I think that was the best "After the final rose" episode yet! I am really glad that Matthew confronted Meredith and basically asked her why she said what she said and ended up picking Ian. I know the show is over and she won't change her mind, but he needed to know why to probably get some closure. What she said was pretty strong, and you probably are better off not saying that unless you were going to pick him!
I think she felt very uncomfortable and emotional because it seemed like she was about to cry on more than one occassion. I do not think Meredith is a bad person, and is really sorry about hurting Matthew- but I am also glad she was faced with that question- although I do not think she gave him a clear anwser.
Okay well maybe Jesse Palmer is attractive, I do not know what picture I was looking at earlier! He does seem to have big ears though, oh well none of us are perfect either!
