Voltaire said
that the art of medicine

is amusing the patient while
nature cures the disease.

So according to one

surgeons aren't
really helpers.

Oh! Dr. Bailey.

Just the person
I was looking for.

Uh, do you live here now,

or do you fly back
from Germany

on a weekly basis,

and if so, why?

Oh.

Well, um...

I mean,
as it turns out...

I am pregnant.

With Owen's baby.

And Owen and Amelia Shepherd
are back together again,

and Amelia's sisters
have issues with me.

Rightfully so.
It... It's not undramatic.

It's not undramatic to
the point of it being comical.

And... And, still,
Dr. Bailey,

I need a job.
I really need a job.

I-I-I need to be occupied
with work,

and I... I need it badly.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Um, y-you're gonna
have to say

all of that again
to Alex Karev.

♪♪

You're on the board?
Yeah. I-I'm sorry.

I want to be there when...

No, no, I have
a dozen little kids

coming to my house
in a few hours.

You said you would help.

I don't know anything
about superheroes.

Well, you tell Bailey that
Uncle Alex is saving lives,

that he actually
is a superhero.

Yeah, right.
That'll definitely work.

Ooh, Dr. Karev,
can I walk with you?

Um, yeah, what,
do you live here?

Well, it's...
It's complicated.

Catherine!
You're back.

How are you feeling?
How am I feeling?

Why don't you tell me?

Since you seem to be
so good

at telling everybody
everything.

Catherine, I...
Save it.

You're fired from my team,
Dr. Grey.

And if you value your job
at this hospital,

I suggest you stay
out of my sight

until my fury passes.

♪♪

- Hey.
- Hey.

You look nice.

Thanks.
Cece's funeral.

Yes. How'd that go?

It was awful.

And beautiful.

A lot of her single clients
were there.

There will probably be
a lot of hookups tonight.

Fitting.
Yeah.

How are you doing?

Did you talk to your mom?
Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, we all
had dinner last night,

and we all have a surgery
together today, so...

You're doing a surgery?
Catherine's doing a surgery?

A pelvic exenteration that
spares the uterus, to be exact.

And the patient's
ready for us.

- Mm.
- All right.

Dr. Berjeron to the ICU.

Dr. Berjeron to the ICU.

Morning, Grey.

There's a trauma
coming in.

Yeah, that's why
I'm here.

That's how
you wait for a trauma?

How'm I supposed to wait?

I don't know.
Maybe a little less casually.

So...

Like, uh...

Yeah.

Hey, where's the rig?

It's not here yet.

See?

Jo knows how to wait
for a trauma.

No point in stressing out
until you have to.

I don't believe in that.

You don't believe in that?

Mnh-mnh.

And now
I stand up straight.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You look awful.

Thanks.

No, I mean, you should
go home if you're sick.

Uh. Pit's full of people who
look a lot worse than I do.

Yeah, flu season.
Yeah.

You're in scrubs?

Yeah.

I have to audition
for Pierce,

which is only
slightly enraging.

Did you know that Alex Karev
is interim chief?

I mean, time is so weird.

So, you're gonna work here?

And I find out
after the fact.

That's par
for the course.

Whoa, whoa,
wait a minute.

Where is this coming from?

You said that you wanted
to figure it out,

and that's what
I'm trying to do.

Yeah, me, too, but there's
a lot to figure out.

And this whole situation
is a mess.

Okay, let me remind you
that the reason

I upended my entire life
was for you

so that you could be part
of our baby's life.

Listen, Teddy,
you came to Seattle

the day
after Karev's wedding,

before me and Amelia

had even really
gotten back together.

You seemed pretty
back together to me.

Right, right,
and you took one look,

and you decided that
you had the whole picture.

Maybe if you'd
just talked to me,

been a little more
up front with me...

Your teenager
answered your door!

Maybe you would've saved
a lot of people a lot of pain,

but, no, you waited
five whole weeks to...

Wait, are you try...
A-Are you saying that somehow

it's my fault that you and
Amelia are back together again?

I'm just saying
it's a crap situation,

which is worse
than it would have been

had you been
a little more up front.

Had some
excellent nicknames,

but "Crap Situation"
might be my new favorite.

Her abdomen's distended. She may
have some internal bleeding.

Let's get an ultrasound.

Let's hang some LR
and a unit of O-neg.

She fell from
a hotel balcony?

Three floors up.
Apparently the railing broke.

Pelvis feels stable, but I want to
see an X-ray. Yes, Dr. Lincoln.

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God!

Natasha, I'm right here.

I'm right here.
Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Is she...

Is she
on any medications?

Has she had
any previous surgeries?

Um... uh, she... she gets
migraines sometimes, and...

And she has a scar from...
She had her appendix out.

Is... Is she... I'm...

We're getting married
tomorrow.

She didn't want me to see her
until she walked down the aisle,

and I...
She got her own hotel room.

Hey, hey, hey.
What's your name, buddy?

Garrett... Boland.

Garrett. Okay, well, the best
thing you can do to help Natasha

is to let the people
in this room

do what we know
how to do, okay?

Okay, okay.
Oh, God.

Let me show you
where to wait.

And I thought my wedding day
was a mess.

I'm sorry
I said that, Amelia.

We were fighting, and
it just... It happens.

Couples fight.

Oh, come on.
We're not a couple.

Who's not a couple?

Owen and Teddy Altman.
Only they are.

The baby really sells it.

Oh, there's a baby?

Do you mind?

You know, I do, actually.
We're busy.

Way too busy
to catch whatever it is

you're losing a fight against,
so... you can go.

Amelia, please.
Owen, he's right.

We're going up against
one of the nastiest tumors

I've ever seen.
We need to focus.

Altman's the tall
blonde, right?

I am trying to focus.

Uma Paxton, 25, here for
total pelvic exenteration

with flap reconstruction
for a recurrent vaginal tumor.

Not total, Dr. Helm.

We are preserving
the uterus.

Oh.

Wow, that's possible?

It is now.

Because I developed
the technique.

My first doctors blasted me
with chemo and radiation,

but it came back,

so they said I had to remove
most of my insides,

but Dr. Fox
found a silver lining.

- Dr. Webber?
- I'll make an incision

into your abdomen
and remove your rectum

to create a colostomy

while Dr. Fox
removes your bladder

and creates a urostomy.

And then
I will remove the tumor

and everything
but your uterus.

I'll lead on
your vaginal reconstruction.

We'll cover any defects with
skin and fat from your belly.

So...
not complicated.

Man, I didn't think
that I ever wanted kids

until I found out that I might
not be able to have any,

so thank you, Dr. Fox.

Uma, we've talked
about this before,

but now that
the day has come,

I really have to ask again.

This surgery's long,
it's complex,

and it's very personal.

Are you sure you're all right
with other doctors

watching from the gallery?

You're a pioneer,

and this could help save
more women like me.

So teach away.

All right, guys.
Let's do this.

I'm gonna
be right back, all right?

It's like
a plague in here.

Bronchitis, pneumonia,
some gastroenteritis.

Whoa, you okay?

Ohh. What do we got?

Right. Uh, Grey and Link
are in Trauma 2

with a woman
who fell from a balcony,

and almost everyone else
is flu-like symptoms.

Including you, I guess.

Look, if you want
to grab some rest,

I can page you
if anything's urgent.

- Incoming!
- Uh... Ohh.

- Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!
- I'm gonna muscle through.

Could you, uh,
prep an IV, uh,

bag of LR
and 4 milligrams of Zofran?

Yeah. You got it.
Thanks.

So, we have our
interdepartmental meetings,

M&Ms, lung tumor boards,
and such

in the conference room.

Oh, good,
you still do it there.

I-I moved it
from the lecture hall

to get a more open
and honest exchange.

"A more open
and honest exchange."

You don't say.

Well, it's just that my sister's
kinda wrecked right now

because you failed to have
an open and honest exchange.

I told them.

You told them too late.

Are we gonna be able to
work together, Dr. Pierce?

I've heard nothing but excellent
things about your work,

Dr. Altman,
and any minute now,

I will shove aside
my personal contempt

in favor of
professional courtesy.

Dr. Huser

On 3... 1, 2, 3.
What do we got?

Patient collapsed
at a convenience store.

Last BP 110 over 50,
pulse 82.

Ma'am, did you
lose consciousness?

Uh, no,
I don't think so.

Hey, guys,
what did you see?

She was like,
"Ow, my stomach."

Then she was like,
"Ow, my face."

Nice, guys. Real nice.

Ma'am, do you have
any other symptoms

uh, dizziness or headache?

Uh, yeah, headache because
Gabe just told me today

that his project
is due tomorrow...

- Quit touching me!
- You touched me first!

And I have the flu,
and I hate children,

- so life is punishing me.
- No! Let me go!

So if I could just get
something for my stomach

and some sedatives for the children...
Let me go!

- We'll be good to go.
- Hey, watch out.

Hey, guys, guys,
knock it off.

Should we call
their parents?

- I am their parents...
- It's your fault!

Ever since
my sister died,

and clearly,
I'm crushing it... Ow!

Abdomen's a little tender.

Uh, Schmitt, do you want
to see if CT's open?

Whoa, CT?
No, no, I'm fine.

I just have the flu,
and I already took antibiotics

I had left over
from last year, so...

Bad idea?

Unprescribed?
Yes.

Listen, I know
that you're stressed,

and maybe it is
just the flu, but...

Claire, if it isn't,

you're really gonna wish
that you'd stayed, okay?

Are you okay?

Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.

He sounds like me.

Free fluid in the pelvis
and abdomen.

X-rays are up.

Post-ops are done, Link.
What'd I miss?

You tell me.

She's got
a windswept pelvis.

"Windswept"?
It's a combo platter.

We got AP compression
on one side,

lateral compression
on the other.

You see the widened
SI joint here

and the sacral fracture
there?

Okay, well, I'd love
to get her up to the O.R.

for a neuro check.

And we can do an intra-op CT
when we get there.

100%. Let's do it.

Well, wait, aren't we gonna
stabilize her pelvis first?

Of course.
Nah.

"Nah"? She's got
a pelvic fracture.

You're not gonna at least
put a binder on her?

Nope.
We'll see you up there.

♪♪

All right.
She's hypotensive.

We got to move, people.

She's all prepped
for her ex-lap.

Okay, so what
made you think

that Link and I
would be a good match?

Okay, listen,
before I met Alex,

Link was the very best person
that I knew,

and Alex would say the
same thing about you, so...

Oh, come on.
Link's a great guy.

And Labradors
are great dogs.

They're always
happy to see you,

they're super cute,
and they're full of energy.

Okay, listen.
He is not a Labrador.

You just have to
get to know him.

Who's ready to put
a pelvis back together, huh?

I am.

I am ready.

Did you jog up here?

Ran up the stairs. Gets the
blood flowing, you know?

We got to save this lady.
She's getting married.

We have to save them all,
even the sad and lonely ones.

Is there another Dr. Grey
you thought I should ask out?

Okay, just relax
and try not to move, okay?

I haven't relaxed
in two years.

My mother used to say, "I hope
you have children someday",

and they're as awful to you
as you were to me."

And I'd say,
"Joke's on you, lady.

I'm never having kids."

And then Cynthia died,

and now I have
her two human tornadoes.

They're loud,
and they're smelly,

and they think
fart jokes are hilarious,

and they never stop eating.

I love them,
but they are disgusting.

I think I owe my mom
an apology.

Yeah, me too.

Whoa.

Her transverse colon is...
Is huge.

Toxic megacolon
with peritoneal signs.

We're gonna need to
get her to the O.R.

before her bowel perfs,
okay?

I was hoping,
if we start medially,

we could remove the tumor
en bloc.

Ah...
It's not working.

I know. Just...

Let's try coming
from the inferior side.

Maybe if you approach it
superiorly...

I am.

Yeah,
it's still not working.

You know,
I can see that, Shepherd.

That's why
we're practicing.

And at this rate,
we will be ready

in, what...
Five years?

Don't take your baby daddy drama
out on our tumor baby.

We can do this.

Consult in the O.R.
I'll be right back.

Wh-What... You're...
You're leaving?

Do me a favor and come back
with a little positivity!

It's quite a crowd.

Quite a surgery.

It sounds really complicated.
I hope it goes well.

Well, if you thought you might
be performing your last surgery,

wouldn't you want to
go out with a bang?

Catherine told you?

This morning.

She's symptomatic.
She's in pain.

This is not
a simple surgery.

I mean, do you think
this is a good idea?

I think
she's Catherine Fox.

I think...

she's gonna
make her mark here.

And I think she has
a stellar team by her side.

They're ready.

♪♪

Full house.

10 blade.

♪♪

No bleed,
no indications for surgery.

Possibly an anoxic
brain injury,

so I'll monitor her closely
in post-op.

Thank you,
Shepherd.

Basin.

Spleen is out.

Bleeding in the left-upper
quadrant is controlled,

but it must be coming
from somewhere.

- How many units have we gone through?
- Eleven.

I'm gonna clamp
the internal iliac,

try to slow the bleeding.
Mmhmm.

Parker,
just so you're clear,

we would have gone through
fewer units

had we stabilized her
in the E.R.

Yes, Dr. Gray.

- Retraction here, Nico.
- Got it.

A pelvic binder
tamponades the bleeding...

It's a very simple
standard of care.

- Yes, ma'am.
- More retraction.

How did you even
become a doctor

with this sort of "everything'll
work itself out" attitude?

I became a doctor
the way everyone does, Grey.

I worked my ass off,
I went to med school...

He became a doctor
because he got cancer...

Jo, that's not
your story to tell.

Sorry. But he's...
He's not a lightweight,

and he's not an idiot.
Thank you.

Got it.

What? Where?

Check this out, Parker.

You want to make sure
you pack below the pelvic brim.

That's where
you're gonna run into

a lot of the
nasty vascular variants

like the crown of death.

I had a hunch
when I saw the X-ray,

and I typically do use
a pelvic binder,

but in this case,
it could've caused

the internally rotated side
to be crushed inward,

causing
even further damage.

And you couldn't have
just said that in the E.R.?

I guess I could've, but
I didn't realize part of my job

was convincing you
I belonged here.

I thought
I just had the flu

and the antibiotics
would knock it out.

No, no.
The antibiotics wiped out

the good bacteria
in your intestine,

which caused
severe inflammation

that made you pass out.

But we caught it
just in time.

Just in time?

Like, before it killed me?

Oh, God. I-I...
I-I can't die.

Those boys
can't lose another parent.

Eli just got to the point

where he's not
crying at night.

They... They need me.

They need...

Okay, the bowel
seems to have ruptured.

Let's, uh, get her
intubated and prepped.

She's moving too much.

Okay, let's push
100 of propofol with 100 of sux.

- Already on it.
- Good.

What?
I-I... Oops.

Oh, my God.

Oh, God, did you...

I'm so sorry.

Okay, everybody, stop!
Listen to me.

The propofol and sux had just
been accidentally injected

into my IV, which means
I have about 30 seconds

until I will be paralyzed.

So let's page the chief.

DeLuca,
start the surgery, stat.

Uh, I'm gonna need somebody
to put a tube in me,

because once I am down,
I'm gonna lose my airway,

and if I can't breathe,
then I will die.

I'd also appreciate it
if somebody could help me

by breaking my fa...

She's in a coma?

It's a
medically induced coma.

The sedation
will keep her calm

But...

she will wake up?

Natasha lost
a lot of blood,

and her body underwent
severe stress.

We don't always know

how a patient's
gonna recover from that.

So she won't wake up.

We can't know for sure.

We will continue to monitor her

I don't know what to do.

You can hold her hand.
You can speak to her.

She's not
a traditionalist, and...

Yes, it is.

Okay, you guys were
talking really loud,

so I'm not gonna apologize
for eavesdropping

despite your angry faces.

Jo...
No, th-there is a way
