This is Us delves deeper into his history, it also peels back the layers of another elusive character who's been trying to navigate her own trauma: Zoe.

A-

Sometimes is a deeply haunted episode of This Is Us. And in refining its focus to three rich story lines... -- it also happens to be one of the best of the season so far.

Honestly, not much really happens plot-wise within "Sometimes," but there are some great character moments.

Sometimes, feels like the giddiness you get right before embarking on a new adventure. This episode is fun, exciting, comforting, and just so darn enjoyable.

Despite This Is Us' habit of going for schlocky over-the-top sentimentality over actual emotional storytelling, the beginning of Zoe's backstory comes with the appropriate weight. Likely because of her portrayer Melanie Liburd's nuanced performance.

It can't be a fantastic episode of This Is Us without waterworks not just from Jack but from all of us.
