Our only witness to that fire,

he's in the wind.

There's no trace
of him anywhere.

That unit you opened?

It's part of a complicated,
ongoing investigation.

Maybe you guys haven't noticed,

but we have an ongoing
investigation here also.

What the hell are
those troopers up to?

Your guy, Severide?

He doesn't seem to understand
the situation like we do.

Bishop doesn't shy
away from violence,

and he does not
make empty threats.

Does Carver seem OK to you?

He's dragging a little.

Wouldn't it be nice
to work someplace

where you actually
feel appreciated?

Who told you to go
second-guessing my work?

Go home, Carver, and
don't plan on coming back

unless you get
yourself together.

Hi.

Fun night?

Mm-hmm.

You bailed just when
it was getting good.

We closed down the
lounge, and then Jolene

took me to Mike's Cop
Bar. Have you ever been?

It literally never closes.
- Huh.

Wait, you're leaving already?

Yeah, I got to be in early.
I told you that last night.

I'm sure Kidd is
still pissed at me

for dragging last shift, so...
- Kidd needs to chill.

Sorry, I...

I just... it sucks
to see you like this.

You're so stressed and
keep cutting out early,

missing all the fun.

I got to set things
right with my boss,

or I'm out of a job.

You can find another one.

You keep saying that,
but I'm a firefighter, T.

That's what I worked
my whole life for.

Wow, you're in a mood.

Look,

I just have to figure out how
to balance everything better.

It's not easy.

Hey. Any idea where
the strainer is?

It's underneath
the serving bowls.

Wow, remember when
you were the new kid,

asking all the wheres and whys?

Oh, barely.

Hey, can we talk,

like, paramedic to
PIC for a minute?

Sure. What's up?

So Mathis, my friend
at Milwaukee FD,

was telling me about this
"whole blood" program

they just started.
- Mm.

- Have you heard about it?
- Yeah, a little.

Basically, paramedics carry
around blood in their rigs

to do transfusions in the field.

Exactly. If we had
a program like that,

we could stop people from
bleeding out on the scene.

Bad idea?
- No.

No, it's an amazing idea,

and I love how fired
up you are about it.

It's just things like this are
kind of above our pay grade.

But, hey,

if you're serious about
this, then do the research.

Figure out what it would take,

see how other
departments did it,

and maybe we can
bring it to Robinson.

Mm-hmm.

Severide, this is Captain Vonn,

Internal Affairs.

So you've been
surveilling him for a year

and you still don't have
enough to bring him in?

Captain Bishop is very
good at covering his tracks

and tying up loose ends.

What about the
ghost guns you found

in that storage locker?

If he was watching the police,
and you were watching him...

I told you, you can trust him.

We know about the guns.

- Did any go missing?
- No, it was a clean bust.

But we do have intel that
Bishop was collecting

a protection fee from
the crew making them,

and they recently
stopped paying.

So he was out for revenge?

Did Bishop pull a warrant?

I'm not at liberty...

Captain Vonn, do you
want our help or not?

No, Bishop did not
have a warrant.

Why wait for a warrant

when you can set
the place on fire

and have the CFD come
pop the locks for you?

- Can you prove that?
- Not yet.

But we do have a witness,

a transient that
was almost killed.

And if Bishop was involved,

we can get him for
attempted murder.

If you think we can
nail Bishop for arson...

We'd have to go back to the
scene, get a closer look.

Agreed,

but don't loop in Van
Meter or anyone at OFI.

If Bishop thinks we backed off,
let's just keep it that way.

This stays between us.

Oh, when is the
lieutenant test, Mouch?

Less than a week,

and my blood pressure
is steadily rising.

You'll be fine.

You've been studying for months.

Yeah, mainly because
I've never been great

at taking tests.

All I hear is the
"Jeopardy" music

running on a constant loop,
worried I won't finish in time.

But I got some practice tests,

and the plan for
today is timed trials.

Well, let me know if
you need any help.

You don't have any
beta-blockers, do you?

My heart feels like it's
running a marathon without me.

You know what, never mind. I'll
just grab some more coffee.

That always calms me down.

Lieutenant?

I just want to say,

I know my words have been
pretty hollow lately,

but I am grateful to be
here and I plan to show it.

You'd better.

Truck 81. Ambo 61.
Multi-vehicle accident.

- Let's go.
- 630 South Archer.

This looks like a
minor fender bender.

Yeah.

Let's just make sure
no one got hurt.

Copy that.

Carver, get all these
people away from the ramp.

- On it.
- Lieutenant?

Cops just pulled
up next to the rig.

All right, I'll give
them the lowdown.

Safe off the perimeter.

See if the medics need any help.

You got it.

Lieutenant Stella Kidd.

Have we met?

Well, your reputation
precedes you.

I'm Captain Bishop.

You guys got here pretty quick.

Just right on our heels, huh?

We were in the area.

Oh.

Well, you don't need to shut
down the off ramp, so...

Well, that's a relief.

Diverting traffic's
such a... such a hassle.

As if we're the bad
guys here, you know?

I should get back to the scene.

Of course.

Thank your husband again for me.

He was a big help in
our investigation.

Has anyone been in
here since we left?

No, and I got a lot
of angry customers

who want to check
out their stuff, but

the insurance company has
to come and take photos first.

Police ever come back?

Nope.

What was in here?

We'll let you know
if we need anything.

What a mess.

There's the heater,

though it wasn't the cause.

This thing melted
from the outside in.

So the fire could have started

in any one of these units.

No accelerants found,

though there's plenty of fuel,

cardboard boxes, bedding,
locker full of paint.

That right there is
the missing evidence.

Bishop was pretty
determined to make sure

we never got a hold of
it, whatever it was.

Yeah, well, it's been
working for him so far.

No wonder he thinks
he's untouchable.

I've known guys like
him. I knew one in Miami.

It's not that they feel that
they're untouchable, exactly.

It's almost like they give
their lives to the job

and then feel that they're
owed something more.

You talking about
Chief Hendricks?

People like that do a lot of damage.
They hurt a lot of people.

It's Kidd.

Hey, what's up?

Bishop just arrived on my call.

What? What did he say?

Not much.

He wanted me to thank you

for helping out on
his investigation.

Do you think he
followed you there?

It's possible.

The wreck was right
off the freeway,

so it could have been legit.

I don't know.

- You OK?
- Totally.

I don't know, I just
wanted you to know.

But I'll see you back
at the firehouse.

OK, sounds good.

Guess who Kidd just met?

Hey, as someone who almost
took this test last year,

you want my advice?

I'm not sure almost taking it
makes you a certified expert,

but sure.

I'm open to anything
at this point.

OK, OK. Anyway...

So, you know Murph?

She teaches continuing
ed at the academy.

Yeah, sure.

So normally, she
charges $50 for this,

but I'm going to give
it to you for free.

Did Murph sell you the answers?

What? No.

She teaches an hour-long
course to help you prepare,

but that has nothing
to do with all of this.

Doesn't Murph also sell
Herbaworld on the side?

Do you want me to
share this with you or not?

An hour, huh?

You give me 10 minutes.

If you hate it, we'll stop.

Come on, what do
you got to lose?

Yeah, great.

Sorry, sorry, I
know it's bad form

to let your PIC pack
up, but the Fly Boy guy

gave me some serious intel on
the whole blood program thing.

You know they've had it in
EMS helicopters for years?

I'm not surprised.

They get all the
good stuff first.

Well, he thinks
it's criminal that

we don't have it
on ambulances yet.

So he's going to send me
an email with information,

data they've collected,
all the training

they had to go through
so I can put in

my proposal for Robinson.

OK, you're really doing this.

Oh, I am totally doing this.

OK.

Looks like the fire
jumped a few units,

spreading out in a V.

You get any hits on
a point of origin?

No, the whole
thing's soot-stained.

One thing I noticed, though.

Char pattern here. Does
that make sense to you?

Well, whatever it is,
it's not a clean burn.

I don't see any
vents on this side.

That's how it jumped.

Embers came through.

Weren't the guns
right next door?

Yeah, but that unit
just got heat damage.

This is just plywood.

All the other walls
are corrugated metal.

This thing would
have got eaten alive.

Heads up.

Bishop needed those
guns to make his bust.

He couldn't have them burn.

And he covered the
vent with plywood?

Well, he must have had
it treated with something

to resist the flames.

That looks like
it could have been

a five-gallon canister of
fire suppressant to me,

don't you think?

Bishop screwed up, left it here,

had to come back for it.

He doesn't seem like the
type of guy to overlook that.

Could have panicked.

Fire makes people
do strange things.

Or he had someone
else do it for him.

The guy you rescued
doesn't really live here.

He was working for Bishop.

Now you're saying Bishop
didn't commit arson?

Well, he's behind it.

He just had somebody
else light the match.

We have to prove it was him,

or this is all just
a big waste of time.

So bring in the guy we
pulled out of the fire.

Maybe he'll talk.

You bring the
photographs we requested?

These are from our
surveillance on Bishop.

All known acquaintances.

I'll remember his face.

My boss wants me to move on.

Says arson is pretty
much impossible to prove.

Not for him.

If this transient was a suspect,

why didn't you hand
him over to police?

Well, he presented as a victim

and fled from the hospital.

We had no reason to believe
that he had anything...

Here he is.

This is Ryan.

- That's not his name.
- It's the name he gave us.

He's one of Bishop's criminal
informants, Devin Staples.

He's a snitch?

That makes sense.

Bishop already has
him under his thumb.

Well, he shouldn't
be too hard to find.

We have all his information.

I want to talk to him.

Good. Arson's not my specialty.

And we need to convince him

he's going back to jail if
we're going to get him to talk.

I'll be in touch.

Great. Now, give
me three more.

Two.

One.

Great, OK, now 50 jumping jacks
straight into it, all right?

No rest.
- I'm sorry, Joe,

but when does the
actual lesson begin?

This is the lesson, Mouch.

No, this is cardio.

And our job is physically
and mentally demanding.

Well, guess what?

The mind, the body,
they're interconnected.

Are you about to try and
sell me some Herbaworld?

No, Mouch.

The point is, exercising one
strengthens the other.

Well, it's a little
late for all that.

The test is in a few days.

But you feel better, right?

You're not as stressed now that
the endorphins are kicking in.

All I feel is a
possible shattered disc

and sweat in places that
requires another shower.

Mouch, please, come on.

Just give me ten more minutes.
I promise this will help.

That's ten more minutes of
valuable study time wasted.

So putting someone's
name in your phone

is a relationship milestone now?

Oh, yeah.

Dwayne was still
"Hot Cop" in mine

till about a month ago.

Yeah.

Hey, y'all.

- Hey.
- I brought you guys lunch.

Oh, wow.

Soul and Smoke? No way.

My manager says it's the best
Texas-style brisket in Chicago.

Thanks, Tori.

I call dibs on the burnt ends.

Uh, didn't know
you were coming by.

I wanted to surprise you.

Figured you could
always use more food.

I know how hard y'all bust
your asses around here...

- Mm.
- Especially this one.

Mm-hmm.

By the way, I just wanted to say

I'm sorry for dragging
him out of Molly's

on Violet's birthday... we
were just having a thing.

- Tori.
- It's fine now, though.

You just had to
work some stuff out.

Well, thank you for the food.

You know, I feel like
we're just kind of

one of those couples, you know?

Nothing's lukewarm with us.

We're either
fighting, or we're...

Yeah, I think she
gets the picture, T.

Well, I just sort of
get that same vibe

from you and
Severide, am I right?

Not exactly.

Uh, those guys, you, uh...

feed them once, made
a friend for life.

Wow.

Here, let me walk you out.

See you, Tori. Thank
you again for the food.

Yeah, no problem.

So good.

Oh, what's that?

You do know that the
whole point of this

was to have lunch
with you, right?

You should have asked me first.

OK, what is going on with you?

With me? What was
that back there?

Kidd isn't your...
your girlfriend.

She's my commanding officer.

Well, maybe you need to stop
putting her on such a pedestal

and just let her
get to know me...

This is...

When I am at work,

I have to be focused on work.

I appreciate what you did,

but I just can't afford to
be distracted right now, OK?

I'm sorry.

It's just funny, 'cause

y'all were shooting the
breeze when I walked in.

Is that the important work
you really need to focus on?

It's hard to explain to someone
who's not a firefighter.

Yeah, don't bother.

Hey, I'm heading out.

We just got word they
brought in Bishop's CI.

Great.

Let's hope he knows where
the bodies are buried.

You good?

Yeah, I'll feel better
once Bishop's charged.

Is Pascal going with you?

Yeah, we're taking
the lead in the room.

You two, you've been attached
at the hip the last few days.

Just trying to break the case.

And he's really had my
back through all this.

Good luck.

I'll call you later.

Aww. Thanks, boss.

How's it going?
Making any progress?

You know how much goes into
setting up these programs?

Each ambo has to be
equipped with cold storage,

fluid warmers,
disposable circuits.

It's like 6,000
bucks per ambulance,

and that's not even factoring
in the cost of training

or the actual blood product.

Well, if other departments
are using it already,

why not us, right?

Yeah, but did any of them

start with just one little
ponytailed girl and a dream?

Hey, one ponytailed,
nunchuck-whipping,

whiskey-swilling girl.

No, which is probably why they
haven't made it happen yet.

Yeah. Slackers.

What?

Flynn's great uncle
just passed away,

and he invited me to go
to the funeral with him

right after shift tomorrow.

Funeral date. Wow,
that's a big move.

Right?

He is really laying all his
cards out on the table, huh?

He comes here to tell you
how much he likes you,

and now he's inviting you to
an intimate family gathering?

I know.

Meanwhile, I haven't laid
any of my cards down.

Yeah.

What's the deal with that?
He seems like such a great guy.

I don't know. I just...

I don't even know where
to begin with my cards.

Hey, uh, mark me for a
three on the last hole,

and, oh, by the way, I
watched my boyfriend die

right in front of me.

Yeah, I see your point.

I'm sure you'll
find your moment.

Where'd you get the
fire suppressant?

There's only a few places
that sell canisters that size.

Shouldn't be too hard to
track down a recent purchase.

You didn't use a
credit card, did you?

Man, I don't know
anything about that.

I was just sleeping
there. I told you.

Right, but you did say

a space heater may
have caused the fire.

Yeah, and it was on.

And, I don't know,
maybe it fell over.

Fire leaves clues, Devin.

It's also unpredictable.

You were able to keep
it off those guns,

but how could you
know another locker

had all that paint in it?

Must have blown up like a bomb.

Then you got scared and ran,
got lost in all the smoke.

I didn't do it.

You were the only
one in the building.

It couldn't have
been anyone else.

You think Bishop's OK
with you screwing up,

leaving evidence behind?

You think he's not going
to come after you for that?

Look. Look at me.

We know this wasn't
your idea, OK?

Just tell us what
Bishop made you do.

Do you have anything
to hold me here?

These men saved your life.

Least you can do is
answer their questions.

But I'm not under arrest.

So I can go, right?

Yeah, you can leave
whenever you want.

You think he runs
right to Bishop?

Tells him we're
still investigating?

Not a chance.
You saw his face.

He knows he screwed up,
and Bishop might kill him.

And now we are out
our only witness.

- There you are.
- What's up?

I'm working on my
proposal for Robinson,

and I was hoping I could
send it to you later

once I'm done-done to get
your PIC perspective on it.

- Yeah, whenever you're ready.
- But don't go easy on me.

I want brutal honesty.

Sadly, I don't know
any other kind.

OK.

Whoa, hot mama.

- Really? OK.
- Oh, hell yeah.

You're going to slay
at that funeral.

I'm serious. You look
drop dead gorgeous.

OK, all right, I gotta
go. I'm already late.

Knock 'em dead, girl!

So apparently, I've been
sleeping on Texas barbecue.

That was insane.

It's that smoky flavor.
Gotta cook it low and slow.

Nice way to bring your
home vibes to Chicago.

Like you never left Austin.

Yeah, guess that's true.

Uh, I can teach you how
to smoke it yourself

if you trade bunks with me.

And be next to Capp, the
loudest sleeper at 51?

The sounds he makes
are not human.

I know.

What is that sound?

I better be able to see my
reflection in those blades!

Thank you. Love a mimosa.

I wouldn't get your hopes up.

It's probably Asti Spumante and Tang.

I'm no snob.

Mm.

Is that lady wearing
an ankle bracelet?

Oh, yeah, that's...
that's Aunt Renatta.

She just did a stint in Cook
County for her third DUI.

This is a motley crew
you're consorting with.

Mm, well, it was a nice service.

Which is ironic,
because Uncle Bing

wasn't the nicest of folk.

Probably died with
a scowl on his face.

Speaking of dying, my
last boyfriend died

right in front of me on a call.

Oh, my God, I'm...

I'm so sorry, I...

It... it's OK. It
was a while ago now.

I just... I wanted to tell you.

I just didn't know how to.

But I think I nailed it.

I'm glad you told me.
That's... that's a big deal.

And I totally understand

if you want to keep things
casual or take it slow.

I mean, that's how I like
to roll anyway, so...

Really?

You think inviting
me to a funeral

is keeping things casual?

Yeah, no, but it can,

starting now, if
that's what you want.

When you're ready to head out,

do you maybe want to
come back to my place?

Let's go.

- OK. OK.
- OK. Yeah.

Oh, good. It's almost ready.

Trying something new.

Carbonara with Greek yogurt.

I know... won't be as
good as your lemon pasta,

and if it's terrible,
we can order in.

- When did you get home?
- I don't know, an hour ago?

Oh, someone dropped
that off for you.

I'm not going anywhere
until you tell me

what the hell is going on.

I just need you to stay at
your sister's for a few days.

Why? What was in
that envelope?

This is Miami all over again.

Well, who'd you
piss off this time?

I'm only trying to protect you.

I'm not the bad guy here.

Oh, you never are.

He came to my home.

You're sure it was Bishop?

He stopped by a call,
and he spoke to my wife.

He's trying to intimidate
us, let us know

he can get to the
people we love.

As you said before,

he doesn't shy
away from violence.

We put a
tail on his CI.

If Bishop goes after
him, like you said...

And use him as bait?

Let's just use what
we've already got,

all that intel on kickbacks,
ghost guns, imported cigars.

Go get papers on this
guy and bring him in...

right now, today.

It won't do any good.

Come on, you got to
have something concrete.

Like I said, he's smart.

Covers his tracks so we
can't get access to him...

burner phones, cash, all of it.

And you saw his CI.

Nobody's going to talk.
They're all too scared.

Bishop should be scared of us.

We just need to keep
building the case.

And how long will that take?

Until we can make
something stick.

- Have a nice day.
- Thank you.

- There you are.
- Did I miss curfew?

No.

I just wanted to see you
before I went on shift.

If you wanted to
spend time with me,

you could have come
out last night.

I invited you, remember?

Even after you booted
me out of the firehouse.

I know. I'm sorry.

Thing is...

I've been leaning
on you too much.

I like it when you lean on me.

You picked me up when I was
crashing hard back home.

We picked each other up.

That's what we do.

That's what we used
to do, for sure.

I probably wouldn't have made it
through high school without you.

Same.

Sam,

you and me, this is right.

I know you can feel it too.

I do.

It feels right because
it feels like home.

But maybe that's not such
a good thing, you know?

Home was a dark,

messed up place for both of us.

The only messed up
thing here is that

the firehouse is the
center of your life,

and you keep trying
to leave me out of it.

Don't go into work today.

Be with me.

I can't.

How did I know you
were going to say that?

I'll be back right after shift.

OK.

- You read it?
- That's solid.

- Solid?
- Mm-hmm.

That doesn't sound good.

No, when I say
solid, I mean solid.

Like, amazing.

That's not what solid means.

Just take the
compliment. It's great.

And I don't know how
you did it in two days.

Oh, you know, just by
spending every second on it.

You know, it's obvious this
really means a lot to you.

It comes through on the page.

So now all we got to do
is get this at the top

of Chief Robinson's to-do list.

You got any ideas?

Well, it's got to be
something splashy,

something she can't ignore.

Say, I've got a couple ideas.

Hey, Mouch.

Guess what I just found
out about your test?

Well, let me stop
you right there.

No more advice.

I am sticking with the
old-school study methods...

cramming, and a crippling
fear of failure.

No, it's not that.

Fun fact...

since they changed the
retirement age last year,

you are about to be the
oldest person in the CFD

to take the lieutenants' test.

- Really?
- Yeah. Isn't that cool?

It's like you're
breaking new ground.

Wow, a trailblazer.

Hey, have you seen
the chief around?

I got reports for him.

No, he's probably somewhere
doing the same thing I am,

looking for anything
to take down Bishop.

What are these?

Well, the CFD calls with
Bishop's name attached.

No surprise, another unsolved
arson with his name on it.

Truck 81.

Squad 3. Ambo 61.

Garage fire. 5377
West Concord.

My car, it's on fire.

Truck, grab your extinguishers.

Engine, stretch a line.

Can't you just
soak it from here?

How many guys do
you need going in?

Why does he have an ax?
- You just stay out of the way.

- Hey, this is my house.
- Get back!

Let's move.

- Ready?
- Good.

All right, 51, clear out!

Engine, soak it down.

Copy that.

Fall back. We're good.

All right, get out.
You're done.

Now I've got fire
and water damage.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa. Hey, hey, hey.

Take it easy, buddy.
It's not safe back there.

Hey.

Hey, uh, Lieutenant
Severide, we need to talk.

Hey, don't touch that!
That's police business!

Whoa, whoa. Oh, hey!

Squad 3 to Main.

We need a 10-1 to this location.

Copy, Squad 3. Units en route.

How did you know it wasn't
his own personal collection?

It was at least 50 grand
worth of Cubans in there.

Now, with probable cause,
they can search the house.

Wonder what else he's
got stashed away?

This can't be a
coincidence, right?

How do you mean?

Same MO as the storage facility.

Set it on fire, have
us pop the locks.

You think his CI did it

to keep Bishop from
coming after him?

Could see that.

I'll give Vonn a call,

see if she can't
bring in the CI again.

Don't get your hopes up.

If it was the CI, he's
probably in the wind.

This might be for the best.

You sticking around?

I figured chief would
need an extra hand

with all the
paperwork coming in.

Well, I'm going to go
home, get some sleep,

a lot better than I would have

knowing Bishop's
off the streets.

Really great work.

Thank you.

Don't stay too
late, it's just...

you know your partner Pascal
can handle the paperwork solo.

Just so you know.

Hey, T?

Hey.

I thought you would
be home studying.

Do I really want to be the
oldest lieutenant in the CFD?

Oh, come on, Mouch.

Is that what I'm
adding to my legacy

after 40 years on the job?

Now I'm half couch, half geezer?

I thought we moved
past all of this.

You do know they
place you according to

how you score on the test,
which means I would have to

ace the damn thing in
order to have any shot

at getting my number
called before I retire.

And even if I do,

who wants a 60-year-old
rookie lieutenant

leading them into battle?
I know I wouldn't.

- Hey.
- You know what's funny?

I gave Herrmann hell
for having doubts,

but when it comes to myself...

Maybe some people are
destined to make rank,

and some people aren't.

I know you don't want my advice,

but you're wrong on this.

You're going to make
a great lieutenant

because of what you just said...

40 years on the job,

a lifetime of experience.

And you're going to ace that
test for the same reason.

You got the answers
right here and here.

Nice work, Novak.

Dropping some science
on those white shirts.

Yeah, well, it was Violet's idea

to get the medevac
guy to hand deliver

the proposal to Chief
Robinson in his flight suit.

- Mm-hmm.
- Hot. So what happens now?

Robinson already agreed to
let Novak make a presentation

to the CFD Logistics and
Support leadership team.

Yeah, well, I don't know
how I'm going to stand

in front of all those people
and not lose my lunch.

Don't picture them
in their underwear.

I tried that in court once.
Started a hell of a spiral.

Good to know.

Big move,
inviting him to Molly's.

I'm Darren.

So you're Ritter. I've
heard a lot about you.

Really? That's weird.

I haven't heard anything about
you, at all, every shift.

I mean, that's Ritter.

No, it's great to meet you.

Did they get that safe open
in Bishop's closet yet?

Half a million dollars in
cash and a Rolex collection.

Good luck explaining
that, right?

You look like you
could use a break.

You smoke cigars?

I lived in Miami for ten years.

What do you think?

Well, they're not Cubans,

but I have a few stashed in my
locker that aren't half bad.

So I just talked to
Vonn about Bishop's CI.

They bringing him in?

No.

They had that tail on him.

Turns out he didn't go
anywhere near Bishop's house.

Huh.

No, I keep thinking...

what are the odds of an
engine fire in Bishop's car

exactly when and where
we needed it to happen?

Pretty low.

All that matters is,
he won't be messing

with our families again.
