The Major finds Alex away from the pit, in which he was put in charge of. The Major, after hearing more of the driver's story has begun to realize what George realized earlier. That the pedestrian might of actually jumped in front of the driver because he was suicidal. The Major orders Karev to get his ass back to the pedestrian because he can't leave, and if he does something to himself, it'll be on Alex. At the pedestrian's bed, the psychiatrist has shown up as George ordered, but the patient is gone. Alex comes down in time to find this and blames George for losing him. And George blames Alex for not thinking something was wrong with the guy. They rush outside to find the patient and become screaming at each other. Turns out they both hate each other's guts and have tried to get a long and respect each other, but they just can't do it. Where are all these random rivalries and hostilities coming from today? I thought they all liked each other. As they are fighting, they find the pedestrian.
As they rush him into the OR, which isn't a long trip, Redface asks what happened. Alex freezes and George steps in with the medical mumbo jumbo. Impressed by his information, redface tells George to scrub in. Alex stands with his thumb up his ass.
In the driver's OR, bros turned rivals-Derek and Sloan, are conducting surgery together. They start to fight with each other again, because when is a better time to hash it out then when you've got a knife in someone's brain. They go back and forth and Sloan makes the point that Derek has always seen him as a man-whore loser who he's never respected. As he's saying this blood spatters from the guy's brain which Sloan instantly stitches back up. Master McDreamy looks impressed. Perhaps they are ready to start anew?
In Izzie's room, the affects of the chemo have finally set in for her. She looks awful and is tired and frail. A Doctor is checking up on her and when he leaves he knocks one of the hideous dresses to the floor. Izzie, desperate to remain herself, walks over to pick the monstrosity up off the floor and collapses. Her monitor begins buzzing, but nobody comes. They all think she is joking because of her pranks all day. So they all let her lie there. I'm kidding, they all rush in to help her. But that would have been awesome.
In the pedestrian/suicidal patient's surgery the Major and George conduct surgery. The Major is very impressed at how good George is, and how calm he stays under pressure. He asks George what his specialty will be because he'll do well. Thus setting the stage for George to join the military as a doctor because he is so calm under pressure. (That's what the rumors are anyways)
Daddy Torres and the Chief are discussing Torres leaving the hospital and going home with Dad. Daddy T offers to pay any amount to refund the Chief for whatever Seattle Grace invested in Torres, and the Chief is like, dude, she's a woman....like, a grown up? Daddy T begins a quintessential Grey's Anatomy speech, where he repeats key phrases a lot and though he is saying it in context of the conversation, you know it really is representing a different scene in the episode. He is telling the Chief that when you are a parent, you can never surrender and that everything you do is for love.
Cut to Jessica's dad, still frantically trying to get his child to Mexico as Bailey lies with her. She tells him to stop and come be with his daughter. She tells him that he should be lying here for her last breaths, not Bailey and that it's time to stop. Everyone got your tissues handy? This one is a doozy....Bailey pleads with him to come and hold his daughter and say goodbye. He finally comes and lies down and talks to his daughter until she stops breathing. He keeps talking to her and crying after her heart has stopped and, it is officially one of the saddest Grey's moments ever.

Yet another hilarious recap. This site just makes my day, I only wish you guys would cover more shows. BTW, what happened to the Terminator recap of the finale?

Very funny, TWSS.
The only dress that Meredith looked passable in was the one she was wearing when she ran out to revive Izzie. It covered up her shoulders more. She's too thin too wear spaghetti straps, and that last dress looked too big on her.
Her face looks better now. I think it is filling out a little because Ellen Pompeo is pregnant.

The one who plays Lexie is also pregnant in real life. Must be something in the craft services water...

Lexie is looking very pretty, but I don't like that they have "glamourized" her now that she's involved with Mark. She used to look like a real person, with little/no makeup and her hair pulled back.
Why is this show starting to get good right at the end of the season after wasting all that time on that awful dead Denny story line?

TWSS, I highly second your recommendation on Cheats being the funniest movie ever.
I bet no one knows karate like your karate!
