Émission TV: Grey's Anatomy - 21x11
When a patient receives a terminal diagnosis, a clock starts.
In an instant, the future becomes finite.
Doctors do their best to predict life expectancy based on median survival, the period of time after diagnosis when half of patients with the disease are still alive.
But statistics can't tell you if you'll host Thanksgiving dinner...
...
or attend your grandkids' recital.
Evynn has just lost her damn mind.
Who the hell does she think she is?
Your protégé.
This is not the time for you to throw that up in my face.
Read the room.
I need to inform the transplant committee.
Alzheimer's is not a contraindication to transplant.
I understand that, but they approved her under false pretenses.
They thought the dementia was encephalopathy.
Okay.
Uh, Tasha's being moved back to her room, and we've connected the liver to a normothermic perfusion machine.
Buys us some time to figure this out, but not much.
I mean, you must be able to explain the situation to the transplant committee, yes?
I vouched for Tasha once.
I can't do it again.
Well, they factor in life expectancy as well.
Yes, of course I know that.
Someone without Alzheimer's would live much longer with that liver.
I'm sorry, we can't assume that.
I mean, people are getting it earlier and earlier, especially women.
You think they should all be denied life-saving transplants?
I don't.
Meredith's right.
We'll tell the committee.
They deserve to know.
I'll tell them myself.
You're left to wonder, how is it possible to feel alive when science tells you you're dying?
Sunny-side up, right?
Uh, yes, please.
Wow.
Someone is really trying to get ahold of you.
It's Dave.
He's having a hard time with the breakup.
I honestly feel bad for him.
I know what it's like to lose you.
Morning.
Oh, something smells good.
Pancakes and eggs.
Oh, man, you can stay as long as you like.
You don't live here.
Molly?
Molly!
She's seizing.
We got you, Molly.

Catherine told me to make my board presentation engaging.
It's about the hospital's endowment.
My eyes glaze over just thinking about it.
Who's that?
Nora Young.
Said she's been doing the cardio exercises you gave her, and she was able to jog a full mile today.
Hmm.
Good for her.
I wish all of my patients were that diligent about their recovery.
Go, Union!
Hurry, let's go this way!
Oh, here we go.
Washington Union scavenger hunts.
Every year, lacerations, broken bones...
Memories that last a lifetime, bonds that can't be broken.
Third place finishes that still sting?
We were robbed.
There must be a few items on the list in the hospital this year.
Mmm.
So college students are here to steal stuff.
Hey, they're here to win.
Or cause me a security nightmare.
Wha...
Help!
Help!
Come on, let's go.
Yeah.
She needs help.
Yeah, she just collapsed.
Does she have any medical conditions?
I don't think so.
Okay, let's get her...
Oh!
Security!
We're gonna need a gurney.
Yeah.
Feeling better.
Gotta go.
Hey...
I guess my presentation's gonna have to wait.
Y'all got this!
Bailey, you wanted to see me?
What's the look?
Am I in trouble?
I am reading resident evaluations.
Was I supposed to turn something in?
No.
Uh, these are specific to the resident who is still in a trial period.
The one I am married to.
Oh.
From the look on your face, I take it they're not what you'd hoped.
I've been trying to stay out of his way, so I haven't supervised him directly, and therefore, don't know how to evaluate his evaluations.
Are you asking for my advice?
So Ben is supposed to be on your service.
I wanted to ask if we can swap residents today.
Oh.
Oh, yes.
Of course.
Yes.
Yes.
Okay.
Did you not want him on your service?
I do not have good advice about working with family.
No.
No. "
Critical incision along the pericardium to release the tamponade"...
Rob's hosting intern trivia tonight at Joe's.
You wanna go?
Uh, will we have to be on the same team?
I am really good at trivia.
I will mop the floor with the other teams.
Yeah.
Some of the guys still don't talk to me after last time.
Oh.
Millin?
Um, I'm on cardio all day, and then I am going home.
Warren, you're on Shepherd's service, right?
I was...
Uh...
I have a friend who needs a neuro consult.
Well, page neurology.
I was hoping you could have Shepherd take a look at her.
She had a grand mal seizure this morning.
Griffith, um, Dr.
Marsh needs an intern upstairs to monitor a transplant patient.
Warren, you're on my service now.
And, Adams, you are with Shepherd.
That's a nice surprise.
Maybe we can grab lunch or something?
I am not your wife today.
I am your attending.
All right then.
Tell me where you need me.
I can't ask my aunt to squeeze Molly in today.
Her schedule's insane.
Can't you just go to the ER?
But you're on neurosurgery.
I...
You can do a workup yourself.
I can help.
If we get caught, I'm throwing you under the bus.
Hi, Lisa, I'm Dr.
Bailey.
This is Dr.
Warren.
Go ahead.
Oh, uh, Lisa Saito, 63, admitted for jaundice and abdominal pain from acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.
Mm-hmm.
Do you mind if we examine you?
Oh, please.
Doc...
I've been taking acetaminophen for years.
I'm-I'm a high school librarian, so shelving books does a number on my back.
Sure it's not the high school students hurting your back?
I've got one that hurts mine.
No, they're keeping me young.
Yesterday, I helped a sophomore with her biography on Jackie O.
And then I led a student podcasting club.
Yeah, we're, uh, cracking a cold case this season.
Well, sounds like rewarding work.
Take a deep breath for me.
Oh...
I wish my back loved it as much as I do.
We were just moving some encyclopedias back into storage.
No one uses them anymore.
I went and bought some extra-strength caplets for the extra pain.
Uh, I didn't realize that the doses were different.
Uh, it's an easy mistake.
So we are giving you medicine to prevent more damage to the liver, and we'll monitor you and see if it recovers.
What if it doesn't?
Let's not worry about that yet.
Okay, you can lay back now.
Okay.
All right.
All right, Dr.
Warren.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, let's get a repeat acetaminophen level, ALT, AST, potassium...
You can just say CMP.
And INR.
Order exactly what I asked for and get a rush on the labs.
Tasha Lawson, 41, diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis and Alzheimer's disease.
Status post-stent for biliary stricture.
On lactulose for liver failure while waiting for a transplant.
I can't stay.
I have to go to class.
Have you seen my bag?
Where are my things?
Yo, yo, yo.
T.
T.
T.
What's going...
It's okay.
We rescheduled it.
We can stay.
Are you sure?
Yes, I promise.
Just breathe.
I'll be right back, okay?
Okay.
Does Dr.
Fox know there's a liver in a box somewhere that could save my wife's life?
She knows.
She hasn't responded to my texts.
Where is she?
Where is she?
She's pretty upset on how you handled all of this.
I didn't have a choice.
We're talking about my wife's life here.
Withholding medical history is unfair to other people on the transplant list.
What about Alzheimer's is fair?
Well, look, as Tasha's transplant surgeon, I'm gonna strongly recommend to the committee that we proceed.
Thank you.
At least one of you is fighting for your patient.
Meredith.
Hey, Meredith.
Wait.
Who are you?
Visitors.
Uh, we're just, uh, looking for this.
Okay.
I know what you're doing.
I just followed you into a closet.
I have no idea what I'm doing.
When you look at Tasha, you see a possible future me.
I don't need saving.
Okay.
First of all, not everything is about you.
And have you considered, even for a second, that someone may have gotten this wrong?
She is 41 years old.
That doesn't mean it isn't Alzheimer's.
Okay, that's fine.
All I'm saying is, let's do our own neuro workup before she's denied life-saving treatment based on another hospital's diagnosis.
I wanna talk to Shepherd.
You don't trust that I know what this looks like?
This is my life's work.
Yeah, and transplants are mine.
Okay.
Well, see, the infection is spreading to the mediastinum.
Mm-hmm.
What's the plan?
Broad-spectrum antibiotics and blood cultures.
Yes, good.
Place the order. "
Do not allow unauthorized persons into secure areas."
Must be the scavenger hunt.
What an epic waste of time.
Okay, you didn't do stupid stuff like that in college?
Organized forced fun, not my thing. "
Work hard, play harder."
That was my motto.
My motto was "Work hard so you don't have to live with your hippie parents until you're 30."
Crap, security!
Cameron, hide in here.
Oh, hey, hey.
This thing's on.
Cameron!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God.
We need help in here!
Wait, don't turn it off until we can brace him.
Page trauma right now.
Stay calm.
I got you.
Push the magnet stop.
Please, help him!
Oh.
Oh.
Let's lay him down.
Nice and easy.
We need a C-collar, now.
What just happened?
Let's take care of your friend, and then we'll go over physics 101.
What's your name?
Not Teddy Altman.
It's Cameron.
Andrea, are you hurt?
I'm fine.
I'm worried about you.
Any neck pain, Cameron?
Oh, no, my left side hurts and my chest.
This is what you call fun?
What do we got?
He brought a metal IV pole into the MRI room.
The magnet pulled in the pole and pinned him at the midline.
Abdominal bruising.
Let's get him to a trauma room for an exam.
On my count, ready?
One.
Two.
Three.
Is he gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me.
You have to go on.
Finish the hunt.
Is there some kind of big cash prize or something?
Just pride and glory.
Wait.
You went to Washington Union?
Yeah.
Third place in my senior year.
The last clue. "
Find and retrieve the identifier for something that looks like itself but no longer is."
Go.
Okay.
Let's go.
Okay.
Dev, let's go this way.
Okay.
I'm gonna go give security a heads up on that.
But first, can you inform CT that we'll likely head there right after trauma?
Sure, Dr.
Hunt.
Doesn't hurt to give them a little head start, right?
You're sure we won't get in trouble?
Oh, we might, but you'll be fine.
Don't worry about it.
Let me help you here.
Oh.
There you go.
Hi, I'm Dr.
Kwan.
Molly.
Yeah.
I'm gonna jump ahead.
Uh, Molly, can you tell me about your seizures?
Um, I've had them since the accident, a little over four years.
You've had grand mal seizures for four years?
On and off.
Some meds work for a while, but eventually they stop.
Right now I'm on phenytoin, but I guess that's not working anymore either.
I'm so sorry.
I had no idea.
Okay, we'll run an EEG and see if we can classify your seizure activity and go from there, all right?
Between her multiple scans, mental status exam, and previous clinical findings and tests, I have no reason to say it's anything other than Alzheimer's.
Mmm.
Tasha is the youngest person I've seen with it.
It happens.
Yeah, it shouldn't.
No, but younger patients do hold clues to the disease that we didn't even know existed.
Maybe we will find some.
If Meredith and I ever retain funding again.
Yes.
Okay, thank you for the consult.
I appreciate it.
A scavenger hunt kid stole my badge and I haven't had time to get a new one.
Thank you.
Cass?
What are you doing here, and how did you get in here?
I kept this from when I filled in here.
Don't tell the Chief.
I think she'd give you a pass.
I had the day off and thought, "Where can I go for harsh lighting and free coffee?"
David's getting a colonoscopy, which is its own kind of scavenger hunt.
Well, I hope his is less eventful than the one I'm dealing with.
Between kids stealing stuff and crashing into MRI machines, somehow I have to find the time to make a slideshow about the hospital's endowment.
I did one last week for my sixth grader's biology class on metamorphosis.
Got an A-plus.
Congrats.
You wanna make mine?
Sure, I love slideshows.
I was joking.
I'm not.
Catch me up to speed.
I'll make you the best one you've ever seen.
Really?
Thank you so much.
You-you can work from my office.
The coffee's so much better.
Can we use your badge?
Keep it.
You need it more than I do.
Uh, Lisa's labs are up.
Oh.
No, no, no.
I ordered exactly what you asked.
Look, her transaminases quadrupled.
Yeah.
Oh, and her INR doubled from her last lab draw.
Damn it.
I don't want this!
Calm down, Ms.
Saito, I'm just trying to help you.
I was just trying to give her mucomyst.
I don't want that.
Get it away from me.
What are you doing here?
Well, we're trying to help you, Lisa.
No.
Why are you keeping me right now?
No, no.
I have to go.
I need to go!
I...
She's encephalopathic.
That happened fast.
Okay, so we need to get her to the ICU.
Start her on IV mucomyst.
Uh, consult nephrology for possible dialysis.
Oh!
And get UNOS on my phone.
Okay.
Okay.
You're okay.
Uh-huh.
Yes, status 1A.
Y-Y-Yes.
Oh.
Okay...
Yes, we're interested.
Yes, thank you.
UNOS says there's a possible match for Lisa.
Now?
No, in this hospital.
She should go to Vegas with those odds.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, the liver isn't hers yet.
There's still some deliberating...
Get her chart and tell Marsh.
Will do.
Meredith.
Hi.
Hey, I heard that you and Marsh were here.
I was hoping to speak to him about a liver transplant.
We're still waiting for the committee to decide whether to allocate the liver to another patient.
Excuse me?
You're talking about Catherine's friend who needs the liver transplant?
No.
Oh, you...
You know...
Yeah, cancel Vegas.
She may not get it.
There was a big mix-up with her medical history.
The committee should make their decision soon.
They're meeting now.
Lisa needs that liver.
Should we talk to the committee?
About Grey's patient who's Catherine Fox's friend?
No, that is not our business.
It's the committee's decision.
You get Lisa settled in the ICU.
Well, am I broken beyond repair?
Uh, there's definitely increased delta wave activity, and it looks like sharp wave complexes in the region.
Even when I'm not seizing?
Well, it's like an earthquake.
There's seismic activity all the time, but...
...
you only feel the big ones.
So what do we do about it?
Uh, we could try adjusting your medication.
Hmm.
We should talk to her neurologist first.
You're supposed to be updating my post-op notes.
And I don't know where you're supposed to be, but it is definitely not here.
Are you running an EEG?
This is Molly.
She had a grand mal seizure this morning.
Hi.
Is she a patient?
Who is her doctor?
Uh...
We are.
Both of you, follow me.
Now.
It's okay.
This is my department.
You are interns.
Do you know what this looks like?
I'm sorry.
We just thought...
When you sneak patients in, put them in the farthest room from the nurses' station, otherwise you are begging to be caught.
Yeah.
We'll be more careful next time.
Uh, he means there won't be a next time.
I thought you were slammed today.
Do you want my help or not?
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh, still no decision about the liver?
No, not yet.
No.
If they don't decide soon, the liver won't be viable anymore, and then no one's gonna get it.
What...
Oh.
I told you to leave that alone.
I just volunteered to answer any questions the committee might have about Lisa's case.
You just volunteered.
Yeah.
Anything?
No, we're still waiting.
Warren might know something.
Apparently he was just speaking with them.
I'm sorry, how did you know the committee was meeting?
Well, I...
I told them.
It's not exactly a secret.
The liver...
...
will go to Lisa Saito.
What?
Okay...
Sorry.
You know what?
I just don't get it.
You've made a career out of finding your ways around protocols.
I don't get it.
It was the ethical thing to do.
Okay, well then you can go tell Evynn her wife's not getting the liver.
Hey.
How's he doing?
Uh, still waiting on the scans, and I'm trying to crack this clue. "
The identifier is something that looks like itself but no longer is."
A portable X-ray machine?
You think the people that made these clues know there's a portable X-ray machine?
My sophomore year there was a pleur-evac on the list.
Millin, what do you think?
Has anyone seen Andrea?
She really wants to win this thing.
Glad she has goals, and I don't play.
The scans are up.
Hmm.
Yeah, he has a grade three splenic lac with active extrava.
Hemodynamically stable.
All right, Millin, let's get him to the IR suite to embolize.
All right.
Looks like itself but no longer is.
An ID badge.
No, that's too easy.
Right?
That liver was hers.
She was on the OR table.
Because you didn't tell us all the information.
I also didn't tell you she loves animal crackers, the old-school kind in the box with the handle.
Or that she's seen every episode of Gossip Girl at least twice.
Or that she talked to her dad every night on the way home until she had to stop working because of the Alzheimer's.
I understand why you're upset.
I don't think you do.
You're so focused on your research, you've forgotten about the people living with it.
That's not true.
You helped hand her a death sentence.
Evynn, these lights are hurting my eyes.
When are we going home?
Soon, babe.
Soon.
You said we were gonna go home soon already.
I don't wanna be here anymore.
Me either.
You do know it wasn't my decision?
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Any news from the team?
I didn't feel the need to check.
So, Cameron, the risks of the embolization include bleeding, infection and kidney damage.
Signed.
And we can also call your girlfriend and give her an update if you'd like.
Andrea?
She's just my roommate.
Is there a reason you thought she was my girlfriend?
I didn't seem, like, in love with her or something, did I?
I-I was really focusing on your injuries.
Oh, it's obvious, isn't it?
Crap.
This is bad.
Do you think she knows?
The only way to know for sure is to tell her.
Is it?
She's the roommate, friend.
You know, it's kind of risky.
You and Altman were friends before you got together, right?
Yeah, we were friends for 20 years before we got together.
That's my entire life.
I don't wanna wait that long.
You could always join the rest of us who think that love sucks.
Take your shot, man.
Just be prepared for it to, you know, not go your way.
I'm gonna do it.
Can I borrow your phone?
No.
Oh, hey.
Don't move.
All right.
Hey.
I'll tell you what, we'll find Andrea.
We'll bring her to you before the procedure, okay?
Okay.
Be right back.
Oh, don't mind me.
Just saving your ass.
Oh, I owe you, seriously.
Feel free to gift me a spa day.
You still swamped?
Yeah.
The...
the kid who crashed into the MRI needs surgery.
I can't decide if I'm more upset about that or the fact that I am currently out an MRI machine until we pay $50,000 in repairs.
They had to push the red button.
I have always wanted to push that button.
How is it that you are always here when this hospital is falling apart?
I've seen hospitals that are falling apart.
I work in one of them.
This place is great.
Flattery will get you two spa days.
I only need the one.
You should give yourself the other one.
You deserve it.
It's, um, been a little quiet.
I am gonna go check on security.
Thank you again.
It's my pleasure.
How do you know Molly?
I'll let Kwan take this one.
We were engaged.
Now...
I don't know.
Molly, you did great.
Why don't you go ahead and get her out?
Yeah.
All right, you see how it is lighting up in the hippocampus?
That is temporal lobe epilepsy.
Can you help her?
Oh, I can try.
It doesn't always work.
Let's go.
Molly, the focus of your seizure activity is coming from the hippocampus.
That coupled with your developed tolerance to drugs makes me think that surgery is your best bet.
Deep brain stimulation?
I've had quite a bit of success with DBS in epilepsy patients.
I'm-I'm sorry.
Um...
I'm not interested.
I don't want any more surgeries.
You'd rather live with debilitating seizures?
Well, I have been living with them for years.
And yes, they can be terrifying, but you don't know what it's like to have entire years of your life just disappear.
And I can't start over.
I can't.
That's not going to happen.
Dr.
Kwan.
Molly, You can't let your fears get in the way of your future.
Dr.
Kwan, why don't you wait outside?
We will finish with Molly.
I'm not asking.
Bailey, just making sure you saw the graft on the...
on the donor's CT.
Uh, the distance between the portal vein and IVC.
Yeah, I saw it.
Okay, good.
I'm sorry that your patient isn't getting a liver.
No, no, no.
You did nothing wrong.
Good luck with Lisa's transplant.
Mkay.
Griffith, did you finish Tasha's discharge papers?
I need to go over them with Evynn, but I think she went to the cafeteria.
So, uh, Tasha doesn't know?
Tasha kept saying she went to lunch with Reggie.
Extrapolated the rest.
And who's Reggie?
No idea.
It could be you.
Yes.
Dr.
Marsh, how is Dr.
Grey's research going?
They're looking for more funding.
Really hope they find it.
Yeah.
My grandmother has Alzheimer's.
I'm sorry.
How advanced is she?
Just moved her into a memory care facility.
Does she like it?
She has a friend named Isaac.
She loves the coffee cake.
Yeah, she's happy.
That could change any day, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
Thank you.
I'll print Tasha's paperwork.
Okay.
Hey, did Millin respond to your page?
Not yet.
I feel nauseous.
Cam, are you okay?
He is in a lot of pain.
Do I have to be here for this?
I wanna die.
Dev, can you leave?
Uh, where am I supposed to go?
Fine.
Just turn around.
You want me to...
Yeah.
I'm in love with you.
I have been in love with you from the moment we met, carrying your stupid Harry Styles posters into the dorms.
I wanna be with you.
And I don't care that you're smashing Dev...
Dude.
Cameron.
He doesn't wanna be your boyfriend, Andrea.
And I want everything with you.
I want...
Cam.
Cam, are you okay?
He's getting hypotensive.
Change of plan.
Cameron!
Is he gonna be okay?
Take him straight to the OR.
What's happening?
Okay, let's move.
Cameron!
Oh, right.
Ah.
Slideshow is done, and it is pretty kick-ass if I do say so myself.
I can't thank you enough.
I may finally get some sleep tonight.
It was fun.
The hospital endowment is a surprisingly interesting topic.
Said no one ever.
You check out the slideshow and then decide.
I need to go find my husband.
They've pushed his colonoscopy till the end of the day.
He is probably bribing nurses for food, and I would rather not lose my house over a banana nut muffin.
Hey, um, how about, uh, Saturday for the spa day?
Together?
I don't think that's a good idea.
No?
I'm trying to respect your boundaries.
It's okay.
When you figure it out, you let me know.
Pressures are still soft.
Let's hang two units of blood.
Looks like the bleeding is isolated to the spleen.
Let's prepare to remove it.
Right angle and tie, please.
Okay, blood pressure's picking up.
Okay.
Millin, more suction.
Mm-hmm.
Has anyone ever died on this scavenger hunt?
Uh, not that I know of.
I think if people were dying, they'd cancel it.
Let's not give 'em a reason to.
Okay?
At least they won't cancel it over a broken heart.
We really steered him wrong.
Had I known she was sleeping with the other guy...
They're doomed.
It would have been a lot easier if he just kept his mouth shut.
Removing the spleen.
Rest in peace, spleen.
Time of death...
16:31.
Cause of death...
sheer stupidity.
See?
You can have fun.
What?
Oh.
I think I just figured out the scavenger hunt clue.
Millin, welcome to the party.
Glad to have you.
But I'm gonna need to know what it is.
Hey, how'd it go with Shepherd?
Where did you leave things?
Shepherd doesn't want me discussing the case with you.
Bro.
Molly's gonna talk to her neurologist about switching medication.
I thought we established her epilepsy is refractory to meds.
Yeah, but she doesn't wanna do surgery, so the only other option is to hope that another drug will work.
And you told her how irresponsible that is?
No, I don't coerce patients into getting surgery.
She's not a patient.
She's the love of my life.
Have you told her that?
It's none of your business.
Brain surgery is terrifying.
I wouldn't wanna do it if I didn't know who was waiting on the other side.
You're welcome, by the way.
Okay, I'm here.
Okay, I-I-I know the committee's already made its decision, but I think I have a plan.
My patient's on the table.
Yes, okay.
And she will get a transplant, but so can Tasha.
We do a split liver transplant.
Tasha would get two-thirds of the liver, and Lisa would get the remaining third.
A third of the liver can't nearly be enough to regenerate and function.
It doesn't need to regenerate.
It will act as a bridge.
Lisa's liver failure is reversible.
It just needs time to heal on its own.
The graft will allow that to happen.
It could save Lisa from having to take immunosuppressants for the rest of her life.
Yes, it would.
And you did say that the liver was too big for Tasha.
So, the split is a great fix.
Yes.
We do that preemptively, we save two lives.
It's a win-win.
Well, what the hell are we waiting for?
Let's go give everybody livers.
You wanna tell Evynn the good news?
Let's go do it together.
Her post-op ultrasound looks great.
We should be able to extubate her soon.
Oh, that's good.
Evynn's waiting for an update, so I'm gonna let her know.
Um...
You know I...
I didn't agree with what she did, but I understand it.
She was in a tough spot.
She did what she thought was best, given the circumstances.
And I know you did too.
Thanks.
Are we supposed to be down here?
Now you care about the rules?
Well, it's dead bodies, so, yeah.
Dead bodies or...
something that looks like itself but no longer is.
We're supposed to bring back a body?
What?
No.
No.
You're...
You're supposed to bring back the identifier.
Toe tag.
Yes!
Wow.
You're really smart.
Yeah, I know.
You know what this means, right?
No one else is gonna be able to get in the morgue.
We did it!
Hey, hey, hey, you're surrounded by the deceased.
Show a little respect.
I'm so sorry.
Sorry.
Get out of here before we get caught.
Go, go, go.
Her vitals look good.
Post-op labs are reassuring.
Yeah, things...
worked out today.
Mm-hmm.
But I need to tell you...
You really don't.
Altman's evaluation came in.
Yeah.
Ben, you are still in a trial period, so can you just stay in your lane?
Are you asking as my boss or as my wife?
What does it matter?
Well, if it's my boss, then, okay.
But if it's my wife, then I'm gonna be honest.
If I can help someone, I'm gonna do it.
Now, I am not a 20-something-year-old intern with no experience.
I am going to do what is best and hope my boss can see that.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I gotta finish rounds.
Oh, my...
Welcome back.
Surgery went great.
We're gonna have you on your feet in a couple of days.
Just do me a favor.
Avoid giant magnets, okay?
I don't think that'll be a problem.
Can I come in?
He just woke up.
He's not ready for...
Can we talk?
Okay.
I said everything I have to say.
You know how you don't have just one jacket?
You have a raincoat, a heavy coat for when it's really cold, a light trench for spring.
I only have one jacket.
Okay.
Well, I have a lot.
He just had major surgery.
If this isn't urgent...
I'll get to the point.
You make me laugh harder than anybody else.
I need that in my life.
But I also need Dev, who makes me feel smart, and Dean, who makes me feel worldly.
There's a Dean?
I'm 21.
I'm not ready to settle down.
But you are my best friend.
And I hope I didn't ruin that.
I make you laugh the hardest?
Don't get cocky.
Hey, get a little cocky.
We won the scavenger hunt.
Holy crap.
We won?
I mean, you won?
That's...
Congratulations.
I mean, that...
You're gonna have that forever.
Don't get up.
I'm just gonna check her JP drain.
It'll just take me a minute.
She has good days and bad days, but every second I get to spend with her is a gift, so thank you.
My mother had Alzheimer's, so I know the hell you're living in.
I'm sorry if I implied otherwise.
Everything looks good.
You know, my research is always about the people.
I never forget that.
Understood.
Is she still not speaking to you?
She might not ever again.
Oh, she will.
But it just may take her a while.
What makes you so sure?
She told me the two of you are like family.
Reconciling family is very important to her.
She just needs a minute, maybe.
She'll come around.
Take care.
Hey, you want a ride?
No, I am going out tonight.
There's a lot of people out there having fun, and I wanna be one of them.
I'll be at Joe's if you wanna join.
Hard day?
You could say that.
You wanna go to Joe's and talk about it?
I have a bid whist date.
Your...
Your grandma?
Yeah, haven't seen her in a while.
You should go get a drink.
But what if I'd rather play bid whist?
Seriously?
You had a hard day.
I wanna be there for you.
Both of you.
Thank you.
Plus, when you're tired, you're easier to beat at cards.
That is the only way you can beat me.
Oh.
Before you drove away that night, I asked if you wanted to cancel the wedding, and you said you needed to think. "
Wait for me," you said.
I am still waiting for you, Molly.
As long as it takes, whatever it takes, I'll wait.
And I'm sorry I tried to pressure you into surgery, but I just...
I just don't wanna see you suffer anymore.
I've been doing some research.
And did you know that there are experimental surgeries for amnesiacs to regain their memories?
What does that have to do with your seizures?
Well, do you think Dr.
Shepherd would try it?
If I get the seizure surgery, my brain will be open anyway.
You don't want a standard procedure, but you'll let Shepherd experiment on your brain?
I know, I know.
It sounds like science fiction, but more than stopping my seizures, more than anything, I want to remember you.
So, if Dr.
Shepherd will try to get my memories back...
I'll do the surgery.
After a terminal diagnosis, it's hard to trust the good days, when every second, the clock is counting down.
We just got new labs in for Tasha.
Okay, her lactate is coming down.
That's promising.
Well, she still has Alzheimer's.
That won't get easier.
No.
Listen, I didn't see you in Tasha.
You don't have to explain.
No, no, no, I want to.
I, um...
I...
I saw myself in Evynn.
Yeah.
Look, you just gotta know that if I were in her position, I wouldn't stop fighting for you.
I wouldn't.
I wouldn't either.
I can't imagine my life without you.
Same.
I think we just agreed on something.
Yeah.
But what if you stopped fixating on what you will lose, rather than what you already have?
Hey.
Hey.
Listen, I...
I need to tell you something.
That's ominous.
The last time she was at the hospital, Nora tried to kiss me.
I didn't wanna tell you because nothing happened.
I pulled away.
And I didn't want you to get upset for no reason.
And she has texted me a couple times other than this morning, and it started to feel dishonest.
And I never wanna lie to you.
Thank you.
I also wanna be honest with you.
I bumped into Cass today.
So, I...
I think...
I think I might be attracted to her.
Well...
What does that mean?
I don't...
I don't know.
I mean...
I love you.
And I love you.
What's gonna happen with us?
I don't know.
Can you take this moment, just this moment, and breathe it in?

In an instant, the future becomes finite.
Doctors do their best to predict life expectancy based on median survival, the period of time after diagnosis when half of patients with the disease are still alive.
But statistics can't tell you if you'll host Thanksgiving dinner...
...
or attend your grandkids' recital.
Evynn has just lost her damn mind.
Who the hell does she think she is?
Your protégé.
This is not the time for you to throw that up in my face.
Read the room.
I need to inform the transplant committee.
Alzheimer's is not a contraindication to transplant.
I understand that, but they approved her under false pretenses.
They thought the dementia was encephalopathy.
Okay.
Uh, Tasha's being moved back to her room, and we've connected the liver to a normothermic perfusion machine.
Buys us some time to figure this out, but not much.
I mean, you must be able to explain the situation to the transplant committee, yes?
I vouched for Tasha once.
I can't do it again.
Well, they factor in life expectancy as well.
Yes, of course I know that.
Someone without Alzheimer's would live much longer with that liver.
I'm sorry, we can't assume that.
I mean, people are getting it earlier and earlier, especially women.
You think they should all be denied life-saving transplants?
I don't.
Meredith's right.
We'll tell the committee.
They deserve to know.
I'll tell them myself.
You're left to wonder, how is it possible to feel alive when science tells you you're dying?
Sunny-side up, right?
Uh, yes, please.
Wow.
Someone is really trying to get ahold of you.
It's Dave.
He's having a hard time with the breakup.
I honestly feel bad for him.
I know what it's like to lose you.
Morning.
Oh, something smells good.
Pancakes and eggs.
Oh, man, you can stay as long as you like.
You don't live here.
Molly?
Molly!
She's seizing.
We got you, Molly.

Catherine told me to make my board presentation engaging.
It's about the hospital's endowment.
My eyes glaze over just thinking about it.
Who's that?
Nora Young.
Said she's been doing the cardio exercises you gave her, and she was able to jog a full mile today.
Hmm.
Good for her.
I wish all of my patients were that diligent about their recovery.
Go, Union!
Hurry, let's go this way!
Oh, here we go.
Washington Union scavenger hunts.
Every year, lacerations, broken bones...
Memories that last a lifetime, bonds that can't be broken.
Third place finishes that still sting?
We were robbed.
There must be a few items on the list in the hospital this year.
Mmm.
So college students are here to steal stuff.
Hey, they're here to win.
Or cause me a security nightmare.
Wha...
Help!
Help!
Come on, let's go.
Yeah.
She needs help.
Yeah, she just collapsed.
Does she have any medical conditions?
I don't think so.
Okay, let's get her...
Oh!
Security!
We're gonna need a gurney.
Yeah.
Feeling better.
Gotta go.
Hey...
I guess my presentation's gonna have to wait.
Y'all got this!
Bailey, you wanted to see me?
What's the look?
Am I in trouble?
I am reading resident evaluations.
Was I supposed to turn something in?
No.
Uh, these are specific to the resident who is still in a trial period.
The one I am married to.
Oh.
From the look on your face, I take it they're not what you'd hoped.
I've been trying to stay out of his way, so I haven't supervised him directly, and therefore, don't know how to evaluate his evaluations.
Are you asking for my advice?
So Ben is supposed to be on your service.
I wanted to ask if we can swap residents today.
Oh.
Oh, yes.
Of course.
Yes.
Yes.
Okay.
Did you not want him on your service?
I do not have good advice about working with family.
No.
No. "
Critical incision along the pericardium to release the tamponade"...
Rob's hosting intern trivia tonight at Joe's.
You wanna go?
Uh, will we have to be on the same team?
I am really good at trivia.
I will mop the floor with the other teams.
Yeah.
Some of the guys still don't talk to me after last time.
Oh.
Millin?
Um, I'm on cardio all day, and then I am going home.
Warren, you're on Shepherd's service, right?
I was...
Uh...
I have a friend who needs a neuro consult.
Well, page neurology.
I was hoping you could have Shepherd take a look at her.
She had a grand mal seizure this morning.
Griffith, um, Dr.
Marsh needs an intern upstairs to monitor a transplant patient.
Warren, you're on my service now.
And, Adams, you are with Shepherd.
That's a nice surprise.
Maybe we can grab lunch or something?
I am not your wife today.
I am your attending.
All right then.
Tell me where you need me.
I can't ask my aunt to squeeze Molly in today.
Her schedule's insane.
Can't you just go to the ER?
But you're on neurosurgery.
I...
You can do a workup yourself.
I can help.
If we get caught, I'm throwing you under the bus.
Hi, Lisa, I'm Dr.
Bailey.
This is Dr.
Warren.
Go ahead.
Oh, uh, Lisa Saito, 63, admitted for jaundice and abdominal pain from acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.
Mm-hmm.
Do you mind if we examine you?
Oh, please.
Doc...
I've been taking acetaminophen for years.
I'm-I'm a high school librarian, so shelving books does a number on my back.
Sure it's not the high school students hurting your back?
I've got one that hurts mine.
No, they're keeping me young.
Yesterday, I helped a sophomore with her biography on Jackie O.
And then I led a student podcasting club.
Yeah, we're, uh, cracking a cold case this season.
Well, sounds like rewarding work.
Take a deep breath for me.
Oh...
I wish my back loved it as much as I do.
We were just moving some encyclopedias back into storage.
No one uses them anymore.
I went and bought some extra-strength caplets for the extra pain.
Uh, I didn't realize that the doses were different.
Uh, it's an easy mistake.
So we are giving you medicine to prevent more damage to the liver, and we'll monitor you and see if it recovers.
What if it doesn't?
Let's not worry about that yet.
Okay, you can lay back now.
Okay.
All right.
All right, Dr.
Warren.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, let's get a repeat acetaminophen level, ALT, AST, potassium...
You can just say CMP.
And INR.
Order exactly what I asked for and get a rush on the labs.
Tasha Lawson, 41, diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis and Alzheimer's disease.
Status post-stent for biliary stricture.
On lactulose for liver failure while waiting for a transplant.
I can't stay.
I have to go to class.
Have you seen my bag?
Where are my things?
Yo, yo, yo.
T.
T.
T.
What's going...
It's okay.
We rescheduled it.
We can stay.
Are you sure?
Yes, I promise.
Just breathe.
I'll be right back, okay?
Okay.
Does Dr.
Fox know there's a liver in a box somewhere that could save my wife's life?
She knows.
She hasn't responded to my texts.
Where is she?
Where is she?
She's pretty upset on how you handled all of this.
I didn't have a choice.
We're talking about my wife's life here.
Withholding medical history is unfair to other people on the transplant list.
What about Alzheimer's is fair?
Well, look, as Tasha's transplant surgeon, I'm gonna strongly recommend to the committee that we proceed.
Thank you.
At least one of you is fighting for your patient.
Meredith.
Hey, Meredith.
Wait.
Who are you?
Visitors.
Uh, we're just, uh, looking for this.
Okay.
I know what you're doing.
I just followed you into a closet.
I have no idea what I'm doing.
When you look at Tasha, you see a possible future me.
I don't need saving.
Okay.
First of all, not everything is about you.
And have you considered, even for a second, that someone may have gotten this wrong?
She is 41 years old.
That doesn't mean it isn't Alzheimer's.
Okay, that's fine.
All I'm saying is, let's do our own neuro workup before she's denied life-saving treatment based on another hospital's diagnosis.
I wanna talk to Shepherd.
You don't trust that I know what this looks like?
This is my life's work.
Yeah, and transplants are mine.
Okay.
Well, see, the infection is spreading to the mediastinum.
Mm-hmm.
What's the plan?
Broad-spectrum antibiotics and blood cultures.
Yes, good.
Place the order. "
Do not allow unauthorized persons into secure areas."
Must be the scavenger hunt.
What an epic waste of time.
Okay, you didn't do stupid stuff like that in college?
Organized forced fun, not my thing. "
Work hard, play harder."
That was my motto.
My motto was "Work hard so you don't have to live with your hippie parents until you're 30."
Crap, security!
Cameron, hide in here.
Oh, hey, hey.
This thing's on.
Cameron!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God.
We need help in here!
Wait, don't turn it off until we can brace him.
Page trauma right now.
Stay calm.
I got you.
Push the magnet stop.
Please, help him!
Oh.
Oh.
Let's lay him down.
Nice and easy.
We need a C-collar, now.
What just happened?
Let's take care of your friend, and then we'll go over physics 101.
What's your name?
Not Teddy Altman.
It's Cameron.
Andrea, are you hurt?
I'm fine.
I'm worried about you.
Any neck pain, Cameron?
Oh, no, my left side hurts and my chest.
This is what you call fun?
What do we got?
He brought a metal IV pole into the MRI room.
The magnet pulled in the pole and pinned him at the midline.
Abdominal bruising.
Let's get him to a trauma room for an exam.
On my count, ready?
One.
Two.
Three.
Is he gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me.
You have to go on.
Finish the hunt.
Is there some kind of big cash prize or something?
Just pride and glory.
Wait.
You went to Washington Union?
Yeah.
Third place in my senior year.
The last clue. "
Find and retrieve the identifier for something that looks like itself but no longer is."
Go.
Okay.
Let's go.
Okay.
Dev, let's go this way.
Okay.
I'm gonna go give security a heads up on that.
But first, can you inform CT that we'll likely head there right after trauma?
Sure, Dr.
Hunt.
Doesn't hurt to give them a little head start, right?
You're sure we won't get in trouble?
Oh, we might, but you'll be fine.
Don't worry about it.
Let me help you here.
Oh.
There you go.
Hi, I'm Dr.
Kwan.
Molly.
Yeah.
I'm gonna jump ahead.
Uh, Molly, can you tell me about your seizures?
Um, I've had them since the accident, a little over four years.
You've had grand mal seizures for four years?
On and off.
Some meds work for a while, but eventually they stop.
Right now I'm on phenytoin, but I guess that's not working anymore either.
I'm so sorry.
I had no idea.
Okay, we'll run an EEG and see if we can classify your seizure activity and go from there, all right?
Between her multiple scans, mental status exam, and previous clinical findings and tests, I have no reason to say it's anything other than Alzheimer's.
Mmm.
Tasha is the youngest person I've seen with it.
It happens.
Yeah, it shouldn't.
No, but younger patients do hold clues to the disease that we didn't even know existed.
Maybe we will find some.
If Meredith and I ever retain funding again.
Yes.
Okay, thank you for the consult.
I appreciate it.
A scavenger hunt kid stole my badge and I haven't had time to get a new one.
Thank you.
Cass?
What are you doing here, and how did you get in here?
I kept this from when I filled in here.
Don't tell the Chief.
I think she'd give you a pass.
I had the day off and thought, "Where can I go for harsh lighting and free coffee?"
David's getting a colonoscopy, which is its own kind of scavenger hunt.
Well, I hope his is less eventful than the one I'm dealing with.
Between kids stealing stuff and crashing into MRI machines, somehow I have to find the time to make a slideshow about the hospital's endowment.
I did one last week for my sixth grader's biology class on metamorphosis.
Got an A-plus.
Congrats.
You wanna make mine?
Sure, I love slideshows.
I was joking.
I'm not.
Catch me up to speed.
I'll make you the best one you've ever seen.
Really?
Thank you so much.
You-you can work from my office.
The coffee's so much better.
Can we use your badge?
Keep it.
You need it more than I do.
Uh, Lisa's labs are up.
Oh.
No, no, no.
I ordered exactly what you asked.
Look, her transaminases quadrupled.
Yeah.
Oh, and her INR doubled from her last lab draw.
Damn it.
I don't want this!
Calm down, Ms.
Saito, I'm just trying to help you.
I was just trying to give her mucomyst.
I don't want that.
Get it away from me.
What are you doing here?
Well, we're trying to help you, Lisa.
No.
Why are you keeping me right now?
No, no.
I have to go.
I need to go!
I...
She's encephalopathic.
That happened fast.
Okay, so we need to get her to the ICU.
Start her on IV mucomyst.
Uh, consult nephrology for possible dialysis.
Oh!
And get UNOS on my phone.
Okay.
Okay.
You're okay.
Uh-huh.
Yes, status 1A.
Y-Y-Yes.
Oh.
Okay...
Yes, we're interested.
Yes, thank you.
UNOS says there's a possible match for Lisa.
Now?
No, in this hospital.
She should go to Vegas with those odds.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, the liver isn't hers yet.
There's still some deliberating...
Get her chart and tell Marsh.
Will do.
Meredith.
Hi.
Hey, I heard that you and Marsh were here.
I was hoping to speak to him about a liver transplant.
We're still waiting for the committee to decide whether to allocate the liver to another patient.
Excuse me?
You're talking about Catherine's friend who needs the liver transplant?
No.
Oh, you...
You know...
Yeah, cancel Vegas.
She may not get it.
There was a big mix-up with her medical history.
The committee should make their decision soon.
They're meeting now.
Lisa needs that liver.
Should we talk to the committee?
About Grey's patient who's Catherine Fox's friend?
No, that is not our business.
It's the committee's decision.
You get Lisa settled in the ICU.
Well, am I broken beyond repair?
Uh, there's definitely increased delta wave activity, and it looks like sharp wave complexes in the region.
Even when I'm not seizing?
Well, it's like an earthquake.
There's seismic activity all the time, but...
...
you only feel the big ones.
So what do we do about it?
Uh, we could try adjusting your medication.
Hmm.
We should talk to her neurologist first.
You're supposed to be updating my post-op notes.
And I don't know where you're supposed to be, but it is definitely not here.
Are you running an EEG?
This is Molly.
She had a grand mal seizure this morning.
Hi.
Is she a patient?
Who is her doctor?
Uh...
We are.
Both of you, follow me.
Now.
It's okay.
This is my department.
You are interns.
Do you know what this looks like?
I'm sorry.
We just thought...
When you sneak patients in, put them in the farthest room from the nurses' station, otherwise you are begging to be caught.
Yeah.
We'll be more careful next time.
Uh, he means there won't be a next time.
I thought you were slammed today.
Do you want my help or not?
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh, still no decision about the liver?
No, not yet.
No.
If they don't decide soon, the liver won't be viable anymore, and then no one's gonna get it.
What...
Oh.
I told you to leave that alone.
I just volunteered to answer any questions the committee might have about Lisa's case.
You just volunteered.
Yeah.
Anything?
No, we're still waiting.
Warren might know something.
Apparently he was just speaking with them.
I'm sorry, how did you know the committee was meeting?
Well, I...
I told them.
It's not exactly a secret.
The liver...
...
will go to Lisa Saito.
What?
Okay...
Sorry.
You know what?
I just don't get it.
You've made a career out of finding your ways around protocols.
I don't get it.
It was the ethical thing to do.
Okay, well then you can go tell Evynn her wife's not getting the liver.
Hey.
How's he doing?
Uh, still waiting on the scans, and I'm trying to crack this clue. "
The identifier is something that looks like itself but no longer is."
A portable X-ray machine?
You think the people that made these clues know there's a portable X-ray machine?
My sophomore year there was a pleur-evac on the list.
Millin, what do you think?
Has anyone seen Andrea?
She really wants to win this thing.
Glad she has goals, and I don't play.
The scans are up.
Hmm.
Yeah, he has a grade three splenic lac with active extrava.
Hemodynamically stable.
All right, Millin, let's get him to the IR suite to embolize.
All right.
Looks like itself but no longer is.
An ID badge.
No, that's too easy.
Right?
That liver was hers.
She was on the OR table.
Because you didn't tell us all the information.
I also didn't tell you she loves animal crackers, the old-school kind in the box with the handle.
Or that she's seen every episode of Gossip Girl at least twice.
Or that she talked to her dad every night on the way home until she had to stop working because of the Alzheimer's.
I understand why you're upset.
I don't think you do.
You're so focused on your research, you've forgotten about the people living with it.
That's not true.
You helped hand her a death sentence.
Evynn, these lights are hurting my eyes.
When are we going home?
Soon, babe.
Soon.
You said we were gonna go home soon already.
I don't wanna be here anymore.
Me either.
You do know it wasn't my decision?
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Any news from the team?
I didn't feel the need to check.
So, Cameron, the risks of the embolization include bleeding, infection and kidney damage.
Signed.
And we can also call your girlfriend and give her an update if you'd like.
Andrea?
She's just my roommate.
Is there a reason you thought she was my girlfriend?
I didn't seem, like, in love with her or something, did I?
I-I was really focusing on your injuries.
Oh, it's obvious, isn't it?
Crap.
This is bad.
Do you think she knows?
The only way to know for sure is to tell her.
Is it?
She's the roommate, friend.
You know, it's kind of risky.
You and Altman were friends before you got together, right?
Yeah, we were friends for 20 years before we got together.
That's my entire life.
I don't wanna wait that long.
You could always join the rest of us who think that love sucks.
Take your shot, man.
Just be prepared for it to, you know, not go your way.
I'm gonna do it.
Can I borrow your phone?
No.
Oh, hey.
Don't move.
All right.
Hey.
I'll tell you what, we'll find Andrea.
We'll bring her to you before the procedure, okay?
Okay.
Be right back.
Oh, don't mind me.
Just saving your ass.
Oh, I owe you, seriously.
Feel free to gift me a spa day.
You still swamped?
Yeah.
The...
the kid who crashed into the MRI needs surgery.
I can't decide if I'm more upset about that or the fact that I am currently out an MRI machine until we pay $50,000 in repairs.
They had to push the red button.
I have always wanted to push that button.
How is it that you are always here when this hospital is falling apart?
I've seen hospitals that are falling apart.
I work in one of them.
This place is great.
Flattery will get you two spa days.
I only need the one.
You should give yourself the other one.
You deserve it.
It's, um, been a little quiet.
I am gonna go check on security.
Thank you again.
It's my pleasure.
How do you know Molly?
I'll let Kwan take this one.
We were engaged.
Now...
I don't know.
Molly, you did great.
Why don't you go ahead and get her out?
Yeah.
All right, you see how it is lighting up in the hippocampus?
That is temporal lobe epilepsy.
Can you help her?
Oh, I can try.
It doesn't always work.
Let's go.
Molly, the focus of your seizure activity is coming from the hippocampus.
That coupled with your developed tolerance to drugs makes me think that surgery is your best bet.
Deep brain stimulation?
I've had quite a bit of success with DBS in epilepsy patients.
I'm-I'm sorry.
Um...
I'm not interested.
I don't want any more surgeries.
You'd rather live with debilitating seizures?
Well, I have been living with them for years.
And yes, they can be terrifying, but you don't know what it's like to have entire years of your life just disappear.
And I can't start over.
I can't.
That's not going to happen.
Dr.
Kwan.
Molly, You can't let your fears get in the way of your future.
Dr.
Kwan, why don't you wait outside?
We will finish with Molly.
I'm not asking.
Bailey, just making sure you saw the graft on the...
on the donor's CT.
Uh, the distance between the portal vein and IVC.
Yeah, I saw it.
Okay, good.
I'm sorry that your patient isn't getting a liver.
No, no, no.
You did nothing wrong.
Good luck with Lisa's transplant.
Mkay.
Griffith, did you finish Tasha's discharge papers?
I need to go over them with Evynn, but I think she went to the cafeteria.
So, uh, Tasha doesn't know?
Tasha kept saying she went to lunch with Reggie.
Extrapolated the rest.
And who's Reggie?
No idea.
It could be you.
Yes.
Dr.
Marsh, how is Dr.
Grey's research going?
They're looking for more funding.
Really hope they find it.
Yeah.
My grandmother has Alzheimer's.
I'm sorry.
How advanced is she?
Just moved her into a memory care facility.
Does she like it?
She has a friend named Isaac.
She loves the coffee cake.
Yeah, she's happy.
That could change any day, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
Thank you.
I'll print Tasha's paperwork.
Okay.
Hey, did Millin respond to your page?
Not yet.
I feel nauseous.
Cam, are you okay?
He is in a lot of pain.
Do I have to be here for this?
I wanna die.
Dev, can you leave?
Uh, where am I supposed to go?
Fine.
Just turn around.
You want me to...
Yeah.
I'm in love with you.
I have been in love with you from the moment we met, carrying your stupid Harry Styles posters into the dorms.
I wanna be with you.
And I don't care that you're smashing Dev...
Dude.
Cameron.
He doesn't wanna be your boyfriend, Andrea.
And I want everything with you.
I want...
Cam.
Cam, are you okay?
He's getting hypotensive.
Change of plan.
Cameron!
Is he gonna be okay?
Take him straight to the OR.
What's happening?
Okay, let's move.
Cameron!
Oh, right.
Ah.
Slideshow is done, and it is pretty kick-ass if I do say so myself.
I can't thank you enough.
I may finally get some sleep tonight.
It was fun.
The hospital endowment is a surprisingly interesting topic.
Said no one ever.
You check out the slideshow and then decide.
I need to go find my husband.
They've pushed his colonoscopy till the end of the day.
He is probably bribing nurses for food, and I would rather not lose my house over a banana nut muffin.
Hey, um, how about, uh, Saturday for the spa day?
Together?
I don't think that's a good idea.
No?
I'm trying to respect your boundaries.
It's okay.
When you figure it out, you let me know.
Pressures are still soft.
Let's hang two units of blood.
Looks like the bleeding is isolated to the spleen.
Let's prepare to remove it.
Right angle and tie, please.
Okay, blood pressure's picking up.
Okay.
Millin, more suction.
Mm-hmm.
Has anyone ever died on this scavenger hunt?
Uh, not that I know of.
I think if people were dying, they'd cancel it.
Let's not give 'em a reason to.
Okay?
At least they won't cancel it over a broken heart.
We really steered him wrong.
Had I known she was sleeping with the other guy...
They're doomed.
It would have been a lot easier if he just kept his mouth shut.
Removing the spleen.
Rest in peace, spleen.
Time of death...
16:31.
Cause of death...
sheer stupidity.
See?
You can have fun.
What?
Oh.
I think I just figured out the scavenger hunt clue.
Millin, welcome to the party.
Glad to have you.
But I'm gonna need to know what it is.
Hey, how'd it go with Shepherd?
Where did you leave things?
Shepherd doesn't want me discussing the case with you.
Bro.
Molly's gonna talk to her neurologist about switching medication.
I thought we established her epilepsy is refractory to meds.
Yeah, but she doesn't wanna do surgery, so the only other option is to hope that another drug will work.
And you told her how irresponsible that is?
No, I don't coerce patients into getting surgery.
She's not a patient.
She's the love of my life.
Have you told her that?
It's none of your business.
Brain surgery is terrifying.
I wouldn't wanna do it if I didn't know who was waiting on the other side.
You're welcome, by the way.
Okay, I'm here.
Okay, I-I-I know the committee's already made its decision, but I think I have a plan.
My patient's on the table.
Yes, okay.
And she will get a transplant, but so can Tasha.
We do a split liver transplant.
Tasha would get two-thirds of the liver, and Lisa would get the remaining third.
A third of the liver can't nearly be enough to regenerate and function.
It doesn't need to regenerate.
It will act as a bridge.
Lisa's liver failure is reversible.
It just needs time to heal on its own.
The graft will allow that to happen.
It could save Lisa from having to take immunosuppressants for the rest of her life.
Yes, it would.
And you did say that the liver was too big for Tasha.
So, the split is a great fix.
Yes.
We do that preemptively, we save two lives.
It's a win-win.
Well, what the hell are we waiting for?
Let's go give everybody livers.
You wanna tell Evynn the good news?
Let's go do it together.
Her post-op ultrasound looks great.
We should be able to extubate her soon.
Oh, that's good.
Evynn's waiting for an update, so I'm gonna let her know.
Um...
You know I...
I didn't agree with what she did, but I understand it.
She was in a tough spot.
She did what she thought was best, given the circumstances.
And I know you did too.
Thanks.
Are we supposed to be down here?
Now you care about the rules?
Well, it's dead bodies, so, yeah.
Dead bodies or...
something that looks like itself but no longer is.
We're supposed to bring back a body?
What?
No.
No.
You're...
You're supposed to bring back the identifier.
Toe tag.
Yes!
Wow.
You're really smart.
Yeah, I know.
You know what this means, right?
No one else is gonna be able to get in the morgue.
We did it!
Hey, hey, hey, you're surrounded by the deceased.
Show a little respect.
I'm so sorry.
Sorry.
Get out of here before we get caught.
Go, go, go.
Her vitals look good.
Post-op labs are reassuring.
Yeah, things...
worked out today.
Mm-hmm.
But I need to tell you...
You really don't.
Altman's evaluation came in.
Yeah.
Ben, you are still in a trial period, so can you just stay in your lane?
Are you asking as my boss or as my wife?
What does it matter?
Well, if it's my boss, then, okay.
But if it's my wife, then I'm gonna be honest.
If I can help someone, I'm gonna do it.
Now, I am not a 20-something-year-old intern with no experience.
I am going to do what is best and hope my boss can see that.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I gotta finish rounds.
Oh, my...
Welcome back.
Surgery went great.
We're gonna have you on your feet in a couple of days.
Just do me a favor.
Avoid giant magnets, okay?
I don't think that'll be a problem.
Can I come in?
He just woke up.
He's not ready for...
Can we talk?
Okay.
I said everything I have to say.
You know how you don't have just one jacket?
You have a raincoat, a heavy coat for when it's really cold, a light trench for spring.
I only have one jacket.
Okay.
Well, I have a lot.
He just had major surgery.
If this isn't urgent...
I'll get to the point.
You make me laugh harder than anybody else.
I need that in my life.
But I also need Dev, who makes me feel smart, and Dean, who makes me feel worldly.
There's a Dean?
I'm 21.
I'm not ready to settle down.
But you are my best friend.
And I hope I didn't ruin that.
I make you laugh the hardest?
Don't get cocky.
Hey, get a little cocky.
We won the scavenger hunt.
Holy crap.
We won?
I mean, you won?
That's...
Congratulations.
I mean, that...
You're gonna have that forever.
Don't get up.
I'm just gonna check her JP drain.
It'll just take me a minute.
She has good days and bad days, but every second I get to spend with her is a gift, so thank you.
My mother had Alzheimer's, so I know the hell you're living in.
I'm sorry if I implied otherwise.
Everything looks good.
You know, my research is always about the people.
I never forget that.
Understood.
Is she still not speaking to you?
She might not ever again.
Oh, she will.
But it just may take her a while.
What makes you so sure?
She told me the two of you are like family.
Reconciling family is very important to her.
She just needs a minute, maybe.
She'll come around.
Take care.
Hey, you want a ride?
No, I am going out tonight.
There's a lot of people out there having fun, and I wanna be one of them.
I'll be at Joe's if you wanna join.
Hard day?
You could say that.
You wanna go to Joe's and talk about it?
I have a bid whist date.
Your...
Your grandma?
Yeah, haven't seen her in a while.
You should go get a drink.
But what if I'd rather play bid whist?
Seriously?
You had a hard day.
I wanna be there for you.
Both of you.
Thank you.
Plus, when you're tired, you're easier to beat at cards.
That is the only way you can beat me.
Oh.
Before you drove away that night, I asked if you wanted to cancel the wedding, and you said you needed to think. "
Wait for me," you said.
I am still waiting for you, Molly.
As long as it takes, whatever it takes, I'll wait.
And I'm sorry I tried to pressure you into surgery, but I just...
I just don't wanna see you suffer anymore.
I've been doing some research.
And did you know that there are experimental surgeries for amnesiacs to regain their memories?
What does that have to do with your seizures?
Well, do you think Dr.
Shepherd would try it?
If I get the seizure surgery, my brain will be open anyway.
You don't want a standard procedure, but you'll let Shepherd experiment on your brain?
I know, I know.
It sounds like science fiction, but more than stopping my seizures, more than anything, I want to remember you.
So, if Dr.
Shepherd will try to get my memories back...
I'll do the surgery.
After a terminal diagnosis, it's hard to trust the good days, when every second, the clock is counting down.
We just got new labs in for Tasha.
Okay, her lactate is coming down.
That's promising.
Well, she still has Alzheimer's.
That won't get easier.
No.
Listen, I didn't see you in Tasha.
You don't have to explain.
No, no, no, I want to.
I, um...
I...
I saw myself in Evynn.
Yeah.
Look, you just gotta know that if I were in her position, I wouldn't stop fighting for you.
I wouldn't.
I wouldn't either.
I can't imagine my life without you.
Same.
I think we just agreed on something.
Yeah.
But what if you stopped fixating on what you will lose, rather than what you already have?
Hey.
Hey.
Listen, I...
I need to tell you something.
That's ominous.
The last time she was at the hospital, Nora tried to kiss me.
I didn't wanna tell you because nothing happened.
I pulled away.
And I didn't want you to get upset for no reason.
And she has texted me a couple times other than this morning, and it started to feel dishonest.
And I never wanna lie to you.
Thank you.
I also wanna be honest with you.
I bumped into Cass today.
So, I...
I think...
I think I might be attracted to her.
Well...
What does that mean?
I don't...
I don't know.
I mean...
I love you.
And I love you.
What's gonna happen with us?
I don't know.
Can you take this moment, just this moment, and breathe it in?
