This Episode begins with Bailey, she looks back on her childhood. Ben and Bailey brought Tuck to school. Bailey thinks that she has a heart attack, she is at Seattle Pres in a hospital bed. Bailey fainted at Seattle Pres. Richard wants to transfer Bailey to Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Bailey doesn't want to be transferred to Grey Sloan. Bailey tells her mother that she had a heart attack. Nice Episode of Grey's Anatomy Season 14, really great Bailey-Episode. This was good, Bailey almost died. But she is not yet to leave, great to see that she survived this really bad day. Curious to see if she will lead things at Grey Sloan now!

Tour de force by Chandra
lor_2 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Long-running TV series (think "NCIS" for example) find it hard to resist recycling old footage and characters for both nostalgia and dramatic purposes, but the technique has rarely been done better than this Chandra Wilson showcase episode.
It makes its central point forcefully, as doctor played by the often cast as ineffectual guy Mark Moses (see: "Mad Men") keeps mis-diagnosing Chandra, who knows better and keeps requesting the necessary tests to find out about her suspected imminent heart attack. The problem with women not being given the proper examination due to heart symptoms traditionally associated with those exhibited by men is a serious issue, and this segment points that out.
With good acting by the bench strength ensemble (series' current stars get a rest this time) we also get to see a half dozen of former stars pop up briefly in vault footage, as so many scenes from Chandra's earlier career are used in nearly "dying flash" fashion to illustrate her various stresses over the years. Childhood and teen action with well-cast thesps as young Chandra and her tough love mother add to the panache.
Like another Shondra Rhimes TGIT series and its recent handling of Quinn's supposed murder, the show cannot resist teasing the viewer mightily with so much emphasis on doom and foreshadowing that one waits in horror for the beloved Wilson character to expire, but a happy ending twist saves her to fight the good fight another day. I enjoyed being lightly bamboozled, and enjoyed the entire evening of TGIT and its famed plot twists and red herrings, all in service of many plugs for a new spinoff from "Grey's" concerning fire fighting (already a topic cluttering the airwaves) soon to replace the concluding "Scandal" show.

Constant chills

From time to time i forget what an amazing actress Chandra Wilson is because Miranda usually fades into the background for many episodes, but the last 15 minutes of this episode were giving me constant chills. Chandra was incredible. It's sad how award shows have forgotten that Grey's is still running, because performances like these are award-winning ones.
Men are patronising apperently

Warning: Spoilers
Lot of recycled footage. Many "new" characters for this episode that look down on Miranda that is so brilliant... Lot of boring backstory showing how special Miranda is. Characters we got to know for 13 seasons are now less and less likeable.
Pure comedy

The Grey's I know and hate.
m-4782610 December 2020
The one where the focus is on a boring character's backstory. And writers make other hospitals look cheap, and ran by doctors who don't have Grey/Sloan Memorial Hospital's staff greatness. That moment Maggie and Webber rushed into the ER, like they were their savior, was unbearable. These characters became so vain over the years, and not in the fun way they used to ten or so years ago. Just a bunch of punchable know-it-alls, that would be kicked out by Security. I don't know what this writing crew is thinking. It's like they are sabotaging their own work. Or maybe they actually think it makes for good TV?? Who knows...
