I searched for a thread for this week’s Grey but didn’t see one. I really only wanted to make an observation but since there doesn’t seem to be a general thread. . …

What a lovely voice Miranda has!

What did Grey’s mother say to her that she answered “We can only do the best we can.”?

Does jerky intern not have any other moves besides shoving his tongue down a girl’s throat?  
And the observation: While watching Burke and George have their little exchange by the elevator, I mentally added “You little faggot!” at the end of Burke’s “There’s nothing wrong!” comment. It really interfered with my enjoyment of the show. Mayhaps this is a way for the show to get rid of Burke’s character.

Chadra Wilson rules. They should rewrite it as _Bailey’s Anatomy_.

Ellis Grey said, “I’ll have to raise my daughter all by myself” after finding out that Richard wasn’t going to visit her anymore. Remember, in Ellis’s mind it’s twenty years ago.

As for Alex, he goes with what works. He just got the “bold measures” speach, and was riding high from it. But he did apologize afterwards, and is less jerky than he used to be. In fact, I like him a lot more now than I did this time last year.

Yeah, he started to grow on me after he did cancer lady in the bar restroom. Seriously.

But there are other things in between doing nothing and sticking your tongue down her throat. Sheesh!

Seriously, how can you be in a bathtub with McD and _not_ have sex? Meh, are you nuts?

“Want my pickle?” heh.

“How am I going to raise my daughter alone?”

**amarinth** really liked Izzy and Alex last night. It was a nice contrast. And I like the friendship between Callie and Addison and Bailey, even if I can’t figure out why they were all watching that particular surgery.

No wonder there was no Grey’s thread! Not enough Grey love.

Yes, this is a bump.

Yeah, I thought this was a really good episode. I can’t wait to see Bailey confront Christina and Burke.

Alex is possibly my favorite character on the show.
