got the notion

7x02 coda

Hen drives to the firehouse, and changes her mind with every stoplight she hits.

Red light. Maybe this is an overreaction. 

Green light. Bobby and Athena need help. 

Red light. Cruise ships are built to withstand the weather, and the Uno had turned away from the storm. The Coast Guard has to be aware of the storm by now, and they’ll be on high alert for any distress. 

Every rational thought points to everything being fine.

But—the light turns green, Hen hits the gas, and she remembers a sunny afternoon six years ago. Then, too, every rational thought had pointed to everything being fine, until she and Buck had found Bobby passed out cold. 

There’s just one nagging thought at the back of her mind. 

“Hey, Siri,” she says, slowing down at yet another red light. “Call Karen.” 

“What did Maddie say?” Karen asks as soon as she picks up. Her voice is concerned, and Hen loves her for it. Karen, at least, understands.

“Am I overreacting?” Hen asks instead of answering. The question had been building so long it needed to escape. 

“Tell me what Maddie said first,” Karen says. “I can’t answer without all the information.”

“She thinks something happened,” Hen says. “She called the local 911 down in Mexico, apparently they got a bunch of calls from the ship that all dropped.” 

“Sure sounds like something happened,” Karen says. “So, you’re going out there?” She sounds the way she always does when Hen is about to run headfirst into danger, proud and terrified all at once.

“I—” Hen says, her fingers gripping the steering wheel. “I was going to, but I ran into Chief Simpson.” 

“Oh,” Karen says, then, “oh no, he didn’t fire you?”

“No,” Hen says. “Just told me to get back to work. I told him about the ship, but he just said it’s not in our jurisdiction.” 

“Oh,” Karen says again. There’s a humming on the line like she’s about to say something else, but she stays silent and lets Hen gather her thoughts.

“Is he right?” she asks, after another few seconds of silence. “Am I making the wrong call again?”

“What do you mean again?” Karen asks. “Didn’t you just say he told you to go back to work? That means you made right call, doesn’t it?”

“Just because it wasn’t wrong doesn’t mean it was right,” Hen says. “It was—Karen, I honestly don’t know what it was.”

“We don’t need to figure that out right now,” Karen says. “Do you think going after Bobby and Athena is the right call?” 

Hen takes a breath. One second stretches into two, then five, and still, she doesn’t answer.

“Hen,” Karen says. “What does your instinct say?” 

“Something is wrong,” Hen says. “I know it is. And the ocean may not be part of the LAFD’s jurisdiction, but Bobby and Athena are my jurisdiction.” 

“Then go get ‘em,” Karen says. “But, Hen?” 

“Yeah?”

“Come home to me.” Karen’s voice doesn’t shake, but Hen knows that’s only thanks to years and years of practice.

“I will,” Hen says. “I promise.” 

By the time she hits the red light around the corner from the firehouse, Hen is certain that she’s made the right decision. She might have forgotten it for a moment, but she trusts her instincts. 

The only uncertainty remaining is how she’s going to convince the rest of the team to accompany her, with nothing but a map of ships off the California coast and a bad gut feeling to go off.

But when she walks into the app bay, Chimney, Eddie, and Buck are lined up and waiting for her.

“Get changed and let’s go,” Eddie says. “Chopper’s on the way.”

Hen blinks. “How did you—”

“Maddie called,” Chimney says, brandishing his phone. “So I called Tommy, called in a favour.”

“Don’t you still owe him from last time?” Buck asks, and Chimney frowns.

“Well techincally—”

“We can settle it on the way,” Hen says, before the two of them can really start bickering, but her heart feels like it grows a size with every half-jogged step towards the locker room.

Bobby and Athena are their jurisdiction, and they’re on their way.

Not the way Bobby finally found the captain and white collar boyfriend though and upon finding out that Athena has gone to safe the ship with his "of course she has" promptly and dramatically turns around and stalks off as if he suddenly has a beacon on her location instead of having no idea whatsoever where to find her without asking the folks he just turned his back to.

Like. Duuuuuuuuuude. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

911 (with mum) 7x01 Abandon Ships & 7x02 Rock the Boat

Athena and Bobby set off on their honeymoon cruise, but when duty calls, their vacation is put on hold. Meanwhile, Hen questions her instincts in a life-taking call and grows concerned about Athena and Bobby's whereabouts.

Didn't realize this was a 3-parter otherwise would've watched 2&3 together instead but hey ho, all aboard. It would have been a bold move to kill 2 beloved lead characters in a season, network changing, opener. I really thought for a sec they were gonna do it.

Amphibia 1x11 Grubhog Day / Hop Pop and Lock

Sprig has to decide whether to uphold his responsibilities or have fun at the carnival. / To impress Sylvia Sundew, Hop Pop asks Anne to teach him to dance.

Grubhog will return for vengeance, but spare Anne and Sprig because they looked after it and gave it new thrilling experiences. And Hop Pop's original moves sure were something! It's cute he found someone to dance with who is equally freaky.

Heartbreak High 2x06 Just Kid $h*t

A video gains momentum for Amerie's school captain campaign. Darren grows worried when Ca$h doesn't show up to their housewarming party.

Amerie's goodbye peck on the lips and ily to Harper had more romantic energy than whatever is supposed to be happening with Rowan. And I'm always uncomfortable when they graphically show teen characters having sex. Even with actors in their 20's it still feels exploitative. The farting interlude was hilariously awkward though.
