Wasn't there some hint of Miguel having feelings for Rebecca back when Jack was getting ready to propose to Rebecca? I seem to remember a scene where Jack is practicing he proposal speech with Miguel, and doesn't Miguel get the ring stuck on his finger?

I thought the same thing! He seems perfectly sweet and decent. And kudos to Miguel for trying to get Rebecca back out there. I wonder if he has feelings for her at this point but is just trying to do the "right" thing since he was best friends with Jack.
The Miguel/ Rebecca thing didn’t happen for a few more years after this. I seem to remember her and Miguel reconnecting over a nascent Facebook after Tess was born, am I remembering that correctly? I wonder if something happens between them to make them fall out of touch.
I definitely think Miguel has feelings for her. I think Miguel has had feelings for Rebecca for a long time - even when Jack was alive. But he's a good guy.
Now that you mention the Facebook thing, I think you're right. Not sure how I feel about dealing with a whole other Rebecca relationship this last season. Does it matter?
I don’t think there will be a Rebecca relationship with the PTA/speed date guy. I think they just set that up to have the Rebecca/Kate fight after. I am REALLY looking forward to seeing the post-Tess/FB Miguel and Rebecca reconnection and will be super mad if they don’t include it.
Me too on the reconnection post Tess. I don't think Miguel had feelings for Rebecca at all while Jack was still alive. His relationship was with Jack mostly, and it was the deep love for his friend that spurred him to be the main support system for her when Jack died. I think Miguel's estrangement from his own kids then also came into play with his involvement with Rebecca and her kids after that time. For sure by the speed-dating, he had feelings for her.

Beth was amazing. I was so happy to start to see how Rebecca/Miguel happens.
The Rebecca/Kate connection via piano, love it. So special that little Jack continues her legacy through his music.
Yes, yes, yes. This is why I fell in love with the show.
And I love it when Randall is funny.

He definitely already has feelings for her - he looks happy and a little sad when she connects with PTA Dude.
Am I the only one who doesn’t really care who Kevin ends up with? It’s one of the least interesting storylines for me.

Ugh, she is WAY out of his league and he looks so much older than her. So typical, they pair a nice old and not so good looking guy with a gorgeous woman and nobody thinks anything of it. If the genders were reversed though...

Yes. Sorry!

Nice! I like the idea of Deja coming to the realization herself, and ending it (on good terms, of course) with Malik. That would make a lot more sense - for her to finally understand why their plan isn't good for HER.

It seems to me that he is living at the cabin/house when Rebecca dies, even though he built it for her -- Toby says, "Kevin's house is huge," for example. So if he is not with Madison, how is that working exactly? Does she live nearby? Seems like if he's not with Madison they need to be living in the same city for the twins. Madison could be dead. Or it's possible that's just a second home, but it really seems like his primary residence.
He could be with Madison, and they relocated to Pittsburgh or wherever that house is. Kevin is the one with potential location needs based on his career. As far as we know, Madison could live anywhere.
DP. But doesn't Kevin start "Big Three Homes"? That was on the paper in the flash-forward wedding scene. So maybe he ditches acting and moves to PA permanently.

Actually this episode revealed that he does have depth of feeling for Madison, which is nice. I think she's a contender, though I love her with Elijah and do ultimately prefer Sophie for Kevin. I was dying with the "which blonde" remark, omg.

I think what Cassidy told him, about potentially wrecking Madison’s new relationship with Elijah, really hit home for Kevin. He does care about Madison and wants her to be happy. I think that’s why he called Elijah, to give him a tip about how to make Madison happy. I do believe it will be Sophie for Kevin in the end.
Kevin shouldn’t have outed Madison’s eating disorder though. Unless I missed something in the episode.
I doubt he outed her. I'm sure she has told Elijah about it by now. Elijah didn't seem surprised at all.

I'm the PP that suggested it would be her mother. I like this too. And I like it on the Kevin growth arc.
