Grey's Anatomy is a primetime medical drama that follows the lives of surgeons in the fictional Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, located in Seattle. Despite featuring several main characters, the central and titular character is Dr. Meredith Grey, who also functions as the show's primary narrator.

The show has been applauded for its non-traditional cast, as it is really representative of the world we're living in. The show's producers pride themselves on the fact that they used a "blind-casting" technique, resulting in a racially diverse cast. The writers carefully chose the specialty of each doctor as an important analogy to their character and foreshadowing of their development, which adds a layer of complexity to the show.


In the particular episode it is seen that a John Doe is brought in who pushed a woman out of the way of a bus and was subsequently run over by the bus and dragged half a block. The girl he saved keeps checking on him and calling him "her hero" and "Prince Charming" and similar names. Every time Meredith is talking to him, he tries to trace letters in her hands. She hands him a pen and paper, but he's too weak to hold the pen and passes out. Finally, she follows what he's writing - "O" "O" "7", or 007 (a license to kill someone), George's nickname due to the horrifying turn of events of his surgery in season one. Meredith realizes that the patient is George. She runs to tell the other doctors and they rush him into surgery to save him, but he dies on the table as his ICP (Intracranial pressure) goes through the roof.


Soon George's mother comes and says she can't decide about his organ donation as it's too overwhelming for her. Finally, Izzie decides to donate all his organs as it is what George would have wanted.


However, the most justice someone's death can get is that its body can still help people who are still alive and subconsciously give the blessings to the person who would donate the organs and so is happening to George.


In the OR, Bailey is watching the surgeons from different hospitals that came to pick up George's organs. Bailey would like each one of them to tell her which patients the organs are going to. She finds every patient is deserving of George's organs. So clearly George's death got the justice it truly deserved!
