[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kevin couldn't call his family in the audience - he had to be the one to leave because he has to make it up to Randall - for not being there for him in the past. Kevin says to Sophie that he has changed and this just shows how true that is. [/quote]
He could have made it up to Randall after the play. I feel bad for the actress - he slept with her, lead her on, and then dropped her pretty callously. She stayed in the play that he funded despite being mistreated, but he did let her down again.[/quote]

No, I agree with the others.  Seems like Kevin has always been selfish and everything was about him.  Even with Kate - she did everything for Kevin and it was all about him.  I loved that he finally made a turn and the "grand gesture" of potentially ruining the most important thing to him to save his brother.  Similar to Jack taking the management job and giving up his dreams of starting his own business for his family.[/quote]

But the gesture was still selfish. I would understand the gesture if it only ruined his career like Jack did, but it ruined the screenwriter's career and her mental health too (no one in her family believes in her already, remember)?[/quote]

I think it was [b]mellow dramatic[/b].  Seriously, if you felt like your brother was having a panic attack, you'd probably have a stage hand that could run and check on him.  Or at least have someone announce that there will be an delay in the performance.  It wasn't just the playwright, but a whole theater crew, producers, etc.  Also, even in community theater productions, they have understudies.

Two episodes back, but I also think it was stretching the story line that Kate gets kicked out of fat camp b/c the rude, boorish, sexually harassing horse wrangler is the owners son.  No way a place like that would stay in business with that chubby chaser on staff--they'd be sued out of existence.

Still cannot see why Kate is chronically so pissy toward Toby in every episode.  It's easy to see why Kate's character would have become Kevin's work wife crutch b/c it's not just the weight that would drive intimate relationships away.  Kevin's character at least knew her b/f the bitchiness set in.
