Is Ronen Rubinstein leaving 9-1-1: Lone Star? Did TK Strand die tonight?
Entering the episode, it’s abundantly clear that the writers want you to worry to a certain extent. The only silver lining we have, at least for the time being, are so promos that show him in a hospital. That at least indicates that he’s getting a certain measure of care, which we tend to think of as a nice start. Of course, this doesn’t mean that the character is out of the woods. We love TK and, beyond just that, we love TK and Carlos. The last thing we want is for things to get ripped apart at this particular moment in the story.
At least entering the episode, there was no indication that Rubinstein was leaving the show full-time. Instead, we clung to the hope that this is one of those classic TV death fake-outs that we tend to see on a number of different programs across the board. They’ve been around long before the start of the 9-1-1 franchise, and we tend to think they’ll continue to be around after the fact, as well.
Well, here’s the bad news following tonight: We don’t think anything is 100% clear as of yet. We are still hopeful that the character will wake up eventually, but the writers clearly have no problem dragging this out for a little while longer … as if there aren’t enough dramatic situations elsewhere! We do think, though, that the longer they don’t kill this character off, the more likely it is that we’ll end up seeing him be okay down the road.
