I enjoyed the season finale, to a certain degree. I think that Callie getting Chief Resident was way too random to be realistic, I really don't want T.R. to leave because he and Sandra Oh are the best parts of the show (I'm thinking there might have been a mix-up in the test results, but that might just be too optimistic for Grey's), and I still think that Burke asking McDreamy to be best man but not putting George in the wedding party at all didn't make very much sense. Please, please, please let there be no O'Callie baby so that O'Stevens can get together, I'm getting sick of MerDer, and, of course, there was way too little Addison and Mark.

I'm going to miss Addison (although not enough to suffer through an hour of Private Practice every week) and wanted to thank everyone for the reviews and support; it was great! Keep me on author alert, as I'll be doing more Grey's fics this summer.

Clean Getaway

Weddings were supposed to be beacons of hope, a symbol of love, and, having heard Preston's vows earlier that morning, she had really believed that it would be. She thought that even she, with her fossilized eggs and divorce and bitter angriness, would enjoy it.

But then she saw Derek's mouth forming the words "getaway car", which was like saying "quiet board" in a hospital or "Hamlet" in the theater. She noticed the apprehension in the grooms face and saw that all of Cristina's friends who weren't standing in bridesmaid's dresses on the other side of the door had either left or not bothered to show up at all.

She was noticing the juju.

First, the bride never walked down the aisle and then Addison watched as Preston walked back across the church alone, his head hung in disappointment. She saw Meredith march up without the woman she calls "her person" and Addison knew it was over before Meredith said a word. Yes, Alex was being sucky and Cristina was heartbroken and Meredith was in the process of breaking Addison's ex-husband's heart and Stevens and O'Malley were quietly destroying her best friend, but that wasn't what cemented things for her.

She knew because Mark hadn't shown up like she'd asked.
