IN THE DEEP MOVIE MANDY MOORE TRIAL

Louis is a transformative one, hopefully for RebeccaвЂ¦ Somehow she ends up back at the cabin celebrating Kevin and Kate's and Randall and Jack's birthday, and has that episode where she's a bit out of sorts. Louis if she still does participate in the study, with Miguel (Jon Huertas) dutifully at her side? The real-world pandemic - which will be reflected on the show - will 'dictate a lot' in terms of how this story will be told, she says. What might life look like for Rebecca in St. So it'll be interesting to see how it unfolds in season 5.' Things have always been pretty great with Randall, but now that she lives in California and she has her grandchild there and potentially more grandchildren in the future, I think she really didn't take this decision lightly. And the last two seasons, we've really seen so much repair with her children, and this season included, that I think she really wants to enjoy the fruits of her labor of finally getting on the same page with Kate and with Kevin.

But I could also understand, this is a woman who is fully understanding of the resources that are out there and has made this decision with a lot of information at her fingertips that instead of pressing forward and being a part of some sort of clinical trial or really doing anything that feels like too much, she really wants to spend this time with her family. 'I don't know if I necessarily agree with the means by which he got Rebecca to agree to this. 'I can absolutely understand a son who lost his biological father, his adopted father, and now has the opportunity to do whatever it takes to care for his mom,' says Moore. Swept in the fear of possibly losing another parent, the dutiful son seemed to move from fiercely advocating for the health of his mother to crossing a line and not respecting her wishes.

Randall did not take no for an answer, and the fact that he strong-armed her into a yes rankled Kevin as well as fans.

I wanted to make sure that all the details were correct.' This particular story is a mirror for them. And we're lucky to have this wide swath of people that watch our show, and I'm sure many people recognize this in their own families. I listened to podcasts, I watched documentaries, I read books, and I spoke to a couple of neurologists as well, because the details really matter.

'I somehow haven't had a personal connection to Alzheimer's or dementia, so I was very nervous about making sure that I handled this correctly and responsibly, and I wanted to do all the research possible,' says Moore. Moore embarked on her own journey of discovery to tackle this daunting part of Rebecca's story, immersing herself in all sorts of research. In preparation for this ambitious arc that will follow her through the end of the show, the This Is Us team sought out expertise and advice from medical professionals, and a neurologist was on set for the episode in which Rebecca was administered diagnostic tests. That ferocious finale capped a season in which Rebecca started to come to terms with her mild cognitive impairment and weighed treatment options.
