Private Practice returns for its fifth season next week, having yielded to a two-hour premiere of Grey's Anatomy last night. From the looks of the photos below, the GA spinoff will make up for lost time.

In "God Laughs," Sam, Cooper, Charlotte and Amelia team up to save the life of their friend Pete after he suffers a heart attack, with Cooper first on the scene (or so the photos below suggest).

Meanwhile, Violet, who was in the middle of leaving Pete and LA, is nowhere to be found, and Addison's desire to have a baby leads her to see Jake Reilly, her recent mystery man, in a surprising place.

How will it all play out and set the stage for the season? We'll find out in just six days.
