[DISPATCH RADIO CHATTERING]

Ohl!
Jeez.

Okay. Thank you.
Thank you for waiting.

| always forget
the goddamn camera.

You know, the other day,
after Damian’s graduation,

we get home,
he goes to bed,

and all of a sudden
| realize,

| didn’t take
one picture of him.

Right.
Poor kid.

| made him get up

and put back on
his class A's.

Come on, they’re
all in there.

| need you to tell me
he’s going to be okay.

Did | not get him into this
firehouse? You don’t trust me?

Look, this is
the same firehouse

that was on the cover
of the Post last week.

Let’s see, what was it?
Oh, Jesus Christ.

"Cancer boy
smokes bravest."

Okay. It’s the
New York Post, all right?

Second of all, he couldn’t be
in a safer firehouse, okay?

It’s like getting
hit by lightning, or,

you know, eaten by a shark.

The chances of it
happening again here,

it’s like a million-to-1.

Ten million-to-1. It’s like

Listen, him being here--

Mm-hm?

It’s not what | want, okay?

But it’s what he wants.
Uh-huh.

And so | am busting butt

trying to be all supportive
and happy and shit,

but you, | need you

to tell me that everything’s
gonna be okay

so that | don’t go out of my
goddamn mind with worry.

| need you to tell me that
he’s not gonna get hurt.

Sheila, he’s a goddamn
fireman now, okay?

| mean, he’s gonna
get hurt. He’s-- Ow!

He’s gonna get,
you know, banged up, but--

Oh!
Hey!

Don’t-- Don’t you hit me again.
Then don’t say that again.

He won't get burnt.
That’s the best | can do.

[SIGHS]
Jesus Christ.

Look, it’s not just me
saying it.

You know that
if Jimmy were here,

he would be saying
the same thing to you.

He would say,

"Just watch after my kid.

What?
Stay close to him."

I’m-- I’m doing that.

Don’t you think he’d be
really proud today?

Oh, boy. Yes, he would
be really proud.

Now, you gotta get
in that kitchen

because Lou’s been in there in
that cave for about 10 minutes,

and believe me,
that is 10 minutes too long.

Ok, all right,
squeeze in, Mikey.

A little more.
Come on.

A little more.
A little more.

Okay, get ready to smile.
Everyone say "V.D."

ALL: V.D.!
Oh. Wait, wait, | didn’t--

Just another one!
Come on. Come on, chill.

I’ve been in this room
with the cake for 10 minutes

and | haven’t eaten it yet.
It's completely unnatural.

Blow them out, big guy.
Let her take another.

All right, yay!
Yay!

[ALL CHEERING]

Congratulations, probie.
You're now Officially a member

of the brotherhood of
dysfunctional action junkies.

It is gonna be an honor
and a privilege

to make your life
a living hell every day

Yes.
for the next year.

Shawn, | hope that you’re not
talking about hazing,

‘cause in this day and age,

| think it’s something that
the department would frown upon.

DAMIAN:
Mom, stop.
Hazing is a rite of passage.

| wouldn’t be a real
firefighter without it.

That is a very mature
attitude you're displaying.

I’m happy
to hear you say that.

You just keep that in mind

when we treat you
to a walk with Fido.

[ALL LAUGH]
What's that one again, Frank?

That’s when you go out
on the sidewalk,

find a steaming lump
of dog shit,

put it in the guy’s boots
and hope for a really long call

so you can watch him
walk around in shit.

Or the San Diego Charger.

Oh! When they replace the bath
mat with the electrical blanket

and when the guy
gets out of the shower

and steps on and gets shocked?

No, that’s the San Quentin.

Sure? Isn’t the San Quentin

when you attach a car battery
to a metal chair,

and make it the only place
where a guy can sit for lunch?

No, no, that’s the Jumper Seat.
Oh, Jumper Seat, yeah.

There’s too many,
you're making me sweat.

There’s not that many.
There’s the Shits and Giggles,

there’s the Toledo Wake-Up Call.
LOU: That’s a classic.

Of course, the Spic ’N Span.
What's the Spic ’N Span?

Oh, the Bald
and the Beautiful.

LOU: Oh, yes!
Why, what’s that?

Why, what is that? What is it?

The Bald and Beautiful is,

you take a guy’s shampoo
and empty it out

and refill it with Nair.
So when he’s, uh--

We don't really
do that one anymore.

We kind of cast that one out.
Yeah, right, right.

It’s not cool. My pubes didn’t
grow back for, like, two months.

Like a 10-year-old boy.
That was the only time

your looks actually matched
your intellect.

Okay, | think that
this has been super fun,

but I’m gonna go to church
now and start praying.

Mama, don’t leave yet.
Don’t leave me with the baby.

Thought you were gonna come out
on a couple of runs,

hang out for a couple days.
You're so funny. No, I’m fine.

Because | know that Damian
is in good hands.

And he’s being watched
over by a great bunch of guys.

And Tommy.
SHEILA: And Tommy.

So funny.
[OTHERS LAUGH]

Hey, look, he is now
Officially part of the family,

and you are
in capable hands.

And | think we got, Tommy,
a little something.

Yes, we do.

We have your dad’s
spare bunker jacket

which he wore several times
as his backup.

But now,
it is officially yours.

He would have been proud.

Yeah. Jimmy would be
real proud.

Jimmy is proud.
LOU: We all are.

TOMMY:
And his mother’s crying.

That’s not why we did it.
I’m okay.

Need to take another picture.
No, no, no, Sheila,

I'll take the picture.
You get in, come on.

| got it, | got it.
| don’t know if | wound it.

No, | got it, | got it.

You okay?
SHAWN: Ah, there it is.

Franco, move your big head.

Let Mikey get in, come on.

Okay. Okay, Tommy,
look up. Look up.

And one, two--

Yeah!
[ALL CHEERING]

It’s gonna go really well on
your living-room wall, Sheila.

Thank you, honey.
Yeah, no problem.

Okay, you guys.

Now, Damian, you be safe.

And | will see you tonight,
okay?

No, none of that stuff.
Aw. Come on.

Oh, no, no, you guys.

It’s okay.
It’s totally okay.

Okay.
[ALL LAUGH]

SHEILA:
All right, guys, bye.

See you, Sheil.
Bye.

So nice of your mother
to stop by.

All right, kids,
the party’s over, I’m afraid.

It’s time to suit up. And let’s
get some work done around here.

Yeah.

But first,
here is to Damian!

Oh!
Yes!

To Damian!
To Damian!

Yeah!
Yeah!

To Damian!
Yes!

To Damo!
Damo!

[ALL LAUGHING]

| got a el duble.

Oh! Yeah!

Yeah,
nice and pretty.

Nice.
Wait, wait, wait.

Oh.
Oh, no.

Oh!

To Damian!
Yes, yes!

Let’s get at.
Yes.

There you go.
To Damian!

Come on, Damian.

Have some fun.
There you go.

Have some fun.
Ohl!

Pistachios,
peanuts, yeah?

Whoo!
Come on. Come on.

ALL [CHANTING]:
Cake, cake, cake, cake!

ALL:
Yeah!

[LOU LAUGHS]

FRANCO: Yes!
[LAUGHS]

Beautiful.

There!
Nice!

That was a good one, probie.
Very nice.

Yeah, probie!
| knew it.

FRANCO: Making Dad proud.
Thank you.

The good stuff.

All right. Now, uh...
[WHISTLES]

Clean up all this shit.

Yep.
What?

No, it’s, uh, no questions,
probie. Clean it up.

Now, punk. Bee-atch.

[CHUCKLES]

Hey, uh, welcome to
the 62 Truck, kid.

[CHUCKLES]

Um, this is called the, uh,

Spic ’N Span, by the way.

Minus the spic.

[LAUGHS]

| really gotta
clean this all up?

Yep. Don’t worry,
it could be worse.

How?

Jesus Christ. It’s a brass ring
about 7 inches in diameter

with an adjustable clasp
on one side.

Are you actually telling me
you made it all the way

through probie school without
seeing a universal hose coupler?

Lou, | searched through
the entire basement.

| didn’t see anything
matching that description.

Well, then you know what,
Damian? Search again.

And don’t come back to me
until you find one, okay?

All right. Is this one of those
wild-goose chase things

where it doesn’t exist and
you're just busting my balls?

[CHUCKLES]

Well, well, well,
you know what, Damian?

Uh, you caught me.

So, uh, what do we do now?

| Know. Why don’t you
leave me your boots

and go out onto the street and
find me a big pile of dog shit?

I'll Keep looking
for the coupler.

That’s a good choice.
See you.

Bye-bye.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Universal hose coupler?

Always a favorite.
| love it.

Hey, uh, Lou,
did you get a call

about this Johnny Bones thing
tomorrow night?

Oh, yeah, 7:00 way out in
Brooklyn someplace?

What, are they dedicating
something to him?

Yeah, like a banquet hall
or something like that.

It’s great.
The guy dies 9/11,

it takes them eight years
to get a memorial together.

Probably organized
by the bunch of dipshits

putting up the Freedom Tower.
At the rate that’s going,

they'll have to dig us
out of our graves

to go to the unveiling.
We should make an appearance,

show our respect.
Yeah.

Those things are always
swelling with assholes.

Yeah. Hey, but you
remember his widow,

Kim-- Kimmy?
Oh, yeah, yeah.

Well, you know
she’s gonna be there.

And, uh, the word is,

she took a big chunk
of that widow money,

bought herself some tits
to match that ass.

BOTH:
We should probably go.

Just--
You know, for the--

Hey, chief.
[GRUMBLES]

Half a day today,
chief?

What’s that supposed
to mean, asshole?

Um, nothing,

just being
not funny, | guess.

Yeah. Well, I’m a little
late getting to the house,

but | was right on time
for my 7:30 reaming

down at headquarters.

It’s funny, they’re still
a little miffed about

the whole cancer kid stealing
one of our vehicles things.

They’re looking for someone’s
head to be served up.

I’m just trying to figure
out who that’s gonna be.

[WHISPERS]
Yeah, that’s a toughie.

Keep writing, Lou.
I’m thinking Gavin.

LOU: Hey.
Oh, hey.

| just heard Damian
swearing a blue streak

down in the basement.

The old universal
hose coupling?

Correct.
| remember that one.

Yeah. We just pulled it
on you last week. What’s this?

Oh, it’s a benefit
for Garrity

to help him out with
his medical expenses.

At the bar this Saturday
night, my band’s playing.

We’re totally
gonna rock.

You're not putting these up
outside the house, are you?

Yeah, Jesus Christ.
Exactly what we need.

Advertising for our totally
illegal under-the-table joint.

No, no, they’re just for us,

and a few guys at other
houses who know Sean, you know?

Check it out, dude.

Apache Stone?

Yep. That’s my band.

It sounds like a Native
American gift shop in Tucson.

Yeah, or maybe a
casino in Connecticut.

We're called Apache Stone
because | have

native blood
running through my veins.

And retard blood
running through your brain.

All through the brain.
MIKE: No, I’m serious.

I’m like 2 percent
northeast Apache.

Like, my mom traced her
bloodline on the Internet.

You’re Native American?

Yeah, but only like 2 percent,
so what does that come out to?

What part of you?
Well, maybe one ball.

You should rename the band
and call it Cherokee Testicle.

[BOTH LAUGH]
Pawnee Nut Boys.

MIKE:
Yeah, you guys can laugh
all you want,

but wait till
you hear us play.

Yeah, you know, he’s right.
We should probably

save this laughter
till we hear him play.

| suggest we pack the place
full of hot chicks.

Only thing that’s gonna
keep it from clearing out

as soon as Comanche Ball Sack
starts playing.

You know what, Frank?
That’s not a bad idea, actually.

Maybe you could have
your girlfriend

invite
some of her friends.

You know, I’m sure she’s
got some hot fillies

in her stable, right?
And a couple of bulls too.

Carla’s not a dyke, Lou.

No, Frank,
of course she’s not.

But you know, if she is,
| mean, Frank says he’s getting

the best sex of his life
with this chick, right?

And if she’s straight,
then cool.

She invites some
straight friends.

FRANCO:
Carla’s not gay.

You guys got any doubts,
you can ask my cock.

No, Frank,
of course she isn’t, dude.

But you know, if she is,

then what, she invites
a bunch of hot lesbos,

and we all get a shot at getting
some of that hot sex

Frankie’s getting, right?
It’s a win-win, man.

Some nasty lesbo ass.
Ha-ha!

l’d appreciate it
if you guys cut the crap.

| finally find a woman
I’m happy about

and I'd like a little support
from my brothers,

if you don’t mind.
Franco, we’re all excited

about you and Carla,
but come on, man.

You gotta admit,
your boo is a little butch.

A little? Christ, if her
testosterone ever blows,

we’re gonna have to get
Red Adair in here to cap it.

Red Adair?

You know, John Wayne
played him in a movie.

John Wayne?
SHAWN: Yo! Shit!

Hey, hey.

Hey. They finally
let you out, huh?

| was gonna stay a couple
extra days in hospital,

but | figured
| can’t afford it,

so, you know...
| gotta sit down now.

Oh, yeah.
So what’s up, man?

When are you coming
back to work?

Uh, soon, | think.

Doctor said | gotta take
two weeks’ rest at home,

then another couple weeks
to get my strength back

at the gym and whatnot.
But soon, so...

Do you think maybe you should
go home and rest up, dude?

You don’t wanna overdo it.
No, bro.

| mean, that’s just it.
| mean, |, you know,

this whole experience
has made me realize,

I’m gonna totally overdo it
from now on.

I’m just gonna live
my life bigger, you know?

Second chance, right?
Yeah, yeah. | mean,

as tired as | am, and as much as
this whole thing has beat me up,

| wish you guys
could be me right now.

Because I’m telling you,

when they rolled me
out of the hospital

in that wheelchair,

and | looked up at that
beautiful blue sky,

| stared at it like it was

a giant naked picture
of Jessica Alba.

Whoa.

Well, | wish we were, dude.

And | took this breath in,
right?

And the air tasted
so sweet and good and thick,

and | just...

| started crying, you know?

Weird.
And | thought to myself,

"Oh, great, I’m gonna be
that guy that cries now,

like when the wind blows."

That’s not why I’m crying.
I’m crying because

I’ve been
living my life so small.

You know? And I’m tired of that.

I’m gonna live it
to the fullest,

It’s not about being something
other than a firefighter.

| love what we do.

I’m just saying, you know,
| wanna do more

and live better,
and be that firefighter,

that guy, that friend,
that everything, you know?

| mean, God forbid
the cancer comes back,

or we all burn up in a fire.

| wanna be able to say
to myself as the lights go out,

"You know what? | didn’t live
a perfect life.

"But hey,

| lived that bitch
to the fullest.”

Wow.
Wow.

MIKE:
Dude.

[CLEARS THROAT]

You okay?

Yeah, | just talked a lot.

That was really-- I’m tired.
Here, man, have a smoke.

It’ll make you feel better.
Oh, that’ll be great.

FRANCO: Yeah.
Thanks, pal.

FRANCO:
Oh, yeah, baby. Bam.

Mm, mm, mm.

[MIKE CHUCKLES]

It’s good to be alive.

ALL:
Yeah!

[COUGHING]

MIKE:
Easy, easy.

This is it. We're taking off.
You gonna be okay?

Yeah, yeah, | think so. As long
as | don’t get cancer again.

Yeah, well, you know,

not to bring you down
or anything, but you know,

considering the type
of cancer you had,

and the end notes of
Ground Zero, the chances of you

having a reoccurrence
are pretty strong.

So, yeah, anyway, listen,

| broke the dot selector
on the toaster.

Uh-huh.
TERRENCE: You know,

| Know money’s been
a little tight,

so | left you 5 bucks
to cover it.

Between you and l,
it was gonna break anyway.

| figure it’s the least
| can do for my kid brother.

So hey,

it’s good to see you.

Okay, bro.

What’s he doing, Ma?

It’s like a trap
or something?

Calm down.
He just wants a hug.

From me?
Yeah.

From you. Come on, man.
Jesus.

Go ahead.
Jesus.

| think we’re getting out
just in time, Ma.

Come on.
Yeah, whatever. Fine.

Thanks for coming.

Hey!
Whoa, what’s the matter?

What the hell are you doing?
That was lovely.

You bumped me
with your package.

You don’t package bump
when you hug.

What the hell
are you talking about?

You're supposed to pull your
package back when you hug a man.

My package was pulled back.
Try reading the manual

once in a while.
The manual?

| was-- my hips
were all out, man.

You didn’t pull
your pelvis back

like you’re supposed to,
you dick weed.

Just take your shit and go.
You're unbelievable.

You're just a dick.
Get out.

Don’t let the door hit you
on the way out, jerk off.

See you, squirt.
Okay, yeah,

with your fruity
shopping bags.

"Oh, look at me,
| got cancer. Help."

[BLOWS RASPBERRY]

| don’t care
what he says.

It did my heart good seeing
you boys be sweet like that.

Oh, yeah?

Do | need
to pee one more time?

Nah, I’m good.

Take care, kid.
All right, Ma.

Hey, Ma, there’s something
| want to say to you.

Now that I’m feeling
clearheaded,

| think I’m just gonna
come right out and say it.

| Know that you love Terrence
more than you love me, okay?

And you don’t have to say
anything, because it’s clear.

And | don’t know
why that is.

Maybe it’s because, you know,
he’s a big baby,

even though he’s smart
and all that stuff.

Maybe it’s because
he stayed and | didn’t,

or he needs you more than | do.
| don’t know.

Or maybe because you’re
getting older and you realize

that as you get older,

you're gonna need him
as much as he needs you.

It doesn’t matter.
| just want you to know

that I’m aware of it,
and I’m okay with it.

Sean...
Yeah.

You're right.

Good, good. Really?

I’m sorry.

| love Terrence
much more than | love you.

Yeah. Well, much more?
| mean,

| was thinking it would be
like a little bit more.

Jesus, it feels good to
have it out in the open!

Now it’s my turn!

Great, okay. Yeah.
Oy!

Hey, don’t listen
to your brother.

You know how to hug
just fine.

Thanks.
And don’t look for that $5.

| took it for cigarettes
for the drive.

Okay.
Later, sweetheart.

All right, Ma.

Thanks for coming.
I'll call you.

I’m gonna
try this one on.

Cool.
Oh, yeah.

Can | try
the blue one too, Mom?

Yeah, honey.
Honey, try them both.

Okay, we'll be waiting
right here.

Did you hear that?
Yeah.

Yes, she just called me Mom.
| know.

Not Mommy. | am Mom again.

She’s coming back to us.

Yep.
Oh.

Congratulations, Mom.

Ah, not now, big boy. We don’t
have time. Oh, you know what?

Unless we sneak into one
of the changing rooms

and | give her
a bunch of dresses.

We could have a quickie.

But, like, a real
"quickie" quickie.

’m-- I'm fine with that.

| just was actually
just giving you a hug.

Really?
Yeah.

Oh, oh. Because,
you know, | just--

| thought that it was
like a sexy hug.

No, it was just a hug.
You know, like a "hug" hug.

Yeah, | don’t--

We don’t--
You know what?

Let’s just forget
the "hug" hugs, okay?

Okay.
Okay.

| just thought, you Know, since
we’re kind of doing it again,

it might be nice to throw in
a hug or a "hug" hug, you know,

every once in a while, and--
Hey, Tommy,

forget the goddamn hugs,
okay?

We are being nice
to each other

to gain back our daughter’s
love and affection.

This--
We’re having sex

because it is mutually
pleasurable, right?

Yeah.
Great.

Ahem. | understand.
| just thought, you know,

| mean,
if we’re having sex,

we could also be affectionate
to each other.

Oh, God, no, Tommy.

No, if you were
affectionate with me,

| might actually
start liking you.

And then we’re gonna go down
that same old trap again.

Uh-uh.
Okay.

You wanna explain that?

We’re having sex, but you--
You don’t like me?

Well, after everything
we've been through,

do you even
have to ask?

Yeah, | do.
| mean--

You haven’t--
We’re having sex.

But you don’t like me?
That’s what you--

Yes, which makes it better.

All right.
That’s bullshit.

You have to like me.

Oh, okay, well, Tommy,
of course, okay?

Of course | like you.
| do.

You know, | just--

| don’t "like you"
like you.

You know what it is?
| love you,

| love you.
Uh-huh.

In a deep
and cavernous way.

You know, that is streamlined
with ribbons of hate--

--and disdain.

Yeah?
And you know, resentment.

Okay? But | am focusing
right now on the sex.

Because the sex is great.

Yeah.
Okay? So let’s just forget

all about the, like, the love
and the hugs and the ribbons

and the hate,
and let’s focus

on the hot, steamy,
sneaky sex. Okay?

Yeah.
Okay.

So do you want to go in there
and scope out the changing rooms

while | get about 15 dresses
for her to try on, or not?

Well, of course.
Okay, okay.

Hey.
This is the one, Mom.

This is the one | want.
This is it.

That’s-- That’s great.

Yeah.
Yeah.

That’s--
Okay.

Come on, let’s go pay for it.
All right.

Okay. It’s so cute.
Look at it.

Hm.

Holy shit.

[ALL CHATTERING]

SHAWN:
Hey, hello, Tommy! Tommy!

FRANCO:
Hey, man.

How you guys doing?

What’s going on?
Hey, nothing.

Last time | checked,
this was a party, right?

That’s right, yeah.

Why don’t you guys just
slow it down a little bit, huh?

Oh, ain’t no slowing down.
Nah, none of that.

We’re living life
the Sean Garrity way.

You don’t do it small,
you do that shit

B-I-G. Big, son!

No regrets, man.

A sky full
of Jessica Alba.

Yeah. A sky full of
Jessica Alba’s ass.

Skate, skate, bang, bang.

BOTH:
Bitches!

Yeah, well, she does have
a nice, little...
Yeah.

Somethin’.
Good luck with that.

It’s round.

Did you work
with Bonesy?

No.

Friend of the family?

You could say.

| say forget the family.

| wouldn’t mind being
a friend of Kim’s.

| mean, | know she’s remarried.
But | mean,

who wouldn’t mind
tapping that ass?

And those new boobs?
| mean, talk about

widow money being well spent.
Jesus Christ.

You know, instead of hanging
that stupid plaque on the wall

in some shitty
banquet hall,

| think that
they should hang it

right underneath
that rack of hers,

so whoever
the lucky bastard is

who’s drilling her

knows whose blood,
sweat, and tears, and life

he owes for that magnificent
new set of tetons.

You’re the new husband,
aren't you?

Nice talking to you.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, can | get a Bushmills?

Two fingers, please.
You got it.

How you doing?

Great, I’m making a complete
dick hole of myself.

Good.

Bonesy’s wife is really
showing off the new tits, huh?

Yeah, well, you know,

don’t let her new husband
hear you say that.

You said something
about the new tits to--

| didn’t, not really.

Well, | didn’t mention the
word "tits" or "titties."

You said "tetons,"
didn’t you?

How do you
know these things?

Yeah, | just--
Where’s the plaque at?

It’s over here.

They did a pretty
good job on--

Nice picture.
Oh, that’s nice.

Wow.
Yeah.

This is awesome.
The flowers are fake, though.

You're kidding me.
No.

What, she has no money left
after she got the new nipples?

Who could blame her?
MAN: Hey, guys.

Guys, can we ask you to step
away from this area?

We’re shooting some footage
and we wanna see

that sign in the background.
Oh, sure. Yeah, yeah. Sorry.

Thanks.
Are you--

Are you shooting something
for the family?

Ah, sort of.
It’s a news thing.

Oh, what are you,
a reporter?

Heh. No. Hi,
I’m Dick Gerard,

state representative
for this district.

Nice to meet to you.
Nice to meet you. How are you?

Oh, he’s a politician.
Yeah.

You know, what memorial service
would be complete without one?

Yeah. You knew
Johnny Bones?

Uh, | don’t know
who you mean.

Johnny Bohannan.
His name’s on the plaque.

Well, sadly, I--
| never met the man.

Well, you know what?
Wherever he is,

I’m sure he’s real
torn up about that.

Do you know what firehouse
he served out of,

or how many kids he had,

or any personal
or pertinent information

about the guy? No?

Maybe we should
find another spot.

Yeah, maybe you should, because
ll tell you something.

We’re firemen, okay?

We’ve been through this drill
before with politicians.

And we understand
what’s going on.

You’re firemen?
Yeah.
Yes.

Oh, great. Well, why don’t we
get the camera started here

and we can get the three of us
having a serious discussion

about the issues that
you guys are facing?

Oh, good.
Yeah, well,

I’m glad you turned the camera
on, because you know what?

In about a minute, I’m gonna
stick that camera

right up your ass, okay?
So you can kind of perform

your own little colonoscopy,
you know what | mean?

Guys like you-- | love you.
You running for office again?

Gotta get reelected?
Need some votes?

Is that what this
whole camera--

You guys are always
doing this.

You know, 9/11, after--
They always came down

and said hello to us
and everything else.

We thought you were
our best friends.

We thought maybe
we'd get a pay raise.

But we got nothing, okay?
You guys are all the same.

Why don’t you turn the
goddamn camera off, okay?

Wait, no, no. Keep it rolling.
Seriously, turn the camera off.

What?
Look, you’re a fireman, right?

Yeah.
What was your name again?

Tommy Gavin, 62 Truck.
[LOU MUTTERING]

No, it’s okay, Lou. It’s fine.
Don’t worry about it.

LOU:
Tommy-- Tommy--

Look, fellas,

| Know you’re angry.
Yeah?

| Know you’re not angry at me,
you're angry at the system--

Yeah, you know what?
You're absolutely right.

| am angry at the system,
but unfortunately for you,

the system
doesn’t happen to be here.

Will you hold my drink, please?
And--

What are you doing?
Get off of me! Hey!

[ALL SHOUTING]

[GLASS SHATTERS]
Tommy!

[ALL GRUNTING]

Wait a minute, Tommy!

[ALL GRUNTING AND SHOUTING]

Son of a bitch!

[FRANCO LAUGHING]

FRANCO:
It tickles!

Baby, you think
you're gonna be able to get

some of your girlfriends
to come to this thing?

As it stands,
all we have to offer is,

like, no food, cheap booze,

and possibly some
really shitty music.

CARLA: It’s for a good cause?
FRANCO: Yeah.

Yeah, we’re just trying
to help a brother out

with some hospital bills.
Ooh!

Which I’m gonna
need some help with

if you don’t stop
twisting those bad boys!

Oh! Ah, come on! Oh.
You better be nice to me,

or my girlfriends
won’t come to your party.

No, seriously, baby, invite
anybody you can. You know,

especially if they're
good-looking.

Super hot will be preferable,
but you know, hey,

straight, gay, it doesn’t matter
as long as they’re hot.

What did you say?

Nothing.

You said "straight or gay."

Why did you say that?
No reason.

Why did you say--
Oh, oh! Oh, not the boys again.

Ah. Okay, baby. It was
the guys, all right?

You know, they met you,
and, you know,

they said they were picking
up a slight vibe-- Oh!

What vibe?
Uh--

Aah! Aah! Ah.

Oh, God, | can’t tell
if that hurts

or if it feels
really good.

Oh! It hurts,
it hurts, it hurts.

Okay, it was just a very
slight, very subtle,

uh, you know, barely
recognizable lesbian thing.

Uh, from me?
Yeah.

Oh, well,
that’s not a big deal.

It’s not the first time
I’ve been called butch.

Oh.
Oh.

Yeah. You know, plus,
these guys,

they’ve never been between
the sheets with you, so--

[GRUNTS]
They don’t even understand it.

You being lesbian, that’s like
not even remotely possible.

It’s not possible, is it?

You know, if you want
to be worried

about someone’s sexual identity,
I'd worry about yourself.

Uh, excuse me? What?

Well, you know,
a big, strong man

who likes to get manhandled
in bed by a woman?

Okay, first of all,
you're not manhandling me.

What?
No, not at all.

[FRANCO GRUNTS]

No, no! No, no, no. No, no, no,
[YELLS]

[FRANCO GRUNTS]

[SIREN WAILING]

[HORN HONKS]

[GROANS]

It’s okay, calm down.
Get yourself unhooked.

There you go.
Helmet. Okay.

Gloves. Okay.
Jesus Christ.

Door.

Get a load of crispy clean
over here, huh?

You look handsome today, Damian.
You had to say "crispy clean,"

Now I’m gonna be thinking
about doughnuts all day.

Ah.
NEEDLES: Gentlemen,

second truck is gonna be late,
so let’s stay alert.

We got fires on five and six
going up to the roof.

Shawn, Mike, you guys
take the top floor.

Tommy, Franco,
give me a search on five.

Kid, you stay
with Lou on four.

Be advised, 99’s got
a dead hydrant.

It’s time to make
the doughnuts, boys.

Yeah, there we go again. It’s
got to be doughnuts, doesn't it?

Like that’s what’s making you
think it. Come on.

TOMMY:
Hey, Lou,

I’m gonna take, uh, Damian

up to the third floor
with me, all right?

Yeah. I'll take Frankie.
Hey, the chief just told us--

| Know what the chief said.
Move your ass, let’s go.

Come on, hurry up.
Damian, stay close.

Yeah, stand by, chief.
What do we got, boys?

Negative. Fire on five,
Lou’s search was negative.

It smells like a gas leak.
Cock loft is fully involved.

We’re losing that
top floor, man.

All right, we’d better dump
in a second alarm, chief.

Game over, Lou. Back it out.

And we got shit pressure
in these lines.

[OVER RADIO]
You and those mooks,
get out of there!

Copy that.
All right, boys, let’s go.

Hey, wait, guys. | think | heard
something down the hall.

LOU:
We checked it. It’s clear.

No, | heard it too.

Somebody might be down there.
You swept it, right?

Yeah, it’s all clear.
We checked it.

[EXPLOSION]

Christ! Goddamn it!

FRANCO:
What do you think, Tom?

[FAINT SHOUTING IN DISTANCE]

NEEDLES:
Lou, get everybody out now!

The chief says pull out.
We gotta pull out. Let’s go.

All right, boys,
let’s pull out. Let’s go.

TOMMY:
Come on, Damian,
speed it up.

SHAWN:
Ooh.

Hey, what--? Hey, hey!

Goddamn it! Shit.

All right, listen. You take him
out. I'll go get Dami.

All right, go.
And hurry up, will you?

| got a meatloaf in the oven.
Yeah, goddamn it!

It would be a meatloaf, right?

Hey, assholes! Hey!

[DISPATCH RADIO CHATTERING]

NEEDLES:
Where the hell
is everyone?

We had another hallway to check.
You told me we were all clear.

LOU:
| thought we were.
| had to call an audible.

Who are you, Tom Brady?
This thing’s about to go.

I’m pulling the lines out.

Tommy, copy! Tommy?

Got nothing.
Gavin!

Gavin, do you hear me?
Goddamn it, Tommy, answer me!

Get him down!

Way to keep the team
together, Brady.

You tell the boys coach
wants everyone in the kitchen

as soon as we land for a good,
old-fashioned ass reaming. Go!

[SIREN WAILING]

[SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

NEEDLES:
I’m at a loss here, fellas.

| have tried every method
| can think of

to get the message across.

I’ve tried to be a pal,
play nice,

and you take
advantage of me.

It was a miscommunication,
chief.

We thought we left a straggler
or two behind.

We got lost on the
way back, that’s it.

| happened to remember
the floor plan

because | was
at a fire there 15--

NEEDLES: Shut up. Shut up!
You--

When | give the order
to pull out,

that is what |
expect you to do.

I’m in the middle of the street
with my thumb up my ass,

and | don’t know
where anybody is.

|--
What? Shut your mouth, Gavin!

Do you have any idea
the message

you are sending
to this new probie?

What the hell kind of example
are you setting out there?

[SCOFFS]

You don’t get it.

You goddamn morons, do you know
what chemistry is, hm?

Chemistry is
what makes this crew

the best goddamn crew
I’ve ever worked with.

Now, you mess with that
the way you did today,

and | guarantee you,

mark my words,
people are gonna die.

I’m not blaming you.

I’m blaming you.

You stopped being
Tommy Gavin today

and you started playing
mother hen to that kid.

| promised his mother that
| would keep an eye on him.

That’s what | was doing.

You were keeping an eye on him
the same way you keep an eye

on every other goddamn member
of this crew. No different.

You got any special
responsibility to that kid,

it’s to turn him into every inch
the firefighter his old man was.

Because I'll tell
all of you,

we get another Jimmy Keefe
on this crew,

and nothing’s ever
going to touch it.

And I’m not going to let you
assholes screw that up.

All right.

From now on,
Damian is with Lou.

And that solves
your problem.

Now, you hear me?

Yeah.

[SHOUTING]
Do you hear me?!

ALL:
Yes, chief.

Let’s hope so,
assholes.

Wash up.

[SIGHS]

Wow. That shit was brutal.

Yeah, no shit. And probie’s
probably still in the kitchen

trying to wash the
blood off the walls.

What were we doing listening
to Garrity in the first place,

you know? He’s the biggest
retard on the crew.

You know what?
Strike that, second biggest.

Hey, you know what? | think
the chief is right on this one.

On this job and this crew,
there’s only one Tommy Gavin.

And | doubt that any of us
would wanna be him right now.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Sorry?
| said | doubt any of us

would want to be him
right now.

And by him,
| mean you.

You're not even gonna try--
Nope.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Yep.
Yeah?

SHEILA:
Hi. Damian told me
what happened today,

and | need you
to come over right now.

Why?
Come over now.

I'll be waiting for you.

Okay.

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

[THE LOVE ME NOTS’ "BREAK MY
HEART" PLAYING ON RADIO]

? Baby, pick me up
In a big gold car f

"Damian is out with his
friends. Drink this.

Come into the kitchen."

Lou?

[CLEARS THROAT]

[SIGHS]

"Drink this. Look towards
the living room."

Whoo!
[GASPS]

Jesus Christ.
[LAUGHS]

Oh!

[CHANTING]
Tommy is his name.

Firefightin’ is his game.

He’s got Sheila on his mind.

And whoo!
He’s feelin’ fine!

Go, Tommy!

Jesus.

[LAUGHS]

You scared the shit out of me.
Whoo!

Well, you know,
| wanted to thank you

for, uh,
sticking by your word.

You didn’t have to thank me,
| was just doing my job.

Oh, no.
I’m gonna thank you.

I’m gonna thank
the shit out of you.

All right.

[Pre]

Jesus Christ. Oh.

[Pre]

There you go.
Thank you.

[SIGHS]

Mm.
Oh, boy.

Mm.

[SIGHS]

[GIGGLES]

You know,

this being
his first day,

| tell you,
it’s kind of weird.

It’s like for the
first time in months--

Yeah?

| can actually
breathe, you know?

And it’s all
because of you.

Hm. Yeah?
[CHUCKLES]

I’m the greatest.
Yes, you are.

Mm-hm.
[GIGGLES]

Hm, it’s like Knowing that
whenever he goes into a fire,

you're gonna be
right by his side.

It just makes
everything better.

That’s how it’s
gonna be, right?

Uh-huh.

Good. Now--
Yeah?

Get out of here.

Okay. I--
I’m gonna just--

Phew. How about if |
make a sandwich and--

Yes, make a sandwich
and have a drink,

and just make sure that
you lock up before you go.

Okay.

Night.
Bye.

| really like bunnies.

[SIGHS]

Oh, boy.

Hm.

Nice going, lover boy.
Hey.

So you enjoy
yourself?

What do--
What do you mean?

Christmas come a little early
this year, Tom?

| mean, what--

You got-- You got a little
something in your hair there.

[CHUCKLES]

Oh. Yeah.

Relax.

It’s all good. | mean,
| got no choice, right?

That’s the way
it’s gonna be.

I’ve gotta face
the facts.

I’m dead.

| ain’t never coming back.

But she looks good, though.
No, she--

The first time in forever
she’s happy.

Yeah.
Satisfied.

Sleeping
through the night.

Damian’s as safe as any guy
could be on the job, right?

And by the way,

the chief is right.

Damian should definitely
be paired up with Lou.

Yeah.

You can’t focus
on him all the time.

You got enough asses
to cover at that house.

Yeah.
Any firefighter

with a brain under his helmet
should know that.

I’m glad you said that.

That’s pretty close to
what-- What I-- You know,

| was--
| would have said.

So you’re cool?

It’s all good.
All--

It’s all good.

Good.

All right, see you later.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Where are you going?

Probably down--
Down the bar, have a--

You know--
No, you--

You gotta go down
there and tell her, right?

No. No, no, no,
she’s asleep.

But you gotta
go down and tell her.

| told her | was gonna make
a sandwich and then,

you know, | was--
And then lock up.

You know,
we have a deal.

| don’t stay over.
Tom, Tom, Tom.

She’s a woman.
What she says

and what she really wants
never really matches up, right?

Yeah.
So what you gotta do is,

you gotta go down there,

tell her about Damian
being with Lou now.

Yeah.

I’m not gonna do that, bro.
See you later.

You're not leaving,
Tom.

You're not leaving
till you go down there,

lay down next to her,
spoon with her,

and tell her the truth.
Wait, wait, whoa, whoa.

Did you say spoon?

| said spoon.
| don’t spoon.

| Know. | said spoon,
you’re gonna spoon.

| do not spoon.
You will spoon.

You're gonna
spoon with her

like you work ata
Baskin Robbins.

Do you understand me?
I’m not doing it.

Get out there.
Get down there!

Get your ass in there,
lover boy.

I’m going.
Go.

Okay.

[WHISPERS]
I'll be right out
here if you need me.

[WHISPERING]
Great.

I’m not spooning.

[Pre]
