Original subtitles

We're not open yet.

Hey.

So...

Feels like we should talk about the ren fair?

Dragons and fires, a bunch of injuries.

And?

And...

Yeah, I mea... I guess there was, there was, like,

that other thing, at the end, there.

That, kissing thing?

Didn't hate that.

I definitely didn't hate it, either.

But we should talk about it, because...

You know, you and I just got out of

other things with other people.

No, we should,

we should definitely be responsible.

You know, figure out what exactly this is first.

What is this?

Probably need to investigate.

Investigate what?

I was just ordering a chicken-fried steak.

Smokey's does chicken-fried steak now?

Yeah, we're, we're thinking about it.

Okay, we'll pick this up later.

Yeah, sure.

Bye, Audrey.

B, I was, seeing if you wanted to get some ot.

Field trip to Trinity national for risk assessment.

It's gonna be a long drive, and a long hike.

No, I'm in. Let's go.

Listen up, three rock.

Okay, juice boxes are in the kitchen,

arts and crafts are in bay 3

and photos are in here with the engine.

Can't wait to see my five little monsters.

- Anytime, bro. - Okay.

All right, the kids are gonna be here in an hour,

so let's get moving, gentlemen.

On it, cap. Come on, y'all. All right.

Yo, cap, thanks again for kicking off

this reunion express program, it's pretty cool.

Yeah, no, the kids need to see their dads

out of a prison setting.

Yeah, I'm just glad D.C. Leone

actually approved it. Well, with conditions.

Sacramento only signed off on it because fire educated

went so well.

So, if we have any hiccups, we're gonna get the ax.

So, everyone, dads and kids, need to give it a thumbs-up.

Surveys will be at the door. Great.

All that means is we got to make this one

a winner.

Hey, what are you doing here?

I'm dropping off Mac and cheese for the kids

to support Eve's reunion express program.

You left your father at the house alone?

He just got done living by himself, okay?

He can spend an hour or two at the house.

Can he?

Really?

'Cause it's only been a couple of days.

And I know it's inconvenient, but we don't know

if he can be alone for a day or a night, or an hour.

Okay, so, that's what we're doing now?

I mean, bode moves out, Walter moves in,

we become parents again,

except for this time, the baby is just old

and an ass?

I didn't say anything. I-I am not

an apple, my dad's not a tree.

I didn't say it.

Okay, I'm gonna go home.

I was gonna take you to the new steak place

for dinner tonight, but.

I hope you like our couch,

'cause that's where we're gonna be

spending date nights from here on out.

I love our couch. It's my favorite.

Not a threat.

Fine, go ahead.

Just ask. What?

So, bode.

You and Audrey.

We're taking it slow.

Slow? Good.

Sl... real slow, yeah.

U-Until...?

I'm trying to figure that out.

But dude, we both want to get it right. Okay?

What about you? What do you got going on? You gonn...

Well, you gonna get back out there or...?

- Yeah. - I mean, I'm-I'm out here now.

Look... I mean, look at, look at all these

beautiful mountains, the trees and...

Yeah.

This kind of feels like we're skipping school.

You know what this reminds me of?

The time you convinced me to skip in order to go with you

to that Kenny Chesney concert in Oakland?

You remember that?

I remember that. My dad caught us both, dude. Yeah.

I got grounded for, like, a month.

But you know what?

It didn't keep us from sneaking out again.

Nope.

Nope, sure didn't.

Okay.

First one up, Stella Jones. Hello.

How are you? Very good.

D-23 for Stella. All right.

There you go, Stella.

Over there.

She looks just like you.

Come here.

And what is your name, sir?

You all right, bro?

Nervous.

Daddy!

- Hey, everybody. - Okay,

we have team rodman here.

I think your dad has shown me your photo, like, 500 times.

That's my crew.

Gorgeous.

W-17.

I'm not doing plastic bling.

Everyone has to wear one,

but you can take it off at the end of the day.

Not my party.

There he is! Dad!

Aw, there you go.

Dad.

We missed you.

I missed you all so much.

We missed you, too.

Look at my little ladies.

Wait, hold on, hold on.

Did you guys get even prettier?

Yes. Yeah.

And Logan, look at you.

You're almost as tall as me. Get in here.

What, you too cool to hug your pops?

Nice fit.

Hey.

Give him time.

Yeah.

And last but not least,

hi, sweetie. What's your name?

Simon. You're Harper's kid.

Okay, so, I-I have some bad news.

So, your dad is fine, he just got a little sick,

and so he's in the infirmary,

and you were already on the bus when we found out.

So, he's not coming at all?

He's not, but we're still gonna have fun.

We have food, art, games... I want to go home.

Simon, I'm so sorry. So...

It's too far, so we can't send the bus away

until everyone's done at the end of the day.

No, I want my dad.

All right.

Yeah, it's not too much further.

About half a mile out from the dry patch.

All right. Let's tag these trees

so they can be cleared before fire season.

Okay. First contestant.

Looks like we're here. Four miles.

Well, I think this counts as leg day for the week.

Yeah, sure.

Whatever you say.

Okay, buddy.

What do you want? Moisture meter or spray paint?

Right. Stupid question.

Bode Leone, the secret tagger of edge water middle school.

Look, you want a clean brick wall,

you probably shouldn't put it next

to an eighth-grade art room.

Fair point, fair point.

All right, this is 14%.

Sorry, big guy.

We don't want you going up like a candle

and killing all your friends.

Rip, buddy.

This one's got decent fuel moisture.

No sign of bark beetles.

Monitor only.

You got it.

Marking it to monitor.

You smell that?

Smoke.

Someone's campfire.

- You got that? - Yep.

Good.

Wait, you hear that?

Is that a rock slide?

If whoever left this campfire is still out here...

With me.

Whoa!

Help!

- You heard that, right? - Yeah.

Someone's buried under there.

Help!

Please, help!

I'm here, c-can you hear me?

Yes, can you hear us?

Cal fire is here. Yes, I can hear you!

My god!

Okay, hey, hey, hold on, hold on. My god!

Hold on, hold on. Look,

all right, this rock slide is new.

Might still be unstable.

You've been through avalanche training. How do we get him out?

Okay, look, if there is a secondary slide,

and we don't see it coming, well,

then none of us are getting out of here alive.

So, what we need to do is

keep an eagle-eyed view above.

Take turns doing it.

Got it. One looks, the other one works. Yeah.

Help! I'm under these rocks. Help!

Voice sounded like it was coming from somewhere

around here.

Yeah, I'll start digging. All right.

Look, what's your name and, are you... are you hurt?

Rafael.

I'm not, I'm not sure.

Okay, he must be in shock.

All right, Rafael, save your breath.

Okay.

Look, I'm captain Jake Crawford with Cal fire

and I've got firefighter bode Leone here with me.

We're gonna get you out of there.

Listen, the minute we get him free,

one of us has to run for help.

The phones should work closer to the road.

Give me a hand moving this one. All right.

Help me out. Ready?

Okay, two, three.

"A wooden home for a dog."

Dog house.

D-o-g-h-o-u... Hi, dad.

Lunch time. Great, I'm starving.

Here you go.

What?

I don't eat rabbit food.

Neither do I.

I'd rather eat the rabbit.

Look, these are super foods, okay?

There's, avocado and chia seeds and pomegranates.

It's good for brains.

Even crusty old ones. Yeah.

Probably tastes like the front lawn.

Yeah, I'd rather have a burger, too.

Great idea.

Why don't you fire up a few of them?

I'll take two myself.

This, crossword puzzles,

that's what's good for the brain.

Hey, vin, "ancient Greek physician

known as the father of medicine."

I bet you don't know that one.

Hippocrates.

Who?

Rafael, do we sound closer or farther away now?

Farther away.

Can you tell where that's coming from?

No. No, the, the acoustics of the rocks

are throwing the sound of his voice.

It's sound reflection.

All right, look, we got to change this up.

Hey, Rafael, were you at your campsite

when you first saw the, rock slide?

I was close.

Hey, it's getting a little hard to breathe.

I can run back to the truck right now

and grab medical supplies,

try and call as soon as I can.

No, no, there and back is over eight miles.

It'll take way too long.

Our main priority is to find where this guy is first.

Do you remember anything specific

that you saw at your campsite?

I was almost back to my tent.

Right there.

Yeah, there's the tent. Hey. Hey.

Rafael, we're closer now.

Yeah. You're close.

Hey, be very careful. Let's start digging, though.

I got this one.

Hey, buddy.

Everyone's making, picture frames over there.

You want to make one?

Hey, how about I help you make

a special "get well soon" card for your dad?

What... The hell?

Logan, what did you do?

I wanted to see it opened up.

Well, this is a rescue boat.

Logan. Are you kidding me?

- We got a spill. - I'll get a mop.

My son and I will get a mop.

Whatever.

Come on, hurry up.

How does this deflate?

It's just a glitch, chief.

We've got it under control.

You got your whole closet in there?

Basically, yeah.

My crap hole apartment's crappy laundry machine broke.

Again.

Well, the station one is busy with station stuff.

Right. Yeah, no, I,

I can just take my couch quarters

and spend the day with the weirdos at the laundromat.

Or, maybe you could

save your quarters and use the one at my house.

Really?

Vince could honestly use a break.

He's pretty crabby, and so is Walter.

Great, so everybody's crabby.

Lucky me.

There we go. Look.

We have to stabilize the rescue corridor,

make sure the walls around him are stable.

Using nature's cribbing.

Hey, remember, slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

Easy, easy.

Watch your step.

Yep.

Hey, now it counts as leg day.

All right.

Let's see what that got us.

Okay, one more rock.

Hey, Rafael, can you see any light?

Yeah, I can see it!

Heh. You're close to me!

Hey.

Sharon said that I could let myself in,

do some laundry.

She also said you might need a break.

Yeah, you don't need any of that

grumpy old weirdo on your plate, trust me.

It's fine, I've dealt with

plenty of grumpy old weirdos in prison.

Y-You sure?

Yeah, how bad could it be?

Guess you're gonna find out.

Thank you... and, laundry room's

right back there. Okay.

Holler if you need me.

All right. Thank you so much.

Hey!

I thought I heard you.

What you got there? Laundry.

What's the matter, they don't have any

washing machines in that fancy dorm of yours?

Dorm?

I... I live in an apartment.

You moved out already? That's great.

First sign of independence, get your own place.

Come on, give your grandpa a hug.

It's so good to see you, Riley.

What is with all this bleach in your hair?

I like you better when you're a dirty blond.

You're not Riley.

No.

I'm Audrey.

I work with your son and your grandson.

Well, that's all right.

It was just a mistake, you know.

Riley died.

Satellite service unavailable.

No clear line of sight, even up there.

Okay, hey, Rafael,

we're gonna have to get you out ourselves.

How you feeling, Rafael?

Grateful.

I can't believe you found me.

It seems impossible. I went for a walk,

I was almost back to my tent

when I... I heard a Rumble.

Boom, it felt like a mountain hit me.

Passed out, I woke up buried alive.

Now, I'm guessing mild concussion, fractured ribs.

I'm pretty sure no pneumothorax.

You a doctor?

Pediatrician.

I came from Argentina for medical school.

My fiancée, mica, she's still there.

Like this week, I... I lost a patient.

A six-year-old girl.

Devastating, and-and... That's awful.

That's why I came out here on this solo camping trip.

Trying to make sense of it all, you know?

Guys, I think my oxygen sat's down.

My heart rate's getting slower.

We'll work faster.

We're halfway there, Rafael.

Yeah.

There you go. Shake it until you can see you.

Thank you.

Okay.

Look at that. My baby girl's

been smiling all day.

Yeah.

One for you.

Thanks.

All right, bud, picture time.

Ready?

You could wear the fire hat or you could wear

a super cool fire jacket.

I miss my dad. I want to go home.

I could slum it in a truck.

Okay.

I'll be right back, I'm gonna grab some more film.

See?

All he needed was a little time to warm up.

Teenagers, man.

Those hormones?

Get back! Everybody, get back!

Get back! Okay, okay, let's go, let's go.

Where'd you get these? They were sitting out.

On hooks, above the shelves and the gear?

Thought y'all wanted us to be all, "we're firefighters."

It's not a joke, Logan.

Hey.

Yelling at him's not gonna help.

Yeah, but it's gonna make me feel better.

Okay, looks like we need to have

a little chat. Let's go.

All right.

So, someone could've really gotten hurt.

Is that what you wanted?

No. Then what?

Attention?

Because I got a kid in there

that's heartbroken he came all the way up here,

but his dad is sick.

Let him hang with my dad, then.

No, but your dad really loves you,

and he wants to spend time with you.

My dad doesn't even know me.

Look, it's hard. I get it.

While you both are here, you have an opportunity

to get to know one another.

Tell him about yourself, let him in.

How?

Other kids don't have to talk to their dads here.

This one guy at school, Damon?

His dad has a job. He comes home at night,

eats dinner. It's normal.

To Damon, I'm probably like

this juvenile delinquent with a dad in prison.

Okay, if Damon is your friend,

he's not gonna care where your daddy is.

He's... He's not my friend.

What, is he, is Damon bullying you? No.

No, Damon's nice.

He plays hockey, he's smart, he's funny.

He dresses well.

He always knows what to say, and...

Everyone likes him.

You like him.

You know, the thing that you have to tell your dad,

a long time ago,

I had to tell my dad the same thing.

How'd he take it?

You know, me and my dad, we got a lot of problems,

but... That wasn't one of them.

And I don't think your dad will have a problem with it, either.

Will you help me tell him?

Yeah.

Rafael, how you feeling?

I thought I was good, but...

Now I think I'm bleeding internally.

And if that's true...

My organs are gonna start going soon.

But, hey, just keep me talking.

It'll help.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

What kind of music do you like?

These might be my last minutes on earth.

Does it really matter that I'm into emo-pop?

Come on, guys.

Get real with me.

Do you believe in the afterlife?

Yeah, yeah, I do.

Between my dad and fiancée,

I know I'm gonna see them again.

Sometimes it's the only thing that keeps me going.

Yeah, I'm with you.

My parents went first and I got to believe

they're at a big celestial party, just

they're waiting for me to come through that door.

Yeah, my... My sister, Riley.

I was with her when she died.

But...

It's been hard for me to find anything to believe in.

Bode!

I can see you.

Nice to meet you, Rafael.

Jake.

God!

I thought I'd never see the sun again.

Hey.

It's unstable.

Rocks are still moving up there.

Secondary slide's coming.

Rafael, hang in there.

B, turtle formation, now.

Cover your head, Rafael!

Brace for impact!

I think we're good.

Hey. Rafael. You good?

I'm here.

Hey. Yo, b, your leg okay?

Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine. It's just bruising.

Come on.

All right, come on, let's get him out.

You are perfect, kid.

Love whoever you were made to love.

My only regret is the same one as always:

Instead of being home to listen and help.

I'm here.

Is there anything else you want to say?

Come on, you can... you can tell me anything.

There's this guy, Damon... Wait, hold on.

Does my boy have a crush?

Dad, stop.

No, no, no. Y-You got to tell me all about him.

He plays hockey.

I don't know anything about hockey.

I mean, I googled it.

But still, what do I say to him and not sound like an idiot?

I'm gonna put you up on some game, okay?

So...

Don't pretend to know anything.

- Ask him about it. - You got this.

Show him that you're interested in his interests.

So, your mom loved these twilight movies.

Do you think I care anything about some sexy vampires?

Although, to be honest,

we ended up reading the books, too,

but that's beside the point. And i-I'm team Jacob.

We're gonna get into all of that.

All right, the secondary slide set us back,

but we're close to getting you out.

Wait, wait.

- Another slide? - Please, no.

Okay, no, we're good.

Guys?

I need you to tell mica something.

We met so young, and

I always thought it was too young, but now...

Now I know why.

Y-You can tell her yourself.

Please.

Her life can't stop because mine did.

Tell her...

Tell her to find her next great love.

Tell her I said so.

Promise.

Yeah. Yeah, I promise.

We don't have to. Look, you're free.

Good work.

All right, let's get him out of here.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Course you didn't.

I always want to remember Riley, I...

She can't just... disappear somewhere into my brain.

Riley played baseball?

She was a good shortstop.

I taught her everything, I...

Taught her how to field balls, how to tag the runners, and...

What about you? You play any sports?

No.

I do sing, though.

For as long as I can remember.

It's, like, the only thing I can rely on.

Look at bode fishing. Yeah. Yep.

He's so cute. Yeah.

Steelhead. Look at the size of that.

Wow. He caught that the first time he went fishing.

That's me. I taught the kids how to play poker.

That is, until Sharon caught on. She didn't like that very much.

Aww.

Vince and Sharon. Dancing.

They're good dancers, those two, yeah. Yeah. They are.

I've seen it.

And Riley's sweet 16.

Yeah.

Then, couple years later,

Riley was gone, and bode was gone, too, we...

Just didn't take any photographs after that.

Yep, just like that. Easy.

Good job, Rafael. Good job.

All right, this rock should help keep you safe

from any more slides.

Bode, your knee tells me you stay, I'll run.

Yeah.

Thank you, bode.

Yeah.

Hey.

You know, it's okay that...

You don't want to do crafts.

Or take any pictures.

I hate taking my picture, too.

But instead of pretending that all this doesn't suck

you want to do something about how much it does?

Yes.

Everything you're mad at, hit it, hit it.

Yeah, just like that. Hit it.

There you go.

I'm next.

Hey, this bag's in trouble because she's got a right hook.

Only 'cause you taught me.

You know, my dad and I used to be separated for a while, too.

Did it suck?

So bad.

But we get to work together now.

Like, a lot.

You know, we get to work with your dad a lot, too.

And he's a dang good firefighter.

Want to show him what you're made of?

Yeah? Got your phone?

Yeah. All right, let's do it.

Okay, we'll make sure we get this to your dad.

Ready?

Go.

Whoo! Attaboy.

There you go.

Chief, I'm sorry for everything.

What happened?

The firetruck, the kids crying,

the rescue boat, I just... That's just people.

And family.

Family is messy.

But this, this today was a success.

I mean, I wouldn't go that far.

Really?

Every kid getting on that bus,

and every dad getting on that buggy,

what do they all have in common right now?

That they all got problems?

No, they're all happy.

They all had a great day.

And you gave them that.

You did really good, my friend.

Come on. I need a signal.

It's cold.

Jake's getting help.

All right? They'll be here any minute.

Hey...

It's almost over.

No, no. Not if you don't give up.

There's a difference... Between giving up

and letting go.

Come on.

Damn it.

Let's keep talking. Keep talking to me.

Help's on the way.

You said talking would help, right?

Get my body to a donor center.

Fast.

So they can use my organs.

You said that you believe in the afterlife, right?

Then believe in a miracle.

Come on, come on, come on.

Yes, yes.

911.

What's your emergency?

This is captain Crawford from Cal fire.

I need immediate medical assistance

at Trinity national park. Now!

I'll see that.

Okay.

Hey! Okay.

You ready for this?

So ready. All set?

Two pair. Blam!

You forgot about the wild card.

Blam-blam. Three of a kind.

Right, so you-you play circus poker. Audrey...

They've been "blamming" now for a couple hours.

Turns out Audrey's the Walter whisperer.

I like this one!

Well, what's not to like, right?

Hey, if you guys wanted to go to that restaurant

that you were talking about, I could stay.

'Cause I'm about to kick this one's ass. Ooh!

Says you.

I have an even better idea. Come here.

Not playing for these cookies.

We're playing for money. How much you holding?

Well, not... I'm pretty light, I will say that right now,

but we'll see. Yeah. Yeah. Here we go.

Watch your step.

Keep an eye out for flares.

This way. Come on, guys.

Hey. Hey. Help will be here any minute.

It's too late.

Bode...

Look up there.

Look.

Yeah.

That's the miracle.

Living's the miracle.

Dying is just the next question.

And I want to live my life,

my last moments, in this miracle

before I get the answer.

Almost there.

Please...

Look up there with me.

Yeah?

If that's what you want.

Yeah.

Bode! Almost there.

There, there! There it is!

Bode! Rafael! We're here!

We've got medical supplies and...

You ready?

Yeah. Go ahead.

Hello?

Hola, mica.

Soy bomb era Gabriela Perez de edge water, California.

Estoy aquí con mi compañero Jake Crawford

que estuvo con su esposo Rafael hoy.

I

I am so sorry for your loss.

Rafael asked me to tell you something.

Lo siento también, mica. Lamento su pérdida.

Te estamos llamando por si tienes

alguna pregunta sobre El incidente.

You think he's okay?

Probably not.

But he will be.

Okay.

Looks like our new normal is gonna be

just trying to take it day by day?

Wow.

Did you just try to go with the flow right there?

Nah, I'm doing my best, you know.

Not, not my strong suit, as you know.

Yeah, me neither.

But it's all right. You know what?

We're just gonna meet Walter where he is, every day.

And then, I'm gonna meet you right here.

Always.

That was good!

Thank you, Walter. You're welcome.

Want some?

I'm good, thank you. Yeah.

But you want my grandson, don't you?

I pay attention.

I know what's going on.

Well, to be honest with you,

I am kind of falling in love... With edge water.

And station 42.

And your family. And bode.

It's too soon to tell.

But...

You know, if we try things and they go south,

then he's fine.

He gets to stay here.

I'm the one that just... Goes away.

Well, you're here now.

I'll be right back.

Hey.

Hey. You okay?

Long day.

I'll tell you about it later.

I heard a little about her from your non no today.

Come here.

I think our son had a hard day today.

Yeah.

Think we need to talk to him?

No.

I think we should wait for him

to come talk to us.

Come on over here.

Family photo time.

Ooh... Your favorite. Thank you.

Yeah. Get in there.

Okay.

Love it.

All right. Everyone smile.
