prevously on "grey's anatomy...

i'm george.

we met at the mixer
you had on a black dress

strappy sandalsand a slit up the side.

i've had this thing for
my roommate since, like, day one.

she's pretty great,you know?

who's thatch?

my dad.

thatcher.

she never talks about him.

i'm glad you moved in.



oh, so she moved in with you.

didn't she tell you?

and what i know now is that
when i go into my bedroom,

i'm gonna see that my wife

is cheating on me with mark

who happened to be my best friend.

after careful consideration

and many sleepless nights

(here's what i've decided)

there's no such thing as a grown-up.

we move on. we move out

we move away from our families

and form our own

oh, no



hello?

no. dr. burke.

yes.

yes, i'll let her know.

that was your landlord.

he wants you to know

that there's a minor flood
in your apartment.

your other apartment.

but the basic insecurities

the basic fears

and all those old wounds
just grow up with us

i'm exhausted.

me, too.

and just when we think
that life and circumstance

(have forced us to truly)

once and for all become an adult...

i was going at it all night
in the on call room.

what's your excuse?

your mother says something like that

mom.

i tell you, that man
makes me purr like a kitten.

mom.

when he isn't making me
growl like a tiger.

stop.

and my husband wonders

why i'm not interested
in him anymore.

or worse,something like that

if he had any balls at all,

he would leave on his own.

no. he plays stupid.

he's waiting for me to kick him out.

i come home with a hickey
on my shoulder

a hickey, for god's sake

like i'm some sex-crazed teenager,

which, let's face it,these days, i am,

and what does thatcher do?

pretends he doesn't see it.

we get bigger
we get taller

we get older

but... for the most part

we're still a bunch of kids

running around the playground
trying desperately to fit in

you know, he's acting like

i committed a crime,

like my apartment is full of stolen goods.

he's acting like i kept my apartment

to hide stolen goods

so i could do
illegal transplants for money.

are you sure he's not
just acting like you lied

about moving in?

okay,what's wrong with you?

my mommy's a filthy whore.

you have dirty in your eyes.

you have dirty in your eyes.

i'm not doing dirty with you anymore.

it was a one-time lapse in judgment.

well, it was a 4-time lapse in judgment.

well, it's not gonna happen again.

oh. okay.

i'm serious.

we're friends,and it didn't work

when we tried to be more than that.

so...

as fun as it was,

it's not gonna happen again.

stop looking at me.

i'm not looking at you,

i'm rounding.

i'm rounding, too.

-fine.
-fine.

chuck eaton, 54,

has stage 3b non-small cell
lung cancer

with possible invasion of the pleura

and a history of c.o.p.d.

he's had extensive
chemo-radiotherapy

with minimal regression of the tumor.

he's been admitted
for radical en bloc resection.

i was a smoker.

the, uh, oncologist...

he explained that i have a 25% chance

of surviving the, uh, surgery.

well, unfortunately,that's about right.

if you should elect not to proceed,

we can make you more comfortable.

with all due respect, uh...

there's no way

that you can make a man
dying a slow death comfortable.

i'll roll the dice.

how do i look today?

would you say, you know,
i look nice?

you could usea little more lip gloss,

but, yes,
you're very pretty.

aw, you're mean.

i'm just kidding. you look fine.

seriously, how's my breath?

george.

would you just talk to her?

who?

what?

good morning, dr. bailey.

hello, baby.

are the o.r.'s up and running?

uh, yeah,they're fully functional.

uh, except there's some
smoke damage to the corridors.

how about you?

you fully functional?

i'm fine.

how's your husband?

taking him home tomorrow.

yes, we are. yes. yes...

okay,this is not a tea party.

go. work. save some lives.

now!

do it now.

jake burton, 15, has advanced
craniodiaphyseal dysplasia.

was admitted last night

after complaining of headaches.

and he's not a complainer.

he's been havingsome nausea as well.

really, okay?

may i, please?

jake, can i get you to sit up, please?

sure.

all right, okay.

now i want you to look
right here for me. thank you.

you know, if you pretend
i'm a lion, it helps.

sorry?

if you pretend i'm a lion

instead of a really messed up kid,

you get a talking circus animal,

which is way easier to look at.

dr. yang, what's our
immediate concern?

uh, that the bony tumors

are growing inward

and encroaching on his brain.

"invasive non-small cell
with a history of c.o.p.d."?

guy's pretty much a goner, huh?

sensitivity...i like that in a stranger.

are you new here?

visiting.

confounded by all the rain,

and it's only
my first day in town.

you get used to it.

makes me want
to stay in bed all day.

we just met, and already
you're talking about bed.

not very subtle.

subtle's never been my strong suit.

so...

do you ever go out with co-workers?:

i, um, make it a rule not to.

then i am so glad that i don't work here.

are you hitting on me

in a hospital?

would that be wrong?

meredith.

ow. ah.

what the hell was that?

that was mark.

punching out people
on my surgical floor?

my head of neurosurgery

punching out people
on my surgical floor?

put the ice back on your hand, derek.

my hand is fine.

put the damn ice on
your $2-million-a-year hand.

now... would someone tell me

what the hell happened?

that was mark.

who's mark?

he and derek used to work together

back in new york.

and, uh...

they were...we were all close friends

until...

derek found us in bed together.

you put your weight behind it?

yes, sir.

well, all right, then.

what the hell is he doing here?

i have no idea.

derek and i always did have
the same taste in women.

excuse me?

you're derek's lusty intern, right?

i heard about you
all the way back in new york.

you're famous.

well...

i heard about you
all the way here in seattle,

so i guess we have a lot in common.

we're the dirty mistresses.

i suppose we are.

my $400-an-hour shrink
says that

it's because behind this rugged
and confident exterior

i'm self-destructive and self-loathing

to an almost pathological degree.

hey, we do have a lot in common.

you know, it's funny.

der...

derek walks in on me
naked with his wife

actually in the throes

and he just turns around
and walks away.

but he sees me
so much as talking to you

and i'm on the ground bleeding.

interesting, don't you think?

what do you think you're doing?

you need stitches.

i know. hold the mirror.

why is he suturing his own face?

to turn me on.

because he's mark sloan.

he's like the go-to plastic surgeon
on the east coast.

that's the guy
addison was sleeping with?

well, you can't really
blame her, can you?

no, not really.

yes, you can.

mcsexy wants an x-ray
to check for fractures,

and i think it's a bad idea if i take him.

why? why?

i'm on it. why is it a bad idea?

mcsexy?

no?

mm. mcyummy.

-no
-no.

mcsteamy.

ah, there it is.
yep.

oh, excuse me,

i'm just chokin' back some mcvomit.

ooh.

i saw her first.

the night she met shepherd,

i had her ear.

we talked,

and i can't even remember what i said.

you know when you haven't
had sex for awhile,

you sort of forget how good it is

and don't really need it much?

yeah, that doesn't happen to guys.

it's like a beas...

a beast that was asleep

for a long,long time.

and now the beast is wide awake

and wants to be fed,

and the food that alex gave it was...

it was

good food, george.

something needs to be done
about your taste.

ah! you're just jealous

because you're beast is still asleep.

eh, my beast isn't asleep.

my beast never sleeps.

mr. eaton.

do you need a hand with that?

um, if you could set up the tripod,

that would be very helpful.

are you...

what are you doing?

i'm dying, dear.

one in four...

i, uh, i've never done well
with odds like that.

some...some people are lucky.

i just never have been.

the camera's for posterity,

for saying good-bye.

do you want me to hold
the camera for you?

you're very kind.thank you.

okay, we're recording.

this...this is a message

for suzie zelman

my...my college sweetheart

and...and the love of my life.

suzie...

i loved you with my whole heart...

and i never would've
stopped loving you

if you hadn't been the vile whore

to ever walk the planet earth.

you deserve that...

that drunken imbecile

that you slept with and then married.

and when, at the reunion,

i..i met your ugly children

i knew you had done me a real favor.

i am so deeply happy

that i'll never have to see

your face again.

love, chuck.

would you please, uh,

put in a fresh tape, dear?

what about that

jaw reconstruction you did

using a microvascular

free transfer from the foot?

you interested in plastics?

absolutely.

you might want to consider a transfer

to new york or los angeles.

you're not gonna see
any heat up here.

well, actually...

you ever seen an advanced case

of craniodiaphyseal dysplasia?

lionitis?

restrained driver

in a minor m.v.c.

vitals are stable,but witnesses saw

seizure activity behind the wheel.

i really don't think i need to be here.

you should really let us
determine that, ma'am.

witnesses said she was

screaming, shuddering

and--and clamping her jaw.

do you have a seizure disorder

that you're aware of?

epilepsy?

it's not epilepsy.i don't have any

oh, no. oh, god.

it's happening again.

oh, no.

was that a...

did she just have a...

orgasm.

spontaneous orgasms.

are you sure?

kinda ha to miss.

ms. calva,

i'm dr. montgomery-shepherd.

it's pamela.

since we're gonna be

talking about... you know,

may as well get familiar.

okay, pamela,

can you tell me

how long this has

been happening to you?

for a few months,

i guess.

how often?

about, i don't know,
seven or eight times a day.

every day?

uh, dr. stevens.

i'm sorry.

every day?

yes, every day.

and you haven't seen
a doctor about this before?

it not exactly something
you want to cure, is it?

dr. o'malley

sorry.

mum...is it?

i went to my doctor.

he sent me to a shrink.

and he didn't do any tests?

pammy,you back here?

oh, god, no.

you called my father?

he's your emergency contact person.

pammy, what happened?

you were in an accident?

i caused the accident, d.

you had one of your...

episodes. yeah.

oh, no.

damn it.

she's a junior at u-dub.

she's a math major.

the last three semesters,
she made the honor roll.

high up in the honor roll.

mr. calva, we're gonna...

run some tests

and we're gonna...

we're gonna figure out what's

causing your daughter's...

episodes.
this right, episodes.

okay.

and when you were 14,

you stole laura brendese
right out from under me.

you knew how i felt about her.

don't say you didn't know

because you knew.

and you went for her anyway.

what kind of human being
does that to his little brother?

he was 14. cut him some slack
for god's sakes.

oh, i'm sorry.
i forgot we were recording.

if you wouldn't mind just rewinding

a little bit, please?

i'm a doctor, not a videographer.

and i do need to prep you for surgery.

but you offered to help.

when i thought
you were saying good-bye.

i am saying good-bye.

none of these people not one of them

knows how i really feel.

my whole life,

i've kept it all inside.

i-i don't want to carry this

with me to my grave.

you seem like such a nice man.

wouldn't you just rather
you remember you that way?

no.

please rewind the tape.

okay, jake

it can get a little cramped in there,

so you have to try not to move.

yeah, uh, this is, like,

my 50th m.r.i. experience.

right, sorry.

it's okay.

you have really nice eyes,

you know?

well, i'm just sayin' that

you're mostly all...

all surly and hard core,

but your eyes aren't.

i'm really big on eyes.

they're the only part of my face

where tumors aren't growing.

yeah, you've got nice eyes.

yeah?

mm-hmm.

you..you get that...

that i'm jailbait, right?

meredith.

chief.

chief

can i ask you something

not work-related?

okay.

do you remember my father?

of course.

do you know why he left?

i believe your mother asked him to.

right, but do you know why?

no.

no, i'm sorry. i don't.

well...

have a good day.

thanks. you, too.

dr. yang, book an o.r.please

how--how is that possible?

it's precision work.

it won't be easy, but--

dr. sloan, can i help you
with something?

he says he can fix my face.

he says he can make me
look like normal.

what did he say?

did you hear that?

did he call him a crack whore?

-why would he call him a crack whore?
-oh, shut up.

i'm trying to read lips.

look, shepherd's gesturing.

big gesturing.

what do you got?

shepherd and sloan battling it out.

oh, it's gettin' good.

why, what do you got?

just a woman down in the e.r...

having spontaneous orgasms.

wait, wait, wait. wait.

that is not the point.

the point is the kid wants his
face fixed and i want to do it.

the point is,

you wanna get published!

well, yeah.

and i'm guessing your chief
of surgery does, too.

you know how the press loves

a good before and after shot,

richard.

call me dr. webber.

derek,

out of friendship to you,

i would very much love

to say no to this jackass.

but as chief--

please don't say it.

dr. sloan, if you can get the parents

to sign a consent form...

round two goes to the jackass.

which one? which one?

oh, god. oh, no.

oh, no.

oh, it's happening.

doctors,there something you need?

well, in that case,move on.
no, no

anyone get what mcdreamy
or mcsteamy sees in her?

she's mchot.

mcyeah, she is.

oh, come on.

you're not even
a little bit happy to see me?

go home. whatever it is

you came here to do,

just drop it and leave.

hey, we all made mistakes,

addison, all three of us...
mark...

but somehow...somehow,

i lost my best friend

and the woman i loved.

please... don't say that.

he doesn't know how we felt.

he doesn't know you stayed

with me after he left.

how do you expect
to work out a marriage

if you can't even

be honest with him?

why are you here?

for one reason...

to bring you home.

i miss you, addison.

i'm in love with my husband, mark.

but he's not in love with you.

he's in love with that intern,

and he's not even trying to hide it.

now why would you want
to stick around for that?

i think you're making it up.

i'm not.

-i saw it four times.
-what?

a woman with spontaneous orgasms.

really

you're just jealous 'cause
you didn't see it yourself.

oh, i totally am.

spontaneous orgasms, really?

you look really nice today.

any chance they're contagious?

spontaneous orgasms.

it's that would solve so many problems.

it would. it would.

i think you smell nice, too.

you know, it's like,

you see someone throw up,

it makes you want to throw up too.

kinda like that?

kinda like.

you know what? i'm not hungry.

do you hear me?

i'm not hungry.

neither is the beast.

"the beast"...is that, like,

some sly reference to your penis?

get your mind out of
the gutter, crack whore.

no, it's not alex's penis.

it's...you know

when you haven't had
sex for a long time

and you forget how good it is,

and so you want it less?

yeah, that doesn't happen to me.

me either.

me either.

i grew my hair for her,and...

i know.

i don't even think she's noticed.

you could just try

telling her how you feel.

um, guys?

she's moving,

like, a lot.

pamela,

you have to hold still.

okay.

that's not helping the beast sleep, is it?

no.

no, it's not.

you're drawing the medial to the tumor.

-yeah,
-it's a guideline

for what the bone structure should be.

hear that?

i'm gonna have bone structure.

jake...

so what do you think,am i a dal?

or more of a picasso?

could you stop doing that

for a minute, please?

jake...

jake... i'm sorry.

this surgery,the brain surgery,

is very dangerous.

no, don't say that.

y-you don't get to change your mind.

you know, i know dr. sloan

has made you some big promises,

but the bony tumors

inside your skull are bad.

i don't care.

the bleeding will be hard to control.

i'm not trying to frighten you,

-i just want you to under--
-i do understand.

i understand

that this has nothing to do
with the plastic surgery.

so if i'm gonna be under

the knife anyway, then--

-the plastic surgery could--
-sorry to interrupt--

what you need to understand--

excuse me.

jakes actually right.

no reason to put him through

a second surgery

and a second round of anesthesia.

it's much safer just to
do it all at once.

honey, we just want to focus

on keeping you alive.

mom, i-i almost died

when i was 10 years old.

and then again when i was 12.

and then again last year.

but...but

but i'm still alive.

i'm still alive,

so i say we go for it.

jake...

look, i know that you think

i'm perfect just the way i am--

but that's your job to do that.

but... for once in my life,

i'd like to think

that someone else thought that.

please.

please.

you've given up surgery

to go into clerical work?

i'm fulfilling a patient's dying wish

by sending hate mail

to everyone he's ever met.

yeah,

right now i understand the impulse.

me, too.

why do people cheat?

that's a good question.

why do you think she cheated on you?

were you different then?

were you a bad husband?

i was, uh...

oh, i was just a little...absent.

not that that's an excuse for her.

do you think things

would've been different

if you'd had kids?

do i think

she wouldn't have cheated?

i don't know.

all right, man, jake's ready to roll.

i'm sorry.

did i interrupt something?

no. it's fine.

pamela,

you should really try and relax.

i am trying to relax.

the episodes happen

when i don't relax.

do you really think you can fix this?

i, uh, i hate to be insensitive, but...

would it be the worst thing

ever if we can't?

i mean...

you know, i like sex
as much as the next girl,

like in bed

or even in private.

but when you can't go to the movies

or drive a car

or go to church with your parents...

oh, my god.

you know that dream

where you show up at high school

and you're naked?

yeah.

yeah, well, i would really,

really like to wake up.

it's crossed

the intrathoracic fascia?

i'm afraid so.

i'm gonna have to go into the chest wall.

he made 17 hate tapes.

i'm sorry?

videotapes of himself

telling people how much he hated them

spewing every hurt feeling he ever had.

and he mailed them?

no.

he wanted me to, but i don't

think it's a good idea.

he was scared.

he was in shock.

he wasn't thinking clearly.

that's not for you to decide, dr. grey.

he asked you for something,

and you told him you would do it.

if you don't,

that doesn't make you noble.

it makes you a liar.

did you know she kept her artment?

yeah.i did. sorry.

and now...

dr. shepherd

-is opening the skull-cap.
-is it harder to get

-through the bony tumors?
-that's what he's doin'.

yes, he is.

basin.this idone.

cottonoid.

give me the sponge.

oh, son of a bitch

all right

hang another unit of blood.

oh i got

somebody change that bag of blood, please.

that's too much blood.

put it in the pressure infuser.

no carotid.

we've got v-fib.

start c.p.r. and bag him.

paddles.get the paddles.

he's losing a lot of blood.

someone get f.f.p.

charge to 200.

charging.

clear.

shame he never had his face fixed.

dr. sloan.

yeah.

all right.

i got the parents' approval.

you don't...really need those.

oh, right.

scalpel.

mr. eaton,

can you hear me?

oh, god.

no, no, don't try to sit up.

you're gonna be in pain for some time.

but i'm pleased to report

that we removed the entire tumor.

wait, i'm--i'm alive?

yes, sir.

you are alive.

my--my tapes?

would you like me
to throw them away?

no.

i'd like you to mail them.

i-i have to say my piece.

sometimes a man has to say his piece.

mer... uh, do you want--

uh, i want to take you

out for a drink tonight.

and not--maybe not joe's.

maybe someplace where we can talk.

yeah, there's something i need..i want...

to talk to you about.

it's important.

it's...

i don't want to make videotapes

on my deathbed, george.

she had an affarie

y-yes.

why didn't you stay and fight for us?

i did. i...i tried.

why didn't you try harder?

you just left.

meredith...

is there anything that you need?

a...anything at all?

no.

i don't need anything from you.

hey.

i haven't see you all day.

i didn't want to see you today.

it's not my fault he showed up, derek.

i know.

don't beat yourself up--

i'm gonna take the stairs.

how come you can
forgive her but not me?

i didn't forgive her, and with you

i have no obligation to try.

your marriage is over,addison.

all you have to do is admit it.

then you can come back home with me.

i'm goin' to the bar across the street.

meet me there.

he looks...

peaceful.

he does.

i am preston burke,

a widely-renowned
cardiothoracic surgeon.

i am... a professional.

and more than that,

i am a good and kind person.

i am person that cleans up

behind myself.

i am a person that cooks well.

and you...you are

an unbelievable slob.

a slovenly, angry intern.

i am preston burke.

and you...you are the most competitive

most guarded, most stubborn

most challenging person

i have ever met.

and i love you.

what the hell is the matter with you

that you won't just let me?

i gave up my apartment 20 minutes ago.

well, all right, then.

i've heard that it's possible to grow up.

i've just never met anyone
who's actually done it

dr. stevens,

after the surgery,

will i still be able to...

when i want to, will i
still be able to have...

you know...

episodes?

even better, pamela...

you'll be able to have orgasms.

without parents to defy

we break the rules
we make for ourselves...

we throw tantrums

when things don't go our way...

hey.

she doesn't hear me.

what?

she doesn't even hear me when i talk.

she will if you make her.

you fed the beast, didn't you?

twice.

i'll see you later.

bye.

we whisper secrets
withour friends in the dark...

meredith came to saw me today.

hmm. poor baby.

poor thing.

her father left, you know?

i think she knows about us, ellis.

i think she's figured it out.

she's 5 years old,richard.

we look for comfort

where we can find it...

this seat taken?

i guess not.

double scotch,

single malt.

you look sad.

i just saw my father

for the first time in 20 years.

how'd that go?

it coulda gone better.

what are you still doing here?

i'm hoping addison shows up.

you're still in love with her?

you're still in love with him.

she won't show, you know?

no?

he's not the kind of guy

you leave if you can help it.

what if you're wrong?

what if, just this once,

life comes down on the side

of the dirty mistresses?

and we hope...

against all logic

against all experience.

like children...

we never give up hope.

come in.

i know i'm not
a world-renowned surgeon.

and i know i'm not a lot of things

that you've gone for in the past.

i know.

but...

i would never leave you.

i would never hurt you.

and i will never stop loving you.
