ANNOUNCER: Previously on "SAF3."

The sound of the fire outside the shelter

still haunts me to this day.

When I was 15 years old, there was this man named Reuben

who took an interest in me.

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

That's him, Kacie.

That's your father.

[beep]

BECCA [ON PHONE]: Hi, it's Becca.

Call me.

Yes!

I have a little brother.

Now, he's a little bit of a drifter.

I don't think he even knows about what happened to me.

Graciela!

Graciela, come on!

I should do more stretching.

I keep telling you, if you don't, you're

eventually going to get hurt.

Yeah, I know.

But I figure doing yoga is my way of stretching.

Are you ready to go?

If you're waiting on me, you're backing up.

Help!

Hey!

Help!

GRACIELA: Lily.

Hm?

Help!

Lily, let's go.

Help!

Oh, help.

Oh, thank god.

We were fishing off the rocks.

My friend got washed off by a big wave.

And he can't swim.

And I can't get to him.

[MUSIC - MAX, "U GOT ME ROCKING"]

[SINGING] I take you high up in the sky.

Pump it up now.

Give it to me, give it to me now one time.

I take you high up in the sky.

Give it to me, give it to me now.

Give it to me, give it to me, better, now.

Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me now one time.

I can't believe my eyes.

This club is oversized.

Let me give you once advice.

Burn the roof down, no disguise.

The temperature is growing.

So everybody's going down, down, down, down, down, down, down!

[gasping for air]

[SINGING] Ooh, yeah.

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down.

He has a pulse, but he's not breathing.

Oh, my heavens.

My angels, my beautiful angels.

THEME SONG: Sunlight, break the day,

feel the hope rush in our veins.

Arms entwined, keep us safe, give

us strength to love, not to fade into white light, my fate.

And I will hold you, 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.

Thanks for the coffee.

You're welcome.

Don't forget, Sunday at 3:00.

My parents are really looking forward to meeting you.

Ah!

No pressure.

Stop!

They're going to love you.

Well, if you say so.

Can I bring something?

Just yourself, and that sexy smile.

Yeah, that one.

This one?

Good luck today.

Call me.

Tell me how it goes.

ALFONSO: I will.

Later.

Excuse me.

Alfonso Rivera?

Yes?

I'm Vince Chadwick.

I'm sure you won't remember, but a few years ago,

my family's house burned down.

My father was inside.

You-- you saved his life.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, man, how you doing?

Nice to meet you.

And thank you for saying that.

He's going to be so happy to hear that I saw you.

Well, tell him I said hello, man.

I will. Thank you.

It's been a pleasure meeting you, man.

You, too.

[MUSIC - INSPIRED SOULS, "TO THE TOP"]

[SINGING] Come on, girl, don't stop it now.

Keep on playing that game.

You got me shaking somehow.

Come on, I've got right the plan to take you with me tonight.

You stay, 'cause I'm your man.

We rock it like we can.

What can I say?

Pretty nice guy.

What do you think?

It's perfect.

It's exactly what I want.

Thank you.

[music playing]

[SINGING] Get into the groove.

Crash the records.

Boom the bass.

Crash the records.

See?

That's what I'm talking about, man.

Your boy got skills.

Don't get too cocky.

[SINGING] Show me what you got.

Take it home.

Mm.

[SINGING] Show me what you got.

Bam!

Ah.

20-20.

It's my turn.

Ooh.

He just canceled my score.

You better get used to the sound of metal on metal, pal.

I'm going beat you like a redheaded stepchild.

Do they still say that?

Ah.

Come on, Jared.

Aw, come on.

[SINGING] Take control.

Jared, seriously?

Come on, man, you threw that so high,

you're going to bring down rain.

Hey, hold your weight.

Come on.

Team.

Oh.

Ah.

Now, that's what I'm talking about, boy.

OK?

Beat that.

OK.

[SINGING] Put them on them on dime,

it's nice to meet with a line.

They can't believe I've got a cheeky

and stick with the rhyme.

Get it.

Get it.

Eh, that's luck.

Oh.

Ha!

Right.

Here we go.

- Joe. - It's definitely out.

- That's us. - Mine's closer.

We win. - What, do you want binoculars?

Look at it. It's so red.

- Dude, you must-- - No way.

--still be suffering side effects from the crash, man.

That is clearly-- [interposing voices]

--not your point.

Hey, have you got a tape measure?

Yeah, I got a tape measure right-- no, I don't have a tape

measure in my back pocket. - Oh, man.

Come on, it's red. You can see it from here.

Yo, what's up, fellas?

- No. - Please.

- Which one is closer? - Black.

And this is for the win.

You guys are actually having an argument about this?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

It's clear as day.

Black gets the point.

Oh!

We win.

Game over.

Hey.

What?

Ha ha ha.

Hey!

Thanks for showing up, dude.

What?

Yeah.

- Dude! - What?

Whose side are you on?

Dude, you asked!

Yeah, you're right.

You're right.

Hey, what's that?

Oh, I got a tattoo!

- You got a tattoo? - Yeah!

When did you get a tattoo?

I got a tattoo today.

Uh-uh.

Yes.

Look.

Let me see.

So it's-- the other day when you were talking about

your tattoo, I felt inspired.

So I decided to get one of my own.

Oh.

OK.

Well, you know, I mean, I get it.

I mean, why a watch, though?

Well, the day that I was burned,

I was wearing a watch that my mentor gave me.

Reuben.

And the skin under my watch is about the only part of my body

that didn't get burned.

So in my opinion, it's kind of like Reuben's way,

I don't know, like, protecting me, you know what I'm saying?

Oh, he probably still is.

But no, ah, look, I get all that man.

But why the Roman numerals and things?

All right.

So the time is 2:33, which is the time the fire came over me.

And the zigzags signify that the watch is broken, the glass.

And then I put the date it happened in Roman numerals

in the band. See?

Oh, wow.

I mean, that's-- that's pretty powerful.

But you know what the crazy thing is is I realized

that the day I was burned is the same date

that my brother and I moved into the homeless shelter

and met Reuben.

So my life changed twice on the same date.

And since Father's Day is this weekend,

and Reuben is the closest thing I ever had to a father,

the tattoo is my way of honoring him

and the turning points in my life.

Yo, that's deep.

You know, my dad just came in.

He flew in last night. - Oh, that's cool, man.

Yeah.

You guys got plans?

Yeah, we're going to go to a Dodger game.

It's what we do.

I mean, I've been doing it since I was a kid.

And since my dad was a doctor at UCLA,

it's just been, like, tradition.

Oh, OK.

Yo!

You know, since it is on Sunday, like, you can come on out.

We're just going to do a little barbecue and chill.

I appreciate that.

But Becca invited me to hang out with the family.

- Oh. - Family.

- The family. - Yes.

Oh, I see.

Yes.

Wish me luck.

[laughs]

[whirring]

[knocking on door]

I'll get it.

Father Ben.

Father Casey.

Come in.

First, I want to thank you very much for saving my life.

Oh, that's so nice.

And we'd like to invite you to Our Lady of Malibu

for a special mass on Sunday.

Oh, wow.

Thank you.

That's very thoughtful.

[ominous music playing]

Hey!

Come and see who's here.

Oh, hi.

Nice to see you again.

- Hi. - Hi.

How are you feeling?

Better, thank you.

We know you girls are on duty, so we won't keep you long.

But we really would like to see you on Sunday.

Oh, thanks.

That's so nice.

- That's so nice. - We'll do our best--

- Thank you. - --to be there.

Thanks.

Thanks for coming by.

Bye.

Glad you're doing OK.

Bye.

Wow.

Who knew we were saving a priest?

Well, that means more points in heaven.

Hmm hmm.

Yeah, so they're going to do a mass for us.

- Really? - Yeah.

Oh, that's really nice.

Oh, wait!

This is not just a mass.

They're going to do a novena for us.

Oh, my god!

It means they're going to pray for us for nine days!

This is huge!

I got to call my mom.

[music playing]

You know, I don't think you should be getting

your tattoo wet, Alfonso.

When I got mine, they told me not

to get it wet for three days.

Well, Lily, it's not my first tattoo.

Besides, soft where it heals.

Whatever.

When it gets infected, don't say I didn't warn you.

You know, why is it that guys don't listen

and they never go to the doctor? - Oh.

You're so generalizing right now.

But it's true.

No, it's not.

I do like it, though.

Thank you.

I know Father's Day is this weekend.

You going to be OK?

Yeah, I'm OK.

You got any plans?

Well, funny enough, Garciela and I

rescued a priest this morning.

A priest?

Yeah.

And they invited us to Sunday mass.

They're doing a novena for us.

- A novena? - Yeah.

A real novena.

Uh-huh.

Girl, that's a big deal.

Well, apparently.

That's what Graciela said, too.

So I guess maybe I should go.

Do you want to come?

Uh, I'd love to, but I'm actually meeting

Becca's parents this Sunday.

Wow.

Meeting the parents is a way bigger deal than a novena.

I might need a novena after meeting them.

[laughs] You'll be great.

Hey, Pop.

Do you remember when you took me out of school

to go to a Dodger game?

[laughter]

I remember that.

I remember getting called to the principal's office, man.

And my heart was beating so fast, because I

just knew I was in trouble.

[laughter]

Yeah, I remember you had a very high fever that day.

Yeah, I liked the way you played

it up, too, rubbing my forehead in front of the principal.

[laughter]

Then we get to the car.

I open up the door.

And in the seat, I see my baseball glove.

[laughs]

See, right then and there, I knew it could mean one thing.

The Dodgers were playing Game 1 of the World Series,

and me and my pop were going.

[laughter]

I mean, come on, who would have thought

that Kirk Gibson would have hit the game-winning home run?

Huh?

Well, like Vin Scully always used to say,

and in the year of the improbables,

the impossible happened.

Yes, sir.

You know what I can't wait to have?

One of them Dodger Dogs.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, Pop, those Dodger Dogs are so good.

Yeah.

Man, oh, man.

Now, you know with those dugout seats that you purchased?

Yeah?

We get food delivered all day long.

And matter of fact, they have a waitress that brings

the food and the drinks to us.

- Let's do it. - Well come, on.

Let's do it. Let's do it.

- You got the tickets, right? - Yeah, I got them right here.

TEXAS: OK.

Uh, uh.

What's wrong, Pop?

Um, I put them right here.

I put them right--

OK, well, where'd you have them last?

I put them in my pocket. I-- I--

- You put them in your pocket. - I put them in my pocket.

OK, well, if they're not in your pocket,

they got to be in the car, right?

Let me take a look here.

Ahem.

All right, you know what?

Don't even worry about it.

We'll pick some up when we get there.

Come on. Get in the car.

But-- but I swear, I-- I put them in my pocket.

I know. Pop, you told me.

It's OK.

We'll get them when we get there.

Let's go.

We got to get there.

Buckle up.

All right.

I put them--

I put them--

Hey.

I-- I-- I put them in my pocket.

I know, Pop.

I heard you.

You put them in your pocket.

We'll find them.

GRACIELA: Oh, Lily, I'm so excited.

There will be a lot of people.

My whole family, my sisters, my other brother,

my nephews, my nieces.

A lot of food, a lot of music.

I hope you like spicy.

That's really sweet of you.

Thanks.

I know you won't be with your family,

but we always have so much fun.

Is it OK if I let you know?

Sure.

Sometimes, Father's Day is just a little tough for me.

Yeah.

I can't imagine losing my dad like you did.

You were so young.

I should have gotten up that morning.

Lily, honey, your father is leaving.

He wants to say goodbye.

I'm sleepy.

Come on, honey.

Daddy's fighting that wildfire we saw on the news last night.

He may not be home again for days.

Come say goodbye to him.

Mm, no.

I don't want to.

I didn't even get out of bed to say goodbye to my dad the day

he died.

Oh, honey.

[horn honking]

[children cheering]

Hey!

How are you all doing?

[interposing voices]

Oh.

Hi!

OK, guys, hold on.

I've got to go help Zane. Oh.

[interposing voices]

Thank you, sweetheart.

Yay!

I'll take those.

Cool, ma'am.

Yeah.

Thank you.

My sister, it's so good to see you.

[non-english speech]

How are you?

Good.

Zane found out you had a new place to live.

So we wanted to make sure you had the basics to start over.

Thank you so much.

[non-english speech]

And these are for you guys.

Woo-hoo!

[non-english speech]

Once again, you are my angels.

Seeing you makes us so happy.

Thank you so much for everything.

[non-english speech]

REPORTER [ON TV]: Tonight there's a battle underway,

as brave men and women continue to face a test of will,

courage, and endurance.

With temperatures soaring into the mid 90s

all across Southern California, the threat of wildfire

increases.

In an effort to contain the wildfire,

over 150 firefighters are on the ground.

[SIRENS BLARING AND HORN HONKING]

And the blaze is still out of control.

This is the deadliest US wildfire involving

firefighters in over 80 years.

The fire has already taken the lives of six firefighters,

and continues to threaten the lives of many more.

As a result of the fire, the Pacific Coast Highway--

Hi, this is Norma Maddox.

I'm-- I'm wife of firefighter Brad Maddox.

I've been trying to find out any information

on my husband or his unit.

They're fighting the South Canyon fire.

OK.

Yeah.

But please, please call me if you hear anything.

This is the third call I've made today.

Yeah. Thank you.

REPORTER [ON TV]: This is the deadliest US pilot error

in all of the county.

We'll reconvene in two weeks' time--

[music playing]

Hey, what a game yesterday, huh?

Your dad must've had a good time.

Oh, yeah.

Three Dodger Dogs and two bags of peanuts later.

And that was all before the first pitch, man.

How long's he in town for?

Well. he's supposed to be here until Tuesday.

But you know, I've been doing some thinking.

It may be good for him to stay for a little while.

It's not going to cramp your style?

No, no, absolutely not.

I'm actually kind of worried about him.

Yeah, why's that?

Well, he's getting older now.

And I'm starting to notice stuff.

You see, him and my mom, they had me late.

He's 70 now.

And ever since my mom passed, he's been getting,

you know, more and more forgetful.

Now, I don't know if that just because how he's been,

and I just haven't noticed, because my mom always

did everything.

Yeah, it's not easy watching your parents age.

No, it ain't.

So that's why I'm going to ask him out,

have him stay with me for good.

Ah, I gotta tell you, man, I really admire the relationship

you have with him.

Hm.

So I have a bit of dad news myself.

May is pregnant.

- What? - Mm-hm.

No, really?

Yeah, but please don't tell the rest of the team.

We're keeping it quiet for now.

She's going to wait till she's past the first trimester

before we put the word out.

No, hey, mum's the word, brother.

Congratulations, man.

Yeah, thanks, buddy.

You're going to be a papa.

Yeah.

Thank god you didn't give up finding

your dad and your grandparents.

Look how it paid off.

Yeah.

My first Father's Day with my dad.

That sounds weird to say.

My dad.

I have to get used to it.

Are you sure John's OK today?

I asked him to join us, but--

Oh, yeah, he's fine.

I think he just wanted to give you space.

And he told me he made plans with old friends.

So.

Are you sure you don't want to come with us, you know,

since you can't be with your own dad?

Yeah.

I'm fine.

I'm actually going to call him right now.

And I made plans.

So I'm good.

Go enjoy your day.

You're sure.

Totally.

OK.

There they are.

Have fun.

I'll see you tonight.

Hey, Dad.

[phone ringing]

JEFF [ON PHONE]: Hi.

You've reached Jeff Frazer's voicemail.

Sorry I missed your call.

Please leave a message at the beep.

[beep]

Hey, Dad.

It's Charley.

Just want to call a little early and say Happy Father's Day.

Um, give me a call when you get this.

Bye.

[phone ringing]

ALFONSO [ON PHONE]: Hey.

Hey, Alfonso.

Hey, Charley.

You'll never guess what I just did.

No way.

That's awesome.

I can't wait to see it.

[music playing]

[SINGING] Is it really what you wanted?

I know I've got to leave you alone.

Goodbye.

I'll see you, I'll see you in a little--

I got a date.

[SINGING] --while.

Is, is it really what you wanted?

I know I've got to leave you alone.

Oh, my god.

Alfonso?

What happened to you?

[SINGING] Goodbye.

I'll see you in a while.

I just can't believe it, man.

No one told me.

Don't think I didn't try.

I hadn't had a number for you in over a year.

Like I said, I just can't believe it, man.

You all right?

Yeah.

I am now.

Good.

[buzzer]

Hey, listen, man, I hate to do this to you,

but I got somewhere I gotta be.

Why don't you just hang and chill here?

When I get back, we can keep talking.

Cool.

[door closing]

[music playing]

Sweet.

I really love your tattoo and what it stands for.

Well, that's good, because you helped inspire it.

Did I?

Yeah!

When you told me that it was the moment that changed my life.

So you and your brother didn't really get a chance to talk?

Mm, not really.

What we did talk about was mostly about the accident.

But I didn't want to be late, so I left.

Well, you know you could have brought him along.

Are you kidding me?

Remember, I was meeting your family for the first time.

I wanted to make a good impression.

Really?

I'm sure he's not that bad.

Yeah, you don't know my brother.

Here, let me lay this out.

There you go.

Thanks.

[grunts] You know, it's actually not fair that

I say that about my brother.

He had a tough time after our mom died.

Just fell into a bad crowd.

I should have never let that happen.

I feel like I should have pushed him harder

to do what I knew was right.

You can't always control the choices people make.

Yeah, that's true, but you can always push them

harder to make better ones.

I suppose.

Were you guys close?

Yeah.

You know, being the older brother,

I was like his mom and his dad.

Well, he's lucky to have you.

I enjoyed meeting your family tonight.

I did.

They're warm and they're funny.

Oh.

I was ready to die when my mom showed you my baby teeth.

What are you talking about?

That was the highlight of the night,

except the whole before and after braces pictures.

- Oh. - Yeah.

Don't remind me.

Dance with me.

I don't know.

I'm not really a good dancer.

Oh, come on.

I'm sure you're not that bad?

I promise.

I could teach you a few moves.

I don't know.

Trust me.

[music playing]

[SINGING] When I met you, my hope was gone.

I locked my heart away.

I'd been lonely for so long.

But you were patient and let go of fear.

I feel myself changing for the better when you're near.

Oh, I never needed somebody like this.

How can I show that I'm ready to love you completely?

Because when the waters rise under broken skies,

you were my higher ground.

And on the darkest of days, I won't let you lose your way.

Oh, yeah, I'll be your lighthouse.

Mm, mm, mm.

In my dark eyes, I see the key to a beautiful future,

because together we are free.

Mm, mm, mm.

[humming]

[phone ringing]

MAN [ON PHONE]: Hello.

This is Hal's Pawn Shop.

Hey, what's up, man?

[birds singing]

I love you, Daddy.

I love you too, sweetheart.

Go back to sleep.

[shower running]

[yawns]

ARIO: Yo, man.

Yo, man.

You want to tell me about this?

I thought it was cool.

I was curious to see what it was worth.

Curious.

That's why the last call you made was to a pawn shop.

OK.

I needed some cash.

I'm broke.

Well, you know you could have asked.

Hey, I'm sorry.

I didn't have time.

Is that why you're here?

No, man.

Why would you think that?

[beeping]

Hey, Lily.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I-- I'll be there soon.

We're not done talking about this.

And take off my robe.

I know it's late.

Thanks for meeting me.

Of course.

You're just the first person I wanted to talk to.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Actually, it was a good day.

I had dinner with Graciela and her family.

And then when I went home, I remembered

something really important that I had completely forgotten.

And I feel like this huge weight has been lifted off of me.

OK.

What is it?

Well, you know my father stuff is the hardest thing I've ever

had to deal with in my life.

Yes.

The day he died has haunted me for all this time.

I know it sounds crazy, because I was only 10,

but I carried around all this guilt

that he didn't know that I loved him.

And then tonight, I realized that he did know.

It's like he gave me a gift for Father's Day.

Oh, man!

OK.

Woo-woo!

I see you still got it, old man.

What do you mean?

I've always had it.

Oh, there you go.

So Pop, look, um, I've been doing some thinking.

And since mom is gone, and me and you live so far away

from each other, I was thinking maybe you should, you know,

come here.

I am here.

No, I know that.

I mean-- I meant to live.

You know, I knew I put these somewhere.

Found them when I was buying you a drink.

Were you worried that I might be losing it?

7/21/76.

10/19/82.

4/15/47.

OK, Pop, what's that?

July 21, 1976, the day I met your mother, the most

beautiful woman in the world.

October 19, 1982, proudest day of my life when you were born.

OK.

What's the other number?

April 15, 1947, the day the Brooklyn Dodgers

broke the color barrier by signing Jackie Robinson.

All right, Pop, I get it, OK?

Maybe you don't have to move out here after all, man.

Well, first of all, son, it means

a lot to me that you would even consider having me come here.

But I'm happy in Texas.

Your mother loved it there.

Her family's there.

I feel closest to her when I'm there.

This is my life now.

I know, Pop.

It's just that I miss you, man, I worry about you,

and I just don't want to regret not

spending enough time with you.

Do you know how many dads wish they

could have their son say that?

You make me proud.

How about I come out and visit more often and you come home

and watch the Horns play more often?

Oh, OK.

You ain't said nothing but word.

All right.

Hook 'em.

Hook 'em.

So you have no idea why he suddenly chose to show up?

Nope.

He is my brother, though.

I know.

I just hate to see him disappoint you again.

I appreciate you looking after me.

I do like Ario.

I just would have thought he would

have gotten it together by now. - Yeah.

Me and you both.

I think what he needs is a job.

I'm going to try to see if I can help him out.

I heard that one before.

I know, I know.

I know I keep doing the same thing over and over,

but I don't know. Maybe this time it's different.

Maybe-- maybe it'll stick.

Well, I hope so, because it seems like for as long

as I've known you, you've been taking care of him

one way or another.

Sorry, I gotta go.

- Oh, cool. - OK.

- Thanks-- - See ya.

- --for stopping by. - See ya.

Later.

I just left Mami and Papi.

They wanted to come, but they just--

they just couldn't.

It's Papi's first Father's Day today without you.

They're trying so hard to be strong,

to continue with our lives, but there's such a big hole

in all of our hearts.

I think of what a good father you would have been.

I miss you.

I miss you, Diego.

Te amo mucho, hermanito.

[birds singing]

Thank you, Daddy.

I love you.

Happy Father's Day.

THEME SONG: Sunlight, break the day,

feel the hope rush in our veins.

Arms entwined, keep us safe, give us strength to love,

not to fade into white light.

CHARLEY: --on "SAF3."

My dad just came in.

He flew in last night.

We're going to go to a Dodger game.

You got the tickets, right? - I put them in my pocket.

I'm actually kind of worried about him.

Oh, my god, Alfonso.

What happened to you?

MAN [ON PHONE]: This is Hal's Pawn Shop.

You want to tell me about this?

Is that why you're here?

Dance with me.

CHARLEY: Next-- - Help!

CHARLEY: --on "SAF3."

Oh, my god, Alfonso.

What happened to you?

Dance with me.

CHARLEY: Next-- - Help!

CHARLEY: --on "SAF3."

Dance with me.
