Later that day Callie was still babysitting the kids. She was so happy to see Maggie arriving because this meant that she can now go see Arizona. She didn't even give Maggie a chance to settle down. When Maggie came in the front door Callie was already at the car. While making her way to the car she shouted instructions to Maggie regarding the kids. Callie made her way over to Arizona's house. She was nervous because she didn't know what to expect.
Barbara
Callie? Hi, what are you doing here?
Callie
I came to check on Arizona. Sofia asked me to send hugs and kisses.
Barbara
I really don't think it is a good idea for you to see her.
Callie
Why not? Why can't I see her?
Barbara
She is not herself. She might say things she doesn't mean.
Callie
I can handle her. I know her. I've seen it all, you know. When she lost her leg, she wouldn't come out our room for days. She wouldn't do anything. So I think I can help her right now.
Barbara
Callie, to be honest actually, as her mother I don't want you here now.
Callie
Oh, may I ask why?
Barbara
As her mother I don't think I should be answering that also.
Callie
Did I do something to offend her? Is it because I stayed the night? Did I upset her because if I did something wrong, I would like to fix it.
Barbara
No you didn't do anything wrong but I'm afraid that if I let you in, you'll make things worse. I know you want to help but trust me when I say; you staying away are the best way to help now.
Callie
Okay I understand. Would you at least give her hugs and kisses from Sofia?
Barbara
Of course I will.
Callie
And you'll call if you need anything?
Barbara
We'll call if we need anything.
Callie
Okay, see you tomorrow, I guess.
Barbara didn't want Callie to see Arizona because the conversation with her daughter was still on her mind. She doesn't want her daughter to get attached to Callie again just to have her heart broken when Callie leaves. She is protecting her daughter. Barbara knows Callie means well but she has to look out for Arizona's feelings. Barbara herself doesn't know what to do to get Arizona to eat or speak at least but she will not let Callie see what a mess Arizona is right now.
Barbara
Arizona, you need to eat please.
There was no reply from Arizona. She was just lying in her bed staring at the roof. She did not once look at her mother. She was angry, angry at life.
Barbara
Can I run you a bath maybe? Do you maybe want to go get dinner at that nice Italian place?
Still she didn't get any reply and now she was at wits end. She tried everything. She decided to leave Arizona. When Tim died both her and her husband was there to help Arizona through things. Now it is only her and she don't know how to do this on her own. So she decided to give Arizona some more time alone in her room. Back at Mer's house Callie is restless. She is walking around in the house. She keeps checking her phone. She just can't sit still for one second.
Mer
Do you need tequila or something?
Callie
No, big day tomorrow remember.
Mer
The memorial, is that why you're restless?
Callie
No. Earlier today Barbara called and asked that I come fetch Sofia. When I got there I learned that Arizona is not doing great. Mer I've been trying to see her the whole day and I can't
Mer
Why not? Why can't you see her?
Callie
Her mom says it is better that way. How? How is it better that way?
Mer
I don't know. Arizona and I are not as close as we are. So I really don't know what that mean. I think it could mean that maybe she is really sad and she doesn't want you to see her like that.
Callie
I have seen her sad. I watched her cry. I know how she is and to be honest, I think I can make her feel better. Actually I know I can because I've done it before.
Mer
Yes you did, as her girlfriend or her wife. Not as her ex-wife. She might not even be the same person now.
Callie
So what? Because I'm her ex I'm not allowed to be near her or comfort her?
Mer
No that's not what I meant. Callie, stop over thinking.
Callie
I can't Mer, not when I don't know what is going on.
Mer
Would it make you relax if I went over to her house and check on her?
Callie
Would you do that?
Mer
Yes because you'd do it for me and also I can't deal with you checking your phone every two seconds.
Callie
Thank you so much Mer.
Meredith made her why over to Arizona's house. Barbara let her in, in the hopes that maybe she could talk some sense into Arizona. Maybe she'll be able to get Arizona to eat. Barbara told Meredith everything that's been happening today. She told Mer how she tried everything to get Arizona to eat or to get out of bed but Arizona refused.
Mer
Hi Robbins, how are you feeling?
I was thinking maybe me, you, Zola and Sofia could go get some pizza, what do you think?
Arizona turned around and looked to the other side. Her back was now facing Mer. Mer knew this was her queue to leave. She knew that she was not the one who would able to get Arizona out of her room. So Mer said goodbye and told Arizona that Arizona should call if she needs anything.
Mer
I tried but she isn't speaking.
Barbara
I know she's not but thank you for trying. Can I ask you something?
Mer
Yeah, sure you can.
Barbara
I know Callie is living with you. Did she send you?
Mer
She didn't ask me to come but I did come to check on Arizona on behalf of Callie. Callie was restless so I offered to come check on Arizona.
Barbara
I'm not trying to keep her away from Arizona you know. I'm just protecting my daughter.
Mer
You don't have to protect her from Callie. You really don't.
Barbara
I know but Arizona doesn't want Callie to fix her this time. She is afraid. She doesn't want Callie to fix things because when Callie leaves again she'll fall apart. She wants to learn how to fix things on her own.
Mer
I understand, so I'll respect her wishes. I have to get going now. Feel free to call me anytime. Arizona has my number.
On her way home Mer was contemplating telling Callie of what she saw and what's going. She knew if she told Callie of the state Arizona is in Callie would not hesitate to go over to Arizona's house.
When Mer got home Callie could wait to hear what happened. Mer decided to bend the truth a little and told her that for now Arizona is okay. Mer knew that Callie is still thinking about a future with Arizona but she didn't want Arizona to make decisions when Arizona was at her most vulnerable. Mer felt that if they are to be together it should be at a time where they are both stable enough to realise what their getting into again. She thought if that Callie and Arizona should find their own way back together. She shouldn't be the messenger trying to tell them how the other one feels.
It was the day of the memorial. Callie got herself and Sofia ready. She wanted to go over to Arizona's house before the ceremony, just to check if everything is still okay.
Over Arizona's house was Mer, whom Barbara called after Arizona refused to go to the memorial. Mer decided to call April seeing that she could convince Arizona to get out of bed. When April got there, Arizona had locked her bedroom door. April was talking through the door but it did not help at all. They then called Bailey. Bailey's tough love would maybe to the trick.
Bailey
Where is she?
April
She is in her room, upstairs.
Bailey
Robbins, come on now. Don't make me come in there. I'll break down this door.
I'm serious and if I hurt myself breaking it down, I'll sue your ass. I'm a surgeon I can't be having broken limbs.
Arizona
I'm not going. Go without me.
The four ladies looked at each other. They were hopeless. Bailey suggested they get Webber but then April reminded her that he is in surgery. They were whispering outside her bedroom of possible ways to get her to come out. All of the ways leading to dead ends because April,Bailey and Mer figured that if her own mom couldn't get her out of that room, no one at the hospital could either.
Bailey
I'm not strong enough to kick down this door.
April
Were you serious about that?
Bailey
Well Kepner, do you have any other brighter ideas?
April
No but –
Bailey
But nothing.., move away from the door.
Arizona get away from the door, I'm breaking down this door.
Barbara
No wait! I think I know who can help us.
Bailey
Who?
Barbara.
Meredith, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Bailey
What are you thinking?
Mer
Can't hurt to try, can it?
Bailey
What are you talking about?
Grey?
Meredith and Barbara stared at each other, wondering if this could really work. Kepner felt left out. She could see that the two woman something she didn't. Bailey was getting irritated because she's been asking questions and not getting answers.
Bailey
Grey? Are you going to tell me or what?
Meredith
You'll see Bailey. They'll be here soon.
