[voiceover] There are distinct differences, between male and female brains.
[voiceover] Female brains have a larger hippocampus...which usually makes them better at retention and memory.
[voiceover] Male brains have a bigger parietal cortex, which helps when fending off an attack.
[voiceover] Male brains confront challenges differently than female brains.
[voiceover] Women are hardwired to communicate with language. Detail. Empathy. Men, not so much.
[voiceover] It doesn't mean we're any less capable of emotion.
[voiceover] We can talk about our feelings. It's just that, most of the time, we'd really rather not.
Derek! You're trying to steal my guy. He's my guy. Avery go get in the car.
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.
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.
I'm not. It's just that Sofia likes it if I'm moving.
You guys talk. I'll take the baby.
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.
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--
[to Jackson] You usin' my boy here? To get more surgery? Nobody uses my boy. [Derek smiles, Jackson looks confused]
Okay, I get that you like to put your dirty clothes in my laundry because, frankly, if you didn't you'd never have any clean clothes. Fine. I will wash your dirty underpants. But you know what? I am not okay with washing your "skank of the week's" dirty underpants.
Actually those are Lexie's, thank you.
Okay, never mind. [Leaves]
Nope. Lauren, third floor, radiology.
It's three days. We're gonna be fine. Bye mommies. Have fun at the conference mommies.
I'm gonna miss you so much.
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?
[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.
