‘9-1-1’ Finale Preview: Eddie’s Shot (Again)?!

At the end of the penultimate episode of 9-1-1 Season 9, it looked like the finale would be spent worrying that Athena (Angela Bassett) could die after being shot. But now, the promo for the May 7 finale reveals that we also have to worry about Eddie (Ryan Guzman)!

The April 30 episode ended with Athena being shot by a corrupt detective, Hooks (Josh Stamberg), amidst what he’d told her was a raid of a mob house; he killed their target, claiming he’d had a gun, then shot her when she called him out on there not being a weapon.

Now, the preview for the 9-1-1 Season 9 finale, “Hearts and Flowers,” begins with Hen (Aisha Hinds) and Eddie bringing Athena to the hospital, and she’s lost a lot of blood. The rest of the 118, including her son Harry (Elijah M. Cooper), joins them there. She goes into cardiac arrest and is taken into surgery, where she seemingly flatlines … or does she?

Promos can be cut to be misleading, and the rest of this one reveals Maddie (Jennifer Love Hewitt) reporting there’s an active shooter at the hospital, which goes into lockdown. Chimney (Kenneth Choi) yells for everyone to get on the ground. Eddie presses the button for the elevator with a bloody hand, and it looks like he was shot again (remember the sniper?), this time in his side. Uh-oh! Watch the video above.

We’ll also have to see if the finale has anything more about Buck (Oliver Stark) and his biological son, Theo, from his sperm donation to his friends Kameron (Chelsea Kane) and Connor (Colin McCalla). They died during a crash on a bridge during the penultimate episode, and a next of kin hasn’t been revealed just yet. Could this lead to Buck taking him in? It does seem like a strong possibility.
