Station 19 season 3 episode 9 is set to arriver next week on ABC, with the title "Poor Wandering One." This episode will explore the past of one of the characters, giving viewers the chance to learn more about him. Captain Robert Sullivan's past will be one of the stories for next week's episode, and he'll be reflecting on his life before.
In Station 19 season 3 episode 9, an Army veteran threatens to blow up a pawn shop. The situation leads to Sullivan reflecting on his time as a Marine so he could deescalate the situation. The episode will see the character revisiting his traumatic past to save a life. He was forced to think about what he's been through before so he could use his experiences in a particular situation.
Right now, there are only a few things we know about Sullivan: his addition, his leadership skills, as well as his relationship with Andy. He is relatively new to the series, who first join the group in season 2. So, it's interesting to learn more about this character and what his life was like in the past. The episode will highlight his time in the Marines, which will be useful in a violent situation.
The previous episode also featured Sullivan's story, though it didn't explore his life in the past. In episode 8, Dr. Amelia Shepherd tried to help him with his condition, particularly his pill addiction. The doctor gave Sullivan some tough love, which was what he needed to cope with the situation. Although it's hard for him, he also recognized that he has to deal with it.
As for what else is coming in Station 19 season 3 episode 9, Dean and Vic will try to reason with a man suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Pruitt, on the other hand, will take a stand to honor the fallen firefighters. It only makes sense Pruitt wants to move into this direction, given that he's currently grappling with his own mortality and the aftercare the firefighters in Seattle are receiving.
Pruitt working to help and recognize the fallen heroes might give may for future firefighters. His action is another testament to what kind of person he is, as well as the things he's fighting for. Meanwhile, some of the guest stars in the episode include Alex Benjamin Frederick, Stefania Spampinato as Dr. Carina Deluca, Marie-Françoise Theodore as Millie, and Pat Healy as Chief Dixon.
Station 19 season 3 episode 9 airs on Thursday night, Mar. 19, on ABC.
