[voiceover] It's a look patients get in their eyes. There is a scent, the smell of death. Some kind of sixth sense. When the great beyond is headed for you, you feel it coming. What's the one thing you've always dreamed of doing before you die?

You have a feeling?
Yes.
Okay, what kind of feeling?
Like I might die.
Today? Tomorrow? In 50 years? We're all going to die eventually. Now we're late! Let's go!
Cristina. C'mon!
This is me being supportive.
Really?
Yeah, fine, I'm totally supportive. Go.
OK. The man I love has a wife and then he chooses her over me. And that wife takes my dog — OK, she didn't take the dog, I gave it to her, but I didn't mean to give it to her, I meant to give it to him — but that does not change the fact that she's got my McDreamy. And my McDog. She's got my McLife! And what have I got? [sits up] You know, I can't remember the last time we kissed. 'Cause you never think the last time is the last time, you think there'll be more. You think you have forever, but you don't. Plus my conditioner decided to stop working and I think I have brittle bones. I just - I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are gonna change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed and feel like I might die today.
[throws back blanket] Whatever - everybody has problems. Now get your ass out of bed and get to work. NOW! Move! Move! Move! [Opens the door to find Izzie and George] We're good to go.
Bailey's back? That's excellent. [Hurries to the door but stops when he looks in the window] And her cervix is being examined by my wife, which is a, which is a visual I will never get out of my head. Thanks for the warning.
What are you people doing out here?
Are you alright? Can I get you anything?
A boy the size of a 10 lb. bowling ball is working its way out of my body. Can you get me something for that? Can you get me a new vagina?
Uh, well.
I didn't think so.
Alex.
How crazy is this? Dude, it's like the Apocalypse.
Alex.
It's true. Look around you. Half the people who're supposed to be saving lives have fled the building to save themselves. Bailey's husband almost died coming to see his kid getting born. The annoying twins are down on the OR floor with the guy who literally explode in their faces. It's a morgue. Just saying, people should get while the getting's good because there might not be a tomorrow.
Alex!
What?
[Cut to the supply closet]
Take off your pants.
Izzie, what are you doing?
I'm being a doer. Getting while the getting's good. Now take off your pants.
You realize when I said the apocalypse, I meant it metaphorically, not literally.
Alex, I haven't had sex in eight months and twelve days. I'm horny, I'm half-naked, and I'm saying yes. Do you want to stand there and talk metaphors, or do you want to literally take off your pants?
