Baileys dream domino surgery looks like its finally going to happen, but of course everything goes wrong. Derek gets all the credit for his and Merediths surgery success, and after getting together with Hahn, Callie doesnt know if shes cut out for it. Izzie refuses to let Alex off the hook, insisting that she cares for him and knows he does too, and George gets his first interns. Derek gives Meredith a kidney as a 'I'm sorry' gift. The domino surgery is a success.
Meredith: (VO) The thing about choosing teams in real life, it's nothing like it used to be in gym class. Being first picked can be terrifying. And being chosen last isn't the worst thing in the world. So we watch from the sidelines clinging to our isolation. Because we know as soon as we let go of the bench ... someone comes along and changes the game completely.
~*~*~
Meredith: (VO) I am a rock. I am an island. That's the mantra of pretty much every surgeon I've ever met. We like to think we're independent, loners, mavericks. That all we need to do our jobs is an OR, a scalpel, and a willing body. But the truth is not even the best of us can do it alone. Surgery like life is a team sport. And eventually, you've got to get off the bench and decide... what team are you batting for?
~*~*~
Meredith: If Derek needed a kidney, I wouldnt give him one. Hed take the credit. Hed say he magically regrew it himself.
Meredith: I mean not whatever, he's right I did drop a kidney, and don't say it happens because it doesn't. But, I do hate it when he's right.
Cristina: No, okay, he is not right. Stop caring so much about what he thinks. It makes you seem desperate.
~*~*~
Chief: What are you people doing?
Izzie: We were just, uh, just deciding which of our interns to give to George.
Cristina: Uh huh.
Miranda: Oh, you think I got to choose my interns? And I picked you people... 'cause you're all such a surgical dream team? (to Alex) You, you're lazy. (to Izzie) You're whiney. (to Meredith) Butter fingers over there... downright depressing. (to Cristina) You, Yang, you're just annoying. Choosing their own interns! What are ...
Chief: Give me those damn cards. [picks out four, hands cards to George] O'Malley, you have interns.
~*~*~
Lexie: (to George) Did you even ask for me? I helped decorate your stupid locker and you don't even see it! You don't see anything! I am such an idiot. And you are a jerk. You didn't even ASK for me? Screw you, Dr. O'Malley.
~*~*~
Sloan: Do you think they airbrushed this picture? The man does not have one damn pore!
~*~*~
Chief: All eyes... are on Seattle Grace.
~*~*~
Joe: Holy crap what the hell is that thing?
Cristina: Oh that is a kidney in a jar, that's not fair, how did you get that?
Derek: Being an incredibly important fancy neurosurgeon has it's perks.
Meredith: Thank you.
Derek: I couldn't have done it without you. One surgery, one patient, I couldn't have done any of it without you. Thanks.
~*~*~
Izzie: I care about you, and I'm not gonna go crazy, and I'm not gonna try to kill myself and I'm not gonna stop caring about you no matter how hard you push me away.
Alex: Shut up and get outta my room.
Izzie: And I know you care about me too and it's not too late for us.
Alex: Get outta my room.
Izzie: Admit it. I know you care about me too I know you do. I care about you. I care about you. I care about you. I care about you. I care about you! I- (they kiss)
Derek finds Merediths mothers journals, Callie tells Bailey about Hahn asking her out on an official date, the Chief reminds junior residents that they should not specialize, therefore they should stop asking for specific cases, Cristina shows the magical world of dermatology to Meredith and Izzie, and Alex finally admits that hes taking his frustration out on Izzie because he cant be mad at some crazy chick for being crazy.
George helps alleviate the fears of a little boy and his heart surgery by talking the Chief into letting the 8-year-old watch how the surgery works. Unfortunately, they walk into the wrong surgery, and the kid sees Izzies brain tumor patient, whose face has been completely peeled back. Kid: "Does that guy have no face?" George quickly picks him up and rushes him out of the room as the boy shouts, "I want to see the guy with no face!"
Meredith gives Derek permission to use her moms den as his own, and George finally passes his exam.
Meredith: (VO) We like to think we're fearless, eager to explore unknown lands and soak up new experiences, but the fact is, we're always terrified. Maybe the terror is part of the attraction. Some people go to horror movies. We cut things open. Dive into dark water. And at the end of the day, isn't that what you'd rather to hear about? If you've got one drink and one friend and 45 minutes. Slow rides make for boring stories. A little calamity. Now that's worth talking about.
~*~*~
Meredith: (VO) In 6500 BC, some guy looked at his friend and said, let's drill a hole in your head... that will make you feel better. And thus surgery was born. It takes a certain brand of crazy to think of drilling into someone's skull, but surgeons have always been a confident bunch. We don't always know what we're doing, but we act like we do. We walk into a country, plant a flag and start ordering people around. It's invigorating and terrifying.
~*~*~
Meredith: You keep a diary? Have I not known all this time that you keep a diary? Don't be shy, I think it's cute!
Derek: It's not mine.
Meredith: Who's is it?
Derek: Your mother's.
~*~*~
Meredith: I told Hahn I knew how to do a coronary reanastomosis.
Cristina: Okay, you know what? Um, snag me some of those grapes over there and I'll teach you.
~*~*~
Hahn: (to Meredith) You can tell Dr. Yang she's a better teacher than I would have thought. You lie to me about your experience again and the next heart you'll see will be your own as I cut it out of your chest with a steak knife.
~*~*~
Bailey: I don't talk about sex.
Callie: Please. Let's just pretend I never said a single word.
Bailey: I don't talk about sex with anyone, ever. Any kind of sex.
Callie: Bailey I am begging you...
Bailey: Shhhhhh!!
~*~*~
Bailey: In Ethiopia, they eat stew of spongy, sour bread. That's not for everyone!
~*~*~
Cristina: (on Dermatology) This magical world where doctors are happy and patients are pleasant and no one is screaming or stealing surgeries. Everyone just rubs each other all day long. They don't want to cut anyone open -- they just love lotion.
~*~*~
Izzie: (to Alex) Using me as a doormat is one thing. Screwing with my career is another.
~*~*~
Izzie: People are terrible to the people they love sometimes. They're mean. You were both having a hard time and you took it out on each other. It doesn't make you the worst wife in the world. It just makes you a person who made a mistake.
~*~*~
Izzie: Dr. Shepherd, I want back on this case. Alex stole him from me. Remember when I was telling you that-
Derek: Dr. Stevens let's be clear. In this hospital, I am not your roommate, I don't give a crap about your personal problems. I have a resident, I don't need another one.
~*~*~
Derek: I'd like to buy these two a drink.
Izzie: You are the best roommate ever!
Derek: I am. Just to be clear, if you two ever pull any of that crap with one of my cases again, I will have you thrown out of the program.
Recently, the cast of House got together to talk about the show at The Paley Center in Beverly Hills. "starshineamator" was nice enough to post a few clips for those of us who couldn't be there in person.
The man who just recently played the mysterious Jacob on Lost is now heading on over to join the cast of Supernatural, where he will be playing none other than Lucifer himself. I was wondering if they'd be casting someone as him. Looks like it's going to be anther intense season
You probably know him best as the Heeeeeers Johnny! guy who ushered in Johnny Carson all those years. Sadly, the Tonight Show sidekick died early Tuesday at the age of 86. He will be greatly missed.
Good, bad, or indifferent, TV dads have certainly evolved over the years. From the more innocent days of the Andy Griffith and Dick Van Dyke shows, to todays Homer Simpson and Tony Soprano, dads have graced our silver screen, braving the world in all their wonderful protective, heroic, bumbling, man-child greatness. Todays TV dad is far from perfect. Theyre beautifully flawed, and thats why we love them
Thanks Wilson! After maybe a week or two, I'll combine all the most voted for fathers for round two. We'll keep narrowing it down to see who is the favorite TV dad of all time!
