Opening monologue: Meredith Grey
As doctors, patients are always telling us how they would do our jobs.
Just stitch me up, slap a band-aid on it and send me home.
It's easy to suggest a quick solution.
When you don't know much about the problem.
When you don't understand the underlying cause or
just how deep the wound really is.
The first step toward a real cure is to know exactly what the disease is to begin with.
But that's not what people want to hear.
We're supposed to forget the past that landed us here and ignore the future
complications that might arise and go for the quick fix.
Closing monologue: Meredith Grey
As doctors, as friends, as human beings, we all try to do the best we can.
But the world is full of unexpected twists and turns.
And just when you've gotten the lay of the land,
the ground underneath you shifts, and knocks you off your feet.
If you're lucky, you end up with nothing more than a flesh wound.
Something a band-aid will cover.
But some wounds are deeper than they first appear and require
more than just a quick fix.
With some wounds, you have to rip off the band-aid, let them breathe,
and give them time to heal.
