(SIRENS BLARING)

DISPATCH: House fire, 788 Maple Street. Engine 51, Truck 81, Ambulance 61.

Hey, guys. How do I look? As usual. Like the class clown.

(LAUGHING)

Yo, Severide. How soon until you can take Darden off my hands?

Andy makes Squad the day after I'm no longer in charge.

The attic, My brother lives up there... He hasn't come down...

That window there? Yes... I haven't seen him... Oh, God...

We think there's a guy in the attic.

I'll raise the aerial. He could be on the stairs, in the hallway, anywhere.

We'll go in the back, work our way up.

Case of beer we get to him first... Just vent the back.

Was Severide always such a cocky prick? Only since kindergarten.

This is Chief Boden.

I want an inch and three-quarter in the front, and two two-and-a-half's

in the neighbor's houses. Vent in the rear and ground ladders to the roof.

I'll get it. Let's go!

Hey! Check over there!

Severide, do we have a vent? Darden, wait!

(GLASS BREAKING) We're good!

Casey, there is no vent! Darden, back out!

(AIR VENTING)

Get down! (GRUNTS)

Darden! (SHOUTS)

(FIRE ROARING)

What the hell are you doing, Casey?

I can't stand looking at this another day. Heather might want it.

Yeah. I'll call her.

Boden's looking for you.

Casey. Want to step into my office?

Rumor's floating around you're gonna box in the Drop-A-Cop...

Fight that guy who slept with your first wife...

It was my second wife, and she's his problem now, not mine.

So, no, I'm not boxing.

Mayor Emanuel's coming by on Saturday to mark the month since Darden...

This animosity... it's got to stop.

You're both supposed to be leaders here. Lead by example. We've all been through it.

Andy was a friend to all of us. Yeah, he was.

Is there something you want to say?

BODEN: See, this? This right here.

This is exactly what I'm talking about.

You're right, Chief. I'm sorry. It's all good.

We're fine, Chief.

Then that's enough for now.

Hey. I'm...

I'm... My name is Peter Mills. I'm the new candidate on 81.

Oh, fantastic! Joe Cruz. We've been waitin' for you! Really? Great.

So, Peter Mills, is it? Pete, actually. I...

Okay. Peter Mills. Right this way. So, gym's through there...

Uh, there's a TV in the kitchen, but the satellite's busted.

Uh, equipment room, Rescue Squad A-holes,

they think they own that table. Kitchen, tower.

(SAW STARTING)

Hey, Mills, keep moving! Yeah.

Hey, Otis, this is Peter Mills. Yeah. I'm giving a tour.

Peter Mills is our new candidate.

Peter Mills... she's all yours.

Um... who wants to try on a helmet?

(SIREN BLARING)

DISPATCH: Firehouse 51, Ambulance 61. Multiple gunshot injuries.

934 Rosedale Road.

What's up? Two GSWs, one's an organ donor, another hit in the gut.

The shooter? Gone, but this happened less than ten minutes ago.

We're sweeping.

(LOUD MUSIC PLAYING)

MAN: Oh, God. Oh, God.

What's your name? Ricky.

You buying or selling, Ricky? Bitch, just fix me up.

Maybe we should let him bleed a while.

I put one in that GD. Hit him right in the head.

Yeah? I don't think so, Ricky. He's gone. Naw, man, I hit him.

Hey, we think the shooter's upstairs. Okay, we're good here.

Ricky, have you been using? Hmm?

We need to know so we don't give you something that can make you go into shock, okay?

Whoa whoa, whoa... Rise up, fool!

I told you I shot him!

Sit down. I need to look at your head.

(GUN COCKING)

It's all right, okay? We're just gonna take a look.

Just take a seat. We just wanna take a look, okay?

Your head's in bad shape. But I'm only gonna help you if you drop that piece on the floor.

You need to drop the gun or we're leaving. Come on...

Not until you drop that gun.

Drop the gun now! (POLICE YELLING)

Gabriela, what can I say? Say you'll check the closet next time.

Throw in for cooking club! Hey, short arms, long pockets.

Yeah, you. How'd Herrmann get the chef job?

No gag reflex. Otis, what happened to your tour?

Our new candidate.

So this is called a pass alarm.

Now, if a firefighter is totally still for more than 18 seconds,

a loud alarm goes off until he moves again. Why?

Well, if he's hurt or trapped, we'll know where to find him. (ALARM SOUNDING)

That's loud, isn't it? This house is special because it has a Rescue Squad.

Squad 3 serves a big piece of the city.

They're experts at water rescue, extraction, pretty much everything.

They're like, the best of the best.

Why aren't you with them? Well, I mean, I plan to be.

My father was a member of the Squad years ago. Mills, right?

Last to show, first to go. That's the Rescue Squad.

You truck guys do such a good job getting everything ready for us,

why would we want to take that away from you?

Kids, you should know they make the rescue helmets extra big to fit their heads inside.

There are two types of firefighters. Those who are on squad and those who wish

they were on squad. Ooh...

Come on, kids...

Bet I get an application from him by the end of the month.

If he wants you, you can have him.

(ALARM BUZZING)

DISPATCH: Pin-in accident, Columbus Drive Bridge,

Ambulance 61, Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3, Battalion Chief...

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go!

(SIREN BLARING)

Mills, shadow Mouch. Walk with a purpose, but don't run.

Take it all in, know the details of the situation before you act.

Oh, and Mills, don't be a crow.

(DOOR JAMMING) Ma'am, can you hear me?

My daughter... Madeline?

Hey Cruz! Grab the saw!

My little girl. I see her. She's okay.

Get the jaws!

This is Chief Boden, I'm gonna need two more ambulances and a helicopter.

MOTHER: You're fine, honey...

Mother, daughter, trapped, both responsive... Can you hear me?

Madeline. Madeline? Are you hurt, honey?

Okay, can you tell me where you hurt?

MADELINE: My body

Okay. You mean your tummy or your chest? My chest...

Madeline, Mommy loves you. Everything's gonna be okay.

Madeline, look at Mommy. Oh, geez. He's in the water.

He's in the water! Who?

The driver! He was ejected! Get someone on crowd control!

We think we got one in the river. Go! We're on it!

Now, listen, Madeline, I want you to see if you can turn your head toward me.

Can you do that?

Madeline... Madeline... There you go. Open your legs, you're okay.

All right, Husting and me are going. Capp and Hadley on RIT and run the line.

It's dumping gas!

That's the driver! Stop that guy!

Go!

I got him! I got him!

I've got the driver. He's in custody.

Cancel the dive. No one is in the water.

It's okay. (METAL SCRAPING)

MADELINE: I'm scared. Let's get her out of here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Look at her jugular. All right, sweetie.

Muffled heart sounds. It's Beck's triad. Come on, sweetie.

Come on.

(SIREN BLARING)

Time! Less than two minutes.

I got PEA! She's bleeding into the bag around her heart. I need to evacuate the blood.

A minute-and-a-half! She doesn't have a minute-and-a-half, Shay!

She's gonna be dead before we get there.

You gotta wait, Dawson! Pull over the damn rig now!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Come on, come on, come on...

(HEART BEAT STOPPING) Damn it, I hit the heart.

Back it out, slowly. Slowly.

Pressure's coming up. Go!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Mediastinal hemorrhage. I attempted pericardiocentisis and saw PVCs.

You hit her heart with a needle?

I backed it out and evacuated as much blood as I could.

Well, let's hope you didn't kill her in the process. Get her into three.

Call Dr. Nesbitt upstairs and tell him to prep for surgery. Gabby.

Don't worry about him. He's an ass. And his wife's finally leaving him,

so there's that. Thanks.

Say, Lieutenant, now that we have a new Candidate, I don't have to be Otis anymore.

You're still Otis.

Maybe I could learn to drive the truck and we could put Peter Mills on the elevators.

Herrmann, what's this guy's name? Otis.

No, his real name. Bart?

Brian. Brian Zvonecek.

He knew. You're staying on elevators, which makes you Otis. Sorry.

Hey! A guy in the water?

How about a guy with his head up his ass?

You handle your firefighters, I'll handle mine. That's a good theory, Casey.

How about giving it a try? You know what?

I'm getting real tired of your bull, Severide.

I don't give a damn what you're tired of. Hey!

(LOUD PUNCHING) I thought you all should know

I am going to fight that dick Olmstead who slept with my wife,

in Saturday's Drop-a-Cop.

Or we could all just throw the gloves on right now.

Beat the hell out of each other.

Maybe when the Mayor comes on Saturday, that's what he sees.

Truck versus Squad. Old as the CFD, so deal with it.

We all lost Darden. Month ago Friday.

And that ain't changing. So maybe we should.

Hey, Heather. Hey.

Hey, guys. KIDS: Hi.

Thanks for meeting me out here. I just can't go in there.

How are you?

I don't know. What do you want me to say?

So that's it, huh?

(SIGHING) 14 years at this station and it all fits into a box.

Heather, there's not a single place I look and don't see him.

The bells go off and I think, "truck can't leave yet. Andy's not on it.'

Why don't you and Hallie and I get together? I could use a margarita... or four.

Of course. I'll have Hallie call you.

(TRUNK SLAMMING)

Kelly. Yeah.

Here.

Thanks. Okay.

You okay, Dawson?

Uh, of course. Yeah, yeah. It's, uh...

Some days, you know?

Forget it. It's all good. You?

Listen, some of us are going over to Buzzard's tomorrow night

if you and Hallie want to come...

We would, but we do a date night thing. Just us.

But, maybe we'll try.

Yeah, sure. Yeah, that sounds nice.

Mr. Herrmann?

I'm David Talbott, an attorney with the sheriff's department.

Yeah. No problem. We're all out.

There's a dryer down in the basement I couldn't get out by myself, but otherwise,

you know... We'll take care of it.

Oh, no... we'll change the locks.

Yeah, right.

(KNOCKING)

Hey! Pizza, again?

You can't live like that. Come on in.

I've only got a few minutes before my shift.

I... I can't wear this if I'm not still engaged to you.

Am I?

You tell anyone I moved out? No.

You?

No.

So what are we doing?

I'd marry you tomorrow, Hallie, if I knew we wanted the same things.

I'm a resident, Matt. I cannot start a family right now. Yeah.

That's been made perfectly clear.

So what are we doing?

I don't know.

Call me when you do.

(DOOR CLOSING)

Yo, Peter Mills.

My partner, Shay, she's been asking about you.

She's been talking about you all morning. I heard she's a monster.

Dude I know over at 19 walked with a hitch for a week.

You guys are busting my balls.

Listen to me, kid.

I just lost my house to foreclosure because it took a bath in the market.

We're now living at my in-laws', which is two bedrooms shy of unpleasant.

My wife won't take her birth control because the Pope said if she did, God would cry,

so I'm not having any sex.

So, if there is any chance that I could live vicariously through you...

it's literally all I got.

All right.

Hey.

I'm Peter Mills. (LAUGHING) Uh, Pete.

Uh-huh. Peter Mills, can you hand me that box right there?

Uh, yeah.

Thanks. Yeah.

So, the little girl from the bridge accident? Is she okay?

You really are new, aren't you? Listen.

(SIGHING) We get 'em to the doc the best we can, and then we move on.

It's the only way to make it here. Oh, yeah, yeah.

So, uh, I was thinking... I mean, I was wondering.

Do you maybe wanna hook up for a beer or dinner or something?

Peter Mills, are you gay? Me? No.

Because I am.

(GIGGLING)

(ALL LAUGHING)

Dawson! Shay!

Which one of you put a needle in the girl's heart?

Give me a minute.

Tell me what happened.

Her heart was stopping and we pulled over, and I did what I had to do.

It was the right thing to do. The Chief Surgeon at Lakeshore disagrees.

Do you know who your union rep is? What?

Get him involved, right now. Just as a precaution.

Maybe this goes away, but just in case it doesn't... Chief...

You two stick together.

How long were you the Candidate here? Not long. Four years.

I can't believe we're gonna miss the fights tonight.

Well, it's just as well, 'cause I just found out he fought Golden Gloves.

Ah, that was 20 years ago, Chief! We gotta tape it or something. We gotta see it.

What's the Lieutenant doing? He said he wanted to cook the Saturday corned beef.

HERRMANN: Ah, look at that.

He made the best chicken parmigiana I ever put in my mouth.

What do ya got there, Casey? Don't you worry about it.

Call everyone to chow.

Hey, Casey's in there cooking. Casey?

(CHATTING)

Have at it.

What the hell's going on? You okay?

Because if you're not, maybe you need to take... You think I need your help?

I'm trying here, Severide. Keep on.

I cleaned out Darden's locker.

You should have vented the back.

We're called the Rescue Squad, Casey. We don't vent.

You shouldn't have put Andy through the window.

I don't have to explain myself to you. I sleep like a baby.

You?

Say, Herrmann? You think maybe you just bought a little too much house?

I was preyed upon by low-interest loan vultures. What time is the Mayor coming?

I heard nine.

I heard he stops to take a piss at every house in the city.

As a sign of respect. Stopped here in June.

HERRMANN: Hey, Boden's about to fight in ten minutes.

Screw it. Let's take a ride. (ALL AGREEING) Let's take a ride.

Let's go. Yeah.

(BELL DINGING)

ANNOUNCER: Fighting out of the red corner, representing the Chicago Fire Department,

(CROWD CHEERING) ANNOUNCER: Chief Boden!

Hello, sports fans, this is Brian Zvonecek,

coming to you live from the annual Battle of the Badges.

Firefighters versus the Police. What's that?

I hope you all are ready for this. That's Otis.

Boden looks like a heat-seeking missile as he climbs into the ring

to take on Captain Olmstead, from the CPD.

Olmstead, of course, looks like the quivering cop slob that he is.

Chief Boden first won back in 1992 when he was on the esteemed Truck 81.

The greatest truck in all of Chicago. Mouch...

I can't keep making excuses for you.

There goes the bell and here we go...

Boden takes two quick jabs to the nose. He falls back into the ropes.

One, two, three to the chin. Boden's in trouble already, folks.

Wait, here he comes!

Three straight lefts to stand Olmstead up... (ALARM BUZZING)

DISPATCH: Accident, building fire. 241 Franklin Street.

Ambulance 61, Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3. That's just down the block.

81 responding. We're rollin'. Copy that, 81.

(SIREN BLARING)

This is 51 responding.

Ambulance 61 en route with speed.

81 responding with speed to this call.

103 responding to Franklin Street building fire.

(EXPLODING)

Wow, this is bad, bad, bad.

(INDISTINCT TALKING)

Otis, get to the elevator and tell us what we're looking at.

Mills, help Cruz vent the roof.

Herrmann... you and me to the top floor and work our way down.

Let's move.

MAN: Over here! Keep moving.

(PEOPLE COUGHING)

People coming out. Let's go, Herrmann.

The second floor is completely yours.

(WOOD BREAKING) Fire department! Anyone here?

Hey, slow breaths, okay?

Elevator One is clear! Something's keeping it open.

We've got an open door on five! Let's clear it!

Otis and Vargas heading up to five. Elevator obstruction.

Give me a diagonal stripe right here!

(SAW STARTING)

(WOOD BREAKING) Fire department! Anyone here?

Call out! CHILDREN: Help!

Help us!

(CHILDREN COUGHING)

We're under here!

It's gonna be all right. We'll get you out. Come on.

Watch your head, sweetie. Come on. I got ya.

(ELEVATOR DINGING)

Woman down!

Can you walk? All right. Go to this guy. Go to Mouch.

Truck 81, we hear two more alarms. We're going back in.

DISPATCH: Roger, 81. Let's go.

(SAW BUZZING)

Use your ax! (MILLS GRUNTING)

I'll take her. (GRUNTING)

(WOOD CRUNCHING)

It's ready to vent! Back up!

Roof is open.

It's too red! We've got to go down!

Everybody out! Out! Let 'em get hoses on it!

(SIREN BLARING)

Rescue Squad is two minutes out. Ambo, too. What do you have?

Cruz and Mills are heading down from the roof.

Otis, Vargas, Casey, and Herrmann are clear on floor four and headed down.

No, no, no. They've gotta go up. The smoke's gone black.

Casey, up.

BODEN: Go up to the roof. Casey, do you copy?

Up! Up! Now! Move! Go! Go! Go!

(WOOD BREAKING)

Casey! Herrmann!

(SIRENS BLARING)

BODEN: Rescue Squad on scene.

We have at least two not moving in the basement. Casey and Herrmann.

We'll get 'em. Squad 3 moving in.

Hold engines for a minute.

Up here! Up here!

Go up!

This is Severide! I need a ladder over the west side window, fifth floor.

I see Casey and Herrmann.

Give me a rope! Throw it down!

Come on, let's go! Let's go!

Okay. Down! Down! Lower.

Okay, I'm down. I'm fine!

Come on, get up! You don't wanna miss the Mayor's visit.

You're cooking down here. Hey! You all right?

Herrmann... Herrmann!

Turn him!

Hey! His air!

(HERRMANN GASPING)

Take a breath, Herrmann. Breathe, Herrmann.

Hey, get me another line down here!

(HELICOPTER FLYING)

Otis? Need a lift?

This is the last resident. Building's clear! Got her.

Thanks, buddy!

Get him up.

Watch that!

Get him up! Let's go!

Hey!

I got you, Lieutenant.

(STRUGGLING)

(COUGHING)

(MUMBLING) I'm okay.

I'm okay. You're okay.

I'm okay. You're gonna be all right.

(LABORED BREATHING)

That's right, Herrmann, you're fine, okay? Tension pneumothorax...

(LABORED BREATHING CONTINUES)

Don't think, just do it.

All right, stay with me, Christopher.

Stay with me. He's probably got other internal damage. Help me get him inside.

(MEN COUGHING)

Clear! Squad 3, Truck 81 are clear!

BODEN ON RADIO: Roger. Open up the hoses.

How's Herrmann? On his way to Lakeshore.

Nice work, Candidate. Thanks.

Now start packing up our gear.

Looks like we're gonna meet the mayor after all.

Do you think there's gonna be a hearing? Okay.

Thank you.

Union?

Yeah, yeah. Uh, they're starting a file on me.

I'm going to the hospital to check in on Herrmann if you want to come.

What do you know?

I know we can't lose another one.

Furlough request.

Hell of a first day, Mills.

You handled yourself.

The rest of the truck will remember that.

Thank you, Chief.

Uh, Chief, one other thing.

I was talking to the Rescue Squad, and Lieutenant Casey told me not to be a "crow."

You know what that means?

Oh, did he?

A crow wanted to be a peacock,

so he put on colored feathers and went over to the peacock yard, but the peacocks,

they plucked them all away. So the crow,

he tried to get back with the crows,

but they wanted nothing to do with him.

My mom used to tell me to keep my mouth shut and just watch.

I'm glad I have you here to watch, Chief.

Any update? He's in surgery, trying to find the bleed.

They don't know.

I got her into four. She's 190 over 80 so let's keep a watch on her.

Hey, Doc. Yes?

Um, Dawson, what was the name of that little girl from the bridge?

Casey, don't.

Madeline. That was her name.

A little girl named Madeline, pin-in from the Columbus Drive Bridge. Where is she?

Madeline Pokress. Vitals are stable, release by the end of the week.

CASEY: Thanks. DOCTOR: Yeah.

Anything change? He's still in surgery.

I called his family. They're on their way in from Wheaton.

Come get me if there's an update?

(CELLPHONE RINGING)

What are you doing?

Just... wanted to hear your voice.

How was your shift?

It was fine. Typical. What is it, Matt?

(SIGHING)

Do you think, maybe you could find a reason to come over tonight?

(SIGHING)
