What happened next? S10E8
Okay, so unless I missed another deleted scene, I’m trying to head canon what happened after the punch/fall at the courthouse. Stop me if it’s been discussed already. Or better yet, point me to it. 😊
My guess is that Mickey sticks around for the ambulance to arrive, maybe calls 911 himself.
911 Operator: What’s your emergency?
Mickey: Um, yeah. There’s a dude here [at the courthouse] who just fucked his fiancé over and yadda, yadda, yadda (Seinfeld), he’s got a broken leg.
But does Mickey ride with Ian to the hospital? A part of him must want to, given that he’s pretty much appointed himself Ian’s guardian angel (and I mean that in the most loving way possible and no, I’m not here to debate/defend/decry the punch). Of course he feels guilty about being the catalyst for Ian’s injured leg; he definitely did not intend for that to happen.
But Mickey’s hurting too, so I wouldn’t expect him to go to the hospital. Or maybe I would because Mickey probably would anyway.
I don’t think the boys would do a whole lotta talking though. My gut tells me that Mickey would stick with Ian through the whole damn process, get him home safely and then take off.
Or...would Ian, pissed about the fall/broken leg AND realizing Mickey needed space, insist that Mickey leave him alone and not come with him?
Shit. Imagine while they are deciding on whether Mickey is coming along, the EMT tech wants to know what is Mickey’s relationship to the patient. Gah! I just made my own heart hurt.
Hoping others will chime in, or maybe there’s some fanfic out there.......
