'My son is going to have a life without limits.' 👏 NBCThisIsUs

In the beginning of"Strangers," we go as far into the future as we have been so far to see adult Jack at home with his adorable dog, Sam, who accidentally causes a plate of breakfast to fall and shatter. We realize in this moment that Jack's blind, a fact that is confirmed when he strolls into a local diner with sunglasses and a mobility cane, where he meets his future wife, Lucy, who's a waitress and aspiring chef.

He mentions to Lucy that he"can see some light — just a little — and really, really blurry shapes, but nothing clearly," a line that is then referenced later in the episode when Toby and Kate are sitting with baby Jack in a doctor's office. The couple is told that following procedures within the last three months,"Jack is still not following cues or responding to tests. . . it's time to move forward.

Despite Jack's differences, he has a mom who appears to be willing to fight for him to have a normal life in which he can experience everything he would have had he not been blind. And what parent — whether of a child with special needs or not — can't relate to that motivational energy?
