Many Characters' Stories Need Closure
Atthe end of9-1-1: Lone Starseason 5, episode 10,Judd struggled with his sobriety.However, things started looking up for him when Grace finally called him, inspiring him to pour his alcohol down the drain. Judd’s story isn’t over, though, and he still has a lot of work to do to overcome the demons that arose following Grace’s exit. Consequently, viewers will see Judd’s recovery in the show’s final two episodes. Jim Parrack, who plays Judd, teased his character’s ending while speaking toTV Insider. The actor said:
“Judd’s in a good spot, having come through that crisis and that low point and having allowed other people to lead him and take care of him, to be a leader in that situation and step up and be there for the people he loves.”
Unfortunately, Station 126 seemingly has bigger things to worry about in9-1-1: Lone Star’s last two episodes. As seen in the season 5 trailer,an asteroid is heading for Austin, Texas,meaning the show might conclude with the end of the world. Of course, that’s highly improbable, and the characters will likely find a way to stop the asteroid. However, the threat pumps high stakes into the finale, prompting the first responders to make the best of what could be their final minutes.

The good news is that, based on Parrack and Natacha Karam’s (who plays Marjan Marwani) discussion withTV Insider,the procedural drama will end on a heartwarming, bittersweet note(suggesting the asteroid doesn’t kill them all). Both9-1-1: Lone Starcast membersdescribed group scenes that significantly impacted them and will affect the audience. Karam explained:
“There’s a lot of tears. Rewatching it doing ADR, there were a lot of tears for me again. I thought it played so beautifully and captured so much of the five seasons, and we shot it on our last night working together before we were wrapped. So that was pretty intense.”
