You know, when you were gone, I wanted to reach out.

You know, it was good to have the time to myself,

but you can always reach out.

Sam, I should have told you the truth,

but that's the hardest thing to do.

When I was still at 27, I rescued a four-year-old

girl from a house fire.

It was Natalie.

My sister and her boyfriend

told me they don't want me there.

I thought, you saved me once. You would it again.

You're the man who killed my wife.

You're not gonna get away with it!

The victim's Robert Franklin.

Does Van Meter know about my connection to the victim?

No, I didn't see how it was relevant.

I hate to say it, but I think we have to assume

the perpetrator is one of our own.

Look into Pascal and his boss, Hendricks.

You knew Hendricks was dirty and you still went

to work for him after that.

No one ever found out I was working Hendricks on my own.

Unless someone can corroborate what you were up to.

I don't know what OFI's looking into here.

The man is honorable to a fault.

Detective will be right with you.

Sorry for the hold up.

I am Detective Gerard.

I wanna thank you for coming down like this, sir.

This how you treat a decorated battalion chief...

perp walking him in front of his people,

in front of the whole damn city?

They shouldn't have.

That is no way to treat a fellow civil servant.

Why don't you take a seat?

I got you a cup of coffee.

Am I under arrest here?

No.

That's the last thing anybody in this building wants.

Folks around here, they got a lot of respect for you.

But you see, here's my problem.

Somebody tried to kill Robert Franklin,

and there's evidence that points in your direction.

So...

I'm not talking until I speak to a lawyer.

Oh.

That's a shame.

'Cause I could really use your help on this case.

I mean, I keep looking through it,

trying to game up another suspect,

and frankly, I can't find one.

I mean, the guy, he killed your wife.

Of course you'd be angry, right?

And actually, I know you were,

'cause I got a written statement

from Franklin's lawyer that says that you threatened him

in public outside of ASA's office.

And then it doesn't help that this is an arson case

and that the instrument used to sabotage Franklin's car

was CFD-issued, which makes things, for you, problematic.

And even if I could explain away both of those,

I mean, this last one... well.

It's kind of tough, wouldn't you say?

You see, these were taken

from Robert Franklin's doorbell camera.

That's your Bronco parked outside of his house

on three different occasions.

What were you doing there, Chief?

You know what it looks like to me?

Looks like you were gathering information...

on his car,

on his schedule.

I mean, why else would you be there, right?

Do you know what I think when I see all of this?

I think you're gonna need one hell of a lawyer.

Your sister said she's good with you

staying a couple nights, so it really is up to you.

I'm sure she did.

Her and Danny would be so happy if I never came back.

Well, we are happy to have you.

Thanks. I really appreciate it.

The longer I stay away from there, the better.

I gotta get to school.

We can give you a ride.

No, it's okay. It's a short bus ride.

See you later.

That poor kid.

It doesn't seem like anyone in her family

cares where she goes, what she does.

And being lonely at that age?

I remember it. It, um...

sucks.

I'm glad she can stay here a couple days

while she cools off from that trip to her mom's.

Yeah.

You said you wanted to leave early to talk to Pascal.

Okay. I'm sorry. Okay?

I'll get ready super quick.

Oh, will you get that?

Maybe Natalie forgot something.

Yeah.

Captain?

You weren't honest with me about the Franklin arson investigation.

I didn't lie about anything.

I just didn't bring up the Pascal connection

until I had some real information.

You're playing a dangerous game.

I'm not playing any games.

You covered for him.

And if he did the crime, you're an accessory

to attempted murder after the fact.

You have to know at this point, if Pascal goes down,

you're going with him.

The cops just marched him out of here in front of all of us.

It was... it was awful.

But he's not charged with anything?

Not yet.

He lawyered up and got out of there.

PD and OFI are deep diving.

How's the victim?

Still in critical, burned about 30% of his body.

Where is Chief now?

Locked in his office with Severide.

According to OFI, there's no other suspect

in the Franklin case right now.

This is coming from Van Meter?

I told him that I thought you were being framed,

but he's questioning my judgment.

Sorry I dragged you into all this.

I'm not.

You need someone in your corner.

And Van Meter doesn't know what I know.

Which is what?

Lieutenant Vale confirmed your story about Miami,

about how Chief Hendricks is dirty

and you were coming after him.

- Really? - Yeah.

Vale said he'd even testify to it.

You're lucky Monica told him.

So if PD or OFI is looking into my connection

with Hendricks...

You've got a defense.

I also think it got us a suspect.

I thought you cleared Bishop.

Not Bishop. Hendricks.

We know he's dirty.

We know you tried to take him down.

Well, Hendricks didn't know I was trying

to build a case against him.

He didn't know then, but what if he found out?

What if somebody tipped him off?

So what, you think Hendricks

orchestrates this from behind bars?

I don't know. You knew the guy. Tell me.

What would he do if he found out

you were trying to come after him?

He'd do something like this.

Good work, Lieutenant.

Well, we still gotta prove it.

How can I help?

Well, better now to just lay low.

I'll see what I can find out.

All right. Where are you gonna start?

I got a pretty good idea.

Hey, Tony, we just had a call to Tanya,

the frequent flier who has a thing for you.

Oh, yeah? How's she doing?

Uh, still convinced she has a spy cam in her brain,

but otherwise, good.

- Vitals are normal. - Good. Good.

- Hey there. - Hi.

You guys have been busy.

Yeah, back-to-backs.

Hmm.

I've been meaning to tell you, I'm...

I'm glad that you're done with outpatient treatment

and that you're back full-time.

Yeah.

Uh, outpatient treatment is done.

Um, feels good.

Thanks.

Last shift, Pascal wished me luck

on the Chief's exam tomorrow.

That was weird.

Much as this was the plan,

it's gonna be hard to see him go.

I don't want it to be with a dark cloud

hanging over him, either.

Yeah. I just hope he gets his name cleared, and soon.

Engine 51, Truck 81, Ambulance 61, structure fire.

315 Regent Street.

Mikami, get me an EMS Plan 1 and set up triage.

Copy.

Fire started back near the range.

Not everybody got out.

Did it get to the ammunition yet?

No. It's behind the far counter.

51, run a hose line.

Keep the fire off the ammo.

All right. Copy that.

Hey, 51, let's move it.

81, you're with me. Search and rescue.

If that ammo ignites, stay low.

Follow me.

Move out.

Fire department, call out!

Hey, Chief!

Ammo!

Get down!

Keep cover! Stay low!

Ahh!

Please help me!

Ritter, Carver, let's go! Stay low!

Give me some line!

We got you!

You're gonna be okay!

Hey, I need water!

All right, on three!

One, two, three!

Stay down!

There are more people near the gun range.

Chief!

We got multiple victims in the gun range!

Copy that! Get your victim clear!

Copy!

Let's go!

We're gonna get you out!

We gotta find them some cover!

- Through the door! - Copy that!

Hold tight!

Keep tight!

Come on!

Get low, over here!

Ready!

Let's go!

Stay low. Keep moving.

Move away from the area. Go!

Medic.

Engine 51, victims are clear.

Back out, and let's go defensive.

Copy that!

Didn't expect to see you back here, Lieutenant,

after I told you the truth about your pal, Dom.

You were wrong about Miami, Bishop.

Pascal was working Hendricks,

getting evidence to be used against him,

just like he did with you.

And you actually buy that?

I do.

And I think Hendricks bought it too.

I think you told him that Pascal screwed you.

And it made Hendricks realize what Pascal

was really up to in Miami.

Oh. I see, I see.

So you couldn't pin it on me, so you moved on to Hendricks.

He's got the contacts.

Stick to your day job, Lieutenant.

I need you to confirm that you called Hendricks

- after you got taken in. - Why?

So I can help the guy who put me in here?

Maybe you hate Pascal, but I'm willing to bet

you hate this place more.

What are you...

you saying you can get me a deal?

You were Hendricks' guy in Chicago.

You know exactly who he'd hire for a job like this.

Well, if I did,

I'd say that's pretty valuable information.

You get me those names, and maybe I can help you out.

Does Carver seem okay to you guys?

How do you mean?

I don't know.

Maybe it's in my head, but it just felt like

he was being a little distant.

With me, at least.

What?

Nothing. It's just...

okay, you wrote this whole letter to him,

and you put down all of these feelings.

But you never sent it, which is cool.

I totally understand why, but...

but maybe it's not that he's being distant.

Maybe it's just that you feel closer

because of what you admitted on paper.

But not to him.

- Hmm. - Well, no.

Uh, Kelly's already gone,

but I will be there as soon as I can.

Okay.

Sorry I'm late.

What are you doing here?

Um, Natalie called me.

You think a firefighter's gonna get you out of this?

Have a seat, Ms. Kidd.

Stella's fine.

Natalie skipped class and was caught outside smoking.

Third time already this semester,

so we have to consider suspension.

Oh, my God, why would you do that?

I'm sorry.

Um, look, I understand that there needs to be

some kind of punishment, of course, but...

I hope you will take into consideration Natalie just

went through a serious trauma with the visit

to her mom's old apartment.

You went to try and see Mom?

Okay, she wasn't even there.

I know.

What?

- Why didn't you tell me? - I was trying to protect you.

Guys, let's stay focused on the issue at hand, okay?

Natalie told us you're her guardian now.

Is that correct?

Her guardian?

Is that what you meant by having her

stay at your place a few days?

Okay, what do you even care?

Danny told me you guys don't even want me there,

so now you get what you want.

Natalie, I really am just here to help out.

I was telling you the truth when I called you.

Guardianship is a matter for DCS,

not the principal's office.

I'll hold off on disciplinary action for now,

but clearly, some bigger decisions

about this young woman's life need to be made.

No suspension.

Nice work.

I didn't even tell my deputy director I was coming here.

I'm not sure Internal Investigation

should be involved in this.

Well, I appreciate that you did.

Where did you get these names?

Bishop.

He said that those are the guys that Hendricks would call

to pull an arson job.

And he just handed them over?

Not exactly.

Don't tell me that you said we'd offer him a deal.

I had to.

But I said it'd be contingent on one of these names

getting us an arrest.

You don't have the authority to do that.

Look, if Pascal is being set up,

it'd be in everybody's interest to get him cleared.

I think the state's attorney would agree.

So what do you need from me?

I need you to run those names

and see if any of them stand out.

Okay, I will cross-check these

against NCIC and LEADS, see what turns up.

Thank you. That's all I'm asking.

I'll be in touch.

What is this?

We have a warrant to search your home.

Excuse us.

I'm calling my lawyer.

You be my guest. Go that way.

Uh, hey, do you mind?

No, not that. That's my wife's.

She's got nothing to do with this.

- Look what you did! - Hey!

- Look what... - Hey!

Chief, back away! Back away.

Don't touch her things!

You don't decide that.

Chief, don't make this any worse on yourself.

Think.

If you're here for the test, come on in.

- Hey. - Good morning.

Did you, um, get my letter?

Yeah, I did.

So why didn't you say anything?

Text or call or something?

Did I... are you mad at me for some reason?

No, I'm not. I...

should have responded.

I know.

But I made a tough call last week.

It just... it feels like staying sober here in Chicago,

surrounded by all the stuff that spun me out,

it's impossible.

So I put in an application with the Denver Fire Department.

Trying to start fresh, you know?

Wow.

Yeah, I mean, whatever you need to do to be healthy.

Gotta try, at least.

Makes sense.

I hope you find what you need there.

Tell me you got something.

I tried calling you last night.

They took my phone, along with my laptop.

I feel like they're closing in.

Well, so am I.

On Hendricks?

Potential accomplices.

State police are running them down right now.

How real is this?

At least two of the names are connected

to OFI investigations in Chicago.

Well, that's promising.

Yeah, still gonna need more...

something concrete that ties all this to Hendricks.

What would that look like?

Has anyone gotten in touch with you

since you left Miami, fishing for something

that they can tell Hendricks?

No.

What about Monica?

Didn't you say she was friendly with Hendricks' wife?

- I suppose. It's possible. - Any way to check?

I still have her phone. They didn't take it.

I'll look after shift.

- Let me know what you find. - Yeah.

Keep your head up, Chief.

Hey, we gotta talk.

- What's up? - All right.

- Where the hell have you been? - Working.

Yeah? On the chief's case?

All right, look, we all saw the cops cart him away.

We haven't heard a damn thing since.

All right? We're not trying to pry.

All right?

We're all just very concerned.

I'm sure you get that.

Yeah.

When I know something, you'll know something.

All right.

Truck 51, Ambulance 61.

Person trapped.

2161 Hillhurst.

My husband!

He was trying to replace the furnace, and it fell on him.

- He's not answering me. - Okay. Where is he?

- In the basement. - Okay.

Hey, let's grab cribbing and wedges.

Mouch, find the gas meter. Shut it off.

Copy that.

He had a heart attack last year,

and I'm scared that it might have happened again.

Okay, ma'am. We'll check him out.

Looks like the furnace ripped the support beam loose

when it came down.

Let's get some struts on that right away, Mouch.

We don't want the ceiling to cave in

while we're getting him out.

Hey, I can't have any medics in here

if there's collapse potential. You gotta go.

Well, if he's had a heart attack, we can't wait.

Carver, you are acting medic.

Violet, you can walk him through it outside.

Let's go.

Ma'am, we gotta get you out too.

Let's go.

All right, we're gonna set up cribbing,

and then we're gonna lever it up inch by inch.

Okay, Violet, talk to me.

Okay, first, attach the defib pads.

I can't. It's too tight.

Attaching leads.

Okay, leads are attached.

Okay, check the monitor. What's it reading?

It's slow. Heart rate's 42.

He's bradycardic.

We're gonna need IV access to push fluids.

I can't get to his arms.

Okay. Uh, what about his leg?

It's clear, but I've never done a leg IV.

You're not doing an IV.

You're gonna have to do an intraosseous infusion.

Which is what exactly?

You're gonna drill directly into the bone.

We don't have another option.

All right, did you find the drill?

Yeah, I've seen 'em before. Just never used one.

Now, listen.

First, you are going to position the drill

about three finger lengths beneath the knee

towards the inside of the shin bone.

Okay, I'm ready.

Now, place a drill on the bone and apply steady pressure.

You should feel it give.

Sam, you can do this.

- It's in. - Good.

Okay, now aspirate with the syringe.

You should see bone marrow.

All right.

- I see it. - Perfect.

Connect the IV tubing and push 200 CCs.

You gotta squeeze hard.

- It's pushing. - Check the monitor.

What do you see?

Heart rate's climbing.

It's up to 65.

You did it. He is stable.

That is exactly what we need.

He's clear.

All right.

Let's get him out.

Carver, on your count.

Copy. One, two, three.

- Grab the Stokes. - Copy that.

Hey, nice teamwork.

Yeah.

All right.

There's ten names on this list.

How did all of them clear?

I only had to clear three.

The other seven were either incarcerated or out of state.

Okay, so maybe Hendricks didn't use one of these guys.

Maybe he used someone new.

I had the same thought, so I called Miami Correctional

and had them pull Hendricks' phone logs.

And?

He hasn't made a single call in two months.

Well, sometimes they smuggle burners.

They told me he has pancreatic cancer.

He can barely get out of bed.

I'm sorry.

I know you wanted Hendricks to be your guy.

Maybe something else will turn up.

Yeah, maybe.

Thanks anyway.

Julia.

You okay?

I'm here to tell you I'm not letting Natalie go without a fight.

What?

I know I'm not the world's best sister, okay?

I try, but working, classes,

trying to take care of this messed-up,

moody teenager at the same time?

It's been hard, but I can do better.

I'm gonna do better.

Well, Natalie thinks that you want her gone.

I didn't know Danny said all that to her.

I kicked him out last night.

Natalie told me you're the one who rescued her from that fire,

so I know it'll be hard to compete with that

in some custody court, but I...

No, Julia.

Hold up.

Um.

Oh, I do not wanna compete with you.

I just wanna help.

All that you are juggling, it's not easy.

And I would never judge you for struggling with it.

I get it more than you know.

Let me tell you something.

If you love Natalie and you want her to stay,

just tell her that.

I know there is nothing that would make her or me happier.

Commissioner Grissom can see you now, Captain.

Thank you.

Lieutenant, I was just looking through Franklin's

case files again.

You have something for me?

No, I don't.

I thought you had a lead.

Didn't pan out.

And now, I...

I don't know where to go from here.

Well...

maybe it's time to look at this case

for what it really is.

And what's that?

Occam's razor.

The simplest explanation is usually the right one.

Pascal didn't do this.

He had motive, expertise.

The device was CFD.

I just can't believe that.

Which is why you should have stepped away.

Your judgment is compromised.

You could be an accessory to a crime.

I've been at OFI a long time, seen a lot of cases.

So have you.

Everything here says this is the work of a firefighter.

OFI.

Lieutenant?

You're right.

It was a firefighter.

We've just been looking at the wrong one.

Dom, is everything okay?

We need to talk.

Well, now's not really a good time.

It can't wait.

Come on in.

You know, your lieutenant came by the other day

and made it sound like you're in some kind

of trouble or something.

Is that what this is about?

Those are your texts to Monica.

How many of these you send after she told you to stop?

After I told you to stop?

What do you want me to say, Dom?

That I was in love?

That... that's not love. It's obsession.

So what? What?

You wanna sucker-punch me again?

These texts, you gotta understand,

they make it clear I'm not the only one in the CFD

who'd go after Franklin.

What, are you serious right now, Dom?

Were you really gonna let me take the fall for this?

I stood up for you,

and now you wanna pin this on me?

You could have just gone to the cops.

I protected you.

Get the hell out of my house.

I'll have to tell them everything I know.

No, you ain't telling 'em anything.

Because I did you a favor.

See, I did what you didn't have the courage to do.

You son of a...

You already called them.

It wasn't me.

The POD footage we pulled places Vale's car

at the parking lot at the time of the incident.

Van Meter also confirmed with facilities

Vale requested a replacement center-punch two days ago.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg

now that we know where to look.

Chief?

I don't understand how you knew to look at Vale.

When I went to see him the other day,

I said it was an Internal Affairs matter.

No one knew it was arson yet.

I never said anything about OFI.

He did.

So how could he have known?

It didn't click until I accepted it had to be a firefighter.

You know, I thought about it.

Going after Franklin, I gamed out the whole thing.

What stopped you?

You did.

To our chief.

Best news he's had in a while.

And he deserves it.

If... no...

when you pass that test, I wonder where Pascal will go.

He will be missed.

Well, like Chief Boden always said,

things change, even at 51.

It's inevitable.

Herrmann!

We gotta talk.

Hey, come on.

We'll talk in the back.

What did you do?

What had to be done.

What does that mean?

Herrmann, I was just notified

I'd been made lieutenant on Engine at Firehouse 51.

Did... did you lay down your bugles for me?

Yeah, I did.

I am not an officer anymore.

I'm just a regular old firefighter

who is about to work under one hell of a lieutenant on Engine.

No.

You can't do that.

I'll go to another firehouse if you don't

wanna take Pascal's seat.

This?

This isn't worth it.

You and I both know, deep down, a desk is not for me.

And that young auditor? He wasn't wrong.

They are gonna be coming for both of us soon enough.

And meanwhile, I had the chance to be

an officer at the firehouse I love and work

alongside my best friend.

It's time for you to get your chance, Mouchie.

Sam?

What are you...

I love you, Violet.

I love you too.

Nice work, Lieutenant.

Long night.

I have the cure.

- Come on. - What?

I wanna show you something.

I was wondering where this shirt was.

Oh, wait, really?

I've had this for, like, two years.

We are definitely going clothes shopping.

Oh, maybe we could hit up that Crossroads near school.

You have had so much going on lately,

and I know that I have been emotional about everything.

Hey. Hey, hey.

You don't have to explain.

There's something else.

Something you need to see.

I think things are about to change around here.

That.

Are you ki... you kidding me?

Kelly, we're pregnant.
