Template:Infobox Episode

Derek and Meredith's clinical trial is a success as their very last patient pulls through, despite some rule bending to do so. Bailey hands the clinic over to Izzie, feeling she has too much on her plate, Cristina gets her mojo back in the form of the sparkle pager and Lexie makes a shocking discovery about George. Alex deals with Rebecca trying to kill herself, bringing up poignant memories for Meredith. Callie kisses Erica, the Chief returns to Adele and Derek and Meredith decide to get back together.


Full Summary

At Seattle Grace, Izzie - technically Ava's doctor as she admitted her - steps in and says that she will call the police if he tries to take her home, which he insists on doing. In a shocking confrontation, Alex calls Izzie a "stupid bitch" and tells her to stay out of his life.

George, the Chief's intern, lets Lexie know he could go into the chief's office anytime he wants, but doesn't have any real power. So she takes it upon herself to sneak in there and read through everyone's files!

Lexie learns that George failed his intern test by a single point. One! She relays this to him, along with info on all the other residents, but he is upset. George confronts Richard, asking for a second chance, and the Chief agrees, allowing O'Malley to take the test again.

Beth insists on going through with the surgery anyway despite the failure earlier in the day on her best friend and lover. They go through it and Meredith and Derek's final clinical trial is a success! She comes out of surgery pretty sedated, but her tumor is shrinking! Woo hoo!

Alex admits to Izzie - who stood up for herself and got Rebecca into the psychiatric care division at the hospital despite Alex's protests - that she did the right thing, even if he doesn't say so verbatim.

He tells Izzie that his mom suffered from mental illness and he had to take care of her. Alex says he wants Rebecca to get the help she needs and then totally breaks down, crying to Izzie in his time of need, kissing her and begging her to stay with him for one night.

Mark, turning over his new leaf, continues trying to help Callie find who she is, even though he's enjoyed hitting that. He knows she is consumed with thoughts of Erica, and doesn't want to stand in the way.

After their long day, Callie finally goes up and plants a kiss on Erica, at Mark's urging - and not in a dirty kind of Mark urging. Awesome scene.

Ecstatic that he's getting another shot, George runs in to their apartment, grabs Lexie and plants a kiss on her - one we get an impression means way more to Lexie than George as she's developing feelings for him.

Richard goes home to Adele and asks her to allow him to move back. She says it's about time and they embrace.

Derek returns to the land to find Meredith on the property, having laid out the plans for the house he wants to build in candles.

They share an unforgettable kiss but he stops, saying he must go end things with Rose to clear his conscience before he can come to her - and do A LOT MORE than just kiss her. Wow. He asks her to wait for him.

With that, he walks off, as Meredith stands in the house of candles, awash in light, hopefully having become the person she always wanted to be.
