Is a celebration actually a celebration with out a pooper? The query was rhetorical in Thursday’s Gray’s Anatomy as the residents’ blowout at Mer’s home included within the festivities — cue the unhappy trombone — Simone’s estranged fiancé, Trey. Did she admit to him that, at this level, he was yesterday’s information and Lucas, tomorrow’s? Learn on, and we’ll talk about not solely that turning level however how Blue and Jules spent their fateful night at Gray Sloan and whether or not the discuss was something however small when Teddy and Owen had a double date with Bailey and Ben.
‘TEAM SKYWALKER’ | As “Love Don’t Price a Factor” started, Mika was adorning for the blowout on the interns’ residence whereas, upstairs, Simone and Trey had been having it out over his lack of assist throughout her final job. Nonetheless having it out, in actual fact. (They’d been at it, it appeared, since he arrived.) Overhearing the struggle, Mika reassured Lucas that he nonetheless had a shot with Simone. It had not been misplaced on Yasuda that “you two had been seconds away from boning final night time.” When Simone and Trey lastly talked for a second quite than yelled, he requested if he’d waited too lengthy to return after her and attempt to make issues proper. Dodging the query, she mentioned that she simply wished to have enjoyable on the social gathering… however was quickly admitting that she’d missed him, too, and kissing him. (Hurry, Lucas. Hurry.)
Because the bash acquired underway, Taryn inspired Levi to get laid. But it surely regarded increasingly like she may get fortunate as a substitute. (Hello, Mika!) By and by, Trey misplaced extra floor with Simone by dissing the brand new mates that she thought-about “my individuals” and dissing Gray Sloan’s residency program. She was nonetheless steamed over that when Lucas pleaded his case, telling her how good she was in a stunning, heartfelt method. Simone was so moved that garments had been coming off earlier than the industrial break. “Child, I’m sorry for what I mentioned,” Trey pleaded from the opposite aspect of the door. “I’ll be higher.” Aw, rattling. The unwitting c–k-block labored. “In the event you love him,” Lucas suggested as he re-dressed, “it’s best to struggle for him.” Did she love him? Her non-answer was reply sufficient for the clearly more sensible choice. So as to add insult to harm, she wished to test behind the door to see that Trey was gone earlier than leaving the bed room. “Now you possibly can say you’re sorry,” Lucas huffed. Rattling — so shut!
Downstairs, as Trey stole away Simone, Mika took Taryn to see the opening within the roof. Exterior, Levi was approached by a touring nurse named Carlos. Flirtatious from the get-go, he’d even introduced his personal drinks. “I work method too exhausting to drink no matter surgical interns can afford.” Later, Simone admitted that she’d spent so many nights ready for Trey to indicate up on her doorstep. “What modified?” he requested. “Nothing,” she mentioned. (Ugh! Simone!) In response, Trey acquired down on one knee and re-proposed to her as a devastated Lucas regarded on. (Go get a few of Carlos’ higher beer, man.)
‘I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE PICKED UP MORE WINE’ | At Owen and Teddy’s, she was chagrinned to study as Ben and Bailey had been on their method over that Allison had bitten Pru once more. When Altman and Hunt’s visitors arrived, the stress was thick. “She’s exhausted after in the future of doing the job that we did for years,” Owen cracked to Bailey. Finally, dialog skirted the biting subject… however Teddy shortly steered it away. “Are you able to assist me within the kitchen?” Teddy requested. “Can’t,” Owen cracked. “Don’t have a license.” Over dinner, as Bailey requested if Teddy had regarded over the resumés for a brand new chief of trauma, Owen was shocked to study that his spouse wasn’t hiring an interim chief however a everlasting one. “This can be a enterprise resolution,” she mentioned, “so cope with it.” When the couple launched right into a efficiency of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Bailey hollered at them to get assist — and advised Ben to get the pie she’d introduced.
‘DON’T KILL ANYONE’ | Listening to concerning the Ivor Lewis process for which Blue can be scrubbing in with Maggie the next morning, Jules acquired herself added to the O.R. — if she wasn’t drained after her in a single day shift. However lengthy earlier than surgical procedure may start on affected person Natalia, she suffered a grand mal seizure, and Amelia found that she wanted a special process, urgently and immedlately. When Blue and Jules introduced Natalia and husband Elliot the consent type, Kwan requested how deep in debt the couple was. Listening to how dangerous off they had been, Blue instructed that they divorce — Natalia may qualify for extra insurance coverage, and it would defend what few property they’ve from the medical payments that had been piling up. Listening to this, Maggie chewed out Blue. Earlier than, the affected person’s mind was bleeding. “Now her mind is bleeding, and she or he’s arguing together with her husband.” Alone with Elliot, Jules suggested him that if he cherished his spouse sufficient to marry her, he may love her sufficient to divorce her. Not solely did Elliot comply with the tactic, he and Natalia had probably the most romantic, heartbreaking “breakup” ceremony ever. (If there had even been any earlier than.) Since Maggie uninvited Blue from the surgical procedure, even supposing his thought had been sensible, solely Jules was within the O.R. when Amelia operated. (Knock wooden, it regarded like Natalia may make it… not less than by this primary process.)
‘MY ANXIETY HOVERS AROUND AN EIGHT WHEN I’M NOT IN LABOR’ | In different developments, Amelia made plans for a go to from Kai. (Boy, has that relationship been moved to the again of the again burner.) After Amelia dropped Scout with Hyperlink, who had been egged by some Tank followers, he and Jo tended to a pregnant girl whose spouse was N/A as she went into labor. Because the episode drew to an in depth, Bailey, alone with Ben, referred to as him on the resentment she’d been sensing from him. What was it about? They’d been doing so nicely earlier than she went again to work, he confessed. However she was prioritizing their household, she argued. To be continued… Reasonably than let Lucas grieve what may have been, Mika pumped up a jam and acquired him dancing together with her and Taryn whereas, outdoors, Levi made out with Carlos. Catching Blue bringing Elliot breakfast, Maggie barked at him anew, prompting him to clarify what his household had been by when his mom was dying. Off that interplay, Maggie requested Richard how he knew that his and Catherine’s tough patch was solely a patch. There had nonetheless been love beneath all of it, he mentioned, including that he was positive that his daughter and Winston would work by their points. As Jo marveled at how fantastic Hyperlink had been all night time and contemplated how Amelia had given him up, his babymama mentioned that he hadn’t been proper for her… however possibly he was proper for Jo.
So, what did you consider the episode? Are you lacking Mer? On a scale of “By no means” to “OMG, a lot,” how a lot? And the way annoyed had been you that Simone walked out on Lucas?
