    Secrets

    This episode of Grey's Anatomy was about a girl who had a tumor on her testes. Yeah I know you're probably thinking if she's a girl why does she have a testes. Well she has testes inside of her body. Although she had the tumor on top of that her family wanted to hide the fact she could be a boy but she ended up finding out anyways. Well when she did she was so excited her mom and dad were mad.

    Izzy is another intern. Well she had just gotten out of a bad relationship with Alex another intern. But then she has gotten a patient whose name is Denny. Well she has a crush on him a huge one at that. He was suppose to get a heart replacement but it didn't go through for some reason. So she's has a lot of stress on her.

    At the end the girl who has a tumor has asked George the intern for a pair of scissors for him to cut her hair and he when he was cutting her hair when her mom and dad walked in. Her mom looked angrily at George and went up to him and gestured him for he scissors. He gave them to her when he started to walk away she finished cutting her hair with a smile on her face.

    All in all I really liked this episode of Grey's Anatomy. I thought it had a lot of good plots I recommend you all to watch it.
