Prima visione USA: 14 maggio 2006
Prima visione Italia: 11 maggio 2007
Guest starring: Chris O'Donnell (Finn Dandridge), Sara Ramirez (Calliope "Callie" Torres), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Denny Duquette), Robin Pearson Rose (Patricia), Steven W. Bailey (Joe), Brooke Smith (Dr. Erica Hahn), Michael Arden (Neal), Michael Melhoan (Doug Thomas), Ken Marino (Brad), Jesse Head (Will), Sydney Tamiia Poitier (Deborah)
Finn informa Meredith, Addison e Derek che Doc sta molto male e che ha un tumore osseo. Durante l'incontro e il successivo arrivo in ospedale dei tre medici, Addison si accorge che tra il marito e l'ex amante qualcosa non funziona. La cosa la mette in grande agitazione e cerca di scoprire il motivo della loro freddezza, ma i due non le rispondono.
A causa di una sparatoria in un bar, molti feriti da arma da fuoco affollano il pronto soccorso e i casi da seguire sono molti. Meredith si occupa di un ragazzo un ferito ad una gamba, mentre George e Derek devono operare una ragazza incinta con un proiettile nel cranio. Una altro uomo scampato alla sparatoria non fa che vantarsi per come sia riuscito ad accorgersi in tempo dell'uomo col fucile che, tra l'altro, lui stesso aveva licenziato tempo prima. Solo la dottoressa Bailey riesce ad zittirlo.
La ragazza incinta muore durate l'intervento e i genitori vorrebbero tenerla in vita artificialmente per consentire al feto di crescere. Derek chiede ad Addison di parlare con loro, ma solo le parole gentili di George riescono a far riflettere i due genitori. Mentre si occupa del ragazzo che deve essere operato alla gamba, Meredith collabora con Callie e le chiede informazioni su quello che potrebbe accadere al cane, visto che la dottoressa potrebbe aver visto casi simili negli uomini. Lei però le risponde male e più tardi George le spiega che anche se Meredith si è comportata male, lui la considera sempre la sua famiglia, e in una famiglia ci si sostiene. Callie allora spiega a Meredith che il suo cane ha comunque poche speranze di vita.
Nel frattempo arriva la notizia che c'è a disposizione un cuore per Danny, così Izzie e Burke si devono dare da fare per preparare l'espianto e il successivo trapianto.
Burke è ancora arrabbiato con Cristina e per farle un dispetto porta Alex con lui ad aiutarlo nell'espianto del cuore. Lei ci rimane molto male, e per questo da anche consigli sbagliati ad una coppia di fidanzati coinvolti nella sparatoria.
Purtroppo al loro arrivo nell'altro ospedale, Alex e Burke scoprono che il cuore destinato a Danny è danneggiato e allora cercano di prendere il cuore del fratello del donatore, anche lui morto durante l'incidente. Non è così semplice però, visto che c'è una lista di attesa a cui devono fare riferimento e Danny risulta iscritto 17 secondi dopo il malato in cura da un dottoressa ex compagna di studi di Burke, anche lei arrivata in fretta per l'espianto. Solo se Danny versasse in condizioni più gravi dell'altro potrebbe avere il cuore. Visto che pochi minuti prima Danny ha voluto, contro il parere di Izzie, firmare i documenti per la non rianimazione perché è stufo di aspettare, Izzie al telefono con Burke mente sulle condizione del suo paziente. Detta la bugia non le resta altro che fare in modo che Danny peggiori davvero. Dalle parole di Izzie, Burke capisce che lei si sta per mettere nei guai e torna di corsa al Seattle Grace per controllare di persona.
Danny non è contrario a fare in modo di peggiorare, si sente di prendere il posto di qualcun altro e inoltre se dovesse morire lui crede nel Paradiso, ma Izzie lo scongiura di fare questa cosa per lei, perché se la lasciasse sola ora che ne è così innamorata lei non riuscirebbe a perdonarglielo.
Addison affronta Meredith e le chiede se è stata di nuovo a letto con Derek ma lei risponde tranquillamente di no e che anzi, ora esce con Finn. Allora è chiaro per Addison che il motivo di tanto risentimento nel marito è proprio la gelosia che prova per Meredith, così gli fa una scenata davanti a tutti i colleghi in ospedale alla quale lui non reagisce più di tanto. Webber la riprende per le sue grida e lei si difende dicendo di essere estenuata dalla situazione perché si sente di non poter competere perché Derek ama Meredith profondamente.
Izzie vuole staccare i fili di Danny per provocargli un attacco, così va da George per chiedergli aiuto proprio poco dopo che Callie gli ha detto che l'ama. Lui non ha il tempo di rispondere alla fidanzata e lei ci rimane un po’ male.
L'uomo chiacchierone esce dall'ospedale e all'interno tutti sentono degli spari, il folle lo ha aspettato fuori perché ce l'aveva proprio con lui. La dottoressa Bailey corre fuori e trova a terra ferito da un proiettile anche il dottor Burke.
Izzie ha tagliato i fili del macchinario di Danny.
Quotes
Meredith (v/o): In life we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. We all know the big ones... gluttony, pride, lust. But the thing you don't hear much about is anger. Maybe it's because we think anger is not that dangerous, that you can control it. My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all when it comes to destructive behaviour, it did make the top seven.
[at Joe's, Derek and Burke are throwing darts, Meredith, Izzie, Cristina are at the bar talking]
Cristina: [about Burke] He is picturing my face. He is totally picturing that dart puncturing my skull. [sees Burke holding up arm in manly show-off and imitates him] Wooo look at that.
Izzie: [to Meredith] Derek, Derek is picturing you.
Meredith: He called me a whore. He lost the right to picture me.
Cristina: So I fall asleep during sex. So what? Ass!
Meredith: [about Derek] Ass!
Izzie: [Alex walks over] Oh, ass! Hey.
Alex: [to Izzie] Isobel Stevens has finally left the hospital. Does this mean heart patient dude finally kicked it?
Izzie: [to Alex] I'm sorry, this section of the bar is for surgeons. We don't socialize with gynecologists.
Alex: Seen any enima kits?
Meredith: We have thirteen GSWs and you looking for enima kits?
Alex: Trapped upstairs with the Gyno-Beast on the Uterus Parade.
Meredith: Addison can't do this thing forever Alex
Alex: I swear to God she ruined vaginas for me.
Derek: Can you imagine? You're working, and someone comes in and shoots you - puts a bullet in your head.
Girlfriend: Love means never having to use your girlfriend as a HUMAN SHIELD!
Addison: Are you sleeping with my husband?
Meredith: Not since before I found out he was married.
Denny: Izzy. . . .Izzy, stop and listen to me. We're not doing this.
Izzie: Don't worry. You're not gonna die. I will be here the whole time to make sure of that and that's what this stuff is for.
Denny: This isn't about me dying. Alright? This is wrong.
Izzie: You've waited a year and a half to get this thing. Who knows when the next one is gonna come along.
Denny: I'll take my chances.
Izzie: No. It may be too late by then. [continuing her preparations]
Denny: Then it's too late. Alright? Get this stuff out of here.
Izzie: Denny! Please. You have to do this.
Denny: No, Izzy! I'm not about to steal a heart from another man's chest! Not to mention, this'd be the end of your medical career.
Izzie: I don't care about my medical career.
Denny: Alright, you know what? This has gone on long enough. I'm gonna call a nurse. . . .
Izzie: Everyone who is entered into the transplant program is clocked in to the second. . . . to the second, Denny, you were clocked in to the second and so was the other guy, I checked with UNOS. The difference between when you entered the program and when he entered the program is 17 seconds. That it, Denny. 17 seconds. I mean, that's not even the length of a decent kiss. So, this other guy? I'm not saying that he doesn't deserve this heart. I'm sure he does. But so. do. you. So do you. And if you tell me ANYmore crap about heading towards the light or looking down on me from heaven, I swear, I will kill you myself right now. [gasping a little]
Denny: [[I]tears in his eyes] Izzy... [pause] I'm gonna be alright. [shaking her head in disbelief] Alright, you don't have to worry.
Izzie: What About ME? What about me when you go into the light?
Denny: Izzie--
Izzie: No! I get it, OK? I get it! You'll be OK, you'll be fine, but what about me?! So don't do it for yourself, do it for me! Please? Please, Denny! Please do this for me! Because if you die--Oh, God! You have to do this! You have to do this for me, or I'll never be able to forgive you!
Denny: For dying?
Izzie: No! For making me love you! Please? Please, do this--
Denny: Come here.
Izzie: Please do this for me? OK? Please? OK? I can't do this if you don't/ Please! Do this for me! Plese?!
Denny: OK. OK, I'll do it.
[on one of the open walkways in the hospital, after talking with Kendra's parents]
Derek: [pulling Addison from the hospital room] They just lost their daughter.
Addison: I know. That was my point, Derek. They need to face that. She's not coming back.
Derek: A little sensitivity'd be nice here, okay? [pause] They love their daughter. They don't want to let go. Alright?
Addison: What they're doing is not about love, Derek! Well, it's like you.
Derek: Excuse me.
Addison: Yeah, how you pretend to love me, but really you're just using me to fill some need you have to be a good guy.
Derek: Now's not the time to talk about this. We'll talk about this later.
Addison: Oh what, you walk away, that's all I get?
Derek: Just calm down, please.
Addison: What, what, you're not going to yell at me, call me names, or, I don't know, ignore me in an elevator?
Derek: What do you want from me, Addison?
Addison: I want you to care. I sleep with your best friend, and you walk away. He comes out here from New York and rubs it in your face, and still you get a good night's sleep. What do I have to do? Oh, I know. Maybe what I should do is go out on a date with the vet because that seems to be something that sends you into a blind rage. Oh but wait, that won't work either because I'm not Meredith Grey.
[Derek stares at Addison before shifting his eyes slightly to the railing of the walkway they are standing on, prompting Addison to look down at everyone below (including Meredith, Christina and the Chief) staring up at them. Derek turns and walks away. Christina looks at Meredith then turns around, Meredith looks away and the Chief looks at Meredith before turning away, a little irritated. Addison continues to look down in dismay.]
Addison: I know what you're going to say Richard, but if you knew the day that I had...
Chief: Everybody in this hospital has those days Addison, and no one makes a scene in front of their peers. Get it together. [Long Pause] Addison.
Addison: I can't compete. He's not having an affair. He's not trying to hurt me. He's just... [sighs]. The only people who don't know that Derek loves Meredith are Derek and Meredith. How do I compete with that?
Izzie: I told a lie. [pause] To Dr. Burke.
Cristina: Good for you, fight the power.
Denny: (to Izzie) a kiss is worth a thousand words
Meredith (v/o): So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really, you give into a sin like envy or pride and you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself and one or two others. But anger, anger is the worst... the mother of all sins... Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does you can take an awful lot of people with you.

Burke viene portato d'urgenza al pronto soccorso mentre Izzie sta cercando di salvare Danny. George va a chiamare anche Meredith per farsi dare un mano perché Izzie non gli permette di chiamare nessun altro.
Webber manda Cristina a seguire un caso per allontanarla da Burke che nel frattempo ha ripreso conoscenza, ma lei lo vede attraverso la porta steso sul lettino e va da lui. La pallottola può avergli compromesso l'uso di un braccio, la situazione può essere molto grave e Derek non sa se se la sente di operarlo per la paura di sbagliare e provocargli così una paralisi dell'arto. Burke chiede a Cristina di andare a controllare Danny ed anche lei, entrando nella stanza, si trova ormai coinvolta in quello a cui Izzie ha dato inizio. Tutti vengono presi dal panico perché non sanno esattamente cosa fare anche perché Burke non verrà ad aiutarli, ma Meredith cerca di riportare la calma e li convince che dovranno fare tutti gli esami per confermare il peggioramento del paziente. Intanto Alex deve prendere tempo per non far portare via il cuore destinato a Danny.
All'ospedale arriva anche la moglie di Webber per accompagnare la nipote che ha avuto un malore durante la sua "prima volta", la sera del ballo della scuola. Alla ragazza era già stato diagnosticato un cancro alle ovaie, una le era stata asportata, ma ora sembra essere ripeggiorata. Addison non da molte speranze alla zia e quando Webber manda via tutti gli amici della nipote, Adele gli fa una scenata rinfacciandogli di non avergli chiesto mai niente e di averlo ripreso dopo la sua relazione clandestina. Se lui non permetterà alla nipote Camille di avere il suo ballo lei lo sbatterà fuori di casa. Lui è alquanto sconvolto nel venire a conoscenza che la moglie ha sempre saputo del suo tradimento.
Un momento prima di peggiorare, mentre Cristina ed Izzie litigano, Danny chiede ad Izzie di sposarlo. La dottoressa Bailey si accorge che i suoi specializzandi sono spariti e capisce che c'è qualcosa sotto, così li va a cercare e capisce subito cosa è accaduto. Cerca di allontanare Izzie da Danny ma lei si rifiuta così la sospende, mentre chiede spiegazioni agli altri tre. Controlla la analisi e chiede al primario cosa dovrebbe fare se "ipoteticamente" accadesse che qualcuno faccia in modo che un paziente si aggravi per avere un cuore. Alex riesce a prendere in tempo il cuore per Danny e chiede alla dottoressa amica di Burke di accompagnarlo al Seattle Grace e di effettuare l'intervento.
Burke chiede a Cristina consiglio su cosa fare, può farsi operare e rischiare o lasciare passare del tempo per vedere se il torpore alla mano passa, ma lei è incapace di aiutarlo e scappa via con una scusa. Derek decide di correre il rischio ed operarlo, ma per una complicazione decide di dover svegliare Burke per farsi aiutare da lui e fa chiamare Cristina per farlo stare calmo e concentrato al momento del risveglio. Lei si blocca di nuovo, ma fortunatamente Derek riesce a calmare Preston e a farsi dire da lui cosa sente per capire se qualche nervo è stato reciso.
George e Meredith rimasti soli hanno un chiarimento, lui le dice che deve smetterla di chiedere scusa, perché lui sapeva in realtà che lei non lo amava, ma è voluto andare avanti lo stesso perché una notte con lei era comunque importante. Forse anche lui si deve scusare.
Il nuovo cuore di Danny sembra non funzionare…

Diretto da: Mark Tinker
Prima visione USA: 15 maggio 2006
Prima visione Italia: 11 maggio 2007
Guest starring: Chris O'Donnell (Finn Dandridge), Sara Ramirez (Calliope "Callie" Torres), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Denny Duquette), Loretta Devine (Adele Webber), Sarah Utterback (Nurse Olivia), Hallee Hirsh (Claire), Tessa Thompson (Camille), Brooke Smith (Erica Hahn), Tiffany Hines (Natalie)
La mano di Burke non sembra aver subito lesioni e il cuore di Danny ricomincia a battere.
Il primario interroga gli specializzandi per sapere chi ha tagliato il filo di Danny, ma tutti si auto accusano. Così decide di sospenderli tutti dagli interventi e gli da ordine di organizzare il ballo per Camille con l'aiuto delle amiche di lei. Solo con l'aiuto deciso della Bailey però riescono ad organizzarsi.
Izzie vorrebbe confessare ma gli altri per spirito di squadra non glielo permettono, solo Alex ha dei dubbi.
Danny è sveglio e Izzie è molto imbarazzata quando lo va trovare, ma lui le rinnova la proposta di matrimonio dicendole che ora che può fare della sua vita quello che vuole, crede sia giusto seguire il cuore e i suoi desideri. Lei non gli riesce a rispondere subito e va via.
Callie va cercare George per chiedergli perché non l'ha cercata la sera precedente ma lui le dice di non poterle spiegare, la invita al ballo e lei rifiuta. Anche Finn è invitato al ballo da Meredith, era andato a cercarla per informarla che Doc è peggiorato e che forse potrebbe essere opportuno sopprimerlo.
Webber interroga gli specializzandi separatamente ed ognuno di loro ha altro di cui discutere. Alex gli racconta di aver praticato molti sport e che è stato abituato a giocare con e per la squadra, anche se i compagni non gli piacciono troppo. Cristina gli chiede come fa ad essere distaccato nel lavoro, perché lei sente che sta perdendo il controllo della sua capacità di non venire coinvolta. Prima di iniziare con questo lavoro lei non perdeva mai il controllo, ma ora le cose sono cambiate e vorrebbe sapere quale modo usare per essere lucida, ma lui le risponde che non vuole essere responsabile della sua perdita di umanità. Izzie invece gli spiega che per la prima volta si sente presa veramente sul serio da un uomo, i suoi capelli biondi e il suo seno prorompente in questo senso sono sempre stati un ostacolo, ma con Danny tutto questo è cambiato. George finisce per parlare delle difficoltà di fare veramente quello che si sente e Meredith, dopo un lunga pausa, dice a Webber di avere capito tutto. Lui era l'amante della madre per cui lei ha lasciato suo padre, ma per essere una brava persona, Webber non ha seguito il suo cuore, ha fatto quello che più gli conveniva, non ha rischiato e non ha lasciato la moglie a sua volta. Le parole dei ragazzi fanno riflettere il primario di chirurgia su come lui abbia dato sempre la precedenza alla carriera.
Meredith dice a Derek di Doc e Izzie corre da Danny per dirgli che lo sposerà.
Burke dice a Cristina che se lei non vorrà occuparsi di lui la capirà, ha paura che non riprenderà l'uso completo della mano visto che tremava.
Doc viene soppresso e per Meredith è veramente un brutto momento. Da come lei e Derek ne parlano sembra che Doc rappresenti il loro amore finito.
Al Seattle Grace il ballo è iniziato, Camille ringrazia lo zio, Callie se la prende con George ma lui le dice di dargli tempo, Derek e Finn guardano Meredith scendere le scale ed entrambi ne sono rapiti. Mentre le due coppie ballano Finn dice a Meredith che con lei ha voglia di fare progetti, mentre Derek non smette di fissarla, tanto che lei sente il bisogno di andare via. Lui la insegue e i due hanno una discussione, lui le dice che non riesce a fare a meno di guardarla in quella maniera, non riesce a non essere geloso e vorrebbe provare quelle cose per la moglie. Poi i due si baciano e finiscono per fare sesso.
Nel frattempo Izzie arriva in ospedale con uno splendido vestito che vorrebbe fare vedere a Danny, ma lui purtroppo ha una complicazione e muore a causa di coagulo nel sangue prima che lei riesca ad arrivare da lui.
Derek chiede a Meredith cosa significa quello che è accaduto ma Callie li interrompe perché Izzie ha bisogno dei suoi amici. Se ne sta sdraiata sul letto di Danny e non se ne vuole andare, solo le dure parole di Alex, che la convince che Danny non avrebbe voluto vederla così, riescono a farla spostare. Cristina va da Burke e mostra di volergli stare accanto.
Izzie sconvolta dice a Webber che è stata lei a staccare i fili e che non se la sente di continuare ad essere un chirurgo.
La serata è finita, Meredith si trova a dover andare via con uno dei suoi due cavalieri, ma non riesce a scegliere.

Do it for your wife who never asks you for anything, who says nothing about your long hours, who looks the other way while you have an affair with another woman, who sobered you up when that woman left you, who stayed with you when everyone, everyone said I'd be better off alone. I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. You're going to make this up to Camille. You're going to prioritize the needs of your family above the needs of your other patients or [pause] you're going to find a new place to sleep.

Bailey: My interns. My ass-kissing, surgery-hungry, competitive suck-ups. Where are they? Why aren’t they here fetching you ice chips and morphine? Why aren't they here sucking up? [pause] You know something.
Burke: I'm a patient.
Bailey: Preston Xavier Burke, what have you done with my suck-ups?!
Bailey: You fools better have a good explanation for this.
Bailey: You three, outside. NOW! [pause] Where was rational thought? Where was cognitive thinking? We're supposed to do no harm. The morals, the ethics, where was sanity when you three decided to help that girl?
Meredith: We . . .
Bailey: No, no, no. No speaking. Nobody speaks. I do not want to have to testify against you in a court of law.
Bailey: How you feeling Denny?
Denny: Really really good. Like an athlete or a superhero or some other really really healthy person.
Izzie: You're funny. You're a funny guy.

Dr. Hahn: That's what you said half an hour ago. Well, whether or not we hear from him, when we hit that hour mark, I'm going in to get my heart.
George: Bailey's treating us like children, we're not children! We shouldn't have to sit out here like we're in time-out or something.
Meredith: What we did is way in need of a time-out.
Cristina: You realize we could get kicked out of the program for this?
Izzie: Not we, I did this. I did this. You're probably right, maybe I should run. But I'd rather be running towards someone than running away.
Chief: [walking up to the group] Yang, Shep's asking for you.
Christina: Uh, for Burke's surgery?
Chief: Yes, hurry up.
Christina: Uh, I can't, I'm in a time-out.
Chief: Time-out's over, Yang we need you. [they walk off]

George: Really happened.
Meredith: It really did.
Izzie: [gets this look on her face] Screw this, I'm checking on Denny. [gets up and leaves]
Meredith: Thank you for calling me about Izzie.
George: I didn't do you any favors.
Meredith: But it meant something, that you called. It meant something to me.
George: It didn't mean anything.
Meredith: Right, ok, sorry.
George: STOP SAYING THAT YOU'RE SORRY! [pause] You wanna know something? I knew. I knew you didn't feel that way about me, even during, when we were in bed I knew. I knew and I still let it happen, because, um, well, I figured that one night with you was better than never. So, will you just stop saying that you're sorry? 'Cause you didn't know any better, but I did. And . . . I'm sorry. [turns to look at her] I'm sorry Meredith.
Izzie: I cut the LVAD wire.
Meredith: Actually, I cut the LVAD wire.

Cristina: Fine, I cut the LVAD wire.
Alex: I didn't do anything, I'm totally innocent..
Christina, George, Meredith, Izzie: [all at once] Alex. - That’s not the point. - What about loyalty?
Chief: PEOPLE! I know who did this, so you might as well come clean. I know!
George: With all due respect sir, if you knew you wouldn't be asking us.
Izzie: I did it.
Meredith: You have your suspicions, but you don't actually know.
Cristina: Not for sure.
George: And you can't do anything to any of us without proof, sir.
Chief: Well, one of you compromised a patient's life. One of you stole an organ. One of you jeopardized the integrity of this hospital and of UNOS. Now you tell me and you tell me right now. [silence] Alright, fine. [they start to leave] No surgeries.
Cristina: Sir?
Chief: No one scrubs in, no one watches from the galleries, no one so much as goes near the OR floor. Until someone confesses, you will share a single patient: Camille Travis. Whatever she wants, the five of you will provide it. Get the hell out of my sight.
Cristina: Hey! We stick together, we all did this. Nobody's a victim. We stick together. [surprised looks from everyone] Dammit.
Izzie: Thank you.
Cristina: You're welcome.
High School Girl: We need a theme.
George: Theme . . .
Other High School Girl: Ooh ooh ohh. Can we have sparkly lights? Cause sparkly lights are AMAZING!
Cristina: I didn't like teenage girls when I was a teenage girl.
Meredith: I wore a lot of black.
Cristina: Oooo.
Meredith: Had the whole angry pink hair thing going on. Wouldn't have been caught dead at a prom.
Cristina: My mother made me go. My date barfed on my dress and then tried to feel me up.
Denny: What? You like your men sick and feeble? You don't dig healthy guys?
Izzie: I dig you.
Denny: Then why are you all swirly and twitchy?
Izzie: No I'm not.
Denny: It's 'cause I asked you to marry me.
Izzie: So you remember that?
Denny: Its not the kind of thing I'd forget.
Izzie: Yeah. Denny, um, I'm giving you an out.
Denny: Excuse me?
Izzie: Well, I'm giving you an out. You thought you were dying and I was saving your life and well, you know, it was so [gasp]. We can't get married. I mean that would be insane. We should date, and have sex. Plenty of sex. You know when your heart gets better and you're out of the hospital, all the sex you can handle. But marriage is, um, marriage.
Denny: Ok, it's my turn now.
Izzie: But I need to . . .
Denny: No, no. We're taking turns. I've decided. It's polite and it keeps me from yelling. When it's your turn again, you can talk. [pause] For five years, I've had to live by the choices of my doctors. The guys that cut me open decided my life, there wasn't one choice that was mine. And now, I have this heart that beats and works. I get to be like everybody else, I get to make my own decisions, have my own life, do whatever the damned hell I choose. Now here's the good part, so you listen close, what I choose, is you. You're who I want to wake up with and go to bed with and do everything in between with. I get a choice now. I get to choose. I choose you, Izzy Stevens. Ok, it's your turn again.
Alex: [groaning noises]
George: Are you having a seizure?
Alex: Will that get me out of here? Fine, let's go with seizure. For the love of God, you people need to get a life.
George: Chief's niece. Chief's niece
High School Girl: Its OK, the hot ones are always mean, it's like a rule or something.
George: [to Bailey out in the hall] Not to bother you, but . . .
Bailey: What? alright, one of you better spit out the problem right now.
Alex: The problem is the colors and the balloons and the Under the Sea. No it's Titanic. Hey, let's go with Tears in Heaven. No, that’s too morbid. It should be pink. It should be red. It should be a freaking rainbow.
George: What he's saying is that we're very very hopeful that you speak teenage girl.
Bailey: [back in the room with the high school girls] Silver and white. It's mystical and magical without being over the top. Ever seen Fashion Week in New York? Lots of silver and white runways and backdrops. That’s because no matter what color the clothes are, they pop.
High School Girls: They pop?
Bailey: They pop! O'Malley and Karev, get 500 balloons in silver and white. 100 in black, shiny black not the matte. Yang, stick with Camilla, keep her happy, keep her spirits up. Gray, get with Patricia, make sure we can rope off the second floor nurses' station and the waiting room. [they're all looking at her, in shock] Oh, no no, you don't get to look at me like that. No, you compromised my medical license, you nearly killed a patient, lied to the chief of surgery, and made me, your resident, look bad, we're gonna do this prom and we're doing it right!
Meredith: It’s a long story, which essentially ends with me inviting you to a prom.
Finn: An actual prom? Corsages and tuxedos?
Meredith: Yeah, it's stupid, I know.
Finn: No, I'm in. I loved prom. I mean I, I don't wanna brag or anything, but I was crowned king.
Meredith: Really? You were "that kid" in high school?
Finn: What is wrong with being "that kid?"
Meredith: Nothing, it's very cute actually.
Alex: [one on one meeting with the Chief] I went to college on a wrestling scholarship. I played baseball, some basketball. But we'll go with football.
Chief: What the hell does football have to do with who cut the LVAD wires?
Alex: Let's say you were drafted to a team that wasn’t your first pick. You know, you don't like the players. You hate the way they play the game. You even think the quarterback is full of crap. The quarterback's a pain in the ass you don't owe a damned thing to. But, it's your team. You don't quit. You don't talk to the press. You don't bitch to the coach. You just, you just go out there every Sunday and you make the blocks and you take the hits and you, you play to win. You show up and you suit up and you play, because it's your freaking team.
Chief: [one on one meeting with Cristina] I know your type. You're a surgical junkie.
Cristina: Yessir?
Chief: I'm just saying, it's not going to be easy for you to be away from the OR that long.
Cristina: No sir.
Chief: And if you want to get back to the OR, you're going to tell me what I need to know, aren't you?
Cristina: You're right, it's not easy for me to be away from the OR. And it's not easy for me to sit in front of you, or any other authority figure, for that matter, and not be able to give you the exact answer that you want to hear. I'm the one with the answers. I've always been the one with the answers. But right now, sir, I don't have any.
Chief: Dr. Yang.
Cristina: How do you keep your edge sir? Because I've watched you and you've been doing this a long time, and you're clean...you're focused, you are the job, nothing gets to you. And the thing is, sir, I was like that...until I got here, until I actually started doing this job and now everything is--is fuzzy and . . .
Chief: That’s beside the point.
Cristina: No, see, sir, this is the point. Because I can't tell you, I can't tell you what happened in that room. And before I could have; no guilt, no loyalties, no problem. Before--before I wouldn't have even been in that room. I wouldn't have gotten involved. I would have never frozen in surgery, and I would have told him what I thought he should do. I had an edge, sir. I had an edge, and I've lost it, and I need it. I need it back. So, if you could just tell me, how you keep yours and how not to be affected, I know I could be a great surgeon. So if you could just give me the answers, I would really appreciate it.
Chief: You're excused Dr. Yang.
Cristina: But--
Chief: You're excused.
Christina: I'll tell you, I'll tell you who cut the LVAD wires if you'll please--
Chief: No you won't, I don't wanna know. Not from you. Yea, I have the answers, but I can't tell them to you. I'm not going to be responsible for you becoming less human.
Izzie: [one on one meeting with the Chief] I'm a pretty girl.
Chief: What?
Izzie: I'm not being arrogant, its just, its just kind of a fact. For a long time I made a career from my looks, so I get it, I'm a pretty girl. And not in a "from a certain angle" way, in an obvious way. It’s the blonde thing and the big boobs thing, big boobs are a key to obvious pretty if you know what I'm saying.
Chief: Dr. Stevens.
Izzie: Its how men see me. I'm not a smart girl or an interesting girl, I'm a pretty girl. The blonde and the boobs it confuses guys into thinking that I'm someone else. And I'm used to it. And I'm used to them walking away when they realize… But then Denny goes and asks me to marry him.
Chief: Is that why you cut the wires?
Izzie: He doesn't make me feel like I'm a pretty girl. He makes me feel like… like me. I think he might know me. And so, if I did cut the LVAD wire, and I'm not saying that I did, but if I did, then no, I don't feel guilty. And I know that I should. And I would if it were anybody elses. But I can't feel anything but happy.
George: [one on one meeting with the Chief] Aren't you gonna say anything or [pause] I'm not gonna break [pause] I'm starting to get a little freaked out, but I'm not gonna break. Its not because I don't care, because I do care what you think about me, I do. Care. I just can't tell you want you wanna hear. Which seems to be a theme in my life right now. Just because you can't say something doesn't mean you don't want to, you can want to very much. You can be with a person and be happy with them and not love them. And you can love somebody and not want to be with them. You don't need to love someone to want them. Now that's frustrating, when what your brain tells you you want and what you actually want don't match up. Its exhausting. And, well, its complicated. But that's life. And life... sucks.
Chief: [one on one meeting with Meredith] [as Meredith is staring off] I've known you for a long time. And I know your mother and father. And I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you did not cut those LVAD wires. Meredith, I need you to tell me who did it.
Meredith: I've been going over this and over this in my mind trying to piece this together. It was you, you're the reason my parents broke up. And it wasn't just an affair, she really loved you. It wasn't just this cheap thing where she didn’t tell you she was married. It wasn't all a lie. She left her husband for you. But you stayed with your wife, because it was the right thing to do. Maybe safe, but she was the right person for you to be with. Lets face it, my mother, nothing wrong with being safe, being with the good guy because hes good and we are talking about forever here. You've never regretted your decision. You've never looked back... Right?
Izzy: Denny!
Bailey: What did I tell you, visiting hours aren't for another hour, you are no longer his doctor, you want to see Denny, you come back when the visitors come.
Izzy: I would but I can't wait.
Denny: Ixnay on the insubordinationay...
Izzy: But it's my turn.
Bailey: Come on, if the chief finds out you were even on this floor...
Denny: Hold on.. it's her turn.
Izzy: Yes. My answer is yes.
Denny: Now see, you're gonna make my heart stop beating and it's brand new.
Bailey: (to Izzy): I will call security on you.
Izzy: OK, I will come back during visiting hours. And it's prom, so I'll show you my dress.
Denny: OK.
Bailey: *glares*
Izzy: I'm going!
Denny: Izzy? You did good.
Denny: (To Bailey) I tricked her into marrying me. How smart am I?
George: Hey I was looking for you, where are you going?
Callie: I'm wearing a dress, I have on heels, I shaved my legs - I'm going to the prom.
George: You said you didn't wanna go.
Callie: No, I said I didn’t wanna go with you.
George: CALLIE!
Callie: I said I love you. I said it. I said it outloud, to your face. And ever since.. I've never said that to a guy before, never. And now I'm just this idiot that says I love you and gets avoided.
George: No, I'm not avoiding you. I promise.
Callie: You gonna say it back.
George: No.
Callie: I'm humilitated. No, George, let me go. Let me go, let me go.
George: Stop fighting me. If I say it back right now, you know I'm just saying it cause you said it to me. When I, when I say I love you, I wanna mean it, because… You just hafta give me some time to mean it.
Callie: I hate that I'm so into you.
[To Derek about the prom.]
Addison: This whole thing brings back very traumatic memories of being a band geek, with braces, and a lisp; spending the whole evening with 'Skippy Gold' talking about Star Wars. So, do you want to dance?
[At the prom.]
Finn: You're a lot hotter than my last prom date.
Meredith: Is that a compliment?
Finn: Maybe.
Meredith: It feels like a compliment.
Finn: Then it is.
Meredith: Well keep it up and you might get lucky.
Finn: Well, now how lucky are we talking about here? Are we talking kinda lucky or are we talking really, seriously lucky?
Meredith: You have been a very patient man and I appreciate it. [he makes a face] What?
Finn: Liz, Liz was my wife. When she died… you do this thing where you stop making plans. Because you had plans but then there was a car crash and your plans disappeared so you just, I just try to get from sunup to sundown. That’s as far into the future as I can handle. And I've been fine with that, I have. But right now, looking at you, damn, I have all kinds of plans. Don't, don't freak out.
Meredith: I'm not.
Finn: You're not?
Meredith: No. You have plans.
Finn: I have plans.
[hugs him and keeps dancing with her head on his shoulder. Sees Derek staring at her]
Finn: You alright?
Meredith: Yeah, I'm just hot, and ah, claustrophobic.
Derek: [To Addison] You know what? There's a patient I forgot to check on.
Meredith: You know, I'm just gonna run and splash some cold water on my face.
Derek: I'll be right back, okay?
Meredith: I'll be right back, okay?
[Meredith running down a hall in the hospital.]
Derek: Meredith.
Meredith: Leave me alone.
Derek: Meredith.
[Meredith and Derek in a hospital room.]
Meredith: Just leave me alone.
Derek: I just want to make sure you're alright.
Meredith: No! I'm not alright? Okay? Are you satisfied? I'm not alright. Because you have a wife, and you call me a whore, and our dog died, and now you're looking at me again. Stop looking at me.
Derek: I am not looking at you. I am not looking at you.
Meredith: You are looking at me. And you watch me. And Finn has plans. And I like Finn. He's perfect for me, and I'm really trying here to be happy, and I feel like I can't breathe. I can't breathe with you looking at me like that so just stop!
Derek: You think I want to look at you? That I wouldn't rather be looking at my wife? I'm married. I have responsibilities. She, she doesn't drive me crazy. She doesn't make it impossible for me to feel normal. She doesn't make me sick to my stomach thinking about my veternarian touching her with his hands. Man, I would give anything to not be looking at you.
[Long pause. Meredith turns around and looks at Derek. Derek grabs Meredith's head and kisses her. And then they have sex.]
Alex: Oh, you look nice.
Izzie: Thanks, so do you. Hot date?
Alex: Nah, this thing is cheesy, I wouldn't waste a decent chick on this. You headed in?
Izzie: Yeah, I'm just gonna go see Denny first.
Alex: Oh, OK.
Derek: What does this mean?
Meredith: Uh, I had panties on, black. Do you see them?
Derek: What does this mean?
Meredith: And fix your tie.
Derek: Meredith, what does this mean?
Callie: [opening the door] Oh, the nurse told me to come find you. You have to come now, it's
Izzie. Wait, wait. [stops Meredith and ties the back of her dress] [gives Derek a mean look]
George: What happened?
Olivia: I didn't know what to do, I didn't think you guys would want me to go to the chief, but…
Christina: Where is she?
Olivia: She's in there. [walk in to see Izzie lying in bed with Denny]
Christina: Izzie.
Izzie: I think it was a stroke. He was prone to blood clots. A clot could have formed on his sutures and traveled to his brain, it only takes a second.
Meredith: Izz…
Izzie: Dr. Hahn did a beautiful job on the surgery. But I don't know why I didn't think of blood clots. He died all alone. He was alone.
George: There's nothing you could have done.
Izzie: I changed my dress three times. I wanted to look nice. I would have been here sooner. But I couldn't figure out which dress to wear.
George: Izzie, we shouldn't be in here.
Meredith: Izz, there are things that they need, they need to move him.
Izzie: Take him to the morgue.
Cristina: You can't stay here, I know you want to,
Izzie: Can you please, please, just get out? I want to be alone with Denny.
Alex: Izzie, that’s not Denny.
Izzie: Shut up.
Alex: Izz, its not Denny. The minute his heart stopped beating he stopped being Denny. Now I know you love him, but he also loved you. And a guy that loves you like that, he doesn't want you to do this to yourself. Because it's not Denny, not anymore.
Izzie: An hour ago he was proposing. And now . . . and now he's going to the morgue. Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't it the most ridiculous piece of crap you've ever heard? [starts sobbing]
[Alex picks her up, cradling her, and sits down on a chair holding and rocking her while she sobs]
[Addison and Finn looking at prom pictures in the hallway.]
Addison: [to Finn, laughing] I'm sorry, these are ridiculous.
[Derek comes out of the elevator, fixing his tie.]
Addison: [to Derek] Hey.
Derek: [to Addison] Hi.
Addison: [to Derek] Where have you been?
Derek: [to Addison] Oh, I was with . . .
Chief: [to Derek] Shepherd.
Derek: [to Chief] Yes, sir.
Chief: [to Derek] Have you seen Bailey's interns, Grey, Yang? I'm looking for Izzie Stevens in particular.
Derek: [to Chief, shaking his head] No, no.
Bailey: Chief.
[Izzie, George, Alex, and Meredith come walking down the hallway. When Meredith walks by, Derek turns around and doesn't look at her. Addison looks at Derek, and knows something is up.]
Izzie: [to the Chief] It was me. I cut his LVAD wire. I did it, no one helped me. And now… I thought I was a surgeon, but, I can't. I thought I was a surgeon, but I am not, so I quit. [George tries to block her from walking off. She walks around him. He and Alex follow her down the stairs]
Bailey: Izzie!
Addison: I guess that puts an end to the evening.
Derek: Yeah.
Chief: I guess it does.
[Addison and the Chief walk off, leaving Finn, Derek, and Meredith in the hallway.]
Finn: [to Meredith] I'll drive you home.
[Finn walks away. Meredith turns and looks at Derek. Derek turns and looks at her. Derek looks at Finn as he is walking away. Finn turns around and looks back at Meredith. Finn looks at Derek. Derek looks back at Finn, then back to Meredith.]
Derek: [to Meredith] Meredith.
[Meredith and Derek look at each other. Finn realizes what is going on.]
Finn: [to Meredith] Meredith.
[Meredith looks at Finn. Finn and Derek look at each other. They both look back to Meredith. The show ends, waiting for Meredith to make a decision.]

Riassunto
Scritto da: Mark Wilding
Diretto da: Dan Minahan
Prima visione USA: 14 maggio 2006
Prima visione Italia: 11 maggio 2007
Guest starring: Chris O'Donnell (Finn Dandridge), Sara Ramirez (Calliope "Callie" Torres), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Denny Duquette), Robin Pearson Rose (Patricia), Steven W. Bailey (Joe), Brooke Smith (Dr. Erica Hahn), Michael Arden (Neal), Michael Melhoan (Doug Thomas), Ken Marino (Brad), Jesse Head (Will), Sydney Tamiia Poitier (Deborah)
Finn informa Meredith, Addison e Derek che Doc sta molto male e che ha un tumore osseo. Durante l'incontro e il successivo arrivo in ospedale dei tre medici, Addison si accorge che tra il marito e l'ex amante qualcosa non funziona. La cosa la mette in grande agitazione e cerca di scoprire il motivo della loro freddezza, ma i due non le rispondono.
A causa di una sparatoria in un bar, molti feriti da arma da fuoco affollano il pronto soccorso e i casi da seguire sono molti. Meredith si occupa di un ragazzo un ferito ad una gamba, mentre George e Derek devono operare una ragazza incinta con un proiettile nel cranio. Una altro uomo scampato alla sparatoria non fa che vantarsi per come sia riuscito ad accorgersi in tempo dell'uomo col fucile che, tra l'altro, lui stesso aveva licenziato tempo prima. Solo la dottoressa Bailey riesce ad zittirlo.
La ragazza incinta muore durate l'intervento e i genitori vorrebbero tenerla in vita artificialmente per consentire al feto di crescere. Derek chiede ad Addison di parlare con loro, ma solo le parole gentili di George riescono a far riflettere i due genitori. Mentre si occupa del ragazzo che deve essere operato alla gamba, Meredith collabora con Callie e le chiede informazioni su quello che potrebbe accadere al cane, visto che la dottoressa potrebbe aver visto casi simili negli uomini. Lei però le risponde male e più tardi George le spiega che anche se Meredith si è comportata male, lui la considera sempre la sua famiglia, e in una famiglia ci si sostiene. Callie allora spiega a Meredith che il suo cane ha comunque poche speranze di vita.
Nel frattempo arriva la notizia che c'è a disposizione un cuore per Danny, così Izzie e Burke si devono dare da fare per preparare l'espianto e il successivo trapianto.
Burke è ancora arrabbiato con Cristina e per farle un dispetto porta Alex con lui ad aiutarlo nell'espianto del cuore. Lei ci rimane molto male, e per questo da anche consigli sbagliati ad una coppia di fidanzati coinvolti nella sparatoria.
Purtroppo al loro arrivo nell'altro ospedale, Alex e Burke scoprono che il cuore destinato a Danny è danneggiato e allora cercano di prendere il cuore del fratello del donatore, anche lui morto durante l'incidente. Non è così semplice però, visto che c'è una lista di attesa a cui devono fare riferimento e Danny risulta iscritto 17 secondi dopo il malato in cura da un dottoressa ex compagna di studi di Burke, anche lei arrivata in fretta per l'espianto. Solo se Danny versasse in condizioni più gravi dell'altro potrebbe avere il cuore. Visto che pochi minuti prima Danny ha voluto, contro il parere di Izzie, firmare i documenti per la non rianimazione perché è stufo di aspettare, Izzie al telefono con Burke mente sulle condizione del suo paziente. Detta la bugia non le resta altro che fare in modo che Danny peggiori davvero. Dalle parole di Izzie, Burke capisce che lei si sta per mettere nei guai e torna di corsa al Seattle Grace per controllare di persona.
Danny non è contrario a fare in modo di peggiorare, si sente di prendere il posto di qualcun altro e inoltre se dovesse morire lui crede nel Paradiso, ma Izzie lo scongiura di fare questa cosa per lei, perché se la lasciasse sola ora che ne è così innamorata lei non riuscirebbe a perdonarglielo.
Addison affronta Meredith e le chiede se è stata di nuovo a letto con Derek ma lei risponde tranquillamente di no e che anzi, ora esce con Finn. Allora è chiaro per Addison che il motivo di tanto risentimento nel marito è proprio la gelosia che prova per Meredith, così gli fa una scenata davanti a tutti i colleghi in ospedale alla quale lui non reagisce più di tanto. Webber la riprende per le sue grida e lei si difende dicendo di essere estenuata dalla situazione perché si sente di non poter competere perché Derek ama Meredith profondamente.
Izzie vuole staccare i fili di Danny per provocargli un attacco, così va da George per chiedergli aiuto proprio poco dopo che Callie gli ha detto che l'ama. Lui non ha il tempo di rispondere alla fidanzata e lei ci rimane un po’ male.
L'uomo chiacchierone esce dall'ospedale e all'interno tutti sentono degli spari, il folle lo ha aspettato fuori perché ce l'aveva proprio con lui. La dottoressa Bailey corre fuori e trova a terra ferito da un proiettile anche il dottor Burke.
Izzie ha tagliato i fili del macchinario di Danny.
Quotes
Meredith (v/o): In life we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. We all know the big ones... gluttony, pride, lust. But the thing you don't hear much about is anger. Maybe it's because we think anger is not that dangerous, that you can control it. My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all when it comes to destructive behaviour, it did make the top seven.
[at Joe's, Derek and Burke are throwing darts, Meredith, Izzie, Cristina are at the bar talking]
Cristina: [about Burke] He is picturing my face. He is totally picturing that dart puncturing my skull. [sees Burke holding up arm in manly show-off and imitates him] Wooo look at that.
Izzie: [to Meredith] Derek, Derek is picturing you.
Meredith: He called me a whore. He lost the right to picture me.
Cristina: So I fall asleep during sex. So what? Ass!
Meredith: [about Derek] Ass!
Izzie: [Alex walks over] Oh, ass! Hey.
Alex: [to Izzie] Isobel Stevens has finally left the hospital. Does this mean heart patient dude finally kicked it?
Izzie: [to Alex] I'm sorry, this section of the bar is for surgeons. We don't socialize with gynecologists.
Alex: Seen any enima kits?
Meredith: We have thirteen GSWs and you looking for enima kits?
Alex: Trapped upstairs with the Gyno-Beast on the Uterus Parade.
Meredith: Addison can't do this thing forever Alex
Alex: I swear to God she ruined vaginas for me.
Derek: Can you imagine? You're working, and someone comes in and shoots you - puts a bullet in your head.
Girlfriend: Love means never having to use your girlfriend as a HUMAN SHIELD!
Addison: Are you sleeping with my husband?
Meredith: Not since before I found out he was married.
Denny: Izzy. . . .Izzy, stop and listen to me. We're not doing this.
Izzie: Don't worry. You're not gonna die. I will be here the whole time to make sure of that and that's what this stuff is for.
Denny: This isn't about me dying. Alright? This is wrong.
Izzie: You've waited a year and a half to get this thing. Who knows when the next one is gonna come along.
Denny: I'll take my chances.
Izzie: No. It may be too late by then. [continuing her preparations]
Denny: Then it's too late. Alright? Get this stuff out of here.
Izzie: Denny! Please. You have to do this.
Denny: No, Izzy! I'm not about to steal a heart from another man's chest! Not to mention, this'd be the end of your medical career.
Izzie: I don't care about my medical career.
Denny: Alright, you know what? This has gone on long enough. I'm gonna call a nurse. . . .
Izzie: Everyone who is entered into the transplant program is clocked in to the second. . . . to the second, Denny, you were clocked in to the second and so was the other guy, I checked with UNOS. The difference between when you entered the program and when he entered the program is 17 seconds. That it, Denny. 17 seconds. I mean, that's not even the length of a decent kiss. So, this other guy? I'm not saying that he doesn't deserve this heart. I'm sure he does. But so. do. you. So do you. And if you tell me ANYmore crap about heading towards the light or looking down on me from heaven, I swear, I will kill you myself right now. [gasping a little]
Denny: [[I]tears in his eyes] Izzy... [pause] I'm gonna be alright. [shaking her head in disbelief] Alright, you don't have to worry.
Izzie: What About ME? What about me when you go into the light?
Denny: Izzie--
Izzie: No! I get it, OK? I get it! You'll be OK, you'll be fine, but what about me?! So don't do it for yourself, do it for me! Please? Please, Denny! Please do this for me! Because if you die--Oh, God! You have to do this! You have to do this for me, or I'll never be able to forgive you!
Denny: For dying?
Izzie: No! For making me love you! Please? Please, do this--
Denny: Come here.
Izzie: Please do this for me? OK? Please? OK? I can't do this if you don't/ Please! Do this for me! Plese?!
Denny: OK. OK, I'll do it.
[on one of the open walkways in the hospital, after talking with Kendra's parents]
Derek: [pulling Addison from the hospital room] They just lost their daughter.
Addison: I know. That was my point, Derek. They need to face that. She's not coming back.
Derek: A little sensitivity'd be nice here, okay? [pause] They love their daughter. They don't want to let go. Alright?
Addison: What they're doing is not about love, Derek! Well, it's like you.
Derek: Excuse me.
Addison: Yeah, how you pretend to love me, but really you're just using me to fill some need you have to be a good guy.
Derek: Now's not the time to talk about this. We'll talk about this later.
Addison: Oh what, you walk away, that's all I get?
Derek: Just calm down, please.
Addison: What, what, you're not going to yell at me, call me names, or, I don't know, ignore me in an elevator?
Derek: What do you want from me, Addison?
Addison: I want you to care. I sleep with your best friend, and you walk away. He comes out here from New York and rubs it in your face, and still you get a good night's sleep. What do I have to do? Oh, I know. Maybe what I should do is go out on a date with the vet because that seems to be something that sends you into a blind rage. Oh but wait, that won't work either because I'm not Meredith Grey.
[Derek stares at Addison before shifting his eyes slightly to the railing of the walkway they are standing on, prompting Addison to look down at everyone below (including Meredith, Christina and the Chief) staring up at them. Derek turns and walks away. Christina looks at Meredith then turns around, Meredith looks away and the Chief looks at Meredith before turning away, a little irritated. Addison continues to look down in dismay.]
Addison: I know what you're going to say Richard, but if you knew the day that I had...
Chief: Everybody in this hospital has those days Addison, and no one makes a scene in front of their peers. Get it together. [Long Pause] Addison.
Addison: I can't compete. He's not having an affair. He's not trying to hurt me. He's just... [sighs]. The only people who don't know that Derek loves Meredith are Derek and Meredith. How do I compete with that?
Izzie: I told a lie. [pause] To Dr. Burke.
Cristina: Good for you, fight the power.
Denny: (to Izzie) a kiss is worth a thousand words
Meredith (v/o): So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really, you give into a sin like envy or pride and you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself and one or two others. But anger, anger is the worst... the mother of all sins... Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does you can take an awful lot of people with you.

Prima visione Italia: 11 maggio 2007
Guest starring: Chris O'Donnell (Finn Dandridge), Sara Ramirez (Calliope "Callie" Torres), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Denny Duquette), Loretta Devine (Adele Webber), Hallee Hirsh (Claire), Tessa Thompson (Camille), Brooke Smith (Erica Hahn), Tiffany Hines (Natalie)
Burke viene portato d'urgenza al pronto soccorso mentre Izzie sta cercando di salvare Danny. George va a chiamare anche Meredith per farsi dare un mano perché Izzie non gli permette di chiamare nessun altro.
Webber manda Cristina a seguire un caso per allontanarla da Burke che nel frattempo ha ripreso conoscenza, ma lei lo vede attraverso la porta steso sul lettino e va da lui. La pallottola può avergli compromesso l'uso di un braccio, la situazione può essere molto grave e Derek non sa se se la sente di operarlo per la paura di sbagliare e provocargli così una paralisi dell'arto. Burke chiede a Cristina di andare a controllare Danny ed anche lei, entrando nella stanza, si trova ormai coinvolta in quello a cui Izzie ha dato inizio. Tutti vengono presi dal panico perché non sanno esattamente cosa fare anche perché Burke non verrà ad aiutarli, ma Meredith cerca di riportare la calma e li convince che dovranno fare tutti gli esami per confermare il peggioramento del paziente. Intanto Alex deve prendere tempo per non far portare via il cuore destinato a Danny.
All'ospedale arriva anche la moglie di Webber per accompagnare la nipote che ha avuto un malore durante la sua "prima volta", la sera del ballo della scuola. Alla ragazza era già stato diagnosticato un cancro alle ovaie, una le era stata asportata, ma ora sembra essere ripeggiorata. Addison non da molte speranze alla zia e quando Webber manda via tutti gli amici della nipote, Adele gli fa una scenata rinfacciandogli di non avergli chiesto mai niente e di averlo ripreso dopo la sua relazione clandestina. Se lui non permetterà alla nipote Camille di avere il suo ballo lei lo sbatterà fuori di casa. Lui è alquanto sconvolto nel venire a conoscenza che la moglie ha sempre saputo del suo tradimento.
Un momento prima di peggiorare, mentre Cristina ed Izzie litigano, Danny chiede ad Izzie di sposarlo. La dottoressa Bailey si accorge che i suoi specializzandi sono spariti e capisce che c'è qualcosa sotto, così li va a cercare e capisce subito cosa è accaduto. Cerca di allontanare Izzie da Danny ma lei si rifiuta così la sospende, mentre chiede spiegazioni agli altri tre. Controlla la analisi e chiede al primario cosa dovrebbe fare se "ipoteticamente" accadesse che qualcuno faccia in modo che un paziente si aggravi per avere un cuore. Alex riesce a prendere in tempo il cuore per Danny e chiede alla dottoressa amica di Burke di accompagnarlo al Seattle Grace e di effettuare l'intervento.
Burke chiede a Cristina consiglio su cosa fare, può farsi operare e rischiare o lasciare passare del tempo per vedere se il torpore alla mano passa, ma lei è incapace di aiutarlo e scappa via con una scusa. Derek decide di correre il rischio ed operarlo, ma per una complicazione decide di dover svegliare Burke per farsi aiutare da lui e fa chiamare Cristina per farlo stare calmo e concentrato al momento del risveglio. Lei si blocca di nuovo, ma fortunatamente Derek riesce a calmare Preston e a farsi dire da lui cosa sente per capire se qualche nervo è stato reciso.
George e Meredith rimasti soli hanno un chiarimento, lui le dice che deve smetterla di chiedere scusa, perché lui sapeva in realtà che lei non lo amava, ma è voluto andare avanti lo stesso perché una notte con lei era comunque importante. Forse anche lui si deve scusare.
Il nuovo cuore di Danny sembra non funzionare…

Riassunto
Scritto da: Shonda Rhimes
Diretto da: Mark Tinker
Prima visione USA: 15 maggio 2006
Prima visione Italia: 11 maggio 2007
Guest starring: Chris O'Donnell (Finn Dandridge), Sara Ramirez (Calliope "Callie" Torres), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Denny Duquette), Loretta Devine (Adele Webber), Sarah Utterback (Nurse Olivia), Hallee Hirsh (Claire), Tessa Thompson (Camille), Brooke Smith (Erica Hahn), Tiffany Hines (Natalie)
La mano di Burke non sembra aver subito lesioni e il cuore di Danny ricomincia a battere.
Il primario interroga gli specializzandi per sapere chi ha tagliato il filo di Danny, ma tutti si auto accusano. Così decide di sospenderli tutti dagli interventi e gli da ordine di organizzare il ballo per Camille con l'aiuto delle amiche di lei. Solo con l'aiuto deciso della Bailey però riescono ad organizzarsi.
Izzie vorrebbe confessare ma gli altri per spirito di squadra non glielo permettono, solo Alex ha dei dubbi.
Danny è sveglio e Izzie è molto imbarazzata quando lo va trovare, ma lui le rinnova la proposta di matrimonio dicendole che ora che può fare della sua vita quello che vuole, crede sia giusto seguire il cuore e i suoi desideri. Lei non gli riesce a rispondere subito e va via.
Callie va cercare George per chiedergli perché non l'ha cercata la sera precedente ma lui le dice di non poterle spiegare, la invita al ballo e lei rifiuta. Anche Finn è invitato al ballo da Meredith, era andato a cercarla per informarla che Doc è peggiorato e che forse potrebbe essere opportuno sopprimerlo.
Webber interroga gli specializzandi separatamente ed ognuno di loro ha altro di cui discutere. Alex gli racconta di aver praticato molti sport e che è stato abituato a giocare con e per la squadra, anche se i compagni non gli piacciono troppo. Cristina gli chiede come fa ad essere distaccato nel lavoro, perché lei sente che sta perdendo il controllo della sua capacità di non venire coinvolta. Prima di iniziare con questo lavoro lei non perdeva mai il controllo, ma ora le cose sono cambiate e vorrebbe sapere quale modo usare per essere lucida, ma lui le risponde che non vuole essere responsabile della sua perdita di umanità. Izzie invece gli spiega che per la prima volta si sente presa veramente sul serio da un uomo, i suoi capelli biondi e il suo seno prorompente in questo senso sono sempre stati un ostacolo, ma con Danny tutto questo è cambiato. George finisce per parlare delle difficoltà di fare veramente quello che si sente e Meredith, dopo un lunga pausa, dice a Webber di avere capito tutto. Lui era l'amante della madre per cui lei ha lasciato suo padre, ma per essere una brava persona, Webber non ha seguito il suo cuore, ha fatto quello che più gli conveniva, non ha rischiato e non ha lasciato la moglie a sua volta. Le parole dei ragazzi fanno riflettere il primario di chirurgia su come lui abbia dato sempre la precedenza alla carriera.
Meredith dice a Derek di Doc e Izzie corre da Danny per dirgli che lo sposerà.
Burke dice a Cristina che se lei non vorrà occuparsi di lui la capirà, ha paura che non riprenderà l'uso completo della mano visto che tremava.
Doc viene soppresso e per Meredith è veramente un brutto momento. Da come lei e Derek ne parlano sembra che Doc rappresenti il loro amore finito.
Al Seattle Grace il ballo è iniziato, Camille ringrazia lo zio, Callie se la prende con George ma lui le dice di dargli tempo, Derek e Finn guardano Meredith scendere le scale ed entrambi ne sono rapiti. Mentre le due coppie ballano Finn dice a Meredith che con lei ha voglia di fare progetti, mentre Derek non smette di fissarla, tanto che lei sente il bisogno di andare via. Lui la insegue e i due hanno una discussione, lui le dice che non riesce a fare a meno di guardarla in quella maniera, non riesce a non essere geloso e vorrebbe provare quelle cose per la moglie. Poi i due si baciano e finiscono per fare sesso.
Nel frattempo Izzie arriva in ospedale con uno splendido vestito che vorrebbe fare vedere a Danny, ma lui purtroppo ha una complicazione e muore a causa di coagulo nel sangue prima che lei riesca ad arrivare da lui.
Derek chiede a Meredith cosa significa quello che è accaduto ma Callie li interrompe perché Izzie ha bisogno dei suoi amici. Se ne sta sdraiata sul letto di Danny e non se ne vuole andare, solo le dure parole di Alex, che la convince che Danny non avrebbe voluto vederla così, riescono a farla spostare. Cristina va da Burke e mostra di volergli stare accanto.
Izzie sconvolta dice a Webber che è stata lei a staccare i fili e che non se la sente di continuare ad essere un chirurgo.
La serata è finita, Meredith si trova a dover andare via con uno dei suoi due cavalieri, ma non riesce a scegliere.

George: Izzie.
Izzie: You have a decision to make, you can stay here and help me with this or you can leave, what's it gonna be George?

Nurse: He's a lost cause.

Izzie: Burke's not coming.
Meredith: Cristina are you ok?

Izzie: Burke's not coming.
George: Why didn't I take the internship in San Diego? None of this would be happening if I was in San Diego.

Cristina: I'm not involved.
Izzie: What if this was Burke? What if you were me?
Cristina: This is bad. This is bad and serious and against a lot of rules. It's not fun for me.

Izzie: Yeah.
Meredith: Alex, do this, for Izzie.
Alex: I'm not guaranteeing anything.
Adele: If you don't want to bend your precious rules for Camille, fine. Don't do it for her; do it for me. Do it for your wife who never asks you for anything, who says nothing about your long hours, who looks the other way while you have an affair with another woman, who sobered you up when that woman left you, who stayed with you when everyone, everyone said I'd be better off alone. I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. You're going to make this up to Camille. You're going to prioritize the needs of your family above the needs of your other patients or [pause] you're going to find a new place to sleep.
Chief: There's never a good place to hide in this hospital.
Chief: You don't know how much I wish this was bourbon.
Bailey: Anything I can get for you, Dr. Burke?
Burke: No, I'm fine.
Bailey: There, there must be something.
Burke: It would be nice to have some ice chips. And, uh, a touch of morphine if I'm allowed. And, uh, [pause] Cristina.
Bailey: Coming right up. [She starts to walk out of the room] Where is Cristina? Where are, where are all the little suck-ups?
Burke: Excuse me?
Bailey: My interns. My ass-kissing, surgery-hungry, competitive suck-ups. Where are they? Why aren’t they here fetching you ice chips and morphine? Why aren't they here sucking up? [pause] You know something.
Burke: I'm a patient.
Bailey: Preston Xavier Burke, what have you done with my suck-ups?!
Bailey: You fools better have a good explanation for this.
Bailey: You three, outside. NOW! [pause] Where was rational thought? Where was cognitive thinking? We're supposed to do no harm. The morals, the ethics, where was sanity when you three decided to help that girl?
Meredith: We . . .
Bailey: No, no, no. No speaking. Nobody speaks. I do not want to have to testify against you in a court of law.
Bailey: How you feeling Denny?
Denny: Really really good. Like an athlete or a superhero or some other really really healthy person.
Izzie: You're funny. You're a funny guy.
Alex: We should be hearing from Dr. Burke any minute.
Dr. Hahn: That's what you said half an hour ago. Well, whether or not we hear from him, when we hit that hour mark, I'm going in to get my heart.
George: Bailey's treating us like children, we're not children! We shouldn't have to sit out here like we're in time-out or something.
Meredith: What we did is way in need of a time-out.
Cristina: You realize we could get kicked out of the program for this?
Izzie: Not we, I did this. I did this. You're probably right, maybe I should run. But I'd rather be running towards someone than running away.
Chief: [walking up to the group] Yang, Shep's asking for you.
Christina: Uh, for Burke's surgery?
Chief: Yes, hurry up.
Christina: Uh, I can't, I'm in a time-out.
Chief: Time-out's over, Yang we need you. [they walk off]
Izzie: He said marry me, right? He did? That really happened?
George: Really happened.
Meredith: It really did.
Izzie: [gets this look on her face] Screw this, I'm checking on Denny. [gets up and leaves]
Meredith: Thank you for calling me about Izzie.
George: I didn't do you any favors.
Meredith: But it meant something, that you called. It meant something to me.
George: It didn't mean anything.
Meredith: Right, ok, sorry.
George: STOP SAYING THAT YOU'RE SORRY! [pause] You wanna know something? I knew. I knew you didn't feel that way about me, even during, when we were in bed I knew. I knew and I still let it happen, because, um, well, I figured that one night with you was better than never. So, will you just stop saying that you're sorry? 'Cause you didn't know any better, but I did. And . . . I'm sorry. [turns to look at her] I'm sorry Meredith.
Izzie: I cut the LVAD wire.
Meredith: Actually, I cut the LVAD wire.
George: No, I did. I'm the one who cut the wire. [pause] [elbows Cristina]
Cristina: Fine, I cut the LVAD wire.
Alex: I didn't do anything, I'm totally innocent..
Christina, George, Meredith, Izzie: [all at once] Alex. - That’s not the point. - What about loyalty?
Chief: PEOPLE! I know who did this, so you might as well come clean. I know!
George: With all due respect sir, if you knew you wouldn't be asking us.
Izzie: I did it.
Meredith: You have your suspicions, but you don't actually know.
Cristina: Not for sure.
George: And you can't do anything to any of us without proof, sir.
Chief: Well, one of you compromised a patient's life. One of you stole an organ. One of you jeopardized the integrity of this hospital and of UNOS. Now you tell me and you tell me right now. [silence] Alright, fine. [they start to leave] No surgeries.
Cristina: Sir?
Chief: No one scrubs in, no one watches from the galleries, no one so much as goes near the OR floor. Until someone confesses, you will share a single patient: Camille Travis. Whatever she wants, the five of you will provide it. Get the hell out of my sight.
Cristina: Hey! We stick together, we all did this. Nobody's a victim. We stick together. [surprised looks from everyone] Dammit.
Izzie: Thank you.
Cristina: You're welcome.
High School Girl: We need a theme.
George: Theme . . .
Other High School Girl: Ooh ooh ohh. Can we have sparkly lights? Cause sparkly lights are AMAZING!
Cristina: I didn't like teenage girls when I was a teenage girl.
Meredith: I wore a lot of black.
Cristina: Oooo.
Meredith: Had the whole angry pink hair thing going on. Wouldn't have been caught dead at a prom.
Cristina: My mother made me go. My date barfed on my dress and then tried to feel me up.
Denny: What? You like your men sick and feeble? You don't dig healthy guys?
Izzie: I dig you.
Denny: Then why are you all swirly and twitchy?
Izzie: No I'm not.
Denny: It's 'cause I asked you to marry me.
Izzie: So you remember that?
Denny: Its not the kind of thing I'd forget.
Izzie: Yeah. Denny, um, I'm giving you an out.
Denny: Excuse me?
Izzie: Well, I'm giving you an out. You thought you were dying and I was saving your life and well, you know, it was so [gasp]. We can't get married. I mean that would be insane. We should date, and have sex. Plenty of sex. You know when your heart gets better and you're out of the hospital, all the sex you can handle. But marriage is, um, marriage.
Denny: Ok, it's my turn now.
Izzie: But I need to . . .
Denny: No, no. We're taking turns. I've decided. It's polite and it keeps me from yelling. When it's your turn again, you can talk. [pause] For five years, I've had to live by the choices of my doctors. The guys that cut me open decided my life, there wasn't one choice that was mine. And now, I have this heart that beats and works. I get to be like everybody else, I get to make my own decisions, have my own life, do whatever the damned hell I choose. Now here's the good part, so you listen close, what I choose, is you. You're who I want to wake up with and go to bed with and do everything in between with. I get a choice now. I get to choose. I choose you, Izzy Stevens. Ok, it's your turn again.
Alex: [groaning noises]
George: Are you having a seizure?
Alex: Will that get me out of here? Fine, let's go with seizure. For the love of God, you people need to get a life.
George: Chief's niece. Chief's niece
High School Girl: Its OK, the hot ones are always mean, it's like a rule or something.
George: [to Bailey out in the hall] Not to bother you, but . . .
Bailey: What? alright, one of you better spit out the problem right now.
Alex: The problem is the colors and the balloons and the Under the Sea. No it's Titanic. Hey, let's go with Tears in Heaven. No, that’s too morbid. It should be pink. It should be red. It should be a freaking rainbow.
George: What he's saying is that we're very very hopeful that you speak teenage girl.
Bailey: [back in the room with the high school girls] Silver and white. It's mystical and magical without being over the top. Ever seen Fashion Week in New York? Lots of silver and white runways and backdrops. That’s because no matter what color the clothes are, they pop.
High School Girls: They pop?
Bailey: They pop! O'Malley and Karev, get 500 balloons in silver and white. 100 in black, shiny black not the matte. Yang, stick with Camilla, keep her happy, keep her spirits up. Gray, get with Patricia, make sure we can rope off the second floor nurses' station and the waiting room. [they're all looking at her, in shock] Oh, no no, you don't get to look at me like that. No, you compromised my medical license, you nearly killed a patient, lied to the chief of surgery, and made me, your resident, look bad, we're gonna do this prom and we're doing it right!
Meredith: It’s a long story, which essentially ends with me inviting you to a prom.
Finn: An actual prom? Corsages and tuxedos?
Meredith: Yeah, it's stupid, I know.
Finn: No, I'm in. I loved prom. I mean I, I don't wanna brag or anything, but I was crowned king.
Meredith: Really? You were "that kid" in high school?
Finn: What is wrong with being "that kid?"
Meredith: Nothing, it's very cute actually.
Alex: [one on one meeting with the Chief] I went to college on a wrestling scholarship. I played baseball, some basketball. But we'll go with football.
Chief: What the hell does football have to do with who cut the LVAD wires?
Alex: Let's say you were drafted to a team that wasn’t your first pick. You know, you don't like the players. You hate the way they play the game. You even think the quarterback is full of crap. The quarterback's a pain in the ass you don't owe a damned thing to. But, it's your team. You don't quit. You don't talk to the press. You don't bitch to the coach. You just, you just go out there every Sunday and you make the blocks and you take the hits and you, you play to win. You show up and you suit up and you play, because it's your freaking team.
Chief: [one on one meeting with Cristina] I know your type. You're a surgical junkie.
Cristina: Yessir?
Chief: I'm just saying, it's not going to be easy for you to be away from the OR that long.
Cristina: No sir.
Chief: And if you want to get back to the OR, you're going to tell me what I need to know, aren't you?
Cristina: You're right, it's not easy for me to be away from the OR. And it's not easy for me to sit in front of you, or any other authority figure, for that matter, and not be able to give you the exact answer that you want to hear. I'm the one with the answers. I've always been the one with the answers. But right now, sir, I don't have any.
Chief: Dr. Yang.
Cristina: How do you keep your edge sir? Because I've watched you and you've been doing this a long time, and you're clean...you're focused, you are the job, nothing gets to you. And the thing is, sir, I was like that...until I got here, until I actually started doing this job and now everything is--is fuzzy and . . .
Chief: That’s beside the point.
Cristina: No, see, sir, this is the point. Because I can't tell you, I can't tell you what happened in that room. And before I could have; no guilt, no loyalties, no problem. Before--before I wouldn't have even been in that room. I wouldn't have gotten involved. I would have never frozen in surgery, and I would have told him what I thought he should do. I had an edge, sir. I had an edge, and I've lost it, and I need it. I need it back. So, if you could just tell me, how you keep yours and how not to be affected, I know I could be a great surgeon. So if you could just give me the answers, I would really appreciate it.
Chief: You're excused Dr. Yang.
Cristina: But--
Chief: You're excused.
Christina: I'll tell you, I'll tell you who cut the LVAD wires if you'll please--
Chief: No you won't, I don't wanna know. Not from you. Yea, I have the answers, but I can't tell them to you. I'm not going to be responsible for you becoming less human.
Izzie: [one on one meeting with the Chief] I'm a pretty girl.
Chief: What?
Izzie: I'm not being arrogant, its just, its just kind of a fact. For a long time I made a career from my looks, so I get it, I'm a pretty girl. And not in a "from a certain angle" way, in an obvious way. It’s the blonde thing and the big boobs thing, big boobs are a key to obvious pretty if you know what I'm saying.
Chief: Dr. Stevens.
Izzie: Its how men see me. I'm not a smart girl or an interesting girl, I'm a pretty girl. The blonde and the boobs it confuses guys into thinking that I'm someone else. And I'm used to it. And I'm used to them walking away when they realize… But then Denny goes and asks me to marry him.
Chief: Is that why you cut the wires?
Izzie: He doesn't make me feel like I'm a pretty girl. He makes me feel like… like me. I think he might know me. And so, if I did cut the LVAD wire, and I'm not saying that I did, but if I did, then no, I don't feel guilty. And I know that I should. And I would if it were anybody elses. But I can't feel anything but happy.
George: [one on one meeting with the Chief] Aren't you gonna say anything or [pause] I'm not gonna break [pause] I'm starting to get a little freaked out, but I'm not gonna break. Its not because I don't care, because I do care what you think about me, I do. Care. I just can't tell you want you wanna hear. Which seems to be a theme in my life right now. Just because you can't say something doesn't mean you don't want to, you can want to very much. You can be with a person and be happy with them and not love them. And you can love somebody and not want to be with them. You don't need to love someone to want them. Now that's frustrating, when what your brain tells you you want and what you actually want don't match up. Its exhausting. And, well, its complicated. But that's life. And life... sucks.
Chief: [one on one meeting with Meredith] [as Meredith is staring off] I've known you for a long time. And I know your mother and father. And I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you did not cut those LVAD wires. Meredith, I need you to tell me who did it.
Meredith: I've been going over this and over this in my mind trying to piece this together. It was you, you're the reason my parents broke up. And it wasn't just an affair, she really loved you. It wasn't just this cheap thing where she didn’t tell you she was married. It wasn't all a lie. She left her husband for you. But you stayed with your wife, because it was the right thing to do. Maybe safe, but she was the right person for you to be with. Lets face it, my mother, nothing wrong with being safe, being with the good guy because hes good and we are talking about forever here. You've never regretted your decision. You've never looked back... Right?
Izzy: Denny!
Bailey: What did I tell you, visiting hours aren't for another hour, you are no longer his doctor, you want to see Denny, you come back when the visitors come.
Izzy: I would but I can't wait.
Denny: Ixnay on the insubordinationay...
Izzy: But it's my turn.
Bailey: Come on, if the chief finds out you were even on this floor...
Denny: Hold on.. it's her turn.
Izzy: Yes. My answer is yes.
Denny: Now see, you're gonna make my heart stop beating and it's brand new.
Bailey: (to Izzy): I will call security on you.
Izzy: OK, I will come back during visiting hours. And it's prom, so I'll show you my dress.
Denny: OK.
Bailey: *glares*
Izzy: I'm going!
Denny: Izzy? You did good.
Denny: (To Bailey) I tricked her into marrying me. How smart am I?
George: Hey I was looking for you, where are you going?
Callie: I'm wearing a dress, I have on heels, I shaved my legs - I'm going to the prom.
George: You said you didn't wanna go.
Callie: No, I said I didn’t wanna go with you.
George: CALLIE!
Callie: I said I love you. I said it. I said it outloud, to your face. And ever since.. I've never said that to a guy before, never. And now I'm just this idiot that says I love you and gets avoided.
George: No, I'm not avoiding you. I promise.
Callie: You gonna say it back.
George: No.
Callie: I'm humilitated. No, George, let me go. Let me go, let me go.
George: Stop fighting me. If I say it back right now, you know I'm just saying it cause you said it to me. When I, when I say I love you, I wanna mean it, because… You just hafta give me some time to mean it.
Callie: I hate that I'm so into you.
[To Derek about the prom.]
Addison: This whole thing brings back very traumatic memories of being a band geek, with braces, and a lisp; spending the whole evening with 'Skippy Gold' talking about Star Wars. So, do you want to dance?
[At the prom.]
Finn: You're a lot hotter than my last prom date.
Meredith: Is that a compliment?
Finn: Maybe.
Meredith: It feels like a compliment.
Finn: Then it is.
Meredith: Well keep it up and you might get lucky.
Finn: Well, now how lucky are we talking about here? Are we talking kinda lucky or are we talking really, seriously lucky?
Meredith: You have been a very patient man and I appreciate it. [he makes a face] What?
Finn: Liz, Liz was my wife. When she died… you do this thing where you stop making plans. Because you had plans but then there was a car crash and your plans disappeared so you just, I just try to get from sunup to sundown. That’s as far into the future as I can handle. And I've been fine with that, I have. But right now, looking at you, damn, I have all kinds of plans. Don't, don't freak out.
Meredith: I'm not.
Finn: You're not?
Meredith: No. You have plans.
Finn: I have plans.
[hugs him and keeps dancing with her head on his shoulder. Sees Derek staring at her]
Finn: You alright?
Meredith: Yeah, I'm just hot, and ah, claustrophobic.
Derek: [To Addison] You know what? There's a patient I forgot to check on.
Meredith: You know, I'm just gonna run and splash some cold water on my face.
Derek: I'll be right back, okay?
Meredith: I'll be right back, okay?
[Meredith running down a hall in the hospital.]
Derek: Meredith.
Meredith: Leave me alone.
Derek: Meredith.
[Meredith and Derek in a hospital room.]
Meredith: Just leave me alone.
Derek: I just want to make sure you're alright.
Meredith: No! I'm not alright? Okay? Are you satisfied? I'm not alright. Because you have a wife, and you call me a whore, and our dog died, and now you're looking at me again. Stop looking at me.
Derek: I am not looking at you. I am not looking at you.
Meredith: You are looking at me. And you watch me. And Finn has plans. And I like Finn. He's perfect for me, and I'm really trying here to be happy, and I feel like I can't breathe. I can't breathe with you looking at me like that so just stop!
Derek: You think I want to look at you? That I wouldn't rather be looking at my wife? I'm married. I have responsibilities. She, she doesn't drive me crazy. She doesn't make it impossible for me to feel normal. She doesn't make me sick to my stomach thinking about my veternarian touching her with his hands. Man, I would give anything to not be looking at you.
[Long pause. Meredith turns around and looks at Derek. Derek grabs Meredith's head and kisses her. And then they have sex.]
Alex: Oh, you look nice.
Izzie: Thanks, so do you. Hot date?
Alex: Nah, this thing is cheesy, I wouldn't waste a decent chick on this. You headed in?
Izzie: Yeah, I'm just gonna go see Denny first.
Alex: Oh, OK.
Derek: What does this mean?
Meredith: Uh, I had panties on, black. Do you see them?
Derek: What does this mean?
Meredith: And fix your tie.
Derek: Meredith, what does this mean?
Callie: [opening the door] Oh, the nurse told me to come find you. You have to come now, it's
Izzie. Wait, wait. [stops Meredith and ties the back of her dress] [gives Derek a mean look]
George: What happened?
Olivia: I didn't know what to do, I didn't think you guys would want me to go to the chief, but…
Christina: Where is she?
Olivia: She's in there. [walk in to see Izzie lying in bed with Denny]
Christina: Izzie.
Izzie: I think it was a stroke. He was prone to blood clots. A clot could have formed on his sutures and traveled to his brain, it only takes a second.
Meredith: Izz…
Izzie: Dr. Hahn did a beautiful job on the surgery. But I don't know why I didn't think of blood clots. He died all alone. He was alone.
George: There's nothing you could have done.
Izzie: I changed my dress three times. I wanted to look nice. I would have been here sooner. But I couldn't figure out which dress to wear.
George: Izzie, we shouldn't be in here.
Meredith: Izz, there are things that they need, they need to move him.
Izzie: Take him to the morgue.
Cristina: You can't stay here, I know you want to,
Izzie: Can you please, please, just get out? I want to be alone with Denny.
Alex: Izzie, that’s not Denny.
Izzie: Shut up.
Alex: Izz, its not Denny. The minute his heart stopped beating he stopped being Denny. Now I know you love him, but he also loved you. And a guy that loves you like that, he doesn't want you to do this to yourself. Because it's not Denny, not anymore.
Izzie: An hour ago he was proposing. And now . . . and now he's going to the morgue. Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't it the most ridiculous piece of crap you've ever heard? [starts sobbing]
[Alex picks her up, cradling her, and sits down on a chair holding and rocking her while she sobs]
[Addison and Finn looking at prom pictures in the hallway.]
Addison: [to Finn, laughing] I'm sorry, these are ridiculous.
[Derek comes out of the elevator, fixing his tie.]
Addison: [to Derek] Hey.
Derek: [to Addison] Hi.
Addison: [to Derek] Where have you been?
Derek: [to Addison] Oh, I was with . . .
Chief: [to Derek] Shepherd.
Derek: [to Chief] Yes, sir.
Chief: [to Derek] Have you seen Bailey's interns, Grey, Yang? I'm looking for Izzie Stevens in particular.
Derek: [to Chief, shaking his head] No, no.
Bailey: Chief.
[Izzie, George, Alex, and Meredith come walking down the hallway. When Meredith walks by, Derek turns around and doesn't look at her. Addison looks at Derek, and knows something is up.]
Izzie: [to the Chief] It was me. I cut his LVAD wire. I did it, no one helped me. And now… I thought I was a surgeon, but, I can't. I thought I was a surgeon, but I am not, so I quit. [George tries to block her from walking off. She walks around him. He and Alex follow her down the stairs]
Bailey: Izzie!
Addison: I guess that puts an end to the evening.
Derek: Yeah.
Chief: I guess it does.
[Addison and the Chief walk off, leaving Finn, Derek, and Meredith in the hallway.]
Finn: [to Meredith] I'll drive you home.
[Finn walks away. Meredith turns and looks at Derek. Derek turns and looks at her. Derek looks at Finn as he is walking away. Finn turns around and looks back at Meredith. Finn looks at Derek. Derek looks back at Finn, then back to Meredith.]
Derek: [to Meredith] Meredith.
[Meredith and Derek look at each other. Finn realizes what is going on.]
Finn: [to Meredith] Meredith.
[Meredith looks at Finn. Finn and Derek look at each other. They both look back to Meredith. The show ends, waiting for Meredith to make a decision.]
