The 9-1-1 fandom has been shipping Oliver Stark’s Buck and Ryan Guzman’s Eddie since the moment Eddie was introduced. Dubbed “Buddie” by fans, this slow-burn duo has had everyone clutching their pearls, hoping that their undeniable chemistry would finally translate into something more. Well, the show’s 100th episode—aptly titled Buck, Bothered, and Bewildered—just threw a gallon of gasoline on that fire.

The milestone episode had everything—a cheeky crossover with The Bachelor (a not-so-subtle nod to 9-1-1’s move to ABC), a beautifully written coming-out moment for Buck, and one unexpected but very telling kiss. After watching Eddie grow closer to his new friend Tommy, Buck found himself grappling with jealousy—but not in the way he first assumed. As Buck and Tommy talked about their mutual adoration for Eddie, their tension was almost unbearable, and then boom—Tommy made the first move, planting a sweet, unexpected kiss on Buck. Cue gasps from audiences everywhere.

Even Oliver Stark himself is teasing something big. In an interview with TODAY, he shared,
“I think they’re going to be kind of explored and looked at in a way that is more obvious than has ever been done before on the show. To an extent where I was actually surprised by how much it’s going to be explored.”
If he’s surprised, just imagine what’s in store for us.
