'This Is Us' is back with Episode 10 and it picks up right where it left off. Toby Damon and Kate Pearson finally have their big confrontation about his workout pal's texts. Initially, Toby convinces Kate that it is nothing important, but it turns out he had been lying to her.

Eager to meet his CrossFit friends, she plans a surprise party only to find out he has changed his gym. Later, Toby finally comes clean. "You were right about Cara. She tried to kiss me. And I stopped it," he confesses.

When Kate quizzes him why he avoids being home with her and their son, Toby tells her how he feels sad each time he looks at their son as he wouldn't be able to experience the joy of watching things with him.

Fans are worried that their relationship doesn't seem to be going anywhere. "Kate dealing with Cross Fit Toby slipping away from her is the most relatable thing about her. I hate how nearly all of my relationships have changed these last few years while I feel stuck in the same place," one fan wrote.

Another said, "I really have no idea where Kate and Toby’s relationship is gonna go. I can see it going either way. #ThisIsUs!"

One fan couldn't believe Toby lied to Kate. "Toby been lying to Kate and I can't take it!!!!!" Another fan, however, tried to defend him saying, "I'm seeing a lot of hate for Toby...but he didn't cheat, he expressed his feelings to his wife and she judged him for it. I'm not feeling Kate this week."
 
Many do understand Toby's stance on his son's blindness. "Kate acts like Toby isn’t allowed to be sad that his little boy won’t be able to experience life in the way he always envisioned him to," one tweet read.

Another fan wrote, "This is the first time that I’ve ever been interested in Kate and Toby’s storyline."

As the next episode rolls out on Tuesday, January 21, at 9 pm, it might answer the viewers' questions.
