Grey’s Anatomy introduced a consultant in season 13 episode 7, and while the residents were happy to have her around (they got to perform surgeries), the attendings were not because they were the ones being judged. Also in “Why Try to Change Me Now,” Amelia avoided her husband until she ended up blurting out how she felt about having a baby, and April gave Tinder a try.
Here are the best quotes from “Why Try to Change Me Now.”
Grey’s Anatomy Recap: Is Richard Losing His Job?>>>
“A good surgeon knows that if you go screwing around with something that doesn’t need screwing, you are the one who is liable to end up screwed.”
“‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’ The saying’s as true of the human body as it is of a washing machine or a blender. A good surgeon knows that if you go screwing around with something that doesn’t need screwing, you are the one who is liable to end up screwed.”
– Meredith’s opening voiceover
“Oh. That makes sense.”
Alex: “This is because of me, isn’t it? They’re gonna overhaul the program because I beat up DeLuca.”
Meredith: “Everything isn’t about you. That doesn’t even make sense.”
Alex: “A teacher beat up a student.”
Meredith: “Oh. That makes sense.”
“Well, yeah, Bailey’s not gonna BCC a mass-firing announcement to the entire staff. People panic.”
Jo: “The email makes it sound like she’s just gonna wander around and then wander away.”
Leah: “Well, yeah, Bailey’s not gonna BCC a mass-firing announcement to the entire staff. People panic.”
“Your happy little marriage can be adorable on a different day, okay? You need to get us answers.”
Stephanie: “Warren, you seriously know nothing about this.”
Ben: “I’ve told you, Miranda and I keep it real separated.”
Stephanie: “No, no, no. I don’t want to hear that. Your happy little marriage can be adorable on a different day, okay? You need to get us answers.”
“Yeah, you ever see that movie The Birds?”
Arizona: “Look at them all lined up for her, like little ducks quacking.”
Riggs: “Yeah, you ever see that movie The Birds?”

“You want to install insulation, you pay someone who is professionally not a moron.”
– Mrs. Lawson to her husband, a patient in the hospital
“You are the Director of the Residency Program, so direct her — to the door.”
– Meredith to Webber, after Minnick barged into her surgery
“It’s a job I fought very hard for you to get.”
Bailey: “It’s my decision to make. I am the chief.”
Webber: “I know. It’s a job I fought very hard for you to get.”
– Discussing Minnick’s methods
“I am like a rare, exotic bird, and if you stop me from teaching, I may be the last of my kind.”
“You made a mistake … I am great, and your little list or whatever the hell that is, that should have my name on it ’cause I raise great surgeons, and I will raise more. Fetal surgery is a very exclusive practice, and there are hardly any of us. I am like a rare, exotic bird, and if you stop me from teaching, I may be the last of my kind.”
– Arizona to Minnick
“It’s hard to admit when we’re wrong, that even though everything looks fine, there is a problem. Something is broken, and you have to see where it’s going and set about fixing it, or it’s all gonna come apart.”
– Meredith’s closing voiceover

If it’s on TV — especially if it’s a procedural or superhero show — chances are Meredith watches it. She has a love for all things fiction, starting from a young age with ER and The X-Files on the small screen and the Nancy Drew books. Arrow kicked off the Arrowverse and her true passion for all things heroes. She’s enjoyed getting into the minds of serial killers since Criminal Minds, so it should be no surprise that her latest obsession is Prodigal Son.
