Grey's Anatomy

Trauma is messy...

Chaotic.

Looking at a body that's been reduced to a bloody pulp...

It might seem difficult to know where to start.

Edwards, got a vomiter in bed five.

Rule out obstruction, please?

Yay!

- How we doing? - She's in all right shape,

but she's complaining of abdominal pains.

- Okay. - Kepner, what do you have?

MVC, bed three. Shepherd's doing a neuro consult,

but she just started complaining of stomach pain.

- Dr. Pierce! - Busy morning.

Yeah, when it rains.

Hey, can you go see chest pains in bed six, please?

- Got it. - Luckily,

some very clever person developed a protocol,

the ABCs... Airway, breathing, circulation.

20-something female carjacking victim...

Multiple lacs and contusions,

open tibia fracture, hypotensive and tachycardic.

This was a carjacking?

And a hell of a beating. Wilson, you're with me.

The ABCs keep your patient alive

so you can figure out how to tackle the rest of the mess.

If only all life's problems

could be solved with an intubation tube.

They took my car!

Shh, shh. They took my...

Shh, shh, shh, shh. What's your name?

Melissa. My car...

Melissa, I'm sure your car's fine.

We're gonna take care of you, okay?

Wilson, go see if anyone came in with her.

Okay.

I think you're fine, but I want to make sure.

- Let's do a head C.T. to be safe. - Right away.

Let's get an abdominal C.T., as well.

Dr. Grey, I have your... Our...

Ellis' journals.

- You went through them already? - Yeah, I've had them for a while.

Got a good sense of her as a surgeon,

if not as a person.

So, thank you.

- Sure. - Okay.

She still calls you "Dr. Grey"?

That's my name.

We should invite her over... For dinner.

Why?

- She's family. - Ish.

Dinner tomorrow night. It's what people do.

What people?

Dr. Hunt in trauma one needs an ortho consult.

On it.

April.

Hey, uh, I thought you were on the...

Yeah, your mom's flight got in early, so I brought her here.

Why would you do that?

- 'Cause she wanted to see you. - Wh...

I set her up in the attendings' lounge.

Just give me a page when you get a second.

- Uh, I... - Love you!

Sorry, uh, what was I saying?

This is where you've been staying?

I figured you'd gone to a hotel, or...

Yeah, well, Herman's been breathing down my neck day and night.

This is easier.

Plus, where I sleep is no longer any of your concern.

I didn't kick you out. I never said that you had to go.

No, no, you just made it very clear

that my being around you was suffocating.

Okay, well, have you told anyone?

- No. Have you? - No.

I... do you think that we should?

Can we just not... Yet?

Whatever you want.

I didn't want any of this.

I have rounds.

I'm saying you skipped breakfast.

Didn't have time!

Avery made me point person on the board's strategic planning meeting.

And I have consults.

Got to keep the trains running on time.

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah.

Ah. Mm.

You're my favorite resident.

Hey. You were looking for me?

Yes. Mr. Weaver here is...

Oh, Jeremy. Hi.

Yeah, he's complaining of chest pains.

EKG is fine except for a little LVH,

but his first troponin is within normal limits,

so I've ruled out a dissection,

but his belly is still a little tender.

- I'm fine, really. - Oh, well, let's see.

- Take it easy, Mr. Weaver. - Okay, see you later.

Okay.

Ow!

- Hurts there? - Yeah,

but it's... It's heartburn, I swear.

My wife made me come.

I mean, I should be at work, you know?

And I got to pick up my kid later.

Uh, Jeremy, have you eaten today?

Uh, coffee.

Oh, you skipped breakfast, too, huh?

Uh, oh, no, no, no, and then, uh, pancakes,

sausage, eggs, a couple of energy drinks.

I would've had more, but I've been having trouble swallowing lately.

Sounds like you did pretty well.

Well, you got to fuel up. You know, I got a lot of balls in the air!

Sorry.

Look, we're gonna admit you for observation.

- No, no, no, no, no, no. - And I'll try to make it quick, okay?

Um, add on LFTs, a second troponin,

and an abdominal C.T.

Uh, call me when you get the results.

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah.

Finish your doughnut.

Melissa works with us.

We do computer repair at Office Hub.

I found her on the way into work.

She was just laying there on the ground, not moving.

I thought she was dead!

Do you know anything about her family, anyone we can contact?

We don't really know her that well.

Wilson!

Uh, why don't you guys take a seat? I'll be right back.

She's crashing.

- You paged ortho? - Oh, whoa!

Yeah, you're gonna have to wait. Belly's expanding

even though I cross-clamped the aorta.

Should we book an O.R.?

Yeah, but she's not gonna make it to an O.R. with this much blood in the belly.

We're gonna need to do an emergency laparotomy.

Uh, right now? Here?

Wilson, we're gonna need gauze, laps,

whatever we have to pack this abdomen.

You sure you want to do this?

I'm sure we don't have a choice.

Okay.

Oh!

Grey's Anatomy 11x06 Don't Let's Start

All right, Wilson. Liver's intact.

Let's look at the retroperitoneum.

Oh, God, it's the I.V.C.

Okay, put some pressure on it.

Satinsky, please. Suction ready.

All right, fracture's all cleaned out for now.

- I'll do the repair tomorrow. - Have we found out

- anything about this girl? - No purse, no I.D.

And we know she worked at the Office Hub,

but the only emergency contact they had was her own number.

Actually, we know something else.

She's a veteran.

Yeah, she has an operation Iraqi freedom tattoo, 2011-2012.

I've been examining a lot of vets lately, thanks to you.

Good eye, Torres.

The injury's exposed. 4-0 prolene.

This should never have happened to her.

It shouldn't have happened to anyone.

More suction, please.

Hi, mom!

Ah!

Oh, look at... Oh, look at you!

Oh!

How was your flight?

Oh, not as good as my ride over.

My chauffeur has the prettiest eyes.

- Mom! - Oh, uh, thank you?

Oh, look, I almost forgot.

Look what I found in the airport gift shop...

Zoo animal decals from the Seattle zoo!

I thought they'd be adorable on the nursery wall,

and they'll go with whatever color

you're planning on painting,

which I assume is gender neutral.

Oh, you know, actually, we haven't...

We haven't really had time to think about colors.

Mnh-mnh.

Oh, you two and work... Busy, busy, busy!

Speaking of which, um, the E.R. is a madhouse.

- Oh, yeah. - I probably...

I just need to get back down there,

but I promise I will try to make it back for dinner.

Oh, dinner?

Mom... what?

I thought maybe you could take off the afternoon.

We could shop for paint samples for the nursery

and open a baby registry.

- Mrs. Frye at church asks over... - Mom, you know what I do for a living.

I don't know why you thought I could just take all afternoon off to...

You know what? I have a super-light day,

so I can... I can do all of... All of those things.

Jackson, you d... You don't have to do that.

It's not a problem.

It'll be fun!

Yes, it will.

We've got this.

Guys, I don't want to sound like a jerk,
