I love you. I do. I love you. I’ve always been in love with you. I will always be in love with you. Which is why you have to stay alive. We can get married, and you’re going to become an amazing surgeon. And we’re going to have 2 or 3 kids. Yeah, a sister and two brothers. We’re going to be happy, Lex. You and me, we’re going to have the best lives, Lexie. You and me. We’re going to be so happy. So you can’t die, okay? You can’t die. Because we’re supposed to end up together. We’re meant to be.

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
“They are still out there.” Yes, Lexie died, and yes, Teddy left, but the episode did end with the rest of the doctors who were on the plane “still out there in the forest.” In fact, Rhimes went on to say, “we don’t know if they are going to be OK. We left it open for a reason because…I hate to…
I hate to say this, but just because you saw people alive at the end of the finale doesn’t mean they’re going to be alive when the season starts up. We are completely jumping off into the unknown next season.”
