Station 19 (2018) s06e06 Episode Script

1
Vic, it's so early.
Hey, your wife's not
answering. Is she there?
Well, of course she's there. Can you, uh
Can I talk to her? Can
you put me on speaker?
- What?
- Whoo! It's fire camp today!
- You're yelling.
- Just wanted to make
sure you're ready to run
the Axe drill and the fire box setup
- Yes, Vic.
- And the turnout relay.
- I will see you later.
- Because I really feel like you're gonna be
the best person to do that after
May
Where are you going?
For a run.
I took a pregnancy test the other day.
- What?
- I'm sorry.
I had to know.
- And you didn't think I did?
- I'm telling you now.
I'm not pregnant.
Wow.
I can't believe you took a
pregnancy test without me.
This is the part you're reacting to?
- I'm reacting to all of it.
- No, you're not.
You're reacting to the
part that applies to you.
You're reacting to the part
that you can be offended by.
I am not pregnant, Maya.
Did you hear that part?
- I did.
- And And "H-How are you, Carina?
H-How are you feeling?
Do you need anything?
Is there anything that I can do for you?
What should we do next?"
All these are normal things
that you can say to your wife right now.
No, the normal thing is
doing a test together.
Oh, my God.
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
I'm s
Listen, I'm just in shock, okay?
You seemed so O-Okay, I thought
I thought it worked, okay?
You seemed so pregnant.
- How did I "seem so pregnant"?
- I don't know.
Mood swings and and
snacking and symptoms.
Symptoms of being pregnant.
Those are symptoms of
being a human being, Maya.
Okay, you know what? I'm going to work.
Bailey's Reproductive Care
Clinic is opening today,
and I can actually
make a difference there.
- I gotta go.
- No, baby.
I got
- fire camp with Hughes.
- Mm-hmm.
And I gotta get to 19
early to get eyes
- Mm-hmm.
- On some Beckett stuff.
Ugh.
Yeah, there have been some concerns.
- What's your read on him?
- Hm?
Is he drinking again?
- Not drinking, I don't think.
- Hmm.
But he isn't much of a leader.
Wait, how are you getting to
work? We drove here together.
You're going to 19 anyway,
I can just ride with you.
I'll jump out a few
blocks from the station.
You're not even joking.
You know, if we weren't
this covert couple,
think about the carpooling we could do.
Think about how this affair is
contributing to climate change.
You're pushing again.
- Again?
- Mm-hmm.
- Look at where we are.
- Yeah, thanks to credit card points.
We're in a hotel in the city.
Where no one can know
that we're a couple
because you wanted more.
And now you want to ride
to work together, too?
Sully, it's too much.
Then we won't do it.
It's just breakfast.
I like having meals with you, okay?
So if in-room dining is the only way
- You got breakfast?
- Mm-hmm.
French toast.
- Ooh.
- Bacon.
Yeah?
Hey, you know I have to leave at 12:00
for the union thing, right?
Uh, yeah, I do.
From when you reminded me last night
and then again this morning
when I was in the shower
and then again when I was driving here.
You genuinely believe I'm a person
who remembers absolutely nothing?
Left on the kitchen counter,
says "Girls Fire Camp".
I don't Mm.
Really sucks that you're
abandoning me today.
Technically, you abandoned me,
because you were supposed to
go to this union thing with me.
Okay, well, you know what? That
was before Eli was running the show.
And it's gonna be so much
better with him, right?
It's gonna be way less fun,
but it's gonna be better.
It will be less fun,
but it'll be better.
Lightning storm in
the forecast and now this?
Thanks a lot, Trav.
Lightning storms? Today?
Travis won't stop gushing about Eli.
Prompted by me, sure, but it's like,
you know, read the room, you know?
- I mean, I was doing the job
- Yeah.
And now someone better is doing it,
and that's great, but, I mean,
maybe I'm not the best person
to talk about the new guy with.
No, I'm not either. I-I was
hate-Googling him last night.
Okay, I mean, I don't hate him.
But do we I don't
know, do we hate him?
I-I hate the type.
Like, he's too smart, too charming,
too involved in every dogooder charity.
Like, what's his deal anyway?
Well, I don't know. It kinda
sounds like his deal is, like,
exactly what he's doing, right?
I mean, honestly, hearing that bio
- makes me feel a little bit better.
- The guy hasn't done anything
for the campaign yet.
Yeah, he will.
He will, 'cause this is
just truly what he does.
I guess.
- Eli. Eli.
- Please, just hear me out, all right?
I-If someone was trying
to kill you, yeah?
And in protecting
yourself, you killed him
That is just basic self-defense.
Even in court, self-defense, not guilty.
Comparing this to
involuntary manslaughter
is really not helping
your argument here.
Dixon leaked a story
that makes you look like
you have rage issues.
We have something about him
that could change the narrative.
Leaking the Dixon Crisis
One call could jeopardize
the jobs of the people on the call
and threaten the existence
of Crisis One itself.
Eli, I'm serious!
Well, how are you
planning to beat him, then?
Are we in this, or are we not?
Hey, Ben.
Please meet Eli Stern,
my new campaign manager.
The man who's gonna make my life
a whole lot easier?
Oh, what I wouldn't
give for one of those.
I'm in a non-fight
with my wife right now.
She She started this
new reproductive clinic,
and she wants me to
do anesthesiology there
when she knows that I work here.
Oh, a-and get this, get this
She goes
"But aren't you just on desk duty?"
This sounds like a regular fight.
I am on desk duty most
days for our family,
not because I like it,
not because I like it.
You know, I can't just
I can't just drop everything
because of what she got herself
into over there, right? Right?
- Oh, yeah, no, yeah, totally.
- Yeah, yeah, of course.
You know, and today, I'm
not even on desk duty.
Today I'm a firefighter.
She can't take that away from me.
Dude.
Uh, I'm s Uh, what is he doing here?
This camp is not a campaign event.
Everything can be a campaign
event if you have an Eli.
- An Eli?
- Yeah.
Uh, can I give you guys
a hand with this stuff?
Uh, no, I'm pretty sure
I'm stronger than you.
Plus, most of this stuff is dusty,
and you look like a guy with allergies.
Ooh!
So, today is the first
day of your FD careers.
Today we're gonna teach you
what it means to be a firefighter,
and we're gonna treat
you like firefighters.
So every shift begins with a lineup.
And, uh, you're gonna
introduce yourselves,
and, like real firefighters,
you're gonna use your last names, okay?
You're gonna leave all of your issues
and your self-doubt at the
door with your first names.
All right?
So, today, we are
Herrera.
Warren.
- Bishop.
- Sullivan.
Over here?
- O'Hare.
- Mm-hmm.
- Coles.
- Davila.
- Sophie.
- She said last names.
It's okay.
It's okay.
- Santos.
- That's good.
Thank you.
- Hendrix.
- Lupex.
Whoa, is that lightning?
Okay, you know what? Let's
just get started, huh?
Come on, everyone, let's suit up.
Um
- Should we go inside?
- Well, it's far away.
The weather report said it's still
miles outside of Seattle, so
Uh
Look, everybody knows this, right?
You count the number of seconds
between the flash of
lightning and the thunder,
and then you divide by five for
the distance of the storm in miles.
- Right.
- Right?
That's what it is.
So, 9, 10.
Oh, my God, it's so far away.
It's so far away.
Wow, impressive.
Gonna be honest
- A little starstruck.
- Ah, you're a runner, too?
Yeah, track and field at school, but
I mean, you're Olympic, so, wow.
I also listen to dispatch all the time,
and I hear your name a lot, so
- You listen to dispatch?
- Yeah. Fire nerd.
- Obsessed.
- Good, you have to be.
You have to be single-focused,
more determined than anyone else here,
and have the mental
and physical strength
to work through the pain. Get out there.
Right here.
Ready? Let's go.
Very nice, very nice.
Oh.
When thunder roars, you go indoors.
Okay, you are so much
hotter than rhyming wisdom,
- whi
- Ooh.
There you go.
One, two
- Yeah, he's right. We gotta call it.
- Chief, we don't
There is plenty for
them to learn inside.
All right, I need all these
girls inside right now!
Let's go! Let's pull it in!
Pick up a cone, we're heading
inside. Follow me, follow me.
All right, ladies, come in here.
We're just gonna stack
the cones right on that X.
X marks the spot here. Right here. Yep.
Thank you, and then we're gonna line up.
We're gonna line up again, okay?
Aid Car 19, Ladder 19, Engine 19
All right, all right,
this way, this way.
Come on, ladies.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Right in here, right in here.
You can watch through your window.
Let's go, let's go. Keep
it moving, keep it moving.
Efficiency and with urgency,
efficiency and urgency.
- I like to see it.
- This way, this way. This way.
Come on, come on, come on.
Hey! It's a call, not a parade, Beckett.
How 'bout we set a good example
for our team and our guests?
Move! Let's go.
- Good, now let's line up here, ladies.
- I like that teamwork.
Oh, yeah, nice, nice.
Hey, how long do you think you'll be?
This union endorsement is no joke.
- You can't miss the meeting.
- He's a firefighter.
I'm pretty sure the firefighters' union
will understand if
Travis is a little late
because he's busy fighting a fire.
- Oh!
- What she said.
Gibson.
Yeah, I was looking for
Herrera, but I guess they're out?
I need you in there helping
Hughes with fire camp.
- Perfect. Two birds.
- Um
Team got a call because of course
there's a lightning storm
on the day of this fire camp.
And I can't leave a station full
of teenagers with just Hughes,
so I need to be here
dealing with citywide chaos.
I need you in there helping Vic.
Uh, well, uh Uh, I
- I don't work here.
- Well, thank you for volunteering.
Go.
There are survivors in that?
We shall see.
Wiggins, Klyne, get a protection
line foam that fuel!
Sullivan, Herrera, assess the pilot.
Montgomery, Warren,
medical on the passengers.
Everyone else, extrication tools!
Quickly and with focus, boys and girls.
The lightning that brought this down
could just as easily screw us!
You know, you want to inspire the team?
Calling us kittens and boys
and girls isn't the way to go.
Oh, I didn't realize daily inspiration
was also your expectation of me.
This is the FD, Ru-is,
not a self-help seminar.
It's Ruiz.
- My name's pronounced Ru-iz.
- Okay.
Hey, hey.
Look at Bishop. She's not okay.
- Yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
- No, dude, she shouldn't even be here.
Is there a problem over there, you two?!
- Herrera, you're supposed
- I know, I know. I was
- to be assessing the helo.
- just gonna make sure
Go where your captain is telling you!
Hey! Can you hear me in there?
My name is Travis. This is Ben.
We're here to help you guys, okay?
It doesn't look good in there, Warren.
Hey, how we doing in there?
Um, I think I'm okay, but Jonathan
This can't be good, right?
Well, I've seen worse.
Oh, you sound like her. Isabel's
always trying to keep it positive.
Keep everyone alert and alive.
- Alive?
- Best producer out there.
Look at where we're at because of me!
There's a pole through your leg.
I'm the one who insisted
we fly in the storm.
Oh, my God. This is all my fault.
Isabel, this isn't on you.
You didn't force me to do this.
Okay, Isabel, we're gonna
get you out of there,
but you gotta help us
by remaining calm, okay?
What about Omar, the pilot? Is he okay?
Our colleagues are working
on him in the front right now.
Okay.
- Whoo!
- Wow, thank you. Thank you.
All right, Gibson, let's go.
Yep.
No, i-it's my wrist.
- I had injury, so
- Right. Whatever you say, guy.
I did. It was really bad.
All right. O'Hare, show
him how it's done. Let's go.
Whoo! Very nice!
All the way down. Santos, you're up.
That's okay. Try again.
No, I don't I really don't want to.
It was It was
already better than mine.
Look, I said I don't want to.
Okay, Gibson, you want
to take over for a second?
- Yeah, l-let's roll these bad boys up.
- Santos, come here.
Look, can I please just go
now? This really isn't for me.
Okay, it is just day one, right?
I'm not good at things on
day two, three, or 53 either.
This is why my parents
are making me try this.
Okay.
Look, I wasn't great
at any of this stuff
when I was at the academy,
and look at me now, right?
Okay, all of this is so
much more about your head
than any of the physical stuff.
And you're obviously one of
the smartest ones here, right?
See? Yeah, you know it.
Only smart people make themselves nuts
about what they're
good at or not good at.
Okay?
Try it again, huh?
You got it.
Firefighter, leader, and a shrink,
that's very nice.
Thanks, Chief. Thanks.
- Question for you.
- Yeah?
What's your take on Captain Beckett?
Um, uh, I-I think he it's
- He must be in a tough position.
- Honesty over diplomacy, please.
Okay. Um
Well, here it is
Uh, he is a bare minimum guy
in a house of overachievers.
We're a "how do you go above
and beyond" kinda house,
and he's a "sit around and wait for
your pension to kick in" kinda captain.
And it's a bummer and
starting to affect everything.
Wow, you just distilled
into two sentences
what I couldn't even put into words.
Thank you.
It's looking great,
team. Love to see it.
Keep it up.
All right, Girls Camp?
Girls Camp!
Hey, I'm Andy.
And that's Sullivan over there.
I'm I'm Omar.
Omar, save your energy.
I-I tried to land to
take the brunt of
brunt of the impact.
Yep, and you succeeded, my friend.
Looks like your passengers are
gonna be okay because of it.
You're You're a hero.
I ju I jus I just don't know
Don't know any other way.
Exactly what a hero would say.
When you're a pilot,
you're you're in command.
Y-You keep your people safe.
You're a good man, Omar.
I wish more people thought like you.
Dad?
D-Dad?
Dad, what are you What are you
What's my da What's my dad, um
Dad, I I've missed you.
M-My dad's here.
Yeah?
- He's gone, Andy.
- I know, I know.
I'm just gonna
- I know.
- Andy, he's gone.
I know. I
Andy!
He's gone.
He gave his life to save his passengers.
Let's get them out.
Focus, focus, focus. Okay, hey!
Those two breaths didn't go in.
What do we do next? What do we do?
Oh, you re-tilt the
airway and try again?
Yes! Very nice, very nice.
Okay, so those two breaths did go in.
And now what?
- Two breaths, five cycles
- This is so boring.
I did this in lifeguard training.
Can we please go back to
doing firefighter stuff?
This is firefighter stuff.
- This is boring.
- Okay, well, it's CPR.
All right, well, you
know, make them do it
to the beat of "Achy Breaky Heart".
A song literally none
of them are gonna know?
- Really?
- "Stayin' Alive"?
- They're 17-year-olds, Jack.
- Right.
- Uh, uh, um
- Oh, please.
Right, okay, uh, I think it might help
if we do it to the beat
of, uh, "Baby Shark".
- Oh, God, no. No, no!
- Yes! Yeah!
All right, so
Baby Shark, doo doo, doo-doo-doo ♪
- Baby Shark, doo doo doo ♪
- You are evil!
- Baby Shark, doo doo doo ♪
- That's gonna be stuck in all
of our heads for literally days.
Which is exactly where
your CPR training should be.
Right? So, again now.
Baby Shark, doo doo ♪
You guys laugh, but this is important.
- But it's also still so boring.
- I agree.
This is literally one
of the most important
things you could learn all day.
Well, right, but if we're
out there fighting a fire,
we wouldn't be doing this stuff.
Wouldn't the paramedics be doing it?
- Well
- Okay, but a paramedic and a firefighter
are one in the same out in the field,
and equally as important.
Equally?
I'd even argue that it's more important.
When I was in Iraq,
another soldier and I
were on a recon mission,
and we had to stay the
night in a safe house.
It got shelled while we were there.
My partner had a bullet
go through his lung.
We couldn't get extracted.
So with just the supplies
from our walking packs
and half a bottle of whiskey
that the last people had left,
I had to sedate him, intubate him,
and then do compressions
on and off all night long
because he kept losing his pulse.
4 hours and 17 minutes.
- I'm in love with her.
- Right?
It was this moment of instinct
and training and purpose
all coming together.
I wouldn't be in the
place that I am right now
without a class just like this one.
And now I'm everybody's boss.
Y'all get that, right?
All right. Great.
So why don't we give it
another shot, huh, with heart?
- Gibson, what was that song?
- Uh
Baby Shark, doo doo doo-doo-doo ♪
- Hey.
- Baby Shark ♪
One, two, three.
What about him?
What about Jonathan?
- He's next.
- I can't leave him!
We wouldn't be in this
mess if it wasn't for me.
What about Omar, the
pilot? Did he make it?
Ma'am, our team's all over this,
and we're the best there is, all right?
We're gonna get you
over to Seattle Pres.
And we're gonna keep
you posted on your guys.
C-collar.
Uh, I'm feeling a little weird.
Okay, well, weird how, Jonathan?
Like, uh Like pain?
Not really pain.
- It's more tingly?
- Where?
- Like, uh, in your legs?
- Yeah, maybe.
I don't think I can really feel my legs.
Okay. Well, you know what? That's, uh
That's good for us to know.
Just let us know if
anything changes, all right?
Hey, Sullivan. Sullivan!
I need you to tell Beckett
that we're gonna pull the
whole seat out of there.
If we try to cut that
rod and extract him,
- we could cause total paralysis.
- Got it.
Yeah, but I need
regular updates on 81's status
and the companies on
the construction site
- by Green Lake, okay?
- Copy, Chief.
Vic, what are you doing out here?
Uh, the Uh, they're on
a break, so and I'm
Sorry, Chi Uh, you kind
of blew my mind back there.
- Blew your mind how?
- Yeah, I
I don't think I've ever f-felt
like that about any of this.
How you felt in that safe house,
right in the pocket, the
clarity and the the purpose
I just don't think I have ever
- felt like that about anything.
- Okay, now
No, uh, Chief, I just
feel like I'm always
I'm always just floating
around in the tide.
I'm never the one driving the
boat. I'm never even in a boat.
- Okay, so
- I'm just Here No, I'm sorry.
Here I am telling these girls
that this is the
- greatest job in the world
- Mm-hmm.
And that everything else just
makes more sense inside of this,
and I do not know if I believe that.
Hughes, there's a lot
going on right now.
- I need you to stay on ta
- Okay, but how did you
How did you know that your
pocket was your pocket?
Because I want to be like
that, I want to feel like that.
Vic, I'm sor I'm gonna
have to stop you right there.
- Yeah.
- I'm helping you with fire camp.
I'm dealing with a
citywide lightning storm.
This may not be the perfect moment
- for a mentoring session, okay?
- Understood, understood.
- Okay.
- Thank you, Chief.
All right, Jonathan, not much longer.
Hey, hey, Jonathan. Jonathan, hey.
Hey. We're in the homestretch now, okay?
Just stay calm. Stay
with us. Stay with us.
I feel so stupid.
I wanted to be a war
correspondent, you know?
Sounds silly, but it
felt like a calling.
I got it, and I ignored it.
Well, I didn't ignore it.
I gave it up.
For my wife.
That sounds romantic.
Not really.
Made me hate her.
I mean, not hate her, but resent her.
Which is worse, I think, 'cause
I'm not mean to anyone but her.
I'm serious! To everyone else,
I'm the best guy in the world.
You know what I thought when you
guys started to whisper about me
possibly having a spinal injury?
- Wait, y-y-you heard that?
- I'm a really good reporter.
I heard you and I thought,
"That'll show her."
Because she'd have to take care
of my paralyzed ass forever.
The ultimate punishment.
I actually had that thought
in the middle of all this.
How screwed up is that?
I'm sure you're under a lot of stress,
and I'm sure you didn't mean
to say anything like that
Oh, I meant every bit.
Who knew it could get worse?
That what I'm feeling
now would be more awful
and terrifying than that?
Jonathan.
Jonathan, what're you feeling now?
'Cause to be honest,
I'm a little bit afraid
of what the answer's gonna be.
Desperately, frantically,
painfully in love with her.
I have to fix this.
If I'm in this marriage,
I have to be in it.
I love her.
We got you.
We're gonna take care of
you. You're gonna be okay.
Warren.
I'll be right back.
Beckett's not going for it.
Hey. Hey, Jonathan, buddy,
better late than never.
I believe in you. Look at where you are.
You're already casually
defying the odds.
Okay?
No, Captain, I hear that, but
medically speaking, I'm telling you
Just because you think
you also have X-ray eyes
doesn't mean we're gonna make
life riskier for this team.
The longer we stay out here,
the greater the chance
that one of us gets fried.
- Respectfully, Captain, I'm a doctor
- No, Warren.
The safest and fastest thing to do
is to cut that man out of that chair
Oh, my God! This is ridiculous.
- Excuse me?
- No, she's actually right.
- We are wasting time.
- You're out of line, too, Herrera.
Ben knows what he's
talking about! And you have
Captain, I know what
I'm saying, all right?
This is how we save this man.
He's a doctor. You need to listen.
All right, you know what?
You seem like you really want
to run the show,
Herrera, so why don't you?
Let's see how you do, hm?
Change of plans, everyone.
We're extricating in the chair!
Now let's go. Move, move, move!
Ruiz, Bishop, Cutler, V
struts and stabilize that helo.
Montgomery, open up that
left side and get us egress.
Everyone else, we need all hands
Keep everybody back!
No, no, hey! We don't
have enough as it is.
No.
What?
I needed this.
You know, working with the girls and you
- and doing something I'm good at.
- Oh, buddy.
Didn't mind them being
super mean to me, either.
- Of course you didn't.
- What is that?
Obviously I didn't grow up with family,
but watching other people's,
I thought the thing
that distinguished it
from everyone else was that
you could give each other crap
or mess up, and they'd still
have to love you, you know?
Couldn't kick you out of
the circle or return you.
What's that?
Me as a baby.
My bio-sister dropped it off.
And my parents have been
holding onto it for years.
Apparently they did
love me, they just
- didn't like me.
- Jack.
Come on, that's That's
different. You know it is.
And if you don't,
I'm I'm telling you.
And I can be as mean about
it as you need me to be
for it to sink in.
Jack, they they loved you.
And they couldn't keep you.
Okay?
So, you got a sister
sniffing around, huh?
How do we feel about that?
Curious, I guess. I don't know.
- Confused.
- Okay.
Those are normal and
appropriate feelings.
I can work with that.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Stop! Hold!
Hold, hold. Bishop, step away.
- Thought you were running the scene.
- I'm doing exactly that.
Hold him up. Stable.
We got it. I'm coming around.
Okay, just remember you
are its brains, all right?
I'm right behind you. Good.
Oh! That's good, that's
good. Right in the work.
Perfect.
What the
Give me this, give me this, Santos.
Help! Help! You have to
help me! Somebody, Help!
Girls, get back! Get
back! Everybody, get back!
- Help, please!
- Okay, sir!
You have to help me!
- Sir.
- Please!
Hold on. Slow down,
slow down, slow down.
Stay back there. Right here, right here.
You gotta help!
They were struck by lightning.
We were just getting to
my mom's for Sunday lunch.
She said not to come in the storm.
Monitors. We gotta get them
all on monitors with defib pads.
What does that mean? Are
- they going to be okay?
- Hey, back up, back up.
Enzo, Enzo. Just
keep talking to me, okay?
They were unloading the car.
We've been bringing her
supplies for the week.
Lightning hit the ground or something.
I was still in the car.
It should have been me.
No, no, no, it's good it
wasn't. You got them here, right?
- Hey, hey, let me work.
- Dispatch, this is Chief Ross.
I need three aid cars to Station 19
for three post-lightning
cardiac arrests.
Chief, every aid car in
a 20-mile radius is on a call.
- Please.
- Just give me what you can when you can.
Suddenly they all fell and were out.
I threw them in the trunk
and just brought them him.
- You did that yourself?
- Charging.
- Chief, we need more hands.
- I know, uh
Santos, O'Hare, I
need you over here now.
You're helping.
Uh, Coles, Davila, grab med bags.
Good, good, good.
Look at me.
Look at me. It's just
like how I'm doing.
Just like we were doing this morning.
You were both so great at it,
which is why I called you over.
All right, it's not
as scary as it looks.
You got it.
You got it. Ready? Take over.
You got it.
O'Hare, O'Hare. O'Hare, look at me.
- I'm right here. You got this, okay?
- Right.
Hey, hey, hey.
- "Baby Shark", right?
- Right.
Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Baby Shark, doo
doo-doo-doo, Baby Shark ♪
- Almost.
- Doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Good, good.
Keep going.
Doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Ready.
- Clear.
- Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
You're doing great. Check his pulse.
Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Oh, my God, I have a pulse. Oh,
my God, oh, my God, oh, my God!
That's good, Santos! That's good.
That's good.
- Oh, hey.
- Baby Shark, doo doo-doo-doo ♪
Hey. Oh! Look at who's so strong.
Deep breaths, all right?
Your dad's right there.
Okay. Good job, kiddo.
Hey, looks like your wife
is coming around, too.
Hey, baby, can you hear me?
Hospital dispatch,
this is Aid Car 19, Ben Warren.
En route with a 40-year-old
male, alert and oriented,
with a spinal injury and leg impalement.
We're gonna need a lot
of hands with this one.
We're ready for you, Aid 19.
- I don't think you are.
- 19
No, tell trauma, tell
ortho, and tell neurosurgery.
That will be assessed
when you deliver
Already been assessed.
I'm calling to make sure that
everyone's prepared for this,
because I know you
don't have enough hands.
Thank you.
Hey. That's leadership right there.
They didn't want to listen,
you made them listen.
You didn't call them cute names.
You weren't an ass about it.
- Thank you?
- Meanwhile, Bishop's wilding out
and no one is doing anything about it.
- Herrera pulled her.
- Too little, too late.
And Herrera isn't the captain.
This is as much a Beckett problem
as it is a Bishop problem,
and I'm sick of it.
Look, I'm I'm worried
about Bishop, too.
But Beckett, I mean, it's
It just kinda is what it is.
No. No, man, a-a crappy
captain is the kiss of death.
I know 'cause I was one.
Thank you so much.
All of you.
Of course, of course. Good luck.
- Hey, hey, hey.
- That was so scary.
- I can't do this.
- It's okay.
- It's over now, right?
- Hey.
- Hey, no, no, no. No, no, no.
- I can't. I can't.
I got you. I got you.
I got you. It's okay.
It's okay. I got you.
I don't know how you guys do this.
I can't do this. I can't do this.
We kind of already did do it?
Yeah, she's right. She's right. You did.
You did. You all did.
Okay?
Day one, lives saved.
It's no big deal, right?
I'm sorry. I don't know
what's wrong with me.
No, no, no. Hey, hey, hey. Look at me.
This is relief crying.
And I do it all the time, too.
- So does he.
- Oh, yeah.
This is actually
the best kind of crying
for a firefighter, okay?
It means you don't let
your emotions unravel
and you stay focused when you're
in the middle of the saving
and the doing and the whole thing.
Right?
And it also means you don't bottle it up
and let it mess with your
head or your insides later.
All right, so this can be a good thing.
- This is a good thing. You can cry.
- Okay.
You can cry.
You did good.
You did good today.
I have a million texts from Eli.
Yeah, that tracks.
I've practically ignored
everything he's asked me to do.
He's not an idiot.
He knew what he was in for.
Yeah, but I don't think I did.
I mean, it's like
It's like it was a game before
and he's trying to make it a job.
And it's just
I don't know. It's like,
am I in this, or am I not?
Are you Are you still "in charge"?
Because if we go directly there,
then maybe I can catch
the end of this thing.
No? Like, "no" like
it's a terrible idea?
Or like "I have to ask Beckett"?
Beckett.
Hey, Captain!
Vic, if you say that
you still don't feel like
you were in the pocket today,
there's something wrong with you.
I watched you in here all
day, over and over again,
how you counseled those girls,
how you taught those girls.
Yeah, I know. That felt good.
Chief, it felt good, it
felt right, it felt easy.
Well, not easy, you know, but, um
Yeah, I know. I know.
And it all makes sense to me.
And that's why it even
more feels like I am
on the wrong path here.
Vic, despite being incredibly smart,
you are incredibly dramatic.
Why can't the right thing be easy?
Why can't it be something
right in front of you?
Why can't it be something that
you are already doing well?
- Well
- Vic, I want you to run Crisis One.
- Me?
- You.
You're good with people,
with their feelings,
with getting in their heads
while still holding
space for their hearts.
And you are one of the
best first responders
I have ever seen because
you care so deeply.
Thank you?
Diane Lewis has pitched in beautifully,
but now Crisis One
needs a permanent leader.
Someone with your exact
combined skill set.
Now, w-why haven't
you taken the reins on this yet?
W-Wasn't that the plan?
Well, yeah, yeah, it was.
It's just that that was
when it was a pilot program,
- not this big citywide thing.
- Yeah, right.
Exactly. So now it needs a real leader.
Vic, your purpose isn't
some big, giant thing
that you're gonna discover
out there somewhere.
It's everything that you have done,
everything that you're going to do
that connects the dots of your life
that brings meaning and
value to you, to others.
All of those dots make
you ideal for Crisis One.
You missed it, Montgomery.
But of course you did.
I was, uh
Hey! Hey, guys!
Hey, I-I know I'm late,
but just, uh just
hear me out for a second.
I-I was I was on a call,
and I couldn't leave
my post or my team to
I think what I'm trying to
say is that I'm just like you.
And if you'll support
me, if you'll do that,
you will, for the first time,
have a candidate that is one of you.
That knows the struggle
of all firefighters.
- Travis.
- Eli.
This is the cleaning crew.
And a lot of hot air
to compensate for his hot head.
Lucky his campaign isn't doing better.
Between the lack of
commitment and anger issues,
he'd reflect so poorly on FD.
Sir, I just want you to know
that there are a lot of things
being said about me right
now, and none of them are true.
I agree, Montgomery.
That's why it was so important
for you to be here today.
Unfortunately, this meeting is over.
We all have our FD obligations
we're honoring, too.
Yes, sir.
- I told you today was important.
- I know that.
I know that!
- You don't think I didn't know that?
- You're making it worse.
You're making it look like you
really do have anger issues.
Travis!
- His temper.
- You have to get it together.
I'll do better than that
Leak the Dixon story.
- Captain, what w
- You can't still be mad at me,
I rerouted the rigs for your buddy.
No, what was that on the call today?
You just checked out.
No, on the contrary, you wanted
to play captain, I let you.
- Yeah, it's harder than it looks, huh?
- I was fine.
Yeah, with the mechanics
of the call, sure,
that's the easy part.
It's managing your tender personalities
that makes this job a real pain.
Speaking of personality management
You wanted to play captain for a day,
why don't you get to it, boss?
Hey.
Now you care who you
embarrass me in front of?
I wasn't trying to embarrass you.
I was trying to keep people safe.
- I was trying to keep you safe.
- No.
I think you were using
me to angle for captain.
Oh, get out of here. Are
we Are we doing this again?
Deny it, but I'm right. Just like
I'm right about Ross and Sullivan
and just like I've been
right about Beckett.
Everyone's just riding me to
distract from their own stuff
and I'm sick of it. Are
you listening to yourself?
Yeah, the other night I
decided to do exactly that.
Okay, so that's what we're doing.
Rogue Maya is listening to herself?
You know, I don't need
a lecture right now.
I'm trying to help you.
I am fighting for you, not against you.
I-I pulled you off that scene
because you do not seem okay.
I know you, when you're spiraling,
when you're really
sinking, you go after me.
You go after everyone.
You go after your team.
Because that's what your
dad taught you to do.
You go for gold alone.
But me and this team, we
We are not your competition.
We are a team you work with.
We We do this together,
but you have to let us.
Please.
Are we done here?
Hey.
Hi.
What's wrong?
- I heard it went great today.
- Oh, no, it was. It was.
It was great.
For the girls, for Hughes, for me.
But I cannot stop thinking
about this morning.
This morning?
You get that we'll
probably never be able
to ride to work together, right?
- We'll figure it out.
- I hate it.
I don't know how being with
you is somehow harder than not,
because that was awful. But this
Sully, this feels impossible.
All right, we'll never
be able to carpool.
Seattle is a big city, we
can explore its outskirts.
Seattle is not as big
as you think it is.
All right, well, we'll
move. How 'bout that, huh?
We'll quit our jobs and
we'll move, uh, to Spain.
Sully
Sorry, look, I'm not
making light of this.
But what do you want me to say, huh?
I want more and so do you.
- And it's not gonna change.
- Exactly.
You know how rare it is
for someone like me to be where I am.
Positions like mine are not
handed out to people like me.
And even when we get them,
it stays so precarious.
- Sully, you know that.
- Profoundly.
I love where I am.
I deserve where I am.
I'm great at where I am.
But today I realized there's something
that's more important than that.
People look up to me.
People who look like me,
people who need an example
of a me to know that
they can do it, too.
I cannot mess this up for myself,
and I really can't
mess this up for them.
- Natasha, you are not listening.
- Listen, I don't know
- how we make this work.
- What What
Sully, I'm saying I
don't know if we can.
I am so sorry.
I'm sorry.
Herrera! Let's go!
