Kate Walsh is an amazing actress, she hasn’t played Addison in like 7 years and she really nailed this scene

[trullyfreak]

If there was ever a point of dragging this series for so long, this scene was it.

Well, Addison spent a life with Derek too and the pain she still feels is normal. It really broke my heart. He was her friend more than a husband.
Kate Walsh is a AWESOME actress.

The friendship between meredith and Addison that we all want and need 😭😭😭😭😭

[denko]

The closure we wanted for years. I'm glad they finally talked about Derek and Addison even met MerDer kids. They've come a long way and I'm so proud of them!

[farjadraza]

This scene was EVERYTHING! Kate Walsh is PHENOMENAL!

[bryantlydell]

This is a scene we’ve deserved for 6 years. ❤️😭 Wow.

[vincecabrera]

The elevator will always be Derrick's means of talking deeply to anyone. So monumental. 😭

[Rosannasfriend]

People keep commenting about “how far they’ve come”, but the truth is even back in the day they never had a feud and they never took out their pain on each other. That being said, it is nice that they’re able to actually forge a kind of friendship instead of just avoiding each other or being professional.

I love how Addison still has love for people that are no longer in her life. Her reaction to Mark dying, her reaction after Derek died when she was calling to check in on Amelia, to now mourning the death of Derek and meeting his children. It’s all heart warming and speaks to what kind of person Addie really is 😭

Her stopping the elevator was such a Derek moment.

[HaileypASMR]

You can tell Addison truly loved Derek, even after all this time, it’s in her eyes

[michaelnofuente]

This elevator scene reminds me of the bailey and derek scene in the elevator where he also had a moment of grief and bailey pulled the stop button on the elevator.

[lukycharm]

some people seem to forget addison and derek were married for a decade, substantially longer than meredith and derek (due to obvious circumstances) but addisons feelings are definitely valid. she lost someone she loved as well and though she’d spend her life with. this scene is so beautiful.

[denko]

This scene made me cry like a little baby. Look at how far they've come!

[sumaiyakhansezuti]

Derek was a big part of her life, they were married for 11 years and friends for even longer. Of course she would feel devastated being back here.
Addison is such an amazing character ❤

[enzomartinez]

This is giving finale season vibes and I think it is, still not get over Derek's death bringing addison back was so good, gave a lot of memories from old Grey's would love to see Izzie, Alex, Cristina and George for the final episode, I'm crying now...

[elaaaiza]

literally sobbing on this scene 😩😩😩♥️♥️♥️

[jtbubbz]

Low key wished they mentioned Mark too since Addison hadn’t been back to Seattle since before he died as well. I know that we saw her reaction in Private Practice, but that would have hit twice as hard but I’m glad that she and Meredith can talk about Derek without any animosity between them, they have both grown since they have first met, I’m excited to see how Addison fits back into the old and new cast :)

from not wanting anything to do with each other to that first hug to bonding in an elevator to letting her meet her kids, the development of their relationship is amazing
