When they made it known that there was going to be a Miguel episode, I knew it was going to end how it ended. I'm kind of glad, because when we saw deathbed Rebecca and didn't see him there was a part of me that thought that she might have just been talking about Jack so much at the end that it would be too much for Miguel and he distanced himself, which obviously would have made sense and I wouldn't have questioned that decision
( ... )
It's really frustrating that he hasn't grown at all after all this time when it comes to dismissing or overriding Rebecca's wishes (which she's always expressed clearly) because he thinks he knows better.
These last few episodes are gonna wreck me. I think I’ve cried every episode this season, and now seeing everyone age is just making me so emotional. Sad that I feel like we didn’t get to have a good final episode with Randall’s girls as teens because of all the time jumping.
I loved this episode and the ways we saw it all... I think we DID see Miguel's daughter and the son toward the end, on the porch (or was that his wife, not sure). I sobbed in the end, though not surprising. I loved seeing him realize he DID have kids who loved him and I liked the discussions with Rebecca when they came together, as it addressed so many concerns people had. I also loved her asking him to retire and be with her, so adorable and beautiful.
It also broke my heart to think about, while the Pearsons got this selfless loving man, his own kids got an absentee father experience; it's so unfair how often that happens in life.

Honestly I didn’t notice Miguel wasn’t around when Rebecca was dying until recently when someone else mentioned it.
