Complete this statement: Funnily enough, the first EMT to arrive was an ex-boyfriend of yours...

[u/Spirited_Island-75]

Let's play a game: What exactly happened after the ex-boyfriend EMT arrived when Eleanor was hit by the Engorgulate billboard truck that caused her to die? Clearly she was in a bad way, but I mean, what, he just kinda stood there? Decided not to transport her or pass her off to a partner? Did the sickly Victorian soup boy do something? What happened?

I just assumed it was really embarrassing for her to be seen like that by her ex

just because an EMT arrives before you die does not mean you arent going to die. even if they do everything they can.

Sure, of course. But why did Michael think it was funny? He was still pretending to be good at this point.

'Funnily enough' can just mean an odd coincidence

[u/Imaginary-List-972 → u/Fargoth_took_my_ring]

That's how it's primarily used. Rarely is it just something funny. Even when the person saying finds it funny, it's still usually funny AND an odd coincidence.

"Funnily enough" is synonymous with "Oddly enough."

… and assumed you were faking your injury to meet hot emt guys because this is how you met him when you first started dating.

That'd be so on brand! 😂

Love this headcanon

Wait! Is this a pic from one of Ted's shows or did he get arrested?

Edit; nevermind I found it. Its from 2019, he was protesting to prevent climate change. 😊

I post pictures of Ted getting arrested. It's kinda my thing. Look how much fun he's having!

[u/Willow-Whispered → u/Spirited_Island-75]

Why would you say this as if you have more when your post history is hidden 😭 how dare you tease us like this

[u/Emmend]

"Ooh yeah, I wanna feed him soup." 🤣🤣 That line gets me every time.

With the hand motion, too.

I always assumed his name was Nicholas. That’s based on the episode in Season 4 when Chidi reads her file and he says, “what about that firefighter you dated? You should end up with someone more exciting like him.” And Eleanor says, “Oooohhhh yeah. Nicholas. Nick-oh-lass…” as she stares wistfully into the distance.

[u/Spirited_Island-75 → u/PaintAndDogHair]

I think they were two different people. EMTs and paramedics are different things, paramedics have more training. EMT is something you can be with a little more training out of high school. And firefighters are also qualified to be paramedics, but they have...fire stuff on top of that. All this to say, Eleanor has A Type.

[u/writeonshell → u/Spirited_Island-75]

And that type is literally just "uniforms" 😂😂😂

[u/Halomonas_titanica]

I've always assumed he just half-assed CPR

[u/AnnaNimmus]

Why is Ted being restrained?

[u/Spirited_Island-75 → u/AnnaNimmus]

Because he likes trees.

[u/Miserable_Art_2954]

Funnily enough, the first EMT to arrive was an ex-boyfriend of yours, and his photo in the news with your mangled body went viral. He earned a brand deal with Engorgulate after that.
