#911 6a speculation

[shebles123]

Buddie predictions/speculation for the remainder of 6A:

SPOILER TALK/BTS

Episode 7 (Cursed):

Eddie gets cursed by the bracelet lol (he just doesn't believe it until later).

Eddie doesn't think anything of it (because curses aren't real...right, Eddie?).

Eddie and Chris go to the beach and Buck has plans to meet them there (Evidence: Ryan and Gavin were seen filming on the beach a few weeks ago).

Buck calls Eddie while driving and says that he's almost there (Evidence: Oliver was seen filming in Buck's jeep near the beach a few weeks ago).

Buck gets another call from the sperm donation clinic that there is some kind of complication and he won't be able to donate (Evidence: Oliver mentioned in an interview that the sperm donor storyline would reappear in episode 7 and indicated that there would be complications).

Buck spirals and while he's spiraling/still driving, his jeep gets t-boned (I'm taking the car incident in episode 4 as a foreshadow. I don't think buck is out of the danger zone just yet when it comes to car accidents).

Episode 8 (911, What's Your Fantasy?)

Buck winds up in a coma/on a vent.

Eddie spirals and starts to believe in curses.

The episode title comes in to play as we see snippets of Buck and Eddie's fantasies about their futures. Perhaps Buck (while in his coma) dreams of having a family and kids. Perhaps Eddie thinks about a potential romantic future with Buck.

Regardless, we get some kind of confirmation that eddie is feeling non-platonic things for Buck. This could be as simple as an obviously romantic-coded look/shot, or it could be as big as a third party confession. But either way, we will KNOW buddie is headed in a romantic direction by the end of this episode.

Episode 9 (Red Flag):

As I mentioned in a previous post, "Red flag" is a term used in Emergency Medicine to indicate that something really serious could be happening with a patient. I think Buck's condition will worsen before he gets better (a sort of tarlos parallel). Perhaps the red flag will have something to do with Buck's heart (dropping BP, heart rate issues, etc.) so we can have the heart theme from 5B continue.

Eddie continues to spiral.

Buck finally starts getting better.

There is a cute mid season montage and in the middle of that we get a third party confession from Eddie (to probably chim) that he's in love with Buck. And that's our cliffhanger for the season.

Do I think all of this will happen? Absolutely not. Do I think some of this could happen? Absolutely! Do I believe we will know that buddie is definitively going in a romantic direction by the end of 6A? Yes 100%.

Let me know your thoughts! Feel free to add things!

I’m sure someone has already said this, but Hen’s queer realization moment was realizing she wanted to kiss her best friend, and now we have Buck showing up on Hen’s doorstep. Hopefully about to discuss that with someone who has experienced the same thing.

Okay, I’ve had brain rot thinking about this for a few months now, so I’m gonna try to put it into words, now that we’ve seen the season 5 finale.

911 has amazing queer characters, relationships, storylines and one off characters. However, they don’t have a single queer character who didn’t “come out” to the audience in their first episode. Okay, I’m not entirely sure about Josh’s first appearance, but Josh fits a stereotype well enough that he didn’t have to say anything that confirmed he’s gay in his first episode on the show.

There’s no one that we were “supposed to” assume was straight that later came out to us after they were an established character.

My guess is that we won’t get Buddie until after they’ve done this, to test audience reactions. Because the show runners will want to know that they won’t get a bunch of fans jumping ship over them “making everyone gay”.

I think that if Buddie is endgame, then there’s a good chance we get either Lucy, Ravi, May or Albert coming out as gay or bi in 6a, before they make moves towards Buddie actually happening in 6b. Probably Lucy or Ravi if they’re just doing a coming out storyline, because we haven’t seen their personal lives very much. If it’s a realization and then coming out after that storyline, then it will probably be May or Albert, because we’ve seen more of their personal lives, seen them at home, we know their families.

Of course, I would also love to just see any of these characters come out for their own sake, especially if it gives us another heartfelt Han brothers storyline.

TLDR—I think if we get an already established recurring character coming out in 911 season 6 then there’s a good chance we get canon Buddie too
