'Grey's Anatomy' season 16: Miranda Bailey sacks Dahlia Qadri and now fans want her and Meredith Grey back
After the third episode of 'Grey's Anatomy,' season 16 aired, fans can't stop talking about how Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson) laid down the laws and fired another employee! Yes, you heard that right. If the loss of Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), Alex Karev (Justin Chambers) and Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.) from the Grey Sloan Hospital wasn't enough, there's another kick out — and it's intern Dahli Qadri (Sophia Taylor Ali).
If you wondering why she was fired from the hospital, it's because she expressed her dismay over Meredith's absence from the hospital even though she was the star surgeon. When an old patient comes back for treatment from her vacation, she is shocked to know Meredith is fired and is unwilling to let the surgery without her presence. Finally, Bailey agrees to let her be there on video call but disconnects the call immediately after the surgery is over.

When Bailey spots Qadri shedding tears over the fact that Meredith is no longer there, she tells her, "There are places for that and this is not one." But Qadri is not ready to let it go. "Guess how many residents came here for Meredith? We didn't come for anyone else but Meredith. And I came here to watch Meredith on a TV screen?" Not one to entertain any more bickering, Bailey straightaway tells her, "Work somewhere else. You're fired, Doctor Qadri. Now you and Meredith do have something in common."
The fiasco has left fans shocked and they are divided over the consequences. "So how long until all the attendings and residents quit because of Bailey, Kurasick and Katherine Avery? Everybody will be working for Alex soon? #GreysAnatomy," one tweet read and another said, "The longer I continue to rewatch Grey’s Anatomy the more and more I realize how much I absolutely dislike Bailey!!!" "I think I kind of hate Dr. Bailey on Grey’s Anatomy," one user posted.
Qadri's brave stand, however, won many hearts. "I LOVE Qadri. She stands up for Meredith like none other!!!!! She’s been amazing this episode...And Bailey fires her?!?!? #GreysAnatomy," one fan wrote, and another tweeted, "I want Meredith and Qadri back. #GreysAnatomy #fireBailey!"
One fan said, "Will Meredith Grey ever be back in blue scrubs? @EllenPompeo. I miss seeing Meredith in the OR saving lives. I’m sick of watching Meredith do community service #GreysAnatomy." Another added, "Also, I’m ready for Richard and Karev to come back to Grey Sloan now #GreysAnatomy."
Some viewers supported Bailey's decision. "I’m here for Bailey’s wrath....kind of. Like I understand firing Meredith, but she should have gone about a better way of informing people and giving them options. But honestly, I would have fired Qadri too if she went on like a blubbering brat smh #GreysAnatomy," one tweet read.
As the fourth episode of 'Grey's Anatomy' rolls out on Thursday, October 17 on ABC, it is yet to be seen whether Miranda Bailey has a change of heart and lets Meredith Grey return to the hospital.
