Meredith looks for roommates to share her mother's house with. Izzie
helps out a Chinese woman whose daughter is in need. Meredith visits
the maternity ward and discovers something wrong with one of the
babies.
Competition between the interns ensues after an annual unauthorized
bike race causes many injuries. Izzie has trouble finding the family of
an almost braindead man. Cristina becomes excited when the patient's
family agrees to harvest his organs if he dies. This causes Dr. Bailey
to lecture Cristina on bedside manner when she becomes out of control.
A patient, who is a friend of Dr. Webber, flirts with George.
When a retired nurse at Seattle Grace is admitted, Cristina takes on
her case and befriends her. A patient who recognizes Izzie from a
modeling photo does not want her to treat him. Meredith and Dr.
Shepherd treat a construction worker who surprisingly survived his
injuries but have bad news in store for his wife about his future.

Trivia
The Inuit doll that frequently appears in episodes is named Ipecac. Ipecac is featured in an Easter Egg in the Season One DVD Bonus Features, where the cast and crew discuss the doll, its name, origins and a plot to kidnap it.
The producers of "Grey's Anatomy" (2005) recently released a novel depicting the lives and happenings of two bit-part characters; Joe the Bartender and Nurse Debbie. The book is double sided written in Blog and IM form, while gossiping on the actions of the Grey's characters. The events discussed give background information for Joe and Debbie themselves and give insight on the events and cases the doctors deal with in the show.
In order to keep the plot and storylines secret, in the sides for auditions, the main characters' names are changed.
The show was originally supposed to be called "Complications".
Katherine Heigl dropped herself out of Emmy consideration in 2008, because she felt that she wasn't given the material that would warrant a nomination.
