Hahn learns from Callie (Sara Ramirez) about the whole heart-stealing, LVAD wire-cutting incident that Izzie was involved with. Echoing everyone in the whole goddamn universe, Hahn demands to Richard to know why Izzie wasn't kicked out of the program, and how the heck Seattle Grace can still be accredited after a stunt like that. Richard doesn't want to dredge all that stuff back up and yells at her to stand down.

Izzie, wracked with guilt about stealing her patient's heart and seeing Denny's ghost everywhere, hides out in the x-ray room. She begs off of Hahn's service, but Hahn wants her to be there for everything, including if he dies, because she was responsible for him being in this situation. They try the procedure again. This time, instead of freezing up, Izzie tells him to fight. As Denny looks on beatifically, Izzie tells the patient to fight and breathe, which he eventually does.

Derek and Bailey's patient is really not going to make it, and now the patient's husband is reconsidering her Do No Resuscitate order that she signed. It's really, really sad when she flatlines because the husband calls her name softly and pleads with her to stay with him. So sad! He keeps her heart beating with CPR. Bailey gently takes over the CPR, even though this is expressly against her DNR orders. Eventually, they all stop doing CPR, and Rose dies.

Back in the pit, Cristina and Alex fight over the battered John Doe patient, while Lexie finally gets the courage to speak up and tell Cristina that she won't learn anything unless Cristina lets her do stuff. I guess that Richard's new teaching protocol hasn't really sunk in yet with Cristina. Major McHottie yells at them all for not treating the patient with respect and for picking over him like vultures. Since when is Major McHottie so sensitive? I thought that Grey's Anatomy had been portraying him as a complete badass. Well, I guess being a badass and treating people with respect are not mutually exclusive.
