Spoiler alert for 'A Million Little Things' Season 2 Episode 17 titled 'One Year Later' 

It is going to be a year since Jon Dixon (Ron Livingston) ended his own life. Sometimes, we can hardly believe the group has been through so much over the course of just one year.

The upcoming episode titled 'One Year Later', suggests that the group will be looking back at the year without Jon and just how much his departure from their lives affects them.

Creator DJ Nash had recently told us how important a role Jon plays in their lives even after his death, which means his role on the show is not even close to over.

According to the official synopsis of the episode, "It's the one-year anniversary of Jon’s death and everyone reflects on how much their lives have changed over the last year. But for Eddie, his dream opens up a new mystery."

The promo video for the upcoming episode 'One Year Later' suggests that the group is going to get together for a memorial dinner on Jon's death anniversary.

In a promo video, Gary Mendez (James Roday) is seen telling Eddie Saville (David Guintoli) and Rome Howard (Romany Malco) that they have seen a lot of change in the year but he can't say the same for himself.

Eddie and Rome have seen a substantial character arc and several developments in their storylines, but Gary is still stuck on the same issues from when the show started.  

Fans can't help but agree with Gary as he laments over his own development, especially since a lot of his storyline revolved around cancer and Maggie.

"Sadly, Gary is right. Eddie and Rome have had quite the character development since the show started. Gary? Not so much. He's the same person he was in the pilot. Not that it's a bad thing. But not great, too. Too bad his entire storyline has always been centered around cancer and Maggie," commented a fan. 

As the past and the present clash for the group, we expect to see old wounds and issues brought up, along with a lot of drama and intrigue. In a new branching storyline that has something to do with a lakehouse, we might know about some (more) accidents from Eddie's past. 

'A Million Little Things' airs on Thursdays at 10/ 9c on ABC.
