My favorite song of Sinead’s was “Jealous.” I heard it for the first time when I was watching Dawson’s Creek, and I’ve loved it ever since.

What a haunting, thrilling, tragic piece of cinema. I couldn’t move after it was over. I had to sit. I had to process it. I had the chance to see this on 70mm, and I cannot recommend it enough. It was captivating to watch on screen. The Trinity Test scene may be the greatest piece of filmmaking I have ever seen on the screen. The performances were top notch. Everyone was fantastic in their roles. I loved playing the game of “which actor was in the Batman trilogy?” Give Cillian the Oscar. He was Oppenheimer.

I loved this episode right up until the ending. Who in their right mind would let their child ONLY apply to Ivy League schools???? That is so unbelievably stupid that it took me right out of the episode. WTF? There wasn't even a Stanford, Duke, UNC-Chapel Hill, or Northwestern thrown in there!

I couldn’t agree with you more. My American Studies class went on a field trip to NYC when I was a junior. We all definitely had more than one hotel room. We gathered in the hotel lobby and not a bedroom. So weird! We also had chaperones. Sometimes, they’d say, “ok you have two hours to explore SoHo. Be back in X spot by 2,” but to be left alone for hours on end? No. Also, when we went, we saw two Broadway shows. No way would a trip to NYC not include a Broadway show, so it was ridiculous that only the teachers would be going. Finally, if anyone did act up, it was clear that the offender was going to be the one going home, not anyone else. No fucking way would you be able to exchange tickets for an entire class at the last minute. Our parents would’ve stormed the school, LOL.

Devi having to pay for her own trip to NYC was beyond stupid. Totally unrealistic. No way would Nalini let something so important be financed by her daughter.

One of my favorite scenes

This really needs to be emphasized. I am seeing a lot of people coming down hard on actors for filming not understanding that if they do not show up, they will be SUED.

What happened on AMLT?

Yeah, it was super fucking weird. It also seemed cliche. I had no idea, so thank you for sharing. Personally, I thought that they were going for a “dental health is important because it can impact the rest of the body — including the heart — if left untreated, so why is dental separate from health insurance” type of storyline. Like, why on EARTH wasn’t Addison a co-winner with Bailey????? I was expecting to see Addison pop out and accept an award as well, but nope! Utterly ridiculous! Bailey’s done good work, but Addison has made way more sacrifices, IMO. If I were Addison, I’d be furious. I got whiplash from that. She left him. What the hell was she expecting? Right? Like, Girl, WHAT?! You…left him. I am so glad someone else recognized him! Hello, Dorian! On another note, I liked how Kwan’s patient story in part one had a little bit to do with the actor’s background. Shum was born and raised in Costa Rica, so he knows Spanish. The idea of Teddy covering for Winston was so fucking stupid. Do you who would cover the Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery? The ASSOCIATE CHIEF and/or Vice Chair of Cardiothoracic Surgery. What the fuck? This show… Please don’t let Nick leave. We need more adults at Grey Sloan.

Twenty years old?!?! If you'll excuse me, I need to go yell at some kids to get off my lawn.

This was an excellent episode and had me weepy at certain parts, particularly the Lady Danbury and Lord Ledger scenes. I can forgive the affair because marriages were arranged at the time, and they looked so happy. I loved it when Agatha decided that she was done being on the bottom; she wanted to be on top, damn it! And Lord Ledger looked so pleased! The kid actor for Lady Danbury's son is adorable. Such a little man, having to grow up much too fast. Charlotte kicking out that quack doctor was amazing. It should've happened much soon. I LOVED the scene between older Charlotte and her son at the wedding. It was such a rare moment of affection (as opposed to sorrows, sorrows, prayers) between mother and son, and I loved seeing the glimpses of young Charlotte in older Charlotte. "Love is determination" -- what a great line. Shonda's in her bag with this show, IMO. Needless to say, I adored Violet in this episode. It is okay to want things, indeed.

Ja… 🤦🏽‍♀️

Nick is one of the best new characters that they’ve had in a while. He acts like an adult, and they actually bothered to develop the character. I appreciate that. I also hope that he sticks around next year. OOF. Why did you remind me of Riggs?!?! I agree that I am also enjoying the new cast. However, this still needs to end soon. From working in a hospital, I can say — at least in my department — it is normal to have two chief residents. It’s mostly administrative. They were actually being accurate, for once. Same. Agreed. Link/Jo — shit or get off the pot

Owen was such an ass this entire episode. Do they want us to hate him? As far as the Yasuda plot line, while the grant is a nice idea, they ALL need salary increases. Right now, there are hospitals all over the country that are having residents vote on being unionized. It has its perks and drawbacks. I would actually like to see that portrayed on this show. It would be timely. However, I don’t know if they have the talent to pull off the nuances of the situation.

Why?
