The latest episode of the crime drama series has left many fans in shock. The series just killed one of the most loved characters on screen. It was Captain Bobby Nash who was seen for the very last time on the show, a prime character that was portrayed by Peter Krause.
In episode 15 of season 8, Lab Rats, it was seen that Ravi, played by Anirudh Pisharody, had run out of oxygen momentarily before Bobby could be available for the firefighter. Meanwhile, it was Hen, a character portrayed by Aisha Hinds, who could have been in a fatal condition following the injuries she sustained from a laboratory explosion.
On the other hand, it was even shown that Kenneth Choi’s Chimney was ill from the symptoms of a mutated version of CCHF, also known as Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever. However, instead of using the final antidote for himself, Bobby chose to save Chimney.
Meanwhile, Bobby even says that he can't leave the laboratory, asking him to bring in his wife, Athena, played by Angela Bassett. She is shown to request Buck for a medical team. However, Bobby insists on not exposing anyone else to the virus.
With Athena continuing to plead for Bobby’s life, asking him to find a solution, the major character soon collapses.
Talking to Variety, Peter Krause stated, “I’ve heard that many fans are upset by this loss and they have a right to be. It is a loss.”
He called his character’s death a much bolder and more creative choice on a bold show. Explaining Bobby Nash, Krause stated that he was written for a sacrifice and that the scene was for him.
“First responders risk their lives on the job so that others can see another day. His story arc honors them," Peter Krause added.
The actor then even gave his salute to all the brave men and women who are always doing risky jobs out in the world.
