crash part 1
so what did you think of grey's episode last night?
i'm glad ava is back. i'm mad alex is two-timing. i want ava and alex to work out - lexie is too young, somehow, to meet alex's needs (and him vice versa). but ava is married! ava has a kid! how can this work out?
mer/der/rose. man. rose started being clearer as a character to me in this episode - i thought it was interesting that she said the exact thing derek felt about mer (about their respective exes not knowing what they wanted in life) because that was such a deep connection point for derek. you could see it in his face. it's kind of funny - i think he's so used to being with women whose needs he cannot meet (addy) or who cannot meet his needs (mer) that he is at a complete loss with rose. what to do with someone who is at the same point you are? he doesn't know what to do yet, but he knows there's potential there. the connections they've made - through the smiles, the licorice, the common problem with the exes - make it seem easy. hopefully, too easy. MUCH too easy. run back to mer, derek! run!
i love meredith in this episode. the realization that she has parts in everyone's story, that that is their perspective and she allows that to define her - and her ability to verbalize that to the chief, who then tells her - that's the job. you know who you really are. don't let the job define you. mer needed to hear that. she takes the blows of the job to heart. you could see that at the ferry accident - she was overwhelmed, battered with the enormity of it all, and in the end - it was too much. she couldn't take it. so she chose to let go. (except derek didn't let her go. thank god. then the show would be over).
it happens to her again with the ambulance crash, you can see the enormity - and yet this time she does the thing she couldn't before, she spoke. she talked. she reached out. and thank god she reached out to someone who had lived enough and was wise enough to say to her - no, mer, there is more to this than that. you are here to help. you can help. you are powerful in your knowledge and abilities. use them, but don't let the enormity of the job swallow who you are.
oh mark and hahn. they're great.
what do you think about gizzie? personally i think it's one of the weirdest storylines this show has to offer for The Couples. it just isn't jiving. it's not humourous for me - i think because it feels so contrived, oh they don't have any chemistry. they totally have chemistry. we've all seen it. so if there's "lack of chemistry" for the sake of getting a few laughs, it ain't workin'. FIX IT SHONDA!
