Uh, no. A great time, in fact.

I'm having a red-letter day.

There'll be cake any minute.

I would like to explain how this happened.

It was never meant to be published.

I only pitched them a few ideas.

From "Hospital Hell"? That, I never even said.

And I would never say that.

Anything that I actually wrote

wasn't even directed at this hospital.

Then have them change it. Have them take it down.

I tried. They won't.

I can write a retraction, an explanation.

[ Scoffs ] A retraction won't help, Grey.

Nobody reads the retractions.

Bailey, you know me.

You know I love this place. I grew up here.

Any good I've ever done, any awards I've ever received

have been from things I learned here,

in this program, from you and Richard Webber.

[ Sighs ] I --

I'm sorry if -- if any of this has hurt you.

I really am truly sorry.

I know what you learned, Grey.

I spent years of my life teaching it to you.

Remember, I stayed late almost every night

explaining procedures and technique

when I could have been home with my family, right?

I made you study. I made you practice.

I was your friend, your mentor,

and every time you needed me, I was there.

So you can sit there and apologize to me

and say all the -- the moving words,

but the damage has been done.

♪

Bailey, I --

You can close the door on your way out.
