Original subtitles

She ain't a good fit, Casey.

She thinks she's untouchable because of who her dad is.

CFD's not right for everyone.

That's what I've been trying to teach my daughter.

I want to be a firefighter. I got a taste of it, and I liked it.

I worry about you every time you get on that ambulance.

A truck was going to be that times ten.

Vince Keeler's gonna make a clean getaway. And I can't live with that.

I want in.

Nobody's heard from Keeler since last night. Seems he's gone missing.

Thanks for coming in.

We've got to follow-up on this while there's still a chance

to find Keeler alive, so...

You warned me not to do anything to Keeler. I took your advice.

- I've warned people before. - Fine. Great.

Where are... Where are we doing this?

I won't be doing the interview.

Hey, Kelly.

So...

Wednesday night.

I was home.

- The whole time? - That's right.

Er, what about your roommate, er, Leslie Shay?

- Out with friends. - She your girlfriend?

Probably would be if she wasn't a lesbian.

- Anyone come over to visit? - No. No one came over to visit

cos the scumbag who hurt my sister was out on the streets, free as a bird.

I wasn't in a very social mood.

I got to ask the questions.

Why don't you talk to the cop who sprang Keeler from jail?

Or, maybe it was you.

It's unforgivable what Keeler did.

But unless you come up with a better alibi, you're a suspect.

OK! The suggestion box on what I should get Cindy

for our 20th anniversary is now closed,

cos I figured out the perfect gift all on my own.

A vasectomy.

- Has she been after you to get one? - Nah! It never came up.

- It's gonna be a surprise. - Mazel tov.

- Thanks, Chief. - You're seriously going to surprise her

with the fact that you got snipped without her knowing about it first?

Yeah, cos we're soul mates, jackass. And that's what soul mates do.

Have you met your wife?

She's that very Catholic lady that sleeps next to you.

She was in labour for 18 hours with kid number five.

She'd be doing back flips over this if she, you know,

hadn't put on a little extra baby weight.

- Bad idea. - Shut it, Mouch.

What do you think of Jefferson Park?

Erm, I don't really get up there much. Why?

I got a great lead on a townhouse.

Two bedrooms, one and half baths, hardwood floors, parking in back.

Killer pub on the corner. On the nights we don't support Molly's, of course.

- Baby. - Yeah?

There were two things I said I didn't want.

To be more than 30 minutes from work and live in a townhouse.

- We talked about this. - Right, right. Yeah, of course.

I'll... I'll come up with some more options.

- We're gonna find a great place. - OK. Erm...

Well, I'm pretty free tomorrow.

I just have to stop by the Academy and register for the next physical.

Er, you'll have to wait till they announce the next Academy class.

Could be a while.

You know, I'm still planning on being a firefighter.

I know you are. And I totally support it.

Clarke.

You, too.

- Anyone from CPD talk to you? - No.

The whole Keeler thing? We never had that conversation.

- We don't talk about it again. - OK.

- Were you just over at the District? - Yeah.

Something happening with the Keeler case? Did he turn up?

- Not that I heard. - Well, what'd they say?

Do they have any theories?

Otis, I don't know. They don't CC me on the memos.

Let me know if you hear anything.

Truck 81, Squad 3, Ambo 61.

Car accident, 19th and Ashland Avenue.

No sign of the driver.

Truck 81, put that fire out and get a chain on the other car.

Squad 3, make sure no one's in the basement

and evacuate that building.

All right, Cruz and Jones, help me stabilize the car.

Herrmann and Mouch, get CO2 on that fire.

Mills, you're in the basement with me.

Right.

Fire Department! Anybody here, call out!

Help! In here!

Severide, there's a female victim and a baby in the basement.

I hear a man, but I don't see anybody else.

Help! Quick!

Hey, we got him. We got... Get them out of here!

- I got the baby. - She's stuck under debris.

Casey!

This is my fault. I swerved to avoid a dog and I hit this car.

We've got to get you out now, OK?

Take him.

Got it?

Whoa.

- Come on, guys! - Got it. Yeah!

Whoa! Watch out!

Look out!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The wall's giving!

Cruz! Go get the chain.

Coming in!

Got it! Go, hook it up!

Hurry!

I got you. All right.

That's OK! Little bit harder!

Coming out. All clear!

She's gonna make it.

Best Denver omelette I've ever had.

It's your recipe.

Like I said, best Denver omelette I've ever had.

Hey, you're doing a good job. And I don't just mean the cooking.

Thanks.

You know, I know that I didn't make a great first impression around here.

Trust me, I... I know how these guys are.

I was in your shoes not too long ago. And...

There's like this circle of trust.

And you're way on the outside of it.

So, how do I get on the inside?

Don't wait to be invited.

You make the first move. Break the ice.

I got to do a grocery run. Thanks for the advice.

Spit it out, Cruz.

OK.

Herrmann, look.

All due respect, a lot of your big ideas go south.

The discount phone card, the energy water, the limo service.

Yeah. Your point?

- Well, we just feel... - We? Who's we?

- Not me. Not me. - Me and Mouch.

Maybe the whole surprise vasectomy thing is a little...

Not good.

Oh! Are we laying everybody's bad ideas on the table? Is that what we're doing?

Oh! OK, all right. Hang on. Erm, how about you, Mouch?

You do anything stupid, like, I don't know,

wear some red panties that your Internet Japanese girlfriend sent you?

All right! Keep it clean, Herrmann.

You can do what you want.

You're damn right I will!

And you know what? I got the whole extended family coming to Molly's

Saturday night for the anniversary party.

I already have Saturday reserved.

What? You, er... You didn't tell me.

I posted it on the Molly's website.

I have this whole tapas party I'm gonna throw for my extended family.

- Nice. - Molly's has a website?

Hello?

Hey, you got a second?

Hey, er, so, Detective Lindsay just called.

She wants me to come in for questioning.

- OK. - She's cool, right?

She's a friend of yours?

Otis, is there something you wanna tell me?

Cos if so, don't tell me.

- I... I'm just... - Hey, Chief.

Hey. Detective Lindsay get a hold of you? She called the office line earlier.

Yeah, yeah. She, er... She got through. Thanks, Chief.

- This regarding Vince Keeler? - Er, yeah.

Ambulance 61, person down...

- That's ambo. - Ah.

Something going on here I need to know about?

They're interviewing everybody who had

any contact with Keeler before he went missing.

OK.

I just... I...

- Excuse us. Paramedics coming through! - Move out of the way, people!

Let them through! I came out to throw out my trash

and found him stumbling around all shot up like that.

Then he just fell down!

Agonal breathing, pulse is weak and thready.

Let's get him in the ambo.

- 61 to Main. - Go ahead, 61.

Our patient's a gunshot victim. We're gonna need a beat car assigned ASAP.

Copy that, 61.

- Looks like they grazed his ear. - Yeah, he's lucky it wasn't worse.

Main to 61, do you copy?

What's up, Main? We're busy here.

You need to leave the scene immediately.

We're still stabilizing the victim.

But you can let Chicago Med know that we're on our way.

Now, Dawson. I've got you on the street cam. You guys have company.

Hey, hey, hey!

- Main, where's our backup? - Open the door!

A beat car hasn't been assigned yet, Dawson.

I'm activating a 10-1 response to all available CPD in your area.

Now! Open the door, bitch!

Open the door!

Open the door!

Open the damn door.

- Pulse is fading fast! - How long till the cops get here?

Listen to me. You can't wait for the cops. You need to get out of there.

Negative. We need two minutes to keep him from going into cardiac arrest.

You don't have two minutes. 50 yards west of you, the street dead ends

into Karlov Avenue. Dawson, take the rig and make a left. Go now.

- Open up! - Hey, listen, OK?

Listen, this guy's in really bad shape, OK?

Just let us get him bandaged to stop the bleeding, and we'll let him go.

Then we'll be on our way, no questions asked.

- Let him out of the ambulance, first! - OK, whatever you say. Just relax!

- Open the door! - Open the damn door!

Open up!

Open up!

Get in the car!

- Dawson! - Yeah, I see them!

OK, you're approaching an alley. Take the first left before it.

Wait, wait, wait! No, no, no! That's not a street. That leads into a warehouse.

- There's nowhere to go. - Trust me. Go to the loading dock.

Main, are you sure about this?

Thugs will be there in five seconds. Move!

- You take the head. I'll grab an IV. - Got it.

Oh, my God. Now, I know why this guy's so popular.

Lung sounds diminished. He's circling.

OK, I'm gonna use an IO drill.

It's the only way we'll buy enough time to get him to the ER alive.

Dawson, they're coming back.

They're coming.

OK, line's in! Let's get out of here!

Yo!

Drop your weapon! Drop your weapon! Do it now!

Hands out the car! Out the car! Don't move!

Turn around! Turn around! Turn around!

Face down on the hood! Spread them!

Gabriela Dawson. Ninja paramedic.

We owe you a beer.

Hey, we heard. You guys OK?

Just when I thought I'd seen it all.

Hey.

- I'm so glad you are all right. - Thanks.

Yeah. Hey, so listen. On Saturday night,

it's not like I can switch my anniversary date,

so could you move the sangria night, or, you know, whatever you call it?

Tapas. And no, man, I can't.

I've got family coming in from New York specifically for this tasting.

Then you know what? We'll make it a combo party.

This is a joke, right?

No. I'm getting a surprise vasectomy for our 20th anniversary.

And you wanna announce this at Molly's on Saturday

- when my friends and family are there? - Correct.

Not in a million years.

Everybody, I need you in the kitchen.

Er, what's going on here?

Jones has an announcement to make.

Yes. Could I have the guest of honour right here, please?

To commemorate Herrmann's last day of producing sperm.

It'll keep producing sperm. It's just not going to make it to my...

- Oh, boy. - What?

Ugh.

- Yep. - Is that a rocket blasting off?

So I guess the 20th anniversary gift is wood?

Er, you know what, I think we're good here.

And everybody should just, er, get back to work. Come on.

Chief.

I'm, er... I'm heading down to the 21st District.

I notified Casey.

Well, as Shakespeare reminds us,

"Brevity is the soul of wit."

Thank you, Chief.

I'm a little unclear on that one.

Don't get too chatty, Otis.

The night that Katie was abducted,

her phone records show that her last call was to you.

That's right. Yeah.

What was the call about?

We were gonna meet up later.

- So you were dating? - Yeah, yes.

Have you seen Vince Keeler since the blackout?

Yes.

Where did you see him?

It was in front of his house.

Er, I... I drove by.

- Did you talk to him? - No. I just drove by.

- He went missing later that night. - I know. I know.

- Where were you later that night? - I grabbed a beer

and I, erm... I went and I sat on a bench overlooking the lake.

- In March? - I was upset.

Give me a minute.

What do you wanna do?

I wanna know what happened.

All right, I'll kick him for now, then I'll do a full work up on him.

- You wanted to see me, Chief? - Yes, Jones, shut the door.

A formal complaint has been lodged against you.

- What'd I do? - Three guesses.

- The cake? - There you go.

That was a joke.

A joke that I paid for with my own money, by the way.

And Herrmann loved it.

We love a good prank, believe me. That's not the issue.

So what's the issue?

It's about what's appropriate in the workplace.

You thought it was funny, Lieutenant.

You're the one who made the wood comment!

Good point. All yours, Chief.

Technically, you've been accused of creating a hostile work environment.

A hostile... Where's this coming from?

It's an anonymous complaint.

Unfortunately, I have to write up an incident report

and put it in your union file. That'll be all.

Does her dad know?

Yeah, and he wants to see us after shift.

Have a nice day, Rebecca.

Got any big plans today?

- Nope. - Do you need anything, brother?

Because if you do, just let me know.

- Actually, er, I do need something. - Yeah, name it.

I may need you to tell the cops we were hanging out last Wednesday night.

What?

Look, I had nothing to do with Keeler disappearing, OK? Nothing.

But there... There's just no one to vouch for where I was.

Would you, er... Would you do that for me, Joe?

Whatever you need.

Uh...

Hello. Hi.

Er, I'm looking to talk to somebody about the firefighter test?

- Gabriela Dawson, right? - Yeah.

I thought you quit.

Erm, no, didn't quit, just didn't finish the physical test.

I heard you quit.

OK, look, I just need to retake the test.

I heard there was gonna be one next month.

Er, yeah, that class is closed.

You're gonna have to wait until they announce a new class

and apply with them.

But, that could... That could take a year.

- Dennis Fackler. - Pardon.

Three years ago, Dennis Fackler was allowed to recover

from a bronchial infection and he took the test again six weeks later.

- I don't know anything about that. - But Chief Tiberg does.

Because it was under his watch.

These are all my certifications.

I completed all the required firefighter practicals,

which means that I completed my Academy training,

except for the physical.

So, according to the precedent set by Dennis Fackler,

I should be allowed to retake the challenge test with the current class.

And believe me, I will not fail.

Fill this out.

- So, no pain? - Nah, it's kind of a tingle.

But it's permanent. It's the nuclear option.

No sane person could blame you for not wanting another kid.

I'd love to have another kid.

But I love the five we got so much

that I can't imagine taking any more time away from them

to give to someone else.

My heart is full, Mouch.

- You're a lucky guy, Herrmann. - Yeah.

There's nothing like being a dad.

Nothing like it, Mouch.

I heard about Rebecca's stunt yesterday. I wish I could say I was surprised.

She's new. Just trying to fit in with the guys.

- We get where this is coming from. - That's very charitable.

If this is about the IR against her, we didn't have a choice.

- When a complaint is filed, we... - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Look, our PR director is leaving.

When he's gone, Rebecca will have a nice job waiting for her here.

Chief, she's no problem at 51. We're all really glad that she's there.

Would you want your only daughter to be a firefighter?

She wanted to go to the Academy, get on a truck.

She's been to the Academy. She's been on a truck. But we're done now.

- When is she being transferred? - Next month.

And I need your help. You need to DQ her.

Use the cake, use whatever, but give her the boot.

She won't transfer if it comes from me.

- Isn't this a decision she should make? - Not really.

I really think if you give her some time...

Look, I'll say it one more time. She's moving over to Headquarters.

- Here. - Not on the table.

No liquids. If I spill anything on one of these forms, I'm screwed.

OK. Is this OK, or farther?

That's fine.

You have to write an essay?

Er, yeah, my second one so far.

I can get you into this physical with one phone call.

- How? - I got an in with Jones' dad.

- Why? - OK.

This did not come from me. Wow, look at you. Gossip.

- Give me the gossip. - Shut up. Tell me. Tell me.

He wants her out. He's got some PR gig lined up.

- Does she want that? - Who knows?

Me and Boden have to find a way to ding her.

Will you?

I'm not going down this road again.

Honestly, I thought you'd be happy to hear that she's leaving.

What, by forcing her behind a desk?

Do not tell her. This is between her and her dad.

Did you? Let me see.

Yeah, I do. Seriously.

- Hey. - Hey, Pop.

You've got to try this. It's craziness. It's a fish called crappie.

And, er, I've already made all the jokes.

Any more on the Keeler of it all?

I'm good.

But now, they're looking at Otis.

What? Give me a break with that. Otis, seriously?

I mean, in a multi-player video game maybe he'd kill someone.

- It's ridiculous! - Yeah, well, still.

He ain't telling them anything they wanna hear.

No. Just tell him to keep his mouth shut from here on out.

Oh. This fish is unbelievable.

Is that for real? You actually go out on a lake and you cut a hole and you fish?

Like, what's the... What's the trick?

You just dress warm and don't get bored?

Never go out alone.

Bad things can happen if you get caught out in the wild alone.

I need a pillow.

Here you go, sweetie. Right there.

OK. OK.

Er, Cindy must have noticed something.

Yeah, I told her I got hit in the nuts by some kid at a safety demonstration.

I thought it was pain-free.

Er, yeah. You know, in doing a little Internet research last night,

I... I guess there is a significant percentage of vasectomy patients

who experience pain.

You got to tell her. Right now. Don't wait for Saturday.

Nah. I come this far.

Herrmann, I'm asking you nicely.

Please let me have Molly's. Please.

I'm telling you, unexpected combo party.

You bring the peanut butter, I got the chocolate. Boom!

Peanut butter cups! Oh!

OK, all right. Well, what am I in for exactly?

Did the urologist record the procedure and you're gonna, like,

put it up on the flat screens?

I got it all worked out. It's gonna be fine.

- Bad idea. - Shut it, Mouch.

Two shifts and already I got a stain on my record.

- Did you go back in? - To Boden? No, I was waiting for him...

No. No, don't wait. Oh. OK, this is what you got to do.

And I'm gonna be very specific

cos I think I was a little too vague last time.

And that went a little south on us.

- OK. - OK.

Stand there, look him in the eye, take full responsibility,

and tell him that it will never happen again.

OK? No excuses, no nothing. Just take the hit.

I've been on that carpet, and believe me, this is what he responds to.

- Thanks. - Sure.

What can I do for you?

- Is Sergeant Voight here? - No, he's out.

May I borrow your pen, please?

Would you please tell him that, er,

Benny Severide would like to talk to him,

and that, er, he can reach me at this number?

You got it.

Hey!

Up here! We're stuck!

Jones, Herrmann, Otis, Cruz with me!

Severide, check the bottom floor for damage.

Thank God, you're here. The stairwell just fell apart.

- We'll get you down. - There's another guy.

He was in the stairwell when it collapsed.

Down there.

Hey, can you hear me?

We've got to work fast. There's a victim trapped on a column that looks weak.

All right, should we get the rope system up?

No time. There's no anchor point.

I'll lower one of you down. And we'll secure him with webbing.

Lieutenant, send me down. That's at least 30 pounds less you have to bear.

All right.

Herrmann, Otis, take these guys down the aerial.

OK, stop. Hold it there.

Casey, a little more.

OK, hold it there.

Be ready when this guy comes down. Clear a path to get him out.

OK. I've transferred the victim to your rope, Lieutenant.

When I cut his clothes free, you can lower him down.

Jones, stay on the rope. It's too dangerous.

Look, this guy's circling the drain.

He can go first. I'll hang around for the next ride.

OK, let him down, Casey.

Severide, he's coming your way.

Watch it.

Watch it now.

All right. We got him.

Jones!

Jones! Status.

I'm OK, Chief.

Building's a little wobbly. It's still coming apart.

OK, hold your position. We're gonna send in a RIT team.

OK, stop it there. I can reach it.

Jones! You all right?

Yeah!

Steady, Jones.

Take your time.

I'm back on the rope.

All right, Casey. Get me out of here.

Easy.

Watch it.

We got her.

I grew up wanting nothing else in my life but this job.

And now that I'm actually doing it, it's better than I imagined.

I don't wanna compromise my future here.

So I hope that you will both accept my sincere apology

for my inappropriate behaviour. It won't happen again.

Very good, Jones.

Oh.

Are we really gonna do this?

Her father is Deputy District Chief.

He could make me work in PR if he wanted to.

This is gonna be like killing Bambi.

You have his office number.

You are welcome to give him a call if you like.

So, what now?

Go home.

Just do me a favour.

Stay out of Chicago for a while, OK?

OK.

You're a good dad, Benny.

OK, great. Thank you. Bye!

Babe, I got in! I'm gonna take the physical with the current class!

- Congrats, babe. - Thanks, babe.

Oh, I turned those request forms in just in time, right?

Hell, yeah, you did.

Did... Did you call Jones' dad?

- I did. - Why?

Because you're my girl.

I love you and I didn't want you to get boned on this over some red tape.

That's hot.

Close your eyes. No peeking. Come on.

Don't peek.

Happy anniversary!

OK.

Oh, no, no, no, no! Not the cake. Not the cake.

That train has already left the station, baby.

Hey, ladies, gents, can I have your attention for a sec?

Erm, Cindy,

thanks for the 20 best years a guy could ever ask for.

- Aw! - Thank you, sweetheart.

And to mark this day,

I wanted to do something special for you.

And for us.

So...

I got a vasectomy!

How'd I get so lucky?

What the...

Never a doubt. Never a doubt!

What part of the cake did you get?

Mmm, I think the epididymis. You?

Corpus spongiosum.

First time I've ever had that in my mouth.

- Oh, yeah? How is it? - Eh.

- Gabriela Dawson. - Mmm.

- Ninja paramedic. - Oh! You must be Main.

Ramsey. Victor Ramsey.

Wow. It's nice to put a face to the voice.

- I'm here for that beer you owe me. - Oh! Right.

Yeah, I... I'll get it for you.

I never got a chance to say, welcome back to ambo.

I didn't see you for a while.

Yeah, you know what, I'm sorry. We're really swamped tonight.

It's so nice to meet you. Er... And we'll talk later. Bye.

Hey. So, good news.

Erm, Lindsay called. I guess both of our alibis checked out.

And they've exhausted all of the leads, so it's now a missing persons case.

- Cool. - Is it?

Cos, you know, that means Keeler's still out there somewhere.

He ain't out there any more, Otis.
