Grey's Anatomy

Grey’s Recap: Did History Repeat Itself in the Worst Possible Way?

We will soon get to hear the last about interns’ cursed logbooks on Grey’s Anatomy, as Thursday’s episode found Blue and Jules making a wager on which of them would complete their to-do list first. (Lucas, you may recall, got the job done last week.) In other developments, the past came crashing into the present for Simone, and Richard began to think that he was cramping Winston’s style. Read on for all the details…

‘THEY’RE INTERNS… THEY’RE ALWAYS IN TROUBLE’ | As “She Used to Be Mine” began, Simone and her family moved her grandma into an assisted-living home (cue the “mom”-eries), Mika’s beloved van Leona broke down, and Dorian learned that he was at last being sprung from the ICU. Arriving at Grey Sloan for the day, Teddy noted to Amelia that Owen had been distant lately. Had he said something to his ex? No, Amelia insisted as weirdly as possible. (Mmkaaay… ) Into the ER came Jillian and Cassandra, a couple who’d been in a fender bender when things got steamy during a, ahem, “parking” date. Turned out Jillian was married. D’oh. Soon enough, Jillian got fed up enough with “better half” Aaron that she screamed, “We’re having an affair” — and had been for the last two years. Curiously, her head didn’t hurt when she was yelling. Why? Side effect of a malformation brought on by whiplash, Amelia said. They’d operate that evening.

When Simone checked on a patient named Miles who’d come in with a broken wrist, she found that his pregnant wife Lauren was having contractions. Just Braxton-Hicks, the mom-to-be was sure. But Griffith sent her up to OB to be on the safe side. (Hello, foreshadowing.) In no time, Jo discovered that Lauren was going to be having her second baby sooner than later. But, erm, why did she have a bloody nose? And why was she suddenly having seizures? Ack! Time for a C-section, stat! Once Carina had gotten the baby out, more complications arose. It was “Page Bailey!”-level bad. When Simone entered the O.R., she was understandably shocked by what she saw. Lauren was bleeding a lot — and Griffith had just been telling Miles how well everything was going, too! Immediately, Bailey recruited Simone to help even though she hadn’t completed her logbook yet. To her credit, Griffith kept it together as a scenario unfolded that reminded her of her mother dying giving birth to her. (She even saw her mom in Lauren’s place at one point.) If only Simone hadn’t backed away from the operating table; the patient probably would have appreciated that, as dire as her situation was.

 

‘I JUST MADE IT WEIRD’ | When a pretty nurse tried flirting with Winston, he pressed pause. “She seems nice,” Richard noted. Which only made things more awkward. (Nothing like having your former father-in-law weighing in on your romantic prospects, eh?) Before we knew it, Winston had asked Teddy to scrub in with Maggie’s dad, presumably so that he didn’t have to. (Hilariously, she made Webber miss Winston even more by dumping her marital concerns and theories on him.) Afterwards, Richard told Winston that he’d come to love him like a son — and assured him that he didn’t have to avoid him. Go, date, have fun! But, um, that hadn’t been why Ndugu had had Altman scrub in, his other surgery had just run long. Oopsie.

No sooner had Dorian been moved into a regular room than he told Lucas and Schmitt that he thought his ostomy bag was leaking. It wasn’t that, though. It was bodily fluids, the docs discovered. Can that poor guy catch a break? Dang. He was going to need a restricted diet (if he ever got to eat again), another surgery and a return trip to the ICU. Upset, Lucas went off on Dorian’s friends. (If we were them, would any of us not have reported his ass? Love Niko Terho, but Adams makes me want to smack him upside the head.) Later, Lucas and Yasuda argued about his treatment of the duo — which seemed oddly normal to him. If you ask me, the interns dodged a bullet when Blue moved into Lucas’ room.

‘IT’S NOT SMUGNESS IF IT’S TRUE’ | Throughout the episode, Blue and Jules took turns upping the stakes of their bet. Drinks, then dinner, then wine pairings with dinner… ! Jules was so confident that she was going to win that she offered to have sex in a car with Blue (a la Jillian and Cassandra) if she lost. They both seemed pretty pleased that, in the end, that seemed to be in store for them. Meanwhile, Simone was a wreck after watching history repeat itself before her eyes, so she got drunk off her ass at Joe’s. When Bailey found her, she ordered Griffith to get up and leave with her. She should have said something to Jo, Simone reckoned. Because of her mother, she knew what the complication with Lauren might have been. “You did everything that we were taught today,” Miranda reassured her. “It is our job to make sure that no one overlooks our patients’ pain.”

 

As the hour drew to a close, Aaron opened up to Owen about how he and Jillian had stopped talking. He’d been afraid to push it, for fear of losing her, and now he had, anyway. Off that conversation, Hunt admitted to Teddy that he was scared of losing her. He felt like they were on autopilot, but he didn’t want to stress her out. “I miss you,” he said. “I miss us.” Her response? She locked her office door to remind him exactly what he had been missing. Jo and Simone reported to Miles that Lauren had been suffering from eclampsia. She lost a lot of blood but was hanging in there, at least for now. When Simone asked if Miles and Lauren had picked a name, the one she heard first was her own. To Jo’s horror, she realized that if she’d put a rush on Lauren’s lab tests, the patient wouldn’t have wound up in the dreadful predicament that she had. “I think I need to focus all my time on OB,” Wilson told Link. There had to have been something she hadn’t done right, something that she hadn’t asked. So it was bye-bye general surgery for her.
