But after admitting her feelings, she finds out he may have been keeping something from her. Meanwhile, Schmidt becomes obsessed with buying a fish, which Winston sees as a metaphor for Schmidt's unresolved feelings toward Cece and Nick plans a bar promotion to impress the bar owner (guest star Odette Annable).
With Cece engaged, Schmidt is depressed. Schmidt decides an aquarium filled with a rare, unattainable, and endangered species of fish is what will cheer him up. Nick decides to be a take-charge man, and this entices Jess to want Nick.

our thoughts:
Okay, so towards the end of the episode, when Brenda is sitting at her kitchen counter, it seems to be like she’s going to make a pb&j- she has the bread, a jar of peanut butter and jelly… but she’s stirring the pb & jelly in the bowl, then by the next time they flash to her, she’s spreading it on the bread.
Is this some genius way to make peanut butter and jelly that I never learned?? Did they tell her to do it that way or is that a Shannen Dougherty thing?
Inquiring minds need to know!!
Virgin River. S1:E1. ‘Carry On’
Mel is starting a new job in a small town called Virgin River. She left Los Angeles big city life to forget and heal and she founds herself in the midst of smalltown life where not all locals welcome her - especially her new boss, the old school doctor.
Melanie Monroe moves to the small town of Virgin River where she meets a hunky bar owner. Mel is haunted by visions of her past. She takes a job at a family practice as a nurse. Doc Mullins is a grump but is obviously hiding something which is making that way.
This Is Us. Season 5, Episode 8. ‘In the Room’
The Pearsons navigate huge family milestones together but from a distance.
The Pearsons are all awaiting the arrival of the new Big Three, in the same vein as the original of two biologically related in Madison and Kevin's twins, and one adoption in Kate and Toby's as Ellie is being induced. However, the situation is not perfect as any of them would have wanted beyond pandemic-related issues. Kevin is MIA, no one knowing if he caught his flight from Seattle, leaving Randall and Beth, driving home from Louisiana, on a video call with Madison as long as she needs support.
While Kate is in the room with Ellie, Toby has to wait outside assuming the position of a tailgater outside the stadium. Toby's peace is interrupted by Arlo, another hospital visitor whose situation is making him a little more agitated especially in Toby having invaded his space.
Rebecca and Miguel are feeling isolated at the cabin, not knowing what to do as they wait and wait and wait for any news about Kevin and the three grandchildren. Rebecca can't help but focus on a framed "picture" on their wall of five different colored blobs, making her reminisce about about Jack and a trip the two took to the cabin alone when the Big Three were thirteen and were starting not wanting to hang out with their parents anymore.
With all these situations up in the air, it isn't a guarantee that all will turn out all right with any of Kevin or the three grandchildren.
Nasir and Esther's story is also told from their chance initial meeting in 1963 to when their son turned four, their story which has a profound effect on the way the Pearsons are dealing with this situation.

Our thoughts:
As I always say, one of my favorite things about this show is watching the growth of the characters- and Kevin’s growth (along w/ Justin’s acting) is the best… I loved when he realized, his fame or money wouldn’t matter as much as being “there”~
“My dad was the most ‘there’ person that ever lived,” he says.
I also loved when Jack tells Kevin that maybe what makes “parents loom so large in our heads is they’re a million things to us all at once” and that “even after they’re long gone, we’re stuck with them, we can’t help it, they’re inside of us.”
Did anyone catch the name of the guy in the car accident?? I didn’t, but the actor is Joshua Malina (from Scandal, The West Wing, and so many other things!), so I have to think this character will reappear at some point, right?? I always feel like they only use a recognizable actor if this is the case? Or maybe not… ?
