I watched it before work this morning, and, as Vetgirl said, it was
Abbytastic. I must say MT is looking mighty worn these days.
The whole gang, including Coburn, needs to be reprimanded for their unkind
and insensitive remarks to the woman with the passel of kids. Her
religious
beliefs are nobody's business and telling her she must be nuts for having
so
many was plain old rude.
I noticed the writers seem to have forgotten that Luka was back in
Chicago,
waiting for Abby to come home when his father died, not at his bedside in
Croatia. Or maybe we are supposed to think Luka lied about that in his
job
interview for no apparent reason. Of course, with the sanctification of
Abby getting underway last night, I suppose the demonization of Luka is
inevitable, so maybe we are supposed to think he's a pathologic liar.
I have no idea what the big deal is about the baby's hand being over it's
head at delivery. It's called a compound presentation and it is delivered
just like any other kid. I do not know what all the 'ooohing' and
'ahhing'
was about; nor do I get what special thing it was that Abby had to do to
deliver the kid. By number 13, the trail is pretty well blazed and they
pop
out without much assistance, IMO.
I also don't know what was up with all the insistence that the ER wasn't
equipped to handle the case. Jody O'Brien had an abruption, a shoulder
dystocia and a cesarian, for goodness sakes; this was just a regular
vaginal
birth. Hell, just last year, Abby sawed some chick's pelvis in half to do
a
delivery and nobody batted an eye. I suppose TPTB weren't imaginative
enough to come up with a decently heroic scenario, but were desperate to
start the redemption of their Special Princess, so they figured that
having
her coworkers look on her with awe and admiration and praise her to the
skies for not really doing much of anything was the way to go.
Otherwise, not much else to say about the eppy. Looks like they are
setting
up all of the major crises for the season finale cliffhanger and, by now,
we
can figure out where each character is heading from a mile away.
