[narrator] Previously on Grey's Anatomy:
Her or me?
I need him to stop taIking to Meredith.
- You're staying with her? - She's my wife.
I broke up with Derek.
- So where are we? - We are a coupIe.
I know the ruIes, but I don't want to have a reIationship in secret.
Boys are stupid.
- What, you got a date? - Yes, yes I do.
- You're married? - Ten years today.
- How come I didn't know? - You never asked.
[Meredith] In the eighth grade,
my English class had to read Romeo and JuIiet.
Then, for extra credit, Mrs. Snyder made us act out all the parts.
Sal Scafarillo was Romeo.
As fate would have it, I was Juliet.
All the other girls were jealous. But I had a slightly different take.
I told Mrs. Snyder that Juliet was an idiot.
For starters, she falls for the one guy she knows she can't have.
Then she blames fate for her own bad decision.
- [Izzie] You kissed me. - I did.
ShouId we... There's a discussion we couId have if you wanted to have one.
Izzie. I kissed you. With tongue. And I pIan to do it again and again.
Get used to it. End of discussion.
OK.
Mrs. Snyder explained to me that when fate comes into play,
choice sometimes goes out the window.
God.
CongratuIations.
- What? - FeIIowships.
Five appIications, five offers.
Do you know how rare that is? This is your year.
Everybody wants to dance with you.
Of course, SeattIe Grace's feIIowship program is the best.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. [coughs]
You are taking my feIIowship, aren't you?
I don't know. I haven't made a decision yet.
At the ripe old age of 1 3, I was very clear
that love, like life, is about making choices.
I wouId not wish this on anyone. It's Iike someone ripped my guts out.
- Baby, you had food poisoning. - I had one, Iousy restaurant cIam.
- Wait a minute. Where's BiIIing again? - [Meredith and Derek] The basement.
And fate has nothing to do with it.
We're going the wrong way.
- [Cristina] Coffee? - Oh, thank you. It's date night.
Yeah, it's a night, with a date.
- You forgot. - No.
Yes.
You want to canceI?
No.
Everyone thinks it's so romantic.
Romeo and Juliet. True love. How sad.
Oh, crap!
If Juliet was stupid enough to fall for the enemy, drink a bottle of poison,
and go to sleep in a mausoleum...
What the...
...she deserved whatever she got.
[# Psapp: Cosy in the Rocket]
Window washer, feII from fifth-fIoor scaffoIding.
Obvious open tiblfib fracture, but otherwise OK.
After a five-story faII he's got equaI breath sounds.
This is unbeIievabIe! Do you want to hear?
Somehow I beIieve you. Yang, get in there and paIpate his abdomen.
- Does this hurt anywhere? - No.
You feII from the sky. Five stories. You onIy injured your Ieg.
- George. - No. Don't ''George'' me.
A few seconds earIier, he'd have Ianded on me.
OK, roIIing on three, pIease. One, two, three.
[groans]
- Are these feathers? - My Iife was saved by that pigeon.
Let's get some X-rays.
And after that you might want to get in there and Iook for the rest of Tweety.
Thank you.
[man] Esme wanted to wait untiI tomorrow to see her doctor.
But she hasn't been abIe to keep anything down since yesterday.
So I brought her in.
Mrs. Sorrento, you have acute choIecystitis.
Which means that your gaIIbIadder may have to come out.
She has gaIIstones?
He watches cabIe. He thinks he's a doctor.
I'm giving you antibiotics and IV fIuids to cooI the gaIIbIadder down.
Then I'm going to caII Dr. BaiIey
and I'm going to see if surgery is the best way for us to go.
- Do you have any questions? - What happened to your forehead?
Nothing.
I've toId you. I don't need an appointment.
I am not a patient. I am a friend from New York.
Weiss?
Derek! I've been Iooking for you!
Sav, why didn't you teII me you were coming?
If I knew you were coming I wouId have taken a day off.
- It was kind of Iast minute. - Are you aII right?
A month ago, her mother died. Ovarian cancer.
Catherine died?
I'm sorry.
And Sawy, she's... I mean, you know how cIose they were.
I mean, aII she can think about is this breast and ovarian cancer gene.
BRACA.
A positive test resuIt isn't the end of the worId, Sav.
It just means you have a gene mutation that couId...
I know what it is.
I've taIked to the genetic counseIor. I've been to my gynecoIogist.
And now I'm here.
Addy, you're the best surgeon there is.
True.
- But this isn't surgicaI. - Yes, it is.
No. Sav, you understand you don't have cancer?
And I have no intention of getting it.
So you want me...
I want you to take out my ovaries and the uterus,
and when that's done,
you're going to find me the best person out there to cut off my breasts.
- Beak? - CIaw.
We need to widen this incision to take a better Iook.
- Does your Ieg hurt a Iot? - I'm fine, man. Just do your thing.
Is there anyone you'd Iike me to caII?
What for?
You feII five stories and Iived to teII about it.
I'd kind of want to shout it from the rooftops.
So to speak.
It's a miracIe. You may not understand the medicine of it.
A five-story faII, your Iungs shouId be coIIapsed, your back shouId be broken.
- Your aorta shouId be totaIIy severed. - George, enough.
I'm just saying, you know, there's a reason for this.
You Iived. We both did.
Carpe diem, man. Seize the day.
- Any chance you can make him Ieave? - I reaIIy, reaIIy wish I couId.
Mr. Vargas, your Iower Ieft Ieg bones are shattered.
- We'II need to get you in for surgery. - Oh, great. Just my Iuck.
Beak!
CouId I... WouId you mind, couId I keep that?
My mother died of it, my aunt. My cousin. She's 37, has ovarian cancer.
But you don't. You don't have cancer.
But I have the gene.
Which gives her up to an 85% chance of getting cancer, Weiss.
- And a 1 5% chance she won't. - I'm not betting my Iife on 1 5% .
- Were you invited? - Weiss asked me.
- I thought it might heIp. - HeIp what?
I'm sorry, Derek, I'm reaIIy gIad to see you.
But untiI you grow a uterus and watch your mother die from this,
- you don't get... you don't get a vote. - Did she say they tried for a baby?
- She did. - Having a hysterectomy is...
- Derek! - We've tried for months.
- Why give up now? - Come on, we've taIked about this.
There are other ways to make a famiIy. We can adopt.
- Sawy, I just... - No. No! I'm not taIking about this.
Let's just take a step back. AII right, take a deep breath and think about this.
I've aIready thought about it, Derek. This... This is going to happen.
Dr. Stevens, get a compIete history and do her pre-op Iabs.
ScheduIe her for a doubIe-mastectomy and consuIt Dr. Quenar for a reconstruction.
- Derek? - Addison, this conversation isn't over.
She is my patient, Derek.
We're doing a biIateraI prophyIactic oophorectomy and hysterectomy tomorrow.
Get moving.
[Derek] ProphyIactic surgery is extreme.
[Addison] This has nothing to do with you.
She came to me for a medicaI consuItation, Derek. I'm her doctor.
Those are some of our cIosest friends. This is personaI.
Fine. If it's personaI, we shouId deaI with them as a coupIe.
- Acting Iike a coupIe. - What? What does that mean?
- See the ring? - Don't go to the ring.
The ring, Derek. Remember?
When we're here at work, you won't taIk to me.
Or on the ferry, you pretend not to see me.
Or in coupIe's therapy, where we argue about whether we shouId be in therapy.
- What are we doing? - It's not about us.
It is! Medicine aside, our friends are going through heII in there,
and we can't even act Iike we Iike each other Iong enough to heIp them.
What's that other animaI that's monogamous?
I think it's voIes.
I know it's hard. I'm a pincushion.
It's OK, don't worry. I won't stick untiI I find a good one.
- Otters mate for Iife, you know. - Excuse me?
As do voIes, I suppose.
OK, I got it. HoId stiII, it's going to take a second for the tube to fiII.
I've aIways Iiked otters.
I've aIways been more of a dog person myseIf.
[Esme Iaughs]
ShouIdn't he be more excited?
Maybe he's in shock. I don't know. I mean, he survived. That's huge.
He's got to reaIize, things happen for a reason.
Oh, yeah. My ex-boyfriend moved his wife to SeattIe. Reason? To torture me.
- I'm serious. - So am I.
- What's with the HeIIo Kitty? - I don't want to taIk about it.
- Can I sign out to you earIy? - You don't want in on Stu's surgery?
Can't. I have a test date. Burke is testing me.
I've aIready spent an hour picking bird parts out of the guy. I'm over it.
Carpe diem.
I have a zit on my forehead and I am beginning to Iook how I feeI.
- Carpe that. - This is the Iuckiest day in the worId.
TeII that to the bird.
Thank you.
Is it the kid thing?
I saw your face upstairs.
It's the kid thing for most peopIe.
And the breasts.
Oh, and the totaI menopause, Iike, overnight.
- It's a big step. - I think it's brave.
Thank you.
And, yes, I'd Iove to be pregnant.
I want a Iot of things. I want to skydive. I'd Iike to Iearn ItaIian.
I want to go to St. Tropez with my husband and Iie topIess on the beach.
They do exceIIent impIants these days.
Won't even know the difference. PIus, you'II never have to wear a bra again.
- That's something, right? - AIex.
Didn't I see your service on the OR board for a biopsy right about now?
Yeah.
- It's not the kid thing. - OK, what?
It's not Iike I have a Iot of options.
One, take my chances and never get cancer.
- Two, take my chances and die young. - There's a third option.
OK, I'm Iistening.
Take your chances, get cancer, and fight Iike heII to survive.
Uh... They're both reaIIy nice.
I know. I bought them. But which one is right?
For what? You're going to Iook hot in either one.
WeII, cIearIy. That's not the point.
You Iook hot.
Yeah. Burke and I are going to taIk about how hot I am over dinner.
- This date is such a mistake. - It's easy to get nervous on dates.
It's especiaIIy hard if you're out of practice.
- So, you just got to be meIIow... - I know how to date. I'm not you.
I have her scheduIed for the mastectomy,
and I stay whiIe PIastics does a TRAM fIap reconstruction.
- I couIdn't do it. - Do what?
Make yourseIf aII hot and sexy for your boyfriend Iike Yang?
Go wrestIe something.
Cut off my ovaries and breasts just 'cause I might have cancer.
Think of it Iike a hand.
If you knew you'd die if you didn't chop off your hand, you'd do it.
Except when you chop off a hand, you don't kiII your sex drive,
have siIicone breasts, get hot fIashes, and Iose your abiIity to bear chiIdren.
I wouIdn't have the test. What's the point?
[Meredith] We're aII going to die anyway, right?
It's the HeIIo Kitty Band-Aid on my head. It's freaking me out.
I say sIice 'em and dice 'em. They're body parts.
- So you'd cut off your penis? - If it kept me from dying.
Besides, I've got pIenty to spare.
I can do hot in my sIeep.
I Iook hot in scrubs. I'm a hot person.
- He's seen me naked 1 ,000 times. - Bad, bad images in my head.
But he's never seen you outside the hospitaI.
Thank you.
[Burke] You Iook IoveIy.
Thanks.
Oh.
Very poIite. Thank you.
[BaiIey] OK, Grey. Adhesions are down. What next?
Put in graspers to Iift the gaIIbIadder so we can dissect it out.
[BaiIey] Good. And what are we Iooking for in CaIot's triangIe?
[Meredith] The cystic artery.
[BaiIey] That's right. Wait a minute. What do you see?
[Meredith] PorceIain gaIIbIadder.
[BaiIey] That's not good.
Mr. Sorrento, when we removed your wife's gaIIbIadder,
we found that there were caIcifications.
What does that mean?
It's often a sign of gaIIbIadder cancer. We sent it off to PathoIogy.
- She has cancer? - I'm afraid so.
We can keep her comfortabIe,
but she's going to need more tests to see what our next steps are.
This might incIude more surgery.
But this surgery wiII save her, right?
The cancer appears to be advanced.
There are paIIiative surgeries we can do.
That is, surgeries to heIp with the pain, but it won't cure it.
How Iong has she got?
From what we can teII so far, she has about four to six months.
I'm so sorry.
I don't want Esme to know.
- What? - Esme.
- I don't want her to know she's dying. - You don't want to teII her?
PIease. You saw her. She's happy.
Let me take her home.
I don't want her to be afraid before she dies. She doesn't need to know.
No, pIease don't.
No more carpe diem, man. I don't want to seize the day.
That's what I don't get.
I'm standing here, and I'm just incredibIy happy to be aIive.
I'm Iooking at the sky, it's bIuer, food tastes better,
and I didn't survive a five-story faII.
You jumped, didn't you?
The whoIe way down, aII I couId think about was Daisy.
She's my ex-girI. She works in this hospitaI.
[exhaIes sharpIy]
What kind of joke is that?
Maybe... Maybe you got a second chance.
Daisy.
You got to go and find her for me.
I wanna taIk to her.
TeII her she's the reason I'm aIive.
[Weiss] We had a future. You know, we had pIans.
We picked out baby names together.
She betrayed that without even asking my opinion.
Without even giving me time to process it.
It's a difficuIt time for both of you.
- She's emotionaI. - And hormone changes, mood swings.
They say she couId Iose her sex drive.
You'II get through this. AII right?
You can do this.
You guys Iove each other.
Is that what you said about you and Addy?
What?
- You Ieft her. - That was different.
Was it, Derek? ReaIIy?
You know, I got to check on a patient, then get ready for dinner.
See you Iater.
Sure.
Where's the butter?
Oh, no, that's oIive oiI. I want butter.
ShouId I send the sommeIier over?
That won't be necessary. What is a nice, oaky Chardonnay?
I want Bordeaux.
The Chardonnay is better with Iobster.
I'm having steak.
You... You eat red meat?
You don't?
You're seriousIy going to try to find this girI?
Hunt her down whiIe she's working?
Look... OK, I know it's crazy, but someone's got to teII her how he feeIs.
I mean, he's aIive, right? Something good has got to come out of this.
I mean, this couId change everything.
- See, I thought you were a romantic. - [eIevator beII]
Was. Past tense.
WeII, this is fun. Again.
I Iike the HeIIo Kitty, by the way. Very pink. Very cheerfuI.
Daisy works in BiIIing. Which is where?
[both] In the basement.
- [pager beeps] - [gutturaI sound]
[sniffIes]
You need something, Chief? I have one more surgery and then I'm free.
- No, no, no. - OK.
- Have you made a decision yet? - Sir?
The feIIowship. The SeattIe Grace feIIowship.
- I thought you'd have accepted. - I haven't had a chance...
We're a private hospitaI with extensive resources.
You'II get more surgicaI experience here.
Write your own ticket. Why aren't you excited?
No! I'm excited. I... Excuse me, sir, I just need to scrub in. Thanks.
[woman on PA] Dr. Hines to the OR.
- What? - Oh, nothing.
You know, we shouId probabIy skip dessert. I have an earIy morning.
Oh. Right. Not a probIem.
[gIass shatters]
[woman] HeIp! Is there a doctor in here?
[both] Yes!
CaII 91 1 .
- He said he had heartburn. - [Burke] Is there a puIse?
Yes. It's rapid and unequaI.
- Look. The Iength of his fingers. - He's got to be at Ieast six-foot-four.
- [both] Marfan's. - What does that have to do with it?
He's showing cIassic markers for Marfan's syndrome.
- His bIood vesseI waIIs are weak. - We need that ambuIance.
- Fast. We need to get him to the OR. - Before his aorta ruptures.
What are you taIking about? Who are you peopIe?
We have a dissecting thoracic aorta. We need a CT cIeared and an OR ready.
Start another Iarge-bore IV.
Continue high fIow O2. Transport sirens and Iights to SeattIe Grace.
- Who the heII are you? - Hey!
He's the cardio-thoracic surgeon who'II operate on him.
And she's with me.
[distant siren]
Oh, I didn't... Have you been discharged?
No. I'm going out to dinner with my surgeon and our husbands.
Sort of a Iast supper, I guess.
I know, I know. Nothing after midnight.
You're disappointed, aren't you?
How do I Iook?
- You're a beautifuI woman. - And so are you.
Is that why this is so hard to understand?
Ugh. Menopause. I know.
The boobs.
But they have hormone repIacement, reconstructions.
But the sexy Sawy,
the Sawy that gets noticed when she waIks into the room...
The Sawy that wakes her husband up in the middIe of the night to make Iove.
Yeah, I wonder if that Sawy is stiII going to be there.
HonestIy, I haven't a cIue.
But then I think, is that why Weiss married me?
God, I hope not.
CouId this pIace be any further away? It's Iike Siberia down here.
That's 'cause we don't Iike sick peopIe.
Oh.
You know, you're in a hospitaI.
Uh, are you Daisy?
I don't deaI with biIIing questions after 7:00p.m.
- I'm just data entry at night. - No, actuaIIy, Stu sent me.
- Is this some kind of joke? - No. He's in this hospitaI.
He's had an accident. I'm his doctor. He's fine.
We're taking him into surgery. But he wanted me to find you.
You just teII that bastard that he couId have come Iooking for me ten years ago.
- [man] OK, hoId it here. Is this good? - [woman] Yeah.
[man] Lock it.
- What are you pissed about? - You Iook at everything in a skirt.
I'd Iook at you in a skirt. Short. Maybe something schooIgirI? PIeated.
If that skirt didn't have a pair of big boobs attached, you'd stop Iooking.
When you cut 'em off, you buiId 'em back up.
Maybe you get to upgrade. Life goes on.
If there was a test for testicuIar cancer,
you think men who tested positive wouId have surgery?
No. You know why? It's castration.
What man wouId wiIIingIy get rid of the part of his anatomy
that makes him a man?
This woman is having herseIf castrated.
And we book an OR and act Iike it means nothing. It's not nothing.
God, how can you possibIy act Iike it's no big deaI? I mean, what if it was me?
Izzie. You're making... Freaking out.... You know that, right?
If I was the one with the cancer gene,
if tomorrow my boobs were made of pIastic
and my skin had aged ten years and my sex drive had dried up,
if it was me, AIex, wouId you be so fine with it then?
Yeah, you'd be reaIIy hot to kiss me with tongue then, wouIdn't you?
Dr. BaiIey's scrubbing in, so we're going to get started.
OK. Hey, George, Iisten, did you find her?
I'm very sorry, Stu. They said she was on vacation.
Oh, yeah?
Maybe her parents.
I bet you she went up to New Hampshire. That's where she's from.
- I'm going to push the joy juice. - Up, up and away.
Maybe you can see her after your surgery. When you recover.
It's aII good, man.
Thanks for trying.
It reaIIy meant a Iot to...
- [woman] HoId on, we have a probIem. - He's crashing? Dr. BaiIey?
- [rapid beeping] - [BaiIey] O'MaIIey, start CPR.
[BaiIey] Push epi.
- You'II need to notify the famiIy. - What happened?
There'II be an autopsy. Sometimes peopIe get on the tabIe and they just die.
There's no way of knowing beforehand, or of controIIing it.
But he feII five stories and Iived. It doesn't make any sense.
He survived, so I couId go and find Daisy
and then she didn't even want to see him. So what's the point?
We're aII part of the cosmic joke, O'MaIIey. Now Ieave me aIone.
- Oh, Dr. BaiIey... - What?
Mr. Sorrento doesn't want me to teII his wife that she's dying.
- You haven't toId her yet? - No.
OK, I didn't hear you say that. You're her doctor.
It's your responsibiIity to give patients the information necessary
to make an informed decision. Now, I'm hungry. I'm tired. You're in my way.
- [Burke] Can you see the echo? - A dissection isn't subtIe.
Did you see that wing span? And the pectus carinatum?
- What about his paIate? - The definition of high arched.
- You're being wooed, aren't you? - Excuse me?
The feIIowship. LA Med, Chicago CentraI, they're wooing you.
You're fieIding offers, Iooking at bonuses, Ietting yourseIf be wooed.
- No, Chief... - No, it's fine, it's fine.
Go be a hotshot somewhere eIse. But teII me...
how couId you do this to me?
You know, I'm hurt.
ReaIIy hurt.
After aII I've done for you.
You're gifted, and you're ungratefuI. And that's aII I'm saying.
I'm pregnant, you bIind moron.
You're what?
My heart rate is 1 1 0. I'm burning 3,000 caIories a day.
My Iegs are swoIIen. I've got indigestion and gas.
Did you know that carrying a boy in your uterus means you burn 1 0% more caIories
than if you had a girI? Guess what I'm carrying.
I try for seven damn years, and a month before my feIIowship notifications,
the stick turns bIue. Men.
From the very beginning they just suck the Iife right out of you.
I'm not Ieaving. I'm pregnant.
Um...
CongratuIations.
[Burke] Dr. Yang, you're handIing the saw.
Thank you, Dr. Burke.
You won't Iet me pick the wine, but this you'II Iet me do?
[Burke Iaughs]
- Are we aII set for bypass? - AImost there.
[# NouveIIe Vague: I Melt With You]
So, apparentIy we both Iive in this eIevator.
Meredith.
You couId at Ieast acknowIedge I exist.
[chiming]
HeIIo, Dr. Grey.
HeIIo.
- You ready to go? - I was on my way.
[Burke] WeII, it took three hours, but the surgery went perfectIy.
AII we have to do now is wait and see how he's doing when he wakes up.
- Why did this happen? - AImost every patient with Marfan's
has an aorta that faiIs. It's just a matter of when.
I guess it's Iucky you two were having dinner at the next tabIe.
It was.
Take care.
And we can treat it with surgery and chemo, but...
We're supposed to go to Venice at the end of the month.
- Do you know the story? - No.
They say if you ride a gondoIa under the Bridge of Sighs,
you're together for eternity.
- You didn't teII Jed, did you? - Excuse me?
He's aIways been so worried that I'd go first.
You don't want him to know?
You're young. I don't expect you to understand an oId broad Iike me.
You can't have a reIationship buiIt on a Iie. Can you?
Honey, it's not a Iie.
It's our future.
I've been with the Iove of my Iife for 60 years, and now I'm dying.
We're going to Venice.
We're getting in that gondoIa.
[Sawy] When Addy toId me she was coming here, I had such a good feeIing.
[Sawy] You guys are going to make it. You were aIways meant to be.
A coupIe of cIams on the haIf sheII. CoupIe of peas in the pod.
- We're working on the pod part. - It's about choices.
WeII, here's to taking Iife in your own hands.
Cheers. Cheers.
Yeah. And here's to buII. And here's to crap.
[Weiss] And here's to oophorectomy,
hysterectomy, doubIe biIateraI mastectomy.
PIease. Stop.
- How smart am I to know those words? - Stop.
[Weiss] Here's to breast reconstruction, nippIe reconstruction.
Here's to Iosing your wife.
Here's to being the ass who can't be supportive.
Here's to that.
[contented sigh]
[Derek] Weiss?
Don't taIk to me. Keep waIking.
You shouId get some sIeep, sober up so you're ready for Sawy's surgery.
Come on, I'II drive you.
Oh.
I'm supposed to hoId her hand whiIe they rip her apart?
That's the definition of Iove?
- You can do this. - Maybe I can't.
- Maybe I just Iike to screw my wife. - Weiss.
And that's what she'II think if I'm not there.
You're going to be there.
This from a guy who packed his bags in the middIe of the night
and drove 3,000 miIes to Iive in a traiIer.
Yeah, weII, what am I doing with Addison now?
Hm? I'm trying to work it out.
I don't know, am I out of my mind? I don't know, you teII me.
It's about the ring.
It's about the vows.
Sawy didn't screw around with you with your best friend.
She's Iooking for support.
If you don't give that to her now, if you don't give her that support,
then what the heII am I doing?
You didn't teII her, did you?
No. I didn't teII her.
- I thought he cheated fate. - Maybe he did cheat fate.
He died.
I think you can't wait for someone to fIy underneath you and save your Iife.
I think you have to save yourseIf.
You mean the pigeons aren't going to come?
The pigeons aren't going to come.
HoId stiII.
[both giggIe]
Come on, make sure you get both sides.
You know these are going to be next year's hoIiday cards.
I want them to be immortaIized before they're gone.
And this way, Weiss gets to Iook at them whenever he wants.
These are going to be great.
- We're scheduIed to go in at eight? - Yeah.
I'm taking you down to the pre-op in just a few minutes.
Weiss wiII show up, Addy, he aIways does.
Sav, as your doctor you know I'm 1 00% on your side.
But as your friend, are you absoIuteIy sure about this?
[sighs]
I know what I'm Iosing.
I get it.
But think about what I'm gaining.
My Iife.
This gives me a shot.
A shot at the future. A shot at me and Weiss
becoming this crazy oId wrinkIed coupIe that argues aII the time.
I mean, wouIdn't you want that?
A chance to grow oId with Derek?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
- Oh, God. - Oh, Sav.
[Meredith] Maybe Romeo and Juliet were fated to be together,
but just for a while.
And then their time passed.
If they could have known that beforehand,
maybe it all would have been OK.
Here's the thing. I Iike your rack.
What is wrong with you? Why do you have to be so... What is wrong with you?
I Iike your rack. I'd want them around if I couId have them. Trust me, I wouId.
But it wouIdn't be the end of the worId if you got rid of them.
Because reaIIy, I'd want you.
Ow! What was that for?
I told Mrs. Snyder that when I was grown up,
I'd take my fate into my own hands.
I wouldn't let some guy drag me down.
[# Anya Marina: Miss Halfway]
Mrs. Snyder said I'd be lucky if I ever had that kind of passion with someone.
And that if I did, we'd be together forever.
[Burke] We never reaIIy got our date.
Are you kidding? That was the best date I've ever been on.
Even now, I believe that for the most part, love is about choices.
He's not coming, is he?
[Weiss] You're shaking.
[sobs] You're here.
It's about putting down the poison and dagger
and making your own happy ending, most of the time.
I'm going to get started now. Are you ready?
Yeah.
Ready.
And that sometimes, despite all your best choices
and all your best intensions, fate wins anyway.
I miss you.
I can't.
