you wanted to finish school.

I think the time is now.

- Oh, my God, it's a boy.

I went to a database
for the war memorial.

Nicholas Pearson.

He might be dead, but he didn't
die here in Vietnam.

BETH: She will break you, Kevin.

Her background is complicated.

You're not gonna win this one, Randall.

The numbers aren't there.

BETH: You told me that

if at any point, I wasn't on board

with you running, you would stop.

I am no longer on board
with you running.

NEWSCASTER: We have an update in
perhaps the most surprising race

in the local Philadelphia
elections tonight.

District 12 remains too close
to call with long-time incumbent

Solomon Brown ahead
only four percentage points

- of challenger Randall Pearson.
- How you doing, cuz?

"Keep the Chardonnay coming"
is how I'm doing.

NEWSCASTER: Councilman Brown
is leading 52%...

Well, one way or another,
it'll all be over soon.

(SIGHS): Yeah, it'll all be over soon.

NEWSCASTER: Councilman Solomon
Brown, a 14-year incumbent,

- first made a name for himself...
- Here you go.

Oh, I was not built for politics.

This is way too tense for me.

- Yeah, my undershirt is fully soaked.
- Stop.

NEWSCASTER: Brown voted
yes to Proposition 27...

...which brought better housing
programs to his district.

Big life moment for you, little brother.

What's going through your mind?

- Honestly?
- Yeah.

You remember when Dad and I went
to D.C. to visit Howard?

- Of course.
- Been thinking about that a lot.

You? What's on your mind?

What's on my mind? Uh, John
Stamos, mostly. Ex-excuse me.

John Stamos.

Hi.

Hi. Oh, uh...

'Cause I'm not,
I'm not sure if I'm supposed

to be talking to you,
or giving you space,

so I'm just gonna talk to you
from multiple feet away

and sort of split the difference.

(EXHALES)

- Kevin...

...I can't do this.

Tobe, hey, what's up?

TOBY: Hey. Look, uh,
Kate has been crying

for, like, five minutes straight.

Is there, like, a twin cure
for something like this?

Um, is it-is it good crying
or bad crying?

- (SNIFFLES)
- Unclear.

- How's it going over there?
- Unclear.

Hey, look, Toby, I got to go.
I'll call you back.

- How are we looking?
- Well, we're behind,

but, uh, whatever happens, dude,

what you did in these last
seven weeks, it's unheard of.

Yeah.

It's been the longest
seven weeks of my life.

- RANDALL: Yeah.

Get up, come on. Annie's up.

She doesn't need to see you
sleeping on the couch.

Ah, crap. I wanted to be back
in Philly by 9:00.

You're still running?

After last night?

After-after Jae-won said
you couldn't win?

He didn't say I couldn't win. He
said the numbers aren't there.

Well, they're somewhere, Beth.

I can't just give up on
my district, not after all this.

Oh, your district.
What about your family?

Will always be my priority, okay?

Look, I even thought
about Tess last night.

I, uh, I ordered Love, Ellen.

It's the book
Ellen DeGeneres's mom Betty

wrote about Ellen coming out.

I'm gonna listen to it
on my way to Philly.

You cannot audiobook your way
through our daughter's life.

(SIGHS) Look, the next seven
weeks are gonna be tough.

I know.

But the people we've met
in that district

over the past few months,
they deserve my best...

There is no "we" in this
anymore, Randall.

I will stay out of your way,
but you're on your own, babe.

You want to call Beth

Yeah.

YOUNG RANDALL: It scares me.

The idea of, you know...

doing something big with my life.

You know what I get like

Oh, it's like...

about balancing their future career

with their future wife and kids.

(CHUCKLES)

I-I like to plan ahead.

- Well, are we rich?

they went crazy for our stuff.

Yeah, well, we're so old to them,

I-I don't know. I think I sold it.

No. No, it was marked, uh...
it was marked "DNS."

Yeah, it was donations.
Yeah, I-I sold it.

One less trip to the Goodwill.

No, the...

"DNS" does not stand for "donations."

It stands for "do not sell."

That box was home
to my original complete set

of 1977 Star Wars action figures.

I'm sorry.

- It was an accident, babe.
- You should've asked.

- You should've asked. (EXHALES)
- Wait, but, babe,

- Whoa.

Whoa. They are not just toys.

They are action figures, first of all.

Action figures

from house to house
after my parents got divorced,

into my college dorm room,
through six L.A. apartments

so that someday I could
hand them down to my kid.

But now...

- Don't.
- Aah!

KEVIN: I'm sorry that we were late.

Ah, man. It's my fault.

I was slow getting out
of my apartment this morning.

Well, actually, it's our apartment.

We, uh... we're living together in sin.

Yeah.

I do show a record
for a Nicholas Pearson.

That's great.

But before
I can give you any information,

I need proof
that you're his next of kin.

How about nephew?
Nephew's a big deal now, right?

Think of Game of Thrones.

Right, Joffrey was next of kin

to the super-handsome, fit,
blonde, uncle guy.

Jamie was never in line for the throne.

Joffrey ascended

after his adoptive father
Robert Baratheon died.

Without documentation,

you're gonna need someone
official to write a letter,

authorizing release of the records.

Could be military personnel,

a historian, a member of Congress.

How about a celebrity that was once
dunk-tanked on The Today Show?

No. Okay.

I might be able to get a letter
from a congressman.

You might?

Yeah, I might have
dated one for a while.

You might have?

Wow.

MAN (ON RADIO): And we're back
with Councilman Sol Brown.

Now I've been seeing
some Randall Pearson signs

all around the neighborhood.

Hell, yeah, you have.

BROWN: I can't say I've noticed that.

I'm just saying,
I haven't seen his family

in church with him
at Reverend Hawley's services.

I'm so lucky to have
my supportive wife Nancy

at my side, helping me stay focused.

Not sure my opponent is as lucky.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Look, I know this is the last thing

you want to hear right now,
but maybe it's time

you and the girls start
showing up to events again.

Really?

Just saying, I'm coming off as
a family man without a family.

Do you know what the girls got
for Christmas, Family Man?

I do, 'cause I went out

and bought all their presents
without you.

- I'm really sorry. I...
- And Tess is moody all the time,

I don't even know why.
I don't know if it's 'cause

she's trying
to figure out her sexuality,

or-or because she just
discovered Nirvana on Spotify.

Either way, I'd love
to discuss it with my husband,

but he's off in Philly, glad-handing

for no good reason,
because last I checked,

the polls said you weren't even
close to winning.

Now, are you really mad at me, Beth?

Or are you mad that I got something

that I care about right now
and you don't?

'Cause if memory serves,

I played Stay-At-Home Superdad
all last year,

and you did not hear me complaining.

You know what?
I'm gonna walk out of this room

before you say something else
you're gonna regret.

You do what you got to do.

KEVIN: Congressman, thank you
so much for meeting with us.

I appreciate it. You know, my brother,

uh, currently running for city council.

He's going absolutely insane
with the schedule. I can only

- imagine what yours is like.
- Yes, thank you so much

for coming, Andy.

I didn't know
you were living in New York now.

Well, it's... it's, uh,
pretty recent, really.

Yeah, pretty recent. Your Bo...
Her boxes just came in

- from Chicago, like, last week.
- Yeah.

So, haven't really had a chance
to even unpack them yet.

(CHUCKLES)

Well, that's great.

So, you said you needed help
with getting some military

- records or something?
- Yes.

Well, we've been on this journey,

literally to Vietnam and back,
looking for Kevin's uncle.

And we heard that with a little push

from a member of Congress, we, um...

(CHUCKLES) Oh.

I thought when you said
you desperately needed help,

it was something a little more serious.

- Oh.
- Oh.

Oh, I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean to...

No. Sorry. It's fine. I can try
to get the records from the VA.

Maybe I'll just shoot them
a quick e-mail.

That should do the trick, right?

Sorry. I...

I really thought enough time had passed.

Andy...

My office will formulate a
formal request for the records.

Thank you. Appreciate that.

Thank you for your time.

- Well, that worked.
- Yeah. Look...

That guy's carrying around
some serious baggage,

Zoe, what...
what's the story with you two?

Were you two serious?

I mean, we were.

Uh, we dated for a couple of years.

Uh, we talked about moving to New York.

I... I'm on the edge
of my seat here, Zoe.

Well, he kept on sending
apartment listings,

and, well, none of them felt right.

- Hmm.
- And, uh,

well, I realized the apartments
weren't the problem,

so I e-mailed him saying

I thought the relationship
had run its course.

You dated a guy for two years,

and you broke up with him...
with an e-mail?

I mean, I didn't deal with it perfectly.

It was a long time ago.

I got to run.

If I'm late for meeting Beth
for cookie baking...

- Going now?
- ...she'll flip.

Apparently, your brother's been AWOL.

I don't want to be on
the receiving end of that mood.

Yeah. All right.

Bye.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Hey, uh, before you leave...

Mm-mmm. Nope, not tonight.

It is New Year's Eve, my friend,
and I'm on my way

to get a boo-berry pie
to eat with my girls

- when the clock strikes 12:00.
- Boo-berry pie?

It's technically blueberry,
but when Beth was three,

- she called it "boo-berry."
- Huh.

Come on, man. Nothing for "boo-berry"?

Anyway, Beth's family used
to have one every New Year's.

She said the new year don't start

- till she get her boo-berry on.
- I found it.

What we've been looking for.

Six years ago, Sol Brown was
arrested for drunk driving,

but he was never charged.

Randall, he paid off the police
to have the charges dropped.

And then he paid the paper
to have the story buried.

That's major.

We should release this
first thing in the morning.

How do you like them boo-berries?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hello. Uh, one blueberry pie, please.

Ooh, I'm sorry.

We just sold the last one.

Okay, then.

Um... could you make me one?

My wife requires one
every New Year's Eve.

I'll wait, however long it takes.

I wish I could, sir, but we bake
everything in the morning.

- Next in line.
- It's just, just one blueberry.

- I can't. I'm sorry.
- It's for my wife..

I wish I could help you, sweetie.
I can't.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Everything okay, Mr. Pearson?

Reverend Hawley.

Hi.

Um, no, I'm fine. I just, uh...

standing here in the middle of a diner

at 7:00 on New Year's Eve,

wondering if I'm gonna go down
in history

as the worst husband and father
of all time,

who also lost an election
by a landslide.

- Well, you could drop out.
- (LAUGHS)

I'm sure my good friend Sol
would, uh, throw you a party.

(CHUCKLING)

I asked Sol to fix the lights
at the rec center,

and he didn't do it.

Then a little girl who reminds
me of my little girls got hurt.

I just wanted to give the people
something better.

I thought they deserved that.

You know, my father once told me
that I was gonna be a great man.

And my whole life,
in the back of my mind,

I always wanted to be one.

I'm starting to think it might be harder

to be a good man than a great one.

I'm sitting on something

that could change the whole game, and...

(QUIETLY): It's just not the way
I want to do it, man.

(CHUCKLES)

I'm sorry, man.

You just wanted to say "hi"
on New Year's Eve.

I didn't mean to take all your time.

Hey, you know, I give a...
a lot of death-bed advice.

Comes with the job, I guess.

Death-bed advice.

That's the gig.

Act in a way that'll make you
smile when you're old and gray

and lying under a pale pink
nursing-home blanket,

thinking about... the life you lived.

You do that,

you'll be the man your father wanted.

And give this to your wife.

I got the last blueberry pie.

Happy New Year, Mr. Pearson.

Happy New Year's to you,
Reverend Hawley.

God bless you, sir.

- Somebody say, "Amen".
- CONGREGATION: Amen!

- Amen!
- Amen!

Well, that was unexpected.

(RANDALL SNORTS)

Hey, Tobe?

TOBY: Yeah?

Wait. You can tell these
aren't yours from over there?

(SIGHS): Yeah.

A man knows his Chewbacca.

Where'd you get them?

eBay.

I tried to get yours back
from Gabe, but...

(SIGHS) God knows I tried. I mean...

I tried things you would be
incredibly uncomfortable with.

Those are pretty cool.
They must've cost you a fortune.

Eh.

Yeah, I know.

Babe,

we're starting a new family.

Our family.

And, no, we don't have

all of your action figures to pass down.

And, no, we don't have
my handmade football stadium.

But, babe, we come with us.

You don't need to pass down
your favorite thing to your son,

because I know
with every part of me that you

are gonna be our son's favorite thing.

- You.
- Mm.

You hear me?

Okay. (GASPS) I got to go back

to my laptop. They're selling
an original Boba Fett

in, like, the next five.

- Go. Go.
- Going!

We have an update in perhaps
the most surprising race

in the local Philadelphia
elections tonight...

- Tobe.
- Okay. Come on in!

Babe.

- Oh.
- Huh?

And... ta-da.

♪ ♪

What...

Well, I called Kevin,

and he looked through
a bunch of photos and found one

of the stadium your dad built for you.

♪ ♪

I took that photo to a...

weird little man named Edwin

who builds dollhouses,

and then he built this replica.

And, for the record,

I'm going to be
our kid's second favorite thing.

You're the first.

Anyhow, I...

I hope you like it.

But it's okay if you don't.

(CHUCKLES)

Oh, no, is this going sideways on me?

ZOE: Kevin,

I can't do this.

(PHONE RINGS)

Tobe, hey, what's up?

Hey. Look, uh,
Kate has been crying for, like,

five minutes straight.

Is there, like, a twin cure
for something like this?

Is it good crying or bad crying?

TOBY: Unclear.

(SNIFFLES, CRYING)

How's it going there?

Unclear.

Hey, Tobe, listen,
I got to go, all right?

- I'll c... I'll call you back.
- (STAMMERS, EXHALES) All right.

Is this a-a good cry?

Yeah.

It's a good cry.

JAE-WON: Hey, um,
whatever happens, dude,

what you did
in these last seven weeks...

it's unheard of.

Yeah.

It's been the longest
seven weeks of my life.

Excuse me.

Yeah.

Any word yet?

Sounds like we're not gonna find
out who won till after midnight.

- (EXHALES) Okay.
- Yeah.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, guys.

Could we all gather around, please?

Listen, I just wanted to take a moment

to thank you all for being here.

I know these last few weeks, um...

I pushed you.

But I pushed myself, too.

Doors got slammed in our faces,
and we knocked again.

Flyers got torn down and thrown out,

and we put up new ones.

Whatever happened to us
in these tough days,

we just kept pushing.

And we did it because we believed

in what our future here could be.

We were given four words...

"The numbers aren't there"...

and we turned those
into four new ones...

"Too close to call."

(CHUCKLING)

So, um, go home proud.

We're not gonna find out
what happened tonight.

And I have a feeling
that we could all use the rest.

So, thank you.

Thank you, everyone!

- (WHOOPS)
- (APPLAUSE)

- Come on.
- All right.

- Proud of you, man.
- Thank you.

- Appreciate it, man. Okay.
- I'll call you.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

RANDALL: Thank you very much, sir.

Appreciate you being here.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

I have pepper spray.

Kevin, relax.

It's just me.

- Oh.
- Wait, you carry pepper spray?

No.

Listen, Kevin, you...

you're one of the only people that knows

what my dad...

and, um...

I had three locks
on my apartment door in Chicago,

bars on the windows,

not because I was actually worried

about someone breaking in, but...

peace of mind was...

taken from me.

I'm sorry. I can't even imagine that.

It's a lot for me to...

give up my own safe space.

More than it is for most people.

And, uh...

the idea of giving that up,

it's, uh...

it's why I've never lived
with anyone before.

We don't have to live together, then.

You know? Uh, or you don't
even have to unpack, actually.

I'll just... I'll walk over your
stuff for the rest of my life.

It'll be good for my calves.

I want to live with you.

I do.

And, uh...

Because even though you,

you just might be the most pushy
person I have ever met,

I...

I think I like what you're pushing for.

I'm in love with you.

And I want John Stamos back.

"Jack, Last one. C.K."

Who's C.K.?

Let me see that.

"C.K."

Like Clark Kent.

My dad knew Nicky was alive.

Why would he lie to us?

(EXHALES)

Well, there's a return address.

Bradford, Pennsylvania.

You think he's still there?

I wonder what my father
would think about this.

About me running.

About me having found you.

About all of it.

There's so much he didn't get to see.

KATE: So, our son is officially the size

of a tomato.

Uh, to-mah-to, please. It's classier.

And our son is gonna be...

Ooh. 'Kay.

RANDALL: So much stuff
he never got to share in.

You sure you don't want to go find
your brother's name on the wall?

No.

No, too sad for me.

RANDALL: Sometimes I feel like
this big ol' puppet, you know?

He's just pulling the strings
from up there,

just tugging me around
wherever he wants me to go.

(CHUCKLES)

I don't know.

I think back on all these moments

and all these memories,

and sometimes it feels like
there's been a plan for my life.

Like, from the beginning.

Maybe everyone feels that way.

Maybe I'm not that special,

You're very special, babe.

Thank you.

You're also very tired.
