“Slow Night, So Long” · Season 7, Episode 9

In this episode: Meredith Grey (3), Alex Karev (2), Derek Shepherd (1), Mark Sloan (1), Jackson Avery (1), Teddy Altman (1)

[voiceover] We doctors, take pride in the fact that we can basically sleep standing up. Anytime, anywhere. But it's a false pride because the truth is, after about 20 hours without sleep, you might as well just come to work drunk, doctor, or not. So, it's no wonder that fatal medical errors increase at night. When we doctors are, proudly, sleeping on our feet. Recently, our communal pride has been shattered, and our egos have been wounded by new laws that require that we sleep all day before we work all night. We're not happy about it. But as someone who may one day need medical care, you really should be.

Nice face.

At least I can do surgery. How's that hand?

It'd be better if you hadn't run your face into it.

This is why you don't meet people on the internet.

You're married! You don't get to have an opinion about my pathetic forays into internet dating.

Remember the first day the chief said only two of us would make it?

AMAlex and Meredith

I thought it would be me and Cristina.

[voiceover] Under the cover of darkness, people do things they'd never do under the harsh glare of day. Decisions feel wiser, people feel bolder. But when the sun rises, you have to take responsibility for what you did in the dark and face yourself under the cold, harsh light of day.
