Tuesdays 9:00 PM on NBCThis Is Us Quotes
Hey, I saw Elijah's car. You wanna meet Elijah? He's Madison's new beau. Our dynamic is weird and wildly uncomfortable.
Kevin
Kate [singing]: Seven steps of wetness.
Toby: [singing]: And sandboxes full of tetanus.
Malik: I didn't do this cause of you. I did it for her. It wasn't fair to her. Or to either of us. I just love her so much.
Randall: That's the thing about first loves, man. They shape you and they affect you for the rest of your life.
I remember how quickly you took to swimming. That first year, you were skinny and all limbs. Then every year after that, all you kids kept changing. Every second, every week, every year, you got bigger and stronger and better. You were becoming.
Rebecca
Are you sure we're allowed in here? We've broken enough laws for one night.
Randall
Beth [on phone]: I finally got ahold of Deja. She's in Boston with Malik. She wants us to know she's fine and we shouldn't worry.
Randall: We're in Connecticut. If we leave now, we can be there by nightfall.
Beth: Okay, love you.
[Randall hangs up]
Rebecca: Can I give you some advice? Give Deja space.
Randall: Give her space?
Rebecca: Give her the space to figure this out. Just for tonight. She said not to worry and I think you should trust that.
Randall: Okay. So if we're not hitting the road, what do we do?
Randall: I was not like this with Beth.
Rebecca: No, you were not, but not everyone's first love story is the same.
Rebecca: Okay, I know this is very overwhelming, but we should all take a deep breath.
Randall: Or maybe we should have Kate handle it since she handles all the big stuff nowadays.
Randall: Deja. Dropping out of high school and getting your GED so you can live with your 18-year-old single dad boyfriend isn't good enough for you.
Deja: You don't get to decide that.
Randall: Yes I do. You are my daughter.
Deja: No, I'm not! Tess and Annie are your daughters. I'm just some girl you took from her mother.
Beth: I'm sure she has her reasons, hon.
Randall: I know.
Beth: And it's Thanksgiving. I told you there would be drama.
You're living the life you want to live, being supermom to the kids and living with your brother. You finally get to be the most realized version of yourself and all you needed to do was get me out of the house.
Toby
Kate: Looking at you here, you're the happiest you've ever been. Why don't you admit it?
Toby: Yes, I am happy. And this may seem like a strange question to ask my wife, but don't you want that for me?
Kate: Yes, of course I want that for you.
Toby: Then why doesn't it seem like it?
Kate: Because I don't know you anymore.
