This Is Us Season 1, Episode 14 Recap: I Call Marriage

Andrea Towers
Feb 08, 2017

**Warning: This post contains spoilers, so if you haven’t watched the latest episode of This Is Us, stop reading!**

At this point, I’m pretty sure I owe This Is Us my therapy bill. Actually, forget the bill. This show owes ME therapy, because each week is a new emotional rollercoaster that manages to gut punch me even if I don’t think it will. Although, I’ll admit that knowing what tonight’s episode focused on, I was prepared for Feelings with a capital F. “I Call Marriage” took us back to the day that Jack and Rebecca got married. In present day, we got to see Kate, Kevin and Randall grapple with their own feelings of love, in different ways.

A joyous Jack and Rebecca start off the episode, having just come from getting hitched. The most important thing to take away from this flashback? JACK HAS A BEARD. Seriously, the evolving facial hair of Milo Ventimiglia in this show may just be the best thing ever. Miguel gives them a rousing and adorable speech at their reception, and then we flash forward to some years later. As with any relationship, the fire has dwindled a little, but that’s okay, because Jack and Rebecca still are OTP. But we do learn over dinner that Miguel and his wife Shelly are getting a divorce. Jack’s upset and Rebecca’s shaken, and we’re finally getting some insight into Miguel and how he might have fit into Rebecca’s life after Jack’s death. Speaking of that, these flashbacks after the wedding don’t have a time period, but we’ll assume it’s late 80’s given that Jack’s mustache is not a beard, but a goatee. Either way, from the glimpse we get of young Kate, it seems the kids are visibly older, so I half wonder if we’re closer to the time of Jack’s death. In which case, these flashbacks just HURT. (Also, Jack, stop foreshadowing your death with the line “you stay together until you die, period.” It’s not nice.)

Jack goes to find Miguel, confronting him about his divorce. Miguel tells him nothing bad happened… him and Shelly just drifted and stopped noticing each other. Meanwhile, Rebecca gets a talk after singing at the club. Ben wants her to go on tour, but Rebecca’s unsure if she can do that to Jack and her family. When she comes home, she finds Jack dressed up. He wants to take her out, and Rebecca’s confused, but you don’t say no to Jack Pearson. He blindfolds her and drives her to their first apartment, which he’s apparently rented out and lit with candles and lights and blankets. IN CASE YOU ALL WERE WONDERING WHERE KEVIN GOT HIS ROMANTIC GRAND GESTURES FROM, LOOK AT THE CASE OF ONE MR. JACK PEARSON, HUSBAND EXTRAORDINAIRE. (Sorry. Jack makes me emotional. Also, the soap dish — formerly broken due to shower sex — was fixed.)

Jack and Rebecca end the night drinking champagne in the bathroom and cuddling while Jack brings out their vows as a last surprise. And then… Rebecca tells him she wants to go on tour after all.

PRESENT DAY: KATE

Kate’s still trying to make her weight loss immersion camp program work. But things get complicated when Toby shows up to surprise her. At first, Kate is thrilled and happy to see her fiancé. But when Toby talks about getting them a room and going into town, Kate gets a little wary. After all, she’s got her routines here. Toby’s already feeling a little meh, and to make things worse, he meets Duke. Toby decides to get himself a day pass to her classes, light up sneakers and all, but Kate’s not having it because he’s clearly invading her space. They argue afterwards about Toby’s presence at camp, because Kate is angry that he’s not taking it seriously and Toby’s angry that she left him alone in New York after his surgery. He gives her his last surprise — his grandmother’s ring — and then we see Kate on the elliptical trying to work off her frustration and feelings. Duke joins her, and has a really jerky conversation about how he’s sure she’s gonna end up in his cabin soon, and… yeah. Ugh. Next!

PRESENT DAY: KEVIN

Kevin “Grand Gestures” Pearson starts his rekindling of love with Sophie by commandeering the booth at the diner where they sat together in the 8th grade and had conversations about their dreams. He also orders her lava fries. (LAVA FRIES FTW.) Sophie is NOT happy about Kevin waltzing back into her life like this, but everyone loves lava fries, so…needless to say, she stays. Kevin tries to talk to Sophie about what she’s doing with her life, because he never stopped thinking about her — she’s apparently a nurse manager now and “pretty badass” but when Kevin hits a chord, she gets up and bolts. They end up on the subway (in a stalled car, no less) arguing about their relationship. And again, we don’t get much, because This Is Us intends to tease big things about its characters just to toy with our emotions. But we do know now that Kevin cheated on her and that’s why their marriage was ruined. Oy.

Kevin makes Sophie talk to her, though, because he knows her too darn well. (So well he created a fake Facebook profile JUST to keep up on her life…) She tells him about her life since the divorce: she moved back in with her parents, she tried to date, and she even married again, even though it didn’t work out. Kevin tells her that aside from the first day she walked into his 4th grade class wearing overalls, the day she decided to marry him was the best day of his life. And he wants her to give him another chance. Spoiler alert: she totally comes to the diner the next morning.

PRESENT DAY: RANDALL

Randall gets woken up by a nightmare about William dying, but he’s really woken up by his daughter needing his help. Him and Beth find out that their their oldest daughter Tess is way up past her bedtime, practicing with William for a chess tournament. Randall’s not doing well, y’all. He’s starting to lose it. He’s snapping at his wife and kids, he’s upset about William, and he can’t even handle talking to the hospice nurse that comes to the house. He deals with his issues by going to work, but even that’s taking a toll on him, because between his family and emotions, he can’t give his projects the attention they need. He ends up bailing on a client dinner with his co-worker Sanjay once Beth finds out it conflicts with his Tess’s chess tournament, and as a result, his boss takes away the case. And we finally see the stress of everything catching up to Randall as his hand starts shaking with tremors. Yeah, Randall’s definitely NOT okay, and something tells me he’s not gonna say anything.

And now… the weekly “Jack will make you cry” part of the recap….

Pearson Points:

  • Jack routinely uses the words “soulmate” and “forever” about Rebecca — 10 points: All I’m saying is guys don’t do this liberally. You’ve got a good one if they do.
  • Jack leaves work early to be at BOTH OF HIS SON’S FOOTBALL PRACTICES, he leaves a glass of water on Rebecca’s bedside table to make sure she drinks, and he works 10-12 hours — 10 points: Rebecca calls him “a freaking superhero” AND WE AGREE.
  • Jack’s entire surprise for Rebecca — 10 points: Do we even need to justify this? Did you SEE the episode?

Beyonce’s Mom, Tina Knowles, Is Ready To Spill A Little “Tea” In Her New Memoir 'Matriarch'

People love to say "curiosity killed the cat" without mentioning that "satisfaction brought it back" — hence my love for celebrity books and memoirs. Apart from their superstar status, celebs are still humans who have other interests and lives outside of what's made them famous. Celebs are oftentimes placed on a pedestal, so reading their memoirs, novels, and otherwise helps humanize them. If you want a better picture of your fave celebs, here are the 36 best celebrity memoirs and books you can add to your bookshelves today.

Celebrity Memoirs

Matriarch: A Memoir by Tina Knowles (April 22, 2025)

Beyonce's mom, Ms. Tina Knowles, is throwing her hat in the book ring with her upcoming memoir Matriarch and I don't know what to do with myself! She's made it more than clear that she's not only her daughters' biggest supporters, but Ms. Knowles has also proven she's just as business savvy as they are. This makes the term, "They get it from their mama" super appropriate. But, who is Ms. Celestine Knowles beyond that?

Greenlightsby Matthew McConaughey

Confession — I immediately fell in love with Matthew McConaughey's southern drawl when I watched The Wedding Planner in 2001.

“Protective” Peter Gallagher Is “So Grateful” Mischa Barton Survived “Toxic Fame”

No matter what kind of day you're having, Marissa Cooper's having a worse one. Mischa Barton's The O.C. character went through the ringer during the first three seasons of the teen drama (remember how she overdosed in Tijuana...and also saw her parents post-hookup after their divorce?).

And during her time on The O.C., Mischa Barton struggled with drug and alcohol abuse. She was arrested for a DUI in 2007 and eventually received involuntary psychiatric hospitalization in 2009 after allegedly threatening to end her own life. And in a new interview, Peter Gallagher (who played Sandy Cohen on the show) says he's "just so grateful" for "the fact that she’s still alive."

  • Mischa Barton starred alongside Peter Gallagher in The O.C. from 2003-2006.
  • The actress has revealed the "trauma" of being a star at that point in her life.
  • Peter recently opened up about how he's thankful "she’s still alive."

The O.C. follows Ryan Atwood, who moves in with the Cohens after getting kicked out of his mom's house, and starts a relationship with Marissa shortly after. While Peter Gallagher played Adam Brody's TV dad instead of Mischa's, Sandy was a definitely father figure for Marissa, and it seems like Peter felt that same responsibility off camera.

"I’ve always felt very protective of her," Peter told The Independent. "First fame is toxic. First fame can kill you. She was 16 years old when she started working with us, so just the fact that she’s still alive, I’m just so grateful."

“You can go to therapy every day for the rest of your life,” Mischa said in a 2023 interview with The Sunday Times. “There’s just a certain amount of trauma [from] all that I went through, particularly in my early twenties, that just doesn’t go away overnight.”

Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage revealed that season 1 overdose not only served as a cliffhanger, but gave “network executives an escape hatch on a performer they had been wary about” (via People). But Mischa Barton got her big break, becoming "how people knew the show," and (thankfully) Marissa recovered — only to die after a car crash in season 3.

As hard as that season 3 ending is to watch, Mischa did have the opportunity to watch it with Rachel Bilson and Melinda Clarke for the first time on their rewatch podcast. "It needed to be a thing, after everything she's been through, but if it's here I'll watch it with you," Mischa says.

"I couldn't do it, Mischa, I couldn't do it," Rachel adds. "But I'm going to do it if you're going to do it."

Mischa says even though being written off the show "was a little bit of a bummer," it wasn't necessarily a surprise. "The character was just doing too much," she told Vanity Fairin 2023. "And I think they ran out of places for her to go. It was not the best thing in the world, [but] there wasn’t much you could do at that point. It was whether she could sail off into the sunset, or die. At that point, I guess it’s better to have the more dramatic ending.”

Rosalia Who? Jeremy Allen White & 'The Bear' Co-Star Molly Gordon Spotted Out Again

Listen up, chefs: we thought Jeremy Allen White was officially off the market after months of dating the iconic Spanish pop star, Rosalía, but it looks like they're no longer an item! Jeremy was just spotted kissing one of this co-stars from The Bear, bringing their on-screen romance to real life.

Pascal Le Segretain / Getty Images

Jeremy's on-screen romance turned IRL.

Photos of Jeremy and co-star Molly Gordon (who plays his love interest, Claire, in The Bear) obtained by People show things heating up between the two. The duo had their arms wrapped around each other as they embraced for a kiss. This is the first time we've seen them both linked romantically, and we're honestly shocked and left wondering what happened with Rosalía, who he was going steady with in fall 2023.

October 25, 2024: Jeremy Allen White & Molly Gordon Spark More Rumors

A month after Jeremy Allen White and Molly Gordon were seen locking lips in Los Angeles, Peoplesnagged more photos of the two as they enjoyed a nice walk in NYC. They look cozy in their casual fall outfits — complete with matching burgundy hats — and were all smiles. They've yet to confirm anything though, but they have all the makings of a budding romance that could be serious!

Scroll on for a deeper look into all of Jeremy's recent romantic escapades!

Jeremy Allen White's Steamy Dating History

First, there were the Jeremy Allen White and Selena Gomez dating rumors.

An anonymous submission to DeuxMoi at the beginning of July 2023 set off speculation that the two A-listers were “in touch.” The tip noted that Selena and Jeremy had allegedly met at a Vanity Fair cover shoot and hit it off ever since.

The gossip was neither proved wrong *or* right, though in hindsight, it didn’t hold up too strongly. Not long after rumors began circulating, the Haim sisters posted on Instagram about "single summer," picturing Selena alongside a Taylor Swift-backed girl gang.

Then, a big PDA fest with Ashley Moore.

Things were steaming up on the streets of Los Angeles when Jeremy Allen White was spotted engaging in some serious PDA with model and actress, Ashley Moore in August 2023. How they met is a total mystery, but seeing them together via paparazzi pictures was jaw-dropping – especially considering Mr. White was seen with his estranged wife and kids the week prior. Yikes!

Next, Jeremy publicly thirsting over Alexa Demie.

He’s at it again! In August 2023, Jeremy Allen White scrolled past a video highlighting Alexa Demie’s new campaign with Calvin Klein and did what any fan would do – he left a comment (though minimal): “Wow.”

To publicly show his affection (or rather, attraction) via Instagram is a whole thing in itself. King.

In fall 2023, Jeremy Allen White and Rosalía were going steady.

“Rosalía and Jeremy Allen White have recently started dating,” a source told Us Weekly in November 2023. “They started out as just friends, but things have turned romantic recently.”

Alexa, play "That Should Be Me" by Justin Bieber!

The duo had been sighted side-by-side a few times. TMZ shared photos of them together at a late-October 2023 farmer's market and even sharing a smoke break in a parking lot. Romantic!

That budding romance came after what we call White’s hot boy summer – he was out and about on the streets of Los Angeles amidst his separation from actress Addison Timlin. Throughout their divorce, White was rumored to be involved with Selena Gomez, thirsting over Alexa Demi on Instagram, and was publicly spotted smooching Ashley Moore.

Despite all of this, Jeremy was spotted being friendly with his divorced ex.

In what TMZ was calling "the friendliest divorce ever," Jeremy Allen White and his now-ex Addison Timlin had been seen doing family activities together amid his romantic antics. The pair shares two young daughters, which is likely why they're still seeing each other from time to time. Where Jeremy's head is, we can't say for sure, but we do know he's out there acting young, wild, and free.

See Dylan Sprouse & Barbara Palvin's Dreamy Halloween Costume: "My Forever"

Former Disney Channel star Dylan Sprouse and model Barbara Palvin are certainly living the sweet life after tying the knot in Palvin's native Hungary. The couple, who have been together for nearly five years, have always been pretty low-key — except for the occasional and undeniably adorable Instagram post (and a stunning wedding!). We are simply ~obsessed~ with this celebrity couple, especially after they pulled out all the stops for their couple's Halloween costume. Keep scrolling to see some of their best moments :').

See Dylan Sprouse & Barbara Palvin's Halloween Couple's Costume!

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Barbara Palvin (@realbarbarapalvin)

For Halloween Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin stunned as the Phantom and Christine from Phantom of the Opera. Dylan wore a mask and a black cape, while Barbara wore a beautiful white dress. While the costume is obviously a nod to the musical, it also totally reminds us of their day as bride and groom.

"In Sleep He Sang to Me," Barbara said in a post, quoting the musical's titular number. "@dylansprouse my forever Phantom."

Who did Dylan Sprouse marry?

www.instagram.com

On the couple's wedding day (July 15, 2023), Barbara wore a Vivienne Westwood wedding gown to celebrate her Hungarian nuptials, bringing together their nearest and dearest for an intimate(-ish) celebration. Barbara and Dylan tied the knot on her parent's property, which conveniently doubles as an event venue, with plans to host an larger wedding in California in the fall.

"This past weekend was supposed to be an intimate event, but we ended up having 115 guests in the end because there are a lot of people we care about, and we wanted them all to be there," Barbara told Vogue.

When did Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin get engaged?

Barbara Palvin on Instagram: "♥️"

After months of speculation surrounding the couple's engagement, Dylan and Barbara confirmed their engagement in conversation with Sprouse's twin brother, actor Cole Sprouse, for V Magazine in June, sharing that they got engaged last September.

"We didn't necessarily feel the need to be fully transparent with the public about that aspect of our engagement," Dylan said. "What we wanted to do with Stephen [Gan, V editor-in-chief] and the V team is make something that was kind of tongue-in-cheek about the nature of private versus public. We're playing with the idea of perception."

Barbara noted that the lovebirds wanted to announce the news "on our time," adding, "When some people leaked the information that we got engaged, our PR team was like, 'Hey, so you guys should do maybe a post about it or talk to this magazine or talk to that magazine…' That really annoyed me because I knew we were building this story up. So, I'm very happy that we ended up doing it our way."

When did Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse start dating?

According to People, the couple met back in 2017 after a party when the Suite Life On Deck star slid into the model’s DMs (and as they say, the rest is history). The duo made their relationship Instagram official back in 2018 with Barbara’s sweet birthday tribute for Dylan’s 26th birthday.

Let’s be real here for a second though, we all knew they were endgame the minute Dylan went above and beyond to support Barbara at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show that same year (remember this viral video?). Three days after the fashion show, the Hungarian model told Vogue Australia that she hadn’t had a boyfriend in six years, but had now found “the perfect guy” in Dylan (we aren’t crying, you are).

How old are Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse?

Vittorio Zunino Celotto/Getty Images

Barbara Palvin was born on October 8, 1993, making her 31 years old. Dylan Sprouse was born on August 4, 1992, meaning he's 32 years old. So there's only a one-year age gap between them!

Elle & Dakota Fanning Will Collab On Apple's 'Margo's Got Money Troubles'

2017's The Beguiled gave us one of the best groups of people of all time: Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman, Sofia Coppola, and Kirsten Dunst just to name a few. And we're finally getting an Elle and Nicole reunion thanks to Apple TV+! "THRILLED to bring @rufithorpe genius hysterical heart-wrenching heartwarming book to your TV screens alongside a dream group of people!" Elle says on Instagram. Rather than having to test the success of its pilot, the series has already been ordered — even though the book it's based on isn't even out yet! Here's everything you need to know about the series.

  • Dakota and Elle Fanning will produce the upcoming Apple TV+ show Margo's Got Money Troubles.
  • The series follows Margo, who signs up for OnlyFans after learning she's pregnant.
  • The cast includes Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Nick Offerman.

Margo's Got Money Troubles Cast

We couldn't contain our excitement when we learned Margo's Got Money Troubles will star Nicole Kidman and Elle Fanning, but knowing Michelle Pfeiffer is also joining the cast is too much to bear! This is the first time the actress will collaborate with her husband, TV creator David E. Kelley, so we can't wait to see the magic they'll create (via Deadline).

Nick Offerman from The Last of Us and Parks and Rec will also star.

Margo's Got Money Troubles Release Date

We don't have an official release date for Elle Fanning and Nicole Kidman's TV show yet. I'm thinking if the TV show is in the early stages of planning, we could see it in 2025! Check out all of this year's best New TV Shows to hold you over until then.

Margo's Got Money Troubles Plot

Margo Millet is the daughter of a Hooter's waitress named Shyanne (Michelle Pfeiffer) and an ex-wrestler (via Deadline). She's always had to make it on her own, even though she's not sure how. When she enrolls in her local junior college, she's totally unprepared to get swept up into a torrid love affair with her English professor — or to get pregnant.

Now at 20 years old, Margo needs an income and fast. She decides to experiment with OnlyFans and ends up taking some of her estranged father's advice from the world of wrestling to create a character users will fall in love with. You can order the book now!
