[voice over] I had this bad ass professor in med school. She seemed invincible. Then, one day, she needed her gallbladder out and the surgery killed her. Her platelets stopped clotting, she bled out on the table. Everything that could have gone wrong, did go wrong. Surgeons have a name for it. We call it a perfect storm. Funny, never thought it would happen to me.
“Perfect Storm” · Season 9, Episode 24

[briefing the interns assigned to the NICU] This is important. The makers of tiny humans get easily spooked. It is our job tonight to keep the tiny human makers happy or they will mutiny and we are outnumbered. We remain calm. We remain confident. Because everything is just fine. Understood?
I felt such joy today in that dark OR. I could hear the blood moving. I knew exactly what the heart muscle was thinking. And I realized after I feel that way all the time. I'm made for the OR. Even the boring procedures, I can feel pure joy, content. You feel that with just me?
What kind of a question is that?
Derek watches Zola put applesauce in her ear and he's enchanted. You felt that way with Ethan.
Ahh, you weren't on the plane Callie! You weren't in the woods, and you did not hear Meredith crying for Lexie, or Mark moaning in pain, or hearing me scream in pain, you weren't there, and you keep acting like you were, but you weren't, and it wasn't your experience.
[crying] I lost Mark; you almost died.
"I lost Mark; you almost died." You weren't on the fricking plane! You wanted the street cred, the badge of honor, the warrior wounds, Great! Stick out your leg and I'll grab a bone saw and let's even the score! [crying] Ohh...
[crying] It always comes back to the leg..
[crying] I trusted you more than anything... more than anyone in my life. And you decided to cut off..
To save your life!
You didn't lose anything! I did, I did!
Apparently I lost you...
[voice over] There's an end to every storm. Once all the trees have been uprooted. Once all the houses have been ripped apart. The wind will hush, the clouds will part, the rain will stop, the sky will clear in an instant. But only then, in those quiet moments after the storm, do we learn who was strong enough to survive it.
