CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN testing 1-2-3. season three, episode twenty four.
IT WAS EXAM DAY, AND CASSIE WAS TOTALLY FREAKING OUT. If you looked at Cassie's track record of important tests, you would see that she'd aced every single one of them, quite literally; she'd never gotten anything less than one hundred percent on a test since her first day of college when she was fourteen years old.
Still, Cassie was totally freaking out. She hadn't slept in two days, and had her deck of three hundred flash cards practically burned into her brain.
It'd been like this for every exam she'd ever taken. She freaks out, has a panic attack right before, takes the test, and is super confident afterwards.
It's an exhausting cycle.
"How do you treat pancreatic divisum?" Cassie asked, sitting criss crossed on the kitchen counter. "Blondie?"
Izzie stayed silent, making Cristina shout her name to get her attention.
"Ugh, guys," Izzie groaned. "If you're not gonna let us sleep, you at least have to let me put coffee in my cup."
Cristina shrugged. "Okay, so go. No one's stopping you."
"I'm too tired to go."
"Pancreatic divisum," Cassie repeated.
"Dorsal duct sphincterotomy," Alex answered with a yawn, sitting down to eat his cereal.
"Not your turn, but correct," she nodded, handing him the flash cards. "Good job. Now you do me."
"I can't believe O'Malley's missing this," he sighed, taking the cards from her hands. "How's he gonna be ready?"
"Oh, you're kidding, right?" Cristina scoffed. "We have Callie's cards, but George has—"
"George has Callie," Izzie cut her off.
"But you know what?" Cristina shook her head. "We have Cassie, who is McAngel, Dr. Genius, and our own personal textbook all wrapped into one. We'll be fine."
Cassie tilted her head. "Thank you?"
"What's the most frequent cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients?"
"Is Callie coming to this bachelorette thing tonight?" Izzie asked.
"Rotavirus. Yes," Cristina answered both questions. "Uh, no, no, no. Uh, salmonella."
"Diarrhea in hospitalized patients," Alex repeated.
"The most frequent cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients is C Diff, which can lead to toxic megacolon, perforation, sepsis and death," Cassie answered, after chugging her third coffee of the morning.
