(Warning: This post contains spoilers for Monday’s midseason premiere of the second season of “9-1-1: Lone Star.)

“9-1-1” spinoff “Lone Star” has yet to break into the “Begins” franchise of episodes that its parent series has been churning out for four seasons, but the Austin-set Fox drama came close with Monday’s midseason premiere, “Saving Grace.” The hour served as what we’ll call a “Grace and Judd Begin,” as it flashed back to the first time Grace (Sierra McClain) and Judd (Jim Parrack) met, while in the present day dealing with the aftermath of their horrific car accident.

While fans were waiting to see if Grace — who sustained more injuries in the crash and was out cold in the hospital for the better part of the episode — would pull through as Judd prayed for her survival, we were treated to their adorable backstory.
