Saving Lives (Grey's Anatomy / Mark Sloan) -Editing

1.05

A couple hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. "Never leave that till tomorrow," he said, " which you can do today." This is the man who discovered electricity. You'd think more of us would listen to what he had to say.

-Meredith Grey

(Season one, episode six)

"She's going to be late again." The male intern in the kitchen said while spilling coffee on himself.

"Yeah, and so will we if we don't get out of this house in the next five seconds. And you should both know by now that when I walk out that door I do not come back until the end of a shift." Claire said, putting her bag on her shoulder and walking out the door with Izzie following her.

Most of the interns were walking behind Bailey before she stopped in front of a room and started looking at the other two interns that decided to finally show. "Cristina, you're late." She says.

"So is Meredith." Responded the intern, making the resident roll her eyes.

"When we walk in this door, you will maintain decorum. You will not laugh, vomit, or drop your jaw. Are we understood?" Bailey asked.

"Why would we laugh?" Izzie questioned. Just then Bailey opened the door to the room.

"Good morning, Miss Connors." The resident said to the patient who responded with a good morning as well.

"What is it?" George whispered to Cristina.

"Tumor." She responded.

"Good morning, Annie. How are you? This is Dr. Bailey and my fellow interns." Alex said in a weirdly nice tone.

"Dr. Karev we refer to the patients as 'mister' an-" Bailey started but got cut off by Annie.

"I told him to call me 'Annie' 'Miss Connors' makes me feel old and fat, which I am, but why feel like that?" She says, making the interns in the room smile and nod at her comment.

"Good morning." Burke says as he walks into the room.

"Annie, this is Dr. Burke. Awesome surgeon." Alex, mumbling the last part.

"Dr. Karev." The resident says, already fed up with her intern.

"Annie Connors is a forty-three year old woman who presented last night with progressive shortness of breath for the past three months. Found to have a very large tumor of unknown origin pressed against her diaphragm. Stable vital signs. Scheduled for a CT this morning, sir." Alex presents to Burke.

"Thank you, Dr. Karev." The cardiac surgeon tells the intern. "Are you at all claustrophobic?" He asks the patient.

"I've been housebound for the last year. How claustrophobic can I be?" Annie says with a little giggle at the end.

"All right then. Dr. Stevens is going to take you up for a CT. It'll give us a better look at the tumor and we'll know how to proceed." Burke said before Annie asked if they could tell her mother to which he said yes.
