'Grey's Anatomy' Recap of Season 17, Episode 12 — 'Sign o' the Times' With Phylicia Rashad - TVLine

When Jackson arrived at the hospital with mom Catherine, he asked about his and Alma’s proposal to offer testing to low-income people.

‘IT LOOKS LIKE YOU LOST A BAR FIGHT’ | Treating Nell, Richard and Jackson explained that they wanted to make sure that it hadn’t hit any major arteries before they removed it.

In surgery with Richard, Jackson complained that Mom wasn’t interested in his ideas, only her own.

Naturally, Jackson, never having protested, didn’t understand; he’d always had to work or study, so instead, he’d written a check.

“You think that’s a copout?” he asked Richard, who replied that he tried not to judge.

Post-op, Nell snarked that her situation could’ve been much better — Richard could’ve been the one who’d gotten hit.

She wasn’t worried about another scar, she told Webber, Jackson and Cormac.

‘IT HAS GLASS BRICKS AND ONLY TWO WINDOWS… AND GLASS BRICKS’ | Paged by Owen, Maggie found it difficult to concentrate on her work with Winston texting her about their soon-to-be living arrangements.

Winston was breaking it to his fiancée that he had taken the apartment that she didn’t want when — yikes — he was pulled over by the cops.

“Music off, hat off, hands on the wheel,” Winston told himself before the cop approached.

(If that didn’t put you in the moment, dunno what would.) As Guy went into defib (over and over), Maggie gave her phone to Baby Ortiz to keep calling Winston; she wanted the cops to know that someone was checking on him — constantly.

Before taking Guy into surgery, Maggie begged Richard to go find Winston — and he would, if he didn’t hear from her honey soon.

Thankfully, as soon as Pierce was done in the O.R., Richard had Winston on the phone.

‘IS SHE MEAN?’ | Checking on Meredith with Teddy, Bailey told Altman that she wanted Levi to give her her hyperbaric-chamber treatment?

Maggie, after reporting to Owen that Winston was back on the road, took a call from Guy’s mother to reassure her that he was OK.

Why didn’t he have scars.

He should’ve let them protest — this was their country — so long as it was during the day and with him along.

As Jackson left the hospital, Richard offered him a ride — curfew and all?

Finally, Winston pulled in to the drive at Mer’s and held onto Maggie for dear life
