‘9-1-1: Lone Star’: What Would’ve Happened for Judd & Grace If Sierra McClain Hadn’t Left

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 Episode 9 “Fall From Grace.”]
How has Judd (Jim Parrack) been doing without Grace (Sierra McClain, who did not return for the final season) on 9-1-1: Lone Star? In two words: not well.
As Owen (Rob Lowe) discovers after bringing him home after a night out, Judd has been drinking—there are bottles everywhere. Judd’s been hungover, not sick, at work, but he swears he’s never been drunk on the job. It started after Grace left, Judd admits, because he lost his “center.” He can stop cold turkey, he promises, it’s just a rough patch. It’s been five months, Owen argues. Judd protests that he’s acknowledging the problem. But now Owen’s decided not to take a job offer in New York and insists on taking Judd to a meeting.
