After the end of season 18, there are a number of plot lines that should be picked up in season 19.

Afterwards, Meredith decided to stay in Seattle and replace Bailey as Chief of Surgery, jeopardizing her romance with Dr. Nick Marsh when he talked to him about moving back to Minnesota without her. Meredith went after Nick but found that he was already gone. Are they really over?
On the other hand, Dr. Amelia Shepherd made amends with former Dr. Atticus “Link” Lincoln before reconciling with her new lover Dr. Kai Bartley, just as Dr. Jo Wilson repaired her friendship with Link.
