ANNOUNCER: Previously on "Saf3"--

Your body's been through a major trauma.

You're not gonna recognize the face

that you see in the mirror.

You can't pretend you're ready when you're not, Alfonso.

That puts you and everyone else around you in jeopardy.

I'm going away for a while.

Getting a little too dependent on my pain meds.

I found a phone.

I'm gonna call for help.

You're not calling anyone.

In there.

Keep moving.

Let us out of here!

Shut up.

I told you this time you're not leaving.

You're never leaving me again.

You're never leaving me again.

We all know what this program meant to Hal.

Before he died, he was working very

hard on getting a new space.

I hope you like your new home at the edge of Paradise Cove.

[splashing]

What's going on?

[gasping]

[waves crashing]

[moaning]

Hey!

That boat came out of nowhere.

[inaudible] he conscious, but he may have neck injury.

Help me get him on the board. - OK.

Get him up.

Watch out.

Coming through.

Coming through.

Hey, you're gonna be OK.

Just try not to move, all right.

All right, on 3.

1, 2, 3.

CHILD 1: Wow, did you see that?

CHILD 2: That was super cool.

CHILD 3: She saved him.

CHILD 4: She's awesome.

CHILD 1: That was so cool.

CHILD 2: She's a lifeguard.

Excuse us.

Make some room.

MAN: She saved him.

She totally saved him.

How do like your first day at the beach?

Awesome, you're awesome.

I loved it.

[THEME - JR RICHARDS, "WHITE LIGHT"]

THEME SONG: Sunlight break the day,

feel the hope rush in our veins.

Arms entwined keep us safe, give strength to love,

not to fade to white light not safe.

And I will hold you tight, keep you safe.

White light, keep us safe.

And I will pull you up, and I won't break.

White light, my fate, I will pull

you up even if it pulls me in.

My fate, keep us safe.

Keep us safe.

I'll keep you safe.

[knocking]

LILY: Hey!

Can anybody hear me?

Hey!

Is anyone out there?

Help!

I'm locked in here!

Hey, is anybody out there!

Hello!

Anybody!

Can you hear me?

I'm locked in here.

If anyone is out there, can you let me out?

Please.

Anybody.

Help me!

Hello?

Thank goodness.

The door lock is broken.

Can you open it from out there?

It won't open.

OK, can you do me a favor?

Can you go for help?

Sure.

Down the beach to Saf3 headquarters.

Can you tell them it's Lily, and I'm stuck in here.

Please hurry.

OK.

Chill.

It's just the toilet.

OK.

I'm gonna be fine.

MAN: You think it's fine?

It's not fine.

WOMAN: Please calm down.

You're gonna scare Lily.

[banging] MAN: Shut up.

WOMAN: Stop.

MAN: Don't think you can tell me what to do.

WOMAN: Stop, you're hurting me.

[breathing deeply]

[banging]

Tell me we're not lucky.

Look at this place.

Amazing view, amazing kitchen.

Dunnigan's gifts just keep on giving.

About time.

Glad you guys are back, man, because I am starving.

Was waiting to make breakfast.

You got any eggs?

Did you get the eggs?

I thought you got the eggs.

Gotta be kidding me.

I guess I'm making a run to get breakfast burritos.

TEXAS: We're sorry, guys.

Hey.

There's a girl name Lily stuck in the bathroom in the park,

and she told me to come get you guys.

- What? - What?

Lily, she's stuck in the bathroom.

Hey, let's go guys.

Hey, stay here and monitor the radio.

Copy that.

Lily.

Alfonso.

Thank god.

ALFONSO: What happened?

LILY: Please just get me out of here.

All right.

Get back as far as you can, OK.

OK, hurry.

What a place to get stuck.

All right, get back.

[drilling]

WOMAN: Stop it.

Stop!

MAN: Lily, where are you?

Get out here now.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Are you OK?

What happened?

I was just jogging and I stopped to--

I don't know.

Somehow the lock broke.

Man, you're clammy.

- I'm fine. - Come on.

Come on. Let's give you a ride back.

Come on. - That's OK.

I'm gonna walk.

I just-- the air will do me good.

Thanks, you guys.

Could have been worse.

They just cleaned this thing yesterday.

[music playing]

[SINGING] I wish it could last forever,

our time beneath the sun.

Tell tomorrow to take that day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

Fall into deeper levels like lightning in a jar.

Tell tomorrow to take the day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

Wait a minute while I see more.

The scene I'm living in will be done.

I know I'll tell you later, I could be low.

I been down that road, never go home.

The people I want forget when I'm gone will never be far.

I won't be alone to say it now.

We need love we can make it if we run.

I wish it could last forever, our time beneath the sun.

Tell tomorrow to take the day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

Fall into deeper levels like lightning in a jar.

Tell tomorrow to take the day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

Feeling 'cause I know walking with it slow,

take my time to go to get it.

They'll never understand, make believe

I am [inaudible] I stand.

Oh, never wonder what you can remember,

but I plan to take him from the sand and spread it loud,

take it over and direct us back again.

Fall into deeper levels like lightning in a jar.

Tell tomorrow to take the day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

I wish it could last forever, our time beneath the sun.

Tell tomorrow to take the day off.

I love it just the way that we are.

[chatter]

Wow, that's so pretty, Talisa.

Thank you.

It's shaped like a heart, see.

Yeah, I guess it is.

You know, when I was a little girl

I used to collect starfish and give them to my mom.

Like a present?

Mmm hmm.

She loved it.

You know what'd be nice?

If you gave this heart rock to your mom.

I don't know.

But I bet she'd love it.

You can tell her all about your day at the beach.

She's not really home that much.

Hi, Charley.

Thanks for all your help today with the kids.

Time to go, Talisa.

Aww, I don't wanna go.

I love it here.

We can come back another day.

Bye, Charley.

I'm going to miss you.

Bye, Talisa.

I had a great time with you today.

Thanks for coming to my beach.

That's a great thing you're doing with these kids, Heather.

I'd love to help somehow.

There's lots of activities all the time.

So just let me know when you're available.

I really felt a bond with Talisa.

I'd love to do something with her sometime.

She could really use mentor.

Her mom's a crack addict.

She lives in horrible conditions.

And she really likes you.

I know it would mean a lot to her to see you again.

Gotta run.

Bus is leaving. Thanks again.

See ya. - Yeah.

Push it.

Give me one more.

Dude, what are you talking about, man.

I just did it. - One more.

Lock it up. - I'll lock it up.

You're killing me.

Yeah, I'm a stud.

Hey, guys.

Wow, looking good, girls.

Looking good.

Thanks, Texas.

This is my friend Lex.

This is Texas and Chase.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah, you, too.

Off to the beach?

I'm ready for some rays.

Hey, don't forget the sunblock.

Maybe I should join you.

That'd be awesome.

Thanks, but it's a girl's day.

See you later.

See ya.

TEXAS: Whoo ooh!

That, my friend, is Malibu's finest.

You know we're not racing to Catalina, Lily.

When I said let's go for a light paddle,

I had something completely different in mind.

Guess I just had some extra energy to burn off.

All right, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait, wait, wait.

Whoa.

Wait a minute.

Seriously, what's going on with you?

I'm fine really.

And you'd tell me if you weren't OK, right?

Of course.

Think it's just that double shot of wheatgrass

I had this morning.

If wheatgrass gives you that much energy, I want some.

Man, I am starving.

Point beach or subway?

We can do Point Piece if you--

Oh--

Let me guess.

It's either a flyer for a car repair

or somebody really wants to do something with your haircut.

Actually it's from a certain hot redhead.

Word?

Who Lex?

Would love to hang out with you when it's not a girl's day.

Man, I hate to say this 'cause you

really do not need the ego boost,

that can be from anybody.

I told you she was flirting with me.

And she said, and I quote, when it's not a girl's day.

Those are the exact words Lex used.

I'm in. - Mmm hmm.

Mmm hmm.

And what about Graciela?

I thought things were heating up between you two.

She has this thing about working together.

Wants to take it slow.

So in the meantime--

I hear you.

What? I'm not married.

You sure.

Yeah.

Let's go.

All right.

I personally still think Lex wanted me.

I mean, come on.

Dream on.

Hey.

Hey.

Heard about your rescue.

Nice work.

Thanks.

Oh, that doesn't sound good.

There is this little girl, Talisa, at the beach today,

and I can't seem to get her off my mind.

She's with A Chance for Children.

It's a foundation for at risk kids.

And one of the volunteers told me about her home life.

It sounds awful.

Well, you know we spend all of our days here at the beach.

It's pretty easy to forget that there's a city just east of us

where a lot of kids--

I don't know-- they struggle to survive.

Yeah.

Guess we get caught up in our own little bubble, huh.

I don't know.

I'd just really like to help her.

Have you ever been to East LA?

It's actually where I grew up.

Pretty tough neighborhood.

And if someone like you hadn't made

the effort to take an interest in me,

I wouldn't be here today.

And I don't mean just here in this room on the beach.

I mean here.

You said you wanted to help, right?

Well, there's a difference between deciding

to do something and actually doing it.

Dunnigan used to say to me you can pretend to care but you

can't pretend to show up.

Took me a long time to understand that.

Yeah.

Thanks.

I'm gonna do something.

I'm going to figure out how to get in touch with her.

GRACIELA: I like that guy.

You only like him because he looks like Chase.

That's not true.

Mmm hmm.

Ooh, that guy's really hot.

That one.

He looks just like Jason Momoa.

Oh, the guy who played Conan?

Mmm hmm.

He's hot.

Uh, he's my boyfriend.

Oh.

OK, truth or dare.

Oh, love it!

I haven't played in forever.

OK, truth but you go first.

No, that's not how it works.

That's how we played in my country.

LILY: What do you mean your country?

You went to Samo High.

Oh, right.

I can't use that on you.

But you go first.

It was your idea.

OK.

But this is more serious than just truth.

A few weeks ago when we were locked on that boat

and I started freaking out, it wasn't just

because of what was happening.

I started having all these memories, memories

I had completely blocked out.

I knew something was going on.

I just didn't want to push you.

I guess I've always had problems

with being in confined spaces.

There are things that happened when I was a kid.

It's like all the memories are flooding back in detail,

and I can't shut it out.

GRACIELA: All of us have scars from childhood.

Do you want to talk about it?

I don't know.

It's stuff with my stepdad.

He used to yell a lot and sometimes hurt my mom.

I was afraid, so I used to hide in the closet

where it was safe.

Today when I got locked in that bathroom stall,

it's like I was suffocating.

I went completely out of control.

Lily, you need to talk to someone, a professional.

This could affect you on the job.

You have to tell Alfonso.

No.

I can't tell him.

He's your friend, Lily.

He's also our boss right now.

He should know what you're going through.

The last thing I need is this on my file.

I'll work it out.

I just need some time.

Promise me you won't tell.

This is just between us, OK?

I've never betrayed a confidence.

I won't start now.

Thanks.

[sirens]

Um, excuse me.

I'm here to pick up a little girl.

Can I get inside?

Not until they finish processing the scene.

What happened?

Drive by shooting.

Can we get in?

Sorry, man.

No can do.

Strict orders.

Come on.

Let's get out of here.

I can't just leave.

I promised her.

Could you do me a favor?

Can you get a message to the little girl?

Tell her Charley's outside.

I can wait.

You're going to have to wait until an officer can

accompany you.

Sorry, ma'am.

Which apartment are you looking for?

Um, apartment B.

This little girl have a name?

Talisa.

Talisa Taylor.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

That little girl's been taken to Watts General Hospital.

Oh, my god.

Come on.

Let's go.

Thank you.

Hey.

Charley?

How you doing?

My leg hurts.

I'm sorry.

Where is my mom?

Did she come?

Um, I'm not sure.

I haven't seen her.

Maybe she's at work.

She doesn't have a job, but she goes

away a lot trying to find one.

Well, I'm sure when she finds out what happened,

she'll come as soon as she can.

I was afraid.

You're safe now.

I'm still scared.

If my mom comes, they might come back 'cause

my mom's always with David.

And I heard those guys yelling for him.

Then I heard pop, pop, pop.

Who's Devon, sweetheart?

My mom's boyfriend.

I hope my mom comes soon.

I'm gonna stay right here with you until she does, OK.

Excuse me, has there been any word

on the little girl's mother?

No, I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Hey.

Hey.

Any word from her mom?

Nothing.

It is so heartbreaking.

Here's this sweet little girl who's hurt and afraid.

All she wants is her mom.

Yeah.

I understand.

More than you could ever know.

Kacie.

Hey, what's up.

I was just heading to the beach.

What's that?

Oh, I saw it sticking up from your wiper.

I thought it was an ad. I was just gonna toss it--

Ooh, let me see it.

So what is it?

Secret admirer.

A secret admirer?

Yeah, but I know who it is.

You do?

Yeah, of course.

And you're OK with it?

What guy wouldn't be?

Look, I gotta run to the store.

I'll see you later.

Remember, I want mine toasted.

Well, since Chase is at the store,

this is all you're getting.

DISPATCHER: Malibu 1, 10-57, civilian needs assistance,

20121 Dekker Canyon.

RESCUER: 10-4, be advised, Route 1099.

1099, they're at least a half hour away.

And we're closer. Come on.

Let's go.

Wait, what are you talking about?

You're on light duty.

Someone out there needs help, and you may need me.

So I'm going.

We'll call the others on the way for backup.

Come on.

What do you got?

One of our guys went down to see

if this old electrical vault could be rewired.

When we lost contact, my lead electrician

went down after him, and he hasn't come back.

How long has he been down there?

Over 20 minutes.

Graciela--

Uh huh?

Take IC.

How deep is this?

Maybe 50 feet.

Got any blueprints?

Mister, until last week, I didn't

even know this vault existed.

All right, do you know if this is the only entry point?

As far as I know.

Texas, suit up.

All right, Texas will go down and assess the situation.

These guys might be injured.

What's that thing for?

It let's us know if we're dealing

with any dangerous gases.

[inaudible] gas monitor in place, ready to test.

GRACIELA: Test OK.

Oxygen reads 21%.

Good to go.

Hook him up.

We'll safety him down.

Starting face cam.

Face cam, audio and video feed confirmed.

Good to go.

Down 10.

O2 level at 18, 17, 16.

[struggling]

Lots of corrosion down here.

Keep the line tight.

We got you.

O2 level dropping fast.

There must be some sort of gas leak down there.

I have a visual.

Two men down.

[struggling]

Hey, what's going on are you OK?

Texas, are you all right?

What happened?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm good.

Standby.

Victim 1 is breathing.

Very weak pulse, no sign of trauma.

GRACIELA: Oxygen reading has dropped below 5%.

We've got to get him out of there now.

Texas to Vega, I'm securing victim number 1

in the safety harness now.

Stand by.

OK.

Victim 1 ready to extract.

We need another set of hands over here.

Texas?

Can you hear me?

Talk to me.

Texas.

Guys, I think he's unconscious.

2, 3, go.

Texas is down.

O2 is dropping.

Blood gas levels will be extremely low and dangerous.

At that level, these guys could have less than four minutes

before brain damage occurs.

Something's wrong.

Something's sucking up all of Texas's air.

Graciela, call Hazmat for backup.

Lily, there's a BA suit in the back of the truck.

We got to get down there fast.

I thought the O2 reading was fine.

GRACIELA: It suddenly plummeted.

Something must have happened when he hit the ground.

All right, so there's no room to get a cage down,

so we'll send the harness back down.

We'll get the next victim, then Texas.

Got it. - Copy.

Let's go.

Come on.

Confirm when you're ready.

Ready.

All right.

Fast but steady. OK, Chase.

All right.

GRACIELA: Hazmat, this is Vega with Fire Division Saf3.

What's your ETA?

DISPATCHER: Fire Division Saf3, this is Hazmat.

Estimated time of arrival is 12 minutes.

Stand by.

Over.

Graciela to Lily, we're sending

a second tank down to you now.

LILY: Texas' mask is cracked.

Weak pulse, breathing shallow.

Lily to Graciela, I'm securing victim number 2

in the safety harness now.

I can't locate any gas leaks or what's causing

the lack of oxygen. Stand by.

Ready to extract.

All right, steady.

That's it.

Keep on coming.

LILY: I'm moving over to Texas now.

I'm going to swap out his mask.

Stand by.

Hey, the MTs just arrived.

Gary, are you OK?

Yeah.

GRACIELA: No gases.

Why is there no O2?

No carbon monoxide, no ammonia, no methane, nothing.

Got it.

The gas meter wasn't reading gases because there aren't any.

It's rust.

Rust consumes oxygen to survive.

The low oxygen is why they passed out.

MAN: Don't you walk away from me.

Get back here.

You can't leave me.

I'll never let you divorce me.

I'll kill you before I let that happen.

LILY: No.

No, stop.

I can't do this.

I don't want to.

Please stop.

I know you can do this, Lily.

I have every faith in you.

Trust your training.

OK.

OK.

Thanks, Graciela.

Stand by for Texas.

[exhaling] Wow.

Well, that was intense.

Yeah, I know.

My adrenaline is still pumping.

Who would have thought rust could do something like that?

You know, those guys would've been dead

if you hadn't figured it out.

How did you?

Well, the foreman said the area had been

sealed off who knows how long.

And when I saw there was no oxygen reading and no gases,

I realized it had to be rust.

Who knew rust could do that?

They call it a silent killer in chemistry.

Well, I'm just glad we got to them in time.

Me, too.

Lily, I know you're freaked out in there.

You know you need to talk to Alfonso.

I'm going to be fine.

GRACIELA: Lily, I'm not asking you.

I'm telling you.

CHARLEY: I brought a dress for Talisa today.

Well, that's nice of you.

I just want her to feel good.

Today is going to be really hard on her.

What do you mean?

Social services is coming to put her in foster care.

I just wish there was more I could do for her.

I feel so helpless.

Charley, you've already done more than you think.

People don't realize it only takes a little to do a lot.

When I was 15 years old, I was basically on my own.

And my mom disappeared and left me to take

care of my little brother.

And for a short time, we were in a homeless shelter,

and things could have gone either way.

But there was this man, this man a Reuben

who took an interest in me.

And it's because of him that I am who I am today.

I mean, he showed me that he cared,

and he kept encouraging me to stay strong, not only

for myself but for my brother.

And out of the hundreds of kids that he worked with,

he made me feel like I really had a chance.

And I didn't want to let him down.

I wanted to live up to that.

That's what you're doing for Talisa.

Yeah.

Kacie?

Hey.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Traffic on the PCH was awful.

So you wrote the notes?

I mean, yeah.

Yeah, of course, I knew.

I mean, I just had to mess with you.

Let's go.

I love my new dress.

It's so pretty.

I'm glad you like it.

I picked it out just for you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Did my mom ever come?

She'll really like my new dress.

Talisa, a lady is coming to take

you to stay with some nice people for a while.

But what about my mom?

I know they're going to explain it all to you.

But we never could find your mom,

so you're going to stay with a foster family

until we get it all figured out, OK.

Hello.

This lady is going to take you to--

Protective services.

I know.

I've been there before.

Promise I'll see you soon, OK.

Until then, I have something for you.

You can call three numbers with this phone.

If you press 1, you could talk to a policeman.

If you dial 2, you can talk to Heather

at A Chance for Children.

If you press this one, you can talk to me anytime.

The starfish?

Yeah, the starfish.

It's going to be fine, Talisa.

Everything's going to be OK.

After my dad died, my mom got re-married

to this guy named Carl.

I haven't said his name in years.

I'm sure lots of kids have stories about evil stepfathers.

I never considered him to be any kind of father.

He used to beat my mom.

You never knew what would set him off.

It's crazy, but I had completely blocked out all the memories.

And then a few weeks ago, when Graciela and I

were locked on that boat, it's like it brought back

all those feelings of being out of control

and having no escape.

It's like it released something in me.

It all came rushing back, every detail.

When I was on the rescue, I started

to feel those same feelings of being out of control.

I know I should have told you.

I guess I just thought it would go away.

You know, Lily, I'm no expert, but it sounds

like you might have PTSD.

And maybe the fear will never go away completely,

but the first step is acknowledging it.

I know I put people at risk.

You spend so much time taking care of other people

that it's important for you to remember that you gotta

take care of yourself, too.

[THEME - JR RICHARDS, "WHITE LIGHT"]

THEME SONG: Sunlight break the day,

feel the hope rush in our veins.

Arms entwined keep us safe, give strength to love,

not to fade to white light, not safe.

And I will hold you tight, keep you safe.

White light--
