Opening:
Doctors practice deception all the time.
We give vague answers to hard questions.
We don't talk about post-op pain.
We say, "you'll experience some discomfort."
If you didn't die...
we tell you, "the surgery went well."
But the placebo has to be
the doctor's greatest deception.
Half of our patients, we tell the truth.
The other half...
we pray that the placebo effect's real.
And we tell ourselves that
they'll feel better anyhow,
believing help's on the way,
when in fact...
we're leaving them to die. - dr. Meredith Grey -

Doctors practice deception every day...
on our patients...
on their families.
But the worst deception
we practice is on ourselves...
Which is why sometimes,
it takes us a while to realize...
that the truth has been
in front of us the whole time.- dr. Meredith Grey -
