Dr. Alex Karev : Why are you helping me after what I did?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Because it's what JESUS would FREAKIN' Do!

[Bailey who is pregnant, is rubbing her stomach and has labored breaths as she walks through the halls of the hospital. The interns are talking as they follow her]
Dr. George O'Malley : Look at her belly. She's almost as wide as she is tall.
Dr. Meredith Grey : Are her ankles swollen? Is that why she's waddling?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : What's gonna happen to us when she goes on leave?
Dr. Cristina Yang : She's going on leave?
Dr. Meredith Grey : What do you think happens when people push babies out of their vagina?
[George laughs]
Dr. George O'Malley : Do you think we're going to get a new resident?
Dr. Alex Karev : Nah. They'll probably just let us wander around unattended. See how much damage we can do.
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Yeah, well, you would know.
[Enthusiastic]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Hey, guys, we should all get together and get Bailey a Christmas gift for the baby, or we could, um, organize some sort of Secret Santa thing.
Dr. Cristina Yang : Okay, listen Tiny Tim, you can take your...
[George and Meredith move in next to each other to block Cristina from Izzie]
Dr. George O'Malley : Sounds great.
Dr. Meredith Grey : Secret Santa sounds great, Izzie.
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Okay.
[turns around and leaves]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : [Cristina has an appalled look on her face]
Dr. Meredith Grey : We're being supportive.

[Alex is mock-examining Cristina, and is basically fondling her chest]
Dr. Cristina Yang : Okay, the way you're grabbing me now, that's assault.
[Straightens out his fingers]
Dr. Cristina Yang : This... is an exam. Pads.
[Moves his hand on her chest properly]
Dr. George O'Malley : [George walks in] What... What the hell? Does Izzie know... Does Burke know about this?
Dr. Cristina Yang : Unbunch your panties, George. We're helping Alex study.
[to Alex]
Dr. Cristina Yang : Do it.
[Alex continues examining her chest]
Dr. George O'Malley : I can't hear you when his hand is on your boob.
Dr. Cristina Yang : Take your hand off my boob, Alex.
[Alex moves his hand off her chest]
Dr. George O'Malley : Thank you. Study for what?
Dr. Alex Karev : Shut it, Yang.
Dr. Cristina Yang : Alex failed his boards.
Dr. George O'Malley : Seriously?
Dr. Alex Karev : I failed one part of one board. That's it.
Dr. George O'Malley : Still, that's pretty embarrassing.
[Stifles a laugh]
Dr. Cristina Yang : [Cristina's pager beeps] Hey, he's all yours, Georgie. Do your worst.
[Cristina leaves]
Dr. George O'Malley : You're not giving me a rectal. Do not ask me to cough.

[Izzie walks up to Alex, who is sleeping, and slaps him]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Wake up.
[Alex lifts his head up]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : God. No wonder you failed your boards. What, do you expect to learn this stuff by osmosis?
Dr. Alex Karev : What are you doing here?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : [sighs] I'm a farmer, okay? I've been drooling, puking, and crapping in my pants.
Dr. Alex Karev : You came here to help me study?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Well, I'm not actually crapping my pants now, am I?
Dr. Alex Karev : Why would you want to help me after what I did?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Because, it's what JESUS, would freaking do!
Jimmy Shelton : How is she?
Nadia's Mother : Is she gonna be alright?
Dr. Miranda Bailey : She lost a lot of blood, but we were able to replace it and repair the tear. She's going to require several days' observation, but she should make a full recovery.
Jimmy Shelton : Thank God.
Nadia's Mother : Thank God is right, because we're certainly not gonna thank you. We should sue you for all you're worth. We sat here, and sat here, and sat here, and sat here...
Dr. Miranda Bailey : [Quietly to George] You wanna help me out?
Dr. George O'Malley : [Quietly to Bailey] Really?
Nadia's Mother : And sat here, and watched you take patient after patient...
Dr. Miranda Bailey : [Quietly to George] You got your second chance, just don't screw it up.
Nadia's Mother : ...And made my daughter wait for three whole days for her operation. I should sue you and this whole damned hospital!
Dr. George O'Malley : Okay, yeah. You could sue us, or you could consider the possibility of just shutting the hell up.
Nadia's Mother : What did you just say to me? Did you hear what he just...
Ernie : I heard him!
Josh Shelton : You can't talk to an old lady like that.
Nadia's Mother : Where is my daughter? I'd like to see her.
Dr. George O'Malley : Well you can't. I'm her doctor, she is my patient, and this is a hospital, which is the kind of place where people could generally use a little peace and quiet. So, no. Right now, you can't see her. And I am not saying this because you threatened to sue Dr. Bailey, who spent the last several hours saving your daughter's life, saving your wife's life. I am saying this because she is my patient and she is the recovery wing of this hospital trying to recover, and visiting hours are over. So, good night. And, Merry Christmas.
[Walks away]
Dr. George O'Malley : [Bailey, with her arms folded, stares down the family]
Dr. Miranda Bailey : Interns. Too emotional. Apologies.

Dr. Alex Karev : Uh... Is the nausea constant or intermittent?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Constant.
Dr. Alex Karev : When... When did it first start?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : [sighs] After I worked in the fields all day.
Dr. Alex Karev : Do you have any allergies you're aware of?
[Izzie has started to cry, shakes her head]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : No.
[Sobs]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : [Alex sits down next to Izzie]
Dr. Alex Karev : Izzie... I never wanted to hurt you.
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : [Through tears] You didn't hurt me. I don't even know you, I'm a farmer.
Dr. Alex Karev : You're still the patient?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : What does it look like?
[Continues crying, sobbing]
Dr. Alex Karev : It's organophosphates. Pesticide poisoning.
[Izzie nods]
Dr. Alex Karev : Crying's a symptom. That's it, right?
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : Right.
[Still crying]

[George is helping Alex study]
Dr. George O'Malley : [In a bizzare accent] My throat, it's like, wicked sore, yo. Plus, I got all these sick break outs, right?
Dr. Alex Karev : Dude, seriously.
[George gets up to leave]
Dr. Alex Karev : Alright, alright! Sit down, sit down.
[George comes back]
Dr. Alex Karev : Open up your mouth, I'd like to inspect your tonsils.
[Alex shines a pen light into George's mouth as he sticks his tongue out]
Dr. George O'Malley : [Sticking his tongue out] Aaaa!
[Izzie walks in]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : What's wrong with you? Are you sick?
Dr. George O'Malley : Fake sick.
[Izzie just looks confused]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : I failed my practical board exam. O'Malley's helping me study.
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : You failed your...
[Angrily]
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : You're helping him?
Dr. George O'Malley : Just to study. Nothing else.
Dr. Alex Karev : Izzie...
Dr. Isobel 'Izzie' Stevens : No, you don't get to say my name! And you are unbelievable!
[Walks out]
Dr. George O'Malley : [as he runs after Izzie] I was doing mono, the whole fever and the glands thing. The acne, was just part of the teenager thing.
