there’s something so bonkers about writing and filming a scene of buck throwing himself to the ground using his bare hands to try and claw his way to eddie while he screams ‘eddie! eddie! eddie! no, eddie!’, only to never mention it after.

hey remember when they had a canonically gay character tell buck he already has a boyfriend because he 100% thought buck was flirting / probably KNEW buck was flirting based on past experiences he’s had with other queer men hitting on him???
yea that is insane actually

“Your mother will watch over the trees,” he said carefully, as gentle as he knew how to be. “They’ll be fine.” He said, “They’ll still grow as long as she’s there.” Grace looked at him. “And who will watch over her?” she asked, and Colonel went silent.

i still fit the shirt i wore the first time you saw cracks in my facade; how the hate was insecurity, how i longed then, i still wear it sometimes.
i still wear the same hammering of my heart the first time i met you, i still keep it a secret sometimes, how i long now.

(Hen, Chimney and Ravi all rush into Cap's office while he's at his desk, and shut the door)
Bobby:...Problem?
Chimney: So, we originally thought the whole 'Eddie being jealous of Buck and Tommy'-thing was gonna be funny.
Hen: And adorable.
Ravi: And it was!
Hen: For a while.
Bobby: But now...
Chimney: - But now it's TERRIFYING, Cap! We're afraid for our lives!
Ravi: I made it through juvenile leukemia, Cap. But I don't think I can survive this one.
Chimney(goes to hold Ravi):...Think of the young one, Cap! Please, HE'S JUST A BOY!
Bobby(sighs):...Alright, go tell Eddie to come in here.
Hen:...Do we have to be in here when he's in here?
Bobby: No, you do not.
(relieved, the other three all rush out of the office)

just had the revelation, all thanks to eddie’s silly playful tap to buck’s arm in the locker room scene btw
but
eddie is always the first to initiate casual touches between the two of them… and i just find that is super fucking important.
now, the moment we see buck initiate something between the two? i think it is going to be a very Big moment for them, and i cannot wait
yes i am saying eddie confesses first, buck kisses first

if the 911 people weren't planning for buddie since 201 then why did they force ryan guzman to make the most besotted expression in the world during the "you can have my back any day" scene

SO. i was able to figure out the general structure of the script JLH leaked.
[explanation under the cut]
in order for all this to make sense, the first thing you need to know is that in north america all screenplays (scripts) are written in the same format
knowing this, we can deduce the general structure of the scene and even the length of some of the words
first we need to address the big question everyone's been asking:
are they talking about Bobby or Eddie?
screenplays are always typed in courier font, and in courier the capital letters B and E are identical at their left sides.
so while i enjoy people trying to figure out if the blurry letter in line 24 is a B or an E, the answer is it could honestly be either
where we really need to look is line one. the screengrab is blurry so i've outlined the word "going" and circled the area we should pay attention to
at first, the last letter of the prior word looks like an undistinguishable blob, but there is actually one key thing we can discern from it: the letter can't be y, it doesn't hang low enough
there is a chance that the word is not a name and is "he" which would not rule out Bobby or Eddie. however, that would mean the conversation goes on for at least 14 lines without mentioning "him" by name which is (heavily) frowned against in screenwriting. so chances are they're talking about Eddie
also, with what we know about the characters it's most likely Eddie. can you really see Bobby not talking to Buck because of... well, anything? and we already know that Eddie has a difficult time communicating. so i've decided to go with him for this script but haven't 100 per cent ruled Bobby out
moving on to the actual script itself, anything not highlighted in red is something i'm confident is either the exact wording or something similar. the red sections are the parts that i'm less confident in or know are incorrect somehow
Maddie's first dialogue block is the part i had the most trouble with. with context from the following conversation i figured that she probably asked something along the lines of when [Eddie] will be back at work. the main issue with this section is that the top line is actually six letters shorter than what i have written. this also means that the word that follows "going" has to be at least eight letters long. i tried messing around with the dialogue a bit but couldn't come up with something that would fit the appropriate letter count so for now i just wrote a line similar to what i think the actual line probably is
line six has to be either 12 or 13 spaces long and the first word has to be at least four letters long so i used "really soon" as a place holder, but i'm not completely confident in it
for line eight i initially had "Oh, that's good." but the line was one space short so i changed the "Oh" to "Hey" instead. i don't feel too poorly about this one but it still doesn't feel right to me. if the actual script says "Hey" i wouldn't be surprised if JLH changes it to something else or forgoes the exclamation completely
the final line is just a rough guess of what it could be. i'm not sure how formal the 911 writers are with action lines so i just took a random guess. some writers are extremely formal with action lines while others are more comedic with it (Neil Gaiman is a great example of this). i'm guessing the 911 writers are more the former but i honestly have no clue

"Do you... want to talk about it?" Buck offered, and Eddie knew that dealing with it himself hadn't exactly been working so far.
Eddie just looked up at him a moment, giving him another sigh that made Buck raise his eyebrows a little.
"I don't know, we're just in that pivotal point in a relationship I guess," he said.
"In what way?" Buck asked. "I mean I thought you guys already made it clear you weren't dating other people? It wasn't the 'your job is too much for me' conversation was it? That one sucks."
Eddie gave him the slightest of laughs, a smile and an exhale through his nose.
"No that one's just a you problem I think," he said. "No, it was... I mean it was a little more... she wants to take the next step, and I'm a little... hesitant."
"The next step? What next step? You're not already thinking of moving in together are you?" he said, and Buck couldn't have hidden his disapproval at that if he tried, he had a very transparent face.
"No, no we're not close to that," Eddie shook his head. "No I mean... she wants to take a physical step."
For a moment Buck had a look of confusion on his face, staring back at Eddie like he was waiting for him to keep going but Eddie just gave him a firm gaze and waited for him to put things together.
"Wait... you guys haven't..." Buck said, brows shooting up high on his forehead. "Oh."
a.k.a Eddie needs more time and connection to feel sexual attraction, and Marisol has trouble understanding. Eddie leans on Buck for the support and understanding he can always count on. Things go unsaid between them that aren't yet ready to come out.
