'Grey's Anatomy' 'Give Peace a Chance' Recap - The Mother of All Tumors and Diapers

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 20:41:08 +0000

You know it's a tumor-centric Grey's Anatomy episode when scary sound effects reverberate when people discuss the mother of all tumors / the great white of tumors / the you-can-retire-on-this-tumor tumor. On "Give Peace a Chance" the hospital's lab-tech Isaac has an inoperable tumor and everyone is thrilled / amazed at it, probably in spite of themselves, since a tumor's supposed to be a bad thing, right? But Derek's (Patrick Dempsey) hubris / determination is at an all-time high, so he's up to the challenge of taking on a nearly inoperable tumor. The Chief (James Pickens, Jr.) obviously won't hear any of it and points this out to him quite emphatically. Unfortunately for him, the rest of the hospital - most notably Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) and Bailey (Chandra Wilson) - are all in Team Derek and stopped short of tackling the chief just so he wouldn't interfere with the 10-hour super surgery.

Grey's Anatomy: Preview of Episode 6.7 "Give Peace a Chance"

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:22:58 +0000

Following the harsh, harsh last episode that ended with two casualties - one dead, one fired - tonight's Grey's Anatomy will probably try to move forward and settle their differences. At least that's what can be readily inferred from the title - "Give Peace a Chance" - and the lack of bickering from the preview clips. Yet with Mer (Ellen Pompeo) out of commission because she's recovering from surgery (on-screen) and bonding with new baby (off-screen) the spotlight is cast on her hubby Derek (Patrick Dempsey). News has it that McDreamy is even taking over voice-over duties for this episode.
