so ur saying. after last week where buck was straight. he ends up roadtripping with his bestfriendcoworkerhusbandguy. and he’s like. eddie!!! let’s NOT take the I-10 (stupid), let’s take the side roads. and eddie’s emotionally pussy whipped so he goes. yeah great idea buck!! and they get super lost and start fighting like a married couple. and so they end up a dinner where they have a little domestic and every single patron and staff member thinks they are gay and married. and then they get HATE CRIMED and CHASED OUT with a GUN because someone starts being homophobic and eddie just won’t stand for it. and then through Circumstances and Reasons buck gets kidnapped by a divorced couple trying to replace their braindead son. which is honestly a really awesome contrived situation for buck buckley who replaced his own dead brother. meanwhile the cops won’t help eddie because they’re HOMOPHOBIC and think eddie KILLED his HUSBAND. but because that literally is his bestfriendcoworkerhusbandguy he starts behaving crazily and goes on the run while injured in order to find #hisbuck. and eddie absolutely fucks these people who kidnapped buck up. and then bucks like “you look like hell” and eddie’s like “you should see the other guy” and buck (#hisbuck) goes “i am the other guy:)” whatever that is supposed to mean??? and also this episode begins and ends with a carry on wayward son needle drop. anyway. remember how buck was straight last week?

buck BEGGED to sacrifice himself for eddie and chris btw. if you even care.

hearing Carry On My Wayward Son on a network television show with queerbait allegations in 2026 was fucking crazy and activated my fight or flight response and I’m still running on adrenaline
