While all the doctors are in John Doe's surgery discussing how George will do in Army, Alex is trying to help Izzie retain some type of memory. He has notes written around her entire room that she reads and remembers, then forgets, then remembers, then forgets. Some of the highlights from Karev include "your memory sucks" "O'Malley joined army" and "You promised me head after surgery....i mean, you don't have to, but I know how much you hate to break promises." Karev's persistence for Izzie to remember things reaches an alarming level, prompting Yang to pull him in the hall. She basically tells him that if he doesn't back the F up then she will revoke his visiting hours. He goes off on Yang about how freaked out he is showing that he is pretty much losing it.

After her fight with Karev, Yang finds Meredith who is about to leave and go get married. Yang is like, today....this is the worst day ever for that? But Meredith tells her that she looks around at all the patients we are focusing on this episode and the one thing they all have in common is their desire to show and experience love. Meredith concludes that you have to take time to tell the ones you love how much you love them. Yang...and me are both like, WHO ARE YOU? This is the same person who had the stone wall built up around them with the therapist in the season premiere. This therapist must be AMAZING. Yang agrees and even wants to hug it out.

Smiles.....facial expressions and hugs? It's a whole new day on Greys.

Arizona, unable to enter a scene unless she is confronting someone, finds Torres to argue the "awesome versus not awesome" feelings towards war again. Arizona makes a valid point, but it also sounds like something you'd hear on FOX news so I'll just top line it with Arizona lost her brother to war and truly respects anyone who wants to go and save lives over there. (I do too BTW, but with one dying from cancer, do we really need to have the war debate in this episode too? I mean....I'm still watching this while drinking cheap wine.)

In the air vent room, Yang sits in deep thought when she is interrupted by the Major. I'm convinced that these two are incapable of having any type of interaction that isn't completely awkward. But I guess that's what happens after you strangle someone. The Major goes to leave and Yang stops him. She begins to try to say something but acts like her tongue is 24 pounds. I feel like I am watching that scene from Saved by the Bell where Zack get lemon juice in his water after sabotaging the school's new song so he could win and sings "Doe bitty doo" in front of the whole school in their fifth year as high school students. Only it's not as awesome. After a minute of stuttering Yang spits out "I love you." And it is sweet...ish. The Major says that they can make it work if they want. She just has to meet him halfway on the Brooklyn bridge, or just say yes since the whole meet halfway on the bridge is so 2008.

Alex continues to try and jog Izzie's memory, but it is one useless try after another. He begins to get increasingly irritated as Izzie gets increasingly exhausted. Dude, she had surgery like 14 minutes ago, maybe let her take a couple days off before drilling her. Instead of following my advice though, he tries for husband of the year again by shouting in her face. I think the highlights are when he tells her he only married her because she was about to die and asking her what is he supposed to do with her now...smother her with a pillow. Aw, heart? He's a rare breed ladies who is sadly taken. Frown. He thinks he is ok though, because its not like Izzie is going to remember any of this repulsive conversation. Only she does....a few seconds later, she remembers, then a few more seconds later she still remembers. It's kind of a joyless victory though because, yeah your memory is coming back...but now you can remember what shithead you married. Maybe Alex should have taken my advice to you know...give her a day or two?
