We wont talk about it anymore because tonight its all about their glorious friendship.
Jo has finally decided to come back to work, and Alex is worried about it.
She looks worn down and is surly and immediately retreats to her lab.
Alex still has no idea whats going on with her.
He feels completely helpless.
In a truly heartbreaking scene for any longtimeGreysfan, Alex tells Mer that this all feels too familiar.
It happened with Izzie.
With Lexie (I mean, this one was more complicated but, okay).
Its what happened with his mom.
In the moment, Meredith assures her friend that this isnt the same situation.
Jos been through worse, and shell get through this.
She also reminds him that when Mer needs space, he gives it to her.
He needs to do the same for Jo.
So it sounds like Meredith is telling Alex to just wait it out.
Have you met Meredith Grey, ruiner of Alzheimers trials?
But Meredith also isnt going to embarrass Alex or Jo in the process.
Shes not going to cause any additional drama (this show loves drama, its heroine does not).
Meredith Grey is very stealth, you guys.
Its Jackson who shows up to Jos lab looking for a little assistance with his spray-on-skin project.
Jo thinks that Alex must have sent him, but as Jackson reveals later, it was actually Meredith.
Meredith sent Jackson to help Jo to make it help Alex.
In a rather dull episode, I wasmoved.
Of course, Jackson cant help the situation much.
She especially doesnt want to open up once he calls her out for being drunk at work.
That water bottle shes been carrying around all episode?
Its full of vodka.
If you thought Jo was spiraling before, this is a new low.
Alex comes home to find her still drinking and is furious.
Hes over her pushing him away.
If he loves her, hed leave her alone, she says, but that doesnt fly with Alex.
Were not playing that game anymore, he yells.
He even threatens to go to Pittsburgh and find out what happened for himself.
If he ever makes a threat like that again, she tells him, she will leave him.
Alex has his own ultimatum: If she shows up to work drunk again, hell tell Bailey.
Maybe I just have a soft spot for Alex, but I really feel for him here.
His wife is in pain and is being self-destructive, and he cant do anything about it.
At this point, what will shake Jo out of this?
Okay, now Im the one whos scared.
Tragedy is going around Grey Sloan tonight!
Nico will inject cement into the vertebrae of a healthy 21-year-old guy named Josh for stabilize a compression fracture.
Whenever a doctor is that sure of himself, you know somethings going wrong.
When they open Josh up, they find that some cement has leaked due to a mistake Nico made.
He suffers a massive pulmonary-artery embolism and not even Maggie Pierce can save his life.
But instead of admitting how upset he is, Nico lashes out at Schmitt.
Schmitts used to failure because its all he does, but Nicos not.
He wont let this derail him or his dreams of an excellent ortho program.
What is up with all these awful relationship fights tonight?
At least Webber has a story with a bright spot.
This patient is Gemma (hi, Jasmine Guy!
Shes embarrassed and angry and wants nothing to do with Richard.
But Richard, who knows how it feels to be lost without Ollie, wont give up so easily.
When Maggies called away to handle Nicos emergency, Richard steps in and performs the surgery on Gemma.
When she wakes up, she isnt thrilled.
See what I mean?
They are so happy and flirty, isnt it nice to see Mer like this?
Meredith even tells her kids about DeLuca!
Thats a huge step!
No longer the sad man on the couch, but Mommys boyfriend.
Just dont be Bailey about it.
Wrong advice, Karev.
If anything, Bailey being Bailey about things is what keeps this place running.
That blue room does miraculous things!
Is Owens therapist a genius?
The healing process has begun.
Hey, Doc, where were you in season five?
Toms about to inject stem cells into a paralyzed woman (remember Kari from the snowmobile accident?)
to give her the use of her arms back, so hes not scared by things deemed inevitable.
Sorry, Tommy, the inevitability of Teddy and Owen is beyond science.
Bless Avi and her I didnt know I was pregnant story line.
Not on this show!
Sorry Pop-Pop, your tragedy was written in theGreysstars.
