The episodes begins as Meredith reads her mom's diary by flashlight in hopes to not be caught reading by McD who is asleep beside her. Her inner monologue begins talking about how she is a rock, she is solid, she is independent, leading me to believe that the episode will revolve around how much we need others help. That and the episode is titled "One for all." But that's really just semantics.

Across town Torres and Hahn come in from another lovely evening of hanging out and drinking wine. They discuss how nice it is to be taking it slow. If taking it slow in a lesbian relationship involves drinking wine with girlfriends then I'm pretty much Tila Tequila. As they discuss this beautiful taking it slow world, they have one of those scenes where lovers are overcome with the passion of not making out that they jump on each other and begin to make out. I get the sentiment, but the passion is just not there. Maybe it's because I'm pretty sure Hahn in real life would wear mom jeans, and nobody as spicy as Torres would rip off mom jeans from her lover. No, Way.

Oooh, are these the new control top panty hose?

The next day a smiley Meredith is rushing out the door when Derek shows her that he has made the cover of a medical journal for his success with "The Shepherd Method." A quick recap of, The Shepherd Method: the method that Meredith convinced him to do last season that they worked on together all season, killed a bunch of people, and finally found success.

Meredith noticed fairly quickly that "The Shepherd Method" does not mention a certain resident who came up with the idea, and leaves saying, passive aggressively, that nothing is wrong. She also says that she's fine with her mom being verbally abusive and her dad walking out on her, JUST FINE. And in other news, hell has frozen over because I agree with Meredith for being pissed about this and would have handled it the exact same way. Although I probably would have muttered "asshole" under my breath as I walked out.

At the hospital, Torres finds Sloan to compare notes on the female anatomy. Sloan ready for some post coital goodness is disappointed to hear that after heading to "the embassy" Torres found out that she isn't really ready to become a citizen. Sloan gets irritated by someone given a passport that she doesn't want to use and storms out on her.

I didn't know the kid from "Can't Buy Me Love" became a doctor

I was a little worried for Torres, that after heading South of another continent's border...that it might ruin future trips on her own terrain...Maybe spoil some of the magic... But I worked at Disney for awhile and checked out some of the messiness behind those scenes, and it's still magical every time I go. So I think she's straight, I mean...fine.

But enough about vagtastic voyages. Down in the Doctor's-only locker room, head cheerleader intern Lexie is decorating George's new big-boy locker with balloons and baked goods. He is so giving her his letterman jacket. She straightens out her "I will do anything for you George" t-shirt and tries to talk to the other Doctors. They react to her the way you would to any pathetic girl who decorates someone's locker with balloons and cookies and she quickly leaves.

Elsewhere, Bailey is bouncing around like a kid on Christmas as she rounds up the residents and interns for something she is very excited about. Bailey begins to give the crew very difficult words for them to hear by saying that today is about HER, and that they all have to put their crap aside and come together for something that she has worked very hard on. Meredith is so stunned by having to think about someone else that she forget to tell Yang about her problems with Derek!
