Everyone Has A Secret

Ryan and Oliver during their second panel at Saving Lives 2.

Where all the other characters are shown to regularly attend in-person therapy, Buck sticks with zoom therapy because the first and last time he had an in-person therapist she slept with him during the session. Where Hen was chastised for trying to treat herself and where Maddie checked herself into an actual rehab facility, for Buck the gang decides it's best to build a home-grown rehab facility around him instead.

Buck being born to have his bone marrow harvested as an infant. His parents' insistent hatred of hospitals shoved in his face every time he's hurt. Maddie's abusive husband being a doctor. Malicious imaginary coma-dream Daniel being a doctor. Getting his leg crushed and being told by his doctors that his dreams are coming to an end. Getting screws in his leg and almost dying from the embolism they caused. Trying to escape the never-ending stretching halls of the hospital in his coma dream. Getting obliterated by a car-crash-kidnapping combo, being taken to the hospital, and being prescribed opioids that he immediately gets addicted to. And when he talks to an actual doctor about the problem he practically gets told to fuck off and figure it out.

It's the thing that ties us all together, so that no one person has to carry the weight alone.

Because yes it’s such an intimate flirty moment between them (which seems to be happening in an increasingly amount this season)

But Eddie’s breathy little laugh a smile? Do I think there is romantic feelings aspects to it? Yes. The way he’s looking at Buck and their flirting I fully think that.

But I am also fully convinced it’s part of him having a moment of “There he is. I was so afraid I lost him in New Mexico. But I finally see that man again. He’s right here. I didn’t leave you there at all”

Pylades: I’ll take care of you. Orestes: It’s rotten work. Pylades: Not to me. Not if it’s you.
