I really wasn't impressed with this ep.
The ridiculous medical storylines showed that it really isn't a medical show, it's a drama show that takes place in a hospital. Basically an hour version of Scrubs.
I really love Lexie though. It's funny, because after the first episode I thought she was an annoying ditz, now I just want Meredith to get off her soapbox and accept the poor girl. She can't fight her biology, it's not her fault you've got the same dad or that your dad left your mom to marry and have a family with hers. When Lexie was hiding in the closet she looked so cute!
The Alex/Lexie thing was predictable, and I really wish it hadn't happened, just because I totally agree with what Alex said to Lexie in that scene outside the hospital. But what does Meredith have to be angry about? She never liked Alex. Okay, so he brought your sister to your house and you don't like your sister, but Alex isn't exactly the first guy you think of when you think of guys that will respect your feelings like that. And it's not like Lexie's a bad person so Meredith had no logical reason to not want her there.
The Geroge/Izzie thing was just pathetic. That's what it's becoming, which totally sucks, because I love Izzie and I love their friendship. The scene at the end was especially pathetic.
I did, however, appreciate that scene with Izzie getting the patient to tell her what birds all the people in the observation deck would be to distract him. It was sweet.
And when Dr. Hahn said McDreamy and McSteamy were a couple, that was too funny! I don't think I really like Dr. Hahn, and it's not because she's being mean to Cristina, I'm actually glad someone can get the upper hand with her, it's just that she's not at all sympathetic, and so I can't sympathsize with her. But maybe she'll grow on me, I don't know.
