Season 5 Recap
The last season showcased the real-life situation of a family dealing with the pandemic Covid-19. The female lead, Rebecca (Mandy Moore) is speculated to be suffering from dementia who couldn’t visit a hospital but stays in quarantine with Miguel (Jon Huertas) in Pennsylvania.
The story also witnesses Toby (Chris Sullivan) losing his job, with Kevin (Justin Hartley), and Randall (Sterling K. Brown) engaged in a vicious fight, the ugliest till now. They are quick to make up as well though.
The show also welcomed a bunch of babies on board, with Kevin’s twins and Kate (Chrissy Metz) and Toby’s adopted daughter. By the end of the season, Rebecca is sorry about not being vocal about her birth parents to Randall and apologizes to him.
Toby gets a new job where he has to be out three days a week, away from his family. Kevin and Madison (Caitlin Thompson) don’t get married as they thought!
Rebecca requests Kevin to build her the house of her father’s dreams, and the most shocking event that happens by the end is that Kate is seen getting married to her co-worker, Phillip, in the future, signaling that her marriage with Toby is in question.
This Is Us Season 6 Plot
One event that we’re going to witness for sure is Kate getting married to Phillip and so her marriage with Toby ends. With Rebecca’s dementia going on from season 4, we would witness her condition getting worse even to the point that she starts forgetting her own son!
Nicky will supposedly get married to a mystery lady, as per the flashbacks, and things between Kevin and Madison, along with their twins would stay amicable.
From what the members of ‘This Is Us’ iterated, the season will be ending in a very happy place and we just can’t wait enough!
