Jack's hammer

I think the future Toby issue is depression. She said getting "different meds", and he was curled up under the blanket like his mother said he was when he was depressed after his first marriage was over. I think they want us to think its Deja in the future Randell and tess, but I'm afraid its Beth!

so how old was Jack when he died? Wasn't he 36 when the kids were born? and this was 17 years later, which would make him 53? He didn't look 53, then 20 years later Rebecca would be 73? She doesnt look 73. Do I have Jacks age wrong on the pilot episode?

I think Kate has talked to Toby about Jack's death, we just weren't shown. Wasn't there a scene last season where Toby said he couldn't marry her unless he knew about the major events of her life? IIRC, she agreed, we just didn't see her telling him. I would think and hope that the writers would make that conversation shown...

I don't think the dog is the reason. Toby said to Kate "I know you have ((an issue)-forget what word he used) about dogs"...Kate has yet to talk to Toby about her Father's life and death; so I don't think the dog had anything to do with it. Kate has another issue with dogs; happening way after the death of Jack. Since it has nothing to do with Jack's death, Kate was able to tell Toby.
