The excitement surrounding the highly anticipated crossover episode featuring Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny has finally reached its peak with the release of Part 1. This significant event, aired as Season 4 Episode 9 of the acclaimed ABC series, showcases the teachers at Abbott Elementary navigating their dynamics with a unique group of local volunteers.
Here’s a breakdown of the key moments from the Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny crossover, Part 1.
What Happens in Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny Crossover Part 1?
Titled “Volunteers,” this inaugural crossover episode introduces characters from the FXX series: Mac, Frank, Dennis, Charlie, and Dee. The juxtaposition of these two sitcoms is undoubtedly intriguing, allowing the always-outlandish characters to coexist within the earnest world of Abbott Elementary.
Throughout the episode, it becomes clear that the guests from It’s Always Sunny aren’t true volunteers at all; rather, they are fulfilling 100 hours of court-mandated community service at Willard R. Abbott Elementary School. Nonetheless, the teachers choose to allow them to stay.
Dee initially strikes up a friendship with Janine until her interest shifts to Gregory, Janine’s boyfriend. After a direct rejection, Dee’s pursuit leads her to suspect Gregory may be interested in men.
In a subplot, Charlie embarks on learning to read, while Dennis skillfully avoids the documentary crew. Frank finds himself in conflict with Mr. Johnson over the school’s raccoon issue but surprisingly bonds with Gregory. Meanwhile, Mac plays a key role in helping Ava secure funding from golf course developers.
When Will Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny Crossover Part 2 Be Released?
The highly anticipated Part 2 of the Abbott Elementary and It’s Always Sunny crossover is set to air as an episode of the 17th season of Abbott Elementary. It promises to revisit the same events from Part 1 but will be presented “through the prism of” It’s Always Sunny, likely premiering “four or five months” after the first part.
