The atmosphere in the room suddenly changed when a nurse interrupted and told them about a woman who looks for her husband and said that the latter has two kids. At that time. Stephanie was suddenly taken back to her childhood and at last found a voice where she got the courage to speak up about the approach they should be taking and finally convinced her colleagues on how to save the patient. Stephanie explained that he actually has autoimmune disease which explains his unstoppable bleeding and so they were able to save him.

The next episode seems to be a lot more intense though. The so-called winter finale of "Grey's Anatomy" is suddenly considered as one of the most-awaited series installment in ABC in 2016.

Rumors has it that this finale will unleash the future of Dr. Alex Karev (Justin Chamber). Accordingly, truths will be unleashed and justice is bound to be served either to Alex Karev or Andrew DeLuca. Previously, Alex beat hard Andrew when he found out that Jo was in the latter's bed. And the verdict for what happened will be revealed in the next episode. He could either go to jail or get kicked out from the hospital.

According to reports, episode 9 will also have Karev make a big decision. Many hint that Alex will leave the show although this is not what others hoped for Justin's character, as the latter is one of the few original cast members of the show who made it until "Grey's Anatomy" Season 13.

Meanwhile, Richard still demands that Bailey explain why Eliza Minnick is in Grey Sloan. The latter is the newest cast member in the show, who is portrayed by Marina Dominczyk, and fans are already getting excited over the chemistry between Arizona and her.

While others leave, there are those who are rumored to come back. Reports suggest that Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh) might come bac. Although Deadline reported that Oh is confirmed to come back in small screens, unfortunately, the actress said that she will be part of "American Crime" and not "Grey's Anatomy." Nevertheless, the actress is not closing the idea of coming back to the show, although she pointed out that it would not be anytime soon.

"Grey's Anatomy" airs every Thursdays at 8 pm.
