This is Us Season 4
Fans will remember Rebecca in the opening scene of the premiere episode, when she acknowledged that strangers are important. This was after she returned from a road trip with Jack after having only met him a week before.
Rebecca said it was so strange that a complete stranger can suddenly be a large part of your story. In fact, that episode introduced viewers to three strangers. These were Jack Damon, Malik, a teenage dad at Deja’s new school, and Cassidy, a former marine who had recently separated and met Kevin at the VA hall after it was vandalized by Nicky.

Most of season 4 has Kevin trying his best to maintain his sobriety. Thanks to Cassidy, it looks like he has partly realized that he must stop dragging his way through his life and begin to believe in his future. This appears to be happening by his 40th birthday during episode 9 of this season.
Should Cassidy return, maybe she and Kevin can both believe in a future together. Alternatively, Kevin could decide he wants to do something different with his life.
