9-1-1 ’s fallen captain is still an open wound for many, but Angela Bassett’s Athena Grant won’t necessarily reflect that in her next character arc. Despite Athena and Peter Krause’s Bobby Nash leading the first-responder drama since its 2018 premiere, Bobby’s death in 9-1-1 season 8 has changed everything, leaving Athena a widow. Without her scene partner, Athena’s future is unclear.
Nonetheless, 9-1-1 season 9 will bring change for Athena , as the season 8 finale implied. In the closing moments of “Seismic Shifts” ( 9-1-1 season 8, episode 18), Athena sold the house she built with Bobby, indicating a fresh start for the upcoming season. Regardless, many expected the firefighter procedural to follow Athena’s journey with grief for a little while longer.
