"I have a feeling." Evi says laying in bed staring at the ceiling of her bedroom.

"Is it a bad one?" Fletcher asks laying beside her.

"I don't know. It's just there." She says.

"Well, what does it feel like?" He asks shifting so he was leaning on one shoulder.

"Like I might die." Evi says bluntly.

"Eve."

"I'm being serious. It's like gnawing at my heart, like-like I might blow up or something." She says turning her head to face him.

"You're not gonna die. Or blow up." He says. "You'll be fine." He says brushing some hair out of her face.

She lets out a sigh and turns her head back to face the ceiling.

The next minute Cristina slams the door open. "Good your up." She says.

"No. I'm staying home. I have a feeling." Evi says looking at her briefly.

Cristina looks to Fletcher for some help.

"I tried." He says.

Cristina huffs and walks over to the bed. She grabs Evi's hand and yanks her up.

"Let's go!" She demands pushing Evi out of the room.

"Surgeries to get! Let's go!" She ushers her into the bathroom.

Meredith and a Evi walk through the sliding doors to outside the pit where the ambulances come in. They come up behind where Izzie and Alex are standing together and Cristina and George are standing in front of them.

"So you want to do charts later?" Alex asks Izzie.

"Never gonna happen." Izzie says.

"What?"

"Alex, I gave you your chance. You had your chance and you slept with someone else."

George rolls his eyes and Cristina looks like she wants to crack up laughing. She and George both chuckle.

"I forgave you in the spirit of being a bigger person. Of rising above but these legs are closed to you now. The panties are staying on. So you and me? Never gonna happen."

"So you don't wanna do charts later?"

"Go stand over there." She gestures for to move away from her.

"Can we get back to the point?" Cristina says.

"You had a point?" George asks.

"Yeah, which surgeon are we going to have to suck up to today?"

"That would be me!" They all turn around startled and find Dr. Bailey looking very pregnant but still dressed in normal everyday clothing standing behind them.

"Dr. Bailey?" Evi asks.

"I've been gone 2 weeks. 2 weeks! And you ran off 2 residents! I've got people phoning me at home, screaming telling me my interns are Rosemary's babies." They all looking slightly offended.

"Nobody wants you! Do you think I have time for this? I am pregnant! I'm supposed to be on bed rest. I'm supposed to be growing a human being. I'm supposed to be calm! Do I look calm to you? Did I raise you fools to be pariahs?" George pushes past Meredith and Izzie and walks up right to Bailey who looks confused at George's behavior. He grabs her in a tight hug.

"You're back." George says hugging her.

"Ah! I'm not back." Bailey says.

George tightens the hug. "You're not?"
