Charles: So April missed the airway, huh? That's so stupid.
Lexie: Airway first.
Jackson: It's like med school 101, right?
Alex: It's pretty basic.
Reed: It was one second! She got distracted for one second and she made a mistake.
Charles: That we all nearly got fired for.
Jackson: Nose dive's got a point.
Charles: Thank you. ... What?!
Alex: We nearly got fired for trying to fix what she screwed up in the first place.
Cristina: Yeah, 'cause that's our job. (to Lexie) What you didn't make any mistakes today? (to Alex) You've been distracted for the entire week. (to Jackson) And who knows what you screwed up. But our patients didn't die and that's why we didn't get caught. It could've happened to any one of us.
Arizona: You left him alone? What were you thinking?!
Lexie: I'm-- I'm sorry, I- I feel like--
Arizona: No, you don't get to feel anything! Because he's feeling everything, his every nerve is exposed and raw and we have to make him feel worse before he's gonna feel better. So, if you're having feelings, then you need to shut them down. You need to shut them down and talk to him about his future and remind him that he has one, past all of this pain. And if you can't do that, if you can't do your job, then you find someone who can and you send them to me.
Alex: I never even seen that patient. I was stitching up nose dive.
Richard: Nose dive?
Alex: What's his name? The dude th--that fainted?
HR Woman: Dr. Percy.
Jennings (laughs): Nose dive. That's gonna stick.
Jackson: These Seattle Grace people are kinda douchey.
Charles: Shh. (nods over to Alex) Case and point.
Jackson: Douche.
Bailey (about Charles): He fainted.
Richard: He fainted?
Bailey: He fainted.
Jennings: From what?
Bailey: He better have a brain tumor or somethin' 'cause that's just unacceptable.
Reed: They hate us, April. It doesn't matter how good we are, we're gonna fail. Because they were here first and they rule the school, and they hate us.
April: I'm not gonna let them turn me into someone they hate, I'm easy to like.
Reed: Actually, it takes a while. I hated you at first.
Cristina: I'm not goin' down for this.
Owen: Someone is.
Alex: How long is this gonna take?
Jackson: Why you need to make a phone call?
Cristina: I'm putting myself in a time out before I kill someone.
Meredith: Have you seen Bailey? She was supposed to sign my discharge papers after her appy?
Cristina: Oh, good, go home, get better and then come back, 'cause I need you.
Meredith: Are the Mercy West people that bad?
Cristina: They're everywhere and there are more of them than us, and they're kicking our asses. God, I miss Izzie. We need more 'uses', so get back here.
Meredith: I have to be discharged first. You want to forge Bailey's signature?
Cristina: No, that'll get me fired. Ooh, ask one of the new ones to do it. Get them fired.
Meredith (closing voiceover): When we're heading towards an outcome that's too horrible to face, that's when we go looking for a second opinion. Sometimes, the answer we get just confirms our worst fears but sometimes, it can shed new light on the problem. Make you see it in a whole new way. After all the opinions have been heard and every point of view has been considered, you finally find what you were after, the truth. But the truth isn't where it ends , that's just where you begin again with a whole new set of questions.
Meredith (opening voiceover): In order to get a good diagnosis, doctors have to constantly change their perspective. We start by getting the patients point of view, though they don't often have a clue what's going on. So we look at the patient from every possible angle. We rule things out. We uncover new information trying to get to what's actually wrong. We're asking for second opinions hoping we'll see something others might have missed. For the patient, a fresh perspective can mean the difference between living and dying. For the doctor, it can mean your picking a fight with everyone who got there before you.
Derek: It's not the doctors, Richard. They're all good doctors.
Richard: I know that. Who do you think this was for? For Jennings it was about legal. But this was for me. I needed to know who was finally was responsible. At least I was about to do that. (Derek sighs) Say it, Derek.
Derek: Maybe it's not one doctor. Maybe it's too many doctors who don't know each other and who don't trust each other. When I got to that room, it was chaos, because that's the system now, chaos. That has been the system that has been in place since this merger. Your system. I'm saying you should look again at who's responsible.
Jackson (to Cristina): How long do I have to work here before they insert a bug up my ass? You guys are all so cranky.
