i am a MESS!! Watched the episode in the middle of my night, it was 3 am, bc I wasn´t able to wait, on the other hand, I did not want to see it at all :D

What should I say, i think I can´t watch the episode for a while now, the first minutes were horrible, my heart started racing, i am not kidding ..

and what a suprise jack is jack until the end, he saved his family, and saved some stuff too, that was so heartbreaking, and at the end I think he sent rebecca out of the room, bc he already feels someting goes wrong with him .... the reason why he died was not a surprise, but it still sucks so much, on the other hand i am releived that the cat is out of the bag - tbh for me it was easier bc we did not seeh him acutally dying, I thought there will be a lot more drama at this specific moment, - like in greys anatomy, or ER or some other medical shows ... mandy did an awesome job, it hurts so much, seeing rebecca reactions, or better saying non reaction ... I wonder if we see more from this scene, u know, like a goodbye scene in the hospital ...

it was very interesting to see how everbody is dealing with the anniversary - all very typical reactions from the kids ... adult kevin trys to run away from everything, like so often, and than he understands he needs to "talk" to jack - this seen kills me, and the phone call was kind of funny tbh ...

kate is still dealing with her feelings - and I totally get that, its nothing u can forgot, just learn to live with it ... i still hear teen kates screaming, it was horrible..

and randall just overdoing everything :D , but I felt sad for him that nobody in his family want to enjoy the superbowl as family event - in america thats THE THING isnt it?? - and his little speech for the lizard, i just waited for a break down tbh ...

older rebecca just makes me so sad in this episode, I know she is happy again now, and she deserves it, but i don´t know I felt so bad for her , alone in the living room , eating lasagne, and watching the superbowl .. at least at the end she was with kevin, and they looked really happy *lol*

and the last scenes! WTF! :D Adult tess as social worker, I just thought ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh :D - and I thought this little boy is the new family member - bugger!! .. but it was great to see what tess makes about her experiences with forster care and adoptions and so on .......

and deja is back, forever?!?!

I was thinking about everything after i finished this episode, and I really want to see a WHAT IF episode ... just one episode where not everything burst into flames ...

I don't know how you manage to write all of this, I cannot talk about anything!

I worte this hours after I watch this episode, I watched this episode in the middle of my night, bc I thought I do not suffer enough *lol*

I really thought we would see him die too, and was very relieved as well. I had to pause the video to cry and get some tissues, because I made the stupid mistake of not taking the box before watching. I always have tissues when I watch TIU *lol* - I thought about this scene a lot tbh, the fact that we did not see him dying, its still easier for me, but I really thought we will see a goodbye scene after he passed - but perhaps we will see that in another flashback ...It would be interesting to see the scene in the opposite way, the camera stay with jack´s dead and we see rebecca far away in the hall on the phone ...
and the fact jack is calling after he passed and she reacts with a smile - before she knows he is dead - still gives me the chills..


I'm curious to see the others in that future!
yeah me too, and I hope everybody is alive ^^
