PJ decided not to jump from the roof after Rome talked him down. He later found out that Jon, who he thought was his father, was not his biological father.
In the ABC drama “A Million Little Things,” PJ is a character who initially believes that Jon Dixon, one of the main characters who commits suicide in the pilot episode, is his biological father. This belief stems from a mixtape that PJ’s mother, Barbara Morgan, kept from her past relationship with Jon. PJ connects with Rome Howard, one of Jon’s friends, and through this connection, he becomes entangled in the lives of the show’s main group of friends.
PJ’s storyline reaches a climax when he climbs onto the roof of a building, contemplating suicide as he struggles with the revelation that Jon may not be his father and the overall impact of his presumed father’s suicide. Rome, who has his own history with depression and suicidal thoughts, is able to empathize with PJ and talks him down from the ledge, literally and figuratively.
After this intense moment, PJ undergoes a paternity test which confirms that Mitch is his biological father, not Jon. This revelation is difficult for PJ, but it also brings some closure to his identity crisis. The show continues to explore PJ’s journey as he deals with the aftermath of these events, his mental health struggles, and the complex dynamics within his family and the larger friend group affected by Jon’s death.
