Derek is busy blowing off Lexie -- his craniotomy got cancelled, so she doesn't have anything to do today -- because he's trying to make out with Meredith behind closed doors. Are they trying to make a baby? I honestly don't remember. Now Mere is interrupting Derek's macking with talk of Cristina -- should she go talk to her? He's more intent on the making out, but for the record, he doesn't think Mere has anything to apologize for or anything. There's another knock at the door, only this isn't Lexie, it's another security guy with an earpiece, looking for Dr. Meredith Grey. Derek turns to his lady and asks what she did.
Meanwhile, Cristina is giving Callie a haircut, going at her raven locks with the zeal of an underpaid gardener. She won't let Callie look in a mirror, which is a red flag Callie ignores, probably because she's too busy suggesting they throw a housewarming party. Cristina LOVES that idea and starts vibrating in another direction, talking about getting furniture and texting people about the party, which gives Callie a moment to look at her new haircut and scream in horror. Cristina is barely paying attention ("I have several credit cards and nothing to do!"). "I look injured," Callie wails, "do you even cut hair?" Cristina stops bouncing and looks at her: "I sorta can't believe you let me do that." Anyway! Furniture! Let's go to the mall! Where Callie can hopefully find a Supercuts staffed with very understanding people.
Meredith joins Hunt and Altman in their efforts to keep President Incognito from coding. While Day looks on from out in the hall, they get his heart started again. Altman gets a text and asks Hunt about the housewarming party his wife is apparently throwing. Meredith isn't thrilled by how weird Cristina's being. Hunt asks Meredith to talk to her, and Altman thinks they all should, at the party, when Cristina can't get away. Hrm. Mere says she's the last person Cristina wants to talk to. Meanwhile, Day pulls Altman aside and wonders if maybe they could save the party-planning talk for after they save the life of the unconscious head of state. For what it's worth, he says, the Prez is a good man, and it'd be a shame if all he was working for got cut down because of this. Altman's like, "Thanks once again for the added pressure!" Back with Meredith, she's telling Hunt that Cristina needs space, but Hunt says space will lead to her getting locked out of the program. He doesn't think that's what she wants, but by the way he asks Meredith "Do you?" it sure seems like he's asking because he doesn't know.
