Grey's aficionados will certainly be familiar with the term 'you're my person,' as it could well be the highest compliment Meredith or Cristina ever bestowed on an individual. After Cristina left, Alex Karev became Mer's 'person,' but is impossible to forget where this phrase originated. All the way back in Season 1, Cristina became pregnant with Burke's baby and wanted to get an abortion without him knowing. Having been required to list an emergency contact for the procedure, Cristina put down Meredith's contact details.
When she told her best friend that she was indeed her 'person,' it was obvious that this friendship would last the mile. Anyone who's ever watched an episode of Grey's Anatomy knows that Grey-Sloan is an extremely dangerous place to work. You never know when you might get hit by a bus or get caught up in a random shooting. As they were both mainstays on the show, Meredith and Cristina had their fair share of disasters to contend with. During the first 10 seasons of the medical drama, they had to face a bomb in a patient's chest cavity, a ferry crash, a shooting, and a plane crash, to name but a few.
In later seasons, the show even made reference to the unlikely number of deadly situations by having Cristina leave in order to avoid any more disasters. The fact that their friendship has survived is a testament to Meredith and Cristina's unwavering bond. Meredith and Cristina made sure to support one another while never being afraid to let the other know when they thought they were making a mistake. While Meredith was worried about Cristina marrying Owen after the shooting, Cristina shared similar concerns about Derek on more than one occasion.
When Meredith and Derek got back together in Season 5, Cristina gave Meredith some home truths shortly before being karmically impaled by an icicle. She also gave Meredith some last-minute advice about her marriage before she left in Season It is the strongest kind of friendships that can survive the truth, and their friendship is still going strong today. Those two were hot! Afterward, it was as if they felt they owed it to Mark to keep up their relationship.
The gals seem fine these days, and we are all the better for it. They helped each other through hookups and true loves and surgical losses. Sometimes they treated each other horribly, sometimes not. But that time together as interns bonded them for life. We had surgeons who decided to procreate. Mer is such a good friend! Cristina Yang and Derek Shepherd A friendship born out of circumstance. Also, they went on a healing, post-shooting fishing trip together that one time.
That was nice. The ending to their story was very tragic, but their flame burns eternal. But when nobody could get through to Arizona after she locked herself in her apartment with her leg prosthetic, it was Bailey who found a way to get her friend back on her feet and into the hospital again. Real friends! Okay, she did it because Meredith told her to love him, but semantics. Callie Torres and Addison Montgomery Give it up for the girls who became friends because they slept with the same guy, rather than in spite of it.
Callie and Addison were a great match, and really gave Mark a run for his money which he so desperately needed. Thinking about this friendship makes me sad, though: Why did Addison have to leave us for good? If only. Only a true friend would let a person crash on his couch for weeks at a time, even when it meant facing the wrath of Miranda Bailey.
Cristina Yang and Callie Torres They lived together. They cried over breakups while eating cereal together. They went furniture shopping together.
Remember when Callie let Cristina cut her hair? Oh, the memories! Never were there two more badass roommates than Cristina and Callie. These two quietly built a nice friendship over years of trauma. When she returned after leaving Alex, Meredith fought for her to stay and seemed genuinely sad when she refused.
Richard Webber and Arizona Robbins A single lady in want of a wingman, and a trivia enthusiast looking to spice up his social life: Little did they know they would forge a lifelong friendship. Jackson Avery and April Kepner How you feel about Japril aside, these two were buddies long before they realized they were in love.
They navigated the new waters of Seattle Grace Mercy West together, and relied on one another while grieving the loss of their best friends. He says okay. George is set to retake his intern exam but helps Webber with a flood in the hospital caused by a burst pipe. Webber stays late to serve as a proctor so that George can take his exam. Callie is nervous about her date with Hahn and talks to Bailey about it, who says to set down some rules.
George waits for the results of his intern exam. Lexie is sure he passed and will take him out for a beer regardless. He gets the results and she opens them for him and says he passed. He says he has to go tell Meredith and Izzie and leaves her alone. Meredith is upset because when finding a place to put his clothes, Derek found her mother's diary and brought it out for her to read. He offers to move out and she says she wants him there and he can have her mother's den.
He says she needs her own place too and gives her the trailer. Bailey orchestrates a domino surgery where six patients give kidneys and six receiving. The person who gives a kidney gets one for a loved one. The surgery depends on each person staying in the program and when one drops out, the whole thing almost falls to pieces, but Bailey gets her to stay in the program.
During the surgery, everyone is horrified when Meredith drops a healthy kidney. They clean it up and the woman who received the kidney seems to be doing fine. Callie has Mark teach her how to have sex with women. George becomes a resident and Lexie is hurt that she didn't ask her to be his intern and she tells him so.
Meredith is upset because Derek is recognized for the clinical trial without a mention of her when it was her idea. Alex and Izzie decide to be exclusive. Hahn cries after sex saying that sex with Callie is so much better than with a man. Callie has sex with Mark twice and likes it just as much as with Hahn. He tells her she has to be honest with Hahn. She tells Hahn that she'd slept with Mark.
Callie and Mark go get a drink and he gives her advice about dating women. Owen Hunt begins work at the hospital and at first Cristina hides from him, but when he sees her, it seems he doesn't remember her. Later she asks him and he says that there were twenty in his unit that went to Iraq.
Nineteen of them died there. He's a different person now. Derek finds a box full of Meredith's mom's diaries. Izzie has to work on the man who'd she'd stolen Denny's heart from. He ends up in Denny's old room and Izzie sees Denny and he talks to her. The interns practice on each other and then cadavers until they are caught. They go back to practicing on each other. Owen is hard on Cristina but starts to see something in her that he likes. Hahn wants to report Izzie because she'd stolen the heart, and Callie says she shouldn't because they need to look out for each other.
They get into a fight and Hahn says that Callie is not a lesbian and then she walks away. Izzie continues to see her dead fiance, Denny. She talks to a Navaho man who says she needs to burn anything that belongs to him. She has Alex burn the sweater she'd made for him, but she can still see him. She touches him and kisses him. An old friend of Meredith's, Sadie, comes to the hospital as Cristina's intern. Cristina is jealous.
Callie breaks down after surgery because Hahn left without even saying goodbye. Cristina kicks everyone out of the room except for Mark.
Mark seems to like Lexie and Meredith tells Derek to tell him to stay away. Cristina catches the interns practicing stitching techniques on each other and tells them to shut it down. Owen gets mad at Cristina outside of the bar and then he kisses her. Denny tells Izzie that he's real and they have sex. Izzie gets called to the hospital and doesn't want to leave because she's afraid Denny won't be there when she gets back, but he promises he will. At the hospital, Sadie talks the interns into taking out her appendix, and when there are complications, Lexie gets Meredith.
Meredith and Cristina tell them to get Bailey and page the chief. Meredith and Cristina get into a fight when Meredith finds out Cristina knew the interns were doing sutures on each other. Cristina is mad that Meredith didn't stick up for her with the chief. Callie gets punched by a patient and Mark fixes her nose. At home, Izzie goes into Alex's room after apologizing to Denny who is in her room.
The attendings unanimously choose Cristina for the solo surgery, but she is on probation for not reporting that the interns were practicing on each other. The chief gives her the responsibility of choosing the second year resident to do the surgery.
She chooses Alex because he is the one who is the most prepared. We have high stakes here. Substantive, interesting fights — in life as in television! First, a topic on which our characters can reasonably disagree. And second, a reason why that topic is of personal relevance. Put another way, a good TV fight and again, a good life fight gets at these questions: Are we fighting about something meaningful?
