Warning: Spoilers
A lot of spoilers! Sorry...

I don't usually watch Greys Anatomy, but i know roughly whats going on. The other night, episode 27 season 2 came on, and i watched it. The plot line was easy to follow, so i didn't feel lost. Things were funny, dramatic and intense. The whole thing with the prom being held for the Chief's niece, is funny and sweet, though sad for its reasons. I was so happy when Izzie excepted Denny's proposal (yes, i'm that sad) and she went away to get ready for the prom. I thought that the whole thing between Derek and Meredith, and their dog dying, was very good symbolism - the dog dying shows their whole sneaky 'relationship' dying also. Now, they have to make the decision whether to stop or continue. So, when they start getting it on in an empty doctors room, you wonder what they are doing. Next thing you know, the scene changes to Denny reading a book. He looks startled and in pain, and suddenly, he is flat line - his body rejects the heart. It was stunned, and felt physically winded - hands up to my mouth in shock and everything. But what is so sad, is when the scene slides onto Izzie coming up in the elevator, ready to find her soon-to-be husband, oblivious to the sudden tragedy. When Callie goes into find Meredith and Derek, and finds them panting, hair all messed up, eyes wide, and Meredith's dress undone, she says nothing, but the look she sends Derek is priceless while she does up Meredith's dress. Callie tells them something is up with Denny, and they go to him. Asking where Izzie is, they find out she is in there with him. You go in to see the heartbreaking scene of an emotionally shocked Izzie lying beside Denny - i felt tears prick at my eyes - I know, boohoo and all that, but it was sad! Then, there is the memorable, and tear jerking quote from Izzie - 'An hour ago he was proposing, and now he is going to the Morgue. Isn't that the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard?' By now, the tears were flowing, and the Chasing Cars song playing in the background (that song goes with any scenario doesn't it?) doesn't help. Alex says how it isn't Denny anymore, and carries her away, her sobbing into his shirt. Next thing is the Chief asking Derek and Finn if they have seen Izzie and that lot. That is when they walk down, Izzie - red eyes and mascara smudged - leading the dismal group. She confesses that it was her, and her alone who cut the wire, using the line 'I thought i was a surgeon, but I'm not. So i quit.' and she walks out, followed by upset and startled Alex and and George following after her down the stairs. The end scene is Meredith having to make a decision between Finn and Derek - the vet finally confronts her, with all the lovey-dovey, smouldering looks between Dr McDreamy and herself.

I apologise for all the spoilers, but yeah... i personally loved that episode, and was heartbroken (Denny and Izzie were a great couple) and just wanted to tell everyone. I know, sad. But that's how i am. :)
