I fear Derek sleep with the plant then Im not he can get back to being our MCDreamy

[kamygrey]

Hi everybody,

I decided to be optimistic and to be logical:
- When Derek returned with Addison, they didn't make love after a long time and when he slept with her, it was either bad or he imagined Meredith, or it was by pure revange (nb: when he saw her with Finn's Tshirt)
- From what we known of Derek,he's not seeking a physical relationship but commitment with a person.
Six weeks is not long for someone with Derek'standarts. While he slept with Meredith the same evening, but the circumstances were different, we all know that he is in love with Meredith, and it takes more than 6 weeks to move beyond sex with the plant.

Addison was his wife, he had/has more feelings for her than he has for the nurse and yet the sex was a chore for him.

With Shonda'statements, to put Derek and Meredith together and do this in a credible manner, if Derek sleep with the plant, the show is dead, all the declarations of love he has done to Meredith would be lies and Derek and Mer together would not be credible.

Objectively, in two months, Meredith saw Derek/Rose together in many moments and about the D/R sex, maybe Shonda won't show us it (maybe) but I don't think they had a "platonic" relationship like Meredith/Finn.
Like I wrote on spoilers thread, Shonda will shock me if Derek never slept with her after two months.

Shonda talked about a reunion in the season finale (probably in the last 20 seconds). A believable reunion is another thing. I want it for them. It's my hope.



About the therapist, if she's in all 5 episodes as part of the staff, perhaps other characters will see her, not only Meredith.

"Grey's Anatomy" (ABC, 8 p.m., April 24) Expect a Derek (Patrick Dempsey)-Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) love reunion. Kate Walsh's Addison is expected to return for one episode.

'Grey's Anatomy' Admits Amy Madigan 'Field of Dreams' actress to play Seattle Grace psychiatrist March 26, 2008 You could argue, convincingly, that no group of characters are more in need of a shrink more than the doctors on "Grey's Anatomy." They'll soon have one, in the form of Amy Madigan. The "Carnivale" and "Field of Dreams" actress has taken a recurring part on ABC's medical drama, which returns to the air on Thursday, April 24. She'll play a psychiatrist on the staff at Seattle Grace, according to The Hollywood Reporter. As with many things "Grey's"-related, other details about Madigan's role are hard to come by. We can only hope, though, that her character will help straighten out the very tangled psyches of Meredith (Ellen Pompeo), Derek (Patrick Dempsey), George (T.R. Knight) and the rest of the surgeons on the show. Madigan is a past Oscar (for 1985's "Twice in a Lifetime") and Emmy (for 1989's "Roe vs. Wade") nominee. She recently co-starred in "Gone Baby Gone" and did a two-part guest arc on CBS' "Criminal Minds" at the end of last season. Her other credits include "The Laramie Project," "Pollock" and the HBO film "A Bright Shining Lie."

Shonda said they will start two weeks after they left off, not two months. those where her words. so in 2 weeks not much could have happened for Rose and Derek.

Shonda said 6 weeks (a month an half, almost two months).


From new TV Guide

What's next: "When we come back, we'll have leapt ahead five or six weeks in time," creator Shonda Rimes says. "It's our way of acknowledging the bump [caused by strike]. But it'll be very clear from the first moment what has transpired. You'll see where things stand with Derek, Meredith, and Rose. You'll see where George is living, and in the first episode all of the residents will be involved in a high-stakes surgical contest---definitely not something the chief would condone"

double post. sorry!

Favorite TV Shows Return With Fanfare Networks Pull Out All The Stops To Entice Viewers Back To Their TV Sets [..] For other continuing dramas, the hiatus was a chance to regroup and rethink storylines. "The strike may have helped 'Grey's Anatomy' because they can retool a little bit," said Entertainment Weekly's Dalton Ross. "They've been told we want to see McDreamy and Meredith together. That wasn't the plan. It's the plan now."

You sure know how to ruin someone mood LOL
Well I'm not going to think about your comment, Shonda is unpredictable but I think she understood what the fans wanted, the kiss between Derek and the plant was poorly appreciated, a scene of sex or a sub-heard of a possible sexual relationship would be upsetting and the reunion between Derek and Meredith would be implausible.
GA function a lot with feelings and all the feelings and the love between MD which we have been flooded since the season 1 that would bull****.
Meredith and Finn had a "platonic" thing but I don't think Derek and the plant are more than that!

[Eternal Flame]

I honestly think we'll never know if he did or did not sleep with her.

thnx for the info Gio

From a new PD interview

What can we expect next on Grey's? Of course, I can't say too much. There will be more interesting medical stuff. It will be a little more intense but very funny. Lots of things get resolved, things start to move forward.

Patrick Dempsey gets our motors running - 03/29/2008 - MiamiHerald.com

He's not McDreamy for me anymore and i doubt he ever will be so something like that probably wont change my opinion

[Eternal Flame]

thnx for posting that Gio It doesn't really tell us much but its nice to hear people talk about upcoming eps IMO

[Bella Cullen]

There is sides out for 4.14, i think from what i read there is something about a harrasment complaint not sure if its a sexual one, coming up against two of the doctors...not sure if its against the guys or the girls cause no gender is specificated.

Just a little more info from TWoP:

And, all employees have to fill out a form stating past and current hospital relationships.

[Gio Gio]

From sides of ep.414.

There are 3 medical cases. Mr. Bamberger is changing from a hospital gown to clothes and is very angry. Dr.Lasher arrives and asks him what he’s doing and he says that he [Dr.Lasher] said that he would vaccuum the fat out of Mr.Bamberger’s ass at 10 o’clock that morning. He drops his pants and says the fat is still there. Dr. Lasher apologizes and says they had admisnistrative issues and they’ll reschedule the surgery. Mr.B asks when and Dr.L says he can’t sauy for certain. Mr.B walks past Dr. L and remarks that he knew he should’ve gone to Mercy West and says that he better not get a bill or Dr.L will be hearing from his lawyer. He leaves. David, Todd, Keith, Dr. Evett Dr.Evett- David Covington (30) has a brain tumor. Dr.Smith enters the room and finds Dr.Evett there. Dr.Evett is David’s regular neurologist who’s been treating him at Seattle General. Dr.Smith and Dr.Evett make the usual introductions and Dr.Evett says that he’s glad that Dr.Smith was able to get David into the program. Dr.Smith points out that there are an enormous amount of risks involved but they’ll have to better assess which they’ll know with a new CT. Dr.Smith begins to roll Davd out. Keith- Dr.Tompson enters the room and finds Dr.Evett and Keith (David’s father) there. Dr.Tompson explains the procedure they’re going to do. They are going to inject a virus into the tumor which will cut off it’s blood supply and basically starve it. Keith asks if they’ve had success doing that and Dr.Tompson says there’s only been one other patient. At the doorway, Todd remarks that it’s ok because David has survived two tours in Afghanistan so he’s used to risk. David asks his dad if he called his whole platoon and Keith (David’s dad) says he only called Todd and Todd says he called the whole platoon. Keith says that if David’s going to beat this he’s going to need his friends by his side. David – Dr.Tompson is drawing David’s blood and Todd is sitting by his bedside. They are having a guarded conversation and are very aware of Dr.T’s presence. Todd asks Dr:t what’s the recovery period for brain surgery. Dr.T says it varies but usually 4-6 weeks and Todd remarks to David that he’ll be stuck with him for another 4-6 weeks. David tells him not to be an idiot and that he ships out in 5 days and Todd answers he doesn’t have to. David tells Todd to not screw this up for himself. That he’s a soldier, it’s who he is and David is probably not going to survive the surgery. Todd jokes and says that’s cool because then he’ll be ready to go in 5 days so they don’t even have to have this argument. David asks him why he came and Todd answers how could he not. Todd takes David’s hand and David looks nervously at Dr.T. Todd says he’s too paranoid. Dr.T announces that she’s finished and she’ll leave them both and she pick sup her chart. David and Todd aren’t even paying attention to her anymore and are looking at each other. Todd is leaning in for a slow, sexy kiss filled with so much yearning and longing (that’s the side description –not mine lol). Suddenly David’s dad shows up and yells “Mr.Covington!”. David and Todd look at keith and the whole room goes deathly quiet. Dr.Tompson enters David’s room to shave his head for surgery. Dr.T tells David that Todd is in the lobby and he wanted him to know. David says that Todd an idiot and should just go and forget about him. Dr.T says that’s not an easy thing to do. David agrees but says it would be better for everyone especially with Dr.Evett around. Todd can’t risk getting outed or he’d lose everything he’s worked for. Dr.T says it’s crazy that he has to worry about that. David remarks –don’t ask, don’t tell. He knew the deal when he signed on but he figured he would just keep his work life separate from his personal life. He didn’t count on meeting his personal life at work. Dr.T hands David a mirror and asks him if he wants to watch. David tells Dr.T that this is longest he’s ever had his hair since he enlisted. He survived 6 years of active duty and he can’t believe it’s a tumor that’s probably going to kill him. Dr.T says she can get Todd but David says no because of his dad. David goes on and say he knows what Dr.T is thinking. He’s a brave soldier who can’t even stand up to his father. Dr.T says that’s not what she’s thinking. She’s thinking that this is hard. David asks the tumor part or the gay part and Dr.T answers ‘the whole part’. Dr.T starts to shave David’s head for surgery. Todd- the scene where David’s dad shows up just as David and Todd are about to kiss is slightly longer. After the room goes quiet, Keith (David’s dad) tells Todd to get out. David and Keith look at each other and David drops his hand immediately. Keith tells Todd to not make him throw him out. Todd looks at David and tells him not to worry that he’s not going anywhere. Todd walks out. In the ICU hallway (night): Dr.T is monitoring david’s progress and Keith is watching from the hallway. Todd approaches with 2 cups of coffee. Todd says the coffee tastes awful but keeps you awake. Keith doesn’t acknowledge him. Todd says that he knows his presence in uncomfortable for keith but he can’t leave. He was trained not to leave a man when he’s down. A man is down and they both [Todd and Keith] love him. Lucas, Kyra, Jessie, Zoe Last case is of a woman named Kyra who has congestive heart failure and needs surgery. Her husband is named Lucas and they have two daughters: Zoe (9) and Jessie (5) who’s dressed as a princess. Lucas - Dr. Smith is administering “medical” to Kyra. Lucas gave the girls gum because they’re mother is living in a hospital and going to have surgery so they should have as much sugar they want. Kyra says they better watch out when she gets her new heart and Lucas says they can’t wait. Zoe asks what Dr.Smith is doing. Lucas answers it’s something way too complicated for a 5 year old to understand and picks her up and gives her a hug. Nighttime – Lucas picks Zoe up to give her mom a kiss before the doctors fix her heart. Lucas notices Kyra’s neck muscles straining and tells Dr:Smith there’s something wrong. Dr. Smith who was charting rushes over and asks what happened. Lucas says that she just started gasping for air. Dr.Smith thinks her lung dropped and orders Dr.Brown to be paged. Kyra lies motionless and Lucas is scared. He asks Dr.S if he should be doing something. Dr.S grabs a mask and gloves, pushes Lucas out of the way and and starts to pull out a large needle… Zoe – The beggining is similar to the Lucas side except the doctor is now Dr.James. Dr. James says to a nurse “medical, medical” and Zoe asks her mom what that means. Kyra tells her not to worry, she’s still too young. Dr.James explains to Zoe that it’s like Snow White. When she eats the poison apple and she’s dead for a while but not really dead. Zoe asks if her mom is going to be dead and Dr.J says ‘no’ and then ‘yes technically’ but it’s okay because she’s going to come back to life. Zoe is scared and looks at her mom. Jessie – The beginning is similar to the side for Lucas. Jessie asks Dr.James if she likes princesses and she says yeah, sure. Jessie asks who’s Dr.James’ favorite princess and Dr.J says she doesn’t know and asks Jessie what’s hers. Jessie answers Snow White. Dr.J holds out the stethoscope and asks Jessie if she wants to listen to her mom’s heart. Jessie perks up. Kyra – Total chaos in the room. Kyra is having a panic attack. Lucas stands helplessly by. Kyra says to Lucas that she needs him to hold her without the wires in her. She needs him to kiss her with a nurse taking her blood pressure every 5 minutes. She says he can’t do this anymore. Lucas tells her he’s right there. Kyra says he’s not. She can’t touch him outside of the bed and she can’t play with the kids. She needs to get out of there. Kyra sees Dr.Brown and says Dr.B told he she’d have a heart in 3 weeks and it’s been 8 weeks in that bed and in that room. Dr.B tells Kyra to listen to her but Kyra continues…She says she doesn’t want anymore of Dr.B’s promises. She wants to leave. She wants to hug her kids and kiss her husband. She needs hands sticky with peanut butter and her husband’s morning breath. Asks if Dr.B can imagine missing morning breath and then says she’s going crazy in there. Dr.B approaches the bed and reaches out to Kyra. Kyra takes her hand. Dr.B tells Kyra that she will leave the room soon. That’s what Dr.B had come to tell her, they had a heart for her. The next scene in the side is the scene with the kids in the room and Dr.James telling Jessie that her mom will be dead like Snow White. Jessie asks “Snow White dies??” and runs to her mother’s bed. Dr. James apologizes and says she thought Jessie knew. Kyra tells Dr.J that they never let her watch till the end. When they’re little you skip over the scary parts. Dr:J apologizes again and Kyra says it’s ok because Dr.J doesn’t have kids so how would she know. Wayne – (In the hospital conference room) Dr.Smith and Dr.Walker enter the room and meet Wayne the HR manager. Dr.Smith asks what is the problem. Wayne informs them that no formal harassment complaints have been filed however the Hospital Board wants to protect itself from possible future litigation. Dr. Smith asks if he means sexual harassment. Wayne answers yes and that as of that day every hospital employee is going to fill out a form stating all their past and current workplace relationships. Wayne hands them a stack of forms.

[Eternal Flame]

oh wow sexual harrasment? Interesting topic to touch in a show like this, especially given the relationships that already occured within the hospital.

thnx for the sides info! Seem like interesting cases.

From Ausiello

Question: Any idea how good or bad the upcoming episodes of Grey's Anatomy are? — Alistair Ausiello: That depends. Does the sight of two extremely good-looking young men making out on your TV screen get you excited? If your answer is yes, then I guarantee you at least one of Grey's five post-strike episodes will be very good. According to my Seattle Grace mole, producers are looking for a pair of actors in their twenties to play gay soldiers in love. Interested thesps must be Caucasian, hot and be comfortable sharing a "very romantic kiss" with another dude. BTW, if you're wondering why we teased this item with a photo of Eric Dane, it's because A) the story pertains to Grey's, and B) Dane is a member of that show's cast. Duh.
