And is Amelia in love with Kai?
Every once in a while, Shondaland likes to take her show on the road.
It’s important to experience our favorite doctors outside the walls of Grey Sloan Memorial.

Just when things get steamy, Charlotte barges into the cabin with a guy on her arm.
Nick’s niece is embarrassed, but her boy toy Silver takes the unfortunate turn of events in stride.
Yes, his name is Silver, which is way better than his former name, Oak.

This is totally normal.
Spoiler: Charlotte has dropped out of school.
First of all, she’s sick with the flu.
She also discovers an old, unopened letter with “Margaret” on the back.
Bonus, she has some quiet time to read the letter and reflect.
So, naturally, we see dead people.
Ellis Grey (Kate Burton) is there, reading Maggie’s letter.
At first, Maggie is elated to “see” Ellis.
Then things turn a bit sour when Ellis admits giving Maggie up was the best thing she ever did.
Maggie screams, and Winston leaves his exhilarating game of pretend ER to check on his wife.
He encourages her not to read the rest of the letter.
Meanwhile, Amelia (Caterina Scorsone) is with Dr. Kai (E.R.
Fightmaster) in Minnesota, writing a critical document for the FDA.
Thanks to a successful surgery, the Grey wing of Hamilton’s lab is buzzing with activity.
Kai is in the band.
Not only do they sing, but they also play the guitar.
And as the song plays on, we see Kai and Amelia take their relationship to new levels.
Both horizontal and vertical.
Back outside the cabin, Nick works out his frustrations by chopping wood.
Meredith tries to appease him by telling a fun story.
She used to be Charlotte!
She had “soulmates” and traveled Europe with pink hair.
Look how good she turned out!
Also, if Nick keeps trying to control her, he will lose Charlotte forever.
Nick snaps at Meredith.
She had a surgical genius mother.
Charlotte’s mom was genetically programmed to make mistakes.
Meredith lets Nick cool off outside and eventually talks with Charlotte.
She encourages the girl to have a challenging conversation with her uncle.
When the opportunity arises, Charlotte takes it.
She explains to Nick that she is not her mother.
He did a pretty good job of raising her.
No pills were removed from her clenched hands.
All drug use has been plant-based.
Nick pretty much nailed it!
And so has Amelia.
Well, so far, so good with Scout.
Ellis wishes that Maggie could have met Meredith.
She thinks they would have been good for each other.
Maggie is suddenly in her mother’s arms, and we all cry because Diane was so sweet.
He’s not used to someone else’s opinion.
Nick questions every decision he makes.
Nick claims he’s not patient.
Meredith agrees and reminds him that no one is patient.
He has a hard time trusting people.
And, when he’s falling in love, it scares him because it happens so rarely.
He doesn’t like losing control.
Meredith is left speechless on this one.
Winston did a great job navigating her through all of this, but I still worry for her.
Surely that won’t work, right?
I’m sure Grey Sloan has room for Kai and Nick.
Kai can bring their plants and stick them in that green room!
Plus, livers can be transplanted anywhere.
Finally, do we need to come up with a name for Nick?
I’m open to suggestions.
