00:00No one time I need you.
00:01Are you okay?
00:03I failed the medical boards.
00:04Correct, it's over, it's done, you screwed up.
00:06If I take the exam for a second time and I don't pass,
00:09you will no longer be a surgical resident at Seattle Grace.
00:17It's an urban myth that suicide rates spike at the holidays.
00:22Turns out, they actually go down.
00:25Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
00:32Experts think it's because people are less inclined to off themselves when surrounded by family.
00:42Looks like Santa threw up in here.
00:44Just go with it, we're being supportive.
00:48Oh, hey, what do you think?
00:51Did I go too overboard?
00:53Oh, I know, I know sometimes I can go a little overboard.
00:56No, we love it.
00:58Oh, yay!
00:59I love Christmas.
01:01We know.
01:02Ironically, that same family togetherness is thought to be the reason that depression rates actually do spike at the holidays.
01:12Yeah, okay, Izzy doesn't count.
01:14I thought you might like to help me decorate it tonight.
01:31Mark our first Christmas together?
01:34I'm Jewish.
01:38Seriously?
01:39My stepfather, Saul Rubenstein?
01:43Oh, right.
01:46Right.
01:51Right.
01:56Look at her belly.
01:58She's almost as wide as she is tall.
02:00Are her ankles swollen?
02:02Is that why she's waddling?
02:03What's going to happen to us when she goes on leave?
02:05Leave?
02:05She's going on leave?
02:06What do you think happens when people push babies out of their vagina?
02:09Do you think we're going to get a new message?
02:11What?
02:12They'll probably just let us all wander around unattended, see how much damage we can do.
02:15Yeah, well, you would know.
02:17Hey, you guys, we should all get together and get Bailey a Christmas gift for the baby.
02:22Or we could organize some sort of Secret Santa thing.
02:24Okay, listen, Tiny Tim, you can take us.
02:26Secret Santa sounds great, Izzy.
02:28Okay.
02:31We're being supportive.
02:32Hey.
02:38Hey.
02:39You okay?
02:40You seem...
02:40Yeah.
02:42You know.
02:44Holidays.
02:46Oh.
02:47Yeah.
02:49I do know.
02:53Hmm.
02:53Tim Epstein, 38, fell off the roof of his house.
03:00I was stringing Hanimus lights and a jingle came loose.
03:04Hanimus?
03:05Hanimus, Chris Mecca, we go all out.
03:08Awesome.
03:09He fell 12 feet.
03:11The good news is my head broke my fall.
03:14There are no visible deformities, but he's definitely having some focal left arm weakness.
03:19He'll probably be fine.
03:20He's always been a little hard-headed.
03:22Does your head hurt when you laugh?
03:25Is that a bad thing?
03:27Do you want to follow my finger?
03:29Your eyes.
03:30Good?
03:31I know karate.
03:35You know, your husband might need a little quiet, so if there's a cafeteria...
03:41No, no, no.
03:41Let him stay.
03:43Pain or no.
03:43I don't want to miss out on the holidays with my kids.
03:47Who'd like to take Mr. Epstein down for a CT?
03:51Stephens, it is.
03:54You should have a dog.
03:56No dog.
03:57Come on, get a dog.
03:58Nadia Shelton, 41, scheduled for excision of her gastric ulcer.
04:03A lot of good it's done us.
04:04She's been scheduled for three days.
04:06It's not his fault.
04:07Every day she gets rescheduled for some emergency.
04:09We're very, very sorry for the inconvenience.
04:12Inconvenience?
04:12You watch your child spend three days in pain and then come and talk to me about inconvenience.
04:17We get a lot of trauma cases at the holidays.
04:20Your daughter's ulcer is serious, but it's not.
04:22Is that the news?
04:23Did he say my wife's not important?
04:25Is that what he's saying?
04:25Is that what I hear?
04:26What are you taking on it?
04:28Grandpa, it's not the remote.
04:29We have the stations that you have to do.
04:31Grandpa, this isn't the remote.
04:32We've had them for months.
04:33All right.
04:34Dr. O'Malley, prep Mrs. Shelton for our ulcer excision, which will happen this morning.
04:39Ernie, Ernie.
04:40Ernie, I'm so happy.
04:42We're going to go to the needle.
04:44Greg, Rev, cover the pit.
04:47You can expect all sorts of holiday idiocy.
04:49So that is my gift to you, Yang.
04:52Dr. Bailey, you know it's just called.
04:55They have a donor heart for a patient of mine.
04:57Heart surgery?
04:57I'm free.
04:58I'm totally free, right?
04:58I'm a building.
04:59No, you're not.
05:01You're covering the pit.
05:02Yang, it's yours.
05:04Pit!
05:06Damn, heart transplant.
05:08What a light to have seen that.
05:09There's always tomorrow.
05:10Maybe for you.
05:11Meaning?
05:12I retake the boards tomorrow.
05:14Pretty sure I'm going to fail, which makes today my last day here.
05:18And I get to spend it doing stitches in the pit.
05:24So, when does Hanukkah fall this year?
05:27Uh, no idea.
05:30Oh.
05:30Well, if there are any more traditions, you want me to be aware of them.
05:33Oh, no, Burke, seriously?
05:34I haven't observed religious holidays since I was old enough to know better.
05:44As fast as you can.
05:46You can't do it.
05:47Good morning, Justin.
05:48Marion?
05:49Good morning.
05:49How'd I have to work?
05:51I'm here with good news.
05:52Great news.
05:54You don't mean that...
05:55You know it's called.
05:56We have a heart.
05:59I'll operate this morning.
06:01You hear that, baby?
06:02Santa Claus is bringing you a new heart for Christmas.
06:06Tell a fat ass to give it to someone else.
06:08I don't want it.
06:09I don't want it.
06:10I'm taking it twice.
06:10Gonna find out if you're naughty and nice.
06:14Santa Claus is coming to town.
06:20Sorry, Dr. Burke.
06:21He's tired today.
06:23I'm tired every day.
06:25I hate Christmas every day.
06:26And I'd rather have another stupid operation.
06:29Justin, enough surgery can be frightening.
06:32But you need this heart.
06:33You've worn out your last one.
06:35His last one?
06:37Justin had a heart transplant as a baby.
06:40But his heart hasn't aged as well as he has.
06:42You understand that, Justin?
06:44Your heart just can't keep up with you anymore.
06:46You need a new one.
06:46I don't care.
06:49I don't want it.
06:50Can you tell me why not?
06:57Dr. Kim, 1471.
06:59Dr. Kim, 1471.
07:00Anxiety, attacks, aneurysms, and ulcers.
07:03Must be December.
07:05Chief Adele just called.
07:07Tell her I'm in surgery.
07:07She knows you're not in surgery, and she said to tell you, quote,
07:11We are going to our niece's school pageant this morning.
07:14You have known about it for months.
07:15And after what you pulled on Thanksgiving,
07:18and then she started using a great many words that I don't feel comfortable repeating.
07:22Look, I have seven surgeons on vacation.
07:24And there was something about divorce.
07:30You'll have to cover my ulcer excision.
07:33Yes, sir.
07:34A woman is unreasonable.
07:36Winded watching a six-year-old dressed up like a wise man become a man.
07:40You couldn't hang up.
07:42Male 44 had a gastric bypass.
07:44Last three weeks pulled off before an extreme pain when we found him.
07:47Said something about fruitcake.
07:48You must have torn his abdomen wide open.
07:50You're going to have to fight me for this one.
07:52It's all yours.
07:53My parting gift.
07:57Okay.
07:58For your mom, I've got a land's wool blanket.
08:01Handmade in Edinburgh.
08:02It's soft, comfortable.
08:03It says don't hate me for hurting your son.
08:05Except with fabric.
08:06Maddie, you know my mom loves you.
08:07No.
08:08She used to love me.
08:09I've got a lot of ground to make up for with these gifts.
08:10So what do you think?
08:11Plain or cloud or both?
08:13I don't know.
08:13Whatever.
08:15Christmas shopping.
08:16I'm just really not in the mood for it right now.
08:18Okay?
08:18Okay.
08:19Well, how about French food and Scottish catalogs tonight?
08:21Wrong night?
08:22Um, well, I guess that depends.
08:24Dr. Shepard?
08:25I don't want to get out of here.
08:26Yeah.
08:26I have Tim Epstein CT scans back.
08:28Ah, good.
08:31What do you think?
08:32It's not great.
08:33Oh, no, no.
08:34It's not very hot.
08:36Honey, honey, what do you think of this, uh, scooter?
08:38I'm just using it.
08:39I need to take her blood pressure.
08:40Josh, what is it?
08:42Hey, go on.
08:42I got three arms.
08:43I can't hear what's...
08:44Language!
08:45Josh!
08:46Do you have any questions about the surgery?
08:47Apart from when you're actually going to do it.
08:50We're doing it now.
08:51Good.
08:52I'm sorry.
08:53Don't apologize.
08:54You're a happy.
08:54Any questions?
08:56No.
08:57I've had three bleeding ulcers in the last five years.
09:01Yeah.
09:01I hope you read the chart.
09:04Yes.
09:05Good.
09:13Dr. Bailey, gastric perforation just came in.
09:15Damn.
09:16Oh.
09:17All right.
09:18Take Ms. Sheldon back to her room.
09:20Seriously?
09:21Do I look like I'm kidding?
09:22Tell her we'll get to her this afternoon.
09:23Gray, call the ER.
09:25Tell him to send him up and then scrub in.
09:30Alex Kareff, um, failed his boards and he's retaking them tomorrow.
09:34He can't study for a practical by himself.
09:36If he fails again, he's out.
09:39Okay, go.
09:39O'Malley.
09:41O'Malley.
09:42Yeah?
09:42After you drop out here and scrub in.
09:45All right.
09:46Okay.
09:46Okay, Dustin.
09:47Well, I told you I don't want the heart.
09:49Why are you doing this?
09:50Because you need it.
09:52And until you're 18, your mother calls all the shots.
09:55My mother's a liar.
09:56You heard her.
09:57She said the heart came from Santa Claus.
09:59She shouldn't get to decide anything.
10:00Yeah, well, you could make a run for it.
10:04But the heart you have won't get you very far.
10:07Are we ready?
10:08Just about.
10:11How about you, buddy?
10:12Are you ready?
10:14If I die in a surgery, can't I give this heart to some other kid?
10:18Not gonna happen, Justin.
10:20Not on my watch.
10:23Here we go.
10:27And it was only one day of oil.
10:29And then what happened?
10:31It lasted eight whole days a night.
10:33And it was a miracle.
10:34I want to say that part.
10:36Mr. Epstein, I'm sorry to interrupt.
10:38You remember Dr. Shepard?
10:40Um, should we talk more privately?
10:41Just tell us.
10:44Is it bad?
10:45The fall has caused a subdural hematoma.
10:47I don't even know what that means.
10:49That means your dad, his brain is bleeding.
10:53Great.
10:55Look, there's some risk to the surgery.
10:57It has to happen before the bleeding gets worse.
11:00What kind of risks?
11:01See, the bleed is in an area of the brain that controls the speech and the motor control.
11:07We don't need operation, okay?
11:09You know, Jake, I think we do.
11:11But hey, honey, you know something else?
11:14What?
11:16We have a doctor named Shepard.
11:19Shepard?
11:20Is that a sign from God or what?
11:22Look at that.
11:35Beautiful fit.
11:37Now all we have to do is figure out why he's so angry.
11:39If I had that mother, I'd be angry, too.
11:41Here you go.
11:42Actually, I do have that mother.
11:44Well, his mother is not the problem here.
11:46She loves him.
11:47She never leaves.
11:48She also never listens.
11:50She doesn't know him.
11:51Justin's depressed.
11:52You heard him.
11:53He doesn't want to live.
11:55I just hope he changes his mind before he's too late.
11:58What do you mean, too late?
11:59With all medical realities being equal, why does one patient live and another dies?
12:05I believe there's a mind-body-spirit connection.
12:11And if Justin really doesn't want this heart, his body will reject it.
12:164.8.
12:17Okay, but let me get this straight.
12:19You don't just celebrate Christmas.
12:22You actually believe in Santa Claus?
12:23Dr. Yang?
12:32Go and schedule a psychiatric consult for our patient.
12:35We're not done here.
12:36You are.
12:42I don't know.
12:45It hurts here and here and back here.
12:48Any chance you got hit by a truck and forgot about it?
12:50You're judged on bedside manner, Alex.
12:53I wouldn't be surprised if that's why you failed the last time.
12:55Could you be any more patronizing?
12:57I didn't ask for your help.
12:58Enough with the ego, you big baby.
13:00I keep up a surgery for this.
13:02Now, like I said, it hurts here and here and back here.
13:08Oh, and this morning, I noticed my poop was a funny grayish color.
13:13Wow.
13:13That's all you can save of his stomach?
13:15Yep.
13:16Eating is what this man lives for.
13:18You should put him out of his misery.
13:20Paging Dr. Caribbean.
13:23What did you just say?
13:25It's a joke.
13:27Kevorkian, Kravian.
13:29Alex Krav.
13:30I get the joke.
13:31I just don't think it's funny.
13:34You see this on Allie?
13:35I make one mistake with this scalpel and this man's dead.
13:39My husband, he makes mistakes at his job all the time.
13:42As far as I know, he's never killed anyone, but I have and you will.
13:47And Alex did.
13:47He made a math mistake and a man died for it.
13:52Hey, run that past your accountant.
13:54See how he'd feel if every mistake he made, someone ended up dead.
14:00Look, you don't have to like Alex.
14:02You don't even have to care about him.
14:03But you damn well have to be on his side.
14:05Hold that.
14:11What a great family.
14:14Hanumus, Chrismica.
14:15How cute are those kids?
14:17Really, Dr. Stevens?
14:18Chrismica?
14:19Is it 1.5?
14:20I think it's sweet.
14:23It's the ICP.
14:26Do you happen to know what time of year neurosurgeons are the busiest, don't you, students?
14:29No, there's a time of year.
14:31Well, there's no hard or fast rule, but brain injuries tend to pile up around the holidays, like our friend here.
14:38Folks fall off their roofs while they string up lights, or they go skating for the first time in a decade, and they plate their heads open.
14:45And every year, people drive through blizzards to get to parties where they kiss germ-infected strangers under poisonous mistletoe, and then they get so drunk that they smash their heads through their windshield on their way home.
14:58Like I said, there's no hard or fast rule.
15:03Does this hurt, Mrs. Gray?
15:05Yes, doctor.
15:07How about here?
15:08Does it hurt here?
15:09Yes, it does.
15:10Okay, seriously, if you're that lonely, there are excellent vibrators.
15:14I can give you a catalog.
15:15He failed his boards.
15:16I'm helping him study.
15:17You failed your practical?
15:18Glad to know you keep a secret, Gray.
15:20I kept your secret.
15:20It didn't do you any good.
15:22He needs our help.
15:23Oh, you're not serious.
15:24What if that were you?
15:25It wouldn't be.
15:26But what if it were?
15:27It wouldn't be.
15:29I have to go.
15:30Be a patient.
15:31Do it for me.
15:32But when Tiny Tim goes all Norman Bates on us, I'm blaming you.
15:35Diagnosis?
15:35Gallstones.
15:36Yes.
15:40I'm a 55-year-old man.
15:42I'm nauseous, and I can't stop throwing up.
15:44Forget it, all right?
15:44I didn't ask for anybody's help.
15:46Okay, Evil Spawn, you can nurse your pride.
15:48Keyword being a nurse.
15:50Or you can pass your test and be a doctor.
15:52Up to you.
15:58Any abdominal pain?
15:59Yes.
16:00From my giant fat belly all the way to my back.
16:02Oh, and I'm drunk.
16:04Hiccup, hiccup.
16:05I got another one for you.
16:07Go get it.
16:08He tried to gift wrap the 70-inch TV for his wife.
16:12Hernia?
16:13Strangulated.
16:14Pretty ugly.
16:14And you just know the wife hates TV.
16:17Gray, is that other project covered?
16:18I think so.
16:20And scrub in.
16:21O'Malley, go tell Nadia Sheldon.
16:23She's off the schedule until tomorrow.
16:26Until tomorrow?
16:27Oh, another day's not going to kill me, Jimmy.
16:29I promise tomorrow's for sure.
16:31Today was for sure.
16:32What's he saying?
16:33He's saying they can't operate till tomorrow.
16:36How gracious!
16:37I cannot believe that.
16:39How gracious!
16:40Could you please, could you please turn that down?
16:42Your mother needs to rest.
16:43Who are you, my dad?
16:44Sir, could you please tell your son?
16:46Don't talk to me about my son.
16:47Who the hell do you think you are?
16:49I'm really sorry.
16:50Is anybody going to clean it?
16:51Think that your wife should rest?
16:53You can't go Christmas shopping with my son.
16:55You people have ruined everything.
16:59You'll be happy.
17:01Again, very sorry.
17:03Oh, yeah.
17:04Very sorry.
17:06That cuts it here, Doc.
17:07Thanks a lot.
17:12Yeah, okay.
17:13The way you're grabbing me now, that's assault.
17:16This is an exam.
17:20Paps.
17:21What?
17:22What the hell?
17:23Does Izzy know?
17:24Does Burke know about this?
17:26Unbunch your panties, George.
17:27We're helping Alex study.
17:28Do it.
17:30I can't hear you when his hand is on your boob.
17:33Take your hand off my boob, Alex.
17:38Study for what?
17:39Shut a gag.
17:40Alex failed his boards.
17:41Seriously?
17:41I failed one part of one board.
17:43That's it.
17:43Still, that's pretty embarrassing.
17:47That is all yours, Georgie.
17:49Do your worst.
17:55You're not giving me a rectal?
17:57Do not ask me to cough.
17:59Dr. Cohen to radiology.
18:00Dr. Cohen to radiology.
18:02Page me.
18:02I didn't see a cycle and self-scheduled here.
18:08I couldn't get one.
18:08I tried to, but they told me to come back in January.
18:14You disrespected me.
18:16You mocked me in my OR.
18:17That can't happen.
18:18I...
18:19It won't happen again.
18:22You equated my spirituality with the belief in Santa Claus.
18:25But science is the one thing.
18:27You know, it's the one thing we have in common.
18:30I'm an intern.
18:31You're not.
18:32I'm a slob.
18:33And you're not.
18:35I say I want to keep our relationship private.
18:38And you go and tell the chief of surgery.
18:40And you ask me to move in with you.
18:41And now you're religious.
18:43Spiritual.
18:44There's a difference.
18:45Well, not to me.
18:49I don't know what we're doing.
18:55But right now, we're working.
18:58Page me if he spikes a fever.
19:01Tell Mrs. Davidson to hire a private therapist or a priest.
19:03Anyone Justin would talk to.
19:11Mrs. Epstein?
19:18Oh.
19:20Who is he?
19:21He's going to be fine.
19:22He's still a little groggy.
19:23My dad wants to see me now, okay?
19:25Okay.
19:26Okay.
19:27I have to run on one side.
19:29Yeah, let's run.
19:30Let's run and see Daddy.
19:32It's okay, guys.
19:33Daddy's okay.
19:36Daddy, Daddy.
19:38I could kiss it better, Daddy.
19:40Get in.
19:41I have a headache.
19:43I'll sing for you, Daddy.
19:44No.
19:45Dashing through this?
19:46No.
19:46I don't want her so much away.
19:48Damn it, Leah.
19:49Shut up!
19:50I can't stand that insipid song!
19:53Tim!
19:53Just get out!
19:55Get out!
19:56Get the hell out of here, all of you!
19:59You stupid suburb!
20:01You broke my dad's brain!
20:08How did that happen?
20:09I mean, his personality, you didn't go anywhere near the frontal lobe.
20:13Well, the CT might have missed something.
20:16Boring and the personality change could be a reaction from the anesthesia wearing off.
20:19Could be the pain.
20:20He was in pain before the surgery.
20:22You know, watch him for a couple hours.
20:23If he doesn't improve, get a new CT.
20:25Okay.
20:25Dr. Stevens.
20:30You had his brain open.
20:31Literally open.
20:32He was laying there, unconscious and vulnerable and...
20:35You think I poisoned him with my anti-holiday venom?
20:38Well, you're the one that's always saying there's a lot about the brain that we don't know.
20:40How do you know that your words didn't speak to him on some unconscious level?
20:44I mean, he trusted you to be his shepherd.
20:46Dr. Stevens, you should be a little embarrassed.
20:52I am.
20:53Good.
21:02Oh, this is the CCU.
21:03There are no trees allowed in the CCU.
21:05I know, but it's never really been enforced, so...
21:08How's he doing?
21:10Uh, surgery went smoothly, but it's...
21:12It's too soon to tell.
21:15He's really a good boy, you know.
21:17You just met him at a difficult time.
21:19He's been down.
21:20I don't know why.
21:21But Father Michael will be able to talk to him.
21:26No offense, but, uh...
21:28Your son doesn't seem to be a fan of the holidays.
21:31He doesn't believe in Santa.
21:34Yes, well...
21:36A mother's job is to protect her child's innocence.
21:39And this Christmas could be his last time, so...
21:43That's what you said last year.
21:46The year before that.
21:48Oh, my baby, you're awake.
21:51You look great.
21:54My big strong boy.
21:56Santa brought you back to me.
21:59What are you doing?
22:03Sorry.
22:04CCU regulations.
22:05Are we using mesh?
22:10Yes.
22:11The conjoined tendon is...
22:14Dr. Bailey?
22:19Someone want to throw up in the body cavity.
22:22Dr. Bailey?
22:23Are you all right?
22:24No, no.
22:25Do you need...
22:25Just...
22:27I need a minute, Gray.
22:28When you operate, the rest of the world goes away.
22:33Hunger, thirst, pain.
22:36You don't feel it in the OR.
22:38But it's not that way...
22:40When you're sharing your body with another person.
22:44Okay.
22:46What are you?
22:48Diva retractor.
22:49Are you sure you don't want me to go find someone to take over for you?
22:53What I want you to find me is a strawberry milkshake.
22:56Extra thick.
22:59Seriously?
23:00Yeah.
23:01Nausea.
23:02Comes with the hunger, Gray.
23:04Go.
23:06It's on the floor.
23:07My throat.
23:08It's like wicked sore, yo.
23:10Plus, I got all these sick breakouts, right?
23:15Dude.
23:16Seriously.
23:16Seriously.
23:20All right.
23:21All right.
23:22Sit down.
23:22Sit down.
23:23Open up your mouth.
23:25I'd like to inspect your telepsis.
23:33What's wrong with you?
23:34Are you sick?
23:36Fake sick.
23:39I failed my practical board exam.
23:41And Mali's helping me study.
23:43You failed your...
23:45You're helping him?
23:46Just to study.
23:47Nothing else.
23:48No, you don't get to say my name.
23:49And you were unbelievable.
23:51I was doing him on the whole fever and glands thing.
23:55The acne.
23:55It was just part of the whole teenager thing.
23:57Izzy, would you...
23:58Wait.
23:59I say I like the guy, and you can't stop hating him.
24:01Izzy, you...
24:02And as soon as he screws me over...
24:04Izzy, you're his new best friend.
24:05He failed his boards.
24:06This is important.
24:07He cheated on me.
24:08Busted?
24:09Yeah, I'm busted.
24:10His exam is tomorrow.
24:11You're in on this, too?
24:13He cheated on me.
24:14God.
24:15I told you she'd find out.
24:16Oh, of course you're in on this.
24:17She let him touch her boobs.
24:19He cheated on me with Georgia's skanky siffner.
24:22That is just plain rude.
24:23We know he cheated on you.
24:25That's why we let you turn the living room into Santa's freaking village.
24:29What?
24:29We're not big on holidays.
24:31You know that.
24:32But we're trying to be supportive because you're having a hard time.
24:35But right now, Alex, he's having a harder time.
24:38Why does everybody care what kind of time Alex is having?
24:41Because he's dirty Uncle Sal.
24:44Sorry?
24:46He's dirty Uncle Sal.
24:47The one who embarrasses everyone at family reunions and who can't be left alone with the teenage girls,
24:52but you invite him to the picnic anyway.
24:56Sorry?
24:57I have a mother who doesn't recognize me.
25:00As far as family goes, this hospital, you guys are it.
25:03So I know you're pissed at Alex, but maybe you could try to help him anyway.
25:08Sort of like in the spirit of this holiday, you keep shoving down everybody's throats.
25:16Ew.
25:17What?
25:19Boob?
25:20Dr. Scott to the cat lab.
25:21Dr. Scott to the cat lab.
25:23Hey, sonny, get in here!
25:25Doctor here!
25:26Now!
25:26Doctor, get in here!
25:28Do something!
25:29Do something!
25:32We're taking you to surgery.
25:34Cut her now!
25:38It's about time.
25:42Sorry, I got sidetracked.
25:44Nadia Shelton's ulcer perforated.
25:46She's vomiting blood by the pint.
25:50Is the chief back?
25:51I haven't seen it.
25:52No.
25:54All right, both of you scrub in.
25:56I'm going to need all the help I can get.
25:58Oh.
25:58Well, there it is.
26:04Left side of his frontal lobe.
26:06Now, why didn't we see that before?
26:09Intercerebral bleeds can have a delayed presentation.
26:11Right.
26:12You want to get him out of there?
26:13Uh, just prep an OR.
26:14I'm going to talk to his wife.
26:16Dr. Stevens?
26:18Nice talking to you.
26:21Think she'll ever talk to me again?
26:22Am I invisible?
26:25I'm feeling strangely invisible.
26:28Also inaudible.
26:30What?
26:31Another surgery?
26:33So I guess dinner shopping is out?
26:35Yeah.
26:36It's not going to happen tonight.
26:37I'm sorry.
26:38No, you're not.
26:39I'm just trying to figure out why you're not.
26:41It's Christmas, Derek.
26:42Yeah.
26:44No.
26:45It's our season.
26:46What's going on?
26:46Are you mad?
26:47Are you depressed?
26:48What?
26:48No.
26:50Mr. Epstein here is depressed.
26:51He's bleeding from his frontal lobe.
26:53Everything's fine.
26:54We're fine, Annie.
26:54You know, just, I'll see you at home.
26:56Okay?
26:59You need a second surgery, Mr. Epstein.
27:02Frontal lobe is difficult.
27:04We may be able to improve things, but, uh,
27:07you should be prepared for the possibility that things could get worse.
27:10That's great.
27:12That's just great.
27:14I'm so glad we came to this hospital so I could be treated by a bunch of quacks
27:18who don't know their asses from the inside of my skull.
27:26This isn't my husband.
27:29This is not my husband.
27:31He doesn't speak to me this way.
27:32He doesn't speak to anyone this way.
27:34I know this is difficult, Mrs. Epstein,
27:35but the important thing right now is that we stop the bleeding.
27:38He's the love of my life.
27:42And I know that you have a lot of other patients and only do a lot of other surgeries.
27:48He's the love of my life.
27:50I just, I just need your word that you would treat this change in my husband's personality
27:55as seriously as you would a fatal cancer.
27:59Because that's the way this feels to me and my kids.
28:01We were happy.
28:03We were a happy family.
28:04And just, if you could just fix it.
28:08Just fix it.
28:11Safety.
28:12I'm going to do everything in my power, all right?
28:14Okay?
28:16I didn't want it.
28:18I already got one new heart.
28:21I didn't deserve another one.
28:23Justin, you don't have to feel guilty about having a new heart.
28:27God wants you to live.
28:29That's why he sent you the heart.
28:30I'm not stupid, okay?
28:31God didn't send me the heart.
28:33And there's no such thing as God.
28:34Justin!
28:35Marianne.
28:36Marianne.
28:38Is all right?
28:39The heart I have now.
28:41My mom told me the heart came from Santa.
28:44I thought Al's made it in their factory.
28:47Or whatever.
28:49But that's not true, is it?
28:51No, it isn't.
28:53Yeah.
28:54Because I heard the nurses talking.
28:56Where it really came from is some other kid.
28:58Some other kid had to die so I could live.
29:01Justin.
29:03Baby.
29:04And then I grew that kid's heart.
29:07So for the last two years, my mom has been praying that another kid would die for me.
29:12That's what you pray for all the time.
29:17Isn't it, Mom?
29:21That's what she prays for, Father.
29:24How does God feel about that?
29:27Justin.
29:29Justin.
29:29Justin.
29:29Justin.
29:31Justin, baby.
29:33Wake up, Justin.
29:34Nurse!
29:36Oh, please, no.
29:37Help me.
29:38No, no, please.
29:39Code blue.
29:40Justin.
29:41Just stay back.
29:41Justin, dear brother.
29:43Code blue.
29:44Pediatric CCU.
29:45Code black.
29:45Justin, baby, I'm writing.
29:47Baby, Justin, I love you.
29:48Please, Justin, shut her up.
29:50Crash card coming in.
29:51Please invade him.
29:52Charge the paddle to 100.
29:54Charge.
29:54Clear.
29:55Jell.
29:56Clear.
29:56It's too soon now.
30:00You're all around me.
30:04I'm waiting so long.
30:07Guess I'll be here a little longer.
30:14Here comes your right.
30:19Can you get him back on the donor's list?
30:21I mean, if it's a bad heart.
30:22It's not a bad heart.
30:23What, can you get him back on the list?
30:25He's waiting two years for this heart.
30:26He has to fight for it.
30:27He has to decide he wants to live.
30:29Okay, medically speaking, is there anything else we haven't done?
30:32The way you're feeling right now,
30:34it's why I have to believe in something bigger than me.
30:36Because if I didn't, that powerlessness would eat me alive.
30:41Drill, please.
30:51Any danger with two craniotomies in one day?
30:55No more than with one.
30:56Is there any music?
31:02Any requests?
31:03Christmas carols.
31:04Or Hanukkah.
31:06Is there such a thing as Hanukkah carols?
31:10That is a mysterious thing, Dr. Steeles.
31:13You never know what may penetrate the psyche.
31:15Oh, look at that.
31:21Kissing ulcers.
31:22One's perf, the other one's bleeding.
31:25Two ulcers.
31:26Not surprised with that family.
31:29Guy said I'd thrown them out.
31:30Why didn't I throw them out?
31:31That's what I should have done.
31:33I don't know why I didn't.
31:34Stop whining, O'Malley.
31:35You had the chance.
31:36You didn't take it.
31:37Move on.
31:39Right.
31:40Sorry.
31:41Do not kick me.
31:43Excuse me?
31:45Are you kicking me under the table, O'Malley?
31:48No.
31:49Then clearly I wasn't talking to you.
31:57You cannot kick me while I'm doing my job.
32:09Wake up.
32:21God, no wonder you failed your boards.
32:23What do you expect to learn this stuff by osmosis?
32:25What are you doing here?
32:26I'm a farmer, okay?
32:28I've been drooling, puking, and crapping my pants.
32:32And you came here to help me study?
32:34Well, I'm not actually crapping my pants now, am I?
32:36Well, why would you want to help me after what I did?
32:43Because it's what Jesus would freaking do!
32:46You know, I don't believe in Santa either, Justin.
33:15Or God.
33:19I believe in medicine.
33:23And it's a medical miracle you're alive.
33:27And with the heart you had, you should have died two weeks after you were born.
33:33Except some surgeon figured out a way to give you someone else's heart, which is so much cooler than Santa.
33:39So I'm just saying, I think you should decide to live.
33:53Live so you can become a doctor, and you can find a way to do heart transplants without someone having to die.
33:59Or, you know, live so you can grow up and have kids, and, you know what, raise them not to believe in Santa.
34:09Man, that would piss your mom off.
34:15Just decide to live.
34:17Because in your case, dying really isn't the best revenge.
34:25When half-stained was the night.
34:34How is she?
34:42Is she going to be all right?
34:43She lost a lot of blood, but we were able to replace it and repair the tear.
34:48She's going to require several days' observation, but she should have a full recovery.
34:53Oh, thank God.
34:54Thank God is right.
34:55Because we're certainly not going to thank you.
34:58We should sue you for all you're worth.
35:01We sat here and sat here and sat here and sat here and sat here and watched you take a patient after patients.
35:08You got your second chance.
35:10She's going to screw it up.
35:11Well, you made my daughter wait for three whole days for her operation.
35:14I should sue you and this whole damn hospital.
35:17Okay, yeah, you could sue us.
35:19Or you could consider the possibility of shutting the hell up.
35:23What did she say to me?
35:25Did you hear what...
35:26I heard you can't talk to an old lady like that.
35:28Where is my daughter?
35:29I'd like to see her.
35:30Well, you can't.
35:31I'm her doctor.
35:32She is my patient.
35:33And this is a hospital, which is the kind of place where people can generally use a little peace and quiet.
35:37So, no, right now you can't see her.
35:41And I'm not saying this because you just threatened to sue Dr. Bailey,
35:44who spent the last several hours saving your daughter's life, saving your wife's life.
35:48I'm saying this because she is my patient.
35:50And she is in the recovery wing of this hospital trying to recover.
35:53And visiting hours are over.
35:55So, good night.
35:58And Merry Christmas.
36:05And turns to emotional.
36:11Apologies.
36:12Oh, is the nausea constant or intermittent?
36:24Constant.
36:28When?
36:30When it first started?
36:34After I worked in the fields all day.
36:35Do you have any allergies you're aware of?
36:44No.
36:57Izzy.
36:58I never wanted to hurt you.
37:06You didn't hurt me.
37:07I don't even know you.
37:09I'm a farmer.
37:12You used your...
37:13You're still the patient?
37:15What does it look like?
37:22It's organophosphates.
37:25Pesticide poisoning.
37:26Crying is a symptom.
37:29That's it, right?
37:30I mean...
37:34How are you doing?
37:52Hey.
37:52You okay?
37:59Hello?
38:00Yeah, yeah.
38:02You know, holidays.
38:04Yeah.
38:06I do know.
38:16Merry Christmas.
38:17Merry Christmas.
38:18Merry Christmas.
38:18Merry Christmas.
38:22Double scotch, single moment.
38:31You're a good man.
38:34Hey, Dr. Shepard.
38:37Dr. Shepard?
38:38So, how's Mr. Epstein's front and low?
38:49You woke up smiling.
38:51Congratulations.
38:54What are you drinking?
38:57It's a hot butter rum.
38:59It's delicious.
39:00It's Tickensia.
39:00Oh, well, yeah, it is Christmas.
39:04Christmas, Derek.
39:05We love Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:06Christmas.
39:08Yes, we used to.
39:14Christmas makes you want to be with people you love.
39:20Oh, I got this.
39:22I'm not saying this to hurt you.
39:25Because I want to leave you.
39:26Because I don't.
39:29Meredith wasn't a fling.
39:33She wasn't revenge.
39:34I fell in love with her.
39:35I fell in love with her.
39:44That doesn't go away because I decided to stay with you.
39:52There's an old proverb that says you can't choose your family.
39:57You take what the fates hand you.
40:06You take what the fates hand you.
40:06You take what the fates hand you.
40:06On the climbing way.
40:08With painful steps and snow.
40:13Look now.
40:15We're mad at home.
40:16And like them or not.
40:19Love them or not.
40:21Understand them or not.
40:24Justin took a turn.
40:26His fever's down and his feet beat myself.
40:30I wonder what got through to him.
40:33I don't know.
40:40You cope.
40:51It's pretty.
40:56Yeah.
40:56Then there's the school of thought that says the family you're born into is simply a starting point.
41:04What are we doing?
41:06Lights.
41:16They feed you and clothe you and take care of you until you're ready to go out into the world.
41:23And find your drive.
