- Previously on This Is Us...
- My ex-husband,.

who I haven't seen in 12 years,

shows up at my doorstep unannounced.

What are you doing, lurking
outside of my apartment?

Can we go get a coffee?

I'm engaged.

I was supposed

to end up in the Super Bowl,

not watch it like you guys.

What's your point, Kevin?

I'm gonna go to Sophie's.

- Best Pearson Super Bowl ever.
- Oh, my God!

- I'm going downstairs.
- No, no, no, Jack, Kevin's not here.

He's not here. He was
with Sophie last night.

Man, it has been a day, I'm telling you.

Probably my fault, though.
You know, I mean,

I keep putting myself in these
obviously terrible situations

because I'm so desperate
to have this crazy

love story like what my parents had.

But maybe it's just not
in the cards for me.

Here.

You take that. I got to concentrate.

_

I can't sleep.

You can't sleep, huh?

What's wrong, bud, why can't you sleep?

- I miss my sheep.
- Your sheep?

Oh.

You mean, like, the mobile
that hangs above your crib?

Those sheep?

Bud, I-I don't know what
Mommy did with those,

and Mommy's not awake
right now, so, um, hey.

What noise does-does a sheep make?

- Bah.
- Bah?

Come on, you can do better than that.

How about, how about
if we try calling the sheep?

Maybe they'll come to us, huh?

Well, kiddo, if the sheep
aren't gonna come to us,

maybe we got to go find them.

Yeah.

Hey, uh...

Hey, Kevin, you ready? You in it?

- Uh...
- You're not in it. What's up?

Well, it's-it's... look, it's
this new ending, you know.

Um, I don't want to step
on your toes, obviously.

Oh... look, this is my
dance space, all right?

Cool-ass endings... your dance space.

It'sDirty Dancing. I
thought you'd be a fan of...

- Oh, right, yeah.
- Remember?

Wow, anyway, um, look,
I just, I just feel

like there was real resolution
with the scene we already shot.

Oh, God. What am I doing?

You're right. I shouldn't
be questioning you.

Obviously. Um, I'm sorry.
I had a hell of a day, man.

And I'm... I'm sorry.

Want to talk about it?

Can I? So I go on this date, right?

It's amazing, it's extraordinary.

Anyway, it turns out
I'm her hall pass. Right?

Kevin, you know what, we're
kinda on the clock here,

and I'm getting the gist that
the date didn't go very well,

so let me just get to the part

where I build you back up again, okay?

- Yeah.
- All right, walk with me.

Now, look, I can't fix your love life,

but I can help you understand
my philosophy on movie endings.

Okay.

Hey, should I bring him his phone?

- Some Sophie keeps calling.
- I don't know.

Can you get me another
battery for this, please?

Uh, yeah, sure.

- I don't know. That's...
- Trust me, Kevin.

This is the ending everyone wants.

And they still won't see it coming.

- Huh.
- Um, Mr. Pearson, sir?

- Yeah.
- Your phone keeps ringing.

- Oh.
- She says it's important.

- I didn't want to interrupt.
- Take it.

- You sure?
- Definitely.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

_

Hey. Soph, you okay?

Everything all right?

She's gone, Kev. My mom.

What?

She died yesterday.

Kevin.

- Hey, Claire.
- Hey.

Thought you'd be watching
the Super Bowl with your dad.

- No, we had a pretty bad fight.
- Oh.

Plus, I'm not really feeling like
watching the game right now.

Right. You still moping over that leg?

Cheer up, kid.

Football isn't the be-all end-all.

There are better things ahead for you.

I just know it. You hear me?

Hey.

Where you guys headed?

- Party in the woods.
- Yeah.

Sounds good.

- All right. See you later, Mom.
- All right.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Soph, I'm so sorry.

It's weird that I called, right?

No. No, of course not.

Grant... you know, that's
my fiancé's name, Grant...

he's, he's been really great
with all the logistical stuff,

but, you know, both
his parents are s-still...

Soph? Hey, okay, Soph,
I got one for you.

I got one for you. You ready?

Ready.

He starts a cider-brewing company

and he calls it "How do
you like them apples?"

Well done, Kevin. Thank you.

Yeah.

I should go.

Hey, Soph?

I'm really sorry.

She was a force of nature.

Yeah, she was.

Thanks.

Kev, come on. We have to go in.

It's gonna be so annoying.

It's your mom's birthday weekend.

And we haven't been home
since our weird wedding dinner.

We're never here.

She's gonna have a million questions

about my acting career.

She's probably got my headshot hung up

like they do at the cleaners.

Come on. It's her son's
first TV appearance.

Let the woman revel.

Come on. Please, I don't... I
don't even know what I did...

"Ugh"? That's a nice hello.

Hold on.

Hey, Ma?

Hi, guys. You guys got here early.

Hi. What a surprise.

- Hey, sweetheart.
- Hi.

What's Kate's problem?

She's on the phone with Marc.

- Hey, guys.
- Oh, she's still dating

- that greaseball?
- I wasn't expecting

- you guys until tomorrow.
- My class got canceled,

so we just decided to come early.

- So happy birthday.
- Aw. Thank you.

What's with the shrine to
Randall's holey underwear?

See? I've been telling him all morning

- that he needs new undies.
- Please stop saying "undies".

I got to go to class.

I-I'll see you for your birthday dinner.

Wait... what were you saying before,

about the weird dreams?

Just midterm stress.
Don't worry about it.

Stop touching my underwear, Kev.

Your undies, you mean?

You guys, I'm so sorry.

I actually have to finish
getting ready to go to work.

Uh, well, at least tell
me what you thought.

About what?

I was onDays of Our Lives.

What?

No, sweetheart, you told
me your line got cut.

I mean, yeah, but my
face was still in it.

Oh, honey. Wha... ?

It's fine. They made me look really pale

'cause my character had leukemia.

Well, are there gonna be any reruns?

Doubt it.

Kev, I'm so sorry. I didn't...

You know what? I do have to go to work,

but promise me you'll tell me
everything about it tonight?

Yeah, of course.

Okay.

Anyone home at your house?

- Hello.
- Oh...

There's my beautiful daughter.

- Hey.
- Hi.

And there he is, my beautiful superstar

- son-in-law.
- Oh, my God.

Oh!

I saw you onDays.

So convincing I could've cried.

And still movie star handsome
under all that yellow makeup.

Well, you know, they cut my line.

So? You go back and get one next time.

Yeah.

Hey. Give me your eyes.

- Never settle.
- Never will.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I'm so proud of you.

LAX. Terminal 4?

Uh, yeah. Yeah.

This party sucks.

- Movies?
- Movies.

And doughnuts.

Yes.

I love you so much.

I love you so much.

- You're up?
- Why are your texts so formal?

Whatever.

Did I catch you on set?

No. Uh, I finished
my reshoot last night.

I'm actually not in L.A.

- Oh. Well, where are you?
- Home.

Or, well, what used to be home, anyway.

I'm in Pittsburgh.

Doing something totally stupid.

Or I don't... Maybe
not. Maybe it's so crazy

that it's actually sane.

I'm going to a funeral.

Whose?

Sophie's mom died.

Oh, damn. You good?

Who knows?

What about you?

Someone broke into our house last night.

What? Is everyone okay?

Yeah. Everybody's fine.

Please don't tell Mom...

Okay, I've got Fresca,
I've got Prosecco.

It's Fresecco time, my darlings.

I would like to propose an illegal toast

to the future star.

Thank you.

Cheers.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Mmm.

And speaking of stars...

Mom, what did you do?

I got two words for
you: aurora borealis.

You and I are gonna
see the northern lights.

Mom, did you fix the pipes?

What? Pipes shmipes.

We're finally going, baby.

It took two years
to save that money, Mom.

- It's...
- You always do this.

Wait, hey. Soph, where are you going?

- I need some air.
- Babe?

Well,

at least we made it half an
hour before fighting this time.

I was hoping we could
have a minute alone anyway.

Um...

I have to ask you something.

- Spill it.
- Well, um,

obviously, I couldn't give
Sophie her dream wedding,

but I'm hoping I can give her the ring

that she's always wanted.

Her grandmother's emerald ring?

She said that you
were saving it for her.

And now we'll hear a few words

from Claire's daughter Sophie.

My mother was, um,

impossible.

I know I'm not supposed to
say that at her funeral, but...

she was.

She couldn't sit still,
in any sense of the phrase.

Even when she was diagnosed with MS,

she refused... to stop moving.

She never settled.

When I finally got

my, um, my dream apartment in Brooklyn,

she came to visit and
tour the neighborhood.

And, um, we found this coffee shop.

It was a real hole in the wall, but...

it became our spot.

Every time she visited and even
when she couldn't fly anymore,

I would always bring her
fresh beans from there

every time I came home.

I was there when I found
out that she had died.

I was being rude to this poor clerk

over how they were out
of their house blend.

You know, I mean, how do you run out

of your house blend,
right? It was like...

I was just grumpy from
the night shift and...

What I wouldn't give to
go back to that moment.

That moment before...

... when she was still alive and
my biggest concern was coffee.

Sorry.

Looking back, I guess I
could have just settled

for the French roast.

And now I can never go
back to that coffee shop

ever again.

That place where my mom and
I had some of our best talks.

Our best laughs.

Some really phenomenal fights.

'Cause that's the place that
I found out that she was gone.

Please join us at Claire's house

at 2:00 p.m. for a
reception in her honor.

All family and friends are welcome.

Well, we checked all the closets,

and I don't, I don't know where it is.

But don't you worry.

It's all gonna be okay. Let's, uh,

let's call reinforcements, okay?

Come on.

Bec.

Sorry to have to wake
you up to ask, but...

Hmm?

You are the most beautiful sick lady

I have ever seen.

And you had to wake
me up to tell me that?

Actually, no, um,

the mobile that was over Kevin's crib.

Do you know where it is?

Oh, no, that's gone, Jack.

We gave all the, the crib
stuff to the Goodwill.

- Mm-hmm.
- Damn it.

Daddy?

How aboutGood Will Hunting?

Yeah.

I've heard good things.

You got a little, uh, face
on your crumbs right there.

- Let me get it for you.
- Yeah?

Mm-hmm.

So you want my mother's
ring to give to Soph?

That ring has a story.

Now, don't spread this around,
but my parents fell in love

while they were both
going through divorces,

which was not common in that day.

Before they could get married,
my father was drafted to Korea.

Now, he tried to give my
mother that ring before he left,

but she refused it.

She said, wait till you get back.

So he took the ring with him,
and whenever he felt hopeless,

he looked at it

and he found the determination
to make it through.

When he came back, they got married.

- 50 years.
- Wow.

Yeah.

Kev, you're gonna have huge success,

and that's gonna take
you lots of places.

Is-is that a yes?

I love you, kiddo.

But I can't give you that ring.

Not yet.

Your marriage is too
new, and you're too young.

You got to earn it, baby doll.

- Hey.
- Hi.

I would ask how you're doing, but I...

Yeah, no, I, uh...

I can't believe you came.

How could I not come?

Are you, um, are you

headed back right now? I'm
sure you got so much going on.

What-what if I-I told you I was thinking

about maybe coming to the reception?

What would you say?

I would say, uh, "Oh..."

"Okay, that... Good".

Good.

'Cause I'm standing on
the front lawn right now.

Soph, I'm looking at you, and I-I'm...

I brought you these
doughnuts from that place

that you like so much, you know, the...

I mean, I had two of
them on the way over here,

I'm not gonna lie to you, but
I-I saved the powdered ones

'cause I remember how
much you love those.

Wasn't sure if I should come in.

No, that's probably not a good idea.

Get me out of here?

Yeah. Yeah, come on.

- Thanks for this.
- Yeah, of course.

Is there anywhere
you want to go, or... ?

No.

I don't know.

Okay.

You do what's in your
heart, son, you'll be fine.

Aw!

Oh, come on, it was almost over.

- What?
- Boo!

Bel Air Dollar Theater patrons,

we are currently experiencing
technical difficulties.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Please take this time to help yourself

to anything at the concession
stand, free of charge.

Let's eat.

That your grandmother's ring?

Um, no.

It's a nice ring, pretty. He's...

Grant's got great taste.

He never really got to know her.

I mean, they met a few times, but...

she was so sick.

It's crazy I'm gonna
spend the rest of my life

with someone who never really knew her.

You know, at the funeral
today, I was about to lose it.

I know.

I found you there and...

I locked in on you.

Grief is a tricky thing, you know?

You... you just can't prepare

for how it's gonna make you feel or...

how you'll handle it.

Sometimes you just got to grab onto...

whatever's around you just to...

... survive.

Plus, we have a history

of getting each other through funerals.

Okay, I've got one. You ready?

If you got one, I'm ready.

He decides he has to get away,

as far away as he can,

so he becomes an ice fisherman

- in Alaska.
- Oh, yes.

And he never talks to
another human being again.

Wow. Wow.

Well done. That's good.

Soph, can I take you somewhere?

Okay.

Here we are.

You remember this place?

Of course I do.

How could I forget?

Yeah, for the longest time, I tried to.

- Oh! Sorry.
- Ooh.

- Ah.
- Ugh.

I swear...

You know, I...

I'm gonna be sick, yeah.

Maybe we should've waited
till they fixed the projector.

- Nah.
- What do you mean, "nah"?

- Now we'll never know how it ended.
- Yeah, but,

until it blacked out, wasn't
it, like, the perfect movie?

I mean, the real ending

could never have been good enough.

This way, we can imagine
the perfect ending

to the perfect movie for
the rest of our lives.

Hmm, I don't know, I still
would have liked to have seen it.

Okay.

I got an ending for you. Ready?

Ready.

Will realizes that he's in
love with the best friend,

the tall guy, and
they run away together.

The whole thing was a gay love story.

What?

Let's never watch the real ending.

Never.

- Brrr.
- You cold? Lets go inside.

M'lady.

Your chariot awaits.

I never thought I could come back here.

My childhood

ended right here.

For the longest time,
this whole... place,

this whole town,

all I ever wanted to do was just...

run away from it.

Then a little time passed.

And I started to remember
the good parts about it,

like, uh, how we used
to come out here and...

make each other laugh.

How you were always such a messy eater.

- What?
- I mean, literally, like, sometimes,

I swear to God, you were, like,
actively trying to avoid your mouth.

- Oh, come on.
- I'm serious.

Look at, look at you... exhibit "A".

What? I... oh, I'm so sorry

we can't all eat like
a delicate little bird.

Okay.

This place still makes me sad.

But I'm not afraid of it anymore.

You're gonna be able to go
back to that coffee shop,

Soph, you will.

It just takes a little time.

Yeah.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah, anything.

Did you ever watch the end of the movie?

- Did you?
- No. No, never.

I never did. Did you?

No, me either.

Huh.

Son of a bitch, he stole my line.

Wow.

Yeah.

That was better than I
could've possibly imagined.

Yeah.

And here I thought I had
the whole thing figured out

with that cider company thing.

Stop.

Kev?

Yeah?

It's time for me to go home.

Okay.

Well...

Well.

I'll see you next time someone dies.

I'm already looking forward to it.

Um...

Can you wait here for just a sec?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Um, I was, um, I was
going through her stuff,

and I found this.

She was always rooting for you.

She was your biggest fan.

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

It's okay.

Kev, thank you for coming.

Always.

I should go.

So I had to go to three
stores to find Fresca. Eh?

I was this close to settling for Fanta,

but I knew you wouldn't approve,

and, uh...

we don't settle.

I'm, uh, I'm just sticking
to Fresca these days,

so I hope you don't mind.

Well, Claire, I did it.

I made it.

I got a show, I did a couple of movies.

I became a star.

Just like you knew I would.

I didn't know I would, but
you did. You knew I would.

Man, I really messed things
up with Sophie, though.

A couple times, actually.

And I have a feeling that, uh,

you knew I would do that, too.

You know, the sad part about
it is, I'm actually ready now.

I'm, I'm sober.

And I am steady.

I never earned that ring.

God, I wish I had another crack at it.

It's too late.

Enough of that. Anyway...

This is for you, okay?

And, uh...

Oh. I almost forgot this.

There you go.

Goodbye, Claire.

I'm not doing that.

That's super weird.

Leave a message for Kate.

Hey, Kate, uh, I'm about ready
to hop on a flight back to L.A.

It's been a tough couple of days.

Um... I was thinking, when I land,

you mind if I just
come over and see Jack?

You know what? I... I'm
just coming over, okay?

Oh, great.

This is exactly what I need right now.

I'm just here to see Jack.

Well, he's not here.

Kate and Jack went to a
retreat, Toby's at work.

I'm just here to walk Audio.

Oh. Hmm.

Okay.

I was gonna make tea if you want some.

Sure. Yeah, no, that, that sounds great.

Thank you.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Oh, yeah. I am fabulous.

The fifth guy in a row
just broke up with me

because he just can't see
us having a future together,

and I spent the day picking
up my best friend's dog's poop.

So, that's my life at 33.

I have never been broken up with before.

Why would you even say
that to me right now?

No, I s... That's...

Yes, that-that sounded
completely insensitive.

What I was getting
at, you know, was, um,

I don't get dumped because
I'm always the first one

to cut and run.

When things get, you
know, complicated or, uh,

God forbid, too deep.

Recommendation?

From a-a movie star bathed in privilege?

Why not?

I don't think you should
look at yourself as the person

who always gets left.

You should look at
yourself as the person

who's willing to stay and fight.

It's a good thing.

I wish I had more of that in me.

Sorry, but your mobile is gone, bud.

I miss my sheep.

Yeah, I know, but the
sheep are gone, Kev.

Look, sometimes we lose things.

Things that we love.

And it makes us feel sad.

Really sad.

And I know right now it feels like

the worst thing in the world.

But I promise you,

you're gonna find
something else to love.

_

Like, I'll bet...

I'll bet Mr. Tiger here...

Mr. Tiger,

he would love to sleep
next to you tonight.

How does that sound?

_

Hey, Randall.

Hey, Kev, uh...

I lied, man.

I need a catch.

Actually, you're
kind of doing me a favor,

listening to me right now.

You know, I'm kind of in
the middle of a whole thing.

It's been a hell of a week.

Actually, you know what?
I was thinking about, uh,

you know, maybe taking a trip.

You know? Going somewhere,
getting out of town,

clear my head?

Yeah.

I was thinking the same thing myself.

Um, this is kind of crazy

because I was basically
just there, but, uh,

you want to go to the cabin?

Yeah. I think some
nature would do me good.

Hey, let's, uh, let's invite Kate, yeah?

Uh, yeah.

Hey. Where's the birthday girl?

Hey, Mom.

Sorry I, uh, spent the
night at Sophie's...

Dinner's canceled.

- What's wrong?
- I'm worried about Kate.

We got in a big fight and
then she rode off with Marc

to the cabin and then she
just called me, crying.

I think she's in trouble, Kev.

We have to go get her.

Uh, okay. Go-go get your stuff together,

and I'm calling Randall right now.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Something's wrong with Kate.
Um, I'll explain in the car.

Just be ready in 20. We're
coming to pick you up.

- All right?
- O-Okay.

I-I'll be downstairs.

Hey, Kev. Um, uh, what's up?

You know, now's not
really a good time. Um...

Why? What's the matter?

Uh, well, I'm about two seconds away

from my marriage completely imploding.

Oh, Kate, I'm so sorry.

Listen, I got Randall on the other line.

Life's kind of sucking
for him, too, right now.

You mind if I patch him through?

- Yeah.
- All right.

Hey, Randall, I got Kate.

She's kind of in a bad
way, too, actually.

Sad three.

Sad three.

Dad?

We have a problem.
