It was a long wait, but well worth the wait. What a great chapter. I loved that you highlighted some of my frustrations with the show through this storyline. For instance, the lack of teaching that went on between the residents and Lexie's class of interns. It was a total disgrace. If Bailey had treated them that way when they were interns, they would have murdered someone just to see if they could bring them back to life...well actually I guess that is what they did to Denny, but that wasn't because Bailey wasn't teaching them. Anyway, and then you highlighted the whole taking sides on the Lexie/Meredith which was ridiculous. And then you have Bailey who is more concerned with the possibility that an attending might be sleeping with an intern, or rather an intern sleeping with an attending, than she is in finding out why her residents suck when it comes to teaching their interns. All of these items were dealt with swiftly and with great style and flair by you in this chapter. Loved Mark telling off Bailey. Loved Mark coming up with the nicknames and Derek's reaction to it. Loved Lexie throughout the chapter with her eagerness to learn, excitement of performing procedures, moving on with her life even though Meredith and her cronies are trying to make it as difficult as possible and doing it all with humor, patience and style. Loved the ending!

I can't wait for more and hope you update very soon!

Thank you so much for hanging in there with me! I'm so glad that the chapter was worth the wait...you have no idea how happy that makes me!

There was so much about Season 4 that I wanted to be different...not sure if the quality of the season had anything to do with the writer's strike, but I'm going to blame it on that :) Anyway, I'm glad that I'm addressing things in a way that you think would have been appropriate...there are a few things that I really wanted to be different and so I'm having fun with taking some liberty with changing things.

Thank you so much for reading. The next chapter is about half finished...so hopefully it'll be up soon!
