Ben’s Fateful Move
When last we visited Grey Sloan, a heatwave had descended on Seattle. Ben, tasked with handling E.R. overflow, made a decision that left two of his colleagues in grave danger. Which two? Read on.
Jo and Lucas’ Dire Straits
Ben sent Wilson and Adams to a nearby convenience store to pick up ice with which they could cool down patients. But as luck would have it — bad luck — they were involved in a robbery that made it look as if Lucas had been shot.
Simone’s Grave Concern
Needless to say, Simone is going to be beside herself with worry for Lucas. Not long before the series took its winter break, the two of them had dropped the L word on one another.
Baby’s First Trauma
Previews for the midseason premiere feature Jo being wheeled into the hospital in distress. But the show wouldn’t really kill her and Link’s unborn twins… would it?
Jules’ Broken Heart
Grieving the loss of her sister, Mika turned to Jules for sexual healing. Yasuda couldn’t shake the feeling that Chloe was all around, though, and ultimately quit the hospital, leaving her would-be girlfriend high and dry.
Richard’s Outrage
With all signs pointing to Catherine’s condition deteriorating, she swore Meredith (and then Bailey) to secrecy about her treatment. So when Richard found out he’d been kept in the dark, the only color he saw was red.
Meredith’s Miraculous Feat
We were shocked that Mer actually managed not to spill the beans about Catherine. And though Richard was ticked, the move did get all of Grey’s friends rehired after Catherine’s firing spree.
Winston’s Devastating Prognosis
Maggie’s ex got a pass from Skye, a woman he’d ghosted — provided he and Amelia saved her daughter, Jackie. But as the fall finale concluded, the patient was left without a heartbeat.
Blue’s New Lease on Love
Out of nowhere, Blue’s amnesiac ex-fiancée Molly showed up at the hospital and revealed that her boyfriend has proposed. We’re thinking the answer’s ultimately gonna be no, considering Blue and Molly wound up kissing.
Owen’s Kneejerk Reaction
Though Cass cleared the air with Owen after her and Teddy’s kiss, he was so unnerved by the women’s friendship that we sure suspected he was gonna give childhood friend Nora more than a lift when they left together.
That’s Schmitt for Levi
In the episode prior to the midseason finale, the erstwhile Glasses left for a new job in Texas with new boyfriend James in tow. Levi did, however, promise Jo that he’d be back for the birth of his godbabies.
Amelia and Monica’s Really Slow Burn
The docs like each other, and we all expect them to get together, but as of the fall finale, they hadn’t so much as kissed. Maybe we’re shipping a couple that’s never gonna be one? What do you think? Hit the comments.
