Abbott Elementary 4×01 Recap
“The Reunion,” the first episode of Season 4 of Abbott Elementary, starts with Janine (Quinta Brunson) thinking about her summer and her friendship with Gregory (Tyler James Williams). At first, she tells the documentary crew that they chose to stay friends, but it’s quickly clear that they are dating. Fans who have been rooting for them since Season 1 are happy about this cute turn of events.
One funny part of the show is when Ava (Janelle James) calls in a district HR rep because she is worried about Janine and Gregory’s relationship. As they try to figure out how to show their feelings to their coworkers — tension and awkwardness arise. When Janine thinks about her past relationships, her fears come to the surface, making her hesitant to give Gregory her full attention.
The funny parts get even better when Janine forgets her presentation materials and Gregory has to go get them. When he comes back with her house keys, the faculty starts to make wild guesses about their connection, which leads to Janine saying, “We’re not selling drugs.” “Let’s have sex!” This shocking moment shows how the show is both funny and awkward at the same time.
At the same time, the school gets its first white student from a nearby PGA golf course building project, which makes the teachers laugh at their own cultural shock. Things get worse when a water pipe breaks and the school loses water. This makes Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter) look into whether the building crew used non-union workers.
The first episode strikes the perfect mix between humor, character growth, and social commentary, paving the way for a great fourth season. As Janine and Gregory work out their relationship — fans can’t wait to see what happens next for the teachers at Abbott Elementary.
