‘Grey’s Anatomy’ season 13’s episode 18, titled “Be Still My Soul,” will follow Maggie and her mother Diane as they struggle through the latter’s failing health. Meanwhile, Richard will come to terms with Bailey’s betrayal. Perhaps it is possible that he may finally forgive Bailey.
The synopsis for “Be Still My Soul” posted on TV Guide reads, “Maggie's (Kelly McCreary) mom's health deteriorates, and the doctors are at odds over how to treat her. Meanwhile, Richard (James Pickens Jr.) comes to grips with Bailey's (Chandra Wilson) betrayal over the Residency Program.”
The upcoming episode will put focus on Maggie and her mother, Diane Pierce (LaTanya Richardson Jackson) as they struggle through her condition. Maggie’s colleagues will also find themselves divided over how to treat her.
In the previous episode, titled “'Til I Hear It From You,” Diane returned to Seattle for a mastectomy to be performed by Jackson (Jesse Williams) after receiving chemotherapy at home. It seems that Maggie was left in the dark about her mother’s true health condition – that she has breast cancer. Diane’s surgery became complicated leaving Maggie devastated.
During an interview with E! News, McCreary hinted at what to expected from Maggie in the upcoming episodes. The 33-year old actress said, "I think, first and foremost, Maggie is the brightest person she knows… And she's going to try to solve her problems herself. And of course, when you try to do everything yourself, you get tuckered out."
Meanwhile, Richard is set to come to terms with Bailey’s betrayal after the latter attempted to mend their broken friendship. It would be interesting to see if Richard can finally forgive Bailey for going behind his back and taking his Residency Program away in favor of Eliza (Marika Dominczyk).
‘Grey’s Anatomy’ season 13’s episode 18, titled “Be Still My Soul,” is scheduled to air on March 20, 2017 on ABC. It was directed by Ellen Pompeo and written by Meg Marinis.
