Big "Japril" Episode Just Might Be an Avery Family Reunion in Disguise by Billy Nilles | Wed, Mar 15, 2017 9:05 AM For as long as he's been in our lives on Grey's Anatomy, Jackson Avery's father has never been in the picture. We've gotten more than our fill of his mother, the domineering and ultra-successful Catherine Avery (Debbie Allen)—especially with the mess she's created at Grey Sloan Memorial this year with the whole Minnick debacle—but we've never met the man who ran off when Jackson (Jesse Williams) was young, leaving him to be raised by a single mother. But it looks like that all might be changing—and soon. In this sneak peek of Thursday's new episode, exclusive to E! News, Jackson and April (Sarah Drew) have traveled to Montana to treat a young patient, but when his ex-wife catches wise to what really may have brought them out to Big Sky Country, she's none too pleased. "When are you gonna tell me that you found your father?" she unloads on her former spouse. "Your father, Jackson. Your long-lost deadbeat dad. The distinguished hippie former surgeon Dr. Avery who slings hash at the local diner. He's the whole reason we're here!" "No, I came here to help a patient," Jackson replies, rather unconvincingly. Come on, Jackson! You're going to have to lie a little better than that. The special episode, in which Williams and Drew are the only two series regulars to appear, is a sequel of sorts to the special season 12 episode that chronicled the pair's complete relationship history as they sign divorce papers amid April's secret second pregnancy. Could what fans are affectionately referring to as "Japril: The Sequel" be the episode to bring these until as-of-late (thanks to Grey Sloan Memorial's ridiculous civil war) happy co-parents back together for good? While the pair aren't spilling that precious detail under fear of retribution from their boss Shonda Rhimes, they did open up to E! News' Kristin Dos Santos about the episode. "The relationship—Will they? Won't they? Are they going to stay together? They're co-parenting, being divorced, but living together. They can kind of escape through their work, but on this trip and in this episode, they're together," Williams teased during the recent TCA Winter Press Tour . "They have to face each other." Are the actors themselves rooting for a reconciliation between their characters? "Yes, always. I'm just always rooting for them to get back together because they're great and I can't understand," Drew admitted. "There was stuff that made sense for them to be apart, but now it feels like that's in the past…Japril forever!" Are you still holding out hope for Japril to get their act together and reconcile? Sound off in the comments below! Grey's Anatomy airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on ABC.

March 15, 2017 3:00pm PT by Lesley Goldberg 'Grey's Anatomy' Star Jesse Williams Previews "Japril the Sequel" Will a work trip to Montana help get Jackson and April back on track? To say that Grey's Anatomy favorites Jackson (Jesse Williams) and April (Sarah Drew) have come a long way since arriving at Seattle Grace Grey Sloane from Mercy West all those years (and TV seasons) ago is a bit of an understatement. Individually, April and Jackson arrived as surgical residents and have worked tirelessly to become key administrators at the hospital (with the latter now the board chairman). And while their professional careers have taken off, their personal lives have become more stagnant after the arrival of their daughter, Harriet. During Thursday's episode "Who Is He (and What Is He To You)?" Jackson and April will travel to Montana for a case and, in typical Shondaland fashion, wind up tending to their personal lives and the nature of their relationship. "All we do is test each other," Williams told The Hollywood Reporter of the episode. "But this forces them into a space together." Indeed, while April chose to move into Jackson's house as the on-again, off-again couple adjusted to parenthood and her recovery from a traumatic childbirth, the road trip is forged from a similar place. "Jackson didn’t plan to have her on this trip with him; he could have chosen her and he didn’t," Williams says. "We’re thrown together in a very tight space both literally and figuratively, so that forces us to figure out what the hell they are to each other. What do they want from each other? What do they not want from each other? What exhausts one about the other?" As for what to expect, Williams remained tight-lipped about the arrival of his biological father in the episode but said that by the end of the hour, Jackson is "grateful" to have April there with him — though he downplayed if that was for personal or professional reasons. "She knows him better than anybody; that’s just a fact," he says. "They can run from that and fight against that, but it’s just true. They do have a tremendous love for each other and reliance on each other, and that’s something that I think really comes out in this episode. It’s a bit of a pressure cooker." Grey's Anatomy airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on ABC.

Grey's Anatomy: Minnick faces uphill battle at Grey Sloan Natalie Abrams@NatalieAbrams Posted on February 15, 2017 at 7:00pm EST Eliza Minnick hasn’t made the best first impression at Grey Sloan. Not only did Minnick (Marika Dominczyk) basically oust Richard (James Pickens Jr) as the head of the surgical residency program, but she also essentially got Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) suspended. So when Minnick implements Phase 2 of her teaching methods during Thursday’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy, the doctors of Grey Sloan won’t take it very well. EW turned to Dominczyk to get the scoop: ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Eliza is implementing her next phase of teaching. What does that entail? MARIKA DOMINCZYK: That entails 100 percent using Eliza’s method, which means the residents get to go to work and the attendings are way more hands-off. It’s going to be like a real trial of this method that Eliza believes is tried and true, and the only way to move the hospital forward. How will the attendings take to the next phase? They’re not going to like it. It’s going to take a little bit of arm twisting to get there. Not many of them like Eliza Where Ameila has been hiding out, way from Owen :( SOURCE https://twitter.com/NicDecorator/status/827520316029038592
