TK & Carlos Had a Huge Moment on Tonight's 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 3 Finale
Editor's note: this article contains spoilers from the season three finale of 9-1-1: Lone Star.
Big news for Tarlos fans! Actually, it's The Biggest News! Our favorite couple is engaged!!! That's right, our boy TK Strand (Ronen Rubinstein) stepped up and proposed to his boyfriend, Carlos Reyes (Rafael L. Silva), on Monday night's season three finale of 9-1-1: Lone Star!
We know it's been a tough three seasons for TK. He's been dumped, he's been in rehab, he's been hospitalized several times, his mother died, and he's nearly died. But the one other constant besides disaster and stress has been Carlos. Now, they'll be together forever.

Just when it seemed like we'd never get an engagement, and after a finale featuring flashbacks to 9/11, a gas explosion, and Judd re-breaking his leg, we finally got to see Carlos and TK back at home in bed, but not until the final ten minutes! Please stop teasing us like this!!!
Then, at 3:18am, TK woke Carlos up.
"What, do you smell smoke? IS THE LIZARD BACK???" Carlos asks.
But no, TK wants to work on his will. When Carlos asks why it can't wait until the morning, TK says, "I don't want to waste another minute. It'll be easy because I'll just leave everything to my husband," he says to a shocked Carlos. "Marry me."
Carlos is hesitant at first, saying "TK, we've had a pretty dramatic week."
"It's not drama. It's not drama, it's love," TK says. "The kind that you can't get away from. And baby, my life has been scarred with loss, and at times it felt inescapable, but that's the risk of love, right? For the first time in my life, the love that I feel is infinitely more powerful than the fear of losing it. And every moment that we're not married is a wasted moment, and baby, we only get so many."

"I sure hope so," TK replies.
"Then yes, a thousand times yes," Carlos says, and the two kiss.
Wow, I'm crying so much!! We're all crying, right??
\u201c"A thousand times yes."\n\nWe KNOW that's right, Carlos. \ud83d\ude2d #911LoneStar\u201d— 9-1-1: Lone Star (@9-1-1: Lone Star) 1652752320
