Jackson Confronts the Dad That Abandoned Him on 'Grey's Anatomy'

Dr. Jackson Avery finally confronted his estranged father on Grey's Anatomy. When Jackson traveled to Montana to save a little girl's life, he also decided to stop by and check in on his old man, Robert Avery. Robert, played by Eric Roberts, owns a small diner and bar and was very excited to meet his son. Unfortunately for Robert, Jackson was not in the mood to get to know the man that couldn't find it in his heart to attend one graduation ceremony or birthday. After two brief meetings, Jackson shared some parting words with Robert saying, ""When you have a kid, you're making a promise and I don't break my promises. That's the real difference between you and me."
