This Is Us
Tuesdays 9:00 PM on NBCThis Is Us Season 6 Episode 3: "Four Fathers" Quotes
Toby: When you're a kid, all the houses you build are square because you think it's the only shape there is. But it turns out the triangle is the strongest shape out there. It can withstand any type of pressure. So maybe you need to stop thinking of your family as a square and think of it as a triangle instead. You, Frannie, and Nicky.
Kevin: What the hell are you saying?
Toby: I don't even know.
Beth: There's no way we're going to ground this out of her. Deja is in love.
Randall: But that doesn't change what happened.
Beth: She feels like we did in the beginning. If someone told us we couldn't see each other for months, we would have found a way to be together.
Randall: So that means there should be no consequences?
Beth: Oh, there will be consequences. They're not seeing each other again til they come out with the iPhone 30. But this is much bigger than what happened this weekend. We thought Deja was playing Candy Land but she was out there playing the game of Life. She's not a child and we're going to have to adjust to that.
Kevin: This sucks. You get all of the firsts and I get to hang out by the phone and hope you send me a text.
Madison: I sent you a video right away.
Kevin: Yes, thank you for that. I just feel so connected to my kids right now.
Madison: I'm sorry that you're feeling your feelings or whatever you're doing, but you don't know how hard it is for me. Yes, Frannie took her first steps and it was adorable but an hour before that Nick barfed all over me and I had to figure out how to get it out of my hair before Elijah came over so I don't feel completely revolting. Look, I know you want to be there for all the firsts but we are not together and so that means there are times when one of us is going to feel like we're missing something.
Philip: I thought I was finally going to meet the famous Toby.
Kate: Yeah. He had to stay home with the kids.
Philip: Kids are the worst. That's why I go out of my way never to be around them.
Randall: She took a bus four states away and we didn't know anything about it. What are we going to do?
Beth: Let's kill her. Dig a hole in the backyard and bury her.
The exciting news is that Frannie ate a carrot. I know about this because Madison sent me a carrot emoji, not because I was actually there to witness it.
Kevin
Jack: How did I become that dad who leaves before breakfast and doesn't come home til after dinner?
Rebecca: My dad worked a lot and I still love him.
Jack: Comparing me to your dad isn't helping.
