SPOILER ALERT: The following story reveals major plot points from tonight’s episode of NBC’s This Is Us.
For six seasons, fans of NBC’s This Is Us have felt a wide range of emotions toward the character of Miguel—mostly disdain—which they had to reconcile on tonight’s episode of the series aptly titled “Miguel.” The episode tips its hat to a humble and good man, an Afro Latino caught between two worlds never feeling like he fit anywhere perfectly until he fell in love with a woman named Rebecca (Mandy Moore).
The final product is a collaboration between Huertas, staff writer Jonny Gomez, director Zetna Fuentes, multiple Latino actors, and many more Latinos behind the scenes.
“Working on this episode was amazing,” Huertas tells Deadline. “The script was absolutely astounding and we got the perfect director to blow this one out of the park. When I first watched it, I audibly blubbered. These feelings have been building up inside me, I’ve been holding them in. I remember at one point, Sterling K. Brown was on one side of the room and I was trying to hold in my emotions but suddenly, this sound came out that I couldn’t control. As soon as that happened, Sterling, I guess, felt like he had permission too and he made a very similar sound. We sounded like two whales communicating with one another. When Mandy Moore joined in, I think that was when [creator] Dan [Fogelman] had to stop for a break. It’s nice that we were able to take Miguel out the way that we did.”
The episode jumps across different timelines, from showing Miguel as a young boy in Puerto Rico with his parents before moving to Pittsburgh for better job opportunities, to his love story with his best friend’s girl, to his eventual and heartbreaking death in the final

Jennifer Maas TV Business WriterSPOLER ALERT: Do not read if you have not watched “Miguel,” the May 3 episode of “This Is Us.”“Miguel over the years,” was the simple description given for Tuesday’s “This Is Us,” the fourth-to-last episode of Dan Fogelman’s NBC family drama.
