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."

"You have to stand up for me, George."

CALLI

HUSBAND: "She's mad at you."
GEORGE: "Hi... I didn't know you were awake."
HUSBAND: "What'd you do?"
GEORGE: [pauses] "Has anyone talked to you about your wife? About whats happening?"
HUSBAND: "Whats happening. I can't really wrap my brain around whats happening. You know, I'm from here, and I go away to college and I come back married to this big-haired, drawling, southern girl. Everyone I know thinks I'm crazy, but I love her. I just love her. And whats happening is that my big-haired southern girl could be dying and I can't think about that. You know, I need to think about something else. Something that doesn't matter so much, something that doesn't have me burying my 22-year old wife and baby. So, so, what the hell did you do?"
GEORGE: "I believed my friend when she told me that Dr. Torres didn't wash her hands."
HUSBAND: "Well, I hope thats not true, seeing as she just performed surgery on me and all."
GEORGE: "Yeah."

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."
