I think Hunt was frightening her. I hope next time Hunt can use his words aswell.

i think that her leaving after the kiss in question has to do with the other kiss.. the first one.. 'cause she got all oh he kissed me and then he acted liked nothing happened.. like he didnt even knew her name.. i think it's because of that..

I think that the kiss was about Cristina realizing there's possibilities there, but that it's going to take some time. Burke was the initiator in his and Cristina's relationship and she was hesitant about it. It seems to be reversed this time. I think Cristina's realizing how much Owen has in common with the way she used to react and realizes he needs time and for them to take it slow. She wasn't judgemental after the kiss, she just walked away cause she knew that moment needed to be left the way it was.

I agree with Salix. In season 1 we met a Cristina that hid behind a wall all the time. Burke was the one to break down that wall and she made herself vulnerable.
I think the walking away thing was mostly due to the fact that Cristina recognizes that detachment in Owen. And she knows how scary it is for someone like that to put themselves out there. So she walked away - in a way, telling him it's okay.
I don't believe there was anything bad behind it. She's into him. And she knows he is into her, but has difficulty connecting - that's what the episode was about. So this whole Owen/Cristina thing is going to move along very slowly is what I think.
It's going to be a process for the both of them. Hunt learning to let go a bit and take risks emotionally, and Cristina learning to trust in love again.

My first time posting here but I wanted to say how much I love love love Owen Hunt! The pairing with Cristina is brilliant and I think its about time she got some action. I wrote in a quesiton about Hunt to TV guide's Matt Roush who has a column called "Ask Matt" to see what he thought about Owen and the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder s/l. I think the last kiss was partly Owen trying so hard to re-connect socially, it was not romantic at first, but then I think you see her reacting to it and it becomes very passionate. I agree that she was kind of letting him know it was all ok, but because of his PSTD he is kind of like how Cristina was after she had the ectopic pregnancy in Season 2. I think also because she's the only one that knows him more intimately than anyone else he doesn't want to lose that. Then again he cares so much about the patients he treats, he is going to have a hard time relating, so I think that it is now going to be Cristina's turn to step up and take care of Owen. They literally fixed each other physically, but mentally each have a long road ahead. Anyway matt's take on my question was pretty cool. Question: I am absolutely fascinated with Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) on Grey's Anatomy. I love the dynamic between Hunt and Yang and also how we are able to see him at two different points in his life in reference to his posttraumatic stress disorder. He was literally the walking dead in last week's episode until Yang snapped him out of it with her own personal story involving her father's death. Hunt's PTSD will be an interesting thing for Yang and the rest of the hospital staff to deal with. Yang and Hunt also seem to jump past certain areas in terms of how they connect with each other, but I hope that it is not a slow-building relationship. When they first met, there was an instant attraction, they made out and they have already "fixed" each other at one point or another physically. Mentally, both are complete chaos. Derek's comparison of Yang to single malt scotch was a cool analogy, considering that single malt scotch is the snowflake of whisky, Did anyone notice in Hunt's "cameo" the week before, he orders whiskey at Joe's but changes his mind. Foreshadowing? There are some things about Yang that Meredith will never understand, and I think Yang is the only one who can help Hunt come to grips with his PTSD. I also think that Hunt will help Yang get over the debacle that was Burke, but he will force her to be more personal than she has been even with Meredith in order to get through to him. I have high hopes for this character, in spite of all the irregular writing that has plagued others like Izzie and Callie. It is also great to see Kevin McKidd back on television. I thought Journeyman was prematurely cancelled and loved him in Rome. At the same time, I hope the Grey's writers will explore Hunt's PTSD responsibly and not glamorize it for the sake of ratings. — MayaMatt Roush: I agree that Hunt/McKidd is the most encouraging thing to happen to Grey's Anatomy in quite a while. I'm not sure I want the show to explore so fully the PTSD angle that it would be at the expense of the more combative and charismatic sides of his personality, but the instant sparks between him and Yang were electrifying — and I really enjoyed the scene where he humbled himself before Derek and Sloan to say he needed their guidance to operate on a different sort of battlefield. And who wouldn't love someone who has no use for all the hanky-panky going on in this oversexed hospital? Finally, a grown-up! More, more, more of this guy. And by the way, single malt scotch "the snowflake of whisky?" Niiiice.
