The tight end was introduced as Ed Lachlan – a recovering drug addict working as a nurse, who features as a potential love interest for lead Niecy Nash-Betts’ character, Detective Lois Tryon.

Ed first meets Lois at the hospital where her husband was in a coma. After finding her sitting on a bench and smoking a cigarette, Ed began sweet-talking the detective before she pulled out a flask and started drinking. He warned her not to get in her car but she proceeded to drive after drinking.

In the next scene, Lois crashes her car into a pole and wakes up in the hospital with Ed as her nurse. She convinces him to sneak out of the hospital against her doctor’s orders, and he obliges.
