When Tommy dumped Buck in “Confessions,” he said he was Buck’s first (boyfriend) but that he wouldn’t be his last. It was obvious for viewers who picked up the signs that he was referring to Eddie, but now, it has officially been confirmed. Tommy has always picked up on Buck’s interest in Eddie, and – based on Tommy’s scoff when Buck says that Eddie is straight – Eddie’s interest in Buck as well. Even after Buck and Tommy started dating, the three of them spent a lot of time together, as if Buck were just adding Tommy to his existing dynamic with Eddie. Additionally, when Tommy gives Buck tickets for their anniversary, he casually says that Buck could take Eddie instead. When Buck actually considered this, though, Tommy immediately backpedaled.
It’s unclear at this point whether Eddie has considered the possibility before that he might have feelings for Buck, or whether he will be as blindsided by his own feelings as Buck was by his. For Buck, though, it seems as though he hasn’t yet let himself consider the possibility. Both times that it comes up in this episode, with Tommy and later with Maddie, Buck’s default is to say that Eddie is straight. He hasn’t been able to think about what his own feelings mean because he doesn’t believe that they can go anywhere. Now that Tommy has directly addressed it, though, Buck will only be able to ignore his feelings for so long.
