Episode Recap
Cristina is still recovering from her surgery while receiving a visit from her caring, yet annoying, mother. Cristina refuses to abide by the doctor's orders and stay in bed, so she takes it upon herself to be helpful around Seattle Grace. She helps herself to a patient file of Izzie's and determines that the patient is taking medicine so that she can receive medical treatment. At first, Izzie and Preston do not believe Cristina's theory, but after the patient's urine turns blue (which is an effect of the medication that she had been taking), their feelings change.Cristina also has to deal with Preston in regards to the baby. He asks her for her reasoning behind concealing the truth. At the same time, Meredith is dealing with the continuing problem of Derek and Addison. Addison gave Derek divorce papers, but Derek is unsure if he wants to sign them. Another relationship is taking to newer heights when Alex asks Izzie on a date. After the date, Alex takes Izzie home. He steps inside for a few seconds. Izzie is waiting for a good night kiss, but Alex hesitates and leaves. Izzie is mad at him.
