"Or will she have to carry around one of those toilet seats for the rest of her life?" "She'll have full use of her butt in a few weeks." "I am so,so honored to be filling in for you as captain." "You're filling in for me as captain?" "I prayed on it,and god seems to think it's the right move." "Oh,okay." "Oh,and I don't want youo worry." "I called randy,and I think I might have convinced him to still take you to homecoming even though your face and your butt's all messed up." "I bet he'll take you." "He's classy that way." "Okay,so now that we've established that randy's a classy guy,visiting time is over." "Bye,sweetie." "I hope they don't ruin your face." "Go!" "Kinda sucks,huh?" "little manicured vultures."

"Yeah,but even so,those cliques,they're miserable." "He just needs to know it passes eventually." "sorry,Dr. Shepherd." "What's so funny?" "I'm just not sure we've come as far as you'd like to think,clique-wise." "We?" "The hospital." "You think the hospital's clique-y?" "Oh,damn it." "The artery's burst." "His brain is swelling." "It's cutting off blood supply." "Okay,push 80 grams of mannitol." "Okay,let's go." "How do I tell his best friend that he's gonna be in a coma for the rest of his life?"

"I mean,look what I have to put up with." "They're crying. like,actual real tears." "'cause they're so worried about danny,which would be fine if they knew who danny was." "whatever." "Can I see him?" "He hasn't woken up yet." "But he's okay?" "As soon as I know something,I'll let you know." "Okay." "you think she'll recover full function of her knee?" "I hope so,'cause if she doesn't get back on the pom-pom brigade,her life is totally over." "Man,you'd think the way they treat her,she'd be ready to ditch the whole thing,but no." "Of course she's not gonna walk away from that." "It's her life." "It's her identity." "It's the only way she understands herself in the world." "I heard one of the,uh,sweet young things told mark he looked like her dad today." "harsh." "What does that have to do with anything?" "Well,you just seem really empathetic to her plight,you know?" "Loss of identity,shattered self-image." "You seem pretty happy about what happened to her." "No." "she's just happy 'cause stevens and o'malley hit the skids." "didn't I tell you not to tell anybody?" "I pulled all the x-rays for tomorrow's scheduled surgeries." "And what am i supposed to do with them?" "Oh,I thought I could put them in the O.R. If you needed me to." "Well,I don'T." "Back off." "What?" "You're being a brownnoser." "I'm helping her." "No,you're annoying her." "You got a chance to show her what you can do,and now you're blowing it." "And trust me,these kinds of chances do not come around all the time." "So,you know,just back off." "I'm sorry I didn't know you when you were in high school." "I've regretted it every day,not knowing you." "Sometimes I still worry about you." "Then other times I think,you know,maybe that's what made you so strong." "Not an excuse." "Not at all." "But you are so strong." "Gosh." "You're stronger than lexie." "I don't know her that well." "true." "You're a very impressive person,meredith." "I'm so proud of you." "I'm a lifetime." "lifetime's worth of proud." "anyway." "How was your date with sydney?" "Oh,I was wondering when you were gonna bring that up." "My dad's in the E.R." "Really?" "He cut himself." "He's not bad company,actually." "He's quite funny and charming. drunk." "Is it weird that I like my drunk dad better than my regular dad?" "A little." "are you okay?" "Yeah." "I,um." "but my patient's in a coma,and he's never gonna wake up again." "His best friend isn the waiting area." "The poor thing thinks he'S." "she thinks he's gonna wake up any second." "I don'know." "I don't believe it." "Who told you?" "Henry." "He was observing in,uh,sloan's surgery, and he said that sloan announced it to the whole O.R." "O'malley and stevens are done." "Yeah." "They didn't even last a week." "I know." "Can I have the key back to my house?" "Hey." "What?" "The key to my house,I want it back." "I heard we broke up,so I want it back." "Can I have it please?" "Um,you know right now I don't have any idea what you're talking about?" "Really?" "Apparently everyone's talking about the fact that we broke up." "Who have you been talking to,george?" "Nobody." "I mean,I talked to meredith." "See,I knew it." "What do you mean,you knew it?" "You been talking to her?" "Yeah,but only after you were talking to her." "So,uh,I'm not the only one who talked to her then." "You talked to her first." "What is my dad doing here?" "Your dad came in drunk this morning." "That's what I was trying to tell you earlier when you blew me off." "So. so you run to meredith?" "The one person that I asked you not to tell?" "I was trying to help,okay?" "Right." "You know,you haven't changed." "I mean,not even one bit." "You get this very intense look on your face when you're serious,you know?" "It's your serious,home-work-doin' face." "Hasn't changed." "Dr. Bailey, is that a patient form I see in your hand?" "Yes,I suppose it is." "Patients are supposed to fill out patient forms." "You have work to do,your own work." "Yes,sir." "mandi?" "Mandi?" "Mandi,I'm not." "I'm not feeling so." "marcus?" "Marcus?" "Pulse-ox is dropping." "Pressure is 82 over 48." "Tell radiology we need a stat spiral C.T. And page Dr. Hahn." "Dr. Shepherd." "Marissa." "I know danny's parents aren't gonna be here for a couple more hours, but could I at least see him?" "Please." "all right,come on." "Let's. let's go sit down." "See,the,uh." "when I removed the pencil,the artery burst." "When the brain swells that much,it has nowhere to go." "The hemor." "I am getting two cups of coffee." "two. one for me,one for my dad." "He's here." "What's wrong with you?" "At this exact moment in O.R. Two,Dr. Hahn is performing a pulmonary embolectomy." "A pulmonary embolectomy,meredith." "So what's the problem?" "You're on her service." "Just go." "No,I can't because that will make me a brownnoser,and everybody hates brownnosers." "I cannot be a brownnoser." "Okay." "So." "there'll be other embolectomies." "You can let this one slide?" "No,no,no." "No,I can't!" "I don't know how to just let a pulmonary embolectomy slide." "Sure you can." "It's just like cutting a class." "You never cut a class." "Never,not once." "That was a pretty big V.S.D.On the echo." "I'm gonna have to do an additional arteriotomy of the right P.A." "You should've taken the situation seriously." "You should've ordered further tests." "Maybe I should've." "Or maybe you should've." "And if you weren't so busy flirting with the patient like a love-struck teenager,maybe you would have." "Forceps,please." "This is so sad." "I used to walk by his house every day." "He was in my algebra class,I think." "Marissa." "I know that this seems impossible right now,but you will get through this." "Danny would've wanted you to." "You don't know what he would've wanted." "You're just like them." "You're a prom queen,and you're trying to act like you know what it's like for me." "You have no idea what it's like." "I wasn't a prom queen." "I was the girl in the cheap c thes from the trailer park who got pregnant and got thrown in the pregnant girls' class." "None of the mothers would let their kids hang out with me." "But I got through it." "You will get through this." "I'm gonna write a letter to his mom and dad." "That's really beautiful." "Get out." "What?" "Get out." "You're not even supposed to be in here." "She's here." "She's his friend,his best friend." "Go away." "Go." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to." "it's okay." "You just lost your best friend." "It's." "it's the worst thing in the world." "Oh,Dr. Shepherd." "Yes." "I'm sorry. a-about danny metcalf." "It looked like it was hard on you,whicis good." "If I had a son going through that,I'd want the surgeon to be fully invested like you were." "You have no idea who I am,do you?" "Of course I do." "bye,Dr. Shepherd." "You're the nurse in O.R. Two?" "The one that talked about cliques?" "Yeah." "Right?" "I am never gonna be captain again." "You know,I was." "I was fired from a job recently." "you were fired from being a doctor,and they let you cut open my ass?" "Okay,shut your trap for eight seconds and let me finish." "I didn't get fired from being a doctor." "I got fired from being,like,well,our version of squad captain, which is mostly about organizing crap." "not about surgery." "So?" "So." "I got to go back tohe part that I like,which." "it's kind of a gift." "hahn." "Oh,my god." "Oh,my god." "Uh,you paged,Dr. Hahn?" "Apparently when you ask for copies of the C.T. Angio around here, people think it's all right to just give you the slices that contain the clot." "Can you please bring me the entire C.T.?" "Absolutely,yes." "Absolutely." "I'll do that right now." "Your dad was in the E.R. Today." "I know." "So you know he was drunk and he put his hand through a window." "Yeah." "Anything else?" "I know it was susan's birthday,and I'm su it was a very hard day for the both of you." "And he wasn't actually a problem." "He was kind of charming." "But." "he seemed very sad,and I'd hate to see it happen again." "So maybe you should think about keeping a better eye on him." "Every day is my mother's birthday." "My mother was born in march." "He lied.He's a liar." "And I'm glad,really,I'm glad that you found him charming." "I'm sure he was delightful." "He's a blast after five drinks." "Not so much after nine,though.He gets a little weepy and mean." "He's a drunk,meredith." "He probably came in and told you how wonderful you are, how sad he is that he doesn't get to spend more time with you." "Yesterday he said that I was his favorite daughter." "The day before,I was an ungrateful bitch." "The week before,he wrote me a check for $20,000 because he said I deserved everything life had to offer because he was so proud of me, a lifetime's worth of proud." "So thank you for letting me know that I need to keep a better eye on him." "Thanks." "meredith,you want to come in for a minute and sit down?" "meredith?" "I'm sorry about all this." "Meredith,please.You have nothing to apologize for,nothing at all." "I'm keeping you from doing your job." "This is my job,at least part of it." "Think of it as."

"You tell your mama and daddy I said they're welcome." "oh,hey.I was,uh," "I was wondering if you got a chance to finish up that paperwork." "I wouldn't ask,but,you know," "I think a lot of it was kind of important." "No,I didn'T.Uh,I-I was planning on,uh." "I just gotta,uh,you know,finish it right now." "Thanks." "You're the best." "With all due respect,this has reached critical mass." "You saved his life,and he's taking you for granted." "You know what he deserves?" "A long speech." "You need to go right back in there and you need to give him a long,long speech." "I don't do secrets." "I don't do any of that 15-year-old,"ooh," "I'm gonna tell you,but don't tell anyone else."
