Owen walks out of the room. After a short patient history, Ellis says she'll take over Bailey's case. While Addison does the neonatal update, Richard calmly tells Bailey that what Ellis just did is not a reflection on her. She probably just wants a surgery to take her mind off the Harper Avery she's just been awarded.
Bailey does her best to withhold her tears. Ellis thanks them all. Meredith shows April her engagement ring, which she got last night. She knows it is hard for April, but she assures her she will find someone. And Charles is really into her. Jackson smiles as he hears this. April knows this and starts to say something about Charles, but stops as he walks in and greets her. April asks Meredith if she told anyone else. Beside her parents, but she hadn't because April is her person.
April says they're gonna be the next Shepherds. Meredith then starts telling the proposal story, but is interrupted by Cristina entering the locker room. She has bangs and is disliked by everyone in the room. The disliking is mutual. A cheerful, nerdy dressed Alex comes in. He's Chief Resident and tries to motivate them all.
When Meredith hears about Yang's solo surgery, she figures out she'll be doing Torres' post-ops then. April is on Addison's service, while Charles is on Derek's. He proposes they could be the next Shepherds, but April declines the offer.
Everyone walks out, except Meredith. She stays behind and starts kissing Alex passionately. They had a rule about kissing in the hospital, but the ring just makes her look extra good. Her mother loved the engagement, as she adores him. Alex says that took her a while, but Meredith says she knows he was a jerk before he met her. Ellis didn't know there was a good guy in there, but Meredith did.
She loves the engagement, and him as well. They continue kissing. After the meeting, Owen takes the kids to daycare. Addison joins Callie and comments he's good with the kids. She asks how he's doing. He's better and she thinks they're past it. That's great, Addison says, because she heard it can be a hard road coming back.
None of them knows what he went through out there, but Callie says he does Skype with some of his old buddies that are still in Iraq and this guy, Teddy, seems to be helping him through it. And he hasn't had another episode since that one. So anyway, he's good, and they're good now. Addison says she doesn't know how she does it with the kids, but Callie gestures at her belly and says she'll find out soon enough.
Callie says she and Derek will be fine, as they're perfect together. As she walks away, Addison smile fades. Richard tells Derek that all Ellis is saying is that she wants him to use his full potential. They arrive at the elevator, where Richard greets his daughter. Richard asks about a clinical trial, but Derek says he has no time for that as his baby is coming. Richard thinks it'll do him good. He leaves, leaving Meredith and Derek alone together.
Meredith enthusiastically greets him, but barely gets response. As she begins to try to start a conversation, he walks away. In the ER, Jackson and Owen take on a junkie's case.
Paramedic Nicole brings in the girl, who has tattoos and piercings all over her body. They found her in the street and presume an overdose. The girl is shaking. Just as they want to lift her off the gurney into a hospital bed, she goes into v-fib. They shock her, which normalizes her heart rate. Owen says the girl is all Jackson's. Jackson orders labs and turns the girl's head, revealing it's Lexie. Meredith joins a group of journalists listening to Ellis offering them to come up to the gallery during her surgery and take a few shots of the technique in action.
As the journalists disperse, Meredith compliments her mother and asks if she can scrub in, as she'd love to see the procedure first hand. Ellis asks why, as Meredith's focus is cardio. Scrubbing in on her mother's whipple won't get her a cardio fellowship next year.
Ellis blamingly brings up Yang's solo surgery. Meredith says that that came in last night, when she wasn't there. Ellis says that is because she was too busy getting engaged and says that that is over now and asks if she wants to do the surgery, Ellis can ask Dr. Torres to give it to her.
Meredith declines the offer, as she can get it herself. Alex meets Bailey. He's stoked for their whipple today. Bailey silently objects. Alex tells her to speak up, just like Ellis did earlier that morning. Bailey says they're not doing a whipple today, as she had it taken from her.
Alex tells "Mandy" that they had talked about this. She can't let people walk all over her, she has to stand up for herself. Not if it's Ellis Grey, Bailey says. Alex gets excited, as watching Ellis Grey operate is great. He says they need to get in on the surgery. He rushes off and urges her to follow him. Lexie wakes up. Jackson greats her and says she's finally stable now.
He asks for her name, or anything, so they don't mix up her pee with somebody else's. Lucille Ball , Lexie says, making him smile. He comments she's funny, which is how she makes her living. He says they're gonna get her worked up and send her on her way.
She asks him where she is. She smiles and sighs as she hears the hospital's name. April is delivering a baby and tells the mother, Theresa, not to push. Addison comes in and asks April what's going on. Addison feels around and asks April to order a 3D-ultrasound and prepare an OR for a crash C-section stat. She also needs to have her husband paged. Callie rushes into her patient's room. Arizona tells her the kid detached the connector to the artificial lung, so she had to clamp off the cannula to stop the bleeding.
She told Callie this was a bad idea. The kid's mother asks if he's worse now that it's not working, but Callie watches the monitor and asks Arizona to stop. His sats are higher than they've ever been. She asks the kid if it's hard to breathe, but it's not. Arizona tests his breathing with a breathing device. He's breathing better than he ever has done before. From the sound of his lungs, it may look like a transplant is not necessary anymore after all.
The mother is thrilled and hugs Callie, saying she loves her. Callie reflects momentarily on the effect of Arizona's hug. Bailey tells her patient and his wife that the Chief of Staff took over the surgery. They don't understand why. Alex steps in and tells them to think of it as a huge upgrade.
They've just been handed the keys to a Jaguar, while they'd been driving a civic. Ellis walks in and introduces herself. She explains the procedure quickly. She gives them consent forms and gives them no time to ask questions or whatsoever. Before Ellis leaves, Alex asks her if he can scrub in. Of course, she'd love to have him. Barry, the patient, asks if Bailey can explain what that woman just said.
However, Bailey has noticed something in the chart and wanders off. Cristina wakes up Lexie by shining a flashlight into her eyes. She tells Lexie her heart stopped again. Because of all the cocaine she's enjoyed, she needs a surgical implant. Cristina gives her an informative brochure in case she has any questions about the surgery.
Cristina walks away. Jackson asks if there's anyone he can call. Lexie replies her parents are dead. Her mother died of a stomach thing and her father killed himself. Lexie smiles and says she does have a half-sister, who works as a doctor at this hospital. Jackson asks her who it is, but Lexie says her sister doesn't know her, and she wouldn't want to. Charles and Derek walk into Addison's OR, responding to her page. They look at the ultrasound. Addison explains to her what's going on and April says that the Shepherd's are the best team she could ever have.
Addison delivers the baby and Derek immediately starts taking care of her. Looking at the scans, Addison and Derek start fighting. They'll need to operate simultaneously, and it'll take all day.
Addison sarcastically apologizes, since he didn't plan on spending all day with his wife. He says he'll see her in the OR. Meredith meets Richard in the scrub room and tells him she needs to steal a surgery from Cristina Yang. Yang is always stealing surgeries, he justifies. Meredith says Ellis is operating, but that she doesn't want her to be in there. Richard reminds off her of when she learned to ride a bike.
After an accident, it was her mother who made her get back on her bike. And then she learned to ride a bike. Ellis just wants her to succeed. Richard offers her to scrub in on his surgery, but they agree she probably shouldn't. She lies her head on his shoulder.
April, Jackson, Alex, and Meredith are watching Cristina stitching a banana in the cafeteria. Cristina has already done two solo thoracic aortic aneurysm surgeries. Jackson asks if she ever eats with anyone, ever. No, April says, because that's what happens when you screw an attending. Jackson makes a virgin joke about April, but Meredith comes up for her person. Meredith reveals that Burke had to leave the state after his sexual encounter with Yang.
Alex says Yang is so crazy she'll probably go 'full-on Izzie' and shoot up the hospital one day. Meredith and Alex tell Jackson Izzie was a crazy girl in their class, who was sleeping with a patient, and then she stole a transplant heart for him.
Until Meredith turned her in to her mother and got her fired. April comments Meredith is brave. After Izzie, there's O'Malley, who failed his intern exam and was never seen again after. Meredith gets up to go and steal Cristina's surgery. At another table, Miranda is explaining to Callie that Ellis' plan won't work, as she will try to use the iliac veins, but they won't be useful due to the patient's extended thrombosis.
Callie isn't paying attention; she's watching Arizona talk to Dr. Atterman , some ortho surgeon. Callie states that she wanted to go into ortho, but she didn't because Ellis told her she was good for cardio. Meredith comes over and she asks if she can do the thoracic aortic aneurysm surgery, as Yang has already done two, while she has only done one, so it's only fair. Callie says she knows what her residents need, and thus refusing. Meredith comments that her mother suggested she ask her, which makes Callie change her mind.
She proposes she and Yang split it, so she and Yang can do it together. Meredith thanks her and walks away. Bailey says Yang won't like it, but it's better than kicking her off the case. It was the first time anyone was asking them what they were living through, and to a person, it felt like they were on the verge of breaking. They were different people, and I felt like Ellen so beautifully embodied it throughout this episode, the change, what this pandemic is doing to people who were trained to help and heal, but not trained to walk through war, and not trained to lose dozens of patients, sometimes in a day.
Meredith collapses at the end of the premiere. Is there a reason to continue? What stories do we have to tell? What characters do we have to bring back that gives us story to tell? Our goal is just to make good TV. Listen, who gets career runs like this? Krista, will the show fast forward to now? How do you track that, and has that been part of your conversation?
Washington was hit really hard early on. Do you get into the politics of the mask, and how that affects in a negative or a positive way? Do you go down that road at all? I write stories about shutdowns virtually every day. Nobody wants to get shut down.
We shut down before other shows, we also came back to production before a lot of other shows, thanks to truly the leadership of Debbie Allen. This is really, truly happening. GreysAnatomy pic. Subscribe to Deadline Breaking News Alerts and keep your inbox happy.

Is it something else? From the sounds of it via the episode description for the next episode, Meredith may have unluckily caught the virus. Excuse us while we cry in a corner. Here's the official episode logline, minus the all-important McDreamy cameo: "The Grey Sloan doctors continue to face their new COVID reality and deal with a familiar and stubborn patient.
Koracick is put in charge of the interns who recently joined the hospital ranks and Link operates on a sex therapist.
