Previously on fire country... I
need someone to come with me.

I'm with you.

And I want to know

if there's room here for me to grow.

Are you not growing?

Luke, hey.

When did you know it
was time to leave 42?

So should we just skip
straight to the wedding?

Finn just texted me five times.

"So you got your photos,
now you're done with me?

My time's valuable.
Thanks for wasting it."

Sharon, she made a deal. Got
the company to pay for cleanup

and got the doc to release me early.

So the doc and the company
admitted negligence?

Signed an nda.

Manny isn't free. Silencing
him is just another form of prison.

Come on, you cannot be this naive.

Renée Hoffman. I'm a lawyer.

One who's very interested in that deal

that your mom just made.

I'm looking to build a class action lawsuit

to get justice.

This could bring oxalta down.

And you're sure this is a good idea?

Renée said oxalta had
eyes and ears everywhere.

Someone needs to stand
up to them, so, yeah, I'm sure.

It's all right, let's go.

This is a numbers game.

Manny flipping on his
nda helps us out a lot, but...

And you're sure they can't
send him back to prison for that?

Yes, I'm sure. The doc
released him, not oxalta.

But he's still breaking an
nda. Can't they sue him?

One broken nda is not gonna make

oxalta blink. We need
everyone at three rock to flip.

'Cause together, me and
Manny can get all of them.

And if they join our class action suit,

that'll make oxalta scared,

and they'll offer a big lump
sum of money. No court.

People will see it as
an admission of guilt.

So, from here on out, the
public and the government

will watch oxalta like a hawk.

So, they'll have to
dispose their chemicals

and their waste the right way.

And they won't get away
with killing another birch.

Don't forget, my folks can't
know anything about this.

Three rock is expecting us in two hours,

so I will see you there.

It's gonna be okay, mija.

Whoa. What are, what are you doing?

Just filling in at 42 for some
loser who got suspended

for not following orders.

Wait, that was you.

No. I mean what are you doing
making a mess in my station?

You know what? Remind me
to never let you pack the trunk

if we ever go on a road trip. Okay.

You know what? Doesn't matter.

It's my last day here anyways.

Well, my days may also be numbered.

No way. What, are you leaving?

Well, I got another job offer in butte.

It's for a captain's position,

but the battalion chief is going
to be retiring within the year.

Yo, that's great. Especially for me.

I'll-I'll take over your apartment.

Okay, well, one, bode still lives there.

Okay. And two, I haven't accepted it yet.

Okay, so what's the holdup?

'Cause it's a guaranteed promotion.

Butte's just a county over,
so you can always come visit.

Okay.

Can I be real with you?

On paper, butte totally makes sense.

But leaving 42...

It's been home to me,
and... Vince is like a dad.

So talk to him.

Talk to him.

Look, I know he'll be sad to lose you,

but he'll be happy for you.

I have good news.

The department just approved

an extra week's vacation for us.

We're really gonna get
to hitch up that airstream

and hit the open road.

So then, for one month,
we got... check it out.

We got fly-fishing in the deschutes.

We have, a concert at
the Columbia river gorge.

We got a bavarian town.

We've got rv-friendly wineries.

We've got spas. We've
got massages. Hold on.

Thought you said you
hated spas and massages.

I do, but you like it when I
give stuff another shot, so...

My god, if you think that all of this

is gonna help you get
lucky in an airstream,

you're a very wise man.

You know, I'm really glad

that you guys are finally taking
that trip 'cause you deserve it.

That way, I won't have to see this.

All this all the time.

Sorry.

What are you doing here?

Who's he?

Merriweather.

Chief counsel for the oxalta corporation.

And I'm here because of you.

Good morning.

Is Finn still texting you?

No. I did what you said.

Didn't engage and
stopped opening his texts.

And he stopped?

I guess he got over it.

Or he got embarrassed.

What do you think of bode

and my dad taking on oxalta?

Oxalta's a Goliath.
It's kind of scary, right?

It's risky.

But it's also brave and right.

What does bode have
to do with any of this?

Kids. Always keeping
secrets from their parents.

Mom, you know I wouldn't
do this if it wasn't important.

He's trying to organize all
the three rock inmates to flip

on their ndas.

You know, to overturn the deal

you made with oxalta.

He what?

Are you spying on me? His lawyer thinks

if they can get the
number of plaintiffs up,

we'll offer a better deal,

but you know what number
I find interesting? Three.

The number of payments
you're behind on this bar.

Or... What about 7,200?

The monthly bill for your granddad's

- comfy memory care home.
- All right.

I don't think I like where
you're going, friend.

It would be a shame if my
company forced the bank

to foreclose on this place.

We have a long-standing relationship.

So you understand the
solution I'm proposing

Norma rae here drops the whole thing,

or I make the walls cave in.

You're coming after my family?
You're coming after my company.

- Your company killed people.
- Bode.

Stop. You want to hit me?

Please, punch me.

That would make my day.

Sending you back to prison
will be icing on the cake.

Come on.

That's what I thought.

You went behind my back?

You know how I felt. Oxalta
needs to pay for what they did.

Yeah, but now it looks like
we're gonna be the ones who pay

because oxalta will ruin us.

I can fix this. Okay?

When something's
broken, that's what I do.

Then you just have
to drop this nonsense.

That's it. Be happy with what we got

and then go mend
fences with merriweather.

With the literal enemy? No.

Bode, come on. You got
to, you got to think about this.

No, we-we don't give in to
bullies. We don't empower them.

You taught me that.

Our son thinks he's invincible.

If he had punched that guy, if
we hadn't been standing here,

he'd be going back to jail right now.

Yeah, but we were here, and
we're gonna keep being here.

Really? Because we said we
were not gonna over-parent.

Share, this is different.
Okay, it's our house

and our bar and... my dad.

Okay, so then we-we
clean this up for him.

We save him again, and
he never learns this lesson

because we never let him fail.

If he fails this time, we lose.

Right. Okay.

So then, we-we-we have
to shore up our finances.

We... maybe we have
to sell the airstream.

I don't know. I don't know.
We have to do something

because bode has
just left us so wide open.

I'll go make some calls.

My family's house, our business,

- my grandfather.
- Bode, hold up, man.

You don't have to do this.
We can take it from here.

No, no, no.

Th-the guys will listen to
me because I'm one of them.

I am, too.

Look, we understand if
you want to back out, bode.

We can win, but oxalta's slippery.

I mean, they spy, they harass.

They're going to make it hurt

for you and your family.

That risk is real.

No. No.

No. This is how we win.

Okay? Me and Manny,
together. Nothing's changed that.

But what has changed is oxalta

coming after everything
your parents have.

That's why I can't quit.
They threatened my family.

If they threaten Gabriela,
are you just gonna go belly up?

No.

No, I can't do that.

I would fight.

Call in the guys.

Okay.

No. That's not what I said.

I'm... i'm-I'm not, I'm not
saying I can't pay, all right?

I'm just trying to...
Well, I'm just saying,

hypothetically, if,

if I did miss a payment,
how long can my dad stay?

I mean, you're not gonna...

You're not gonna put
him out on the sidewalk

with the garbage and
the recycling, right?

Y... no. No. I don't want
a call back... come on.

Hey. You got something
for me? What's up?

You know, you seem
kind of busy, so, I can wait.

Jake.

Spit it out.

Okay. Yeah.

I got a job offer from butte.

It's another captain's position,

but the chief is gonna be retiring soon.

I mean, it'd be a great place
for me to climb up the ladder.

But-but, Vince, I-I just... look,

I need you to know
how much I appreciate

everything that you've done for me here.

This is what you wanted, right?

Right? This is what you wanted?

This is what you've been working for.

I mean... it's a good thing.

Congrats.

So Vince didn't try to
convince you to stay?

Nope. He congratulated me.

Well, that's what you wanted, yeah?

'Cause now you can
start the new gig guilt-free.

Yeah. Yeah, you're right.

Unless, deep down, maybe you

wanted the job offer so that
Vince could beg you to stay?

Come on, Eve. I'm-I'm not that needy.

I didn't say you were needy,
but, you know, you have needs.

To be seen. Appreciated.

Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, would it, would it kill him

to thank me for years of service?

Or-or to tell me that he
would miss riding with me?

Or even just sleeping
under the same roof

at the station?

How'd you get so wise?

You know, mostly my job at three rock is

mentoring macho dudes
who are afraid of their feelings,

and, yeah, you're textbook, bro.

Smell that, cap?

It smells metallic-y.

Smells like burnt eggs.

It's kind of like pennies
crushing on a train track

or something.

Pan on the stove.

You knew that from the smell?

And you will, too, in time, probie.

All right, Jake, you and the probie

grab extinguishers.
You're on attack team one.

Gabriela, Eve, run an
inch-and-three-quarter line

to the front door. You're on backup.

- Copy, chief.
- Copy that.

Go!

Damn, it really was a pan on the stove.

And last week, when I left
three rock, I had my freedom.

Oxalta had my signature,
and it felt good, man.

At first.

Except then I started to think
about something that I learned

here at three rock.

Something that we all
learn about every day.

Accountability.

And you know who doesn't
have any accountability? Oxalta.

They think all their money just lets them

get away with anything.

And your silence is what
lets them just poison people

left and right, like birch.

Which is why I'm saying
"screw it" to my nda.

Because I want to do the right thing,

- and I know you boys do, too.
- Yo.

This company thinks they can buy us off

just 'cause we're locked up.

Screw those guys, man.
I say we take them down.

Come on.

All right, there's only one thing left.

Are you with me?

- One. Two...
- I can't.

I talked to my wife this morning.

And some merriweather guy from oxalta

showed up at my house last night.

He said I need to keep quiet, or else.

And, look, they're
just trying to scare you.

Well, it's working.

Bode.

He knew my kids' names.

Cole, I'm-I'm sorry.

It's just different for you
and Manny. You're out.

If they came for your people,

you could actually do something about it,

but us in here, we're just...

Bro, we are powerless.

That's why we all got to do this together,

to stop them. Bro, I am so close

to getting out for my kids.

I can't do it.

Not if oxalta's gonna
be threatening my family.

I'm sorry, bode.

Look.

My mom's been through enough.

And now they're gonna harass her?

Because of me?

Yeah, I'm gonna need
my phone privileges.

I... I got to call my wife.

So what now?

The cans aren't working.
We need water in asap.

The extinguishers just
don't have enough power

to knock down the rapidly growing fire.

The fire is blocking access
to the rest of the house.

We need to knock it down
so we can go and search

for anybody else inside.

Coming through!

All right, good work, good work.

Hey. Edwards, with me for search.

Perez, you guys knock
those spot fires out

and check for any extension.

All right, is there anybody here?

Call out!

Back here. Help.

Here.

Body, body, body.

Finn?

Jake? Wait, station 42's here?

Yeah. We're here.

We're, we're gonna get you out of here.

All right, bud. Where does it hurt?

My-my back. It just locked up. I

I had a pot on the
stove, but it hurt too much

to crawl back to even shut it off.

Okay.

We got to protect his spine.

Perez, I need you to come
in here with a clams hell.

To the bedroom, Charlie side, asap.

Copy. Wait. Gabriela? No. No, please.

Can you guys just help me out?

I don't want her to
see me like this, okay?

Well, whatever's going
on with you personally,

she's a paramedic. This is her job.

I brought the clams hell. Finn?

Hi. Hi.

Coming after inmates and their kids,

I-I can't blame the guys for backing off.

Yeah, I get it, too, man.

If oxalta threatened Gabriela, I'm free,

I can fight to protect her.

If I was still locked
up, be a different story.

We can still turn this around.

Not with oxalta

coming after these guys' families.

So, we tell them what this
amount of money can do

for their families.

I mean, I've seen this before.

Yeah, but not with guys like this.

They won't budge.

And I'm-I'm not ready
to... To give up, but...

Good.

But we can't ask these
guys to keep going

if we can't guarantee
safety for their families.

So where does this leave us?

Nowhere.

It leaves us nowhere.

Hey, Perez.

Got it from here? Yeah.

All right, the fire's almost out, and,

I'm gonna get a tic for overhaul.

All right.

I owe you an apology.

For accusing me

of using you to get
photography services for free?

Yeah.

People don't take into account
the time that goes into my art,

the... the heart, the dedication.

I'm not those people.

So let's focus on getting you well.

I am sorry.

It's no excuse, but,

I was trying to make sense
of you breaking things off,

especially after one very good kiss.

That was one very good kiss.

Then...

You don't owe me an
explanation, but I'm stumped.

I owe you an apology, too.

I should've explained.

I'd just gotten out of this long-term thing

that wasn't right for me.

We have that in common,

which is one of the many
reasons why I was so excited

about the possibility of us.

Maybe... too excited.

I was ready for casual, slow.

Finn, you said the word "wedding."

Yeah. I hear it now.

Perez, how's the patient?

Wait a minute, is that... Is that Finn?

I know, 42 and I have to
stop meeting like this, chief.

Appears to be acute
back pain and spasms.

Patient's stable and ready to transport.

All right, good. Get going.

You don't have to do that.

Ride with me.

It's kind of my job.

And you kind of miss my face already?

Ready to go, wagener. You got it.

Here we go!

So even with the new
upholstery, that's your best offer?

Just sunk so much money
into this airstream lately.

No. It's-it's fine.

Yeah, I'll just, I'll give you a call

if we decide to sell it anyway.

Okay, thank you.

So, it turns out

your father and I own
almost nothing of value,

except the things that oxalta's
threatening to take away.

Mom, I'm... I'm sorry
that it's gone this far.

I thought that our plan would work.

Oxalta heard about our case

and somehow they're...

They're putting the squeeze on the guys.

God. At three rock.

Nobody's flipping on their ndas now.

So Renée's case is D.O.A.?

But oxalta's threats aren't.

That's-that's on me.

You know that I-I want to
fix this. That's all I want to do.

I'm trying, but I'm running out of ideas.

What do I do?

You have to just let this be a lesson now.

You just have to learn from this.

That's the only thing
that I can tell you to do.

I was sure that I was
doing the right thing.

So was I.

It's weird, right?

That we're in Finn's house?
What are the chances?

In edge water? High. Small town.

I can't tell you how many
times I've fought a fire

at a house of someone I knew,

had beef with, crushed on.

That smoke, however...

That's weird. Possible extension.

James, check for fire
movement in the walls.

Here. Smoke here means

there's fire below? Hope not.

It's possible the fire
traveled from the kitchen

to the basement in an a-frame house.

We need to figure out what's going on.

Vitals look good.

You said you were ready to go slow.

Yes.

You were or still are?

'Cause I can do slow.

For you, I can go slow all day long.

James and I are changing locations.

Smoke seems to be coming from below.

They're going downstairs?

Hey, relax.

42's got this.

Yeah.

Cap.

Yep. That's it.

Who padlocks a basement door?

And down we go.

There's fire.

Yeah, fire's spread downstairs.

Lots of chemicals down here.

Fuel is fuel.

Just keep moving. Knock it down.

James, get on it. I said let's move.

Cap, look.

Fire's not the only scary thing down here.

Finn's been following Gabriela.

Cover me.

Hey, chief.

Switch to backup channel.

Go ahead.

Chief, we found evidence that indicates

Finn is a danger to Gabriela's safety.

Where is she?

She left in the ambulance
with him about five minutes ago.

Well, you need to get
her out of that ambulance

and away from him now.

Should be catching up to
them here in a second. Jake,

how dangerous we talking?

Yeah, chief, he's got
a lot of photos of her.

I mean, I'm talking dozens.

It's like he's been tracking her.

Stalking is more accurate.

Yeah. And based off the
fire's pattern, it looks like

he started it himself.

Hurry!

You looking for your partner in crime?

He left already.

So, I guess you're
pretty upset with me, too?

Look, chief... I could
never properly thank you

for everything that you've done for me.

You and my son have
a-a really funny way

of saying thank you.

That oxalta deal changed
my life. It just wasn't enough.

It was what I got, Manny.

It was, it was what I got for you.

And I'm grateful for that. I'm
really proud of it, you know, and...

Until my idealistic son comes in there

and decides he's gonna do better.

Yeah, well, we owe better to
the guys at three rock. Come on.

Well, we had to try, so we could
sleep at night. I already tried!

I know you tried. I know you
did, but now I realize, okay?

I realize that we got to
throw in the damn towel.

Look, I'm not arguing with you,

but we can never
apologize to merriweather,

even if we wanted to.

They won't meet with bode,

not after what happened this morning.

Yeah, of course he won't.
A-And why would he?

You know... When
Gabriela was in a bad way

nothing felt better than when I finally

actually got to help her.

What're you saying?

Merriweather won't meet with us,

but he will meet with you.

No. Sharon, you could help us.

No. No. I am trying
to teach him a lesson,

come on, about consequences.

Bode's learned his lesson. You did that.

Now put an end to this, chief.

For your own good.

Your heart rate's a bit
elevated. Is it the pain?

A little bit.

How much longer until
we're at the hospital?

Just a few more minutes.

Do you want some more pain meds? No.

No... I wouldn't want to overdo it.

Okay. All right, then,

let's just try and take some
deep, calming breaths, yeah?

Ready? Okay. Yeah.

Again. Slow.

That helps.

Good.

Wagener, pull the ambulance over.

No, no, no. We-we
need to get to the hospital.

- Chief, everything okay?
- I'm behind you.

Why are you following us?

Pull over now.

I can see your lights.

Stop the ambulance.

Whatever he's about
to tell you, it's a lie.

I can explain everything.

Pull over!

We have to go now.

Did...

Did you start that fire to bring me to you?

It wasn't supposed to
spread past the kitchen.

I-I needed you to
understand what happened,

to see you again.

- Isn't that romantic?
- Vince?

I need you in here now.

Chief!

Finn, he's... Yeah,
he's dangerous, I know.

He took a scalpel with him as a weapon.

You're safe now. Sheriff's on her way.

And now, he's on the loose.

I'm ready to clean up my son's mess.

I'm listening.

Neither bode nor I like
what oxalta has been doing.

Threatening innocent people

and coming after families.

We-we need to come to an agreement

where all of that would stop.

Now you're quiet.

But you're on board with
your mom's proposal?

Our family is completely
committed to protecting lives,

particularly those who
cannot take care of themselves.

So if bode stops his little
crusade to expose oxalta,

you and I can go back to
our original deal? It all ends?

Yes.

No more threatening us, no more scaring

three rock, all of it has to stop.

As long as he does, too.

Looks like we have a deal.

Looks can be deceiving.

Cap, I'm inside.

Working on getting a hose to you.

All right, you need to make it quick.

I don't know how much longer I can keep

these flames away
from the photo chemicals.

It might be too late.

It is. Retreat! Let's go!

Cap? James.

James! You okay? Yeah.

I think so.

Seat of the flames, let's go!

All right. With me.

You guys okay?

Been better, cap.

Look, I'm gonna get her out of here,

then I'll be back for overhaul. Okay.

- Copy.
- All right.

Hey, Jake?

Yeah?

Yeah, I know.

Finn's been stalking her.

Hoffman, who invited you?

We did.

We?

Yeah, everything that you just said

about oxalta's illegal activities

I have here on my phone,
which just went to the cloud,

and now, should be in Renée's inbox.

Look. There it is.

Threats. Coercion.

Intimidation.

What kind of bush league move is this?

It's not admissible in court.

Court of public opinion will do its thing.

Meaning take you down.

Yeah, and we're gonna
share this with the local news.

Let's go national, and...

We can probably put it on YouTube,

and you can put it on socials, son.

Yeah, got to keep the kids engaged.

You want to punch me, merriweather?

Go ahead.

Be icing on the cake.

Hey.

You may not want to
see whatever's in there.

Respectfully, chief,

my crew's on overhaul,
and I'm here to work.

Hey, gabs, you don't have to be here.

That's me this morning.

We thought oxalta was watching us.

It was Finn.

Next time we go on a road
trip, I will let you pack the trunk.

Aw, I'm honored. Well...

Well, you want to talk
about coming in clutch?

You, sir, deserve the game ball.

Well, thank you, but

players don't award the game ball.

Coach does.

Look, bud, I'm-a need you
to stop lighting fires just to get

the chief's attention. Okay?

That's like some kid Jake stuff.

No.

You're grown.

We're grown.

And you say you want
to make moves, right?

Then make moves.

You want the job at
butte? Take the job at butte.

Or maybe you do just
want to stay here. Look,

whatever you want
to do, I'm proud of you.

Look at you being all soft.

I was just trying to be nice.
And I'm-a stop being nice

if you don't make your move.

We want to stress
that Bruce merriweather

who is now dismissed

was in no way operating
under oxalta's orders.

Still lying. Well, that's
what corporations do.

And merriweather deserves
to be thrown under the bus.

And oxalta still has
to clean everything up.

Damn. It's already all over
social media. Look at that.

Oxalta won't be able
to drop a gum wrapper

without being reported.

Love to hear it.

Next up, we got to figure
out how to get you back

into a Cal fire uniform.

Yeah, that's gonna be tough.

On top of re-certifying,

my track record's
gonna raise a few flags.

Taking down oxalta was impossible.

I think Manny Perez can handle "tough."

I have faith.

Still got that phone
number she gave you?

You know who I need to call?

Three rock. Let them
know the good news.

We did it. We did.

I couldn't have done it without you...

Yeah, this morning,

you two were about
to go to fisticuffs. Yeah.

We were right till five minutes ago.

Then he apologized.

And so did she.

Yeah, and then we just, you know,

we bounced some ideas around
and came up with a game plan.

Decided to dabble in a legal gray area.

Well, I said it was risky.

But mom, you know, she just,

she thinks she's invincible.

What happened to not getting involved?

Not over-parenting?

Well, our kids are still
gonna have problems, right?

They still have needs, and

I probably just should've helped him

work it out from the beginning,

you know? Adult to adult.

All right, I got a couple of guys

that want to say thank
you. Come on, y'all.

Yo, you're the man, o.G.

Hey. ¿Qué onda, amigos?

Manny! That means
my kids are okay, right?

Hell yeah, man, oxalta's finished.

Paying out their original settlements.

And they're cleaning up the water.

Which means we're officially
back in business, boys!

That's right, baby.

When Luke and I were coming
up, my dad used to celebrate

our victories with his best whiskey.

So top shelf.

I didn't accept the job.

Okay.

Why not?

You want to talk about it?

What, now you don't?

Look, I-I-I was afraid to bring it up.

I mean...

With everything that's
gone down between us,

I wasn't sure... Where I stood with you.

And.

I mean, that-that matters to me, Vince.

Brought this with me.

You know what that is, that's...

The picture I keep in my helmet.

The people I come home for.

That's my family.

Of course, I want you at 42 forever.

I watched you grow up
there from a kid into a

damn good firefighter... Captain.

But, Jake, there's...

There's no promotion at 42 right now.

Not sure when there's gonna be.

But there is in butte.

Well, then, chief, I.

I guess this is my two weeks' notice.

I'm proud of you.

And it has been a
pleasure the whole way.

I love you, son.

He set his own house
on fire to get to me.

He knows where I live,
he knows where I work.

And now he's out there somewhere?

Hey, at least he's got good taste.

Audrey, I thought I had good instincts.

I almost dated him.

I-I kissed him.

You can't blame yourself.

The really dangerous
ones... They're good.

They get in there.

Incoming.

Hey, dad.

Vince told me about Finn.

That dude spoke to me

while he was stalking my daughter?

Hell no.

Absolutely not.

You know, at first, I
was grateful to be out.

But now I'm relieved.

Because I will never let anyone hurt you.

Dad, I'm not a kid anymore.

You can't protect me all the time.

Well, then we need to be smart.

Where is it?

Your gun, Gabriela.
