Treadmill said to me running in place, you're stuck, you can't go back and you can't move on.
If Eddie was running outside, I'd say, ok he's either running towards something or away from something or both.
But this is static, one place, every day, only thing that changes are the shadows on his face and the spark dying out in his eyes.
The white shirt, as amazing as he looks in it, and obviously looking better than usual when a certain blonde visits, also said giving up to me, he's waving a white flag of sorts, he already looks worn down, he's accepted his fate.
He watched his teammates (read Buck) in danger on TV, helped when he realized that they may not know what to look for, and then probably watched that last minute jump Buck took after falling back on the truck bed before the truck exploded.
Then been reamed out by Josh (not my Josh, I don't know who that guy was) for saving the 118 and 147 and the family in the truck.
He didn't explain himself, simply apologized and promised it wouldn't happen again (giving up - the old Eddie would have pushed back).
But as soon as Christopher gave his blessing, Eddie was feeling like there might be a way out from that treadmill run he was stuck on.
Bobby's decision notwithstanding, Eddie was ready to give up on everything for Christopher, no matter how much he himself was slowly fading away from existence.
