Grey's Anatomy Cranks Up The Sexual Tension Between Teddy And Cass
Thursday's episode of Grey's Anatomy might have been titled "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" — and thanks for getting U2 stuck in our heads! — but it sure looked like Teddy had happened upon something for which she didn't even realize that she'd been searching: Cass. The chemistry between the doctors, only one of whose marriages is the open sort, was off the charts. Did they decide that their one impromptu kiss wasn't enough? Read on...
TWO COUPLES CLASHED | As the episode began, Richard sided with Meredith that the transplant committee needed to be informed that Evynn's wife Tasha had Alzheimer's. Nick, on the other hand, was all for proceeding with the surgery. "At least one of you is fighting for your patient," Evynn cracked. Once Mer was alone with her significant other, she floated the idea that when Nick looked at Tasha, he saw a possible future version of her. But was that really the case? TBD.
At the same time, Bailey and Ben treated a librarian named Lisa who also needed a liver transplant. Though Miranda warned her husband to follow her instructions to the letter — his evaluations as an intern weren't looking too hot — he couldn't help himself. He even went so far as to offer to answer any questions that the transplant committee had about who should get the liver. "If I can help someone, I'm gonna do it," Ben told his missus afterwards, "and hope my boss can see that."

TWO RELATIONSHIPS WERE TESTED | After Molly suffered a grand mal seizure, Blue conspired with Lucas to get Amelia to consult on her case. When the neuro goddess realized what the residents were up to, all she did was scold them about the proper way to sneak patients into her department. (Go, Amelia! Go!) Ultimately, she recommended surgery, which was of no interest to Molly... until the amnesiac read about experimental add-ons that might restore her memory.
While Nora kept texting Owen, Cass showed up at Grey Sloan for her husband's colonoscopy or "harsh lighting and free coffee" or... something more? Sparks flew between her and Teddy. But when Altman invited Cass to a spa day to thank her for making her hospital-endowment slideshow, Beckman turned her down. "I'm trying to respect your boundaries," she said. "When you figure it out, you let me know." At EOD, both Owen and Teddy confessed that they'd been tempted and were unsure where they went from there.

AND THAT WAS THAT | After hearing from Simone about her grandma who has Alzheimer's, Nick had a stroke of genius: They could give Tasha two-thirds of the available liver and Lisa the rest, thus saving them both. "What the hell are we waiting for?" cried Bailey. "Let's go give everybody livers." Before the gang clocked out for the day, Richard forgave Meredith for keeping Catherine's condition from him. He finally recognized that Grey had done the best that she could under the circumstances.
Back in his and Mer's hotel room, Nick wanted to make something clear to his partner. He hadn't seen her in Tasha, "I saw myself in Evynn. You just gotta know that if I were in her position, I wouldn't stop fighting for you." Neither would Mer stop fighting for Nick, she said. OMG, "I think we just agreed on something." That's gotta be a first for these two, no?
