"I Smell Dead People. And Spiders. Dead People Killed by Spiders".- Grey's Anatomy 10X01

Well this season premier was shocking. Too soon?

I'm going to try and make this as consise as possible because A LOT happened in two hours.

Meredith

Meredith and her cute baby run the entire show from her hospital bed. She makes medical decisions for Webber, aids Callie, and lets Yang attempt to take a nap in her bed. Girl has come a long way from being dark and twisty.

I was impressed with the handling of Webber's medical care and I may have kind of teared up when she admitted he was family at the end. Meredith has a habit of denying reality until it finally hits her, and this time was rather touching.

Alex and Jo
Alex and Jo waste no time and attempt to have sex in the on call room. Where Alex has had sex with many women. And, you know, the mudslide and death kinda ruin the mood. Then they try and have sex in the supplies closet, but Alex has had sex in there. Alex, stop having sex in the hospital.

Cristina and Owen
I was 800% behind their breakup. Honestly, it should have happened sooner. Christina needs to find someone amazing, and personally I want her to meet someone just as brilliant as her. I never felt like Burke and Owen were on her level. But at least they're finally broken up? And making up for all the sex Alex and Jo aren't having.

Jackson and April
Jackson rebuffs April's proposal and tell her to decide what she really wants. And what does she really want? Cute EMT guy.

Yeah. That's totally going to last. I give it to November sweeps.

The Interns
In all honesty, I dislike most of the interns. I like Jo and Mousey, Smiley's alright, and I hate the other two. Smiley spends the whole episode dealing with his guilt, which I give about 2 episodes before everyone knows, and everyone else tries to bond. I guess Jo and Jackson's intern can bond about sleeping with their bosses?

Webber and Mousey
Mousey is told to go find Webber, and she dumbly walks into the water without checking the scenery, gets electrocuted and hits her head. I totally thought that Webber was going to die and Mousey would be seriously injured. The actress was cast on another television show, so I thought they would give her an out while keeping the door open for her to return and leave us and everyone else with the emotionally disturbing death of Webber.

But no, Mousey is no more. It was sad to watch the interns reaction and even sadder to watch Bailey struggle against Avery's mom and Meredith. And why on earth would anyone give control to Avery's mom? I know she's the owner of the hospital, but come on. That's a clear conflict of interest.

Callie and Arizona

Now, I've saved a this portion of the episode for the end of this, because I have to rant. And it's about Arizona and Callie. If you've gone near Tumblr since the finale, everyone hates her.

First off, Callie telling everyone about Arizona and leaving without telling her was shitty. Second, Sophia is Arizona's kid. Arizona may not have wanted her right away but she has been Sophia's parent since her birth and has every right to want to see her kid. Thirdly, this isn't some new betrayal because A) Adultery is a theme in Grey's Anatomy (this topic is covered wonderfully here: ) Hell, in this episode there was a huge discussion about the Chief's adultery which Meredith forgave him for. This isn't new. B) Shonda researched the effects of losing a limb. Basically, people who lose a limb do out of character things for up to years after the incident. and C) Grey's Anatomy lives in these grey (haha) areas.

I get both sides. Callie didn't experience the accident, just the aftermath and Arizona got both in big fucking ways. And no matter how much Arizona apologizes, the fact of the matter is that Arizona cheated.

And Izzie cut the LVAD wire. Meredith opened the test results. The chief cheated. Alex killed a patient. April slept with Jackson (I'm not saying sleeping with people is bad. This is Grey's. In April's moral compass it was bad and this season we've seen her come to terms with it. The end). George cheated. Alex told a patient's husband information that resulted in a lawsuit for Addison. Owen cheated. Teddy married a patient for the insurance. Derek cheated. Meredith cheated.


Good people do bad things and then have to figure it out after. That's Grey's Anatomy. So Arizona is not a whore or a bitch, she's someone who screwed up after a traumatic event. And I for one am excited to watch these two try to work it out.
Rant over.
