Over at TVGuide.com, Natalie Abrams has written a piece titled What We Want to See on 'Grey's Anatomy' Next Season. Obviously, the article is about what she and others at TVGuide.com would like to see take place during season 10 of Grey's Anatomy.

The list revolves around the couples of the show except for Richard who is solo until the very last sentence of their wish list.

Since I'm a Calzona shipper, I had to read what they wanted to see happen with the couple first.

Callie and Arizona (Sara Ramirez and Jessica Capshaw): Sure, we expect the duo to work past Arizona's infidelity eventually, but we'd actually be curious to see Lauren (Hilarie Burton) stick around for a while and try to fight for Arizona. Should Calzona test the waters of being apart, Arizona will eventually come to realize that Callie is, and always has been, her true love. But will she be too late? Since Callie has now been cheated on twice, we'd love to see the normally strong doc falter and go to therapy — just not couples' therapy since that didn't work out for Cristina and Owen.

The first sentence really got to me. They are "curious" to see Lauren stay and fight for Arizona for a bit? Really? In my opinion, while I believe she [Lauren] could show up in season 10 since Hilarie Burton's pilot The List didn't get picked up by Fox, her character served her purpose in the final episodes of season 9. The only reason she would need to appear in one, maybe two episodes of season 10 is for Arizona to tell her once and for all that they are over and she needs to leave.

Abrams then mentions how they'd like to see Callie in therapy. I can agree with this, but I have an issue that there was no mention of Arizona needing therapy because, let's face it, she does. She needs to go to therapy alone first in order to deal with her PTSD and the resentment she has towards Callie and her decision to amputate. After that, both need to get some couple's therapy because while it may not have worked for Cristina and Owen, that doesn't mean it can't work for Callie and Arizona.
