"[ Sighs ]" "I have not had sex in a long time." "[ Sighs ]" "You're preaching to the choir, sister." "The clot in her left leg meant there must be a hole in her heart." "[ Computer beeping ]" "Through which the clot in her leg, with help from pressure changes during very good sex, traveled from the right to the left chamber of her heart, on up to her brain." "Now I just have to plug the hole like... this." "Amelia:" "Nice catch, doctor." "Or should I say... ¶ Chief of cardiothoracic surgery ¶ oh, dear god." "You heard." "[ Amelia chuckles ]" "Your parents sound like very sweet people." "They are." "They're very sweet and very funny and nothing at all like me." "No understanding of what I do or why I like doing it." "Oh, I know that feeling." "I always felt like the odd man out." "I have three sisters and a brother." "They are all very put together, and I... kind of a mess." "It wasn't until I met Meredith" "I had a sister I could relate to." "Really?" "Not at first." "You know?" "She's... hard to get to know, but she's worth knowing." "Really." "Dr. Pierce." "Dr. Bailey..." "You are not on..." "On your service." "Yes." "Dr. Bailey asked to see you when you're finished." "[ Computer beeping ] I apprehended the culprit." "Raf1 mutation right there." "That little orange bastard caused Robbie's cardiomyopathy." "Raf1." "Since when?" "Well, it was just isolated a month ago by a doctor in Australia, and the screening panel was updated last week." "So, until a week ago." "We didn't know what caused cardiomyopathy." "Is this what you wanted?" "Yes!" "Genetic profiling is a rapidly growing science." "New findings crop up every single day." "For example, three months ago, there were only 33 known genetic causes for cardiomyopathy." "Today, there are 34." "This right here..." "This is the genetic mutation that gave your kids cardiomyopathy." "Sabine:" "That's what made our kids sick?" "Yes." "There's..." "So it isn't our house." "It isn't the water." "It isn't anything, uh, we did." "It wasn't me." "No, sabine, it wasn't you." "Sabine." "[ Sniffles ] Everything that you have done has made your kids healthier and safer." "You did everything you could." "Dr. Yang did everything she could." "No one could have known about this." "Okay." "Why..." "Why did you keep looking?" "I just..." "When I find a puzzle, it's very hard for me to put it down." "[ Cellphone chimes, vibrates ]" "Son of a bitch." "I'm sorry." "I-I got to go." "Thank you." "Sabine:" "Thank you so much." "[ Rapid beeping ]" "I need that crash cart in here!" "Wait." "Wait." "Wait, wait." "Wait for what?" "Get off." "I got it!" "I got her!" "You got to go harder than that, Pierce." "She's my patient." "I know what she can take." "Okay, let me in." "I have to shock her." "I have this." "Pierce, you're not helping her." "Dr. Grey, she can't take the defibrillation." "I got this." "Marjorie." "You're all right." "You're okay." "I'm here with you." "It's okay." "Pierce, you're letting her die." "Pierce." "You're okay." "Pierce!" "It's okay." "[ Beeping continues ]" "You're okay." "[ Flatline ]" "Time of death." "Time of death, Dr. Grey." "Nurse, what is the time?" "20:42." "Time of death..." "20:42." "Owen: [ In distance ] Pierce." "Pierce." "Pierce, hold up." "Chief." "I just wanted to say thank you for what you did for the mcneils." "You gave them..." "Some peace." "And [Sighs] I'm glad you're here, so... thank you." "You and Yang did all the hard work." "I just got to bring it over the finish line." "Meredith:" "Chief." "I think you should know that Dr. Pierce just slow-coded a patient right in front of me." "What?" "Grey, that is a..." "I watched it happen." "She deliberately withheld care from a coding patient." "Her cpr was totally ineffectual and she would not let me defibrillate." "Slow down." "Dr. Grey." "You let that woman die." "Grey, slow down!" "Pierce." "Dr. Grey has been doubting my effectiveness and undermining my authority since the minute I got here." "Maybe I'm being judged too harshly against my predecessor or maybe she just doesn't like me, but I can only say to her what I will say to my patient's family..." "I did everything in my power as a physician to help her, but I am sorry to say she's gone." "Are we finished, chief?" "For now." "Grey, wait." "If you want to get me fired, go ahead." "I don't care." "If you want to tell that woman what I did, fine." "But tell her the whole truth." "Her mother begged me in no uncertain terms to end her suffering naturally." "She would have signed papers to that effect, but her daughter wouldn't allow her to." "Her daughter was too scared to realize that she was keeping her alive and in agony." "I did what my patient and I decided was in her best interest." "You look me in the eye and tell me you wouldn't have done the same thing." "Jeannie:" "Is she all right, my mother?" "I went for dinner and some errands, but when I came..." "Jeannie." "I'm sorry." "Your mother's heart stopped again, and I..." "I..." "Dr. Pierce did everything in her power." "Despite all our efforts and capabilities, we weren't able to save your mother." "I am very sorry for your loss." "[ Crying ]" "I'm saying that I think you're right." "You know, maybe this is something that I can give up so that we can have, you know..." "Hey." "How's she doing?" "Oh, um, no signs of cyanosis or congestive heart failure." "So far, so good." "Nice work." "You, too." "You should go see her." "[ Monitor beeping ] Thank you, doctor." "So?" "So, I'm gonna pass on the fellowship." "No, you're not." "You can't." "What?" "Look, I was wrong this morning." "This isn't a sacrifice that you should have to make." "We can figure this out." "If it makes you happy, that will benefit our kid..." "Kids more than anything." "So, you think I should do it?" "I think you have to." "[ Gasps ] [ Laughs ]" "Oh!" "Thank you." "Goodnight, Dr. Robbins, Dr. torres." "Where... where's the baby?" "Is the baby..." "The baby's fine." "She's beautiful." "[ Sighs deeply ]" "Thanks to you, she's fine." "Maggie:" "I'll let you know as soon as you can go see her." "Looks like a full recovery, and we found her parents, Sherlock." "They're on their way in from Arizona." "Can I ask you guys something?" "We just hooked up the one time, but I wanted to ask her out because she was really cool, you know, before she went all derp." "Should I hang out till she wakes up, or does that make me look, like, clingy?" "[ Elevator bell dings ]" "Um, that's... sweet." "Well..." "I was once the girl who went home with the guy she met an hour ago." "If this had been me, you would be the last person I'd want to see." "Oh." "Okay." "Yeah, maybe run into her at the gym." "Maybe learn her last name." "Maybe invite her to dinner." "Yeah." "Can I have your number?" "Go." "Go." "Most puzzles come down to one last missing piece of information." "Whether it's the answer to a medical mystery..." "Pierce figured out what happened to the mcneil kids?" "Mm-hmm." "That's surprising." "She solved it." "She did what Yang couldn't do, and she hates me." "Hi." "[ Gasps ]" "I finished your post-ops." "Anything else?" "You don't take no for an answer." "So you're insubordinate, as well as everything else." "No." "No?" "No." "I am not insubordinate or untrustworthy." "I think we got off to a bad start." "I made a mistake." "I should have told you the whole story." "But I came here to learn, and I learned a crap ton from you today, so I decided I deserved a second chance, and you weren't gonna give me one, so I gave myself one." "Or to the question of who you are, where you fit..." "Is this your thunder?" "Yeah." "All right, Wilson." "I'll see you in the morning." "You called me by my name." "I did." "You keep checking your watch." "Did you write my name on your wrist?" "I did." "I appreciate the effort." "It all comes down to that last piece." "Grey, wait." "Can I talk to you?" "Tomorrow." "I'm heading home." "There's something I should tell you." "You know what?" "I've heard enough." "It's fine." "We're fine." "You're fine." "My mother was Ellis Grey." "That's why the final piece of a Jigsaw puzzle is so satisfying to place." "I know." "I'm sorry." "We..." "This isn't fair to you." "And we got off to a bad start, but I'm here to work." "And if I'm gonna be here, I got to be who I am." "So I need you to know the whole story." "I was put up for adoption in Boston." "In Boston?" "Yes." "And I was adopted by a very nice couple... an amazing couple." "They are my parents, but my mother... my mother..." "I found out a year ago." "My mother is your mother, Ellis Grey." "Unless, of course, the piece doesn't quite fit." "What do you want?" "What?" "What are you after here?" "I know it sounds like..." "You're five years younger than me." "If my mother were pregnant, I would have known." "You're wrong." "Just..." "Or you're lying." "What?" "What?" "Just listen." "Stay away from me."
