Will's relationship concerns

Will's impulsive decision to propose to McCoy after learning about the job offer is a step outside of his comfort zone. However, viewers have seen very little of their relationship, making it challenging to feel invested in their future together. Will and McCoy's relationship is on the fast track to commitment, but the potential long-distance dynamic adds a layer of complexity and uncertainty.

Karen reconsiders her commitment

In the season finale of Will & Grace, Karen reconsiders her commitment to Nikki and her own sexual orientation. At the airport bar, Karen tells Smitty that she is a lesbian. She explains that after her marriage to Stan fell apart, she was unsure of who she was or what she wanted, and that is when Nikki came along. Karen also admits that she is still not entirely sure who she is. Smitty suggests that maybe Karen isn't gay, but rather a straight woman who is lost. Karen does not find this amusing, and viewers have expressed frustration and disappointment over Karen's storyline, calling it a "bisexual erasure disaster".

Karen's announcement over the airport microphone that she is straight is a reference to the famous scene in "The Puppy Episode" of Ellen (1994), where Ellen accidentally comes out as gay over the airport intercom.

McCoy's big job offer

Will and McCoy's relationship has been progressing well, and Will doesn't want McCoy to turn down this opportunity and grow to resent him.

Will and Grace are at the airport, on their way to Spain for Jack and Estefan's wedding, when McCoy tells Will about the job offer. The gang's flight is delayed and then cancelled, and Jack and Estefan end up getting married at the airport by their friend, Miss Coco.

Will and McCoy's relationship is now on the fast track to commitment, with Will proposing to McCoy before Jack can say "I do" at his wedding. McCoy accepts, and the season ends with two engagements and a wedding.
