Station 19 Season 7 Just Reversed A Major Grey’s Anatomy Story With Sully & Natasha – Screen Rant
Warning! SPOILERS about Station 19 season 7, episode 5 ahead.
After episodes where Sully proposed and Natasha didnt give him a straight answer, Station 19 season 7, episode 5 finally managed to get them engaged and in doing so, it referenced a major Greys Anatomy seasons 10 and 11 storyline. Station 19s 100th episode included plenty of dramatic developments, but Ben and Sullys predicament that left them surrounded by fire and with little oxygen was among the most difficult, putting in danger two of Station 19s main characters. Almost losing Sully finally gave Natasha clarity regarding his marriage proposals, also explaining why she didnt seem to take them seriously before.
Sully and Natasha spent Station 19 season 6 fighting over whether to keep their relationship private, with the two torn between protecting their relationship and their careers, as Natasha being Sullys superior put them in a precarious situation. While the ballroom floor collapse in Station 19 season 6s finale endangering Natasha made Sully certain of what mattered, every time he asked Natasha to marry him in Station 19 season 7, she didnt answer clearly. Their talk in Station 19 season 7, episode 5 finally explained it had nothing to do with their love but much to do with Natashas fears.
Natasha admitted she had been stalling her relationship with Sully in Station 19 season 7, episode 5, sharing that she had been terrified that someday Sully would want her to play small. Her reveal simultaneously clarified that she really was avoiding answering Sullys proposal and why, showing that she truly loved Sully, but was also accustomed to men going back on their word. His promise to never be so stupid and try to make her play or feel small essentially made it possible for his proposal to be enthusiastically accepted by Natasha right after he promised her.
The worries plaguing Natasha that Sully didnt know about fully mirrored a Greys Anatomy season 10 story that completely degenerated by season 11, almost destroying Meredith and Dereks relationship right before Dereks death. Indeed, by Greys Anatomy season 10, Derek had promised to take a step back in his career to focus on his and Merediths family so that she could have her moment to shine and progress her career. However, his brain sensors research with Callie and his presidential brain mapping initiative made Derek go back on his word, causing him to put his career first once again.
Before accepting, Derek refused the US presidents offer twice despite not wanting to, choosing his family only because he had promised Meredith. In return, this made Derek take out his anger on Meredith and those closest to him, making them miserable because he resented Meredith as she refused to stall her career to follow him. This fight continued from Greys Anatomy season 10 to 11, and it would have destroyed them had Derek not died. With Natashas worries revolving around Meredith and Dereks central problem in Greys Anatomy seasons 10 and 11, Station 19 season 7 essentially reversed their story.
The power disparity between Meredith and Derek was often at the center of their story, but they never explicitly considered that issues practicalities before season 10, with Greys Anatomy instead focusing on their unyielding love. Sully learning the prerequisite for which Natasha would consider marriage thus makes her priorities evident, making the problem that arose between Meredith and Derek much more unlikely to appear between them. By clarifying that love wasnt necessarily enough, also needing a clear and explicit understanding of their priorities, Station 19 season 7 made Sully and Natashas relationship have a firmer start than Meredith and Dereks.

Grey’s Anatomy: Jo Is ‘Spiraling’ from Pregnancy News (Exclusive) – PEOPLE
Jo Wilson (Camilla Luddington) may not be quite ready to add another baby to her brood.
In PEOPLE's exclusive preview of the April 11 episode of Grey's Anatomy, Jo frets over the possibility that she is expecting a baby with boyfriend Atticus "Link" Lincoln (Chris Carmack) as they already have their plates full with her daughter Luna and his and Amelia Shepherds (Caterina Scorsone) son, Scout.
This is the worst time to consider having a baby. It never stops, she tells Link as she searches for a pregnancy test at the hospital. My written exams are coming up and Lunas starting preschool.
ABC
If their busy schedules werent enough, she soon panics that another baby equals more dirty diapers. Oh my god, the diapers," she notes. "Do you know how many diapers we would need if we had three kids who weren't potty trained?
Try not to panic. This could be nothing, Link reassures her, but she adds, Six diapers a day per kid, that's like, a thousand diapers a week.
Link realizes her math isnt adding up and tells her, Not even close.
How could this happen? Jo asks. I'm an OB-GYN, half my job is to have women not get pregnant.
ABC
Once she finds the pregnancy test, Link tells her that she is spiraling out of control and she counters, How are you not?!"
The pregnancy scare comes after Link supported her when she felt guilty about her happiness following Sam Suttons (Sam Page) death. He reminded her that she had experienced a lifetime of hard and was deserving of their long-awaited life together.
Every time I saw you go through something awful, it broke my heart because you are the fiercest, kindest, smartest, most loyal person, he said. Those years when we werent in each others lives, those were dark years and I thought of you every single day. So weve been through too much together and apart. You deserve this. We deserve this.

When she asked what happened if they didn't work out, he responded, Oh, were going to work out. I just wasted 20 years of my life not acting on it."

Why Sandra Oh Doesn’t Plan to Return to ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ ‘Anytime Soon’ – PEOPLE
Sandra Oh has no immediate plans to return to Grey Sloan Memorial hospital.
At the Los Angeles premiere of her new HBO series The Sympathizer on Tuesday, April 9, the 52-year-old actress opened up about the possibility of returning to Grey's Anatomy after departing the hit ABC medical drama a decade ago.
"I love that, I love that people are still [fans]," she told Entertainment Tonight of viewers wanting her to reprise her role as fan-favorite Cristina Yang."I love that you asked me that, because Cristina Yang is, of course, near and dear to my heart. [But] I will say, not anytime soon, my love."
Oh shared that she hopes fans feel like I did my job, which is that I brought to life a character and she had a growth over 10 seasons, and that it was true.
"She was ready to move on, and so have I," she added of playing Cristina for 10 seasons.
Last month, Kevin McKidd told PEOPLE that he thinks Christina and his character Owen Hunt have unfinished business and he would like to see her return to the series after exiting in 2013.
I was just talking about it the other night, I was like, I feel like we should try and get Cristina to come back, he shared of his former onscreen wife. And maybe it's something to do with some heart transplant or something that she has to show up or I don't know.

McKidd believed a conversation between the former couple would be complicated because there's such a love between Cristina and Owen, and when they said goodbye to each other, they didn't really get a proper goodbye with each other. It was kind of left hanging.
Cristina was up there in the gallery and Owen was stuck in the OR, they literally just nodded at each other and she had to leave, he added. So I think there's a lot of history there they would have to talk about.
Along with many Greys Anatomy fans, the Rome alum questioned what Cristina would be doing now.
I wonder, is she married now? Does she have a husband?" he asked. "I don't think so. I think she's still on this single-minded track and Owen's happily married with Teddy now but there's all that history between him and Cristina.
Craig Sjodin/Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty
I think it would be an amazing episode, maybe Owen has to travel somewhere, and here's Cristina at some conference, he suggested. I don't know, but I think it would be really great television.
Oh previously shut down the possibility of reprising her role on Greys Anatomy in 2021, explaining on the Los Angeles Times' Asian Enough podcast that she's "moved on."
"It's very rare, I would say, to be able to see in such a way the impact of a character. In some ways, you do your work as a bubble and you let it go," she explained. "I left that show, my God, seven years ago almost. So in my mind, it's gone. But for a lot of people, it's still very much alive. And while I understand and I love it, I have moved on."
"I love it, though," she added. "And this is also why I really appreciate the show that I still get asked this."

Grey’s Anatomy Confirms A Fatal Flaw In Meredith’s Story After 20 Seasons – Screen Rant
Spoilers are ahead for Grey's Anatomy season 20, episode 5.
Grey's Anatomy season 20, episode 5 confirms a fatal flaw in Meredith Grey's (Ellen Pompeo) story and it has nothing to do with the surgeon's groundbreaking Alzheimer's research. In fact, the problem at hand has been apparent for the series' last decade, but it seems like Pompeo's decreased screentime has emphasized the long-standing Meredith Grey problem. When the Shonda Rhimes-created show premiered in 2005, it opened with then-surgical intern Meredith Grey and her supposed one-night stand. A few scenes later, Meredith realizes her fling is none other than neurosurgeon Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey), her superior.
For a few seasons, Meredith and Derek were Grey's Anatomy 's most stable pair...
For several seasons, Meredith and Derek's fraught romance defined the show's narrative. Derek, who Meredith and her best friend Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh) dub "McDreamy," is initially getting out of an on-the-rocks marriage. Meredith tells Derek to choose her and, eventually, he does, but it certainly takes awhile for the two surgeons to get on the same page, as evidenced by Meredith and Derek's wild relationship timeline. For a few seasons, Meredith and Derek were Grey's Anatomy's most stable pair, but things took a turn in season 10, and that fallout is still defining Meredith Grey's love life.
Grey's Anatomy season 20 continues Meredith's relationship with Nick Marsh (Scott Speedman), a world-class transplant surgeon who previously worked with Meredith during her brief stint at Minnesota's Mayo Clinic. After receiving a kidney transplant himself, Nick flies out to Grey Sloan to retrieve donor organs. After Nick collapses, his medical mishap creates something of a bonding experience for him and Meredith. Later, the pair reconnect, which leads to a long-distance romance of sorts as Meredith shuffles between Mayo and Grey Sloan. Slowly but surely, Meredith realizes her relationship with Nick is serious, so he relocates to Seattle.
Nick takes [Meredith's harsh words] as a sign of her distrust in his abilities as a doctor, caretaker, and partner.
As Nick takes on Grey Sloan's intern program in season 19, Meredith seems ready to move across the country to pursue Alzheimer's research for the Catherine Fox Foundation. Understandably, Nick is frustrated: He uprooted his life for Meredith and her family. In Grey's Anatomy season 19's ending, Nick and Meredith reconnect, though Meredith still makes choices that disappoint Nick. In season 20, Meredith travels between Seattle and Boston on the regular, leaving Nick in Boston with her children Zola, Bailey, and Ellis. By episode 5, their fraught relationship dynamic comes to a head when Bailey needs an appendectomy.
Instead of calling Meredith immediately, Nick takes Bailey to the hospital, leaving Zola in charge of Ellis. While on the phone with her eldest daughter, Meredith learns that Nick rushed Bailey to surgery. After flying to Boston, Meredith cuts Nick off at every turn. She can't believe he'd make decisions about her kids without calling her first, which Nick takes as a sign of her distrust in his abilities as a doctor, caretaker, and partner. By the end of Grey's Anatomy season 20, episode 5, Meredith apologizes for her harsh words, but it's clear the couple's relationship is strained.
Nick is like a father to his niece, Charlotte Marsh, who he initially prioritizes over Meredith.
Meredith's troubled relationship with Nick is symptomatic of a larger problem in the surgeon's love life. Since Derek was killed in Grey's Anatomy season 11, Meredith has struggled to find a functional long-term relationship. From casual flirtations with Atticus "Link" Lincoln (Chris Carmack) and Cormac Hayes (Richard Flood) to her passionate-yet-tragic romance with Andrew DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti), none of Meredith's post-Derek relationships have stuck. Before Nick, cardio surgeon Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) seemed like a good fit, but the pair's relationship ended suddenly when Riggs' presumed-dead partner Megan Hunt (Abigail Spencer), returned.

When Cristina Yang leaves Grey's Anatomy in season 10, she reminds Meredith that Derek isn't "the sun." Meredith's life doesn't have to revolve around Derek's ambitions, and hers should be equally important. It's a conversation that plagued Meredith and Derek's marriage for the bulk of season 10, with Meredith admitting that they'll always fall into the intern-attending dynamic of when they first met. Cristina's parting words strengthen Meredith's resolve; when Derek is offered a high-powered, cutting-edge neuro job in Washington D.C., Meredith tells him to take it, though she'll stay behind in Seattle with the kids.
Meredith's issues with Derek are a continual deal-breaker.
Meredith doesn't want to hold Derek back, but she also can't sacrifice her own wants, needs, and career. She can't live with him denying his own ambitions and then quietly resenting her for it. Clearly, Meredith's issues with Derek are a continual deal-breaker. The surgeon is proud of her work and her research; if prioritizing her partner's goals means taking away from her own, Meredith won't compromise. While Meredith and Nick might have worked when things were less serious when things were easy and fun season 20 proves they aren't a solid endgame.
With Ellen Pompeo's role on Grey's Anatomy significantly reduced, it feels unnecessary to prioritize Meredith's love life, especially when her groundbreaking (and very personal) Alzheimer's research is the more significant thread. In season 20, Meredith pulls Derek's sister, neuro surgeon Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), into her research, setting up a clear-cut reason for Pompeo's guest appearances. If anything, Meredith's romantic tribulations cement the fact that romance will never eclipse her work. Clearly, the series wants to give Meredith a "happy ending," so it should embrace her success as a single person, mother, and surgeon in Grey's Anatomy season 21.
New episodes of Grey's Anatomy season 20 air on Thursdays on ABC with next-day streaming available via Hulu.
Grey's Anatomy is considered one of the great television shows of our time, winning several awards and four Emmys. The high-intensity medical drama follows Meredith Grey and the team of doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial, who are faced with life-or-death decisions on a daily basis. They seek comfort from one another, and, at times, more than just friendship. Together they discover that neither medicine nor relationships can be defined in black and white.

Why Did Sarah Drew Leave Grey’s Anatomy? – CBR – Comic Book Resources
Summary
ABC's long-running medical drama Grey's Anatomy has lost many characters over the years. While some of them have been written out in heartbreaking storylines like Derek Shepherd's devastating death that saw Patrick Dempsey leave the series, or T.R. Knight's George O'Malley being involved in a tragic accident others have been sent off for more complicated and sometimes off-screen reasons. Those departures often sting just as much.
Sarah Drew played Dr. April Kepner for almost 10 seasons before she was one of the actors written out of Grey's Anatomy for a surprising reason. While it was a relief that Kepner wasn't killed off like some of her predecessors, the news of Drew's departure was very upsetting to many fans, who'd come to love her character. So what exactly happened that caused the series to let April and Drew go?
Updated on April 12, 2024 by Katie Doll: When she was first introduced, April Kepner was hardly a fan-favorite among fans. Some people found it irritating to try to sympathize with her, considering she made grave mistakes that proved she didn't deserve a spot in the prestigious residency program. However, April showed strength as a person who's willing to own up to her mistakes and learn from them. She quickly became a favorite among viewers who saw themselves as the underdogs trying to stick to their moral values. This article has been updated to expand more on April's storyline toward the end of her run on Grey's Anatomy and the projects Sarah Drew's taken on since her departure.
First Appearance
Season 6, Episode 5, "Invasion"
Last Appearance (as main cast)
Season 14, Episode 24, "All of Me"
Last Appearance (as guest star)
Season 18, Episode 20, "You Are the Blood"
April Kepner made her series debut in Season 6, Episode 5, "Invasion" as a Mercy West resident who joined Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital after the merger between the two hospitals. April was quickly fired after failing to check in a patient's airway after a fire and that mistake led to the patient's death. However, Derek (who was almost played by Rob Lowe) rehired April when he became the new Chief of Surgery, and she consequently developed a crush on him.
But that crush ended when she developed a relationship with Jackson Avery. However, the pair weren't a perfect match due to their differing beliefs in religion. April was a devout Christian saving herself for marriage, a motive that most of her peers mocked her for, and Jackson was an atheist. Although they made it work for some time, they ultimately broke up after losing her virginity to him and failing her board exams. She then begins a relationship with a paramedic named Matthew, who seemed like the perfect match for her in their mutual bubbly personalities and faith.
April and Jackson's up-and-down relationship culminated with him professing his love during her wedding ceremony to Matthew. The pair soon got married after themselves and April later became pregnant with their first child, Samuel. However, the newborn baby died shortly after birth due to his Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type 2 diagnosis. Their child's death put a strain on their marriage and led to April's employment as a trauma surgeon overseas. When April returned, she and Jackson filed for divorce, just before April discovered she was pregnant with their second child, Harriet.
Later, April was deeply saddened about three patients' deaths and struggled with her Christian faith. After losing a patient, she began to believe that only good people die and bad people are rewarded. When Arizona Robbins (played by the recently returned Jessica Capshaw) blamed April for the death of Matthew's pregnant wife, she started making dangerous lifestyle changes to cover up her mental health issues. She earned the nickname "The Party" for her self-destructive party-going habits and using sex as a coping mechanism. She put these habits aside when she met a terminally ill patient who helped her find faith again.
April reunited with her former fiance Matthew after getting back to her normal self, but things weren't looking up for April. The two get into a car accident where April almost dies of hypothermia, due to nobody finding them immediately. But her "rebirth" perfectly encapsulates her struggle with faith for the last two seasons Jackson prays for April, despite not believing in God, and April wakes up. Perhaps good people do receive good things. April and Matthew then married in the Season 14 finale. She subsequently resigned from the hospital and began providing medical care to communities stricken with homelessness.
While many actors left the show to seek out new and exciting roles including Jesse Williams, who played Drew's on-screen love interest Jackson Avery Sarah Drew's exit from Grey's Anatomy wasn't her decision. In a 2018 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Drew recounted how she was told the show "needed to downsize" to accommodate the countless cast members. She was subsequently terminated as a result along with Jessica Capshaw, who portrayed Dr. Arizona Robbins.
However, she returned in Season 17 when Williams departed the show. April was revealed to have separated from Matthew and moved to Boston with Jackson to lead the Catherine Fox Foundation with their daughter. But the show wasn't over yet for April and Jackson. The now reconciled couple returned again in the Season 18 finale, which was the series' 400th episode. They were in Seattle to help the residency program, which was at great risk of being shut down, since Jackson's the head of the Catherine Fox Foundation.
There was also a secret kiss in the elevator, which every iconic Grey's Anatomy couple must do in order to romantically flourish. But since then, Jackson and April have moved on to better things beyond Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Since Grey's Anatomy gave Jackson and April their happy ending and both are still alive, there's no reason that Dr. April Kepner couldn't make another guest appearance in the future.
Drew's departure from Grey's Anatomy obviously wasn't her decision, but the actor has done well for herself since saying goodbye to the medical drama. She's starred in a number of Lifetime and Hallmark television films, even acting as executive producer for two of them: How She Caught a Killer and Reindeer Games Homecoming. The latter of which she also wrote the screenplay for.
The most popular projects Drew's starred in since Grey's Anatomy have been the television shows Cruel Summer and Amber Brown. In the former, she portrayed Cindy Turner, the mother of one of the main characters in Season 1. Amber Brown is a family television series based on the book of the same name, which was released on Apple TV+ in 2022. Drew portrays the mother of a young girl dealing with the divorce of her parents.
Grey's Anatomy is available to stream on Hulu and Netflix. New episodes air every Thursday at 9 P.M. ET on ABC.
A drama centered on the personal and professional lives of five surgical interns and their supervisors.

Grey’s Anatomy Season 20, Episode 5 Recap: 6 Biggest Story Reveals – Screen Rant
Warning! This article contains spoilers for Grey's Anatomy season 20, episode 5.
This article contains discussion of mental health and suicide.
Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 marked the official halfway point of the season. Following the writers and actors strikes, Greys Anatomy season 20 was given an abridged 10-episode order, a big shift from its past seasons that typically consisted of 20 or more episodes. In the final five episodes of the season, viewers can expect one final crossover between Greys Anatomy and Station 19 before the firefighter spinoff show ends. Fortunately, the Greys Anatomy season 21 renewal means viewers have many more episodes to look forward to following the shortened season 20.
In Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5, Meredith made another return while the doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital dealt with a major accident involving medical students. The Greys Anatomy episode followed its typical formula that requires the story to find a balance between the patients and cases and the doctors personal lives. While this episode was more patient and case-oriented in some respects, the cases themselves allowed viewers to learn more about the doctors. Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 also addressed important mental health issues, potentially opening the door for more serious storylines.
After seasons of will they/wont they, Jo and Link finally got together at the end of Greys Anatomy season 19. Since then, their relationship has only grown stronger. However, an innocent conversation threatened to ruin their honeymoon phase when Jo realized her period was late. Though they are both parents already, the possibility of Jo being pregnant forced them to consider whether they were ready to have a baby together.
Jo panicked over the possibility of being pregnant in Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5, reminding Link that they already had two babies at home still in diapersScout, whom Link had with Amelia, and Jos adopted daughter Luna. Meanwhile, Link tried to be supportive, reminding Jo that she had options if she was pregnant and that whatever happened, they were in it together. After one test had an inconclusive result, another revealed Jo was not pregnant, causing even more mixed feelings for the couple.
While Link was relieved at the negative result, Jo felt confused by her own lack of relief. Towards the end of Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5, Jo confessed to Link that she did want to have a baby with him eventually, preferably when Luna was a bit older. Link told Jo that he could want a baby with her as well, he just needed more time to get used to the idea. While Jo and Link likely arent having a baby anytime soon in Greys Anatomy, its a storyline that can be revisited, especially with the medical dramas astounding longevity.
After appearing in the first three episodes of Greys Anatomy season 20, Meredith was missing in episode 4, only to make another appearance in episode 5. Though Ellen Pompeo is no longer a Greys Anatomy series regular, with Meredith leaving Seattle for Boston in the season 19 winter finale, she has appeared in multiple episodes since then. While Greys Anatomy has proved it can survive without Meredith, she is never more than a phone call away.
Greys Anatomy season 20 set her up for a larger role for Meredith than may have been expected due to her new Alzheimers research with Amelia. When it was first proposed, Meredith told Amelia they could work together from their opposite coasts, but in Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 4, Teddy gave them funding from the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital discretionary fund. This gave Meredith even more excuses to return to Seattle, which is where she was at the start of Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 before a call from Nick had her flying back to Boston.
While Meredith was in Seattle, Nick was watching her three children. When her son, Bailey, started showing signs of early appendicitis, Nick took him to the hospital. Nick eventually called Meredith, but Meredith was upset that hed taken Bailey to the hospital without telling her. Meredith was harsh on Nick, and she confessed to Richard this was partially because her son being in the hospital reminded her of when Derek was in the hospital before his tragic and untimely death.
Nick and Meredith eventually made up, with Meredith apologizing for her behavior. Nick isnt Merediths first boyfriend since Derek died, but he appears to be her most serious relationship since. With Nick having moved to Boston for Meredith, he has taken on more of a co-parenting role with her, something Meredith is still getting used to in Greys Anatomy.
After Winston didnt follow Maggie to Chicago, the Greys Anatomy season 19 finale saw some hope for the couple when they agreed to try and make their marriage work long distance. However, Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 3 revealed that Maggie wasnt keeping up on her end of the promise by constantly canceling on Winston at the last minute whenever he planned trips to visit her in Chicago. Winston took off his wedding ring at the end of that episode, but it wasnt until Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 that it was confirmed they were getting a divorce.
Early in Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5, Winston was immediately put into a bad mood when he was served with divorce papers. Though it hadnt been revealed yet that they were divorce papers, his reaction and lack of a wedding ring made it pretty clear. Their marriage was already over by the time Maggie sent the papers, but it didnt make it any easier for Winston, who had been fighting to save their relationship for the past season.
After taking his anger out on a patient, Jules boldly confronted her attending, which eventually led him to change his behavior. Towards the end of Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5, Amelia checked in on Winston, knowing Maggie had sent the papers. With Amelia still recovering from her breakup with Kai and Winston now getting divorced, Greys Anatomy season 20 should continue to explore their growing friendship.
Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 featured a major trauma that caused a group of medical students to become patients at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. The students had been at a party following their white coat ceremony, an event that celebrates the beginning of their time in medical school, when the second-floor deck collapsed, leading to a variety of injuries. Most of the patients were drunk and rowdy, while a student named Eddie was relatively calm.
Eddie had a simple dislocated shoulder, and after a long shift, Bailey told Simone, who had taken care of him, to go home and pass him off to Kwan. However, just before she was about to leave, she realized Eddie was missing. Assuming he was drunk like most of the other students and had just wandered off, the two interns went looking for him, eventually finding him on the roof, standing dangerously close to the ledge.
Simone realized that Eddie was completely sober and while he told them he wasnt sure if he came to the roof intending to hurt himself, he was ready to let the wind decide. Ben, who had been visiting Bailey and had mental health training through Station 19s Crisis One program, told Kwan that if they could keep Eddie talking, they could save his life. Eddie threw his white coat off the roof, confessing that he didnt feel like he deserved it. With all the pressure and pain of medical school, Eddie worried that he might not be cut out to be a doctor.
Kwan reassured Eddie that he wasnt alone in feeling that way, referencing the Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 title, Never Felt So Alone. In a rare moment of vulnerability, Kwan admitted to Eddie that he too still doesn't feel like a doctor, but he's still here. Fortunately, Eddie got off the ledge safely due to Kwan and Simones help. With Kwans confession, Greys Anatomy season 20 could and should continue to explore the mental health of the doctors and the interns in particular.
Another couple who received a good amount of screentime in Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 was Yasuda and Helm. The episode began with Helm, now co-chief resident, helping Yasuda study. As the only intern to have completed her procedure log, Yasuda was left waiting for everyone else in her class to finish their logs so she could return to the operating room.
The biggest case of the episode revolved around a medical student named Sophia who came to Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital with a wooden railing in her back that caused her to lose feeling in her right leg. Lucas was put on the case with Owen and Amelia as the attendings. Lucas formed a bond with Sophia, who told him how badly she wanted to become a doctor. With Lucas and Owens insistence and support, Amelia performed a riskier surgery on her, saving her spine.
Meanwhile, Yasuda was left to deal with all the drunken medical students in the emergency room and was even puked on by one of them. Helm had led Yasuda to assume that shed tried to get her on Sophias case, but Schmitt told Yasuda that was the opposite of the truth. Schmitt had wanted to put Yasuda on the case, but Helm overruled him. Yasuda told Jules she felt betrayed by Helm, which could spell trouble for the couple in upcoming Greys Anatomy episodes.
Things have been rocky between Simone and Lucas in Greys Anatomy season 20 following Simones failed wedding and their hookup. Unable to deny their feelings, they perhaps got together too quickly, further complicating things. Just when it seemed like Simone and Lucas' relationship might be on the right track, their attempted surgery on Sam in the Greys Anatomy season 19 finale once again caused some issues between them.
After being on and off, Simone ended their relationship in Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 3, claiming she had to put herself first. Lucas then called her out, saying she was selfish and had always put herself first in their relationship, playing with his feelings. Since then, things have been tense and awkward between the interns, but Greys Anatomy season 20, episode 5 offered a glimmer of hope for Simone and Lucas when they took a nap in an on-call room together.

Where To Watch Grey's Anatomy
Grey's Anatomy is considered one of the great television shows of our time, winning several awards and four Emmys. The high-intensity medical drama follows Meredith Grey and the team of doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial, who are faced with life-or-death decisions on a daily basis. They seek comfort from one another, and, at times, more than just friendship. Together they discover that neither medicine nor relationships can be defined in black and white.

Not sure about you, but
This week, Rhimes shared some photos from the set of Greys, where she and Chandra Wilson (better known as the badass Dr. Miranda Bailey), Alexis Floyd (who plays new intern Simone Griffith), the legendary director/producer/actress/all-around phenom Debbie Allen, and new showrunner Meg Marinis are all positively beaming with pride and elation.
And why wouldnt they be? Theyd just made history: Greys is now the longest-running show in ABC history, and going into season 21, its also the longest-running prime-time medical drama on TV ever too. Talk about a flex!
Catch the 20th season of Grey's Anatomy on Thursdays on ABC, or stream episodes on Hulu.
