[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toby said he talked to Jack and they are on their way, so I think maybe Kate and Jack are who they are now.

The kid refered to as Kevin’s is not named.

Have R&B always lived in Jersey?  Completely missed that all along. Thought they were also in PA.

Will we ever find out what happened to Randall’s birthmom?[/quote]

"I just talked to Jack - they're on their way" from Toby - to me pretty clearly meant Kate and Toby are divorced. 
Also people were thanking Toby for coming which to me indicated he was no longer directly attached to the family but came to support them anyhow.

I do wonder who Kevin ended up having the kid with. [/quote]

I think Kate died and “they” are Jack and someone else. His spouse or sibling, maybe.

I think Rebecca went into catatonic state when Kate died. It has been clarified that she does not have dementia or alzheimers. [/quote]

This is what the actor who plays Toby said: 
“At that point Kate and Toby are no longer married,” Sullivan tells The Post. “Who knows why that could be? Clearly [Toby] is still in communication with Kate and Jack. There are a lot of reasons why marriages don’t continue. The [show’s] writing staff hasn’t told us exactly what that situation will be but I think, either way, there are a lot of lessons to be learned.”

I assume Rebecca is just old. I think Rebecca was 30 when the triplets were born in 1980, so she was born in 1950 and is 68 in the current day scenes. The flash forwards must be at least... ?15? years in the future?  (Tess grown up, through some grad school and working; Kevin has a 10-12 year old kid and isn't even in a relationship now; Toby and Kate's Jack old enough to have a cell phone). Totally reasonable that she could be on her deathbed at 83 without having been triggered into a "catatonic state." Maybe cancer...

Jack was 6 years older so assuming Miguel was the same age, he probably passed away by that point. Nicky looks pretty good though. [/quote]

Agree with all of this.  I think Rebecca is simply old by this point.  My theory is that they're all gathering at Kevin's to say goodbye to Rebecca.  Maybe assisted suicide?  The pin the tail on the donkey game and sidewalk chalk play some part in all of this.  The PPP said it was clarified that she does not have Alzheimer's, but I disagree.  That was never brought up at all.  She could very well have Alzheimer's, dementia, or a terminal disease.  Perhaps she had previously requested euthanasia if it ever got to a certain point, and that's why they're all there - to honor her wishes.

Also, I think the car crash she was in earlier has something to do with all of this.  She had to have a CAT scan, and I have a feeling that perhaps there was some residual damage to her brain which perhaps didn't manifest itself until she was older... just a theory, but there did seem to be a point to that scene of the younger Rebecca in the hospital.[/quote]
