“9-1-1” returns this Thursday with an episode that explores the emotional aftermath of tragedy. In “The Last Alarm,” the 118 faces the difficult task of honoring a fallen colleague. The station house becomes a place of mourning as the team grapples with loss and remembrance.
Amid the grief, Athena Grant takes on a case close to her heart – or, perhaps more accurately, close to the heart of a grieving mother. Athena reopens a cold case involving the death of a child, determined to find answers and offer a measure of closure. The episode seems to present a balance between personal grief and the ongoing demands of emergency response, demonstrating the toll that both take on these first responders. Tune in to ABC this Thursday, May 1st at 8:00 PM ET.
