I Have Responsibilities! [And they involve getting you naked]

As a Grey's Anatomy fan, and a Merder shipper, I think it is appropriate for me to take a few moments from you to go into an in depth analysis of the best scene of Season 2, stolen from 2x27 [Losing My Religion].

The Prom Sex Scene.

Ah yes, the huge step for our favorite couple. It takes all the sexual tension, all the frustration, all the sad sad pouty Meredith, and flip turns it upside down. It is a release, not only for the couple but for us fans as well. We've sat through 27 episodes (roughly 20 hours) of back and forth Meredith and Derek drama. We've endured the She-Shepherd, The Vet, Steve, Ellis, A bomb in a body cavity, and of course, the horribly awkward and inappropriate sexual encounter between George and our beloved Meredith.

So yeah, Shonda makes it up to us. And dear lord does she do a fantastic job.


Meredith!

Leave me alone!

Meredith!

Just leave me alone!

I just want to make sure you’re alright.

No! I’m not alright! Okay? Are you satisfied? I am not. alright. Because you have a wife. And you call me a whore! And our dog died. And now you’re looking at me. Stop looking at me.


I’m not looking at you. I am not. looking at you.
(Let me just point out... as he says this? Staring right at her. See picture at left for proof.)




You are looking at me. And you watch me. And Finn has plans. And I like Finn, he’s perfect for me. And I’m really trying here, to be happy. And I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe with you looking at me like that so just stop!

Do you think I want to look at you? That I wouldn’t rather be looking at my wife? I’m married! I have responsibilities! She, she doesn’t drive me crazy. She doesn’t make it impossible for me to feel normal. She doesn’t make me sick to my stomach thinking about my veterinarian touching her with his hands! Man, I would give anything not to be looking at you.



A few things I'd like to casually point out about this banter:

1. The entire episode, Derek is staring at her. Any scene that he is in? Staring. And I don't mean casual glance. I mean staring. Pouting and staring and obviously stewing in his own self loathing. Not that I dislike the staring, more staring I say. But why does he even try to deny it? I mean there is obviously some sort of ongoing eye-sex competition between them that everyone else knows about but they don't seem to realize. Deny, Deny, Deny.




2. "...touching you with his hands." I take issue with this statement. Thank you for the specifics, D-Rack, but lets leave the porny thoughts to roam. Sure... he can't touch her with his hands, but I'm pretty sure you don't need hands to do a lot of things. We have mouths and well, I'm sure Finn has that one appendage that he could touch Meredith with. And you're worried about his hands?! Shit. It's like, 'oh hey, you can stick it in her, but just make sure you leave the hands out of it. Cool, thanks.'

......wait... what?!?!

3. I'm Married!
Oh really, Derek? We have been well aware of the fact since 1x09 when your lovely wife appeared and rained on our happy MerDer parade. I'm beginning to think he says this less to make Meredith feel stupid and more to kinda... hammer the realization into himself. It's like... I'm married. I'm married, it's on paper, she loves me. But all I can do is sit and stare and think of you. So maybe the absurdity in his voice is showing his uncertainty. Well, naturally, despite the fact that he throws a bitch fit about being married, he kisses her anyway. And then it progresses, and panties are dropping and theres thrusting to the soft sounds of Grace by Kate Havnevik.

I mean... we all loved it. Hell, Ashley and I love it so much that over winter break we watched the scene on repeat for a cumulative total of about 12 hours. We broke my roommate's dvd player from watching it so many times. Maybe that's sad. Maybe we're just a little bit in love with PDempz and EPompz.

[Note From Dorrie: Sorry about my lack of posting everyone. 3D life is beginning to kick my ass. I give mad props to Ashley for taking over posting for the past few days, I just have been swamped with homework and Valentines Day and blahhh... writers block. I will post more soon, I promise! Thank you all for taking the time to read and enjoy our somewhat ridiculous rants about Grey's Anatomy. We love you for it!]
