19.08 – All Star
The episode begins with our new residents – Simone, Lucas, and Mika – making an attempt to repair after which transfer to Grey’s home collectively. Painting the partitions, inserting furnishings, selecting whose bed room they’re gonna get… and, in fact – as I predicted – Simone can be on the heart stage of this new period. I like her, and I approve of this selection, however I wanna know extra. There have to be some connection we don’t learn about that connects her to Meredith.
In the following scene, we see Jo and Link at their home, and Jo is cooking breakfast for him, saying it’s a giant day contemplating he’s gonna function on a soccer teenage star. I simply love their interactions, they steadiness one another out so properly.
At GSMH, Richard and Teddy meet unintentionally earlier than shifts and Richard asks her why she didn’t give him a solution about her turning into chief. She says she’s nonetheless deciding as a result of it’s a tough job – as Owen has mentioned already. Thanks to Amelia and Maggie we additionally get a peek at Zola’s future, she’s turning into a cellist, (Good for her!), and we additionally study Maggie and Winston are nonetheless not speaking.
Considering the opposite ridiculous circumstances we had on this episode – besides Link’s one, which is absurd, however nonetheless purposeful to the storyline – crucial one is Jules’. She works on a pregnant lady case, who got here to the hospital for recognizing. At first, Jo examines and concludes the lady is just dehydrated, however there’s nothing incorrect with the infant.
In the meantime, Teddy talks to Bailey concerning the chief’s place, and Bailey tells her they want her, so she ought to ask for every little thing she needs, even the moon. That’s why Teddy, with Bailey’s assist, asks for a stipend for analysis, an assistant, and double the pay. And, to persuade her to surrender on some requests, he tells her he’s gonna be Chief of chiefs once more (I’ve to confess, I cherished that concept, I CRIED after I noticed him on the desk once more after so a few years)
Back on her case, Jules comes again to her pregnant affected person, Sierra, solely to seek out her preoccupied and in a nasty temper, and determined to take a seat beside her and ask her what’s happening. Sierra begins saying she shouldn’t be pregnant and he or she’s scared to be as a result of, after her two previous pregnancies, she ended up having postpartum despair for months. She even took medicines for it however nothing modified.
In the following scene, Jo talks to Jules’ affected person, saying she will get an abortion with none issues. And, because the affected person decides she needs to do it to “stay alive for her kids”, we additionally see – in all probability for one of many first occasions on the present – Jo performing and explaining as precisely as attainable the entire surgical procedure to the affected person, whereas Jules assists her. Considering all of the conspiracy going round about this delicate process, I feel it was a fantastic scene, particularly essential to the viewers to have a pseudo-clear imaginative and prescient of what occurs throughout an abortion, medically talking. Bravo to each Camilla (Jo) and Adelaide (Jules). By the way in which, we all know Jules mentioned she’s not made to work with children, however as I mentioned earlier than, I’m 10000% certain she’d be excellent for OBGYN. And I’m glad Jo sees it too. I feel these two would make a *sensible* group.
Teddy and Richard begin renegotiating her requests and wage till Bailey pushes Amelia into the Chief’s workplace to faux she needs to be chief. The complete function of it was, in fact, pushing Teddy to just accept the supply. Thankfully she does.
At the top of the episode, we see – as all the time – Maggie and Winston combating once more about the entire specialty factor. I’m not even gonna spend phrases on this as a result of it seems like the identical scene repeating itself over and over since November. I don’t like this in any respect, not for the couple itself, however for the ineffective storyline. Link’s surgical procedure apparently goes properly, till his affected person begins coding out of nowhere, due to a clot…and each he and the remainder of the surgeons find yourself on the heart of the storm, attacked by the media, for “k*lling” the soccer participant. At the top of the episode, we see him blaming himself – though it wasn’t his fault. In the elevator, we see Lucas becoming a member of Simone to go house, and whereas he begins speaking about his affected person of the day, she kisses him. But as they arrive house, they’re joined by Simone’s ex-fiancée…leaving Lucas slightly shocked.
19.09 – Love Don’t Cost a Thing
This episode begins the place we left the earlier one, with Simone assembly her ex-fiancee on the home, however we see them combating in her bed room, simply the day after Trey arrived. Mika and Lucas are organizing a celebration whereas speaking about Simone and Trey…and Mika says she’s #StaffLucas. And I agree.
Maggie ought to carry out a brand new complicated process, and Blue is meant to help her within the surgical procedure the following morning. While Jules tries to steal his place – they’ve a love/hate relationship apparently – she reveals Maggie how good she is and the way a lot she studied for it, leaving Blue proud, in spite of everything. (I really like them)
In the following scene, we return to Grey’s home, and we see Simone and Trey nonetheless combating about how he betrayed her and didn’t perceive her struggling (and I agree along with her). They’re a really bizarre couple.
Maggie’s affected person began coding whereas Jules was inspecting her, and Maggie asks the residents to web page Amelia for a neurosurgical seek the advice of. She’s about to go house with Scout, and he or she runs into Lincoln, leaving the infant with him. While he’s making ready Scout to go, a pregnant lady runs into the OR and asks for assist…Lincoln helps her however will get “stuck” with the affected person as a result of she doesn’t wanna let go of his hand, which might lead him to comply with each Jo and the affected person to a room.
Back at Grey’s home, the celebration has began, and whereas Mika is spending her time with Helm, poor Lucas has to look at Simone spending time with Trey, whereas he treats her like shit. He talks poorly concerning the folks on the celebration, and when Simone tried to defend them saying these are “her people” he immediately bought defensive and began diminishing all of her pals and colleagues. He tells her she will come again to her previous program, if she presents her case and apologize – she has NOTHING to apologize for, anyway. He clearly is a classist snob.
At Teddy and Owen’s home, they’re having dinner with Bailey and Ben, they usually speak about how their lives are going…though there’s stress within the air after Allison bit Prue once more.
Back on the hospital, we see Blue like we’ve by no means seen him earlier than. He cares very a lot about Maggie’s affected person and their financial scenario. The sickness, the remedies, and the hospitalizations are drowning them. He tells her it’s handy to divorce in order that the affected person’s money owed can’t damage her husband too and get extra insurance coverage benefits…it’s known as “medical divorce.” Maggie intervenes, stopping him from creating a multitude, and scolds him, saying he should not have carried out that. Blue pretended to be cynical within the first episodes, however he’s very – rightfully – emotional in terms of affected person’s rights and security.
Simone and Luke reunite on the home, and Luke says she’s excellent to him, and that she’s the neatest lady he is aware of. She kisses him they usually virtually begin sleeping collectively, till her ex stops them, knocking at her bed room door. Luke detaches from her and tells Simone to decide on Trey if the loves him. Still, on the celebration, Schmidt lastly met a brand new man, Carlos, a nurse. They begin speaking about their lives, and the way their moms are likely to not recognize their love lives particularly.
Back and Teddy and Owen’s home, they’re having dinner with Bailey and Ben, and Bailey asks Teddy if she’s reviewing some resumes for the Chief of Trauma place. Owen will get upset as a result of he thought the place was his. She says it’s simpler to rent a everlasting chief than an interim one, and it’s not a private resolution however a enterprise one. Bailey stops their infinite dialogue saying they need to cease being this nasty to one another. If Allison is biting Prue, is their fault as a result of their rage and nastiness are influencing others (Allison included), they usually need to work on their points.
Back on the celebration, Trey proposed to Simone and he or she…accepted. I actually don’t know what to say about it. They wanna make us look forward to her and Luke, however this engagement factor may’ve been prevented. Embarrassing. At the very finish of the celebration evening, we see Mika dancing with Helm and Lucas, to assist Lucas distract himself from Simone’s scenario. We additionally see Schmidt and Carlos making out so… I can’t wait to see the place these storylines are gonna deliver us.
As they go house, Bailey and Ben talk about her work. She’s busting her ass off to work however to additionally give time to her household, she’s reducing her hours and dealing weekends, however for Ben, this isn’t sufficient. He gave up this dialogue however I feel he’s gonna deliver it up once more, and I hope they gained’t break them up too, or else- I don’t know.
In the following scene, we see Kwan discussing with Maggie what he did. And he clarify her mom would’ve “divorced” him if they might, as a result of he opened bank cards to assist her get handled, and now when he has to pay his mom’s medical payments, it feels very unhealthy.
Jo’s affected person gave beginning, with Link’s assist. And as he goes house from the hospital, she asks Amelia how she let somebody like him go, and Amelia mentioned Link wasn’t excellent for her, however perhaps she’s excellent for Jo. Maybe this can change one thing between them, lastly.
At the top of the episode, we see Schmidt strolling into the hospital, and at last speaking to the residents like he’s not bored by the job anymore. I really feel like this relationship is gonna be good for him.
