9-1-1 Star Unpacks Ravi & Buck’s Season 8 Episode 11 Scene

9-1-1‘s Anirudh Pisharody opens up about Ravi’s scene with Buck in season 8, episode 11. Though he is a well-known face to followers of the first-responder drama collection, affectionately known as “probie,” it is in 9-1-1 season 8 that Ravi Panikkar actually comes into focus. He rejoins the 118 for the latter a part of the season after Eddie (Ryan Guzman) briefly strikes to Texas, and Buck (Oliver Stark) will not be so fast to simply accept the change.

In an interview with ScreenRant‘s Rachel Foertsch, Pisharody was requested about his favourite scene to movie with Oliver Stark. The actor refers to the scene in 9-1-1 season 8, episode 11, “Holy Mom of God”, which sees Ravi making an attempt to flee Buck’s infinite dialog about Eddie by bringing in Tommy (Lou Ferrigno Jr.) and realizing that Buck won’t be as cool as he first thought:

Anirudh Pisharody: I actually preferred the quarter scene the place I sort of pawn him off on Tommy, the place I am like, “Oh my God.” That was actually cathartic. It was that scenario the place Ravi’s wished this factor so badly. He is like, “Oh my God, lastly,” after which he lastly will get it, and he is like, “Seems, I by no means wished it to start with.” I am like, “He is sort of bizarre. He simply desires to speak about Eddie the entire time. I am simply going to go away.” It was actually enjoyable to movie as a result of that morning we spent like two hours simply taking part in quarters, which neither of us had ever performed earlier than, however we’re simply hitting the desk with these quarters into these shot glasses. It was enjoyable. It was a cute second.

Pisharody was then requested if Buck and Ravi may doubtlessly have a sturdy friendship, outdoors of Buck being centered on Eddie. Within the quote under, the actor permits for the likelihood and notes that the scene in 9-1-1‘s “Holy Mom of God” could be an ungainly first try at constructing a stronger bond:

Anirudh Pisharody: Perhaps in the event that they frolfed. If we performed a bit of little bit of frisbee-golf. I feel so. I undoubtedly suppose so. It is a type of issues the place you spend a lot time with somebody that—I feel for Ravi and Buck, the second you step outdoors of that realm, they’re each simply sort of like, “Oh, that is bizarre. We have by no means seen one another like this earlier than.” So perhaps it’s simply the coaching wheels want to return off. That was the primary run by means of. It was tough, and we have simply bought to do it once more.

What The Buck & Ravi Friendship Meant For 9-1-1 Season 8

They Finally Made Progress

Though Buck and Ravi do not have probably the most free-flowing dialog throughout their first night time out, they do finally get on the identical web page. Ravi doubts himself after a tense rescue, which practically leads to the dying of a child, however Buck is aware of what to say to reassure Ravi within the second. It is a small scene, tucked into the bigger context of a two-parter that finally ends up being Bobby Nash’s final stand. Nevertheless it does spotlight that Ravi and Buck do finally transfer on from their unsuccessful first night time of bonding.

The scene that Pisharody singles out seems prefer it was primed to ship one thing main for the fan-favorite of Buck and Eddie. Maybe due to the urgency of Peter Krause leaving 9-1-1, that storyline took a backseat within the latter half of season 8. Nevertheless it’s one thing that would doubtlessly be revisited. That is very true if, as many followers hope, Pisharody will get added to the primary forged for 9-1-1 season 9.
