#3x08: malfunction

[911whatsyourgratitude]

I'm grateful for "Malfunction"! It has everything I love about 911 in one episode: fun calls, firefam humor (Bobby's secret figure skating past), personal struggles (Henren's fertility struggles and Eddie's grief), and the episode title theme woven perfectly though every scene. It starts on a hilarious note with the ice show call ("I haven't seen this much blood on the ice since a squirrel crawled in the Zamboni") and ends with one of the most devastating scenes of the entire show, Hen's ambulance collision (seriously, why didn't Aisha will ALL THE AWARDS for season 3???). I love the big, dramatic episodes too, like the tsunami arc and May Day, but there's a special place in my heart for ones that have a perfect balance of calls and main character storylines, humor and angst.

Hit The Floor 2x12 || 9-1-1 3x08

(for @bedhadakdiaz)

[Image ID: eight small square gifs of Jude Kinkade and Eddie Diaz from Hit The Floor episode 2.12, "Winner Takes All" and 9-1-1 episode 3.08, "Malfunction." It is a parallel set, with Jude on the left and Eddie on the right:

GIF 1: Jude talking to Zero in the locker room, saying "I'm mad" while looking him directly in the eye.

GIF 2: Jude trying to explain his anger, his frustration evident through the way he emphasizes the words, looking away to gesture around them with his gaze. He says, "Mad at myself, mad at this situation."

GIF 3: Jude's brow furrowing as he emphasizes his words. "Mad that I need something from you, mad that I can't get it."

GIF 4: Jude bracing himself as resignation enters his tone, still looking frustrated. "Most of all, I'm mad that there's nothing I can do about any of it."

GIF 5: Eddie sitting at the firehouse kitchen table with Bobby as they discuss why Eddie is losing control. Eddie explains, with tears in his eyes and choked-up voice, "And I'm...I'm still mad." about Shannon wanting a divorce.

GIF 6: Eddie laughing self-deprecatingly as he says, "How stupid is that? I'm angry at a dead person and at myself..."

GIF 7: A continuation of GIF 6, Eddie saying "...because I forgave her...for everything and..." while emphasizing the words, tears glimmering in his eyes.

GIF 8: Eddie looking up at Bobby, broken, as he says, "...and it wasn't enough. I wasn't enough." His jaw is set, self-loathing in his expression.

I wonder if episode 3x08 was hinting that if one does not know how to look out for hints of queerness they might end up falling flat on their face x)

"Hansel and Gretel hit the ice for their bread crump shtick and boom, bloodbath on the ice."

"What Is Breadcrumbing?

Breadcrumbing is the act of sending out flirtatious, but non-committal social signals (i.e. "breadcrumbs") in order to lure a romantic partner in without expending much effort. In other words, it's leading someone on."

So Hansel and Gretel hit the ice to do their gimmick - a performance which is meant to lead someone on... And boom, an unexpected bloodbath.

The way that Hen accidentally hands over a laryngoscope (the instrument used for examining the voice box)... Like they're saying "pay attention to what's being said". Eddie finds a pinky finger (gayyy) on the ice, Buck finds a middle finger (a message to the unexpecting audience, maybe?), Hansel blurts out that he broke up with Gretel because she wasn't leaving...

Then Bobby talks with the witch - bear in mind that "snowy owl" is also slang and basically means a counterfeit, a deception.

And 'everyone went toe pick' means unexpected face planting - Figure skaters need toe picks but beginners stumble and fall because of them. "Toe pick!" is also a movie reference, it's from Cutting Edge in which Kate, a professional figure skater keeps taunting Doug, a hockey player, who keeps falling because he isn't used to toe picks.

So here:

Kinda sounds like "one of the con artists went all in and everyone fell for it."

But Bobby, as it turns out, is no amateur, he used to figure skate and the toe picking instantly makes him think of sequins...

Bobby knows what to look for, the thing that stops you in your tracks.

Where does this keen eye for sequins come from, the team wonders...

Also might I point out the music choice... It's Paganini, the composer who was known for his incredible virtuosity with both violin AND guitar. He was such an incredible virtuoso with the violin what rumour said he'd sold his soul to the devil. The queer subtext of delivering the line 'who says you can't do both?' to the notes of a known deviant such as Paganini? Strong.

(Notice where Chimney is pointing...?)

Also Hen's expressions while she's looking at Buck and Eddie...

🤔 Who says you can't do both.

(Oh, also the way the witch is green like in Wizard of Oz, and Hansel "has no heart" much like Tinman... Are you perhaps saying that we're not in Kansas anymore?)

And hey, the name of the episode was Malfunction.

"A wardrobe malfunction is a clothing failure that accidentally or intentionally exposes a person's intimate parts."

So they've exposed something intimate, there's a sequin on the ice... Too bad for the ones who can't see it. Might end up faceplanting real hard.

I love how Buck literally reaches his elbow out to Eddie after E touches B’s arm. It’s like he WANTED to touch E’s arm. Why did he have to do that? I think it’s because B wants to touch E whenever he has the opportunity.

Anyone agree?
