'Grey's Anatomy' Gay Re-Cap: Arizona's the Lesbian Who Hates Camping

Fri, 2012-02-10 21:55

Tis the season for Valentine’s Day themed TV episodes, and Grey’s Anatomy’s V-Day episode offered plenty of falling in and out of love stories amidst harrowing life and death situations, except for the most adorable docs on television, Callie and Arizona, whose Valentine’s Day went pretty smoothly save for Arizona’s aversion to camping, which thereby shattered the lesbian stereotype! Here’s what Callie (Sara Ramirez) and Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) got up to in a VD episode that would make romantics out of the Grinchiest of lovebirds, but that’s Shonda Rhimes for you.

Ep. 8:14 “All You Need is Love”

It’s morning in the Calzona household and Arizona is trailing a slinky-nighty clad Callie through the house.

“So did you make a reservation at somewhere beautiful – lots of flickering candles?” Arizona asks as Callie pours a cup of coffee (my kind of girl).

“I made a plan. I think you’ll like it,” Callie says somewhat cryptically. “You should pack a bag.” Arizona perks up at the thought of an overnight as Callie explains that Mark (Eric Dane) has gotten a sitter for baby Sofia.” Although, if you’ll recall, the last time Callie and Arizona headed out for an overnight it ended with a horrific car crash, Callie in critical condition, a musical episode, a baby and a wedding…

Attempting to plan for their getaway, or perhaps, just digging for clues to the surprise, Arizona asks what she should bring – “a bathing suit?”

“No bathing suit. Boots wouldn’t hurt,” Callie says to Arizona’s chagrin.

“So, cool,” Arizona says.

“It wouldn’t hurt to bring long underwear, extra fleece,” Callie says, clearly setting Arizona up but then chiding her for making a face. “It will be fun…romantic,” Callie says.
