You could say that 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 1 Episode 5 was an ode to male virility, fragility, and at times toxic masculinity as the hour explored manhood in various ways.

9-1-1: Lone Star's Brian Michael Smith Salutes the Show's Honest Look at Transgender Dating Struggles

While sparks flew between Owen and his new lady friend on Monday’s 9-1-1: Lone Star, not everyone in firehouse 126 was quite so lucky in love. If you’ve seen the episode, you know we’re referring to Paul, whose first date with a woman since moving to Austin ended with a handshake… and an apology.
