Ivy holds on to Jacksons arm as they walk towards the hospital. The survivors have meetings the whole day but she and Jackson get coffee every morning together. This morning, Catherine and Webber walk up to them, "Catherine."

"Mom. How was breakfast?" Jackson asks, hugging his mother after Ivy.

"Ah, informative. And based on how Ivy is dressed, it's true. Which means, it's time for you to come to Boston," Catherine tells Jackson, but looks at Ivy as well.

Jackson and Ivy share looks before Jackson looks to Webber. "What have you done?"

Webber tries to defend himself, "Okay, now just wait a second."

Catherine interjects, "I've seen the kind of garbage that goes on in a Pegasus hospital. If your options are either working for them or this hospital shutting down altogether-"

"Catherine. Okay, this hospital is not shutting down. In uncertain times, men like Jackson and myself have to stand tall. We can't pack up and flee at the first sign of trouble. A man who does not bend to the winds of change is a man that you can be proud of," Webber says, causing Ivy to look down.

Jackson wraps his arm around her as Catherine looks at Webber, "Thats poetic."

"Um, well, this is fun and all, but I have a meeting to get to. If you'll excuse me," she goes to leave but is stopped by Catherine.

"Oh, no dear. He didn't mean you. Richard told me about the situation you were in and I think you made the right choice. And, if things don't work out, there's a spot for you in Boston," Catherine hugs her.

"Thank you, but I really need to get going. See you later," She kisses Jacksons cheek before running out.

Ivy takes a breath as they go through the plan, "Okay, so this time, I'll do the peds stuff first, then Ivy can do trauma."

"And then I will go into the neuro," Derek raises his hand.

"Okay, can somebody else do the closing? I-I was awful last time we practiced," Callie asks.

"No, you were fine," Arizona comforts her wife.

Callie sasses, "We really want to end on my flop sweats?"

Ivy nods, "I'll do the closing."

A secretary comes up to the group, "I'm sorry. It should be just a few more minutes. Can I get you any water or coffee?"

Everyone says there fine but Cristina, "Coffee. And a bagel or something. I'm starving. This meeting was supposed to start half an hour ago."

"Okay, he's a billionaire. One of his minutes is worth 40 of ours," Callie remarks.

Arizona shakes her head, "I can't believe we got this meeting in the first place."

"Yeah, nice job, Stan," Derek turns to the finance guy.

"I really believe Julian Crest is our guy. He made all his money in late stage internet mobile. Medical tech is the one area he doesn't have a foothold. Your focus on applied research, it's right up his alley," Stan nods at the group.

Cristina grumbles, "Yeah, well, someone should buy him a watch."

Meredith laughs before calling Brooks. The secretary comes back, "We're all set if you'll follow me."
