They were climbing. Give me your hand.

- He fell, and I caught the rope.
- I took over,

I got no leverage here.

[SIREN STOPS, AMBULANCE DOORS CLOSE]

RICHARD: And the person who I trained,

the person I mentored, fired me.

Without a word of apology or regret.

And my own wife said nothing
to defend me,

not one word.

[SIGHS]

Look, I-I-I know I have my part in this,

but I do not see me

forgiving anyone but myself anytime soon.

[LAUGHTER, GROUP MURMURS]

I did it myself.

I take full responsibility
for my actions.

Andrew DeLuca had absolutely
nothing to do with it.

Okay.

Okay. [SIGHS] What now?

We go to the police?

No. Now you go home and I do what I do.

I go home?

Will they let Andrew out?

After the charges against him
are dismissed.

And then what?

Well, we'll schedule a hearing.

You'll be deeply repentant.

You'll get a few weeks
of community service

at a free clinic,

and you'll pay a fine.

And what about my medical license?

That's up to the board
if they want to pursue action,

but I'd say it's highly unlikely.

- So I just go home.
- Yes.

Is there a problem? No.

I just... I did
this long, dramatic goodbye

with my kids.

LINK: Well, this is good, man.

This is a good thing.

She's getting the help she needs.

Yeah, well, it's just...

I have a history with some people

who had that kind of help,
and it doesn't help.

Jo's not those people,

and she isn't just a fighter.
She's Rocky. She's Ali.

She'll get better.

Let's talk about something else.

[SIGHS]

I think Amelia dumped me.

You think?

Little hard to tell.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

Hi.

Somebody wants to meet his baby sister.

Leo, Leo. Look, look.

This is your little sister, Allison,

and, Allison, this is your
big brother, Leo.

- [LEO FUSSES]
- Leo, being a big brother

is such an important job.

Oh, uh, Hunt, Shepherd,
I have incoming trauma.

- Well, I just had a baby.
- He just had a baby.

- Yeah.
- I'm aware.

She's very cute. Congratulations.

I still need you to come.
Altman, you're excused.

What... Are you serious?

Due to criminal activity,
[SCOFFS] Meredith Grey,

Alex Karev, and Richard Webber
no longer work here.

What?

And Andrew DeLuca's in jail.

What do you mean "criminal activity"?

- [PAGER BEEPS]
- Incoming trauma. Now. [STAMMERS]

What do you mean "criminal activi..."

Would you?

Oh. Oh, yeah. Uh, sure.

- Hey. Hi. Okay.
- [LEO CRYING]

Oh. Oh, boy. Okay, okay, yeah.

Okay. Hi. Oh.

- Bye. We gotta go.
- Okay. Yeah. Goodbye.

Okay. Okay. Okay. I know.

[WAILS]

Oh, I...

Hey, help.

Nurse?

TEDDY: Let's see. Look at this.
What's this? Wh...

You... You had the baby!

[WHINES]

I-I tried to reach you.
I-I didn't hear from you.

And then I had the...
the Spidey Sense, and...

[GASPS] Oh.

Look at her.

Wow.

What a beauty.

And that is little Leo Hunt, am I right?

You must be so tired. You need a hand?

Come here, little Leo Hunt.

Come here.

[BABY VOICE] Wait, so, tell me... What...

So, tell me... did she get
back together with your daddy?

Is that what she did?

Yes, she did, didn't she?

Did he ride in on a white horse

and make all the right promises?

I think he did. Yes, I do.
That's what I think.

Oh, Tom, please don't...
don't... don't blame Owen.

This is... This is me.
This is... It's my fault.

I'm just... You know, you are...

[VOICE BREAKING] You are
such a wonderful man.

[NORMAL VOICE] Oh... Oh, I know I am.

I'm funny and I'm smart
and I'm kind when I want to be,

generous with my money
and with my tongue in bed.

So, you will regret this decision,

and when you do... [CHUCKLES]

I'll still be here

because, uh, I'm in love with you,

and I don't think this thing
with Hunt's gonna last.

And in the meantime, we are friends.

- Okay?
- Ma.

Yeah, do you want me to take
little Leo back to daycare?

- Yes, please.
- Yeah? [CHUCKLES]

He's crazy about me.

[BABY VOICE] Come on, little Leo.

Let's go back to daycare, you and me.

[ALLISON COOS]

[SIRENS WAILING]

You fired them?

[SCOFFS] What do you suggest
I should have done?

Anything but fire them.

[BRAKES HISS]

Mari Prishna, 34, GCS 15,

open right humerus fracture
with extremity paralysis.

Okay. Page Lincoln and Kim.

[SIREN CHIRPS]

♪♪

What do we got?

Jai Prishna, 35, GCS 11,
with a left open femur fracture

and right lower leg deformity,

secondary to a fall over a
cliff, thready pulse.

- Systolic's in the hundreds.
- Okay.

Uh...

Uh, you two hurt, or...?

- No.
- No.

- We're fine.
- We're fine.

[SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE]

And we're good to go.

He wanted to cut off my leg.
I didn't want to,

I suggested that it was
the safest course of action.

But then you were wrong.

But then I was a miracle worker.

After he begged you and cried.

You love me because I'm a sensitive guy.

[LAUGHTER]

Alright, can we let our interns
do their job now, please?

Qadri?

Mari Prishna, 34, seven days post-op

after she was a warrior goddess

and saved her husband's life.

Dr. Avery was the warrior.

He saved Jai.

I mean, if he hadn't come along...

No, Mari, you caught the rope,

and you held it for hours
on a broken, shredded arm.

You saved his life.

We did a debridement of her wound

and then put in a right humeral plate.

So, today will be
her brachial plexus surgery

for definitive nerve repair.

Uh, I'm checking in my wife...
Josephine Karev.

GUARD: You need to drive around.

You say goodbye there,
she goes in on foot.

[GATE CREAKS]

[ENGINE TURNS OFF]

I hate that I did this to you.

Did what?

Became another name

on your list of crazy women.

Listen, for the record, you are way saner

than any woman I've ever dropped off

at a treatment center.

[CHUCKLES]

Look, it's 30 days.

You go in, you talk about
your feelings or whatever,

and I get to come visit you on Saturdays.

You don't have to.

Alex, we're not even legally married.

We never filed a license.

You have an out,

and I guess I'm saying
that I love you enough

to understand if you want to take it.

AMELIA: Look at the posterior cord.

I have no idea

how she hung onto her husband
for that many hours.

I'm thinking I would have let go

at about the 20-minute mark,
if not sooner.

Sounds about right.

Okay, so, clearly,
we have had a misunderstanding.

Can we talk after surgery?

I'm happy to talk now.

- I'm not listening.
- And I don't care.

I like you... a lot.

I would like to keep seeing you.

What I don't want to do
is bury myself in you.

- You know what I mean?
- No, he doesn't.

He doesn't? You don't?

Of course he doesn't. You're not
speaking in a language

- any dude could possibly understand.
- They're not wrong.

[SIGHS]

I would like to go on dates with you

and get to know you better
before I'm all in,

because I have a history
of going all in too fast,

and I would like to change that.

Better?

- Better.

- Just come home with me.
- No.

No, I am not going back home

to the house that you bought for Amelia.

That's not the way
you and I are supposed to

start our lives together.

I know it. I know it in my soul.

What, and this hotel room...

- Yeah.

This is Lolly. Hi, honey.

So, she's got a fever

and a headache and a sore throat,

and this morning, we were at the park,

and we were playing.

I'm not really... sure what happened.

She seemed fine.

Oh, my God.

Well... I guess maybe she has the flu.

- I...
- I'd say maybe.

[BARKING CONTINUES]

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

Hey.

Shepherd was able to do a complete repair

of Mari's nerves.

That's good. That's good.

How's Jai?

He's improving, actually.

How's that ankle?

It's a little better.

Good.

How about us? How are we?

Hmm?

It's been a week, Maggie.

We agreed...

To let our tempers settle

before we talked further about...

You abandoning me
on a dark and foggy road?

That walk that I took...

- That walk you took?
- ...ending up saving two lives.

Is that what we're calling it
now? That walk you took?

You left me in a car

on an unfamiliar road i-in the woods,

surrounded by...

fog and bears and wolves.

There were no bears. Why...

None that we could see,
but I could hear them!

This is why we should wait to talk.

Yeah, got it.

Dr. Grey's bleeding heart
got the better of her,

but she is an award-winning surgeon.

She saves lives every day, and she...

Did you bring an actual violin,
counselor?

- Judge...
- Dr. Grey,

you're a partial owner of
Grey-Sloan Memorial.

So why commit insurance fraud?

Why not just pay for the surgery yourself

or do it for free?

Repentant.

Your Honor, the little girl has cancer.

She needs hundreds of thousands
of dollars' worth of care

over a period of years,

and I didn't think that her
very proud, hardworking father

would accept charity from me.

And I didn't think he should have to.

The system should've supported them,

and the system is broken.

Do you regret your choices?

♪♪

To the extent that I can,

knowing there's a very sick
little girl out there,

who's beginning to feel better.

She has three kids.

Don't throw her in jail.

MARI: Help! Somebody help my husband!

Help! Help!

Help, help! Somebody help me! Help!
We were just talking, then

- he started acting strange...
- Call in a code.

...and he stopped talking,
and I can't wake him up. Jai!

- I got a pulse.
- Jai, please wake up.

- NURSE: Rapid response.
- Wake up. Jai.

- Crash cart and intubation tray!

Wake up. Please wake up. Jai.

- NURSE: Pushing saline.

Please wake up! Please wake up, Jai.

[ALARM BEEPING]

You put Tom Koracick in charge of me.

I put him in charge

of all Catherine Fox Foundation
hospitals.

He's Chief of Chiefs.

You said you would have my back.

I did have your back.

I sat here silently
while you fired my husband

and two of your most effective
department heads.

Because they had broken the law!

When I was 15, I stole a lipstick

just to see if I could get away with it.

Do you think that means I
shouldn't get to practice medicine?

What? That's a false
equivalence, and you know it!

My husband is working for an app!

He's making house calls like it's 1965.

He leaves the house before I wake,

he goes to sleep at night
before I get home,

and if our paths happen to cross
in the daytime,

he avoids eye contact.

That's what standing by you cost me...

my marriage.

So Tom Koracick is my punishment.

I am living with cancer.

I don't have the energy I once did.

And all the things
you used to bring to me,

you will now bring to Tom.

- Tom is a world-class surgeon...
- I know what he is.

[DOOR OPENS]

DeLuca?

You want to explain yourself?

Yeah, you fired several doctors,

and other doctors quit in solidarity.

But I've been cleared of all my charges,

and I think you might need my help.

Cocky.

DeLuca.

This... This is cocky.

You want me to leave?

I can leave.

Just get to work.

[BOAT HORN TRUMPETS]

You really a doctor?

I might be.

It's still undecided.

What did you do?

Robbed a bank.

Really?

[CHUCKLES] No.

I keyed my ex-boyfriend's car.

Oh.

Did he deserve it?

Oh, he very much did.

So, I got this mole.

Think you could take a look?

[DOOR OPENS]

Heard about Jai.

Yeah, radiology says
he has watershed infarcts,

which makes no sense in this case.

He's 35, he could do an Ironman,

and he just strokes out.

- Out of nowhere.
- Did you do an echo or a V/Q?

Of course I did, Maggie.

I...

I'm trying to help.

Jai was hanging on the edge of
a cliff with two shattered legs,

and Mari hung onto him.

She hung on so hard

that a tree sliced through the nerves
in her arm and almost cut it off.

But she hung on,

pulled him from the brink,

like the edge of certain death.

And then we show up
and we bring him back here

and we put him through
excruciating surgeries,

and now he's on... life support,

somewhere between alive and dead.

So, I'm wondering if she should have...

back at that cliffside,
if she should have just...

let him go.

Because there's something inside him

that we can't find.

Hell, we can't even name it.

There's something there that's broken

beyond... repair.

In this metaphor,

am I the thing
that is broken beyond repair?

Am I the thing that, um...

should just be thrown over a cliff now?

No.

No. Not you, Maggie.

Us.

So, you're still broken up?

That's sticking?

It's very, very sticking.

I think I deserve better than someone

who regularly abandons me

for, you know, trees.

- AMELIA: Right?
- So, yeah, it's sticking.

You're okay, right? I mean...

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

We're fine. I mean, we're friends.

Our parents are married to one another.

So, yeah. Friends.

Or like siblings.

We're definitely not like siblings.

Mommy, can I wear this to school?

No.

Because Mommy needs that for... work.

MAGGIE: [CHUCKLES]

[CLEARS THROAT]

Aren't you supposed to be in there?

They tried to take a selfie.

They climbed all the way
to the top of a mountain.

They made it up through rain and fog,

and then they tried to take a selfie,

and he stepped back and slipped.

He was a miracle, and now he's...

...not.

And we don't know why.

And that...

[SIGHS]

Just... [STAMMERS]

It hurts my body. It makes me ache.

[SIGHS]

[SIGHS]

Hey. You okay?

- Uh, yeah.
- Baby?

Oh, she's fine, I think,

but, um, I don't know where Teddy is.

Have you seen her?

Uh, she panics and she brings
the baby here sometimes.

Why?

Because she doesn't trust me.

B-Because everything I do,
everything I say, is wrong.

New baby. That's hard.

Yeah. Oh, God.

When we got Leo, it was hard,
but it wasn't this hard.

No, motherhood is hard no matter what,

but giving birth is a beast.

I mean, it's a beast
that changes your whole body

and your whole mind
and your whole heart forever.

Hormones are insane, so just be patient.

Yeah.

[SIGHS] I offered to milk her.

What?

She had a clogged duct
and she was in pain,

and I... her...
the heat pads weren't working.

- I just...
- So you offered to milk her?

Yeah.

- In those exact words?
- Yeah.

Wh...

I was just trying to help!

- [ELEVATOR BUTTON CLICKS]
- What?

And you said you are available
to start immediately?

I am.

And may I ask why?

Why I'm available?

Why you're interested.

Why I'm interested
to be your chief of surgery?

You've worked at Grey-Sloan
Memorial for a very long time.

You are well-regarded and well-respected.

Well... Well, thank you.

But this job is enormous.

Our new investors are looking
to turn around a hospital

that is ranked last in Seattle.

This takes vision and...

Vision and experience, yes.

Some experience, sure.

But, Dr. Webber,

aren't you considering retiring
anytime soon?

[SIGHS]

I am not.

[SIREN WAILING]

Hey.

Hi. Dr. Avery.

Jackson, please.

Victoria. Vic.

Right, right. Vic.

I never thanked you. I should have.

Oh, God, no. No.

No, my patients would have been roadkill

if it wasn't for you.

Well, how are they doing?

She's doing well. Actually, really well.

Uh, he's not as well as I'd... like.

- I got you.
- Oh, thanks.

But, uh, still, thank you.

Oh, just doing my job.

Yeah. So...

Uh, you know what?

I'm going to grab a burger at Joe's.

- Yeah, I like burgers, but, um...
- [ENGINE STARTS]

...maybe some other time?

Deal.

[SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE]

When you tried so hard
to talk to me and I couldn't,

I felt shame, fear, and pain.

And what was that shame about
for you, Jo?

That I lost the ability

to receive the love that he was offering.

Tell him.

That I couldn't receive the love
that you were offering...

and, um, I pushed you away.

I'm sorry,

and I'm afraid that I won't
be able to regain your trust.

Alex?

Did you do your homework?

Oh.

[PAPER RUSTLING]

When you didn't talk to me,
it made me feel...

"I felt."

Nobody makes you feel anything.
Those are your feelings.

When you shut down, I f... I felt fear.

I still do.

Can you talk a little more
about that fear?

Alex...

You've had enough pain and crazy

to last you a lifetime.

You deserve someone who
doesn't break like glass

and need to be swept up

and shipped off to places like this.

Do you think that person exists?

[VOICE BREAKING] I think some

are s-stronger than other... others.

Jo, you've had a depressive episode

caused by intense trauma,

and even though our society tells us

places like this mean we're broken,

I think the truth is
coming to a place like this

makes you stronger than most.

[SNIFFLES]

LINK: There was an episode of hypotension

in the second surgery,
but we got that under control.

Mm.

That is unlikely to cause a stroke.

I know. Try this.

If I eat any more, I'm gonna
have to unbutton my pants.

[EXHALES SHARPLY] Hot.

[SNORTS] Okay, new game.

Name three things
that you have never done,

but you really want to do.

Ooh. Good one.

Um... [CLEARS THROAT] Okay.

Surf a 20-foot wave...

- um, ride a camel through the Sahara...
- Mm.

...and, um... cure Parkinson's.

Now you. Same question.

[INHALES SHARPLY] Okay.

Mm. [SIGHS]

Go to a psychic medium
and talk to my dead father,

get licensed in scuba diving,

and have sex with more than one person.

[SNORTS]

You've never done that?

You have?

I lived in Venice Beach for a year.

So did I.

And you never had a three-way?

They're offered up
like mints in Venice Beach.

Hmm.

I had a medical practice there.

Oh.

Yeah, I... worked in a bike shop.

Fat embolus.

What?

In California, we had a patient.

Muscle Beach body builder,

shattered his femur, just like Jai.

He didn't wake up from surgery.

It looked like it was a stroke.

Turns out it was fat embolism syndrome

from the long bone injury.

There was a telltale rash.

Did you check Jai for a rash?

Wait!

- Just stop! Just wait!

We've talked about this.
We're both way less afraid of dying

- than just being kept alive on...
- He has it.

- Has what?

Link, that's it.
That's the rash, under his arm.

Is this reversible at this stage?

Wait, what... what rash?
What does that mean?

It means maybe we can wake him up.

♪♪

VIC: A fat embolus? That man didn't
have an ounce of fat on his body.

JACKSON: Right. I mean,
it's the fat from the bone marrow

in long bones like the femur.

- Bone breaks, and...
- Oh.

...that fat can travel
into the bloodstream,

which can get lodged in the brain,

and it looks like a stroke.

I never get to know

how the people I rescue do in the end.

We run into fires
or pull people off of cliffs,

and then we hand them off to you,

and then we run into
some other fire. So, it's, um...

it's nice, I guess,
to know how he's doing.

I hope he wakes up.

Yeah, me too.

I...

am just getting out of
a pretty serious relationship.

Uh, me... me too.

Did you love her?

I did, yeah.

Me too.

And, um, he... he died.

- Oh, I'm really sorry to hear that.
- [SIGHS]

Yeah. Me too.

So, probably...

- [CHUCKLES]
- ...not the very best time

for either one of us
to be starting something new.

Yeah, probably not, because we're both

supposed to just feel miserable
for as long as possible.

- So...
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]

Well, if you're gonna put it like that...

- [LAUGHS]
- [CHUCKLES]

Well...

MAN: All the way down to the corner!

Dr. Grey?

Is that you?

Suzie Wilson.

I'm the classroom mom at Zola's school.

Hi, Suzie. Hi.

What are you doing here?

Is this some sort of volunteer thing?

Something like that, yeah.

Oh, I just love that.
Love that you're doing this.

I always wondered why we never
saw you volunteering at school,

but now I get it.

This is really nice to see.

You know, Suzie, when working
moms don't volunteer at school,

it's usually because
we're working in the daytime

and parenting at night,

so we generally don't have time
to participate.

Grey! This is not happy hour!

Get back to work

before I tell the court
you're in contempt!

Nice to see you, Suzie.

Mm.

I'm not working, but I'm at work.

Come on, tell me a little bit
about work, please.

I fired all my favorite people,

and my least favorite person
now has power over me.

And the anger I feel...

The righteous anger is...

Applied for a job last week
with Pacific Northwest General.

Did they call you?

Put you down as one of my references.

I don't know.

You don't know? I don't answer the
phone if I don't recognize the number.

You don't check your messages?

You know, I hate your generation.

I hate any generation other than my own.

Same.

Eh, I'm not gonna get that job.

The woman doing the hiring is a child.

She practically called me grandpa.

Well, can't you get your wife
to do something for you?

No.

Where is your wife?

Does she let you live like this?

Eh, she's out of town.

Is she coming back?

I don't know.

You know, so you got to get it.

What?

The job at Pac-North.
I mean, it's still open.

I just checked this morning.

Wait, the job's at Pac-North?

Of course it's still open.
Nobody wants to work there.

- No, you want to work there.
- Why?

Because you could turn it around.

And if you get the job, you can hire me.

Look, Dr. Webber, I really want
to help you, but...

Oh, look at yourself, Karev!

You're drowning in your own filth!

I'm not asking you to help me.

- I'm asking you to help yourself.
- Alright, stop yelling at me.

This is my house,

and I don't work for you anymore.

Here.

You're worried about your marriage?

Give your wife
a reason to come back home.
