James Pickens Jr.: Dr. Richard Webber

Quotes 

• Dr. Richard Webber : [to Meredith]  The board met this morning. They feel that a suspension would send the wrong message. They feel that what you did disgraced the hospital, the profession. I'm sorry. I did everything I could.

  Dr. Meredith Grey : So what are you saying?

  Dr. Richard Webber : You're fired. Effective immediately. You're no longer a doctor at Seattle Grace

• Dr. Miranda Bailey : [to Richard]  We need a Gunther.

  Dr. Richard Webber : Dr. Bailey, it's the first day of fifth year, I...

  Dr. Miranda Bailey : And they're at each others throats. We need a Gunther.

  Dr. Richard Webber : I've got more pressing problems. I'm trying to find a new spot for Meredith Grey. You know, I heard they have good research fellowships at Mass Gen. I thought a recommendation from you would...

  Dr. Miranda Bailey : You want me to write a recommendation for Meredith Grey?

  Dr. Richard Webber : By the end of the day would be fine.

  Dr. Miranda Bailey : To whom it may concern, Meredith Grey is an excellent example of the kind of resident you absolutley should not hire. She underminds ground-breaking clinical trials, she has absolutely no respect for rules, authority or as it turns out the oath that she took when she became a doctor. She will most likely tarnish the reputation of you, your doctors and your hospital. Sincerely, Dr. Miranda Bailey. Meredith Grey is the reason that we need a Gunther.

• Dr. Alex Karev : [to Richard]  You need to get Meredith her job back.

  Dr. Richard Webber : What do you think I'm doing? I've spent the whole morning trying to get her a job.

  Dr. Alex Karev : Meredith doesn't need a job, she needs this job.

  Dr. Richard Webber : It's not gonna happen. The board's already made their decision.

  Dr. Alex Karev : Let me talk to them. I... I mean, maybe I don't know what I saw, maybe I... I lied to get the chief residency.

  Dr. Richard Webber : I can't let you say that.

  Dr. Alex Karev : Oh, the hell you can't.

  Dr. Richard Webber : Karev, this is not on you.

  Dr. Alex Karev : Yeah, it is. It's all on me.
