FADE IN:
INT. SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL -- NIGHT
It is early in the morning at Seattle Grace hospital. Izzie, Meredith, George, Cristina and Alex are all in the locker room changing into their scrubs. Izzie is leaning on a locker eating what else but her usual apple. Everyone looks half asleep.
IZZIE
How much more time do we have to serve?
GEORGE
Izzie, its a residency not a prison term.
IZZIE
A surgical residency is a prison term.
Cristina looks into her planner.
CRISTINA
To be exact, 6 years and 361 days.
GEORGE
You're keeping count?
CRISTINA
What like you don't?
MEREDITH
Are you sure? 6 years and 361 days exactly?
CRISTINA
Not including today.
IZZIE
Why wouldn't you count today? The suns not even up yet.
CRISTINA
If I've gotten out of bed it counts as a day.
MEREDITH
What if you spend the whole day in bed?
CRISTINA
Then Burke would be one very happy man.
ALEX
I didn't need to hear that.
Bailey enters.
BAILEY
Let's go all. We've got four victims of a car accident coming in. Two major two minor. Let's move it!
The interns lazily begin to leave the locker room.
MEREDITH
What were people doing out driving this early?
GEORGE
We were out driving this early.
CUT TO:
INT. SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL -- MOMENTS LATER
The interns are rolling in three gurneys. Izzie and Alex are rolling in a gurney holding a teenage boy, JOSHUA. Meredith and Alex are rolling in a gurney with a man in his forties, Cristina and Bailey are rolling in a gurney with a woman in her forties.
BAILEY
Let's bring him to trauma one. Let's move!
CUT TO:
INT. SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL -- MOMENTS LATER
We cut back and forth between Bailey and Cristina treating the woman and Meredith in Alex treating the man. After working hard to revive the patients, they both die. After the woman dies Bailey looks through the window to the trauma room where Alex and Meredith were treating the man. Meredith shakes her head.
BAILEY
Time of death, 6:02.
Izzie enters.
BAILEY
Was there any family?
PARAMEDIC
Their daughter was in the car. She's being treated in trauma three.
BAILEY
How old?
PARAMEDIC
Not sure. She looked 9 or 10.
BAILEY
Thanks.
IZZIE
Dr. Bailey? We need your help in trauma 4. The driver of the vehicle that ran the red light is waking up.
BAILEY
I'll be right there.
IZZIE
He didn't make it?
BAILEY
No.
Izzie looks at the patient and her eyes widen.
IZZIE
Oh my god.
BAILEY
What?
IZZIE
Its, its Mr. Carson.
BAILEY
You know him?
Izzie looks directly at the paramedic.
IZZIE
Where's the daughter?
THEME SONG
INT. SEATTLE GRACE HOSPITAL -- MORNING
We now see a 16-year-old boy, LOGAN MATTHISON, sitting in bed. Bailey enters very coldly.
LOGAN
Are they okay? The family I hit?
Bailey holds up her finger in front of his eyes.
BAILEY
Follow my finger.
Logan follows it with his eyes.
LOGAN
I don't know how it happened. I'm a very careful driver. I, I even scored a perfect on my exam. My Dad said I was a natural driver.
BAILEY
Hold out your arms and close your eyes.
Logan holds out his arms.
LOGAN
He says it's cause of all those race car video games I used to play.
BAILEY
You can open your eyes and put your arms down now.
Bailey begins to write on his chart.
LOGAN
Did you call him? My Dad?
BAILEY
No.
Logan sighs of relief.
BAILEY
You worried about him finding out about the crash? Or your huffing?
LOGAN
You know about that?
BAILEY
It's kinda hard to hide that kind of thing from a drug test.
LOGAN
Look, I don't do it all the time. Just on the weekends and stuff to relax.
BAILEY
It's Monday morning.
Logan looks disappointed in himself.
LOGAN
It was a really tough week.
BAILEY
I see.
Logan looks down, not sure what to say.
LOGAN
Look, um, is my aunt here? She works at this hospital.
BAILEY
Who's your aunt?
LOGAN
Addie Montgomery...or Shephard. I'm not sure what she goes by now. It's kind of hard to keep track.
BAILEY
Yeah, shes here alright.
LOGAN
Could you get her for me?
BAILEY
I'll see if she's busy.
LOGAN
Thanks.
