Agreed, but she did seem happy.

No kidding! I kept watching to see if they were dubbing his lines or editing like crazy, because that was pretty incredible.
I wonder if the little actor's blindness had an impact on that. I could imagine that a vision impairment might heighten the kid's perception and emotional intelligence in a way that translates into better acting skill, even at that tiny age.
Great point. Yes, the little guy was fantastic and hope we see more of him!
I agree! What a great actor and an adorable kid. It was heartbreaking when he said he went to the park because “that’s where mommy and daddy are happy.”
I also agree with the PP who asked why Kate wasn’t there with Rebecca at the park. If my kid—whether with vision impairment or not—had wandered off and someone had a hunch about where she was, you can bet I would be running like the wind to get to her. Meanwhile, Rebecca gets to the park, finds Jack, hugs him, talks to him, etc. and Kate is nowhere to be found.
Didn't Rebecca kind of take off as soon as she realized the rain boots were gone? And everyone else was running around freaking out?
I'm really not going to criticize Kate for not being everywhere all at once. I've had my kid disappear almost in front of my eyes at a huge international airport. I found her very soon after, but there's a panic of what do I do next and you have every possibility running through your head all at once.

So weird of Elijah going through her rings with a ring sizer and getting caught by Kevin.
Agree.
And I'll come right out and say it: I don't like Elijah. Dude gives me bad vibes and I don't trust him. I think it's INSANE that he is planning to propose. The twins are still really little. Are they even a year old? I feel like he's rushing things with Madison to edge Kevin out. I don't like it for Madison. It's not in her best interest.
Didn’t he basically say that he was sticking around because he realizes he punched above his weight with a woman like Madison, since he’s a shlub and she’s hot? Yeah, I agree — as they say, he’s not there for the right reasons.

The actor is not actually blind.
He isn't blind but he has a vision impairment and albinism.
Right. You can see that he has vision impairment, as at least one of his eyes turn in.

WOW! Picky! And someone would have asked when did Kate have another pregnancy. It was a clarification. And true.
Someone is ultra sensitive. Get over it.

People need to stop attacking others over silly things.

Agree with this.

He could have found upscale temporary lodging in a number of places, but he also basically said he's been helping Kate since Tobey isn't there. It would have been nice if the writers had shown us a glimpse of that rather than just the annoyance piece.
Yes, when you stop to think about it, his taking out the trash, helping with one or more kids so Kate could run an errand, all of that small day-to-day help would have been wonderful for her. There's some inconsistency in the writing if Kate is relieved to see him go. Not saying she is, but you'd think she'd worry about doing it all alone.
I can see how she'd rather deal with the adulting on her own than have another person under her roof, though (people who look forward to their spouse's occasional business travel, raise your hands)

I live in the area and there is no way! We stop for loose dogs.
What area? Do they ever mention the part of LA they're in?
