As the show begins, it gives you a handful of characters, namely Athena, Henrietta, Bobby, Buck, Chimney, and 9-1-1 operators Abby, to give a clear representation of the lives the emergency responders live. Set in the streets of Los Angeles, the characters represent different paramedics, cops, and firefighter staff. Briefing you a bit about the show, let’s get into the details of the characters.
Athena
Athena is dealing with a relationship crisis where her husband has come out as homosexual and has found himself a young boyfriend. She has to take care of her daughter, who is being bullied at school to such an extent that the situation has dragged her on the verge of suicide.
Henrietta
Henrietta is someone who’s going through an emotional dilemma that is directly connected to her relationship. Her ex-con girlfriend has returned back into her life, trying to mend things up. It’s a difficult situation for her to endure, and with her ex-girlfriend’s return, she has brought back a lot of drama.
Bobby
Bobby is a former alcoholic who wants to improve himself and be a better person in comparison to the kind of man he was in the past. He aims at saving lives so he can forgive himself for whatever he has done that pushed his life towards destruction. Long ago, he made a deal to save people and be a better person, and he’s still holding onto it.
Buck and Abby
Both of these characters are interrelated. Buck has been a former playboy who made Abby let loose on her serious life schedule and enjoy it a little more. He craves love and feels Abby is the only person he could ever be loved by. But Abby is emotionally in a totally different phase. Her mother is suffering from a degenerative disease, and Abby seems to feel lost amidst the misery that life has laid upon her mother. So will Abby be serious about Buck? Well, that’s upon you to wonder and witness it onscreen.
