Meredith and Alex have drinks and catch up. Surely she's proud of him for his engagement to Jo, but will a talk with Alex be enough to convince Meredith to pursue something with the new transplant doctor who has eyes for her?
It has been a long road for Meredith Grey. She climbed the professional ranks, starting as an intern with four other close friends, and now she's a world-renowned, innovative surgeon and Chief of General Surgery well on her way to receiving a Harper Avery. It's just her and Alex remaining, but the MAGIC is still there.
Meredith and Nathan end up stuck sitting next to one another on a plane on Grey's Anatomy. "In the Air Tonight" is the 19th episode of the show's 13th season.
If there is anyone who will call Meredith out on her behavior, it's Alex. The question is this regarding her feeling for Riggs on a personal level or a professional one?
