Rewatching 7x03 And I Just Noticed That In The Underwater Shot Of The Capsized Cruise Ship They Animated

Rewatching 7x03 and I just noticed that in the underwater shot of the capsized cruise ship they animated a little shark swimming by! I missed that the first time round but whoever came up with the idea deserves an award.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about the fact Tommy walks AROUND the table when he’s leaving after flipping Buck’s world on its head. The door is very easily accessible and it makes much more sense to go right instead of left if that’s where he’s going to end up. I get it was probably blocking reasons (a massive camera and multiple crew members were blocking the way) but I like to think that even though he had to rush off he wanted to drag out their time together just a little bit more, and the only way to do that was to take the scenic route round Buck’s kitchen (that or he needed something between them to stop himself going back for seconds).

I love that Tommy basically has his own theme song that’s used whenever he’s mentioned. Its all twinkly and just encompasses all the happy, fuzzy feelings Buck has about him. It’s most notable after he kisses Buck first time round but it keeps popping up, most recently when Bobby asks if Buck is going to see him. It’s just another thing that convinced me Tommy is special.

Tell me why I've yet to see a video/edit of the tevan/bucktommy reveal in 7x06 to that one audio from TASM. You know, the one that goes:

"What happened to your face? It's filthy!"

"Oh, yeah, I was cleaning the chimney"

"We have no chimney!"

"Whaaaaaaaat!"

Like come on! It's literally MADE for this scene. Someone please make it for me. Please.

And now the disney+ description is 'Athena's son finds himself in trouble with the law'? C'mon man!

It's forever going to bother me that 7x04 is seemingly going to be known by the media as 'The Bachelor Crossover'. Like no. It took up about 5 mins of the episode. More important things happened in that episode. MUCH more important things.

Buck and Eddie plan to propose to each other on the same day (anniversary or coincidence). In preparation, they make the rounds to ask permission for the other’s hand, because even though it’s a bit outdated they feel it’s important for them as a couple to do.

Eddie goes to Maddie first. She’s over the moon, telling Eddie it’s about time and that he’s had her blessing since the day Buck came home raving about the insufferable new guy at work. She feels a little guilty allowing this because she’s been helping Buck plan his own proposal, but if anything, the fact that the two are planning to propose at the same time shows just how much they belong together.

Bobby is the other person Eddie asks. Despite not being related, everyone knows how significant Bobby is in Buck’s life, with their father-son bond being seen but unmentioned. Bobby initially doesn’t understand why Eddie is asking him so Eddie has to explain how important Bobby’s blessing would be to both of them. He happily agrees, fighting off tears of pride over the thought of his kid settling down with the man he handpicked for him.

Buck obviously asks Christopher first. It’s so important that Christopher is onboard with the whole thing, having had many similar conversations over the course of Buck and Eddie’s relationship to avoid anymore broken salad bowls. Christopher is ecstatic at the thought of Buck legally becoming his family, eagerly giving his blessing with an air of ‘you’re an idiot to think I would say no’ that only a teenager can pull off. Their conversation ends with an ominous remark from Chris that Buck better hurry up and do it soon, stemming from the exact same conversation being had days prior with Eddie.

Abuela is next on Buck’s list. Being the matriarch of the Diaz family, her approval would be significant for Buck’s family-oriented ‘nester’ of a boyfriend, who had struggled to shake the last few teachings from his upbringing. Besides, even though she moved back to Texas, Isabel is Eddie’s favourite Diaz outside of Christopher. She respects Buck for asking her and gives her full blessings on the condition that he send her a picture of the ring and a video of the proposal.

Finally, Buck goes to Shannon. Despite their tumultuous relationship, there is no doubt that Eddie loved her fiercely, comparing every subsequent partner to her until he got together with Buck. Because of this, Buck feels it’s important he let her know about his plans. He visits her grave, sharing updates on how Eddie and Chris are doing, assuring her he doesn’t want to replace her but explaining how he feels both he and Eddie are finally ready to take that final step in their relationship. He thinks the best way to honour her memory and her own relationship with Eddie is to ask for her blessing. While he knows he won’t get an answer, Buck swears he hears a whisper on the wind saying ‘yes’.
