What Did You Think of "Give Peace a Chance"?
Tonight's episode featured McDreamy, front and center, fighting multiple battles. And the Chandra Wilson-directed masterpiece was probably the best one of the year so far.
It was certainly compelling to watch him battle so hard to save Isaac - and continue squaring off with the embattled Richard, raising the stakes higher than ever this time.

I actually like Reed in the last episode. She is actually a good person.. I saw her like she wanted to hug or kiss Alex or something. We will see how long is Alex going to be the good guy!! I don't think Alex is going to take Izzie with open arms, when she gets back.
I loved Jackson too. He really is a good doctor and wants to be the best.. and he is so HOTT!! But thank god we didn't have Charles's screen time.

Nao,
Reed is nice but in the last couple of episodes, everyone has been on the edge and in here, she finally let her guard down, which I loved!
Can't say that I want them together or whatever but exactly in Derek's VO, the kindness of a stranger.
I agree that Alex shouldn't receive Izzie back that quick. He has fought for her, now let's turn the tables.

Fantastic episode - it was really well directed. I LOVED all the silence. And the framed post-it actually brought a little tear to my eye - I think it's the most romantic thing I've ever seen!
Also, I feel dirty for saying this, but I was really impressed with Reed this episode. Could it be that she's actually nice?!? I got the impression at the end that she was standing right infront of Alex like that to hide him while he cried (cos he was right out in the open). That's a really sensitive thing to do, especially for someone you don't know or particularily like.
Still can't wait for Izzie to come back, but Alex had better not just take her back with open arms. I never thought I'd say this but she really doesn't deserve him after running off on him like that(funny cos a few seasons ago it seemed like it was the other way around).
Unless of course, she has a really, really, REALLY good excuse. I can't wait to see where she's been all this time.

AMAZING. That was SO GOOD - great writing, great acting, and congrats to Chandra in her directing debut! Patrick is such a good actor, and I loved how all of the characters were still visible in this Derek-dominated episode. And yes, the diaper thing was an important comedic contribution to an otherwise-serious show.
Isaac, played by the phenomenal Faran Tahir - did anyone see IRON MAN???? - was a great character. I loved his story and how he talked to Derek about all of the loss and sorrow in his life before Derek tried for the first time, and I loved how Derek quoted him when he talked to the chief at the end.
Basically, GREAT episode. Definitely one of the best this season. Well done. (And Izzie not showing up - yeah, getting worried about Alex's reaction to her return.)

i forgot to mention alex. izzie has so much splainin' to do. when reed convinced him that he should go to the appointment i wanted izzie to be there so bad. and when she didn't show up i really felt i had a sense of what alex was feeling. and when he cried it broke my heart because he loves her. he loves her so much. but on the other end she feels betrayed by him and that had to hurt too. i can't wait for the moment they see each other and talk again. so well done. love it.

i loved this episode so much. i thought i liked lexie before but i freaking love her now. i can't believe she wore a diaper!! and christina not only encouraged her to do it but she was jealous that it wasn't her. i loved when she gave the idea an official hardcore because we all know that christina is the most hardcore of hardcore surgeons. i loved that derek puked. that was awesome to see someone so great so afraid. and the patient so at peace with everything. the only thing he was not at peace with was not feeling a sense of loss. if only we could all get to that point. and chandra wilson directed. the episode was definitely different from previous episodes. i wasn't seamless. it took you from moment to moment without it being choppy. and it had heart. it had so much heart. i loved the character isaac. i fell in love with him and his story. and the ending was so spot on. the rivalry between derek and the chief has completely intensified. but in that moment where th

I loved it! Loved how the whole episode was about Derek, but with everybody else was backing him up. It was really cool how everybody kept checking on him in the OR and standing up to the chief for him. Especially Arizona, so awesome! Loved the MerDer scenes, there were a lot more of them than I thought there would be. Loved Derek drawing on the wall to explain it to Mer, and the framed post-it...so sweet! The scene at the end with Owen and Cristina was really cool. Also loved the part where Lexie got to step in for Jackson, she's awesome! I couldn't believe it when the Chief fired Derek, though he obviously isn't really fired. My favorite part was when Derek told the chief to go home and sleep on it, the same thing that Issac told him. Can't wait for next week!

This episode was awesome. It was all Grey's Anatomy and we finally got to know the two new characters better. Although I'm a huge Izzie-Alex-fan I finally get to like Reed. But I really missed Izzie and the last scene with Alex was really, really sad and I felt so sad for him. Reed would be a good friend (not GIRLFRIEND!!!!!) for Alex or Izzie. I mean, Alex never really had a friend, in a way it was always Meredith, but I suppose after this episode it will change perhaps. And Izzie really needs a new kind and nice friend after she's lost George. And I think, somehow, Reed did understand, why Izzie went away and that's why she persuaded Alex not to let her go like this.
I really hope Izzie and Alex are going to sort this out! (After all the drama in their relationship and so many triangles, Izzie-Alex-fans just want them to be happy together!!! ( Seriously, there can be a lot of drama in a happy marriage (with embryos in the refrigerator and a daughter given free for adoption))
