Jackson, who is feeling extremely helpless after learning about his mother, needs to do something. No one’s willing to just wait until the elevators open to get Cece’s organs - there’s a real possibility she could die. Cece tells Maggie she’s scared of losing the best thing that’s happened to her. To help take her mind off of the wait, Maggie fills her in on the Jackson situation. As they are fighting to keep Phoebe’s body viable for the organ harvesting while also trying not to succumb to full-on panic attacks over plummeting to their deaths (Bailey has been teetering on the brink of a stress-related breakdown and is not doing well), Cece is up in the OR with Maggie and can tell something is wrong. Cece’s incoming organs were also trapped on an elevator, with Bailey and Helm. Meredith and DeLuca fly out of the elevator to figure out the status of Cece’s transplant. Those Grey Sloan elevators deserve a promotion after that sexual tension work. They go to kiss, finally, but … the elevator doors open. Has DeLuca ever made you swoon this much? HAS ANYONE? Here’s the thing, friends: Meredith studied Italian for three years, so she, at the very least, catches his drift. He obliges and tells her that when she finally lets him kiss her, he’ll never stop. Yet still, Meredith fights it - until she asks DeLuca to speak in Italian again. Now there’s more than harmless flirting going on in that elevator: they are getting to know each other. It’s a tough situation for DeLuca to grapple with. His father has a mental illness, and while having a manic episode he operated on seven people and killed four of them, but because of money and knowing the right people, he was never held accountable. He wants to confide in Meredith, but isn’t totally ready yet - so he tells her in Italian. In between all the “we really want to do this but we really shouldn’t” conversations, DeLuca opens up about his family and his famous, er, infamous surgeon dad. Once Meredith realizes there’s nothing she can do but wait, she relaxes a little and, dare I say it, she looks like she’s having fun with this boy who can’t take his eyes off of her. This elevator is doing it’s damn job tonight! Meredith and DeLuca are flirty and cute and left me wondering how much squealing is too much squealing for an adult human woman.

Meredith gave birth in a blackout, so she isn’t scared, per se, but she understands the power that hospital elevators have over people’s love lives and is wary of being trapped there with DeLuca. When the power goes out, Meredith and DeLuca are stuck on an elevator. Cece, of course, is the matchmaker who has been helping Meredith live her best life again by squeezing all the joy out of it and also maybe the pecs of DeLuca and/or Link. If you need a refresher: Meredith is on the clock trying to harvest some organs from brain-dead Phoebe (remember poor Phoebe and the selfie stick?) in order to give beloved Cece a heart and kidney transplant. Otherwise, yes, I was into all the insanity going down at Grey Sloan as the giant windstorm raged outside. Okay, I was not, nor will I ever be into the Betty stuff, but Amelia ends up shipping her off to rehab, so fingers crossed we won’t have to deal with that for some time.

Not only are there three elevators full of drama, but also Jackson dealing with Catherine’s diagnosis, Nico and Schmitt ambo-banging, a Karev and Bailey scene that will ruin you, Webber helping Betty, and did I mention the thing about the guy’s legs getting chopped? I was into all of it. Perhaps that whole “distance makes the heart grow fonder” bullshit is actually true, because this episode had so much packed into it, and yet I wanted more. Grey’s Anatomy is a precious gift that I don’t think we treasure enough.

I’m talking, of course, about the fact that a man’s legs almost get chopped off by an elevator. Hello! Did you miss Grey’s Anatomy during its unbearably long hiatus? Great, because the mid-season premiere wastes zero time getting back into the Greys-iest Grey’s drama you will ever peep your eyes on.
