"Grey's Anatomy's" Ellen Pompeo
[Warning: This story contains spoilers from Thursday's "Beautiful Doom" episode of Grey's Anatomy.]
Meredith and Cristina both began their emotional road to recovery during Thursday's Grey's Anatomy with an episode centered entirely on the longtime friends.
The "Beautiful Doom" hour often used a split-screen to tell parallel stories between Meredith treating a bicyclist pinned underneath a car following a crash and Cristina working with Dr. Thomas (William Daniels) on a complicated case.
With Derek (Patrick Dempsey) heading out of town, Mer (Ellen Pompeo) is tasked with taking care of Zola and fighting hard for a patient whose case replaced a car for a plane with its victim pinned underneath in a story quite similar to that of her late sister, Lexie (Chyler Leigh).

After Webber (James Pickens Jr.) questions if the case is hitting too close to home for her, Meredith explains that she's going to take advantage of the resources the plane crash survivors only wished they had to fight to save her patient's life.
Ultimately, her patient makes it and recalls Meredith being there every step of the way.
Cristina (Sandra Oh), meanwhile, is still charmed by her wise colleague, Dr. Thomas. After Cris turns down a surgery with her sex friend Dr. Parker in favor of Thomas, the former opts to crash it as he continues his quest to get the elder surgeon to hang up his stethoscope.
