This Is Us Simply Performed a Merciless Prank On Us

This Is Us, nonetheless enjoying with our feelings 5 seasons in. 

We knew that Kevin (Justin Hartley) was anxiously awaiting the arrival of his and Madison’s (Caitlin Thompson) twins whereas making an attempt to movie an enormous film in Vancouver, and we knew based mostly on an episode synopsis that he was embarking on a “irritating highway journey.” So when tonight’s episode—the primary in practically a month—started with a automobile crash and a shot of Kevin’s driver’s license laying beside it, we feared absolutely the worst. 

We acquired a bit mad, truthfully. We merely weren’t within the temper to fret about any of the Pearsons, so when it was revealed that it was a imply fake-out, we could not resolve if we had been extra mad or much less mad. It was impolite to place us by way of that, however good that Kevin wasn’t truly in peril. 

It ended up being a person performed by Scandal‘s Josh Malina who had been in a nasty automobile accident. Kevin was on his strategy to the airport in Seattle to attempt to catch a flight to L.A., since Madison was in labor. He handed the accident and stopped to assist, giving up his jacket to assist the person out. That is when his pockets fell out, and we knew his journey to the airport was doomed.
