Izzie: It's a lot of pressure.
George: Yeah
Izzie: Let's just do it again.
George: Right back on the horse.

Derek: What's new with you?

Meredith: I saw my half-sister half naked.

Derek: ohh

Meredith: What's new with you?

Derek: I had dinner and a movie. With the Chief.

Hey, you can stay.

Meredith: I think I'm gonna go. Leave you wanting more and all

of that.

Chief: Dry cleaning.

Derek: Yeah, you want some coffee?

Chief: And tell them there's a stain on the left sleeve of the blue one.

I'm thinking Godfather tonight.

Derek: Sounds good.

Chief: I'm gonna make them an offer they can't refuse.

That's Brando.

Derek: Yeah, got that.

Mark: She's sassy.

Derek: She's a woman of substance. You two have nothing in

common.

Derek: I'm late. Dropped off the Chief's dry cleaning.

Mark: You're doing his laundry?

Derek: We're helping each other out.

Mark: Yeah, what's he doing?

Derek: He has an extensive DVD collection.

Mark: You're dating the Chief.

Derek: Ha!

Meredith: You look weird.

George: I don't look weird.

Meredith: What's wrong?

George: I look fine.

Meredith: I know you.

George: It's horrible. The sex with Izzie. Horrible. It's like she's

trying too hard. It's..you ever see a porno? Not that Izzie's a porno

she's an angel. But, it's like she's trying to channel a porn star.

And she's trying to act all dirty and sexy, which sounds great right?

But in reality, I just want to say Izzie just because you can do
that with your legs. Doesn't mean you should.

Meredith: Ah..I wanna run.

George: Run, run..run now.

Izzie: Oh! I love George,

Meredith: Oh God.

Izzie: I do. I love him and I'm so happy because..he's kind and

smart and sweet. Sexy. He's perfect. Perfect. Except for the

fact that he kisses like a chicken. You know? A chicken pecking

the ground for food. Just pecking and pecking and pecking.

When he's pecking at me like that, I forget that I love him. I

forget that he's kind and sweet and sexy. And I Just want to

scream stop pecking me. Did he peck you like a chicken Mer?

Cristina: Morning

Meredith: Cristina needs me.

Bailey: Chief had on his stern face.

Bailey: Dr. Torres wanted me to tell you, to find another specialty.

Cristina: Why?

Bailey: It's not gonna work with Hahn. So you need to find a way

to make it work with another specialty. I suggest you try the ER.

Mark: What do I tell my patient?

Hahn: If it were me I'd tell her to age gracefully.

Lexie: Wait! What's your daughter's name?

Mr. Brotherton: She doesn't have one yet. We just adopted her a

week ago and just been trying to get to know her.

Mark: Hahn took my OR. She's pushy.

Cristina: Pushy and rude.

Mark: Is she doing a staple tractotomy?

Cristina: Yea she's trying to save as much lung tissue as possible.

Mark: Doesn't make up for pushy and rude.

Cristina: No it doesn't.

George: That's what you wanted?

Izzie: No. I mean yes. That's not what I meant.

George: What did you mean then?

Izzie: Let's just not ever talk about this again. Please.

Mark: I'm a person of substance. Plastics isn't all face lifts. I do

many substancial life changing surgeries.

Derek: hmm

Mark: And everyone thinks it's so easy being the Chief's girlfriend.

You need to talk, I'm here.

Derek: ha!

Callie: Thank God for men who ride motorcycles. Right Yang?

Cristina: Right

Chief: Is there a problem?

Bailey: Uh..just a little adminstrative traffic jam. Dr. Torres has

it under control.

Chief leaves

Okay here's what's gonna happen: take crap man and put him in

the same room with lazy facelift. They can abuse each other. The

baby can stay another night. Now get out of here and if anyone

asks, none of this was my idea.

Cristina: I was in ortho all day there's no finesse to breaking bones.

Mark and Cristina: Carpentry.

Mark: You want finesse you should try plastics. It's all finesse.

Cristina: Yeah, no room for error when you're dealing with

someone's face.

Mark: It's more than just facelifts. I'm a board certified ENT. I

take out tumors. It's also a lot of facelifts. But even a facelift, I'm

changing a life. Holding someone's future in my hands.

Cristina: Holding a heart is way better.

Derek: What did you do tonight?

Meredith: I stayed late at work because my house is a brothel.

What did you do?

Derek: Oh no. Ugh..dinner and a movie.

Meredith: Dinner and a movie?

Chief walks in

Chief: Oh..uh..dinner...ahhh..I'm sorry I'll just uhh..I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Izzie: It's a box of fun and booze. Cause I figure it can't hurt.

Alex: You definitely don't want to go in there.

Meredith: Alex. George and Izzie?

Alex: Yeah.

Meredith: The Chief just saw me naked.

Alex: Huh..nice.

Lexie walks up

Meredith: I thought I said no having sex with her at this house.

Alex: I didn't invite her over.

Lexie: Hi

Alex: Hey

Lexie: Alex do you want to get a drink at Joe's?

Alex: Yeah..sure.

Meredith: Alex

Lexie: There's no rule that say's he can't have a drink with me.

Meredith: Actually there is. I'm making one. No drinking with

Alex. No sleeping with Alex.

Lexie: What exactly did I ever do to you?

Meredith: Get your own friends. Get your own life. Stop

living in mine.

Lexie: Screw you!

I'll wait at the car.

Meredith: I know that was mean. But she's everywhere.

Alex: You say she's not your sister. You say you don't

want to know her. So why the hell do you care so much?

Meredith: I don't. I don't. I don't care.

Chief: All I'm saying is, the next time you have company, lock the

door.

Derek: All I'm saying is next time you come over, you should knock.

Mark: What do you know, you're dating the Chief.

Derek: You know what, that joke's not funny anymore. It's overused.

Mark: Lover's quarrell?

Derek: Haha. Geez.

Chief: We're not quarrelling. It's not a quarrell.

Derek: More importantly, we're not in...

Chief: If I go to the trouble to choose a movie, he should have

enough common courtesy to mention it if he makes other plans.

A phone call, a note..something. And if he's not gonna pick up

my shirts just tell me. I'll pick them up. I'm perfectly capable

of picking up my own shirts.

Derek: No. No you're not. You're not capable of picking up

your shirts. You're not capable of doing anything on your own.

If I wasn't around you'd starve in a dirty shirt and die a lonely

death.

Chief: Oh for God sakes.

Derek: You know I offered you a place to put your trailer and

you've been taking advantage ever since. You can't handle

picking up the dry cleaning or doing the cooking so I have to

pick up all the slack.
Chief: Hold that thought..leaves
Derek: You see, he can't handle the truth.

Lexie: I was looking for you because I was wondering if.. if you

would meet me later in the on-call room.

Alex: I can't.

Lexie: Oh I thought you said.

Alex: Yeah I know what I said okay. I can't.

Lexie: Because of Meredith?

Alex: Look, I'm not getting involved in whatever you two have

got going on. I'm not choosing sides.

Lexie: Except clearly you are.

Chief: Dr. Bailey. You've been covering for Dr. Torres.

Bailey: Chief, I've just been shuffling a little paperwork.

Chief: You've been doing the lion's share of the chief resident's

work. All of the responsibility and none of the credit.

You deserve the credit. You deserve the job. I should have

given it to you in the first place. I hope you take it now.

Because what you do and how you do it, makes this hospital

work.

Bailey: Well it's about time you noticed.

Lexie: I'm not stalking. I just.. I hate apples. Hate them. Think

they shouldn't be allowed to be a fruit. That's one. And two, I

can draw really really well on an Etch-a-sketch. Like really well,

like I could be a professional. If that profession existed. I play

the trombone. Badly. I like math and I notice that you do this

thing with your hands when you're trying to make a point. Like

this with your hands. And I know that's about you but I do it too.

So it's also about me. So that's five. That's five things that I'm

hoping will make it a little bit harder for you to hate me.

Meredith: Alex. Alex, will you take my sister home. Come on she

plays the trombone and whatever. Just take her home please.

Chief: I married Adele two years out of college. There's a lot I need

to learn to do for myself.

Derek: Just pick up your own shirts from now on.

Chief: Taxi Driver?

Derek: Meredith is coming over.

Chief: Ugh, better get back to my trailer.

Derek: haha

Chief: You talking to me?

Derek: Deniro?

Thatcher: It's just down to the store..Lexie.

Alex: Why don't I go. My car is right here.

Thatcher: I'm fine.

Alex: What do you need? Scotch? Vodka? Gin?

Lexie: Scotch

Um..just don't tell Meredith.

Meredith: What did you do tonight?

Derek: Nothing. You?

Meredith: Nothing

Derek: It's late. Shouldn't you be going soon?

Meredith: I just want to lie here for a few more minutes.

George: That was amazing. Finally.

Izzie: See, I knew we had it in us.

George: That was as good as the first time.

Izzie: No it was better. Way better.

George: No you're right. Because we weren't drunk and well I'm

not married. That was just..

Izzie: incredible

pause

You're lying

George: Well so are you.

Sydney: So, why the brain? Why biology's crown jewel?
Derek: You mean why did I go into neurosurgery?
Sydney: Come on share. Share with Sydney.
Derek: It was the headset. With the magnified glasses that tipped
the scale for me.
Sydney: hahaha, the man has a sense of humor. I like that.

Mark: Is she dying? Is that why?

Derek: Oh, grow up. She's nice. She asked me out.

Mark: I'll fake a heart attack. I do a great fake heart attack.

Derek: Here she comes.

Mark: Carry on.

Meredith: I think they're on a date. That's definitely a date right?

Cristina: Maybe she's dying.

~~~~~~~~

Cristina: It's Sydney.

Meredith: In the movies when the handsome but sensitive

football player kisses the awkward but freaky girl in front of

the whole school. That girl is her.

Cristina: You are very awkward and freaky.

George: We're avoiding them now. It's come to that.

Meredith: Why are you avoiding Izzie?

George: It's like we're not us anymore. Everything used to be

so easy. Talking used to be easy. Now we can't even talk anymore.

Meredith: Uh, Derek went on a date with Sydney Heron last night.

It's probably a fake date to make me think he's healthy and moving on.

George: And do you think he's healthy and moving on?

Meredith: Lets just take the stairs.

George: Okay

Trisha: My ass? I broke my ass?

Alex: That's one way to look at it.

Mark: Don't look at it.

Callie: Okay youre gonna need surgery. But the good news is,

we'll put you under so we can fix the bones and Dr. Sloan can

fix your face all at the same time.

Trisha: You better be good.

Mark: Baby, you're not gonna find anybody better than me.

In a whisper to Alex Oh my God, hot cheerleader ass.

Cristina: Take a cue from Stevens. Izzie Stevens. Seriously?

Meredith: You need to cut Izzie some slack. Her and George

are having problems.

Cristina: Already? It's only been a week. At that point you

don't even talk. All you do is have sex.

Meredith: Doesn't mean you can't have problems. Derek and I

are having all kinds of sex and he's dating other people.

to the girls You didn't hear any of this.

Hahn: A treatment plan you could have made yourself Dr. Bailey

if you weren't acting like such a blithering idiot.

Thatcher: Meredith!!! See that's her. Meredith Grey!

Thatcher: The last time I was here I said some terrible things

to you. Telling you not to come to Susan's funeral. It wasn't

your fault. I know you did everything you could. What I said to

you I'll regret it till the day I die. And the drinking..it's unacceptable

and..But today is Susan's birthday and I..

Meredith: Should I go get Lexie?

Thatcher: No just you. I just want you.

Lexie: I was prom queen and class valedictorian.

Izzie: Yeah I wouldn't broadcast that.

Lexie: I had a great group of friends. You know?

Izzie: Not really.

Mark: You can tell me.
Girls: You look exactly like her dad.

Chief: Swing and a miss.

Derek: I promised this kid life gets better after high school.

He deserves to see that.

Izzie: He's got a good friend. That's something. That girl has

been by his bedside all day.

Derek: Yeah but even so those cliques are miserable. He needs

to know it passes eventually.

Rose laughs

Rose: Sorry Dr. Shepherd.

Derek: What's so funny?

Rose: I'm just not sure we've come as far as you'd like to think.

Clique wise.

Derek: We?

Rose: The hospital.

Derek: You think the hospital's cliquey?

Thatcher: I'm so proud of you. I'm a lifetime..a lifetime's worth

of proud.

Meredith: Hey, how was your date with Sydney?

Derek: ugh, I was wondering when you were gonna bring that up.

Meredith: My dad's in the ER.

Derek: Really

Meredith: He cut himself. He's not bad company actually. He's

quite funny and charming..drunk. Is it weird that I like my drunk

dad better than my regular dad?

Derek: A little.

Meredith: Are you okay?

Derek: Um, my patient is in a coma and he's never gonna wake up

again. His best friend is in the waiting area. Poor thing thinks he's..

she thinks he's gonna wake up any second. You know..

Meredith holds Derek's hand

Meredith: Sure you can. It's just like cutting a class. Pause

You never cut a class?

Cristina: Never, not once.

Meredith: Ha!

Izzie: Marissa, I know that this seems impossible. I know.

But you will get through this. Danny would have wanted

you to.

Marissa: You don't know what he would have wanted. You're

just like them. You're a prom queen and you're trying to act like

you know what it's like for me. Lady you have no idea what it's like.

Izzie: I wasn't a prom queen. I was the girl in the cheap clothes

from the trailer park. Who got pregnant and got thrown in a

pregnant girls class. None of the mothers would let their kids

hang out with me. But I got through it. You will get through

this.

Rose: You have no idea who I am. Do you?

Derek: Course I do.

Rose: Bye. Dr. Shepherd.

Derek: You're the nurse in OR 2. The one that talked about cliques.

Yeah, right?

Meredith: I know it was Susan's birthday and I'm sure it was

a very hard day for the both of you. And he wasn't actually

a problem. He was kinda charming. But he seemed very sad

and I'd hate to see it happen again. So maybe you should

think about keeping a better eye on him.

Lexie: Every day is my mother's birthday. My mother was

born in March. He lied. He's a liar. And I'm glad, really I'm

glad that you found him charming. I'm sure he was

delightful. He's a blast after five drinks. Not so much after

nine though, he gets a little weepy and mean. He's a drunk

Meredith. He probably came in and told you how wonderful

you are. How sad he is that he doesn't get to spend more time

with you. Yesterday he said that I was his favorite daughter.

The day before I was an ungrateful bitch. The week before

he wrote me a check for 20,000 dollars because he said I

deserved everything life had to offer. Because he was so proud

of me. A lifetime's worth of proud. So thank you for letting me

know that I have to keep a better eye on him. Thanks.

Chief: Meredith you want to come in for a minute and sit down?

~~

Meredith: I'm sorry about all this.

Chief: Meredith please you have nothing to apologize for. Nothing

at all.

Meredith: I'm keeping you from doing your job.

Chief: This is my job. Atleast part of it. Think of it as the

principal's office. Only I'm the nice principal. Anyway I

promised your mom I'd take care of you.

Meredith: I told you, you don't have to do that.

Chief: I know. I know I don't. But I do.

George: With all do respect this has reached a critical mass. You

saved his life and he's taking you for granted. You know what

he deserves? A long speech. You need to go back in there and

give him a long long speech.

Alex: I don't do secrets. I don't do any of that fifteen year old..

oow I'm gonna tell you but don't tell anyone else.

Lexie: We're not talking about who made out with who at the

Halloween dance. Okay this was a private family issue.

Alex: Your dad's a drunk. I had to start cleaning up my dad

when I was seven. That's when I turned into the grownup of the

family. So you got to wait till you were 24. Good for you.

Derek: Good night Bailey.

Bailey: Sit down.

Derek: What?

Bailey: Sit down!!

Derek: You okay?

Bailey: Yeah what do you care? With your hair products and your

perfect little face. Perfect little life. What do you care how I am.

Derek: My perfect little life? Have you been paying attention at all?

Bailey: Yeah I pay attention. I pay attention. I pay attention to

people in all walks of life. All types. I notice people. I see people.

It's guys like you. Who don't see people like me.

Derek: I don't see you?

Bailey: Clearly..I'm not talking about you Shepherd. Just guys

like you. Who don't see girls like me. We don't exist for you.

We exist to do your homework. We exist to build your ego up.

I am a successful married mother. I am CHIEF resident. I am

CHIEF resident of a major metropolitan hospital. I'm a surgeon.

Who saved his life today. And he still doesn't see me. I may as

well still be that high school girl with the mushroom haircut and

the cokebottle glasses and the band uniform. The girl who didn't

get to go to homecoming dance cause it didn't occur to him to

ask me. All those late nights tutoring him and it didn't even occur

to him to ask.

Derek: Hmm, band uniform. Really?

Bailey: Do I look like I want to be mocked by you right now?

Derek: No, you don't. I'm just gonna say one thing. In high

school, I was 110 pounds and I hadn't yet figured out hair

product so I had a big afro. And um, had acne. And I too wore

a band uniform. Sax.

Bailey: Oboe.

Derek: I would have been honored to take a girl like you to

homecoming.

Derek: Hey Rose. Rose.

Rose: You know my name.

Derek: I had to ask around. But now I know.

Rose: Well good for you. Good night.

Derek: Hang on. I should have recognized you from the OR today.

We worked together for three hours. It's thoughtless.

Rose: I've worked on 36 of your surgeries and today was the

first time we made eye contact. Like I said, hospital is no better

than high school. Good night Dr. Shepherd.

Derek: Hey dad! Wanna get a drink?

Sydney: Derek

Derek: Sydney

Sydney: I'm a lot of woman. I bring home the bacon. Fry it up in

a pan. Serve it on eggs or on a sandwich or crumbled up in a Cobb

salad.

Derek: Well you do a lot with bacon.

Sydney: Not just bacon. But Derek, I bring a lot of things to the table.

And I'm looking for a man who can do the same. A man who can

meet my needs. All my needs. I just don't think you're ready.

Derek: Well you might be right.

Derek: Apparently I'm not good at meeting needs. And I don't

bring that much to the table.

Meredith: I'm awkward and freaky.

Derek: mmm

Meredith: Do you want to get out of here?

Derek: I do.
