Short Little Nuggest of Meredith, that's all anyone needs.

Well, Izzie get the quote of the week, in telling Meredith, to her face, that all anyone needs is short little nuggets of her. It's too bad she didn't warn McVet about that back in season 2, shit, Chris O'Donnell would have only been on for more than one episode.

This weeks episode involves a man on death row wanting to die in the hospital, and a little kid getting dead organs. Oh, and some short guy that got leg extensions only to be shorter. That part was odd. I don't get drop in plots like that, which essentially are just to make us remember the Callie is part of the plot. Also, Callie also wants a piece of the hot british chick, yet, no scenes together this week, at all. Hot british girl did have a great scene with Dr. Bailey, who may be losing her mind, but, that was about it for her.

In terms of losing her mind. I still do not understand the whole Denny/Izzie thing. I hope that she will dump Alex, soon, so that Kerev can win an emmy for the downward spiral he will take after said dumping, but, that's just me. If the point of her going nuts, is to let us know something is wrong with her, they should just have something be wrong with her, and not have Denny be a part of it. At all. I also think that ghost/dead/crazy Denny must KNOW something is wrong with her, given how he told Kerev "We need to talk." Is Izzie dying? Who knows.

I also sort of enjoyed Yang and The Journeyman this week. I say sort of because, again, the episode felt compressed, and he just shows up, drunk and tragic like. I get that he's a vet, and that he's troubled. But damn, Yang must have a thing for tortured souls or something. The shower scene would have been hotter, had they been naked, but, still, not bad. It reminded me of a shower scene between Bobby and Helen during season 1. Sadly, I could not find this on youtube, or I would have linked it.

The serial killer is awesome. Not only will he create the cylons, in a about a year on scifi, but, he is also currently trying to save a small child (without the help of artificial intelligence, and without being on Caprica.) I like his story line, in that, there is real conflict going on between Derek and Meredith that lets us see them, philosophically, as different kinds of Doctors. That is growth, good writing, and, well, great acting by Stoltz.

Kerev almost got the quote of the week at the beginning, when he said "She's holding that bottle of tequila like its a life vest." Guess why? Meredith likes to drink, a lot, she has a problem, so much so that Izzie had to hide it all before Derek's mother came over. (Which she never did actually enter the house). I love Tyne Daily, and think she is great in everything, however, I have to agree with McDreamy here. She BARELY said two words to McBitchy all day, and thinks they'd be great together. Odd. Want to know who she did talk to? Our girl Lexie.

How cute was Lexie in that t shirt, in her room, after she had properly been "taught", again, by McSteamy? You know, it was only upon a second viewing did I notice that Sloan was wearing what looked like a grey shit under his jacket when he left. That's right, she had on his t-shirt, and gave it back to him, and then he snuck out.

I will leave you with that final quote, from the two of them, cause it was so darn cute:

McSteamy: "You're 25 you're a fetus."
Sexy Lexie: "I am 24, I skipped the third grade."
McSteamy: "Does that feel dirty?"
And she just smiles.

If they ever take her off this show, it better be for her own spin off that would be 100 times better than that private practice shit.
