Dr Addison Montgomery (Kate Walsh, Private Practice) and Ellis Grey (Kate Burton) return in a special ‘What If?’ episode of Grey’s Anatomy.

As Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) puts Zola to bed and falls asleep, she begins to wonder – what if her mother had never had Alzheimers and she’d had loving, supportive parents?

The reverberations of a happy Meredith Grey change the world of Seattle Grace as we know it. What if she had never met Derek (Patrick Dempsey) in that bar and he had never separated from Addison (Walsh)? What if Callie (Sara Ramirez) and Owen (Kevin McKidd) had become a couple long before she met Arizona (Jessica Capshaw)? And what if Bailey (Chandra Wilson) never evolved from the meek intern she once was?

It’s Seattle Grace as it never was – but could have been.
