A viewer asked whether or not Callie and Arizona are going to make it on the show, as they don’t seem as “intimate” as Callie did with Erica. Sara Ramirez herself answered the question, assuring any troubled fans that Calzona have certainly gotten busy in the bedroom, even if we’ve not had a front row seat to all the hot action.

Alas, she also reveals that the couple is headed toward troubled waters: “They will deal with some very universal relationship-type issues. I’m kind of nervous for Callie — she’s never been this happy for so long. Something’s going to happen.”

DOOM.

Well, it’s Grey’s Anatomy so all couples are continuously headed toward troubled waters. Let’s just hope they make it through in one piece at the other end of things. I’m kind of nervous for everyone.

Matt Mitovich has let out a few more hints about what happens as a result of Daddy Torres’ visit. According to his sources, “the resulting scenes serve up quite a showcase for the acting chops of both Sara Ramirez and Jessica Capshaw.”

And as a bonus: We get to find out how Arizona got her name. Hint: It has nothing to do with the state.

Looking forward to it!

Speaking of the performance, it sounds like she did an outstanding job, though the actress herself seems mostly relieved that she got through it without messing up! “My 10-year-old daughter [Joy] said, ‘Mom just don’t mess up,’ ” said the three-time Emmy nominee. “That was the advice she gave me and so that’s what I took with me on stage and it seemed to have worked.”

And what did her Grey’s co-stars think?

“She was absolutely amazing,” Pickens told PEOPLE. “She was perfect and should be very proud of her performance. I had a great time watching her.”

I’m sure she’s going to be awesome during the entire run. For those wondering, you can catch Chandra Wilson in Chicago for a four-week stretch only. Her last performance will be Sunday, July 5. So if you haven’t gotten tickets yet, run run run!

Here’s the lowdown of what she’s asked:

• Is Callie ever going to sing on the show?
• What lies ahead for Callie and Arizona?
• How do you think Callie’s parents will react to her dating a woman?
• Will the friendship between Callie and Mark ever become more?
• What is it like filming love scenes in front of the entire crew?
• How do you prepare for your more emotional scenes?

I love Sara Ramirez so much! And it’s a huge treat to see her answering questions about Callie and the show.

For those who can’t see the video, here’s a few highlights:

• Some scenes of Callie singing have been shot, but have all been cut for various reasons. But there’s always talk of shooting more. Maybe one will stick!
• The writers are taking Callie and Arizona one episode at a time, so she doesn’t know what lies ahead. But she hopes for all the best for them.
• She doesn’t know if Callie and Mark will ever become more, but she loves them together so perhaps in the future. That said, she loves the idea that a man and woman can be such good friends and such equals.
• Filming love scenes in front of the crew can often be “comical.”

Ramirez’s reaction?

“[It] made me sad. But in my family, my aunts are Catholic, and they watch it and are so supportive! I’m not one to tell people what to think, but I would like to encourage people to open their hearts because it’s 2009, and we’ve elected an African-American President. Come on guys, let’s get over it.”

I love her attitude and her message. After all, she’s been a face and a voice for GLAAD for the past couple of years now.

I know a lot of you haven’t been into this storyline and wish Callie would return to heteroland. But I don’t think hate mail is the answer.

Ramirez attended the school from fourth grade to senior year.

Of the donation, she stated that the school “played a huge role in where and who I am today so I would like to take this time to give a little something back.”

I’m sure the school will have no trouble finding ways to put the money to good use. Its current plans are to divide the cash between the different art departments.

It’s always great to see actors giving back to the community, particularly in areas as important as education.

Ausiello posted a clip from the upcoming episode “Before and After” featuring two of my favorite characters: Callie and Addison.

Those of you interested knowing what’s going on with Callie/Arizona relationship will probably want to watch this!

[The clip can be watched here]

(**Warning Spoilers**)

In the clip, Addison laments the fact that she doesn’t have a relationship with God and that she could really use one right about now (to save her brother). Callie listens and then starts her own prayer, asking God to help her get over the fact that Arizona is a Ped surgeon and has butterflies in her scrub cap and instead focus on what’s really important: that’s she’s hot.

But then she tells Addison something that might help her feel better: “You’re an amazing surgeon. You save babies. God knows who you are.”

I love watching Addison and Callie together, and the way that the scene mixes humor and seriousness.

Only a couple of days left before the big event! Who else is counting the hours?

Her rep told TV Guide that they’ve heard nothing about it. I certainly don’t want Callie to leave Grey’s Anatomy as much as I’d love to see Sara Ramirez in a starring role somewhere.

I mentioned the other day that Callie’s character was likely to hook up with Jessica Capshaw’s – who’ll be guest starring as Dr. Arizona Robbins starting on Jan. 8. I thought she was only signed for a three episode guest spot, but I was wrong; it’s more than that!

And the “hook up” won’t happen until her third appearance. It’s unclear whether or not it’s going to lead anywhere. Considering Jessica Capshaw is only a guest star and not a series regular I sort of doubt it will. Unless, of course, they decide to keep her on board (I’ve not heard anything to indicate that they will).

By now we should’ve all heard that Brooke Smith got fired from Grey’s Anatomy abruptly and without much explanation. Shonda Rhimes has tried to smooth things over, ABC has tried to get its actors to smooth things over, but it’s pretty obvious there’s something rotten going on here.

Still, if you’re wondering how things end up for Callie and Erica come tomorrow’s episode, Michael Ausiello has a few more details about what’s to come.

*spoilers ahead*

According to one of his sources, Callica argue over Izzie and the whole heart-stealing mess and its lack of severity and the fight is so severe that apparently Callie “realizes she doesn’t like girls as much as Erica does.” (???!!!) And then Erica drives off and never comes back.

Wow. Just wow.

In positive news (or negative, depending on your P.O.V.) Ausiello beats down that ugly rumor that Sara Ramirez will be departing the show. She “isn’t going anywhere.”

I’ve just spoken with a contact at AfterEllen.com and she is confirming that Brooke Smith is not the only one being let go. Apparently Sara Ramirez will be exiting at roughly episode 15 or 16 and they’re jockeying for an interview with her. According to what I’ve been told, Melissa George has been brought in for Mark’s character because the ABC brass wanted a ‘name’ actor for him and liked Melissa from her stint on Alias. The head honchos are the ones who lured Melissa George into the show and asked Rhimes to create a backstory for her that would connect her with Meredith (or another established character) to ‘ground her’ with roots from the beginning.

Again, this is just a rumor and there’s no confirmation of this anywhere. Though a friend of a friend who’s friend knows another friend saw a MySpace post in which someone said that Sara might be heading off to Broadway. Saw this in the comments at Ask Ausiello.

Definitely something to be taken with a grain of salt. But still something to keep an eye on. If they get rid of Sara Ramirez my brain will explode.

From the sounds of Shonda Rhimes’ statement, though, it doesn’t sound like there’s plans for Callie to go anywhere. Then again, as we’ve learned today, that obviously doesn’t say much.
