Meddling Mama

Outside the OR, Catherine manages to swallow her pride and admit that she was wrong and Mark and Jackson made an impressive save. Mark's his cocky self in accepting the praise but then tells her that Jackson is a good kid, and she should let him find his own way and he'll do well. She thanks him, and he starts to walk away but then turns and adds that she shouldn't count out Lexie Grey because she is smart, beautiful, and perfect. She's Mary Poppins: practically perfect in every way. He adds that a guy couldn't do any better, and while Catherine doesn't say anything she clearly makes a big mental note about his praise.

Bailey has taken a seat again outside and waits there until Ben walks out the door. He acknowledges her but starts to walk away, so she stands and calls after him somewhat timidly that she wants to tell him something before he hears it through the incredibly effective hospital grapevine. She informs him that she broke up with Eli, and knows that Ben will think this has to do with him, but she wants to be extremely clear that it has nothing to do with him at all. Unfortunately, awkwardly making a point of informing someone that something has nothing to do with them really is only a giant, loud, bright, clear, unequivocal declaration that it in fact has everything to do with them. Ben certainly knows this, and he doesn't make a lot of effort to control his grin. She keeps insisting that it's not to do with him and keeps asking if she is clear, and finally he just murmurs a little agreement. But she knows he doesn't really mean it, and as he walks away she keeps yelling after him, almost begging him to believe her. He just grins and waves as he wishes her goodnight and goes on his way.

The Averys and April have gone to Joe's to celebrate their successful surgery, but April can't stop apologizing for shredding up the vein. Catherine repeats that she has to learn how to relax, adding that she's now making a good day feel bad. Chad has wandered over to the bar as well, and he walks up to the table and thanks April for the drink. She's flustered and utterly confused, but Catherine very pointedly says that he's talking about the drink she sent to him; it takes April a few beats to realize what Catherine did and Chad surely must know this is a setup. Catherine tells April with a grin that this is the moment where she gets up and plays darts with the guy; April takes a giant gulp of her drink for some Dutch courage and then gets up and walks over there while Jackson watches, embarrassed but amused. He asks her why she has to be such a meddler but she happily clinks his glass and insists she is using her powers for good this time.
