Did ‘Abbott Elementary’ Confirm This Janine & Gregory Theory for Season 6?

Abbott Elementary‘s latest Season 6 episode, “Competition,” seems to reveal that a theory about Janine (Quinta Brunson) and Gregory’s (Tyler James Williams) romantic future may actually come true after the latest developments. Warning: Spoilers for Abbott Elementary Season 6 Episode 6 ahead!

In the episode, Gregory reveals his plan to propose while asking Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter) for help in booking a reservation for a nice Italian dinner. After the arrangements are made, though, Janine is asked by Ava (Janelle James) to help hype up the step team amid their high-stakes competition that could send them on the trip of a lifetime if they win.

Unaware that Gregory had made reservations, Janine agrees to take on the gig, forcing him to scramble for a rebooking. All throughout the episode, he battles with the restaurant over the phone until Melissa steps in and takes over the phone battle. She managed to rebook Gregory for a date in December, to which he agreed.

As fate would have it, though, the step team actually won the competition, despite a mid-practice injury that took out their best dancer. This means they’ll be heading to Disneyland, as fans already knew, for the upcoming 100th episode, which will serve as the midseason finale before the winter break.

When Melissa overhears the planned December travel dates for Disneyland, she reassures Gregory that she’d take on the reservation in his absence, which would pave the way for an alternative proposal. Could Gregory take advantage of the Disneyland setting to give Janine the proposal of a lifetime in one of the happiest places on Earth?
