In Station 19 Season 6, Episode 17, fans of Maya and Carina—affectionately known as “Marina”—were treated to a heartwarming moment that had many viewers buzzing with excitement. After a season of emotional ups and downs, the couple is back on track, rekindling their relationship and falling in love all over again. But amidst all the romance, there was one small but significant detail that did not go unnoticed by the eagle-eyed fans: Carina putting her wedding ring back on.
One fan shared a clip on Twitter, pointing out a subtle yet meaningful moment where Carina is seen in the changing room, possibly putting her ring back on. The tweet read: “Someone else pointed it out, but IS THIS CARINA PUTTING ON HER RING??!! Sneaky sneaky sneaky!!! But PERFECT MOMENT!!” Fans quickly started sharing their thoughts, with one person admitting they watched the scene “20+ times” before realizing Carina had indeed placed her ring back on her finger. Another fan chimed in with a simple, “I actually did notice this too. She definitely did put her ring on.” For many, this small gesture was a perfect representation of their journey back to each other.
One fan summed it up perfectly, tweeting: “I know it’s not a big scene but it’s perfect! We have it back!” And we couldn’t agree more. While the scene itself was brief, the significance of Carina’s decision to wear her ring again felt like a beautiful confirmation of the couple’s return to each other after everything they’ve been through this season.
A Sweet Return for Marina
The episode also delivered a romantic moment that had fans swooning—Maya carrying Carina across the threshold as they returned home together, followed by a passionate kiss. It’s moments like these that have Station 19 fans falling in love with Marina all over again. This return to tenderness comes after a rocky road for the couple, with Carina having to relearn how to trust Maya and both women navigating the complexities of dating and loving one another again.
Danielle Savre, who plays Maya, recently spoke about their journey this season in an interview with Shondaland. She said, “Maya and Carina are rekindled and falling in love again, and learning how to date and learning to trust each other, specifically Carina learning to trust Maya again.” She added, “That’s not going to be something that’s easy to do. So, I’m glad that the show took their time to play out that storyline. I think it’s going to make everyone very happy.”
Indeed, the show has allowed their reconciliation to unfold gradually, and the slow-burn nature of their relationship makes these moments feel even more earned.
Looking Ahead to Season 7
Fans are already looking forward to what’s next for Maya and Carina, especially since Station 19 has been renewed for a seventh season. With a new showrunner, Zoanne Black, stepping in alongside director Peter Paige, there’s a lot of anticipation for the direction the series will take. Black recently expressed her excitement about joining the Station 19 team, saying, “I feel incredibly honored to be entrusted with this dynamic and relevant show alongside Peter.” It seems like the future of Marina—and the entire series—is in good hands.
We can’t wait to see what’s next for Maya and Carina, but for now, we’ll cherish this sweet moment of Carina putting her ring back on as a symbol of their fresh start.
