GREY’S ANATOMY Redux: “Calzona” Could Be No More and That’s OK!

There’s no Grey’s Anatomy this week but there’s still things to discuss from last week so let’s talk.

Last Thursday’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy saw what could be the end of Callie and Arizona and I’m here to tell you that this is a good thing. Ok, ok … before you all start to riot, let me explain myself. I want to start this off by saying that I’m a Callie and Arizona fan and thought they were definitely going to be endgame when they first got together. But this couple has been through a lot and now, I’m not so sure they are endgame or that I want them to be.

There are so many times when the Calzona relationship has taken a hit that’s hard to decide whien was the moment that we all should have known that it was over. Was it when they broke up because Arizona didn’t want kids? Or was it, when they broke up because Arizona was going to Africa and Callie didn’t really want to go? It could also be when Arizona returned and Callie had slept with Mark and was knocked up with his child. Maybe, it was Arizona cheating on Callie…? I honestly don’t know because it could have been any of those or maybe one that I didn’t even mention.

Safe to say that there’s been a few bumps in the road for them but they appeared to overcome them or so we thought. All those things took a toll on their relationship and they’ve never really been the same since the plane crash at least that’s what I thought. It seems like, to Arizona at least, that they’ve never been the same since Arizona returned from Africa and learning that Callie was sleeping with Mark. Arizona mentioned that in one of their therapy sessions and that threw me for a loop because so much has happened since then yet that still bothers her. If that’s true, then they both have too much to figure out while being together and dealing with everything that comes with being part of a couple.

And I for one am happy that this constant fighting between the two of them will be put to rest. Calzona was getting too annoying and it felt like every other episode was them fighting or arguing. That isn’t healthy and there’s only so much chaos a viewer can take (looking at you Meredith and Derek). Plus, I don’t know about the rest of you but one of my favorite episodes of Grey’s was season 8 episode 18 where we found out that Arizona had slept with multiple people that worked in the hospital. That Arizona seemed fun and lively, I want that Arizona back! I’m interested to see Callie and Arizona, but mostly Arizona, single and ready to mingle (as the saying goes).

Not every relationship is meant to be and I think it’s time we stop believing in Callie and Arizona. Let them find some peace without each other; they both deserve that. Sometimes the greatest act of love is letting someone be happy without you. Plus, as a viewer I’ll be glad that they are apart because they both use to be pretty happy and entertaining characters and now they have been reduced to crying or having an angry face all the time. So no more Calzona, let’s all do a big sigh of relief that this storyline will be put to bed and hope that new and different plots will come these girls way.

Side Note: While I agree that Arizona and Callie shouldn’t be together right now, Arizona’s reason for staying and Callie’s reason for leaving were not the best. Arizona wanted to stay because she’s having a tough time at work and wants “her anchor,” I’m not sure that should be a reason to stay with someone. And Callie’s reason for leaving was crap. She laughed and excelled at work because of the space from Arizona, because she didn’t have to work on keeping them stable. I’m confused? When was Callie doing that recently? I liked the twist that it was Callie and not Arizona that wanted their relationship to end but I think a more believable reason, like they just don’t make each other happy and are probably just staying together because they have a child, would have made more sense.

Sound off below and let me know if you think Arizona and Callie are still end game.
