Meredith and Dr. Shepherd have to use more than medicine when a young woman's traditionalist, religious father forbids her to have a life-saving operation. Meanwhile, George and Alex are forced to perform surgery under less than ideal conditions in an attempt to save a patient’s life, and its decision time for Derek and the two women in his life.

When a family arrives at Seattle Grace Hospital after a serious car accident, Alex learns that their injuries are only the beginning of their problems. Meanwhile, as Dr. Webber recovers from brain surgery, it seems that his wife (guest starring Loretta Devine as Mrs. Webber) has some concerns about the state of their marriage.

Some very deep secrets are made painfully public when Meredith's mother, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, is brought to Seattle Grace for a surgical procedure. Meanwhile, some frightening news about Cristina's health is brought out into the open.

Die Ärzte am Seattle Grace Hospital helfen Izzie, den Tod ihres Verlobten Denny zu verarbeiten und eine berufliche Entscheidung zu treffen. Auch Meredith muss sich darüber klar werden, wie es nach ihrer Beziehung mit Derek für sie am Krankenhaus weitergehen soll. Der Chefarzt wird von Ehefrau Adele zur Rede gestellt, weil er in der Klinik übernachtet hat, und George wendet sich um Rat in Liebesdingen an eine überraschende Adresse.

Mérédith et George sont très mal à l'aise après leur nuit d'amour. Bailey, qui est censée être en congé de maternité se voit forcée de traiter Addison pour un problème plus que gênant, et Alex devient jaloux de l'attention qu'Izzie porte à Denny, un de ses patients.

The nurses at Seattle Grace Hospital go on strike, leaving the doctors to fend for themselves; Meredith's mistake in treating an elderly patient is brought to light by the patient's friends (June Lockhart, Betty Garrett and Rae Allen) and Izzie treats a pregnant teen.
