George is tired from his first day back so he lays on an open gurney in the hall by the nurses station. And hears someone say
" Dr. O'Malley."
" What do you want?" He says angrily.
" Um I need help with this one guys central line."
He sits up. And turns to the intern.
" You need help with a central line?"
" Yes."
" I have not slept good in three months, I was happily sleeping!"
He gets up and does the line.
" Now, Price if I have to do that again you will be doing scut for a month, am I clear?"
" Yes, sir."
George realizes it's time for lunch and heads to the cafeteria. When he gets there he sees Meredith and Carter at a table with Alex.
" Hey guys." He says.
" Hey how were your interns?"
" Well there is this one who woke me up to do a central line. And I was having a good nap and I yelled and it looks like he was scared of me."
" Damn didn't know O'Malley could be mean."
" Yeah how were your interns?"
" Mine are great." Alex states.
" Mine too." Meredith adds.
They finish lunch and George takes Carter back to daycare. On his way there he over hears his interns. He sits by they door and waits. One of them starts.
" O'Malley is an ass. I hate him."
"Did you hear he is married to Meredith Grey. And they just had a baby."
" Do you think she lost a bet? And I heard he had to repeat his intern year."
George walks in without them noticing.
" Well if you wanna know everything, I'm married to Meredith Grey. We have a three month old son that I'm holding. She didn't lose a bet. I may have repeated my intern year, but my life is pretty damn great at my job. You all will either fail or succeed. So I suggest if you want to talk about your resident make sure there is not a way for them to find out. I can make your lives a living hell! So anything else anyone has to say?"
They shake their heads no.
" Then get the hell back to work now!"
They scurry and George takes Carter to daycare. He pages Meredith to an on-call room. She walks in with a smile on her face.
" Hey why did you page me?"
" I just need to relax with my wife for a little while."
" Okay, something is wrong are you alright."
" It's my first day back and I have a beautiful family. I have everything I could want. I heard my interns talking. And they were saying all these things about you and me. And I lost it, I flipped out and I realized that I was still on my way to take Carter to daycare. And I got so mad I yelled and screamed. When I was done I looked down at him and remembered that I shouldn't let the interns get to me."
" Oh that's horrible."
She gets up and opens the door.
" I'll be back later."
