Find out who among the chosen few may be the conqueror of death in our Greys Anatomy season 11, episode 16 recap.

Case of the Week: A car drives into a house, leaving a punk rocker and his pregnant wife in the ER.

Patients are lost week in and week out on Greys Anatomy, but what keeps the doctors coming back for more carnage is to save as many of those patients from death as possible. What if there was one among them who stood between life and death, blocking the patients from succumbing to the unknown? Amelia valiantly prevailed in her fight against death with Dr. Hermans tumor, but Meredith Grey is as close to a true conqueror as the interns at Grey Sloan Memorial have seen. With her streak up to 89 patients, how long can she stare down the darkness?

Merediths personal life is perpetual darkness as she sits mere minutes after the end of last weeks episode in Alexs on call bed going over the details of her phone call to Derek. Both Maggie and Alex agree that he is not cheating, but that may just be to get Meredith out of the room. Callie wishes she could run from the room as Arizona catches her taking a kiss from her date that was cut short. Even worse, down the hall Owen and Amelias fling is called off on account of a trauma in the ER.

In the ER, Martin Davis is in restraints after crashing his car through the front of a home. Suffering from Alzheimers, he has forgotten his stint on Wonder Years as Jack Arnold as well as the last five years of his life. Thinking he is in a shoe shop, Martin punches Maggie, giving her a concussion and a nice black eye. His wife arrives to set the record straight, but gives Maggie some pause. Once they are up in the OR, Maggie begins to rant about the poor care Martins wife is providing the man. Ben tries to get Maggie to cut her soap box speech short, but Richard ends it when he announces that he lost Adele to the disease.

Back in ER, there is the punk rock loving couple who suffer extreme complications from their wild night of sitting around the television. The wife is pregnant and seemingly better off than her husband, who nearly crashes twice before heading up to surgery. But nothing is as it seems on Greys Anatomy and the wife suffers from an extreme seizure that kills her before there is a chance to find out how Arizona spent her own punk rock days. Before the doctors stop pumping air and blood throughout the womans body, though, Arizona successfully delivers a strong baby boy.

After Martin wakes up, it seems that his Alzheimers disappeared. So did the doctors have a major medical breakthrough? Not quite. Martin suffered from a build up of spinal fluid that caused him to suffer similar symptoms.
