Sure, Chicago Med‘s Ethan and April are getting hitched on this Wednesday’s fall finale, however the lead-up to the large day is just not with out its hiccups.
The episode (airing at 8/7c on NBC) marks longtime sequence common Brian Tee’s last one as Dr. Ethan Choi, and the seeds for his exit had been planted within the Season 8 premiere, when Yaya DaCosta reprised her function as Ethan’s ex April. The 2 then resumed their romantic relationship, and by the Nov. 16 installment, their associates and colleagues had obtained shock invites to their marriage ceremony. Ethan defined to Dr. Charles that his dad’s dying crystalized issues for him, and that’s in all probability why issues have been simpler with April this time round. And but, the couple can have some difficult emotions in regards to the thought of getting married in Wednesday’s episode.
“It’s an enormous step for each of those characters. Neither has been married earlier than. It’s an enormous step, each emotionally and professionally,” government producer Andrew Schneider explains to TVLine.
Along with April and Ethan’s private worries about marriage, “April’s dad probably throws a wrench into the works by having a well being challenge the day earlier than the marriage,” Schneider previews.
As for the nuptials themselves, they’re fairly totally different from Ben and Maggie’s bowling alley-set marriage ceremony, and Will and Natalie’s ill-fated ceremony, which was set on the identical church as April and Ethan’s nuptials.
“It’s a really conventional marriage ceremony,” EP Diane Frolov says. Provides Schneider: “The character of April’s been established as Catholic so it was vital to be married at a church marriage ceremony. Her household are observant. So we needed it to be a conventional marriage ceremony in a Catholic church with a priest.”
And it’s not simply April and Ethan who’re feeling the love within the fall finale. “Romance is within the air for Charles,” Schneider teases.
Elsewhere within the episode, “Crockett has great new challenges as a surgeon with new expertise,” whereas “Goodwin is dealing with main modifications within the administration of the hospital,” Schneider previews.
