At Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, general surgery attending Dr. Riley Quinn and cardiothoracic attending Dr. Elena Voss are forced into each other’s orbit when a string of complex cases requires both of their specialties. From the beginning, their working relationship is marked by friction. Riley is direct, practical, and used to running trauma with quiet authority. Elena is precise, exacting, and holds herself and everyone around her to high standards. They clash over timing, approach, and control of the OR, and the tension between them becomes noticeable to the rest of the hospital—especially to Dr. Miranda Bailey, who has little patience for ego when patients are on the table, and to Meredith Grey, who recognizes the particular brand of surgical stubbornness that usually means something deeper is brewing.
