Addison: You are human.
Derek: She was pulling away from me and I just... it's just...
Addison: You think... you think that she went in the water on purpose?
Derek: She knows how to swim, she's a good swimmer.

Meredith: I don't wanna be here. I wanna go back.

Denny: Yeah.
Meredith: Do you know how stupid that seems now?
Denny: Yeah, I do.
Meredith: It's not enough. It's not enough, just a whiff of Derek or Cristina... I need to go back. Please, I can't... I can't.

Derek: Hey.
Meredith: Hey. (He walks in and kisses her)

There are medical miracles. Being worshippers at the alters of science we don't like to believe miracles exist, but they do. Things happen... we can't explain them, we can't control them, but they do happen. Miracles do happen in medicine. They happen every day just not always when we need them to happen.
At the end of a day like this, when so many prayers are answered and so many aren't, we take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes, against all odds, against all logic, we touch.
