Previously on fire country...

Have you heard of fire
educated communities?

Hey!

You're the Edwards kid

that chose the badge over the ranch.

This life that I'm
building, I want it with you.

I'm not ready for that.

I have to figure myself out first.

Promise me that you're
taking care of yourself, Gabriela.

If you were to ask

my family, my dad had his heat stroke

picking up my slack
on the ranch that day.

It's weird now,

living in the same town,
and we're not speaking.

I meant what I said.

We can't end like this.

I want our family back.

I'm just not ready yet.

Look at us, two inmates
turned graduates.

Look at you. What?

It's a nice dress.

Can you believe that we were

just here at this bar,
and I said, "I love you"?

We had good times, though.

Come on.

Come on, you got to
be kidding me. Come on.

Come on!

A kick to the keypad
used to do the trick for me.

But I'm guessing that wasn't
really just over a cup of soup.

Heard you requested a parole hearing.

That's great.

It's not a done deal.

Don't you have some
place you got to be?

Like your first official day at 42.

Wanted to stop here first.

I owe you a big thank-you.

Hey.

You want to thank me?

Bury your old self.

And don't look back.

'Cause I don't ever want
to see you back in orange.

Copy?

I copy.

Hey.

So, about the other night...

We were a safe space on a bad day.

Yeah, yeah, a truly, truly awful day.

That can't happen again.

I think everybody makes mistakes.

Yes, we did, and we are
so much better as friends.

Obviously, we have to tell bode.

I'm not in the habit of telling an ex

that I slept with someone else.

Bode's a brother to me.

That's between you two.

Yes, but you two are...

We were. I am single, and I
washed down a bad day with sex.

Okay, hooking up
with my best friend's ex

is something I don't want to be doing.

No, no, no, no. Do not
put an ounce of shame

onto two friends that
made a human mistake.

What, a mistake?

No, a mistake i-is
sleeping with a stranger,

but this-this-this is different.

Are you forgetting that before I
was with bode, I was with you?

I'm not forgetting anything.

I lost Cara, then I lost
gen, and that other night

is how I know I lost myself for a minute.

Sleeping with me is how
you know you lost yourself?

Gabs, it's not about you.

Look, I slept on my
integrity when we chose to do

what we did in my truck.

I... I'm just... Trying to own it.

Do what you need to do. I'm good.

Hey.

Neighbor.

I hope you keep a tidy locker.

Take a guess.

Is that your personal Teddy, or...

Guys bring them on calls.

Something you can give
to kids if they're scared.

It's a good move.

Got a picture of your mom in there, too?

It's of my whole family.

It's not for my locker.

It's a 42 tradition.

Put a picture of your loved
ones inside your helmet.

A reminder of who
you're coming home to.

I'm not putting a picture
of my cat in my helmet.

Give it time.

This place has a way
of giving you new family.

Looking forward to it.

Today is a fresh start.

As far as I'm concerned,
my past is dead and buried.

I'll join you there.

Rip to the old Audrey James.

Well, how about we
start fresh with a win?

Let's do it.

Yeah, I see it. We're on it.

We got to get units to
Cooper's Ridge, like, pronto.

Cooper's Ridge again?

That's our new fun reality.

Year-round fire season.

Yeah, but is there even
fuel left up there to burn?

Who knows? But it's
spreading fast, and it looks like

it might make it to
chezem if we don't get on it.

Eve's family's ranch is in chezem.

Yeah. And elroy Edwards,

not real big on vegetation management.

Been trying to get a fire
break in there for years.

You think she could sell him on it?

I don't know.

Only one way to find out.

No.

Sorry, that...

That made that more
dramatic than it needed to be.

I just...

Breaking six years of
cold shouldering with...

"Hey, dad, can I set your land on fire?"

I just don't think that's gonna go well.

Except it kind of has to.

This burn's been put off for way too long.

You talking about the Edwards ranch?

Yeah. We all know how much
your family ranch means to you.

Meant to me until my family shut me out.

I think it's time to pull them back in.

Your father loves and misses you.

I know this.

Eve.

Chezem valley really
needs this back burn.

Okay? It's a choking
point with lots of fuel.

If the wildfire makes it there, it's...

All of edge water's in deep trouble.

Okay. All right. Okay.

How do I begin to reason
with a stubborn old man?

Yeah.

Right. Stubborn old man.

Start small. Maybe get three rock

to cut some line before you
even mention a back burn.

Maybe cap will let me

come with you, try and convince him.

I mean, your dad always liked me

when he was coaching little league.

Okay, thanks. I... look, I-I
think I have to do this alone.

Okay, I'll take three rock with me,

and then I'll radio you guys
when I'm ready for the burn.

Yes. Yeah.

All right. Thank you.

Did you smell your milk today, probies?

Every day you put on that uniform,

your head has to be on a swivel,

every one of your senses active,

from the moment you
pour... You pour your milk

on your cereal.

I'm a black coffee kind of a girl.

This isn't training.

You have to look after you now.

Pay attention to every detail.

Smell your milk. Got it?

Let's go get that win.

Good thing we smelled some milk.

Hey, what are we looking at?

Last year, it took us,
what, something like a week

to get the Cooper's
Ridge fire under control.

Six days, start to finish.

Vegetation hasn't grown back.

Yeah. There shouldn't even be

any fuel for these spot fires.

Does the smoke look white to you?

Little pockets all across the Ridge.

You thinking what I'm thinking?

Zombie fires.

Zombie fires.

Also known as holdover
fires. They can smolder

underneath the ground
for months at a time.

Or even years.

You think they're dead, but
they keep coming back to life.

They're caused by
excess peat in the soil.

There's peat all over Cooper's Ridge.

That's what caused
this wildfire to spread.

So how do we kill 'em?

Well, you tell me, probie.

You're no longer in training.

We pray the zombie fires
stay up on that Ridge?

And we have a plan if they don't.

Since we never know when a
zombie fire's gonna resurface,

we get everybody out of there.

Okay, I'm pairing
people up. Jake, Gabriela,

you're gonna go start
a mandatory evacuation

on ridge way community.
Copy that, chief.

Is that my pass device?

It's not mine.

There's no way I haven't
moved in the last 30 seconds.

Yeah, it sneaks up on you.

That pass device could save your lives

one day, probies.

It's the best tool we have
to find a downed firefighter.

I want you two

to go prep the structures on alta cañada.

Remove the debris.

Wet the perimeter, bring
a saw up there with you.

Copy that, chief.

Hey, cap. What's up, big dawg?

Don't worry.

Deep down, he's gonna
be happy to see you.

Yeah, you don't know my dad.

You're right. I don't, but
I do know that I would

give anything to be
in his shoes right now.

To have my daughter
want to come find me.

Three rock.

This ranch is, dear to my heart.

So we're gonna respect it,
do everything by the book.

Manny, you're gonna

oversee the guys
while I go talk to my dad.

On it. This is chezem knoll,

south-facing. We're
gonna do a four-foot scrape.

We're gonna cut a break
in there and make sure

that's there's no more fire
coming through the valley.

All right?

Gentlemen, let's show these ranchers

who we really are out there.

Hey, daddy.

I know it's been a while.

First visit in six years,
you come in uniform.

Rolling up here in
that convict wagon, too.

It's a crew carrier.

I'm the captain at three rock. I know.

Saw your interview with that
reporter a few months back.

Your... fire... Whatever-it-is program.

Even got Elijah talking about it.

It's called fire educated.

Daddy, I'm really proud of it, so...

Throwing your weight around.

Telling people what they can

and can't do with their own properties.

We're here to help.

There are some wildfires
up at Cooper Ridge.

They're headed this way.

I came here to protect our ranch.

You forfeited your right to call it "ours."

Hey, where do you need me, elroy?

Hi, George.

Keep an eye on them convicts for me.

Daddy, do not call them convicts.

Why not? They've committed crimes.

They were accused of crimes,

sometimes not always rightly.

They're in orange.

Shoe fits.

Won't let them out of my sight.

Okay.

Where do you think you going?

Incoming!

Yo. Who is this beauty here?

Hey, I apologize if we overstepped.

I'm Manny Perez.

You must be one of Eve's brothers.

Her cousin, and I'm not
here to answer questions.

I'm here to make sure
none of you step out of line.

Well, today's your lucky day,
'cause that's not how we roll.

We do everything on
the up-and-up, all right?

And don't you worry. We
already got our babysitter with us.

Ain't that right, Manny?

Always do.

Well, this is my babysitter.

All right, boys.

Back at it.

Come on. Come on.

How many houses are
we evacuating? Ballpark.

About 60 or so.

Well, let's just hope
that they're cooperative.

Rig's low on water from the spot fires

coming up the mountain.

So let's find a hydrant.

Over there.

Can you believe this?

What's wrong with people?

It's your first time?

Well, you get the honors.

We really doing this?

You don't respect the law,

we don't respect your ride.

Go ahead.

Good. Get the passenger
side and we'll get you the hose.

All right, let's get to work.

Mom drove down to stock ton yesterday

to make some thoroughbred trades.

Yeah? How's she doing?

She's getting old.

Like we all are.

She had some gallstones
removed recently.

Those were painful.

Why didn't anybody tell me?

I-I would've... What?

Helped?

Yeah, daddy, I...

Y'all were the ones that ignored me,

for doing a job that
little kids dream about.

I don't even... No. You chose

that Leone family over your own.

That's why we ignored you.

Come on. Let me show you something.

We didn't expect her
labor to come on so quick.

Daddy, is that lucky?

Hey, pretty girl.

I was there when she was born.

How you doing?

You know, when the boys

wouldn't play with me, lucky would.

She's a hard worker, every cattle run.

Reliable.

She's a good girl.

Unlike me?

Well, she stuck around.

It's time.

Okay.

You gonna do this?

I helped bring her into this world.

I'm gonna help her now.

Eve, what's the status
on that back burn?

Don't worry.

Eve, you copy?

You need to get that? No.

This is more important.

Come on, breathe, girl. You got this.

Come on.

Come on.

Eve, come in.

Hi, there.

Are you two assigned here?

Yeah.

I'm bode, this is Audrey.

Hey, I'm Brian.

I'm really hoping you can save my house.

I-I'm prepared, I got,

I got spigots and I got pipes
with extra water pressure.

I've even got some industrial hoses

that the fire department
gave me years back.

You're well-prepared.

Yeah, the, fire chief
said she's safe for now.

We, we called her the
Nancy sue, after my mom.

It's a beautiful house, Brian.

My wife penny designed her.

She, picked that spot there for the porch,

so that we could grow old
together watching the sunsets.

But five years ago, she

she got cancer and she died.

I'm so sorry.

Felt like I died, too.

If this house burns, you
might as well let me burn with it.

I don't have it in me to start over again.

We'll keep your house safe. I promise.

Thank you.

You're a sucker for a sob story.

Are we really supposed
to make promises like that?

Let's just start clearing this brush.

Eve, I need status on that back burn.

Eve, you copy?

Eve, what is your status?

She's not answering?

No. And I don't like it.

Okay, I'll handle things here.

You go. You get us that back burn.

It could save all of chezem valley.

You did good, lucky.

James.

There's some white smoke here.

I'm gonna call it in.

Cooper ic, firefighter 1591.

Be advised we're clearing chaparral.

Appearing in the... In the ground

there's some strange... Strange smoke

just burst out of it.

Like a charcoal briquette
smoldering under the ground?

Bright white in color?

Dissipates slowly?

Yeah, all that.

Zombie fires.

They're here now.

Here are the hoses.

Thanks. That's great.

We need you to evacuate.

The fires starting to get
closer now, so it's mandatory.

No, no. The house.

How can I help you protect
her if I... if I have to leave?

Look, if you, refuse to leave,

and we get the sheriff's office down here

to take you away in cuffs,

they're gonna be real grumpy about that.

Tell me this isn't the last time I see

the only thing I have left of my wife.

You promised me.

My word means something to me.

I'll do everything in my power.

Now why would you
double down on that?

What about you?

Sheriff's office's gonna
take you away in cuffs?

How'd you come up with that?

Got him to evacuate.

Yeah, so did I.

Look at us.

Day one, and we're already
justifying the means to an end.

It will be better tomorrow.

We're bringing home this win.

For Brian and for us.

Let's get this whole yard hosed down.

Yo, do you mind pulling your horse back?

He's breathing down my neck.

I do mind.

Yo, enough. I need room to work.

That what you call this? Work?

Digging ditches people don't want?

Yeah, that's better than getting

some r&r on the back of a horse.

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, Cole. That's enough.

That's enough.

You have too much on the line here.

Forget this guy.

He'll never see us as people.

People?

You?

Killers and thieves?

You want to know about people?

My little brother.

Shot by a criminal just like you.

Robbed and left for dead
on the streets of Oakland.

You want to talk to me about people?

Eve... she told us about her cousin.

Yeah?

I bet Eve tells you a lot.

Airs out all our family business.

Actually, no.

Eve loves her family.

I'm sorry about what
happened to your brother, man.

But the work that we're doing here,

we're giving back to the
communities that we took from.

It's atonement.

Let us do that.

Come on. You all right? Yeah.

This is an order to evacuate.

The area is lawfully
closed to public access.

There is a potential
threat to life and property.

Keep moving.

Ma'am, you need to leave this area now.

Okay? Head to edge water

community center,
they have a shelter there.

I-I know, I know, but
our car ran out of gas.

We can't move.

Okay, well, then,
ma'am, you need to leave

your vehicle and find a ride to safety.

Hey, Jake.

That family can't leave their car.

I think they might live out of it.

Okay, well, what do
you want me to do, gabs?

Call a tow truck?

We got to get these people out of here.

Look, I'm gonna head towards Jefferson.

You go and do a sweep
around ensler court.

On it, cap.

Please.

Our whole life's in here.

My daughter's already lost a home.

Kneeland fire, few years back.

I'm gonna find you some gas.

Elroy.

Good to see you.

See you brought the
hose-humping cavalry, Vince.

Actually, I came because

Eve wasn't answering her radio.

Yeah, that was my bad, chief.

My dad and I were delivering a foal

and I had to remove my radio.

Don't apologize.

Yeah. Look, I know
you're not my biggest fan,

but this fire, got nothing to do with me.

And it's coming.

A back burn on some
of your grazing land

would prevent some significant loss.

Winds are high.

Things are probably
gonna shift pretty quick.

You know what hasn't
shifted in over a decade?

The leones involving
themselves in my family.

And when is that gonna finally shift?

Think he's ever gonna
come to his senses?

Nobody tells that man to cut a
blade of grass on his property.

And I get it.

I know a mirror when I see one.

Firefighter Perez.

Concluded evac on Jefferson.

What's your status?

Engine 1568, firefighter 1568.

Still working on evac
for civilians on ensler.

Come on, let's hit the other side.

Got it.

Leone, James, we have new
fires coming in from the east.

You don't have that much time.

Please, just let-let us use

whatever time we have
left to save this house.

We've almost got it under control.

Bode, I trust you.

If you think you can
do it, then you can stay.

But if this goes even an inch sideways,

I'm pulling both of you.

Copy that.

We can do it.

Bode... You sure about that?

Nice work, gentlemen.

We got your back, cap.

Elroy, I

I really don't want to do this, but...

We got to start this back burn.

It's funny how you think
it's your decision suddenly?

When you're on my property.

Your property is butted
up against wild land.

It is uniquely positioned between that fire

and the east side of edge water.

Let me be clear.

You do not have my permission.

With respect

because of the fire educated program, I

I don't need your permission.

You and your program
are gonna stand there and...

Let this man do this?

You look me in the eye,

tell me that six years later,

my daughter only came back here

to rip my heart out all over again.

Daddy.

It's the right thing to do.

1508 requesting additional resources.

Thank you, three rock!

42'll handle the back burn from here.

You or me.

Great work, three rock.

Hey, good work, homie.

Yo, Perez. What's up?

I owe you some gratitude, brother.

Some gratitude? For what?

For cutting line faster than you?

You better learn to keep up, homie.

Water up, boy. Hey.

You know what?

Double or nothing next time, okay?

All right. I'll take you up on that.

No. No, with John
Wayne back there. Yeah.

What he did wasn't right.
But me getting on him?

Yeah. That could've ruined me.

Yeah, but you kept it
all together. It's good.

Yeah, it's 'cause of you.

Thank you, brother.

Man, I can't tell you
how many times in my life

I've needed someone there to save me.

I'll tell ya. Yeah, yeah.
Well, it gave me clarity.

I don't want to have to tell my kids

dad's not coming home 'cause he made

another dumb mistake.

Yeah.

Yo. Yo, Manny, I didn't
mean anything by it

it-it wasn't a shot at you.

I know, man.

It's the truth.

Don't ever lose sight of that.

Yeah, hit it. Hit it.

I got that one. I got it. Good,
well, suddenly, I'm happy

you made a promise you shouldn't have.

Talk about a come-from-behind win.

Time's up, probies.

I'm pulling you.

Meet at Jack pine road base camp.

Bode, flare-up!

I see it!

Tree. Watch out!

Snag! Snag.

Bode, this is out of control.

Probies, repeat: Time's
up. I'm pulling you.

James? Leone? Do you copy?

Jack pine road.

Bode!

Bode, I'm pretty sure that's an order.

- If you want to go, go.
- Bode!

Come in, now. But I-I
know we can save it.

What happened to burying the old us?

This is me doing that. How?

By ignoring orders?
Putting yourself at risk?

Seems like all that talk

about our fresh start was just that. Talk.

I made a promise. You didn't.

You should go.

What, you think I'm gonna
leave you here alone?

Not happening.

Perez.

Is there something you
want to share with me?

'Cause the owner of
the smashed-out sedan

just ripped me a new one.

Did you tell him

he shouldn't park in front of a hydrant?

No, I couldn't even
get a word in edgewise,

'cause the guy barely
had any gas in his tank.

Couldn't even start his car.
Not because of a broken window,

but because someone
siphoned his gas tank.

That sucks. Bummer for him.

You did it, didn't you?

And I'd do it again. I know
what that kid is going through.

Yo, yo, hey. Gabs.

You committed a crime.

While wearing a 42 uniform.

You are lucky the owner
isn't pressing charges.

And look, I

I am truly sorry about how you grew up,

but that is in the past,
and it needs to stay there.

Easy for you to say.Enough.

You think you have problems?

Well, canceling a
wedding is not a problem.

Neither is sulking in an airstream.

But you know what is?

Listening to the love of your
life flat line over the radio.

And then losing your kid.

Yet here I stand, still doing the job.

You know what?

Everyone at the station
has an opinion about my life.

And I thought you were a safe space.

But you're one of them,

judging me, and I am sick of it.

And I am not gonna
stand here and listen to you

talk ugly about our personal lives

when we're supposed to be at work.

I am out.

Where are you going?

Crawford, do you copy?

Firefighter Perez!

Go for Crawford.

Bode, this is unwinnable!

There's no such thing.

We're not losing Brian's
house. We already did.

Take the loss.

Smell the milk.

If you don't, you're getting us both killed.

Firefighter 1591, Cooper ic.

Pull back to the Jack
pine staging area now.

Do you copy?

Copy, chief. We're headed out now.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

This way.

The fire hasn't made it to
the northwest corner yet.

It's on all sides. There's no way out.

No, no, no, no, no.
There-there has to be.

Bode! We're not going
down on our first call.

I refuse. Bode, look!

We should've left when chief
told us. We should've listened.

We did. We listened to
that guy, we tried to help him.

Yeah, well, trying to
save his second chance

might have cost us ours.

No, no, we got to find a way out.

Right there, right there. Quick.

Come on.

Get down!

The pool.

We got to get in the pool.

What? Come on.

We're gonna wait this out.

No. Bode!

Come on, we got to go.

Come on. Bode.

I can't swim.

Come on, come on.

Bode, I'll drown. I can't swim.

Not on my watch.

We'll stay close to the edge, okay?

It's the only chance we got.

Come on. You got to
take off all your gear.

Everything heavy.
Come on, it's got to go.

Now.

This fire's getting close.

Come on. We got to go.

Let's go.

Go.

We got to get out deeper.

We got to get towards the middle.

Come on.

I've got you.

I'll hold you up.

What if you can't? I can.

Listen, bode,

if we go under, you have
to let me go. All right?

I'm not killing you because I
never learned how to swim.

Promise me.

No. I'm not doing that
again. Bode, promise me.

On three. Ready?

One, two, three.

Come on. Go.

Breathe.

We're good, we're good. Okay.

Breathe.

Need all the horses
back in the barn, let's go!

Hurry up, let's move!
You left my home for fire,

now you risk it for fire.

I'm not aligned with fire, daddy, I fight it.

If that's true, then you're losing.

And it goes against
everything I believe in.

Look, this back burn is our
only hope of saving the ranch.

That's what everyone keeps telling me.

Yeah, 'cause it's true. Well, I hope so.

'Cause if not?

You burn my ranch, you
burn me for the last time.

We are done.

Hey. Chief.

Gabs walked out on the job.

In the middle of an incident?

She's going through
it. I know you know that.

Look, we had an
argument, and then she left

on foot off of route 7.

That road is completely burned over.

The whole area is a no-go.

Greencrest, get me a unit on route 7.

Firefighter Perez is trapped
out there and possibly lost.

The wind's picking up.

Yeah.

In the wrong direction.

42, let's get some water over here!

You got it, chief.

Go back, go back, go
back, go back, go back.

No, no, no, no, not the barn.

Daddy, I'm sorry.

You gambled my land.

My life. You're sorry?

No, it was, it was the-the
Ember from the wind change.

It wasn't-wasn't because
of the back burn. I...

Everything I've done is for my family.

And this is how you repay me?

With this fire?

Route 7 fire's spreading.

We still don't have eyes on Perez.

Hey.

What was that? Where's Perez?

I heard she took off.

What do you mean she took
off? Where-where did she go?

Somewhere by route 7.

Sorry. All I know.

Road's burning like crazy
back there. Bad all over.

Whoa, hold on.

Manny? Keep it together.

Can't do that, man. Not
with my daughter out there.

You okay? I mean, I'm
not dead yet, so yeah.

All right. All right.

This fire's getting a lot closer.

It's getting hotter,

so we're gonna have to go under.

No, I can't. Bode, I can't.Come on.

We have to. Just take a big breath.

Biggest one you can. All right?
