I like this show. The characters and actors are terrific. The tie in with Grey's Anatomy makes for a much broader universe for the show to live in.
That being said this episode sucked. First and foremost, the water off Seattle this time of year is pretty much 50° F. Survival time in water that cold is 1 to 3 hours. Ben and Dean had to be in that water for more that 6 hours to have washed up on the beach the next morning. They would have joined Jack and most of the Titanic's passengers at the bottom of the ocean well before then. Should have given them a large piece of wood to float on.
I realize the situation was created to advance the BLM issue via the conversation and flashbacks but I was completely distracted by the phony alone in the ocean scenario.
I think it's fine to keep the issues alive in the show but don't ignore everything else that makes the show popular doing it. Jack Dawsonz.
