Meredith: [voiceover] You know when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales? That fantasy of what your life would be – white dress, prince charming who’d carry you away to a castle on a hill. You’d lie in your bed at night and close your eyes and you had complete and utter faith. Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, prince charming –they were so close you could taste them. But eventually you grow up and one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. Most people turn to the things and people they can trust. But the thing is, it’s hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely because almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope and faith that one day they would open their eyes and it would all come true.


Derek: I'm a surgeon, I don't have any friends.

...

Meredith: [Wanting more details about Derek's life] I want facts, and until I get them, my pants are staying on.

Derek: Or you could just roll with it, be flexible. See what happens.

Meredith: I'm not flexible.

Derek': [laughs] Now there I disagree...We'll find these things out. That's the fun part, you know? That's the gravy.


Cristina: Dr. Bailey, I want off the psychic case, I'll take whatever you've got. Can I switch?

Bailey: Ask nicely.

Cristina: What— this is me doing nicely.


Mr. Duff:: You're into me. I can tell. Dr. Small and Angry was a hot appetizer, but you doc are a smorgasbord of lust.


George: How’s a pompous cocky jackass like you always have women all over him?

Alex: Little bluebell pills. Lots of them.

George: Oh c'mon.

Alex: Float like a butterfly sting like a bee. O'Malley, you think too much, can’t you see it? You gotta dance and jab, dance and jab! Like me. I am the Ali of this place.


Meredith: I tried to talk Dr Shepherd out of that clot surgery. What is wrong with me?

Alex: Basically, you tried to kill a guy.

Cristina: [to Alex] Basically, you're an ass.


George: [pointing to his hospital ID card] This is George, George has a hot date.


Meredith: Where are we?

Derek: Shh, shh, shh. I'm gonna tell you. All right. My mother's maiden name, Maloney. I have 4 sisters. I have, uh, 9 nieces. 5 nephews. I like coffee ice cream, single-malt scotch, occasionally a good cigar. I like to fly-fish. And I cheat when I do the crossword puzzle on Sunday. And I never dance in public. Um, favorite novel, The Sun Also Rises. Favorite band, The Clash. My favorite color is blue. I don't like light blue. Indigo. The scar right here on my forehead, that's why I don't ride motorcycles anymore. And I live in that trailer. All this land is mine. I have no idea what I'm gonna do with it. So that's it. That's all you've earned for now. The rest you're just...just gonna have to take on faith.


Meredith: [voiceover] At the end of the day faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. Its like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And its not so important, happy ever after, just that its happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you, and once in a while people may even take your breath away.
