(BIRD CRIES)

MEREDITH: There's this playground
game that kids play.
Ripped By mstoll

(BAILEY CRYING)

I'll get him. You can't pick him up.

(CRYING CONTINUES)

Yes, I can.

No, your incision needs to heal.
I got him.

MEREDITH: They lock hands,
and on the count of three,

they try to snap each other's fingers off.

Hurry up before he wakes up the...

ZOLA: Mommy?



...girls.
- (SOFIA BABBLES)

- You hold out as long as you can.
- (SCOFFS)

Or at least longer than the other guy.

The game doesn't end
until someone says "stop,"

gives up, cries "mercy."

It isn't a fun game.

(CRUNCHING)

(PACKAGING RUSTLES)

(SIGHS)

Move over.

What the hell?

(GRUNTS) I couldn't sleep all night.

- I'm bored. Really bored.
- Nope.

- (DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE)
- Oh, don't kid yourself.



Call Hunt.

- (BAG RUSTLING)
- No.

Then try the Internet
like everybody else.

- For porn?
- For dating.

Find somebody else to get horny with.

- I have a girlfriend.
- Oh, she's passed out with her friends.

Again.

Did she ever sleep with you?

Did you guys have sex,
and it was awful?

- Was she awful?
- No.

Were you awful,

and now you're so ashamed
you can't even look at her?

- No.
- Oh, was it weird?

Is she a man?

- Ooh. Secret penis.
- Shut up!

Well, why don't you guys ever
sleep together?

We will!

Ohh.

- You two haven't done it yet.
- We do.

- You do done it?
- We have.

- Oh, you have? You do?
- We do.

- Okay.
- We do!

- Just get out!
- Okay. Hmm.

- Okay. Let me just think about that.
- (EXHALES DEEPLY)

'Cause it's been, like,
a week and you haven't closed the deal.

What have you done to evil spawn?

I was sleeping.

(LAUGHS)

Oh, God! I knew you'd cheer me up.

Mmm!

(SIGHS)

Would it kill her to bring me
more than one pair of Sofia's socks?

Frickin' thoughtless.

Where are Sofia and Zola?

- Um, um, Derek's putting their shoes on.
- Ah.

Are you sure you can handle
the both of them?

(SIGHS DEEPLY) Yes.

They're the only people
who don't piss me off right now.

I'll text you when
they're both in day care.

- Hi!
- Ah! You're a goddess.

And yet my W-l-F-E still sleeps around.

(SINGSONG) Okay, ladies!

(GASPS) Yes, here we go!

- DEREK: Here, take your duck.
- Here we go!

- Take your duck.
- (GASPS) We're going on a ferry ride.

- Thank you.
- Thank you. Have a good day.

Oh. What are we gonna do when
she fixes her marriage and leaves us?

- Oh, I think we're a ways off from that.
- (PANTS) Oh.

- Hey, I'm back. You still there?
- (DEREK GROANS)

Hi. How's everything going?

It's fine.

Uh, not the easiest patient,
but I got his number.

- Hey, is he still losing weight?
- His appetite's not great.

But that happens. You know that.

Right. And you're sure
you don't need my help?

Absolutely not. Go snuggle your baby.

Okay.

Will you let me know
if his albumin drops below 2.5?

I'm hanging up. Stop calling me.

(BEEPS)

Richard Webber.

Seven days status post ex-lap
with pancreatic debridement.

His daily weights are trending down.

Albumin's low at 2.

- OT wants to do a swallow study.
- (PENS SCRIBBLING)

In the meantime, I recommend
starting NG tube feeds.

No.

No tube.

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)

He doesn't seem to want a tube.

Respectfully, Dr. Bailey...

Make sure to replete his electrolytes,
and he'll start recovering.

- We've already given him...
- Give him more.

Where the hell is Shane?
He was supposed to study with us.

Mmm, more practice for us.

- Jo, hit me.
- Dude, pants!

(SIGHS) Crap. Sorry.
I'm stuck on a question.

- What's with the underwear?
- Totally not work-appropriate.

(SIGHS) I'm waiting for Alex
to make a move.

- So I'm prepared all the time.
- What about grooming?

- All the time.
- That's exhausting.

- (SIGHS)
- Why don't you just make the first move?

'Cause I'm not the slut who just
jumps into bed with someone

- right after her friend died.
- (WHISPERS) Really?

- Well, I'm not gonna advertise it.
- (PAGER BEEPS)

Trauma in the pit. Gotta go.

It's been a week, and he hasn't
made a move. Is that weird?

Yeah.

- (GROANS)
- (THUD)

(WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY
OVER PA)

(CLEARS THROAT)

- Haircut?
- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

Yes.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

You can't just say "haircut."

You have to say "nice haircut."

Otherwise, I'll think that
you think it's a bad haircut.

And I'm wearing a dress
and I got a haircut

'cause I wanna look nice today.
Do I look nice?

You look tense.

- Say I look nice!
- You look nice.

- Was that so hard?
- Mmm.

(CLEARS THROAT) Here we are.

ARIZONA: Oh, my God.
CRISTINA: Why are we here?

So you can see it for yourself
so this is not just a concept.

There is a hole in this hospital,
and it is leaking money.

But isn't that what insurance is for?

They are swamped with storm claims.

Now with this
outpatient surgery wing gone,

all of those patients are
now overloading our regular ORs.

Well, what do you want us
to do about it?

Meet. Make a plan. Be the board.

We're all swamped.

And Meredith and Derek are on leave.
Webber's down.

Yeah, and you and Torres
can't be in the same room.

(SIGHS)

I have a patient.

You know, right now

this hospital needs doctors more
than it needs board members.

What this hospital needs is both.

If you people can't be both,
then we are in a lot of trouble.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

Hey.

- I should go.
- Why?

We can't be alone together.

We're just talking about work.

(HORN BLARES IN DISTANCE)

(SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

WOMAN: Nurses' station.
Can I help you?

Ugh!

You all right?

Yeah.

WOMAN: Nurses' station. Please hold.

No. I... No. I haven't heard yet.

About my boards.

Oh.

Yeah.

But don't freak out. You passed.

Well, if I didn't,

you'll know that the first time
wasn't your fault.

- (CHUCKLES)
- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

It was all me.

(SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE)

(SIGHS) Don't freak out.

- Hey.
- Hey. You're riding with me today.

- Yeah, about that.
- Come on, it's a good one.

- Coming through!
- Oh, what do we got?

- Human pincushion.
- MAN: Kathleen Kane, 38.

Woman versus shattered baseball bat.

Puncture wounds to the chest

and what looks like
a distal radius fracture.

BP 85 palp, pressure 135.

The batter was jammed with a fastball,

and the bat, it just exploded, you know?

- My jersey's really messed up.
- Don't worry about that, baby.

Okay, everybody. Ready? On my count.

One, two, three.

(KATHLEEN GRUNTS)

I'm here. I'm right here, okay?

- Somebody paged me?
- Possible Colles' fracture.

Uh, sir,
I need you to wait outside, all right?

Right now, she needs you
to give us room to work.

We need another nurse in here!

You're gonna make sure
she's all right, right? Kat? Okay?

All right, I'm gonna show you
where you can wait.

Decreased breath sounds on the right.

- We need X-ray in here stat!
- WOMAN: Right away.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)
I'm dizzy. It's dark.

- Am I dying?
- LEAH: No, ma'am.

- Her systolic's down to 78.
- Tell Dante.

You have to tell Dante. Look at me.

- Lf I die...
- You're not dying.

You need to tell my husband.
Promise me.

- Of course.
- He needs to know.

And tell him...

I will. What is it?

I cheated on him with his brother.

What?

What did she say?

Did you hear what she asked me?

People say crazy things
when they're in shock.

- CT ready for us?
- MAN: I'll check.

Hey, Kepner,
did you hear back yet, by the way?

No, not yet.

- Mmm.
- (TELEPHONE RINGING)

You think that's bad?

You think it's good?

(MONITOR BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY)

- So do I have to tell her husband?
- Tell him what?

She grabbed me with her bloody claw

and said if she dies to tell him
that she slept with his brother.

Whoa.

- Bitch.
- (CRUNCH)

Why would she ask me to do that?

APRIL: Maybe she wants
a clear conscience.

Maybe he cheated first
and trashed the marriage.

Maybe he's an inconsiderate
cheating bastard,

and she wanted to get the last word.

So, I don't have to tell him, right?

How about you just don't let her die?

Okay, we can't wait for CT.
We gotta get her into the OR.

We'll put the chest tube in there.

Uh, sorry. (CHUCKLES)

Uh, just confirming
I'll see you tonight at 7:00?

Yeah, I don't think that's a good idea.

Callie, we agreed to couples' therapy.

Yeah, we agreed to a lot of things. So...

Okay, well, I'll be there.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Murphy, make yourself useful
and put a splint on that arm.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

He needs an NG tube, Dr. Grey.

I was hoping
you could call Dr. Bailey and...

Dr. Bailey is gonna kill me
if I call her again.

Richard is just being stubborn,
and Bailey doesn't want to call him out.

Order the NG tube.

And that way, at least it will be ready
by the time Bailey comes to her senses.

- But I'm not sure that she...
- I have to go.

(BEEP)

An hour and a half to go get milk?

I think, um,

I might've closed my eyes
in the store parking lot.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I really should be studying.

Trust me.
You are gonna want to be in on this.

This is the best part of the job.

Cara. Carlos.

Guys, this is Dr. Edwards.
She'll be assisting today.

And I have the simulation back.

Mmm, show me. Show me.

Okay, now first,
we're gonna be removing the scars

using tissue harvested
from your back and scalp.

And then I'm gonna hide our new scars
right here in the facial planes.

And it's gonna look
a little something like this.

(TABLET BEEPING)

CARLOS: Oh, my God.

- Really?
- You can do that?

You can make me look like that?

Now it's an estimate,
but it is very, very close.

And it's free?

'Cause our insurance maxed out
about two surgeries ago.

We know. That's why this one's on us.

- Hey, Cara.
- (CRYING)

I didn't think I was gonna
get to go back to work.

CARLOS: She teaches kindergarten.

Yeah, she's afraid
she's gonna scare the kids.

And she can't teach without
feeling her best, right?

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

(CHUCKLES) You guys!

(VOICE BREAKS) Thank you so much.

(WHISPERS) You still want to study?

She has lost a lot of blood,
but she's stable for now.

We're gonna take her into surgery
and remove the fragments.

Okay. Okay, thanks.

Marcus, she's going into surgery, man.

Is she gonna be all right?

- Um...
- No, it's okay.

He's family. He's my brother.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

She's, uh...

I'm

gonna

see you after.

- Thanks, man.
- (PATS BACK)

In the 17 years since
your infant heart transplant,

your mitral valve has started to fail.

So replacing it would increase
cardiac function.

And he won't need another transplant.

CRISTINA: That is the hope.
ALEX: I gotta ask you again.

Are you sure that you wanna do this?

There's a high risk
of tearing the ventricle,

bleeding, arrhythmias...

You're saying
he'd need a transplant anyway.

ALEX: I'm saying that he could die.

The safest bet is to put Michael
on the list for a new heart.

No.

I understand the risks.
We talked about it.

We almost lost him
waiting for his last heart.

When it was clear he was dying,
I asked the nurse if I could hold him.

He was so tiny.

I spent a whole night

looking in his eyes,
telling him I loved him,

accepting that I would
never, ever hear his first word.

(VOICE BREAKS)
I held my baby while he died.

(SNIFFLES) And then the phone rang.

(LAUGHS)

But I almost lost him.

And I cannot go through that again.

MICHAEL: The chance that there will be
another donor that matches me,

that I'll live long enough
for us to find that person,

that I'll even get to the top of the list...

We like these odds better.

Okay.

Well, if your MRI is good,
we'll get started today.

That kid should be on the UNOS list.

Well, you heard them, Alex.
They wanna take a shot.

And who are you to say no
to a high-risk surgery?

Let's just see what his MRI says.

- (INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)
- (TELEPHONE RINGING)

Funny thing. I didn't order an NG tube.

Did you hear me order
an NG tube, Dr. Webber?

- No.
- I...

MIRANDA:
So you can imagine our surprise

when a nurse brought one in,
along with a feeding pump.

Dr. Webber worried that
I had changed his course of treatment

without consulting him.

- Dr. Bailey...
- I told him I did not.

So then we got to thinking
about who, perhaps,

could have ordered these things,

and your name came up.

I was trying to be proactive.

In case repleting his electrolytes
doesn't work...

RICHARD: You wanna be proactive?

(SIGHS)

Get me some soup.

You heard the man.

Hey, what do you mean
"no pro bono surgeries"?

All funds are being reallocated
to storm repair until further notice.

What? Who said that?

The board did, so, you.

- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)
- (SQUEAKING)

All right, well, my lady's
facial reconstruction surgery

was booked way before the storm.

- (MARKER CLATTERS)
- She teaches kindergarten.

Avery, I don't make the rules.

I just get to be the bad cop here.

So then I'll just have the board meet,
and they're gonna approve it.

Well, that's gonna be tricky
since everyone on the board

has their own pro bonos
that they wanna do.

So when you all get together,
maybe come find me

and tell me how you plan to fund
repairing the outpatient OR,

so we're not drowning in patients.

Come on. We're gonna get to that
when things slow down.

Things won't slow down
until we get to it.

Well, if you'd let me finish
my reconstruction surgery...

Avery, we do not have the money
for this surgery.

Listen to me.
All due respect, you said it yourself,

you don't make the rules. I do.

Now Cara McAdams,
that pro bono is not gonna be canceled.

I need you to be a good cop,
a traffic cop.

Uh, I'm sorry?

Move some patients around.

If we're overloaded,
then transfer them to Seattle Pres.

I don't care. But make some room.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

- Yes, sir.
- (MARKER CLATTERS)

CRISTINA: So I'm waiting on
the kid's MRI, and if it's too crappy,

I have to put him on the transplant list
and no surgery.

So what do you think?

I think he went to the store
and took a nap in the parking lot.

Where's my nap, Cristina?

- I don't know. I didn't steal your nap.
- I'm sorry.

It's just my boobs hurt
and they're covered in lanolin

and I smell like an old couch.

Okay. Got eyes on Webber.

No NG tube.

Damn it, Shane.

I almost touched his arm today.

- Webber's?
- No. Owen's.

He's so stressed out about the hospital,
and I thought, you know,

I'd offer some support
and touch his arm.

But, you know, you touch his arm
and then you're in bed,

and then, nothing's changed.

- (TABLET CHIMES)
- Oh, crap. Hold on.

I got my valve kid's MRI.

Mer?

(SHOWER CONTINUES RUNNING)

Mer?

Oh, big help.

(BAILEY WAILING)

The shower works better
when you're in it.

(CONTINUES WAILING)

Oh. He's hungry,
and my nipples are no use to him.

- I know.
- (BAILEY CRYING)

Did you see the look on her face

- when you showed her that picture?
- (LAUGHS)

I just...
I wanna see that look on her new face.

I'm glad Chief Hunt came around.

I made sure he got the message
that I am doing the surgery

whether he likes it or not.

Where is Mrs. McAdams?

She was moved out by Chief Hunt.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

I don't think he got the message.

Owen, why do you keep rescheduling
my surgeries?

Well, let's have a board meeting,
and I'll tell you.

Why can't you tell me right now?

Because I'm busy
rescheduling surgeries.

- Why?
- ARIZONA: Owen?

What's this about a purchasing freeze
on the NICU budget?

Good. I have two of you here, at least,
so maybe we could...

- Okay.
- (SIGHS) Hey.

We're not buying the babies' jewelry.
We're buying them medicine.

Right now, we're low on NICU blankets.
That's baby blankets.

Don't tell me. Tell the board!

Hunt, where did my pro bono go?

Well, I took your advice
about transfers,

so I found someone
at Seattle Pres who could do it.

- That is my patient.
- Not anymore. Your patient is, uh...

Let's see. A gluteal liposuction,
with two lipos after that.

- You can't just fill my day with...
- Of course, I can.

It's what a traffic cop does.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

- Gluteal lipo. So that's...
- Sucking butt fat.

LEAH: Is that part of the logo?

It's gotta be the source of all this blood.

APRIL: Nope. There's blood coming
from somewhere else superiorly.

(SIGHS) We're gonna have to extend
this incision.

- Scalpel?
- MAN: Scalpel.

So I don't have to tell Dante, right?

- I mean, I can just forget that she said it.
- Murphy.

'Cause the brother's here now,
and it'll just ignite a family feud.

And maybe I heard her wrong.

- What else sounds like brother?
- Mother?

- Oh, God.
- She's gonna live, okay?

No. I know.

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)

It's just, there's a big bleeder
that we haven't found yet.

Murphy!

(SUCTION GURGLING)

(PLASTIC RUSTLES)

(SWALLOWS LOUDLY)

(WHISPERS)
Are you gonna watch me eat?

No. Absolutely not.

(SPOON CLATTERS)

(SPUTTERS AND COUGHS)

(GRUNTS)

(BREATHES RAGGEDLY)

Hey.

Hey.

- What are you doin'?
- Scavenging. NICU's low on blankets.

What are you doin'?

I have a painful erection
that won't subside.

Oh, not me. Pfft. Uh, cards.

- Huh. Oh.
- My condition is priapism.

Major causes are sickle cell

and...

- Crap.
- Leukemia.

I hope it goes away soon.

Mmm.

Hey, uh, you know,

you can kick my friends out
if you want to.

I mean, it's your house.
They shouldn't be there all the time.

(SIGHS) No. Hey, uh,
your friend died a week ago.

You guys should hang out or whatever.

Yeah.

Unless you're over it already.

No. I mean, I'm still really sad,
of course.

- But, uh, um...
- Look, I get it.

I mean,
they can crash however long they want.

You're being really great about this.

Really, really great.

- (SIGHS DEEPLY)
- (CHUCKLES)

- (DOOR OPENS)
- (STOMPS FEET)

- (GRUNTS) Ugh.
- (DOOR CLOSES)

(FILM RATTLES)

(TELEPHONE RINGING IN DISTANCE)

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

Your mitral valve replacement?

Yeah. A 17-year-old
infant heart transplant recipient.

- (TABLET BEEPS)
- Karev doesn't think I should do it.

- (SIGHS DEEPLY) His EF's only 25%.
- Yeah, it sucks.

And there is a lot of scarring
to get through.

Karev is right.

This kid should go
straight on the transplant list.

(SIGHS)

It's risky,

but the parents want it,
and so does the kid.

(CHUCKLES)

Sounds like
you're gonna go ahead then.

Yeah.

Well, good luck.

Thanks.

What?

Normally, I'd kiss you.

I'd wish you luck and then I'd kiss you.

Hey, you guys did
couples' therapy, right?

Was it good? Did it help?

I mean, obviously not, right?
Look at you guys.

- Uh, no offense.
- Offense.

(TELEPHONE RINGING IN DISTANCE)

Well... (SCOFFS)

- (CELL PHONE BUZZES)
- (CELL PHONE BEEPS)

- Torres.
- (MONITOR BEEPING ERRATICALLY)

What?

The only way? No, no, no.
No, you don't cut the clavicle!

No, don't do that without me!
Why would you do that?

Because the subclavian's
bleeding like stink,

- and we can't get to it.
- She's bleeding out!

And she's bleeding out.

- (ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)
- Ugh.

- Okay, everybody out.
- WOMAN: What?

- Everybody out. Get out now! Now!
- WOMAN: Why? What?

Come on, get out! Come on!
Get out! Come on!

- (PUSHES BUTTON)
- You do not cut a clavicle yourselves!

No! No!

(PUSHES BUTTON)

- LEAH: She says "no."
- I don't think I have a choice.

- She doesn't have...
- I can hear her! Tell her I'm on my way!

- LEAH: She's on her way.
- Excuse me!

(SUCTION GURGLING)

- (SIGHS)
- (MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)

- What do we do?
- MAN: BP's dropping.

- Give me the saw.
- WOMAN: Here you go.

(WHIRRING)

- (PANTING)
- (WHIRRING STOPS)

Oh, God.

What the hell did you just do?

What part of "don't cut the clavicle"
do you not understand?

APRIL: I fixed it.
Massive bleeder just under the right...

You made a clean cut down the middle.

Do you have any idea how difficult it is

to repair bone with
this little surface area?

There was no way to do
the repair without visibility.

Mmm, no, there was no easy way.

And because you're careless
and thoughtless,

that seemed prohibitive to you.

You think you can just do
whatever you feel like in the moment,

and Ortho will just put everything back
the way it's supposed to be.

- She was dying!
- Just go. Let me clean up your mess.

Come on.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

ALEX: Promise me if it looks too gnarly
you'll just close him up.

CRISTINA: Will you stop
wringing your hands?

- God. No wonder you can't have sex.
- I can have sex.

I can have sex.

Are the hydraulics not working?
I can write you a script.

Look, that's not...

She's just bummed about
her dead friend

and stressed about her exams.

Ugh, those are not valid.

All right.
There's been a lot of girls since Izzie.

A lot of nobodies.
But this girl is not a nobody.

She's... I don't know.
When I think about it,

it just seems important. Like...

Like it's gotta be the right time.

You want it to be special.

- What?
- Nothing. It's sweet.

- Are you making fun of me?
- I am not.

(SUCTION GURGLING)

Can I ask you one thing?
When we're done here,

will you braid my hair?

(LAUGHS)

- (BOVIE SIZZLES)
- (CLICKS TONGUE)

Oh, boy.

ALEX: Mmm.

Last chance to turn back.

- Scissors.
- WOMAN: Here you go.

Of course I pissed him off.

But transferring my patient
to some other hospital just to spite me?

Seems extreme.

- Yeah, he can't do it.
- Yeah, he can. He's your boss.

No. I'm his boss. Right?
The board is his boss.

That's a jacked up system.

The system is actually fine.

It's just in this particular situation,
it becomes...

- Jacked up?
- Complicated.

You know what's not complicated? This.

Unless I'm missing something,
you just suck the fat with that hose.

Well, pretty much.

Okay.
And the next lipo will be just like this?

Oh, it's gonna be a different butt entirely.

Do you really need me here?
'Cause everyone else is studying.

You said something about
being with me all day.

Thought we were changing lives?

Yeah, but I also wanted to see
the look on our patient's face.

- Get out of here.
- (LAUGHS) Thanks!

- MEREDITH: Is he asleep?
- No. He hates sleep.

He's staring at the mobile.

Mmm.

I don't know how such a little kid
can puke on so many things.

I don't know.

- Are you asleep?
- No.

Nobody's asleep. Are you asleep?

No, I'm too worried about Richard
to sleep.

He needs an NG tube,
and of course he doesn't want one.

And he's intimidating Bailey
into not ordering one.

But that's what he needs.

He made me his family,
and then I abandoned him.

It's just a mess over there.

Swallow study?

Okay, Ross, I can't read this. Take this.

- Ross.
- I know.

- He's got a PAS score of six?
- I know.

Okay, I'm a 60-year-old woman

with abdominal pain, a fever,
and significant discharge.

My initial diagnosis is that you're gross.

You guys have gotta go.
No study hall at Alex's tonight.

But it's our spot. We're study buddies.

No, you are a freaking
human chastity belt.

I know we've been grieving,
but it's been a week.

I am all grieved out.

Ooh, celibacy's made you mean.

Heather would understand.
She'd want me to get laid.

Pushing it, but okay.

Okay, look, this is my last pair
of clean, sexy underwear.

Then it's all granny panties
until laundry day.

- It has to be tonight.
- (PAGER BEEPING)

Oh, no, no, no!

- What happened?
- (PANTING)

- CALLIE: I think she stroked out.
- Push high dose Epi.

- I already pushed high dose Epi.
- Did you try Vasopressin?

Kepner, she's been down
for 15 minutes.

- (WHISPERS) What?
- (ECG FLATLINING)

(PANTING)

- (CONTINUES FLATLINING)
- No.

(PANTING)

- (FLATLINING CONTINUES)
- Time of death, 16:17.

(WHISPERS) Oh, dear God.

- I'm sorry. I tried.
- (WHEELS ROLLING)

(PANTING)

So, um...

What do I tell the husband?

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

You tell him,

we did everything we could,

- but despite our best efforts, we...
- LEAH: Not that part.

The part about how
she slept with his brother.

He's about to hear that his wife is dead.
I think that's enough.

Hang on.

The woman trusted you, Murphy.
She wanted him to know the truth.

It's his last memory of his wife.

Yeah, well,
at least it'll be an honest one.

He deserves to know.

And you made a promise.

You're gonna tell him,
and I'm gonna make sure you do.

(CLATTER)

What were you thinking?

Hey, what in God's name?

Ross showed me Richard's chart.

But you have staples in your body!

- I took them out. I'm a skilled surgeon.
- You have no pain?

I have a lot of pain.
It's called sleep deprivation.

MEREDITH: Richard is starving.

We have a plan.

- "We have a plan?"
- Yeah.

He's a patient here.
He doesn't get to make decisions.

No. We do. We who are here.
We who have the plan.

- So why don't you go back home...
- I will once I know he's okay.

He's not okay.

And it isn't as simple as
sticking a feeding tube down his throat.

It is that simple.

We all know he can't get well
unless he eats,

and he can't eat if he can't swallow.

MIRANDA: You know as well as I do that

a feeding tube is
psychologically devastating.

- It takes away a man's dignity.
- So does dying.

I really wanna talk to the radiologist
about the swallow study.

- Well, fine. Let's go.
- Okay.

- What's in your hair?
- Baby vomit.

(SIGHS) Give me the damn stroller.

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)

(SWALLOWS)

What the hell do you think
you're doing?

You have dysphagia
and laryngeal edema.

Even if you could eat on your own,
which you can't,

you're at risk for aspirating your food.

You need an NG tube,
or you're gonna starve.

And I'm not gonna let
another one of us die.

(SWALLOWS)

You're an intern.

Don't talk to me like
I don't know what's happening.

You're pretending like
it isn't happening,

and Dr. Bailey's letting you.

Dr. Grey is here.

She came all this way with a baby,

and there's no way she's gonna leave

without forcing this thing
through your nose

and into your stomach.

And I think you don't want her
to be the one to do that.

I'm offering to take care of this
right now.

Just you and me.

(SWALLOWS)

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

- Avery, I have one more patient for you.
- No, no, no. No more.

And I'm calling Cara McAdams
first thing

and I'm doing the pro bono surgery,

and the board is gonna
discuss your behavior.

Avery, Avery, look.

She's all set for you
first thing tomorrow.

- You said you transferred her.
- Mmm-hmm. I lied.

- You lied?
- Yeah, I just moved her.

So that means you decided that

three liposuctions were more important
than this lady's facial...

No, but the three lipos will pay
for this lady's facial reconstruction.

The money has to come
from somewhere.

So, yeah, I lied,
and now you have the money.

Avery, I needed to make
a point with you.

I know we're all doctors,
and we're all busy,

but until the board members
are willing to solve

the bigger budget problems
caused by the storm,

the doctors' problems
aren't going away.

So you need to do something now.

(SIGHS)

- You are right.
- Yeah.

You all need to meet.
I can't force you to...

No, no. You can.

You're our boss, and you can lie.

(TELEPHONE RINGING IN DISTANCE)

- (MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)
- He's in V-tach, Yang. You should stop.

They've all been short runs
and then they've all stopped. It's fine.

You gotta get over this "special" thing.

Just throw her over your shoulder,
take her to bed, and go to town.

Every girl's dream.

She's the thing that's special, dumbass.

God, you have the right person
right there.

You both want the same thing.

- Wait. Don't... Don't go too deep.
- Stop being scared.

CRISTINA: This family is not scared.
This boy is not scared.

I am not doing this because I want to.

I'm doing this because they asked me to
and because I can.

(MONITOR BEEPING ERRATICALLY)

Well? What are you waiting for?

The arrhythmias are coming closer.

If I keep pushing, I'll send him into V-fib.

Even cannulating will destroy the heart
before I get to the valve.

You win. This kid needs a new heart.

- Let's get out of here.
- (BOVIE CLATTERS)

- I'm sorry.
- So am I.

(INSTRUMENT CLATTERS)

WOMAN OVER PA: Dr. Ryan
to Imaging. Dr. Ryan to Imaging.

You okay?

(SIGHS) Just lost a patient,

and now I am waiting
for more bad news.

Still haven't heard?

You know, when I failed last year,
I found out before I got home that night.

It's been 48 hours, and nothing.

(SIGHS)

I think if you fail twice,

they just stop talking to you
and hope you get the hint.

- I'm pretty sure that's not how it works.
- (SMARTPHONE CHIMES)

It's them. It's here.

Go ahead.

Uh...

- Me? I'm... No. I don't...
- Please? I can't.

(SIGHS)

- (SLAPS LEGS)
- What?

Just...

Congratulations.

- Yes! Yes!
- Yes.

Yes!

Oh! Thank you, God! Thank you!

- (GIGGLES) Yes!
- Like you said,

it's all you.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Yeah.

CALLIE: Your wife had a stroke
during surgery.

She had a coagulation disorder,
which is why the clot formed so quickly.

APRIL: We're so, so sorry for your loss.

(CRYING) She was just here.

She was laughing on the way here.
She wanted me...

She wanted me to find out
who won the game.

(CONTINUES CRYING)

(SNIFFLES)

There is one other thing
I need to tell you.

Before she went into surgery,

- your wife wanted me to tell you...
- That she loves you.

She told us to tell you
that she loves you.

- Thank you.
- (SOBBING)

(TELEPHONE RINGS)

WOMAN: Nurses' station.

Shepherd?

Oh, have you seen my wife and baby?

- Wait. Meredith's here?
- Meredith.

- Crap. I meant to text you.
- I woke up to nothing and nobody.

The woman's wearing
mismatched shoes. Cut her some slack.

- I have to go check on Richard.
- (BLOWS KISS)

Send me a note next time.

You look like hell.

You know
you're in a building full of beds.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)
I just need to go lie down.

Yeah.

Ross, what did you do?

You were supposed to wait until...

He was overdue for the tube,
and nobody seemed to wanna do it.

He was starving to death
right in front of us,

so I did what had to be done.

There was so much scar tissue.

I'm afraid
I couldn't get to the valve to repair it.

Michael has to go on the transplant list.

The transplant coordinator will be in
to ask you some questions.

(CRIES) Oh, God.

Look, the transplant list
is not a death sentence.

It's a chance.
It's hope that most people never get.

When Michael wakes up,
he needs to hear that from you.

I know it's not what you wanted,
but now we have to move forward.

Michael needs the hope that
there is a donor out there somewhere,

or he won't survive.

(CRYING)

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

You're up?

- Barely. I got paged.
- Me, too.

Well, who would page us?
We're not even supposed to be here.

- I was having the nicest dream.
- Wait. You guys got a page?

- God, what happened to the guy?
- Apparently everything.

- Hey, you were paged, too?
- Why outpatient surgery?

Well, it's a disaster area.
Maybe someone got hurt.

- (MUTTERS)
- I don't know.

- (SIGHS)
- (SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)

It worked.

I cannot believe that that worked.

Uh, okay. Where's the trauma?

There's no trauma.
This is a meeting of the board.

- There's no trauma?
- A meeting about what?

- We're gonna have a party.
- Is this a trauma, a meeting or a party?

- I'm so confused.
- I'm so tired.

We're gonna have a party, folks.
A big one. Gala fund-raiser.

We're gonna invite
the richest people that we know,

and we are gonna
charm the money out of them.

But first, Dr. Hunt is gonna tell us

exactly how much money we need
and where it needs to go,

starting with what used to be this room.

So, let's settle in.
This is gonna take a while.

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

(CHAIRS SCRAPE GROUND)

(DOG BARKS IN DISTANCE)

- We have the house to ourselves.
- (DOOR CLOSES)

But I want you to know that

just because
I'm about to jump into bed with you

does not mean I'm an unfeeling slut

who isn't sad about Heather,
because I am sad.

- I'm also very, very...
- No more talking.

What? Oh! (GASPS)

Yes! Oh, thank God!

(GIGGLES)

(PUSHES BUTTON)

(DOOR CLOSES)

(ELEVATOR WHIRRING)

Eventually, I'm gonna touch your arm,

and you are going to kiss me
good luck before surgery.

- Cristina.
- Let's date other people.

Okay, it'll suck
and it'll feel forced, but maybe it'll help.

Maybe eventually I won't want
to take your hand

when we get off the elevator
at the end of the day.

- No, come on.
- Don't.

Just tell me you'll try.

- (BELL DINGS)
- (DOOR OPENS)

I'll try.

(WHISPERS) Okay.

(EXHALES) Oh! Thank God. You came.

(SIGHS) I've been wishing
you hadn't told me,

and that we could go back to our life,

to being happy.

Except we weren't happy.

At least you weren't.

And so we do things like
have sex with other people.

Callie, I made a mistake.

(SIGHS)

- One mistake...
- Yeah, I don't think it was a mistake.

I've been picturing you
screwing that woman

over and over again. And I can't...

Think about her
or talk about her anymore.

I'm all done with that for right now.
So I'm not going into that room.

But I think you should.

I think you need to.

MEREDITH: In the game of mercy,
when one kid cries out...

No.

The other one listens,
and the pain stops.

(VOICE BREAKING) Please.

I really need to talk.

I really need you to do this.

(VOICE BREAKS) I know.

You wore the red dress and everything.

(SIGHS)

MEREDITH: Don't you wish
it was that easy now?

(MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY)

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

I'm sorry. I know I haven't been here.

- You picked me as your family...
- Stop it. Stop it.

I didn't call you my family.

I'm not your father.

I chose you because
I thought you could put emotion aside,

and make the right call.

I knew Bailey was too weak.

But you,

I thought I could trust

not to let them operate on me
when I was all but...

(SWALLOWS)

When I was all but dead.

Not to bring me back to

life,

where I have to get my

meals from a...

(INHALES DEEPLY)

From a tube.

I thought you wouldn't be sentimental.

I was wrong.

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

I chose the wrong person.

MEREDITH: It's not a game anymore,

and we're not kids.

You can cry "mercy" all you want,

but nobody's listening.

It's just you

screaming into a void.
