Tommy has to leave the 126 in 911: Lone Star season 5

As a gamer who’s spent countless hours playing “Firefighter: New York” and “Rescue Squad Simulator,” I have to say, the latest twist in 911: Lone Star is as gripping as any mission I’ve ever faced in-game. Tommy’s decision to step down due to her health struggles resonates deeply with me, not because I’ve personally battled cancer, but because I’ve certainly “died” more times than I can count while saving virtual lives.


In the fifth season of “911: Lone Star,” during episode 7, Tommy found himself facing a significant dilemma. Although it was clear that he intended to confide in someone about his departure from the 126, the identity of this person remained a mystery, as well as the reason behind his decision.

After being diagnosed with breast cancer, Tommy realized that she couldn’t abandon her daughters. Yet, she also didn’t wish to magnify the situation unnecessarily. She didn’t want cancer to consume her life, and soon after her first surgery, she returned to work to gain more knowledge about this specific cancer.

Nancy found the concept unappealing, yet she chose to proceed with it. Frankly, challenging one’s captain to return home isn’t simple. In the final part of the episode, however, Tommy discovered her error.

The episode concluded with Tommy fainting before his daughters. Despite the tension, they stayed composed and ensured she received immediate medical care, thus preventing her death from the pulmonary blood clot. This, in turn, necessitated Tommy revealing the truth to Judd and his daughters, which could potentially spread news throughout the 126.

When Nancy visited Tommy, Tommy disclosed that she might have to step down from the 126. This is probably just a medical leave, which seems more plausible than it did in the advertisement. Given her circumstances, she requires health insurance. However, Tommy felt compelled to ensure there was a reliable replacement captain in place.

Tommy prefers Nancy to assume the role of captain for the 124, as she believes Nancy is well-prepared. Not surprisingly, Nancy is willing to rise to the occasion, despite her apprehension. It’s refreshing to see her being truthful about her fears, and it’s commendable that Tommy didn’t sugarcoat things either. Their bond is built on honesty, and they both seem to embrace this principle sincerely.

As a gamer, one aspect of this narrative I truly appreciate is the portrayal of women uplifting each other. It’s heartening to witness such solidarity, and it’s great to see more TV shows embracing this dynamic. Even Gina Torres recently shared her thoughts on this with TVLine.

t’s important to see women supporting other women. It doesn’t have to be competitive. In fact, more often than not, it’s not competitive. We understand that the way to get things done is to do them together.

911: Lone Star airs Mondays at 8/7c on FOX. Catch up the following day on Hulu.
