[ "Raising hands raising hell
raise 'em high" plays ]

[ Car approaching ]

Are you sure
you should do that here?

¶ This body isn't mine,
but I got a heart of gold ¶
we're awfully close
to the road.

What are you so worried about?

¶ And I'm sitting in a desk ¶
what we're doing
is illegal.

¶ Nailed to the floor ¶
I just don't like doing things
that are illegal.

¶ Doing everything I'm told ¶
well, so we just...
just dump them on the ground?

No, you...
You know, we... Scatter them.

¶ Doing everything I'm told ¶

around the campsite.



[ Grunts ]

This is our spot.

¶ You dragged me to the doctor ¶

¶ and you didn't tell me why ¶

¶ a nine-year-old
in headphones ¶
okay, pops.
It's show time.

¶ Raising hands, raising hell,
raise 'em high ¶
Meredith: Everybody has
something to hide.

[ Clears throat ]
[ Door closes ]

¶ Oh, you better
raise 'em high ¶
we can't just expose
all our secrets to the world.

Jo: It's on top shelf!
In the fridge.
Oh!

Hello... I'm in here.
Oh, I know. I'm sorry.

¶ Oo-hoo ¶
our shower's still busted
and I got rounds.

You know what?
I told him a thousand times...

¶ You don't even know,
you don't even know ¶
You put the bread
on the counter, it molds.

¶ Oo-hoo ¶
you put it in the fridge,
it's fine.



¶ You don't even know,
you don't even know ¶
I'm right, right?

¶ Oo-hoo ¶
okay. Whew!

¶ Say, you don't even know,
you don't even know ¶
hey, do you know
where the bread is?

¶ Oo-hoo ¶
you need to
get your shower fixed!

[ Door closes ]
That's how we get hurt.

¶ Hey! ¶
it's how we risk
hurting other people.

We have to decide
how much we let out...


¶ Hey! ¶
And keep the truth
to ourselves.

Hey. How'd it go
with the kids?

Uh, great.
Uh, they're amazing.

I just dropped them off
at daycare.

Thanks again for watching them.

Yeah.
How about you?

How was your weekend...
In D.C...

With your husband?

It... Was fun.

Uh... uh, I'm a little
exhausted, you know.

But it was the good kind
of exhausted, right?

[ Button clicks ]
Did you even leave
the bedroom?

Was he surprised?
Did he freak?

Yeah, did he... Freak?

Or did you just go straight

to getting
[Singsong voice] frea-Kay?

You know, did we even push
the button, because it's just...

[ Elevator bell dings ]
Oh. Mm-hmm.

Hey, look who's back.

Meredith was
just about to tell us

about her weekend with Derek.

Good. Tell me now so you
don't show up in my bed tonight.

It's a good thing you didn't
walk in on this morning.

[ Sighs ] Oh.

Everyone's getting freaky
but me.

[ Elevator bell dings ]
Well, actually,
I was just...

Actually remembered
I-I have to, uh... yeah.

They totally got freaky.
[ Elevator bell dings ]

And I come in this morning,

and Herman's rearranged
the entire O.R. board

with new fetal surgeries.

I used to be so good
at one-night stands.

I...I missed a beat.

No, I was great at them.

And now, whenever
I'm not watching Sofia,

I just sit alone at home
in my pajamas.

I-I want to be out of my pajamas
and not alone.

So go.

Meet someone.
It's easy.

Oh, it's easy.
[ Chuckles ]

Well, what do you do?
What's your line?

I don't use lines.
I'm just honest.

What do you mean "honest"?

[ Scoffs ] I don't know.

They start with
"what do you do?"

And I tell them
I'm a trauma surgeon,

and they wonder
why I chose that.

And I tell them
I served in the war,

and I fixed soldiers
on the battlefield,

and that was a...

Really satisfying way
to save lives.

And it still is.

[ Telephone rings ]

Yeah, that'll do it.

[ Chuckles ]

Ah, you've got game, major hunt.

It's not a game.
It's just...

Wha... what happened
to the couch?

Oh.

Hey.

Sorry I'm late.
I'm sorry I'm late.

Three surgeries today, Robbins.

They're not gonna round
on themselves.

I know. I'm on it.

Yeah, um, Wilson just barged in
and stole my shower.

Edwards, does she always
walk around naked?

Not around the hospital,
generally.

[ Sighs ]
It's like "residents gone wild."

Robbins, do you live
with residents?

Oh, god.
Is that thing still on?

You're a grown-up.
Get your own place.

I need you focused here.

Lie down, Nicole.

So, d-did Wilson just climb
in the shower with you?

Yeah. No.
We... instead of me.

Was she coming on to you?

No!
Doubtful.

You know what?
Can we...

[ laughs ]
Just...
let's drop it.

[ Laughing ]
"Residents gone wild."

[ Laughs ]

Would you go?

You're making her laugh
too much.

[ Clears throat ]

[ Laughing continues ]

Mwah!

I thought you were going back
to the airport.

I just couldn't
get on that plane.

Thank you.

Thank you for letting me
stay the weekend,

being there for me.

It was just what I needed.

I hate the circumstances,
but, uh,

I'm glad it gave us
a chance to reconnect.

I hear that Jackson and April
are coming in today.

Have you seen him?

Catherine, he asked you
to keep your distance.

And I'm honoring that request.

Look, I know how hard that is
for you, okay?

But you sent food,
you call for updates.

They know you're there.

I know.
I just hate it.

I'll miss you.

Well, I'll...
I'll be in the O.R. anyway.

I have an open colectomy today.

I could scrub in,
do your ureteral stents.

That'll give us
a little more time.

Mm. Oh, I could
make that happen.

Make it happen.

[ Both chuckle ]

So, you and Meredith
are getting pretty tight, huh?

What do you mean?

Well, what did she say
about this weekend?

Why?
Did she tell you something?
You said she told you.

Uh, no, I said
she was about to tell me.

What do you think
she was about to tell you?

What did she tell you?

Wasn't there a couch there?

Miranda: What... um, don't you
want to say something?

This is the closest thing
to a funeral.

No, dad hated funerals.

"Sprinkle me
in the woods."

God, he was a pain in the ass.

Well, you can't just say that.

You know,
one of his favorite memories

was taking us out here camping.

"We eat what we catch."

[ Grumbles ]

"We sleep
in what we can carry."

[ Laughs ]

Just us men.

You okay?

Maybe we should just go.

Hey, race you to the top.

Wai... [ Sighs ]

Come on. What you got?
What you got?

Hmm?

Oh, goodness.

Ha, ha!

[ Laughs ]

[ Sighs ]

It's so muggy.

It's hard to breathe.

You okay?

Hey, curt.
You should sit down.

Whoa! Curt!
Curt!

Wha...

Curt!
[ Grunts ]

Call 911!

Hey.
How was your weekend?

It was nice.
She got some.

She doesn't want to
talk about it.

Oh, well, I'm glad you went.
I got some, too.

Definitely don't want
to talk about that.

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Horn blares ]

What do we got?
Curtis Warren, post syncope.

31. He's still tachycardic,
diaphoretic,

and hypotensive after fainting.

But don't just stand here, grey.
Give me a hand.

Man: Over here!

Hillary list,
27-year-old female,

found unconscious at the scene
after a pretty bad tumble

down a flight of concrete stairs
in the park.

Hill, honey, I'm right here.

Oh, it's all my fault.

This was your fault?

No.
No, no, no, no, no.

I didn't push her.
I proposed to her.

Okay, let's go to trauma two.

Meredith:
Fast scan is negative.

Because there's nothing wrong
with me.

Any changes in your diet
recently?

I told them I missed breakfast,

so I was a little woozy
in the woods.

He's still mildly hypotensive
after two liters.

I'm fine.

[ Inhales sharply ] Aah.

Well, there's definitely
some tenderness there.

Well, run his liver enzymes
and get a coag panel.

Let's get you into this.
You know what?

I'm gonna re-check
that abdom...
no!

Look, I don't need to put on
this stupid thing.

Would you calm down?
Look, Benji, get off me!

W-would you tell them
to back off?

Okay, okay.
Okay.

Family shouldn't be
in here anyway.

Let's step outside.

You can change,
and I will be back for you.

[ Sighs ]

He's usually a sweetheart.
I'll go talk to him.

Well, Bailey, he's my patient.

I'll take it.
You can go.

Todd:
I took her to the park.

It was, um... it was
where we had our first date,

so I thought
that had a certain symmetry.

I'll order a head C.T.

And an X-ray for her right wrist
and right knee.

At the top of the stairs,
I got down on my knee

and I said...

"Hillary, when I met you,

"I felt like my life blossomed
with fullness."

"Like the sun had shone down
on me, baby."

And that's as far as I got.

I had more, but she fainted
and she fell all the way down.

I...Should've caught her.

Hill? Hill? Hill?
Honey? Honey.

Hey, hey, hey.
It's me.

Right here.
Hey, I'm here.

I'm never leaving your side.

I'll never...
Ever leave you.

I'll never...

[ Sighs ]

Callie: Oh, she's out again.
Hill? Hill?
Hillary?

Todd, uh,
we're gonna admit her now.

Yeah.
So, uh, Dr. Wilson's
gonna show you

where you can wait, okay?

And page neuro.

I'm here.

Jo: Todd.

I'll just... I'm just gonna be
over here, baby.

Dr. Herman, you scheduled
another surgery for tomorrow?

I thought we said...

Yes, uh, the Larsen mom.
Sorry.

Is this
the attendings' lounge couch?

It was.

Dr. Herman, please stop
making me be this guy.

You can't just steal
hospital furniture.

I need this couch.

This is the best couch
in the building.

It's firm, but soft.

Bouncy.

Responsive.

Would you like to try it out?

Well, um... I-I think
that's, um...

I-I-I appreciate
the, um, offer, but I...

Uh, hunt.
I'm messing with you.

Larsen's gonna be
a quick in and out.

9:30, O.R. six.

Is that fine with you?
That's fine, yeah.

And, um...

Was that a "no"
on trying out the couch?

[ Chuckles ]

[ Laughs ]

Hey.
So, I'm good to go?

Curt, your liver enzymes,
they're off the charts.

Any idea why that might be?

I got to reminiscing about dad
last night.

Maybe one too many
whisky toasts.

Okay,
I'm gonna get a C.T.

Oh, come on.

Listen.

What are you getting at?

I ran some extra tests,

because what I was seeing
wasn't making any sense.

Your lab results for a
30-year-old man are not normal,

and you had the estrogen levels
of a young woman.

I just want to know
what you're dealing with
so I can help you.

Hillary,
scans show that the fall

caused an artery
under your skull to bleed.

You'll need surgery
to repair it.

And then Dr. Wilson
and I will repair the
fracture in your knee.

But none of this explains
why you passed out.

Has this ever happened before?

Fainting, dizzy spells?
No, never.

Uh, Todd said that it happened
a couple of times.

You were talking on the couch
and then you...

I just nodded off.

Well, I'd like to run a complete
neuro work-up to find out...

Is that really necessary?

I know it's scary,

but multiple fainting spells
can mean a lot of things...

Heart problems...
It's not that.

I'm also concerned
about narcolepsy, cataplexy...

No, no!
There's no plexies.

I didn't faint.

Not on the couch,
not on the stairs.

Okay, well, Todd said that...

I faked it.

I faked fainting
when he proposed

because I didn't know
how to say no

without breaking his tender,
little, quivering heart.

Whoa.

We should scrub in together
more often.

I could come to you on occasion.

I'm thinking he will need
a component separation.

I'll call in a plastics consult.

No, he's fine.
There's hardly any...

Page Dr. Avery, please.
Uh-huh. You got it.

Curt: If there's good news
and bad news,

I want the good news first.

Okay.

The good news is, a person
can live without a spleen.

Oh.

Wow.

I'm removing yours today.

The C.T. showed your spleen
is remarkably swollen.

It's probably due to a clot
in the splenic vein...

Are you on drugs?

Coke or something?
Benji, come on.

'Cause I'm looking
at this organ damage

and I don't know what to think.

Do you have any idea
what it could be, Dr. grey?

Okay.

Curt.

Don't be stupid.

All right, if you're in trouble,

you can tell me, whatever it is.

You know that.

Ben.

You know me.

I don't do drugs.

I never have.

[ Sighs ]

Can you make that call?

He wouldn't lie to me.

Drugs are off the table.

But it's something,

so try thinking like a doctor,
not his...

I am thinking like a doctor.

Maybe there's
a genetic component.

My father just died
of colon cancer.

Maybe we start there.

I don't think it's his colon.

You got a better idea?

All right,
then we start running tests.

Look, I just lost my dad,
Miranda.

I'm not gonna lose
my brother, too.

Mm-hmm.

Just...

Okay, is this
what I think it is?

What do you think it is?

I'm not blind, grey.

My husband might be,
but I'm not.

Now, he has no hair
on his chest or arms.

He waxes his eyebrows.

I'd kill
to have eyebrows like that.

And then I'm looking at these
numbers and the splenic damage,

is he doing
what I think he's doing?

You have to ask curt.

[ Telephone rings ]

Woman: Nurses' station.

That zola, she could play
go fish all night long.

You have a budding card shark
on your hands.

[ Laughs ]

Yeah, well,
we eventually hide the cards.

It's the only way she'll stop.

I'll have to remember that
for next time.

Look, I just want to say
that, um...

I am not here to judge you,
but I'm a bad liar.

So...
I don't know
what you're talking about.

You packed a suitcase
full of lingerie

and you went away
for the weekend.

Yeah, I...

And then Derek called me
three times

asking where you were.

Meanwhile, you texted me

telling me what a great time
you were having,

so whatever you were doing,
whoever...

He, she, they, whatever...

It wasn't with him,
and that's all.

I want to be here for you,

but I like Derek
and I hate lying.

Curt: [ Coughing ]

Oh g... grey! Pierce!
Get in here!

Okay, okay.
It's okay.

Meredith: Call the O.R.
let them know we're coming now!
Oh, god, curt!

Robbins.
Let's go scrub.
Coming.

Listen, just talk to her,
and... and maybe buy her a robe.

[ Scoffs ] Why would I do that?

Was this about
the naked resident?

Ooh, you and Wilson,
you're a thing.

You know what?
Let's not.

And Robbins can get handsy
with the residents.

Really?

I do not!

Last year, she got handsy.

H.R. Got involved.
There are policies now.

Oh!
Because of you?

Robbins, that's incredible.

It's not.
It... both of you stop, okay?

Alex, it's inappropriate.

She's a resident.
I'm her superior.

I'm a girl who likes girls.

It just puts us both
in a very awkward position,

and you should respect that.

Well, I'm kind of down
for whatever happens.

[ Scoffs ] I'm gonna kill you.

Hey.
Hey.

You need to start putting on
pants around the house

'cause Robbins
keeps checking out your ass.

No. No.
Alex, no.

You don't need to
put pants on, okay?

Your ass is...
It... fine.

See?
That's reportable.

No! I...
[ Scoffs ]

I hate you all.

I have surgery.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

This is the best day.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, god, I'm awful.

There is nothing wrong
with Todd.

He's... he's nice
and he's stable

and he cares for me deeply...

So deeply.

And he's clingy,
and he loves to...

I don't even know
what to call it,

but he likes to...
Pet me.

[ Chuckles ] It's really soft,

and it... ugh!

He's boring.

So, I just started
doing this thing

where I pretend to faint
so he'll stop talking.

Wow, that is...

Diabolical.

Why don't you just tell him
the truth?

Because it would kill him.

I mean, he wants to take things
to the next level,

but the more that he feels,
the less I do.

And then today,
we were in the park,

and he got down on one knee

and he looked up at me
with his big wet eyes,

so I just...
Faked it.

I didn't realize how close I was
to the steps.

But I had to go with it
all the way down.

You can really commit.

Yeah.

But not to Todd.

[ Clears throat ]
Shepherd, how's Herman?

Any changes to the tumor?

Oh, it's grown a little
inferiorly.

Uh, but it's still within
the margins I expected.

Why?
I was just checking.

Actually, um...

Her behavior is...

She's stealing furniture.

Oh.
[ Chuckles ]

And... She was flirting
with me.

Herman flirted with you?

I think so.

I...Yeah.

[ Chuckles ]

Did you take her up on it?

I mean, she's very attractive.

No. Uh, yes, she...
She is, bu...

And tall.

I mean, she might be the tallest
person in the hospital.

You might find tall people
attractive.

I don't know.
No, I don't.

Not as a rule,

but professionally,
it's not a good idea.

Is that a rule?

No co-workers?

Didn't say that.

I-I like co-workers.

I-I... but the...
The hospital, we have rules

that are, um...

Thank you for the update.

[ Clears throat ]

You wanted a consult?

Not me.

Me.

Mom.

I asked you to go.

I need you to take a look
at this incision, sweetheart.

She's not just trying
to check on me and April?

Don't look at me.
I got played, too.

They just took him in.

How the hell did this happen?

He was sitting up
and talking to me an hour ago.

Well, we knew about the spleen.

It made
his stomach muscles bleed,

but Pierce will clip them
and grey...

You were right.
You were right about the drugs.

I-I didn't want to believe it
at first, but it's obvious.

He... he's using.

Okay, now, we shouldn't jump...

I'll get him in rehab.

As soon as he can walk
out of here, I'm go...

Ben, wait.

What do you think it is?
Coke? Crystal?

Come on, y-you're usually right
about these things.

Tell me.

I think...

You should talk to curt.

Is there... there something
you're not telling me?

After surgery,
he'll tell you everything.

Tell me what?
Miranda.

Just talk to him.
He'll...

But what if I don't get
the chance to?

What... what if he doesn't
come out of surgery?

Oh, that's nonsense.
Now, just calm down.

Calm down?

I'm being lied to by my brother,

and now I'm being lied to
by my wife.

I'm not lying to you.

Well, no one's telling me
the damn truth!

[ Grunts ] I'll tell you!

[ Huffs ]

It's only because
when he tells you,

you need to react better
than this, Ben Warren.

What is it?

Okay, curt is...

[ Sighs ]

Curt is transitioning.

He...

She is transgender.

And she identifies as female,

and she wants to live life
as a woman.

Your brother
is becoming your sister.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, my god.

Oh...
Oh, that son of a bitch.

He...
He put you up to this.

[ Chuckles ]

Maggie:
Bleeding is controlled.

Clamping the hilum.
Suture ligature.

So, what did you say
when he called?

The first time, I said
that you were in the shower.

Ligating the gastric vessels.

The second time,
I said you were taking a nap.

And the third time,

I said hunt called you in
for an emergent rectal abscess.

I hate lying.

I didn't want to spoil anything.

I need to dissect
the splenorenal ligament.

Metz.

Hey, okay.

Pierce just controlled
the gastric bleeds with clips,

and now grey is finishing
taking out the spleen.

All right, now, um...
He's upset about dad.

He's obviously having some sort
of emotional breakdown,

so we'll get him
a psych consult.

No, we won't.

Curt's crazy.
This makes no sense.

All right, the only thing
that does make sense right now

is that after the surgery,
you will talk to curt...

Yeah.
And you will listen to curt
tell you her good news,

and it is good news.

And you will listen,

and you will tell her
that you love her

and tell her that
you'll always be here for her.

Okay, so after
the fetoscope is inserted,

then I will deploy the shunt,

and you'll manipulate
the camera, right?

You're a hypocrite.

I beg your pardon?

You, uh, were so high and mighty
when I was boffing Graham.

Which one was it?
Which resident did you Sully?

Oh, god.
I knew that you would...

[ Chuckles ]

You can't suddenly become
interesting and then clam up.

It... it was a year ago,
and she's gone now.

Weren't you married
last year?
Yes.

No. Well,
we... we were broken up.

I thought you just split.

This was a different ti...
[Sighs]

I cheated on Callie, okay?

Oh, my god.

How have you been
hiding this from me?

Hiding what?

The dirt.
You're dirty.

[ Scoffs ]

And here I thought
you were no fun at all.

Oh, stop it.
I'm...

You're a dirty, dirty girl.

[ Laughs ]

You're dirty.

Minimal swelling.
I like that.

Hey, can I get an e.T.A
on when you're closing

just so I can prep
the leg?
One last vessel here.

So, she threw herself
down a flight of stairs

just to avoid telling him
yes or no?

Mm-hmm.

Have you met the boyfriend?

Wilson, go let him know that her
brain surgery was successful.

Bring tissues.

[ Chuckles ]

Oh.
Poor guy.

Poor guy?

I'm sewing her brain shut
right now.

Oh, Todd's the problem here?

Why?
'Cause he cares too much?

He feels too much?

He's... he's willing
to devote himself fully

to another person.
That's the problem?

If it makes the other person
want to pass out, yeah.

Well, then that's it.

That's why I can't
pick people up anymore,

because I don't know
how to put them back down.

That's why I have no game.

I used to have game.

I had such game.

Yeah?

I used to be fun and cool
and sexy and go to bars

and do this thing
where you make eye contact once

and look away.

Just reel them in
without a word.

Such game.

Hey, what was your secret?

Drugs.

I was on drugs.
Mm.

So, I'm leaving out

the terrible,
terrible repercussions,

but ever since I got off
the drugs, I've gotten worse.

Now I'm just all mumbling
and vomiting words

and no cool, no sexy,
no game at all.

Same here.
Game over.

I want to be clear...
I am in no way

endorsing narcotics
as a dating aid.

Understood.

So, dinner's coming?

Yes, mom.

You still haven't told me.
How's April?

Mom, she's all right.

And I'm fine.

We're doing okay.

Mm-hmm.

I don't believe that
for one second.

[ Sighs ] Mom,
what do you want me to say?

Mom, she's sad, obviously.

April is angry, okay?

About the baby, about god.

She just needs her space.

And I can't help her.

I just make her crazy,

which just makes me
feel useless.

She doesn't need space so much
as the illusion of space.

You should do what I do.

Stay out of her way,
but not too far.

Find something else
to occupy your mind.

Work is good.

Now, be close,
but just out of sight.

And you'll be there for her
when she's ready.

Okay, I'm pretty sure what
you just described is stalking.

Your abdominal closure
should be fine.

Is that what this weekend
was for you?

Something else
to occupy your mind?

I'm not cheating on my husband.

Then where were you?

It's really not that big a deal.

Then why are you being
so weird about it?

You have to tell me something.

I have to?

I lied for you.

I'm sorry if I put you
in a position

where you felt like
you had to lie for me,

but that doesn't make this
any of your business.

Okay, maybe not.

I just [Sighs]

I thought we were
finally getting somewhere.

You trusted me with your kids.

I trust my babysitter
with my kids.

That doesn't mean
I owe her my life story.

Pierce, I'm sorry.

No. No, it's fine.
It's fine.
That came out wrong.

You're right.

Just do me a favor.

Next time, call your babysitter.

Leave me out of it.

Oh, there she is.
Are you all right?

How is she?
Is she all well again?

She's gonna be fine.
Both surgeries went very well.

Thank you. Thank...

Thank you.
Mm-hmm.

Hill.
I'm gonna take you home.

I'm gonna make sure
that you have

everything you need, all right?

You tell him right now.

Todd.

You have been so sweet,

and you have been so kind,

and I have been unfair to you.

No, no.
Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

No, don't worry about me.

Uh...

I love you.
I'm right here.

And I'm never leaving you.

Ever.

Oh, Hillary.
Hillary?

Hillary?!
Oh.

She fainted!

Help her!

For god sake.

She can't take another fall
like that.

Todd, what Hillary's
trying to tell you

is that she wants to
break up with you.

What?
I'm so sorry.

I know that all you want
is to help her,

but she doesn't want that.

She doesn't deserve it.
She's faking this right now.

What?
Todd.

You deserve someone
who wants you there, you know?

Um, someone who needs
the kind of attention

that only you can give,

and it's not gonna be Hillary,
okay, and it shouldn't be.

[ Groans ]

And you will be fine...
Without her,

and it may take a while
to find the right person,

but you will find her.

You should start looking, okay?

She's right.

Don't waste another minute.
Start right now.

[ Sighs ]

There.

Thank you.

Just... just tell me,
where's this all coming from?

It's coming from me.
This is who I am.

Since when?

I mean, what,
you just suddenly decided...

Benji, I've known since I was 5.

5?
[ Chuckles ]

Because, you know, I wanted to
play for the bears when I was 5

because you don't know crap
when you're 5.

I knew this.

Yeah, but why didn't I know it?

We shared a room for 18 years.

You ever have that dream
where you're pushed out on stage

and everybody knows their lines
except you?

And you're in some costume

or you're naked or...
Or whatever.

And you're just trapped there.

You can't...

That was my whole life.

Every day of my life,
pretending.

Benji, I'm tired of pretending.

I just want to be happy
with who I am.

Can you understand that?

So, now you give a damn
about what I think?

Now suddenly it matters
that I understand?

You know it does.

I'm... I'm just supposed to
be okay with this?

I-I'm just supposed to
accept this?

Wa... wai...

Okay, I'll go talk to him.

Don't bother.

How soon do you think
I can get out of here?

I don't imagine
you need a ride to the airport.

I have a car.

What are you doing?

You scrub in with me,
you take over the O.R.

So you can call your son
on a phony consult?

I needed to know
how he was doing.

I'm talking about us.

What about us, Richard?

It looks like
you got what you wanted

and you're running out the door.

You used me.

I seem to recall your saying
I use people all the time...

Cristina Yang, the Harper Avery.

So, why are you
so surprised now?

I was angry
when I said those things.

And I was angry
when I heard them.

[ Sighs ]

I thought
after the last few days, I...

I thought
we'd moved on from that.

Richard, you were here for me
in a terrible time.

I appreciate that,
but I'm still me,

and you're not okay
with who I am.

One minute, you find
a powerful woman attractive,

the next minute,
your feelings are hurt.

You can't have it both ways.

You're gonna have to
figure that out

before we move on anywhere.

I went to the airport,
I got through security,

I went up to the gate,

they called my boarding group,
and I just stood there.

¶ To seeing shows in evening
clothes with you ¶
I froze.
I didn't get on the plane.

I watched the plane take off
from behind the glass...

¶ From nervous touch
to getting drunk ¶
I got in my car,
and I left.

Oh, Meredith.

I didn't know
how to tell anyone...

¶ To staying up
and waking up with you ¶
That I didn't get on the
plane to visit my husband.

¶ But now we're sleeping
at the edge ¶
so, I drove to one
of those hotels by the airport.

¶ Holding something
we don't need ¶
and you stayed there
by yourself all weekend?

Yeah.

¶ All this delusion
in our heads ¶

¶ is gonna bring us
to our knees ¶
you were embarrassed,
so you hid.

I...I kind of get that.

¶ So come on, let it go ¶

well, it's...
No, no, it's okay.

¶ Just let it be ¶
you don't have to say
another word.

¶ Why don't you be you? ¶
that must've been awful.

Those cheap hotel rooms
are horrible.

¶ And I'll be me ¶
you must've felt terrible
and lonely and embarrassed...

¶ Everything's that's broke ¶
And I just made it worse
by bugging you...

¶ Leave it to the breeze ¶
And asking you questions
when I should've just...

¶ Why don't you be you? ¶
I totally understand
why you didn't tell me.

¶ And I'll be me ¶
if that happened to me,

I wouldn't have told anybody,
either.

¶ And I'll be me ¶ I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry,

but thank you...
For telling me.

Thank you for understanding.

¶ From throwing clothes
across the floor ¶

¶ to teeth and claws ¶
Benjamin Warren,
I'm so disappointed in you.

¶ And slamming doors at you ¶
she's your family.

I get it, okay?

You're so evolved,
so tolerant and quick to adjust.

¶ If this is all
we're living for ¶
and I'm just
a... a dumb caveman.

Well, you don't have to be.

¶ Why are we ¶
25 years, Miranda.

¶ Doing it, doing it,
doing it anymore ¶
I counted them up today.

That's how long
we either shared a bedroom

or an apartment
or a damn tent in the woods.

It's a long time for this
not to come up, don't you think?

She wasn't ready.

If this was anyone else, there
wouldn't even be an issue...

¶ Trying to fit your
hand inside of mine ¶
But I told him everything.

¶ When we know
it just don't belong ¶
I mean, from my first crush...
kahlia hogg, fourth grade...

¶ could make me feel right, no ¶
to the night I proposed
to the gorgeous Miranda Bailey.

¶ Whoa ¶
and everything in between.

¶ Try to push this problem
up the hill ¶

I had to tell curt.

¶ When it's just too heavy
to hold ¶
first thing, always.

¶ Think now's the time
to let it slide ¶
but now he... he's got the
biggest thing in his life...

¶ So come on, let it go ¶
And he waited 25 years
to tell me.

¶ Just let it be ¶
how's that supposed to
make me feel?

Well, this isn't about you, Ben.

It's her song.

So get off the stage,
let her sing it.

No, could you please stop
with that?

¶ Everything's that's broke ¶
[ Sighs ]

¶ Leave it to the breeze ¶
I feel like it was all a lie,
you know?

¶ Let the ashes fall ¶

¶ forget about me ¶
our whole life...

¶ Come on, let it go ¶
he lied to me.

¶ Just let it be ¶
well,
curt needs your help now.

¶ Why don't you be you? ¶
yeah, well, it's...
it's a little late to ask.

[ Chuckles ]

Should've asked 25 years ago.

Mnh-mnh.
I'm... I'm done with him.

¶ And I'll be me ¶

her.

[ Sighs ]

Curt.

Um, this is Dr. Avery.

He's a plastic surgeon.

Um, you might want to
hear him out.

It's... it's your call.

You have a name yet?

Guessing you're not sticking
with Curtis.

Rosalind.

That's a beautiful name.

So, can I call you
rosalind then?

'Cause I don't know
what we're waiting for.

Hey, I'm Jackson.

Now, let's go over
some ground rules.

First, those off-shelf hormone
treatments you're taking...

No.
Those are over.

From now on, everything
that goes in your body

is approved and regulated
by this hospital.

Understood?

Absolutely.

Okay.

You see a therapist?

Not for a while.

Okay.
Well, it's time to start again.

So, we'll get started
with a full medical history.

You know, I used to be fun.

I used to skate around the halls
of this hospital.

Why don't you?

Oops.

My bad.

I used to go dancing.

I used to...

[ Clears throat ]

flirt and be flirted with.

Now I live in a house
full of naked people

and all of my friends
are her friends,

and all I have is work
and I never want to go home.

Mm.
I had a busy, busy life.

I sat on all these boards...

Pacific ballet, Seattle opera.

Whatever was very important
to my ex.

Used to be so worried
about what he thought of me,

what my peers thought,
what everybody thought.

But now I do what I want,
when I want, and it's sweet.

I have to tell you, Robbins,

my life is so much better
now that I have nothing.

I mean,
I can't recommend a tumor,

but you should try it.

You should go home.

I am home.

Why do you think
I stole this couch?

We can't waste a minute.

I'm gonna stay here until, uh...

Until it's over.

Whatever that means.

Then I'll stay with you tonight.

You should know...

I'm not gonna have sex with you.

Sh-shut up!

Y...

[ both laugh ]

Uh, hi.

Hey. Sorry.

Do you drink wine?

Uh...

I just wanted to visit,

and people bring wine sometimes
when they're...

¶ And all the kids now,
they come runnin' ¶
Going to visit
another person.

¶ It's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶
especially if they have...

¶ and all the parents,
they keep callin' ¶
they bring a bottle.

¶ But there's no answer ¶
that's... that's water.

So...

¶ 'Cause it's the weekend ¶
because I don't drink wine.

I... I don't drink
at all.

Not anymore.

So, I brought water, and...

I'm sorry.

I have literally no game.

[ Chuckles ]

¶ Working class to the bone ¶
I should go.
It's sparkling.

¶ And I know you're tired
of hearing it ¶
mm-hmm.
Lime.

¶ It's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶
just wanted to say hi.

¶ This right here
is the d.O. Proletariat ¶

hey, do you want some water?

¶ It's the weekend ¶ I...

¶ come on the weekend ¶
not thirsty.

Okay, wait.

Amelia.

Stop walking.

[ Sighs ]

¶ And all the kids now,
they come runnin' ¶

¶ it's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶
I'm gonna kiss you now,
so don't... don't say anything.

¶ And all the parents,
they keep callin' ¶

¶ but there's no answer ¶

¶ 'cause it's the weekend ¶

¶ hell, yeah, I just got paid ¶

¶ it's time
to get this started ¶

¶ wait till I stake my claim ¶

¶ forget that
I was ever your whipping boy ¶

¶ tonight I might
just lose my way ¶

it's scary to reveal
everything about ourselves.


¶ But I'll never get
downhearted ¶
and now you can go home.

I'm just... um... now I'm
gonna... I'm gonna go home.

¶ Forget that
I was ever your whipping boy ¶

which is... That way.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

¶ And all the kids now,
they come runnin' ¶

¶ it's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶

¶ and all the parents,
they keep callin' ¶

¶ but there's no answer ¶

¶ 'cause it's the weekend ¶

¶ hell, yeah, I just got paid ¶

¶ it's time
to get this started ¶
fear makes us
hold ourselves back.

¶ Wait till I stake my claim ¶
is that so wrong?

¶ Forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
man: Here you go.

Okay, this is taking too long.

¶ Tonight, I might just lose
my way ¶
dance with me.

¶ But I'll never get
downhearted ¶
okay.

Okay.

¶ Good friends
keep enemies at bay ¶

¶ forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶

maybe. Probably.

¶ Tonight,
I might just lose my way ¶

¶ but I'll never get
downhearted ¶

¶ good friends keep enemies
at bay ¶
oh. [ Laughs ]

But still...
Shh.

¶ Forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
It helps
to be a little sneaky,

a little protective.

It's not safe to just blurt out
all of our secrets.


Never got on the plane.
I never went to D.C.

Now you want to blab.

Where's Pierce?

What is she... morning shift?
I get nights?

I went to a hotel.

¶ Working class to the bone,
and I know you're tired... ¶
what?
With who? Do I know him?

No. By myself.

¶ It's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶
you didn't want to
see Derek?

¶ This right here
is the d.O. Proletariat ¶
I did.
Too much.

¶ It's the weekend,
come on the weekend ¶
what if I got off the plane
and he wasn't happy to see me?

What if he didn't smile?

That would be bad.

That would mean it's done,
it's over.

So what?
You just head out alone?

I mean,
why didn't you just come back?

¶ And all the kids now,
they come runnin' ¶
I was going to.

¶ It's the weekend,
it's the weekend ¶
and then... I didn't.

¶ And all the parents,
they keep callin' ¶

¶ but there's no answer ¶

¶ 'cause it's the weekend ¶
and it was amazing.

¶ Hell, yeah, I just got paid ¶

¶ it's time
to get this started ¶
it was just me
for three days.

¶ Wait till I stake my claim ¶
all by myself.

¶ Forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
I wasn't anybody's wife
or doctor or mother.

¶ Tonight,
I might just lose my way ¶

and I kind of liked it.

¶ But I'll never get
downhearted ¶
[ Laughs ]

¶ Good friends
keep enemies at bay ¶

¶ forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
if I had gone to D.C.,
we would've fought

or we would've talked
about fighting,

¶ hell, yeah,
I just got paid ¶
and I don't want to talk
anymore.

¶ It's time
to get this started ¶
I don't want to fight
anymore.

[ Sighs ] Alex.

¶ Wait till I stake my claim ¶

¶ forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
I don't want to
leave him.

¶ Tonight, I might just lose
my way ¶
but I definitely do not want to
be with him right now.

¶ But I'll never get
downhearted ¶
we can't just
lay all the truth out there...

¶ Good friends keep enemies
at bay ¶
Expose ourselves to god
and everybody.

¶ Forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
hey,
have you seen my... oh!

¶ Hell, yeah,
I just got paid ¶
oh. A little warning...

¶ It's time
to get this started ¶
When people
are over would be nice.

I told her to wear pants.

¶ Tonight, I might just lose
my way ¶
I don't have to wear pants.

¶ But I'll never get
downhearted ¶
it's perfectly fine
if I don't wear pants.

Doesn't make me stupid.

'Cause once the truth is out...

I'm gonna marry that girl.

¶ Forget that I was ever
your whipping boy ¶
We have to face it
ourselves.

[ Sighs ]

I don't know
what's gonna happen with us.
