Dr. Addison Shepherd:So I'm leaving in the morning.
Dr. Richard Webber:No.
Dr. Addison Shepherd:Excuse me?
Dr. Richard Webber:No, I'm not accepting your resignation.
Dr. Addison Shepherd:It's not resignation, Richard, it's notification. I don't officially work for you. I came for one case, I can track the twins progress from New York.
Dr. Richard Webber:What about the preemie?
Dr. Addison Shepherd:I'm letting go of the preemie, you know that. He calls me Satan, Richard.
Dr. Richard Webber:You don't like to hide from a fight.
