#Season finale spec

[watmalik]

Seeing some fans on the bird app excited about the Bailey x Nolan cliffhanger for the season finale (the actor for Bailey’s ex husband is listed on imb for the ep), but I wish it was chenford bc I need Tim Bradford to somehow come into his senses that he needs Lucy Chen in his life and that she’s more than capable to take care of herself.

Oh well

Hey guys it's seasons greasons

(Featuring the Prectikar, Obin, and WaraWara, an Arasit.)

Obin is a big fan (pun intended) of the cold but not of other people screaming and jumping on his back. WaraWara is a thrill seeker and would never pass up the chance to go out in freezing temperatures dressed in only a tanktop and jump on a guy 12x her size.

not to be a lowkey cheating apologist, but they should totally go with the psych shawn spencer and juliet o’hara getting together storyline for setting up buck and eddie canon (especially that kiss in the ep before shawn and juliet get together)

let’s say that eddie gets the feelings realization arc, and just as he’s debating telling buck or no, tommy calls him up with a “i know it’s crazy and we haven’t been dating very long, but i think i wanna marry buck. i’m thinking of taking him on a weekend getaway and proposing, thoughts?” and eddie is so shocked that he can’t really do much but choke out an awkward “yeah man, that’s great. congrats”

so he decides he’ll keep his feelings his business and his business alone (and maybe cry on hen and karen’s shoulders about it). and then chris calls. he wants to come home. and he forgets all about the weekend getaway proposal plan, rushes to buck’s loft to tell him the good news. and finds buck packing. right. the getaway. the surprise proposal.

and buck asks, very cheerfully what’s up. and eddie decides to swallow the news about chris down, so buck wouldn’t cancel the getaway and come with him to el paso (because buck would and eddie wants him to, but damnit, buck deserves to be happy and he deserves the nice proposal tommy has planned). so he just says that he came to say goodbye. and has a speech, not unlike the one shawn had (if you haven’t watched psych, go at least watch that scene with their first kiss because it’s the shit), about how much fun buck is gonna have, and how happy, sincerely happy he is that he’s got tommy, and that he better take all the pictures of the nature and to do all the research on every bird and tree because he’ll be waiting to hear all about it when they get back. but, fuck, he lets too much of his true feelings show on his face, because he feels like he’s saying his forever goodbye to buck, and to the fact that he’ll never have him. and buck sees it, we see the slow realization dawning on his face the longer eddie speaks. and in the middle of eddie’s rambling, he surges forward and kisses him and it’s the most desperate, long time coming kiss we’ve ever seen—

and then we hear tommy enter through the door, calling out to buck. they immediately jump apart. try to steady their breathing, try to not look insane over what just happened.

tommy comes to the living room (or upstairs to the bedroom? somewhere where they’re not immediately in sight) and absolutely does not pick up on the heavy tension, smiling at them both, hugging buck and kisses his cheek, immediately jumping into small talk. eddie wishes them both the best of luck and a nice trip, and makes a auick getaway, avoiding buck’s sad pleading eyes. and then he goes get christopher. episode ends with them getting into their respective cars to drive to opposite directions, and we lose our collective minds lost at the cliffhanger.

madney wedding. chim is a mess but he’s alive, he’s holding jee with one arm and has both of maddie’s hands in the other. we can hear the officiant talking but the camera is focused on his face, on maddie’s, tears in their eyes and so much love between them.

wide shot shows the whole wedding party, the guests — all the decor is destroyed, flowers blown apart, because chim insisted tommy land the chopper as close as he could.

back to maddie as she says her vows, a moving speech, improvised, about loving someone through anything life throws at you — about always coming back to each other. cut to buck, over her shoulder, her man of honour, an absolute mess himself (not bachelor-party mess but helped-rescue-his-brother-in-law mess); he’s grinning, tears in his eyes, so happy for his sister and her family. he glances out, and we see his pov: tommy, also post-rescue mess, smiling softly

cut to chim, the most heartfelt vows cut with perfect snippets of humour about the chaos of the day, jee-yun’s head resting on his shoulder. as he talks about love and family and how grateful he is for these things he thought he’d never have, we get shots of the whole extended firefam; bobby and athena, hen and karen, eddie and chris, ravi, tommy, josh, sue, linda, and back to chim/maddie/jee-yun as he wraps it up, as the officiant pronounces them married, as they hold each other and share that first kiss.

the same wide-shot, whole party framing as everyone claps and cheers. back to madney. cut to the crowd from madney pov, jubilant, relieved. cut to buck, turning from the crowd as the diegetic sound is overtaken by the soundtrack, glancing out at everyone; shot from buck’s pov, focused on tommy as the music swells, as the lyrics talk about finding love or opening yourself up to love or or or, and the focus pulls, tommy blurring into the foreground as eddie comes into perfect focus, applauding, cheering, just a touch of halo lighting to catch all the edges of his hair and suit, drawing the viewer’s eye to see him in a new light.

cut back to buck, smile morphing from a huge grin to something smaller, tender, private. then he turns his head to his sister/her husband/their kid, and the camera follows his gaze as the chorus hits, jee cheering as chim presses his forehead to maddie’s. wide shot of the whole crowd once again, zooming out further and further until you can see a sweeping vista of los angeles, creating a sense of potential for the viewer, of optimism, of hope. roll credits.

more takes from internet screenwriter BUT especially with nic and luke saying that so much is packed into the season i also think that means there’s an extremely high chance of getting a whole polin wedding extravaganza (w ant walking pen down the aisle) bc it’s a statement to the ton that pen is so very loved. ok and minutiae of the event: cressida x fife; whatever their relationship status i truly think they will be a thing and they will be so unhappy. oh well... they stay losing! i also think colin will introduce eloise to philip at the reception. i don’t think benedict/sophie stuff will be at the wedding aside from benedict being like 🤔🤔🧐🧐 bc the benophie intro will happen earlier in the episode.

I’m a bit worried about the finale. Not so much in terms injuries & death (we know most everyone’s getting injured & I’m doubtful of a mcd), but in terms of how quite it’s been from the usual journalists that write about 911. Usually these days atleast one of them drops some sort of vague tweet that isn’t obviously about 911 until the episode airs and makes what it’s about clear in hindsight. Something to get the hype train going into overdrive or drops everyone’s expectations a couple of levels… but nope I’ve not seen even the littlest sign of how anyone who’s seen the finale feels about it.

[cartcop]

Don't get we wrong, I feel hopeful too, specially with the whole network change because it means the series has an actual shot of going back to the way it used to be. I feel like lately the emergencies don't have that spark anymore, so I'm looking forward to see what ABC does with them. Also, let's cross our fingers and think that they'll actually give a damn about promo and they'll use (at least in social media) what attracts more attention... I mean, if the answer is a couple of firefighters that are raising a child together, I wouldn't mind.

However, what makes me mad is that by the time they were working on the finale they weren't sure if they were going to come back or not. From what it looks like, all the characters will get a sort of happiesh?) ending just in case, because again, the ABC move back then was not a sure thing.

They did that with The Resident. Sure, at first it was supposed to be a season finale, but they still did an ending that could be interpreted as both options: season finale or series finale. Well, it was cancelled so at the end they at least got a chance to leave the characters in a good place.

That's what will happen with 911 this season, I believe, because after almost six years the show at least deserved a decent ending if for one reason or the other they were not coming back.

My point is, we know that it's not going to be an open ending, and that all the characters will be left in a good place. I know there are a lot of possibilities, but we are talking about miss Kristen Reidel, it wouldn't surprise me if Buck and Eddie end this season with Natalia and Marisol, representing a "traditional" conclusion for both characters.

It wasn't hard to leave them single, if she truly didn't want Buddie to happen, but she just had to bring two random characters for the last four episodes of the season, right? If I follow her previous patterns, what will happen is that for the general audience, Buck and Eddie will end in "heathy" relationships with Natalia and Marisol, but they will share a significant moment together that's up to interpretation for the internet. Classic queerbaiting behavior me thinks.

I'm aware that now we are far from losing the war, especially if we consider that ABC has a different target audience and that they actually tend to listen to them. So, Buddie truly has a chance of happening now.

At the end, what I'm trying to say is, I feel optimistic for the ABC move, but I'm also frustrated because if that had been the series ending, that woman would have given a poor conclusion to Buck and Eddie just because yolo?) There was no reason to have those two random characters with them.

Buddie has a second chance, but I hope and pray to the universe that ABC will realize what they have in their hands and even if *she stays, they will overule her bad takes, not only on Buddie, but for the show in general, that move was not a cheap one. If they really want for the series to last, changes need to be made.

It's also sad to think that if they had stayed at FOX or if they had cancelled the series, we never really had a chance to win, huh. Homophobia will always prevail, no matter what.

The thing with this, anon, is that mostly I think it's a really fair reading of what's been going on. I just read the information we have really differently.

I definitely agree with you that the emergencies have been meh for a while now, but to me that's just a symptom of being 6 seasons deep into a procedural; a new network might breathe a little more life into it, and I hope it does, but I've never watched a show through a network switch so I'm pretty 🤷🏻‍♀️ on how much it's gonna affect the actual content. Def hoping for more promo though.

I get what you're saying about all the character's getting a "happy-ish" ending because they didn't know about season renewal but....isn't that always how it is? Like, I don't personally see much of a difference between where it seems they're gonna leave off 6x18 than any of the other finales we've had.

And I get why a finale where one or both of the boys are in a relationship with a woman would be disappointing if we're reading it from a "they thought this might be the last episode they were ever making" angle (but I am BEGGING someone to show me what KR has said or done that makes y'all believe she hates buddie. Because I was watching casually through most of s5, I missed all that. And from the show itself, I don't get that impression at all. I am genuinely asking PLEASE i need context). But, while I've always been a buddie girlie, 6b is literally the first time I've ever thought they might actually do it. And I've been really confident since 6x13 and the interview about the couch being in play until the very last scene of the season (and still am) that the closing shot of this season is gonna be the three boys on the Diaz couch. It's just the only thing I see as a possible resolution. Not to say you can't read that as a "open for interpretation" fan service moment, but until I know exactly why people think KR is fundamentally opposed the idea of buddie together, I'm gonna be reading it the way the text tells me to.

Because while I've become a bit of a buddie truther in 6b, they're not in a place where getting together by the end of the season would make....any sense. A lot of people disagreed with me on that, but that's been my stance since like, early s6. Just cuz there was no development for them in the first half of the season at ALL, and we knew how jam packed 6b was gonna be with other plotlines with other characters. They've got a lot of growing to do before buddie canon would even be satisfying imo. I just really believe we might be on that track now.

And with that in mind, here's my perspective on the ending IF they were writing it thinking they might never write another episode again: Buck can and should end up alone at the end of the season. He should really concretely know what he's looking for, in the way he didn't when he dumped Taylor. Having Buck explore the opportunity to date someone who is fascinated by his experiences but not actually interested in him is a great way to do that, imo. Him walking away from that and realizing he needs to find someone who will, in Oliver's words, meet him where he's at. I really cannot see Natalia being relevant beyond the finale at all, and if I'm wrong, I'm gonna start seriously questioning the writers, because they've told us she's not it for him (like, even my friends who watch the show very casually were screaming "NOOOOO!!!" at the screen every time she was mentioned in 6x15).

Eddie's more complicated though. Let's say, hypothetically, they realized midway through shooting 6b that renewal wasn't likely with Fox, and they didn't know whether or not they'd be picked up by another network. Eddie's been on this little journey of self discovery about wanting a partner, and has accepted the fact that he's lonely. Ending the show with Eddie in his single status quo would be sad as hell for the GA! We have to remember, we are not the only ones watching this show, and the vast majority are not seeing buddie as romantic options for each other. That can change, I really hope it does change, I am optimistic that it WILL change; but it hasn't yet. If they were trying to wrap things up nicely, with everyone in a pretty good spot, I can see why shoving relatively-underutilized Eddie with a nice girl would be a good way to do that. Easy to undo if they got a s7, but also a lot easier to convince the GA of a love interest for Eddie being good for him, just because he's not as big of a deal to the show (which I hate. I love Eddie I want him to have the world. But Buck is the main character on this show, let's be real)

That's not to mention that this is all speculation; we don't have any idea what's gonna happen with these two women. I'm standing pretty firm in my belief that they won't end the season in relationships, but I could be wrong. And if I'm wrong about Eddie, I can see why they'd make that choice and I'm not even a little mad at it. If I'm wrong about Buck, and he ends up in a clearly doomed relationship with Natalia, I'm less cool with that, but I can see the opportunities for s7 and assume that they were working under the assumption that they'd get a renewal somewhere. If Buck ends up in a seemingly perfect and happy relationship with Natalia, my faith in the writers is gonna plummet, not because queerbaiting, but because they told us it was doomed in 6x15, and it would make it clear to me that the writers don't even know what kind of stories they want to tell on a micro, episode to episode level. But I really can't imagine that happening.

[guardian-angle22]

I feel like perhaps included in that mentioned potential scene would be a mention on how they had to give up the 8 weeks away venue bc of what carlos went through? Unless they’re gonna mess with their messed up timeline even more and say the whole season takes place in those few short weeks

[This is referencing comments I made here]

Yeah, I have long before now officially given up following along with the show's passage of time. It truly only ever ends with a headache. 🤣

And unless they locked Ronen in a dungeon after hours so he was unable to give a single thing away AND they don't plan to have TK change his uniform from saying just TK Strand... they haven't filmed the wedding yet. and I believe I saw somewhere that they're filming episode 13 right now... so unless we have more multi-episode arcs that take place over the span of a few days, the 8 week timetable doesn't seem doable.

I'm thinking a finale wedding is in the works, what about you?
