“Grey’s Anatomy” Season 14 Episode 9 Quick Recap

Jo was horrified when her ex-husband, Dr. Paul Stadler (Matthew Morrison), arrived at Grey Sloan Memorial along with his fiancée, Jenny (Bethany Joy Lenz). Paul was able to track down Jo and personally went to the hospital to inform her that he is very much willing to sign their divorce papers.
Since the hospital is still under a crisis because of hackers who held the hospital hostage, Paul asked Dr. Webber if he can help since he is also a surgeon, a world-renowned for that matter.
Alex (Justin Chambers) found out about Paul’s presence in the hospital while Paul ended up to the OR run by Meredith (Ellen Pompeo). Paul tried to convince Meredith that Jo is unstable and needs help. Jo heard the conversation and talked to Meredith to refute what Paul said. Meredith believes Jo and sat with her when Jo met with Paul to officially sign the divorce papers.
After signing the papers, Jo realized that she needs to save Jenny from Paul. With Meredith and Arizona’s (Jessica Capshaw) help, Jo was able to talk to Jenny alone and warned her about her fiancé. Jo gave Jenny her phone number and address just in case she wants Jo to help her.
Their conversation, however, backfired. Jenny told Paul exactly what Jo warned her about. Paul was so angry. He called Jo a pathological liar. He told Jo that he will keep her calling card so he knows where to find Jo. Meredith called the security. When the couple is gone, Jo went into a panic but Alex promises her that she is safe with him. Jo said she just wishes Paul were dead.
The following day as Meredith walked into the hospital and saw Jo and Alex staring into a hit-and-run patient at the ER. That victim is Paul. Meredith then asked, “What did you do?” to the couple.
