It's not a conscious decision to help out the soon-to-be born baby, but his feet drag him into Dr. Montgomery's OR. Sloan's probably going to be pissed when he realizes he's ditched the chores assigned to him just to go help the OBGYN.
Dr. Montgomery's reaction isn't all that pretty when he rushes into her surgery, but soon she seems relieved to have him there--well, after he's calmed the baby down, she's cool with having him there.
He sure as hell never counted on finding obstetrics interesting, never thought he'd find it so stress-relieving. He is so used to the adrenaline of surgery, and he was just happy to see a successful surgery. With neo-natal though, there is the part of carrying the baby, of someone coming out unaware of the pain and hurt in the world. Neo-natal turned out to have a lot of benefits, something he had found out on his short-lived services with Dr. Montgomery.
Yeah, because it was the neo-natal specialty he missed, not the head of that specialty. No, he didn't miss that stern, illogical woman, Dr. Montgomery.
And yeah, Sloan is hard on him when he finds out he opted to go into Dr. Montgomery's surgery rather than do what Sloan told him to. Even told him his career in plastics was over, but Dr. Karev didn't find himself as angry or disappointed as he should have. Strangely, a hint of relief hits his system instead. No plastics? Well, where to now?
