Grey's Anatomy: Scoop on season 10 premiere, Meredith and Derek related scoop and scoop on the 200th episode from Entertainment Weekly's Sandra Gonzalez

Here's some scoop on Grey's Anatomy from Entertainment Weekly's Sandra Gonzalez's The Spoiler Room column, which was posted on 8/8/13.

‘GREY’S ANATOMY’: SIX SCOOPLETS FOR THE NEW SEASON!
Will Richard live? Whose relationship might be dead? What happens in the premiere? We caught up with some cast members and EP Shonda Rhimes for a heap of Grey’s teases:

Three words on the premiere: Storm = Mudslide. Firefighters.

On Richard’s fate: No one would spill on the fate of our beloved chief Webber. After nine (going on ten) seasons, this cast knows a thing or two about keeping a lid on secrets. But Camilla Luddington (Jo) teases of the first two episodes, “There are some heartbreaking things that happen that affect everybody. So there’s an element of recovery from that.” Well, that doesn’t sound good.

On Callie and Arizona: Fans may have been devastated by the Calizona drama of last season, and when we pick up with the new season, Callie is equally stunned. “We’re going to see Callie reeling from all of that and being reactive and acting out and making it known in the hospital how she feels,” Sara Ramirez teases of the two-hour premiere, which picks up moments after the finale. “She’s very open about it. She doesn’t hide it.”

On Jo and Alex: Because the season premiere picks up on the same night where we left off, we will find Jo “still bruised up” from her terrible domestic abuse incident last season. But the future is looking sunnier. “There’s an exploration of where it goes between Alex and Jo this season,” says Luddington. “I’m excited to move on to a happier, healthier Jo.”

On Meredith and Derek: “I feel like they have a newborn versus a 17-month-old, and as we know, newborns only sleep for two hours at a time and there’s breastfeeding involved,” reveals Rhimes of Derek and Meredith’s arc this season. “Having one child and having two children is a very different thing — as I just learned a little while ago. So for Meredith especially, it’s going to be about the lean-in of it all. What is she going to do about that in her career as a surgeon? Is she going to step back or figure out how to go at it harder? That’s going to be very interesting.”

On the 200th episode: “[It] will be a celebration of sorts and a little bit different of an episode,” Luddington teases. “I’ll say this: It’s not just necessarily all about the hospital.”
