#But they came back. And then Taylor was gone. And Buck's not clinging anymore but he's not happy either

I don't think 9-1-1 is in the business of killing off mains but I get the feeling something catastrophic is coming Buck's way and it's not going to be the car incident
#Time is a central theme that unites and binds Buck and Eddie but it is a theme that has been attributed to Eddie for the most part via
#dialogue/context/circumstance/etc.
#But last night Lev specifically mentions the concept of time in relation to happiness; not to Eddie this time but to Buck
#in a way that simply cannot be mistrued or extrapolated or taken to mean or be associated with anyone else
#Kind of makes me wonder about Buck's mental/emotional trajectory as well. Last season he clung to Taylor because he was afraid
#of being left again. Understandable since he lost three key people in his life within a matter of months.
#But they came back. And then Taylor was gone. And Buck's not clinging anymore but he's not happy either
#so why the connection between Buck and Time? It's been so effectively established but why establish it at all?
#Does he feel like Taylor was his last chance at the life he wanted? Wife. Kids. Happiness
#(or at least some approximation of it)
#That would put Lev's words into an even greater perspective: how he had this Thing that Buck actively desires and craves and it still
#wasn't enough.
#This thing that leaves Buck wondering 'if he had it all and it wasn't enough what will be enough?'
#The question is: does he have the time to figure it out?
#Because Buck might feel like *his* time js running out in the same way all human beings feel like there is never enough time
#to heal the way they want to heal / achieve what they want to achieve / be who they want to be...
#But Buck is a character trapped within a narrative he has no choice but to dance to
#and that narrative is feeling so. Damning these days.
#He feels like he doesn't have time but I'm willing to bet he has even less time than he thinks he has.
