P.S.
在雨天，在晚上，反反复复听着曾经在剧集里出现的那些歌。随着歌的旋律模模糊糊记得起那些情节，那些漂浮不定的情绪。

因为这部剧，记得Jem，记得Thirteen Senses，记得Snow Patrol，记得Keane，当然也会记得Meredith、Dereck、Cristina、Izzie这些人物。他们的哭与笑，快乐与悲伤，都在这些那些歌中。

　　我从来不是幽默的女生
　　不喜欢突然的一场雨
　　明知道你正伤心
　　却又默默离去
　　明知道下雨天的你
　　需要亲密的语气
　　说今天就快过去
　　雨会停　心将平静
　　我从来不是幽默的女生
　　只好为你淋雨
　　我从来不是幽默的女生
　　不适合这种情景
　　我从来不是幽默的女生
　　真不幸　坏了天气
　　　　　　　　　　　——陈珊妮《我从来不是幽默的女生》

寒假前因为好友Dean的推荐而开始看《Grey's Anatomy》，不紧不慢地看了一个寒假，倒也就这样追到了第三季。

可以说，在昨天之前——或者更确切点，在我和Pheobe聊完天后看了第三季第13集以前——《GA》里我最喜欢的女孩虽然不能确定是谁，但一定不会是Christina Yang。
曾经带着几分偏见地认为：怎么可能会有人喜欢上Christina Yang这样的女孩呢？她不美丽、不温柔、固执、冷漠、而且还有着带几分功利的进取心。看着她每天一大早来到医院只为抢到好的病人，看着她想尽一切方法就为能上手术台，看着她不修边幅一心工作，觉得这个女孩除了优秀，似乎再也找不到一点讨人喜欢的地方了。
甚至，就连她与主治医生Burke的相恋，也让我觉得这只是她想要获得手术机会的一个手段而已。

到了第二季，一位身体中有炸弹的病人使整个医院都陷入了恐慌，Geroge和Izzie转移到了医院的另外一栋楼，而Christina和Grey却都留在病人所在的楼层。当时，Geroge和Izzie坐在墙角谈论着正陷入危险的那两位朋友，Izzie评论她们说：“因为她们都是行动派，而我们却大多时候在旁观。”
Christina的勇气让我对她有了改观。无论她留下的原因究竟是担心Burke，还是仅仅想要获得一个难得的手术机会，但她的确是一个毫无疑问的行动派。当医院出现身体释放不明毒气的女病人时，Sloan医生拒绝进入手术室处理病人，而Christina却立刻举起手对主任说：“我可以在游泳池不呼吸游三个来回。”于是渐渐觉得，这样一个有着几分傻气的行动派，似乎也不至于那么让人厌恶吧。

直到Burke意外中弹，Christina却退缩时，我才终于发现，这个女孩并不像自己表现的那样坚强。原来，这个优秀得近乎冷酷的女孩，也终究会有软弱的一面。而这样的软弱，竟让我对她有了莫名的好感。
Christina的确不是一个善于讨人喜欢的女孩，她与Burke斗气时小孩子般互不相让，她对Burke的母亲骄傲地报出自己的学历，她为了好的手术机会不顾一切……那样一个优秀且骄傲的女孩，却也会逃跑般离开Burke的手术台，也会在听到Burke说“marry me”时忍不住激动流泪。觉得这样的她，才是在那个躲在为了保护自己而假装坚强冷漠的外壳里的那个真实可爱的Christina Yang。

记得在女性文学课上，老师曾经谈到过文学作品中的女性形象：在大多数文学作品中，女性形象被简单地分成了两类——美丽温柔的天使形象与丑陋邪恶的恶魔形象。
在这种分类的无形影响下，女孩们从小就被教导着要做天使。她们会收到芭比娃娃、毛绒熊之类的礼物，然后每天自言自语般地在教导自己娃娃的同时也教导自己，说：要乖、要微笑、要顺从……

在我还足够年轻、可以拿年龄作为炫耀的资本的时候，很喜欢《小王子》中的小狐狸，并因为小王子最终的选择而感到伤心。可之后才渐渐明白，其实小玫瑰这样的女孩注定了比较容易得到幸福。
作者总是很喜欢通过文学作品来说话，而《小王子》的结局，是否可以理解为圣艾修伯里想要对女孩们说：聪明的女孩只适合做知己，而能陪伴一生的女孩不用太有思想，能够笑容甜美、用细软的声音说话就好。
也许正是这样，他才会选择文章中小玫瑰的原型——那个因为《小王子》没有献给自己而任性出走的康素罗。

那么多的故事，那么多的王子最后爱上的都是公主，而那么多的公主无一不是温柔美丽的。
也许，温柔美丽就足够了吧，麻烦到隔着十多层羽绒垫也容不下床上的一颗豌豆也完全没有关系，傻到除了等待王子的吻来拯救自己外什么都不会做也根本不是问题——温柔、美丽，这就是与王子过上幸福生活的资格。
印象中唯一一个能称得上拥有智慧的公主图兰朵，也只是被人们定义成为了一个因为有着阴暗的童年从而仇恨男人、报复社会的心理畸形的小姑娘而已。更不厚道的是，作者还要落井下石地给她安排了一个悲惨的结局，似乎是在坏笑着告诉那些蠢蠢欲动的女孩们，除了温良恭俭让之外，其他一切的优秀形容词都是为男人造的，想要把它们放在女人身上是要不得的。
难怪伍尔夫会感叹：“有谁能计算得出，一个诗人的灵魂被禁锢在女人的身体里时，会有多大的悲愤。”

可是，现实中的女孩实在无法被如此简单而不负责任地分成天使和恶魔两大阵营。就像Chritina Yang这样的女孩，虽然算不上恶魔，但也实在做不了天使。
即使明知道小玫瑰比较容易得到幸福，但毕竟不是每个女孩都做得了小玫瑰。
有些女孩，她们不知道怎么给人安慰，学不会如何讨人欢心，不甘心做别人光芒背后面容模糊的小女人，更演不来那些山盟海誓、缠绵悱恻的爱情肥皂剧……于是，有时候也会忍不住想，这些偏执倔强的女生们，还真是挺让人扫兴的吧。

好在看到Christina Yang的身边有了愿意将心放在她手上的Preston Burke，不然这些女孩，是不是该手拉手站出来向这个世界鞠躬道歉，说：“真不幸，坏了天气。”

      Denny出场时躺在病床上，眼睛始终跟随着Izzie，他脸上所展开的笑容一下子抓住了我：舒展，明亮，由衷，和他温柔的眼睛辉映着，很直接的传递着爱意，毫不掩饰。看着这样一张脸孔，我想任何女人的心都会荡漾着暖意的。
      一个受着病痛折磨的人，却一直保持着宽厚明朗的笑容，比任何健康强壮的人更豁达。看着Denny，我有一种很强烈的感觉：生活是如此的动人。我想不起Izzie是怎样爱上他的，可能就是这样一分分一寸寸的潜移默化了。
      记忆中很揪心的一幕，是Denny第二次入院，因为病情恶化需要在清醒状态中电击来帮助恢复心脏功能。他在电击时痛苦得大喊，然后对医生说：我讨厌你，你让我像孩子一样大声喊叫，还是在我想取悦的女孩面前。Izzie紧张担心的脸上一瞬间露出笑容——在自己遭受痛苦的时候还不忘发挥的可爱的幽默感，来安慰所爱的女人。这样一个男人，足够照亮一个女人的心。
      Izzie努力的劝说Denny接受安装心脏辅助装置的手术，来争取更多等待移植的时间--看到这一部分的时候，其实我心里十分矛盾纠结。我希望他们能最终成为彼此的补偿，哪怕是多一分钟也好，不要留下遗憾。可又知道这样的努力在给Denny的身体带来多一次的痛苦。虽然Denny的脸上也开始露出疲惫失望，但他还是对着Izzie笑着，在她的鼓励下再试一次，再试一次……哪怕明知这是渺茫的希望。有时候我在想，Izzie的爱是不是有些自私，可这又怎么来界定呢，百分之一的美好未来要用百分之九十九的痛苦来博取，是为了自己，也是为了对方，只有相爱的人才能这么去做吧。
      Denny终于从病床上站了起来，他们有了第一个拥抱。Izzie含泪微笑，说，你很高。
      为了争取到心脏移植的优先权，Izzie不惜触犯法规，切断Denny心脏装置的电源线来恶化他的病情。这情到深处的铤而走陷遭到Denny的反对，他温柔的注视着这个为爱疯狂的女孩，希望她能让他安静的离开。可这是一个不愿向命运服输的女孩，而Denny又是一个深情包容的男人。最终在她失控的喊着“求求你，求求你，就当是为了我”的眼泪中，他抱住她，说了“好”。
      术后醒来的Denny重复了进手术室前的求婚，在得到Izzie“Yes”的回答后，他对身旁的Bailey医生说：我哄她嫁给我了，我聪明吧。
      我们都以为新的生活就此展开了，可在Izzie挑选了三条礼服，终于穿着最漂亮的紫红色裙子来到Denny面前时，他的心跳却已经停止了。不久以前他刚让她感受过温热的手，他们刚刚不可思议的订下婚约……突然这一切都像从没发生过一样了。
      我有些不敢相信爱情故事就这样结束了。其实在这样一部美剧中，其他每个爱情都无外乎是相识，触电，默契，一点点情绪作用，然后是性……并不是说不真挚，只是很速成。而Denny和Izzie的情感在这样的环境中，就显得格外不同了：不同与常理，简直就像不是站在现实中的。所以才有了Izzie和同伴关于自己是否了解Denny的争论。她不清楚他的工作，他的家人，他的朋友，他生活得方式……她只看到他作为病人，住在医院的一面，从这些方面来说，她是不了解他。但了解并不会催生爱情，我很愿意相信这样无关于一切，只关乎两人之间单纯的感觉的爱情，这的确是很不实际，更可能是很戏剧的。但我相信，人的心底都是有抛开一切世俗去爱的能力的，只是有没有遇到那个能点燃你的人。
      Denny肯定是这样的人。
      在我的心里，他几乎等同于最明亮的笑容。

Derek拿着离婚协议书犹豫再三的时候，我是欣赏这个男人的。即使我知道在第四季还是第五季的时候他就会和Meredith结婚。

一起生活了十几年的人，哪个人可以轻易的将她赶出自己的生活。
一起过的十几个生日，圣诞，结婚纪念日，还有一系列的其他。
抹去这些需要一点犹豫和不舍，一点也不过分。
这个决定和他的太太是不是那个曾经和他好朋友睡过的女人无关，舍不得的是时间。

Meredith是个好女孩。她大声对Derek说：choose me的时候，没有人会说她任性的。因为她无辜而又美好，甚至很难算一个小三。

Derek最最后面的选择是肯定的，Meredith才是女主角。
只是要一点时间和波折。

Derek坐在椅子上一脸痛苦。
Baily路过说:你知道做这个选择其实一点也不难，but painful
Bailey也是个聪明的一塌糊涂的胖女人啊。

花了很長時間看Grey's Anatomy,之後又花了很長時間努力不去思考。醫療題材的片子很容易出彩，也很容易讓人覺得厭倦，《白色巨塔》走的是反面對比路綫，因果輪回報應不爽，配一首宗教歌曲就讓人落淚。相比之下，美國人喜歡沒事就說說人生，其實這樣挺好的，人生就需要一些淺薄又積極的探討。把人生歸結成一種美國式的黑色幽默之後又刻意壓低到扭曲零碎的生活瑣事中去，好像只有這樣，編造出來的理論才能夠得到圓滿。這一原則的另一個結局就是做出來的東西特別真實，有時候簡直是太他媽真實了。

大多數的矛盾只有三种原因，對於當下自我體認的不滿，對於當下他人對自我映射的不滿，然後導致了對過去未來的人生的焦慮。毉患關係的矛盾是人本身的矛盾，一方面對自己無法掌握自己生命的結局感到絕望，另一方面因爲了解前者的絕望，所以難以自我安慰。不知道自己要什麽；想知道自己要什麽；有時候以爲知道了自己要什麽；有時候只知道自己不要什麽。長得一臉韓國式plain的Christina是所有人的榜樣，在她一臉理所當然的道德感薄弱之下。最情比金堅是 Christina對Meredith：“緊急聯絡人我填了你的名字。”最無可奈何是Bruke對Christina：“我們算是一對了，這沒什麽大不了的。”最望塵莫及是Izzie對Christina：“我不是妒嫉她的選擇，我只是妒嫉她這麽堅定這麽純粹。”

如同我們所猜想的，醫生對於自己的人生，比常人有更多的不認同感。這就好像法官對於公平正義，老師對於教學相長，國家領導人對於國家本身的定義一樣。《無人生還》裏的法官，到最後都得意于自己病態的舉證方式：但是説到底，這是死循環。

2

很多人不能認同Meredith，有可能是對美劇中瓊瑤戯份的厭惡。要是都像越獄那樣，每集都刺激刺激刺激每秒鐘，就回到了好萊塢動作片的老路上。你還記得ABC是怎樣在好萊塢疲軟的時候殺進的麽？因爲人們關心的是内歷時的人物命運：Meredith在Seattle Grace的第一年，第二年……20個人中只有6個女人，而在這20個人之中，有5個將在壓力下崩潰，有2個會要求離開。George要重復實習，Alex留起了鬍子，Mark戯份加重，連男主角也對第三季的劇本表示了不滿，如果第四季還這麽混亂的話，他就要甩手不干了。接下來的事情你們都知道了：演O'mally的演員坦誠自己是同性戀，Addison功成名就spin off，Burke無法解決内部矛盾……然後，然後編劇罷工開始了。

回過頭來想一想，Meredith的塑造是成功的。她優秀得不露聲色，因此不同于典型亞裔美國人那種強迫式的自我要求，同時又有美國女人的優點：寬容和理解（至少看起來是這樣）。決絕?不，生活裏不流行決絕。關心？關心他人的生活，而不是内心。無論如何，劇本是用事件而不是獨白編織的，如果讓觀衆過多地看出編劇們表達的用心，毫無疑問是一種失敗——人物本身會有自己的發展，但是觀衆又非得要求緊張激烈的情節，稀奇古怪的病例，這確實是一種對於編劇能力的考驗。在Meredith瀕死的時候，各種綫索匯聚到一起，以四個人的方式把三季中重要事件和代表意義呈現出來，其中的一些綫索結束了，比如代表着 Meredith母親的護士隨著她母親的死去也消失了，但是另一些沒有，代表着主角感情選擇的Bonnie未來肯定還會出現。被炸成脆片的爆破組組長也許代表Meredith的勇氣，但是這種無所不能的勇氣，正如Meredith所說，會“fade away”，還有人氣最高的Denny和Izzie兩肩相觸的刹那，靈犀一點天人永隔：所有美好的東西最終都會消失，如果不能move on，你就只能困在原地。

是的，我們得承認人心脆弱。因爲害怕受傷害，太容易對珍惜的東西失去信心。像Christina那種受亞洲同胞們讚賞的堅強，其實是更深的自傷。如果真的完全不相信愛，怎樣完好地活在人間？

考文雕的時候滿腦子都是Meredith的金髮和抿成直綫的嘴。我一直覺得很層次的金髮很好看，但是一不小心，就會面如土色。我能理解美國精神是缺乏武俠小説熏陶的，她和他們都不知道什麽是“醉笑陪君叁萬場，不訴離傷。”

在列文的莊園，一男一女相遇了，兩個孤獨的，憂鬱的人。他們相互閒有好感，暗中希望能將兩人的生活結合到一起。他們只等着能單獨在一起的機會，以互相表白。有一天他們終于在沒有第三者的情況下同処一個小樹林。他們在那裏采蘑菇。兩人内心激動，一言不發，知道時機來了，不要讓它溜走。當時他們已經靜默了很久，女人突然開始說起蘑菇來了。這完全是“違背她意願的，意想不到的”。隨後，又是一陣靜默，男人掂量着字眼想表白，可是他沒有談愛情，“出於一種意想不到的衝動”，他也跟她談起蘑菇來。
在回家的路上，他們還在談着蘑菇，一點辦法也沒有，心中充滿了絕望，因爲他們知道，他們永遠都不會談到愛情了。

以上這個例子是昆德拉舉出來證明人類的行動怎樣超越出因果關係的可解釋範圍。事實上，這似乎是人類藝術的一個最大的突破口：科學證明那些可重復的事件，藝術則在不可重復的神秘性上佔有優勢。亞裏士多德認爲詩歌比歷史更真實，就是這個道理。從這個方面來説，編劇罷工最終會贏得勝利，因爲他們手中掌握着美國社會的“真實”，而這種真實性總是被需要的。

Meredith夢到自己拉開冰櫃，看到死掉的自己開口説話。死亡是涼爽的夜晚，自己的掙扎卻很徒勞。這是再真實不過的想法，誰也沒有立場說誰淺薄。對於那些認爲Grey's Anatomy刻意拉長劇情慘失人氣的，有些確實可觀，對於那些認爲主角形象塑造失敗的，則可能道德感過於強烈誘失中立了。有時候我們笑貧不笑娼。

The best of this soap opera is voiceover in each episode. It intrigues me to scribble down every sentence of voiceover when watching it. It is food for thought. I like this way to say something about life, love, friend, job, responsibility, loneliness and so on in this series. It make me contemplating what has happened in my life.

Attached is what I record, share with "同好":

Season1

Episode 1: A hard Day’s night

The game. They say either a person has what it takes to play, or they don't.
There comes a moment when it's more than just a game. And you either take that step forward, or turn around and walk away.

E5: “shake your groove thing”

Remember when you were a kid and your biggest worry was, like, if you'd get a bike for your birthday, or if you get to eat cookies for breakfast. Being an adult? Totally overrated. I mean, seriously, don't be fooled by all the hot shoes and the great sex and the no parents anywhere telling you to do. Adulthood is responsibility. Responsibility, it really does suck. Really, really sucks. Adults have to be places and do things and earn a living and pay the rent. Kinda makes bikes and cookies look really really good, doesn't it?

The scariest part about responsibility: when you screw up and let it slip right through your fingers.
Unfortunately, once you get past the age of braces and training bras, responsibility doesn't go away.
It can't be avoided. Either someone makes us face it, or we suffer the consequences. And still, adulthood has its perks.

E6 “ If tomorrow never comes”

A couple hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. "Never leave that till tomorrow," he said, "which you can 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 has 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're making 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 a 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.

The early bird catches the worm. A stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we haven't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still, sometime we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering. That waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst, most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying.

E07 “ The self destruct button”

I mean, if life's so hard already, why do we bring more trouble down on ourselves? What's up with the need to hit the self-destruct button? Maybe we like the pain. Maybe we're wired that way. Because without it, I don't know... ...maybe we just wouldn't feel real. What's that saying? "Why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer?" "Because it feels so good when I stop."

E08 “Save me”

You know how when you were a 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 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. 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. Cause almost everyone still has that smallest bit of hope, of faith, that one day they'll open their eyes and it will all come true.

E09 “who’s zooming who”

Secrets can't hide in science. Medicine has a way of exposing the lies. Within the walls of the hospital, the truth is stripped bare. How we keep our secrets outside the hospital...Well, that's a little different. One thing is certain. Whatever it is we're trying to hide, we're never ready for that moment when the truth gets naked. That's the problem with secrets. Like misery, they love company. They pile up and up until they take over everything. Until you don't have room for anything else. Until you're so full of secrets, you feel like you're going to burst.

The thing people forget is how good it can feel when you finally set secrets free.Whether good or bad, at least they're out in the open, like it or not. And once your secrets are out in the open, you don't have to hide behind them anymore. The problem with secrets is even when you think you're in control... ...you're not.

Season 2

E1 “Raindrops keep falling on my head”

To be a good surgeon, you have to think like a surgeon. Emotions are messy. Tuck them neatly away and step into a clean, sterile room where the procedure is simple. Cut, suture and close. But sometimes, you're faced with a cut that won't heal. A cut that rips it's stitches wide open.

The say practice makes perfect. Theory is, the more you think like a surgeon, the more you become one. The better you get at remaining neutral, clinical. Cut, suture, close. And the harder it becomes to turn it off? to stop thinking like a surgeon. And remember what it means to think like a human being.

E2 “Enough is enough (no more tears)”

I have an aunt who, whenever she poured anything for you, would say, "Say when." My aunt would say, "Say when," and of course we never did. We don't say "when" because there's something about the possibility of more. More tequila. More love. More anything. More is better.

There's something to be said about a glass half full. About knowing when to say when. I think it's a floating line. A barometer of need and desire. It's entirely up to the individual. And depends on what's being poured. Sometimes all we want is a taste. Other times, there's no such thing as enough. The glass is bottomless. And all we want is more.

E3 “Make me lose control”

Surgeons are control freaks. With a scalpel in your hand, you feel unstoppable. There's no fear, there's no pain. You're 10 feet tall and bullet proof. And then you leave the O.R. And all that perfection. All that beautiful control just falls to crap.

No one likes to lose control but as a surgeon there's nothing worse. It's a sign of weakness. Of not being up to the task. And still there are times when it just gets away from you. When the world stops spinning. And you realize that your shiny little scalpel isn't gonna save you. No matter how hard you fight it. You fall. And its scary as hell. Except there's an upside to free falling. It's the chance you give your friends to catch you.

E4” deny, deny, deny”

The key to surviving a surgical internship is denial. We deny that we're tired, we deny that we're scared, we deny how badly we want to succeed, and most importantly, we deny that we're in denial. We only see what we wanna see and believe what we want to believe. And it works. We lie to ourselves so much that after a while, the lies start to seem like the truth. We deny so much that we can't recognize the truth, right in front of our faces.

Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the damn bursts all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired. We are scared. Denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later, we have to put aside our denial ... and face the world head on gun's blazing. Denial. It's not just a river in Egypt. It's a freaking ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?

E5 “Bring the pain”

Pain comes in all forms. The small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain. The normal pains we live with every day. Then there's the kind of pain you can't ignore. A level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else. Makes the rest of the world fade away. Until all we can think about is how much we hurt. How we manage our pain is up to us. Pain. We anaesthetize...ride it out, embrace it, ignore it... And for some of us, the best way to manage pain is to just push through it.

Pain. You just have to ride it out. Hope it goes away on its own. Hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions. No easy answers. You just breathe deep and wait for it to subside. Most of the time pain can be managed. But sometimes, the pain gets to you when you least expect it. Hit's way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain. You just have to fight through because the truth is you can't out run it. And life always make more.

E6 “Into you like a Train”

In general... people can be categorized in one of two ways. Those who love surprises, and those who don't. I don't. I've never met a surgeon that enjoys a surprise, because, as surgeons we like to be in the know. We have to be in the know. Because when we aren't, people die and lawsuits happen. Am I rambling? I think I'm rambling. Ok, so my point actually ... and I do have one. Has nothing to do with surprises or death or lawsuits or even surgeons. My point is this: whoever said what you don't know can't hurt you was a complete and total moron. Because for most people I know, not knowing is the worst feeling in the world.

As surgeons, there are so many things we have to know. We have to know we have what it takes. We have to know how to take care of our patients. And how to take care of each other. Eventually we even have to figure out... how to take care of ourselves. As surgeons we have to be in the know. But as human beings, sometimes it's better to stay in the dark. Because in the dark, there maybe fear... ... but there's also hope.


E8 “Let it Be”

In the 8th grade, my English class had to read Romeo & Juliet. Then for extra credit, Mrs. Snyder made us act out all the parts. Sal Scafarillo was Romeo. As fate would have it, I was Juliet. All the other girls were jealous but I had a slightly different take. I told Mrs. Snyder that Juliet was an idiot. For starters, she falls for the one guy she knows she can't have. Then she blames fate for her own bad decision. Mrs. Snyder explained to me that when fate comes into play, choice sometimes goes out the window. At the ripe old age of 13, I was very clear. That love like life is about making choices. And fate has nothing to do with it. Everyone thinks it's so romantic. Romeo & Juliet. True love. How sad. If Juliet was stupid enough to fall for the enemy, drink a bottle of poison and go to sleep in a mausoleum ... ... she deserved whatever she got.

Maybe Romeo & Juliet were fated to be together, but just for a while. And then their time passed. If they could've known that beforehand maybe it would've all been ok. I told Mrs. Snyder that when I was growing up I'd take fate into my own hands. I wouldn't let some guy drag me down. Mrs. Snyder said that I'd be lucky if I ever had that kind of passion with someone. And that if I did, we'd be together forever. Even now I believe for the most part love is about choices. It's about putting down the poison and the dagger and making your own happy ending ... most of the time. And that sometimes despite all your best choices and all your best intentions, fate wins anyway.

E09: “Thanks for the memories”

Gratitude, appreciation, giving thanks. No matter what words you use, it all means the same thing. Happy. We're supposed to be happy. Grateful for friends, family, happy just to be alive... Whether we like it or not.

Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful is recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciate small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing ... ... is reason enough to celebrate.

E10 “Much too much”

When you were a kid, it was Halloween candy. You hid it from your parents and ate it until you got sick. In college it was the heady combo of youth, tequila and well you know... As a surgeon you take as much of the good as you can get... because it doesn't come around nearly as often as it should. Cause good things aren't always what they seem. Too much of anything, even love is not always a good thing.

How do you know how much is too much? Too much, too soon. Too much information. Too much fun. Too much love. Too much to ask. And when is it all just too much to bear?

E11 “Owner of a lonely heart”

Forty years ago, The Beatles asked the world a simple question. They wanted to know where all the lonely people came from. My latest theory is that a great many of the lonely people come from hospitals. More precisely the surgical wings of hospitals. As surgeons we ignore our own needs so we can meet our patients' needs. We ignore our friends and families so we can save other people's friends and families. Which means that at the end of the day all we really have is ourselves. And nothing in this world can make you feel more alone than that.

400 years ago another well known English guy had an opinion about being alone. John Donne. He thought we were never alone. Of course it was fancier when he said it. No man is an island entire unto himself. Boil down that island talk and he just meant that all anyone needs is someone to step in. And let us know we're not alone. And who's to say that someone can't have 4 legs. Someone to play with or run around with. Or just hang out.

E12 “Grandma got run over by a reindeer”

It's an urban myth that suicide rates spike at the holidays. Turns out, they actually go down. Experts think that people are less inclined to off themselves when surrounded by family. Ironically, that same family togetherness is thought to be the reason depression rates actually do spike at the holidays.

There's an old proverb that says you can't choose your family. You take what the fates hand you... ...and like them or not, love them or not, understand them or not ... ...you cope. Then there's the school of thought that says the family you're born into is simply a starting point. They feed you and clothe you and take care of you until your ready to go out into the world. ...and find your tribe.

E13 “Begin the begin”

Fresh starts. Thanks to the calendar, they happen every year. Just set your watch to January. Our reward for surviving the holiday season is a new year. Bringing on the great tradition of New Year's resolutions. Put your past behind you and start over. It's hard to resist the chance at a new beginning. A chance to put the problems of last year to bed.

Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? It's not a day on a calendar. Not a birthday, not a new year. It's an event, big or small, something that changes us. Ideally it gives us hope. A new way of living and looking at the world. Letting go of old habits, old memories. What's important is that we never stop believing, we can have a new beginning. But it's also important to remember that amid all the crap are a few things really worth holding on to.

E14 “Tell me sweet little lies”

As doctors we're trained to skeptical because our patients lie to us all the time. The rule is: every patient is a liar until proven honest. Lying is bad. Or so we're told. Constantly, from birth. Honesty is the best policy. The truth shall set you free. I chop down the cherry tree. Whatever. The fact is, lying is a necessity. We lie to ourselves because the truth, the truth freaking hurts.

No matter how hard we try to ignore it or deny it. Eventually the lies fall away. Whether we like it or not. But here's the truth about the truth. It hurts. So we lie.


E16: “It’s the end of the world”

It's a look patients get in their eyes. There is a scent. The smell of death. Some kind of sixth sense. When the great beyond is headed for you, you feel it coming. What's the one thing you've always dreamed of doing before you die?

E17 “As we know it”

In hospitals they say you know. You know when you're going to die. Some doctors say it's a look patients get in their eyes. Some say there's a scent. The smell of death. Something. There's just some kind of sixth sense. When the great beyond is heading for you. You feel it coming. Whatever it is. It's creepy. Because if you know. What do you do about? Forget about the fact you're scared out of your mind. If you knew this was your last day on Earth, how would you want to spend it?

(现在似乎流行这样的假设，在北美大学，流行”last lecture”)

E18 “Yesterday”

After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here's what I've decided. There's no such thing as a grown up. We move on, we move out, we move away from our families and form our own. But the basic insecurities, the basic fears and all those old wounds just grow up with us. And just when we think that life and circumstance have forced us to truly, once and for all become an adult ... We get bigger, we get taller, we get older. But for the most part, we're still a bunch of kids. Running around the playground trying desperately to fit in.

We whisper secrets with our best friends in the dark. We look for comfort where we can find it. And we hope. Against all logic. Against all experience. Like children, we never give up hope.

E19 “ What have I done to deserve this”

Ok so sometimes even the best of us make rash decisions. Bad decisions. Decisions we pretty much know we're gonna regret the moment, the minute, especially the morning after. I mean maybe not regret, regret because at least you know we put ourselves out there. But still ... something inside us decides to do a crazy thing. A thing we know that'll probably turn around and bite us in the ass. Yet, we do it anyway.

What I'm saying is ... we reap what we sow. What comes around goes around. It's karma and any way you slice it ... ... karma sucks. Like I was saying ... ... payback's a bitch.

One way or another, our karma, will leave us to face ourselves. We can look our karma in the eye or we can wait for it to sneak up on us from behind. One way or another, our karma will always find us. And the truth is as surgeons we have more chances than most to set the balance in our favor. No matter how hard we try, we can't escape our karma. It follows us home. I guess we can't really complain about karma. It's not unfair. It's not unexpected. It just ... evens the score. And even when we're about to do something we know will tempt karma to bite us in the ass ... ... well it goes without saying ... ...we do it anyway.

E20 “ Band Aid covers the bullet hole”

As doctors patients are always telling us how they would do our jobs. Just stitch me up, slap a band-aid on it and send me home. It's easy to suggest a quick solution when you don't know much about the problem. When you don't understand the underlying cause ... ... or just how deep the wound really is. The first step towards a real cure is to know exactly what the disease is to begin with. But that's not what people want to hear. We're supposed to forget the past that landed us here, ignore the future complications that might arise and go for the quick fix.

As doctors, as friends, as human beings we all try to do the best we can. But the world is full of unexpected twists and turns. And just when you've gotten the lay of the land, the ground underneath you, shifts. And knocks you off your feet. If you're lucky, you end up with nothing more than a flesh wound. Something a band-aid will cover. But some wounds are deeper than they first appear and require more than just a quick fix. With some wounds, you have to rip off the band-aid, let them breathe and give them time to heal.

E21 “Superstition”

My college campus has a magic statue. It's a long-standing tradition for students to rub it's nose for good luck. My freshman roommate really believed in the statue's power... ...and insisted on visiting it to rub it's nose before every exam. Studying might have been a better idea. She flunked out her sophomore year. But the fact is we all have little superstitious things that we do. If it's not believing in magic statues, it's avoiding sidewalk cracks, or always putting out left shoe on first. Knock on wood. Step on a crack, break your mother's back. The last thing we want to do is offend the gods.

Superstition lies in the space between what we can control... and what we can't. Find a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have good luck. No one wants to pass up a chance for good luck. But does saying it 33 times really help? Is anyone really listening? And if no one's listening, why do we bother doing those strange things at all? We rely on superstitions because we're smart enough to know we don't have all the answers. And that life works in mysterious ways. Don't diss the juju...from wherever it comes.

E22 “ The name of the game”

A good basketball game can have us all on the edge of our seats. Games are all about the glory, the pain and the play-by-play. And then there are the more solitary games. The games we each play all by ourselves. The social games, the mind games, we use them to pass the time. To make life more interesting. To distract us from what's really going on. There are those of us who love to play games. Any game. And there are those of us who love to play...a little too much.

Life is not a spectator sport. Win, lose or draw...the game is in progress...whether we want it to be or not. So go ahead: argue with the refs, change the rules...cheat a little...take a break...and tend to your wounds. But play. Play hard. Play fast. Play loose and free. Play as if there's no tomorrow. Ok, so it's not whether you win or lose...it's how you play the game. Right?

E23 “Blues for sister someone”

The key to being a successful intern is what we give up. Sleep, friends, a normal life. We sacrifice it all for that one amazing moment. That moment when you can legally call yourself a surgeon. There are days that make the sacrifices seem worthwhile. And then there are the days where everything feels like a sacrifice. And then there are the sacrifices that you can't even figure out why you're making.

A wise man once said, "You can have anything in life, if you will sacrifice everything else for it." What he meant is, nothing comes without a price. So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you're willing to lose. Too often, going after what feels good, means letting go of what you know is right. And letting someone in means abandoning the walls you've spent a lifetime building. Of course the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming. When we don't have time to come up with a strategy, to pick a side or measure the potential loss. When that happens, when the battle chooses us, and not the other way around, that's when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear.

E24 “Damage Case”

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 figure out how to control the damage we have done. Or that's been done to us. Sometimes the damage catches us by surprise. Sometimes we think we can fix the damage. And sometimes the damage is something we can't even see.

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.

E25 “17 seconds”

In life, we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. We all know the big ones: Gluttony, pride, lust. But the sin you don't hear much about is anger. Maybe it's because we think anger's not that dangerous. That we can control it. My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all, when it comes to destructive behavior... ...it did make the top seven.

So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really. You give in to a sin like envy or pride then you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself, and probably one or two others. But anger...anger is the worst. The mother of all sins. Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does, you can take an awful lot of other people with you.

E26 “Deterioration of the fight or flight response”

Human beings need a lot of things to feel alive. We can't control it.

Season 3

E01 “Time has come today”

In the OR, time loses all meaning. In the midst of sutures and saving lives, the clock ceases to matter. 15 minutes. 15 hours. Inside the OR, the best surgeons make time fly. Outside the OR however, time takes pleasure in kicking our asses. For even the strongest of us, it seems to play tricks. Slowing down, hovering....until it freezes, leaving us stuck in a moment, unable to move in one direction or the other.

Time flies Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us wants is more time Time to stand up... time to grow up. Time to let go.

E02 “I am a tree”

At any moment, the brain has 14 billion neurons firing at a speed of 450 miles per hour. We don't have control over most of them. When we get a chill, goosebumps. When we get excited, adrenaline. The body naturally follows it's impulses, which I think is part of what makes it so hard for us to control ours. Of course, sometimes we have impulses we'd rather not control. That we later wish we had.

The body is a slave to its impulses. But the thing that makes us human... Is what we can control. after the storm. After the rush. After the heat of the moment has passed. We can cool off and clean up the messes we've made. We can try to let go of what was. And then again...

E03 “Sometimes a fantasy”

Surgeons usually fantasize about wild and improbable surgeries. Someone collapses in a restaurant; we splice them open with a butter knife. Replace a valve with a hollowed-out stick of carrot. But every now and then, some other kind of fantasy slips in. Most of our fantasies dissolve when we wake. Banished to the back of our mind. But sometimes we're sure, if we try hard enough, we can live the dream.

The fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good. And twice as much pleasure is better. That pain is bad. And no pain is better. But the reality is different. The reality is that pain is there to tell us something. And there's only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomach ache. And maybe that's OK. Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreams.

E04 “What I am”

At some point during surgical residency, most interns get a sense of who they are as doctors, and the kind of surgeons they're going to become If you ask them they'll tell you. They're going to be General surgeons. Orthopedic surgeons. Neurosurgeons. Distinctions that do more than describe their areas of expertise. They help define who they are. Because Outside the operating room, not only do most surgeons have no clue who they are, they're afraid to find out.

E05 “Oh, the guilt”

First, do no harm. As doctors we pledge to live by this oath. But harm happens. Then guilt happens, and there's no oath for how to deal with that.

First, do no harm. Easier said than done. We can take all the oaths in the world but the fact is... most of us do harm all the time.

Sometimes even when we're trying to help, we do more harm than good. And then the guilt rears its ugly head. What you do with that guilt is entirely up to you. We're left with a choice... Either you can let guilt thrown you back into the behavior that got you in trouble in the first place, or learn from the guilt, and do your best to move on.

E06 “Let the angels commit”

To make it... really make it as a surgeon, it takes major commitment. We have to be willing to pick up that scalpel that may or may not do more damage than good. It's all about being committed. Cause if we're not, we have no business picking up that scalpel in the first place.

There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment, and we may be surprised at the commitments we're willing to let slip out of our grasp. Commitments are complicated. We may surprise ourselves by the commitments we're willing to make. True commitment, takes effort, and sacrifice. Which is why sometimes, we have to learn the hard way, to choose our commitments very carefully.

E07 “Where the boys are”

As surgeons we're trained to look for disease. Sometimes, the disease is easily detected. Most of the time, we need to go step by step. First, probing the surface, looking for any sign of trouble. A mole or a lesion, or an unwelcome lump. Most of the time, we can't tell what's wrong with somebody just by looking at them. After all, they can look perfectly fine on the outside, while their insides tell us a whole different story.

Not all wounds are superficial. Most wounds run deeper than imagined. You can't see them with the naked eye. And then there are the wounds that take us by surprise. The trick to any wound or disease is to dig down deep and find the real source of the injury. And once you've found it... try like hell to heal that sucker.

E08 “staring at the sun”

Many people don't know that the human eye has a blind spot in its field of vision. There's a part of the world that we are literally blind to. The problem is, sometimes our blind spots shield us from things that really shouldn't be ignored. Sometimes our blind spots keep our lives bright and shiny.

When it comes to our blind spots, maybe our brains aren't compensating. Maybe they're protecting us.

E09 “From a whisper to a scream”

As doctors, we know everybody's secrets. Their medical histories, sexual histories, confidential information that is as essential to a surgeon as a 10-blade. And every bit as dangerous. We keep secrets. We have to. But not all secrets can be kept.

In some ways, betrayal is inevitable. When our bodies betray us, surgery is often the key to recovery. When we betray each other, the path to recovery is less clear. We do whatever it takes to rebuild the trust. And then there are some wounds that are so deep, so profound, that there's no way to repair what was lost. And when that happens, there's nothing left to do but wait.

E10 “Don’t stand so close to me”

At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance, and pretend not to care about each other...it's usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to. and once we've chosen those people we tend to stick close by. no matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping.

E13 “Great Expectations”

No one believes their life will turn out just kind of ok. We all think we're going to be great. And from the day we decide to become surgeons, we are filled with expectation. Expectations of the trails we will blaze, the people we will help, the difference we will make. Great expectations of who we will be, where we will go, and then we get there.

We all think we're going to be great. And we feel robbed when our expectations aren't met. But sometimes our expectations sell us short. Sometimes, the expected pales in comparison to the unexpected. You gotta wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the unexpected is just what keeps us steady...standing...still. The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives.

E14 “wishing and hoping”

As surgeons we live in a world of worst-case scenarios. We cut ourselves off from hoping for the best because too many times the best doesn't happen. But every now and then something extraordinary occurs ... ...and suddenly best-case scenarios seem possible. And every now and then...something amazing happens. And against our better judgment, we start to have hope.

As doctors, we're trained to give our patients just the facts. But what are patients really want to know is. Will the pain ever go away? Will I feel better? Am I cured? What are patients really want to know is... ...is their hope. But inevitably there are times when you find yourself in the worst-case scenario. When the patient's body has betrayed them and all the science we have to offer has failed them. When the worst-case scenario comes true, clinging to hope is all we have left.

E15 “ walk on water”

Disappearances happen in science, disease can suddenly fade away. Tumors go missing. We open someone up to discover the cancer is gone. It's unexplained, it's rare, bit it happens. We call it misdiagnosis say we never saw it, any explanation but the truth. That life is full of vanishing acts. If something that we didn't know we had disappears, do we miss it?

E16 “drowning on dry land”

Like I said disappearances happen. Pains go phantom, blood stops running, and people fade away. There's more I have to say. So much more. But I've disappeared.

E17 “some kind of miracle”

There are medical miracles. Being worshippers at the alters of science we don't like to believe miracles exist, but they do. Things happen...we can't explain them, we can't control them, but they do happen. Miracles do happen in medicine. They happen every day just not always when we need them to happen.

At the end of a day like this, a day when so many prayers are answered and so many aren't... We take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes against all odds, against all logic, we touch.

E18 “scars and souvenirs”

People have scars in all sorts of unexpected places. Like secret roadmaps of their personal histories... ...diagrams of all their old wounds. Most of our old wounds heal leaving nothing behind but a scar, but some of them don't. Some wounds we carry with us everywhere... ...and though the cuts long gone... ...the pain still lingers.

What's worse, new wounds which are so horribly painful... :...or old wounds that should have healed years ago and never did. Maybe our old wounds teach us something... ...they remind us of where we've been and what we've overcome. They teach us lessons about what to avoid in the future. That's what we like to think. But that's not the way it is, is it? Something's we just have to learn over and over and over again.

E19 “my favorite mistake”

Surgeons always have a plan, where to cut, where to clamp, where to stitch. But even with the best plans, complications can arise, things can arise and suddenly you're caught with your pants down.

The thing about plans is...they don't take into account the unexpected. So, when we're thrown a curve ball, whether it's in the OR, or in life. We have to improvise. Of course, some of us are better at it than others. Some of us just have to move on to Plan B and make the best of it. And sometimes... ...what we want... ...is exactly... ...what we need. But sometimes... Sometimes what we need is a new plan.

E20 “time after time”

A patient's history is as important as their symptoms. It's what helps us decide if heartburn's a heart attack, if a headache's a tumor. Sometimes patients will try to rewrite their own histories. They'll claim they don't smoke or forget to mention certain drugs, which in surgery can be the kiss of death. We can ignore it all we want. But our history, eventually, always comes back to haunt us.

Some people believe that without history our lives amount to nothing. At some point we all have to choose. Do we fall back on what we know... Or do we step forward to something new. It's hard not to be haunted by our past. Our history is what shapes us, what guides us. Our history resurfaces time after time after time. So we have to remember sometimes the most important history is the history we're making today.

E21 “Desire”

As interns we know what we want...to become surgeons. And will do anything to get there... Suffer through killer exams, endure 100-hour weeks, stand for hours on end operating rooms. You name it we'll do it. The tough part though is reconciling this huge thing we want, to be surgeons, with everything else we want.

To often, the thing you want most is the one thing you can't have. Desire leaves us heartbroken; it wears us out. Desire can wreck your life. But as tough as wanting something can be...(Addison pauses in front of the hospital)...the people who suffer the most are those who don't know what they want.

E22 “The other side of the life”

The dream is this: that we'll finally be happy when we reach our goals... ...find the guy, finish our internship. That's the dream; then we get there and if we're human, we immediately start dreaming of something else. Because if this is the dream then we'd like to wake up... ...now please.

At some point, maybe we accept that the dream has become a nightmare. We tell ourselves the reality is better. We convince ourselves it's better that we never dream at all. But the strongest of us, the most determined of us, we hold on to the dream. Or we find ourselves faced with a fresh dream we never considered. We awake to find ourselves...Against all odds...Feeling hopeful. And if we're lucky, we realize...In the face of everything, in the face of life...The true dream...Is being able to dream at all.

E23 “Testing”

A surgeon's education never ends. Every patient, every symptom, every operation...is a test, a chance for us to demonstrate how much we know...and how much more we have to learn.
