    Meredith IS messy. How does she not see that? She gets food in her hair! And that snoring... Derek has to put up with a lot. nose peg isn't enough. nice idea with the earplugs, though. Then again, maybe he should shave in the mornings, since he wakes up so early. And brush his teeth so meredith doesn't have to put up with his bad breath. hee hee, they're so cute, they argue over the stupidest things. Also, Addy should SO go for Alex, they're perfect. Nice baby, that niece of meredith's. I love that Izzie was nice enough to pay for that poor girl's surgery. the results were amazing, she could walk better already by the end. and the check! she deposited it! Bailey was totally mean not to let her scrub in, though. "You're not acting like a surgeon... once agin, you've taken it too far" blah blah blah. I thought the baby softened her up. Addy doesn't want that dick's baby anyway, he would've been a terrible father (even he said so). Go with alex, addy, go with the flow... Oh yea, she kissed him. lol i forgot. George's dad is dead, sad sad, all cry. But he's back with Callie, so I'm happy.moreless

  • One of the best so far this season!

    I think the episode was really touching. I finally realised why Mark and Addy were acting so odd. Things that I didn't like: Bailey telling Izzie off, and making feel her bad. Alex being, again, a brown-noser, I really was excited, since I thought he had finally made his own rebelion, and then he takes back everything, just hoping to scrub in and then, boom, you are my lackey again.
    George's story was great, and I loved Callie and George making up and being a family(fart scene was great). It was great to hear the other part of the story, Thatcher was great. The kiss between Addison and Alex was great, and the best was to watch the human side of Cristina. All in all, I would say this epi is one of the best so far in this season. The rest is even better, until the final epis.moreless

  • George and his family have to make a decision about his father. Things continue to be awkward with Alex and Addison. Grey still battles herself and her feelings about her father. Bailey may understand a little more where Izzie is coming from.moreless

    This episode was so horribly sad. The beginning started out sort of funny. For example after Izzie told George she deposited the check finally, i laughed when Izzie told George "you made me burn my french toast", and he replied "you can buy new french toast." I knew she was going to pay for the girl's back surgery, but she did it anonymously. Bailey told Izzie she couldn't scrub in for the surgery because she's trying to teach her not to be so personally involved with her patitens. However, Bailey realizes later that she too is guilty of being personally involved. We find this out after George and his family decide to take George's dad off life support. The scene where they were all sitting at the table looking at George and asking him what he thought was so sad. I've lost family to cancer, so i know how painful it is. Grey struggles with her feelings about her father. The scene when she was trying to say she was nothing like him was funny. I thought it was hilarious when she retaliated by telling Izzie she was a millionaire in twenty dollar shoes. Grey finally gives in and confronts her father, and finds out she actually got her snoring from him. He gave her the tip about using wax ear plugs, so she gives Derek some and he seems to be happy with them (after he even mentions laser surgery for grey's snoring) lol. In the beginning of the episode when Callie was trying to talk to Addison, we find out Addison got pregnent eight months earlier with Mark's baby. Did Derek know? Were they split up at the time? She had an abortion without telling Mark, then later told Mark that they wouldn't have stayed together because he was seeing other people before she left and didn't think she knew about it. She proceeds to then tell him he would've made a bad father, and that she had wanted to have a baby but with Derek. Mark later admits to Callie that he would in fact have been a bad father. Addison and Alex finally kissed at the end of this episode, i wonder what that means for them. As a joke here i have to say, i want to know where this hospital is because it seems to be an epidemic for attendings to have relationships with their interns lol. However, i like Addison and this could turn into something good, who knows? Cristina and Burke still aren't talking but Burke basically gives in without speaking directly to Yang, but it was for her anyway. Yang finally apologizes for lying to George and reaches out to try to be a supportive friend after his father died.moreless

    The last three days. The second part of the two part story arc.
    Really hated the way George acted. I mean he lost his sense and he was totally rude to Izzie about bringing Denny up and that with Callie is also :O
    Anyway totally like it that Izzie paied the operation for Heather. Izzie is loving and heartworming girl and I totally like her.
    Addison aborted Mark's baby and that was what this was all about. The due date was this week so that is why they have been acting so...strange.
    Alex and Addison kiss each other and that was the greates moment of the episode.
    George's dad dies.moreless

    • Meredith: Is there a drawer of unopened cards somewhere? Thatcher: I'm sorry. What? Meredith: I just wanted to know.. I've only ever heard my mother's version of the story of why you left and I. I was wondering if maybe you had the side I hadn't heard. Thatcher: Your mother moved to Boston. And uh, I wanted to... but she told me not to call or come around and... uh. She was.. eventually I got re-married and I.. I'm sorry. Meredith: Do you snore? Thatcher: What? Meredith: It appears that I snore. My mother never did, so I was just.. Forget it. Thatcher: I snore. I snore like a trucker. You get that from me. The wax earplugs work pretty good. Meredith: Thanks. Edit
    • Nurse: Is that his lunch? I've been lookin' every where for that. Cristina: Oh, no. You can't have that. Nurse: What? Cristina: He's, uh, restricted from food. Nurse: No, he's not. Cristina: Uh, I'm his doctor. Nurse: No, you're not. Cristina: I just want to know how he is. Burke: And withholding food gets her that, how? Cristina: Fine. Feed him. Whatever.

    • Addison: Oh my, god. Look at you. Mark: I'm miserable. Addison: It's the rain, constant dampness in the air. It takes the body a while to adjust. Mark: I don't want to adjust. Addison: Then go home. Mark: If you'd had the baby, we'd be together in New York right now; it wouldn't be raining and even if it was, we wouldn't care because we'd be together. We'd be together. And I'd have a family instead of walking pneumonia and an ex-best friend who hates me. Addison: You didn't want to raise a child, Mark. You just wanted to trump Derek, you wanted to to win. Mark: Don't make this my fault. You didn't want a baby. Addison: No, I did want a baby, Mark. That last woman you slept with before I left New York--Charlene, the PEDS nurse -- Did you think that she was the only one that I knew about? You're rewritting history, Mark. We wouldn't still be together. We weren't a great couple, and you would've made a terrible father, Mark, I did -- I did want a baby, I just didn't want one with you. Edit
