It’s a little harder for those of us in the audience to fully buy into since, ahem, thanks to that five-year flash-forward in the season-five finale, we all know that Kate is headed straight for a big ol’ divorce at any moment. Kevin thinks it’s comforting, so that’s nice. We should all be on high emotional-support alert.īut it’s true! As the Pearson clan grapples with the news that Rebecca’s condition is getting worse - she spends the entire episode searching for the word caboose in some very cool memory sequences - it’s Kate who reminds us how far they’ve come and that while this may be a dark time, the Pearsons, like Bane before them, were born in the darkness, and they always manage to find some light eventually. A sure sign this is the case: In this episode, Kate is the Pearson exuding the most optimism and hope for the future. It’s tradition! And with this being The End, I think we can all assume the devastation will be kicked up a few notches. As This Is Us delivers its final act, we should all prepare to be emotionally devastated. Those are just some cold, hard facts, people. The Pearsons are going to make us cry this year.
