But then you get one of those episodes, and you just know.
You know that they know youre out there.
Ive watchedGreys Anatomys Miranda Baileycentric (Dont Fear) The Reaper, and now I know that they know.
Finally we get the all-out Bailey-extravaganza we deserve.
After 14 seasons, Miranda Bailey has earned an episode all to herself.
Bailey raised those baby interns up right and she keeps peopleon track.
Weve seen other beloved surgeons enter hospitals that are not Grey Sloan and never return.
(It still hurts, McDreamy.)
Thankfully, Bailey comes out of this thing just fine (duh).
There is no such thing as too much Bailey and Ben goodness.
Well, tonight Bailey is more than just the thunder, shes the whole damn storm.
She is Doctor Miranda Bailey and she is having a heart attack.
She knows she is having a heart attack, but the initial tests show no signs of one.
It could be indigestion.
He wants to know if there are any major stressors in her life.
Has Dr. Maxwell ever seenGreys Anatomy?
Instead of listening to his patient, Maxwell sends a shrink.
The psychiatrist is even more condescending, if that is possible.
Thats how Bailey rolls, you guys.
Shes not letting this guy anywhere near Bailey with a scalpel.
She is furious that Bailey had to fight for her own care.
Before Bailey goes under, she finally asks Maggie to call Ben.
Ben gets the call and you guys,he runs.
He runs through the streets of Seattle to get to his wife.
I am a sucker for a dramatic run toward a loved one in trouble and this one is excellent.
All of the flashbacks to Bailey and Bens relationship.
Those two nuggets love each other!
Id also be remiss to not mention the flashbacks to Baileys youth.
Baileys episode voice-over focuses on the idea that no one regrets not working more on their deathbed.
But, Bailey asks, what if you love your work?
Isnt spending your life doing what you love, with the people you love, what really matters?
Its a nice insight into a character weve been following for 14 seasons.
Back at Seattle Pres, Bailey comes out of surgery just fine and is reunited with Ben.
In short, its perfect.
Bailey tells her mom that she had surgery, but that shell be okay.
Mrs. Baileys response is simple but moving: I know you are.
Shes another person who really needs to catch up on herGreyshistory.
Its streaming on Netflix, guys.
Bailey lets her sci-fi geek freak flag cry.
What was your favorite Bailey flashback?
That episode still haunts my dreams and I need no reminders, thank you very much.
But those giant glasses on all the tiny Miranda Baileys.
What in thehell,Greys Anatomy?
