I will definitely be watching tongiht - popcorn, soda and all. I would like it if they ended the Izzie sotryline and bring back Burke. I think Christina and Owen are ok, but Burke understood her and was better suited for her. I would like for them to deal with the fallout of him leaving her at the alter and somehow find their way back to each other. Burke could be recast at this point, or just bring back Isiah Washington.

Well, Thursday showed us what is coming up. Owen will go to Derek or to Meredith to see if what Alex said is true. Derek will be furious but he will not divorce Meredith. They will lose their clinical trial but the Chief will not fire Meredith because she made sure Adele got the active drug to help her. He will see she was trying to save Adele. I do think Kipner will end up HIV positive because they made sure to point out the blood spill on her. I would be surprised if she didn't. It will be between her and Alex for the Chief Resident because she is so organized and invented those sheets so that the mistake that she made when she first came to Seattle Grace can't happen again. And as we all saw Christina isn't mad at Owen. At the end of the show she said she was going to be the best Surgeon ever. She would have floundered at it just as Callie did when Bailey took over years ago. No way they will get rid of Bailey. She is too important to the show!

No single event will affect all three. Each one has their own major event. Mer may lose her job and possibly a seperation from Derick. Christina is fine with not being Cheif resident but finds out she is pregnant and does not want a baby. Alex ratted out Meridith to Hunt and feels guilty and Lucy took his job in Africa. Alex loses a friend and the next love of his life.

I love GA since season 5. Mer sustains all story but they are all wonderful. Cristina is amazing and she and Owen are sweet.

I think Izzie and Burke will be back. I wonder if Adele will die because of the switch and Meredith will feel guilt over it and tell Derek who will be upset because she screwed up the trial. As one of the previous poster's wrote, I wonder if Izzie does die and then Alex will get Chief Resident, so it's a double edged sword. I also think Kepner could have HIV since she was exposed to it as an added twist.

I think the thing that affects all 3 of them is that Izzie dies... and as her Husband Alex is notified and tells the other 2... cos Shonda did say earlier in the year that they were going to round off the Izzie-Alex storyline and that it didn't necessarily involve Katherine Heigl returning to the show...

I think Kepner will get Chief Resident, Cristina of course will be mad, Alex is gonna snitch to the FDA, and Meridith will possibly lose her job considering the drug was given to Adele so the Chief may step in and take the flak for that action. On this show anything can happen. But I agree, if something happened to bailey it would affect them but that would affect everyone also.

Can't wait to find out! Looking for to wedding and all that mess that will raise. Good call on possible emotional impacts but I think the producers are hiding something up their sleeves.

If anything happened to Bailey, then it would affect more than Alex, Mere, and Christina.

I have a feeling you're right about the Meredith theory...which definitely worries me, but at the same time...she is essentially the star of the show so if she lost her job, I don't know how they would play that angle. UNLESS, they do adopt the African baby and she becomes stay-at-home-mom.

Luckily we only have one more day til the next episode!

If something has happened to Bailey it would affect all three
