A few days ago, it was announced that Eric Dane would be leaving Grey’s Anatomy. Today cast member Patrick Dempsey tweeted a few images that teased at Dane’s fate on the show. Take a look for yourself! Spoiler Alert!!

While tweeting from the set of Grey’s Anatomy Dempsey might have revealed more than he was supposed to! The pictures show Eric Dane, who plays Dr. Mark Sloan, in a hospital bed looking as though he’s unconscious and in pretty rough shape. In one image Dr. Callie Torres, played by Sara Ramirez, is stitching up Sloan’s hand. Dempsey was later asked by ABC to remove the tweets and replaced them with an image of cameras that look as though they are filming the very scene!
