Cristina: knocks and enters You up?
Derek: No
Meredith: Yes
Cristina: The wicked witch is dead.
Meredith: Metaphorically dead? or dead-dead?
Derek: Who are we talking about?
Meredith and Cristina: Hahn
Cristina: Her name is off the surgical board, her surgeries have
been cancelled. I don't know how or why, but I do know,
Hahn is gone.
Derek: It's too bad, she was really talented.
You're not talking to me.


Cristina: Apparently they went back-packing around Europe
together or something. Before med school. That woman all
but kicked me out of the bed.
Derek: It's terrible.
Cristina: And Dith? Meredith's name is not Dith, it's Mer!
Derek: I really feel for you.
Cristina: And she's never even mentioned this woman. I mean
how good of a friend could she be?
Derek: Good enough to kick us both out of bed.
Welcome to my world.



Sadie: This woman is the reason I went to med school in the first place.
I feel like if a slacker like Dith could handle slicing people open...
Cristina: whispers Mer
Derek: Meredith's not a slacker
Sadie: Oh, I could tell you some stories.
Meredith: But you won't.



Lexie: Um, these are..ah, scratches from my kitten. He's a crazy
scratchy scratcher.
Cristina: You're a cat person?
Lexie: I meant hair brush. It's a..I have a crazy scratchy hairbrush.



Derek: So she's your pre-Cristina, Cristina.
You gonna tell me why she calls you Dith?
Meredith: Oh no, the adventures of Dith and Die are better
left untold.
Cristina: Hey, Pedia's julienning her skinny little chicken arms
and still no word on what made H hitch a ride with the flying
monkeys. Later!
Derek: Translate that for me.
Meredith: Lexie may be a secret cutter and there's still no word
on why Hahn quit.
Derek: Is that true, about Lexie?
Meredith: I don't know. How would I know?
Derek: So what are you gonna do about it?
Meredith: Nothing
Derek: Meredith, you can't do nothing. She's your sister.
Meredith: And?
Derek: And your family.
Meredith: I'm not understanding.
Derek: Lexie's your family.... Forget it.




Mark: Someone page us?
Owen: I did.
Derek: You did? That's a first.
Owen: So's this. I've seen a lot of trauma; guys cut in half,
amputations, evicerations. But I've never seen anything like this.
I wondered if you could help.



Mark: This guy's circling the drain.
Derek: You can not just walk away.
Owen: Don't tell me how to run things in my ER.
Mark: Your ER???
Derek: We save lives here, we don't just patch up patients and
leave them to die. You can't handle that, go back to the desert and
leave us here to do our jobs.




Cristina: Dr. Dixon, I'm Cristina Yang. I'm a resident here and I've
been focused on cardio since I began my internship. I'm certainly
looking forward to anything you might...
Dixon: Were the other ones taken off my case?
Cristina: Oh, what other ones?
Dixon: The black one, the male one, the woman with yellow hair.
Cristina: Not that I'm aware of.
Dixon: Then why are you talking to me?




Callie: She's not coming back.
Cristina: You don't know that.
Mark: She kinda does.
Cristina: How?
Callie: Because she doesn't..it's too..we had a fight.
Cristina: Oh please, Meredith and I fight all the time. We still
work together. It's not like Hahn was your girlfriend or something.
Oh my God..she was your girlfriend?
Callie: We hadn't figured it all out.
Cristina: Wait, so are you a lesbian now?
Mark: I don't know, maybe you were a once-bian.
Callie: Or a twice-bian, whatever. It's over.
Cristina: Are you okay?
Mark: She's fine, leave her alone.





Meredith: Oh come on really?



Meredith: No, I'm just a compassionate person and I'm just
wondering if you're channelling your tragic pain into self
mutilation. Are you a secret cutter?
Lexie: No
Mark: Little Grey, Torres is trying to set a world record for the
most titanium rods used in one patient, you in?
Meredith: Little Grey?
Mark: Little Grey, Big Grey. How I tell you two apart.
Lexie: Yea, I'm in; I'll just be a minute.



Sadie: Who wants to stitch me up?



Derek: You gonna tell me about Dith and Die?
Meredith: Nope, but I did speak to Lexie for you. And now I need
you to do something for me.
Derek: What's that?
Meredith: I need you to tell Mark to keep his little Sloan out of
Little Grey.
Derek: Was he hitting on you?
Meredith: No, not my little Grey, Lexie's little Grey.
I don't know what's going on with her, but the last thing she needs
is Sloan going all man-whore on her. So, you need to tell him to
step away from Little Grey.
Derek: Alright, I'll see what I can do.
Meredith: Little Grey, Derek...Little Grey


Mark: She ah, she say goodbye to you?
Callie: Nope.
Mark: You okay?
Callie: Do I look okay?
Mark: You look great.
Callie: Then I'm okay.




Dixon: Are you familiar with Asperger's Syndrome Dr. Bailey?
Bailey: Um, of course..significant impairment during social
situations.
Dixon: I'm not good at cues like sarcasm or condescension; but I
do know when I'm being manipulated and I know when I'm being
made fun of. I don't think I like this hospital very much.
I don't think I like this hospital at all.


Derek: Mark, Meredith has some concerns.
Mark: Well that's not news.
Derek: About Lexie. Apparently Lexie is..fragile.
And getting involved with a superior might make her more
fragile.
Mark: I was talking about her sutures.
Derek: Keep little Sloan out of Little Grey is my point.
Mark: What?
Derek: Little Sloan does not enter Little Grey. Are we clear?
Mark: Did you just say?
Derek: mmhmm
Mark: Okay that's just creepy..and inaccurate. Big Sloan.


Lexie: I can explain.
Cristina: I did not teach you the parallel pulley stitch. I can
barely do that stitch myself.
Whatever you guys are doing, shut it down. Do not practice on
yourselves, that is insane. Shut it down!



Derek: Tell me the stories.
Meredith: What stories?
Derek: The ones you won't let Sadie tell me.
Meredith: giggles They're ancient history.
Derek: hmm
Meredith: Humiliating and ridiculous.
Derek: Ridiculous is a grown man telling another grown man
to stay out of a woman's 'little.'
Meredith: You did it?
Derek: I did, those exact words. I did it because, it was nice
to see you stick up for your sister. I did it for you. So now,
YOU owe me a story.
Meredith: Ok fine, but you can never tell anyone. Ever.

Sadie: You usually read on the bathroom floor?
Meredith: I didn't want to wake Derek. These are my mother's
journals. From when she was a resident.
Sadie: I thought we hated your mother.
Meredith: You know I kinda think now, if I wasn't her child
I would have liked her. I mean, she was funny and intense;
A lot like Cristina.
Sadie: Intense, I get from Cristina; funny, not so much.
~~~
Sadie: What do you think about, what's her name..your
sister Lexie?
Meredith: What do I think about her?
Sadie: Yea, as an allie for me. My new intern BFF.
Meredith: No, I..no..I don't see that. I just, she was raised
right; with parents and rules, and smiley face posters on her wall.


Sadie: Hm, hot.
Meredith: Porny.
Alex walks in
oh, um, what are you doing out here?
Alex: What, you think you're the only one who paid off a nurse to
page you with an api.
Meredith: That's not what I meant.
Izzie moans through her door
That's what I meant. If you're out here then who's in there with
Izzie?
Derek!?!?!
Derek: comes out of their room What?
What? What's the matter?
Meredith: Nothing, nothing..I just..um
Derek: What are you doing dressed? It's 3 in the morning.
Who's making a porno movie in Izzie's room?
Alex: Relax, she's flying solo; It's hot.
Iz, party's over we've got an api coming in.
Sadie: yells Dith? Let's go.
Derek: She's living here too, Dith?
Meredith: Just for a couple of days, till she get's her own
place; then she's gone.
Derek: No more strays.
Meredith: No more strays.



Callie: Guy was sleep walking and took a two story header through
a plate-glass window. Night terrors.
Mark: Can you imagine? You wake up, you're battered, you're
bruised and you don't know where you are or how you got there.
Callie: Yea, sounds like my life. Married, betrayed, gay, abandoned,
and then I woke up and had no idea how I got here.
I just figure this is the bottom, this is as bad as it gets. I can only
go up from here.
I do believe she spoke too soon, as she gets punched in the face
by the night terror patient, who has yet to wake up.



Callie: I can't believe this is happening.
Mark: It wasn't a great nose anyway.
Callie: Yes it was! It was a nice nose.
Mark: Relax, I was kidding. It was a gorgeous nose
and it will be again. Two weeks from now you won't even be
able to tell anything happened; umm..three weeks, four tops.
Callie: I hate you.
Mark: You love me.
Callie: oww
Mark: Little pinch
Callie: ow..ow ow ow ow
Mark: Oh come on, that didn't hurt.
Callie: Ow, yea maybe if I was having a good year, it would
feel like a little pinch. But it hurts Mark. It hurts a lot.
Mark: You know what, I was going to do this with some
local, but I think we'll use conscious sedation.
That way when you wake up, your nose will be fixed and
it'll be a whole new day.
Callie: Okay, well..I atleast I still have you right?
You'll still be my friend and have sex with me when I want?
Mark: Anytime; you know, once your face heals.
Callie: I hate you.
Mark: You love me.



Derek: Dr. Sloan, Little Grey.
Mark: I needed some medical supplies. Found the intern in the
supply closet. Did not invite the intern into the supply closet.
Derek: Hmm
Lexie leaves
Mark: Stop looking at me like that, I didn't do anything.
Derek: Don't do anything.
Mark: I didn't.
Derek: Don't.
Mark: I didn't.



Sadie: I find the fact that you have parents and rules and
smiley face posters, oddly comforting.



Ivy: Hey, how's that doctor my dad hit?
Mark: She'll be okay.
Ivy: Tell her I'm really sorry.
Mark: Why you sorry, you didn't hit her?



Alex: Where are the stooges?
Cristina: Well that moron's a moron and the other morons are
AWAL.
Alex: I need an intern to page me if my guy agrees to crap.
Meredith: I wonder if they're in the skills lab; Sadie said
something about the skills lab.
Cristina: Sadie's in the hospital?
Alex: All that time in the skills lab is actually paying off.
My interns are still idiots; but atleast they're idiots that can put in
an IV.
Cristina: No, they're just idiots. takes off after the idiots
Meredith: So, what's going on with Izzie?
Alex: I don't know what's wrong with Izzie.
I'm sick of people not talking to each other.
I'm gonna go get my crap chick some crap.


Cristina: Come with me you're gonna do the post-op orders on
the api and you're gonna tell me all about whatever
trouble you and your little friends are into.
Do you need a leash? Let's go!
Steve:No
Cristina: What do you mean, No?
Steve: I mean I kind of can't walk; due to the catheter and
the epidural.


Mark: It's your fault you know. I never thought about Little Grey
in that way until you told me not to. Now I can't help it.
You planted a seed.
Derek: Unplant it.


Lauren: I believe that you believe it was a pimple.
Seth: Lauren
Lauren: That's the best I can do. I believe that you believe it...
Seth: It was a pimple!!
Lauren: It was a staff infection!
Seth: No pooh! No pooh for you!
Alex: Wait! Dude, she could lie to you and tell you what you want
to hear, but she's not. She's telling you what's real for her.
Stop walking away.
Lauren: I still think this could be stomach cancer and when I
get a headache, I think it's a brain tumor. And I lay awake and
feel lumps in my breasts and then my heart starts to race and I
think I'm having a heart attack. So no, I don't think it was a
pimple. The world is a scary place and there are a thousand things
a day that can kill you and I don't see how you don't see it.
~~~~~
Seth: I'm here for my wife, but I think it's better for our sex life
if I don't see this. So, I'll be here for her down in the lobby.




George: I just heard; What the hell happened?
We live together, you should have come to me.
Lexie: So what, you could have saved me?
George: No, maybe I could have stopped you.
Lexie: No,this isn't about you. George, this is the one thing that I've
done in the past few months that wasn't about getting you to notice
me. I did this; you had nothing to do with it. This was all me.
Graciella: Dude, she's like in love with you. How did you miss that?


Mark: Your dad won't be out of surgery for atleast another hour.
You could have a little nap. What are you thirteen; you hitting the
hard stuff?
Ivy: I like the taste.
Mark: I was raised by parents who weren't very interested in
having kids. They had friends, they had lives. They were't
around much at night. Before I went to bed, I'd turn on all the Tv's,
every light in the house, even the closets. Still couldn't sleep.
It's hard to sleep when you don't feel safe in your own house, isn't it?
Ivy: Yea
Mark: Give me that; you are going to sleep.
Ivy: No
Mark: I'm not taking no for an answer. Close your eyes, I'll be here.
Go on, close your eyes. taps his shoulder


Chief: I was sleeping and sleep isn't easy for me to come by.
But I was finally sleeping, then I get a call..
Meredith: I can't believe it. I still can't believe it.
Chief: Don't beat yourself too much about it. I've seen a lot of
maturity in the two of you through this whole mess.
You handled the crisis, you handled the surgery, saved that
girls life. And you called for help right away. There was a time
not so long ago that you would have reached a different conclusion.
You could have stuck to the code and saved your won. Tried to
hide the whole mess. You know sometimes protecting your
colleagues is solidarity and sometimes it's just hubris.
I'm glad to see you know the difference.




Meredith: You knew. You knew...
Cristina: No
Meredith: ...they were going to cut her open?
Cristina: No
Meredith: Lexie just said you knew!
Cristina: Sutures, I knew they were doing sutures on themselves.
I didn't think I needed to say anything, because I had shut it down.
I had handled it.
Meredith: Apparently you didn't, because it almost cost Lexie her job
not to mention that Sadie almost died in there.
Cristina: You know what, Sadie did that to herself and lets not
pretend that you have some sort of relationship with Lexie. Let's
not pretend that you care about her.
Meredith: I care about my job and I care about doing the right thing.
Cristina: Who are you to lecture me on doing the right thing. Are
you kidding me. You're not an attending Meredith, you may be
sleeping with one, but you aren't one yet.
Meredith: Is that what this is about. Derek? It's always going to be
about Derek?
Cristina: Fine it's not about Derek. It's about you and me and the fact
that you didn't have my back in that room.
Meredith: What would you have wanted me to say?
Cristina: I don't know, anything! You should have said anything.
You have a relationship with the Chief; you have his ear.
But you didn't say anything to defend me. Because this isn't just
on me. I mean you just stood there and watched him take me out
of the running for solo surgery. You let me take all the blame. The
fact is we all had interns in that room. We all failed to supervise
them. And if your friend had died in there, if you and I hadn't saved
her life, that would have been on all of us too. You should have said
that.


Bailey: I raised my babies. You were my babies. Now you all
grown folks. It's on you. You raise your own babies.
~~~
Bailey: Time for you to make your own speeches.


Cristina: Dr. Grey, present.
Lexie: Sadie Harris, 30, three hours status post appendectomy,
Complicated by severe hemmorhaging.
Sadie: Dith, what is this?
Meredith: Dr. Spaulding
Spaulding: Vitals stable, triple anti-biotic coverage. She should be
fully recovered within two weeks.
Cristina: And
Lexie: And we your surgeons, made mistakes that compromised
your care. Mistakes that reflect poorly on this hospital and that
won't happen again.
Meredith: Effective immediately every intern here is on probation.
So much as sneeze and you're done.
Cristina: None of you will see the inside of an OR until further notice.
George: You've lost the Chief's respect; which believe me is not an
easy thing to get back.



Alex: And speaking for myself, you've lost my respect and you'll
probably never get that back.
Pierce: But he still respects Izzie Stevens.
Alex: What did you say?
Pierce: You seem to still respect Izzie Stevens and she killed a
patient.
Alex: She was trying to save a man's life and you almost killed a
friend for fun, it's different.


Bailey: How you doing?
Callie: ugh, they give good drugs here!
Do I look bad?
Bailey: Oh you look beautiful. Just badge of honor all over your
face.
~~~~~
Bailey: I hate api's. Just api's bore me. I resent the appendix for
bothering to get hot and needing to come out. I resent an organ.


Mark: Your mom used to see how tired I was. She used to make
you bring me home. Cause I was all alone and needed a family.
That was a good thing. So either you bring her home or I will.




Meredith: Hey
Derek: Hi
Meredith: Lexie's here.
Derek: Yea
Meredith: You making up a bed for her?
Derek: Yea
Meredith: You brought home a stray.
Derek: Yea

Cristina: Go ahead and will yourselves to be voted in;
use "The Secret."
~~~
Alex: What? come on this is bogus?
Bailey: You're just figuring that out? Steve is not a lip reader,
none of the interns are lip readers. You just have to wait for the
attendings to vote. Just like we did when I won.
Cristina: You won your solo surgery?
Bailey: I'm just going to pretend you didn't feel the need to ask
me that question, Yang. Of course I won! I was good, didn't cut
L-VAT wires, put my hand in bomby body cavities, didn't have
my interns operating on themselves. I was special; I was young
gifted and black.



Lexie: Hi, I get it I'm the one who organized the crazy cabal of
secret cutter interns. The thing is, I've been advised to seek
out sex as a way out of my sad predicament. But I think, I
would rather just learn today. So, what do you say?
You, me..
Mark: Why are you talking about sex to me? It's inappropriate
I'm your teacher.I have things to teach. Double board certified
things.
Lexie: That..that..that's what I was talking about. For you to
teach me medicine. The sex, that was a joke.

Sadie: Tell me everything there is to know about Karev.
Meredith: Why?
Sadie: I'm his intern. He seems cool enough at your house.
Though, whatever he has going on with the girl who masturbates
all the time, I don't like to judge but..Still officially, I'm his intern
so what's his deal?
Meredith: Sadie, I can't be your friend in here. I mean I'm a
resident and you're an intern. You're gonna have to figure out
how not to piss off Alex Karev, yourself.



Holly: I hate you!
Emma: I hate you more!
Callie: I hate you both.


George: I know you still see me as 007. But that was day one, I've
grown a lot since then.


Meredith: Hey, so you know I deserve this. You know I'm the
most qualified. But, I don't want it to be a big awkward thing.
I don't, so you do what you have to do.



Dixon: A system, devise a system. Rank everyone accordingly.
That's all. Thank you.



Callie: Ok.. ok.. the intern, Meredith's friend.
Mark: The psycho, with no appendix.
Callie: Yea, we talked. I mean, she came and talked to me. But it
was like more than that. You know? A guy looks at you a certain
way. Bang you just know. But this girl thing is so confusing.
Mark: Well was there touching?
Callie: No.
Mark: Was there playing with the hair?
Callie: No.
Mark: Was there licking of the lips?
Callie: Oh my God, I made it up. I made it up, because I'm
lonely, depressed and desperate for attention. From the hot
new intern.
Mark: Crazy new intern.
Callie: Crazy, hot..
Mark: NO! The hot ones are the ones that cause trouble. The
ones that distract you from realizing your true potential. You
need to focus on the medicine. Take all that pent up sexual
frustration you waste, thinking about hot, young, naked,
available interns, and put it back into your genius.


Mark: You're in my space. Back up, just back the hell up.
Dr. Bailey would you please find Dr. Grey something to do
other than interfere.
Bailey: Uh, Dr. Grey finish prepping Mrs. Patterson for surgery.
Mark: She was in my space.


Alex: Dude, you were robbed. You got screwed by politics.
Chief, he needed an escape-goat. It's so unfair. laughs
I'm sorry I can't do this. I can kiss ass when I have to, but not
yours. Below the knee amputation...medical....
I've done four of them; one on a cadaver, three on STAN.


Owen: You know that, you know they're capabilities. Go with
your gut.
Cristina: My gut, I'm not putting a patient's life in the hands of
a novice surgeon, based on my gut.
Owen: Well it worked for me.
Cristina: Ha, your gut.
Owen: It's what told me to choose you.



Bailey: But don't you need to...
Mark: Dr. Bailey, would you rather do Mrs. Patterson's surgery
yourself? I can leave.


Bailey: Dr. Sloan, I wasn't questioning your surgical skills, I was
just trying to learn. Something exciting; something new.
These residents are running around, fighting tooth and nail
for a chance to get to cut off a leg. Look what you've done here,
you made something where there was nothing. It's thrilling.
I was just trying to learn, that's all.
Mark: Thank you, Dr. Bailey. Now would you take the flap
veins and join them to the internal jugular please.


Izzie: Have you ever had mind blowing sex? The kind of sex
that makes you want to die. Just fall on the floor and give up
and die. Cause the sex I'm having, it's that good. It's the best
sex I've ever had. In fact it's the best sex anybody's ever had.
I don't know why anybody who's had this kind of sex would
do anything but have sex.
Cristina: Izzie
Izzie: You're gonna give the solo surgery to Mer, which is
typical and boring and slightly corrupt. But atleast I'm having
really, really, really good sex. Yea, just thought you should know.


Meredith: So you were right. Cristina and I are fighting.
Derek: You should go, talk to her. She's your best friend, it's
important.
Meredith: Derek?
Derek: They don't tell you when you become a doctor it's gonna
be like this. They don't tell you that you're gonna lose more
patients than you save. Sixteen, I'm sick of the death.
Meredith: I'm sorry.
Derek: I'll see you.
Meredith: Okay.


Dixon: Dr. Yang, you tortured her today. Making her choose
amongst her peers. Some kind of emotional torture. Is that
your intention?
Chief: Yes.
Dixon: Have your board make me a better offer.


Meredith: We're fighting and I don't want to be. Let's just put
this past us. What happened with the Chief and the interns
doesn't matter. I know that's why you didn't choose me and
I know that's why you made it personal. So, let's just move on.
Cristina: You made it personal. This right here, is you making
it personal. You told me to do what I had to do, so I chose Alex.
He was the most prepared. That's why I didn't choose you, not
because we're fighting, but because unlike you, I can separate
my personal life from my job. You made it personal.
to the room
None of you said anything those were all our interns. But I won
this, they picked me, if I dont deserve this solo surgery then
none of us do.


Meredith: Hi you paged?
Alex: I need you to scrub.
Meredith: Where's Izzie?
Alex: I'm freaking out. I'm freaking out! I told her I love her.
I told her I love her before a solo surgery. I can't believe that,
who does that? And now she's not gonna show up and I'm
freaking out.
Meredith: Stop, stop freaking out. If you screw this up and kill
this guy, I'm gonna be pissed. Then I'll know I should have won
it. You have to kick ass in there Alex, you have no choice.
Chief: Big night Karev, you ready? Are you ready?
Izzie: walks in He's ready.



Owen: It's out of time, out of space; anything can happen.
Cristina: Like what?
Owen: Just wait.


Lexie: You made her speak. Mrs Patterson, she said Hi. You
made her speak.
I respect you; as a man, as a surgeon, as a teacher. I respect you.
So, teach me.
starts to remove her clothes
Mark: What are you doing? Don't do that, stop.
Lexie: Teach me.
Mark: Stop
Lexie: Teach me
Mark: We can't do this. You're Little Grey and I..I promised.
And I'm your teacher.
Lexie: So teach me.
Mark: Oh, Lexie.
Lexie: Teach me. Teach me. Come on am I really so bad?
Mark: No, I am. kisses her


Meredith: Hey that's one of us down there, show some respect.
