Spoiler alert! This story comprises main spoilers for 9-1-1: Lone Star’s Season 4 episode “Highway Kill,” which aired March 21. Proceed with warning when you’re not caught up!
9-1-1: Lone Star positive took us on a experience within the newest episode, “Highway Kill,” as Marjan was pitted towards Grant, the abuser she’d helped vlogger Kiley escape from within the earlier episode. Our hero from the 126 teamed up with Mouse, a 10-year-old who was supposedly in one other automobile concerned within the wreck that occurred when Grant ran Marjan’s rental automobile off the street. Mouse gave a badly injured Marjan the power to maintain combating, as they engaged in a sport of cat and mouse with Grant that every one led as much as a wild plot twist that exposed Mouse was a figment of Marjan’s creativeness.
Not solely was Mouse (Samsara Leela Yett) not actual, she was truly a manifestation of 10-year-old Marjan, who we discovered had been the one concerned in a deadly automobile accident that killed her pal and his dad and mom. Natacha Karam spoke to TV Line about that devastating reveal, and the way she reacted when she first discovered concerning the huge episode. The actress stated:
Once I learn the script the primary time, I didn’t know. I used to be simply sort of like, ‘The place did this child seem from? I don’t perceive.’ Then I obtained to the tip and was like, ‘Oh!’ I positively had to return and browse it once more, now figuring out that we’ve truly discovered rather a lot about Marjan, as a result of every little thing that comes out of Mouse’s mouth is definitely details about Marjan.
“Highway Kill” was sort of Marjan’s origin story; we simply didn’t notice it till the tip. All of the issues we discovered about Mouse — like how she didn’t wish to rejoice her personal victories as a result of she didn’t wish to harm others’ emotions or how her dad and mom labored rather a lot — have been truly issues the firefighter had handled as a child. Most significantly, it was seemingly that wreck and the loss of life of her pal that set her on the path to turning into a firefighter. Natacha Karam continued:
Residing via one thing like that is likely one of the causes for her profound religion. Her mother says to her on the finish, ’When Allah is with you, you’re by no means alone.’ We actually discovered much more about why Marjan is the lady that she is. And also you’re proper, this is likely one of the incidents that set her on the trail to being like, ‘I couldn’t assist as soon as, however I can assist now.’ I like how a lot little stuff they sprinkled in there.
So after an eventful few weeks, Marjan is headed again to the 126, although after the occasions of “Highway Kill,” it seems to be just like the firefighter can be sidelined for a short time as she overcomes her accidents. A minimum of Paul (Brian Michael Smith) can have his buddy again, as he continues to navigate a brand new relationship.
