Grey’s Anatomy just had Kevin McKidd and Kim Raver‘s characters sign their divorce papers — only to show Owen and Teddy’s shocking hookup.
During the Thursday, March 5, episode of the hit ABC series, Owen supported Teddy as she contemplated another risky heart surgery on a patient. It was ultimately successful, which the former couple discussed at the end of their shift when Teddy came to pick up the kids.
Owen and Teddy admitted they were both still adjusting to their new normal before they decided to sleep together again. Their relationship status remained unclear as the episode wrapped up without a conclusion.
Earlier this season, Owen dealt with the end of his marriage to Teddy as she moved on with Cass (Sophia Bush). Owen had his own romantic development when he went out to dinner with Nora (Floriana Lima) before they eventually broke up.
“A couple of scripts came in [recently] and I was like, ‘Oh, my God.’ It gets messy and it is so Grey’s Anatomy. I just love it so much,” Raver, 56, exclusively told Us Weekly in January.
The actress learned what is to come with the rest of the cast.
“We’re all reading what’s happening [during a table read], and I love it,” she shared. “Some of us are in scrubs, some of us are in our street clothes. Then when we find out the information, it’s a shock and a surprise to all of us. We are like the audience, too, and then we look at each other like, ‘This is really happening.’”
Raver, who has played Teddy since season 6, promised “really great” Grey’s Anatomy story lines — and revealed whether she has any concerns about her character’s fate.
“That’s the life of an actor,” she noted. “It’s really just about trying to be present and doing the work and following the amazing story lines that the writers are given. Especially with how now we’re always having these incredible cliffhangers. No one ever knows.”
Raver promised that the audience would be “riveted” by what’s to come, adding, “There is a cliffhanger, so I think that that’s going to be really surprising. … I love being able to go every day and be able to tell these stories from a director’s point of view. Each story line leaves us with that quintessential Grey’s Anatomy vibes where you are crying, laughing and the residents are so good. There’s a lot of shenanigans going on with them. It’s a really exciting episode.”
Raver continued: “I feel like every time I direct a new episode of Grey’s, there are more things [I learn] because there’s a different format or a different way to shoot it. But I think maybe my confidence in how I want to tell this story and where I want to put the cameras [has gotten better]. TV moves so fast, so I feel like the more I do, the more comfortable I am with the speed that you need to go through it. I am just getting more and more comfortable with the craft of it, which allows me to then really enjoy the process.”
Grey’s Anatomy airs on ABC Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET before streaming the next day on Hulu.
