This is a flashback to earlier in the same day Will's flashback to meeting Larry started with (presumably, anyway, as they're both wearing the same clothes). This day ends badly. Will bitterly leaves Hannah at the museum (or some other building with columns), and whatever goes down between them inspires Will to drop out of college.
Aw snap! There are no words to describe how excited I am that we'll finally learn about that one-panel flashback Will had ages ago. And from a different POV! I just remember her looking super sad and Will looking super angry/resentful as he walked away. Seriously, I've been wondering about it for ages!
Oooh I always wondered what the sad Hanna standing by the column was all about! I thought it was maybe just supposed to show that Hanna was sad that Will was leaving college, but OF COURSE there's a whole story there.
Meredith Gran, is it possible that you are even more awesome than I already thought you were? And oh sweet Jesus…There's something about that blue…It touches me deep inside…Amazes me when I step outside…I'm sweating…I'm sweating

MARK?! Please dude. You know his name, and his beard is legendary.

Complicated is his speciality.
@BOLTHARDPEC
Aww, poor guy's got some issues with over-analysing himself

Is that Will? Or a new mystery man to confuse Hanna's feelings? DUN DUN DUNNN!

It's Will and Hanna from a memory of their past.

It's hard to tell without his 5 o'clock shadow!

I made the same face as Hanna when he said "Mark".
HOW DARE YOU SIR.

Fishing, perhaps. For what I'm not entirely sure yet. Hopefully my gut instinct is wrong on this one.
William
Have we seen this character before? I can't place him.

I think its Will. This is a flashback
@EbonyxFlo
If that is Will, that explains the beard contest he tried to start while he was dating Mar.

Man, that's the most self-pitying Will has ever done in two word balloons.
Shras
