Okay Grey's peeps, I took a week off from liveblogging Grey's and then the show had a wee hiatus. \u00a0But it's back and so am I. \u00a0How will Seattle Grace fare with Jackson running the show?<\/p>\n
One pre-show thought - what is it with April and men in charge? \u00a0First McDreamy and now Jackson? \u00a0Just a thought.... Will April's heating fling\/thing with the paramedic fizzle out under the bright lights of Jackson's power play?<\/p>\n
His first move is firing Owen? \u00a0You go Cristina - but Meredith wins the round. \u00a0She reminds Jackson that the doctor's sued the hospital over the plane crash that killed Lexie. \u00a0But Owen is still on the chopping block -- so he takes on Jackson. \u00a0Derek has to save the big, bad power powerbroker - and it works until Owen quits. \u00a0Does anybody think Cristina will let Owen quit?<\/p>\n
Nope, she chases Owen outside. \u00a0He tells her Derek blames him for the crash. \u00a0Uhh Ohh - now Cristina's going McDreamy hunting. \u00a0He'd still be cute with an arrow between his eyes.<\/p>\n
Now there are 3 organ transplant surgeries in one day and no transplant coordinator - because Owen was going to do that job. \u00a0And April's trying to talk one donor out of donating. \u00a0(I\"m a lawyer and I have no idea if Cardiac Death donation is legal.) \u00a0But I love April's crusading spirit -- even if I suspect she's gonna be power crushin' on Jackson real soon.<\/p>\n
Jo's talking to Mer about Alex. \u00a0Is Jo really that clueless? \u00a0I've heard men try to claim that they \"know\" first, but I don't know if I believe it. \u00a0What do y'all think?<\/p>\n
Cristina suggests that the warring neighbors get transplants on the same day - domino style - but one of them is ornery enough to reject it on principal: \u00a0he doesn't want anything to do with his neighbor's heart. \u00a0Mer and Jo arrive to find--- a kidnapped kidney?? \u00a0Seriously? \u00a0We're at commercial now but the docs have just said they're done; \u00a0Mer said, where's our kidney; \u00a0and the docs give each other that Cpt. Kirk\/Spock look -- oh so dramatic. \u00a0It can only mean -- a kidnapped kidney. \u00a0Unless I'm wrong - which does happen. \u00a0Hey, \u00a0If Shonda was going to get alliterative, how about \"the purloined pancreas?\"<\/p>\n
It seems the kidney is on a plane to Seattle.... \u00a0How? \u00a0I'm wondering if it was Owen.<\/p>\n
Catherine thinks Richard wants Jackson's job ---- he tells her she's setting Jackson up to fail. \u00a0Yo, Richard - never get between a Mama and her baby boy. \u00a0A mama's baby stays a mama's baby - whether he's 2, 22 or 32. \u00a0(My oldest baby toddles onto a stage to get his engineering degree in May. \u00a0He thinks he's grown, but I know better - just like Catherine. \u00a0Except - I don't always know better. \u00a0Sometimes, I just think I'm right.)<\/p>\n
April comes around - and now it's time for Cristina and Derek to have a heart to heart. \u00a0She asks Derek what his deal with Owen is about - \"it's not about him\" she says and Derek doesn't disagree. \u00a0Is it Mark? \u00a0Did Derek decide he was betraying Mark by befriending Owen? \u00a0We'll see, now they've started the transplant two-step.<\/p>\n
Jackson steps up and says \"that is it.\" \u00a0And it is it -- \u00a0who can overrule him? \u00a0(Only Mama, of course.) \u00a0Bailey in Jackson's corner is interesting. \u00a0She was in the Chief's corner for a lot of years.<\/p>\n
Mer and Jo arrive with the kidney. \u00a0No explanations - except that Jo fought hard for it.<\/p>\n
Derek goes after Owen. \u00a0Derek says he's been pissed at the world - and at Mark. \u00a0And April has to drag a distraught Mama off the son who just turned off his vent so his heart would die and he could donate his organs. \u00a0It's a noble thing to do but I'd have sawed off the hand of anyone touching that vent. \u00a0Just saying. \u00a0Again. \u00a0Don't mess with a mama's baby.<\/p>\n
And Richard and Catherine are still fighting over Jackson. \u00a0She tells him to back off. \u00a0Then she tells Richard she's been looking for a father for Jackson for 28 years. \u00a0Ahmm - does that sort of make Meredith and Jackson siblings? \u00a0Step-siblings?<\/p>\n
Now Jackson takes control of the board meeting. \u00a0Owen agrees to come back. \u00a0Jackson says they are re-opening the ER. \u00a0Awww - and they re-name the hospital: GREY - SLOANE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL.<\/p>\n
Yep- that sounds just right.<\/p>\n
