The next episode of "Grey's Anatomy," will go back to 2007 to see how Dr. Megan Hunt (Abigail Spencer) was separated from Dr. Nathan Riggs (Martin Henderson) and what transpired after that.

The trailer for the upcoming installment titled "Danger Zone" was released recently and showed Hunt and Riggs in Iraq 10 years ago and serving in the medical unit. Riggs apparently fell in love with Hunt and went down on one knee. However, it is unclear whether he proposed to her in the camp or if it was just a farce. Nevertheless, they spent a lot of time together in war-torn Iraq where they saved many wounded soldiers. One day, however, some medical personnel are called to volunteer and ride with the helicopter to a nearby town where many are wounded. There is only one space left so Hunt insists that she be the one to board the chopper.

Riggs concedes and lets Hunt join the mission instead of him. This was apparently the last time Riggs saw Hunt and she was never heard of again until this year. Viewers will get to see the real story as to what transpired after her disappearance to see whether she was kidnapped or not.

In the last episode, Dr. Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) was able to successfully remove the tumor from Dr. Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone) head. It did not come without any tension as some of the doctors were nervous about the outcome. Nevertheless, Shepherd's operation was a success as she was moved to her room to recover.

Strangely, she was now able to speak French after her operation. After she recovered fully, she went back home with her old flame, Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd).

"Grey's Anatomy" season 14 episode 5 will air in two weeks on Thursday, Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC.
