The sides for 704 have been released, and there is some interesting stuff in there. If you want to be spoiled, click on "read more" to find out.

Update on August 10: Revised sides have been posted. Read below.

First of all, Crystelle of TWoP posted the a summary of the patient in the side:

Jake - He's 16, athletic, good-natured and has a very enthusiastic, jocky Dad. Jake lies in bed, he's a little embarrassed because his Dad is bragging about how Jake kicked ass at his last ballet recital. Jake says ballet isn't something you kick ass at, Dad tells Dr. Howard that Jake thinks he doesn't get the whole ballet world. Jake talks about how his Dad had T-shirts printed with his picture at his last performance and it was hard to hold an arabesque when all he sees is an entire row of his face. Jake asks when he'll be having surgery. Dr. Howard says they need to run some scans on his leg first then they'll see. Jake asks if they'll then cut out the cancer, Dr. H answers that that's what they're hoping, Jake says the Seattle Ballet Company is doing Dom Quixote next summer and there's a part for a kid his age. Dad remarks that Jake has it in the bag. Jake says he doesn't, not yet, he needs a few months to prep his audition. Dr. Howard says they'll do their best to have him up on his feet before then. Dad jokes that Dr. H means back on his toes, Jakes laughs. Dr. H watches them, admiring their relationship.
Scene 2: Dr. Howard informs Jake and his Dad that the cancer has spread and they'll have to perform an above the knee amputation. Jake says he knew losing his leg was a possibility because bone cancer isn't something you get over real quick but he thought the odds would work in his favor this time. He's already the kid who does ballet and figured he'd been through enough crap for a teenager, he asks if there's nothing else Dr. H can do. Dr. H says sorry but they'll build him a state of the art prosthetic. Jake asks if it's a prosthetic like the creepy plastic ones, Dad says it's a prosthetic like the guy who runs the 100m has. Jake doesn't want a piece of crap plastic leg, he desperately turns around to Dr. H and says dancing isn't a stupid hobby or something he likes to do, dancing is something he loves to do because it's the only thing that makes him feel normal and alive. Jake pushes back his emotions, gets out of bed and although in pain, he starts to dance a beautiful, awe-inspi ring piece. When he finishes, he turns to Dr.H and tells him/her to find him a leg that lets him do that. Dr. H is moved.

The actual side can be viewed here, thanks to hjazz of LJ.

A 16-year-old patient with an ortho issue. Looks like there is potential for both AZ and Callie to be on the case together? If so, that would be toooo good to be true. Be still, my heart...

  Thanks so much for putting this info up. Its great to see some info about season 7 coming out. I am signing back into the calzona nuthouse after a short vacation to Spain!

  I totally agree that this storyline has the opportunity to bring them both together - it would be a kick ass surgery. From the slide description where the Dr is admiring the father/son relationship, it may provide a mirror to being a parent/baby story or introduce some things about Arizona's relationship with her Dad - I am reaching but a Calzona centric episode would be awesome before Jessica takes time off for her real baby. Thanks again

  Look at them feeding us those little tidbits. Once again, the possibilities are far to open to even really have a good speculation brain storm about. Back to reading fanfic, I suppose.
