“So I’m guessing it’s fโk [Grey’s Anatomy] tonight for this bullshโt [NFL Draft],” one Twitter user protested.
“Why the Fโk would you put the fucking draft on 3 weeks before a finale and disturb the [Grey’s Anatomy] [Station 19] you don’t do this and disrupt a primetime show so close to the fโing finale and disrupt the flow of the show fโk all of you,” one exasperated fan tweeted.
The latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy left fans with plenty of cliffhangers for them to think about as they wait for next weeks new episode. “Head Over High Heels” saw Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) finally tell her children about her relationship with Andrew DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti).
The episode also other fan-favorite couples face serious obstacles, including Jo (Camilla Luddington) giving Alex (Justin Chambers) an ultimatum about her attitude since she found out the truth about her biological parents. After she was caught drinking on the job, Jo told Alex that if he looked into the reason behind her bad mood she would leave him for good.
Another couple to take a tumble during the episode was Levi (Jake Borelli) and Nico (Alex Landi). After the surgical fellow made a mistake during the surgery that cost him his patient’s life, Nico lashed out on his boyfriend just as he was about to be interviewed for his dream job in San Francisco.
While the fight was bad, Levi was seen buying flowers for his boyfriend at a flower shop in the final moments of Station 19, before he was distracted by fire Chief Ripley collapsing outside his injuries.
