No need to be embarrassed. It was a very good show.The doctor was busy saving another patient when Jack went into cardiac arrest.
I'm embarrassed I know this but come on man.
That's what happened in the old episode, but like happens in that show.... they later showed the rest of the story. It showed that the doctor was rattled because he felt he could have save him if he hadn't had to save the kid instead.I was frankly kinda bored by that episode and was only half watching the hospital scenes while on my phone. I thought the doctor said something like, huh, this one ends up making it and that one died randomly from smoke, some crazy world. I’ll rewatch that scene, but my memory of the old episode was that Jack was done and got dressed to leave when he died. That he wasn’t waiting for the doctor. I’ll need to find that clip too. I don’t think they replayed it in this episode?
This Is Us. Nothing like a soap opera. Just an excellent show.These are the days of your lives?
Soap opera thoughThis is hilarious. The most sensitive anti-spoilers are doing detailed scene by scene analysis.

Jack wasn't checking out of the hospital he was staying to be monitored for smoke inhalation. The doctor leaves and says he's coming back in a bit, but he has to take care of the kid when jack has the heart attack:
Oh yeah? Guess I don't know the definition.Hate to break it to you but almost all prestige dramas are soaps, including stuff that I love like Breaking Bad. The difference lies in the execution and the artistry.
Yeah, their crossing paths had an impact on each other. But the doctor's absence didn't cause the death, imo.Also passed in the lemons/lemonade family saying to the other family which helped the kid persevere when his cancer study was defended and go make an alzheimer cure instead.
He's embarrassed by a quality family show, but vigorously defends in the same thread a franchise where 50% of the dialogue has been variations of "beep boop bloopity doop meesah meesah". That one isn't embarrassing.No need to be embarrassed. It was a very good show.
That's you trying to look at it rationally. The doctor absolutely looked rattled and felt the he could have saved Jack had he not been saving the kid.He says they need to still run some tests and he leaves him in the care of his staff, who presumably were going to be running said tests. He doesn't have a nurse bust in and prevent him from looking him over. He did everything he was going to do and then went to the next patient. And Jack died before he got back. So he didn't die "because" the doctor had to save the other patient. He would've died just the same had the doctor been in the next room while the staff was getting ready to run, or was in the process of running, the tests.
There isn't the causal link from anything I've seen. The point here was to show the "dichotomy", which is the word they repeated a few times. One guy looking perfectly fine and dropping dead unexpectedly, another one in critical condition and making it out alive. And then the latter achieves breakthroughs in the field of the former's wife's ailment.
It's more or less the same thing, but to say he died "because" the doctor was away implies that if the doctor had stayed, he'd have lived. The doctor simply wasn't in the room, and was with the kid, when it happened. And had he been with Jack, the same result from the looks of things.
I don't think I saw that. Are you referring to the scene when he comes back down and learns Jack died?That's what happened in the old episode, but like happens in that show.... they later showed the rest of the story. It showed that the doctor was rattled because he felt he could have save him if he hadn't had to save the kid instead.
But the bright side is that the kid went on to become very important to the world.
Rewatch that scene. You're reading waaaaay too much into it. The doctor was surprised to hear the news, there was nothing whatsoever about being rattled and feeling he could've saved him.That's you trying to look at it rationally. The doctor absolutely looked rattled and felt the he could have saved Jack had he not been saving the kid.
It's a masculinity thing. Guys are supposed to be into sci-fi and action. Something that gives you feels though?? People might think I'm gay. I mean look at Habsy, in 3 separate posts he had to assert his masculinity by calling it a soap so that nobody would thing he was gay.He's embarrassed by a quality family show, but vigorously defends in the same thread a franchise where 50% of the dialogue has been variations of "beep boop bloopity doop meesah meesah". That one isn't embarrassing.
I mean, we knew Jack died in the very first episode of the series...This is hilarious. The most sensitive anti-spoilers are doing detailed scene by scene analysis.
Yup, and yet everyone knows he is, so why even bother?It's a masculinity thing. Guys are supposed to be into sci-fi and action. Something that gives you feels though?? People might think I'm gay.

Are you talking about the original scene or the one from the final episode?Rewatch that scene. You're reading waaaaay too much into it. The doctor was surprised to hear the news, there was nothing whatsoever about being rattled and feeling he could've saved him.
