Ok, I'm sure she will do it, and I'm not sure what I think about it.... If we watch him as her father, it is a truth that she doesn't owe him anything, and I gotta say that I hate Thatcher as a character, but still, it's a human life, so I guess....
P.S. Does anyone think this might be the lovely storyline Shonda has prepared for Meredith????

Mer will definitley do it, she's too nice to just let him die, no matter what he did to her. I think she'll do it more for Lexie than for him. Should be a good episode!

I agree helen. Lexie is a spoiled child.
I personally don't think that Meredith should do it. Like in the promo, Derek said she doesn't owe him anything. If anything, just a trouble childhood but maybe this will finish her daddy issues. And he hit her. Ugh.
I do think that Meredith will do it. She's able to show compassion to a SK, she'll do it to her father. As disgusted as I'll be by it, it's a grand gesture of her. The only thing I hope is that she'll do it out of HER wishes and not Lexie's or Thatcher's.
I can't help but to think of the case in S2, when the teen had to donate his liver to the father after the car accident but they'd leave their home since he and his mother were abused by him.
I hope she terminates the relationship with him.

Lexie is the meanest person in Grey's.She demands everything!!She should have nothing.Just eliminate her from the show.
Mer shouldn't do it but she will do it because she has a grandiose character.
Lexie is more disgusting now.

I don't really thinks that she should do it. But if she don't she won't have any parent alive, either would lexie and molly. And I guess she would't have any sister left either. So I hope she do it and gets a little closer to her father and her sisters. I really think she needs a family, well she already have one, but one that she is related to.

Lexie don't understand when she says:" i'm asking you give me my dad" you remember that he is her father too. Mer don't it because he loves lexie for 20 years and more,but with mer , he's never been affectionate,He slapped her last time and then he must do a greatest apologize of Mer.I think that MER gives him a piece of her liver because she is a doctor and a doctor is a mission that is to save the life and the end SHE SAVED HIS LIFE.

I agree with those who said that he's still a patient and whether he was cruel in the past, it's irrelevant because being a doctor means saving lives despite what the person did. So she may hate him, but as someone said, this is a human life...right or wrong, she still has an obligation to save them, maybe not an obligation to Thatcher but an obligation to saving human lives.

how can you say that what if Thatcher dies???! what if a father dies? somebody's father...it's a human being, noone would let a human being just die, because i don't wanna help, and a doctor, would never do it
Mer is not that cruel

Hmmm....my father left when I was 4, and I never heard from him again. And I'm a medical student. Am I obliged to save his life should the need arise in the future? As a doctor, I am obliged to, as he is my patient. But I wouldn't see him as my father.

I think she should do it. This is human life...this isn't about resentments and letting people die because you are mad at them or because they were bad to you. I think she will do it and I think she should do it..Especially when she is trying to be whole and healed. Let go of bitterness and resentment and this could even start a healing relationship with her and her father. Remember he is an alcoholic and last we saw him he was in recovery and trying to make amends to BOTH Lexie and Meredith!

She will do it because she is a doctor and that's what doctor's do. She would do it no matter who it was and that is how she will look at it. Regardless of how he treated her as a child I doubt she would want the guilt of his death. She will do it as a doctor and for herself, not for him.

i think they will write it so mer does do the surgery for her dad but i only think it will pan out like that so that the next episode she can be home from work and we prob wont see her or we will only see her in bed to helpcover the fact ellen was prob 9months preg when these episodes will have been filmed!!
i think we will see her make a tough decision but ultimately she will help thatcher! plus i think this will lead to a MASSIVE story line later this season or maybe next where he gets drunk and we will see mer deal with fact that thatcher throws the transplant back at her!! im sure he is beyond help and i really dont like him!!! i think if ellen was pregnant in real life we might have seen a diff outcome but as she is i think we are more likely to see it xx

Mer will do it. She`ll do it `cause she is not the same as him, she is stronger and a doctor, and a doctor save lifes, so, she will do it.
If she doesn`t do that, she will regreat the rest of her life

I agree. She definately shouldn't do it. Certainly not for Lexie's sake. She's so annoying. They should have killed her off instead of George. Who cares if Thatcher dies? He's been terrible to Meredith. He abandoned her as a child, scared her for life and then accuses he of killing his wife and slaps her. I bet Meredith does it though, for Lexie (even though she shouldn't!) because otherwise she'd look cold and heartless and everyone would be mad at her.

I don't think she should do it!! He left her when she was five years old. What kind of father leave an inoccent child behind him no matter what Ellis did to him!! He never faught for her, never made an affort to find her instead he re-married and had 2 daughters and replaced her with a new happy and shiny family like he never had her.
Then he accused her of his wife death and slapped her in front of her boyfriend, bosses and co-workers!! He never apoligized or done anything for her why should she do something for him? He is a stranger to her or a sperm donar! She don't own him anything like Derek said in the promo. But I guess we have to see what Shonda decide.
