What led to Marjan and Joe getting married in 9-1-1: Lone Star season 5 episode 10?
In 9-1-1: Lone Star season 5 episode 10, Marjan and Joe's spontaneous wedding was the result of a series of events, starting with the arrival of Marjan's parents. They initially disapproved of her relationship with Joe and did not like Marjan’s plans to live in an apartment and continue her firefighting career after marriage.
They wanted her to have a more traditional life, including a house and yard for future children rather than an apartment. Their reactions took a toll on the couple's relationship, and Marjan considered trying to appease them next year.
Joe was not ready to give up without a fight, and he made Marjan question her identity, using a comparison between the fearless 'Firefox' and the submissive 'Mouse'. Marjan started to reflect on who she truly was, and a case at work further opened her eyes. She saw a young girl risk everything for her family, and she realized that she needed to be true to herself and set boundaries with her parents.
Marjan confronted her parents again, asserting that she loves Joe, and is ready to commit to him forever. Her confidence reassured them, and they finally gave their blessing to the couple. Marjan and Joe did not want to wait any longer and decided to marry before her parents left. They tied the knot in a spontaneous, joyful ceremony.
Speaking to TVLine on January 20, Natacha Karam, the actor playing Marjan, talked about this development in the storyline. She said:
“Come on, this is Lone Star. We always have to be larger than life. Usually it’s with big, scary things, but sometimes it’s with really lovely things like this.”
How did Owen help Judd address his struggles with alcoholism?
9-1-1: Lone Star season 5 episode 10 addressed Judd's struggles with alcoholism, a storyline that has been prominent since his wife Grace's departure from the show. Owen played a critical role in helping Judd, by confronting him and encouraging him to seek help.
After discovering beer bottles and noticing signs of Judd’s drinking, Owen questioned him. Judd told him that he joined a faith-based support group and achieved 28 days of sobriety, but he was dishonest about his progress.
His emotional issues stemmed from loneliness after Grace left for missionary work, leaving him to care for their children alone. His problems intensified when his daughter moved in with her grandparents, leaving him in an empty house. His drinking worsened, he injured himself while intoxicated, and he stopped believing in God since he thought he could not get a positive sign from God.
Owen attended one of Judd’s meetings to support him and encouraged him to be honest about his relapse. He offered a practical and emotional solution by inviting Judd to move in with him, ensuring he wouldn’t face his struggles alone.
Towards the end of the episode, while attending Marjan and Joe's wedding, Judd gets a call from Grace, which he takes as a sign from God in his healing journey. Fans can expect to see Judd reclaim his life and reach a happy ending by the end of the series.
Stay tuned for more updates on 9-1-1: Lone Star season 5.
