'Grey's Anatomy' mystery: Who is Alex's mistress?

Tags:

Oh, Alex Karev. If your wife wasn’t such a pain this season, I’d be really angry that (according to an interview Justin Chambers recently did with TV Guide.com) you have a one-night stand in the first post-hiatus episode of Grey’s Anatomy, which also happens to be the first part of the show’s crossover with Private Practice. But who does Alex get busy with in the Jan. 14 episode? Beats me. My crystal ball is buried beneath an avalanche of unopened mail. Enter new Ausiello Files contributor/Grey’s addict Sandra Gonzalez, who narrowed down the possible suspects to the following six women. Warning: The odds presented below are non-scientific, so don’t take ‘em to Vegas. Foxwoods maybe, but not Vegas.

Reed (odds: 1-5): It makes sense that Karev would choose to work through his pain with the brash Mercy West-er, who has been undressing Alex with her eyes for weeks. But if Chambers’ claim (that the other woman’s identity will cause our heads to spin) proves true, it won’t be Reed. And if it is, Chambers hasn’t been watching his show very closely this season.

Lexie (odds: 1-2): They had a brief tryst in the past, so it stands to reason that Alex might once again play doctor with ‘lil Grey. And from Lexie’s perspective, what better distraction from all the McDaughter drama than another roll in the hay with a former Calvin Klein model?

Addison (odds: 3-1): It also wouldn’t be the first time Karev visited Le Bed Montgomery, but — as previously reported — Addison will have her hands full helping out Mark. And girlfriend has only so many hands.

Cristina (odds: 9-2): Should Hunt get busy with ex-love Teddy, Cristina might be out for a little revenge of her own. But why would she pick Alex when she’s already got another MD (i.e. Dr. Avery) ready, more than willing, and (we’re just assuming here) extremely able?

Meredith (odds: 7:1): Shonda Rhimes has said that Der-Mer’s upcoming troubles would be work-related, not personal. And we’re going to take her at her word.

Miranda (odds 15-1): Grey’s writers have been anything but subtle about Miranda’s rocky personal life. And Chambers did say the choice would shock people. Well, this would shock me!

Who do you think Karev will share a supply closet with when Grey’s returns? Sound off below!

    really hope it Addison her and Alex where awesome together

    • Julie

      That would be HOT!

    • Kelly

      I miss Addison and Alex. They have great chemistry and had such a nice build up until they decided to send her to LA.

      • Heidi

        I can’t believe no one is thinking about Kim Raver?

      • Belle

        I said it once and will say it again. I miss Addison!She brought a certain something something to that show. An intelligent woman who did not whine. I wish Addison would come back to GA and bring Sam with her.

    • Anna

      They were awesome together but that’s not going to happen. There is more chance of Addie/Mark if anything.

      But I don’t think Addie will be hooking up with any SGH folk.

      They’re teasing the Addie/Sam relationship on PP. Kate Walsh + Taye Diggs = HOTNESS !!

  • bob

    you’re leaving out the more likely and obvious choices: teddy and mcsteamy’s daughter.

    • Jenn

      Oooooh, McSteamy’s daughter is a good one.

    • Julie

      I doubt Alex is going to hook up with an 18 year old pregnant girl. She’s not even old enough to be at Joe’s bar!

      • stella

        theyre not likely

  • justin

    THANKS FOR SPOILING A SHOW I WATCH! can you not put freaking spoilers in the headlines!!! I love this site but that crap is getting really old. Why not say “grey’s spoiler” or something and then if I want my show ruined I can click it.

    • AliGirl

      “The Ausiello Files: Exclusive TV News and Scoop.”
      Spoilers are implied in the column’s title. Don’t visit if you don’t want your shows “ruined.”

      • Michelle

        I actually have to agree with Justin. Yes the spoilers are implied, but they have the spoiler on their home page…They should put something like “Alex and Izzy doomed?” or “Ausiello has Grey’s spoiler on Alex” so those who don’t want to know don’t have to click on it.

    • ggny

      why do you visit the site then if you dont want to be spoiled?

      • Angela

        Amen. If you don’t want to know you don’t visit sites like this. Its the same reason I don’t look in certain folders in my feed reader the day after a show I haven’t watched yet. (When the previous night’s ep is usually discussed in detail)

    • LAUREN

      ew hasn’t revealed anything more than a preview for an upcoming week would reveal. Chill out, if knowing something “big” is going to happen ruins the show for you, then maybe you are a little too devoted.

    • sdm

      This is not a spoiler this is a plot twist. A spoiler would be telling us who he is going to hook up with. Poor baby, do you want a little cheese with your wine…

      • justin

        it’s not a spoiler to know that alex is going to cheat on izzie? really?

    • angie

      Ausiello is the King of all that is Spoilery. This column is pretty much enter at your own risk.

  • Pulpo

    Maybe a Rebecca (Jane Doe) comeback?

    • Juniper

      I doubt it… she was pretty far gone the last time they saw each other. I don’t think she’ll be back. I’m also betting it’s not Bailey or Lexie. It better not be Lexie…

    • Michelle

      Alex has been feeling low, but not low enough to sleep with his previously suicidal ex.

    • lisa

      Rebecca is busy with the Twilight saga’s so it’s probably Bailey

      • stephanie

        hahaha

      • sdm

        She was in one scene in New Moon, she can’t be that busy.

  • J.G.

    If they really wanted to make our heads spin, they would make it Callie.

    • Zach

      Or Arizona.

      • Nikkido

        Or both.

      • dlferriola

        I agree it is either Teddy or Arizona – which is a long shot since she is a lesbian.

  • Julie

    There’s another possibility: Teddy.

    • pop

      thats who i think. i think it was pretty obvious.

  • Whatever

    Another PPGA crossover ? I don’t watch Private Practice, those crossovers are just annoying when you don’t know the characters backstories !

  • Booger

    Izzy’s mom. Get that GILF!

  • Tom in STL

    Who says Karev has to sleep with a female? The biggest shock would be Dr. Avery ends up being bi and sleeps with Karev!

    • denise

      Interesting. It would definitely be out of character for Alex because he’s a red blooded man, but Avery on the other hand….. (I’ll refrain from any further comment, especially about his apparent lisp).

  • linda

    Ask me if care who Alex sleeps with.

    • Kevin

      Good for you, Linda. I bet you have bigger things on your mind like global warning and the recession, right?

      • shelby

        Mwahaha! Don’t forget the orphans, Brad!

      • heej

        You go, girl!

      • selma

        haha ok that was kind of mean… but so good

    • meridianjackson

      you care enough to comment on it…

      • rocket scientist

        And…?

  • cait

    If it’s occurring on the Grey’s/Private Practice crossover, my bets are all on Addison. They almost got together in Grey’s season 3, but he went for Rebecca/Ava instead. Perhaps they’ll rekindle their almost-flame when they reunite!

  • Dr.Andry

    In My Opinion?
    REED! But She’s not So Awesome like Izzie. :(

    • cas

      Personally, I like Reed. And I’m NOT an Izzie fan, so I’m all for a Reed/Alex hookup.

  • mel

    “It also wouldn’t be the first time Karev visited Le Bed Montgomery” – is that true? I thought they came close but never did. this might be the ep where they correct that…

    • Ana

      In “Desire” (season 3), they had sex in the closet, which Mark found out.

      • Rhonda

        It wasn’t a closet-it was an on-call room.

  • Dominique

    This SUCKS! I really feel like Shonda’s losing her groove this season. She writes Izzie as a total selfish bitch, she has written obstacles for pretty much every couples (except Calizona) before 8 episodes had aired and now THIS. All the built up given to Alex in the past seasons results in THIS? Stupid, stupid, stupid!! (Yeah I’m frustrated, I’ve waited over 3 1/2 years to get my Lexzie and then this is what happens.)

  • Sarah

    I would love a short reunion between Alex and Addison. Gosh, they were HOT!!!!!
    And like the only thing that made me watching season three ’til the end.
    Reed would be boring – Miranda would be really shocking!!! Don’t see Meredith, Cristina or Lexie anywhere near Alex.
