SPOILER WARNING- read at your own risk
Recap-
Meredith is finally stepping forward. She did something that all the Mer-Derrick fans had been eagerly waiting for, or in my case, getting annoyed
sHE FINALLY confesses her love for Derrick and decides that she’s not a nutcase and she watns to move forward in their relationship (which to me feels like it’s been going on for 50 years). So McDreamy dumps the incredibely annoying Rose, she gives him some shit about it but eventually ends up transferring to a different specialty (Peds. Nurse). Callie and Erica first feel awkward about the hot kiss from last season but they both end up admitting that this is new and they want to be mature about it. Alex proves yet again he’s afraid of commitment and a HUGE ass. Izzie sadly realizes (at least I felt this) that the only one who’s truly meant for her is Denny
but I’m really hoping she’ll move on. Now my favorite part of the episode that I’ve been waiting to happen since Season 3.. Christina fINALLY moves on to a new incredibely sexy guy. I’ve decided already I’m calling him McGIJoe. I recognized him from Made of Honor and as much as that movie sucked he was the one thing that stood out in it. it’s nice to see him not in a kilt but in a uniform
The insane chemistry between Christina and him was incredible, or maybe Sandra Oh’s just an amazing actress who always pulls this off (she’s always been my favorite character since day 1).
Highlights-
I chose some of those clips because I loved those moments in this episode. The first scene of the episode where Meredith has that nightmare, now I’ll admit Ellen Pompeo has had moments in this show where I wanted to kill her because she was so annoying, but that scene.. really changed it for me. Her characters grown so much in so many ways. and even though I knew there was NO WAY they would kill McDreamy’s character off, I was sniffling throughout that scene and I was amazed by her acting in it. Next scene was McGIJoe’s entry, very bizarre and Christina’s expressions in it were priceless- Classic Greys. Then we move on to the chemistry between Izzie and Alex, they’re so adorable and no matter how many times Alex’s character is an ass it’s moments like taht where you can’t help but warm up to him and just accept he’s screwed up. Moving forward a little, I love Lexie, she’s so innocent and caring- the complete opposite of Meredith lol. I thought it was so cute how she was sticking up for George. Then we move on to Rose and Derrick. I’ve always hated her (sorry) but this was the ONLY time I actually liked her. Derrick used her, and she had every right to act bitchy. and I wouldn’t be surprised if she meant the pregnancy thing. That would be a good twist. Then skipping forward a little we have the Izzie and Denny scene. Brought back season 2 memories of how many tissue boxes I used when watching the finale. I truly believe that Shonda Rhimes had a really hard time killing Denny’s character off because they keep finding ways to torture the fans and bringing him back. I LOVED Jeffry Dean Morgan in this show. Those dimples..
and it was so sweet how Izzie showed him her dress finally. But then again it’s so tragic because I feel like her character will never forget him, and never actually move on. Now the last scene.. I saved the best for last. Again- Classic Greys. Spontaneous makeout scenes that make me giggle. It was expected, I knew he would kiss her before the end. God it was SO hot and when I saw it I was pretty sure I would have dreams about McGIJoe doing dirty things to me.. hehe..
