Combat, Eddie’s ready for combat. It’s finally time for Han, Cil, and Rachel to discuss an episode they know All Too Well, Season 3 Episode 15 of 9-1-1, “Eddie Begins.” So grab your poncho, hardhats, and oxygen tanks, because we’re going spelunking in Eddie’s psyche! We dive deep (40 feet, to be exact!) into one of the best episodes of the show with thorough explorations of his tumultuous relationships with Shannon and his parents in the past, compared to the strong bonds and family he’s formed with the 118 in the present. And of course, at the heart of all of it: Christopher. Enjoy metaphors about Eddie’s rebirth of sorts, and dragging Eddie’s parents through the mud! Stoking the fires of our Buck and Eddie slow burn section is easy work this week as we compare their partnership and equally having each other’s backs to how Eddie and Shannon were never able to do so. We break down Buck’s Lassie-coded meltdown, the implications of the rest of the topside 118 handling him with spouse gloves, and Buck being the other half of Eddie’s guiding force back to life. After all, Eddie’s not alone — he’s got Christopher and Buck steadfastly at his side to help him hold on to who he wants to be! Eddie’s been the archer He’s been the prey Who could ever leave him, darling? (Shannon) But who could stay?
