It was when Meredith mentioned Maggie and Amelia Lexi's expression changed. The ease of the relationship between Maggie, Amelia and Meredith. While Meredith loved Lexi she struggled with the whole 'sister' thing and 'family' Lexi's expression became more wistful. This could have been her life too, had she more time. Lexi was the original sister yet, she's rarely mentioned anymore.

[@jwanie366]

I was very surprised to see Chyler Leigh return to Grey's this season, as she's been busy filming the final season of Supergirl in Vancouver. But as I suspected, her return was done via green screen. Since Vancouver has a strict quarantine process, it would've been extremely difficult to have her physically be on the same set with Ellen Pompeo and then go back to Vancouver. Eric Dane on the other hand, did film his scenes with Ellen on the same set
