Here are the spoilers thus far for Episode 6.06!

• When a burn victim unexpectedly dies in the E.R., all the Mercy West and Seattle Grace residents must defend their actions in hopes of saving their jobs.

• Casting calls are for the following characters:
  • Cathy Singer: Female, Caucasian, mid 30’s, Patient in the hospital,
  • Danny: Boy or Girl, Caucasian, 6 y.o to play 5 y.o, adorable and vulnerable.
  • Evan Lang: Male, Asian or Latino, 18 to play 16 y.o., a thin music geek.
  • Roy Macinaw: Male, all ethnicities, mid to late 50’s, a big guy, working class, everyone loves him.
  • Fire Captain: Male, all ethnicities, 40’s, working class.

This season of Grey’s Anatomy is overwhelmingly defined by the merger of Seattle Grace and crosstown rival Mercy West. So what will this mean for some of our favorite characters?

Well, Dr. Izzie Stevens is getting fired. Izzie gets laid off in the big merger and vanishes for a handful of episodes while Katherine Heigl shoots her next movie, Life as We Know It. The shake-up also gives a good cover for Ellen Pompeo’s maternity leave. She’ll fade into the background while new doctors, administrators and nurses fill in the gaps. Producers are, however, working to keep Meredith Grey in as many eps as possible.
