Last month, Rhimes told Entertainment Weekly that Knight’s character, George, was intentionally written lighter during the last half of the season so that viewers wouldn’t think it odd that he was absent from the season finale — something that was necessary to preserve the episode’s biggest twist: that George was actually a disfigured John Doe who had been hit by a bus.

Knight’s departure from the series now seems to confirm that George won’t survive.
