Back at WPK, Green ruefully notes that the qualities Rebecca showed on the stand are indicative of why he married her. Eli agrees that she's very convincing, and Green, noting Eli's obvious emotional investment, quietly asks if he's having second thoughts about helping him. Eli, in a small voice, asks what exactly God said to Green, or if he saw anyone or heard a song. These two are absolutely killing me with their scenes here, and leave it to Berlanti to make me tear up with interactions that AREN'T REAL EVEN ON THE SHOW. Green says he just had a moment of clarity, where he felt calm, and had peace. Eli's eyes go misty as he tells Green that never happened to him, one implication possibly being that if it had, he wouldn't be having the surgery. We pull back for a master shot of the conference room...

...and then Taylor is in asking Eli if he'd like his office back now that he's a partner. Speaking of which, as a sidebar, doesn't it seem weird that no one ever seems to have any need for this library? I mean, this is coming from someone who only picks up a book when his computer and/or Blackberry isn't functional, but these are lawyers we're talking about here. Anyway, after a little banter, she tells him that she couldn't be more proud of him, and he responds that that means a lot, "especially since you're one of the people I trampled on in my ruthless climb to the top." Aw, listen to Eli make it sound like he's capable of trampling anything larger than a guinea pig. Their smiles fade, and Taylor seriously says she's been wanting to tell him something -- he's the most important person in her life. He tries to deflect this with a joke, but she won't play, and after a few moments to gather her thoughts, she goes on that he taught her about love, "and not just the romantic kind, but the all-encompassing lifetime kind." In deference to the moment, I'll skip the Golden Girls joke. Eli tells Taylor that he's going to do his "darndest" not to die, but we start to hear the beeping of a hospital monitor, so we already know where this is going. Taylor urgently tells him that he's not dead...
