Quotes 

• Alana : I'm not supposed to be here. I'm a mathlete. I take five A.P classes. I'm first chair on cello. I have a perfect attendance record. I haven't missed one day, not one day of school. I'm boring.

  [chuckles] 

  Alana : Charlie Abbot's prom king.

  [crying] 

  Alana : He's in remedial math. He's never even heard of A.P. He's dumb and popular and totally gorgeous. And this morning, he says, 'Do you want to go for a ride?' To me. So, the earth is shifting on its axis or something crazy because no way. Charlie Abbot is not supposed to kiss me.

  [groans, holds her stomach] 

  Alana : Mm, so something is wrong. Some wormhole to another universe has opened. I don't know, but now I am on a road because the car I was in just flew through the air and I just ran from a giant fireball and Charlie Abbot's brain is broken and my stomach is killing me. So I am obviously not supposed to be here. So, can someone please wake me up or wave your magic wand or click your heels three times or whatever so I can go home?

  [Derek stands in front of her] 

  Alana : Please. Please. What? What is it?

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : Just look at my eyes.

  Alana : What's wrong?

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : Look at my face. Look at my eyes, okay?

  Alana : I'm scared.

• Alana : What's wrong with me? Is it my stomach? Is it bleeding?

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : It's okay.

  Alana : Am I dying?

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : No, no, no.

  Alana : I want to know.

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : You have a little cut in your tummy. It's gonna be okay. It's no big deal. I can take care of it.

  Winnie : How?

  Alana : How are you gonna fix it?

  [Derek doesn't say anything] 

  Alana : You don't know. Oh, my god, I'm gonna die out here.

  Dr. Derek Shepherd : Can you stop saying that? It's insulting. I don't let people die. I'm very good at my job, even next to the roadside, okay? I'm thinking. I'm thinking.
