The official logline for Season 4’s premiere episode, “Back to School” has been unveiled, it reveals, “The neighboring construction site of a new golf course is causing issues at Abbott, forcing the teachers to find creative solutions. An HR representative visits the school. Following their kiss, Janine and Gregory’s relationship status is revealed.”
In other words, there are new challenges for the staff to face, and fans are definitely getting an update on Janine and Gregory’s romance, which was seemingly confirmed in Season 3’s final moments when they kissed. Regarding their future, Williams told TV Insider following Season 3’s finale, “They’re both very professional people who enjoy doing their jobs in a professional way. Incorporating feelings has made that difficult, but now these feelings are out in the open. I really want to see how they navigate, how much of their personal life comes into the workspace and vice versa, and how much of the workspace comes into their personal life.”
It seems like the HR representative’s visit could add an interesting layer to their relationship, which we hinted at with the reveal of Season 4’s premiere photos. See those here, and stay tuned for more on Abbott as we approach the show’s return.
