Bawled my eyes out... *spoilers*


This episode was amazing! I cried so much. Baby William was such a cutie, right up until Randall was holding William's face telling him it's going to be okay. Ah, I cried so much. So so much.

Didn't expect it to happen in this episode, but it's so depressing. Such a beautiful episode.

I warned my husband when the episode started, "If William dies tonight, I will be sobbing. Be warned." He said, "I know, I know...me too." And did I ever cry! I thought it was so beautifully done, so heartbreaking, yet so life affirming. I loved how William wanted to pay his respects and thank Jack. I just wish he could have seen the ducks one more time.

Yes, it was exceptional. Such a beautiful, moving episode. One of the best episodes of the season. Hands down, This Is Us is the best show on tv right now.

Agree with everyone here. Everything about this episode was perfect!

Just when I think this show couldn't get any better... then this happens.

From beginning to end, this episode was superb. The two men are amazing actors (this episode needs to be sent in for the Emmy's). The flashback stories, the music, Randall holding his father's face in his hands, the damn ducks.....

I am wrecked for the rest of the day

That episode KILLED me!!!! Jack's is next and may be much worse :(. It really stinks thinking of losing your parents and how you'll deal with it.

You're welcome!! :)

Same. I cried so much! My face was red and blotchy and I went to bed with a killer headache and woke up with one just as bad. One of the saddest hour of tv!

Ah it was beautiful. I even choked up a bit, and I never cry! I thought Amanda Warren, who plays his mother, was also extraordinary.

Just gorgeous, with Randall channeling Jack as William passed on, and even down to the little ducks at the end.

I thought this was going to be the last in the series, but glad to see there's 2 more. Probably going to have to go through it with Jack now... as he dies when the kids are 15 and which is the age they are in the flashbacks now.

I'm seriously not looking forward to Jack dying. I don't think I'll be able to take it, but I'm still going to watch it.
I just hope Milo is in more flashbacks in the next season.

Yes, that was an amazing and very emotional episode. It brought a tear or two to my eyes, and that is no mean feat. This is one of the two best shows on TV imho. The other one is Legion, which is brilliant and a total mind f**k.

I just finished this episode. Sobbed like crazy during the last few minutes :(
It was sad that Rebecca kept him away from Randall all this time. I loved William.
