IZZIE: "So what's the sex like?"
MEREDITH: "I wouldn't know."
IZZIE: "Four dates and two sleepovers and no sex?"
MEREDITH: "Not even a kiss goodnight."
IZZIE: "Aww, I'm so proud. I am like a proud mama."
MEREDITH: "Shut up."

MEREDITH: "Hey..."
DEREK: "How's my dog?"
MEREDITH: "Much better. Finn is running tests-"
DEREK: "Good. Good."
MEREDITH: "Our dog."
DEREK: "What?"
MEREDITH: "Our dog. You said my dog. He's our dog."
DEREK: "Yeah, whatever."
MEREDITH: "Are you mad at me or something?"
DEREK: [walks away] "Now's not the time."

DEREK: "How the hell did you let a patient get that far from your watch?"
MEREDITH: "I turned my back for a second."
DEREK: "He was in the damn gallery!"
MEREDITH: "He's a surgical intern at Mercy West..."
DEREK: "I don't care if he's the Surgeon General. In this hospital he's patient with a head injury who needs a CT. In this hospital he's a scared guy who doesn't need to see the mass of internal injuries of the woman he ran into with his car! This is your fault! You had him and you lost him! You've got to take responsibility for your actions, for once in your life!" [walks away]
MEREDITH: "Derek!"

GEORGE: "So... I'll see you at home then?"
MEREDITH: [pauses, smiles] "Yeah."
GEORGE: "Okay."

[narrating] "We're all damaged, it seems. Some of us more than others. We carry the damage with us from childhood, then as grown-ups, we give as good as we get. Ultimately, we all do damage. And then, we set about the business of fixing whatever we can."

MEREDITH: "If you knew me... if you knew my family.. if I told you the guys that I've slept with lately... the scary and damaged may actually be more than you can handle."
FINN: "My mother's dead. She got cancer when I was 10 and suffered for a really long time and then she died. My father never recovered. It's kind of like he died with her, except that he's above ground and permanently placed in front of a TV with a bottle of scotch in his lap. The last woman I slept with was my wife, but she died too. It was a car crash so it was quick. She didn't suffer, which I appreciated. Don't worry, I'm thinking that my luck is beginning to change, because I met you. You like dogs, and you enjoy pony births, and have the ability to save lives. I never said I wasn't scary and damaged too."

FINN: "You're driving me crazy with the hovering.
MEREDITH: [sighs] "This could be a mistake. This. Us. You, you, you’re a really nice guy and well, you're, you don't want to get involved with me. If you knew me..."
FINN: "Scary."
MEREDITH: "Finn-"
FINN: "And damaged. See, I told you."

MEREDITH: "You don't get to call me a whore. When I met you, I thought I had found the person that I was going to spend the rest of my life with. I was done! All the boys and all the bars and all the obvious daddy issues, who cares? I was done. You left me. You chose Addison. I'm all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke. You don't get to call me a whore."
DEREK: "This thing with us is finished. It's over."
MEREDITH: "Finally."
DEREK: "Yeah, it's done."
MEREDITH: "It is done."

MEREDITH: "I never should have told you about George."
DEREK: "No, its fine. I'm glad I know about him, and the vet. You really get around."
MEREDITH: "What did you just say to me?"
DEREK: "It's unforgivable."
MEREDITH: "I don't remember ever asking you to forgive me."
DEREK: "So, was the knitting a phase? Who's next? Alex? I hear he likes to sleep around too. You two have that in common."

IZZIE: "What'd you say to him?"
MEREDITH: "Nothing, I fled the scene."
IZZIE: "You didn't tell him about George, or Derek?"
MEREDITH: "Nope."
IZZIE: "Hmm... you like him."
MEREDITH: [pauses] "I could like him."

MEREDITH: "I don't cook."
FINN: "Nobody asked you to cook."
MEREDITH: "I know. I'm just saying... you know, I don't cook. So you don't have to cook, I don't expect you to cook for me."
FINN: "Okay, look. You, sit there. I want you to drink this and try really hard to act like you aren't scary and damaged."
MEREDITH: "I'm not scary and damaged."
FINN: "Yeah, you are."
MEREDITH: "No, I'm not scary or damaged."
FINN: "Mmm hmm. Alright. Why don't you tell me about your family?"
MEREDITH: "Okay, me not wanting to talk about my family does not make me scary to damaged."
FINN: "Okay, tell me about the last guy you slept with."

[narrating] "We all go through life like bulls in a china shop. A chip here, a crack there. Doing damage to ourselves, to other people. The problem is trying to control the damage we've done, or thats been done to us. Sometimes the damage catches us by surprise. Sometimes we think we can fix the damage."
