"I had a right to know." "I failed the medical boards." "That's pretty embarrassing." "I'm pregnant, you blind moron." "Can we please just talk?" "You're too busy screwing nurses to talk." "I never wanted to hurt you." "Sometimes I think we'd be better off with dogs." "I said down!" "Izzie!" "Izzie!" "ËüÕý¸ú×ÅÎÒ... fresh starts-- thanks to the calendar, they happen every year."

"listen up,people, new year,new rules." "Or should I say,new year, we will be enforcing the rules mandated by the residency review committee" "There were too many mistakes made last year." "Fatigue played too big a role." "Exceeding 80 hours of work per week will not be tolerated... does that mean we actually get to have a life?" "I think so."

"Excuse me?" "You've exceeded your 80-hour limit for the week." "You have to leave the hospital." "Okay,um,um,as soon as the mesothelioma's dissected out." "Dr. Yang,now." "You heard him." "denny duquette." "Hey,dr." "Bailey." "I hope seeing you here means they finally found you a heart." "No offense,doctor,but I'm not a big fan of hospitals." "It'd take something pretty special to get me in here." "And what do we know about mr." "Duquette?" "Capricorn,single, loves to travel and cook." "Denny,be quiet." "Let her show off." "Denny duquette,36,admitted today for a heart transplant necessitated by a viral cardiomyopathy." "and what does that mean?" "That his heart is unable to fill and pump blood normally." "Good."

"110,120 hours suited me just fine." "I learned more, cause I worked more." "Well,at least this way,you get to rest before you have the baby." "I mean,being that pregnant, keeping up this pace... what are you saying, I look tired,o'malley?" "No,not--not tired,no." "You look fresh,spry." "You glow." "What... stop now." "O'malley,go do an intake on addison shepherd's patient." "addison." "You do glow." "Like the moon." "And you can spend the day in the pit,karev." "I'm just trying to make a point."

"Rebecca's been admitted for-- -could you stop calling me that?" "She prefers bex, not rebecca." "Bex has been admitted for an ultrasound guided biopsy on an enlargement of a pelvic lymph node." "Okay." "Bex,you mind if I check it out?" "Okay,I'll just,um... it's a minor procedure,bex." "But we'll give you a local anesthetic to manage the pain." "What are you drawing?" "Just a dumb comic." "You're really talented." "It's big,I know." "It just appeared one day." "I'll perform a biopsy this morning, and dr." "O'malley will have to take some blood so he can run some tests" "And then we can start to get you some answers,okay?" "Mrs. Singleton, there's no need to panic."

"Mr. Paskowitz, we've located the source of your abdominal pain." "There." "It's called a bezoar." "Bezoar,huh?" "It's a clump of foreign matter that couldn't be expelled with a prokinetic agent" "I love it.In a hospital, a laxative is a prokinetic agent." "So what,you just go up his butt and grab it?" "Baby,please." "Actually,we won't be able to reach it that way We'll have to get it from here" "So,mauer,tell me what you've been eating." "Garbage." "Absolute garbage." "Could you be more specific?" "Tell him what you ate,mauer." "He's a writer, suffering for his art." "Okay." "He ate his novel." "Uh,I'm sorry." "What?" "I ate my novel,okay?" "The whole damn thing."

"Talk to her again." "She hasn't hit puberty yet." "Isn't it weird she'd be having sex?" "These days,dr." "O'malley, it's not that unusual." "Talk to the patient." "Derek." "Hi,morning,richard." "You busy?" "No." "My surgery just got canceled." "Why?" "I need a favor." "Sure." "Hey,bex." "Your mom and dad... food." "Great." "Beause I wanted to talk to you."

"Boobs,dude." "You...were trying to make your breasts grow?" "I wanted to be normal for once in my life." "Is this what caused the tumor?" "No,no." "The pill wouldn't have any effect on your lymph nodes, but the amount that you were taking is really dangerous, and it caused a pretty major hormonal imbalance."

"It looks like the tumor is compressing an ovary." "Yeah,that's why I biopsied both ovaries." "Is that bad?" "It's really just a precaution,bex." "Want to apply pressure,dr." "O'malley?" "Mm-hmm." "I'm gonna get this up to path." "You mind doing the dressings?" "sure." "All right,bex, we'll get you the results just as soon as possible." "You're a doctor." "Haven't you seen scars before?" "I was just trying to figure out why someone with so much talent would want to do that." "It's just a comic book." "It's about me and my best friend jenn when we were kids." "Satisfied?" "Does she write it with you?" "Jenn has a boyfriend, like everyone else." "I get to be a freak all by myself." "Oh,a freak?" "That's not the easiest thing to be in high school,is it?" "You sound like my shrink." "Hey,I wasn't always a doctor." "In high school..." "I was secretary and treasurer of..." "the dungeons  dragons club." "Oh,man." "Yeah." "I was also a mathlete." "And I won the blue ribbon in biology club." "Best fetal pig dissection." "Ah,let me tell you,that had the girls knocking down my door." "You just have to get through high school." "Because high school sucks for anyone who's the least bit different." "But then there's college, and then out in the real world, you'll find where you fit in." "You think so?" "Yeah,I know so." "Hi." "Denny.I thought you were asleep." "Nah." "I don't sleep in hospitals." "Scared I'll never wake up." "Can I ask you something personal?" "If I say no?" "I'll hold my breath, which will stop my heart, killing me." "And you're right here, you'll be charged with murder." "A lifetime in prison being loved by a big old girl named hilde." "So my choicesare homicide charges or inappro priate personal questions from a patient?" "I know,it kinda sucks." "You know what?" "Hold your breath." "I'll take my chances with hilde." "I can do girl on girl." "Oh,see,you're bringing up girl on girl." "How can I blackmail you if you bring up girl on girl?" "What do you want to know?" "That guy alex, you with him?" "No,not anymore, and never,ever again." "Good." "Good?" "Yeah,good." "It means I won't have to fight him for you." "What makes you think I want you to fight him for me?" "Hello." "You are in love with me." "Am I?" "Yeah." "It's not your fault." "I mean,I'm well-off, but I'm not into money," "I'm smart, but I'm not a know-it-all," "I'm funny, I'm--I'm really nice" "I love animals 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 I.V. Meds." "you're right." "I am so in love with you." "It's a shame,really, since I'm with hilde and all." "there-- five loads of laundry." "I have literally washed the past out of my life." "You paged me?" "Yeah." "Have a look at this." "It's bex' biopsy." "Biopsied ovary?" "Not exactly." "Arrange a meeting with bex' parents,george." "and find out who the on call psychiatrist is if they're available to join us." "Does she have cancer?" "No." "It's not an ovary, it's a testis." "A testis?" "Are you sure?" "Yes,I'm sure." "Bex is a hermaphrodite?" "Yes." "Yang... why are you staring at my fat,pregnant belly?" "Sorry." "I... 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?" "That-- how is that possible?" "I-I don't understand." "I don't understand how that-- sh-shouldn't this have been detected somehow?" "Externally,bex has female genitalia." "She looks like a girl." "But internally,she has both female and male sex organs." "So what now?" "What are we supposed to do?" "I-I don't understand-- okay,the best news is that the lymph node tumor is benign." "So physically,bex is going to be just fine, but emotionally, psychologically," "I strongly recommend therapy." "she's already in therapy." "I'm talking about therapy for all of you." "This is not gonna be easy for bex to hear, and it's not gonna be an easy adjustment for you to make." "Oh,my god." "A big adjustment, what kind of adjustment?" "Many intersexed people begin to identify very strongly with one sex, and it's not necessarily the sex they've been raised." "She's a girl." "She looks like a girl." "She has always been a girl." "This at least helps explain why she feels so different." "The point is,biologically and emotionally speaking, she has a choice to make." "A choice?" "My mouth feels all weird." "Chewing paper will have that effect,lover." "Weird how?" "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." "Is he always this way?" "The man ate a novel." "He's not exactly normal." "But he got weirder,the more he ate." "He's,like,obsessed." "Mr. Paskowitz, I'm dr." "Webber." "I'm gonna be performing your surgery today." "I poured my heart and soul into that freakin' book, and now it's stuck up my ass." "Put that on my tombstone,audrey." "On my tombstone!" "Hey,dr." "Stevens." "Hey,denny." "You okay?" "I've been waiting for this a long time,you know?" "You open up my chest,take out my heart, and replace it with another one." "Well,not me, and not another heart, a better heart." "what if something goes wrong?" "Don't be nervous." "Dr. Burke is an incredible surgeon." "And you're getting a new heart today." "Just keep thinking about that." "Okay,okay." "Denny." "Preston burke--my favorite cardiothoracic surgeon." "You're only cardiothoracic surgeon,but thanks." "I'll be on the phone with dr." "Bailey as the organ recovery progresses." "We'll make sure that the heart stays viable, isn't damaged as the other organs are perfused." "We'll have you in the O.R.," "And if it is a go, we start the procedure before she even gets back." "Hey,izzie." "Yeah." "I'm gettin' a new heart." "You're getting a new heart." "I'll see you." "Bye." "um,excuse me." "Um,mary and I were talking, and,uh,we think bex should stay-- she can't handle something like this." "You saw the scars." "Wait,you're not gonna tell her?" "But this could help her." "You can't not tell her who she is." "Dr. O'malley." "Uh,we'll go ahead and proceed with the scheduled surgery to remove the tumor, and then you can talk to your daughter in your own time." "Actually,we're thinking... we thought, since you're already gonna be in there,uh... we know "fixed"" "isn't the right word,but-- we were thinking that with the hormonal confusion, it might be easier on her to remove whatever boy parts she has." "Keep her more of a girl." "Just to be clear,you're asking me to perform sexual reassignment surgery on your daughter?" "yes." "Without her knowing?" "all she's said all her life is that she wants to be normal." "She doesn't feel normal." "Why can't we just put an end to her agony?" "Well,first of all,removing her male sexual organs may not do that." "In fact, it could do just the opposite." "but her hormones-- can be controlled with an oral medication." "We just want the best for bex." "To do surgery and alter her body permanently is-- well,I just would never do that on someone who's unaware of the procedure, and you're gonna be hard pressed to find a surgeon who will." "Bex will learn the truth... someday." "H-how do you want her to find out?" "Excuse me." "Meredith,hi." "Hi." "I had the morning off, so I thought I would come and see how my mother's doing." "Oh,she's fine." "She's in the sitting room." "Thanks." "She's in good spirits." "Visitors really cheer her up." "visitors?" "what are you doing here?" "There is a clinical trial to study the progression of early-onset alzheimer'S." "Okay,me,you can screw with." "My mother?" "No,not acceptable." "Look,there's been some really promising results from similar studies in europe." "Your mother is a prime candidate." "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." "I'm just trying to help." "Well,see,this,what you're doing, being dreamy, it doesn't help." "It hurts me." "It messes with my head." "I know the feeling." "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." "Yeah." "No,she doesn'T." "That's what I thought." "Dr. Burke." "Talk to me,bailey." "What are we looking at?" "The,uh,the donor is on 25 mics of dopamine." "25 mics?" "That's too much." "They've started him on 5 mics of dobutamine 30 minutes prior to arrival." "Are they trying to kill my heart?" "What is his central venous pressure now?" "C.V.P.,Doctor?" "Back around 10" "Around 10." "Map close to 80." "And his mean arterial pressure?" "Close to 80." "I can live with a C.V.P. As low as 5,a map about 60." "That heart needs to be off dobutamine." "The heart needs to be off dobutamine." "And tell them to get the dopamine back down to 10 mics and get them to get another 2 units of blood." "We a go,doc?" "Still no final word." "I want you to have the healthiest heart I can find." "Dr. Stevens,you'll be in there with us,right?" "Yeah,I'll be in there with you." "all right,people." "We're going to be removing a clump of foreign matter lodged hey,aren't you supposed to be having free time?" "Oh,I did five loads of laundry, cut my split ends,studied, cleaned out the fridge." "Free time sucks." "When would have been the right time to hear about your boyfriend's wife?" "Okay,are you mad at me or something?" "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 know sooner than later?" "I mean,so you can move forward one way or the other." "I mean,it's a fresh start,right?" "See the white line of toldt?" "Now we can mobilize the lateral border the lateral border of the left colon.Clamp." "When leo tolstoy here wakes up, you might get him to revisit the idea of a new vocation." "He's pretty against the idea." "Yeah,well,hopefully, it was just delirium." "If it's all right,I'd like to keep an extra eye on him post-op." "He's acting pretty strange." "He ate a novel." "Clearly,he's pretty strange." "Yeah,you know,it's just," "I don't want to overlook anything." "Seriously,karev," "I'm short-handed all over the hospital." "Okay,here we go." "Anybody here tempted to read this?" "No takers?" "Could be the great american novel." "We'll never know." "He needs a plan "B."" "He may not be the only one." "You don't think you passed?" "I thought I passed the first time." "Well,let's wait and see." "Right now,today, you're still here." "Did you tell my parents about the pill?" "No." "Am I gonna die?" "Is that what no one wants to tell me?" "Of course not." "Then why are my parents acting so... will you just tell me what's going on?" "What's going on is,uh, we're prepping you for surgery to remove the lymph node tumor that's compressing your... ovary." "Hey,bex." "How you doin'?" "Mom,dad,this is really freaking me out." "Oh,no,everything's gonna be fine,bex." "It's okay,sweetie." "I'm having surgery to remove a tumor that's compressing my ovary, right,george?" "Dr. O'malley." "George?" "What,am I just supposed to lie to her?" "Okay." "That's enough." "Dr. O'malley,please leave the room." "No,wait." "Tell me what's wrong with me." "What is wrong with me?" "Bex... we learned that your tumor, it's not compressing an ovary." "Then where is it?" "It's on a testes." "Like a testicle?" "I have testicles?" "yes,one." "Bex,this is a tremendous amount of information for you-- and I've had it my whole life." "Oh,my god." "Does this mean... does this mean I could be a boy?" "You engineered that conversation." "You forced our hand." "Well,you were lying to her." "We were protecting her." "She's a 14-year-old girl." "Maybe." "Maybe not." "This isn't your life." "This isn't your child." "14 years--14 years, we have raised a daughter, and in one afternoon, you expect us to--what?" "What is bex supposed to do?" "How is she supposed to go home and tell the other kids--what?" "You had no right." "No,I know." "I'm off the case,right?" "Ohh Mauer" "Mauer,lay back." "You just had surgery." "You're losing your shirt,man." "Much obliged,brock-- brock-- much obliged,pal." "How are you feeling,mauer?" "Much obliged.What's whacked for $20,alex?" "Weeds whacked." "Weeds." "Weeds whacked for $200." "W-way--way whacked." "Wh" "I saw ellis." "And?" "I think I can get her into the clinical trial." "She's a perfect candidate." "Excellent." "Thank you,derek." "You realize this requires meredith's power of attorney." "Yeah." "It might be better if it's coming from you." "With me,there's baggage." "You,you're just trying to help out a friend." "Right." "Right." "Well,let me know if meredith wants me to make the call." "Karev... what are you doing?" "Research on the bezoar patient." "I told you I needed you on the floor." "He has fever,sweats,tingling in his lips, fingers and toes, mood swings and lack of coordination." "And did I mention the crazy talk?" "Your point?" "Well,my point is,he ate his novel." "I know." "Mercury's in the paper." "He's got mercury poisoning." "Cristina,call burke." "I'm feeling some fairly extensive damage from coronary artery disease." "Um... yang." "talk to me,bailey." "it's me." "I can't talk." "I'm waiting on a call from bailey." "I'm with bailey." "You're in idaho?" "Yeah." "You're breaking the rules." "Yes." "Preston,what's happening with our heart?" "Hello,dr." "Webber." "Tell me what I need to know about denny's heart,dr." "Bailey." "thank you." "This program derek looked into was a favor to me." "Nice try." "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 it." "Lying here trapped in this flesh prison," "I have reached a grim conclusion." "I am a failure." "You know how that feels?" "Dude,if you only knew." "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." "Well,we make a mistake here and people die." "It happens all the time." "All the time?" "Well,it happens a lot." "This is part of the hallucination,right?" "My point is,we all have setbacks,mauer." "But I'm a doctor,and you're a writer." "We don't have a plan "B."" "Call security." "Have you determined a course of treatment for the mercury poisoning,dr." "Karev?" "Yeah,the patient has been administered a chelator called british anti-leukocyte, which will absorb the mercury over the next several days." "Good work,doctor." "Yang... 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 dangerous." "80-hour work week, that's what's on your mind?" "I thought about it... not keeping it." "You did?"
