"I needed more time."

I can't tell you how often
I've heard surgeons say this

after losing a patient.

Not me.

Oh, damn it.

They're moving Suzanne
to the CCU.

She's spiking fevers again.
She's got chest pain.

It just
doesn't make any sense.

I know. I just hope
Dr. Riley can help.

Who's that?

You know, the -- the doctor
from San Francisco I'm bringing.

I didn't tell you?

No, but we didn't do
much talking last night.

She's supposed to be
this diagnostic genius,

and I might have used your name
to lure her here.

Ooh, resourceful.

Look, at some point, we probably
should talk about this.

We will, but you should go
save Suzanne's life first.

We think in time,
we talk in time --

Doses per day.
Life expectancy.

Take two
and call me in the morning.

Good morning.
Is it?

Aww.

Mwah.
Mwah.

Okay, come on,
come back to bed with me.

No, I wish.

I have to go check up
on that foster kid you
brought in last night.

Joey, yeah.
How's he doing?

That's what
I need to find out.

He doesn't even know

that his brothers and sister
were taken away.

Who has to tell him?

You're looking at her.

I'm sorry.
No,
I'm sorry.

You asked me to try
to keep them together.

Miranda, we both know that
even the chief of surgery

has no power over
Social Services.

Mwah.

Keep me posted.
I will.

I love you.

Don't sleep all day.

You always tell me
not to let you sleep all day,

and then
you sleep all day.
Mm-hmm.

And what is a heartbeat
if not a ticking clock?

I'm gonna sleep all day.

A clock
that's always counting down.
Whoa!

Hey,
I'm sorry I'm late.

Kids were sick again.

Um...what's going on?

Pac-North's been purchased.

By the Fox Foundation.

That's --

What, really?

How? Why?

Well, you see, Catherine and I
got into a fight, and now...

And...?

And now we have to
report to Grey-Sloan

and interview
to keep our jobs.

An interview with --

Don't say Tom Koracick.

Tom Koracick.
Ah...

Richard,
how big was this fight?

It was pretty big.

Does Karev know?

Eh, well, he's dealing with
family issues in Iowa.

I call him and tell him
the place was gonna close,

and he texts me

a "laugh until you cry" emoji
with a party hat.

Hey, guys,
happy first day!

What?

Ooh, I'm nervous!

Like it's the first day
of school or something.

Wish I had one more day
in your bed.

But I guess you don't.

Aren't you getting sick
of staying at my place?

I mean, there's no room
to put your stuff.

But, like,
we could find room.

No, yeah,
hypothetically,

but we're not at
the cohabitating step, right?

Thank you.
Right.

I mean, look,
you'll love your own place.

You just gotta,
you know, find one.

Dr. Dees --
Dr. Dillon Dees to ICU.

Lads, say hello
to Dr. Grey, please.

Hey.

Hi.
Nice to meet you.

There was a time
when they loved having a tour

of whatever hospital it was
I was working in.

Now they just want to know
where the cafeteria is.

Is there
no school today?

Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Come on,
come on, come on.

Put it back.

Did I see
a certain chief resident

leave the house
this morning?

Did you?

that's interesting.

So you're back together?

I don't know.
Why are you so interested?

Hmm, I'm anxious,
and I deflect when I'm anxious.

Also I'm looking for examples
of love enduring hardships.

Well, I wouldn't go
that far yet.

But the sex is great.

Does that count?

Doesn't hurt.

Don't worry,
Link's not with me.

Why would I be --

I know that you're getting the
paternity results back today,

and I know
that you've been avoiding him

ever since he said
that he wanted the test,

and I know that you're not
happy about it, either,

but Link may look like
a department store mannequin,

but he is actually human,
and he gets to have feelings.

He gets to be mad.
He gets to have doubts.

He gets to be upset
that he got taken for a ride.

It was not my intention
to take --

Your intention
doesn't really matter here.

What matters is
the reality of the situation,

and when two people
love each other,

they just need to be given
all of the information

so that they can process it
and rise.

Because if given the chance,
they will rise.

Are you
going through something?

Alex, uh,
hasn't been returning my calls.

He says that
he's going through something,

and he needs time,
and if I didn't know better,

I would think
he was getting revenge

for when
I needed time.

But, um, I know he would
never do that, so...

I'm sorry.
I'm anxious, and I --

Deflect when
you're anxious.

Me too.

Link loves you.

Stop avoiding him.

So, who are you
bringing back?

Don't act like
you haven't decided.

It's not an act,
it's a managerial nightmare.

I promise, I'll let you know
as soon as I've made a decision.

What decision?

Foundation's absorbing Pac-North
and its employees.

Yep.

In that event, uh, I'd like to
make some recommendations.

About the people
you impulsively fired

to set in motion a chain
of events I'm still
trying to clear up?

No, thank you, I'll conduct
the interviews myself,

and make my decisions.

And here I thought
you and I were making friends.

You did?
That's so nice to hear.

Causes of undulant fever
include brucellosis,

babesiosis, typhoid,
leptospirosis...

Slow down,
dude.

Oh, good Lord, people.

Just because you're injured
doesn't mean you can't shower.

Dr. DeLuca said
we could only eat and sleep.

Hey, what you got?

Blood cultures and ELISA came
back negative for all of that,

and her lymph node biopsy's
clear as well.

Which means no lymphoma.

Right.

Isn't no lymphoma
a good thing?

I don't want
to walk back there

and tell them
that I have nothing.

Well, then, figure it out,
and you won't have to.

Burn!

Be part of
the solution, Helm.

And, Simms,
take a shower.

Matty's 13!

I should have years before
she's in the kissing stage.

What about Scott Thompson?
Well,
that was different.

He gave me
a Styx record.

Well, maybe Taylor
gave Matty something.

Wait --
Matty kissed Taylor?
Yeah.

Taylor Olson?
Yeah.

Good morning, Hadley.

Suzanne,
how are you feeling?

She's been
digging up dirt on you.

It's called research.

I didn't exactly have to do
a lot of digging.

Hospital Hell.

Did you see
that article?

That piece was intended
to highlight weaknesses

within the entire
health care system,

and the surgeon
who wrote it

actually recently
came back to work here.

You're --
You're not gonna find better,

more competent care
in the whole Northwest.

Um...

Can I help you?

Excuse me?

- I'm Dr. Lauren Riley.
- Right.

I'm here for a consult
with Dr. Meredith Grey.

It's nice to meet you,
Ms. Britland.

Suzanne.

And you are --

She is our
master diagnostician.
Oh, thank God.

I'm going to ask
about a billion questions

and run even more tests.

I will annoy you greatly,

but in the end,
it will be worth it, okay?

I like you already.

I want a full autoimmune panel,

a pericardial fluid culture,
and a cytology.

Immediately!

We -- We already
did those.

Do them again.

And page cardio.

I need to know
why the fluid is building up,

because it will happen again.

And can you tell Dr. Grey
I'm here already?

Wow.

The competence is just slapping
me in the face right now.

Okay.

Dr. Picado, 4622.

Dr. London Picado,
extension 4622.

Okay, folks.

A-As you can see, I've got
a lot of interviewing to do.

I'll be as efficient
as possible,

but thank you
for your patience.

Chief Karev is on
personal leave,

so I've been acting
as interim and --

Cool story, bro.

Okay, then, first up,
Dr. Webber. Yeah.

You'll be happy to hear, uh,
Dr. Fox was, uh, very clear.

Your job is safe.

What's that
supposed to mean?

Your wife wants you here
at Grey-Sloan, big guy.

She wants you here enough
to buy a craptastic hospital

and pretend it's
an investment.

No.

No?

No,
I thought I could do this,

because I miss Grey-Sloan,
because I miss Bailey

and -- and Meredith,
and -- and Bokhee and OR 2.

God,
how I miss OR 2.

But if Catherine thinks she can
just move me where she wants

like she's playing chess
and I'm some pawn --

You're not a pawn.

A rook at least.
Maybe a knight.

You tell Dr. Fox
she can go to hell.

Look,
I -- I take it back.

You are her queen!

Well, checkmate!

You don't look old enough
to be a doctor.

Well, I don't always feel
old enough to be a doctor, so...

When did
the pain start?

Well, I first
heard her gasp

about 20 minutes
out of Tacoma.

We came here to attend

the Seattle
Ballroom Championship.

We won first place five years
in a row back in our prime.

Can I check
your abdomen?

Sure.

You should probably know
she has cancer.

Stage IV colorectal.

Didn't respond to chemo...

So we're living
our best life.
Mm.

Wow, okay, Irene,

I think you may have
an intestinal obstruction.

I'm going to admit you.

I'll have to get a CT
and a few tests.

Do you think
we'll be out in time

to go
to the waltz showcase?

We'll cut the line
if we have to.

My success rates
far outnumber

both national
and international averages.

And, um, if you weigh
my outcomes against

only the top programs
in the country,

you'll find
that I still outperform --

Um...
Are you gonna get that?

I'm sure it can wait.
As I was saying --

I'm sorry, I'm being --
I'm being paged.

I don't understand.

Catherine had me re-instate
your privileges last night.

But I had to bring you in here
to, uh, kill some time

so folks out there
wouldn't feel

you were being shown
favoritism.

Which you most certainly are.

Well,
thank you so much.

Don't thank me,
thank Altman.

She was gracious enough

to allow you back
into her department.

It's my department.

It was,
then you ghosted us.

Dr. Altman has had
years of experience

running cardio floors.

So, she's home
with two sick kids today,

so, uh, just make sure you
keep her posted on your service.

Okay.

Yeah.

And, uh, don't keep
your patient waiting.

Yeah.

Where are they?

I told you,
I don't know,

but I need you to stay still
while I finish this exam.

Joey?
Hi, I'm Dr. Bailey.

I was here last night
when you came in.

Do you know where
my brothers and sister are?

I --

Um, are you
almost finished here, Dr. Kim?

Pulse is weaker.

We're gonna need
a CT angio

and another chest X-ray,
please.

Right away, Doctor.

Where are they?
Are they okay?

Tell me, please!
Joey --

Joey,
your siblings were here

when you came in
last night.

Um...

They waited as long
as they could, but...

You reported them.
I'm sorry.

I'm legally obligated
when the kids --

To what?

Tear apart
the only family I have?

They're with
social workers.

You broke them up?
They aren't even together?

I honestly don't know,
but, no, they're safe.

Right, 'cause everyone knows
the foster system is so safe.

Uh, Dr. Kim has ordered
some more tests,

so let's
get those done.

In the meantime,
I will call Social Services

and find out
what I can, okay?

Suzanne,
try to keep still for me, okay?

Okay.

So, you lost 25 pounds
two years ago?

Were you dieting?

I had a 6-year-old
and an 11-year-old

who were maniacs
and never let me sit down.

Is that a diet?

And you never
gained the weight back?

No, and I was more than happy
to throw out the mom jeans.

Dr. Pierce,
what do you see?

That's not a good face.

There's too much fluid.

I need to do
a pericardial window.

Okay,
I need the dummy words.

It is a procedure in which
I make a small hole

in the membrane
around your heart

to prevent fluid
from accumulating.

This is ridiculous.

Suzanne, they want
to cut into you again?

If we're starting over,
then we might as well
do it someplace else.

We are not starting over.

Yes, we are.

I approach my patients

as if I'm meeting them on their
first day in the hospital.

You'd be amazed at what can
slip through the cracks.

They don't even agree
on what they're doing.

I'm too tired to move,
anyway.

Plus, my kids really like the
mac and cheese in the cafeteria.

This isn't funny.
Hadley,
they're trying.

Let them.

Thank you.
We'll be back to prep you soon.

Dr. Clark to the ICU.

Dr. Annabelle Clark
to the ICU.

Where is Dr. Grey?

Uh, she's in surgery
right now.

She's right there.

I'll go book an OR.

Dr. Grey?

Dr. Lauren Riley.

It's good
to finally meet you.

Oh, my consult
from UCLA.

Suzanne Britland
isn't your patient, is she?

I have consulted
on her case.

Um,
and I'm at a loss.

And I've heard
great things about you.

It was great
to meet you.

If you'll excuse me,
I'm being paged.

You lied to me.

I prefer
the word "lured."

I prefer
the word "leaving."

Okay, uh,
Dr. Riley, look, please,

i-if you leave now
without cracking this case,

it's gonna
drive you crazy.

It'll keep you up
at night.

It's too rare,
we're too lost,

and you're too good
to just walk away.

Okay.

Uh...You.
What's your job?

Mabel Tseng.
Second year resident.

That's great.
Uh, uh, come on in.

Tom, a word.

Please, um, patience, Hunt.
Just, uh, patience.

Yeah, um, listen, it's just,
you know,

you've interviewed
all the attendings but me,

and now you're interviewing
the residents.

And it just
seems a little bit like

it's some kind of
a game, Tom.

Don't worry,
I'll have you out of here

in time
for your wedding.

When is it, again?

I -- I -- I can't --

Uh, Dr. Tseng,
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

-Yeah. Right this way.
-Thanks.

Yeah. There we go.

Dr. Willem --
Dr. Harrison Willem...

Hi.

Are you lost?

Do you know
how to get to the exit?

The nurse said
I could get some fresh air.

Which nurse?

Nurse Jones?

Good guess.

I would've gone with that
or Smith.

Let's go.
What?

No. Where?
Back to your room.

Your unbandaged wounds
gave you away.

So you don't need
to worry.

They said
it wouldn't take long.

That's right, we'll have your
mom out in less than an hour.

Where's Hadley?

She and Mei Li
went to go get Grandma.

She had too much wine
at the sports bar again.

Sweetie, I think that maybe
you and I should talk about

what happened
on the field trip,

with you and Taylor.

Hadley told you?!
She swore she wouldn't.

Honey, why would you want
to talk to Aunt Hadley about it

and not me?

The principal only told her
because you weren't there.

I don't want
to talk to anyone!

Matty, wait!

She only
started doing that

when she realized I couldn't
physically follow her.

Never have children.

Hey.

Well,
I'm happy you called.

The, uh...

Are the results back?

No.
Uh, no, not yet.

Um, tonight.

I'm...anxious.

Got it.

What's gonna happen?

We meet back here
at 7:00,

we look
at a piece of paper

that spells out
the baby's biological paternity.

What's gonna happen then?

I don't know.

Okay.

But, um,
could you try to know?

What happens with us

if we find out
that it's Owen's?

You said
that you loved me.

Was that true?

Do you want
to be with me, Link?

Do you want to be
in this baby's life?

You and Owen
have a complicated history.

I mean, you left him
when you found out

that Teddy was pregnant
with his baby

because you knew how much
it would matter to him.

So it's crazy to me
to think that

that history
won't shape your future

if Owen's the father.

And my future.

I love you, Amelia.

I do.
And I...

I need to know.

Okay.

You hear that?

That's your blood flow.
That's good.

That's bad.

If you leave here now,

best-case scenario,
we amputate your arm.

Worst-case scenario,
you die.

Karev?

I caught him
trying to leave,

thought I would tell him
what would happen if he did.

Joey,
I spoke to Social Services,

and they told me
they do everything they can

to keep siblings together,
so --

But we aren't related.

So, no, they won't.

We were all
in a foster home together,

and -- and things got real bad,
so we ran away.

I made a promise
that we would never split up.

I know you don't get it,
but I have to go.

I lived in 12 foster homes
in 5 years.

For a few months,

I had these foster siblings
that I really loved.

When we got separated,
we came up with a system.

On Wednesday nights
at 7:00,

I would call
their foster home,

let the phone ring once,
and then hang up.

On Mondays,
they would do the same for me.

And then
I got moved again, so...

Joey,
I do understand.

They're little.

And they're scared.

And we were never
supposed to be separated.

They're my family.
I know.

But you can't help them
if you're dead, right?

Oh, I guess Koracick gave
at least one person a job.

As not chief
of my department.

How's Richard doing?

Not great.
How's Catherine?

Mourning in
her typical way --

traveling and buying
a bunch of extravagant stuff.

When we broke up,

I went online
and bought a pair of jeans.

Catherine went to Paris
and bought a hospital.

Do you think
there's any saving them?

I really don't know.

I hope so.

Dr. Grey?

You haven't seen my boys
by any chance, have you?

Um, no.

Are they hiding,
or just maybe wandering?

They're just trying
to torture me

and make sure we're late
for the conference, you know?

Sometimes I think
I hate them.

No, I mean,
I don't, obviously.

Maybe I do.

Oh, I don't know
how you do it --

the kids, the job,
stay sane.

Who says I'm sane?

The city
shut off my water once

because I forgot
to pay the bill,

and I didn't even notice.

My daughter
had to tell me.

Dr. Grey?

I'll, uh...

I'll leave you to it.

This is bad.

It's --
It's bad, right?

Ooh,
that's a lot of mets, Schmitt.

You pulled up the wrong year,
honey.

It's 1983.
No,
just wait for it.

Wait for it.
Not '82.

No, hey, here. Yeah.

Grapevine underarm turn,
right forward across,

and that's the moment we won
right there.

Immaculate.
You were immaculate.

Always were.

We love the Internet.

Get to watch ourselves
all over again.

Most people hate it
for that very same reason.

Irene,
this is Dr. Grey.

Hi.
Have you been having
shortness of breath?

Because your lungs,
uh...

You said it was
a bowel obstruction,

so why are we
talking about lungs?

I'm sorry, it's...

A bowel obstruction
is causing your pain, Irene,

but the cancer is --
is in your liver and your lungs,

and it -- it has spread
throughout your body.

B-But...

Can you operate on --
on...anything?

With this degree
of metastasis,

your immune system
is severely compromised,

and I'm just not sure you would
recover from a surgery.

I can't recommend it.

I'm very sorry.

You're a doctor,
sweetheart.

The doctor's
not supposed to cry.

I'm sorry. It's, uh --
It's allergies.

Dr. Schmitt will set up
a consult

with our
palliative care team,

and they will make sure
that you're comfortable.

Again, I'm very sorry I don't
have better news for you.

I asked Ben
to look into his history.

Parents died in a car accident
when he was 5.

No relatives
came forward,

and he's been bouncing in and
out of foster homes ever since.

Suction.

He's a good kid.

He's a smart kid.

He's a straight-A student.

And he's been raising
three foster siblings

on his own
for months.

So what's gonna
happen to him?

Nobody wants to adopt
a 17-year-old.

All they see is someone
who is basically an adult

and figure
that he can fend for himself,

but he's -- he's not,
and he can't.

Welcome back,
Dr. Pierce.

Thank you, Dr. Knox.

Back?
What does he mean "back"?

Where -- Where were you,
and how long were you gone?

Are you rusty?

Because --
No, I was, um...

I took a --

She took a break --
a short break --

and now she's well-rested
and she's ready.

And, Suzanne, Dr. Pierce is
an extraordinary surgeon.

You're in very good hands.

Okay, Suzanne?

Count back from 10
for me.

Taylor Olson is a girl.

My sister thinks
that Taylor is a boy,

but my daughter Matty
was kissing a girl at school.

Which means that my sister

basically just outed
my daughter,

and she doesn't even
know it.

Matty must be...

furious,
and...

confused.

And I don't know...
happy?

In love?

Definitely in need
of her cool, supportive mom,

and not her uptight Aunt
who never wanted to be a parent.

And my youngest, Mei Li,
she was already an orphan once,

so she
will never recover

if I don't make it
off this table,

so you can't
let me die.

Got that?

My kids really need me.

Suzanne,
we've got you.

Dr. Bells to L&D.
Dr. Debra Bells to L&D.

Dr. Schmitt?

Norman, hi.

I'm paging
the palliative care department.

I understand.

But before you do that,
I -- I wondered...

Yeah?

You remind me
of my grandson.

You want me
to call him?
No, no.

He's all the way back
in Baltimore, but...

you are kind.

And gentle.

Just like him.

And that made me think
that maybe I could ask

if you could do a sad old man
a very big favor.

Literally anything.

Did you identify
the phrenic nerve?

Yep.

Okay, and you have good
mobilization of the
pulmonary ligament?

Ooh,
decompression is good.

Did someone ask you
to babysit me?

You have double-checked me
on every step.

Was it Koracick?
Wasn't anyone.

I'm just
really worried about Suzanne.

Did you listen to her
when we were putting her under?

She's not here
for my feelings --

she's here for my hands
and my expertise,

and that is my focus,

and it should be yours,
too.

Surgery was smooth?

Yes.

Good.

Okay, when she wakes up,

we need to withdraw
all treatment.

All antibiotics,
all antifungals, and steroids.

What?

Why would we
do that?

We've already tested
for infectious diseases,

malignancies,
and autoimmune disorders,

and now we're at the point
where we have to consider

there's some clue that's being
suppressed by the medication.

We need it to present itself.

Dr. Riley --

Suzanne needs
those antibiotics

to treat a form of infection
that we can't find.

And the steroids
to treat her pericarditis.

If we do
what you're saying,

she could go into septic shock
and be dead in days.

I don't know, Maggie,
what do you think?

I think it's reckless
and cavalier,

and I believe
that you'd be making

a catastrophic mistake.

Make sure you follow up
on the path

of those pericardial
fluid analyses

and, uh,
keep me posted.

Dr. DeLuca, you asked me
for my recommendation.

This is it.

I need you guys!
Uh, well, not all of you.

I-I need those guys.

Can they come to the cafeteria
with me?

Yeah, go.

Hey.

Need to
rest my feet.

Yeah.

Need to rest my feet
every 50 yards or so these days.

You mind?
No, go ahead.

I'm a little worried that
all the rage seeping out of me

might infect you
or trigger labor or something,

but if you're willing
to chance it, then...

Who are we raging at?

Who do you think?

He made you interview
for your old job?

No, he made me wait all day,
then he made me interview.

Now he's made me
wait out here again

while he consults
with Catherine Fox.

And you're doing it?

Yeah.
Why?

Because if
I give him just one reason

not to give me a job here,
then he wins.

He doesn't like me.
He doesn't want me around.

You stole
his girlfriend.

Hell yeah I did.

You won.

You got the girl.
You got the family.

You got
the whole Megillah.

Just let Tom
have his fun.

Or, you know,
his pain.

'Cause that's
what it is.

He's lonely.

He's in pain.

How do you do that?

Do what?

Feel everyone's feelings
so deeply all the time.

It must be exhausting.

It really is.

Norman.

What did you do?

Can you believe
Mr. Grant still fits?

My tux.

Irene Sholman, I'll never forget
the day we met.

You were
across a dance floor,

yelling at the judges
for docking you a quarter point.

It was love
at first fight.

How I got so lucky,
I'll never know.

May I have this dance?

I can
disconnect your oxygen.

And whenever
you need to stop,

I'll be right here,
okay?

I don't have a gown.

I look terrible.

You look exquisite.

I figured you would've been
long gone by now.

I've already
been to a meeting.

I didn't want to go home
to an empty house.

I'm not sure where I work,
so...here I am.

Come on,
you work here.

Not by choice.

I chose to work
at Pac-North,

even though
I resented it.

We were building a new program
from the ground up.

And Catherine took
it all away

with one phone call
to the bank.

This'll pass,
you know.

It feels bad now,
but soon enough,

you guys will be
joking about this over coffee.

Son, after Godzilla's done
stomping all over Tokyo,

the mayor doesn't
take Godzilla to brunch.

Okay, you are heartbroken,
so I'll forget the fact

that you just compared my mother
to a giant lizard monster.

Irene,
how are you feeling?

Any trouble breathing?
Any pain?

I'm still floating,
dear.

Is Norman --

He's calling the kids.

Don't be sad,
darling.

Don't be sad.

I've had
a beautiful life.

And I'm ending it
with a beautiful partner.

This life, it's just never
stopped surprising me.

Have you met the love
of your life, Dr. Schmitt?

I hate
that he's all alone.

I hate
that he has nowhere to go.

I was him,
and Alex was him,

and we turned out okay.

It's not hopeless.

It's just not easy.

You okay?

There was a time when
I would have made a dance floor

for the dying old lady.

What?

Andrew and I broke up
the night of my trial,

and there was a time
when that would've meant

months of drama for me.

But instead, I went home
and went to bed, and I woke up,

and I was just excited
to go practice medicine.

I used to be
a romantic.

I would've been
the one

to build the dance floor
in the cafeteria.

And now you're leaving
the dance floors to the interns.

You're not lacking in passion,
Grey, you're just...

growing up a little.

What would you do
if Ben dumped you?

I'd burn him
to the ground.

Richard walked.

What do you mean "walked"?

I mean he left.

He doesn't want to work
on Koracick's terms,

and, honestly,
neither do I.

Are we just gonna
let this happen?

No!

No, I'm not gonna
sit by helpless

while my family
gets split apart again.

You two,
come with me.

Wait, what?

You said
Dr. Riley never gives up.

It --
I-It's not giving up.

We will be monitoring you
the entire time.

You want to take my sister
off all her medication --

how is that
not giving up?!

As symptoms arise,
we'll treat them.

It's scary,
I know.

You don't know
about anything!

That article was right.

This is
the hospital from hell.

Please let me
transfer you.

I will find you
a specialist.

If I say yes,
what's going to happen?

We will remove you
from all of your medication.

And you will get sicker,
and you'll feel more pain.

I know I'm asking you

to make an incredibly
difficult decision,

and I'm sorry.

I have three sisters.

The oldest one is my hero.

The youngest one is my baby.

I changed her diapers, and
I will never let her forget it.

The middle one...

...is my best friend.

And if I were
in Suzanne's position,

she's the one
who would decide for me,

and that's why
I'm talking to you.

Your sister's immune system
is too compromised

for her to be moved safely.

And even if we could move her,

you're not going to find
anyone better than me.

You may have noticed
that my ears don't work.

But because of that,

I have learned to listen
with my whole body.

When the medications are gone,
the disease can start talking

so I can figure out
what is wrong with your sister

and hopefully,
we can save her life.

You have my permission.

Withdraw everything.

Okay.

Hey, uh, I --
I just wanted to say

I also have a sister,
and that that was --

I'm an only child.

Oh, thanks for coming,
Tom.

Close the door.

Have a seat.

You did
great work today, Tom.

Such great work.

But the board,
of which most of us are members,

we've, uh,
come to a decision.

We're all prepared
to quit.

I'm sensing a "but."

But Dr. Fox wouldn't really
like that.

You know,
and as you said yourself,

she wants me here.

I mean, she wants
all of us here.
Mm.

But, uh,
she will truly wonder

why you didn't do
all you could

to protect
her crown jewel hospital.

I mean,
you've only just recovered

from the
Hospital from Hell article.

We could blame me
for that,

or we could just remember

that I'm a Catherine Fox
Foundation award winner

and a media darling,

and, I mean,
you want me here.

You can't afford to lose
all your best doctors.

And truly,
your inability to see that

could cause
Catherine Fox to question

the whole
chief of chiefs title.

And the salary.

And the benefits.

Name your terms.
We're a family.

You have joined
our family,

and some of us have come
to grudgingly respect you.

But you do not get to rule
this family with an iron fist.

Yeah, you don't get
to play all day,

dangling our jobs over our heads
like a carrot.

What -- I --

Wait a minute.
I-I already did that.

Hunt and Webber
get their jobs back.

Pierce and Altman
become co-chiefs,

and you find the money
to cover it.

And Alex Karev and Hayes
can co-chief.

Or we all quit.

Agree to
our terms, Tom.

And then
you get to just

take all the credit
with Catherine.

The heart beats until it can't.

Our limbs move
until they don't.

- All right!
- Nice!

Our brains imagine futures
we'll never see.

What's wrong?

I -- I -- I don't just
want sex.

Okay.

Nico, I want...

I want
a dance partner.

Not the flailing arms
around kind,

but the kind
that takes practice and...

communion.

The kind
where you're in perfect step,

and you anticipate
each other's needs,

and your heartbeats
are in sync, and --

Is this a poem,
or are you being literal?

Wait, I -- I --
honestly, I can't tell.

We're struggling to overcome
a simple, inescapable truth --

everything ends.

But for every clock that
counts down, another restarts.

Time goes on,

and when one thing ends,
something new always begins.
