What would Jack Pearson do? In the moments before Kevin is due to take the stage on the opening night of his play, he asks himself this question. The answer had all of us crying. We watched Kevin run to his brother, Randall, who is still at the office, curled up on the floor, in the midst of a breakdown, and just hold him. A beautiful moment for brothers who have not had an easy going relationship, and a full circle moment for Kevin, to do the right thing. We also examine the other Pearson relationships played out in this episode and you better believe we’re taking sides! So today, we're talking about mental health, healthful relationships, and the return of Sophie all these years later… and yes, Alex Breckenridge (Sophie) is here with us too!
