HuffPost TV was on the "Grey's Anatomy" set while Campbell was shooting Lizzie's arrival at Seattle Grace this week and the big surgery next week. Read on to hear all about their complicated relationship from Campbell, Pompeo and Dempsey, as well as a bit about the procedure and the "funny" Shepherd family dynamics from Ramirez and Williams.
Meet Lizzie
Dempsey: "Yes, Meredith has brought one of my sisters to Seattle to give me her nerves to try and salvage my surgical career. He's still recovering from the plane crash ... there's a lot of drama going on."
Pompeo: "We're trying to find the nerve for his hand, and he has all these sisters, but he has conflict with all of them. I can't quite figure out why ... well, except for that, on 'Grey's,' everyone has to be conflicted for no reason. We just have to have conflict for conflict's sake! [Laughs.] But for some reason, he has conflict with his sisters."
Campbell: "Derek's been having this issue with his nerves, and they realize that they need a family member's nerves to replace his. So Meredith has brought me into the fold to help my brother out."
The Procedure
Williams: "It's Jackson and Callie handling the procedure -- plastics and ortho. No pressure either ... the most heralded surgeon in the history of this show, and I've got his surgical future in my hands. It's a good way to get back on the horse and take it seriously as an attending now, I guess. You're a big boy now, Jackson!"
Ramirez: "Callie's choosing to focus her energy where she feels needed, where she feels appreciated, where she feels like she can actually help in some way, shape or form. However, it does prove to be a challenge. They were going to try to get a cadaver nerve, but that was getting harder and harder to find the right length of nerve, so they end up calling his sisters and the one that comes through is Lizzie. Neve Campbell is so sweet. So hopefully that works out, but of course, there are a lot of ups and down throughout the episode. It's not that easy."
