What to Expect from 9-1-1: Nashville Season 1 Episode 2: Hell and High Water

9-1-1: Nashville, Previews

Station 113 faces another high-risk save after the tornado dissipates on 9-1-1: Nashville Season 1 Episode 2, “Hell and High Water.”

After an action-packed premiere, the thrills continue with the team’s next mission being a rescue at a water tower.

Upping the ante, Cammie must guide a young teenager over the phone through delivering her mother’s baby after they are caught in the path of the storm, and she goes into labor.

As the episode’s description below implies, we’ll also finally get to learn more about Ryan’s marriage.

We haven’t met his partner yet, but we already know that the two are experiencing a strain in their relationship after his conversations in the premiere. Hopefully, the reasoning behind that tension will be unveiled.

No matter what, though, it’ll be fun to spend more time peeling back the layers of these characters.
