Since we're seeing BoBs complaining ✨️again✨️ about Tommy being a pallbearer, let's just think for a second.
It's been pointed out before a million times that it's customary to have members of a Captain's house carry the coffin, that's why it's not Harry or May. Next.
"But Tommy isn't in Bobby's house, it makes no sense." If we're using that argument, Eddie also shouldn't be a pallbearer because, at the moment, he's not a member of the 118. Next.
"But Tommy didn't even really know Bobby." Babes, we can't keep having to quote canon, on-screen moments that prove this wrong every time just because you ppl watch the show with your eyes closed and your ears plugged. Next.
"Well, why don't they put another random firefighter from the 118, then?" 😮💨😮💨 Okay. Let's put on our thinking hats for a second. Who is the General Audience going to be less surprised to see in that spot? A random firefighter who we've never seen before ('cause they've never even been consistent with the last names of the background firefighters, let's be real)? Or the recurring character who:
Was an OG member of Bobby's first crew at the 118 and who spent months under his command.
Was a key element in saving Bobby and Athena from the cruise ship last year.
Was a part of the most recent, two-part emergency where he was a key element in saving Bobby's crew.
Dated Bobby's pseudo-son for 6 months.
Bobby *verbatim* said was good people and good for Buck.
Has been mentioned constantly, even in episodes he wasn't in, keeping him in the audience's mind.
Seriously? WHO makes more sense? A random person we've never seen or the character who was literally in the previous episode who has many connections to Bobby, even beyond their own personal one?
Like, be for fucking real. BoBs, babes, you just don't want to see Tommy 'cause you hate him. JUST SAY THAT instead of trying to pull dumb empty arguments from your asses. At least that way you people would be honest. 🙄🙄
