That is a thing that doesn't exist.

Exactly. That's why we should invent it... so we can wonder and marvel some more.

[SCOFFS] I just spent a lot of money to make money, Grey.

I need to let it make some money before I spend any more.

We'd get to keep Alex.

The only way I could afford a new fellowship for Jo Wilson is with the salary I'd free up by losing Alex Karev.

But I have to replace Karev, so there is no money.

I need the hyperbaric chamber.

Debriding in high-flow oxygen has shown to improve survival outcomes in crush injuries with wound infections.

Debriding with a scalpel would take hours.

No!

I'm upset because she's dedicated her whole life to helping people find love.

You know she's got like an % success rate.

She's an expert in her field.

She's like a UNOS of love.

It's got to be worth something.

Also, you wanted to hire her.

I'm not the one buying household goods in bulk.

Do you want to talk about that?

I'm gonna put in an internal defibrillator, and that should help with her V-Tach and buy her some time.

Thank you!

Where did you get the money?

I wrote a personal check.

Jo Wilson will be my fellow.

What?

You bought Jo Wilson?

I saw it as an opportunity to invest in the future of medicine.

I'm downright philanthropic.

You stole her.

You stole Jo and you stole my fellowship?

Hey, I didn't steal anything.

I took it because I'm taking a step back from my job in order to find a little joy, a little tranquility, and when Wilson pitched me her sci-fi space-medicine-of-the-future fellowship, I thought, "That, Miranda Bailey... That will give you joy and tranquility."

So I took it because I wanted it, and also because I had the will and the means to take it, and you did not.

So, I suggest that you do as I am doing and go find yourself some joy.

And if that doesn't work, take it up with the chief, 'cause that ain't me.
