This Episode begins with Owen and Amelia, they are having sex with each other. Sofia wants to go back to New York, she tells this to Arizona. Richard and Catherine caught Jackson and Maggie kissing. Noah has seizures, he will need brain surgery. Jackson, Catherine and Richard perform Danielle her surgery. April kissed Jackson. Arizona tells Sofia that she is really happy with her. Solid Episode of Grey's Anatomy Season 14, this was not so good. The Season beginning was so good. Why is the level going down right now, give me some good Episodes of this great show. Meredith is not much involved this Season, sad to see!

We find ourselves past the halfway mark of the 14th season and we step back and realize we're not going anywhere. The storylines are fraying at the edges and one of the best parts of the show, the medical stories, have suffered as well. The characters have morphed from an eclectic group of the best of our society (in terms of intellect) into boring caricatures. Everything, even the medical cases, carry some "message" we're supposed to "get." Grey's has always had some of that, but now it feels like they stop and look at the camera every five seconds to make sure we get it. It's like being beaten with a hammer and the perpetrator isn't sure we feel it so he beats harder.

I cannot find myself caring about the sputtering Pierce and Avery romance. Arizona seems like she on cruise control. She has one role on the show and they use it whenever they need to throw that switch. The new crop of interns this season have gone nowhere. "Glasses" is supposed to be the comedy relief, I'm guessing, but he's terrible.

This episode focuses on the boring Pierce/Avery sex dance, Kepner's decline into debauchery, madness, irresponsibility, and the continuing revelation that she knows nothing about the faith she claims to have professed and practiced since childhood. I suppose this is because the writers have a very uneducated view of it and impose that on the character. They've been using her as their front to expose their low opinion of faith for too long (although, we all know they won't dare go near Dr. Quadri's faith). Kepner is the writers' puppet. OK, we get it. Enough already.

DeLuca has gone from mildly boring to his screen time being a good time to visit the restroom. Does anyone care about his old and current sex addiction to Bello? We're used to every member of the surgical staff making out in the closets several times a day, so giving these two a sex addiction to each other is uninteresting. I don't even care about their back-story. Karev and Wilson get engaged, but do we have hope for this proposed union? That's about the only intrigue left.

One shining element of this season, and this episode, is the continuing maturation of Meredith Grey. It's been refreshing. She has gone from the most annoying character to probably the most likable. Webber is likable and Warren is likable, but they seem to be fading (does anyone understand the "anesthesiologist to surgeon to firefighter" storyline?). Shepherd continues to be annoying, even post-tumor. Let's hope season 14 starts to get less soap opera and more dramatic as it limps towards the end.
