Tuesday could also be Gina Torres‘ birthday, however it was she who gave us a present by way of this week’s 9-1-1: Lone Star.
When Tommy and Trevor’s relationship grew to become the topic of less-than-idle gossip at church, the latter thought of ending issues between them, as some of these rumors are apparently what drove him from his final congregation. He even tried to sofa the breakup with flattery, telling Tommy, “I’ve by no means met anybody such as you.” However she wasn’t having any of that noise, not ready even a second earlier than replying, “You by no means will once more.”
“It made me consider all of the occasions that I personally couldn’t discover the braveness to say it out loud,” Torres tells TVLine. “It was such a liberating, highly effective, great factor. I like anytime you see a lady lean into her price, unapologetically. She is aware of she’s a fantastic catch, she is aware of what she’s completed, she is aware of the mountains that she climbs each single day. I cherished having the ability to say that out loud on behalf of all the ladies on the market, and to allow them to know that they’ll say this out loud too.”
However it was Tommy’s last scene that made us wish to rise up and cheer. Dressed to kill in a purple jumpsuit, she turned heads by coming into the church halfway via the service, seizing management of the pulpit and placing these nosey gossips of their place — utilizing precise Bible verses, no much less!
“I cherished strolling down that aisle,” Torres says, including that the script initially known as for a purple costume, till the jumpsuit known as her identify throughout a wardrobe becoming. “It was one other stage of ‘come at me.’ And once I learn her speech for the primary time, I believed, ‘Wow, that’s daring. We’re simply going there, huh?’ Tommy completely does not care now.”
Given Trevor’s hesitance to deal with their relationship with the congregation, you would possibly’ve anticipated him to be upset with Tommy for her directness — however you’d be flawed. As an alternative, he celebrated her braveness with a kiss in entrance of everybody within the church.
“I don’t suppose they’ll have any extra issues at church,” Torres says of the joyful couple. “I don’t suppose anyone else desires to get known as out.”
Now that she and Trevor have gone public, would possibly Tommy be able to turn out to be a preacher’s spouse? Let’s not get forward of ourselves. Although the topic of marriage apparently has been mentioned, Torres says there’s nonetheless lots to determine in regards to the couple earlier than something is made authorized.
“A part of the conversations that I’ve had with [showrunner Tim Minear] and the writers is, you already know, does Tommy love Jesus as a lot as Trevor does?” Torres says. “I don’t know! That’s one thing they’ve to determine and work via collectively.”
Elsewhere this week, Paul performed Sherlock Holmes and deduced that Kendra was not answerable for Brett’s loss of life. Actually, Brett by chance killed himself… whereas hatching a plot to kill Kendra! Brett deliberate to poison his spouse by mixing a bottle of alcohol with a paralytic toxin, however he by chance spilled some on himself within the course of, therefore his incapacity to exit his cryotherapy chamber earlier than freezing to loss of life.
Sadly, Paul didn’t determine it out earlier than Kendra drank a few of her poisoned alcohol, which practically killed each her and Owen, because the captain bravely (and maybe foolishly) carried out mouth-to-mouth on her poisoned lips.
What did you consider Tommy’s daring stand? How in regards to the decision to Kendra’s husband’s homicide? And the place can we hope each {couples} go from right here? Drop a remark along with your ideas beneath.
