ABC PRESS RELEASE
ABC: T.R. Knight is leaving 'Grey's Anatomy' - Friday, Jun 19, 2009
Things were left mighty final for George O'Malley in the most recent 'Grey's' finale
BC is making it official: T.R. Knight won't be back on "Grey's Anatomy" next season.
Series creator Shonda Rhimes lauded Knight on Friday as an "incredibly talented" actor and wished him the best in his future work.
Knight played Dr. George O'Malley on the hospital drama. In the season finale that aired in May, George had been severely injured in an accident and appeared to be at death's door - or beyond.
Knight's role on "Grey's Anatomy" had been diminished this season and the actor had asked to be let out of a contract that still had three years left to go.
In a statement, Knight said the decision to leave wasn't easy and said he'd miss his fellow cast members and the show's crew. He also thanked fans for their enthusiastic support.

Spoiler Chat: Who's Taking a Break From Grey's Anatomy? - Mon., Jul. 6, 2009
Amanda in Miami: Since Grey's Anatomy is dropping castmembers like flies, any chance Melissa George could return as Sadie Harris?
"I don't think so," Melissa tells us of a possible return engagement for Sadie on Grey's Anatomy. "I think she did so much damage that she needs to go." If Sadie's a no-go, hit the comments with who else you would want to see return in her place.
Grace: Has Grey's Anatomy figured out how they're going to work around Ellen Pompeo's maternity leave yet?
Erm. Grey's is such a hairy show to report on. We'll tell you this, and maybe you'll forgive us for taking the long way around. A source tells us that ABC didn't want Rachel Griffiths (who gave birth to her third child on June 21) to skip any episodes of Brothers & Sisters and that production was pushed back a week to accommodate her maternity leave. What does that mean for Grey's? Well, if ABC doesn't want a Griffiths-less B&S, you could assume (just assume) that they really wouldn't want a Pompeo-less Grey's Anatomy. Pompeo's due this fall though, so there would be no real way to push back production. Solution? Well, we're just spit-balling ideas here, because no one's confirming anything, but you could do what our source tells us is a possible scenario for dealing with Ellen Pompeo's maternity leave: When E.P. gets back from her baby break, shoot a bunch of Meredith Grey scenes in succession, and then have your editors work overtime to slot her scenes into the episodes that were shot/produced before her return, therefore giving the audience the full Meredith Grey experience with no gaps.
Cal in Orlando, Fla.: Is it true that Chandra Wilson will be directing an episode of Grey's Anatomy this season?
Yep, sources confirm that Chandra Wilson will be directing an episode of Grey's Anatomy this season, although we've actually heard that another actor was negotiating to direct an episode of Grey's Anatomy this season, as well as make a couple of other tweaks to his/her contract to allow him/her more creative and personal freedom.
Grey's Costar to T.R. Knight: Please Don't Go! - June 4, 2009
Justin Chambers doesn't want T.R. Knight to hang up his scrubs just yet.
"T.R. is an amazing actor and I want him to be there as long as I'm on there," Chambers, who plays Dr. Alex Karev on Grey's Anatomy, told us the other night at the Salvatore Ferragamo benefit for L'Aquila Earthquake victims. "He's wonderful to work with."
Besides, Knight's character, Dr. George O'Malley, has so much growing to do...
"That's one great thing about the show," Chambers said. "All the characters have so much to explore. The audience followed these young interns coming into this hospital and now they're residents, but they have more to learn as far as surgery, social skills and manners."
Former Grey's star Melissa George says she's not convinced that Knight is definitely leaving. No matter what happens, she said, "He will go on to bigger and better things."

Jessica Capshaw: ‘Grey’s’ Creator Doesn’t ‘Burden Us’ With Futures Of Heigl, Knight
While fans of “Grey’s Anatomy” have been left to speculate on the future of original castmembers Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight, some of their co-stars are no better off.
Access Hollywood caught up with Jessica Capshaw, who plays Dr. Arizona Robbins on the ABC show, to ask her if she had any insight as to the futures of Izzie Stevens and George O’Malley.
“I will absolutely be quoted as saying [series creator] Shonda Rhimes is an absolute genius because she doesn’t tell anyone anything,” Jessica said.
And in fact, not knowing what lies ahead on the show was just fine with Jessica.
“That’s actually very generous of her because she doesn’t want to burden us with knowing and not being able to tell you – or telling you!” she added.
However, Jessica’s future with the show also remains up in the air – she revealed she has yet to receive her renewal letter.
“Knock on wood,” she said.
The actress, who joined the show in 2008, was hopeful she would be returning to Seattle Grace, along with the rest of the cast.
“It’s so fantastic. It’s funny that there’s so much drama surrounding the show, because you’ve never met a better group of more decent people,” she told Access. “It’s as normal as it gets.”

Ask Matt: Can’t We Just Leave Grey’s Alone?
Question: I’ve read about T.R. Knight being released from his contract at Grey's Anatomy, and while I wish him the best, I think it's too bad because a storyline centered on George's recovery would have given him lots of really great material. Especially since he has frequently been played for comic relief in the past, it would have been interesting to see him do something with enormous dramatic weight. However, the other thing that I felt surprised me: an amazing pity for the show.
I remember back to the fall of 2005. It had been a solid but moderate hit in the spring, I started watching reruns over the summer (when ABC still gave us those) and kept telling everyone how wonderful and beautifully written this show was, even though most people I knew were turning their TVs off after Desperate Housewives ended. Grey's was my little show that could. And then the Super Bowl episode changed everything. For the remainder of the second season and the beginning of season three, the show kept its quality up while suddenly becoming a much bigger deal. Then came the Isaiah Washington debacle, and shortly after that, you could see the show slip ever so gradually in quality, as though the writers were cracking under the strain of all the attention. Then came Gizzie and ... well, you know the rest.
Obviously, in this day and age of Internet gossip, there's going to be a lot of media coverage of any show that becomes a massive hit. But Grey's especially seems a fond target for this kind of media firestorm over and over. It almost seems that the media wants the show to fail in order to have a scapegoat. And as much as I wanted more people to watch prior to the Super Bowl episode, now that it is a megahit, I wish that it could be left alone. Even at times when it makes huge misfires, there's still some good stuff going on to partially offset that (Alex/Jane Doe keeping the show watchable during Gizzie, Owen/Christina during Izzie/Denny, etc.), but it feels like you can see the stress from the media attention affecting the show more than any other series in prime time right now. And I wish it could get back to a place where Shonda Rhimes and her staff only need to worry about producing quality TV instead of all this other crap going on which causes their behind-the-scenes issues to hang out to dry for the media. I'm not sure there's really a question in here, but I felt like writing in to say this in defense of the show. Why has everyone decided to pick on Grey's, and why so constantly? It probably would make itself into a better show if we all laid off it.—Jake
Matt Roush: Success on TV truly is a double-edged sword, and there’s no doubt that the Internet culture has merely inflamed the hype-em-&-hate-em nature of the entertainment media. There’s also no question that Grey’s Anatomy invited much of the criticism and negative press on itself. Many of the backstage messes (the Isaiah debacle, the sudden ouster of Dr. Hahn) were at least as troubling as the various misbegotten storylines culminating in last season’s bottom-scraping sleeping-with-Denny’s-ghost mess. But look at it from another angle. The passion generated by this show, pro and con, at the very least indicates that people still care deeply about these characters. I’d argue that it would be far worse if we ignored it and didn’t get bent out of shape when the show hits the skids (as in the Denny storyline) or, conversely, rejoice when the show does things right (as in the last run of episodes, which hit a number of emotional sweet spots). Would Grey’s benefit if everyone let up on it and just let the writers get back to work without worrying about the occasional overreaction? Maybe so, but that’s not a world that exists anymore, and I’m not sure they’d like it if it was. As for George and T.R. Knight, it’s probably a relief for all parties involved to let him die a hero’s death. There didn’t seem to be that much room for the character to grow anymore, and a painful rehabilitation might have just felt that way dramatically. Personally, I’m thrilled to get the chance to see him back on stage in the months to come. Like David Hyde Pierce, he’s done his time on TV for now, and can go back to his first love.
Question: I'm really surprised to see headlines on several entertainment sites about Grey's Anatomy actors and their contracts. I'm one who doesn't like to read spoilers and so I'm frustrated by these headlines. Is this just the way things are in the entertainment world? Is it only avoidable by staying away from any and all entertainment news??—Cyndi
Matt Roush: I truly feel for all those who would love to enjoy their TV shows spoiler-free. It’s not easy, and it’s especially tricky when legitimate news breaks (as in the case of the Grey’s contract negotiations) that impacts the future of a show and its key characters. This is nothing new, though. As long as I’ve been on the beat (dating back to the glory days of prime-time soaps, when stars from Dallas and Dynasty made headlines on a regular basis), entertainment reporters have chased scoops regarding actors’ contracts from season to season, and it was probably inevitable in this case (especially considering the cliffhanger) that when news broke, you’d have to be living in a cave to stay shielded. All I can say is: Sympathies.
This aspect of Grey’s media coverage inspired another response from the loquacious Jake who provided our opening topic: “When are producers going to realize that now that we're in the Internet age, any cliffhangers relative to a character's mortality are unlikely to work as effectively as they might want them to? While it was certianly a huge shock when George was revealed as the John Doe bus victim, now that the news of Knight's release from his contract has appeared, we know George is dead, because the show is simply above recasting him with another actor. Similarly, Damages' first season capper with Frobisher being shot was a shock when it happened, but FX promptly announced when doing press for season two that Ted Danson would be back and used his picture in promotional images and promos, effectively revealing the character lived before we were meant to find out about it in the second season premiere. (For that matter, Danson's name in the opening credits did that too, right before he showed up at the end of the first commercial break.) I'm not sure of a solution to this problem, but it does weaken the story points. I read ‘small’ spoilers but generally avoid big ones, and while in this case the contract information was bound to leak out, it is still kind of upsetting that I didn't get to find out about George's death in a meaningful way through the show.”

Ask Matt: How Good Are Bad's Emmy Chances?

Today's News: Our Take - Mega Buzz on Grey's - Jun 2, 2009
Any scoop to get us Mer-Der fans through the dog days of summer? Perhaps some "baby talk" about Grey's writing in Ellen Pompeo's pregnancy? — Hillary
MATT: Both Chyler Leigh and I are of the mind that Grey's Anatomy would be hard-pressed to accommodate Pompeo's pregnancy, if only because of the timing. "As far as I know they are not [writing it in]," Leigh told me, pointing out that by the time the ABC serial resumes production, "Ellen will be, like, seven months [along]." The only way I see it happening — and at least one source allows, "It could go either way" — is if Season 7 picks up five or six months after the recent finale. Such a jump would also allow poor George time to heal and look like recast Eddie Cibrian. (I kid!)
If Fox is serious about Fringe (and aren't we all), why is it forcing it to compete against CSI, Grey's Anatomy and The Office on Thursdays? — Anita
MICKEY: At first blush, moving Fringe to such a powerhouse night would appear to be a suicide mission. But Fox entertainment prez Kevin Reilly lays out his strategy thusly: "[CSI and Grey's] are two still-terrific appointment shows, but they're down. They are not consuming all the oxygen at 9 o'clock" he insists. "[Fringe] got a huge amount of buzz coming out of the last batch of episodes ... and is a real alternative to both of those shows. It's not an overlapping audience." Oh yeah, Kev? Tell that to my DVR, which is already groaning at the prospect of Thursday nights this fall.

I read ‘small’ spoilers but generally avoid big ones, and while in this case the contract information was bound to leak out, it is still kind of upsetting that I didn't get to find out about George's death in a meaningful way through the show.”

Ask Matt: How Good Are Bad's Emmy Chances?
http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/ask-matt/ask-matt-how-good-are-bads-emmy-chances-1344.html?&page=2
Today's News: Our Take - Mega Buzz on Grey's - Jun 2, 2009
Any scoop to get us Mer-Der fans through the dog days of summer? Perhaps some "baby talk" about Grey's writing in Ellen Pompeo's pregnancy? — Hillary
MATT: Both Chyler Leigh and I are of the mind that Grey's Anatomy would be hard-pressed to accommodate Pompeo's pregnancy, if only because of the timing. "As far as I know they are not [writing it in]," Leigh told me, pointing out that by the time the ABC serial resumes production, "Ellen will be, like, seven months [along]." The only way I see it happening — and at least one source allows, "It could go either way" — is if Season 7 picks up five or six months after the recent finale. Such a jump would also allow poor George time to heal and look like recast Eddie Cibrian. (I kid!)
If Fox is serious about Fringe (and aren't we all), why is it forcing it to compete against CSI, Grey's Anatomy and The Office on Thursdays? — Anita
MICKEY: At first blush, moving Fringe to such a powerhouse night would appear to be a suicide mission. But Fox entertainment prez Kevin Reilly lays out his strategy thusly: "[CSI and Grey's] are two still-terrific appointment shows, but they're down. They are not consuming all the oxygen at 9 o'clock" he insists. "[Fringe] got a huge amount of buzz coming out of the last batch of episodes ... and is a real alternative to both of those shows. It's not an overlapping audience." Oh yeah, Kev? Tell that to my DVR, which is already groaning at the prospect of Thursday nights this fall.

Dream a Little Dream of Me - Reloaded
Posted by oncetherewasaway (.Grey Girls.) at Apr 3 2009, 09:44 AM. 3 comments
Shonda told us that everything that happens in Season 5 is here in the first episode. Hmmmm, she is a sly and shiftly one. Damn her for making us think! 
So after transcribing and breaking the scenes down ( I have them numbered). Pick one .... Choose one! Choose randomly..... meaning no particular order, so yeah, choose your favorite scene. You don't need to choose in order... just pick 1 or 2 or 3 .... whatever. Read it, watch it .... read what you want into it and give us your thoughts and take on the scene.... your own narration or quips!. Copy paste your scene at S&D and lets get to discussing your post-age. Hopefully after a bit of discussion and laughter we can make sense of what happens in the final 4 episodes. Have fun!! After discussion and digestion I will bring our final thoughts here.
Note: in watching episode I have sometimes inserted my own little smart alecks..... excuse, I just couldn't help it sometimes. Ignore and post away!!!
This is one site I use when transcribing..... easy to stop and rewind

5.01~5.02 Dream a Little Dream of Me, September 25, 2008
Meredith: [voice over] We all remember the bedtime stories of our childhoods. The shoe fits Cinderella, the frog turns into a prince, Sleeping Beauty is awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time .... and then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales .... the stuff of dreams. The problem is, fairy tales don't come true. It's the other stories, the ones that begin with 'dark and stormy nights' and end in the unspeakable. It's the nightmares that always seem to become reality.
Scene 1
Scene opens to a flatlining, Chief Webber and Cristina looking into a exam room window and Meredith rushes thru the door.
Meredith: WHAT HAPPENED?!
Christina: A bus in front of him hit a telephone pole. He tried to swerve to miss it but......
Cristina and Webber attempt to calm Meredith down.
Meredith: How bad is it!?
Webber: Meredith.
Christina: You gonna have to be strong
Meredith: (screams and runs to glass window) Derek!......... No! ......No!
Scene thru window , Bailey doing chest compressions, Mark removes ambu bag, hangs head down. Bailey looks up in despair calling time of death.
Meredith: Noooo! Nooooo! Derek! Nooooooo.....Nooooooo.....Nooooooo......Nooooooo......Nooooooo..........
Scene 2
(Meredith startles awake from dream on gurney in basement)
Meredith: [voice over] The person who invented the phrase 'happily ever after' should have his ass kicked so hard!
Scene 3
Scene of Bailey sitting at computer with Erica, Derek, Cristina and Mark hovering around, peeking over her shoulder trying to have a look at screen.
Bailey: Back up... you’re sucking up all my oxygen.
Derek: I’m trying to see.
Bailey: It’s not up yet. There’s nothing to see.
Erica: It was supposed to be posted at four.
Mark : It’s four fifteen.
Christina: Hit the refresh button, you have to reload the page
Bailey: I’m hitting the refresh buttons every ten seconds .... just wait.
Meredith: Is it up yet?
Bailey: No.
Derek: (to Meredith) Hi
Meredith: Hi
Alex: Is it up yet?
Bailey: No.....wait.
Mark: Do you think we have a shot to pass Hopkins to move up to number one.
Derek: We’re not passing Hopkins, we’re gonna stay number two.
Erica: Mayo could surge ahead, we could be three.
Derek: Three! Pessimist.
Erica: Realist. The rankings of teaching hospitals changed based on any number of things
Izzie: Ahh, three’s top five, I can live with three.
Alex: (leans over Bailey’s shoulder to hit refresh) Hit the refresh button.
Bailey: Stay back, I’m doing this. (slaps his hand away)
Izzie: (runs in) Hey, is it up yet? (someone answers no, to which Izzie leans over to hit refresh)
Bailey: No!
Izzie: Here, just hit the refresh button ....
Bailey: I’m hitting the ..... okay..... All of you. Back up. Stop hovering, stop speculating. The rankings will go up when they go up. We have no control over when they are posted. When it is up, I will say “It is up!”, Until then backup, shut up and leave me alone so I can push the ......
The computer pings and all gathered around bend down to look at screen.
Meredith: It’s up!
Bailey: Number one Hopkins, number two Mayo...
Erica: Told you.
Bailey: Three Cleveland Clinic?
Derek: What?
Bailey: Four, Mass. Gen.
Izzie: What?
Christina: We moved out of five?
Bailey: No, we’re not five....
Scene 4
(Scene of Webber and George walking down hallway)
Webber: Twelve! Twelve! O’Malley!
George: So upsetting.
Webber: This is not a number twelve teaching hospital
George: No, it’s a great teaching hospital.
Webber: I do not run a number twelve surgical program in the country.
George: Sir .... sir.
Webber: Out with it O’Malley.
George: We’ve been downgraded to a level one trauma center to a level two. What is that even mean? You don’t even ... explaining, it’s just details. (George walks off before Webber can resume his rant)
Webber: Twelve!
Scene 5
Scene in intern locker room
George: Now I couldn’t ask him about when he was going to schedule my intern test with all the you know what hitting the fan. I mean, for all I know he’s gonna spring it like in what? An hour, two hours....
Lexie: And you’ll be ready. Causes of hypotension?
George: Hypervulimia, MI Cardiacdisrythmia.....uhhh.... hypoxia, is that good?
Lexie: (whispers closely behind George) Yeah very good.
George: (quickly turns to Lexie) What? Huh?
Lexie: The snow, it stopped raining. It’s like a fairytale.
George: Lexie, it’s, it’s the fall. It’s not so much a fairytale, it’s global warming. That’s the apocalypse, well that’s like dropping to number twelve and me failing my intern test for the second time.
George leaves the locker room.
Lexie: I adore you by the way.
Scene 6
Scene with Meredith and Cristina walking hallway with Cristina’s interns..
Lexie: Oh hey, sorry I’m late. I was just talking ...
Christina: No talking unless it’s medical.
Meredith: So, I keep having that dream, that Derek is dead dream.
Christina: Who does their residencies at number twelve hospitals? Losers. And I am not a loser. (to her interns) Get the charts.
Meredith: So, the dream is about me being afraid of the house of candles and you know taking the big step and I’m afraid of having a happy ending.
Christina: You know I have a Phd.. in bio-chem . I’m a double doctor. Double doctors should not do their residencies at second rate hospitals....
Meredith: Wyatt says I should just lean into the wind, into the fear. So, I’m just gonna ask Derek to move in with me.
Christina: A transfer. Cleveland Clinic has a huge cardio program
Meredith: We’re still in the top twenty that pretty good.
Christina: That’s not good enough. I wanna be great. Greatness Meredith.
Meredith: Greatness, which is why I’m gonna ask Derek to move in with me. It’s just that it’s.... ya know it’s a big step and I don’t want to mess it up again. I’ve messed it before, the breakups, and the on and off again and the sleeping with George, it just....
Lexie: You slept with George? (Cris and Mer both turn to look at Lexie simultaneously) No talking unless its medical.
Cris and Mer turn back and continue down hallway
Meredith: So I’m just gonna do it, I’m just gonna ask him to move in with me. It’s the right thing, right?
Christina: (beeper goes off and Cris leaves) Uh, Bailey’s paging.
Lexie: So, medically. Meredith and George had sexual intercourse?. Uh....When? How many times?
Christina turns to respond to Lexie but says nothing.... tempted to give her a slap upside the head ... can’t believe Lexie is going there. Cris walks away.
Scene 7
Scene Mark and Derek walking through reception area.
Mark : Humiliating. Twelve.
Derek: Yeah.
Mark : Twelve? You’re the best neurosurgeon in the country.... in the world.(a beat) Don’t you wanna say anything nice about me?
Derek: Ahhh.... you’re the best plastic’s guy at Seattle Grace.
Mark : Nice, really nice.
Derek: Don’t push me to praise you.(Rose walks up to counter replacing a chart) Hey Rose.
Nurse Rose: (ignoring Derek) Hello Dr. Sloan.
Mark: Hmmm ....
Derek: She took it so well in the beginning, I was hoping we could be civilized, ya know she’s working my OR
Mark : Civilize is out. It’s gone, it’s a trail of fairy dust. Now she’s got delayed rage.
Derek: Delayed rage?
Mark : She was being big before, putting on a brave face. Now she’s had time to think, now she hates your guts. You have to break up with her.
Derek: That’s the point, I did already.
Mark : Well you did personally, now you have to do it professionally. Good luck with that. (Mark walks away leaving Derek a bit confused)
Derek: Delayed rage?
Scene 8
Chief Webber stands at railing on the skywalk thinking.... pondering number twelve, Erica walks up
Erica: I’d like a list ...from you... of ways that I can improve.
Webber: Not right now.
Erica: Richard, you told me I’m a bad teacher. Now we’re number twelve and I don’t like to be number twelve, so I’d like a list.
Webber: Not right now. (Walking away from Erica)
Erica: But if there are ways I can improve, ways that I can help the program regain it’s ranking then...
Webber: It’s snowing. You know what happens when its nighttime and it’s snowing and the temperature is hovering right around thirty-two degrees.
Erica: No.
Webber: The snow begins to melt and then it freezes again, creating black ice, the deadliest kind of ice because it’s invisible to drivers. That would usually mean our ER would fill up but Mercy West is the number one level trauma center and we’re not. Which means their ER get the traumas while we get their castoffs, which pisses me off. So when I say “Not right now”what I mean is not right now.
(Webber walks off and Erica turns to see Callie....awkward moment.... avoiding each other, each turn to walk away)
Scene 9
Scene outside ER, Meredith, Bailey, Izzie and Alex appear to be waiting for incoming traumas)
Bailey: Stop shivering, you’re embarrassing me.
Izzie: I didn’t realize we were gonna be outside. (Alex grabs a blanket and wraps it around Izzie) Oh! I’m okay, you don’t have to do that.
Alex: Bundle up, you’re turning blue.
Meredith: Doctor Bailey, it is kinda cold out here
Alex: No one’s coming
Izzie: Maybe some old people with broken hips we can fix.
Bailey: Okay, stop talking. We are Seattle Grace Hospital and rankings or no rankings we are going to stand outside, at the ready on alert and give the best care available to every single patient that arrives at our door. We may no longer be ranked the best but I’m the best and you’re my residents which means you’re the best. It’s a matter of pride people. (Cristina joins the group)
Christina: What are we doing?
Izzie: We’re waiting.
Christina: For?
Meredith: A miracle.
Bailey: Someone will come.
Christina: Doctor Bailey, you know that Mercy West is getting all the traumas first.
Bailey: Someone will come.
Meredith: So we’re standing out here in the hopes that someone is severely injured, wishing and praying that someone is so hurt and so near death that the ambulance has to bring them to here because we’re closer rather than Mercy West.
Bailey: Yep.
Izzie: Wow, you and God are cool with that?
Bailey: Damn, I forgot about God. Alright let’s just go on back inside. (As they turn to go inside a car pulls up to ER, clearly out of control)
Bailey: Whoa, whoa.... whoa. Watch out!
( a woman in an evening gown get out of car, shaken and bleeding from the head)
Meredith: Are you okay?
Sarabeth: I drove the limousine on ice. All by myself, ten blocks.
(Izzie help another woman from the passenger side)
Izzie: You okay?
Betty: My dress, there’s blood all over my dress. What happened?
Sarabeth: What happened was I got us to the hospital in one piece.
Izzie: Please, please try not to move. Okay. Just sit right here until we can get you a wheelchair. We need a wheelchair over here.
Sarabeth: We’re not the patients, where.... what his name.....Billy ......
Bailey: Billy?
Sarabeth: The limo driver, he flew through the windshield.(inside another female passenger is holding limo driver)
Anna: Help him please.
Bailey: Yang, come around and help me. Get a board, bring out a gurney and a C-collar (Bailey and Cristina begin to help limo driver and there’s blood all around, Cristina applies pressure to spurting artery)
Bailey: Press it, press!
Scene 10
Scene inside ER Bailey wheeling gurney while holding pressure to stop the bleed
Webber: What do we have?
Bailey: Billy Matthews, 45, arterial bleed, haven't isolated the cause.
Webber: I got this. Okay, let's get him in trauma one.
Bailey: Okay, but I'm holding pressure over the bleed. I just need
Webber: I got this.
Bailey: I just need—chief…
Scene 11
Scene in ER, Meredith and Izzie are treating Sarabeth, Anna and Betty’s injuries
Betty: What’s going on? Vincent will worry if I'm late.
Izzie: You've been in a car accident. You're at the hospital, but we're gonna take really good care of you.
Sarabeth: Is she okay?
Izzie: Might be a concussion. I'm gonna go order a C.T. And make sure it's nothing more than that.
Anna: All this blood ... we should've waited for the ambulance.
Sarabeth: We did wait. We waited, they never came. And Billy was just hanging there through the windshield.
Callie: Wait, you guys extracted your limo driver from the windshield by yourselves? Wow, that's pretty heroic.
Anna: Isn't Michael answering?
Sarabeth: No. Try Phil again. We shouldn't have even been going to the stupid ball in a storm like that.
George: What ball?
Sarabeth: The Fire and Ice ball—would you believe, in an ice storm?
Anna: Just goes to voice mail. Maybe--maybe their phones are off?
Betty: You can't reach Vincent?
Meredith: Your husbands were in another car?
Sarabeth: We won't ride with them. We're three of the most happily married women ever except when our husbands drag out their cigars, and they drag out their cigars in the limo.
Callie: Well, your arm is not broken, just bruised. So O’Malley here is gonna suture up your cuts, and then you're all set. You ladies are lucky you didn't sustain more serious injuries.
Sarabeth: What kind of doctor are you? You're young.
George: Oh, I'm an intern.
Sarabeth: Interns don't touch the face. The plastic surgeon touches the face.
Betty: What's happening? Where am I?
Anna: We were in an accident. You're okay. We're all gonna be fine.
Anna and Sarabeth both look at Betty concerned, Izzie and Meredith both notice Betty may have issues
Scene in hallway Erica and Callie meet......awkwardness abounds
Erica: Hi.
Callie: Hi.
Erica: I've been really busy.
Callie: No, no, I know. I've been, like, crazy busy. Researching things, a lot of research, in the library. Erica: Oh, yeah, me, too. Incredibly busy. A lot of research, uh, like you, only I use the internet.
Callie: Well, I gotta check in with Bailey, so…
Erica: Me, too.
Both approach Bailey who is sitting at desk.... charting
Callie: Bailey, anything else?
Bailey: Nothing. Nothing else. That's the problem. I'm charting. The chief took my one trauma. I gave up my clinic, and now I'm charting.
The chief wanted you to take a look at these. Billy Matthews. He's the limo driver. Multiple crush injuries from an M.V.C.
Erica: Hemopericardium. (a beat) Hemopericardium can lead to cardiac tamponade, which can be detected by beck's triad--increased J.V.P., Hypotension and muffled heart sounds. This is a teaching hospital. I'm trying to improve my teaching.
Bailey: Well, don't try it on me.
Mark: Want to know how I teach?
Erica: No.
Mark: I'm like a guru—they come to me for help, and I gently guide them along the path to truth and wisdom.
Scene 12
Scene Hallway, George walking and Lexie runs to catch up with him
Lexie: Hey,George.
George: Hi.
Lexie: I heard a thing.
George: Yeah?
Lexie: A surprising thing, a very unexpected, non-medical thing about you and—
George: Oh, hold on. Uh, Dr. Sloan, hi. Sarabeth Briar has got a facial lac but she will only let you touch her.
Mark: You paged me for a cut? What kind of moron are you, O’Malley? Are you a special moron from the isle of complete and utter morons?
George: I don't think so.
Mark: Shut up. (winks at Erica and walks away) Truth and wisdom.
Lexie: He’s an ass.
Scene 13
Meredith walks up to Cristina who is at counter writing in chart
Cristina: You know what? This is what we get for being number 12-- a bunch of women in ball gowns and half-dead limo driver.
Meredith: Those women are amazing. They tried to save his life. That's who I want to be, you know? Cristina: An aging princess?
Meredith: They've been with the same men for years, and they're happy. They did it. I can do it.
Cristina: Mer, I…
Derek: Hey. Who paged me?
Derek and Meredith walk away leaving Cristina thinking what the heck.....we we’re talking
Meredith: Bailey and Izzie paged you, but you should see Bailey first because she's got the limo driver.
Derek: Okay.
Derek: Do you want to move in with me?
Derek: You want to live together?
Meredith: Well, I mean I could-- I just, uh.
Derek: Yes.
Meredith: If—if you don't want to, I.....Yes?
Derek: Absolutely. You sure you're ready?
Meredith: I am leaning into the fear to get a happy ending.
Derek: I don't even know what that means.
Derek and Meredith get to ER exam room where Webber is calling time of death on limo driver.
Webber: Damn it! Time of death--20:47. Limo driver, traumatic arrest. Never regained a pulse. Tell them not to book the OR
Scene 14
Bailey and Cristina at counter in ER
Bailey: : I have a dream, Yang.
Cristina: Excuse me?
Bailey: That one day, a trauma will come through those doors--I have a dream.
Cristina: I share that dream.
Bailey: Number 12. Christina, number 12.
Bailey: Right now dispatch is squawking about three men-- three serious injuries...Every one, they're taking 'em to Mercy West.
Cristina: Three men?
Bailey: That's what I said.
Cristina: You mean like three men who could be married to those ladies in the ball gowns?
Bailey looks up at Cristina realizing she is on to something.
Scene 15
Mark treating Sarabeth in ER
Mark: Little stick.
Anna: Squeeze my hand. Squeeze my hand. Just like when you had Petey, you remember?
Sarabeth: Pete hurt less.
Mark: Yeah, but you're going to love me later when there's virtually no scar.
Bailey: Ladies, um, I've been on the phone with uh, ambulance dispatch. Three gentlemen in a limousine collided with another vehicle on Broad Street. It's possible it was your husbands.
Anna: Oh, no.
Cristina: They're taking them to Mercy West…
Bailey: Which is across town.
Cristina: Unless .... you prefer that they be brought here.
Sarabeth: We can do that?
Bailey: Oh, you can insist.
Cristina: And, if I were you, I would insist.
Anna: Oh, well, then I guess.... I guess we insist.
Sarabeth: Yes, we insist.
Bailey: You insist. (Mark smirks at Bailey)
Scene 16
Chief Webber going out ER doors to meet an incoming trauma
Webber: Am I to understand that you stole these traumas from Mercy West?
Bailey: I have no idea what you're talking about.
Webber: Good job, 'cause now it's personal. Yang, come with me. (doors open on arriving ambulance)
Paramedic: We have a situation. 58-year-old male, MVC, Tachy and 160, BP 80 palp, decreased bilateral and breath sounds.
Webber: What did you do?
Paramedic: I didn't do it. He did. G.I. Joe trached him at the field before I got there.
Webber: With a pen? You trached this guy with an ink pen?
Owen: So?
Webber: Move this guy inside now. Come on now. Let's go. Move, move, move, move.
Cristina: Pen.. Trach. Hot. (Cristina watches in amazement the doctor who has caught her attention go into the ER)
Scene 17
Derek enters ER exam room where Cristina presents
Derek: Okay, what do we got?
Cristina: Vincent Kenner, 58, unrestrained backseat passenger of a limo that took a nose-dive, muffled heart sounds and large scalp lac.
Betty: That's Vincent.
Izzie: Betty. I'm sorry, Dr. Hahn, but she wanted to see her husband.
Betty: Vincent. That's my husband. What happened? Is he all right?
Izzie: I promise to give you an update as soon as we know something.
Betty: No.
Izzie: But right now, I have to get you to the C.T.
Betty: Oh, god. Vincent.
Izzie: I'll bring you back. I'll bring you back.
Cristina: Free fluid in the abdomen.
Derek: Compressed skull fracture.

Erica: Fine.
Scene 18
Outside the exam room in the hallway
Anna: He has a pen in his throat! Oh, Michael! Oh, god, Michael! Oh, god, are you.... Is that a.....is that a pen in his throat? Does he have a ballpoint pen in his throat?
George: Ma'am, you need to wait outside. Let the doctors work.
Anna: But they have to be very careful with him. Michael's been under an incredible amount of stress lately and .... and the last thing he needs…
Webber: Grey, can you handle this woman, please?
Meredith: Mrs. Loomis, we're gonna take you to your husband. He's around the corner.
Anna: Sweetheart, I'm here. Michael, I'm here sweetheart.

Sarabeth: What happened to him? Michael!
Mark: You trached a man in the field using a ballpoint pen?
Owen: That’s all I had on me. What, it's not like I didn't clean it off with fresh snow.
Alex: That's awesome.
Owen: Really? You're going with a size six shiley tube on this?
Mark: Somebody get this guy away from me.
Bailey: Uh, I'm gonna need a C.T. of, uh, his belly, chief. Karev, get us in line.
Mark: Looks like his trachea's crushed. I'm gonna need an O.R. And an extra set of hands. Who's available?
Bailey: Grey.
Mark: The good Grey?
Bailey: The intern Grey.
Webber: And I'll throw in O’Malley.
Mark: Oh, nice. Perfect.
Anna: Phil? Oh, my god. Oh, my god. What happened?
Phil: The limo hit a patch of ice. Next thing I know, we’re all upside down, rolling around, and now. Anna.. I can't feel my legs.
Anna: Oh, Phil. I'm so sorry.
Callie: Okay, get her out of here. I gotta get a consult from Shepherd.
Scene 20
Cristina comes down hallway to speak with Webber.
Cristina: Oh, sir, Dr. Hahn is working on multiple crash injuries. She wants you to take a look.
Webber: Mm-hmm, I'm on my way. (to Owen) You're bleeding.
Owen: Oh, my car was right behind theirs at the intersection. I cut it on impact.
Webber: And you triaged these men?
Owen: Major Owen Hunt, U.S. Army, second forward surgical. I'm a trauma surgeon. I just got home on leave.
Webber: Dr. Yang, take care of Major Hunt's leg.
Cristina: Uh, sir, I'm .... I'm scrubbing in with you. Webber: After you take care of Major Hunt.
Cristina: Hey, where are you going?
Owen: To check on my other patients.
Cristina: No, no. You are the patient.
Scene 21
Izzie in CT room as Alex comes in
Betty: Hello? Vincent? Are you there? Where am I?
Izzie: You've been in a car accident, Betty. You're having a C.T. It's gonna be okay. Everything is okay, don't move.
Alex: Some nut job down there trached a guy with a pen. Pretty freakin' cool.
Izzie: You want cool? Check this out, every 30 seconds.
Betty: Is someone there? Where am I?
Izzie: You've been in a car accident, Betty. You're having a C.T. It's okay. Every 30 seconds, her memory resets .... every 30 seconds.
Alex: Might not be so bad. Like hitting the refresh button, everything is new again.
Izzie: How you doing?
Alex: You keep asking me that, and I keep telling you, I'm fine.
Izzie: I know, it's just.. sometimes I still think Denny's gonna be right around the corner, and he's been dead a long time now. It just takes a while to get used to.
Alex: Rebecca didn't die. It's not like that for me. I'm good. But thank you for asking.
Betty: Hello? Is someone there? Where am I?
Alex: You're in a spaceship. You're going to the Moon, enjoy the ride.
Izzie: Alex.

Betty: A space ship? Excuse me?
Izzie: You're having a CT, Betty, you're gonna be okay. You've been in a car accident, just don't move. Thanks a lot.
Alex: Bailey paged me. I'll see you later.
So after transcribing and breaking the scenes down ( I have them numbered). Pick one .... Choose one! Choose randomly..... meaning no particular order, so yeah, choose your favorite scene. You don't need to choose in order... just pick 1 or 2 or 3 .... whatever. Read it, watch it .... read what you want into it and give us your thoughts and take on the scene.... your own narration or quips!. Copy paste your scene at S&D and lets get to discussing your post-age. Hopefully after a bit of discussion and laughter we can make sense of what happens in the final 4 episodes. Have fun!! After discussion and digestion I will bring our final thoughts here.
Note: in watching episode I have sometimes inserted my own little smart alecks..... excuse, I just couldn't help it sometimes. Ignore and post away!!!
This is one site I use when transcribing..... easy to stop and rewind

5.01~5.02 Dream a Little Dream of Me, September 25, 2008
Meredith: [voice over] We all remember the bedtime stories of our childhoods. The shoe fits Cinderella, the frog turns into a prince, Sleeping Beauty is awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time .... and then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales .... the stuff of dreams. The problem is, fairy tales don't come true. It's the other stories, the ones that begin with 'dark and stormy nights' and end in the unspeakable. It's the nightmares that always seem to become reality.
Scene 1
Scene opens to a flatlining, Chief Webber and Cristina looking into a exam room window and Meredith rushes thru the door.
Meredith: WHAT HAPPENED?!
Christina: A bus in front of him hit a telephone pole. He tried to swerve to miss it but......
Cristina and Webber attempt to calm Meredith down.
Meredith: How bad is it!?
Webber: Meredith.
Christina: You gonna have to be strong
Meredith: (screams and runs to glass window) Derek!......... No! ......No!
Scene thru window , Bailey doing chest compressions, Mark removes ambu bag, hangs head down. Bailey looks up in despair calling time of death.
Meredith: Noooo! Nooooo! Derek! Nooooooo.....Nooooooo.....Nooooooo......Nooooooo......Nooooooo..........
Scene 2
(Meredith startles awake from dream on gurney in basement)
Meredith: [voice over] The person who invented the phrase 'happily ever after' should have his ass kicked so hard!
Scene 3
Scene of Bailey sitting at computer with Erica, Derek, Cristina and Mark hovering around, peeking over her shoulder trying to have a look at screen.
Bailey: Back up... you’re sucking up all my oxygen.
Derek: I’m trying to see.
Bailey: It’s not up yet. There’s nothing to see.
Erica: It was supposed to be posted at four.
Mark : It’s four fifteen.
Christina: Hit the refresh button, you have to reload the page
Bailey: I’m hitting the refresh buttons every ten seconds .... just wait.
Meredith: Is it up yet?
Bailey: No.
Derek: (to Meredith) Hi
Meredith: Hi
Alex: Is it up yet?
Bailey: No.....wait.
Mark: Do you think we have a shot to pass Hopkins to move up to number one.
Derek: We’re not passing Hopkins, we’re gonna stay number two.
Erica: Mayo could surge ahead, we could be three.
Derek: Three! Pessimist.
Erica: Realist. The rankings of teaching hospitals changed based on any number of things
Izzie: Ahh, three’s top five, I can live with three.
Alex: (leans over Bailey’s shoulder to hit refresh) Hit the refresh button.
Bailey: Stay back, I’m doing this. (slaps his hand away)
Izzie: (runs in) Hey, is it up yet? (someone answers no, to which Izzie leans over to hit refresh)
Bailey: No!
Izzie: Here, just hit the refresh button ....
Bailey: I’m hitting the ..... okay..... All of you. Back up. Stop hovering, stop speculating. The rankings will go up when they go up. We have no control over when they are posted. When it is up, I will say “It is up!”, Until then backup, shut up and leave me alone so I can push the ......
The computer pings and all gathered around bend down to look at screen.
Meredith: It’s up!
Bailey: Number one Hopkins, number two Mayo...
Erica: Told you.
Bailey: Three Cleveland Clinic?
Derek: What?
Bailey: Four, Mass. Gen.
Izzie: What?

Bailey: No, we’re not five....
Scene 4
(Scene of Webber and George walking down hallway)
Webber: Twelve! Twelve! O’Malley!
George: So upsetting.
Webber: This is not a number twelve teaching hospital
George: No, it’s a great teaching hospital.
Webber: I do not run a number twelve surgical program in the country.
George: Sir .... sir.
Webber: Out with it O’Malley.
George: We’ve been downgraded to a level one trauma center to a level two. What is that even mean? You don’t even ... explaining, it’s just details. (George walks off before Webber can resume his rant)
Webber: Twelve!
Scene 5
Scene in intern locker room
George: Now I couldn’t ask him about when he was going to schedule my intern test with all the you know what hitting the fan. I mean, for all I know he’s gonna spring it like in what? An hour, two hours....
Lexie: And you’ll be ready. Causes of hypotension?
George: Hypervulimia, MI Cardiacdisrythmia.....uhhh.... hypoxia, is that good?
Lexie: (whispers closely behind George) Yeah very good.
George: (quickly turns to Lexie) What? Huh?
Lexie: The snow, it stopped raining. It’s like a fairytale.
George: Lexie, it’s, it’s the fall. It’s not so much a fairytale, it’s global warming. That’s the apocalypse, well that’s like dropping to number twelve and me failing my intern test for the second time.
George leaves the locker room.
Lexie: I adore you by the way.
Scene 6
Scene with Meredith and Cristina walking hallway with Cristina’s interns..
Lexie: Oh hey, sorry I’m late. I was just talking ...
Christina: No talking unless it’s medical.
Meredith: So, I keep having that dream, that Derek is dead dream.
Christina: Who does their residencies at number twelve hospitals? Losers. And I am not a loser. (to her interns) Get the charts.
Meredith: So, the dream is about me being afraid of the house of candles and you know taking the big step and I’m afraid of having a happy ending.
Christina: You know I have a Phd.. in bio-chem . I’m a double doctor. Double doctors should not do their residencies at second rate hospitals....
Meredith: Wyatt says I should just lean into the wind, into the fear. So, I’m just gonna ask Derek to move in with me.
Christina: A transfer. Cleveland Clinic has a huge cardio program
Meredith: We’re still in the top twenty that pretty good.
Christina: That’s not good enough. I wanna be great. Greatness Meredith.
Meredith: Greatness, which is why I’m gonna ask Derek to move in with me. It’s just that it’s.... ya know it’s a big step and I don’t want to mess it up again. I’ve messed it before, the breakups, and the on and off again and the sleeping with George, it just....
Lexie: You slept with George? (Cris and Mer both turn to look at Lexie simultaneously) No talking unless its medical.
Cris and Mer turn back and continue down hallway
Meredith: So I’m just gonna do it, I’m just gonna ask him to move in with me. It’s the right thing, right?
Christina: (beeper goes off and Cris leaves) Uh, Bailey’s paging.
Lexie: So, medically. Meredith and George had sexual intercourse?. Uh....When? How many times?
Christina turns to respond to Lexie but says nothing.... tempted to give her a slap upside the head ... can’t believe Lexie is going there. Cris walks away.
Scene 7
Scene Mark and Derek walking through reception area.
Mark : Humiliating. Twelve.
Derek: Yeah.
Mark : Twelve? You’re the best neurosurgeon in the country.... in the world.(a beat) Don’t you wanna say anything nice about me?
Derek: Ahhh.... you’re the best plastic’s guy at Seattle Grace.
Mark : Nice, really nice.
Derek: Don’t push me to praise you.(Rose walks up to counter replacing a chart) Hey Rose.
Nurse Rose: (ignoring Derek) Hello Dr. Sloan.
Mark: Hmmm ....
Derek: She took it so well in the beginning, I was hoping we could be civilized, ya know she’s working my OR
Mark : Civilize is out. It’s gone, it’s a trail of fairy dust. Now she’s got delayed rage.
Derek: Delayed rage?
Mark : She was being big before, putting on a brave face. Now she’s had time to think, now she hates your guts. You have to break up with her.
Derek: That’s the point, I did already.
Mark : Well you did personally, now you have to do it professionally. Good luck with that. (Mark walks away leaving Derek a bit confused)
Derek: Delayed rage?
Scene 8
Chief Webber stands at railing on the skywalk thinking.... pondering number twelve, Erica walks up
Erica: I’d like a list ...from you... of ways that I can improve.
Webber: Not right now.
Erica: Richard, you told me I’m a bad teacher. Now we’re number twelve and I don’t like to be number twelve, so I’d like a list.
Webber: Not right now. (Walking away from Erica)
Erica: But if there are ways I can improve, ways that I can help the program regain it’s ranking then...
Webber: It’s snowing. You know what happens when its nighttime and it’s snowing and the temperature is hovering right around thirty-two degrees.
Erica: No.
Webber: The snow begins to melt and then it freezes again, creating black ice, the deadliest kind of ice because it’s invisible to drivers. That would usually mean our ER would fill up but Mercy West is the number one level trauma center and we’re not. Which means their ER get the traumas while we get their castoffs, which pisses me off. So when I say “Not right now”what I mean is not right now.
(Webber walks off and Erica turns to see Callie....awkward moment.... avoiding each other, each turn to walk away)
Scene 9
Scene outside ER, Meredith, Bailey, Izzie and Alex appear to be waiting for incoming traumas)
Bailey: Stop shivering, you’re embarrassing me.
Izzie: I didn’t realize we were gonna be outside. (Alex grabs a blanket and wraps it around Izzie) Oh! I’m okay, you don’t have to do that.
Alex: Bundle up, you’re turning blue.
Meredith: Doctor Bailey, it is kinda cold out here
Alex: No one’s coming
Izzie: Maybe some old people with broken hips we can fix.
Bailey: Okay, stop talking. We are Seattle Grace Hospital and rankings or no rankings we are going to stand outside, at the ready on alert and give the best care available to every single patient that arrives at our door. We may no longer be ranked the best but I’m the best and you’re my residents which means you’re the best. It’s a matter of pride people. (Cristina joins the group)
Christina: What are we doing?
Izzie: We’re waiting.
Christina: For?
Meredith: A miracle.
Bailey: Someone will come.
Christina: Doctor Bailey, you know that Mercy West is getting all the traumas first.
Bailey: Someone will come.
Meredith: So we’re standing out here in the hopes that someone is severely injured, wishing and praying that someone is so hurt and so near death that the ambulance has to bring them to here because we’re closer rather than Mercy West.
Bailey: Yep.
Izzie: Wow, you and God are cool with that?
Bailey: Damn, I forgot about God. Alright let’s just go on back inside. (As they turn to go inside a car pulls up to ER, clearly out of control)
Bailey: Whoa, whoa.... whoa. Watch out!
( a woman in an evening gown get out of car, shaken and bleeding from the head)
Meredith: Are you okay?
Sarabeth: I drove the limousine on ice. All by myself, ten blocks.
(Izzie help another woman from the passenger side)
Izzie: You okay?
Betty: My dress, there’s blood all over my dress. What happened?
Sarabeth: What happened was I got us to the hospital in one piece.
Izzie: Please, please try not to move. Okay. Just sit right here until we can get you a wheelchair. We need a wheelchair over here.
Sarabeth: We’re not the patients, where.... what his name.....Billy ......
Bailey: Billy?
Sarabeth: The limo driver, he flew through the windshield.(inside another female passenger is holding limo driver)
Anna: Help him please.
Bailey: Yang, come around and help me. Get a board, bring out a gurney and a C-collar (Bailey and Cristina begin to help limo driver and there’s blood all around, Cristina applies pressure to spurting artery)
Bailey: Press it, press!
Scene 10
Scene inside ER Bailey wheeling gurney while holding pressure to stop the bleed
Webber: What do we have?
Bailey: Billy Matthews, 45, arterial bleed, haven't isolated the cause.

Bailey: Okay, but I'm holding pressure over the bleed. I just need
Webber: I got this.
Bailey: I just need—chief…
Scene 11
Scene in ER, Meredith and Izzie are treating Sarabeth, Anna and Betty’s injuries
Betty: What’s going on? Vincent will worry if I'm late.
Izzie: You've been in a car accident. You're at the hospital, but we're gonna take really good care of you.
Sarabeth: Is she okay?
Izzie: Might be a concussion. I'm gonna go order a C.T. And make sure it's nothing more than that.
Anna: All this blood ... we should've waited for the ambulance.
Sarabeth: We did wait. We waited, they never came. And Billy was just hanging there through the windshield.
Callie: Wait, you guys extracted your limo driver from the windshield by yourselves? Wow, that's pretty heroic.
Anna: Isn't Michael answering?
Sarabeth: No. Try Phil again. We shouldn't have even been going to the stupid ball in a storm like that.
George: What ball?
Sarabeth: The Fire and Ice ball—would you believe, in an ice storm?
Anna: Just goes to voice mail. Maybe--maybe their phones are off?
Betty: You can't reach Vincent?
Meredith: Your husbands were in another car?
Sarabeth: We won't ride with them. We're three of the most happily married women ever except when our husbands drag out their cigars, and they drag out their cigars in the limo.
Callie: Well, your arm is not broken, just bruised. So O’Malley here is gonna suture up your cuts, and then you're all set. You ladies are lucky you didn't sustain more serious injuries.
Sarabeth: What kind of doctor are you? You're young.
George: Oh, I'm an intern.
Sarabeth: Interns don't touch the face. The plastic surgeon touches the face.
Betty: What's happening? Where am I?
Anna: We were in an accident. You're okay. We're all gonna be fine.
Anna and Sarabeth both look at Betty concerned, Izzie and Meredith both notice Betty may have issues
Scene in hallway Erica and Callie meet......awkwardness abounds
Erica: Hi.
Callie: Hi.
Erica: I've been really busy.
Callie: No, no, I know. I've been, like, crazy busy. Researching things, a lot of research, in the library. Erica: Oh, yeah, me, too. Incredibly busy. A lot of research, uh, like you, only I use the internet.
Callie: Well, I gotta check in with Bailey, so…
Erica: Me, too.
Both approach Bailey who is sitting at desk.... charting
Callie: Bailey, anything else?
Bailey: Nothing. Nothing else. That's the problem. I'm charting. The chief took my one trauma. I gave up my clinic, and now I'm charting.
The chief wanted you to take a look at these. Billy Matthews. He's the limo driver. Multiple crush injuries from an M.V.C.
Erica: Hemopericardium. (a beat) Hemopericardium can lead to cardiac tamponade, which can be detected by beck's triad--increased J.V.P., Hypotension and muffled heart sounds. This is a teaching hospital. I'm trying to improve my teaching.
Bailey: Well, don't try it on me.
Mark: Want to know how I teach?
Erica: No.
Mark: I'm like a guru—they come to me for help, and I gently guide them along the path to truth and wisdom.
Scene 12
Scene Hallway, George walking and Lexie runs to catch up with him
Lexie: Hey,George.
George: Hi.

George: Yeah?
Lexie: A surprising thing, a very unexpected, non-medical thing about you and—
George: Oh, hold on. Uh, Dr. Sloan, hi. Sarabeth Briar has got a facial lac but she will only let you touch her.
Mark: You paged me for a cut? What kind of moron are you, O’Malley? Are you a special moron from the isle of complete and utter morons?
George: I don't think so.
Mark: Shut up. (winks at Erica and walks away) Truth and wisdom.
Lexie: He’s an ass.
Scene 13
Meredith walks up to Cristina who is at counter writing in chart
Cristina: You know what? This is what we get for being number 12-- a bunch of women in ball gowns and half-dead limo driver.
Meredith: Those women are amazing. They tried to save his life. That's who I want to be, you know? Cristina: An aging princess?
Meredith: They've been with the same men for years, and they're happy. They did it. I can do it.
Cristina: Mer, I…
Derek: Hey. Who paged me?
Derek and Meredith walk away leaving Cristina thinking what the heck.....we we’re talking
Meredith: Bailey and Izzie paged you, but you should see Bailey first because she's got the limo driver.
Derek: Okay.
Derek: Do you want to move in with me?
Derek: You want to live together?
Meredith: Well, I mean I could-- I just, uh.
Derek: Yes.
Meredith: If—if you don't want to, I.....Yes?
Derek: Absolutely. You sure you're ready?
Meredith: I am leaning into the fear to get a happy ending.
Derek: I don't even know what that means.
Derek and Meredith get to ER exam room where Webber is calling time of death on limo driver.

Bailey: Right now dispatch is squawking about three men-- three serious injuries...Every one, they're taking 'em to Mercy West.
Cristina: Three men?
Bailey: That's what I said.
Cristina: You mean like three men who could be married to those ladies in the ball gowns?
Bailey looks up at Cristina realizing she is on to something.
Scene 15
Mark treating Sarabeth in ER
Mark: Little stick.
Anna: Squeeze my hand. Squeeze my hand. Just like when you had Petey, you remember?
Sarabeth: Pete hurt less.
Mark: Yeah, but you're going to love me later when there's virtually no scar.
Bailey: Ladies, um, I've been on the phone with uh, ambulance dispatch. Three gentlemen in a limousine collided with another vehicle on Broad Street. It's possible it was your husbands.
Anna: Oh, no.
Cristina: They're taking them to Mercy West…
Bailey: Which is across town.
Cristina: Unless .... you prefer that they be brought here.
Sarabeth: We can do that?
Bailey: Oh, you can insist.
Cristina: And, if I were you, I would insist.
Anna: Oh, well, then I guess.... I guess we insist.
Sarabeth: Yes, we insist.
Bailey: You insist. (Mark smirks at Bailey)
Scene 16
Chief Webber going out ER doors to meet an incoming trauma
Webber: Am I to understand that you stole these traumas from Mercy West?
Bailey: I have no idea what you're talking about.

Webber: Grey, can you handle this woman, please?

Alex: Might not be so bad. Like hitting the refresh button, everything is new again.
Izzie: How you doing?
Alex: You keep asking me that, and I keep telling you, I'm fine.
Izzie: I know, it's just.. sometimes I still think Denny's gonna be right around the corner, and he's been dead a long time now. It just takes a while to get used to.
Alex: Rebecca didn't die. It's not like that for me. I'm good. But thank you for asking.

McDreamland Vs Reality
Posted by jenlou1986 (.Grey Girls.) at Feb 25 2009, 02:35 AM. 22 comments
5.01 ~ 5.02 – Dream a Little Dream of Me
Meredith: [voice over] We all remember the bedtime stories of our childhoods. The shoe fits Cinderella, the frog turns into a prince, Sleeping Beauty is awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time, and then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales, the stuff of dreams. The problem is, fairy tales don't come true. It's the other stories, the ones that begin with 'dark and stormy nights' and end in the unspeakable. It's the nightmares that always seem to become reality. The person who invented the phrase 'happily ever after' should have his a.ss kicked so hard!
Meredith: [voice over] Once upon a time, happily ever after. The stories we tell are the stuff of dreams. Fairy tales don't come true. Reality is much stormier. Much murkier. Much scarier. Reality. It's so much more interesting than living happily ever after.
