Check out the This Is Us premiere recap/post mortem here. This Is Us. It continues with the same heart and humor displayed in the premiere, delivering warmth and comfort as handily as though it were a bowl of matzo ball soup fresh out of the kitchen. On the whole, the hour gives us more detail on the drama’s central family, allows Kate to cut loose a little and sticks not one but two characters in some seriously dopey haberdashery.

When everyone comes down to eat, we see that Kevin, Randall and Kate are a lot older than when we first met them — I’d estimate they’re 8 or 9 — and that there’s a simmering tension between Rebecca and Jack. Breakfast is sugary cereal for the boys and cantaloupe and cottage cheese (aka ’8. Kate, a disparity that Jack tries to ease by sprinkling some of the cereal on top of his daughter’s dish. Guys, I have to be up front here: We’re only on Episode 2, and Kate’s history with weight/food/body image already too closely mirrors my own. I may need someone to hold my hand through this season. The flashbacks, interspersed through the hour, inform us that Jack and Rebecca’s marriage is creaking a bit under the strain of raising three kids. The main way this manifests is in him spending too much time at the bar after work, pounding bourbon with his best friend, Miguel (Castle.

Miguel gently warns Jack that Rebecca is “the gold standard of wives” and that “You married way, way above your station. I’d be careful not to give her a reason to notice.” And if that sounds like the nicest, only- platonic- no- way- there’s- anything- else- going- on- here thing you’ve ever heard a bro say about his bro’s lady, may I suggest you stick around until the end of this recap? She explains that she’s putting in 9- level work, and “I’m done letting you lower our score.”Jack spends the night sleeping outside their bedroom door “like a Labrador,” she notes with affection the next morning. He begs her forgiveness as he promises to give up alcohol cold- turkey, adding he’ll be a “1. The kids wake up to find their parents making out on the hallway floor, and that sounds gross, but it’s cute as the trio piles on and there’s laughing and smiles and I’M SURE THERE’S NO MARITAL HEARTACHE WHATSOEVER AHEAD.

Being pretty and earnest doesn’t mean that you can wear stuff from the Urban Outfitters clearance bin on your head. Take off that stupid ski cap. No one at your agent’s office is going to get serious about a discussion of your career prospects if you look like the kid in the freshman dorm who knows the best weed hook- ups.

Kevin expects an exciting examination of how to angle his future, post- his Manny freakout. Kevin gets some come- to- Jesus real talk from his agent, Lanie (Sons of Anarchy. Crestfallen, he realizes that he’s got to talk to the network head at a party at Lanie’s that night in order to grovel and get back to his Manny duties.

COCKTAILS AND CONTRACTS. And when Kevin invites his sister to the party — so she can buck him up when he tells the network he definitely wants out of his contract — the stress over finding something to wear manifests in Kate going off on her fellow Overeaters Anonymous members. Or, as Toby puts it: “You Hulked out on a bunch of fatties.” (Heh.) While making it clear that he wants to be her boyfriend for realsies, he says he’s going to the party with her and they’re going to have some “non- fat time” where they can just cut loose and relax. So they do. The pair toss back shots and hit the dance floor at Lanie’s party, and Kate enjoys herself for all of 9.

They are likely laughing at your date’s saddle shoes and hat- peacock feather combination, honey, but that’s neither here nor there. But Toby refuses to let her wallow, so they start imbibing tequila like it’s their calling.

So, the bigwig adds, Kevin will finish out his existing contract or “I’ll be forced to Nagasaki your life and career.” Ouch. The one upside of this chilling conversation is the inebriated shuffle that Kate and Toby do as Kevin tries to explain his current effed state. Bravo, Chrissy Metz. You drunk dancing is all of us drunk dancing. Sloshed Kate = fun.

Later, Kevin is near tears as he calls Randall. It’s clear the two aren’t as close as Kate and Randall are, but there’s hope. But you’ve still got time.”) As Randall warms to his brother, he reminds him that “Mom and Dad didn’t raise no whores, except briefly, during Kate’s eyeliner phase.” (Ha!) Then they both — along with Kate, who wanders over during the conversation — recite a cheer about triplet- hood their dad used to chant with them when they were kids. Would this happen in real life? Probably not. But I Do Not Care. Later, Kate sobers slightly and gets sad as she tells Toby that she can’t ever stop thinking about her weight.

And he understands. Then Kevin announces that “I told them to go screw themselves” and muses a future in theater (aka the only acting medium he’s now legally able to pursue). RELATEDAsk Ausiello: Spoilers on Arrow, Grimm, Big Bang, This Is Us, Empire, Flash, Chi Fire, Gilmore Girls, New Girl and More. FOR REAL: WHO IS YOUR DADDY? It’s clear the girls are smitten with their grandfather (whom they don’t know is their grandfather), and Randall is going out of his way to set up doctor’s appointments and the like to deal with William’s Stage IV stomach cancer. But when William starts asking to borrow bus fare and then disappearing for the better part of every day, Beth begins to worry that his presence in their house won’t be good for the family — Randall, in particular. So she sits the old man down and point- blank asks him if he’s really sick, if he’s using drugs, and where he goes when he leaves during the day.

The answers: yes, no and his apartment in Philadelphia. Randall enters the conversation just as William says, “I have a cat! He adds that even though he’s been given a literal death sentence, he feels so much better now that he’s able to hang out with the girls. I’m interested to see how the Beth- William relationship plays out as the series progresses, because that look she gives him the next morning when he helps one of the girls with her asthma inhaler isn’t 1. Thank you, God, for bringing this reminder of life’s fragility into our midst.”Anyway, the doorbell rings, and the girls go to get it. Wait, what? Now it’s your turn.
