Seattle Grace Hospital – Outside Courtyard

Alex, Izzy, George and Meredith are sitting outside talking during lunch.

Cristina walks up to the group, plops down in the chair, dropping her tray onto the table "I'm through!"

"Well, hello Mary Sunshine"

"I am so tired of not getting in on Burke's procedures. It's ridiculous!"

Izzy's looking at Cristina "What is your problem? You're in on plenty of Burke's procedures."

"She's just mad because he doesn't choose her." George continues a little cockier "Yup, I don't have that problem because I'm Burke's guy." Cristina is now glaring at George and, realizing she's really upset, he goes back to eating his sandwich.

Alex can't resist joining in "You know what you should do is complain to the Chief that your boyfriend won't let you operate!"

Cristina is now furiously stabbing at her salad "Why are the two of you even talking?"

Meredith tries to add some reason to the situation "Cristina, he's your boyfriend"

"Mer, I think I know that"

Meredith continues "He's your boyfriend and he can't pick you for surgeries because he's your boyfriend. It would look unfair."

"McDreamy picks you."

"Well he's not my boyfriend anymore" Cristina and Izzy both shoot her a look "and, besides, he's not as much of a rules guy as Burke."

Dissatisfied with her salad, Cristina begins ripping the label off of her water "Whatever. When we're at work we're attending and intern. Not boyfriend/girlfriend. What is so complicated about that?"

Izzy and Meredith glance at each other then Izzy tries again "Seriously? That's an impossible line to maintain. Ultimately he's your boyfriend."

Cristina won't let it go "I'm a surgeon. I have an edge. I am smart, a hard worker. I deserve to get picked. That's what's not fair."

"Yang, you're an intern dating an attending. Scratch that. You're an intern living with an attending. Fair's out the window. Get over it!"

Cristina sighs and George takes advantage to get one last dig in "Did I mention I was Burke's guy?"

Everyone at the table laughs except for Cristina "Yeah everybody's someone's guy. You know what, the two of you can scratch my..."

Before Cristina can finish Bailey walks up to the table "Dr. Yang if you're done whining I'd really like it if all of you would GET BACK TO TRYING TO SAVE LIVES! PEOPLE ARE DYING AND YOU'RE ALL DOWN HERE TALKING ABOUT THINGS BEING FAIR! MOVE ALL OF YOU!"
