FANS OF 911 were left wondering whether or not the character Michael Grant will be returning to the show after the latest episode.
Here’s everything we know about the future of Michael on 911.
Is Michael Grant leaving 911?
Season five episode eight of 911 ended with Michael Grant getting engaged to his lover, Dr. David Hale.
The two announced they would be headed to Haiti to help with the aftermath of a hurricane – which is also code word for their characters leaving the show.
However, nothing is official when it comes to departures. There is always the opportunity for the characters to return, seeing as they are still alive in the 911 universe.
Following Michael’s announcement that he would be joining David in Haiti, he said, “I can’t save lives, but I can help rebuild one.”
The episode then featured a montage of scenes starring Michael from the first five seasons.
If Michael is to ever return to the show, it wouldn’t be the first time a character left and came back.
Actress Connie Britton starred on the show as Abby, but left after season one. She did, however, return for the season three finale.
