All language subtitles for Fire Country S04E11

We at Cal Fire
pride ourselves...

...Zabel Ridge Fire.

The whole building's gonna go.

Mom! Dad!

Hey, Chloe,

- good to see you.
- Every weekday.

We got Tyler here every weekday.

We've heard that
an arrest has been made.

Can you confirm?

We've made
an initial arrest of your son.

The charge is arson,
for Zabel Ridge.

You told me I could pick the
kind of kid I want to be, Bode.

Kid who does the right thing.

A suspect is in ATF custody

after confessing to
the arson event that caused

the Zabel Ridge Fire.

D.C. Leone,

this must bring you
a great deal of relief.

Obviously, this
hits home for Cal Fire

and for our community.

But for you and your family

personally, it must feel like

justice is within reach.

Next question.

- What can you tell us
about the suspect?
- Can you give us a name?

The suspect is a minor.

That's all I can say
at this time. Next question?

Wait, why is Cal Fire
running a press conference

when ATF made the arrest?

Well, comms thinks that

Cal Fire being the face of this

gives the community
a sense of security.

The Leones are the face of it.

And everything they've
been through with Tyler?

Man, it's screwed up.

Uh, Assistant Unit Chief

Luke Leone. What we
can tell you at this time

is that Firefighter Leone here

was able to inspire
the culprit's confession.

Firefighter Leone,

how were you able to do that?

Firefighter Leone?

Uh...

Because, uh...

Because the suspect
and I were close.

I appreciate you coming out.
Thanks for your time.

Take care.

You made it sound like you were
cozying up to an arsonist.

You named me, handed me the mic.

Yeah, for a lay-up question,
and you choked, man.

I've been investing in the kid
who killed my dad.

Forgive me if my instincts
are a little bit shot.

I get that this is the worst
possible day for REMS tryouts,

but today is the day.
Do you want this or not?

Of course I want it.

Why?

REMS is the elite of the elite.

That's really why you want this?

You have to trust
those Leone instincts.

- Fully.
- Hey, Bode's instincts
are not the problem.

The MacKenzies are.

I mean, they lied to us
about Tyler's murderous crime

the whole time
we were helping them.

Chloe looked as shocked
by Tyler's confession as I was.

Ignorance is not an excuse.

That's parental failure.

You gotta get in there and show
Cal Fire there is no REMS team

without Bode Leone.

And I am going to get
Chloe out of our house.

You heard your chief.

I gotta get Tyler
out of my head.

No, not Tyler.
The arsonist, Bode.

That's what he is.

He cost you your dad.

Don't let him cost you
a place on this team.

Feeling better?

You don't worry about me.

That's kind of my job,

to worry about every
firefighter under my command,

permanent or temporary.

Like Malcolm.

You want to ask how he's doing?

Not good.

Brain swelling won't go down.

He's in surgery. Again.

Jake, I get that you're
upset with me, all right?

I told you

not to send
Malcolm and Bode in after me.

Now look what happened.

I stood on the carpet
with Luke for it.

And I'll do the same with you.

The after-action review
absolved you.

I haven't absolved myself.

Then that makes two of us.

Mom, what...
what are you doing here?

I sat at that booth
at Smokey's for 40 minutes,

but then I see you on the news?

Oh, sorry,
I forgot it was Tuesday.

It got a little busy here.

An arsonist confessed.

I'm dying to know who it is.

Is someone here?

Is it a man?

Oh, my God, do you even know me?

- Wait, is it...
- Sharon?

Um, I want
to give you the key back.

You can put it down.

Um...

the sheets are in the,
uh, they're in the wash,

and this is
the last of our stuff.

I just wanted to say that
I know that it's complicated,

but I want you to know that
I'm grateful to you and Bode

for the rest of my life
for what you did...

Yeah, and I will be haunted
for the rest of mine

by what your kid did,
so get out of my house

before I do something
we'll both regret.

Okay. And, uh...

I'm sorry.

That boy Bode took
under his wing started the fire?

And I let him in our home.

Oh, sweetheart.

Oh, come here. Come here.

Oh...

This is a bad day,
I know. I know.

But don't you worry.
Wait and see.

Mama's gonna
turn it right around.

Shh, it's okay.

All right, gentlemen, line up.

We have
an emergency on our hands.

After County Line,
I bet we can handle anything.

We know you can,

only this time, it's not a fire.

We promised Sacramento this
place would be self-sufficient,

even profitable.

And right now, it's not.

Because the veggies
that we were growing

on the north lot
turned out like this

because the soil was too burned.
Anybody want some?

You want to eat any of it?

Oh, that smells
like a corpse, Cap.

So here's what
has to happen, gentlemen.

We're gonna have to start
all over from scratch,

scrap everything
you boys have already grown.

So, I found a plot of soil

that's a little less
damaged from the fire,

so grab your tools
and your green thumbs.

What if we don't have any?

Then you should find some.

Count 'em down, Tex.

Let's go, boys.

- One, two!
- Three Rock!

- What's he doing here?
- Eve, what the hell?

Yeah, I "parent-trapped"
you two.

Because we said that
the County Line Fire would not

turn into Zabel Ridge,
and that includes

letting an incident
tear our family apart.

So I have some tools,
lumber, some chicken wire,

and I got some new chickens
coming, so I need a new coop.

- This is dumb.
- Come on.

Hey, you can leave
if you want to,

but then you're
quitting on me, my guys

and the chickens.

And you know
Bridget will hold a grudge.

Y'all decide.

Okay.

Bode.

Did you know?

Tyler was the arsonist?

Did I know?

Um... n-no.

No, I didn't know. I can barely
believe that it could be true.

Confession came from
his own mouth.

On the news, it said that
you inspired his confession.

I told him he was a kid that...

that could stand up for
the truth, do the right thing.

- I had no idea...
- You were sending
my kid to jail?

That he lit up
half of Edgewater.

You don't know that.

You don't want to know that.

Why would Tyler

take the fall
for something so bad

if he didn't actually do it?

I don't know.
All I know is that the same kid

who helped you
put out a wildfire

with such passion
cannot be an arsonist.

I gotta go.

What? Wait. Okay, wait.

No, no, no. Wait,
wait. Please. Please.

I know that your family's done

too much for my family already.
I know that.

But Tyler won't talk to me,

and he's alone
and he's scared in jail

and I can't... I can't help him.

And I know
that you cared about him.

You and I both know
that you have the best shot

to get through
to him, so please...

I tried to get through to him.
It didn't work.

This is my one shot
of making the REMS team.

I can't waste it
on a lost cause.

Take it in.
This is the next level

of firefighting right here.

Yeah, it's gonna be no joke.

You ready?

All right.

Good to go?

All right, everybody,
gather around. Listen up.

Okay.

Welcome to Rapid Extraction
Module Support,

aka REMS tryouts.

We are assembling a team

to be called upon
in the toughest of terrain,

the most dangerous
of circumstances,

to rescue the rescuers,

your fellow firefighters.

Now, each of you is here because
you have shown potential

beyond your normal duties.

I say "potential,"

because this will not
be for everyone.

Your interviews
were just the start.

These tryouts will test
not only your ability

to go where no one else can
but they will test

whether or not you even will.

It will test your instinct.

Today, there
will be three trials,

hands-on navigation,

rope rescue,

UTV operation.
That's utility task vehicles.

Now, at the end of the day,

only four of you
will make Cal Fire's

inaugural REMS team.
That means four,

and only four.

So good luck. Grab your gear
and let's get started.

Let's finish setting up.

Leone.

Are you Bode?

My brother says
you're one fierce firefighter,

the way you helped
pull him out of a bad spot

at the County Line Fire.

You're Malcolm's sister?

Eleanor.

Hey, isn't that the firefighter

- from the press conference?
- I wouldn't trust him.

What's he doing here?

What's that all about?

Everybody saw
the press conference.

So?

So we're trying to make a team
that's grounded in instinct.

You unknowingly

befriended the arsonist.
People have thoughts.

What do you think?

I think we're
entitled to question you.

Prove us wrong.

I need more screws.

Any word on Malcolm's surgery?

Look, Jake,

I'm just asking for
a medical update

on a firefighter who was
under my command, all right?

Okay, you know what? Why don't
we just build this thing?

Wait. Is that...?

Yes, it is.

Daddy,

what're you doing here?

And why'd you bring the tractor?

Well, Chief Perez here told me
you were having trouble

- growing some crops.
- Oh, he said all that.

Yep.

I can "parent-trap," too.

Yeah, literally.

- Hey, Dad, wait, those aren't...
- My Lord,

no wonder you needed my help.

These crops aren't fit
to feed my cattle.

Okay. They're not that bad.

Scorched soil like yours

can destroy entire crops.

But now that I'm here,

I can give it
a little extra TLC for you.

Okay, Dad, I am already on it.

And you did not
have to come down here.

Don't seem to be too on it,

by the looks
of things, Tater Tot.

Come on, boys.

I'll show you a thing
or three about farming.

Don't worry,

we won't embarrass you
in front of your pops...

Tater Tot.

Okay, you get
to use that one time.

And you just did.

To our day.

Mm.

Who knew bubbly and fries
would be my new favorite?

- Can you pass the ketchup?
- Yeah.

Thanks.

Aw, maybe ignore it this time.

- No...
- It's Chief Leone.

Um...

as I said at
the press conference,

we cannot release a name.

Nope, the answer is no.

Another reporter?

Yeah, they all just want me
to give them Tyler's name,

and, you know, part of me

thinks he deserves it, but

- there are laws
and he's a minor.
- Mm.

I just wish
it was off my plate now.

Hey, allow me.

- Mom.
- Ah.

It's off your plate. For now.

Give yourself a break, honey.

I'm not sure I know how.

You just follow your mama.

This day is ours, okay?

And so is the pool table.

Come on.

You're scared, aren't you?

I'm a little scared.

You can't rescue 'em
if you can't find 'em,

so this first trial will
test your navigational skills.

No GPS?

No tech crutches whatsoever.

- Old school.
- Yeah, that's right.

Just a map, a compass,
two longs and lats.

You got to show us what you got.

Now, that first coordinate
is unique to each of you.

There, you will find a flag.

Pick it up and you proceed
to the next coordinate.

Damn it. Where?

Whether you make it
to the finish line or not

depends solely on your ability

to find your own way.

20 yards east.

Only one path
to the finish line.

I'm not gonna enjoy
beating the guy

who helped save my brother,

but I'm still gonna do it.

What was that again?
About enjoying the win?

Because I sure am.

This doesn't feel right.

Did you check the pH?

Yeah, I checked it, Dad.
It's normal.

I didn't just
pick a random spot.

Remember,
I also grew up on a ranch.

I don't know what you remember
and what you forgot.

Just like I thought.

Not soaking in.

This soil's so waxy,
it repels water.

It's fine, I'm handling it.

I'm gonna put
a layer of mulch in there

and that'll make it
retain its moisture.

Gonna get rotten cabbages
with this soil.

Better to break through
the hydrophobic layer now,

make a new seed bed.

With hand tools?
That's gonna take forever, Dad.

A tractor with a harrow,
take no time at all.

Of course it would.
But I've asked the state

for a tractor. There's no money.

Forget about the state.

I'm donating mine to Three Rock.

You can plow
all the fields you want now.

You didn't...

Pops really knows his stuff.

All right, everybody, listen up.

Here's the deal.

You four stragglers, stand fast.

We will be doing
progressive cuts,

which means you four,

grab your gear, pack it up.
It's the end of the line.

Come get your names off
the leaderboard before you go.

The rest of you,

grab some water, get some rest,

pray you don't come in last
on the next trial.

And then there were 12.

I can't get cut.

The next time
my brother's in trouble,

I want to be the one
to pull him out.

When my dad died,

all I wanted to do
was go in after him.

If I make REMS,

at least I never have
to stand on the sidelines again.

Hey.

We gotta push all that aside,

just for this one day.

We?

What is this, a fresh start?

Doesn't sound like
a bad idea to me.

Or I could do it alone
and you could eat my dust.

Deal.

Hey.

The arsonist's name got leaked.

How the hell'd
they get his name?

Okay. You're right,

- winning is really fun.
- Oh, oh, oh.

- Don't act like
we're not going again.
- Oh, really?

- Oh, we are. Yes.
- Okay.

I cannot believe you, Sharon.

Oh, do not tell me you are
coming at me, about anything.

Don't pretend like you don't
know what I'm talking about.

Giving my son's name
to the press?

That's crossing a line.

Tyler's a child.
Naming him puts him at risk,

and you did that.

- I did not name your child...
- Oh, really?

...and I don't care
if you believe me.

"A source close to Cal Fire."

I don't know.

I got reporters calling me,
I got Landon calling me.

They had to post a guard
to protect Tyler.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
You need to go.

- This is none of your business.
- Unlike you,

I know my kid, and if she says
she didn't give up your kid,

then she didn't,
so you can just walk yourself

right on out that door.

Go. Shoo.

Shoo.

Mother to mother,

what you did is inexcusable.
You know it.

Oh, my God.

That kid's screwed.

Deserves it.
His whole family does.

I gotta make a call.

Hey, Bode.

All of you, phones away.

All right, listen up.

This second trial
is a group exercise.

But the thing is,

your patients today
will not be dummies.

- We're rescuing live
role-players?
- That's right.

And we're gonna try
to keep them that way.

In REMS,

the rescue doesn't
have to be pretty,

you just have to bring
the people home safe.

Each team will be given ten
minutes to perform the rescue.

If you cannot make that time,

you will be cut.

Now, I know this breaking news
about the arsonist

is weighing heavy
on some of you.

Do not let it.
It is a distraction.

There will always
be distractions.

There will always be another
arsonist, another fire.

That is why there will
always be a need for REMS.

It is how we fight back.

So, since you know the kid,

- you know where he lives, right?
- Hey,

focus and just
give him the damn litter.

Maybe we pay the family a visit.

Eleanor's right.
There's work to do.

You should be madder
than anybody.

I should be
rigging this anchor point,

except you won't shut up.

You good?

LUKE Team Alpha,

seven minutes remaining.

Let's just get you
over here to the edge.

Damn it.

Here you go, bro.

Oh, you really can't
help yourself, can you?

Making calls for other people.

Eve, me.

Malcolm.

I made the call for Eve

because she needed help
with her crops.

And I made the call
at County Line

because you needed help.

I didn't ask for it.

I don't need
your permission, Jake.

I'm your battalion chief.
We're not equals.

You're my number two.

And anybody that I treat
as my number two

would never ask me
to leave them behind.

You can't ask me to do that.

Not as your chief,
not as your friend.

Not fighting for you, man?

I... I won't stand
on the carpet for that.

I'm gonna go
grab some more 2x4s.

All right. Team, ready?

- Ready.
- Ready.
- Ready.

Let's win this trial.

Down on main, down on belay.

There you go.

You're there.

Rescue 1 at patient.

Convert to a raise.

- Rescuer and patient ready.
- Going up.

What the hell happened?

Leone, we just
dropped on safety.

Is the system failing?

Stand by.

ID'd the issue. It's handled.

I've got you.

Four minutes and counting.

You good?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

Man.

Are you good?

You know, my dad, he used to say
that I had the "Edwards Touch."

I could gentle any horse

and that I grew the best
tomatoes in Edgewater.

He believes in you.

He did.

Now, it's just...

I can just feel
his judging eyes on me.

Eh.

You know,

every time
that there was a bad dive,

I'd always try to hit Gabriela
up with some dad advice.

But she always
took it as criticism.

And really, all I was
trying to do was just help.

Guess the difference is
that you're not Greg Louganis.

With all due respect.

Eve!

Tex, you crashed the tractor

into the damn chicken coop?

Are you okay, man?

Aw, man.

What were you
doing on it anyway?

LUKE Team Alpha, ropes trial

completed with 23 seconds
to spare.

Leone!

You tied a square bend, right?

Like this?

That's exactly what I did.

Or did you tie a suicide hitch?

You want to ignore my advice

to push all your crap aside
and let Tyler

affect your focus
and your instinct, that's fine.

But dropping me in the process?
Not cool.

Okay, tiebreaker.

You want to put
something on the line?

I hate myself for saying this,

but I kind of
feel bad for Chloe.

Loser buys dinner? Huh?

The information that
was leaked is high clearance,

so somebody broke the law,

and then they may have
jeopardized the case

- against an arsonist.
- Does it really matter?

Come on. At the end of the day,

her kid did start that fire.

It's gonna come out sometime,
so why not today?

There's a process,
and this isn't it.

Well, I'm still glad you won't
be getting any more calls.

At least that's
off your plate, right?

Oh, my God. Give me my phone.

No, no, no, no, no.

Hey, hey, come on, come on.

We're still having fun, right?

If you don't want
to play pool anymore, we can

- throw some darts or...
- Okay, you don't want
to give me my phone?

I don't care.
I didn't leak that name.

But I know you,
and I know you might have,

so I can check the call log

or you can start talking.

It was something I could
do for you, for my daughter.

It was you?

Yeah. So...

Hey.

Those were some
rookie mistakes out there.

I don't see you
coming down on my teammates.

They were the ones who were
running their damn mouths.

You're the one
who let them get in your head.

- I made a mistake.
- What about earlier?

You were pulling out
your phone to call Chloe

when the news dropped, yeah?

- But I didn't.
- Because I stopped you.

Look, Bode, you promised me

that you could
fully commit to REMS today.

You're the one who started today
with a damn press conference

all about Tyler and that fire.

And I left that
back at the station.

What are you saying?

I'm saying
that you have to decide,

right here, right now,
are you all in or not?

Because if you're out,
might as well

take your name off
of that leaderboard.

Your choice.

Okay, so, do you want to tell me

what the hell happened here?

Yeah, sorry, Cap.

I had to take it for a joyride.

I could send you
back to prison for this.

Whoa, hold on, now.

He said he was sorry.

Dad, he broke your tractor.

It was an accident.

Seems like a good kid.

Give him a pass.

Tex, can you
give us a minute? Dad.

Listen, you want to tell me
how to till the dirt

and what to plant, that's fine,

'cause you're
the godfather of farming.

But when it comes
to running this camp,

that's my call.

You've been
biting my head off all day

when I only came to help.

What did I do wrong?

You have overruled me
in front of my guys.

You've pointed out
all of my shortcomings.

- I never did that.
- Dad, with the tractor.

It was a gift.

That only
highlighted my failure.

Now, you said
you wanted to help.

But right now, I'm calling it.

When did you even call the news?

What? I-I-I--

I really don't
see the problem. He confessed.

I-I... Now people know his name.

You don't see the problem?

You didn't just see
that poor mother right now?

That-that poor mother?

Now you feel bad for Chloe.

You... you just kicked her
out of your house this morning.

Because they wronged our family,

and now you have wronged theirs

and muddied the whole thing.

To protect my child.

By serving hers
up to the wolves.

That's not how you handle this.

Okay, fine. I did it wrong.
So tell me how to fix it.

No, that's not fair.

You want to protect your child?
Don't go behind her back

and then ask her
to fix your mess.

I get, I get that you're angry,

but I am not your punching bag.

I sat with you
at a table right there,

and you promised
not to break me.

That's right.

My life has been
upended by tragedy,

but I'm the problem,
and you're the victim.

I don't know why I'm surprised

because you installed
all the triggers,

but you broke me.

Sharon, can we please just...

Go!

Go.

You, uh, need a hand?

You offering?

Well, I can't leave you
without your number two.

You know, I always
thought this chicken coop

would fall down
due to poor construction,

not a tractor crash.

Well, it was a stupid mistake.

That's all.

You think we can build it back?

I think we can get her there.

Do you have some nails?

On it, Cap.

Uh, this is Crawford.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm on my way.

Uh, that-that was the hospital.

I gotta go.

Well, hold up. I'll drive you.

I know that you cared about
Tyler. You and I both know

you have the best shot
to get through to him.

Look, Bode, you promised me
that you could

fully commit to REMS today.
Are you all in or not?

- Because if you're out...
- Davis?

...you might as well take your
name off of that leaderboard.

Davis?

Davis? Eleanor Davis,
you on scene?

Anyone got eyes on Davis?

Firefighter Leone.

I'm on Davis's trail,
joining the search.

Eleanor!

- Eleanor! Hey!
- I'm in here!

I'm here, I got you.

I lost control
of the UTV, and--

- How you doing?
- Neck and back are good,

but my arm, can't look at it.

Don't, I'll be your eyes.

All right, I gotta...
I gotta get your arm freed.

It's gonna hurt a little.

We'll get it freed.
Ready, set...

All right, come here.

Let's get you out.

Come on, grab my arm.
Take my arm.

There, ready? Slow, slow, slow,
slow, slow. Watch your head.

All right, let's get you
to the medics back at base camp.

Uh-uh. No.
I have to finish the course.

If I fail,
I could live with that. Fine.

But I can't quit.

Your shoulder needs to be reset.

The longer that's dislocated,
the worse it's gonna get.

Well, that's where you come in.

No way.

If you were this close to the
finish line, what would you do?

- I'd keep going.
- Then I trust you.

Then give me that arm.

I'm gonna count to three, okay?

One, two...

Okay.

Congratulations, Davis,
you finished under time.

And nice work, Bode.

Glad you stuck around.

Sorry you didn't
complete the course.

Can't leave
a firefighter behind.

No, you can't.

Looks like you did it.

You proved me wrong.

And you made it to the finish.

Go get you checked out.

Blaming you was... irrational.

It was my responsibility.

Okay, I'm trying to apologize.

And explain.

Look, I know I've been harsh,

but that's because I am...

genuinely afraid.

Manny, it took me this long
to get close to my brother.

Now, with Malcolm,

I just keep thinking about
the worst possibilities.

I mean, what if,
what if it's bad news?

- What if he doesn't...
- Hey.

I get it.

I need you to know, man, that

I-I carry around

what happened to your brother
with me every day.

And I see it.

And I wanted your job,

but I do not envy it.

Mr. Crawford?

After the initial

craniotomy, your brother
suffered a second brain bleed...

- No.
- ...which increased

- the intracranial pressure.
- No.

But the swelling has stabilized.

- And that's good, right?
- Very good.

He's awake now.

- Can I, can I see him?
- Mm-hmm.

Go. Go.

What's gonna happen to him?

Well, first I'm gonna
make him clean up this mess.

And then,
what happens next is up to me.

Then, if it's
all the same to you...

...he didn't
crash that tractor. I did.

I didn't see the damn coop.

Dad, I have asked you
to not get in to my work.

And now, you're trying
to cover for this guy?

I ain't.

I have watched you
steer a tractor

in pitch-black dark
in a hail storm.

And you're gonna tell me that
you lost control of the tractor?

I didn't see the damn coop, Eve.

Okay, Dad. Okay.

Yeah.

I'm sorry to say
you got your pride

- from me.
- Oh.

It's hard for me to tell you...

...but my eyes are going.

The doc says it's glaucoma.

How long has this been going on?

How-how do we treat it?

No, it's a little late
for treatment now, baby.

Pretty soon, my, uh,

my sight will be
completely gone.

Which is why that call
from Chief Perez was a blessing.

It was one last chance for me
to pass down my knowledge.

Not one last chance.

Eyesight or no eyesight,
I can still learn from you, Dad.

I ain't told your brothers yet.

Gonna do that next week,
talk about the ranch.

- Really like
for you to be there.
- Yeah.

The whole family, if you can.

I-- I mean, of course, Dad.
I just...

You know, you didn't just
get your pride from me.

You got, uh,

you got
your farming skills, too.

Oh, shut up.

You saw how bad
those carrots were.

You know how many rotten crops
I grew before a decent harvest?

A lot.

I was just happy to hear
that you were trying.

I assumed
you weren't interested.

I just wanted
to prove to you I could do it.

That I'm an Edwards.

Yeah.

I know I ain't said it much.

But while I can...

...I wanna see you...

...when I tell you

I am proud of you.

I am so...

proud of you.

Yes, sir.

But Malcolm's brain
has stopped swelling.

We don't know if he's

gonna be able...

Yo!

Need some help over here!

I can't... I can't breathe.

Okay, hang on.

- I can't breathe.
- Okay, right here.

Right here. Look at me.

All right.
You're gonna breathe with me.

Okay? Here we go.
Here we go. In.

Hold it.

Out.

Good, that's good.

I'm right here with you.

Okay.

Hey. You want to tell me
what's wrong?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Looks like REMS left a mark.

Nah, this is... not too bad.

How's Eleanor?

Well, medically, we'll be sling
buddies for a couple of weeks,

but she'll be good as new
before REMS starts up, so...

She made it?

It is hard
to turn down grit like that.

When REMS is doing
another tryout, I want in.

I know that
I wasn't at my best today,

but I-I can do better.

So you do want another shot?

Okay.

So, give me a straight answer,
the real answer.

Why do you want
to be on the REMS team?

When I answered you earlier...

You lied. Textbook answer.

I didn't lie.

Deep down, I want
to make REMS for the same reason

that I wanted
to get to Three Rock

and-and join Cal Fire after.

You feel called to do it?

So, let me ask you this.

When you heard that radio call

that Eleanor
had gone off the road,

what was your first thought?

I had to go in.

Yeah, so you jumped in to help

a fellow firefighter in danger.

Didn't know where she was,
but you knew that

you had to be
the one to find her.

You've always
been REMS material.

What are you saying?

I am saying

you kept your name on the board.

You helped out
a fellow candidate,

you got her
over the finish line.

If that's not you
at your best, man,

I don't know what is.

And the other evaluators,
they agreed with me.

Welcome to the team,
Bode Coyote.

We're lucky to have you.

And, um...

I kind of lied before
to you as well.

That stuff about me

leaving my baggage
at the station, you know?

You lost your dad, you know?

But I lost my brother.

And claiming that
I'm standing up a REMS team

for any other reason,

it's just not true.

I did it 'cause I thought...

...that I was
the person that had to.

For Vin.

You and I have...

...we have
very similar instincts, kid.

We gotta listen to them.

Congratulations, Bode.
I'm proud of you.

You being the one to light up
Edgewater makes no sense.

You don't have
the killer instinct.

You showed up
just to tell me that?

I showed up to hear
what the hell happened

the night of the fire,
from your mouth.

Start talking.
