Previously on Third Watch. My sympathy.

He thinks you're gay, you know.

He does, doesn't he?

Mayor's office wants recommendations for best paramedic in the city.

Best paramedic in the city's got to be the old man.

That be.

Pops, it's got to be you, Doc. It's unanimous.

Start working on that acceptance speech.

There's more in your world than Maurice Boscarelli. I didn't see him at any of

these doctor's appointments or radiation treatments or surgeries.

He doesn't know.

You haven't told him?

This is Carlos.

He ran into the birdcage again.

He's home?

Yeah.

Oh, wow.

Why didn't he wake me?

It's all right. He'll be leaving soon.

Are you sure?

Mm -hmm. It's Monday. He's got a morning class.

And I'm actually starting to know his schedule.

So what would be the harm in him finding out about this anyway?

What? Remind me why we have to have this big secret going. I don't get it.

Because he's my partner and this is my private life.

I wouldn't care if Sully knew.

Did you tell him?

No, I'm just saying I wouldn't care. It was a big deal.

What was that?

Let it be for now.

Okay?

Well, maybe my silence could be bought.

Carlos is home.

So we'll have to be quiet.

Can you?

Is that a challenge?

Huh?

I should see you in three months.

I thought I was done.

No, it's just a follow -up. Looks good.

But it can come back, right? That's what happens.

For some.

But I'm other.

Staying positive is very important, Faith.

Right.

Positive.

That last bit of radiation could hit you hard. You might burn.

Well, you know what?

It kind of hurt me hard the last time, you know, so is it going to hurt?

Well, I can give you something for the pain.

But it could cause queasiness.

I wouldn't take it on the job.

Fine. You know, so time off is understandable.

Yeah, maybe I'll do that.

I could write you a note.

Recommend a couple of days.

Uh, no, that's all right.

Because I have a couple of days coming up anyway, so I'll just, um, I'll just

take them now.

You sure?

I'm positive.

Some, huh?

It comes back for some.

We're going to consider you others, right?

That's enough.

That's enough. Come on.

Turn it off.

It's great. Turn it off.

Listen, listen. I know this seems a little bogus, but what we want to do is

some behind -the -scenes shots of you starting the day so that we can use them

under the bumpers. So you just go ahead and do what you normally do. All right?

Normally, you have me walk in the room six times. Well, now, what we're trying

to do is we're trying to get as if we're arriving and we're finding you.

You're going to look great.

Hey, I don't care how I look, remember? I don't want to do this. Well, your

command is very excited about it. Yeah, well, so go film then.

Yes, but being picked medic of the year is quite an honor at this time.

I haven't been named that. Yes, but you won a five finalist, and you're a sure

bet to be the winner, so. Hey.

Come on.

Don't ask.

All right, Ray Henry, trauma response.

Trauma response?

Right, trauma response. It's a television show.

What we do is we follow emergency crews around, and then we tell their stories,

and I'm the producer, there's my crew.

Thank you, sir.

You're going to be with us all day, and the department set it up. Why don't you

just go get dressed so we can get out of here?

Hey, doctor.

You're that trauma response guy.

Ray Henry. Oh, Carlos Nieto.

Hey.

Whoa, you guys are doing an episode on the 5 -5?

We're going to tag along with Mr. Parker here.

Just him?

Well, it's a special episode. It's called The Best of the Best.

You know, I'm pre -med.

Carlos. I just got back from class. I go to school in the mornings.

Work here at night is a tough schedule, but when you've got a goal, you've got

to sacrifice it. Carlos.

You want to get ready for work?

Yeah, yeah.

You guys will be around all day? Absolutely. We'll be out there. All

4553 is the unit number if you're on the scanner.

Hello?

A Mini 14, huh? That's what I said.

Those guys get the whole goody bag.

H &K, MP5s, Remingtons. No sidewinder, man?

You can't show up to a Haitian drug raid with a handgun, man.

Guess not.

Hey, Sully, you remember Glenn Hobart? Sure. Back on the job.

Hidden? Yeah.

I'm glad. Go by and see him later if you want to come by.

Oh, man, I don't know. Hobart was always a little intense for me.

What about you, David?

Uh, tempting as seeing a Remington J &M K Elemental P Mini, whatever it sounds.

No, I'm good. Slow down.

You got a few minutes.

I've been running behind all morning.

You don't look so good.

Well, you do know how to talk to a lady, huh?

Kids get sick, I get sick.

It's the season, right?

Get to a fan letter.

Ringo Starr.

Glennie Hobart.

E .S .U. Glenn?

Yep, he's back on the streets. We're gonna go by his station, check out the

truck. Oh, and you even got something special to wear.

No, Sully's right. You don't look so hot. Yeah, well, I'm tired. I just want

lay low today.

Sounds good to me.

Ringo Starr?

The cuddly beetle.

I was making my turn, and the heel just snapped.

Oh, well, take good care of it.

What, you got a practic fib there?

I don't have x -ray eyes, so I don't know if it's a hair cap.

The heel snapped because you made the turn like a whore.

Not because the shoe is cheap.

What? It's a piece of crap!

You're not filming, are you? No, no, no, we're not doing anything. We're just

covering the medics here.

Don't act like you're trying to relieve me. Why don't you come with me? We'll

talk about it.

So,

um, this is an air splint, and it will immobilize your ankle until we can get

you to the hospital, okay?

It's not going to hurt, is it?

No, not any more than taking that cheap shoe off, dear.

I'm going to go get the chair.

Hey. Excuse me. Thanks.

Lady's down. Figured you guys might need a stair chair.

You're backing us up on a twisted ankle?

That's what we do. We back each other up.

Oh, right, right.

A television crew and a room full of models?

I had no chance.

Who is this guy?

Who's what?

Come on, you got that I got a new girl look on your face.

No one. No.

Nothing. I'm just, uh, feeling good.

Yeah? Mm -hmm.

Me too.

Makes me nervous as hell, though.

Because you don't believe in happiness.

No, it's usually just a place saver between tragedies. I rest my case.

Hey, man, I'm working on it. That's good for you.

Bye -bye, Charlie.

Charlie. Charlie, take a man calling for help near the water at Astoria Park

underneath the bridge.

10 -4 Central.

What the hell is this, man? Get the glass half full, my man.

Can you imagine having a Remington 660 while guarding a Yankees game? Talk

having your cake and eating it, too.

You know, 93 guys are eligible to retire this month from Boku overtime.

I gotta be shoo -in.

Will you pull over?

What? Will you pull over, please?

All right, you blow chunks in the car, you're cleaning it up. You hear me?

They say you aren't compassionate.

Hey, Dad.

You hear anything?

No, I don't.

Wait.

Wait, so they're right there.

5 -5 Charlie to Central. They shot us. We need EMS and rescue at this location.

They shot my wife. My wife and kids.

Nothing. Nothing.

God. Come on. Becky.

Becky.

Come on, guys, get out the way. Get the hell out the way.

Come on.

Becky.

Keep these aliens falling.

Becky.

Doc, black tag.

Both?

Doc, who are these people?

They're with us.

All right, I'm in.

Mr. Bass.

What's up? Please.

Doc, this is CSW.

Possibly two, one in the upper back.

Got the first bag in? Almost a full bag on board.

You guys want to get our stretchers for us?

Yeah, no problem. Item 553, we need another bus at this location.

Tim.

Taylor, get me another bag ready.

Come on, Becky, breathe.

Becky, breathe, baby.

Come on, Becky, breathe.

Becky. Sir, we need to work here, please.

Sir, are you hurt? Are you injured? I'm all right. I'm taking care of my wife

and kids.

We're trying to help them, okay, but you're getting in the way.

If they can't do their job, that isn't good for your little girl.

One, two, three.

So what's your name?

McKinley, Jared McKinley. Okay, all right, Mr. McKinley, let me see where

hurt. Nothing.

The bullet hit my shoulder.

Go. You have ginseng? Liquid or tablet?

Tablet.

Take this.

They're like horny teenagers and old men.

Your immune system's low.

How's that for compassion, huh?

You have a bottle of water? Right there.

Oscar, I can take this later.

The sooner the better.

It's just for later. It's going to get chilly tonight.

What are you like, Dr. Bombay?

Sully and Davis got something going at the park.

I know, but they didn't ask for our help. But they called for the squad and

boss. Yeah, but they didn't ask for help from us.

All right, fine. We'll just stay in the area.

Okay?

You going to pay?

Me.

It's your medicine.

That's a little girl.

I don't know.

You think she'll be all right?

Maybe you should have gone with them. Okay, I will. You guys did a great job

today. Doc, we need a few minutes to talk to Mr. McKinley.

All right.

You think you can give us a better description of these guys? All I

they were black.

And one was really big, you know. They had me face down in the back of the van

most of the time.

You have no idea why they want to do this?

You know... They wanted money. I told you.

And the one guy, the big guy, he was worried about us identifying

him.

He said the cops were going to be all over a bunch of black guys robbing a

family.

And I told him we wouldn't say anything to the police. But then they

made us walk out of the water and then they started shooting.

Can you tell me again where you were when they first picked you up?

Yeah, like 58th, 1st.

We were out for a walk, so we got to get going.

Hey, Guzzler!

Listen, I'm going to send one of my guys with you over to the hospital, okay?

You remember anything you think might help it?

Let him know, will you? Yeah.

Get these guys, all right? Get them.

We'll do the best we can.

Yes, sir? I want you to ride over to the hospital with this guy. If he remembers

anything else, tells you anything, find me and let me know, okay?

Ten -year -old female, two GSWs, one mid -back, one upper thigh, BP falling 50

pounds, sinus tachy 144,

carotid pulse weakens ready, breast 32, skin is pale and cold, heart sounds

distant, breath sounds decreased on the left, O2 at 10.

Two liters in.

Ready? 35 -year -old male, small caliber, HBGMW to the right shoulder.

BP's 130 over 90.

Rest are 30, no LOC. Lost about 200 pcs.

Can you guys babysit him for a few minutes? We've got the whole team on the

but there's some reinforcements on their way down. I want to see my daughter.

She'll be fine. They're taking care of her. Yeah, we'll watch her. Thanks. No

cameras.

Turn the camera off.

Off. No, I have an agreement with the... All right, all right.

He's done.

How's the girl?

This is an excellent trauma facility.

You guys are doing a great job. Great job. Thanks a lot.

Do you feel like talking about it?

Oh, sure, sure. Well, why don't we do this outside by yourself?

Yeah, that sounds good. All right. The other thing about GSW. No, not now. I

thought you'd say that.

I can't believe you're back. I thought you were going to buy a Winnebago and

head to Rehoboth.

I did get it. This is nice.

Hey, see that little one there? You can cut through a cinder block.

Let's try it. Let's not, huh?

Margie and I took it out a couple of times. Took the grandkids down to Ocean

City. Even got as far as Hilton had once. Get out of here. I thought you and

Marge were done.

Legally. We're still friends.

Well, it sounds like your life for Riley.

What, did you miss it?

I do what I don't.

I mean, I sure don't like the reason I'm back, but...

They needed some of us old -timers.

Kind of nice to be needed again.

ESU Truck 12, we have requests in the 5 -5 for an evidence search in Astoria

Park. Truck 12, 10 -4 Central.

There's a family shot over there. Oh, how could I not miss this?

Definitely.

Thanks for the shirt, man. Yeah. Welcome back, Sarge. Okay, guys, pack it up.

He seems sad.

That mini -cut to a fender block?

Unbelievable.

Did you notice how that guy kept looking at me every time he said the word

black? You notice that? Next thing you know, ESU will be down here kicking down

doors.

What we should be doing is a thorough investigation right here at the scene.

Every time some fool does something, it's got to reflect on me, right? Like

this. All these cars.

Parked less than a block away.

Maybe somebody saw something.

Maybe it's a waste of time.

As soon as people hear black, though, all bets are off.

It should be off.

Not because they're black, but anybody who's going to shoot a family to death

broad daylight, we've got to get them fast, regardless of their color.

Fast is never the way to do this job. Well, we're sitting here running plates.

What's that going to do?

5 -5, Charlie. On your plates.

Charlie.

Plate number one checks back negative stolen to Gina Spanova, 4 -3 -7 -8,

Vincent, Jersey City.

Plate two, negative stolen to Jared McKinley, 9 -6 -4.

Hold on, Central. You say Jared McKinley?

10 -4, Charlie. Jared McKinley, Queens.

I thought he said they were brought here in advance.

Central, we've got to get an emergency message to 5 -5, John.

We're taking your daughter up to surgery, sir.

Take care of her.

We will. Oh, the doctor will be in short.

Is she going to be all right?

You should ask the doctor.

Sir? You don't have to call me, sir.

Would you mind? I really have to... I had two coffees. Down the hall to the

right.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm nervous.

My daughter's going into surgery.

Relax, okay? They're really good here. Why don't you lay down? Who are the guys

with the camera?

Long story.

They're filming you?

Yeah.

Why, are you some kind of celebrity?

No. What's going to happen with that tape?

I guess it'll end up on TV.

Adam 553.

Adam? Can you receive a private message?

Yeah, go ahead.

Do you want to know if you're still with your patient?

No, I'm still on that job.

W's in the city, so you kind of get good at the trauma.

Start to be able to sense what's going to happen before it happens. It's kind

like a, what the hell?

Whoa, whoa. Ma 'am, are you okay?

Where'd he go? Where'd he go? He just took off in this woman's car.

You all right?

553, I need PV back up. What are you asking?

Suspect has fled in a blue Toyota.

554, Charlie to Central. We're approaching Mercy now. Can you give us

on the situation?

Is that him? That was him.

Police!

Police!

Did

you

get any of that?

Is the battery working?

We're now chasing the suspect northbound on Amsterdam, headed for 110.

Eastbound on 110.

Moving!

So?

Watch it right here.

Get out of the way. Get out of the way. Come on.

Watch it right here.

I went northbound on pick.

I got it.

Oh,

walk me right here. I got it.

Not bad.

Not too bad, Sully.

That's all I'm gonna expect.

Roll down the window.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I think so.

5

-5,

Charlie. We've been involved in a traffic accident.

Suspect heading eastbound on 102 .7.

We're going to need EMS and fire at this location forthwith.

You all right?

Ma 'am. Are you all right?

It's cold tight. EMF is on the way.

Ma 'am, can you open the door?

Oh, crap.

How you doing?

I'm a little better.

Sorry. Don't worry about it. Just keep him peeled, all right? This pinhead's

to be coming through here soon.

I think we should just go back to the house. I don't feel too great.

Bingo.

Hey, this one's bad right here. What the hell happened?

Chase, let me watch, Kim. All right.

Damn.

Come on, watch out, guys.

Sully! What you got? The door's a jam. She's unconscious.

My wife, I was calling her to the shop, and this nutcase came out of nowhere.

Get back, Doc.

Watch out, watch out.

Me, honey.

Chandler, get over here. Carlos, bring your stretcher.

He's already bled through. I got it.

Driver's license is Ryan Buckley.

Okay.

You gonna be all right?

Suffocating.

He's bleeding pretty bad over here. I'll get it. I'll get it.

Come on.

You okay over there?

His teeth are clenched.

Give him for a sec.

We need an order for that.

Hold that down there, Sully. All right, I got it, I got it.

Give it to him and then call it in.

Listen, Ray, we need a minute. All right, okay, we're on your side.

Turn the camera off. Come on, let's go. Step on out.

Come on, come on.

At 101 and Green, the suspect has apparently fled in the area on foot.

Green.

Bye -bye, David. We're going to need backup at this location.

Let's go!

It's taking too long. We've got other patients. I can't see his cord.

Take his collar off.

No. I'll stabilize his neck.

Why don't you bag him and transport him?

Because we don't have time.

Look. Watch out.

Doc.

Yeah, got it.

Okay.

Getting ready for transport.

Doc! You're good at this, aren't you?

We'll do good work.

Medic of the year!

Get out of my way.

This is the police.

If you have a way.

Get away from me!

I need to check my partner and make sure that he's okay.

Okay?

I

need

to check my partner.

And make sure that he's okay.

Look, I'm going to put my gun away.

I'm going to put my gun away.

See? I'm putting it away.

We're all right here.

I am not alright.

I need to check my partner and make sure that

he's okay.

I got to confirm, one perp down.

EMS is right behind us.

God help you if Proctor sees you with that camera going. I am not afraid of

at all.

Put the thing down. Put it down.

All right, move over here. Come on. Get out of the way.

Busy day, huh?

Was the shotgun yours?

No. She's in ICU. They think she's going to make it.

Well, that was Carlos and Taylor.

I'll give them a high five for them, okay?

Like the worst ones, Ryan Buckley, quadriplegic.

At least he's breathing on his own.

He's paralyzed?

Arms and legs.

What? Was he moving when you got him?

No.

I don't know what happened before we got there.

Fire extricate or you?

We did.

Well, he had a subluxation of the cervical spine.

Probably injured the cord.

What can you do?

Call him a god's a bitch.

Almost got him. Yeah.

Save the crap, you're a hot dog. You're going after an armed suspect and no

backup. It wasn't armed.

Until he got your gun, we'd go in with at least four guys.

And then only after we're reasonably sure where the suspect is going to be,

we throw distraction devices, we create diversion.

Come on.

As soon as you're better, I'm taking you to the attack house. I'll show you how

to clear a building.

Glennie. Thanks a lot.

You'll be fine.

It's going to hurt like a mother. You just got to sit down.

Guess you won't be hanging with the supermodels tonight.

Whatever that means.

Bite me.

Are you in here? We had some models earlier today.

They invited us all to a party.

Man, these chicks were hot.

Fire hot.

It was like five of them.

Two of them were into me.

One liked Doc, but she was the ugly one. What were you supposed to do? Let him

choke to death?

When a collar goes on, you don't take it off. I know that.

It could have happened in the hospital.

If he was injured that bad, it probably could have happened anywhere.

I should have given it 30 more seconds to let the medicine work.

Doc, you did the right thing.

You know, you did what you had to do, and sometimes the call goes bad.

Was he moving when you got to him?

Doc, come on. Was he moving?

It doesn't matter.

Was he moving?

I backed you in there.

And if I was going to say anything, I should have said it then.

I'm on probation, Doc, and I am trying to get my son back. And I can't lose my

job over this.

Mild rib fracture.

How long am I going to be out of it? We're going to keep you overnight. Then

can lay low for a week. I'm not staying here.

All right. Then, look, the nurse will be in with your home care instructions.

All right.

Where were you?

I thought you were behind me.

I kept looking.

Oz, I'm sorry.

I kept looking. I was calling for you.

I'm sorry.

We should make a...

Pretty good episode out of today.

Is it always this busy?

Sometimes. Sometimes.

Nothing happens.

I'll bet your idea nothing is a lot different than mine.

I'd like to see that tape.

What?

I want to see the tape from the accident.

Oh, you look fine. Trust me.

Burn your copy. I got the equipment in the car.

So... Give me a minute.

Look, Bosco. All right. Let it go. I know. I just wanted to... No. You said

were sick. I shouldn't have pushed you.

Right? You weren't feeling well.

I have cancer.

What?

It was in my breast.

But I've been getting radiation treatments, you know, to make sure that

come back.

I should have told you sooner, but I thought I could work and handle it.

And then today I got nausea from one of the pain

pills, and I didn't back you up.

And that bullet kind of missed your back.

Just stop it.

All the things that we've learned that we can't control in this world.

And you're going to surprise me with this.

I just didn't want to be dumping my stuff on anybody.

It's me, Faith.

It's me.

I'm not anybody.

Well, I didn't want anybody treating me differently.

Are you dying?

No.

The doctor says it looks real good.

You should take some time off.

If you like pina colada

Getting caught in the rain.

If you like

making love to me tonight.

In the tools of the case.

I'm the love that you look for.

Me and the case.

Hey,

hold up, girls.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay.

Hold on, girls.

Hey.

That was, uh... I can explain.

Better.

We just...

We just started seeing each other, you know, it just kind of happened. It

like... That was a girl, right?

What? That, that was a girl. Yes, yes, yeah.

You didn't... Yeah, it was just a girl.

So you're not... No, no.

No, I'm not. Never have been, no.

Seriously? I'm not.

I'm gonna get back to... Because your sergeant said...

Red -headed dude. Christopher told you?

And you believed him?

Well, what, he seemed sincere.

Okay.

So, you sure you're not?

Completely. I'm completely not.

Yeah.

All right.

Damn,

I thought, you know, I was going to ask you if this outfit worked.

That's funny.

All right, man. Go ahead on.
