9-1-1 mastermind Tim Minear promised an unconventional crossover on 9-1-1: Lone Star this season, and we’re lastly getting it on Tuesday (Fox, 8/7c).
The episode, appropriately titled “Double Hassle,” finds Julian Works embodying twin roles — Mateo, his common Lone Star character, and Mateo’s Los Angeles-based cousin Marvin, whom viewers beforehand met in a 2018 episode of 9-1-1.
Works debuted on Lone Star in 2020, but it surely wasn’t till the present’s large crossover with 9-1-1 in 2021 that the writers correctly determined to type a connection between his characters. Mateo had a short line in that episode about having a cousin who was imprisoned in LA.
TVLine has an unique sneak peek of the episode, which begins with Mateo introducing his “an identical cousin” to his baffled coworkers, all of whom agree that such a factor doesn’t exist.
However nobody is laughing when Mateo excuses himself to search out out why Marvin is admittedly calling his estranged “twin.” (Spoiler alert: It’s not excellent news.)
“Now we have some nichey crossover issues arising Minear advised TVLine earlier this season. “When you keep in mind final yr, we did that factor with Athena in LA serving to Carlos and Grace shut out a case. I’m not saying we’re doing that once more, however there may be some cross-pollination that won’t have occurred to you. It’s not the obvious means right into a crossover, however there may be cross-pollination.”
