Chicago Fire s11e22 Episode Script
Red Waterfall
1
I thought that you were
a task force liaison
- I'm supposed to be meeting with.
- I am.
An anti-government organization
may be planning infrastructure
attacks right here in Chicago.
Kylie Estevez officially
passed the firefighter's test.
It's not the final step,
but it's a big one.
I really miss him.
I just hope that there's not something
more serious going on.
Severide wrapped up
this thing in Alabama
and now he's on some ATF investigation.
What are you talking about?
What I want is to adopt Amber's baby.
That's pretty big news.
And now that you know that,
you can start
figuring out how to make that happen.
Amber, hi.
What are you doing here?
I know that's a lot to ask.
[PENSIVE MUSIC]
I left all that behind in Chicago.
I'm starting over here, okay?
I get that. I do.
But your own instinct
was that I'm the right person
to care for that little girl.
And that's exactly what I wanna do.
I promise that's all I want.
What would I have to do?
You'd reclaim custody of the baby.
She's in a foster home now.
Then you can designate
me her legal guardian,
and eventually, adoptive mother.
Eventually?
How long does all this take?
I can be her legal guardian
almost right after you take custody.
The adoption part could take longer,
but I'd have her the whole time.
You wouldn't have to do a thing.
She wants some time to think.
She promised it would be soon,
so I've been checking my phone
every two seconds.
- That's a legit request.
- It is. I know.
I'm sure she wants to talk
to her parents about it too.
I'm glad I showed up in person.
I could tell that made
an impression on her.
I have a really good feeling about this.
Yeah, me too.
I hope you guys are right.
What happened when you called Severide?
It was fine, I guess.
I asked him about why he didn't tell me
about the new job detail.
He told me it came up too suddenly.
He kept telling me it was
no big deal and not to worry.
Doesn't sound like it worked.
He was just so vague about everything,
and not just what, exactly,
he's up to there,
but also, uh
how it affects when he comes home.
He said that's a little
up in the air right now.
I don't know what's going on with him.
♪
Yes, this is personal business.
I'm sorry.
It's a flyer for my friend's band.
- I can pay you per page.
- No worries.
I actually just wanted
to ask you a question.
How long after the lottery was done
did you find out if your number
had been called?
The thing is, I heard that they drew
this year's lottery, like, a week ago,
and I haven't gotten an email
or call or anything.
Don't panic.
With the CFD,
there are a million reasons
for bureaucratic delays.
Just give it a little more time.
Then if it's still radio silence,
I'll help you dig into it, okay?
Okay. Yeah.
Great.
- Thanks, Ritter.

Mouch, Gallo let's
grab four paratech struts,
shore up this boat.
Carver, grab the jaws.
- On it.
- Copy.
Violet, Brett, stay back
until we stabilize this mess.
Copy.
It's my fault. It's all my fault.
I tried to make a right turn
from the center lane.
It's just so stupid.
I cut that guy off.
He clipped the trailer.
The boat came loose
and landed on this poor lady.
Then that one, it bounced off her.
All right. Hey, I'll check the sedan.
- Copy that.
- Stay here.
Carver, go check on that SUV.
You okay, ma'am?
My ears are ringing.
Yeah, yeah, that's just the airbag.
It'll stop soon.

You hurt anyplace else?
I don't know. I'm I'm I'm shaking.
It's okay, all right?
Take a deep breath.
- [BREATHES DEEPLY]
- There you go.
The worst part's over.
Hey, where's the driver of the SUV?
I don't know, man. He just took off.
Took off? Like, on foot?
Yeah, he grabbed a big
duffel out of the back,
and he just ran, basically.
I never got any chance to talk to him.
- Doing great. Almost there.
- Oh, thank you.
I've never been so afraid in my life.
Ah, you're doing fine now.
- What's your name?
- Christopher.
Christopher, thank you so much.
- Yeah.
- Um
- Ms. Doreen
- Yeah?
Is a medium, and you must let
me repay you with a reading.
Ah, that's okay, ma'am.
You really don't need to do this.
Christopher, listen to me.
You are going to experience
great pain very soon.
I am so sorry.
Okay, I gotta get back to work.
[JAWS WHIRRING]
- Got it.
- Okay.
Okay.
One, two, three.
One, two, three.
Pulse is steady.
Let's get her on oxygen.
Copy.
Hey, your lady doing okay?
She's off her nut, but yeah.
- She didn't get hurt at all.
- Good.
And what about the SUV?
I guess there was one occupant,
but he fled the scene.
Fled why?
- Accident wasn't his fault.
- No idea.
The boat guy said he grabbed
a big duffel out of the back
and took off without a word.
Hey, we got a cop on scene?
Rolled up a couple minutes ago.
Yeah, send him my way, would you?
Yep.

[ENGINE RUMBLING]
What do you think
the story is with the Tahoe?
Yeah, I found this in the back.
Whoa. .50 caliber?
Oh, hell if know.
But when I went to that meeting
with Homeland Security
a while back, they told us
about an anti-government group
they thought might be using
large caliber rounds
to damage electrical infrastructure.
So what are you gonna do?
I just texted this to Casey.
I'll wait to see what he says
before I start to panic.
Hey, good run?
Boat accident on Roosevelt.
Yeah, be glad you didn't get called out.
A lot of bad juju on that one.
What do you mean?
I helped out this kooky palm reader,
and she tells me that
I got trouble coming my way.
Back up.
You let her read your palm
in the middle of the call?
Well, she didn't give me a choice.
First, it's meditation,
and now he's seeing a psychic.
- What's this world coming to?
- It's not funny.
What she said was awful.
What'd she say?
Well, she said
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]
"You're gonna feel
great pain very soon."
- Yeah, that's kinda creepy.
- Right?
Who says to that somebody they just met?
I think you can safely
ignore any prophecies
from a lady with a
"basic witch" bumper sticker.
I'm not saying I believe her,
just that it was awful.
Okay.
Hey, Chief, any chance
you got a minute to talk?
I'm actively looking to do anything
but this damn paperwork.
So yes, please, come on in.
What's up?
Well, this is
It's gonna sound kinda strange.
I can handle that.
Okay.
Can you tell me about Benny Severide?
Why do you ask?
You can be honest.
[PENSIVE MUSIC]
Look, I've heard Kelly's side,
but I really want your take.
It would mean a lot to me, Chief.
Okay.
Benny was a wanderer,
which I'm sure you've heard.
He never stayed anywhere for very long,
and it caused him as much pain
as it caused the people that he loved,
even though he never showed it.
According to Kelly's mom,
he showed it by drinking his
way through Illinois.
Stella
What's going on?
To tell you the truth
I don't really know.
♪
[SHOWER RUNNING]
Hey. Are you waiting for me?
No, not really.
Yes, I guess I was.
Still no word from Amber.
And I was thinking about this,
she doesn't really know me,
so why would she trust me?
I'm sure you were clear
about how serious you are.
Well, I said the words, but
what does that mean to Amber?
I mean, she wants nothing
to do with this baby,
and I'm asking her to take custody
so I can become the guardian.
But what if I backed out?
She'd have to go through
the whole painful experience
of handing her baby
back to the state again.
She trusted you enough
to leave the baby here.
That's something.
I'm just not sure it's enough.
Sorry if I'm interrupting.
Not at all.
We were just walking to the locker room.
Don't think I haven't noticed
how you've been looking at him lately.
You are totally misreading that.
Uh-huh.
I mean, does he look good in a towel?
Yes. Am I allowed to look?
Come on, Brett.
[PHONE RINGING]
Just say it, I'm being overdramatic.
I wouldn't say that.
- No?
- Not at all.
We were told to have our radar up
for threats
- to the power grid.
- Right, but all I found was a bullet.
That bullet is called a Raufoss round.
.50 caliber BMG ammunition
with a high-explosive,
armor-piercing projectile.
Raufoss.
It's Norwegian for red waterfall.
- Oh, lovely.
- Yeah.
It'll go clean through steel armor
and detonate on the other side.
Extremely destructive.
So what's this guy doing with it?
Good question.
It's not illegal,
but it's incredibly expensive
and very hard to get ahold of.
You remember that incident
out here I talked about
- with the militia group?
- Sure.
Those guys were known to possess
a cache of these rounds.
There has to be a connection.
So what are we gonna do?
I'm coming to you.
I'm gonna catch a redeye
to Chicago tonight.
Oh.
You need to reach out to Chris McManus.
Remember him, your DHS contact
in the Midwest?
Yeah.
You need to tell him what
you found as soon as possible.
Because I think we're looking at exactly
what those guys
have been warning us about.

♪
Can't sleep?
No.
Amber on your mind?
That's a lot of it.
Casey called to tell me he's
coming to Chicago tomorrow,
and Dylan has been so great
with all this talk of a baby,
and things are finally
going well with him
after Casey's last visit
when I spun out a little.
But it sounds like
it's good that he's coming.
Is that the DHS threat
that's keeping you up,
or is it Severide?
Mama Severide, most of all.
Some stuff she said
to me a few years ago
has been ringing in my ears.
She told me Kelly is destined
to become his father,
and that is not a man I should marry.
She's wrong, Stella.
I don't know anymore, Sylvie.
Maybe Kelly really is
a wanderer at heart.
Now that we've been apart for a while,
he's slipping right back to that.
We're losing our connection
no matter how hard I try.
I know how tough it
can be trying to stay close
over long distance.
But as soon as you're together,
all those complications fade.
Everything that you feel for each other
is gonna come rushing back.

Come on.
First there's all this
chit-chat in Kidd's office,
and now you come poking at me?
It's sleep time.
I have an idea I wanna run by you.
How are you feeling
about giving up the crown?
I have gotten a little attached
to the lieutenant's title,
I'll admit it.
Fits you like a glove too.
When is Severide coming back?
Isn't it, like, a week or two?
[SCOFFS] It was supposed
to be, but it might be longer.
Why? What's going on?
I'm not sure.
Just that there might be some
kind of delay in his return.
That's all I know.
I
I just made this pot.
Who drank all the coffee?
You did.
I did?
Well, it's no wonder,
after all the jibber-jabber
in the bunk room last night.
Hmm. I slept right through it.
- Same.
- Good for you.
You see how well you sleep
after Ms. Doreen
predicts a horrible fate for you.
I thought you said you didn't
believe in that claptrap.
I don't, but after the year

♪
I hope we're wrong about this,
but I wanna be here
if there's anything I can do to help.
I'm sure DHS appreciates it.
I know Kidd does.
I'm trying to adopt a baby.
Really?
Yeah.
This little girl we rescued
right after she was born,
there are some issues
with the birth mom, so
That probably sounds crazy and sudden.
No, it doesn't. You've always
been great with little ones.
You had such a sweet connection
with Amelia
right after she was born.
Thanks, Matt.
That means a lot.
And this this guy
you're seeing, Dylan,
is he a part of this, or?
Oh, no. No.
He's being supportive and everything,
but this is all me.
[SENTIMENTAL MUSIC]
Well, I'm happy for you.
Thank you.
Might not happen, honestly.
But still, I can't help
but feel like it's
It's meant to be.
McManus said so far, the
crashed Tahoe is a dead end.
The vehicle was stolen in Minnesota,
but the tags belonged to a
different car from Champagne.
FBI is still looking into that.
Haven't found any usable prints
or DNA in the Tahoe.
- None?
- That's what he said.
What about the .50 caliber round?
They confirmed it's one of
those scary Norwegian bullets.
But since it's not illegal to possess,
they don't see anything here
yet that would cause them
to raise their threat level.
So did you come
all this way for nothing?
I don't think so.
This threat's been dangling
out there for too long.
The other shoe has to drop
at some point.
Okay. I can push HQ to spread the word,
be on the alert for attacks
on the energy grid.
But beyond that, I'm not sure
what else we can do.
I'll stick around for a few days in case
there are any more developments.
But hopefully, I am wasting my time.
That's the best case scenario.
- Really.
- Amen.
- Keep me in the loop.
- Absolutely, Chief.
Hey, Kidd,
if you have to use the latrine,
do it now 'cause it's road trip time.
Where are you guys going?
♪
Thank you for letting us come.
We won't take up much of your time.
I can't believe you
drove all the way out here,
just like Sylvie did.
Amber has been through
plenty, as you guys know.
This is a lot to ask of a kid,
and if it was up to me,
you wouldn't be here.
Dad.
But Amber's got a big heart.
We can tell.
And we're here to support her,
not pressure her.
We wanted you to be able
to make an informed decision,
one you can feel good about always.
So as the people
who know Sylvie the best,
we wanted to help you
get to know her too.
And whatever you decide, we get it.
And we won't bother you again.
It's not that I haven't been
thinking about all of this,
but I can't, like, be a mom.
You know?
We do.
And that's why as soon as I heard
what these guys were up to,
I wanted to join
so I could tell you more about the most
amazing, caring person I know.
I don't blame Amber for being
overwhelmed by all of this.
She's only 16.
It's a lot for a teenager to handle.
Maybe too much.
This might be my last time
to see this little beauty.
Even if it is, I've been
doing this a long time,
and I know there will be
lots of other children
who need homes in the future.
And you'd be a wonderful mother
to any of them.
Thank you, Patty.
Have you given her a name yet?
No, we've been calling
her honey or sweetie,
the names we use with any baby
who won't be with us long.

What?
I've been spinning out
about things between us nonstop, and
I hate to say this because
I really, really like you,
but I think we need to break up.

I don't understand.
I thought things were going really well.
Is this about the baby?
Because that might
not even happen, Dylan.
I know.
But I can tell just the way
you've focused on her that
we're at really different
places in our lives right now.
You mean you don't want a family.
I do.
Someday.
But it's not just that.
Last time Matt was here,
you went MIA on me for a while.
And even when we were together,
you weren't all there.
And now he's back.
Look, he's here for work, not for me.
Are you sure about that?
Either way, it's pretty obvious
that you never really got over him.
Hey, you warned me at the start that
you weren't ready
for anything serious, and
you were right.
I'm sorry.

- He really does.
I can see why DHS has given him the job.
Yep.
How's everything with Severide?
That program still going good?
Yeah, there's no doubt Kelly
loves working arson cases.
He's really gotten
caught up in that world.
Ah, here he is.
Hey, any news?
Yeah, a lot of it.
DHS is suddenly very interested.
What changed their mind?
The tags on that SUV?
Turns out they're registered
to a false identity.
So the FBI ran the number
through this tracking system they have.
Those plates turned up
in surveillance footage
on a different vehicle three
weeks ago in Libertyville,
within blocks of an unsolved break-in
- at some power company offices.
- Whoa.
Now the FBI thinks it was someone
stealing proprietary information
about the Northern Illinois
electrical grid.
So are they gonna
raise the threat level?
Yes, but they still don't
know who they're looking for
or when they'll strike.
