First Look: “This Is Us” Continues With “Best Washing Machine” Episode On November 15

Off for election coverage this coming Tuesday, NBC’s “This Is Us” will return with an original on November 15.

Entitled “The Best Washing Machine In The Whole World,” the episode will feature several notable story threads. Focuses include the tense relationship between Randall and Kevin, the distance between Jack and Rebecca, the revelation of a secret William has been keeping, and an issue related to Toby and Kate’s diet.

“The dynamic of Randall and Kevin’s rocky relationship is explained,” says NBC’s official synopsis. “Beth and William spend time together, which unexpectedly brings to light a secret William has been keeping. As Rebecca gets back to work for the first time in years, both she and Jack acknowledge that there is distance between them. Toby is caught straying from his diet regimen, throwing Kate into crisis.”

In advance of the episode, NBC shared production photos.
