Grey's Anatomy Recap: Owen and Amelia's Secret Is Out!

Well, that honeymoon period didn't last long.

On Grey's Anatomy, Owen (Kevin McKidd) and Amelia's (Caterina Scorsone) secret is out - but their budding romance quickly starts to create complications at Grey Sloan.

The new lovebirds aren't the only ones spending a lot of time between the sheets - Derek (Patrick Dempsey) and Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) are enjoying "reconnecting" so much that Derek is considering canceling his flight to D.C. to hand in his resignation. (Later, he says "I'll be back before you know it," in a way that immediately makes me think this trip is doomed. Judging by next week's previews, yes.)

No time to worry about that for too long, though, because Amelia suddenly walks in to MerDer's house as they're feeding the kids breakfast. And, since she's in the same clothes from the night before and Owen is trailing behind her, Meredith puts two and two together that her sister-in-law and her BFF's husband are having adult sleepovers.

At the hospital, Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and Callie (Sara Ramirez) are lamenting bad dates from the night before, with Maggie upset that radiologist Ethan ignores her in the hallway and Callie lamenting that her man in uniform (is this police officer Dan, do we think?) was too boring to warrant a second outing.

After their awkward encounter that morning, Meredith confronts Amelia about her intentions with Owen, saying that Cristina has asked her to look out for him, and warns Amelia to "be careful." After taking her annoyance out on Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton), Amelia and Callie team up to treat a competitive high school golf prodigy whose spine is misaligned. Callie wants to make sure she's stabilized, whereas Amelia wants to make sure she can still play golf. Scholarships are on the line, after all. Owen, after hearing their debate, shockingly sides with Amelia.

Meanwhile, Stephanie and April (Sarah Drew) are tending to a restaurateur whose wife has cut off his penis, and who brings it (along with his sous chef/mistress) to the hospital in what looks like a Chinese takeout container. April wants to call Catherine Avery (Debbie Allen) in to the rescue, while Webber (James Pickens Jr.)'s pride prompts him to opt for a different - and lesser, apparently - surgeon. But April goes behind his back and calls her mother-in-law anyway. Catherine descends onto the roof in a helicopter like a secret penis agent, here to save the day. "I've reattached many phalluses," she tells the patient calmly. (Is there a spin-off idea here?)

When Maggie finally confronts Ethan about going MIA after their date, he tells her it was because she didn't stop talking for their entire evening, never asked him a single question about himself, ordered for him, and then paid. Yikes. Maggie, humiliated, runs out of the room.
