“Grey's Anatomy” is in an exciting period in its current plotline, with the love lives of its multiple characters intersecting once again into a potential fiasco. Unfortunately for fans, ABC's beloved medical drama did not make an appearance this week leaving “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5 feeling like the conclusion to a cliffhanger. While fans can appreciate the build-up in tension with the occasional breaks in broadcasting, fans may be wondering why exactly the upcoming episode was delayed.
In a breakdown by Bustle, two factors may have led to the show's mid-October break prior to “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5. The first may be the fact that last week's episode – which featured a crossover with ABC's fire-fighting action drama “Station 19” – was effectively a two-episode broadcast.
The second potential reason for “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5 getting pushed back would be to make space for Halloween holiday specials, “It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” and “Toy Story of Terror!” With the reasons for the “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5 delay out of the way, fans may be interested in what they can expect from the show's upcoming episode.
According to the “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5 synopsis, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) will take the initiative to reach out to Teddy (Kim Raver) about her problems. Fans may remember that Teddy originally told Maggie (Kelly McCreary) about her pregnancy. Unfortunately for Teddy, Maggie shared the news with Meredith as it was troubling her conscience keeping it a secret.
While Maggie telling Meredith about Teddy's secret may be a breach of trust, it might actually be a good thing. With Maggie currently wrapped up in her own love life troubles with Jackson's (Jesse Williams) leave of absence prior to "Grey's Anatomy" season 15 episode 5, Meredith is in a better position to help Teddy with her problem.
Fans looking forward to the continuation of the show's storylines can catch “Grey's Anatomy” season 15 episode 5 when it returns to its regular Thursday broadcast on Oct. 25. Hopefully, the week-long wait will make the upcoming episode a more satisfying watch.
