Owen and Amelia give a shot to work through their marriage while working on an older patient.
We open on Maggie, Alex, and Meredith picking up Diane Pierce (a.k.a.
At first Meredith and Amelia say its for sex for her shirts to fit better.

In any case, Dianedoeseventually tell her… and Maggie is understandably shocked.
Honestly I cant track wherethiskid ever is).
The next day, Diane Pierce goes into surgery and Maggie paces nervously outside.
Obviously she did, as we see her and Alex discuss it.
But Dr. Grey stone coldliesto him, saying, I have three kids and a job.
As funny as it is, fair point.
Shes a very busy lady, and Im not sure what Riggs does on his time off.
Probably practice his jokes for when he sees Meredith.
Anyhow, the next time he sees her, Riggs tries asking her again.
But this time, Meredith points out that hes pushing her without giving her anything to go on.
Everyone she knows who knows him doesnt like him, but Riggs insists on joking like it doesnt matter.
So Riggs tries to give her a reason… and cant.
To this, Meredith suggests he ask her out to dinner.
She then says yes when he does.
But before she can say or do anything else, Jackson gets her because Maggie needs her…
When Meredith finds her, Maggie is staring at her mothers charts.
She turns to her half sister and says that her mom is really, really sick.
Naturally, the residents are thrilled.
Shes bleeding in her brain.
Amelia could do some surgery to ease it, but she wouldnt advise it.
Not that it matters, because Elsie manages to convince her to do the surgery.
(At which point I stopped trying to hold in my tears.)
She also just wantsmoretime with him.
(Remember Doc?!
Its this reassurance that makes Owen mad at Amelia when he finds out shes going through with the surgery.
Hed told Lewis to trust her because he thoughtshewouldnt be doing it.
Thankfully, the surgery goes well.
Through all this, Owen and Amelia are having various disagreements all over the hospital.
EvenBaileyneeds to get involved at one point.
Basically, Amelia accuses Owen of suffocating her with his desire to have kids.
She even brings upCristina, which is kind of a low blow.
This is where the episode is at its most annoying.
I cant imagine anyone rooting for this couple anymore, because they really are making each other miserable.
At this point Im crying some real Denny Duquette-sized tears.
As they watch Amelias surgery, they tease each other about growing old.
Ben knows Baileys going to be a bossy old lady wholl miss the days she ran a hospital.
This leads her to investigate why Arizona is also on the receiving end of Richards chilly side.
Here, Arizona points out that Baileys just trying to make herself feel better.
(I kind of agree.)
Nonetheless, Arizona and Richard do manage to dump the air.
Im pretty much with Stephanie when she says, Stop talking.
So he tries to apologize and hug her, proving to be not so great at that either.
Never change, but maybe learn from your mistakes.
