Brand new stills from 9-1-1 Season 8 Episode 15, which premieres on April 17, 2025, tease a thrilling continuation of the Contagion storyline from Episode 14. The second part of this two-episode arc features Kenneth Choi’s Chimney running out of time after a lethal virus threatens to take his life. The stills feature Officer Athena Grant (Angela Bassett) and Buck (Oliver Stark) desperately trying to find a solution while holding it together for their team.
According to the official logline of the upcoming episode, Athena and Buck are doing all they can to rescue the rest of the 118 after the deadly fire in the bio lab. Several stills feature Chimney looking weak and struggling for breath as he waits for help. The pictures also show Peter Krause’s Bobby Nash and Anirudh Pisharoy’s Ravi Panikkar taking lead in the bio lab while the rest of their teammates are affected by the virus. Karen Wilson (Tracy Thoms) also takes on a pivotal role in the episode as she helps Athena and Buck come up with a plan to save Chimey and the others before it’s too late.
The trailer for the upcoming episode features Chimney telling the others that he is “running out of time,” as someone on the outside declares that his organs are failing. The clip also shows Athena scrambling to find an antidote that can help Chimney while Buck is concerned about putting others at risk to save him. “Lab Rats” picks up directly after Episode 14, which ended on a cliffhanger as Chimney called home and told his wife that he wasn’t going to be home for dinner.
