like, Ripley stuff for me.

And this dinner party feels like just enough added stress

to make me question basically everything,

so that's where I'm... at.

Okay. Yeah.

Okay. Okay.

I don't own a single thing sold by Gucci.

[ Chuckles ] Right. Not one.

And I have several sturdy gym bags.

That's one.

Two...

no one ever gets over anyone that dies.

We just don't... get over them.

We just...

go on.

Right? Yep.

Three...

Maggie's a good person,

and she is going through way more right now

than our break-up.

Four...

a woman who runs into burning buildings for a living

is infinitely more interesting on every level

than someone who knows what fork to choose.

I like you.

I want my mom to like you.

I want her to know you.

And I'm curious as hell to eat at your parents' restaurant.

[ Chuckles ]

What kind of food do they make?

It's Polish.

I know. It's unexpected.

I'm gonna see you tomorrow night.

[ Inhales sharply ]

Okay? Yeah. Yep.

Good. Okay.

[ Sighs ] Jackson.

What's that?

Nothing.

I just like saying your name.

Okay.

Yeah.

[ Thud ]

You mad at those hoses?

[ Sighs ] It's all just a big joke, isn't it?

What is?

How about our friend who got shot to death

by a 3-year-old who's traumatized for life

because his mom didn't store her gun properly --

a gun she needed for protection against her own ex-husband?

Now she'll probably end up going to jail

and he'll end up going into the foster system.

Or the, uh --

the bride who woke up this morning and thought,

"Maybe today'll be the day that I forgive my father."

But instead, she watched his heart stop.

Oh, and the cherry on top? Her dress got his blood on it.

I mean, what kind of petty God

takes away her father and ruins her dress?

But, uh, don't worry.

We saved the life of the woman who stupidly

risked everyone's lives to save her own merchandise.

Maybe that stupid woman learned something today.

Maybe she got her priorities straight.

Maybe she'll walk through life just 10% less stupid.

Maybe she'll cure cancer.

We don't get to know.

We saved a life today.

The rest sucks, but that part's a good thing.

That's -- That's a win.

Oh, good. An uninvited infringement upon my time.

I lost a patient today.

Sorry to hear that.

The State of Washington has excellent mental health coverage

for first responders.

I lost a patient.

His name was Martin.

His blood is still on my shirt.

He had a daughter. Her name is Shauna.

She's getting married without him now.

He won't be there to walk her down the aisle.

Warren, do you think I'm the Chief of just one station?

Look, he didn't have to die!

I could have saved him if I had the necessary tools.

Tell me what I have to do.

You have to turn around, take a right to the elevator banks,

ride down four floors --

Sir, with all due respect, I am not accepting a no.

How about a "you're fired"?

You would be the only Fire Chief in the country

with a Physician Response Team.

I mean, think of the press.

Think of the public interest stories.

And what is a whole lot of good publicity worth to you?

I mean, look at this face. It's pretty.

Look at these hands.

They are magic.

But if you say no, if you -- if you fire me,

then I'll just move to Portland, take this gold mine to them.

Give me half. Give me half the money.

And I will get Grey Sloan Memorial

to create a fellowship to cover the other half.

Thank of it, sir.

Fire and medicine,

working together, innovating,

changing the way we save lives.

I mean, c-can't you just see the headlines?

Yeah.

[ Exhales deeply ]

On your feet, Fluff and Fold. You're on laundry duty.

Hey.

Hey, Hughie. What?

I'm in.

I will go on the worst triple date on Earth.

You will?

In exchange for seven nights of laundry duty.

What? No way. [ Locker door closes ]

Two. Five.

Three. Four, and I'll tell that story

about that time you stopped a snake from eating a baby.

I am pretty awesome in that story.

You are.

Deal.

Wear something fancy.

You're not my mom.

[ Thunder rumbles ]

Gotta say, today feels like

a "Fries and Milkshake after Shift" day.

Fries and beers?

Whiskey and beers?

Can you -- Can you stop?

Stop what?

[ Sighs ]

Trying to pretend like

this perky cheerleader thing you're doing

isn't because I watched Ryan die.

I'm not.

I'm just trying to figure out what you need.

What I need is for just one friend -- one --

to not look at me like you're looking at me right now.

One friend to just sit next to me

and let me talk or not talk or cry or not cry

and not have an opinion about it.

One friend. That's all I need.

Can you be that friend?

Yeah. I can be that friend.

Young Ryan: She's still not crying?

Pruitt: No.

Congratulations on the promotion.

[ Chuckles ] What can I do for you?

You filling that empty office downstairs soon?

Oh. You want your old job back?

Not quite.

Oh, you're -- you're here to lobby for Andy, huh?

Actually, against her.

You don't want her to be Captain?

I do. Someday.

I want her to have your job someday.

I want her to be Fire Chief someday.

And none of that'll happen if you promote her now.

I saw a look on Andy's face at Ryan's funeral

that I haven't seen since her mother passed away.

She went numb, wouldn't talk, wouldn't eat, wouldn't sleep.

She wouldn't even cry.

And the only person that could get her to feel again just died.

And it's gonna get worse, her year.

It's -- It's gonna get a lot worse.

She was nine years old when her mother died.

Andy's a grown woman now.

She deserves Captain. She's earned it.

She has one shot at this, and I'm telling you,

if you give it to her now, she'll blow it.

She'll never forgive me. Probably not.

But you'll be helping her career in the long run,

and if you love her...

...don't give it to her -- not now.

Andy's young and a hell of a firefighter.

She'll get there.

Just please, Robert...

please.

Not now.

I know you will.
