“Owen’s Mysterious Whisper: What Secret Did He Share With Marjan on 9-1-1: Lone Star?”
The three-part first episode of the final season of 9-1-1: Lone Star ended with a game-changing announcement: Paul had been promoted to lieutenant! But what Owen didn’t announce is still keeping fans talking a week later. Namely, what did he whisper to Marjan after her big speech?
The good news is we have the answer to that question. The bad news is you’re going to absolutely hate it. Ready? Here we go.
“They didn’t write that in the script,” Brian Michael Smith (aka Paul) told TVLine of the silent exchange between Owen and Marjan, explaining that there’s no way to know what was said. “I think it’s a really cool thing, because it’s just between the two of them. The audience can fill in whatever they want.”
When asked about his own theory about what Owen might have said, Smith speculated: “Marjan is very similar to Captain Strand in the way they’re both willing to endure. Because they’re so similar, whatever he says probably fits in with, like, ‘I see you and I recognize you.’ And I like that.”
Given how supportive the members of Team 126 are of each other, it’s possible that Owen was simply giving Marjan some well-deserved encouragement. Technically, though, neither theory is wrong, and we’ve seen a number of ideas on social media—including one that Owen told Marjan she was his first choice out of loyalty. We’re not buying it, though.
