Addison is back!!! At least in the latest installment of the happenings at Seattle Grace Hospital. Addison Montgomery returns to SGH to work on an important case, and she expects for things to go smoothly, for everything to be lovely and just as she left them. Little does she know that her very presence will set a whole slew of things in motion, which will lead up to an awesome finale that will not be lame. This is of course, wishful thinking as I have no idea what will happen in the finale.

Perhaps it’s because an old cast member returned, but Grey’s is finally starting to come back to what it used to be. George is starting to hint that he is that Heart-in-the-Elevator guy that Bailey named her child after. He’s starting to come into his own as an intern, time to start fresh. This is a really good development that I’m excited to see. Let’s face it, his relationship with Izzie is never going to be the same again so it’s really great to see him starting to build this new life for himself – even if Izzie will always be a part of it.
As for Izzie, she has found herself in a rut. Much like the show that she’s on. But just like the show that she’s on, this episode might just be the turning point for her. Izzie confronts a patient, who is HIV+ and pregnant about the possibility of not having to o abort. But she’s told off by the patient, and hides away in a corner and becomes an emotional eater. Only when Addison quotes her some Ghandi (“Be the change you want to see in the world”) does she get up off her keister and man up – telling the patient that there is a 98% chance to have a healthy baby – the way that you want a confident, beautiful doctor to tell you. Could it be that Season One/Two Izzie has found her way back?! And speaking of Early Izzie, I have a certain fantasy. Let me lay it out for you, it involves Alex and Izzie getting back together. Let me explain . . .
Rebecca/Ava/Jane Doe is back again. But hopefully not for long, since Elizabeth Reaser is getting her own TV show. Last time we saw her on the show, she came back for a romantic sexual encounter with Alex (which was actually kind of sweet if you enjoy the two of them as a couple). Well now she’s back. And apparently pregnant. Except not really. In fact, this story line reeks of Fatal Attraction as Izzie so eloquently put it. Let me lay this out. Rebecca shows up and announces that she’s pregnant. Alex reacts and tells her to get rid of it (basically). He then ends up operating on a baby and at the end of the surgery; he realizes how precious the life he created is. Meanwhile, Izzie gets back the lab results from Rebecca and finds out that she isn’t pregnant. The episode ends with Alex and Rebecca together, him being so incredible and sweet and showing a side of Alex that we never get to see but totally know is there – and he reaches out and touches her belly. This would be awesome . . . if it wasn’t so creepy. Please Alex don’t get trapped!!! But, on the other hand, he finally has a story line. So thanks Shonda!!!
Meredith and Derek are undergoing a clinical trial to help out brain tumor guy from the last episode. But things don’t go well, and the trial fails, and brain tumor guy dies, leaving behind his widowed newlywed. It also appears that Meredith and Derek just might be able to work together just as doctors, side-by-side. But Addison gives the two of them some telling off, in the way of “you’re being stupid for giving each other up”.
Mark and Callie after some sexy drunk dancing go off and (most likely) have some sexy drunk sex. But what could be the reason for this reconnection? It could be that Mark is sad because Addison, and Hahn, and the nurses are blowing off his advances. It could be that Callie is confused about what kind of relationship she is having with Hahn, especially after Addison asks her if they are a couple; to which Callie emphatically announced that she loves Penis. It could be a combination of both. Regardless, it was hot, cuz the both of them are hot. There are lots of ways this story line could go, and although it seems more than obvious that Hahn has the hots for Callie, I sincerely hope that it’s not reciprocated. Mostly because I dislike when TV shows randomly make a person that wasn’t gay at all before and make them gay without any build-up to that revelation at all. Just because she’s a divorcee doesn’t mean she automatically must like girls.
Meanwhile Cristina is trying to figure out why Hahn won’t be her teacher, to which Hahn responds that she’s not going to be telling Cristina what a good job she’s doing, and won’t respond to the advances. We find out that this is because Cristina reminds her too much of herself. I’ve never really understood why this cliché makes people dislike other people. Can someone clear that up for me? Because I think its lame excuse.
Addison ends up returning to Los Angeles at the end of the episode. But not before giving Bailey someone to confide in, and telling the chief that her position needs to be filled.
I’m looking forward to where things are going to go from here. This episode finally felt like the show I used to watch way back when (I honestly think a big part of it has to do with an old cast member returning). Actual storylines are developing. This is a good thing.
Any questions, comments, concerns?
I hate it when a cast member suddenly turns gay too! So crazy! I hope they don't do it with Callie.
ReplyDeleteThe Alex/Izzie reunion is something I am oping for too!!! And hopefully this whole Ava/fatal Attraction thing plays out quick and easy so we can move on to Alex/Izzie.
Also, it is SO good to see someone tell Meredith and Derek how dumb they are! Go Addy!
