- Isaiah is 14.

- You said his mom
is in the hospital?

- The hope is that she'll
continue to improve

until she can take
Isaiah back home.

- His whole world's
been turned upside-down.

The two of us,
that's all he's got.

- The city's implementing
rig reductions.

- Does this
include the medics?

- EMS doesn't lose any rigs,

but I'm not gonna
sugarcoat it for you.

You'll be working harder,
sleeping less,

and carrying more.

This is our new reality.

- I just wanted to say that
what your dad did is on him.

- You don't know
a goddamn thing

about what my dad did, okay?

- This is a call from
the Metropolitan

Correctional Center.

- Hey, Dad.

- Next.

Step forward, please.

Move forward.

- Attention, all visitors.

This facility has been
placed on lockdown.

Prisoner visitation has
been suspended for the day.

Repeat, this facility
is now on lockdown.

Please make your way--
- Okay, it's time to leave.

- Hey, uh, excuse me!

- Head to the exit.
- Excuse me.

Excuse me, Officer.
- Move towards the exit.

- Hey, how you doing?

Look, I need to get
a message to an inmate, okay?

- Keep jabbering at me,
you're gonna

find yourself
in there with him,

won't need me for nothing.
Let's go, folks.

Let's move it. Let's go.

- Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

- You were up pretty late, huh?

- No, not too bad.
11:00, 11:30.

- You guys talk about
anything interesting?

- No, we were pretty deep into
that "NightCrawl" game.

Isaiah kicked my ass.
Again.

- Looked like fun.

I gotta admit, I'm jealous.

Like, I, uh--
I'm just struggling

a little, trying to connect.

Maybe when we go see
his mom next week,

that'll be a bonding thing.

- Yeah. Yeah, I bet it will.

- Well.

He is gonna be late.

- Uh, come in.

- Hey. Time to go.

- Oh, I'm sorry.
I was just--

um, I'm ready.
- Uh-oh.

What happened?

Oh, did a pen explode?

- I'm sorry.
It was, um--

I can wash it.
- Hey, no, it's okay.

It's really not
a big deal at all.

What were you doing, anyway?
Drawing?

- I was just fixing my shoe.

The rubber part was falling off
and I kept tripping on it,

so I taped it back on,
but then--

- Right, I get it.

Color it in so that
it wouldn't be so obvious.

- It was a bad idea.
- No, not at all.

It's--I mean,
it's pretty clever, actually.

I wouldn't have known
if you hadn't shown me.

But...

I am gonna take you
shoe shopping for new shoes

tomorrow after shift.

- No, that's okay.
These are fine now, see?

- Hey, listen,
I'm super impressed

with the "MacGyver" move.

But making sure that
you have the basics,

that's--that's what Kelly
and I are here for.

- Yes, ma'am.

- Great.

Okay, well,
let's get out of here.

- Shortest day off in history.

- Yeah.
Not sure we ever even left.

- It's like that movie,
what's--what's it called?

- "Groundhog Day."
- No, the other one.

- Pretty sure
it's "Groundhog Day."

- "Exterminating Angel."
What?

I watched it on Turner Classic.

- Why are you watching
Turner Classic Movies?

Are you, like, 80?

- Morning, Lieutenant.

- Good morning, Vasquez.

- Good morning, 51.
all: Good morning, Chief.

- First things first,
I just got word from

Deputy District Chief Cranston
that Engine 51 is gonna be

pulled from service this week.
- What?

- I know.

Apparently,
the brains down at HQ

bumped Mouch and his team
from the schedule.

Less than two hours' notice.

Trust me, nobody's more
fired up about this than I am,

but to be fair,
they did warn us

that we'd be having brownouts.

So we're just gonna have to
keep rolling with the punches,

as we always do.

- Squad 3, Truck 81,
Ambo 61.

Motor vehicle accident.

East Randolph at
North Field Boulevard.

- Oh, my God.

- 99? Is that--

- That's my friend
Murphy's rig.

Grab the jump bag.
- Kidd, try the back door.

Squad, get the driver.
Cruz, grab the sked.

- Violet!

Kelly.

- Murphy? Murphy, it's Violet.

Hang in there, okay?
Help is coming.

- Violet! Get down.
We got this.

Prep for the patients.

- Strike. Strike.
Strike. Strike.

- Sorry.

- Hey, you all right?
- Yeah.

- Capp, Tony,
pop the windshield.

We'll take her
through the front.

- Here it comes, Herrmann!

Nice.
- Got it.

- What's your name?
- Pierce.

- All right, secure!
- Copy that.

All right, Herrmann,
we gotta get the stretcher.

- Yeah.

- There we go.

- All right. Got it?
- Got it?

- All right.
- Grab it.

All right.
- All right.

- Hey, what have we got?

- 64 years old.
Uh, fell off a ladder.

Fractured his ribs,
but his vitals were stable

right up until the crash.

- I only have
a pulse on one side.

- Try the pulse-ox
on the other side.

- Nothing.

- All right, he could have
an aortic dissection.

Let's load him and go.
We gotta hustle.

- Support her legs.
- Yep.

- Hey, are you sure you know
what you're doing in there?

- You can do better,
be my guest.

- No.

Hey, Kidd.
- Hey.

- Uh, how's Isaiah
settling in there?

- I wish I knew.

He is--
he's a tough nut to crack.

- Oh, so he's a teenager.

- Yeah, I'm sure
that's part of it.

- Probably a bigger part
than you think.

- Huh.
- Yeah. Check this out.

Now, Max, he quit
the soccer team two weeks ago.

Never said a word
about it until Cindy,

she bumped into
the coach at the bank.

And when she confronted Max
about it,

this was his reply.

- "Oh, yeah, LOL."

Cow emoji, salt shaker emoji.

- They do that to confuse us.

- Well, at least
he replies to your texts.

I had to join Javi's
"Fortnite" server

just to find out
his girlfriend's name.

- Thanks, guys. Good talk.

- Yeah.
- Yep.

- You wanted to see me, Chief?
- Yeah, your MVA this morning.

I heard there was
an ambulance with a patient?

- Ambo 99.
A quarter-turn rollover.

No other vehicle on scene,

so not really sure
what caused it.

- Oh. And how are the medics?

- PIC suffered some head trauma
and was taken to Med.

Partner was able to walk away.
- And the patient?

- Patient was
touch-and-go on scene.

Haven't heard any updates.

- Yeah, uh, okay.

- Where are you off to?

- Well, I've been trying
to get our fearless

deputy district chief
on the horn all day.

He's been dodging my calls.

- All due respect, Chief, with
everything going on right now

in the CFD,
you think it's the right time

to go in there guns a-blazing?

- Well, I'm not just
gonna sit around

and watch my people be treated
like cogs in a machine.

They have families and bills.

They'd have picked up side work
if they had any warning

that they're gonna be
out of work all week.

Budget cuts are one thing,
but I'll be damned

if I'm gonna let this
become the new normal.

- Yeah, we were pretty tight
back then.

- Well, nothing cements
a friendship more than

trauma-bonding at the Academy.
- Mm-hmm.

I was there the night
she met her husband.

They have a daughter now.
Lyra.

God, they must be
freaking out right now.

- How old is Lyra?

She must be four or five?

Six, maybe?

I should know that.
- Hey. It's okay.

Life gets busy.
- Mm-hmm.

- It's not anyone's fault.

Here, go check on her.

I'm gonna hit
the supply closet,

and I'll meet you at the ambo.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Is Murphy okay?

- Uh, I don't know.

She hasn't come to yet.

They took her upstairs
for a CT scan,

just trying to figure out
if she suffered

any permanent brain damage.

Have you heard anything
about the patient

you took over for us?
- Yes.

Uh, he had a tear in his aorta.

Caused some pretty severe
internal hemorrhaging.

He's on a ventilator
in a medically-induced coma.

- Is he gonna make it?
- I don't know.

- Crash was my fault.

- What do you mean?

Sorry, I don't know what
the hell I'm talking about.

Just forget--sorry, I gotta go.

- And he just came out
and said it?

Just like that?
- Yeah.

I don't get it.

How could the guy in the back
cause an accident like that?

- Maybe something didn't get
strapped down and went flying?

Happened to me once with an
O2 tank when I was brand new.

- Well, whatever caused it,

a patient is in the ICU
because of it

and a medic
got seriously injured.

If that Pierce guy
did cause it,

I just don't see
how he keeps his job.

- Yeah.

- Because otherwise,
it doesn't make any sense.

Do it. Make sure.
- Mm-hmm.

- Ms. Davis.
- Chief Pascal.

- It's good to see you again.
- I won't hold you up.

You look like
you're a man on a mission.

- Well, yes,
I am actually on a mission,

trying to figure out
why one of my rigs

was taken out of service
without any warning.

I'm concerned that whoever's
making these decisions

up there isn't taking
into consideration

our response capabilities
or firefighter morale.

But maybe I should be
taking this up with you.

You are the mastermind of
all this cost-cutting, right?

- Come by my office this week.

We'll have a chat.
My assistant will set it up.

- I know what--

yeah, I know what
lockdown means, okay?

I'm just asking for a ballpark
estimate as to when he--

no, he---

Yeah, great, great.
Thanks for nothing.

- Is, uh,
everything okay over there?

- Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Um, one of those
annoying billing issues

with the power company.

- Yeah, I've been there.
They're all crooks.

Yeah, you know, because they--

they know you can't take
your business elsewhere.

- I don't know.

The way you were trying
to stitch yourself up

the other day, seem like a guy
who could live off the grid.

- Hey, Novak.

Violet needs you
in the briefing room.

- The official diagnosis

is moderate traumatic
brain injury.

She's still aphasic
and disoriented,

but Dr. Archer promised
to keep us in the loop.

- Is there any idea
what caused the accident?

- No.

We still haven't been able

to get a statement
from Murphy yet.

It's possible
she won't remember

any of the details anyway.

And unfortunately,
we haven't had any eyewitnesses

come forward either.
- What about Pierce?

- He has no idea what happened.

He said he was monitoring
the patient

when all of a sudden,
he was thrown across the ambo

like a ragdoll.

- He didn't even--

did he have,
like, maybe a theory

on what might have happened?

- He didn't volunteer one, no,
but my hope is we'll get more--

Oh, excuse me.

I have to take this.

I'll be in touch if
I have any more questions.

- Thank you.
- Robinson.

- Did Pierce blatantly lie
to Robinson, do you think?

- I don't know.

But if he thinks
he can railroad Murphy

to save his own ass,
there is no way in hell

I'm gonna let that happen.

- Well, the easiest way
to remember

is that the engine
brings the water,

truck brings the tools.

And truckies are way cooler,
of course.

Hey, maybe you could
stop by the firehouse

after school
sometime this week.

I mean, I don't mean to brag,
but we got

some pretty cool stuff
I could show you.

- Okay.

- You see anything you like?

What about--
oh, what about these?

They're Bulls colors.
I know you're a big fan, right?

- They're nice.
- Okay.

All right, I feel you.

What about--
what about these, hmm?

These are kind of more like
a skater vibe.

You like these?
- Sure.

- Maybe the young man
would like another pair

like the ones he's wearing.
We have some right here.

What do you think?
- Yes, ma'am.

- Awesome. Size seven.

- There's a bench there.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

- I got three boys myself.

Once they find something
they like,

that's all I can get for them.

God help me if I try
to take them shopping.

You'd think
I was torturing them.

Does your son always
have such nice manners?

- Do you have any socks?
- Tons.

The wall right over there,
we have them buy one,

get one free.
- Okay, great, thank you.

- What's going on?

- You said it was your fault.
Those were your exact words.

You said,
"That accident was my fault."

But in your statement
to Robinson,

suddenly you have
no idea what happened?

So which is it?
- It's not what you think.

- I hope not, because from
where I'm standing,

it sure as hell looks like
you're trying to throw

all the blame onto Murphy.
- Look, you're wrong.

I wasn't trying to blame her,
I just--

I shouldn't have let her drive.
I knew how exhausted she was.

Murphy fell asleep
at the wheel.

- We'd been going nonstop,
literally, from one call

to the next our entire shift,

and Murphy was on less than
24 hours of rest.

That's just not enough,
not with how busy we are now.

- How can you be sure she fell
asleep if you were in the back?

- I felt the ambo drifting,

and when I looked up, we were
in the oncoming traffic lane.

I yelled her name at the top of
my lungs, and it woke her up.

She immediately
jerked the wheel

but she overcorrected, and next
thing I know, I'm airborne.

Just so you know,
I'm not planning

on telling anyone else.

No way I'm letting Murphy
take the hit for this.

She was only doing
what she was told.

- I agree.
This isn't on Murphy.

The whole system is broken.

But we can't pretend
we don't know why,

or it'll just keep happening,

and that'll be on us.

- So what are we
supposed to do?

It is a miracle
you've gotten as far

as you did
and never got bounced.

- Me? Wow.

Wow, okay, you're really
gonna make me bring up

your EVOC training, huh?
You're gonna make me do this?

You failed that, what,
two, three times?

- Twice.

- I don't know about that.

- You don't know about that?
- Mm-mm.

- Nah, I'm being real
with you, though.

- Hmm?

- I'm not sure I ever would
have made it through Academy

without you, Sal.
- Get out of here, bro.

You're a born cop.

You just needed a little
confidence boost, that's all.

- Still, not sure
I ever said thank you.

- You know, actually,
there is a--

there is a way that
you could repay the favor.

- Okay.
- You know, even things out.

- Mm, should've known this
wasn't just a casual bro-down.

Well, let's hear it.

- I need to get a look
at the Bianchi case file.

Can you get it for me?

- You know how much heat I can
catch if my sergeant found out?

- I do. I do.

And I wouldn't ask if it wasn't
a life-or-death thing.

- Oh.
- I know.

- Listen, Sal,
whatever happened

with your old man's
investigation,

it doesn't matter anymore.

That scumbag Bianchi,
the jury acquitted him, bro.

He walked, and there's nothing
that can change that now.

- Mm-hmm.

- It's over.

- Not for my dad, it's not.

- I completely froze.

I--I had no idea what to say.

Like, what even are we to him?

We're not his parents.
We're not family.

- We're his guardians.
- But only for a little bit.

- Well, that's what
fostering is, isn't it?

- I don't know.

- I think you're putting way
too much pressure on yourself

to make all this
feel normal to him.

There's nothing about this
that is normal.

- Maybe this is just
my life right now.

It's hard when you can't
figure out

how to reach someone.
- Well, it's only been a week.

We're basically strangers.

And we have to get to know him,
he has to get to know us.

Give yourself a break.
- Hmm.

- You heard back from
Dr. Archer, didn't you?

- Yep, just now.
Let's go for a ride.

- Both needles look good.
124 and 129.

- All right,
check the code three package.

- Rear lights are hot.
- All right, copy.

Hey!

I'm so glad
you decided to come.

- I wanna go see my mom.
- Okay.

I--I thought we were.

- I know, but I don't wanna
wait a whole another week.

It's too long.
- That's fine.

I--I just thought
that Terry had set it up

for next week because your mom
will be in the rehab unit

by then.
- Yeah, but she's doing better.

So can you take me?
- Absolutely, yes. Yeah.

I--I will call Terry
and ask him to set it up

for tomorrow after shift.
Does that work?

- Hey! So this must be Isaiah.

- Isaiah, this is my friend
Christopher Herrmann.

And then that guy
at the driver's seat,

that's Sal Vasquez.
- What's up, buddy?

- Hi.

- So listen, bud, um,

one thing I've learned
in all my years

is that firehouse tours
can be a total snoozefest.

So why don't we just skip
all the nonsense

and cut to the good stuff?

- What's the good stuff?

- You ever seen
the jaws of life?

Come on.

All right, so somebody
gets pinned in a car, right?

What are we gonna do?

We gotta get 'em out
really fast.

We throw this in.
They can't get out, and we go--

- Oh, whoa!

- Open anything.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- How are you feeling, Murph?

- Like I got flattened
by a steamroller.

- Well, you look good.

- Liar.

- What's up with you jumping
on top of my ambo like that?

You training
for Squad now, or--

seriously, what the hell
were you thinking?

- I wasn't.
- Clearly.

- I'm glad you did though.

And I'm so glad it was you
that took care of our patient.

- I wasn't sure if
you'd had any memory of it.

That's a good sign.

- That's what
Dr. Archer said too.

- How about before
we got there?

Do you have any memory
of how the crash happened?

- Hey.

- This is, uh, my partner,
Lizzie Novak.

- I didn't realize
this was an official visit.

- It's not.

- The lawyer
from the union said

not to talk to anyone about
the accident, not even friends,

so if you don't mind--
- That's fine.

You don't have to talk.
I just--

Will you please listen
to what I have to say?

- We know what happened,
and it's not your fault, Murph.

The city, the CFD,
they have pushed you.

They have pushed all of us.

And we need
to make them understand

that these are
the consequences,

and it's only gonna get worse
if we don't speak up.

- If I don't speak up,
you mean.

- I know it's not
our jobs on the line.

But next time, I mean--
- It doesn't matter.

The city's broke, and there's
nothing we can do about that.

So why would I risk my career

when it won't make
any difference?

- Main to Ambo 61.

Boat incident on the river
at the 18th Street Bridge.

Possible cardiac event.

Copy that, Main.

Ambo 61 en route.

- That's gotta be it.

- Squad 3 to Main.

I need a fast boat
and a Coast Guard backup.

We have a runaway boat.

- Copy that, Squad 3.

Moving in the Coast Guard now.

- Is that guy passed out?

- CFD Rescue Boat to Squad 3.
We're on-scene.

- All right, Cruz with me.

Kidd, get ready to hop
the Coast Guard cutter

if this all goes to hell.

- Copy.
- Copy that.

- Hey, be careful.

- What's the plan, Lieutenant?

- Fall in the starboard side
of that ski boat.

- You sure?

It'd be safer from the outside,
don't you think?

- Another two or three
more circles,

that ski boat's running
into the river wall.

You wanna be on
the outside for that?

- No, sir.

- All right, Cruz,
I need you to spot me.

Until I give you the call,
make sure

you got solid footing.
- Good to go!

- All right,
we need to get way closer.

Nice and steady,
no sudden moves.

All right, a little closer.

On my count.

One...

Two, three!

- Heart rate and BP are normal.

It's not cardiac.

- No, he's hypoglycemic.
Blood sugar's at 38.

- Okay, let's load him up.
Give him IV dextrose en route.

Thank you.
- Tell you what.

The amount of paperwork
you're gonna have

to get through,
I don't miss it at all.

- Lucky bastard.

- What the hell?

Hey.

- Squad 3 to Main.

We're gonna need a second ambo
at the 18th Street Bridge.

- How are we doing there,
kiddo, huh?

Are you hurt?
Can you get up?

- No?

All right.

I'll bet you hurt
that elbow when the boat

was bouncing around, huh?
Okay.

Can I come in there
a little closer, sweetheart?

- Oh, that must
really, really hurt.

Well, the good thing is,
I have a quick fix,

and I can make the hurting
go away...

Just like that, all right?

Atta girl. Here you go.

- There.

It's done!

It doesn't hurt anymore, right?
- Mm-hmm.

- Come on,
let's go visit your dad.

There you go.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- So, did you get your

billing issue sorted out?

- I did, yeah.
Yeah, I'm, uh--

I'm staying on the grid.

- All right. Good.

Okay.

Can you just tell me one thing?

What the hell is this?

That, uh--

that is lechon asado.

- Lechon asado.
And what's that, like, pork?

- It's a Puerto Rican delicacy.

- Hey, there he is.

Paging Dr. Herrmann.

- Give it a rest, will you?

- What are you talking
about, Capp?

- Oh, they found
a little kid on the boat

after you guys left,
and, uh, Herrmann figured out

she had nursemaid's elbow,

and he pulled
this Mr. Miyagi trick

and fixed it right on the spot.

- Not exactly brain surgery,
Capp.

- That's it.
That's our solution.

- I put a quick-release
by my side,

unhook it as soon as you
get on the other boat.

- Let's rig it up
and test it out.

- Copy that.

- I gotta say,
that was one hell of a save

today, Lieutenant.

We're lucky you were
out there for us.

- Solid teamwork all around.

- Well, well, well,
look at you.

I've never seen the chief
walk more than ten feet

to compliment somebody before.

- Kelly.

- Uh, hey,
did you talk to Terry?

- Yes, and he said no problem.

He's gonna call the hospital,
tell them to give

Isaiah's mom a heads-up.

- Well, what time
are we heading out?

- I actually thought
I could take him on my own.

You know...

after the thing
at the shoe store, I just--

I need to figure out
a way to connect with him,

and I thought that
this could maybe help.

- Yeah, no, I get it.
Do your thing.

- Okay. Thank you.

- Yeah.

I know.

I know, and I'm sorry
to barge in again.

Look, we know the whole
department is a mess right now,

so I totally understand why you
wouldn't wanna come forward.

But, Murph, what if there
was a way that we could

change things for the better?

- I understand
you spent some time

down in Miami for a few years.
What brought you back?

- With all due respect,
Ms. Davis,

I'm sure you're a busy woman.

Why don't we just
cut to the chase?

- What am I looking at?

- You may not be aware of this,

but most firefighters
work second jobs

when they're not on shift,

so if they unexpectedly lose
two or three shifts

and can't slot in other work,

that can mean the difference
between making the mortgage

and not making the mortgage,

and that shouldn't
be taken lightly.

- We don't take that
lightly, Chief.

But with all the problems
we're up against,

it can't surprise you
that we've hit a few snags.

And we still have
a tough road ahead of us.

We're gonna need strong leaders
in the CFD

who can handle
all the extra pressure.

- What are you saying?

- This won't be
publicly announced

for another week or two,
but City Hall

and the Fire Department
have finalized a plan

to consolidate and reduce
the number of battalions

in the CFD.

- When this plan
goes into effect...

- Six battalion chiefs
will have to go.

Your passion for this job,
your commitment

to your firefighters
underneath your command,

that's exactly why
you aren't on this list.

Thank you for your time.

- One other thing.

Uh, I was just wondering if...

maybe sometime you and I
go grab a drink.

It's just that,
in my experience,

it's a rare thing to meet
a man who isn't intimidated

by a woman in my position.

But no pressure, obviously.

- No, it's just, um--

I'm--um, I'm married.

I was.

So I'm not in a place to, uh--

Thank you again.

- I don't have to
explain to you

what things are like
right now--

one medic calls off,
and that means another one

of us has to work a double

or on half the rest
we normally get,

and then we're on,
and it's nonstop calls.

And with this city-wide
hiring freeze,

it's only gonna get worse.

Someone will die at some point.
It's inevitable.

- I don't disagree with
anything you're saying, but--

- I know.
So what's our solution?

- Firefighters.

- What if we
redeploy firefighters

to take some of the pressure
off of our paramedics?

Firefighters are already
on the city payroll

so the hiring freeze
doesn't apply,

and every firefighter
is already

a trained and certified EMT.

- Plus, with their shifts
getting cut back,

every firefighter
we know will be lining up

for the extra hours.
Everybody wins.

- Well, I wouldn't
say everybody.

What Violet said
about how sometimes

it takes a tragedy
to wake people up,

make them see that something's
gotta change--

she's absolutely right.

And if you're willing
to come forward

about what really happened,
I'd--

I'd say we have
a good chance of selling

this plan to the brass, but--

- I'll get fired.

- It's very possible.

I'll fight it, but I can't
guarantee I'll win.

Are you prepared
to take that risk?

- I am, Chief.

- Damn. Six battalion chiefs?

So they decided to go with
the chainsaw, not the scalpel?

- Yes, they have.

- I'm just glad you weren't
on the chopping block, Chief.

Would have been a disaster
for the entire CFD.

Why do you think
Davis leaked it to you

before it was made public?

What?

- She asked me out.

- Wow.
- Yeah.

- Did not see that coming.
- No, that makes two of us.

But the question is,
what is she really up to?

- What do you mean?

- Davis is a politico
through and through.

Those people, they're
always working some angle.

Maybe she wants a source
closer to the ground.

- Or maybe she just likes you.

- Doesn't matter.

We got bigger fish to fry.

I'm gonna be responsible
for five additional houses

with this whole
battalion consolidation,

so I'm not gonna be here
for all the day-to-day.

I'm counting on you to step up
and take that role, Lieutenant.

What I saw on the boat call
and what I've seen in you--

for a long time, in fact--

I have no doubt that 51
will be in capable hands.

- I won't let you down, Chief.

- This is--

I don't even know what to say.

- You can say we're even.

- Thank you.

For real.

What?

- Heard he's coming up
for parole.

Look, I know you don't
wanna hear this,

and I'm not gonna pretend
like I know

what you're going through.
I mean, if it was my old man--

- I'm sure you've heard
what prison is like

for an ex-cop, right?

Now imagine being
an ex-cop who's in there

for planting evidence.

- Like I said...

I don't know what it's like
to be in your shoes,

I'm sure as hell.
- Hmm.

- But I'm telling you, Sal,
as your friend,

I've looked through it,
and there is nothing

in that file that's gonna
help you get your dad out.

I wish there was,
but I'm sorry.

- What?

- What did the ocean
say to the beach?

Nothing. It just waved.

- That's bad.

- What did one wall
say to the other?

I'll meet you at the corner.

- Stella Kidd?

- I'll, uh--
I'll go see what's going on.

Is everything okay?

- We tried reaching out
to Isaiah's caseworker

about this to save you
the trip down here.

The boy's mother
suffered a fairly big setback

a few hours ago.
- Okay.

- It's called
post-traumatic hyper--

- What's wrong?

- I'm sorry, son, but I really
need to speak with your--

- What? What's happening?

- It's hard to explain.

Maybe we should let
the grown-ups figure this out.

- Don't do that.
Don't treat him like a baby.

We're talking about his mom.

He deserves to know
what's going on.

He can handle the truth, right?

- Isaiah, you mom developed
something called

post-traumatic hydrocephalus.

That means fluid has been
building up around her brain.

Once we caught it,
we did an emergency procedure

to drain the fluid
and relieve the pressure.

Now we just have to wait
and watch her closely

to see how her brain responds.

- Where is she?
I wanna see her.

- She's intubated
and heavily sedated, so...

- Okay.

- I really don't think
this is the best time.

- Whoa, Isaiah!
