George O'Malley Forgot to Tell His Mom

I almost died in this episode when Mrs. O'Malley showed up with clothes she's knitted for Callie and George's little one on the way. Wow! George is in a fix again. Just can't keep any of his women happy can he? Callie Torres receives a whole bag full of clothes before she tracks George down and tells him he HAS to tell his mother. . . . NOW! He works up his courage to tell her, but unfortunately Izzie Stevens got to her first and totally blew the lid off everything (insert foot in mouth). Mrs. O'Malley flips out. They're Catholic! Divorce is unacceptable! Marriage is too important! George tells her it's too late. Callie was a little more tactful, but tells George's mom she no longer believes in marriage and that she enjoyed being an "O'Malley" while she could. Still, Mrs. O'Malley can't bear to leave the hospital. George tells her that it really is over and that he's disappointed in himself. His mom wants him to move back in with her, but George says it's time he starts taking care of himself. I never really thought about that until this point, but George never really does take care of himself, he's always trying so hard to please everyone else. He always seems to do what will make other people happy. He marries Callie suddenly after his father dies I think to help him mom get over her husband's death. He tries to please Callie by trying not to be friends with Izzie anymore, since it makes her jealous. And he tries to please her by having a baby because she wants to. Then she tries to please Isobel since she has confessed her undying love for him and ends his marriage for her. I hope he's really paying attention to himself right here. He seriously needs to take care of himself and do what he needs and what he wants. When you're in a relationship because it's what you want, things go much smoother. Good luck George!

At the end of the day, George and Lexie decide to get a place together. This may be a good move for the both of them. Lexie needs to get away from her abusive father and George just can't go back to Meredith's with all his drama with Lexie. I think they could make a good friendship with eachother. We'll see how that goes.
