Derek is driving his sweet sports car, heading to the airport to fly to D.C. for a few days. He’s on his phone, arguing with Meredith, and it starts to rain. Hard. Think of it like the universe’s worst-timed prank.
He pulls over to help a family whose car has slid off the road. He’s being heroic, fixing their tire in the downpour. Then, in a flash, a massive truck barreling down the highway clips him. It’s not a dramatic car chase; it’s a sudden, stupid, everyday accident. That’s what makes it so brutal.
He crashes, and the truck doesn’t stop. The driver is a hit-and-run driver. It’s not a villain; it’s just a horrible, random event. Sound familiar? Life’s like that sometimes, isn’t it?
