Grey's Anatomy S01E01 - A Hard Day's Night

Episode Overview

Meredith Grey, the daughter of renowned surgeon Ellis Grey, is trying to move on from a one-night stand as she prepares for her first day at Seattle Grace Hospital. She quickly sends her companion away, claiming she’s running late. As a first-year intern, she encounters a diverse group of colleagues. Cristina Yang, a fierce and ambitious Stanford grad, becomes her ally. George O'Malley, a kind-hearted and somewhat awkward guy, navigates his first day’s challenges. Izzie Stevens, a former model, faces the same struggles as her peers, while Alex Karev, with his cocky attitude, makes a critical mistake on his shift. The team is supervised by the tough Miranda Bailey, known as 'The Nazi.' To add to Meredith's surprise, she discovers her one-night stand is also her boss.
