They pull a mass out of the guy's heart.) CHRISTINA: It was attached at the intraventricular septum. are you going to use a graft to repair? BURKE: Someone's been doing their homework. CHRISTINA: 4-0 Prolene please. Thank you very much Boki. ADDISON: Ready to perforate uterus 2. GEORGE: Wait, Dr. Montgomery, my baby's moving. It's really moving, I can't hold it. ADDISON: I need you to hold her still if I'm going to do the c-section. GEORGE: I know. I'm trying. What should I do? It's really moving. ADDISON: I need you to keep her still George. NURSE: You're sending her into distress. You have to get that baby to stop moving. GEORGE: How do I do that? ALEX: Talk O'Malley. (Alex moves towards the table.) GEORGE: Alex... ADDISON: Dr. Karev move away from the table. ALEX: Talk to it, to the baby to calm it down. ADDISON: Karev. GEORGE: Talk about what? ALEX: October 30, 1974, it's the fight known as Rumble in the Jungle. World heavyweight champ George Foreman is pitted against Muhammed Ali. It's his first fight in 3 1/2 years out of the ring. GEORGE: It's working ALEX: Foreman is his favorite to win. He's younger, stronger. ADDISON: Scalpel. ALEX: But he's not prepared for what Ali later called the rope-a-dope. It all starts in the second round. He comes out swinging. Ali's backed up against the ropes. ---------- DEREK: That's not going to stay on. Giving it too much slack CHIEF: You're blocking my light. (He's trying to sew a button onto his shirt.) DEREK: Think of it as a basic corner stitch. CHIEF: I can figure out how to sew on my own buttons, thank you. I am a surgeon. DEREK: Right. CHIEF: Oh for God's sakes. You sew this on for me, I'll get rid of Addison and Sloan. DEREK: Really? CHIEF: No. DEREK: Well, I'll do it anyway. CHIEF: So I heard you've got a sister wandering the halls She planning on moving in too? DEREK: I hope not. CHIEF: Derek I know it's been hard for you. DEREK: He was like my brother. I have four sisters. Four very annoying sisters. Mark was my brother. It's hard. CHIEF: Divorce isn't all it's cracked up to be is it? DEREK: I just want it to be easy. Move on. CHIEF: But you're in a surprising amount of pain. DEREK: You and Adele? CHIEF: I'm sewing on a button for the first time in my life. What does that tell you? DEREK: Technically, I'm sewing. I'm just saying. ---------- ALEX: Dr. Sloan MARK: Just so we're clear, you knew when you stepped into that ER that you were forfeiting your career in plastics, right? ALEX: But, Dr. Sloan... MARK: I need my phone back. ---------- BURKE: Well done. You were very prepared. CHRISTINA: Yes, I'm always prepared. BURKE: I couldn't have done it without you. CHRISTINA: Thank you. BAILEY: Dr. Burke, could we have a moment alone? I just I didn't realize that you were one of them. One of the doctors who have doubts about my abilities. BURKE: Miranda, I'm not. BAILEY: My name was erased from the board. I have to assume that was you. BURKE: Dr. Bailey. BAILEY: I just...I just need to know why. I need you to tell me why you didn't want me in on your surgery. BURKE: I'm afraid I just couldn't use you. BAILEY: I understand. ---------- NANCY: You should have seen the two uteruses. Unbelievable. And a cute baby to boot. DEREK: I'm glad you're enjoying your trip. NANCY: Oh Derek, I'm going. I'm on a plane back in 2 hours. DEREK: So, you're going to report back to mom that... NANCY: That you're you. Still running circles around all the women in your life. But that's to be expected with 4 sisters and a d*ad dad. DEREK: I'm not running circles. NANCY: Can you even remember the last time you were alone? You've never been single. I mean you're fine, but you're not happy. And you're not going to get happy until you get some space. You just need to get away. Away from Addie, away from the intern, just away. Think about what you want. DEREK: Kathleen's the shrink Nancy, not you. NANCY: I gotta go. DEREK: Nancy, thanks for flying out here. It was... thanks ---------- GRETCHEN: Where are we going again. MEREDITH: We need to go upstairs. GRETCHEN: OK. Wait. Wait. Where are we? MEREDITH: We're on the psychiatric floor Gretchen. We need to place you on a 72 hour hold. GRETCHEN: No I'm not crazy! I'm going home MEREDITH: Gretchen. GRETCHEN: No I just need to go home, Please? IZZIE: You know you're just going to hurt yourself again. Isn't that your plan? So that you won't have to take the bar exam? You need some help Gretchen. If the idea of taking an exam makes you hold the palm of your hand to a burner... you need some help. Everyone needs help from time to time. To make sure they're okay, they're ready. I have that. And you need that right now. (She consents.) GRETCHEN: I'm not crazy. IZZIE: I know. GRETCHEN: Just didn't want to fail. IZZIE: I know. ---------- NOELLE: What happened? Did everything go okay? Are my babies okay? ADDISON: The surgery went very well. You have a healthy baby boy. And the labor stopped on our little girl. She's going to be just fine. NOELLE: And Greg? Has Greg come back yet? ADDISON: No, Noelle. I'm sorry. Greg isn't here. (She passes back out.) ADDISON: I want an update every half hour. NOELLE: What happened? My babies? ADDISON: Are just fine Noelle. You're just coming out of anaesthesia. NOELLE: Is Greg back yet. ADDISON: I'm sorry noel he's not here. (She slips away again.) (To George) And be sure to alert me to any fetal distress. NOELLE: What happened? ADDISON: Your babies are fine Noelle, everything is okay. NOELLE: Is Greg back yet? GREG (at the door): I'm right here. NOELLE: Hi. GREG: Hi. I saw our son. He's amazing. But how's our little girl? ---------- MARK: You look like you could use a little cheering up. CALLIE: Not from you. MARK: If I recall I was pretty good at cheering you up. One... two... yep three cheerful times. CALLIE: Dirty. It was not cheerful, it was dirty. And like I said, no. (Alex is listening in.) ---------- MEREDITH: So your sister really doesn't like me. DEREK: Sorry. It's just... she's from the East Coast. MEREDITH: Well I... DEREK: I should have called. MEREDITH: But you didn't. DEREK: I want us to work it's just...It's complicated. I think I need a little time to.. MEREDITH: Take some space. DEREK: Yeah. To clear my head. MEREDITH: Yeah. Okay. Okay. DEREK: Okay. MEREDITH: (VO) There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment, and we may be surprised at the commitments we're willing to let slip out of our grasp. Commitments are complicated. We may surprise ourselves by the commitments we're willing to make. True commitment, takes effort, and sacrifice. Which is why sometimes, we have to learn the hard way, to choose our commitments very carefully.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x06 - Let the Angels Commit"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x07: Where the Boys Are Original Airdate: 11/9/2006 Written by: Mark Wilding Directed by: Daniel Minahan MEREDITH: As surgeons we're trained to look for disease. CHRISTINA: You're going camping? BURKE: With Shepherd, yes. CHRISTINA: With the camping on the ground and everyone peeing behind the same bush. BURKE: With the fresh air. MEREDITH: Sometimes, the disease is easily detected. CHRISTINA: We have back-to-back CABGs. I booked the ORs. BURKE: I cancelled the ORs. CHRISTINA: Why? BURKE: 'Cause I'm going camping with Shepherd. CHRISTINA: But why? ---------- DEREK: Ah, men being men. Mountain men. Men in the wild. BURKE: Ah the road not taken. The uncharted course. Terra incognita. MEREDITH: Most of the time, we need to go step by step. First, probing the surface, looking for any sign of trouble. BURKE: But we do have to make one stop... MEREDITH: A mole or a lesion, or an unwelcome lump. CHIEF: Mountain men in the wild. Terra incognita. You know, this is my first camping trip. DEREK: Oh you don't say. So Preston, any other little surprises? ---------- IZZIE: Okay, sunscreen, your insect repellent, and you're going to need a shovel to bury your poop. GEORGE: Izzie, I'm not five. (Referring to his jacket.) Zip me If Callie calls... tell her... I'm a mountain man... man of the wild, right Dr. Burke? BURKE: Ok, him I invited. GEORGE: Izzie baked us treats! MEREDITH: Have fun with your... space... or whatever. ---------- GEORGE: I just said we needed an extra tent. Do you think Joe misunderstood? JOE: Do you want to follow us, or should we follow you? (Derek mumbles something.) ALEX: Hey guys. GEORGE: That wasn't me, I swear. ---------- MEREDITH: Most of the time, we can't tell what's wrong with somebody just by looking at them. After all, they can look perfectly fine on the outside, while their insides tell us a whole different story. ---------- Callie, Mark, and Addison have an exchange of glances as Mark gets coffee in a break room. MEREDITH: Derek's camping. Taking time, getting space. CHRISTINA: Prestons do not go into the woods. A guy named Preston is going to get his ass kicked by a squirrel. IZZIE: It's basically a slumber party. We do it inside, they do it outside. That's the only difference. MARK: Have you seen what's his face? IZZIE: Alex Karev. MARK: Poor bastard seems to get a thrill out of tagging along after me. MEREDITH: He's camping. MARK: Well in that case how would you like to get a thrill out of tagging along after me? MEREDITH: Dr. Bailey makes the assignments. BAILEY: Dr. Bailey says it's fine. Go. Stephens conference room. You're spending the day with your peer counsellor. IZZIE: Is that a shrink? The hospital is already making me see a shrink. BAILEY: Stephens, go meet your peer. Get counselled. Exciting procedures on the board today Yang. CHRISTINA: Yes, Dr. Bailey... which one would you like me to start with? ---------- BAILEY: Are those monopoly pieces? ERIC: 21 of them to be exact. Mostly houses and hotels. I also swallowed the thimble, the racecar, oh, and the shoe. MOM: Eric and his older brother don't always get along. ERIC: He wouldn't let me play monopoly with him and his friends. This way, nobody could play. BAILEY: Yang, what do you recommend? CHRISTINA: Is this even surgical? BAILEY: Yang. CHRISTINA: Track and inventory the pieces, measure the progress by x-ray. Keep examining the stool. BAILEY: Very good. Enjoy. CHRISTINA: Dr. Bailey, isn't this more of a nurses job? BAILEY: Are you too good to help that boy? CHRISTINA: Yes. (Then, at Bailey's look) No. Definitely not. I just think I'd me more help if I was assisting in a surgery with you. BAILEY: No surgery for you. CHRISTINA: I'm sorry I don't understand. BAILEY: I don't understand why you erased my name from the OR board. CHRISTINA: I don't know what... BAILEY: No don't do that. Don't give me that fake confused look. It irritates me. You know exactly what I'm talking about. You erased my name from Burke's humpty dumpty surgery, you know it, I know it. What I don't know is why. CHRISTINA: I... have no comment. BAILEY: No surgeries Yang. MEREDITH: Okay, before you start, there are rules to this friendship thing or whatever. MARK: The dirty mistresses club has rules? Gosh, you think a club of dirty mistresses would be a little less uptight about things like rules. MEREDITH: Number one, no flirting. Second, no talking about Derek. And C, no giving me the face. MARK: The face... MEREDITH: The McSteamy face. It doesn't work on me. I'm immune. MARK: You know, if I had gone off to the woods, I'd have invited you to keep me warm. MEREDITH: Breaking rules one, two and three. ---------- IZZIE: Sydney, you're my counsellor? SYDNEY: Peer counsellor. We're equals. So how are you? (She gives Izzie a hug.) IZZIE: I'm fine. SYDNEY: That's outside Izzie talking. How's inside Izzie? ---------- MARK: So you and Derek. You guys together or...just answer the question and I'll quit asking. MEREDITH: Derek and I are taking some space. MARK: You're taking space from each other. Or he's taking some space from you? MEREDITH: Derek and I, there's just a lot of water under the thing or whatever. DONNA: My knight in shining poly-cotton. MARK: Good morning, Donna. Vicky. How was the trip? VICKY: Smooth, perfect. DONNA: Seak for yourself. VICKY: She's still having some penis issues. MEREDITH: I'm sorry...am I missing something? VICKY: I think you're missing the fact that Dr. Sloan is planning on removing my husband's penis this afternoon. MEREDITH: Oh and your husband is? DONNA: Right here. ---------- MEREDITH: Daniel Gibson, 34, in for sexual reassignment surgery. MARK: Donna, not Daniel. She's been living as Donna for 2 years, come on Grey. MEREDITH: So essentially, today we are inverting his...um her...uh.. VICKY: Her penis. That's okay. You'll get it. MARK: You know the steps for a vaginoplasty? MEREDITH: Not exactly. MARK: Well if you want to get in on this surgery today, you better learn. DONNA: Don't pay any attention to him, you're doing very well. VICKY: Better than I did when I first found out. MARK: We just need to run a few pre-op labs. Make sure everything's in working order. DONNA: Then surgery today? MARK: Big day Donna. You excited? DONNA: Excited doesn't begin to cover it. MARK: You're going to do great. ---------- (The boys set up camp. George gets rocks to go around the fre, Chief makes himself lunch, Alex sets up a tent.) GEORGE: That is a nice looking picnic basket. CHIEF: Thank you. The concierge at the hotel put it together. We've got crackers, pate, and an assortment of Seattle soft cheeses. You want some? GEORGE: No thanks. ALEX: Dude, he brought silverware. GEORGE: You should talk. Have you ever been camping before? ALEX: What? GEORGE: A t-shirt and sneakers? You'll freeze your ass off. ALEX: So what I'm wearing a jacket. GEORGE: Just don't come crawling to me in the middle of the night when you want to huddle for warmth CHIEF: It's a good looking tent Joe. You and Walter got room for one more? JOE: We thought you'd be sleeping with one of the Doctors. CHIEF: Well Preston's already got O'Malley for a room mate. But just between you and me, these other tents are kind of puny. JOE: Well Walter and I were hoping to share this one. You know... just the two of us. But I guess if you really want to... ALEX: Chief... I don't think you really... CHIEF: They've offered Karev. GEORGE: They want to be alone... (Walter is Joe's boyfriend.) CHIEF: Oh! So you are um... BURKE: Chief. CHIEF: Wonderful... man love. Beautiful My cousin's gay...so I'm hip. Brokeback mountain and all that. BURKE: Who's ready to go fishing? CHIEF: I am! MEREDITH: Guess what I'm doing today? Removing a man's penis. CHRISTINA: You got an S. R. S? Seriously? MEREDITH: He...She is one of Sloan's patients. CHRISTINA: Oh that should be me. I should be turning a penis to a vagina. That should be my penis. IZZIE: I have to hide. Sydney is my peer counsellor. "Heal with LOVE" Sydney. MEREDITH and CHRISTINA: Oh ew. IZZIE: Yeah I'm supposed to shadowing her and dialoguing all day unless I can come up with a medical reason not to. Anybody? Anything? ---------- (Izzie is going through Eric's poo.) IZZIE: Couple of houses and the dog. That's nine pieces so far. I love the dog. I'm always the dog when I play monopoly. ---------- CALLIE: I got a page... ADDISON: Jamie Carr. She slipped and fell in the shower this morning. JAMIE: I can't see my own feet. I did this CALLIE: Nasty break. She doesn't have any meds for the pain? ADDISON: She refused. She's toughing it out. CALLIE: Oh don't tough it out. Just say yes. JAMIE: But the baby... I know Dr. Montgomery said it was alright, but I'll suffer. Is he okay? He was kicking like crazy, but... ADDISON: It's possible that he's just sleeping. Husband: See... our son sleeps. He's sleeping Jamie. JAMIE: Do I need a cast? CALLIE: Definitely. But first we need to straighten the bones out. Then we'll put your arm in this fancy sling. And use gravity to help align the bones. ADDISON: Will you excuse me? I just need to... (Addison has seen something on the ultrasound.) ---------- VICKY: I'll trade you. MEREDITH: Vicky... VICKY: Insurance forms. Donna gets the surgeries and I do the forms. Super fun. MEREDITH: You seem to be handling this remarkably well. VICKY: Well I left at first. When she...when he told me. You plan a life together you know? Kids and... suddenly that's all out the window. Suddenly your husband is this other girl in your house who's borrowing your eye liner and waxing her legs. MEREDITH: But you came back... why? VICKY: Honestly, right now... I have no idea. I'm really going to miss the penis. ---------- (Addison is in a bathroom stall crying.) CALLIE: You okay? ADDISON: I'm ok. I'm fine. I'm good. CALLIE: Don't make me climb over the stall. I'll do it but I'll be pissed 'cause I don't know you that well. (Addison lets her in.) CALLIE: You're not okay. ADDISON: I don't know why. There's no reason that this should affect me this much. I'm used to this I am but.. CALLIE: Used to what? ADDISON: That woman, yesterday, she's just as healthy as can be and today her baby's dad. ---------- CHIEF: So uh...how long have you and Walter been together? JOE: Ten years. Off and on. But now, definitely on. Thinking about kids. CHIEF: That's a big step. JOE: You have kids? CHIEF: No. I work a lot. Adele and I...well she always said she didn't want to raise kids alone. JOE: Walter says the same thing. CHIEF: He does? JOE: Well I'm always working at the bar. But what are you going to do right? Someone has to run the place. CHIEF: Exactly. JOE: But Walter...if I have to make a change, I'll do it. Can't imagine my life without him you know? ---------- BURKE: Very nice O'Malley. GEORGE: At least once a month my dad would take me and my brother to white river. BURKE: Your father taught you well. How are you and Dr. Torres doing these days? GEORGE: Good. She doesn't know it yet, but good. Excellent even. For a while she wanted a certain level of commitment, and I just didn't feel... I was... now I am though. BURKE: So you're stepping up? GEORGE: I'm stepping up. You knew right? That it was time with Christina? BURKE: Right. (Burke tries to bait the hook and his hand tremors. George sees this.) GEORGE: You alright? BURKE: Absolutely. GEORGE: I just... BURKE: We're here to fish, remember? I'm going to see if I can get a bite downstream. ---------- MARK: The test results don't lie. DONNA: Breast cancer? MARK: I'm sorry...I'm really...the needle aspiration showed abnormal cells in your tissue. Rare, but it happens. DONNA: So the hormones I've been taking have been feeding the breast cancer? MARK: Yes, that's why we need to stop the hormone therapy and start the treatment. DONNA: Or the cancer will get worse. The operation? MARK: There would be no point. Once we stop the hormones your breasts will shrink, your facial hair will grow back... VICKY: She'll be a man again. DONNA: What if we do the operation? I keep taking the hormones, what then? MARK: Donna you really want to treat this now while it's still in its early stages. DONNA: So if I keep taking the hormones? MEREDITH: You'd be feeding the cancer. DONNA: I could die? Are you saying if I become a woman, I could die? ---------- ADDISON: They are a happy couple. Look at them. They love each other. They should have everything. Happy people should have...happy things happen to them. I have to tell them.. CALLIE: Wait. The moment you tell them they won't be happy any more. Give them a few more minutes. Let them be happy. A few more minutes. ---------- ALEX: So you getting back with Callie? GEORGE: Yep. ALEX: Trust me man I don't think you really want to do that. GEORGE: Really? ALEX: Really. GEORGE: So when I get back with her I'm going to tell her that we shouldn't see each other any more, and when she asks why, I'm going to tell her, "Alex Karev thinks our relationship isn't such a good idea." ALEX: You think that'll do the trick? Fine suit yourself. ---------- DEREK: This was my camping trip. I was going to come alone. BURKE: So why did you invite me? DEREK: Because. It's a guy trip. You know...mountain men. BURKE: You don't have any friends do you? DEREK: Of course I do. BURKE: Guy friends? DEREK: I just need peace. Space. I have a right to space. And you go and invite half the hospital. BURKE: That's because I have guy friends. ---------- SYDNEY: There you are! I have been looking all over. IZZIE: Dr. Yang needed some help with this patient. She needed help. SYDNEY: Well, patients come first. (She sits down.) CHRISTINA: Oh what... SYDNEY: Oh I'll just wait. IZZIE: Wait? SYDNEY: Wait until you're finished. Then we can dialogue. ---------- MEREDITH: So what happens with Donna now? MARK: She goes back to being an unhappy man who's stuck with a penis. There are millions of us out there. MEREDITH: You're unhappy with your penis? MARK: I could be a lot less unhappy. Maybe it's good that he's taking some space. Maybe you two aren't meant to be together. Look, Derek... on the outside he holds it all together, but he's damaged goods Meredith. It's my fault. I damaged him. Maybe forever. You don't want to drink from a poisoned well do you? VICKY: Dr. Sloan? You have to talk to her... she wants to go through with the operation. ---------- CHIEF: Joe and Walter got tired of not catching any fish. What do you make of that? BURKE: Joe and Walter? CHIEF: No, no. Joe and Walter are great. I meant that we hadn't caught any fish. Any theories. DEREK: Just one. Fish generally don't like to go where there's a lot of noise. ---------- GEORGE: Did you notice anything going on with Burke? ALEX: No. GEORGE: 'Cause before I thought I saw...what are you doing? You don't use bait when you're casting! It's going to fall off when it hits the water. Here. What you want to do... ALEX: She's sleeping with Sloan dude. GEORGE: What? ALEX: She's sleeping with Sloan. GEORGE: No she's not. ALEX: Torres is doing Sloan. GEORGE: You better take that back. ---------- DEREK: People moving, chatting. laughing, that sort of thing. That sort of thing that lets the fish know they're not alone. BURKE: So I invited other people. DEREK: This is not a frat party. (They look behind them to see Alex and George fighting.) CHIEF: Hey what are you guys doing? Break it up! ---------- CHIEF: I don't condone fighting. I don't like fighting. I think it's foolish. But you two idiots seem determined to bat the hell out of each other. So if you're going to do it, you're going to do it by my rules. GEORGE: Rules? CHIEF: Yes, O'Malley, rules, to protect your hands... so you don't do irreparable damage. ALEX: You're dad. CHIEF: Damage that would end your careers before they even started. So with that in mind, we're going to do open handed combat. BOTH: A slap fight? CHIEF: Open handed combat. No scratching... DEREK: This is ridiculous. Karev will kll him. BURKE: Not necessarily. CHIEF: No punching no kicking, no wrestling moves of any kind. Are there any questions? GEORGE: That doesn't leave us with much. CHIEF: All right. BURKE: O'Malley's a scrapper. DEREK: A scrapper? He's going to destroy him. BURKE: He's tougher than he looks. Silent but deadly. DEREK: This is immature and stupid. I think you'd agree with me. BURKE: They're letting off some steam. This is why you don't have any guy friends. DEREK: This is why I should have come alone. ---------- DONNA: I've wanted this since before I can remember. I've waited forever. I'm not stopping now. MARK: Donna listen to me. DONNA: If you don't do the operation, I'll go to New York and find another doctor. MEREDITH: You're going to have a hard time finding a surgeon... DONNA: I will find one MARK: Donna I'm trying to save your life. DONNA: As a man. I am not a man. I'll fight the cancer, I'll just fight it as a woman. VICKY: For God's sake, wake up Daniel. DONNA: My name is Donna. VICKY: I'm not going to stand by and watch you kll yourself. DONNA: I need Vicky to love me. But I need her to love...ME. ---------- JAMIE: Oh, please tell me it's going to stop hurting soon. CALLIE: You're almost done. TED: When our son's 15 and he's yelling you've never done anything for him, you can guilt him with the wrist. ADDISON: Ted, Jamie, I need to talk to you. About the baby. TED: Dr. Montgomery... JAMIE: You have to say it. I won't believe it unless you say it. You have to SAY it. ---------- CHRISTINA: Thanks for this Izzie...thank you. No good deed goes unpunished. IZZIE: Good deed. You're making me dig through crap. It's not like I asked her to spend the day with me. SYDNEY: Oh. Ohhwee. How's it going in there? Any luck? CHRISTINA: Okay, I can't have that grinning puppet head stare at me another second so just go. IZZIE: Christina... CHRISTINA: Hey, this is my crap. This is my crap. Bailey assigned me to this crap, you get Sydney. IZZIE: Fine. Come on Sydney, we can go. SYDNEY: Okey-dokey-pokey. ERIC: Man, I thought my brother and I had problems. But you two are just idiots. CHRISTINA: Oh and swallowing monopoly pieces? Wasn't exactly a genious move. You could have really hurt yourself. ERIC: But I didn't did i? And now mom's going to let me play all the monopoly I want. That's all that matters, getting to play. CHRISTINA: And that makes you smart? ERIC: You're fishing through my poop, how smart are you? ---------- (George and Alex are going at it.) BURKE: Whatever it was Karev, don't take it back. DEREK: We don't even know why they're fighting. BURKE: Arms, O'Malley, don't drop your arms! (Then they attck each other.) CHIEF: Hey! No wresting! DEREK: This is stupid. BURKE: George is defending his honor. Karev says that Sloan's been sleeping with Torres. DEREK: What? (Joe and Walter walk up.) WALTER: Next time we are not going camping with straight guys (Alex grabs George and starts pushing him, and they land against Walter, who is knocked down and hits his head on a rock.) ---------- CHRISTINA: So basically, you're getting paid to study penises all day? MEREDITH: I'm studying for Steamy's reassignment surgery. CHRISTINA: You like McSteamy? MEREDITH: Yes. NO! Not like that! It's just... he thinks I'm better off without Derek's baggage. He says there's too much history there. Maybe in his own sick twisted way, he's trying to protect me. CHRISTINA: Protect you? Maybe. Hey, um...when your mother was first diagnosed with Alzheimer's, why didn't you tell anyone? MEREDITH: She asked me not to. Why? CHRISTINA: So you think it was right to keep her secret? MEREDITH: Yes. Why? CHRISTINA: Even if it meant you had to fish crap out of a toilet all day and probably for years to come. MEREDITH: Ok, rewind. Whose secret are you keeping? (She gets paged to Eric's room.) CHRISTINA: What happened? NURSE: He was fine one minute, then... CHRISTINA: Eric, lay down... his abdomen is rigid. There's blood in his vomit, He's perfed. Page Bailey. ---------- BURKE: There's a lot of blood, but it didn't penetrate the Gilia. WALTER: Is that a good thing? DEREK: Yeah, it means we don't have to do deep stitches. JOE: Using a fishing hook? BURKE: Don't worry. We sterilized it, and clipped off the barb. It's as good as a needle. DEREK: All right. Wound's clean. Just keep some pressure on that chief. Walter, we're going to do some stitches. WALTER: Is it going to hurt? DEREK: Yes. JOE: It's okay. CHIEF: Karev, you want to sew him up? JOE: No... I want an attending. ALEX: Thanks dude. JOE: You're doing some crazy MacGuyver surgery in the middle of the woods. I want what's best for my guy. No offence. GEORGE: Don't worry Dr. Burke's really good at doing this. You are, right? BURKE: Right. There's still a little bleeding there. CHIEF: Hold on Walter. DEREK: Got it? BURKE: I always have it. (George had been watching Burke's hand the entire time... waiting for a tremor.) ---------- (Christina clears her throat.) BAILEY: You want something? CHRISTINA: He is my patient. I've been with him all day. If there's any possibility... BAILEY: Why'd you erase my name from the board? CHRISTINA: I don't know what you're talking about... BAILEY: You really want to go head to head with me on this? You really want that? Right now? This second? You chose your own fate. ---------- SYDNEY: So tell me about Denny. IZZIE: What? SYDNEY: Yeah it helps to talk about what happened. So, as much as you can. IZZIE: Okay, we are done here. SYDNEY: Izzie, really... it helps to share. IZZIE: No, I don't want to share. You know what I've been doing all day? Sifting through feces. I would rather sift through feces than talk to you. And now you bring up Denny like you want me to gossip with you? SYDNEY: I understand this must be difficult... IZZIE: What you cut someone's LVAD wire, you fell in love with a man and he died? SYDNEY: Well no, but... IZZIE: Well then how in the hell could you possibly know? MARK: Grey, what's our next step? MEREDITH: Continue the primary incision in the ventral side of the shaft. I am surprised that you agreed to do the surgery. MARK: People don't come to me to fix what's on the outside, they come to me to fix what's on the inside. And if that means giving someone a straighter nose, or bigger breasts, or..if that helps a person get by.. I dont run. I don't hide. I don't take space. ---------- ALEX: Well don't look at me, I didn't start it. CHIEF: Karev... ALEX: Look I just came out here to have some fun. Then he starts jumping all over me about what I'm wearing. He just rubs me the wrong way. CHIEF: You're on a camping trip. You're supposed to be enjoying the great outdoors. ALEX: You know I grew up in a bar? Literally, in a bar. My dad was always doing one of two things in there. Playing music or drinking. Dude never even took me to the park. I just figured this was my chance to get out with they guys. The one time I try... CHIEF: You wanted to be a different person. (Referring to Joe and Walter.) They're a happy couple. ALEX: Yeah. CHIEF: I miss my wife. BURKE: You have high standards. GEORGE: You have high standards. BURKE: Your standards are too high. You... make people out to be...and people make mistakes. Your standards are too high. You see a flaw and you attck. GEORGE: You're saying that if Christina did something like... BURKE: Christina and I are a team. We are a team. You're either a part of the team or you play alone for the rest of your life. (Jamie is having to push out her baby.) ADDISON: Good, push Jamie. (Jamie gives up.) I need you to push one more time. Jamie. Ted. One more time, push. We got it. (Addison hands her the d*ad baby, and Callie gives Addison a supportive pat on the shoulder.) ---------- BURKE: So that Mark Sloan... He's bad news. DEREK: Like a cancer. He infects everything. What are we, 3 hours of Seattle and still he infects everything? You know I thought that if I just got away for a while I'd get some answers...a fresh start. CHIEF: Fresh starts, no such thing. DEREK: Any other words of wisdom that you'd like to give us Chief? CHIEF: I'm living in a hotel. I buy most of my clothes from the hotel gift shop and my wife wont speak to me.\ BURKE: Well don't look at me. I came out here for the same reasons you did. I have no wisdom. There is no wisdom here. DEREK: So in other words, we're all a bunch of idiots. BURKE: Yes... ---------- SYDNEY: I lost a kid...my first year. It was my fault. And I just couldn't ...so I had a breakdown, I got time off, and when I came back I put a smile on my face, and everybody thought I was fine. I lost a kid. It comes in waves Izzie. There's a lull and then another wave hits you. I wasn't trying to pry. I just wanted you to know...it's okay not to be fine sometimes. IZZIE: I miss him. All the time I miss him. It's not waves it's constant. All the time. And I walk through the doors of this hospital, and I want to be here I do. But I don't know...if I can be a surgeon again. And I can't talk about it because it scares me too much. Okay? SYDNEY: Okay. ---------- MEREDITH: You came back VICKY: I was heading home. I was on my way to the airport...then...you asked before why I came back the first time. I tried not to. I went on dates. I had a lot of great first dates with guys who were planning to stay guys. And you know you have a great date and you want to tell your best friend about it. My best friend is Daniel. Donna. Then you have a few bad dates and...she's my best friend. She knows me. She loves me. She's my husband. At the end of the day, it's Donna...even when she hurts me. Even when I hate her. MEREDITH: She's the one you want to talk to. MEREDITH: (narrating) Not all wounds are superficial. ---------- ADDISON: So you're sleeping with Sloan? CALLIE: Was. ADDISON: Me too was. Which is just a hailstorm of self loathing and misery. CALLIE: Yeah. ADDISON: You want to get a drink or something? (Callie's pager goes off.) ADDISON: Some other time then. CALLIE: Yeah. MEREDITH: (narrating) Most wounds run deeper than imagined. You can't see them with the naked eye. BAILEY (Referring to Eric): He'll make a full recovery CHRISTINA: You're back. BURKE: Yes. CHRISTINA: I'm glad you're back. BURKE: Me too. ---------- CALLIE: George we need to talk. GEORGE: Yeah, I think we do. My dad? MEREDITH: And then there are the wounds that take us by surprise. (George's dad is lying there in a hospital bed.) ---------- MARK: So this could be just a drink. Or this could be more than a drink. MEREDITH: I could not start something with you. MARK: You could. Start over Meredith. Start fresh. (He gets a page.) MARK: Saved by the bell. Order me another beer. DEREK: Hi. I'm Derek Shepherd. MEREDITH: What are you doing? DEREK: We met at this bar, do you remember? We met and you said "I'm just a girl" and I said "I'm just a guy" and we started this thing. We started this thing. You didn't know anything about me .The good ,the bad, the wife. You didn't even know my name. You didn't know me. I want you to know me. I want to start over, from the beginning. So hi. Derek Shepherd. MEREDITH: You walked away, and now it's too late. There's too much water under then thing or whatever. DEREK: Meredith. Please MEREDITH (narrating): The trick to any wound or disease is to dig down deep and find the real source of the injury. MEREDITH: Hi. I'm Meredith Grey. It's nice to meet you. DEREK: Very nice to meet you too. (They lean in for a kiss.) MEREDITH: (narrating) And once you've found it... try like hell to heal that sucker.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x07 - Where the Boys Are"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x08: Staring at the Sun Original Airdate: 11/16/2006 Written by: Gabrielle Stanton & Harry Werksman Directed by: Jeff Melman MEREDITH: (narrating) Many people don't know that the human eye has a blind spot in its field of vision. There's a part of the world that we are literally blind to. (Meredith and Derek are taking a bubble bath.) MEREDITH: What did I say? DEREK: Seriously. MEREDITH: Seriously. DEREK: Seriously. MEREDITH: Seriously, we're taking it slow. DEREK: We can take it slow. We can take it incredibly slow. MEREDITH: We're taking it slower than that. We're starting fresh. DEREK: And starting fresh means no sex because? MEREDITH: Because we started with sex last time and it didn't go very well. Plus the waiting is fun. From now on I wanna be bright and shiny. DEREK: Bright and shiny, huh? MEREDITH: (narrating) The problem is, sometimes our blind spots shield us from things that really shouldn't be ignored. MEREDITH: Mom. The nurses tell me you haven't been eating. ELLIS: No time. I've been in the OR all morning. And i've got back to back surgeries the rest of the day, so... MEREDITH: I'm sorry I haven't been visiting it just... ELLIS: Look I don't have time to coddle you right now. I'm trying to save lives here. Do you understand. Do you? CHIEF: Dr. Grey. MEREDITH: Chief. ELLIS: Richard! (She goes to hug him and receives some baked goods in a box.) For me? You shouldn't have. CHIEF: The nurses said she hasn't been eating. ELLIS: Oh you wonderful man. CHIEF: I'm interrupting. I'll go. MEREDITH: No, chief. You stay. I'll go. MEREDITH: (narrating) Sometimes our blind spots keep our lives bright and shiny. MEREDITH: Today is the day people. Today is the day when dark and twisty Meredith disappears forever. And bright and shiny Meredith takes her place. You're probably not going to want to be friends with me anymore cause the sheer intensity of my happiness will make your teeth hurt. That's okay, 'cause life is good. Life is good. What's going on? (Everyone is gathered around George, who has someone's chart.) IZZIE: George's dad was admitted last night. MEREDITH: Oh my God, is he okay? GEORGE: He's fine. IZZIE: He passed out, ht the floor and fractured his clavicle. GEORGE: His clavicle is fine. Callie said... she said it's fine. MEREDITH: Are those his AM labs? ALEX: Complaining of severe abdominal pain. CHRISTINA: He doesn't have peritoneal signs, that's good. BAILEY: Has anybody seen... GEORGE: I was just looking at it. BAILEY: Don't you think me reading it is more important than you reading it? GEORGE: Sure. Fine. He's going to be fine. BAILEY: You're on SCUT today. You'll be distracted. GEORGE: No I wont... BAILEY: Family members do not treat family members. SCUT. CHRISTINA: I'm scrubbing in on a surgery with Dr. Burke this morning. BAILEY: Of course you are. Karev, Sloan. Grey, pit. Stephens shadow Karev. And let me remind you again of the rules of your probation. ALEX: I think she knows the rules Dr. Bailey. BAILEY: No touching patients, no talking to patients, no rolling your eyes at patients...or your superiors. ---------- DEREK: Hey, good morning Addison! ADDISON: What's that supposed to mean? DEREK: It's a greeting. Used in civilized cultures in their civilized environments. ADDISON: You're smiling. DEREK: It's called happiness. I understand why you wouldn't recognize it. ADDISON: Wait...So we're being mature about this? DEREK: Yes. We are going to peacefully co-exist in this hospital. Unless you've reconsidered moving back to New York. (She smiles a negative.) Okay then, peacefully co-exist. ADDISON: Interesting. DEREK: Yes, we're adults, we're educated, I think we're capable of many many things. Come on let's shake on it. (She is still wearing her wedding rings.) ADDISON: So I'm still wearing the rings. I think they're stuck. DEREK: Have you tried soap? I hear it's good and slippery. (He bursts into laughter.) ADDISON: You are a very strange person Derek. DEREK: I am just bright and shiny, Addison, Bright and shiny. CALLIE: No, so then I just popped his shoulder back into place. He didn't even flinch. Your brother is hard core. GEORGE: Callie, what are... BAILEY: Looks like you've got a full house Mr. O'Malley. MR. O'MALLEY: Just waiting on the wife. She's in DC chaperoning a field trip. She'll be back tonight. CALLIE: His clavicle is still hurting, so I added PRN morphine every 4 hours. BAILEY: And I scheduled your endoscopy for this afternoon. BROTHER 1: And endo-what? GEORGE: Scope. It's like...a camera. Brother 1; That sounds dangerous. Is it dangerous? GEORGE: It's not dangerous. BROTHER 1: I asked the doctor. BROTHER 2: Yeah let the doctor speak Georgie. GEORGE: White coat...let's look at the white coat. BROTHER 2: What about an x-ray. 'Cause I had that once and I feel like... GEORGE: Shut up...just both of you shut up. BAILEY: O'Malley. ALL 4 BOYS: What? (They all burst in to laughter.) MARK: Ah, excellent. My invaluable intern. Is it bring-a-hot-blond-to-work day? Nobody told me. IZZIE (coughing): Sexual harassment. ALEX: Dr. Stephens is shadowing me today, so... IZZIE: What case do you need us on? MARK: It's a really tragic one. Just this morning I found out that I have over two weeks worth of dry cleaning that needs to be picked up STAT. ALEX: That's it? Cool. MARK: See, we're like a well-oiled machine, you and me. I also need you two to get me a sandwich from that pathetic excuse for a deli, Karev you know the one I like. But go easy on the mayo this time. I think you're trying to kll me. ---------- GEORGE: I don't see why I can't at least help with my daddy's endoscopy. BAILEY: What about "no working with family" do you understand? GEORGE: I'm not asking to do the procedure... BAILEY: Fine. Pick an intern. GEORGE: What? BAILEY: I'm being kind. You want an intern assigned to your dad's case? Fine. Pick an intern. Right now. (George walks into Burke's surgery. Christina is taking the lead.) BURKE: Good. Now we want to place the partial Occluding clamp on the aorta. Slowly. Good. Now we want to make sure all the grafts are deaired before you remove the venus and aorta cannulus. GEORGE: He's letting her decanulate the heart by herself? NURSE: Freaking unbelievable, huh? ---------- BAILEY: What do we have? EMT: Mia Hanson. 5 year old female, crush injury to the abdomen. Blunt trauma to the head. Her BP is 90/60. Pulse is 110 DEREK: How was she injured? EMT: Backed over by her mom's SUV. ANNA: She's uh... her blood type is A- and she's allergic to penicillin and wheat... I'm so sorry Mia, I am so sorry baby. MEREDITH: Has she had anything to eat today? ANNA: Um cereal this morning around 6:30. MEREDITH: Okay, Mrs. Hanson, we're going to take care of your daughter. MRS. HANSON: I'm Mrs. Hanson, Mia is my child. Anna is just the nanny who ran over my daughter. ---------- DEREK: I'm going to examine your neck okay? MEREDITH: It's okay Mia, my name is Meredith. And Dr. Shepherd and Dr. Bailey are just trying to see where you're hurt. MR. HANSON: What happened? MRS. HANSON: She ran over Mia in the drive way. MR. HANSON: She what? ANNA: She wasn't supposed to be in the driveway...Mrs. Hanson told me to go get some milk and i...i didn't see her. MR. HANSON: How do you not see a child standing in the drive way? Where were you? MRS. HANSON: What? MR. HANSON: Where were you that you couldn't watch Mia for five minutes? MRS. HANSON: I was supposed to be in court. MR. HANSON: Oh so you were on the phone. MRS. HANSON: I was letting them know that I was going to be late. MR. HANSON: Instead of watching Mia? MRS. HANSON: Oh so now this is my fault? BAILEY: Hey! It's the car's fault okay? SUV's have blind spots the size of Jupiter. And all this yelling and fighting and placing blame is not going to help your child. MRS. HANSON: Is she going to be okay? DEREK: She has blood in her ear canal. We need to get her upstairs for a CT. ANNA: It's going to be okay, baby girl. MRS. HANSON: Get away from her. Now. ANNA: What? MRS. HANSON: Get out. ---------- GEORGE: I can't believe you just...you just decannulated a heart all by yourself. CHRISTINA: I did not decannulate a heart by myself. I assisted Dr. Burke, who decannulated a heart. GEORGE: Why are you being modest? Modest looks weird on you. CHRISTINA: It's no big deal George. BURKE: How's your father O'Malley? Anything new? GEORGE: He needs an endoscopy. And Dr. Bailey won't let me be the intern on his case. But she said I could pick someone, and I was wondering if Christina could do it. CHRISTINA: Why? BURKE: That shouldn't be a problem. CHRISTINA: Yes it is. We have a corotid endorectomy at noon. BURKE: Oh. I'll push it. O'Malley's father deserves the best. GEORGE: Thank you Dr. Burke. BURKE: Not a problem O'Malley. CHRISTINA: Your dad better get something interesting wrong with him real fast. GEORGE: You're sick. You're a sick, horrible person. ---------- IZZIE: Tell me again why you put up with this crap? ALEX: Cause one day he's going to crack and let me in on a case. IZZIE: Are you sure you want to do plastics that badly? MARK: There you are. Did you go all the way to New York for my pastrami? ALEX: Extra spicy, extra lettuce, low on mayo. ADDISON: Mark... what are you doing? MARK: Lunch. You want my pickle? ADDISON: Seattle Grace is a teaching hospital. And part of your job is to teach. Your interns aren't your slaves. MARK: Fine. No pickle for you. ADDISON: Did you see that? CHIEF: Hmm? ADDISON: Sloan! He's using his interns to pick up his dry cleaning...and his lunch. CHIEF: I have to do an endoscopy. ADDISON: What the hell is going on with the men in this hospital? ---------- MARK: How you doing Mr. Jeffre's. FRANK: Oh Frank's doing okay. He'd be doing a lot better if the twins were even. ALEX: The twins? FRANK: Frank's new pecs. IZZIE: Who is Frank? FRANK: You're looking at him (He wink) MARK: Frank, these are interns. Apparently this is a teaching hospital. I'm supposed to be teaching them. Karev? ALEX: Frank Jeffres is post op day 3 for pectoral enhancement surgery. There was a slight complication when a seroma formed. MARK (yawning): And what is a seroma? IZZIE: It's a build up of blood and fluid unDerek the skin. Sorry. MARK: That concludes today's teaching. A tube was inserted into Mr. Jeffres chest to drain the fluid. I want you to monitor him, check the tube for fluid output and change his dressings. Dr. Stephens...i guess you can...watch. ALEX: Actually Dr. Stephens is an excellent Doctor. MARK: Yeah. That's what I hear. GEORGE: You decannulated a heart this morning. CHRISTINA: I did not... GEORGE: Yes you did. And when we were fishing, I noticed something wierd with his hand like it had a spasm... CHRISTINA: Okay why are you even saying that? It's not funny. GEORGE: I didn't say it was funny, I said it was wierd. And him letting you decannulate a heart is wierd. CHRISTINA: Um you should sit with your father, cause if you want something to worry about, you should worry about him. GEORGE: My father is fine. He's good. Don't... this is Burke. Do you think that... (She walks away) ---------- MIA: I want Anna MEREDITH: Mommy and Daddy are right here. We're just going to take some pictures. Okay. this is a big camera. MIA: I don't like it. BAILEY: Grey, keep her still. MRS. HANSON: Mia, baby, It's okay,. mommy's here. MIA: Where's Anna? MRS. HANSON: You need to be still. MIA: I want Anna. MRS. HANSON: How about I sing the goodnight song? And you pretend it's bedtime and stay still okay? Goodnight Mia, goodnight mommy, goodnight daddy... MIA: No, you're singing it wrong. MRS. HANSON: I am? I'm singing it wrong? MIA: I want Anna. MR. HANSON: She's in the waiting room honey, I'll get her. Mrs Hanson: John. Let's all sing it together okay? MIA: No, I want Anna. ---------- JERRY: So you pick a car. CALLIE: Okay, um 1968 mustang Gt fastback. JERRY: That's interesting. That's hot... very hot... the car. RONNY: Right... Georgie, how's dad? GEORGE: Fine, they're not done yet but he's fine. Can I talk to you Dr. Torres? CALLIE: Sure. GEORGE: What are you doing? CALLIE: I'm talking to your brothers. GEORGE: You don't have to do that. CALLIE: It's okay I don't mind. I'm pretty sure Ronny and Jerry both have a thing for me. I was going to go with Jerry 'til he went all1957 Bel-Air. I was like... really? GEORGE: Thank you for trying to help out with my family. But it's really not necessary. CALLIE: George, I'm kidding about your brothers... I'm kidding about your brothers, come on. GEORGE: Callie I'm serious. I can handle my family on my own. You broke up with me, remember? ---------- (George watches in as the procedure begins.) BAILEY: We may have to do a partial nephrectomy. MEREDITH: Do you think you can save Mia's kidney? BAILEY: Only if we can stop the bleeders. Here, cauterize as I go. Thank you. You poor baby. It's not going to be an easy recovery. MEREDITH: Well with parents like that, she didn't have it easy to begin with. BAILEY: People do the best they can Dr. Grey. MEREDITH: They don't know their kid's blood type. They don't know her favorite song. People want high-power careers. I get that. But they should think twice before having kids. Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't mean.. BAILEY: What that I should be home with my baby instead of here with this girl and an intern who can't cauterize bleeders? MEREDITH: Dr. Bailey... BAILEY: If I were you Dr. Grey, I would keep my eye on the surgical area and my mouth shut. ---------- BURKE: O'Malley, how's it going with your dad? GEORGE: Good. The chief's doing the endoscopy so he's in good hands. That was an amazing surgery this morning, how you let Christina decannulate the heart. BURKE: She shows tremendous promise as a cardiothorasic surgeon. GEORGE: She says she didn't do it. BURKE: Probably didn't want to rub it in. Make anyone jealous. GEORGE: We're talking about Christina. Everything alright with you? BURKE: I'm fine. GEORGE: Cause if anything ever wasn't you know you could talk to me right? You've been through a lot lately, getting sht...it can't be easy. BURKE: Yeah. GEORGE: Has is not been easy? BURKE: I'm fine. Send my best to your dad. GEORGE: Okay. ---------- ADDISON: Hey. DEREK: Hey! ADDISON: So this mature thing, how far does it go? DEREK: Meaning what? ADDISON: Meaning is it pleasantries in the hallway or do we actually interact? DEREK: I don't know, that sounds drastic. ADDISON: I'm worried about Richard, he's been down lately. DEREK: Well he's separated from his wife. That usually doesn't make a person giddy. Except in my case. ADDISON: I think he needs someone to talk to. DEREK: So talk to him. ADDISON: No I think we both should. You know, so he knows he has people to turn to. DEREK: Cause he's a little depressed? ADDISON: No because I don't think he's spoken to Adele in weeks, he's our friend and he's always been there for us. DEREK: Once you get divorced, doesn't that mean that your wife is supposed to stop nagging you? Maybe if you took the rings off it would help. ADDISON: Are you going to come with me or not? DEREK: Fine, yes. I'll come. Let's do it. ADDISON: Good. And I'll try soap. For the rings I mean. DEREK: Okay. ---------- FRANK: Oh yeah... that's what I'm talking about. Look at you! Do they still look lopsided? From the seroma? ALEX: No it looks like most of the swelling has gone down. FRANK: Yeah? Oh yeah. Hey Dr. Stephens would you take a look at the twins? Frank would like a woman's perspective. ALEX: You're just looking. (Izzie looks at Frank's chest.) IZZIE: Uh yep. Looks pretty even to me. Very defined. And the redness should go away in a couple of days. FRANK: Good. Frank got them for his girlfriend. He doesn't want her to see them until they're perfect. ALEX: Your girlfriend asked you to get pec implants? FRANK: No Frank's girlfriend joined a gym and got a trainer named Lars. What kind of name is that...Lars? IZZIE: So you got fake pecs cause you're jealous of a guy with a fake name? FRANK: My last girl friend, Leena, left me for a guy with hair, so I got plugs. This time Frank's not taking any chances. Frank sees the signs of discontent, Frank's fighting back. IZZIE: I don't know. I just don't get the whole fake boob thing, no offense. FRANK: No these are top of the line. They look real they feel natural. No really. Feel them, really. Feel them. (Izzie pokes his chest.) IZZIE: Ooh, very solid. FRANK: And real. IZZIE: I don't know about that. FRANK: Well compare them to his (He points to Alex.) ALEX: I'm not involved with this. IZZIE: Oh don't be such a baby. (He lifts up his scrub top and Izzie puts one hand on each guy's chest. In walks Mark.) MARK: This... this is why I don't work with interns. ---------- BAILEY: Mrs. Hanson? MRS. HANSON: Is she alright? BAILEY: Yes, we were able to stop the bleeding. Dr. Shepherd has ordered an MRI for her scull fracture. Hopefully she won't need any more surgery. MRS. HANSON: Oh thank God. BAILEY: She's in recovery. Dr. Grey will take you up to her. MRS. HANSON: Thank you. Can we wait just a minute? My husband went down stairs to us a land line. His battery died. MEREDITH: Sure. MRS. HANSON: So Mia, she's okay? MEREDITH: Oh she is. She uh, keeps asking for Anna. MRS. HANSON: We fired Anna. MEREDITH: Oh. She just seems very attached. MRS. HANSON: That's my fault. According to my husband because I'm a working mother. He a working dad, but apparently that's not the issue. I love my job. I love Mia more. She's my baby...she's my...I love my daughter. I love my job. I'm not good at the mom stuff, but I'm good at my job. ---------- MEREDITH: I mean why bother to have a kid if you're only going to see it on weekends and holidays? Might as well just get a cat. GEORGE: I talked to Burke, I think he's fine. CHRISTINA: You did what? MEREDITH: What's wrong with Burke? CHRISTINA: Nothing's wrong with Burke. GEORGE: You know he let her decannulate a heart this morning? MEREDITH: You decannulated a heart this morning? Bitch. CHRISTINA: No not by myself. GEORGE: Now she's lying about it. ALEX: Yang decannulated a heart. Why is Alex not surprised? IZZIE: Izzie isn't either. Last week she was digging through crap, this week she's fondling man boobs. No decannulating hearts for Izzie.. GEORGE: Why are you lying about decannulating the heart. CHRISTINA: I didn't. IZZIE: Izzie and Alex do not believe you. MEREDITH: What are you two doing? IZZIE: Izzie and Alex have a patient who speaks about himself in the third person. ALEX: They thought it was annoying at first, but now they kind of like it. MEREDITH: Good. Is it going to stop soon? CHRISTINA: Wow, what happened? This morning you were all bright and shiny, and asking to be kicked in the face. MEREDITH: I am. I'm bright. I'm shiny. CHRISTINA: Yeah. IZZIE: Izzie thinks this whole bright and shiny thing is getting kind of old. ALEX: Alex agrees. ---------- DEREK: We think you're depressed. CHIEF: Both of you? ADDISON: Yes DEREK: Yeah CHIEF: Well for the two of you to agree on something I must be damn near suicidal. ADDISON: We agree on things. DEREK: We agree on this. ADDISON: So start talking. CHIEF: Adele and I... she wants me to step down as chief. Retire. DEREK: Retire? Is she crazy? What would you do? ADDISON: Spend a little more time with his wife? DEREK: She's being unreasonable. ADDISON: She wants to know that their marriage is a priority to him. DEREK: She's using his work as an excuse. ADDISON: Or he is. Some men use work, some use other women. DEREK: Some women use other men. CHIEF: I've been visiting Ellis Grey. ADDISON: I was lonely, and you had checked out. I was lonely. CHIEF: I work, I visit Ellis. That's my day. DEREK: You gave up on us first, I was there. CHIEF: I make time for Ellis, I don't make time for Adele. ADDISON: There is something driving a wedge between Richard and Adele. Now maybe you don't see it but I do, and so does Adele. DEREK: Well maybe he sees it and doesn't want to do anything about it. ADDISON: He's got to do something about it! That's what marriage is built on. Change. Change keeps marriage alive. DEREK: The man has a right to do whatever he wants to. CHIEF: STOP... helping me. I miss my wife. I want her back. I don't want my marriage to be over. ADDISON: Richard, your marriage isn't over until you decide it is. DEREK: Right. ADDISON: Until you decide that the sacrifice just isn't worth it. DEREK: Right. (A knock at the door.) CHIEF: Come in. Oh Yang, what is it? (She looks grim.) CHIEF: O'Malley! GEORGE: Yeah? CHIEF: I have your father's test results. ---------- JERRY: We've been waiting here forever. Where's the doctor? GEORGE: Dr. Webber will be here in a minute. JERRY: They don't tell you anything, huh? Until you're a real doctor... GEORGE: I am a real doctor, Ronny. I just... I'm not dad's doctor. MR. O'MALLEY: What is it Georgie? GEORGE: Let's just wait for Dr. Webber. CHRISTINA: I think he's expecting you to talk to him. GEORGE: He's coming...he said he was coming. CHRISTINA: He's coming later. You should tell your dad. MR. O'MALLEY: What's with all the whispering? GEORGE: The biopsy results were abnormal. MR. O'MALLEY: Well is abnormal bad or just different? Georgie? CHRISTINA: Sir...you have cancer in your oesophagus which has spread to your stomach. You'll need an operation to remove it. And you'll need to undergo chemo and radiation. I'm sorry. ---------- GEORGE: They're going to try to operate soon. This week I think. It's stage 3 metastatic cancer. And my brothers are... and uh... Callie slept with Sloan. I just can't... I can't deal with any of it. I spent the entire day worrying about Burke... there's nothing wrong with Burke. God, my dad has cancer, and I can't even look him in the face. Christina had to tell him what was wrong. Christina... IZZIE: Nobody gets it right with their own family. MEREDITH: I certainly don't. GEORGE: Yeah. IZZIE: Callie slept with Sloan? GEORGE: I don't get you people. MEREDITH: Us with the boobs? We make a lot of bad decisions. ALEX: Dude, I still can't believe you went through all this for a chick. FRANK: What you never did anything crazy for love? ALEX: Not like this. FRANK: You have a girlfriend? ALEX: No. FRANK: Dr. Stephens? Frank can sense the vibes. ALEX: I'm not talking about this with you. FRANK: She left you for another guy? Frank's ht a nerve. ALEX: It's more complicated than that. FRANK: Then uncomplicate it then man. Grand gesture is what I'm talking about. Just figure out what she wants and make it happen. Forget all about the other guy. Trust Frank. Frank knows. ---------- DEREK: What do we got? MEREDITH: Second MRI report shows bleeding in Mia's brain. DEREK: Oh damn it. I gotta go in. Try and relieve the pressure. MEREDITH: Two surgeries in one day? DEREK: But she's tough. And right now we don't have any other options. Not so bright and shiny. MR. O'MALLEY: I thought the cancer was in my gut. What are we looking at my heart for. CHRISTINA: Your EKG showed some abnormalities. We have to make sure your heart is strong enough to support you through surgery. MR. O'MALLEY: You're a smart girl. CHRISTINA: Yes. MR. O'MALLEY: George told me you were the best intern I could have on my case. CHRISTINA: He said that? MR. O'MALLEY: He said you were the best intern in the hospital. You keep everyone on their toes...even him. ECHO GUY: Dr. Yang. Take a look at this. (She looks at the echo.) CHRISTINA: Okay. ---------- GEORGE: You paged me. What is Burke doing in there? CHRISTINA: I did a pre-op echo. His aortic valve is leaking. He won't make it through the surgery unless we replace it. It's just a valve replacement George, he's going to be fine. GEORGE: Burke will do it (at her look) Burke will do it and you will clear his schedule. If someone is going to operate on my dad's heart, I want it to be Burke. CHRISTINA: Yeah. GEORGE: Okay. It's going to be fine. It's a valve replacement, it's Preston Burke. If someone's going to cut your dad's heart open, you want it to be him. What? (She walks off.) GEORGE: What's wrong with Burke's hand? CHRISTINA: Nothing. GEORGE: He's going to operate on my father. CHRISTINA: George, Burke is fine. Your dad will be fine. GEORGE: You're lying. Burke is hiding something and you're helping him. CHRISTINA: Leave me alone. (She turns, and Bailey heard the conversation.) ---------- MEREDITH: You wanted to see me chief? CHIEF: It's about your mother. Um... I know your relationship with her is complicated, and I know that you know that she and I... MEREDITH: Chief, it's okay. What really matters is that you make her happy. And my father couldn't. And I couldn't. CHIEF: Meredith I... I can't see your mother any more. I need to try to make my marriage work. And if I'm going to do that, I have to stop seeing your mother. MEREDITH: I see. CHIEF: She's an extraordinary woman. She worked so hard, she sacrificed so much and to see it end like this... Take good care of her for me. ---------- ALEX: (to nurse) We've got it from here. Okay Frank, time to take the tube out. Izzie, put on some gloves. IZZIE: Alex what are you doing? FRANK: What's going on? ALEX: You ready to take out Frank's boob tube? IZZIE: What about the rules? What if Sloan finds out? ALEX: Screw Sloan. FRANK: She does know what she's doing right? ALEX: I promise you Frank, the twins are in excellent hands. FRANK: Ah Grand Gesture. Frank gets it. IZZIE: What's he talking about? ALEX: Nothing. IZZIE: Are you sure about this? FRANK: Oh yeah. He's sure. (Izzie takes out the tube by herself.) DEREK: Looks like we can safely evacuate the clot. Want to cook the pumper? (In the gallery, watching.) BAILEY: Did you ever think about having kids? ADDISON: Derek and I talked about it but I wasn't ready. CALLIE: I love kids. I'd have a dozen. BAILEY: Believe me, one's enough. Unless you plan to put away the scalpel. CALLIE: That's why God invented nannies. BAILEY: I wish it were that easy. ADDISON: What do I do with these? Hock them? Keep them? CALLIE: My mom says divorce wedding rings are bad juju. ADDISON: Your mom says juju? CALLIE: She does. ADDISON: Well, what would your mom do? CALLIE: Burn 'em. Bury 'em. ADDISON: Do you want them? CALLIE: Oh I want some rings, just not bad juju rings. Then again, my mom's kind of insane. BAILEY: Hey, don't talk smack about your mom. ADDISON: Miranda. BAILEY: Yesterday I left for work early, and Tuck's favorite food was strained peas. Nasty green gn, but he loved them. Ate them for breakfast. I got home from a 15 hour shift and he didn't like strained peas anymore. He only wants carrots. ADDISON: Life moves so fast. Everybody moves on. BAILEY: Yep. (Callie gets up and leaves.) ADDISON: Where are you going? CALLIE: I'm not ready to move on. ---------- GEORGE: (to Christina) Do you know why I picked you to by my dad's intern? Because you're a robot. You're a freakin' robot in a white coat who never makes a mistake. And most days I appreciate that, most of the time, I really feel like I have something to learn from you. But right now I need you to try to be a human. ---------- IZZIE: Thank you Alex. I can't believe you let me help. Alex is cool, you know that? Alex is the coolest. ALEX: Oh Alex knows it. Izzie isn't so bad herself. IZZIE: Izzie is back in the game. (Alex turns around and pulls her into a kiss.) IZZIE: I can't. Alex, I can't. I'm sorry. ---------- MEREDITH: Can you say something for me? I need to hear how great you talk. Can you say my name? Can you say Meredith? MIA: Where's Anna? MEREDITH: That was great. Guess who's here? Mom and Dad? MRS. HANSON: Hey... how's my baby girl? MIA: I want Anna. Anna... (She gets up and leaves.) MR. HANSON: Diane, wait... ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: So we'll do the thing with the heart tomorrow. GEORGE: Maybe tomorrow. Maybe in a couple days. I don't know quite yet. MR. O'MALLEY: But Dr. Burke and Dr. Webber said we should get to it quick. GEORGE: We will. We'll ge to it as quick as we can. I just want to make sure we do it right. JERRY: I just don't understand why they're operating on his heart when the cancer is in his gut. GEORGE: Yeah, it's complicated... RONNY: You know what I was thinking? Maybe the tests are wrong. Maybe it's not cancer. Cause cancer runs in families, and no one else in the family has cancer. GEORGE: It is cancer, okay? It's stage 3 metastatic oesophageal cancer. JERRY: Meta what? GEORGE: Metastatic. It's when the cancer cells have migrated from their point of origin... JERRY: Okay you're talking doctor now George. Talk English. GEORGE: I'm talking English, you're just not listening. RONNY: You're just not saying anything that we understand! MR. O'MALLEY: Boys. CALLIE: Imagine your dad's like... like a vintage car okay. GEORGE: Callie... CALLIE: His blood's like gas flowing through the fuel lines. The cancer is like the gn that builds up in there. JERRY: It fouled up the plugs. CALLIE: Exactly. Once it starts circulating, it can do a lot of damage to the whole engine, the carborator, everything. It's like the engine had already blown a gasket before the other damage started. (Realization hits the brothers.) ---------- (Anna and Mia singing the goodnight song.) MEREDITH: (narrating) When it comes to our blind spots, maybe our brains aren't compensating. Maybe they're protecting us. ---------- ELLIS: I'm glad you came to visit. But you can't stay. I'm expecting someone. MEREDITH: Actually mom, he's not coming. ELLIS: What? MEREDITH: Richard, he's not coming tonight. If fact, it's just going to be me for a while. ELLIS: He's gone back to Adele. MEREDITH: Yes. ELLIS: Of course he has. He's afraid. Afraid to be happy. And I'm all alone. Now I have to raise my daughter alone. How am I going to do that? MEREDITH: Mom... you did the best you could. That's all anybody can do. ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: How am I looking? CHRISTINA: Good. You're ready for surgery. MR. O'MALLEY: That's good I guess. I don't know how I'm going to tell my wife about this. 40 years we've been married. And now... cancer... and a heart condition? She was always telling me how I should eat better, take better care of myself. I guess I should have listened. CHRISTINA: George is the best. MR. O'MALLEY: What? CHRISTINA: He's the best intern. He's a good person, and a good doctor. And whatever happens, I just thougth you should know that you raised a good person. MR. O'MALLEY: Thank you Dr. Yang. ---------- IZZIE: I didn't know you still felt that way about me. ALEX: Me either. IZZIE: I can't. I'm sorry. ALEX: Alex gets it. Alex is sorry he's such an idiot. IZZIE: Can Izzie buy Alex a drink? ALEX: Alex would like that. Izzie can. ---------- Bailey (on the phone): I know what time it is. I don't care if he's sleeping. Wake him up. He can sleep later...wake him up. Now... no put the phone to his ear. Hey, Hey Tuck. It's mommy. Hey...(She sings to him) them that's got shall get. Them that's not shall lose. So the bible says and it still is news. Mama may have, papa may have, but God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own. That's got his own. (Addison is on the ferry. She looks at her rings... and then throws them overboard.) (Bailey still singing.) BAILEY: Oh the strong get more, while the weak ones fade. Empty pockets dont ever make the grade... (Christina and Burke lying in bed.) CHRISTINA: George knows. BAILEY: Mama may have. Papa he may have. But God bless the child that's got his own. (Meredith and Derek taking another bubble bath, this time at opposite ends of the tub, exhausted from work.) MEREDITH: I may not be cut out for bright and shiny. DEREK: I'm not either. We can be dull and lifeless together. MEREDITH: I am glad you're in my bathtub. DEREK: Me too. BAILEY: You can help yourself. But don't take too much. Mama may have. Papa he may have. But God bless the child that's got his own. That's got his own...	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x08 - Staring at the Sun"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x09: From A Whisper to a Scream Original Airdate: 11/23/2006 Written by: Kip Koenig Directed by: Julie Ann Robinson CHRISTINA: (narrating) As doctors, we know everybody's secrets. Their medical histories, sexual histories, confidential information that is as essential to a surgeon as a 10-blade. And every bit as dangerous. We keep secrets. We have to. But not all secrets can be kept. ---------- DEREK: 6 letter word for pinnacle. MEREDITH: Zenith. DEREK: Oh this is good. No sex crossword puzzles, current events. When's the knitting start? MEREDITH: Shut up. Good things come to those who wait. DEREK: I want sex. MEREDITH: There will be no sex. CHRISTINA: Am I interrupting sex? DEREK: No. CHRISTINA: Good. Get out. DEREK: What? You can't ask me to leave. CHRISTINA: Meredith... MEREDITH: Give us a sec. DEREK: When I get back there better be some sex. MEREDITH: Why are you all sweaty and ick? CHRISTINA: I jogged here. MEREDITH: You don't jog. Christina... CHRISTINA: What if Derek robbed a bank? MEREDITH: What? CHRISTINA: Say Derek was robbing a bank...and while he was in there, you were waiting outside, cause it was your job to drive the get away car. MEREDITH: Why would Derek rob a bank? CHRISTINA: Just go with me here. MEREDITH: Okay, Derek's robbing a bank. CHRISTINA: And he gets caught. And no one knows you were involved, cause you were driving the car. MEREDITH: Okay, Derek's in jail, I'm in the mystery car. What's the question? CHRISTINA: Would you turn yourself in? Or would you stay quiet and let Derek go down for a robbery in which you were a complicit participant? Or would you stand by him? MEREDITH: Well... whose idea was it to rob the bank? CHRISTINA: I don't know...his! But you helped. I mean could you live with yourself if you walked away and let the man you love take the fall? MEREDITH: If you tell me, maybe I can help. If you tell me... CHRISTINA: I'll see you at work. MEREDITH: Christina, you don't jog. We don't jog. CHRISTINA: Has George said anything to you? MEREDITH: About what? CHRISTINA: I jog sometimes... without you. ---------- CHRISTINA: How's your dad? GEORGE: His surgery is today. CHRISTINA: You have nothing to worry about. GEORGE: I'm not worried. Not any more. CHRISTINA: What do you mean by that? IZZIE: Hey. So are you and Meredith having one of your "we're best friends, we're so cool" secret time things? Sorry, I'm cranky. Candy striping makes me so cranky. GEORGE: Christina's leaving. DEREK: Ah, so I can have my girlfriend back. (Christina jogs out.) IZZIE: What's wrong with her? (George just walks back into the kitchen as Izzie rolls her eyes at the giggles coming from Meredith and Derek upstairs.) BURKE: Why are you acting like the sky is falling? CHRISTINA: It is falling. It already fell. George knows. BURKE: I was in surgey 14 hours yesterday and no tremor. CHRISTINA: Yeah, with me by your side ready to jump in. BURKE: I haven't had a tremor in a week. CHRISTINA: George knows. This isn't just any surgery. You are operating on his father today. BURKE: I am aware of that. And I am fine. CHRISTINA: He's going to do something. I know him. He's not just going to just stand by and say nothing. BURKE: There's nothing to say. I had a tremor and now I don't. CHRISTINA: We need a strategy. We have to figure out our story and come up with a plan. BURKE: Christina...you're too intense. CHRISTINA: I am too intense? I have been working my ass off making sure nobody knows. Running your board, learning surgial procedures I shouldn't have to know until my fifth year covering you. BURKE: Covering me? And I haven't been covering you? CHRISTINA: Excuse me? BURKE: I'm just saying, we're a team. CHRISTINA: Okay BURKE: A strong team. And I wouldn't be in tha OR if I didn't know I could do it. You're just going to have to trust me on that. Don't let this O'Malley thing break you down CHRISTINA: No, I'm not. BURKE: Christina... (Her pager goes off.) CHRISTINA: I gotta go. (His pager goes off too.) ---------- ALEX: What happened? BAILEY: Driver, lost control of his car. plowed throug the fish market at the warf. I need all hands on deck. IZZIE: All hands? Does that mean "all hands" or just...all hands? BAILEY: Stephens you shouldn't have been paged. You can go and take over on Mr. O'Malley. He's having surgery today with Dr. Burke. CHRISTINA: That's my case. I'm with Burke. BAILEY: You have traumas rolling in. She can take over for you. IZZIE: Thanks... BAILEY: Stephens, you will not scrub in, you will not handle any instruments. You will not move or talk or DO anything other than breathe and watch. IZZIE: Candy striping again, no problem. CHRISTINA: Where is George? Why isn't he here? MEREDITH: I don't know. He switched shifts with me. CHRISTINA: Dr. Bailey I just wanted to say...Dr. Burke requested me on the O'Malley case, so if I have to go...even if Izzie can't scrub in...so if and when my attending asks for me... BAILEY: Well if and when your attending asks for you, then you have to go don't you? (They enter mad chaos of hurt people.) BAILEY: Grey, trauma room 1. Yang, man that stretcher. Karev come with me. ---------- DEREK: All right talk to me CHRISTINA: Larry Shane Dickerson. 68. GCS 8. BP of 100 over palp. Pulse in the 120's. CALLIE: Obvious deformation of the tib/fib. Get x-rays let me know if there's anything surgical. He's got a lot worse problems than a broken leg. WIFE: Honey, let me hear your voice. Oh that car... that car... just about klled him. DEREK: The car ht him? CALLIE: No, he was driving. CHRISTINA: ht his head on the windshield. Chest ht the steering column. Old car. No airbags. DEREK: So he was driving the car that crashed into the fish market? WIFE: He wasn't driving it. That's what I'm telling you. It was driving him. He didn't do all this. It was the car. He couldn't stop it. DEREK: Alright, left puple is sluggish. Mrs. Dickerson, Dr. Yang is going to take your husband over to radiology. BAILEY: Mrs. Dickerson I have two police officers waiting to take you statement about the accident. MRS. DICKERSON: It was the car. He went to drop me of, just like he always does. He's a good driver. Please I want to be with my husband. BAILEY: Yes, Mrs. Dickerson, but just give the statement. MRS. DICKERSON: Not now! Please. BAILEY: Okay um...right. I'll ask them to come back later. Let's go. NURSE: He's crashing. NURSE 2: I need suction here. MEREDITH: Should we shock him again? BURKE: Shocking him isn't going to help if there's no blood to pump. Damn it. There are clots everywhere. If I could just get better visualization. ADDISON: So you were in the fish market when this happened? Okay I need you to get her (She notices a woman covered in blood standing in front of some automatically opening doors.) ADDISON: Ma'am? Ma'am? BURKE: Call it Grey. MEREDITH: Time of death 7:53 AM. (Addison walks toward the woman, who is now slowly walking into the room.) Dr. HAHN: Preston Burke. Back from the dad. Can't say the same for your patient. (Addison running over to the woman.) ADDISON: I need a stretcher over here! Woman: I think I might be parked in a red zone (She collapses into Addison's arms.) ADDISON: I need a stretcher please! ---------- ALEX: Awesome cuts. JANELLE: I flew through a window. I flew. ADDISON: Karev. MARK: Stop man-handling my interns. That's my job. ADDISON: Can you tell me your name? JANELLE: Janelle Duko. ADDISON: Janelle what do you do for a living? JANELLE: I sell vegetables at the fish market. MRS. DICKERSON: Janelle, honey, can I get you anything? Some food maybe? JANELLE: Mrs. Dickerson is that you? ADDISON: Mrs. Dickerson, you can't be here right now. MRS. DICKERSON: Larry's a good driver. The car went crazy. Janelle if you need anything, I'll be right over here. JANELLE: She's my best customer. ADDISON: She collapsed in my arms, I just want to make sure she's okay. You got it from here? MARK: They don't call me doctor for nothing. JANELLE: Mr. Dickerson is such a nise man. I hope he didn't kll my baby. MARK: Addison! She's pregnant. ADDISON: I need an ultrasound. How far along are you? JANELLE: 10 weeks. OW! ALEX: Sorry. MARK: There's glass in there Karev, try a lighter touch. JANELLE: The doctors...hot men. They're all really hot. They are aren't they? It's not just cause I'm wearing a plate-glass window? ADDISON: Nope. They're man-candy. JANELLE: Good (She starts coughing up blood.) Okay that is nasty. ADDISON: Her SAT's are in the 80's. I've got to get her oxygen. And I'm going to need a portable chest STAT! MARK: I love you bossing. Boss more. ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: Hey Izzie. Honey, this is Izzie. MRS. O'MALLEY: Oh yeah. One of the girls who lives with Georgie. In some kind of set up there. MR. O'MALLEY: It's not a set up. It's what they do these days. Men and women live together without being Men and Women. It's like a neutral thing. MRS. O'MALLEY: So, nothing sexual? GEORGE: Mom! IZZIE: No, nothing sexal. Where are the other O'Malley men today? MR. O'MALLEY: I told them to get back to work. They were climbing the walls in here. IZZIE: Well I'm here to prep you for surgery. As you know, Dr. Burke is your surgeon. MRS. O'MALLEY: That's right Dr. Burke. Georgie's always saying Dr. Burke this, Dr. Burke that. IZZIE: He's one of the best cardiothoracic guys in the world. GEORGE: (disbelieving) Yeah... (his pager goes off) I have to go. I'll be right back. IZZIE: You're not even working today, why are you getting paged? GEORGE: I'll be back. MRS. O'MALLEY: You're pretty. There's nothing sexual between you and Georgie? Even a little bit MR. O'MALLEY: Loise! MRS. O'MALLEY: What? I just want Georgie to be happy. IZZIE: Okay..let's just prep you for surgey. ---------- BURKE: Anything you would have done differently, Dr. Hahn? HAHN: Given the size of the wound, I would have given up sooner. So how have you been Preston? The last time I saw you, you stole my patient's heart, and then got sht. Karma rocks. BURKE: What brings you out from Seattle Pres. to Seattle Grace? HAHN: A Consult. And knowing how much my being here would annoy you... BURKE: Oh, on the contrary, it's always a pleasure. Though not as much as when you leave. MEREDITH: Hey, do you think I could get in on Dr. Hahn's surgery? I hear she's amazing. CHRISTINA: Who? MEREDITH: Dr. Hahn. She's doing a consult. I wonDerek who the VIP patient is... (We see George talking to Dr. Hahn.) CHRISTINA: You know what, get him to CT. (Hands films to a nurse.) MEREDITH: What... ---------- CHIEF: Dr. Hahn, I was pleasantly surprised to hear you'd be joining us today. HAHN: Well I'm always ready to lend a hand, Dr. Webber. CALLIE: George, how's your dad? GEORGE: Here's his chart, He's in 3975 down the hall, third door on the right. I'll be there in a minute. CHIEF: I'll escort you. And you can tell me what it'll take me to steal you away from Seattle Pres. We could use an extra hand around here. GEORGE: Callie. We broke up. You broke up with me unless you don't remember. CALLIE: I'm just asking about your dad. GEORGE: Why? Why do you care? CALLIE: Because I care about you. GEORGE: Right. I guess that's why you slept with Mark Sloan. Makes sense. ---------- ADDISON: Did Dr. Bailey see the chest x-ray? MEREDITH: No, but with the low pulse ox. and decreased breath sounds, she suspects Janelle will need a chest tube. ALEX: I'm dabbing out freaking glass splinters, and she gets to do a chest tube? MARK: You signed on for this. JANELLE: This is not a good day for me. This is not a good day for me at all. ADDISON: The baby looks good, Janelle. Heart bat is strong. Do you want to call the father? JANELLE: You could, but that would require me speaking to him, which I no longer do. Hearing he's a daddy from some random doctor might not go over so well. ADDISON: So the father doesn't know? JANELLE: No, and he's never going to. CALLIE: Grey, can I speak with you? MEREDITH: I'm setting up a chest tube. Callie; I need to talk to you when you're done. MEREDITH: I'll find you. ALEX: You know I can suture. I've done it before. MARK: When you've can do a z-plasty and barely see the scar, give me a call. Until then, dab and clean, dab and clean. ADDISON: Welcome to plastics, Karev. Is it everything you've ever dreamed of? BAILEY: We're not doing a chest tube Grey. ADDISON: What's going on? BAILEY: Ms. Duko. You have a shard of glass going into your heart. ---------- MEREDITH: Hey. Have you see Dr. Torres? DEREK: No. Quite a morning isn't it? 14 injured, 2 dad, MEREDITH: I know. There's a lot of blood...You know, there's a girl who literally has a shard of glass in her chest. DEREK: Come here. Larry Dickerson, guy who crashed the car into the fish market. He has a subdural hematoma, along with air in his mediastinum. Now look at this. Look at his spine right here. MEREDITH: Spinal Stenosis. DEREK: Yep. MEREDITH: Narrowing of the spine, most often a result of aging. Causes numbness in the legs and feet. DEREK: Only his case is so far advanced, I doubt he could have even felt his feet. Which means... MEREDITH: He shouldn't have been driving. BURKE: You paged me? DEREK: Patient has air in the mediastinum. Wanted you to take a look. BURKE: This guy shouldn't have been driving. DEREK: I know. BURKE: Looks like he has a tracheal injury. You going into the OR for the subdural? DEREK: Yeah, as soon as one becomes available. What's wrong with Christina? BURKE: What do you mean? DEREK: First she kicks me out of bed at 5 this morning so she could have girl talk with Meredith and now I can't find her. She's supposed to be my intern. I had to get my own CT. What's going on? MEREDITH: Nothing. Christina's fine. She's just working really hard. BURKE: I'm sure I don't have any idea. MEREDITH: Don't mention Christina to Burke, okay? It's just not a good idea? DEREK: Oh yeah? What did you two talk about in bed this morning? MEREDITH: Bank robberies. Which isn't really the point. It's just that, she was jogging and...just cut her some slack today. Not that I should interfere... DEREK: But you're going to anyway. MEREDITH: I'm just going to ask once. Very nicely...Please? Please...please? DEREK: You know what says thank you like nothing else? (whipers) Sex. MEREDITH: I'm leaving now. ---------- (Dr. Hahn is talking to Mr. O'Malley. Christina listens in. Meredith walks over to Christina.) MEREDITH: Hey, Derek's looking for you He says you left a patient in CT. CHRISTINA: Shhhhh. MEREDITH: What's going on? (Chief looks out to see Christina prying and she runs off.) CHIEF: Dr. Yang? CHRISTINA: Yes sir? CHIEF: When you see Dr. Burke, tell him I need to speak with him. CHRISTINA: Of course sir. Is that Dr. Hahn from Pres. talking to George's dad? CHIEF: Mr. O'Malley has elected to have Dr. Hahn perform his valve replacement. CHRISTINA: But what about Dr. Burke? CHIEF: Dr. Burke's been replaced. ---------- BURKE: Dr. Hahn's going to perform the surgery. That's a good thing if it means you stop obsessing. CHRISTINA: George didn't just replace you, he told the Chief. The Chief knows. And for all we know, Erica Hahn is being considered for the next head of Cardio. And if the Chief asked me to tell you he has something important to talk to you about. BURKE: Oh. Okay. CHRISTINA: So we need to align our stories. BURKE: This is why I feel like I'm covering for you. I don't line up stories, that's not me. CHRISTINA: Oh, and you think that's me? That's not fair. BURKE: Well the deal is done. If the Chief wants to talk to me, then I will talk to him. I'm not telling him a story Christina. I'm going to tell him the truth. CHRISTINA: Burke. Burke! MR. O'MALLEY: Still getting a heartbeat there? IZZIE: Happy to say. And it'll get stronger once you have the surgery. Do you guys mind me asking why you switched from Dr. Burke to Dr. Hahn? MR. O'MALLEY: We didn't George did. IZZIE: Did he say why? MR. O'MALLEY: Not really, no. MRS. O'MALLEY: Did Georgie and Dr. Burke maybe have a falling out? IZZIE: I don't think so. MRS. O'MALLEY: Then is there something going on with George and Dr. Hahn? MR. O'MALLEY: Oh here we go again.. IZZIE: There's definately nothing doing on with George And Dr. Hahn. MR. O'MALLEY: I already told her, Dr. Torres is the one who loves George. MRS. O'MALLEY: Then why did she break up with him? Why did she break up with him? Just between us? IZZIE: Well how much did George tell you? MRS. O'MALLEY: Everything, I'm his mother. IZZIE: Well then you know Callie's a little bit out there. I mean, I've seen more of her body than I have my own. It's just a little too much information for me. Nobody needs to be naked that often. (At their looks) He didn't tell you that? Um I don't know why they broke up. I mean he really seemed to like her. And I think he kind of needed her. I mean you remember the whole George and Meredith thing... MR. O'MALLEY: Wait...George and Meredith? MRS. O'MALLEY: I knew it. IZZIE: George didn't tell you that either. MRS. O'MALLEY: Dr. Grey, Dr. Torres, and now this Dr. Hahn. MR. O'MALLEY: O'Malley men are studs! MRS. O'MALLEY: He isn't a stud, he's just very handsome. IZZIE: People, focus. George is not dating Erica Hahn. MRS. O'MALLEY: Then why would he want her to perform his father's surgery instead of Dr. Burke? Is she better than Dr. Burke? IZZIE: She's good. Really good. But nobody's better than Burke. MR. O'MALLEY: Then why can't I have Dr. Burke? IZZIE: I don't know. MRS. O'MALLEY: Do me a favor... could you find out? ---------- IZZIE: Hey, have you seen George? MEREDITH: No. IZZIE: He is acting so weird. MEREDITH: So is Christina. IZZIE: What is wrong with everyone today? (Callie storms in.) MEREDITH: Hey Callie, I was going to come and find you. What did you want to talk to me about? CALLIE: Panties? IZZIE: Uh Callie whatcha you up to? (Callie rolls up her sleeves.) CALLIE: I'm kicking Meredith's ass. (She shoves Meredith up against a locker.) Callie; I kept your secrets, I was discreet. I was a really good friend to you when I didn't have to be. And now you go and do this? MEREDITH: Do what? IZZIE: Callie use your words! CALLIE: Panties Meredith. I'm talking about the McFreaking code of silence and the pair of panties I pulled off the bulletin board. Not to mention the adulterous McSex I witnessed. (Izzie pulls Callie off her and gets in between them.) Remember that? IZZIE: I'm sorry, but she's very little and you're hurting her! CALLIE: You told George. My night with McSteamy was not yours to share! IZZIE: That's what this is about, your sex with McSteamy? CALLIE: You told Izzie? MEREDITH: Callie! You told me you slept with someone. You never said it was Sloan. George told me it was Sloan. CALLIE: George? George told you? Who told George? IZZIE: Maybe perhaps the guy you slept with? CALLIE: George thinks I betrayed him. I didn't. We were broken up. MEREDITH: Well go tell George IZZIE: Dude she went all cagefighter on you. MEREDITH: I know. ---------- GEORGE: How's my dad doing? IZZIE: George- your ex is hardcore. Passionate but hardcore. GEORGE: Yeah I don't...how's he doing? IZZIE: He's fine George. GEORGE: And my mom? Is she driving you crazy? Has she offered to iron your scrubs? She does that you know...she offers to iron things. Wierd things. IZZIE: They're fine. They're just... GEORGE: What? IZZIE: Confused. A strange doctor is operating on you dad's heart, and they both want to know why, and I have nothing to tell them, so... GEORGE: Christina...tell Izzie why Dr. Hahn is doing my dad's surgery instead of Dr. Burke. Go on. CHRISTINA: Dr. Hahn is an excellent surgeon. Your father is great hands. Nothing else matters. GEORGE: You're wrong. There's alot of people with fathers in this hospital, and it does matter tot hem who their doctor is.(She walks away.) IZZIE: George I... I know this is scary, but Burke... I didn't come back until I was ready. Preston Burke is ready. GEORGE: Look I can't talk to you about this. This is none of your business. So just please just stay out of this. IZZIE: What do I do about your parents? GEORGE: You don't do anything about my parents. Your job is to watch remember? Sorry... ---------- MARK: You might want to consiDerek leaving that alone until she goes into the OR. JANELLE: Yeah, about that, when's that going to happen? There's a large shard of glass in my heart you know. ALEX: You'd be surprised how long people can live with stuff inside their bodies. Shrapnel, bllts. MARK: I saw a guy once with half a chair leg in his chest. That was one hell of a splinter. JANELLE: Can we focus here? ADDISON: Janelle, it looks like we'll have the OR in a few hours. JANELLE: So if I get ht by a car, get thrown through a window, have a big shard of glass in my heart, and my baby survives, that's pretty much a sign I should have this baby right? Even without a father? ADDISON: Everyone has a father. MARK: Not if she doesn't tell him. JANELLE: You think I should tell him. Everyone says I'm wrong. He's scum and now I'm the bad guy cause I don't want him in my kid's life. Isn't that what you''re thinking? ADDISON: Janelle... ALEX: My thing is what about the kid? What happens when he's 6 or 7 and he wants to meet his dad? MARK: Karev, this is none of your business okay? ALEX: She asked, okay? JANELLE: He cheated on me. ALEX: Makes him an ass, doesn't mean you have to be one. Mrs. Duko? (She's breathing hard and monitors go off.) MARK: BP's 80/60. ADDISON: I'm getting muffled heart sounds. She's officially unstable. The OR can't wait. Alex, find Dr. Burke, and Bolus a litre of saline. I need a unit of blood. We've got to get her ready for transport people. ---------- MRS. DICKERSON: I'm sorry spinal what? DEREK: Stenosis. MRS. DICKERSON: And he got this from the accident? DEREK: I think it may have caused the accident. Spinal Stenosis is common in olDerek people MRS. DICKERSON: No. Larry didn't have anything wrong with him before the accident. BAILEY: So there were no symptoms that either of you noticed? MRS. DICKERSON: No, Larry was fine. We're old, but we're both in good health. Larry was fine. DEREK: We're going to need to operate on your husband. He has a subdural hematoma, which is bleeding in the brain. And we need to bring in a cardiothoracic surgeon to repair the hole in his trachea, which is his windpipe. MRS. DICKERSON: So that means that you need to operate on his chest and his head. DEREK: Yes. MRS. DICKERSON: We just wanted to go to the market. ---------- (Christina waits for Burke to get out of his talk with the Chief. They shake hands and Burke leaves to talks to Christina.) CHRISTINA: It'll be okay. BURKE: Christina... CHRISTINA: Whatever happens. He cannot punish you. Every surgery we have done has been textbook. We haven't lost a single patient. We were flawless. BURKE: Christina� You were right the Chief does want Dr. Hahn to replace me as head of cardio. Richard's planning to retire. And he's recommending to the board that they name me, next chief of surgery. ---------- CHRISTINA: This is good. This means George didn't say anything. BURKE: I'm going to be chief. CHRISTINA: And you didn't tell him anything about your tremor, right? BURKE: I'm going to be chief of surgery at Seattle Grace hospital. CHRISTINA: Why do you sound like that? BURKE: Because I'm going to be chief of surgery at Seattle Grace hospital! CHRISTINA: This is what you worked for. This is what you wanted. I can work harder...i can learn more procedures, whatever you need. BURKE: What? CHRISTINA: Now, nobody knows. I mean, the fact that George hasn't told chief doesn't mean that he wont. But we can deal with that. I'll talk to him-or you talk to him. And once you're chief, it won't matter, cause you'll be chief. This is good. Nobody will ever know. BURKE: I'll know. I can't be chief not now, not like this. Do you know how long I've wanted this? My entire career. And when I finally get it, there's blood on it. I had a tremor and I didn't say anything. It's unimaginable. It's unethical. I crossed the line. CHRISTINA: We crossed the line. Together. I crossed the line with you. BURKE: You dragged me across the line. You made us a team, you told Shepherd I was fine. You said "nobody has to know." I was out there on my own. You made us a team CHRISTINA: I did what you needed me to do. You were standing there looking at me telling me your whole life was your hands, if you couldn't operate, if you couldn't be Preston Burke. BURKE: That was your concern, not mine. CHRISTINA: No you put that on me. When you got sht, I walked away. And you just can't let go of that can you? Well I'm sticking now. I'm sticking. Do you know how scared I am every time we go into surgery? But I do it. BURKE: Do you know how scare I am every time we go into surgery? I don't just have to worry about my career now, I have to put yours on my back too. CHRISTINA: We are a team. BURKE: There is no team. There is only me, once again, making up for your emotional short comings. CHRISTINA: We shouldn't say any more. BURKE: No... we shouldn't. ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: Oh look who's here! MRS. O'MALLEY: Oh look how wrinkled he is. Thank god I brought the travel iron. GEORGE: Mom what's going on? They paged me to your room, are you okay? MR. O'MALLEY: Fine. It's just that... GEORGE: What? MRS. O'MALLEY: Want me to? MR. O'MALLEY: No I'll do it. Here's the thing. We appreciate everything you've done for us. MRS. O'MALLEY: All the strings you pulled with Dr. Burke, and Dr. Hahn... MR. O'MALLEY: The last thing we want to do is cause trouble, 'cause we hear you've been under a lot of stress lately. MRS. O'MALLEY: First with you and Meredith and then with you and Callie. GEORGE: Izzie! IZZIE: I thought they knew. MR. O'MALLEY: We hope you won't be mad, but we rescheduled the surgery for tomorrow because... MRS. O'MALLEY: We're sticking with Dr. Burke. GEORGE: What did you say to them? MR. O'MALLEY: We asked her- GEORGE: I asked you to stay out of this. IZZIE: I just told them that Doc- GEORGE: Get out! IZZIE: What? MR. O'MALLEY: George...you don't talk like that to anyone. GEORGE: Dad! Did Dr. Stephens tell you that she's on probation because the last time she was allowed to interact with a patient, someone died? IZZIE: It was really nice to see both of you. ---------- DEREK: You know the guy that caused the accident? The OR just cleared, you going to be able to scrub in with me? BURKE: Shepherd. DEREK: Burke What's going on? ALEX: Dr. Burke, we've got a pregnant woman in the pit with a traumatic cardiac tamponade. Piece of glass piercing her heart. Addison asked for you. DEREK: Well you can't do both surgeries at the same time. BURKE: No I can't. ALEX: Well she's bleeding like crazy. What do you want to do? DEREK: My guy can't wait much longer. BURKE: Dr. Hahn is here. Invite her to scrub in with you Dr. Shepherd. I'll take the lady with the glass in her heart. DEREK: Okay. BURKE: And Karev? Make sure Dr. Yang scrubs in with me. ALEX: Everybody gets a surgery except me. ---------- CALLIE: We were broken up as in not together. GEORGE: I can't do this now. CALLIE: I slept with mark to get over you, and guess what? It didn't work. It was a mistake. I did not betray you George, I would never do that. GEORGE: I can't to this right now. ---------- MRS. DICKERSON: Where are you taking her? BAILEY: She's having an operation. MRS. DICKERSON: Oh no. What's wrong with her? BAILEY: She has some bleeding in her chest. We need to operate. MRS. DICKERSON: I'm sorry Janelle. I'm so so sorry. JANELLE: It's okay Mrs. D. I'm going to be alright. BAILEY: Mrs. Dickerson, you should go back to your husbands room and wait there. MRS. DICKERSON: He's having surgery too. Everyone's having surgery. BAILEY: Go on up, the surgical team is waiting. Ma'am. Mrs, Dickerson: What did I do? How could I have done this BAILEY: Done what? Done what? MRS. DICKERSON: I knew my husband had trouble with his feet. My daughter came to town, she took away his keys. She took away his keys! BAILEY: You gave them back to him. MRS. DICKERSON: If I'd sided with my daughter, Larry would have felt so betrayed. He loves to drive. He didn't mean to hurt anyone. I didn't mean to hurt anyone. BAILEY: I'm so sorry. Listen come with me. MRS. DICKERSON: Why? BAILEY: I know that you didn't mean to hurt anyone. but we need to tell the police. Just trust me. ---------- BURKE: It entered the right ventricle and went right through the septum. I'm going to need to place a pericardial patch. CHRISTINA: Shall I do a running whip stitch? BURKE: No, I've got it. CHRISTINA: I can do a McGoon. I've been practicing. BURKE: Dr. Yang, move to the other side of the table. CHRISTINA: Dr. Burke I apologize. I didn't mean to... BURKE: Move to the other side of the table. Thank you. ---------- HAHN: Can I get some more lap pads? DEREK: How's it going down there Dr. Hahn? HAHN: Just groovy. They're all going to be so jealous back at Seattle Pres. DEREK: Why is that? HAHN: Scrubbing in with Derek Shepherd? The genious who saved Preston Burke when he almost got his arm sht off. Major Jealousy. DEREK: Did you hear that? I'm a genious. MEREDITH: Of course you are. HAHN: Damn it. I'm seeing a partial tear in his aorta. I'm going to have to enlarge the incision to get tot he aorta. Turn him on his back and redress. DEREK: His pressure's bottomed out. Can you get control down there? HAHN: I know, I know he's crashing, and this laceration's getting bigger by the second. DEREK: You need help? HAHN: I need four hands and I need everyone in here to help me turn him. DEREK: Page Thompson. MEREDITH: He's out. HAHN: Is Burke available? MEREDITH: He's in OR 3. DEREK: Run in there and see if they can spare him. HAHN: I need everyone to help me turn him. ---------- BURKE: That's it. Start rewarming. Pledgelet 5-0 prolene. It's going to take about 10 minutes before the body warms up. Then we'll take her off bypass. CHRISTINA: Nice work Dr. Burke. BURKE: Thank you. MEREDITH: Dr. Burke? Dr. Hahn was repairing the trachea and found an aortic transection. We really need your help. CHRISTINA: What are you doing? BURKE: the heart can't come out of bypass for a while yet. I'll be back. CHRISTINA: Shall I come? BURKE: No. Stay here. (She goes after him.) CHRISTINA: Mer. Is it bad? What does she need him to do? MEREDITH: The guy's chest is a mess. She's juggling the trachea and aortic injuries. She just needs another pair of hands. CHRISTINA: He just repaired a hole in her heart. MEREDITH: I'm sure he can handle it.(she rushes down the hall) Christina! BURKE: Hey! Where do you think you're going? Get back in there. MEREDITH: What, do you think Burke can't operate without you. Oh my God, Christina. CHRISTINA: Shut up. MEREDITH: He can't operate without you. CHRISTINA: If you ever gave a crap about me, you will shut your mouth and go back in the OR. ---------- CHRISTINA: There's a bat. It's beating. She's ready to come off bypass right? NURSE: She is. NURSE 2: Doctor Burke wanted me to tell you he's going to be longer than he thought. CHRISTINA: Longer than he thought? What's that mean? She could stroke out if she stays on any longer. What did he say? NURSE 2: You shouldn't worry, he'll be right back. ---------- BURKE: Let's unclamp and see what we've got. (Meredith is concentrating on Burke's work.) DEREK: Brain's not interesting enough for you Dr. Grey? HAHN: I've still got a lot of bleeding. I'll place a partial occluding clamp. BURKE: 4-0 prolene. There. HAHN: Excellent work Dr. Burke. Thanks you. That should hold once you get a few more in there. DEREK: Focus, Dr. Grey, focus (She's still watching Burke as he clears his throat and pulls his hand out and stretches it. Derek turns to watch too.) DEREK: Everything okay Dr. Burke? BURKE: Everything's fine. DEREK: Dr. Grey? (He watched Burke work.) ---------- CHRISTINA: It's been too long, she should come off bypass. NURSE: She should come off soon Dr. Yang. How do you want to proceed? CHRISTINA: I am not having this girl die of a stroke after all this. Page someone. Anyone who can help take her off bypass. (Burke comes back in.) CHRISTINA: What happened in there? BURKE: He's going to live. CHRISTINA: You were gone too long. She could stroke out any second. BURKE: Gather yourself Dr. Yang. Let's take her off bypass. Good. Good rhythm. Temperature is up. Okay let's get those lap pads. NURSE: Coming off bypass. BURKE: Stop protamine. Give her more volume. Arterial line is out. Nice keep going. Come on. There it is. NURSE: Heartbeat still strong. Nice work Dr. Burke. CHRISTINA: Oh so we just check everything and close BURKE: Wait... (The heart tears open and squirts blood all over Christina.) BURKE: She blew a stitch. She could have a tear in her heart. Give me the preledged 4-0 prolene. Put up two fresh units of blood. CHRISTINA: What do I do? Burke? BURKE: I have to repair the heart wall. CHRISTINA: Should I put on a clamp? BURKE: One moment. CHRISTINA: We don't have a moment. BURKE: Hold on. I need to put the cannulas back in so we can empty the heart again. She needs to go back on bypass. Reheparinize and give me the tubes. Her atrium is extremely viable. It can't hold a stitch CHRISTINA: What about a horizontal mattress. I can do it. BURKE: Dr. Yang. I don't need you for this. This is a known complication of the surgery. It happens. It happens. Restart bypass. BAILEY: I was paged, can I help? BURKE: I'm repairing the heart wall. I can use your help for a second attempt at coming off bypass. BAILEY: I'll go scrub in. BURKE: Load more 4-0 prolene and a new pericardial patch. (Christina runs down the hall, covered in blood, and straight into the chief's office.) CHIEF: Come in BURKE: Chief, we need to talk. CHIEF: Yes Dr. Burke, I think we do. (He turns around and there is Christina.) ---------- (Chief is in his office yelling at Burke as Christina stands watching.) Dr. HAHN: You're lucky you know. CHRISTINA: What? HAHN: To study under Burke. If your little intern brain can retain any of what he teaches you, maybe you can become half the surgeon that he is. And that's pretty damn good. If you tell him I told you this... he'll never believe you. ---------- ADDISON: Karev. ALEX: Dr. Montgomery. How's she doing? ADDISON: She made it through the surgery. So did the baby so...well it's like I said, kid's a fighter. ALEX: You think she'll call the guy? The dad? ADDISON: No. It takes more than a well-meaning speech to get a girl to make a commitment like that. I appretiate it though. Your take...it was surprising. ALEX: Surprising... ADDISON: Well for a Mark Sloan protege. ALEX: Lacky. I dabbed blood all day. ADDISON: You're a decent guy Alex. I'd hate to see Sloan bat that out of you. (They gaze into each other's eyes.) ADDISON: Anyway... ALEX: Yeah, thanks. ---------- DEREK:I would've helped you if you'd told me. Burke? BURKE: I cannot. It's been a long day. And I just cannot. DEREK: I thought you were my friend. BURKE: I thought you were my surgeon. CHRISTINA: (narrating) In some ways, betrayal is inevitable. When our bodies betray us, surgery is often the key to recovery. When we betray each other, the path to recovery is less clear. (Chief stands looking at the full OR board. He'll never get to retire at this rate.) CHRISTINA: It was both our idea...to rob the bank. It was both of us. MEREDITH: I know. CHRISTINA: I just couldn't do it any more... MEREDITH: You did the right thing. CHRISTINA: Then how come I walked across the parking lot and realized I can't go home. Where am I supposed to go? ---------- GEORGE: Hey. IZZIE: Hey. So Dr. Hahn? GEORGE: Yeah. He's my dad. And I'm scared and you of all people know what it's like to have someone you love in the hospital. IZZIE: No. You dont get to bring Denny up to me ever again. GEORGE: I'm sorry. IZZIE: Don't try to apologize right now. Not yet GEORGE: Okay IZZIE: Maybe tomorrow. GEORGE: Okay ---------- (Meredith and Derek lying in bed.) DEREK: You watched his hands all through surgery. You knew. MEREDITH: I can't say anything. There are things that Christina told me. She'd my friend. I can't say anything. DEREK: No. That's not how this works. How could you know what you know, or suspect it and not tell me? MEREDITH: You cleared him for surgery Derek. How did you not know? You can't be angry with me. She's my best friend. And right or wrong...she... DEREK: What? MEREDITH: She was there when you weren't. (He turns to face her, they share a moment of understanding and so much for that whole waiting for sex thing.) Christina (narrating) We do whatever it takes to rebuild the trust. And then there are some wounds that are so deep, so profound, that there's no way to repair what was lost. And when that happens, there's nothing left to do but wait. (Christina arrives home to find Burke pacing in their room. She walks up to him, and he shuts the door.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x09 - From a Whisper to a Scream"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x10: Don't Stand So Close to Me Original Airdate: 11/30/2006 Written by: Carolina Paiz Directed by: Seith Mann ELLIS: He's with her. He's with that woman. His wife. MEREDITH: I don't think he is. Not any more. ELLIS: He is. Why would he do that? He loves me. I mean, why would he go back to her? I gave up everything for him. MEREDITH: Mom. Mom, look at me. This happened a very long time ago. This is not happening now. ELLIS: It's because I have a daughter isn't it? He always said he didn't want kids. I should never have had a kid. ---------- BAILEY: What's going to happen to them? CHIEF: What? BAILEY: Dr. Burke, and Dr. Yang... what are you going to do to them? Their punishment? CHIEF: Dr. Bailey... BAILEY: There's a need for justice here. DEREK: Justice? CHIEF: Justice has no definition within the four walls of this hospital, Dr. Bailey. This isn't a court of law. BAILEY: I just want to know what's going to be done. CHIEF: Technically, they've done nothing wrong. Nobody died, there was no malpractice. I haven't made a decision. BAILEY: Excuse me, he- CHIEF: He what? BAILEY: Nothin'. CHIEF: Dr. Yang, go back on the floor with Dr. Bailey. BAILEY: Sir! CHIEF: Am I not understanding this? Does this situation directly harm you in some way? BAILEY: No sir. I am fine. CHIEF: Then get back to work. (Christina and Bailey leave.) CHIEF: Burke, you and Shepherd need to come together on this tremor as soon as possible. DEREK: He doesn't want my help. BURKE: I don't want his help. CHIEF: That hand is worth $2 million. I want it fixed, and I want it fixed yesterday. Figure it out! ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: Listen, your brothers are good boys, but they're not that responsible. GEORGE: It's a standard procedure. MR. O'MALLEY: It's just that if things go wrong... GEORGE: Dad... MR. O'MALLEY: IF things go wrong, my life insurance papers are in the second drawer in my nightstand. And my magazines are in the garage with the truck manuals. GEORGE: Your magazines... MR. O'MALLEY: Get them out of there...so your Ma doesn't see them. GEORGE: Your Magazines!? (Callie clears her throat from the doorway.) CALLIE: Morning, Mr. O'Malley. Just wanted to stop by and see how that collar bone is healing. (George goes to leave.) MR. O'MALLEY: Georgie, you're not going to say hello to Dr. Torres? GEORGE: I'll see you for rounds dad. ---------- DEREK: If you would have told me that you were developing a tremor, I could have run some tests. The likelihood is that there's just some compression of the structures around the injury. I can... BURKE: I don't want another surgery. DEREK: It could be a small clot. I could go in and... BURKE: Shepherd, I don't want another surgery. The first one caused enough damage. DEREK: I can do this. BURKE: That's what you said last time. And now I have a tremor. ---------- IZZIE: Maybe she'll be on "look but don't touch" patrol too. At least I'll have some company. ALEX: Whatever she gets I hope its bad. Really bad. MEREDITH: She made a mistake, we all make... GEORGE: A mistake? She was going to let Burke, Burke with the shaky hand operate on my father. (Christina walks in.) CHRISTINA: Could you stop looking at me like that? It's creepy,and makes you look like you haven't been fed. (Everyone leaves except Meredith and Christina.) MEREDITH: So how's it going? CHRISTINA: How's what going? MEREDITH: You and Burke? Are you okay? CHRISTINA: We're existing in total silence. MEREDITH: He's not speaking to you? CHRISTINA: Well I'm not speaking to him either. MEREDITH: I'm sorry. Are you okay? CHRISTINA: Stop asking okay? MEREDITH: Making an effort here. CHRISTINA: Well don't. BAILEY: Rounds started 30 seconds ago. The chief may be confused about punishment for you but I'm not. You late again, you will find yourself another resident. ---------- ADDISON: Dr. Bailey, can I have Grey? BAILEY: You can have them all. MEREDITH: Something you needed Dr. Montgomery? ADDISON: This is none of my business but I just thought you might want to be warned. MEREDITH: I"m sorry what? ADDISON: Your sister Molly has just been admitted for an emergency c-section. MEREDITH: Molly's not my sister. ADDISON: Okay, but technically she is. You have the same father. And Susan... MEREDITH: Susan Grey is definately not my mother. I appretiate you trying to be nice and everything but I really don't even need to know this. ADDISON: Actually, you do. SUSAN: Hello, Meredith. ---------- GEORGE: Hi mom. MRS. O'MALLEY: Honey...oh. I put out some breakfast in case you kids were hungry. ALEX: Score! BAILEY: Karev. RONNIE: Hey, ready for the big day pops? JERRY: Food! (They lunge for the food.) HAHN: Alright lets make this fast people. I have a day. Which one of the interns is mine? ALEX: It's mine. He's family and she's a candy striper. IZZIE: I'm ready. GEORGE: What if you did pick me. What if you picked me? Ronny and JERRY: OHH Pick me! GEORGE: Guys, this is serious. BAILEY: Yang. ALL: What? BAILEY: Dr. Hahn, Christina is very good with cardio. I'm sure you could use her for the day. What are you waiting for Yang, present the case. CHRISTINA: Harold O�Malley, sixty three, diagnosed with oesophagial cancer and severe aortic regurge. Is scheduled for aortic valve replacement this afternoon. ---------- ALEX: Dude that case was mine and she gives it to yang. I haven't had a cardiac case in ages. GEORGE: It's not a case it's my father. IZZIE: So there's a double standard. Yang does something wrong, and she gets rewarded. That's fair. BAILEY: If you three thumb suckers don't stop whining I swear I will not show you what's behind this door. And trust me. You want to see what's behind this door. PETE: Excuse me doctors, you're going to have to wait a few minutes. JAKE: He's go to pee! Every five minutes he's got to pee! PETE: I have always had a small bladder. Oh I can't live like this any longer JAKE: You? I'm the one who has to put up with your whining! PETE: Like the whining you're doing right now? If you don't move it's going to go all over your leg JAKE: So what else is new? BAILEY: So who thinks Yang got the better case? That's what I thought. ---------- BAILEY: Jake and Pete Weitzman. 35 year old adult pygopagus conjoined twins. Attatched at the lumbar sacral junction. JAKE: But not for long, right Dr. Webber? CHIEF: The Weitzman brothers came in about 6 months ago for a separation procedure. They opted out because of the risk. JAKE: Pete chickened out. PETE: Well forgive me for wanting to live longer, even if it meant living with you. JAKE: Yeah, well you wasted 6 months of our lives thank you very much. ALEX: You guys came back at the right time. We just scored New York's top plastic surgeon. CHIEF: Mark Sloan, plastics. And you remember Dr. Shepherd, your neurosurgeon. MARK: We used to work together, as a team actually. DEREK: We worked together. We were never actually a team. GEORGE: Mr. Weitzman? JAKE: Call me Jake. PETE: Call me Pete. GEORGE: Jake, Pete... do you mind me asking why now when you thought the procedure was too risky 6 months ago? (Elena enters the room.) ELENA: Guys? Woah, that's a lot of doctors. I'm going to come back... JAKE: No Elena, come in. You want to know why now? This is why. The love of my life Elena. ELENA: Jake... I told him not to do this for me, cause that's just crazy. Pete said they could end up paralyzed? They could end up dad? JAKE: Why do you tell her things like that? PETE: I wasn't telling her, I was telling you. She just happens to be the only one who listens to me. DEREK: She happens to be right. JAKE: Do you know what it's like to be stuck to the same person... PETE: Here we go... JAKE: Yes here we go...to be stuck to the same person every minute of every day? To not have anything that's just yours? To never be on your own? Well no one should have to live like that. DEREK: What do you think Pete? PETE: I think why would I want to be attached to someone who doesn't want to be attached to me. ---------- ALEX: I'm calling it. It's mine. GEORGE: I have two brothers. I feel their pain. IZZIE: I would be great at watching this. BAILEY: Quiet, all of you. ALEX: We're all on the case right? BAILEY: Right. ALEX: Yes! BAILEY: Stephens you are to- IZZIE: Look and not speak or touch or breathe. I got it. MARK: So this is the crack team? BAILEY: Feel free to take one. MARK: I think I'll take the one who doesn't speak or touch or breathe. ALEX: Damn it. ---------- IZZIE: Thank you...for picking me. Even just observing... MARK: I thought you might be fun to look at while I work. IZZIE: Will you be working on both the skin graft and the nerve reconstruction? MARK: Yes. And I think I'll handle both better with a little caffeine in my system. Get me a blueberry scone, a bone dry cappuccino, and a little something for yourself. IZZIE: There's a cafeteria on the second floor, and a coffee cart in the lobby. MARK: Feisty. Cappuccino. IZZIE: You can kick me back to Bailey if you want. I don't do coffee. So how will you be handling the skin graft and nerve reconstruction? ---------- CHIEF: Conjoined twins, Derek. DEREK: I know Chief. CHIEF: Conjoined adult twins. I mean it's rare enough to separate infants, but adults? Can you imagine the press? What a surgery like this could do for this hospital. DEREK: I know. That's why I don't think we should do it. Their spines are connected from the L4 down. Their blood flow is intricately connected. They could end up paralyzed or even dad. CHIEF: Your patients want this surgery Derek. Why are you backing out. This isn't like you. Unless there's incontrovertible evidence that this surgery can't be done, then we're moving forward. ---------- SUSAN: Your father's not here. He's at Harvard Med visiting Lexie. We thought we had a lot of time I mean, Molly's only 36 weeks along, and Dr. Montgomery has been trying to stop the contractions but I guess the baby's ready to come. MEREDITH: Well do you need anything else or... ADDISON: Actually I could use an intern for this case. Can you ask Dr. Bailey for someone? MEREDITH: I'll do it. ADDISON: You sure? MEREDITH: I'm fine. SUSAN: It'll be so nice to have a familiar face in the operating room. Thank you... for being here. MEREDITH: It's my job...to be here. Does Molly know who I am? SUSAN: She doesn't. I wanted to tell her but your father... MEREDITH: No..it's better this way, it's good. ADDISON: So I think Molly should be ready in the OR. Susan, you'll need scrubs and a cap. SUSAN: I'm going to be a grandmother. ADDISON: Yes, in about half an hour you will be a grandmother. SUSAN: Okay...here we go. ADDISON: Here we go. MEREDITH: Here we go... ---------- CHRISTINA: We're going to be replacing your valve with a porcine valve. MRS. O'MALLEY: Georgie says it's going to be okay. He says they know what they're doing. Besides if you die, I'll kll you. CHRISTINA: Well it's a good thing we're doing this today, we noticed you had a lot of irregular heart rhythms this morning. GEORGE: Did you check his DIG level? (He steals the chart.) CHRISTINA: What are you doing? GEORGE: His potassium was a borderline low this morning. HAHN: Okay, we've got a handle on things. GEORGE: Oh I'm sure you do. CHRISTINA: George, I think maybe you should step outside. GEORGE: You don't talk to me like that. RONNIE: Uh oh, she's woken up the baby. GEORGE: Ronnie! JERRY: Careful Dr. Hahn, he might cry. GEORGE: I said shut up! HAHN: Alright, you are out of here. GEORGE: No, I'm not. MRS. O'MALLEY: Georgie... GEORGE: No she can't kick me out. I hired her. I'm staying. ---------- ADDISON: How are you doing there Molly? Molly: Okay...just excited to see my girl. ADDISON: Well you're going to get to take a look at her in just a few minutes. Dr. Grey can you give me a little more traction please? NURSE: Vitals are holding steady. Molly: Can you see her yet? SUSAN: No, I'm not looking until all the blood is gone. ADDISON: You want to cut the cord Dr. Grey? NURSE: The warmer is ready when you need it. ADDISON: Dr. Grey can you follow me? Dr. Knox, can you close for me? (They bring the baby over to a cubicle and try to get it to breathe.) ADDISON: Bag Valve Mask. We need to sab this baby and get it into surgery. Molly: What's happening? SUSAN: What's wrong with her? ADDISON: Susan I need you to stay with Molly. SUSAN: What's wrong with her? NURSE: No response to stimulation. ADDISON: You want to talk her through this? (Meredith just stares.) Dr. Grey I need your help here. MEREDITH: The baby is not breathing. Molly: What? What did she say? ---------- ADDISON: You left me hanging in there Grey. MEREDITH: I'm sorry...I'm just...sorry. Do you need me to scrub in on the baby? ADDISON: No I need you to keep Molly and her mother apprised of the baby's condition while I operate. MEREDITH: I'm sure they'd rather talk to you. ADDISON: The baby has Jujenal Atresia. She may die. I got consent but I don't have time for updates. MEREDITH: I think I would really learn a lot from observing this. ADDISON: It was a mistake to let you in the OR with your family in the first place. It's not going to happen again. Check in with me every hour. ---------- BAILEY: How many valve replacement have you preformed in your life Dr. O'Malley? GEORGE: None. BAILEY: None. And how many do you think Dr. Hahn has done? GEORGE: He's my father. BAILEY: And you are in that room as his son. You interns think you can do whatever you want. Well not any more. Not with me. Which is why you are going to stay away. 50 feet away to be precise. You are going to stay 50 feet away from your father at all times today. And Dr. O'Malley, do not make me tell you again. ---------- BURKE: Everything okay with the O'Malley's? HAHN: Kid's a pain in the ass. But Dr. Yang here is proving to be an extremely capable asset. I hear she studied under you. BURKE: Yes. Why she's very...professional. ---------- BURKE: What do you know about Dr. Lavine? CHIEF: Pretty good. BURKE: Better or worse than Dr. Korsikov? CHIEF: Why are you researching Neurosurgeons when you and I know Derek's better than anybody? BURKE: I don't want Shepherd. CHIEF: You blame this on him. You know up until now, I have not yelled. I have not yelled because you were a guy in trouble, and I was supporting you. But now, I'm YELLING. BURKE: Chief... CHIEF: I am yelling very loudly. I want to retire Burke! I want my wife back. I'm passing the torch to you! I passed the torch to you, and you blew it out! BURKE: I know I let you down. CHIEF: Burke, I'm tired. I'm tired of you men acting like boys. You let me down. And if you don't let Derek fix that hand, you're letting yourself down. ---------- IZZIE: 22 surgeons. It takes 22 surgeons to do this. (Derek is working on a model of the twins.) CHIEF: Where are we? DEREK: I'm to the clauda equina. BAILEY: I'll be working on the musculature of the perineal floor. MARK: I'll be harvesting the sural nerve for transfer. DEREK: Once in resect this artery, we're going to have less than two minutes before all sensation to these nerves is gone. MARK: I'm pretty sure we're going to have enough nerve to transfer and cover the defacits. We can do this. (Derek breaks something inside the model.) DEREK: Damn it. It's going to be a lot more fragile in the body. It's one thing if this is a life and death situation where this is all we can do to save them. But these people are fine. This isn't worth the risk. (He throws down his tools and leaves.) ---------- SUSAN: How is our baby? MEREDITH: She has an intestinal obstruction which is why she couldn't breathe. Dr. Montgomery is operating on her now. Molly: I can't do this. I can't do this. SUSAN: Yes you can, baby. I'm right here and dad's on the way. Molly: I have to call Eric. I don't know what to tell him. SUSAN: It's her husband. He's in Iraq. Molly: I can't tell him. He's going to want to name her, and I don't want to name her 'cause I don't know how long she's going to be ours. SUSAN: We'll call him together. He's just going to be happy to hear your voice. The baby's okay, you hear me? ---------- ALEX: I thought you were Sloan's right hand. IZZIE: Yeah well Sloan can kiss my... PETE: Ow! ALEX: I haven't even put the needle in yet. PETE: Sorry, I'm just not a big fan of pain. IZZIE: Well you're about to have a fairly extensive and painful operation. JAKE: You think that this is an elective procedure? That we're just coming in here cause we get on each others nerves? You want to know the real reason? PETE: Come on Jake, she doesn't want... JAKE: It's because we have rules. ALEX: Rules? JAKE: Yeah. Say one of us is on a dinner date. According to the rules, the other is just supposed to sit there quietly, eat his falafel and shut up. PETE: I try. But the way you talk to her sometimes. JAKE: Is none of your business. PETE: How is it none of my business? ELENA: He stands up for me. I think that's kind of nice. JAKE: Okay, you� don't talk to him any more. ELENA: What? Now we can't even be friends? JAKE: We have other rules too. Like for when we're with someone. ALEX: Got it. Sort of. JAKE: No looking. No talking. No touching! PETE: It was an accident! IZZIE: Oh this is going to end badly. ELENA: I told you, I'm completely fine with it. JAKE: How are you okay with him touching you while your naked? ELENA: Cause it was no big deal. It was kind of sweet and...it just wasnt a big deal. JAKE: You liked it. You enjoyed it. ELENA: I"m completely in love with you that's not even...you're a great guy and ...when we make love it's great. It's really great. And I've never had that before. It's just that...when you fall asleep..Pete and i...we just talk. And I really love that too. JAKE: No you have to choose. ELENA: What? JAKE: Him or me. We're going to have this surgery, and you can't have us both. So choose. Him or me. This is the part where you're supposed to say "you Jake, I choose you." ELENA: I'm so sorry Jake. I'm so sorry. PETE: Elena! (Jake turns over and tackles Pete.) ---------- IZZIE: I think it's romantic. Two brothers fighting over the same woman. ALEX: You know what's freaky though? Conjoined twins having sex in front of the other one. How do you do that? MEREDITH: Family is complicated. ALEX: You're still here. You haven't been kicked out of the program yet. MEREDITH: Alex. CHRISTINA: No not yet. I'm still here. ALEX: How'd you do it? I mean did you have some sort of secret signal in surgery so that the nurses wouldn't know? MEREDITH: Alex... ALEX: What? I'm just wondering how to get ahead around here. Me, I fetch coffee for Sloan. Yang she gets surgeries none of us would get. GEORGE: Got a head count on how many patients you two have lied to in the past month? MEREDITH: George... IZZIE: Leave her alone. Her patients lived so she gets to scrub in. MEREDITH: Izzie! CHRISTINA: Meredith... could you stop defending me? ---------- (George walks in on Callie and his father talking. He goes to leave.) CALLIE: No, I'll go. MR. O'MALLEY: Georgie, you should make nice with her. CALLIE: No really Mr. O'Malley it's fine. MR. O'MALLEY: It's not fine. George, you're so angry. GEORGE: No I'm not. MR. O'MALLEY: You're picking fights every chance you get, and that's not like you. GEORGE: Dad, you don't know what's been going on. MR. O'MALLEY: Ok then tell me. Why are you so angry at Dr. Torres? CALLIE: I should go. I have patients to see. GEORGE: You know what I'm gonna go. MR. O'MALLEY: No. Everyone stays. You're angry george. At Callie, at your brothers. At Dr. Hahn, at Dr. Bailey, at Dr. Yang at Dr. Burke. That's a long list of people to be angry at. Especially when the person you're really angry at... is me. GEORGE: Dad? MR. O'MALLEY: I drink and I smoke and I don't exercise. I eat all the wrong things, and now I have cancer. You have to take care of everything. You have to take care of me. GEORGE: I don't mind. MR. O'MALLEY: You do. You're mad at me. And that's okay, cause I'm mad at me too. You think I wanna die and leave my boy in charge? GEORGE: You are not going to die. MRS. O'MALLEY: What's going on? RONNIE: You're not supposed to be in here Georgie. JERRY: Yeah, you're going to get in trouble Georgie. GEORGE: Georgie doesn't work here in this hospital! My name is Dr. O'Malley! (Mr. O'Malley starts having trouble breathing, and his monitors go off.) GEORGE: Dad? Dad? ---------- GEORGE: Dad! Don't fight it! MRS. O'MALLEY: He's having a heart attck. RONNIE: Why don't you pump his chest? JERRY: What about the paddles? Get the paddles! GEORGE: He's not having a heart attck. Dad dad stop. Your heart is going to fast. CALLIE: Recycle his BP. GEORGE: Pull Verapamile. 5 mg. Dad, stop fighting the mask. BURKE: O'Malley what's going on? GEORGE: You should have paged Hahn. CALLIE: I paged anyone from Cardio. GEORGE: He's got A-fib with rapid ventricle response. I ordered verapamile. BURKE: He's in v-tac. The verapamile will cause more problems than it solves. 100 Lidocane. GEORGE: But on his O2 mask. (Burke goes to give the injection. But he gives it to George.) HAHN: Alright what happened? BURKE: He went in to v-tac. O'Malley has given him lidocane. It's already put him back into normal sinus. HAHN: Alright I need everyone out of here. ---------- IZZIE: I got your page. MARK: I need another cappuccino. IZZIE: Did you think I was kidding before? MARK: I am your attending. And if you want in on my surgery, you're going to learn to fetch, and stay... and heel. IZZIE: Fine. MARK: Don't fetch angry. IZZIE: If you think this means I respect you... If you want me to respect you, you have to do something worth respecting. ---------- DEREK: Look at this cable of nerves. I can't do this surgery Miranda. It's... nuh uh. BAILEY: I started to think I shouldn't be operating after the Duquette M&M. All the whispers and talk. I let that in. I started to question myself. I believed it when I was told I was no longer of use in the OR. DEREK: You said you wanted justice. you were talking about... BAILEY: I'm a surgeon. I hold lives in my hand. To make me question that...No that's to put a life at stake every time I hold a scalpel. DEREK: Well I told Burke I would fix his hand. BAILEY: Well you did. He is not paralyzed or disabled in any way. He has a tremor, and if he'd been honest about that... well there's no telling what you could have done to prevent it. You can do this. ---------- MR. O'MALLEY: Hold onto my wedding ring honey. Hospital rules. Georgie, will you be there in the operation? GEORGE: They don't allow family in. But you'll be fine. MR. O'MALLEY: Oh, I'll be fine. CHRISTINA: We'll take good care of you. MRS. O'MALLEY: What am I going to do? What am I going to do if he dies? ---------- (The twins are being wheeled into the Or.) JAKE: I changed my mind. PETE: Oh no you didn't. GEORGE: Dr. Bailey, I'd like to be excused from the twins if that's alright. I'd like to be with my mom. BAILEY: That's the right call O'Malley. Go. JAKE: Promise me something? When you separate us, can you make sure that his ass is bigger than mine? PETE: I can hear you! ---------- MEREDITH: You're still here. I went to NICU I thought you'd be done. ADDISON: I'm having trouble with the anastomosis and I still have to take a look at the distal bowel. MEREDITH: What should I tell Molly? ADDISON: I don't know. Tell her I'm doing the best I can. I don't know. ---------- MARK: Dr. Bailey, I'd like my intern to observe from a better vantage point. BAILEY: Dr. Stephens? MARK: Yes, she is my intern today. And I'd like her nearby not up in the gallery if that's okay with you. BAILEY: No problem CHIEF: Dr. Bailey, Stephens is without privileges. BAILEY: Oh cause she messed up? Yang messed up and she's over in OR two right now. (She goes to the intercom.) ht that for me will you? Stephens, I take it you remember how to scrub in? Come on. DEREK: This vessel's even more fragile than in the biomodel. MARK: Let's do a microvascular bypass graft. I can harvest the saphenous vein while I'm down there. DEREK: I don't know. I don't know if that's a good idea. CHIEF: Gentlemen we need to make a decision, and we need to make it now. Derek, it's your call. Do you or don't you want to proceed? DEREK: Alright, give me a 10-blade. CHIEF: Let's get some suction in here please. Thank you. ---------- (George is in the scrub room watching his father's surgery. Burke walks in.) GEORGE: I'm not supposed to be here. BURKE: Me either. How's it going? GEORGE: They just started. HAHN: The skin incision is done. Let's go. (George can't watch. But Burke narrates.) BURKE: She's through the sternum. There's a bit of bleeding. She stopping it with bone wax. Inserting the retractor. She's opening the pericardial sac. Taking a look at the echo. She's nodding. Looks good. They're looking at your dad's heart now. She's preparing to put in the stay sutures. ---------- DEREK: The saphenous vein in place? MARK: Yeah I'm ready. DEREK: Bailey? BAILEY: I'm good. DEREK: Chief? CHIEF: I'm ready when you are. DEREK: Alright. Moment of truth. Removing the clamps. CHIEF: Dr. Bailey, check the nerve stimulator. BAILEY: SAP's are falling. DEREK: Alright, pump up the blood pressure. We need as much blood through the area as possible. BAILEY: I'm going up to 2 milliamps. Up to 3. CHIEF: I see something. A flicker on the hamstring of twin A. Pump it up. BAILEY: Up to 4. DEREK: I've got a twitch. A twitch in twin B's gastric. CHIEF: It's small but it's there. BAILEY: We have a signal. DEREK: Congratuations ladies and gentlemen, we have 4 functioning legs. (Everyone claps.) CHIEF: Ladies and Gentlemen, on three. One. Two Three. (The two tables holding Pete and Jake are separated. Surgeons move in and begin to work on the now separated twins.) DEREK: It'd be nice if every love triangle could be fixed with a scalpel. MARK: If so you'd have sab me with a 10-blade a long time ago. ---------- SUSAN: How is she? Please tell me good news, cause I have to go in and tell Molly and I don't want to tell her anything bad. MEREDITH: Dr. Montgomery is on her way and she will explain everything. But the baby... SUSAN: Laura. Molly named her Laura. MEREDITH: Laura, will need some recovery time, but she should be just fine. SUSAN: Oh thank you! I was so scared. Oh thank you! (she hugs Meredith.) She's going to be so happy to hear that. Hey this is your niece you know? MEREDITH: I'm sorry. You're very nice. You both seem so nice. But I don't know you. And you are not my family. ---------- HAHN: Closing the aortotomy. What's next? CHRISTINA: Place the needle in the ascending aorta to remove air, and then release the aorta valve clamp. HAHN: You remind me of myself when I was an intern. CHRISTINA: I do? HAHN: Focused. Intense. And cold. And I don't mean that as a bad thing. Cold is good. The dating the friends the family...if you ask me, it's all overrated. Alright tubes are out. CHRISTINA: Oh the ascending aorta is looking dilated. HAHN: There's too much bleeding around the suture line. NURSE: BP 60/42. Brady down. HAHN: Get me another TEE and an echo STAT. Let's move it people this doesn't look good. ---------- HAHN: There's too much bleeding. Alright, lets get him back on bypass.\ CHRISTINA: I can put the aortic cannula into his right atrium. HAHN: By yourself? CHRISTINA: Yes. HAHN: Alright, do it. BURKE: Replace the 2-stage venus cannula. GEORGE: Why is she doing that? Why is Hahn letting her do that? BURKE: It's alright. She's doing a running whip stitch. She's done it before. There you go. HAHN: That's beautiful work Dr. Yang. BURKE: Dr. Hahn's work was impeccable O'Malley. I wouldn't have done anything different myself. It's just...you never tell how the body is going to respond. Every surgery, every body is different. You just...never know. But it's okay now. They're in the home stretch. GEORGE: Thank you Dr. Burke. ---------- BAILEY: It undermines everything for my interns to se Yang go with out punishment. For me to see Burke go without punishment. CHIEF: Take a step back. Try and get some perspective. BAILEY: So there will be no consequences for either of them? CHIEF: What would you have me to? fre both of them? End their careers. They made a terrible judgement call. BAILEY: Which is what happened with Denny Duquette. CHIEF: And they didn't kll anybody. BAILEY: And I did. CHIEF: You didn't k*ll Duquette and I won't have you saying you did. BAILEY: I was responsible for Izzie Stephens. I was responsible for Christina Yang. I...am the common thread here. I� lost them. Christina, Izzie.. CHIEF: Are not the same. Miranda...you raised them like children. And some of them make mistakes. Some of them disappoint them. Some of them...Do you know what kind of strength it must have taken Yang to come to me? To report on an attending? On Her boyfriend? Do you see how much she's grown? You raised them...like children, And some of the turn out exactly like you Dr. Bailey. ---------- ELENA: Finally alone. PETE: Yeah. ELENA: Pete... PETE: It's been a long day. ELENA: Okay. Well you get a good night's sleep. I'll come back in the morning. MEREDITH: (narrating) At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. (The two brothers are brought together to spend the night together.) JAKE: Couldn't stay away? MEREDITH: (narrating) So this thing where we all keep our distance, and pretend not to care about each other...it's usually a load of bull. SUSAN: Did you want to come in? MEREDITH: No I just... she's okay. SUSAN: She's beautiful. We could be your family... if you wanted. You have a mother, I know. I'm not saying... I'm just saying that we could be your family too. (Meredith walks away.) MEREDITH: (narrating) So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to. MEREDITH: I can't take this any more. IZZIE: What? MEREDITH: Let her off the hook. Let Christina off the freakin' hook. CHRISTINA: Meredith.. MEREDITH: Izzie, you cut the LVAD wire. She stuck by you and did the echo. (to Alex) You cheated on Izzie with syph nurse, and she helped you study for your boards. And George when everyone was calling you 007... GEORGE: She was calling me 007. MEREDITH: Just let her off the hook. ALEX: It's okay. IZZIE: Sorry. (They leave.) CHRISTINA: Why can't you mind your own business? What is your problem? MEREDITH: You're my sister. You're my family. You're all I've got CHRISTINA: I'm so tired. MEREDITH: I know me too. MEREDITH: (narrating) and once we've chosen those people we tend to stick close by. CALLIE: I was just...checking on your dad and see how he was doing. GEORGE: Good. He's doing good. He's resting. Okay. CALLIE: Okay. MEREDITH: (narrating) no matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. ---------- MEREDITH: Hey. DEREK: Well hey there. I'm going to go back upstairs with Dr. Burke. He wants me to take a look at his shoulder. Don't wait up for me. MEREDITH: Okay. (Christina goes in elevator to go with them.) MEREDITH: And sure, sometimes close can be too close. ELLIS: I couldn't stay with him. I don't care that he's Meredith's father. I just couldn't take it. Then Richard...and he... (She cries and babbles incoherently. Meredith gets up and hugs her.) Meredith... MEREDITH: Mommy? MEREDITH: But sometimes that invasion of personal space... it can be exactly what you need.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x10 - Don't Stand So Close to Me"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x11: Six Days (Part 1) Original Airdate: 1/11/2007 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Greg Yaitanes (Meredith and Derek are in bed. Derek is just staring at a sleeping Meredith, who is snoring. She wakes up.) Derek: Morning. Meredith: Were you watching me sleep? Derek: Maybe. Meredith: What are you, some kind of weirdo who watches women sleep? Derek: Maybe. (George goes to get the mayo from the fridge and Izzie's check drops to the floor) George: Izzie? Izzie: What? George: I just dropped $8.7 million dollars on the floor. Izzie: And? George: I shouldn't be able to drop $8.7 million dollars on the floor! You need to deposit that check! Izzie: George...your father's surgery is tomorrow. Any chance you're misplacing your anxiety on me and my check? George: No, there is chance. That check ruins my morning every morning. It belongs in the bank. Would you just please...as a favor to me...just put it in the bank? Please? Izzie: Hmm. No. But if you're nice to me for the next 7 minutes I will give you a ride to work. George: You don't deserve $8.7 million dollars. Izzie: Oh, so true. So true. (Seattle scenes) (Bailey and her interns are walking through the hall) Meredith: So, how's Burke doing? Christina: I don't know. George: She doesn't know. Alex: He just had surgery yesterday and you don't know how he's doing? Meredith: They're not speaking. Izzie: I thought they made up. Meredith: They did, sort of. Izzie: But she's still not speaking to him? Christina: He's not speaking to me. Meredith: They're not speaking to each other. Izzie:OK. Christina: Did you ask Derek about Burke's hand? Meredith: I don't want to get in the middle of it. Derek and I are happy. Can we just keep it that way for a while? Izzie: You know, you could always just swallow your pride and ask him yourself. Alex: Her gut's not big enough for that. (They walk into Mr. O'Malley's room where a party is going on with the O'Malley extended family) All: O'Malley! Harold: Quiet down. Louise: Morning everybody. Richard: Good morning. Who's presenting? All: Yeah George! George: Harold O'Malley 63. Status-post aortic valve replacement. Morning chest x-rays showed no atalectasis after aggressive CPT for the last two days. Scheduled for a transhiatal esophagectomy tomorrow at 9. (Everyone looks at him) That's it. (And the crowd cheers) Bailey: For the next few minutes I think it would be best if the extended family wait in the waiting room. Harold: Just a few minutes guys and then you can come back. Bailey: How are you feeling Mr. O'Malley? Louise: He's feeling great. "Better than ever" he says. Which is why we had everyone come out today. We figured that after today he maybe won't be feelingOK for a while. Harold: After the surgery, then do we start chemo and stuff? Richard: That protocol depends on what we find when we open you up Harold. Harold: What do you mean, what you find? Bailey: Um Grey. Meredith: There's only so much they can tell from labs and scans, so they really need to get a look inside to see if the cancer has spread. Louise: And if the cancer has spread, that changes how much chemo he needs? Chief: That changes a lot of things. Harold: Like what? Richard: I'll let the oncologist explain that later today Harold. Dr. Grey will be taking you through a final battery of pre-operative tests before we go. Bailey: So it would be best if the party went home. (Outside Burke's room) Cristina: Dr. Shepherd? So...Dr. Burke's hand...has he had any tremors? Derek: That's confidential. Cristina: I'm one of his doctors. Derek: You're also his girlfriend. Ask him yourself. (He goes into Burke's room) Good morning everyone who's presenting? Alex: Preston Burke. Post-op day one from an I and D of a compressive hematoma to the brachoplexus. He is afebrile and vital signs are sab over night. His incisions are clean with no signs of infection. Last morphine was given at 2 this morning. Cristina: Ask about the hand. Meredith: You ask. Cristina: It's just one question... Bailey: Dr. Yang, something you want to share with the rest of us? Cristina: No ma'am. Sorry. Derek: Look good, Preston. Take it easy on the nurses. (All leave except George) Burke: O'Malley? Your father's surgery today? George: Tomorrow. (A young girl walks out of her bathroom, she's bent over at the waist, her legs at a 90degree angle to her upper body.) Mrs. Douglas: YouOK, honey? Heather: Yeah, can you just help me? Meredith: Scoliosis? Cristina: Looks like a birth defect. Alex: Looks like hell. Heather: What are you all staring at? Really, if you expect me to be the brave and heartwarming differently abled girl, that isn't going to happen. So go ahead and do your thing. Bailey: Stevens. Izzie: Heather Douglas, 17. Past medical history of VADER syndrome. Bailey: Which is? Izzie: Vader syndrome is a genetic condition that affects the vertebra, anus, trachea, esophagus and renal system. Heather: Wow, give this girl a medal. She memorized the whole acronym. Which I assure you is a hell of a lot easier than living with it. Bailey: Stephens. Izzie: Right. Heather is in today for a lithotripsy to remove kidney stones. And a thoractoplasty to alleviate the pressure in her lungs. Callie: Can I ask...I know I'm just here to remove a few ribs but...have you ever tried anything more radical to treat the spinal curvature? Heather: Let's see. If by more radical you mean having a steel rod inserted into my spine, then yeah. We've tried. The rod just bent. Izzie: Removing the kidney stones may seem minor, but it will really improve your quality of life. Heather: Really? So this surgery is going to get me laid? Mrs. Douglas: Heather, stop it. Heather: Mom, I'm sorry, but she's talking about improving my quality of life. And I don't think doctors should make promises they can't keep. (NICU) Meredith: Laura Grey-Thompson. Born four days ago with Jujenal Atresia. Corrected surgically. Post-op course (Thatcher walks in) Thatcher: Oh, I'm sorry. Am I interrupting? Her mom and grandma have the flu. They asked me to get an update. Addison: Oh she's doing very well Mr. Grey. We'll be out of here in just a minute. Bailey: Dr. Grey, you were saying? Thatcher: Excuse me, I'll just come back later. Bailey: Grey? (Meredith is just in her own world. Christina grabs the chart) Christina: Um Laura Grey-Thompson had some dilation of the bowels on x-ray this morning. We need to do a barium enema. (Seattle scenes) (In the hallway, Bailey is handing out assignments) Bailey: Dr. Grey, I'd like you to stick with Mr. O'Malley this week. Yang, pit. Karev, Sloan. Stephens, prep Heather Douglas for surgery. O'Malley, you take the rest of this week off? George: Yes ma'am. Bailey: Might as well take today off too. Spend some time with your family. George: Thank you. Dr. Bailey, as things progress with my family...well sometimes with the families, we sugarcoat things. It would help if you were straight with me as things progress. Bailey:OK. George: Thank you. Izzie: Dr. Bailey. Dr. Bailey. I know that I'm supposed to prep her only, but any chance that I could scrub in on Heather Douglas? I mean, a VADER patient isn't something you see very often. Bailey: No. Izzie: But I'm ready. I'm ready. Bailey: Your psychiatrist has not given you an all clear. Izzie: He's...I've done everything he's asked me to do. Everything...except deposit my inheritance check but... Bailey: Wait...you have not deposited a nearly $9 million check? Izzie: He is being unreasonable. That check has nothing to do with this... Bailey: Unreasonable is that you're losing thousands of dollars of interest every day. That's unreasonable. You clearly are not reasonable yet. I think that's the point your psychiatrist is trying to make. (Blood lab) Meredith: Hey, I need a CBC and Chem 7 on Harold O'Malley. Cristina: And I need these labs ASAP. Lab guy: Everybody needs everything ASAP. Cristina: Oh yes, and all throughout this hospital people are dying while you are here giving me crap about ASAP. Hey are youOKay? Meredith: Why wouldn't I be? Cristina: Your father...freezing up in rounds. God that was mortifying. Meredith: Thank you. Thanks. Cristina: Oh it wasn't mortifying? Meredith: I just wish that the baby would get well and go home and Thatcher would go with her. Is that wrong? Cristina: Wrong would be if you wished the baby wouldn't get well. Meredith:OK. Good. Thanks. Cristina: You know if you wanted to thank me, you could ask Derek if Burke has had any tremors. Meredith: Talk to him. Cristina: No, cause then he wins. Meredith: Wins what? Cristina: Forget it. Meredith: Do you have a father? Cristina: I have a stepfather. He's nice. I see him for Yom Kippur. (Nurse's station) Mark: Karev, how did I tell you I like my charts? I like to round on pre-op before post-op. Do you like wasting my time? Is it fun for you? Alex: No sir. Mark: Then get it right. Addison: Do you like abusing inters? Is it fun for you? Mark: Yes, it is. And in case you've forgotten, you don't get the high horse this week, Addison. Not this week. (Mark walks away) Alex: He's an ass. Addison: Not this week. (Bailey and Callie are walking through the hall) Callie: You know Shepherd well right? Bailey: Lots of hair, too many women. Likes elevators and long walks on the beach. Callie: So what's the best way to get him to do something? Bailey: What kind of something? Callie: A consult that the patient hasn't requested but that the friendly neighborhood ortho thinks is worth pursuing. Bailey: Shepherd thinks he's busier and more important than everyone else. Callie: Standard neurosurgeon breed. Bailey: Exactly. Callie:OK, so... Bailey: So he'll say no, until you stare him down. Callie: Stare him down? Bailey (with her classic evil glare) Stare him down. (Callie laughs and then realizes she's serious. She walks away and Bailey giggles) (Heather Douglas' room) Heather: You're way too hot to be a doctor. Izzie:OK. Heather: I mean aren't people like you supposed to be dumb? I'm just saying, you're not going to be in my surgery are you? Cause, I'm a little too young to die. Izzie: I will not be in on your surgery. Heather: See? I knew it. You're not even a doctor. Izzie: I am a doctor. It's just that when my fianc� dropped dad not too long ago I went a little nuts, so no surgeries for me for a while. Heather: Well so much for my theory that life doesn't suck for pretty people. I'm sorry I was such a bitch to you. Izzie: Well you're in pain. Sometimes I'm a bitch for no reason at all. (Callie walks up to Derek) Callie: Oh Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Yes? Callie: I'm so sorry to bother you, I know you're very, very busy. But there's a girl here. She's 17 with severe scoliosis from VADER sydrome. She's here for thoractoplasty cause her ribs are pressing against her lungs. She's already had two spinal fusions and a segmented spinal intramentation which didn't work. She's bent over at 90 degrees which clearly sucks. Derek: "Clearly sucks" is that your professional assessment? Callie: My professional assessment is that we can help her. Derek: My day is impossible. (He goes to pass her and she moves in his way. She's staring at him with these big goofy eyes and he looks scared) Derek: I'll come by for a consult in the morning. (Derek leaves) Callie: I'm a good starer. (Harold walks to the nurse's station where Richard and Bailey are) Harold: Doctors, could I get a word? Richard: How are you feeling Harold? Harold: Great. I'm fine. It's just that the oncologist, he said that if the cancer was in other organs, he said that you won't proceed with the surgery. Richard: That's right Harold. If the cancer's spread to your other organs it will compromise your ability to recover from surgery. Harold: So if you cut me open and send me home I get what? A couple of weeks to live? Richard: You would have weeks or months, yes. Harold: No, you gotta take the tumor out. Cause, i can survive this. I know i can. O'Malley's we're fighters. Bailey: Mr. O'Malley, it's just...not a good idea. Harold: My wife...we've been married for 40 years. I make her crazy but...40 years. She needs me. My family needs me. I can't let you close me up and then tell them that there's nothing that can be done when I know I can fight it. So I'm asking for your word. I want you to take the tumor out. Richard: Mr. O'Malley, my job is to do the best I can for you medically. Harold: No, closing me up and sending me home to die isn't what's best for me. Not medically, or any other way. Please, take the tumor out. Richard: All right. Harold: All right? (Bailey nods) Thanks. Bailey: This falls under confidentiality? Richard: If you're asking if you can tell his son, the answer is no. (Meredith sleeping and snoring as Derek watches on. She wakes up) Meredith: You're watching me sleep again? Derek: You're cute when you sleep, what can I say? Meredith: Yeah, but don't you sleep? Why are you always up before the alarm? Derek: I'm a light sleeper. It's no big deal. Meredith: So something woke you up. Derek: It's no big deal. It's just that...you snore a little. Meredith: What? I do not! Derek: Yes you do. And I love it. I find it charming that such a big noise can come from such a little person. Meredith: Do you know what's not charming? Derek: What? Meredith: Your morning breath. Derek: I'm sorry. What? Meredith: I'm just saying, seeing as how you're always up before me, you might consider brushing your teeth. Derek:OK, this is me brushing my teeth. Meredith: Thank you. (George and Izzie are in the kitchen) Izzie: Surgery's today? George: Yeah. I'mOK. Izzie: Yeah, I have a really good feeling. George: Yeah? Izzie: I didn't even bake anything for you. George: Thank you. (Izzie sees her check and stops) (Seattle scenes) (Mark enters the hospital soaked) Alex: Bone dry cappuccino. Mark: At least something's dry around here. Does it ever stop raining in this hell hole? Alex: Not really. Mark: Great. Good to know. (He takes a sip of the coffee) What the hell is this Karev? Vanilla? Are you trying to poison me? Or are you just trying to make my day a little bit worse? Addison: Mark... Alex: Coffee cart must have screwed up. Mark: You know if you can't handle coffee, you can't handle plastics. Maybe you ought to head back to the gynie squad where life was all pink and squishy. Addison: Squishy and pink though it may be, I have an amazing surgery today Karev, if you want in. Alex: Yeah. (Olivia enters Burke's room) Olivia: Good morning Dr. Burke. Burke: Yes it is. Beautiful morning. I love watching the rain. Olivia: Feeling good? Not too much pain? Burke: Feeling great. Olivia: And your hand...your right hand? Feelin' good today? Burke: I'm sorry Olivia, it's just...you're going to have to tell Dr. Yang that I'm not ready to give her that information. Olivia: Right.OK then. Sorry. (She leaves and George enters) Cristina: Ask him... George: Uh huh (He closes the door) You know that Cristina's stalking your room? Burke: I do. (George hands him a chart) Your father? George: Yeah. The surgery my dad is having has 50% morbidity rate. Burke: O'Malley, that statistic means that 50% of the people that undergo the surgery survive. If you're going to hang your hat on statistics, then you have to look at both sides. (Heather Douglas' room) Derek: Heather, I've looked through your case history, and I know you've been through a lot of painful and very unsuccessful surgeries. But if you're up for it, I think I can significantly help the spinal curvature. Heather; By "help" what do you mean? Derek: I mean I think I can get you standing up straight. Heather: It's not nice to mock cripple kids. Derek: You see this curved part here (He points to x-ray) I'd remove it. Mrs. Douglas: You want to remove a portion of my daughter's spine? Derek: Mmm-hmm. And I would replace it with a titanium mesh cage, which would fill in the space between the vertebra. Callie: I've seen case studies, there have been quite a few successes. Mrs. Douglas: What about the ones that aren't successful. Callie: They result in paralysis or death. Izzie: Dr. Shepherd is the best there is. Mrs. Douglas: She's 17... Heather: Mom, I know you still think death is the worst thing that can happen to a person. Death is not the worst thing. I'm in. (Izzie enters the CT room where Bailey is) Izzie: They're going to cut out a piece of her spine. Heather Douglas. Drs. Shepherd and Torres, they're going to straighten her spine. Bailey: And? Izzie: And it's a once in a lifetime surgery. Please she's my patient. I've gotten to know her. I would really like to scrub in. Bailey: Did you deposit that check? Izzie: It's my money, I should get to do what I want with it. Bailey: You get a 5% return on a 6-month CD? In the time we been standing here you could have just made $400. Izzie: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: It is not reasonable Stevens. (Harold's room) George: Dad it's your discard. Harold: I'm sorry for running over Bucky. George: What? Harold: Your dog? The yappy dog Bucky? When you were a kid, I ran over him and I told you he ran away. I'm sorry about that. George: You ran over my dog on purpose? Harold: Of course not. He was chasing after the truck as always. He got caught up under the tire. You were so sensitive. You were such a soft kid. I couldn't bear to tell you. George: I wasn't soft. Harold: I mean it good Georgie. You were kind, you loved animals, you were always looking to help people. I couldn't face you and tell you that I klled your dog. I told you a lie. And I'm saying I'm sorry. George:OK. Harold: You're a good kid Georgie. Always been such a good kid. I want to tell you... George: Dad, stop acting like you're dying. You're not dyingOK? Harold: I want to tell you that I think you're crazy if you let that Callie get away. George: Dad, please. Harold: No, she gets you. She gets you in a way that your family never has. And I'm sorry about that. You grew up feeling so different all the time. That's another thing I'm sorry about. George: Dad, stop it. Stop apologizing. Stop saying goodbye. You can't...that's no way to go into surgery. Harold: I'm going to die someday Georgie. We're all going to die. And lying here in this bed, it gives me time to think about all the things I haven't said is all. George:OK. Well, discard. Harold: Anything you want to say to me? George: Dad! Harold: I'm discarding. George: Dog mrder. (They both laugh) (Harold is being wheeled to surgery) Louise: Tell me what I want to hear. Harold: If I die you'll kll me. Louise: He's a quick study. (Thatcher walks up) Thatcher: Meredith, hello. Meredith: Hello. Thatcher: How are you? Meredith: Good. Busy with work. We have a patient. Harold: Hello. Thatcher: Hello. Louise: Hi. Thatcher: Hi. George: Hi. Thatcher: Hi. Alright then (He stammers a lot) It was nice seeing you. Meredith:OK. Louise: That your ex-boyfriend. Meredith: That's my ex-father. (Harold's OR) Richard: See Grey? Good exposure to the esophageal hiatus. Meredith: Yes sir. Bailey: Now we will inspect and palpate the abdominal cavity. Meredith: Those are the mets right? Richard: Throughout the stomach, celiac lymph nodes, the liver. Bailey: It's everywhere. Meredith: So that's it? We're closing him back up? Bailey: No. We will proceed. Meredith: But I thought... Richard: The patient asked us to proceed. Meredith: What does that mean exactly? Richard: This man asked for a chance to fight. That means that he's going to have to fight like hell. Meredith: But he can recover? There's a chance? Bailey: There's a chance. Dr. Grey, the request from the patient... Meredith: Was private. Bailey: Yes. Meredith:OK. (Addison enters Burke's room) Addison: Preston. Burke: Oh, Addison. Addison: How you feeling? Burke: Better. Looking foreword to going home. Addison: Well, I'm sure bet Dr. Yang is looking foreword to having you back there as well. Burke: Maybe, I wouldn't know. Addison: Why wouldn't you know? Is that over? Burke: No it's not over. It's just silent. Addison: Oh I heard something about this. One of the nurses was talking, I just thought it was gossip. Burke: No, it's not. Addison: So you're not talking to her. Why not? Burke: Did you ever play "say uncle?" Addison: Say Uncle? Burke: Someone bends your arm behind your back harder and harder until you say "uncle." Addison: Then what happens? Burke: Then they have all the power. Addison: I see. So you are not saying uncle. Burke: Yes. Addison: And neither is she. Burke: It seems that way. Addison: That's pathetic. Burke: You may be right. Addison: If am right. If you say something wrong then you apologize. Burke: I didn't do anything wrong. Addison: Did she? Burke: She doesn't seem to think so. Addison: That's pathetic. (Seattle scenes) (Callie enters the waiting room) Callie: Hey. George: Hey. Callie: You're all alone. Where's your family? George: Eating. They like to eat. Callie: You're pacing. George: Yeah. It's just, he's been in surgery for a while. Callie: It's good. It means they're being thorough. George: Or it means that there are complications. Callie: Somebody would have told you if there were complications. George: Right. Callie: It'sOK to be scared. George: I'm not scared. Callie: I'm just saying if you are, you can talk to me. George: I'm not scared. Callie: You sure about that? (She stares him down) George:OK, now I'm scared of you. Callie: Damn it. I'm staring you down. George: Staring me down? Callie: Yeah it worked on Shepherd. George: Seriously? Callie: Wait, let me try again. George: No sorry, I'm still scared Callie: Nothin? George: Hold on I'll be right back. (He walks over to Bailey and Meredith who are in the doorway) (Bailey and Meredith lead George and his family to Harold's recovery room) George: You should prepare yourself because this is a much more extensive surgery than the heart valve. There's probably still a tube in his throat helping him breathe. And half of his stomach was cut out and part of his esophagus, so there'll be a big scar. Just be prepared. Louise: Welcome back sweetheart. Ronny: Dad looks like something out of the butcher's shop. Jerry: That's a cool scar. (George doesn't go in. Meredith finds him outside.) Meredith: You need to breathe. George: He's my dad. Meredith: I know. George: He's my dad. Meredith: I know (She leans her head on his shoulder) (Once again, Meredith is snoring. Only this time she wakes up to Derek is not there. She finds him in George's room) Meredith: Oh you have got to be kidding me? Where's George? Derek: He spent the night at the hospital. Meredith: And you slept in his bed? All night? Derek: No just after you fell asleep. Meredith: So you're telling me that my snoring is so bad...how did you deal with it for all those nights before I found out about your wife? (Izzie walks by) Izzie: He usually sleeps on the couch, sets an alarm, gets back in bed before you wake up. Derek: Yeah, I didn't want to hurt your feelings. Meredith: Oh I'm going to do more than hurt your feelings. (She smacks him with a pillow) Derek: What are you doing? (He grabs her and pulls her to the bed) I'm gonna hurt your feelings cause (He breaths on her) (Izzie goes to the kitchen and stares at her check, then grabs it off the fridge) (Seattle scenes) (Izzie is at the bank) Man: Can I...help you? Izzie: (sobbing) I...I inherited $8 million. Man: I'm sorry? Izzie: Almost 9 actually. (Tears are pouring from her eyes, she's almost hysterical) I'm sorry. (He hands her a tissue) Thank you. Man: I'm sorry, did you say... Izzie: Just take it. Just take it please. Man: Is that...It's covered in food. Is this some kind of joke? Izzie: It is kind of a joke. A really cruel joke. Man: I'm sorry, you want to deposit it? Izzie: If I wanted to deposit it, do you think I would look like this? Man: I don't understand. Izzie: I'm supposed to do something good. I'm supposed to do something good and I...can you just deposit the damn thing already!? (George is in Burke's room) Burke: I'm surprised they proceeded with the surgery. George: Me too. I guess they think he has a strong enough constitution to fight the cancer. Burke: Is he conscious? George: No. He's still intubated. So they have him sedated. Burke: Your main concern over the next few days will be multi-system organ failure. That is that the surgery was too intense for his weakened organs to support. You want to watch the kidneys. Cause if the kidneys fail that's a sign that everything else is starting to go George: So, we're watching the kidneys. Burke: You're watching the kidneys. George: Thank you. Do you mind me asking, how's your hand? Burke: I don't mind if you ask. I will mind if you tell Cristina. George: You two have a strange relationship. Burke: Yes we do. Yeah. (NICU) Thatcher: And when you go home, you're going to have your very own room. Yes you do. And your mom she got one of those stencils. And she made little butterflies and flowers. (Alex catches Meredith watching Thatcher through the window) Alex: You need something? Meredith: No. I'm fine. (Alex goes in the NICU) Thatcher: Oh it gets quiet in here. Alex: You the one that paged me? Nurse: I started my shift 10 minutes ago. Noticed her abdomen looked a little distended Thatcher: Her stomach's distended? I didn't notice that. Alex: It's hard to see. Page Dr. Montgomery STAT. Thatcher: Is everythingOK? Is that bad? Alex: Let's just wait for Dr. Montgomery. (Meredith walks up to Derek at the nurse's station) Derek: What's the matter? Meredith: My father's here. Derek: Your father? Meredith: The one I don't talk to and barely know. He's here. Derek: Is he here to see you? Meredith: No. He's here with his other family. Derek: Oh sorry. Meredith: Where do you sleep at the trailer? Derek: What? Meredith: When we sleep at the trailer. Where do you sleep? Derek: You know the hammock outside? Sorry. Meredith: I'm a girl with abandonment issues. You have to sleep with me from now on. Derek:OK. Meredith:OK. (Izzie walks up to Bailey in the hall) Izzie: A note from my hack of a shrink. I get to scrub in. Bailey: Not till I say so. Izzie: I deposited the check. (Mrs. Douglas is sitting in the hallway, yelling on her cell phone) Mrs. Douglas: You cheap son of a bitch bastards are going straight to hell. Straight to hell! Bailey: Mrs. Douglas? Mrs. Douglas: Insurance bastards. They say the surgery's too experimental. Bailey: They wont pay. Mrs. Douglas: It's a $200,000 surgery, plus a hospital stay, plus rehab. Even if I get 3 jobs...son of a bitch bastards. Bailey: Looks like there won't be a surgery to scrub in on. Sorry Stephens. (Addison enters the NICU) Addison: Talk to me. Alex: Her abdomen was distended and she needed increased ventilatory support. Thatcher: Sorry, I was talking to her, I didn't notice. Alex: Look at her x-rays. Addison: She's got massive free air trapped beneath her diaphragm. Mr. Grey we need to take Laura in for surgery. Thatcher: What another surgery? Why? Addison: Her x-rays indicate that there's a perforation in the bowel. We need to get in there right away. Alex: Here's a form we need you to sign. Thatcher: I don't...I ...her mother has the flu. Alex: You're not authorized to sign? Thatcher: I am but, I'd like to fill her mother in. Addison: We don't have time for you to now know Mr. Grey. Your granddaughter doesn't have time. Thatcher: All right. (Laura's surgery) Addison: Take out more of the bowel, I need better visualization. Alex: It's so tiny I'm afraid I might crush it. Addison: It's tougher than you think. Go ahead and give it a little squeeze. Alex: Thanks. Addison: Look at that. The NG tube is eroded right through the stomach wall. I may have to resect an entire portion of the stomach. (Monitors go off) She's hypotensive, push 30ccs. albumin. Alex: Whew. Scary. Addison: You're telling me. This is Meredith Grey's niece. If I lost her, people might think that I did it on purpose. (Richard walks into the gallery where Meredith is) Richard: How's it going? Meredith:OK. They had a scare a minute ago but she sab. Richard: Your father is pacing up and down the halls. He's worried. Maybe you can give him an update. Meredith: Maybe you can give him an update. Richard: He's not a big fan of mine. Meredith: He's not a big fan of mine either. Richard: I can't imagine that's true. Your mother was a force to be reckoned with. If she wanted things a certain way...I'm saying your father was a good man when I knew him. He may have a side in this that you don't know about. Meredith: What, you think he tried to send me a card every year, and my mother has a whole drawer of unopened cards? Because it's not often that my life turns out that way. Richard: I don't know. But you don't know either until you ask him. (Harold's room) Callie: Hey. How's he doing? Jerry: Georgie's obsessed with our dad's pee. Ronny: Yeah, this is weird even for Georgie. Louise: Boys be nice. George: His kidney function. I'm obsessed with his kidney function, not his pee. I'm not obsessed. I'm excited. Jerry: You're not going to drink that are you Georgie? George: 130ccs. 133ccs of shiny yellow urine! Callie: 130ccs in how long? George: 4 hours. Callie: No way! That is fantastic! Yay! (They start dancing around and George leans in and kisses her ) Thank you. Thank you. (Mark and Addison pass in the hallway) Addison: Mark. I'm sorry you're hurting. Mark: You're sorry I'm hurting or you're sorry? (Addison enters the NICU) Addison: Karev. Alex: Oh hey. I was just checking on the baby's capillary refills. Addison: No that's good, it's good. We all need a little human contact from time to time. Alex: It sucks. It's like she hasn't had a chance to deserve this, you know. Addison: Is that why you wanted to go into plastics? Cause people sign up for the pain they get. Alex: Yeah. For the most part they do, yeah. Addison: You're right. It does suck watching them struggle. And that part never stops sucking. But then you get to see a baby heal and they get to go home and you just imagine this whole life that they're going to live. Well there's noting better than that. And that part never changes. But if you want to go back to plastics... Alex: Nah. The vanilla Latte? I did that on purpose. Addison: Why? Alex: Cause he was rude to you. (They share a moment and lean in to kiss but stop when a nurse enters) Alex: I'm sorry. Addison: No I'm sorry. God, I'm really sorry. Alex: No I'mOK I just...sorry. Addison:OK yeah. Yeah. (Heather's room) Izzie; Oh hey, you need some help? Heather: I can walk to the bathroom myself. I've been doing it my whole life and nothing's changing anytime soon so just get out of my way,OK? (Meredith walks by the NICU and sees Thatch, and walks away Thatcher: Meredith? (Seattle scenes) (George is pondering his father. Bailey is thinking about Mr. O'Malley. Cristina is thinking about Burke. Burke is thinking about Cristina. Alex is in an elevator thinking about Addison. Addison is in another elevator thinking about Alex. Mark is thinking about Addison. Richard walks up to Bailey, he too is worried about Mr. O'Malley. Cristina is laying on a couch in Burke's room. Callie is sitting on some stairs alone. Izzie sits down next to George and grabs his hand. Meredith is asleep, snoring and Derek is just laying next to her, awake.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x11 - Six Days Pt. 1"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x12: Six Days (Part 2) Original Airdate: 1/18/2007 Written by: Krista Vernoff Directed by: Greg Yaitanes (Meredith and Derek are in bed again. She's snoring...again He's buried his head under a pillow. The alarm is going off.) Derek: Ah, just shut it off please? Meredith: Could you not snap at me? Derek: I didn't sleep much. Meredith: Maybe it's because you were too busy shoving me every five minutes. Derek: I wasn't shoving you. I was nudging you to stop the very loud sawing of wood. Meredith: I wore the nose strip. Derek: It's cute but it doesn't work Meredith: Ow. Derek: What? Meredith: You need to shave. (George and Izzie are in the kitchen) George: Izzie uh...the, the...the...the check. It's not (He looks around, drops to the floor searching) George: It's not...did you drop it? It's not here! Izzie, it's not here. Izzie: I deposited it ok? George: You didn't deposit it in the garbage disposal or something like that did you? Izzie: It's at the bank. Ok, George? Now just shut up about it already? George: It's at the bank? It's earning interest? Izzie: Did I not just say shut up about it already? George: Izzie, it's real now. That money...that money could travel, it could buy things. It could buy many, many things. It a...that's a lot of money Izzie. Izzie: Shut up about it George. George: I'm just saying...life is short. Cancer happens. And surgery happens. You know just..."gather ye rosebuds" You have 8.7 million rosebuds Izzie. You gotta spend some rosebuds. That's what I'm saying. (Izzie looks down to her skillet) Izzie: You made me burn my French toast. George: You can buy new French toast! (Seattle scenes, Addison is on the ferry) (Addison sees Mark walking in her direction, and turns around only to run into Alex) Addison: Oh. Alex: Hey...I was...the baby's... Addison: Good. Yeah, she's good. Alex: Good that's... (Thatcher walks up) Thatcher: Doctors. Addison: Yes. Thatcher: I was wondering, the baby looks... Addison and Alex: Good. Alex: She's good. Addison: She is good. Thatcher: She's good? She's out of the woods? Addison: She is. She's out of the woods. Her vitals are strong. She made it through the night. And she's a fighter. Thatcher: So I can tell my wife and my daughter? Addison: You can. And you should. Thatcher: Thank you. Thank you both so much! (He runs off to tell his family, and Addison and Alex try to walk away but keep moving in front of each other.) Alex: Sorry. (Thatcher is on the phone in the waiting room) Thatcher: Yeah. She's out of the woods. No... (Meredith Izzie and Christina watch) Meredith: How am I related to that man? Cristina: What do you mean? Meredith: I mean, look at him. He's a mess. (He swings his arm to hard and spills coffee everywhere) I mean he's a disaster. A stammering, mumbling, clumsy disaster with whom I have absolutely nothing in common. Not one thing. Izzie: I hate to break this to you but... Meredith: What? Cristina: You do your own share of stammering yourself. Izzie: Yeah, that nervous talking thing you do, it's actually a lot like him. Meredith: No it's not. Cristina: Plus that messy thing. Izzie: Totally. Meredith: You're the messy one. Cristina: My apartment is messy, my locker is messy, but I am not messy. Sometimes you have like...food and stuff in your hair. Izzie: Yeah food. Band-Aids on your face. I can still kind of see that indentation from that nose strip you were wearing last night. Meredith: You are in a relationship with no words. And you are a millionaire in $20 shoes. Whatever. (Meredith walks away) Cristina: Oh my god, she's just like him. Izzie: Right? Cristina: Wow. (Izzie gets paged to Heather Douglas' room) Izzie; Dr. Bailey you paged me? Bailey: Yes I did. Derek: We're going to proceed with Heather's surgery as scheduled. Izzie: The insurance guys change their mind? Mrs. Douglas: No even better. Bailey: It seems an anonymous donor has offered to foot the entire bill. Izzie: Wow, that is incredible. You're a very lucky girl. Heather: Hey, that's the first time anyone has ever said that sentence to me in my entire life. I like it. (Bailey stares at Izzie, she knows Izzie paid for it, and drags her outside.) Bailey: You spent 300 grand so you could scrub in on this surgery? Izzie: No. Bailey: No? Izzie: I spent the 3...have you seen that girl? Her life is miserable. She's desperate. She'll never have a date. She'll never wear high heels. She'll never feel normal. I spent 300 grand because...it's a good thing. Bailey: I was hoping you would tell me you spent the money so you could scrub in. Izzie: But I... Bailey: You need to decide whether or not you're a surgeon. Because this thing you did...this is lovely and generous, and I'm not trying to take away from any of that. But, you are once again...you are overly involved. Once again you are personally involved. So...no I'm sorry. You cannot scrub in. (Seattle Scenes) (Callie is at a table in the cafeteria talking to Addison) Callie: George kissed me. Yesterday. One minute he was holding a urine bag, the next minute he's kissing me. Do you think he's just freaking out about his dad? Yeah, you're right. He's probably just freaking out. I shouldn't hold him to it. Addison: (who's staring off into space) What? Callie: Did you not just hear a word I said? I'm pouring my heart out here. Jeez it's all about you. It's all about...Everything's about Addison. Addison: I aborted Mark's baby. Callie: It is all about you. Floor is all yours. Addison: About 8 months ago I peed on a stick. And I wasn't even going to tell him. But then I did...tell him. And he went out and he bought this insane Yankees onesie. And a calendar and marked the due date. Which I should mention was today. Callie: You didn't want a baby? Addison: I wanted Derek. I wanted to have a baby with Derek. I never thought I'd end up alone. Callie: You have not "ended up" anywhere. Addison: You're right. I know. I just...sometimes it feels that way you know. This is one of those weeks it feels that way. (Heather's OR) Derek: Drill. Another screw please. (In the gallery) Alex: Hey, how's your old man? George: His urine output's holding steady. Which is good. Cristina: Have you seen Burke today? George: Even if I did like you I still wouldn't tell you that. Izzie: How can you be ok with Burke but not Cristina? George: Her career wasn't on the line when she lied to me. Meredith: Why don't you just ask Burke about the hand yourself? Cristina: I'm not talking to him. He owes me. Meredith: What? Cristina: Oh I don't know. Alex: So you're together but you don't talk to each other. Wish I could find that in a woman. Meredith: Hey how's it going with Addison? Alex: What? Why would you...what do you mean by that? Meredith: Laura Grey. Tiny baby. Alex: Oh Laura. Right. She's doing fine. She's doing well. I gotta get out of gynie though. I gotta get back to Sloan. Christina: What are you plotting and can I get in on it? Alex: Shut up. (Alex leaves) Izzie: This is my surgery. I should be down there. (George's pager goes off) George: No. Excuse me. (Meredith's pager goes off) Meredith: Mr. O'Malley. Cristina: 911? Meredith: Yeah. Izzie: Sucks. (Callie notices from inside the OR) Derek: Give me the retractor. Callie: Uh Dr. Shepherd could you proceed without me? Derek: Are you kidding me? This is your surgery Torres. This is your find. You want to leave? Callie: I don't. But yes. I'm sorry. If it's all right I need to leave. Derek: Give me some sponges please. (Bailey is at a table with George's family) Bailey: Ok I called the family in because I need to do a procedure on your father to help him breathe. Ronny: So you're saying he can't breathe? Bailey: With the extensive surgery, your father is not breathing on his own. Which is why we still have him intubated. Jerry: Intubated? George: The tube in dad's mouth it's breathing for him. Bailey: And right now that tube has a kink in it, which is straining his breathing. Louise: How did it get a kink in it? George: It just happens, we don't always know why. Ronny: But he's doing good today. I mean, he made plenty of pee so... Bailey: Still, we need to replace the tube. Ronny: So, why don't you just do it? I mean what are we waiting for? Bailey: Ok, with the damage to your father's esophagus and the swelling in his throat from being intubated all this time... George: You might not be able to get it in? The new tube? Bailey: Under these circumstances it can be a complicated procedure. If I'm not successful...I'm saying you need to prepare yourselves. (They stand in a line outside his room: The brothers, Mrs. O'Malley, George and Callie. Ronny starts sniffing and grunts. Soon everyone else looks up.) Louise: What is that? Ronny: It's Jerry. Jerry: I'm sorry. I'm nervous. (They all cover their noses) Jerry: I'm nervous (He passes gas and they all erupt in laughter and George leans into Callie, embarrassed but needing her support) (Cristina enters Burke's room) Cristina: Tyler. Tyler: Yeah. Cristina: Could you let Dr. Burke know that Mr. O'Malley is having some sort of medical crisis right now and I thought he would like to know. Tyler: He's awake you know. Cristina: Yeah I know. (Room where Bailey is changing Harold's tube) Bailey: You want to handle this Chief? Richard: Dr. Bailey you have a lot more hands on hours these days than I do. I'll be standing by to help but this is all yours. Bailey: All right Grey let me have 80ET... Richard: Dr. Bailey, this is a patient. Just like any other patient. There's no room for error, which means there's no room for nerves. Bailey: All right let's do this. 8 O. I can't...I can't... Meredith: Is it too tight? Bailey: I can't get it past the vocal cords. Damn it. Richard: Pulse ox down to 88. Let's go. Bailey: Let me have a 7.5. Richard: Come on. Bailey: Ok I got it. Richard: Beautiful job. Beautiful job. Meredith: Can I go tell George? (Bailey nods) Richard: Dr. Bailey you alright? Bailey: My son is named after his son. I just need a minute. (Meredith and Derek in bed again. Another sleepless night.) Derek: There's a surgery you now. It's a minor laser thing. Supposed to really help. We could look into it. Meredith: Sure and while we're at it lets look at halitosis cure for you. Not to mention stubble cures. Because it's now become physically impossible for me to kiss your face. Derek: I'm too tired to shave. (Seattle scenes) Alex: Sloan. Dr. Sloan. Bone dry cappuccino. I watched them make it this time so no mistakes. Hey I noticed you have a reconstructive rhinoplasty on the board today and I'd really like to scrub in if at all possible. Mark: You been working with Addison this week? Alex: Yes sir. Working. Working a lot. Real hard. Working. Mark: Is she miserable? Alex: I'm sorry? Mark: It's just...I need to know if she's at least miserable this week. Did she seem...is she miserable? Alex: Oh dude. She's awful. She's torturing me. I seriously have to get away from that woman. She is completely and utterly 100% miserable. Mark: Good. Alex: So can I scrub in? Mark: No. (Cristina and Meredith are in the on-call room) Cristina: Are you sleeping? Meredith: I should be. I haven't slept in days. Cristina: Me either. I can't sleep alone any more. I used to sleep just fine then he...he gets me all strung out on him and then he disappears? Meredith: He didn't disappear. He's in the hospital. Cristina: I just want to know how he's doing. Meredith: You could just ask him. Cristina: He could just tell me. Meredith: George's dad is going into renal failure. Cristina: I heard. Meredith: My dad's here everywhere, every day. He's perfectly healthy and I have nothing to say to him. If George's dad dies... Cristina: I know. Meredith: If Thatcher died my life wouldn't be any different. Is it weird that I'm a little jealous of George? Cristina: Yes. (George is in Burke's room) George: Bailey re-intubated him but...he was without oxygen for I don't know ...few minutes? Burke: O'Malley...there's no blame here. Your father's body is diseased and has undergone tremendous trauma. Now his organs are shutting down. There's no blame here. George: Do people come back from this? His BUN and creatine are high. I get that. I was just wondering, in your experience, can people come back from this? Burke: I don't have any statistics. I don't have any more medicine for you. Now it's about faith. George: We're men of science. Burke: In my experience, science is not enough O'Malley. But if you want me to hope with you. If you'd like me to send up a prayer, that is a thing I'd be happy to do. (Louise is in the waiting room with Heather's mom) Louise: You have family here? Mrs. Douglas: Yeah, a daughter. She's 17. Louise: Oh I'm so sorry. Mrs. Douglas: Yeah, she had surgery on her spine. They said it went well. But then she has trouble with her kidneys so...well she hasn't woken up. Louise: My husband either. Mrs. Douglas: It was a dangerous surgery. They told us that. Louise: My husband's too. He has cancer so...I was surprised when they went through with it. I thought I'd be taking him home. (George has a realization. Izzie enters) Izzie: Mrs. Douglas, Heather is asking for you. Louise: She woke up? Izzie: She did. And she looks great. Louise: Congratulations. It's wonderful. Mrs. Douglas: Good luck. I'll...good luck. Louise: Thanks. (George walks to the nurse's station where Bailey and Richard are) George: Why did you do it? Richard: Dr. O'Malley. George: Why did you do it once you saw the cancer had spread? Bailey: George... George: He asked you right? He asked you to do it no matter what? Richard: We have to honor our patient's wishes. George: You said you would be straight with me. He could have lived for weeks or months. We could have had months with him. My mom...she could have had months with him. Richard: He wanted a chance to fight the cancer George. It was his choice. George: He didn't know any better! You knew better! You shouldn't have done it. You shouldn't have done it! (Seattle scenes) (Addison enters the office where Mark is) Addison: Oh my god, look at you. Mark: I'm miserable. Addison: It's the rain. The constant dampness in the air. It takes the body a while to adjust to it. Mark: I don't want to adjust. Addison: Then go home. Mark: If you had the baby, we'd be together in New York right now and it wouldn't be raining. And even if it was, we wouldn't care because we'd be together. We'd be together and I would have a family instead of walking pneumonia and an ex-best friend who hates me. Addison: You didn't want to raise a child Mark. You wanted to trump Derek. You wanted to win. Mark: Don't make this my fault. You didn't want a baby. Addison: No I did want a baby Mark. That last woman you slept with before I left New York...Charlene, the PEDS nurse? Did you think that she was the only one I knew about? You're re-writing history Mark. We wouldn't still be together. We weren't a great couple and you would have made a terrible father Mark. I did want a baby, I did. I just didn't want one with you. (Christina brings lunch on a tray to Burke. He smiles at the gesture but then she backs away. No food unless he talks first. He pushes his "panic" button to call a nurse.) Nurse: Is that his lunch? I've been looking everywhere for that. Cristina: No he can't have that. Nurse: What? Cristina: He's restricted from food. Nurse: No he's not. Cristina: I'm his doctor. Nurse: You are not. Cristina: I just want to know how he is. Burke: And withholding food gets her that how? Cristina: Fine. Feed him. Whatever. Nurse: You want me to call security? (Alex enters the NICU where Addison is checking on Laura) Alex: Hey. Addison: Hey. Haven't seen you the last couple of days. Alex: Yeah, I was covering the pit. I got pulled into an emergency appy and a ruptured spleen. Pretty chaotic. Addison: Look Karev, I'm your attending. I'm sorry about what happened. It's been a weird week for me. So, um, normally...anyway...I apologize. Alex: The baby's bowels functioning yet? Addison: Actually yeah. She had her first diaper change today. Alex: That's good. Addison: Yeah it is. (Seattle scenes) (George is shaving his dad's face) George: That neighbor kid? Mike Wilden? I did ht him in the face with a stick. And when his dad came over and he was yelling, and you asked me if it was true...I lied. And you thought I'd never lied. So you took my side. And you and his dad got in this big fight. And then his kids egged our house, and then Ronny and Jerry went over and blew up his lawn mower. Anyway...I did it. He was teasing me and he was bigger than me so I needed a stick to reach his face. And I lied to you dad. So...I'm saying I'm sorry. Dad...if you have any more fight in you...if you could fight this thing just...just a little harder that would be good. That'd be good right now. (Meredith enters the kitchen where Izzie is) Izzie: Where's Derek? Meredith: He slept at his place. Do I really snore? Izzie: I grew up next to a freeway so it really doesn't bother me but yeah...you do. Meredith: Did you get any sleep last night? Izzie: No. I stayed up baking and cleaning the bathroom floor in case George wants to lay down on it. It's weird, I have all this money. And I would spend every penny of it to save George from what he's about to go through. But I can't. It's useless. So I made cobbler. Meredith: Cobbler's good. Izzie: Yeah. (Seattle scenes) (Callie walks up to a nurse's station where Mark is. She gives him a knowing look) Mark: She told you. Callie: Uh yeah. Mark: You think I'd be a terrible father? Callie: Oh I don't...I don't...are you...ok do you like kids? Mark: I don't know. Depends on how loud they are. Callie: Ok. Do you like your family? I mean, are you a family kind of guy? Mark: I don't really have a family. Derek was my family. Callie: Ok. Well, what about birthdays and anniversaries? Do you remember those kinds of things? Mark: No. I don't know. Sometimes. Isn't it the same with all men. Callie: No. Some men just like kids. To some men, family's everything. Mark: Right, and you know these men? Callie: I do. I know one. Mark: I would've made a terrible father. (Conference room) Louise: You're saying...it's not getting better. You're saying he's not going to wake up. Richard: Mrs. O'Malley, all of his organs are shutting down. His liver and his kidneys are no longer supporting him. And he is entirely dependant upon his life support machine. Bailey: We are saying he is not going to wake up. You can keep him on life support and wait for nature to take its course. That could take days or weeks. Or you can take him off life support. Louise: Unplug him? Bailey: Yes Ma'am. Jerry: Georgie? George: Yeah? Jerry: What do you think? George: Dad's in pain. His organs are shutting down. He can't breathe on his own. It's painful. And he's on medication but...medication can only do so much. Louise: You think...you're saying...you think it's time...to let him go? Bailey: We can't tell you what to do here George. George: He's not dad like this. And he's not going to wake up Mom. (They all break down crying, Bailey, Meredith and Richard are saddened as well) (Seattle scenes) (Meredith walks into the NICU where Thatcher is) Meredith: Is there a drawer of unopened cards somewhere? Thatcher: I'm sorry, what? Meredith: I just wanted to know. I've only ever heard my mother's version of the story of why you left. I'm just wondering if maybe you have a side that I haven't heard. Thatcher: Your mother moved to Boston and...I wanted to...but she told me not to call or come around...she was...eventually I remarried and I...I'm sorry. Meredith: Do you snore? Thatcher: What? Meredith: It appears that I snore. My mother never did so I was just...forget it. Thatcher: I snore. I snore like a trucker. You get that from me. The wax earplugs work pretty good. Meredith: Thanks. (Derek enters Burke's room, Cristina is sitting there) Derek: Hey. Burke: Derek. I was waiting on an update on Mr. O'Malley. I didn't want to intrude, but do you have an update? Derek: They're letting him go. (He looks at Cristina) Burke: Haven't had any more tremors. Not one all week. Derek: How about that? Burke: Yeah. How about that. (Bailey removes Mr. O'Malley's tube. The family says goodbye. The interns stand outside. George leaves the room and everyone looks at him sadly. The interns go off their separate directions.) (Heather is up and walking using a walker. Izzie sees her and they smile at each other.) (Izzie walks up to Bailey in the hallway) Izzie: I'm both. Bailey: What? Izzie: I'm both. I'm a surgeon. And I'm a person who becomes emotionally involved. I will never again cross the line like I did with Denny. I learned my lesson. But I'm still both. And I'm not gonna give up either part of me. And I'm not going to apologize for it. (Bailey nods but says nothing. Izzie leaves and Bailey starts crying.) (Cristina is outside of the hospital with George) Christina: There's a club...the dad dad's club. And you can't be in it until you're in it. You can try and understand...you can sympathize. But until you feel that loss...my dad died when I was 9. George...I'm really sorry you had to join the club. George: I...I don't know how to exist in a world where my dad doesn't. Christina: Yeah, that never really changes. (Seattle scenes) (Joe's bar) Alex: Beer, Joe. Please Joe: George's dad? (Alex nods no.) Addison: Hey. Alex: Hey. Addison: You got a dad? Alex: Not really. Not any more. (Addison leans in and kisses him) (Meredith is asleep and snoring. Derek comes in and finds wax earplugs on his pillow. He puts them in his ears and he can't hear anything. Finally, he and Meredith can sleep together peacefully)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x12 - Six Days Pt.2"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x13: Great Expectations Original Airdate: 1/25/2007 Written by: Eric Buchman Directed by: Michael Grossman (Bailey is standing in the hall motionless while everyone and everything moves around her) MVO: No one believes their life will turn out just kind of ok. We all think we're going to be great. And from the day we decide to become surgeons, we are filled with expectation. Expectations of the trails we will blaze, the people we will help, the difference we will make. Great expectations of who we will be, where we will go, and then we get there. (Derek and Meredith are having dinner at Burke and Cristina's house. Cristina is up on the counter eating cereal while the rest are at the table with good food and wine) Burke: Meredith, would you like seconds? Meredith: I'm great. Maybe Cristina would like some. Cristina would you like some? Burke: I only made dinner for 3. Meredith: You just said there was seconds. Derek: This is...awkward. Meredith: You know, we could go, and you two could talk. Cristina: We're talking. Meredith: To each other. You're enjoying your meal at the international house of silence? Burke, you have to feed Cristina. She doesn't cook and she will starve. Cristina: I've got cereal! Meredith: You two live together. Someone has to be the first to speak. Burke: I am giving a dinner party. If she wants to sit there she can sit there. Let's just enjoy our evening and talk about something else. Derek: I heard a crazy rumor today from one of the scrub nurses that Richard was retiring. Burke: It's an interesting rumor. (Cristina snorts in disbelief) Derek: What? It's true? Richard's going to name a new chief of surgery? Cristina: He asked Burke. But Burke took himself out of the running which apparently is my fault for being part of the team. Derek: He asked you? Burke: Who wants desert? (Seattle scenes) (Derek and Meredith are at her house) Meredith: It's so sad. She's not talking to him. He's not talking to her either. Derek: He said that when he retired I would become Chief. No, no. He asks Burke. Meredith: I don't think they're going to make it. Derek: He said "Shep you're my man". Not Burke. Meredith: How can two people be in a relationship and not talk? Derek: I am supposed to be chief. (Izzie knocks on George's door) Izzie: George. Can I come in? I made you some cookies and brownies and muffins of course. I always make muffins. (Callie comes out of George's room) Callie: Thank God you're here. I can't take any more. Three times already tonight and he's getting ready for a fourth. Izzie: Are you talking about...oh. Callie: Yeah I'd get it if he were all crying and depressed. Everyone deals in different ways but this is not grieving. This is my legs being bent in ways my legs do not go. And i know. I know his dad died. I know. I get it. I feel horrible, but ow ow ow. Izzie: I'm going to give you guys some privacy. Callie; No. You stay. You take over for me ok? Izzie: Callie Torres! Callie; No. Not like that. I am giving him to you ok? You are now officially on George Watch 2007. You are his friend. Yay. I need a break. And I need to heal I need to heal. Izzie: No. What am I supposed to do? George: Callie? Callie: Thank you. Goodbye. (George comes out naked) George: What is taking you so long...oh. Where is she? Izzie: She had to go. Are you hungry? (Seattle scenes) (Alex walks up to Addison in the hall) Alex: Hey. Addison: Oh. Dr. Karev. Hello. Alex: What's wrong with you? Addison: No I'm good. I'm good�I'm...all good. Alex: You've been avoiding me for a week. Addison: No. I have not. Alex: Ok, fine. Forget it. (He leaves and Callie passes Addison on the stairs) Addison: I kissed Karev. Callie: George has become a sex machine. (Locker room) Izzie: George has turned into a sex machine. Are you hearing me? A machine of sex. We have to do something. What's wrong with you people? Meredith: Derek kept me up all night with his ranting. Cristina and Burke still aren't speaking to each other. Cristina: Oh you know what? I'm fine. I'm just not going to be the first one talking. He's going to be the first cause I'm in the right. Talking first is for losers. I'm winning. Meredith: And Alex. I don't know what's wrong with Alex. Alex: Nothing wrong with me. I'm all good. Izzie: Let me just remind you that I'm still recovering from the death of my fianc�, the demise of my surgical career, the fact that I was forced to deposit an $8 million check that I was saving for a good cause even though I haven't found a good cause. I'm the only one here under the care of a shrink. I could blow any minute. Now, George's dad has died. He's turned into a sex machine. I'm going to need a little help with that so one of you better pull it together. (George walks in all frantic) George: Hey anyone seen Callie. I kind of need to see her for something. (George and Izzie are walking through the hall) Izzie: Last I heard, perpetual sex was not one of the five stages of grief. Denial is though. George: That's not what I...You shouldn't be listening at other people's doors. Izzie: You were in the hallway naked. I saw you. George: I blocked that out. (They walk up to Addison) Izzie; Denial. Dr. Montgomery is sex another form of denial? Addison: What do you know? George: That you have a GYN patient here that you want us to see. Addison: That's right. That's right, I do. Shall we. (Richard enters the elevator) Derek: Chief! Bailey: Chief! Derek: I gotta talk to the chief. Bailey: So do I and I was here first. Richard: I have a meeting to get to. A very important meeting. Bailey: I'll talk quickly. Richard: You can get in too Shepherd if you're fast. Derek: Mine's not fast, mine's epic. Richard: Then it'll have to wait. Bailey: Why are you wearing a tie? And why are you smiling like that? Richard: You have the length of this elevator ride Miranda. Use it well. Bailey: I have two words for you Chief�free clinic. Richard: What? Bailey: I want Seattle Grace to open a free clinic. I know, it's a big undertaking... Richard: This isn't even surgical, Bailey: I've done all the research. Richard: Miranda, there's all kinds of hoops to jump through. Funding, you have to get the departments heads ok. Bailey: Well if I get the support, will you consider this? Richard: I'll think about it. I can't imagine why you want to take this on. You're a surgeon. I've go to get to my meeting. (Jillian's room) George: Your chart says you've been having some pain and bleeding? Rachel: She has, for weeks. Jillian: It's not a big deal. Rachel: I had to drag her in here. Jillian: On our one day off from the restaurant. Rachel: Just let the doctors check you out. A lot of doctors. She needs three people for a pap smear? Addison: Actually it's not a pap smear. It's a pelvic exam. And since this is a teaching hospital I was going to have one of the interns do the exam, but if you're uncomfortable with that... Jillian: No it's fine. I'm helping you guys learn something right? Addison: Stevens? Izzie: Ok, Julie. I'm just going to warm the speculum for comfort, so if you'll just relax your knees. Jillian: You don't have to stay here if you don't... Rachel: Of course I'm staying. We do everything together. Might as well do this. Jillian: Rachel and I were born two days apart. Izzie: It's nice that your friendship has stayed so strong. Rachel: Cradle to grave right? Jillian: Cradle to grave. Izzie: Just relax this muscle for me. You're going to feel the speculum. Dr. Montgomery. Addison: Ok uh... Rachel: Jilly... Jillian: Wait. He didn't get to look. George: I don't have to. Jillian: This is a teaching hospital right? He should learn. Addison: Dr. O'Malley. Rachel: Ok, what do you have up there? Is she pregnant? Oh my god, if you're pregnant. Jillian: No I'm not pregnant. Am I? Addison: No. (Outside Jillian's room) George: I could see the tumor. With my naked eye, I could see the tumor. Izzie: I've never seen a cervical tumor that large. (Rachel walks out) Rachel: Does she have cancer? Izzie: It'll take hours to get the biopsy results back. Rachel: If she has cancer, you need to tell me. Cause if you tell me in front of her, I'll start crying. And when I cry, she cries. George: If she has family, parents...you should call them. You should call them now. Rachel: Her parents...we left home. We both left home when we were 16, and we haven't been back. We don't speak to them. It's complicated. Izzie: It's just that Jilly...in situations like these, she might change her mind. She might want her family. Rachel: I am her family. She is my family. I am not contacting her parents and neither are you. (Jim's room) Mark: Jim, annoying interns. Annoying interns, Jim. Jim is semi-comatose and has stage three decubitus ulcers. Alex: Bedsores? Mark: Right. So he's going to need to be debrieded, have his dressings changed, and have his position changed every two hours. Meredith: Every two hours? By the time we finish we'll just have to start again. Mark: I'm crying on the inside. Alex: Can't the nurses help? Mark: They could but I like nurses. They're helpful and smart and already good at their jobs. So as a going away gift to them, I'm going to let you hang with Jim while I go do one last rhinoplasty at Seattle Grace. I do like to leave a city a little prettier than when I came. (Mark leaves) Alex: Did he just say he was leaving? As in quitting? (Bailey walks up to Derek) Bailey: Dr. Shepherd? Derek: Dr. Bailey. how was your meeting with the Chief? Bailey: That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about. There's a project I'm trying to get off the ground. I'd like to open a free clinic. Derek: Why? Bailey: Because I want to. And I could use your support. Derek: Ah, see that kind of project requires logistical, strategic and administrative components. Something the Chief does. Apparently I'm not cut out for that kind of work. So, you're going to have to take it to someone else. (Callie walks up to Cristina) Callie: How's George? Cristina: Dealing I guess. Callie: Well he sure has a voracious appetite. Christina: You know, some people bake, others eat. Callie: No not that appetite, I mean the other appetite. Cristina: Whoa. Ok. We're not friends, you and I. We're not friends. Please don't talk to me about what George eats. Callie: Ok I was just concerned and I thought you'd be concerned. But you know what? Forget it. I don't like you Cristina: Oh, now me feelings are hurt. (ER) Cristina: Steve Beck, 32. Right patellar dislocation secondary to a fall while running a marathon. Steve: Paramedics told me I blacked out. Callie: Any theories as to how Mr. Beck here passed out? Cristina: No sign of head injury. his BP was low in the field. 80/60. Callie: Athletes have low BPs. Cristina: Well in that case it's probably dehydration. Steve. I drank a lot along the way. Callie: What else did you do today? Steve: Ate a couple of protein bars. Took a couple of aspirin for this cold I'm fighting. I got another race next month. OH! (Callie's snapped his leg back in place.) Callie: All right, put him in a patellar brace, get a couple of post-reduction films and run some labs. Make sure he's not too dehydrated. And Steve, next time you have a cold, you might want to skip the race. Steve: Never. (Izzie and George are walking through the hall) Izzie: You gonna be ok with this? Working on a cancer case? George: Yeah. Why? Izzie: Cause of your dad. (He sees Callie in the hall) George: Callie! Hey. Callie: Hi. Uh, sorry. Busy. Izzie. (Callie rushes off) George: Is she avoiding me? Izzie: Maybe. I don't know. But I'm here. If you want to talk. I know you're sad. George: I don't want to talk about that. Izzie: George I'm your friend. I'm trying to help you. George: Why are you making this about you? Izzie: It's not about me. It's about me wanting to talk about you needing so much sex that your girlfriend's vagina is broken. George: Puritans. Izzie: I'm not a puritan. George: Izzie... (He turns her around to see a man and woman that appear to be from some devout Amish community) George: Do you need some help? (The man replies in Pennsylvanian Dutch) George: Pardon? Man: Our daughter is here somewhere. Izzie: What's her name? We'll look her up for you. Woman: Jillian Millar. Jilly. (Jillian's room) Rachel: Don't worry, if this was something serious, I can switch my shift at the restaurant. Maybe work nights instead of days. Jillian: Mom? Dad? Mom: Hello Jilly. Rachel: What are you doing here? You called her parents? I told you not to. Izzie: No, I didn't. Jillian: It's ok Rach. She meant well. Rachel: (speaking Dutch) She's fine. We're fine. We don't need you. Jillian: They can't talk to you remember? Rachel: Right. I'm shunned. Can't give an inch can you? All these rules. Addison: Jilly, I have your test results. I'm sorry, you are? Jillian: My parents. Father: It is�it is cancer? Addison: We'll have to perform a radical hysterectomy. Rachel: Surgery? Jillian: It's ok Rach. Mom: But how did...how does it get this badly? Rachel: Jilly doesn't want you here ok? Jillian: Rachel it's ok. Rachel: They're just here to make you go back with them. Is that what you want? Do you want to go back there? Jillian: Mom, Dad. You should go. Mom: But you're having surgery. Jillian: I know but�you coming...was a mistake. Please go home. (In Dutch) This pains me. (Meredith is talking with Mark at the nurse's station) Meredith: You're quitting? Mark: As soon as I find the Chief and hand him my letter of resignation. Meredith: Why? Mark: I hate it here. I hate the town. I hate the weather. I hate the people. They're mean. They're unforgiving. Meredith: Uh huh. The people of Seattle are unforgiving or are Derek and Addison? Mark: What's your point? Meredith: What about your contract? Mark: My non-binding verbal agreement with Richard? Yeah. I'm breaking that. Meredith: Well it's not as if he's going to be around to enforce it so... Mark: What do you mean? Meredith: Well rumor has it he's stepping down so� Mark: The chief? Well who's going to take his place? Meredith: Why do you care? You're leaving anyway. (Addison and Derek are talking) Derek: When Richard asked you to come out here, what did he use for bait? Addison: He told me I would have the foremost neonatal intensive care unit west of Manhattan. Derek: Ok, he didn't say anything about being Chief. Addison: What do you know? Derek: Nothing. I know what you know. Addison: You're lying. Alex: Dr. Montgomery. Addison: I'm busy now Karev. (She walks off) Alex: (Loudly)When you get a minute I'd like to talk about the kissing. (Cristina enters Jim's room) Cristina: Who'd you piss off? Meredith: Sloan. Cristina: Nice. Alex: You got anything good? Cristina: Not even a fracture. You think a guy that passes out while running, I'd at least get a fracture. Burke: Anyone available to assist me on a truncus arteriosis surgery? Alex: Yeah. Meredith: Yes absolutely. Burke: Good. Then the first one of you to accurately describe the condition will get to scrub in. No one knows the answer. That's too bad. It'll probably be years before we see another one like this. Oh well. Cristina: It's a single arterial trunk coming from the ventricles. How could you not know that? Alex: How could you not say it? (Burke and Derek are in the scrub room) Burke: I'm sorry you had to find out about that chief thing that way. Derek: You mean after the fact? It's not the first time. Burke: I couldn't go to anybody about my hand. I didn't know who I could trust. I was stuck. Derek: Yeah. Well now you're not. Hand's all better and you can operate. You can even run for Chief. Life is good again. Burke: No, I'm not going to try for Chief. I'm looking for...answers. Derek: Well the Chief asked you once already. I don't see why he wouldn't do it again. Burke: Look I couldn't take the job. It wouldn't be...it wouldn't be right. Derek: Well if something's right or not, it doesn't seem to matter in this place. (ER) Cristina: Your labs show that you are significantly dehydrated and your muscles are breaking down a bit. We just want to make sure that the fluids help get everything back to normal before we send you home. Steve: Well my knee's going to be ok right? Cause I blew this race, I gotta win the next one. Cristina: Your x-rays look fine. Your knee should be ok in about 3 weeks. You might want to try some PT. Steve: It's really sore. Cristina: The knee? Steve: Yeah, my calves too. Cristina: Oh well... your brace is probably a little too tight. (She lifts the covers to reveal his two HUGE legs) You've got extreme swelling in both legs. Get Torres now. Callie: What the hell happened? Cristina: He was complaining of leg pain. Steve: Please just make it stop. Cristina: I can't find a pulse. Callie: Ok, open a cut-down tray. Gloves. All right I need you to do everything exactly as I do ok? Steve? Listen to me. This is going to hurt. If you want to keep your legs I need you to hold them still. Can you do that? Alright Hold his legs.Follow my lead. (Callie takes a scalpel and cuts a line down his calf while he's still awake, and Christina follows suit. Steve cries out in pain) (Steve's room) Richard: His kidneys are failing. Why in the hell is this progressing so rapidly? Callie: Damn it. Chief: What? Callie: The aspirin. Because of the marathon and his dehydration his muscles are breaking down and the aspirin is accelerating the process. His whole system's crashing. Richard: The toxins in his system are gonna kll him. I need to put in a dialysis under fluoro. Lets get this man to an OR now people. (Izzie and George are at the nurse's station) Izzie: You wanna grab lunch? George: Actually I was just hoping I could grab lunch with Callie. Have you seen her? Izzie: No but... George: I think I'm going to page her. Izzie: George... George: Izzie. Izzie: They're still here (Jillian's parents) George: They're her parents. Where else are they going to go? Actually I'm going to find Callie. (Alex walks up to Addison in the hall) Alex: Dr. Montgomery. Addison: Now's not a good time Karev. (He drags her into a closet) Karev what are you doing? Alex: Listen all right. You kissed me. You kissed me and ever since you've been avoiding me. Addison: Alex... Alex: You've been avoiding me because you just assume that I want you. You expect that everyone who you look sideways at is pining after you right? Has it even occurred to you that maybe I'm not even interested. Addison: You're not interested? Alex: You think I want to be just another intern sleeping with an attending? Addison: You kissed me back. Alex: You're my boss. I mean, what did you expect me to do? Look Sloan's had me changing bandages all day and I would way rather be scrubbing in on one of your surgeries. And if you keep avoiding me, then I don't get to scrub in. So stop avoiding me. It happened. And it doesn't have to happen again. Addison: All right. Alex: All right. (Derek walks up to Mark) Derek: Rumor has it you're headed back to New York. Mark: Where'd you hear that? Derek: Good news travels fast. Actually I was going to ask you to scrub in on a peripheral nerve reconstruction. But since it's your last day� Mark: It isn't and I'd love to. Derek: What�I thought� Mark: I was going. Now I'm not. Rumor has it there's a race for Chief. Derek: Where'd you hear that? Mark: Good news travels fast. Especially when you have a chatty girlfriend. Anyway, see you later. (Cristina and Callie in the scrub room) Cristina: Have you done that before? Callie: Sliced a guy's legs open while he was awake? No. Cristina: Impressive. Callie: You too. Not that we're friends or anything. Cristina: So you said I should be concerned. About George... Callie: He doesn't talk...about his dad. We don't talk about anything really. Cristina: Talking's overrated. Callie: So you and Burke still aren't...George told me. Cristina: So you talked about that. Callie: Yeah a week ago. If this keeps up, you and Burke might be the last thing we ever talk about. So what's the last thing you and Burke talked about? Silence is overrated. (Jillian's room) Izzie: Where's Rachel? Jillian: She went to go make some phone calls. Try to get her shifts covered. Izzie: You know Jilly, your parents are still here. Jillian: They are? Izzie: And I'm not the one who called them. Jillian: Yeah. Izzie: You called them right? And I'm guessing they had to fly in from somewhere. So you called them what...yesterday, the day before? Jillian: I went to the ER a while ago. And they told me to see an oncologist. But, I couldn't afford my rent let alone pay a bunch of medical bills. But, then I got scared. Izzie: You called your parents. Jillian: I didn't know what else to do. Izzie: You sent them away because... Jillian: Rachel's my best friend. And after she was baptized, she decided to leave the community. Which means she's shunned. But I couldn't let her go out in the world all by herself. Izzie: So you're shunned too? Jillian: No. I hadn't been baptized yet. But Rachel, she'll never... Izzie: Do you want to go back? Jillian: I think about it. It's my home you know? If I'm dying, I want an Amish funeral. I want to be buried in the white dress and I want everybody to be there. Izzie: It's your home. Jillian: But...I made a promise to Rachel. Cradle to grave. (Jillian's surgery) Izzie: How did Jilly let it get this far? Addison: It's frustrating isn't it? And it's entirely preventable. And treatable if you catch it in time, but you've got to catch it. Bailey: Which is why I want to open a clinic. If she'd had access to a free clinic she probably would have had a pap smear every year and she wouldn't be dealing with infertility and premature menopause at the tender age of 23. George: You want to open a free clinic? Izzie: At Seattle Grace? Why? Bailey: Illness caught early means fewer unnecessary surgeries. Fewer unnecessary deaths. Izzie: But why? Bailey: Because. And if I can get the support that I need� Addison: I need suction. Oh no. Bailey: My God. Izzie: What? Addison: The tumor's invde through the cervix and into the bladder. Bailey: Which means she's a stage 4. Addison: We're not doing this operation today. Bailey: We've got to close her up. There's nothing more we can do here. (George freaks out a little and leaves the OR.) Addison: O'Malley? Izzie: It's his dad. (Izzie walks into the hall and sees Jillian's parents, hugging) (Steve's OR) Richard: How far did he run before his body had the good sense to pass out? Cristina: 12 miles. Richard: You got to be out of your mind. Cristina: Well he couldn't have expected a head cold and a couple of aspirin to do him in. Callie: He probably felt dizzy for miles before he passed out. He should have stopped and sat his ass down. Cristina: I get it. I can understand that. Richard: You can, can you? Cristina: Well surgery is the most competitive field in medicine. We're all here to win. Richard: It's a long road Dr. Yang. And when you get to the end of it, you're not going to care about winning. You're just going to be relieved that you made it to the finish line. (Derek enters the room where Meredith is) Derek: You told Sloan? Meredith: What? Derek: Mark Sloan. You told him Chief was stepping down. That I wanted the job. Meredith: I didn't know that was a secret. Derek: He was leaving Meredith. He was leaving town. Meredith: Ok, and now he's not? Derek: No, he's not. And you gave him a reason to stay. (He walks out and slams the door) Meredith: Derek... (Burke and Bailey are walking in the hall) Bailey: The commitment I'm asking for is only a few hours a week. Burke: I'm sorry, but I can't do with any more distractions right now. Bailey: You owe me. Burke: What? Bailey: When you had that tremor. You cut me out of surgery after surgery. Made me feel like I was the one who couldn't do her job. Made me doubt myself. You owe me this. Burke: You need someone who can provide leadership. Direction to the project. I'm not that man. Bailey: Not any more. If that's what you want to believe. (Jillian's room) Izzie: Over the next few months, Jilly's going to go through a lot�Radiation, Chemo. It's likely her condition will get worse. A lot worse. And she's going to need a lot of help. Rachel: Ok, well can you give me some names of doctors and medications cause I want to be ready. I want to know everything so I can do this. Do this right for her. Izzie: Rachel...you can't be everything. It's too hard. Jilly has parents who love her. They love her and they're here and she wants to go home. Rachel: No she doesn't. Izzie: She called them, not me. Rachel: She called? Izzie: Jilly is dying. Rachel: But I promised her. Cradle to grave. She's Jilly, I love her. Izzie: It's possible that the best thing you can do for her if you love her is to let her go. (Seattle scenes) (Outside of Richard's office) Burke: Are you waiting to see the Chief? Addison: Yes, you? Burke: Yeah. Addison: About? Burke: Oh you know...just...admin stuff. Addison: Yeah, me too. (Derek walks up) Derek: What are you doing here? Burke: Waiting to see the chief. Derek: You too? Addison: Yes, Derek. Both of us. Derek: Unbelievable. Addison: I'm unbelievable? The chief steps down and automatically you assume it's between you and Burke? Derek: You think that he's going to pick you? Addison: Well the fact that he hasn't tapped either one of you yet means he's got some other candidate in mind. (Mark walks up) Mark: What no one invited me to the party? (Richard walks up and they storm him, all throwing questions out at the same time) Richard: Stop, stop, stop. One at a time here. You, what's this all about? Mark: They all want to be Chief. And for the record, so do I. (They start arguing again) Richard: Ok Button it. All of you. I have had a perfect day. I went to the board this morning, and told them I was retiring. I saved a life. And now I'm off to see my wife. It has been a perfect day until you four fools tried to ruin it. A man can't be happy he's retiring around here without you vulture picking my bones." (Bailey walks up) Bailey: Chief...you're stepping down? Richard: As soon as they find a replacement for me, I'm stepping down as Chief of surgery. But I don't know when that'll be because at this point I don't see any front-runners. Excuse me. (They all start to argue again as he walks off as Bailey stands there mystified) (Bailey is at a nurse's station with Richard) Bailey: You didn't think to tell me this morning that you were planning to step down instead of sending me on this wild goose chase? Richard: Dr. Bailey, you need those clowns to sign off on your proposal because one of them may be chief of surgery in a month. It's hard to imagine, me more than anyone, but because you're not ready for the job, one of them's going to have to do it for the next few years. Bailey: Me? Richard: It's you in the chair eventually. That's who you are. You're going to have to get a new chair because you're short. You have short legs. But someday you are going to be chief of surgery. I wasn't sending you on a wild goose chase. I was trying to get you in the habit of doing things without me. (Mark, Addison, Burke and Derek are sitting in the hallway on the floor) Addison: He's really doing it. He's really retiring. Mark: One of us could be chief. Burke: No, one of us could be chief. (Pointing to him, Derek and Addison) You...I don't think so. Derek: Yeah. Addison: Yeah. Mark: Oh I could be chief. Derek: You're delusional. Addison: Mark Sloan, chief of surgery. That makes me vomit a little in my mouth. (Bailey walks up) Bailey: These are your letters of support for my free clinic. Sign them. Burke: Why do you want this clinic so badly. Derek: You're a surgeon. Bailey: Because I need something more. I know you all have your messy love lives, and your secrets and your silliness, But I want more. I need something to hold onto. I need a reason to believe that medicine can do more than stitch you up and send you away. I need to believe that medicine cannot only save lives, but change lives. I need...I need to believe to believe in something the way I used to believe in you all. Sign the papers. Sign the papers. Derek: You still need funding. (She stares him down and he complies. She leaves) Derek: The n*zi's back. (Jillian's room) Rachel: Hi. Go home. Jillian: Rach... Rachel: They're your parents, you love them and they're still here. You know what a big deal it is for them to get on a plane. Go home Jilly. Jillian: But I can't just leave you here. Rachel: Yes you can. Jillian: Rachel... Rachel: You can go back home. And you can put on your bonnet and you can get in the buggy and go to church and get baptized. You can die Amish. Jillian: No I can't do that. Rachel: Why cause you'll have to shun me? Don't worry about me. I will be living it up here with your curling iron and your cable TV and your entire DVD collection. I'll be okay here in the 21'st century. Jillian: I can't shun you. Rachel: You can. And you will. And I won't take no for an answer. Now say hello to your parents. (Jillian's parents enter) Jillian: Hi. Dad: Jilly. Jillian: Dad. Mom: (to Rachel) I will tell your parents that I saw you and that you are well and happy. And have grown into a fine woman. (They hug) (Seattle scenes) (Richard's house, He has a bunch of flowers and knocks on the door.) Adele: Richard, what are you doing here? Richard: These are for you. Adele: Richard, what are you doing here? Richard: I did it Adele. I'm retiring. And I gotta tell you, I didn't think I wanted to do it, but I'm relieved. I'm happy. Adele: When I told you I didn't have any more time to wait, I meant it. Richard: I know you did... Adele: That was months ago. Months ago I said "You are out of time with me." Richard: Adele...is there a man in my house? Adele: I'm so sorry Richard. But what did you expect? (She slams the door) (Izzie enters the room where George is) Izzie: I'm sorry. George: Why...I'm angry. What's wrong with having a lot of sex if it makes me feel better? Izzie: Do you? Feel better? George: You know how you felt when you were lying on the bathroom floor. Izzie: Maybe you're not supposed to feel better. George: Iz you can't help me. I know you want to. But you can't. You can't help me. Izzie: I have to let you go. George: Yeah. Izzie: Just one last thing. (She gives him a big hug) Life is short George. Life is short and it sucks a lot of the time. If being with Callie makes you happy then go be with Callie. (He leaves and Bailey comes in) Bailey: Hey. He going to be ok? Izzie: I think so. How's your clinic going? Bailey: I got my signatures. Which is a start. The Seattle Grace Free Clinic will exist. Izzie: The Denny Duquette Memorial Clinic. Bailey: What? Izzie: I have $8 million dollars. Bailey: Izzie Stevens. (Meredith's room, Derek enters) Derek: You left without me. And now you're not talking to me. I was a jerk. Sometimes boyfriends can be jerks. Doesn't mean you stop talking to them. You get that I'm saying I'm sorry right? Meredith: You yelled at me for no reason, then you walked away, and now you show up here. Derek: Of course I showed up. Why wouldn't I? You don't trust me? Meredith: I do. Derek: Ok well this is how it works. You fight sometimes, and somebody apologizes. Meredith: Well how am I supposed to know that? Derek: You've never done this before. Meredith: No, I've never done this before. Derek: Hmm. Ok, all right. Well this is�from now on, you can expect that I'm gonna show up. Even if I yell. Even if you yell. I'm always going to show up ok? Meredith: Ok. You are going to make an excellent Chief. Derek: Yeah. MVO: We all think we're going to be great. And we feel robbed when our expectations aren't met. (Addison walks up to Alex in the hall) Addison: Karev, I've got an ovarian torsion that needs emergent surgery. You in? Alex: Yeah. MVO: But sometimes our expectations sell us short. (Burke's house) Cristina: I was right. I swear, I really believe what I did was right. I don't want you to forgive me. Frankly...I'd...find it patronizing if you did because while I know I was right, you think I'm wrong. Which doesn't matter. Because, I'm in this. I'm in this for the long haul, and I'm in this to finish the race. So if that means I don't win this one, then fine. I don't win. You win. I'm talking. See I'm talking first, you win. MVO: Sometimes, the expected pales in comparison to the unexpected. Burke: Marry me. (Callie's hotel room) George: I don't want to waste another minute. Callie: I can't have sex with you again, George. I can't I just...enough with the sex. George: Since my dad died, I uh...I feel like someone ripped out my stomach and filled the hole with asphalt. I laugh every time that I remember I'm never going to talk to him again because it just sounds like the stupidest thing I ever heard. I can't believe it's real. But...every time I look at you...I feel better. It shocks me. It knocks my wind out but it's the truth. And I don't have to have sex with you. I'd be happy just to look at you from across the room. And even that�any piece of you, I mean hopefully all of you, that'd be the best thing...because I love you. Callie: George... (He kneels) George: Marry me. Will you marry me? (Burke and Cristina's) Burke: Marry me, Cristina Yang. MVO: You gotta wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the unexpected is just what keeps us steady...standing...still. (Callie's hotel room) George: Marry me. MVO: The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives.

GREY'S ANATOMY 3x14: Wishin' and Hopin' Original Airdate: 2/1/2007 Written by: Tony Phelan & Joan Rater Directed by: Julie Ann Robinson (Seattle scenes) MVO: As surgeons we live in a world of worst-case scenarios. We cut ourselves off from hoping for the best because too many times the best doesn't happen. But every now and then something extraordinary occurs ... (Cristina is sitting on her bed playing with her ring. George and Callie are in the elevator. Izzie and Bailey are outside of SGH looking at the sign that says Denny Duquette memorial clinic) MVO: ...and suddenly best-case scenarios seem possible. Izzie: Eight days, eight million dollars Bailey: And we are open for business. MVO: And every now and then...something amazing happens. (Ellis is at the nursing home, Meredith is watching her.) Mrs. Henry: She woke up this morning completely aware. She's her old self. It happens. Medically we don't know why. It's just a random gift. Meredith: So she's lucid? She remembers? Mrs. Henry: Pretty much everything except the last five years. And of course she doesn't realize she has Alzheimer's. We thought she should hear it from you. Meredith: So, she'll know me? I'm gonna walk in there and she'll know who I am? Mrs. Henry: She's been asking for you. MVO: And against our better judgment, we start to have hope. (Burke walks up to Richard at the nurse's station) Burke: Hey, Chief. I need a signature. I'd like to use the helicopter to transport a patient from Denver. (Derek walks up) Derek: Good morning, Chief. I found a way to fund a stereo tactic robot. I want to make sure you're on board before I... Richard: It's a little early in the morning for you two to be chasing me down. Burke: I'm gonna be doing a bloodless pulmonary valve translocation on this patient. Derek: This machine is an excellent source of revenue for the hospital (Mark and Addison are standing nearby) Mark: Aren't you gonna get in there? You wanna be Chief you gotta fight with the big boys. Addison: Oh, I intend to fight like a girl. I'll let them kll each other and then I'll be the only one left standing. Mark: And then there's me. There you go underestimating me again. Addison: Oh, it's not that I underestimate you, it's just that I don't think about you. At all! Mark: Well, you should. (He walks over to where Burke, Derek and Richard are standing) I was, uh, heading down to the clinic. It's opening today and I thought it might be nice to show Dr. Bailey a little support. Richard: Very thoughtful, Dr. Sloan. Think I'll join you. Gentlemen, if you'll excuse me. Derek: Certainly. (To Mark) Nicely done. Mark: Mm-hmm. (Ellis room at the nursing home) Ellis: Meredith! What is going on? When did you get back from Europe? Meredith: I went to Europe for 2 months but that was... Ellis: I've been sitting here, thinking about the fight we had. The things I said...I...I...I said some terrible things. Meredith: It's fine. Ellis: No! It's not. After you left I was upset. Did I have a breakdown? I must have had a nervous breakdown. I'm in a...is this a hospital? Because I...I can't remember anything for the past two months, Meredith. The last thing I remember is the fight we had. And...and listen, if you don't wanna go to medical school that is fine. It is your life, just...just take me home. Meredith: I went to medical school. Ellis: I wanna go home, Meredith. I need to go home. Meredith: You are home. I went to Europe, five years ago. You got sick. You have Alzheimer's. This is your home. You live here now. (Ellis breaks down) Ellis: No! No! Meredith: Mom. Ellis: No! (Ellis looks sick and starts to fall over) Meredith: Mom? Mom? Mom! (Meredith catches her) Meredith: Some body call 911. (Seattle scenes) (Burke walks into the ambulance bay where Ellis is just being unloaded) Meredith: She had sub-sternal chest pains... Ellis: ...chest pains and sycopy. My pace was in the 200's but that rate has resolved on it's own. (Burke helps Meredith out of the ambulance) Meredith: She's completely lucid. Burke: She's what... Meredith: She's aware. She's herself again. (They enter the hospital) Ellis: My god, is this... are we in Seattle Grace? Meredith: Yes mom, this is where I'm doing my residency. Burke: Your daughter is one of our finest interns. Following in your very big footsteps. Ellis: Do you know a Richard Webber? Is he still a doctor here? Burke: What the Chief? Ellis: Richard Webber's the Chief? Of surgery? (The clinic) Bailey: Hey, welcome to the Denny Duquette Memorial Clinic. Barring any surgical emergencies you will be working here today. (The room is empty) Cristina: Working on what? Bailey: Right now, Olivia will be familiarizing you with the protocol for the flu vaccine. (Alex is looking at something) Izzie: Oh! No, no, no. Don't...don't touch that. That was...79 dollars. Cristina: Oh, my God. I have got to get out of here. Burke has a bloodless pulmonary valve transplant patient flying in from Denver tomorrow. I should be preparing. Alex: You don't get to scrub in on that valve trans-location. Cristina: How do you know? Alex: Because I am. Cristina: He picked you? Olivia: You guys ready? Izzie: (To Bailey) Where is everybody? Bailey: Uh, Grey will be late. O'Malley should be back from vacation. Izzie: No, no, no. The patients, the underserved, uninsured population that we're supposed to be helping. Bailey: The underserved, uninsured will come. You'll see. Just watch the door. They will come through it. Izzie: I can't wait...for the first patient. It's gonna be amazing. It's gonna be amazing what Denny's money can do. Right? Bailey: Just watch the door, Stevens. (Izzie stares at the door. It opens and Mark and Richard enter) Mark: Dr. Bailey, congratulations on the opening of the clinic. Richard: It is open, isn't it? (They both look at Izzie) Richard: Is Stevens all right? Bailey: She watching the door, sir. Richard: Ok, then. Izzie: Someone's coming. (George and Callie enter) Izzie: Damn it! Bailey: O'Malley, welcome back. You're late. Richard: Is O'Malley all right? George: (Proudly) We got married in Vegas! (Everyone stops what they are doing and looks at Callie and George) George: We're married. Alex: (Laughing) Dude, she's Callie O'Malley. (Izzie is talking to George off to the side) Izzie: It's fast, you know? It seems really very fast. Are you...are you even happy? Callie: We're incredibly happy. Izzie: Oh yay! Well great! Yay! (George and Callie kiss) George: Show her the ring. Callie: Oh. Izzie: Oh! That's so great. Tiny diamonds are great because you know no one will ever try to steal it. (They both look at Izzie and everyone in the room has looks of disbelief on their faces.) Bailey: Ok, that's it. Yang, Burke needs you in Cardio. O'Malley the chief has a surgical patient coming into the pit. Stevens, Karev, go find me some patients. I don't care where you get them just get them. Bailey: Congratulations. Callie: Thank you. George: Thanks. (Bailey walks away) Callie: Ok, we've been out of our Vegas hotel room bubble for six hours and I don't like it. George: It's gonna be fine. We're married. (They kiss) Callie: We're married. (They kiss again) Callie: All right (George leaves and Bailey and Olivia just look at Callie) (George is walking through the hall with Richard) George: So, chief. We're a couple of married men. Richard: Uh, Adele and I are...getting a divorce. George: Uh...um...I didn't... Richard: That's life, O'Malley. That's life. (They enter a patients room) Now, this patient. I removed a large tumor from her colon eight months ago. Since then she's been under going chemo and radiation. We thought she had it bat. (A man enters) Vincent: Excuse me, are you the doctors for Marina Wagner? Richard: Yes, you brought her in? Vincent: I woke up this morning she was barely breathing. You think this could be food poisoning? Cause we had sushi yesterday but I feel fine. Richard: Could be complications from the radiation. Vincent: What do you mean radiation? Richard: From her cancer treatment. Vincent: She doesn't have cancer. I'm her boyfriend, I'd know. (Richard looks out the window and sees Ellis being wheeled by) Richard: O'Malley get a CBC, a Chem-19 and a triple contrast abdominal CT. Excuse me. George: Yes, sir. (Richard walks into the hall) Richard: What? Is she all right? Meredith: She's... Ellis: Richard Webber. My god you've aged. Richard: Ellis? Ellis: I was having arrhythmias, they wanted to do tests and...I hear you're the chief of surgery now. That's wonderful. Richard: Yes, um...but I'm stepping down soon. Ellis: Stepping down? Well, I can only assume that was Adele's idea. Meredith... Meredith: I'll be right there, Mom. Go ahead. (Ellis is wheeled away) She's lucid. She woke up this morning with her memory back. They say it's temporary. Richard: My God! Well, obviously, don't worry about work today. I mean, you need to be with her. I mean, this time...it's a gift. Meredith: It's a gift. Right. (Meredith enters the elevator where her mom is waiting) (Burke is talking with Cristina at the nurse's station) Burke: Meredith's mother had some runs of SVT. I'm ordering an Echo. And...she's lucid. Cristina: What? Burke: It happens but it won't last. Cristina: Is Meredith ok? Burke: Seems fine but...her mother's gonna need the best care we have to offer and you Dr. Yang are the best. (She smiles) You're still not wearing the ring. I would like an answer. It's been over a week. Cristina: I told you, it's under advisement. Burke: Oh, do you not like the ring? Cristina: It's a ring. It's a three-carat, diamond cut, platinum. It's...it's the ring. Burke: Then what? Cristina: Are you using the surgery tomorrow to pressure me into giving you an answer? Is that why I'm not scrubbing in? Burke: I need to give the other interns a chance. Cristina: Why? Burke: The Echo please, Dr. Yang. (Alex and Izzie sit down next to a guy in the waiting room) Izzie: Hey. You been waiting long? Man: Almost an hour? Izzie: Mmm. Man: Are you my doctor? Izzie: I can be. We have a clinic right outside those doors. No wait. Alex: What's wrong with you? Man: It hurts when I pee. Alex and Izzie: Oh! Alex: We can help with that. Izzie: Yeah, it's easy. It's nothing. We could have you outta here in less than an hour. Man: Are you hitting on me. Izzie: We need patients. You need doctors. And we just happen to be surgeons. Man: You think I need surgery? Alex: You never know. Izzie: It's free. A free clinic. Man: But my co-pays only ten bucks. Izzie: That's lunch. (A woman coughs nearby) Alex: Sounds like TB. Izzie: Yeah. Very contagious. (Cristina is doing Ellis' Echo) Ellis: You and Meredith are good friends? I can tell. Because you're afraid to look at me. As if I might ask you some personal question about her and you'll accidentally slip. But you don't do anything accidentally, do you? Has Meredith chosen a specialty? Cristina: That's a personal question. Ellis: For surgeons, the most personal question you can ask. It tells you who they are. Cristina: My mother would wanna know whether I had a boyfriend. Ellis: You're mother sounds like a frivolous woman. Cristina: If I chose cardio-thoracic's, what would that say about me? Ellis: Heart surgeons are the know-it-alls. They're the most ambitious, the most driven. They want it all and they want it now. And they don't want anything getting in their way. Meredith says I'm part of an Alzheimer's research study. I want a neuro consult with the doctor who put me in the trial. (Cristina walks into the ambulance bay where Meredith is standing) Cristina: Hey, Mer. I've been looking for you. Burke has me on your mom. Are you ok? Meredith: I'm avoiding her. I'm avoiding the gift. Cristina: Yeah, well, uh...your gift wants to meet Derek. Meredith: What? What did you say? Cristina: No, no, no. Not Derek your boyfriend, Derek the neurosurgeon. She's gonna know that's he's your boyfriend anyway. She has ways. I'm kind of in love with her, by the way. Meredith: she has that effect on people who aren't her daughter. (Izzie wheels by with the man who hurts when it pees) Izzie: Hey! I heard about your mother. That's unbelievable. Meredith: Yeah. It's a gift. Cristina: She avoiding her. Izzie: Mer, she's your mother. And she's really here. Cristina: This is your chance, you should talk to her. Izzie: You should spend some time with her. Meredith: She has a very long history of being disappointed in me. Izzie: You're a doctor now. Parental disappointment ends with medical degree. Man: Could we get moving? It hurts when I pee. Cristina: Are you stealing patients from the ER? Izzie: Yes. But only because I have to know that I did not spend my entire inheritance on an empty room with empty beds. Because if I did that I might go crazy and George called dibs on all the crazy this week. Do you think Callie's pregnant? Man: I'm going back to the ER. Izzie: Ok. Just keep your pants on. We're going. Meredith: What...what...what...what? What's going on? Cristina: Oh, yeah. Bambi got married. (Meredith motions for George to come out of Marina's room) George: Everything ok? Are you off today? Meredith: You got married? George: Yeah, I did. It was uh...I know it was impulsive. Meredith: Well was it good impulsive or was it Meredith impulsive? Because if it was Meredith impulsive maybe I can help get you out of it. George: No...no it's a good thing. Meredith: Good. George: It's good, um...(They hug) but, uh...thanks for the backup. Meredith: Your welcome. Congratulations, George. George: Thank you. (George goes back in the room just as Ellis walks up) Ellis: Are you planning on coming to talk to me anytime soon? (Alex is pushing a patient past the desk where Addison is sitting. Addison is staring at him with "dirty" in her eyes. Callie notices and comes over.) Callie: Uh, you know those cartoons where there's a bear, uh, or whatever and it's starving and it looks at a table. And the table turns into this delicious cooked turkey with like, lines of deliciousness coming of it... Addison: Oh, I was not looking at him like that. Because he is the help and I am not going to be sleeping with the help. Callie: I married the help. Addison: What? Callie: We went to Vegas. My idea, I embrace the trashy. Addison: That's...not that I'm not happy for you but...why? Married, so fast? Callie: You know those cartoons where there's a bear and it's starving, and it looks at a cute intern. Addison: Well, congratulations. Callie: Thank you. Thank you. Oh it's small I know, it's small. Addison: It's beautiful. Callie: You think so? Addison: Yes. Callie: Yes. (Ellis' room) Ellis: So, tell me about yourself. Meredith: Well... Ellis: What's your life like? I...I really do wanna know you, Meredith. Meredith: Well, I have a boyfriend. Ellis: Does he understand the demands of your career? Cause not all men do. They say they do upfront but they... Meredith: He's great. He's a doctor too, so he gets it. Ellis: Good. Meredith: He's actually... Ellis: Have you chosen a specialty? Meredith: No, it's...it's still early. Ellis: Cristina's already chosen cardio-thoracics. Meredith: Yeah, well, I guess I'm just waiting to be inspired. I'm happy now. I feel like I know who I am plus I think when you have someone in your life that you love, you really love, I think that's...I don't know I just...I'm really happy. Ellis: What happened to you? Meredith: What do you mean? Ellis: You're happy? You're happy now? The Meredith I knew was a force of nature, passionate, focused, a fighter. What happened to you? You've gone soft. Stammering about a boyfriend and saying you're waiting to be inspired. You're waiting for inspiration? Are you kidding me? I have a disease for which there is no cure. I think that would be inspiration enough. Meredith: Mom... Ellis: Listen to me, Meredith. Anyone can fall in love and be blindly happy. But not everyone can pick up a scalpel and save a life. I raised you to be an extraordinary human being. So imagine my disappointment when I wake up after five years and discover that you're no more than ordinary. What happened to you? (George is in Marina's room, drawing her blood) Vincent: We live in the same building, so...I'd see her in the laundry room and uh, she's really sexy when she folds clothes. (George is drawing her blood, his hand is shaking.) Vincent: Once we started dating it was like boom. We got really serious, really fast. Now I'm just kinda like...I don't even know her middle name. Trying to fill out these forms and I'm stumped on the first question. George: Rose. That's her middle name. Rose. (George looks sick) (Meredith and Derek are walking through the hall) Meredith: She's charming, she's fabulous and then suddenly she's the enemy. Derek: I'm meeting the enemy? Meredith: Just don't get personal. Derek: You're being ridiculous. Meredith: I am not being ridiculous. Derek: Ok, it's going to be fine. Meredith: Just be careful, she has ways. (He enters Ellis' room) (George walks past Olivia in the hall) Olivia: Hi, George. George: Hi. Olivia: Are you ok? George: Yeah. Olivia: You seem kind of shaky, and sweaty, and pale. Is it the marriage? Are you totally regretting it? George: No, the marriage is fine. (He hands her Marina's blood) Do you mind...taking that to, uh...taking the blood work to the lab for me. Olivia: Sure. George: Thanks. I think I need to sit down. Olivia: George, if you need to talk... George: Thanks. (Callie walks up) Callie: Hey. Are you ok? You're sweating. George: I'm good. What's your middle name? Callie: It's bad. I don't tell anyone. George: Come on. We're married and I don't even know you're middle name. Callie: Ok, I knew it. It's your weird and judgey friends. You let them get to you. George: No, it's...I don't...I don't know your middle name. I can't...God, I can barely breathe. Callie: You know what, you didn't know my middle name last week and you could breathe just fine. George: What? (Ellis' room) Ellis: What about a functional MRI now, while I'm lucid? Derek: Mmm. An MRI's not gonna show us anything new. No test is gonna help us understand what's going on. Ellis: So in five years you've made no advances and there is nothing else you can for me. I don't know how you do it. Day in and day out. Work with people with this awful disease. Derek: Oh. Actually I'm not an Alzheimer's specialist. I just took a special interest in this case...because of Meredith. Ellis: You're what happened to her. Derek: I'm sorry... Ellis: I thought you were here for me. To offer me some hope, to tell me about some new treatment, but you're here for her. Derek: Dr. Grey. Ellis: An attending? A neurosurgeon? No wonder she's so unfocused. Derek: I don't think you understand... Ellis: Oh, I understand. I understand perfectly. I've seen men like you before. thrat by a woman that's their equal. You just want someone to admire you. And you don't care about the damage you do to her along the way. (George enters the clinic) George: I need to lay down. Izzie: No, no, no. Wait, hey. Buster, do you know how much it costs to have...these linens laundered? George: I'm sick, shaky and sweaty. My mouth is dry, my body aches. Izzie: Fine. Bailey: Uh, Karev, replace O'Malley in the OR. Alex: Yes. (Alex enters Marina's OR) Alex: So, this is Marina Wagner, your colon cancer patient? Richard: Karev, where the hell's O'Malley? Alex: Curled up in a ball in the clinic. Richard: He ok? Alex: Uh, he's married. Richard: Right. Ok, Boki, ten blade. (The clinic) Izzie: Stolen, non-emergent ER cases and a sick hospital staff. This is what eight million dollars buys you. Bailey: Dr. Stevens, I swear on my life, if I hear you say eight million dollars one more time... Izzie: It's not about the money. It's...it's Denny...it's his legacy. It's...I was looking for meaning. This was supposed to be meaningful. Bailey: It will be meaningful. Izzie: Eight million dollars worth? (A man and his daughter enter) Mr. Hanson: Excuse me, are you doctors? Can I...? Are you the doctor? Bailey: Yes, we are. Izzie: Are you a patient? Like an actual, free clinic patient? Mr. Hanson: Not me, my daughter. Izzie: So your daughter's sick. Kelly: I'm not sick. Can we please go? Mr. Hanson: Kelly...finds...suddenly...that she has a need for (he pulls out a box of tampons)...these products and uh, we were hoping that you might show her how to use them. (George is in bed in the clinic and Olivia is nearby) Olivia: George you're married. You should be happy, you don't look happy. George: I'm sick, Olivia. (Bailey is helping the lab tech into bed) Bailey: All right...you can...you should go home O'Malley. Clearly, whatever you have is contagious. George: Aren't you from the lab? Lab Tech: Yeah, I feel like crap. George: Is that the lady you gave Marina's blood to? Olivia: Uh, yeah. George: And you all feel shaky and nauseas? Lab Tech: It's awful. George: She's toxic. Olivia: Callie, yeah. A lot of us feel that way. George: No, the patient's blood is toxic. It's making us sick. Has the Chief started, uh, Marina's operation? Olivia: They were wheeling her up as I came down. George: What's the extension for OR 1? (The scene flips to OR 1. The phone is ringing but no one is answering. The camera pans around to show at least five people on the floor. Richard and Alex are among them.) (Outside the OR, the doctors and staff have all been removed. Derek and Burke are talking) Derek: The patient's blood is apparently highly toxic. Any contact is dangerous. No body goes in there until we figure out what the hell is going on. (He walks toward Richard) How's he doing? Addison: He's...but his BP's starting to sab. He's doing better on oxygen. It's a good thing he got out of there when he did. (Nurse walks up) Nurse: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: What is it? Nurse: Can you sign this. (Meredith walks up) Meredith: I just heard. How can I help? Derek: You're off duty. You should be with your mother. Meredith: I don't wanna spend time with my mother. The Chief is down, Alex is down. I would like to help. Derek: Dr. Grey. You wanna help, talk to your resident. (Derek walks over to where Burke and Mark are) Derek: What do you got? Burke: They found an herbal supplement in her purse. The lab guys think it combined with the chemo chemicals and turned her blood into some kind of neuro-toxin. Mark: We're lucky they're not all dad. Derek: The only reason she's alive is because she's intubated. Burke: Who got them out of there? Derek: O'Malley. (Callie pushes past the boys to where George is on a bed) Callie: George. George: Callie. She was toxic. Her blood was toxic. It's not our marriage. Callie: You thought our marriage was toxic? Addison: (To the boys) Ok, all our people are being treated. Now, what do we do about her. (Marina is still intubated) (Cristina enters Ellis' room) Cristina: Dr. Grey. Your holter monitor shows your having multiple runs of tachycardia every hour. So, Dr. Burke would like to do a radio-plation. Ellis: Why would he recommend surgery when medication can keep it under control? Because Alzheimer's patients aren't always compliant with their meds. Cristina: And...apparently, Meredith says, your particularly difficult. Ellis: I could elect not to treat it at all. Cristina: Your stress test shows coronary artery disease. That coupled with the tachy arrhythmias could cause too much stress on your heart. Which would, eventually... Ellis: What would you do? If the thing that defines who you are, was taken away. Tell Dr. Burke...I don't want the surgery. Cristina: I'm...I'm very sorry, Dr. Grey. But technically that decision isn't yours. It's Meredith's. (Clinic) Izzie: This is a maxi pad, heavy flow day. Mini pad pretty self-explanatory. Just...peel the label, and stick it. And the tampon, we've already gone over so...are we clear on everything? Kelly, I understand that...you're a little mortified that your dad dragged you in here but you can you just talk...or nod, or something. Kelly: I get it, ok. (Bailey enters) Bailey: How's it going with our very first patient? Izzie: Kelly's a woman. Can I just go to the gallery and learn something. If that's ok with you. Bailey: Go ahead. (Izzie leaves) Bailey: Uh, Mr. Hanson, if you could go to the front desk and fill out some paperwork, I can get you out of there. Mr. Hanson: Of course, of course. Thank you. Since my wife died I...I've been in the woods a little with Kelly. (Mr. Hanson leaves) Bailey: Are you ok, Kelly? Any cramps? Cause a heating pad... Kelly: Could I be pregnant if I had sex last week? Like before the period thing started. Cause I did and it would really suck if I'm pregnant. Cause now the guys being a real jerk and he's totally ignoring me at school. So, I really hope I can't be pregnant. I can't, right? Anyway, you could, like, answer me before my dad gets back. (Ellis' room) Meredith: I'm not sure refusing treatment is what you wanna do. Ellis: Apparently what I want doesn't matter. It isn't even legally binding. So it's really about what you want, Meredith. You're in charge. Meredith: Do you think I like making these decisions for you? Do you think it's fun to get calls from the nursing home asking me whether I was planning on giving the nurse, who changes you every morning, a Christmas tip? But I do it, because you have managed to alienate every one else in your life. And I am the only one, so I have to step up and do it. You wanna know why I'm so unfocused, so ordinary? You wanna know what happened to me? You! You happened to me. Ellis: Then let me refuse the surgery. Meredith: No! Ellis: Why not? Meredith: Because klling my mother is not gonna be another thing that happens to me. (Meredith storms out and slams the door) (Burke and Derek are putting on special suits) Derek: These suits are airtight. Burke: Yeah, these packs circulate the air inside. Mark: These batteries haven't been charging long. I'm guessing you've got about 30 minutes before they die and you have to come out. Addison: Oh, my God. The anesthesia's wearing off. She's waking up. Mark: Thirty minutes starting now. Addison: She's fighting intubation. Burke: We go inside before these seals are secure, we wouldn't last five minutes and she will die. Mark: These guys are two minutes out. Addison: She doesn't have two minutes. Mark: Addison (Addison grabs a mask and rushes into the OR, Marina is fighting the intubation.) Mark: Get the hell out of there. Addison: She's awake, Mark. She's awake and open on the table. I need to know her weight so I can dose her with the propocal. Mark: She looks about 60 kilos. Addison: It's ok. You're ok. It's ok. Got it. (Addison looks sick and rushes towards the door. She knocks things over on her way out and Mark catches her as she collapses at the door) Mark: I gotcha, I gotcha. (Derek and Burke enter the OR) (Ellis' room, her monitor is beeping) Nurse: Looks like SVT. Cristina: Push 10 of adenocine and page Dr. Burke. Nurse: He's already gone into surgery. I'll get the adenocine. Ellis: Carotid massage. Do the carotid massage. Cristina: Carotid massage can regulate the heart and stop SVT. Ok, hold on. Hold on. Hold on please. Hold on, hold on. Ok. Ok, ok, ok, ok. Ellis: You're good. Sharp under pressure. You'll make an extraordinary surgeon. Cristina: Dr. Grey, I need to ask you. Will it get in my way? Can I have both. Can I be a great surgeon and have a life? Cause there is this great man who just asked me to marry him and I know you tried to have both and you split up with Meredith's dad and I know this is none of my business. Ellis: It is none of your business. And I didn't try hard enough. Cristina: Thank you. (Richard is outside the OR) Meredith: Are you feeling better? Richard: I will be once my patient is off the table. Look at these two, a heart surgeon and a neurosurgeon performing a bowel resection. You think the world stops when you stop but it just keeps on going. People perform your surgeries better than you could. The next generation comes up and you're scared you'll be forgotten. Your mother stopped for five years and you became someone. Meredith: According to her I didn't. According to her I'm a disappointment. Richard: In a perfect would she'd be able to tell you she was proud of you. But it's not a perfect world. And your mothers not a perfect woman. Meredith: I think the person she'd most like to see right now is you. Richard: The only thing your mother wants to hear right now is that I regret staying with Adele. It's the only gift I could give her. And I can't tell her that. That's not true. (Inside Marina's OR) Burke: They won't fit. Richard: Stop right there. The bowels swelled, they won't fit. How much time do you have? Mark: Eight minutes. Richard: Ok, listen to me. And do everything I say. (Kelly's room in the clinic) Bailey: Kelly, your pregnancy test is negative and you're clean for STD's. Mr. Hanson: Oh, thank God. Kelly: Great! Thanks to you I'm grounded for the rest of my life. Mr. Hanson: Kelly, be polite. Bailey: I'm sorry, sir. But polite doesn't seem to be getting you to very far. Kelly, you're dad told me you lost your mother a few years ago and I want to say how sorry I am. I'm sure you have a million questions and I'm sure if you're mother were here she would have more eloquent answers than I do but her and I would actually be saying the same thing. Which is, if you keep going the way you're going, you will get an STD. You will get pregnant. You will increase your chances of getting cervical cancer. You're not being smart and you're too young for anyone to expect you to be smart the way you need to be when you're having sex. Which means you're too young to be having it. Kelly: I thought he liked me. Bailey: Oh honey, I know you did. I know you did. (Kelly starts crying and Mr. Hanson hugs her) (Callie walks over to George) Callie: Ok, you're gonna live. George: Callie, wait. I was a little bit heroic in there. I thought you'd be proud of me. Callie: Proud? You were poisoned and you thought it was about me. George: It felt like an anxiety attck. Callie: About me. You see we were fine when we were in our Vegas bubble. When it was just room service and pay cable and us. It was all bliss but then you get around your weird and judgey friends for one day and suddenly your wracked with uncertainty. Toxic gas level uncertainty. I guess it was too much to just hope you'd stand up for me. George: Callie. Callie: And my middle name is Iphegenia. Ok? I can't wait to hear what your pals have to say about that. (Alex is being examined, Addison is watching him) Alex: So that was pretty cool, what you just did. Go in and putting her back under. Addison: Cool or stupid? Take your pick. (They share a moment) Addison: Ok, all right, I gotta go. (Gallery of Marina's OR) Izzie: What's going on? Meredith: Chief figured out the anesthesiologist didn't have time to drop an NG tube so now they have to place one and decompress and repack her intestines and close. And they're about to run out of air. Izzie: Holy crap! This so beats Tampon training. (Richard and Mark are in the gallery) Richard: Preston, you'll need to milk the bowel to get out the excess fluid. Pack her and wrap her and get her sab for transport. (Derek looks sick) Meredith: How's George? Izzie: Medically, he's fine. Emotionally, he's a little stunted if you ask me. You don't marry the rebound girl, am I right? Cristina: You don't marry anyone on a whim. Meredith: He needs our support. Izzie: He doesn't need us. He's got his Vegas show wife. Cristina: Oh. Mark: Chief they're at 32 minutes, you gotta pull them out Richard: How you doing on air? (Burke looks sick as well) Burke: I'm out. Derek: You go. I'll be right there... Burke: Alone? You can't. (Burke passes out, Derek tries to help him and passes out as well.) Cristina: That's not good. (Scrub room, Richard has already done in to pull Derek and Burke out. Izzie, Cristina and Meredith are scrubbed in) Richard: Ok, damage control. We still have to pack her and wrap her so that she's s*ab for transport. We work in shifts. One doctor at a time, no one stays in for more than 20 seconds. Dr. Sloan do you want to go first? Mark: I'm not going in there. Richard: What? Mark: It would be irresponsible for the remaining healthy attending to expose himself to the neuro-toxin. A neuro-toxin whose long-term effects we're still unaware of. So, I'm staying in here. Cristina: I can swim three lengths of my parents pool underwater. Richard: All right, you're up Dr. Yang. Let's get her masked. Sloan give her the lap pads. You're gonna wet them and pack the cavity. (Cristina enters the OR) If you feel faint get out. Come on Yang, hurry. (Cristina exits) Cristina: I packed the wound. Richard: Dr. Stevens, Cristina: I couldn't get...I couldn't... Richard: Remove the drape and secure the plastic along the sides. It's gotta be tight. (Izzie enters) Hurry. Come on Stevens. Come on. (Izzie leaves) Izzie: I couldn't...the seal it twisted. Richard: Ok, the seal needs to be as close to airtight as possible. It'll inflate and then you'll know it's secure. (Meredith enters) Come on Grey. Come on. (The seal inflates) (Outside Marina's room) Vincent: She's still toxic? George: She's on CRRT. It's a type of dialysis to remove toxins from the blood. You should be able to go in, in a few hours. (Marina wakes up) Vincent: (On the intercom) You woke up. You're gonna be ok. Marina: I was hoping you would never have to know about any this. I thought all the bad stuff in my life was over when I met you. Vincent: It is Marina Rose. Marina: That's my name. (Richard is in the ER talking with the doctors) Richard: Heroic work all of you, heroic. Dr. Sloan lets check on our patient. (Mark and Richard walk away) Derek: How come we do all the work and he gets all the glory? Addison: Because he's Mark. (Clinic, Izzie enters) Izzie: I'm sorry I left. I...it was...I got to do damage control on the toxic woman. Bailey: Good for you. Izzie: You ever get any patients? Bailey: Just that one. Izzie: One. Bailey: Eight million dollars worth of one. Lock up for me. (Ellis' room. Richard enters) Richard: I heard you're having surgery tomorrow. Ellis: Do you...do I know who Meredith is? Do I at least recognize Meredith? Richard: You know she's someone important. Someone who loves you. Ellis: You look out for her, cause she's got so much more to learn and I won't be able to teach her. Richard: I'll look out for her. Ellis: I wish I could go back. I'd do everything so differently. I'd fighter harder for you. I think if I'd fought for you... Richard: We would have had a wonderful life together Ellis. Ellis: You think so? Richard: I do. We would have done our fellowship here. And then you would have fought me for chief and probably one and I wouldn't have minded cause we'd have kids at home. Ellis: We have kids? Richard: Meredith would have needed a brother and sister. Kids need family. Ellis: We would have been a family. Richard: Probably bought that big house on Parker, the one with the barn. That's a good place for a family. Ellis: And I would have been happy just like Meredith says she's happy. And that would have changed everything. Maybe...I would be fine and we could grow old together and life would be so perfectly ordinary. Richard: Yeah. Ellis: My life is so unfinished. It's unfinished and I'm unfinished. Richard: No, Ellis. Don't think that. Just close your eyes and think of the family, of the house. Ellis: And you there every night to come home to. Richard: And me there. I'm there. (Locker room) Cristina: I'm super scrubbed. I'm minus my epidermis. Meredith: I still feel all fumey. (Callie enters) Izzie: Hey. It's the little women. So what are your plans now? You're not moving in are you? Callie: Nice. George: Wait, Callie. Callie: No, it's... George: Wait. (To Izzie) Unbelievable. You people. You're supposed to be my friends, my closest friends. Callie is an important part of my life now. If you want to drive her away and your masters at it, you'll do it. But if she's gone I'm gone. She's my wife. Calliope Iphegenia Torres is my wife. (Izzie starts to laugh) George: Don't you dare. Izzie: Ok. (Seattle scenes) MVO: As doctors, we're trained to give our patients just the facts. But what are patients really want to know is. Will the pain ever go away? Will I feel better? Am I cured? (Addison and Mark are having sex in a darkened hotel room) Mark: I thought you said you didn't think about me. Addison: I don't. I am actively not thinking about you, right now. MVO: What are patients really want to know is... (Cristina is laying her bed, she walks to the kitchen where Burke is) MVO: ...is their hope. Cristina: I don't do rings. (She sets the ring on the counter) Cristina: Don't expect me to suddenly change. I'm a surgeon just like you. And we'll have money, we can hire a wife. Burke: Are you saying yes? Cristina: Yeah. Burke: I'm not letting you scrub in tomorrow. Cristina: Well, I'm not wearing the ring. Burke: Ok. Cristina: Ok, then. (They hug and start cheering and laughing) Burke: Yes! Ok, ok, ok! (Meredith is at her mom's room) MVO: But inevitably there are times when you find yourself in the worst-case scenario. Richard: Meredith... Meredith: I just have to say this. The reason I want you to have the surgery is because I have this hope that in a year or two years or five, they're gonna have a breakthrough. They're gonna find a cure for Alzheimer's and you and I will have another chance, to get to know each other. You will have a chance to get to know me, to see that I am not even remotely ordinary. So, I wish you would have the surgery But it's up to you, Mom. It's your life. Ellis: You remind me of my daughter. Richard: About an hour ago. One minute she was here, the next...I'm so sorry. Meredith: Me too. MVO: When the patient's body has betrayed them and all the science we have to offer has failed them. When the worst-case scenario comes true, clinging to hope is all we have left.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x14 - Wishin' and Hopin'"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x15: Walk on Water Original Airdate: 2/8/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Rob Corn (Meredith is sitting in the bathtub) MVO: Disappearances happen in science, disease can suddenly fade away. Tumors go missing. We open someone up to discover the cancer is gone. It's unexplained, it's rare, bit it happens. We call it misdiagnosis say we never saw it, any explanation but the truth. (Meredith sinks under that water in the tub) MVO: That life is full of vanishing acts. If something that we didn't know we had disappears, do we miss it? (Derek enters the bathroom) Derek: Meredith. (He pulls her out of the water) Meredith, what are you doing? (George's room is empty, Izzie is standing in the hall when Meredith and Derek walk out) Meredith: I was taking a bath. Derek: That's not a bath. I know what a bath looks like. Meredith: Drop it. Derek: Look, your mother Meredith: Drop it. Derek: Your mother...she was lucid and she said things and now she's... Meredith: Gone. Everything's back to normal, it's not a big deal. Derek: Yeah, except she's having heart surgery today. (Meredith sighs and Derek cups her face.) Derek: Hey, you want me to talk to the Chief? I know you have that triage thing today but he'll give you the day off. Meredith: Stop! I do not need rescuing. Derek: You would have drowned in the bathtub had I not been there. Meredith: I'm a surgeon. I do the rescuing. You are not my knight in shining...whatever. Derek: Oh, so we're gonna fight because I pulled you out of the tub. Meredith: You have a place. You could sleep at it. And then you don't have to pull me out of the bathtub. You're everywhere, all the time, saying things. Derek: This is the happy ever after part and in the happily ever after part the guy is there, all the time, saying things. And the girls love it. Meredith: Go to work. I'll see you there. Derek: Just for the record, I am you knight in shining...whatever. (He kisses her) Derek: (To Izzie) Morning. Meredith: I did not try to drown myself in the bathtub. Izzie: Hey, I ate everything out of the fridge last night, everything, including a tub of butter. There's no judgment here. Meredith: You ever feel like you were just disappearing? Izzie: All the time. Meredith: Why can't I just be that happily ever after person? Why can't I believe in that? Izzie: I don't know what I believe in anymore. (Seattle scenes) (Cristina and Burke are on the stairs) Cristina: We're not telling...people. Burke: I haven't told anyone. Cristina: I know, I know. Just...don't. Burke: I'm not going to...yet. Cristina: I just...I need to tell my friends here first. Burke: I have friends here. (Cristina just stares at him) Shepherd. Cristina: Oh, no you can't tell Shepherd. You cannot tell Shepherd until I've told Meredith. It will be a thing. Burke: You act like this is a disaster. But the world won't implode if people know. Cristina: I will tell them, today. Just...wait. (Richard is in the elevator, Addison is already there when Derek enters) Derek: Morning. (He stops to stare at Richard) What's different? Richard: Nothing. Addison: Leave him be. Derek: What happened to your hair? Richard: Nothing. (Mark and Burke enter the elevator) Burke: What happened to your hair? Addison: Leave him be. Mark: You dyed it. Derek: But why? (Addison smacks Derek) Derek: Ow! Addison: Leave him be. Derek: What are you doing? What? Burke: Ok, but why? Richard: Men who have gray hair are noticed less then men who don't. Derek: By who? Richard: Well... Burke: By the ladies... (Mark laughs) Derek: Looks good Chief. Burke: Ladies will love it. Mark: Very natural. Addison: He is alone, all alone. Do any of you even know what that's like? (Points to Burke) Lives with Cristina (Points to Derek) Dates the perfect 12-year-old (Points to Mark) Man whore! His wife left him, after 25 years of marriage. So if the man wants to dye his hair for the ladies leave him be. Leave him be. (Derek mouths ok) (Bailey and Callie are in the clinic) Callie: It's weird. Weird. It's weird right? Bailey: I need more triage tear tags. Callie: Working with somebody I'm married to is weird. I mean, I'm his boss and his wife. At work, I'm giving him orders. In bed, he's giving me... Bailey: Stop! Right there! I don't need to know this. I'm tired, I'm busy. While I will concede, you and O'Malley have some challenges to overcome. I'm asking you to remember that this day is a marathon and my mind can only hold what it needs to know. Your sex life cannot be held in my mind today. Ever! It cannot be held in my mind ever. Never. Callie: Whatever (Sydney enters) Sydney: Sydney Heron here to land a hand. Hey! Hi! Hello! Oh Miranda, hey. Nice clinic, very nice. Bailey: Is it? Sydney: I mean real nice, real cheerful. No better to distinguish your self for chief resident then to open a multi million dollar clinic. Smart thinking, strategic. Bailey: Chief resident? Sydney: I myself have used the time to master several complex surgical procedures. But, this is, um, another way to go. Bailey: What is she talking about? Callie: Chief resident. Sydney: Chief resident. Yeah for next year, the one 5th year resident that rules all residents. Oh she...ok, she's cute. She's acting like she didn't know about it. Cute! Bailey: I'm not cute. Sydney: I'm on to you. Ok. I'm a competitor. Grr! Bailey: I bite! Sydney: Ok, well. I'll just wait for you in the pit. (Meredith is at the nurse's station outside her mom's room. Ellis looks agitated and they stare at each other for a moment. Meredith walks away.) (Meredith and Cristina are in the locker room getting ready for the start of their shift. Meredith looks angry and irritated. Cristina on the other hand is smiling) Meredith: What? Cristina: Nothing. (Cristina looks disappointed that Meredith isn't happy. She is still smiling.) Meredith: What? Cristina: Ok, cranky. Forget it. Alex: Am I the only one that thinks this triage test is a waste of time? There's a patistoplasty on the board. I had Sloan all prepped to let me scrub in. Izzie: George, hey. George: Hey. Izzie: How's it going? George: Good. Izzie: You like living in a hotel? George: Yeah. It's good. Izzie: Cause your rooms still there. Next to mine. George: Aw, Izzie. Izzie: I'm just saying. If you don't like...the hotel, you can always just move right back in. George: You think I'm this boy that you need to save, I get that, but...And it would be sweet, if it weren't so condescending. Alex: Seriously is it too much to ask to be performing actual surgeries? We are actual surgeons. (Cristina is still smiling) Meredith: What? Cristina: Nothing. (The clinic, Sydney is laying in bed acting like a patient) Izzie: A lot of arm swelling but good distal pulses so...we can rule out compartment syndrome. I suspect a radius fracture so I'd splint and get an ortho follow up. Bailey: Anything else? Izzie: No. Bailey: Ok. Then I guess this means... Callie: Time. Sydney: And I'm dad. Izzie: dad. (Sydney pretends to die) Bailey: You sent her home. The bone punctured through her skin. Izzie: Yeah, but she had multiple wounds and...abrasions. Sydney: A puncture over a break is an open fracture until proven otherwise. Yeah, I got septic and I died at home, thanks to you. Izzie: Whatever. Sydney: Not whatever to minor dad puncture wound that's not guy. Bailey: You have to be quick and thorough while using your instincts. You can't be fooled by what your eyes see. If you assess wrong, your patient could die while waiting for treatment. Karev, you're next. Izzie: Just think, I already klled her, you can't do more damage than that. Bailey: People, triage is one of the most important tools a doctor has. In a real emergent scenario, you'll have only minutes... Callie: And it's something you'll be tested on in your surgical exams. (George snaps a Polaroid) George: Sorry. Callie: George! George: I was just recording the drill. (Callie and George step to the side) George: Yeah. Callie: We're working, George. George: Yeah. Callie: Ok, I'm your boss right now. George: Ok. Callie: All right? George: A very sex one... Callie: No. You cannot undermine my authority in front of the other interns, in front of my peers. George: No. Bailey: O'Malley take that back to the clinic where it belongs. George: Yes, doctor. (Richard enters) Richard: People, look I'm sorry. I have to interrupt the session for a moment. Sydney: Chief, I like your new hair. Really brings out your eyes. Bailey: Do you need something sir? Richard: We just received word of a mass causality incident nearby. All available level 1 trauma centers have been asked to respond. I need to send a team into the field immediately. Cristina: Is this a part of the exercise? Are we supposed to act appropriately, um, tense? Richard: This is not an exercise or a drill, Yang. This is an emergent situation and I need all hands on deck. Izzie: Seriously? Bailey: What happened? Richard: I don't have details just orders. (Bailey and her interns are in the OR preparing their triage kits.) Cristina: Meredith? I have a thing. News. Meredith: You're not pregnant again are you? Cause I can't handle the extra months of bitchiness. (Bailey walks up) Bailey: We're catching a ride with Seattle 34, space is tight. So hold your kits on your lap. Alex: Where we going? Bailey: We'll know when we get there. Izzie: fre? Flood? Volcano? I'm not really dressed for a volcano. (They enter the ambulance bay) Bailey: Stevens. Izzie: Sorry, inappropriate. Sorry. Paramedic: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm hauling supplies, I only have room for five. Bailey: Yang. Cristina: Yes? Bailey: Stay with the Chief, take care of the incoming wounded. The rest of you come on. Cristina: Stevens was inappropriate. (Izzie gives her a look) Meredith: Hey, what was your news? Cristina: Forget it, forget it. (The ambulance leaves and Cristina is left standing there. The ambulance speeds through Seattle) Bailey: Oh everybody. Move your id's to the outside of your jacket. When we get there remember triage. Karev? Alex: Green tags non emergent, yellow tags delayed care, red tags needs immediate treatment. Bailey: Good. Assess carefully, tag, then get all critical patients into the ambulances as fast as possible. Don't get in the way of search and rescue and stay calm. Alex: Any word yet on what happened? Bailey: All we know is there are multiple traumas. (They ambulance arrives and George helps the others out of the bus. Each of the interns faces is that of utter shock.) Izzie: Holy mother of... (The camera pans around to show a scene of utter destruction. There are injured people and support personnel everywhere. There is an ferry boat on fre and the devastation is massive.) Izzie: Dr. Bailey, where do you need us? Meredith: Where should we start first? Izzie: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Ok, um, I don't have time to hold your hands. You know the protocol. Go do it. Alex: Do what? Bailey: Go help people. (The interns each run off their own separate directions) George: You need some help? Paramedic: Nothing more I can do here. George: How did this happen? Paramedic: It was a fog bank, container ship clipped the ferry. (George stops for a moment as he sees the makeshift morgue full of dad bodies.) Meredith: Ok, take a deep breath for me. Ok, you're gonna be ok. You're injuries are minor. An EMT is gonna come and take you to the hospital, ok? (She looks up and sees a little girl standing there, crying) Meredith: Is this your mommy? (The little girl shakes her head no) Who are you with? Ok, I want you to stay right here, ok? (The little girl grabs Meredith's arm) Stay right here. (Meredith looks down at the girl's wet pants) Did you wet your pants? That's ok. It happens sometimes. Paramedic: Coming through. (Meredith hugs the little girl) (Seattle scenes) (Derek and Burke are at a nurse's station) Derek: This doesn't make sense. Ferry boats don't get in accidents. The moment you take one for granted along comes a container ship and bam. (Burke just looks at him) I have a thing for ferryboats. Burke: (To Nurse) Reschedule Swanson's valve replacement. I'm gonna need the OR for the incoming from the ferry accident. Nurse: Ok. Derek: I mean, this whole day has just been...there's something wrong with Meredith. I asked her what's wrong she says nothing. She tries to drown herself in the tub. Not...actually drown. I don't think. Something was going on, she will not talk about it. I mean, we were fine now it's like I'm living with a ghost. Burke: You're confiding in me? Derek: Yes. Burke: Cristina and I are engaged. Derek: Congratulations. Burke: I mean, she doesn't wanna tell anyone. At least not until she tells Meredith first. Derek: Yeah. They're different then other women. Burke: Yes, these women. Yes they are. Derek: I mean, maybe we'll never know them, really know them. (Mark walks up) Derek: Now you and Cristina are engaged you'll have a lot of work to do. Burke: Right. Mark: You and Yang are getting hitched? Burke: There's a mass causality incident rolling in. Derek: There'll probably be some burn victims. You should be prepared. (Callie enters the clinic and picks up a chart. She turns and runs into Sydney) Callie: Whoa! Oh, Sydney. I...I thought I could take a few patients off your hands. (Sydney takes the chart back) Sydney: I appreciate the gesture, Dr. Callie O'Malley but the Chief asked to roll the non-emergent ER cases into the clinic and take care of them. So, I've triaged these patients and so far it looks like, uh, a sore throat, a sprain and a tummy ache. Easy breezy. So, the clinic and I are fine. Callie: Ok. I'm not, uh, trying to take the clinic, Bailey's clinic by the way, away from you. I'm trying to help so... (She grabs the chart back) Sydney: Your offer the help is dually noted and very much appreciated but (she takes the chart back) I promise you, I've got it all under control. Jason K? Jason: Yeah. Callie: Fine, I'll leave you to it. And find myself a recently traumatized emergency surgery to scrub in on while you stay down here with your sore throat and your sprain and what was the other one? Sydney: Tummy ache. Callie: Oh! Sydney: Jason K. (Izzie is the trauma scene look very much lost when a man walks up to her) Vince: Excuse me, are you a nurse, a doctor or a medical something? Izzie: I'm a doctor but... Vince: Come with me. Izzie: Um, no. You need to get checked out. There's a treatment area right over there. Vince: Follow me, please. Izzie: You've got some really bad burns. They need to be treated. Vince: My buddy's trapped. He's trapped under a car. Izzie: If he's trapped under a car, you need search and rescue. They have...they have personnel... Vince: I called them, they're backed up and he can't wait. He's in a real bad way. Please. He's my best buddy. Please. (Izzie is led off by Vince) (Richard walks up to Derek at the nurse's station) Richard: Shepherd I need you in the next rig. Derek: Ok. Richard: I want you at that scene. Derek: You're gonna need me here. Richard: They're reporting lots of closed head injuries and I want you to get in there and bring them back, alive. (Derek walks off) Richard: (To Mark) What's the news? Mark: Shepherd and Grey are on the rocks. Burke and Yang got engaged. (Richard just looks at him) You need highlights...in your hair. That's why it looks so odd. (Richard gives him another look) I'm gonna go save lives. Alex: take him to the treatment area. He'll fix you up there, ok? Paramedic: Come on, lets go. (Alex looks down off the dock and sees a woman trapped under a pylon) Alex: I've got somebody down here. Cop: Hey, that's not secure. (Alex ignores him) Hey! (Alex climbs over piles of rubble to get to the woman) Doctor I need you to get up here. Alex: There's a pregnant woman down here just shut the... Cop: Is she dad? Alex: Yeah. (He starts to walk away and turns to see the woman moving her hand.) Wait a second. Hold on, hold on. (He tries to move the pylon) Immediate, immediate. I need help down here. (Vince and Izzie run up to some cars. There are two men standing there and a man trapped under the car.) Friend: He's back. He's got help. Vince: You hear that Rick? We got help. We got a doctor. You're gonna be ok now man. Greg: He's gonna be ok? Right? (Cristina is watching a television in the hospital waiting room) Newscaster: What we do know at this time or what we can tell you is that there have been deaths. And we don't know how many and we may not know that for hours or even days. (Richard walks up) Newscaster: We also know that passengers are still being evacuated. A ferry of this size can carry anywhere up to a 1000 or 1500 passengers. Richard: All right you're gonna need these to handle the influx. We're gonna need plenty of available open chest trays, central line kits and the difficult intubation kit. Cristina: Yes, sir. (Cristina leaves and Richard turns to watch the TV) Newscaster: We don't know... Richard: Oh, Yang. Cristina: I know sir. Communicate with the scene as needed. Richard: No, I heard you were engaged. Congratulations. Cristina: Thank you, sir. Richard: All right, go. And remember we're hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. Cristina: Right. (Back at the scene) Paramedic: You got anyone for me? George: Uh, yeah. Those two need to be transported. Uh, these five didn't make it. Four adults and one child. (A woman walks up. She was obviously in the crash) Carly: A child? You found a dad child? Boy or girl? George: Ma'am, you're injured, you need to lie down. (Loudly) Get a stretcher, now! Carly: Is the child a boy or girl? I can't find my son. We got separated. I need to know if my little boy is alive. George: She was a girl. The child was a little girl. (Carly tries to walk away) No, no, no, no, no. I need to examine you. I'm gonna have to take you to the hospital. Carly: No, I can't leave. He's only seven. No! And...and he's all alone. No, I will not leave my son behind. George: I will find him. Listen to me, I will find him. If you let me take you to triage, I promise you, I will find your son. Carly: He's so scared. George: I know. I know. I will find him. (George takes the picture from her) Carly: Ok. George: Ok. Vince: He's a mechanic. We work together. We drive together to work. And suddenly there was this huge jolt. Friend: It was awful. We were just trying to get out of there but Rick went back in. Greg: Figured we could help, we should help. He went back and there were people trapped. He was just trying to help. Vince: We were behind him. We were right behind him. Izzie: He has injuries to his chest and leg. It looks like him arm is broken and I'd guess there's damage to his spine and pelvis. I can't...there's not much I can do until we get him out of here. Vince: You gotta do what you can. I mean we'll uh...Greg go find some more guys. Izzie: Hey, go find search and rescue, ok? Give them this...(She hands him a red triage tag) Tell them I said he can't wait. He has to get to a hospital. Greg: All right, I'm going. (Derek is not at the scene) Derek: Let them know he needs a CT. Make sure to keep his neck sab. Ask for Weller. Weller's not available ask for Krichek. Ok? Keep him sab. (Meredith sees Derek) Derek: What do you got? Ok, someone hand me some bandages. Ok, stop here. Meredith: Derek. Derek: Meredith, hey, you got a free hand? Here, hold this bandage for me. You all right? Meredith: Yeah, it's just...a lot. Derek: You wanna get married? And you haven't told me and I haven't asked? And we have a problem? Meredith: What? No, I don't want to get married. You want to get married? Derek: No. Good. So, if that's not it, what is it? Meredith: It isn't anything. Are you good cause I gotta get this kid to triage? Derek: Yeah, ok. Lets go. Is she all right? Meredith: Yeah, she's good. She's just lost. Derek: (Walking away) Hang in there. We're gonna get you to the hospital. (Meredith walks off still holding little Lisa's hand) (Addison and Richard are in front of the OR board) Addison: All of the non emergent surgeries have been postponed. Richard: Good. Addison: I'm gonna go check on discharges. Trying to free up as many beds as I can in the surgical wing. Richard: Oh. I was gonna do that but... Addison: I can do it. Richard: Uh sure. Good. Addison: Unless you want to? Richard: No. No, go ahead. Addison: You're still the chief. Richard: I know that. Addison: Just seems so quiet, you know? Richard: Yeah, we're expecting the first wave from the scene soon. (Richard starts to walk away) Addison: I dyed my hair blonde. The day after Derek moved out. Change is good. Your marriage is over. You're starting over. So am I. Richard: Right. (Burke and Cristina are talking in a room) Cristina: I specifically told you I needed to tell Meredith first. Burke: I was talking to Shepherd and...it just...came out. It was no big deal. Cristina: Wait. It is a big deal. Because now she's not even gonna care about the fact that I'm getting married. All she's gonna care about is the fact that I didn't tell her myself. Burke: And why didn't you? Cristina: There was a major disaster. Burke: That was 45 minutes after we discussed it. You were with your friends for 45 minutes running triage drills and you weren't compelled to mention it? Cristina: The chief says they're rolling in soon, so... (Alex is in the ambulance with Jane Doe) Paramedic: Blood pressure's really low, barely registering. Setting up the veins for an IV. Alex: She's all clamped down from hypothermia, that's why I couldn't find a pulse. Paramedic: I've never seen a crush injury so bad, and survive. God she's a mess. Alex: She needs to stay on her left side. We gotta mover her on her left side. It's gonna take both of us, gotta get that BP up. On my count. One...(She grabs Alex's arm) Two... You're baby...you're baby ok. For now it looks ok. Just try to breathe. We need to move you to help you get circulation, ok? One, two, three. Paramedic: Pulse is already better. I'll attempt IV access again. Alex: Just breathe through the pain. All you can do for your baby right now is take care of yourself. There you go, good. I know it hurts. Come on now; keep breathing for me, ok? That's it. Keep breathing. (Richard is standing in the silent ambulance bay. Cristina walks out and stands next to him) Richard: Good. Cristina: Um, what do we...so what do we do? Richard: We wait. (Callie walks out) Cristina: We wait? (Addison walks out) Richard: We wait. (The scene. Meredith is talking with Lisa) Meredith: Ok, we need to find a grown-up. Another grown-up to help you find your mom. (Meredith sees a man crawling out of the water near the docks. She stops a passing officer) Meredith: Hey. I need you to take this little girl to the triage tents. Officer: I gotta get back to my unit. Meredith: No, I need you to take this little girl to the triage tents for me, please. (To Lisa) You're gonna be ok. You're gonna be fine. I promise. Thanks. (Meredith walks over to the man on the dock. The officer and little girl start to walk away. A man shouts for help and the officer goes to help) Officer: Stay right here. (Lisa looks very lost) (Derek is near an ambulance where Bailey is getting ready to climb inside) Derek: How we doing? Bailey: It's bad. A lot of survivors, so, it's something. Derek: Yeah, it is. Bailey: Have you seen Stevens? Derek: No. Bailey: What about O'Malley? Grey? Derek: Grey was...I saw Grey about ten minutes ago. She was on her way over to you with a kid. You haven't seen her? Bailey: Nope. I gotta head out with this one, so, keep an eye on my interns. All right? Derek: I'll do my best. (Derek closes the ambulance doors for Bailey. He turns around looking confused and tries to see Meredith in the crowds.) (Alex is at the hospital with Jane Doe) Alex: Jane Doe, about six months pregnant, found under a pile of rubble. Sustained crush injuries to her right torso and upper extremities as well as severe trauma to the face. BP initially low but now up to 90 over 60 after a liter of fluid and placing her on her left side. Richard: What do we do? Karev? Cristina: ABC. Her airway needs to be protected. Her breathing will be compromised because of the crush injury. And we need to have blood available. I would do a trauma panel, type and cross and CT's of her head and neck. Richard: Excellent, lets get her started. Uh, trauma room 2. (In the trauma room) Paramedic: One, two and three. Richard: Lets see what we have. (Jane grabs Alex's hand) Alex: The baby...the baby's gonna... Addison: Make sure that you shield her in radiology. Burke: Gotta get her sab first, before you start worrying about the baby. The mother may be negligible. Addison: Right, but...she's gonna need a lot before all this is over. We need to protect them both. Richard: Yang, you're on this. Alex, go to the clinic. The victim's families are there. They need answers. Alex: This is my patient. I pulled her out of the damned water. Richard: Which is heroic and manly and you still need to talk to those families, right now. Alex: Me? Why can't Yang do it? Richard: This is all hands on deck. Yang can handle this. Now go. (George is in the ambulance bay unloading Carly) George: Ok. Carly: He likes fre trucks. And police cars. Anything with flashing lights. (Bailey enters the ambulance bay) George: Carly Height, 45 year old female found at the scene. Open abdominal wound with a mental evisceration. Bailey: Ok, we need to get her to an OR as soon as possible. Carly: He won't respond if you call him Christopher. He hates that. Just Chris. George: Ok. Carly: He likes Christ the best. Bailey: O'Malley what is she talking about? George: She lost track of her son in the accident. Carly: Dr. O'Malley and I made a deal. He's gonna find my son so that I know that Chris is ok before I go into surgery. Bailey: Miss Height, your injury is extremely serious. We need to tend to it as soon as possible. Carly: As soon as he's located. I can't go into surgery before I know about my son. George: I'm sure he's here. All families are being directed here. Bailey: O'Malley just find the boy in a hurry. We'll start the workup. (Back at the scene. Izzie is doing her best to help Rick) Izzie: I need some more gauze. Friend: There's no more here. Vince: Maybe you could, uh, find some paper towels in the head. Friend: I'll find something. Rick: Vince? Vince, man, it hurts like hell. Vince: Can you do anything about that? I mean, you got anything for the pain? Izzie: I've given him everything I've got. Where is search and rescue? Rick: It hurts. Vince: What hurts man? Rick: Everything. Izzie: Maybe if...maybe if I try to set his arm it will help some of the pain. Vince: What are you waiting for? Izzie: I...uh...um... Vince: What? Izzie: Nothing, just, uh...just, uh, stay there and hold his hand. Vince: Hold his hand? Izzie: You think he's in pain now? He's not. Hold his hand. Place both hands on opposite sides of the arm, distract, exaggerate, and reverse the mechanism in one continuous motion. Vince: You are a doctor, aren't ya? Izzie: Shut up. All right, all right. Rick, you ready? Rick: Yeah. Izzie: One...two... (She yanks his arm and he screams) (Meredith is at the dock) Meredith: What happened? Businessman: Some metal, something ht my leg. I was thrown off. God, it hurts. It hurts. Meredith: Ok. Businessman: I started swimming. I need to go. I've got a meeting. (She puts a bandage on his leg and he starts screaming) Meredith: I'm sorry. I'm sorry, sir. But try to stay still. (Lisa walks up and taps her on the shoulder) Don't look. Turn around. I need you to be brave for me. Just stand right there and don't move. And don't look. (Jane Doe is in CT. Cristina is entering the viewing room when Burke walks up) Burke: What do we got? Cristina: Oh, we just got started. Burke: All right, then I got this. There's nobody covering my service. I'm gonna need you to get up to telemetry and check on my patients, pre-op and post-op. Cristina: And then I should join you in surgery? Burke: No, and then you should report to the pit. Cristina: The chief assigned me to Jane Doe. Burke: Yes, and I'm reassigning you. Cristina: To do what? Sutures? Burke: Yes. Cristina: Ok, so you're saying you don't want me to scrub in? Burke: Dr. Yang, I'm saying I have an unattended thoracic wing and a pit full of patients. You have the ability to help. I don't need you in the Or, I need you on the floor. Do you have a problem with that? Cristina: Nope. Burke: Thank you. (George is an office on the phone) George: No, Chris Height. He's seven years old, he's got brown hair. I don't know if he's injured. Could you just check to see if he's there. Yes, I know all the families were directed here could you just check. Thank you, yeah. (Callie walks by) George: Callie, I need some help. Callie: I can't, I'm busy. George: Yeah, it's just I'm trying to find this... Callie: George I'm busy. I'm about to go into surgery. I can't be your wife right now, I'm working. George: I'm working too. I have a patient who needs surgery. Callie: So do I. (Callie leaves) George: Yes, any luck? Thank you. (Meredith and Lisa are still helping the man at the scene) Meredith: Ok. Damn it. (Loudly) Can I get some help over here? Sweetie, listen to me. I need you to turn around. I know I told you to face away from me but we need to work together to save this man. I don't talk either when I get scared. I don't...talk when bad things happen. You don't have to say anything but I need your help. (Lisa turns around) Ok. Don't look down. Don't look at the blood. Look at me. Look at me. Can you be my assistant? (She nods yes) Ok, good. I can't move my hands from where they are right now so I need you to go over to my kit and pull out the things they look like, um, like tweezers. You know what your mommy uses to pull a splinter out with? (Cristina and Alex are in the locker room) Cristina: Hey, what was the site like? Was it gory? Was it trauma bonanza? Obviously terrible. Alex: I don't talk to thieves. Cristina: What? Alex: You stole my Jane Doe right out from under me. Cristina: I am not a thief. You balked, you're a balker. Alex: I was thinking. Cristina: Again not my problem that thinking is such a time consuming process for you. Alex: I rescued her. I climbed down and moved a massive pylon off of her. I got her here alive. Cristina: Pylons? There are pylons on people? Alex: Whatever. Now I get stuck babysitting the patients families who are waiting and you get to scrub in. Cristina: I'm not scrubbing in, I'm stitching up patients in the pit. Alex: Who'd you piss off to get that? Cristina: I happen to be pulling gaping pieces of flesh back together. Alex: You're stitching. You're just one step closer to knitting your grandma's sweater. Cristina: Well at least mines medical. Alex: You're knitting. I pull pylons off people. (The clinic is being used as a family gathering point. Sydney is there helping) Sydney: Orange juice? Orange juice? Orange juice? Oh, sweetie. Yeah, his colors not good. Do you want some orange juice? Or maybe I have some wheat crackers to put in your belly. (Loudly) Everybody if you're waiting to hear about your families. We should be hearing something very soon. I'm sorry. (The site) Friend: He must have saved at least a dozen people who were stuck in their cars. We told him not to go back. Vince: That's the kind of guy he is. He's the guy that goes back. He's got kids too, five of them. Izzie: Ok, I'm committed to the project. I don't need to hear about the kids. Rick: Leave the girl alone, Vince. Vince: Sorry. You're doing a real great job there. (Greg walks up) Greg: Hey, how's he doing? Vince: He's doing all right. Izzie: No, no. No he's not. I can't do anything more until we get him out from under this car. Can you please tell me why you've come back by yourself? Greg: Search and rescue, they're buried. They said they'd come when they can. Izzie: The red tag. Did you show them the red tag? Greg: They said they got 15 red tags. Rick: Go on guys. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. Vince: No, no, no. Don't do this Rick. Stay with me. Stay with me. He let go of my hand. He's going limp. Wake up Rick. (Alex enters Jane's room) Alex: Hey. I'm not gonna be able to make it to your surgery. Here's the thing, you were crushed under a cement pylon. Dozens of people on that ferry boat died but you're still alive. So, when I come back to check on you after the surgery you better still be alive. All right? (She nods) All right. (Alex goes to leave and Addison is at the door) Addison: BP's s*ab. So is the baby's. You did good, Karev. Alex: She gonna be ok? Addison: Yeah, we're gonna do everything we can. Alex: What about the baby? She gonna be able to carry it to term. Addison: Um, you should get back down to the clinic. (The OR, Carly is ready to be operated on) Bailey: Mrs. Height, it's time. We really need to operate before you lose anymore blood or your bowels start to die. Carly: Just wait til Dr. O'Malley finds my son, please. (George enters) Carly: Dr. O'Malley, George, did you find him? Is he ok? Is he awake? (The scene) Izzie: One of his pupils is blown, we don't have a lot of time. Vince: What are you gonna do? You can't let him die. Izzie: Sorry. I'm doing what I can. Vince: It's not enough. Please just...look they're not gonna get him out of here any time soon, so you have gotta figure out a way to help him. Right here, right now. (Alex enters the clinic) Angry Woman: Finally. Man: Kelly Winters Man 2: Patina. Patina's a little girl with... Alex: Hold on, hold on. I'm...I'm Dr. Karev. This is a very rough situation and I can assure you that we're doing everything that we can. The following are the patients we have identified at this time: John J. Anders, Kirk Demerat. (Angry lady rips the list from his hands) Angry Lady: This is the same list they gave us a half hour ago. It's posted over there. Alex: I understand. Man: Please...just please. Kelly she's got, um, brown hair. She's about 5'4. Alex: Look, we had a lot of people who came in without ID. Angry Lady: Just take us over to the ER and we'll look for ourselves. Alex: We can't let you do that. Crowd: Why not? (The crowd continues yelling and Alex looks overwhelmed.) (At the scene, Meredith has just finished sewing up the businessman's leg) Meredith: Ok. It's ok. Uh, I have to deflate the blood pressure cuff and see if this makes...Ok. We saved him. You helped. We just have to bandage him up and find someone to take him to the hospital and then we're gonna find your mom ok. (The man is shivering. Meredith takes off her coat and covers him with it.) Businessman: Oh, I can't stand the pain. I gotta get out of here. Meredith: Sir, don't move. Don't move. (The man tries to stand up and when he does he pushes Meredith over the dock edge and into the water. The little girl stands there staring for a moment and then she walks away. The camera looks at the dark water and then fades out.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x15 - Walk on Water"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x16: Drowning on Dry Land Original Airdate: 2/15/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Rob Corn (Camera focuses on the water. Faces can be seen in the background, Derek looking into the tub, Cristina poking out from around her locker, Bailey in the ambulance bay, George at the crash scene, Alex with Jane Doe, Izzie with Rick, Ellis in her hospital bed, and Lisa walking away from the dock) MVO: Like I said disappearances happen. Pains go phantom, blood stops running, and people fade away. (Meredith is swimming and fighting. She emerges from the water and is trying to surface.) MVO: There's more I have to say. So much more. But I've disappeared. (Meredith sinks into the water and the water calms as bubbles appear) (Cristina is at a nurse's station.) Nurse Kate: Did you check on Kramer in 2309 because his x-rays are done and I don't know what to do? Tyler: Higgins in 2312 needs diet orders before... Cristina: Done and done. I need you to monitor Collins in 2323. Page me if his systolic drops below 90. I gave him a low dose of dig to lower his heart rate. And have either of you seen Dr. Grey? Kate: Uh, I checked on her earlier but she's a little sedate today. Cristina: Not Dr. Ellis Grey. Dr. Meredith Grey. Kate: No. Tyler: Not since this morning. Cristina: Fine. Um, if there's anything emergent page me in the pit. (Carly's OR) Carly: George, did you find him? Is Chris ok? Is he awake? Is he...? Bailey: Answer Mrs. Height, O'Malley. George: Chris is fine. He's glad you're ok and he'll be waiting for you after surgery. He's being very brave Carly: That's my Chris. That's my boy. Thank you, Dr. O'Malley. Thank you so much. (George goes to leave and Bailey walks with him) Bailey: Dr. O'Malley. Hold up a second. What happens when the happy mother in there wakes up and her son isn't there to greet her? What then? How you gonna explain that? O'Malley? George: If she wakes up after surgery because of my lie, I'm ok with that Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Find that child. George: Yes, ma'am. (Jane Doe's room) Richard: Her echo's showed cardiac tamponade. Burke: So out first priority is sab the traumatic pericardial infusion. Addison: Keeping mom alive means keeping baby alive. I'll monitor the surgery while he operates. Burke: I'll notify the OR. (Burke leaves as Alex enters) Alex: Chief, we've got a mob scene in the clinic of people looking for missing family members and nothing but a two hour old list of patients. Richard: No one has any more information than you do. The police are asking us questions. Search and rescue can't track it. Well have to do it ourselves. Alex: Is there some kind of system that...? Richard: You're the system, Karev. Figure it out. (Richard leaves) Alex: How's she doing? Addison: Well, we won't know until we get her up to the OR. She's still a Jane Doe? Alex: Yeah. Addison: To be in that condition and have no one that even knows. Alex: What? Addison: She's all-alone. It makes you think. I mean, if I went missing would anyone even know I was gone. (The accident scene) Friend: Do something. Izzie: He's still seizing, there's nothing more I can do. Vince: You're supposed to put something in his mouth so he can't bite his tongue. Aren't ya? Izzie: Nobody's putting anything in his mouth. We just have to just him ride it out. Vince: What are you gonna do? You can't just let him die. Izzie: They're gonna come soon, in a little while, and they'll get him out. Vince: You said we don't get much time. Greg: What if they don't get him out from there before he... Izzie: I don't know. I don't know, ok? I don't know. Vince: Please, you can't quit on us now. You just...you just gotta try something else. Izzie: I'm out of practice. I've been watching. For weeks, I've just been watching. And I...I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Vince: You stopped the bleeding, that was good. Come on please. I...I know this guy. I believe in him. I believe he can make it. You gotta believe in it too. You gotta believe you can do this, please. Don't stop now. Izzie: Who's got a cell phone? (All three of them hand their cell phones to Izzie) (Derek is walking through the trauma scene) Derek: You guys good? You ok? Yeah, what do you got? Paramedic: Severely severed leg but he's got his artery tied off so...something. Derek: Yeah, who tied off the artery? (He looks at the coat on the business man and sees Meredith's name badge) Dr. Grey? This is her jacket. Paramedic: We found him like this. She must have moved on. Derek: Yeah, ok. (Derek looks up and sees Lisa standing there all-alone.) Doctor: Doc? Derek: Yeah. What is it? Just sab the fracture and get him to the hospital as soon as possible. (He makes his way over to Lisa) Hi. You ok? Did a doctor bring you here? Huh, Meredith? Meredith ok? (Lisa shakes her head no and the scene changes to Meredith under water. She is no longer swimming or struggling in any way. She is merely sinking.) (George is in the clinic with the picture of Chris. He is walking around looking at the boys in the room. He stops at one little boy) George: Hi, my name's George. Is your name Chris? Boy: No. George: (To the man nearby) Is he...? Thank you. (To the boy) Thank you, very much. (George leaves the clinic as Alex enters. The people see Alex entering and flock to him.) Man: Do you have a new list? Alex: Uh, not yet. Man: Nothing? How can there be no new information? Angry Lady: Isn't there someone you can call? Someone who knows something. Alex: Uh, nobody knows anything right now. (The crowd begins yelling at Alex) Quiet! All right, that list is all I have for you and it sucks but that's it. (The crowd is yelling again) Angry Lady: I can't believe you don't have some kind of a system. I mean... Alex: Give me a minute to think, I'll come up with a damn system. (The crowd disperses with the attitude that Alex should be more understanding) Sydney: I just want you to know that I understand you're under a lot of pressure. If you...if you just need to sit for a minute, or if you need a hand, or a hug. (Alex sees a Polaroid camera on the counter. He takes it and walks off. Sydney looks like she feels very useless) (Richard is in the gallery above Jane Doe's surgery when his cell phone rings) Richard: Chief Webber. Izzie: Oh, chief, I gotta guy here and we can't extricate him... Richard: Hold on, who is this? Izzie: ...and I've tried everything... Richard: Hold on. Who is this? Izzie: It's Izzie Stevens. I'm at the dock. I've got a patient with a depressed skull fracture and probably an inter-cranial bleed. Richard: Is he showing signs of increased pressure? Izzie: Yes, his left pupil is blown, he's gone limp, he's seizing and now his right pupil is dilating. Richard: He could be herniating. What's your ETA to the hospital. (Richard is now in the hallway) Izzie: That's what I'm saying, we can't get him out. He's stuck under a car and we can't get him out. Richard: Ok, first you've got to stay calm. Izzie: I can't stay calm. Calm was over minutes ago, calm is gone, calm is an impossibility. I've got his best friends here and I can't let him die. So, please just tell me what I need to do. Richard: You need to do some burr holes. Izzie: Burr holes? I can't do burr holes out here. Richard: Do you want to save his life, Stevens? Izzie: Yes. Richard: All right, I need a minute to check something out in the book and then I'll talk you through it. Izzie: You're looking it up in a book? Richard: I'm not a neurosurgeon, Stevens. And I want to make sure we get this right. (Loudly to the people around him) Somebody find me a copy of Boardman's Neurosurgery. (Mark walks up) Mark: Everything ok? Richard: You know anything about making burr holes? Mark: Done it a couple times. Richard: Good, don't go anywhere. Stevens, listen to me. Izzie: (To Vince and his friends) I'm gonna need a drill. Vince: There's one in my truck. Friend: What do you need a drill for? Izzie: I've gotta drill holes in your friend's head. (Vince and his friends all look at Izzie like she is insane. Izzie looks rather nauseous.) (George is in the ER looking for Chris. He is looking over, under and behind everything. He looks behind the curtain that is near Cristina.) Cristina: Hello, I'm suturing here. George: Sorry. Cristina: You just get back? George: Yeah. Um, I'm looking...have you, uh, seen any lost children down here? Cristina: Is Meredith back too? Cause I need her it's really important. This kids missing, his mom's in surgery. Cristina: What kind of surgery? George: This kids lost. You didn't see it today, Cristina. You weren't out there. Cristina: I know. George: Have you seen any lost kids down here, or not? Cristina: Not. George: Ok. Cristina: Do you know where Meredith is? George: I'm leaving. Cristina: Yeah, I know. (Alex is in the clinic tacking polaroids of the injured to the bulletin board) Alex: All right, if you can identify the patient, please write their name on their picture. Sydney: I've got markers. Alex: These patients are in surgery and these patients are in the ICU. Man 2: This is Patina. Is she ok? Alex: Uh, yeah. She's in the OR, sab. Ok, all these people have been transferred from other hospitals. Sydney: And I have the details. Alex: (To Sydney) If it's ok, I've gotta a case I need to check on. (Alex starts to leave and is stopped by Angry Lady) Angry Lady: My husband's not on that board. Man: Kelly Winters, she's not either. Angry Lady: What does that mean? Alex: It's...it's...they could be in shock or walked away from the site or... Angry Lady: Just say it. A lot of people died. They're dad. Alex: We don't know that. Man: So, how can we know? Man 3: My wife? She wasn't in these photos either but she's pregnant. Is it possible you just didn't see her? Alex: She's pregnant? (Lisa and Derek are at the scene. She looks very frightened and is trying to look around for some familiar landmark or person. Derek is holding her hand.) Derek: What? It's ok. Just think. Where is she? Which way did she go? It's ok. Take your time. Take all the time you need, you're doing great. What is it? (Lisa spots a red cross sign and walks toward it) Derek: Good. (They stop on the dock. Lisa stares out into the water.) Derek: Ok, use your words. Where exactly is Meredith. (She points into the water and Derek looks terrified) (Meredith is still sinking and then the scene changes to Jane Doe's surgery) Burke: The leak in the heart is coming from the right atrium. Addison: Are you gonna put her on bypass cause that could compromise the baby. Burke: No, I can fix her heart while it's still beating. Push 40 milligrams of abizonole. (Alex enters) Alex: Found her husband. I found him. She's not a Jane Doe. Her name's Casey. Casey Clarke. (Addison gives him a look) What? Addison: How do you know? Alex: What? Addison: How do you know it's Casey Clarke? Alex: Well she's pregnant and... Addison: There were hundreds of people on that ferry, Alex. Hundreds. And chances are that more than one were pregnant. Now, do not give that man hope unless you are certain. Do not give him hope until you've checked every last body in the morgue. Alex: Dr. Burke can I, uh...(He holds up the camera) Burke: Yes, make it fast. (Alex leaves) Addison: I gotta tell ya, this group of interns... Burke: Emotional. Addison: Head strong. Burke: Hot headed, stubborn, they think they know everything. And you can only give them so much rope before they hang themselves with it. It's like they lose all rationality. They won't listen to reason. Addison: Geez Preston, don't hold back. (The monitor starts beeping) Addison: It's getting hypotensive. All right, I'm seeing some late decels in the fetal heart monitor. Baby is not getting enough blood. Burke: Almost...just got one...more stitch. Got it, turn on the Echo. Addison: Baby's heart rate sab. Burke: Hmm, think we've seen the worst of it. (Alex enters the stairwell where George is squatting and looking at a map of the hospital) Alex: What's the deal? George: Do you know how massive this hospital is? How many people, not just sick people, not to mention, if I'm a little kid, how many places can I hide. He's little. A little kid could hide anywhere. Alex: What you're looking for a kid? George: Yeah. His mom's in surgery and I um...if I don't find him Bailey will...well to start she'll change her son's middle name to Elvis or Tupperware or...I'm not kidding, anything will be better than George. Alex: I know a place a kid might be. George: Really. (George and Alex are in the morgue. Alex is taking pictures) George: You could have warned me. Alex: You didn't check down here, right? George: No. Alex: So, stop whining and tell me if you find a pregnant chick. You know, you're not the only one with a detail that sucks. You know, I'm supposed to deal with these freaked out families. I'm not good with people; they should just let me stick to patients. George: Patients are people, especially kids. Alex: You know what I mean. George: He's face down. How does that...? Come here and help me turn his body right. Alex: Dude. George: Don't tell me it doesn't matter. God, I swear to... Alex: Dramatic much? George: This doesn't bother you? Any of this? All this death, it doesn't mean anything to you? Alex: I'm working, why would it? George: Yeah but I was working when...Caucasian female about 30 years old. She's...she's pretty. She looks about 7 months pregnant. (Alex takes a picture) (The scenes, Greg is holding the phone up) Richard: Now remember Stevens that drill just isn't going to stop like a neurosurgical drill. So, as soon as you feel the release in pressure, stop the drill or you'll pierce his brain. Izzie: Even if I don't see blood? (Mark and Richard are in an x-ray room) Mark: Trust your instincts Stevens, trust the feel of it. Izzie: I'm ready. No, wait, I need to clean the drill off, one more time. Richard: You've cleaned it a dozen times Stevens, it's as clean as it's gonna get. You ready? Izzie: Yes. Richard: Ok, place three fingers above the ear and two or three fingers in front of that on the side where the first pupil blew. Izzie: Got it. Richard: All right, now use the scalpel to make a vertical scalp incision down to the skull. Friend: Jeez. Izzie: I see a lot of blood, a lot. Mark: Superficial bleeders, nothing to worry about. Richard: Are you at the skull? Izzie: Yes. Richard: Drill a hole in the middle of the incision. (Friend hands her a power drill) Vince: Oh, god. Izzie: Ok, that can't happen. Do you understand me? Sounds can't happen. Freaking out can't happen. Because if you freak out, I'm gonna freak out. And I'm the one holding a power drill to your friend's brain. So, if you're gonna vomit, if you're gonna make sounds, step away. If you're gonna stay here you have to pull it together, ok? Vince: I'm good, doc. Izzie: Ok, I'm ready. Mark: The temporal bones only gonna be a couple millimeters thick. Izzie: Ok, I'm in. But the dura looks fine. Richard: You're gonna have to go in again. Izzie: Frontal lobe, right? Richard: That's right. Just behind the hairline, a few centimeters off the midline. Mark: This bone will be thicker, about five times as think as the temporal bone. Izzie: Ok, got it. Second hole down. Mark: What do you see? Izzie: I think I see...blood. I see blood. Richard: Ok, now this is important. Drill around the hole to expand the opening. You have to try and relieve the pressure. Izzie: Ok. Ok. The hole is about 2 centimeters around now. I see blood, I definitely see blood. Richard: Try to evacuate as much of the clot as you can. Izzie: With what? I don't have suction. Mark: Use your finger, gauze, anything. Izzie: I see clotted blood. Richard: No arterial? Izzie: No. Richard: Good, now how does the dura look? Is it bulging or does it look lax? (Mark and Richard both look proud of Izzie) Izzie: Looks like it's pulsating regularly with the heartbeat. That's another good, right? Richard: That's great, Stevens. If it's pulsating that means blood and oxygen are entering the brain. Now, pack it with gauze so you can minimize the bleeding. Izzie: Ok, get the rescue rig in here. Richard: Nicely done, Stevens. Vince: Is that it, is he gonna be ok? Izzie: We've relieved the pressure on his brain but he's still got a lot of other injuries. Friend: Hey, his eyes are open. (They all have a moment of relief) (Lisa is standing on the dock staring into the water when a coast guard officer walks up) Coast Guard: Hey kid! Kid! You ok? You need to come with me. Kid? (He picks Lisa up and starts to carry her away. As he is walking you hear coughing and then Derek walks onto the dock with a very blue and very, very lifeless Meredith in his arms) (Derek is in the ambulance performing CPR on Meredith) Derek: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Paramedic: ETA's five minutes. Derek: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...1, 2, 3, 4, 5. (Derek continues CPR with no response from Meredith) (George enters Carly's OR) George: How is she doing? Bailey: Good, no intestinal damage. Missed all her vital organs, she's almost done here. You find her son? George: I've looked everywhere. I've been in contact with the scene, with Mercy West, with Seattle Presbyterian, I've checked in the...he's lost. Or...Or, uh. Bailey: He's in the water. So, when she wakes up I get to inform her that she's not going to die, she's just gonna want to die. George: I'm sorry, I'll...I'm gonna keep looking. Bailey: Yeah, you do that. (Izzie arrives at the hospital with Rick in the ambulance. Richard rushes out to greet her.) Izzie: His right pupils not dilating anymore. He's normal tensive but his pulse is still up in the 130's. Richard: Ok, what's his neurological status? Izzie: GCS is eight. I'm sorry, I ran out of sterile drapes, I had to use some guys t-shirt. It wasn't sweaty or anything, he was a clean guy but... Richard: Ok, call the OR, tell them we're coming up. Izzie: I also dropped the scalpel in the field and by that time I had used all the alcohol swabs on the drill bit. So, I think we should load him up on antibiotics. Lots and lots of antibiotics. Richard: Stevens, you put a drill through a man's skull and didn't ht his brain. You saved his life. Get cleaned up and get to the OR, you've got work to do. Izzie: The OR? Richard: Yes, the OR, you're officially off of probation. (Izzie passes Cristina in the hall) Izzie: Oh, Cristina! Oh my god, you are not gonna believe what I just did. I'm gonna tell you but you are not gonna believe it. You're gonna think I made the whole thing up. Cristina: You're back? Wait, is Meredith back? Izzie: I drilled a hole into this guy's skull. Cristina: What? Izzie: Several holes actually, with a drill I borrowed from a guy named Vince. Packed the whole with freaking tissue then brought him back here and now I get to scrub in on his craniotomy. Cristina: So, you haven't seen Meredith. Izzie: It was like a ride, this crazy roller coaster ride with like adrenaline sh*ting out of my ears. You think that my hands would be shaking but they weren't, there was no shaking. Did I mention the drill? Cristina: Ok, Izzie, I get it. You are a hero, I am jealous. But I need to know where the hell Meredith is. Izzie: Ok...I don't know where the hell Meredith is but...she should be back here. I didn't see her at the scene. The scene where I was a rockstar, by the way. Did I mention I'm off probation? (Izzie starts to walk away and Cristina gives her a look) Izzie: Rockstar! (Alex is in the clinic and has the pictures of the dad people from the ferry accident) Alex: These photos are fatalities. I know it's difficult but please try to ID who you can. (The people go to the board and slowly take the pictures of their loved ones. Alex is finally touched by the situation) (Rick's OR) Mark: We've agreed to let you do the honors. A few more burr holes to start the craniotomy. Izzie: Really? Mark: You saved his life, you might as well help finish what you started. After I strip off the periosteom you can see what a high-speed neurosurgical drill feels like. Izzie: Drill, please. (Izzie holds the drill smiling) (Alex is in the clinic and sees the devestation of the crowd. He looks around and understands all of it finally. He walks up to the husband of the pregnant woman) Man 3: I have...we have two pregnant women. One of them is...she's in bad shape. She's pretty bat up. She might be hard to recognize. Man 3: That...I don't know. What color's her hair? Alex: Brown, reddish. Man 3: My wife is blonde, brownish but blonde. Alex: Well sometimes the blood makes it look darker like that, red. I know you can't tell from the photo but her eyes their pretty distinctive. Man 3: Casey's eyes are very distinctive. Alex: Brown but not that really dark, dark brown but golden and really warm. Man 3: It's not her. Casey's are blue, very, very blue. Alex: I'm sorry. Man 3: I thought you said you...had two pregnant women. Alex: Yeah, we um...the other one is um...she's... Man 3: Oh, god...oh no...Casey. Oh, Casey. (Alex sees the loss around the room) (The ambulance with Derek and Meredith arrive and Bailey is in the ambulance bay to get it) Bailey: What do we got? Paramedic: Jane Doe, hypothermic, drowning. Derek: She's not Jane Doe, it's Meredith Grey. It's Meredith. Bailey: Derek! Derek, Derek, how long she been down? Derek: I don't know. She's alive, she's alive. Bailey: Derek! Derek: She's alive. Bailey: Ok, look. I need you to help me get her inside. (Loudly) Clear a trauma bay, stat! Move it! (Burke walks up to Cristina who is in the ER still doing sutures) Cristina: How was your surgery Dr. Burke? Burke: Well, the patient is out of the woods now, Dr. Yang. Thanks for asking. (Cristina yanks the stitch she is doing) Patient: Ow! Cristina: You're numbed. Patient: Whatever. It looked harsh. Cristina: (To Nurse) Here, finish this please. (Cristina walks into an empty room and Burke follows her) Burke: What is your problem? Cristina: You know, everyone's back. Everyone's back except here. And I listened to her, everyday about her McLove life and McDreamy and McCrap. And on the one day, the one day I have a thing...she's disappears. Burke: Meredith? This is about Meredith. Cristina: She doesn't know yet. Burke: Meredith? Cristina: She's my person! Burke: Right. And if Meredith doesn't approve, then what? Cristina: No, no, no. This is not about getting her approval. It's about... Burke: What? Cristina: Telling her...makes it...makes it...if I mrder someone, she's the person I'd call to help me drag the corpse across the living room floor. Burke: Ok, see now, you're likening someone here to a corpse. I'm done. Cristina: She's my person. (Burke leaves and Cristina's pager goes off) (Rick's OR) Doctor: Removing the bone flap. Izzie: Ready with suction. Mark: Looking good. Izzie: Yes, yes it is. (Izzie's pager goes off) Nurse: Dr. Stevens, it's your pager. Izzie: That's ok. It can wait. Nurse: I think you wanna take this page. (Alex is looking in on Jane Doe, Addison is in the room) Alex: How's she doing? Addison: She's holding steady for now. Anybody claim her yet? Alex: No, she's still a Jane Doe. I'd notice. Addison: What? Alex: If you went missing, I'd notice. (Alex goes to leave and his pager goes off) (George is sitting on the steps near the OR board looking at Chris' picture. He stands up and looks at the board noticing there is a seven year old boy in surgery) (Callie's OR) Callie: All right, I need a little more suction here, please. (George enters) George: Callie? Callie: O'Malley, I'm working. What do you want? George: I read on the board you're doing an internal fixation of the lumber spine on a John Doe from the ferry crash, age 7. Callie: That's right. George: Can I see his face? Callie: I'm in the middle of surgery. George: I know. (He walks over and holds a picture up) George: Is this boy you're patient? (Callie scoffs) I know the pictures half smeared and hard to see. Please tell me it's him, tell me he's been right here under my nose, open on your table all day and not drifting along the bottom of the ocean. Please tell me that. Callie: Hold the picture under my light so I can get a better look. Oh yeah, oh yeah. I could spot those goofy ears anywhere. George: Really? Callie: Really. George: Callie O'Malley, I can't kiss you right now cause you're scrubbed in but tonight when you get home, I am going to... Callie: All right, ok, all right. People lets focus here, George I'm working. George: Yeah. Callie: I'm...I'm working. George: Ok. Callie: So, yeah. Bye. (George's pager goes off and he leaves) (Lisa is standing in the clinic alone when a lady rushes up to her) Lady: Oh my god! Oh my god! You're safe, you're safe! Oh honey, mommy's so sorry she got lost. Lisa! (Meredith's trauma room) Derek: They put a 20 gauge IV in but I think it blew. Bailey: I'll start a central line but you have to get out of the way. Derek: We put 3 milligrams of epi down the ET tube... Bailey: Derek! Derek: ...this was three minutes ago we should push... (Richard enters) Richard: Shepherd, get out! Derek: I think we should push just one atropine...I think I saw some reactivity in the pupils before the atropine and I think...she might have actually had some cardiac... Richard: Shepherd, get out! Derek: We need to put an external pacer on just to be sure. Richard: We need to save her life. You can't do this, we need to do this. Now go! Go. (Derek goes in the hall) Bailey: Ok, she has a new 18 gauge in her left AC push 1 of epi through it. (Burke walks into the hall and peeks in Meredith's room. Derek is sitting in the hall looking devastated and lost) Burke: The chief is working on her, man. Derek: He threw me out. Burke: What do you need? Derek: I need you to go in there. (Burke enters the room) Richard: Give me a new warm blanket her temps still only at 80 degrees. Burke: What can I do? Richard: She needs an ABG. (Monitors start beeping) Richard: Whoa, was that V-fib. Charge to 300. Lets go, lets go, lets go. Clear. (Addison enters) Richard: Back to asystole. Keep compressions going. Addison: Oh, my god. Burke: She's hypothermic. Addison: Uh, have you tried a warm peritoneal lavage? Or even, a continuous bladder lavage with warm fluids? Could do a thoracotomy. Richard: Get back to the ABG. Come on, lets go people. (Derek is sitting in the hall, Mark walks up and looks down at him. Derek nods and Mark sits down next to him. Mark puts his hand on Derek's arm) (Meredith's room. She is still blue) Bailey: How's her temp? Richard: Only up to 81 now. Addison: Come on, Meredith. Don't do this. (A nurse leaves the room and Addison glances out the door to see Mark and Derek sitting in the hall) (Izzie, Alex and George are standing on the other side of a door, looking down the hall at Derek. Cristina walks up) Cristina: It's Meredith? Alex: Yeah. Cristina: Are you sure? Did you see her? Because it could be... (Alex grabs her arm) Alex: It's Meredith. Cristina: Oh. Oh. Oh. Izzie: She will come through this. George: You don't know that. Izzie: She will come through this. George: People die. Izzie: I know people die. People die in front of us everyday. But I believe Meredith will survive this. I believe...I believe...I...I believe in the good. I believe that it's been a hell of year and in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary we will all be ok. I believe a lot of things. I believe that...I believe that Denny is always with me. And I believe that if I eat a tub of butter and no one sees me the calories don't count. And I believe that surgeons who prefer staples over stitches are just lazy. And I believe that you are a man who made a terrible mistake marrying Callie. And I believe that because I am your best friend I can tell you this and we will be ok. I believe even though you made this mistake you will be ok. I believe we survive, George. I believe that believing we survive is what makes us survive. (She's hugs Cristina) Izzie: She's gonna be ok. (Meredith's room) Richard: Push another epi. How many is that? Bailey: This is our fourth room, sir. Burke: We've been here 20 minutes. Addison: Still in asystole. Richard: We're losing her. (Meredith flatlines) (Meredith appears to wake up, coughing and sputtering. She sits up and next to her is Dylan) Dylan: Hi. Meredith: Hey. Am I...? d*ad? (She turns her head and there is Denny) Denny: Damn right you are. Meredith: Holy...	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x16 - Drowning on Dry Land"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x17: Some Kind of Miracle Original Airdate: 2/22/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes & Marti Noxon Directed by: Adam Arkin (ER, people are all injured in the aftermath from the ferry accident) MVO: There are medical miracles. Being worshippers at the alters of science we don't like to believe miracles exist, but they do. (Meredith's room) MVO: Things happen...we can't explain them, we can't control them, but they do happen. (Meredith is still dad) Bailey: Chief, I know the hypothermia is protective to her vital organs but how much longer do you think we can go on like this? Richard: I've seen people last as long as four hours. Bailey: Yeah, but... Richard: No, this is not...this is Ellis Grey's little girl. This is my... Burke: We're all on the same side here, Chief. Bailey: Sir. Richard: Her body temp is at 86 degrees. She's not dad until she's warm and dad. We need to warm her up to 98.6 and start her heart. Bailey: Yes, sir. Richard: Let's do a gastric lavage with warm fluids. (Addison gets paged) Bailey: Addison. Addison: I have to go it's, uh, my Jane Doe. Bailey: Just...they're waiting for you so...whatever you choose to say will... MVO: Miracles do happen in medicine. They happen every day just not always when we need them to happen. (Meredith's afterlife, she is on a gurney staring at Denny and Dylan) Denny: Meredith. She's freaking out. Dylan: She's not freaking out. Denny: People tend to freak out. Dylan: Trust me, she's fine. Denny: Ok, mister, I've been dad longer, I know everything. Dylan: You know what, that's why I don't like to be here with you. Because you don't assess the situation, you just dive right in. Denny: Oh, I'm not the one who got himself all blown up. Dylan: All right, you wanna do this now or you wanna do this later? Denny: Oh, I wanna do this now. Dylan: You wanna do this now? Denny: I will kick you ass anytime. I'm the one with the fresh heart. Dylan: You're gonna kick my... Meredith: This is a brain thing. This is the ketamine neurotransmitter right? Dylan and Denny: No. Meredith: Cause you think if this were my brain doing this, the first person I'd want to be, no offense...(Doc jumps on the bed) Doc! Boy! Good boy! Hi! Hi, buddy! Dylan: Meredith, this is not your brain on drugs. This is death. You are dad. You're really freaking dad, dirt nap dad, no more you dad. Denny: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Way to harsh! Remember we're gonna take it easy. That was not easy. Meredith, you drowned in the Elliot Bay. You remember that? Meredith: Yeah, that sucked. Who's a good boy? Who's the best dog? Dylan: Oh, this is gonna take awhile. Denny: We don't have a while. She's run out of time. Meredith: Who's the best dog? (Addison leaves Meredith's room and Derek is waiting in the hall) Derek: Tell me! Addison: Her temps still only 86. There's still no heartbeat. Were hoping once she warms up... Derek: I wanna go in there. Addison: No. Derek: There's a risk of brain damage. I need to go in there. Addison: Derek, you can't. Not for Meredith, not for anybody. You're in no shape. (Addison walks through the doorway to where the interns are standing) Addison: It's not good. Cristina: Is she still cyanotic? What was her initial temp? What is taking so long? Addison: Dr. Yang! It's not good. They're doing everything they can. You should maybe...prepare yourselves. I have to go, my Jane Doe's awake. Alex: I'm coming with you. Iz, you'll let us know? Cristina: Prepare ourselves? That's what we tell the families before we call time of death. Izzie: She's gonna be ok. George: Sometimes you're wrong. Cristina: Uh-huh. No! Izzie: Cristina. Cristina: I'm not doing this. Izzie: Cristina. (Cristina walks away) Izzie: She's gonna survive this. She's gonna survive this. She's gonna survive this. She's gonna survive this. She's gonna survive this. (Meredith's afterlife) Liz Fallon: Meredith! Meredith! (She looks up and Liz is at the end of the bed) Liz Fallon: I don't know if you remember me. I was your mother's scrub nurse. I died from... Meredith: Liver cancer. (Bonnie walks in and stands at the end of the bed) Meredith: Bonnie? Bonnie: She remembers me. You remember. Liz Fallon: You were a very important patient for her. Meredith: What are all of you doing here? Is this... Bonnie: It's not heaven. Dylan: We're here because you called us here. Meredith: I didn't. Did I? Denny: Tell us about the water, Meredith. (Ellis' room, Olivia is there and Mark enters) Ellis: You do not have the authority to speak to me in that way. You are a bug. Olivia: I need you to hold still. Mark: Go ahead. Olivia: Burke usually writes for Lorazepam... Ellis: You're amateurs. Olivia: ...when she's like this but I don't want to bother him. Ellis: Get me out of this bed. Mark: Do it! Give it to her. Ellis: Who do you think you are? Mark: Sedation should... Ellis: Do you even know what you're doing. Get me Richard. (Jane Doe's room) Addison: I'm Dr. Montgomery, you need this oxygen. I need you to lie back. Jane: No. No. I'm not supposed to be here. Addison: This wasn't in your plan today I get that. But we're trying to take care of your baby. I need you to calm down. Jane: Just talk to my husband. (She looks at Alex) Addison: This is Dr. Karev, he's my intern. Jane: What? You're not...? Alex: You lost your ID. We don't know where your family is yet. Jane: But I know you. You're my... Alex: No, I found you...on the dock...after the accident. Jane: What dock? What accident? What happened? Addison: You were on the ferry. You don't remember? Jane: No. Addison: What about your name? Jane: My name? I don't know my name. I should know my own name. I'm having a baby, I should know my name. (Outside Jane Doe's room) Addison: She doesn't remember anything from before the accident. It could be head trauma. It could be psychological from the shock. Alex: Retro grade amnesia, it could be just...transient, right? Addison: Well, that's the hope. I'm worried about her lungs too. Get a chest x-ray and an ABG. Alex: Ok. Addison: Hey, you ok? You wanna be with your friends? Alex: No, I'm on this. Addison: You sure? Alex: Yeah, it's just Meredith always makes me think...I don't know, screwed up people have a chance. (Meredith's room. She is still dad.) Richard: I'm in. Start the warm fluids. Burke: Hold CPR. Richard: Anything? Burke: The heart is still, no movement. No fibrillation. Richard: Nothing? Burke: Nothing. Bailey: Restarting CPR. (Izzie enters) Richard: Stevens, get out of here! Izzie: I just...oh my god. Bailey: Go back outside and wait with Yang and O'Malley. Izzie: Cristina isn't...um, she left. Burke: She left in the middle of her shift? Where did she go? (Cristina is in the dollar store, she picks up random things including a picture frame) (Meredith's afterlife) Denny: Meredith, I need you to understand. This is important. You can't screw around. Meredith: Doc? Denny: All right, there's no time for that. You don't have the time and we don't have the time. Meredith: I drowned, that's all. I drowned. Bonnie: Meredith, please. Listen to us, you have to listen to us. You have to...oh, no! (Bonnie's stomach starts bleeding) (Bonnie is on a gurney and Meredith's hands are covered in blood) Meredith: I can't find the source of this bleeding. I need gloves and surgical towels. Liz: It happens with Bonnie, baby, you just gotta ride it. Meredith: I can save her. I can start on IV. Dylan: There's no point. Meredith: Go to the OR and get me sterilized surgical instruments. Go! Go! (Dylan walks away and fades into the wall. Suddenly Bonnie is gone and Meredith is left standing in an empty room with Denny.) Denny: Meredith, are you ready to talk about this now or you wanna waste some more time. (Meredith's room) Bailey: It's been over an hour. Is it...? We need to prepare for the possibility that she... Richard: Look, she is young, she is healthy. Her temps going up and it's gonna keep going up and her heart will start again. It's the only possibility I'm prepared for. (Cristina is at Joe's with bags of stuff) Cristina: Do you use moisturizer? Here take this, keep it behind the bar. Joe: Wow, what is this? It smells like something burning. Cristina: It's gingerbread. Joe: Yeah. Cristina: You're not getting this are you? Ok, this is 99 cents. Ok? You can buy anything for 99 cents. It's small, it's um, tiny size, it has cat like creatures on it but it is a chair. For 99 cents you can buy a chair, that's America man. Joe: That's Taiwan, man. You know this ferry things pretty bad. Don't you think you should be... Cristina: I am coping. Ok? I'm coping. So, uh, shut up and look at all my crap. (Bailey and Callie walk into the hall where Izzie and George are waiting) Bailey: Callie, I'm putting you in charge of my interns. Put em to work, anywhere but here. Izzie and George: No, we can't. We want to stay here. Bailey: You're concerned, I understand. There's been a disaster and there's work to be done. Go, now! (Bailey leaves) Callie: All right, they need bodies down in the clinic. Let's go down there. (Callie and George start to walk off but Izzie doesn't move) Callie: Hey, Bailey's right. We can't help Meredith, all we can do is sit around and go crazy. Izzie: I can't...I can't...I need to be here. Callie: Izzie! We're all freaked. We just need to stay out of the way, got it? Let's go. (Alex is in Jane Doe's room) Alex: Do you or your immediate family have a history of cancer? Jane: I don't know. Alex: How bout heart disease or high blood pressure? How bout alcohol or drug use? You don't know any of this do you? Jane: I don't even know the sex of my baby or if I'm married. I have the ring line but I don't have the ring so what does that make me? Alex: I don't...I don't know. Jane: Is it really bad? I mean you look...am I gonna...? Alex: No, no, no. It's um, a friend, she was in the accident too. Jane Doe: I'm sorry. Alex: Yeah...things are tough all over. (The clinic) Sydney: I have no new information about your loved ones. I'm sorry but...we are facing a serious blood shortage. Anyone able to donate should see me. If you're not sure...see me. (Izzie is in the clinic near Callie) Izzie: These need to go to the blood bank for testing thanks. (She hands a cooler to a man and starts looking through bags of blood) Callie: What are those for? Izzie: Meredith is AB. Callie: She's been down a long time, but you know, she's strong. We shouldn't give up. Izzie: I wasn't planning to but thanks. Callie: Ok. Is this stress related or am I doing something specific to piss you off? Because believe me we need to pull together. Izzie: Not we. Callie: What? Izzie: You keep going on about how we need to do this for Meredith and how strong Meredith is like you know her. Callie: I do know her. Izzie: No! George, Cristina and me, we know her. We're her family. We were here long before you and George started fooling around. Callie: Hey! He is my husband! Izzie: Stop saying that like it means something. It is a piece of paper. You act like it gives you history or weight. Callie: Enough, enough! I will not be run off. I am here, George wants me here. And if you can accept that, that I love him to, then maybe we could be, I don't know, friends. Or you can keep on the way you are and be that person that George used to know. Izzie: You don't get to decide that. George decides. Callie: Oh, I know what he'll decide. And if I were you I would think about it long and hard because you cannot afford to lose another friend. Not when people around you keep... Izzie: Keep dropping like flies? Is that what you were about to say? (Meredith's afterlife. She and Denny are talking near a nurse's station) Meredith: So, all of you just disappear at will. (Bonnie appears) Denny: What happened? Meredith: I drowned, that's it. Bonnie: Really? Then why are we here? Meredith: Again. Bonnie: I can't do this, if you're gonna keep saying your drowned. Do you have any idea how much that hurts? Meredith: You know, when you came into the OR you were so brave, so strong. Bonnie: I was in shock. And you guys doped me up. And you know, in retrospect, what happened to me, really sucked. I was young and beautiful and in love. I was getting married in four months and then I was dying. And here you are all happy and perky to be dad. Meredith: You think I want to be here? I swam, I fought hard, the water was cold. Denny: All right, but that thing in the tub, what was that? Meredith: It wasn't anything it was...you see me in the tub? Denny: I do not see women in the bathtub. I wish I saw women in the...we know things. Liz: You had to think about it. No daughter of Ellis Grey could... Meredith: This is so not an Ellis Grey thing. Denny: Ahh, it's a Derek thing. Meredith: I would never... Bonnie: You would. I know crappy things have happened to you but how can you be a surgeon and have so little respect for life. How...oh come on. (She starts bleeding again) (Derek sits down in a waiting room) Man: Who you here for? Derek: What? Man: I'm waiting on my wife, car ht her. Can you believe that, on the ferry. She was run over on the ferry. They haven't said much. Hard as hell to get any of these people to talk to ya. Derek: Yeah, I'm, uh, my girlfriend was there too. And I don't know...I don't know what's gonna happen. Man: It's out of our hands, it's up to the doctors now. Derek: Yeah. Yeah. Man: What's her name? Derek: Meredith. Man: I'll put her in my prayers. Derek: Thanks. (Meredith's afterlife. Bonnie is on the floor bleeding again. Denny just sits there watching) Meredith: I need to get in there and find the source of this bleeding. Denny: Uh, see Mer, it's just gonna happen again. Meredith: Where is something to wipe up this blood? (Bonnie disappears and Dylan appears) Dylan: Fool me once... Denny: Yeah, show up now and be a smart ass. We have a job to do, where are you? Dylan: It's a waste of time, she's either gonna get it or she's not. Meredith: Get what? Dylan: The way I see it, it doesn't matter how you got here. You're either in this thing or you're not, there's no in between. And cowboy here can get pissed off because for all his tough talk, he's no different than Bonnie. He's stuck. Meredith: And you're not? Dylan: No. Denny: Oh, please. Dylan: I had a good life. I helped when I could and when that shell went off in my hands I completed my task. I saved you. (Meredith's room) Richard: What about another epi? Bailey: We've been pushing epi for an hour and a half now. Richard: Check another lead. Bailey: Asystole in three leads sir. Richard: What about her temp? Bailey: Down to 86 degrees. Richard: 86? It's 86 now? It was 89. Bailey: After drop phenomenon. (Ellis' room. Derek is sitting in a chair) Ellis: Water! Get me some water. (Derek gets her a drink of water) Derek: You broke her. You called her ordinary. You taught her time and time again that nothing she does ever is good enough. Every good thing that Meredith is happened despite you. She may not survive this. That's on you. That is on you. (Addison is at the door) Addison: Derek! (As Derek walks away you can see a moment of realization on Ellis' face) Derek: That woman is... Addison: She's cold. There's no question but she can't help herself and she certainly can't fix Meredith. Derek: It's my fault. Addison: Don't Derek: See, I knew what was going on and I wasn't there for her. Addison: You are human. Derek: She was pulling away from me and I just...it's just... Addison: You think...you think that she went in the water on purpose? Derek: She knows how to swim, she's a good swimmer. Addison: Derek, you don't know that's she...no, you do not get to break down, you don't get to fall apart. Not when there's still a chance and there still is a chance Derek. Derek: Ok. Addison: Ok. (Meredith's afterlife, she enters an OR and starts going through drawers. Denny speaks to her from the gallery) Denny: What are you looking for? Meredith: Something strong. The next time Bonnie decides to bleed out I'm gonna dope her to high heaven and then I'm gonna... Denny: Why are we still talking about her? Meredith: If I could find the source... Denny: She can't be saved. Meredith: This isn't fair. I could save her. If you'd just give me a chance I could save her. (She turns and Denny is now in the OR) Denny: What happened in that water? Meredith: I swam. I fought. Denny: No you didn't! And you can't stay here Meredith. Meredith: I don't want to! Denny: Yeah, you do. It's easier. But you can't because George's dad died. Because Izzie lost me. And Cristina...when she was nine she was in a car accident with her father and he bled out right in front of her while they waited for an ambulance to arrive. And Alex... Meredith: Stop! Denny: They are barely breathing. This will break them. None of them deserves that. And this...this is the big one. See pay attention! Do you know what kind of miracle it is that Derek is who he is? Do you know how rare it is that someone like even exists. He's still an optimist. He still believes in true love and magic and soul mates. He's waiting for you and if you don't come back from this, you will change who he is. Meredith: (Crying) Oh, God. (She looks up and she is alone) (Derek is still outside Ellis' room when she starts flatlining) (Meredith's room) Bailey: What about a cardio-pulmonary bypass? Come on! We can do it here. Richard: Page Burke and the surgical team. Get them here now. (Joe's bar) Cristina: This is...this is quality sudoku, Joe. This is like two dollars worth of sudoku. Joe: Good to know. (Joe walks away and Burke sits down next to her) Burke: Been no change. Thought you should know. Cristina: No kidding. Burke: You know, some do come back from this. Cristina: I am not a civilian. I know the science here. It's drinking time. Burke: Not yet! You have a responsibility to Meredith. Cristina: Uh-huh, I don't do this stuff. You should know. Burke: You were there when I needed you. Cristina: After. After I knew you were gonna make it. Ok. I not proud, ok? I just...I can't. I can't go back there and watch. (His pager foes off) Burke: Listen to me, this is about you and the woman you call your person and you do know the science here. And if she dies and you are sitting here when that happens I can't see you coming back from that. Come and say goodbye to your friend. (Meredith's afterlife, she is sitting on the floor in the hallway with Denny) Meredith: I was swimming, I was fighting. And then I thought, just for a second, I thought, what's the point. And then I let go, I stopped fighting. Don't tell anybody. Denny: Ok. (Denny stops and smiles) Meredith: What? (He motions her to wait) Denny: Izzie. Meredith: You can see her? Denny: No. Sometimes we'll be in the same place at exactly the same time and...I can almost hear her voice. It's like I'm touching her. I like to believe she knows I'm there. That's you get, that's it. Moments with the people you love and they'll move on and you'll want them to move on. But still, Meredith, that's all you get. Moments. Meredith: Is this really happening? Denny: I don't know. This is your afterlife, not mine. (She looks up and Denny is gone and the water starts to creep up around her and she has flashes over herself drowning) (George walks past Izzie in the hall) Izzie: Any change? George: No. Izzie: George, come on. We can't do this today, not today. George: What the hell did you say to my wife? Izzie: I didn't say anything... George: I saw her face, I saw her face. Izzie: I didn't say anything, she was... George: She didn't say anything but why, why would you pick now to throw down? Izzie: I didn't. I...I can't lie about how I feel. George: Actually you can. You can, people lie all the time. They hold their tongues and they wait. You should hold your tongue because if I'm not making a mistake you're going to look like a jerk and if I am, I'm gonna need you. I need you and you keep taking that away. (Ellis' room) Derek: Ok, put on the CO2 monitor. Did you pager Dr. Burke? Tyler: He's in trauma 2 doing cardio pulmonary bypass. Derek: On, Meredith Grey? Tyler: Yes, sir. Derek: All right, push one of atropine. (Meredith's room) Bailey: Billy, what's her temp? Billy: We're up to 96. Richard: It's good, good, all right. Bailey: Now we just have to get her heart beating. Burke: Ok, draw an ABG, push one of epi, a gram of mac and an amp of calcium. (Meredith's afterlife, she enters the ER where Denny, Liz and Bonnie are) Meredith: I don't wanna be here. I wanna go back. Bonnie: We were told there wasn't a lot of time. Meredith: I'm out of time? Liz: Well, were not sure baby. Meredith: Oh god! I can't...I want...I had intimacy issues. Denny: Yeah. Meredith: Do you know how stupid that seems now? Denny: Yeah, I do. Meredith: It's not enough. It's not enough, just a whiff of Derek or Cristina...I need to go back. Please, I can't...I can't. (Ellis' room, Derek is performing CPR) Derek: You're not gonna die on me today, not today. Defib, give me the paddles. Clear. (Meredith's room) Richard: How many epi's is that? Bailey: Six. Richard: What's the eternal pacer? Burke: It's not catching. Richard: Billy, what's the external body temp. Billy: 98 Richard: So she's warm. Burke: Yes. Richard: And dad. Bailey: V-fib, that looks like v-fib. Richard: Shock her at 300. Bailey: Charge Richard: Clear. Bailey: You can not give up, you understand me? Do you know how much time and effort and energy and resources and...drugs...you cannot give up. Turning the pacer up to max. Richard: If there was any ounce of activity the pacer would have picked it up. Bailey: She's been on bypass for almost an hour. (Cristina enters) Bailey: Cristina. (Meredith's afterlife) Meredith: Oh, I can't...I can't breathe. Bonnie: This will pass. Meredith: It won't. It feels like... (She looks up and sees Ellis walking through the hall in her scrubs) Meredith: Mom? (Denny and Meredith walk into the hall. Ellis is at the other end) Denny: Go! Go, Meredith. (Meredith's room. Cristina touches her feet.) Cristina: Try again. Try again! Bailey: Ok, one more round of ACLS drugs. Richard: One more. (Meredith's afterlife. She is walking towards her mother) (Ellis' room) Derek: Still V-fib? Ok, charge to 300. Clear. (Meredith's afterlife) Ellis: You shouldn't be here. Meredith: Neither should you. Ellis: Just keep going. Don't be a damn...(They hug) You are...you are anything but ordinary, Meredith. Now run! Run! (Meredith's room. She is still blue) (Ellis' room) Derek: Is the lidocaine in? Doctor: Yes. Derek: Ok, holding compressions. Come on. Come on, just come on. Come on. (Meredith's afterlife, she turns and runs) (Meredith's room. The monitor beeps) Bailey: Sinus brady. Richard: Ok. Bailey: We got a heartbeat. (Burke listens) Burke: We got it. (Seattle scenes) (Meredith's room, they take out the tube and Addison enters) Addison: She's breathing on her own? Bailey: She is. Addison: She's been down a long time. Do we know the brain function yet? Bailey: We don't know. Addison: Derek? Does... Bailey: I haven't paged him yet. I wanted...I'm giving her more time. (Bailey and Addison leave. Cristina is now alone with Meredith. She is still touching her feet when Meredith tries to talk) Cristina: Did you just say something? Did you just speak? (Cristina stands at Meredith's side and touches her face) Cristina: Ok, Mer, I don't understand you. Try...try again...try again for me, ok? What...I...I can't? Please, please don't be. Your brain works, ok? So all you need to do is form a word, please. Meredith: Ouch. Cristina: Oh, god. Oh, hi! I'm getting married to Burke! Not that, that should be anywhere on your list of thought right now. But just in case you slip on the hall later or...You are the one person I wanted to tell. Thank you for not dying. (George and Izzie stand outside the room with Bailey. Alex walks up. They are all emotional but happy that she is alive) (Derek stands outside Meredith's room and is there when she wakes up) Derek: Hey. Meredith: Hey. (He walks in and kisses her) Derek: Meredith... Meredith: My mother's d*ad isn't she? Derek: Yes. Meredith: It's ok, I think. I think it's ok. (Addison is at the nurse's station watching on when Mark walks up) Mark: So she's ok? Addison: Yeah. We never had that. He never felt that way about me. Mark: I did. Addison: You know sometimes I think what a waste it is to throw away all that history. Mark: I'm flawed. I'm a wreck. But you...wasn't a game. Addison: 60 days. Go 60 days with sex, no other women, cold turkey then maybe I'll believe you. Mark: So I only have sex with you? Addison: No, no sex with anyone. Grow up Mark, find another way to scratch the itch. Mark: Say I do, you'll give us another try. The real thing, the couple thing? No sneaking around, no bootie calls? Addison: If you make it, yes. Mark: Ok, we're on. Oh, Addison, if I'm not having sex neither are you. Addison: Who would possibly be having sex with? (Alex enters Jane Doe's room) Alex: How you doing? Jane: I hurt all over. How's your friend. Alex: Ah, she pulled through. Jane: Good, that's great. And nobody's... Alex: Claimed you? No, nothing yet. Jane: So we still don't know anything? Alex: Oh, no, not so. We learned a lot about you today. We know that your heart is healthy. We know that your blood type is B positive. You probably eat pretty healthy because your cholesterol is excellent and you're not diabetic. You lungs don't look like smoker's lungs and you don't drink alcohol on ferries in the morning. And your about 32 years old. And your baby is a girl. Jane: Really? A girl? Alex: Yeah. Jane: I think I am married. I feel married. Alex: Yeah? Jane: Yeah. Alex: See, now I know more about you than some of my closest friends. Jane: That's pathetic. (Bailey is in the clinic) Bailey: You held it down. Thanks. Sydney: What you did today with Meredith. Everybody's talking, chief resident talk. Ok, I'm talking, to myself. But...you're gonna give me a run for my money. (Sydney walks away) Bailey: Yeah, I am. (Locker room) Izzie: I let you down. And I get it if you don't trust me right now but...please George. It's me, it's us. Please. (George walks away) MVO: At the end of a day like this, a day when so many prayers are answered and so many aren't... (Ellis' room) Richard: You've been gone a long time. I know you think you died when the Alzheimer's started. I know it's a relief to you, I know. But It doesn't feel like a relief to me. I'm not relieved. I miss the sound of your voce, I miss talking to you, I miss you. I dyed my hair...for the ladies. (Meredith and Derek are laying in bed together) MVO: We take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes against all odds, against all logic, we touch. (Izzie is leaving and stops in the hall suddenly. Denny and Izzie are in the same place at the same time) Denny: Izzie. (It is as if they both know that they have touched. Izzie smiles and leaves for the day as Denny smiles and walks into the light)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x17 - Some Kind of Miracle"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x18: Scars and Souvenirs Original Airdate: 3/15/2007 Written by: Debora Cahn Directed by: James Frawley (Izzie is in the shower) MVO: People have scars in all sorts of unexpected places. Like secret roadmaps of their personal histories... (Izzie gets out of the shower and Alex enters the bathroom) MVO: ...diagrams of all their old wounds. Izzie: Alex, God! Alex: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've seen it all before. Izzie: What the hell are you doing here? Alex: Moving in. Izzie: What? (Alex leaves) MVO: Most of our old wounds heal leaving nothing behind but a scar, but some of them don't. (Izzie busts into Meredith's bedroom where she and Derek are sleeping) Izzie: Alex is moving into this house? Meredith: He's taking George's room. Izzie: Why? Derek: I was asleep just a minute ago. Izzie: Yeah, and I was naked in the bathroom when Alex walked in. I'm lucky I didn't come out of the shower to find him peeing all over the seat. Derek: And we're up. Izzie: What's wrong with where he was living before? Meredith: I don't know where he was living before. Izzie: Probably a whore house. I can't have him living in the room next door, it's weird. Meredith: People are what matters. Alex is one of our people, we can't leave him out in the cold. Izzie: People are matters? You don't like people. Is this about your mother. Meredith: No, I had a near death whatever...I was dad and now I'm not so...I'd like to use this chance I've been given to be more positive. People are what matters. Paint with all the colors of the wind. Izzie: Oh, ok. You're crazy now. Meredith: I'm alive. Izzie: Yeah, ok. (Izzie walks into the hall as Alex is about to walk into the bathroom) Izzie: No, no. I'm not done in there yet. (She pulls up her towel) Alex: Oh, no don't worry, not looking, not interested. MVO: Some wounds we carry with us everywhere... (George and Callie's hotel room) MVO: ...and though the cuts long gone... George: No, she's selfish is Izzie's problem. MVO: ...the pain still lingers. George: She's not selfish she's generous. But she's self-absorbed. Her problem is that she doesn't see other people's perspectives. Callie: Hey, give me a bite. George: It's weird because she's so ridiculously compassionate with her patients, you think she'd roll some of that off with her friends. But... Callie: How bout we don't talk about her anymore. George: That's a fine idea. (They kiss) (Seattle scenes) (Locker room) Izzie: He's in George's room and when George's stupid marriage crashes and burns he's gonna wanna move back in and he won't be able to. His life will be in a shambles, his finally realize that his dad is dad, he'll realize he made a fool of himself by marrying someone he doesn't really love and he'll have no place to go. Is that what you want? Meredith: That's exactly what I want. (Alex, George and Cristina enter) Alex: Huh, look who found some clothes. George: How you doing? Meredith: Ok, everybody, lets do this once. I'm fine. She's cremated, I picked out a beautiful urn and she's hanging out in the back of my closet. Any more questions about my dad mother or can we get back to work? Cristina: Does anyone know who the new chief candidate is? (Bailey enters) George: Chief's bringing in a ringer in case he doesn't want to give the job to either one of your boyfriends. Bailey: O'Malley, your with Shepherd today. Yang, Dr. Montgomery. Stevens, to the clinic. Karev, Jane Doe. Grey, scut. Meredith: Once again, I am fine. Bailey: You can tell everybody your fine till your blue in the face. Your mom died and you almost joined her, you're taking it easy. (Jane Doe's room) Jane: Anybody come looking for me yet? Alex: No match on your prints, no hits from missing persons plus... Jane: My face is hard to identify. Alex: The second they find something out about your identity, I'm gonna come tell ya. Jane: Dr. Sloan says I need surgery on my eye. Alex: He just wants to make sure you don't lose vision there completely. Jane: But Dr. Montgomery I should wait a day or two because of the baby. I don't know how I'm supposed to take that. Alex: Yeah, well, surgery can be hard on a baby but you're gonna be on a fetal monitor the whole time so if anything goes wrong we'll catch it. Jane: Thank you. I really...I really appreciate you taking the time to...you're all I've got in this place. (Izzie is in the clinic with a wr vet) Izzie: Does that hurt? Mr. Scofield: Of course it hurts, don't poke it like that. Izzie: Has the lump been there a long time? Mr. Scofield: I got sht 50 years ago, it's been there a long time. Izzie: But it hasn't bothered you till recently? Mr. Scofield: It bothers me there's a bllet in there. It'd bother you too but it didn't start hurting till a couple months ago. Izzie: You think it's a bllet? Mr. Scofield: I don't think lady, I know. I wanted it out. But the Army doctor's didn't want to go get it. So, they let me keep it in for half a life time. Izzie: Let's get some pictures and see if you're right. Mr. Scofield: I know I'm right, save your film. Just get me something for the pain Izzie: Mr. Scofield, I'm sure you are right but we're still gonna do this my way. (Derek enters Helen's room) Helen: Derek Derek: There she is. How was your flight? Helen: They didn't feed me, which I didn't understand. Derek: Dr. O'Malley, Dr. Crawford, she's a big pain in the ass. George: Pleasure. Helen: He says that because we worked together in New York and I was the only one who never had a crush on him. Derek: No, I don't buy that. What do we know O'Malley? George: Dr. Crawford has a pariphalseum meningioma along the superior saginal sinus. You've operated three times, keeps on coming back. Derek: Yeah, it's in dangerous territory so we leave a little bit of the tumor behind each time and we go back every couple of years and tune it up. Helen: But this is the last time. Derek: Sorry? Helen: This is it Derek. I'm done after this. Derek: Helen Helen: The recovery takes forever and it's not like when Jake was around. I go through this by myself now. Derek: Don't throw in the towel. Helen: I'm looking at the situation as it is. I am going to do this now then I am going to spend the next two years of my life lying on a beach enjoying the sun. Derek: Helen. Helen: Stop looking at me like I klled your cat, the decision is made. (Izzie walks up to a group of people who are gathered outside a conference room) Izzie: You guys seen Bailey? What are we doing? George: Uh, checking out the new chief candidate. Meredith: Chiefs in with the ringer. We're lurking, in a way that was subtle when there were two of us but isn't now that they're twelve. Cristina: I heard it was someone from Stanford. All the professors there loved me. Alex: They loved you? Cristina: I was a great student. (Burke walks up) Burke: How you doing? Meredith: Oh, I'm fine sir. Thank you. George: She doesn't like when you ask. Cristina: The ringer is in there with the chief. Izzie: Yeah and whoever it is loves Cristina cause everyone at Stanford just loved Cristina. Cristina: Shut up. Burke: She's a good student, nothing to be ashamed of. Cristina: Thank you. Burke: Bit of a kiss ass but that's hard to control. George: Ok, they're coming out, look away. (Richard walks out with Colin) Burke: That's Colin Marlow. (Cristina looks nauseous) Alex: Like the Marlow transplant? Burke: Like the greatest thing in cardio-thoracic surgery in a generation. Um, Dr. Marlow, I'm Preston Burke. I'm a great admirer of your work, sir. Particularly the... (Colin spots Cristina) Colin: Yes, thank you. Would you excuse me for a second. (Colin walks over to Cristina) Colin: Well, you gonna give me a hug or what? (Colin and Cristina hug including some hand on butt action that everyone sees) (Cristina and Burke are walking through the hall) Burke: So, what was that exactly? Cristina: He was my professor, we were close. Burke: Well, close appears to be something of an understatement. Cristina: It was a long time ago. Burke: I talk about him all the time, you never thought to mention it? Cristina: Well, um, I didn't think about every guy I ever slept with. I have a hysterectomy to prep. Are we done with the curiosity? Great! (Meredith and Izzie are walking through the hall) Izzie: What are you doing tonight? Cause I don't wanna go home and find Alex there and it's just the two of us and it's weird and awkward and he doesn't know if he should talk to me or not to talk to me. It's just such a weird situation. I'd rather it be group awkwardness you know... (Meredith sees Thatcher and Susan Grey at the end of the hall and ducks into a closet.) Izzie: I don't wanna just be standing there staring at him...(She looks around and realizes that Meredith is gone) Meredith? (Cristina walks up) Cristina: Have you seen Montgomery? Izzie: No. Hey! What you doing tonight? You wanna come over, you and I never really get a chance to hang out. It might be kinda fun. (Cristina sees Colin walking down the hall and ducks into the same closet Meredith is hiding in) Alex just moved in which was Meredith's brilliant idea and he has a thing for me so it's...(She sees that Cristina is gone) What the hell? (Inside the closet) Meredith: This is my hiding spot. My father is out there, go somewhere else. Cristina: I need this closet Meredith. Meredith: Colin Marlow. Cristina: Yes, he was my professor. We were close. Meredith: He had his hand on your ass, I sure hope you were close. (Colin and Susan are now standing outside the closet) Susan: Did you see somebody go in there? Colin: I did, someone's hiding from me. Susan: Yes, I think someone's hiding from me too. (Inside the closet) Meredith: You were that girl, huh? The girl who slept with the professor. We had one in my class, she only got to the radiologist though. No one got near the cardio guy... Cristina: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I scored big. You know what, hide in the bathroom. Meredith: My awkwardness with my father is well established. You and the cardio god on the other hand have loads to catch up on. Cristina: I don't wanna talk to the cardio god. (Outside) Colin: You know we can hear you in there, right? Loud and clear. (They open the door) Cristina: Oh, hi. Colin: Hi. Susan: Excuse me. Colin: Yeah. Susan: May I. Meredith: Oh, I was just leaving actually. Susan: We heard about your mother. I'm so sorry. Meredith: Thank you. Susan: There wasn't a funeral or anything? Meredith: Oh, she didn't want that. I hope everything's ok with the baby. Susan: Oh, we're not here with the baby. We're here because we wanted to make sure that you were all right. Meredith: Oh, oh, that's sweet but we don't have to do this. I'm not in shock, I'm not racked with grief, I'm just moving on. Susan: But you're hiding in a broom closet. Meredith: Well, if you could just move my father. Susan: I sent him to go get some coffee. But we'd really like to make dinner or something...for you. He's been really worried about you, and he's the family you have left Meredith. Meredith: I don't see it that way. Susan: When is this gonna stop. He made some mistakes but he's not a monster. He's just an inarticulate person who spills food on himself a lot. Have dinner with us, tonight? I'll make some chili, the whole thing will be over in an hour. Think you can do that? (Colin and Cristina are walking through the hall) Colin: I can't believe you hid in a closet when you saw me coming. If it wasn't just tragic, it might be the most adorable thing I've ever seen. Cristina: You could have warned me. Colin: I thought, Cristina Yang wouldn't hide in the closet because she doesn't want to talk to me which clearly she doesn't cause she fled like a roach in sunlight when she saw me coming. Cristina: You know I didn't flee, I was...I have to work to do. I'm not a professional note taker anymore. Colin: You grew your hair. It's lovely. Cristina: Don't flirt with me, I have a person. Colin: Really, who? Cristina: Preston Burke. Colin: You never change, it's really adorable. Cristina: Shut up! It is a real relationship. Colin: I bet it is. Cristina: I'm marrying him. Colin: Good. Congratulations. I'm being genuine. It's wonderful. Can I give you a congratulatory hug? Cristina: Don't touch my ass. (Helen's room) Helen: My stomach is growling. George: Sorry, we can't let you eat before the surgery. Helen: That's ok. I stayed at the Archfield last night. I had them make me breakfast at midnight. George: You should try the French toast. It'll blow your mind. Helen: Breakfast at the Archfield on an intern's salary? George: Yeah, I kinda live there at the moment. My wife gets a deal. Helen: That's one hell of a deal. (George is in the x-ray room with Callie) George: So, our room service bill, at the Archfield, is that part of the deal? Callie: Yeah, sure. George: I mean, breakfast alone is what fifty bucks a day and they still only charge us $400 a week? Callie: Sometimes I pay them more for room service. George: Ok, well then just tell me how much it is and we'll split it like the rest. Callie: Don't worry about it, George. George: No, come on, I'm not gonna have you pay for all the food. Just tell me how much the room service bill is. Callie: We pay about $800 a week. George: DOLLARS? Callie: I told you not to worry about it. George: You can't afford that. Callie: Yes I can. George: How? I'm your husband now, you're supposed to tell me this stuff. Callie: Ok, just come here. All right, my parents have a lot of money and so I have more money than I make. And we don't have a special deal through family friends at the Archfield, I just...I pay for it. George: How much? Callie: $2500 a week. George: You're an heiress. Callie: Ok, see this is why I don't tell people. George: No, you're an heiress. Callie: No, stop talking, no just don't. Ok, stop talking, stop talking. I mean it. I didn't tell you because my parents money has affected every single relationship in my life and so I've stopped talking about it and living it. George: No, no wait. Wait, so I've been paying you $200 a week for what fun? Callie: No, I use it to tip housekeeping. George: Great! I'm glad I could pitch in. Is there anything else huge I should know about like this? Callie: I used to have a pet ferret for nine years. George! Oh great. (Helen's room) Derek: Now stop distracting the staff. Helen: You're pushy, anybody ever tell you that? Derek: Um, so what do you think of a saginal sinus bypass? Helen: Have you ever scrubbed in on a saginal sinus bypass, Dr. O'Malley? George: No. Helen: It's what they call "big balls" surgery. Apparently, I have a doctor with... Derek: It's been very successful. Helen: If the patient doesn't stroke out. Derek: If it works the tumor's all gone. We never have to go back in there again. Helen: If it doesn't work, I'm dad. Derek: If you refuse to come back in two years, you're dad anyway. Helen: That's a decision I can live with. Derek: That is not a decision I can live with. O'Malley, go find her labs. So, what do you think, huh? Two years on a beach and then what? After you piss away your savings, your memory goes, motor skills deteriorate and you're dying a very slow miserable painful death... Helen: Derek Derek: You're gonna call me up and ask me why we didn't do something when we had the chance. Now that is not something I can live with. Not when we can do something right now to prevent it. (Mr. Scofield's room) Izzie: Well, it looks like the bllet has damaged your scapula. Mr. Scofield: No wonder it hurts. Callie: How did you get sht, sir? Mr. Scofield: Korea, garden spot, makes a nice vacation. Can I get a damn pain kller? Richard: I think we'll do you one better, were gonna take it out. Mr. Scofield: My bllet? Richard: There was no reason to remove it when you first got ht, but now it's infected, it's working it's way into your scapula and we can't have that. Mr. Scofield: I need to see that bllet. Callie: What, are you gonna frame it? Mr. Scofield: No, smarty pants. I was fragged a couple of weeks before it all ended. Izzie: Fragged? Richard: sht by one of his own men. Mr. Scofield: I made a decision and they didn't like it and then what do you know, we're facing enemy fre and I take a ht from the wrong side of the line. I could never prove it but we could prove it now, when you pull the damn thing out of me. Get me my bllet. Richard: Just calm down Mr. Scofield. Mr. Scofield: Do you know what it's like when your own men turn on you? Richard: It's not a good feeling. (Callie and Izzie share a look) (Meredith enters the office where Derek is) Meredith: I just agreed to have dinner at my father's house, tonight. And, Cristina slept with Colin Marlow. Derek: The Marlow transplant, Marlow? Meredith: They had a thing when she was a student. How can I have a meal at my father's house? Derek: He slept with Cristina? Meredith: Derek! Derek: Oh, right, ok, um, sorry. Have dinner at your house. It's your place, I'll come. I'll be your wing man, it'll be fun. (She gives him a look) Ok, it won't be fun. It'll be...it'll be fine. They're your family. Meredith: Why does everyone assume that? Derek: Cause you have to have a family whether you like them or not. (Addison and Mark are standing at a nurse's station. He checks out a woman as she walks by) Addison: Thought we had a deal? Mark: We agreed I wouldn't sleep with anybody for two months, we didn't say I wouldn't look. You didn't think I'd hold out? Addison: No, I didn't. Mark: You're worth it. Addison: You bet your ass I am. (Meredith and George are having lunch) George: She's rich, totally rich. Boatloads of money. Meredith: George, that's fantastic. George: No, it's...it's not fantastic. (Izzie walks up and sits down) Izzie: Cristina did Colin Marlow! Meredith: Callie's rich. George: Don't talk to her about it. Izzie: Her? I'm sorry, I don't have a name anymore? George: Don't tell anyone, those were my words. Izzie: So, she's rich. George: Just shut up about it. Do you think that's possible? (George leaves) Izzie: If you give me the "people is what matters" thing again, I will kll you. (Cristina sits down) Izzie: Colin Marlow! Was it good? Was he good? Did he make you a better lovah? Cristina: Do you remember all the other times I've talked to you about my sex life? Izzie: No. Cristina: Exactly. (Alex sits down) Alex: Did I miss anything about her doing the old guy? Izzie: She's not talking. Alex: Oh, she'll talk. Meredith: So, I was supposed to be back in the game today but instead I'm planning dinner for my father in my dad mother's house. I don't cook, how am I supposed to cook for them? Izzie: I will make your stupid dinner. So, were there any little blue pills involved? Or, is he untouched by time? Alex: Dude, that's just wrong, don't answer that. Meredith: Because I am your friend I will show up at your house 45 minutes into the dinner with a fake crisis. So, if it's unbearable you can abort. Meredith: Oh, thank you. Izzie: Come on, he's not a young man. He wasn't getting a little help? Poppin the pill? Dad's best friend? Come on, you're gonna give me nothing, after everything we've been through? Nothing? Cristina: It's a miracle drug. (To Alex) And someday it'll save your life. (Colin is looking at the OR board when Derek walks up) Derek: Dr. Marlow, Derek Shepherd, neuro. Colin: Ahh. Derek: I'm doing a saginal sinus bypass today if you'd like to observe. (Burke walks up) Colin: Really? That's quite a procedure... Burke: That's a good trick but if you're really interested to see what this hospital can do, I'm performing an arterial switch operation for a TGA this afternoon. Colin: If you gentlemen are trying to intimidate the competition, it's working. Derek: Good. Colin: I'll see both of you in surgery. (Colin walks away) Derek: Colin Marlow. Burke: The one and only. Derek: He...? Burke: Yes. Derek: With...? Burke: Yes. Derek: Wow. Burke: Indeed. Derek: Yeah. (Jane Doe's OR) Mark: Suction. No, not like you're driving a tractor, slowly. Better. Alex: What's the chance she wakes up and remembers everything? Mark: I wouldn't count on it. Alex: Dr. Sloan, the baby's having decels. Mark: Are you sure? Sometimes the monitors not on right, you get a false read. (Alex lifts the sheet) Alex: She's got vaginal bleeding. That baby's in distress. Mark: Damn it. Page Dr. Montgomery, now! (Burke's surgery) Colin: You're making an honest woman of Cristina Yang. That's...that's impressive. I always thought she was collecting us like baseball cards. Burke: Baseball cards? Colin: She's like an authority figure, someone with something to teach her, but I never thought she would actually commit. She used to say to me that she thought marriage was for the weak and undirected. I made a number of marriage proposals, seemed the polite thing to do. Such a long time together, but she wouldn't have it. Burke: All what time? You were just having a fling with a student. Colin: Fling? Cristina and I were together for three years. (Burke and Cristina are in the stairwell) Cristina: The problem that I slept with my professor or that I was committed enough to keep at it for three years? Burke: No, you told him that you thought marriage was idiotic institution... Cristina: It is. Burke: Then why did you say yes? Cristina: Cause I wanted to make you happy. Burke: Happy? Cristina: You know, I'll do a lot of things to make you happy. Do I give a crap about a ceremony with a dress and a flautist? No! But I'm happy to do it, if it'll make you happy. Burke: Heartwarming. Thanks. (Addison, Mark and Alex leave the OR. Mark and Addison are in a yelling match.) Addison: You couldn't have waited one day? Mark: She was 40% vision compromised in her right eye, it would have been gone tomorrow. Addison: No, it's would actually but there's a snazzy new chief candidate marching around the hall today and you needed to be a hero. That's what needed to happen today. Mark: The patient was fine, Addison. The baby's still in her uterus and she's not losing an eye. Every surgery is risky, the patient chose this one. (Derek walks up) Addison: Karev, don't just stand there. The patient's baby was in distress, go, stay with her. Derek: Something happen with Jane Doe? Mark: Yeah, she can see and Addison's got a problem with it. Addison: He rushed her into surgery and she almost lost the baby. I had to sew her cervix shut. Mark: The complications had nothing to do with the surgery. Addison: Why? Why do you think Mark moved so quickly, Derek? Do you think it's because a piece of the orbital bone was floating towards the brain? Derek: Well, I think it's because Mark wants a promotion. Mark: You're not her husband, this isn't your patient, stay out of it! (Richard has walked up) Richard: What the hell do you people think you're doing? You're supposed to be the leadership of this hospital, screaming about a patient in the hallway? Are you out of your minds? (Helen's OR) Colin: Tough procedure. Derek: Mmm. Colin: It's a bold choice. Derek: We've been fighting this one for a while. I'm hoping this will be the end of it. (Monitor starts beeping) What happened? Doctor: End title CO2 just dropped from 30 to 16. Bagging manually. Colin: ...is showing air in the left ventricle. George: O2 stats down to 89. Derek: Aspirate the central line. Colin: Bradycardic. Derek: Push one of atropine. George: There's no air in the central line. Derek: All right, level her out, I'm gonna flood the field. Colin: Asystole. Derek: Push one milligram of epi. Start compressions. Go, go, get in there, get in there, do it. Come on. (Mr. Scofield's OR) Callie: That things been in there since the Korean wr? Richard: He's lucky it didn't travel down to his aorta. Ok, little suction there. Almost...I got it. Make sure we get that back, the patient wants it. Izzie: He's got a warped sense of nostalgia. Callie: Hmm, I get it. If they pulled a bllet out of me, I'd want it cast in gold and mounted on my wall. Izzie: Yeah, well, you can afford it. (Izzie realizes too late that she should have kept her mouth shut) Richard: A little more suction, lets get ready to close. (Helen's OR) Derek: She's not responding. I'm gonna open her up. Colin: Open cardiac massage? You're a neurosurgeon. Derek: You have no privileges in this hospital. Get my glasses off. Nurse: Should we page Dr. Burke? Derek: No, I got it. Colin: Cross clamp...you don't want air in the cerebral arteries. Derek: Yeah, I got it. Give me a ten blade. Ten blade, quickly please. O'Malley, get over here. Let's roll her, ready, 1, 2, 3, go. Ok, rib spreader. Scissors. Massage the heart, O'Malley. I need to aspirate. Colin: Any air return? Derek: 10 cc. Doctor: End title CO2's starting to go back up. George: The heart's starting to bat on it's own. Pressure's 60 over 40. It's low but it's there. Colin: She's gonna make it. George: Should I start closing her up? Dr. Shepherd? Derek: O'Malley, I just sliced my friend's chest open, give me a moment. (Colin and Derek are walking out of the OR) Colin: That's very well handled, Dr. Shepherd. Very impressive indeed. Derek: Not something I want to do everyday but thank you. (They walk up to Burke) Burke: Ah, what happened? Colin: Dr, Shepherd's patient had a venus air embolism. He had to split her chest open, massage her heart, and manually aspirate right in the middle of his procedure. Burke: Why didn't you call me? Derek: You were operating. Burke: I was next door, you could have pulled me out. Derek: There was no time, I handled it. Burke: You think I crack people's heads open when you're in the building just cause I think I can. Derek: The patient is fine. (Mark walks up) Burke: The patient is lucky and you were showboating. Derek: Showboating? What...what are you out of your mind? I was... Burke: We seem to be going out of our way to impress Dr. Marlow. Mark: I'll bet we are. (Richard has walked up) Richard: Gentlemen. Colin: Good day, doctors. (Mr. Scofield's room) Richard: How you feeling, Mr. Scofield? Mr. Scofield: Where's my bllet? (Richard hands him a jar with a very small piece of bllet in it.) That it? Where's the rest of it? Richard: That was it. Mr. Scofield: Is that a letter? Can you read that? Izzie: I don't think it's much of anything, it's just a scratch. Mr. Scofield: It's so small, it could just be anything. Richard: It's been a long time, they don't hold up that well. Mr. Scofield: Could you know have your lab, you know, analyze it? Tell me if it's one of ours. Richard: We're not set up for that kind of investigation, Mr. Scofield. You could try to send it to a forensic lab but I don't know if they'll tell you much either. (Richard leaves) Mr. Scofield: I've been stewing for 50 years. Izzie: Maybe it's time to move on. Mr. Scofield: To what? I lost my whole unit over this. I came home, my wife she didn't get it. I've been blazing mad my whole life, I've got nothing left. Izzie: It's not to late to let it go and start over. Mr. Scofield: You're a sweet kid but you don't know what it's like to have something change you in your soul. Izzie: I do. I wish I didn't but I do. Mr. Scofield: Don't let it turn you. (Outside Mr. Scofield's room, Bailey walks up to Richard) Bailey: You look like you've had a long day. Richard: You know what fragging is? Bailey: Mmm-hmm. Richard: We've got an epidemic of it today. My esteemed attendings are gonna be the death of me. Bailey: Is there a front runner? Richard: I don't know. What I do know is I don't want my attendings tearing each others throats out because of some internal power struggle. It's too dangerous for the hospital. Bailey: Does that mean...is Colin Marlow gonna be the new chief? Richard: Good night, Dr. Bailey. (Richard walks away and leaves Bailey standing there speechless) (Seattle scenes) (Meredith's house, Izzie and Meredith are in the kitchen) Izzie: This is ready. Don't slosh it around, it's all about the presentation. Meredith: Come in and eat with us. Izzie: You need to bond with your people, Meredith. People are what matters. Meredith: I hate people. Izzie: Yeah, well, do your own talking. Meredith: We talked. We talked hospital, we talked his research, we talked dad mother. I'm out. Izzie: Ask about the baby, ask if it poos, people can go on about that for hours. (Meredith walks into the dining room where Derek, Thatcher and Susan are seated at the table) Susan: Oh, chicken looks delicious. Meredith: It's from the store. Susan: Well the green beans look great as well. Meredith: I didn't do those either. Derek: It's beautifully presented. Meredith: Izzie did that. Derek: Oh. (Alex enters) Meredith: Alex! Come, sit. Eat! We're eating. This is Susan and this is my father. Thatcher: Hi. Alex: Cool. Meredith: So, how are you? How was your day? Alex: Ok, hungry. Meredith: Good. How's the baby. Susan: Great. Thatcher: She's smiling now sometimes. Looks exactly like Molly when she smiles. I mean it's amazing. I've got this old picture of Molly and me when she was, I don't know, 5 and she's sitting on this red sled in the snow, this great big fir tree. Susan: You know, I'm not sure that that... Thatcher: Yeah, no honey, it's a massive Douglas fir and in the picture couldn't look more like the baby. I mean, incredible. Meredith: That's me. The red sled and the big fir tree and the park at the middle school and the ugly yellow wool coat. That's isn't Molly it's you and me. Izzie: (From the kitchen) Crap! Meredith: Oh great. Izzie: Sorry. Meredith: Sorry. Izzie: I think I blew a fuse. Thatcher: I'll get it. Meredith: No, you know, I can get it, it's... Thatcher: Laundry room. (Thatcher heads for the laundry room) Meredith: I keep forgetting. Derek: What? Meredith: It's his house. (Burke is at a nurse's station when Cristina walks by) Cristina: I'm going home. are you going home? Burke: How did it end? Cristina: It ended. School was ending, I was leaving. Burke: You were done. Cristina: I came here, I fell in love with you. Burke: A new mentor, with a host of things to teach you. Cristina: You know what, if you think I'm in this for the education... Burke: Do you or do you not find my knowledge and skill compelling? Cristina: You know what, you are blwing this way out of proportion. Burke: A man three times you age believed he was having a substantial relationship with you... Cristina: Well, yeah. He was. Burke: And one day, you're done, just like that. Cristina: Yes. Burke: No, you don't open yourself to anyone. Sometimes, I think it's charming, she's different. She's not like other women, the simple fact is you have never left me in. What, you think it's gonna make a good marriage? Cause I don't. I don't want you to marry me cause your placating me. That doesn't interest me, doesn't interest me at all. (Meredith's dining room, Susan, Meredith and Derek are sitting in the dark) Meredith: Do you think he's ok? Susan: He'll find it. Meredith: He probably can't see, there's a flashlight in the closet. Derek: I'll go get it. Meredith: Ok. Derek: Excuse me. (Derek leaves) Meredith: I'm sorry. Susan: It's going fine. Meredith: I just...I don't know what to say to him. Susan: Well, it's not easy. It's cause he's afraid of you. Meredith: I shouldn't have bit his head. I wish I could have just... Susan: Meredith, it's ok to get angry, it's you in the picture. (Callie and George's hotel room) Callie: Izzie Stevens? I share something with you that I am clearly uncomfortable about and you tell Izzie Stevens. George: No, I didn't tell Izzie, I told Meredith, Meredith... Callie: Oh, so that's better? George: No, it was an accident. It was an accident. I was pissed off. Why can't you give me the benefit of the doubt that maybe sometimes I'm on your side? Callie: Because you choose your friends over me every chance you get. George: No I don't. I married you and I haven't talked to my best friend in weeks. Meanwhile, you lied to me about where we live and why. You lied to me about your background, you lied to me about your family and still I'm the dog who gets whacked on the nose with the newspaper, all the time. When is this gonna stop? Callie: Oh, so this is my problem? George: Yeah, maybe it is. Callie: Oh, the fact that your best friend violently disses our marriage every chance she gets, publicly, repeatedly. Why do you think she does that George, you ever think about that? George: She's having a problem with this, I understand that. Callie: She has feelings for you. George: What? Callie: She wants you. She's wants you, that's what this is about. That's why she hates me. George! George, do not laugh at me. Do not laugh at me. George: No, I'm not, I'm not. Oh god. It's just...she's Izzie. She's blonde, she's stacked, she's a supermodel, I'm George. Callie: So, what does that make me. George: No, come on. You're gorgeous and your curvy and I never thought you'd go for me. Callie: Just shut up. George: Callie! Callie: This is my hotel room that I paid for with my huge piles of money. Get the hell out of it! (Izzie and Alex are in Meredith's kitchen) Izzie: Sorry about the lights. Alex: Whatever. Food's good. Izzie: You want some pie? Alex: Nah, I gotta go. Izzie: Ah, big plans, got a hot date? Oh, good for you. I guess not interested really meant not interested. Alex: Iz, you didn't want me. Izzie: Yeah, but that doesn't mean I want you to want anyone else. Am I gonna be alone, pining over a dad guy forever? Alex: I hope not, it's kind of a waste. Izzie: Am I supposed to move on now? Do people look at me and say she's gotta get over it already it's running her life? Alex: You'll move on when you're ready to. (He kisses her cheek) (The dining room, Susan and Meredith are at the table when Cristina enters) Cristina: Why are you sitting in the dark? Meredith: Izzie blew a fuse. Cristina: Ok, I'm having a crisis. Meredith: Oh, I don't need rescuing. Susan is very nice and we're getting through it. Susan: Limping through but we'll make it. Cristina: Oh, no, this isn't a fake crisis. This is a real, my ex is about to ruin my impending marriage crisis. (George enters) George: Hey! Hey! Where's Izzie? Meredith: Kitchen. (To Susan) Sorry it's not always like this. Cristina: Yeah, it kinda is. (Izzie is in the kitchen when George enters) Izzie: They're in the other room. George: I need you to get over yourself. I need you to start liking my wife. I need you to like her because sometimes I don't and I need you to talk me back into it. You say you're my friend, that's the job. Izzie: Ok. George: I need to vent and I need it to be ok. Izzie: Ok. George: And I need to vent with alcohol. I got married and I'm scared it was a bad idea. Izzie: Nobody ever got married and didn't think that at least once. (Derek enters the laundry room where Thatcher is relaxing in a rocking chair) Derek: Did you find the fuse box? Thatcher: Yeah, yeah, I just needed to... Derek: Take a break? Thatcher: I don't know...I don't know how to or what to talk to her about. Derek: Work's a good place to start. Yeah, she's proud of what she does. She's good at it too. I'd start with that. Thatcher: You get each other, that's nice. Derek: Some days it's nice. Some days I'd like to come home to someone who doesn't know a thing about it. Thatcher: Rough day? Derek: I almost lost a friend in my own OR. Thatcher: Was it your fault? Derek: I don't know. You were both nervous tonight, it'll get easier. Thatcher: She was nervous? Derek: Yeah, she's tough, she tries to hide it. She's difficult but if you make an effort, she's worth it. Thatcher: You kidding? Derek: Not entirely. She's worth the effort. Thatcher: All right. (Thatcher turns the lights back on) Derek: Ah, nice. (Derek's pager goes off) Derek: Damn it Thatcher: Gotta go back in, huh? Derek: Yeah. (Seattle scenes) (Helen's room) Helen: Why is there an 11 inch incision in my chest? Derek: You coded on the table, air embolus. I had to open you up and aspirate. Helen: See, I'm sure you did a great job but that's why you're gonna have some real trouble convincing me to do it again. Derek: Helen...we got it all. The tumor, we never have to go back in there again. Helen: You sure? Derek: I'm sure. You're gonna live a long, long life. Helen: And here I thought you were just being an ass. Derek: Ah, I was an ass. I had no right to push you like that. Helen: No, you did not. Derek: I was going through some stuff and...I was an ass. Helen: Ok, but in this moment, you're the ass who gave me my life back. (Thatcher and Susan are leaving Meredith's house) Susan: I am so glad we did this. Meredith: I am too. Thank you for suggesting it because I... Susan: You never would have in a million years. Good night sweetie. Meredith: Thank you, good night. Thatcher: I'm sorry about your mother. Meredith: Thank you. Thatcher: Swings still here. Meredith: Yes, it doesn't swing. Nobody uses it. Thatcher: Here (He pulls out a nail) I put this in there, you used to catch your fingers. (Meredith pushes the swing) (Izzie and George are in the kitchen very drunk) Izzie: Suck it up. Go back with your tail between your legs and just apologize. George: No! Izzie: No really just say "I'm sorry, I'm an ass." George: I'm always apologizing. Izzie: Blah, blah, blah and it's over, it's all over. George: I can't be wrong all the time, is that really possible? (Izzie goes to pore more drink) George: No, don't. Izzie: Hey, don't be grabby. George: I don't have any, boogie. Izzie: Maybe you're wrong all the time, maybe she's just insecure. It doesn't matter you still have to grovel. George: She's insecure, that is a fact. She's insecure. Izzie: What? What? Just tell me. Come on, come on. George: It's just...nothing. She thinks you have feelings for me and that the problem. Izzie: I love it. George: And that, uh, I desperately want you. Izzie: I'm crying. Is she crazy? George: I think she's maybe a little crazy Izzie: I can't breathe, I can't breathe. (He touches her head and they look deeply into each other eyes) (Jane Doe's room) Alex: Scary day, huh? Jane: Yeah. Alex: Your amniotic sacs in tact, placentas in good position. Dr. Montgomery sewed your cervix up so tight, nothings coming out of there. Jane: So, that baby's gonna be ok. Alex: We're gonna have to see how it goes. I'm sorry. You asked me what I thought and I told you to go for it. I'm sorry. Jane: It's not your fault. Alex: No, see, when I pulled you out of that water at the ferry. I talked to you like you were my sister and I shouldn't have. I'm an intern, you've gotta get your advice from an attending. Jane: I asked you cause I trust you. Why don't you sit and tell me a bedtime story or something? MVO: What's worse, new wounds which are so horribly painful... (Meredith's room, Cristina is in her bed) Meredith: Move over, you're in the middle of the bed. MVO:...or old wounds that should have healed years ago and never did. Cristina: Am I gonna screw up this engagement? Meredith: I don't know, do you want to? Cristina: I don't know. Meredith: My mom is dad. Cristina: Yeah, she is. MVO: Maybe our old wounds teach us something... (Meredith puts her arm around Cristina) (Alex is asleep in George's old room) MVO: ...they remind us of where we've been and what we've overcome. (Cristina and Meredith are sleeping) MVO: They teach us lessons about what to avoid in the future. That's what we like to think. (Izzie is waking up) MVO: But that's not the way it is, is it? Something's we just have to learn over and over and over again. (Izzie rolls over and sees George in the bed with her, she lifts the blankets and realizes that she is naked.)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x18 - Scars and Souvenirs"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x19: My Favorite Mistake Original Airdate: 3/22/2007 Written by: Chris Van Dusen Directed by: Tamra Davis (Izzie is laying in bed with George. She quietly tries to sneak out.) MVO: Surgeons always have a plan, where to cut, where to clamp, where to stitch. But even with the best plans, complications can arise, things can arise and suddenly you're caught with your pants down. (Izzie is in the kitchen at the sink when Cristina and Meredith walk in) Meredith: Wow, you and George were really going at it last night. Izzie: What? Cristina: The laughing, the drinking, the music. Nobody, I mean me, needs to hear George's rendition of "Sexy Back" at three in the morning. Izzie: Yeah, yeah. You should have said something or you know, banged on the wall. Cristina: It's like living in a youth hostel. Meredith: Well, the important thing is that she and George made up. You did right? (Alex walks in) Alex: I need to use your bathroom. Meredith: Why? Alex: Cause O'Malley's puking in mine. Cristina: Ok, youth hostel. Meredith: George is still here? Izzie: Yes. Yes. But only because he was too drunk to drive home. You know, just totally impaired. Like no heavy machinery drunk. Alex: What's her problem? Cristina: Still drunk. Alex: What's she doing here? Meredith: She's afraid she's ruining her engagement to Burke, so she's hiding from him. Cristina: I'm not anymore. I have a plan. Burke doesn't want me to marry him just to appease him... Meredith: Which you are. Cristina: So...we don't get married. Simple, we go back to the way it was. Be kind, rewind. My plan has a name. Izzie: I gotta go. I gotta get to work. See you guys later. (She goes to leave and puking can be heard from the downstairs bathroom) Izzie: Is that George? You said he was upstairs, puking. Alex: So, now he's downstairs puking. (Izzie walks into the hall where George is) George: Izzie. Izzie: George. George: What the hell happened last night? Callie is gonna kll me. Did I at least call her before I passed out? Izzie: No. you don't...you don't remember? George: I remember the bourbon and the...I...where did you sleep? (Richard is walking through the hall with Colin) Richard: Big day. What time's your interview with the board? Colin: Three o'clock. Richard: Well if you have any questions, please... Colin: Yes, thank you. I think I have everything well in hand. Richard: That's a big folder. (Referring to the one Colin is carrying) Colin: It's nothing...it's just a few ideas I have for Seattle Grace. A ten-year plan. Which really is just a few, ah, tweaks. What did Einstein say? "Newton did the work, I'm merely standing in his shoulders." Richard: And in this scenario I'm Newton. (George is in the locker room looking very nauseous when Callie enters) Callie: George. Hey. George: Hey. You look, uh, nice. Callie: I look insane. I'm wearing pearls. Listen... George: Listen, about last night, uh... Callie: Yeah. Well we're good enough for now because as of right now you and I, we're the perfect couple. Ok, we are the perfect happily married couple who are perfect and, and never fight because my dad's in town. George: What? Callie: Yeah, my dad's in town and, uh, he wants to meet my husband. (Izzie enters) Izzie: Oh, hey. Hey, O'Malleys. Carry on, do your stuff, your married stuff. Yay! Callie: You told her about our fight. George: Just when exactly is he coming? Callie: Today, lunch, cafeteria. You know what, I think I might change it to Joe's so he might not be able to tell that stinks coming from you. George: No, it's ok. It's ok. Uh, I'm good with parents. Parents love me. Callie: Funny little man. Funny, funny little man. Funny little man who stinks. Just get in the shower, get in the shower, ok? George: I know it'll be ok. You'll see, he's gonna love me. Oh. (Cristina walks up to Burke at a nurse's station) Burke: Oh, what's this? Cristina: We bring each other coffee. This is what we do. Burke: No, this is what we used to do. Before you moved in and we started making coffee at home. You know, I'm not really interested in going back to the way it used to be so unless you have something else to say to me...I've already had my coffee. (Burke walks away and she sees Colin in the hall. Cristina walks away and Colin comes down the stairs and sees Derek, Addison and Burke standing near the OR board.) Colin: Ahh, good morning, doctors. Derek: Good morning. How you doing? Colin: Big day today. Good luck to all and sundry. (Colin walks away and Richard walks up) Richard: He has a ten-year plan. Burke: What? Richard: He's presenting the board with a ten-year plan for the surgical wing. Derek: He's only been here a day. Richard: Did you see that folder? It's full of plans...tweaks for my hospital. (Seattle scenes) (Jane Doe's room, Mark is showing her images on a computer screen.) Mark: This is a computer approximation of your original facial structure. Based on the 3D CT scans we did, it's what you could look like after reconstructive surgery. Or you could look like this...or this. You don't like them? Jane: It's not that...(Looks at Alex) How does this work exactly? Alex: He'll make an incision along your hairline and then... Jane: It's ok, I can take it. Alex: He'll literally pull your face off. Mark: It sounds a lot worse than it is. Your face is extremely elastic and pulling it down will allow me to correct the bone fractures underneath without any scarring. And once you've healed, no one will ever know you had the surgery. I'm that good. Addison: He is! It's annoying. Jane: The surgery won't affect my baby? Addison: I'll be monitoring the baby throughout, ok? Jane: Ok. So...then I just have to pick one. Do I have to pick one now? Mark: Take a couple hours and think about it. Jane: Couple hours, yeah. (Bailey and her interns walk into the hall and up to Richard) Richard: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Chief, Jane Doe's getting a new face today. Richard: Well, that's exciting. (To Meredith) How are you doing, Mer. You didn't take to much time off after... Meredith: I'm fine, sir. Really. I think working's the best thing I can do. Richard: Like mother, like daughter, huh? Mark: Dr. Grey, what can you tell me about reconstructive neuro floor? Meredith: Uh, you can create a new base from the eye socket by harvesting bone from the skull. Dr. Bailey, Dr Grey will be scrubbing in on the Jane Doe case. Come on, I'll show you how to do it without breaking the bone graft into a million pieces. Richard: Congratulations, Dr. Grey. Bailey: Come on, lets go people. (Bailey and her interns walk past a nurse's station where Callie is) Callie: Wait, wait, wait, I need to talk to you. Izzie: Why? Callie: To prepare you guys for what you're about to see. Izzie: You meant...you meant you like us, not me. You don't want to talk to me. You wanna talk to us, about a patient. Callie: That what I just said. This patient has a disease so rare that you'll probably never see it again. FOP. Izzie: Oh, Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. Callie: Uh, yeah. It's a skeletal disease. It turns muscle into bone, it turns you into a human statue. So just try to learn and not to stare. Ok? Nina: If you people are interns, you need to stand back. Cathy: Nina, please don't be rude. Nine: My mother still has movement in her face and hands. I'd like to keep it that way, so, please be careful. You press to hard during an exam or bump into her accidentally it causes a bone to grow where a bone shouldn't grow. So there can be no accidents. Callie: Ok, remember that when you're dealing with her today. Cathy: It's just a stomach virus or the flu. I'm sure it's nothing. Nina insisted that I come in... Nina: She was vomiting blood. And going through her pain meds like they were candy. And she has new growths, on her back. No doubt caused by come clumsy interns on her last hospital stay. Callie: Obviously, you're having a flare up of the FOP but really concerns me is the vomiting. So I'm gonna need a CT and see what's going on. (Sees a dollhouse) Oh, did you build that? Nina: My mom did. Cathy: No, Nina did it. I used to do it, I'm not able to. Nina: Keeps her active. When she's active she has fewer flare-ups. Plus it keeps her happy and relaxed. Callie: Good, ok. (Outside Nina's room) Izzie: Can I work in the clinic today? Alex: You don't want the FOP case? Cristina: Clinic, why? What's going on in the clinic? Izzie: Nothing. I just feel clinicy. Cristina: That's not a word. I'll take the clinic. Izzie: Cristina! Bailey: You both can go to the clinic. (Callie is nearby smelling George) Bailey: The board's interviewing chief candidates all day today so were light on surgeries. O'Malley? George: Yes? Bailey: You're with Dr. O'Malley. George: Ok. Alex: What am I supposed to do? Bailey: Find Dr. Montgomery, see if you can help with Jane Doe. George: I showered twice. Callie: It's coming out of your pores, George. You, reek, you're trembling and there's no way I'm letting you near my patient right now. Dr. Bailey? George: Don't tell Bailey, don't tell Bailey. Callie: Bailey, with Mrs. Rogerson's limited mobility I'm gonna need an extra set of hands. Bailey: Fine, Stevens. Yang will handle the clinic, you'll be with the O'Malleys today. (Izzie gets out of the elevator. Callie looks annoyed, Izzie looks terrified and George gives her a thumbs up) (Cristina is in the clinic with Doug Kendry) Doug: It's my foot. It hurts like crazy. I'm gonna need a pain kller, I can't spend the whole day propped on an ice pack. Cristina: You're gonna need to take off your shoe. Doug: No, no, no. I've been down this route before. Just slip me a couple pain Kllers and I'll be on my way. Cristina: Sir, did you, uh, go to medical school? I did. Take off your shoe. You have type two diabetes. Doug: Ten years now. Cristina: Well, you inspect your foot every day, have you noticed anything? Doug: I noticed it hurts. Look, I've got ten guys sitting on their ass waiting for me to show up... Cristina: Sir, I get it. You're in a hurry. That makes two of us. Sock. (Doug takes off his sock to reveal a very nasty sore) Cristina: You need to call your guys and tell them you're not coming in. (Jane Doe's room) Meredith: Did you choose a face? Jane: Not yet. I was hoping I'd see one of them and I don't know, recognize myself. I don't recognize any of these women. What if I choose the wrong one? What if my husband or boyfriend or whose ever baby this is, shows up tomorrow with a picture of what I'm supposed to look like but it's too late, and I'm stuck with the wrong face for the rest of my life? Alex: Ok, that would suck but if you don't pick one...(He holds up a mirror)...this is gonna be your face the rest of your life. (Derek is watching Meredith, who is at a computer) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hey. Meredith: Shouldn't you be preparing for your board interview? Derek: I am. (He leans over her shoulder and he smells her hair) Meredith: You're hovering. Derek: No, I'm breathing you in. Meredith: You're hovering. Derek: Fine, I'm hovering. If Cristina would sleep in her own bed, I wouldn't have to hover at work. I could hover in bed. A different type of hovering perhaps. How bad is it today? On a scale of one to ten? Meredith: Seven maybe a six. Derek: Good. Meredith: You know what's gonna make it even better than that? Derek: Uh-huh, what? Meredith: Calverian bone harvest I get to do on Sloan's Jane Doe later. Derek: Sloan's gonna let you do a harvest? By yourself? Meredith: By myself. Which makes me very cool in the eyes of my dad mother, by the way. Derek: Ok, then. I better let you study. Meredith: Better stop distracting me. I will not be cool in the eyes of my dad mother if I mame Jane Doe. (CT Room) George: We're gonna need you to lie very still Mrs. Rogerson. Cathy: I think I can do that Dr. O'Malley. George: Sorry about that, Mrs. Rogerson. I'm never gonna drink again. I can't believe I have to be presentable for Callie's dad at lunch. Izzie: Hours...hours...many hours of our lives that are all I can think about and you...seriously don't remember? How can you not remember those many, many hours? George: Izzie, whatever I did, whatever I said. I was drunk, I didn't mean it. Izzie: George, I assure you, you meant it. You meant it a lot, you meant it more than once. George: Do you see that? Page Callie. (Cristina walks past an office where Colin is) Colin: You'll be pleased to here I'm proposing an expansion to the hospital board this morning. Give you quite a few more places to hide. Cristina: I'm not going to hide. I'm just trying to find my resident. Colin: I come here to Seattle to see you and you don't even give me a moment. Cristina: You didn't come to see me, you came to get a job. Colin: I came here for both. Cristina: Well, you made a mistake. Colin: Are you gonna invite me? Cristina: Where? Colin: To the wedding. Cristina: Will you stop talking about the wedding? Colin: Most blushing brides to be love to talk about the wedding, what's the matter? Are we getting cold feet? Cristina: Please leave. Colin: If he's rushing you, you should tell him. When you marry, you wanna be ready, he should understand that. (Addison is standing in front of a mirror) Addison: Good afternoon, board. No. Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen of the board...(Mark enters) I'm so grateful for this opportunity. Mark: Don't wear the glasses. You fiddle with them, it makes you look indecisive. And stop stressing, it will be like any other job interview. What do you consider your strengths? What do you consider your weaknesses? What do you consider your weaknesses? Addison: I don't have any. I'm that good. What are yours? Mark: I'm an easy mark for evil redheads. Addison: Trust me, you have other weaknesses. Obviously, you are a man-whore. Mark: Correction, I was a man-whore. Addison: Yeah, well, while you're bragging about that to the board, Colin Marlow is pitching his ten-year plan. Mark: Ten-year plan? Is that a requirement? Addison: It is now. (Cathy's room) Callie: Mrs. Rogerson, according to your CT, you have severe internal bleeding. It was probably caused by your anti-inflammatory medication. Nina: Does that require surgery because she can't have any. Callie: Obviously, any surgical procedure could cause more bone growth or do more damage than good. That's why Dr. Burke's here. Burke: What we can do is inset a line into your groin and then float a catheter up and embalize the area. Nina: That's minimally invasive? Burke: As minimally invasive as possible but with your condition even this is risky. Cathy: I'm 41 years old. Most FOP patients don't live to 45. I'm down to the use of my face and hands, pretty soon I won't have anything. So, what would happen if I refuse the surgery? Callie: You will bleed to death...within a day or two. Cathy: Is that painful? Nina: Mom, stop, ok? Cathy: Nina, please let me think, I... Nina: The reason you've gotten this far...our treatment plan works. It will work. (Mark enters the conference room where Derek is) Mark: Burke is using PowerPoint. He's doing a PowerPoint presentation for the board, which is cool if it's like 1998. There's no swag is there? We're not allowed to give gifts? Derek: Why did you ask Meredith to do a bone graft...on your Jane Doe? Mark: Because I'm her teacher and that's my job. Derek: You're doing it to impress the chief. You're setting her up. And she can't fail right now. Mark: Why don't you let your girlfriend decide what she can or can't do? Derek: I will hurt you if this goes wrong for her. (Outside Cathy's room) Addison: Is...is that a...? Izzie: Dollhouse. Yeah, the lights work and everything, it's the perfect little home. Addison: Did you have a dollhouse growing up? Izzie: I had sex last night...with the wrong person. But the thing is it didn't feel wrong at the time. It felt like everything was falling into place. So, what do I do? Addison: What am I? The go-to person for adultery? Izzie: No...no...I just...I just don't know what to do. Addison: You stop, that's what you do. Izzie: Are you sure? How do you know, that it feels so right because it's gods plan? Addison: God wants you to be an adulterer? Izzie: God got a virgin pregnant by magic. God is not playing by the rules. (Clinic, Doug is on the phone) Doug: Uh-huh, talk to Paul. Cristina: Mr. Kendry. Doug: No, Paul will get your drywall numbers. Cristina: Mr. Kendry. Doug: Ok, let me just right a couple notes about that call. Cristina: Mr. Kendry, we're gonna have to amputate your foot. Doug: What? Cristina: The infection is in the bone and if we don't remove your foot, the infection will travel to your blood and that will cause sepsis and possible death. I'm sorry. Doug: How can you be so...I mean, I can't get around...No, no, you're not cutting off my foot. Cristina: Sir, diabetes as a manageable disease. If you had been here even a month ago, maybe... Doug: Ok, I screwed up. But you're telling me this is my only option because I was late getting in here? That there is no way... Cristina: Mr. Kendry... Doug: No! Please, there's gotta be a way for me to get that month back. Tell me what to do. I'll do every line of every plan that you give me. Please. You gotta find a way to save my foot. (Meredith is practicing her bone harvest when Derek enters) Derek: Hey, what do you think of a robotics lab as a goal for the hospital? Hmm? Meredith: Derek. Derek: You're harvesting. Meredith: I'm trying to be supportive but this graft, it's really tricky. Derek: Mm-hmm. You don't have to do it, you know. I talked to Mark and uh... Meredith: You what? Derek: I talked to Mark. I mean, Meredith this is, uh, it's a complex procedure. Meredith: You don't think I can do it? Derek: When has Mark Sloan allowed his interns to do anything? Let alone harvest a bone graft? Meredith: He's in the race for chief. He's trying to prove he can teach. Derek: By teaching you. Your mother died and the chief is going to be watching you very closely. Mark is trying to gain points to play. Meredith: Using me. Derek: If it goes well, he gets the credit. But if it goes poorly, he gets the save. Meredith: So, this is about you one upping Mark? Derek: He's using you. I'm just trying to protect you. Meredith: You don't need to. Close the door on your way out. (Derek leaves slamming the door on his way out.) (Bailey walks up to Mark in the hall) Mark: Can I help you with those Dr. Bailey? Bailey: What do you want? Mark: See, that's what I like about you, you always get right to the point. Bailey: Make it quick, I'm headed over to the clinic. Mark: All right, what would you change about this hospital if you could? Bailey: Is this for your board interview? You want me to do your homework for you cause I'm not busy enough, is that it? Mark: All the other attendings are putting together ten-year plans, I was just looking for some input. Bailey: Input? You want...I have patients in need of medical attention right now. This guy, here, is about to have one less appendage. I don't have a ten-year plan for him, I have a right now plan for him. Cut off his foot to save his life. So, you need to get out of my way right now, so I can do my job. Mark: Right now? Bailey: Right now. (Cafeteria, the interns are having lunch) Izzie: Hey, talk to me about blackouts. Are they real? Do you really not remember anything afterwards? Meredith: Iz, I'm fine. I'm not drinking, I'm not drowning my sorrows. Fine. Everybody needs to stop trying to protect me. Izzie: Um, this isn't really about you. I'm asking back when you had a best friend named tequila, did you actually ever blackout? Meredith: Once...twice. Alex: The stuff you don't remember is usually the stuff you don't wanna remember. Izzie: Right. Great, thanks. Cristina: Hey, I have type two diabetes. Patient let it go and the infection is in the bone. I have to find a fix or cut off the foot. Anyone? Anybody? Alex: You get to cut off his foot? Cool. Cristina: Ok, no, not cool. The patient was neglectful, he made a couple bad calls. Does that mean he has no hope? Does that mean he can't have a do over? Alex: But you get to cut, do bonus stuff. Meredith: We're talking about Burke now. Alex: We are? Meredith: Operation be kind, rewind not going so well? Izzie: You need to fix it cause it seems like you guys have a pretty good thing. And pretty good things are rare and hard to come by. Unlike really screwed up, complicated things which seem to be freaking everywhere. Cristina: You know what, things are great. I'm gonna get things back to the way they were. Watch me. (Cristina storms off) Izzie: Has Jane Doe picked a face? Meredith: No, not yet. Izzie: How cool would that be? To get to pick your own face. Just disappear and start all over. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room) Alex: How you doing? Jane: How am I doing? I'm freaking out, Alex. That's how I'm doing. I can't do this. I can't pick. I can't. Alex: All right, ok, lets uh...lets meet the contenders, all right? This...this is Maggie. Married her high school sweetheart, has two kids, boy and girl. Loves being a mom, you know, coaches her daughter's basketball team and makes an insane banana cream pie. Jane: Banana cream pie? Alex: It's my favorite so shut up. And this...is Elizabeth. Graduated from Northwestern, met her husband at a rally where they got arrested and fell in love. She's all angry and fired up but everyone forgives her because she means well. Ahh, this one, this ones Eva. She's funny, she's tough...a little neurotic some times but you get used to it. You can tell she's been through some tough times in her life but she'll get through it. (George and Callie are at Joe's with Mr. Torres) George: It's just your daughter, she...she's sorta undeniable. And, uh, after I lost my father I realized that life is short...and it's long too. Short and long. Life... Mr. Torres: He talks a lot. Callie: No, no, he talks like a like a like a person who talks dad, please. Mr. Torres: Do you have any idea what you've done to your mother? You make this decision, the most important day of your life, we didn't even know she was seeing someone. Are you pregnant? Callie: Oh. Mr. Torres: Did you get my daughter pregnant? George: No. Callie: No, daddy, this is...no. George, ok, he's not like the other guys I've been with. George: Clean as a whistle, and a mathlete. Mr. Torres: He has no money. You have money. George: Oh, come on. I didn't know that Callie was well off. She just told me. Mr. Torres: Really? Really, well you won't mind then if the car, the house and everything else we'll provide will be in Calliope's name? Callie: What house? Mr. Torres: You're a married woman now. I'll find something suitable. It's all here in the postnuptial, I've brought along. Callie: Whoa. (Mr. Torres goes to put the papers down and knocks over George's drink) Mr. Torres: I'm sorry. Callie: Dad! George: Got it. It's ok. (Callie and her father are still talking. George suddenly flashes back to the night before and sees him and Izzie having sex.) George: No. Mr. Torres: What? George: No, that's not gonna happen. There is no way I am gonna let you pay for anything. I can't...we can't...Callie...I'm so sorry. Mr. Torres, I'm sorry, but the answer is no. (George walks up to Izzie who is at a nurse's station) Izzie: You remembered? (George walks over to a linen closet and opens the door, they both enter. George appears very confused and even punches the wall. Izzie touches his face, he pulls her hand away and then leaves without either of them saying anything.) (Seattle scenes) (Cathy's room. Izzie enters and Cathy and Nina are working on the dollhouse) Izzie: Wow, it's really coming along. It looks great. Cathy: Thanks. We've been working on it for months. But when I say we, I mean she. I just hold things and look pretty. Izzie: That can be hard work too. I'm gonna need to draw some blood for your surgery. Nina: Be careful! You can only use one specific vein in this area, here. (Izzie goes to move and knocks things off the table) Nina: I said be careful. Izzie: I am so sorry. Cathy: That's ok. Nina: No it's not. If she's gonna be that clumsy, she's not drawing your blood. Cathy: Nina, she's just doing her job. Nina: Not very well. I'm going to get a nurse, the senior nurse. Cathy: Oh Nina, stop. Nina: No, mom! Do not let her touch you. We can't be too careful. You're not taking her blood. Cathy: She's not even a person anymore, you know what I mean? Izzie: Mrs. Rogerson... Cathy: I know I'm gonna die. You know maybe not today but soon. I just need to talk, you know. Nina won't let me talk. I just need to talk. (Richard enters the conference room where Derek is) Richard: No coffee. One more thing for Marlow to tweak. Please tell me you're not coming up with a ten-year plan for this hospital. Derek: You can come up with all the plans you want but in the end their just...it's doesn't make one bit of difference. Things happen, people just... Richard: Drown? Derek: Yeah, you know when I pulled her out of the water...she was like ice. She can swim, Richard...she gave up. I close my eyes for a minute and it's like she's back in the water. I'm up at night and I just listen to her breath, you know? Just in case she stops. I can come up with plans for the hospital but if they ask me where I'm gonna be in 10 years... (Mr. Torres walks up to George who is at the nurse's station) Mr. Torres: George. George: Mr. Torres? Mr. Torres: You wanna take care of her in your own way. I understand that, I respect it but you have to understand, she's my only little girl George. You have to promise me that you will love her and protect her because the minute you hurt her... (Callie walks up) Mr. Torres: You understand? (George nods) Mr. Torres: Good. Then I'll tell Callie's mother, she can plan the party. Callie: What...what? Mr. Torres: You're wedding party. Callie: Ah, dad, come on. Mr. Torres: Now, now, please. For my sanity make her happy. Just let her plan the party. Callie: All right, all right, ok. Mr. Torres: All right then, I have a plane to catch. Come here. (He kisses her cheek) George. (Shakes George's hand) Callie: Bye dad. (He leaves) Callie: You stood up to him, nobody does that. I was all proud. So listen, about last night...I don't know about you but personally I'd like to take back about 90 percent of it. George: Me too. Callie: Good, good ok. Then go find Izzie and help her prep Mrs. Rogerson, I'll see you in surgery. (Jane Doe's OR) Jane: You here to keep my baby alive? Alex: I am. Jane: Good. Alex: So? Jane: So, call me Eva. (Scrub room for Jane Doe's OR) Mark: You been practicing? You know the chief will be watching today. Meredith: The chief, right, of course. Mark: Of course what? Meredith: Derek was right about you. You're using the memory of my dad mother to win points with the chief. It's despicable. And I'm not gonna play. Mark: The chief, the way he was looking at you this morning. Was like you were some beaten down puppy he picked up off the side of the road. You do this procedure and you do it well, he'll start looking at you like a surgeon again. But you wanna think of me as despicable, you wanna pass up this sht, that's up to you. (Cristina is walking through the hall with Doug) Cristina: They're doing amazing things with prosthetics these days. This doesn't mean your life is over. (She sees Burke in the hall dressed for his interview) Cristina: Take him up to the OR, I'll meet you there. (She walks over to Burke) Cristina: Got you're board thing now? The chief picked you originally. You were always supposed to be the next chief. That was always the plan. Burke: That was a long time ago. A lot has happened since then. Cristina: But you're still that guy. You're the guy the chief chose. Burke: No I'm not. I'm not that guy, Cristina, and I wouldn't want to be. I wanna be better than that. I like to believe that I've grown. I wanna move forward, I'm not interested in going back. (A board member walks in the hall) Board Member: Dr. Burke. (Seattle scenes) (Jane Doe's OR. Mark looks up and sees Richard and Derek watching the surgery intently. He breathes a heavy sigh) Mark: You ready? Meredith: Osteotome and hammer. Mark: Use the curved osteotome to elevate the external table. Gently. (Cathy's OR) Burke: How's it looking? Doctor: Still see bleeding. Burke: Platinum microcoils, they aren't holding. Callie: What about using an gelatin sponge? Burke: I've already tried polyvinyl alcohol, glue, micro-coils. Nothings working. Izzie: BP's dropping to 62 systolic. Burke: We're gonna have to open her up. Callie: If you open her up she's dad. Burke: If we don't she's dad. (Nina is in her mother's room working on the dollhouse) (Doug's OR) Cristina: Beginning amputation (She turns on the saw.) (Jane Doe's OR, Meredith is removing skull bone. Richard and Derek look on.) (Cathy's OR, she is flatlining) (Doug's OR, Bailey is carrying his leg) Bailey: Fine amputation, Yang. (Yang looks saddened that she had to amputate the leg) (Jane Doe's OR, Meredith removes a piece of bone and looks up to Derek who smiles at her) Mark: Beautiful. (Nina is working on the dollhouse) (Cathy's room, she is still flatlined) (Nina is working on the dollhouse and drops a piece and breaks it) (Mark is in with the board and Derek, Addison and Burke are spying from outside) Addison: Wait, now they're laughing. Derek: Laughing? Addison: They're laughing. Derek: Well, they can't be laughing with him, they have to be laughing at him. (Bailey walks up) Bailey: I'm surprised you don't have a sht glass pressed up against that window. (They all move aside just as Mark and the board leave the conference room) Mark: Let me show you the new clinic. (They all follow Mark and Richard is stopped by the others) Burke: Chief? Richard: Hmm? Burke: So...? Richard: If you ask me, you all could stand to borrow a page from Dr. Sloan's book. Derek: Sloan? You're kidding, right? That's a joke. Richard: He didn't get caught up in this whole ten-year plan foolishness. He said he had a "right now" plan for Seattle Grace. Burke: The "right now" plan? Bailey: (Agitated) The "right now" plan? (Bailey looks over at Mark who smiles) Is that right? Richard: Board ate it up, tell you the truth, so did I. (Seattle scenes) (Cathy's room) Nina: I should have brought her in sooner. The first time she threw up. I knew better. Callie: Nina, there was nothing any of us could... Nina: No. It was a mistake. Izzie: You're mother...talked to me. She wasn't ready to leave you but she was ready to leave her body. Nina: Please, I don't need you to explain the relative comforts of death for my mother. Izzie: What she was afraid of was that you had taken on so much of her disease that you had frozen up to. You spent so much time planning and helping her avoid risk, god knows that's what you should have been doing, but she was worried...You have a healthy body, Nina. If you fall down you won't turn to stone and you're mom so wanted you to fall. Messing up is what makes a person. It's how you learn, where you find joy in the things you don't plan for. The things you never see coming. (Seattle scenes) (George and Izzie are alone in the locker room) Izzie: Ok, it happened. It was a mistake and it happened. People make mistakes. We need to figure out where we go from here. We need to figure out how to tell Callie. George: I'm not gonna tell Callie. Do you know how much this would hurt her? I'm not gonna clear my conscious at her expense. She has done nothing but support me, encourage me and believe in me and this is how I pay her back. No, I have to live with what I did. This is our secret, ok? Izzie: Ok. (George gets up and leaves) MVO: The thing about plans is...they don't take into account the unexpected. (Cristina enters Doug's room) MVO: So, when we're thrown a curve ball, whether it's in the OR, or in life. Cristina: How are you feeling? MVO: We have to improvise. Doug: I'm a guy without a foot. What do I do now? Cristina: You move forward, you follow the plan and you try and keep your other foot. Doug: My other foot, right. (Alex is in Jane Doe's room) MVO: Of course, some of us are better at it than others. (Addison enters) Addison: I'm impressed, Karev. You spent the whole day watching a fetal monitor and never complained. Alex: Well, I do what I'm told. Addison: Since when? Alex: Depends on who's doing the telling. Addison: Good night, Dr. Karev. (Addison leaves and Jane Doe wakes up) Jane: What was that? Alex: Hey, how's Eva? Jane: I don't think I'm gonna know the answer to that for a while. What do you say we talk about you and the redhead for a while? Alex: Well, the redhead's my boss, so... Jane: So? Alex: Well, it's complicated. Jane: And? Alex: And? (Cristina enters her and Burke's apartment) MVO: Some of us just have to move on to Plan B and make the best of it. (She climbs into bed. Burke looks shocked.) Cristina: It has to be small. Just you and me...and Meredith...and Shepherd too, if you want. But that's it. And the justice of the peace. I know you're spiritual and stuff but I don't want any rabbi's or ministers, nothing religious. Let's just make an appointment at city hall and that'll be it. And no veil. Ok, I don't wanna get married with a mosquito net all over my face. (He hugs her) (Meredith and Derek are lying in bed) Meredith: I let Mark use the memory of my dad mother to win points with the chief. You were right. Derek: Sorry. Meredith: You know what's weird? Derek: What's weird? Meredith: It's exactly what she would have wanted. Derek: So, dad mommy's proud? Meredith: d*ad mommy's proud. How was your interview? Derek: Not great. It wasn't great. I was distracted. Meredith: By what? Derek: Nothing. I don't know. Meredith: On a scale of one to ten how bad is it? Derek: 8 (They kiss) Meredith: How bout now? Derek: 7 (She climbs on top of him) Meredith: How bout now? MVO: And sometimes... Derek: 6 MVO: ...what we want... Derek: 5 MVO: ...is exactly... Derek: 4 MVO: ...what we need. (Izzie is in her room, taking the sheets off the bed. She sits down on the bed and cries) MVO: But sometimes... (Callie and George are lying in bed) Callie: I can smell you're clothes through the closet door. Did you tie them up in a plastic laundry bag? George: Yeah. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Callie: I guess I can live with it. MVO: Sometimes what we need is a new plan.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x19 - My Favorite Mistake"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x20: Time After Time Original Airdate: 4/19/2007 Written by: Stacy McKee Directed by: Christopher Misiano (Cristina and Burke are in the OR) MVO: A patient's history is as important as their symptoms. It's what helps us decide if heartburn's a heart attck, if a headache's a tumor. Sometimes patients will try to rewrite their own histories. They'll claim they don't smoke or forget to mention certain drugs, which in surgery can be the kiss of death. (The patient starts flatlining and blood is squirting everywhere) MVO: We can ignore it all we want. (Cristina looks up and sees Colin in the gallery) MVO: But our history, eventually, always comes back to haunt us. (Burke looks up at Colin) (Meredith's house. Susan and Derek are in the kitchen) Derek: Meredith, she'll accept a certain amount of help and then she starts to feel suffocated. Susan: Oh! Is this...am I suffocating? Derek: Oh no, the groceries are just right. It's me. I sometimes overdo it. Susan: Well, who can blame you? With...after Ellis died, I gave her some time but I wanna be here. I wanna help make things easier... Derek: Good, yeah. Just try to keep it light, you know? Be helpful... (Meredith enters) Derek: Good morning. Meredith: Morning. Derek: You want some coffee? Meredith: Yes. This all you? Susan: I just picked up some things to restock your fridge. Meredith: You bought groceries last week. Derek: Yeah, you have to do it every week, if you want more. Meredith: Well, thank you. It's unexpected and you didn't need to do all this. (Alex walks in) Alex: This for everybody? Susan: Absolutely. Derek: I'm gonna run, I gotta talk to Richard before things get to busy at the hospital. I'll see you. Meredith: Are you gonna talk to him about the uh... Derek: Yeah. Wish me luck. Susan: You don't need it. Just make him listen to you. You deserve to be chief. (Richard and Mark are in the elevator when a woman enters) Woman: Nice sweater. Richard: Yeah...my wife... Woman: What? Richard: My wife, she gave it to me...the sweater. Actually, it's my ex-wife. It's amicable. Woman: I'm sorry? Richard: The divorce, it's amicable. Very friendly. I'm a friendly guy. (The woman and another passenger get out leaving Mark and Richard alone) Mark: I'm a friendly guy? Richard: Sloan! Mark: She pressed five and got off at three. She'd rather walk up two flights of stairs then flirt with you. Hell, she'd rather climb up the outside of the building. Richard: I wasn't flirting. Mark: You're telling me. There's no need to be embarrassed. It's time for you to shake off the rust and get back in the game. You need a wing man. Richard: I have patients to see. (He gets out of the elevator) Mark: We'd make a great team. (Colin enters the room where Cristina is) Colin: Nothing like a quick ventricular reconstruction to jump-start your morning, eh? Cristina: Ok, you've officially become creepy, creepy and stalking. Burke and I have set our date; we're getting married next month. Colin: We both know you're not the marrying kind. Cristina: Well, you don't know that. You don't know me anymore. Colin: Just to be sure you're fully aware of what you're passing up. I'd like you to assist me on my hetrotopic heart transplant today. Cristina: What? A piggyback transplant, seriously? Colin: Burke will want to scrub in too, I imagine. See how it's done. (Cristina and Meredith enter the locker room) Cristina: Hetrotopic transplant, he is upping his game. I need a gambit. I need to force him into the defensive, take his queen. (Meredith just looks at her) You've never played chess? Meredith: I'm not a geek. Cristina: I've gotta crush him. I've gotta annihilate him at his own game. Meredith: So, it's weird, right? That Susan keeps stopping by like this? I mean, we just became friends or semi-related or whatever you call your estranged father's wife. Alex: You may be confused since you were basically raised by wolves but this is what mother's do. They stop by, they stock the fridge. Dude, you think she might do our laundry? Meredith: Hey! Get your own fake mom. (George enters) George: Hey. (To Callie) Bad night on call? Callie: Yeah, one my patient's gooey abscess exploded all over me at 4 am... (Izzie enters holding a rosary) Izzie: Holy Mary, mother of God. Pray for us sinners now and in the... Alex: (Whistles) Iz, you look nice. Meredith: Did you just come from confession? Izzie: Holy Mary... Meredith: In a church? Izzie: Shut up. Alex: Izzie Stevens does penance. You did something bad. Callie: I smell like poo. Did you think I can make it through today without falling asleep? George: Do you want to make a coffee date? 3 pm, you could use a little pick me up. Callie: Yeah. Sounds nice, really nice. George: Good. Callie: Ok. (Jane Doe's room) Alex: (Taking a picture of her new face) Smile. Aww, come on man, that's not a smile. Jane Doe: Can I see? It's me? Oh my god. I know this is gonna sound terrible but I'm not bad looking. Meredith: Beautiful is the word you're looking for. Izzie: I was gonna say hot. George: I was gonna too but I think I would've gotten in trouble. Bailey: You would have. Mark: Still a little swelling. In a day or two I'll raise that hot to smoking. Jane Doe: Then shouldn't we wait to take the after pictures? Bailey: We could but the sooner we take them the sooner we get them out there. Mark: Your picture's gonna be everywhere. The police, the news, the internet. Jane Doe: But if my face looks completely different then what good would pictures do? Mark: I was able to maintain aspects of your bone structure so your face bares some similarities to your old face. Plus, your hair and your eyes are the same. Jane Doe: You think? Do you really think someone will finally recognize me? Alex: I think you should smile. (Izzie and George are in the clinic) Izzie: I'm telling you, this confession thing. It really works. It's like we have a do-over. Our sin is gone. So you don't have to keep avoiding me. George: Yeah, I do. Until this thing blows over, I do. (Loudly) Javier Rugero. Javier...uh...Rugero. Izzie: Blows over? What does that even mean? George: When Meredith and I, uh...eventually, you know, blew over, passed. Izzie: You mean the sad sex? The sad, tragic, depression inducing sex you had with Meredith is the same as what... George: Ok...ok, back off. Just for now, back off. (Loudly) Javier Rugero (George walks away and Caroline and Dustin Klein walk up) Dustin: You're Dr. Isobel Stevens? Izzie: Yes. If you're Mr. Rugero, you're with Dr. O'Malley. Dustin: Dr. Stevens... Caroline: We, um...our daughter has leukemia...and needs a bone marrow transplant. Izzie: You're uh...you're looking for hematology. It's third floor west, through these double doors, second set of elevators on the...on the right. (Caroline starts sobbing) Izzie: I'm so sorry about your daughter but Seattle Grace has one of the best bone marrow transplant centers in the country. If you'd like I can take you up there myself. Dustin: No, no. It's just that...you look so much like our daughter. We're Dustin and Caroline Klein. We're Hannah's parents. We're her...we're your daughter's parents. You're Hannah's birth mother. Dustin: Hannah was diagnosed a few months ago with acute myeloid leukemia. We, um...we looked you up and we know that that's wrong but... Caroline: She needs the transplant. We were set to go. We had a donor. Dustin: Her donor died, registry called Hannah's oncologist last night. Caroline: Cause apparently Hannah hasn't had enough bad luck. Dustin: We'd never ask. I mean, we had no intentions bothering you...ever. Caroline: But last night everything changed. Izzie: No, of course. Of course I'd donate. It's just...a biological parent isn't usually a good donor. I'm only a half match. Hannah would probably do better getting back on the donor list and waiting. Caroline: I know when you gave her up, we promised to take care of her, to keep her safe. But I can't protect her from this. It's genetic. You have to take care of her. Dustin: Every day we wait she gets sicker. Caroline: And if we're lucky, you could be better than a half match. Izzie: Yeah. Is she...she's here? (They nod) God, she must be scared. Dustin: She's upstairs with my mother. Izzie: Can I...um...I'd like to meet her. Dustin: Well, we'd have to check with Hannah... Caroline: But if she agrees, of course, we'd be ok with it. Isobel...our daughter could die. (Cristina, Burke, and Colin enter Charles' room) Colin: Charles, this is Dr. Burke. I've invited him to assist on the surgery. Charles: How do you do Dr. Burke? (Playing chess) Burke: You playing yourself? Charles: It distracts me from the fact that you're gonna have your hands in my chest in a few hours. Colin: This...Charles, is a former student of mine, a formidable chess player herself. Dr. Cristina Yang. Cristina: Soon to be Dr. Cristina Burke. We're getting married. (She puts her hand on Burke's chest) Next month. Charles: Congratulations! Cristina: Thank you, sir. Colin: (Looking sick) Perhaps, you'd like to explain the procedure, Dr. Yang? Cristina: Absolutely! (She grabs Burke's hand) Mr. Redford, instead of replacing your current we're going to attach it to the new heart essentially piggy backing it. The two hearts pump together, sharing the workload. It's, uh...it's a perfect team. Colin: More accurately, the new heart will circulate blood to the body while the native heart will pump blood to the lungs. More of a divide and conquer approach, wouldn't you say, Dr. Yang? Charles: Sounds risky? Burke: All surgeries carry a degree of risk but Dr. Marlow pioneered the procedure. Cristina: And Dr. Burke is one of the foremost cardio-thoracic surgeons in the country. Colin: Well, I'll be the one on point, of course. So, you've nothing to worry about. You've picked the best man for the job. (Outside the room, Cristina and Burke are walking in the hall) Burke: What was that? Cristina: That was my smug, passive-aggressive whiny ex-boyfriend trying to show me I picked the wrong guy. Burke: Oh, I know. I'm fine with it as long as I'm learning something. I was actually talking about you. What was that? Cristina: You're gonna have to put up with me being nice and sweet for a little while. Burke: That'll be a nice change of pace. Cristina: Shut up. Burke: That's more like it. (Addison walks up to Alex in the hall) Addison: Hey. I saw Ava. She looks terrific. Alex: Yeah, yeah she does. Sloan kicked it out. Addison: Yeah, well, you had something to do with that too. Alex: Just doing my job. Addison: Geez, you cannot take a compliment. Alex: I just...don't wanna get people thinking... Addison: What? You're trying to build the perfect woman? (A nurse walks up) Nurse: Dr. Montgomery, the police just called. They're on their way over. They think they found Jane Doe's family. (Derek and Richard are in his office) Derek: I'm sure you felt that you needed to be even handed when you announced that you were looking for someone to take over as chief. Give everybody a sht at the brass ring. Richard: I did. Derek: Cam we drop that rouse soon? Richard: It's not a rouse. Derek: You promised me the job when I came here. It's why I came. Richard: No, you came because you're marriage fell apart and you had to get the hell out of... Derek: We had an understanding and now you're having me jump through hoops with every other attending in this hospital. I hear you're giving Marlow special privileges to do a piggyback surgery. Richard: This is a teaching hospital, Derek. Derek: Yeah...my interview didn't go as well as I had hoped. I would like your support with the board. You have my credentials; you know I'm ready. Richard: I only have one vote. Derek: It's a strong vote. (Izzie walks past Bailey in the clinic) Izzie: Ok. I'm not feeling well. Bailey: (To George) What's wrong with that girl? (Bailey enters that bathroom where Izzie is hiding in a stall crying) Bailey: Look, I can't talk to you when you're making all that noise. So, pull it together and get out here. Now! Izzie: (Comes out) I have an 11-year-old daughter. She needs a bone marrow transplant. I'm potentially a good match. Please don't tell anybody, please. This isn't a chapter in my history that... Bailey: I understand. Izzie: She's here...my kid...and I'm supposed to go up to pediatrics and meet here. Right now and...I've thought about this moment. What I would look like. What I would say. But I thought I would be older. More together, more mature. I thought she would be older. I never thought that she would be sick. Oh god, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do. What do I do? (Conference room, Alex and Addison are sitting with Joan and Frank Waring, Jane Doe's potential parents) Joan: We love are daughter but we never got along with her husband. Alex: So, she has a husband? Frank: Had. One day while she was at work, he packed up and disappeared. Joan: He didn't want a baby but she went after him, even pregnant like that. Frank: We hadn't heard from her in months and then today we saw her picture on TV. Addison: Mr. and Mrs. Waring, the woman we found, if she is your daughter... Joan: (Pulling out a picture) Her nose is different and her chin but they'd said that her face had been...you know, changed. Alex: Do you happen to know your daughter's blood type? Joan: She's b positive. Addison: Any medical conditions, surgeries we should know about? Joan: She had her tonsils out when she was 12. Frank: It's her, isn't it? It's Shannon. (Susan is walking through the hall and Meredith sees her) Meredith: Susan? Susan: Meredith, hi. So glad I found you. Meredith: Twice in one day. Susan: Is this a bad time? I mean, I know you're always busy but... Meredith: Yeah, no, I'm just at work. Susan: Ok, I was, um...you know I'd really just love to talk with you. I'd love to find a time for you and me to sit down... Meredith: I'm sorry. This is too much, way too much. You keep showing up. I cannot be your daughter or your charity case or the thing that you need to fix. Susan: I'm not trying to... Meredith: No, no, stop talking, ok? Stop mothering. Just stop. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room where she is watching herself on the news) Jane Doe: My glamour sht's been on the news at least ten times already. Bet you're gonna miss me when my fancy family shows up to take me away. Alex: You don't know they're fancy. Open up. Jane Doe: Why what's wrong with my throat? Alex: How do I know, I haven't even seen it yet. Now open up. Jane Doe: No, not til you tell me what...wait...someone has recognized me, haven't they? Alex, Alex, you have to tell me who it is, please? Alex: Their daughter's blood type is b positive. She's your age, she's pregnant, you're height, you're hair color and she has no tonsils. So now you gonna open up? Jane Doe: Yes, please tell me I have no tonsils. Alex: Say ahh. Jane Doe: Ahh. Alex: No tonsils. (Mr. and Mrs. Waring enter) Jane: Shannon? Alex: Mr. and Mrs. Waring, I asked you to wait. I have tests to complete. Jane Doe: Alex, it's ok. Jane: Your name is Shannon Marie. Frank: Marie was my mothers name, your grandmother. Jane Doe: Shannon Marie (Bailey enters the clinic and gives instructions to George. Izzie is in the hallway nearby) Bailey: Ok, discharge beds 1 and 3. 2 needs a social worker and hold this down for me O'Malley. I'm gonna be out for awhile. George: Why? What's going on with Izzie? Bailey: What's going on with Stevens is none of your concern. What is your concern, sick people, all these sick people, until I get back, understand? (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Dr. Bailey. Just did a consult in trauma one, guy has a perf, can I scrub in? Bailey: No you cannot scrub in. You're here with O'Malley for now. Meredith: (To George) Hey, what's wrong with Izzie? George: Beds 7 through 13, start with number 8. He doesn't have much bladder control. (Charles' room) Burke: First Mr. Redford, while Dr. Marlow is preparing the surgical area, I will be examining the donor heart. Colin: Actually, I'm sorry, I'll examine the donor heart. I want to be sure the IVC orifice is open, so...Carry on. Burke: Then I'll open your chest and put you on bypass. At which point, we will connect the left atrium and the right atrium... Colin: The superior vena cava. It simplifies the subsequent cardiac biopsies. You didn't read my article in the cardio-thoracic monthly last year, did you? Well, I think Cristina has a copy of it. Cristina, may I? Cristina: Oh, of course. (She hands him the magazine and her nails are painted a rainbow of colors) Colin: Oh, what on earth? Cristina: Oh, testing colors. Colin: For the big day I assume. Cristina: I'm thinking...coral? (Mark walks up to Richard in the hall) Mark: Hey, chief, come here I want to show you something. Richard: I'm busy, Sloan. Mark: I need an update on my patient in room 3129. Nurse: Uh...hi. Mark: Hi. Nurse: Ok. I have that right here. Mark: I like those sneakers. You a runner? Nurse: Yeah. Mark: Me too. Maybe we should go running sometime. Nurse: Sure. Anything else I can help you with, Dr. Sloan? Mark: Nope, all good. (Nurse walks away) Wing man. Richard: Wing man. (Outside pediatrics, Bailey and Izzie are standing together) Izzie: Hannah's in there right now. Bailey: She is. You see her, you'll know what to do. Must be nice to know she has parents like this, who fight for her. Think about what she wants; try to make her happy, like you would have. Doesn't mean, you don't want that girl to want you. Izzie: Yeah. (Caroline and Dustin come out) Caroline: I'm...she's so, so tired. Dustin: We left it up to Hannah and she's just not ready. I'm sorry. Caroline: We don't wanna force it, maybe another time. Dustin: When she's feeling better. Izzie: Of course. I understand. Dustin: I'm sorry, but...the transplant? Bailey: Stevens? Hey, look at me, look at me. Your girl...you can want her to want you all day long but she has to be here if she's ever gonna have that chance again. Izzie: I'm sorry. Of course, yeah, I'm ready. Lets get started. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room where she is sitting with Frank) Jane Doe: Hey, guess what? I'm a teacher. I teach second grade at North Bend Elementary. Or at least I did. Frank: You can get your job back whenever you want. They love you there. When will we be able to take her home. Alex: You...you wanna take her back to... Frank: North Bend. We've got a room all set up for her. Your mom's got all of your books and your letters and diaries. Jane Doe: I kept diaries? Frank: About 800 of them. So even if you don't remember everything now, you will. Jane Doe: You hear that? I can go right? Alex: Well, you're still getting IV antibiotics and we're monitoring the baby very closely right now. Jane Doe: Yeah, but you can make it happen, right? Come on Alex don't doctor me. Help me get out of here. Alex: Dr. Montgomery's got you on strict bed rest until your delivery. But I'll ask, maybe you can do it from home. Jane Doe: Home... (Derek walks up to Meredith in the hallway) Derek: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Derek: You ok? Meredith: Horrible...I'm in a horrible mood. I yelled at Susan. I think I scared off my fake mommy forever. Derek: Hmm...need cheering up? Meredith: No. Derek: Me either. It's gonna be ok. (They hug) Meredith: You think? Derek: Yeah, Susan will be ok. (Richard walks out and sees them hugging) Meredith: How'd it go with the chief? Derek: Uh, about as well as you and Susan. Meredith: We make a good team. Derek: Hmm... (Meredith enters the clinic) Alex: Been waiting for you in really old guys room for 20 minutes. What gives? Meredith: Sorry, we decided to eat down here today. Alex: Nobody told me. George: Anybody...move. Anybody know what's going on with Izzie? Something's going on. Meredith: Why don't you just ask her yourself? George: Fine. I would if I knew where she was. Cristina: I bought you lunch. Meredith: You've got stuff on your hands. Cristina: I'm trying to scare away cardio god. Meredith: With pretty fingers? Cristina: You take his bishop. Hey pouty head. Aww you so sad cause no face girls family taking her home. Meredith: Really? Someone claimed Ava? Alex: Yeah, her parents. Meredith: She must be so relieved. Cristina: Yeah, unless they suck. Can you imagine? You can't remember a family and then they show up and it turns out they're psycho Kllers. Meredith: Yeah, or over sharers. Alex: Whatever. She's a patient. I don't give a crap who her parents are or where she goes. Can we move on? (Another part of the clinic) George: (To a patient) One second. (To Bailey) What's up with Izzie? Bailey: I told you it's none of your concern. George: No, it is my concern. I demand to know. Bailey: I hope I didn't just hear you say you demand. Are you her father? Are you her husband? Then stay here and keep your mind on your job, you hear me? (George walks off and Meredith walks up) Bailey: Grey? Uh, look...I need to be upstairs. So, do not let this out of your sight. Walk this to the lab, watch the lab run the test bring the test results directly to me. Nobody else. Meredith: It's Izzie. What's the matter? Bailey: You will be discreet and not ask a bunch of questions. Now this is a private matter. She needs these results, now. Meredith: Ok. (Izzie is in a room getting ready for her donation) Izzie: Wow. That's a big needle. Doctor: It's standard. You should start to feel numb about ten minutes after I inject the lidocaine, ok? Izzie: Yeah, I know. I've given epidurals before. I know that's the needle. It's just that somehow it seems so much bigger now that it's going into my spine. Doctor: Little stick. Izzie: Oh, god. Bailey: You sure I can't call someone? One of your friends? You're gonna need somebody to hold your hand. Izzie: No thank you. Bailey: You sure? Yeah well I can take a lot of pressure. It's rough as sand paper. Doctor: Little pressure. (Meredith is in the ambulance bay and George walks up to her) George: Meredith, tell me where she is. Meredith: I can't. If she wanted you to know, George... George: She does. She just...we're just having one of our stupid fights. Do you know how wrong it is if she's really in trouble and I'm not there because we're being idiots. Come on. Meredith, please. Meredith: She's upstairs in procedure room a. That's all I know. George: Thank you. (Outside Jane Doe's room, Joan is outside and Alex walks up. Frank is inside with Jane Doe.) Alex: So...Dr. Montgomery says you can take your daughter home. But she wants to talk to her local OB/GYN. There's some things she wants to go over before we release her. Joan: I can't. Alex: Ok...I can go through all this with your husband, if... Joan: No, you don't understand. I can't take her home. That girl is not my daughter. She does look an awful lot like Shannon. Sometimes she even sounds like her. Alex: Well, with the surgery and the loss of memory... Joan: A mother knows her own child, Dr. Karev. And that is not my child. Alex: But your husband, he... Joan: Look if that's not Shannon, we still don't know where our girl is. Do you understand? He needs it to be her. How am I supposed to tell him? How do I tell either of them? Alex: Mrs. Waring... Joan: Dr. Karev, would you ask my husband to meet me in the lobby? Alex: You have to face her. Joan: Please tell her I'm sorry. (Richard's office) Richard: Things have changed. Derek: No, no, nothing has changed. I deserve your support, Richard. Tell me I have it. Tell me I didn't move to Seattle for nothing. Richard: You moved to Seattle to start a new life and you did. You have a fantastic woman who loves you... Derek: This is not about my personal life. This is about my career... Richard: Do you know what being chief will do to your life? Why the hell do you think I'm getting a divorce? Or dying my hair? You can't do it all. Not if you wanna be chief. Derek: You couldn't do it all. Richard: And neither can you. Derek: Don't put your mistake on me. Don't. I am the best candidate for the job. You know it and I know it. And that is the only factor you need to take in consideration. You know, I don't need your protection Richard and I don't want it. Richard: I'm not trying to protect you Derek. I told Ellis...I promised her that I would look after her daughter. (George enters Izzie's procedure room) Bailey: O'Malley, did Stevens ask for you here? Izzie: No, no I did not! Bailey: Then you need to turn yourself around and go... George: You're giving bone marrow. Bailey: This is a private matter. George: I'm not leaving. Izzie: George! George: No...(To Bailey) Make me. Izzie: Hey! Doctor: Sorry, I'm starting now. Izzie: Just let me know when you're gonna do stuff, ok? George: Hey, you're ok. (To Bailey) I got it here. Bailey: Fine. Stevens, I'm going unless you need me to call security. Izzie: I'll manage. Thank you. You said back off. George: You didn't tell me you were having a bone drilled in your damn hip. For who? What's this private matter? Doctor: Ok, I'm going in when you're ready. George: Yeah. (Callie enters the clinic) Meredith: Hey, Callie. Callie: Hi. Meredith: Hi. So, if you could just take these two then that'll free me up to do... Callie: Oh, no, no, no. No, I'm not here to work. I'm um, I'm um, I'm um, I'm sorry. I haven't slept in like two days and I'm actually looking for George. We're supposed to meet up for coffee. Meredith: Oh. Callie: So, yeah. Meredith: Ok. He's uh with Izzie. I think, so...if you're not here to work I'm just gonna take these back. Thanks. (Charles' surgery) Burke: 15 blade. Colin: Suction please. Dr. Burke, you're not using the superior transaction approach for the atriotomy are you? Burke: Is that a problem? Colin: Not at all...unless your intention is to kll the patient. Burke: Dr. Marlow, from what I've read... Colin: Yes, well...reading about a procedure is one thing and performing it is quite another. It was my mistake. I should never have allowed you to scrub in. I think it best from this point on that you simply observe. Suction please. Hurry up. (Izzie's procedure room) George: You should use the wheelchair. You're gonna be sore. Izzie: I'm aware. I'm fine now. Thank you. George: Uh, you mean, pantless but fine? Izzie: Uh crap. (George helps her put her pants on) George: Stand. Izzie: I got it. George: Ok. Izzie: Hannah, an 11-year-old girl. That's the private matter. She's mine. Don't...don't look at me. My mother wanted me to keep her but I knew even at 16, I knew that baby deserved better then life at a Chalis trailer park. And now she's here and she might be dying and she doesn't wanna meet me. Oh, crap. I didn't think I really cared until she said no. How bout that? I can say hail Mary's until...until I turn into Mary but I still miss you. Not that the sex...it was not tragic but George...but I'll live without it. I won't make it if you can't be my friend. If we can't... George: What you did today...you should be proud. I'll get an orderly to take you downstairs but I have to go. You understand? (George leaves the room and suddenly turns back) (Cristina enters the OR where Burke is) Cristina: Some surgery. And Colin was... Burke: Brilliant. He's a gifted surgeon. Cristina: Listen I have a question. When you move the atrium to the vena cava why did you switch from 3.0 to 5.0 sutures? Burke: You wanna use the finest sutures you can for vascular structures. A delicate tissue demands a delicate touch. Cristina: Right. That makes sense. Thank you. Burke: Of course. See you at home? Cristina: Yeah. (Burke leaves and Colin walks in from behind the door where he had been hiding) Cristina: How long have you been standing there? Colin: Long enough. We've been playing our little game all day long. But what I just saw...that was real. That question you asked him, the question about the sutures that was from my paper, the one you helped me write. You already knew the answer. Cristina Yang I knew was concerned with excellence. She would've never played the part of helpless girl to build up a grown mans ego. What has become of you? Cristina: I've learned that sometimes you have to think about other people. Colin: You compromised yourself. Cristina: No. Colin: I'm going home. You're right it's senseless. Coming here, chasing after a job that was beneath me just so I could be near a women who... a woman who apparently no longer exists. Best of luck with the wedding. (George wheels Izzie to pediatrics) Izzie: There they are...I can't...I can't...you look. Please, you look for me. George: Ok. She's getting the infusion. You did it. Izzie: Is she um...how does she look. George: You can...you can see for yourself. It's ok; she can't see us from here. She's got your eyes. And your mouth...oh...it means she probably talks a lot and eats a lot then. If she's in pain she's not letting on. Man she's tough. (Izzie stands up to look at her daughter. There is a bald little girl) Izzie: That's her George, that's Hannah. George: Yeah. Izzie: She's beautiful, she's really beautiful. George: Yeah, she's a heartbreaker. (Derek walks into the clinic that is empty except for Bailey) Derek: You need some help with that? Bailey: I know you didn't just wander in here to help me change pillowcases. Derek: You warned me she could become a problem. Bailey: Who Meredith? Derek: You know, you love somebody; you think you can handle it all. Bailey: You've done all right, both of you. Derek: I came out here to be chief and Meredith complicates that. Bailey: Huh. If this turns into an either or, you pick the person you love, end of story. Look, all of this means nothing if you're alone. (Callie is waiting in the lobby for George) George: Oh, crap. Our coffee. I'm sorry, I forgot. I got so busy. Callie: Oh yeah with what? George: The clinic, patients. I mean...you know how it is. Oh man. Callie: Yeah, I know how it is. I'm tired...I'm really, really tired so I'll see you at home. George: Ok. Callie: Ok. George: Ok, ok. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room) Alex: Solitaire. Jane: My dad taught me. That sounds so weird...my dad. Good weird though. So, are you and the redhead gonna let me go home or are you too busy making eyes at each other to even ask. What? Alex: Ava... Jane: It's Shannon... Alex: Listen... Jane: My name is Shannon, Shannon Marie... Alex: I'm sorry. Jane: Those are supposed to be my people. I belong with them, Alex. I'm supposed to go with them. Alex: You're people...we don't even know who they are yet. Jane: You don't wanna find them. You wanna keep me all to yourself. Well here I am. Your pathetic cptive audience. Isn't it sad that I'm the best you can do? Alex: Ava... Jane: My name is not Ava. You made it up. It's not me. Get out, get out. MVO: Some people believe that without history our lives amount to nothing. (Richard and Mark enter a bar) Richard: Sloan, you brought me to a bar. You know I don't drink. Mark: Which is perfect. Better to keep you mind sharp. Let the ladies do the drinking. Richard: You think if you get me laid, I might make you chief. (Mark smiles) MVO: At some point we all have to choose. Do we fall back on what we know... (Burke and Cristina's apartment) Burke: I hear Dr. Marlow's going home. Cristina: About time. Burke: The finger nails, the hand holding, well played. Now you can get back to being Cristina. MVO: Or do we step forward to something new. (Derek is laying on the couch in his trailer) MVO: It's hard not to be haunted by our past. (Derek's phone rings and he ignores it. Meredith is in her house calling.) MVO: Our history is what shapes us, what guides us. (Meredith's doorbell rings, its Susan) Meredith: Seriously? Susan: Ok, that stops right now. Meredith: It's just I'm...I'm waiting for Derek and I'm very tired. Susan: I don't care. Let me in. Meredith: Excuse me? Susan: It's freezing out here and I've been working myself up to saying this...well, for a while now. So I need you to let me in now, please. (Enters the house) It's my fault your father didn't fight harder for you. I knew about you. I could've pushed him to be a part of your life. I should've pushed him. You were a child we were the adults. But we were just married and it was new and that's what I carried about. And I know the groceries and stuff are a little much. That's just what I do. I mean, quit looking at me like I'm crazy cause that not fair. I'm just trying to find a way to be there for you, the only way that I know how. And if you can't accept that fine. Just stop being so rude and I...ok...I'm overstepping again, aren't I? Meredith: As mothers go, I've only ever known overbearing never overprotective. This is all new. It's ok. Susan: It is? Meredith: Yes. MVO: Our history resurfaces time after time after time. (Mark and Richard are talking with a woman at the bar) Mark: Not just surgery but chief of surgery. Woman: Really? Richard: Oh well...not for much longer really. Mark: I'm gonna go over there. Hold down the fort chief. Richard: So, um, you come here often? Woman: Sometimes, it's on my way home from bio class. (Addison walks up) Addison: Excuse me, is this seat taken. Richard: No. It's was...it was nice talking you. (Woman leaves) Last time I tried to pick up a woman I had a Harvey Wallbanger in one hand and an afro pick in the other. Addison: Aww, Richard. Richard: I mean think about it, when you're married you like to think you still have game. Addison: Practice on me. Richard: I'm sorry? Addison: Mark's right. I mean, he's wrong about so many things but he is right about this. You need to get back out there so practice. Richard: Addison, I wouldn't know where to start. Addison: Ask me to dance. Richard: Well look...there's no dance floor. Addison: So...ask me anyway. (They start dancing) MVO: So we have to remember sometimes the most important history is the history we're making today.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x20 - Time after Time"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x21: Desire Original Airdate: 4/26/2007 Written by: Mark Wilding Directed by: Tom Verica (Seattle Scenes) (The interns are at Cristina and Burke's apartment studying for intern exams) Alex: What percentage of Americans look at an acute apnea? MVO: As interns we know what we want...to become surgeons. And will do anything to get there... Alex: What are the signs of a central line infection? Meredith: Puss, redness and fever. MVO: Suffer through kller exams, endure 100-hour weeks, stand for hours on end operating rooms. You name it we'll do it. Alex: What's Kahn's syndrome? Meredith: Wait, wait, I know this. Izzie: Tick tock dude. Meredith: Um... George: Cracking under the pressure? Meredith: No! Um...hypocortolis...cortolism... Cristina: Primary hypro dostrolonism. Yes, out of the seat. My turn. Izzie: No it's my turn. Cristina: No it's not. (Burke walks up with cake) Cristina: Oh honey I... Burke: Try this one. White sponge with vanilla butter cream. Cristina: Ok yeah. I'm trying to study for the most important test of my intern career. I don't have time for wedding cake. Burke: Just try it. Izzie: Go, go! George: What is the strongest layer of the small bowel? Cristina: Fine, yummy, go! Izzie: Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. George: It is not snot. Izzie: Submucousa George: Yes. Cristina: Wait, wait. How do you know that? Are you studying with the wife's cards? Meredith: What cards? Cristina: Callie was ranked number one in her year after this test. She has legendary flash cards. Izzie: So don't need the flash cards. We are independently brilliant. George: Dream team. Cristina: Yeah, yeah. I wanna hurl. Out of the seat. Alex: No, no my turn. Cristina: Oh come on. (Burke walks up with more cake) Burke: This is the lemon, might be a little tart. Izzie: What is atenicaratosis? Alex: Uh...atenicaratosis is uh...pre-malignant lesion. Cristina: In old people. Alex: In anyone. Burke: Is it too tart? Cristina: Baby, I don't care. I mean, is Alex right or am I? Burke: You don't care? Well I'll get another bride. Cristina: I love it. I love all cakes. Now break the tie. Burke: Karev's right. MVO: The tough part though is reconciling this huge thing we want, to be surgeons, with everything else we want. (Derek is entering the hospital, Meredith is right behind him) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hey. Meredith: I haven't seen you in a few days. I left messages. Derek: Yeah, I know. I was just trying to be... Meredith: I know I told you to stop hovering and you did and I appreciate but now stop the stopping. Derek: No, you're right. It's ridiculous to worry about you all the time. Meredith: It's sweet that you worry. Derek: Mmm hmm. Meredith: It is. I should communicate more. Derek: Right? Meredith: You don't think I can do it? I can do it. Derek: Really? Meredith: In a few seconds, I'll be getting on that elevator. And then I'll be going on rounds. See that? I'm getting on the elevator. Communicating. (Mark and Addison enter an elevator) Mark: 28 more days and then it's you and me in a locked room for a record breaking, earth shattering, mind blwing... Addison: Ok! I get it. Thank you. Mark: That was less then enthusiastic. Addison: I'm gonna be more enthusiastic when we uh...cross the finish line. Mark: Ok. Just making sure you haven't lost interest in the project. Addison: No, not at all. Mark: Good. (Mark leaves the elevator and Addison looks sad and disappointed) (Cristina and the other interns enter a conference room where Burke is setting up wedding cake samples) Cristina: Um, what are you doing? Burke: The bakery wants me to make a decision by tomorrow so if you can tell me your favorite by then that would be great. (Burke leaves) Cristina: Cakes and little place cards? Ok, he's turning into a girl. Izzie: I think it's sweet. He obviously cares about this stuff. Alex: This white one tastes pretty good. Meredith: I should bring a piece to Derek, right? That's what good girlfriends do. Take their boyfriends cake and communicate. Alex: No, the best ones just keep all that stuff to themselves. Cristina: Did you bring Callie's cards? George: Uh...no. Cristina: No cake for you. (Bailey enters) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, I saw hemiglossectomy on the board. Can I scrub in? Bailey: No, your not doing surgeries today. Meredith: What? Bailey: Your intern exams are in two weeks. You need to spend every available minute studying for them. Believe me, when you won't have to repeat your year as interns, you'll be thanking me for this opportunity. So, Grey and Yang, you're doing scut. O'Malley and Stevens, you'll be joining me in the clinic. Karev, you're with Ava. Alex: Oh, I don't always have to be on the case. Someone else can have her. Or not. (Izzie and George are alone in the conference room) George: So, last night we studied together. Today we're treating patients together. Izzie: And we're fine. We're not tortured. It's not weird. We made a mistake, we've moved on. George: If anything, I think it brings us closer together as friends. Izzie: We're very impressive. George: I think we are. (Bailey and Richard are walking through the hall) Richard: Larry Jennings just checked into the hospital. Bailey: What's the matter with him? Richard: I have no idea. His assistant said it was a matter of the utmost discretion. Bailey: Oh, that's never good. Richard: Well whatever it is, it was important enough for him to cut short his vacation and fly home. I want you on point on this one. No clinic today. Bailey: I can do both. Richard: Miranda, we're talking the Chairman of the Board of Seattle Grace Hospital. The clinic will survive without you for a day. Learn to delegate. Bailey: Who am I supposed to delegate to? (Sydney walks up) Sydney: Chief Webber, you paged me? Sydney Heron, reporting for duty. (Richard gives Bailey a look) (Alex enters Ava's room) Ava: Hey. I was wondering if I was gonna see you today. Where you been? Alex: Just getting my assignments. Ava: Yeah, anything good? Anything as good as a crazily, hormonal, pregnant amnesiac with a tendency to yell at their own people? Alex: Your blood pressure's higher that it should be. Ava: So, what? We're not friends anymore? Fine. Then I won't tell you about Dr. Montgomery's sex bet...with the overly hot Dr. Sloan. Yeah! If he can go 60 days without sex, they're getting back together. Apparently, they used to be a thing back when she was married to Dr. McDreamy. Alex: Question is how do you know all that? Ava: I'm a bed rest five feet from the nurse's station and I have excellent hearing. I know everything. It's...it's like watching a soap. Do you know how many doctors in this hospital Nurse Olivia has slept with? Oh wait...how am I talking to? You're one of them. Anyways, I strongly advise you to move on Dr. Montgomery before you lose your sht. Or I would if we were friends. Alex: Well, if she wants to be with Sloan... Ava: Dude! If she wanted to be with Sloan, she'd be with Sloan. (Bailey and Richard are walking through the hall) Richard: The other board members have a say in who gets to be chief but Larry...he's the one who really decides. Ok? He knows it and they know it. Bailey: So, if the attendings find out he's here... Richard: The man won't get a moment's peace. (Bailey and Richard walk around the corner and Addison, Mark, Burke and Sloan are standing in the hall outside Larry's room) All: Chief! Richard: You have to leave. I want you all out of here, ok? Look, go, go, go. Out! Mark: All right but you know where to find me. (Larry's secretary Celeste walks up) Celeste: Celeste, Larry's assistant. He's in here. Richard: Ok. Go away. Addison: But we can help! Burke: We can help? Addison: What is that supposed to mean? Burke: He doesn't have any woman parts. Derek: Look, it's not like we don't know where he is. Addison: Right. Mark: We'd just come back anyway. Derek: Right. (They all enter Larry's room) Larry: Richard, finally. Oh for God's sake what are the four musketeers doing here? What happened to I'll be discreet. Richard: Larry, they're here for the same reason I am...to see if they can help. Larry: Right...bunch of ghouls. All right, one of you wants to be the new chief...(he pulls down his pants) fix this and you've got my vote. (They all look stunned and bewildered) And no those are not grapefruits. Addison: Well...it looks as though you won't be needing my services after all. (Larry is in the bed being examined) Bailey: And supra-pubic tenderness. Larry: That's because I haven't taken a leak in three days. Three days... Burke: Could be a hernia. Derek: A hernia wouldn't do that. Burke: Was there trauma? Testicular torsion? Twisting? Mark: Twisting? You'd have to tie him in a triple knot to get that kind of fluid build up. Am I wrong? Larry: I was taking a two-week raft ride down the Amazon. Burke: Oh, maybe it's a tropical disease. Ocystalsomiasis? Philaryasis? Larry: Oh, now they're just guessing, Richard. Richard: Dr. Bailey, call Dr. Fisher in neurology to do a supra pubic cath and order an ultrasound and KEB. Larry have you called Nancy? Larry: I don't wanna worry my wife unless I have to. Mark: She wasn't on the trip with you? (Addison is in the conference room where the cakes are set up) Addison: White chocolate with vanilla butter cream. (Alex enters) Alex: Dr. Montgomery? Addison: Can't decide...triple berry at least has fruit so I could pretend it's healthy. Alex: Ava's BP is 171 over 118. Addison: She's pre-eclamptic. Alex: I ordered a blood test and a bio-physical test on the baby who's fine but Ava's got edema. Addison: Get her on ammonium hydrolozine. Alex: What about an epidural...to get her blood pressure down? I mean, am I going overboard or...? Addison: Believe me, I wish I had someone who cared that much about my blood pressure. Alex: Yeah well...from what I hear, in 28 days you will. (Izzie and George are working in the clinic) James: I have a cold like forever. I've been here three times and they keep telling me it's gonna go away but my nose just won't stop running. I'm like the most disgusting fountain in the world. Izzie: Sometimes these things just drag on. You might have to wait it out. James: No, I can't wait anymore. See there's a girl...and we've been out a few times and now it's gotten to the point where we're supposed to...you know, seal the deal. But the nose thing is so gross I can't get anywhere near her. Izzie: I'm sure if she's really into you, she'll hang in there. James: No, no, no...you don't understand. Have you ever met someone where the attraction was so intense you thought it may just kll you? You know like your in the same room and your skin is on fre. You wanna touch them so bad... Izzie: Ok, we get it. We're on the case. George: Yes, I will do an ENT and you will listen to his...(He stares at Izzie) Izzie: Chest? George: Yes. Izzie: I'm on it. (Cristina and Meredith are in the hallway studying) Meredith: Which fluid resuscitation technique is used in acute burns? Cristina: Packlin formula. Come on Meredith, step it up. Meredith: What is vertals stria? (Cristina is looking on at George and Callie talking) Cristina: Oh, I hate George. He married into the cards. You think he knew? You think that's why he married her? Meredith: Yeah, that's why he married her. Cristina: I need those cards. Meredith: We don't need the cards. What is vertals stria? (Cristina walks up to Callie) Cristina: Dr. Torres, Dr. Burke and I are trying to choose a wedding cake and there are some samples in the conference room. If you have a moment, I'd really love your opinion because you have such great taste. Callie: You're not getting my cards, Yang. (George walks up to Bailey) George: Dr. Bailey? You need an intern? Bailey: Yeah, how's it going...in the clinic, O'Malley? How's Sydney doing? George: Oh that's...why you wanted to see me? To find out...how things were going? (Celeste walks up) Celeste: Dr. Bailey? Can I talk to you for a second? Bailey: Of course, Ms. Newman. What can I do for you? Celeste: This is embarrassing. Mortifying actually. I think I need to be tested. Larry and I...whatever Larry has, I probably have it as well. Bailey: O'Malley, page Dr. Montgomery. George: Ok. (Izzie and Sydney are in the clinic) Sydney: How's it going buddy bud? Izzie: I'm getting a strep culture on bed nine and discharging Mr. Benton. Sydney: The gentleman with the sinus issues? Izzie: It's a runny nose. And I have a test to study for and Bailey doesn't like us to... Sydney: Ah! Bailey's not here today. Ok, I am. And it's all well and good to open a clinic as some kind of power play for chief resident but chief resident isn't really about big think it's about patient care, ok? So, lets see what we can do to improve Mr. Benton's experience. Izzie: It's just a cold. Sydney: Nasal lavage. Because we care. Izzie: Nasal lavage? Sydney: Yeah, get yourself a bulb syringe, squeeze an isotomic solution into one of Mr. Benton's nostrils. It'll squirt right out the other side, incredibly restorative. Rinse and repeat...rinse and repeat. (Celeste's exam room) Celeste: It's not what you think. I mean it is...it's...it's just not an affair. Though I guess, technically it is. We're in love. The kind of love you think you're never gonna find and then you do and the fact that he's married seems a small price to pay for being happy, you know? At least most of the time but then five years go by and he still hasn't left his wife...you must think I'm a terrible person. Addison and George: No, no, no. Addison: No judgment whatsoever. Celeste: I mean, I know, I should leave him, it's just...do you have any idea how rare it is to find someone you can work and play with. And we love each other. How wrong can it be? (Larry's room) Larry: Richard, this thing still hurts like hell and my boys here are not getting any smaller. I wanna know what you're doing about it? Richard: Well, the urologist just drained your bladder. Next up is an ultrasound and an x-ray. Interns will be taking you... Larry: No, no, no. I mean, what are you doing for me? Richard: Getting some of the best surgeons in the world to help you. Larry: I came here for you. You! You're the best surgeon in this place. At least you used to be. Richard: What's the matter, Larry? Am I not taking enough care of you? Larry: How does a man, just lose his desire at 53, 54 or however old you are? How does that happen? Richard: I haven't, ok? There are other things in life. Larry: Like what? Adele leaving you? Even more reason to keep the job. You're a surgeon man. I had to go skinny dipping in the Amazon to get that kind of thrill. Richard: I'm not gonna let you browbeat me into keeping this job. Larry: Like I'd even want to at this point. When I appointed you chief of surgery, you were hungry. You were the man. Now you're a politician, giving me excuses, handing things off. I hate to think that's the kind of doctor you've become. But if it is, maybe it is best that you're stepping down. (Bailey enters the room where Cristina and Meredith are studying) Bailey: I know, I said you could use the day to study but we've got an all hands on deck situation. Cristina: A bad car accident? Meredith: Multiple gn wounds? Bailey: A penis, Chairman of the board's penis. Meredith: What's wrong with it? Bailey: His testicles have swollen which is the understatement of the year. Cristina: Fantastic how much? No, don't tell me. Let it be a surprise. Bailey: Look, you and Grey can take him for his ultrasound and his x-rays. Cristina: The VI Penis. Bailey: Just go. (Burke and Derek are in a computer room) Burke: Elephantisis? Derek: Mmm-hmm. Burke: No way Jennings has that. Did you check combrusolosis? Derek: Could be the beginning of funia's gangrene. (Mark enters) Mark: I don't know. I'd go with gonorrhea before I went there. Then again, I'll be there at the finish line to make him pretty, which is what he'll remember. Oh, Derek... Derek: Mmm-hmm. Mark: Grey wanted me to tell you that she's still working on Jennings' x-ray and that she'll be in the x-ray viewing room. Derek: Good to know. She's communicating. Just when I need time to think, she suddenly starts communicating. Burke: Time to think about what? Derek: All of it. The relationship, the chief thing, how to juggle them both without getting distracted. Burke: With Cristina I have to be explicit. There would be no wedding if I wasn't. Derek: Well, that's not easy though. Burke: Oh no. I never said it was easy. Derek: Right. (Ava is watching the nurse's desk from her room and sees Callie and Addison talking) Callie: Hey. Addison: Hey. How's it going? Callie: I caught George in a lie the other day. He said he spent the day in the clinic when he spent it doing God knows what with Izzie Stevens. It's probably nothing, right? Addison: Right. Callie: Right. So how's your man whore? Miraculously reformed? Addison: For now. He's never going to turn into what I want. Callie: Which is. Addison: The whole thing. I want someone sab who barbeques and teaches little kids how to play catch. And is not Mark Sloan. Which doesn't explain why I've spent the entire day looking at Alex Karev like a puppy and a chew toy. Callie: Why don't you just go there already? Addison: Because! He doesn't barbeque either. Plus, he's like twelve years old and can fit all of his belongings in a milk crate. Callie: I don't know. Guys like Karev...at least you know, he'll never lie to you. Guys like him, they mess around in their twenties but then they, you know, pack it in and teach their kids to play catch. Addison: Maybe. I need to stop thinking about both of them. Callie: And I have to stop thinking about Izzie Stevens. Addison: Hey, Callie, here's the thing. When you're obsessing about something like that, there's generally a reason. (Izzie is in the clinic performing the nasal lavage on Mr. Benton when Bailey comes in) Bailey: What the hell are you doing? Izzie: Nasal lavage. Bailey: Why? Izzie: Because she's trying to kll me. (Sydney walks up) Bailey: Sydney. Sydney: Dr. Bailey, we've really turned this place around today. Bailey: Nasal lavage? Sydney: Four visits in one month? Bailey: Oh, you questioning my patient care? Sydney: Miranda, I get it. Ok? You're protecting your turf. Very mama bear, very chief resident. But this is not about hospital politics, this is about the patient. Bailey: The patient can go home. Get that stuff out of his nose. Sydney: No, I'm not comfortable discharging him till we've addressing is problem. Bailey: The 16 patients in the waiting room aren't comfortable either. Bailey: (To James) Sir...I don't think there's anything else we can do. You know, colds drag on. James: Yeah, yeah, I hear ya. (He gets off the bed) Bailey: Oh hell. Izzie: What? (There is blood/fluid on the pillow) Bailey: That come out of his nose? James: See? This is why I'm never gonna have sex again. Bailey: Wait right here. (To Izzie) Order a head CT. Izzie: Why? It's not a cold? Bailey: No, Dr. Stevens. It's definitely not a cold. (Derek enters the x-ray room where Burke, Mark, Cristina and Meredith are) Meredith: Hey, just so you know I'll be over here while you're over there, ok? Derek: Cute. Meredith: Easy to locate, right? Derek: Mmm-hmm. Meredith: Girlfriend comes with a GPS. Derek: Looks like some kind of foreign object. Mark: Ouch. Burke: That almost looks like... Mark: A skeleton. It's skeleton like, definitely skeletony... Burke: Are those barbs? Mark: No...can't be. Derek: Oh could be. Meredith: It looks like a teeny tiny catfish. (Richard enters) Richard: Close. You see there. Those are spines. This is a candiru fish. Cristina: A penis fish? This guy has the penis fish. In his...in his...wow! (Alex enters Ava's room) Ava: What the hell did you do to me? Alex: You know, most pregnant laboring women love their epidurals. Ava: I'm not in labor. Alex: I'm trying to keep it that way. Ava: By paralyzing me from the waist down? I can't even sit up in the bed. I'm missing the show. The Seattle Grace show. Alex: I can help with that. Ava: So I guess you're talking to me again. Alex: Well, I can't stay mad at you. I tried but I couldn't do it. Ava: You make your move on the redhead? Alex: I thought you already knew everything that went on in this hospital? Ava: As a matter of fact, I have an update. I saw her talking to the ortho resident. Alex: Yeah? And? (Ava starts seizing) Alex: You're seizing...She's seizing. Somebody page Dr. Montgomery. Somebody page Dr. Montgomery, now. (Richard is in Larry's room) Richard: It's the candiru. It's a freshwater fish that lives in the Amazon. It's a parasite. Larry: I'm not an idiot; I didn't drink from the Amazon. Richard: Did you urinate in it? Larry: No, I...what? Cristina: The candiru is attracted to blood and urine. It's been known to swim up the stream of urine and lodge itself in a man's urethra. Larry: You mean a fish swam up... Richard: It's rare but there are documented cases. Cristina: One man actually saw it go in and tried to grab it. It was too slippery. Richard: Yang! Cristina: It's in the literature. Larry: So this thing is in my... Richard: It's now in your bladder. Well, right next to it. It's stuck in your prosthetic urethra, which is causing the obstruction. We need to get it quickly before it causes sepsis. Larry: Sepsis? You mean I could die? (Alex is taking Ava through the hall to the OR) Alex: BP sh*t up to 202 over 134. There's fetal distress, the epidural didn't help. Addison: It'll help during delivery. Ava: What's going on? Alex? Alex: Your blood pressure spiked, you had a seizure. Addison: The only way we can reduce your blood pressure and the swelling in your brain is if you deliver the baby right now. Ava: She's only 30 weeks. I'm not in labor. Addison: We're gonna do a C-section, Ava. Don't worry, the survival rate for preemies at 30 weeks is extremely high. Ava: Alex, tell her no. I'm not ready. Alex: You're ready. Ava: But I can't do this by myself. Alex: Well then it's a good thing you're not by yourself. (He takes her hand) (Derek enters the CT room where Izzie and Bailey are looking at the CT results) Derek: I was doing a consult on the chairman of the board, this better be good. What do we have? Bailey: Well, we have a patient in the clinic with chronic runny nose, halo sign on the pillow. The fluids are still in the lab but as far as I can tell... Derek: He's leaking spinal fluid through his nose. Bailey: Thought you might like this one. Derek: Ok, look at that. It's a brain herniation. His brain is literally sinking into his skull base. Bailey: And all along I thought it was a cold. Derek: Book an OR. Izzie: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Oh no, no. You're still studying. You can watch from the gallery. I'll scrub in with you. Derek: I thought you were doing Jennings? Bailey: No, I'll...I'll do both. I sent this guy home three times. I can't not scrub in. (Ava's OR) Addison: Your daughter's beautiful Ava. Ava: She is? Alex: She is. Addison: Get her under the warmer right away. Alex: I'll work on her... Addison: Hand her off to peds, I need an extra set of hands. Need to hang some blood. Ava: Why? Why do you need blood? Alex: Want me to get the uterine arteries? Clamp. Ava: Alex, what's going on? Alex? Addison: The bleeding vessels are deep... Ava: Tell me what's going on. Addison:...you want to... Alex: Ligate around the hemostats, I got it. Ava: Oh my god! Am I gonna die? Oh my god, I'm gonna die. Alex: Can I? Ava: I'm gonna die and she's gonna be all alone. Alex: Ava...Ava...look at me, ok? Look at me! You're not gonna die. You're doing great. You're gonna be fine, you're baby's gonna be fine. I just need you to breathe for me, all right? Nice slow, deep breaths. That's it. Just breathe. Keep breathing. (George walks up to Celeste in the hall) George: Celeste, good news. No chance of an STD. Now, Larry's condition...he's having surgery but you're fine. You did hear the part about you being fine, right? Celeste: That's what I keep telling myself...that I'm fine with things the way they are but I probably won't be really fine until I don't care if he's fine anymore. (Larry's wife, Nancy, walks up) Nancy: Celeste, I got here as soon as...is he in surgery yet? Celeste: Um, no. They're taking him soon. This is Dr. O'Malley. George: Hi. Celeste: Dr. O'Malley this is Mr. Jennings' wife, Nancy. Nancy: Hi. George: It's a pleasure. He's just in there...they're prepping him for surgery. Nancy: Thank you. I left my car in front in a no parking zone. Could you move it? (Nancy hands Celeste the keys and enters Larry's room) George: What are you going to do? Celeste: Move her car. (Cristina, Izzie, George and Meredith are in the conference room) Meredith: Talk about divine retribution. Izzie: What? Meredith: He sleeps with his assistant and a carnivorous fish lodges itself in his penis. That's instant karma if I've ever seen it. Cristina: Yeah, well Derek wasn't struck by lightning and neither were you. Meredith: Addison showed up. I had months of pain and self-loathing, Crazy ranting mother and a near drowning off the side of a dock. I mean, it's not fish in my hoo-hoo but it's certainly not an easy ride. Cristina: Yeah, well, I've cheated on my boyfriends and I'm fine. Am I the only one? George: Which cake is your favorite or have you chosen one yet? Cristina: Ok, clearly you're not getting the point. I don't have favorite cakes. That's why you're involved. Meredith: I gotta go. If you see my boyfriend tell him I had some tuna salad and a yogurt and now I'm off to the OR. Cristina: Hey, this is uh, it's not eating for pleasure. I really need a choice so mark down your favorite. (Meredith and Cristina leave) Izzie: Sorry I froze there...a little bit...uh George: It's ok. Izzie: I'm not...I'm not getting weird...you know...it was just a weird time... George: Shut up and eat some cake. (He shoves cake in her mouth) Izzie: (Mumbling with her mouth full) (Callie is standing outside the window watching George and Izzie giggle and have fun together) George: Good? Izzie: Disgusting. George: You got me covered in cake. (Addison walks up to Alex in the hall) Addison: Karev. Alex: Hey, I was just checking up on Ava. Addison: Do I have another Denny Duquette situation on my hands? Alex: What? Are you serious? Addison: I have never seen you so attentive with a patient. You're always there, checking her stats, running tests, doing research. Alex: It's my job. Addison: No, it's my job. I'm her doctor you're my intern. Alex: Which is why I have to know her stats at all times because I'm not about to stand next to you in your OR and be anything less than over prepared. Ok? There's no way I'm going to go to work everyday with a surgeon like you and not be on top of my game. So, if you wanna yell at me... (Addison starts kissing Alex and pushes him into an on call room and they both start undressing.) (Cristina walks up to Callie who is standing at the nurse's station) Cristina: I know you have to give him the cards cause you're married to him; I respect that. But there is an argument to be made for female surgeons sticking together. Callie: You're relentless. Cristina: Sisterhood and all that you know. Callie: Mmm-hmm. Scary...inhuman relentless. Cristina: You are like a role model...to me...or something. Callie: Ok, you know what stop. This is just getting sad. I will give the cards to George, I am sure he will share. Cristina: No he won't...with me anyway. He'll just share them with Izzie. They're like an exclusive little unit...whatever. (Cristina walks away and Callie calls after her.) Callie: Yang. My uh...my locker is on the right side, third one from the door. The cards are on the top shelf. Cristina: Really...you're...? Callie: They're all yours. (Addison walks out of the on call room fixing her skirt. A minute later Alex walks out and they bump into each other.) Addison: Oh god. I'm sorry. Alex: It's ok. Addison: I was... Alex: Yeah... Addison: So we're good? Alex: It's good. Addison: Good. Ok then. (They walk away and Mark is standing nearby and has watched the whole exchange) (Izzie enters the elevator not paying attention and Callie follows her in) Callie: Don't talk. I know it's not fair and I know it's not your fault and I know there's nothing going on between you and George, I know that except there is. You're his best friend. He loves you. He gets you he needs you. And I'm just...I'm his wife. And I know...I get the sex and the commitment and the life with him but I want him to get me and to need me and I can't compete with you. So I am asking you to please stop...just stop. Find another friend or whatever you do. Just give me my husband back. (Callie storms out and leaves Izzie standing in the elevator to feel guilty) (Larry's OR) Richard: What about the fork stone grasper? Dr. Fisher: It can lead to urethral injury. Richard: Well, the forceps aren't working. At this point I'm willing to try anything. Dr. Fisher: All right, stone grasper. Richard: Ok. (Meredith and Cristina enter the OR) Meredith: (To Mark) Did we miss anything good? (He doesn't respond) Hello? You ok? Mark: I've had better days. Richard: Where's Dr. Bailey? Page her. Richard: V-tach. Does he have a pulse with that? Cristina: Oh, he's going down. Burke: Yes. He needs one epi amnioterone. How much longer you think it'll take? Richard: Oh, you worry about getting his arrhythmia's down. We're gonna have to change our game plan here. The scope isn't working. Excuse me, Dr. Fisher, we're gonna have to open him up. Dr. Fisher: All right. (James' OR) Bailey: I don't know how I missed it. Derek: It presented as a cold, Miranda. This sort of thing, at some point, you think it's gonna get better. You don't really figure it's something that could ruin your whole life. (Bailey's pager goes off) Bailey: The chief. Derek: Candiru, go ahead we're almost done here. Bailey: Ok. Derek: Thank you. (George enters the gallery where Izzie is) George: Hey. You wanna quiz me on GI stuff? Izzie: No, I'm still trying to get through my cardio notes. George: You ok? Izzie: I'm fine. I should've snuck into the candiru surgery with Meredith and Cristina. George: You still can. Izzie: George, can you, maybe, stop talking so I can concentrate. George: What's your problem? Izzie: My problem...is you. You're my penis fish. George: Your what? Izzie: You've crawled in and latched on and now I can't move or talk or think or even pee without the nagging feeling that something is eating through my organs. George: You don't even have a penis. How am I the fish? Izzie: It's a metaphor, George. George: What happened to us being fine? Izzie: I don't know. Maybe we're not. (Larry's surgery) Richard: A little more suction in there. Those barbs won't let go. (Bailey enters) Dr. Bailey, glad you could join us. Oh, this is useless. We're gonna have to cut it out, Dr. Fisher. Dr. Fisher: I'll repair the bladder. Richard: Ok, lets do it. How's his heart holding up? Burke: Occasional runs of v-tach. He can't take much more. Richard: Forceps. Ok, almost there. Come on you. Almost there. Got it. Cristina: Holy... (Everyone makes noises and whispers amongst themselves when Richard holds up the candiru.) Burke: Unbelievable. Cristina: You see that thing? Meredith: Yep. (Meredith and Mark are in the scrub room) Meredith: Remind me never to pee in the Amazon. What? Mark: What do you say we have a real meeting of the dirty mistresses club? Like what it should have been from the beginning. Meredith: What are you doing? Mark: Once, twenty minutes in the on-call room, nobody ever finds out. Meredith: Mark! Mark: What? You telling me everything's great between you and Derek? Meredith: What makes you think there is something wrong between me and Derek? Mark: Something's always wrong between you and Derek. Meredith: Enough! What is wrong with you? Mark: Nothing. I'm...I'm...Addison and I were gonna try and make a go of it. Things are not gonna work out. Meredith: So you make a pass at me like that'll help? Mark: She doesn't want me. Something's gotta help. Meredith: Revenge sex is not the answer. If you're letting her go, let her go. Be an adult. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room) Jane Doe: Thanks for the baby...and for me not dying and stuff. Alex: It's always a nice bonus when the patient doesn't die. Jane Doe: You and red make a pretty good team. Alex: Don't tell Sloan. Jane Doe: Oh, she and Sloan aren't happening. She wants you. Alex: How do you know that? Jane Doe: I know everything remember. Heard her talking to the ortho doc about how she wants someone who barbeques and plays catch. She wants someone who's committed. Alex: Yeah, well, that's not me. Jane Doe: I hate to tell you this, but it is. You may talk tough but you're a decent guy, Alex. Whether you want to admit it or not, you're actually one of the good ones. (George walks up to Nancy Jennings in the waiting room) George: Mrs. Jennings, your husband's out of surgery. Everything went very well. Nancy: Oh...oh thank you. Thank you. That's...that's wonderful. The doctor will be down to fill you in soon. Dr. O'Malley, do me a favor. Could you go tell Celeste? She's a basket case and I just don't have it in me to take care of my husband's girlfriend right now. (George looks shocked) Of course I know. The wife always knows. (George is in Larry's room. Nancy is sitting next to his bed reading a book when Celeste enters) Celeste: Dr. O'Malley? George: Yes? Celeste: Mr. Jennings' personal physician would like a copy of his medical records and here's the number. George: Ok. Celeste: Mr. Jennings, I've cancelled your appointments for next week. There's just a conference call that's proving a little bit difficult to reschedule but I'm sure Danny can handle it. Larry: What's...what's Danny go to do with it? Celeste: I've asked him to step in...temporarily...until you find someone else. Larry: Wait... wait a second, Celeste. (Celeste leaves) What the hell was that all about? Nancy: Well, I think she just left you. Good-bye Larry. (Nancy leaves) Larry: What the hell's going on here? George: I think I'm done here. (George leaves) (Burke enters the conference room where Izzie is eating wedding cake) Izzie: Can you be a vault? I think I need a vault cause I've eaten like...a cake and a half and it's not just not cutting it. And you don't gossip. Burke: Because nobody tells me anything. Izzie: I was with a married man. It was... Burke: I don't mind that nobody tells me anything. Izzie: It was George. I was with George. (Burke eats some cake) Burke: It should be firm inside, not spongy. The frosting, I like. Meringue, light but not to sweet. I always thought chocolate inside but I'm leaning away from that. Izzie: You've thought a lot about this cake. Burke: This cake...for this day...with this woman. Izzie: The red velvets your winner, by the way. (Meredith enters Derek's trailer) Derek: What are you doing here? Meredith: I wanted you to know where I was so I thought I'd come and tell you. Derek: Now you're mocking me. Meredith: I'm apologizing to you. (She kisses his neck) Derek: You're making light of things. Meredith: I'm running my fingers through your hair...I'm standing in your bedroom...unbuttoning my shirt...and now I'm taking off my pants...and now...I'm getting in your bed naked. (Mark walks by Addison on the stairs) Addison: Mark, we need to um...we should go get a drink...and maybe talk. Do you have some time? I just...something's always wrong...with you and me. Mark: You don't wanna have a drink with me. I'm not what you're looking for. Addison: What are you talking about? Mark: I slept with someone, couldn't hold out. Once a man-whore, always a man-whore, right? (Richard walks up to Bailey who is writing on the OR board) Richard: Miranda, go home. Bailey: I'm almost done. Richard: Go home see your family. You have to accept there are days when you can't do it all. You have to delegate. Bailey: I do. Richard: And then you do all the work anyway. And you're still doing it. Bailey: You didn't have better things to do today then to ride herd on that VIP case? Richard: There was a fish in a man's penis. Bailey: There's always gonna be a fish in a man's penis, chief. You can say you moving on all you want but are you really? Richard: If you don't slow down, you might end up without a family to go home to. Good night, Miranda. (Meredith and Derek are laying in bed) Meredith: No, see, you can't do that. Derek: Do what? Meredith: Not look happy after sex. It's bad for the ego. Derek: I'm fine. Meredith: Are we fine? Derek: Sure. Meredith: Not so convincing. I shouldn't have accused you of hovering. It wasn't nice. You were just trying to be there for me. But now I'm being available and communicating and being naked and doing all of your favorite things. Derek: Mmm, good things. Meredith: Then why are you still staring at the ceiling? Derek: I don't know. It's just that...that day...you came out of the water...I spent the scariest hour of my life trying to breathe for you. I love you and I want you but I don't know what to...you didn't swim. You didn't swim and you know how to...and I don't know if I can...I don't know if I wanna...keep trying to breathe for you. Meredith: I should go. I'll go. MVO: To often, the thing you want most is the one thing you can't have. (Cristina and Burke's apartment) Cristina: What acid based finding do you classically get with significant vomit? Hypokalemic, hypochloremic, metabolic, acilosis. Unbelievable. Burke: Did you pick a cake? Cristina: I like the red one. Burke: The red velvet? Cristina: Yeah. (He takes her card from her and kisses her.) (Izzie and George are outside of James' room where a woman is inside) George: That's the girl? Izzie: Runny nose guys big love...I don't know how we do this. I don't know how we work together and be friends and act like it's all-ok. George: I...there's a spot available at Mercy West...I called them. Izzie: You're gonna transfer to Mercy West? George: Yeah, I have to. MVO: Desire leaves us heartbroken; it wears us out. Desire can wreck your life. (Alex is in the lobby studying when Addison enters) Addison: Hey. Alex: Hey. Addison: I was gonna go get a drink. You wanna head over to Joe's? Alex: Yeah...I'm uh...I'm kinda under with this test. Addison: Ok. You know, um, I took that test once upon a time. We could, um, go back to my hotel. I could quiz you. Alex: Look...this...this isn't...you're not my girlfriend. Ok? Addison: What? Alex: I mean, no offence, today was awesome but...I'm really busy, I have a lot of work. I don't have time for... Addison: No, of course...uh...study. It's what you're here for, right? (Addison leaves the building) MVO: But as tough as wanting something can be...(Addison pauses in front of the hospital)...the people who suffer the most...(Addison turns and looks back at the hospital)...are those who don't know what they want.

GREY'S ANATOMY 3x22: The Other Side of This Life (Part 1) Original Airdate: 5/3/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Michael Grossman (Seattle Scenes) MVO: The dream is this: that we'll finally be happy when we reach our goals... (Meredith is sitting on the couch at her house watching TV) MVO: ...find the guy, finish our internship. That's the dream; then we get there and if we're human, we immediately start dreaming of something else. (Izzie enters) Izzie: It's 3 in the morning, what are you doing up? Meredith: What are you doing up? Izzie: Can't sleep. (Alex enters) Alex: What are you watching? Izzie: Why can't you sleep? Alex: No reason. MVO: Because if this is the dream then we'd like to wake up... (Seattle scenes) (Cristina wakes up to hear laughing coming from the living room of her apartment) MVO: ...now please. Burke: Don't worry I'm not. Ok. (She looks out and sees her mom and Burke's mom in the kitchen) Helen: Cristina, stop lurking. Come and say good morning to your guest. Cristina: Good morning mother. Good morning Mrs...mama. What...is everyone...everyone doing here so early? Jane: Early? Darling, by the look of the calendar we should have been here six months ago. Helen: She doesn't understand what goes into planning a wedding. Burke: Breathe. Sip then breathe. (Derek and Richard are walking through the hall of the hospital) Richard: The police haven't found anything on our Jane Doe. Derek: I believe she calls herself Ava now. Richard: Yes, well, she doesn't seem to be getting her memory back. Derek: Well, now that the rest of her medical problems are taken care of I'll see what I can do. Richard: That'd be great, thanks. (Mark walks up) Mark: Anybody seen Addison? Richard: She's gone. Mark: Gone? Richard: She took a leave of absence. Mark: Why? I mean, did she tell you why? Derek: What'd you do to her, Mark? Richard: She didn't give a reason. Mark: Did she tell you where she was going? Richard: All she said was she needed some time...to be happy and free if I recall correctly. Excuse me. (Addison is in her car driving down the interstate. She is grinding gears as she goes and finally arrives at a building. The sign out front reads Oceanside Wellness Group. She nearly gets run over by bicyclists while attempting to take her jacket off and enter the building. She gets into the elevator and a guy, Pete, gets in after her. She begins laughing.) Addison: I'm sorry. I'm sorry, it's just...um, where I come from...elevators tend to be this kind of aphrodisiac. You know? You look in on them and they just get all horny. Oh no, no. Not that I'm um...talking about you and I. I'm just saying that it's a relief, you know, to be on a not horny elevator. You know? Just get on, ride...without the sex. Right? (He gets off the elevator) Addison: Oh my god. Oh my god, I'm becoming a crazy freak, crazy inappropriately chatting freak. Voice: Becoming? Seems like you're already there. (Addison continues to look around for where to voice is coming from) (Cristina is standing outside a curtain at the hospital with her mom and Burke's mom, waiting to talk to Callie) Callie: Oh, hey. Hi. Cristina: Hello. Callie: Someone have bones that need resetting? Or...? (Cristina whispers something) Callie: Excuse me? Cristina: Bridesmaids. My mother and Burke's mother have been talking on the phone and now they are here...with me. Helen: To plan the wedding. Callie: Oh. Jane: Cristina led us to believe that you were friends. (Callie laughs and Cristina gives her a dirty look) Callie: Oh, ok. I guess. Jane: Good it's settled. (Helen starts measuring Callie) Callie: Whoa, wait...what are you...are you...are you actually asking me... Cristina: To be one of my bridesmaids, yeah. (They both give each other dirty looks) (Meredith walks up to Derek who is standing at the nurse's station) Meredith: You get any sleep? Derek: I did, actually, after I evicted a raccoon that chewed his way into the luggage compartment. Meredith: Mmm, the trailer. Derek: Yes. Meredith: So, while you were sleeping...when I drowned it was different for you then it was for me. Something happened to me and I really don't know how to explain it without sounding like...I just, I feel different. I wanna be better at everything and I wanna let you in. I swear. Derek: Did you practice that? Meredith: With hand gestures but I dropped those. Just now is not the time to give up on me, ok? That's what I'm saying. Derek: Ok. Meredith: Ok? Derek: Yep. (Hollywood scenes) Dell: (On the phone) Oceanside Wellness Group. Uh yes, you're confirmed for Tuesday at 4. Oh, no, no ma'am, no I'm not a doctor. I don't know what you should do about the itchiness down there. Ok, yeah, ok, ok, bye. Addison: Hi, I am...I think I'm in the right place. I'm looking for...Maya? Is that you? Maya: Addison! Addison: Oh my god. You got so big. What are you like 45 now? (A woman, Naomi walks up) Naomi: Maya, you're gonna be late for school...Addison. Addison: Naomi. Surprise! I got lost like 8 times. I smell like someone who's been driving in a car for two days and I think I just had some kind of psychotic break in your elevator but um...surprise! Naomi: Maya, go get your backpack. (Maya walks off) So...what do you want Addison? Addison: I miss you. Naomi: Really? Cause I haven't heard from you in over a year. Unless you count the Christmas card which was nice. Addison: I know, I know...I'm sorry about...I'm sorry. Naomi: I left you messages on your pager... Addison: right. Naomi: I emailed you. I had some really special conversations with your voicemail. Addison: All right, could we just let this go? I've been having some rough times lately. Ok? I got divorced. Naomi: So did I. Addison: Oh my god. You and Sam? (Sam and Maya walk up) Sam: Addison: Maya: Bye, daddy. Sam: Bye baby. Addison: Hey. Sam: Hey. Addison: Sam, I'd say good to see you but... Sam: Yeah. Addison: Your face is everywhere. Body language... Sam: Yeah, I had a few thoughts so I wrote them down and... Addison: And now you're the common man's medical guru. (Violet walks up to the desk) Violet: Hi Dell. Can you push my appointments back an hour? I had to rescue Cooper. Sam: This is Addison. Addison, this is our shrink. Violet: Violet, hi. Bye. Sam: What did Cooper do this time? Violet: What does Cooper always do. Naomi and Sam: A woman. Violet: I can't believe this. I'm his colleague, not his chauffeur. (She walks away) Addison: So, this is co-op medicine. Sam: Yeah, doctors working together. It's me, Naomi, we have a pediatrician, a shrink, an alternative medicine practitioner... Naomi: Could you excuse us for just a minute? Sam: Sure I can. Good morning, Naomi. Naomi: Shut up. Addison: So, you two still work together. Naomi: Hey Pete. (Pete walks over to Sam) Pete: Who is that red head with your ex-wife? She's hot, possibly insane, but hot. Sam: Don't even think about it. (Addison and Naomi enter an office) Addison: You work with your ex-husband in a shrine for your ex-husband. Naomi: It's actually a good book. And we're friends. We stayed friends even after we got divorced. It's very healthy. We're healthy. Addison: What happened between you and Sam? Naomi: Addison, you and I were close in med school. It was a long time ago. Addison: Oh, Naomi, come on. You can't stay mad at me forever. I know you. Naomi: You got fat. Addison: I did not. Naomi: Your hair looks hideous. Addison: It does not. Naomi: And you're getting really, really ugly. Addison: Aww. I've missed you too. Naomi: So...why are you really here? Addison: You're a fertility specialist, one of the best. Naomi: You wanna have a baby? Addison: I wanna have a baby. (The clinic at SGH, Bailey finds Susan in the clinic hiccupping.) Bailey: Susan Grey. You sure you're in the right place? Susan: I have reflux...acid reflux. And the...hiccups come and go when it gets really bad. They stopped a few times but lately it's been getting worse. Bailey: Have you had chlorpromazine? Here you go. Thank you. Susan: Isn't that the crazy person's drug? Bailey: It's used as an anti-psychotic but it's also helpful with hiccups. If we don't stop these soon you will be a crazy person. Ok. Susan: Hey, how is Meredith doing? I know they have that big intern exam coming up and she's been really busy. I tried to call but...hey, no hiccups. Bailey: Chlorpromazine. (Addison is at the Oceanside wellness center on an exam table) Addison: I'm getting any younger, you know, and I always planned to have one. It's just...well, now; clearly a man is not in the cards for me. I mean this is Addison, post McDreamy, post McSteamy and I just have to... Naomi: Mc what? Addison: Forget it. You know what, lets never Mc anything. A baby, that is my answer. Find a sperm donor, have a baby. My new dream...a baby. Naomi: A baby's not really an answer it's more of a crying, puking non-answer. Addison: Yeah, but you did it. Naomi: With a husband. Addison: Yeah but you did it. You got married; you had a baby. You're my example. Naomi: Ok, we should check your FSH and your estrodial levels and we should probably do an antro-folical count. Addison: Holy crap. I'm gonna have a baby. (Sam is checking out a patient) Sam: Treadmill, huh? Kathy: Yeah Sam: Ok. What's going on? Kathy: I tried to take it up to 10 and do the hilly terrain mode, which you can do but only if you're an Olympian, so I paused and I went flying off... Sam: No, I mean, what's going on with you pushing yourself this hard? This is your fourth sports injury in three months. Kathy: I am a sexual person. I'm a normal sexual person. I like sex. I need sex. And he won't do it. He won't have sex with me. He just... won't. Sam: I'm hoping you're talking about your husband. Well, I'm not hoping because of the no sex part. Kathy: It's been 18 months. Sam: Wow. Kathy: 18 months! Do you have any idea what that is like? My husband won't do it. So you know what I do? Sam: Uh, you run. Kathy: I run. I run so I won't sleep with someone else. I run so I have someplace to channel my energies. I run so I won't pick up a tire iron and bat my husband to death. I need sex! You'd do it with me, right? Sam: Hmm? I think you need to spend some time with our therapist. (Violet is picking up Cooper) Cooper: Hey! Hey. Thanks for the ride. Hey, have you been crying? Violet: Where's your car? Cooper: Were you crying? Violet: Where's your car? Cooper: Were you crying? Violet: You wanna walk? Cooper: I met a girl at a bar... on the Internet... and she borrowed my car. Violet: Cooper, did you file a police report? Cooper: She might bring the car back. She was gorgeous and hot and she... Violet: Okay, Cooper, Cooper, Cooper. All right, so you meet a strange woman on the Internet again. You bring her back to your apartment to have sex with you again, and she steals from you again. What does that suggest to you about you? Cooper: That I'm an optimist. That I believe in magic. There there is a soul mate... out there waiting for me. Oh, Violet...Allen's not worth it. You deserve better. Violet: I know that. I do. I'm not... I'm not crying about him. I'm not. Don't look at me. Look over there. (Seattle scenes) (Izzie walks up to the nurse's station where Cristina and Meredith are.) Izzie: I switched my hours at the clinic so I can go to the bridal shop. Yay! Cristina: Did she cheer? She just cheered. Izzie: Someone's not being very bridey. Cristina: I am not a bride. I am a surgeon. Meredith: Don't tease the caged animal. Izzie: You're not excited? I'm excited. I love weddings. Weddings are all about hope and the future. (Callie walks up) Callie: Ok, I rescheduled an A.C.L. repair, but I wanna be clear. I will not be wearing pink or baby blue. I do not do flowers in my hair. And I will never be seen with a bow on my ass, ok? Cristina: See? She's got the right attitude. Thank you very much. Meredith: Hey. (Thatcher walks by) Thatcher: Hey. Hi. I...I'm here with Susan. She's down in the clinic. Meredith: The clinic? Is everything ok? Thatcher: Yeah. Izzie: Callie's a bridesmaid? Cristina: Yeah. Izzie: Yeah, ca...yes, of course. Callie's a bridesmaid. Fun. Yeah. Callie: Yeah. (Alex is walking through the hall with Jane Doe) Alex: You gotta do it. That kid of yours is gonna need you on your feet. Jane Doe: She's cute, huh? She's a cute shriveled kid. Alex: She's cute. Come on. Let's keep walking. Jane Doe: So... where is she? Red...I thought that was on. Alex: Walk. Jane Doe: Gossip Alex: Oh, you called it. She was too serious about the whole thing. Jane Doe: And Alex is a rolling stone. Alex: I was being thoughtful. Jane Doe: Yeah, right. And dumping red after one night is sensitive? So did she just take off? What'd you say to her? Did she cry? (Addison is in Sam's office. She keeps slapping him on top of his head.) Sam: Ow. Addison: Idiot. You divorced Naomi? Sam: Look, just mind your own business, ok...ouch. Addison: Moron. She is my best friend. Sam: Stop hitting me on top of my head. Addison: Did you cheat? Did... Sam: Ok, two things I learned way back in kindergarten...one, keep your hands to yourself, two, he who smelt it dealt it. Addison: That makes no sense. Sam: Yeah. Well...you cheated. You cheated on your husband with his best friend. There. Smelt it, dealt it...it works. Addison: You're using fart logic. Sam: Hey, if you want details, go see Naomi. Addison: She won't talk about it. Sam: Well, then you get no details. Addison: I'm on her side. You know that. Sam: That's why you get no details. Addison: Oh, details! Sam: Woman, be quiet. Addison: I've missed you. Sam: Yeah, well, you know, Naomi's known you longer, so she gets custody of you in the divorce. Addison: Yeah. (Addison and Naomi are in her office) Addison: So, uh, other than project baby, this is strictly a vacation. I am here to read trashy novels and go to the beach. Naomi: Ok, nobody over 30 goes to the beach. You should stay here at the practice, hang out. See how we work. It's more fun than a stuffy hospital and we have an empty office. Addison: Naomi, are you trying to lure me? Naomi: Look, maybe. We do have sunshine and cute boys. Addison: Yeah, speaking of which, cute boy behind the desk is tracking you with his eyes. Naomi: No, he's not. Addison: Oh, cute boy wants Naomi. Naomi: okay, maybe you should shut up... and go get some coffee or something... please. (Addison walks off and Naomi walks over to Dell) Naomi: You have to stop that. Dell: Stop what? Naomi: You cannot watch me like that. It's...not something you can do. I won't allow it. Dell: You can't make rules about my eyes. (Screaming can be heard from another room) Woman: That's enough! Man: No! Naomi: Did you hear that? (Naomi and the other doctors exits their offices and head toward the sound of the yelling) Sam: Did you hear that? Pete: What was that? Violet: Did I just hear? Man: I'm the father of that child! Man 2: No, I'm the father! Carol: If it's anybody's baby, it's mine! Cooper: Stop it! Calm down, everybody! Just...hey, hey, hey, hey! A little help here. A little help. Violet: Oh, my god, Cooper! Cooper! Carol: Oh, Dr. Freedman! Oh, god! Oh, that's great. Really great. Pete: You gotta be kidding me. (Meredith is in the clinic with Susan and Thatcher) Meredith: You could've called. Susan: Oh, it's such a silly problem. Hiccups? Thatcher: We didn't want to bother you. Meredith: Well, it's not silly if you can't sleep. Bailey: Chlorpromazine is good, but it doesn't always work long-term. We've had some good result with endoscopic gastroplication. Meredith: We put a tube down your throat and sew together the bottom of your esophagus to protect it from the acid in your stomach. It would be an outpatient procedure. Susan: I'm sold. Ready when you are. Thatcher: You're sure that that's not... Susan: Just think of it like breathing into a very expensive brown paper bag. Naomi: Ok, let me see if I can explain this to everyone. So Carol was married to Rick. Carol is now married to Doug. Keith is Lisa's husband. Keith: Uh, I'm Rick's husband. Carol: Life partner. Rick: You're just mad I left you for a man. Jim: I'm Lisa's husband. Naomi: And Lisa is the Carol: Surrogate carrying my child. Rick: Our child. Jim: You are not the father! You don't know that, Rick! I am so sick of you! Violet: Hey, hey! Okay, okay. Let's all try to remember that we are in a place of healing. Uh, Lisa...h-how are you feeling? Carol: Guilty. Guilty is how she is feeling. Violet: Wh-why is that, Lisa? Carol: Because the same week that I brought her here to be inseminated, she had sex with him...and him...and him. And we have no idea who the father is. Yeah, she, um, really gets around. (Conference room) Pete: Okay, how does this happen? How do you pick a super freak for a surrogate? Violet: I-I screened her. There was nothing thereto indicate she was... Cooper: Sex crazed? Insatiable? Violet: Cooper-like? Naomi: Ooh. Okay. The point is, everybody's flipping out over nothing. Medically, it has to be Rick's baby. We implanted Lisa with a fertilized embryo from Carol's egg and Rick's sperm. Cooper: Then Rick implanted some more of his own for good measure. Violet: Before he decided he was gay. Pete: I've treated Doug. I have him on valerian root for anxiety and stress. And I knew he was fooling around, but with his new wife's surrogate? Addison: Can I just, uh...I think the more pressing issue, uh, here, is that, uh, Lisa's had no prenatal care. She took off right after her,uh Cooper: Sex-a-thon? Hi. We haven't officially met. Cooper. Pediatrics. Addison: Hi. Uh, yeah, she...left town, and, uh, she and the baby need a complete workup. Um, who's your usual G.Y.N? Sam: Uh, she left the practice rather suddenly. Pete: I didn't do anything. Addison: Well, look, I would be happy to examine her. Trashy novels can wait. Cooper: Have you ever thought of... plying your trade in sunnier climes, Addison? Violet: "Sunnier climes"? Now we see why he has to type to pick up women. Cooper: Hey! Sam: Besides, we have a very strict no consorting rule here now. Pete: I didn't do anything. (Susan's OR) George: I can't wait to tell Meredith her step-mom hiccupped through the whole thing. She should be here for this. Bailey: Susan asked her to be with her father. She said he's having a lot of anxiety. George: And...Meredith is supposed to help with that? (Meredith in Thatcher are in the waiting room) Meredith: You know there's nothing to worry about. Thatcher: What I...what I worry about is Molly living in a new city alone with a baby most of the day. That's hard. And Lexie, who's...about to start her residency. She's a really good student, but it's grueling. Meredith: I know. Thatcher: You know. Right. And...I worry about you, too. How you're getting on, your mom...none of that was...simple. Meredith: Susan's really on you to talk to me, huh? Thatcher: I got to admit, I'm envious...that she's getting to know you, and I'm not yet. I think she may be faking these hiccups. Meredith: To get...us in the same place? (Violet's office) Paul: I guess I'm just not very sexual. Kathy: He's having an affair. He's not in love with me anymore. Paul: That's not true, honey. I love you. I love you so much. I...I want to do it. I just want to want to do it. Violet: Ok, Paul, I'm gonna give you some homework for next session. Paul: Homework? Violet: Have sex with your wife. Kathy: Yay! Paul: Well, but... Violet: No matter what. Whether you're in the mood or not, have sex. Do it in the bed, do it on the kitchen floor. Do you have a pool? Paul: Yes. Violet: Okay, do it in the pool. Have sex. No pressure, no judgment, no expectations. Have sex. Just...do it. (Sam and Pete are outside walking) Pete: We do need a new G.Y.N. Sam: Right. Pete: And Addison seems... Sam: Oh. Nun-unh. No. Absolutely not. Pete: What? Sam: Addison is a nice person. She is a decent person. She is a person. Pete: I'm lookin' for a person. Sam: Man, you're just looking. Pete: At least I'm trying. (Woman walks up) Woman: Dr. Feelgood. Hey. I love you. Sam: Hi. Thank you. Pete: Okay, Dr. Feelgood, this is what I'm saying. Your career is taking off, girls like that are throwing themselves at you. - You should be celebrating. Sam: Celebrating? I just got a divorce. Pete: You got a little tiny dog, and you cook it chicken, and you talk to it. That's not normal. Sam: Hey, easy. All right? I'm alone because I choose to be. It's...it's a choice. Pete: So you're saying that you're not interested in Addison, but I can't have her. Sam: See, Addison isn't the type of woman you have. She's a marriage woman. All right? She's gonna want a commitment, and you... Pete: Hey, I do not sleep around. No. You are a serial monogamist, all right? You...you date a girl, you romance a girl, and then when it's time to commit...you cut and you run. Pete: I do not. Sam: Linda, uh, Karen, uh, Julie. Then there was Tricia, Amy, Carrie, the other Linda...we can't forget... Pete: Fine. I won't ask her out. Sam: Good boy. That's a good boy. (Exam room) Naomi: And the week before I implanted the embryo, you slept with how many, three? Three men. Addison: We're almost done here, Lisa, and then we'll do the amniocentesis. Lisa: You're on carol's side. Naomi: I'm carol's doctor. You came to us. You applied to be a surrogate. It was your choice. Lisa: I know. I just...I was about to hand my body over to a baby that's not mine for nine months, which is a big responsibility. That...ht me...the responsibility...and I just... they all wanted me. Me. And f-for once, I just stopped thinking and I just...I did something wild. Dr. Montgomery, is something wrong? Addison: I'm gonna run some more tests. (Meredith is walking Susan and Thatcher out) Meredith: You promise me you'll take it easy. Susan: I have a stack of DVDs to watch, and I expect your father to feed me by hand. Meredith: So just call if you have any questions. Thatcher: It was nice t-talking with you. Meredith: Bye. Susan: Bye. Thatcher: Bye-bye. (George enters the elevator where Izzie is) Izzie: Any news about Mercy West? George: Uh, there's a spot. There's a lot of takers, but they said it looks good. Izzie: So after the intern exam... George: I'm not an unfaithful guy. I'm not a cheater. Izzie: You think it'll happen again if you stay here... George: No. I don't know. Izzie: With me? George. George: I have to go. (Hallway at Oceanside wellness) Violet: Sam. Sam: Yeah. Violet: So Paul and Kathy, I gave them an assignment. I told 'em to do it. He didn't rise to the occasion. Sam: Nothing? No wood. Violet: Not even a twig. There's gotta be something physical going on, right? Because the only other option...that he just doesn't love her anymore...I mean, that's just... Cooper: Not the only option. I mean, did they meet in the drama department in college? Sam: Could be a thyroid thing, anemia. Could be a bunch of stuff. Cooper: Have you checked for extreme ugliness? Violet: Okay, not funny. Will you get back to me... Sam: Yes, I will. Violet: With what you find soon? Sam: Okay. Yes. Violet: And, Cooper, you know what? Ugly people have sex, Cooper. Cooper: Ew. Violet: Ugly people are people, too. (Addison is in the elevator, talking to herself) Addison: Okay. Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? (Mark walks up to Alex at a nurse's station) Mark: You fill out this E.E.G. request on Ava? Alex: Yeah, you asked for it. Mark: I asked you to run labs on her every other day. What the hell is this? Alex: Shepherd's doing a full neuro workup. Just get the hell of my... Mark: Go ahead. I would love to have an excuse to lay you out. Alex: I didn't do anything. Mark: Whatever you didn't do sent Addison running for the hills. (Seattle scenes) (Addison is at Naomi's house) Addison: Okay, this guy is 6'2",dark hair, green eyes, totally healthy. He plays the violin, and he's a physicist. That is good sperm. Geeky, but, uh, good. Naomi: Lisa has extra donors if you want to borrow one. Her tests come in yet? Addison: No, tomorrow. I don't want to ring any alarm bells till we're sure. Addison: What about this guy? He's a marine biologist. Good hair. Naomi: Are you sure you want to do this? Your life is really gonna change. Addison: That's why I'm doing this. I want my life to change. I need...my life to change. I mean, look, you have Maya. You're family. You did everything the way you were supposed to. You didn't wait. Naomi: Maybe I should have. Waited. Addison: What do you mean? Naomi: Addison, I did everything exactly the way I was supposed to. After college, I never dated anybody but Sam, because he was the one. I never had sex with anybody but Sam because cheating is wrong. I had a baby because...that's what you do when you get married. I never made a single mistake. I did everything right. And then Sam comes home and says he wants a divorce. So all those photos you're...busy admiring, all they are, are reminders of all the stuff I didn't do. I'm 38 years old, and I don't know how to have fun. That's not lucky. That's sad. So just... shut up about lucky! Addison: Poor...sad...dried up Naomi. Naomi: Shut up. Addison: Poor little, special talented doctor girl. Let's make a made-for-TV movie...about the poor little, dried up special girl who has no fun. Naomi: I could put you out. You'd have to sleep in the car. I just...I just wish I'd been a little more like you. Addison: What, an adulterous bitch who forgot to have kids? (Violet is at the grocery store) Allen: Violet? Violet: Allen. Allen: Hey! Violet: Great to see you. Allen: How you doing? Violet: I'm great. Really. I'm really wonderful. Allen: Well, I saw you and I...I didn't want to be rude. So I hope it's okay. Violet: You know, it's just... it's really wonderful to see you. You look, uh... you look really wonderful. (Woman walks up) Cami: They didn't have the gouda you like, but they had a camembert...hi. Violet: Hi. Allen: This is Violet. Cami: Violet...oh, Violet. Hi. Nice to meet you. I...I'm Cami. Violet: Okay. Cami: Allen's wife. God, I still can't get used to that word...wife. Allen: Yeah. Violet: Wife? How long have you been married? Cami: Newlyweds...eight weeks. Violet: Oh, congratulations. Congratulations. Cami: Nice to meet you. (LA scenes) (Oceanside's kitchen) Cooper: Hey, Addison, uh, latte? Or...more of a cappuccino. Addison: Lisa's baby has something called placenta accreta. Violet: Is that bad? Addison: The placenta abnormally attaches to the uterine wall. It makes delivering dangerous for both mom and baby. But there was something else. Cooper: That's not enough? Addison: The baby has some genetic markers that don't match Carol, just Lisa. Naomi: What? The embryo... Addison: Did not implant. Naomi: This is Lisa's baby? Addison: Which also means that the paternity is once again up for grabs. Good luck. I'm off to the beach. Cooper: Uh, you can't leave. Someone has to tell the patient. Honestly, I have...I have...low people skills with anybody over 12. Violet: It...it's true. An internet hooker just stole his car... Cooper: Violet! Privacy. She was not...she just...she borrowed my car. She...she borrowed it. Borrowed. (Cooper, Pete and Sam are at the impound lot) Cooper: 911 turbo, hand-sewn leather seats. 911 turbo with hand-sewn leather seats. Who does that to a 911? Pete: A chick. A crazy chick. Cooper: But she was so hot. Pete: A crazy hot chick. Sam: I loved that car. That was a single man's car. Cooper: That's the point. I mean, I...I thought maybe I was done being single. I thought she was gonna be the mother of my children. Sam: What was her name again? Cooper: Sexyboobs316. Pete: Are you...dude, are you crying? Cooper: No. Sam: You better be crying about that car and not over sexyboobs315. Cooper: 316. 316. Pete: I can't. I...I can't. I'm gonna hurt him. Sam: Let's just say he's crying over the car and the woman. All right? There we go. Let it out. Let it out. (Seattle scenes) (Burke enters a bridal shop where Cristina is wearing a wedding dress and Meredith, Callie and Izzie are wearing bridesmaids gowns) Burke: Uh, Cristina? Helen: That's a pretty one. Jane: Moves very well in it. Looks quite natural. Burke: You paged? Cristina: I need you over here. Burke: Should I be seeing you in the dress before the wedding? Cristina: You think I'm wearing this? Burke: Well, it is very feminine. Cristina: Exactly. Do you know your mother booked a chapel that sits 200 people? Okay, how did I get bridesmaids, huh? Freakin' stupid cotton-candy colored bridesmaids? No offense. What happened to our small ceremony? What happened to you and me at city hall? Burke: I didn't...I didn't think you were serious. Callie: I am not wearing this. Meredith: Oh, I gotta get to the hospital. Callie: You know, we should, uh, give 'em some privacy. Izzie: What? Oh! Oh, you want me to go over there with you... by myself. Callie: Yeah. Izzie: Ok. Callie: Ok. Cristina: You want a big wedding? You want the chapel, you want the guests and me in a white dress? Burke: Well... yes. I'm a traditional man, Cristina. Cristina: Are you kidding me? Burke: No. Jane: The saleslady has another batch of dresses for you to see, Cristina. Cristina: Oh, thank you... mama. (Cristina walks away) Jane: Cristina has certainly made quite an effort. Tried on, I would say, over a hundred dresses, and that certainly could not have been easy for her. Burke: Yeah, mama, I know she seems disinterested in wedding planning. But Cristina...she's not cold. I know she seems cold Jane: Preston... if you think Cristina is right for you, I trust you. I trust your instincts. (Conference room at Oceanside) Carol: And the baby...the, um, the baby isn't even mine? Doug: Honey, calm down. Carol: Calm down? Lisa: You mean I can keep this baby if I want to? Violet: Uh, legally, yes. Rick: So who's the father? Cooper: We won't know the paternity of the baby till after Lisa delivers. Addison: More urgent at the moment is the placenta accreta. The fact is, Lisa is at risk of having a life-thr*at hemorrhage and the baby could deliver pre-term. Jim: So you're saying they could die? Addison: There is a risk of death, yes. Lisa, I know you're scared. If you do go into pre-term labor, you'll have a c-section. And they'll monitor it and control it so that they have a better chance of saving your uterus and your life. Lisa: And you'll save us, me and the baby? Addison: Well, I have... I have to get back to Seattle. I have a practice. But I can refer you to someone local who... Lisa: No, I want you. You be there. (Sam's office) Sam: I thought Kathy was coming to the appointment today. Paul: Just...Kathy didn't come home last night. And, you know, I don't blame her, but it's just...what...what if she's with some guy right now? Some guy...some...some guy who can...who can bring it? Sam: Okay. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's okay. All right? There are plenty of medical reasons for low sex drive. All right? Paul: Sorry. Sorry. (Kathy enters) Paul: Honey...where were you? Kathy: I was out. All night? And I had a chance to cheat, believe me. But I passed. Okay? I passed up being with someone who actually wants to be with me because I am stuck with you. You're crying? Sam: Okay, let's...let's all just calm down here. Kathy: All right...I'll be in the waiting room. Paul: Oh! She's starting to hate me. What am I gonna do if little Paul can't perform? Sam: Okay. Don't talk about your penis while you hug another man. Paul: I'm sorry, man. Sam: It's okay. Paul: I'm sorry. Sam: Let's draw some blood. Paul: Okay, let's draw some blood. (Mark walks up to the desk where Derek is) Mark: What's in L.A.? Derek: What? Mark: For Addison. Any idea...what she might be doing there? Derek: Naomi and Sam are down there, I guess. I don't know. You all right? Mark: We were gonna try. We were gonna make a go of it... as a couple. She bet me I couldn't go 60 days without having sex. Derek: Oh. Let me guess. You couldn't do it. Mark: No, she couldn't. She didn't want to be with me. I thought she did. I thought she might. But she didn't. And I caught her. You know... Derek: Sleeping with somebody else? Oh, that must have been so hard for you. Not that I can't relate. Mark: So I told her I did it. Derek: You told her you did it? Mark: I told her I lost the bet. I told her I slept with someone. I figured if she didn't want to be with me, she shouldn't have to feel guilty about it. Derek: Selfless. That's...out of character. Mark: Yeah. Anyway, uh... I was just wondering if you knew what was in L.A. Derek: No. (Addison is in Naomi's office) Addison: Okay, now I am going to the beach. Naomi: Wait, Addie. Your test results came back in. Addison: I think I'm gonna go with physicist guy. Naomi: Your F.S.H. Level is high. Well, they're high this month. We can do, uh, ovarian stimulation. Naomi: And your antral follicle count is only two. Addison: That could be due to stress. Naomi: Addison, I'm sorry. I did all the tests. There's no fertility potential here. Addison: Okay. Uh... this is good. This is, um... oh, this is just... perfect. Naomi: Addison... Addison: I have the great guy. I don't have a baby because I'm focusing on my career. And then I have the other guy. I don't have his baby because he's not the great guy. And now I don't have the great guy or the other guy, and I'm finally ready to have a baby, and I can't. That is so... exactly what my life is. Exactly what my life is. Naomi: I'm so sorry. I know how much you wanted this. Addison: It's okay. I just, um... I just didn't realize I was out of time, that's all. Naomi: Addie, please stay so we can... Addison: No, it's okay. I'm fine. Thank you... for telling me. Thank you. I will see you at home. (Addison enters the elevator) Voice: Looks like you had a bad day. Addison: Okay... enough. Okay? Not today. This is not a good day. All right? So why don't you just... shut up? Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! All right, then.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x22 - The Other Side of this Life Pt.1"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x23: The Other Side of This Life (Part 2) Original Airdate: 5/3/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Michael Grossman (LA Scenes) (Addison and Naomi are sitting in the waiting room of Oceanside wellness) Addison: I just never thought about it. What I would do, you know? What the dream would be if I couldn't have my dream. Naomi: Empty office. Addison: Okay, what are we doing? I thought we were going to lunch. Why are we still sitting here? Naomi: We're doing what I do when I get depressed. Just wait. What time do you have? Addison: It's 5 to 1:00. You know what? I'm glad I can't have a child. With my luck, I'd probably have a kid with two heads. It...it's actually better. I'm grateful. I don't have to think about it. The option is...off the table. (Violet walks up) Violet: What time do you have? Naomi: 5 to 1:00. Addison: You people are obsessed with time. Violet: Here he comes. (Dell walks by in only a pair of shorts with his surf board) Naomi: Hi, Dell. Violet: Have a nice... surf. Dell: I'll see you guys after lunch? Addison: You two should be ashamed of yourselves. Naomi: Admit it. You feel better. Violet: And if not, there's another showing in an hour, and it's wet. (Seattle scenes) (Jane Doe's room) Jane Doe: My brain is bleeding? How could my brain have been bleeding since the accident? Derek: Well, it could be from the trauma, but it also could be from one of your surgeries. Jane Doe: Dr. Shepherd, I've been living in this hospital long enough to know when there's something one of you isn't saying. Derek: Because of the location of the bleed, you need to be awake during surgery. You'll be sedated, alert, but, but it can be a really dangerous process. There's a lot about the brain we don't know. Jane Doe: So... I could potentially get my memory back? Derek: Mm. It's possible. Amnesia can be a symptom, but I think it's a long sht. I'll do some brain mapping and see if anything happens, but... Jane Doe: But I could. get my memory back? (Meredith enters the room where Bailey, Thatcher and Susan are) Meredith: You're back? What happened? Bailey: She's got a fever, and I think I hear a small murmur. Thatcher: A heart murmur? Susan: Don't be dramatic. At least it's not the hiccups. Bailey: Could be complications from the endoscopy. Meredith: Bacterial endocarditis? Bailey: You'll have to get tests, and if they come back positive, you'll be admitted for I.V. Antibiotics. Meredith: ...which should knock it right out. Susan: See? I told you. Don't be dramatic. (Alex catches up to Jane Doe who is in the hall walking) Alex: Hey, hey. You're supposed to wait for me. Jane Doe: I'm going crazy just sitting there. Alex: Hey, look, I'd be freaked out, too, if somebody was about to open up my head, but Dr. Shepherd, he's the best. Jane Doe: I can't hold my baby, right? She's...she's in that incubator. And so the nurses told me to talk to her. And I try. Guess what. Right now, I have nothing to say. You know, I don't even remember what it feels like to be outside, to have the wind in my face or rain or...I know the surgery is dangerous, but...I'm not freaked. I can't wait. Alex: Well, there's no guarantee the surgery's gonna bring back your memory. Jane Doe: But there's a chance. It's better than nothing. (Sam and Violet are walking through the hall) Sam: Good news. Uh, Paul's lack of sex drive comes from a hormone imbalance. Violet: So Paul still likes sex? Sam: Yeah, well, he's a guy and he's not dad, so I'm guessing yeah. He just...he just can't do anything about it. Violet: And that's good news? Sam: The bad news is that there could be many causes to this imbalance, some more serious than others. So final diagnosis and treatment could be a lengthy process. We're gonna have to run more tests. Violet: So it might be a while before Paul can help Kathy...take the edge off. Sam: Tell her to try swimming. It's easier on the knees. (Addison enters Pete's office) Addison: So...you're the quack. Pete: Uh, I went to med school. I'm also a licensed herbalist, and I spent five years in china learning alternative medicine. Addison: Like I said... quack. Pete: Come here. Unless you need to go tell someone you saw goody Johnson with the devil. Addison: Okay. Pete: Lie down on the table. Addison: Why? Pete: I wanna show you that I'm not a quack. Addison: I'm not taking my clothes off. Pete: Did I ask you to take your clothes off? N ow...you carry a lot of tension in your shoulders and above your right eye. Addison: What do you mean? Pete: You're blocking some serious emotion. Hang on. Addison: What...what are you doing? Pete: Stop saying "ow." It doesn't hurt. Okay, I'm done. Addison: Wait, wait, wait, wait. Where are you going? You can't leave me here like this. Pete: Lie there. Don't move. Breathe. You're going to experience a rush of emotion, a release of...psychic pain. Addison: Hello? Hello? I don't feel anything...except stupid for...letting a cute hippie boy put needles in my face. Hello! Yeah, Pete...I...this isn't working. I don't have any...psychic pain. I... I'm great. Barren, but...fan-freakin'-tastic. You can come back now. I am not feeling any, you know, rush of emotion or anything. I don't feel... anything. I don't feel anything at all. I don't feel anything at all. I hate L.A. (Derek sits on a bench outside with Meredith) Derek: Hey. Meredith: Hey. Derek: I heard Susan was back. Is everything okay? Meredith: Oh, an infection. She'll be fine. Derek: Oh, good, 'cause I figured if anything was wrong, you'd tell me. Meredith: If it was serious, I would, in a very "letting you in" sort of way. You know, it's weird. Derek: What? Meredith: My father...we're almost talking. Derek: Really? Meredith: How's the trailer? Derek: It's freezing. Y ou want to eat later? I'll bring something over. Meredith: Are you using me for central heating? Derek: Among other things. Meredith: Okay. Derek: All right. (Lisa and Jim enter the clinic) Dell: Lisa? Lisa: I think something is wrong. Jim: She's in pain. Addison: Lisa? Lisa: Addison, something is not right. Oh, my god. I think I just wet my pants. Addison: No, your water broke. She's in labor, and it's coming fast. Naomi: I'll call an ambulance. Uh, go get Cooper. Addison: And let the hospital know we're coming and call the chief. I don't want any problems when I try to scrub in. (The ambulance arrives at the hospital) Addison: Breathe Lisa: I need to push! Addison: Don't push. Get her into labor and delivery right away. Jim, check her in. Carol: Lisa! Is she okay? Are they okay? Keith: What happened? It's too early. Rick: She's not due for another month. Addison: Well, I'm guessing that the stress of you all fighting and crowding her, declaring yourselves the father didn't help. Move! (Violet's office) Violet: Any word on Lisa and the baby? Pete: We're still waiting. Violet: Therapy sucks. Pete: Said the shrink. Violet: No, I mean my particular brand of therapy might actually be...full of crap. People talking about their problems endlessly, telling people to think positively, visualize their destiny. Pete: It doesn't work? Violet: I think positively. I visualize my destiny. And look, just look. Pete: What am I lookin' at? Violet: Me...my pathetic, miserable existence. He left six months ago. He was a loser! Do you know he peed a little bit every time he coughed? Like an incontinent old woman. He smelled like pee. And there I was, in the car, crying, and I'm a serious feminist. Not to mention, my no-sex couple? Turns out it was a hormone thing. It's physical. In the old days we would've talked and talked and talked as Paul got sicker and sicker. My profession's becoming irrelevant. Maybe it's a good thing. Pete: People should just tell the truth to the people in their lives. Violet: They can't. If they could, we'd all be healthy. Pete: Like me. Violet: You're not healthy. You're in denial. Pete: I am not in denial. Violet: You're in denial, and you're angry. You're the angriest man I know. Pete: Is that why you won't sleep with me? Violet: You're in denial, you're angry, and you use sex as wapon to deflect it. Pete: Oh. (Jane Doe's OR) Derek: Now stimulating area 11. Alex: Ava, can you name this object? Jane Doe: Flowers, pink and blue. Derek: Avoiding area 11. Moving superiorly. This will be area 12. Jane Doe: Una cara con los ojos azules y el pelo rubio. Alex: Was that Spanish? Jane Doe: Was it? Derek: Okay, I'm going on to 13. Jane Doe: Il maison avec des galets rouge. Alex: All right. Now you're just showing off. Derek: Each language is stored in a different area of the brain. And as I stimulate them...this will be 14. Alex: So this isn't from the surgery? She actually speaks Spanish and French? Jane Doe: Alex...das ist noch das haus. Alex: And German? Derek: She's hypoventilating. Let's put her under and work on the bleed. Alex: Can't we keep going just a few more minutes? Maybe she can get her memory back along with the languages. Derek: If we don't control this bleed, she'll lose a lot more than her memory. She'll die. (Lisa's OR) Lisa: Why is this happening so fast? Nurse: Uh, doctors? Addison: Cooper, she's crowning. Cooper: All right, just don't push, Lisa. Lisa: Oh, push? Okay. Addison: No! No, don't push, Lisa. The cord's wrapped around the baby's neck. Lisa: Oh, I'm sorry! I can't help it! God! Oh! Cooper: I'll hold her. You clamp and cut. Addison: Okay. Cooper: Is she okay? Addison: Hang 20 of oxytocin. 8 French suction catheter. Lisa: Why isn't she crying? Addison: Dr. Freedman's gonna be working on her. We need to focus on your right now, Lisa. Fortunately, you're not bleeding that much, so we should be able to remove the placenta by... Lisa: By...by what? By what? Addison: Put her under, now. Cooper: What's going on? Addison: Her uterus must have ruptured because of the placenta accreta. We have to open her up. Lisa: No, no, no, no, no. The baby's not crying. Nurse: B.P.'S 58 over 32. Lisa: Don't put me under till the baby cries. Addison: We don't have time, Lisa. We have to put you under right now. Cooper: Go, Addison. Lisa: Okay. Addison: Hang two units of b-positive and make sure we have plenty on standby. She's gonna exsanguinate if we don't move quickly,people.10-blade . (Addison goes outside to where the others are waiting) Addison: Lisa lost a lot of blood, we had to put the baby on oxygen, but they are both sab. Doug: Who's the father? Jim: What? Rick: You said you sent off for the paternity test. Which one of us is the father? Carol: Did Lisa say anything, her decision about the baby? Addison: Lisa lost a lot of blood, we had to put the baby on oxygen, but they are both sab. I say it again because it seems like you didn't hear me the first time. They almost died. Lisa almost died. And so I didn't have time, what, with, um, trying to save her life, to pause and check on the paternity test or ask her about the baby's future. What is wrong with you people? Carol: Can...can we see the baby? Addison: No. None of you go near Lisa or the baby until I say so. The child is not a possession that you fight over. And by the way, not that you asked, it's a girl...6 pounds, 9 ounces. (Jane Doe's room) Jane Doe: I don't remember. Alex: Hey. We got it, the bleed. You're gonna be fine. By the way, uh, you rocked that surgery. You spoke three languages. Jane Doe: I don't remember anything. Alex: The surgery was sup... Jane Doe: I th...thought I would...what am I gonna do? What if... what if I never remember anything? (The clinic, George is laying on a gurney) Bailey: You sick, O'Malley? You feel fine. Take an aspirin and get off my clean bed. George: You been married a long time, right? Bailey: O'Malley, I do not have time to answer... George: Did you have doubts...about your marriage? I don't mean, uh, insecurities. I mean really serious doubts. Nurse: Dr. Bailey, I need you to sign this before I can discharge bed ten. Bailey: No. He's supposed to get an I.V. Dose before discharge. Why don't people listen? (Susan's room) Susan: Someday you'll have to explain to me how antibiotics actually work. They are miraculous. Richard: Good afternoon. Uh, Dr. Bailey asked me to look in. Everything looks good. We are going to take you to radiology to get a central line to continue your I.V. Antibiotics outpatient. Susan: Okay. Hey, will you show your dad the cafeteria? Meredith: Sure. We're on to you, you know? Susan: What? (The clinic, Burke is hiding behind a curtain) Burke: Dr. Bailey. I was...looking for some privacy, and, uh, I didn't think anyone would come looking for me down here. I apologize. Bailey: No problem. Take your time. Burke: Uh, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Yeah. Burke: Um, you've been married a long time now, right? Do you think it matters if one person...is...is more ready? Bailey: O'Malley! George: Yeah. Bailey: Come here. George: Yes. Hi, Dr. Burke. Bailey: I want the two of you to talk to each other. I want you to talk to each other and leave my marriage out of it. I also want you to leave my clinic out of it. And by that, I mean get out. I need the space, I need the peace, I need the quiet, and I need it now. George: Sorry. Burke: Yeah, right, sorry. (The kitchen at Oceanside wellness) Violet: Cooper, you're blocking the caffeine. Naomi: He's blocking the caffeine. Violet: Cooper, if you move, I'll give you a cookie. Naomi: Hey, did something go wrong with Lisa's surgery? Cooper: No, uh, we handled it. Addison...she is, pretty excellent. She's pretty excellent. Violet: Okay, only because you've sighed twice...what's the matter, Cooper? Cooper: I don't go to hookers. I don't go to strip clubs. I meet women on the internet that want to meet me. So I like 'em a little younger and a little dirtier. Is that wrong? It's wrong? Naomi: You need to meet a grown-up. You need to date someone your own age. Violet: Someone without a prn internet name and...and perhaps no criminal past. Naomi: A nice girl. Violet: A viable girl. Naomi: Someone with whom you can have a relationship. Violet: You're a respected doctor. Naomi: Go out in the real world, meet a woman your own age and ask her out. Violet: Be a man, cooper. Be a man. (LA scenes) (Addison is in the stairway crying and Pete enters) Pete: There you are. I just stopped by to see how Lisa and the baby are doing. You okay? Addison: Yeah. I just...I...I had a little too much surgery today. But I'm...I'm good. Pete: You look good. You look... beautiful. Sam told me that I had to stay away from you because you're Naomi's friend, but... Addison: Stop it. Pete: What? Addison: You're flirting. Pete: What's wrong with flirting? Addison: What's wrong with it? What's wrong? What's wrong is that I don't have time for it. I am... out of time. I missed my chance. And now I have two eggs left. I might as well have no eggs left. I am egg-less. Naomi says that she's dried up? I'm the one who's dried up. I'm all barren and dried up. And I have clearly been wasting my time on men. I mean, I might as well take up hobbies, like needlepoint or, um, collecting those little ceramic dolls, you know? Because that's what dried up women do. They do needlepoint. They do not waste their time flirting with men who clearly just want to get laid. They do not waste their time...telling overly personal...information about their eggs to total strangers. Oh, my god. I'm sorry. What are you doing? Pete: I'm gonna kiss you. I'm gonna kiss you with tongue. I'm gonna kiss you so you feel it. Okay? Addison: Okay. (They kiss) Why'd you do that? Pete: To remind you...that you're not dried up. If you need me to remind you again...let me know. Addison: Okay. (Susan's room) Meredith: When did the cramping start? Susan: A little while ago. Thatcher: What is it? Is it... Meredith: Probably nothing serious. It could just be a reaction to the antibiotics. We may have to switch to another one, but it may mean another night here. Susan: It's okay, it's okay. Meredith: It's okay. (Addison walks into a hallway where Carol is) Carol: Wait. I know...I know that you think we're awful, and I think that we're awful. I just, um...I just wanted a baby so badly. I just wanted a baby. And I don't care who the father is, I don't care if the baby's mine. All that matters is the baby. Is...is she gonna be okay? Just tell me that she's gonna be okay. Addison: She's gonna be okay. Carol: Thank you. Addison: You're welcome. (George and Burke are in the hallway) Burke: I hear Callie's going to be a bridesmaid. George: Yeah. Burke: Would you, um, say that you were the one that needed more urging to get married? George: Oh, I hadn't...really been thinking about it. I...it just, uh, seemed like a good idea at the time. You and Cristina have been together for a while. Burke: You got married pretty fast. George: So in theory it's better to know someone pretty well. Way better than... Burke: Still, no guarantees. George: I...I don't...believe in divorce. Burke: Neither do I. George: Is it possible...do you think, to love two people...at the same time? Burke: I, uh...I'm still hoping it's possible just to love one person. (Callie walks up to Izzie in the hall) Callie: Hey. So, uh, it's not gonna be too weird, right? Me as a bridesmaid? Izzie: No, no, it's fine. Callie: Cause I can tell Cristina... Izzie: I said it's fine. Really, no worries. Callie: So, um...did George tell you he's thinking about transferring to mercy west? Izzie: Yeah. Sounds like a good idea. Callie: So we're fine? Izzie: Oh, we are. Fine. (Izzie leaves and Cristina walks up) Cristina: Hey, that last dress was ok, wasn't it? I mean, it was too tight and I couldn't breathe, but...a wedding's just one day, right? Callie: Yeah. Cristina: Yeah. (Sam's office) Sam: We got Paul's M.R.I. back, and I've consulted with Dr. Straley at Sloan-Kettering. We found a tumor on your adrenal gland. All right? It sits right on top of the kidney, and it's what's been causing your low sex drive. Kathy: So it wasn't me? He's got a condition. A...a tumor, that's not too...You can treat that, right? Sam: These tumors are usually aggressive and found late because the symptoms are so subtle. Paul: What is that mean? Sam: Treatment is difficult and risky, but there is hope. Kathy: Oh, my god, honey, I can't believe I yelled at you. I'm so sorry. Paul: It's all right, honey. It's okay. Kathy: No, I'm horrible. I'm so sorry. I love you so much. (Addison is talking to the elevator again) Addison: Hello? Hello? Are you there...Elevator god? It's me, Addison. Voice: What? Addison: Hi. Voice: Hi. Addison: Okay, look, you may be a figment of my imagination, or maybe I'm going completely insane, I don't know. Or maybe...this is payback for my crimes on some ginormous karmic level, I don't know. I just...I just want to tell you I'm sorry for yelling at you. Okay? Voice: Okay. Addison: Well...Bye. (Kathy and Violet are alone in her office) Kathy: I am such a screw-up...In my life. Up until now, I have been really great at one thing. I am great...at being Paul's wife. And I thought he didn't want me anymore. I thought...I was sure that he was in love with somebody else. Violet: Of course you were. Kathy: I lied to Paul. I was with a man that night that I didn't come home. I didn't even find him that attractive. I just told myself that I wasn't gonna settle for being alone, you know? Violet: Kathy, you were reacting to what was in front of you. There was no way you could know what was really going on. Kathy: What do I do now? Violet: You do what you're great at. You love your husband. Kathy: You're gonna have to tell me that a lot, okay? Violet: Okay. (Dell enters Naomi's office) Dell: Hey, everyone else is gone. I was heading out. Uh, unless...I was gonna get some food. You want something? Naomi: Oh...No. I...I ate. Thanks for asking. Dell: Another night? Naomi: Dell, are you... Dell: Asking you out on a date? Yes. Naomi: You can't ask me out. Dell: Yes, I can. Naomi: No, you can't. Dell: I asked. Naomi: You're...you're a fetus. You could be my fetus. Dell: Coo coo cachoo, Mrs. Robinson. Naomi: You can't use "the graduate" as a defense. You can't use a movie made before you were born as a defense. Dell: Go out with me. I like you, and you like me. Naomi: Dell. Dell: Yeah. Naomi: Never gonna happen. (Addison is at a bar with the other doctors) Addison: I'm starting to think L.A. is like New York, but with a beach. Pete: Why do you think we moved here? Sam: Uh, Pete. Uh, isn't it time for you to get some refills? Pete: Thanks. Sam: Thanks, buddy. Sam: Okay, Pete is my friend, don't get me wrong, but... Addison: Why are you warning me about him? What, is he like a serial kller? Is he a felon? Is he secretly my ex-husband's best friend? Sam: His wife died eight years ago. Addison: Now I feel shallow. Sam: No, it's just...He can't connect with women. He's a good man, but if you want someone who's gonna be there, then Pete's not that guy. (Violet and Cooper are at the bar) Cooper: This is nice, huh? Violet: It is. Cooper: Yeah. (He leans in for a kiss) Violet: No, no. Oh, no. Cooper: What? Violet: That's not nice. Cooper: Oh, you s...Hold it, hold it, hold on. You said, "be a man." Violet: Oh, Cooper, I commend you. You're making an effort. But I'm...I'm...but I'm your friend. You can't be a man with your friend. Isn't that settling? Cooper: Kinda, yeah. Yes. Violet: Okay. Cooper: Settling. Violet: Great. Cooper: Thank you, yes. Violet: But we're good? Cooper: We're very good. Violet: Okay. (Naomi walks over to Addison and Sam) Naomi: Hey, ex-best friend. Hey, ex-husband. Addison: You are drunk. Naomi: Ten more minutes, and I start dancing, and I require company. Sam: I don't think I've ever seen her drunk before. Addison: Sam...Did you cheat on her? Sam: Over the years, there have been temptations, but, no...I didn't. Addison: Was there a lot of fighting or... Sam: Hardly ever. Honestly...It was bad, what I did. I have no good reason. I woke up one day...And I couldn't do it anymore. It wasn't even a choice. I had a thought...Next thing you know...I'm burning it all down. I left her. I don't know why. I don't know why. What kind of a person does that? Addison: Hell if I know. And I did it, too. (At the bar) Violet: So I ran into Allan...At whole foods. Wanna hear something funny? He said he didn't believe in marriage, that marriage wasn't for him. But I guess that was wrong, because it only took him four months. Four months after we broke up, he got married, to someone who can't be more than 25 years old. Isn't that funny? Cooper: It heads off rejection. Violet: What? Cooper: That's why I like the internet. I can't stand the...It's horrible, being rejected. Violet: It is. (Preston enters his apartment where is mom is) Jane: Preston, I thought you had a late surgery. Burke: You know all that..."I trust you" crap? You've been pulling that on me since I was this high. Jane: Preston, language. Burke: No. "I trust you" is code for "learn from your mistakes." This is not a mistake. Jane: I never said it was a mistake. Burke: Cristina never knows what's good for her. That's who she is. Jane: Preston... Burke: She hates change. I lead. I have to. And then she's grateful. That's how it was with dating, with moving in. Then I'm pleased for you. Look, I am going to make her happy, mama. The wedding is a huge step, and she's being a great sport. You know why? Because she will be happy someday. Jane: If you are so sure...Why are you yelling at me? (Susan's room) Meredith: What happened? Richard: She's septic. The sooner we can get her to an OR, the sooner we can help her. Let's move. Move. Thatcher: Richard, what...what happened? Richard: Extremely rare complication. Toxic mega colon with a perforation. Can you get your dad out of this room, please? Thatcher: This fast? How could... Richard: Sometimes it progresses this rapidly. Very rarely, but sometimes. We booked an O.R. Thatcher: You're going into surgery right now? I...I didn't sign a consent form. Richard: She needs surgery right now, Thatcher. Not tomorrow, not later today. Right now. Susan: Thatcher... Thatcher: Honey, listen... Meredith: We need you to stay back, okay? (Outside the OR) Meredith: You're gonna be okay. This happens. You're gonna be okay. We're losing her pulse she's coding. Richard: Okay, let's go. Let's move. Move. (Lisa's room) Lisa: She's okay, huh? I mean, after all she went through, she still looks pretty awesome. Cooper: Lisa, we need to know what you want to do with the baby. Lisa: Carol...she wants this so bad. Naomi: This is about what you want. We did find out the paternity. Lisa: No, no. I don't wanna know. She's awesome, though. Addison: You don't have to decide right now. Lisa: No. I know what I want to do. (Carol and the others are in the nursery while the doctors watch from outside) Pete: Lisa gave the baby to Carol. Cooper: On the condition they'd all be part of her life. Sam: So it turns out the baby will have three dads anyway. Naomi: And two moms. Violet: Lisa did a good thing. They look happy. Naomi: They look like a family. (Izzie is in the elevator with George) George: Izzie, look... Izzie: Look, I don't want you to go. To Mercy West...I don't want you...It's not fair. I know we can't help what happened, and I know that we didn't...I stood in that bridal shop with your wife, and I smiled and I talked, and I felt like...It's not fair. I don't want you to go to Mercy West because I'm losing my best friend, and it's not fair. It's just not fair. (They hug and then begin kissing) George: We can't. Izzie: I know. (The elevator doors open and Callie is outside them) Callie: Hey. I was looking for you. You ready to go? (Alex is taking Jane Doe for a walk outside) Alex: A lot of folks would kll for what you have, you know? A clean slate. So you don't remember? So what? You'll make new memories. Oh, wow. Look at that. It's so beautiful. Jane Doe: How can you be so...You're so good with me. What's wrong with you that you can't be this good with someone you have feelings for? What happened to you, Alex? Alex: Maybe I don't remember. So what? (Meredith, Richard and Bailey walks into the hall where Thatcher is. Derek is also nearby) Meredith: We...we did everything...we could. Thatcher: You...you said it was really simple and that it was this...small thing. Meredith: It was. (Thatcher suddenly slaps Meredith in the face) Thatcher: She had the hiccups. She came here...Because...because she trusted you. I trusted you. (Meredith runs off) Derek: Meredith, just stop...okay, just stop. Meredith: No, don't. Don't. MVO: At some point, maybe we accept that the dream has become a nightmare. Thatcher: She had the hiccups. Oh, god. The hiccups. (Burke and Cristina are finally alone) Burke: They've left. It's just us. Cristina: Oh, thank god. Ohh. I got a dress. Burke: Yeah? You happy? Cristina: Yeah. Are you...happy? Burke: Yeah. MVO: We tell ourselves the reality is better. (Meredith, Alex and Izzie are at the house) Alex: Limes! Meredith: Limes. Izzie: Limes. Alex: So what are we drinking to this time? Izzie: Friends. Crappy friends. Meredith: Family. Crappy family. Alex: Again? Meredith: Again. Izzie: Again. Meredith: Who wants another? (Derek is outside and once again is left alone) MVO: We convince ourselves it's better that we never dream at all. But the strongest of us, the most determined of us, we hold on to the dream. (Addison is preparing to leave LA) Naomi: You're ugly and old. Addison: I'll miss you, too. Okay. Naomi: There is an empty office. Addison: Don't tempt me. Naomi: Think about it. (Addison enters the elevator) MVO: Or we find ourselves faced with a fresh dream we never considered. Pete: Hold the door. MVO: We awake to find ourselves...Against all odds...Feeling hopeful. Addison: This is gonna sound...when no one else is around, the elevator kind of, uh...Talks to me. Pete: Hi, Tilly. Tilly: Hey, Pete. Pete: That's Tilly. She works security. The camera is right there. Addison: Oh. Hello, Tilly. Tilly: Hey, I get my kicks wherever I can. Pete: You goin' home? Addison: Yeah...Home. Pete: You get what you came for? Addison: I honestly...don't know. Pete: Do you want me to kiss you again? Addison: I think...not. Pete: Because of the elevators where you come from? Those horny, aphrodisiac elevators? Addison: Yeah, that, and, um...I'm not interested, so... Pete: Oh. You're interested. (Pete gets out of the elevator and slowly Addison does too. Addison drives her car back to Seattle.) MVO: And if we're lucky, we realize...In the face of everything, in the face of life...The true dream...Is being able to dream at all.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x23 - The Other Side of this Life Pt.2"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 3x24: Testing 1-2-3 Original Airdate: 5/10/2007 Written by: Allan Heinberg Directed by: Christopher Misiano (Meredith is dressing for Susan's funeral) MVO: A surgeon's education never ends. Every patient, every symptom, every operation...is a test, a chance for us to demonstrate how much we know...and how much more we have to learn. (The kitchen at Meredith's house) Cristina: How do you treat pancreatic divisum? Izzie? Izzie: Oh, Cristina. If you're not gonna let us sleep, you at least have to let me put coffee in my cup. Cristina: Okay, so go. No one's stopping you. Izzie: I'm too tired to go. Cristina: Pancreatic divisum. Alex: Dorsal duct sphincterotomy. Cristina: Not your turn, but correct. You do me. Alex: I can't believe O'Malley's missing this. How's he gonna be ready? Cristina: Oh, you're kidding, right? Cristina: We have Callie's cards, but George has... Izzie: George has Callie. Alex: What's the most frequent cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients? Izzie: Is she coming to this bachelorette thing tonight? Cristina: Rotavirus. Yes. Uh, no! No, no, no. Uh, salmonella. Alex: Diarrhea in hospitalized patients. (Meredith enters) Meredith: The most frequent cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients is C.Diff which can lead to toxic megacolon, perforation, sepsis and death. That's what klled Susan. Izzie: Is she okay? Cristina: Oh, she's fine. Alex: Dude, she's messed up. Izzie: Of course she's messed up. Susan was basically her surrogate mother. Cristina: Yeah, her fake mom was better than her real mom. Izzie: Is she going to the hospital first or the funeral? Cristina: First to the hospital, then to the funeral, then to the test this afternoon. Alex: Has she even studied? Cristina: Yeah, she studied. She's fine. She just needs to be left alone, okay? So what's inside the carotid sheath? Izzie? (Callie and George are at their hotel room) George: The internal carotid artery, the internal jugular vein and the vagus nerve. Callie: Ah, that was too easy. Let's find you a hard one. Uh, what is this? George: Uh, what is what? Oh, yeah. That just came this morning. Callie: You got... You got a spot at Mercy West! Why...why didn't you tell me? George: Because it's pending the results of the intern exam. Callie: Oh, you know what this means, don't you? You, you got, you got into Mercy West you got into mercy west George: I haven't told the chief yet. Callie: You'll tell him today. He'll understand. It's a smaller program, fewer residents...fewer distractions, more surgeries. And when I come home and ask you how your day went, you can actually tell me because I won't already know. (They kiss. She leaves George smiling sadly.) (Derek enters the elevator where Meredith is) Meredith: Hi. Derek: Hi. Derek: Look, I... I know this is an...an impossible day for you. So...I'm just want to say one thing. I brought a black suit, just in case. Meredith: Thank you. But I think this is something I need to do by myself. (His pager goes off and he exits the elevator) Derek: If you need me, just... (The elevator closes)...let me know. (Burke walks up to Cristina in the hallway) Burke: Oh, Cristina. Cristina: What is MEN Syndrome? Don't answer that. Burke: The minister needs to see a copy of your vows before the wedding. Cristina: Multiple endocrine neoplasia. Yes. Burke: Look, I know it's test day, and I'm not supposed to be talking about the wedding on test day . But since tomorrow's our wedding day- Cristina: You have five seconds. Go. Burke: Bill Adams can't make it. I have no best man. Cristina: Oh, no. Baby, I'm so sorry. Burke: And I need your vows by... Cristina: Okay, time's up. Burke: Cristina... Cristina: Test day. Burke: What am I supposed to tell the minister? Cristina: Test day. (Burke, Mark, Derek, Addison, Callie and Bailey are in the ER) Addison: They paged you guys, too? Burke: Well, I think they paged all of us. Addison: That can't be good. Mark: Sure it can. He could be letting us know I won the race for chief. Bailey: Not today, he isn't. He's making his recommendation to the board tomorrow for chief of surgery and chief resident. Derek: Why were we all paged? Bailey: Oh, because search and rescue found those lost climbers who were up on Mount Rainier. (Richard enters) Richard: People, the climbers are on their way. Derek: Any specifics? Richard: They found only three so far. One's still missing. They're reporting severe dehydration with traumatic head and chest injuries. Dr. Bailey, Dr. Torres, you'll be my trauma team. Bailey: Bad day not to have interns. Mark: What? Callie: Today's the intern exam. Richard: You'll all have to do your own heavy lifting today. And if you see an intern, which you will, because they can't help themselves, turn them away until after the exam. The ambulances are five minutes away. It's time to do what we do best, people. Let's roll. (Alex is in the NICU holding Jane Doe's baby while she quizzes him) Jane Doe: What is a Gerota's fascia? Alex: Uh, the fascia surrounding the kidney. Jane Doe: Which is longer, the left or the right renal vein? Alex: That's right. The left one. Jane Doe: Looks and smarts...not bad. Alex: You think? Jane Doe: She's got my dad's nose, though. Girl's gotta have a big personality to pull off that nose. Alex: What? You...you remember your dad? Jane Doe: No. I don't...no. Alex: You just said... Jane Doe: I know, but I... I have no idea where that came from. Alex: That was a memory. That's what it's like sometimes. It doesn't always come back all at once. It can happen in bits and pieces. Jane Doe: Don't...don't get all... Alex: Dude, your memory's coming back. (Richard, Burke and Derek are standing in the ambulance bay) Richard: So how you feelin', Preston? You ready? Burke: I'm always ready for surgery. Derek: I think he's talking about the wedding. Richard: Yeah, tomorrow's the big day. Burke: And apart from the fact that Cristina hasn't written her vows, my best man just canceled, and it's still raining... Derek: He's not ready. Richard: You're never ready. I certainly wasn't. But then... The minute I saw Adele coming down that aisle...well... Have you picked your best man? Burke: Actually, chief, I... Derek: You can't be his best man. Richard: Why not? Derek: Because it's unethical. It's a conflict of interest. The man wants to be chief of surgery. Burke: Actually, Derek... Derek: Not that that's why you're asking. Burke: I was... Going to ask you. Derek: Ask me what? (Burke just looks at him) Derek: Really? Burke: We have been through a lot this year. Derek: And everybody else turned you down. Oh, what do I have to do? Richard: Well, traditionally the best man plans the bachelor party. Derek: Drinks at Joe's after work? Burke: Yeah. I knew you were the man for the job. (The ambulance arrives) Paramedic: Dale Winick, 32, B.P.90 over 50,tachy to 110. Severe frostbite, but no obvious internal injuries. Richard: Got it. My god. Derek: Wow. Paramedic: Yeah, those aren't gloves. (The trauma room) Dale: Please someone tell me are the other guys ok? Richard: They're right behind you. We'll let you know. Mark: Get him a tet-tox and push a gram of cefazolin IV. And let's get some warm, circulating water to start thawing his hands. Addison: I'll get someone on it. Callie. (Addison walks into the hall) (The interns are in the hallway peering through a window at the ER) Izzie: We're supposed to be studying. If Bailey finds out we're down here... Cristina: We are studying. How do you treat frostbite? George: Re-warm, avoid early surgery unless there's a deep infection due to auto-amputation. Cristina: See? Studying. (Another frostbite sufferer is entering the ER) Burke: Okay, okay, Mr. Meltzer, Mr. Meltzer, I'm gonna need you to save your breath, okay? We're gonna give you some pain meds. Andy: It hurts Burke: You have several broken ribs, which are compromising your breathing. You understand? Cristina: Did you see that? Meredith: That is freaky. Cristina: I think that was a flail chest. I've never seen one before. Come on. Come on. Why, oh, why does today have to be test day? Meredith: Oh, I know. Cristina: Look... I bet you if you talk to the chief, he'll let you take the test later with the funeral and everything. Meredith: I don't need to take the test later. Cristina: Okay. (Another patient enters) Derek: Can I get a little help here? Jack: I can't feel my legs! Derek: Sir, you could have a spinal injury. You need to stop fighting me and stay calm, okay? You're only making it worse. Where are we going? Addison: You guys are going to trauma three. Derek: All right. Trauma three. (Izzie and George are standing alone in the hallway) Izzie: You okay? George: Yeah. I got accepted at Mercy West. Izzie: Wow, that's... Are you gonna go? George: Well, I kinda have to now, right? (Bailey walks into the hallway) Bailey: What are you fools doing here? In a few hours, you people are taking a test that will determine the course of your entire medical careers because the five interns with the lowest test scores will be cut from the program. But are you studying for this test? No, you're not. Are you helping out in the ER? You are most certainly not! Are you getting the hell out of here before I throw you out? I think you are. (Alex runs into Derek in the hallway) Alex: Whoa, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Aren't you supposed to be studying? Alex: Yeah, I just have a quick question. Derek: Yeah. Alex: Could the craniotomy you performed on Ava...on Jane Doe...could...could that have affected her memory? Derek: Uh, it's doubtful. I was mostly working in the speech center of her brain. But you never know. Why? Alex: I think she remembered something. Can...can we test her to see if anything's changed? Derek: Yeah, you can run another WMSR, but we're gonna have to wait and see if she remembers anything else. Good sign, though. Alex: Thanks. (Derek walks up to the nurse's station where Addison is) Derek: Nice work, Dr. Montgomery. Addison: Oh, thanks. I was just directing traffic. Derek: I was being sarcastic. Addison: Oh, like brain surgery is so impressive. Derek: It is, actually. (Joe and Walter enter) Joe: Addison. Addison: Yes? Oh, Joe, Walter. What are you guys doing here? Everything okay? Yeah, we came to see you, actually. Joe: Uh we need a consult. Addison: Don't tell me you're pregnant. Joe: Uh, no, but...our birth mom is. Walter: Potential birth mom. Joe: She hasn't actually picked us yet. Addison: You're adopting? Joe: Well, we filed an application, but we never thought we'd get picked. You know, bar-owning gays don't get picked very often. Walter: I guess having a baby is easier than we thought. Addison: Yes, I guess so. Joe: So I was hoping you could take a look at her? You know, kicking the tires, checking underneath the hood? Walter: Car metaphors? No. Addison: I'd be happy to. Just, uh, give me a call and we'll set up an appointment. Joe: Well, see, that's the thing. Uh, she lives in Portland, and she's only gonna be in Seattle for one day, so... Walter: She's kind of here now. Addison: Now, as in...(Joe steps aside to reveal a pregnant woman) Now. (Izzie catches up to George in the hallway) Izzie: George, wait. Wait a minute. George: Yeah? Izzie: You don't have to do this. You don't have to transfer to Mercy West. George: Yeah, I do. Izzie: No. Just forget about you and me for a second, okay? What about Meredith? What about Alex and Cristina? Who's gonna hold us together if you're not here? You're the glue. You're George. George: I can't stay here. I can't... Izzie: No one's making you go. George: Stay here and see you every day... And not...I can't keep kissing you in elevators. Izzie: I know. I know that. George: I'm married. I'm a married man. (Alex enters Jane Doe's room) Alex: You busy? Jane Doe: Cute. What are you doing here? Isn't the exam in like- Alex: Yeah, I know, I know. I just want to run a quick neuro-psych test on you. Jane Doe: No. No! Go take your test. I...I have a baby to feed. Alex: What the hell is wrong with you? Jane Doe: Nothing. Alex: You've been sitting in this bed for weeks wishing you could remember who you were, now suddenly you can. Jane Doe: I can't. It was something I said. Alex: Well, you remember your father's face. Why are you acting like it's no big deal, like it happens all the time? Jane Doe: Alex, come on. I...I...it...that's not... Alex: Unless it does happen all the time. Tell me the truth. Do you remember? Do you know who you are? (Cristina and Meredith are walking through the hall) Cristina: What is biloma? What is biloma? Meredith: Cristina, I really don't have time ...A biloma is an intperitoneal bile fluid collection. Cristina: Excellent. Meredith: Okay? I'll be fine. (Thatcher enters) George: Meredith. Meredith: George, I gotta go. George: Your dad. Meredith: Hey. I...I...I was just on my way... Thatcher: No, I...I came here to tell you you're not wanted. I don't want you at any funeral, Meredith. Richard: Thatcher, why don't you come... Thatcher: She trusted you! She came to you for help, and you klled her. You did. You klled my wife. You took her from me. (Molly enters) Molly: Dad! Thatcher: So I don't...I don't want to see you. I don't want to hear from you, and I don't want you anywhere near her funeral. You understand me? Do you understand me? Molly: Dad, dad, come on. This...Lexie's waiting in the car. We have to go, dad. We have to go now. Thatcher: She was everything to me, all I had. She was all I had. She was all I had. (Alex is still in Jane Doe's room) Alex: I can sit here all day. I'll miss my test, but I will sit here all day. Jane Doe: I don't...I...it happened a few days ago, and I...I just...I just woke up, and it was all there again. Alex: And you didn't tell me? Jane Doe: Becau...because there's...there's nothing to tell. Alex: Why don't I believe that? Jane Doe: I was a pregnant woman in a lousy marriage to the nicest guy anyone's ever met. End of story. Alex: Who...who is he? What does he do? Wh...where...where did you meet him? Jane Doe: College. We got married the year after we graduated. He... I wanted...I wanted to move to New York, and he wanted to live on the side of a mountain and take over his dad's shop. And he's a woodworker. He makes beautiful furniture. It's...it's...it's quiet, and he's quiet and...I was going out of my mind. Alex: So you just... Took off? Jane Doe: No, I... I need...I need...I need...I needed to think and to be around other people, so I came to Seattle, and I...thought I'd see the sights, ride the ferry. Alex: Have you even called him? Jane Doe: No. Alex: Why not? Jane Doe: I left him, Alex. Alex: So? He's your husband. You should call him. You want me to call him? I mean, what's his name? What's your name? Jane Doe: I'm not telling you that. (Meredith, George, Cristina and Izzie are in the locker room preparing for their test) Izzie: We've got everything taken care of. George: You don't have to worry about a thing. Cristina: I've got number 2 pencils and bottled water. Izzie: Oh, and...and powerbars. Cristina: And you know the material. You're gonna get a high score...not as high as mine...but everything's gonna be fine. (Alex enters) Alex: What are you guys all standing around for? Don't we have a test to...what happened? (Richard enters) Richard: You people need to head upstairs. Dr. Grey will join you in a minute. (Everyone leaves) Richard: You're not to blame for Susan Grey's death, and you know it, and your father knows it, too. He's just... Well, he's never been the best communicator, and he just lost his wife. Meredith: Stop acting like my surrogate father. Richard: Meredith, I'm...just... Meredith: Because you slept with my mother, that does not make you my father. (Derek is in the ER with the three men) Derek: Follow my finger, okay? Up, down, up down, side to side. Good. Let me know if you can feel this, okay? Jack: Yeah, I'm not enjoying that. Derek: Good. That's a good sign. Jack: It means I'm not paralyzed? Derek: Well, the MRI Will show us the full extent of the injuries. But, uh, can we ask you what happened up there? Dale: It was my fault. Andy: Dale...it wasn't your fault. Dale: 60 ways to get up Mount Rainier, and I had to pick Liberty Ridge Jack: It wasn't the route. It was the storm. On a clear day, you don't think about storms. A minute later, the wind's pasting you to the side of the mountain, and you can't see your hand in front of your face. Burke: Is that why you fell, because of the storm? Jack: All I know is I felt the rope tug, and...I was in midair. Andy: We all were. We were tied together. Must have been a 100-foot drop. Dale: And when we came to, Lonnie wasn't moving. Derek: Lonnie? He's your friend who's still missing? Burke: Well, this Lonnie, is that why he didn't make it back, because he was hurt? Jack: Because he was dad. Burke: I'm sorry. Jack: We had to leave him. We had to get to the other side of the mountain, or we'd be dad, too. We had no choice. Dale: You always have a choice. You never leave a man behind. (The test room for the interns) Proctor: Please take your seats, doctors, and put all study materials away. Cristina: Okay, if you don't know the answer, choose "B." It's always "B." Proctor: And write your name in the upper right-hand corner of your answer sheets. (George goes to sit down and then moves when Izzie sits nearby) Proctor: You may open your test booklets...now. (Joe and Walter are in the exam room with Rina and Addison) Joe: We...we don't have to be here if you're uncomfortable. Rina: Oh, no, it's fine. Un...unless you're uncomfortable. Joe: Actually, uh, I...I... Walter: He's fine. Addison: So, Rina, how are you feeling? Any problems? Rina: Just the fact that I'm huge, and I have, like, the worst heartburn I've ever had in my life. Addison: I can prescribe an antacid for that. The first thing we're gonna do is take a look at the baby. This might be a little cold. Rina: This baby deserves parents who are gonna make it their whole world, you know? Joe: Y...you know we're gay, right? Rina: I figured, with you both being boys and everything. The other couple I'm considering, they're,like,oh,40. She's been trying to get pregnant for ten years. It's so sad. Addison: There's the heartbeat. Joe: Wow. Rina: There's, like, a person inside of me. Addison: Actually... There are two people. Twins. Rina: Oh, my god. Walter: Oh, my god. Joe: Oh, my god. I think I'm gonna pass out. Addison: Joe? Joe? (The test room for the interns) Proctor: Doctors, we are halfway through our allotted time. You only have 60 minutes left to complete the exam. (Meredith sits there not completing anything on her test. Everyone else is working as hard as possible. George is distracted by Meredith's lack of concentration in the test.) (The test is over and the interns are in the hall) George: Meredith. Meredith! (She just walks away) She didn't write anything on the test. She didn't answer a single question. She just sat there. Cristina: Wait, G...George, just...just give her a second. (Burke, Derek, Mark, Callie and Bailey are in the x-ray room) Burke: I've got an extensive antero-lateral flail chest. He'll need surgical sab. Dr. Torres, if you're available, I would really... Derek: She's not. My guy has bone fragments in his spinal cord, internal fixation. Dr. Torres is gonna scrub in with me. Bailey: Uh, we have more than one orthopedic surgeon in this hospital. Mark: And you'll need 'em, because Dr. Torres and I are looking at possible multiple amputations. Callie: Guys, I can be there for all of you. We just have to figure it out. Dr. Burke asked first. (They all talk over each other) Callie: Well, I mean, with all due respect... Bailey: Okay, you all want Torres. Fine. Rock, paper, scissors. Derek: One, two, three. Bailey: All rocks .Very typical. Ready? And... Rock smashes scissors. Callie: See you in the O.R. Derek: Best two out of three. Dr. Burke! (Everyone leaves except Mark and Bailey. Mark stands there smiling at her.) Bailey: What? Mark: I just wanted to know how it feels...to not have to spend the next 24 hours wondering if Richard picked you to be chief resident. How's it feel to be the chosen one? (Mark leaves) Bailey: Feels just fine. (Meredith walks past Derek who is at the nurse's station) Derek: Hey. How'd it go? Meredith. (She keeps walking without even acknowledging Derek) Cristina: Don't worry. I've got it. (Izzie, George, Alex and Cristina are in the hallway above where Meredith is sitting in the waiting room) Izzie: It's not like she actually flunked. She...she just didn't write anything. Alex: It's kinda like she actually flunked. George: One guy two years ago, he was on call three nights before his test. He slept through the whole thing. He had to repeat his intern year. Izzie: She can't repeat her intern year. It's pathetic. We have to do something. Cristina. Cristina: What? O...okay, I don't know. I mean, Meredith and I don't fail things. This is not in my book. (All of their pagers go off) George: It's Bailey. We gotta go. We gotta go. Izzie: We can't just leave her here. Alex: You got a better idea? (They all walk up to where Bailey is) Bailey: Okay, it's, uh, show time, people. Yang, you're scrubbing in with Dr. Burke. Karev, you're with Dr. Montgomery. Stevens, find Dr. Sloan. George: You paged me, too. Bailey: Mercy West. George: Callie told you. Bailey: You're in the best surgical program in the country, the toughest, most competitive, most respected. You want to leave this for Mercy West? George: Mercy West... Bailey: Is not Seattle Grace. Are you trying to...after all the work that we've put into you, are you trying to throw your career away? George: I'm trying to... Do what's best for me right now. I've had some personal issues. Bailey: I...I don't know what your personal problems are, and I don't care. I do care about your career, so let me make myself clear. This is a mistake. (George walks away and past Izzie who has been watching from afar) Izzie: George... (Callie has been watching the whole exchange from nearby) (George is in the waiting room with Meredith) George: It's like we're on a train that's going 200 miles an hour, and it would just be so nice to get off and just...stand on the platform, just for a minute. Meredith: Looks like I'm off the train. George: Our parents died. When a parent dies, it doesn't make any sense. So you make a lot of really terrible decisions...that you're gonna end up having to live with for a long time. Meredith: You should go. You are still on the train. It's okay. You have to go. Go. Go. Go, go. (Addison enters the ER and Adele calls to her) Adele: Addison. Addison: Adele. What are you doing here? What happened? Adele: A fender bender. I'm fine. I told the ER Resident I'm fine, but... Addison: All right, I'm gonna page Richard. I'll let him know you're here. Adele: Oh, you will do no such thing, Addison. Richard cannot know I'm here. We're separated. My life is none of his business. I'm serious. Addison: Okay. Uh, all right. Well...let's get you checked out. Do you have any, um, any pain, any...anything? Adele: Well...there's one thing I should probably mention. I'm pregnant. (Adele and Addison are in an exam room) Addison: The baby looks fine on the ultrasound, but you are spotting a little. It's nothing severe, but I would like to hold you overnight for observation. Adele: Overnight? Oh, no. I'm sorry Addison: But...for just a couple of hours at least. Look, it could be nothing. But a pregnancy at your age is... Adele: Terrifying? Embarrassing? Addison: I was going to say a miracle. Adele: I don't know. I resigned myself to the fact a long time ago that I would never have kids, and here I am, 52, about to be divorced and pregnant. Addison: May I ask who...the father is? Adele: You may ask. Addison: Look, all I'm saying is that if Richard finds out that you're walking around this hospital carrying another man's baby... Adele: Richard is not going to find out because neither one of us are going to tell him. (Addison walks into the hall and bumps into Richard) Addison: Chief. Richard: Addison. I just heard the news. Addison: You...you heard? Who told you? What...what did you hear? Richard: That Joe and Walter are adopting. Is the birth mom here? I'd love to put in a good word. Addison: Oh, no, no, no. Chief, you don't want to go in there. It's a young girl... in the stirrups, you know, her equipment exposed, right? You don't want to see that. Richard: No, I...I don't want to see that. (Alex is in the waiting room with Meredith) Meredith: Are you going to give me an inspirational speech, too? Alex: No. (Izzie and George are in the hall) Izzie: George... George: Oh, I can't talk. I have a patient to prep. Izzie: This isn't about you and me. This is about Meredith. What are we gonna do? George: There's nothing to do. Izzie: What? George: I'm not even gonna be here in a week, so... Izzie: So your transferring to another hospital means we're not gonna be friends anymore? Why are you doing this, George? Didn't you hear a word of what Bailey said? (They walk past the curtain where the climbers are) Andy: What were we supposed to do, hmm, carry him down the mountain? He was our friend, and we left him there. Jack: If we hadn't, we'd be dad, too. You know that. Andy: Dale was right. You don't...you don't do that. You don't climb all the way up there together just to leave a man behind. (Addison is in the scrub room with Callie) Addison: I am being stalked by pregnant women. Callie: You're an obstetrician. Addison: And barren. You know, apparently as a healthy, successful woman in her 30s, I don't deserve to have a baby. Maybe I'd have a fighting chance if were gay or a teenager or a member of the AARP. Callie: Oh, that sucks. It really... Addison: No, Oh, no, not you, too. Callie: Oh, no, no, I'm not. I'm just...I'm thinking about it. That's all. Oh, I don't know. I don't even know. It's just that with George going to Mercy West next year... Addison: He is? Callie: Yeah, they have a spot for him, and we need a fresh start. We need to get away from all this crap. It might be a good time. Addison: It's a great time. Don't let me and my fossilized eggs discourage you. Callie: Are we gonna be friends still if I get pregnant? Addison: Absolutely not. (George walks up to Richard in the hall) George: Hi, chief. Richard: O'Malley, finally coming to see me about that letter from mercy west? George: No, sir. I'm here about Meredith. I have to say, I don't get it. (Callie is in surgery with Cristina, Burke and Dale) Cristina: I have to say I don't get it. Why would anybody waste their time freezing and climbing up the side of a glacier? Burke: It's a way to test yourself, you know, your strength and endurance. You put yourself through a situation like that, and you know exactly who you are, what you're made of. Burke: No. You? Callie: I used to, all the time, in college. Burke: Really? Cristina: Really? Callie: Yeah, it's, intense. I mean, it's painful and hellish, and you think your lungs are shredding, but, man, when you get to the top, there is nothing like it. Makes the whole climb worth it. (She leaves and then enters the surgery where Mark, Izzie and Andy are) Callie: How's it going? Mark: Worse than I thought. There's nothing here. Callie: We're gonna amputate both? Izzie: You can't amputate both of his hands. Isn't the left hand less damaged? Mark: I don't want to take the man's hands, Dr. Stevens. Once the infection gets that deep, the only way to save his life is to make the cut. (Derek is in surgery with Jack) Derek: The patient's laminotomy happens at what level, Dr. O'Malley? George: The level of maximal neural compressions between the pedicles of the fractured vertebrae. Derek: Very good. You must have aced your exam today. George: I don't know about aced. Derek: How did Meredith do? George: Yeah, she was kinda...don't worry, though. I talked to the chief. Derek: About what? George: She didn't tell you? (Alex enters Jane Doe's room where she is pacing the floor) Alex: All right, here's the thing...the Seattle police department's been on this for weeks. They've been in contact with missing persons from all 50 states, Canada, the FBI Jane Doe: Alex... Alex: You know how many people are trying to find you? Jane Doe: Yeah, yes. Alex: That's right. You do know. You know exactly how many relatives you have. You know if your parents are dad or alive. You know if you've got a sister somewhere who cries every day because she has no idea what happened to you. Jane Doe: Stop it. Alex: What do you think it's like for your husband? Jane Doe: He didn't come looking for me, okay? He obviously doesn't want to find me. Besides, it's my life. Alex: No, not just yours. What about your daughter? I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna lie for you. If you're not gonna tell anybody, I will. Jane Doe: What are you gonna say? You don't know my real name. You don't know anything about me. It'll be my word against yours. Alex: You're right. I have absolutely no idea who you are. (He leaves, slamming the door behind him) (George and Izzie are in the scrub room) Izzie: You paged me? George: Yeah. Uh, I think I figured out a way to help Meredith. But I've got Shepherd's post-op, so... I can't do it without your help. And I won't leave the program without, uh, knowing that she's still in it. Izzie: You're not leaving the program. Listen... we made a mistake. We had sex. But that's all it was. I think we both wanted it to mean something because...you didn't want to have to feel like that guy that cheats on his wife, and I didn't want to have to feel like that girl who put you in that position in the first place. But the truth is... it didn't mean anything. I know you think I have feelings for you, but I don't. So you can stay. You're not leaving the program. (Izzie leaves and then enters a utility room where she begins to cry) (Mark and Callie are walking through the hall) Mark: Nice work...three surgeries at the same time. Callie: I performed four osteosyntheses, amputated two hands and sab one spine in two hours. Mark: Impressive. Looks like Bailey's not a shoo-in for chief resident after all. (Bailey walks up) Bailey: Uh, you're in the running for chief resident, too? Callie: Yeah. Why wouldn't I be? Bailey: No. Uh, it makes sense. I just... I hadn't thought about it. That's all. Callie: I'm good at what I do, Bailey. I'm focused, I'm disciplined, I'm...I'm more than qualified to be chief resident. Look, we all know that you're the chief's favorite, but that doesn't mean I can't take a sht. (Izzie escorts Meredith to a conference room where Richard is) Izzie: Here she is. Richard: Thank you, Stevens. You can go now. Izzie: We'll be waiting right outside. Meredith: You don't have to. Izzie: Shut up. Meredith: If you called me here to lecture me... Richard: There's a copy of the intern's exam on the table, some number 2 pencils, a bottle of water and a sandwich if you get hungry. I'll send a proctor in, and I'll come back in a few hours and check on you. Meredith: You are not my father. Richard: I know that. I know. (He hugs her and she breaks down crying) (Derek looks in and sees Meredith taking her test and all her friends are waiting nearby. He is once again left behind.) Alex: Well, at least test day is almost over. Cristina: Speak for yourself. I'm getting married tomorrow. (Seattle scenes) (Joe's bar) Burke: Hey. Addison: Hey. This is what you invited me to? This is your big bachelor party? Derek: It was last-minute. I needed some warm bodies. Mark: Which would explain why I'm here. Addison: Why am I the only girl, by the way? What am I, the entertainment? I am not stripping. Derek: That's okay. We've seen it already. Mark: True. Burke: I haven't. Addison: Yeah, well, why don't I buy you a drink instead? First round's on me. (Mark goes to the bar with her) Mark: I'll give you a hand with those. Derek: Cristina write her vows? Burke: I guess I'll find out tomorrow. How's Meredith doing? Derek: I have no idea. Shouldn't be this difficult, should it? Burke: Probably not. Then again...when I see Cristina walking down that aisle tomorrow... Derek: It'll all be worth it? (Addison and Mark are at the bar) Mark: So how was LA? Addison: LA was...different. Look, Mark... things don't have to be awkward between us. We tried. We tried, and we did our best, and just because we failed as a couple, it doesn't mean... Mark: I know. Addison: So we're still friends? Mark: With benefits? Addison: Don't push it. Mark: Thanks, Joe. Addison: So hey, how'd it go with, uh, Rina? Joe: Oh, well... Walter took her to the bus station, and I'm pretty sure he was wishing it was me he was dropping off. Addison: That bad, huh? Joe: If I can't even make it through an ultrasound without breathing into a paper bag, how am I gonna handle a kid? Forget about twins. Addison: You two are gonna make great parents, okay? Whenever that happens. Joe: You...ever think about having kids? Addison: All the time. (Richard is walking in the hall and sees Adele, she ducks into the women's room) Richard: Adele? Adele. Oh, come on. I know you saw me. Now this is just silly. You don't have to hide. I've moved on. I'm dating now. Okay, I'm not actually dating, but I intend to...at some point. (Cristina's bachlorette party at Meredith's house) Cristina: What the hell am I supposed to do about the stupid vows? Meredith: You still haven't written anything? Cristina: Well, it's stupid crap. Izzie: No, it isn't. Cristina: Well, what am I supposed to say? I swear to love and cherish you every moment of every day of my life? I mean, that's not real. I mean, that's not how it works, right? Callie: It does, at first, but then it... Meredith: It passes. Izzie: No, it doesn't. You guys are just used to it. That's all. You already have it. You have that thing everybody else wants. You can take it for granted. But let me tell you, if you didn't, if you couldn't be with the person that you love, I guarantee that hearing him promise to love you and honor you and cherish you, no matter what, it would be pretty much all you could think about. Cristina: Wait, can you say that again, uh, just slowly? Meredith: You're talking about Denny, right? Izzie: Yeah. (Derek is at the bar when a woman walks up) Woman: Hi. Derek: Hi. Woman: Can I buy you a drink? Derek: You're forward. Woman: Bad day, I get to be forward today. Derek: Yeah, I had a bad day, too. Woman: So what do you say, one drink? Derek: Um... I'm with some friends. It's a bachelor party. So I'm gonna... I'm gonna say no. Woman: That's too bad. Derek: Yeah... maybe you're right. (George is sitting alone in the hall of the hospital) (Jane Doe walks up to Alex who is in the NICU with her baby) Jane Doe: Rebecca Pope. That's my name. (Richard is still outside the bathroom) Richard: Adele! (He enters the bathroom) Adele, come on. Now you've got me in this ladies' room. The least you could do is an...(He sees Adele on the floor) Adele. Oh, my god. (Walter and Rina enter Joe's bar) Joe: What are you doing here? Walter: Sweetie, get Rina some water. Addison: I thought you guys were going to the bus station. Rina: We were. It's this heartburn. It's like it's...it's ripping through...(She falls to the floor)...oh! Addison: Call an ambulance. (Bailey is on the phone) Bailey: Tucker, uh, since he's awake, can you put him on? (An ambulance arrives) Bailey: Let me call you back. (To paramedic) Nicole, what have you got? Paramedic: We got the fourth climber. Pressure's 70s, last pulse 135. Severely hypothermic. Started two large-bore IVs. Oh, and, uh, obvious head trauma. (She pulls back the blanket) Bailey: Is that an axe in his head? What the hell happened up on that mountain? Let's go. (Richard is on the bathroom floor) Richard: Adele. Somebody help me! Please! (He puts his hand into a puddle of Adele's blood) Somebody help. Please, somebody help me!	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "03x24 - Testing 1-2-3"}	foreverdreaming
2007 GREY'S ANATOMY 3x25: Didn't We Almost Have It All? Original Airdate: 5/17/2007 Written by: Tony Phelan & Joan Rater Directed by: Rob Corn (Meredith is standing in the hallway looking out the window at a beautiful sunrise) Richard Voice Over (RVO): Being chief is about responsibility. (Richard is sitting in his office at his desk) RVO: Every single surgical patient in the hospital is your patient whether you're the one who cut them open or not. (Richard is in the ER with Adele) Richard: Come on, she's lost a lot of blood. RVO: The scalpel stops with you. Richard: Start 2 large bore IVs and bolus 2 liters LR. RVO: You need to be able to look at a family... (Joe and Walter have entered the ER with Burke, Addison and Rina) Burke: Ready? One, two... RVO: And tell them your team did everything they could to save someone's child... Burke: Get me a stat EKG And a portable chest, Brooke. Addison: She's 34 weeks pregnant with twins. RVO: Their husband... Addison: You guys, why don't you go have a seat in the waiting room? Walter: We're not leaving her. RVO: Their wife. (Addison is walking out of the ER when she runs into Richard and Adele) Addison: What happened? Richard: I don't know. I found her unconscious. RVO: You get caught up...taking care of other people's families. Richard: She's lost blood, a...a lot of blood RVO: And the responsibility it makes you... Richard: I didn't even know she was in the hospital. What was she doing here? RVO: You take care of other people's families...and you sacrifice your own. (Seattle scenes) (Cristina's bachlorette party at Meredith's house) Cristina: I thought I was gonna hate this party game thing, but it's kinda great. Can we set her on fre after? Meredith: No, we cannot. Callie: Okay, these wedding vows are not all gonna fit on here. Cristina: Okay, then write smaller. Callie: Be still, please. "Vow" just became "cow." Izzie: You don't need vows on your hand. When you get up there, just speak from the heart. Cristina: Uh, Izzie, the heart is an organ. It pumps, it circulates blood, it gets clogged from time to time. It does not, however, speak. It doesn't have tiny little lips on it. Izzie: Well, you're all "glass totally empty." Cristina: I'm gonna like being married. It's the wedding part that's ridiculous. (Everyone's pagers go off except Cristina's) Izzie: Oh! Party's over. Callie: Damn. Cristina: Hey, mine didn't go off. Piece of crap. Meredith: You can do this, right? Cristina: Become a piece of chattel? Sure. Looking forward to it. Meredith: I mean, no matter what, you're walking down that aisle today. I need you to go down that aisle. Cristina: Is the toilet paper cutting off your circulation? Meredith: You marrying Burke, it's a sign. It's a sign that people like you and me can do this...be healthy, be happy. You marrying burke restores my faith in me. Cristina: Oh, I get it. My wedding's about you. Meredith: Yes. Cristina: Okay. Meredith: You can do this, right? Cristina: I can do this. Meredith: Okay. (Mark and Derek enter the hospital and run into Bailey at a nurse's station) Bailey: Hey. They found the fourth climber. Vitals are sab after fluids, but... Mark: I thought he was dad. Derek: He was according to his friends. Did the CT Show a bleed? Bailey: Uh, we haven't done a CT yet Derek: I don't understand. You said there's a head trauma. Bailey: Yeah, there's been a little head trauma. Ice ax to the head. Mark: What the hell happened up on that mountain? Derek: That's a good question. (Richard and Addison are in Adele's room) Richard: You don't think it could be uterine cancer, do you? It runs in the family. Addison: No, it's not...she was in earlier. She was in a fender bender. Richard: My wife came into my hospital, and you neglected to tell me? Addison: Doctor-patient confidentiality. Richard: We're still married. She's unconscious. There are medical decisions to be made. Legally I have a right to know. I have a right... Addison: She might...be having a miscarriage. She's pregnant. (Burke is in Rina's room) Burke: I need to know what time your chest pain started. Rina: I don't know. Yesterday afternoon. Burke: What time exactly? This is important. Rina: Around 3:00. What's wrong with me? Burke: I'm gonna explain everything to you. I promise. But right now we need to get you up to the surgical floor. Rina: Surgery? But...what about my babies? Burke: I think those babies are coming out today. But I...I haven't decided I...I haven't chosen the parents. I need time to decide. Joe: You don't need to decide anything right now. Right now the most important thing is making sure that you are okay. All right? (The interns enter the ER) Cristina: Burke. Burke: Ah, I've got a surgery, but it shouldn't be more than four hours, five tops. Cristina: I can scrub in. (Addison walks up) Addison: How's Rina? Burke: I need to get a CT Angio, but I'm pretty sure it's a tear in her aorta. Her heart is about to blow. Addison: Most dissecting aortas burst within 48 hours. Burke: Which means we have less than 12 hours to fix it before she's dad. Addison: So you need me to get the babies out. Burke: So I can save her life. Cristina: You have an aortic dissection? Burke: Hey, I promise I will make it to the chapel in time. Cristina: I... (Bailey walks up) Bailey: Okay. Listen up. Uh, O'Malley, you're with Shepherd and Sloan. Stevens, you're with Burke. Karev, Addison. Go. Grey...you are with the chief's wife. Meredith: The chief's wife? Bailey: Is pregnant. Yes, I did say pregnant. I recommend that you lose the shocked look and try for something a little more dignified. Go. Cristina: Who am I on? Bailey: Uh, I didn't page you. Go home. Get some sleep. Cristina: Yeah, but I'm here already, so... Bailey: You're getting married in less than 12 hours. (Burke and Izzie are headed to the OR with Rina) Burke: Give us room. Cristina: Well, uh, Burke's getting married, too, and he gets to operate. Bailey: There's only one Preston Burke. Cristina: There's only one Cristina Yang. Bailey: I've given you the day off, the whole day. It's a kindness. Take it. It's your wedding day. There'll always be more surgeries. Cristina: But-- Bailey: Really, what would you rather be doing, prepping a patient or prepping for your wedding? Go home. (Richard is in his office talking with Mark) Richard: I never got the sense you really wanted the job. Seems to me you got in the race to play out some kind of unfinished business you had with Derek. Mark: I was in this to win, sir. I don't know if he's your new chief, but if he is, he got there because I made him fight for it. Richard: You made them all fight for it. Mark: So I'm not gonna be chief. Richard: No you're not. (Derek is in the room with Andy, Jack and Dale) Dale: They recovered Lonnie's body? Derek: Not his body. He's alive. So why don't you tell me what really happened up there on the mountain? Jack: We're half way up this ice wall. There's a...there's a ledge a couple of hundred feet above us. We figured we'd set up the tents, wait out the storm. Only Lonnie's insisting we go down the mountain. Dale: I told him, we gotta dig in, sit tight. He started freaking out, keeps saying down's the way to go. And then he starts climbing down. We were tied together. Andy: And just like that...we're falling. I swing out with my ice ax, just trying to catch a rock. And I clip Lonnie in the back of the head. Ax just...snags. We thought he was dad. Jack: It was an accident. (Adele, Richard and Addison are in her room) Adele: What happened? Addison: You've been unconscious for a while. Adele: what about... Addison: He knows. Adele, you lost a lot of blood. I'm gonna try to find a heartbeat. You should prepare yourself. Heartbeat. It's a little slower, than I'd like, but once we tnk you with liquids and a transfusion, it might get stronger. Um, I've gotta rush off to surgery, but I will back with you the minute I'm done. Okay? Adele: Thank you. Addison: Okay. (Addison leaves) Richard: Adele, why didn't you tell me? Adele: Come on, Richard. What do you think you would've done, congratulate me? I'm sure you have work to do. Richard: I'm good right here. (Alex and Addison walk up to a nurse's station) Alex: The Peds resident's on call. He'll be in the OR For Rina's delivery. Addison: Great. Just make sure they notified the NICU. (Jeff Pope walks up) Jeff: Hi. Sorry for interrupting. The nurse said that you're Dr. Montgomery. Addison: Yes. Can I help you with something? Jeff: I'm Jeff Pope Rebecca's husband? (Cristina is at her apartment trying to sleep. She lays in bed staring at her wedding dress) (Jeff enters Rebecca's room) Jeff: Rebecca? Rebecca? Rebecca: Hi, Jeff. Jeff: You, uh...your face...but it's you. I'm so sorry, baby. I should've never let you go. I'll never let you go again. (Alex walks up and sees them hugging) (Derek walks past Meredith in the hall) Meredith: Hey. Derek: I have a surgery. Meredith: I heard you're the best man. Derek: Yeah. Meredith: Well, maid of honor, best man, kinda perfect. Derek: Yeah. Meredith: I know I haven't been myself lately, but I'm me again, so I was thinking maybe you should sleep over, because the me that I am is horny for the you that you are. Derek: I met a woman last night. Meredith: You met a woman last night? Derek: At Joe's. Nothing happened. She was pretty, I noticed, and we talked. Meredith: You met a woman last night? Derek: Yeah. Meredith: So should I be worried or something? Derek: Should you be worried that I met a woman? No. Should you be worried that, for me, flirting with that woman was the highlight of my week? Yeah, you should be worried or something. (Derek walks away) (Richard is in his office talking with Addison) Addison: I don't understand. Richard: It's not you. Addison: No, I understand that part. What I don't understand is why. I need this job, Richard. I need it more than the others. Richard: Addison-- Addison: No, I need a reason to stay here. I need a reason to get up in the morning. I need to wake up and not care that it's raining or that I'm 39 and alone. I need the job, Richard. Richard: That's why. If you need a job to give you a life, you either need a new job or a new life. (Burke and Derek are in the scrub room) Burke: I'm thinking four hours tops to repair this heart, if all goes well. Derek: You're a lucky man, Burke. Cristina's great. She's there, she's sure. She's willing to commit. You're a lucky man. Burke: And you're not? (Mark enters) Mark: There he is. T-minus five hours. And how's the best man? Up to the challenge? I was an excellent best man. Derek: You know, the worst case scenario is I sleep with your wife in ten years. Burke: Okay. (Bailey is checking the bulletin board near the nurse's station) Callie: I just checked. Chief resident hasn't been posted yet Bailey: Um, no, no. I wasn't looking for chief resident. Callie: Yeah, you were. Bailey: Yeah. Okay, I was. (George walks by and enters an office, Callie follows him) Callie: George... George: Hey. Callie: What I'm about to say is, uh, is crazy, and, uh, I...I...I am not responsible. I...I am saying this against my will. Because I am a surgeon, okay? I...I...I love my job. I love my life exactly as it is. Okay? Exactly as it is. Do you understand what I'm saying? George: Not really Callie: I...I have no desire to house a human being in my body for nine lo months and then...and then...and then push it out and raise it. Okay? None. Zero. George: Okay. Callie: Except housing a human for nine long months is all that I can think about. It...it...the thoughts are invading the surgeries that I love, and it's...it's...it's...it's hormonal. It's...and horrible. But it is happening...to me. George: You want to have a baby? Callie: Apparently. George: There's a guy with an ax in his head. Callie: Right. So go. I'm a freak. Just go. Just run. Just... George: Thank you. Callie: Please. (Richard is sitting at Adele's bedside) Adele: Go. I'm fine. Richard: Take your pill...and drink your water. Adele: Richard, you know you wanna go out that door and start bossing some people around. Richard: Take your pill, Adele. See? I can do my bossing right from this chair. Adele: Go ahead, Richard, ask. I know you are dying to know whose baby... Richard: Not really my place. (Meredith enters) Meredith: Mrs. Webber...your room is ready. (Patricia enters) Patricia: Excuse me, but what do you want to do about the announcement for chief of surgery? Richard: Look, I will be right back. I promise. Adele: We've met before. You probably don't remember. You were little. Meredith: Oh. Adele: My husband always flirted with your mother. I didn't want to see that, so...I watched you a lot, watched you grow up. You turned out well. I'm sorry about your mother. Meredith: I'M...sorry about my mother, too. Adele: It wasn't your fault. Maybe it wasn't anyone's fault. You get married at 25 thinking, this is it, happily ever after. Maybe there is no happily ever after. (Cristina and Jane are at Cristina's getting ready for the wedding) Jane: It's stunning. Cristina: It's a little...um, is it supposed to be so tight? Jane: Well, it's a choker. Cristina: It's beautiful. It's really, really beautiful. I just don't know if it's me. Jane: Five generations of Burke women have worn this on their wedding day. It's a way of...joining our family, becoming a Burke. Cristina: A Burke. Jane: I'm afraid I misjudged you early on. I thought you were selfish. But you've given way to Preston's ideas about the wedding, and you've been flexible about the things that are...most important to him. And that is wonderful. Oh! It's just...what were you planning to do about your eyebrows? Cristina: Nothing. (Rina's OR) Addison: How's she doing? Burke: BP'S 92 over 56. Addison: How'd the reunion go with Jane Doe's husband? Alex: Whatever. He cried like a baby. She looked bored. Addison: Don't go overboard with compassion, Karev. Alex: She's not even sure if she wants to stay with the guy. It's complicated Izzie: It's not actually...complicated. They're married. She took a vow. You don't mess with vows. Married is married. Game over. So freaking over. Just an opinion. Burke: Pressure's dropped to 60. She's bradying down. Addison, how much longer? Addison: Rupturing the membrane now. I just need two minutes to get these babies out. Burke: Make it one. She's flat lined. Stevens, start compressions. Addison: Got the first one out. Clamp. Burke: Come on come on. Addison: Second baby's out. Okay, go. Burke: Boki, 10-blade. (Lonnie's OR) George: Poor guy...he just wanted to climb a mountain, and he ends up with an axe in his head. Derek: Well he shouldn't have tried to turn back. The group is going up you go with the group. Okay, drill, please. George: He panicked. You have a right to turn back if you're scared. Derek: No, you don't. You chose to climb a mountain. You can't change your mind in the middle of the climb. Derek: Okay. George: Now we pull it out? Derek: Ah, yeah, but the axe went in as they fell, so there will be some tearing, it should be a shallow wound, and it should come out easily. You ready? George: Yup. Derek: All right everybody. Here we go. Ready? Okay, one, two...three. (The axe doesn't move) That's strange. One...two...Three! That's a clean cut. George: I thought you said there was gonna be tearing. Derek: I know. It doesn't make sense. George: You are a lucky guy. Derek: Yeah. Or the ax didn't go in there by accident. (Richard is talking with Burke in his office) Richard: It's probably unfair, but I hold you to a higher standard. And you let me down this year, Preston. After you got sht, the tremor...this job is about making the tough calls. Sometimes the toughest call you can make is admitting when you're in over your head. You don't do that. You know a lot, Preston. You're one of the best surgeons I know...one of the best men. But you're not perfect. You don't know everything. I want to give you the job. I want to. But I can't. Preston. Burke: I have a wedding to get to. Richard: Yeah. (Rina's OR) Addison: Thank you. Yeah, the babies are doing great. They're in the NICU. How are you doing up there, Preston? Burke: Close call, but she's sab. Addison: Good work, Dr. Burke. We may actually get you to the church on time. You nervous? Burke: No, not really. More, uh... excited. Addison: Hmm. Burke: Um, except about my vows. I wrote them myself, and...I don't know. They may be too...I want 'em to be right. Addison: Well, let's hear 'em. Burke: What, now? Addison: Hey, you've got a room full of women. Try it out on us. Burke: Cristina...I could promise...to hold you...and to cherish you. I could promise to be there in sickness and in health. I could say...till death do us part. But I won't. Those vows are for...optimistic couples, the ones full of hope. And I do not stand here on my wedding day optimistic or full of hope. Addison: Okay, um... Burke: I am not optimistic. I am not hopeful. I am sure. I am steady. And I know. I am a heart man. I take 'em apart. I put 'em back together. I hold them in my hands. I am a heart man. So of this I am sure...you are my partner...my lover...my very best friend. My heart, my heart...beats for you. And on this day, the day of our wedding, I promise you this...I promise you to lay my heart in the palm of your hands. I promise you... me. What too trite? Because I can rewrite it... Izzie: No. No. It's... Addison: I think I speak for...every woman in this room when I say dump her. Dump Yang and marry me. (George enters the on-call room where Callie is sleeping) George: Hey. Hey. Callie: Hey. Oh, god. Did I miss a page? George: No, no, no, no, no. Everything's okay. Callie: What? George: Is this really what you want? Cause if it's really what you want, we could do it. Callie: Really? George: Yeah. Callie: Okay, wait. Really? George: Really. Callie: Oh, my god. oh, my god. Really? (Alex walks into the NICU where Jeff is holding his new daughter) Jeff: She looks like Rebecca. Well, at least what Rebecca used to look like. But still... around the eyes. Alex: Yeah. Jeff: I thought I'd give her some space. She seemed a little overwhelmed. Alex: The ferry crash was on the news everywhere. Your wife goes missing... how could you not look for her? Jeff: I thought she left me. We got into a fight that night. She was trying to tell me how unhappy she was and... I shut her down. Yeah, I didn't look for her when she was missing, but what's worse is...I didn't see her when she was there. I can't imagine what it must have been like for her, what her face must have looked like all broken. Alex: She was beautiful. Jeff: I... I love her. You know? (Meredith is at a nurse's station and Cristina walks up) Cristina: Meredith. Meredith: Oh. You are not gonna believe...Derek met a girl... in a bar. And he flirted with her. And he told me. You know, no big deal. Just thought I should know. Cristina: Meredith. Meredith: I'm not exaggerating. He didn't even hint. He just flat out told me. Cristina: Meredith, you know how sometimes it's about you, and sometimes it's about me? This is really, really about me. (She turns around to look at Cristina) Meredith: Whoa. Cristina: Mama took my eyebrows. She took my eyebrows, and now I am a Burke. (Derek enters the room where Andy, Dale and Jack are) Derek: Lonnie's sab...but the damage he sustained is significant. Jack: But is he gonna wake up? Derek: Do you want him to? Dale: What? Derek: The axe in his head was put there deliberately. I just wanted to give you three guys another opportunity to tell me the truth. Andy: It wasn't... Jack: Shut up, Andy. Andy: But we can't just sit here... Jack: I said shut up, Andy. Derek: Is that how you let him talk to you at 14,000 feet? I have to talk to his family. You guys can talk to the cops. (Meredith and Cristina walk up to Bailey. She is staring at the bulletin where a note announces that Callie is the new chief resident) Meredith: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Yeah. What? Meredith: Cristina needs to cut something. I can't really explain it in a way that won't make you glare. But... they took her eyebrows and they called her a Burke. She really needs to cut somebody open. Bailey: Yang...go... do... getting married things. Get out of this hospital. Cristina: Hey! I mean... hey. I...you have to let me cut, because I am standing here eyebrowless with no dignity left. I am a surgeon, Dr. Bailey. But right now I don't feel like one. I feel... like...somebody else. Do you know what that's like, not to feel like yourself? Bailey: Yeah. (Addison enters Adele's room) Addison: What's going on? Richard: She started cramping and then she got really diaphoretic. Addison: Alert OB to a possible D&C due to an incomplete miscarriage. Adele, you could have a placental abruption due to the trauma. We've got to get you to into an OR wow. (Patricia enters Richard office) Patricia: Sir, Dr. Shepherd is here. Richard: Thank you. Derek: Richard, are you sure you want to...you don't have to do this today. Richard: Yes, I do. (Addison walks up to Richard in the waiting room) Addison: She went into early DIC I gave her blood, platelets, FFP, pregnancy at 52 is dangerous. I tried everything. I couldn't save... (Richard runs into the OR) Richard: I thought...I thought...for a second, I thought I'd lost you. Um...do you want to...call somebody? I can... Adele: No, no one. Richard: Well, the father of the baby, maybe you want to... Adele: He doesn't even know about it. I didn't tell him. I, um... I think I misjudged him. I thought he'd go running for the hills. But actually...He'll get over his initial judgments, and he'll...sit with you...and he'll make you drink your water. Richard: Adele... Adele: It was a boy. I'm sorry. (Derek enters Rina's OR where Burke is still operating) Derek: All right, Dr. Leonard, would you please close for Dr. Burke? He has a wedding to get to. (Bailey and Cristina are in the OR) Bailey: One cut, and then you're gone. One. (Rina's OR) Burke: But...but I still have to... Derek: Come on. You want your bride waiting for you at the altar? They don't like that. Let's go. (OR) Meredith: We gotta go now, Cristina. Bailey: Grey. Meredith: Put the scalpel down, Cristina. You can still do this, right? (Izzie enters the locker room where George) George: What? Izzie: Uh, hold on a minute. I just wanted to make sure no one's around so I can say this. George: I think we've said everything we need to say. Izzie: Shut up. I am an optimist. I am hopeful. I am not sure. George: Look, I can do this myself. Izzie: Let me speak. Because I'm your best friend and because I love you, if what you want is to be with Callie,. then I will do everything in my power to support you and help you make your marriage work But because I'm your best friend and because I love you...I also have to say...that I'm in love with you. I'm in love with you. I can't promise the future, I can't promise perfection because we're us and I'm me and who knows what will happen. But in my heart...I am sure. I'm in love with you, George. And I hope you're in love with me, too. Izzie: Say something. (Meredith and Cristina enter) Meredith: What time is it? Alex: You got 30 minutes. Cristina: Oh, crap. I'm gonna be late for my own wedding Meredith: No, we're not. (Derek enters Andy's room) Derek: Dr. Burke asked me to check on you. Let's see. Your, um...your post-op x-rays look good. We'll discuss releasing you. Andy: Any change in Lonnie? Lawyer: Andy? Derek: Who are you? Andy: He's my lawyer. Derek: That was fast. Andy: Don't you dare judge me. You weren't there. We thought...he was almost dad. No way he was gonna make it. He was in so much pain. So I...picked it up... Lawyer: Andy, shut up. Andy: No! I'm not gonna shut up. I put him out of his misery. And if I was back there right now...I'd do the same thing. He was my friend. He is my friend. I put him out of his misery. (The interns are all getting ready for the wedding) Alex: Anyone got any deodorant? Cristina: Um, you're not putting my deodorant in your hairy armpits. Izzie: Don't move. You're gonna have a unibrow. And I have some in my locker. George: Uh, closed? Open? Meredith: Closed. Perfect. Dashing. George: Thanks. Izzie: You look great. (Patricia enters) Patricia: Moment of truth, people. Alex: Those our scores? Patricia: Grey. Karev. Yang. Cristina: Thank you. Patricia: Stevens. O'Malley. Cristina: Yes! Alex: Right here, baby. Izzie: Yes. Thank god. Cristina Did you pass? Meredith: You bet your married booty, I did. Izzie: How'd you do? Did you pass? George: Yeah. I'll talk to you at the church. Izzie: Okay. Cristina: All right. Let's go. (Derek enters as the interns are leaving) Derek: Excuse me. Cristina: Meredith. Meredith: I'll meet you at the chapel. Iz, will you take the dress? Izzie: Yes. Okay. Meredith: I'll be right there. Izzie: Okay. (Alex enters Rebecca's room) Rebecca: I like the suit. The suit is way better than the scrubs. Alex: Thanks. Hey, uh, I passed my intern exam. Rebecca: Good! Alex: Yeah. Rebecca: That's good. We got discharged, me and the baby. Rebecca: My body's been signed off on by...plastics, cardio, orthopedics, neuro and OB, and my...and also, my teeth got a blessing from...wait, I can say this...prosthodontics. Alex: Yeah, but there's still your memory... Rebecca: You know how I know my memory's fine? Because I can say prosthodontics. Alex: Yeah, but the baby... Rebecca: Discharged, by peds. Alex: Yeah, but... Rebecca: I have every reason to go. And...and yeah, I'm scared. And yeah, this is...this is moving at warp speed. And yeah, I'm freaking out, but Jeff is good. And...and Jeff is the father of my child. The man is out buying a car seat right now. And the minute he gets back...I...I have every reason to go, because medically... there's no need for me to stay. Medically. Alex: Oh. Yeah. Okay. Well, then I'll just check the chart. Rebecca: Damn it. Alex: We got, uh... what? Rebecca: Are you...do I...do I have to spell everything out for you? I mean, did...did you sniff too much glue as a child? I'm asking you something here. Alex: What do you want from me? Rebecca: I want...I want you to give me a reason to stay...a real reason. I mean, Jeff's...Jeff's a decent guy, a good, decent guy. But to him, I'm Rebecca, and I don't know if I am Rebecca anymore and...you know me. You knew...you knew when I couldn't even speak who I was. You...you named me Ava, and I was more me as Ava then I'll ever be as Rebecca. Look, I...I have every reason to go back to my life. And I will. Unless...you...Alex, I'm asking you to give me a reason to stay here...a reason from you. Alex: Jeff loves you. He's A...he's a decent guy. Rebecca: Alex, give me a reason. Alex: I think you should stick with the decent guy. (Derek and Meredith are in the locker room) Meredith: If you want to break up with me so you can see other women, just do it. Don't tell me you met another woman. Just end it if that's what you want. Derek: I can't. Meredith: Sure you can. Here's how it goes...Meredith, I don't want to see you anymore. Meredith, I don't love you anymore. Derek: Meredith...I do love you. Don't you see? Don't you understand? You're the love of my life. I can't leave you. But you're constantly leaving me. You walk away when you want, you come back when you want. Not everyone, not your friends, but you leave me. So I'm asking you...if you don't see a future for us, if you aren't in this...please...please just end it, because I can't. I'm in it. Put me out of my misery. Meredith: I...I can't. I...I...Cristina is getting married. I have to go make sure she gets married. Derek: Meredith... Meredith: I really need to make sure she gets down that aisle. Derek: Let's go. We're running late. (Derek and Burke are waiting in the chapel) Burke: You okay? Derek: I'm fine. I'm fine. You need anything? Need a mint, huh? A getaway car? Burke: If it's the chief thing, don't worry about it. You deserve it. Derek: Richard didn't pick me to be chief. Burke: We all assumed you...well, who did he pick? Derek: I don't know. It wasn't me. Burke: You really don't...look so good. Derek: Meredith and I may not make it. I think I want it more than she does. But today's your day. It's all about you today. Burke: You really are a good best man. Derek: I try. (Meredith is in the hall and knocking on the door to the bridal dressing room) Meredith: Cristina. Cristina? Cristina: I didn't run. Helen: Oh! -You look beautiful. I'm proud of you. Cristina: Thank you. Helen: Frankly, I always feared you were too emotionally stunted to settle down. Meredith: You can do this. (Alex sits down next to Addison in the chapel) Addison: I've always found it confusing. If you know both the bride and the groom, which side do you sit on? Alex: I just look for the hottest chick in the room and sit next to her. Addison: Stop. Alex: Wanna ditch the reception, grab a drink instead? Addison: Stop it. You don't want me. Alex: Maybe I do. Addison: No, you don't. You want Ava. Alex: She's not Ava anymore. She's Rebecca now, and I barely know her. Addison: Look at me. Look at me. You suck. To me, you suck. I kind of...hate you. But, Alex, we not get unlimited chances to have the things we want. And this I know...nothing is worse than missing an opportunity that could've changed your life. And no matter what her name is, she'll always be Ava to you. (George walks over to Bailey who is sitting on a bench outside of the hospital) George: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: You didn't go to the wedding either. George: No. Bailey: I am...so sorry, George. George: So, um...what do I do now? Bailey: You fail your intern test, you have two options. You can...walk away from being a surgical resident altogether, or you can start from the very beginning. George: Repeat my internship? No. I can't. I can't. Bailey: Did I...did I fail you, George? George: No. No. I failed you. (Izzie is peaking into the chapel when Alex rushes out) Izzie: Ooh. It looks so pretty in there. I see Burke. Alex: Yang...the twins looks nice in that dress. Cristina: Thank you. Sort of. Alex: I gotta go. I gotta check... Callie: Oh, you're on call? Izzie: Oh, wait, Alex, Did you see George in there? I don't see him. Callie: He's, uh...probably gonna be late. We had kind of a big, emotional day. Izzie: Oh, really? Callie: Yeah. Izzie: Did something happen between you two? I mean... Callie: No. It's just that I was named chief resident. Plus we decided to have a baby, so... Izzie: A baby? Callie: Yeah, we're trying. We tried today, in fact. Izzie: Wow. Callie: Yeah. Big day. (The wedding march starts playing) Meredith: Okay, this is it. Okay? Cristina: Yeah. Meredith: You have the bouquet. Cristina: Yeah. Meredith: I have the ring. Cristina: Yeah. Meredith: You remember your vows? Cristina: Yeah. I wrote them on my... Meredith: Okay. Cristina: Oh, my god I scrubbed in. I scrubbed in, and the vows were on my hand. I scrubbed off my vows. Meredith: Oh, okay. Um... Cristina: Okay, hello? I...I scrubbed off my vows. I...I can't...I can't do this. I don't have any...I don't have anything on my hand! (Inside the chapel) Derek: I should go see what's going on. Burke: Well, Cristina wouldn't be Cristina if she didn't need a little push. (In the hallway) Cristina: There are no words in my head. Okay? I have no vows. No vows. Meredith: It's okay. It's going to be okay. Cristina: You know what? Stop saying that! Will you say something else? Meredith: Like what? Cristina: Say something that is gonna help me. Meredith: Okay, okay! I... Cristina: Meredith, please. You know what? Say something. Say...you know what? I don't know what. Say...say...okay. Say what I would say to you if you were me. Meredith: Okay. Cristina: Good. Meredith: Got it. Cristina: Good, go. Meredith: Stop whining. This is your wedding day. You will go down that aisle and you will get married. If I have to kick your ass every step of the way to get you there, you will walk down the aisle. You will get married. Do you hear me, Cristina? We need this. We need you to get your happy ending. Cristina: Okay, I'm ready. Meredith: All right, then. Cristina: My train. (Inside the chapel) Burke: I'll go. (Burke walks down the aisle towards the hallway) Cristina: Oh. I'm ready. I'm fine. I...Meredith talked me down. Really, I'm fine. Go, go, go. I'll be right behind you. Burke: I'm sorry. Cristina: Oh...I can do this. You know, I had a momentary freak out, but now I'm fine. I can do this. Go. Burke: But you don't want to do this. I'm up there waiting for you to come down the aisle, and I knew you don't want to come. I know you don't want to come but that you'll come anyway because you love me. And if I loved you...if I loved you, not the woman that I'm trying to make you be, not the woman that I hope you'll become, but you...if I did...I wouldn't be up there waiting for you. I would be letting you go. Cristina: I am wearing the dress. I'm ready. And...and maybe I didn't want to before, but I want to now. I really think I want this. Burke: And I really wish that you didn't think. I wish that you knew. (Meredith enters the chapel and walks to the front) Meredith: It's over. You can all go home. It's over. It's so over. (Joe and Walter are holding the twin babies. Adele and Richard walk past and smile. Alex goes to Ava's room but she is already gone) (Meredith enters Cristina's apartment where she is crying) Cristina: He's gone. Meredith: I...I...I don't think he's gone. Uh, his stuff is here. Cristina: No, it isn't. His trumpet was here. His entire Eugene Foote collection...vinyl's and cd's...his grandmother's picture was by the bed. His lucky scrub cap was hanging on the door. He's gone. I'm...I'm free. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Damn it. Oh, god. Get this off me. Take this off! Take this off! Please, just...I can't...help me, help me, help me! (Meredith literally cuts the wedding dress off of Cristina and then she breaks down into Meredith's arms) (Izzie is sitting in the chapel and Callie is watching her from afar) (A new group of interns enter the locker room where George is packing his things) Male Intern 1: Ah, nice. Male Intern 2: Do we get assigned lockers here or what? Male Inter 1: Dude, it stinks in here. Female Intern 2: What do you want? It's a locker room. Male Intern 1: No, it's our locker room. Male Intern 2: You guys, look, bloody scrubs. George: Hi. Male Intern 1: Hi. Male Intern 2: Come on, you guys. Let's, um, let's go check out the cafeteria. Male Intern 1: Yeah. (The interns leave except for one. She is the woman who was talking to Derek in the bar the night before) Female Intern 2: Hey. George: Hi. Female Intern 2: We're the new interns. George: Yeah. Female Intern 2: Well, you look seasoned and wise. Um...got any advice? George: No. Learn how to do an appendectomy start to finish before your first day. Female Intern 2: You're leaving? George: Yeah. Female Intern 2: Better offer? George: Just, uh...you know, life. Female Intern 2: Yeah. Anyways, uh, good luck with...life, doctor... George: My name is George. Female Intern 2: I'm Lexie. Lexie Grey. (Derek is in Richard's office) Richard: Congratulations. You'll make a fine chief. Derek? Derek: I'm not the best man for this job. You're the best man for this job. Richard: What are you talking about, Derek? Derek: A good chief learns from his mistakes. I'm still working on that. But you...if you had a chance to do it all over again, you'd do it differently. Go ahead. Do it all over again. Be the best man.

GREY'S ANATOMY 4x01: A Change is Gonna Come Original Airdate: 9/27/2007 Written by: Shonda Rhimes Directed by: Rob Corn Provided by TVTDB.com (Seattle scenes) (Richard sits at his desk) MVO: In the practice of medicine, change is inevitable. New surgical techniques are created, procedures are updated, levels of expertise increase. (George enters the locker room with the new interns) MVO: Innovation is everything. Nothing remains the same for long. We either adapt to change...or we get left behind. (Cristina's interns walk up to her) Cristina: I have five rules. Memorize them. Rule number one, don't bother sucking up, I already hate you. That's not gonna change. (Izzie is with her interns at a nurse's station) Izzie: Trauma protocols, phone lists, pagers. The nurses will page you. You answer every page at a run...a run. That's rule number two. You're supposed to follow me. (Alex is walking through the hall with his interns) Alex: Your first shift starts now and lasts 36 hours. You're grunts, nobodies, the bottom of the surgical food chain. You run labs, you write orders, you work every second night until you drop, and you don't complain. (Meredith is showing her interns the on-call rooms) Meredith: On call rooms. Sleep when you can, where you can. You know, but not with anybody. Not attendings...especially not attendings. Sleeping with attendings...not a good idea. Where was I? George: Um, rule number three. If you're sleeping, do not wake you unless a patient's actually dying. (Cristina is showing her interns the on-call rooms) Cristina: The dying patient better not be dad when I get there, because not only will you have klled someone, you will have woken me for no good reason. Are we clear? (Lexie raises her hand) Yes? Lexie: That was four rules. You said five. Cristina: Rule number five...when I move, you move. (They all stand there) Go! (Alex, Izzie, Cristina and Meredith are in the deserted hallway hangout) Cristina: I hate them. Meredith: You don't hate them. You hate you. Izzie: That was hideous. I feel like a fraud. Alex: I rocked it. I think I'm the new nzi. Cristina: Oh, you are not the new nzi. (George enters) George: Meredith, I need to talk to you. Izzie: George. Hi. George: Hey. Izzie: How was your vacation? George: Um, fine. Um, Meredith, can we... Izzie: Cause mine was... I didn't do much. I hung out alone...for 17 days. Which is the last time that I saw you, the day of Cristina's wedding, which was...well...then Mer and Cristina went on Cristina's honeymoon without me. Alex: Girl-on-girl honeymoon. Izzie: And then Alex took a road trip to see Ava without me. Alex: I did not go to see Ava. And her name's Rebecca. And I didn't go see her. I just drove in that direction. Cristina: Oh, why is everyone so tingly and hurt? I mean, I'm the one who was left at the altar. I'm fine, by the way. I honeymooned in Hawaii and I snorkeled. Izzie: What'd you do, George? George: Um, Meredith...I...I really need to talk to you. (Interns enter the hallway) Cristina: Uh, hey, you want to know...hey, um, this is for residents only. No interns. Meredith: Yeah. Izzie: Yeah, get outta here. Alex: Babies. Izzie: Yeah, go away. Alex: 007's in training. Cristina: Seriously. George: I guess I should be going, too. Meredith: No, george.We didn't mean you. George: No, I'm an intern. Meredith: Wait. What did you want to tell me? Cristina: Uh, is this how it's gonna be all year? Because Bambi has got to learn how to cope. Izzie: At least he came back. Meredith: Yeah, cut him some slack. Alex: Dude, he failed his exam and got left back in kindergarten. Cristina: Mm-hmm. Izzie: He won't even look at me. Meredith: Have you seen Burke? Cristina: No. Have you seen Derek? Meredith: No. Izzie: Wait, you haven't seen either of them since the wedding? Cristina: Nope. Izzie: And you're all fine? Meredith: Yep Izzie: Wow...You're either incredibly healthy or completely messed up. (Bailey walks up the desk where Derek is standing) Derek: Your interns are back from holiday today. Bailey: Uh, not my interns. They're residents. I'm free. Derek: Right. Well...here,nurse. The point is, uh, Dr. Yang. The Burke thing...she doesn't know. I'm supposed to tell her. Burke asked me to tell her. Any thoughts? Bailey: Honesty always works best. Derek: Yeah, that's true. You want to get together for a drink after work tonight? Bailey: Why? Derek: Well, I don't know. I just thought it might be a good idea to get together and have Bailey: Oh, you don't have anybody to talk to. Derek: No, I have people to talk to. Bailey: Addison is gone, Burke isn't around, and you and Grey aren't smelling each other in the elevators anymore. Derek: I have people to talk to. Bailey: Who? Derek: I have...chief. I...I have the chief to talk to. Hey, chief. Want to get together for a drink after work? Richard: I don't drink. Dr. Bailey, we need to talk. Bailey: We have traumas coming in. Richard: You're avoiding me. We need to talk. Bailey: About you choosing Dr. Torres to be your chief resident over me? Respectfully, no, sir. We're not going to talk about that. (Mark walks up) Mark: Someone mention a drink later? Cause I'm in. Derek: Nobody mentioned a drink. Richard: You mentioned a drink. Derek: I did not mention a drink. (Richard enters the ER) Richard: All right, people. We've got three MVC'S rolling in back-to-back from a multi car pileup. We need every trauma room open and everyone suited up. Callie: Is there anything I...I should do, sir? Richard: Save lives. Callie: No. I mean as, uh, chief resident. Anything in particular? Richard: Make sure your residents run their traumas. This is their first day on their own. Where...are the residents you've assigned to this ER? Callie: Oh. Oh, I, uh, I, uh, I paged them. I...I paged them. Bailey? Bailey: What? Callie: Uh, I, uh, paged, uh, Grey, Yang, Stevens and Karev, but they're not here yet. Bailey: When I page 'em, they come running. Richard: Get it together, Torres. Callie: Yes, sir. (Richard walks away) Bailey: Okay, you did not have to say that in front of the chief. Bailey: You asked...boss. (The interns are in the hall outside the ER) Meredith: There's Derek. Cristina: Is Burke with him? Meredith: I don't see him. (They enter the ER) Callie: Where have you been? We have multiple MVC'S due any second. Alex: We're here, aren't we? We're here. Callie: Just...just get ready, okay? And monitor your interns. (Cristina points to her interns) Cristina: Okay, one, two, go get stat packs. Uh, three, four, go meet the ambulances. Meredith: "One and two"? Cristina: No, I can't remember their names. (George raises his hand) George: I don't respond to being called a number. Meredith: George, go wait for the ambulance. The rest of you come with me. (Alex talks to his interns) Alex: All right, you guys stand against the wall and out of the way unless I call for you. (Izzie talks to her interns) Izzie: Okay, this is what's called a trauma situation. So there's gonna be lots of activity and a lot of patients, so if you guys have any questions at all, just ask, okay? (Izzie walks away but overhears her interns) Male Intern: I heard she, like, freaked out and klled a guy and had to go on probation. Female Intern: Great. We're stuck with a dud. (Lexie and George are in the ambulance bay) Lexie: So, hey, you're an intern...again. George: Yeah. Lexie: I won't tell anybody. The other interns, I won't... George: That's...that's okay. Lexie: Do you know which one is Meredith Grey? George: Yeah, I haven't, uh, told her you're here yet. I was going to... Lexie: So you know who I am? George: Yeah, I know who you are. Lexie: What's she like? I...I mean, is she nice? 'Cause...cause my dad, he won't...he won't tell me. Is she...she... (The other residents enter the bay including Bailey) Bailey: Uh, Grey, don't let them just stand here. Meredith: Let's move, people. (The ambulance arrives) Ambulance Driver: Unrestrained driver, DOA at the scene. Just need someone to pronounce him. Cristina: Oh,crap. dad guy. Why'd you get me all excited with the sirens? Okay, who wants to see a dad guy? (Other ambulance) Ambulance Driver 2: Nancy Walters, 34 years old, weeks pregnant. Complete upper arm amputation. Pressure dressings applied. Two large bore IVs started. Nancy: Did he say "arm"? My arm is gone? Bailey: Miss Walters, you're gonna be okay. Grey, check the wound. Nancy: I really need my arm. (Another ambulance) Ambulance Driver 2: 45-year-old male, sustained a knee injury. Joey: That guy, the guy that's dad, he ht a deer, and then the lady ht him, and then I ht the lady. Callie: Knee is blwing up like a balloon. Joey: Hey, I'm hungry. Can I get something to eat? Cristina: Okay, everybody get a good look? Time of death...8:22. (The man breathes) Cristina: Not time of death. This guy is not dad. Ambulance Driver: He was dad. Cristina: Well, he's not dad now. Let's bag him. Okay,we've got a...we've got a guy who's risen from the dad over here. Meredith: Get outta the way! Lexie: Are...are you Meredith Grey? Meredith: Yeah. Lexie: I...I'm Lexie. Meredith: Great. Move. Lexie: Lexie Grey. I'm...I'm your sister. (Nancy's trauma room) Meredith: That girl out there, the dopey, wide-eyed one? Apparently we're related. George: Oh, you...you met Lexie? Meredith: Oh, you knew. Knew about it and didn't tell me, huh? George: I've...kind of had a lot going on. (Izzie and her interns enter) Izzie: This is trauma room one. As you can see, it's...there's a trauma. Hey, guys, do you need some help? Please tell me you need some help. Meredith: It's a little crowded in here already, Iz. (Mark enters) Mark: What do you got for me? Meredith: Uh, Nancy Walters. Complete amputation. George: The baby looks fine, but she's having some contractions. Mark: Hi, Nancy. I'm Dr. Sloan. You mind if I take a look? Izzie: It's a clean cut. Mark: You want to rub up against me, you gotta buy me a drink first. Hang antibiotics and put on a sterile, moist dressing. There's a chance at a good recovery here. Do we have an arm? Meredith: They're looking for it Nancy: My baby has no father. He's already down two arms. So he really needs me to have an arm. Mark: Get me that arm. (Callie's trauma room) Callie: Okay, somebody set up for a traumatic effusion drainage. Joey: Ah... Callie: And order him 4 of morphine. Alex: She means one of you morons. Get her an 18 gauge needle and a 20 cc syringe and the damn morphine. Joey: Hey, uh, morphine's cool, but I'd kll for something to eat. Callie: A healthy appetite after a trauma like this? That's a very good sign, Joey. Alex: You think he'll need surgery? Callie: That depends on the x-rays. Knee looks good. No surgery. (While Alex and Callie are looking at the x-rays, Joey starts eating cotton balls) (Cristina's trauma room) Izze: Okay. This is Cristina...Dr. Yang. She's working. Cristina: Yep, saving lives and taking names. Izzie: So...I have these interns and nothing to do. And, uh, I think I'm a really bad teacher. And I think they hate me. And now I'm a fraud. So any chance you wanna let me in on this? Please. Cristina: Izzie, this guy was dad, and now he's undead. So that kinda makes him like a zombie my personal zombie. So no, you can't get in on this. Now go be A...fraud somewhere else. Izzie: I don't like you. Cristina: Mm-hmm. Izzie: Let's go, people. (Lexie enters) Lexie: Excuse me. Cristina: You know, where have you been? I've been waiting for these. Lexie: I got...I was...I met my sister, uh, for the first time ever... Cristina: Oh, hey. Lexie: Which, uh, got me, you know, weird. So then I got, um, lost on my way to x-ray 'cause I was all in my head, you know, about...about meeting Meredith. Cristina: Meredith is your...is your sister? Lexie: Meredith Grey. Lexie Grey. We're half sisters. So you know her? Cristina: Oh, we need to page Dr. Shepherd. Lexie: Dr.Shepherd. He...he's the, um...neurosurgeon? Cristina: Okay, somebody page Derek shepherd right freakin' now. (Derek walks up to where Meredith is on the phone) Meredith: Grey. Thank you. Seattle grace. Thank you. Derek: Hi. How are you? Meredith: I have a patient with a severed arm and no one seems to be able to find it. Have you seen it? Derek: Your severed arm? No, I haven't seen a severed arm. (Lexie walks up) Lexie: Meredith, how...hey, um, I'm...I'm so sorry about before. I just was so nervous about meeting you. Don't block the ER doors. I know that now. That was a good lesson. Derek: You're the girl from the bar. Lexie: Sorry? Derek: The girl from the bar? Lexie: Oh, my god. Yeah. Oh, my god. Yeah. Derek: Yeah. Lexie: Oh, my god. You...you work here. Derek: Yeah, I do. Meredith: Girl from the bar? Derek: Mm-hmm. Meredith: I'm the girl from the bar. (Meredith storms away) Lexie: Uh...she hates me. My sister hates me. Derek: Meredith is your sister? Lexie: My half sister, yeah. Hey, uh, you're Dr. Shepherd. Derek: That's right. Lexie: I'm...I'm supposed to be finding you for a consult. (Callie and George are in the x-ray room) Callie: Hey. There you are. I missed you this morning. George: Yeah, I didn't want to be late for my second first day as an intern. Callie: Maybe you can look at it like this...you have one up on everyone. You're gonna be, like, the rock star intern. George: Yeah, I'm sure that's how everyone's gonna see me when they find out. Or maybe they'll see you as the daddy intern. George: What? What...what did you just say? Callie: Oh...I'm not...I'm not pregnant. I just...I mean, I might be pregnant. Yeah, my boobs are a little sore, which...Hey, I'm trying to cheer you up here, George. This is...I mean, if I am knocked up, that's a good thing, right? George: Callie, I'm just a little distracted. I'm having a bad day. Callie: Okay, you're having a bad month. George: Okay, I'm having a bad month. Callie: Love you. (Michael and Chris enter the ER) Michael: Help! We need doctors. Help! Chris: Inside voice. Uh, we found an arm in the road. Meredith: Here, I bagged that...that's my arm. Michael: Dad, dad, tell them she's hurt! Dad, come on. Tell the doctor! Tell 'em she's hurt. Male Intern: Uh, any way we can go with the severed arm? Michael: She's in the truck, and she's hurt. Izzie: Is that your blood? Are you hurt? Michael: She's in our truck, and she's not moving. She's bleeding really bad. Izzie: There's another crash victim. We're gonna need gloves, IVs, gauze, ab pads, trauma gowns. Still want to baby-sit the arm? Michael: Come on Chris: Michael! (They get to the truck to find a deer inside) Female Intern: No way. Michael: Is she dad? Izzie: Michael, this is a hospital, and I'm a people doctor. I... Michael: Can you save her? Chris: Michael, come on. Izzie: I'm sorry, but she's... Female Intern: Roadkill. Michael: She opened her eyes. Look. She's still alive! Izzie: Oh, god. Don't look at me like that. Or like that. Chris: Michael, let's go back to the truck Come on.. Michael: Please. Izzie: Oh, okay, all right. All right. Uh, I'm gonna need a jumbo catheter, a 16 gauge needle, the biggest ambu bag you can find and something that shaves fur. What's the matter with you people? When I say move, you move. Move! (Derek and Cristina are in the trauma room viewing room) Derek: Back of his skull is completely disconnected from his first cervical vertebrae. Cristina: He's been internally decapitated. Holy crap. Derek: Yeah, 90% of these die in the field. Lexie: And the other 10%? Derek: I've never seen one live. Lexie: There's always a first time, though, right? I mean, he came back from the dad. Derek: Henry, I'm Dr. Shepherd. The back of your skull is disconnected from your spine. I'm gonna try and reconnect it in surgery. Do you understand me? Blink once for yes, twice for no. (He blinks twice) Derek: Okay, good. I know it's scary, but I promise you, I'm gonna do everything I can. Do you have family? All right. We're gonna contact them, okay? All right, let's get him in a halo. Cristina: Uh-huh. Derek: Contact his family. Find out if he's an organ donor. (Alex is in Joey's room with his interns) Alex: You, finish up with the splint, then get him up on crutches. (Callie enters) Callie: Hey. How's Joey? Alex: It's a hungry hippo missing a kneecap. Can't you assign me something good? Callie: I don't switch out patients, Karev. Alex: But it's not even surgical. It's a waste of my skills. Callie: You're staying here with Joey. Alex: Come on. Callie: No! Alex: Fine. I'm going to Bailey Callie: You are a resident. You go where I say. (Meredith is in Kathy's room) Kathy: My arm is gone. Meredith: We have the arm, and Dr. Sloan is checking right now to see if we can reattach it. Is there someone we can call? Kathy: There's no...no, I just...I just moved here. I'm all...I'm all by myself. There's no one. I have no one. Meredith: Well, Dr. Sloan should be here any minute. Kathy: I wanted a kid and...I was sick of waiting for the right guy, so...in my family...in my family, you don't go out and get pregnant. So now I'm alone and...I'm having a baby, and I don't have a father for the baby, and I don't have an arm. Meredith: It's okay. Here's Dr. Sloan. (Mark enters) Mark: Nancy...I'm happy to report that your arm is in good shape. Dr. Grey here is gonna clean it up a little, and...and I'm gonna put that arm back where it belongs, okay? Kathy: Okay. Mark: Okay. (Izzie is in the truck working on the deer) Izzie: We got a 150-pound female with...lacerations on the chest and haunches, short, fast breaths. Any recommendations? Chris: Uh, doctor, Michael's a big boy. He doesn't need you to perform make-believe medicine, right, Michael? Michael: It's not make-believe. She can help. Chris: Michael, enough. I apologize. We're just wasting your time. Female Intern: No kidding. Chris: Michael. Michael: Please don't let her die. Chris: Michael, it is a deer. We're gonna take her home and skin her and freeze the meat, okay? Michael: What? Why?! Chris: Because that's what you do. You don't try and save 'em. You eat 'em. Michael: No, dad. The doctor can save her. Chris: No, she can't. Izzie: You don't know that. Chris: My son needs to learn to grow up and face things. Izzie: You're right. I am not helping him. I'm helping Bambi. So get me the ambu bag and the saline. I'm starting an IV. Michael: Thank you. (Meredith is cleaning up Kathy's arm when Cristina enters) Cristina: Still no sign of Burke. Oh, you've got a severed arm. Meredith: My arm. Mine. Get away from it. Cristina: Maybe he's not on today. Meredith: Maybe you should just see him and get it over with. Cristina: No, no, no, no. If I never see him again, I won't care. Meredith: Well, I've seen Derek, and Derek has seen me. Cristina: And? Meredith: Awkward. Plus he seems to know Lexie. Cristina: And? Meredith: More awkward. Your intern is my half sister. How weird is that? (Izzie enters) Izzie: Well, I'm trying to save Bambi's life. My interns think I'm a loser. Severed arm. (Alex enters) Alex: Callie's a bitch. Izzie: Word. Alex: She won't let me off my patient, and there's nothing wrong with him except he's a nut job. Severed arm. Izzie: Does anybody know anything about deer? Alex: They taste good. Izzie: Evil. (George opens the door but remains in the hall) Cristina: Oh, George, severed arm. Plus Mer's half sister is my intern, Izzie is playing Dr. Dolittle, oh, and Alex hates your wife. George: Dr. Sloan's ready for the arm. Meredith: I'll say it. George is being an ass. Izzie: I think it's my fault. I said some things, and now he's not talking to me. Alex: I don't know what he's got to complain about. Those new chick interns are hot. Cristina: He's married, Alex. Izzie: Yeah, he's married. Alex: You know who's seriously hot? That Lexie girl. Meredith: Get out...before I hurt you. Alex: I'm going over Callie's head to bailey. Cristina: Uh, Callie is over bailey's head. Meredith: Spiritually, Bailey's over everyone's head. (Richard and Bailey are in the ambulance bay) Richard: Dr. Bailey. How are things going? Bailey: I wouldn't know. Ask Dr. Torres. Richard: Miranda... Bailey: I don't want to talk. Richard: Miranda, it is not like you not to want to talk. Bailey: Fine. How's your wife? Richard: Well, she's...she's...good. I haven't moved back in yet. She hasn't let me move back in yet. She's not taking my calls. Wait. That's not what I want to talk to you about. I want to talk about chief resident. Now we're gonna have this conversation. Bailey: Are you ordering me to stand here and talk to you about this, chief? Richard: No, I'm not ordering you. But I just thought we could... Bailey: Okay, then. Good-bye, sir. (Cristina and Derek are at a nurse's station) Cristina: I talked to the family they're on their way. Derek: Good. I put an entire OR on hold. We don't have much time. Cristina: Uh, can I get a progress note? Derek: Uh, do you maybe want to have a drink later? Cristina: What? Derek: A drink. Give me one reason why we can't hang out. Cristina: I don't like you. Derek: You don't like me because of Meredith? Cristina: I don't like you because you're you. Derek: Hmm. How is Meredith, by the way? Is she okay? Cristina: She's fine. Derek: She's always fine. That's her problem. Cristina: We're fine people. We do fine. We're fine. How's Dr. Burke? I haven't seen him around. Is...is he off today? Derek: Here. Dr. Burke handed in his letter of resignation two weeks ago. He wanted me to tell you. Cristina: He's gone? Derek: I'm sorry. Cristina: Well, don't be. I'm... Derek: Fine? Cristina: Yeah. (Alex notices Izzie on the computer) Alex: Circulatory system of a deer? Izzie: Shut up. Alex: Oh, Dr. Bailey. Uh, couldn't you use an extra set of hands in the OR today? I saw an appy on the board. I'm...I'm great at appys. Bailey: Talk to Torres. She's in charge of what cases you get now. (Callie enters) Callie: It's hard to set a shattered kneecap when your patient's in the pit, don't you think? Alex: Whatever. (Alex storms out) Callie: I don't know how you did it. Bailey: Did what? Callie: Get 'em to listen to you, to give you some respect. (Callie leaves) Izzie: Hey, Dr. Bailey, you wouldn't happen to know anything about, uh, the anatomy of a deer? Bailey: Not my intern, not my business, not anymore. (Cristina is in the hall with Henry's family) Cristina: Your husband's injuries are s-severe. Uh, they're traumatic in the extreme. Wife: I'm sorry. What does that mean? Cristina: The only thing holding his head on to his body is skin and muscle. If he moves even a fraction of an inch, it could kll him. Wife: So are you saying that the... Cristina: I'm...I'm saying that when you see him, this could be the last time...this could be the last time you see him alive. (They enter the room) Wife: Are you in pain, sweetie? Good. Two blinks...you aren't in pain. Daughter: Why isn't daddy answering? Wife: Just...right now we just need to wish daddy good luck in his surgery and tell him how much we love him. Okay? Cause we do. I love you so much, Henry. (He blinks three times) What's...what's three blinks? Cristina: Uh, we've only been working with one and two. Wife: Is it "I love you"? Are you telling us you love us? Three blinks is I love you. We're gonna be fine, Henry. You're gonna make it, and we're all gonna be just fine. Derek: It's time to go. Wife: Okay, guys. Let's let these doctors fix daddy up. (His daughter walks over and blinks three times) (Izzie runs into George in the stairwell) Izzie: George. George. Why are you avoiding me? George: I'm on my way to surgery. Izzie: No, I don't mean right now. I mean, not one word in 17 days? I tell you that I love you, and not one word? Where have you been? George: I've been right here. You know where? Exactly where I was a year ago. I'm sorry. I...I'm freaking out. I'm an intern again. Izzie: Yeah, we're all freaking out. We're all freaking out. I'm in charge of a group of interns who think I'm crazy. And I might actually be crazy, because day one of me being in charge, and I'm obsessed with rescuing Bambi. We're all freaking out. George: Since when did you start calling me Bambi? Izzie: What? I'm not calling you Bambi. George: No, I mean, I know I...I...I under...I expect it from Cristina or Alex, but... Izzie: I'm Bambi. I'm Bambi, George, okay? If anyone in this situation is a sad little cartoon character, it's me. I'm all alone in the forest...all alone in the forest, George...and my mother's been sht by a hunter, and where are you? Where the hell are you? George: I'm on my way to surgery. (Mark enters the scrub room where Derek is) Mark: I really am up for a drink, you know? If you, uh, need to talk. Derek: What would I need to talk about? Mark: Meredith. You were lucky, man. That girl jerked you around. Derek: You have no idea what you're talking about. Mark: Hey, I'm just...seemed like you could use a friend about now. Derek: Meredith's mother never wanted her, and her father was never man enough to hang around. She has a right to be damaged, and us, together, it's a big step for her. Her best friend gets left on the altar, and all she sees now is things like this, they don't work. She panics. She wants this. She doesn't know how to have it. And you know what? That's not her fault. So don't ever talk to me about Meredith Grey again, because you do not know what you're talking about. And I don't need a friend. Mark and Meredith are in Nancy's OR[/i]) Doctor: Okay, Nancy, I want you to count back from a hundred, okay? Nancy: No. No. I'm not ready. Meredith: It's just like going to sleep. Nancy: I can't do any of this alone. I don't want to be alone anymore. Meredith: I know. Nancy: No, I'm scared. Meredith: I know. Nancy: I am scared, Meredith. Nancy: I know. Meredith: I think it's very brave, what you're doing. It's much better to be alone and feel like a success than to be in a relationship and feel like a failure all the time, right? Nancy: That's what I think. Meredith: So let's just take care of your arm, and then we'll deal with the rest later, okay? (Alex enters Joey's room) Alex: Well, it looks like I'm back to babysitting. What the hell? Who took my clamps and the bandage scissors? (Joey starts choking) Alex: Joey? There's a foreign body. His abdomen's rigid. Somebody page Dr. Bailey right now. Come on, Joey. (Outside at the truck) Chris: You like hamburgers, don't you? Michael: Yeah. Chris: And spaghetti with meatballs, and lasagna? Michael: Mm-hmm. Chris: That's beef. That's cow you're eating, son. Michael: What do you mean? Izzie: Could we have the "circle of life" lesson later? I need to get in here. Male Intern: Sorry. Izzie: Her eyes are glassy. You, get in here and ventilate. We're losing her. Chris: This is absolutely childish and ridiculous. Izzie: No, it's not. It's not childish to hold on to hope. It's actually hard...very, very hard. Your son just wants to believe that some things can work out for the best. Get me the paddles. Come on, come on, come on. Male Intern: What's she doing? Female Intern: Insuring we never see the inside of an OR this year? Izzie: She's in v-fib. I'm gonna shock. Charge to 300 and stand back. Okay, clear. (She shocks the deer which jumps up) Oh, my god. Oh, my god. She's alive? It worked. She's okay. Everything's gonna be okay. Oh, my god. (Kathy's OR) Mark: Got a big bleeder. Dr. Grey, press and hold right here. George: She's having contractions. Meredith: Well, take a look, George. Probably the stress. George: No, these are strong, and they're two minutes apart. Mark: Call OB and get someone in here. George: Uh, I don't think there's time to call OB. Her water just broke, and she's crowning. Mark: Call peds. Get a warmer in here. George: This baby's coming now. Mark: O'Malley, get her up in stirrups. George: Can we put her in a reverse trendelenburg, have one of the nurses press her abdomen since she can't push? Mark: Try it without all the jostling. I'm holding on to a major artery here. George: Okay, clamp. Scissors. I got it. I got him. Meredith: Great job, George. George: Thanks. Mark: Yeah, yeah, we're all heroes. Now if no one minds, I'd like to get this woman's arm sewn on. Like she said, she's gonna need it. (Henry's OR) Derek: I'm starting the fusion now. Lexie: Did he just move? Cristina: Oh, he...he definitely moved. Derek: The anesthesia's light. Yang, s*ab his neck. Cristina: Okay, three, come and grab his feet. Go under the drape and do not contaminate the sterile field. Derek: We need to keep him very still until he is under. We can't risk even the slightest movement. Cristina: You cannot move. Do you hear me? This is not an option. Everything is not gonna be fine if you move. It will be the opposite of fine. You cannot leave the people you love. They need you. Not just the memory that you love them. (Callie enters Joey's OR) Callie: Anyone care to explain to me how my patient wound up in this OR and I wasn't even informed? Karev? Bailey: Dr. Karev didn't page you because he knows how to prioritize. Ten minutes ago, this patient was coding from a perfed abdomen. Under the circumstances, Dr. Karev's quick thinking is the reason that your patient is even still alive. Callie: I'll expect a fully dictated chart before you leave tonight, Karev. (Callie leaves) Bailey: Ah, jackpot. Alex: Did he swallow those? Bailey: Poor fool. He must suffer from pica, an uncontrollable urge to eat any and everything. Alex: Check it out...a buffalo nickel. (Richard enters) Richard: Dr. Bailey, I saw you were scrubbed in. I thought I'd stop by and see what you've got. Bailey: What I've got? $2.37, sir, in change. (Lexie and George are at the nursery window) Lexie: It's like a cute festival in here. George: I delivered that one an hour ago. Lexie: Oh, my god. Why aren't you, like, jumping up and down? George: I've done this before. This is d�ja vu. Lexie: Look, George, you didn't pass your intern test. You know, it...it happens. It's...it's nobody's fault. Right? George: It's nobody's fault. Yeah, it's just that Callie gave Cristina the study cards, and Meredith didn't write anything down, and Cristina was planning a wedding, and Izzie...Izzie just had to. You know, I'm...I'm...I'm responsible. I've always been the responsible one. I'm not saying, "what about me?" I'm not saying, "when do I get what I want? "When do I get to be someone other than the guy who repeats his intern year?" I'm not saying that, but... Lexie: But what about you? George: Yeah! Lexie: I didn't plan on being here. I was all set for an internship at Mass Gen. And then, my mother gets the hiccups, and I'm at a funeral. You know, we all have problems. Moms die ,and dads drink so much that they don't even know what year they're in, and sisters...I...I didn't even know that there was a Meredith Grey until a couple of months ago. And she won't...she doesn't even want to talk to me. I don't want to be here. You know, I...I'd giving anything to not be here. You know, to...to have my life work out the way I planned, to even have time to ask, "what about me?" So you...you change. You...you get over it. I'm here now, so...and you...you delivered a baby today. So, stop feeling sorry for yourself. George: You...are kind of awesome. Lexie: I know. (Joey's OR) Richard: Karev why don't you make sure Psych's prepared to consult on the patient? Thank you. Now whether you like it or not, you and I are gonna talk. Richard: Chief... Richard: I know you're angry and disappointed. Bailey: No, I'm not angry. I'm not disappointed. I'm speechless. I don't want to talk because I am speechless. It makes me speechless to realize you didn't think that. I would've made an...an excellent chief resident. Richard: You're right. You would've made an excellent chief resident. But you'll make an even more excellent surgeon. You belong in the OR, Bailey. Focus on honing those skills, not on how well you can juggle schedules or fill out paperwork. Believe me, I know. You'll thank me for this one day. Bailey: But not today. (Mark and Derek are at the surgical board) Mark: I'm the one that could use a friend. I said that you could use a friend. I could use a friend. Derek: Look, Mark... Mark: No, I didn't come to Seattle for Addison. I didn't come to Seattle to be chief. I came to Seattle for you, okay? I came to Seattle to get you back. (They both smile) I know, I want to take it back now, but I already said it, so... Derek: Yeah, maybe we should have a drink. Mark: We could. Derek: Yeah. Not today. (Izzie is in the parking lot with her interns) Izzie: I know you didn't wake up this morning expecting this was how your first day was gonna go. You thought you'd get to reattach an arm or observe brain surgery. Instead you helped save the life of a deer. You can bitch and complain about it, or you can adjust your expectations. 'Cause like it or not, you're stuck with me. And I'm the kind of doctor who lets a little kid convince her she can do the impossible. Oh, plus, when I woke up this morning, I thought today was gonna go a lot differently, too. I thought I was gonna get the good interns. Instead I get stuck with the duds. So I have to adjust my expectations as well. (Cristina watches Henry's family go in to talk to him) (George enters the locker room. Everyone is looking at him and smiling) George: What? Female Intern: We heard...we heard you delivered a baby today. Lexie: On your very first day as an intern. George: Yeah. Female Intern: What was it like? Male Intern: Did you do it all by yourself? Female Intern: Was it just like...did your head just explode with the amazingness? Lexie: Your very first day. George: It was pretty cool. He came out really fast. I had to, uh, you know, determine the position of the cord. You know what a reverse trendelenburg is? (Alex enters the abandoned hallway where Cristina is) Alex: I filled this entire bag with coins from my patient's stomach today. Cristina: No kidding? (Cristina looks sad and lost) Alex: I miss Rebecca. Cristina: I miss Burke. Alex: Want some money? MVO: Change. we don't like it, we fear it. (Bailey leave the hospital and walks past Callie) Callie: What? You want to humiliate me some more? 'Cause I get it. I suck. I suck at my job. I suck as a wife. I suck all around, so, go ahead. Humiliate me some more, please. Bailey: Hope tomorrow's better. MVO: But we can't stop it from coming. (Meredith exits the elevator) Lexie: Meredith. Derek: Meredith. MVO: We either adapt to change, or we get left behind. (She walks away with Derek, leaving Lexie standing there. They enter an on-call room) Meredith: I, um... Derek: You're not ready for this? Meredith: No. Derek: I asked for too much. Meredith: I think so. Derek: So this is it? Meredith: Yeah. Derek: We're breaking up. Meredith: We're breaking up. MVO: It hurts to grow. Anybody who tells you it doesn't is lying. Derek: We're broken up. Meredith: It's done. (They kiss) Derek: So a breakup kiss. Meredith: A breakup kiss. Derek: And some breakup sex. Meredith: Yeah, breakup sex. MVO: But here's the truth. sometimes the more things change, the more they stay the same. (Izzie answers the door and it's George) MVO: And sometimes...oh, sometimes change is good. George: I love you, too. MVO: Sometimes change is...everything.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x01 - A Change is Gonna Come"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 4x02: Love/Addiction Original Airdate: 10/4/2007 Written by: Debora Cahn Directed by: James Frawley Provided by TVTDB.com (Seattle scenes) MVO: In the hospital, we see addiction every day. (George is at Meredith's house talking with Izzie) George: I...I feel this, uh, this...this, uh, this exhilaration. It's like I...it's like I finally figured it out. You know what it's like? It's like when...it's like I was sleeping, and I...it's like I woke up. And it's just...it's just amazing. MVO: It's shocking how many kinds of addiction exist. (Derek and Meredith are in bed and just finished having sex) Meredith: This is the best breakup ever. Derek: I don't know why we didn't break up a long time ago. Meredith: What are you doing? Derek: Sleeping. Meredith: No. No sleepovers. Derek: Please. It's 3:00 in the morning. I gotta work tomorrow. Meredith: We agreed. No sleepovers. Broken up people don't sleep over. Sex only. It's the only part of the relationship that works. Derek: I know. Why screw it up with everything else, right? Dinner, conversations. Meredith: You're mocking my severe emotional limitations. Derek: You know, I could live without conversation. I could live without meals or sleepovers. Well, we shouldn't have sleepovers because you snore. But mockery? Mockery, unh-unh. Meredith: Okay, sex and mockery it is. MVO: It would be too easy if it was just drugs and booze and cigarettes. (George and Izzie) George: She said she loved me, and...And, you know, my dad, he...oh, god, he loved her. And...and, you know, when he died then he...I...I shouldn't have gotten married. (Cristina is sitting in her empty apartment with all of the wedding presents) MVO: I think the hardest part of kicking a habit is wanting to kick it. I mean, we get addicted for a reason, right? (Cristina frantically tears open the presents) (George and Izzie) George: I thought it was right, but it wasn't. It's not. Izzie: It's not. George: No. MVO: Often...too often...things that start out as just a normal part of your life at some point cross the line to obsessive... compulsive... out of control. George: I...I gotta tell her. I have to tell her that the marriage is over. It's the right thing to do. (George leaves then reenters) George: Did you see how I walked out of here all determined? Izzie: It made me proud. MVO: It's the high we're chasing, the high that makes everything else...fade away. (George leaves again) Izzie: He loves me, too. (Derek and Richard are at the OR board) Richard: What do you think of the board? Derek: Good. It looks good. Richard: Oh, I didn't do it. I'm delegating. I am being a delegator. I'm doing it all different, making time for my wife. Derek: Oh, yeah? She talking to you yet? Richard: She will when she sees I'm a delegator. I...I should move that surgery up there. Derek: Junkie. Richard: Yeah. Right, right. It's good. It's fine. Okay. I'm delegating. See? Being a delegator. (Richard walks away and Mark walks up) Mark: What's wrong with the chief? Derek: He's a junkie. Mark: Him? You're the one who looks all strung out. Derek: I'm just tired. Mark: Let me guess. You and Meredith are back together, and you've been up all night doing the horizontal salsa. Derek: Mambo. Horizontal mambo. And Meredith and I, we're just friends. Mark: Sexy friends? Derek: You're like the worst, most juvenile human being I've ever met in my life. Mark: You know the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem? Derek: How many nurses have you slept with this week? Mark: That's not a problem, man. That's an adventure. (Cristina is at the nurse's station surrounded by appliances) Tyler: It is beautiful. Izzie: I know. It's a Belgian flip round pro. Tyler: What do you want for it? Cristina: What do you got? Tyler: Next time I get a projectile vomiter, I could lose your pager number. Cristina: You gotta do better than that. Surgeries, baby. Preferably cardio. (Meredith walks up) Meredith: Are these all, wedding gifts? Izzie: Yes. She's giving them away. Cristina: I'm not giving you the Mixmaster. Meredith: I think the tradition is you're supposed to return them. Cristina: Well, Burke registered for this crap. Now I'm the one stuck dealing with it. So I'm using it for professional gain. (Mark walks up) Mark: You sure you're ready to part with this? Izzie: She's not. I want it. Cristina: I am if I can help on the rhomboid flap in your next Mohs defect repair. Mark: Come to daddy. Alex: You steal this stuff? Izzie: Make her give me something. Alex: Give her something. Izzie: Give me the Mixmaster. Cristina: Face it. You have nothing I want. (Bailey walks up) Bailey: Would you look at the residents? Big, snazzy residents, standing around playing with house wares. Cristina: Turn a blind eye and the soup tureen's yours. Four! Take this mix...hey! Take the Mixmaster and all this crap and put it in my locker. Carnage in the pit. My day's improving. Follow. Lexie: Uh, we're not gonna round? Cristina: Carnage trumps rounds, three. Write that down. Carnage always trumps rounds. (George walks up to Callie in the hall) George: Callie. Callie: Oh, hey. I know, I know. I never made it home last night. But I got swamped with paperwork and fell asleep in an on call room. George: I need to talk to you when you have time. Callie: I have no time. I'm out of time. This chief resident thing is kicking my ass. George: Later, then. Tonight, when we're alone? Callie: Is it serious? (Richard enters) Richard: What do we got? Callie: A gas main blew in an apartment building. Five injured, some badly. Cristina: Excellent. Horrible. It's horribly sad. (Ambulance bay) Ambulance Driver: Marla Kristler, 34-year-old female, abdomen blown out, skull fracture, third-degree burns over at least 40% of her body. Richard: Okay, I got this. Open OR two. Page Dr. Shepherd. Torres, triage the rest. Callie: Yes, sir. Yang, you're with the chief. Go. Cristina: Oh, thank you. Uh, one, four, come with me. Lexie: What about us? Cristina: Uh... go help Bailey in the clinic. (Another ambulance pulls up Dave Kristler and his son get out) Dave: my wife...she came in...in another ambulance. Is she here? Where...where'd they take her? Callie: Yeah, yeah. She'll be going straight to surgery. Sir, are you injured? Dave: No. My son! Ambulance Driver: 18 months old, contusions, possible head injury. BP and pulse are elevated. Callie: Karev! Alex: I'm supposed to be on plastics. Izzie: I'll take it. Callie: I called Karev. You're with the Kristlers. Izzie: What about me? Callie: Oh, you up late last night? You look a little tired. Perhaps you should sit this one out. Izzie: I'm fine. Not up late. Went to bed early. (Another trauma room) Mark: Hello, Mister... Archie: Roche. Archie Roche. Callie: Age 60,second and third-degree burns over chest and upper abdomen, facial contusions and possible shoulder fracture. Archie: One minute I'm reading the sports section, the next I'm flat on my back looking up at a hole in the ceiling right into Dave and Marla's apartment. Mark: These burns should be debrided while he gets worked up. Callie: All right. We'll do a trauma series and shoulder films. Stevens. Izzie: Got it. Where's your pain? Archie: Just promise me you'll take care of Marla and the baby, okay? Mark: Are they your family, sir? Archie: They might as well be. (Derek is examining the Kristler baby) Derek: How close to the explsin was he? Dave: Oh, we were, uh, we were in the living room, his mom was in the kitchen. Derek: The gas line blew? Dave: I...I think it was the stove. Derek: All right, we're gonna run some tests on your baby. Karev, I'm going into surgery with the chief. Keep me posted. (George, Meredith and Bailey are in another trauma room with Clark) Clark: Marla and David are friends. I was just leaving when the...when the kitchen blew up. The blast knocked me into a wall. Meredith: Have you seen this? Clark: Grim. You guys look grim. Bailey: Uh, Clark, we need to get a CT to check for internal bleeding. Clark: Internal bleeding? I was on my way to work. (Bailey is in the ER hallway) Bailey: Um, hey, I need a resident to help me out in the clinic to oversee the new interns while I'm working on this patient. Callie: No, I'm sorry. I can't help. Bailey: You can't help? Callie: The clinic is voluntary, Bailey. I'm not gonna force any residents to go in there with this much going on in the pit, but you can have as many interns as you need, okay? (Cristina is at the nurse's station) Cristina: And tell Dr. Kent he's gotta find himself another OR, the chief's taking his. Tyler: I want the waffle maker. Cristina: Haven't we already covered this? Tyler: Yeah, but now I got something you want. Cristina: Oh, yeah? What? (Mama Jane Burke enters and Cristina ducks behind the desk) Jane: Hello I'm Jane Burke. Tyler: Dr. Burke's mother. How nice to see you. Jane: Uh, I'm looking for Dr. Cristina Yang. Tyler: Yang, Yang? Let me see. Dr. Yang...I'll page her, but I think she's in surgery. Jane: I'll wait. Tyler: Waffle maker? Cristina: Fine. (Meredith enters) Meredith: What's the 9-1-1? Jane: Mama is here. (Izzie enters) Izzie: I'm working with Callie. Callie. Gotta find George. Meredith: Your mother? What? Cristina: Mama. Mama is here. Izzie: Seen George, Mer? He's your intern. Meredith: Oh, Burke's mother. Cristina: Yeah, make the synapses fre a little more quickly, Meredith. Meredith: You know, I was just with a patient. I'd be very happy to go back there. Cristina: No, no, no. You have to help me. Izzie: I'll help for the Mixmaster and George's current location. (Richard walks past on his way to the OR) Richard: Dr. Yang, you scrubbing in? Cristina: Yes, sir. Absolutely. Cristina: Just get rid of her, okay? Politely. (Cristina leaves and Izzie just stares at Meredith) Meredith: What? Izzie: George! (Dave is in the trauma room with his son who is still screaming loudly) Dave: Come on, B. It's okay. Brian, stop crying, baby. I can't...I can't think, baby. I'm...why won't he stop crying? Alex: Hey there, Brian. Whoa, you're a big boy. Do you work out, huh? You take care... take care of yourself. Female Intern: Dr. Karev. CT Results. Should I page Shepherd? Alex: No, he's in surgery. Let me take a look. Dave: What do you see? Alex: Uh, there's nothing acute. Dave: Acute? Nothing? Alex: Yeah, I'm gonna...I need to run a couple more tests, okay? (He whispers to the Intern) Alex: Schedule an MRI. Female Intern: Why? Alex: Because I said so, Nancy Drew. Just do it. (Bailey is walking Lexie and another intern through the clinic) Bailey: Rooms one and seven are private and should be used for private conversations with patients, not for closed-door socializing. All carts are setup the same. Memorize where everything is. Male Intern: Will we be able to do procedures on our own? Bailey: No. You are interns. All procedures will be discussed and overseen by an upper level. All charts will be signed out by an upper level. And all patients will be looked at by someone other than you! Lexie: And what if...ooh! I'm sorry. Uh, I, uh, sorry. What if we can't find anyone? (Meredith enters the waiting room where Jane Burke is) Meredith: Mrs. Burke. What a surprise to see you here. Are you visiting someone? Jane: You're the maid of honor. Miss Grey. Meredith: That's me. Jane: When you stood up in front of Preston's friends and loved ones and you said, "It's over. It's over. It's so over" were you trying to smash the hopes of the best man, or were you just trying to be funny? Meredith: I... Jane: Because making light of that situation would be inappropriate. And to use that moment to send a message to your boyfriend... well, that's... selfish. So were you being inappropriate, or were you being selfish? Meredith: I, uh... am, uh...I apologize for that, Mrs. Mama, ma'am. I'm just gonna go. Okay. Jane: Miss Grey? Meredith: Yes, ma'am. Jane: When you report back to Cristina, would you tell her, please, that I am waiting for her and that I will continue to wait for her? Meredith: Yes, ma'am. (Izzie, Callie and Archie are in his trauma room. Izzie knocks over some instruments) Izzie: Sorry. Sorry. Archie: Any news on Marla? My neighbor. I promise, as soon as I hear something, I'll, uh, give you an update. (Izzie knocks over some more instruments) Izzie: Crap. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I'm really sorry. Callie: 3-part proximal humerus fracture. He's gonna need a percutaneous reduction and internal fixation. Archie: That boy of theirs...Brian...gorgeous. Sometimes they're not...kids. Sometimes they're ugly. You have any kids, doctor? Mark: Not that I know of. Archie: Not married either, are you? Mark: I'm afraid I haven't found anybody who will put up with me. Archie: Well, get on the stick. Don't do like I did. Don't be a bachelor your whole life. You can only play the field for so long. Then suddenly one day, your whole life passes you by, and those parts aren't working like they used to. Mark: They have medicine for that now. Archie: They don't have medicine for that "all alone" part, now do they? Mark: No, I suppose not. Archie: You got some pretty ones right here. Callie: Oh, I'm off the market, Mr. Roche. I...I'm very happily married. (Izzie knocks over even more instruments) Izzie: I'm really sorry. Sorry. (Izzie is in the hall with George) Izzie: You can't tell her. George: What? We decided. I'm supposed to tell her. I have to tell her tonight. Izzie: No, I know. You can't. You just...you can't, okay? I'm working with her. She's my boss. George: Damn it! Izzie: Maybe it'll just work itself out if we wait. You'll grow apart. George: Izzie...she's been working long hours. Izzie: Maybe she's avoiding you. Maybe she's having an affair. George: Izzie... Izzie: Don't tell her. George: How long would you suggest I wait until I tell her about us? Izzie: I don't know. At least until she's not in such a bad mood. George: A week? A month? Izzie: I'm sorry. George: But...well, then, you know, we can't, uh... Izzie: I know. George: Then you better walk away. Izzie: I better walk away. Yeah, I really better walk away. (Bailey passes Meredith in the hall) Meredith: So George has Clark in line for his CT. Bailey: Grey. Meredith: Yes Bailey: Grey. Meredith: Yes. Bailey: Okay, I need you to work in the clinic, Grey. Meredith: Well... Bailey: No, no. Before you open your mouth and tell me all the reasons why you can't, just...just let me say this...I need this, because I have idiots...you understand me, Grey? Idiot interns are down there in my clinic, a clinic dripping with my blood, sweat and tears, Grey, and I am not convinced...not at all convinced...that they will not burn it down with their ineptitude. Look, no, I'm not telling, 'cause I...I understand I do not have the authority to tell. So I'm asking...nicely. Okay, I'm just saying, if I ever did anything for you, like, I don't know, save your life...if you ever felt you owed me a debt of thanks, now is when I'd like to collect. Please. (Meredith enters the clinic and suddenly sees Lexie) Meredith: Oh, no. Lexie: Hey, are you working down here today? Meredith: Uh, I don't, um, know. Lexie: Great. Well, we have no idea what we're doing. Plus, I was really hoping we'd get a chance to speak. So...yay. Meredith: Yay. (George is giving Clark a cat scan) Clark: I can't believe this. This is surreal. George: You claustrophobic? Clark: No, I'm not claustrophobic. It's just, I was on my way to work, you know? I was on my way to work and I stopped at a friend's house, and the next thing you know, I'm in a cat scan machine. It's like...how did this happen? (Female Intern enters the room where Alex is with Dave and Brian) Female Intern: Dr. Karev. Alex: Lab work? Female Intern: It's crazy, isn't it? Alex: Stay here. Stay in this room and do not leave. Do not leave that man alone with that child. Richard: Dr. Yang, was that Dr. Burke's mother I saw in the waiting room earlier? Derek: Mrs. Burke is here? Cristina: I don't think...I wouldn't know, sir. Richard: Okay. How are we doing up there, Shepherd? Derek: Good. She looks good from my end. Richard: That's the best part about the job, don't you think? Giving good people second chances. (George is talking with Clark) George: Believe me, I know. I get it. But, you know, it's life. It happens. You know, you're going down one path, and all of a sudden, then you realize, like, oh, no, no, no, this is the...this is the wrong path. This is...no, this isn't the path for me. And...and it's...and it's good because you learn and you realize that you can handle it. And you can. You can handle this. You...Clark. Clark! Clark...code blue. We need a crash cart in here. (Alex enters Martha's OR) Alex: Chief. The 1 year old...Brian Kristler? He's strung out on meth. Richard: What? Alex: Yeah, it was a meth lab that blew up. This woman and her husband are running a meth lab. Richard: Oh. (George is trying to revive Clark) George: Clear. (Clark suddenly breathes) (Martha's OR) Derek: Ah yes. The joys of surgeondom. Saving the lives for those who deserve it the most. Richard: Tell Dr. Torres to follow exposure protocol for children. Tell her I am counting on her to take care of this. Alex: Got it Derek: Sure you don't want page somebody to take over so you can go handle that? Richard: I'm trying to get back with my wife, Derek. In order to get back with my wife, I have to learn how to... Derek: Delegate. Richard: Dr. Torres can handle this. (Callie and Alex are walking in the hall) Callie: They were shting him up with... Alex: No, they weren't shting him up. When you cook meth, the fumes, they coat the walls, the floors. The baby walks around, crawls around, puts it's hands in its mouth, it gets in his bloodstream. Callie: God. Okay, um, call the police and social services. I'll spread the word. Alex: Wait, what about the dad? He's still in therewith the kid. You call the police and social services. You let them take care of the dad. You take care of the baby. (Callie walks up to Mark as Alex walks off) Callie: Sloan. We got a situation. (Izzie is debrieding Archie's burns) Archie: You're doing a fine job. You were acting awfully odd before, had me a little nervous, but... (Mark enters) Mark: Mr. Roche, I'm gonna ask you a question. I don't want you to be offended by it, but the answer could affect your surgery. Archie: Fine. fre away. Mark: Are you a crystal meth user? Izzie: You're kidding, right? He's, like, 60. Mark: No judgment, sir. All I need's a yes or no answer. Archie: Crystal what? Izzie: It's a drug, sir. Um, it's addictive and very dangerous. Archie: Well, unless you put it in my blood pressure medicine, I never touched the stuff. Izzie: What's going on? Mark: The Kristlers had a meth lab in their apartment. It's what caused the explsin. Archie: Marla and Dave had a drug lab in their apartment? Archie: No. Impossible. Absolutely not. I've known those two for five...five years. We go on picnics, to ball games. I babysit for them. I babysit for drug dealers? (George is walking through the hall with Clark when Bailey and Callie walk up) Bailey: O'Malley! What happened? George: He coded. Callie: He coded? George: Coded, out of nowhere. Heart stopped. Coded. Callie: Probably a drug addict. George: What? Callie: That's what I came here to tell you. That fre that he was in, it was a meth lab explsin. He could have cardiomyopathy from meth use. That would explain it. George: Oh... it's a miracle I got him back. Callie: Wait, you ran the code yourself? Where's Grey? George: She's covering in the clinic. Callie: What the hell is she doing in the clinic? I thought I told you to take interns. Bailey: I didn't want interns. (Callie storms off) George: Sorry about that. Bailey: Some things, O'Malley, some things just don't need to be told. (Meredith is examining a woman in the clinic) Meredith: How about here? Does it hurt here? Patient: Weird. Meredith: It feels weird? Patient: No. That lady is staring at me... or my fat. Meredith: Oh, don't worry. She's staring at me. I'll be right back, okay? (Cristina enters the clinic) Cristina: Well? Meredith: How'd surgery go on the mom? Cristina: Yeah, she'll live. Whatever. Meredith: Oh, I tried. I tried. Mama is not budging, and she is very scary. Cristina: Yeah, obviously. What does she want? Did Burke send her? Meredith: I don't know. I mean, you have to go. You have to go deal with mama. Just go get it over with and then when you're done, come back and tell me all about it because I could really use a pick-me-up. Cristina: Okay, mama showdown is not for your enjoyment. Besides, my patient is sab and until I'm paged, I'm gonna stay right here. (They look back and Lexie is still staring) Cristina: She keeps staring at us. Meredith: I know. Cristina: Make her stop. Meredith: You make her stop. Cristina: You're her sister. Meredith: I'm an only child. You're her resident. Cristina: If you have time to stare, you have time to get me coffee, so move, move, move. Two, stay. Meredith: Now see? If you could just do that with mama... (George walks past the waiting room where Jane Burke is) George: Mrs. Burke! Jane: I don't think I know you. George: I'm George O'Malley. I'm a friend of Burke's. I was Burke's guy. Jane: Hi, George O'Malley...Burke's friend, Burke's guy. Please sit. George: I guess I have a minute. You know one time he let me live on his sofa when I had no place else to stay? How is he? Is he...okay? Jane: He's Preston. He's a gentleman. And so... he doesn't like to talk about it. And I just really don't know what to say to him. George: Maybe, uh...I don't know. Maybe you can tell him that he dodged a bllet. I mean, marriage is...once you're in, you're in. Burke is smart, you know? He didn't make a mistake. 'Cause it's a mistake that, you know, it's hard to take back. Which, even if you want to take it back, you can't. So you can tell him that. Jane: Once you're in, you're in. Make sure you have that engraved on your wedding ring when you get married. George: Oh, I'm already married. Jane: You're already married? George O'Malley...Burke's friend, Burke's guy...staying in a marriage out of obligation? That's no way to live. That's no way to love. But I think you know that. George: I do. Sometimes I do. (Meredith enters the nurse's office where Derek is) Meredith: Oh, your timing could not have been more perfect. Where are we going? Derek: What do you mean, where are we going? Meredith: You paged me, right? Derek: I did. Meredith: Good. So on call room? Derek: You know, I was thinking maybe we could, uh, go to the cafeteria. Thought you might be hungry. Why are you looking at me like that? Meredith: Derek, we agreed..."s" and "m" only. Derek: "S" and "m"? Meredith: Sex and mockery. Derek: Right, "s" and "M. Meredith: So you're eating lunch? Derek: I am. Want to come? Meredith: No. Meet me in the lobby at 8:00. And eat your dinner first. Derek: Yeah, great. Perfect. (Alex is in with Dave and Brian) Dave: That's a really big needle, man. Do you have to use such a big needle? Alex: His IV came out, and he needs to be hydrated. Dave: Okay, okay. Look, I'm...shh. It's all right Look, I'm just...I'm freaking out a little bit here. I mean, do you think you could get me an update on my wife? Alex: Your wife has a crater in her abdomen, so even if she does survive surgery, it's gonna be a long, hard, painful recovery. Dave: She's gonna be okay, right? I mean, she's gotta be okay. Brian, please, sweetheart, look at me. Brian, okay, stop crying. Brian, please. Brian, stop crying! Alex: He can't stop crying! Okay? He can't stop crying because his nervous system is sht. He can't stop crying because his brain and his heart and his renal system are all compromised. He can't stop crying because he's in withdrawal from crystal meth, you son of a bitch. Dave: No, no. That's impossible. He wasn't in the room when we were making it. Alex: It was all over your apartment, okay? I tested him 'cause I smelled it on his skin. Dave: I love my son. Okay, we...we were broke. I lost my job. And I'm a good dad, and I love my family. Alex: Well, now you can love your family from jail. (Dave punches Alex knocking him out then takes Brian) Dave: I'm sorry. (Richard enters the OR where Callie and Izzie are) Richard: Dr. Torres. Callie: Yeah, chief. Richard: "Yeah, chief"? Is it that you don't know what's going on in my hospital, Dr. Torres, or that you don't care? Callie: Um, I'm sorry. I guess I don't know. Richard: I delegated the meth lab situation to you. And now one of your residents has been attcked and a baby is missing. Callie: I don't understand. I told Karev to take... Richard: I don't want to hear any of your excuses. Finish up here. You better hope that baby shows up. (Richard leaves) Izzie: I think you're a good chief resident. Callie: What? Izzie: I know...I know that you've been having a hard time with it, and...and this thing with the baby... clearly it's not an easy job, and I think you're doing a good job at it. Callie: I can take it from here. Izzie: What? Callie: Get out of my OR, Stevens. Now! (Meredith is in the clinic stitching up Alex's laceration) Meredith: So the happy little family makes meth. Alex: There's no such thing as a happy family. (Cristina is pacing) Alex: What's with her? Meredith: Well, mama Burke is here, and we don't know why. My guess is that she's here to kll Cristina. She's hovering again. Cristina: If you're done with the charts, go fold something, like, you know, sheets. Meredith: What are you lookin' at? Don't look at her. Alex: Your sister. She's hot. Meredith: I'm an only child. Don't talk to me about Lexie. Alex: Oh, the police want to talk to me. Cristina: You know, all I want to know is why she's here. Is that too much to ask? (Derek sits down in the waiting room with Jane Burke) Derek: He's not returning my phone calls anymore. Jane: He's doing his best. Do you think...do you think she really loved him...Cristina? Derek: I...I think she loved him the best that she knew how. Jane: And that would not have been enough for you either? Derek: No. It wouldn't have been enough for me either. Jane: So you would've ended it, too? Derek: Well... burke and I are...are built differently. He's stronger than I am. He was strong enough to... and, um, we're not built the same. Jane: Honorable men are all built the same. Derek: And you think I'm an honorable man? Jane: Do you know when to walk away? Do you know when not to take less than you deserve? If you do, then you're an honorable man. (George is talking with Clark) George: When you got injured in the fre, the shock to your body combined with the drugs and the damage...your heart seized up, and you went into cardiac arrest. You're also bleeding internally, so you need to stay for observation, which means that you are probably about to go into withdrawal. But you can't leave because it is still quite possible that you'll need surgery. Clark: You got any good news, Dr. O'Malley? George: I wish I could say yes. (Callie is frantically looking for Brian) Callie: Come on. Where are you? Damn it! (Mark walks up) Mark: How's the surgery on the old guy? Callie: Fine. Mark: Callie? Callie: Damn it. I can't talk right now. I have to find a baby. Mark: Are you okay? Callie: A baby was lost... on my watch. I am chief resident. I am responsible. And the chief, he gave this to me, and I blew it. And...and now a baby's missing. So no, I'm not okay. Mark: No. No, you are not okay. Callie: Plus, I think...I think my husband's having an affair. Mark: Well, if that's true, he's an idiot. and if that's true, you need to talk to him. You know, as an alternative to destroying your career. (Lexie walks up to Meredith who is in the clinic) Lexie: Um, Dr. Grey...I was wondering, do you know where the thermometers are? 'Cause... Meredith: Do you really not know where the thermometers are, Lexie? Or are you just looking for an excuse to talk to me? Lexie: I... Meredith: Simple question, Lexie. Are you an idiot or a stalker? Okay, that was a mean thing to say. I'm aware of that because I'm generally not a me but I'm a person who just doesn't want to know you. And you are a person who's making that very difficult. So please, just stop making it so difficult for me to not know you. Okay? (Derek is examining Martha when he hears Dave's voice from inside the bathroom) Dave: Brian, oh, my God. Please, wake up, baby. Please. Derek: Mr. Kristler. Dave: He won't wake up. He was shaking, and then he just...he just...he won't wake up. Derek: Let me take him, Mr. Kristler. Dave: No, I love my baby. I don't want to leave my baby. Derek: It sounds like he had a seizure. Okay, please let me... Dave: I don't want to go to jail. Derek: You don't want him to die, so if you love him, please let me take him. I'm sorry! Let me take him. Dave: Baby, please. (Brian is in an OR now. Bailey and Alex are in the viewing room) Bailey: He had a stroke. A one year old with a stroke. Alex: You can yell, you know? Bailey: Not my job anymore. Alex: I'm just saying, you can if you want. I...I deserve it. Bailey: Oh, you do deserve it. You do deserve, Dr. Karev, to be chastised for your stunningly poor decision making. You...you've certainly earned a-a reprimand for your unbelievably destructive tactical error. You got in the face of a drug dealer? You got in the face of a drug dealer before the police had arrived...you got in the face of a known felon while his 1-year-old child was still in the room? Are you stupid? Are you without intelligence? Because I know you were taught better than that. I taught you better than that, Dr. Karev. Gettin' in the face of a drug dealer. Fool. Alex: Thank you. Bailey: Oh, no. Thank you. (Lexie walks up to Meredith who is still in the clinic) Lexie: I am a nice person. Okay, I...I am. And...I don't know what it is that I did to you, but, you know, we have the same dad. So I was just thinking that a simple conversation... Meredith: We don't have the same dad, Lexie. You and I, we do not have the same dad. My dad disappeared when I was 5 years old, and I never saw him again. Does that sound like the daddy you grew up with? I kicked a man out of my bed in the middle of the night...the world's most perfect man, who loves me, and I can't let him. And it doesn't take a shrink to figure out why. Because our dad chose you. So I'm sure you are a very nice girl, Lexie. But I hope you can understand, you're not a girl I ever wanted to have to know. (George is sitting with Clark who is going into withdrawal) Clark: I never even tried drugs until I was 30. Stupid. I'm so stupid. I went to a party, and there was all this...this meth floating around and...I just figured, what the heck? Once won't kll you. And then...and then it's more than once, then it's all you can think about, and then...then you're outside your dealer's house at 7:00 in the morning. This isn't me. It...it isn't. I'm not this guy. I'm...I'm not this guy. I'm not this guy. George: Clark? (Clark codes) (Cristina finally goes to talk to Jane) Cristina: Hello. Jane: It took you long enough. Cristina: Yes. Jane: I came for Preston's key. I'd like to pick up some of his things and the necklace I gave you for the wedding. Cristina: Of...of course. Just, uh, leave it under the mat when you're done. Jane: And I wanted to say I'm sorry. I... I've come to know you, I think. And what you love even more than Preston is being a surgeon. You are planning to continue with cardiothoracic surgery like my son, am I correct? Cristina: Yes. Jane: So I'm sorry you lost the man you love. But more than that, I'm sorry you lost your teacher. With him by your side...you could've become a brilliant heart surgeon. Cristina: I see. Jane: You're a strong woman, Cristina. I respect that. I wish I could've been born at another time. I might be more like you. So I shall leave the key under the mat. Cristina: Uh, can you take the gifts? There are all these wedding gifts, and I can't...can you...can you please take them away? Jane: Of course I can. Cristina: He's never coming back, is he? Not even to say good-bye. Jane: Remember... you're a strong woman. (George is talking with Izzie as Clark is rolled out) George: His heart couldn't take it. There was just too much damage. He couldn't take it. I'm not this guy. I won't be this guy who...I'm going to tell her. (Callie walks up to Richard) Callie: Oh, chief. Richard: I, uh...I've got paperwork, Dr. Torres. Kidnapped babies make for a lot of paperwork. I was planning on maybe going to see my wife tonight. But instead, I get to do this. Callie: I could help. I mean, I...I could...I could help. Richard: No, you've helped enough for one day. (Martha wakes up) Martha: What... how did I get... Cristina: You were cooking crystal meth and the substances exploded. Martha: Where's...where's my... Cristina: Your husband and your son, uh, sustained only minor injuries. Although it seems, um, your son had been passively ingesting methamphetamine. He suffered a stroke earlier today and went into surgery this afternoon. I believe the surgery went smoothly. Your husband was taken by the police, and I'm sure they'll be wanting to speak to you as well. Oh, okay. Okay, you know what? Just try...try to breathe. Slowly. Slowly. Breathe. I'm sure it must feel...as though everything is coming apart. But you can get through this. Just...breathe. breathe. MVO: The thing about addiction is it never ends well. (Lexie is in the locker room and breaks down crying) MVO: Because eventually whatever it is that was getting us high...stops feeling good and starts to hurt. (Derek is sitting in a dark room and Mark enters) Mark: Want to grab a drink? Derek: I have a problem. Mark: What's up? Derek: No, I'm just...I'm admitting I...I have a problem. (Izzie is in Archie's room) Archie: What's gonna happen to them and the baby? Izzie: Um... his grandmother is coming for him. I think she's gonna take custody. Archie: They were it. They were my family. Can you imagine? After 60 years on this planet...my family's a couple of drug dealers and their kid. Izzie: You know, just because people do horrible things, it doesn't always mean they're horrible people. MVO: Still, they say you don't kick the habit 'til you h*t rock bottom. But how do you know when you're there? (George walks up to Callie in the hall) Callie: So I take it you still want to talk? George: Yeah, I do. Callie: No. George: No, I... Callie: No, you don't. George, please. Just...please, please don't say anything. Please. I am asking you as your wife. I am asking you not to say anything. I am asking you to just not. Not tonight. I am your wife. Do this for me? George: Okay. (Meredith is waiting in the lobby when Mark walks out) Mark: Dr. Grey. I'm heading over to Joe's. You want to grab a drink? Meredith: Oh, no, thanks. I'm, uh, meeting someone. (Derek is watching from the balcony) Mark: Yeah. Derek asked me to track you down. He's, uh, stuck with a patient. Not gonna be able to meet you. Sends his apologies. Meredith: Oh, okay. Mark: So... Joe's? Meredith: I think I'm going home. (Derek sees her walking away dejected and calls to her) Derek: Meredith. MVO: Because no matter how badly a thing is hurting us...sometimes letting it go hurts even worse. (They walk out together) (Cristina enters her apartment to find the gifts as well as all of Burke's things gone. She sits down in the chair looking very sad)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x02 - Love/Addiction"}	foreverdreaming
GREY'S ANATOMY 4x03: Let The Truth Sting Original Airdate: 10/11/2007 Written by: Mark Wilding Directed by: Daniel Minahan Provided by TVTDB.com (Izzie is waiting near the elevator, pacing) MVO: Doctors give patients a number of things. We give them medicine, we give them advice. And most of the time, we give them our undivided attention. (Alex, Lexie and a bunch of interns are in the elevator) Male Intern: I heard he saved a guy who coded yesterday, by himself. Female Intern: He just knows things...never messes up in rounds, always has the answer. Female Intern 2: And he's so calm. I'm always terrified, but he's, like, steady. Male Intern 2: Best intern ever. Alex: Hey, who are they talking about? Lexie: George O'Malley. Alex: Seriously? Don't they know that he... (Lexie shhs him) (Alex exits the elevator where is) MVO: But by far the hardest thing you can give a patient is the truth. Alex: You know O'Malley's got these morons snowed? They don't even know he's a repeater. Izzie: Yeah, whatever. (Derek, Meredith and Cristina are in the same elevator) Meredith: Hey. Derek: Hey. Meredith: How are you today? Derek: Good. Meredith: Great. MVO: The truth is hard. The truth... is awkward. And very often...the truth hurts. (They all exit the elevator where Izzie is standing. Derek and Meredith walk away) Izzie: Damn it. Meredith: Bye. Derek: Bye. Cristina: She's doing McDreamy. She's doing McDreamy and lying about it. Izzie: That's great. Cristina: She thinks I'm weak, that I'm fragile. Like I can't handle it 'cause of Burke. Izzie: Poor Cristina. All alone. Cristina: Damn right. Poor Cristina. (George finally exits the elevator) Izzie: George, what happened? MVO: I mean, people say they want the truth. But do they really? (Derek and Meredith have just finished having sex in a supply closet) Meredith: Do I have sex hair? Derek: Uh, if I did my job right. Meredith: You go ahead. Derek: What? Meredith: You go ahead. I'll wait a minute. Derek: So this isn't just breakup sex. This is secret breakup sex. Is this about cristina, this morning in the elevator? Meredith: I don't know. I don't know what to do, you know? We don't talk about it, the whole Burke thing. I mean, I want to be a good friend. I want to take care of her. But you don't take care of Cristina. Derek: Okay, so by being with me you're cheating on Cristina? Meredith: Just, if she knew about you and me... Derek: You'd have to talk about it. You'd have to talk about you and me, and it'd be a long conversation, and there'd be no time left over to talk about her. Meredith: I told you, we don't talk about it. (Alex is at the nurse's station with his interns) Alex: Pierce, you're in the pit. James, need you in peds. Laura, you're on scut. Laura: I was on scut yesterday. Alex: Oh, and just for that, you're on scut tomorrow get lost. (Richard walks up) Richard: Dr. Karev, this is dr. Normal Shales. Alex: Hey. Norman: Oh, a strong handshake. That's a good sign. Richard: Norman is transferring in from UCLA. I want him to work with you. Alex: Oh, are you the new OBGYN guy? Norman: I don't have a specialty yet. Richard: Norman is an intern. You'll be his resident. Alex: He's my intern? Norman: Don't worry, son. This tugboat's ready to pull his own weight. Richard: Age is just a number, right, Norman. Norman: Absolutely. Alex: Pretty important number. (Meredith walks up to the nurses station where Cristina is) Meredith: Hey. Cristina: Hey. (Cristina sounds sad) Meredith: You okay? Cristina: I don't know. I think it's all just hitting me...you know, stupid Burke dumping me and then stupid mama coming to reclaim her...magic necklace. Meredith: Do you want to talk about it? Cristina: No, not really, not... yet. Meredith: Okay. Well, if there's anything I can do... Cristina: You know, I just wish I had a good, bloody surgery. You know, bloody surgeries make me feel better. One, two, three, four... follow me. (Mark, Richard Meredith and her interns enter Connie's room) Elaine: Oh, Joanne, this is why you and I need to get sick, these doctors. Joanne: One's more handsome than the next. Connie: Oh, and here comes the handsomest one of them all. Hi, Dr. Webber. Richard: Connie. Connie: He took my appendix out three years ago. Barely left a scar. How's Adele? Richard: Um, oh, she's good, good. Uh, marriage is hard. Uh, but we're dating again. Uh, and she agreed to date me tonight...but, um...more...more importantly, how...how are you doing? Connie: Oh, I just had a little bump on my tongue removed is all. Couple of taste buds. Turns out it was a little touch of cancer. So I'm here to have the rest out. I mean, you know, the cancer, not the taste buds. I don't know exactly how bad it is because Dr. Sloan over there has been awfully quiet. Joanne: 'Cause you don't let him get a word in edgewise is why. Richard: Uh, how is she, Dr. Sloan? Mark: Well, we just got back the pathology report. Connie, unfortunately, the cancer is a bit more widespread than we'd hoped. It's over 60% of your tongue. Joanne: Well, what... what does she do, chemo? Mark: I think the, uh, best bet is a micro-vascular free flap. Dr. Grey? Meredith: Uh, he'll remove the cancerous part of the tongue, and then reconstruct it with a strip of flesh from your legs. George? George: Uh, the extra flesh will provide the bulk your tongue needs to breathe properly, chew, swallow. Connie: And talk? Dr. Sloan...I'll be able to talk, won't I? Mark: You will be able to talk, Connie. I just don't know how well you'll be understood. Elaine: You'll be okay. (Alex and Norman enter the clinic) Bailey: What are you doing in my clinic, Karev? I thought you didn't work in the clinic anymore. Alex: Oh, I don't, but I thought I could get my new intern Norman here settled in with you. Bailey's the best. You'll really learn from her. Bailey: Oh, pleased to meet you. You want to leave Norman with me while you troll for surgeries. Alex: The dude's got a bum hip, and he smells like arthritis cream. He can't keep up. Come on. Do me a favor ,and I'll do you a favor. Bailey: I'm calling in my favor now. Curtain five. You can take your intern and show him how we do an H&P. Nice to meet you, Norman. Norman: Thank you. (They walk over to curtain five) Alex: Hunter, uh, I'm Dr. Karev. This is Dr. Shales. What's, uh,what's going on? Mrs. Chapman: My son is on drugs. Hunter: I'm not on drugs, mom. Mrs. Chapman: I wasn't born yesterday. I know the signs. He's lethargic, irritable, and the last two months, his schoolwork's gone down the drain. Hunter: I'm not on drugs. Alex: Okay, there... there are a host of reasons why your son could be exhibiting those symptoms. Um, I think we should run some tests, see if there's any... Mrs. Chapman: But first a drug test, Dr. Shales. I'm right to want a drug test. Alex: Yeah, I...I just said that... Norman: Mrs. Chapman, you are not wrong. My Mary Beth, god rest her soul, was just like you. When one of our kids started heading down that slippery slope, she just knew it. You have a mother's instinct. Right, Dr. Karev? Alex: Yeah, right. (Izzie drags George into really old guy's room) Izzie: Okay. What happened? George, it's really old guy. We could bring a marching band in here, and he wouldn't know the difference. What happened with Callie? George: What happened? I... Izzie: I thought you were gonna tell her last night. George: I tried, but she would not let me. She... she wouldn't let me. I wanted to kll her, but then I couldn't kll her because she did help me through a lot of stuff. And it was a lot of stuff and, you know, she did help me through it. But then I wanted to kll her again, because who marries someone who just buried their father? And then I went to bed. Izzie: So what does this mean? (Izzie's interns enter) Izzie: What do you guys want? I told you I needed a minute before rounds. Intern: We heard you saved a guy yesterday. George: What? Izzie: Rounds. George: Excuse me. Izzie: We'll start in here. Graciella, what can you tell us about really old guy? Graciella: He has a name. Izzie: I know he has a name. We call him really old guy. Catch up. Graciella: 82-year-old,semicomatose male, uh, came in a year ago, status post fall and is post-op day 352 from... Izzie: Which basically means that he hasn't woken up for a year. So what's the treatment plan? (They all hesitate) Izzie: It's really very simple. Daily labs and dialysis three times a week. Really Old Guy: Don't bother with any more dialysis. I plan to die today, so it won't be necessary. Nice to meet you. And while I think really old guy is charming, in a "neglected patient" kind of way, my name is Charlie. Charlie Yost. (Izzie is in Charlie's room. Alex and Meredith enter) Meredith: Hey, I just heard. Welcome back. Alex: Is it true? Really old guy woke up? Izzie: He has a name. Charlie: This time tomorrow, you can call me really dad guy. Izzie: Guys, I don't think Mr. Yost knows who you are. Charlie: Sure I do. That's Meredith. She and the brain doctor are always running hot and cold. And you're, uh, Alex. You still got a thing for that old patient of yours? I was semi-comatose, blondie. I could still hear you guys. Izzie: Get a CT, a CBC and chemistries. Your kidneys may be working again, which may be why you woke up. That's good news. Charlie: Oh, it just means now I got two things to do today, take a pee and die. Izzie: Nobody's dying. (Richard walks up to Mark who is at the nurse's station) Richard: Functional muscle transfer. Mark: What? Richard: For Connie Williams. I was reading up on glossectomies and saw the procedure. Could micro-surgically re-innervate her hypo-glossal nerve. Mark: A nerve graft? It's too risky. A free flap's still your best bet. Richard: Oh, even if that goes well, you and I both know she'll never speak the same. That woman loves to talk more than anyone I know. (George walks up) George: What's a functional muscle transfer? Richard: You won't find it in the books, O'Malley. It's cutting-edge. You connect the nerves from the leg with the nerves from the tongue. Gives her a sht at really speaking. Mark: If it works. They've only done a half a dozen of them. Richard: Better than none. Sometimes you gotta push the envelope, Sloan. George: Why? Why is it better to do a surgery that neither of you have done than to do a surgery that you know at least gives her a chance to he a normal life? Do you know how to do this procedure? Richard: Are you saying that we're too old to learn new ways, O'Malley? George: No. Richard: Are you saying we're old dogs who can't learn new tricks? George: No, I just... Mark: We're not old dogs. Richard: We still got it. George: Okay. Mark: I did do a functional muscle transfer to restore elbow function once. Richard: Elbow, tongue... that's pretty close. Come on. What do you say? Let's light this candle. Mark: Yes, sir. Richard: Age is just a number, O'Malley. George: Oh, yes, sir. (Bailey enters the room where Callis) Bailey: I got Karev down in the clinic all day. Hope that's not a problem. Callie: Nope. Bailey: I know how you like to be told these things, so I'm telling you. Callie: Thank you. Bailey: Oh, he tried to dump a new intern on me... Karev. Clearly he's not interested in teaching. (George walks past the window) Bailey: Thank you for letting me know. (Mark and Derek are in an office) Mark: Do you ever feel old? Derek: I'm young. I'm a fetus. Mark: Nah, I mean you ever feel like there's gonna be a time when new techniques pass you by? Derek: I'm a genius and a scholar. Mark: Shut up. Derek: Meredith isn't telling Cristina about us. And, well, she tells Cristina everything. Mark: I thought you broke that off. Derek: I meant to. Mark: You think she's gonna want to get back together. Derek: No. Mark: You think she's gonna grow up and get all whole and...want a relationship. Derek: I do not. Mark: You're a bad liar. Derek: You're old. Mark: I'm just gettin' started, my friend. (Meredith walks up to the nurse's station where Cristina is) Meredith: Hey. You feeling any better? Cristina: I heard you're on that hemi-glossectomy. Meredith: The tongue surgery? Yeah. Cristina: Oh, here I am stuck in the pit with those know-nothing interns. You'd think eventually I'd catch a break. Meredith: Cristina...are we ever gonna talk about this, the Burke thing? Cristina: I'm not Izzie. I'm not gonna lie on the bathroom floor all day. I'm gonna lie here on the counter. Meredith: I'll trade you the hemi-glossectomy. Cristina: What? Meredith: You take the hemi-glossectomy, and I will take the ER. And your interns. Cristina: Are you sure? Meredith: Take the surgery if it makes you feel better. You're starting to freak me out. (Meredith walks away and Alex walks up) Alex: I saw the whole thing, Yang. You can stop pretending. Cristina: Oh, I'm not pretending. I'm sad. I'm very sad. Me so sad. Alex: Maybe I should try it, see if I can get Grey to take my new intern. Cristina: No. Hey, forget it. Sad is mine. Go find your own pretend emotion. (Charlie is yelling to Izzie who is outside his room) Charlie: Blondie! Hey, blondie. Izzie: Charlie...I have a million charts to update. I'm busy. Charlie: I want lobster. Izzie: What? Charlie: For my last meal. It's traditional. The dying man gets to choose what he wants to eat. I want lobster. Izzie: I'm not getting you lobster because you're not dying. I won't allow it. Charlie: A man can only hang on for so long, blondie. After a while, it's just not worth it. Izzie: Don't you have any friends, family, anyone? Charlie: They're all dad or on their way to dad. You'll understand someday when you're older, less naive. Izzie: I'm not naive. Charlie: You and what's his face, that's not naive? Izzie: I don't know what you're...we're not...he's not...you know about what's his face? Charlie: I know you're crazy if you think he's leaving his wife. Guys always say that. Izzie: Well, not that it's any of your business, but this is completely different. Charlie: I'm sure it's true love. I'm sure he's told his wife. I'm sure he's moved out. And I'm sure all your friends know, right? Izzie: Yeah. Charlie: By the way, I want real lobster, not that fake whitefish crap. (Meredith walks up to Lexie who is at a desk in the ER) Meredith: Hey, I'm filling in for Cristina. So how's it going? Lexie: I pulled a splinter out of a guy's toe, and now I'm writing about it. Meredith: Okay. Well, if you have any questions... Lexie: I have a lot of questions, just not about a splinter. Meredith: Okay. Lexie: Okay. (Ambulance driver enters with gurney) Ambulance Driver: 40-year-old unrestrained driver in a rollover MVC Meredith: Trauma one. Ambulance Driver: Lost vitals on the scene, and we were unable to intubate. Meredith: Lexie, let's go. Open the intubation tray. How long's he been down? Ambulance Driver: Took ten minutes to load him,14 to get here, so 24. Meredith: Push another epi. You know how to intubate? Lexie: Uh, I've never done it. Meredith: But you've seen it done? Lexie: Yeah, a couple of times. Meredith: Okay, come do one now. Lexie: Are you sure? Meredith: Visualize the cords, pull straight up, watch the tube go through the cords. Lexie: I...I...I can't see the cords. You should do this. Meredith: Okay, you can do it. Just don't rock up against the teeth. Just pull straight up. Nurse: Pulse ox is down to 86. (Meredith and Lexie are alone and the patient has obviously died) Meredith: That wasn't bad Lexie: What Meredith: That wasn't bad for your first intubation. Lexie: Is that some kind of joke? The guy is dad. He died. Meredith: He was dad when he came in here. He was dad on the scene. He was dad for 15 minutes in the ambulance. He was dad before I asked you to intubate. Lexie: You're pretty cavalier, don't you think? I mean, they brought him here for help. Meredith: They brought him here because they're legally required to. And I had you intubate because I'm required to teach you, and that is how you learn. Lexie: No. No, you should have done everything that you could. Meredith: That was everything I could. Lexie: Well, what kind of doctor are you? Meredith: What is this about? If you don't want to learn from me, that's fine. But I have to cover the pit today. So why don't you do both of us a favor and go help Bailey in the clinic? Lexie: Fine. Meredith: Fine. (Izzie sits down at a table with George) Izzie: Pretend I'm not here. Pretend I'm not busting in on you and pictures of... really disturbing tongues. But really old guy is giving me a hard time. I liked him so much better when he was sleeping, which he's not. He's awake. You've probably already heard. But my point is, is that he's stubborn. He's stubborn and really old, and he's telling me I'm an idiot for thinking yore gonna leave Callie. Seriously? We're in this together. You're gonna tell her tonight, right? George? George: I...I...I have to get this research done. Izzie: You're not gonna tell her. George: Wasn't it just yesterday when you said that you didn't want me to tell her? Izzie: Fine! Forget it. Just play with your stupid pictures of tongues. (Alex, and Norman go to talk to Mrs. Chapman) Norman: We got the tox screen back, Mrs. Chapman. Your son's not on drugs. Mrs. Chapman: You're sure? There's no drugs in his system? Norman: No, came back clean. Your son is fine. Mrs. Chapman: This is not my son, Dr. Shales. It's... not. Alex: Maybe we should order some more tests. Norman: You know, he's a teenager. I've raised four of 'em myself. Teenagers don't like to do their homework, they talk back to their parents, and they never come out of their rooms. Hunter: You have apple hair. I threw a pancake in the river, a pancake! Mrs. Chapman: Hunter... Alex: Do you know what you just said? Hunter: I'm... I'm not sure. Alex: Did you mean to say it? Hunter: No, I...I was trying to say that I wanted to go home. Mrs. Chapman: Oh, my god. Alex: Yeah, we need to do a full neuro exam. Order a head CT and labs, now. (Connie Williams room) Joanne: It's gonna be okay, you know? It is. It's gonna be okay. Connie: Do you think so? Joanne: Dr. Sloan's gonna do this fancy new surgery. Maybe you'll make it into the medical journals. Maybe be famous. Connie: What if the surgery doesn't work? What if this is my last chance to talk? I still have so much to say. Elaine: Say it now, Connie. Joanne: Don't be so morbid. The surgery will work. You'll be fine. Elaine: She should say it all now, Jo, just in case. She shouldn't have any more regrets. You can tell us anything, Connie. We're your best friends. George: You should tell them. I'm sorry. I don't mean to pry. But if you have something you want to say, you should say it. I've been here a while. I've been here long enough to know that things don't always go the way that you want them to, and if there's something you want to say, you should say it. Connie: Joanne, you've gotta stop wearing those pants. Joanne: What? Connie: Those pants make your ass look like two puppies are struggling to get out. As a matter of fact, all of your pants are too tight. You have to buy some new pants. And, Elaine, your breath is god-awful. Elaine: My breath? Connie: I mean, you need to see a doctor or something because I know you have good hygiene, but sweet god, your breath is bad. And you've got to get a new hairdo. The '80s are over, honey. (Izzie enters Charlie's room, Tyler is there) Izzie: What now? Tyler: He keeps pulling off his monitor leads. I told him he can pull 'em off all day, he's still not gonna die. Charlie: I'm sick and tired of waiting. Izzie: Yeah? Well, I'm sick and tired of coming to your room every five minutes. Charlie: Sorry, blondie. It's time I took things into my own hands. Izzie: Oh, you know what? You want to die? Fine. Here. Let me help you. You missed this one. Damn. You're still with us. Oh, wait. This looks promising. A nice, thick wire. How's that? Any luck? No? Well, no wonder. That's why. It's attached to this lamp. okay. Well, let's see what else we got. Tyler: Dr. Stevens. Izzie: What? Tyler: Dr. Stevens, he's not breathing. Izzie: What? Tyler: He doesn't have a pulse. He's in cardiac arrest. Izzie: I swear to god, I didn't do anything. (Izzie, Tyler and the crash team are trying to revive Charlie) Izzie: Are the epi and atropine in? Tyler: Epi's in. I'm pushing atropine now. Izzie: Hold CPR, let's see what happens. Tyler: Looks like v-fib. Izzie: Charge the paddles,300. Clear. Tyler: No change. Izzie: Charge again. Clear. Doctor: I've got a pulse. Izzie: Charlie? Charlie? Charlie: Stop saving my life. (George is walking through the hall with Connie on her way to surgery) Connie: I can't believe I said all that. Do you believe I said all that? George: Not really, no. Connie: You think I hurt their feelings? I mean, real bad hurt their feelings? You think they'll forgive me? You told me. You told me to tell them. You told me to say everything. You said it would be okay. George: I'm really sorry. (Lexie enters the clinic and walks over to Bailey) Lexie: Dr. Bailey, Dr. Grey sent me down here to work with you. Bailey: Oh, she did, did she? And why is that? Lexie: Truthfully? Uh, she didn't want to work with me anymore. She kicked me out. Bailey: You can go and tell Dr. Grey that the clinic is not a dumping ground for strays. We are not the island of broken interns. Please go tell her that. Lexie: Please don't make me do that. I...I can't work with her, with Meredith Grey. I...I...I can't work with her because I can't look at her. 'Cause she hates me, she hates my dad, she obviously hated my mother, and I am...please just...just let me work down here today. Please, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Kid in curtain three needs stitches. Go. (Derek enters the CT examining room where Alex and Norman are looking at Hunter's CT) Derek: Okay, what do you got, Karev? Alex: A teenager came in...the clinic this morning, he was lethargic, irritable, dysphasic. Derek: Right. I'm sorry. I don't know you. Norman: Uh, Norman Shales, up from UCLA. Derek: Are you neuro? I thought I knew all the neuro guys down there. Alex: Norman's an intern, Dr. Shepherd. My intern. Derek: Welcome to the program. Norman: Thank you. Derek: Good. Okay, what do we got? Oh, look at this. Kid's got hydrocephalus. It's pushing up against his Broca's area. Yeah, which explains the screwed up speech. Norman: I was sure it was drugs. Well, that's what happens when you're...you're a pharmacist for 30 years. You're sure that everybody's hooked on pills or reefer. Derek: Right. Norman: I won't make that mistake again. No, sirree. Derek: Right. Okay. Um, we need to put in a shunt. Yeah, schedule an OR. Then we'll go talk to Hunter and his mom. Norman: Will do, captain. (Norman leaves the room) Alex: Guy doesn't know when to shut up. He does it with the patients, too. Derek: Well, you're his resident. Alex: I know, I know, but it'd be like yelling at my grandfather. (Cristina walks up to Izzie who is at the nurse's station.) Cristina: Hey. I heard about really old guy. What's the matter? Couldn't find his LVAD wire? Izzie: It was a coincidence, and he's still alive. Cristina: Well, have fun with really old guy. I'm off to do Meredith's... hemi-glossectomy. (Cristina walks away and Meredith walks up) Izzie: Oh, hey. Hey, has George said anything to you... Meredith: She's faking. She's faking sadness, pretending to be sad to steal my surgeries. Izzie: Okay, I have a really old guy trying to kll himself and problems of my own. So I don't have time for the two of you and your fake drama. (Izzie is in Charlie's room) Charlie: A person wants to die, you let them. It's polite. Izzie: Not in a hospital, it's not. In a hospital, it's a lawsuit. Charlie: I don't like you. Izzie: Really? 'Cause I thought we were BFFs. Charlie: You know what? Just for that, I'm dying right now. (Charlie strains really hard) Izzie: That might make you poop your pants, but it's not gonna make you die. Charlie: Oh, damn it. Izzie: You really think he's not gonna leave his wife? Charlie: I think if a person wants to do something, like die, they do it. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there's hope. Maybe he'll tell her, and you two will get together and end up happy. Izzie: You think? Charlie: Not that I'll be alive to see it. Izzie: You're not dying, Charlie. Not on my watch. Charlie: dad man walking. Izzie: I don't see much walking, Charlie. (Bailey enters the room where Callie still sitting) Bailey: Uh, you know Yang and Grey are playing musical chairs with their interns? Callie: Oh? Bailey: I mean, I just thought that might interest you, seeing as how one of Yang's interns is actually one of Grey's relatives...and the two Grey's are having some kind of family feud. I'm just saying, it would probably be best if the residents stuck with their own interns in the future. Callie: Yeah. I got it. Thanks. Bailey: You plan to hide out in here all day long, or you plan to emerge at some point and do your job? Callie: Why would I come out there to do my job when you clearly do it so much better? I'm doing paperwork, Miranda, because I don't have any more fight in me. I...I don't want to fight you. I don't fight my...I...I don't...I don't want to fight today. So...I'm doing paperwork. Okay? (Mark and Richard are in Connie's surgery) Mark: The graft's a perfect fit. Richard: It's got good vascularization. Mark: And at this rate, you may actually get to go on that date with Adele. Richard: Yeah, I better. Can't very well have her take me back if I cancel our first date. George: Where you taking her, chief? Richard: Oh, there's a nice little Chinese restaurant we like to go to. Mark: Hmm. Cristina: What happens next? Richard: Dr. Sloan, I don't... Mark: I know. George: Is everything okay Mark: Um...we're not sure. George: What does that mean? Mark: It means we've never done this before. (They are still trying to figure out how to proceed with Connie's surgery) Richard: What about if we coapt the lingual nerve underneath here? Mark: No, we'd end up losing the vascular supply. The graft might not work at all. Richard: She likes to talk, Sloan. She likes to talk a lot. Mark: We need an extra set of hands. Someone who knows nerves. Richard: O'Malley, get Dr. Shepherd. George: Yes, sir. (George is walking in the hall with Derek) Derek: A functional muscle transfer of the tongue? George: It was looking good for a while, but, um... (Derek walks toward the OR and George sees Izzie) George: I'll be right there. Derek: Yeah. (George enters a conference room with Izzie) George: Izzie... Izzie: What? What is there to say, George, I'm a blondie. I'm the other woman. I'm a bad '50s clich�? George: No, no, no. We're not in this together. Izzie: Wow. Great. Well, thank you for letting me know. George: Hey no, no. No. You don't get to be mad here. Izzie: Seriously? We said... George: No, no, no, no. There is no "we. " It's just me. I'm the one who has to tell Callie. I'm the one who has to destroy her. This is not about you and me. This is about her and me. I'm ending a marriage to a wonderful woman. Me. I'm the one. It's not you. You... it's not something you just blurt out. It's not. I'll do it. I will do it. You have to back off and let me do it. Izzie: I'm sorry. (Bailey and Meredith are walking in the ER together) Bailey: You traded...a hemi-glossectomy for the pit? Meredith: It's a long story. Bailey: A long story that ends with you pawning off Lexie Grey on me? Meredith: I had her do an intubation on a dad guy. It's something you used to have us do all the time. I was trying to teach her. Whatever she told you... Bailey: She told me you hate her. Meredith: I don't... Bailey: And that you hated her mother... Meredith: I didn't say that. Bailey: Her mother, who came to you with a case of hiccups and died in our hospital. Do you see where I'm going with this? Meredith: She's not my intern. Bailey: No, she's your sister, and you haven't had a kind word to say to her since she got here. And you were her mother's doctor. Now what is she supposed to think? Look, whether you like it or not, your job is to help that girl be a better doctor. So help her. (Izzie walks up to Tyler) Izzie: You paged me? Tyler: Really old guy...He's checked out AMA. He's leaving the hospital. Izzie: What? He can't leave. He's sick. He can barely walk, and I got him lobster. (Alex enters the clinic to find Hunter on the floor) Alex: I got a 911.What happened? Nurse: He collapsed. Mrs. Chapman: He started talking that nonsense talk and... Alex: His pupil's blown. His brain's starting to herniate. Page shepherd. Norman, take over the bag. We gotta get him up on the bed. Mrs. Chapman: What's happening? Alex: Count of three. One, two, three. Mrs. Chapman: What's happening to my son? Alex: Spinal fluid's backing up. It's putting pressure on his brain. Nurse: Shepherd's not answering his page. Alex: Try it again. (Bailey walks up) Alex: What do I do? Bailey: Uh, hyperventilation... mannitol... I don't know everything. Go. Get Shepherd. Go. (Alex runs to and enters Connie's OR) Alex: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: I'm a little busy right now making medical history, Karev. Alex: Hunter Chapman's brain is herniating. His right pupil just blew. Derek: Okay, you need to do exactly what I say, or that kid's gonna be dad in the next ten minutes. Can you do that? Alex: Yes, sir. Derek: Okay, get the biggest needle you can find. (Alex runs into the hall, grabs a needle then runs over to Hunter) Mrs. Chapman: Dr. Karev, what's going on? Bailey: Where's Shepherd? Mrs. Chapman: Dr. Karev Norman: I...I think it might help Mrs. Chapman... Mrs. Chapman: What are you doing? Alex: Get her out of here. Norman: Well, she is the boy's mom. Alex: Get her out of here, Norman. Get her out! Mrs. Chapman: What are you doing? Norman: Mrs. Chapman, he's trying to help. (Norman moves Mrs. Chapman from the bedside) Mrs. Chapman: What are you doing? Bailey: What are you doing? Alex: Hold his head. Shepherd told me what to do. (Alex sticks the needle in behind Hunter's eye) (Izzie enters Charlie's room) Izzie: Charlie...you can't go. I know that you think your life is over. I know you feel like you don't have anybody. But your life's not over and...and you have me. You have me. I need you. I need somebody to talk to. Because I think you may have been right before. I don't think George is gonna leave his wife. And I need you to tell me what to do. I...I need some...you can't go, Charlie. Charlie? (She walks over to him and finds that he has died) Charlie? Crap. (Alex and Mrs. Chapman are at Hunter's side) Mrs. Chapman: All this time he was telling me the truth Alex: Once we get the shunt in, any excess spinal fluid will drain to his abdomen. He's gonna be okay. Excuse me. (Alex walks over to Norman) Alex: I'm sorry I unloaded on you, Norman. You know how it is? Heat of the moment. Bailey: Don't apologize to him. Alex: What? Norman: Oh, Dr. Bailey's right. It... Bailey: Shut up, Norman. I'm not talking to you. He got in your way. He's been doing it all day, and when that happens...when an intern gets in the way of a resident...you're not doing what's best for your patient. Now you almost missed diagnosing that kid today because Norman here thought it was drugs. So don't apologize. He should be yelled at. Alex: Dr. Bailey... he's as old as the hills. Bailey: I don't care how old he is, Dr. Karev. He's still an intern, and interns are basically teenagers. We are not hard on them because it's fun. We're hard on them because this is a life-and-death job. They need to learn that. There is a reason why we have a pecking order in a hospital. It saves lives. (Mark, Derek and Richard are in the scrub room cleaning up from the surgery) Mark: I think that woman's gonna be able to talk for the rest of her life thanks to us. Richard: I think I still got it. Mark: I think you do, too. Now we just gotta figure out what you're gonna tell Adele. Richard: Oh, man. I forgot about that. Mark: Yeah. First off, don't tell her you want to move back in. Richard: No? Mark: Reeks of desperation. It's a deal breaker. Trust me. Derek: You know what? I can't take this anymore. You guys are kidding yourselves. You know how close you idiots came to that woman losing her tongue, to her never speaking again? Oh, yeah, you were a couple of cowboys in there, telling yourselves you can do this, acting like the big boys. You had no business doing that surgery. No business. Lucky I came in when I did. Shame on you. And shame on you. As for Adele, tell her you can't imagine your life without her. Tell her for the last month you been walking around this hospital at night just thinking about her. Tell her the truth. I'm sorry I called you an idiot. (Derek leaves the scrub room) (Meredith walks up to Cristina in the hall) Meredith: Hey. So I've been thinking about how you're sad, and what I can do to help. Cristina: Oh, you have another surgery? Meredith: No, that's not what you need. Cristina: Well, it kind of is. Meredith: No, what you need is me and my time. So I thought we could go back to my house and get into our pajamas. Just sit and talk about this whole Burke thing and really get to the root of your feelings. Just talk all night long if we have to. Cristina: Talk. Meredith: Talk...and cry. Cry. Cristina: You know. Meredith: You're damn right I know, surgery stealer. Cristina: So, person-who-is-sleeping-with-Derek? Meredith: How'd you know that? Cristina: What, you think I'm too fragile to handle your sex life? Meredith: Well, he did leave you at the altar. And I'm your person. Cristina: How, by...by "protecting me"? That's not how to be my person. That's not what we do. You know that. I'm dealing. Okay? The best I can. So if you need to take care of someone, you're gonna need to take care of someone else. Okay? Meredith: Fine. But you owe me a surgery. Cristina: Yeah, well, you owe me sex details. (Alex walks up) Alex: Are we doing this or not? (They all enter Charlie's room) Cristina: What are we supposed to say? We didn't even know the guy. Izzie: We ate lunch in here for a year. The least we can do is say a few kind words about him. George: Me? He...he didn't snore too loudly... Meredith: He, um... never complained. And he always took his meds. Alex: Hardly ever farted. Meredith: Alex. Alex: Fine. Uh, he had 12 surgeries this year, and he...he lived through them. That's...that's impressive. Izzie: Thank you, Alex. Cristina? Cristina: Uh, I got to practice stuff on him...central lines and IVs...it was good practice. Izzie: Um...Charlie, the truth is...you were a bastard. You were. You were mean and stubborn and just...a bastard. But you were a bastard who knew what you wanted. And you stuck to your g*n and proved that if you want something badly enough, if you're...determined enough and patient enough, eventually it will happen. It will. And that gives me hope, so...thanks for that. Bye-bye, Charlie. MVO: The truth is painful... (George is in Connie's room) George: It went really well. Your friends, uh...I am so sorry. I haven't seen them. (Joanne and Elaine enter) Joanne: How'd she do? George: Great. She did great. Joanne: She's gonna talk again? George: Yeah, the chances are very good. Joanne: In that case, we have a few things we'd like to say. your first husband, he put his hand on my ass every chance he got. Elaine: And your second husband, he spat when he talked, and plus, he was ugly. We know that you thought he was handsome, but the man was a troll. Joanne: And that guy you dated last year, comb-over guy...Oh, my god. MVO: Deep down, nobody wants to hear it, especially when it hits close to home. (Meredith walks up to Lexie who is in the clinic) Lexie: What? Meredith: I have your mother's death note here. Everything that happened on the day she died is in here, and I know because I wrote it. So, I'd like to go over with you if that's okay. Lexie: Yeah. Meredith: Ok first of all let me just say that everything that happened that day every set back there was one percent chance of each of those things happening one percent and your mother was the one percent. She came in complaining of persisting hiccups. We did an endoscopy out of obligation. Lexie: You did an endoscopy? Meredith: So it would be out-patient procedure, we wanted to avoid major surgery. For what it's worth I was very fond of your mother. She was...I was very fond of her. She got bacterial endocarditis. MVO: Sometimes we tell the truth because the truth is all we have to give. (Bailey enters the room where Callie still is) Bailey: I've been having trouble with this whole pecking order of things it's...I've been having trouble cause I'm used to be a number one. But I am not number one, not any more. So the best I can come up with is to be number two. The best damn number two this hospital has ever seen But your number two. I will... I will help you. We'll be like a team. Because...look, girl, you just seem to be having a hard time and I know I am having a hard time but together...we could... do this. I just think we can do this together. MVO: Sometimes we tell the truth because we need to say aloud to really hear for ourselves. (Ale, Lexie, George and some interns are in the elevator) Female Intern: You got to reattach the woman's tongue. George: I was there, I didn't actually do the reattaching. Male Intern: Still you are the intern they wanted on that case. Alex: He is a repeater. Male Intern: What? Alex: Your big hero here, he was an intern last year. That's why he got to know some of the stuff. He's already been through it. But if you want learn from someone really, really learn, go to a resident, not this dude. George: All right, he's right if you want to emulate someone, it's definitely not me. I'm not that guy. MVO: And sometimes we tell the truth because we just can't help ourselves. (Norman stares at Alex) Alex: What the hell are you looking at? Interns. MVO: And sometimes we tell them because...we owe them at least that much (George enters the hotel room where Callie is) Callie: Just say it. George: I slept with Izzie.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x03 - Let the Truth Sting"}	foreverdreaming
2007 GREY'S ANATOMY 4x04: The Heart of the Matter Original Airdate: 10/18/2007 Written by: Allan Heinberg Directed by: Randy Zisk Provided by TVTDB.com (Seattle scenes) MVO: In life, only one thing is certain...apart from death and taxes...no matter how hard you try, no matter how good your intentions, you are going to make mistakes. (George and Callie are in their hotel room) George: Callie. MVO: You're going to hurt people. You're going to get hurt. And if you ever want to recover... George: You haven't said anything in...in...just say something. Please. Anything. MVO: There's really only one thing you can say. Callie: I forgive you. George: What? Callie: You made a mistake. But we took vows...till death do us part...so...I forgive you. (George is rushing through the hospital) George: Izzie, why aren't you picking up your phone? You need to pick up your phone. I just talked to Callie and... (George passes Meredith who is in the elevator) Meredith: George. George: I gotta find Izzie. Meredith: We have rounds in five minutes. George: Right after I find Izzie. (George rushes off and Derek enters the elevator) Derek: You wanna go away with me this weekend? Meredith: Why would I want to go away with you? Derek: Because of this. (He kisses her) Meredith: We didn't go away when we were a couple. Now we're not a couple, and not couples have no reason to go away together. Derek: Meredith, you're not paying attention. I'm talking about 48 uninterrupted hours of this. (He kisser her again) Meredith: Where would we go? Derek: Wine country. Meredith: Wine country sounds like a couples' place. Derek: Well, there's wine, there's country, and you wouldn't see any of it. We'd be in bed all weekend. Meredith: Oh, a weekend of sex. Derek: Now you're paying attention. Meredith: Well, I would have to get someone to cover for me. Derek: Okay, so you're in? Meredith: 48 uninterrupted hours of this. I'm in. (Cristina walks past as Meredith exits the elevator) Cristina: Oh, great. I'm stuck in the pit protecting smack heads and gng bangers with my idiot interns, and you're getting McDreamied in the elevator? Meredith: Really, smack heads and gng bangers at Seattle Grace, huh? Cristina: My point is, I hate interns. Meredith: Well, Lexie's not that bad, is she? Cristina: Oh, are we not hating her anymore? Meredith: Oh, no. We still hate the idea of her. We just realized we don't have a reason to hate the actual person. Cristina: She's an intern. That's reason enough. Meredith: I think you may be the new nzi. Cristina: Damn right. (To the interns nearby) Meredith: I don't see any charts. (Meredith walks up to Alex) Meredith: Will you work for me on Saturday? Alex: What's in it for me? Meredith: What do you want? Alex: Take Norman off my hands today. Meredith: Who? Alex: The world's oldest intern. I've got my interns in the pit, and he's only gonna slow me down. Meredith: Ageist. Alex: Deal? Meredith: Fine. (George rushes by again) Meredith: Rounds. George: Still can't find Izzie. Meredith: I'm gonna have to put you in the clinic if you miss rounds. George: Oh, the clinic! (Bailey is in the clinic) Bailey: Uh, Ms. Sales, hi. I'm Dr. Bailey. Oh, you are? Will: Uh, the boyfriend who warned her not to read on the Stairmaster. Ruthie: That's how I did this. I fell off last night. I took a ton of ibuprofen, but when I woke up this morning, it was huge and hideous. Bailey: How much ibuprofen did you take? Ruthie: I usually take some everyday anyway, because of the gym, so I doubled the dose, but it did nothing for me. Bailey: Okay, let's get some x-rays and then... Ruthie: Actually, can I just get a sht of cortisone or something? I'm supposed to meet my trainer this afternoon. Bailey: Uh, Ms. Sales, I can't treat you until I find out what's wrong with you. (George rushes in) George: Have you seen Dr. Stevens? Bailey: Check the pit. George: Right. Ruthie: What time do you think we'll be done? Just so I can tell my trainer. (George enters the ER) George: Lexie! Sorry. Uh, have you seen Dr. Stevens? Lexie: No. Have you seen Dr. Yang? George: No. Lexie: She told me to meet her here in the pit, and she's not here. I don't want to give that woman any more reasons to hate me. George: Good for you. Lexie: I'm prepared. I'm gonna answer every question correctly. And I'm not gonna take any more of her crap. (Cristina enters the ER) Cristina: Three! Incoming, let's move. (Derek is in the trauma room with Adam and Stanley Singer) Stanley: He got ht during a scrimmage. Derek: Are you the coach? Adam: He's my dad. Stanley: And his coach. He was charging the receiver after the kickoff. He got blocked, had his head down, couldn't see the other guy coming. Adam: I had my head down because the guy blocking me was holding it down. Stanley: You could've gotten past that guy. Derek: I need you to leave the room. Okay, let's cut him out of his equipment. I need the saw. Dr. Grey, I need you to help me sab his neck and his head, please. It's very important, Adam, that you not move your head. I need you to keep perfectly still. Don't move. Relax. (George rushes past the Chief) Richard: O'Malley, what's the hurry? George: Sorry, I can't talk, chief. (George runs into a cart) Richard: O'Malley? George: I...sorry, I...I just gotta find Izzie. Richard: She's at the third floor nurses' station. George: Oh. Thanks. Richard: Oh, and...and when you find her, tell her Dr. Torres is looking or her. (Izzie is walking in the hall with her interns) Izzie: Now I know charting doesn't seem as exciting as surgery, but it is every bit as important. Believe me when I tell you, people, penmanship saves lives. (George is rushing through halls) George: Pick up your phone. What kind of doctor doesn't pick up their phone? (Izzie is with her interns) Izzie: Is that a 7 or is that a 9? If I have to ask myself that question in the middle of an emergency, your patient is dad. You klled him with your handwriting. Think about that. (Callie walks up) Izzie: Callie. Hey. Hi. Callie: We have to talk. Izzie: Okay. Um, about? Callie: George told me. Izzie: He told you? Callie: Everything. Cafeteria, noon, you and me. Be there. Intern: Dude, is she gonna kick her ass? (Izzie and George are in the hall) Izzie: She forgave you? George: She said I had a rough year, that people make mistakes, and that...that I made a mistake. Izzie: Oh, so now I'm a mistake? (To her interns) Back off! George: No, she said that. I didn't say that. Izzie: What did you say? George: Um, I didn't expect her to forgive me. I expected...rage, uh, bloodshed. Izzie: No, she's saving all her rage and bloodshed for me. She's gonna kll me in the cafeteria at lunch. George: No, she wouldn't. Izzie: She breaks bones for a living, George. She's crazy. George: No, she's not crazy. Izzie: Well, she is if she thinks I'm not gonna put up a fight. (Lexie, Cristina and Derek are in the viewing room) Lexie: I can't believe that kid's dad. I mean, his son is paralyzed, and the guy's still riding him. Cristina: Focus more on the medicine, three, and less on the tragedy. Derek: Three? Is that a nickname? Lexie: You could say that. Derek: So how would you proceed, Dr. Grey? Lexie: Oh, um...you won't be able to operate unless you realign his spine, would you? Derek: And how would you do that? Lexie: Traction halo? Derek: Very impressive, Dr. Grey. Your intern year's off to a good start. How's it going? How are you and Meredith? Lexie: It's weird, the whole family thing. And plus, I think she might still hate me. Derek: She doesn't hate you. Lexie: Really? Did she say that? Cristina: You know, why don't you go see if Mrs. Cooley's dressings need changing? Derek: Yang, why don't you go see if Mrs. Cooley's dressing needs changing? Cristina: Certainly. (Meredith is at the desk with Mark) Meredith: Dr. Sloan, Dr. Norman Shales. Mark: Oh, Dr. Shales, call me Mark. Norman: Thank you. Mark: I thought you were on my service. Meredith: I am. He's my intern. Norman: I know, right? It's like, "seriously, you're an intern?" But it's seriously true. Seriously. Mark: Glad to have you aboard Norman. Norman: So is he the one you call, uh...McDreamy or, Mc, uh, Sleazy, or Mc, uh, wait a minute, what is it? Meredith: Norman, we have labs to deliver. Norman: Yeah. Meredith: Labs and discharges. Norman: Uh, this one's being discharged to hospice? Meredith: When there's nothing else we can do. Norman: So we have to tell someone they're dying? Meredith: Don't worry. I'll teach you the protocol. Norman: McSteamy! He's the one you girls call McSteamy. (Callie enters the x-ray room where Bailey and George are) Callie: You paged me, Dr. Bailey? Oh, I didn't know you were... George: I'm in the clinic. Or I was... Callie: What have you got? Bailey: Ruthie Sales. Says she twisted her ankle falling off the Stairmaster. Callie: She didn't twist it. She crushed it. We should book an OR right away. Bailey: Dr. Torres, you don't think we should run a few tests first? Find out why Ruthie's bones are so fragile in the first place? Callie: She's osteoporotic. I see it in older women all the time. Bailey: Now you're seeing it in a 28 year old. Callie: Oh, right. Call me when you get the test results. (Callie leaves) George: I can't talk about it with you. Bailey: Well, is she all right? George: Yeah. (Meredith is walking in the hall with Norman) Meredith: So when giving a patient the bad news, you want to be polite and detached, but not cold. Norman: How can you be detached but not cold? Meredith: You show that you care without actually allowing yourself to care, because if you get too emotional, then they get scared, and then they get emotional, and that's bad. Norman: Seriously? Meredith: Stop with the seriously. Norman: Uh, I'm sorry. Meredith: I know it must be hard being older than most of us, but I think you're gonna go a lot further if you just let everything else go and focus on the medicine. (Cristina walks up) Cristina: Hey, are you aware that McDreamy and the other Grey are bonding? Meredith: Bonding? Cristina: Over their mutual Meredith Greyness. Meredith: What do you mean? They're talking about me? What are they saying? Cristina: Oh, I don't know. He's making me deal with his patients while they focus on what's really important...you. Meredith: Cristina! What was I saying? Norman: You were saying how important it was to focus on the medicine. Meredith: Just give me the chart. (Cristina, Lexie, and Derek are in Adam's room) Cristina: First we're going to apply halo, which uses weights and traction to pull your spine back into place. Adam: Traction? Lexie: Like at the gym. We stretch your upper body using weights until the tension pops the spine into position. Cristina: Except unlike at the gym, Dr. Shepherd needs to attach the traction device directly to your head by screwing two bolts into your skull. Adam: That sounds painful. Stanley: Painful is if he doesn't fix your spine. Painful is you never walk again. Okay. We gonna do this thing or what? (Meredith and Norman are in a patients room) Meredith: I told you not to get too emotional. Norman: I couldn't help it. What now? Meredith: Go apologize one last time. Norman: Once again, ma'am, we are very, very sorry...very sorry. And now? Meredith: Now we slowly and respectfully back out of the room. (Izzie enters a curtain in the clinic where Alex is) Izzie: Alex, I need a favor. Alex: I don't have time for favors. I'm working here. Izzie: Well, what are you doing at lunch? Alex: According to my interns, I'm watching Torres kick your ass all up and down the cafeteria. Izzie: How do they know? Alex: So it's true. What'd you do to her? Izzie: Nothing. Alex: Dude. (Shouting is heard from a nearby room. Alex and Izzie enter to find Adele and Camille) Doctor: We need a little help here! Adele: Oh, thank god. Somebody I know. Will somebody please make sure they page my husband? Alex: Is that? Izzie: It's the chief's niece. Doctor: Camille Travis, 18, I tried intubating 3 times. Izzie: There's some kind of obstruction. Arlene: My baby can't breathe. Doctor: Sats staying down. They're at 82%. Izzie: She needs a surgical airway. Somebody get me a crike tray. Alex: How many emergency crikes have you done? Izzie: Including this one? One. Alex: Dude, it's the chief's niece. Doctor: Pulse is getting weaker. Izzie: So we better not screw this up. Adele: What are you doing? Trying to help her breathe. Arlene: She just slit her throat! Izzie: Suction. I need suction. Get the retractors in. Alex: There's so much blood. You didn't ht an artery, did you? Izzie: No, not on purpose. Adele: Oh, god. Oh, god. Izzie: Get the tube. Adele: Oh, god. Doctor: Sats are going up. Izzie: Oh, we did it. (Richard enters) Adele: Oh, Richard! What the hell are you doing to my niece? (Alex, Izzie and Richard are in the OR) Richard: One thing this child did not need was another surgery. Alex: She wasn't breathing, chief. Izzie: We didn't know what else to do. Richard: You did the right thing. But Camille was diagnosed with ovarian cancer when she was 14. She's had both ovaries removed, a hysterectomy and now this... Alex: There it is, the mass. Izzie: No wonder she couldn't breathe. Richard: I can take it out. But we won't know how many more there are until we do further studies. Izzie: I'm so sorry, chief. Richard: She bat it twice before. She'll bat it again. (Meredith and Norman walk up to Cristina) Meredith: I just had to tell a 48-year-old woman that she's gonna die. Cristina: Yeah? I wish I could tell a 24-year-old woman she's gonna die. (She looks up to see Derek and Lexie talking) Meredith: I have gone out of my way to be nice to her, and this is what she does, talks about me behind my back? Cristina: When were you nice to her? Meredith: I was nice...once. My point is... (Lexie walks up) Lexie: Hey, Meredith. Hey, Norman. Norman: 'Sup, Lexie? Meredith: Come on, Norman. Lexie: Um...Dr. Shepherd asked that we meet in Adam's room in ten minutes. You could at least acknowledge that you heard me. Cristina: You're using the Grey sister angle to get in good with the attendings. I get that. But you're here on my license. So if you do anything, like kll someone, it's on me. So for the rest of the day, you're gonna hug the wall. You're not gonna say anything, you're not gonna do anything. You're an intern. Are we clear...three? Lexie: Lexie. Cristina: What? Lexie: It's Lexie, or Grey. It's not three. I have a name. (Bailey, George and Callie are in Ruthie's room) George: Your blood tests show low electrolyte levels, low calcium and low vitamin D. Have you been dieting? Will: She just lost 40 pounds. Ruthie: Will told me if I ever got back down to a size 4,we'd move in together. Bailey: How romantic. Ruthie: We both just needed motivation. I told him I wouldn't live with a smoker, so he quit smoking. Bailey: The problem is, even if Dr. Torres is able to repair your fracture, it won't do any good unless you're eating more and working out less. Am I right, Dr. Torres? Dr. Torres...hey, are you all right? Callie: Uh, uh...Bailey's right. Will: So what, you're saying that you won't operate unless she puts on a bunch of weight? Callie: No, but, um... Will: Then why are we still talking about this? We came here to get her leg fixed. So fix her leg. Callie: Okay. (Mark is at the nurses desk when Norman and Meredith walk up) Mark: How'd that discharge-\|to-hospice patient go? Meredith: Not great. There was crying and tears and...more tears. Mark: Tears? Really? Such a tough old bird. I thought he'd take it like a man. Meredith: "He'd take it like a man"? Mark: What, I'm sexist now? Meredith: No, "he" as in "him"? Mark: Joel Hanson in 2212. Meredith: Not Gretchen Bitzer in 2213? Norman: Oh, dear. I thought that "2" was a "3." Mark: Dr. Grey, did you and your intern tell a woman who came in to have her moles removed that she was dying? Norman: Oh, dear. I mean, crap. Oh, crap. (Adam's room) Stanley: You hear that? Like a weight room. There's nothing to be scared of. He's been weight training since he was 8 years old. Cristina: What did I say about you and the wall? Derek: Dr. Yang, this is still a teaching hospital, isn't it? Cristina: Yes, sir. Derek: You need to get a little closer if you want to learn something today, Dr. Grey. Okay, Adam, I'm going to attach the tongs now. I need you to stay perfectly still during this procedure. Let the weights do all the work. Okay, you're gonna feel a little pressure, but with the meds we've given you, you shouldn't feel any pain. All right. Here we go. (Alex and Izzie are in the scrub room) Izzie: Can you imagine being 14 years old and having some doctor tell you you've got cancer? What do you do with that? Alex: Well, you fight. Camille's a fighter. You two have that in common. So what's it gonna be, Stevens gets her bones broken or Torres gets taken to the trailer park? Izzie: Neither. It's not happening. But if it does, will you pull her off me? Alex: You gonna tell me what you did to her? Izzie: You have to promise not to say anything to anybody. Swear. Alex: I swear. Jeez. Izzie: I slept with George. I know. I'm a terrible person. Which is why I'm gonna let her get one good punch in. Maybe two. I deserve it. No, one. Then you pull her off me. Alex: You slept with O'Malley? Izzie: Alex, you just said you wouldn't say anything. Alex: I won't, believe me. This...I'm embarrassed for you. (Norman and Meredith are walking through the hall) Meredith: You had one job... one job... read the charts. Norman: You want to yell at me some more? You can, because I am an intern and according to Dr. Bailey, yelling is how we learn. Meredith: Well, I'm not a very good yeller. Norman: Oh, I'm sure it just takes practice. Perhaps Ms. Bitzer will show us how it's done. Meredith: Just let me do all the talking. Norman: Ms. Bitzer... Meredith: Gretchen. Nurse: She left about an hour ago. Meredith: She's gone? Left the hospital? Norman: Feel like yelling now? (Richard is in Camille's room with Adele) Richard: Your CT results showed that not only is the cancer back, it's spread to your chest, lungs and throat. We have options, though. We can operate. We can be even more aggressive with the chemo and radiation than the last time. Camille: I just want to go home. Richard: We could try to treat you at home, but, Camille, you... Camille: No, you don't understand. I don't want any treatment. Arlene: What? Camille, don't say that. Camille: I've tried, mama. It's not working. I can't do it anymore. Adele: You can and you will. You have no choice. Camille: I'm 18 now, aunt Adele. I do have a choice. Adele: You may be 18,baby girl, but you are clearly not capable of making life-and-death decisions for yourself right now. Tell her, Richard. Richard: Camille... Camille: No, you tell her. Tell her how the radiation almost klled me last time, how I got hepatitis and my kidneys shut down and my skin was so raw I couldn't be touched. Richard: Camille... Camille: I'm dying. We all know that. I don't want to spend what little time I have left in this hospital. I want to spend time with my friends. I want to sleep in my own bed, and I want to be home. So please don't be my doctor right now. Be my uncle who loves me. Let me go home. (Adam's room) Cristina: Try not to move your head, Adam. Adam: I'm... I'm trying, but... I don't know how much longer I can take this. Stanley: You'll take as much as they give you, son. Okay, now come on! You can do this. Cristina: It's just another few pounds. Lexie: Dr. Yang, maybe we should... Cristina: No one asked you. Adam: I...I can't. Please take it off. Stanley: No, no. Can't quit. Push through it. Cristina: Okay, just one more plate. Stanley: Adam, you're strong. You can handle this. Want to be a quitter, do you? Huh, do you? Cristina: Okay, you know what? That's it. That's it. That's 20 pounds. Stanley: There, you did it. Right? Told you, you could do it. Adam: Somebody get him out. Please. Somebody get him out. Stanley: Adam, I'm just trying to help out. Adam: Please get out! Get out! Get out! Get out! Cristina: Adam, Adam, calm down. Try not to upset him. Adam. Adam, calm down. Adam: Get...get... Lexie: Adam, it's ok... it's okay. Cristina: What are you doing? Don't touch him. The slightest movement could...put his hand down, gently. Lexie: I'm so sorry. I forgot. Cristina: Now step away from the patient and leave the room. Get out right now or I will throw you out. (Derek walks in) Derek: Dr. Grey, take over for Dr. Yang. Dr. Yang, a word. You are a resident now. Your job is to teach interns, not abuse them. Cristina: I wasn't. She grabbed his... Derek: Until you learn to be less competitive and less selfish, you will not assist on my surgeries. You will observe them. Cristina: But she... Derek: You can go. (Adele, Richard and Arlene are walking through the hall) Adele: Arlene, she's just tired. She doesn't know what she's saying. Arlene: But she's right. She's not gonna get any better. Richard: We don't know that, Arlene. There's always a chance. Adele: Not if she doesn't get treatment. You've got to talk to her, Richard. You've...you have to convince her. She loves you. She trusts you. And she's the closest thing we have to a child of our own. Richard, I'm begging you. Please. Save our baby girl. (Meredith and Norman are at the nurse's station) Meredith: Again, Ms. Bitzer, it's very important that you call us back. (Mark walks up) Mark: You idiots still can't find her? Meredith: I called her home, her cell, her next of kin. Mark: I don't care if you have to call every Bitzer on the planet. Find her! Norman: I am really so very sorry about this. Meredith: It's not entirely your fault, Norman. You're just an intern. I should've double-checked the charts. I was distracted by things I shouldn't be distracted by. Norman: For what it's worth, Lexie Grey is a good girl. She's very sweet. I don't think she would say anything untoward...or uncool. Meredith: I have Bitzers to call. But, you know, you could take the...Norman? Norman? (Cristina and Meredith are in the cafeteria) Cristina: I'm not a bad resident, am I? Meredith: Don't ask me. I lost a patient today. Cristina: Oh, you klled someone? Meredith: Lost. Literally can't find. Cristina: Shepherd says I'm selfish and competitive. What the hell is wrong with that? I kick ass. I'm an excellent resident. Meredith: I'm not. In addition to losing my patient, I also lost my intern. Turned around, he was gone. AWOL. Cristina: See, what... what is wrong with these interns? We weren't like this. Meredith: We were great interns. Cristina: I was great. You were... you were good. (Izzie and Alex walk up and sit down) Izzie: You guys seen Callie? Meredith: No. Is it time for her to grind your bones into dust? Izzie: You don't think I can take her? Meredith: Are you guys really doing this? Izzie: You heard? Meredith: The whole hospital heard. Izzie: Yeah, well, that explains the line at the salad bar. Meredith: Well, what are you fighting about? Alex: Believe me, you don't want to know. Izzie: Alex. Alex: I'm just saying, whatever it is, it's not worth it. Izzie: Actually, it is. Some things are worth fighting for. (George is at the lab) Lab Tech: O'Malley. George: Picking up repeat labs for Ruthie Sayles. Lab Tech: So who's your money on, O'Malley? Guess you gotta back the wife, huh? George: What? What are you talking about? Lab Tech: The fight downstairs. Torres vs. Stevens. What are they fighting about anyway? George: Oh, that's just a rumor. It's not happening. Callie is way too mature for that. Lab Tech: That's not what my buddy in the cafeteria just said. (George takes off at a run) Lab Tech: O'Malley, your labs! George: Gotta go! I'll be right back! (Izzie is stretching in the cafeteria) Izzie: I'm just saying, I learned how to fight in a trailer park. Okay? Where'd she learn to fight, boarding school? Not quite the same thing. (Callie enters the cafeteria) Izzie: I'm a street fighter. I've got some badass in me. I could take a girl down. Meredith: Izzie. Alex: Punch with your left. Protect your face with your right. Cristina: No, your hands... protect your surgeon hands. Your face can heal. Izzie: Here we go. Callie: Stevens. Izzie: Let's do this. Let's go. Let's go. Callie: Go where? Izzie: You know, go. Callie: I wanted to talk. Izzie: You want to talk. You don't want to kick my ass? Callie: You thought I was gonna fight you? You... (Callie finally realizes how many people are in the cafeteria) Callie: That's cr...excuse me. (Callie leaves) Intern: That's a forfeit. Torres forfeits. Izzie: Oh, my god. Cristina: You were very ghetto fabulous. Izzie: Oh, my god. (George enters) George: What happened? Was there a fight? Alex: No. Guess they realized they were fighting over nothing. (Derek enters the office where Mark is) Derek: Hey, what do you thinks a better weekend getaway, Napa or Sonoma? Mark: I hope you don't mind if I kll your girlfriend. Derek: Well, first of all, she's not my girlfriend. Second of all, I do mind. Mark: Interns should be seen and not heard. They shouldn't talk to patients. Derek: That's how they learn. Mark: Which means I have to teach, and then I have to deal with their problems when they screw up. Derek: Meredith rarely screws up, and she's not an intern. So Napa or Sonoma, what do you think? Mark: Sonoma. Derek: Mm. Mark: Smaller hotels, fewer tourists. And Meredith...she's still an intern. Don't kid yourself. She's green, she's a baby, and the only difference between her and that old guy she's got trailing her is that you're not sleeping with the old guy. (Callie enters Ruthie's room) Callie: Sorry I'm late. Bailey: Well, I was just explaining the surgery. Since your bones have splintered, Dr. Torres will place metal plates and screws to hold the ankle together. Ruthie: How long will the recovery time be? Bailey: It's hard to say. You'll be in a cast 8 to 12 weeks. Will: Three months? Bailey: Right, Dr. Torres? Callie: Longer if she doesn't eat. Will: She eats. Callie: Not enough to keep her bones from snapping, but you don't seem too concerned about that. Will: What is your problem, lady? Callie: I don't have problem. I'm not the one who has to live with you. Will: You know what? This...you have a problem...Ruthie! (Ruthie is vomiting blood) Bailey: In here go ahead. In here. (George enters the OR where Ruthie's surgery has already started) George: I thought Ruthie wasn't going into surgery till tomorrow. Bailey: That's before she started vomiting blood. She's got a bleeding duodenal ulcer. Callie: How did we not see this? Bailey: She came in with a broken ankle. Her malnutrition and the amount of ibuprofen she's been taking, she's lucky to be alive. George: Why did she do this to herself? Bailey: 'Cause people are stupid and just want to be loved. That's the only reason anybody does anything. George: Asystole. Bailey: Ok, start CPR. (Adam's surgery) Lexie: You think he'll walk again? Derek: It's not impossible. Mm. We have a bleeder. I need you to cauterize the vein, Dr. Grey. Lexie: Oh, okay. I... I, um... I...I can't find it. I...I...I can't see where it starts. Um... it's coming too quickly. Cristina: Stop. Suction around it. You have to see where the bleed is coming from first. Follow the flow to the source. Good. Okay, now Bovie it. Lexie: Got it. Derek: Good job. Dr. Yang, if you don't mind stepping in? (Norman walks up to Meredith who is at the nurses station) Norman: Dr. Grey. Meredith: Norman, where have you been? Norman: I was... Meredith: Norman, do you think you can just cut out on me in the middle of a crisis? Norman: I...I went... Meredith: Where, Norman? Where did you go that was important enough to just disappear in the middle of a shift? Norman: Ms. Bitzer's apartment. Meredith: You went to Ms. Bitzer's apartment. Norman: I told her she had a bill outstanding. She's right behind me. Meredith: Oh. Norman: Oh, but if I may say so, your yelling has improved remarkably. Meredith: Thank you. Ms. Bitzer: I...I'm sorry I missed your calls. I didn't mean to cut out on my bill. It's just, I got a lot of living to do and not a lot of time to do it in. Meredith: Actually... Ms. Bitzer: I quit my job, dumped my loser boyfriend, told my boss where he could shove it, and bought a one-way ticket to Iceland, where the sun never sets, which is fine by me. I'll sleep when I'm dad, right? Meredith: You're, uh, not going to die, Ms. Bitzer. Ms. Bitzer: I'm not? Meredith: There was a mix-up with your labs. You're going to live, hopefully a very long, healthy life. Ms. Bitzer: I quit my job. I broke up with my boyfriend. I gave up my apartment. You know how hard it is to find an apartment...with parking? (Callie walks up to Will who is outside) Callie: I thought you quit smoking. Wasn't that the deal? Ruthie loses 40 pounds, you quit smoking? Will: My girlfriend's in emergency surgery. I think she'll forgive me for smoking. Callie: No, no, she won't, because she's dad. Ruthie's dad. Dr. Bailey tried to stop the bleeding, but because she was starving herself and over training, her heart couldn't take the strain. Will: You think this is my fault? She wanted to lose the weight. I just wanted her to be healthy. Callie: She was healthy 20 pounds ago. You just wanted her to be hot, especially if you we gonna move in with her, right? Will: No, that...I loved her. Callie: You didn't love her. You just didn't want to be alone or maybe, maybe she was good for your ego or...or maybe she made you feel better about your miserable life, but you didn't love her because you don't destroy the person that you love! (George steps between them) George: Callie! Will: Get her away from me, man. Get her away from me. Callie: You gonna ht me? You gonna ht me? Give me any excuse to kick somebody's ass today because I am dying to! Will: Don't touch me! Bailey: Dr. Torres! Uh, sir, we are so sorry for your loss. O'Malley, please take... George: Sir, why don't you come with me? Come on. Bailey: Okay, I'm gonna ask you one last time, are you all right? Callie: I'm fine. It's nothing. Bailey: Really? 'Cause nothing almost cost you your career just now. (Camille's room) Richard: The mass we removed from your throat was so big you couldn't breathe. Camille...what took you so long to come in? Camille: I knew the cancer wasn't gone. It's never been gone. It's never gonna be gone. And...don't tell my mom, but the truth is...I was hoping it would kll me before I had to come back here. I'm just so tired, uncle Richard. I am so, so tired. Richard: Camille...what I have here is a plan to keep you alive. It involves 12 oncologists,8 new drugs, six experimental treatments from three different continents. I have no idea if it'll work. But as your uncle...I'm begging you to take it. Because I know for a fact the world...my world...is a better place with you in it. However... as your doctor, I promise to do whatever you want. Camille: I just want to go home. Richard: Then let's get you home. (Izzie walks up to Callie in the hall) Izzie: Callie. Callie, wait. Please, wait. Please. I'm sorry...about the cafeteria. I didn't know that you wanted to talk to me. I thought you wanted to k*ll me. I'm sorry about everything. With George, I...I'm really sorry. I feel terrible. Callie: You feel terrible? You took advantage. He was your best friend. I tried to trust you...so much, I had convinced myself that it was all in my head, that I was crazy. But I wasn't, was I? And then you pull that thing in the cafeteria today? It's not bad enough that you humiliate me by getting in bed with my husband. You have to humiliate me at work, too. George might be the one that broke his vows, but you...we're women, Izzie. You did this to another woman. You...took something from me. You stole something from me like a petty little thief. You are the one who should be humiliated. You are the one who should be ashamed. You are the one who should... don't you dare come to me for forgiveness, you traitorous bitch. (Alex walks past Izzie who is sitting in the hall) Izzie: What, I'm invisible now? Alex: What do you want? Izzie: So you hate me now, too. Well, join the club. Alex: You and O'Malley? O'Malley! Izzie: What? What is it that I did that is so horrifying? I fell in love, Alex. Alex: He's married. Izzie: Yeah, so? You're carrying a big ol' torch for Ava or Jane Doe or whatever it is that you call her, and she's married. So what gives you the right to judge what I do? Why do you even care? Alex: You told me you weren't ready yet...after Denny... to be with anyone. And then O'Malley? O'Malley. And then you tell me like I'm one of your chick friends. Come on. (Meredith, Norman and Mark are saying goodbye to Ms. Bitzer) Meredith: Ms. Bitzer ,I just wanted to apologize one more time. Ms. Bitzer: Oh, and I just wanted to say thank you, Dr. Grey. And, you, too, Dr. Shales. Bless you. Bye-bye. Meredith: She's not going to sue? Mark: Nope. Our lawyer talked her into settling. Seattle grace just bought that woman four bedrooms and three and a half baths in Reykjavik. Meredith: I'm so sorry. Mark: Well, don't tell me. Tell the chief. I'm writing you both up. It wasn't Norman's fault. He's my responsibility. I'm the resident. I'm the only one you should write up. Mark: That's very noble of you, Dr. Grey. Stupid...but noble. Meredith: Oh. Norman: For the record, Dr. Grey, I don't think you're stupid at all. I find you... quite smart. (Adele walks up to Richard) Adele: What did you say to Camille? Richard: Adele... Adele: I've already lost one baby. And now I have to lose Camille? Richard: I am not going to use Camille to try and make up for the fact that I never gave you children. Adele: I never asked you to. I asked you to talk to her, to convince her to... Richard: I can't do that... I can't do that, Adele. I can give her all the options in the world, but I cannot make her do what I want her to do. I'm her doctor. Adele: I thought being a doctor was about saving lives. After all these years of choosing your job over your family, the one time I ask you to do your job to save this family... Richard: Adele, I'm sorry. I'm truly, truly sorry, but... Adele: So am I, Richard. (George walks up to Callie who is standing in the rain) George: Callie...you can't...just forgive me. What I did to you...is unforgivable. Callie: That's how it works. That's what "I forgive you" means. George: No, see, I...I think it means you don't forgive me. I...you don't know how to talk to me right now. I mean, look, you don't...you can't even look at me. You're so angry that...I think the only way you can deal with me is to say you forgive me and...what, we pretend it didn't happen? I...it happened. And you don't forgive me. Callie: You're right. I don't. (Meredith walks up to Derek who is about to get in the elevator) Meredith: So I got Alex to cover for me. Derek: Oh. Meredith: So I can leave right after I round on my patients. Derek: Yeah. Meredith: 48 uninterrupted hours... Derek: Yeah, yeah. Um...you know what? Maybe this is not a good weekend. Meredith: What did Lexie say about me? Derek: She didn't say anything. I did all the talking. Look, don't blame her. Meredith: So what, you're friends with my sister now? I mean, you talk to the other Grey about me? Derek: Mm-hmm. You know what I talked about with the other Grey? All the things this Grey won't let me say. Meredith: You can say anything to me. Derek: I want to marry you. I want to have kids with you. I want to build us a house. I want to settle down and grow old with you. I want to die when I'm 110 years old in your arms. I don't want 48 uninterrupted hours. I want a lifetime. (Meredith takes a step back) Derek: Mm-hmm. Do you see what happens? I say things like that, and you fight the urge to run in the opposite direction. It's okay. I understand. I didn't, but now I do. I do...you're just getting started. And I've been doing this for a long time. Deep down...you're still an intern. And you're not ready. Meredith: I'm not ready right now. But things could stay the way they are... And I can get ready. I'll get ready. Derek: Things can stay the way they are. We can still meet in the elevator or the on call room. And maybe you'll be ready. And I'll wait. I'll wait until you're ready. Meredith: Okay, then. Derek: Yeah, but what if...what if while I'm waiting I meet someone who is ready to give me what I want from you? Meredith: What if you do? Derek: I don't know. (Derek enters the elevator, leaving Meredith standing there) (Stanley is in his sons room, Lexie walks up to Cristina outside his room) MVO: Forgive and forget. That's what they say. Lexie: I just wanted to say, um, thank you for...saving my ass today in surgery. Cristina: Well, that's my job, three. Now where are Adam's post-op labs? MVO: It's good advice, but it's not very practical. Lexie: I'll get them, Dr. Yang. MVO: When someone hurts us...we want to hurt them back. (Izzie is on her bed crying. There is a knock at her door) Izzie: Come in. (Alex tosses her a box of tissues) Alex: Keep it down, will you? MVO: When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness, old scores are never settled...old wounds never heal. (Callie is sitting on the edge of the bed and turns off the light) MVO: And the most we can hope for is that one day we'll be lucky enough to forget.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x04 - The Heart of the Matter"}	foreverdreaming

We like to pretend we're hard, cold scientists. We like to pretend we're fearless. (She opens the door to a freezer and sees herself) dad Meredith: Pick me, choose me, love me. (Meredith wakes up to realize she was dreaming) MVO: But the truth is, we become surgeons because somewhere, deep down, we think we can cut away that which haunts us... (Meredith enters the dining room to find Alex and Izzie. Alex is carving a pumpkin and Izzie is baking) Meredith: What are you guys doing up? Izzie and Alex: Couldn't sleep. MVO: Weakness, frailty...death. (Meredith dumps her moms ashes into a Ziploc bag) Izzie: What is that? Meredith: My mother. Alex: Happy freaking' Halloween. (Cristina is at the bulletin, Richard is nearby) Richard: Yang...you're moving out of Burke's place, huh? Cristina: Yes, sir. Richard: My wife has filed for divorce. Cristina: I'm very sorry, sir. Richard: At any rate, I need a place to live. And Burke's place...I...I was there once. I suppose actually it's your place now, right? Cristina: No, it's still Burke's place. Now it's yours. (Meredith is in the locker room with the other interns) Cristina: What are we looking at? Izzie: Meredith put her mom in a baggie and brought her to work. Meredith: I had to get her out of my closet. She was haunting me. Alex: And now she's haunting us all. Meredith: I'm putting her to rest. (Sydney enters) Sydney: Meredith is cleansing. In tribal culture, when one wants to cleanse the past, one cuts off all of one's hair and buries it in the earth. You might try that, too. (Callie enters) Callie: Okay, listen up. Today is a holiday, which means the pit will be overrun. You've got the usual drunken stupidity... Bailey: And then you've got Seattle's annual chain saw pumpkin carving contest. I love this city. Callie: Stay on your toes, stay on top of your interns, okay? Izzie: So we should round before heading to the pit or... Callie: Yeah, you should direct your questions to Dr. Bailey, Stevens. Cristina: Oh, we're directing our questions to Dr. Bailey? Callie: Oh, not you. Just Stevens. Bailey: Why is Stevens directing her questions to Dr. Bailey? Callie: Because she's been sleeping with my husband. All righty, then. Have a good day. (Callie and Izzie leave) Cristina: Okay, this is even more disturbing than your bagful of mommy. (Lexie is in the hall with Erin and her father, Jack) Erin: His medication was due half an hour ago. I mean, the man is living in the hospital while he waits on a heart. Jack: Erin, honey. I'm thinking it's kinda hard for anyone to take you seriously in your mouse costume. Erin: See, I work with 5 year olds, dad. My costume is appropriate. Hers is not. Look, I'm...I'm just saying, if you have time for Halloween costumes, you probably have time to provide my father with basic care. (George walks up) George: Hi, I'm Dr. O'Malley. We'll take care of your father right away. Erin: Thank you. George: You should always make sure they have their meds before you do anything else. Lexie: Okay. Thanks. George: I like your costume. Lexie: Oh, well, Dr. Yang said that we... George: Yang...is screwing with you. Lexie: Oh, I knew it (Bailey is in the clinic when James walks up) James: Are you the doctor? Bailey: Oh, I am. James: Good. That's...that's good. Bailey: Is your leg hurting you? James: It's...it's not the leg. It's the foot. And...and it's not hurting so much as... as it's not mine. Something happened. I...I can't explain it. But this...this foot does not belong to me. It...it's...it...it...it feels like it's a corpse foot. Bailey: Oh, did you lose feeling in the foot? Is it numb? James: No, it's...it's not numb. It's just...it's not mine. Please, I'm...I'm not crazy. I...I work at a bank. I'm not crazy. Please. I just...I...I need a surgeon. I need you to get me a surgeon who will remove it. Bailey: A surgeon who will remove your foot? A surgeon who will amputate your seemingly healthy foot? (Meredith is in the hall and runs into Derek) Meredith: Oh! Derek: What is that? Meredith: It's charts. Derek: Meredith. Meredith: It's my mom. Derek: What? Meredith: I had her in the cubby, and she was freaking people out. So I was just gonna go put her in the car. Do you think that's disrespectful, to leave her in the car? Derek: It's a little... Meredith: It's not that strange. Derek: Oh. Meredith: I'm trying to figure out how to put her to rest. I can't shove her in the back of my closet anymore. I have to deal with her. Derek: Well... Meredith: And this is me trying to evolve. I'm trying here. So...cubby or car? Derek: You're asking me if I think you should put your mom's ashes in your cubby or your car? Okay, and you don't think that's very, very strange? (Ryan walks up) Ryan: Are those really your mom's ashes? Derek: It's strange, right? It's strange. Meredith: Are you lost? Ryan: No, my mom works in the cafeteria. And she said I could come up here and look for Dr. Sloan. Do you know him? Meredith: Um, can you take care of him? Derek: Yeah. Can you...take care of her? (Mark walks up to the nurse's station) Mark: Good morning. Olivia: Don't do that. Don't smile at me. Jolene: Don't smile at her. Don't smile at me, either. Olivia: We're on to you. Jolene: We've compared notes. Mark: Compared notes? Really? Jolene: Mm-hmm. Olivia: Compared notes, compared pickup lines compared techniques. Mark: Techniques? Jolene and Olivia: Identical. Mark: Identical? Olivia: We formed a club. Nurses unite against Mark Sloan. Mark: Are there any, uh, club activities? (Derek walks up with Ryan) Mark: Oh, man. You would not believe what just happened to me. Derek: There's a, uh, kid looking for you. Mark: What? Ryan: Daddy? Mark: What? (Mark looks shocked. After a minute Ryan smiles and Derek gives him some money) Derek: Nicely done. Ryan: Thanks. Mark: I'll be getting you back for that. Derek: Looking forward to it. Ryan: You're not my father. But I am hoping you'll build me some ears. (Alex is in the hall when a nurse walks past) Nurse: Dr. Karev, request for you. Curtain three. (Alex is on the way to curtain three and runs into Norman) Norman: Dr. Karev, I'm feeling a little under the weather. And...and rather than risk spreading germs to the patients, I thought I would head home for the day. Alex: Norman, do you want to be a surgeon or do you want to go to bed? Because it's one or the other. Surgeons stand up through 10...12...15-hour surgeries without food, without bathroom breaks without complaints. Surgeons do not go home because we have a tickle in our throat. (Alex opens the curtain and finds Ava) Norman: Well, it's not a tickle in my throat as much as... Alex: Make yourself busy, Norman. Norman: Right. Ava: All the moms in my town, they all dress up for Halloween. So I was thinking, what would I want to be if...if I had to dress up or what I...and the only thing I could come up with, the only thing that I wanted to be...was Ava. (Alex grabs her and kisses her) (Meredith walks up to Mark and Ryan) Meredith: You found him. Ryan: You two know each other? You know his parents? Meredith: His mom works in the cafeteria. What's all this? Ryan: It's letters from the kids in my class. Mark: Letters to me. He has the internal structure to hear, he just doesn't have a canal or external structure. Ryan: So I thought if I came in with my letters, Dr. Sloan might feel sorry for me and do the surgery for free. Mark: Uh, look, I'd like to help, I would if I could, but pro bono surgery... Ryan: You should probably know that on my way here this morning, three different people thought I was in a costume. My head looks like a permanent Halloween costume. Just thought you should know that. Meredith: You're good. Mark: Pro bono surgery is not just about me giving you my time. A surgery like this requires OR time, an anesthesiologist, a general surgeon to remove the cartilage from your ribs, at least two surgical nurses. Meredith: Couldn't you ask them for help? Mark: I could, but I don't have any social capital. The nurses hate me. They've formed a club that's all about hating me. And the other doctors don't owe me any favors 'cause I've never done any for them. I'm sorry. I wish I could help. I would if I could. Meredith: I have social capital. Or I don't. Nobody knows me, but they knew my mother. So maybe I can make this happen. Mark: Fine, make it happen. You manage that, I'm all yours. Ryan: These people who knew your mother, do they know you brought her to work in a baggie? (Alex and Ava are in the on-call room) Ava: Oh, you...you didn't come for me. You...you chickened out. When I... when I was leaving, when I was...when I asked you to give me a reason to stay, you chickened out, which I...I get. I get that. It was a lot. It was scary, and I...I know I can be kinda intense, but I thought...I thought...oh! I thought after the... the chickening out part, I thought...you would come for me. I came back for you, which basically...makes me a beggar. I'm a beggar for Halloween. And now you're mocking me. Alex: I'm not mocking you. Ava: We need...to talk. Alex: We will. (Bailey and Raj are talking about James) Bailey: Body dysmorphic disorder? Raj: You can prescribe him some anti-anxiety meds to try to lessen the urgency he's feeling. Bailey: The man is requesting an amputation, and the best you can come up with is anti-anxiety meds? (Nurse calls Bailey) Nurse: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Chain saw contest time? Nurse: Yep. Bailey: Mr. Miller. I have to get to the ER. But I'm gonna write you a prescription for some medication I think may help you. James: Medication? I need... I...I need a surgeon. A surgeon can take off the foot. Get me a surgeon! Bailey: I am a surgeon, and I can tell you right now that you won't persuade me or any other surgeon to do what you're asking. Please try this medication. (Meredith is in Richard's office) Meredith: I have an earless boy. Richard: I'm sorry? Meredith: Sloan has agreed to build him ears pro bono if you will donate the OR and all the equipment... Richard: I'm sorry, Grey. My pro bono slate is full. There are protocols to be followed, all sorts ..of red tape. (Ryan enters) Ryan: Trick or treat. Meredith: Get it? He's trick-or-treating...for ears. Richard: Grey... Meredith: You know, my mother, she was big on pro bono surgeries. Richard: OR 2 is free at 6:00 P.M. Meredith: Thank you. (Lexie, George and Izzie are in the ambulance bay) Lexie: If you two need to talk, I could wait over there. Izzie: Why? It's not like we have any secrets anymore. Callie told everyone. Everyone. George: Yeah, it's gonna be a long day. Ray: Erin Shandley, 34, massive head trauma when a brick came through her windshield. GCS of 3 in the field. George: A brick came through her windshield? Ray: Damn kids were screwing around on a bridge, Halloween crap. Izzie: I'm looking at brain matter here. Ray: I checked. She's a donor. Lexie: Oh, my god. Izzie: What? George: Her father's on three. He's waiting for a new heart. (Bailey is in the ER with a fingerless patient) Man: It was awesome. It was the sickest pumpkin head you ever saw. And then the next thing you know, it's, like, blood gushing, and it totally stained my pumpkin head. Bailey: You don't say? Man: Made it even sicker, though. I brought it in...the digit. Bailey: Oh, you have the finger? Man: Yeah, but it's, like, lodged in the chain saw. (He looks down) Man: Wait. It was right here. Who took my saw? Bailey: What...sir, the cut isn't clean enough to consider re... Man: Yo, who took my saw? (They hear the saw starting) Bailey: Oh...oh, no. Cristina: What is that noise? Norman: I have no idea. (They open the curtain to find James attempting to cut his leg off with the chainsaw) James: Aah! Aah! Man: Sick! (Mark and Callie are in James' surgery) Mark: The tibial nerve is sht. There's nothing salvageable here. Callie: Completely mangled. I can't believe he held that saw to his leg long enough...was he high? Bailey: No, I just gave him some morphine for the pain, but the tox screen was clean before that. Callie: Unbelievable. All right, I'll finish the job. Yang, go ahead and prep him for complete amputation. James: Thank you. Thank you so much. (Norman looks sick) Bailey: Hey, you okay? Norman: Oh, severed limbs don't sit well with me. Just a little queasy is all. But I'm fine. I'll help Dr. Yang. Bailey: Okay. (Mark and Callie are talking) Mark: Gotta love Halloween...when all the crazies come out to play. Callie: Mmm, I kind of get it. I mean, I get that you can wake up one day, and your life doesn't feel like your own. Mark: I heard...about your marriage. And if there's anything you need me to do to cheer you up, I'm around, day or night...night in particular. Callie: I was married. I said "till death do us part," okay? In a church. I mean, it was the church of Elvis, but still it was a church. I just...I can't believe this is my life. (Richard and Izzie are in Jack's room telling him about Erin) Jack: I don't understand. How did this happen? How could this happen? Izzie: Injuries like these happen very quickly. She probably didn't feel any pain at all. Richard: Mr. Shandley. According to Erin's driver's license...she was an organ donor. And as next of kin, if you agree to take her off of life support, you could direct the heart to yourself. She is young, she was healthy. She would be a perfect match for you, sir. Jack: Could you just please go away? Richard: Mr. Shandley, if you would just... Jack: Please, please go away. Please. Richard: Dr. O'Malley will bring you to see your daughter if you like. (Derek runs into Sydney in the hall) Sydney: Oh! Derek: Oh, so sorry. Excuse me. Oh, no, no. You okay? Sydney: No apology necessary. Derek: Okay. Sydney: I'm Sydney, by the way. Dr. Sydney Heron. General surgery. Big fan of your work. Yeah. Uh, we were seated together once at an M&M. Anyway, uh, now seems as good a time as any to make it official...our introduction. Derek: Ah, Derek Shepherd. Pleasure. It's, uh, it's very, very nice to meet you. Nice meeting you, too. (Meredith and Ryan have been watching this exchange) Meredith: You think she's pretty? Ryan: Yeah, I like cheerful people. Meredith: I can be cheerful. Ryan: I think the ashes thing makes that kinda unlikely. (Meredith goes to find Bailey) Meredith: Dr. Bailey, we're gonna help, uh, rebuild a little boy's ears today, pro bono. And I thought maybe you could donate some time. Bailey: Uh, thanks to the fine, upstanding citizen who cut off his foot on my watch, I've got a mountain of paperwork. On top of that, I promised to try and get out here in time to see my son in his Halloween costume. Meredith: Is Tuck even old enough to know what Halloween is? Bailey: He's not, but his father is, and that's who I promised. (Ryan enters) Ryan: Trick or treat. Bailey: For ears? He's trick-or-treating for ears? Meredith: Yeah. Could you also persuade some of the surgical nurses to help out? They seem to really like you. Ryan: Trick or treat. Bailey: Uh, stop that. All right, I'm in. (Jack is visiting with Erin) Jack: She's warm. It doesn't make sense. Derek: I'm sorry. She's breathing with the help of machines. Erin... the person that you knew... isn't there anymore. Jack: Uh...would you bring the paperwork? You can have her...have her...her organs. That's what she wanted. George: And her heart? Jack: Give it to someone else. (Meredith and Cristina are in the lunch room) Cristina: We could scatter her off the roof. Meredith: She was afraid of heights. Cristina: They're ashes, Meredith. The ashes aren't acrophobic. Meredith: I need to put my mother to rest. I need to not become her. I need to not die emotionally crippled and alone. And I need to not attend the wedding of Derek Shepherd and Sydney Heron. I need to put my mother to rest. Cristina: Sydney heron? (Izzie and George join them. There is an awkward silence) Izzie: Just ask. Meredith: So you two are together? George: Yeah. Meredith: Like "together" together, in love together? Sexy love, not sibling love? Izzie: Yes. Yeah. We're together. Meredith: And...you two have been...I mean, without any of us knowing...doing this the whole time? Izzie: Just once. George: Iz. Izzie: I said she could ask questions. Just once. And now we're waiting to...be together...out of respect. George: For Callie's feelings. (Cristina scoffs then walks away) Meredith: She's not judging. Izzie: Right. Meredith: I have an earless boy waiting for me...but...I'm happy for you guys. (Alex and Ava are in the on-call room when Alex's pager goes off) Alex: Norman. Ava: Do you have to go? Alex: No. Norman can get by for a few more minutes without me. How are you? I mean, how have you been? Ava: I'm in love with my daughter. She's perfect. She's...I mean, she sucks on her fingers. It's her new thing. And she makes, like, this perfect little cartoon suckling sound. Alex: And your husband? Ava: My husband's in love with my daughter, too. You look tired. Alex: I haven't been sleeping much. Ava: I haven't been sleeping much either. The baby wakes up all the time. Not as much now that I figured out that if wrap her in whatever shirt I'm wearing... Alex: She smells you. Ava: Yeah and she sleeps. Alex...what are we doing? I mean, what are... what are we gonna do? (Alex falls asleep) (Erica and Richard are at the nurse's station) Richard: Dr. Hahn. Thank you for coming at such short notice. Erica: Oh, not a problem. Are we harvesting the heart for UNOS or is the recipient here? Richard: I'm hoping the recipient is here, but he hasn't agreed yet. Erica: I've never had much trouble talking a heart patient into taking a heart. Richard: It's his daughter's heart. Erica: Okay. (Izzie and Cristina walk by) Cristina: Get him to OR two and page Torres. Nurse: Okay. Izzie: Where are you going? (Richard and Erica are still talking) Richard: His daughter was in an auto accident. (Cristina and Izzie are approaching) Cristina: Hey, uh, what's Hahn doing here? Richard: She's been declared brain dad... Izzie: Heart transplant. Don't even think about it. It's my patient. Cristina: Dr. Hahn, I understand you're doing a heart transplant today, and I thought I'd volunteer to scrub in. Izzie: Isobel Stevens. She's my patient, the donor. So if you need any information, I have it, all of it. She's...she's my patient. Erica: You've got some eager junior residents around here. Richard: Mm, lucky me. Take your pick. Erica: Well, Yang, I appreciate the offer, but I date men. So I don't think you'll be able to impress me the way you've impressed your mentors in the past. Cristina: I...what? Erica: You sleep with them, right? Preston Burke, Colin Marlowe... that's your thing. Cristina: It's my...it's... I'm...I'm sorry. What does that have to do with anything? Erica: My theory is if you had the chops in the OR you wouldn't need to try to impress in the bedroom. Stevens, is it? Izzie: It is. Erica: Let's go, Stevens. (Cristina and Norman are in the hall) Cristina: You know, I bust my ass here, and Burke skips town with my cardio reputation. So now instead of a heart transplant, oh, I get to participate in the amputation of a crazy man's foot. James: I'm not... crazy. Cristina: Cutting off your foot is crazy. James: Walking through your life like you have no power, like you have no say... no say in your own destiny...like you have no control over your own body, walking through life like that is what's crazy. Norman: I still think it's cutting off your foot with a chain saw that's crazy. (Erica is in Jack's room) Erica: Mr. Shandley, I'm Dr. Hahn. The transplant team is in place if you're ready to say good-bye. Jack: You must not have children. Erica: I'm sorry? Jack: If you had children, you'd never say that. You'd never say, "if you're ready to say good-bye. Erica: Mr. Shandley, I'm very sorry, but I want to suggest one last time... Jack: No, I am not taking her heart. I can't have my daughter's heart beating in my chest. It would haunt me every day of my life. No! Erica: All right. I'm very sorry for your loss. Page me when he's ready. (Erica leaves) George: Mr. Shandley... I don't have kids, so I don't know what it's like to lose a child, but I do know what it's like to lose a parent. Your daughter loved you. I saw her this morning. She was fighting for you. She was fighting for your life. You're her dad. You're her dad. She didn't want to leave you. I know that. I also know that she would want you to have her heart. I would've given my dad my heart if I could. If I could've saved him...I would've given him my heart. Jack: All right. (Izzie and Cristina are in the stairwell) Izzie: It's not my fault Hahn chose me. Cristina: Whatever. Izzie: I can't believe that you are judging me. That after what Hahn said to you, that you are judging me. Cristina: It's not the same thing. Izzie: It is the same thing. It's exactly the same thing. I'm sorry that I hurt Callie. I didn't mean to hurt her. Cristina: You slept with her husband. I slept with my boyfriend. It's not the same thing. Izzie: Meredith slept with another woman's husband. Meredith slept with another woman's husband. The two of you are like this closed circle. You can commit whatever crime you want, and in your little circle, it's all fine. I...I know that you didn't sleep with Burke to get ahead. And if Hahn had asked me, I would've defended you. I'm not even asking you to defend me. I'm asking you to just cut me an inch of slack. And believe me when I say that I am sorry I hurt Callie. Cristina: We are not a closed circle. Izzie: You are. (Derek is walking through the hall, he gets checked out by a nurse and then runs into Sydney in the hall) Sydney: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Yes. Sydney: Here's a question... were there actual shepherds in your lineage? Derek: I'm sorry. What? Sydney: You know, shepherds. The ones who watch over sheep. I mean the genealogy My name for example, not actually after the bird (Derek looks up and sees Mark smiling nearby) Derek: You know, I...I'm sorry. Would you excuse me? Sydney: Of course. Derek: Okay, thank you. (To Mark) Yeah, you did this. Mark: Payback's a bitch. Derek: Oh, man. What the hell did you tell her? Mark: I put the word out that you were lookin'. Derek: That I'm looking? Mark: Lookin'. It sounds way dirtier without the G." Derek: And you wonder why they formed a club? Mark: You heard about that? (Meredith and Ryan are in the hall) Meredith: Okay, so we have one plastic surgeon, a general surgeon, an anesthesiologist, one, two, three scrub nurses and an OR. Let's call your mom, kid. You're gonna get some ears. (James' surgery) Callie: He cut off his foot. He cut off his perfectly good foot. Norman: Well, people do some very strange things. Callie: Oh, well. I had the world's shortest marriage. Cristina: I was left in a church while I was literally wearing a wedding dress. Callie: George cheated on me right in front of me, and I missed it. Cristina: Burke sent his mother to say good-bye to me. Callie: I'm gonna be a divorcé. Cristina: Now Erica Hahn thinks I'm a fraud. Norman: I'm, uh, I'm not feeling very... (Norman faints) Cristina: Norman! Callie: Norman? (Alex's pager goes off.) Alex: Oh, crap. Ava: What? Alex: My intern, something happened. I don't know what. Ava: We need to talk. Alex: Well, we will. I'll come back. Okay? Ava: Okay. Don't chicken out. (Mark and Meredith are in the scrub room) Mark: You know, I'm impressed. I didn't think you'd pull this off. Meredith: I'm actually pretty surprised myself, considering it was my first time trick-or-treating. Mark: Your first time? Meredith: My mom never made it home in time to take me, never got it together to make me a costume. Plus she said it was rude to knock on people's doors and beg for food. (Mark stops and stares at Meredith) Meredith: What? Mark: Just...the apple fell pretty far from the tree, huh? (Alex runs into the OR) Derek: Dr. Karev, you want to slow down? Alex: I just heard. Did he have a stroke? Derek: He did. 3 inches to the left, he'd never talk again. Alex: Yeah, but it's gonna be okay, right? Derek: No way to know till we get the clot out and he wakes up. Alex: But he...but he's gonna be okay... Derek: Karev, stop talking. (Jack's transplant surgery) Lexie: Is your marriage really over? George: Yeah. Lexie: I'm sorry. George: Thanks. Lexie: Did Meredith really bring her mom's ashes to work? (Ava is pacing the on-call room waiting for Alex to come back) (Alex is in Norman's surgery) (Meredith and Mark are in Ryan's surgery) Meredith: Look at that. Mark: Not a bad day's work. (Jack's transplant) Erica: Paddles. Let's see what we've got. There it is. George: There it is. (Alex is in Norman's surgery) Alex: Norman, Norman, come on, come on, come on. Norman: What happened? (Lexie and Meredith are in the hallway) Lexie: I just saw a heart transplant. Meredith: I just helped build a little boy some ears. Lexie: That's cool. I dug up my mom's cat. Meredith: What? Lexie: My mom didn't leave any instructions 'cause it was so...unexpected. So...we had to figure out on our own what she would have wanted. And my mom loved that cat. So...I dug her up... the cat...um, from her little grave in our backyard. And I snuck into the cemetery in the middle of the night and reburied her right beside my mom. And...it was creepy and morbid, carrying around a dad, decaying cat in the cemetery in the middle of the night, but...it made my mom really happy. At least...I like to think it did. Meredith: Thanks. Lexie: You're welcome. (Bailey is in the ambulance bay on the phone) Bailey: Look, Tucker, I said I'm sorry. No. I didn't...no, I...Tucker...perfect. (George walks out) George: Hi. We just put a man's daughter's heart in his chest. Bailey: His daughter's heart? Well, that just makes you want to throw up, now doesn't it? You all right? George: You're Dr. Bailey. You hear everything. And if you haven't heard everything, I'm sure you've heard. Bailey: About your marriage? Yeah, I probably would've. George: I'm sorry...if I...disappointed you. Bailey: I'm not your mother, O'Malley. George: I have to apologize to her now, too. Bailey: O'Malley...look, you're not a bad guy. And I don't mean to let you off the hook entirely, because what you did was unkind and hurtful and wrong. But you're not a bad guy. I'm...I'm just saying, it...it takes two. To reach the point you reached in your marriage, it takes two. I mean...I mean, I'm here late at night, Halloween, helping an earless boy get ears, and my husband wants to act like that isn't an important thing. He wants to act like...it isn't a good thing that I did today. Now that isn't just on me. That's him wanting things to be the way he wants. That's him wanting things to be purely black-and-white. I mean, I missed my son's first Halloween, and my heart is aching inside of my chest, but, you know, that doesn't mean anything. It...it doesn't count because in a black-and-white world, I simply didn't make it home, and that makes me the bad guy. You know, always. I'm always the bad guy. You hear what I'm saying? George: Sorry you missed your son's first Halloween. Bailey: Look, what I'm saying to you is...okay, I was there. All right? I was there the day your father died. I was there when you came back from Vegas, married after a week and...all I'm saying is...it's not black-and-white...and you're not a bad guy. (Cristina walks up to Erica Hahn) Cristina: I did not sleep my way to the top. I'm attracted to a talent that resembles my own, not that it's any of your business. Your comments were unprofessional and inappropriate. You know what? You're inappropriate and unprofessional. Erica: This is gonna be so much fun. (Richard walks up) Richard: Dr. Yang, did you hear? Dr. Hahn has agreed to become our new head of cardio-thoracic surgery. Erica: Lookin' forward to it, Dr. Yang. (Erica leaves) Cristina: You can't have my apartment. (Alex is in Norman's room) Alex: I'm...sorry I didn't listen when you said you weren't feeling well. I'm sorry I didn't answer your page. Norman: Do you know why I chose surgery? Alex: No. Norman: I'm a little south of 60 and blood makes me squeamish. See, I wanted to go into psych because I like to talk. Alex: I've noticed that. Norman: But I had this voice in my head telling me to choose surgery. It was as if... my Mary Beth was whispering in my ear. And so I listened. And do you know what I think now? Alex: No. Norman: I think I was about to have a massive stroke...and my Mary Beth wanted me to be surrounded by... world-class surgeons when it happened. Alex: So what are you gonna do now? Norman: Uh, well, I'm gonna go into psych. Because you people, you surgeons, my god...you're all just a bunch of little children running around with your scalpels and your severed feet and your inappropriate sex in inappropriate places. You all need a good shrink. (Meredith is in Ryan's room) Ryan: Dr. Grey? Meredith: Hi. Ryan: I had a goldfish, and when he died, we flushed him down the toilet, back to the sea. Meredith: Okay. Ryan: Back to the sea is better than your cubby. (Derek walks past Richard) Derek: You okay? Richard: I don't know if I can handle one more night in that hotel. What's the matter with you? Derek: I have to start dating. MVO: It isn't just surgeons. (Alex enters the on-call room. Ava is gone but her sweater is there) MVO: The truth is, I don't know anyone who isn't haunted by something...or someone. And whether we try to slice the pain away with a scalpel or shove it in the back of a closet, our efforts usually fail. (George and Izzie are on a bench outside) Izzie: We made it through this day. George: Yeah, we did. We made it through this day. MVO: So the only way we can clear out the cobwebs is to turn a new page... (Callie and Cristina are in her apartment) Cristina: Uh, so it's the kitchen, uh, bedroom, bathroom. There's the sofa. You can sleep here. Callie: Great. So, uh...do you mind if I clean up a little? Cristina: Yes. I mind a lot. MVO: Or put an old story to rest... (Meredith is in the scrub room washing her moms ashes down the drain) Richard: Grey. Meredith: Chief. Richard: What are you doing, Grey? This is a sterile environment. Meredith: It's my mother. And I think this is where she'd want to be. (Richard grabs some of the ashes and helps her) Richard: Should we say a prayer? Meredith: She didn't believe in anything. MVO: Finally, finally to rest. Richard: Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x05 - Haunt You Every Day"}	foreverdreaming
2007 GREY'S ANATOMY 4x06: Kung Fu Fighting Original Airdate: 11/1/2007 Written by: Stacey McKee Directed by: Tom Verica Provided by TVTDB.com (Seattle Scenes) MVO: There's this thing about being a surgeon... (Callie wakes up on the couch) MVO: maybe it's pride or maybe it's just about being tough...but a true surgeon never admits they need help unless absolutely necessary. (Cristina and Meredith are in her bed) Cristina: What are your other symptoms? Meredith: Okay, there's the father thing...the mother thing, the sister thing...mmm, the dying and coming back to life thing. Cristina: You have too many things. Meredith: I can't sleep. I can't sleep without the dreaming. Cristina: And the panic attcks. Meredith: One. One panic attck. Cristina: Okay, still. Meredith: What's wrong with me? Cristina: As far as I can tell, severe abandonment issues. Meredith: That's crap. Psych is crap. Issues? Cristina: I mean, it's...it's in the book. The book said it, not me. Have you considered maybe you and Derek should...stop having breakup sex? Ok. Meredith: The more available he gets...the more I pull away. Cristina: What do you mean? Meredith: Nothing. It's a Derek thing. MVO: Surgeons don't need to ask for help (Derek's trailer) MVO: 'cause they're tougher than that. Surgeons are cowboys rough around the edges, hard-core. (Richard walks out and hands a cup of coffee to Derek) MVO: Least, that's what they want you to think. Derek: Ah, good morning. Richard: Oh, perfect timing. Trout for breakfast. Derek: Mm-hmm Richard: Again. Derek: Yeah, don't start. I let you live on my land, so don't...don't start. Richard: I'm older than you. I've just seen life from both sides now. Derek: You gonna start singing? Richard: I'm just saying that a man who is up fishing at 3:00 every morning is a man in pain over a woman. Derek: Oh, good. A country-western song. Richard: I'm pointing out it's a thing we have in common, Derek. You know, what we need is something to take our mind off of everything. What we need...is a gentlemen's evening. Derek: A what? Richard: A good, old-fashioned gentlemen's evening...tonight. (Izzie is in an on-call room with George) Izzie: This is absurd. You shouldn't be sleeping in the on call room. George: It's not always an on call room. Sometimes it's a gurney in the tunnels and the... Izzie: It's absurd...when I have a perfectly good bed. And I know that we said we would wait and be respectful, and we have been very respectful. But now I want sex. George: Right now? Izzie: No. Tonight. Tonight we will have...hot, perfect sex. You in? George: Yeah, I'm obviously in. Izzie: I gotta go. I got patients to check on, Erica Hahn to impress. I'm gonna go kick some cardio ass. Oh, god. I gotta shave my legs. George: It's okay if you don't, you know, have a chance to shave your legs. Izzie: No, it's not. It is not okay, George. I have to shave my legs. I will be shaving my legs. Hot, perfect sex requires shaved legs. George: Okay. (Richard, and Derek walk up to the nurse's station where Erica is standing) Richard: Erica Hahn...first day. Erica: Oh, first day indeed, and a mountain of paperwork to prove it. Richard: Derek Shepherd, you know Erica Hahn. Derek: You're the new Burke. (Mark walks up) Richard: And this is Dr. Mark Sloan, head of plastics. Erica Hahn. Mark: Ah, the new Burke. Derek: Welcome. Excuse us. (Mark and Derek step aside) Erica: Interesting guys, and by "interesting" I mean ridiculously attractive. Do you hire on looks alone, or is actual skill a factor? Richard: Good to have you here, Erica. Erica: Good to be here, Richard. (Derek and Mark) Mark: What exactly is a gentlemen's evening? Derek: I don't know. It's an evening with gentlemen. Mark: And strippers? Derek: No, I don't...I don't think the chief meant strippers. Mark: Sure sounds like strippers. Dr. Bailey? What's the first thing that comes to mind when I say the words "gentlemen's evening"? Bailey: Tassels. Shiny, sequined tassels and $1 bills. Mark: See? Strippers. Derek: There will be no strippers. I'm almost positive. Mark: So you don't know what this thing is either? Derek: No, but you're in? Mark: Why not? I like to be surprised. (Cristina and Meredith are at a nurse's station) Cristina: Okay. Oh, heads-up. Mr.Incredible,12:00. (Derek walks by) Derek: Hi. Meredith: Hi. Cristina: What the hell was that about? Meredith: That was about a date we have later in the on call room. It's nothing. Cristina: Well, you sure seem to be losing sleep over a whole lot of "nothing. (Meredith and Cristina enter the ambulance bay) Cristina: This is it...Hahn is in the hospital, freakin' Izzie is on her service again. I'm gonna ride this trauma train straight back into cardio. Callie: Okay, what do we got? Meredith: Uh, two ambulances, multiple traumas. Alex: Any chance you need a resident's help, Dr. Torres? Callie: As long as you want to smash bones into dust while people cry. Alex: Sweet. What do you got? Cristina: Chest pain, tamponade, ruptured aorta? Ambulance Driver: Uh, more like a clown car. Jackie Escott, 25 years old, dislocated shoulder, lac to her thigh, vital signs are sab. And Helena Boyd, 26 years old...also sab with obvious nasal fracture, facial lacs and a chunk of missing scalp. Helena: She ripped out my hair. Jackie: She ripped out my shoulder! Helena: You ripped out your own shoulder when you were trying to push me off of the platform! Fiancé 1: Who let go of the dress? Did anybody let go of the dress? Fiancé 2: Hang in there, honey. Don't let her psych you out, all right? Callie: Okay, what the hell's all this? Judge: It's a store contest. I'm the judge. Last one to let go of the dress... Helena: Wins the wedding of my dreams. Jackie: Of my dreams. Callie: All right, enough. You two are injured, okay? You need to get your priorities straight and let go of the...let go...let go of the dress so we can treat you. All right, let go now. Now. Helena: Yeah, that's not gonna happen. Callie: All right. Fine. Let's move. Cristina: Oh, please let this be something good, something cardio good. Please. Ambulance Driver 2: 33-year-old male discovered unconscious but sab having survived a 12,000-foot free fall. Cristina: A what? Ambulance Driver: His parachute didn't open. Cristina: Wait, he fell 12,000 feet without a parachute? Thank you. (In the ER) Bailey: What's his name? Rick: Rick. I'm Rick Jacobs. Bailey: He's talking? Cristina: You'd think after 12,000 feet, he'd have at least a punctured lung. (A woman runs up) Sally: Where is he? Where are you? Oh, my god. There you are. How is he? How is he? Is he okay? Is he dying? Rick: No, I'm not dying, Sally. Bailey: Okay, ma'am, you need to calm down. Meredith: Is this your wife? Rick: My skydiving instructor. Bailey: Well, ma'am... Sally: I watched the whole thing. I...I couldn't do anything. I was just...I was just in the clouds floating, watching while he...while he...while he...you...you fell to your death. His chute didn't open. Bailey: Ma'am, okay, we need to do our jobs, and you're making that difficult by hovering over the patient. Please have a seat and breathe. (Richard enters) Richard: I heard we have a skydiver who fell 12,000 feet. Rick: That'd be me. Richard: Uh, hello. Rick: Hi. Richard: He's talking? Bailey: Clearly he's in shock, can't feel the extent of his injuries. Derek: Let's get him down for a C.T. Meredith: Cristina, where are you going? Cristina: Multiple injuries means multiple surgeries. I'm going to get me some cardio. (ER) Callie: Okay, do you see that you're bleeding all over the dress? Jackie: It's not about the dress. Alex: I can't, uh, I can't...there's too much blood down here. Which one of your legs is bleeding? Helena: I don't know. I can't really feel anything anymore. Mark: I hear you have a broken nose down here. What's with the dress? Jackie: It's not about the dress. Callie: Can't they...can't they just split the prize? Judge: I offered. I offered that 14 hours ago. Jackie: It is a $100,000 wedding package, and I am not splitting it with anyone. George: Oh, you're bleeding on your dress. Everyone: It's not about the dress! Callie: Uh, uh, I'm gonna have to sab that shoulder somehow. Alex: I'll go grab a sling. (Mark and Callie step aside) Mark: Well, this is cozy. Callie: This is hell. I assigned O'Malley to you to keep him away from me, and now our patients are connected to each other. Mark: You're not looking at this like the opportunity it is. Callie: Meaning? Mark: Meaning he's an intern. It's, like, half my job, torturing interns. Callie: Thanks. That's...that's almost sweet. But torturing George is not gonna make any of this any better. trture him how, exactly? (Izzie is with Mr. Arnold) Mr. Arnold: My hands always get so sweaty in hospitals. It's the weirdest thing. Izzie: It's pretty common, actually. If it makes you feel any better, Dr. Hahn has done this procedure hundreds of times. Mr. Arnold: And she's really gonna thread a catheter up my leg, all the way to my heart? Izzie: Trust me, you are in excellent hands. Mr. Arnold: But, um, I...I'll be out, right? Izzie: Oh, yeah, you'll be asleep. You won't remember a thing. Mr. Arnold: Ivory-billed woodpecker. Izzie: I'm sorry? Mr. Arnold: Ivory-billed woodpecker...that's what's getting me through this. I'm a, uh, lifelong birdwatcher. And when I get through this, I am finally going to scout the ivory-billed woodpecker. It is so rare. You know, we...we thought it was extinct. But it's not. It lives in Arkansas...in this one little patch of swamp. Do you have any idea how incredible it is to see a bird like that in person? Izzie: I'm sorry. (Cristina enters) Izzie: Uh, I'll be just one second. Why are you hovering? Cristina: Guess what just came into the pit. No, no, don't guess. I'll tell you. Skydiver. Skydiver whose chute didn't open, who fell 12,000 feet and landed in some shrubbery. Izzie: Poor guy. He probably broke every bone in his body. Cristina: No, the point is not poor guy. The point is amazing surgery. And it could be yours for the low, low price of a humdrum, everyday cardio cath. Izzie: Yeah, forget it. I'm not giving up Hahn's service. Cristina: Hey, hey, Izzie, you know what? Cardio is my thing. Izzie: No. I like this patient, I like Hahn, and I like cardio. Cristina: No, you are...you are flirting with cardio. I am married to cardio. You will marry general surgery or, you know, okay, perhaps neuro. But you, you are nowhere near hard-core enough to commit to cardio. Izzie: So you are telling me to stop flirting with your husband. I get it. That's cute. But if you're gonna ask me for a favor, insulting my personal life is probably not a great tactic. Cristina: No, no, no, wait. I am not talking about your sex life. I could not care less about your sex life. It's a skydiver, Izzie. Skydiver. Izzie: Oh, yeah. Sounds really cool. Enjoy it. (CT scan room for Rick) Richard: If his intestines look like I think they will, that's gonna take first priority. Derek: He could have delayed paralysis. Bailey: This is not a contest, gentlemen. But since a perfed bowel could kll the guy whether or not his spine's in working order, my money's on the chief going first. (Cristina enters) Cristina: Hey, what'd I miss? Any cardiothoracic concerns? I'd be happy to page Dr. Hahn. Richard: Scan's coming up. Bailey: Here it is. Wait for it. Wait. Cristina: Wait. Meredith: Oh, that can't be right, can it? Bailey: I'm not seeing any free fluid, any intraperitoneal gases. Derek: Does anybody see anything? Richard: There! Right there. A hematoma... Cristina: In the right lower quadrant. Meredith: It's the appendix. Bailey: We're saying this guy fell 12,000 feet, and basically all he needs is an appendectomy? (Alex enters the closet where Lexie is sitting on the floor) Alex: You're charting... in a closet. Lexie: I get a lot of work done in here. It's quiet and nice. Alex: And a closet. Lexie: Look...when I'm out there roaming the floors, okay, I am the other Grey that Dr. Yang likes to humiliate and kick around. And...and in here, I'm...I'm not. You know, in...in here, I'm...it's just...it's...it's my place, okay? Alex: It's...it's a closet. You know, every intern class has its runt of the litter. You keep this up, this year it's gonna be you. Get up. Lexie: Oh, sorry. You probably need to get in here. Alex: No, grab...grab a sling from the box and come with me. Lexie: With you? Alex: Well, if you'd rather sit like a loser in a closet doing charts, you can. Or you can come help me on ortho today. Your choice. (ER) Jackie: No way. No frickin' way. Calie: It's the only solution if neither of you will let go of the dress. Mark: It's very simple. Dr. Torres needs to treat Jackie's shoulder and leg, so, Jackie, you need a proxy. Helena: What? Fiancé 2: Think about it, babe. This gives you an advantage. You get to rest your hand and come back refreshed. Give me the dress. I'll be the proxy. Fiancé 1: No way. This isn't fair. You think this is fair? Mark: Dr. O'Malley's the proxy. George: What? Mark: He'll hold on to the dress. George: Hold the dress? You just want me to...stand here and hold a dress? Mark: No one ever said internship was easy. Fiancé 1: Dude, you're job kinda sucks, huh? Jackie: Hello? Watch the shoulder. (Alex and Lexie enter) Alex: Oh, check it out. Bambi's a bridesmaid. Callie: You're right. This did cheer me up. (Trauma room) Bailey: You've got no lung injuries, no spinal injuries, no broken bones. You're just a lucky man. Rick: Holy crap. Bailey: The only thing we found was a little bleeding in your lower abdomen. Meredith: Which means we have to remove your appendix. Rick: How's that even possible? Bailey: Uh, the body's an amazing thing. You know, sometimes these things, they just happen. Sally: If you had died... God. Rick: I didn't though. I lived. It's just the most amazing feeling. I feel like I could do anything right now. I mean, anything in the world because I faced death and I...I survived. Meredith: It changes a person. Rick: It does. It so does. Sally...Sal, I have to...I want to, um... Sally: Don't worry. The minute...the minute we get out of here, I am so destroying that video. You will never have to...to relive that horrible...in fact, where's your helmet? I'm gonna destroy that video right now. Rick: Sally. Sal...wait. Cristina: Did she say "video"? (Mr. Arnold's surgery) Erica: The trick is to envision the artery like a spaghetti noodle...pliable, but not too fragile. Richard: Good morning. Erica: Oh, this is an unexpected surprise, chief. You need something? Richard: Oh, first day. Just wanted to see how you were settling in. Erica: You see that? Izzie: It's a blockage, left main coronary artery. It's totally closed off. Erica: There's no way I'm getting a stent in there. We're gonna have to open him up. Izzie: B.P.'S dropping to 58 over 20. Richard: His heart's racing. Erica: And his temp's rising. Muscles are rigid. All right, let's bring him off anesthesia and start him on 100% o-2. He's got malignant hypothermia. Izzie: So he's allergic to the anesthesia? Richard: He'll never be able to endure the cabg. Izzie: So what are our options? (MR. Arnold's room after he wakes up) Mr. Arnold: That's just, uh...I mean, it sounds like you're telling me...you're not actually telling me I'm... I'm gonna die? Erica: The blockage we found in your heart needs surgery, extensive surgery. Angioplasty won't work. And since you're allergic to the anesthesia... Mr. Arnold: So I'll just, uh...I'll be like this. I'll be sick...and exhausted...and like this...until one day when I'll...just, uh...die. It would've been wonderful...to see that bird. It would've been wonderful. (ER) Mark: You're crowding me, O'Malley. Fiancé 2: Hey, hey, I think he just let go. You just let go of the dress, didn't you? George: No. Judge: I wish to god he had. Fiancé 1: I swear, if you let go and lose this contest after my Jackie almost died to win it Fiancé 2: Dude, a busted shoulder does not mean she almost died. Okay? Fiancé 1: Whatever. I'm watching you. Helena: I know you all think this is stupid. If I were you, I would think this is really stupid. Mark: I've never been married myself, so I'm not one to judge, but George here knows all about what it takes. Don't you, O'Malley? Helena: You're married? For how long? George: Not very long. Helena: Newlyweds, congratulations. George: Thanks. (Trauma room) Callie: Now, Jackie, Dr. Karev and I are gonna do this on the count of three, okay? Jackie: I should totally win over that Helena girl. I am way more injured than she is. I should just win by default. Callie: One...two...three. Jackie: Is it in? Alex: It popped back out. Callie: She's gonna need surgery. Jackie: Hey, no. I gotta get back to my dress. Just wrap some bandages around it or something. Callie: You would rather hold on to a dress with a dislocated shoulder than let me repair it in surgery for you right now? Jackie: I can have surgery anytime. I can only win this wedding once. (ER) Cristina: So what, he just stands there and holds a dress? Meredith: I know. I thought it was gonna be more exciting, too. Cristina: A monkey could hold a dress. George: Actually, this is a lot harder than it looks. Helena: Don't let them get to you. Tune them out, all of them. It's the only way to get through it. Fiancé 2: Sweetie, he's your competition. Don't help him. Judge: You ever give morphine to people who aren't patients? Cristina: This kinda blows. Alex: It's more fun when you heckle. Meredith: Don't heckle, George. Cristina: Yeah, whatever. I got something way better than this. Alex: Something that tops O'Malley playing bride? Cristina: Skydiver video. (Cristina, Alex, Izzie and Meredith are in an office) Izzie: What are we doing? Alex: Video from the helmet of a skydiver without a chute. Izzie: You guys are sick. Cristina: Oh, it's not a snuff film. The guy survives. Alex: Holy... Cristina: Oh, is he...oh, no, he's going for it. He's going for the chute. Oh, and it doesn't open. Meredith: Now he's flailing. Alex: He's going for his second chute. Izzie: Oh, jeez. Cristina: Oh, also doesn't open. Izzie: You'd think there'd be more screaming. Meredith: Oh, ok how close the ground is getting. Alex: What's he doing now? Cristina: Peeing his pants. Meredith: Is he saying something? Turn it up. Rick: God, I wish would've told you. I am so in love with you. I love you. I love you. I love you, Sally. I... All: Ohh! Izzie: Who's sally? Meredith: His skydiving instructor. Izzie: Sad. Cristina: Hey, what are you even doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in surgery? Izzie: The guy is allergic to anesthesia. The surgery was canceled. (Meredith and Cristina are in an exam room) Meredith: I drowned. I was sinking...I died. And you know what I realized? I realized how stupid all of my issues are. Cristina: I'm waiting for how this applies to me. Meredith: It doesn't. Cristina: Of course not. Meredith: Well, that man fell, and all he wanted was one last chance to tell sall how he felt about her. And I got one last chance. I got my chance. And what have I done with it? Cristina: You know, being aware of your crap and actually overcoming your crap are two very different things. Meredith: I know. Cristina: Okay, found it. (Cristina is in the hall with Erica) Cristina: Dr. Hahn, I know how you can do the surgery on the patient who is allergic to anesthesia. Erica: Well, no anesthesia means no ventilator. No ventilator means no cabg. Not a whole lot of wiggle room there. Cristina: You can operate on him while he's awake. Erica: Yang... Cristina: You can use a high thoracic epidural to numb him from the chest down. Let him breathe on his own the entire time. I mean, they pulled it off in India last month, and then again in... (Izzie walks up) Izzie: Dr. Hahn, you wanted to sign the discharge papers for Mr. Arnold? Erica: Not quite yet. (Mr. Arnold's room) Mr. Arnold: Wide awake? You want me to let you slice open my chest while I'm wide awake? Erica: It is your best option. Mr. Arnold: Uh, how...how long would I have to be lying there, uh, on the table with my chest open, uh, like that? Erica: The surgery can take up to five or six hours. Maybe more. Mr. Arnold: Uh, six hours...awake...with you operating on my heart. I... Izzie: The ivory-billed woodpecker. Erica: What? Cristina: What? Izzie: The ivory-billed woodpecker. Mr. Arnold, you want to live to see it, don't you? This is your only chance. Mr. Arnold: Ivory-billed woodpecker. Erica: Excellent. Stevens, we will scrub in as soon as an OR is free. Izzie: Uh, but the surgery was Cristina's idea. Erica: Either you want in or you don't. Which is it? Izzie: I do. Cristina: Uh, but... Erica: I'm sure there'll be standing room in the gallery, Yang. Stevens, book the OR. Derek: Uh, chief. Richard: Awake open-heart surgery? Derek: I want to talk to you about tonight. Richard: Have you heard about this awake open-heart surgery? Derek: I've invited Sloan and, um, well, I'm wondering what I should tell him to expect. Richard: Mm, tell him to expect a good time. Derek: Okay, so what is that, poker, cigars, whiskey? I mean, what kind of things? Richard: A good time, Shep. (Jackie's room) Jackie: You know? You have no idea the kind of stamina it takes to stand in a display window for two days. It's the hardest thing I've ever done, like, ever. Callie: You're risking permanent damage to your shoulder over a contest. Lexie: What does your dress look like? Jackie: Strapless, sweetheart neckline, crystal beading...so pretty. Lexie: But you're gonna wear your hair down, though, right? You know, to cover the hunchback? Jackie: The what? Lexie: Oh, it's just, since you're ignoring Dr .Torres' advice about getting the surgery, you know, your shoulder is probably gonna be pretty swollen and purple...you know, kind of like a hunchback? But your hair should totally cover it. I mean, probably, with the right veil. Jackie: You didn't tell me that. How soon can we have the surgery? (Mark and Derek are in the hall with Erica) Mark: Dr. Hahn, I heard a crazy rumor about you. Erica: That I'm performing open-heart surgery on a man who's wide awake? Mark: That's the rumor. Erica: That's the truth. Derek: Well, I perform awake brain surgery all the time. Erica and Mark: Not the same thing. Mark: You ever heard of a gentlemen's evening? Erica: I'm sorry? Derek: The chief is hosting a gentlemen's evening. Mark: We're pretty sure it doesn't involve prn, but, you know, we want to be sure. Erica: Right. Are you two a couple? Mark and Derek: No. Erica: Just checking. Derek: Why would she ask that? Mark: I don't know. I'm...I'm worried about this gentlemen's thing. (ER) Izzie: George...you got a second? George: Seriously? One sec. Izzie: Hi. We're gonna have to push back our perfect evening tonight. Not by much...a few hours, I think. George: Sure. Izzie: Okay. I'm about to scrub in on an awake open-heart surgery. George: A what? Izzie: Awake. The patient's gonna be wide awake while we operate on his heart. Helena: That is intense. Izzie: It is. It is intense. It's...you know, Cristina would be all over this. She would be studying and quizzing herself, and all I can think about is...is the poor guy. You know, he's really nervous already, and...I'm not hard-core. I'm not hard-core enough for this. George: Yes, you are. What, you're just...you're just not like Cristina. You're hard-core. You're hard-core like Izzie. Did that just sound dirty? 'Cause that's not how I meant it. Fiancé 2: Mean it, man. George: Shut...go kick ass in the surgery, and then we'll have our night, and it will be perfect. Izzie: Oh, I have not shaved my legs yet. George: Go be hard-core Izzie. Go. Izzie: Okay, got it. Going Thank you. George: Bye. Fiancé 2: She's hot, man. Helena: Is she your wife? George: I don't know you well enough to have this conversation. (Erica enters Richard's office) Erica: Chief, you paged? Richard: Close the door. You had the nerve to tell a patient you would perform awake open-heart surgery without running it past me? Erica: Did Burke run every surgery past you? Richard: Erica, I know you're new here... Erica: No. Richard: But we run... Erica: I just want to know what the rules are. Every surgery Burke booked, he ran it up the flagpole first? And what about pretty and prettier? They run all their surgeries past you? Richard: Wait, you're talking about Shepherd and Sloan? Erica: I am talking about your male attendings. You know, the ones you invited to your gentlemen's evening? Guess you don't know a guy till you work for him. I mean, who knew you were running some kind of old boys' club? Richard: No, that is not it. What we were... Erica: You realize that an evening to which the male attendings are invited and the women are not...you realize that that's a lot like when law firms used to have country club weekends and failed to invite the black socialites? Erica: Good talk. I gotta prep for my surgery. (Meredith and Derek are in bed) Meredith: Remember when I was dad? Before I went in that water, everything was so...complicated and hard. And then you pulled me out of the water. And I came back to life. For a moment, everything was so clear...as if the water had washed everything clean. Do you remember that? Derek: I do. Meredith: Me, too. (Izzie lays down on a OR bed and sees what it would be like to be operated on while awake) (ER) George: I don't know how you guys did this for two days. Helena: Believe me, I would be at city hall tomorrow if that were an option. George: It is an option. You could just...let go. Helena: You let go. George: You let go, and it's no big deal. It's a wedding. I let go, and I have to face the wrath of Dr. Sloan. Helena: My mom manages a grocery store, and ever since I got engaged, she's been putting herself into serious debt over hand-engraved place cards and chocolate fountains. It's her dream. My wedding is her dream. This is so important to her. This is what she's been living for since I can remember, since...my dad left. My perfect night. So...I can do this. I can do this for her...because she's done a lot for me. (Jackie collapses) George: Get me a crash cart right now. (Helena's surgery) George: Must have happened when she fell this morning, which means she was bleeding all day. She seemed just fine. Richard: She must have been feeling some major pain. George: Yeah, holding on to that dress, that wasn't easy for her. It was humiliating. It was...but when someone's trying to break you, it gives you drive, gives you strength. Holding on to that dress for hours...I mean, days...you know, just...and in public, refusing to buckle, refusing to be...thats hard-core. I mean, in its own way, that's seriously hard-core. Richard: Rumor has it that Sloan was busy hazing one of his interns today. I take it you didn't buckle. George: No, sir. Richard: Good man, O'Malley. (Mr. Arnolds OR) Mr. Arnold: Uh, I can't feel anything from the neck down. It's almost like the rest of me just...doesn't exist. Izzie: Okay, the sound you're about to hear, that's the saw. Mr. Arnold: That...that's not a pretty sound. I brought you some music. Just listen to this and tune it all out. Mr. Arnold: And...and...and that smell. That...that smell is not... Izzie: That's the cautery. I...I know it's hard, but you'll get used to it. In a moment or two, you won't even notice it. I promise. (Rick's OR) Bailey: He jumped out of that plane. No one forced him to do it. Fell 12,000 feet. People chasing death down, then trying to cheat it. Doesn't make any kind of sense to me. Meredith: There's a clarity thing. When you cross over the edge, there's a moment when everything...just melts away, and you're fearless. I get it. I understand wanting to feel like that. (Jackie's recovery room) Callie: You're awake. Jackie: Did I win? Callie: You should know that your surgery went very well. Jackie: But who won? Is she still holding on? Alex: Helena collapsed. She's in surgery. Jackie: So...so I won? She...she collapsed, which...which means I won, right? Where...where's the judge? Callie: You...the woman that you stood next to for two days almost died. Okay, you've just woken up from surgery, and all that you can think about is if you won a stupid contest? Don't you get it? You...you shouldn't have to fight this hard for a wedding. You fight for a marriage, and sometimes even that is a lost cause. Sometimes you have to know when to let go. So just let go already, all right? Just frickin' let go. Jackie: Yeah, but...did I win? (Cristina is in the gallery with Derek) Cristina: Izzie stuck a picture of a bird on an empty saline bag and put it in his eyeline. Derek: That's smart. I wouldn't have thought of that. Cristina: Yeah. Derek: She doesn't let me take care of her. It's not my job anymore. She won't let me. Cristina: I'm taking care of her. Mr. Arnold: You're, uh...you're, uh you're looking at my heart? You're looking at my... actual heart? Erica: Better than that, Mr. Arnold, we're fixing it. And, uh, all...all those people, uh, up there in the observation deck, they're...they're, uh, looking at it, too? Izzie: They are. Mr. Arnold: People watching me. People watching me instead of, uh...it's...it's so weird, uh, to be the one being watched. It...it's so weird. Erica: How you doing there, Mr. Arnold? You need anything? Mr. Arnold: Uh, uh, it's...it's cold, uh, co-cold in here. Uh, I...I need to cover up. Uh, uh, c-cover me up. Uh, okay? Um, cov-cover me up. C-cov-cover me up. Izzie: Yeah, we're gonna...we're...we're gonna cover your legs with more blankets right now. Mr. Arnold: Oh, c-cov-cover me up. Okay? Okay, cover...cover me up. Izzie: His heart rate's up to 168. Erica: Damn it. Mr. Arnold: You know, uh, ev-everybody's watching, uh, and...and, uh, I...I need to be covered up. I...I need...I...I can't stay like this. I can't stay like this. You need...need...I...I can' I can't. No, stop right now. Just...just stop the surgery. Stop! Stop it! Stop! Stop! Okay, I...I mean it. Get your hands out of me. Please stop! Erica: Mr. Arnold, I need you to calm down so that your heart can calm down. Izzie: Okay, hey, Mr. Arnold. Mr. Arnold, oh. Look at me. Good. Okay. Now I want you to focus on... on the observation deck, okay? Pretend that it's a tree line or a shoreline or something...something with birds. Those aren't people up there watching you, those are birds...your birds...and you're watching them. So tell me, Mr. Arnold, about the birds. Tell me. Tell me about the birds. Mr. Arnold: I...I can't. Izzie: You can. How about her? That woman in...in the far left? What kind of bird would she be? Mr. Arnold: Okay, okay, uh, uh, I guess, um, uh, she...she has a long neck. Uh, so she'd...she'd be an ibis, some kind of ibis. Izzie: Okay, good. Great. Great. Who's next? Mr. Arnold: Uh, okay. That one (refers to Cristina), uh, doing...doing that little, uh, dance with her fingers. Um, she's a...she...she's the purple sandpiper. Uh, yeah, those are tough little birds. Those are survivors. And, um, and him (refers to Derek), uh, with the, uh, the...the sad eyes, uh-huh, he would...he's a, uh, a thrush, a black-headed nightingale thrush. And...and the tall one standing there, (refers to Richard), uh, watching over everything, over, uh, everyone...uh uh, he doesn't miss a thing. He's a...a great blue heron. No question. (George is in the hallway) Callie: Hey, how's, uh, how's, uh, how's your bride? Did she, uh, pull through okay? George: Yeah. Callie: Please tell me that you let go first. I absolutely cannot handle my bride winning that way. What? George: Oh, nothing. Just, uh... I just didn't know if we...we'd ever be able to...talk again. Callie: I'm letting go. I have to...let go. (Callie walks away and George enters Helena's room) Fiancé 2: Why didn't you tell anybody you were hurting? Helena: You would've made me let go. Fiancé 2: Hell yeah, I would've. Helena: I guess I lost anyway. George: No, actually, I let go first. Helena: You did? George: Someone had to catch you. Judge: Here, a 100 grand. Have a nice life. Helena: We won. Oh, my god. I can't believe I'm crying over this. We did this. We actually did this. Fiancé 2: No, sweetie, you did it. This was all you. (Meredith is in Rick's room) Rick: I know this sounds ridiculous, but I'm a little disappointed. I mean, I survived a 12,000-foot freefall, and this is gonna be my only scar? Meredith: It goes away. Rick: The scar? Meredith: The feeling. That feeling that you have right now, today, that feeling like you can do anything, that clarity, it goes away. And you go right back to being the coward who can't tell the person you love how you feel. I saw your video. Rick: You saw the...ok. But you're not gonna let Sally see it, right? You're not gonna let her know what I said? Meredith: Like I said...it goes away. It's going away right now. You have to tell her how you feel, right now while you still can. Rick: She is just so incredible, I mean, at everything she does. She's way out of my league. You don't understand. There is no way that she could possibly feel the same way that... Meredith: Well, if she doesn't feel the same way, then you move on. But if you never find out how she feels, then that won't be your only scar. (Meredith leaves and Sally enters) (Mark and Derek are at Derek's waiting for Richard to arrive) Mark: He doesn't have any secret fetishes, right? He really...he doesn't strike me as a fetish kind of guy. (Richard arrives) Derek: Hey, Richard, you gotta tell us what this evening is about. You've been obtuse, it's been fun but, you know, we're getting a little freaked out now. What's a gentlemen's evening? Richard: It's an evening with no ladies, just gentlemen. Mark: That's it? Richard: Well, yeah. (Erica walks up) Erica: Pretty boys living in the woods. This is very charming. Or sad. I'm not sure which. Mark: What happened to no ladies? Derek: Yeah. Richard: Plans change. (Seattle scenes) (Lexie and Alex are outside the hospital) Lexie: What are you doing tonight? Alex: As in, uh... Lexie: What are you doing tonight? Alex: Look, uh...I'm not a nice guy. I don't date. I don't call the next day. I...I'm not looking for a relationship 'cause I'm never good at 'em. And honestly, I'm kinda hung up on somebody else. So...the only thing you're ever gonna get from me is sex. That's it. And, uh, that's never enough for girls like you. (Alex walks away) MVO: Deep down, everyone wants to believe they can be hard-core. (The gentleman's evening is playing Monopoly) MVO: But being hard-core isn't just about being tough. Richard: Oh, this is just unfair! Erica: In your face, banker. Park place is mine. Give it up. Come on. Yeah, oh, with a hotel! I think you owe him money. (Izzie and George are in bed) MVO: It's about acceptance. Izzie: George. (Crying) I'm exhausted. Every bone...and every muscle in my body...aches. And I don't think I can do this. I don't...it's not that I don't want to, because I do. I really, really do. It's just that I...I just spent six and a half hours on my feet in surgery, and I can barely hold myself up, and I'm just so tired. this is...this is like a...a rare bird, George. You know, I mean, the first time that we're together since...since we were together, and it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I don't want to waste it. I don't want to waste it on a night that I'm too exhausted to enjoy it because I want to enjoy our rare bird, George. I need to enjoy our rare bird. George: Me, too. I...and oh, my hand is just...oh, it's just k*lling me from holding that dress. So maybe to...maybe tonight's not the perfect night. Maybe a perfect night is...another night. Izzie: Really? George: Yeah, yeah. Do you want to maybe, uh...go to sleep? Izzie: Yeah. Oh, thanks. George: Okay. Did you only shave one of your legs? Izzie: I know. I'm sorry. George: No, no, I was just wondering. It's cool. It's...it's okay. Sorry. It's...it's... Izzie: Oh, my god. I can't do it. (Meredith and Cristina are in bed) MVO: Sometimes you have to give yourself permission to not be hard-core for once. Meredith: Maybe I should take a sleeping pill. Cristina: Oh, no. Don't do that. You'll just get strung out and turn into a bad afterschool special. We'll just sleep, and...you'll sleep. Meredith: I can't stop, Cristina. I just can't stop seeing Derek. And it's not about the sex. It's not...about the sex. It's about that moment afterward...when the world stops. It just feels so safe...so safe. I'm not ready to give that up. Does that make me sad and weak and pathetic? Cristina: A little bit. Meredith: What do I do? Cristina: I don't know. MVO: You don't have to be tough every minute of every day. It's okay to let down your guard. In fact, there are moments when it's the best thing you could possibly do (Meredith hears noises from outside her room and goes to investigate. She walks out to see Alex and Lexie together)...as long as you choose your moments wisely. (She slams the door and goes back inside) Lexie: Alex, please tell me that you don't live with Meredith Grey. (Meredith looks shocked in her room)	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x06 - Kung Fu Fighting"}	foreverdreaming
Credit & Thanks to ~ Vibrant Fields ~ Previously on Grey's Anatomy ... Hahn: You're not attracted to me. You think you are, but you're not. Christina to Izzie: You are nowhere near hard-core enough to commit to cardio. George: Why isn't this easier? Izzie: I don't know. George: Well, I want my best friend back. Webber to Bailey: You deserve the job, I should've given it to you in the first place. Bailey: Things are gonna be different from here on in. Your love lives, your hopes and dreams, the little joys and tragedies that make you who you are have no place in my hospital. Bailey to Tucker Sr: This is our son. Tucker Sr: He's beautiful. ***** Christina's Bedroom. She is dancing up a storm. MVO: We go into medicine because we want to save lives. We go into medicine because we want to do good. We go into medicine for the rush, for the high, for the ride. Meredith stands in the doorway. Christina: You're not dancing. Meredith: I'm too tense to dance. Christina: Which is why we're dancing. Meredith: My problem is, I'm sleeping with a man who's dating. And I don't care if he dates Sydney. It's the woman he dates after Sydney, that's my problem. And if I had any sense at all, I would break up with the breakup sex. There would be no more breakup sexing. If I had any sense. Christina: Shut up! Dance it out. MVO: But what we remember at the end of most days are the losses. What we lay awake at night replaying is, the pain we caused or failed to cure, the lives we ruined or failed to save. Meredith: You know, I'm gonna tell him. I don't want him seeing other people. Christina: Good. Fine. Whatever. Meredith: I'm gonna tell him, and I feel good about it. Christina: Dancing makes you brave. MVO: So the experience of practicing medicine rarely resembles the goal. The experience, too often, is ass-backwards and upside down. Izzie comes out of bathroom and sees the two of them dancing. Izzie goes to her room down the hall. George is still in bed. Izzie: I am so sick of Meredith and Cristina and their stupid love affair with each other that they have to rub in everyone's faces. This stupid dancing. Friggin' Bobbsey twins. Stupid! George: You're ranting. It's kinda early in the morning for ranting. Izzie: We're supposed to be the happy ones. We should be dancing, George. Why aren't we dancing? George: You want to dance? Izzie: Whatever. I'm gonna go in early. I'm gonna get on hard-core Erica Hahn cardio, and I'm gonna kick ass at it. And when I kick ass at cardio, it's gonna piss Cristina off, but it won't matter, because I'll be a kick-ass cardio god. *** Bailey's Kitchen Tucker Sr: I'm just staying, you're never here. Bailey: Hold on, hold on. I mess up the rotation schedule, the residents are gonna dog me all week. Okay. Tucker Sr: You're never here. Bailey: I'm here in the mornings. I'm here at night. Tucker Sr: You're here between midnight and 6:00 a. m. Bailey: I'm chief resident now. Tucker Sr: And I'm loading the dishwasher! Bailey: (to the baby) Hi. (to Tucker) You volunteered to stay home with T-U-C-K. Tucker Sr: Who else was gonna take care of T-U-C-K? Bailey: I'm late for work. Okay. (to baby) Hey, honey. Tucker Sr: We need to talk. Bailey: Okay, uh, take the baby by your mom, and meet me for lunch, okay? We'll talk then. Tucker Sr: Well, why can't we talk here? Bailey: 'Cause I'm only here between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a. m. Now come on. Now just meet me for lunch, Tucker. Come on now. Tucker Sr: Lunch. Bailey: Yes, lunch. ******* closed office. Meredith and Derek are putting on their scrubs. Meredith: Thatcher's not my problem. He can get drunk all he wants. I don't care. Derek: Right. Meredith: I don't care about Lexie, either. She's a big girl. She can take care of herself. Derek: You talk about them an awful lot for someone who doesn't care. You care because you're you. Meredith: You're gonna make me late for my meeting with Sloan. Derek: Well, okay then, go. Meredith stops at the door and looks at Derek. Derek: What? Meredith: Nothing. I'm ... gonna be late. Hallway; Lexie is walking down the hallway. Alex is behind her and tries to catch up. Alex: Hey Lexie: I'm late for Sloan's meeting. Alex: Yeah, so am I. Lexie: Also, I'm not speaking to you. Alex pull her into a side office and kisses her. Lexie: I'm still not speaking to you. Alex: You don't have to speak. He leans in to kiss her again. Meredith walks down the hallway and sees him. Meredith: (to Alex) Late for Sloan. Nick's room; The room is packed with Nurses, Interns, Doctors. Sloan: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, this is Nick Hanscomb. Nick (played by Seth Green): Hi. Sloan: Nick was lucky enough to have me remove a large carotid body tumor from his neck. The fact that I was able to get clean boundaries is pretty darn impressive, even for me. Derek: Congratulations. Sloan: Don't interrupt. Now despite the fact that it was a wildly successful surgery, we had to dissect out deep lymph nodes in his neck. There is now only a delicate flap of skin between his carotid artery and the outside world. That said, what am I worried about? Meredith: I would think given the friability of the skin, that there's a great possibility that the, um, the artery could blow? Sloan: Right. Nick: Oh, don't worry. I've ... I've heard this before. Sloan: If that happens, whoever's in the room, I don't care if it's a doctor, a nurse, an orderly, your job is to stop the bleeding then page me, in that order. Are we clear? Any questions? Nick: They look scared. Sloan: They're medical professionals, Nick. A healthy level of fear is encouraged. Nick: Okay, then, uh, if I do die, it will have been lovely meeting you all. Sloan: See? The patient is confident. You should be confident. That's it. * Ambulance Bay Bailey: What do we got? Stan: Jacob Nolston, 47, status post a double bypass surgery two weeks ago, now presents febrile with pain and tenderness in his surgical incisions. Ray: We got a 10-car pileup on the freeway. You mind taking him from here? Bailey: Oh, you got it. Callie: Okay, I need a gurney for the transfer. Izzie: I'll page Hahn. Christina: I'll page Hahn. Bailey: Sounds like we all agree. Get him inside and flip for it. Shane: You're in good hands, Mr. Nolston. Jacob: Thank you, gentlemen. Callie: On three. One, two, three. Christina: When are you gonna realize you're in over your head? Izzie: When are you gonna realize that you don't own the cardio department? Christina: He's my patient. Izzie: I got here first. Dibs. Meredith looks down the street and sees another ambulance on its way in. Meredith: Hey, you guys. Christina: You can't call dibs on a human being. The ambulance is not slowing down and still headed their direction. Meredith: You guys, I think we should move. Izzie: Let go of the gurney. Christina: You let go. The ambulance is now very close and still at full speed with sirens blaring. Meredith: Move! All of them rush back into the hospital. The ambulance comes racing in and slams into the first ambulance, which flips over onto it's roof. *** Jacob: Arrh! Ah, my leg! Izzie: (to Christina) You okay? Christina: (to Izzie) I'm good. Let's go. They wheel Jacob into the Hospital. Bailey leads everyone towards the ambulances. Bailey: Call the fre department! Get some gurneys out here! Callie: Ray. Ray, can you hear me? Ray: Stan? Stan? Oh, my god. Stan, open your eyes, man. Oh, man. Don't scare me like that. Meredith: Let's get you guys outta there. Callie: No, stop. Stop! Don't touch anything. Don't touch anything until fre sab the rig. These doors aren't gonna budge. Bailey: Uh, Torres, I need your help here! Get the driver! Callie: Okay, on my way! (to Meredith) All right, listen. Just page somebody to help you and keep them talking. You got this? Meredith: Yeah. Stan: Don't leave. Don't. Meredith: Okay. Somebody page the chief. *** Other Ambulance; Bailey opens the back doors and sees a EMT and a patient. Bailey: Hey, you okay? Shane: No, but I'm not as bad off as this guy. He started coding after we picked him up. Mary had some kind of seizure. Bailey moves to the patient. Callie appears at the driver's side. Callie: Mary? Mary, come on, girl. Wake up. I need some help here. Bailey: There's no pulse. We'll call the coroner. Let me check your injuries. Shane: No. (to Callie) Is she dad? Bailey: (to herself to get into position to check Shane) Yeah, I'll go around. Callie: No, but she looks postictal. She's also got a bad elbow dislocation and a weak pulse. Shane: She was driving, she was talking to me. She just started convulsing, and then we slammed into that other rig. Bailey: (to Shane) All right. You think you can move? Shane: Yeah. Bailey goes to put a neck collar on Shane. He bats her away. Bailey: Hey, now you know I need to sab you. You know the drill. Shane: My c-spine's clear. I can walk. Bailey: Well, come on. (she backs out of the ambulance) Where are you injured? Shane: My gut. Upper abdomen. Listen, I know this is gonna sound weird, but do you think you could get me a guy doctor? *********** Nick's Room Nick: How am I doing? Lexie: Strong and sab. Nick: Strong and sab? Two words that have never been used to describe me, ever. (bat) You're a pretty girl. I hope you don't think that's rude. I'm just. I haven't been allowed to notice that kind of thing for a while and. Now I'm allowed. Lexie: You're allowed to notice prettiness? Nick: Well, I'm allowed to notice, uh, other women, women other than my girlfriend. My now, uh, ex-girlfriend. Lexie: Oh, I'm sorry. Nick: Yeah, giant neck tumors weren't her thing. Lexie: She left you because of the tumor? Nick: Of course not. No. She left me because, uh, I didn't make her laugh anymore, and, uh, she had just lost that lovin' feeling. Lexie: She left you because of the tumor. That sucks. Nick: Yep. (bat) You seeing anyone? I'm ... I'm just making conversation. My artery's exposed, you know, which kind of limits my game. Lexie: Okay, uh. Yes. Well, kind of, I am. Nick: Nice guy? Lexie: Yeah, he is. Well, he's kind of, um, he's kind of a nice guy disguised as a jerk. Nick: Oh, yeah, I-I know that type. My.. my girlfriend was a ... nice girl, disguised as a vapid narcissist. But then it turned out she really was just a vapid narcissist. Lexie: Ouch. Nick: Yeah. So you really like this guy? Even though he doesn't have a super cool exposed carotid artery? Lexie: Yeah, I do. ********** Derek: What's going on in the pit? You just wiped the surgical board. Rose: Oh, uh, a couple of ambulances crashed into each other, so I'm canceling all electives to free up the O.R. s for emergent surgeries. Derek: Are we friends yet? Rose: I'm sorry? Derek: Friends. Are we friends? I-I know I just learned your name and all, Rose, but I ... I'd like to think I could call you a friend. Rose: Why? Derek: Because if I'm your friend, I could tell you about the licorice stuck in your teeth. Whereas a mere acquaintance, I'd smile politely and pretend it wasn't there. Rose: Thank you. Derek: (as he walks away) Yeah. ******* Wife: Jacob! Sandra: Dad. Jacob: Hey, guys. Sandra: You okay? Wife: What happened to your leg? Jacob: There was a ... a little accident, but, uh, I'm okay. It doesn't hurt. Wife: Well, what kind of an accident? Jacob: Um, the ambulances crashed. Wife: The ambulances crashed? Jacob: Sandra, tell your mother not to panic. Sandra: Stop panicking, mom. Lucy: Is his heart okay? Izzie: What's your name? Lucy: Lucy. Izzie: Lucy. I'm Izzie. Your dad's heart is hurt, but we're gonna work really hard to make it better, okay? Hahn: I was paged. Dr. Yang? Christina: Oh, I ... Jacob Nolston, two weeks post-op from a CABG. My initial exam suggests a sternal infection. Izzie: Our initial exam. Christina: And he also sustained injuries to his leg from an accident outside the E. R. Hahn: Okay, Stevens, when you can tear yourself away, page Torres about the shrapnel in this man's leg. And you can work with her today. I only need one. ** Exam Room Shane: No. Bailey: You have to let me examine you. Shane: I can wait. I'll wait for a guy. Bailey: Uh, you're shy. Okay, I-I get that. This is no time for shy. Now my hands may be smaller than a man's, but my brain is much larger, I assure you. Now you're just going to have to let me examine you right. Shane: No, do not ... do not touch me. Bailey: For the love of ... Webber: Dr. Bailey, you have an emergent situation? Bailey: No, he says he wants a male doctor. He doesn't want my female hands to touch him. Webber: Let me see his chart. Um, Shane. I'm Dr. Webber. I'm gonna palpate your abdomen. Shane: No, no. Webber: I thought you said he wanted a male doctor. Bailey: He did. Shane: No, look, I-I just. I meant. I-I want another. I want a different doctor. I'll wait for a different doctor. Bailey: A different doctor? Webber: You mean you want a white doctor. (looks at Bailey with controlled emotion) I have paramedics hanging upside down. Can you handle ... this? Bailey: Yes, sir. I can. ***** Exam Room; Callie and nurse are looking at Mary's elbow. Derek walks in and picks up the x-ray. Derek: Dr. Torres. Callie: This is Mary Daltry. She, uh, lost consciousness behind the wheel. Mary: You're the neuro guy? Derek: Yes, I'm Dr. Shepherd. Mary: Why did I have a seizure? I don't know. I mean, I've never had a seizure before. I mean, I'm fine, except apparently I caused this accident. Derek: Call radiology. Let's get her in for an M.R.I. George: Yes, sir. Mary: How's Shane. My partner? Does anybody know? George: I think he's with Dr. Bailey. Mary: That's good. Callie: Okay, I'm ready to fix the arm. Are you ready, Mary? Mary: Is it gonna hurt? George: Yes, but ... Callie: George. George: But Dr. Torres is very good. Callie: Okay, Dr. Shepherd, are you good? Derek: Yeah, I'm good. All right, as soon as I get some more information, I'm gonna let you know, okay, Mary? Mary: Okay. Derek: All right. (he and George leave) Callie readjusts Mary's arm and she shouts in pain. ******* Webber: How's it going in there, fellas? Stan: I think, uh, I think that they better get us out of here. Ray: Yeah. If we're putting it to a vote, I think we better get out of here, fast. Webber: I'm afraid "keep still", is the best we can do for now. Don't want to make anything worse. We'll get you some pain meds as soon as possible. Stan: Sir? Webber: Call me Richard. Stan: Richard, can you tell me, my legs, are they broken? Webber: I-I can't see your legs. Stan: How come? Webber: Oh, your ... your body's trapped in the door. You can't feel ... I can't. I can't. You can't feel that? Stan: I can't. I can't feel anything. Ray: His ears are bleeding. Webber: Yeah, I see, Ray. Stan: Can you get my wife? She works here. She's an x-ray tech. Webber: You bet. Ray: Stan, you don't die on me. You hear me? I'll be so pissed if you die on me. Stan: I'm doing my best, man. Webber: Get Stan's wife here now. Meredith: But what do we ... how do we ... Webber: we don't. Meredith: Okay, we have a whole hospital ... Webber: The moment we move him, he's gonna bleed out. All the medicine in the world won't save him. His wife has to get here soon if she wants to see her husband alive. Now move. (Meredith leaves) Stan: Talk to me. I need you to help me hold on until Sara gets here. Ray: I'm not helping you hold on, cause you're not dying. Webber: Ray. Talk to him. Help him. Ray: Remember the night you met Sara ... at Joe's? You used that ... that stupid line about ... About the bet over the song lyrics? Stan: Right. Right. What was that song? It was, uh. It was. "I can see clearly now, the rain is gone. Both: I can see all the obstacles in my way gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day. It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day. Stan: What comes next? Ray: I don't know. Webber: "I think I can make it now, the pain is gone." Stan: I, um, I can't believe Sara fell for that line. Listen, when you get outta here, you're gonna have a great story to tell. You can tell it in the bar. You tell 'em how you got into this accident and your best friend died. Chicks love that stuff. (bat) Ray. Don't tell Sara that I was talkin' about you gettin' tail right before I died. Ray: Okay. Webber: She should be here any minute. Just hold on, Stan. *** Exam Room ; Alex is tending to a patient with Sloan. Hahn walks in. Hahn: Dr. Sloan. I have a patient, 13 days status post CABG with a sternal infection. Sloan: So you're gonna remove the sternum? Hahn: And I need you to manipulate the pectoral muscles so we don't leave a giant hole in the man's chest. Can you make time? Sloan: Can you make time for a drink with me after? Hahn: Did I mention time is a factor here? I'm looking for a yes or no answer. Sloan: As am I. Hahn: This may be enjoyable to you, Dr. Sloan, but I have a patient in serious condition. I came to you because legend has it that you're the best in plastics. But if bad jokes and sleazy come-ons are what I'm in for all afternoon, I'll page whoever's second best. Sloan: Dr. Hahn. I apologize. And I'll clear my schedule. Hahn: Thank you. O.R. 1. Sloan: (to Alex at the desk) Uh, why don't you clean this up here and, uh, clear my schedule, and you can scrub in? Alex: Thank you. Sloan leaves. Alex: (to patient) Sorry about that. Ava walks in. Alex: (to patient) I'm sorry. I'll be right back. Alex takes Ava into the hallway. Ava: So, coffee? Alex: I can't. Ava: You can't? When I was your patient, you made time for me. Alex: 'Cause you were my patient. Ava: And here I thought it was 'cause you liked me. Alex: Look, I'm really sorry. I gotta finish up with this patient, and then I'm scrubbing in on a surgery, and it's one I've never seen before. Ava: Can I watch? Alex: What? Ava: Can I watch the ... the surgery? Can I ... can you sneak me in? Alex: No. You know how much trouble I'd get in for that? Ava: Come on. Since when are you a rule follower? There's always a dozen people in the back of the O.R. And there's a gallery. Alex: Ava. Ava: Please. ********* fre Department: We're ready to go. Webber: Hold off for a moment. His wife's arriving. (to Stan) Stan, Sara's here. Ray: Stan, wake up, man. Sara's here. Wake up! Stan: (in a lot of pain) That's good. That's good. Stan's Wife: Baby? Baby. Hey. ******* Exam Room; Izzie, Christina, Callie and patient Jacob. Callie: Your x-ray shows that the metal's embedded in your femur, so I'm gonna go in and remove it while Dr. Hahn and Dr. Sloan repair the damage caused by the infection. Jacob: Repair the damage? They're removing my chest bone. Why is this all happening? My kids shouldn't have to see me this way. It's a dad's job to worry. You worry about your kids. Worry about 'em every day of their lives. But they aren't supposed to have to worry about dad. They aren't supposed to have to comfort their mom. Why am I back here? My kids. Izzie: Your kids are fine. They're taking care of each other, and they're fine. Lucy was hungry, and the others were, too, so your wife took them to the cafeteria. The point is, they're fine. They just want their dad to get better. Jacob: You'll keep an eye on 'em? When I'm in surgery, you'll keep them updated? 'Cause my wife, she, uh, she gets panicky if she doesn't know what's going on. Izzie: I will keep her updated. *** Nurse's Station; Hahn is looking at charts. Bailey walks up. Bailey: Uh, I would like to borrow Dr. Yang. It's important. Can you spare her? Hahn: Torres, can I steal Stevens off your service? Callie: I'll give her away for free. Hahn: Yang's all yours, Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Thank you. Hahn: Yang, Stevens. Dr. Yang, Dr. Bailey has requested your capable hands. Dr. Stevens, take over prepping Mr. Nolston for surgery. Christina: But what ... wait. Hahn: Oh, just take it up with Dr. Bailey, Yang. ************ Computer Room; Alex is at terminal. Derek walks in. Derek: Hey. Alex: Hey. Derek: Mary's scans come up yet? Alex: Not yet. Derek: What's going on with you and Stevens? Just because I don't sleep in your house anymore doesn't mean I don't hear the gossip. Alex: Why are we talking about this? We don't talk. Oh, you're ... you miss Meredith and you're clinging. Derek: I'm not clinging. Alex: Oh, a little bit, you're clinging. Derek: No, I'm just making small talk. Alex: Ah, um, okay, cool. Here we go. Derek: A tumor. Shane: Look, I'm hurt. I'm really hurt here. Bailey: You just lie there and try not to die. Someone will be here soon to save the master race from extinction. Shane: Oh, okay. Christina: Dr. Bailey, can I talk to you a minute? (they step out) I mean no disrespect, but can you please tell me you have an amazingly good reason for pulling me off of Dr. Hahn's service when you know I have been fighting tooth and nail to get into her good graces? Bailey: You're not black. But you're not white either. (they step in) Dr. Yang will be examining you. Shane: Oh, come on. Are you kidding? Bailey: Okay, you have medical training. How long do you think you have to live if you have internal injuries? Exactly. I seriously recommend you let this fine doctor examine you. Dr. Yang, give him the best medical treatment possible. It's the law. Christina: Sir, I need you to move your hands. He moves his hands. There is a large swastika tatoo on his abdomen. Shane: Look, I-I just didn't want her to see. I thought she might take offense, you know? **** Ambulance bay Sara: I'm not gonna leave you. I'm not leaving here right now without you. Okay? Meredith: I've never seen her before. Webber: What? Meredith: I've never seen her before. I've worked in this hospital all this time, and before today, she was a complete stranger to me. Webber: It happens. It's a big hospital. Meredith: I've never met her before, and yet, I'm the person who handed her the worst day of her life. In her story, that's who I am. That's who I'll always be. Webber: That's the job. Meredith: That's the job, I know. Webber: Look at me. This day, this day you feel helpless. This day makes all those other days when you fight to save a life and lose, this day makes you grateful you have a chance to do anything at all. You take it in. It's time. ****** Exam Room Shane: Can you go easy? I'm injured here. Christina: You've had plenty of morphine. You'll be fine. It's not like you're in a concentration camp or anything. Shane: You know, when people are young or drunk, they get tattoos. They wake up to regret it. Christina: Oh, so you regret it? Shane: You gotta treat me like anyone else. That's the beauty of this country. Christina: Oh, yes, it is. **** Exam Room: Mary: So, you're gonna drill into my skull? Derek: O'Malley. George: Dr. Shepherd's gonna do what we call a cookie craniotomy. Uh, he's gonna drill a very, very small hole, and then with a computer, he's going to guide the scope through your brain. It's as minimally invasive as possible. Mary: It's just ... it's weird, you know, to be on the other side of all this. How are Stan and Ray? And shane? Oh, my god. Oh, my god. How did this happen? Derek: She's seizing. *** O.R. 1 Izzie: I always knew you were an ass, but seriously, you brought Jane Doe into the gallery? Are you trying to get yourself kicked out of the program? Alex: She wanted to see what I do. Izzie: I thought you were seeing Lexie. Alex: I'm a popular guy. Hahn: I'm sure whatever you're talking about is endlessly fascinating, Dr. Karev, but I kind of had my heart set on saving a life today. Alex: Sorry. Hahn: So, let's begin. *** Lexie: Hey. Nurse Olivia said you needed to see me. Are you okay? Nick: My book is bad, and I hate daytime television, and all my friends are at work. Lexie: Yeah, well, I'm at work, too. I'm an intern. I'm supposed to be learning things. Nick: You can ... you can learn about my artery. You can never know too much about arteries, right? Come on. I have no one to talk to. Lexie: Fine, but I'm taking your vitals again. Nick: Okay. So, uh, you want to help me plot my revenge? Lexie: Girlfriend? Nick: Here's what I'm thinking. I page her here, and then, uh, you know, I'm all, like, "I'm dying, and I just need to gaze at your beauty one last time," and then, and then she gets here, and I flash her the artery. Lexie: It's mean. Nick: Right? Lexie: I like it. Nick: Okay, can you get me a phone? **** Ambulance Bay Webber: Gentlemen, the moment they pull apart the rig, we're gonna come in and grab you. Ray: You take Stan, first. Webber: Once we get in there and assess, then we'll see who goes first. Ray: No, you take Stan first. You take Stan first. Stan: Ray. I think I'm gonna be okay. I'm starting to feel a little better. Ray: Don't you screw with me. Stan: No. No, I'm probably not as bad as I think. I'm probably just paralyzed. Richard, you think maybe that I can get out of here just paralyzed, right? Meredith: It's possible. It happens. Ray: Really? Stan: See. Ray: Okay. Okay. Stan: Is my wife inside? She won't see any of this? Webber: No. Stan: You'll be where I can look at you? Meredith: I'm right here, where you can look at me. Stan: Then let's do this. Ray: Try to live, man. Stan: You, too. The crane begins lifting the ambulance up. Stan is signalling Meredith. Meredith: Stop. Stop. Stop! Stop! Make them stop! Stop! Stop! Webber: What the hell are you doing? Meredith: It's Stan! Stan: Ray. Ray's back. It's in deep. He'll bleed out if you move us. Webber: It's the oxygen regulator. It's embedded in his back. Ray! Ray, you still with us? Ray: I'm here, chief. I'm still here. But my pulse is weak. Webber: Okay, he's sweaty and breathing fast, and with the angle of that regulator. Meredith: It's cardiac tamponade. Webber: If that regulator caused a tear in his heart and we move him, the regulator could move. Meredith: It'll make the tear bigger. Ray: Please let's don't flood my heart. Please. Webber: We'll sab him in the ambulance. Stan. You're a hero, man. You saved Ray's life. Ray: Stan? Damn it, Stan. Stan. Webber: Go get the ultrasound so we can be sure, and bring a crash cart just in case, and go find where Hahn is. **** Christina: Okay. Films are up. Bailey: Yeah, there's intraperitoneal bleeding. Christina: His liver looks completely ruptured. Bailey: Yeah, he's gonna need a laparotomy, but maybe it'll be pretty straightforward. Christina: Oh, so I can get back to Hahn's service? Or not? Bailey: No. If I have to work on this man, so do you. Christina:Why? You don't need me. He has a swastika on his abdomen, a giant black swastika. My stepfather's parents died in Auschwitz. Bailey: Okay. You and I will do this. We will do this and we will consider ourselves having risen above. We'll rise ... above. *** O.R. Callie pulls out a huge piece of shrapnel from Jacob's leg during surgery. Izzie sees Lexie enter the gallery and sit next to Ava. Izzie: You're busted. Alex: Save it. Hahn: You're using a cable instead of wires, Dr. Sloan. I've never seen it done that way before. Sloan: Tension banding. Learned it back in New York. I moved there after Columbia to study under John Seever. He was a great surgeon. He died last year. I was wrecked, couldn't sleep for weeks. It was like losing my own father. Hahn: What, are we on a date here? I was complimenting your surgical skills, Dr. Sloan, not looking for a window into your wounded soul. Clamp, please. **** Christina, Bailey and several nurses are wheeling Shane to the O.R. Shane: You can't operate. I won't sign the consent form. Bailey: You need the surgery. You will die without the surgery. You may die with the surgery, but your chance of living is greatly increased if you let me operate. Shane: And it's just gonna be you two in there? Christina: Yes. Shane: No. I need to have at least one white doctor in that operating room so you don't kll me on the table. No offense. Bailey: No offense? Christina: Did he just say no offense? Bailey: Shepherd. Derek: Yeah. Bailey: I need O'Malley. Derek: We're about to go into surgery. Bailey: I need O'Malley. Derek: You okay, Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Don't cross me. Derek: Oh, I wasn't crossing you. Bailey: I'm rising above. I am rising above and do not want to be crossed while I'm busy rising. I have to operate on a white supremacist, and he has requested a white doctor to watch me to make sure that I don't kll his crazy white behind. Now I need O'Malley. Can I have him or not? Derek: Yeah, O'Malley, go with Dr. Bailey. George: Yes, sir. Bailey: Get him to sign the consent, then have him anesthetized and ready. Derek: Dr. Bailey, you're well within your rights to pass this on to somebody else. Bailey: Well, that would make me like him, and I'm not like him. ***** OR Prep room Rose: Oh, sorry, Dr. Shepherd, I'm running behind today. I'll be out of your way in just a second. Derek: Well, actually, Rose, I'm early, so technically, I'm in your way. Rose: Oh, well, in that case, don't let it happen again. (pause) You're staring at my chest. Derek: What? Rose: I think maybe you're intending to admire my ring, but it's coming off as you staring at my chest. Derek: Oh, sorry. It's just that, uh, you wear your engagement ring on your necklace. Rose: When I was engaged, I wore it on my finger. Now, yeah, necklace. The stone was my grandmother's. I don't want to lose it. Derek: Sorry Rose: Sorry, why? Derek: About your engagement. Did you call it off recently? Rose: Well, that's a pretty personal question. Derek: Yeah, well, we're friends now. I mean, I saved you hours of potential licorice humiliation, so I think you can ... It ended a year ago, and you have nothing to be sorry about. Rose: It was never gonna work out. Derek: How come? Rose: Because I was always very clear about what I wanted, and he wasn't. And there's no way to build a future on that. Derek: Yeah. ***** Ambulance; Ray starts to panic Ray: Please, please. I-I can't be in here! I'm gonna die in here! Webber: No, no, Ray, Ray! Ray, you can't do that. You have to stay perfectly still. You cannot move. Meredith: Ray, look at me. Don't look at Stan. Look at me. You are not gonna die today, okay? Say it! Ray:I'm not gonna die. Meredith: You are not going to die today. Webber: He'll need a pericardiocentesis if it's a tamponade, but we need to get an ultrasound to be sure. Meredith: I can do it. I can get in. Webber: Meredith... Meredith: I can fit. **** O.R. Everyone is standing in the OR waiting for Dr. Bailey. Dr. Bailey has her eyes closed. George: Dr. Bailey? Bailey: I'm calling on Jesus this time. Don't bother me when I'm calling on Jesus. I don't do it very often. He might not hear me. They all wait a moment. Dr. Bailey opens her eyes. Bailey: Scalpel. ***** Surgery gallery Ava: It's amazing, isn't it? How technical it all is, how impersonal? They're ... they're basically just mechanics, but, like, God's mechanics because what they're actually doing down there is saving a life. So you're a surgeon? Lexie: Surgical intern, first year. What about you? Ava: Oh, um, I'm not actually supposed to be here. The guy that I'm. ... I'm, you know. Lexie: Your ... your husband? Ava: No. No, no, not my husband. The guy that ... anyways, I'm just ... I wanted to see him operate. Lexie: Oh, Dr. Sloan. Oh, I get it. No, no, I'm not judging. I mean, he's kind of insanely hot. Ava: I mean ... he is, but I'm not ... I'm not with him. I'm with ... him. Do you know him? Lexie: No. No, I-I don't know him at all. ******* Baily: I'm supposed to be having lunch with my husband, O'Malley. George: Yes, ma'am. Baily: I'm supposed to be having lunch with my husband, and instead I am elbow deep in a nzi's gut. George: Yes, ma'am. Baily: No one better ever call me "nzi" again. George: Yes, ma'am. ******************** Derek: All right, okay. A little suction right there, please. That's good ... good. Okay. All right. I should be able to access the tumor now. What's going on? Did we lose power? Rose: No, the other monitors are fine. It must be the stereotactic computer. Nothing. It's dad. Derek: Are you kidding me? I'm in the woman's brain. Are you kidding me? The navigational system is dad? Rose: Should we try to get another machine? Derek: Look, if I remove the probe without a guide, it won't be just the machine that's dad. Call the company. Tell them to get over here as quickly as possible. Tell 'em we need somebody here now. ** Ambulance bay; Meredith crawls into the overturned ambulance through the side door window. Webber: Take it slow, Grey. There's ... there's glass all around you. Meredith pauses over Stan and checks is vitals. Meredith: I'm sorry, Stan. Oh, I'm so sorry. Webber: Here. Ray (in barely a whisper): It's okay. He doesn't mind. Meredith: We're losing him, chief. Webber: Okay, get in there, Grey. Don't worry about Stan. Just get in there. **** Exam Room Nick: Hey. Lexie: Hi. Nick: You, uh, checking in on me again? Lexie: Yep. Nick: Will you call me strong and s*ab again? Lexie: Let's hope. Nick: What's wrong with you? Lexie: What makes you think something's wrong? Nick: Well, your cheeks are all flushed, which they ... they weren't earlier. Is it creeping you out, how observant I am? I'm sorry. It's the boredom, I'm telling you. Lexie: Remember your girlfriend who just turned out to be a vapid narcissist? Nick: Your boyfriend turned out to just be a jerk. Lexie: Jerk, ass, and many dirtier words that are inappropriate for me to use in front of a patient. Nick: I'm sorry. Lexie: Yeah, me, too. Nick: Well, you want me to help you plot your revenge? Lexie: Okay. Nick: Okay. Here's what I'm thinking. You go out with me. Just like that. Bam! New boyfriend. And he'll be all, "What's he got that I don't have? " And you'll be all, "carotid artery ... exposed. Top that, Loser." And he'll be all, "I can't. "I can't top that. No. I am a loser." While Nick and Lexie share the joke, the laughter causes Nick's artery to blow. End of Episode	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x09 - Crash Into Me"}	foreverdreaming

View of patient Nick with his artery blwing out. ******** View of skyline, ambulance flipping, computer screen, then Meredith and Christina dancing in slow motion blurry as in a dream MVO: At the end of the day, the experience of practicing medicine bears little resemblance to the dream. Scene of Alex and Ava Kissing Ava: Are you ... are you ... are you really okay? Alex: Yeah. (he kisses her again) Ava: Alex, come on. Ava: That was intense ... intense and crazy and just awful. H-how can you be okay after a day like that? Alex just pulls her back to him and kisses him again. MVO: We go into medicine because we want to save lives. View of O.R.

Did you tell them I was in the middle of somebody's brain? Rose: Yes. The tech is still in spokane. (bat) You can't just pull the probes out and go to a full craniotomy? Derek: No. (turns to intern beside him)Why not? Steve: Uh, the probe is in the tumors. Pulling out without the navigation system could damage the brain tissue. And you can't leave the probe in very long without risking swelling. Derek: That's good. What's your name? Steve: Two. Steve. Steve Mostow. Dr. Steve Mostow, intern. Derek: All right, steve, I need you to run to the nurses' station. Tell them to make an announcement. Tell them we need computer technicians in O.R. Three. Go fast, and scrub in on your way back. Steve: Yes, sir. Rose: Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Yes. Rose: I did three semesters in computer science before I switched to nursing. I don't know what's wrong, but if it's something reasonably basic, I. Derek: I'd feel a lot better about this if your voice wasn't shaking. Rose: My voice shakes when I'm nervous. I'm an imperfect person, but it doesn't mean I can't fix the computer. Derek: All right, rose has three semesters of computer science at ... what school did you go to? Rose: Santa Cruz. Derek: That's a party school. Rose: You want to insult my education, or do you want me to try and help you save your patient? Derek: Ay, who can bat three semesters of computer science at santa cruz? Anybody? Okay, give it a sht. Rose: I appreciate the vote of confidence. (She turns and goes behind the machine.) * Ambulance Bay; Meredith is doing a sonogram on Ray's chest inside the ambulance. Meredith: Can you see anything yet? Webber: Uh, I see the diaphragm moving. Move it up a little more. Meredith? Meredith: I'm working on it. Ray: You're not doing a very good job. Meredith: I am doing a damn fine job. Don't you worry. Ray: Can you ... can you ... can you close his eyes? Meredith: What? Ray: Stan ... can you ... can you close his eyes? Meredith (to Stan): I'm sorry ... so sorry. Webber: Meredith, um, uh, stop. Stop right there. I want to freeze that frame. Yeah, his pericardium's full of blood. Ray: That's not good. That's not good at all. Webber: Oxygen, I. V. Start kits. Arnie, monitor. Uh, you, pericardiocentesis kit. His anaty's all screwed up because he's hanging upside down. Get someone from cardio. Go. ******** Scrub Room; Bailey and Christina enter after finishing with patient Shane. Bailey: I got tucker waiting for me in the lobby, and I'm already late.

George: Dr. Bailey, there's something wrong with him. His blood pressure's bottomed out. Dr. Bailey? Bailey: O'Malley ... okay, I need you to talk to tucker. I need you to ask him to wait. And he's not going to be inclined to wait, so I need you to ask him nicely. Can you please go and ask him nicely to wait? George: Yes, ma'am. Bailey: I won't be long. ********* OR; surgery on patient Jacob Hahn: You see this, Stevens? The sternum's cleaned out, which means we're almost outta here. Sloan: You don't want to stay and watch me work? Hahn: You know, it's offensive, Dr. Sloan, flat-out. Sloan: I asked you if you wanted to stay and watch me work. How's that offensive? Hahn: Oh, and now you play dumb? Does that work for you because of the way you look? Sloan: What the hell are you talking about? Hahn: I'm saying, if you were homely, you would've lost your job a long time ago. (Phone rings and is answered by a nurse) Nurse: Dr. Hahn, the chief needs you in the ambulance bay. We have a paramedic with cardiac tamponade. Hahn: All righty, then. Let's go, Stevens. ************* Nick's Room; Lexie is still holding Nick's neck and she is starting to panic Lexie: Okay. Nick, can, uh, can you reach your call button? Nick: I think so. (he reaches for it, but her fingers slip and blood starts to spurt) Lexie: No, no, no, no. Don't move that much. Okay, um, uh ... just ... can ... can you reach your phone ... without moving very much? Nick: I think so. I think so. (he slow reaches without look to the phone on the desk.) I got it. Lexie: Okay, good. Good, good, good. Okay, um, dial ... al 8, okay? Nick: okay. (he finds the button without looking) Is that ... is that 8? Lexie: Okay, okay. Put it to my ear, okay? (Nurse on the other end): hello, nurses' station. Lexie: Hi. Hi, uh, this is Dr. Grey. Um, yeah, Mr. Hanscomb's carotid just blew. Uh, c-c-can you page Dr. Sloan for me, please? A-and also Dr. Yang? And ... ah! (the artery starts to spurt some more) I'm gonna go ahead and call this a code blue. Yes, code blue. Can you announce that, please? (Nurse on the other end):Right away. Lexie: Thank you. Okay, you can put it down now. Nick: Code blue. That means I'm dad, right? I mean that's what they call when people go, like, flatline? Lexie: No. I figure we can use all the help we can get. (a team of nurses come in and start to set up in the room) ******** OR; Christina and Bailey are back in the surgery on patient Shane. A pager on a table goes off. Bailey: I don't care who it is. I don't care who it is, Jolene. I am leaving this hospital when I am finished here. I don't care if the patient is on fre. I'm not scrubbing in anywhere else. Nurse: It's Dr. Yang's. Lexie Grey is paging you 9-1-1. Dr. Yang, your intern called a code blue on a patient who apparently is not code blue. Christina: What do you mean? Why would she call a code if- - Bailey: Go find out. Christina: Well, I thought you needed me here. You said you needed me here, and that's why you pulled me off of cardio. Bailey: No, I'm fine. Go kick some intern butt. (Christina leaves) ********* Nick: How you doing, Dr. Grey? Lexie. I'm okay. You okay? Nick: Well, I'm a little freaked out if I'm being honest. Mostly 'cause you look like carrie at the prom. Seriously, you're wearing, like, half my blood. Lexie: Which is why we're hanging some more right now. Tyler: I'm having trouble getting a vein. Lexie: Why? Tyler: He's hypovolemic. His veins are flaccid. Nick: That's not a nice thing to say. That ... that's not a nice thing to say at all. Ow! okay! (He clearly was hurt with the IV line and starts to move around in pain) Son of a bitch! (Lexie is having a hard time keeping her fingers in place on his neck) Lexie: It's okay! (Christina enters) Christina : Grey, stop that bleeding. Lexie: It's okay. I ... my hand slipped. I-I got it. Nick: That ... that can't happen anymore. That can't happen anymore, okay? Christina (quietly to Lexie): Just apply steady, firm pressure. Lexie: I-I called for Sloan. Should we just take him to an O.R.? Or ... Christina; No, there's no O.R. I was just down there. Lexie: Oh. Tyler, uh, you should run and get some more blood. Just in case, okay? Christina: Keep applying pressure. I'm gonna go get Sloan. Lexie: Wait, you're leaving? Christina: I'll be right back. You can do this. You're doing this. ********* Sloan: Are you seeing this, Karev? How I'm tightening the cable by hand? Alex: Yeah. (They continue working. Sloan looks around. Sees Ava in the gallery.) Sloan: That's my face. Alex: What? Sloan: Up there in the gallery, I built that face. That's jane doe. The one with amnesia. Is she a surgeon? Alex: I don't, uh ... Sloan: Oh, you are ... you are so busted. Christina enters the OR doorway: Dr. Sloan, it's nick hanscomb. His carotid blew. Sloan: Karev, I need you to irrigate thoroughly, finish up and pack the wound. Alex: Wait, you're leaving? Sloan: He can survive without me. My other guy can't. Christina: Oh, there's no O.R. Available. Sloan: This one will be. (to Alex) I need you to get this room turned around asap. I'm bringing down my carotid bleed. ******* Waiting room; George (still in scrubs) runs in George: Tucker. Tucker: She's busy, right? She can't make lunch? George: No, she can. She can make lunch. Just a slightly later lunch. She's in surgery. Tucker: Always is. George: Yeah, it's just taking a little longer than she ex- Tucker: Always does. George: she's having a really bad day. She's saving the life of a white supremacist. This is not a good day. So she asked me to ask you if you wouldn't mind just waiting just a little while longer, please. She did say please ... which, as you may know, is not a word she uses that frequently, so ... she really is sorry. It ... this shouldn't be much longer. Tucker: Fine. But tell Miranda I said don't keep me waiting long. (bat) Please. George: Okay. (and he leaves) *** Waiting Room; Lucy (Jacob's daughter) is looking over the shoulder of her sister Mrs. Nolston: Lucy. (Lucy moves to her mother and sits down beside her) (Izzie and Hahn enter in the background. Izzie sees Jacob Nolston's family) Izzie: Uh, if it's all right with you, I'd like to update Mr. Nolston's family and meet you in the ambulance bay. (Hahn looks at her and walks away testily. Izzie follows her.) He's your patient. Don't you want me to keep the family informed? Hahn: I want you to think like a surgeon. You're thinking like a social worker, and if you want to be a social worker, you can save yourself a lot of effort, because the training is 2 years, not 12. But if you want to be a surgeon, you ca update the family when the crisis has passed. Izzie: You're right. Absolutely. I'm sorry. I, uh... ( she takes a breath and follows Hahn into the ambulance bay) ******** Mary's OR. Everyone is still waiting. Steve returns and a nurse helps him into a gown. Derek: Steve. Steve: Uh, yes, sir? Derek: Did you bring anybody with you? Steve: Uh, no. The nurses made an announcement, and I waited, but no one came. Derek: Rose? Rose: Damn. Damn it, damn it, damn it. Derek: Rose? Rose: I don't have the steadiest hand. I need to reconnect some wires, and I don't have the steadiest hand, and when you talk to me, it is less steady. Derek: So it's about the wires? Rose: I think so. I'm pretty sure. Derek: All right. I'll do it. Rose: What? Derek: I'll do it. You said yourself you don't have steady hands. Rose: Because I'm nervous. Derek: Yeah, no, I got that. Let me take care of the wires. I'm a neurosurgeon. I have steady hands. Rose: You're holding the leads in the patient's brain. Derek: Okay. Steve, how's your hand? Is it steady? Steve: Uh, yes, sir. Derek: Good. It better be or you'll kll my patient. Hold this very, very still. Steve: Yes, sir. (Steve is now holding the wires) Derek: Very still. Good. (he moves away to a nurse) Sterile sleeves, gloves, please. (to Rose) Tell me what I've got to do. ******* OR; Bailey is operating, George returns. Bailey: You talked to tucker? George: Yes. He says as long as you're out soon, he'll wait. Bailey: (looking at the patient) Oh, mother of ... the hepatic vein was injured. (to nurse) Uh, can you check for a new murmur? Nurse: Yeah, checking now. Bailey: O'Malley, I need you to go talk to tucker. Just ask him to wait a little longer. George: But I just scrubbed in. Bailey: O'Malley! Ask him. George: Yes, ma'am. (He leaves) (Bailey is unhappy about the situation. She looks at her patient and leans towards him.) Bailey: A person can only rise so high. Now I'm rising above, but there's a ceiling, and I'm about to ht it. (a monitor starts beeping in the background.) (to the nurse) Let me guess. Air embolus? (Nurse nods solomnly) (Bailey gives a heavy sigh and looks at her patient.) **** Ambulance Bay. Still alot of activity. Webber is preparing an IV while talking to Hahn and Izzie. Webber: We're about to start the pericardiocentesis. But with the position of his body, the blood won't be pooled to the base of the heart, so I... Hahn: I'd still use the subxiphoid rather than the parasternal. Webber: Right. Okay. Meredith, did you hear that? Meredith: Yeah. Is the kit ready yet? Webber: Yeah, I'm getting it ready for you now. Meredith: How you doing, Ray? (Ray doesn't look so good) Hahn (from a distance): Grey, you've got to be careful with this technique. If you aim the needle incorrectly, you could nick the very-thin-walled right atrium. Izzie (to Hahn): Which could cause a cardiac rupture. Hahn: A cardiac rupture, a tension pneumothorax basically there's about six different ways she could kll him. Ray (to Meredith): Are they talking about me? Meredith: No, don't listen to them, Ray. (to Hahn in a whisper) Dr. Hahn ... shut up. Hahn (to Ray): Sir, you're gonna be fine. (quietly to Izzie) Stevens, go get me an 18 gauge needle before this man's heart explodes in his chest. Izzie: Got it. (She leaves) *********** OR; Alex is trying to finish up on patient Jacob. He looks at the gallery and sees Ava and then back to his work. Callie: How you doing, Karev? Alex: Yeah, good. I'm fine. (bat) My nose itches. It itches like crazy. Callie: Yeah, that's the anxiety. You know you can't scratch it, so it itches. He squirts some water. Monitors start beeping. Callie: Whoa. What did you do? Everyone starts moving in a flurry of hands. Alex: Nothing. I was irrigating. Callie: All right, I need more suction. (to a nurse)Let's get some exposure here. Alex: It's coming from inside his chest. I think his heart's starting to bleed. (to a nurse) Hang a unit of blood. (to a nurse at the back of the room) Page Hahn and Sloan, now! Nurse: Right away (and she leaves) View of Ava in the gallery. View of the surgery from her point of view as they quickly try to control the bleeding. ****** Nick's Room; Lexie is still holding his neck. Two nurses and Tyler are setting out bandages. Christina is also there. Lexie: Tyler, could you get me more gauze, please? Yeah, sure. Nick: Why do you need more gauze? Because I'm bleeding? I'm ... I'm still bleeding? Lexie: Well, we have blood going in, too, Nick. Nick: Is it going in as fast as it's going out? I'm asking because I'm starting to feel, like, queasy ... and weak, maybe like a ... a person who's losing a lot of blood. Lexie: Okay, I'm transferring now, nick. You ready? Nick: Yeah. (Lexie picks up a pile of fresh bandages and puts it on top of his neck.) Nick: Lexie ... should I be calling people? Should I be calling my family or somebody? Lexie: I think ... I think the bleeding stopped. (in walks Sloan) Sloan: How you doing, Nick? Nick: Oh, Dr. Sloan. It's Dr. Sloan. Lexie: (obviously relieved that Sloan is here) I think the bleeding stopped. Sloan: (to Nick) You okay? - Nick: Do I ... do I look okay? Sloan: Actually, you do. Dr. Grey, looks like you got the bleeding under control. Lexie: Why would it stop? Christina: It could have been the herald bleed, which means, um, there's a possibility of it bleeding again. Sloan: But it won't, 'cause I'm gonna get it closed up before it does. Nick and Lexie: There's no O.R. Sloan: There will be in ten minutes. Dr. Grey, get a pressure dressing on this wound. Dr. Yang, get him prepped for transfer, and straight to O.R. Three. I'm gonna make sure it's cleared out. You did good work, Grey. Lexie (to Sloan as he leaves): Thank you. Nick (to Lexie): Hey. I'm in love with you now. I've forgotten entirely about my ex. (She smiles) ******* Ambulance Bay. Nurse is rushing out the doors as you hear a beeper going off. Pan to Hahn checking her pager. Hahn: Oh, come on. Are you kidding me? Webber: What? Hahn: Oh, I have a patient on the table who's . (she starts to rush off).. I gotta go. Webber: Erica ... Hahn: Uh, Stevens, page the cardio fellow, then book an O.R. Have it waiting when they get him free. (She rushes back inside.) (Izzie turns to Webber who motions her to do what Hahn asked.) **** Hall way outside waiting area. Tucker is in a chair reading. George stops about 15 feet away, not wanting to talk to him. Then walks up and stands in front of him. Tucker looks up. Tucker: Why am I not surprised? George: Dr. Bailey is very sorry. She's very, very sorry. Tucker: I'm outta here. George: She just asked me to ask you if you could wait just a ... a little while longer. She's almost done with the surgery. It took a ... it's just more complicated than she expected, but she is almost done. Tucker: Fine, I'll wait. But you tell her I am tired, tired of her choosing everything over me and our marriage. You tell her this is the last time. I'm finished. And you tell her the only reason I'm staying here is to tell her that myself. ********* OR 3; Monitors are beeping, Sloan walks back in. Sloan: What the hell did you do, Karev? Alex: Nothing. Uh, I cut the cable. The bleeding- Sloan: You cut the cable? What, you were showing off for your girlfriend? Do you have any idea how screwed you are? Callie: It's not his fault. One of the heart graft's blew. I'm holding this guy's left coronary with a clamp. Sloan: Did somebody page Hahn? Hahn: I'm here. What the hell happened? Callie: His heart graft blew. Hahn: Oh, damn it. Alex: I think.. Sloan: The only thing I need you to do, Karev, is to stay quiet and get more suction in here. Hahn: Just hold on to that. View of all the concerned people in the gallery. ******* OR. George returns to Bailey's surgery reluctantly. Bailey: O'Malley? George: Your husband is waiting. Bailey: Good. George: He's waiting and- Bailey: - I heard you. Why aren't you scrubbed in? I could use a hand. George (in a whisper): He, uh, he said something about you choosing ... everything over your marriage. Bailey: He said that? What else did he say? George: I think that was about it. Bailey: You think or you know? George: He ... he said that this was the last time and that he was finished. Bailey: I'm in surgery, O'Malley. Did you tell him that I'm trying to save a man's life here? George: Yes. Bailey: (her voice is starting to quaver) That I want to be there with him right now, but if I were to leave, this man would die, did you tell him that? George: Yeah, yes. Bailey: You need to go back out there and tell him that I took a vow ... a vow to save lives. And he might want to member that he also took a vow ... for better or for worse. You tell him that it's his job as a husband to understand that. You tell him that I'm standing by my vow, for better or for worse. You tell him I'm holding him to his vow. You tell him if he's thinking about leaving right now, that he might find himself hurt and wounded and needing an operation, and he may not get a surgeon who is as married to her vows as I am. You tell him that. (pause) George: Can't I just do some charts? Bailey: Go. (He leaves) ***** OR; Derek and Rose are working on the monitor. Derek: It's in. Rose: It's in? Derek: Wire's in. (to Steve) Steve, are you still? Rose: Yes, sir. Very still. (Derek turns back to Rose and waits.) Rose: Stop looking at me like I klled your patient. I am not a computer technician. I did my best. I gave it a sht. Derek: You didn't do your best. Rose: Yes, I did do my best. It was my best, damn it. Derek: Shh. Calm down. Take a deep breath and think. What did you miss? What are you forgetting? (she takes a deep breath and slowly leans over the machine to his side of the console and pushes a button. It beeps and starts whirring.) Derek: You forgot the restart button? Rose (she nods): I forgot to press the restart button. View of Mary's brain on the monitor: Derek: It's working. Rose: It's working. It's working (relieved) (everyone in the room claps) Derek: Santa cruz is not just a party school. (he turns to go back to Steve) Rose: Uh, Dr. Shepherd. Derek: Yes. Rose: Uh, sleeves. (she starts to adjust them for him) ****** Nick's Room; everyone is still there bandaging Nick Nick: This was never my plan, to ... to die this way. Lexie: You're not dying, nick. Christina: You're going to the O.R. Nick: No, I know. That's what I'm saying. I mean, I think we kind of have some say, or at least a feeling. But I never had that feeling, so I can't die, right? I don't feel good. I feel ... (monitor starts beeping as he passes out) Lexie: Nick Nick... Christina: Nick, can you squeeze my hand? Lexie: Oh, my god. What happened? Christina: The blood to the right side of his brain is ... he had a stroke. It looks like he had a stroke. Okay, let's go. Let's move him carefully. Let's go. (Lexie just stands there, in disbelief, tearing up.) Christina: You can't cry, lexie. This isn't over. You can't cry. (Lexie tries to hold back her tears as Nick is wheeled out leaving a large blood stain on the floor.) ****** Ambulance Bay; Webber is on his hands and knees out side the overturned ambulance. Webber: You need to find the xiphoid process. Can you feel it? Meredith: Got it. Webber: Okay, now go two finger breadths to the left of the xiphoid. Meredith: I'm there. Webber: Here. (He hands a very large needle over to Meredith) Ray: 18 gauge. Meredith: Yeah Ray: That is a very big needle. Meredith: I know. I'm sorry. Webber: You're going to angle the needle toward the left shoulder. Don't sab. You don't want to ht the ventricle, and you don't want to drop the lung. That wouldn't help matters either. Ray: I changed my mind. I want out. Meredith: This is gonna help you, Ray. I'm gonna go on three, okay? One, two- Ray: Wait. Tell ... tell stan's wife I'm sorry. T-tell sara I'm sorry about Stan. . Meredith: Tell her yourself. One, two ... Ray: wait. Wait. Meredith: We're running out of time. Ray: Just wait.. a minute. Meredith: Okay. Webber: What's taking so long? Meredith: He's not ready. Ray: I'm trying not to be scared. I don't wanna die scared. I wanna not be scared. Webber: Ray, listen to me. It's good to be scared. It means you still have something to lose. Ray: Yeah? (to Meredith)Are you scared? Meredith: All the time. Ray: Okay. That's good. Okay. I'm ready. But don't ... don't count. Just do it. Just do it so I don't know it's ... (she sab him and he gasps in pain) ***** OR Hahn: The infection went to his heart. His hack of a surgeon didn't check the grafts. I should've caught it. I should've checked. I missed it. Damn it. How did I miss it? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Sloan: That's fascinating, Dr. Hahn. Hahn: What? Sloan: You're as unkind to yourself as you are to everyone else. Callie: Sloan. (Christina comes in) Christina: Dr. Sloan, his artery blew again, and he appears to be having a left-sided C. V. A. Sloan: Where is he? - I ... Christina: Here. You told me to bring him here. (nurses and Lexie wheel Nick to the door but don't come in.) Sloan: Hahn, are you close? Hahn: No. Sloan: Yang, get him to a sterile procedure room. Run! Christina: Let's go. This way. Callie: Okay, I'm done. I can help. What do you want me to do? Sloan: I need an anesthesiologist, i need a nurse, I need equipment. Callie: I'm on it. (she starts out of the room) Uh, Karev, stay with Hahn. Hahn: This man has four children. He has four children. ******* Ambulance Bay; Meredith has the needle in Ray's chest. Meredith: I feel like I'm going in too far. Webber: Uh, pull back, pull back. Ray: Pull back, pull back. Meredith: Chief, what am I doing? Webber: You're too far in. There's some S. T. Elevation. Try angling more forward. Meredith: I got it. I got it. Ray? Ray: That feels good. I can almost breathe. Webber: Okay, he's almost sab. Get ready to cut him out. Meredith: All right. All right we're gonna get you outta here. We're getting you outta here right now. (Meredith moves out of the ambulance to let the firemen get into cut Ray loose. Webber looks at her and starts to guide her off to one side) Webber: oh, you're bleeding. Meredith: That's ray's blood. (the firemen are using equipment to get into the ambulance) Webber: Let me see that. You could use a couple of stitches. (He holds her arm while getting bandages) Now you stayed calm and focused and efficient in a very stressful situation. That's impressive. Meredith: I was scared. You did it anyway. Like I said ... impressive. (She looks at him gratefully as he finishes repositioning her glove. She leaves. Webber watches as Ray is pulled out of the ambulance.) ******** Nurses station. Izzie: Do not tell me that there isn't an O.R. Available. This is for the chief of surgery. There is a paramedic's life on the line. You need to find one now. Nurse: I'll see where we are. Mrs Nolston: Dr. Stevens? Thank god. How is he? Izzie: Um, I-I believe he's still in surgery, but I don't know. Mrs. Nolston: You don't know? Why ... w don't you ... you ... well, you said that you were gonna keep me informed and Izzie: ... I know. I'm sorry. I'm ... I'm on another case now. But I was gonna check back and ... Mrs. Nolston: You're on another case? Izzie: I'm sorry. Mrs. Nolston: Well, I-I-I have four kids here. I have four terrified children who think that their dad's gonna die any minute. Izzie: I, uh ... Mrs. Nolston: Did you have lousy instructors who didn't teach you how to be a good doctor, or just really bad parents who didn't teach you how to be a decent human being? (Izzie is dissappointed and at a loss for words.) Nurse: Stevens, O.R. Two is clearing out now. Izzie: Thank you. (she walks past Mrs. Nolston, sad) Mrs. Nolston (to the nurse at the station): Uh, my husband is Jacob Nolston, and he went into surgery hours ago. Could you please just find someone who can tell me whether he is dad or alive? ****** Waiting Room; Tucker and George Tucker: She said that? George: Look, if you could just wait a few more minutes, you guys could talk to each other because, you know, things get lost in translation, because, you know, this is clearly not a way to have what is obviously a very, very important conversation. Tucker: It is clearly not very important. Our marriage is falling apart, and she sends you to save it. (Tucker starts to walk out.) George: Tucker. (Tucker stops and turns.) She's in surgery. She's saving a life. She's literally saving a life, and she's gonna be here soon. Tucker: She's always saving a person's life. She'll always be here soon. You go ask her, when exactly is "soon" gonna come? (He walks away) ***** Hallway. A nurse walks by and we follow her to see Stan's wife Sara waiting. Meredith walks past her, exhausted. Sara: Excuse me. You're, um ... you're the one who came to get me, who told me about stan? Meredith: Yes. Sara: Is Ray, um ... Meredith: He's in surgery. Sara: Okay. I have to go. I have to get ... I have to get outta here, so ... look, can you tell him that, um ... that I'm sorry that I ... that I can't stay here? But I just ... I just can't come back here right now. Meredith: Ray wanted me to tell you that he's sorry, too. He's sorry he couldn't save stan. He wanted me to tell you that in case he didn't make it. Sara: You think he's not gonna make it? Meredith: I hope he makes it. But you won't be here, so ... Sara: My husband is dad. He's dad ... somewhere in this hospital. How am I supposed to ... to stay here? Meredith: I don't know. I don't know. But I know that if Ray makes it, he's gonna wake up, and he's gonna have no one. And you're gonna go home, and ... and you're gonna have ... Sara: no one. Meredith: I think it's better to have someone. Even if it hurts, even if it's the most painful thing you have to do, even if it's the most painful thing you've ever had to do, I think it's better to have someone. ***** OR Bailey: See this skin, O'Malley? It looks a little ... jagged. Does it look jagged to you? 'Cause if it is jagged, I'm going to have to reposition the incision so that it approximates more correctly. If I do that, this man's swastika tattoo might be unrecognizable. George: Yeah, it's a little jagged. Bailey: (quietly) I thought so, too. (pause) He left, right? George: Yes, he left. Bailey: 10-blade. ******* OR Monitor beeping. Izzie and Webber work on Ray. Webber: More lap pads, Stevens. Pack them all around the heart. suction. Come on, Ray.

Ray is in post-op with Webber checking him. Sara and Meredith come to the door. Sara: He looks bad. He ... he looks really bad. Webber: Well, his heart was severely damaged and his lungs were compromised. But he's young and strong, and our hope is that he'll be just fine. (Sara goes to Ray's beside) Sara (in a whisper): Ray. Ray. I'm here. (Ray's eyes open. Webber looks at Meredith) **** post-op, Shane's Room. Shane is looking at his abdomen. His swastick is now an "S". George is taking off his gloves after having checked the stitches. George: Well, your liver had more damage than we saw on the C.T. And then we found a perforation in your bowel. But we took care of it all, and you should have a full recovery. Shane: Well,(looking at his tatoo) not a FULL recovery. Dr. Bai ...(sigh) she did this on purpose, right? (he looks at George. pause.) George: I don't understand. Uh, you have a black partner, right? - Shane: Yeah? George: Mary? Shane: Yeah? (pause.) Do you know how she is? George (surprised): Oh, you ... are you two friends? Shane: Oh, look, I'm not the devil, okay? I'm just a guy with a belief system. Mary's a nice girl. We save lives together. That's a good time. Now if she wanted to marry my brother, I'd have a problem with that, but so would a lot of people. I'm not that much different than most of the people that you know. George (while applying bandaging to his incision): Well, Dr. Bailey did save your life today. A black woman saved your life at great personal cost. So maybe next time you're looking at your tattoo, and you're thinking how much better all us white guys are than everyone else, you think about that. Because between you and me, if i had been alone in that O.R. You'd probably be dad right now. (Shane looks at him surprised.) And, uh, since we're sharing belief systems, I believe, if you were dad, the world would be a better place. (he leaves.) ****** Nolston's Room. Nolston kids are asleep in chairs, beds. Alex is check his chart. Izzie walks in. Izzie: How's he doing? Oh, he's okay. The surgery was pretty hairy. He blew a graft when we were closing. But he's starting to rally. Izzie: Good. That's good. Hahn: What are you doing here? Izzie: I was just checking ... Hahn: We did just fine without your help. You mind? (Izzie leaves. Alex watches her go and then sees Ava in the hallway, waiting for him.) ** Hallway. Bailey is looking at the board hands to her lips. Christina comes around the corner and stops. Christina: You're not heading home? Just easier at this point to stay here till tucker's asleep. Christina: You know, I rose above, too, today. Yes, you did. Christina: You were having a hard day, you were busy rising above, but so was I, which is why I haven't said anything. But now the day is over, and I'm done. Bailey: (surprised) Excuse me? Christina: You know, what you did, pulling me off of Hahn's surgery, was an abuse of power. You know, you needed help? Okay. But you used me because of the color of my skin. I mean, you compromised the quality of my education because of my color. I resent it. (she walks off. Bailey is looks up at the ceiling like she is trying to handle one more thing.) ** Scrub Room. Derek and Rose watch Mary being wheeled out of OR as the scrub out. Rose: You saved her life. No, I fixed her brain, restored her motor skills and did a highly stressful, extremely difficult procedure. But, no, no, you saved her life. (He turns to her. She smiles. They kiss several times. ) Rose: Okay. Thanks. That was ... okay. Your voice is shaking. Rose: I'm an imperfect person. (She walks away. Derek looks after her, then turns back. Then leaves.) ******* Nick's OR. Someone is mopping the blood from the floor. Tyler is covering Nick's head with a sheet. Lexie is sitting in a chair next to him. Lexie: Are his parents coming? Tyler: They're on a plane from california. You gonna wait? Lexie: Yeah, I'm gonna wait. ********* City skyline at night. Meredith in the hallway walks up to Derek. Meredith: I don't want you to date other people. It may not be enough for you, but I'm trying here. So I don't want you to date anybody but me. That's it. (He looks at her.) Except ... I'm scared as hell to want you. But here I am, wanting you anyway. And fear means I have something to lose, right? And I don't want to lose you. (Pause.) Derek: Meredith ... Meredith: Don't. Don't say anything. I'm gonna leave, and you can say something tomorrow. That's progress, right? (Derek nods. She backs away from him and leaves.) ***** Alex's bedroom. Alex throws his shirt on the bed and turns to Ava, pulls her in for a kiss. Ava: Are you ... are you ... are you really okay? Alex: Yeah. (he kisses her again) Ava: Alex, come on. Ava: That was intense ... intense and crazy and just awful. H-how can you be okay after a day like that? Alex just pulls her back to him and kisses him again. Ava: (pushing him away.) Alex. Alex. Why won't you talk to me? Alex: What do you want me to talk about, rebecca? How a guy almost bled out while I watched, or how I got suspended for a week 'cause you were there? Ava: Ava. It's Ava, not Rebecca. Alex: Right. You're playing dress up.You're here playing dress up. You have a husband, rebecca. You have a baby, and I have a life. That girl you were talking to earlier today when you were playing med student? I'm screwing her. And she might be a bigger wreck than I am, but at least she's not married, at least she's not gonna get me suspended, at least she's she's not trying to pretend to be somebody she's not. Ava: Alex ... Alex: No, you gotta ask yourself what you're doing here. 'Cause I think if you could get honest, if you could just tell the damn truth for one minute, I think you have to admit you're not here to talk. (They start kissing again.) ******* OR where Lexie is stilling with Nick's body. Christina walks in. Christina: You did a good job today, and it was not easy. What you did was not easy. It was brave. Lexie: We klled him. The hospital ... Sloan, us ... we were not prepared. Christina: Yeah, that happens sometimes. Lexie: That's ... do you have any idea how backwards that is? Christina: We help more than we hurt. (Lexie doesn't take comfort in this. pause.) Lexie (looking at Nick): I have no one. (Christina looks at her. View of them through the OR window.) ******* Lounge. Sloan is standing staring into space. Callie is on the couch looking at him. They both are still in scrubs, looking bat. She sits on the couch next to Callie and folds her arms. pause.) Hahn: This is gonna sound bizarre. I realize at this point that this is gonna sound bizarre, but ... any chance you people want to get a drink with me? Sloan: Why would we want to do that? Callie: She's saying she needs a friend. Sloan: Okay. Fine. Let's drink. Hahn: You won't ht on me? Sloan: I can't promise that. Hahn: If I say please? Callie: He still can't promise that. (Hahn looks at Sloan. Sloan stares back. Hahn thinks.) Hahn: Fine. (She leaves. Sloan and Callie follow her.) ******** Meredith's living room. Meredith is sitting on the couch. Christina walks in and puts a bag on a chair.

MVO: Some days, the whole world seems upside down. Christina: She's got no one. (Meredith looks at her. Lexie awkardly offers up her bag of apples. Christina takes off her jacket and then looks at Meredith for approval. Meredith thinks, and then sighs, and sits up.) Meredith: I'm drinking. Are you drinking, Lexie? Lexie (relieved): Yeah, a drink would be good. (Meredith looks at her, then at Christina.) *** Izzie's room. She is lying on the bed in her scrubs. There is a knock at the door. She looks as George walks in. He lies down next to her. George: Hey. Izzie: I was Hahn's right hand today. George: That's ... that's good, right? That's great. Izzie: I think a patient feels better if they know their kids aren't terrified. I think they're more likely to pull through surgery if they know that their wives are not panicked. I think those things matter. George: Well, they do matter. Izzie: I'm never gonna be Cristina. It's just not gonna happen. And I am never gonna be Erica Hahn. I am not ... kick-ass. George: Thank god for that. (She looks at him, thankful. Then away. pause.) Izzie: I love you. George: I love you. Izzie: We're not gonna make this work, are we? George (is a bit taken aback): Marriage is hard. I mean, even when it's right ... it's hard, and ... next time I do it, I just want it to be forever. And I don't ... I don't think it's our chemistry. I think it's our timing. But I don't think it's our chemistry. Izzie: So we're saying maybe someday? George (he kisses her sholder): Yeah, yeah, we're saying maybe someday. ***** View fades in to Meredith and Christina dancing in slow motion in the living room. Which extends to show Lexie dancing too. Izzie and George enter the living room. They turn to go when Meredith sees them. Meredith: Come on, Izzie. Dance party. Izzie: (to George) You want to dance? George: I will if, uh, you want me to. They join in the dancing, which turns slow motion again. MVO And then somehow, improbably and when you least expect it, the world rights itself again.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x10 - Crash Into Me Pt. 2"}	foreverdreaming
Credit & Thanks to ~ Vibrant Fields ~ Views of natural beauty, a stream, animals. Bailey Voice Over: In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. At least, that's what they say. He created the birds of the air and the beasts of the fields and he looked at his creation and he saw that it was good. And then God created man. And it's been downhill ever since. (See Sloan and Derek walking along a country path) Sloan: The woman loves me. Derek: Erica Hahn? Sloan: I'm telling you. We went out last night, had a couple drinks. Derek: You and Erica? Sloan: Just me and Hahn. (pause) And Callie. All right, so it wasn't a date. (pause) You're gonna tell me where we're going? Derek: Why does it always have to be about the destination? Why can't it be about the journey? Sloan: 'Cause I'm wearing $300 shoes. Derek: Meredith told me she doesn't want me seeing other people. Sloan: She found out about you and Rose? Derek: No. There's nothing to find out. It was just a kiss. Sloan: Yeah, but you're not the kind of guy who makes out with nurses in scrub rooMs. Not that there's anything wrong with that. ( they come out into a clearing) Derek: What do you think? Sloan: It was more than just a kiss. Derek: The view. ( It is a hilltop with an amazing view overlooking the surrounding valley.) Sloan: Well, what am I looking at? Derek: The view from my new house. ******** Meredith's kitchen: Derek is smoothing out house blue prints on the table. Meredith is cracking eggs. Bailey Voice Over: The story goes on to say that God created man in his own image, but there's not much proof of that. After all, God made the sun and the moon and the stars, and all man makes is trouble ... Derek: It's a classic Victorian design with an open floor plan. What are you doing? Meredith: I'm making an omelet. Derek: What do you think of the house? Meredith: The house? I think the house is great. Derek: If you don't like, you can tell me. It's your house, too. (Meredith drops an egg on the floor) Meredith: Damn. Derek: So why are you cooking again? Meredith: Lexie was having a bad night, and I thought I would do something semi-sisterly. Derek: Really? Meredith: Really. **** Izzie's bedroom. Izzie is still under the covers. George is at the door. George: Are you getting up? Izzie: No. Maybe. I don't know. (pause) What's that smell? George: Someone's cooking. Izzie: That's not cooking. That ... That's not cooking. George: You're gonna be late. You know that? Izzie: I hate work. George: Since when? Izzie: Since I hate it. I hate Cristina. I hate Hahn. I hate it. ****** Another Bedroom. Lexie is walking up. ? is on the floor. Lexie: Oh, what is that smell? ?: That smells like sulfur. Meredith (distant from the kitchen): Breakfast! Lexie: It's breakfast. (she heads for the door, but ? grabs her to stops her) ? Don't go! Don't go. Lexie: I have to go. She made breakfast. I'm going. Now stop. Off. ?: Aah (he gasps as the door is opened) Living room. Lexie stops as Alex comes down the stairs Lexie: Where's your girlfriend? Alex: Back with her husband, I'm guessing. And I don't have a girlfriend. Lexie: Or a conscience, apparently. Alex: Yeah, but you knew that going in. (she follows him into the kitchen.) *** Kitchen. Meredith is putting a plate in front of Derek. Lexie and Alex walk in. Derek: I'm not saying we have to build it now, but we have to plan it now. Alex: Dude, what the hell is that? Derek: Meredith cooked. She wanted to do something nice for Lexie. Lexie: You cooked for me? Meredith: It's no big deal. Just ... eggs and avocado and whatever cheese that was in the fridge. Lexie: Oh, I love, um, avocados. (Alex is having juice, watching Lexie try a bite) Meredith: Is it okay? Lexie: (nodding) mm-hmmm. Meredith leaves. Lexie turns to Derek and shakes her head. Derek puts down his fork. ******* Bailey's Kitchen. Tucker carries a load of laundry to the table. Bailey carries Tuck to his seat. Bailey: (to Tuck) Okay, honey. (to Tucker) This little man has been fed and changed. There we go. I put the building manager's number on my desk. Do not believe him when he tells you that he can fix the sink. Remind him he is the one that broke it when he tried to fix the pipes. (Bailey stops to look at him. He is ignoring her, folding laundry. She starts to gather up her things for work.) Tucker: Miranda. Bailey: You're talking to me now? Now that I'm my way out the door? Tucker: You're always on your way out the door. Are you interested in being a part of this family or not? Bailey: OK, I can't do this, uh, now. I don't have time. ******** Elevator at the hospital. Hahn is in the elevator when Callie enters. Hahn: Dr. Torres. Callie: Dr. Hahn, anyone who can outdrink me and still kick my ass at the dartboard gets to call me Callie. Hahn: Last night was actually fun, wasn't it? And I'm not a group person. Callie: Me neither. Hahn: I think it's because I generally don't like people. Callie: Me neither. (They are all smiles. The door opens and there is Sloan) Sloan: Morning, ladies. (They look at each other and laugh) Hahn: Case in point. (They laugh harder as they exit the elevator, walking past a bewildered Sloan) Sloan (calling after them): What's so funny? *** Hallway stairs. Derek is coming down them to the Nurses station, where Rose is. BVO: And when man finds himself in trouble, which is most of the time, he turns to something bigger than himself to love or fate or religion to make sense of it all. (she offers him candy) Rose: Sweet tart? (He takes it from her.) Derek: Do you ever eat anything that even remotely resembles real food? Rose: You'll have to take me to dinner to find out. Derek: I can't do that. That, uh, kiss was ... unexpected. I like kissing you. I enjoyed kissing you, but ... I'm seeing somebody. Rose: Meredith Grey. (in a whisper) Everybody knows about you and Meredith Grey. Derek: I have to see it through. I'm sorry. Rose: Don't be. It was just a kiss. See you in surgery, Dr. Shepherd. (she takes her candy back and walks off.) BVO: But for a surgeon, the only thing that makes any kind of sense is ... ** Chart corner. Christina is searching through charts and pulls out the one she wants. BVO: Medicine. (Christina turns and sees Izzie coming towards her.) Christina: Back off. Elizabeth Archer is my patient. Izzie: Technically, she's Hahn's patient, but whatever. (She walks past Christina and begins pulling charts.) Christina: Um, I'm scrubbing in on a major coronary artery dissection with Hahn, and what, you're not gonna fight me for it? Izzie: I'm not doing the cardio thing anymore. I am over it. Christina: You're over it? Whoa, why? What do you have? Izzie: Nothing. I'm charting. (and she starts to walk off as Hahn approaches) Hahn: Stevens, Elizabeth Archer's chart. Izzie: Yang has it. You two have fun. (and she leaves. Christina approaches her) Christina: She's not a cardiothoracic surgeon, but I could've told you that. I am the rock star. Hahn: (She looks at Christina a moment. Then looks down the hall.) Karev, are you a rock star? Alex: Always. Hahn: You're with me today. Congratulations. Your life just got more interesting. (Hahn turns to go. Christina is dumbfounded and follows her.) Christina; Karev doesn't know anything about Elizabeth Archer. Hahn: You can read, can't you, Dr. Karev? Alex: Uh, yes. Elizabeth Archer, 49, came into the ER yesterday complaining of severe ... Christina: An urgent cardiac cath demonstrated dissection of the proximal two-thirds of the LAD. She was admitted last night for observation. (Hahn is still walking towards the patient's room, smiling at how ludicrous Christina is in her persistance.) Hahn: While I admire your preparation, Dr. Yang, there is one thing about the patient you failed to notice. (she opens the patient door to an empty bed.) She's gone. **** Waiting room. Callie is putting on her lab coat when a delighted Mrs. O'Malley spots her. Mrs. O'Malley: Callie! Callie: (surprised) Mrs. O'Malley, hi. How have you been? Mrs. O'Malley: Well, I've been worried is how I've been. I've called, and I left messages. I know how busy you two are, but you can't pick up the phone once in a while? Never mind. Water under the bridge. I was in the neighborhood, and I hope you don't mind, but I just couldn't wait to show you some of the outfits I've been making. Callie: Outfits? Mrs. O'Malley: Now don't get mad, but Georgie told me you were trying, so ... What do you think? (she pulls out a hand-crochetted onesie) It's yellow. Callie: (Doing her best to keep smiling) I see that. ****** computer lab. Bailey is looking at a monitor when Lexie enters. Lexie: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Whatever it is, I don't have time. (Bailey's phone starts to ring) Lexie: Uh, I think I need some epinephrine? Bailey: Tucker, now's not a good time for ... Lexie: Epinephrine? Bailey: (to Lexie) The cart's around the corner. (To Nurse) Can you give her the ... ( Tucker on the phone) No, I told you, I put it on my desk. (an alarm sounds from the hallway and "code blue" can be heard over the loudspeaker system) Bailey: Uh, I have to call you back. (she hangs up and rushes down the hall into a patient's room with a nurse.) (A female patient is laying her hands gently on a man who's monitors are beeping.) Bailey: You're gonna have to step back from the patient, Ma'am. (the woman, Elizabeth, ignores her) Ma'am? Elizabeth: Just one second. (she continues to move her hand over the man's heart.) (Christina in the hallway notices and walks in) Christina: Ms. Archer? What is she doing here? Bailey: I have no idea. Who is she? Christina:She's Hahn's patient. Ms. Archer, you need to get back to your bed. (The monitor stops beeping and the man looks better.) Elizabeth: There. Bailey: What'd you do to him? He was in V-tach and now ... Elizabeth: I healed him. I'm a healer. (Elizabeth passes out. Christina catches her.) ********* Elizabeth's Room. Bailey, Hahn, Christina and Alex are all there. Bailey: You're a faith healer? Elizabeth: I'm a healer, and I have faith, but I'm not sure the two are related. Hahn: Ms. Archer, you collapsed. You could go into cardiac arrest at any moment. So I'm less interested in what you do for a living than I am with getting you ... Bailey: Wait. I wanna know what she did to Mr. Greenwald. He's been in and out of V-tach all day, and now he's sab. Hahn: Maybe because of the Amiodarone he got two hours ago. Elizabeth: Really? Does Amiodarone usually take two hours to kick in? Hahn: Ms. Archer, you have a coronary artery dissection. Dr. Karev and I need to get you into surgery as soon as possible. Elizabeth: I appreciate that Dr. Hahn, but I am not going into surgery until we've exhausted all the other possibilities. Hahn: Ms. Archer, if you don't have the surgery soon, I can guarantee you that the blood supply to your heart will be cut off, and I'll have to open you up anyway. Elizabeth: All I'm asking for is that you give me some time and talk me through the surgery that you'd like to perform so that I may visualize it while I do what I do. And if it doesn't work, then you can slice me open, okay? Dr. Karev can work with you doing whatever it is that you do. I'll check in soon. (quietly to Alex as she leaves) Call me when she codes. ******* George is walking down the hall and turns the corner and sees Lexie at the med cart. George: Hey, what are you looking for? Lexie: Epinephrine. I need epinephrine. George: Why? (she turns and he sees her face has a rash) What happened to you? Lexie: I'm an adult child of an alcoholic is what happened to me. I have boundary issues. So when Meredith made me eggs this morning, I couldn't not eat them. I had to pretend I wasn't allergic to eggs. Now I have a rash covering my entire body. George: Give me your arm. Lexie: I'm codependent, my throat is closing up ... oww, and now my arm hurts. Thanks. George: You're welcome. Lexie: And thank you for letting me crash on your couch last night. (Callie walks up behind him holding baby clothes.) Callie (exasperated): You didn't tell your mom we broke up? George: What? Callie: Your mom's making us baby clothes 'cause she thinks we're trying to get pregnant because she thinks we're still married because she thinks that you're still the kind of person who would never cheat on his wife. Hand-stitched unisex baby clothes. They're yellow and green and go up to toddler sizes. And she's waiting for you in the lobby. (she hands him the clothes and walks off.) ***** Hallway. Derek catches up with Meredith. Derek: So you never really told me what you thought of the house. Meredith: I have a house. Derek: That's your house. I'm talking about our house. Meredith: Between yesterday and today you had plans drawn up? Derek: I've had the plans for months. Between yesterday and today, I decided to share them with you. Meredith: Why? Derek: So nothing's really changed? Meredith: Everything's the same as it was. It's just ... It's really a lot, and it's fast. Derek: I'm just trying to take a step forward. Meredith: Okay, well, there are about 100 steps between where we are right now and building our dream house. And they'll be fun steps and sexy steps, and we'll try not to fall down them together. Derek: (He kisses her) Okay. ******* Flight of Stairs. Bailey is walking up, her phone is ringing. She checks it. Webber catches up to her on the stairs. Webber: Dr. Bailey. Bailey: Uh, s ... Chief. Webber: Yeah, rumor has it Dr. Hahn has a patient who's wandering the halls? Bailey: She's back in her bed, sir. Webber: And laying hands on other patients? Bailey: It was just one patient. Webber: And healing them? Bailey: For which there is a perfectly reasonable medical explanation. (her phone starts to ring again.) Webber: Of course there is, but I can't have a hospital full of sick people thinking there's a miracle woman on the cardiac ward. Creates panic and hysteria, and frankly, it's bad for business. Are you gonna answer that? Bailey: No, sir, I'm not. Webber: Are you gonna make sure this woman keeps her hands to herself? Bailey: Yes sir, I am. Webber: Thank you, Dr. Bailey. (He leaves. She answers her phone but the other person had hung up.) ** Nurses station: Hahn and Alex are looking at charts. She looks up and is peeved. Hahn: Dr. Sloan, why are you endangering the life of my patient? (Sloan is wheeling Elizabeth towards her.) Sloan: Because your patient had her hands all over one of my patients. Elizabeth: She had a staph infection. I was trying to heal her. Hahn: Don't worry your pretty little head about it, Sloan. (to Alex) Karev ... Sloan: Have you noticed that even when you're insulting me, you manage to tell me how pretty I am? Hahn: It wasn't meant as a compliment. Sloan: Is this like a gender reversal thing with you, where you're the big man on campus and I'm the hot blond whose ponytail you can't stop pulling? Hahn: Why don't you get that I just don't like you, that I think you are a crass, predatory ape of man who just happens to be a decent surgeon? Sloan (to Elizabeth): You want to heal someone? Heal her. Elizabeth: This is really toxic in here. Could somebody take me back to my room? 'Cause my healing team should be arriving soon. Alex: I'll take you. *** Waiting Room. Izzie comes down the stairs and sees Mrs. O'Malley. Izzie: Mrs. O'Malley! Mrs. O'Malley: There she is. Come here. Izzie: What are you doing here? Does George know you're here? Mrs. O'Malley: Callie said she'd find him for me. How are you, dear? You okay? Izzie: You talked to Callie? Mrs. O'Malley: Poor thing. It's gotta be hard for her, you know? I mean, you try and you try, but we're all human. Nobody's perfect. And in the end, it's nobody's fault. Izzie: I'm so happy to hear you say that. I have just felt so terrible about it. Mrs. O'Malley: I know. Me, too. Izzie: You know, we just ... We didn't mean for it to happen. I know how that sounds, but it's true. We were ... We were drunk, and it only happened the one time. I know that doesn't make it right. But you have to believe me, it was never my intention to break up George's marriage. I didn't know I was in love with him. George was so distraught about it. I think that's why he failed the intern test. Mrs. O'Malley: What? He failed? Izzie: He didn't tell you that part? Mrs. O'Malley: (she is becoming upset.)He didn't tell me any part. Izzie: But you said you talked to Callie. Mrs. O'Malley: About baby clothes. I thought she was having trouble getting pregnant. I made baby clothes. Izzie (mortified): Oh, Oh, no. George: Mom. (she turns and just stares at him.) What? Izzie: (backing away) I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ******** Hallway. Bailey's phone is ringing again and she is in a hurry. Bailey: Hey, I know I said I'd call you right back ... Tucker, wait, I can't do this right now. I'm being paged to the ER. What do you mean, you're the one paging me? I told you never to page me at the hospital unless ... (She has entered the ER and sees Tucker on the phone next to a crying baby on a gurney. She is stunned as he puts down his phone.) Tucker: There was an accident. ****** ER. Tuck is crying surrounded by doctors. Derek: All four limbs are moving. Pupils are responsive and dilating. There's no neurological damage. (He moves out of the way.) Webber: Let's get him on a monitor and where's the X-ray for the trauma series? Order a left forearm with the X-rays. Callie: There's bruising and swelling here. Bailey: Mama's right here, little man. I'm right here. Webber: (to Tucker) He was under a bookshelf? Tucker: The whole thing must have fallen over on top of him. And all those medical books ... He probably tried to climb up and pulled it over. I heard him screaming and I found him. Bailey: Tucker, I'm trying to hear. Stop talking. Webber: Miranda, let me do that. Bailey: No, I got it. I got it. Webber: Miranda. Bailey: What? (Webber pulls her away from Tuck) (She turns and addresses Tucker) Bailey: This is why we put the baby gate in the living room. Tucker (very upset): The gate was open. Bailey: You left the gate open? Tucker: No, I didn't. Bailey: What? Are you trying to say I left the gate open? Webber: Accidents happen. Bailey: Not if you take the time to bolt the bookshelves to the wall. Tucker: I can't baby-proof every inch of that apartment and watch him at the same time. Bailey: You weren't watching him, otherwise we wouldn't be here right now. Webber: He's got decreased breath sounds on the left side, and his abdomen's rigid. Tucker: What does all this mean? Webber: There may be some internal injuries. Tucker: What kind of injuries? Bailey: We don't have time for questions. He needs a full trauma workup. Clear a CT and get me an ultrasound machine. ******** Waiting Room Mrs. O'Malley: This is not okay, Georgie. This is not okay. George: Ah, you're right. Mrs. O'Malley: You're planning to what? You're planning to marry Izzie now? You're planning an annulment? George: This is not about Izzie. Mrs. O'Malley: What the hell is it about? Because this isn't okay. This isn't okay with me. I raised you better than this. George: It's about the fact that I never should've gotten married in the first place. Mrs. O'Malley: (she's in tears) But you did. You got married. You didn't invite me. You didn't let me plan a wedding, and I accepted that. I accepted it because you were happy, and that's all that mattered, but this ... I won't accept this. I don't accept this. George: Mom. Mrs. O'Malley: We're catholic. We don't believe in divorce. And we certainly don't believe in adultery. George: I'm sorry. Mrs. O'Malley: Well, don't be sorry to me. Be sorry to father Mike. You call him, he'll hear your confession and he'll get you and Callie into counseling. George: It's too late for that. Mrs. O'Malley: It is not too late. You made a vow to Callie and a vow to God. You just don't walk away from that. This is your soul we're talking about. George: I have to go. (He walks past her to the ER) Mrs. O'Malley: No, you will not. You won't walk away from me, George O'Malley. George: (He turns briefly) It's Dr. Bailey. I have to go. ***** Hallway. Everyone is standing outside Tuck's room. George rushes in. George: What happened? Izzie: He got crushed under a bookshelf. Christina: Multiple rib fractures. Alex: Might've dropped a lung. Meredith: They're worried there may be damage to the heart. Webber: Yang and Stevens, get him to radiology for a head, chest and abdominal CT. O'Malley, tell the lab to move fast. Karev, clear out. We'll keep you posted. (to Meredith) I want you to stay with Dr. Bailey. She's pretty worked up, I want to make sure that doesn't get in the way of the baby's care. Bailey: (as she walks away down the hall) I don't need a babysitter. Webber: (without looing at her) I know you don't. (to Meredith) You stay with her. ****** Elizabeth's room. 2 friends are with her. Mai is standing by her bed, has her eyes closed, and is performing healing on Elizabeth. Alex walks in. Alex: I'm sorry about that. Uh, there was an emergency. Dr. Karev, this is Don and Mai. Alex: Nice to meet you. Mai: (She doesn't look up at him)He's a skeptic. He shouldn't be here. Elizabeth: Is Dr. Hahn coming? Alex: Dr. Hahn's been called into an emergency surgery so she asked me to talk you through the procedure. Elizabeth: Is she gonna be long? Alex: I'm hoping she's done before your heart blows, but I can't make any promises. Mai: I told you he shouldn't be here. Elizabeth: I need someone who knows what they're doing to talk me through the surgery. Alex: This ... This, it's crap.You're stalling. You're scared. Elizabeth: Of course I'm scared. Surgery is ... It's barbaric. You tear flesh and spill blood. I work with light. I work with energy. I visualize healing. If there's even the slightest chance that what I do works, isn't that preferable? Alex: I don't believe in what you do. Elizabeth: Well, I'm not asking you to. I'm asking you to help me to do it. *** CT Computer Room. Christina, Meredith, Izzie. Meredith: Can you imagine how horrible this is for her? Christina: This is why people should not have kids. Izzie: What's the matter with you? That's Bailey's baby in there. Christina: No, see, no. It's a trauma case. If we are gonna be at all effective in saving that kid's life, it can't be Bailey's baby. He's a blunt trauma case. Izzie: You and Hahn are exactly alike. The two of you deserve each other. Christina: Thank you. Meredith: I thought you loved cardio. Christina: Oh, no, no. She's pretending not to anymore. Can't take the pressure, huh, Iz? Izzie: You're right, Cristina. In the contest to see who can be the best robot, you win. (Christina does some robot moves and sounds. Izzie turns and looks down on the CT scanning) ****** CT Room. Bailey is moving the machinery. Tucker is standing by. Bailey: Tell me again how this happened. Tucker: You didn't understand the first time? Bailey: Just tell me again. Tucker: Somebody left the baby gate open. Bailey: Somebody. And you ... You're saying you think I did this? Tucker: I'm saying that you were in such a hurry to get out the house this morning, that you were in such a hurry to get to work and ... And get away from me ... Bailey: This doesn't have anything to do ... Tucker: (He raises his voice) Why do you think he even went into that room? You the only one ever goes in there. He went looking for his mama. He went looking for his mama and wound up in the hospital. (They look at each other. ) Bailey: Guess you made a bad choice, huh, Tucker? You picked a bad wife, she made a bad mother, she made you stay home, raise your son, and then she almost klled him. Poor you, huh? ****** Nursing Station. Derek is charting. Rose sees him and approaches him. Rose: I heard about Dr. Bailey's son. How bad is it? Derek: (without looking up )We're still waiting on his studies. Rose: Derek? Remember before when I was unbelievably cool and let you off the hook for making out with me? (George starts to come around the corner, but on hearing this ducks back out of sight) Well, now I'm angry. Derek: Why? Rose: Because you're not making eye contact with me. We are standing here talking about Bailey's baby, and you won't ..Look at me. Derek: (takes a breath and looks up.) Sorry. Rose: Better. Now it was one kiss, okay? It was a good kiss, maybe even a great one but are we gonna let one maybe-great kiss get in the way of what, up until now, has been a great professional relationship even though you didn't know my name until recently? Derek: No, we are not. Rose: So ... Friends? (she holds out her hand) Derek: (he takes her hand and shakes it.) Friends. Rose: Good. **** Diagnosis room. Everyone is standing around looking at the CT scans. Meredith: Bailey wants to know if Tuck's films are ready. (she sees the scan on the light window. Is that ... ? What's that shadow? Where's his heart? Izzie: You can't see it because ... George: His stomach's in his chest. Christina: There's visceral herniation, a positive collar sign. Bailey: (from the doorway) Which indicates a diaphragmatic hernia. It's a ruptured diaphragm, (she walks to the films and starts pointing out issues) which ... is the least of his problems, 'cause the force of the trauma injured his thoracic aorta. You see this, in the chest cavity next to the stomach? That's colon. And around the colon is fluid, which could mean the colon is ruptured and there's fecal matter floating around that could infect the aortic repair, and that ... Complication can be fatal. (Everyone is silent.) Bailey: What are y'all standing around for? Page Hahn and the chief. Book an OR. (they leave. She is left alone.) **** Hallway outside the OR. Meredith and Bailey are in scrubs. Meredith: Okay, they repaired the hole in the diaphragm, and Dr. Hahn is just about to inspect the mediastinum. Bailey: Okay, is she gonna repair with sutures or prosthetic graft? Meredith: Don't know. Bailey (distressed): Don't know? Meredith: She didn't say. Bailey moves past her to enter the OR. Meredith tries to stop her. Hahn looks up as Bailey enters Hahn: Dr. Bailey? Are you kidding? Bailey: I need to be with my son. Webber: Miranda.. Bailey: I have no intention of getting in the way. Just ... I can't stand out there. I can't. I need to be with my son. Hahn: And what we need, Dr. Bailey, is to not have our patient's mother watching us perform his surgery. Dr. Grey, please escort Dr. Bailey back outside. Bailey: No. There will be no escorting of Dr. Bailey anywhere, Dr. Grey. (To Hahn) You can proceed. Hahn (stone cold): I will not proceed until you leave this OR. Now do you want me to stand here talking to you, or do you want me to try and save your baby's life? (pause) Webber: Miranda! Bailey: I just want to hold my son's hand. I just want to hold his hand. Please. Christina: I'll hold his hand. (to Hahn) Dr. Grey can hold this retractor, right? (Hahn looks at Lexie next to her) Hahn: Yes. Christina: (walking to Bailey) I'll hold Tuck's hand, Dr. Bailey, if it's ... If it's okay with you. I'll hold his hand. (pause as she is torn) Bailey: Okay, go, go. (she leaves and everyone returns to surgery) Webber: Everybody, let's get back to work. **** Waiting room. Mrs. O'Malley is sitting. Callie comes up behind her. Callie: Mrs. O'Malley. What are you ... Mrs. O'Malley: I couldn't leave. When harold was here, when he was sick, Dr. Bailey took such a good care of him. I couldn't leave knowing her son was in trouble. Knowing both our sons are in trouble. Callie: (sighs and sits down) Mrs. O'Malley, I just ... Mrs. O'Malley: I know you think I'm old-fashioned, and maybe I am. But it doesn't matter what I think. In God's eyes, marriage is forever. Callie: Well, if it's any consolation, George and I got married on the Vegas Strip at a 24-hour church of Elvis. I'm not sure God was even there. Mrs. O'Malley: He's everywhere. Callie: I used to believe in God ... and mariage ... And heaven and hell. Mrs. O'Malley: But you don't anymore? Callie: I believe in love ... and second chances ... And that even though George wasn't the one for me, it was okay that I believed that he was because ... (near tears) Well, for a little while, at least ... I got to be an O'Malley. (Mrs. O'Malley takes her hand) And I really loved being an O'Malley. ****** Elizabeths Room. Mai is standing with her eyes closed. In the background. Alex comes to the doorway and stops silently. Mai: (resigned) He's back. Alex: I'm sorry to interrupt, but your ... most recent echo shows the dissection is extending. You need to let me prep you for surgery. Elizabeth: Oh. No, not yet. We haven't finished our work. Alex: You're gonna die. Elizabeth: Do you know how Mai knew you were back, even with her eyes closed? Alex: She heard me? Elizabeth: She felt you. It's like a pull, like a darkness. Alex: Right, right. I'm the angel of death. Got it. Elizabeth: No. You're not the angel of death, Dr. Karev. You're actually a very sweet boy. He's got a beautiful heart, wouldn't you say, Mai? I would, but his gut and his throat ... Elizabeth: They're blocked. Second chakra's worse. Alex: Seriously? You're talking about chakra? Elizabeth: We're talking about how you've got a darkness at your throat chakra, where your voice should be because whatever happened to you was so ... So ugly and went on for so long that ... you don't talk about it. You were hurt so badly that sometimes you want to hurt other people just to ... Just to spread it around. You were a good boy, Dr. Karev. A good, sweet boy, but you're not a very good man. What happened to you? Alex: (He's not sure how to take this, but continues on) Your artery is shredding. You need surgery. I'm not a very good man, but I do tell the truth. And the truth is, if you don't get this surgery fast, you're gonna die. ******* Bailey's Office. Derek sees Bailey through her office door. She is head in her hands whispering to herself. He enters and sits next to her. Bailey (quietly): I left it on the desk, I went through the office door, and I closed the gate. I walked from the bedroom to the office. I wrote a note to the building manager. I left it on the desk. I was in a hurry so I looked at the clock and I walked out of the door. I... The gate... Derek: This isn't helping. Bailey (agitated): It was open. Did I close the gate? Damn it.. Derek: This isn't helping. Bailey: I walked out of the bedroom into the office, and I wrote a note ... Derek: This isn't helping. Stop this. Bailey: (in tears) I can't remember. I can't remember if I closed that gate. That's my baby. I can't remember if I closed it. Derek: It doesn't matter. Bailey: It does matter! It matters because I'm his mother, I can't have done this to him. I can't have hurt him so badly. Derek: You didn't do this. Things just happen. Bailey: (shouting) No, they don't just happen. Things don't just happen. People make decisions. People prioritize. Okay, the world just doesn't happen! Okay, it's not on God. It's on me or it's on Tucker! Derek: Stop it! Stop. Stop. Bailey: It's on me! Derek: No, stop it. Just stop it. (He grabs her and holds her as she cries) Bailey: Oh, Lord. Derek: You're a good mother. Tucker is a good father. You love your baby. People make mistakes. You didn't do this to your son, and neither did your husband. Meredith and George are seen across the hallway through the office window. ***** Hallway. George and Meredith Meredith: (quietly) He wants to build us a house, with kids' bedrooms and french doors, and that scares me to death. George: Why? Just 'cause of the Rose thing? Well, that shouldn't scare you. It was just one kiss. Meredith: One kiss? George: Yeah, I wasn't eavesdropping. It wasn't like they were being secretive about it. It was just something that happened. Now that you guys are back together, it's not happening anymore, so ... Meredith: Derek kissed Rose? George: Yeah, but you knew that. (She looks at him. It dawns on him that she didn't know that as she walks away.) That I'm an ... An idiot. ****** OR. surgery on Tuck. Webber: Okay, the stomach's repaired. There's no splenic laceration. Hahn: Now all I have to do is get the chest tube in, and we're done. Christina: (in a whisper) That's good, Tuck. That means you're in better shape than we thought. You're almost outta here. Hahn: Dr. Yang, would you like to do the honors? Lexie: I can trade places with you if you'd like. Christina: Uh, no. I'm okay. I'm okay here. (She continues to stroke Tuck's hand) ****** Hallway. Webber and Hahn talking to Tucker and Bailey. Webber: It was the stomach that ruptured and not the colon. Hahn: Both of which we repaired, so the surgery was a success. (Bailey is relieved) Hahn: However, there is a lot of fluid in the chest cavity, so ... at this point, we have no way of knowing whether he'll be able to breathe on his own anytime soon. Bailey: I know that. You don't think I know that? Webber: Uh, we'll be moving him to the pediatric ICU. We'll be watching him closely. Tucker: Can I see my son now? Webber: Absolutely. (Tucker and Webber leave for the ICU. Bailey hangs back.) Bailey: (to Hahn) You're new here. You don't know me. And if what you did today ends up saving my son's life, I'll thank you for it. But if I never have to look at you again after that, that'll be all right with me. (Hahn is resigned to this news.) ***** PEDS ICU. Bailey is sitting next to Tuck's bed. Tucker is standing near by. Tucker: We never baptized him. We kept ... putting it off, thinking we were gonna find time, and now ... Bailey: We will find the time. When this is over and Tuck is fine ... you and I are gonna find time, and we are gonna baptize our baby. (She reaches for his hand, but he pulls away and walks to the head of the crib. He strokes Tuck's head. Bailey looks at him. Then gets up and leaves. ) **** ICU nurses station. Tucker can be seen in the background through the room window. Izzie is at a computer. Alex walks up to her. Alex: How's Tuck? Izzie: He's still not breathing on his own. You know, I wish ... I could help, but I can't think of anything I can do. Cristina always knows what to do. Alex: What's your deal with her? With Yang? Izzie: Nothing. There's no deal. I don't ... I'm crippled with envy. Alex: Of Yang? 'Cause she's better at cardio than you? Izzie: She's not better than me. She just ... she knows what she wants. She has this faith in her skill, in herself, in her future in cardio. It's an unwavering faith. She knows who she is, and I want that. I was chasing cardio because I want what she has. Alex: She's a robot. Izzie: Not the robot part. The faith part. I want that. *********** Elizabeth's room. Elizabeth is resting with her eyes closed. Mai and Donna are at the foot of her bed standing silently. Pan out to the hallway to Webber and Bailey. Bailey: There's probably a thousand scientific reasons why Mr. Greenwald's heart rate just suddenly sab. Without question. And why Mrs. Mccaffrey's staph infection just suddenly disappeared. Webber: Sloan's patient? She's fine? Bailey: I mean, don't get me wrong, I have faith. I do. But faith isn't medicine. Faith can't heal you. Webber: Well, that may be so. But then again ... It can't hurt. ****** Hallway. Derek and Meredith walk past each other. Derek: How's Tuck? Meredith: He's intubated, and we won't know anything for a few hours. Derek: How are you holding up? Meredith: Who's Rose? Derek: (sigh) Rose is a circulating nurse. I kissed her once. I'm sure you know that. That's why you're asking me. Meredith: When? Derek: When? Meredith: When did you kiss her? Derek: Yesterday. Now we can talk... Meredith: So yesterday you were making out with scrub nurses, and today you're building our dream house. Derek: Yesterday we were dating other people. Meredith: That's not the point. Derek: That is the point. I told you I wanted to marry you ... I wanted to build a house and a life with you, and you weren't ready. Meredith: And Rose is? You don't want to build a life with me. You want someone. You want someone who wants the same things that you want. Derek: I knew the minute I showed you those plans you'd find some reason to walk away. Meredith: So what, you called my bluff? Derek: I did because I can't do this anymore. I can't do the fighting, the back and forth. I can't. Are we together or are we not? Meredith: We were together. I was in love with you. You didn't tell me you were married. Derek: Okay, so now we're gonna have that fight again. Meredith: You didn't tell me about your nurse. You want to know why I'm not ready to build a house with you? This is why. Because I can not trust you. Derek: You can't trust anybody. And no matter what I do ... You're always gonna look for reasons not to trust me. I can't do it anymore. I. . can't. Meredith: Well, neither can I. (and she leaves.) *********** PEDS ICU; Tuck's Crib. Tucker is head down on the crib rail holding Tuck's hand. Mai, and Donna walk in. Bailey comes in with Elizabeth and IV. Elizabeth comes to the crib and looks at Tuck, then at Tucker. Elizabeth: (to Bailey) I need you to hold hands. (She takes Bailey's hand and then Tuckers.) Tucker: (confused as to why they are here.)Why? Elizabeth: Because the energy in here, it's ... It's not healing. So I need you to hold hands and focus all of your love on this child. For a few minutes, I want you ... to try to forgive each other. Can you try to do that? (he takes Bailey's hand) (Elizabeth drops their hands and lays them on Tuck's head. Pan out to the gng outside the room watching. ******** Waiting Room. Mrs. O'Malley is knitting a onesie. George sits down next to her. Mrs. O'Malley: It's not for you. It's for little Tuck. Is he better? cWe don't know yet. I know I haven't called you in a while and that there's a lot that I haven't told you, and I know I messed up. But I didn't want to cause you any more pain, and I didn't want to disappoint you. Mrs. O'Malley: You disappointed yourself, Georgie. You should be disappointed in yourself. George: I am. I don't even recognize myself anymore. This isn't the guy that I wanted to be. Mrs. O'Malley: Who do you want to be? George: The guy Bailey named her baby after. I want to be that guy again. Mrs. O'Malley: You won't go to counseling? George: That's just gonna hurt everyone more. Mrs. O'Malley: I miss your dad. George: Me, too. Mrs. O'Malley: Move back home. I'll take care of you. George: Well, I think it's time that I start ... Start taking care of myself. (she nods and gives him a kiss on the cheek.) ********** PEDS ICU. Tucker and Bailey at Tuck's Cribside. Bailey looks up from Tuck and sees everyone outside the room. She goes out to them. Bailey: Hey, it doesn't help me to have you all clustered here, watching. It just doesn't help me. I appreciate that you care, that you're concerned, but I don't need to be watched. (Tucker rushes to the door and pounds on it.) Tucker: Miranda, he's choking. Bailey: He's choking ... (she rushes to the bed side, other doctors follow her.) Bailey: Oh, thank God. (She is near tears of joy) Tucker: What are you talking about? Meredith:(helping to hold Tucker) It's good. He's fighting the tube. It means he can breathe on his own. (They pull out his tube and he starts crying.) Pan out to the hallway. The room door closes with Alex and Izzie watching. ** Hallway outside the PEDS ICU. Alex and Izzie Alex: I need your help. (He walks off and she follows confused.) ******* Elizabeth's Room. Alex and Izzie enter. Alex: Hahn said you'd have a heart attck this afternoon, and you didn't. Elizabeth: So you think there might be something to this healing thing after all? Alex: No, but I'm gonna help you anyway. Or, uh, she is. Uh, this is Dr. Steven. Elizabeth: Hello. Izzie: Hi. I'm sorry. I'm not sure what I'm doing here. Alex: You're gonna talk her through a coronary artery dissection repair. Izzie: She's an expert? Alex: No, no, no. She's a second-year resident like me. But she's been focused on cardiothoracics for a while, and she's seen the procedure done. Elizabeth: Well, I appreciate what you're trying to do but ... Alex: Uh, she's ... She's like a bright yellow, right? Elizabeth: What? Izzie: What? Alex: What I'm saying is she's an optimist. She's the opposite of me. She's exactly the kind of person you want helping you, right? Mai: (knowingly) She brightens you, that's for sure. Alex: Shut up. Izzie: What are we talking about? Alex: Just talk her through the surgery before she croaks. All right? Can you do that? (He hands her the chart) Izzie: You want me to talk you through it? Elizabeth: In as much detail as possible, yes. Izzie: Ah, Okay. Alex: Yang's got nothing on you. (Izzie, all smiles walks closer to Elizabeth and begins drawing on a sheet of paper.) Izzie: There are 4 chambers in your heart, and there are 3 major coronary arteries that supply blood and oxygen ... ***** PEDS ICU. George and Lexie watching Tuck from the hallway. BVO: As doctors, we know more about the human body now than at any other point in our history. Lexie: They extubated him. His blood pressure's up, too. George: Good. Did you know that his middle name is George? Lexie: Tuck's? George: After me. Lexie: I thought Dr. Bailey didn't like interns. George: Yeah, she doesn't. Did you find an apartment yet? Because I was thinking of ... I was thinking maybe I'm gonna get one, and ... *** Hallway. Sloan is standing there, when Hahn walks by ready to leave. She stops, turns back and walks up to him. BVO: But the miracle of life itself ... Why people live and die, why they hurt or get hurt ... Is still a mystery. Hahn: Here's the thing ... You're too pretty. Sloan: Oh, come on. Hahn: No, so pretty, in fact, that if we didn't work together, we would probably be ... But the point is we do work together. And ... in order for me to do my job, I need to leave who I am outside the doors of this hospital. So. (Callie walks out of the elevator, also ready to go.) Callie: (to Sloan) Oh hey. (to Hahn) You ready? Hahn: I am. (and they start walking out the door.) Sloan: Where you guys going? You going to Joe's? I'll come meet you. Hahn: (over her shoulder) Good night, Dr. Sloan. BVO: We want to know the reason, the secret, the answer at the back of the book ... ****** Office. Rose is looking at charts. Derek comes to the doorway. Derek: Do you want to go to dinner with me tonight? Rose: I thought you weren't free. Derek: Turns out I am. And I'd like to go out with you tonight. Do you want to go out with me? Rose: That'd be nice. BVO: Because the thought of our being all alone down here is just too much for us to bear. ************ PEDS ICU. Bailey is stroking Tuck's hair. Meredith comes in. Meredith: How's he doing? Bailey: He's gonna be just fine. Where's your husband? Bailey: Uh, he went home to get some sleep ... And to pack his things 'cause he's getting himself a hotel room tonight. I'm sorry. Bailey: For some reason, life just ... seems to make a lot more sense when you're looking at a baby. (Meredith watches her and the baby. The camera pans backward away from the three of them.) BVO: But at the end of the day ... The fact that we ... show up for each other, in spite of our differences, no matter what we believe, is reason enough ... to keep believing.

Credit & Thanks to ~ Vibrant Fields ~ Grey's Anatomy S4x12 MVO: we like to think that we are rational beings ... (view of Christina with her feet up on a chair in the lounge sleeping with something over her eyes) MVO: humane ... conscientious ... (view of Izzie in the clinic hallway asleep on a gurney with a book/chart in her hands) MVO: civilized ... (view through window of Alex asleep face down) MVO: thoughtful. (close- up on Meredith sitting in her therapist's office) Therapist: This is your third session, and you still haven't said anything yet. Now, while I love the quiet time, ... Meredith: I read a study that, uh, says that just the act of going to therapy is beneficial, even if you don't say anything, even if you just sit. Therapist: So you thought you'd come here and just sit? That's how you're gonna solve your problems? Meredith: I don't have problems. Therapist: What brings you here? (Meredith has no answer for that.) MVO: But when things fall apart ... even just a little ... it becomes clear- we're no better than animals. (pan from the therapist waiting for an answer, to her fish tnk, to roaches crawling across a table. The table is in George's really dirty tiny filthy apartment. He has a book in his hands and is clearly not happy with the roaches as he swats at them.) George: AAAAAAHHHHHHH! (he jumps over a chair and reaches for something in the kitchen area and throws it in the roaches' direction. Lexie is standing in a doorway brushing her teeth.) Lexie: It's not that bad. I mean, once we get rid of the roaches, the apartment George: the CRAPartment. Lexie: George, this is our home. We'll fix it up. George: With what money? Lexie: We'll figure it out. Look, I like it here, and I would like it here so much more if you would like it here, too. (There is a roach crawling across the 50's looking fridge. He swats it with a yell. She watches him. He looks at her, unable to understand how he could get use to it.) ******* Therapist office: MVO: we have opposable thumbs ... Meredith: look, I'm fine. It's just ... I just haven't been sleeping. You know, it's a-the ... just been five weeks, and I can't sleep. Therapist: Five weeks since what? (Meredith says nothing and sits back in her chair.) Look ... I work in this hospital. I try not to listen to gossip, but this is a very gossipy place. So there are some things that I've heard. Meredith: Derek's not the reason I'm ... here. He's not the reason. Therapist: Then what brings you here? (Meredith's beeper goes off. She looks at it, and gets up and leaves.) Meredith: you know, I gotta go. I'm in this contest. Therapist: Grey, if you j ... MVO: We think ... (view of a door and a beeper sounding. Christina bolts out of her lounge room.) MVO: We walk erect ... (View of hallway of gurneys and sound of a beeper. Izzie sits up right with a start. She stumbles up off the gurney and runs down the hall.) MVO: We speak ... we dream ... (view of Alex still sleeping on the couch as her pager buzzes.) ****** View of a larger hallway. Christina is walking fast down it, followed by Izzie and Meredith. They all start walking faster and faster. MVO: but deep down, we're all still rooting around in the primordial ooze, biting, clawing, scratching out an existence in the cold, dark world like the rest of the tree toads and sloths. **** Nurses station. Bailey is moving charts with Tuck on her hip. Webber is leaning on the counter. Webber: There's a contest going on. Bailey: Sir? (She walks away from him, but he follows her) Your residents-they've been living in the hospital around-the-clock for the last 14 days, engaged in a surgical contest with a point system. Bailey: I don't know what you're talking about. (She tries not to look as the sound of sneakers can be heard and then the 3 doctors go fast walking through the lobby. Webber turns back to Bailey with a look.) Bailey: They're committed. It's commitment Webber: It's a lion fight. Bailey: Okay, I have one baby to get to day care. I have 50 residents on my watch, four surgeries on my schedule. The lions can fight all they want. I'm not zookeeper. (Webber starts to walk off, and then turns back.) Webber: Keep your animals under control. Bailey: Yes, sir. ****** Lobby. Christina comes to a halt to avoid Webber. Izzie and Meredith plow into her. Meredith: Move it! They all look across the lobby and see Rose casually walking in with Derek. Christina: She's wretched ... and mean. Meredith: She's not. Izzie: You know, I heard one of the nurses saying that they've only been on five dates. Christina: Yeah, 'cause Derek knows she's wretched, and she's mean. Izzie: Yeah. (George walks up behind them) George: (to Izzie) What did you do to your hair? Meredith: You guys, I know you're trying to make me feel better, but I have to tell you, this pausing to talk about Rose and Derek, it just means ... Christina: Yeah? Meredith: I'm gonna win. (and she dashes off) Izzie: You bitch! (Christina and Izzie follows her, but gets tangled in George briefly) What? (George follows them at a hurried pace. They are bookin' down the halls.) Izzie: (to George) Keeping it clean was getting in the way of the contest, so I chopped it off last night. It just makes me faster and sleeker, like a cheetah. George: You chopped off all your hot hair for a stupid contest? Izzie: Not stupid. Rock star contest. Best contest ever. You should try living in the hospital for two straight weeks, George. It's amazing. Christina: (to George over her shoulder) This contest is for residents only. George: (irritated) Yes! I know that. Izzie: Doesn't mean he can't still live here. I feel juiced and alive, and my brain is clicking and running. I have never been more on my game. Meredith: I'm kinda sad the contest ends tonight. Christina: I'm not. I want that prize. George: What prize?! (as he collides with someone on crutches) Izzie: (slowing down only a bit for George to catch up.)Bailey won't tell us. But I want it. I want it bad. Meredith: too bad you're never gonna get it. Izzie: So on my game! (George has stopped in the middle of the hallway as the girls continnue on, oblivious. He is frustrated and kicks the wall.) *** Nurses Station Derek and rose round a corner. She continues on her way and he stops near Sloan at the nurses station. Derek: (to Rose)Yeah. (to Sloan)Hi. (to nurse) Good morning. Thank you. (Sloan watches Rose walk down the hall.) Sloan: What do you see in her? Is it the hot sex? Is she an animal? Is she a bobcat? Derek: Mark. Sloan: Come on. Lady on the streets, tramp in the sheets. Am I right? Derek: (sarcastic) Oh, yeah. She's amazing. Hot, sweaty. Very dirty, hot, sweaty sex. Sloan: You haven't slept with her yet, have you? Derek: She's waiting until we're serious. She has morals. She's a lady. Besides, you know what's better than sex? Sloan: What? Derek: Anticipation. Anticipation, my friend. ***** Scrub Room. Christina, Izzie and Meredith are prepping. Alex bursts in through the doors. Alex: Why didn't anybody wake me? Izzie: Why would we help you? Alex: There's such a thing as honor. Christina: Yeah, it's dog-eat-dog, Karev. Suck it up. (hands him a booklet as he dresses. She walks off.) **** Hallway. Callie and Hahn still in day clothes walk in. Callie: I'm so not doing thiS. Hahn: You so are gonna do it. Callie: I'm so not. (They walk past where the residents are prepping. Christina notices them.) Christina: (in a lowered voice) Callie. Callie. Callie. Callie. Callie. Callie: Oh, hey. Christina: You-you came in with Hahn? Callie: Erica? Yeah. We went out last night, and then it got kinda late with the dancing and the ... anyway ... we never made it home, so I hitched a ride here. Christina: You're hanging out with Dr. Hahn? Callie: Erica. Yes. Christina: So you and Hahn are friends? Callie: Erica. Yeah. (Izzie, Meredith and Alex rush out into the hall to Christina) Christina: (to Izzie) See, this is the downside of the contest. I'm stuck here all the time, and Callie's living in my apartment and hanging out with Hahn. Izzie: I bet they're just trying to pick up guys. I'm so glad I'm past that. I don't need guys. I don't need sex 'cause this competition is my orgasm. Christina: You know what? I should be hanging out with Hahn. Izzie: Cristina, would you focus? It is so much more fun kicking your ass when you focus. (And she rushes off down the hallway. They all rush after her.) ******** Ambulance Bay. Alex has a clipboard that the others are trying to see. Meredith: Who's winning? Alex: Yang. Christina: Surprised? Izzie: What? Let me see. (she hangs over his shoulder) I'm 26 points behind? That's not possible. (Alex walks away from her. She stands there dumbfounded.) Count again. What about all the surgeries? Christina: Only 3 points for watching. You gotta do. (ambulance sirens in the distance) Izzie: I do do. I can't make them let me do procedures. Meredith: You gotta ask. Christina: You gotta take charge of your own destiny, make it happen, like this. (she marches right up to the ambulance that has now pulled in and throws open the door.) What do you got? EMT: Otis Sharon, 61-year-old male, found unconscious on the street corner with a swollen ankle. Christina: (disappointed) Not it. (and walks away) Otis: I don't even know what happened. EMT: Initial B. P. Was 90 over palp. Vitals sab after a bolus of N. S. (Meredith is looking him over. Izzie: (shouting) Okay, he's mine. All of you back off. Meredith: (sadly) It's a swollen ankle, Iz. Izzie: (firm) Yeah, he passed out, he's pale, altered, hypotensive, and he's got a rash. You see a sprained ankle. I see a medical mystery. 80 points. (She is talking while following the gurney backwards into the hospital. Bailey walks out past her and sees Meredith, Christina and Alex standing around.) Bailey: Oh, Stevens is the only one working today? Christina: Uh, no. We're all working. We got paged. Bailey: For the ankle. It's gone. Now you're trolling for traumas? Meredith: Somebody could come in any minute with a critical injury. We're being proactive. Alex: We're helping people. Bailey: You're trolling. You're trolling, and I've got no one on post-op and pre-op. Now move. (a dirty SUV squeals into the Bay.) Woman: Help us! Please help! Phillip: Help my brother! (Christina opens the door there is a man, Scott slumped in the back seat with a woman. ) Meredith: I'm gonna get a gurney. Phillip: Help my brother. (Alex has run to the Driver's passenger door to see to the woman, Mrs. Robinson. Bailey has opened the driver's door.) Bailey: What happened to your hand? Phillip: Uh, a bear. Bailey: A what? Mrs. Robinson: (to Meredith) He's really hurt. We tried to stop the bleeding. Phillip: We were camping in the mountains. Alex: You drove all the way here? Phillip: We couldn't wait for an ambulance. (to Bailey)I'm fine. Bailey: No, you're not. Let me see your hand. Christina: Sir, let's try and get you on this gurney. (she gestures for Scott to get out.) Mrs. Robinson: Careful. Christina: Step down right here. (She and Alex support him. Scott loses the coat that was on his lap and his intestines start to fall to the ground. Christina fumbles to catch them. The man has passed out and Alex is holding him to the gurney.) Christina: I- intestines in the hands. Intestines in the hands. Bailey: Did you just say- Christina: Intestine in the hands! ******* ER Room. Christina, Bailey and Alex are seeing to the driver's arm. Hahn is also in the room. His wife, Mrs. Robinson, is by the door. Phillip: He just touched it. He just ... just put his hand out. A cub, and then the m- the mother came. Bailey: I bet she did. Phillip: Why would he do that? We go camping all the time. I don't why ... Bailey: okay, try to relax, Mr. Robinson. Hahn: All right, get me a chest tube tray, please. (Webber walks in the room) Webber: Did I hear bear attck? Bailey: Complete evisceration, chief. Webber: Give me 100 of sux, 20 of etomidate. Get me an intubation tray and an O.R. Room ready now. Phillip: Are you gonna put me under? Hahn: Sir, it'll be the best thing that's happened to you all day. Phillip: Is my brother gonna be okay? Please. This whole thing's my fault. I gotta know if he's okay. Meredith: They're taking him to surgery. They don't know much yet. Alex:We'll keep you informed. Phillip: Okay, okay. Hahn: Impressive hand, Phillip. I can see right through it. Mrs. Robinson: (from the doorway) The bear cub, she just latched on and wouldn't let go. And then-and then when Scott came over to try to help, the mother, she ... oh, god. I can't believe we got out of there alive. Pillip: He has to be all right. He's gonna be all right. (Mrs. Robinson goes to his side) He has to be, right? Right? He has to be all right. ***** ER Exam room. Izzie has a stethoscope to Otis' chest. Izzie: You really don't remember how you fell? Otis: One minute I was walking down the street, and the next minute, there was paramedics standing over me. Izzie: Have you been feeling dizzy lately, like the room is spinning? Otis: Maybe a little. Izzie: Any muscle aches? Fatigue? Fever? Headaches? Otis: Well, now that you mention it, yes. Izzie: Any recent travels? Otis: Well, I go back and forth to the east coast for my job. Does that count? Izzie: Notice any tick or mosquito bites? Otis: I- I live near a lake. I get mosquito bites all the time. Oh, god. Do I have something bad, like malaria or west nile virus or something? Izzie: Oh, no, no. There's no need to panic, Mr. Sharon. We're gonna take this one step at a time, okay? Otis: Okay. ******* Scrub room. Bailey, Christina and Alex are at the sink. Webber enters. Webber: Mama bear don't mess around. Bailey: Mama bears never mess around. Hahn enters Hahn: I have a ross procedure, but I want to keep a close eye on his chest tube outputs and blood pressure. What's the game plan? Webber: He's a setup for overwhelming sepsis, so we're gonna deal with the life-thrat blood loss and get out of there. You can't touch him until he's sab. Hahn: I'm in O.R. Four. Can you make sure I'm getting hourly updates? Christina: Oh, I'd be more than happy to apprise you of his condition, Hahn. Hahn: Fine. (and she leaves.) Alex: You don't get points for sucking up to an attending, Yang. Christina: Oh, shut up. ******** Supply closet. Lexie is pulling supplies and putting them into a bag. George enters. George: I hate this contest! Lexie: There's a lot of stuff in here. There's a lot of stuff. George: Stupid, stupid contest- stupid, and irresponsible. I want to play. Lexie: There's good stuff, free stuff. (Izzie enters) Izzie: I need a butterfly needle, a vacutainer, and, uh, maybe an L. P. Kit. I'm 26 points behind, so I need it fast. Lexie: Why, what do you got? Something good? Izzie: Uh, sprained ankle. (Lexie leaves) George: you get 26 points for a sprained ankle? Izzie: Last time callie treated what we thought was a sprained ankle, it turned out the patient was malnourished, had a perforated ulcer and died on the table. George: That's the best case scenario. Izzie: Well, not the death part, George. The medical mystery part. It's 80 points for solving a medical mystery. It's the holy grail of the competition. George: Oh, yeah. Sometimes an ankle's just an ankle, though. Izzie: (determined) Syncope, a very strange rash, pale, insidious onset in a guy who travels a lot. This is NOT just an ankle. (Lexie returns with Izzie's request) Izzie: Oh, thanks. (Lexie pulls a plastic wrapped cloth from a shelf) Lexie: Oh, I could do a lot with these. George: That's an underpad. Underpads soak up urine. Lexie: Or ... it could be a place mat. (George leaves) Lexie: (spying a urinal) OH! Fruit bowl. ********* Phillips Room. Phillip is filling out paperwork. His wife, Mrs. Robinson is there with Meredith and Christina. Phillip: There. Done. bat you, busted hand and all. Meredith: It's completely illegible. Mrs. Robinson: He's a slob. Phillip: Still bat her. Meredith: Okay, Mr. Robinson, O'Malley is going to come and take you to x-ray, and I am gonna take your wife to the waiting room until you get back. Mrs. Robinson: She said "wife." I'm still not used to that. Phillip: We're newlyweds. Meredith: Congratulations. Phillip: She's my rebound girl. Mrs. Robinson: Um, he's a little hopped up on painkillers right now. (to Phillip) I think you're oversharing, honey. Phillip: She thought she was my rebound girl, but I rebounded her, all the way to the church. Only knew her ten days, but when you know, you know. You know? Mrs. Robinson: (tenderly) I'm leaving you. Phillip: I'll miss you while you're gone. (Meredith and Mrs. Robinson leave the room. Mrs. Robinson leans against a wall and starts to cry.) Meredith: Are you okay? Mrs. Robinson: It's just, you know, you marry a man like that ... or a man like that marries you, and he's cute and he's rich ... he's a catch by anyone's standard. So you sort of sit around waiting for the other shoe to drop, because there's no way a man like that marries you. Or me. I mean, he married me. (Meredith looks sympathetically at her.) I'm sorry. I must look like a crazy woman. Meredith: It's okay, but it looks like you're bleeding a little. Do you mind if I just take look? Mrs. Robinson: No, no. I'm-I'm fine. I just scratched myself on a branch when we were running. (She takes off her hat and we see a huge patch of her scalp is missing, and bloody matted hair. Meredith is staring at her head.) Mrs. Robinson: Why are you looking at me like that? ******** Mrs. Robinson's Room. Mrs. Robinson is now in bed. Derek, Sloan, and Meredith are there. Derek: CT is clear. Sloan: But it's deep. That bear clawed you good. Mrs. Robinson: Go I didn't even feel it. Meredith: Adrenaline's a pretty powerful drug. Sloan: You're gonna have to repair the galea, but it should reattach without a problem. Derek: Okay, squeeze my fingers as hard as you can, please. Mrs. Robinson: I just got happy. I just got married, and I'm really, really happy. I don't have permanent brain damage, do I? Derek: No, it appears that you do not. Mrs. Robinson: Okay, good. Derek: (to Meredith) Page me if any neuro deficits appear. (He barely looks at her and walks out. She watches him leave.) Sloan: You got lucky. Your scalp wasn't completely taken off, so we can just sew it back on. Your hair should cover the scar. You won't even need surgery. Mrs. Robinson: That's great. Thank you. Sloan: Grey here will take care of you. You can go back to being a happy newlywed. Mrs. Robinson: Okay. Sloan: (whispered to Rose) Don't worry. He and Rose won't last. ******** OR. Scott's Surgery. Webber: He's hypothermic, and his bowels are swollen. We need to sab him in the I.C.U. And try and get him back to the O.R. when he's less acidotic. That'll give us time to deal with the puncture wounds and the lacerations. Sorry to say that one of you has several hundred sutures ahead of you. Christina (quickly): I can do it. I'll do it. I need the practice. Alex: Her stitches are flawless. I need the work. Christina: Yes, they're flawless because I practice. Bailey: Karev, it's yours. Alex: (elated) Yes. Bailey: (to Christina) You need to update Hahn on the condition of the patient hourly. That ought to keep you busy. Christina: That is a minute an hour. I can suture for the other 59. Bailey: Fine, you both do it. Alex: That's not fair. Bailey: This man was a chew toy for a grizzly bear. There'll be enough to go around. Webber: (mock surprise) A lot of enthusiasm for an afternoon of stitching. Christina: Some people find it boring. I value the fundamentals. Bailey: (to Webber) It's a point a suture. (to Christina) Kiss ass. ******* Hallway. Lexie comes through some double doors and then stops. She sees a picture on the wall next to her. She looks at it, looks around, then takes it and walks back the way she came. ***** Otis's exam room. Callie is looking at an X-ray. Izzie is palpating Otis' ankle. Callie: It is a hairline fracture. His E.S.R. And C.R.P. S were elevated. Izzie: I also appreciated some swelling in the knee. Otis: What does that mean? (Callie is in the background looking at Otis' chart. Listening to Izzie.) Izzie: There could be some sort of inflammatory process going on. Otis: Inflammatory? That sounds bad. Izzie: I don't want you to worry yet, Mr. Sharon. Otis: (surprised) Yet? Izzie: Is there someone I can call for you? Maybe you shouldn't be alone here today. Callie: (concerned) Um, how were his labs? Izzie: W.B.C. 's normal, slightly anemic, potassium's mildly decreased. Callie: Okay, give him, a, uh, k-rider, then see if you can tap the fluid in his knee to check for white cells or crystals. Let me know if the tap's positive. Good luck, Mr. Sharon. Otis: You think I need luck? Oh, god. I want to go home. I want to go home. Izzie: Mr. Sharon Otis: I want ... look, I want to go back. I want to go back to when I was 30, and I want to stop smoking when I was 30. Or back to when I was 20 and not start smoking in the first place. I want to give up coffee and junk food and beer, and I want to be healthy like my ex-wife always nagged me to be. She was a saint. she was a saint, and I drove her away. I want to go back and not drive her away so I don't end up at 60, sick and fat and alone and scared in some hospital with some beautiful young doctor holding my hand, that she wouldn't be holding my hand except she's trying to figure out what horrible disease I'm gonna die of. I ... I want to go home. ******* Hallway. Callie is standing taking a breath when Christina and Alex come around the corner, walking fast towards the elevator. Callie: Where's the fre? Christina: Can't talk now. Gotta kick Karev's ass suturing. (Seeing Karev waiting at the elevator, Christina turns around to Callie.) Christina: Uh, since when are you friends with my mentor? Callie: A," she's not your mentor because she treats you like crap, and "b," if you weren't living in the hospital like a mangy dog, you would've noticed that Erica and I have been friends for a while." (Christina looks back at the elevator. Alex is still waiting.) Christina: You put in a good word for me, right? Callie: We don't talk about you. Christina: I let you live with me. Callie: (looking at her chart)He's getting on the elevator. Christina: Who? Callie: Alex. Christina: (turning around and running for the door) Hold it! Hold it! ****** Computer room. Meredith and George. Meredith: It needs surgery, but callie wants to do 24 hours of antibiotic coverage. So I think we should just irrigate and splint. Geroge: Okay. I'll take care of it. Meredith: Or I could take care of it, and you could take care of the wife's scalp. She needs lots of complex sutures. You could get lots of complex practice. George: Isn't that like a point a suture? You don't want that? Meredith: I think this is bigger than a broken hand. He provoked a bear and then drove himself to the hospital. George: Well, he-he was in shock. Meredith: And he married his rebound girl. George: What? Meredith: He married his rebound girl, after knowing her for only ten days. Nobody does that. Who does that? I'm thinking brain tumor. George: I got married on the spur of the moment, and I don't have a brain tumor. Meredith: That you know of. (pause as he considers that possiblity) George: I'll do the scalp. (he starts out the door) Meredith: You will? George: I'm gonna watch you try to turn a broken hand into a neuro problem just to get some extra points? Nope. (and gets most of the way out the door) Meredith: It's not about the points. George: (turning back to her.) I'm gonna watch you try to turn a broken hand into a neuro problem just so you have a reason to talk to Shepherd? (laughs) Nope. (and walks down the hall.) Meredith: (In the hallway calling after him.) I do not need a reason to talk to Shepherd. If I want to talk to Shepherd, I'll talk ... (she stops, realizing people in the hall are looking at her.) ****** Nurses station. Lexie walks to the desk and looks at charts. In the background, Rose is holding a huge basket of flowers and cannot see around them. She bumps into Derek. Derek: What is this? Is this a hint? I should be getting you more gifts? Rose: A grateful patient gave them to me, but since you're asking, I do like a nice box of chocolates. Derek: You're gonna die of a diabetic coma, and I don't want any part of it. Rose: Cheapskate. Derek: Crackhead. (He leaves and they are both smiling. Rose puts the flowers down on the desk. ) Rose: (to Lexie in a gossipy voice) Have you seen him? Lexie: I have. Rose: Have you seen his eyes? Lexie: I ... Yeah. (Meredith comes around a corner, stopping to write on a chart.) Rose: I'm trying to play it cool. I am playing it so, so cool. (loudly) I love him. Oh, my god. I ... don't know you. I ... didn't say that. (She flees. Lexie looks at the flowers. Then picks them up and starts to walk off with them and comes towards Meredith.) Meredith: What's with the flowers? Lexie: Uh, are you asking as a resident or a sister? Meredith: Sister. Lexie: I'm stealing stuff. Meredith: Okay. (She looks past Lexie) Lexie: Are ... you okay? Meredith: (Leaving in the same direction as Rose.) Resident again now. Stop stealing crap from the hospital. *** Exam Room. Christina and Alex are stitching up Scott. Webber is looking at the monitors. Christina: 22. Alex: Keep a lid on it. Christina: I like to know where I am. Bailey: (entering) Ph is up to 7. 28 Webber: Yeah, not great, but it's improving. Push another amp of bicarb for a boost. Karev's only at 17. Alex: You're not helping! Bailey: (from the med cart) Did you just yell at the chief? Alex: Uh ... s-sorry, sir. Bailey: Oh, I should end this competition right now. Alex and Christina: No! Webber: Uh, uh, I-I mean, uh, it's-it's fine. (Bailey is surprised by his defense of them) I mean, actually, they're doing some nice work. She's beating the pants off of you, Karev. Alex: Don't you have an update to deliver? Christina: Well, I think Hahn can wait a couple of minutes. Bailey: Yang. Christina: Crap. (she throws down her tools and leaves.) Bailey: (to Webber) I thought you told me to keep the animals under control. Webber: Well, from time to time, I like to go to the zoo. ********* OR. Hahn and others are performing surgery. Christina enters. Christina: Dr. Hahn, Mr. Robinson is critical but sab. We had to put him on low dose levofed for his B. P , And he's put out 350 cc's from his chest tube. Hahn: All right. I'll look forward to another scintillating report in an hour. Christina: Of course. (She leaves slowly and then bolts through the scrub room) ***** Stairway. Derek and Sloan are descending. Sloan: I'm thinking we ought to have a little contest of our own. Derek: You want to live in the hospital like rodents? Sloan: Different kind of contest. You and rose, you're not exclusive, right? So I'm thinking you're not serious. One woman, 10 points. 2 women, same time, 20 points. You get out in the morning before anybody wakes up, 5 point bonus. Derek: You are serious. (He's not into the suggestion.) Sloan: You need a little spice in your life, man. I'm just trying to help. Derek: I am truly a worse human being for knowing you. ****** Otis' exam room. Nurse and Izzie are performing a spinal tab on him. Otis: Oh OWWW! Izzie: It's okay, Mr. Sharon. Otis: oh, it's not okay. It hurts. I'm alone. I'm all alone, and it hurts, and I'm not okay. I'm dying. Izzie: (with annoyed determination) By some lucky stroke of fate, you fractured your ankle and ended up at Seattle Grace Hospital with ME as a doctor. And I am gonna find out what's wrong with you, and then I'm gonna do my damnedest to fix it, and if I can't fix it, I'm gonna assemble a team of doctors that are better than me, and they're gonna do their damnedest, too. And then you know what's gonna happen? Otis: What? Izzie: You're gonna live a healthier life, and maybe even call your ex-wife because you're being given a second chance at life and this time- this time you can do it right. You're gonna feel a little pressure. Otis: OWWW Oh! ****** Scott's room. Meredith wheels in Phillip. Christina and Alex are stitching. Meredith: Chief, this is MR. Robinson's brother. Phillip: Can I talk to him? Just for a minute. (Webber nods) Phillip: Hey, man. Scott: Hey, that you, Phil? Phillip: How you feeling? Scott: I feel like A ... like a bear ate my guts out or something. You touched a cub, man. What the hell? Phillip: I wasn't thinking. I ... I'm so sorry. Meredith: So touching the cub, you knew better? Scott: Of course he knew better. He's having an early midlife crisis. He's gonna kll us all. Phillip: I'm not having a midlife crisis. Scott: Dude, dude, dude, you married your midlife crisis Phillip: Just 'cause you got eaten by a bear, you don't get to talk smack about my wife. Meredith: So was this spontaneous wedding out of character for you? (Christina sees where this is going) Christina: You know what? He needs a little rest, so let's have some quiet. (Meredith is unhappy about this, but quietly pulls back Phillip and wheels him out.) Christina: Oh, where was I? Webber: 59 Christina (to alex): You are toast. Alex: tick tock. (He's not worried at all.) Christina: Oh, sht. (she drops her stuff and starts hurriedly around the corner. Webber: Yang, no running in the hospital. ****** ER. George is stitching Mrs. Robinson's scalp. Bailey walks through to Izzie. She sees the spinal tap kit on the desk next to her.) Bailey: Why did we do a spinal tap on an ankle fracture? Izzie: He's getting a full workup. Bailey: How many points? Izzie: What? Bailey: Look me in the eyes and tell me you are not putting this man through painful and unnecessary procedures because you're trying to win a contest. Izzie: I'm doing this because my patient had dyspnea on exertion, headaches, fever, myalgia, a confluent rash intermittently over his entire body. I'm working him up for R.M.S.F and doing lyme titers, but I'm also worried about a rare autoimmune or rheumatoid disease because of his high C.R.P And sed rates, or maybe lupus. I'm doing a spinal tap, too, because he was altered and is amnestic about his fall earlier. I- I do want to win this contest, but I also want to make sure that a man does not leave this hospital with meningitis or encephalitis and discover when it's too late that all we did was treat his ankle. (Bailey looks at her, thinking.) Bailey: All right, then. Carry on. (Izzie gratefully scoops up her stuff and leaves. George walks past Bailey.) George: When you hear hoofbeats, think horses not zebras, right, Dr. Bailey? Bailey: Exactly, O'Malley. Exactly. ****** Phillip's room. Meredith is shinning a pen light into Phillip's eyes. Phillip: Something tells me you're not just worried about the damage to my hand. Meredith: Phillip, earlier today, you were squinting at your paperwork. Mrs. Robinson: I keep telling him he needs glasses. Meredith: And your handwriting was very tiny and wasn't all that legible. Is that normal for you? Phillip: Well, uh, never been a straight-a student, if that's what you mean. Mrs. Robinson: Is he d- or are we done here? We could both use some rest. Meredith: Humor me for one more second. Okay, look straight ahead. Tell me when you see my fingers. Phillip: I see them. Meredith: (jumps up with arms in the air) Tumor! (Phillip and his wife stare at her.) Sorry. Phillip: This is nice of you, really. Dreaming up some brain tumor to make me feel better about the fact that I made a bear mad. Ever cross your mind I may be just the type of guy who's dumb enough to pet a bear? Meredith: Jennifer, is he that type of guy? Jennifer: Well, don't ask me. I've only known him a few months. Meredith: Phillip, you knew better. You touched the cub anyway. That, along with your other symptoms- Phillip: what symptoms? My vision's going bad. So I get glasses, right? Meredith: But it's not just your vision. Brain tumors have been known to impede judgment, prompt spontaneity, impulsivity. (She looks at Jennifer for confirmation. But Jennifer takes it differently.) Jennifer: (sad) He married a trashy waitress, right? I mean, that's what you mean, that he married a girl like me, a rebound girl. Meredith: I'm just saying, I would like him to have an M.R.I Just to be sure. (Phillip looks at Jennifer and takes her hand.) Phillip: Well, the answer's no. Jennifer: Do the M.R.I- Phillip: Honey, I don't need- Jennifer: Phillip, do the damn M.R.I, Because you're wrong. (to Meredith.) He loves me. He loves me. **** OR. Hahn's surger. Christina walks in and just starts talking. Christina: (rapidly) Mr. Robinson is doing better. We were able to D.C The levofed, and he's intermittently awake and lucid. His chest tube has put out 100 cc's since I last saw you, and I'll be back in an hour with another update. (she turns to leave) Hahn: Is somebody chasing you Yang? Christina: Excuse me? Hahn: What are you racing around for? Christina: Uh, uh, no reason. Hahn: No reason? Not because you're running towards the finish line of this surgical contest? Christina: Oh, that. Yes. Hahn: Are you winning? Christina; Yes. Once I finish my sutures on Mr. Robinson. Hahn: Oh, that's too bad. I was gonna let you watch me put Mrs. Witkowsky's new valve in, but if a contest is more important than a cardiac surgery, so be it. (pause. Christina is really torn. She puts on her mask properly.) Christina: (determined) I'd be happy to watch, Hahn. **** Office. Izzie is at a desk looking at papers. George walks in. Izzie: (frustrated) Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap. George: Ankle guy? Izzie: His C. S. Fls spotless, the A. B. Gls normal, the ultrasound is clear- what am I missing? What am I missing? George comes around and looks at the papers too. George: Oh. Izzie: What? George: Right there. Izzie: Where? George: See? Izzie:NO! George: Well, the fact that you're doing unnecessary medical procedures to win a contest. No! Oh, my god. The fact that you and Meredith are both doing unnecessary medical procedures to win a contest. Izzie: Meredith has a medical mystery? George: No, she doesn't. Izzie: Something is wrong. You wanna know how I know that? George: No. Izzie: Great doctors have that extra instinct, George. They just know. George: Great doctors, they know when to stop. Izzie: I have to have that instinct, George. 'Cause my instincts lately? Very bad. Really bad. They told me to go for cardio. They told me to have sex with a married man. George: Oh? Izzie: They are not serving me well. I am in danger of going extinct here if this keeps up, and I am gonna win this contest if for no other reason than I have to win it! *** Computer room. Meredith is at a terminal. George comes in. George: You paged me? Meredith: I thought you might like to see this. George: Is that bear attck guy? Meredith: That's bear attck guy, and that's his big ol' brain tumor. And I'm not requiring an apology, George. I'm not requiring an apology because the fact that I may have potentially saved a life today is reward enough for me. George: You're calling me in to gloat. Meredith: No. I need a favor. (she hands him the chart.) ********* Scotts Room. Webber is still tracking stitches, while Alex works. Alex: What am I at? Webber: 87. You're an underdog, aren't you, Karev? Alex:Sir? Webber: It's not that you don't have the skills. You have the skills. But you're scrappy. You're a fighter. I like that. I always root for the underdog. Alex: I'm a fighter, but, uh, I'm no underdog. Like this guy here. He-he didn't, uh, he didn't provoke that bear. His brother did it. Now he's here, fighting for his life, paying for someone else's mistakes. It doesn't make him an underdog. It just, well, makes him have to work harder to overcome the cards he got dealt. (Webber thinks about this. Monitors start to go off.) Webber: Oh, he's crashing. ht that code button. (They scramble to sab Scott.) Webber: We got a code blue! Code blue! ******* Hallway. George and Derek are looking at Phillips' head scan. Derek: This is Meredith's patient? George: Yes. Derek: She didn't want to come to me herself? George: Hey, I'm just ... her intern. (But he won't look at derek.) ***** Scott's Room. They are performing CPR, but the monitors are flatlined. ****** Philip's room. Close up of Philip in shock. Philip: Oh, my god. Oh, my god. Jennifer: Honey, I'm so sorry. Webber: We did absolutely everything we could. The stress was just too much for his body. (Phillip starts sobbing. Meredith and Webber wait.) Webber: There's more. Meredith: The neurosurgeon is going to come in and talk to you. Jennifer: No. NO. I need to know. please. Meredith: I'm sorry. I was right about the tumor. You have something called a malignant glioma. This kind of tumor causes, uh, behavioral ... it can cause inappropriate affect. Jennifer: Can you operate? Meredith: No. It's too invasive. It's been growing a long time. I'm so sorry. (Phillip pulls himself together and looks up.) Phillip: I ... good. Good, I deserve that. I klled my brother, so I don't deserve to survive. (Jennifer is sad, and looks at Meredith. But there is nothing she can say.) **** Hallway. Meredith is leaving Phillip's room. Jennifer catches up to her. Jennifer: Um ... doctor? I'm a symptom, right? I mean, I'm ... I'm like the bear cub. I'm just a symptom of this tumor. That's what we're saying here, right? Just so I'm clear. Meredith: I don't know. I don't know that. You're the only one who could know that for sure. ****** Otis' room. Otis is resting in bed talking to Izzie. Otis: When you say "negative," do you mean as in bad or as in nonexistent? Izzie: Nothing bad came up. Otis: Well, what about all those alphabet tests you were rattling off? I mean, they were elevated or something. Izzie. Yeah. Um ... they were nonspecific. They likely indicated that you basically have a relatively minor flu. Otis: I have the flu? This whole day ... everything you put me through ... you put me through all this for the flu? Izzie: I'm sorry. I am. It just-it seemed like there was something more. It really seemed ... I know it's hard to see the silver lining here, but think of the discoveries you made today about yourself and your life and-and your ex-wife. Otis: (shouting angrily) My ex-wife was a castrating bitch! She was a castrating bitch, and I never missed her for one day since she left! Not until today! And I missed her today because if we were still together, she would've sht me dad a long time ago, and I wouldn't have had to gone through the hell you put me through! Izzie: (whispered) I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I really- Otis: You treated me like a rat! Like a rat in some perverted lab! Just give my prescription. I want to get outta here. Izzie: (sheepishly) The flu is a virus. It, um, doesn't respond to antibiotics. I suggest plenty of fluids and rest. Otis: Fluids and rest? Fluids and rest? Izzie: I'm sorry. Otis: Fluids and freakin' rest! Izzie: (fleeing) I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm really, really sorry. ********** Hallway outside Webber's Office. Bailey is talking with him. Meredith, Izzie, and Alex are standing outside the door waiting. Christina runs up and joins them. Alex: What are you doing here? You spent the last three hours watching a surgery. That's 3 points. Christina: I'm trusting you guys screwed up enough that it won't matter. Izzie: (agitated) I could still win. I could. I did get a lot of points today. Alex: What's the matter with you? Where's the trash talk, Charles Barkley? Christina: She knows I'm the best. (They rush over to Bailey with Tuck who is exiting.) Christina: Who won? Bailey: (drawing it out.) Congratulaaaations ... Christina: Who won?! Bailey: Grey. The guy from the bear attck had a brain tumor, and Grey caught it. 80 points for solving a medical mystery. That's what put her over the top. Christina: I could've found a tumor. Bailey: But you didn't. You chose to scrub in with Hahn and watch for 3 little points. Now congratulate Grey. Izzie/Alex/Christina: (dejectedly) Congratulations. (Meredith turns to leave.) Bailey: Hey, don't you want your prize? (she holds out a very sparkley, red and white striped object.) Izzie: A shiny pager. Bailey: A sparkle pager. Christina: What's so great about a glitter pager? Bailey: A SPARKLE pager. It is special. It is surgery's holy grail. It's been passed down from resident to resident, and now it belongs to Dr. Grey. For the next three months, whenever you all get a surgery, you have to page this pager, and if Grey wants your surgery, she has the right to take it from you. Alex: Come on. Christina: What? Bailey: Enjoy the power, Grey. (turning back to the rest) Now may I recommend you all go home? You smell, you greasy, you need to bathe, and I'm sick of looking at you. Even my 1 year old here is sick of looking at you. Isn't that right, bug? Sick of looking at your little, ugly faces. Meredith: Somehow I thought I would enjoy this more. Izzie: Oh, well, give it to me. I'll enjoy it. Alex: Don't give it to her. Give it to me. Christina: Oh, shut up. It's hers. She's the winner. She's not gonna give it to you. Give it to me. (Meredith walks off with it thinking.) Christina: (in the background to Izzie) Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? ******* Elevator. Sloan and Derek are silent. Derek is fiddling with his phone. Sloan: I don't like her. I'm sorry, but as your friend, it's my job to say it. I don't like Rose. Derek: Why? Sloan: You're not even sleeping with her. Derek: (surprised)You don't like her because she's not sleeping with me? That's a little weird. Sloan: It's not weird. Derek: It's a little weird. Sloan: Hey, if you were sleeping with rose, I could understand why you're spending time with her, but you're not. And it's-it's just, uh, I thought that, uh, you know ... I thought it was just gonna be you and me. Derek: Having sex? Sloan: After! After Addison, after Meredith. I have been patient. I have waited while you partnered up with these chicks, but now they're over, and it's supposed to be just us, you and me, two guys on the prowl, on the hunt. Derek: You're having trouble getting laid, and you need my help. Sloan: I can get laid. - Derek: Mm-hmm. Sloan: I can get laid whenever I want. Derek: uh- Huh. Sloan: I do get laid whenever I want. Derek: Uh huh Sloan: That's the point. Women are everywhere. (pause) I only have one person I can talk to. Derek: (sarcastic) That's sweet. Sloan: Shut up Derek: No, it's really warm and fuzzy, very sweet. Sloan: Shut up. Are you serious about this woman? Derek: I don't know. Could be. (pause) Sloan: All right. I'll give her a chance. (the elevator dings and opens.) Derek: Good boy (He steps off, leaving Sloan.) Sloan: You're pathetic, and I'm a lesser man for knowing you. Derek: That's my line. You can't use my line. *** Office. Izzie at a desk by herself. Webber walks in. Webber: Thought you were off duty an hour ago. Izzie: I'm just catching up on some paperwork. Webber: Piled up on you during the contest, I guess. Izzie: You know about that? Webber: I know about otis Sharon and the $120, 000 worth of unnecessary tests you ordered. Izzie: Yeah. Well ... I lost. And I put a man through hell for no reason at all. I was a bad doctor today with bad instincts, and I deserved to lose. I don't know why I even bothered competing in the stupid contest. Webber: So I don't need to yell? Izzie: You should. You can. But you don't need to. Webber: Good. (He turns to leave. And then turns back.) Stevens. Izzie: Yes, sir? Webber: My year ... I lost by 2 points. Izzie: You- Webber: you didn't invent the contest. The contest is a lion fight. So chin up, put your shoulders back, walk proud, strut a little. Don't lick your wounds. Celebrate them. The scars you bear are the sign of a competitor. You were in a lion fight, Stevens. Just because you didn't win doesn't mean you don't know how to roar. (pause) Good night. Izzie: Good night, sir. MVO: There's a little animal in all of us, and maybe that's something to celebrate. ******** Christina unlocks her apartment door and walks in. Hahn is sitting in a chair talking with Callie over wine and cheese. MVO: Our animal instinct is what makes us seek comfort, warmth, a pack to run with. Christina: (recovering from surprise) Hi, um Hello, Dr. Hahn. Callie: I hope it's okay I invited somebody over. Christina: (reassuringly) Oh, no, it's fine. It's, uh ... it's an honor to have you here, Dr. Hahn. Hahn: Okay. (to Callie) I have to tell you ... you won't believe it. Callie: Yes Christina: (at a loss) I ... . Was just going in there. (she turns and leaves, but comes back to watch. ) MVO: we may feel caged ... Callie: (in background) are you kidding me? (Callie and Hahn are having a great time.) ***** George enters his apartment. He stops and looks around. MVO: We may feel trapped ... but still, as humans, we can find ways to feel free. Lexie: Be-before you say anything, before you say a word, just-just hear me out. I know it's not much, and I- I-I know it's all stolen. I- it's all stolen and- and-and hospitaly and stolen. (There are exam room curtains over the windows, stolen art and a Scrub Room sign, the flowers, the bedcloths, and sheets covering the furniture, and pillows on the couch. It is swept and tidied, though the fridge, sink, and walls are still horrid.) Lexie: You can turn me in if you want to. You can report me for stealing, 'cause obviously, now I'm a thief. I've never even shoplifted a piece of gum before, and now I'm a thief, except I'm-I'm not. I'm a nester. I'm-I'm nesting. This is me nesting ... for you. Because you hate it here. You want to be at that big house with Meredith and Izzie where things are warm and you have your friends and-and there aren't any roaches. But this can be warm, and I put out traps for the roaches. And-and I ... I can be your friend. No, I-I ... I can be your friend. I d-don't- I don't have any friends here, not-not really, except you. And-and I don't have a home to go to anymore, ex-except here. I just-I ... I can be your friend. George: I complain a lot, don't I? Lexie: I- it's ... okay. George: No. No. You know what? I'm gonna stop. I'm just-m just gonna stop right now. I'm gonna focus on what's good, you know, like, uh, like this crapartment, like this apartment. (The sit on the couch together. She is relieved. He is thinking.) MVO: We are each other's keepers. Goerge: Wish you'd have stolen a tv. Lexie: I tried. They're bolted to the walls. George: Still. **** MVO: We are the guardians of our own humanity. Dark Office with Meredith. Books are open on a desk and she is studying the screen. Her pager lights up. She turns it off. **** Next morning. Derek and Rose exit the elevator and kiss each other good bye. She walks off. Derek: I'll see you. (he looks around and sees Meredith at the Nurses station. He walks to her.) MVO: And even though there's a beast inside all of us ... Derek: Hi. Meredith: I think I found a way to save lives. I don't know for sure, but I think, uh, we can save people who have the kind of tumors that Mr. Robinson has. Derek: Mr. Robinson-the man who was mauled by the-the bear. Meredith: I did all this research, and I found this. It's rare, and it's still untested in humans, but I could find patients for a clinical trial, and I could do the lab work, and I could track the results. But I do need a neurosurgeon, and you're one of the best. It's not about us. I would go somewhere else if I could. But ... I don't know. I think I found a way to save lives. (She pushes the papers towards him. He picks up the first page.) MVO: What sets us apart from the animals is that we can think, feel, dream and love. And against all odds ... against all instinct ... ******* Therapist's room. Pan from Therapist to Meredith wringing her hands on the couch. Meredith: Okay. I think I better start talking now. MVO: We evolve.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "04x12 - Where the Wild Things Are"}	foreverdreaming

Derek: How is the pain today, Mr. Patmore. From one to ten? Mr. Patmore; Eight. It's always eight Derek: The last consultation suggested a bilateral cingulotomie. Cristina: A frontal lobotomy for a headache? Mr. Patmore: Too loud. Please. You can stop this noise is needed these devices?

Before embarking on radical surgery. Mr. Patmore: More tests? Derek: Yes Richard: Dr. Yang, you will assist Dr. Shepherd today. Relations, dedication and personal preferences will no longer be a criterion of the program. Holders bring their education to all residents. We will focus our attention on communication and behavior with patients. For some, it means an effort of humanity and compassion. For others, means learning to treat patients while avoiding being too involved emotionally. Izzie: Shelley Boden, 30, in a stage 4 colon cancer with liver metastases. Shelley has undergone chemo and radiation at high dose. And according to the scan, a liver resection at this stage could be beneficial. Shelley: It will. Bailey: You have questions? -What happens if you find more cancers? Shelley: No, Jenn. A: it will not happen and B: Izzie has already been answered 3 times. Jenn: Izzie is not the chief of surgery Shelley: Izzie is great. We love Izzie. Richard: Here Dr. Grey.Elle will prepare you for the operation and answer your questions. Shelley: Izzie does not stay? This is a surgical program. Psychiatry is the 5th floor. Do not mix the two. Also, I talk to the owners, your house is your own reflection. If they fail, you fail. If they succeed, you succeed.This applies to holders with respect to internal. Teach with enthusiasm. Teach with enthusiasm. We are surgeons. We cut our malignancies. It starts now ...

All is well. ____________________ Alex: fcking chair. Not move. Looks like it's the wheel. -It's always the same with me my fcking toaster last month, then my cat has crossed my porch and collapsed. The image of my TV is green. Alex: I'll take another one. -No need, I'll walk it is less risky. Alex: No, Mr. O'Brian, stay in this chair. It is the regulation of hospital.

OK, do a scan, I want a report every hour. Alex: Yes, Mr. Richard: Everything will be fine. Mike, my ceiling is leaking. Mike: A pipe farted. We'll have to shut off the water.

But you have to admit, you want them to go. At my place, you would have them go? If it works, I'll let the trepanning. Cristina: Well, I want them to leave. Derek: I knew it. OK, Mr. Patmore. It will change your position. Lexie: Dr. Yang, I think I have an idea. Cristina: Do not think so, be sure and will look for the lab results. ____________________ Meredith: Izzie and Alex made cakes is handy. Shelley: OK, when I have more cancer and that I could go out with a sexy doctor. That upsets me and wants to live with me. I forget the cakes and crafts. Meredith: Oh, watch out for 12 hours! Derek: For your guidance, Cristina think they should go, talk to him. Shelley: You did not mention his hair. Meredith: Yeah, the hair ... One of the many things that make me happy. Lexie: Dr. Sloan, I worked with Shepherd on a patient with pain, and I read this article in helping George to revise ... Mark: Pathetic. Lexie: Yes, I'm pathetic but I read this article I have a photographic memory. And the chief highlights the internal with the new program ... Mark: Grey birth. Lexie: He needs an ear, nose. You are not ear-nose? Alex: How are you Mr. O'Brian? O'Brian: Not too bad. My brain could be saved by my ears. Alex: It's spiritual. A few more minutes, stand firm. Izzie: Look what I found ... a nice apartment with wooden floors. A fireplace where you can make cool fires. And I can not pay me. So ... If you wanted, we could live together? Alex: No, thank you. Izzie: I told you about the flooring and the fireplace? Alex: I'd rather live in my single car. Izzie: Okay. Richard: How it will Karev? It is good for the prosecution? Alex: There was no image yet, but ... not. This guy is not of such prosecution. Richard: Hopefully. O'Brian: hey? eh? Richard: I do not know how to apologize you, treat him like a king.

The store where I worked brned. I found an aneurysm that must be operated in a hospital that looks ... To collapse around me.God hates me. ___________________ Bailey: We can easily identify tumors that remain here. Meredith: The liver looks good. Bailey: That's the beauty of surgery. You know, evil surrounded the property. We cut the evil and all is well. Just you and your scalpel, face to face, mano a mano ... OK, that's how my enthusiasm for teaching. Oh no ... ______ Richard: O'Malley George: What! Richard: If you finish your test ... The hospital is flooded, the scan is laid up. I have a waiting list for my patients post op and pre op. I have overcome all this before patients are discovering And we descend below the rank 12. -I found a very quiet room to spend your psychological exam. Richard: Oh, I see. Go ahead. George: Right. I am still your house today. I can help. ____________________ Mark: Dr. Shepherd, one word. Derek: Excuse me one second Mark: I can do a quick test on your patient? Derek: He suffers a lot. There is no need for abdominal surgery. Mark: It's fun. No, Dr. Grey has had an interesting idea. And unlike you, I take seriously the new chief of protocol, and I listen. Lexie: I read something on the swelling and compression of the ethmoid nerve. I think if you put a lift in his nose ... Cristina: Excuse me ... In his nose? Mark: If Dr. Grey is right, the patient will tell. Mr. Patmore, I'm Dr. Sloan. Chief of plastic surgery and ENT. I would like to make a quick test if you may. Mr. Patmore: I saw ENT 16, none could help me. Breathe normally. I'll get this from this angle. Tell me if you feel ... Pain or other ... Mr. Patmore: That's it! This is pain! That's what causes the pain! Oh, my God! Mark: anterior ethmoid neurovascular complex. A simple turbinectomy fix it. Unless you still want to take out his little brain. Derek: Well done. ____________________ Shelley: How did it go? Bailey: Hi Shelley ... Metastases are much more extensive than what the scan showed, and the tumor developed in and around the main blood vessel behind the liver. Jenn: We'll just start chemo. That's all I have already called your oncologist. That's him. I come back. Bailey: You can manage your pain. I'm sorry for not having better news. Shelley: So you took ... a decision for your roommates? Meredith: I'm sorry, Shelley. Shelley: Go. Your boyfriend is a sexy good move in bed? _____________________ Hahn: Listen ... We even know where we stand. Why Mark Sloan knows? Why do you say to him ... Instead of me? Mark: Ladies. I interrupt? Hahn: You're not alone. Really? Mark: You were going to junk?

Cristina: No. No, I .. I shall sketch them but not you. And I just said it because I got drunk. Meredith: So I have to do it? Because I think I will. This is adult stuff, no? Cristina: What does your shrink? Meredith: I dropped the shrink. I am happy, we're happy. Lexie: Hey, I can sit? George! George, how did it go? George: There's a problem of water leakage. I'm just trying to help the leader. Even if all my medical knowledge flow from my ear. Lexie: Eat it, it's good for the brain. Alex: And the guy with the aneurysm? He fell into the water, ht her and got stuck in the scan. Meredith: My patient is dying. I hate seeing my loved ones die. Lexie: Our patient is living with pain. With a current of 8 for 7 years. Because of an inflamed nerve in his nose, it's crazy. George: I wish I had an inflamed nerve in the nose This guy can not live with an eight. Cristina: It's a wimp. His eight is a three for me, I bear the pain. Meredith: You can not talk to my boyfriend 10 minutes. Cristina: There's pain and trture ... And I endure the pain, go test me. Nothing. Alex: It's impressive George: Shut up! You've barely touched. Ouch! Meredith: Stop. Cristina: How did you diagnosed this nerve because I have never heard of that? Lexie: I remembered an article in the British journal of ENT.Number 47, page 19, 1964. Photographic memory Alex: Shit! Lexipédia. George: I hate you. Lexie: Do not hate me, I can help you. ____________________ Bailey: What about the flood? Ricahrd: This is not a flood, Bailey. It is a tube that has ... This is a minor. Do not worry. You're not going for surgery? Bailey: Yes, Mr. Head, a few months ago, Tuck dropped a small toy in the toilet. And I thought it was okay ... But I found myself in a kitchen flooded with water and shit. Richard: In the shit? Bailey: In my kitchen, Mr. Richard: Thank you Dr. Bailley, but everything is under control. Bailey: Yes, Mr. Richard: In the shit ... _____________________ Izzie: There's a leak, and the leader wants to put all the pre op in the clinic. Who will help me? Ouch!

What is the List Meredith? A chocolate cake or an STD ... Cristina: Water! Oh, my God, are everywhere. What happens, come. Notify the head. Richard: Post-op in rooms 2415. Pre-ops in rooms 5 and 2233.4. The flood reached the clinic. Bailey: Head? Richard: I control the situation here, but I need oversight Stevens with pre-op clinic. Bailey: Maybe there should be close. Send patients to Mercy West Seattle Press. They can fix the pipe and it will be up and running quickly. Richard: I send my patients to dry I just left two open blocks, maintenance has isolated the broken pipe. So thank you Dr. Bailley. But when I say that I control ... this is the case. Bailey: Mr. hose may be isolated, but a lot of water has escaped. I mean ... Richard: Dr. Bailey, the clinic! Bailey: Yes, Mr. I will make. ____________________ Lexie: OK, then. George: Wait, you're sure to have the time? Lexie: I really want you to pass your exam. George: Thank you. Mark: Grey? You have bad taste in guys, but you're not useless. The case of Mr. Patmore is very rare ... And you found it. You can operate! Lexie: Now? You operate now? With the flood ... Mark: The flood is under control, our patient suffered for seven years, see you in surgery. Lexie: I can not. I'm sorry but, uh, I'm busy. I support the Head ... Finally, the internal head. - Thank you, may be another time? No, Lassie. Will there be a next time Pathetic. ___________________ Cristina: Mr. Patmore, I'll do a blood test and put a topical decongestant before the operation. Mr. Patmore: Of course. Cristina: How is the pain now? Mr. Patmore: Eight. It is always eight. Cristina: You seemed to get better. Mr. Patmore: I spent 7 years ... I saw 39 doctors ... And I tried all painkillers and nothing worked. I had doctors who told me that it's psychological. I was crazy ... I was mistaken for a junkie. My wife died last year. Having spent years lead me from one doctor to another, test after test, then she died ... This was my best friend. My favorite person. And she died ... And I felt nothing. I did not feel this pain because I was too busy with this one. And now I know what's wrong And Dr. Sloan will fix it.So you're right. I feel relief. Cristina: OK, do this blood test. _____________________ O'Brian: I would not, I will not have surgery. It will be painful.She'll cut in half and probably kll me. If it kills me not, it will still horribly wrong. Probably that become infected. I want to do Alex: Look, you're afraid, but to live, you must be operated. O'Brian: If I want to live? You have not been paying attention? Alex: My girlfriend has become crazy after a phantom pregnancy, she has earned the wrists when I was there, it had to be interned. My roommate wants me out, I can not pay bail.So with luck, I may become homeless. O'Brian: You invent it to make me feel better? Alex: Look, you have to live for a purpose. Or even the possibility for that to happen. O 'Brian: There's this girl at the grocery store. I want to say hello. But I ... I ask only articles. Alex: Okay, well do you operate. It may be that the wheel turns in your favor. It's science. This is ... this is statistical. The wheel will turn. And then ... Tell her hello. O'Brian: You tell him hello. ____________________ Izzie: Chips? Cristina: Chocolate? Izzie: Thank you. Cristina: What? Izzie: You're not a horrible person. Cristina: OK. Izzie: We rarely agree but ... I found this awesome apartment. It is opposite the hospital. Super bright. I know you have the means then there is no Burke ... It must be awful to live in his old apartment. Think about it. ____________________ Hahn: You can remove a little more if you want a better view.Be sure to hold the small intestine inside. Let us avoid a post-op ileus. Alex: That would be better. This guy is sure to be pursued by bad luck. Hahn: It is in melodrama. What's this? Alex: What? Hahn: What is ...? Bailey: Hey, clear, clear the patient! Alex: What? Bailey: Move the patient! Hahn: Oh, my God! Everybody all right? How's the patient? -It is sab. Hahn: All right, we clean. Bailey: I can help? Hahn: Go tell the chief what happens. We need another block.Close all blocks except this one and that of Dr. Sloan. Karev, Sloan find. It has just gn, it may perhaps stop Everybody helps me. We'll move Mr. O'Brian. Alex: What I say to Sloan? Hahn: The sky is falling on us! Mark: Nasal Speculum and xylocaine. Speculum largest and xylocaine. Cristina: You look only? Derek: I am a pain specialist and I want to miss it. So yes I'm just looking. Cristina: Do you use it more than me to try to influence it. It is not a team with Meredith. Alex: We need the block. We need the block! ____________________ Ricahrd: On a patient? Bailey: Yes, Mr. Richard: He collapsed? Bailey: Your team is not injured, but the patient's abdomen was opened. I think it is sab. Ricahrd: Dr. Bailey, spread the word We close the surgical department and sending patients to Mercy West and Seattle Presbyterian ... Bailey: Yes, Mr. Richard: And, Dr. Bailey. Do not brag when you leave. Bailey: I do not boastful M. Hahn: Other damage, it's bleeding somewhere? Derek: No, no blood, I cleared the bottom left upper quadrant. Mark: Pass me the irrigator. Alex: Dr. Hahn, look over there. The pancreas is due to damage? Hahn: No, no ... This is a tumor. Alex: Let shit. _____________________ You're the shrink? Wyatt: Yes. Cristina: You can not let it stop. Wyatt: Let me guess ... Cristina? Cristina: She talks about ... whatever. You can not let it stop because I can not take longer than having to give my opinion. I support ... Then you are my last hope. I mean ... it's your job.You are paid for advice? Wyatt: Yes Cristina: OK, so ... It is eight in his life. His pain ... Every day, his pain is eight. And he not seize it. He moves in and wants to turn his roommates? It shows how he understands it not, because it needs them. Then you should tell him not to f*re them! It will not work over the long term, and be happy but she thinks it's wrong. It's your job to tell him! Wyatt: It must be painful for you ... Leaving Meredith to Derek. Cristina: You're a terrible shrink. ____________________ Jenn: I speak with the oncologist Shelley: No Jenn: There is a clinical trial with chemotherapy and Avastin.And there ... Shelley: You're not a doctor. Stop talking to me like a doctor. Meredith: Did you call me? Shelley: Yes ... because ... I'm dying and I want to stay without knowing what you decided. You look very serious ... Oh, my God. You will break up with him? Not that. I'm dying and you leave everything to the wind. No way. It's not fair ... It's not fair ... It's not fair ... It's not fair! __________________ Alex: Dr. Hahn will speak to you in a few minutes. O'Brian: How did it go? Well? Alex: Actually, not really, the flood brought down the ceiling of the block. The ceiling collapsed, scattering pieces in your incision. So we had to explore the abdomen, more carefully than expected. And found a malignant tumor on your pancreas O'Brian: Cancer? You found a cancer? Alex: Wait. Listen, listen, let me explain. We sent the tumor pathology. It's just a stage. Only stage 1. One never senses of pancreatic tumors so early. When the diagnosis, it is often already condemned. But not for you. Was removed the whole tumor. We removed. You will not even need chemo. This ceiling ... You saved my life. Your luck has turned. She turned! O'Brian: I'll say hello ... this girl. I'll say hello. ____________________ George: Right. Head? Chief, I downloaded the analyzes and radios of your patients on DVD, and I joined your records.There's something else I can do? At Joe's Lexie: How did it go? I know ... e'm pathetic. George and ignores me, and I missed the operation and bah blah, blah.Tell me just how was the surgery? Mark: We have not performed the operation. Mr. Patmore was sent to another hospital. And he will suffer more this time tomorrow. Photographic memory, huh? Periodic, go! Lexie: Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur ... I can continue. Calie: It can burn wood? Cristina: You see? This is what I prefer. Do not you anymore.Look at that, it's fantastic. Izzie: What do you think? Cristina: Thank you! This is a great apartment! Callie: We love it. Cristina: I love it. It's really nice Izzie, thank you. Izzie: Are you kidding? You're kidding, right? Cristina, you're kidding me? I'm getting kicked out of my house, and you think I made this announcement to you I asked you to move in with me. Cristina: Oh, sorry ... Izzie: Oh, yes Cristina: I'm ... wow ... Izzie: hilarious. Cristina: No, I'm sorry. Calie: I, I go to the bar. Izzie: You know what? You're just ... Give me the announcement ... Cristina: I have already paid the deposit, sorry, you should have been clearer. Izzie: Well, you know what? Well, the guard. All is well, you know. All going well! Thank you. Callie: You're kind of quiet but not me, I say out loud what I am.And I'm too invested in my marriage. I can not ... No question of making the same mistakes. And Mark is my friend ... Hahn: I guess I hate him because he saw you naked. ____________________ Meredith: What was the purpose? All those hours and money?It was used for what? The world is horrible. Young people are dying of disease. It's crazy to be happy in a world so horrible. Wyatt: Yes Meredith: What? Wyatt: Yes, horrible things happen. Happiness face all this ...This is not the goal. Feel what is horrible and knowing that will not die despite it. That's the goal. And you have not done You've made progress because you feel things and you tell me. There's six months, you would have been alone with a bottle of tequila. My door is always open. The bones break ... The bodies explode ... The flesh is torn ... Meredith: Are you okay? Izzie: You know, I'm happy for you. Really, for you and Derek And glad to see you move. I know not why I person ... I have nobody. Meredith: It's not true, Iz. This is not true. We can sew the flesh, repair the damage ... Relieve pain. Derek: I found the vintage martini of your mother. Meredith: This is my family. You can not believe I'll turn my family. And do not tell them where most catch me. And not going to try to rally Cristina at your side. This is my family I have them. You and them. Derek: I would like to talk about it when you're ready. But for now, OK. Meredith: So you still love me? But when life breaks down ... When we love ... Derek: Yes. There is neither science nor preconceived rules. We should just go there, and a surgeon, there is nothing worse or no better George: You're sure Mr.? the day was long. Richard: It's one thing to make a speech. But if I want our program to be the best, and I want it. It starts here, and with me. I have done nothing against the flood. But I can give you a chance O'Malley, You've earned it. - Ready? George: Yes Mr. Richard: You have three hours.

MEREDITH (VOIX OFF): In our own way, we shed our skin. Biologically, we're brand-new people. WOMAN: Are you visiting Seattle for the first time? MIRANDA: Oh, no, no. I live in Seattle. I- I just went home for a month. I took my son to see my parents. WOMAN: Oh. What do you do in Seattle? MIRANDA: Uh, I'm a surgeon. WOMAN: Uh, uh, did you know any of those doctors... (lowered voice) from that shting? MERDEDITH (VOIX OFF): We may look the same. We probably do. The change isn't visible… At least not in most of us. But we're all changed… Completely… Forever. MEREDITH: But that's normal. I mean, it's a biological imperative-- change. So the shting changed me. I'm changed. But I'm also ready to get back to work. I mean, as ready as any of us are. But I'm also ready sitting around the house, waiting... I just spend my time worrying. DR PERKINS: Your husband was sht. That's a lot to worry about. MEREDITH: I'm worried about Cristina. She's getting married, and that's just... Well, I had to cut her out of her last wedding dress with scissors, so... DR PERKINS: You watched your husband gets sht. MEREDITH: He's fine. He's coming back to work today, actually. (screams inaudibly)(shell casing clatters) (monitor emitting continuous tone) We're all fine. (monitor alarm blares) (pager beeps) Uh, ex-excuse me. DR PERKINS: Is everything okay, Dr. Grey? MEREDITH: Yes. Yes. Everything's fine. (cell door clatters) (bangs) MAN: Opening two. (buzzer sounds) DEREK: It doesn't look too bad. You just gotta keep an eye on it. Make sure it doesn't get any bigger. But if it changes color, you should see a doctor. MAN: Dr. Shepherd. DEREK: Mm. PRISONER: Your lady looks pissed. (buzzer sounds) MEREDITH: Again, Derek? (cell door clangs) ARIZONA: Whew. (sighs) (elevator bell dings) What? CALLIE: Nothin'. Just… You're awesome. MIRANDA: Chief. RICHARD: Oh, Dr. Bailey. Welcome back. MIRANDA: Thank you, sir. RICHARD: We missed you here. The place isn't the… same. Mm. Uh, did you get cleared for surgery? MIRANDA: What do you mean, "cleared for surgery"? Who has to clear me? (elevator bell dings) MEREDITH: Well, the next time, I'll leave you there. DEREK: You said that already. MEREDITH: Oh, Derek got arrested again. DEREK: Meredith… MEREDITH: Reckless endangerment. DEREK: Please. CRISTINA: Did he lose his license yet? MEREDITH: Oh, no, because they don't charge him, because the cops worship him. DEREK: Because I saved some of their lives. MEREDITH: What are we picking? CRISTINA: Dress color. I'm not wearing white. Mm. It's sexist and… vaguely rcist. Oh. No white, no veil, no rice. MEREDITH: Well, what will your mother say? CRISTINA: No mother. MEREDITH: (sighs) you know, I didn't get cleared for surgery… and I'm pretty sure it's your fault. DEREK: Meredith, I am the chief. I can overrule the counselor. MEREDITH: You can? (chuckles) Yes. I love the blue. APRIL: Chief shepherd, you're back. DEREK: Good morning. APRIL: I find a giant skull base chordoma. Biggest one I've ever seen. DEREK: Really? APRIL: He came in to the e.R. With trouble breathing. MEREDITH: You got cleared for surgery? APRIL: I did. MEREDITH: Bitch. CRISTINA: I like the brown, too. APRIL: I know it looks inoperable. I mean, I would've said it was inoperable, but you're back and you're you. DEREK: Right. Hey, uh, yes, good morning. Thank you. Thank you very much. (staff cheers) Good. Thank you. Thank you very much. It's, uh, it's great to be back. First of all, I'd like to thank Dr. Webber for stepping up in my absence. Thank you. (staff cheers) Uh, I'm grateful for all of you, for all of your support during my recovery. Thank you. Uh, it's just, uh, so great to be back as chief. I'm grateful for the, uh… (inhales sharply) I'm sorry. That's a lie. That's what people say, and, uh, the truth is… (man clears throat) I hate being chief. I hate it. (staff murmuring) Chief Webber… (murmuring continues) Chief Webber is our chief. Um… And I'm sorry, but this giant… Sorry, I gotta go look at this chordoma. I, um, I'm sorry, but… (chuckles) I quit. (staff murmuring) Let's go, Kepner. Come on. APRIL: Oh, sorry. Okay. MIRANDA: (laughing) He just quit. (continues laughing) MEREDITH: He was supposed to clear me for surgery. ALEX: (exhales) Yeah. TEDDY: The bllet's at the surface. That's good. I can take it out now. ALEX: Nah. I mean, if it's not infected, I’m gonna keep it. It's my wr wound. (chuckles) Besides… Chicks dig that crap. (door opens) (beeps) CALLIE: (sighs) Oh, my god. MARK: Wow. You weren't kidding. APRIL: The last surgeon broke the dura, which enabled the tumor to mushroom into the brain and down into the spine. DEREK: It's wrapped around his brain stem. (beep) whatever we do, we need to do it quickly. MARK: The size of this thing... Normally I open up the sinuses or the hard palate. DEREK: Well, now you have to open up both. MARK: You want me to split his whole face open? Sinuses, hard palate, tongue, jaw… CALLIE: A broken jaw is excruciating, let alone the rest of it. MEREDITH: Does this kid know what he's in for? DEREK: He wants to live. I don't think he's concerned about the pain. MEREDITH: Well, but you don't know how enmeshed the tumor is. You don't even know if you can get it all. DEREK: Thank you, Dr. Grey. MARK: If you want to try this thing, Torres and I are gonna need to coordinate. What are we thinking, a week? DEREK: No later. CALLIE: I'll clear my schedule. Welcome back, Dr. Shepherd. DEREK: Thank you, Dr. Torres. MEREDITH: You're not even cleared for surgery yet. (monitor beeps) DEREK: I'll get cleared. (clears throat) (Reflection eternal feat. Estelle) (record needle scratches, music stops) RICHARD: Uh, Dr. Grey. MEREDITH: (chuckles) Chief Webber. RICHARD: Yeah, a little… little exercise. MEREDITH: Okay. RICHARD: Mm. Something I can do for you? MEREDITH: Yeah. Um, that stupid counselor Perkins, he won't clear me for surgery. So I was just wondering… RICHARD: No. MEREDITH: But he cleared… RICHARD: I'm… I'm sorry. I am. But we brought in the best, and when Andrew Perkins says you're not cleared, then it's him you need to talk to. LEXIE: Did you hear that Dr. Yang and Dr. Hunt are getting married? DR PERKINS: I did. LEXIE: It's pretty great, huh? It's almost like a silver lining. You know, I… I've read a lot about trauma and how, uh, sometimes people just up and change their lives. They say that the trauma was the best thing that could've happened to them. You know, like Dr. Shepherd this morning. Did you hear that he's not chief anymore? DR PERKINS: And how have you been, Dr. Grey? You've been through a lot since I last saw you. (gn) (flashback) ANDREW: does, uh, anyone have anything to say? I know that, uh, a lot of you are only here because this has been mandated. So let's talk. Anything at all? CRISTINA: I ate a really good taco from one of those trucks by the side of the road. MEREDITH: When? CRISTINA: Last night. You were asleep. JACKSON: Which truck? The one on 7th? ALEX: I want to I like tacos. APRIL: Me, too. LEXIE: I read a book… About the history of mass mrder in the US. That's… that's the actual name of what happened to us. It was a mass mrder. You can't call it a trror1st attck, because the mrder weren't political in nature. And we weren't the victims of a serial kller, because Mr. Clark would've had to mrder several people over a period longer than 30 days in order to qualify him as a serial kller. We could call it a spree klling... (gn) which is defined as killings at two or more locations with no break or pause in between, because Mr. Clark sht that guy in his car before he got here. But I'm not sure that… that counts as a true second location since it was so close to the hospital, which means that we were a mass mrder, because it happened at one place, by one person, and more than four people were klled. (object rattles) (taps fingers on table) OWEN: Oh, that was quite a show this morning. DEREK: I didn't plan it. OWEN: (chuckles) Made it better. Any regrets? DEREK: No. Any regrets about proposing to Cristina? OWEN: None. DEREK: Getting sht turns out to not be the worst thing after all. OWEN: I need a best man. I… I know… I know we're not that close, but… I don't know. You being married to the other twisted sister, I… (chuckles) I just thought it… It kinda made us like brothers or something. DEREK: I'd be honored. It's an honor. OWEN: Thank you. DEREK: You need a bachelor party? OWEN: No, no, no. DEREK: Even better. (elevator bell dings) (siren wailing) DR PERKINS: On the, uh, day of the sh*ting, I understand that you had a particularly difficult day. MIRANDA: On the day I gave birth to my son, and he needed a craniotomy, and he almost died on Derek Shepherd's table. Now that was a particularly difficult day. And at the end of that day, my son was born, and my husband lived. But at the end of this day… The, uh… ‘Unh! (shell casing clatters) No! No!’ Um... This daywas the worst dayof my life. (flashback) BEN: Miranda. (she gasps) I'm sorry. I didn't mean to… MIRANDA: No, you… you don't just sneak up on people. Okay? BEN: You don't… I got these. I was, um, I was playing golf. My phone was off, and I'm... MIRANDA: You know, 18 people got sht, 11 died, one in my arms. A boy died in my arms, and you were playing golf. BEN: Bailey… MIRANDA: We gotta go. (Tuck babbles) BEN: Well, where… where are you going? MIRANDA: Home, uh, to my mom. Right? Yeah? We're gonna go see grandma? Yeah, Tuck. Here you go. BEN: When are you coming back? MIRANDA: Okay, here, here. Here's your car. BEN: Miranda, w… when are you coming back? MIRANDA: (engine turns over) Okay, okay, okay, okay. Okay, tuck. DONNA (PATIENT’S MOTHER): No. No. GREG (PATIENT): M… mom. DONNA: You're talking about slicing his face in half, breaking his jaw, cutting his tongue. It's just… it just sounds crazy. DEREK: I know. I wish I could offer some comfort, but honestly, there's no comfort that can be offered in this situation. Let me just say that... Every medical advancement started with the statement, "that sounds crazy." Let me try. Donna, let me help. DONNA: Okay. Let's try. Let's... Okay. DEREK: Good. Okay. MEREDITH: He could not wake up. He could… wake up… and never be able to move again. He could go blind. He could lose his ability to speak or to eat. He could require around-the-clock care for the rest of his life. He could be in a tremendous amount of pain for the rest of his life. He could die on the table. If that doesn't happen, if none of those things happen, he's still facing months of excruciatingly painful recovery from this surgery. And before you make a decision, you need to understand the risks. You're driving awfully fast, Dr. Shepherd. The least you could do is wear a seat belt. DR PERKINS: You've been working. ALEX: In the clinic, in the pit. We haven't been allowed to operate, which makes zero sense if you ask me. DR PERKINS: I'd like to, uh, talk to you about the incident last week. ALEX: She's not my responsibility. DR PERKINS: She was your girlfriend. ALEX: Well, she's not anymore. (monitor beeping rhythmically) (flashback) MARK: Karev, give me another suture. LEXIE: My patient didn't bring her meds. She doesn't even know their names. I… if I give her albuterol and she's on propanolol, then she'll stop breathing. If… if I give her warfarin and she's on ibuprofen, then she'll… then she'll bleed out. If I give her diphenhydramine and she's on doxepin, then she'll die. So do… do… do you think she wants to die? MARK’S PATIENT: Is she kidding? MARK: Karev, what's going on over there? LEXIE: I think that she wants to die. I think she wants me to kll her. Do… do you… do you… do you want me to kll you? Because you… you could just get a gn, and it would be a lot faster. MARK: Karev, get her outta here. LEXIE: You know what? So why doesn't somebody find a gn... (clattering) And we'll bring her a gn and just sht her... MARK: Karev, help her. I can't step away. Get her out of here! LEXIE: 'cause she obviously wants to die Help! Somebody find her a gn 'cause she wants to die! ALEX: I got my own stuff to do. LEXIE: Somebody find something! DR PERKINS: Why did you walk away? ALEX: Look, life is too short. I almost died trying to stop that guy. Besides, I mean... You know how much tail you get offered when you're carrying a bllet around in your chest? It's like I'm a legend. DR PERKINS: Are you, uh... always this crass, or is that a defense mechanism? I've had too much crazy for one lifetime. MARK: You cleared Lexie Grey for surgery? DR PERKINS: Dr. Sloan, I'm in… I'm in session. MARK: I had to check her into psych last week. I had to commit her against her will! And you just clear her for surgery? What the hell kind of doctor are you? LEXIE: It's okay. You can talk to him. ALEX: I'll come back. MARK: Yeah, walk away. You're good at that. DR PERKINS: She got snowed. Psych put her on heavy doses of antipsychotics and benzos. And then she slept for almost 50 hours straight. When she woke up, she was no longer a risk to herself or others. I mean, she has P.T.S.D. Most of you do. For her, it caused severe sleep deprivation and led to a breakdown. All she needed was sleep. So protocol is that she goes back to work. LEXIE: See? I'm okay. Really. I'm back. TEDDY: Clamp. OWEN: So how are you? I hear there's a guy. TEDDY: Yeah, there's a guy. OWEN: Mm. That good? (laughs) TEDDY: (laughs) Shut up. I need another clamp. So… You're getting married. OWEN: I am. I am getting married. TEDDY: I'm happy for you. I am, really. OWEN: Really? TEDDY: Yeah. OWEN: Thank you. JACKSON: I dig weddings. I do a mean chicken dance. CRISTINA: Oh, there will be no chicken dance. And if you start a conga line, I will physically throw you out. APRIL: I just went to cafeteria, and some nurse called me Reed and then said, "I thought you died." LEXIE: Yeah, don't go to the cafeteria for lunch. They just point and stare. JACKSON: Is that why you dyed your hair? CRISTINA: They stare because we should've died. LEXIE: Pack a lunch. Keep it in your locker. MEREDITH: (Alex laughs) You are kidding me. You got cleared? ALEX: It's down to you and Yang. MEREDITH: That is not funny. CRISTINA: Well, Perkins is no dummy. He can see the crazy right under the Meredith Grey surface. MEREDITH: Again, Cristina, it's not funny because you're not gonna get cleared either, and the two of us are gonna be serving slushies at the multiplex. CRISTINA: Really? I'd choose dermatology over multiplex. JACKSON: No, I'd go gynecology over dermatology. CRISTINA: Oh, of course you would. Perv. LEXIE: I think I'd go with psych. That was a joke. CRISTINA: (forced laughter) That was good. MEREDITH: Anyway, I don't know what Perkins' problem is with me. CRISTINA: Maybe he saw your file. ALEX: Maybe he knew your mother. JACKSON: Maybe he heard how you told the sht to sht you. MEREDITH: Not funny. JACKSON: Not a joke. MEREDITH: Dr. Bailey. APRIL: Welcome back. ALEX: You okay? MIRANDA: I'm happy to see you all. Karev, there's a patient in 23-04 that needs an endoscopy. Grey and Yang, surely your paycheck covers more than stuffing your face in the basement. Get to the clinic now. And, you two… I'm awful sorry about the loss of your friends. APRIL: Thank you. JACKSON: So are we. MIRANDA: 22-13 has a bowel impaction, and I'm sure as hell not about to stick my hands in there. DR PERKINS: You, uh, quit your job this morning. Should I be worried about impulsivity? DEREK: (laughs) I didn't quit my job. Being chief wasn't my job. I'm a surgeon. That's what I do. That is who I am. DR PERKINS: But before you got sht… DEREK: Oh, I wanted to quit that job every day before I got sht, I just didn't have the guts to do it. After I got sht, I, uh... (gasps) Life is short. So now I think less and… DR PERKINS: So... for you, the shting was clarifying? DEREK: A l… a lot of people died in that shting. DR PERKINS: I'm saying, in your life today… DEREK: A lot of people died. (flashback) APRIL: Meredith went to get something to eat. (voice echoes) She should be back soon. (groans) Um... I'm sorry I got you sht. By coming out of the office… I didn't listen, and then you got sht. I… I got you sht, and I just need to say, I am so… DEREK: April… APRIL: So sorry. DEREK: Gary Clark came here for me. I gave the order to pull the plug on his wife. I got everyone sht. MEREDITH: So-- oh! Is this what I need to do to get cleared? DR PERKINS: (clears throat) Dr. Grey, you're early. I'll, uh, I'll call you later. TEDDY: Yes, please. MEREDITH: That was creepy and inappropriate. I want a new counselor. DR PERKINS: Teddy was never a… a patient of mine. She was cleared for surgery before I got here. We just met in the cafeteria. MEREDITH: I'm not interested in your love life. I don't care how love blooms over day-old hot dogs. My husband is about to remove the largest chordoma on record. You cleared Lexie Grey last week. You cleared Alex Karev, who insists on running around the hospital with a bllet in his chest. DR PERKINS: I know who I've cleared. MEREDITH: So then why don't you tell me what you want me to say, and I'll say it. DR PERKINS: Dr. Grey, I don't think that you're being honest… With me or yourself. And I think that's a potentially dangerous situation. So what is it that you're not saying? (monitor beeping rhythmically) (flashback) MEREDITH: Who's with Derek? CRISTINA: Uh, when I left, um, Mark Sloan was with him. MEREDITH: And where's Owen? CRISTINA: Um, I don't know. I… I think he's still talking to the police. MEREDITH: Okay, not a word of this to Derek. You have to tell Owen because he knows. Not a word. CRISTINA: Okay. MEREDITH: And April Kepner. She knows, too. CRISTINA: Okay. MEREDITH: Well, go… go… go tell them. Go… go back to the hospital and tell them right now. CRISTINA: Don't you want me to stay for this? MEREDITH: No, I want you to go. Go and… and make sure no one says a word to Derek. CRISTINA: Okay. Okay. (monitor beeping rhythmically) (sighs) (door opens) DOCTOR: Your friend left? You want me to wait or... MEREDITH: No, just do it. DOCTOR: The d&c's pretty straightforward. The fetus was only at about 5 weeks. You'll feel some cramping after, but it shouldn't be too bad. TEDDY: Andrew and I just got busted by Meredith Grey. ARIZONA: Callie's watching me sleep. TEDDY: What? ARIZONA: She's watching me sleep. And she only watches me sleep when something is up, and I'm afraid that she's gonna propose or… start talking about making babies again, which I'm… I'm open to, honestly, just not right now, you know? And I can feel her watching me, and it is such hard work to keep my eyes closed, but I know that if I open them, that something loaded is gonna come out of her beautiful mouth and pop the pretty pink bubble that we've been floating in. TEDDY: You want to pop the bubble. ARIZONA: I don't, though. TEDDY: Believe me. I've been living in that bubble for years. Oh, no. Owen and I? We're just friends, really. Finally knowing the truth? I don't regret that. ARIZONA: My bubble is so pink and so... Pretty. TEDDY: (taps pen on counter) Pop the bubble. (Arizona sighs) DEREK: I heard you were looking for me. RICHARD: The board officially reinstated me this morning. No more "interim chief." DEREK: Well, I'm glad to hear that. RICHARD: You sure? No seller's remorse? DEREK: Oh, have you seen the tumor I'm chasing? No, no seller's remorse. RICHARD: You feel good about this surgery? DEREK: That sounds like a loaded question. RICHARD: Look, I know Perkins cleared you for surgery. Uh-huh. And I know better than to question your judgment, but... I still have nightmares, and I go to two A.A. Meetings a day. I'm not all the way back, and I didn't get sht. That's what I mean when I say, do you feel good about it? DEREK: I feel adrenaline. And, yeah… The adrenaline feels good. (chuckles) (buzzing) MEREDITH: I can't believe I'm not down there. I can't believe I'm not down there. MARK: Palate's divided. Torres. CALLIE: Yeah. Okay. We're good. MARK: Here we go. RICHARD: You ever see anything like this? OWEN: I've seen mortar fre that didn't do this much damage. MARK: All right, let's bring that microscope in and get you started. Everybody’s ready? (monitor beeping rhythmically) DEREK: Okay. There's the tumor. We're there. Microdissectors, please. MEREDITH: Get up. CRISTINA: No. MEREDITH: Get up. Ow! Ow! Ow! Let's go. CRISTINA: What is wrong with you? MEREDITH: Everything is wrong. Derek is decapitating a teenager, and April Kepner is assisting, and you're sitting reading about lilies of the freakin' valley. CRISTINA: Well, you prefer peonies? MEREDITH: We are not better. Cristina, a psychiatrist, given several opportunities, has deemed unfit to do my job. CRISTINA: Well, he'll get over it. Just go back in a couple of days. MEREDITH: You are not better. CRISTINA: Well, in a couple of days, I'll be better, too. MEREDITH: In a couple of days, you'll be married. CRISTINA: Are you trying to talk me out of this? MEREDITH: Look at me and tell me you're sure. CRISTINA: Okay, you know what? No. You don't get to do this. Okay? All you get to do is help me break the tie between the lilies of the valley and the… and the peonies. That's it. MEREDITH: No, I do get to do this. I mean, Derek’s the love of my life, but you're my soul mate. I do get to do this. I mean, why can't it wait six months? CRISTINA: Please don't. Don't. MEREDITH: Your flowers aren't going anywhere. You broke up with him because he couldn't choose you. CRISTINA: Don't… don't… don't do this. MEREDITH: Just why does it have to be right now? CRISTINA: You know what I think? I think you should tell Derek about the miscarriage. MEREDITH: We're talking about you. CRISTINA: We're talking about us not being "better." Then you need to tell him. MEREDITH: He's not ready. He's… he's not okay. CRISTINA: Well, you're not okay. You should tell him. DR PERKINS: Well, Dr. Yang, if you don't feel ready, there's no pressure. The hospital is prepared to work with you in whatever way… CRISTINA: What… I'm sorry. I… I'm getting special treatment? 'cause I'm the girl who operated with a gn to her head? If you don't want to clear me, don't clear me. DR PERKINS: Well, you didn't show up for your appointment last week. You were very late today. CRISTINA: I'm getting married. DR PERKINS: I heard that. Congratulations. CRISTINA: Can I go now? DR PERKINS: (chair wheels clatter) When you think about going into an O.R., how does that make you feel? CRISTINA: God, the women in these magazines... (pages rustle) Some of them are actually brides, you know? They're not all models. All smiling. It's like the only thing in the world that matters is that they find the perfect shoe to match that dress. (inhales deeply) God, you know, I knew these girls. I w… I went to school with them. It's funny. I used to feel sorry for them. They're simple girls. They just want to find the guy and get married, you know… and live. (magazine pages rustle) I don't know. I think you're earthborn simple or you're born… me. I want to be the person who gets happy over finding the perfect dress. I want to be simple. Because no one holds a g*n to the head of a simple girl. ‘Stop fixing him! (crying) Owen, help.’ (bang) (flashback) CRISTINA: Who is it? OWEN: I… it's me. It's Owen. Hey. CRISTINA: (chain rattles) You're late. OWEN: I'm sorry. Hey. CRISTINA: It's not okay. OWEN: Cristina, what is this? CRISTINA: (voice breaks) I don't want to be alone. OWEN: You don't ever have to be alone again. I'm not going anywhere, Cristina. I won't ever leave again. You hear me? I am not going anywhere, Cristina... If you let me stay. CRISTINA: Thank you. OWEN: I'm sorry. I'm sorry I was late. CRISTINA: Thank you. Thank you. (cries) thank you. BEN: Miranda, look, um… Look, um… I… I was playing golf. And I… I can't apologize for it because it wasn't anything I did on purpose. I was just… I was playing golf. I missed you, and I just… MIRANDA: You're… You're a good man. You are handsome… And kind… And smart. I mean, you're perfect. But, um… I'm… Busy. Holding myself together with tape and glue. And a piece of me wishes that you hadn't played golf, because… (voice breaking) then you'd be all taped and glued, too. And maybe you'd be where I am. BEN: Shh. I... MIRANDA: (crying) You're… You're too much for me right now, 'cause I'm busy with the tape and the glue. BEN: (whispering) Shh. Shh. All right, all right. All right. All right. You take care of yourself. MIRANDA: You, too. MEREDITH: You were amazing in there. DEREK: Let's make a baby. MEREDITH: What? DEREK: Mm-hmm. Come on. (clears throat) Let's do it. Let's start right now. Let's just pull the goal view… (pager beeps) Oh, god. It's Greg. Damn it. APRIL: I… I already gave him 10 of morphine. He's in too much pain. I'm gonna start him on propofol. DONNA: (crying) Greg. I never should've let you do this. I never should've let you. DEREK: All right, Greg. It's Dr. Shepherd. You have to listen to me. Greg. Greg. Greg, this is the fight. T… The pain's gonna stop. We're gonna help you. But until it does, this is your fight. The tumor's not driving anymore. You are. You're in the driver's seat. The life that's in your head? You get if you fight. (beeping continues) You got it? Good. Good. Donna look, this… This pain? Yeah. It's not a dying pain. It's a healing pain. This is a victory pain. (Donna’s sobs) You won. (monitor beeping rhythmically) We won. DEREK: Hey. (chuckles) (sighs) what? What? I went out to get some ice. Oh, don't be mad. We'll make the wedding. MEREDITH: Mm. I'll make the wedding. Just wanted to see you were alive for myself. DEREK: Meredith. (chuckles) Meredith. (cell door closes) (playing discordant notes) (spoon clatters) ALEX: You ok hot. The whole, uh, "crazy eyes, tight dress" thing, it's, uh, it's working for you, for whatever it's worth. LEXIE: You think that you are so badass 'cause you lived. I'm the reason that you lived. And while you were dying, you were crying out for the wife who left you. So that's the opposite of badass, for whatever it's worth. MARK: I'm jealous. (Callie sighs) I think I'm jealous of Hunt and Yang. Mm. You know Derek’s gonna be the best man? We hardly even know the guy. CALLIE: I'm gonna do it. MARK: You're drunk. CALLIE: That's why I'm gonna do it. ARIZONA: Lame surgery ran long. Sorry. What'd I miss? CALLIE: I have something... to ask you. ARIZONA: Oh, no. CALLIE: I want you to move in with me. I love you, and you have a drawer and a toothbrush, and I want you to have a whole dresser and a whole… blow-dryer or something… more romantic than that or… Something. MARK: You're doing great. Push through. CALLIE: (whispers) okay. (normal voice) Unless you're just totally hating the idea, which… would be okay. ARIZONA: Is that it? CALLIE: Is what it? ARIZONA: You just want me to move in to a place that I basically already live? CALLIE: Mm-hmm. ARIZONA: (whispers) thank god. (normal voice) Yes, yes. Calliope, yes. I would love to have a dresser and a blow-dryer or something more romantic. CALLIE: Oh! (laughs) MEREDITH: Oh. How are you doing? You okay? OWEN: Yeah. I'm okay. Uh, Derek? MEREDITH: Uh, I'm sorry. He's not coming. OWEN: Um... He's my best man. MEREDITH: I know. Do you want to pick a new one? Mark looks great in a suit. OWEN: Derek had the ring. MEREDITH: I have it. OWEN: Oh, okay. MEREDITH: Are you still good? OWEN: Yeah. MEREDITH: Okay. OWEN: She is gonna come down those stairs, right? CRISTINA: I never gave you any crap about your post-it. MEREDITH: You look beautiful. CRISTINA: I know. How's Owen? Is he good? MEREDITH: Owen's perfect. He's perfect. CRISTINA: Thank you. MEREDITH (VOIX OFF): When we say things like, "people don't change". It drives scientists crazy… because change is literally the only constant in all of science. OWEN: Thank you. MEREDITH (VOIX OFF): Energy… Matter… It's always changing… Morphing… Merging… Growing… Dying. It's the way people try not to change that's unnatural… The way we cling to what things were instead of letting them be what they are… The way we cling to old memories instead of forming new ones… The way we insist on believing… despite every scientific indication… that anything in this lifetime is permanent. Change is constant. How we experience change… That's up to us. It can feel like death… Or it can feel like a second chance at life. If we open our fingers, loosen our grips, go with it… It can feel like pure adrenaline… Like at any moment… We can have another chance at life… Like at any moment… CRISTINA: I do. MEREDITH (VOIX OFF): We can be born all over again.	{"type": "series", "show": "Grey's Anatomy", "episode": "07x01 - With you I'm Born Again"}	foreverdreaming
Jason: Yea [Grunts] Come on baby. Mike: Hello?Hello?Aloha?Whoa. Carol: I said it before and I'll say it again, this whole vacation stinks! Jason: Carol if you can't say something positive, don't say anything at all. Carol: Fine! Mike: That's all it takes to shut her up? Mom: That applies to you to Mike.Things are bad enough with us stuck on this rundown garbage scout with a broken motor and a radio that probably never worked. Jason: Well, thanks for those positive words Maggie. Mom: Oh did I say anything about the false economy of renting this thing instead of a real boat just to save a few measly dollars? Jason: Well, that was $175 measly dollars and this thing is a boat. Maggie: If it doesn't have a bathroom it's not a real boat. Ben: Are we gonna die? Mom: No, honey we are not going to die.

Mike: Oh, no not me.I was totally stoked. Carol: Not at first.Remember when we first heard about this trip? Jason: Alright, now that we're all together, I guess we can begin. Carol: What? Jason: It's time for another Seaver family meeting and none of you is going anywhere! Carol: But Bobby's going to be here in less than an hour. Jason: So you had him coming over before you asked us?

Ben: Dad, your mental patient. Jason: Right, just, uh, talk.[Everybody starts talking at once] Carol: Aw, Mom I'd love to go, but... Mom: Shhh...[Mike and Carol at the same time] Mike: Comon Mom.I was planning on hanging out with Eddie and Boner in the pokemons for a week or two.Go camping and fishing, some good clean fun.Mom?I mean, I'm 17, I should have fun while I'm young, shouldn't I? Carol: [incoherent] July is the one month that Bobby isn't going to be working.I know, Mom, save your money by not going, how's that? Ben: Wow!This vacation's gonna be neat! Maggie: Oh, honey Ben.Would you mind taking your dessert into the living room and watching a little television? Ben: Sure! Mike and Carol: Aw, Mom! Maggie: You two could have a little consideration for someone else's feelings. Carol: But I... Maggie: If this vacation doesn't happen, he'll be moping around the house and crying for a month. Mike: He'll get over it.He's 11. Maggie: No, he's not.He's 39. Mike: When you were my age, did you want to go off with your parents for 10 days? Maggie: I most certainly...Well, honestly, I... Carol: Mom... Maggie: Oh why did you father have to pick this year of all years for a wonderful, beautiful, romantic vacation like Maui? Mike: Well, I guess we'll just have to tell him that we can't go. Carol: No.Let's make this decision in the right spirit.Let's vote for Florida.It'll make your father happy because it's cheaper, it'll make little Ben happy, and it's only a two-hour flight if any of us happen to have to rush back to see our editors.Agreed? Mike: I guess. Carol: Sure. Maggie: And we won't mention a word of this to your father. Carol: How am I going to break the news to Bobby, huh? Mike: What are you kidding me?This trip will give him a chance to do a little trolling.Alright, well, ten days with tinker bell or we've got...Holy Toledo!Look at this babe.Oh and this one!Ai yai yai!This is an island full of foxes here!Wait a minute.Why didn't someone tell me this, this Maui place is Hawaii? Carol: And that's when Mike went to work. Mike: I sure did.And I started with the weakest link. Ben: Hey! Mike: Benny, Benny, my lad.We must talk.Alright now, do you really want to spend 10 boring days in Orlando, Florida? Ben: At Disney World?Are you kidding? Mike: Alright, just look at this. Ben: So?It's a girl with coconuts on her... Mike: Exactly. Ben: Wow!This Maui has horseback riding! Ben: They let you ride on the beach! Mike: Ben, you're not gonna...I mean, uh, yea, yea.Yea, dude, you can just ride your little brains out over there.And I wouldn't be surprised if they let you keep your horse right in your hotel room! Ben: Alright! Carol: No!I am not going to be 6,000 miles from the man I love. Mike: So what, 1,200 miles to Florida is better? Carol: Yes!At least we'll be in the same time zone. Mike: Why?So you can call him every hour and make sure he's not out scamming babes?Ah ha!That's it!That's it! Carol: I'm gonna put goofy glue in your zit cream. Mike: What would you do for me if I promised to get Mom and Dad to let you stay home? Carol: What?! Mike: I had her hooked then.So you're interested? Carol: Mike said if I voted for Maui, I wouldn't have to go. Boyfriend: Ten days in July?Oh, Carol, that's when my summer job ends.We were supposed to spend some time together before school starts. Carol: No, wait!You haven't heard the good news.Mike has promised to fix it so I don't have to go with them! Boyfriend: Alright! Carol: So, for ten days I'll be here, all alone.So you see, Dad, the family vote was rigged. Jason: So what will it be then, folks?Florida or... Ben: Maui!Maui!Maui! Maggie: Maui? Mike: Maui would be ok, right Carol? Carol: Yes, Maui! Jason: Well, then it's unanimous. Maggie: As long as we're all together. Jason: Oh. Maggie: Honey, I... Jason: No, no, no.It's fine.Hey, it's fine.Yep, it's just fine.Well, I will have a good time for all of you because I'm going swimming. Ben: Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!A shark! Maggie: Jason!Jason!Swim back here! Mike: Dad!Come on!Swim! Carol: Hurry!Hurry! Mike: Ben, Ben.That's not a shark.Sharks do not have blowholes. Ben: They can if they want to. Jason: And where was I before all the commotion?Oh, that's right, I was having fun for everybody.I was swimming.You know, fishing is fun, too.Fishing is more fun than swimming. Carol: This whole mess is all your fault, you know. Mike: Mine?Look, you think I like being stuck out here?Man, I have got to get back to, uh, I've got to, uh, um.Let's just say I've got a little rendezvous, alright? Carol: Rendezvous?Spell it. Mike: R-u-n...alright, so I can't spell it.Big deal.But Mike Seaver does not limit what he does to what he can spell.And speaking of doing, ever since we got here a whole world has been going on you've missed. Jason: Whoa-ho!Will you look at this view?Didn't I tell you guys we'd be in paradise? Mike: I was trying to figure out how many nights we were going to have in Maui and how many women I'd get a chance to meet.When I saw her.Who was this fox?How come I saw her the minute we got to Maui? Jason: Hey, Mike! Mike: And how was it possible that her tour group was staying at our hotel?It was so clear to me.God was telling me that this girl should be my first Hawaiian experience.Like if I didn't at least try to meet her it would be a bad sin. Jason: Mike, come on! Mike: You know I always like to do the right thing. Local tour guide: Ok, why don't we just get a little bit closer together?Ok, that's it.Looks like someone's just joined my tour without paying. Mike: Hey, how'd you spot me? Local tour guide: Uh, why don't you move just a little bit more to your left? Mike: Before I knew what happened... Local tour guide: A little bit more. Mike: She agreed to give me a private tour of the island. Local tour guide: More.Perfect.[Japanese] Mike: This afternoon.As in today, but no I'm out here on this stupid tub.T-U-B. Carol: Serves you right.You were gonna get me out of this trip, remember? Mike: Uh, Dad.You got a sec? Jason: Hold on.Hold on.I'm talking to the travel agent. Ben: Get out of the sht, Mike! Mike: Uh, Mom, mom.You got a sec? Maggie: Uh, sure, Mike. Mike: Yea, well, see, Carol wants to blow off this whole family vacation thing so she can hang out with Bobby while we're gone.What do you say? Maggie: Absolutely not. Mike: Eh, I tried. Carol: What?!Bobby, I'll miss you every single second we're gone. Bobby: I'm really going to miss you, too.And remember, I'll call you every day at six o'clock.Wait a minute.That's six o'clock your time.My time will be, uh... Carol: So here I am stuck on this stinking excuse for a boat.I can't even get his call.He's gonna think I met some gorgeous hunk who swept me off my feet and that I'm playing around on him. Mike: Why would he think that? Maggie: Come on, you guys.Lose the long faces.I'm trying to cheer your Dad up.You could help, you know. Carol: I can't believe that while I've got to get to shore, you're gonna sit here and fish! Maggie: Well, I have to go to the bathroom, but we don't always get our way. Mike: Oh, come on, Mom.It's easy for you.I mean what else do you have to do other than float around out here? Susan: Maggie!I am getting great reaction to part one of the nuclear power series.When can you have part two? Maggie: Well, Susan, the thing is, is that I am going with my family to Maui and... Susan: Oh? Maggie: But I'll be back in... Susan: Well, that's ok, I'll put Carine on it. Maggie: Carine? Susan: Give her all your research.Have a good trip. Maggie: This is my series! Susan: Have fun!Send me a postcard. Maggie: I'll do it!I'll do it!You know, from the day we got here, I haven't exactly been on a full time vacation.When I went to bed with your father, the real work began. Carol: What are you saying? Maggie: Just stay with me, Carol.Oh, honey, I couldn't disappoint your dad.But I couldn't disappoint myself, either.So, I figured what he didn't know couldn't hurt him.At night, when everyone else was sleeping, I'd work on my story in the bathroom.If your dad woke up, I could always use my old standby excuse.Diarrhea. Jason: Oh, really? Maggie: Oh, honey, I... Ben: Hey, Dad!Aren't you going to show Mom the fish you caught? Maggie: Oh, honey, I can explain. Jason: No, no.Don't say a word.I understand, I surrender.I surrender to all of you.I was wrong to think that a family vacation might be a good idea.'Cause you've all got other things to do.More important things than spending a little time with your loved ones.That's alright, forget it.Forget it.Let's be honest, this trip is over Never mind. Mike: Hey, Dad.Is that a spark plug? Jason: Forget it, Mike. Ben: Hey, Dad, I can't film it if you're standing on it. Maggie: Jason, does that spark plug have anything to do with the fact that we're lying dad in the water? Mike: Yes, it does! Jason: Ok, you know, with Mike running off all the time and Carol sulking and Maggie you have been preoccupied.Yes, yes, yes.Well, I knew that if we could just spend a little...if we were forced to spend some time together that fundamentally we all wanted to be together.And I know you're gonna get a kick out of this because I just... Maggie: Jason.The spark plug. Jason: What spark plug? Ben: Hey, you guys, just wait until you see the neat stuff I videotaped! Everybody: Shut up, Ben. Carol: S-E-A-V-E-R.Are you sure there aren't any messages?Well, I'm sorry, too!Bobby probably called and when I wasn't here, he was so angry he couldn't leave a message. Carol: I can't leave this telephone, Dad.Are you crazy? Jason: What was I thinking?Maggie! Maggie: I would eat Jason, but I have a deadline but I wasted so much time bobbing aimlessly about in the ocean. Jason: Uh-huh.Mike! Ben: Oh, he's gone again.Maybe this time for good. Jason: Well, alright, then that leaves you and me, Ben. Ben: My dinner's taken care of. Jason: What? Ben: Well, see, there's this really neat thing here.You just pick up the phone, tell them what you want, and they bring it right to your room. Jason: Room service? Ben: That's it!And you can eat it in your underwear! Jason: Come on, Ben.The whole point of a vacation is to get out, so you can see things, and you can meet people, and you'll have a good... Hadley: Hey, Ben!Hey, how's it going? Ben: Hi Hadley. Jason: I'll be in the restaurant.Alone.Ok, bye! Hadley: Bye!Here you go, Benny. Ben: Wanna eat with me? Hadley: Naw, I can't do it.nzi's? Carol: No, we're New Yorkers. Hadley: No, your book.This may be the first time I've ever seen a guest reading that.Oh, wait, there was another time Kirk Waldheim stayed here once.It's a little history joke. Carol: That's funny! Hadley: Actually, history's going to be major at Yale in the fall. Carol: Yale, huh?Well, I love history, too. Hadley: No kidding? Carol: Yea! Hadley: The Boxer rebellion?The Dark Ages? Carol: The Inquisition! Hadley: That's fun stuff! Carol: I'll say! Hadley: Well, listen, um, tomorrow's my day off, you wouldn't want to get together and have a little chat about the Black Plague of Europe would you? Ben: She can't, she's going with some guy. Carol: Shut up, Ben. Malia: Aloha, Mike. Mike: Uh, don't these things usually come with a kiss? Malia: Yea.Did you remember to bring your trunks? Mike: Hey, I haven't been able to think about anything else. Malia: You're gonna love this!Well, what do you think? Mike: Uh, look, where you taking me? Mike: Uh, you know, there's dad people here. Malia: Sure, my great grandfather, his father, and my great aunt Loki... Mike: Yeah, well, you know I'm sure they're very nice people.Uh, polite, well behaved. Malia: Just follow me. Mike: Look, where are we going? Malia: To heaven. Mike: Exactly how do you mean that?	{"type": "series", "show": "Growing Pains", "episode": "03x01 - Aloha: Part 1"}	foreverdreaming
Narrator: Last time on Growing Pains... Jason: It's time for another Seaver family meeting and none of you's going anywhere. Ben: Dad wanted a family vacation. Jason: Takes your breath away, doesn't it? So what's it gonna be folks, Florida, or... Ben: Maui! Maui! He thought we were all excited about the idea. Mike: Maui would be okay! Ben: But, there was trouble ahead. Oh boy, oh boy oh boy, a shark! Mom had to work on a story. Jason: That explains why you've been too tired to socialize. Carol: Yea, I love history too! Ben: Carol found there was another fish in the sea, while Mike enjoyed the local culture. Malia: Look like someone's joined my tour without paying. Mike: Hey, how'd you spot me? Malia: Aloha, Mike. Did you remember to bring your trunks? Mike: Hey, I haven't been able to think about anything else. Ben: So tonight, let's see what happens to our vacation in Maui. Mike: Uh, where are you taking me? Malia: Someplace neat. Come on. Come on. Mike: Uh, well you know, there's d*ad people here. Malia: Sure. My great grandfather, his father, my great aunt Loki. Mike: Yeah, well, you know I'm sure they're very nice people. Uh, polite, well behaved. Malia: Just follow me. Mike: Look, where are we going? Malia: To heaven. Mike: Exactly how do you mean that? Mike: Wow! Malia: This is my beach. Mike: You own this? Malia: Everybody owns this. Mike: Oh yeah, you know that's kind of like a state park. See, we got those in Long Island. But there's so many people and all the graffiti all over the place. This is a great beach, you know, I mean, you got sand and shells, the works. Malia: Why are you so nervous? Mike: I'm not, I'm not nervous. I'm not nervous. Malia: Is it because you haven't spent much time alone with me? Mike: Um, what're you kidding? I mean, well, yea, I guess you can say that I haven't spent nearly enough time with you. Malia: It's ok, I like that. Usually boys from the mainland talk to me like they know everything and I know nothing just because I spent my whole life here. Mike: Oh well, trust me, I know less than any guy you ever met. Malia: I sense that about you. Mike: You know, I sense something about you too. From the moment you said Aloha. Malia: I can say it again. Aloha Mike. Mike: Aloha, Malia. Oh wait a minute, what are you doing? Malia: I'm going swimming. You did say you brought your trunks, didn't you? Mike: Oh, uh, right. Jason: What's this? Waiter: This is a hollowed out pineapple with booze in it. What did you think it was, a thermonuclear device? Jason: I didn't order that. Waiter: But the lady in the front corner sent it. Jason: I'm married. Waiter: A blonde twinkie over there. Oh right, here she comes. Maggie: Hi, good looking. I'm Roxy. Jason: I'm Raul. Waiter: I'm Ted. Jason: Can I buy you one of those? Maggie: Anytime. Jason: So do you, um, live here? Maggie: Of course not, this is a hotel. Get in the game. No, no, actually I am here visiting with my family. Jason: Are you really? Me too. Maggie: But I'm afraid I behaved a little selfishly and, uh, stupidly towards my husband. And all he wanted was just to have his family all together. Jason: Sounds like a hell of a guy. Maggie: Oh, he is. Jason: Well, it's no exaggeration to say that he's married to a pretty terrific lady. Maggie: Why thank you, sir. Jason: You are more than welcome. Maggie: Boy I wish that my husband were as easy to talk to as you are, Raul. Jason: Really? If he were here right now what would you say to him? Maggie: I'd say Jason, I just wanted the last part of my story and from this moment on I'm here for some family fun. Jason: ...The room service. Send it right to your room. You can eat it in your underwear. Waiter: Whoops. Malia: This is a typical old-fashioned native home. Mike: Oh, uh nice. Malia: You like it? Mike: Yea, yea. Uh, do you know these people? Malia: I live here. Mike: Oh, I love it. Oh, it's nice. Malia: So what time does your family expect you back? Mike: Uhh, hey, what family? Malia's Mom: Malia! Malia: [Hawaiian] That's my grandmother. Mike: You live with your grandmother? Malia: And my grandfather, and my mother, and my father, and my uncle Mike: Oh gosh, you live with all these people? Malia: Uh huh. Mike: Oh well, bet you can't wait to move out of here. Malia: Why would I want to do that? Mike: Well because, you know, you never have any privacy, you probably don't have a life of your own. Malia: Well it wouldn't be any fun without my family. Child: Aloha, hi! Mike: Oh hi! You didn't tell me you had a little sister. Malia: No, this is my daughter. Lena, this is Mike. He came all the way from the mainland to visit us. Mike, this is Lena. Mike: How's it going? Jason: Oh wait, gotta check on the kids. SHHH. Maggie: Sorry. Jason: Go go go. Maggie: Ben's asleep and Mike's still out. Oh, we should wake her up. Carol: Bobby! You were supposed to call me every Oh, oh I'm sorry, hold on a sec, mom it's for you. If Bobby calls tell him I'm out, tell him I'll be out tomorrow too, tell him I've got plans. Big plans. Jason: Good night. Maggie: Hello? Susan, hi. No, no, no, no, I can hear you just fine. Good. What? My story went national? Oh, you're kidding this is fabulous. Once in a lifetime is right! What other interview? Uh huh. Well ok, ok. When do they need it by? Uh huh. Day after tomorrow? Oh, Susan, that means I'd have to come back right now. Well I know its important, I know it's important, ok, ok, hold on. Honey? My story went national? Oh, you're kidding this is fabulous. Once in a lifetime is right! What other interview? Uh huh. Well ok, ok. When do they need it by? Uh huh. Day after tomorrow? Oh, Susan, that means I'd have to come back right now. Well I know its important, I know it's important, ok, ok, hold on. Honey? Jason: Aloha. TV: Maui the perfect place for the ideal family vacation. Jason: Yeah, right. Early night tonight, Mike? Mike: Yeah, it sure was. Jason: What happened? Mike: Ah, forget it, Dad, you wouldn't understand. Jason: Well try me, what's it about? Mike: Women. Jason: Yeah, you're right, I probably wouldn't understand. Mike: See Dad, I went out with this girl and she was beautiful, she was gorgeous, she was perfect Dad, and the only thing is she turned out to be not a girl. Jason: What? Mike: She, she was a woman. Jason: Well how old was this woman? Mike: Seventeen. Jason: Oh, she's a girl. Mike: No, Dad, she has a girl. Jason: She has a girl. Mike: This girl/woman, Malia, she has a kid! Jason: Well this girl/woman with a kid Mike, does she also happen to have a husband, too? Mike: Well, not anymore. Jason: Well define not anymore? Mike: Well see, she got married really young and this dude turned out to be one of those guys who just wanted to party and mess around all the time. You know, one of those guys only thinks about himself, you know the type. Jason: Kind of, yeah. Mike: Yea, well, Dad, seeing Malia standing there with her little girl was weird. Jason: Why? Mike: Dad in all the dating I've done which, let's face it, is considerable, usually the only kid involved is me. Jason: Well, what you're realizing Mike is that every girl you date is a person; she's always going to be somebody's daughter, or sister. Mike: Or mother. Ben: Hey Carol! Carol: Stop yelling, Ben. Ben: Mom and Dad wanted to check and see if you wanted to go with us take Mom to the airport. Carol: What? Ben: Are you coming to the airport or not? Carol: No! I said goodbye already. Ben: You know Carol, you'll get a better tan if you wait until the sun finishes coming up. Hey Carol, look, it's Hadley. What a coinkydink, eh, Carol? Hadley: Hi! Carol: Hi! Hadley: So you weren't busy this morning? Carol: Oh, gee, was it this morning you said that this was your day off when the hotel let you use the guests with the pool? Uh, the pool with the guests. Jason: Well, okay then. Ben, can you point that thing somewhere else please? Ben: Ah, this is where the mushy stuff starts anyway. Maggie: Oh honey, I'm so sorry. Jason: Sorry. Maggie: This is where the mushy stuff starts. Jason: (mumbling) Maggie: Me too. And I'm really sorry I'm so needed at the paper. Jackie: It's not your fault you're so successful. Maggie: Are you serious? Jason: So what are you going to be missing for a couple days of relaxing in the sun? Big lu'au that I made reservations for? Me? I'm kidding. I'm fine. I know someday we're going to have a family vacation together. I'm kidding. I'm fine. I know someday we're going to have a family vacation together. Maggie: I'm sure we will. Ben: Hey Dad, you want to go horseback riding with me? Jason: Well I don't know Ben, the last time I went horseback riding Ben: Hey Dad! Look it's Bobby! Bobby: Hey Dr. Seaver! Hey Ben! Jason: What are you doing here? Bobby: I came to surprise Carol. Ben: Dad, quick you gotta buy me some more video tape. Tour guide: [Japanese] Bye bye! Bye bye! Malia: Are you trying to join my tour without paying again? Mike: I don't know what I'm trying to do. Malia: I sensed that about you. Carol: Well, that's fundamentally true. But it's generally conceded that the Roman Empire fell when the intelligentsia shifted its priorities from concern of the welfare of the empire to totally selfish and hedonistic pleasures. Hadley: Tell me about it. Carol: Ben, what are you doing here? Ben: Now! Bobby: Yo, Carol! Carol: Bobby! Ben: Is that it? Is that the best you guys can do? Bobby: Oh, so this is what's been going on behind my back, huh? Carol: It is not, I've spent seven days waiting for that phone to ring which it never once did. Bobby: That's because I was working overtime saving money time to come here and surprise you. Hadley: Hi, I'm Hadley Barnes. Bobby: Hi, I'm really steamed. Carol: Bobby! Ben: Hey you guys, say cheese! Jason: Hello, yea, this is Dr. Seaver, I had a reservation for five for your lu'au tonight and, uh, I have to cancel that. Yeah, I'm sorry, too. Well, who knows where the kids are and my wife had to go back to her job. So. Reporter. So, anyway, just cancel it, Ok? Thank you. Ben: Dad, dad, the horseback riding was fantastic! You should have come! I got this really neat horse that looked like the black stallion only it's butt was white! Jason: Well, yeah... Ben: So what time's the lu'au? I mean, what do they do there? Do they have a lot of food? Tell me! Tell me! Jason: You're quite a guy Ben Ben: Why, what'd I do? Jason: Well, you are the eternal optimist. Ben: You mean I need glasses? Jason: I mean you and I are going to go to that Lu'au and we're going to have a great time so you go get changed, ok? Yes, Dr. Seaver. I just canceled that reservation for five to the Lu'au and I'd like to reinstate it for two please. No, no, no, she didn't come back. What they do is they take a pig and they stuff an apple in its mouth and they put him in the ground and they roast it. Ben: While it's still alive? Jason: No, no, see Ben: Hey Dad, there's Bobby! Jason: Yo, Bobby! Why don't you come and join us for the Lu'au? Bobby: Oh, you don't have to be nice to me just because Carol cut my heart out and stomped on it. Jason: Nothing personal Bobby, all the women in our family tree treat men that way. Ah, Seaver Party? Waiter: Uh, yes, party of two, I remember. Jason: Well, there will be three now. Ben: Yeah, my sisters sulking and my brother disappeared again and my Mom flew home. Waiter: I heard she's a reporter. Table for three. Ben: All right! I'm going to be able to get real close to the hula girls! Jason: That'll be perfect, thank you. Carol: What's he doing in my seat? Jason: Carol, we didn't know you were coming. Carol: Well, uh, I'm certainly not going to let him ruin my vacation. Jason: Well, we have a table for four. Bobby: I can go. Carol: It's up to you. Jason: Four of you, eh Man: I was waiting for the younger gentleman respond. Jason: You stay. Man: This way. Bobby: So? Carol: So? Bobby: Where's your boyfriend? Carol: Hadley is not my boyfriend, we were merely discussing the fall of Rome. Bobby: Carol, that man was greasing your back. Carol: Don't make it something gross! Bobby: Oh, me? Look, I might be slow compared to you but I know what I saw. I saw a guy coming on to you. Now you're so beautiful and smart maybe you're used to that but I'm not. Carol: Beautiful? Bobby: I was always afraid of losing you. I never thought it would be so soon. Carol: You afraid of losing me? Bobby: Why wouldn't I? Carol: I don't know, I always thought that I was you're absolutely right, Bobby, honey. Jason: Enjoy the lu'au. Mike: Hey everybody, it's Luna, Malia's little girl. Everyone: Hi! Mike: Yeah, see her Mom has to work, and, uh, she's going to meet us a little bit later. Come on, don't play with the silver ware. Hey, you gotta keep your eye on her all the time. Hey Luna, no! Jason: Waiter! Excuse me, I hate to say it, but I think we're going to need uh. Waiter: Why don't you just take that table over there, it seats up to twelve. Jason: Oh, yea, thank you. Mike: Hey come on Luna, help play with the sand! We're over here, come on! Jason: Mike, I thought you weren't ready for women with kids. Mike: Yeah, well you know, I was thinking about what you said about there being more to girls than just the way they look. Jason: You thought that? Mike: Yeah! You know, I figured that everyone eventually ends up with women with kids, can't be that bad, can it? Jason: Well, Mike, you know being part of a family isn't always easy but it's always. Mike: Luna, no! Jason: Interesting. Maggie: Hi handsome. Jason: Married. What? Ben: Mom. Maggie: Before you say a word, when I changed planes in Oahu, I called Susan at the paper and I told her that my family was just as important as my career. Jason: You're here! Maggie: Jason, have you been listening to me? Jason: You told Susan that? Maggie: Honey, are you one question off? Jason: Of course I'm listening. So, the story can wait? Maggie: No, she didn't say that. Jason: Who? Maggie: Susan. Jason: What? Maggie: She didn't say the story could wait. She said if I didn't realize how much the paper was counting on me then there was no reason for me to hurry back. Jason: You're here! Maggie: Yes! I quit! Jason: You quit! Your job? No, honey, you got to call her back. Maggie: Ok. Jason: Ok, what? Maggie: No, I'm kidding. Jason: Kidding about quitting or kidding about calling? Maggie: No, I did quit my job and I'm not calling anyone. Jason: You're unemployed; I don't think that's good. You know, maybe you should. Maggie: Oh, Jason, shut up. Finding another job is easier than finding another family. Ben: It wasn't me.

Jason: I better sit down. Mike: I warned you guys.Look, I'd love to chat about this some more but I'm going to be late for the first night of work so. Maggie: Mike we're not finished talking. Mike: Well, gee Mom, I don't know what else I could possibly tell you guys. Jason: Well, how about how did you hear about this job?Who are you working for, what are your hours? Maggie: How you're going to get your homework done? Jason: How much does it pay? Maggie: Is it legal? Mike: Hold it. Maggie: Mike, you look a little dizzy maybe you'd better sit down. Mike: Come on, I get the feeling that you guys have no faith in me at all.What have I ever done to make you feel that way? Jason/Maggie: [incoherent] Mike: Alright, alright. Jason: Ok Mike, tell us about the new job and don't sound like a game show host. Mike: Ok, ok.I just work three afternoons after school and on Saturdays, with Boner. Maggie: Go on. Mike: And okay, in the stores it's just right at the street in the mall next to that shop that sells the sexy underwear for women. Jason: I know the place.I get my haircut near there. Maggie: So how much does this job pay? Mike: Well, it's a job in sales, Mom Jason: How much? Mike: Well, it's kinda hard to say. Jason: How much? Mike: Well, see, when you sell things you get a commission, and I'd be getting ten percent of everything I sell.I mean, this could be worth thousands guys. Jason: So it has no base salary whatsoever? Mike: Now Dad, I know this isn't going to be easy but I sure can't spend the rest of my life at that car wash. Maggie: Well Jason, what do you think? Jason: Ok, Mike. Mike: Alright, thanks guys, thanks, I gotta go change for work.Um, I can't be late, Andrew has this policy, says tardiness is unacceptable for any reason. Maggie: Who's Andrew? Jason: What's his last name? Mike: Uh [Mumbles] take it easy. Jason: What? Mike: Delish, see you later. Maggie: Delish?He wouldn't be related to Jerry High school drop out Delish, would he? Mike: Well. Jason: Or Jerry.Hi, we're both in jail Delish? Mike: Uh, actually What was the question again? Maggie: Is Andrew Delish related to that jerk that used to get you into trouble all the time? Mike: Related?Um, they're very close. Jason: How close? Mike: Same guy. Maggie: Mike didn't we forbid you to associate with Jerry Delish? Mike: Yea, but you didn't say anything about Andrew. Jason: C'mon, what's this Andrew business?Why'd he change his name? Mike: Well, I think it's kind of obvious, Dad. Jason: Yea, to throw the cops off the trail. Mike: No, no, Dad, see, he wanted to change his life around so he started with his name.I mean, Dad, he's the manager of the whole store.And you're the one who's always saying we should believe the best in people, so why not give Jerry the benefit of the doubt? Jason: Well, um, ok what do you think Maggie? Maggie: I'll agree with your decision. Jason: Alright, Mike, give it a sht. Mike: Hey, thanks a lot, Dad. Maggie: That wasn't the decision I was going to agree with. Jason: You know, if you're going to deal with the public, you'll need a nice conservative suit. Mike: Come on, Dad.I'm just selling stereos. Jason: Well, yea, but it never hurts to look sharp. Ben: Mom, were you always a woman? Maggie: No.I used to be a little girl.Ben.Oh.I told you Carol! Maggie: Jason, why did you tell Mike he could work for Jerry Delish? Jason: Well, honey after you left, I got to hear Jerry's philosophy, the road to success is hard work.And don't expect others to make it easy for you.Each of us is responsible for himself. Maggie: Really? Jason: Really.He's got Mike wanting to be prompt and dependable.Things I've been trying to make him think about for years. Maggie: Gee. Jason: If I wasn't so darn confident of myself, I might even be a little jealous. Carol: I would just like to state for the record that I never once suggested that you might have been a man. Maggie: What the heck are they watching in there, anyway? Mike: And don't forget to send your friends in. Customer: Uh, if I have a problem with my unit. Mike: Call me. Customer: I will. Boner: So, what do you think? Customer2: I think you're dangerous! Mike: Boner, what are you doing? Boner: All's I know is I got a guy looking at a couple of speakers who only wanted change for the parking meter, I say I did a lot. Mike: Look, remember what Andy says, a good salesman could sell a refrigerator to an Eskimo. Boner: Well, an Eskimo wouldn't need a Ohhh. Mike: Yea. Boner: Ok, I'll give it another sht. Mike: That's right. Jason: Hi, Boner! Boner: It's Richard here. Jason: You changed your name, too? Boner: No, it's always been Richard.I just don't use it 'cause it's a dumb sounding name. Jason: Good thinking, Boner. Boner: Hey, Mikey, look who's here. Mike: Ah, excuse me a second. Jason: Hi Mike. Mike: Ah, Boner, can you take care of my customer while I take care of my dad? Boner: Well, I'd rather sell to your dad Oh, ok. Mike: So, Dad, uh, what are you doing here? Jason: I'm just taking advantage of Stereo Village's grand opening sale. Mike: Checkin' up on me. Jason: Oh, come on, Mike.I'm not checking up on you.Ok, I'm checking up on you.So, sue me. Mike: Dad, uh... Jason: I see you took my advice about the suit. Mike: Well, yea, yea, like Andrew says, dress for success. Jason: Jerry.Uh, Andrew. Andrew: I haven't seen you since you bailed Michael and me out of jail. Jason: Yea. Mike: And that was a very long time ago, Dad. Jason: That's right. Andrew: Well, I think Michael and I have done quite a bit of growing up since then. Boner: Mikey, look who else is here! Maggie: Jason, what are you doing here? Mike: He's checking up on me, same as you. Maggie: Oh.Oh, no, no, no honey.I just happened to be shopping in the lingerie store next door. Jason: Really? Mike: Uh, Mom, you remember Jerry Delish, don't you? Maggie: That dirt bag, where is he? Andrew: It's Andrew now. Maggie: Oh my goodness, you've changed. Jason: Why? Andrew: Why?You don't know?Michael here has outsold everybody.It's his first four days. Maggie: That's wonderful, Michael, why didn't you tell us? Mike: Well, I just thought I'd surprise you. Andrew: Well, he sure did surprise me.I've never seen a harder worker. Mike: Well, look, I'd love to talk to you guys, but I have a customer over here who needs some help. Andrew: Go get him, Mike. Mike: Ok. Maggie: Heck, anybody could end up in jail. Andrew: Well, it was a pleasure to see you both. Jason: Alright.Thank you, Jerry. Maggie: Thank you, Jerry.Andrew. Jason: It's Andrew. Maggie: Thanks. Customer: Is this radio cassette/TV thing any good? Mike: Oh, yes, yes.I can't lie to you, Ed.It's really not worth the price. Ed: Yea? Mike: Yea. Jason: That's my boy! Maggie: I told you Mike taking this job was a good idea. Jason: Oh, come on, you were so unsure. Ben: It's not fair!It's not fair!It's not fair. Carol: It's not clean! Mike: Have you guys seen Mom and Dad? Ben: Mike, it's your turn to do the dishes. Mike: Not tonight, Benny.Mom?Dad? Carol: You think just because you didn't dirty any of these dishes you can get out of washing them. Mike: You're looking good tonight, Carol. Jason: Hey, Mike!We thought you'd be at work!Ben and Carol: Fired again. Mike: No, see, this is the big surprise that I was telling you about.I just got my first commission check and it was major!You guys aren't going to believe this.But, um, I thought I'd share some of the wealth with my family.Mom, Dad, and Ben, and Carol. Ben: What the heck's going on here? Mike: Just go ahead and open it. Ben: Wow!Super Veto Brothers in Wyoming.I'm gonna go play this! Carol: Mike!This is so unlike you. Mike: Yea, well, I figured you could use it while you do your aerobics. Carol: Well, I don't do aerobics. Mike: Uh huh. Maggie: It's a thesaurus program? Mike: Yea, see I figured that, um, you know when you're writing your stories and you need a word that means the same as the one you've already used you just press a button and this gives you a whole bunch of other words. Maggie: Oh, Michael, this is so sweet, thoughtful, considerate, caring. Jason: Sounds like she doesn't need a thesaurus. Maggie: I'm gonna cry, thank you. Mike: You're welcome. Jason: Mike, you amaze me. Mike: Well, thanks for believing in me, Dad.Hey, go on, go ahead, open it up. Jason: Oh, ok.Oh, hey Mike this is terrific. Mike: Yea, yea, I figured that, uh, you know you could put it in your office so that when your patients are talking you could watch some TV. Jason: I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but isn't this the model that you told that guy in the store that would be a waste of his money? Mike: Oh, yea, that was just salesmanship, Dad. Jason: I don't understand. Mike: Oh, well, see, see that's the model we use to lure them into the store.It's my job to hook em, reel em in, and get them to spend a lot more money. Maggie: Jason, would you just calm down and tell me what Mike did? Jason: What did he do?Well, he's just taken the first step on the road to Sing Sing. Maggie: Sing Sing? Jason: Yea, and you know who's going to be holding the cell door open for him. Maggie: Ben? Jason: I'm talking about Jerry Delish.And you and I were fooled to think that Jerry wasn't Jerry anymore just because he's Andrew. Maggie: Jason I can't follow you when you're ranting. Jason: I do not rant. Maggie: Oh, no, no, no.Of course you don't. Jason: And don't just say what I want to hear. Maggie: Ok, then, you are getting incredibly carried away and so far you haven't told me what has gotten you so upset. Jason: Alright, here it is.It's the Delish philosophy.Tardiness is unacceptable for any reason.The road to success is hard work.And get this one, each of us is responsible for himself.Mike's buying that a hundred percent. Maggie: Jason do you think perhaps you were on to something last week when you might be a little jealous of Andrew's influence Jason: Oh, I was completely off base and frankly, I don't even know why you would listen to me. Maggie: Ok. Jason: Maggie, you're saying ok, but your eyes are saying jealous. Jason: Alright, have you ever heard of something called bait and switch? Maggie: Andrew does that? Jason: Mike, too! Maggie: Oh, no! Jason: Yes! Maggie: Well, I'd like a word with that Andrew, uh, Jerry!And Mike! Jason: Well, I'd like a word with all three of them.Mike I'd like to talk to you before you whoa.Look at this room! Mike: What's wrong with it? Jason: It's clean. Mike: Yea. Jason: This another one of Andrew's suggestions? Mike: He says the more organized you are, the better. Jason: Oh, I'll bet. Mike: What, you don't want me to clean my room? Jason: Well, yea, but for the right reasons! Mike: Yea, uh, Dad, listen I got to get back to the store.Andrew says I can't. Jason: Will you just sit down please? Mike: No, see, the only reason I came home was because I got a stain on my suit.And I ... Jason: Will you sit?You know what you're doing down there? Mike: Well, not at first, but now it's kind of fun, I like it.I mean. Jason: No, no, I'm talking about when you tell a customer that something he wants to buy is junk to get him to spend more?It's called bait and switch.It's a con.It's a crime. Mike: Now hold on, wait a minute.Dad, now that guy was free to buy anything in the store, he didn't have to listen to me. Jason: But, Mike, you lied to him. Mike: Dad, I just nudged him towards some merchandise that we needed to move. Jason: Mike, you're lying to people.People are more important than your sales quotas. Jason: So? Mike: So, did you tell the salesperson that the transmission was sht? Jason: Yes, I did. Mike: You did? Jason: Yea! Mike: Ok, alright, how about the taxes?Alright, now everybody fudges a little bit on their taxes, right? Jason: Not me. Mike: Oh, Dad, Dad.There's a whole world going on out there that you don't know anything about. Jason: Don't pity your father, ok? Mike: I'm not.I'm not.I'm just saying that, you get up in the morning; you walk across the living room and into your office.I men, you never even go outside. Jason: Oh, really?Well, who do you think brings in the morning paper?You think it just walks in here by itself?I'm outside every day! Mike: So what's your point?You gonna make me quit, right? Jason: Oh, you bet I'm... No, I'd like to, as much as I'd like to, I'm not. Mike: You're not? Jason: No. Mike: Why not? Jason: Because you're too old for me to make you do anything. Mike: I am? Jason: I can't be looking over your should all your life, Mike. Mike: Uh-huh. Jason: You got to learn that the only one responsible for you is you. Mike: Yea, that's exactly what Andrew says! Jason: Better. Boner: Mikey, is Main St.up three blocks or four? Mike: Four. Boner: Hey, great.Four blocks, it's on the corner, Senor Stereo, you can't miss it. Customer (Husband): Oh, great.Thanks a lot. Boner: Hey, my pleasure. Customer (Wife): If your hadn't of told us, we would have wasted all that money here. Mike: Boner, what are you doing? Boner: Oh, they needed a whole new stereo system. Mike: Boner, that's what we sell here. Boner: I know that, but Senor Stereo's having this Call me Loco sale.Listen, they just got married, so they're kind of broke. Mike: Bone, that's not your problem. Boner: Mikey, if I would have stuck them with our prices, I would have felt like a thief. Mike: Who you calling a thief? Boner: Nobody.I can't hook em, I can't reel em in.You know how much I like fish. Mike: Boner, you got to straighten up your act, man.Look at you here.What is this? Boner: My shorts.I couldn't find a handkerchief. Andrew: Michael, when you get a chance, I need to talk to you. Mike: Yea, sure, Andrew.So, what can I do for you? Andrew: I just want to let you know, Michael, I think you're doing a one heck of a job. Mike: Hey, thanks. Andrew: You know, I'm really proud of you. Mike: Well, I learned from you. Andrew: What did you do this week in commissions? Mike: Ah, $350. Andrew: What did Boner do? Mike: Ah, well, you know he's working real hard out there. Andrew: Mike, you know, I've known Boner a long time, almost as long as I've known you.As well as I know Boner, I also know he doesn't have it. Mike: Well, maybe he's just nervous, I mean maybe he just got so much of it, he doesn't know what to do with it. Andrew: Michael, you've made $350.Boner has made $3.62. Mike: Is that net or gross? Andrew: His net is gross. Mike: C'mon, c'mon, Jer.Just give the guy a break.I mean, he's trustworthy and good hearted, but that guy couldn't tell a lie if his life depended on it. Andrew: Mike, you know what it takes to sell.But can you honestly tell me that Boner's gonna have that k*ller instinct?Now, I know you're a little closer to him than I am so I thought I'd ask you if you wanted to tell him. Mike: Tell him what? Andrew: Well, he's gone. Mike: What? Andrew: Hey, this is business.You want to tell him? Mike: Me? Andrew: It's closing time, somebody's got to.I just thought he'd take it better from you. Customer: So, uh, how many watts per channel is this? Mike: Huh?Oh, um, 40 watts.Listen we've got a few minutes before closing and why don't you think it over and I'll be right back. Boner: Here is your diode.And your recent for a buck twenty's in the bag.Enjoy!That's twelve more cents right in my pocket. Customer: Excuse me, do you carry the Thunderclap Two System? Mike: Uh, yea, yea.We got it. Customer: And? Boner: Oh, that's expensive. Mike: Right this way sir. Andrew: Michael, it's almost closing time. Mike: Yea, I know, I know, Jer.Just give him a minute, he's about to move the highest priced system in the store. Boner: You're right, it is this way. Mike: Oh, come on, just for old time's sake, alright?I mean, I mean, he's your buddy, too. Andrew: There's a time for buddies and there's a time for business. Customer: I can't thank you enough. Boner: Hey, tell a friend. Mike: Boy, that was quick.Well, uh, we'd be happy to help you load your components into your car for you, sir. Customer: No, I can wait.The Bone here tipped me to the Thunderclap Two's gonna be on sale next week.I'll wait until then. Boner: Hey, see you then, Maurice. Customer: Hey! Boner: So, who else is up for fish and chips, huh? Andrew: Mr.Bone. Mike: Uh, no, wait.Um, I need a moment with Andrew, please. Boner: Sure thing. Mike: Come on, Jer.Just give him one more chance. Mike: So, what do we do, we just dust Bone?Because he's cause he's Boner? Andrew: No, because he can't sell.He's not like us, Mike.He's too concerned with the customer and whether they can afford the stuff. Mike: So, what's wrong with that? Andrew: Mike if you couldn't get rid of this stuff, I'd get rid of you. Mike: But we're buddies. Andrew: This is a business. Mike: But that's... That's wrong. Andrew: What are you talking about? Mike: I'm just saying that people are more important than your sales quotas. Andrew: Who's been handing you that garbage? Mike: Who?I'll tell you who.Somebody who knows a heck of a lot about the real world out there.You know, somebody who always seems to be right and it's really beginning to get me tense.You know, I think I might as well just quit this job right now because that's what he thinks I should do.And it's probably what I'm gonna end up doing, so I'll just save you the time, huh? Andrew: Hey, Mike.Mike!Mikey! Mike: Hey, folks!Senor Stereo's got this exact same stuff for half the price.And they care about their customers.Adios, Jer.I thought you wanted some fish. Boner: Oooo!See you tomorrow, Jer. Mike: Alright, alright, where is he? Maggie: Where's who? Mike: Dad. Maggie: Oh, he went for a long walk, he was pretty upset with you, Mike. Mike: He's upset with me?Well, I'm upset with me.And him, both of us! Maggie: Why? Mike: Why?Do you have any idea of what a rotten thing he did to me earlier tonight? Maggie: No, what? Mike: Nothing.Yea, nothing.He knew what a major mistake I was going to make and he left it up to me to figure out. Maggie: Would you prefer that we monitor your every move?	{"type": "series", "show": "Growing Pains", "episode": "03x03 - Taking Care of Business"}	foreverdreaming
