Home TV Grey's Anatomy Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 15 recap: Stayin alive

A natural disaster may last for a few seconds on tonights Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 15, but our recap dives right into the lasting aftershock.

Case of the Week: An earthquake hits the Seattle area, leaving a wide variety of injuries and complications from the woods, to the ER, to the OR.

The synopsis teaser for this weeks Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 15 led viewers to believe that Maggies time in the elevator would be more than a few seconds long. Sure there was an episode worth of story to follow her run in with sexy radiologist Ethan (seriously, where does the HR department find these doctors?), but we expected more of what the elevators tend to offer on the show.

Now that the two major story arcs, April Kepner and Nicole Herman, are out of the way, the rest of Grey Sloan Memorials problems rise to the surface. First up, Bailey is still trying to convince Ben to focus on reconnecting with his estranged sister.

Perhaps a rotation on plastics with Jackson is simply an invitation to the plastics posse, but it may also be a ploy to connect Ben to the life-changing benefits the field offers to those who are not comfortable in their own skin. Jackson shows Ben that he does not jump into decisions on his consults based on the whims of a patient. By getting to know the patients, Jackson explains to Ben that no decision comes lightly and if he thinks a patient is not ready for elective surgery, he makes them wait.

Ben uses his rotation patients to get his concerns with his sister on the table and Jackson explains that there is a way for him to get more comfortable with the patients decision he must talk to them and understand how they see themselves.

Ben is sorting things out upstairs while April Kepner jumps back into the saddle downstairs. Assigning Callie and Maggie to an elderly womans sexual escapade injuries leaves Owen open to grab a phone call that changes the course of his and Amelias day. On the other end is a young girl, Ruby, trapped in the cabin with her mother unconscious on the floor. Left alone with only Owen on the line and no way to trace the call, Amelia and Owen talk Ruby through various ways to help the young girl save her mothers life.
