The next time someone calls for help on 9-1-1: Lone Star, they’ll hear a surprising (yet familiar) voice on the other end of the phone.
A new promo for the Fox procedural’s upcoming fifth (and possibly final) season includes footage of Judd’s son Wyatt working as a new dispatcher, a job held by Judd’s wife Grace since the series premiered in 2020. But with Sierra McClain not returning for Season 5, the key position has been left vacant.

Wyatt, played by Jackson Pace, was previously on track to join his estranged father in the field, but a near-fatal accident sidelined his firefighting aspirations. The penultimate episode of Season 4 saw Wyatt undergo spinal surgery after a biking accident resulted in brain swelling and multiple broken vertebrae.
And that’s not the only major career change fans can expect in Season 5. As previously revealed, Judd is resigning (at least temporarily) from the 126, leaving Paul and Marjan to compete for the position of captain. Behind-the-scenes photos posted by the cast and crew also suggest that Carlos will follow in his late father’s footsteps by becoming a Texas Ranger.
