Home TV Grey's Anatomy Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 17 recap: Crossing the line

Derek confesses, but did he say everything that Meredith wanted to hear? Find out in our Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 17 recap.

Case(s) of the week: Meredith and Dereks marriage, 17-year-old with liver failure, Owens mother slips in the shower.

Owen and Amelia continue to experience interruptions in their plan to get away and this time it is Owens mom who sets off the pagers. When the medic/firefighter/young, attractive man who assisted Owens mother to the hospital lingers a little too long, he begins to put the pieces together. John, a man younger than Owen, is taking her around town.

After meeting in a writers group where the two shared their stories about time in the service, Ev and John took their chats to coffee and beyond. Six months later, Ev tries to talk to Owen about how John makes her happy, but it falls on closed ears. However, Amelia is willing to listen as long as Evelyn is still enough to get a clear CT. After serving in the military and taking care of Owen on her own for 32 years, it was nice to find a companion who made their age difference seem nonexistent.

Just as Meredith used to do with her mothers VCR, Greys Anatomy takes apart the Merder marriage. Derek steps inside to explain his story, but it seems a bit off from the start. Heading to airport to fix his marriage, Derek left his phone in the lab and a woman picked it up. But the pieces that were left over from the VCR are just as hard to make it fit in their relationship. The tape may still play, but youll always wonder where those pieces fit in. Meredith plays with the leftover screw that reminds her she was once where Dereks newest research assistant Rene is.

Rene is working on research to solve just how Autism works, a case close to her heart, as she works to find a way to get inside her sisters head. With each passing week, Renes work pushes her closer and closer to Derek. By their fifth week together, Renes near breakthroughs pull Derek in to offer his assistance as a cheerleader and assistant. But it does not end there.

Downstairs in the ER of Grey Sloan Memorial, Jo and Stephanie are looking for cases. Stephanie more so than Jo, who is several hours behind in nearly every specialty other than neurology after helping Amelia with Hermans tumor. But Jo wins out on a headache that turns into seven hours of trauma work. A nosebleed that jumps back into someones head after a trip to China? Some kind of critter is making itself at home in a patients sinus cavity.
