Adjusting flight elevator to neutral.

So, Beth did what now?

She invited her mother to come
stay with us for a month.

What are we running, a summer
camp for the aged and ornery?

Ugh, wind's picking up. Easterly.

15 knots.

So, Estelle is leaving Vermont?

I thought she hated hot weather.
Apparently not as much

as she loves torturing me.

Look at all those tiny, lucky
ant people down there.

Not a care in the world.

And all of those tiny ant people

have a horrible, torturous story
of their own,

many of them involving a
mother-in-law.

They look so peaceful from up here.

LTA Airship Six to tower.

Two minutes out
to our stadium flyover.

Another record crowd today.

And for those lucky fans
who correctly guess

today's attendance number,
you can win a VIP package...

Record crowds?

This gets worse by the minute. Mom.

Excuse me!

Watch where you're going!

Mom, you seriously need to chill.

I will not chill.

After everything you've been
through in the last year,

I don't know how you could
possibly think that being

in a stadium filled with 50,000
people was a good idea.

It only holds 23 and a half.
I checked.

Mom,

what has this past year been about?

Okay? Me getting better.

So that I get to do all the
normal things

that everyone else gets to do
without batting an eye.

Order up.
This isn't normal.

It's reckless.
No, these are reckless.

And too much cheese isn't good
for you either.

This isn't cheese. It's cheese-adjacent.

You're my little baby girl.

I just don't want to lose you.

Mom. Stop.

Look, it's a beautiful day.

Nothing's gonna happen.

Things are looking up.

Deflecting starboard rudder.

New heading radial, 48 degrees.

Elevator wheel's disabled.

Rudder pedals, too.

The fire must've burned through the lines.

Mayday, mayday, mayday!
LTA Airship Six to tower!

We are going down!

Who the hell are you calling?

Copy that. Have you notified
air traffic control?

They are aware.
Where's

your anticipated landing zone?
LAPD can clear

the area.
You're not gonna

clear 20,000 people in time.

Where are you headed?

Nearing the 110,

headed for Cal-M Stadium.

How close are you, sir?

200 feet.

All units, all units,
be advised...

we have a blimp losing altitude.

About to crash into Cal-M Stadium.

Close the 110 from MLK to Exposition;

shut down the Metro E Line;

deploy emergency mass
casualty protocol plan.

Wind's picking up.

Change of plans!

Headed right for the stadium!

I can't pull up!

Come on, girl! Come on!

You can make it a little bit further!

We're not gonna make it!

Bracing for impact!

Oh my god!

It's a bomb! Run!

Oh, god! Run!

Fay! Fay!

Fay! Fay!
Mom!

Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Oh! Let's get you out of here!

Oh, my gosh.

She's got a bomb.
She's got a bomb!

Dispatch, be advised,

the blimp has crashed
into a lighting truss

on the south side
of the stadium.

Approximately 60 feet
off the ground.

Buck, Hen, kill that light tower.

Eddie, once the ladder's in position,

you and Chimney run point.

Glad they don't fill those
things with hydrogen anymore.

Remain calm!

There has been an accident!

There has not been an attack!

What? No, you're wrong!
There's a lady with a backpack!

It's got all these wires coming
out! I think it's a bomb!

Take him to the safe zone and
stay with him!

I'm gonna take a look!

727-L-30 to Dispatch,

I just received a report

of a possible IED

on a female in the concourse.

Copy,

727-L-30.
We sure that's not a mistake?

That's what I'm gonna find out.

Cap, power's out.
Safe to approach.

All right, let's bring it up.

Eddie, Chim,
ladder's moving into position.

Let's get that fire out.

Dispatch, this is 727-L-30.

I got possible visual on IED at
the eastern concourse.

It's… it's...

It's not... it's not a bomb.

It's my heart.

Please...

...find my mom.

Dispatch, I got eyes on
the alleged IED.

It's definitely not a bomb.
Some kind of medical device.

She says it's for her heart.

I'm sending you a picture now.

Uh, that looks like
a pneumatic pump

for an artificial heart.

It sends air through the tubes

to power an implant
in her chest.

I don't think it's functioning.
She just lost consciousness.

Her pulse is barely there.

Must be damaged.
Should I start CPR?

No. The implant is made
of hard plastic.

Compressions will only
jam it into her sternum.

Do you see another backpack?

Another one?

She wouldn't go without
a backup.

Someone else must have it.

I think her heart's shutting down.

How long do I have?

If the heart is shutting down,
minutes.

Fire's out, Cap.
Swing us over to the cab.

All right, bring them on back.

Not sure how long you'll have.

Blimp's getting heavier
as it deflates.

Making entry.

Wind's picking up.

Careful. Every pound
of weight distribution

matters in this thing.
Noted.

Just scoot over slowly.

We're gonna go one in, one out.

There we go.
Just slide...

Okay.

Your hand. Okay.

I got you.

That's it, Chim,
nice and easy.

Nice and easy.
Let's get her down here.

Eddie, Buck is on his way up
to help you

evacuate the co-pilot.

On your left.

Eddie. Hey.

Cap, pilot's coming, too.

All right, Buck, you move fast,

you move safe. Let's go.

Sir, can you feel the pressure
I'm applying?

Yeah. Yeah.
Good.

Ma'am, I need you to stay still.

You may be injured.

I'm gonna call for help.

Dispatch, I need a team
to the east escalator bank

for an injured woman.

My daughter...

Yes. I'm on my way to her right now.

Stay put here.
Help is coming, okay?

Dispatch, I have the device.

On three.

One...

...two, three.

You got it.

Eddie, this thing is really rocking.
You got to be ready.

Cap, lower me three feet.
Copy that, Buck.

Tachycardic. Pulse is strong.

Didn't see any gross fractures
in her extremities.

Everything's clear.

BP's 152/90.

Do you feel any pain in
your abdomen, ma'am?

No. My daughter.

What about your daughter?

She's still inside.

I'm here. What do I do?

Remove the broken pump
from the backpack

and unspool the clear tube.

Disconnect them from the
connectors around her waistline.

It should look like
a plumbing fitting.
Okay.

Then attach the connectors
to the new device.

Once it's secure, put in the battery,

and it should power up.

Come on.

Nice and easy.

Eddie, this thing is gonna go.

Come on.

Any movement?

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on,
come on, come on.

She's breathing.

Well, they say any landing you can
walk away from

is a good landing.

Hey, you're alive.

You, too.

Hey, so, how they gonna get
the rest of that thing down?

Not our problem.

Is she okay?

She's doing fine.

Mom?

You're gonna be okay.
Okay, I'll see you there.

It's okay.

How was crowd control, Sergeant?

Got called in to do an emergency
heart transplant instead.

Well, you win.

Eh, who's keeping score?

What did the doctor say?

I'm definitely broken.

How'd you break your foot off-duty?

Yeah, we thought you were
going to that

family reunion weekend.

Yeah. That's how I broke it.

We were playing football,
I got shoved from behind,

and I just rolled my ankle.

Avulsion fracture
of the fifth metatarsal.

Yeah, what they said.

Happens a lot when you
roll your ankle.

Wait, so… so, one of your brothers
pushed you from behind?

My niece Delilah.

She's seven and kind of vicious.

She's my favorite.

So we probably won't see you
for a few weeks, then?

Doctor says between four
and six weeks.

I am really sorry, Cap.

I hope I didn't ruin your honeymoon.

Don't worry about it, I'll find
somebody else to cover.

You just let us know if you need anything.

All right, gang, let's get ready to

turn it over to B-shift.

Uh, hey, hey, Cap.

Um, wh… what did Lucy mean
about ruining your trip?

I was gonna have her fill in for
me when I was gone.

Uh, you were gonna make Lucy
interim captain?

She, she hasn't even been here that long.
Not the 118,

but she's been a firefighter
for almost ten years.

She's more than qualified.

Well, yeah, but o… other people here

are also qualified.

Hey, I appreciate the vote of confidence, kid,

but I don't need to pressure
Cap into asking me.

I'd like to pressure him into
not asking you.

Oh, you want to be
interim captain again?

Because the last time you did it,

I recall the words "never again."

That was from the rest of us.

Thanks, Cap.
But never again.

It is nice to be asked, though.

So it doesn't bother you?

That Bobby didn't even consider
either one of us

for interim captain?

Not really. Just got back to the 118.

Clearly it's bothering you.
Listen,

don't get me wrong,
I think Lucy is whatever.

You know, she's great, but she's out.

You know, I think it's weird that

he's struggling to pick a replacement
when he has

so many other excellent options

right under his nose.
Like you?

It's like he's choosing not to see them

and everything they have to offer.

Time. Aw, you'll win next time.

What are you offering?

Right now, Bobby's famous lasagna.

Six types of cheese,
cooked to perfection.

Okay, very hot.

Don't use your hands.

It does look good.

Smells really good, too.

And it only took me
three tries to get it right.

I'm not sure you get three tries
on a job.

At least not without a significant
body count.
I just want to know

what these other candidates have
that apparently I don't.

Buck, you don't even
have a couch.

Uh...
Boom!

...so what does that have to do
with being fire captain?

It's weird.

My last two couches came
with girlfriends.

I think you mean your last
two girlfriends

came with couches.

Taylor moved out, what, four
months ago, Buck?

You could have replaced
the couch by now.

Uh, well, maybe I don't want to
pick the wrong couch again.

Maybe that's how Bobby feels
about interim captain.

Hey.

Sorry to bust in on your night off.

No worries.
What happened?

Well, we were getting ready
for bed, we heard rain.

Found out it was raining
in my kitchen.

Oh. What did your landlord say?
He's with the plumber right now.

Hopefully it'll be an easy fix.

Calling a plumber at 9:00 on
a Saturday night?
Daddy.

Can you say "double overtime"?

Oh my god, did you have plans?

No, I just ordered in.
I was gonna finish

that movie we started watching
last week. Here we go.

Whoa. Without me?

Maddie, you fell asleep watching it.
Twice.

Okay, well, maybe third time's
the charm.

Is that the landlord?
Yeah.

I should have water by tomorrow.

Or Wednesday.

Sounds like your landlord needs

to find a better plumber.

Yeah. And I'm gonna need
a hotel room because

I can't go four days without
running water.

You know who else has running
water? Me.

Why don't you just stay here?
I'll crash on the couch.

You girls can have the bedroom.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to impose.
Maddie...

we're still family, hmm?
That's what we do.

We look out for each other.

Don't we, Baby Jee?

All right.

Now, remember to keep your head down.

I know.
Keep that left arm straight.

I know.
Just pretend you're swinging in a barrel.

Okay, Dad, what does
that even mean?

All right. It means you
want to keep

all your weight back on
your right foot.

Minimize your hip turn when you swing.

Keep your head down,
looking at the ball.

Wait, what?
You want to keep your weight back,

limiting your… your...

Wait, I...

Hey. Hey, guys!

Do you mind?
We… We're trying to hit here.

You know what?

Forget it. I'll shut up, just do

whatever feels natural. But...

I'm gonna give you a little
good luck charm.

Your lucky ball?
Come on, Dad.

Don't put more pressure
on me.

Ah, come on.
You can do it.

Oh, I hate this stupid game.

I didn't see it come down,
but I'm sure we'll find it.

You know, there's another thing
that could be

affecting your swing.

That new hardware
on your left hand.

My wedding ring?

Dad, don't even start.

Vito and I are married now

whether you like it or not.

We're very happy, I might add.

I'm not talking about

your shotgun wedding.

Only that you should try wearing
a rubber wedding band

on the course like I do.

You never used to play this bad

when you and Joey were dating.

Yes, I did.

You just didn't care because

you and Joey would always

team up and "go low"
or whatever.

Half the time I'd quit at the turn,

and you barely seemed to notice.

Man, that Joey was
one hell of a putter.

Great on the fairway, too.

You sure he wasn't the one?
Yes.

God!
Aah!

Are you okay?

Yeah. I think so.

That ring saved my hand.

Dispatch, 118 is at the golf course.

Victim in sight.

How long has he been down?

We heard there was a shooting.
I got this one, Cap.

Uh, have you recovered the weapon?

Negative. It's still embedded
in the victim's chest.

Okay, we better double…
time it.

You guys know what to do.
Let's go, let's go, come on.

Hang in there, Dad.
Help is here.

Excuse me, sir, can you step back?

My team is gonna take a look
at your dad.

I'll take a look at that hand.

Let's move back here, give them
some space.

I got you, sir, I got you.

Looks like we got a keyhole
thoracic entry wound

on the right sternum.

Bleeding is steady, but from
the lack of spurting,

looks like it missed the aorta.

Heart rate is 165 BPM.

Systolic BP is 98,

indicating the patient was likely
struck by

a large-caliber round.

What was your dad shot with?

My tungsten wedding ring.

Never saw that in combat.

Based on his bilateral breathing,

it looks like his ribs
stopped the ring

from puncturing the lung.

Preparing hemostatic bandaging
to pack the wound.

Running morphine and fluids.

How exactly did this happen?

I was trying to fish a ball out of
the wood chipper,

but my hand got sucked into
the blade.

My ring jammed it long enough
for my hand to slide out.

But then the ring just
went through.

Don't worry, Cap, securing
the perimeter. I'm on it.

Well, your five fingers
are still intact.

None of them appear to be broken,
so I guess

you're very fortunate you're
not single.

All right, let's get him on a gurney
and transport.

Doctors should be able to remove

the offending ring at the hospital.

I'm gonna call Mom and tell her
to meet us at the hospital.

Oh, and tell Joey I'm not
gonna make it

to the driving range tonight.

You're seriously still playing golf
with my ex-boyfriend?

He's like the son I never had.

The one who can play golf.

Being a 911 dispatcher will be challenging

and exhausting, and can take
an emotional toll.

The people who call are scared,
in need,

and we are their lifeline.

But it's also rewarding.

Calling us is probably the scariest
moment of their lives.

But if we do our jobs right and
help arrives in time

and we get a little lucky,

then maybe it doesn't have to be

the worst moment of their lives.

She nails it every time.

Do you have goose bumps?
Don't you?

A new call center, a new team
of dispatchers,

and Chimney asking you to move
back in with him.

Everything's returning to normal
around here.

I wouldn't go that far.

He did not ask me to move back in.

I'm just staying with him for a few days.

Or forever.
It's not like that.

Why not?

You clearly still love each other.

Just get back together already.

What if he's not ready for that?
You know?

I know that he loves me,
I just don't know

if he wants to be with me.

You can't keep playing these
guessing games, Maddie.

If you can't figure out what he wants,

maybe you should tell him
what you want.

Wow, they all look so... young.

These are your future college
roommates?
Yeah.

But when they see me walk in,

they're gonna think I'm their R.A.

Are you having second thoughts?

I mean, I said I wanted the full
college experience,

and here it is.
Mm-hmm.

Now, I'm sure I'll adjust.

I mean, I have to, right?

It's not like I can go back to my job

or my apartment or all the other things

I gave up to be roomed with
three high school girls

that were randomly selected
for me by a computer.

I'll be fine.
I'll be fine. Okay.

I'll be fine.
It's going to be an adventure.

Enjoy it.
Yes.

All right, what do you think?

That you're a mustache away

from giving serious
Magnum P.I.vibes.

Hey, I'm in full cruise mode here.

I got to make sure my resort wear
is on par

with the competition.

Why don't you bring both of them?

When else would you get a chance

to wear those at home?
Well, I would,

but I already committed
to one small roller bag.

Well, how many bags are you
bringing, Mom?

More than one.
Uh-huh, and I have accounted for that.

Our stateroom is exactly 330 square feet...
Oh, my.

...but the closet's only 25.

I don't want us stepping over
our bags the whole time.

330 square feet?

I mean, let me guess.

That's already been logged in
to the cruise spreadsheet?

Right next to the dinner specials

and the daily activities.

And I still need you to sign off
on some of my selections

so we can lock those down.

I told you I'm good with the branzino.

Right.
I just don't see why

I would have to jump off of
a perfectly good boat

for no reason.

It's called snorkeling, and it's fun.

It's a whole ‘nother world down there.

I'm more than happy with
the one I'm in.

Which one?

The shirt on the right.

Done.

Looks like you're gonna have
an adventure, too.

Welcome to Rod Billings Cars

and the annual "touch a car,
win a car" contest.

The rules are very simple.

One hand must be touching
a car at all times.

No exceptions.

Last one standing drives home
in this beauty. Huh?

Now, who's ready to touch a car?

Win a car!

Let the games begin.

Yeah!

Win a car. Win a car.

Win a car. Win a car.

Disqualified.

You're still here.
Still here.

Psst.

$1,000 cash
to walk away right now.

Go get a big meal.

Take a nice cold shower.

Over my dead...

Oh, God!

We got a call about an injured...

Hey, how long have these people
been standing out here?

28 hours.
Uh, is that even legal?

Let's take a listen.

Ma'am, when's the last time
you had any water?

Two days.

Been trying not to drink that
much because

water equals pee,

and pee equals losing.

And I need this car.

Well, based on your lower back
pain and what sounded like fluid

in your lungs, I'm guessing
you're suffering

from acute kidney failure.
Not to mention you probably

damaged your bladder.
Look, I need to keep one hand

on this car at all times. Can't you run

an IV in the other arm or something?
: Okay...

How you feeling, sir?
I can't imagine

it'd be easy being out in the sun

going on two days.
I'm doing fine.

I could go a whole ‘nother day.

Me, too.

Cap, we got to do something.
She's refusing to leave.

My guy won't budge either.
He's in it to win it.

Okay, how about this competition

gets paused so they can get treatment?

You can pick it up in a day or two,
maybe inside

so they're out of the elements?
Sorry, but no can do.

What do you think people are
gonna say

when they find out a woman died
at your dealership?

I am trying to give you an out here.

Rules are rules.

Okay, and the rules are

they have to keep one hand
on one part of the vehicle

at all times, right?
That's right.

Okay, Buck?
Oh, am I on it, Cap.

Saws and jaws.

"Saws"?

You're not gonna cut
that lady's arm off, are you?

I don't need to.
She just needs to keep her hand

on some part of the vehicle
at all times.

You didn't say that part has to remain

attached to the vehicle.

You can't just come in here
and carve up

my inventory like that!
Hey, "rules are rules."

Oh, hey, more reporters.

It's gonna play great on the
morning news.

They both win a car!

Because here
at Billings Auto Emporium,

the only thing bigger than
our deals are our hearts.

Athena?

Wait, what time is it?

3:15.

Our lunch date was 2:00, wasn't it?

Yep. I figured

you forgot, but after you
canceled the last few times,

decided that I would force the issue.

Even brought you some tacos
from Don Rivera's.

Your favorite.
Oh...

Friend.

I don't know whether to lead
with "I'm so sorry"

or "Thank you, I'm starving."

Ah, neither is necessary.

I know how busy you've been

with work, family and medical school.

Oof.

It's starting to feel like

I'm the living example of that whole

"be careful what you wish for"
thing right now.

I hear you have some big exams
coming up next week.

End of year two.

I used to think they were exaggerating

about how bad the boards would be.

Now I'm starting to think

that maybe they undersold it.

Oh, I know you must be feeling

a lot of pressure.
Have you talked to David?

I mean, he's been where you are.

Is he coming back from Haiti soon?

Oh, it doesn't sound like it.
He, Michael and Harry

have set up a home base in Miami,

and David commutes from there.

How do you feel about all that?

Now, you know I miss Harry.

But he sounds happy.

That's what matters to me.
All right, well, maybe

I will give David a call.

I just need to get through these finals

and then I can take a breath.

Who is that texting you?

Just some cruise update from Bobby.

I mean, he has been watching
this ship's activity calendar

like it's the ball dropping from
Times Square on New Year's.

What? I thought the whole point
of those things was

to unplug and relax.
It is for me,

but Bobby wants to keep busy.

Six nights, seven days.

11 bars.

Oh.
I'm sure

it's not the easiest place
in the world

for someone who's in the program.

But he's trying to show me
a good time,

so I don't mind returning the favor.

Oh.

Oh, great.

An eco-tour?
Listen.

If that trip gets to be too much,

you could always hide in the spa.

If? Okay.

Huh, did not see that coming.

Ooh, what'd I miss?

I missed everything.

Again.

Third time is definitely not the charm.

I'm sorry.
Don't worry about it.

Why don't you just go to bed?

Because I hate admitting defeat.

And it's still really early.

Isn't it?

You know, it's weird, the only reason
why I picked this movie

is ‘cos I thought you would like it.

I don't know. Maybe I just don't
have the patience

for these movies anymore, you know?

Two people meet, you know that
they're gonna end up together.

And then you have to watch them
bumble their way

through stupid misunderstandings
for two hours.

I don't know.
It's kind of annoying.

So you'd rather your rom-coms

have less "com."

I don't know.

I guess I would rather see

two people overcome real
problems and...

...still get their happy ending.

That would be more satisfying.

Yeah, it would be.

Chim?

You fled your own apartment?

What? I had to get to work.
Two hours early?

You know how the morning after
can get kind of awkward?

I just figured it might be easier for me

to not be there for it.
Is that so bad?

Don't look at me.

I once asked Shannon to sneak
out of my house

so Christopher wouldn't see her
in my bed.

You see?

Compared to that, I'm as chivalrous
as Sir Galahad.

Or as delusional as Don Quixote.

I don't understand. Isn't this what
you've been wanting?

What the two of you been
working towards?

It is, it just feels like I'm waiting

for...

something.
Well, with Shannon, I tried

to tell myself I was doing it to
protect Christopher.

The truth is, I was just doing it
to protect myself.

What's wrong with that?

You didn't skip the morning after
conversation, Chim.

You just delayed it.

And you added a whole new
complicated layer.

I had a one-night stand with my ex.

I don't know what the rules are.

Maybe that's what you need
to find out.

Whoa!

I am so sorry!
That I bumped into you? Don't be.

I… I'm...
Maddie!

Your class is sort of

legend at the academy.

A 7.1 earthquake your first day
on floor.

I'm Noah.

Uh, good to meet you, Noah.

So, any tips for the newbie?

Remember to breathe.

The person on the other end

is already panicked and they don't
need you to be.

Sounds easy.

I'm pretty sure it isn't.

It gets easier eventually.

What's your name and where
are you calling from?

My name is Kenyon and we live

at 646 Ridgeline Court.

Hi, Kenyon. I'm Maddie.

How old are you?
I'm 12.

But my brother's only six.

My mom left me to look after him

while she went to the grocery
store and now he's gone.

Okay, start from the beginning.
What happened?

We were playing hide-and-seek
and he just disappeared.

Jeremy!

What, do you think maybe
he's still hiding?

I don't know.
It's been a really long time.

And I've looked everywhere.

I keep yelling his name,
and he always

comes out when he can tell I'm mad.

-Jeremy!
Okay.

Usually we don't send the police

until we know someone's missing.

But I'm gonna send an officer
to you just in case.

What if he ran away?

Has he done that in the past?

No, but I used to when I was his age.

"Used to"?

Why'd you stop?
My mom.

She'd get so scared.

It took her a really long time
to stop worrying about me.

Yeah, yeah.

I bet it's hard to get over
being afraid like that.

What are you afraid of?

Uh, what?

Is there someplace in the house

or the yard
that no one ever goes?

Someplace that's so creepy

you hate having to go there?

Uh, under the house.

My mom used to store Christmas
decorations under there.

Sounds exactly
like the last place

your brother would expect you
to look for him.

Are you serious, Jeremy?!

Dang it!

You found me.

I'm home!

I got to go. Thanks, Maddie.

Yeah, you're welcome.

Hi.

I'm not leaving.

The apartment or...?

This family.

That's what you called us, and
that's what I want.

The three of us together.

That's...

that's what I want, too.

When I woke up the other morning
and you were gone,

I felt... sad.

Yeah.
Probably the way

you felt every day those six months
that I was gone.

Look, I don't expect you to
keep apologizing for that.

I'm not.

We're past apologies.

This is a promise.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm done running.

Me, too.

What you doing in my ambulance?

Uh,ourambulance, and...

I got to say, Wilson, it's kind of
a mess in there.

No labels on the drawers.

Tough for an outsider to find

their way around.
Sort of the point.

If I'm elected interim captain,
I would have

you doing some serious
maintenance right now.

A whole organizational overhaul.

This is not a class president
election, Buckley.

And you don't know what the hell
you're talking about.

What I'm talking about is,

your fluid levels are also low.

Oh, really, which ones?

‘cos I just

topped off the oil, transmission,

brake and coolant.

Per my report,

your windshield wiper reservoir

is down to three-quarters full.

Uh, you can't just take that.

It's department property.

And a weapon in the wrong hands.

Cap, you need to officially

announce your replacement
because I can't take any more

of Buck trying to prove himself.

Oh, that's what he's been doing.

I'll have a talk with him.

So, who is it gonna be?

Our new interim captain.

It's a tough call.

And, honestly, I wanted it to be you.

Me?

What?

You're smart, dedicated,

compassionate, and you're decisive.

You're a great leader.

I mean...

you know when I first entered

this department, Captain Gerrard
didn't even

see me as a firefighter.

And now, 12 years later, my boss
is telling me

that I have everything it takes
to make a great captain.

And you do.

But you didn't pick me.

I know how much you have
going on outside of work.

And I didn't want to overburden you.
It's not

that much of a burden, Cap,
I'm already here.

Right, there's all this paperwork...

Already do a lot of paperwork, Cap.

This can add another hour

or two to every shift.

You'll be gone a week.
That's what?

Three shifts?

Okay, so you'll do it?

Yeah.

I'll do it.

Hey.
Oh, uh, h… hey, Cap.

I'm so sorry this is still such a mess.

I'll have it polished and reorganized
within the hour.

I think it all looks great.

I see you've been going the extra mile

lately and I appreciate it.

Oh, just trying to show you what I got.

I already know what you got, Buck.

But I'm not naming you interim captain.

Hen has agreed to take on that role.

Okay?

Um, yeah, no, I mean...

come on, it's Hen, she'll… she'll
make a great captain.

And so will you.

Someday.

You're a great firefighter.

When you're all in, nobody
goes harder than you.

But being a good leader is
about more

than just the work.
It's also about life experience.

And I think you need some more
of that before you're ready.

Is this ‘cos I don't have a couch?

Why don't you have a couch?

I… I don't know, um...

I guess I… I've been having
trouble picking one out.

I think I'm afraid of making
a mistake again.

In AA there's this idea

that you take inventory of your life

admit your shortcomings

in hopes that one day

you can look at the world
straight in the eye

and be alone at perfect
peace and ease.

Come on, you, uh,

you don't think I'm at ease?

I think the important thing

is that you answer that question
for yourself.

But when you are, you'll know.

And then you'll be ready.

Hi.
Hey, Karen.

It looks like

I'll be home a little bit late.

Okay, babe.

All right. Go.

Here you go, here you go.

Hey, ooh, can I help you with those?
No, but you can help

with everything else still in the car.

Ooh, turns out Mama's got a lot
of stuff, huh?

Mama leave?

No.

Mama stay.

That shirt is so loud,

I can hear it from here.

Well, if you like that,
you are going to love this.

Oh, my word.

This cruise is our first adventure, Mama.

Shouldn't our clothes be adventurous, too?

Cruises are not adventures,
not anymore.

Don't be silly, Beatrice.

Cruises are a blast.

Oh, and our baby girl

is beautiful as always.

I second that, Samuel.

Aw, thank you, Daddy.

Okay, sweetie, I got to go.

What? We just started talking.

Yeah, I need to pick up some things

at the hardware store.

Mm, are you starting another project?

There are no projects.

He's going out there to meet
with his friends.

Mm-hmm, isn't that what bingo is for?

I hate bingo.

But I do love shuffleboard.

Have a great trip, sweetie.

All right.

That man has every kind

of nail and screw on God's
green earth,

and he hasn't built a thing
since he were a child.

Samuel!

Mama?

Mama?
