Seriously, thank God it's Friday, y'all. Time for some highs and lows...
Lindy-High: We have three this week (Right? We can hardly believe it either). First, Meredith and George sorting through the new intern drama in a semi-amusing meta-narrative jab at the first two seasons. The best line of the episode for us was when Meredith told the interns off, and stormed out with George on her heels muttering, "That was very Bailey." Ha. We enjoyed that. Second, first Callie and then Dr. Hunt getting sucked into Derek's vortex of despair, drinking canned beers out of a cooler. Finally, the tender moment between the elderly orchid lady and the guy a hole in his face: "Please, don't call my dear friend ugly. You're a survivor." OMG, we teared up a little bit.
Olivia-High: Christina’s on-going quest to be the best character on this show. Her subtle crisis of conscience over what to do about Izzie’s brain cancer sitch was well-written and delivered. Were whiny Meredith in the same position, she would have slobbered and blubbered all over the situation, but good old Christina sucked it up and did what she had to do, all the while spouting hilariously perfect lines of sensible dialogue. Now if she and Hunt could just have at least a scene or two together, that power couple could take over this damn show.
And, Callie’s leather jacket. Really. It was great. It fit perfectly.
Lindy-Low: This scene...
We feel irritated. We do. We've grown to despise Izzie for so many reasons, but Christina's willingness to get on board and join the fight for Izzie's life has us rooting for her recovery in spite of ourselves. Sigh. We'll never be free of Izzie.
Olivia-Low: Little Lexopedia Grey openly macking on Dr. Gorgeous Sloan in the middle of the hospital (tongue fully lodged on the man’s tonsils) and then spewing some annoying “they think we’re ugly but I know we are beautiful,” crap. What? When did Seattle Grace become a Kelly Clarkson song? When???
