This episode was one of my favorite episodes of the season. The story line and the way that the whole thing flowed was awesome. I really enjoyed the chemistry that this episode showed between the characters. George joined the ARMY, seriously! I really enjoyed the way Callie and almost the rest of the crew decided to set up an intervention for him. It was awesome. This episode was also emotional, because it showed a different side to some of the characters that I hadn't seen before.
This episode also upset me because I really like the characters George and Izzy. George going in the ARMY must mean that he's leaving the show. And what about Izzy? She has a brain tumor, are the producers really going to kill her off???moreless

Quotes
ADD QUOTES- Bailey: You okay? Callie (depressed): I cut off a healthy leg. I just cut it off. It was for the patients own good, but still, I feel like a butcher. Dr. Swender: My miracle case is on life support. I thought I had one. One miracle. I hate this job sometimes. Callie: I don't know why we do this. Bailey: Come on, come with me. (they follow her) Callie: Okay, what are we doing here? Bailey: We came to see that (they look at Arizona's patient that got better) Dr. Swender: What? Bailey: The joy. It comes around rarely, so rarely we forget it can happen. But that, that's why we do this. The joy. Edit
- Cristina (to Owen): God, it doesn't matter how good you are. Or how hard you work. You can do all the research, you can master all the latest techniques, I mean you can be the best. You can be the best surgeon in the world, but your patients are still gonna die. 'Cause the next day, or the next month, or the next year, you know they're just gonna get hit by a car. Or find a mole on their back. There's nothing you can do about it. (looks at Owen) I don't want you to die. Edit
- Meredith (teary eyed): I always thought it would be me. I'd get Alzheimer's like my mother and forget everyone. Lets go to city hall tomorrow. I don't wanna spend another day not being married to you. Derek: Okay. Edit

Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS- Alex (to Izzie): When Denny signed that DNR, you went crazy. Is that what you want? You want me cutting LVADs? Alex is referring to the season 2 episode 17 Seconds, in which at the end of the episode, Izzie cuts Denny's LVAD wires. Edit
-
George (to Izzie): You're a doer, remember?
This refers back to a conversation they had in the season 2 episode It's the End of The World. Convo from It's the End of The World: Izzie: We're watchers. We have to become more proactive, George. We have to become doers. George: Fight for what we want. Izzie: We have to do. Edit - Chief: You know, Doctor Chalikonda at Cleveland Clinic is doing single incision gallbladder removal through the belly button? Dr. Sricharan Chalikonda is in fact, a general surgeon at Cleveland Clinic who has done this procedure in real life. Edit
