So she lived. Which we mostly knew she would, right? I didn't guess that Ellis would die though, and as for the rest of it, well...the show was pretty light on other subplots. They were there, but they were less meaty. I'm sure that the episodes after this will be subplot-laden, however, since they won't include Meredith-in-purgatory scenes. I have to admit, though, that I loved the return of Denny, since I adored Denny. I also really enjoy the Izzie/George thing, because I love that it's showing the depth of friendship that is possible between a man and a woman, though I think it's sort of sad (but also sadly realistic) that Izzie is being the cliched friend who thinks her male friend picked the wrong woman. Speaking of friendships, I'm on the fence about Mer and Christina's friendship, because on the one hand, it's wonderful to see two women in such a close, loving relationship. Christina's worry for Mer was touching and lovely, but I wish that the two women talked about something than men, just once in a while. I don't know that they've had a moment without men yet--though I can't recall every single conversation they've had.
Otherwise, I shouldn't be allowed to watch Grey's, because it makes me weepy and scared all at once. It really brings mortality home, and makes me scared to lose S. As sad as it is, I am deathly afraid that every time S walks out the door, it will be the last time I see him. It's irrational and weird, but it is what it is. I'm just afraid. And Grey's makes me more afraid, because it seems like someone's always in danger of losing someone they love.
(Look, I'm not going to discuss this fear of mortality any further because I could spend paragraphs talking about it and nothing will make it go away. I don't wish to discuss it further. Like I said, it is what it is.)
