But I only had that for a little while until we had, This is very African-American of me. We moved to a Fleetwood Cadillac, right? And the Fleetwood was in our, that's the car that I learned to drive on. So when dad passed away, mom has the car and we shared that car all the way through high school. And she had it through college, et cetera, probably had it for about 14, 16 years.
Side note, real quick, I'm gonna let you finish your story, because when I found out that you got nominated for your first Emmy Award, you were working with your dad on a car in the garage, and I told you that you had gotten nominated. You're like, what? Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, and then we sorted it out at the end of the show. That's awesome. Yeah. So wait, let's talk about a little bit of the show. You mean this is us? This is why I do this. You mean this is us? That's the one that I was talking about. Let's talk about it. There is, so there's flashes.
Weirdo Yankovic was a big deal. Still is, man. He still is. Thank you. I apologize.
I apologize. And it's so funny too, because it's the bridge and you're like, oh, I can't look at the bridge. And he holds your hand and he's like, guys, maybe we just give mom a little bit of quiet. But Randall starts talking about, do you know what the fear of bridges is called?
I can't remember what it's called.
No, agoraphobia is like fear of public spaces, whatever. Yeah, exactly.
It was great.
They went for it with gusto, too.
And it was so, just the interest, just seeing you, like, it was because I know you, right? And you're a wonderful actor. I was like, Mandy Moore's really acting. Like, she's scared to go across the screen.
I want to talk about like, but just sort of flashing between the two timelines. I want to take one timeline at a time. So maybe we do, we either do the funeral timeline or the one beyond that.
All right, great. He also has these one-on-ones with the kids, or at least he has a one-on-one with Kate and he has a one-on-two with Kevin and Randall, right? The Kevin and Randall one is he's teaching Randall how to drive a car. Yeah. Randall's very, you know, cautious to begin with. Kev's in the backseat like, yo, man, are we going to get to wherever we need to go anytime soon?
He's like, hey, that's my first time behind the wheel. Just give me a second. And then they just start razzing each other. It's like, you're still gonna be 40 living in their parents' house or whatever. And he's like, at least I will have enjoyed the affections of a woman's body or something like that, you know? And they just start messing with each other.
And then Randall almost gets into an accident and like could have been really, really costly. And both of them at the same time are like, oh, we shouldn't have done that.
Dad's bum. And Jack is like, get out. Okay. And he's like, you can walk home. Like it's five miles. He's like, I don't care. He's home. He's working on the car, whatnot. They walk back and they are truly apologetic. Like you have that look of like, you know, maybe I messed up. They're like, no, no, we messed up. We're sorry. It's never going to happen again.
Then Jack breaks into like, you know, me and my brother, when we were your age, we had each other's back, man. Like, I can't understand it. And then you see them both go like.
He never talks about Nikki, you know what I'm saying? It's like, what's there to talk about? You know, he went to the war, he died, that's that. But when we were your age, and I love how, like, Milo's like, look, yeah, I don't, but I need to make this point. This is how important this point is. Totally, totally. You know, because there's going to come a point he starts to talk to everybody.
Eventually, he says it to Rebecca earlier, right? Like, you know, you're going to be around longer than I'm going to be around, right? And he tells you at the tree, like, I just don't want to be in the ground. Let me be out in nature. Like, that would be something that would be nice for me, right? He tells the fellas, I'm not going to be around all the time.
And you're going to be able to look back on this time in your life. And it's just going to be the two of you and your sister that know what you guys went through together. Like, you guys need to start to have each other's back because I can't do it. Forever. Right. He has the same conversation when he's talking to Kate, who's ditching school to go and meet Atlantis Morissette. Atlantis Morissette.
