Sometimes in life you need people to fight for you.
They can find rare blood for your transfusion.
They can call an audible to preserve your life during a routine appendectomy.

And if their name is Dr. Jackson Avery, they can find you a new penis.
Jackson offers his mama a transplant penis as a welcome back to the OR gift that he recently procured.
Remember how Meredith performed a pioneering surgery on Owens sister Megan by transplanting an abdominal wall?
Its the same thing, except way more medically involved.
Now the team has gathered together to help offer him a renewed sense of self.
Not only that, but shes pregnant!
With her brothers baby!
Their lack of excitement clues Megan in that something is terribly wrong with this scenario.
The fact that Tom walks up, giving Teddy advice on buying a house, solidifies Megans suspicions.
She is not happy and highly disappointed in her brothers stupidity.
But her rampage will have to wait until after her very important surgery.
Unfortunately, Megan cant escape Owens shadow since Catherine invited him to scrub in on the transplant procedure.
All seems well until Calebs girlfriend comes storming into the room.
Or should I say ex-girlfriend.
Anna has no idea what is going on and demands answers.
The team slowly realizes that Caleb has been lying to them.
Anna was allegedly Calebs support.
Yet Anna has no clue whats going on.
Catherine cancels the surgery as a result.
While one group struggles in the urology department, another battle is going on in pediatrics.
Karev is finally back where he belongs and is slammed with an interesting case his first day back.
Gus is autistic and doesnt like being physically touched.
Karev gets creative and uses building blocks to help Gus gauge his pain levels.
They manage to get a CT scan that solves Gus problem.
He has a tumor on his thymus gland.
Since hes so anemic, they must do a blood transfusion before surgery is even an option.
They manage the transfusion, but Gus has a reaction to the blood.
At first its assumed that he was given the wrong blood.
Once Maggie takes a look, she figures out that he is Rhnull.
He has golden blood and can only receive the same during a transfusion.
Easy enough, right?
There are roughly 50 people who have this blood.
And Karev found four who may be a fit for Gus.
Hes determined to help this little boy, because he cant seem to help his wife.
Poor Jo is circling the drain.
Link heads over to the house to try and get her out of bed.
He sort of succeeds when he lures her from under the covers with alcohol.
They laugh and reminisce as the day turns to night and the bottle turns empty.
Then Jo hits a weird wall and starts rambling about how shes a runner.
She lists off all the people shes left and happens to mention that her mother did the same thing.
Its in her blood.
She cant help it.
This revelation makes Link nervous.
So much so that he calls Karev to come home immediately.
Ill admit that I am warming to DeLuca and Meredith together, although Im not there yet.
Were also unsure if Weber is on board.
Both have successfully avoided Weber since he accidentally walked in on their tryst.
But what are you supposed to do when they are the foundation of your workspace?
While in surgery, Weber asks DeLuca, What is your plan?
Weber rolls his eyes and clarifies his question with, What is your plan surgically?
Before DeLuca can die from embarrassment, he finds something in his patients abdomen that shouldnt be there.
Weber starts to take over, just as DeLuca commands the surgical team, barking orders left and right.
He gets snippy with Weber, who immediately stands down and watches the surgeon go to work.
DeLuca crushes the surgery.
And he wins Webers approval in the process.
MerLuca is alive and well and ready to move forward in their relationship.
She instructs Avery and Owen to put it all on ice while she has a chat with Caleb.
Owen stops her and plays his own penis card.
Shouldnt a guy be the one to talk to another guy about whats really going on?
Megan relents and Owen has a heart-to-heart with Caleb.
Then he tells Catherine that she has to do the surgery.
He knows from experience in the field that having the transplant is what Caleb needs to move forward.
It will help more than it will hurt.
Megan stares at her brother while he monologues about moving forward and veterans needing help.
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
She follows Owen into the stairwell and in two sentences, asks him what weve all been wondering forever.
How could he just leave Germany and not take the time to fight for Teddy?
How could he waltz back into Amelias life and start a family like everything was normal?
She grabs his face and begs him to go to counseling.
Like everyone else in the hospital, Owen needs to do the work to fix whats wrong.
He needs to fight for himself.
