I don't know what is not clicking for people.

Sarah CANNOT give anything away. She is working OVERTIME to not give anything away.

April HAS BEEN married to Matthew and coparenting with Jackson. That is NOT a spoiler. That is something we know.

Her split from Matthew WOULD BE A SPOILER therefore Sarah agreed with Katie about how she has been married to Matthew and living in Seattle. Like, no shit????

There are MOVING BOXES in April's house. April has on NO RING. This indicates the split is very recent.

Do people really expect her to say no no, they're split or getting divorced? She won't even answer if the sky is blue she's so scared to give anything away. She signed a legal document preventing her from spoiling A N Y T H I N G

Stop reading so much into her vague and not at all revealing interviews. I don't know how many times she has to say SHE CANNOT GIVE ANYTHING AWAY.

A theory on clothes

My theory is that all that happens in that promo and the promo pictures is after Jackson visits his father. When he gets in the car on 17x13 he is wearing different clothes as the ones he’s wearing in the promo video and pictures. Also, since he’s making an 11 hour drive I don’t think he stops to sleep or get changed at all  because he is a man on a mission. 

And after he talks to his dad, then he drives to her in the rain, and his whole “impulsive and out of nowhere” speech.

About April’s wardrobe, I think at some point she might get wet in the rain and change clothes. When they are having dinner it’s kinda dark and he’s dressed the same way and she’s not. 

Maybe he stays the night?

I think the promo is at night. Jackson comes in. April ends up getting wet, make of that what you will, hence the wet hair selfie, and changes clothes. Jackson stays the night (wine and fruit same night as promo) and the rest of the promo pics are the next morning. Like this is him leaving the next day, not arriving. That's why he's wearing the same thing. No bandage because the night before he replaced it with a bandaid.

Here's why I think japril are getting endgame

In the S17 premiere, Jackson gives a speech to Richard. He tells Richard "your wife's not here. And why is that? Because you sent her away. I know with all of my being you need to get over your stubborn pride and go after her. Bevause you're never going to get over it. And you're damn sure not getting over her."

Premiere plots usually have some sort of hint of where a characters season is going. Always have. Add to that, Harriet was in the episode with her cute little "you're not a step mom"

April is the one thing Jackson can't get over. He said it to Maggie's face in season 15. He's still saying it to Richard 3 seasons later.

MARK SLOAN. I don't care I will never believe they had Mark say "when you love someone you tell them" and it wasn't a direct nod to this scene with Jackson

After which Jackson literally stood up and stole the bride at April and Matthew's wedding

Debbie Allen posted the japril 4am video and captioned it "is there hope for Japril ❤👀" why even hint at a romantic coupling. And don't start with Matthew either. That was so whack even the actor who plays him was a japril stan. They rushed into a marriage because they were lonely and had just been through some very traumatizing things. Their marriage falling apart given their history of April leaving him at the alter for the guy she now co parents with is the least shocking news ever.

I think Jesse is leaving and I think he wanted japril endgame. April's not coming back to give him some pep talk. Robert Avery is here for that. Or from what I've read convince him to be with Jo of all people. Jo? Really? Jo and Jackson don't even feel each other like that. They're booty calls. Jo isn't going to gaf Jackson gets back with April. They haven't even had a scene in like 3 episodes. I think JW will possibly still be around sometimes to direct Grey's or Rebel if Grey's is still on.

Good news is there is only 2 weeks to find out!

You know what I’m thinking about right now? Kissing you.

Lord why are people freaking out about that Jesse interview where they ask him if he is staying on Grey's and his actual answer is "I'm sticking around.. sort of.. so far..." then changes the subject?

Dude can't just spoil that he's leaving before his episode airs. Departure announcements are planned and usually coincide with what happens on the show. Imagine someone asked Giacomo two weeks before DeLuca died if he was sticking around. What's he gonna say? Nope, two weeks, I'm out! It's the same thing.

What yall need to pay to is the fact that he stuttered his way through it and changed the subject pronto and also take into consideration he probably will be "sticking around sort of so far" to direct future episodes if Grey's isn't cancelled

Let's take a look at this picture from the.. count it.. 1, 2. 3RD Japril episode.

They are clearly in April's kitchen. We have seen Jackson's place and it's not his. They are having a glass of wine. April looks pretty down in the dumps herself.

Now ask yourself.. would April invite Jackson in to have a glass of wine in her husband's kitchen? With the man she left him at the alter for? Fat chance.

Which means one of two things.

April has moved OR Matthew has moved out.
