As I watched the episode I've literally paused on the title credits for the first time, shocked (in a good way ) to see Denzel Washington had directed the episode. Instantly my expectations stepped up.
My favorite Grey's episode possibly in all 12 seasons & Denzel knocked it out the park!
We've been so used to having Meredith's (Pompeo)voice narrative carry us through an entire episode. It was oddly fresh having the silence carry you for a change. I must say Pompeo's performance in this episode trumps all; it was a powerhouse episode for her.
I would like to mention though that Justin Chambers' performance as well was endearing. His character's friendship with Meredith came through as transcendent.
At the end of the day what we needed to take away from this episode is that real recovery only comes through forgiveness; for oneself and the people who've wronged you! And words weren't needed for that.
