Cremated remains are a constant source of entertainment
Dr. Meredith Grey brought a Ziplock bag full of her dead mother to work the other day, and her fellow colleagues couldn’t have been more pleased.
“Thank God,” said Dr. Miranda Bailey. “I couldn’t take one more moment of that girl’s constant whining and wincing. Luckily, that bag showed up, and the hospital was simply transformed by its delightful antics.”
The seemingly drab pile of ashes were a hot-button topic throughout various departments of the hospital. Dr. Derek Shepherd was lucky enough to encounter the remains in the hallway.
“When I saw Meredith coming towards me, I was just about to turn and run in the opposite direction,” he says. “But then I noticed that she had something in her hand, which she subsequently dropped all over the floor. As I helped her pick it up, I realized how quirky and wonderful it was that Mrs. Grey was able to make it back into work, after all these years. And her sense of humor hasn’t changed a bit. Playfully throwing herself all over the ground like that - simply charming.”
“Meredith was, of course, shitting all over our special moment together, what with her talking and all that squinting,” he says bitterly. “But it’s still something I’ll never forget.”
Meredith was pleased with the reception her deceased mother received, so much so that she is considering bringing her stepmother’s embalmed corpse to work next week, despite the fact that it might considerably upset her half-sister, Lexy.
