Meredith: They say
you fight fire with fire.

We do it in medicine
all the time.

Owen won't say what it's about,

and nobody knows this Riggs,
except Kepner.

Maybe Kepner knows.

We cut you
to repair your injury.

Is that snow?

We hurt you to heal you.

Are we still good?

Yeah, we're good. I told you.

I'm just making sure.
We're good.



Good with what?

Nothing. Don't worry about it.

Guys, it's like 60 degrees out.
That can't be snow.

We stoke the flames.

They just keep circling
each other.

I keep thinking one of them's
gonna pull out a switchblade.

Oh, it's about a chick.

When two guys hate each other,
it's usually about a chick.

Is that snow? Really? Where?

Yeah, you're right. That looks
like snow out there. Huh.

But playing with fire
is a dangerous game.

Well, you know they're saying
it's about you.

What?

You and Riggs.
A torrid affair in Jordan.



That's... oh, no!
That is not at...

Don't worry. I shut that down.

God! Thank you. Geez!

No, I think it goes back
further than that,

because I worked with Riggs,

and he never even mentioned
knowing hunt.

Oh, my gosh. Hunt and Riggs...

What... what if they had
the torrid affair?

[ Laughs ] Come on.

No. Just think about it.

Wartime, no rules,
men in uniform, kissing.

Huh.

Oh, no way. [ Laughing ] What?

I didn't say it. Arizona did.

I heard that Riggs
lost a patient on the table

and tried to blame it on hunt.

Yeah, the gossip mill is getting a
little out of hand, don't you think?

Oh, no, it's not gossip.

It's, um [Snaps fingers]
what do you call it?

Scuttlebutt. No.

[ Laughs ]

Callie, um...

You and Arizona...
Before you guys split...

You did the counseling thing,
right?

Oh, god. Yeah.

Yeah.

I heard that you were looking
more for a lawyer.

You heard that, huh?

Scuttlebutt.

Sure.

[ Sighs ]

You're on my service today.
I am.

You're good with that, right?

I mean, you and I...

You don't have any problem
working under me, right?

Well, I think
we've established that.

[ Chuckles ]

No, but see, this...

This is exactly
what I'm talking about.

Outside of that door,
we are professionals.

There can be none of this.

Yes, ma'am.

Hey.

For the road.

[ Door closes ]

Is it snowing?

Is it what I think it is?

Uh-huh. Just got the call.
It's all coming here.

Okay. How many
are we looking at?

Over 40.
Where's the protocol for this?

Bailey... got to be
some guidelines.

Look, I-it's your first crisis.

You'll be fine. I know!

As soon as I can find the...

Bailey, there's nothing you need
in those binders.

Okay, you just have to
take things as they come.

But you won't see them
until they're right here.

You know what to do.

If you're in control,
they're in control.

Oh, and, uh, stand on the stairs
when you talk to them.

Makes them feel watched over.

Is that why you do that?

[ Laughs ]

Four crews of firefighters

were trapped battling wildfires
east of town.

We have at least
40 injuries en route.

I said
we would take all of them.

40? We're gonna hit capacity,
and...

We will take all of them.

We're looking at second-,
third-, and fourth-degree burns,

smoke inhalation,
and some traumas.

All non-critical...
Patients, um...

Are being transferred
to Seattle pres and Tacoma.

[ Clears throat ]

This entire hospital
is now a burn-treatment center.

If you are a little rusty...

Did you stay here again last night?
Yeah.

You sleep at all?

I'm fine.

Plastics will be available
for consult,

but they will be in high demand
and cannot be everywhere.

If you need them...

It's definitely because of a chick.
Shush.

Residents, stay with
your assigned attendings

unless needed in the burn unit
or in the pit.

Uh, everyone who is on call
has been called in.

This is an
all-hands-on-deck situation.

You with Grey again?
I'm always with Grey.

Which is the problem for Callie,
so I'm a nun, basically.

[ Snorts ]

Worship at the altar of
our lady of general surgery.

That's a good choice. Mm.

You know,
I tried dating an attending.

It just... It doesn't work.

Prioritize according to...
Wilson does it.

Yeah, well, Wilson got lucky.

Triage in the E.R.

Send the critical patients
to the burn unit or the O.R.

Dr. Avery is your point person
on this, okay?

Uh... Let's see.

Then that's...

That's it, people.

Okay. Get to work.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

I'll jump on triage and the
most acute injuries. April...

You take
any compromised airways.

Stop running away from me.

Eventually, we have to find time
and talk about this.

It's been three days already.

Now is not that time.

We have time
before it gets crazy.

It's already crazy. My E.R.'s
about to be jam-packed.

I-I-i don't have time,
and neither do you.

We would
if you'd stop talking about

how much damn time we don't have.
[ Elevator bell dings ]

[ Helicopter blades whirring ]

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Man: Choppers are stacking up.
Let's move!

Let's go! Move!

[ Indistinct talking on P.A. ]

[ Elevator bell dings ]

People, if you are not
on your specialty,

you are on burn.

Consider yourselves

burns and plastics
specialists for the day.

We treat, debride, admit.

If you have any questions
at all, you come find me.

[ Siren wailing ]

Take him to trauma 2.
This way. Over there.

Patient has
partial thickness burns

on his chest and abdomen
and severe smoke inhalation.

Let's get to the part
with the metal in his chest.

He lost his footing
in the smoke,

he fell into the ravine,

and a steel spike
broke his fall.

We need a heart ultrasound.
Let's page cardio. Get Pierce.

Okay. No problem. I'm here.

I can wait for Pierce.

I said I got it.

Okay. He has blood
in the pericardium,

but I can't tell if it's
penetrated the ventricle.

Blake, get Pierce. Okay.

Most likely the only reason
he isn't bleeding out

is because the metal
is blocking the hole.

That's an interesting theory.

Only one way to find out.
Blake, let's pull out the spike.

Oh, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa!

We're gonna take it out
in the O.R.,

where we can control
the bleeding.

There might not be any bleeding,

so let's don't fill up an O.R.
until we know that we have to.

And risk him bleeding out
before we ever get up there? No.

No one is touching this thing
until we get Pierce.

[ Clanks ] There.

Now she can get a proper look.

Who the hell
do you think you are?

If I say wait, we wait.

You are out of control!
And I will not stand for it.

Hey, Kepner, how are we?

Stretched.

I need somebody to take a look
at the guy in bed four!

Um, I will do it.
I will see bed four.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Tyler... how's Tyler?

His hand's pretty bad.
He might lose some fingers.

You tell him he'll live.

[ Coughing ]

I'm Dr. Bailey.
How we doing here?

I'm fine.

I've been burned so many times,
my wife says I smell like bacon.

[ Chuckles ] You need to put
that mask back on.

You need to check on
these other guys.

They're in worse shape than me.

We will take care of all of you, okay?
[ Labored breathing ]

So just let me have a look.

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

[ Coughing ]

How bad is it?

[ Labored breathing ]

[ Ultrasound pulsing ]

He's bleeding right there.
In the pericardium.

It's not much. It'll likely
resolve on its own.

Or it won't
and it will be too late.

Admit him, monitor him closely,

and tell me
if his pressure drops.

Book an O.R.

Absolutely. I'll book an O.R.

She's my god.

Hey! Hold on.
Do you have time now?

Not really, I'm on my way
to surgery with a maniac.

Yeah, so let's do it now
before we both get too busy.

All right, well, let's
make it quick, because...

Alex, could you...
Wilson, go away!

Just give us a minute, okay?
We're busy.

Thanks a lot.

She'll be fine.

W-we were taking a... Break
at base camp.

And... Casey, I'm gonna need
you to stop talking, okay?

There's severe lung damage here.

Book an O.R.

Casey, we're gonna take you

into surgery right away.

O.R.'s backed up.
They're saying it's an hour.

Tell them
that's not good enough.

No. Take these other guys first.

I'll decide who goes where,
all right?

Hey, I did my best
to get those guys out.

You got to make sure
they're okay.

Can you do that?

Yeah.

Let's get him to the burn unit
while we wait for the O.R.

Excuse me.

Coming through.

Chief, the burn unit is full,
and I need beds down here.

We can't take any more.
We're already at capacity.

I have patients
with extensive burns

that are on gurneys
in the hallway.

Well, we need to start diverting to other
hospitals. No, no. We're not doing that.

Well, I need to know
what we are doing, please.

Do I need to notify
Seattle pres?

Chief!

I said we're not
turning firefighters away.

Come with me.

Okay!

You folks, take your food to go.

All of these tables go.
Put away this food.

We triage here.

I need gurneys in lines of three
all the way back.

Minor and first-degree burns
are going the pit, guys.

Criticals can go
to any available I.C.U. Bed.

We need burn supplies,
surgical trays,

gowns, gloves at every station.

This enough room?

This will work.

[ Sighs ]

I know you have to do
your doctor thing,

but maybe you can keep
the full moon under wraps.

[ Chuckles ]

That's the part
that I kind of need to see.

Oh, you can see
whatever you want.

It's the guys in my squad.
I'll never hear the end of it.

I'll be discreet. No free shows.

No guy has seen that

since a middle school
wardrobe malfunction.

Hopefully,
you're an expert, a...

What, a butt doctor?

That can't be right.
You can fix my butt, right?

Yes. The burn is confined
to one cheek,

and luckily, I have a good one
to compare it to.

Wow. Thank you very much.

No. No, no, no.
I... and I didn't mean...

No. I'll take it.

Yeah. It's...

It'll do the job.

[ Man screams ]

Hang in there, Turner.

God.

Here I am,
complaining about my butt burn.

Don't do that.

Don't feel guilty
for not getting hurt.

I mean, I work a job

where in order
to make a house payment,

to put food on the table,
there have to be fires.

And big fires mean overtime,
hazard pay.

You work like hell
to put them out, but...

A dirty, little part of you
is thinking, "burn, baby, burn,"

and you hate yourself.

It sucks.

I make my living
off of sick babies.

You get it.

All right. You feel that?
[ Groans ]

Dr. Hunt? Give him morphine.

Owen? Mm-hmm.

Your mom's boyfriend...
He's a firefighter, right?

Yeah. Why?

Because she's here... Your mom.

Woman: Nurse's station.
How can I help you?

Cross, take over.

Mom? Owen!

John was working the fire.
They said they brought him here.

Have you seen him?

Uh, hang on, hang on.

He is in surgery.

Oh, dear god. Dr. Grey and...

[ Sighs ]

Kepner, page Pierce to O.R.
3. Okay.

Mom, stay right here, okay?

There. I was right.

There's blood
in the pericardium.

I could've relieved it
with a needle downstairs.

You did not need to open him up.

Well, I did, because we're not
in a tent in a war zone.

Meredith...

Hunt, is there a problem?

Grey, the patient on your table
is my mother's boyfriend.

How's it look?

It's not good.

I didn't ask you!

Dr. Grey cracked his chest
when she shouldn't have...

Shut your mouth,
step away from the table,

and scrub out.

Hey, what's going on here?

You need to scrub in for Riggs.

What? Why?

Hunt, I got a guy
in the burn unit

missing part of his chest wall.

I don't have time...

Owen, I have this.

Dr. Pierce, we're fine here.

Riggs, step back.

Okay, hunt, I don't work
for you, okay?

I work for Pierce.

If she says leave,
then I'll leave.

Hunt, is there a reason

that I should be removing Riggs
from this surgery?

Are you okay?

Yeah. No. My mom's boyfriend.

The firefighter. Yeah.

He's here. Yeah.

Meredith is working on him
right now with Riggs.

And that's a problem.

Owen, talk to me.
Why is this guy...

I just don't want him
near my family.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Proximal humerus fracture.

All he needs is a sling
for a few weeks.

Yeah, but I've got
a full thickness burn

on his hand and forearm.

Will a graft even take?
You've got bone exposure.

Give me a minute
to think about it.

I'd recommend it.

Yeah, the graft? Counseling.

It gave us a sense of where
we were, which was nowhere.

But still...

Second-degree burns
on the chest.

Do you even want to work it out
with Kepner?

Can we not do this right now?

Sure.

[ Gasps ]

But one thing our therapist said
that turned out to be true...

Do not have sex while
you're sorting things out.

It's messy.
It's confusing. No sex.

You guys had sex.

Yeah. [ Laughs ]

We did, too.

It's... Messy.
It's really messy.

I think you can both get what you need.
Yeah, I don't know.

I mean, I feel like
it's so complicated.

No, no, no, no, no.
I'm talking about his hand.

Right.

We do a living graft
with an abdominal pedicle flap.

We literally sew his hand
into his abdomen.

He'll have a graft and a sling.

[ Chuckles ] That's good.

Yeah.

[ Gasps ] I found the one!

Oh, good.

Now you can help me find
an arterial line kit.

Not the one.

A one maybe,
but at least an option.

I found an option.

She's funny and cute,

and she actively contributes
to public safety.

She's one of the firefighters?

Yes. And she's great.

And I think
that she thinks I'm great,

but I need you to find out.

Sure.

Why don't you write her
a little note...

You know, the ones with
the boxes that you can check...

And I'll pass it along.

Mm.

Mm. Don't you think
that sounds a little childish?

Yes, it does!

I'm not gonna wingman
a patient for you!

I set the Mayfield.

Let's just drain the clot and
bring him back to the burn unit.

Maybe it was, like,
a classified mission gone bad.

What?

Hunt and Riggs.

Maybe that's why
he won't talk about it.

Maybe it was like
a secret mission,

and one of them
double-crossed the other.

I don't want to talk about it.

Well, everyone
is talking about it.

I don't want to gossip about it.

Dr. Hunt's a sleepwalker

and a sleeptalker, actually.

Enough!

It's not gossip. It happened.

I found him in an on-call room
totally asleep, standing there.

He was all, "help, help!"
It was freaky!

What did he say exactly?

"Do something," I think he said?

I don't know. I was a little...

I was scared.

Wait. Cross...

They'll probably take a big
piece of skin from your back

called a latissimus flap.

Now, it's gonna leave
a pretty big scar.

[ Weakly ] Scars are okay.

They show... Where you've been.

My leg is the kelso fire of '08,

and my shoulder's

the yakima valley of '13.

And... oh... that...

That's, uh, my oven.

Birthday cake
for my wife Ruth's 50th.

[ Laughs ]

[ Coughing ]

Casey... Casey,
we have to intubate you now.

No. I can breathe.

Ruth's on her way.

I w-want to talk to her first.

Sir, we really need to give
your lungs a rest, okay?

No. I don't need it.

Hey...

I don't want it.

I think we can give Casey
a few more minutes

till his wife gets here.

But you put that mask on.

Deal. [ Chuckles ]

He's being ridiculous.
We have to tube him, right?

His left lung
is partially collapsed.

The other one is damaged
from smoke inhalation.

It's causing his heart to fail.
[ Cellphone chimes ]

Yeah, and he's starting to have
arrhythmias from rhabdo.

Oh. I got to go. Yeah, go.

We need to clear an O.R.

Uh, no. Casey's right.

We need to be treating
the more urgent cases first.

I'm sorry,
but what's more urgent

than a guy with a hole burned
in his side?

A case that will survive
surgery.

So what? We're just supposed to
tell him he's gonna die?

We don't have to tell him.
He knows.

Make him as comfortable
as you can,

and tell me
when his wife gets here.

We are never eating
in that cafeteria again.

I'm a little busy right now.
Do you need something?

I needed a break.
I thought I'd take a minute.

You know when I had a minute?

This morning,

when you and Meredith
were whispering in the hallway.

I'm sorry about that.

And she yelled
"get away" in my face

like I was a stray dog.

[ Chuckles ] Come on.

It's not funny.
That's not what she meant.

God, you always defend her,

even when she's being
a complete bitch to me.

Look, don't do that. Don't call her that.
And why wouldn't you?

Everyone here
just follows her lead.

If you're out with Grey,
you're out, and I'm out.

Aw, you're not out. You're fine.
[ Sighs ]

She spent a year acting like
I didn't even exist.

So what is it? What? You think she
just sees you as my girlfriend?

She doesn't even see me as that.

She would show up in our bedroom

and kick me out
whenever she wanted to.

That hasn't happened
in a long time.

Yeah, because I hauled you
out of that house.

Oh, I'm...

I'm sorry.
You hauled me out of there?

I had to. She had
an all-access pass to you.

And you know what the worst part is?
Is that you let her.

Here I thought we decided to move in there
together. Because she's always your priority!

That is not true!

She has been through a lot!
Her husband died!

So what, that gives her
a license to treat me like crap?

No! No!

It means she has the license
to take her crap out on me!

It means I'm gonna be there
for her when she needs me,

'cause she's the only one
I can count on!

She's the only one?

Just I meant... [ Sighs ]

Look, she stood by me for years
when everybody else left,

no matter what.

I didn't mean... No, I get it.

You're taking her side again
'cause she is your priority.

You don't get to tell me
what my priorities are!

I have to focus on my patient.

Look, Jo...

Just go.

[ Sighs ]

Nathan: Last stitch repairs
the rupture in the heart wall.

3-0 prolene and pledget hold.

Blake, can you snip, please?

[ Monitor beeping ]

And hunt said this guy
was dating his mom, hmm?

Suction.

Blake, you heard that, right?

Suction here.

Hmm? [ Alarm blaring ]

He's fibrillating. Paddles.

Got it.

Charge to 10.

[ Paddles whine ]

Clear. [ Thump ]

Charge to 10 again.

No, 25, okay?
Let's don't screw around. 25.

25. Clear.

[ Thump ] This never would've
happened if you hadn't...

It absolutely would have.

We just wouldn't be here
to catch it. Clear!

[ Thump ]

All right, give me
1 milligram of adrenaline.

Okay, come on, come on. Damn it!

Okay, where's the adrenaline?

[ Alarm blaring ]

Oh!

[ Exhales deeply ] All right.

[ Exhales deeply ]

Well, the fire is 80% contained.

[ Muffled speaking ]

Okay.

My crew.

No losses today, Casey.

No. Many injuries,
but no losses.

You prepare them...

The best you can.

You can't control everything.

You can't control the wind,
you know?

You did everything you could.

Now...

What... what...
What can I do for you?

Uh, just waiting for Ruth.

Okay.

[ Labored breathing ]

This will heal nicely,
probably in about six weeks.

So, um...

Maybe we could
see each other again?

Like a follow-up appointment?

Oh, um, no. I don't mean...

I mean yes.

You can always make an appointment
with the admissions nurse.

But I di... you, um... Okay.

Can you just sit tight?

Well, don't sit tight.

Just... Be.

Just be.

Heh! I just tried to segue

from a wound closure
to a first-date invite.

Now, that's just clumsy.

Over her exposed butt.
That's creepy.

I need your help.

Can you just
go put a good word in?

I... you don't need me.
You're a smart, competent woman.

Stretch your wings, Robbins.
Stretch them out.

Feel the air.

Stretch them out. Feel the air.

Feel the air.

My wife needs to come home.

I mean [Chuckles]
I knew it was a good idea,

but looking at it up close

[chuckles]
It's pretty spectacular.

Yeah, yeah. It's a miracle
of the modern age.

So, what kind of sex was it?

Make-up sex or break-up sex?

It was... you know,
I-i have no idea, actually.

Bovie? Well, what did April say?

Nothing. She didn't say anything.
She's not talking to me.

She spent the last few months
hunting me down,

and now she just keeps
walking away.

Let's be done
talking about this now.

Agreed. Well, okay,

'cause, you know,
break-up sex is, um...

Well, it feels sad-happy.
It's an emotional potpourri.

All the feelings,
all the history,

all of it...
It's all just right there,

because it's...
You know, you just know.

You just know
that it's the last time,

and it's like taking in
all the air you can

before you go underwater.

It's like "do me or die."
Break-up sex is the best.

Yeah, but then you're broken up.

Huh. You know what?
You're right.

Make-up sex is better,

because make-up sex
is like coming up for air

when you thought
there wouldn't be any more air.

So it's like all is forgiven,

and you can throw off
your troubles and your clothes,

and you're like out of the dark
and into the light,

full speed ahead.

Oh, god, it's the best.

So... Which was it?

I'm not answering that.

Jackson.
I don't know, all right?

Because maybe I thought it was one thing
and she thought it was the other.

Ooh. What?

See? Messy.

But you know what's not messy?
This.

I mean, this... this...
This is elegant genius.

Mm. Mm-hmm.

I'll tell you one thing...

He is gonna be pretty surprised
when he wakes up.

[ Sniffles ]

I was just looking
for extra Betadine.

Which is right there.

So, obviously,
lamest excuse ever.

You can't just ignore me
forever.

You don't have to like me
or be my friend

or even be polite to me,

but at least acknowledge
that I exist.

Acknowledge that I'm a person
standing in front of you,

saying words.

[ Sighs ] Forget it.

[ Door slams ]

You got lucky. It wasn't luck.

He would have died
if I hadn't taken him in.

Amelia:
John's surgery went well.

His doctors expect
a full recovery.

He's not awake yet,
but you can see him.

Nathan?

[ Gasps ]

[ Sobbing ]

We don't think
Riggs and Owen's mom...

You don't think that's the thing?
No.

But do you think
Owen's mom is Riggs' mom?

Because that has happened
to me before.

Keep me updated
on how he's doing.

So, Riggs knows your mother.

[ Sighs ]

Owen, I want to help you.

Just talk to me.

Amelia, I'm not like you.

I don't need to talk
everything to death.

Listen to what I'm saying.

I do not want your help,
not with this.

Casey is conscious,

but he might not be able
to speak.

He can hear you, though.

But he's... He's not hurting?

No, no.
We've made him comfortable.

That's... That's all we can do.

[ Breathes deeply ]

Ruth...

His injuries are quite severe.

You may want to
prepare yourself.

¶ People say I'm crazy ¶

I've been preparing myself
for 30 years.

¶ Risking it all in a glance ¶

¶ and how you got me blind... ¶

I'm just gonna sit with him,
if that's all right.

Of course.

Mrs. hunt,
it's none of my business,

and I'm not asking,

but Owen is my friend,
and I am worried about him.

How worried do I need to be?

¶ ...here with me ¶

¶ I don't care who you are ¶

close the door, dear.

¶ What you did ¶

¶ as long as you love me ¶

¶ who you are ¶

¶ where you're from ¶

¶ what you did ¶

¶ as long as you love me ¶

[ monitor beeping ]

Hey, old man.

Mm.

They say the fire's almost out.

¶ I've tried to hide it
so that no one knows ¶

so this is it.

This is the one, huh?

¶ ...into my eyes ¶

ah.

¶ What you did
and where you're coming from ¶

Doug and Susan
are on their way, so...

¶ as long as you love me ¶

so don't worry.
I won't be alone.

They said that they love you,

and I told them
you love them, too.

[ Slurred ] I love you.

¶ I don't care who you are ¶

¶ where you're from ¶
you did good, Casey.

¶ What you did ¶ you did good.

¶ As long as you love me ¶

¶ who you are ¶

¶ where you're from ¶

¶ what you did ¶

¶ as long as you love me ¶
[ Flatline ]

¶ As long as you love me ¶

¶ as long as you love me ¶

you talked to Owen's mother?

Yeah.

What was that about?
Did you find anything out?

Meredith!

Look, it's not my thing.
It's Owen's thing.

And he asked me
not to talk about it, so...

He's talking to you?

Yeah, he did,
enough so that I can...

Why are you shutting me
out of this?

Because...

This does not concern you.

But it concerns you?
No, it doesn't.

I made a promise

that I would help him keep his
head above water. Promised who?

To Cristina.

So I am watching him,
and I am letting him be,

and I am not sticking my nose...

What does Cristina
have to do with this?

You're in some sort of
three-way trust circle

with Owen and his ex-girlfriend?

Ex-wife. God. Meredith,

you are the most loyal person
I have ever met

to everyone except me.

You're loyal to some woman
halfway across the world...

Yes, I am. When I am right here.

Cristina left you. I'm here.

I'm your sister.

You are not my sister.
Cristina is my sister.

You are Derek's sister,
and Derek is gone.

Dr. Grey, I changed
the mediastinal drains...

Get out!

Is this why you hate me?

'Cause I remind you of him?

Does it help you to hate me?

Asking you not to push me.

Am I like her...

Something you cling to
to keep the memory alive?

You are such a child.

You wrap her around you
like some sick widow shawl.

The widow Grey.

She's okay. She's moving on.

She'll never love again,
but she's holding it together.

That is crap.

You've given up.

You are crawling into
your little hole and dying.

You are hollow.

And Derek would be sick about it
if he could see it.

He would be disgusted.

I want you out of my house.

Done!

Thanks.

Hey.

Are you all right?

You can't touch me at work,

not in front of people,

like we're together
or something.

Like we're together?

Right. Well, maybe we should
just stop while we're ahead.

No. I'm just saying...

I know you want to keep things
professional,

but my feelings...

My feelings for you
are not professional,

not at all.

So... I'm calling this.

Where are you going?

To see my patient.

Well, I just did, and he's fine.

Well, if it's all the same
to you...

No, it's not.

He's stable. Grey has him.

You can just walk away...
Walk very far away, in fact.

Owen, listen.

I've already seen ma.

Okay? We talked. She...

Let me make this more clear.

Stay the hell away
from my family.

It's my family, too.

[ Groans ]

No, it's not.

It's not your family.
It is mine.

So, just use the crutches
until it doesn't hurt to walk.

It's not the walking
I'm worried about.

It's the sitting. [ Laughs ]

Well, when your sitting
improves, um...

I wonder if you'd like to get
a cup of coffee.

Charlotte!

Alice. Honey,
I told you I was fine.

I know, but then you didn't
pick up your phone,

and I thought...
You're okay, right?

You're okay? Yeah, yeah.

I'm okay, I promise.

This is Dr. Robbins.

She patched up my butt.

[ Chuckles ] Thank you.

Thank you.
She has a really good butt.

Yeah, she... Um, you're welcome.

You flew?

I crashed.

[ Sniffles ]

- Hey. Thank you.
- Okay. Thank you.

Hey. You want help?

No, I don't need help.

I know you don't need it.

You debrided, irrigated,
and cleaned all these burns?

Yeah. Despite
what some people think,

I know what the hell I'm doing.

I know y...

I'm not saying you're not
a good doctor. I'm...

[ sighs ]

I'm sorry for everything.

We started out together, and you just blew
right past me. I started to think that...

Jo, if they don't see what a good
surgeon you are, it's not your fault.

It's theirs.

I'm sorry, too.

I miss you.

Me too.

[ Sighs ]

Richard: You did well today,
doctor.

44 patients, 19 critical.

You lost only one.

Then why do I only feel the one?

That's the job.

"That's the job."

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Uh, it appears my doctors
are punching each other.

There's always a fire
to put out.

Same place?

I've been dreaming about
those jalapeño poppers.

Ah!

[ Siren wailing ]

Jackson: April! April, come on!

Stop, damn it! Come on.

Jackson, I've had a long day.

Yeah, we should probably
talk about that.

What is there to talk about?
We had sex. That's it.

That's not it,
and we should talk about that.

Fine.

Fine. Talk about it.

We had sex.

We had sex.

And that was...

Confusing. Amazing.

[ Chuckles ] Oh, man. It was
sure, it was also amazing,

but this is why I...
See? No! Stop, stop!

I'm not confused
about the situation.

I know exactly what it was.

Because it was...
It was amazing.

It felt good!

For the first time in forever,
it felt like us!

And then... Then I saw it.

I saw it on your face, Jackson.

This was it.

This was goodbye.

And then I thought,

"well, if we're over,
this is the way to go out."

At least this is
what I want to remember...

The amazing.

[ Voice breaking ]
I want to end where we began,

in a bed, in love,

and I just want to
keep us there for a minute.

And anything you say right now
is gonna ruin it,

so please just don't!

Don't you see?
This is what you do.

You just decide
how things are gonna go.

I am not the one deciding in this situation!
Of course you're the one deciding!

What?! April, you're
always deciding!

You decide to go to Jordan.

You decide to leave.
You decide to stay.

You decide you need me, then
you decide you don't. What?!

You decide we can talk.
You decide we cannot.

I don't want to talk because
I know what you're gonna say!

You're gonna say
you love me but...

You don't know what I'm going to say!
I'm pretty sure I do.

It doesn't matter! You don't!
Fine! T-t-then go ahead!

Say it.

Oh, my god! Jackson!
God, please, just say it!

¶ On a balcony in summer air ¶

I have feelings, too.

¶ The party, the ball gowns ¶

unprofessional ones.

A lot of them.

I like you.

I just...

I just can't like you at work.

It's difficult for me.

O-okay.

So can I like you and...

N-not like you at work?

Can you do that?

¶ And you were crying
on the staircase ¶

¶ begging me,
"please don't go" ¶

lock the door.

¶ And you said ¶

[ lock clicks ]

¶ "Romeo, take me
somewhere we can be alone ¶

¶ I'll be waiting ¶

¶ all there's left to do
is run ¶

¶ you'll be the prince
and I'll be the Princess ¶

¶ it's a love story ¶

¶ baby, just say yes" ¶

[ door opens ]

I need to talk to you.

I need to talk to you.

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

¶ We keep quiet ¶

¶ 'cause we're dead
if they knew ¶

¶ so close your eyes ¶

this isn't working.

I need someone in my corner,

and the more I look at it,
the only person I have is me.

Jo... a-and I don't
want to make you choose

between me and your friends...

Your friend...

But I can't keep feeling
like everyone's second choice,

especially not yours.

So, I'm gonna go stay
with Steph for a while.

Jo, stop.

¶ And you say ¶

¶ "Romeo, take me ¶ oh, my god.

¶ Somewhere we can be alone ¶
Alex...

¶ I'll be waiting ¶

yeah?

You suck at proposing!

What, you don't like it?
No, it's not... it's...

It's when you do it!

Either I'm falling apart,
or you're falling apart,

and then you just do
this crazy, sweeping thing.

What, do you think I got this
at the 7-Eleven?

Mer has been holding on to this
for a month

so you wouldn't see it
in my freaking underwear drawer.

All day, she's been trying
to pass it off to me

without you seeing it.

You think this
will make everything okay,

but you don't listen.

I am listening.

You're saying you need someone
in your corner.

I-I'm right here, Jo.

I'm in your corner.

¶ You got tired of waiting ¶
[ Sighs ]

I've been thinking about tonight

every day since I left
that jewelry store.

I would have asked you sooner,

but this was the first day
on the schedule

that I thought
you'd even be home.

Tonight was the night...
Is the night.

¶ When I met you
on the outskirts of town ¶

I've been listening,
and I'm listening now.

I love you.

¶ "Romeo, save me ¶

¶ I've been feeling so alone ¶

yes or no?

¶ I keep waiting for you
but you never come ¶

Meredith:
When we strike that match,

we like to think
we can control the burn.

¶ I knelt to the ground and
I pulled out a ring and said ¶

¶ I love you ¶

¶ and that's all I
really know ¶ [ Sighs ]

Hell of a day, huh?

Can I have a whiskey, please?
Neat.

Bartender: Sure.
Coming right up.

Can I get you one?

We like to think
we have any control at all.

No.

¶ Baby, just say yes ¶

a vodka tonic.

Vodka tonic.

Yeah, right away.

¶ Baby, just say yes ¶

here you go.

Thank you.

Cheers.

¶ Baby, just say yes ¶

¶ yes ¶

¶ baby, just say yes ¶

but fire is wildly difficult
to contain.

And just when you think

you've extinguished the Blaze...

[ Police radio chatter ]

Man: All right,
we'll load it up.

Bailey's looking for you.

Okay.

[ Ambulance doors close,
engine turns over ]

You have to pull it together.

You're getting yourself
in trouble.

I know.

It reignites.

It sucks in air,

and it burns hotter
and brighter than ever.

You never told me
you had a sister.

[ Inhales deeply ]
