Ivy sits in Baileys office, trying to work out her maternity leave later in the year. Webber storms in as Ivy winces in pain. Pressing on a sensitive part of her abdomen, she focuses on what he's saying.

"I want to meet with the residents immediately."

"Can I be there for whatever this is? You look like your about to torture some residents and I love it," she jokes, rubbing the pain away.

Ivy stands next to Webber as he asks, "When a bedridden patient stays in one place, what's the outcome?"

"Bedsores."

"Exactly. When a surgeon stays in one place, what's the outcome?"

Edwards jokes, "One of us has bedsores?"

Ivy shakes her head, "Stagnation. Complacency. Limited mind."

Webber nods, "You have a short time to learn here, people, and you've snuggled up to your specialties like a warm, comfy bed. Well, I am your alarm clock. I'm pulling you out of bed and broadening your education. This is a resident scarmble."

As they all groan, Ivy jumps in, "Or I can assign you all. Or you can pick out of the hat. I would go with the hat. Draw your new, random service."

"Bingo, Neuro Shepherd," Edwards draws.

"Put it back! Back," Webber tells her.

Meredith, Ivy and Maggie discuss a patient as Wilson joins them, "Did you see the scans?"

"Yeah, sorry I'm late. I was meeting with Bailey, then Webber and the residents and then I had a phone call with Bauer Medical. They say that Carsons recovering well and his incision sites and flaps are doing great," Ivy lists.

"That is great news," Meredith smiles.

"Yeah, Dr. Thorpe though so, too. He also thought you might have given him the wrong number," Ivy drops.

"Thorpe? Who is Thorpe?" Maggie asks.

Meredith ignores her, "He has the right number."

Ivy grabs booties, "Oh, okay, so you're just gonna what, ignore his calls?"

Maggie and her sit down, "Will someone please tell me what is going on and who he is?"

"Meredith exchanged numbers with a hot military surgeon over at Bauer. He says he called but radio silence," Ivy says.

"Its nothing."

"Why wouldn't you tell me this?" Maggie asks.

Meredith chuckles, "Because it's nothing."

Wilson sits next to Meredith, causing her to ask, "Wilson, are you following me?"

"I'm with you today. I'm on your service."

"Blake is with me."

Ivy shakes her head, "Nope. Webber switched all of the residents."
