Mark

Derek! You're trying to steal my guy. He's my guy. Avery go get in the car.

What? No.

Mark.

Mark

You've been moving in on him all week. You weren't even interested in him until you saw how much he meant to me. I don't take the time to teach anyone if I can help it.

Mark.

Mark

But I'm takin' the time with Avery because he's a quick learner and he can do a c-plasty better than I could at his level.

I can? [Mark turns to walk away]

Hey, hey. Don't do that. Don't just yell at me then walk away.

Mark

I'm not. It's just that Sofia likes it if I'm moving.

You guys talk. I'll take the baby.

Mark

Okay, careful. We had a scare this week. [hands Sofia to Owen] Thank you. Now, Avery go get in the car. Friends don't steal from each other.

It's not stealing if he asks to scrub in on my surgeries.

Mark

Oh, don't be a jackass.

Okay, look. I appreciate this, I do. But if I have to choose, I choose plastics. I mean, I really appreciate being able to take the lead on your neuro surgeries but I feel like--

Mark

[to Jackson] You usin' my boy here? To get more surgery? Nobody uses my boy. [Derek smiles, Jackson looks confused]

Mark

It's three days. We're gonna be fine. Bye mommies. Have fun at the conference mommies.

Bye-bye, baby boo...

Mark

Go.

Just one more kiss.

Mark

Go. Come on.

I'm gonna miss you so much.

Mark

Bye. See ya.

Bye.

Mark

It's just you and me kid. High five. High five. Dap. Blow it up.

[voiceover] People say 'be a man.' People say it all the time.

[voiceover] But what does that even mean?

[voiceover] Is it about strength?

[voiceover] Is it about sacrifice?

[voiceover] Is it about winning?

Mark

[voiceover] Maybe it's simpler than that.

[voiceover] You have to know when not to man up. Sometimes it takes a real man to set his ego aside, admit defeat, and simply start all over again.

Mark

Homemade maple-ginger scones. Try.

Oh, no, no, no, really.

I just had a big lunch.

Mark

The scone's a very tough pastry to make. You have to be exact with the ingredients, the baking temperature––

[glances at Derek] Hey, how is the house coming?

Oh, we're working on the drywall now.

Really? All right.

Mark

I get it. I'm a bore. But Avery's doing all my surgeries, and I'm taking up cooking to keep my mind sharp for when the next big case rolls in.

[smirks] Yeah, you keep telling yourself that.

Hey! You bought pizza?

Mark

No! Pizza? I made a coq au vin!

[dumps pan into the trash; Arizona and Mark protest] Mark, I love you. I love how great you are with our daughter. I love that you and Arizona are friends, but you, you need to leave 'cause tonight I'm gonna eat pizza and drink beer in bed with my wife and tell her all about the neck I just built and then we're gonna have lots and lots of sex. Okay? We're great parents, but, we're more than just mommies and daddies. We are hot and we are sexy, and your new hobby? The hollandaise and the short ribs and the [mockingly] coq au vin? It's getting in the way of our sex lives. So, please. Start having sex again. Okay? But, not tonight. Cause tonight? You're babysitting.

I just want to say how proud I am of all of you. You are an incredible team.

[to Bailey] Now who's drunk?

I've watched you work together, solve problems together, I've watched you teach each other and learn from each other. You step up when you need to and you... you do more than anyone asks you to. You're the finest team I've ever been a part of.

Mark

Oh, my God.

Sad.

Beautiful.

You don't think we have a shot at winning this.

What this? This. No, no, we're screwed. You are all horrible at softball but... [they all laugh] As doctors, you're pretty great and I'm proud to just to get to lead you. And you're all here so I just... I just wanted to tell you. But, now, we're going down. But what do you say we go down fighting? [they all cheer]

[Mark interrupts Derek, who is analyzing a patient's scans]

Mark

Hey, you got a second?

Wait just one second.

Mark

I'm a little worried about Avery.

[tries to ignore him] I'm--I'm this close to getting this.

Mark

We had a real connection, you know?

[puts away his notes and looks at Mark] Okay.

Mark

Well, we were having such a good time together, and suddenly he's avoiding me. He's cold and distant.

Well, you're afraid You're about to have your heart broken by him.

Mark

Kind of. Derek, you know me. I never gave a crap about teaching in my life. But lately, I like the idea of passing it on. And I, you know, I just-- I want to see him do well. Maybe I just need to back off.

[Owen enters the room]

Ah, Hunt. Just in time. Mark is afraid that Avery is gonna break up with him.

Mark

Can this just stay between you and me?

[awkwardly] I'd prefer that. Uh, Shepherd, about these cases--

I know what you're gonna say. You're worried about the hospital's mortality rate going up. See, that's the worst part about being chief. You have to say no to everybody, and they hate you for it. And you say no enough, you're gonna hate yourself, which is why I'm not gonna watch you go through this. I have a consult. [looks at Mark] If you love someone, set them free. If they come back.. [facetiously blows a kiss to him]

[Derek quickly leaves the room]

Mark

I'm gonna punch you. [to Owen] Hey, let me ask you something––

No.

S8 E8 Heart-Shaped Box

Mark

I offered to time share Sofia with Derek and Meredith if they don't end up with kids of their own. He said no.

Why?

Because your child is not a rental car. We're not gonna take her out one week a month.

Have you seen her? Because she's heart-stoppingly adorable.

You're missing the point.

Mark

He's missing the point.

No, she's delicious. She's addictive. Why wouldn't you want to parent her?

How much trauma has your girlfriend done?

Mark

A lot. She's told me about a bunch of her cases.

Oh, so we're just going off your pillow talk? If I get a hint that your girlfriend is in over her head, I'm gonna boot her out of my O.R.

Mark

You know what your problem is? You don't think anyone who sleeps with me can be talented or have half a brain.

That is not true.

Mark

It's mostly true.

Yeah. Yeah, it's mostly true.

Mark

Your ex-wife is brilliant, and she slept with me. I'm not trying to start a fight. I'm just sayin'.

[Mark answers the door and is surprised to see Jackson.]

I got steak and I bought a really good red, and a salad, and I'm gonna cook for you.

Mark

Avery, I have a girlfriend.

And she's operating tonight, so as soon as you put Sofia down, you can help me study for my boards, 'cause I am behind. Way behind.

Mark

What'd you pay for that bottle of wine?

50 bucks.

[Mark lets him in]

How's it going with your better half?

Mark

(referring to Avery) He's uptight, worried about the boards, snapping at patients. I tried to get him laid, but…

I'm talking about Julia.

Mark

Oh. Of course.

[about a patient] Well, frankly, I don't know what you think I can do for him by 3:00 this afternoon.

Mark

Rise.

Excuse me?

Mark

You have it in you. Lost causes, right? Making the impossible possible? Rise to the challenge, Shepherd. I believe in you. Rise. [Derek stares at him]

Oh, hey.

Mark

Hey.

Thanks, uh, for today. For-- For letting me, uh...

Mark

You did a good job in there.

Thanks.

Mark

You okay?

I love you. Oh, G-- Oh, my God. That just came... fly-flying out of my face, like it was s-s-some kind of-- I-I l... I love you. I just-- God! Did it again! [laughs] I... I-I-I-I love you. I-I do. I just-- I-I love you. And I have been trying not to say it. I have been trying so hard to just mash it down and ignore it and not say it. And Jackson is a great guy. He-he is, and he... he's gorgeous, and-and he's younger than you, and he doesn't have any grandkids or-or babies with his lesbian BFFs and he's an Avery, and-and he liked me, you know? He... he really liked me. But it was never gonna work out because I-I love you. I am so in love with you. And you're-you're... you're in me. It's-- You're like... it's-- It's like you're a disease. It's like I am infected by Mark Sloan. [laughs] And I just can't... [voice breaking] I can't think about anything or anybody, and I can't sleep. [crying] I can't breathe. I can't eat. And I love you. I just... I love you all the time, just every minute of every day. And I-I-I... I-I... love you. God, that feels good, just to-to say that... to... I am... I feel so much better. Just... I love you.

How's Julia? You impregnate her yet?

Mark

I was all ready to, but then Lexie... she told me she was in love with me.

Oh... What did you say?

Mark

I said "Thank you for your candor."

"Thank you for your candor"?

Mark

What was I supposed to do?

Well, I don't know, kiss her?

Mark

Julia's away on a conference, I'm not a cheater. [Derek gives him a look] Usually.

Mark

You're doing good.

Mark...

Mark

Cristina's... Cristina's gonna be back any minute.

Mark...

Mark

No, Mark...

Mark

Just a few minutes, okay? She'll be back any minute.

Mark, I'm... I'm dying.

Mark

What? No, you're not.

[gasps] Mm-hmm. I am. Please... Tell... [crying] Tell Meredith that I love her. And that she's a good sister. Please. T-Tell my dad...

Mark

You're not dying. You're gonna be fine.

[crying] Hold my hand.

Mark

I'm not holding your hand because you're not dying.

Hold my hand.

Mark

No, you're not dying. Do you hear me? You don't die today. [tries to lift the plane off her again, and realizes, and lays back down and holds her hand] I love you.

You don't have to say it just because I said it.

Mark

I do. I love you. [teary eyed] I love you. I've always been in love with you. I will always be in love with you.

Yeah?

Mark

Yeah. Which is why you have to stay alive. We-- We-- We're gonna get married. And you're gonna make an amazing surgeon. And we're gonna have two or three kids.

So Sofia can have siblings.

Mark

Yeah. A sister and two brothers.

That's nice.

Mark

And... We're gonna be happy, Lex... You and me. We're gonna have the best life, Lexie. You and me. We're gonna be so happy. So you can't die, okay? You can't die, because we're supposed to end up together. We're meant to be. [starts crying]

Meant to be. [she dies]
