Here is a sneak peek from this Thursday’s episode of Grey’s titled “Momma Knows Best.”

 
I’m going to leave Sarah Drew’s post here about The Rape Foundation brunch last Sunday because it’s a good read. She also talks about how she and Justin walked on stage to surprise a survivor who adopted April’s strategy with the hospital shooter (Grey’s Anatomy episode 6.24) against her own attacker.

On Sunday, I attended #therapefoundation annual brunch. It was a deeply moving experience. The founder of this incredible organization, #GailAbarbanel (5th pic) invited me to come to surprise one of the courageous survivors who told her story. This survivor believes that she may have saved her life by adopting a strategy from the moment in Greys Anatomy when April talked down the hospital shooter (Gary Clark). She took what she remembered from that moment and began to tell her attacker about her life – thus humanizing herself, and he let her go. After she spoke, @officialjustinchambers and I walked up on stage to surprise her and thank her for her courage and vulnerability. Listening to her story, and the stories of the other two survivors who were highlighted at the event showed me the power and the impact of storytelling. The story @shondarhimes Wrote had tremendous impact on this survivor’s life, and this survivor’s story had a tremendous impact on the lives of everyone in that room and beyond. I think storytelling is a powerful tool for creating empathy, building bridges, educating and igniting activism. I was absolutely blown away by the courage and the resiliance of the three survivors who spoke on Sunday. They are all simply amazing. The statistics surrounding sexual assault are staggering. 1 in 5 women are victims of rape. 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys are sexually abused before the age of 18. This is a horrific epidemic. The #Rapetreatmentcenter and #stuarthouse are both places to go where every need is met for victims of sexual assault completely free of charge. I am amazed by the work they are doing and was honored to have had the chance to participate in this fundraising event. I also had the chance to hang with @t.r.knight (who is just so wonderful) and my dear friend @officialjustinchambers . And it was beautiful to hear from @jennifer.garner Who was being honored as well.

Last Sunday, Justin attended The Rape Foundation Brunch in Beverly Hills. The annual fundraiser benefits the Rape Treatment Center and Stuart House at Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center for adult and child victims of sexual assault.

I’ve added photos of Justin at the event to the archive (link is below), including a few where he reunited with his former Grey’s Anatomy castmates Sarah Drew and T.R. Knight who also attended the brunch.

Last Saturday (Oct. 6), Justin was in San Diego for his daughter Eva’s gig with her band, Pinky Pinky. He made a post on Instagram about how surreal it was for him that the band was opening for The B-52s, which is a band he used to listen to when he was his daughter’s age.
Check out his pic with Eva (far left) and her bandmates, and swipe (or click) for video of Pinky Pinky performing and a couple more pics.

This week, there will be a 2-hour crossover episode between Grey’s Anatomy and Station 19, but it seems to me that Justin will not be appearing in the Station 19 episode. Either way, below is the synopsis for the Grey’s episode titled “Momma Knows Best” and the crossover promo.

“Momma Knows Best” – Meredith turns heads when she shows up to work done up and ready for her blind date later that day, while Alex makes a questionable decision in order to save a patient. Meanwhile, the burden of knowing Teddy’s secret keeps Maggie up at night, ultimately making her decide she has to tell someone, on “Grey’s Anatomy,” THURSDAY, OCT. 11 (8:00-9:01 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand.

This is the Grey’s Anatomy season 15 premiere roundup and it’s going to be a big one…

To start things off, Camilla Luddington posted a BTS pic as an Instagram story of her and Justin during Jo and Alex’s (Jolex) honeymoon. The Grey’s set decorator, Nicole Cramer, posted a pic of the fridge in Jolex’s loft and there’s now a honeymoon pic on it. The pics have been added to the season 15 BTS album.

Grey’s showrunner, Krista Vernoff, gave several interviews where she explained the events of the premiere and what’s ahead for the characters. I’ve only posted below the parts that refer to Justin and Alex Karev’s storyline. The full interviews can be read at the sources linked to below.

The Hollywood Reporter

Speaking of interim chief, how will Alex be a different chief than the ones we’ve seen before? How will Alex being a leader shake things up?

It’s delightfully different. Justin Chambers just lights this story up. In many ways, he was the least likely candidate for the job — which is why we loved it so much when we landed on it in the room after days of discussing the various possibilities. It feels entirely different than the chiefs we’ve seen before — and Justin wears the suit well.

TV Guide

In a surprising twist, Alex is the interim chief of surgery. How does he compare to Bailey in that role?
Vernoff: Alex Karev is an unlikely chief of surgery and that was a joy. It’s a little bit of a fish-out-of-water story initially. Who would have thought that Alex [would score this position]? It’s really joyful to see how he steps into it and rises to [the occasion]. It’s funny, and Justin (Chambers) is just tremendous. Wait ’til you see him in a suit.

So we’re gonna see Alex in a suit really taking this new role seriously?
Vernoff: It’s a temporary thing because Bailey’s gonna take her job back, but Bailey is trying to take care of her health and her stress levels and find the joy that she lost when Ben became a firefighter. It’s a complicated journey she’s taking, but she’ll be chief again at some point. In the meantime, Alex is up against everyone’s judgment and everyone’s doubt and his own self-doubt and it’s really great to see.

Deadline

DEADLINE: This season the show picks up after the wedding, with Jo and Alex on their honeymoon after finally getting married. But as we’ve seen often in the show, marriage doesn’t necessarily lead to forever, with couples often breaking up at some point. Will Jo and Alex be the exception?

VERNOFF: Well, I can’t speak to the long run because who knows how long the show will go on. I feel like Jo and Alex had a really long journey to this moment where they’re newlyweds and they’re happily married and are more interested in leaning into you and me against the world than you and me against each other. I think they’ve earned it.

This next quote is from the Remote Controlled podcast at Variety. I transcribed the part where Krista talks about Alex/Justin that starts at about the 19:52 mark.

You saw in the premiere that Alex is the Interim Chief of Surgery, which I think nobody expected. No one saw that coming. And when we came to that in the writers’ room, we spent weeks talking about ‘Who’s it gonna be? Who’s it gonna be? Who’s it gonna be?’, and when we landed on Alex, we were like, ‘Oh my God, of course it’s Alex!’ And it just was untold. Like, that story was like, ‘Who is he is gonna be as chief?’ was so delightful to us. The first day that Roemehl, our new costume designer, put him in his chief duds, like in his suit, Justin was like, “I feel reborn.” It’s really an exciting, fun thing to watch.

I’ll also leave this mention of Justin here. It’s part of an interview with the Grey’s directors who were working last week (Sept. 25), which included Nicole Rubio who was directing episode 15.06.

Refinery29

While the multi-hyphenate was fairly secretive about her episode, Rubio could confirm she had spent her morning shooting with Justin Chambers and Camilla Luddington, who play newlyweds Alex Karev and Jo Wilson(-Karev?). “They are hysterical,” Rubio said with a laugh. “They were so cute together. They are happy to be here, happy to be married.”

 
This week’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy is titled “Gut Feeling.” I had previously added some promotional photos to the archive, and here are now the promos and synopsis.

“Gut Feeling” – Meredith works on a patient who happens to specialize in matchmaking, and a seemingly drunk patient pushes Richard’s buttons and gives him a medical mystery to solve. Meanwhile, Maggie tries to reach Teddy after bearing the burden of her secret becomes overwhelming as she struggles with issues in her own personal life on “Grey’s Anatomy,” THURSDAY, OCT. 4 (8:00-9:01 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand.
