Ellie sat in the residence lounge as she attended a meeting

"Fifth year is the hardest year of your residency. Every surgery you do will go on your record, the wins and the losses. In just a few months, you will... " Owen said as Meredith comes in late. She sits down next to Cristina.

"What did I miss?" Meredith asked

"You're O.B. now? Oh, how the mighty have fallen, huh?" Jackson said as he looked to see Meredith in pink scrubs

" She misses Zola. Her uterus hurts." Alex said

"Oh, leave her alone, dirtbag. " cristina said

"Yeah back off" Cassie said

"Of the more complicated surgeries you've scrubbed in." Owen said

"Of course that's nothing compared to Karev's impressive five bad outcomes. "

" I keep getting dud patients. " alex said

"Your the dud" cassie said

"Tell it to your board examiners. The point, people, is to keep your bad outcomes to a minimum, or you will be hard-pressed to find a fellowship next year. " owen said

"Uh, Dr. Yang, are you sure that you're getting all this down? " Owen asked

"Bad outcomes are bad, which is why I have zero so far, a perfect record I plan to continue during my ortho rotation this week. No one dies during a hip replacement. " cristina said

" Let's hope." Owen said as Ellie rolled her eyes at how cocky she was being
