The title of Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em>\u2019s May 27 episode\u2014Season 17, Episode 16, a.k.a. \u201cI\u2019m Still Standing\u201d\u2014is a bit of a misnomer. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo), who\u2019s still recovering from her COVID-19 battle, can\u2019t stand for long periods of time. And she\u2019s worried that her surgical career is over without that stamina. But then Bailey (Chandra Wilson) makes her an offer she can\u2019t refuse\u2026<\/p>\n

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em> Season 17, Episode 16, \u201cI\u2019m Still Standing.\u201d]<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the episode starts, Meredith is recuperating from her COVID-19 battle at home\u2014and telling Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) to get to work, since Amelia is covering both her patients and Koracick\u2019s (now that Koracick left for Boston with Jackson). But more on Mer later\u2014there\u2019s other drama to cover!<\/p>\n

Levi (Jake Borelli), for example, gets admitted into a vaccine trial, and his trial administrator is one Dr. Mason Post, who unabashedly flirts with him. But then Levi sees Nico (Alex Landi) in the hospital hallway, and Nico asks him for a relationship status update, since Levi has been distant ever since he told Nico that he didn\u2019t want to move in together. Levi says he\u2019s not sure he wants to be exclusive with Nico, but Nico says he wants him and only him.<\/p>\n

Mason eventually asks Levi over to his place, and later that night, we see Levi show up\u2026 at Nico\u2019s place. \u201cI panicked because I love you\u2014I\u2019m just really used to you not feeling it back,\u201d he says. But Nico definitely feels it back, so much so that he lights candles every night on the off chance that Levi will show up. \u201cI just want to make you tea and take care of you,\u201d he tells Nico. \u201cI never want to be without you, OK? I love you. I\u2019m in love with you.\u201d It\u2019s a romantic reunion!<\/p>\n

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

One of the patients of the week Skyler, a 25-year-old who suffered a head fracture and an intracranial bleed after a car accident\u2014and who doesn\u2019t wake up after Amelia operates on her. Owen (Kevin McKidd) suggests that Skyler is a lost cause, but Amelia is determined to save her, since she\u2019s a mother now and she relates to Skyler\u2019s father, who tells Amelia that he struggled with work-life balance for Skyler\u2019s whole childhood.<\/p>\n

Serendipitiously, Link (Chris Carmack) happ<\/a>ens to call Amelia while she\u2019s looking at Skyler\u2019s MRI, and as he plays guitar over FaceTime, Skyler\u2019s brain lights up with activity. Amelia realizes that she can get Skyler to activate different parts of her brain to answer yes-or-no questions, and Amelia lets Skyler\u2019s dad talk to her through the MRI speaker.<\/p>\n

Another patient this episode is Gwen, a woman in congestive heart failure. Miraculously, a donor heart comes through, and Gwen sails through the transplant process with no signs of organ rejection. Still, she complains of intense headaches and double vision, and the docs are stumped\u2026 until Richard (James Pickens Jr.) and Maggie (Kelly McCreary) realize she\u2019s faking her symptoms.<\/p>\n

Gwen finally fesses up, saying that she\u2019s been adrift since her husband died and her dog went missing. (\u201cI have friends here, the nurses and doctors,\u201d she tells the surgeons. \u201cYou tell me about your lives, and you don\u2019t get bored when I talk.\u201d) So Helm (Jaicy Elliot) gives Gwen her number so that they can talk whenever Gwen feels lonely, and Richard and Maggie even reunite her with her missing pooch.<\/p>\n

And the other patient of the week\u2014or perhaps the patient of the season<\/em>\u2014is little Luna, the orphaned baby Jo (Camilla Luddington) has been watching over. Luna has gastroesophageal reflux disease, and when she goes into cardiac arrest, Jo decides once and for all that she wants to adopt the little girl.<\/p>\n

Cormac (Richard Flood) wants to do a Nissen fundoplication on Luna, but Luna\u2019s social<\/a> worker, Carmen, rejects that plan of action. Carmen also tells Jo she\u2019s sorry Jo\u2019s adoption application was denied, and after Carmen leaves, Jo explains to Cormac that she was turned down because she didn\u2019t pass the background check. (Remember, Jo was a bit of a teenage outlaw.)<\/p>\n

Speaking of children, Link decides in this episode that he wants children of his own. But Amelia doesn\u2019t, which she tells to Owen and not to Link. She has her hands full with Link and Scout, she says, and she\u2019s at her maximum bandwidth. She\u2019s not even attending her meetings these days. And when we last see Amelia, she\u2019s lying to Link about being stuck at work\u2014when, really, she\u2019s hiding out at Mer\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

In more romantic news<\/a>, Maggie spends the episode feeling ambivalent about her wedding to Winston (Anthony Hill). (OK, that\u2019s not so romantic, but bear with us.) She loves Winston and wants to marry him, but she\u2019s just feeling iffy on the wedding plans. But then she realizes that she\u2019s been waffling because she knows her late mom won\u2019t be there. So she proposes a smaller wedding. And it\u2019s a good thing Winston happily agrees, because his mom and her biological dad hop out of a limo parked in the parking lot!<\/p>\n

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

OK, back to Meredith. Meredith has spent weeks at home by the end of the episode, trying to get stronger and not making much progress. She even gets winded lifting her kids, as she tells Bailey, and she\u2019s worried about lingering brain fog and fatigue.<\/p>\n

But Bailey gets an idea: She wants Mer to run the residency program instead of Richard. Richard has too many jobs, since he\u2019s also operating and acting as Chief of Chiefs, and Bailey knows he\u2019ll retire at some point. Plus, Bailey knows Mer is passionate about racial equity, and she fully expects Mer to \u201csandblast\u201d any bias out of her students. And when Bailey presses for an answer, Mer says, \u201cAm I allowed to say yes?\u201d<\/p>\n
