There's a happy interlude when April and Jackson are hooking up and are in counseling. Then the scene from the midseason finale where April challenges Jackson to tell her he wants to end things. Then to their first separation hookup, which ended ambiguously.

Their fight about why she left ends up with them having sex. The next round of flashbacks revolves around how April wanted Jackson to come back to Jordan with her, but he missed the plane. They have a fight before all of that about how she wants him to come but he claims to have commitments that he won't abandon. Jackson runs into a problem with Tatiana's facial reconstruction. She tries to comfort her about April being gone at Christmas, and about it being the anniversary of losing Samuel. Then to April in Jordan, unable to get a sat phone signal to reach Jackson. Then to Jackson getting a cut on his arm stitched up by Ben.

Then to Tatiana looking through their wedding album, and getting upset that she'll never be beautiful like that again. Then to April and Jackson's wedding ceremony, then to the motel the night before where April tries to insist on no premarital sex but ends up dragging Jackson into her room. Then to a thrift store where she hunts for a new wedding dress and they compromise about the wedding ceremony. Then to the car trip to Vegas, where they discuss things like where they'll live and April changing her name. Next April tells a stressed out Jackson that there will be no more sex, but he's too stressed about doing a tricky procedure without Sloan. And then to Tatiana being brought into the ER initially after having acid thrown in her face -- it's mentioned that this is while Sloan is "on a plane to Idaho." The next scene is April and Jackson walking through the hospital complaining about attendings when they come to the spot where Reed was shot. They talk a little about the shooting, and Jackson is shocked and a little uncomfortable when April hugs him as she starts to cry. Then to their first day as residents at Mercy West, where they are asked to introduce themselves and what they think they want their specialties to be.
