Grace sat in her therapy session.
"Come on. You don't even know how you're doing. We had our first honest conversation about your feelings, and now you want to leave. That timing doesn't strike you as strange" her therapist asked as grace looked to her and rolled her eyes
"No! And I'm still firing you. " Grace said
"No, you're quitting. "
"No, I'm not quitting. I don't quit things. " grwcr said
"Well, actually, you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you And if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It's what you know how to do. " she said as grace glared. She was angry
"Now you're really fired. " Grace said as she leaves.
"Now we're getting somewhere."

Grace and Derek are doing some paperwork.
"All right. I'm very optimistic about this new viral cocktail. Adding in I. L. -2 should make a very big difference. We're close. We're gonna open this bottle of champagne soon." Derek said as she looked to him and smiled
"I know. " Grace said
"You okay? " derek asked
" I'm fine" Grace said. She knew how she still hadn't told him that she was in therapy
"Listen, clinical trials can be a grind. If this is getting to you, I can do this one on my own. " ne said
"I'm not a quitter. I don't need you to rescue me. Let's just do this. " she said as she placed her hand on his shoulder and smiled as she leant in and kissed him. They enter the patient's room.
"Because waiting is a bad idea. I mean, we're talking about your health"
"Dr. Shepherd can say no if it's such a problem."
"What am I saying no to? " derek said
"Is there any way you could push back the surgery a few hours? My boyfriend's flight was cancelled. I want him to be here. " greta asked
"Greta. "
"He has some questions. He's so smart about this stuff. I don't even know what to ask. "
"Are you reconsidering the procedure?" Derek asked
"Andre and I have had so little time together. We met in January. I mean, this treatment could kill me, right? " greta asked
" You have a very aggressive tumor. Even if we don't operate, you're looking at a few months. "
" But I'd spend them with andre. Do you know how precious that is, time with the person you love? " she asked as Derek looked to Grace and smiled
"Greta, please. "
"I'm not saying I want to cancel. I'm just saying I want to wait for Andre. He'll help me to decide. "
