This Is Us: Randall's College Essay Has the Internet Wishing He Was Available For Tutoring

Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Nov. 20 episode of This Is Us. If there's anything we know about Randall Pearson, it's that he loves Thanksgiving. So when the festive episode of aired on Tuesday night, we should've guessed that his character would shine. While adult Randall, played by Sterling K. Brown, has fans swooning over , teenage Randall, , has us tearing up over his impressive college essay. Can someone get this kid a scholarship ASAP?! The episode "Six Thanksgivings" brings the entire family together in ways we didn't expect. In the present day, via FaceTime from Vietnam, and we are . In the past, we see how and how Jack forms a connection . All of these strewn throughout the episode are tied together when teenage Randall reads his college essay out loud to his family. Related: In the beginning of the episode, we see Randall struggling with the essay prompt. The question asks about the one person who's had the biggest impact on his life, and despite Kevin and Kate urging him to choose the firefighter who found him as a newborn, Randall can't discredit all the other incredible humans who mean so much to him. He reads: "Now you might say, 'Randall, most of these people are essentially strangers,' but everyone starts off as an essential stranger. I was left at a fire station by my birth father, and then I was found by a fireman, who took me to a hospital, where a doctor showed me to my father, who showed me to my mother. My story is unique, and I feel like it's like that for everyone. Strangers can be your most impactful people. Acquaintances can be your most impactful people. Family can be your most impactful people. And that's why I can't pick the person who's had the greatest impact on my life and why I think your question is flawed. But if you insist on me answering, if it's the only way I can gain entrance into your storied university, I choose the fireman." I'm no college admissions expert, but after that scene should guarantee an automatic acceptance. Watch the moment Randall reads his insightful and profound essay, and see how This Is Us fans reacted to the heartwarming clip ahead. Related:

The Fantastic Beasts Sequel Ends With a Big Twist, but Does It Have a Postcredits Scene?

has hit theaters, and with it comes a whole lot of questions. For instance, what the hell is up with all those ? How was that possible? And how in the hell is going to work out? All in the world can't make up for the wild, out-of-left-field plot choices the sequel to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them makes scene after scene. But there's one thing we can do: confirm whether there's an end credits scene. Since the prequel series is going to be five movies total, that means plenty of crazy storylines about Newt, Hot Young Dumbledore, Grindelwald, Tina, and the rest of the characters await us in the years to come. That's why we would've totally expected a brief scene postcredits hinting at what we might expect from our favorite magizoologist. Alas, there is NO midcredits or end-credits scene in the sequel. The lack of a stinger shouldn't come as a surprise, since had one, either (and neither does the first Fantastic Beasts film, for that matter). Instead, you'll be treated to the film's epic score playing out as you mull over the game-changing curveball about Credence Barebone, and nothing else. So, if you have plans to see the movie over Thanksgiving break, save yourself 15 minutes and feel free to hit up the bathroom as soon as the credits start to roll!
