Previously on
"This Is Us"...
2
00:00:03,127 --> 00:00:04,707
I came here for my brother.
3
00:00:04,798 --> 00:00:06,832
I was hoping
to take him back with me.
4
00:00:06,919 --> 00:00:08,941
You should've left me to rot!
5
00:00:09,541 --> 00:00:11,035
Join my campaign.
6
00:00:11,248 --> 00:00:13,275
You swear this is not
a pity job?
7
00:00:13,362 --> 00:00:15,799
I wouldn't dare
offer you a pity job.
8
00:00:15,886 --> 00:00:17,642
- Hey, I'm Randall.
- Uh, Jesse.
9
00:00:17,729 --> 00:00:18,955
Nice to meet you,
Jesse.
10
00:00:19,042 --> 00:00:20,702
Did William
ever mention a Jesse?
11
00:00:20,789 --> 00:00:23,050
Dad, Grandpa's gay.
12
00:00:23,306 --> 00:00:25,090
Or at least bi.
13
00:00:26,368 --> 00:00:29,082
There's no Jack here.
It's Pilgrim Rick.
14
00:00:29,329 --> 00:00:31,402
I want every
Thanksgiving
15
00:00:31,530 --> 00:00:34,222
to be like this
for the rest of my life.
16
00:00:44,852 --> 00:00:46,644
Can I help you with anything?
17
00:00:46,731 --> 00:00:48,608
Maybe you could have asked me
that question
18
00:00:48,695 --> 00:00:50,337
before I started
cutting the onions.
19
00:00:50,424 --> 00:00:52,458
No, because then you'd
have me cutting the onions.
20
00:00:52,545 --> 00:00:53,564
Yeah.
21
00:00:56,079 --> 00:00:57,868
This is probably
our last Thanksgiving
22
00:00:57,955 --> 00:00:59,164
with the kids
all living here.
23
00:00:59,251 --> 00:01:00,645
Yeah, well, with how much
they've been
24
00:01:00,732 --> 00:01:02,807
at each other's throats,
maybe that's a good thing.
25
00:01:02,894 --> 00:01:05,134
- Whoa, Bec.
- Hmm?
26
00:01:05,233 --> 00:01:07,656
Are you opening up a pie shop
that I don't know about?
27
00:01:07,743 --> 00:01:09,791
I know,
I kind of overdid it, huh?
28
00:01:11,801 --> 00:01:14,639
Do you think we made a mistake
by not giving the kids
29
00:01:14,726 --> 00:01:17,250
some big,
extended family Thanksgiving?
30
00:01:17,337 --> 00:01:19,455
No, come on.
Our families are terrible.
31
00:01:19,982 --> 00:01:21,148
But Miguel's coming over.
32
00:01:21,235 --> 00:01:22,653
He's pretty much
extended family.
33
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:25,680
I know, and I feel like
a traitor for having him over.
34
00:01:25,767 --> 00:01:28,266
- Bec, you're not a traitor.
- His ex is my best friend,
35
00:01:28,353 --> 00:01:29,978
and he's coming
for Thanksgiving.
36
00:01:30,065 --> 00:01:31,388
That's
best friend treason.
37
00:01:31,475 --> 00:01:35,248
Bec, it's the man's first
Thanksgiving since the divorce.
38
00:01:35,335 --> 00:01:38,283
And with Shelly taking the kids
to Connecticut for her family,
39
00:01:38,370 --> 00:01:40,027
he would be alone otherwise.
40
00:01:40,114 --> 00:01:42,984
Well, maybe he wouldn't be alone
41
00:01:43,071 --> 00:01:45,481
if he'd fought a little harder
to save his marriage.
42
00:01:45,568 --> 00:01:47,142
That is Shelly's
side of things.
43
00:01:47,384 --> 00:01:49,205
I didn't know
we were taking sides.
44
00:01:49,313 --> 00:01:50,804
Well, do you want
to take sides?
45
00:01:50,891 --> 00:01:51,919
I don't want to take sides.
46
00:01:52,006 --> 00:01:54,792
- I don't want to have a fight.
- I don't want to take sides, either.
47
00:01:56,829 --> 00:01:57,906
What is that?
48
00:01:57,993 --> 00:02:00,266
Uh...
sounds like laughter.
49
00:02:00,353 --> 00:02:02,208
- From our moody teenagers?
- It couldn't be.
50
00:02:02,295 --> 00:02:05,509
- Shall we investigate?
- Shall we ever.
51
00:02:07,787 --> 00:02:09,906
Don't make it complicated.
52
00:02:09,993 --> 00:02:12,262
- What's so funny?
- Randall's college essay.
53
00:02:12,349 --> 00:02:14,122
- It's not that funny.
- Okay, then go ahead.
54
00:02:14,209 --> 00:02:15,619
- Read them the question.
- No.
55
00:02:15,712 --> 00:02:17,212
- Read it.
- Come on.
56
00:02:17,299 --> 00:02:18,865
- Come on.
- So the question is,
57
00:02:18,993 --> 00:02:22,492
"So far, what person has
most impacted your life?"
58
00:02:22,579 --> 00:02:23,758
And he doesn't want to go
59
00:02:23,845 --> 00:02:25,646
with the firefighter
who found him on the steps.
60
00:02:25,733 --> 00:02:27,325
- But the question is flawed.
- No, no, no.
61
00:02:27,412 --> 00:02:28,992
The question
is an underhanded softball
62
00:02:29,079 --> 00:02:30,755
- that you should clobber.
- Clobber, Randall.
63
00:02:30,842 --> 00:02:32,125
- No... - It's so easy.
- Right?
64
00:02:32,212 --> 00:02:33,942
The whole premise
of the question is wrong.
65
00:02:34,029 --> 00:02:35,453
No one person can
66
00:02:35,540 --> 00:02:37,498
- have the greatest impact - on your life.
- Oh, my... Blah, blah, blah.
67
00:02:37,585 --> 00:02:39,311
Can someone please tell him
that he's overthinking this?
68
00:02:39,398 --> 00:02:41,403
Hey, your brother's gonna
make the right decision.
69
00:02:41,490 --> 00:02:42,845
What do you think?
70
00:02:43,368 --> 00:02:44,523
The fireman's a layup.
71
00:02:44,610 --> 00:02:46,708
- Oh! There you go.
- He said it himself. -Oh...
72
00:02:46,795 --> 00:02:48,053
- Come on.
- Kev, ball.
73
00:02:48,140 --> 00:02:51,019
- Bah. -Interception!
- Not inside...
74
00:02:53,324 --> 00:02:55,858
- Whoa!
- I don't want to play.
75
00:02:55,945 --> 00:02:57,800
I'm not playing!
76
00:03:00,011 --> 00:03:01,049
Touchdown!
77
00:03:01,136 --> 00:03:02,651
Doorbell. Doorbell.
78
00:03:02,738 --> 00:03:03,999
Hey, Kev,
you want to get that?
79
00:03:04,086 --> 00:03:05,683
- Oh!
- Oh!
80
00:03:06,885 --> 00:03:08,467
How long does it take them
to go to the store
81
00:03:08,554 --> 00:03:11,503
and get cranberry sauce?
I called an hour ago, Shelly.
82
00:03:12,691 --> 00:03:16,433
Shelly, I just want to say
happy Thanksgiving to our kids.
83
00:03:16,595 --> 00:03:18,707
Shelly, don't hang up on...
84
00:03:19,784 --> 00:03:21,710
She hung up on me.
85
00:03:21,927 --> 00:03:23,222
Hey.
86
00:03:23,807 --> 00:03:26,722
Hey. Happy Thanksgiving.
87
00:03:26,948 --> 00:03:28,405
I brought a pie.
88
00:03:30,495 --> 00:03:32,827
- I'm gonna go put it in the kitchen.
- Yeah, okay.

So, the person who's made
the biggest impact on your life?
94
00:03:43,812 --> 00:03:45,455
- Yeah.
- Ooh, that fireman who found you.
95
00:03:45,542 --> 00:03:46,791
- No. No. I'm not...
- Colleges l
96
00:03:46,878 --> 00:03:48,507
- ..I'm not doing that...
- love that kind of stuff.- Hello.
97
00:03:48,594 --> 00:03:49,619
- Uh, can somebody grab
- No.
98
00:03:49,706 --> 00:03:50,640
The Pilgrim Rick hat,
please?
99
00:03:50,727 --> 00:03:52,463
Wow. You guys
still do that stuff?
100
00:03:52,550 --> 00:03:53,791
Sure do, pal.
Family tradition.
101
00:03:53,878 --> 00:03:55,593
- That we've outgrown.
- No. - Oh, come on.
102
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,760
Aw, I still like when Dad
does Pilgrim Rick.
103
00:03:57,847 --> 00:03:58,866
Thank you, Katie girl.
104
00:03:58,953 --> 00:04:00,538
Yeah, and it covers
all the grays.
105
00:04:00,625 --> 00:04:01,853
- Oh!
- Whoa!
106
00:04:01,940 --> 00:04:03,486
Ooh, do you need some ice
for that burn?
107
00:04:03,573 --> 00:04:04,702
- She got you.
- I thought this was
108
00:04:04,789 --> 00:04:05,939
a Thanksgiving dinner.
109
00:04:06,026 --> 00:04:07,241
I didn't realize
it was a roast.
110
00:04:07,328 --> 00:04:08,537
Hey, a little bit of both.
111
00:04:08,624 --> 00:04:10,654
- Yeah, okay, sure.
- Here, you might need the...
112
00:04:10,823 --> 00:04:12,533
You knock it off
with that...
113
00:04:13,255 --> 00:04:14,706
Excuse me a second.
114
00:04:15,478 --> 00:04:16,739
Don't take sides.
115
00:04:24,401 --> 00:04:26,980
Hey. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
116
00:04:29,449 --> 00:04:33,558
You know, I get the stress
of who gets the house,
117
00:04:34,197 --> 00:04:36,402
and the alimony
and all that crap,
118
00:04:37,331 --> 00:04:39,197
but turning the kids
against me?
119
00:04:39,284 --> 00:04:41,680
Your kids can't be turned
against you, Miguel.
120
00:04:41,767 --> 00:04:42,838
Okay? They love you.
121
00:04:42,925 --> 00:04:45,260
Come on, Jack.
Just say it like it is.
122
00:04:45,878 --> 00:04:47,436
We both know that
I wasn't there
123
00:04:47,523 --> 00:04:49,531
for Andy and Amber
like I should've been.
124
00:04:49,723 --> 00:04:53,301
Work always came first,
and now I'm paying the price.
125
00:04:56,333 --> 00:04:58,138
Okay, fine.
126
00:04:58,817 --> 00:05:03,207
You could have... you could've
been a more present father.
127
00:05:03,294 --> 00:05:06,828
You know? But you wanted
to provide for your family.
128
00:05:07,278 --> 00:05:10,198
I've never seen anyone work
as hard as you.
129
00:05:10,591 --> 00:05:14,404
You know, I remember, I remember
when you made upper management.
130
00:05:14,669 --> 00:05:18,060
I remember how proud of you
I was.
131
00:05:18,372 --> 00:05:22,005
You were gonna be doing
the big deals with the big boys.
132
00:05:22,262 --> 00:05:24,693
And then you figured out
that the big deals
133
00:05:24,780 --> 00:05:26,690
were done on a golf course.
134
00:05:26,777 --> 00:05:28,817
And so what did you do?
135
00:05:29,018 --> 00:05:31,548
You bought some clubs,
you got lessons.
136
00:05:31,635 --> 00:05:35,079
You would go to the range
after work and hit balls...
137
00:05:35,166 --> 00:05:36,756
..instead of going home
and having a family dinner.
138
00:05:36,843 --> 00:05:38,579
Until a Puerto Rican kid
139
00:05:38,666 --> 00:05:40,896
who'd never been
to business school,
140
00:05:41,104 --> 00:05:44,556
who-who'd never set foot
on a golf course,
141
00:05:44,643 --> 00:05:49,478
let alone played on one, joins
his boss's Saturday foursome,
142
00:05:49,565 --> 00:05:53,651
and he becomes country club
champion four years in a row.
143
00:05:54,088 --> 00:05:55,709
You got to take that fight,
144
00:05:55,796 --> 00:06:01,261
and you need to show your kids
that you are still their father.
145
00:06:01,611 --> 00:06:03,198
You hear me?
146
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:05,893
Yeah.
147
00:06:06,026 --> 00:06:08,301
You don't want to be 65 years old
148
00:06:08,388 --> 00:06:10,644
and not know
your grandkids.
149
00:06:18,971 --> 00:06:22,570
Man, what's a guy got to do
to get some turkey around here?
150
00:06:28,762 --> 00:06:30,607
Hey, have you heard
from Jae-won?
151
00:06:30,855 --> 00:06:33,315
- Hmm?
- About moving today's
152
00:06:33,402 --> 00:06:35,585
soup kitchen visit from the church
to the rec center.
153
00:06:35,672 --> 00:06:36,986
Not yet.
What about it?
154
00:06:37,073 --> 00:06:39,180
- Can you rinse and repeat, baby?
- I'm sorry.
155
00:06:42,908 --> 00:06:44,723
Ah...
156
00:06:45,698 --> 00:06:48,183
- I have not heard from Jae-won.
- Okay.
157
00:06:48,270 --> 00:06:50,479
I hope he's on board with me
changing the venue.
158
00:06:50,566 --> 00:06:52,835
I'm not sure he likes me
working on the campaign.
159
00:06:52,922 --> 00:06:54,947
What?
That's crazy.
160
00:06:55,034 --> 00:06:56,885
You've had, like,
300 stupendous ideas
161
00:06:56,972 --> 00:06:58,093
since joining my campaign.
162
00:06:58,180 --> 00:06:59,398
The fish-fry fundraiser,
163
00:06:59,485 --> 00:07:01,321
pushing for the town hall debate
next week.
164
00:07:01,408 --> 00:07:03,688
Plus, you look smoking
even when you're dressing down
165
00:07:03,775 --> 00:07:05,034
for a soup kitchen.
166
00:07:05,121 --> 00:07:06,721
Okay.
You're right.
167
00:07:06,808 --> 00:07:08,429
I'm crushing being
your field director.
168
00:07:08,516 --> 00:07:09,494
You are.
169
00:07:10,034 --> 00:07:11,094
Mm.
170
00:07:12,050 --> 00:07:13,300
- Mm-mm.
- Mm?
171
00:07:13,712 --> 00:07:14,760
- Huh?
- Hustle now.
172
00:07:14,847 --> 00:07:16,171
- Yes.
- Okay? I'll meet you downstairs.
173
00:07:16,258 --> 00:07:17,882
Toby and Kate will be here
any minute.
174
00:07:17,969 --> 00:07:20,528
You sure they're up to cooking
while we're out?
175
00:07:20,615 --> 00:07:22,254
I mean, Kate's all IVF'd up,
176
00:07:22,341 --> 00:07:23,820
and Toby's just getting back
on his feet.
177
00:07:23,907 --> 00:07:24,838
I quadruple-checked.
178
00:07:24,925 --> 00:07:26,600
They are excited
to be in charge this year.
179
00:07:26,687 --> 00:07:27,665
Mom?
180
00:07:29,348 --> 00:07:31,216
Yeah?
181
00:07:44,544 --> 00:07:45,742
I don't feel good.
182
00:07:45,829 --> 00:07:47,098
Hmm.
183
00:07:47,249 --> 00:07:49,917
No fever.
Go lie down, okay?
184
00:07:50,004 --> 00:07:51,804
I'll tell Aunt Kate
to keep an eye on you.
185
00:07:51,891 --> 00:07:53,043
Okay.
186
00:07:59,473 --> 00:08:00,859
Happy Thanksgiving.
187
00:08:00,946 --> 00:08:02,358
- Happy Thanksgiving.
- Happy Thanksgiving.
188
00:08:02,445 --> 00:08:04,169
The cavalry is here!
189
00:08:04,723 --> 00:08:06,731
All right.
What do we got here?
190
00:08:07,309 --> 00:08:09,394
- Hey-oh.
- Hi.
191
00:08:09,481 --> 00:08:12,401
How's my sis feeling with her
little turducken in the oven?
192
00:08:12,488 --> 00:08:13,698
- Pretty good.
- Yeah?
193
00:08:13,785 --> 00:08:15,503
Yeah. The morning sickness
isn't too bad,
194
00:08:15,590 --> 00:08:17,469
and Toby's been coming through
with the back rubs.
195
00:08:17,556 --> 00:08:19,766
Yeah. My fingers are basically
tension assassins.
196
00:08:19,853 --> 00:08:22,133
- Give me some of that. Uh.
- Oh, you know what?
197
00:08:22,220 --> 00:08:23,620
Tess isn't feeling well.
198
00:08:23,707 --> 00:08:25,695
Is it okay with you guys
if she stays here with you?
199
00:08:25,782 --> 00:08:27,180
Yeah, that'd be
good practice for us
200
00:08:27,267 --> 00:08:29,097
for when we have
a little sicko of our own.
201
00:08:29,184 --> 00:08:30,644
- Are you sure?
- If this is too much for you,
202
00:08:30,731 --> 00:08:32,198
- Tobe, you just...
- Because we can make another
203
00:08:32,285 --> 00:08:33,063
- arrangement, right?
- Yeah.
204
00:08:33,150 --> 00:08:34,727
- Look, guys, guys, guys, guys.
- Hey, this... it's great.
205
00:08:34,814 --> 00:08:36,409
We'll watch Tess.
This is gonna be fine.
206
00:08:36,496 --> 00:08:39,656
Look, my comeback is about
small victories, all right?
207
00:08:39,743 --> 00:08:42,480
And helping Kate cook
a 15-pound Butterball
208
00:08:42,567 --> 00:08:44,191
using Snoop and
Martha's recipe
209
00:08:44,278 --> 00:08:46,327
will be a small
but meaningful victory.
210
00:08:46,414 --> 00:08:47,563
All right, then.
211
00:08:47,650 --> 00:08:50,020
Hey, girls, let's hit the road!
212
00:08:51,090 --> 00:08:52,244
So, if anything happens,
213
00:08:52,331 --> 00:08:54,012
just give us a call.
We'll be back by 4:00.
214
00:08:54,099 --> 00:08:55,779
- Yep. - Okay.
- Yeah? All right. Let's hit it.
215
00:08:55,866 --> 00:08:58,114
Hey, Annie, why is there
a gigantic teddy bear
216
00:08:58,201 --> 00:08:59,549
sitting at
the dining room table?
217
00:08:59,636 --> 00:09:00,817
It's a secret.
218
00:09:00,904 --> 00:09:03,122
A secret?
It's creepy is what it is.
219
00:09:03,209 --> 00:09:04,997
- All right, have fun...
- Have fun.
220
00:09:05,084 --> 00:09:06,989
- Hi!
- At the homeless shelter.
221
00:09:13,558 --> 00:09:15,404
Be right with you, folks.
222
00:09:19,158 --> 00:09:20,720
Hello, little ladies.
223
00:09:20,807 --> 00:09:22,998
Don't you guys look beautiful?
Uh, you want to go
224
00:09:23,085 --> 00:09:25,183
- help them over there?
- Yeah.
225
00:09:25,823 --> 00:09:28,681
Explain to me how this
is better than Linwood Baptist.
226
00:09:28,768 --> 00:09:31,256
Well, we just felt like,
uh, the athletic center
227
00:09:31,343 --> 00:09:34,095
represents a broader sample
of the 12th.
228
00:09:34,182 --> 00:09:36,517
Did we? Because, you know,
at this very moment,
229
00:09:36,604 --> 00:09:39,040
Sol Brown is handing out turkeys
over at Linwood Baptist,
230
00:09:39,127 --> 00:09:41,053
the biggest Thanksgiving
soup kitchen in the city,
231
00:09:41,140 --> 00:09:43,295
which gets photographed
every year by The Inquirer,
232
00:09:43,382 --> 00:09:44,845
The Telegraph,
The Philadelphia
233
00:09:44,932 --> 00:09:46,803
- Tribune...
- Please stop saying newspapers at me.
234
00:09:46,890 --> 00:09:48,650
We-we don't need a photo op,
you know?
235
00:09:48,737 --> 00:09:50,540
Randall wants to connect
with the people.
236
00:09:50,627 --> 00:09:52,235
He doesn't want to look
like the guy who drove in
237
00:09:52,322 --> 00:09:53,897
to hold a ladle
and get his picture taken.
238
00:09:53,984 --> 00:09:55,865
- We just want...
- I need to go to the bathroom.
239
00:09:55,952 --> 00:09:57,010
Oh...
240
00:09:57,682 --> 00:09:59,800
To not be continued.
241
00:10:00,221 --> 00:10:02,300
- Excuse me.
- Mm-hmm.
242
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,261
Have we landed on a job title
for your wife?
243
00:10:06,401 --> 00:10:09,209
Yeah, field director. She'll
spread my message, coordinate...
244
00:10:09,296 --> 00:10:12,315
I'm aware what a field director
does, since I usually hire them.
245
00:10:12,402 --> 00:10:16,056
Randall, has your wife
ever worked on a campaign?
246
00:10:16,143 --> 00:10:17,498
Because I think
she needs to understand
247
00:10:17,585 --> 00:10:19,194
- that there's a system here.
- Hey, Jae-won.
248
00:10:19,281 --> 00:10:20,829
You've done an amazing job.
249
00:10:20,916 --> 00:10:22,592
All right?
You joining my campaign
250
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,566
has been divine intervention.
251
00:10:24,884 --> 00:10:27,862
But Beth is my wife,
and she's for real
252
00:10:28,182 --> 00:10:30,362
and it's not open
for discussion.
253
00:10:32,848 --> 00:10:34,894

- They want me to move out.
- Of course they do.
262
00:10:55,924 --> 00:10:58,501

Well,
the man doesn't get it.
281
00:11:42,032 --> 00:11:43,749
- Man..
- What?
282
00:11:43,836 --> 00:11:46,243
None of my messages
are getting through to Kate.
283
00:11:46,330 --> 00:11:48,499
Mm.
This reception sucks.
284
00:11:48,586 --> 00:11:50,132
We should put that
on our platform:
285
00:11:50,219 --> 00:11:51,787
fix cell phone service
in Philly.

Great news.
I convinced a photographer
291
00:12:02,955 --> 00:12:05,175
from Linwood Baptist to come
here and take some pictures.
292
00:12:05,262 --> 00:12:06,319
Best of both worlds, baby.
293
00:12:06,406 --> 00:12:07,336
- Oh, dude, that's great.
- Yeah.
294
00:12:07,423 --> 00:12:10,586
That's-that's great, right?
295
00:12:11,695 --> 00:12:14,327
I'm sorry, guys. I just...
I don't think it's a good idea.
296
00:12:14,414 --> 00:12:16,824
People came here to have
a nice meal with their families,
297
00:12:16,911 --> 00:12:19,161
and most of them don't want
to be photographed
298
00:12:19,248 --> 00:12:20,280
getting a handout.
299
00:12:20,367 --> 00:12:21,881
You know,
Randall's whole strategy...
300
00:12:21,968 --> 00:12:23,433
You know, his strategy
is to get more votes
301
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:24,921
than he currently has, Beth.
302
00:12:28,906 --> 00:12:31,039
Guys, stop.
303
00:12:33,008 --> 00:12:34,836
All right, I'm sorry, Jae-won.
304
00:12:41,930 --> 00:12:43,998
- I-I called in a favor, man.
- I know,
305
00:12:44,085 --> 00:12:46,089
and I'm sorry, but you should've
run it by us first.
306
00:12:46,176 --> 00:12:48,246
No, actually, no, because
I'm the campaign manager
307
00:12:48,333 --> 00:12:49,964
and what I'm supposed to do is
get... No, no. -Jae-won, please.
308
00:12:50,051 --> 00:12:51,549
Randall, you're
making a mistake.
309
00:12:51,636 --> 00:12:52,706
What do you want me to do, man?
310
00:12:52,793 --> 00:12:54,214
I don't care if it's a mistake,
311
00:12:54,301 --> 00:12:56,031
she's my wife.
312
00:13:01,499 --> 00:13:05,672
- Yeah, um, happy Thanksgiving.
- To you and yours
313
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:07,476
as well, man. Hey...
314
00:13:08,011 --> 00:13:09,793
Oh, man.
315
00:13:10,544 --> 00:13:12,061
Yeah...
316
00:13:17,446 --> 00:13:20,459
Ooh, a terrier!
Dad, could we go play with it?
317
00:13:20,546 --> 00:13:22,882
- Yeah, let's go say hi.
- Oh, yay!
318
00:13:24,123 --> 00:13:25,625
Hey, Randall.
319
00:13:26,374 --> 00:13:27,436
Yeah.
320
00:13:27,530 --> 00:13:29,101
I'm just curious.
321
00:13:29,257 --> 00:13:32,366
Of my 300 ideas
over the past few weeks,
322
00:13:32,453 --> 00:13:34,966
how many of them
did you really think were...
323
00:13:35,327 --> 00:13:37,101
What's the word you used?
324
00:13:37,522 --> 00:13:39,552
- Stupendous.
- Or...
325
00:13:39,639 --> 00:13:42,367
how many times were you just
trying to make me feel good
326
00:13:42,454 --> 00:13:44,448
because you thought
your recently-fired wife
327
00:13:44,535 --> 00:13:45,890
needed a win?
328
00:13:47,577 --> 00:13:49,929
- Beth...
- Oh, man.
329
00:13:50,358 --> 00:13:52,421
That's what I thought.
330
00:13:52,830 --> 00:13:54,724
Actually, it's not
what I thought,
331
00:13:54,811 --> 00:13:57,554
you know,
which really sucks.
332
00:13:59,929 --> 00:14:02,271
- Hey.
- Oh, God.
333
00:14:02,358 --> 00:14:04,901
- What is it?
- Oh, man. We got to get home.
334
00:14:04,988 --> 00:14:07,322
- Come on, girls. Let's go.
- Come on.
335
00:14:07,686 --> 00:14:10,539
- Everything okay?
- Yeah.
336
00:14:40,778 --> 00:14:42,222
How we feeling?
337
00:14:43,692 --> 00:14:46,486
We felt better shoveling crap
back at my base.
338
00:14:46,573 --> 00:14:47,934
Yeah, I'll bet.
339
00:14:48,058 --> 00:14:50,794
Got about a week more to get
that junk out of your system.
340
00:14:50,881 --> 00:14:54,653
Roger that, Sarge. Glad to hear
you got a new mission.
341
00:14:58,524 --> 00:15:00,270
G.I.!
342
00:15:05,492 --> 00:15:07,771
The boy cut his foot
on the wire last week.
343
00:15:08,215 --> 00:15:10,758

- What?
394
00:18:48,602 --> 00:18:49,786
Hustle up, let's go.
395
00:18:49,873 --> 00:18:51,150
Come on.
396
00:18:58,664 --> 00:19:01,142
He's burning up.
His foot's infected.
397
00:19:02,337 --> 00:19:03,903
I'm not gonna save a kid's life
398
00:19:03,990 --> 00:19:06,458
just so he can grow up one day
and zap Americans.
399
00:19:06,743 --> 00:19:08,533
Clean and dress the wound.
400
00:19:08,632 --> 00:19:09,851
No.
401
00:19:09,938 --> 00:19:14,463
Clean and bandage the wound.
That is an order.
402
00:19:22,860 --> 00:19:24,643
He's gonna be okay.
403
00:19:24,795 --> 00:19:27,255
He's gonna be okay,
but this is gonna hurt, okay?
404
00:19:27,342 --> 00:19:28,568
It's gonna sting, ouch.
405
00:19:28,655 --> 00:19:30,002
It's okay, it's okay.
406
00:19:37,908 --> 00:19:39,302
Okay in there, Sarge?
407
00:19:39,389 --> 00:19:42,275
Yeah! We're doing good.
408
00:20:00,283 --> 00:20:01,917
Aaah.
409
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,564
He's just a kid, Nicky.
410
00:20:29,753 --> 00:20:31,822
You need to wake the hell up.
411
00:20:32,704 --> 00:20:35,481
This ville is nothing but women
412
00:20:35,568 --> 00:20:38,228
and kids and old men.
413
00:20:45,447 --> 00:20:49,000
My first CO here was
a guy
414
00:20:49,087 --> 00:20:51,064
named Captain Greg Minetto.
415
00:20:53,821 --> 00:20:55,822
"Bones," we called him.
416
00:20:57,605 --> 00:21:00,150
We were pulling security
outside Da Nang,
417
00:21:00,260 --> 00:21:02,775
and I'm brand new in-country,
418
00:21:03,234 --> 00:21:06,845
virgin, scared to death.
419
00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:10,228
Sometimes the guys
got on my ass.
420
00:21:13,041 --> 00:21:17,525
I mean, I couldn't stick on
a damn Band-Aid without shaking.
421
00:21:19,329 --> 00:21:20,414
But one time,
422
00:21:20,501 --> 00:21:24,353
Bones got fed up with them
always ragging on me, so...
423
00:21:25,165 --> 00:21:27,799
he grabs a big chicken
from the ville,
424
00:21:29,196 --> 00:21:30,634
and bam,
425
00:21:31,161 --> 00:21:33,580
chops off its head
with his Ka-Bar.
426
00:21:35,317 --> 00:21:38,725
And the chicken's flapping
around without a head,
427
00:21:38,812 --> 00:21:40,455
blood gushing,
428
00:21:41,410 --> 00:21:44,681
and Bones takes the chicken
and he tosses it to me.
429
00:21:45,048 --> 00:21:49,295
There I am, with a bloody,
flapping chicken,
430
00:21:49,735 --> 00:21:54,021
and Bones says to the guys,
"Pretend that chicken's you.
431
00:21:54,884 --> 00:21:57,586
"Pretend you're the one
flapping around,
432
00:21:57,673 --> 00:22:01,743
"screaming for a medic,
bullets still flying.
433
00:22:02,462 --> 00:22:04,106
"You best hope Nicky
doesn't mind
434
00:22:04,193 --> 00:22:07,627
trying to save your sorry ass,
because Nicky's all you got."
435
00:22:13,931 --> 00:22:17,635
And after that, the guys
showed me a little respect.
436
00:22:21,156 --> 00:22:23,262
I mean, how could you
not love Bones?
437
00:22:23,349 --> 00:22:25,220
And the villagers
loved him, too, you know?
438
00:22:25,307 --> 00:22:28,555
The old ladies, they did
his laundry, brought him food.
439
00:22:29,454 --> 00:22:31,228
There was this one.
440
00:22:32,237 --> 00:22:34,798
No teeth, but always smiling.
441
00:22:35,159 --> 00:22:38,266
She cut his hair
and talked to him
442
00:22:38,353 --> 00:22:40,689
and he would nod
like he understood.
443
00:22:44,194 --> 00:22:46,993
One night,
the VC got through the wire,
444
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,044
tossed a satchel charge
into his bunker
445
00:22:49,131 --> 00:22:53,481
and turned Cap into a big sloppy
bowl of chicken fricassee.
446
00:22:55,553 --> 00:22:58,252
They targeted Bones
and no one else.
447
00:23:02,115 --> 00:23:04,352
The old lady with no teeth
told her VC brother
448
00:23:04,439 --> 00:23:06,080
where he could find him.
449
00:23:21,431 --> 00:23:24,135
You can be nice to them
all you want, Jack.
450
00:23:27,370 --> 00:23:30,056
But they're not just women
and children.
451
00:24:12,501 --> 00:24:14,012
You here all week?
452
00:24:14,495 --> 00:24:17,108
- That's the plan.
- You?
453
00:24:17,411 --> 00:24:19,983
Um, hard to say.
454
00:24:22,827 --> 00:24:25,421
- William.
- Jesse.
455
00:24:28,017 --> 00:24:29,843
- Please, don't, uh...
- Ah.
456
00:24:30,055 --> 00:24:32,538
Let me stop you...
457
00:24:54,126 --> 00:24:55,498
Jesse?
458
00:24:56,135 --> 00:24:58,096
Technically,
cocaine is my problem,
459
00:24:58,183 --> 00:25:01,585
not, uh, sparkling rosé, so...
460
00:25:03,698 --> 00:25:06,108
- Come on.
- Where are we going?
461
00:25:06,195 --> 00:25:09,710
You need something besides
cheap wine in your stomach.
462
00:25:10,210 --> 00:25:11,701
Come on.
463
00:25:14,428 --> 00:25:15,498
All right.
464
00:25:15,661 --> 00:25:18,319
I was a bond trader
in London.
465
00:25:18,439 --> 00:25:21,318
The job was all-consuming
and put strains
466
00:25:21,405 --> 00:25:24,297
on an already complicated
467
00:25:24,384 --> 00:25:27,541
and mismatched marriage.
468
00:25:27,628 --> 00:25:30,163
Cocaine helped me keep pace
with the workload
469
00:25:30,250 --> 00:25:33,366
until the workload couldn't
keep pace with my addiction.
470
00:25:33,678 --> 00:25:35,657
I lost everything.
471
00:25:36,108 --> 00:25:37,492
Moved to the States.
472
00:25:37,579 --> 00:25:41,253
I lived with my sister
for a while in Chicago,
473
00:25:41,340 --> 00:25:44,272
and then I came to Philly,
where I worked
474
00:25:44,419 --> 00:25:46,349
front of house in a restaurant
because my accent
475
00:25:46,436 --> 00:25:48,473
- classed the place up.
- Accent classed the place up.
476
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,374
Yeah, I was at that meeting.
477
00:25:54,660 --> 00:25:56,593
Let's hear the true story.
478
00:26:04,936 --> 00:26:06,546
Okay, fine.
479
00:26:07,133 --> 00:26:11,207
You're... an inexplicably
pleasant man
480
00:26:11,294 --> 00:26:12,866
worthy of the truth.
481
00:26:17,740 --> 00:26:20,150
I started using cocaine
in the late '70s.
482
00:26:20,237 --> 00:26:22,283
I-I liked cocaine.
483
00:26:22,370 --> 00:26:24,838
I... That's not true.
484
00:26:25,740 --> 00:26:30,435
I liked Manchester United.
I love cocaine.
485
00:26:30,522 --> 00:26:32,835
Half my paycheck
went to the stuff,
486
00:26:33,256 --> 00:26:36,405
until I learned that...
487
00:26:37,439 --> 00:26:41,210
smoking crack cocaine
was cheaper.
488
00:26:42,552 --> 00:26:47,500
Also,
I was never a bond trader.
489
00:26:49,923 --> 00:26:52,522
But one thing I said is true:
490
00:26:52,847 --> 00:26:56,320
my marriage to Anissa was...
491
00:26:56,639 --> 00:26:58,600
a complicated mismatch,
492
00:26:58,787 --> 00:27:02,046
and I do have
a sister in Chicago.
493
00:27:07,403 --> 00:27:12,665
I... I don't know why
Thanksgiving depresses me.
494
00:27:12,770 --> 00:27:14,647
It's not my holiday.
495
00:27:15,178 --> 00:27:18,468
In fact,
isn't it to celebrate you
496
00:27:18,562 --> 00:27:21,608
for defeating us
in your independence?
497
00:27:21,764 --> 00:27:24,132
No. It was not.
498
00:27:25,544 --> 00:27:30,257
Anyway, I was invited
to my sister's house,
499
00:27:31,490 --> 00:27:35,464
but the people there
will ask me how I'm doing,
500
00:27:35,551 --> 00:27:40,538
and... I'm in no mood
to spin lies
501
00:27:40,625 --> 00:27:42,637
about the joys of being sober.
502
00:27:42,748 --> 00:27:45,803
You stay sober,
you won't have to lie about it.
503
00:27:48,767 --> 00:27:51,516
Look, tonight a bunch of us
sober musicians
504
00:27:51,603 --> 00:27:53,982
are getting together.
On the holidays we like to play,
505
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:56,936
uh, mostly to keep us from
getting into trouble.
506
00:27:57,032 --> 00:27:58,509
You're welcome to come.
507
00:27:58,830 --> 00:28:00,397
Good Lord.
508
00:28:01,022 --> 00:28:04,085
Listening to jazz sober
sounds awful.
509
00:28:05,287 --> 00:28:06,647
What can I bring?
510
00:28:06,734 --> 00:28:09,194
Just yourself.
We need the audience.
511
00:28:51,238 --> 00:28:53,596
So what needs to start first?
512
00:28:53,683 --> 00:28:56,632
The cranberry sauce.
You are in charge.
513
00:28:56,719 --> 00:28:59,266
- This is not a can.
- Right.
514
00:28:59,353 --> 00:29:01,385
I'm making cranberry sauce
from scratch?
515
00:29:01,472 --> 00:29:02,922
Isn't that kind of
a high-stakes duty?
516
00:29:03,009 --> 00:29:04,327
Well, Randall has
a recipe binder.
517
00:29:04,414 --> 00:29:05,642
Recipe binder, okay.
518
00:29:05,729 --> 00:29:07,262
Randall's recipes.
519
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:09,640
Okay. Of course,
color-coded,
520
00:29:09,727 --> 00:29:12,519
uh, with an entire section
for confit.
521
00:29:12,606 --> 00:29:14,961
And he's marked
our page for us.
522
00:29:15,048 --> 00:29:17,160
"Cranberry sauce with mint."
523
00:29:18,050 --> 00:29:21,224
Randall's recipe for cranberry
sauce has, like, 30 ingredients,
524
00:29:21,311 --> 00:29:23,790
including
"fresh mint from my garden."
525
00:29:23,877 --> 00:29:25,888
- Randall has an herb garden?
- Yeah.
526
00:29:25,975 --> 00:29:27,071
Okay.
527
00:29:27,158 --> 00:29:28,157
Okay, come here.
528
00:29:28,244 --> 00:29:29,647
- What is happening? Come here.
- Oh, okay, look.
529
00:29:29,734 --> 00:29:31,202
Randall is
the perfect embodiment
530
00:29:31,289 --> 00:29:33,531
of the perfect man.
He's basically your dad,
531
00:29:33,618 --> 00:29:35,765
- and I'm...
- Toby.
532
00:29:36,782 --> 00:29:39,902
Hey, me and you?
533
00:29:41,636 --> 00:29:43,105
We got this.
534
00:29:43,276 --> 00:29:44,369
We can...
535
00:29:44,456 --> 00:29:46,277
We're gonna be great hosts.
536
00:29:46,605 --> 00:29:48,207
Okay? And we're gonna
be great parents.
537
00:29:48,294 --> 00:29:49,494
And today,
we're gonna prove it.
538
00:29:49,581 --> 00:29:51,285
- Yeah. You're right.
- Okay? So let's do us.
539
00:29:51,372 --> 00:29:52,918
- Okay. Do us.
- Me and you.
540
00:29:53,005 --> 00:29:54,613
All right, KaToby on three?
541
00:29:54,862 --> 00:29:57,105
One, two, KaToby.
542
00:29:57,223 --> 00:30:01,019
Tess,
I got something for you.
543
00:30:03,169 --> 00:30:04,737
Oh. Oh.
544
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,933
Ah! What, what, what?
545
00:30:12,971 --> 00:30:15,917
Hey. Uh,
Tess needs your help.
546
00:30:16,894 --> 00:30:18,033
Why? Is she okay?
547
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,961
Yeah, fine. She just has...
She has two boxes of... things
548
00:30:22,048 --> 00:30:27,666
that, uh, a-a young woman might
need every full moon-ish.
549
00:30:29,482 --> 00:30:31,674
- Oh. Ugh.
- Yeah.
550
00:30:31,792 --> 00:30:34,401
I think this might be
her first period.
551
00:30:34,488 --> 00:30:36,416
Yeah, yeah.
She looked confused.
552
00:30:45,764 --> 00:30:47,158
Hey.
553
00:30:48,401 --> 00:30:50,150
Is everything okay?
554
00:30:50,907 --> 00:30:54,158
I'm fine,
just leave me alone.
555
00:30:55,603 --> 00:30:57,916
I will, I just...
556
00:30:58,641 --> 00:31:00,447
Is this your first one?
557
00:31:00,861 --> 00:31:02,337
Yes.
558
00:31:03,267 --> 00:31:04,806
Did you call your mom?
559
00:31:05,072 --> 00:31:06,219
They didn't answer.
560
00:31:06,306 --> 00:31:08,310
I tried calling them, like,
five times.
561
00:31:08,397 --> 00:31:10,278
I texted them, though.
562
00:31:10,572 --> 00:31:12,572
I'm sure she'll call soon.
563
00:31:14,606 --> 00:31:16,572
Is there anything
I can help with?
564
00:31:24,946 --> 00:31:26,275
Yeah.
565
00:31:29,942 --> 00:31:31,552
Do you want to come down
and help us?
566
00:31:31,639 --> 00:31:33,744
I'm never leaving this room.
567
00:31:33,859 --> 00:31:35,625
I'm too embarrassed
to see Toby.
568
00:31:35,712 --> 00:31:36,993
- Oh...
- Wait, embarrassed?
569
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,072
Hey. Tess, you have nothing
to be embarrassed about.
570
00:31:41,525 --> 00:31:43,154
And this is coming
from a woman who had
571
00:31:43,241 --> 00:31:47,033
the most embarrassing
first period ever.
572
00:31:47,570 --> 00:31:49,495
So, when I was around your age,
573
00:31:49,582 --> 00:31:52,252
we were staying at a beach house
with Miguel's family
574
00:31:52,409 --> 00:31:53,999
and I was sharing a room
with Amber,
575
00:31:54,086 --> 00:31:55,586
Miguel's daughter,
who I worshiped.
576
00:31:55,673 --> 00:31:57,503
I mean, she taught me
how to put on mascara.
577
00:31:57,590 --> 00:31:59,516
So, I was asleep
when it happened.
578
00:31:59,603 --> 00:32:01,872
So I stripped the bed, and then
I'm tip-toeing down the hall,
579
00:32:01,959 --> 00:32:04,241
and who do I run into?
Her older brother Andy.
580
00:32:04,376 --> 00:32:05,915
Who was a lifeguard.
581
00:32:06,002 --> 00:32:08,786
And of course, here I am
with this wadded-up bedding,
582
00:32:08,873 --> 00:32:12,486
and he just says, "Oh, what,
did you wet the bed, Pearson?"
583
00:32:12,622 --> 00:32:15,150
N-Now, if I say yes, everybody
at school is gonna think
584
00:32:15,237 --> 00:32:17,294
that I'm a bed-wetter
at the age of 12.
585
00:32:17,381 --> 00:32:20,110
So what do I say?
I say, "No, actually,
586
00:32:20,197 --> 00:32:23,695
"I just had my period and I need
a tampon. Do you have one?"
587
00:32:23,782 --> 00:32:25,230
He didn't know what to say.
588
00:32:25,317 --> 00:32:27,503
So, he's like stammering
and he tries to laugh if off,
589
00:32:27,590 --> 00:32:29,635
but then he just, like,
pushes past me.
590
00:32:30,802 --> 00:32:34,250
So, uh, needless to say, we've
never talked about it since.
591
00:32:34,337 --> 00:32:35,968
Anyway, I got you beat.
592
00:32:36,055 --> 00:32:37,932
- Yeah, definitely.
- Yeah.
593
00:32:41,090 --> 00:32:45,406
Anyhow, I know you have a mom,
but if there's anything
594
00:32:45,493 --> 00:32:47,596
you ever want to talk to me
about, anytime...
595
00:32:47,973 --> 00:32:50,100
I mean, pretty soon,
you're gonna have...
596
00:32:50,187 --> 00:32:51,680
your first kiss.
597
00:32:51,767 --> 00:32:54,338
And your first boyfriend.
598
00:32:55,254 --> 00:32:58,104
Or girlfriend.
599
00:33:00,996 --> 00:33:02,947
Or girlfriend.
600
00:33:03,991 --> 00:33:07,416
Yeah, or girlfriend.
601
00:33:12,504 --> 00:33:14,432
St. George came upon the ruins
602
00:33:14,519 --> 00:33:18,039
of the Rollins house and slept
on the cold sooted stones
603
00:33:18,126 --> 00:33:19,918
of the fireplace hearth.
604
00:33:20,147 --> 00:33:22,254
He awoke the next morning
with...
605
00:33:22,341 --> 00:33:24,767
Uh, I'm sorry, I...
606
00:33:25,059 --> 00:33:28,304
The last I heard, St. George
was lost in the brambles.
607
00:33:28,391 --> 00:33:30,596
Did I... did I miss something?
608
00:33:30,683 --> 00:33:33,332
Yes, 'cause you're
not listening.
609
00:33:33,496 --> 00:33:36,027
I think your mind is already
at your daughter's house.
610
00:33:36,114 --> 00:33:37,198
- No.
- Yeah.
611
00:33:37,285 --> 00:33:39,413
- No, no, it's not.
- Yes, it is.
612
00:33:39,506 --> 00:33:41,355
I thought that
you were excited
613
00:33:41,442 --> 00:33:43,134
that Amber had moved
to Scarsdale.
614
00:33:43,221 --> 00:33:45,564
I mean, we've only seen
our grandson, what,
615
00:33:45,651 --> 00:33:48,418
twice since they adopted him?
616
00:33:49,756 --> 00:33:51,262
I am excited.
617
00:33:51,981 --> 00:33:56,472
Well, in 6.5 miles,
you better act like it.
618
00:33:57,490 --> 00:33:59,832
It's just...
619
00:34:00,253 --> 00:34:02,048
I feel like a pity invite.
620
00:34:02,135 --> 00:34:03,275
- What?
- Yeah.
621
00:34:03,362 --> 00:34:05,668
I mean, the only reason
that we were asked to come over
622
00:34:05,755 --> 00:34:07,413
is because Shelly
is gonna be spending it
623
00:34:07,500 --> 00:34:09,058
with her husband's family.
624
00:34:11,012 --> 00:34:13,686
I'm sorry that you're missing
Thanksgiving for this.
625
00:34:13,794 --> 00:34:15,630
We're still gonna make it
back to Randall's
626
00:34:15,717 --> 00:34:17,031
in time for dessert.
627
00:34:17,118 --> 00:34:19,684
And besides,
I'm very much looking forward
628
00:34:19,771 --> 00:34:21,975
to spending some time
with your kids.
629
00:34:22,432 --> 00:34:24,410
It's gonna be a good day.
630
00:34:29,529 --> 00:34:31,507
Luke, you're supposed
to eat turkey
631
00:34:31,594 --> 00:34:34,262
for Thanksgiving, not Cheerios.
632
00:34:36,598 --> 00:34:38,158
Oh, honey.
633
00:34:38,245 --> 00:34:40,143
Don't be scared;
That's your grandpa.
634
00:34:40,230 --> 00:34:42,115
Nah, it's okay;
I have the same reaction
635
00:34:42,202 --> 00:34:43,872
every morning when
I look in the mirror.
636
00:34:48,296 --> 00:34:52,240
Oh, I, uh, read that Beckwith
and Hightower are merging.
637
00:34:52,327 --> 00:34:53,635
Is that a good thing
for you, Amber?
638
00:34:53,722 --> 00:34:57,028
I haven't been with Hightower
for over a year, Dad.
639
00:34:57,153 --> 00:34:58,583
Geez, Dad.
640
00:34:58,670 --> 00:35:01,382
Somebody hasn't been reading
Amber's Christmas newsletter.
641
00:35:01,469 --> 00:35:04,179
No, I do. I mean, we do.
642
00:35:04,301 --> 00:35:05,988
It's very entertaining,
by the way.
643
00:35:06,075 --> 00:35:07,756
Thanks, Rebecca.
644
00:35:10,836 --> 00:35:13,570
We haven't,
uh, seen Kevin's new movie, yet.
645
00:35:13,745 --> 00:35:15,030
Hmm.
646
00:35:15,157 --> 00:35:18,072
It's actually...
it's quite good.
647
00:35:18,159 --> 00:35:20,100
I've heard mixed.
648
00:35:20,834 --> 00:35:23,635
Yeah? I think it's, um,
649
00:35:23,722 --> 00:35:28,453
at a 94% on Rotten Tomatoes;
it's a site
650
00:35:28,540 --> 00:35:31,071
- that Kevin taught me about.
- Come on, you're killing me!
651
00:35:31,158 --> 00:35:33,288
Cowboys scored, Connor.
652
00:35:33,951 --> 00:35:36,014
Sorry, we have Washington
and the points.
653
00:35:36,406 --> 00:35:38,090
No, it's okay.
654
00:35:38,192 --> 00:35:41,284
Uh, we're a big football family,
actually, so I understand.
655
00:35:41,371 --> 00:35:42,504
Hmm.
656
00:35:46,113 --> 00:35:48,539
This vegan stuffing
is delicious, Amber.
657
00:35:48,626 --> 00:35:50,434
Well, thanks, Dad.
658
00:35:50,777 --> 00:35:53,602
What about you, Luke, do you
like your mother's stuffing?
659
00:35:53,689 --> 00:35:55,497
Do you like the vegan stuffing?
660
00:35:56,650 --> 00:35:58,750
Do any of these side dishes
have nuts in them?
661
00:35:58,837 --> 00:36:00,379
I get a little allergic.
662
00:36:00,466 --> 00:36:03,949
Uh, yes, actually,
the sweet potato casserole
663
00:36:04,036 --> 00:36:05,580
- has some slivered almonds.
- Ah...
664
00:36:05,667 --> 00:36:07,371
I-I didn't know, I'm so sorry.
665
00:36:07,458 --> 00:36:08,994
- I didn't, I didn't know.
- First you steal my father
666
00:36:09,081 --> 00:36:10,518
from my mother,
and now you're trying to kill
667
00:36:10,605 --> 00:36:12,219
my brother-in-law.
668
00:36:14,762 --> 00:36:17,634
Sorry, too soon?
669
00:36:18,184 --> 00:36:23,028
No, no. Not too soon, actually.
670
00:36:26,901 --> 00:36:29,676
You know, after
your mother and I split,
671
00:36:30,082 --> 00:36:33,390
I promised my best friend
and myself that I would fight
672
00:36:33,477 --> 00:36:35,426
to keep you kids in my life.
673
00:36:36,442 --> 00:36:39,488
And for a long time, I tried.
674
00:36:40,375 --> 00:36:42,961
I called every day,
I sent Christmas gifts.
675
00:36:43,048 --> 00:36:45,301
I tried to plan things.
676
00:36:47,285 --> 00:36:50,831
And I was lucky if I got
an e-mail back from you.
677
00:36:52,051 --> 00:36:53,705
So after a while...
678
00:36:55,279 --> 00:36:56,791
Well, I gave up.
679
00:37:00,860 --> 00:37:03,232
Well, you have
the Pearsons now, at least.
680
00:37:06,821 --> 00:37:10,533
Yes. Yes, I do.
681
00:37:12,326 --> 00:37:16,180
In heartbreak,
ten years after her husband
682
00:37:16,267 --> 00:37:19,971
and my best friend died,
and your mother had remarried...
683
00:37:21,109 --> 00:37:22,887
Rebecca and I
found each other.
684
00:37:23,434 --> 00:37:26,674
And we filled a hole
in each other's lives.
685
00:37:27,091 --> 00:37:29,400
Now, you don't have to be
happy for us,
686
00:37:29,693 --> 00:37:33,650
but we're not gonna apologize
for being together.
687
00:37:34,332 --> 00:37:37,571
So take all the shots
at me that you want to,
688
00:37:37,658 --> 00:37:39,901
leave me out
of the family vacations,
689
00:37:39,988 --> 00:37:41,794
leave me out
of the inside jokes,
690
00:37:41,881 --> 00:37:44,297
but the one time a decade
that you see Rebecca,
691
00:37:44,384 --> 00:37:47,474
you show my wife some respect.
692
00:38:04,129 --> 00:38:06,934
Does anyone know the score
of the football game?
693
00:38:07,172 --> 00:38:08,973
It's 21 to 7.
694
00:38:13,161 --> 00:38:17,769
Don't tell Mom and Dad
about... you know.
695
00:38:19,207 --> 00:38:22,458
I won't, but Tess...
696
00:38:22,590 --> 00:38:24,997
your parents are going
to love you no matter what.
697
00:38:25,146 --> 00:38:26,871
So you should tell them.
698
00:38:34,889 --> 00:38:36,731
Hey, Babe.
699
00:38:37,481 --> 00:38:39,128
- What is this?
- Uh...
700
00:38:39,215 --> 00:38:41,839
This is what happens
when you leave me
701
00:38:41,926 --> 00:38:44,433
by myself to handle
Thanksgiving dinner.
702
00:38:44,543 --> 00:38:47,418
The trouble started when the
cranberry sauce boiled over,
703
00:38:47,505 --> 00:38:49,651
it exploded all over me,
and then the trouble ended
704
00:38:49,738 --> 00:38:51,688
when I went to baste the turkey,
then dropped the turkey,
705
00:38:51,775 --> 00:38:55,393
then stepped onto,
nay, into the turkey.
706
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,943
So I had to improvise.
707
00:38:59,543 --> 00:39:01,261
You know what this is?
708
00:39:02,041 --> 00:39:03,706
A disaster.
709
00:39:04,173 --> 00:39:05,369
No.
710
00:39:05,485 --> 00:39:08,463
This is, like,
Jack Pearson-level magic.
711
00:39:08,580 --> 00:39:09,619
Blasphemy.
712
00:39:09,706 --> 00:39:12,197
- Take it, you take it back.
- I will not.
713
00:39:12,786 --> 00:39:14,677
I will not.
714
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,538
How's Tess?
715
00:39:16,625 --> 00:39:18,063
♪ When there's no choice... ♪

00:39:21,243 --> 00:39:22,858

719
00:39:24,645 --> 00:39:26,385
So although
I have great respect
720
00:39:26,472 --> 00:39:28,400
for your university,
I find the premise
721
00:39:28,487 --> 00:39:29,989
of your question to be flawed.
722
00:39:30,127 --> 00:39:33,575
No one person has had the
greatest impact on my life.
723
00:39:33,739 --> 00:39:37,750
No one person can be my MVP,
my most valuable person.
724
00:39:37,837 --> 00:39:41,293
- Oof.
- Shh. Hush. Go on, honey.
725
00:39:42,542 --> 00:39:44,006
A British anthropologist named

Robin Dunbar wrote
we meet approximately
727
00:39:46,196 --> 00:39:47,463
three new people a day.
728
00:39:47,550 --> 00:39:50,098
That's 1,095 people a year.
729
00:39:50,566 --> 00:39:52,478
I'm 17,
which means I've met
730
00:39:52,565 --> 00:39:55,192
18,615 people so far,
731
00:39:55,279 --> 00:39:56,360
so how
I'm I supposed to pick
732
00:39:56,447 --> 00:39:58,649
the most impactful one
out of 18,000?
733
00:39:58,736 --> 00:40:02,432
Good morning Vietnam!
734
00:40:02,519 --> 00:40:03,770
- Hey!
- Oooh!

00:40:03,857 --> 00:40:06,278
- Sorry. I can't stop doing that.
- He really can't.
736
00:40:06,365 --> 00:40:07,952
Now you might say, "Randall,
737
00:40:08,082 --> 00:40:10,032
most of these people
are essentially strangers."
738
00:40:10,119 --> 00:40:11,258
Happy Thanksgiving.
739
00:40:11,345 --> 00:40:12,309
But...
740
00:40:12,396 --> 00:40:15,490

essential stranger, right?

I was left at a fire station
by my birth father,
765
00:41:34,511 --> 00:41:36,165
and then I was found
by a fireman who took me
766
00:41:36,252 --> 00:41:40,309
to a hospital, where a doctor
showed me to my father,
767
00:41:40,644 --> 00:41:42,124
