'This Is Us' fans are sent reeling on Twitter over Jack and Rebecca's first date
On Tuesday’s third season premiere of NBC’s This Is Us, fans got to see the first moments that Jack, played by Milo Ventimiglia, laid eyes on Mandy Moore’s Rebecca. Reactions on Twitter flooded in quickly.

As the episode proceeded, Jack noticing Rebecca singing onstage led to an immediate first date at a nearby carnival. Unfortunately, Jack only had $9 in his pocket to get him through the night.
“Nine bucks to show my dream girl the night of her life,” Jack said, one of many earnest one-liners you would expect from Jack on a first date.
That money issue created some rather uncomfortable moments on the date, including when he wouldn’t buy her an umbrella after it started raining. But fans seemed to enjoy the not-so-fairy-tale exchanges.
Jack and Rebecca’s first date is so horribly awkward, which makes them even more perfect. #ThisIsUs

Later, Jack rebounded nicely with a vulnerable moment in the car while dropping her off, which led to one of the most Tweeted about lines of the night. After breaking down just how bad the date was, Rebecca finished by surprisingly adding, “Oh, but the way that you look at me, wow.”

And even though the night ended with a kiss, the scene at Rebecca’s house the next morning left fans reeling. When Jack pulled up with flowers in the seat next to him, he looked up and saw a different man had beat him to the door with flowers, and a kiss, of his own.
