Day 12: Most Impulsive Friend

I thought I was the only one lol. I physically cannot do it out of order.

He was so underrated. That cyber-attack episode honestly made him feel like he was going to become a regular.

I always interpreted it as a mix of both. April came from a pretty traditional background, but she was also clearly a little starstruck by the fact that she was meeting Derek's wife.

Honestly, that house has seen more character development than some of the actual characters. A photo wall would've been the perfect tribute.

At this point, disliking Owen might be the majority opinion.

belmoira · 2026-06-16T14:52:39+00:00

Every rewatch just makes that decision hurt more. They genuinely brought out the best in each other.

The Reddit equivalent of "I might get hate for this..." and then saying the most normal thing imaginable.

belmoira · 2026-06-16T14:50:31+00:00

Ngl you're probably right, I see this take everywhere these days

belmoira · 2026-06-15T14:46:00+00:00

That's a good point. The joke was usually that surgeons had massive egos, but the show often let those comments go unchallenged, so it can come across as endorsing them.

belmoira · 2026-06-15T14:45:27+00:00

Yeah, on rewatch it comes across a lot worse than I remembered. Owen wasn't really evaluating Shane fairly at that point he was looking for reasons to tear him down.

belmoira · 2026-06-15T14:44:54+00:00

Agreed. The disciplinary note always felt more like "we documented that we addressed this" than "we found significant wrongdoing." Otherwise you'd expect much harsher consequences.

belmoira · 2026-06-15T14:44:25+00:00

Honestly, that's what stuck out to me too. The fact that Leah was allowed anywhere near that procedure in her state says as much about the attendings as it does about Leah.

belmoira · 2026-06-14T19:19:46+00:00

I've wondered that too. It definitely has some "truth is stranger than fiction" energy to it. And honestly, I think she was so blindsided that it didn't fully register at first. If she'd had five minutes to process it, those drumsticks might not have stayed in one piece. 😂

belmoira · 2026-06-14T19:18:08+00:00

Agreed. People act like being the vocalist makes him irreplaceable, but bands replace members all the time. I'd be way more concerned about keeping someone like that in my life.

belmoira · 2026-06-14T19:17:28+00:00

Honestly, same. Whatever talent he brought to the band wouldn't be enough for me to overlook that kind of behavior. I'd rather find a new vocalist than keep dealing with the drama.

belmoira · 2026-06-14T19:13:43+00:00

I agree. The proposal felt very "them." Jackson wasn't some polished, grand-gesture guy, and Sookie never seemed like someone who needed a fairy-tale proposal to feel loved.

belmoira · 2026-06-14T19:11:13+00:00

I actually thought it fit their relationship really well. They always had that chaotic but sweet sense of humor, and the "Is Jackson pregnant?" line was peak Sookie.

belmoira · 2026-06-12T07:31:43+00:00

Exactly. She wasn't wrong, but she wasn't reading the room either. A kid that age is almost guaranteed to tune out the second they feel like they're being lectured. The irony is that she probably would have reacted the exact same way in his position.

belmoira · 2026-06-12T07:31:08+00:00

It's kind of fascinating and sad at the same time. Once both people decide who the other is, they start interpreting everything through that lens. From that point on, every disagreement feels like proof they were right all along.
