This is the next step that makes sense. But she can’t help but think about going back to Abbott, where she used to work. Janine feels like she wants to go back to her old job even though she is doing well at her current job and is excited about her future at the district.

When Gregory goes to Janine’s school to turn in a grant request, it makes her problems stand out even more. Jacob, Melissa, Barbara (Sheryl Lee Ralph), and Mr. Johnson (William Stanford Davis), along with the rest of the Abbott team, give Janine gifts to show how much she has meant to them. Gregory gives her a pot of dirt from his yard as a sign of growth and being open to what might come next. This action and other things that remind Janine of Abbott make her question her choice.

Everything is under her control, from the entertainment to the decorating, to make sure everything is just right. Even though some of her coworkers aren’t sure, Ava is still sure that Questlove will show up, which will make everyone even more excited for the fair.
The rest of the team at Abbott Elementary is busy getting ready for Ava Fest as well. Mr. Johnson is in charge of trying the food. He’s not pleased, and everyone in the cafeteria freaks out. Melissa, Jacob (Chris Perfetti), Barbara, and Gregory plan something else to do in case Questlove doesn’t show up. When the day of Ava Fest comes, the school is turned into a fun-filled wonderland, full of booths, games, and decorations.
