Original subtitles

Your vitals are good, heart rate, respiration,

but you're burning O2 reserves. What's your eta?

Best guess, ten, 15 minutes?

It's already been 90. I'm calling you in.

I'm doing elbow surgery on a two-ton robotic arm

in the cold vacuum of space.

I'm not fixing a Chevy chevelle.

Down there, I don't have to worry about my mechanic

violently decompressing. What's your point?

This may take a minute.

Problem will still be there tomorrow.

Technically, tomorrow doesn't exist in space.

Just "later,"

- so let's get 'er done. - All right, you've got...

Captain Stanton?

- Captain sta... - you're cutting out.

Let's reel you back in and check your comms.

Can you hear me?

Captain stant...

Stanton, do you read me?

Comms are down.

Joyner!

Joyner, behind you!

Joyner!

Joyner!

I'm coming.

I'm stuck.

I'm all tangled.

I'm tangled!

Behind you!

Move! Behind you!

Six months ago, the lafd lost a hero.

To honor his

leadership, his service and his sacrifice,

from today on, this will be the Robert Wade Nash

memorial station.

Now, interim captain han will say a few words.

Thank you, chief.

When chief Simpson first spoke to me about a tribute for cap,

we debated what to do.

Should it be "the Robert Nash memorial ladder truck"?

Or a building at the academy to inspire new recruits?

And then I realized that when I think of Bobby...

I picture him here, in this building.

Manning that stove, gathering us all around the table,

taking a team... And making it into a family.

And now we've got this plaque...

to tell anyone who walks through these doors

what we already know:

This is Bobby's house.

Bobby would have hated his name on the wall.

Maybe not as much as I do.

Hey, he deserves his name on the wall,

and you have done a great job

of holding everything together since he's been gone.

He would be really proud of you.

Maybe not as proud as I am.

Well, they all don't hate me yet.

Chim, the vibes here are good.

Really good.

That partnership seems to be going well.

Yeah, I don't know why I was worried.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I just think

- it's kind of weird, you know? - No.

- Jinx! - Jinx!

Usually, when you start working with new people,

it takes a while to get used to each other.

To find a rhythm,

but no, not with the dream team over there.

They act like they've been working together for years.

They have been working together for years.

You've all been working together for years.

You're both seniors now, right?

Well, I actually should have

enough credits to be done in December.

And I keep telling her to forget

this school thing and get a real job.

He just wants me to get a bigger place.

A man needs his own bathroom.

You're not living with your mom?

Well, I didn't want to switch schools, so

mom's been letting me crash at may's since the fire.

Well, you give her my best.

I'm sorry I didn't get to see her today.

Us, too.

I just tried calling her again and it keeps going

straight to voicemail.

Athena didn't tell you she wasn't coming?

No, no. There-there was a text this morning.

"Sorry but I can't make it today.

"Something's come up.

Please give everyone my love."

Yeah, and we've tried calling her four times

since then and she's not answering.

I just don't know what could be

more important than... Remembering Bobby.

You are really extraordinary.

You know, for months I've been swiping right, and nothing.

Then, I turn left at a farmers market

and I meet you. Now, numbers are my job,

and even I can't believe those odds.

I can't believe this is just our first date.

Well, here's to a second.

My lord.

- I'm so sorry. - It's okay. It's okay.

It's, you know, first date jitters.

- I understand. - I'm so sorry.

I'm just out of practice. Would you

- excuse me just for a moment? - Of course.

- I'll be right back. - Okay.

All right.

Athena, why are you back here?

I'm not exactly hearing a confession.

He's one cabernet away from naming Capone,

and if he wasn't, you've got this.

Contacts for every mobster west of the Hollywood sign.

Now that's worth the frostbite.

I told you she was good.

Two, three more dates, and we'll have enough for the D.A.

Now just keep his tongue wagging.

Sondra. Everything all right?

- More than all right. - Good,

'cause while you were away,

I was eyeing that cabernet that you suggested.

- I think we should... - federal agents.

Jonathan Prescott, you're under arrest.

Stand up slowly.

What is this?

That's what I'd like to know.

Damn it.

You must be Athena Grant.

I'm special agent Cordell, FBI.

Apologies for stepping on your toes here.

Five weeks.

Five weeks of 2:00 A.M. "you ups"

and relearning how to flirt. No, sir.

You don't get to blow up my spot

and not call me sergeant Grant.

Sondra?

Apologies, sergeant Grant. We're rounding up names

for a rico warrant and your date was on our list.

Not my date, my suspect.

You've done a damn fine job.

I'm impressed.

Eat the rich! Eat the rich!

Hey, hey! Ho, ho!

Billionaires have got to go!

Hey, hey! Ho, ho!

Billionaires have got to go!

Myron, it's getting ugly out here.

Yeah. No kidding. On my way in,

some guy pegged me with a water balloon.

Listen, your boy better show this time.

If we don't nail him to a press strategy soon...

Tripp hauser is a visionary, okay?

He's always paddled his own canoe,

even before his first billion.

He will give this meeting his full attention

when he joins... Remotely.

Remotely?

Where the hell is he now?

What up, bean counters?

- P.r. Girl. - Crisis manager.

Tripp, why are you in a boat?

Because you scheduled this crucifixion

during my A.M. paddle jam.

Do you remember why you hired me?

Because you are in a crisis.

They're saying that you engineered your app

to be addictive to young people.

Who doesn't love a return customer?

- And then there's the bugs. - We'll do a patch

- next update. - No,

actual bugs. Apparently our microchip plant

in penang is endangering a native beetle.

But you want to know the real meat

of your crap sandwich?

Don't do it, dawn. Don't say it.

- Macronova. - Look, private spaceflight

just doesn't poll well in middle america.

You spent $100 million to send four real housewives

and miss universe into space.

It-it's not just the polls, Tripp.

Since your last "voyage," there's been a dip in our stock.

If you can't

UN-dip, the board may consider a change in leadership.

Well, you tell the board

I will not be intimidated by them.

My IQ's 150, my resting heart rate's 41.

I've got the telomeres of a 22-year-old gymnast.

I will eat them for lunch.

The billionaire? He's lost?

We know exactly where he is,

we just don't know where it is.

- God! - It?

- The whale. - There's a whale?

Well, we think it's a whale. It happened quickly.

- It ate him. One bite. - That, we know for sure.

- Man. - You have reception?

Satellite.

It reeks in here.

Hi, Mr. Hauser. I'm Maddie, 911.

What exactly is going on?

I was kayaking off angel's gate and this thing

swallowed me whole!

If it was near angel's gate, it's likely a humpback.

Mr. Hauser, the good news is

we think it was a humpback.

That's the good news?

Well, it means you haven't actually been swallowed.

Their throats are tiny.

Probably trapped you in its mouth

- when it breached to feed. - So our move

is... just wait

till it spits him out and hope he doesn't drown?

Your move is to sit tight while I get help.

Hey, I'm gonna reach out to the coast guard.

He's stuck in its teeth?

They don't have teeth.

It's baleen.

What are you two, whale experts now?

Imax documentary.

Ewan McGregor narrated.

You guys went to imax together?

Dispatch, we got a 20 on shamu?

GPS on my caller's smartwatch has it in long beach.

Queensway bay.

I've got coast guard coming,

but right now, you're the tip of the spear.

- Or harpoon. - Mr. Hauser, I want you to try and slow

your breathing to preserve your oxygen, okay?

Yeah.

Okay.

See any whales?

I'm looking for the coast guard.

Thar she blows.

I don't see any rescue boats.

Yeah, me, neither.

Dispatch, where's our water rescue?

The boats are 20 minutes out, air support is 12.

He doesn't have 12 minutes.

When the animal comes up for air,

it'll probably spit him out.

How long does Ewan McGregor say they can stay underwater?

At least 45 minutes.

Then we gotta somehow force it up.

How?

Ravi, buck, inch and a half lines.

But he's not on fire.

Eddie, grab the gated wye.

And, hen, we're gonna need a parking cone.

Humpbacks sing to each other, right?

They hear sounds through water for miles.

Loud noises, like boat engines,

can force them to the surface.

So we put that parking cone over the siren,

connect it to the gated valve,

run an inch and a half line through it, charge it

full blast, and we're pumping

120 decibels right into the bay.

Okay, am I the only one who didn't see

this documentary?

- Not a documentary. - The voyage home.

All right, Ravi.

- Let 'er rip! - You got it.

Loose!

All right, Eddie, hit the siren.

Tripp, do you hear anything in there?

Tripp?

118, he isn't responding.

We're losing him.

Come on.

Hey, hey! There he is!

- Is he alive? - All right,

let's hitch the litter to the aerial.

We gotta move...

fast.

I didn't tell him to do that.

Hey, I wanted to do that.

Is that Tripp hauser?

All right, let's get in there.

Bag, cap.

- God, TikTok is gonna love this. - Buck?

Okay, hey, come on, people. Back it up.

Back it up. Back it up. Let's go.

Come on.

We got him!

We got him.

Thank you.

You saved me from that fish.

It's a mammal, sir.

Did the board get that?

Tripp hauser is still the top of the food chain.

Loud and clear, Tripp.

Nice work, captain 118.

Interim captain. Please tell

Saint Ray's we're bringing in a live one.

You should see the one that got away.

He didn't get away.

Feds say they have enough for three counts of wire fraud.

And they sent you these.

The FBI hijacks our case, and they send muffins?

A lot less paperwork than a closure report.

Closure report? We were just getting started.

The FBI may have his phone, but not my calls with him.

Over a month of recon that they don't have.

They do now.

They filed for a jurisdiction transfer.

What was ours is now theirs.

Besides, your cover was blown when your date ended early,

thanks to federal agent... Cordell.

Damn muffin man.

Closed or not...

you should still be proud of your work.

Okay, what's the next case?

There is none.

There's got to be something.

Look, I understand that you've been

wanting to keep yourself occupied.

Elaine.

This is your fourth undercover.

If you're angling to make detective...

what and sit behind a desk all day?

Hell no. I love my job.

Well, then maybe it's time.

For what?

Time for you to go back to being Athena Grant.

Well, billionaire bad boy Tripp hauser

has got himself in hot water again

as animal rights activists

are setting their sights on this polarizing ceo.

Stock prices for hauser's techtonyx have sunk even deeper.

If this trend continues,

it'll be the shareholders who are left

- high and dry. - Order up for Jeff?

Harry?

Hi, mom.

What are you doing here?

I... I work here.

And why aren't you at school?

Because I dropped out.

I dropped out of high school.

Order up for Athena.

Ha-ha.

Yeah, we'll see who's laughing when you're walking home.

- Give me that! - Hey!

- You two, knock it off! - Tell him

to stop sexting my girlfriend.

You're ten years old!

And I've got more game than you ever will, old man.

Little demons.

Wish they'd all just drop dead.

Hey.

Hey, what's going on back there?

Kids?

Kids?

Wake up!

Kids, wake up!

Kids...

Possible dui.

Witnesses say they saw

the driver swerving all over the place.

Copy that. Ravi, chock the tires.

Buck, de-energize the bus.

Hen, Eddie... whoa.

"Occifer," I... I didn't mean to...

- Sir, have you been -drinking? - No, it's water.

All right, guys,

check him out. Thank god this bus is empty.

But it's not.

All right, hen, Eddie, take the bus.

Nathan, Taylor, check out the driver.

Chim, I don't think this is a dui.

I got about 15 unconscious kids in here.

All right, Garcia, desoto, on the bus.

Yes, cap.

Hey, it's water. So whatever he's on,

those kids are on it, too.

And they're smaller, so it hit 'em harder.

You thinking carbon monoxide?

Wake up, kiddos. It's time to go.

It's not co, chim.

I'm getting baseline levels in here.

All right, guys, finish the evac,

start positive pressure ventilation till we can

figure out what did this.

Hey, guys?

I think I might know.

What do you got?

Okay, so everything is de-energized, but you see that?

- Something's leaking. - It's coming from that hose.

- Why does it smell like -waffles? - It's antifreeze.

Engine must've overheated, compromising this hose.

I'm betting it got into the ac system.

Yeah, and then all those kids breathed it in.

Set him down over here.

Whatever this is, it's getting worse.

He's tachycardic, BP's 160/95.

- I'm losing him. - Check his glucose level.

What-what are you thinking?

I'm thinking ethylene glycol poisoning.

Starts out as mild intoxication.

But then the body metabolizes to glycolic acid,

which shuts down the organs.

If that's right, then we're looking at 15 kids

in multiple organ failure.

220. He's right.

Do we have any fomepizole on the rig?

- Only two doses. - Ethanol blocks ethylene glycol.

We don't carry any,

and we don't have time to wait for more ras.

Ethanol.

Are you thinking what I think you're thinking?

Listen, I know it's risky, but at least

it'll keep them alive.

Hey, psychic friend networks, can one of you

translate your thoughts into actual words

so we know what the plan is here.

What's another word for ethanol?

I'm so gonna get fired.

No, this is not for us. This is for the kids.

This is Millie, ten-year-old female.

Heart rate's 92. We've administered saline

and two shots of 80-proof rum.

This is Libby, 11. We started her on 40 mils

of Irish whiskey, we're monitoring her.

Clay and Dexter,

- two Tequila shots each. - They're responding

very well to treatment.

- Bruh. - Bruh.

Nice work, you two.

Hello?

Yes, sir.

Absolutely, right away.

Everything okay?

That was chief Simpson.

He has something urgent to discuss.

So he wants to see me?

No, he wants to see me.

They're right in here.

Who's they?

Chief Simpson.

Wilson. I believe you already know Mr. Hauser.

You pumped krill out of my lungs.

Call me Tripp.

Hen.

And it was a team effort.

This is dawn, myron and my social media whiz kid,

- I know his name... - It's Jensen.

Okay. That doesn't sound right.

Tripp, you've... You've really recovered well.

Real talk?

I didn't get how close I came until I saw the video.

What video?

I mean, it's crazy. I mean, clearly,

I'm dead. And then you come along, and I'm not dead.

See? Dead, not dead. Dead, not dead. Dead, not dead.

It really was a team effort.

I mean, Eddie was the one

- that jumped off the bridge. - I didn't see that part,

I was dead.

But when I woke up... It was your face that I saw.

My guardian angel.

TikTok loved it.

I mean, they still hate Tripp, but they love you.

And I want to reward you for it.

You're very kind, but you don't have to reward me.

I was just doing my job.

Macronova has offered to donate $5 million to the lafd.

You need firetrucks, I need goodwill. Win-win.

It's not just trucks, Wilson.

95% of our budget goes to staffing.

A donation like this would be a shot in the arm

for new equipment, upgrades to the firehouses.

We could expand counseling services

to our firefighters and their families.

Well, that-that is incredible, chief.

I just need my guardian angel to do me a tiny little favor.

Space?

Tripp hauser is sending you to space?

Low-earth orbit.

We'd go up about a hundred miles, we do two laps

around the planet, and then we come back down.

You know why he's doing this, right?

This is all damage control.

Tripp hauser is trying to fix his image

by sending a normal person to space.

Two normal people.

I got him to give me a plus-one.

What?

You didn't think I was gonna leave my rocket scientist wife

down here on earth?

You're coming to space with me.

I-I'm going to space?

You're going to space, babe!

I can't go to space.

What?

This has been your dream.

Since... always.

I am a serious scientist.

Also, there are several pending lawsuits

between him and the people I work for.

I doubt he'd even let me near the launchpad.

Well, if you're not going, I'm not going.

Like hell you're not.

One of us gets to go to space.

Alone?

Well, you still have your plus-one.

Take one of the guys with you.

Yeah.

But which one?

Don't ask me to solve all of your problems.

I just gave up going to space.

You're late.

I had class.

Good.

I was afraid maybe both my children had abandoned

their academic pursuits.

What?

Your brother, he dropped out of high school.

Since when?

Day I turned 18.

I got a job at that coffee shop on la brea instead.

Is that why we always have pastries at the house now?

I'd take comfort in not being the last one to know

if it wasn't for the fact that he was living

under your roof when it happened.

How did you miss it?

You're his mother. How did you miss it?

What is that supposed to mean?

Maybe if you showed up

a little bit more, mom, you'd have a clue

about what goes on with your kids.

I show up.

Every time we invite you somewhere, you say no.

Or, worse, you say yes

- and then cancel an hour before. - That is not true.

Every Thursday night,

may and I go to hen and Karen's house for a home-cooked meal.

You are always invited, and you never show up.

I know, but I... Sunday morning,

FaceTime pancakes with dad.

Monday night, bachelor

- with buck. - Bobby's dedication ceremony.

I'm sorry. I wanted to be there.

- I really did. - But you weren't.

We lost Bobby and we lost you, too.

That is not true.

I am here, now, and I am still your mother.

Harry.

You haven't been our mother since Bobby died.

Harry.

Harry, wait.

Yo!

You heard about Tripp hauser's offer?

The chief told me.

Although, when he said it, sounded more like an order,

not an offer.

Figured you might want to be prepared

for any close encounters you might make up there.

It was my idea.

Didn't say it wasn't.

Didn't say it was.

So Karen must be super stoked.

She finally gets to go to space.

She said she can't go.

What?

Why not?

Something about her work and a lawsuit

- with hauser. - But you still get to go, right?

She wants me to.

But I don't know that I still want to go without her.

Well, you have your plus-one.

You can bring someone else.

Someone else?

Come on, ravioli.

I think we all know who hen's gonna take.

Do we?

Don't we?

Listen, hen, don't let them pressure you, okay?

This is your decision.

Thanks, buck.

I always got your back.

And if you decide to take me to space,

- then... - Unbelievable.

What makes you think that?

He called about a smell.

You know how many calls we get about smells?

"My neighbor smokes." "My neighbor vapes."

"My neighbor likes to make spicy foods."

People actually call about that?

They call about everything.

Said "25"?

Gina moningham. Wow.

Here since the '90s.

Hello? LAPD.

Is anyone home?

Maybe she went out.

Open the door.

O-Kay.

That's a smell.

Hello?

Is anyone here?

Ma'am?

Gina?

I'm sergeant Athena Grant with the LAPD.

Ma'am.

Damn.

Dispatch.

This is 727-l-30.

We have a 10-55...

I got a pulse but barely.

What the hell is that?

I mean, it looks like she's been dead for weeks.

My guess?

Necrotizing fasciitis.

Bacterial infection.

She's been rotting alive in here.

Alone.

She's not stable enough to move.

Let's get her heart rate up.

Temp is way down. Fluid in her lungs.

I don't even know how she's breathing.

Get her prepped for transcutaneous pacing.

On it.

- Administer analgesic. - Pulse is down to 43.

Pressure dropping.

Pads in place and secure.

Checking ecg complex.

Pulse is 31. No heartbeat.

Put the output curve to maximum.

100 beats per minute.

Cap, what can I do?

Coming up on capture.

Transcutaneous pacing.

Ready?

Hold on.

Initiating in three, two, one.

Chest muscles contracting.

Keep that going.

I got a sinus rhythm.

- She's stabilizing. - Okay, okay.

Good, good. Well done, guys.

I've got affected areas on her hands,

arms, upper torso, neck, and face, but no apparent injury.

On this hand, it's like a knife wound, right?

Or a soup can wound.

Foodborne bacteria and she didn't get it checked out.

Or didn't care to.

Let's get in the ambulance, try to keep her alive

en route to the hospital. Come on.

You're restocking the ambulance?

I had some free time.

Thought I'd put it to good use.

Well, it looks good.

It smells good.

That's the air freshener.

You know me... always ready.

No matter the environment.

Does anyone want an afternoon pick-me-up?

Vanilla latte.

With oat milk. Extra hot.

Thanks, buck.

You're bringing her coffee?

You're restocking already stocked ambulances.

Okay, guys, this is getting a little...

firefighter Wilson.

Just the person I was looking for.

I'm the 118 firefighter of the month?

- Since when is this a thing? - That certificate

is suitable for framing.

Plus, it comes with a $50 gift card.

- So it's a bribe. - How much was that latte, buck?

I used petty cash.

So you bribed her with other people's money. Okay.

You're making up fake awards so she can take you

- as her plus-one. - I don't need

to make up fake awards.

And it sounds as if you don't think she deserves it.

Well, I disagree.

Congratulations, firefighter.

And, by the way, if you were to choose me,

just know that I wouldn't be going as your boss...

I'd be going as your best friend.

Come on. We're gonna play that card?

Nearly two decades as her best friend.

That's not a card. That's a full deck.

- We are still best friends, right, hen? - Chim.

Maybe I should play the "guy who actually"

"saved hauser's life" card.

No one told you to jump off of that bridge.

You get no card.

I didn't need to be told.

Actually, Diaz, you do need to be told

to do something like that. You don't just jump in.

That's stupid and reckless, like buck.

In fact, you should probably be written up for something

- like that. - I'll remember that, han.

That's "captain han" to you.

You're just a temp.

You know what? I didn't even want to go to space.

But you know what feels good right now?

Space.

Give me some.

We're treating the infection with antibiotics.

Has she woken up?

- Said anything? - She's been unconscious

since she was brought in.

Though, given her wounds,

that might not be the worst thing.

Right.

Did our staff speak

with you about tracking down Ms. Moningham's family?

She didn't have an emergency contact on record.

No, we haven't found anyone yet.

I hope you do.

It makes a difference if someone cares.

I come in peace.

Also with lager.

You gonna write me up if I say no?

No. I've laid down the weapons of intergalactic war, okay?

All right.

Technically, I think we should be at hen's doorstep

with these apology beers.

Yeah.

I already tried calling her.

She sent me to voicemail.

Me, too.

You know everybody's really glad that you're in charge, right?

I spend half the day trying to convince myself

that I can actually do this and the other half

waiting for chief Simpson to finally tell me

he's found a real captain to take over.

You could be the real captain.

All you got to do is take that damned test.

I don't know why you won't.

It just doesn't seem right, you know?

It feels... disrespectful

for me, of all people, to try to step into Bobby's shoes.

Yeah, these last six months

without Bobby have been tough enough.

Someone coming in from the outside?

They won't stand a chance.

We're lucky to have you.

Most of the time.

Thanks.

I miss him.

Me, too.

Truth is, I don't want to go to space.

I-I don't even like flying domestically.

But chim was yelling at Eddie

and Eddie was yelling at chim and...

I just... I didn't want to be left out, you know?

The-the weird part was... After hen walked away...

i-I turned around...

half expecting to see Bobby there.

Shaking his head and giving me that...

"What were you thinking?" Face.

O-Obviously, he... He wasn't there.

I even miss his looks of disappointment.

Buck.

You have to stop. It's past his bedtime.

Yeah, yeah.

Say good night, buck.

Okay.

We'll pick this up tomorrow.

I went to see Gina in the hospital today.

I don't think she was always this way.

She... Had a different life before.

People who cared. People who would've called.

Can't help but wonder if...

They stopped calling or she stopped answering or...

She's not you.

It's hard, being around people who loved him.

Even my own kids.

I know that sounds crazy, but...

that's how I feel.

That's why I didn't go to the dedication.

I mean, I knew it was important.

And lord knows he deserved the honor.

But I also knew that I couldn't take sitting there,

listening to all the great Bobby Nash stories.

It just hurt too much.

I don't want to talk about him.

I just want to talk to him.

And I can't do that.

Ever again.

Athena.

You get to take whatever time and grieve however you need.

Karen and I are gonna keep inviting you to dinner,
