I would have given this a single star, but the plot was a good one. What could have been a really emotional episode was completely destroyed by way too much singing. After the tragic event that occurs at the start of the episode, there was not much more than five minutes of dialog (or so it seemed) in the rest of the episode. It's not that I don't like musicals, my wife and I love musicals. We loved The Sound of Music, Oklahoma, South Pacific, Grease and so many more! Perhaps if they had chosen a different episode that was less dramatic and more upbeat and sang a little less the format would have worked. My complaint isn't about how well they sang, but about the fact there was so little dialog in a story that really needed it! Whenever another song would break out, my wife and I would look at each other and say, "Not again!" As one other reviewer put it (and I agree with their assessment) this episode even fell below the one where they had the TV crew doing interviews with them.
This episode was not a TV drama, it was a music video! The producers would have done much better to write a music video and release it separately on DVD if they were trying to showcase Sara Ramirez's voice.
