“#Mer Wakes Up, and Two Docs Talk Marriage (RECAP)<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em> Season 17, Episode 11, \u201cSorry Doesn\u2019t Always Make It Right.\u201d]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have we seen the last of Meredith\u2019s (Ellen Pompeo) dream beach? She finally regains consciousness in the April 8 episode of Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em> (Season 17, Episode 11, aka \u201cSorry Doesn\u2019t Always Make It Right\u201d).<\/p>\n

But the biggest developments belong to Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) and Link (Chris Carmack), who start talking about marriage this week. Read on, Grey\u2019s<\/em> fans\u2026<\/p>\n

As the episode starts, Link\u2019s parents drop in unexpectedly, pulling up to Meredith\u2019s house in their RV. They offer to take the kids \u2014 all<\/em> the kids in the household \u2014 on a camping trip<\/a> to Mt. Rainier. They also hail Amelia as their future daughter-in-law in a not-so-subtle hint that Link should propose already.<\/p>\n

With Amelia and Link suddenly home alone, after winning \u201cthe lottery of silence,\u201d they start undressing for some midday action. But then Amelia starts crying. Misreading the situation, Link gets down on bended knee, thinking his parents\u2019 leaden hints about marriage got to her. But Amelia makes Link stand up again. She explains she just needs to cry. It\u2019s been months since she could feel her feelings without kids around.<\/p>\n

Amelia and Link start talking about the prospect of walking down the aisle, but Amelia isn\u2019t sure she\u2019s the marriage type, saying she\u2019s \u201cwired for self-destruction.\u201d She divulges that she thinks constantly about getting high, as the pandemic is a threat to sobriety for her and everyone in her support group.<\/p>\n

But Link tells Amelia he would marry her in a moment, saying the fact that she\u2019s only thinking<\/em> about getting high shows she\u2019s the \u201copposite of self-destructive.\u201d He gets down on bended knee once more, and again, Amelia tells him to get up. \u201cNot when I\u2019m confessing my darkest secrets and I have snot dripping down my face!\u201d she says with a laugh.<\/p>\n

At the hospital, Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and Cormac (Richard Flood) are working with a dad, Chris (Daniel Augustin), whose infant son, Arthur, is in heart failure. Chris\u2019 wife, Hollie, is at home, in a deep depression about the state of the world in general<\/a> and their son\u2019s condition in particular. A heart transplant isn\u2019t coming through, and Arthur\u2019s chest can\u2019t accommodate an artificial heart. Maggie urges Cormac to have the \u201cdifficult talk\u201d with Chris and Hollie, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s not giving up. It\u2019s letting them go on.\u201d<\/p>\n

But then Cormac gets an idea: They can fit in an artificial heart by taking out pieces of Arthur\u2019s heart. Chris is reluctant, but Cormac says that Arthur\u2019s survival chances are the same either way. So Chris agrees, and Maggie and Cormac get to work. And they pull off a successful surgery, giving Arthur a \u201cbattery pack\u201d of an external artificial heart that will pull him through until a donor heart arrives. Chris is overjoyed, and he video chats Hollie, who weeps tears of joy.<\/p>\n

The other patients of the week are Shayne and Karissa, the newlyweds that the Station 19<\/em> forefighters saved from a car wreck. When Shayne and Karissa arrive at the hospital by ambulance, Karissa is apologizing to Shayne. Turns out, she asked their rescuers to save her first.<\/p>\n

As the surgeons treat the couple, Bailey (Chandra Wilson) urges Shayne to cut Karissa some slack, saying that she was probably just scared. But Shayne tells Karissa he wants an annulment. At first, he found her self-absorption funny, but now he realizes that he deserves a wife who actually considers him.<\/p>\n

In the hospital waiting room, Richard (James Pickens Jr.) confronts Jo about her plans to switch from general surgery to OB\/GYN. How does he know? Meredith told him!<\/p>\n

Yep, Meredith finally wakes up, marking an upswing in her COVID-19 battle. And, as Richard realizes, Meredith was \u201calways listening\u201d to the goings-on at the hospital, even when she was unconscious. Sure enough, she heard Jo talking about her career plans. Luckily for Jo, Richard supports Jo\u2019s desire to switch specialties.<\/p>\n

Later that night, Owen (Kevin McKidd) has a heart-to-heart with Teddy at home. After weeks or maybe even months of resenting Teddy for keeping her romance with BFF Allison a secret, Owen has had a change of heart. \u201cYou tried to tell me the truth about your relationship with Allison, and I was awful to you, and I am sorry,\u201d he says. He tells her he\u2019s ready to be her friend again, if nothing else.<\/p>\n

Jackson (Jesse Williams) and Schmitt (Jake Borelli) spend the episode administering rapid COVID-19 tests in the hospital parking lot, and Jackson even gets out his credit card to get hotel rooms for people in high-risk living situations. But surgical intern Alma (Lisa Vidal) points out that his altruism is just a quick fix: She used to be a social<\/a> worker, and she knows these structural issues need a thorough app<\/a>roach. So Jackson hands her a legal pad and asks her to share all of her ideas. She has the plans; he has the wallet.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget that Jackson\u2019s ex April (Sarah Drew) left her surgical career to work with Seattle\u2019s homeless population and that we\u2019ll see April again this season. So we have a hunch that Jackson\u2019s foray into housing work will bring April back into his orbit!<\/p>\n
