[edit] Episode recap

Dr. Mark Sloan (Eric Dane) arrives in Seattle to try to convince Addison to continue their relationship, and is greeted with a punch from Derek, just for flirting with Meredith.Meredith then stitches Sloan where he points out that even though Derek caught him having sex with Addison, he just walked out but flirting with her earned Sloan a punch. Despite the tension between the former best friends, Dr. Webber allows Sloan (whom the female interns dub "McSteamy") to assist Derek in a risky surgery to fix a teenage patient with facial tumors that make his face resemble that of a lion. When the patient dies during surgery, Sloan proceeds with the plastic surgery to fulfill the boy's dying wish of appearing normal. Cristina and Preston's relationship is strained when he learns that she still leases her original apartment. Izzie treats a patient with spontaneous orgasms, causing Izzie to satisfy her own needs with Alex. Meredith's mother tells her about having an affair, and after Meredith deals with a cancer victim who is intent on recording angry messages to all those who have hurt him, she confronts her father about the affair. It is the first time she has spoken to him in twenty years. Later, Dr. Webber tells Meredith's mother that Meredith is finding out about their past; due to her Alzheimer's, the elder Dr. Grey thinks that Meredith is still five years old. George is unable to tell Meredith how he feels about her until the end of the episode, when he comes clean and they appear to have sex.
