Teddy: So I know I dumped a lot on your plate. And it's not fair to you or Christina. I had to tell you.
Owen: I know.
Cut to next Scene
Bailey: So do we know who is the next to go?
Dr. Weber: No, not yet. Why?
Bailey: All I'm saying is we have some talented interns who may end up helping this hospital instead of harming it. But how can they do that if they're all gone.
Dr. Weber: Dr. Bailey, this is something that I would prefer not to talk about.......EVER.
Bailey: Yes sir.
Cut to next scene:
Sloan: How are you ?
(Karev is standing there in a shock, looking at Pamela Anderson sitting on the bed)
Pamela Anderson: I'm good Mark how are you?
Sloan: Better now that you're here. (They both smile at each other) This is my intern Alex Karev. He's going to be helping out with the surgery today.
Pamela Anderson: Two very handsome doctors, I definitely came to the right place.
Sloan: Pamela is only here to make sure everything is okay with her breast augmentation.
Karev: (with a smirk on his face) okay.
Cut to next scene:
Meredith: upstairs...Iz, do you think it's a good idea to continue to follow him around work...I mean, let him come to you when he's ready.
Izzie: Meredith, My husband hates me! He hates me. He won't talk to me, he ignores me. I need him! I love him! If you think that I'm going to let that Redhead twig steal my husband.....yeah right! not without a fight.
Cut to next Scene:
Izzie: YOU! I WANT YOU!
Alex: Well you can't have me!
Izzie: why? give me a reason.
Alex: You! you're my reason. You left me. I gave you me and you left me. So you cannot have me. (Alex grabs the doorknob and gets closely to Iz. Iz takes a breath in remembering his scent.) Leave me the hell alone! I'm at work.
Cut to next scene:
Christina: We need a break
Owen: What?
Cut to next Scene:
Christina: Are you back?
Izzie: Yup (looks at Alex)
Meredith Voiceover: Frankie Lymon once sang "Why do fools fall in Love". Well, as surgeons it's hard not to fall in love. We fall in love with the O.R, the rush of a scalpel in our hands, the sight of an open heart on the table and sometimes just sometimes we fall in love with each other. Does that make us fools? Sometimes!
Scene 1:
(Alex is on the couch of Christina's and Callie's apartment, Callie walks in and turns on the light)
Alex: TURN IT OFF!
Callie: (Screams) What are you doing here?
Christina comes running out of her bedroom
Christina: What's going on?
Callie: That's what I want to know.
Alex: I moved out the trailer and Yang is helping out by letting me crash here for awhile, now turn the light off!
Callie: What?!
Christina: He doesn't want to be around her.
Callie: But you have to work with her, so you're going to see her regardless.
Alex: Yeah but not when I can control it.
Christina: Look, he said he would pay some of the rent
Callie: Alright, welcome Karev.
(Alex gets up to go to the bathroom wearing nothing but his boxers)
Christina: Gross, put some clothes on.
Alex: you know you like it Yang.
Christina: Whatever! (looking him up and down, shaking her head) I need a rebound.
Callie: He does look good.
(they look at each other as they both go into there rooms)
Scene 2: (Resident locker room. Meredith and Christina are getting ready for the day)
Meredith: So how is your new roomie? (chuckles)
Christina: Whatever! He's annoying.
Meredith: Where is he? Rounds are about to start.
(Alex rushes into the room and gives Christina a dirty eye)
Alex: Thanks yang!
Christina: Hey it's not my job to wake you up.
Alex: You use to walk in with Burke all the time.
Christina: Hey! I was sleeping with him and if you want an alarm clock, move back in with your WIFE.
Alex: You're a doche.
Christina: That's what they tell me.
(Meredith starts to laugh...Just then Izzie walks in)
Alex: Speaking of doches.
Meredith: Alex!
(Christina grins)
Izzie: (looks at the three of them) Hey.
(The three begin to leave the locker room)
Meredith: Hey Iz
Christina: Hey
(Alex ignores her and walks out)
Christina: (They walk down the hallway) You're not going to say anything to her?
Alex: The moment you grow some balls and confront Altman and Hunt, I'll gladly talk to it.
(They both look up to see Altman and Hunt in the hallway laughing)
Alex: Geez, he doesn't waste any time.
(Christina stands with a semi upset look on her face)
Scene 4: All the residents are paged into the meeting room. Meredith, Christina, and Alex are all leaning against the window seal. Izzie walks in and sits next to another resident. She continues to look at Alex.
Christina: She's looking at you.
Alex: Shut up.
(Just then the Chief walks in with Bailey)
Chief Weber: Thanks for all coming, I know what you're all thinking and unfortunately it's true. We have to let go of two more people. There will be a person here from H.R basically checking on you. They will be walking around the hospital examining any and everything possible to put against you. Be wise people! (the chief exits)
(Christina, Meredith and Alex look at one another)
Christina: Geez, two more cuts
Meredith: When will this end?
Alex: I don't know but why should two more people leave when he just re-hired one.
(Alex goes and runs after the chief)
Alex: Excuse me chief, I don't understand how you gave Izzie her job back when we're still losing people.
Chief: Karev, I thought you would be happy.
Alex: With all do respect sir, I'm not.
Chief: Well, Dr. Stevens, excuse me Dr. Karev is a good doctor and frankly when a doctor comes to me and begs for their job back to help save their marriage I try and understand. (He gives Alex a parental look)
Alex: Well sir there is no marriage to save. (He walks away)
Scene 5: Bailey and the residents are at the nurses station.
Bailey: Good to have you back Stevens. Well, it's quiet today. But these are the days to be scared because at any moment anything can happen. But for now you all will pair up. If anything should happen expect my page. Grey and stevens you will be with Sheperd, Karev and Reed are with Altman, Yang you're with Torres and Williams you're with Hunt. Go people.
Izzie: (passing Bailey) It's good to be back.
Izzie and Meredith are walking down the hall to a patients room to meet Derek
Izzie: God, it's good to be back!
Meredith: Yeah.....it is.
Izzie: I know that things are weird but I don't want to lose you as a friend, as a sister. I mean you and George were my family...
Meredith: Are your family... and so are Christina and Alex. He just needs time, Iz.
Izzie: I know...I know
(They walk into the room with Derek and a young girl lying in the bed)
Derek: Awww...Sharon, these are my two residents. This is and Dr. Stevens.
Izzie: Dr. Karev
Derek: Aww..yes, Dr. Karev got married and I'm still trying to adjust.
Sharon: Congrats. I can't wait until I get married.
Izzie: Oh! your engaged?
Sharon: No. But my boyfriend is going to ask any day now. (with a hopeful look on her face)
Derek: Well that's good. (Looks at Meredith) Dr. Grey?
Meredith: 25 year old female, in a minor car accident. She is getting a CT and MRI for a checkup.
Sharon: Well that's good right? I mean I feel okay.
Izzie: Well, we always just want to be safe.
Derek: Exactly...so we are going to order that MRI and Dr. Grey and Dr. Stevens will be keeping an eye on you.
Izzie: Karev
Derek: Right...Dr. Karev
Sharon: Sounds good.
(All the doctors walk out)
Scene 6: Dr. Altman, Alex and Dr. Reed are standing in a patient's room
Altman: How are you today Mr. and Mrs. Darcey?
Mr. Darcey: I'm alright, I'll be better when I'm back at home.
Altman: Well we are going to do everything we can. Dr. Karev.
Alex: 57 year old man with serious cardiomyopathy conditions. His symptoms are Abdominal swelling, Dizziness, High blood pressure and cough....may be caused by extra liquid building up in the lungs, secondary to heart failure.
Altman: Very good Dr. Karev and Dr. Reed what's the treatment?
Dr. Reed: Well, we can treat it by Left ventricular assist device or Dynamic cardiomyoplasty or medication depending on the seriousness.
Altman: Very Good. In 's case we are going to do the Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty and go from there as far as the medication is concerned.
Mrs. Darcey: What is that exactly? I mean will my husband be okay?
Dr. Karev: It's a procedure in which a flap created from a patient's chest muscle is trained to contract and often wrapped around the heart to help it contract.
Mrs. Darcey: That sounds dangerous...will he be ok?
Altman: We are going to try our best. Right now we are going to monitor his heart and book the O.R.
Mr. Darcey: How long will this take?
Dr. Reed: Surgery will be in 2 hours and it will last for 2 to 3 hours.
Mr. Darcey: So we should make ourselves comfortable?
Altman: Yes.
(All the doctors walk out. Reed tries to catch up to Alex)
Reed: I see your wife is back. That's good.
Alex: (looking at Mr. Darcey's chart) Why are you talking to me about this?
Reed: I just thought maybe you were happy again and going to try to work things out.
Alex: Well, don't worry about me.
Reed: I know if I were Izzie, I would want to work things out (looking at him with her brown puppy eyes bitting her bottom lip)
Especially if he looked like you.
(With his eyes, Alex gives her a questionable look)
(Reed walks away)
Scene 7: Alex, Meredith, Lexie and Christina are sitting at the lunch table
Alex: So Dr. Red is soooo into me.
Meredith: What?
Alex: Red. She wants me.
Christina: You mean to tell other than Izzie, someone ELSE finds you attractive. OMG.
Lexie: Well you're not going to do anything are you? I mean, you're married.
Alex: Don't worry, I'll be taking care of that shortly.
Meredith: You're getting a divorce?
Christina: Wow Alex, I thought you would've tried to work things out. I never thought you would be the one to give up.
Alex: Whatever! She gave up on me when she said she couldn't forgive me.
Meredith: She didn't mean that.
Lexie: Yeah when girls are mad they say things like that to get the guy thinking.
Alex: Mission accomplished. You know I've fought for her for 5 years. I mean I did do some screwed up things but I changed for her.
Meredith and Christina: True.
Alex: Now it's her turn to fight for me. I should be fought for. She should change for me.
Lexie: True.
(Altman and Owen walk in and go to the table where all the attendings are sitting)
Christina: Oh God, there's the happy new couple.
Meredith: How do you know their a couple?
Alex: Cause they look like it.
Meredith: Alex!
Alex: They do... she's so freakin hot.
Christina: Shut up. "I should be fought for", you're so lame. (looking at Alex and taking a bite of her salad) So Meredith, how is your happy marriage?
Meredith: (sitting, nodding, and eating) it's good.
Christina: Nevermind, I don't wanna know.
Alex: I don't care.
Scene 8: (Derek and Bailey are walking and dicussing procedures when they saw Izzie eating in a empty patient's room)
Bailey: What are you doing in here?
Izzie: Oh, I umm...I wanted to eat and work.
Derek: Where's the work.
Izzie: At the nurses station.
Someones pager goes off and they all look
Bailey: That's me, it's the chief.
(Bailey leaves)
Derek: Avoiding someone?
Izzie: something like that.
(Derek sits down in the chair)
Derek: You know it's not going to go away. You're going to have to confront him.
Izzie: I don't want to...not right now. Every time I go near him, he runs.
Derek: Look, Karev is the guy who doesn't like to feel emotions. But he did. It's going to take him some time.
Izzie: Yeah, your wife gave me the same speech.
Derek: That's cause she's smart. Remember Karev when you first started?
Izzie: Ohhh God, yes.
Derek: He doesn't resemble the same person. He fought for you. Through Denny, George, your cancer and now this. I think a person can only fight for so long before they feel defeated. He's tired.
Izzie: So what are you saying?
Derek: If you want something, fight for it! Fight!
(Izzie begins to smile and Derek gets up and leaves)
Izzie: Thanks Dr. Sheperd.
Derek: You're welcome Dr. Karev (and gives her a smile back)
Scene 9: Christina is at the phlebotomy lab window getting a patient's bloodwork results.
Christina: Come on, the patient could be done with surgery already. (she is talking to the phlebotomist)
Phlebotomist: You should learn how to wait patiently Dr. Yang! (hands Christina the results)
Christina: Whatever! (She looks through the lab results in the chart)
Owen: Hey
Christina: (looks up from the chart) Hey (in a soft voice)
Owen: (whispers) I miss you.
Christina looks at him wanting to say it back but stays quiet.
Owen: I think about you all the time.
Christina: I....I have a patient I have to get back to.
(Owen stands there looking at her walk down the hallway. She slips into a room and begins to stand there breathing hard)
Scene 10: Alex and Reed are washing there hands for Mr. Darcey'surgery
Alex: Stop sexing me up with your eyes.
Reed: I'm not sexing you up with my eyes. (she chuckles)
Alex: Yeah right. If you want me it's ok. Most women do.
Reed: Oh goodness (blushing)
Alex: Do you really want to be the other woman? (He walks up to her as she is still washing her hands)
Reed: Do you want me to be the other woman?
Alex: I'll get back to you. (he pushes the button to get into the operating room)
Scene 11: Derek, Izzie and Meredith are in Sharon's room.
Derek: Sharon, we found some bleeding in your frontal lobe. We are going to have to operate as soon as possible. Dr. Grey has booked an O.R so we are going to prep you and we will be on our way.
Sharon: Okay, is my boyfriend here.
Izzie: What's his name?
Sharon: Sean.
Meredith: We'll call him.
Scene 12: Izzie, Meredith and Derek are in Surgery with Sharon
Derek: Did you get a hold of Sean.
Izzie: Yes, he said he will be here.

Derek: (looking at Izzie smiling) Exactly! Alright, let's finish up and get her home.
Scene 13: Christina and Meredith are at Joe's sitting in a booth.
Christina: (takes a sip of her beer) He told me he misses me.
Meredith: So now what? (takes a sip)

(Izzie walks in)
Izzie: Hey
Meredith and Christina: Hey
Izzie: Dirty Martini please (she says to Joe). I'm going to fight!
Christina: What? (confused)
Izzie: I have to fight if I want my marriage to work.
Meredith: Good for you Iz.
Christina: The sooner the better so he can leave my place.
Izzie: I miss him. (takes a sip of her drink)
Christina: He has to miss you too for this plan to work and you better move fast because Red is crushin on him big time. ( takes another sip)
Izzie: What?
Meredith: Reed has been flirting with Alex all day. (takes a sip)
Christina looks over at the bar
Christina: The day is not done and neither is she (takes another sip)
All three look at the bar as Reed and Alex are talking and drinking. Reed is giving Alex flirty eye suggestions. Izzie begins to get mad as her face turns red.
Meredith Voiceover: Why do fools fall in love. Because as humans we need to feel loved, the rush of someone holding us, thinking of us and giving love.
But no one ever said keeping our love was easy. I guess the reality of love...is what makes us fools. Sometimes.
