BURKE: Christina? (Everyone takes a break from arguing to stare)
ADDISON: Oh this is just perfect. (He sees Addison, and pauses)
ADDISON: Dr. Bailey can I get...
(And she sees Mark.) (She finishes off her drink, and walks toward the door)
CALLIE: Only if you have it delivered to my hotel room 'cause I'm off to bed. ADDISON: That's not what the patient wants and it's our job as doctors to balance the desires of the patient against the risk of complication, so if the patient wants a natural birth...
ALEX: So if the patient wants a natural birth, it's not surgical. And he was just trying to keep his word. And surgeons to confront. Aren't you happy to have a boyfriend who works in the hospital? But he's...he's a salesman, that's who he is. CALLIE: It's always Izzie or Meredith. DEREK: Great
GEORGE: Okay let's get you prepped and ready for surgery...Oh. DEREK: She's still in surgery. DEREK: Will you look after her, please? He has such a nice face. I want him to be the one. I was a better man for walkig away. I'm...
BAILEY: A woman who gets the hots for man candy and cheats on her husband? Inside is a cheque to her for $8,700,000.) MEREDITH: Derek, Finn, Derek Finn. MEREDITH: I just need to make a choice and get it over with. That's a good sign. What he can't sell me on is going back to work before he gets his oxygen levels up.

Addison works with a pregnant woman who wants to give birth naturally, but needs to have a cesarean section . Addison begins to doubt her abilities as a surgeon after Derek broke up with her; Addison takes Alex off her rotation. Meredith is high from the painkillers and she and Addison speak frankly and apologize to each other. The interns work with a car salesman who wants to get back to his regular routine after he has a risky surgery, however, he lights a cigarette that catches his face on fire. Derek and Mark argue over the best way to treat him, each believing that their specialty is the most important and pressing. Callie breaks things off with George after he stands her up for Izzie, and she later hooks up with Mark. Derek clears Burke for surgery again, but Burke has serious doubts about whether his hand is ready or able to perform surgery again. He keeps his doubts to himself, except to tell Cristina. He practices on a corpse and he and Cristina realize his hand can't perform surgery unless he has help. They decide together to hide the truth by having Cristina assist him in his surgeries. After her surgery, Meredith makes a decision between Derek and Finn, telling Finn that he is a good man and probably a better man, but Derek is "the one". Izzie meets Denny's father, who gives her 8.7 million dollars according to Denny's wishes.
