This week on Grey's Anatomy, put on your top hats kids because not only is it the 100th episode, but it is the wedding we have been anticipating for five seasons. And in preparation for this wedding, ABC has been gracious enough to make Meredith likable the past few episodes reminding us of why we wanted her to marry Hottie McDreamy in the first place. So get out your tissues and be ready to do the Twist, the YMCA and the Chicken Dance because it's wedding time on Grey's.
*Sidenote-I know that an amazing season finale aired last week and I really want to talk about that, but let us pretend that it is a week ago and I'm not super late.
The episode kicks off with Izzie outer monologing the usual inner monologue. And, damn she looks awful. Her hair is already all gone and she is talking as if even breathing is causing her extreme difficulty. When did she lose her hair? Last week she was rivaling Anthony Marentino from SATC and now she looks like the final scene of Stepmom. She is talking about how you don't know the morning of the best day of your life, that it will be the best day of your life. It starts out normal, and slowly becomes the best day ever.
Mer and Der check out the church that will be wedding them that night. They confirm that it's just a normal day that will end in this overly churchy church with a ceremony. They both realize it has little to do with them, as they had nothing to do with the planning. And now, off to work. I get that you aren't into weddings, but at least take the day off of work. Weddings are way easier and more fun if you keep a steady amount of alcohol pumped in your blood stream for the entirety of the day. Especially for the bride and groom. Trust me.
Its morning at Seattle Grace and Torres is waking up in a small plastic chair to Yang bitching at her. First, Torres...thanks for being the only person on TV who actually looks like they just woke up. Even the girls on the rock of love bus wake up with a 1/2 face full of makeup, granted the other half is smeared all over Bret and Big John's cock. But I look like a character from 28 Days later when I wake up. Anyways, Yang is bitching because they both spent the night at the hospital.
Yang only slept there because Torres was supposed to be banging Arizona all night and Yang wanted to give them their space. But a night of passion was not in the cards for Torres who instead picked up extra shifts at the ER, and now has to go straight to work. Because remember...she's poor. So now she has to work overtime. I love the idea of an ER doctor working all day, then overnight, sleeping for a couple hours in a chair, then going back to work. I hope I have an accident so I can have that stellar care!
Torres leaves an exhausted Yang and heads to heal the injured. Grey walks in and Yang turns on the Maid of Honor face, and she rocks it. She talks in the fake super happy voice and asks Meredith how's she's feeling on the big day. See if you were pumping alcohol into the bloodstream you the fake happy voice would be way easier Yang. Maid of honor mistake number one. Mer stops her and tells her to be normal, making Yang's face fall back into place instantly. Yang makes sure that Grey isn't about to flip out, pre-wedding style, because you know she's a doctor and that is typically frowned upon. But Grey is like, this wedding isn't even about me. It's just a show we're putting on for the real Bridezilla, Izzie.

Great recap! I love what you said about how annoying Arizona was by coming up to Callie repeatedly when she is trying to save a bunch of kids. I couldn't believe how selfish she was being, I would have broken up with her right then if I was Callie.
You were saying that you don't know what "coating" means, the word is coding and means the same thing as flatlining :)

Hilarious recap as usual. The Callie is Poor storyline is so irritating. I think she's still technically a resident, so she probably makes about $35,000/year. Not tons, but enough to have a cup of soup with her fricking salad, and still have a little left over for Ramen noodles.

I think that when she first looked up to see Denny standing there, we all audibly said, COME ON! to our TV screens.
Great recap!

Great recap! Just to clear things up..I did a couple rotations for school in the ICU and what they're saying is that the patient is "coding" not "coating"...as in "Code Blue" I think it means the person is in cardiac arrest.

Ahh, thanks for clearing up the "coding" issue. I didn't think that was right, and code blue makes way more sense then residents following patients around and slipping coats on them.
Finale coming soon!
