Honestly, most shows barely get to 100 episodes, so 200 is very impressive. So naturally, it's party time!
And wow is it a party. It's like Cirque-du-Soleil in here, which is totally fitting with the whole "we need money thing". Jackson is not happy, Hunt is not happy, and none of the doctors want to be there. And, of course, there's and accident.
Bailey and the Patients
Bailey is stuck at the hospital with the worst patients ever: Weber and a bigoted dying dude. The bigot doesn't want to die, and Weber does so much that he pushed Bailey. Her solution? Put the two in the same room together. Bigot accepts his death and Weber decides to live. Good job, Bailey.
Christina and Hunt
Christina had all the best lines tonight (besides Arizona/Kepner). She tries to convince Hunt that they need to meet other people, which they do, but in very different ways. Hunt meets a cute doctor from another hospital trying to divert money to her hospital and who also likes Hunt. Christina gets a rich guy progressivly drunker so he'll spend more money.
The best part of the episode is when said rich guy gives her a check and asks her to go home with him. She says no, and he accepts it. This should not be so amazing or new, but it is. Most of the time, she'd be accused of leading him on and that she owes him sex. But no, Grey's Anatomy shows a progressive view and it's wonderful. But Christina eats her words about meeting new people when she sees that the other doctor is clearly interested in Hunt, whereas she can't or doesn't want to meet anyone else.
Callie
Callie, Callie, Callie. I know you're hurt, but telling all the donors that you're wife is dead? That's pretty shitty. Eventually she realizes this while putting the trapeze artist back together as she had a conversation at the party who actually lost their husband.
Jackson
Jackson spends most of the episode with Hunt pressuring him and trying to find a way to make everyone happy. The party was clearly over the top, but in the end Jackson finds a great way to get people to donate: show them what the hospital actually does. Smart thinking dude.

Meredith and Derek
Meredith and Derek were the adorablest this episode. Apparently, neither are working because of maternity leave, so they've become ridiculously competitive about the most mundane things including getting the most donors. Also, Derek juggles.
In the end, they both end up doing surgery on the collapsed event planner and decide to forgo the whole no surgery thing. And they make a wonderful reference to the last big shindig the hospital put on in season 2.

The Interns
The interns make the spectacularly terrible decision that they can handle all the ER problems on their own. Good job. They end up having to call Yang, who bonds with Smiley, and then Smiley kisses Stephanie, which Jackson walks in on. At least he and Stephanie have an actual conversation on their relationship? I don't know, I'm not very invested in this. Also, what is with all the blatant attendings dating interns? Remember when it was a big deal?
Jo and Alex
Jo, the only intern at the party, talks up Alex who mopes in the corner for most of the episode. But it's okay, because he thinks one of the patients is his dad, and it turns out it is. I'm excited to see this storyline play out because this may be the most interesting thing they've given Alex.

Arizona and Kepner
New. Favorite. Thing. Callie's glares at Arizona send her literally back in the closet. Kepner runs into her, so they get drunk in the supplies closet and oh my god this is my new favorite friendship. Kepner hilariously asks Arizona if she can try on her leg and Arizona hilariously boops The Worst Intern on the nose because she is so drunk.
Also, they discuss desire and forgiveness and there's a lot of confusion about who they're talking about. Kepner seems to talk about desire for Jackson and forgiveness from Mathew/Jesus and Arizona shows how cracked her marriage was before the cheating. So it was a mix of sad and funny, and I hope that these two become best friends. Arizona really needs someone on her side and Kepner needs a friend who she's not in love with.

Thought on the 200th episode? How is this Christina/Owen mess going to end? Answer in the comments!
