Eddie being surprised that Tommy is gay but not that Buck is bi is sending me

[slp.dmon]

Bucks smile when he says “I can’t stop thinking about him” is so cute 😊😊

I love so many things about this scene including how Eddie's immediate reaction is to be surprised that Tommy is gay while not questioning that Buck isn't straight even for a second 😭

[JustPommy]

"Once he gets to know you and know you're an idiot he'll love you" 💀

[lazayvion]

That "We were on a date" and the "mm-hmm" at 0:20 was SO VULNERABLE. Way to go Oliver!

[fiogio]

"Wait, Tommy's gay?" so he's not surprised about Buck.

Buck's "mhm" ( 0:22) will forever haunt me. He was so vulnerable in that moment and scared yet trusting in Eddie and their relationship. Eddie's whole demeanor and voice changing immediately when he recognizes the vulnerability on Buck... We're so lucky to have Oliver and Ryan. Oliver's acting with this storyline has been absolutely phenomenal and these two surely will make us cry even more this season. I can't believe we really have all this!!! Truly the best timeline!

This is one of the sweetest scenes they've ever had together, truly. I love that just as Eddie's leaving he knows that maybe Buck needs a bit more reassurance so he goes back for a hug. Absolutely adorable scene. 🥺 And OF COURSE Eddie was going to be so supportive all along, how sweet. ♥ I love them.

"Is that weird?" asks so much in such a simple way. And bc they're bffs Eddie understands immediately and reassures Buck so well, I'm crying, don't look at me. 😭

I love the parallel where in the previous episode Tommy encouraged Buck to call Eddie and now Eddie is encouraging him to call Tommy in almost exactly the same way.

This is definitely on the list of my favorite Coming Out scenes.
You can see Buck is nervous; believing Eddie will 99.99% accept while terrified that there’s a 00.001% he won’t.
But Eddie shows his love and acceptance, that it doesn’t change anything, and reassures Buck with a hug while advising him to give Tommy a chance.
9-1-1 really did well here ❤

I love how Eddie went “Tommy’s gay??” Instead of “your gay??”😭

[daybydaylet]

Will an uttered “mhm” ever have as much impact on me, as the one Oliver delivered? In that simple sound, it carried so much vulnerability and nervousness. It captured perfectly what anyone in Buck’s shoes goes through when sharing this part of themselves to someone who means so much. Taking the leap Buck did, trusting Eddie would catch him on the other side, is so brave and beautiful. We would all be so fortunate to find someone who you can fully share all the facets of yourself and still find they love you, regardless.

The slight hitch in Buck’s voice when he tells Eddie: “he said he doesn’t think I’m ready, ” breaks my heart a little bit.

I just saw an interview of Ryan Guzman where he said that a friend of his came out to him a few years ago. Learning about this made the scene a lot better!

[medusa]

LOVE this scene so much. The parallel of Buck looking so relieved and like he can breathe easier after kissing Tommy and then after telling Eddie. I love how we’re getting to really SEE Buck and Eddie being so open and close with each other this season 🥰

[StefaniCrook]

“He doesn’t know you’re an idiot” 😂😂

One of my favorite parts of this scene lol

[jasonstamp]

I am LOVING this evolution of Buck's character. There's a calm ease about him now that I'm really liking a lot. He's nervous and unsure of himself at the moment of course because this is all a very new exploration for him but it's almost as though something clicked into place for him and he's happier. The way Buck says that he can't stop thinking about him is so adorable. I'm really liking Buck and Tommy together quite a lot. There's something about Tommy that feels really "safe and reassuring" to me.

I know everyone's been talking about how good Eddie is with the puppy dog eyes for years, but Buck at 0:23 is just heart wrenching. Opening up the most vulnerable part of himself for his best friend just hoping for acceptance.

[aishwaryabhagat]

I love how supportive Eddie is of Buck. Their friendship is beautiful! Also, the way Buck says he can't stop thinking about Tommy is 😍
