Raindrops keep on falling on my head,
As I walk along, feeling somewhat misled.But I find solance in the rhythm they create,A gentle melody, washing away any weight.In the rain, I find peace, a moment to meditate
As Cristina, George, and Amory enter Joe's, after George had punched Alex, the bar cheered. "All hail the champ!" Joe exclaimed. "So my guy, Alex, finally got what was coming to him, huh?"
"George knocked him dead in one punch, should have seen it." Cristina bragged, as Amory laughed and flopped down next to Meredith.
"I don't wanna talk about it!" The boy said.
"Brag champ, you've earned it." Joe encouraged.
"Can I have a beer, please?" George order.
"Gin and tonic for me, please." Amory did the same.
"Let's play a game of whose life sucks the most," Meredith suggests. "I'll win, I always win."
"I'm good. Just here for moral support." Amory claimed with a smile.
"Well, you don't wanna play with me." The small girl looked at Cristina, knowing what she was hiding, as she took a sip of her drink.
"Oh, I do. I'll even go first." Meredith dared. "Derek is married." At that, George spits his beer out, surprised like Amory.
"George, beer is dripping down your nostrils." Cristina pointed out, disgust in her face that mirrored Amory's expression, and the boy got up.
"Married? To who?" The blonde asked.
"Some woman called Addison, from when he lived in NYC. Told you I'd win."
"No, you didn't win." The Asian woman deadpanned.
"Did you hear me? I said Derek is married. As in pigheaded, adulterous, liar, married." Amory kept drinking her beverage, as Meredith went on. "Nothing you can say can top that."
"I'm pregnant." Cristina let out, making Meredith look at her in surprise. "I win."
Just then, they heard Joe falling to the floor behind them and got up to help.
The man stood up, as Amory protested. "Joe, you gotta lie back down."
"You called the gurney patrol?" The bartender complained as the three woman helped him.
"Sit back and relax, we've gotta take you to the hospital to run some tests," Meredith told him.
"No, I don't need any tests. I'm fine."
"Joe, you just collapsed in the middle of the floor. You need to go to the hospital if you like it or not." The short girl told him.
"This is your bar, you know how filthy this floor is." Cristina pointed out. "Radial pulse is strong."
