All is well with the world again: Grey's Anatomy is back. We don't know about you, but we're super ready for whatever this show has in store for us this season. Last night, Season 17 premiered with a two-hour special, which was especially emotional because it pays tribute to frontline healthcare workers and addresses the doctors' struggles to cope with the increasing and heart wrenching COVID deaths at the hospital (via Deadline). However, in classic Grey's Anatomy fashion, there was a jaw-dropping surprise in the episode's final moments.
In the episode, Ellen Pompeo's character, Meredith Grey, collapses in the parking lot of Grey Sloan Memorial. She finds herself in a dream sequence in which she is on a beach, hair blowing in the wind. Moments later, it happens. That's right: None other than McDreamy himself is on the beach with her.
Fans absolutely couldn't believe their eyes. Patrick Dempsey's Derek Shepherd, a.k.a. the handsome McDreamy, was gracing their TV with his presence. This was especially shocking to see because in perhaps the entire series' largest plot twist, Shepherd tragically died in a horrible car accident way back in Season 11.
