Episode 5x04 "Brave New World" monologues


Opening monologue: Meredith Grey

In 6500 B.C. some guy looked at his sick friend and said I have an idea why don't I drill a hole in your skull, it'll make you feel better and thus surgery was born.
It takes a certain brand of crazy to come up with an idea like drilling into somebody's skull.
But surgeons have always been a confident bunch.
We usually know what we're doing and when we don't, we still act like we do.
We walk boldly into undiscovered country, plant a flag and start ordering people around.
It's invigorating and terrifying.


Closing monologue: Meredith Grey

We like to think we're fearless.
Eager to explore unknown lands and soak up new experiences.
But the fact is we're always terrified.
Maybe terror is part of the attraction.
Some people go to horror movies.
We cut things open. Dive into dark water.
And at the end of the day, isn't that what you'd rather hear about?
If you've got one drink and one friend and 45 minutes.
Smooth rides make for boring stories. A little calamity..
that's worth talking about.
