What happens at Noah’s wedding?
As the wedding approaches, Peter and Anne start to distance themselves from Noah and Logan. This is likely due to the fact that they don’t feel comfortable with him being around them while he’s still married to Ginny. Logan and Emma try to make up for their lack of support by being supportive of Noah and Ginny. However, this doesn’t go well as they continue to butt heads with Peter and Anne. This leads to some tension on the boat, which is only made worse by the fact that everyone is trying to be supportive of each other but not really understanding why it’s happening.
When Noah and Ginny tie the knot, Peter can’t stop looking at Emma. Eventually though the truth does come out, and it ends with Noah punching Peter in the face, Anne obviously unhappy with Peter and Logan storming off, especially when he learns Emma didn’t study the theatre.
Emma and Peter are not talking.
How do Peter and Emma move past their exs?
After a heated argument, Emma and Noah eventually have a conversation. They manage to leave things on a civilized note, but Noah’s amusing “Stay away from my wife” is a harsh reminder of what happened between them.
Emma realizes that they’ve never really been compatible and comes to terms with the fact that she was only with him because she didn’t want to end up alone, rather than genuinely feeling love for him.
Meanwhile, Peter and Anne break up amicably this time, realizing that although they had some good times together, they’re not fulfilled by one another and want different things in life.
How does I Want You Back end?
As they sit in silence, waiting for the turbulence to pass, Peter can’t help but think about how lucky he is to have Emma in his life. ..

As Peter and Jane look into each other’s eyes, they finally embrace their own feelings for one another. This moment allows the couple to finally embrace their own emotions for one another. As they look into each other’s eyes, we fade to black.
