Months after Bobby’s loss of life, 9-1-1 season 9 is teasing one other main demise within the 118. ABC rocked Ryan Murphy’s premier first-responder sequence when Peter Krause was unexpectedly written out of the present. For years, he was one of many present’s predominant characters, so killing off Bobby in such a stunning vogue despatched ripples to 9-1-1‘s large fandom. A number of months later, it stays a speaking level each for viewers and the characters within the procedural.
Bobby’s loss of life was chalked as much as the intention of grounding the sequence when 9-1-1 was by no means about realism. In actual fact, that is a part of its enchantment — to have the ability to watch intense calls whereas additionally having the re-assurance that on the finish of it, the primary forged will stroll away from them with out everlasting harm. Bobby’s loss of life adjustments that entire notion, with 9-1-1 season 9 already following his demise with Eddie’s abuela passing away.
Sadly, if 9-1-1 season 9, episode 6, “Household Historical past’s” new trailer (through TV Promos/YouTube) pays off its tease, the 118 is sure to lose one other member in Hen. As seen within the promo, her hand will get numb, with the clip ending along with her collapsing. Watch the video under:
Hen’s seeming well being scare is not the primary time that she has gone by way of a near-death expertise this season. As a part of 9-1-1 season 9’s four-part premiere, she and Athena have been despatched on an area journey that, unsurprisingly, went fallacious. She and the remainder of her fellow explorers have been in a position to come again dwelling, fortunately. It could be a waste if she finally ends up being useless simply a few weeks later. By way of storytelling, 9-1-1 can be nonetheless coping with the backlash from Bobby’s loss of life, so killing one other main character now just isn’t going to be of their greatest curiosity.
Whereas the probabilities of Hen dying are little or no to none, the teaser poses main questions on what is occurring to her. It may very well be a short lived well being scare that got here from his outer area expedition. There’s additionally a risk that it’s a season-long arc for the character, which signifies that the thriller will not be solved in the identical episode. For context, the outing would be the present’s ultimate providing this yr, which makes Hen’s destiny the right cliffhanger narrative. On the flip facet, 9-1-1 season 9 going again to mad circumstances raises the potential for this to be a crimson herring.
No matter what lies forward for Hen, her plot is unquestionably going to deliver up some feelings from 118. Bobby’s loss of life remains to be recent of their minds, despite the fact that they’ve began the method of transferring on. From the appears to be like of it, 9-1-1 season 9 has an emotional fall finale in its arms.
