Grey’s Anatomy
There ’s no shortage of tearjerking whereGrey ’s Anatomyis touch on , as the show ’s selling point in its first seasons was that it would have you bawling on the ground like a lady friend dump at the promenade at even time interval .
Although there are hundreds of times where the show had us yell , there have been a select few present moment that shatter our hearts . In this tilt , we have n’t put major focus on chief part deaths , as those were naturally concentrated on the feels . In its place , we ’ve placed grandness on these 10 metre that madeGrey ’s Anatomysuch an entertaining , but also pith - wrenching show to watch .
Dissolution Of George And Lexie’s Friendship
A very underrated friendly relationship is the one George and Lexie had enjoyed in Season 4 . The two had become better acquaintance without even gain it , and had been each other ’s support through their battle as houseman .
This made it all the more heartbreaking how the two completely broke off their friendly relationship in Season 5 , where Lexie accused George of subconsciously using her to become a resident and ignoring her obvious feeling for him . There on out , the two never became close again and George go bad without him and Lexie becoming champion once more . A sad end to what was once a lovely friendship .
Cristina’s Goodbye To Owen
Though we knew that Cristina would be exiting the series , there was still denial on the devotee ’ part that the couple of Cristina and Owen was at an end . The show kept us in blissful ignorance of this too by throw the two hook up before said difference , but the inevitable still came to pass .
In this scene , Cristina had to entrust for the aerodrome , and only got to share a final glance with Owen through a window as he was in the middle of trauma operating theatre . Owen ’s optic told the whole tale of his sorrowfulness , as he could do nothing but look yearningly at Cristina for the last clock time before she disappear forever from his sprightliness .
Derek Apologizing To Meredith
Things were blend in way too good for Meredith and Derek for it not to get messed up , and it did mess up in Meredith ’s expression when Addison arrived . Meredith had no prison term to process this sudden ontogeny in her life , as Derek took one look at Addison and in a flash apologize to Meredith .
Addison Feeling Blue
Addison herself had her mediocre ploughshare of lamentable moments , and it was in Season 3 where she reached her lowest point . Even the viewers who did n’t like her best had to finger sorry for her as we see Addison experience extra blue when she realise she had no more place in Seattle .
She was dump by both Derek and Mark , endeavor to begin a Latinian language with Alex - only for him to make clear to her he only saw her as physical pleasure - and then reflect that all her bad conclusion had catch up to her , leaving her very lonely and feeling fall behind with her place in the world .
That Elevator Scene
There was no good finale moment onGrey ’s Anatomythan that of Season 5 , where we saw the “ spirits ” of Izzie and George on either side of an elevator . It was clear that George ’s sprightliness was offering her to move on like he did , but Izzie ’s connection to Alex had her bust up with dubiety if she should go by .
The music had us bawl in tears as we saw two of our favorite characters seemingly about to choke and leave the show . George ’s fate was already sealed , and the implication was that Izzie would be bring together him very soon as well .
George’s Father’s Death
Even though he was a character relevant only because he was George ’s father , Harold became someone we cared in his own right due to how much of a nice cat he was . The scene that broke our hearts , though , was where he implore his doctor to take all the tumor from him out .
Being a man of the old ages , Harold was sure he could press his organs failing , despite the doctors telling him otherwise , and wanted to survive so that his wife of 40 class would n’t be alone . We want so very badly to believe in his fight , but ultimately Harold went down swing over to the cancer and knuckle under to his expiry .
George Writing ‘007’
George was missing for all of Season 5 ’s finale , but he made his wallop by unwrap to Meredith that he was John Doe at the fringes of end . And how did he go about doing it ? He had to “ write ” ‘ 007 ’ on Meredith ’s palm to indicate his identity .
Fans will remember that George hated being call 007 , which meant the poor guy ’s final act was using a quotation he despised so that his friends knew who he was before he buy the farm . The doctors ’ attempts at revive him failed , and George passed away .
Cristina And Burke’s Break-Up
So closely yet so far . Cristina was head toward some major compromise in her living - something we did n’t imagine was possible for her - but her momentary indecision cost her . Here , Cristina saw Burke walk out of her life because he figured she loved herself too much to be happy in marrying him , not realizing she had made up her mind to get hook up with the moment before .
The crowing kicker was see Cristina expose down when she get through their flat , as the realization dawned on her that Burke really had exit her high and dry . At that time , Cristina ’s world had come dash to a freeze .
Richard Crying Over Adele’s Death
When Adele ’s Alzheimer reached its worst point , Richard figured he would go out her alone so that his constant comportment would n’t give an already mentally disabled creative thinker more emphasis , but he realise he was doing the untimely affair by basically abandon his married woman .
We saw Richard realize how badly he had handle Adele in their marriage when she passed away , as he stood with tears in his centre at Bailey ’s wedding , not want to smash the day for anyone by unwrap his wife ’s death , but being wracked with both guilty conscience and sorrow .
Izzie Crying Over Denny’s Death
The closest anyone could have gotten to a “ Happily Ever After ” onGrey ’s Anatomywas Izzie , who almost had it all for a few inadequate 60 minutes . deeply down , we knew Denny would definitely perish for Izzie ’s story to continue , but it did n’t make the view of her break down by his body any less sad .
Weirdly enough , even sadder to see was when Izzie was n’t squall , and seemed to be waiting to die next to Denny herself , as she lie on the bed with an eerie calmness . It was the calm before the violent storm , but fans had been crying way before Izzie commence cast tears .
