[voiceover] "I had a terrible day." We say it all the time. A fight with the boss, the stomach flu, traffic... That's what we describe as terrible when nothing terrible is happening...
“Dark Was The Night” · Season 8, Episode 9
In this episode: Meredith Grey (2), Derek Shepherd (2), Cristina Yang (1), Arizona Robbins (1), Mark Sloan (1)
Meredith didn't want kids. I pushed her... She opened herself up. Now I feel like I... I did this to her.
She wanted it, too. Or it wouldn't have happened.
She'll blame me... like I've been blaming her. We lost Zola and now if I lose Meredith...
She always comes back. She might need a minute to back away, but... she comes back.
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.
He's missing the point.
No, she's delicious. She's addictive. Why wouldn't you want to parent her?
[voiceover] These are the things we beg for: a root canal, an IRS audit, coffee spilled on our clothes... When the really terrible things happen, we start begging a God we don't believe in to bring back the little horrors and take away this. It seems quaint now, doesn't it? The flood in the kitchen, the poison oak, the fight that leaves you shaking with rage... Would it have helped if we could see what else was coming? Would we have known that those were the best moments of our lives?
