'Grey's' scoop: 'Heated debates' raging about Owen-Cristina-Teddy triangle

Grey’s Anatomy is doing the time warp again this Thursday with an episode that flashes back to Owen and Teddy’s stint as Army medics in Iraq. The intense hour promises to shed light on the duo’s pre-Seattle Grace relationship as well as the origin of Owen’s post-traumatic stress disorder. The guy at the center of all the drama, Kevin McKidd, took a few minutes out of his day to preview his big ep and reveal why Owen and Cristina’s main obstacle will “never go away.”

《實(shí)習(xí)醫(yī)生格蕾》這部劇看來是玩時光倒退游戲上了癮。本周四播出新的一集又將閃回到Owen和Teddy的伊拉克軍旅生涯（小編注：難道也是向拆彈部隊致敬？）。這一集將集中講述這二人在來西雅圖仁愛醫(yī)院前的曖昧關(guān)系，順便揭開Owen戰(zhàn)爭陰影的瘡疤。Owen將是這一集的絕對中心，所有情節(jié)將圍繞他展開。在此次盛宴上演前，我們請到了出演Owen的凱文·麥克基德進(jìn)行采訪，請他親自說明Owen和Cristina的二人世界怎么會一直烏云密布。

How much do we learn about Teddy and Owen in this episode?
Kevin McKidd: The episode’s more about Owen being triggered by something that’s happening at Seattle Grace, and it brings all these [emotions] back to the point that he feels like he’s almost back there. That’s what brings us to the flashbacks. But it definitely shows the audience what kind of friendship [Owen and Teddy] had and the tough [conditions] they worked in. It also explains one of the reasons why Owen has PTSD. It shows an incident, a very traumatic incident, that happened out in the desert that Owen is still healing from. That’s sort of the journey in the episode.

問：在這一集中我們會知道Teddy和Owen的什么故事？
答：這集主要是說Owen被醫(yī)院里發(fā)生的一些事所觸動想起他身在伊拉克的過去。然后時光倒流，觀眾將看到這兩人之間的“友誼”和當(dāng)時他們在戰(zhàn)地醫(yī)院的艱苦工作。過去的事情將對Owen的戰(zhàn)爭陰影做出一個解釋：Owen當(dāng)時在沙漠中遇到了某個事件，而且慘不忍睹到他現(xiàn)在都不能忘懷。這就是我們新的一集將要講述的。

What is the trigger?
McKidd: It’s a medical thing. It’s a very interesting medical thing.

問：是什么引發(fā)的閃回？
答：當(dāng)然是醫(yī)學(xué)這玩意兒了，是一個非常有意思的醫(yī)學(xué)案例。

What is the fallout, if any, from these flashbacks for Cristina and Owen?
McKidd: I think what’s really interesting is that it sheds more light on Owen and Cristina’s day-to-day life as a couple and what sort of pressures they have to deal with. The churning up of this flashback definitely explains to the audience why they’re so intense as a couple. It shows the pressure that Owen’s living under and also the pressure Cristina has to deal with having a partner who has this pressure cooker inside his mind… You start to see some habits forming that maybe aren’t quite so healthy. And also, one of the main symptoms of PTSD is emotional detachment… not wanting to feel emotions so you numb your emotions and therefore become distant to the people that you’re closest to and in love with.

問：這次閃回的結(jié)果會對大家看好的Cristina和Owen這一對有什么影響嗎？
答：比較有意思的是會影響這一對的日常生活，這兩個人終于要正面二人共同生活帶來的壓力。在閃回中觀眾也會理解為什么這一對會關(guān)系一直很緊張，很少浪漫和溫柔互動。揭示了Owen一直以來隱藏的生活在壓力之下，還有可愛小眼睛Cristina如何處理身旁這個不知道什么時候就爆發(fā)的“炸彈”男友的關(guān)系。你會看到他倆形成一些壞習(xí)慣，但都比不上Owen因戰(zhàn)爭創(chuàng)傷而感情上疏遠(yuǎn)他人，他不愿感受自己的真實(shí)感覺，傷害周圍的人和心中所愛。

Rumor has it Teddy’s going to hook up with Mark. What impact will that have on the Cristina-Owen-Teddy triangle?
McKidd: I don’t know. It is very nebulous at the moment in the writer’s room. I think it’s a very complicated situation. They created this very complicated construct of a triangle that is more complicated than most triangles. All I’ll say is that there have been a lot of heated debates and differences of opinion about where this is headed and what this is going to be. Whatever it’s going to be, it’s going to be very revelatory before long. To me, it feels like the complication hasn’t disappeared.

問：有消息說花心蘿卜Mark將和Teddy送作堆，這會對這段三角戀情有好處嗎？
答：我真的不知道，編劇那邊還在含糊。我認(rèn)為這會是一個非常復(fù)雜的三角戀（看過GG再說吧哥們...）。編劇寫出了這么個超糾結(jié)的三角關(guān)系，至于怎么發(fā)展，故事接下來的走向都有很多熱火朝天的爭論。所以想知道結(jié)果還早得很，對我來說，這事兒就從來沒簡單過。

But is it safe to say Owen and Cristina’s main obstacle will center on his PTSD?
McKidd: I think that definitely will come into play. And I’m really excited about that because I think that’s a very adult problem. I think many people and many wives and loved ones of veterans are dealing with, ”Where am I in this? I know this person has a problem, but what am I getting out of this? Where is my life now? And even when there is love, when there’s a problem like this, is that enough?” That’s a really interesting story, and that’s definitely the same for Cristina and Owen. It’s a thing that’s not going away. Like Dr. Wyatt said in the season premiere, it can get better, it’s a thing that can be handled and managed, but it’s something that never really goes away.

問：那現(xiàn)在是不是就可以說OC戀主要的問題就集中在Owen的心理陰影上了？
答：目前演的就是這樣。我對這段戲很來電，因?yàn)檫@類劇情可不是青少年之間的小打小鬧，分分合合。這是個很成熟的問題，我相信有很多軍人和他們的家人正經(jīng)受著這類問題：“我為什么會在這里？離開之后我又是誰？我為什么回不去過去的生活了？可不可以談一場正常的戀愛？”等等。這些問題讓這個故事更加精彩，這也是Cristina和Owen都會一個個經(jīng)歷的。戰(zhàn)爭經(jīng)歷不會那么輕易忘記，就像劇中那個心理醫(yī)生說的，它會一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)消逝，戰(zhàn)爭留下的創(chuàng)傷會慢慢好轉(zhuǎn)遺忘，但它會一直在心里提醒著你。
