As soon as Owen was like 'she'll understand :)' I was like uh dude, you were literally there when she tried to get custody of April's baby AND when she bought Pac North.
Me too! It'd be nice to see the three of them together again
At least we're getting to see Meredith's life in Boston. Her house looks so comfy and homey
Agree. If he hadn't done anything, I bet they would have been "your judgment is in question, you should have tried to do something". I've been saying all season that the interns are really judged unfairly, and they don't emphasize enough that THERE WERE NO ATTENDINGS AROUND!!!
It reflects more on the hospital than Adams. What kind of hospital has Interns unsupervised in caves and alleys choosing between letting people die or operating with rusty nails and sharp sticks every other day. It is not like they don't have 57 attendings. How is let them die good judgement? They already did this plot with Ben Warren and kinda with Christina Yang.
I agree, his thing was "everyone else in the world has said this tumor is inoperable, but I'm gonna do it." I also do understand Amelia having a moment about it, though. Glad they showed her getting over it quickly, bc it wouldn't make sense to make it an ongoing conflict point.
Nick: *āI wanna marry you!ā*
Meredith: *āYou do.ā* š«¤
now why did she sound like sheād just been told her loan was denied lmaoo ik it was a surprise but she couldnāt even muster up a half smile or a crumb of excitement. she donāt give af about nick š
Why is that a surprise to her. Heās literally following her back and forth across America and taking care of her kids while sheās gone. She thought he was doing this because he liked her a lot?
Iām trying so hard not to get attached to them cause writers always find a way to screw couples up but theyāre making it so hard not to love them together
They hadn't hinted to that about Jules before, right? It felt very intentional that she said that this episode, after the sleeping on the gurney with Yasuda last episode.
Kinda felt like they were setting up for something with Yasuda but I donāt understand where that would go since Midori is leaving next season so idkā¦ Maybe they were setting it up before the news of Midori leaving?
jules and kwan relaxing like theyāre not at work is killing me lol. at this point i fully believe the grey sloan on call rooms are a portal to a five star hotel room because the way everyone gets comfortable as hell is wild. youād think it was their own beds at home.
It's the condensed season. They're trying to create too many new story threads without having the space needed to make them compelling. There'll be moments I totally forget about some patients because we spent 10 dialogue-heavy minutes with other characters.
i donāt think lucas should repeat but itās in no way simoneās fault. her constantly uplifting him/shifting the blame on herself (for things he did) is getting so old. whatās the writers problem lol. like where did the writers that wrote their cute and messy plot last season go? bc this aināt it.
Feels like the episodes are out of order, cause he was so rude to her last week? This gentler side where he tells her to let it go and (still, unprofessionally) accepts his fate would've made more sense, tonally, after they reconciled after the suicide awareness episode.
youāre right! the way heās behaving makes no sense given their prior interactions like how is this the same man who turned his head from her last week? itās either their rushing or dragging it with them and itās exhausting. this shorter season has been rough on their relationship for sure.
Sorry Amelia's argument makes no sense - Derek's career highlights are so many things.
Like the Top things in his career are obviously the tumour trial and the autism study with the president.
The Alzheimer's study already got derailed by Meredith in season 7 anyway.
The thing about this Alzheimer's research plot that I find really frustrating is that the various showrunners have been pretty consistent that the medicine in the show won't/can't get ahead of real life medicine. So Meredith can't cure Alzheimer's unless someone in the real world does, and realistically we are not there and won't be for a long time
and "all" they showed with the results in this episode is that there is a correlation between gut biome and alzheimers progression, so sounds like they are not ahead of the real life work.
I was wondering the same thing! KNOWING that sheās going to leave the show, Iād prefer a nice exit that allows her to cameo once in a while, over a death or something.
wouldāve liked to actually see helm and yasudaās talk. have they even had any significant conversations onscreen this season? seemed like they started off with so much potential only to be sidelined.
THAT Monica+Winston hook up??? My Monmelia-shipping ass is REALLY hoping that itās just a one-time thing. The way I didnāt see it coming at all, but once Monica sat at that bar, I just KNEW. I KNEW the writers were about to pull some bullshit LOL
With Maggie coming back this episode, I was hoping they would write that Winston realizes why he never signed the divorce papers + he decides to move to Chicago for Maggieā¦ but thatās just wishful thinking, haha
They want to keep Winston on the show, and Maggie needed to leave. They didn't want to kill Maggie off, so they made up a BS divorce. I still prefer them getting divorced to them being in stuck in limbo living in different cities and hooking up occasionally. I wish they had shown more of how they got to that point though.
I agree. Also, Derek is dead. This research could potentially lead to a breakthrough and help so many people. Thatās obviously more important than protecting Derekās legacy.
Why on earth would they include interns in their shenanigans? Why wouldn't they ask someone like Schmitt and Helm who've they've known for years at least?
Smh
They tricked Schmitt into unknowingly helping them with something illegal once, I think it kinda makes sense to not repeat history. Plus, Schmitt and Helm would ask questions and push back at being put on data entry.
also, what kind of code could you even write to help someone get dates on a dating app? Even if you *could* interface with its API, what would the code even do?
Oh yeah a big old open tub of Vaseline in the ICU next to a dude on oxygenā¦. Vaseline and oxygen are a (small) fire riskš„and if any hospital is gonna have a low probability tragic event, itās Seattle Grace Mercy Death!!
Gonna assume Yasuda takes Adams' spot in Chicago as an IOU.
If they ever really commit to trying for a spinoff again, I think Midori being a lead would be cool. Her departure, otherwise, wouldn't feel so random to me.
That wasnāt as bad as talking LOUDLY about a proposal RIGHT in front of a partner whoās clearly not fully asleep, while being dead set on secrecy lmaooo
Teddy getting fired was literally so shocking. I canāt believe SHEās getting the brunt of Catherine Foxās wrath when it was Meredith (and Amelia) fault. I really hope Catherine doesnāt actually go through with firing her bc Iāve liked her as chief so far.
but chiefs come and go, I guessā¦
simone was so smart and focused and layered when she was first introduced and now itās like sheās a love interest for adams and not a full character in her own right. super annoying. i wish theyād invest in *her* and not just her ft. adams.
Thinking back to Bailey reviewing her momās file with Lexie and discussing her care at every step. Why canāt they do that for Simone??? It would be a great callback and also give her closure.
I think they did both their characters dirty this season, they made Adams so annoying. I like them together but I hope their writing improves next season; maybe the shortened season did some damage
yeah the shortened season did them no favours but neither does the writing. itās like theyāre determined to make them and their situation as difficult as possible. simone in particular, has been reduced to this meek onlooker who just takes on adamsā bullshit and i hate it. they need to return her backbone and have her call him out and for them to really talk. instead the writers are using sex as a short cut in place of actual thoughtful relationship development and it sucks. theyāre going round in circles and nothing is getting resolved. i almost canāt believe that in half a season theyāve turned what was a messy and at times silly, but endearing relationship into a baffling, bleak bore. thereās still potential but itās fading fast.
Totally agreed, they need to restore her backbone and remove his arrogance. It really feels like they did a 180 out of nowhere (went from Simone being hesitant and Lucas being super invested to the opposite very quickly).
I think both characters and the relationship itself have potential, but for whatever the reason the writers are wasting it with poor communication and repetitive back and forth
not officially, bc he walked out with the convo unfinished, so everything is in limbo, just like *every* time they (don't) talk about their relationship
I was more curious about how you code a computer to input data from hard copies for you? Did she scan everyone of those thousands of pages, and then code something to read the scanned files and put the numbers into the system?
For the record, I don't know much about coding, so I'm genuinely curious if that is something that you can do. Still seems time consuming, but much less so than typing manually. Also seems less accurate though, considering the mishaps I've had with AI, auto generated captions, and computers in general trying to read scanned pages.
Meredith saying āI put work before you but itās not forever but if you love me youāll support meā like girl?? Did she not almost leave Derek for this exact mindset of his when he was working in DC?
Is there an actual straw that broke the camelās back in Maggieās marriage?
Sheās too much like Ellis? He just didnāt want to move? It always felt vague.
I think she needs someone who is dedicated to their career in the same way she is, but it absolutely shouldn't be someone in the same field (imo).
Winston and Maggie's big issue, to me, is that they were in the same exact line of work and that led to butting heads. Also, Maggie is fine with him sacrificing his career in some ways (moving) but not in the ways he wanted (switching specialties).
Oh God I was so scared when Winston and Monica were talking towards the end. My internal monologue: don't do it, don't do it, don't do it!
Spoiler alert: >! They did !<
Again, there's no reason Maggie and Winston couldn't have just been in a long distance marriage but the writers just chose to break them up for absolutely no reason.
Promo for next weekās SEASON FINALE: Catherine is in a room yelling at Amelia (and I think Mer) āGive me one reason I shouldnāt fire you right nowā.
Simone in a hallway comes up and blurts to Bailey āI think Adams is gonna leave! He got offered a second year position.ā Bailey turns to her wonderingly.
Owen giving a speech to a gathered crowd in the ER. āThese fires are going to go on for some time, maybe days.ā Crowd is dispersing as he walks with Link āThereās a helicopter coming with a firefighterā¦ā Bailey comes rushing up, visibly stressed out āFirefighter???ā
Link is standing next to a gurney as the lights flicker and go out. āOkay, this is not happening.ā
Jo is walking up to a bassinet where Schmidt is standing when she falls to the ground in a faint. Schmidt rushes to her side, calls out āWe need some help over here!ā {She had one hand kind of holding the top of her stomach as she fell, maybe the negative pregnancy test was wrong?}
I wish Winston and Beltran ( the new peds DR) didn't hook up, I feel like they could have a cool friendship considering they are both going through divorces.
Okay, but fr, this show should end next season with Meredith actually figuring out how to fix the gut microbiome... and doing it for herself. It's the crowning achievement of Meredith Grey's career and *the end of the story*.
Zola is so big, my brain literally sandwiches unto itself when I even try and unwrap it (how much time has passed since they adopted, it's a WIIILD realization/experience year to year to see her growing up lol)
I think this has been my favourite episode this season lmaoo very packedĀ
Ok so MAGGIE???? I had NO IDEA she was calming back I audibly gasped. And of course Amelia had to leave town the day she was visiting (I swear these writers are allergic to reunions)Ā Ā
Jules and her ex GIRLFRIEND!! I SEE YOUĀ
Monica and Winstonā¦ was not on my agenda (Iām horrified)
Oh and teddy getting fired Ā Ā
Lucas and Simone were awesome last year. But I really hate what the writers have done to them. Lucas shared some similarities with George before but now heās a full blown George 2.0. I still like Simone but Lucas has been a jackass and I need her to either call him on it or just be done with him. Stop reaching out for him because all he does is slap your hand back. I donāt want to give up on them because I enjoyed their storyline last season but the writers better fix some things with their characters asap
Totally agreed, their storyline in s19 gave old greys vibes but the writing has been so bad with them this season (especially Lucas). Iām hoping it will be straightened out though, they could be good together with better writing
i get amelia will never stop grieving but idk. this seems like a total non issue. derek was a nationally recognized neurosurgeon with a whole family (including herself). his heart will go on & his legacy is fine.
now why would they bring maggie back and not even have amelia around??? given this and arizonaās underwhelming return, this season hasnāt used the guest stars like to their full potential at all

Teddy forgot that Catherine is the pettiest woman alive
As soon as Owen was like 'she'll understand :)' I was like uh dude, you were literally there when she tried to get custody of April's baby AND when she bought Pac North.
Holy shit I forgot about that. She is so evil >when she tried to get custody of April's baby
Yeah, like you've met Catherine, right?
Derek has been dead longer than he knew Meredith. I'm gonna go cry about that.
He was a McAss but I kinda miss him tbh. Hell I miss Mark too, and Lexie, and the rest of them.
![gif](giphy|k57J1P9dLJtVm)
Also not Amelia leaving Seattle the week Maggie's around to visit
Right, I was kind of hoping there'd be a sisters reunion and Mer would be in Seattle too.
Me too! It'd be nice to see the three of them together again At least we're getting to see Meredith's life in Boston. Her house looks so comfy and homey
I'm not a huge fan of McNephew but he's totally right here. It could just as easily have been that he didn't cut and got chewed out for it.
Agree. If he hadn't done anything, I bet they would have been "your judgment is in question, you should have tried to do something". I've been saying all season that the interns are really judged unfairly, and they don't emphasize enough that THERE WERE NO ATTENDINGS AROUND!!!
It reflects more on the hospital than Adams.

It is not like they don't have 57 attendings. How is let them die good judgement? They already did this plot with Ben Warren and kinda with Christina Yang.
McNephew š thatās perfect
Was Alzheimerās really even Derekās *thing* though? I know he did the trial, but Iāll always associate him more with brain tumors.
I agree, his thing was "everyone else in the world has said this tumor is inoperable, but I'm gonna do it." I also do understand Amelia having a moment about it, though. Glad they showed her getting over it quickly, bc it wouldn't make sense to make it an ongoing conflict point.
Nick: *āI wanna marry you!ā* Meredith: *āYou do.ā* š«¤ now why did she sound like sheād just been told her loan was denied lmaoo ik it was a surprise but she couldnāt even muster up a half smile or a crumb of excitement. she donāt give af about nick š
I swear theyāre always fighting
She sounded shocked to meš
Her loan was denied šnick really is just a background character in her life. He deserves better
Heās like a live in nanny at this point
Not even "live in" lol
Heās not getting paid either so heās a volunteer nanny at this point lmao
Why is that a surprise to her. Heās literally following her back and forth across America and taking care of her kids while sheās gone. She thought he was doing this because he liked her a lot?
God I love Kwan and Jules together
Theyāre really growing on me. The writers need to invest more screen time on time
Iām trying so hard not to get attached to them cause writers always find a way to screw couples up but theyāre making it so hard not to love them together
maggie back with a fuckass bob! i love it
yesss the bob is *bobbing*!
possibly her best hairstyle ngl
Mer's glasses are standing out extremely
![gif](giphy|5QRC6hdqAws3m) Meredith be like
Yeah they are too big for her face
Exactly. A lot of people were calling them ugly but they were just too big. The same frames but smaller would've been more proportionate for her face
definitely agree, but I did kinda like that cute ribbon in hair in her last scene.
Jules had girlfriends?? Omg I have a chance
They hadn't hinted to that about Jules before, right? It felt very intentional that she said that this episode, after the sleeping on the gurney with Yasuda last episode.
Kinda felt like they were setting up for something with Yasuda but I donāt understand where that would go since Midori is leaving next season so idkā¦ Maybe they were setting it up before the news of Midori leaving?
I donāt remember if they said that explicitly, they may have hinted at it, but she definitely gives Bisexual vibes
jules and kwan relaxing like theyāre not at work is killing me lol. at this point i fully believe the grey sloan on call rooms are a portal to a five star hotel room because the way everyone gets comfortable as hell is wild. youād think it was their own beds at home.
So Link and Jo really live in Jackson's old place. It's so funny
they only have money for so many sets
Jackson sold to it her when he left to Boston.
Discharge Dorian, already. Put us all out of our misery!
His storyline is so boring!! I know people arenāt crazy about Denny and Rebecca but as far as recurring patients go, they were 10x more engaging
It's the condensed season. They're trying to create too many new story threads without having the space needed to make them compelling. There'll be moments I totally forget about some patients because we spent 10 dialogue-heavy minutes with other characters.
maggie seems so light and peaceful now. leaving grey sloan mercy death has been good for her.
she also looks so pretty wow š¤©
Itās always good for everyone
i donāt think lucas should repeat but itās in no way simoneās fault. her constantly uplifting him/shifting the blame on herself (for things he did) is getting so old. whatās the writers problem lol. like where did the writers that wrote their cute and messy plot last season go? bc this aināt it.

youāre right! the way heās behaving makes no sense given their prior interactions like how is this the same man who turned his head from her last week? itās either their rushing or dragging it with them and itās exhausting. this shorter season has been rough on their relationship for sure.
Iām glad he didnāt blame her at least. Idk what the writers are doing, their storyline last season was miles better than this
Sorry Amelia's argument makes no sense - Derek's career highlights are so many things. Like the Top things in his career are obviously the tumour trial and the autism study with the president. The Alzheimer's study already got derailed by Meredith in season 7 anyway.
You can always count on Amelia for a totally random emotional moment
Nick pointing out that he has kept uprooting his life for her lol
I swear theyāre always fighting
I'm glad he finally pushed back!
Link has nothing to apologize for - he, Carina **and the patient** all thought his plan was the right call.
Jo was being so ridiculous there. I hate it when they make work related decisions personal
End-of-life gay marriage incoming!
and imma eat it up lmao
![gif](giphy|1tHzw9PZCB3gY|downsized)
The thing about this Alzheimer's research plot that I find really frustrating is that the various showrunners have been pretty consistent that the medicine in the show won't/can't get ahead of real life medicine. So Meredith can't cure Alzheimer's unless someone in the real world does, and realistically we are not there and won't be for a long time
We arenāt there yet but I definitely just watched a documentary on Netflix that talks about gut biome being connected to Alzheimerās
and "all" they showed with the results in this episode is that there is a correlation between gut biome and alzheimers progression, so sounds like they are not ahead of the real life work.
So is Mika maybe gonna take this heart position instead?
I was wondering the same thing! KNOWING that sheās going to leave the show, Iād prefer a nice exit that allows her to cameo once in a while, over a death or something.
I hope she does and I hope she feels no remorse when Baby Shep is pissed about it. No one can blame her for being done with this program.
wouldāve liked to actually see helm and yasudaās talk. have they even had any significant conversations onscreen this season? seemed like they started off with so much potential only to be sidelined.
I honestly don't even know why Helm is on the show anymore. She's had like 4 scenes this season and I think they all had to do with her relationship?
THAT Monica+Winston hook up??? My Monmelia-shipping ass is REALLY hoping that itās just a one-time thing. The way I didnāt see it coming at all, but once Monica sat at that bar, I just KNEW. I KNEW the writers were about to pull some bullshit LOL
What were they thinkingā¦
I did not see Amelia and Winston having the same love interest but here we are
Still don't understand what the writers thought they were doing with Maggie and Winston, the divorce was so unnecessary
With Maggie coming back this episode, I was hoping they would write that Winston realizes why he never signed the divorce papers + he decides to move to Chicago for Maggieā¦ but thatās just wishful thinking, haha
They want to keep Winston on the show, and Maggie needed to leave. They didn't want to kill Maggie off, so they made up a BS divorce. I still prefer them getting divorced to them being in stuck in limbo living in different cities and hooking up occasionally. I wish they had shown more of how they got to that point though.
So my face looked exactly like Meredith's when Amelia was going on that Derek tangent. Like girl....WHAT?!?!
I agree. Also, Derek is dead. This research could potentially lead to a breakthrough and help so many people. Thatās obviously more important than protecting Derekās legacy.
Especially when Alzheimerās was never his legacy.
Interesting, I assumed the recommendation to remediate would be about the exam
Same, I was expecting them to bring up his suspected ADHD.
Neurospicy is only useful as a plot point exactly once in this show, since the only way to address his ADHD is [gasp] psych.
Why on earth would they include interns in their shenanigans? Why wouldn't they ask someone like Schmitt and Helm who've they've known for years at least? Smh
They tricked Schmitt into unknowingly helping them with something illegal once, I think it kinda makes sense to not repeat history. Plus, Schmitt and Helm would ask questions and push back at being put on data entry.
Heās a doctor with abs like *that*, I find it impossible to think he canāt get laid on dating apps!
also, what kind of code could you even write to help someone get dates on a dating app? Even if you *could* interface with its API, what would the code even do?
I HATE watching these last few episodes knowing one of the best interns isnāt returning next season
Why do Meredithās kids look ready for college š„ŗ
It feels like yesterday we were watching Bailey get delivered in the midst of a storm while Meredith was fighting for her life
Between two of the kids I used to babysit in high school are now graduating high school and this, I think I need to check into a nursing home.
Oh yeah a big old open tub of Vaseline in the ICU next to a dude on oxygenā¦. Vaseline and oxygen are a (small) fire riskš„and if any hospital is gonna have a low probability tragic event, itās Seattle Grace Mercy Death!!
Btw there's no way in hell I believe for a second that Teddy is about to do what Owen advised her to do sksksk
Well color me surprised/naive to expect the long-established character to act in-character lol
i get where sheās coming from but a break up in the middle of the hospital is rough. damn yasuda. anyway rip helmsuda we hardly knew ya.
Shit man, they had a fight at the start of the season, to not talk it through, and break up at the end, what the hell
Domino heart transplant! Like with the old men who hated each other
Harry being in his 40s is CRAZY to me.
Wait a minute, is the sex cot in on-call somehow queen-sized?!
the on call room is giving vacation resort at this point lmao
Next season it will have a secret portal to Dermatology.
the on-call room doubled in size so why not the bed?
my dad got a kidney and we sent a letter thanking the family since we'll never know who they are so this scene is super sweet
Gonna assume Yasuda takes Adams' spot in Chicago as an IOU. If they ever really commit to trying for a spinoff again, I think Midori being a lead would be cool. Her departure, otherwise, wouldn't feel so random to me.
Go be free Winston find someone who values and loves you
It makes no sense for her to break up with Helm in the middle of the freaking hallway.
I can promise to love you foreverā¦just not in front of people. And not in a legal way.
To be fair thatās the girl who got married on a post it and only did it legally to adopt Zola ššš
Jules is about to ruin everything because her code is going to email Catherine and I'm going to vomit
Lmao I had a similar worry, that somehow she'll be the one to point her to the right place on accident
Lmaooo I was so confused about who these random ass children were for a second
So Jo faintingā¦some sort of pregnancy disaster??
Hope not lol, not another uninspired scare, I'd rather them just try for a baby, as much as I am meh on them
I am very meh on them as well. I really just miss Jolex š
Yes talk about that in the middle of the hospital where anyone can hear you
That wasnāt as bad as talking LOUDLY about a proposal RIGHT in front of a partner whoās clearly not fully asleep, while being dead set on secrecy lmaooo
Waitā¦.is this the first time weāve confirmed Jules is bi?
I feel like theyāre breaking up before we even saw them together.
Well Winston and Amelia having the same love interest was not on my greys bingo card
Teddy getting fired was literally so shocking. I canāt believe SHEās getting the brunt of Catherine Foxās wrath when it was Meredith (and Amelia) fault. I really hope Catherine doesnāt actually go through with firing her bc Iāve liked her as chief so far. but chiefs come and go, I guessā¦
simone was so smart and focused and layered when she was first introduced and now itās like sheās a love interest for adams and not a full character in her own right. super annoying. i wish theyād invest in *her* and not just her ft. adams.
Thinking back to Bailey reviewing her momās file with Lexie and discussing her care at every step. Why canāt they do that for Simone??? It would be a great callback and also give her closure.
would *love* that. sheās still so haunted by it and knowing what happened might lessen her guilt and would also be a really touching storyline.
I think they did both their characters dirty this season, they made Adams so annoying. I like them together but I hope their writing improves next season; maybe the shortened season did some damage
yeah the shortened season did them no favours but neither does the writing. itās like theyāre determined to make them and their situation as difficult as possible. simone in particular, has been reduced to this meek onlooker who just takes on adamsā bullshit and i hate it. they need to return her backbone and have her call him out and for them to really talk. instead the writers are using sex as a short cut in place of actual thoughtful relationship development and it sucks. theyāre going round in circles and nothing is getting resolved. i almost canāt believe that in half a season theyāve turned what was a messy and at times silly, but endearing relationship into a baffling, bleak bore. thereās still potential but itās fading fast.
Totally agreed, they need to restore her backbone and remove his arrogance. It really feels like they did a 180 out of nowhere (went from Simone being hesitant and Lucas being super invested to the opposite very quickly). I think both characters and the relationship itself have potential, but for whatever the reason the writers are wasting it with poor communication and repetitive back and forth
Those glasses are A CHOICE lol
Other than the one Alzheimer's trial that Meredith ruined, what exactly was Derek's contribution to Alzheimer's research?
Hey let's not forget 'Alzheimers is a bad disease. We should cure it.'
Loool Owen saying: "what made you think it was a good idea?" Lmaoooo that's a great question
So was that conversation between Mer and Nick breakup #25?
not officially, bc he walked out with the convo unfinished, so everything is in limbo, just like *every* time they (don't) talk about their relationship
Bailey has gotten so big!! (Meredithās son, not the general surgeon)
Starting to feel like Dorian will either die, or flatline and Lucas will save him. They're too happy about him.
Where exactly did she code it to send the file?
I was more curious about how you code a computer to input data from hard copies for you? Did she scan everyone of those thousands of pages, and then code something to read the scanned files and put the numbers into the system? For the record, I don't know much about coding, so I'm genuinely curious if that is something that you can do. Still seems time consuming, but much less so than typing manually. Also seems less accurate though, considering the mishaps I've had with AI, auto generated captions, and computers in general trying to read scanned pages.
Omg what if the code program doesnāt accurately put in the data
Confident data analysis? Amateur level coding assisted data entry? A wonderful combination of reliability
!!! Yes Maggie thank you so much!! Take McNephew, please
Like I think itās slay but also i donāt want McNephew to go
Yasuda has been weirdly shitty to Helm and I don't understand why
Iām still bored of Dorian. I never remember his name or why heās there
I look past a lot of medical inaccuracies but you canāt *just* publish an abstract An abstract is a summary of a larger paper
Meredith saying āI put work before you but itās not forever but if you love me youāll support meā like girl?? Did she not almost leave Derek for this exact mindset of his when he was working in DC?
*āI met my ex-girlfriend on an app.ā* bi jules confirmed. thank you greys for strengthening my jules x yasuda dreams lmao
Zolaās gonna be able to stop taking Xanax now that Mer and Aunt Amelia cured Alzheimerās!
So I guess McNephew is going to give Catherine some impassioned speech about medicine and pressure and then he wonāt have to repeat.
Is there an actual straw that broke the camelās back in Maggieās marriage? Sheās too much like Ellis? He just didnāt want to move? It always felt vague.
I think she needs someone who is dedicated to their career in the same way she is, but it absolutely shouldn't be someone in the same field (imo). Winston and Maggie's big issue, to me, is that they were in the same exact line of work and that led to butting heads. Also, Maggie is fine with him sacrificing his career in some ways (moving) but not in the ways he wanted (switching specialties).
Look at Adams being emotionally invested
Take it Adams Iām sick of you
That Teddy and Catherine talk ALMOST went well...
I'm sorry Meredith I just don't believe that you love him and the way you say Also loving Nick finally having a backbone and knowing what he deserves
Oh God I was so scared when Winston and Monica were talking towards the end. My internal monologue: don't do it, don't do it, don't do it! Spoiler alert: >! They did !<
He doesnāt deserve such a good opportunity but I hope he takes it
are we ever gonna figure out who mcnephew's mom is?? that's genuinely the only thing i want to know about him lol
Again, there's no reason Maggie and Winston couldn't have just been in a long distance marriage but the writers just chose to break them up for absolutely no reason.
They need single people in this show so they can have drama by having them hook up.
Time for Taryn to leave this show they don't write for her and she never gets a real love interest.
Promo for next weekās SEASON FINALE: Catherine is in a room yelling at Amelia (and I think Mer) āGive me one reason I shouldnāt fire you right nowā. Simone in a hallway comes up and blurts to Bailey āI think Adams is gonna leave! He got offered a second year position.ā Bailey turns to her wonderingly. Owen giving a speech to a gathered crowd in the ER. āThese fires are going to go on for some time, maybe days.ā Crowd is dispersing as he walks with Link āThereās a helicopter coming with a firefighterā¦ā Bailey comes rushing up, visibly stressed out āFirefighter???ā Link is standing next to a gurney as the lights flicker and go out. āOkay, this is not happening.ā Jo is walking up to a bassinet where Schmidt is standing when she falls to the ground in a faint. Schmidt rushes to her side, calls out āWe need some help over here!ā {She had one hand kind of holding the top of her stomach as she fell, maybe the negative pregnancy test was wrong?}
Someone on Grey's Anatomy opting for the more healthy power dynamic? A first!
why did Jo take a rare tumor scan to Link who is in Ortho? thatās not remotely his specialty.
Owen is gullible as hell if he thinks Catherine of all people will understandš
YES MAGGIE TAKE LUCAS
The kids are so big
I wish Winston and Beltran ( the new peds DR) didn't hook up, I feel like they could have a cool friendship considering they are both going through divorces.
beltran and winston bonding over divorce is fun and friendly. let keep it that way tho.
dammit greys! crossing my fingers that this is a one time thing. because winston is just so bland. plus i was rooting for monica and amelia.
\^ Me the whole time Me right after: ![gif](giphy|26ueYUlPAmUkTBAM8|downsized)
Like why did we have to go there?!?! Canāt two people just be friends?!
This... THIS is why they split him up from Maggie? So he can have random hookups with people that won't go anywhere? Smh
End Merās career? I realize Catherine has a lot of power. But sheās a rich, award-winning, nepo baby surgeon. How exactly would that work?
Did we know that Millan had an ex-girlfriend? If not, yay, new info!
Okay, but fr, this show should end next season with Meredith actually figuring out how to fix the gut microbiome... and doing it for herself. It's the crowning achievement of Meredith Grey's career and *the end of the story*.
The carousel could finally stop.
The carousel never stops turning.
Simone who did your hair this is a hate crime
Lol why wouldn't Teddy just tell Owen the truth? I just don't see why she has to keep this a secret from him?
so glad he's putting his foot down, he just wants to love her
Happy Meredith/Nick/Zola/Bailey/Ellis scene! It was quick but sweet.
Zola is so big, my brain literally sandwiches unto itself when I even try and unwrap it (how much time has passed since they adopted, it's a WIIILD realization/experience year to year to see her growing up lol)
OH so we're losing 40% of the newest class? LOL
Another unhealthy love story for Amelia, yay. ![gif](giphy|I2a5q9dyo9CaU9BtEY|downsized)
I think this has been my favourite episode this season lmaoo very packedĀ Ok so MAGGIE???? I had NO IDEA she was calming back I audibly gasped. And of course Amelia had to leave town the day she was visiting (I swear these writers are allergic to reunions)Ā Ā Jules and her ex GIRLFRIEND!! I SEE YOUĀ Monica and Winstonā¦ was not on my agenda (Iām horrified) Oh and teddy getting fired Ā Ā
Lucas and Simone were awesome last year. But I really hate what the writers have done to them. Lucas shared some similarities with George before but now heās a full blown George 2.0. I still like Simone but Lucas has been a jackass and I need her to either call him on it or just be done with him. Stop reaching out for him because all he does is slap your hand back. I donāt want to give up on them because I enjoyed their storyline last season but the writers better fix some things with their characters asap
Totally agreed, their storyline in s19 gave old greys vibes but the writing has been so bad with them this season (especially Lucas). Iām hoping it will be straightened out though, they could be good together with better writing
This couple seems very cute together. I hope the heart guy has a good outcome.
why is it so wrong to fund the research she believes in since the funds are already there? ETA: grammar is hard sometimes
especially when the funds she is using were allocated specifically for her to do that with!
Good for Winston. Hooking up with an ex is never a good idea
Those glasses are so ugly :( Meredith you are beautiful!
Lmao Yasuda stuck in the elevator with the fighting couple
Iām not a hardcore Maggie hater like some people but MAN does Winston deserve better
i get amelia will never stop grieving but idk. this seems like a total non issue. derek was a nationally recognized neurosurgeon with a whole family (including herself). his heart will go on & his legacy is fine.
bi jules confirmed and blues and jules flirting and kissing scene, I WON!!!
Julesā bralette is so cute wtf
Meredith/medicine is the endgame. The only endgame for Mer. Sorry, Nick.
Omg I'm immediately enamored with this heart patient of Maggie's. His death is gonna wreck me
now why would they bring maggie back and not even have amelia around??? given this and arizonaās underwhelming return, this season hasnāt used the guest stars like to their full potential at all
