Previously, on
"This Is Us"...

JAE-WON: Today's, uh,
bulletin,

it's kind of going viral.

RANDALL:
Well, viral how?

[garbled speech]

I'm doing this
for William Hill.

Because you all
were his family,

which means
you're my family, too.

It's twins, Kevin.

I'm all in, Madison.

Whatever you need,
I am all in.

I think
I just got the part.

I mean, pending a-a good meeting
with the director.

[laughing]:
I-I got the part.

KATE:
Um, my talk with Ellie today

brought up some stuff for me.

When I was 18,
I was in

a really,
really bad relationship.

And when it ended...

So you're telling me,
that this boyfriend of yours...

Got me pregnant,
yeah.

And I was nowhere near ready
to be a mom.

And I could not...

Ooh, I could not be tied to that
guy for the rest of my life.

You know, so...

I had an abortion.

And it was,
I mean, the toughest decision

I've ever made
in my life.

But I don't regret it.

But I made it alone, and

you know,
I've lived with it alone.

Wait. What are your eyes doing?
Are you judging me?

No.

No, of course not.

I'm just trying
to wrap my head around the...

Uh, why did it take you so long
to tell me this?

Well, it's not exactly something

that comes up
naturally in a conversation.

Actually, it is.

It took us two years
to have Jack.

That's two years of talking
about pregnancy all the time.

Toby, you don't understand.

I was 18 years old,

and that decision was wrapped up
in the darkest,

lowest, most painful...
time of my life.

It was, like, the most painful
relationship of my life.

And all I wanted to do,
I wanted to lock it up,

you know, and I didn't want
to think about it.

I didn't want
to think about him.

He was so cruel...
to me.

I would like you
to tell me his name,

and then, I would like
to find him,

and I would like to kill him.

- Babe.
- I want to kill him.

[laughing]:
You're...

Thank you.
That's very sweet.

You know what?

He's in the past,
it's all in the past.

- It's...
- Is it, though? If it was

truly in the past, then why
would it take you four years

to tell me about it?

Look at that.
Changing table is built.

The bunny tapestry is hung.
I'm telling you.

Natasha is going to plotz
when she sees our nursery.

You are obsessed
with impressing this nanny.

I thought we were interviewing
her, not the other way around.

Yeah, no, babe,
you don't understand.

Natasha is, like, um...
She's, like, nanny royalty.

Okay? Timberlake said
that he and Jess...

They wept when she left
to go to another family.

Now that's what
my family deserves, does it not?

A nanny that makes
Timberlake weep?

- [phone vibrating]
- Like a little baby.

Yeah, what's up?

Yeah, okay.

No. Hold on, hold on.
No, no, no, no, no.

That is not
what I committed to.

Then I'm out.

Yeah, you know why.

I'm not having
this conversation.

Goodbye.

Read about these, uh...
What were they?

These, uh... these, uh...
these baby monitor socks

- that they have. They...
- Kevin.

What the hell just happened
on the phone?

Uh, th-that was, uh,
just my agent.

They, uh, they're moving

the filming of the movie
to Vancouver, 'cause it's safer.

I guess
there's less COVID, so...

And that's bad because...?

Because it's two weeks
of filming, right?

Plus, two weeks quarantine,

which means
I'd have to leave L.A. tomorrow.

Oh.

Yeah, so, I-I, you know,
I can't do it.

Wait. Put that down.

Let's do the math for a second.

Four weeks away
puts you back here...

a solid five weeks
before the babies are due.

You have worked
so hard on this movie.

You have put up with so much
crap from that director.

This can't all be for nothing.

I don't know.
I don't know.

Go on and pack.

Yeah.

No, Mom, I didn't realize
the camera was still on.

Uh, there's something
I need to show you.

I don't know if I would have
said that while closing a door,

wearing a naked-man shirt.

Yeah. Uh, you know the,
um...

the form we set up
on our website for cons...

for, uh, constituents
to reach out?

[groans]

Aah. Uh, watch the hair.

- Yeah.
- [sighs]

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

The, um...
the form on our website

for constituents to reach out.

[exhales sharply]

This came in.

You want privacy?

I'll give you privacy.

[turns page]

[knocking, door opens]

Kate Pearson?

- [door closes]

- I'm Dr. Wolfe.

I'm one of the
clinicians here.

- Hi.
- Hi.

So, let me tell you
how this is gonna go.

Uh, by Pennsylvania law,

I'm required to ask you
this list of questions

before we can proceed
any further.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Are you absolutely sure

of your decision
to terminate this pregnancy?

Yes.

Can you tell me
what led to your decision?

Um... I'm 18,

and I'm not
with the guy anymore, so...

Are you taking any medications
or other drugs?

Kate?

Um, so where do they actually
do it?

Will it be in here?

No. The procedure would happen
in the room next door.

And that happens
today, right?

- Mm.
- No, honey. We're legally required

to wait 24 hours
after meeting the patient

and giving the questions
and information.

[fading]: If after 24 hours, you
feel you want the procedure...

- Babe?
- Hi.

Where's Jackie?

Ugh. Conked out
in his sleep chair.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

You look pretty tired
yourself.

Well, that's because
I spent the entire night

cyber-stalking
my awful ex-boyfriend Marc.

I don't know.
I just...

I just felt like...

I don't know...
you were right.

Right, like, I was clearly
not past the past.

And that's why I took out
my laptop, I went for a dive,

and I found out
that he's in San Diego.

So I was thinking.

I don't know what I'm gonna say
or what I'm gonna do,

but I-I feel like
I have to see him.

I was hoping
you would come with.

I know it's a lot to ask, but
I could really use your support.

Are you sure
you can handle seeing him again?

Yeah.

Okay. I'm in.

- Okay.
- Okay.

[phone ringing]

[drops keys]

REBECCA [on machine]:
Hi. You've reached the Pearsons.

- Leave us a message.
- [beep]

REBECCA: Hey, sweetheart.
It's me.

Just calling
to check in.

Um... Kevin did really great
at his showcase last night.

And then he tried to set me
up with his acting teacher.

[Rebecca chuckles]

Is everything okay?

I thought you said
you'd be home.

Well, I'm at Kevin's
if you need me, all right?

I love you. Bye, Bug.

[dial tone]

[sets phone down]

[laughter, indistinct chatter]

[sets phone down]

This is so lovely.

Are we celebrating
something?

- SOPHIE: Kevin's got great news.
- KEVIN: Mm-hmm.

- REBECCA: Oh.
- I got a call from a talent manager.

- [gasps] - She was at
my showcase last night.

And she said that I have
the right look for TV.

Oh, so,
she's more of a looks manager.

- Okay, let him talk.
- That's great, sweetheart.

And she says it's pilot season,

and she wants me
to go to L.A.

for a few months
so she can send me on auditions.

- L.A.?
- Uh-huh.

[scoffs]
But you just got to New York.

Yeah.

Well, what about you?
Will you be going with him?

Oh, um, I have school, so...

Yeah, and I'll be back

- before she can even miss me.
- SOPHIE: Yeah.

Mm.

To Kevin.

- To your career.
- [Sophie chuckles]

- KEVIN: Thanks, Mom.
- BETH: To your career.

- To your career.
- To my career.

[Chuckles]

And because of my profession,

I get tested
multiple times a week.

I quarantine strictly.

I'm basically the loneliest,
safest person on the planet.

- [all laugh]
- KEVIN: You're funny.

That's funny.
She is funny,

- right?
- She is. [Chuckles]

Um, and do you know CPR?

NATASHA:
And pediatric first aid.

- Recertified every year.
- MADISON: That is

- so reassuring, I can't tell you.
- Unbelievable.

And you're good
with extended travel,

right?
Because nowadays,

you never know where
these movies are gonna shoot.

- So...
- My passport's always up-to-date.

Oh, that's great. That's great,
because we want someone

who travels with us to keep
things consistent for the twins.

- NATASHA: Mm-hmm.
- MADISON: I mean,

sure,
there'll be occasional travel,

but most of the time,
we'll be here in L.A.

KEVIN:
Mm.

Yeah. I mean, that's the hope.

Yeah, you hope for that,
but, you know,

as we just found out,
these movies,

they'll shoot 'em anywhere,
so...

I've gone all over
the world with my families.

- KEVIN: Mm.
- I know how to help them adjust

to constantly changing
locations.

Starting new schools,
you know, making new friends.

BETH:
Hey.

You're home early.

What's wrong?

So, a man named Hai Lang

- submitted a city complaint
form on the website. - Mm-hmm.

He used it as a way to get
in touch with me personally.

"My name's Hai Lang,
and I live in New Orleans.

"I recognized the name
William Hill from a video

"I saw of you on the Internet.

Not 100% certain, but I believe
I knew your mother, Laurel."

- What?
- "We were close friends.

I was by her side when she died
in May of 2015."

Doesn't exactly jive
with the whole "she died

after I was born" story,
huh?

- Randall, what the hell?
- I don't know.

- I'm gonna go, um...
- Wait.

Oh, my God.

He sent a picture.

Randall, is this her?

How would I know, Beth?

I've never seen
the woman before.

[sighs]

[sniffles]

[footsteps approaching]

- Hey.
- Hey.

I was thinking about bringing in
Monk's for dinner.

Been craving
those crab legs.

I will see you
in a bit.

Did you really
just peck and go?

Uh, Randall,

this is not
a peck and go situation.

Okay?
We need to talk about this.

I was wondering for 36 years.

I got my answers.

I'm not going down
this road.

I understand that.
But why?

- Beth, come on.
- Okay, Randall...

'Cause it would mean
he lied to me.

How did you meet
my mother?

On a bus, of all places.

[chuckles softly]

My God,
she was so beautiful.

I got to tell you something.
One look at that face,

and my world spun
on every axis.

Fallen as we were
back then,

when she found out about you,
she was so excited.

I'd never seen a woman
so determined to get clean,

to stay clean,

to do right by this baby.

To do right by you.

And she did.

For nine months.

But then, after the birth,

the pain took hold of her
like a demon.

I lost her the next day.

If, um...

If she really did die
just a few years ago,

it would mean
that William lied to me, Beth.

Think you should, um...

call your therapist
on this one?

I don't need
to call my therapist.

I need...
I need to go for a run.

He needs to call
his therapist.

KEVIN:
You hated her, right?

Well, you know what?
Screw her

and that glorious Range Rover
that she rode in on.

Jet-setting all over the world
with our kids and their nannies?

That's not exactly the life
I pictured for our family.

Well, uh, you know,

what about private jet-setting
all over the world

with... our kids
and their nannies?

Okay. Look, Madison,
I am lost here.

Uh, you know,
just a bit ago,

you were pushing me out the door
to go to Vancouver, right?

And now you're upset that we're
traveling for my work?

I pushed you
to go to Vancouver

because the babies
aren't here yet

and because I know how much
this movie means to you.

And you made a commitment
to a lot of people, but...

you also made a commitment
to me and these kids.

I didn't realize
that where we lived

was as important
as being a family.

And how did you think
this would work?

Did you just
assume that me and the kids

would become
your international roadies?

No, I didn't...
I wouldn't say that phrase.

What... You know, I thought
we would stick together.

Me, too.

In our home.

What do you want me to do?

What do you want me to do?
Do you want me to quit acting,

Madison?
It took me 20 years to get here.

But I'm not exactly
in a position where I can dictate

where they shoot things,
okay?

And quite frankly, I'm...

I'm struggling
to figure out

how this is
all of a sudden news to you.

It's not.

Look, I have been growing

two humans inside my body,
living with you

in this bubble.
I mean, I'm sorry

if the realities of your career

haven't exactly been
top of mind.

I'm not trying
to give you a hard time, but...

I was willing
to do this on my own.

Remember?

I was never gonna ask you
for anything,

but you insisted on being

a part of our lives,
and now I have gone

and fallen in love
with this idea of our family.

[Kevin grunts]

Well, I have gone
and fallen in love

with the idea
of our family, too.

KATE: Here we are.
This is where Marc works

according to
his Myspace page.

TOBY:
This guy has a Myspace page?

Of all the things that
you have told me about this guy,

him having a Myspace page
is the creepiest.

Hey. You all right?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

TOBY:
Maybe I should go in with you.

No, you don't need to go in
with me.

[sighs]

Kate Pearson.

I knew you couldn't
stay away.

Um, Marc?

MARC: Well, it, uh, takes
a little while to make a lady

all of her favorite
breakfast foods for lunch.

We got one bagel,

which is scooped,
lightly toasted,

butter on the side.

And then we have

an egg, very, very runny.

[chuckles]:
Which is still, to me,

like eating an oyster
from the ass of a chicken.

[chuckles]
But it's the way you like it.

I don't judge.
And then we got

one coffee, nonfat milk.

No Sweet'N Low, though,
because I didn't have any,

and for that,
I am very sorry.

You remembered everything.

[chuckles softly]
Course I did.

I really did miss you.

You're still upset
about the cabin.

I am so sorry, Kate.

I was such a dick.

I-I don't know. I-I don't know
what happens to me.

It's, um...

It's like a switch
flips inside me,

um, which...
That's so not an excuse.

- Marc.
- And I should've apologized to you

the second I saw you today,
but I just...

I thought
that you showing up here

was you saying
you forgive me.

Well,
that's not what I'm saying.

I mean...

I mean, that's not what
I came here to say.

Well, what'd you come here
to say?

[sighs]
Okay.

Uh-oh. This sounds heavy.

Well, it is.

[sighs deeply]

[chuckles]
You're annoyed now?

Um...

I'm just a little whiplashed,

'cause I was, like,
really, really happy to see you.

And then now
it's just like...

ugh.

[sighs]

You know what,

let's just chill and
let's just watch some TV, huh?

Let's just, like, be here
with each other.

Huh?

Come on.

[turns TV on]

[channels changing]

[dramatic music playing]

Oh, wait,
that's Airplane!

[chuckles] Could you
actually not change it?

We regret any inconvenience...

Um, okay.

This is due to periodic

- air pockets we encounter.
- [Kate chuckling]

There's no reason
to become alarmed,

and we hope you enjoy
the rest of your flight.

By the way,
is there anyone on board

who knows how to fly a plane?

Okay. Sure.

What do you remember

20 years ago?

Goodbye, Marc.

Sorry. Uh, hold on.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

When I look back on it,
I think...

we were in love?

Um...

I mean,
you had great taste in music.

And...

you were broken,
you know,

in all the right places.

And, yeah, things got intense
at times, but, like,

we were kids.

No.

I was a kid.

You were a 24-year-old man.

And I wasn't broken.
I was grieving.

My dad just died.

And I was destroyed

and so vulnerable
and you knew it.

You liked it.

- [chuckles]: Okay...
- W... No, no, no.

I'm not finished.

What you did to me...

how you held my self-esteem
in your hand

and then you decided
to crush it,

God, that damaged me, Marc.

For years,

I swallowed my dreams,

my feelings...

and a lot of food.

No, no, look at me.

Look at me.

You need to get this.

The time that it took for me
to heal from you

stole years of my life.

And I can't get them
back.

[chuckles]
Took me a while,

yeah, but I, um...

I found someone who...

loves me the way
that I deserve to be loved.

I have a beautiful son

and an incredible husband,

who's actually
in that car

and who was just, like,
seconds away

from wanting to just pulverize
you with his bare hands.

I'm not broken. You're the one

So...

I give it back to you.

Good luck with it, Marc.

VANCE: So,
what would this mean to you

if this Hai person was
actually telling the truth?

Beyond William's betrayal,
I mean.

Beyond William's?

You know, I put a...
an ad in the paper

looking for my mom
when I was 16?

Some scam artist showed up
at the park.

She wanted money.

That must have hurt.

So much so that
I stopped looking

for another 20 years.

She had 35 years to find me, and
she never even looked for me.

You don't know if that's
what happened.

I... [sighs]

Let's look at it
this way.

At nine years old,
you were curling your tongue

at Black folks
in supermarkets.

At 16, you put ads
in the paper.

And at 35,
you hired a P.I.

Your whole life,

your instincts have been
telling you

you need to know
your history.

Why do you think
you needed that?

To know where I came from.

To... to know who I was.

I don't know, to...

to feel connected or rooted

to something
bigger than myself.

Did knowing William
help you do that?

In a lot of ways
it did.

Is there a chance that
knowing Laurel's story

could help you, too?

You're already in
the journey, Randall.

Why not be inin it?

[sighs]

Um, I made you a little
to-go breakfast.

This is so nice.
You didn't have to do that.

This-this...

Thank you. Thank you.

You know, the car's gonna
be here... any second.

Yeah, I just... I'm...

I know I'm leaving
at the worst possible time.

But when I come back,

it will be with a heart
that is committed...

Kevin...
I am... deeply aware

that you come from a family
of great speech-givers.

I think you should use this time
away to be real with yourself.

To... figure out how
this relationship and family

is actually gonna work,
and how these babies and I

We can hack a few months apart.

Are you sure?

You know, because
when I think of anything

getting in between me
and Beth...

it makes my stomach hurt.

[laughs]

That's 'cause you're whipped.

Sorry I called.

No, look, I, uh...

I appreciate the concern.

But Sophie and I are solid.

We're gonna be okay.

And look,
when I'm a big star,

and we're living
in some mansion,

it'll all be worth it.

Okay, Kev.

Whatever you say.

[sighs]

Hey. Everything all right
with Mom?

Uh, with the babies?

Yeah.

Mom's good, um,
and Madison's...

She's fine.
Yeah.

I-I saw your, uh,
your-your strip clip

on Hoda's Twitter feed.

- Ah...
- [chuckles] It's hilarious, man.

It's good... And not, like,
in an embarrassing way at all.

I mean, it comes off
really charming.

- It's great.
- Yeah. It's been a trip.

Uh, h-how is everybody there?
How are the girls?

Good. They're good.

Uh, Zoom schooling
is a unique version of hell,

- but, um...
- [chuckles] I bet.

[quietly]:
Yeah.

- So...
- Anyway, uh...

Oh, no, I-I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, no, g-go ahead.

No, I wasn't, uh, n...
Go ahead.

Well, l-look, the reason
I was calling is I'm-I'm, um...

S... Um...

I'm finding myself
in a really, um...

complicated
place with Madison,

and I'm a little bit lost
on how to deal with it,

and I-I, uh... the first
thought that I had...

was, uh,

well, it was
"What would Randall do?"

I, uh, I have that thought
a lot, actually.

That's a nice thing to say.

It's a...

nice thing to know.

I know it seems ironic, too,

uh, because of all of the...

horrible things
that I said to you

that day
when we were, uh...

Ah, we said a lot
of things, Kev.

Yeah, but, uh...

S...

Randall, Kate was telling me
about some of the things, uh,

that you felt

during our childhood, some of...

Is that really how you felt?

Yeah, Kev, it is.

Well, that is horrible.

Uh...

I can't imagine having
to keep all that to yourself.

Hey, Kev, I'm sorry
to cut you off,

but, um,
now's not a great time.

I-I have a really important
phone call

that I have to make
right now.

HAI [over phone]:
Hello?

Hi, Hai.

Um, sorry. Uh, what I meant
to say was hello.

Um, is this Hai?

Uh, yes, this is he.

This is Randall Pearson.

Oh, Randall.

I'm so pleased
to hear from you.

Uh, Hai?

Do you mind if I just jump
into asking you

a really blunt question?

Go ahead.

You mentioned in your e-mail
that Laurel died in May of 2015.

Of breast cancer,
yes.

BETH: Um, this is
Beth, Randall's wife.

How exactly did you know
Laurel?

We met in our early 20s,
here in Orleans Parish.

Sorry, I didn't expect
to feel so strange

talking about her
on the phone.

I've thought of telling you
about her for so many years.

I just wish
I could see your face.

I wish... I could show you
the places she lived,

the things she loved.
