What about Christina? Teasing Alex during lunch because he had become emotionally involved with Ava. Playing rook to pawn to queen or whatever with the old professor ~ you just know those two (Burke and Christina) are never going to be well married.
Or are they?
I loved Burke's response to Christina about the other doctor ~ that he was an excellent surgeon.
Burke will know that Christina already knows the answer to the suture question, too.
I loved it when George said Izzie's daughter was a real heartbreaker ~ but was looking at Izzie the whole time.
And I love the mommy theme that runs through almost every episode.
Dead mommy, fake mommy, real mommy.
So many kinds of mommies to be.
But I loved it that Susan stayed committed, for Meredith's sake, to establishing a relationship.
And what ABOUT Derek?
What is that, after he was shaken to the core by Meredith's near drowning?
And I loved the Chief, too.
Now, if McSteamy was going to try to become Chief through getting the Chief a woman...is Madison trying to become Chief through BEING a woman?
So, the theme this time was raw ambition ~ except for the mothers.
Even Izzy.
