What happened in the previous episode of Abbott Elementary?

In Abbott Elementary Season 4 Episode 20, Ava Fest: Tokyo Drift, Ava once again came to rescue the teachers from a difficult situation despite her departure from the school. Still facing financial issues, the staff decided to hold a car wash to raise money for the school.

Janine chose a donation-based system, expecting that customers would be empathetic toward the teachers and the students. When the plan failed, Ava arrived at the car wash and handed over a list of wealthy individuals who could become their potential customers.

However, when the elite people actually started reaching the spot with their luxury cars, the staff realized most of them had earned riches through illegal means. With the event in jeopardy, Ava helped out once again as she came up with the idea of a block party at school.

The party was successfully organized with various activities and a surprise performer. Meanwhile, Gregory, who started working as the interim principal in Ava’s absence, realized how difficult his dream job actually was.

He had a hard time dealing with angry parents during the open house and became unsure about his future. On the other hand, Ava opened up to Janine about her desire to return to Abbott Elementary, and the latter became determined to figure out a way to bring her back.
