Mandy Moore’s performance in this scene is unreal. She needs an Emmy.

*Love how she takes a bite of the candy bar so intently. Almost in such utter shock that the only thing one can do, is take a bite of a candy bar.*

[TorqueX]

he spent his entire life giving his heart to the people he cared about. guess he didn't have much left for himself.

[thatswhatsup]

That quick flashback of his face when they first met always kills me.

[Kingiwingi]

Why are people not throwing awards at Mandy Moore for this You see every single emotion go across her mind with just a flicker of her eyes..

[lpycb]

The toughest part was seeing his wallet, badge and keys... that’s what he was reduced to. A great man, so loved, so good... just reduced to three little things. We all are.

[jasonwolfe]

Never watched an episode of this show, but wanted to see what all the fuss was about. So much emotion in this scene, I can start to understand why this show is so popular.

[jennsara]

This is one of the most realistic things I’ve ever seen because it’s reality, it’s not how they make it in movies like Mandy Moore said where there was some romantic last gesture or speech it was a silly light hearted last conversation, and it just makes it harder to say goodbye to Jack Pearson. Her acting is perfection it’s real, and pure and this is why Mandy Moore and the rest of this cast will go down in history as being amazing authentic actors. Goodbye Jack Pearson 😥💔

[kerrid]

You can literally see her eyes change from shock to pain the moment she realizes, this is so powerful

[yash-ypym]

this show can make you cry in a second

[jormungandrworldserpent]

It takes her half the video to realize he’s dead.... realistic honestly

[adalynemery]

The fact that Mandy didn’t actually know Jack would be there dead when she walked back into the room is SENDING ME. She showed REAL emotion.

[Acraigjr]

That was such a heart-wrenching moment. When she left the room, I feel like he knew he was about to die. Ugh this is so sad!

[zydecomoon]

I dont even watch this show and it still made me cry

[GreenLight]

What’s sadder than this is when she is talking to the kids on the phone and the doctors all run in to the emergency room and she does not notice

[zoeleanne]

How did Mandy not get an Emmy nomination for this such good acting

[jamesguidash]

Everybody REMEMBER that Jack Pearson was 53 YEARS OLD when he saved his kids, his photo albums, and his dog by going through a burning house with no protective equipment except for a mattress. You can keep your Iron Man, your Superman, these indestructible types. Jack Pearson walked through Hell for his family, then went back in for the pictures and his little girl's dog. THEN he chose to die ALONE so his wife wouldn't have to watch. The woman he loved for 26 years, he let her leave the room after a lame joke so she wouldn't have to witness the stuff of her nightmares. He knew he was about to have a heart attack (because a sense of impeding doom is one of the signs, isn't evolution awesome?) and he knew it would destroy her to have to watch. Jack Pearson is a hero Marvel couldn't dream up in their wildest of imaginations.

The best part bout this scene was that Mandy didn’t know milo body was still there, so her reaction to him on the table was an actual reaction like ours.Their will never be another jack Pearson milo deserves an Oscar or golden globe

[shivanipawar]

[sophiejleigh]

Oh god you can see her mouth "Somebody help him please"
