"Work keeps our minds active, it keeps us out of trouble. When we're not working, our hands are idle, and the devil will find work for idle hands to do. And when you have an idle mind, well, that's the devils playground, too.""I love the new logo. It really catches the eye." Webber says out loud, "And, uh, these coffee sleeves— excellent thermal retention."
Derek nods at him, before pointing to the wall, "What's up with the sheet?"
Everyone turns to look at it, "I thought you guys put it there for some kind of unveiling." Jackson shrugs.
"Well, somebody should say a few words, right?" Webber asks, "I mean, it's unlucky not to."
Callie and Arizona walks up to the desk, "Hey, why are you guys staring at the wall?"
"Oh, we're waiting for the..." Cristina waves her hand, "Big unveiling."
Callie hums, "Mm. Well, you should be staring at my wife."
"New haircut?" Meredith questions.
"No. It's her leg. She's wearing high heels." Callie motions turns Arizona so everyone can see, "Because she has a sexy high heel leg that makes her ass go pow."
Everyone exclaims different ohh's and ahh's, chuckling
"Come on guys, you can comment too." Callie turns to the men, "Its the one time in your life you can say it."
Jackson shakes his head, "I don't think my very pregnant partner would agree."
Derek laughs, "She still angry at you?"
"That's an understatement." Jackson rolls his eyes, "All I did was make her start her maternity leave. Thought she would like the extra rest before the baby comes."
Derek raises a brow, "You really think that woman likes to rest?"
Jackson sighs, "She needs it. And technically I didn't do anything wrong. Her leave was supposed to start last week, she's a week behind."
"How many times have you apologized?" Meredith asks him.
Jackson sends her a look, "It seems to be the only thing I do. She's lucky she's so cute."
"Are we doing an unveiling?" Arizona questions, pointing to the sheet.
Jackson shakes his head, "I think the painters actually just left that there." Walking over to tear it down and reveal the new sign, "Let's get back to work. End of speech."
He grabs his tablet, walking away. Meredith turns to Derek, "Wanna bet how long it takes until Solace shows up?"
Derek snorts, "I give it by lunch time today."
Meredith smirks, "I say before that." Both of them making their way to the locker rooms.
"Oh, you're on."
