Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) will reunite with his ex-wife, April Kepner (Sarah Drew) in the upcoming Grey's Anatomy season 17 episode 14. Yet, there are still a lot of questions regarding their reunion, particularly how and why it happened.
Grey's Anatomy season 17 episode 14 will mostly revolve around Jackson's storyline. He is heading to Seattle to visit his father, Robert Avery (Eric Roberts), who helped him set his path in the right direction. Then, this meeting could lead him to visit another person in his past, his ex-wife.
The biggest question here is what drives them both, particularly Jackson, to meet again. Perhaps, this may have something to do with him reflecting on his past now that he's fighting for a larger purpose in his life. Yet, the promo teased that there could be complications coming in their way.
Jackson can be seen driving to April's house despite the heavy rain. When he arrived at her doorstep, he looks nervous and talking to himself, possibly the message he wants to tell his ex-wife. The two come face-to-face when the door opened, and the scene shifted to flashbacks when they were still together.
Grey's Anatomy season 17 episode 14 will likely provide answers on why Jackson decided to meet up with April. It's yet to be seen whether he wants to rekindle their romance before. If he does, the situation might be more complicated since she's now married to Matthew Taylor (Justin Bruening).
In addition, Jackson enters a friends-with-benefits relationship with Jo Wilson (Camilla Luddington). But, there is also a possibility that April's role is tied to him visiting his father in Seattle. It can be recalled that she played a role before when he met up with Robert.
Jackson may want April to be there for him again while he revisits a part of his past. The latter was last seen in the season 14 finale, so fans were looking forward to the reunion of the two. More stories will likely unfold as the medical drama Williams' character's journey.
As for what else viewers can anticipate in Grey's Anatomy season 17 episode 14, Meredith Grey's (Ellen Pompeo) condition will be further addressed. At the moment, her current health status remains in question. Although it has been hinted she's getting better, it's still unknown whether she'll wake up anytime soon.
Grey's Anatomy season 17 episode 14 is titled "Look Up Child," and it will be airing on Thursday, May 6, on CBS.
