Previously on This Is Us...

You know,

you don't need to stick around
here for my court hearing.

Yeah, no, I really do
need to stick around here

for your court hearing. I told
your vet counselor that I would.

Mr. and Mrs. Hodges,

I'm sorry for skipping school

with Malik, but I am not sorry

for yesterday because that was

the best day of my life.

Okay. Pick a letter.

- Any letter.
- Oh. Um...

"Z".

- "Z". I got it. Uh...
- Yeah, thanks.

Zachary.

Okay.

Zeke.

Mm-hmm.

Zeppelin.

Ooh. But what if they're all girls?

Zoe?

Mm.

Zophie.

- Zusan.
- No, you can't just put Zs on "S" names.

I'm telling you, Jack,

we can never go back there.

Kevin bit the librarian.

I'm sure it wasn't that bad.

He bit her on her face with intent.

Okay, so, the kids

are never gonna learn how
to read. It's no big deal.

- Parachute! Parachute!
- What?

- Parachute!
- Okay, okay.

Parachute it is. There you go. And...

parachute!

- Ooh!
- Parachute.

I dropped Kevin at Sophie's,

Randall at the library,

Kate at the mall, and I
fixed that annoying rattle

in the Wagoneer, and all before lunch.

I mean, it's a bird. It's
a plane. It's Super Dad.

Well, look at you, man of the year.

Couldn't do it without you.

Well, you'll never have to.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

- Synced and corrected by Firefly -
- www.addic7ed.com -

I think the spray arm is broken.

Oh. So I don't need a
whole new dishwasher?

Oh, thank God. That is the last thing

I need right now.

I got it! Don't get it. I'll get it.

Hey.

I missed you, babe.

Oh, yeah? Prove it.

Hey.

- What's up, Randy?
- What's up?

How you doing, man? Hey, Rebecca.

- Hi, Marc.
- How's it going?

Damn, college boy.

What, back for more laundry?

You're here, like, every weekend.

- Hey, Bug, that's not lunch.
- I know.

I'll get something at the movies.

Oh, Beth and I just saw Practical Magic.

Oh, the one with Sandra Bullock
and Nicole Kidman together.

Oh, I've been dying to see that.

But we're not 12-year-old girls.

- You ready? Good to go? All right.
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.

- All right. Rebecca, good to see you.
- Bye, guys.

- Have fun.
- Randy, good to see you.

What does Kate see in that guy?

Honestly, I'm just
happy that she's happy.

And you, Mom? How you doing?

These mortgage payments are eating away

at what's left of the insurance money,

and I really need to
get a job, but I'm not...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I-I...

I don't want you to worry.

Since I'm already here,

you know, we could look at your résumé.

That is a very sweet
but unnecessary offer.

And I'm sure you have a ton of
schoolwork you have to work on.

I already knocked out
next week's reading,

Mom, I'm a huge nerd.

Résumés are my jam.
Like, I live for them.

Look, um, Cassidy...

We're both adults.

You're single. I'm separated.

Nobody did anything wrong.

You're okay, though?

Because the last thing I want to do

is make your life more complicated.

I'm fine.

- I'll...
- You'll what?

You'll call me?

Probably not.

You slept with her, didn't you?

That's why Cassidy hasn't
been at AA all week?

Not gonna talk about that with you.

Let me ask you something.

Just out of curiosity here.

What's wrong with you?

I mean, I thought you were trying

to help the poor kid fix
her marriage, not destroy it.

You're like a human wrecking ball.

Yeah.

Yeah, thanks for the pep talk.

No, I'm serious. Explain it to me.

What kind of person does that, huh?

Huh?

Shame on you.

Shame on you.

I'm so glad

I could make it out
early for Thanksgiving.

The house is gorgeous.

Miguel is gonna love

all these period details.

How's his visit with his kids going?

Oh, it's good.

He is gonna take the train down

from New York in time
for dinner, though.

Okay.

Mom and I are off for
our tour of Philly.

Tess, Annie, let's go, girls.

The playdate express
is leaving the station.

Can't wait for some
quality "R" and "R" time.

- Me too.
- Mwah!

That's, uh, that's Randall and Rebecca.

- I know, baby. I know.
- See what I'm saying?

- Hey, uh-uh.
- What?

That is for Deja and Malik's movie date.

It's not a date.

A date is when you go
out somewhere alone.

Well, them's the rules.

Chaperoned dates only.

We all agreed.

Besides, you won't even know I'm here.

You'll be in the living room.
I'll stay in the kitchen.

The kitchen and the living
room are the same room.

I just want him to take

one bite of the banana.

He should've tried solid
food at least two weeks ago.

Here's a theory.

Maybe baby doesn't like banana.

Everybody likes banana.
It's the healthy snack

- that comes in its own wrapper.
- Well,

- maybe we could try something else.
- Well, no.

We can't, because you can only
introduce one food at a time

in case there's an allergic reaction.

That's why I made the baby food chart

to match the daddy food chart.

Right.

Well, then, Jack,

it's boob juice until dinner.

I got to squeeze in a gym
sesh before my staff meeting,

so maybe we'll try again later.

You know what? I really
want to keep trying now.

No, babe, babe, babe.

Please wait for me, all right?

I already missed first rollover

and first sit up. I don't want
to miss first solid food.

- But I'll try to leave work early, okay?
- Mm-hmm.

- I love you, Kate.
- Love you.

Jack.

Mwah. Okay, bye.

Did you feel Daddy's kiss?

Wakey, wakey, eggs and bakey.

I don't have bacon.

I don't have eggs.

But I got coffee.

Hey.

Kevin, look, uh, you know, my, uh...

my court hearing's this afternoon.

I'm sorry if I was rough
on you the other day,

but you've beaten yourself
up enough. I'm coming in.

Yeah?

Oh, uh, hey, it's Nicky.

Um, is the kid with you?

No, we haven't spoken all week.

Well, he's just... He's locked himself

in the trailer since you
morons slept together.

But now he's gone, and
he left his phone here.

It's not like him to just take off.

Nicky, I've got my own
crap going on over here.

I mean, I just... I just
signed the divorce papers.

Cassidy, how many times

have I ever picked up
the phone and called you?

Yeah. Right, okay.

I'm on my way.

I think I overdressed
for this interview.

Kaufmann's would be lucky to have you.

Well, thank you for
all your help, sweetheart.

I really appreciate it.

But you don't have to
worry about me, okay?

Ever.

So, if you could, uh,
picture me grocery shopping

with three toddlers, you'll understand

I know all about multitasking.

I'm sure you do.

- Yeah.
- Oh, triplets. Wow.

- Yeah.
- Oh, uh, you're familiar

with our purchasing
and scheduling software?

Uh, if I'm honest, I-I'm not.

But I am computer proficient,

and I type 85 words a minute, so...

I'm sure I can handle
whatever software you use.

Mr. Simons,

- thank you so much for your time.
- Sure.

- How'd it go?
- Okay.

I think I sweat out all
the liquid in my body.

I'm gonna go freshen up for a second.

- Do you want to grab the car?
- Oh.

Okay, thanks.

I'll need to see some more applicants.

Huh? No, I didn't, so we...

Rebecca Pearson is here!

Mrs. Pearson, so good to see you again.

- Hi. Oh, a hug. Ooh!
- Hi. Welcome.

You know, Randall tells a lot of stories

about his family, like, a lot a lot.

Like, more than anyone,
ever, in human history.

Okay, let's give her some space, please.

You guys are very sweet.

I am just... I'm very proud of Randall.

My son, the congressman.

- Oh.
- It's, uh, councilman, Mom.

- I'm a councilman.
- Congressman, no.

- Councilman.
- Hey, I... I like the sound of that.

Hey, one job at a time, Jae-Dubs.

- Now, is it okay if I take pictures?
- Oh, of course.

Yeah? You don't mind?

- No.
- All right. Maybe, uh...

- You want to see the rest of the office?
- the two of you. Ready?

One, two, three.

- Nice. Oh.
- Jae-Won. Nice.

- Randall Pearson.
- Yeah.

- There's more to it, Mom.
- No, I know.

I just want to take pictures
along the way. All right.

Wow.

I like these maps, too.

This carpet is really...

I just want to make sure

I get every angle here.

- Let me see. This is your office?
- Yes, ma'am.

Right here.

Oh, wow, look at the desk.

Oh.

Uh, hi. Are you okay?

It's time for our walk.

I'm having a bad morning.

Join the club.

No. Seriously.

Bad mornings are worse for
people who had massive strokes.

I've got muscle spasms.

Maybe tomorrow.

Do you need help?

All right, well, don't just stand there.

You're letting the bugs in.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Hey-hey!

Hey, uh, Mrs.... Mrs. Pearson. Um,

thank you so much for having me over.

- What's that, popcorn?
- Mm-hmm.

Okay, you two,

just pretend I'm not here.

But also remember, I will
be here the whole time.

Neh!

You gonna take it?

Neh! You got to be fast.

All right, just take it.

Have fun, y'all.

So, I told you what
happened when I took my wife

out to Pittsburgh to do
some shopping last week.

Okay, so, we found this...

So, as he comes by us,

Crosby bumps our table,

knocks over her glass,

gets red wine all down her dress.

So I sucker-punch him.

You sucker-punched Sidney Crosby?

It was a new dress.

Another club soda?

Yeah.

Just so we're clear, uh,

you're telling a story
about how you sucker-punched

Pittsburgh Penguins
captain Sidney Crosby

for accidentally spilling wine

on your wife's dress?

Yeah.

Okay.

I mean, there's no way that happened.

But... but okay.

Buddy...

you looking for trouble?

No, no, I don't have
to look for trouble.

Trouble always finds me.

Like a human wrecking ball, actually.

Aren't you that actor that's
been hanging around town?

Let me ask you a question.
Uh, do you love your wife?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

She love you?

Of course.

I bet you a hundred bucks I can
get her to take her clothes off

within 20 minutes of meeting her.

What did you say?

Actually, you know what,
I might have overshot.

I'll tell you what I'll do.
Here, I'll bet you ten dollars

that I can get your wife out
of that wine-stained dress

within five minutes of meeting her.

What do you think? Huh?

Can I help you?

I'm Rebecca Pearson's son.

Uh, sh-she was just in here.

She and my father adopted me

when I was left at a fire station

and raised me as their own.

That's the kind of person she is.

Did she tell you that?

Uh, no.

That's also the kind of person she is.

Did she tell you my
father died last year,

saving our lives in a house fire?

Jesus.

- No.
- Of course not.

Because... she's not the type of person

to tell you a sob story
to try to get a job.

But you are?

Oh, absolutely.

Your mom's lucky to have you.

I can barely get my
son to return my calls.

She seems like a great person.

She certainly raised a great kid.

But she doesn't know
how to use the software,

and I don't have the time to train her.

Sir, I graduated top of my class.

I have a full scholarship
with Carnegie Mellon.

I'll teach her any software
you need by Monday morning.

Please.

Sh-She just needs a chance.

Oh, hey.

I was just grabbing my bag.

- You ready?
- Yeah.

Mm.

Mm! Everybody's all about

- the Philly cheesesteak...
- Mm-hmm.

... but my money's on the
roast pork from DiNic's

as the best sandwich in Philadelphia.

- I ordered these in special.
- Mm!

- It's delicious. Mm-hmm.
- Right?

- All right, so...
- Hmm?

... tell me about life in L.A.

Um...

it's-it's lovely.

That's it?

- Any celebrity sightings?
- No.

Don't you want to
complain about the traffic

- or how there's no weather?
- Mm. No.

I want to show you pictures of the baby.

Okay.

Where is my phone?

I just had it.

- Mom, it's okay.
- Come on. No,

it was really expensive.

And Miguel splurged
when I told him not to.

I'm sure it's in here. Hey.

Where could it be?

I mean, I just had it.

- Are you kidding me?
- Mom, it's okay.

- I'll just call it.
- I really need

to find my phone, though, Randall.

- Okay. Yeah.
- Okay? Can you help me, please?

Yes, ma'am. Hey, guys.

Has anybody seen my mom's phone?

Oh. No, I hear it.

Uh...

- Oh. Is it this?
- Hey!

- Hey!
- Oh! Okay.

- Crisis averted, Mrs. Pearson.
- There it is. Thank you.

I'm so sorry.

Um, okay, now I'm gonna show
you pictures of your nephew.

- Come on, sweetheart.
- Yes.

Look at this picture.

Ah.

Look at that one.

Look at his little face.

I'm not talking about this anymore.

I thought you said you wanted to.

I told you... it's just the way it is.

Okay, so you can't even
talk to them about it? I mean,

I don't get why you won't
just have the conversation.

And I don't get why you
can't take no for an answer.

Deja.

- Anything you want to talk about?
- Just...

please tell him to leave.

Hey, Malik?

I think it's best if you go home.

Yeah. Yeah, no, it was...
completely my fault.

I pushed her too hard, so...

Yeah.

You pushed her too hard.

And what... what was it, exactly?

It's not my place.

I'm sorry.

Malik,

if you push my daughter

on something that
makes her uncomfortable,

I have the right to know what's up.

Deja wants to see her mom.

Her birth mom.

That's what's up.

- Okay.
- Now, this is service.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

I'm happy you came by. Really.

Are you? 'Cause you don't act like it.

Yeah, I know. Ever since the stroke,

I have trouble making my voice and face

express empathy and gratitude.

Doesn't mean I don't have any.

Hey.

We've been looking for you.

Hey, come on.

Wha... ?

It's a funny story.

Did you win?

Did you drink?

No.

I thought about it, but no.

Come on.

Let's go.

Well...

I better go get changed.

Why, you got a hot date?

It's Wednesday.

You actually forgot.

Oh. No, your hearing.

Of course. Yes.

I...

I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

You're sorry.

Well, I'm sure that'll be
a big help with the judge,

that my character witness
looks like he went 12 rounds

with Mike Tyson.

But you know what? Just forget it.

I mean, I'm the idiot who threw
the chair through the window.

"I'm sorry" is like a...

It's like a magic
word when you're a kid.

Doesn't matter what you did.

Say you're sorry and it all goes away.

Then you grow up, and it just...

doesn't work anymore, does it?

No, it doesn't.

I'm sorry.

Me, too.

See what I mean?

Yeah.

Okay. A little makeup
will cover this right up.

I will say, for a Marine,

you've got a pretty gentle touch.

Well, whoever busted up
your face was an amateur.

You wouldn't want to see what
a professional can do to you.

Mm.

Growing up, uh,

my dad,

he-he flew a Cessna 150.

He called it The Screaming Eagle.

Named it after the
101st Airborne Division.

He was so proud to be in the 101st.

I didn't know your dad served.

You never mentioned that.

Well, not all of us have to talk

about our dead dads all the time.

Okay.

I never found what my dad
did in the military, though.

Bravery. Heroism.

I kept chasing it.

I enlisted again and again, thinking...

"This time I'll feel it".

I tried and I tried until...

I just ended up destroying
everything I had back home.

It wasn't you who destroyed
my marriage, Kevin.

I did that all by myself,

way before I met you.

All right.

I did my best.

There's only so much I can
do to fix a face like yours.

Mm.

You know, Cassidy, it's not too late

to put your family back together.

I signed the divorce papers yesterday.

Today is Wednesday.

Matty has swimming
lessons every Wednesday.

And, afterwards,

Ryan takes him to the diner
on Hawthorne for dinner.

Every Wednesday night, I park
across the street and I watch

and I try to work up the
courage to walk in and join them.

And I can't do it anymore.

I'm gonna call it a day.

Okay, kids.

Uh...

time to face the music.

Could you cut an avocado in half for me?

- Yeah.
- If I try it myself,

it's fifty-fifty I lose a finger.

And I've only got five left that work.

- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

Jack, what do you think?

- You want to try some?
- Oh, you can try,

but this kid does not eat anything.

Ah, open up. Here it comes.

It's like guacamole.

There you go.

Wait, what?

Buddy, you did it!

Look at you.

Oh, my... This is...

Well, this is terrible timing.

Sh-She wants to see her birth mom.

But she doesn't feel like she
can talk to you guys about it.

She really did not like
it when I pushed her on it,

which... again, I did,

like an idiot.

Oh, God. What if I blew it?

What if she's over me?
I mean, the-the best girl

- in the world and...
- Hey, Malik,

- I need you to focus, okay?
- Yeah.

Deja knows that she can
talk to us about anything.

Okay.

"Okay"?

What's-what's that supposed to mean?

Well, she did... talk
to you guys about it.

A while ago.

I guess you just kind of let it slide.

No, we didn't.

Did you take her to see her mom?

No, but that's because
everything just got so busy.

Okay.

Malik, you "okay" me one more time...

Off the record.

Yeah?

Just say it.

Well, Randall ran for city council.

You guys moved to Philly.

You opened a dance studio.

I mean, you weren't too
busy for any of that stuff.

Hey.

Yo.

Dude.

- What?
- Well, your tie is a disaster.

- What-what is this?
- What? I...

I haven't worn one of
these since the prom.

Okay, I got you.

Look at that.

That's sharp.

Uncle Nicky.

Hey.

You got this.

We got this.

All rise.

Uncle Nicky.

Oh, Miguel's train is on time.

There's a very persistent
young man downstairs

who won't leave until
you come talk to him.

Then he'll be waiting a long time.

Deja, I'm sorry we haven't
taken you to see Shauna.

What, he told you?

No, Beth, he shouldn't have said that.

- It's no big deal.
- Hey. Yes, it is.

It's a very big deal.

I don't want you to think that...

I'm ungrateful

for everything you
and Randall do for me.

That-That's why I didn't
want to say anything.

That's why I got so mad at Malik.

Hey.

We're gonna look at a calendar

and find a good time to visit.

I promise.

Uh, Beth.

Um...

I'd actually like to invite her here.

For Thanksgiving.

If that's okay.

Okay.

Yeah.

Okay.

I got a bunch of
mushy, nutritious stuff.

All right, we ready? Huh?

I'm sorry I ran out this morning,

but now I'm here, I'm all in,

and I brought a smorgasbord
of solid food options.

Wait, what are those?

Are these perfectly ripe avocados?

Um...

Yeah, they're from
Gregory's tree next door.

All of the avos at Trader
Joe's were hard and green,

like the Hulk's calf muscles.

These are quintessentially California

first solid food.

Oh, this is gonna be great.

Thank you, Gregory.

All right.

Oh, let me get my phone. Hold
on, let me get my phone. Okay.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Baby Jack Damon.

First solid food.

Can you hear the spoon? You hear it?

Here comes a spoonful of ripe avocado.

He did it.

Kate, he did it, he's eating it.

First solid food, buddy.

Oh.

Today was the day!

You want a little more, buddy?

Here you go.

Mr. Pearson, I've reviewed your case,

and I'm willing to consider
the pretrial diversion

advocated by the prosecution.

But I have one question.

Do you feel remorse for what you did?

Not really.

I mean, throwing that chair...

... was the best thing
that ever happened to me.

If I didn't throw that
chair through the window,

uh, I wouldn't have stopped drinking,

wouldn't have joined AA

or stuck with therapy.

When I threw that chair,

my-my nephew came back into my life.

No matter how much I told him to scram,

he just stuck around.

For 40 years,

I have pushed people away.

Not because I-I thought
they would hurt me

but because I thought I would hurt them.

I told myself I was doing
it for their own good,

yeah, 'cause I'm broken.

But...

but I was wrong.

I wasn't broken.

I was sick.

And when you're sick,

you, uh...

you got to let the people

who care about you help.

No matter what that
judge says, he did it.

Mm-hmm.

He turned his life
around, forgave himself.

Puts things in perspective, doesn't it?

Mr. Pearson.

I will sign off on the diversion.

As long as you remain in treatment

and don't re-offend for two years,

All charges will be expunged

from your record.

Look, I'm sorry about before.

Nah, no matter how
sorry you think you are,

- I'm definitely more sorry.
- No.

I'm, like, the sorriest dude
in the history of sorry dudes.

I'm going to the pantry.

You'll be unsupervised
for the next 30 seconds.

Okay, that's enough!

You get on out of here, Malik.

I have a feeling that
your little performance at dinner

has more to do about me than Andre.

Hey, guys.

- Hey.
- Hello.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Well, how was R & R time?

Oh, it was lovely.

Randall was the perfect
tour guide, of course.

- Hi.
- And I took about a million pictures

- on my phone.
- She was glued to that phone all day,

except when she lost it.

What? Again?

Oh, I had to buy her that new phone

'cause she lost the last one.

Now, the two of you just leave me be.

I did not lose it, Randall.

Can I talk to you about Thanksgiving?

Mm-hmm.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Here we are.

What are you gonna say?

If he won't even let me
sit down and join them,

I'll just...

give him the divorce
papers and walk out.

If he does... ?

I'll think of something.

Well, don't be me, Cassidy.

Don't let it take 40
years to get better.

You're the best cautionary tale

a girl could ask for.

When do you leave town?

Uh, I'm going to
Philly for Thanksgiving,

and then I'm back to L.A.

You know, the thing I did
find in the Marine Corps

was the thing I wasn't looking for.

Friendship.

Community.

Over there, those guys
were my family, you know?

Then I got back here
and it was like I...

moved to another country without a map.

Thanks for helping me find my way home.

Hey.

I hope you find your
happy ending, Kevin.

I hope you find yours, too.

Now, of course I will.

Yes.

That is very kind of you.

Thank you so much.

Okay, bye-bye.

I got it.

Hey, Mom.

That's awesome.

- I knew you nailed it.
- Well.

So, now that I actually got the job,

were you gonna tell me
what you said to Mr. Simons?

- What?
- Randall.

You just seemed so down on yourself.

I just want people to
see you the way I do.

You...

You're so much like your father.

You know that?

It makes me... very proud.

Very proud.

I cannot believe I'm starting

an entry-level position at my age.

I never would have seen this coming.

Not in a million years.

- Sorry, I'm sorry...
- Mom, it's okay.

Shouldn't be putting any
of this on you, sweetheart.

I mean...

I am the parent and you're the kid.

You know, you should be out
there having fun with Beth.

I don't need you to
worry about me. I promise.

I'm just happy that you need

to come here to do your laundry.

Mom, they have laundry at the dorms.

I come back for R & R time.

Randall, Rebecca.

Oh, God, that was one
of the lamest things

- I've ever said, wasn't it?
- It was pretty lame. Yes.

Yeah, it was.

But I loved it.

Hi.

Hey.

You don't seem like yourself today.

You had a few, uh, mix-ups.

Oh, yeah.

Miguel calls them "senior moments".

Yeah, I get it.

But this felt like, uh,
a little more than that.

The whole thing with the phone.

I'm fine, Randall.

I'm fine. I'm just... getting older.

- I don't recommend it.
- I know.

I'm sure it's nothing.

I was just wondering if
you've seen a doctor lately.

You know, I could call around,

set something up for
you while you're in town.

I'm only here for a few days

and I barely get to
see my granddaughters.

I'm not, I'm not gonna
go see some doctor

just because you're overreacting.

I'm just worried that there could...

- I said I'm fine.
- Mom.

Randall, enough.

Okay?

I'm still the parent here
and you're still the son,

in case you've forgotten.

Okay.

Okay, what?

- Oh, forget it, it's all good.
- No, no, no, no.

If you want to say something,
go ahead and say it.

Mom, the only thing that I
want to say is that I love you.

And I'm concerned.

You're acting extremely defensive

over absolutely nothing right now,

and that's only making
me more concerned.

And for you to say that you're
the mother and I'm the son

after 20 years of...

- Of what?
- Nothing.

I didn't say anything.

Yeah, you did.

You said something very clearly.

And it was cruel.

And it was beneath you.

You know what? I'm tired.

I think I need to lay down for a minute,

so could you... please leave?

Yeah.

Man.

Hey, uh, you should
come to Philly with me.

For Thanksgiving.

I know the family would love to see you.

I could do that.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Hey.

You're a good kid.

You're a good kid.

Who's my good boy?

Me.
