Summary
"I just...don't know what I want to say about the real wish. I came up with one for work yesterday."
Chimney rolls his eyes and pulls out his phone.
"Well, you've got about five seconds to figure it out. I want to post this ASAP. Chief Simpson has been asking about it."
Buck's cheeks pink, and then suddenly the phone is trained on him.
"Go," Chim barks.
And Buck swallows.
"I'm uh...I'm Buck, and for Christmas this year I want everyone to make sure their turkeys come out at an internal cooking temperature of 165 degrees or higher, so no one gets sent to the hospital with food poisoning. And...for Santa to...leave my true love under the Christmas tree on Christmas morning."

The 118 - and Buck, specifically - go viral on TikTok, and the whole of Los Angeles wants to set Buck up with his true love.

"Was this...recent?"
"Um...sort of? Within the last six months. W-why?"
Taylor stares blankly into the distance for a moment, before her face does this thing that Buck knows can only mean she is angry or fueled by righteous fury.
"He's still on Tinder," she declares, point blank, and pulls her phone out of her pocket. She flicks through a couple things, and then she's turning it to Buck.
OR - Buck encounters Taylor Kelly in the wild one night, and she's surprised to hear he's dating Eddie, since she saw him on Tinder last night. They concoct a plan to catch him in the act.

Summary
"Why don't you come around anymore?
"You never...you don't come to movie nights. You don't come to dinner. I can't...I can't even remember the last time you came out with us and Tia Pepa. Where have you been?"
"You don't...you don't invite me out anymore," Buck finally explains with a shrug. Nonchalant. And Eddie wants to tackle him to the ground. "If you invited me, I would try to come."
And Eddie is seething.
"Try to come?"
+Buck starts to pull away from Eddie after the Ouija incident, and Eddie thinks he's being replaced by Ravi. This leads to a very honest conversation about their feelings. 9x05 coda.

"So...Bobby died?"
"Yeah," Hen shrugs, "but he's back."
Something warm grows in Buck's heart. He needs to see him before he goes.
"You and Karen are.."
"Fine."
"Maddie and Chim got divorced..."
"Last year."
"And she and Eddie..."
"Got together almost immediately after. It was out of nowhere honestly. You had a big spiral about it, which led to you...well, you almost ruined the wedding."

Or Buck is in a coma (again), and his dream uncovers his deepest fears.

Summary
"Was it the time I made a joke about you being a furry after you had sex with Rampage the ram from the LA Rams after that call where we had to put out a fire on the field during half time?"
Buck groans and shakes his head, "No."
Chimney uses a ballpoint pen to cross that off the list.
This goes on the entire shift, until they're pulling back into the bay and hopping out of the truck. Buck rips the list out of his hand, looking it over incredulously.
"Were these seriously all in the last six months?" he complains, reading through them with a squint.
Chim shrugs, coming up next to him, a lollipop sticking out of the side of his mouth.
"There's honestly probably more, but they're all I could think of," he explains.
"None of these are the reason I'm upset," he states and walks away.
+
OR Chim says something in front of the whole squad that Bobby would have never said, and Buck is pissed at his sister and her husband for airing his secrets.

Summary
“If Bobby found out about what?” Chim flinched, turning slowly in his seat to glance back at Bobby who was looking down at him with a concerned frown.
“Hey Cap!” Crips Chim, voice unnaturally high.
“Howard.” Bobby growled in warning.
“Eddie’s girlfriend hates Buck!” Chim folds like a wet towel under Bobby’s glare
