DEREK: "Do you want me to be a better guy?"
MEREDITH: "Yes.... No. Crap! I'm late."
DEREK: "Take your time. Think about it."

DEREK: "Are we gonna talk about this?"
MEREDITH: "No."
DEREK: "About us and Bailey and what she saw."
MEREDITH: "I don't need to talk about it I experienced it... naked."
DEREK: "This is getting complicated."
MEREDITH: "Complicated for me. I'm the intern sleeping with the attending. Bailey isn't speaking to me anymore."

MEREDITH: [sees Derek] "Crap.
DEREK: "Crap?"
MEREDITH: "Hi! I'm late."

GEORGE: [about Mer] "She's gonna be late."
IZZIE: "Maybe not."
GEORGE: "We should wait for her."
IZZIE: "Definitely not. I'm not her mother and you are not her boyfriend... [smiles] ... not yet anyways."
GEORGE: "Stop, okay, I told you I'm not interested."
IZZIE: "Life is short. George. Do you really want to die before you ask her out."
GEORGE: "I do not want to ask her out."
IZZIE: "Do you really want to die a liar?"
GEORGE: "I’m not... dying."

GEORGE: [bringing Meredith coffee] "Ahh! Hot!"
IZZIE: "Wouldn't it be easier to just ask her out?"

[narrating] "A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. 'Never leave that 'til tomorrow,' he said, 'Which you could do today.' This is the man who discovered electricity. You’d think more of us would listen to what he had to say. I don’t know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I’d say it had a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure. Fear of pain. Fear of rejection. Sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you’re wrong. What if you make a mistake you can’t undo. Whatever it is we're afraid of, one thing holds true. That by the time the pain of not doing the thing gets worse than the fear of doing it. It can feel like we're carrying around a giant tumor. And you thought I was speaking metaphorically."
