Static

Chapter 4

Stanley: "He got hit during a scrimmage." he says as a football player was brought into the ER

Derek: "Are you the coach?"

Adam: "He's my dad."

Stanley: "And his coach. He was charging the receiver after the kickoff. He got blocked, had his head down, couldn't see the other guy coming."

Adam: "I had my head down because the guy blocking me was holding it down."

Stanley: "You could've gotten past that guy."

Sky: "I need you to leave the room." she demands as a nurse motions him to the door

Derek: "Okay, let's cut him out of his equipment. I need the saw. Dr. Grey, I need you to help me stabilize his neck and his head, please. It's very important, Adam, that you not move your head. I need you to keep perfectly still. Don't move. Relax." he says as they start up a saw to cut his helmet off

➿

Doctor: "We need a little help here!" he calls out as Sky runs into the room along with Alex and Izzie behind her

Adele: "Oh, thank god. Somebody I know. Will somebody please make sure they page my husband?"

Alex: "Is that?"

Izzie: "It's the chief's niece."

Doctor: "Camille Travis, 18, I tried intubating 3 times."

Sky: "There's some kind of obstruction."

Arlene: "My baby can't breathe."

Doctor: "Sats staying down. They're at 82%."

Sky: "She needs a surgical airway. Somebody get me a crike tray. You ever done one before?"

Izzie: "Uh no."

Sky: "Well now you will." she says as they prepare Camille and she hands Izzie the intruments

Izzie: "Uh...are you sure I should be the one to do this?" she whispers to Sky

Sky: "You need to learn how. This is how. Do it."

Izzie: "What if I mess up?"

Sky: "Then you'll have to deal with a very angry chief. So don't mess up." she says holding the instrument out to Izzie again who takes it

Doctor: "Pulse is getting weaker."

Adele: "What are you doing?"

Sky: "Trying to help her breathe."

Arlene: "She just slit her throat!" she yells out when Izzie cuts Camille's throat

Izzie: "Suction. I need suction. Get the retractors in."

Alex: "There's so much blood. You didn't hit an artery, did you?"

Izzie: "No, not on purpose."

Adele: "Oh, god. Oh, god."

Sky: "Get the tube."

Adele: "Oh, god."

Doctor: "Sats are going up."

Izzie: "Oh, we did it."

Sky: "Nice work."

Adele: "Oh, Richard!"

Richard: "What the hell are you doing to my niece?" he yells out when he comes into the room

➿

Richard: "One thing this child did not need was another surgery."

Alex: "She wasn't breathing, chief."

Izzie: "We didn't know what else to do."

Richard: "You did the right thing. But Camille was diagnosed with ovarian cancer when she was 14. She's had both ovaries removed, a hysterectomy and now this..."

Sky: "There it is, the mass."

Izzie: "No wonder she couldn't breathe."

Richard: "I can take it out. But we won't know how many more there are until we do further studies."

Sky: "I'm so sorry, chief."

Richard: "She beat it twice before. She'll beat it again."

➿

Derek: "Hey, what do you think is a better weekend getaway, Napa or Sonoma?" he asks when Mark joins him and Sky in a room

Mark: "I hope you don't mind if I kill your girlfriend."

Derek: "Well, first of all, she's not my girlfriend. Second of all, I do mind."

Mark: "Interns should be seen and not heard. They shouldn't talk to patients."

Sky: "That's how they learn."

Mark: "Which means I have to teach, and then I have to deal with their problems when they screw up."

Derek: "Meredith rarely screws up, and she's not an intern. So Napa or Sonoma, what do you think?"

Both: "Sonoma." they say at the same time casually while not looking up from what they're doing, making Derek glance between the both of them

Derek: "Mm."

Mark: "Smaller hotels, fewer tourists. And Meredith...she's still an intern. Don't kid yourself. She's green, she's a baby, and the only difference between her and that old guy she's got trailing her is that you're not sleeping with the old guy."

Derek: "So...Sonoma?" he asks once Mark walks out the room and he turns to look at Sky with a questioning and teasing look

Sky: "Good times, that's all I'm saying." she says not looking up from her laptop

➿

Sky: "So you guys are over?" she asks as they sit outside his trailer drinking beer while watching the rain fall

Derek: "We never got back together."

Sky: "Well whatever you guys were is over now?"
Derek: "We're on different paths. They might cross each other one day but just not right now." he says as she looks at him before shaking her head

Sky: "Like I said...you two are confusing."

Derek: "That we are." he says as they clink bottles together
