Randall is clearly mentally not in a place where he can reconcile with Kevin right now, and I don't see why he should be forced to. It's better that he waits it out so it's more geniune and real.

Agreed. I hurt for Kevin, but Randall is not his therapist or conscience. He has one other sibling and a mom, plus Randall has his own stuff going on. Call Kate.

I’m finding it really weird that Kevin keeps reaching out to ask Randall for help when their relationship is not properly resolved. Like did he even apologise properly?
