Sometimes (This Is Us)

Written by the show's supervising producer Bekah Brunstetter, and directed by Ken Olin, the episode focuses on three major plot points that take place during the third season.

In the present, Kevin and Zoe have embarked on an excursion to Vietnam, believing they can find answers about the mysterious local woman in a photograph with Jack, and the necklace that he kept from that era.

In Vietnam, Jack entrusts a local man named Bao to take him back to his base, whom he surmises is member of Viet Cong who produces land mines–Bao says, "sometimes."

In California, Jack is shown to have gone to Reseda to meet the Wattersons, who are the parents of a soldier who died under his watch, having stepped unwittingly on a land mine.

"[6] Milo Ventimiglia has received a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series nomination for his performance in this episode.
