Curate, connect, and discover
walk with me here. 8x15 opens and we’re in el paso, eddie is at home on his couch looking at the unanswered texts he’s sent to buck. (buck always answers, even when he’s on shift, why isn’t he answering!!) he sends one more text “hey kinda getting worried here. just send me some proof of life please”. he sighs puts the phone down and turns on the tv. big flashing breaking news sign “DANGEROUS VIRUS THREATENS DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES. FIRST RESPONDERS TRAPPED AND QUARANTINED INSIDE BIO LAB.” the news helicopter shows shows the scene and we see all of the tents and military equipment and off to the side, the 118 engine. then the reporter (bonus points if they bring back taylor) “we’re getting word that a dangerous virus is in danger of being released into the city of los angeles after a fire broke out in the laboratory and an explosion resulted in the total lockdown of the facility, trapping first responders inside with this highly contagious and deadly virus. no word yet on the fate of the brave heroes of fire engine 118, or what this could mean for los angeles as a whole”. cut to eddie’s devastated face and then we cut to 911 title card.
