"Grey's": Welcome Back, Isaiah! Goodbye Sandra!
Seven years after he was fired, Isaiah Washington is returning to ``Grey's Anatomy.''
But it won't be a long run.
ABC says he will be back in May as the season ends. The end the season will also bring the departure of Sandra Oh. Her character was engaged to Washington's character at one point in the hospital drama. Washington left the series in 2007 after a controversy over his use of an anti-gay slur against fellow actor T.R. Knight.

Washington repeated the slur at the 2007 Golden Globe awards. Despite apologizing and meeting with gay-rights groups, he was cut loose from the show.
