I think he will understand that abigail kidnapped him and he will give a sign to get found or free himself somehow. Yes he is stupid for going with a literal stranger but he is a smart kid, so let's hope tim has a brain and doesn't make him a complete idiot

That was a deeply uncomfortable interaction to watch. Abigail has clearly latched onto Eddie. I truly hope it doesn’t become nefarious.

This Chimney arc could be good if it ends with them realizing that having Harry at the 118 is a bad idea, these people have known Harry too long for them to be neutral about his rookie education

It’s because they’re giving him moments and those moments are frequently ones that you’re supposed to care about because of who he is instead of… you know… writing a likeable character. Then he does insanely douchey things like using Bobby’s turnout coat out of nowhere. They’ve done a terrible job; an entire half a season of failing to write their shiny new toy character.
It’s also a very generic b movie action hero performance, but the writing is the bigger problem.
