Of course there's a lot of talk about the actors' future. Rumours circulate about looking for apartments in New York, signing up to movies, more time with kids. Putting all that aside whose Grey's STORY do you think leads to their death? Shonda tells us it will be dark...will that death be at the crash site or will there be fatal events back at the hospital?
POLL : Who will die in Grey's Anatomy Season Finale
12 May 2012
Grey's Anatomy Polls
With one more episode to go and an impending character death Grey's Anatomy is revving up to be one of the most dramatic season finales yet. Speculation is rife about which 'beloved' character will join George, Denny, Reed and Percy in TV SG(MW)'s OR in the sky, but who do YOU think it will be?


I don't know why, but I can't stop thinking it'll be Lexie.
ReplyDeletePlease don't kill Lexie!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing April, and everyone from the plane crash survives. But if not April, I'd say Lexie or possibly Arizona. I really hope not.
ReplyDeleteIt's Lexie. It's impossible to lift up the airplane wing for only three people.
ReplyDeleteAnybody else think that Kepner is going down a dark path and the death could be her suicide?
ReplyDeletei think it will be her too... it makes sense you know?
ReplyDeleteshonda said in an interview: "it scares me how fans are going to react" ....
it's either her of Arizona. Period.
My guess is Lexie,too.She is not as much involved as she was in the past-not with patients or her colleagues!She doesn't have a storyline of her own .And no,getting back together with Mark does not qualify as a storyline anymore.
ReplyDeleteYUP that's exactly what i thought because she had a baby in real life and might want to stay home
ReplyDeleteI'm not even going to think about the possibility of it being Lexie (DOES NOT COMPUTE)
ReplyDeleteHowever much I'd hate it, I think it's most likely April or possibly Teddy.
I hope you're right!!!
ReplyDeleteI thought so too when she told Owen she doesn't have anything anymore.
ReplyDeleteApril - which I will be very sad if I'm right. She's one of my favourite characters now.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I think!
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly. I mean her entire life plan has practically gone down the drain. However, the fact that she's so religious makes me think that maybe she won't (unless they are just going to ignore that fact)
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure we already know it's not Derek, Mere, Alex, Cristina or Bailey. I think it was mentioned a couple of weeks back that it most definitely isn't one of the original cast members.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, it better not be Lexie otherwise i'm gonna hate shonda FOREVER! I still think everybody from the crash will get through it, and someone like Callie or even Bailey may be the one who is going to die
ReplyDeleteI believe Alex will hear that Izzy died.
ReplyDeleteplease dont let it be Lexie. Not because I like the character but just the emotional fall out would be too much next season. Meredith and Mark would basically be out for a whole season. you do not get over your sister dying very quickly. I know there would be fall out from Arizona, but with Callie and not the main characters of Meredith, Derek and Mark. I could not face Meredith being sad and miserable for a whole season.
ReplyDeleteOh damn, I didn't see the interview in which that was said. It does make the possibility of it being Lexie seem more plausible. I'm really worried now.
ReplyDeletei think it will be Arizona, she is pregnant in real lif and that will keep Krevv at Seattle Grace. Also they made it a point to show her on the plane but not "post crash"
ReplyDeleteLexie's injuries will keep Derek and Meredith at Seattle Grace, Yang will realize how precious life is and how short and will go back to Owen
ReplyDeleteWhile watching the last episodes it started to make me think it was Richard Webber, but now... maybe it is because I don't want anyone of them to go..
ReplyDeleteApril dying would be the worst thing Shonda Rhimes could do to a character she hasn't been truly happy ever and I think she deserves it. Also I think it would be kind of weird seeing as her thing with Jackson would seem so abrupt and random. They need to explore that relationship more and it's not going to take just 40 minutes to do so. Also there is still a little part of me that wants her to end up with Alex. She's grown on me
ReplyDeletethat's why im 99.99% sure it wont be Teddy or April, i like themm but i dont know if their deaths could actually make shonda be worried about people's opininon.
ReplyDeletei agree. the first thing i thought of lexie dying was he aftermath her death could cause on meredith, and everyone else for that matter... it'll be like season seven all over again.. and i don't want that
ReplyDeleteIt is also not going to be Mark or Jackson =)
ReplyDeleteYeah there are a lot of people that don't like April all that much and Teddy doesn't have that much of a fan-base. Oh, damn. I really didn't think it would be Lexie until I read some of the comments here - now it's all starting to make sense. Only Shonda Rimes would decide to kill the character with the most emotional ties to other characters.
ReplyDeleteI think I read somewhere that all the original cast survives, and with news of renewed contracts for another two years that leaves a bunch of ppl from this poll out already...could be wrong though.
ReplyDeletePersonally? I'd rather have Owen die than them continuing to destroy what was once, a LONG time ago, a favorite character of mine
Oooooooo. That's a good one! Although, I don't know if it would be heart-wrenching enough and Shonda does seem to enjoy killing characters in horrifically emotionally scarring ways.
ReplyDeleteWell we know it's none of the original cast because they've all signed two year deals so it has to be the late comers like Lexie, Mark, Owen or the red head girl.
ReplyDeleteI'd say Bailey's death would cause the most uproar no? I haven't watched the show in a while but I know the character is a fan favorite and her death would be truly devastating.
ReplyDeleteyeah, but it's been confirmed bailey will be back for season nine :)
ReplyDeleteShonda had some pretty leading comments on JCap's pregnancy. It seemed kinda like it was a certainty that Arizona would be sticking around.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.shewired.com/2012/01/18/jessica-capshaws-pregnancy-will-not-be-written-greys-tweets-shonda-rhimes
Very curious why so many people will think it's Arizona. This is a Shonda styled MFEO couple? Callie is not on the plane - why would they kill Arizona without a deathbed scene?
ReplyDeleteLexie and Mark tragedy awaits me things. Death bed (or crushed under wreckage) declaration of love.
Well I think it's between Lexie and Arizona. I love Lexie, I don't want her to be the one, but, of course, I'd love how much drama it would bring to the show. So I don't really know what to think bout Lexie dying. It might be Arizona too, it'd make sense with Jessica having a baby and all, but I guess after almost losing Callie last year and all, it would be kinda boring bringing so much drama to the couple. So, although I hate the idea of Lexie gone, I would also like her to be the one dying. Just imagine those last scenes with Mark... golden!
ReplyDeleteWith all of the contract and spoilers in mind, my top guess is Arizona, second guess is Lexie, and third guess is Callie. I do think it would be one of these three. I guess it could be April as well, but I am thinking Arizona or Lexie is most likely. And of those two, I am leaning towards Arizona being the fatality. (With Lexie sustaining career-altering injuries, such as paralysis.)
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking its Webber for weeks now,i guess i'll stick with him
ReplyDeletebut why in the story would it be Arizona? Why introduce the dying BFF only to kill her? Makes no sense to me.
ReplyDeleteNope, he just signed a deal to return next season.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was him,when i started thinking that way he hadn't signed,do you have any idea when this happened?
ReplyDeleteBut James Pickens Jr. has signed for two more seasons, as same as Ellen, Patrick, Sandra, Justin and Chandra.
ReplyDeleteSo i've just been told by Klutzy_girl. :)
ReplyDeletepode ser a Arizona ( ja que Jessica está gravida), ou ainda pode ser que no acidente ninguem morra mas sim alguem que ficou no hospital, e o acidente de avião foi só pra despistar, se não for Arizona acho que pode ser ainda Kepner...
ReplyDeleteI agree, killing off Arizona in this way at this time (especially when Callie isn't there) makes very little sense. I'm torn equally between Lexie and April at this point.
ReplyDeleteso many people have voted for her but no one explains why.
ReplyDeleteI don't want Lexie to die... but I'm pretty sure it's her. What was the point of the whole "friend comes to the hospital and is gonna die from cancer"-storyline if Arizona is just gonna die anyway? Seems kinda random to me.. And April still has the whole thing with Jackson.. Lexie doesn't seem to have anything going on..
ReplyDeleteIf Lexie dies, Alex and Cristina would stick around for Mer. That's for sure.
ReplyDeleteIt's gonna be Lexie...the whole "I love you speech" to Mark and his hesitation to say it back to her makes me think it's definitely Lexie, Shonda has said their reunion will be bitter sweet...he'll say he loves and wants her only to be too late :(
ReplyDeleteHaven't had that thought before, but now that you mention it, it's definitly a possibility. Plus I don't really like Kepner, so it'd definitly be okay with me.
ReplyDeleteBut during the interviews with Shonda it always sounded like it'd be someone more important to the series, a character who has been there for longer...
Why can't it be Teddy? No one would object to it being Teddy.
ReplyDeleteI would...
ReplyDeleteThen you m'lady, are solidly in the minority in this regard.
ReplyDeleteRichard is my guess. He above all has had the most impact on all the residents as well as the attendings.
ReplyDeleteDr. Stark just happened to be camping when the plane landed on his tent.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's Lexie for the simplest of reasons: Shonda wrote the finale with the possibility of losing Ellen. Which does mean keeping the other Grey around is kinda mandatory....
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking it's either Arizona (great fallout and drama for Callie, Alex and Mark) or April (the suicide theory kinda fits nicely too....)
After what i just read i now believe it is Arizona that dies.I'm not saying see is the only one but she dies.
ReplyDeleteIf someone is going to die from the plane crash its got to be between Lexie, Mark and Arizona as Meredith, Christina and Derek have renewed their contracts. I don't mind Mark or Arizona dying but I don't want it to be Lexie
ReplyDeleteLexie. Meredith is the only one of the characters who wants to stay at Seattle Grace. What would change Derek, Christina and Karev's minds into staying there if not for Meredith? I rest my case.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you just read?
ReplyDeleteno Arizona!!!
ReplyDeletePLEASE DONT LET IT BE LEXIE
ReplyDeleteThe BFF has gone off to die and it gave the chance for the scene between both Callie and Arizona about not leaving here and also gave a reason for Arizona to be on the plane and not Alex. The anger from him going to die meant she totally overreacted with Alex and ordered him off the plane instead of what she would normally do, which would have been to try to alk him into staying. He was a means to an end, the BFF.
ReplyDeleteRichard Webber. James Picken Jr.'s contract renewal was a red herring. The finale was filmed before the renewals and if he was not included in the list along with Patrick and Ellen it would have been too obvious.
ReplyDeleteI voted Kepner purely because I'm in denial about either Lexie or Arizona.
ReplyDeleteI think someone dying at the crash place seems to predictable for Shonda, but it could happen. Here's a my take on a few characters:April--suicide. She really has nothing left. I think fans may be in an uproar because of how she dies not so much who dies. It's not often that television tackles suicides, and it's one type of ending Grey's hasn't touched yet.
ReplyDeleteArizona-- She was telling people not to leave her, but she ends up leaving them. This could also lead to the bittersweet part for Mark & Lexie. He had gotten a much closer relationship with her, so as he's losing one close friend/a mother to his child, he's admitting his feelings for Lexie. It could almost seem inappropriate to him to do this when tragedy has struck for Callie. Her death would also provide a reason for Alex to stay and take over the PEDS position. I don't feel it is her though because of the comments made by both Jessica Capshaw & Shonda when it was announced JC was pregnant. Another reason I can't see Arizona biting it is the fact she's one half of the only homosexual couple on this show. Shonda prides herself on diversity of cast, so I can't see her eliminating this relationship.
Adele-- To Shonda, this may be a beloved character. You never know.
Lexie-- I really just don't see a Lexie death really sending waves though people. Yes, it would impact Mark, Meredith, Jackson, ect., but I just don't feel as though her character has been focused on enough this season for it really to send fans in a tizzy. I can't think of many really good reasons why it would be her.
Webber-- I could definitely see this because of his crossing into everyone's story lines lately.
Alex, Owen, Teddy, Callie, Richard, Bailey, April and Jackson will survive or not in danger as they were not on the pane when it crashed.
ReplyDeleteThat leaves Meredith, Cristina, Arizona, Derek, Mark, Arizona and Lexie were all on the plane and are all in danger of dying.
i see april losing it and killing herself. it feels too obvious that someone from the plane crash dies.
ReplyDeleteI have been saying for a while that April will freak out and she just went on the "GUILT TRIPPING DRUNK BINGE" so she will most likely commit suicide causing the plane crash to be a decoy. There will be injuries, but I think the death is going to be either April or Owen committing suicide and I really thing April has snapped beyond return.
ReplyDeleteThe writers on this show are VERY slick....never go for the obvious. Come on I thought you guys were truly GA fans! APRIL OR OWEN will commit suicide or April will wreck in a drunk accident. The plane crash is way to obvious.
ReplyDeleteLexie is little Grey so killing her off would end the show if Meredith ever left....so she is the spare Grey in a sense if you think of it that way.
Arizona is noted to be ok on a site by the writers.
Its going to have to keep all of them from leaving Seattle Grace.. Soo i'm thinking it won't be Lexie because if i was Derek and Mere that would make me go, Maybe Arizona because then Alex can take over her job but can't see why everybody else wouldn't still go, I think it could be Kepner killing herself because that would make people sad and wan't to stay In Seatlle maybe, but i thought maybe Bailey would be the best fit because everybody would want to go back out of respect for her because of everything she's done for them, not sure if she got on the plane but it would be smart if it turns out she got on the plane after hearing the news that her Boyfriend's leaving her.. eeee i don't know so excited!! But hoping its Kepner she does my tree in! :)
ReplyDeleteNever mind about Bailey she's coming back
ReplyDeleteThis is what it said in an article:
ReplyDeleteQuestion-What about Callie & Arizona
Shonda- You get to see them working together as a couple in a way that's really lovely.And then in the finale,there's nothing i can say.
This was taken from an article that was posted here"Latest From EW- May 11
If you look under "What the hell just happened on Grey's Sue.
The words highlighted in blue will take you to more info about Grey's and the finale.
I really do think in will be Arizona who dies!!
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's gonna be Kepner, because she isn't a beloved character and what impact her death would make to the others in the hospital, now if either Lexie or Arizona dies, the impact would be major, they are beloved characters, they have deep conection with everyone else and the fans reaction would be totally crazy...dont you think? I voted for Lexie, however I have my doubt between them!
ReplyDeletei cant know for sure yet
ReplyDeleteIt just can not be Arizona.
ReplyDeleteAll original cast members are said to be safe...so none of them are dying
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info. There's so much stuff flying around out there.
ReplyDeleteStill picture Dr. Stark in his tent warming some beans on his Coleman propane cooker when the engine falls on his head. (Monty Python meets Grey's)
it better not be Lexie but if it is Sloan is going to fu*kin flip out i bet
ReplyDeleteJust going to put it out there...if Lexie or Arizona die I am probably not going to watch Greys next season.
ReplyDeleteI thought Lexie had a contract till next year! That's why we haven't heard anything regard Chyler Leigh signing another one
I was thinking Arizona much as I'd hate that, but all the comments about Lexie are making it seem more plausible - Meredith and Mark obviously being hit hard, but Jackson and Alex may also struggle for their past relationships with her and Derek being the brother in law. Hmm.
ReplyDeleteBut your comments about her not having much storyline this season - does this remind you of George much? In the final season or two he just existed in the background much of the time, making TJ Knight want to leave.
Chyler Leigh has three kids, including a recent baby. And she was pretty much introduced to the series to a) give Meredith stability and family, which she now has with Derek and Zola, and b) to take over the reigns as the 'Grey' in Greys Anatomy if at the end of season 8 Ellen Pompeo left. That's why they all call her Little Grey. Now Ellen's in, Chyler could quite feasibly be out. Won't miss her that much, although I love her, she just didn't have enough recent good storylines to warrant a tug at the heartstrings from fans - except for maybe her recent declarations of love for Mark, which were not acknowledged by him (have her die and then so enter the guilt that he will feel next season: argh tv is so predictable!).
That's goldMarianne Santos Yeah wouldn't that be satisfying :)
ReplyDeleteKepner and Avery wasnt on the plane!! So they cant die.
ReplyDeleteI am thinking it is going to be Arizona. In "Migration" she told Callie "never to leave her", but in the end, she will be the one leaving Callie.
ReplyDeleteI think either Lexi or Arizona
ReplyDeleteThanks to the promo I'd say Lexie or Arizona
ReplyDeleteI think it is Teddy. Her story just seems over. And it might make Yang stay.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't it be Jackson? No one would object to it being Jackson.
ReplyDeleteAt the moment I hope its Lexie, the only other characters that I see in danger as well are Callie and Arizona, so I hope it's Lexie.
ReplyDeletestill could be 2 people kicking the bucket, lexie and april could both go out.
ReplyDeleteeither Lexie or Arizona but i don't want either to die
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking they would of maybe filmed multiple ending's, then based on contract's it would be easy to slot in which ever ending they want. Shonda was said to be still editing as late as last week.
ReplyDeleteThat's not Kepner because the suicide thing is too obvious, and the actress herself said that the viewers could think at the end of the penultimate episode that they know who will die, but that no one could know until the finale ... I think it is Lexie ...or both Lexie AND Arizona. That's the only ways I can understand why Shonda Rhimes is afraid about viewers reactions.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's something metaphorical, not the real death of a character. Maybe it's the friendship of Meredith and Cristina, when Mer decides to do something (maybe about Derek, I don't know) that completely pisses of Cristina.
ReplyDeleteNope, the have already mentioned that a character is gonna die.
ReplyDeleteIn the promo, they said: "For ONE of them, it will truly be the end"
ReplyDeleteYour welcome!
ReplyDeleteAnd start doing the crazy walk (Monty python) ;)
I think either Lexi or Arizona unlesss they want us 2 think that and it's really someone who isn't in the plain crash at all like Callie or Teddy .... I'm mean (shonda: "It's sort of the medical case of their lives") .... afterall
ReplyDeleteAs long as there's no cliffhanger... I can't waitall summer!
ReplyDeleteSo it's Lexie. But may be they will let us with a sort of cliffhanger about Arizona's life and about the rescue.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone whose on the plane is going to live, thats its just some kind of massive storyline and itll show like everyone struggling to survive and then mark will confess all the lexie...in between trying to save her but she will survive. I seriously think the plane crash is just like hoax type thing since we know someone will 'die' and they think by throwing in a plane crash everyone will think its someone whose on the plane.
ReplyDeleteBut i think its going to be April. and i think she'll either end up in some massive crash or collision herself or her commiting suicide. becuase she said it herself last episode she 'has nothing left'. i mean she doesnt, she failed her boards, broke her promise and doesnt have a job...and she didnt wanna disappoint her parents and she feels all alone. And itll effect everyone becuase everyones now close even to april, jackson will be broken becuase of it and will blame himself as he made her break her promise and he;; think its what made her fail her boards etc etc and April has started to become a fan faviourite suprisingly enough. And i think her committing suicide will be what makes it heartbreaking becuase if the writers write it perfectly, which in 99% of the heartbreaking scenes they write on the show they do then it will break all of our hearts watching it and we will all be tearing up.
And this covers everything thats shondas said about the death
Why on Earth are people voting for characters we know are returning next season - Meredith/Christina/Alex/Derek etc...it's between Lexie and Arizona!
ReplyDeleteCouple character is in safe, Ausiello talk about this: http://tvline.com/2012/05/01/spoilers-glee-greys-anatomy-castle-bones/
ReplyDeleteAnd I think, who sign in two years, not be dead, because why sign like James Pickens Jr., if maybe dead. It's stupid thing. But we see on finale. I hope so not Lexie.
Maybe those people are not as well informed as you?
ReplyDeleteLexie only because I hate her the most. But, the signs are pointing to her anyway so it could be her or anyone but please don't kill off April she's become a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteExactly why they would kill off Apirl. She's become a fan fav!!
ReplyDeleteHa! I wouldn't object but there are some very vocal Jackson fans out there who would.
ReplyDeleteIm finding it funny how people are like they cant kill off april, i dont want it to april blah blah blah..cause she's my fav etc ect OF COURSE THEY WOULD. it says FAN FAV and aprils become that!!! So people are saying lexie and ariona cos rather them than her....thats just soo stupid!!
ReplyDeleteSorry but its true
Well, I got a theory.. What the plane-thing would be just a Meredith's dream? It won't be the first time that some tragedy happens in her dreams (remember the first episode of the 5th season when she dreamt about Derek's death after he spoke with Rose?) (this could explain the death of someone of the old cast). I think that no-one from the actual cast could die. Everyone has its storyline.. Well, probabilly I'm just trying to be positive.. we should wait and stop making our head spinning around LOL
ReplyDeleteMaybe because they are not as well informed as you?
ReplyDeleteJust so everyone knows. Even though they signed a contract, remember in Shonda land the dead comes back... Constantly. I.E. Denny
ReplyDeleteWhat you're forgetting in this theory is that April has been shown to be a very strict christian, as evidenced by her saving herself for marriage. Committing suicide is seen in the bible as being a crime worthy of sending someone to hell, so I don't think she would!
ReplyDeleteThat's not logical at all. The show has stayed fairly accurate to the medical student world, and there's no way Alex would be offered Arizona's job, head of pediatrics. Also, this wouldn't account for Meredith, Derek, April, Jackson and Christina staying.
ReplyDeleteWhy people think Arizona will dead?
ReplyDeleteI think 2-3 people may die in the finale. I feel the announcement that has several cast members renewing their ocntracts is 'iffy' to me. They have been so 'hush-hush' on letting anything form the finale leak that I find it very odd that they would let the information about the cast members who renewed contracts to come out AND they supposedly signed contracts a few days BEFORE ABC renewed the series for one more year? Why not wait one more week or son to release this contract info? Smoke screen!?! Hmmm...! At the finale Derek will be missing until next season. He will be missing long enough to lose the contract with Boston thus mer Der stays in Seattle. Arizona and or Lexie dies and one other person dies and it's not a suicide April is drunk and almost walks in front of a car and Jackson pushes her out of the way and dies (like George died almost) OR April is so drunk she gets into another bar fight and whomever she is fighting with pulls out a knife or gun and Jackson steps in the way and gets killed. hmm...I think the following could happen leaving it possible for many to stay at Seattle Grace. Teddy leaves and Christian stays in Teddy's spot because Mer is going through a lot over Derek being missing and possibly Lexie dying. Alex stays in Arizona's spot. April is hired by Owen to fill an empty spot. So the finale will leave us wondering if Derek dies or not. (I think he will be dying) Whomever dies the wriuter is very worried that fans will hate her so it has to be a BIG fan favorite. Or a big upset like 2-3 deaths. hmm.... What do you think?
ReplyDeleteI wonder why they released the information about the cast signing contracts so soon. Could it be a smoke screen because they have tried so hard to keep the finale under wraps. Im afraid we are going to be shocked because we are believing the infor about contract signings and it may not be true
ReplyDeleteThe only way that I can see Alex, Jackson , Mer Der and Christina staying is the following. Derek is missing from accident and he is missing long enough for Boston to give conrtact offer to someone else. Teddy is leaving so Christina stays only because of Mer and Mer facing loss of Derek and/or Lexie. Arizona dies so Alex stays and Jackson is killed saving April's life and/or April or JAckson stays in Seattle offrered job because Lexie died
ReplyDeleteBut so is having sex and shes already said she feels like jesus has left her..she doesnt know how to ask for his help etc etc. which means in a way that wouldnt matter to her cause she's 'alone' now. i mean people who feel they have nothing left to live for do do terrible things in a moment when obviously they dont think they got anything else left. Which is april in this exact moment and period.
ReplyDeleteYou do realize that Alex would be a Fellow not an Attending right? So there's noway he could take over Arizona's spot (same goes for Cristina if Teddy left). Plus, if she did die I would think that he would be more inclined to leave for Hopkins, were as if she was paralyzed or severely injured he might stay out of guilt. However, if Lexie dies that leaves an opening for April in the 5th year spot. Here's what convinced me it was Lexie:
ReplyDeletehttp://singing-fireflies.tumblr.com/post/22834390220/who-i-think-will-die-in-8x24-promo-analysis
The fact that they didn't show who died here was possibly a way to leave the door open for who died. Could have been any of them on the plane (or elsewhere I guess). Could even have been the choice between Mer and Lexie if that's what Shonda wanted to do.
ReplyDeleteJust want to point out that April is definitely a danger to herself after everything that's happened, so the death may not necessarily be because of the plane crash.
ReplyDelete*I think it might be April. She is feeling lost and after failing the board ... Yeah April.
ReplyDelete{no Lexie, pwease? She is one of my favorite!}
♥
i don't see why all these people think April is gonna die. She's not even on the plane! She's at the hospital when the crash happens. I'm afraid for Lexie though, I hope it's not her...
ReplyDeleteAlso Jessica Capshaw is pregnant again. Maybe SHE wants to stay home after the birth...
ReplyDeleteSomeone who has been there longer would be Callie, because the original are safe, so is Mark. And Callie is important to both Arizona and Mark. But I hope not, I really like her...
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the suicide thing. I don't think she'll kill herself just when she gets a storyline (losing everything and getting closer to Jackson). Plus, I don't think they would show a suicide on Grey's. Private Practice yes, Grey's no. But then, I could be wrong.
ReplyDeleteOr Callie dies, and they can't enjoy their reunion, because Mark is grieving and their reunion is a painful reminder of her death...
ReplyDeleteAre you sure Callie isn't on the plane? Cause if she's not, that leaves only Lexie or Arizona, all the others are safe, confirmed by TVLine (Ausiello is usually not wrong)
ReplyDeleteMe neither, but I'd settle for Arizona if it's between the two.
ReplyDeleteYou just killed most of the cast...
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I think it's going to be Arizona. :( I feel like, the conversation between her and Callie, then the sudden taking of Karev's spot on the plane, not to mention she appears to be trapped under a piece of the plane, I think that its gonna be her. It almost felt like she was saying goodbye to Callie, without actually saying goodbye. Jessica Capshaw is currently pregnant with her third child. She may very well want to spend more time with her family rather than at the studio all the time. It sucks! She's totally my favorite! I watch it mainly because of her (and Callie too)!! :'(
ReplyDeleteActually, I just saw again the promo and Callie is not on the plane, since there is only 6 people on in. Also, the canadian promo clearly states that the person dying in one of the people in the plane crash. So Lexie or Arizona.
ReplyDeleteDerek is not gonna die. Patrick Dempsey has renewed his contract!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't saying that Alex is going to become the only pediatric surgeon in the next season but actually this could be possible in a probably season ten or eleven; he could stay because he owes this to Arizona who has done the impossible to make him the person that he's now. Anyway, I'm not trying to suppor the death of Arizona.. I adore her but I feel that it's the only explanation to everything. Who do u think is gonna die?
ReplyDeleteAfter the new promo (http://www.spoilertv.com/2012/05/greys-anatomy-episode-824-flight-new.html) I'm pretty sure that Lexie dies. In this promo we see all characters in a not so bad shape besides of Lexie. She is trapped, seems to has internal injuries and close her eyes. Of course I hope this is a false trail.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with the theories about the probable death of April; this is not CSI and so much crime and drama doesn't fit with Grey's ;) however I have thought the same thing about Owen and the reinstatement of Aprile (of course to fill the spot left by Arizona)
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure that this is just a false trail, it happens everytime on GA.
ReplyDeleteplus, have to say it about april, she isnt a beloved character as shonda stated the person who dies was. i don't think she would be so concerned about fan reaction to her death. i didnt dislike her, but it seems MANY people did. i just cant see there being a concern over fan reaction to her death.
ReplyDeleteI think it's too obvious to be Lexie, plus I don't want her to die because she's a brilliant character.
ReplyDeleteBut my theory is that Kepner gives up and kills herself.
I think it will be Derek only because that would give both Meredith and Christina a reason to stay in Seattle. Killing Arizona or Lexie while sad would not have the impact of making all the others change their palns to leave SG and go on to other jobs. Killing Derek would mean Meredith would stay were her family is and Christina (maybe Alex too) would stay to help her.
ReplyDeleteExactly what I meant!
ReplyDeleteWe know that Dempsey has renewed the contract so he's not gonna die!
ReplyDeletei think it will be karev
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have a heart attack or a stroke by thursday....
ReplyDeleteShonda really wants to kill me...
"joining George, Denny, Reed and Percy"... Uhm, other than George, why do the other 3 matter? They weren't major characters.
ReplyDeleteit catn be april...she was at the bar :S and the actress thats makes in arizona character, is pregnant, so i think she will die... i dont know why,cause, as she's pregnant, she wont be probably in the show when her baby was born..so...it must to be arizona.
ReplyDeleteReally I'm just picking Arizona because I don't know who's going to die but I hope it's her.
ReplyDeleteI just went frame by frame to watch this promo since there are so many quick flashes. Just a few overall thoughts based on this promo... Based on hearing the first few sentences, it sounds like Callie will be doing the pre-and-post monologues for the show. Also, it is very clear that the character who will die is one of the six in the plane. So, any considerations for characters not on the place are incorrect.
ReplyDeleteThere is one frame showing Derek. He has a cut on his forehead, and it looks like his left arm is trapped under something.
Arizona sitting up against the plane so they are able to free her.
All the frames of Lexi are with her still under the plane, and there is one frame where her eyes seem to freeze upward even though Mark is there with her. So, it looks like Lexi is the one to die.
In Shonda's interview with the Hollywood Reporter, in reference to Mark and Lexi, she said, "I think we are going to see that come to a head in a way that's beautiful and possibly bittersweet and kind of lovely."
I drew some of the same conclusions as you that it was Lexie, then went into denial and now you have convinced me again. After reading your theory i am now 100% convinced it is Lexie :(. Why my favorite character why???
ReplyDeleteIf it's anyone at the plane crash, it'll be Arizona and that'll keep Karev at SGH. Derek might feel slightly more inclined to stay knowing it's just Mark and Cali raising the baby.... And we keep hearing it is a beloved character. i like lexi but she's nowhere near as "loved" as Arizona is--and Jessica Capshaw is pregnant again, isn't she. That'll be her 3rd kid...
ReplyDeletei could also see the plane crash being used as a decoy and someone who is not there, like Richard dying instead. Having Richard die would entice Christina, Karev and company to stay, for sure/
Justin Chambers has already re-signed for two more years on the show.
ReplyDeleteJames Pickens Jr, who plays Webber, already re-signed for two more years on the show.
ReplyDeleteIf it is to be "dark" it will not be Lexie or April. Sorry they do not provide much to the storyline, in my opinion. Arizona would be the most likely candidate esp with the forbodding of "Don't ever leave me", which could means it may beTorres. So, my vote is one of those two.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note: Season was boring to me. Not enough episodes and frankly tired of the Christina Owen / Teddy stuff. Lexie have some self respect. April's character makes Christians look like idiots. Get some confidence. Alex will stay to take over Arizona's role.
My 2 cents.
Agreed. The APril role is not big enough to be of major concern.
ReplyDeleteDerek, Meredith, Cristina and Alex, Bailey and Webber have all resigned their contracts for another two years. My vote is Teddy - storyline is pretty well done and it would leave an opening for head of cardio for Cristina so she won't be able to leave...
ReplyDeleteEveryone keeps saying "don't expect the obvious" but no one has guessed Callie as the one killed off. She could be crossing the street and get hit by a car. Tada.
ReplyDeleteArizona freaking out last week telling her never to leave her- hello? Killing Callie off will write half of next season! And it doesn't matter who is on the plane - no one is safe, it's been said in many interviews.
Callie is a beloved character.. She was married to George, she hated Izzy, she turns lesbo with Erika, then Arizona, then has the baby, then the car accident where she almost died already?! She IS a beloved character, and her narrating the episode- it would be perfect for her own death. Sure she was already almost killed- that's what makes everyone think it WON'T be her. :)
I believe Arizona will die, simply because she was originally not supposed to be on the plane. She only boarded the plane because she was miffed with Alex.
ReplyDeleteOn thursday I was sure it was Lexie, but I kind think it is going to be Teddy or Owen just because the entire plane crash is a red herring and who ever dies is at the hospital rather than in the crash. It is a complete misdirect! There are a multitude of reasons not to kill both Arizona and Lexie. It would show that Shonda Rhimes personally hates her Callie character because she has had almost the most shit happen to her! Killing Lexie wouldn't make sense because they didn't know if EP was going to renew her contract.
ReplyDeleteI also love the idea of someone "dying" in the finale and being resusitated in the beginning minutes of the premiere. If that ends up turning out that way then I'm voting for Lexie because both Mark and Meredith are there to try like hell to save her. Arizona dying all alone sounds to dark, especially for this show.
thinking chyler has asked to be let out of her contract. She did take extra time off at the start of this season to spend with her family, she has 3 young children and i do believe 1 has special needs. So this is most likely what has occured.
ReplyDeleteTechnically, neither was Cristina. Teddy let her take her place as a way to woo Cristina to stay at SGMW. And can someone tell me why was Lexie even on the plane in the first place?
ReplyDeleteBut here's the thing. If Arizona dies that just give Alex another reason to leave SGMW. Now if she's severely hurt (let's say temporally paralyzed) he might stay out of guilt. Which ties into the "don't ever leave me" with Callie. Callie finished by saying "what ever you can't do, I will. That's how this works." That makes it seem as if something is going to happen to Arizona were she might have to rely heavily on Callie in the future (possible paralysis). Plus, Alex couldn't take Arizona's place even if he wanted to. He would be a fellow not an attending (same goes for Cristina) and Arizona is the head of peds. So there's NO way a fellow could ever take over the head of pediatric surgery position.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Arizona. Her taking Alex's place on the plane, and her asking Callie never to leave her, all seem to have been a foreshadow of what was going to happen
ReplyDeletethe first person that came in my mind was callie torres because arizona made her say she wont leave as arizona's friend who is dieing of cancer iw would make a good story line when arizona needs to raise the baby who's mother is callie and dad is mark sloan? just wanted to share my first thought
ReplyDeleteMy theory. So Alex, Christina, Meredith, Bailey, Richard and Derek have been confirmed for the next season. Owen, Avery, April and Callie don't seem to be on the plane. That leaves Teddy, Mark, Lexie and Arizona. They can't kill Arizona because the Callie and Mark characters would lose in appeal without her, the Callie-Arizona relationship draws a lot of viewers(unless she force-quited the series which does not seem that likely). Teddy dying would not give enough of an effect. That makes it Lexie or Mark which makes sense because there is no good way to save their relationship and also they both have emotional ties to several of the characters, plus they can have a heartbreaking seasonfinale where one dies in the other's arms. If they want the characters to figure out that they must stay together to support each other, they'll kill Lexie, though I'd rather Mark died, he's old and I don't really like him. :p
ReplyDeleteLexie!
ReplyDeleteI'm still thinking Lexie will die.
ReplyDeleteThey can't kill Arizona off, there's still a lot of stories to tell.
On top of that, Shonda once said that she doesn't want to give Calzona real drama for a very long time, they suffered enough throughout season 7 what with all the breaking up and Callie being pregnant and having that car accident with the weird singing episode. Arizona dying would just put the focus all on Callie and the baby again and Shonda just wouldn't do that, at least not this close together.
Plus, someone else mentioned that there's no good way to end Lexie's and Mark's relationship - which turns out to be true. She doesn't want what he needs and he can't wait for her to get there.
Lexie has been on Derek's service, so I'm assumin she's on the plane to assist him. True enough about Christina, but Arizona abruptly took Alex' place. I am positively apoplectic waiting for Thursday.
ReplyDeleteBut why would Derek need Lexie to assist him? They are all going to Boise Memorial to assist their surgeons. Meredith went instead of Bailey, Teddy let Cristina take her place, Jackson isn't there to assist Mark and of course Arizona took Alex's place. There doesn't really seem to be a need for Lexie to assist Derek if he is going there to assist himself. So again I ask, why was Lexie even on the plane?
ReplyDeleteonly, it's cali who will die.
ReplyDeletein the quinte-shonda "bait and switch," cali will die, not arizona.
ReplyDeleteall the focus is on the plane crash because this is all that is previewed. the grim reaper will visit seattle grace, not the site of the crash. that's the real twist.
ReplyDeleteI now have no clue who may die. I didnt think they would kill Derek but I did think he would be missing until next season. Ms Rhimes said a 'dark dark death' SO I am think a suicide or murder. The woman who lost her baby last week kills Alex? Owen after hearing the news of the plane crash and hearing they think no survivors kills himself? Adele dies and Richard cant live without her and kills himself? April kills herself? OR maybe someone from the crash site whom we think is ok dies. Arizona dies while trying to help the pilot and the plane blows up. A part of the plane falls on someone who is walking around and they are crushed and die instantly. Or maybe it is Lexie and we are all trying to guess when it has been her all along. But Ms Rhimes did nto finish the finale until yesterday I believe. So whatever she had planned originally she had to change due to the cast members who renewed contracts altered the original ending she had in mind Who knows Suicide or Alex is murdered.
ReplyDeleteI think it will be Owen, this maybe the offer that Teddy receives, and then it would be interesting to see how Yang would handle his death.
ReplyDeleteI think April is going to kill herself, I mean, her life is spiraling down, she has nothing left. I REALLY hope it's not Arizona! I love her!!
ReplyDeleteOkay I got it :P
ReplyDeleteIf it is to be "dark" it will not be Lexie or April. Sorry they do not provide much to the storyline, in my opinion. Arizona would be the most likely candidate esp with the forbodding of "Don't ever leave me", which could means it may beTorres. So, my vote is one of those two.

My 2 cents.
Wings off a small private jet without the fuel are not that heavy and with some proper leverage it could be raised enough to pull someone out. Lexie isn't the one.
