Grey's Anatomy

Everybody wants privacy for themselves.

Do you have any idea how many places

I've been looking for you? What the hell, Alex?

You can't call? You can't text?

What happened?

For other people, not so much.

They said that the trial was canceled.

You said you were taking a plea.

I did.

Are you in hiding?

Are you evading the law? Are you on the lam?!

Alex. I can help you, but, I mean, I have kids here.

Stop it.

I went down there. I talked to the D.A.

I have to advise you, Dr. Karev,

that talking to you without your lawyer present just isn't...

She's on her way.

Should we, uh, wait?

We should.

But... If you just want to tell me what it's about...

Wait! You can't just go in!

Mr. Kirby, I'm sorry.

Can I talk to you?

Have you... did you guys talk?

What are you doing?

I'm dropping the charges.

What? You can't do that.

Well, I am.

No, he's right. They're not your charges to drop.

They're the state's.

Really?

Really.

Okay, then...

If you put me on the stand, I'm gonna have to tell the truth.

We had a fight...

Both of us.

And I was just as much to blame.

I started it.

The only reason I let it get this far is, uh, pride, I guess.

I didn't want...

Anyway, you put me up there, I'll say that.

You're tanking this case.

Has something happened?

Has he threatened you? Absolutely not.

No, he's, uh... Great.

Deluca. This case is a slam dunk.

It's a slam freakin' dunk.

I'm sorry to waste your time.

Okay.

So, Andrew called off the trial? Yeah.

For you? Yeah.

Why? No clue.

Deluca.

Deluca, wait!

So, you called a meeting, and they ignored it?

How many attendings didn't show up?

A few?

Five?

The entire staff?

Well, it was mostly the department heads.

It was just their way of sending a message...

Oh, you're going to have to send a message right back.

I know that. I know.

I am handling this.

I know you are, Dr. Bailey.

But I am a dragon. I'm your dragon.

And you should feel free to unleash me, should you wish to.

Call me if you need backup.

I'm a dragon, too.

Dr. Reynolds, extension 2216. Dr. Reynolds...

Mnh!

Oh! Boy, am I glad to see you.

Mwah! Oh, I didn't expect you till tonight.

Well, I took an early flight to avoid a storm,

moved up a couple of bladder repairs.

Making hay while the sun shines.

Ah. Mm.

How are things here? Oh, fine.

I have a bowel resection later.

How are things with Dr. Minnick?

Good. Good.

You know, just the usual bumps in the road.

Mm-hmm. Good.

Well, I better get going, okay?

I'll see you tonight.

Metabolic panel showed slightly elevated AST and alt levels.

Ct showed no stones, but there was wall thickening.

Well, ct can miss gallstones,

especially if the gallbladder's opacified. Yeah.

In that case, the study of choice is ultrasound.

Oh, I get a star?

What did I do? Play nicely with others?

The stars are the surgeries I've chosen to teach in today.

Yours is first up, Dr. Grey.

No.

No?

No.

Okay. What is it? What's the excuse?

The surgery too delicate, too dangerous?

There is no excuse. Just no.

Let's go, s Edwards.

Hey. So, what's the fallout from last night?

So far, nothing.

Why? What have you heard?

Well, Minnick's car is here,

so that means she obviously wasn't fired.

You know what Minnick's car looks like?

So? That... that's not weird.

Hey, did you hear about Alex? No.

Yeah, Andrew told me.

Did he tell you why? No. He wouldn't say.

"Why" what? What's up with Karev?

He's not in jail. There's no trial.

Yeah, Andrew dropped all the charges. Really? Why?

Well, I don't know. We just said I don't... no idea.

Hey, what happened last night?

Do we have all the attendings with us?

Uh, well, hunt... I'm not sure where he stands yet.

Well, what about Riggs?

Uh, Riggs, we can ask after he's done talking to your mom.

Whenever he's done doing what?

Talking to your mother. My what?

Your mom, your mother, uh, the one that raised and fed you?

How could Riggs be talking to my mo... my mother is in Hawaii.

What is he talk... what are you... what is he talking about?

No, no, no. I met her at the coffee cart this morning.

She's really nice.

Why... why is no one making any sense?

Maggie, your mom is here.

My mother is here!

That's what I've...

Okay.

Mom!

Maggie!

What are you doing here?

What's going on? Are you okay?

What kind of welcome is that?

Let me look at you.

Where are your manners?

Introduce me to your friends.

Yeah, Pierce... manners.

Arizona and I are already old friends.

Oh, yes, yes. Mrs. Pierce and I go way back

to the coffee cart. Not "Mrs."

Diane. Diane.

But who is that?

Is he the one you like?

Mom! What? Look at him.

Ma, okay. Everyone, thank you. You can go now.

I r... go now.

Yeah, well, I'm... I have things to... yeah.

Lovely to meet you. Thanks. Bye.

Bye.

I just wanted to introduce myself, Diane.

Dr. Jackson Avery.

Oh, so you're the famous Jackson Avery.

Yes, and he is very busy, so...

Are we all set for 2:30? We are, yes.

What is happening at 2:30... What is happening?

Just a little consult.

Wait. What?! You're not getting plastic surgery?

It's not a dirty word, Pierce.

Mom, why?! Why would you do that? I don't know.

I might want to have a few things spruced up.

And you said Dr. Avery is the best.

She's right.

I'll see you this afternoon.

Mom, what is going on?

I just spoke to you two days ago.

You said nothing about this.

I knew you'd try to talk me out of it, so surprise!

Now give me the tour.

I've only seen this place on video chats.

Mom, I have surgery in 20 minutes.

I wish you had told me that you were coming.

It's okay.

Uh, I have my book.

Just put me somewhere,

and I can take care of myself.

Okay.

Wilson, what do we have?

Trauma 2.

1! Trauma 1.

I said, "what do we have?"

Oh, uh, uh, a patient...

A trauma patient in trauma 1.

Sorry. That's all I know.

Wilson, how many hours you been working? I'm fine.

You did a full shift before going to tri-county.

That was an all-nighter. Did you work yesterday?

I just need some coffee.

How many hours?

30... Something.

Okay. Go home. No, no, no, no! I'm okay. I'm okay.

No, you're not. And I'm not gonna risk you making a mistake

'cause of exhaustion.

Okay. I'm going.

Is that razor wire?

I'm staying.

Home, Wilson.
