[voiceover] Everyone figures doctors are the most responsible people they know. They hold lives in their hands. They're not flakes. They don't lose track of important details or make stunningly bad judgment calls. 'Cause that would be bad, right?
“Not Responsible” · Season 7, Episode 16
In this episode: Lexie Grey (3), Meredith Grey (2), April Kepner (1), Jackson Avery (1)
It always feels like there is just one person in this world to love. And then you find somebody else, and it just seems crazy that you were ever worried in the first place.
Just wanted to make sure you were alright.
Ricky's not, that's for sure. I told Julia that she'd find somebody else, but I'm not sure I believed it.
Ah, she will.
But what if he's...
...her soulmate? You've gotta be kidding me with this crap, Lexie. Nobody has just one soulmate. That'd be such a dumb system. Look, Ricky and Julia deserve better than someone who makes them sick. You deserve better, too. And there is more than one soulmate for everyone. I mean, someone like you, there'd be a line out the door as soon as word got out.
[smiles] Oh, would you be in the line?
Yeah, I'm in the line.
[Lexie is in the shower with Jackson, April comes in, not knowing Jackson's in there]
Okay, um... Stark... Stark just asked me out. Isn't that the weirdest thing you've ever heard?
It's pretty weird, I'll give you that, yeah.
(hysterically) It's weird, it's weird. I mean, he's old and mean, he's like the Grinch. The Grinch asked me for dinner and I said yes. [giggles]
You said yes?!
I mean, there is a nice man under there.
Ap-April...
You think it's weird.
I- I do, but I'm starting to come around to it. You know, can we talk about it later?
Y-Yeah, okay. Can I pee before I go?
April, go downstairs.
This is shared space.
Go downstairs! [April leaves, screen shows Lexie covering Jackson's mouth, who is obviously trying not to laugh]
[voiceover] We are responsible with our patients. The problem is we blow it all out at work. In our own lives, we can't think things through. We don't make the sound choice. We did that all day at the hospital. When it comes to ourselves, we've got nothing left. And is it worth it—being responsible? Because if you take your vitamins and pay your taxes and never cut the line, the universe still gives you people to love and then lets them slip through your fingers like water, and then what have you got? Vitamins and nothing.
