A new theory is going viral that could explain why Kate isn\u2019t the only Pearson harboring some serious guilt over Jack\u2019s death. Is Kevin holding back more pain than we realize?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">This Is Us season 2 is going to explore more of Kevin\u2019s (Justin Hartley) relationship with Jack (Milo Ventimiglia), peeling back more layers to the charming Pearson than we ever thought possible. Reddit user ninjapoop7 has come up with a pretty convincing as to why Kevin may be holding so much back. \u201cI\u2019m beginning to think Kevin and Jack did not end on good terms when Jack died, hence why Kevin has such a hard time talking about it to this day,\u201d the fan writes. \u201cKevin wasn\u2019t with the family that night Jack died. He was out by his car\/home making out with Sophie. It would make a lot of sense if a fire started in the home, and Jack thinking that Kevin was in the basement (where he was supposed to be). Maybe Kevin \u201cmoved out\u201d that night because he got into an argument with Jack. My guess is that they were arguing about Kevin\u2019s potential painkiller addiction, and Jack trying to console Kevin about it. Jack obviously knows about addiction, and probably tried to intervene and help Kevin, making Kevin angry and running away from home that night. So with the fire starting, Jack probably thought that Kevin, with a cast and unable to get out of a burning house on time, went to go find him, only to find he wasn\u2019t there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">The fan believes that Kate (Chrissy Metz) covered for Kevin that night, and that\u2019s why she feels so much guilt over Jack\u2019s death. \u201cI think this is why Kevin has such a hard time dealing with his dad\u2019s death,\u201d the fan notes. \u201cBecause he feels guilty for where he left things off with his father, and how the whole thing could potentially have been prevented had the kids been respectful\/loyal to their parents.\u201d If this theory is true, it would explain why Kevin is the way he is. Kate and Randall (Sterling K. Brown) are much more open about their grief, while Kevin tries to act like he\u2019s dealt with it when he clearly hasn\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Kevin\u2019s dealing with a lot right now. When an old knee injury started acting up, he began taking medication for it. An upcoming promo teases that Kevin may become addicted to painkillers. His father also battled addiction problems, as we all know. This fan theory and what we\u2019ve witnessed so far in season 2 confirms one thing: we\u2019ve only cracked the surface of Kevin Pearson\u2019s story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><strong>Source<\/strong>:\u00a0http:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2017\/10\/24\/this-is-us-theory-kevin-jack-death\/<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/entertainment\/tv\/this-heartbreaking-this-is-us-theory-predicts-why-kevin-may.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get ready to cry even more, \u2018This Is Us\u2019 fans.
