Written by: Michael Pascua
Meredith, Cristina and Bailey come to Lexie and Sadie’s rescue when a routine surgery goes horribly wrong, as Owen and Derek treat a man seriously injured while sleepwalking and Mark comforts the sleepwalker’s distraught daughter.
Meredith, this week, talks about monsters and being scared in the opening monologue. Izzie is talking to Denny about how any of the events are possible. Denny suggests doing something that never happened. So they decide to have sex.
Cristina comes in at night. She bumps into Owen and he tries to talk to her but he is somewhat unsuccessful. Sadie talks to Meredith who is reading in the bathroom. Meredith talks about how Cristina is intense. They talk about Lexie being Sadie’s ally. Meredith gets a page from Cristina and they pass by Izzie’s room and she’s moaning. She thinks that it was Alex but he isn’t there; she worries that it’s Derek but he stumbles in. Alex knocks on the door and Izzie decides to play sick and closes the door on him.
The surgeons go to talk to Bailey and she has to make the decision since they are all waiting for their solo-surgery. Bailey splits the residents up. The interns come in and they talk about how they gave an epidural. Lexie decides to get rid of his appendix. The interns all decide that it’s a good idea. Sadie decides to offer her own body.
Mark and Callie talk about the man who fell out of the window. The guy overreacts about being in the hospital and struggles. He hits Callie, knocking her to the floor.
Lexie clears the boards for Sadie, and Meredith catches them. She lies that they are giving Sadie a tour.
Alex has this patient who thinks that she may have some sort of cancer. Alex thinks that it’s her appendix that may be inflamed.
It turns out that Callie broke her nose. Mark takes care of her. The father apparently has nightmares and sleepwalks. He apparently forgot to take his pill.
Lexie goes to the cabinet to steal items, she bumps into Mark. Eventually Derek bumps into Mark and Lexie and makes sure that he’s not hitting on Lexie.
At the surgery with Bailey, Meredith, and Christina, they make sure that everything is correctly fixed.
Lexie has to look at a textbook while she works on Sadie. She is nervous about the whole thing and tries to stop it. Sadie gets upset and cuts herself. Lexie successfully gets to the appendix, but it looks inflamed. Lexie worries and considers that this isn’t a normal surgery. One intern walks away because she is too afraid.
Mark talks to the little girl and she tells him to ask Callie for forgiveness. Mark talks to her about the sleepwalking. She may not have been sleeping in a while.
The paranoid girl apparently took antibiotics for a staph infection which may not have been one. She killed her own good bacteria. It turns out that there is a poop transfer.
The one intern who runs away talks to Cristina and Meredith. Alex talks to the two about how there is a lack of interns. There is a page. Lexie talks to Meredith.
Cristina finds the one intern with the catheter and the epidural and he can’t move because of the catheter.
Izzie talks to Denny post-sex. She’s still denying the whole thing. She starts crying because she thinks that everything will be gone in the morning.

Derek and Mark talk about Little Grey some more. The paranoid patient tries her best to convince her boyfriend and Alex convinces him to stay and listen. She admits that she’s really paranoid. One intern finds Bailey and she is convinced to follow him.
The father with the nightmares is being diagnosed. His daughter is convinced that it’s her fault, that she causes him all the stress. It actually was from epilepsy that the man had. The doctors are convinced that they can fix everything.
Izzie wakes up and there’s no Denny. She is nervous but he’s at the doorway. She cries at him. Izzie freaks out about the whole thing in that dramatic Izzie fashion. She crouches in the edge of the bed and Denny sits next to her and tells her that he loves her.
Bailey walks in and Cristina gets help from her for the correct way of dealing with the surgery. Meredith and Cristina inadvertently get some training. The interns all are worried about going to jail. George talks to Lexie about how he could have fixed things. Lexie tells George that it was a personal decision.
Izzie gets an important page and talks to Denny before he goes. He reassures her that he won’t be going.
Alex readies the poo to be inserted. Derek, Owen, and Mark try to fix the nightmare father and George spouts out about his relationship to the three. Derek associates it with Meredith but Owen associates it with Cristina. Mark talks to the little girl about his childhood since he had a similar situation. He convinces her to actually get some sleep.
The Chief talks to Meredith and Cristina. He thanks the two for actually reacting correctly. Lexie storms in saying that Cristina knew about the situation.
