Grey’s Anatomy Made A Gasp-Worthy Reveal In The Season 19 Premiere, And Fans Were Shocked

Spoiler alert! This story includes spoilers for Grey’s Anatomy’s Season 19 best, “Everything Has Changed.” Be sure you’re captured up prior to you keep checking out!

Grey’s Anatomy started its 19th season in mad style, introducing five new residents in the consequences of an unusual Seattle twister. The natural catastrophe was a fitting background for an episode that needed to capture audiences up on what’s been going on at Grey Sloan in the 6 months considering that the events of the Season 18 finale, all while we were attempting to be familiar with the characters who are expected to be the primary focus moving forward. “Everything Has Changed” consisted of some great throwbacks to the 2005 series best, and there was one specific punch to the gut that left me and much of the fandom in shock.

Lucas Adams (played by Niko Terho) was presented as excessively arrogant, and he actually flubbed his very first task, when he notified the WRONG MOTHER that her boy was brain dead. After he tidied up his mess, he was permitted to scrub in on Nick Marsh’s triple organ transplant, prior to which he poignantly stated, “It’s a lovely day to conserve lives.” And as Richard Webber searched for at Amelia Shepherd and Meredith Grey in the gallery, Amelia nonchalantly stated:

I’M SORRY, WHAT?! There is another Shepherd in our middle! Lucas Adams, obviously the boy of among Derek’s other sis (besides Amelia, he’s got Nancy, Kathleen, and Liz), has actually followed in the steps of his late uncle, and oh my God, the prospective to revive numerous Derek referrals is providing me life! Amelia did not appear to have much faith in her nephew’s capabilities, however Meredith was positive that, like Amelia, Luke “Don’t call me Skywalker” Adams deserved more than the credibility of black sheep of the Shepherd household.

When Niko Terho was announced as part of Grey’s Anatomy’s new cast, his character was explained, per Deadline, as “identified to show himself as a cosmetic surgeon, similar to numerous in his household that have actually come prior to him.” So tricky! Social media blew up at the discovery, and it does not appear like I was the only one who blurted an audible gasp, if not some tears, like this fan: 

I indicate, sure, we anticipated some fascinating backstories from our 5 brand-new good friends, however a real blood family member of McDreamy? Well-played, Grey’s, well-played. It’s going to take a minute for all of us to process what simply occurred:

If we’re in for more Derek Shepherd stories, memories, referrals, and so on., this season, we are going to require some more white wine. Especially if this was your (extremely easy to understand) response: 

There were tips of the OG interns in the brand-new characters presented in the Season 19 best. Jules Millin (Adelaide Kane) slept with Link (Chris Carmack) ahead of her very first day, a la Meredith and Derek in Season 1. Benson “Blue” Kwan (played by Harry Shum Jr.) was aggressive, not being reluctant when informed to notify a household their enjoyed one had actually passed away, and comprising a story in order to encourage a mourning mom to consent to organ contribution. Cristina Yang vibes, maybe? 

Mika Yasuda (Midori Francis) put her foot in her mouth a number of various times, and Simone Griffith (Inventing Anna’s Alexis Floyd) exposed that her mom had actually passed away bring to life her at that extremely medical facility, however likewise had some quite humorous minutes that make me thrilled to see more. Also, yell out to Levi Schmitt (Jake Borelli) for a genuinely exceptional “Seriously?” in action to Meredith making him primary homeowner. My dark and twisty heart is pleased. 

We’re only simply starting, so we’ll be back next week, when the ABC medical drama returns at 9 p.m. ET on October 13. In the meantime, have a look at our 2022 TV Schedule to see what else is premiering quickly.
