Instead, the story line works as a showcase for Beth and Randalls relationship.

Dancing to K-Ci and JoJo!

Which, really, is simply just to be there.

We visit with Beth and Randall in college, where theyre celebrating their six-month anniversary.

Shes not going to the ballet.

She wants the thing she cant have.

The two hold each other as they dance in the dorm and again in the studio.

It is swoony as hell.

The music part of the music and the mirror belongs to Kate and Rebecca, per usual.

This episode feels like a biggie in that respect.

We check up on Kate and Rebecca in the late 90s, post-Jacks death and Kates abortion.

Only, Kate doesnt end up going to the interview.

She comes home that night and tells her mom that instead, she got a job at a diner.

If Rebecca wants to be proud of one of her children, she should focus on Randall.

Even Kevin has more to offer her than Kate.

And Rebecca never does, as were reminded by the present-day Rebecca and Kate story line.

This Is the Rest

Hey!

There are finally repercussions for Kevin just walking off a movie set!

Not a great sign!

Meanwhile, not one person has mentioned Kevin pulling Josh Malina out of a burning car.

Zoe means it as a compliment, Kevin is unsettled by its cutting accuracy.

So, when is this Deja-Malika-Jennifer thing going to blow up in everyones faces?

Just sitting there dispensing relationship advice to her parents?

Let her be a kid!

We get it!!

Things are going to get worse!!

A very nice summary of this show and these recaps, to be honest.
