The Grey’s Anatomy season 15 finale left audiences asking so many questions. On Thursday, the cast of the beloved Shonda Rhimes-created drama surprised viewers with a series of events that had us scratching our heads. But, really, nothing out of the ordinary when it comes to a Grey’s finale. Get push notifications with news, features and more. Let’s break it down. To start, what’s a Grey’s finale without some sort of crazy weather? As a storm began to brew over Seattle, the intense fog was quick to cause a major pileup on the freeway, leaving a very pregnant Teddy (Kim Raver) sitting in traffic while in labor. Thankfully, her baby daddy’s ex, Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), was by her side and was more than capable of delivering a baby solo. Still, our hearts were pumping. And remember when Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) and Andrew DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) all semi-committed insurance fraud (except it was really all Meredith’s genius idea) after falsifying a medical chart last week? Well, because Andrew is head-over-heels in love with Meredith, he took the fall and landed himself in jail. Yes jail, including stepping into a red jumpsuit. But Meredith, who found herself telling DeLuca she loved him too (aw! ), told her three kids that “mommy has to go take care of something” and might be gone for a bit. Though audiences didn’t see Meredith behind bars, one wonders if she also goes to jail. Oh, and the big kicker about this whole insurance fraud storyline? Dr. Bailey (Chandra Wilson) went into full chief mode and fired (yes, fired!) Dr. Webber, Alex and Meredith. We can’t even fathom what the show would be like without these three veterans! JAMES PICKENS JR., JUSTIN CHAMBERS, ELLEN POMPEO Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) and Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) Meanwhile, Owen (Kevin McKidd) professed his love for Teddy as she was in labor with their little girl — and while Teddy’s boyfriend was building a changing table at her new apartment he found for her. But Teddy and Owen forever! As for Jo Karev (Camilla Luddington), she was working through a personal battle after discovering her birth mother was raped by her father. In a rare moment of vulnerability, Jo finally broke down to her husband, Alex, and revealed that she was “not okay.” With Meredith and Alex’s encouragement, Jo checked herself into a psychiatric clinic to receive some much-needed help. To top things off, Jackson (Jesse Williams) and Maggie (Kelly McCreary) were stuck in the middle of a lover’s quarrel after a camping getaway gone wrong. Caught in the deep fog, Jackson pulled over to allow the weather to pass before proceeding with their trip. Because of the intense tension between him and Maggie, he stepped out of the car for some air. JESSE WILLIAMS Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) with Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary) After a period of waiting, a worried Maggie (who was still in the car) stepped out screaming his name. Where is Jackson? What happened? Is he okay? Is he safe? Will he come back? We’ll have to wait until season 16 to find out.

He declared his love for Meredith but received no response from her. To prove his love for her, he took the fall for an insurance fraud scandal earlier in the season that saw her using her daughter’s name to fill out on uninsured patient’s forms. After Meredith is able to get out of the hyperbaric chamber, however, where she has been trying to save Gus, she says she will hand herself in to the police, which means the next series could see her in prison.

Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) is also stuck in the traffic while in labour, following her declaration of love for Owen (Kevin McKidd). IS ELLEN POMPEO LEAVING GREY'S ANATOMY? The Grey's Anatomy season 15 finale saw Meredith try and save Gus<doc-sep>[Warning: The following contains spoilers for the Season 15 finale of Grey's Anatomy. Read at your own risk!] The Season 15 finale of Grey's Anatomy didn't come with as much death as we expected, but the end left a big question mark over one of our favorite characters. Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and Jackson (Jesse Williams) made it from their tent to their car -- having a potentially relationship-ending fight on the way -- only to run into the thick fog taking over Seattle. Jackson decided to pull over and check out the nearby area to see how far the fog reached, promising to return to the car after 10 minutes. When he never made it back, Maggie stepped outside the car and yelled his name, but there was no response. At best, Jackson is just lost and having trouble finding his way back to the car. At worst, he's gravely injured or dead, and who knows how long it will take to find him. Discover your new favorite show: Watch This Now! In a slightly less dark boat, is Meredith (Ellen Pompeo). Meredith was finally able to get free of the hyperbaric chamber and tell Catherine (Debbie Allen) and Bailey (Chandra Wilson) she was the one who committed insurance fraud. However, Richard (James Pickens Jr.) and Karev (Justin Chambers) also took the blame, resulting in all three of them being fired. Meredith headed down to the county jail where DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) was already in a red jumpsuit. She swore to get him out of there -- and threw in an "I love you too" for good measure. But can this new romance survive prison separation? Meanwhile, Jo (Camilla Luddington) finally came clean about what has been causing her downward spiral and checked herself into the Grey Sloan psychiatric ward to get the help she needs. It looks like she's going to be OK, even if she's out of commission for a minute. What's less certain is whether Teddy (Kim Raver) and Owen (Kevin McKidd) will officially make the leap into romance or whether they'll slide back into the "won't they" mode of their relationship. TV Guide talked to Grey's Anatomy director and executive producer Debbie Allen about the finale's big cliffhanger, that MerLuca I-Love-You, and what to expect next season. Jesse Williams, Grey's Anatomy Mitch Haaseth, ABC via Getty Images Is Jackson dead? Debbie Allen: That's the big cliffhanger. That is a huge cliffhanger. What has happened to Jackson? What can you say about his status and what you want people to be feeling after they watch the episode? Allen: In the vein of Shonda Rhimes and Krista Vernoff, we never want to say how the audience should feel; we leave so much on the table and we plow and leave so many seeds sown that they come away with their own impression. ... What we always do is we want to tell great stories. We want to tell stories that are relevant to the world, which we have been doing so well this season. ... I think we've just left a lot of great seeds for people to sow on their own and at the end of the episode [Thursday] people are going to be anxious for next season to see what the hell happened. Where is this going to go? That's the beauty of what we do. Can you tease how you think Catherine is going to react when she finds out next season that Jackson is at least missing? Allen: Are you kidding? Catherine is going to call the FBI, CIA, everybody she knows to get them onboard to find her son if he's missing -- if, in fact, he is missing. That's her son, her only son. He's her life. Richard is so a big part of her life, but that's her son... We're not telling Catherine right now [what] has happened because we want her to have a good summer. Grey's Anatomy Renewed for Two Seasons Because We Deserve This Before Jackson disappeared, he and Maggie had this huge fight. Is that something you think they can survive if he makes it through this? Allen: When I read that [fight] scene, I told Krista Vernoff, the head writer, that this was ... a mini Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolff. In that play, there's alcohol and a lot of things, and the gloves come off and the people finally say things that they normally wouldn't say. Their circumstance of where they are has made that kind of happen, Jackson and Maggie. I mean, they told some truths to one another. There were revelations in the middle of chaos. They're discovering who they are to each other in a whole different way. We get this big Meredith and DeLuca moment toward the end of the episode. At what point this season did you know that DeLuca was going to be worthy of that first post-Derek "I love you?" Allen: I knew this in the first episode back. [Meredith] kind of woke up from a nightmare where she was kissing DeLuca, then there was Jackson in her bedroom, then Greg Germann was in her bedroom. It's like that scene when they were kissing in her dream, there was chemistry. There was real chemistry. You know sometimes we can say, "This one goes together, that one," and then you look up and you see it. So we saw chemistry with them... This relationship has evolved. It's really good. We're really looking at how we're going to explore this. That moment plays out, as big of a deal as it is, kind of low-key. Why did that feel appropriate for this moment? Allen: Because it's how Ellen Pompeo acts, very natural. She's very real and she doesn't like to overdo things. It's part of the nuance that she brings to her role that I can't begin to celebrate enough. I appreciate her every day as an actor. So, the way it happens is the way it happens in real life; "By the way, I think I would tell you I love you too." It was great. I loved how she played it. Meredith Freaks Out Over DeLuca's Big Gesture in This Grey's Anatomy Sneak Peek What inspired you to have Jo go to the psych ward? That felt like a very big step rather than having her just get a therapist on a weekly basis. Allen: Her problem is very serious. It's been ongoing for quite a while, and she's had real trouble facing it. She fell into like a drunken stupor for a while, and they're giving her the best help right there in the hospital. They're going to help her find her way. And that's going to be an interesting journey for her as well, how she brings herself back. One thing that I thought could be open to interpretation was the birth scene with Teddy and Hunt where they say they're going to be together forever raising this child. Was that them saying they want to actually be together or do they need to have a more explicit conversation in Season 16? Allen: This has been going back and forth since the beginning of the season. We've gone around the block with Owen and his feelings about Teddy. Krista and the writers, we kept talking about it back and forth. Who is Owen going to be alone? Is he going to have a kid? What's going to happen? Is she going to go with Koracick? At the end of the day, we knew the chemistry between them was so real and genuine. There's history all the way back from their war days and time together. You just can't compete with that, that relationship. His sister had to come and remind him of his stupidity, and why isn't he going after the woman he really loves? So that was really great. So I think we can expect them to be together, but what's going to happen with the doctor in their apartment, building a baby crib? I don't know. ABC's Fall 2019 TV Schedule<doc-sep>
SPOILER ALERT: This story contains major plot details of the Grey’s Anatomy season finale. The Season 15 finale of ABC’s record-breaking series Grey’s Anatomy picked up where it left off in the penultimate episode with a heavy fog interfering with the saving of lives in one way or another and with one doctor facing serious jail time for a well-intentioned but criminal act. Titled “Jump Into the Fog,” the Debbie Allen-directed season ender saw Dr. Andrew DeLuca taken away in handcuffs after having taken the fall for Meredith Grey in the insurance fraud scandal — Meredith used her daughter’s name to fill out insurance papers for an uninsured patient — after professing his love to Meredith, to no response. Talk about the things we do for love. This obviously doesn’t sit well with Meredith, who is unable to stop him due to the fact that she’s locked up in the hyperbaric chamber, along with Alex Karev, trying to save the ailing Gus from dying. Meanwhile, desperately trying to return to Grey Sloan Memorial to supply blood for Gus, Owen Hunt, Levi Schmitt and the agoraphobic donor Frances are stuck in a multi-car highway pileup thanks to the thick Seattle fog. Eventually they are able to hitchhike an ambulance ride to the hospital just in time to save the Lego-loving young patient. The drama continues with Teddy, who has just gone into labor after also confessing her love for Owen to Amelia Shepherd (while her doting boyfriend sets up her baby room). Thankfully, she too makes it on time to the hospital to deliver her daughter, Allison (named after Teddy’s friend who died on 9/11). Owen is alongside her in the delivery room and also professes he’s in love with Teddy. This perhaps comes as no surprise as Grey’s Anatomy wouldn’t be Grey’s Anatomy without a good love triangle. Or is it a love square, maybe? Amelia did admit to still loving Owen and broke off her “thing” with Link to find herself outside of her relationship with Owen. Only time, or Season 16, will tell. Another relationship hanging in the balance is Maggie Pierce and Jackson Avery. Their camping trip seemed to be going well until the storm hit and Maggie is unable to get to the hospital, where she’s being paged to attend to Gus. The two are at each other’s throats throughout the episode, both criticizing the other’s past as being to blame for their current predicament. Stuck in the visual-obstructing fog, Jackson goes out to scope out the scene, and the episode ends with Maggie calling out for him to no response. Where did he go? Is he hurt? Or perhaps he’s too busy saving lives to hear Maggie’s calls? On a brighter note, Karev finally learns the truth behind his wife Jo’s deep depression, and Jo is able to admit to herself that she needs help. With the help of Miranda Bailey, she checks into a treatment facility. Back at the hospital, Meredith, attempting to right her wrong, confesses to filing false insurance papers, and before punishment can be rendered, Karev and Richard Webber burst in the room in an attempt to take the onus off of Meredith. It doesn’t work. This ends with all three of them being fired by Chief Miranda Bailey. It’s hard to believe three of the best doctors in the hospital (and the few remaining original cast members) will stay fired for long. What’s also hard to believe is that Meredith might do time in jail. She did finally say “I love you” to DeLuca, the first time she’s daid that to a man since Derek, and walks out ready to accept her fate. But, as we have seen in past seasons, Meredith Grey can maneuver her way out of anything. The enduring Grey’s Anatomy has shown no signs on stopping anytime soon as it recently picked up for seasons 16 and 17, securing its place in TV history. The series’ star, Ellen Pompeo, is set for both seasons, along with the other remaining original cast members. In addition, Deadline recently reported that Shondaland shows Grey’s and Station 19 are going to play up the shared-universe aspect much more next season, with storylines kept fluid and characters seamlessly going back and forth in what would feel like two-hour episodes. Season 16 of Grey’s Anatomy will debut in the fall on ABC.
