Grey's Anatomy s02e17 Episode Script

[narrator.]
Previously on Grey's Anatomy: [Meredith.]
I have a feeling.
- [Cristina.]
What kind of feeling? - Like I might die.
[Meredith.]
Hello? Clearly not my dream.
My contractions are ten minutes apart and my water just broke on your shoes.
- Can't we use first names? - I don't think so.
I can't remember our last kiss? Where is my husband? Got into a car accident getting to the birth.
- Is my wife here? - There's not going to be a baby today! Meredith and Cristina are doers.
They're doers.
I'm horny, I'm half-naked.
You want to talk metaphors or do you want to take off your pants? A quiet board means trouble.
A quiet board is death.
Hannah.
Hannah Davies.
Why do you have your hand inside my patient? My husband has to go and stand in front of his big gun.
[Alex.]
He shot himself with a bazooka? - Was there an explosion? - No.
I'm touching live unexploded ammunition? Ten minutes ago the operating rooms at Seattle Grace were evacuated - except Dr.
Burke's team.
- And Dr.
Shepherd's team.
I can't leave Bailey's husband with his skull flap open.
Pink mist.
That's what the bomb squad calls you when you blow up.
Dylan Young, bomb squad.
That device is homemade which means it's unstable.
I am 22 years old.
We need to clear the room.
This is a mistake.
Calm down.
What did I do? What did I do? [Meredith.]
In hospitals, they say you know.
You know when you're going to die.
Some doctors say it's a look patients get in their eyes.
Some say there 's a scent, the smell of death.
Some think there 's just some kind of sixth sense.
When the great beyond is heading for you, you feel it coming.
Whatever it is, it's creepy.
Because if you know, what do you do about it? Forget about the fact that you're scared out of your mind.
[breathes heavil7.]
If you knew this was your last day on Earth, how would you want to spend it? - What's going on? - Uh, something happened in OR Three.
- What? - I don't know.
All I know is Hannah, the paramedic, she's missing.
[George.]
Chief? What's happened? A quiet board.
A quiet board is what's happened.
Dr.
Shepherd? Dr.
Burke.
How's it going? He's got a second bleed under the skull base.
If I do what the textbooks say, he could lose the power of speech, herniate and die.
- What's your other option? - If I do what I want, he could lose the power of speech, herniate and die.
Well, good luck with that.
Thanks.
Is there something you want? You know, it was really stupid of you not to evacuate.
- You, too.
- Yeah, I know.
We should consider a new profession.
Yes, we should.
Now, can you operate and remove the device from the guy? After the bomb squad is through assessing him, I'm going to try.
I don't want to be the guy that kills Bailey's husband.
I don't want to be the guy that kills us all.
- Dr.
Shepherd.
- Dr.
Burke.
You realize how stupid that was? - It was, incredibly stupid.
- I don't need to be made fun of when I have my hand inside a body that's got a bomb in it and a stranger is Velcro-ing a flak jacket to my boobs.
You've got a sense of irony.
Only when things are really ironic.
I had a feeling.
[Dylan.]
What's that? Nothing.
- Time for you to go.
- No, I'm staying.
There's nothing more you can do here.
We got it covered.
Cristina, this is not another cool surgery.
This ammo can go off any time and kill everyone.
Do you get that? You cannot be in here.
- Do you think this is about surgery? - I cannot do this with you here.
I cannot think.
We'll be fine.
It's OK.
You know in the movies how there's always the hero and then there's the other guy? You know the guy who sees danger and runs in the opposite direction? Yes.
Be the other guy.
[sighs.]
So, you have a plan, right? You have a way to get me out of this? I feel colors are brighter.
Does anyone feel colors are brighter? - My head hurts.
- It's the adrenaline.
- Do you have the smell thing? I have - Shut up! - Are you OK? - Of course not.
How could she be OK? You're insensitive.
- I am not insensitive.
- Would you shut up! Nobody cares if the blue is bluer or if you have super smelling powers.
Meredith could die.
Any minute she could just die.
Actually stop living.
Dead.
Corpse.
[laughs.]
Look, I'm sorry.
God, I have really inappropriate reactions to this kind of stress.
I'm sorry.
Hold on.
- OK? - Yeah.
Should we like do something? - I mean, call Meredith's family? - We are Meredith's family.
I'm sorry.
[laughs.]
We are Meredith's family.
- This area's been evacuated, Dr.
Yang.
- And somehow you're still here.
- I have to be here.
You don't.
- Yes I do.
- Dr.
Yang.
- Yes I do! Besides, l I'm guessing you need a little company.
- How's he doing? - He's hanging in there.
- How's the paramedic Hannah doing? - Hannah? The girl with the bomb.
Oh, uh, she's hanging in there, too.
[elevator bell pings.]
- Calm down.
- [Richard.]
Calm down? I have an evacuated OR, a bomb in a body cavity, a missing paramedic, an intern with her hand on the explosive, two world-class surgeons in harm's way, a man on a table who may bleed out any moment unless we remove the bomb from his chest and my favorite resident in labor who you are now telling me refuses to push.
Really? Calm down? - You really want me to calm down? - OK, don't calm down.
Dr.
Bailey is scared, sir.
It's a day to be scared.
She won't let me examine her but her contractions are 40 seconds apart and she is refusing to push.
The baby could go into distress and if she doesn't come out of this, I'll need an OR to do an emergency C-section.
I can't give you an OR, Addie.
I don't have an OR to give.
Convince her.
Bailey's rational.
She's not Bailey, she's a woman in labor whose husband is in surgery next to a bomb.
- So is yours.
- This is about Bailey.
I need an OR.
- I don't know what to tell you.
- Look, Richard, we have about an hour.
And then I'm going to need you to get me an OR, build me an OR, find me a helicopter to fly me to any OR in the city.
Otherwise, instead of having a baby, she'll be losing one.
- Here are the blueprints you asked for.
- Thank you.
[# The Weepies: World Spins Madly On.]
I laugh at funerals.
I don't go to funerals.
Izzie.
Iz.
I was jealous.
I was jealous of Meredith and the surgery and l I I was jealous, and now I was jealous, Alex.
Is this the strangest thing to happen in your OR? - I'd have to say that it is.
- Good, because I'm very competitive.
All the best surgeons are.
[George.]
Dr.
Montgomery-Shepherd talked to the chief.
She's on the phone with Mercy West now - to see if they have any ORs.
- I need someone to drive me home.
They're talking about doing a C-section.
Let them talk.
I'm not going to Mercy West.
This baby is not coming out.
I need a ride.
I can't focus enough to drive myself and Tucker - I need a ride.
- You could lose it.
I told you, I'm not having this baby until tomorrow.
- It could die before it's even born! - Can you give me a ride home? - Dr.
Bailey - Then get out! [woman.]
Is there any news? What? Oh, I'm sorry, Mrs.
Carlson.
My husband.
I was wondering if there was any news.
Because you look so worried.
And I heard this doctor saying even though that girl has her finger on the tear in his heart that my husband's losing blood.
Every second he's losing blood.
Which means he could die.
He could die? I ask because I know you'll tell me the truth.
Because you look so worried.
Mrs.
Carlson Yes, it's possible that he could bleed out and die if we don't operate soon.
OK.
OK.
Thank you for telling me the truth.
[breathless sobbing.]
I'll just I'll just go wait over here.
Will somebody get me an update? And where's the head of the bomb squad? I'm right here.
And we're good to go.
My team's in place, Dr.
Burke is ready.
The patient is stable.
We can have the bomb out in ten minutes if I'm not interrupted.
In the OR we put our patients under general anesthesia.
- Yeah.
- That involves a steady flow of oxygen.
Well, can't you turn off the oxygen to my OR? I can and I have.
But this is your OR.
This is the OR floor's main oxygen line.
It's going to be OK.
- You don't know that.
- It's just what you say.
I know.
- Where you going? - I can't just I got to do something to help.
Thank you for saying that it's going to be OK.
Even if it is just what you say.
[whispering.]
Stop it.
- I'm not a patient.
- What? You two are looking at me the way we look at patients.
Like I'm going to freak out any minute.
I'm not going to freak out so, whatever it is, just tell me.
The main oxygen line runs directly under this room.
OK.
Not OK? Well? I need one of you to tell me what this means exactly.
Because I think I know what it means, but I tend to be "glass half empty" these days, so I won't trust what I think it means.
Because I think it means that if the bomb were to explode over the oxygen line, the whole hospital could blow up.
And that's just crazy, right? I need an answer on when they're going to start moving.
- Look, I'm busy.
- I know.
I know you are, but if there was something, anything we could do to help, it would be very helpful.
We need an assignment, sir.
- [breathless.]
Look, I need - [lzzie.]
Chief? - He's full-on diaphoretic.
- Check his pulse.
- [Alex.]
We need help.
- [lzzie.]
Let's move! - [lzzie.]
I'll get a wheelchair.
- [Alex.]
I think it's a heart attack.
[Dylan.]
Meredith, all it means - is that we have to move.
- Move? That's right.
We have to move.
[whispers.]
I don't want to spend another second here.
Wait.
I can't wiggle my fingers because we can't shift the ammo, and now you want to roll out the entire gurney? Well, that's our safest, safest option.
So we move.
Not a problem.
We can do this.
- You handling this, Grey? - I'm handling this.
- So how's it look? - Hard to say.
EKG is normal.
- That's good news.
- I'm getting up.
Sir, you should wait until we get the blood work back.
- I'm not listening.
- You can talk to me, Dr.
Stevens.
[lzzie.]
Um Um OK.
Your husband should really wait until we get the blood work back for confirmation.
OK, out! Both of you! - I'm getting up.
- You have to body-check me to do so.
Adele, there is a bomb! I heard.
[Richard sighs.]
Dr.
Montgomery-Shepherd? What are we going to do? I mean, about Dr.
Bailey.
Can we drug her? - Against her will? - No.
Well yes.
I mean, can't we force her to push? If Declare her temporarily insane? [short laugh.]
You want me to declare Miranda Bailey, Miranda Bailey, incompetent? Do you think that will help? Do you think it will make her more inclined, comfortable giving birth? - I don't know.
- Do you think I'm not doing everything I can to help her? Do you think I'm just out here because I needed a little me-time? - I'm just asking.
- Stop asking! No matter what you ask, I don't know.
I am doing everything I can.
Everything I can.
Miranda Bailey's husband is in mortal danger, actual mortal danger.
There's not a lot I can say to comfort her because there's not a lot anybody can say to comfort me.
I'm doing my best.
Dr.
Bailey is doing her best.
And I need you to do your best and I need it to be better than standing here asking me the world's stupidest questions! I don't know, O'Malley! [sobbing.]
Hey.
You OK? Wait, are you bleeding? I I think I fell.
I was I was running and, um and I fell.
It It's OK.
Are you Hannah? Yeah.
[Derek.]
Microscissors, Dr.
Yang.
What is so interesting out there? I, um, I'll [Dylan.]
You're doing great.
[Meredith.]
Let's go over it again.
The device is shaped like a rocket about eight inches long.
We'll have everything ready, Dr.
Burke's team will be in place, my team will be in place.
Then I'm going to ask you to take the hand that you have in Mr.
Carlson and wrap it around the device.
- And pull it out.
- Level.
Pull it out while keeping it level.
You know, I don't like you very much.
I don't like you, either.
- What are you doing? - Stop where you are.
- What are you doing? - Dr.
Burke told you to leave.
We're moving to an OR further away from the oxygen line.
In case we blow up.
[Dylan.]
I remember him telling you to leave.
- Where is he? - He's prepping the OR.
Then he'll never know, will he? You stay over there.
You stay over there.
You ready? - Tell me something.
- What? Cristina, I have my hand on a bomb, I'm freaking out.
And most importantly, I really have to pee.
Tell me anything.
He told me he loved me.
Last night.
He thought I was sleeping, but I heard.
Burke loves you.
Yeah.
Mind your own business.
- Burke loves you.
- Yeah, everybody has problems.
- Well, are you going to say it back? - Of course not.
He didn't say it to me, only to the sleeping me.
Reciprocity is not required.
- Besides, he might blow up.
- Excellent point.
All right, everybody.
Let's just keep placing one foot in front of the other.
Nice and slow.
- Meredith, we're almost there.
- OK.
We're almost there.
Nice and easy.
Ready? - Yep.
- All right, let's go.
Nice and slow.
You had to say you were going to die today? I told you.
It's not too deep, but you are going to need a couple of stitches.
Hannah, is there someone you would like me to call? Family? Or maybe a friend? That doctor Dr.
Grey? Meredith.
- Is she? - She's still there.
- So she's still alive? - She's alive.
She's still alive.
Dr.
Milton shouldn't have left you.
- He's a coward.
- I'm a coward.
- No.
- I ran away.
You think you're going to be different.
You think you're going to be the kind of person who stays and does something.
You know, a good man in the storm.
I'm a paramedic.
I'm supposed to stay and do something.
I'm not supposed to run away.
I'm not supposed to hide under the stairs because I left two people to die.
I'm supposed to stay and do something.
I ran away.
Well, blood work's back.
The chief had an anxiety attack.
Who's going to tell him? Um I gave you sex in the linen closet.
You tell him.
Fair enough.
OK, Dr.
Bailey.
Let's go.
[sobs.]
Dr.
Bailey, I need you to turn on your back.
I need you to push.
Leave me alone.
Miranda I can't let her go any longer.
I'll go tell Richard that he has to give us an OR, OK? Dr.
Bailey, I'm surprised at you.
This is not how I thought you would do this.
Dr.
O'Malley, I don't think I truly - I expected more.
- George.
- You're Dr.
Bailey.
- [sobs.]
You don't hide from a fight.
You don't give up.
You strive for greatness.
You Dr.
Bailey you are a doer.
I know your husband's not here and I know there are a lot of things going on here that we have no control over.
But this This we can do.
OK? OK.
[Bailey sobs.]
Let's have this baby.
[exhales.]
We're ready when you are.
[Dylan.]
We're good.
Meredith? Yeah.
[Burke.]
I'm going to extend the wound.
When I cut, the bleeding is going to intensify.
If we're going to save Mr.
Carlson, you must pull the ammo out immediately.
But remember: Remove it while keeping it as level as possible.
Nice and easy.
No quick movements.
Level.
Right.
Level.
You ready? I, uh - Do I have a choice? - You have to be ready.
Yeah.
I guess Scalpel.
I guess I'm ready.
- [Derek.]
How's it going, Yang? - Everything's fine.
- How's the girl with the bomb? - How's he doing? He's almost there.
Can you suction? Irrigate.
Great.
- You didn't answer my question.
- Sir? How is the girl with the bomb? It's Meredith.
The girl with the bomb is Meredith.
[beep.]
I'm good.
She can go.
All right, now, Meredith wrap your hand around the nose cone.

- Both of you.
- Nobody's dying today, Grey.
I want you to look at me.
Look at me.
I know this is bad.
I know that I'm this ass who's been yelling at you all day.
So you pretend that I'm not.
You pretend that I'm someone you like.
Whatever you need.
But you need to listen to me.
- I'm scared.

It'll be over in a second.

[# Kate Havnevik: Unlike Me (acapella mix).]
Burke? You awake? Burke.
[snores.]
I love you, too.
This is our son.
William George Bailey Jones.
Hello, my little man.
Hello.
He's beautiful.
[thunder rumbles.]
[knock at door.]
There's someone at the door for you.
[sighs.]
Hey.
Hey.
You almost died today.
Yeah.
I almost died today.
I can't I can't remember our last kiss.
All I could think about was, "l can't remember our last kiss," which is pathetic, but the last time we were together and happy, l want to be able to remember that.
And I can't, Derek.
I can't remember it.
I'm glad you didn't die today.
It was a Thursday morning.
You were wearing that ratty little Dartmouth t-shirt you look so good in.
The one with the hole in the back of the neck.
You'd just washed your hair and you smelled like some kind of flower.
I was running late for surgery.
You said you were going to see me later.
Then you leaned to me.
You put your hand on my chest and you kissed me.
Soft.
It was quick.
Kind of like a habit.
You know, like we'd do it every day for the rest of our lives.
You went back to reading the newspaper and I went to work.
That was the last time we kissed.
Lavender.
My hair smelled like lavender.
From my conditioner.
Lavender.
Huh.
[Meredith.]
If you knew this was your last day on Earth how would you want to spend it?
