Wow. First just let me say that after watching Sunday night’s episode, I long to work in a place with as many love triangles, rectangles and even octagons as the hospital in this television show.
Everybody loves everybody. It seems like everybody is having sex with everybody else. There was even a patient on Sunday’s show whose medical problem was uncontrollable orgasms.
Here’s the problem: Dr. Grey, the annoying and mousy Dr. Grey played by Ellen Pompeo, still loves Dr. Shepherd. He loves her. But he’s with his ex-wife, whom he left because she was cheating with his best friend. His best friend showed up in Sunday’s episode professing his undying love for Dr. Shepherd. Not him, her. She said she loves Dr. Shepherd, but seems well aware that he doesn’t love her. So she might still love the old best friend of her husband with whom she had an affair.
Now Dr. O’Malley, the sweetheart of the show, finally told Dr. Grey he loves her. That he’ll never leave her. That he always wants to be with her. As Sunday’s episode ended, the two of them were alone in a bedroom _ next so surgical rooms bedrooms are highly popular on this show _ and Dr. Grey was taking off Dr. O’Malley’s shirt. I don’t think it was to do a chest exam.
What this show has taught me above everything is that medical interns and residents are probably the horniest creatures on Earth. I’ll be watching next week to see who sleeps with who.
And I repeat, this stuff does not go on at The Wichita Eagle.
