About this deal

Also portrayed by Michael Angarano as a young adult, and Donnie Masihi as a child (guest season 3–4; recurring season 2–4). A coming-of-age novel—a heady union of Before Sunrise and Beautiful Ruins—about a father and his teenage son who are forced to spend two sleepless nights exploring the city of Marseilles, a journey of unexpected adventure and profound discovery that helps them come to truly know each other. The tiny Big Three hear mom and dad fighting and are worried they aren’t in love any more. To prove that of course they are in love, they have a family wedding in the living room. They all promise to love each other forever. When you get over the no-context “family wedding” and focus on the sentiment of everyone pledging to love each other, the sentiment is less weird. Within ten minutes, Randall’s told Beth his entire life story and doesn’t spare any details. She is rightfully terrified, but eventually his charm wins her over. Last summer, a short time before my son was due to leave home for college, my wife woke me in the middle of the night.

Rebecca refuses to let Randall head up to Boston to collect his daughter alone and forces him to take his time with the drive. They drink dive-bar wine, take lots of selfies, and Randall tells his mom he’s going to run for senator and is going to win. Rebecca is so proud! She tells him he’s her hero. Honestly, just throw me into the gross motel pool, there is nothing left for me here! She learns things about Simon, and knows it is time to get a divorce. As we read the book, we see that Stella is just determined to do what she knows she must do. One of the things she thinks about is if she waits, then the children's relationship with their father could be broken. Her sister and her friends are there supporting her and being there for her, Stella learned life isn't always what she thought it was, and she didn't have a say in Simon leaving, but she did have a say in what would happen now, and she did. Douglas Petersen may be mild-mannered, but behind his reserve lies a sense of humor that, against all odds, seduces beautiful Connie into a second date . . . and eventually into marriage. Now, almost three decades after their relationship first blossomed in London, they live more or less happily in the suburbs with their moody seventeen year-old son, Albie. Then Connie tells him she thinks she wants a divorce.

Rebecca’s only around 8 or 9 years old here, but the image of this woman staring at a painting stays with her. According to Rebecca it has a 95 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and even NPR’s Terry Gross is into it. It’s her probing questions that send Kevin on a hunt to learn more about his father’s time in Vietnam. Like most major life events, the news is exciting and wonderful but also terrifying. We’re all (cautiously) happy for Kate, but sad for ourselves because it means we have to watch Toby do a Flashdance routine in a coffee shop to a Hootie and the Blowfish song. None of that is made up, and it all seems very, very Toby.
