“#’Grey’s Anatomy’: Another Original Character Gets Resurrected (RECAP)<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Grey\u2019s Anatomy <\/em>Season 17, Episode 4, \u201cYou\u2019ll Never Walk Alone\u201d]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Krista Vernoff, the mastermind behind these recent Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em> seasons, told fans to expect other characters<\/a> to join Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) on that dream beach. And in Season 17, Episode 4, \u201cYou\u2019ll Never Be Alone,” we find out who’s next: It’s T.R. Knight, reprising the role of George O\u2019Malley on the ABC medical drama for the first time in 12 seasons.<\/p>\n

George pops up on the dream beach as Mer takes a turn for the worse, unconscious in the ICU with COVID-19. In her dream life, Mer and George discuss her near-death status. \u201cDo I get to decide if I get to go back?\u201d she asks. And he says, \u201cI don\u2019t know. I didn\u2019t. I would have stayed if I could have decided.\u201d<\/p>\n

George tells Mer he still checks in on his loved ones from time to time, including his mother, who’s still grieving. And soon, Richard (James Pickens Jr.) joins them. He\u2019s not dead or dying, mind you. But he\u2019s standing guard at Mer\u2019s bedside, torn about whether or not to put Mer into an experimental COVID-19 trial.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you stay here, you might break him,\u201d George tells Mer as they watch Richard fret. In real life, Mer starts convulsing, and Richard overhears her talking to George. He decides to sign off on the trial.<\/p>\n

As the sun sets over the beach, Mer says he was she was so mad at George for choosing someone over himself (in Season 5, George jumped in front of a bus to save a pedestrian). \u201cYou\u2019d have done the same thing,\u201d he says. \u201cIsn\u2019t that why you\u2019re here?\u201d<\/p>\n

She retorts that it\u2019s his fault she\u2019s such a selfless hero. \u201cYou went all in for everybody, your friends, your family, a woman at the bus stop,\u201d she says. \u201cYou think that didn\u2019t affect me?\u201d<\/p>\n

Later, when Bailey (Chandra Wilson) checks in on Mer, Richard recalls how he watched Mer grow up. \u201cI\u2019ve watched her become a surgeon, a wife, a mother, and a chief,\u201d he tells Bailey. And then we see Bailey and Richard on the beach with Mer and George \u2014 four of the show\u2019s original cast of characters. In her ending monologue, Mer says, \u201cFind your people, and keep them close, because when you\u2019re at your lowest, those people get you through.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other news<\/a>, one of Owen\u2019s (Kevin McKidd) former app<\/a>endicitis patients returns to the hospital, and it\u2019s resident Tseng (Sylvia Kwan) who realizes what\u2019s wrong with the guy: He has developed right-sided diverticulitis. She complains to Nico (Alex Landi), saying Owen should have known that right-sided diverticulitis is 10 times more likely for people of Asian descent than for white people. Nico relays that to Owen, who talks it over with Bailey. Bailey tells him his treatment protocols center around white patients, and when he argues that he uses the same protocol for everyone, she says, \u201cEqual doesn\u2019t work for everybody, Hunt. It\u2019s about equity. Patients getting what they need, whether it fits into a protocol or not.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking of Nico, he and Schmitt (Jake Borelli) are sleeping together, following the Dutch government\u2019s recommendation to find a \u201cdesignated sex partner.\u201d (\u201cTheir country ranks very high on the World Happiness Index,\u201d Schmitt says, justifying the ex sex.)<\/p>\n

\"Greys<\/a><\/p>\n

And while we\u2019re talking about designated sex partners, Jo (Camilla Luddington) finally has her \u201cbridge\u201d sex with Jackson. They promise each other they\u2019re not a thing, but when Jo shows up at his place unannounced that night, he assumes she has caught feelings, so he tells her how he needs to be alone \u2014 because he dated Vic (Barrett Doss) shortly after breaking up with Maggie (Kelly McCreary), whom he started dating shortly after breaking up with April. She laughs in his face, assuring him that she only needs friendship and sex\u2026and that she would never be interested in \u201cMr. Can\u2019t Be Alone But Sometimes Leaves Town For Nature Journeys.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Greys<\/a><\/p>\n

Maggie, meanwhile, is having a more romantic time, even if Winston (Anthony Hill) abandons her on a meet-the-family Zoom call with his grandmother and estranged father. He later explains to Maggie over video chat that his father has a vicious temper. Instead of talking about it, though, he shares his screen so that they can have a movie date together.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Maggie, she and Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) are both worried about Mer and, for her part, Amelia is quickly tiring of Link\u2019s (Chris Carmack) relentless optimism. \u201cLet me have my fear and my grief and my anger \u2014 because if I don\u2019t, if I keep shoving it down, you will find a very hard time finding the bright side to the consequences,\u201d she tells him.<\/p>\n

\"Serious<\/a><\/p>\n

He makes space for her feelings, but he explains that he learned as a young cancer patient that he has to focus on the positive. (When Amelia asks what he\u2019s strumming on his guitar, however, he quips it\u2019s the “If-the-Virus-Doesn\u2019t-End-Us-Then-Climate-Change-Probably-Will” Blues.<\/p>\n

And finally, Helm (Jaicy Elliot) takes a COVID-19 test to Koracick (Greg Germann) and finds him trying to solve the whole dang pandemic through a zombie video game<\/a>. Back at the hospital, she tells Teddy (Kim Raver) that Koracick is in bad shape. Teddy goes to visit him, but he doesn\u2019t answer the door. What she can\u2019t see is that he\u2019s slumped against the front door, shivering and sweating. And in the preview for next week\u2019s episode, it\u2019s Koracick who seems to be in dire shape, while Mer seems to be on the rebound. (Does that mean the beach reunion party is over?)<\/p>\n
