Greys Anatomy- Season 3

Episode 1- Flashbacks & shiva for denny

Addison(operating on a baby boy): Poor little guy. As soon as he's better, he's getting turned over to a mother who's going to juvie and grandparents who are so clueless, they didn't even realize their own kid was pregnant. Imagine the kind of life he's going to have.Alex: You can get over a bad childhood. I mean, you can have the worst crap in the world happen to you. You can get over it. All you gotta do is survive.George: You know? Youre an ass.(Derek chuckles)Youve lived. Youve done things. And you got the hair, and the hot wife, and the beautiful ex-mistress whos pining for you.Derek: Shes pining for me?George: My point is youve lived. If you die who cares? If I die, what? This is it? Callie told me she loved me, I just sat there. I mean, I wasnt ready, but right now Im gonna die and I aint getting a chance to say I love you back.Derek: Do you? Do you love her?George: Maybe. Eventually. I could. One day... soonish.Derek: Soonish? I will love you soonish?(laughs)George: You ever told Meredith? You ever told her that you love her?Derek: No.George: I did, but Im with Callie. Its different, but...Derek: You should tell her. Even if its soonish. You should tell her before its too late.George: You mean before I die of the plague?Derek: Before somebody else comes along Meredith(opening voiceover): In the O.R., time loses all meaning... In the midst of sutures and saving lives, the clock ceases to matter... 15 minutes, 15 hours. Inside the O.R. the best surgeons make time fly. Outside the O.R., however, time takes pleasure in kicking our asses. For even the strongest of us, it seems to play tricks. Slowing down, hovering, until it freezes. Leaving us stuck in a moment, unable to move in one direction or the other. Meredith(closing voiceover): Time flies. Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us wants is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go. Time.

Derek: Okay.(Derek shuts the door)I'm gonna go, you stay. I'll get my clothes in the morning.Addison: No, no, no, no, no, no. We can survive this, Derek. We can survive this. We're-- we're Addison and Derek.Derek: I can't look at you. I look at you and I feel nauseous. It's just... wha---wha?(shakes his head)We're not Derek and Addison anymore.Addison: If you go now. if you go now we are not gonna get through this. If you go now, we don't have a chance. We don't have a chance, if you go now, if you go...(Derek walks out the door)George: Okay, shes been in there all night. We have to do something.(Alex, Cristina, and George all turn and look at Meredith)Meredith: Why are you all looking at me?Cristina: Because this is familiar territory for you.Meredith: There is nothing familiar about this.Unfamiliar. Denny died. The man she loves died.Cristina: Yeah, but youre all dark and twisty inside.Meredith(makes a face): Dark and twisty?Cristina: What, with the Alzheimers thing and the father you don't talk to.Alex: And the tequila thing, and the inappropriate men thing.George: You are dark and twisty inside, Meredith, and now Izzie is dark and twisty inside.Meredith: So all of a sudden Im the president for people with crappy lives?George: Seriously, we have to do something. Someone has to go in there.(none of them move, and they all look towards Meredith again)(During Izzies flashback)Izzie: This is nice, right? They throw a mixer for the new interns.Alex: Yeah, it's just an excuse to get us all happy and drunk before they torture us.(Izzie laughs, Alex smiles)What program you in?Izzie: Surgery.Alex: Seriously?Izzie: Seriously. ... What?Alex: I- I picked you for GYNE or PEDS or something.Izzie: You dont think I can be a surgeon? I can be a surgeon.Alex: Surgery's hardcore.Izzie: I'm hardcore.Alex: You won't last past the first year, babeMeredith(softly): I dont know what to say to you.Izzie: When Dylan died and when the bomb went off did you feel like you were moving in slow motion?Meredith: He was there and then he wasnt... like I blinked and he was gone.Izzie: I feel like I'm moving in slow motion and everything around me is moving so fast... and I just want to go back to when things were normal, when I wasn't poor Izzie laying on the bathroom floor in her prom dress with her--(whispers)her dead fiance. But I am. So I can't. Am. I'm just stuck... And there's all this pressure cause everyones hovering around waiting for me to do something or say something or flip out or yell or cry some more. And I'm happy to play my part. I'm happy to say the lines and do whatever it is I'm supposed to be doing if it would make everyone feel more comfortable. But I don't... I don't know how to do this. I... I don't know how to be this person. I don't know who this person is.Meredith(whispers, a tear running down her cheek): Izzie...Izzie: How did this happen? Why did we end up here? Why am I alone? Wheres Denny?Meredith: You're not alone, Izz.(Meredith grabs her hand) Derek(while searching lockers for food): Trail mix and warm soda.(he turns to George who is also rifling through someones locker)Who puts warm soda in their locker?George: As usual Cristina is too lazy to stock her locker with food.Derek(closes that locker, opens a different one): Oh look now here's the mother-load. I got granola, cookies, muffins. Who eats this much?!George: That's Izzie's locker. She ate a lot. Said it kept her energy up.Derek: Eats.George: What?Derek: Eats, you said ate, eats - present tense, she didn't die.George: Feels a little like she did. She's never coming back here. I don't think she's ever gonna be the same.Derek: Yeah well there are moments OMalley. Moments in a split second and your life changes forever. Before you know it, youre somewhere else. Callie: Don't take it personally. It's the doctor thing.Finn: What?Callie: 4 years of high school. 4 years of college. 4 years of med school, at the time we graduate we're on our late twenties and we haven't done anything except go to school and think about science. Time stops we're socially retarded. I mean look at me, I'm in love with a guy who won't say he loves me back and here I am in his kitchen cooking just hoping he comes home and notices me. I mean I'm a total freak. I'm that girl in the back of the class who eats her hair. Meredith is 17 years old, we're all 17 years old. This is high school with scalpels, Finn. Adele: Im sick of waiting. Waiting for you to finish med school, waiting for you to come home at night, waiting for you to leave that--woman. Im done waiting! It's time for you to make a choice, me or this hospital. It's time for you to retire Richard.2- Izzi makes muffins & Addison is drunk

Dena(to Alex): I'm gonna go into the bathroom, and if I find myself alone in there after two minutes, I'll just touch up my makeup and come back out. But should you have any interest in fulfilling the wish of a potentially dying woman, you know where I'll be.(Alex watches her leave, takes a swig of his beer, and quickly follows her out)[edit] Benjamin: Do you have a boyfriend?(Cristina remains silent ignoring him and checking his heart beat)Do you have a boyfriend? Do you have a boyfriend?Ruthie: He's gonna keep asking you 'til you answer.Cristina: Yes, I have a boyfriend.Benjamin: If I had a boyfriend I would definitely not be as angry as you. Why are you so angry? Is it because youre frigid? Or hes frigid? Or-Cristina: Nobody's frigid. My boyfriends mother called me selfish, okay?Benjamin: Are you selfish? Because you do seem kinda self-obsessed to me.Ruthie: Ben!Cristina: Im a surgeon. In order to be a surgeon a certain amount of self-obsession is necessary. My boyfriend gets that. His mother doesnt. Its her problem.Benjamin: I used to have a boyfriend and when I got the tumor he understood. He tried to understand. He loved me but his mother didnt.(Cristina looks up at this)My offending everyone, offended her. And he said he didnt care what his mother thought. But in the end, he did care. Cause now its 2 years later and Im having brain surgery and only my fat sister Ruth is with me.Cristina: Benjamin! That was kinda rude.Benjamin: Sorry.

Meredith(opening voiceover): At any given moment the brain has 14 billion neurons firing at a speed of 450 miles per hour. We don't have control over most of them: when we get a chill, goose bumps, when we get excited, adrenaline. The body naturally follows its impulses, which I think is part of what makes it so hard for us to control ours. Of course, sometimes we have impulses we would rather not control, that we later wish we hadRichard: You have coffee stain on your shirt.Addison: You had a bed on your couch.Richard: I hope youre not planning on seeing patients in your sweatsuit.Addison: Actually, um... I need the day off.Richard: A day off, for what?Addison: For drinking. I am feeling the need to do some drinking. Actually, Im feeling the need to do some crying, but my tear ducts seem to be too proud, so I am going to do some drinking instead.Richard: What? No laboring moms today?Addison: No... because I think God knows that I need to do some drinking today.Richard: Do you wanna talk about it Addy, or do you wanna be glib a little bit longer?Addison: Why are you living in your office?Richard: Marriage is... hard.Addison: Well, thank goodness. Mine seems to be just about overAddison: Dr. Stevens.Izzie: Please don't call me doctor.Addison: Oookay, please don't call me Mrs. Shepherd." Haaaa! That's funny.Izzie: She's drunk.Joe: This is true.Addison: Did you know about the slutty sex your slutty friend had with myyyy super slutty husband?Izzie: You should have a muffin. They're really good and they'll help you.Addison: I may be beyond help.Izzie: Yeah, me too.(walks out)Don't let her drive Joe.Addison(eats a muffin): Mmm.(with her mouth ful)Good.Addison(drunk): I've decided that I'm gonna getreallyfat. Just as a stop gap, just until I figure out another plan. Eat alllll of these muffins and I'm gonna get really gloriouslyfat. It's over. Over. Ooover. I'm talking about the last 1/3 of my life, Miranda. How can that be just over? How can that just end? Over a skanky pair of panties and bad tux. I'm desirable, Amanda.Bailey: Miranda.Addison: Right. Joe, I'm desirable right?Joe: I have a boyfriend.Addison: Be that as it may, I don't need me to tell you how wildly attractive I am.Wildlyattractive.Joe: You are. Your wildly attractive cab is here.Addison: It is?Joe: You told me to call a cab at ten. It's ten.(leaves)Addison: It is? I guess that's for the best huh?Bailey: I would say so.Bailey(Izzie has filled the kitchen full of muffins and is making more): I went soft. I... had a baby, and I swore that it wouldn't change me, it's just-- it does change you. I got tired, I got busy, and I stopped teaching. I stopped teaching when you needed a teacher the most.Izzie: You couldn't have stopped me.Bailey: Yes, I could've. You couldn't have stopped you, but I could have. And in the past I would have. I went soft, and I'm partly to blame for what happened so... I want you to come back. You'll talk to the chief. We'll work it out, because you're talented and capable-- We all make mistakes--(sees that Izzie is still holding onto the spatula)--that's enough muffins.(Izzie lets go of the spatula)[edit]Bailey: OMalley, Yang, prep your patients for surgery. Karev pit, Grey charts. All four of you do not make me regret setting you loose in this hospital. OMalley, what do I mean by that?George: You mean check with you before we cut any wires or steal any hearts.Bailey(angry): Are you trying to be clever?George: No, ma'am.Bailey: Better not be!(walks off with Meredith)George: Holy crap!Cristina: Nazi is definitely back.Alex: Louder than ever!Cristina: Where's he going?Meredith: To get laid.Cristina: There's something wrong in the world when Bambi's getting laid and I can't get 5 minutes alone with Burke.(Meredith is holding a coin)What are you doing?Meredith: Days over. Flipping a coin. Call it.Cristina: Guess brain surgeon should be heads?Meredith: Right.(Meredith flips the coin and it lands on the table)Choice made.Cristina: Oh thats it? Youre going to base your choice on flipping a coin?Meredith: Taking a cue from Benjamin. Impulsive, honest, its my new motto.Cristina: Benjamin died.(Meredith looks at her shocked and saddened)He wasnt impulsive Meredith. He wasnt honest. He was sick and brain damaged. And now hes dead.(Meredith puts the coin back into her pocketCristina: Benjamin OLeary. 32. In for the removal of a brain tumor thats suppressing on his frontal temporal lobe. Cleary its affecting his impulse control.Benjamin: It makes me say everything I think, which apparently is annoying. This doctor looks annoyed anyway. Although it's hard to tell 'cause she always has a pinched uptight look on her face.(Derek, Bailey, George, Alex, and Meredith all smirk and try not to laugh)Am I annoying you?Cristina: It's fine.Ruthie: You can't say it's fine. He doesn't preserve sarcasm or irony. If he's annoying you, you have to tell him.Benjamin: Maybe I'm not annoying her Ruthie.Cristina: No, you are.Bailey: Doctor Yang.Cristina: He asked!Derek: Okay, Benjamin Doctor Yang, as pinched and annoyed as she might be, is going to prep you for surgery today. Have you any questions for me?Benjamin(about Meredith): Is that blonde your girlfriend? 'Cause the way keep looking at her, you might as well just mount her right here, right now.(Derek, George, Alex, Cristina, and Meredith all try not to laugh)I'm sorry was I rude?George: So um--- um, Doctor BaileyBailey: Surgeons dont say um OMalley. If you wannabea surgeon OMalley learn to speak like one.Derek: Hey ah, Chief, you havent heard from Addison have you? Shes not answering any phones.Richard: Actually she needed the day off. Something about finding another womans panties in the pocket of your tux.Derek: Ah, that's not how I wanted her to find out.Richard: You dont leave another womens panties in you tux unless you want her to find them. Look, I know a thing or two about affairs. I even know a thing or two about affairs with women named Grey.Derek: Its not an affair. I was gonna tell her, Addison, I was gonna tell her today.Richard: Give her some space, give her some time.Derek: No. Thats not it. No. I gotta tell her today. When somethings over, its just gotta be over. Meredith shes--shes not an affair.3- superpower girl & Izzie stands in front of the hospital all day

Meredith(closing voiceover): The fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good, and twice as much pleasure is better. That pain is bad, and no pain is better. But the reality is different. The reality is that pain is there to tell us something, and there's only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomach ache. And maybe that's okay. Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreamsAlex: Dude, thats not a bet. Thats milk money.Cristina: Oh look, she's laughing. Because he made a joke, which probably wasn't funny. Ooh, you funny vet!(Meredith hears her and gives her a look)Bailey: She didnt commit a crime. Shes an intern. My intern. If you wanna blame someone, blame me. Look, but that girl is coming in here today andyou aregoing to talk to her and youre going to remember all the other surgeons that youve known whove had a lapse in judgment that lead to someone dying or---or someones arm falling off. Most importantly youre going to remember all the mistakes that youve made when you were young and stupid, and youre going to be filled with patience and compassion.Burke: Are you cooking for me?Cristina: No, I am not. You can take a leave of absence if you want to. But youre not gonna sit on your ass all day. Youre gonna work hard. Youre gonna get every bit of your strength and dexterity back.Cristina: A recoverys hell on a spouse. Its gonna be harder for you then for him.Leanna: My moms staying with us for a week, maybe she should stay longer.Cristina: No, its brutal being a caretaker. Fetching the paper, and then cleaning the carpet. And oh, oh he wants ice in a cup, not a mug. It never stops.(coming to a realization)Its the caretakers that are the silent victims. You know, and what do you ever hear about them? Nothing, I never hear anything about them. And its always, the patient this, the patient that. The silent victimsIzzie: I hate the bride thing. I hate the pictures in the magazines with the girl with the veil and the flowers that shes sniffing. Like it never occurred to stick her nose in there until there was a camera pointed at her. I hate the idea of bridesmaids. And the colors. And does the bustle make my ass look bigger or smaller. I hate the whole thing. And I never wanted to be that girl, that girl is stupid. And shallow. Why the hell is that girl still running through my head?George: IzzieIzzie: Im going to do it, George. Im going to walk through those doors. I just need to make sure that when Im standing in front of the chief of surgery, I am not thinking about my wedding dress. And thats gonna take a minuteBailey(operating on Megan): Look at this. Everybody wants a life without pain. What does it get you? She needs to be on a poster somewhere, to remind people pains there for a reasonMeredith(opening supply closet door): Megan?(sees Addison)Oh. Hi.Addison: Werent youjuston 3?Meredith: I was. We lost a patient, a little girl and I was just-Addison: Look, why dont you pick a floor and stay on it, and Ill pick a floor and stay on that. Because I really need a moment or two without you. Your face shows up in my head, your panties show up in my husbands pocket. Really, youre everywhere, and I need a moment or two without you.Meredith: I get that.Addison(sarcastically): ThanksMeredith: Enough! This isnotdating. I want moonlight, and flowers, and candy and people trying to feel me up. Nobody is trying to feel me up. Nobody is even looking at me. I'm an intern, do the two of you have any idea how much effort it takes to do all this? I am waxed and plucked and I have a clean top on. And the two of you are looking at each other---Derek: Meredith---Meredith: No, my fantasy is not two men looking at each other.Finn: We didn't---Meredith: No. No talking until one of you figures out how to put on a date. I want heat! I want romance! Damn it, I want to feel like a freaking lady!(she goes inside and shuts the door, but quickly turns around, opens up the door and grabs the ice cream from Finn then slams the door again)4- Denys dad & sloans back to stay

Burke: But it's not fine! You wanted to believe it was fine. You wanted it to be fine. You wanted...I wanted... damn it! My hands are the only things that I have that are of any value to me. To you.Cristina: Not to me.Burke: Yes, to you! You want Preston Burke. My hands...these are who I am. If I can't do this...if I can't finish this surgery, than...Cristina: What if I held the vessel? What if I hold the vessel? Come on. Burke, if I hold the vessel...Burke: I can attach the graft.Cristina: So if I put my hand...(she holds the vessel and Burke sews it up seamlessly)No one has to knowAddison: Dr. Bailey, can I get...(she sees Mark in other room)... Oh my God!Derek: Oh my God...Meredith: Oh... my ... God.George: Is that...Cristina: Dr. McSteamy.(Meredith throws up and George sees Mr. Sullivan in other room trying to light a cigarette)George: No, Mr. Sullivan, don't light that!(Mr. Sullivan lights a cigarette causing an explosion)Meredith: You're a good friend.Cristina: So high right now.Meredith: Actually, you're my best friend in the whole entire world.Cristina: I just feel sorry for you.Meredith: Why? Because I could die today.Cristina: This is why I hate being around stoned people.Meredith: And if I did die today, I'd only be remembered as the slutty intern who dated two doctors.Cristina: No, one doctor and one vet.Meredith: Derek, Finn, Derek, Finn. I'd die as the girl who couldn't make a choice, right?Cristina: Probably. But none of that matters, because you'll be deadRichard(to Mark): What kind of idiot lights a cigarette in the hospital?Derek(while looking at Mark): Apparently people do idiotic things all the time.(they all share a look, Richard walks away, Derek follows. Mark walks over to Addison)Addison: I thought you were going back to New York.Mark: I thought it was time for a change.Addison: You can't do this. You can't be here.(Cristina, Meredith, George all are watching, pointing and giggling)Mark: Sure, I can. It wasn't easy. I sublet the apartment, sold the practice.(cuts to Derek and Richard talking about Mark on the balcony)Derek: The man is a liar and a cheat.Richard: The man is one of the best plastic surgeons in this country, his department will generate twice the revenue neurosurgery does.Derek: Money? Is that why he's here?(cuts to Mark and Addison at the bottom of the stairs)Mark: Why do you think I'm here?Addison: This... This is why I left you.Mark: I thought you left me for Derek.(cuts to Derek and Richard talking on the balcony)Derek: I left New York because of him.Richard: He was your best friend, for years.Derek: Right up until the point where he had sex with my wife.Richard: We all make mistakes.(Meredith throws up again)Cristina: Holy crap, are you pregnant?!(everyone hears her)Addison: Oh, this is just perfect.(to Derek as he's running down the stairs towards Meredith)An adulterous love child?Derek: Goes along with an adulterous sociopath.(Addison walks away, Derek reaches Meredith)Meredith.Bailey: Uh-uh. You've done enough already.(Meredith is sitting in her hospital room on morphine and sees Addison walking by)Meredith: Addison! Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd!Addison: You bellowed, Dr. Grey?Meredith: Hi.Addison: You certainly are, aren't you?(looks at Meredith's chart)But you're not pregnant.Meredith: No. Are you okay?Addison: Fine. How are you?Meredith: I'm trying to choose between two men.Addison: Ok-ay well, good luck with that.(Addison starts to leave the room)Meredith: How did you know Derek was the one?(Addison turns around and looks at Meredith)Addison: Excuse me?Meredith: I know you hate me and you don't owe me anything. Nothing. Noooo-thing. What was I saying?Addison: Derek.Meredith: Right, I want him to be the one, but I would know if he was the one, right? You knew, right?Addison: You don't...I didn't. I didn't know. JustDerek's the kinda guy-- I just knew wouldn't hurt me. Not on purpose anyway. Not the way I hurt him.Meredith: He hurt me, when he chose you.Addison: I should have let him go.(sighs)I should have stepped aside, been a better person. I shoulda a lot of things.Meredith: Me too, a lot of things.Addison: I don't hate you.Meredith: How come we never talked like this before?Addison: The only reason we are talking like this now is because I know that you won't remember a single word of this once the drugs wear off(Sitting at Joes bar)Callie: McSteamy, right?Mark: You must be a friend of Merediths.Callie: Not really. Dr. Torres. Callie.(extends her hand to him, he shakes it)Mark: Im Mark Sloan.Callie: Bad day?Mark: You can say that. You?Callie:Oh, yeah.Mark: So, whatve you heard about me exactly?Callie: Mostly things that involve the words "dirty" and "bad".Mark: Right. I guess there really is no starting over, is there?(Callie shakes her head, and Mark moves into the bar stool next to her)Can I buy you a drink, Callie?(Callie downs the drink she has, and gets up leaves, but turns back)Callie: Only if you have it delivered to my hotel room, because Im off to bed.(pause)You comin?Finn: So what time do they let us visitors start visiting in the morning?Meredith: You shouldn't do that.Finn: I don't mind.Meredith: No, really, Finn, you shouldn't do that.Finn: So it's Derek?Meredith: I'm sorry.Finn: Can I ask why?Meredith: You are a great guy. You're a wonderful guy. And you may even be the better guy, but--Finn: He's the one.Meredith: And I wish he wasn't.Finn: He's gonna hurt you again. And when he does I won't be here. Take care of yourself, MeredithAlex: Why not just cut me loose and let me in on a surgery where I might actually learn something?Addison:: Mark Sloan's burn case.Alex: I'm going into plastics anyway.Addison: Do you think that Mark Sloan has anything to teach you, he's just like you. He's only looking out for himself.Alex: So what? Your patient's looking out for herself, you're looking out for yourself.Addison: No, I'm not, actually.Alex: Well, maybe you should be.Addison: Go. Go find Sloan. Do whatever you want, just get out of my face right, Karev. Go!

Meredith(opening voiceover): At some point during surgical residency, most interns get a sense of who they are as doctors and the kinds of surgeons they want to become. If you ask them, they'll tell you they want to be general surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons. Distinctions which do more than describe their area of expertise, they define who they are, because outside the operating room, not only do most surgeons have no idea who they are, they're also afraid to find out.Bailey: You know as well as I do it's not about what you look like, or your job, or how successful you are. It's about having people in your life that you love and who love you... that's all that matters.

Addison: Clearly, I'm not myself today.Bailey: Never would have figured Mark Sloan to be your type.Addison: He's not...(Bailey smirks)...he's not...What is he doing here? He'snotsupposed to be here. I can't have him here, I can't... he's supposed to be in New York. I can't function with him here. I'm a professional here, people respect me here, but when he's here I'm just...I'm...Bailey: The woman who gets the hots for man candy and cheats on her husband?Addison: That is rude. And unkind. And completely true. Oh my God, what am I gonna do?Bailey: For starters, you can keep your knees closed in his presence.Addison: Miranda!Bailey: You asked. And also, you can remember, that no man, not Derek, not Mark, defines who you are.

Meredith(on morphine. To George): When I'm on the table, keep me draped. Too many people have seen me naked already. I'd like to keep whatever dignity I have left.(sees Mark)It's McSteamy. McSteamy! Yoo-hoo!Mark: McSteamy? That's what your calling me now?Meredith: Yeah, but I don't think you are supposed to know.Mark: How's my favorite dirty mistress?Meredith: Haven't you heard? Now I'm an adulterous whoreDenny: Dad, mom, it's me. I'm calling from Seattle Grace Hospital where the beautiful, talented, and incredibly stubborn Doctor Isobel Stevens has just given me a brand new heart and promised to marry me. I know we've had our differences, and I'm sorry we've been out of touch. Believe it or not, I was trying to make everything better. I know you're angry, but I hope you'll forgive me. Turns out sometimes you have to do the wrong thing. Sometimes you have to make a big mistake to figure out how to make things right. Mistakes are painful, but they're the only way to find out who you really are. I know who I am, now. I know what I want. I've got the love of my life, a new heart, and I want you guys to get on the next plane out here and meet my girl. Everything's gonna be different now. I promise. From here on out, nothing's ever gonna be the same. I love you, bye.5- 8.7 Million & M&MIzzie: I think Im gonna buy something for Bailey and for Burke. What do you think Burke would want?Cristina: Nothing you could get with money.George: He likes jazz.Izzie: Im not buying him a CD, George, Im a multi-millionaire. I need to buy him something... big.Meredith: A house. A house in the Bahamas.Alex: I'd buy the Bahamas. Or at least a Bahama. An island. You know, for 8 million dollars, you could buy an island.Cristina: Oh, when would you have time to go to your Bahama? Youre an intern.Alex: Id quit.Cristina: Youre not quitting, youre a surgeon, you operate. Thats what you do.(realizes what she said)Sorry.Chief: Okay, people, lets begin. Patient 34986 died last month from complications following a heart transplant. Dr. Burke will present.George: GuysAlex: Wasn't patient 34986...Meredith: Denny.Cristina: Eight million dollars could get us on a plane to somewhere far, far away.Addison: They were having sex. Now theyre just fighting. Good to have you back, Stevens.Izzie: I'm not back. Im fine, just not back. Hey, you're Addison Forbes Montgomery Shepherd right? That's a lot of names, a lot of rich sounding names. You're rich, right? That's rude. That's a rude question. It's just that I'm rich now too.George: You're not rich until you deposit that check.Izzie: Do you ever feel guilty?Addison: I'm sorry?Izzie: Being rich. 'Cause I have all this money now and I don't really feel like I did anything to deserve it. And I can't really talk to my friends about it because...(whispers)they're all so poor.George: Standing right here, Izzie.Addison: Deposit the check, Stevens. Just start there okay? And um, the guilt will wear itself out.Izzie: I have 8 million dollars.Richard: So I've heard.Izzie: I can do anything I want.Richard: Just about.Izzie: And all I wanna do is a running whip stitch,Richard: My first year as an intern I had a stable cardiac patient who blew out his lung while I was transporting to CT and I called in a code, but by the time they got there he was dead. If I had put a chest tube in right away--Izzie: You made a mistake.Richard: But I stayed and I worked and I learned. I never made that mistake again. If I had quit, all I would have had was that life that I lost instead I get to save lives. Everyday I get to save livesBurke(sarcastic): You're fine. I'm fine. Everything's fine.Izzie: So ...Burke: I got shot. I got shot because I was coming back to the hospital to check on Denny. Because you told me to.(shakes his head)I'm not fine. Denny asked you to marry him and now he is dead. You're not fine. Don't come in here and- ... just we're not fine.Izzie: I'm sorry. We were friends. You were my boss but I think we were friends too. And- and I never meant ... for anyone to get hurt. And I know there is nothing I can do to take it back.Burke: No.Izzie: Preston, please.Burke(angry): You quit! You quit being a surgeon! You have two good hands! And you aren't using them. Feel guilty about that.6- Yangs burkes right handGeorge(they are looking on from the top of the stairs): Burke's back and suddenly Cristina's running his board? Who does she think she is? Bailey?Meredith: She's helping him.Alex: Bull. She's taking advantage. She gets out of rounds. She scrubs in on every surgery Burke does. She's ordering around 3rd year residents.Meredith: You guys are overreacting.Cristina(to the nurse): I'm so sorry. It's completely illegible. I'm gonna like--- why don't you just write it properly? Can you please give me a minute?George: She's writing on the OR board.Alex: Maybe I should sleep with Burke.Richard: There's still a good deal of fallout after the Duquette M&M. There's been talk. And I don't need to tell you that there are doctors in this hospital that have concerns about your judgment.Bailey: About my judgment?Richard: Stevens was your mistake.Bailey: Do you, sir, have concerns about my judgment?Richard: Do you?(pause)You're not gonna put those concerns to rest by not taking responsibility for Dr. Stevens. She's your intern.Meredith: Derek sister is in town.(Cristina doesn't answer)Cristina, are you mad at me or something because I've been trying to talk to you all week and---Cristina(cuts in curtly): Everything is not about you, Meredith.Meredith: Okay. What's the matter? Because Alex and George are saying--Cristina: I-- I don't care.Meredith: What is your problem?Cristina: I just-- I have bigger things in my life right now.Meredith: It's okay to be nervous about being back here at work, about failing. But you haven't even been back a full day yet and already, you're pushing to bend the rules.Izzie: Meredith, this is so not about me. This is about our patient, I am worried about our patient and get off your high freakin' horse.Meredith: This is my patient try to remember thatGeorge: You and me: We're like ham and eggs. I was the chicken, I just want you to know that, I know that I was the chicken. You put yourself out there, you were committed and I was just puttin' the eggs on the plate. Not the ham because you were the pig.(this catches Callies attentions and she glares at him)I was just involved, but now I'm committed.Callie: Did you just call me a pig?George: No...as a metaphor.Callie: Calling me a pig?George: No, the point is that you're not the pig anymore. Now I am the pig. I'm the pig. I am the pig.(Callie glares at him and walks away)I...am the pig. [edit]

George: Okay, I'll be Cristina for you, if you'll be Izzie for me.Meredith: Deal.(George stops the elevator)Derek had a woman in his trailer last night. She was ugly, very ugly, except she was tall and beautiful. And he was naked.George: Oh. McDreamy was doing the McNasty with a McHottie? That McBastard.(pauses)Er, how was that?Meredith: That was good.George: Cristina enough?(Meredith nods)Really?Meredith: Yeah.George: Yeah?Meredith: Yeah.George: Excellent.Meredith: Channeling Izzie. Go.George: Okay, Callie... she won't forgive me. Er, she won't talk to me. She dumped me. Which is uh I don't care about, you know, at all...Meredith: Good because you deserve better. You do. You are George. I mean seriously. Seriously. Seriously. Was that Izzie optimistic?George(stunned): Yes, it's very Izzie.(sighs)Meredith: Oh,(laughs)youre one of Dereks sisters.(laughs again)Nancy: Um, yeah. Well I knew you didnt think I was the wife since you already ran her off.(Meredith looks stunned and gives a fake smile)Derek: Nancy is visiting from Connecticut , shes on her way home now, straight back home.Meredith(forced): Well, it was nice to meet you.Nancy: Okay.(Izzie and Meredith force smiles and walk away)Izzie: McDreamys sister is McBitchy.(laughs)7- Boys camping

zzie(walks up): I have to hide! Sydney. She's my peer counsellor.(Meredith and Cristina look puzzled)'Heal with Love' Sydney.Meredith and Cristina: Oh.(they make disgusted faces)EewwwCristina: Prestons do not go into the woods. A guy named Preston is gonna get his ass kicked by a squirrel.Eric: Man, I thought my brother and I had problems. But you two are morons.Cristina: Okay, well, swallowing Monopoly pieces wasn't exactly a genius move. You could've really hurt yourself.Eric: Well, I didn't did I? Now my mom's gonna make my brother let me play Monopoly all I want.Cristina: And that makes you smart?Eric: You're fishing through my poop. How smart does that make you?Meredith: So, what happens with Donna now?Mark: She goes back to being an unhappy man who's stuck with a penis. There are millions of us out there.Meredith: You're unhappy with you penis?Mark: I could be a lot less unhappy.Cristina: Dr Bailey, isn't this more of a nurse's job?Bailey: Are you too good to help that boy?Cristina(scoffs): Yes... No. Definitely notRichard: It's a good looking tent, Joe... um, you and Walter got room for one more?Joe: I thought you would be sleeping with one of the doctors.Richard: Preston's already got O'Malley for a roommate, and... um... just between you and me, those others tents are pretty puny.Joe: Well, Walter and I sort of wanted to share this one, just the two of us...(pause)... but I guess if you really want to.Alex: Chief, I don't think you really...Richard: They've offered, Karev.George: Chief, they want to be... alone.Richard: Oooh! So you are, um... That's wonderful! Man love! It's beautiful, it's beautiful. My cousin is gay, so um... I'm hip.Brokeback Mountain, all of that.Burke: Who's ready to go fishing?Richard: Uh, me!Mark: People don't come to me to fix what's on the outside. They come to me to fix what's on the inside. So if that means giving someone a straighter nose, or bigger breasts, or if that helps a person get by. I don't run. I don't hide. I don't take space.Cristina: You're going camping?Burke: Uh, with Shepherd, yes.Cristina: With the sleeping on the ground and everyone peeing behind the same bush?Burke: Fresh air.Cristina: You have back to back passages, I booked the OR's.Burke: I cancelled the OR's.Cristina: Why?Burke: Because I'm going camping with Shepherd.Cristina: But, why?8- Georges dads bad

Mrs. Hanson: That's my fault, according to my husband, because I'm a working mom. He's a working dad, but apparently, that's not the issue. I love my job. I love Mia more. She's my baby. She's... I love my job, and I love my daughter. I'm not good with the mom stuff, but I'm good at my job.Addison(holding up her wedding rings): What do I do with these? Hock 'em, keep 'em...Callie: My mom said divorce wedding rings are bad juju.Addison: Your mom does juju?Callie: She does.Addison: So... well, what would your mom do?Callie: Burn 'em. Bury 'em.Addison: Do you want 'em?Callie(laughing): I want some rings, just not bad juju rings. Then again, my mom's kinda insane.Bailey: Hey, don't talk smack about your mom.Addison: Miranda.Bailey: Yesterday, I left for work early, and Tuck's favorite food was strained peas. Nasty green gunk, but he loved 'em, ate 'em for breakfast. I got home after a 15 hour shift and he doesn't like strained peas anymore, he only wants carrots.Addison: Life moves so fast. Everybody moves on.Bailey: Yup.(Callie gets up)Addison: Where are you going?Callie: I'm not ready to move onBailey(on the phone with her husband): I know what time it is. I don't care if he's sleeping, just wake him up. He can sleep later-- Wake him up! Okay. Now put the phone to his ear.(talking to baby Tucker)Hey! Hey, Tuck! It's Mommy!(starts singing to him)Them that God's shall get, them that's not shall lose, So the Bible says, and it still is news, Mama made him, Papa made him,(cut to Addison, crying on a Ferry Boat with her wedding rings)but God bless the child that's got his own,(Addison tosses them in the water, and starts crying)That's got his own. Oh the strong get more, while the weak ones fade.(cut to Cristina and Burke laying in bed)Cristina: George knows.(Preston looks alarmed)Bailey: And the pockets don't ever make the grade,(cut to George tossing and turning in bed)Mama may have, Papa he may have,(cut to Derek and Meredith in the bathtub, facing each other at opposite ends of the tub) ButGod bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own.Meredith: I may not be cut out for bright and shiny.Derek: I'm not either. We can be dull and lifeless together.Meredith: I'm glad you're in my bathtub.(cuts back to Bailey, singing)Bailey: But don't take to much, Mama may have, Papa may have, but God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own.Bailey: Well if we can control the bleeders, her cardizers are go. This poor baby, It's not gonna be an easy recovery.Meredith: Well, with parents like that she didn't have it easy to begin with.Bailey: People do the best they can, Dr. Grey.Meredith: They don't know their kid's blood type. They don't know her favorite song. People want high power careers, I get that. But they should think twice before having kids.(Bailey shoots her an offended glare)Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that--Bailey: What, that I should be home with my baby, instead of here with this little girl and a surgical intern who can't cauterize the bleeders?Meredith: Dr. Bailey, I--Bailey: If I were you, Dr. Grey. I would keep my eye on the surgical area, and my mouth shut.

Meredith: Why bother even having a kid if you're only going to see it on weekends and holidays? You might as well just get a cat.George(to Cristina): Do you know why I picked you to be my dads intern? Because you are a robot. Youre a frickin robot in a white coat who never makes a mistake and most of the time I appreciate that. Most of the time I really feel like I have something to learn from you but right nowright now I need you to try, just for a minute. I need you to try to be a human beingCristina(after being assigned to Georges dads case): Your dad better get something interesting wrong with him real soon.George: Youre a sick, sick, horrible personIzzie: Callie slept with Sloan?George: I don't get you people.Meredith: Us, with the boobs? We make a lot of bad decisionsCristina(looks at him, walks towards the doors of the room and then stops): George is the best.Mr. O'Malley: What?Cristina: He's the best intern. He's a good doctor and he's a good person and whatever happened I just thought you should know that you raised a good person.Mr. O'Malley: Thank you, Dr. Yang Meredith: Today is the day, people. Today is the day when dark-and-twisty-Meredith disappears forever and bright-and-shiny-Meredith takes her place. You're probably not gonna want to be friends with me anymore because the sheer intensity of my happiness is going to make your teeth hurt. But that's okay because life is good. Life is good.

Meredith(opening voiceover): Many people don't know that the human eye has a blind spot in it's field of vision. There's a part of the world we are literally blind to. The problem is, sometimes our blind spots shield us from things that really shouldn't be ignored. Sometimes our blind spots keep our lives bright and shiny

9- Yang tells Webber about Burkes hand

George(to Cristina who is walking by): Cristina! Tell Izzie why Dr. Hahn is doing my dad's surgery instead of Dr. Burke.(Cristina is silent)Go on.Cristina: Look, Dr. Hahn is in an incredible surgeon your father is in great hands. And nothing else matters.George: You're wrong. There's a lotta people with fathers in this hospital and it does matter to them who their doctor is.(Cristina walks away)Derek: No, no that is not how this works. How could you know what you know, or suspect it and not even tell me?Meredith: You cleared him for surgery Derek. How did you not know? You can't be angry with me. She's my best friend, and right or wrong she...Derek: What?Meredith: She was there when you weren't.Meredith: What do you think Burke cant operate with out you?(Cristina is silent)Oh, my, God, Cristina.Cristina: Shut up.Meredith: He cant operate without you.Cristina: If you ever gave a crap about me in anyway you will shut your mouth and get back into that ORMeredith: What do you think Burke cant operate with out you?(Cristina is silent)Oh, my, God, Cristina.Cristina: Shut up.Meredith: He cant operate without you.Cristina: If you ever gave a crap about me in anyway you will shut your mouth and get back into that ORMrs. OMalley: ---because were sticking with Dr. Burke.George(to Izzie): What did you say to them?Mr. OMalley: We asked her.George: I asked you to stay out of this!Izzie: I just told them what I thought--George: Get out!Mr. OMalley: George, you dont talk like that to anyone.George: Dad, did Dr. Stevens tell you that shes on probation because the last time she was allowed to interact with patients someone died?(long pause)Izzie(to his parents): It was really nice to see both of you. [Meredith: Hey Callie, I was gonna come and find you. What did you want to talk to me about?Callie(rolling up her sleeves): Panties.Izzie: AhhCallie, whatcha up to?Callie: Im gonna kick Merediths ass right now.(she throws Meredith against the lockers)Meredith: Get off me!(pushes Callie off of her)Callie: I kept your secrets, I was discreet! I was a really good friend to you and I didnt have to be. And then go and do this?!(throws her against the lockers again)Meredith: Do what?!Izzie: Hey Callie, use your words! Use your words, Callie!Callie: Panties, Meredith! Im talkin about the McFrickin code of silence pair of panties I pulled off the bulletin board. Not to mention the adulterous McSex I witnessed, you remember that?Izzie(gets between Meredith and Callie): Hey, hey, hey! Im sorry, Im sorry, but shes very little and youre hurting her!Izzie: Hey. So you and Meredith were having on of your "we're best friends, we're so cool" secret time things. Sorry, I'm cranky. Candy stripin' makes me so cranky.10- conjined twins- Yangs punishment

Alex(to Cristina, sarcastically): You're here? You haven't been kicked out of the program yet.Meredith: Alex.Cristina: No, not yet. I'm still here.Alex: How did you do it? I mean, did you have some kinda signal in surgery so that the nurses wouldn't know? Or did you---Meredith: Alex.Alex: What? I'm just wondering how to get ahead around here. Me? I get coffee for Sloan and Yang gets surgeries none of us would get.George: Got a head count of how many patients you two lied to the past month?Meredith: George.Izzie: Leave her alone. Her patients live so she gets to scrub in.Meredith: Izzie.Cristina: Meredith, please can you just stop defending me?(leaves)Ellis: He's withher. He's with that woman.Meredith: I don't think he is. Not anymore.Ellis: He is. I mean, why would he do that? Helovesme! I mean, why would he go back to her? I gave up everything for him!Meredith: Mom. Mom, look at me-- this happened a very long time ago, this is not happening now.Ellis: It's because I have a daughter, isn't it? He always said he didn't want kids. I should've never had a kid.Erica: You remind me of myself when I was an intern.Cristina: I do?Erica: Focused, intense, cold, and I don't mean that as a bad thing, cold is good. The dating, the friends and the family-- if you ask me, it's all overratedllis: I couldn't stay with him, I-I don't care that, that he's Meredith father, I just, just couldn't take it and then Richard... he(starts crying), he... What do I...(Meredith tries to hug her, but she struggles)... No!... Huh... Meredith.Meredith: Mummy.(Ellis calms down and hugs Meredith)Bailey: But I was responsible for Izzie Stevens. I was responsible and I'm responsible for Cristina Yang. I.I am the common thread here. I. Lost them, Cristina, and Izzie.Richard: Are not the same. Miranda, you raise them. You raise them like... like children. And some of them make mistakes. And some of them disappoint you. Some of them... do you know what kind of strength it must have taken Yang to come to me? To report on an attending? On her boyfriend? You could see how much she's grown. You raise them. Like children. And some of them turn out exactly like you, Dr. Bailey.Meredith(closing voiceover): At the end of the day when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all pretend to keep our distance is usually a load of bull, so we pick and choose who we want to remain close to and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stay close by no matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping and sometimes close can be too close, but sometimes that invasion of personal space can be exactly what you needMeredith: I can't take this anymore!Izzie: What?Meredith: Let her off the hook. Let Cristina off the freaking hook.Cristina: Meredith!Meredith: Izzie, you cut the LVAD wire, she stuck by you and did Denny's EKO.(to Alex)You cheated on Izzie with syph nurse and she helped you study for your boards. And George, when everybody was calling you 007-George(angrily): She was calling me 007.(leaves)Meredith: Just let her off the hook.Alex: It's okay.Izzie: Sorry.(Alex and Izzie leave)Cristina: Why can't you mind your own business? What is your problem?Meredith: You're my sister. You're my family. You're all I've got.Cristina(laying her head on Meredith's shoulder): I'm so tired.Meredith: I know. Me, too

11- Georges dad dies

Addison(to Alex during surgery): This is Meredith Grey's niece. If I lost her, people might think I did it on purposeHeather: Mom, I know you still think death is the worst thing that can happen to a person. Death is not the worst thingIzzie: Yeah, I have a really good feeling. I didn't even bake anything for you.George(happily): Thank youGeorge: I just dropped 8.7 million dollars on the floor.Izzie: And?George: I shouldn't be able to drop 8.7 million dollars on the floor.Meredith: How am I related to that man?Cristina: What do you mean?Meredith: Look at him. He's a mess.(Thatcher spills some of his coffee on the floor)Izzie(apprehensively): Yeah.Meredith: I mean he's a disaster. He's a stammering, mumbling, clumsy disaster with whom I have absolutely nothing in common.(Izzie and Cristina smile and look at each other)Not one thing.Izzie(laughing): I hate to break this to you...Meredith: What?Cristina: Well, you know, you do your own share of stammering yourself.Izzie: Yeah, that nervous talking thing you do? It's actually a lot like him.Cristina: Mmhmm. Mmhmm.Meredith: No, it's not.Cristina: Plus, that messy thing.Izzie: Oh, totally.Meredith(to Cristina): You're the messy one.Cristina: No, my apartment's messy, my locker's messy, butIam not messy. Sometimes, you know, you have like food and stuff in your hair.Izzie: Yeah, food. Band-aids on your face. I can kinda see the indentation from the nose strip you were wearing last night.Meredith(to Cristina): You are in a relationship with no words.(to Izzie)And you are a millionaire in twenty dollar shoes. Whatever.George(notices the check isn't on the fridge anymore): Er, Izzie, t-the t-the check!(gets on the floor and looks for it)It's not er-, it's not- D-did you drop it? It's not here! Izzie, it's not here.Izzie: I deposited it. Okay?George: You didn't deposit it in the garbage disposal or something like that, did you?Izzie: It's at the bank, okay George? So just shut up about it already.George: I-it's at the bank? It's earning interest?Izzie: Did I just not say shut up about it already?George: Izzie. It's real now. Money could travel. It could buy things. It could buy many, many things. That's a- It's a lot of money, Izzie!Izzie: Shut up about it, George!George: I'm just saying. I'm just saying life is short. You know it's like cancer happens and surgery happens and you know, you got(pause)rosebuds!(hits her with a dish towel)You got 8.7 million rosebuds, Izzie!(hits her again)Now go spend some rosebuds, that's what I'm saying.(loud sizzling noise)Izzie(angry): You made me burn my french toast.George(hits her yet again): You can buy new french toast!(Izzie slams scpaula on the counter and rolls her eys and walks away)13- Amish girls & free clinic14- Ellis comes back & Callie O Mallie

Richard: Your mother stopped for five years, and you became somethin'.Meredith: According to her, I didn't. According to her, I'm a disappointment.Richard: In a perfect world, she'd be able to tell you that she was proud of 'ya. But it's not a perfect world and your mother's not a perfect woman. Ellis: You're good. Sharp under pressure. You'll make an extrodinary surgeon.Cristina(long pause): Dr. Grey, I have to ask you. Will it get in my way? Can I have both? Can I be a great surgeon and have a life? Because there's this man who just asked me to marry him and I know you tried to have both but, you split up with Meredith's dad. I know this is none of my business, but --Ellis: It is none of your business.(pause)And I didn't try hard enough.Cristina: Thank you. Ellis: You're happy? You're happy now? The Meredith I knew was a force of nature. Passionate, focused, a fighter. What happened to you? You've gone soft! Stammering about a boyfriend and say that you're waiting to be inspired. You're waiting for inspiration? Are you kidding me?! I have a disease for which there is no cure, I think that would be inspiration enough! Listen to me, Meredith. Anyone can fall in love and be blindly happy! But not everyone can pick up a scalpel and save a life. I raised you to be an extraordinary human being, so imagine my disappointment when I wake up after 5 years and discover that you are no more than ordinary! What happened to you?! Meredith: I am not sure refusing treatment is what you want to do.Ellis: Apparently what I want doesn't matter it isn't even legally binding so it's really about what you want Meredith. You're in charge.Meredith: Do you think I like making these decisions for you. Do you think its fun getting calls from the nursing home asking whether I was planing on giving the nurse who changes you every morning a Christmas tip, but I do it, because you have managed to alienate everybody else in your life, and I am the only one. So I have to step up and do it. You wanna know why I am so unfocused, so ordinary, you wanna know what happened to me, you, you happened to me.Ellis: Then let me refuse the heart surgery.Meredith: No!Ellis: Why not?Meredith: Because killing my mother is not going to be another thing that happens to me.Richard: I heard you're having surgery tomorrow.Ellis: Do you...(pause)Do I know who Meredith is? Do I at least recognize Meredith?Richard: You know she is someone important... Someone who loved you.Ellis: You'll look out for her... Because she's got so much more to learn and I won't be able to teach her.Richard: I'll look out for her.Ellis: I wish I could go back... I'd do everything so differently, I'd fight harder for you, I think if I'd fight harder for you maybe...(Richard walks over and sits next to Ellis)Richard: We would've have had a wonderful life together Ellis.Ellis: You think so?Richard: I do, we would have done our fellowship year, and then you would have fought me for chief and probably won(laughs)and, I wouldn't have minded, because we'd have kids and all.Ellis: We have kids?Richard: Meredith would have needed a brother and sister(pause)kids need family.Ellis: We would have been a family.Richard: Probably bought that big house on Parker, the one with the barn... Yeah that's a good place for a family.Ellis(crying): And I would have been happy, just like Meredith says she's happy and that would have... changed everything... Maybe(sobs)I would be fine and we could grow all together and life would be so perfectly ordinary.Richard: Yeah.(Ellis is crying. They hold hands)Ellis: My life is so unfinished, it's unfinished, and I'm not finishedRichard: No, no, Ellis, don't think that just close your eyes and think of the family... of the house.Ellis: And you there every night to come home to.Richard: And me there... I'm there.15- Ferry Explodes16- Merediths limbo- Ellis dies17- Collin Marlow- Merediths stepmom

This a real my ex-is-about-to-ruin-my-impending-marriage-crisis.Meredith: Oh.George(walks in): Hey! Hey, where's Izzie?Meredith: Kitchen.(to Susan)Sorry, it's not always like this.Cristina: Yeah, it kinda is.Izzie: Colin Marlow. So was it good? Was he good? Did he make you a better lover?Cristina: Do you remember all the other times Ive spoken to you about my sex life?Izzie: No.Cristina: Exactly.Alex: Did I miss anything about her doing the old guy?Izzie: No, she's not talkin'.Alex: Oh, she'll talk.Meredith: So I was supposed to be back in the game today but instead I'm planning dinner for my father in my dead mother's house. I don't cook. How am I supposed to cook for them?Izzie: I will make your stupid dinner.(turns to Cristina)So were there any little blue pills involved or is he untouched by the miracle of time?Alex: Dude, that's just wrong, don't answer that.Cristina(to Meredith): 'Cause I am your friend, I will show up 45 minutes into the dinner with a fake crisis... so if it's that unbearable you can abort.Meredith: Thank you.Izzie: C'mon he's not a young man. He wasn't getting a little help? Popping the pill? Dad's best friend? C'mon you're going to give me nothing after everything we've been through? Nothing?Cristina: It's a miracle drug. And someday(pointing at Alex)it's going to save your life.Meredith: This is my hiding spot. My father's out there. Go somewhere else.Cristina: I need this closet, Meredith.Meredith: Colin Marlow.Cristina: He was my professor, we were close.Meredith: He had his hand on your ass, I sure hope you were close.(from the outside of the closet)Susan Grey: Did you see somebody go in there?Dr. Marlow: I did. I think someone's hiding from me.Susan: I think someone's hiding from me too.(back inside the closet)Meredith(smiling): You were that girl, huh? The one that slept with the professor. We had one in my class. She only got to the radiologist though. But no one got near the cardio guy.Cristina: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I scored big. You know, hide in the bathroom.Meredith: My akwardness with my father is well established. You and the cardio God on the other hand haveloadsto catch up on.Cristina: I don't wanna talk to the cardio God.Dr. Marlow: You know, we can hear you in there, right? Loud and clear.Callie: Oh, so the fact that your best friend violently disses are marriage every chance she gets -- publically, repeatedly, why do you think she does that, George? Have you ever thought about that?!George: She's having a problem with this. I understand that!Callie: She has feelings for you!George(taken aback): What?Callie(upset): She wants you. And that's what this is about, that's why she hates me.George: No.(keeps shaking his head)Callie: George, George. Do not laugh at me. Do not laugh at me!George(choked up): I'm not. I'm not. It's just that-- c'mon. She's Izzie. She's-- She's blonde. She's stacked. She's a supermodel. And I'm - I mean, I'm George.Callie: So what does that make me?George: No, c'mon. You're gorgeous and you're curvy and I never thought that you'd go for me.Callie: Just shut up.(starts to cry)This is my hotel room. That I pay for with my huge piles of money.(throws his jacket at him)Get the hell out of it!19-after George & Izzies fuck

Izzie: Talk to me about black outs. Are they real? Do you really not remember anything afterwards?Meredith: Iz, I'm fine. I'm not drinking. I'm not drowning my sorrows. I'm fine. Everybody needs to stop trying to protect me.Izzie: Um, this isn't really about you. I'm asking back when you had a best friend named 'tequila.' Did you actually ever black out?Meredith: Once. Or twice.Alex: But the stuff you don't remember is usually the stuff that you don't wanna remember.Izzie: Right. Great. Thanks. Addison: Is that a doll house?Izzie: Yeah, the lights work and everything. The perfect little home.Addison: Oh, did you have a doll house growing up?Izzie: I had sex last night, with the wrong person. But the thing is, it didn't feel wrong at the time, it felt like something was falling into place. So, what do I do?Addison: What am I? The go-to person for adultery?Izzie: No, I- I just don't know what to do.Addison: You stop. That's what you do.Izzie: Are you sure? I mean, how do you know that it didn't feel so right because it's God's plan?Addison: God wants you to be an adulter?Izzie: God got a virgin pregnant by magic, God isn't playing by the rules.Izzie: Can I work in the clinic today?Alex: You don't want the F.O.P case?Cristina: Clinic? Why, what's going on in the clinic?Izzie: Nothing. I just feel clinicy.Cristina: That's not a word. I'll take the clinic.Izzie: Cristina!Meredith: Wow, you and George were really going at it last night.Izzie(chokes on the water that she's drinking): What?Cristina: Well, all the laughing and the drinking... the music -- okay, you know what? Nobody, meaning me wants to hear George's rendition of 'SexyBack' at 3 in the morning.Izzie(laughs, relieved): Ohh, yeah, you-- you should've just said something, or, or like banged on the wall, you know?Cristina: It's like living in a youth hostel.Meredith: Well, the important thing is that she and George made up.(looks at Izzie)You did, right?Alex: I need to use your bathroom.Meredith: Why?Alex: Because O'Malley's puking in mine.Cristina: Okay, youth hostel.Meredith: George is still here?Izzie(nervously): Yes, yes. But only because he was too drunk to drive home, you know, like,totallyimpaired. Like no heavy machinery drunk.Alex: What's her problem?Cristina: Still drunk.Izzie: Messing up...it's what makes a person. It's how we learn. Where we find joy. And the things you don't plan for...are the things you never see coming.George: Ugh. I am never drinking again. I can't believe that I have to be presentable for Callie's dad at lunch. Ugh.Izzie(sighs): Hours, hours of our lives. Many hours there are all I can think about and you...seriously don't remember?! How can you not remember those many, many hours?George: Look Izzie, eh...Whatever I did, whatever I said... I was drunk, I'm sure I didn't mean it.Izzie: George, I promise you, you meant it... You meant it a lot, you meant it more than once.

20- Izzies daughter

Meredith(closing voiceover): Some people believe that without history, our lives amount to nothing. At some point we all have to choose: do we fall back on what we know, or do we step forward to something new? It's hard not to be haunted by our past. Our history is what shapes us... what guides us. Our history resurfaces time after time after time. So we have to remember sometimes the most important history is the history we're making today.George: She does. We're just having one of our stupid fights. Do you know how wrong it is if she's really in trouble and I'm not there because we're being idiots?Meredith(sees Cristina's nail polished fingers): You've got stuff on your hands.Cristina: I'm trying to scare away cardio-god.Meredith: With pretty, pretty fingers?Cristina: He takes my rook, I take his bishop. Hey, pouty head.(Alex looks at her and Cristina makes a sad face)Aw, are you so sad because no face girl's family is taking her home?Susan: Its freezing out here and Ive been working myself up to saying this, well for a while now. So I need you to let me in now, please.(she comes inside)Its my fault your father didnt fight harder for you. I knew about you. I could have pushed him to be a part of your life. I should have pushed him. You were a child.Wewere the adults. But we were just married and it was new andthats what I cared about. And I know the groceries and everything are a little much, but thats just what I do. I mean, quit lookin at me like Im crazy. Cause thats not fair. Im just tryin to find a way to be there for you, the only way that I know how. And if you cant accept that, then fine. Just stop being so rude. And I... okay, Im overstepping again, arent I?Meredith: As mothers go, Ive only ever known overbearing, never over-protective. This is all new. Its okay.Susan: It is?Meredith: Yes.Burke: I hear Dr. Marlow is going home.Cristina: About time.Burke: The big announcement to handholding... well played. Now you can get back to being Cristina.(Burke kisses her on the cheek and leaves. Cristina looks at herself in the mirror)23- intern test- susans funeral

Cristina: What the hell am I supposed to do about the stupid vows?Meredith: You still havent written anything?Cristina: Oh, stupid crapIzzie: No, it isnt!Cristina: Well, what am I supposed to say? I swear to cherish you every moment of every day of my life? I mean that, thats not real. Thats not how it works, right?Callie: It does at first, thenMeredith: It passes.Izzie: No, it doesnt! You guys are just used to it, thats all. You already have it, you have that thing everybody else wants. You can take it for granted. But let me tell you if you didnt, if you couldnt be with the person that you love, I guarantee that hearing him promise to love you and honor you, and cherish you no matter what itd be pretty much all you could think about.(awkward silence between the four)Cristina: Wait, could you say that again? But, just slowly?Meredith: You're talking about Denny, right?Izzie: Yeah.Alex: Well, at least test day is almost over.Cristina: Speak for yourself. I'm getting married tomorrow.George: Its like we are on a train thats going 200 miles an hour its so nice to get off. Just stand on the platform, just for a minute.Meredith: Looks like Im off the train.George: Our parents died, when a parent dies it doesnt make any sense. So you make a lot of really terrible decisions, and youre gonna end up having to live with it for a long time.Meredith: You should go. You are still on the train.(George just looks at her and shakes his head)Its okay. You have to go. Go.24- Cristinas wedding?

Meredith: Do you remember your vows?Cristina: Yeah, I wrote them on my...(looks at her hand)Oh, my God, I scrubbed in and the vows were on my hand... I scrubbed off my vows.Meredith: Oh, okay...um...Cristina(panicing): Okay, hello, I scrubbed off my vows! I-- I can't do this. I don't-- I don't have anything on my hand! There are no words in my head, I have no vows, no vows!Meredith: Its okay, its going to be okay...Cristina: You now what? Stop saying that! Will you say something else?Meredith: Like what?Cristina: Say something that is gonna help me!Meredith: Okay! Okay! I...Cristina: Meredith! Please, you know what? Say something... Say.. I dont know, I don't know what, say... say... Okay. Say what I would say to you if you were me...Meredith: Okay!

Cristina: Good.Meredith: Got it!Cristina: Good, go.Meredith: Stop whining! This is your wedding day, you will go down that aisle and you will get married! If I have to kick your ass every step of the way to get you there... youwillwalk down the aisle, youwillget married. Do you hear me, Cristina? We need this! We need you to get your happy ending...Cristina: Okay, Im ready.Izzie: Alright then.Izzie: Did you see George in there? I didn't see him.Callie: He's probably gonna be late. We sorta had a big emotional day.Izzie: Oh, really? Did-- Did something happen between you two? I mean...Callie: No, it's just that I was named Chief Resident.Izzie: Oh.Callie: And plus, we decided to have a baby.Izzie(shocked): A baby?Callie: Yeah, we're trying. We tried today in fact.Izzie: Wow.Callie: Yeah... big day.(they are all getting ready for the wedding)Alex: Does anyone have any deodorant?Cristina: Uh, you're not putting my deodorant on your hairy armpits.Izzie(penciling in Cristina's eyebrows): Uh, don't move or you're gonna have a unibrow. And there's some in my locker.George(indicating his jacket): Closed? Open?Meredith: Closed. You look dashing.Izzie: You look great.Meredith: Dr. Bailey.Bailey: Yeah, what?Meredith: Cristina needs to cut something. I can't really explain it in a way that won't make you glare but... they took her eyebrows and they called her a Burke. She really needs to cut something.Bailey: Yang, go... do getting married things. Get outta this hospital.Cristina: Hey!(Meredith looks scared at her outburst, Bailey glares)I mean...(nicely)Hey. I... I -- You have to let me cut because I am standing here, eyebrowless, with no diginity left. I am a surgeon, Dr. Bailey. But right now I don't feel like one, I feel like -- like somebody else. Do you know what that's like to not feel like yourself?Bailey(softly): Yeah.Richard: It's probably unfair, but I hold you to a higher standard. And you let me down this year, Preston. After you got shot, the tremor. This job is about making the tough calls. Sometimes the toughest call you can make is admitting when you're in over your head. You don't do that. You know a lot, Preston. You're one of the best surgeons that I know... One of the best men. But, you're not perfect, you don't know everything. I wanna give you the job, I want to... but I can't.(Burke gets up)Preston...Burke: I have a wedding to get toAdele: We've met before. You probably don't remember, you were little. My husband always flirted with your mother. I didn't wanna see that, so I watched you a lot. I watched you grow up, you turned out well. I'm sorry about your mother.Meredith: I'm sorry about my mother too.Adele: It wasn't your fault. Maybe it wasn't anyone's fault. We got married at 25 thinkin' that this was it. Happily ever after, maybe there is no happily ever after.

Cristina: Who am I on?Bailey: Uh, I didn't page you. Go home and get some sleep.Cristina: Yeah, but I'm here already, so...Bailey: You're getting married in less than 12 hours.Cristina: Well, uh, Burke's getting married too and he gets to operate.Bailey: There's only one Preston Burke.Cristina: There's only one Cristina Yang.Bailey: I've given you the day off, the whole day. It's a kindness, take it. It's your wedding day. There will always be more surgeries.Cristina: But...Bailey: Really? What would you rather be doing prepping a patient or prepping for your wedding? Go home.va(closes the door): I have every reason to go, and -- and -- and yeah, Im scared, and yeah this is moving at warp speed, and yeah Im freaking out, but Jeff is good, and Jeff is the father of my child, the man is out buying a car seat right now, and the minute he gets back... I have every reason to go, because medically theres no need for me to stay... medically....Alex: Oh, yeah, okay, then Ill just check the chart, well see what...Ava: Damn it!Alex: What?Ava: Are you... do I have to spell everything out for you? Did you sniff too much glue as a child? Im asking you something here!Alex: What do you want from me?Ava: I- I want you to give me a reason to stay, a real reason... Jeff is a decent guy, good decent guy, but to him Im Rebecca and I dont know if I am Rebecca anymore... you know me, you knew when I couldnt even speak who I was. You named me Ava and I was more me as Ava, than Ill ever be as Rebecca... Look I have every reason to go back to my life and I will, unless you... Alex, Im asking you to give me a reason to stay here, a reason from you...Alex: Jeff loves you, he is a decent guy...Ava: Alex give me a reason...Alex(walks over to her): I think you should stick with the decent guy...(Alex leaves and Ava stays in her room crying)Izzie: Let me speak. Because I'm your best friend and because I love you, if what you want is to be with Callie, then I would do anything in my power to support you and help you make your marriage work. And because I'm your best friend and because I love you, I also have to say... that I'm in love with you... I'm in love with you. I can't promise a future, I can't promise perfection because we're us and I'm me, and who knows what would happen. But in my heart, I'm sure. I'm in love with you, George, and I hope you're in love with me too... Say something...(everyone comes rushing in the door to get ready for the wedding)Cristina: Hes gone.Meredith: I I dont think hes gone. His stuff is still here.Cristina: No. His trumpet was here. His entire Eugene Foot collection, vinyls and CDs. His grandmothers picture was by the bed. His lucky scrub cap was hanging on the door. Hes gone. Im Im free.(she starts crying)Damn it. Damn it, damn it, damn it!(gasping, she grabs at the chocker necklace)Oh god, take this off! Take it off, take it off!Meredith: Stand still, just for a minute.(Cristina indicates the dress)Ill get scissors.Cristina: Help me, help me!(Meredith cuts the wedding dress off and holds Cristina, who is sobbing uncontrollably)Cristina: Im ready, Im fine. Meredith talked me down. Go, go, go, Ill be right behind you.Burke: Im sorry.Cristina: Oh, no, I can do this. I had a momentary freakout, but now Im fine. I can do this.Burke: But you dont want to do this. Im up there waiting for you to come down the aisle, and I know you dont want to come. I know you dont want to come but that youll come anyway because you love me. And if I loved you, if I lovedyou, not the woman that Im trying to make you be, not the woman that I hope youll become, butyouif I did, I wouldnt be up there waiting for you. I would be letting you go.Cristina(shocked): I am wearing the dress. I am ready. And maybe I didnt want to before, but I want to now. I really think I want this!Burke: I really wish that you didnt think. I wish that you knew.George: Dr. Bailey.Bailey: You didnt go to the wedding either.George: No.Bailey: Imso sorry, George.George: Sowhat do I do now?Bailey: You fail your intern test, you have two options. You can walk away from being a surgical resident altogether, or you can start from the very beginning.George: Repeat my internship? No. I cant. I cant.Bailey: Did Idid I fail you, George?George: No. No! I failedyou.Alex: Shes not Ava anymore, shes Rebecca now and I barely know her.Addison: Look at me. Look at me! You suck. To me, you suck. I kind ofhate you. But Alex, we do not get unlimited chances to have the things we want. And this I know. Nothing is worse than missing an opportunity that could have changed your life. And no matter what her name is, shell always be Ava to you.Burke: I am not optimistic. I am not hopeful. I am sure. I am steady. And I know... that Im a heart man. I take it apart, I put em together, I hold them in my hands. I am a heart man. So this, I am sure: you are my partner, my lover, my very best friend. My heart,my heart, beats for you. And on this day, the day of our wedding, I promise you this: I promise you to lay my heart in the palm of your hands. I promise you me.(Addison sighs)Too trite? Because I can rewrite it...Izzie(teary-eyed): No. No, its...Addison: I think I speak for every woman in this room when I say, dump her. Dump Yang and marry me.(everyone laughs)(Meredith is wrapped up in a toliet paper wedding dress while Callie writing Cristina's vows on her hand)Cristina: You know, I thought I was gonna hate this party game thing, but it's kinda great. Can we set her on fire after?Meredith: No, we cannot.Callie: Hey, these wedding vows are not all gonna fit on here.Cristina: Write smaller.Callie: Hold still please, 'vow' just became 'cow'.Izzie: You don't need vows on your hand. When you get up there, just speak from the heart.Cristina: Izzie, the heart is an organ. It pumps, circulates blood, and gets clogged from time to time. It does not, however, speak. It doesn't have tiny little lips on it.Izzie: Well, you're all glass totally empty.Cristina: I'm gonna like getting married. It's the wedding part that's ridiculous.(they all get paged)Izzie: Party's over.Cristina: Hey, mine didn't go off. Piece of crap.Meredith: You can do this, right?Cristina: Become a piece of chattel, sure looking foward to it.(Cristina starts helping Meredith unravel the toliet paper wedding dress)Meredith: No matter what, you're walking down that aisle today. I need you to go down that aisle.Cristina: Is the toilet paper cutting off your circulation?Meredith: You and Burke, it's a sign. It's a sign that people like you and me can do this. Be healthy, be happy. You marrying Burke restores my faith in me.Cristina(sarcastic): Oohhh, I get it! My wedding's about you.Meredith: Yes.(After Burke left Cristina at the alter)Meredith(addressing everyone at the wedding): It's over. You can all go home now. It's over.Soover.
