into you like a train

Trainwrecks are quite an interesting topic. First, there are the human trainwrecks. Cassie knows this best because she only seems to befriend trainwrecks and she's watching the train wreck itself over and over again, case and point: Meredith Grey. Then, there are train trainwrecks. The ones were the train goes off the rails or collides with a car that's trying to outrun the train. She's not sure which one is worse, the physical one or the emotional one. Either way, she doesn't want to get her train wrecked.

Trauma gowns dressed on, rubber gloves on and trauma full steam ahead. They followed Bailey into the ER, where chaos found it's the definition. "I'm so not tired anymore." Cristina insisted.

"Me neither. I'm not tired either." George also insisted as they looked around the ER.

As each case came in and George and Cassie were the only ones left that weren't assigned a case, other than a drunk Meredith and an Alex who went to get Bailey's shoes to replace her high heel ones. Cassie becomes so thankful for that when two people come in attached on a pole together. So, George, Cassie, and a Meredith when she no longer drunk are with the people attached by the pole, and she's never felt luckier.

"O'Malley, take them to x-ray," Bailey ordered. George thanked her and began to rush to take off his trauma gown before Cassie grabbed the knot to untie it. "Move them extremely carefully."

Cassie, Meredith, and Alex followed Dr. Bailey out of the trauma room (Meredith swaying). "Alex, you can do sutures while you get over your new found fear of scalpels." Cassie tried to stifle a laugh but ended up snorting instead, luckily not loud enough. Bailey then yelled at Meredith for being drunk and then walked with Cassie to join George and Dr. Burke (and later Meredith) to look at the x-rays. 

"Is it going straight through her spine?" George asked staring at the scans.

"It is. T8's completely crushed." Bailey explained. Cassie winced imagining that pain, even though Bonnie (one of the patients) was in shock.

Dr. Shepherd then walked in and of course, there was this little conversation with Meredith and why she had what looked like yellow piss going into her arm. Cassie thought a women's T8 being completely crushed was more important, but whatever. Soon, he looked over and saw the scans. "These people are still alive?" He asked.

"They're still making small talk," Cassie answered.

"The pole's tamponading the wound as fas as we can see," Bailey said.

"It's hitting the aorta." Dr. Shepherd spotted on the black and white image.

"Look at him." Dr. Burke told Dr. Shepherd. "It's right in line with his inferior vena cava."
