Noah was flirting with a red haired nurse over the counter as Izzie slumped in a stool. Cristina came though the door after getting a page from the blonde intern "You get a good case?"

Izzie shook her head before gesturing to Mrs Lu who sat in the bed across from her "No, her. She won't let me sew her up." She paused as the woman spoke again, still not able to understand her "I wouldn't have called you, but I can't get hold of the translator. Can you just ask her what's wrong?"

Cristina looked from Izzie to the woman and back again "No."

"Why not?" Izzie frowned as Noah made his way back over to his patient.

Cristina gave the blonde a blank look "Because I grew up in Beverley Hills. The only Chinese I know is from a Mr. Chow's menu. Besides, I'm Korean."

Just as Cristina left throught the door she came through, Noah strolled over "Did Yang translate?"

Izzie looked up at the man with narrowed eyes before shaking her head. Letting out a scoff, she stood up and walked away.

Noah frowned as he watched the blondes retreating back "What?"


Lennon let out a yelp as Meredith dragged her down into a chair beside her in the lobby, frowning she looked between her friend and the group of interns surrounding them "What are we doing?"

"Interviews." Meredith smiled before turning to the group "What's your favourite 80s group?"

A blonde smiled "Queen."

"Yes."

"No."

Lennon frowned at Meredith "Whats wrong with Queen?"

Meredith shook her head in answer and the only male in the group took the opportunity to answer "Twisted Sister."

Meredith groaned before pulling Lennon up with her. The brunette smirked "I guess we're not gonna take it."

Her friend shot her a look before rolling her eyes as the male intern laughed in appreciation before looking at Meredith with a shrug "It's not like there's a right or wrong answer to that question!"

Lennon shook her head "Oh no, there is."

"The Go-Gos, Duran Duran, Eurythmics..." Meredith trailed off as the two walked away.


Lennon stood with Meredith as they both leant on either side of the doorframe as they looked in on Allison. Derek came to stand between the pair Meredith "I've called every hospital in the county." He said, looking between them before moving to lift Allison's eyelids and shining his torch in them "Sooner or later, the guy that did this is going to seek medical attention, and when he does, that penis you're carrying around is going to nail him."

Lennon frowned "Where is her family?"

Derek looked up "Doesn't have any."

"No siblings?" Meredith asked.

Derek shook his head "No. Both parents are dead." He started, lifting Allison's chart and bringing it outside to the nurses station to update "She just moved to Seattle three weeks ago. Welcome to the city." When neither girl made a sound, he glanced over his shoulder to find them staring in at the woman "Meredith, Lennon, you guys okay?"

Meredith nodded "Yeah. I'm fine, I just," she started looking to Lennon who got the message.

Lennon turned to the man "We have to do something, we have to go."

Derek nodded as the pair set off "Right. I'm going to sit with her."


Lennon and Meredith raced down the stairs "Dr Burke?" The brunette called after the man ahead of them.

Burke's momentum didn't falter as he continued "Mmm?"

"There's a baby up in paeds, we saw him have a tet spell." Lennon started.

"We think we can hear a murmur." Meredith finished just as the pair where able to walk on with either side of the man.

Burke nodded "Mmm. Did paeds call us for a consult?"

Lennon frowned "Actually, no, they're not doing anything about it- "

"So you want me to what?" Burke cut her off.

Meredith glanced up at him "If you could just go up and look at him-"

Burke shook his head interrupting her "Mm-hmm, not without a paeds consult."

Lennon let out a sigh "Yeah, but-"

Burke came to a stop at the bottom of the staircase before turning to look at the pair "I'm a busy man, Grey, Wood, and there are rules. Look, it's not like I'm the Chief of something." He shrugged before leaving behind two disappointed interns.


Lennon sat cross legged in a seat by the window of the lobby, Meredith beside her as the two sulked in silence, the remnants of their lunch on the floor. A rap on the window made them glance up to find Cristina looking down at them before making her way through the automatic doors "What're you doing down here?"

Meredith glanced up at her "Just sitting here with my penis." She gestured to the cooler beside her on the table.

Lennon sighed "What about you?"

Cristina took the empty seat beside Lennon "Hiding from Alex."

Lennon smiled "What every smart girl should do."

Meredith looked down "I kissed Derek."

Cristina looked at Lennon who shrugged, letting her know that she already knew before turning Meredith "You kissed Derek."

Meredith nodded "In the elevator."

"Oh, you kissed him in the elevator." Cristina mocked.

Meredith sighed "I was having a bad day. I am having a bad day."

Cristina nodded as she stood up "Oh, so this is what you do on your bad days."

Lennon smirked, holding her hands up for Cristina to pull her up with "Make out with Dr. McDreamy."

Meredith stood up and pushed Lennon back into her chair before taking hers and Lennon's rubbish to put in the trash can "Well, that, and you know, carrying around a penis just makes everything seem so shiny and happy."

Lennon let out a huff before standing back up as Cristina looked to Meredith "Mmm. George said Alison was wearing your shoes."

Meredith nodded "Yeah. It's weird, right?"

Cristina shrugged "It's weird that you care."

Meredith sighed "I think it's weird."

Lennon opened her mouth to comment when a sudden swerve of a car invaded her hearing. Her head shot over to look through the glass, she gasped before rushing outside, Meredith and Cristina following after her. As the fresh air hit them, a man fell out of his car before staggering towards them. His pants, snort and hands were soaked in blood. Lennon noticed as the blood was concentrated mainly to his crotch and her heart skipped at beat. As the man collapsed to the ground, doctors and nurses surrounded him, taking his pulse and trying to out pressure on his wound.

Meredith went to call security as Lennon and Cristina helped situate the man onto a gurney. Meeting up with a Meredith outside the elevator the three interns ride in silence along with a few scrub nurses before the doors were opening and Bailey arrived "So, what've we got?"

Lennon gestured to the blanket "Take a look."

Bailey frowned confused "What?" Shaking her head she lifted the blanket and her eyes widened in realisation. She nodded "All right, let's get him into OR 1. Meredith, you call the chief and let him know we got the rapist." Meredith grabbed her cooler before dashing off to the nearest phone whilst the rest made their way to the operating room.

Lennon stood between Meredith and Cristina over to the side of the OR, surgical masks in place as they watched Bailey operate on the attacker. Meredith shook her head "I saw Alison, you can't believe the beating that she took. And then to see this... "

Cristina shrugged "It's like that old saying, you should see the other guy."

Bailey didn't look up as she worked "Why are we not attempting to reattach the severed penis?"

"Teeth don't slice, they tear, you can only reattach with a clean cut." Lennon answered.

Cristina nodded "If she wanted to slice him off with a knife..."

"Besides, the digestive juices didn't leave much of the flesh to work with." Meredith added.

Bailey nodded at her interns "Right, so what do we do?"

"Sew him up minus a large part of the family jewels." Cristina replied.

Bailey glanced up "And his outlook?"

Meredith smiled under her mask "He'll be urinating out of a bag for a very, very long time."

"Not to mention he'll never be able to have sex again." Lennon finished with a smirk.

Meredith shook her head in mock sympathy "Oh, too bad."

"Shame." Cristina chirped.

Bailey paused her surgery "Let's all take a moment to grieve." She held out her hand to the scrub nurse "Clamp."


After the surgery, Meredith had went to talk to the police, being the one I charge of the evidence whilst Lennon and Cristina had grabbed some coffee and made their way to the abandoned corridor to rest on the beds. Alex and George trudged in not long after them. Lennon groaned, opening one eye as Alex lifted her legs off the bed so he could sit down. He silently placed them across his lap before leaning his head on the window ledge behind him. "If I wasn't so tired, I'd move." Lennon muttered before closing her eye and relaxing once again.

Alex let out a sudden groan "My head hurts."

Cristina glanced at him "Maybe it's a tumour."

Alex scoffed "Yeah, you wish I had a tumour."

"Look, I'd rip your face off if it meant I got to scrub in." Cristina retorted.

Lennon hummed "Huh. That would be such a cool surgery."

Izzie walked in, travel mug and patient chart in hand "I have been suturing all day. My hands are numb." She complained taking a seat beside Cristina.

Noah scoffed as he came in through the door "It was nothing."

Izzie scowled at the man as he took a seat on the bed next to Alex "That because that's exactly what you did. Nothing! You flirted all day."

Noah smirked "Is someone jealous?"

Izzie shook her head as George entered "At least you're helping people." He told the blonde.

Alex glanced over at Izzie "At least you get to practice freaking medicine."

Izzie shook her head in thought "I had to send one Chinese lady away. She was like, camped out down there."

Cristina rolled her eyes as she turned to the blonde "Oh, poor Izzie, turning away patients, boo-hoo."

Meredith sauntered in, cooler in hand "So the police say that they can't send down the crack crime scene guy for hours. So I have to spend the night with a penis." She informed the group before setting the cooler on the window ledge beside Alex's head and pulling Lennon into an upright position. Alex held onto the pouting brunette's arms, a smirk on his face and obscene comment on the tip of his tongue.

Lennon narrowed her tired eyes at Alex's smirking face as Meredith slid into the space "Don't even say it."

Alex sighed as he lowered the girls top half onto her friends lap "Ah, it was too easy anyway."

George threw himself down onto the bed beside Izzie with a huff "Who here feels like they have no idea what they're doing?" Everyone but Alex and Noah raised their hands "I mean, are we supposed to be learning something, because I don't feel like I'm learning anything."

Izzie took a sip of her coffee "Except how not to sleep."

"It's like there's this wall, and the attendings and the residents are over there, being surgeons, and we're over here, being..." Cristina trailed off.

Lennon sighed "Suturing, code running, lab delivering-"

"Penis-minders." Meredith interrupted.

Noah groaned "I hate being an intern."

Lennon's eyes shot open as she felt a slap on her thigh. She looked up to see Meredith and Alex looking ahead and strained her neck to find Dr. Bailey standing before the group hands on hips "Go."

Lennon swiftly hopped off her fellow interns laps before she and the group shuffled quickly back to work.


After checking on a still unconcious Allison, Meredith and Lennon decided to go back to look at the baby with the murmur. Lennon nudged Merdith as she noticed a couple smiling in through the window before making her way to stand beside them "Hi."

The woman turned to the brunette as Meredith arrived beside her "Hi."

Meredith gestured to the baby boy "Is he yours?"

"Yeah." The mother smiled.

Lennon returned the smile "He's adorable." Sharing a look with her friend the two shared their concerns with the new parents.

"You are so out of line." The group of four turned to find the paediatric intern at the door, glaring at the two doctors

The father of the baby frowned "They say the murmur might not be benign."

Lennon nodded "I think we should do an echo, to check."

"This is your career." The intern retorted before heading to find her resident.

Meredith looked to the parents "There really is no reason to get alarmed."

The door swung open as the paeds intern returned along with her resident, Dr. Kerr "What's the problem?" He questioned.

"If our baby is sick, we want him treated. Now." The mother exclaimed.

Dr. Kerr frowned "Who said your baby was sick?"

The paeds intern gestured to Lennon and Meredith "Them, the surgical interns who have no business on our service."

The resident was quick to look at them "Who authorised you being here?"

Meredith sighed "We were just, actually-"

"I did." Dr. Burke interrupted coming up behind the pair "Could you excuse us for a second?" He asked the parents before herding Lennon and Merith to the side along with Dr. Kerr and his intern. He looked down at his colleague "Are you messing with my interns, Dr. Kerr?"

The man shook his head "No, sir."

"Give me the chart." Burke instructed the paeds intern.

She handed over the clipboard "There's nothing wrong with him, I checked."

Burke looked at her "Are you sure?"

"Yes."

Burke raised an eyebrow "You can guarantee that he is fine, you are 100% sure?"

As the intern hesitated, Dr. Kerr let out a sigh "How sure are you?"

"I don't know, 75%." She bit her lip.

Burke shook his head "Not good enough. He's my patient now. That okay with you, Dr. K?"

Kerr nodded "Absolutely."

The paeds intern was indignant as she leaned closer to her resident "He can take our patient?"

"He's an attending." Dr. Kerr simply responded.

A smirk crossed Burke's face "Which means I can do whatever I want." He taunted before heading back the parents with Lennon and Meredith close behind "Mr and Mrs Johnson, I'm Dr. Burke, head of cardio, we're going to run some tests and give you an answer within the hour. Grey, Wood " he put a hand on each of their shoulders before looking back to the parents "excuse me," the three walked down the corridor, away from the nursery "I want an EKG, a chest x-ray, and an ECHO. I don't have all day."

Lennon shared a smile with Meredith "You're a busy man."

"I'm a busy man."


After ordering the tests, the friends walked down the corridor waiting for Burke to check the results. Lennon slapped Meredith's arm "Look, there's Burke." She pointed ahead and the two girls made their way towards the man.

"Well?" Meredith asked with a raised eyedbrow.

Burke nodded "It's a birth defect. Tetrology affirmed lower pulmonary artresia. You guys were right. I'm booking the OR for tomorrow."

Lennon sighed in relief "Thank you for backing us up on this."

"Yes, thank you." Meredith nodded in agreement.

Burke held up his hands "Whoa, whoa, wait, whoa. You were right. But if you ever pull a stunt like that again...going to the parents behind a doctor's back? Trying to steal a patient from another service? I will make your residency year hell on earth." He warned before walking down the hall.

Lennon whistled "Damn, I thought Bailey was scary."


Lennon smiled as she looked down at the Johnson baby "His heart surgery is scheduled for the morning." The brunette looked up to see the paeds intern looking between her and Meredith "I really did think I was right, you know."

Meredith nodded "I know. We almost never are. We're interns."

"We're not supposed to be right. And when we are, it's completely shocking." Lennon shrugged.

The paeds intern looked embarrassed "Are you - I mean, being an intern, do you guys feel..."

"Terrified?" Lennon questioned knowingly.

Meredith nodded "100% of the time."

The intern sighed in relief "Good, it's not just me. "

Lennon and Meredith smiled "No."


As Meredith went off to check on Allison again, Lennon made her way to the closest on call room to take a power nap. Yawning, the brunette swung the door open. Her tired eyes widened as she took in Noah's naked back, a head of red hair peeking out from below "Oh crap."

Noah smirked as he glanced over at her "There's room for one more."

Lennon covered her eyes as she backed up towards the door "Eww no, gross! Nu uh, never." Grunting as she bumped into the doorframe "Seriously these beds are for sleeping!" She scolded, swiftly spinning on her heels, hearing Noahs chuckle muffle as she swung the door shut with a bang behind her. Huffing, she threw her hands up in frustration "Can't a girl get a nap around here."


Meredith arrived at Allison's room only to find Derek sitting by her bedside "How is she?"

Derek looked up as she entered "No change."

Meredith raised an eyebrow at the man "Have you been here all night?"

"Mm-hmm." Derek nodded "Yup. You know I have four sisters? Very girly, tons of kids. If I was in a coma, they'd all be here. I'd want them here. Having no one? Can't imagine that."

Meredith hummed quietly "I can."

Derek frowned "What're you talking about, what about your mother? She'd be in here ordering all the surgeons around. She'd fly these cowboys in from Prague to do these amazing medical procedures."

Meredith sighed "That's true. I do have my mother."

Derek chuckled "Also I'm sure Lennon would probably be in the bed with you, telling you everything you were missing until you woke up."

Meredith smiled genuinely at the thought of her best friend "You're right."

"I'm always right." Derek smirked "So we're kissing but we're not dating?"

Meredith sighed but couldn't help but smile "I knew that was going to come up."

Derek shook his head with a grin "Don't get me wrong, I like the kissing. I'm all for the kissing. More kissing, I say."

"I have no idea what that was about." Meredith retorted.

Derek raised an eyebrow "Is it going to happen again? Because if it is, I need to bring breath mints. Put a condom in my wallet."

Meredith sent him a look "Shut up now." Derek laughed as Meredith looked back to Allison "There was this baby up in the nursery. He's brand new. No one's neglected him or damaged him yet. How do we get from there to here? She's wearing my shoes and someone's beat the crap out of her, and she's got nobody."

Derek's head shot away from Meredith as the machine beeped rapidly above Allison. He rushed over to the latent as Meredith hit the code button on the wall "Her ICP's double, get OR! Put her in for a craniotomy." He yelled as the crash time poured in.


Lennon leant silently against the wall outside the OR with Meredith after getting a page about Allison's surgery. The two up looked up as Derek approached thepair, taking his scrub cal off "Hey. I, uh, I had to leave her skull flap off, till the pressure in her brain goes down."

Meredith sighed "She's not going to make it, is she?"

"She's going to be fine." Derek denied.

Lennon frowned "If she ever wakes up."

Derek nodded sadly as he looked between the two girls "If she ever wakes up."


After Meredith signed over the penis to the police she and Lennon made their way to stand at the side of the OR to watch the heart surgery for baby Johnson "We'll be using a medium approach for a trans-ventricular repair with a right ventriculostomy. Let's open him up." Burke told the surgical staff around the room "Fifteen blade." He requested before glancing at the two interns "Wood! Grey!"

Lennon and Meredith shared a look "Yes, sir?"

"Go scrub in. When we've finished cracking the baby's chest, Wood you can hold Sternun retractor and Grey, I'll let you hold the clamp."

Meredith was wide eyed "Seriously?"

Burke looked over his shoulder at the pair with a raised eyebrow "Don't make me change my mind."

Lennon grinned behind her mask as she tugged Meredith out if the room "We're going."


Derek stormed in the room belonging to the rapist. He whacked the end of the bed, jolting the patient awake "I have good news and bad news. The good news is, Dr. Bailey stopped your bleeding. The bad news is, we're giving your penis to the cops. Have a nice life." and with that, he was gone.


On a high from taking part in an actual surgery, Lennon and Meredith dragged their friends to see the babies in the nursery. George was only too happy to go, needing cheering up after working with the code team all day and losing all of his patients.

Lennon smiled as she nudged Meredith, raising raising an eyebrow until she sighed in defeat "Okay, fine, George and Izzie, you can move into the house."

George grinned, raising his arms in the air in triumph "YES! Yes!"

Izzie grinned, breathing out a laugh "I can't believe you caved!" She squeaked before hugging George on celebration.

George pulled back before clapping Meredith on the shoulders "Thank you." He turned back to the blonde "Yes!" He cheered before he and Izzie danced their way down the corridor.

Meredith pouted "I can't believe I caved."

"You always cave." Lennon snickered.

Cristina rolled her eyes "I blame the babies. Toxic."

Derek sighed as he stood outside Allison's room, the phone at the nurses station resting between his ear and shoulder. He went to speak when moment caught his eye. His mouth dropped as he set the phone down and made his way into Allison's room. He watched intently as the girls eyes lids flustered before her green orbs were revealed and she looked up at the doctor who smiled softly "Welcome back."


Lennon let out a sigh as she walked out of the locker room with Meredith "I am so tried."

Meredith chuckled before smirking "Huh, I would've thought your little run in with Noah and nurse red would've woke you up a little."

Lennon groaned, throwing her head back "Don't even start Mer." As she brought her head back down she spotted Derek standing at the elevator alone. Sighing she looked at Meredith who had noticed the man aswell "McDreamy will be the death of me," she grumbled before turning to head to the stairs "Always making me walk, so they make out in the freakin' elevators." She muttered to herself.

Meredith shook her head amused at her friend before heading over to the elevators to stand in front of Derek, who once again was on his phone. Derek grinned as he glanced up "So. It's intense...this thing I have for, ah, ferry boats I mean."

Meredith smiled as she turned to face him "I'm so taking the stairs this time."

The elevator dinged as she walked off grinning. Derek smiled after her "No self-control. It's sad. Really."


"Wait up!" Lennon looked up just as she reached the last step.

Lennon's brown eyes widened in disbelief as Meredith scurried down the steps towards her "Are you kidding me?! I took the stairs for nothing!"

Meredith laughed as she slung her arm around her frowning friend "Let's go home Len."
