| Miranda Bailey's Dilemma |
|
One of the big disasters at Seattle Grace when two ambulances crash outside the front doors. Now, not only are the patients being transported in more peril, but now they've got the four medics to attend to as well. None ends up being an "easy" case, but I do not envy Miranda Bailey this week. Miranda's husband is starting to get pissed off that she's gone all the time, leaving him to care for the baby by himself. She puts him off and says they'll talk at lunch. Here's where Bailey's pride gets the best of her. She takes in a medic who refuses treatment from a woman, so she grudgingly brings in Chief, only to find out that it's really that he wants a white doctor. In examining the man, they find a white supremacy swastika covering his entire abdomen. You know Bailey ain't gonna be happy about this one. . . so she forces Cristina Yang to scrub in with her because she's not white. Let me just tell you, Crisitina is NOT happy about that one. Bailey keeps saying "I am rising above" in order to remind herself to do the right thing and help this man, but I can't help but think that her pride is getting in the way A LOT. I get how she could be so upset, after all, the patient is an extreme hater, but she completely puts her husband aside and leaves him waiting. . . AGAIN. Plus, she exploits Cristina for her race which is questionable in itself. Of course the surgery takes a lot longer than she anticipates and she sends George O'Malley out several times to ask her husband wait, but eventually he leaves. She justifies it by telling herself how much good she is doing, without being able to admit her faults in brushing him aside. Bailey better watch herself, this could be a bad path to take. |
