116	15	"Commencement"	Randall Park	Matt Kuhn	February 21, 2020 (2020-02-21)	6AXT15	2.39[118]
In the future, Louis and Jessica are shown attending a Harvard graduation. In the present, Eddie gets a letter from Harvard stating he will be visited by an alum, which turns out to be Andy Richter who is filling in for Harvard alum Conan O'Brien. After interviewing Eddie while Jessica constantly butts in, Richter says it's unlikely that a child of such a "helicopter parent" will do well at Harvard. Jessica blames herself for Eddie not getting into Harvard, but Eddie reveals that he really wants to attend culinary school. Meanwhile, Evan and Emery have a disagreement when Evan is writing his memoirs and steals some of Emery's stories as his own. In the future again, it's revealed that the Harvard graduation is Evan's in 2008, with Louis, Jessica, Eddie, Emery and Grandma Jenny all attending the ceremony.
