We now know that the final episode will find Ethan marrying April Sexton (Yaya DaCosta)! The happy ending brings their time together onscreen to a close. However, series showrunners offered a hint about what the characters will be doing in the future, too.

Co-showrunner Andrew Schneider told People that Ethan and April will remain in Chicago after their wedding.

“They’re starting a mobile clinic so that together they can take first-rate medical care to underserved neighborhoods in Chicago,” he explained. “They’ll remain in town!”

Of course, that opens the door for a possibility of a return in the future, even if it is just for an episode or two.

Co-showrunner Diane Frolov also opened up about the decision to end with a wedding: “We felt [the wedding] gave closure and a happy ending to the Ethan-April love story.”
