And Schmitt blames himself for killing it.
Most of the staff at Grey Sloan Memorial have decisions to make.
Lines have been drawn, and the choice to step over or stay put is looming.

It seems everyone must answer the question, “Are you in or are you out?”
Take Schmitt (Jake Borelli), for example.
Someone he admires died on his table from a mistake that could have been prevented.

Unfortunately, the exercise isn’t positive for Schmitt.
He escapes the room as it slowly melts into minor chaos.
It seems the infamous Webber Method is the shiny new line that has divided surgeons and residents.

She’s Meredith Grey, for goodness sake.
Of course, she’s performing exotic surgeries that make all the other people in white coats jealous.
However, Nick (Scott Speedman) is just a phone call away.
In a nutshell: Grey Sloan is on the struggle bus.
Schmitt has crossed the line to the dark side.
He breaks up with Nico and vows never to return to medicine.
Instead, he will live forever in his mother’s basement, playing Fortnite.
And then there’s Hayes (Richard Flood).
Is this the last time we will see McIrish?
Instead, he praises her husband for willing to risk his own life for Hayes.
She’s known Owen (Kevin McKidd) for twenty years.
Especially when she sees Owen give Noah’s wife his keys to retrieve something from his truck.
Jo doesn’t balk at Amelia’s assumption.
Instead, she asks Carina if casual sex with a friend is a bad idea.
The friendship will never survive.
It won’t matter if Link is run out of town for assuming things based on someone’s BMI.
He quickly tells a patient that she might feel better if she loses a little weight.
Bailey explains why we still have BMI calculations on medical charts.
The audience is treated to a mini TedTalk regarding insurance companies and astronomical premiums for those with high BMIs.
The more you know.
Link needs a drink after his day in the OR.
(Hint: sex.)
Ironically, Link takes it well.
I feel we will be crisscrossing this line for many episodes to come.
This leads us to the last line.
Will Nick suck it up and move to Seattle already?
Both admit they don’t want to leave each other.
I see no reason my boy Scott Speedman can’t dive right in and be a regular.
Do it for Bailey, Nick.
Do it for the show.
But most importantly, do it for me and the many hours I clocked watchingFelicitymore than once.
I’ve missed you.
