TVLine reported Wednesday about the role Jerrika Hinton's character Dr. Stephanie Edwards will play in this procedure.

Hinton revealed Stephanie is "nervous as hell" to be part of such a groundbreaking procedure.

"She's nervous but still capable, and inspired," the actress said, adding, "As much a supporting force as Stephanie is for Amelia, Amelia turns out to be that for Stephanie. She's really inspirational."

These doctors recently hit a bit of a bump in their professional relationship after the surgery of a man who had a tumor removed restored his eyesight since Amelia tore Stephanie for hedging on the surgery.

"That definitely cooled things, in terms of Stephanie's excitement about getting to work with this phenomenally smart woman," Hinton revealed.

"But one of the key things in that lesson, in a way, was looking at the greater good, how many people this is going to benefit. Just because you get chewed out once doesn't mean you get to flounce off to your room and slam the door," Hinton said, adding, "You've still got work to do, so you need to throw on your big-girl panties!"

Grey's Anatomy airs on Thursday nights at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
