00:00 You taking my spot on the couch tonight?
00:03 [ Chuckles ]
00:05 [ Clank ]
00:06 Miranda is --
00:08 Alex Karev isn't coming back.
00:10 Left his wife, his friends, his job.
00:16 Alex Karev is now a father of two with Izzy Stevens.
00:23 And if they take my recommendation seriously,
00:29 he'll soon be Chief of Peds at Shawnee Memorial.
00:33 [ Papers rustling ]
00:36 What's this got to do with Joey?
00:38 [ Chuckles ]
00:40 No, it is a matter of luck, of grace,
00:44 that Alex Karev is who he is today.
00:48 He could've just as easily been lost to this world, aimless.
00:55 But he survived his home, his family, his foster homes,
01:02 and became a man, now a father,
01:07 a fine surgeon by luck, by chance.
01:13 Joey's future shouldn't be a matter of chance.
01:19 A child's future can't be a matter of luck.
01:25 Okay.
01:27 Okay.
01:29 Just like that, okay?
01:32 I just wanted to talk about it.
01:36 I mean, you and I, look, we both make these big,
01:39 sweeping decisions without each other.
01:42 You had a heart attack and didn't tell me.
01:45 You had a miscarriage and shut me out.
01:47 You change careers like sweaters.
01:50 [ Chuckles ]
01:51 Yeah.
01:54 And I am down for all of it.
01:57 All the change and the easy and the hard that comes with it.
02:02 Of course Joey should have you.
02:04 Should have us.
02:05 He should have a family.
02:08 But...
02:10 that family needs to learn to talk to each other first.
02:17 Okay?
02:19 Okay?
02:21 I'm sorry.
02:26 I know.
02:27 I'm sorry.
02:32 Congratulations, Miranda.
02:35 It's a boy.
02:36 A teenage boy.
02:39 It's another boy.

02:49 ♪ Don't know why, don't know why, don't know why it's happening ♪
02:52 You can quit hovering.
02:55 I'm not hovering.
02:56 I'm deciding whether to come in or give you space.
03:04 Or take you day drinking.
03:08 Okay.
03:09 Whiskey it is.
03:16 Pierce is paging me for a Zico bascule for one of our cabbage patients.
03:23 Okay.
03:26 Whiskey tonight.
03:28 Today I am working.
03:35 You're my hero.
03:39 Mine too.
03:40 We hold on to hope.
03:43 Thinking one small detail, one tiny piece of information will somehow make things right.
03:49 Make it different.
03:51 Make it okay.
03:53 Stop the world from spinning off its axis.
03:56 Mom, Uncle Alex said when I finish my science project I'm supposed to show him.
04:01 Can you show me?
04:02 He helped me come up with it.
04:04 It's a dog feeder.
04:05 See?
04:06 The dog walks on this lever, the pulley tips the bucket over and...
04:10 That is so smart.
04:12 All we need is a dog.
04:16 So, can I show him?
04:19 Can we go and show Uncle Alex right now, please?
04:23 Um...
04:26 Come sit here.
04:30 Your Uncle Alex loves you so much.
04:34 And I just got a letter from him.
04:36 You did?
04:37 I did.
04:38 When the truth is, there's really no good way to say goodbye.
