We'll actually learn about Edwards pre-GSMH
Unlike so many of the major characters on GA, we know very little about Edwards — but that's about to change. "As she continues to find her way in the world of Grey Sloan, you'll find out more about her and where she comes from — how and why she's in this place, and why she is the kind of person that has no compunction about speaking out about what she feels is right," Hinton explains. "You know, she's a woman of conviction, and we're going to continue to find out more about why that is."

She's involved in a progressive medical case of some sort
Real talk: Edwards is kind of a big deal. Last season, she really stepped up to the plate when it came to competing for and contributing to major surgeries (hello, Dr. Herman's brain surgery!). Will Season 12 see her assume a leadership role? Time will tell. "Right now, we're going into filming Episode 6 and, up to this point, there haven't been any major surgeries Stephanie has been involved in," says Hinton, adding with emphasis, "but there has been one case of postoperative care that a bit groundbreaking Stephanie has to be involved in." Fun fact: Hinton records all of Edwards' major surgeries and cases in a notebook she carries around set.

We may learn something traumatic about her past
Speaking of the groundbreaking post-op care Edwards is involved in, Hinton tellingly reveals that it "kind of triggers some stuff for her, and that's one of the ways you come to find out more of her backstory." Interesting! Could Edwards have something dark and painful in her past? It would seem so.

I am actually quite excited about that. Stephanie didn't have the best storylines during the last seasons and as I like Jerrika Hinton, she deserves to get a good storyline for her character.

But what could it be? Any specualtions about her past? What do you think???
