Can we just admire how Alex’s eyes change in this scene? He went from quizzically looking at Cristina to the most hurt expression ever

[julidew]

This scene was ridiuclously good. It shows what an amazing surgeon Cristina is for deciding that secrecy does not go before her focus and attention to her patient.

Man! Back when grey's was actually super gooodd..

[waysoo]

amazing how calm dialogue can be so intense. incredible actress!

[sofialopezrojas]

Alex's face always makes me cry so bad😭😭😣😣 my izzex heart miss them like a maniac

Can we just bask in the glory of Sandra Oh’s acting. No dramatic tears or unearned pauses. And Grey’s actors have the extra challenge of acting with a mask over half their faces. But They Oh just killed it. I hope she wins the Emmy this year for Killing Eve. I haven’t been so magnetic yet been drawn to a performer since Julianna Margulies in The Good Wife.

it;s INSANE how good their acting is. even with masks on you can see all the emotions through their eyes

When I first saw this episode, I knew instantly that Cristina will eventually tell someone about Izzie's condition.
And I dont blame her. Afterall she did covered for Burke's trauma, she helped Izzie did Denny Duquette's echo and she helped saved Meredith's troubled friend Sadie plus she took the blame for their interns''s mistakes.

The thing with greys is when it was good it was actually exceptional....this scene is an example of exceptional acting....

[teniola]

Just imagine, if Cristina hadn't mentioned this before she proceed her solo surgery. Dr Bailey and Chief Webber would have been more pissed than ever with her.

[Sophiave]

0:59 the look in her eyes told the story before she even opened her mouth

[shlmy]

I miss the old Grey's The one I fell inlove with. The 5 Crazy Interns and now there's only 2 left. 😭😭😭😭

[rahmascorner]

What an inspiring surgeon, she respects her patient enough to do what she has to, to focus on the surgery and truly give it her all. This was a moment of growth.

I love Cristina. Sometimes you need to rip the band-aid off and stop protecting people. And she's never been afraid of honesty. ❤️

[Justsunny]

The fear in Alex’s eyes omg I can’t with Alex and Ozzie I loved them sooo much

[princessm]

Lol Christina has perfect timing with her information. Just like right before she assisted Derek in his surgery she told him Meredith was the doctor with the bomb patient

[islambarymenkom]

I lost interest in Grey's when she left .

[cayleerei]

Alex looks so heartbroken when I watched that scene I cried.

[teniola]

Dr Karez's eyes/reaction are so innocent and beautiful. That I just wanna hug him so tight and tell him that he's gonna be okay.

The way Bailey just slightly shakes her head, like she can't quite process what she's hearing, always gets me.
