Season 5, Episode 4: "There's No 'I' in Team"
Derek: The Chief has me doing press all day with journalists. My face is starting to hurt from smiling.
Meredith: I already pushed that.
Derek: It comes faster when I push it.
Meredith: Oh, it must be that Shepherd method.
Derek: Funny.
Meredith: I think I'll take the stairs.
Derek: Meredith... Are you bothered by this?
Meredith: Why would I be bothered? You can't call it the Shepherd-Grey method, because then people would think you had help!

Meredith: [narrating] I am a rock. I am an island. That's the mantra of pretty much every surgeon I've ever met. We like to think we're independent, loners, mavericks. That all we need to do our jobs is an OR, a scalpel, and a willing body. But the truth is not even the best of us can do it alone. Surgery like life is a team sport. And eventually, you've got to get off the bench and decide... what team are you batting for?

Meredith: [narrating] We like to think we're fearless, eager to explore unknown lands and soak up new experiences, but the fact is, we're always terrified. Maybe the terror is part of the attraction. Some people go to horror movies. We cut things open. Dive into dark water. And at the end of the day, isn't that what you'd rather to hear about? If you've got one drink and one friend and 45 minutes. Slow rides make for boring stories. A little calamity. Now that's worth talking about.

Meredith: [narrating] In 6500 BC, some guy looked at his friend and said, let's drill a hole in your head... that will make you feel better. And thus surgery was born. It takes a certain brand of crazy to think of drilling into someone's skull, but surgeons have always been a confident bunch. We don't always know what we're doing, but we act like we do. We walk into a country, plant a flag and start ordering people around. It's invigorating and terrifying.

Derek: I was trying to find space for my clothes. Your closet is full.
Meredith: Oh.
