﻿1
00:00:06,690 --> 00:00:09,185
I'm working on a piece on the
West Pershing warehouse fire.

2
00:00:09,209 --> 00:00:11,688
I still can't believe you went
to high school with that guy.

3
00:00:11,712 --> 00:00:14,991
Was it coincidence
doing a story on my firehouse?

4
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:18,661
I'd be lying if I said I
wasn't hoping I'd run into you.

5
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:20,630
Hey, McCaffrey, Burke.
You're on traffic control.

6
00:00:20,654 --> 00:00:21,890
Go get the cones and flares.

7
00:00:21,914 --> 00:00:23,500
You go get 'em.
I'm gonna watch for traffic.

8
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:25,101
- Watch out!
- Lizzie!

9
00:00:25,125 --> 00:00:26,469
- No.
- Easy.

10
00:00:26,493 --> 00:00:29,297
You all are trying to prove
you're the star player,

11
00:00:29,321 --> 00:00:31,065
and that is the wrong instinct.

12
00:00:31,089 --> 00:00:33,134
I know there's a lot
riding on this for you.

13
00:00:33,158 --> 00:00:34,811
For me, too.

14
00:00:34,835 --> 00:00:36,312
I talked to Cruz.

15
00:00:36,336 --> 00:00:37,780
Neurological exam went well,

16
00:00:37,804 --> 00:00:40,149
but they're still waiting
on test results.

17
00:00:40,173 --> 00:00:42,185
Even if I get out of
this chair at some point,

18
00:00:42,209 --> 00:00:45,546
I'm never gonna be a firefighter again.

19
00:00:57,958 --> 00:00:59,969
Now I am ready to start the week.

20
00:00:59,993 --> 00:01:02,171
No, no, not yet.

21
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:07,026
No. We are gonna be late.

22
00:01:07,050 --> 00:01:09,012
Come on.

23
00:01:09,036 --> 00:01:10,446
Are we taking one car or two?

24
00:01:10,470 --> 00:01:12,322
- One.
- OK.

25
00:01:14,508 --> 00:01:16,019
Cruz texted me late last night,

26
00:01:16,043 --> 00:01:17,870
said he'll be at PT all this morning.

27
00:01:17,894 --> 00:01:20,189
That's good news, right?

28
00:01:20,213 --> 00:01:21,891
Well, he's still got
a long road ahead of him,

29
00:01:21,915 --> 00:01:24,961
but sounds like
he's not as grim as we thought.

30
00:01:24,985 --> 00:01:26,362
That's great.

31
00:01:26,386 --> 00:01:29,332
By the way, Chief Lowen reached out.

32
00:01:29,356 --> 00:01:32,235
- Is that Operations?
- Manpower.

33
00:01:32,259 --> 00:01:33,636
Said he wanted to come by the firehouse

34
00:01:33,660 --> 00:01:34,871
and check out the probies.

35
00:01:34,895 --> 00:01:36,306
How you feeling on that front?

36
00:01:36,330 --> 00:01:40,543
I am not sure they're
quite ready for prime time.

37
00:01:40,567 --> 00:01:43,680
But I got them all rowing in
the same direction at least.

38
00:01:43,704 --> 00:01:45,048
He lives across the hall from you.

39
00:01:45,072 --> 00:01:47,083
How have you not run into him
in four months?

40
00:01:47,107 --> 00:01:48,251
Constant vigilance.

41
00:01:48,275 --> 00:01:49,410
I missed a kickboxing class last night

42
00:01:49,434 --> 00:01:50,820
because he was camped out
at the elevator

43
00:01:50,844 --> 00:01:52,355
talking to our super
for, like, 20 minutes.

44
00:01:52,379 --> 00:01:54,248
- Ah.
- Maybe I should just move.

45
00:01:54,272 --> 00:01:55,992
Maybe just have an adult conversation.

46
00:01:56,016 --> 00:01:57,460
Oh.

47
00:01:57,484 --> 00:02:00,063
- Oh, hi.
- Hot off the presses.

48
00:02:00,087 --> 00:02:01,998
Oh, wow.

49
00:02:02,022 --> 00:02:04,592
You know you could've
just texted me a link, right?

50
00:02:04,616 --> 00:02:07,303
I know, but I'm a sucker for newsprint.

51
00:02:07,327 --> 00:02:08,638
Aw.

52
00:02:08,662 --> 00:02:11,441
Sorry. Um, Jacob, this
is my partner, Lizzie Novak.

53
00:02:11,465 --> 00:02:14,193
Hi. I'm a digital native,
but I appreciate a lost cause.

54
00:02:14,217 --> 00:02:16,879
Nice to meet you, Lizzie.

55
00:02:16,903 --> 00:02:18,448
Thanks for, uh, dropping this off.

56
00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:20,216
Actually, there was one other thing.

57
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,452
Um, "Metro" is asking for a story

58
00:02:22,476 --> 00:02:25,271
on the socioeconomic impact
of the record heat in Chicago

59
00:02:25,295 --> 00:02:27,179
- this past summer.
- Mm.

60
00:02:27,203 --> 00:02:29,283
Thought you might know if
certain neighborhoods saw more,

61
00:02:29,307 --> 00:02:31,619
you know,
heat-related calls than others.

62
00:02:31,643 --> 00:02:33,963
Oh, so you're just looking for a source

63
00:02:33,987 --> 00:02:35,948
for your next exposé...
no, I got it, OK.

64
00:02:35,972 --> 00:02:37,191
No, not just.

65
00:02:37,215 --> 00:02:39,202
It was a two birds, one stone
kind of thing.

66
00:02:39,226 --> 00:02:41,137
OK, well, you're only gonna
kill one bird here, pal.

67
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:42,672
The, um... the Public Information Office

68
00:02:42,696 --> 00:02:45,008
can get you all those official numbers.

69
00:02:45,032 --> 00:02:48,177
Can't write a decent story
with official numbers.

70
00:02:48,201 --> 00:02:50,962
You're gonna have to. See you around.

71
00:02:53,398 --> 00:02:55,818
He's kind of cute. And so into you.

72
00:02:55,842 --> 00:02:57,779
Oh, he's just looking for a source.

73
00:02:58,912 --> 00:03:01,090
Heads up, 81.

74
00:03:01,114 --> 00:03:03,760
We are gonna be running
some hardcore drills

75
00:03:03,784 --> 00:03:08,331
in full-out gear, so just
go easy on the pork products.

76
00:03:08,355 --> 00:03:10,466
She obviously doesn't know who I am.

77
00:03:10,490 --> 00:03:12,468
Hey, Hollis, gotta hit those macros.

78
00:03:14,194 --> 00:03:17,840
Puking in your mask.
That's one way to test the seal, right?

79
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,945
Well, my shower went ice-cold again.

80
00:03:22,969 --> 00:03:24,072
Happened to me last week,

81
00:03:24,096 --> 00:03:25,915
except I had conditioner in my hair.

82
00:03:25,939 --> 00:03:27,508
Hey, Captain, the water heater situation

83
00:03:27,532 --> 00:03:29,352
is creating a hostile work environment.

84
00:03:29,376 --> 00:03:31,087
Works fine if you don't
take 20-minute showers.

85
00:03:31,111 --> 00:03:32,321
What will it take to get us an upgrade?

86
00:03:32,345 --> 00:03:34,173
Helluva lot of money, Capp.

87
00:03:34,197 --> 00:03:35,658
Wait, didn't I hear that

88
00:03:35,682 --> 00:03:37,093
the CFD restored some of the
budget cuts from last year?

89
00:03:37,117 --> 00:03:38,461
Yeah, I heard that, too.

90
00:03:38,485 --> 00:03:41,689
Maybe there's a little money
squirreled away somewhere?

91
00:03:43,857 --> 00:03:44,867
I'll look into it.

92
00:03:44,891 --> 00:03:50,106
Ambulance 61, police assist,
person in distress, 3182 West Albion.

93
00:04:05,312 --> 00:04:06,601
She's inside.

94
00:04:06,625 --> 00:04:08,357
Locked herself in the bathroom
the second the cops showed up.

95
00:04:08,381 --> 00:04:10,126
- Any idea why?
- No clue.

96
00:04:10,150 --> 00:04:12,545
She came in and asked me
to call her a taxi.

97
00:04:12,569 --> 00:04:13,554
She was bleeding all over.

98
00:04:13,578 --> 00:04:15,231
Didn't seem all there, you know?

99
00:04:15,255 --> 00:04:16,999
- So I called 911 instead.
- OK.

100
00:04:19,926 --> 00:04:22,705
Come on, what are we doing in there?

101
00:04:22,729 --> 00:04:25,133
- Hello?
- What have we got?

102
00:04:25,157 --> 00:04:26,976
Possible psych.
Been in there half an hour.

103
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,212
Open the door, ma'am.

104
00:04:29,236 --> 00:04:30,847
I'm not going back there.

105
00:04:30,871 --> 00:04:32,981
Mind if we give it a shot?

106
00:04:33,540 --> 00:04:34,750
Last chance or we're coming in!

107
00:04:34,774 --> 00:04:35,885
Whoa, take it easy.

108
00:04:35,909 --> 00:04:37,286
If she's in crisis...

109
00:04:37,310 --> 00:04:38,754
You're not worried she's bleeding out?

110
00:04:38,778 --> 00:04:40,089
She's still talking.

111
00:04:40,113 --> 00:04:41,023
We're done talking.

112
00:04:41,047 --> 00:04:43,651
Hang on, OK? Excuse me.

113
00:04:44,918 --> 00:04:47,163
Hey, ma'am, we are paramedics.

114
00:04:47,187 --> 00:04:49,799
- We only want to...
- Just go away!

115
00:04:49,823 --> 00:04:51,659
You don't understand.

116
00:04:51,683 --> 00:04:54,929
I don't wanna go back there!
They won't let me leave!

117
00:04:54,953 --> 00:04:56,172
OK, that's it. We're going in.

118
00:04:56,196 --> 00:04:58,774
No. Can't you hear how terrified she is?

119
00:04:58,798 --> 00:04:59,976
Get out of the way.

120
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,545
That woman is in
acute psychological crisis, OK?

121
00:05:02,569 --> 00:05:05,940
If you bust that door in,
things could go sideways fast.

122
00:05:05,964 --> 00:05:07,811
I said move.

123
00:05:07,835 --> 00:05:09,378
No.

124
00:05:09,402 --> 00:05:11,253
Maybe let her try.

125
00:05:11,645 --> 00:05:13,547
We don't need IAB on us, right?

126
00:05:14,464 --> 00:05:16,125
OK.

127
00:05:16,149 --> 00:05:17,827
But we can't stay here all day.

128
00:05:17,851 --> 00:05:19,854
- And if she goes silent...
- Got it.

129
00:05:23,223 --> 00:05:24,534
Hey, ma'am, it's me again.

130
00:05:24,558 --> 00:05:26,869
We hear that you're
bleeding pretty badly.

131
00:05:26,893 --> 00:05:29,438
Is there any chance you'll
let us examine your wound?

132
00:05:29,462 --> 00:05:31,641
I'm not falling for your tricks.

133
00:05:31,665 --> 00:05:34,143
No tricks and no cops.

134
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:35,745
It's just us, I promise.

135
00:05:35,769 --> 00:05:38,039
Please, just let us help?

136
00:05:46,504 --> 00:05:47,990
OK.

137
00:05:50,083 --> 00:05:52,309
- Just you two.
- Mm-hmm.

138
00:05:52,333 --> 00:05:53,962
Not them.

139
00:05:54,458 --> 00:05:55,797
You got it.

140
00:06:04,598 --> 00:06:06,183
What's your name?

141
00:06:07,100 --> 00:06:08,402
Anita.

142
00:06:08,426 --> 00:06:09,946
Hi, Anita. I'm Violet.

143
00:06:09,970 --> 00:06:12,281
This is my partner, Lizzie.

144
00:06:12,305 --> 00:06:13,908
Would you mind taking a seat first

145
00:06:13,932 --> 00:06:15,942
so we can look at that arm?

146
00:06:16,776 --> 00:06:19,155
OK.

147
00:06:19,179 --> 00:06:22,174
Yeah. Right here.

148
00:06:22,198 --> 00:06:24,117
OK.

149
00:06:24,876 --> 00:06:26,187
There you go.

150
00:06:26,211 --> 00:06:28,664
Are you on any medication
that we should know about?

151
00:06:28,688 --> 00:06:31,926
Divalproex, 500 milligrams.

152
00:06:35,028 --> 00:06:36,522
How'd this happen?

153
00:06:36,546 --> 00:06:39,358
I-I don't know. A-a fence, maybe?

154
00:06:39,382 --> 00:06:41,444
OK.

155
00:06:41,468 --> 00:06:43,079
I'm gonna bandage this up,

156
00:06:43,103 --> 00:06:45,539
and Lizzie's gonna take your vitals, OK?

157
00:06:45,563 --> 00:06:47,842
Saline and gauze, please.

158
00:06:47,866 --> 00:06:50,011
Thank you.

159
00:06:50,035 --> 00:06:53,247
This is gonna sting a little bit, OK?

160
00:06:53,271 --> 00:06:54,649
One, two, three.

161
00:06:54,673 --> 00:06:57,351
I know. I know.

162
00:06:57,375 --> 00:07:00,872
I know. I know. That's it.

163
00:07:00,896 --> 00:07:02,989
160 over 102.

164
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,594
OK, that's high, but you've
gone through a lot today.

165
00:07:06,618 --> 00:07:10,131
And, Anita, I'm afraid
this is gonna need stitches,

166
00:07:10,155 --> 00:07:11,866
and we can't do that here,

167
00:07:11,890 --> 00:07:13,267
so we're gonna have to
take you to the hospital.

168
00:07:13,291 --> 00:07:15,236
No. No, no, no, no, no, no.

169
00:07:15,260 --> 00:07:17,338
Not Lakeshore. Not Lakeshore.

170
00:07:17,362 --> 00:07:20,108
Doesn't have to be Lakeshore.
We can take you to Chicago Med.

171
00:07:20,132 --> 00:07:22,610
I don't know. I don't know.

172
00:07:22,634 --> 00:07:23,878
I don't know.

173
00:07:23,902 --> 00:07:26,380
Is there anyone we can call?

174
00:07:26,404 --> 00:07:28,049
Any family to meet you there?

175
00:07:28,073 --> 00:07:31,776
No. I don't have anyone.

176
00:07:33,837 --> 00:07:36,824
Hey, Anita, listen to me.

177
00:07:36,848 --> 00:07:41,062
I promise you we are gonna
take good care of you, OK?

178
00:07:41,086 --> 00:07:43,572
Will you let me see your arm?

179
00:07:44,289 --> 00:07:46,834
N-n-n-no.

180
00:07:46,858 --> 00:07:49,070
All right. Uh, prep midazolam.

181
00:07:49,094 --> 00:07:50,972
Oh, wha... wait. Wha... what is that?

182
00:07:50,996 --> 00:07:52,874
It's just something to help you relax.

183
00:07:52,898 --> 00:07:56,093
But we will be with you
the whole time, OK?

184
00:07:56,117 --> 00:07:58,336
We are not going anywhere.

185
00:07:59,362 --> 00:08:01,139
- OK.
- Thanks.

186
00:08:02,941 --> 00:08:05,477
Just a little pinch.

187
00:08:07,112 --> 00:08:09,557
You want me to bandage you up?

188
00:08:20,317 --> 00:08:21,435
- Whoa.
- Hey, hey!

189
00:08:21,459 --> 00:08:22,970
- Wait a minute.
- Wait a second. Wait a second.

190
00:08:22,994 --> 00:08:24,238
We got a call while you were in there.

191
00:08:24,262 --> 00:08:25,531
- From who?
- Dispatch.

192
00:08:25,555 --> 00:08:27,366
We have to take her into custody.

193
00:08:27,390 --> 00:08:29,010
- We've got you, ma'am.
- What? No, she needs stitches.

194
00:08:29,034 --> 00:08:30,611
We are taking her to Med.

195
00:08:30,635 --> 00:08:31,779
It's a lawful order of commitment.

196
00:08:31,803 --> 00:08:33,247
She ran from a psych facility.

197
00:08:33,271 --> 00:08:35,483
Yeah, I'm sure the facility
will stitch her up, OK?

198
00:08:35,507 --> 00:08:36,475
Thanks for the assist.

199
00:08:36,499 --> 00:08:37,585
What facility are you taking...

200
00:08:37,609 --> 00:08:38,786
where are you taking her to?

201
00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:40,813
The call really did just come in.

202
00:08:40,837 --> 00:08:42,824
Let's move!

203
00:08:46,484 --> 00:08:48,596
What the hell just happened?

204
00:08:55,071 --> 00:09:01,923
Synced & corrected by -robtor-
www.addic7ed.com

205
00:09:02,070 --> 00:09:03,836
Well, it sounds like I have no choice,

206
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:08,883
so I guess I'll be there, but
just know it's under duress.

207
00:09:08,907 --> 00:09:11,811
Whoa. What was that all about?

208
00:09:11,835 --> 00:09:13,154
That was my publisher.

209
00:09:13,178 --> 00:09:15,189
Apparently somewhere in my contract,

210
00:09:15,213 --> 00:09:18,584
I agreed to do a reading of
my book as part of the launch.

211
00:09:18,608 --> 00:09:21,921
Just found out it's tomorrow night.

212
00:09:21,945 --> 00:09:24,682
Remind me,
what's the title you landed on?

213
00:09:24,706 --> 00:09:26,601
"Burning Desire."

214
00:09:26,625 --> 00:09:27,802
Sounds spicy.

215
00:09:27,826 --> 00:09:29,804
Oh, it's spicy, all right.

216
00:09:29,828 --> 00:09:31,372
Are you worried about the turnout?

217
00:09:31,396 --> 00:09:32,907
'Cause I can call Cindy.

218
00:09:32,931 --> 00:09:34,208
She can get her whole book club.

219
00:09:34,232 --> 00:09:36,944
For the love of God, do not do that.

220
00:09:36,968 --> 00:09:40,748
What? You don't want a crowd
for Cyrus Mayberry's big debut?

221
00:09:40,772 --> 00:09:43,384
Herrmann, the last thing I want to do

222
00:09:43,408 --> 00:09:47,588
is read erotica in front of strangers,

223
00:09:47,612 --> 00:09:50,182
let alone my best friend's wife.

224
00:09:50,206 --> 00:09:52,209
What am I gonna do here?

225
00:09:52,233 --> 00:09:55,363
I can't not show.
It's a breach of contract.

226
00:09:55,387 --> 00:09:57,823
They threatened to pull my advance.

227
00:09:57,847 --> 00:10:00,368
Oh. OK, so you have a legal problem,

228
00:10:00,392 --> 00:10:02,770
and I happen to have a guy for that.

229
00:10:02,794 --> 00:10:04,739
And he owes me a favor.

230
00:10:04,763 --> 00:10:07,098
Send me that contract.

231
00:10:09,034 --> 00:10:11,279
No, I... I get it.

232
00:10:11,303 --> 00:10:12,804
I understand.

233
00:10:14,005 --> 00:10:15,174
Yeah.

234
00:10:15,198 --> 00:10:17,017
Thank you for the information, Chief.

235
00:10:19,477 --> 00:10:21,522
They took her to a psych hospital.

236
00:10:21,546 --> 00:10:23,357
Valley Crest Mental Health Center.

237
00:10:23,381 --> 00:10:25,851
Those cops had no right taking her.

238
00:10:25,875 --> 00:10:27,762
We had priority on that scene

239
00:10:27,786 --> 00:10:29,030
and we were in the middle
of treating her.

240
00:10:29,054 --> 00:10:30,531
But Valley Crest, I mean,

241
00:10:30,555 --> 00:10:32,266
they already signed off
on the transfer of liability,

242
00:10:32,290 --> 00:10:35,770
so as far as Chief Robinson's
concerned, it's case closed.

243
00:10:35,794 --> 00:10:37,505
That patient was in visible distress.

244
00:10:37,529 --> 00:10:40,474
She was obviously scared of the
cops and she needed stitches.

245
00:10:40,498 --> 00:10:43,376
You don't think that facility's
capable of stitching her up?

246
00:10:46,171 --> 00:10:48,841
I promised that woman that we
would take her to Chicago Med.

247
00:10:48,865 --> 00:10:50,351
I promised her that we would get her

248
00:10:50,375 --> 00:10:52,861
the care that she needed...
she trusted me.

249
00:10:55,151 --> 00:10:57,061
Sounds like you need
to go see her yourself.

250
00:10:59,751 --> 00:11:01,152
Yeah.

251
00:11:05,248 --> 00:11:06,967
Captain Severide.

252
00:11:06,991 --> 00:11:10,029
Chief Lowen. Welcome to 51.

253
00:11:10,053 --> 00:11:12,573
Saw your lieutenant setting up
for a drill back there.

254
00:11:12,597 --> 00:11:14,342
Looks like she's really putting
'em through their paces.

255
00:11:14,366 --> 00:11:15,876
Yeah, she doesn't mess around.

256
00:11:15,900 --> 00:11:17,660
- Wanna go take a look?
- You bet.

257
00:11:19,404 --> 00:11:20,940
Good hustle.

258
00:11:20,964 --> 00:11:23,217
Good, good. McCaffrey, getting speed.

259
00:11:23,241 --> 00:11:25,486
- Come on, ten more. Ten more.
- Keep going. You got it.

260
00:11:25,510 --> 00:11:27,380
Come on! Show me speed! Show me speed!

261
00:11:27,404 --> 00:11:28,447
Nice.

262
00:11:28,471 --> 00:11:31,392
Good, good, good! Attaboy. Good job.

263
00:11:31,416 --> 00:11:33,144
All right, let's do some drags.

264
00:11:33,168 --> 00:11:35,329
Vasquez.

265
00:11:35,353 --> 00:11:36,764
Gentlemen, let's go.

266
00:11:36,788 --> 00:11:37,898
Looking good, Lieutenant.

267
00:11:37,922 --> 00:11:41,309
Thank you, Chief. They're coming along.

268
00:11:42,060 --> 00:11:43,561
Walk me out, Captain.

269
00:11:46,898 --> 00:11:48,509
I'm happy to see you and Lieutenant Kidd

270
00:11:48,533 --> 00:11:50,995
running such a tight ship here.

271
00:11:51,019 --> 00:11:53,814
Some of the chatter
I've heard around headquarters,

272
00:11:53,838 --> 00:11:56,484
well, I wasn't sure what to expect.

273
00:11:56,508 --> 00:11:57,835
Chatter?

274
00:11:57,859 --> 00:12:00,354
More like questions, I suppose.

275
00:12:00,378 --> 00:12:03,039
About the chain of command here at 51.

276
00:12:04,215 --> 00:12:05,192
You're talking about

277
00:12:05,216 --> 00:12:06,677
me and Lieutenant Kidd working together?

278
00:12:06,701 --> 00:12:08,154
Yeah, that's part of it.

279
00:12:08,178 --> 00:12:10,489
But just to be clear, she's
not working with you anymore.

280
00:12:10,513 --> 00:12:11,899
She's working for you.

281
00:12:11,923 --> 00:12:14,493
And that's a whole
different ball of wax.

282
00:12:14,517 --> 00:12:16,962
But look, I didn't come here
to rattle the cage.

283
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:19,807
This is just friendly advice.

284
00:12:19,831 --> 00:12:22,359
As far as I'm concerned,
there's nothing to worry about.

285
00:12:22,383 --> 00:12:24,045
You said it was part of it, me and Kidd.

286
00:12:24,069 --> 00:12:25,513
What's the other part?

287
00:12:25,537 --> 00:12:28,866
Running 51, it's a coveted position,

288
00:12:28,890 --> 00:12:31,777
especially for a guy who hasn't
even made battalion chief yet.

289
00:12:31,801 --> 00:12:33,587
So just tread lightly, that's all.

290
00:12:33,611 --> 00:12:35,347
You don't want to give anyone an opening

291
00:12:35,371 --> 00:12:37,258
to take a shot at you.

292
00:12:37,282 --> 00:12:38,526
But don't worry.

293
00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:40,686
You got plenty of friends down at HQ.

294
00:12:40,710 --> 00:12:42,245
Me included.

295
00:12:43,822 --> 00:12:46,225
- I'll be in touch, Captain.
- Chief.

296
00:12:49,018 --> 00:12:50,371
I understand your concerns.

297
00:12:50,395 --> 00:12:53,040
It's always difficult when
law enforcement gets involved.

298
00:12:53,064 --> 00:12:55,743
But don't worry.
Ms. Higgins is doing just fine.

299
00:12:55,767 --> 00:12:58,838
She was treated as soon
as she got here for, uh...

300
00:12:58,862 --> 00:13:02,416
we have 12 stitches for a
laceration on her left forearm.

301
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:03,901
Right, with all due respect,

302
00:13:03,925 --> 00:13:05,845
I would still like
to check on her myself.

303
00:13:05,869 --> 00:13:09,240
I got group therapy at 11:00, so...

304
00:13:09,264 --> 00:13:10,732
We'll be quick.

305
00:13:12,817 --> 00:13:15,236
Come on. It's this way.

306
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,224
We had to give her some
medication to settle her down,

307
00:13:18,248 --> 00:13:20,074
but, uh, as you can see,

308
00:13:21,059 --> 00:13:22,603
she's perfectly stable now.

309
00:13:22,627 --> 00:13:25,139
So I hope this puts your mind at ease.

310
00:13:25,163 --> 00:13:26,365
Now, if you'll excuse me.

311
00:13:26,389 --> 00:13:28,142
Daryl, could you show these ladies out?

312
00:13:28,166 --> 00:13:29,410
Wait, wait.

313
00:13:29,434 --> 00:13:30,778
Uh, when we were treating her, she said

314
00:13:30,802 --> 00:13:32,646
that she didn't want to come back here,

315
00:13:32,670 --> 00:13:35,349
that she was being
held against her will.

316
00:13:35,373 --> 00:13:37,017
Oh, well, patients say
all kinds of things

317
00:13:37,041 --> 00:13:38,285
in a mental health crisis.

318
00:13:38,309 --> 00:13:39,954
I... I know, but she wasn't psychotic.

319
00:13:39,978 --> 00:13:41,780
She was pretty lucid, actually,

320
00:13:41,804 --> 00:13:44,325
and she seemed genuinely scared.

321
00:13:44,349 --> 00:13:47,628
So I mean, if you don't mind,
I would like to speak to her.

322
00:13:47,652 --> 00:13:48,888
I do mind.

323
00:13:48,912 --> 00:13:50,789
I've done everything I can
to accommodate you.

324
00:13:50,813 --> 00:13:53,434
Look, Ms. Higgins admitted herself

325
00:13:53,458 --> 00:13:56,694
to this facility voluntarily.

326
00:13:57,395 --> 00:14:00,040
Now, if you'll excuse me,
we have to get back to work.

327
00:14:00,064 --> 00:14:02,101
I'm sure that you do, too.

328
00:14:07,463 --> 00:14:08,915
What now?

329
00:14:09,908 --> 00:14:11,886
I don't know.

330
00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:13,412
But the one thing I know for sure

331
00:14:13,436 --> 00:14:16,590
is that woman is not here voluntarily.

332
00:14:29,552 --> 00:14:32,105
See that chain-link fence?

333
00:14:32,922 --> 00:14:34,816
Wonder if that's how she cut herself.

334
00:14:35,625 --> 00:14:38,145
It could be. It's like 8 feet tall.

335
00:14:38,169 --> 00:14:39,572
Exactly.

336
00:14:39,596 --> 00:14:40,981
I mean, can you imagine how
desperate you'd have to be

337
00:14:41,005 --> 00:14:42,116
to scale that thing?

338
00:14:42,140 --> 00:14:43,533
I know.

339
00:14:44,033 --> 00:14:46,353
I wonder why she ended up here.

340
00:14:46,377 --> 00:14:48,913
I mean, people don't
get locked up for no reason.

341
00:14:49,781 --> 00:14:51,458
Right.

342
00:14:51,482 --> 00:14:54,186
But you know, something
is just... it's not adding up.

343
00:14:54,210 --> 00:14:57,164
I mean, we have had
plenty of psychotic patients.

344
00:14:57,188 --> 00:14:59,633
But this one feels different.

345
00:14:59,657 --> 00:15:01,175
Yeah.

346
00:15:01,818 --> 00:15:03,720
I just wish we had more to go off of.

347
00:15:04,821 --> 00:15:07,056
Yeah.

348
00:15:12,136 --> 00:15:13,706
She had a pretty intense reaction

349
00:15:13,730 --> 00:15:15,649
when we said we were
bringing her to the hospital.

350
00:15:15,673 --> 00:15:18,276
She did not want to go to Lakeshore.

351
00:15:18,843 --> 00:15:21,154
Maybe there's a reason why.

352
00:15:22,013 --> 00:15:23,948
Only one way to find out.

353
00:15:32,490 --> 00:15:33,968
So?

354
00:15:33,992 --> 00:15:35,002
Mm?

355
00:15:35,026 --> 00:15:36,570
What did Chief Lowen have to say?

356
00:15:36,594 --> 00:15:38,063
Not much.

357
00:15:38,087 --> 00:15:40,941
Just that he was impressed with
the job that you were doing.

358
00:15:40,965 --> 00:15:42,309
Well, then,

359
00:15:42,333 --> 00:15:45,779
maybe this is the perfect time
for an official request.

360
00:15:45,803 --> 00:15:47,806
I heard through the grapevine

361
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:50,376
that some of our discretionary budget

362
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,052
from the CFD has been restored.

363
00:15:52,076 --> 00:15:54,321
- Is that true?
- Mm, yeah, but it's not a lot.

364
00:15:54,345 --> 00:15:56,991
Is it enough for a Keiser sled?

365
00:15:57,015 --> 00:15:59,426
Look, I know we've been
getting by with truck tires,

366
00:15:59,450 --> 00:16:02,496
but the Keiser sled,
it's a hell of a lot safer.

367
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,766
It'll really help me hone in
on these probies' form.

368
00:16:05,790 --> 00:16:07,901
And good technique saves lives.

369
00:16:07,925 --> 00:16:10,203
OK, sure, I mean,

370
00:16:10,762 --> 00:16:12,246
I'll think about it.

371
00:16:17,035 --> 00:16:18,503
Hello?

372
00:16:22,540 --> 00:16:24,510
Hey. I've been looking for you.

373
00:16:24,534 --> 00:16:26,712
Uncle Larry got back to me.

374
00:16:26,736 --> 00:16:28,355
Please tell me he got me
out of this reading.

375
00:16:28,379 --> 00:16:29,823
All right, well, here's the deal.

376
00:16:29,847 --> 00:16:31,492
Your contract says that

377
00:16:31,516 --> 00:16:34,995
Cyrus Mayberry has to appear
at all scheduled events.

378
00:16:35,019 --> 00:16:36,196
That's the long and short of it.

379
00:16:36,220 --> 00:16:38,532
So you're telling me I'm screwed.

380
00:16:38,556 --> 00:16:40,025
What? No, not exactly.

381
00:16:40,049 --> 00:16:43,103
Uncle Larry pointed out
that nowhere in that contract

382
00:16:43,127 --> 00:16:48,199
does it say that you have
to be Cyrus Mayberry.

383
00:16:48,791 --> 00:16:51,211
- You can't be serious.
- You said it yourself.

384
00:16:51,235 --> 00:16:52,613
Up to this point,

385
00:16:52,637 --> 00:16:54,948
you have been nothing
but words on the internet

386
00:16:54,972 --> 00:16:59,620
with a nom plum
or however you say.

387
00:16:59,644 --> 00:17:01,647
- Nom de plume.
- Yeah. All right.

388
00:17:01,671 --> 00:17:05,159
The point is is that nobody has any idea

389
00:17:05,183 --> 00:17:07,728
what Cyrus Mayberry looks like.

390
00:17:07,752 --> 00:17:09,922
He could be me, he could be Tony,

391
00:17:09,946 --> 00:17:12,766
or he could be an actor that you hire

392
00:17:12,790 --> 00:17:14,650
so you don't have to do it.

393
00:17:16,728 --> 00:17:18,646
It worked for Cyrano.

394
00:17:19,155 --> 00:17:22,492
See? Tony agrees,
so it has to be a good idea.

395
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,240
Guys, I seriously doubt my
publisher's gonna go for this.

396
00:17:28,264 --> 00:17:31,659
He will when he sees
who I got to play you.

397
00:17:32,243 --> 00:17:33,654
Ah.

398
00:17:33,678 --> 00:17:36,790
That is Cindy's cousin's kid.

399
00:17:36,814 --> 00:17:40,294
And that guy is a real-deal actor.

400
00:17:40,318 --> 00:17:44,198
He's currently an understudy
in "Jersey Boys."

401
00:17:44,222 --> 00:17:45,858
- Which one?
- Does it matter?

402
00:17:45,882 --> 00:17:49,760
He's a professional and he's available.

403
00:17:51,129 --> 00:17:53,848
Do you think
he'd be willing to audition?

404
00:17:55,266 --> 00:17:56,810
I am buying you Kasama pastries.

405
00:17:56,834 --> 00:17:58,470
Get out of here.

406
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:02,282
Your cheat sheet got me through
ACLS, so we are square.

407
00:18:02,306 --> 00:18:04,609
You said Higgins?

408
00:18:05,777 --> 00:18:07,312
Oh, yeah, I remember her.

409
00:18:07,336 --> 00:18:09,623
She was here on the 23rd, so...

410
00:18:09,647 --> 00:18:11,692
- Two weeks ago.
- Yeah.

411
00:18:11,716 --> 00:18:13,360
She came in to get her meds re-upped.

412
00:18:13,384 --> 00:18:14,795
She was a little overwhelmed,

413
00:18:14,819 --> 00:18:16,397
but she wasn't
in crisis mode or anything.

414
00:18:16,421 --> 00:18:17,798
Wait, is...

415
00:18:17,822 --> 00:18:20,134
she came to the ER just
to refill her prescription?

416
00:18:20,158 --> 00:18:21,802
- Is that normal?
- Yeah, I know.

417
00:18:21,826 --> 00:18:22,970
It's messed up.

418
00:18:22,994 --> 00:18:25,130
There's a serious shortage
of psychiatrists.

419
00:18:25,154 --> 00:18:27,065
So it can take a while
to get an appointment.

420
00:18:27,089 --> 00:18:29,668
A lot of patients can't wait
that long, so they end up here.

421
00:18:29,692 --> 00:18:31,411
Were you able to take care of her?

422
00:18:31,435 --> 00:18:32,704
We didn't have a psychiatrist on call,

423
00:18:32,728 --> 00:18:35,015
so we referred her to a psych facility.

424
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:37,284
- Valley Crest?
- Parker.

425
00:18:37,308 --> 00:18:38,585
- I gotta go.
- OK.

426
00:18:38,609 --> 00:18:40,154
Thanks for the intel, Parker.
You're a good egg.

427
00:18:40,178 --> 00:18:42,514
- Good luck with your patient.
- Thank you.

428
00:18:42,538 --> 00:18:45,184
Anita was pretty clear about her meds.

429
00:18:45,208 --> 00:18:46,927
I don't think she stopped taking them.

430
00:18:46,951 --> 00:18:49,663
No. And she wasn't in crisis
when she got here,

431
00:18:49,687 --> 00:18:53,559
so why the hell is she still
locked up at Valley Crest

432
00:18:53,583 --> 00:18:55,269
two weeks later?

433
00:18:55,293 --> 00:18:59,473
Ambulance 61, Truck 81,
Squad 3 to West 83rd Street.

434
00:18:59,497 --> 00:19:01,975
Worker trapped
in a malfunctioning rig.

435
00:19:18,875 --> 00:19:21,553
Hold tight!

436
00:19:21,577 --> 00:19:23,956
- Easy, easy!
- Keep going!

437
00:19:26,816 --> 00:19:28,302
What happened?

438
00:19:28,326 --> 00:19:30,270
The wheel slipped through
and triggered the tilt sensor.

439
00:19:30,294 --> 00:19:32,397
We tried to get him down,
but it's not responding.

440
00:19:32,421 --> 00:19:33,574
All right, Squad.

441
00:19:33,598 --> 00:19:34,808
Let's get some cribbing
underneath this rig.

442
00:19:34,832 --> 00:19:35,801
- Copy.
- Raise the aerial.

443
00:19:35,825 --> 00:19:36,802
- I'm going up.
- Yep.

444
00:19:36,826 --> 00:19:37,970
- Herrmann, you got it?
- Got it.

445
00:19:37,994 --> 00:19:40,147
Ballard, Vasquez, set the stabilizer.

446
00:19:40,171 --> 00:19:42,182
Hey! Move back! Come on!

447
00:19:42,206 --> 00:19:45,043
Hollis, Jansen, set a perimeter.
Get these people back.

448
00:19:45,067 --> 00:19:47,421
I want at least 50 feet clearance.

449
00:19:47,445 --> 00:19:49,590
McCaffrey, help Ballard
set the stabilizers.

450
00:19:49,614 --> 00:19:50,824
Burke, go give Squad a hand.

451
00:19:50,848 --> 00:19:52,059
- On it.
- Got it, Lieutenant.

452
00:19:52,083 --> 00:19:54,328
- Let's move!
- Help!

453
00:19:54,352 --> 00:19:56,897
We're comin for ya! Hang on!

454
00:20:07,431 --> 00:20:09,610
Stack it tight. No gaps.

455
00:20:16,707 --> 00:20:19,486
- Stabilizers are set.
- Hurry!

456
00:20:24,382 --> 00:20:26,360
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Burke! Burke!

457
00:20:26,384 --> 00:20:28,420
Go!

458
00:20:42,655 --> 00:20:44,478
Hey, McCaffrey! With me, let's go!

459
00:20:44,502 --> 00:20:46,246
Copy.

460
00:20:46,270 --> 00:20:47,948
Guys, back up. Back up.

461
00:20:50,007 --> 00:20:52,344
Take one, back tire, cross-lay brace.

462
00:20:52,368 --> 00:20:53,720
- Got it.
- Put it right underneath him.

463
00:20:53,744 --> 00:20:55,280
All right.

464
00:21:13,247 --> 00:21:15,167
Hey. Hey, you with me?

465
00:21:15,191 --> 00:21:18,111
Hey, Herrmann! Bring that Sked up here!

466
00:21:18,135 --> 00:21:20,138
You got it!

467
00:21:35,711 --> 00:21:39,066
OK, ready? Three, two, one.

468
00:21:39,090 --> 00:21:41,601
Got manual C-spine.

469
00:21:41,625 --> 00:21:43,537
Sir, can you hear me?

470
00:21:43,561 --> 00:21:45,105
He's unresponsive.

471
00:21:45,129 --> 00:21:46,999
OK, pulse is brady.

472
00:21:47,023 --> 00:21:50,344
Respirations are shallow.
Pupils are sluggish.

473
00:21:50,368 --> 00:21:52,371
I see no obvious external injuries.

474
00:21:52,395 --> 00:21:53,981
Sounds like a brain injury.
Get ready to bag.

475
00:21:54,005 --> 00:21:56,508
Let's trauma him to Med. Let's go.

476
00:21:59,577 --> 00:22:02,105
Burke, what the hell were you doing

477
00:22:02,129 --> 00:22:03,682
on the downhill side of that rig?

478
00:22:03,706 --> 00:22:05,158
Oh, the... the wood was cracked,

479
00:22:05,182 --> 00:22:06,918
- so I was trying to stabilize...
- You would've gotten crushed

480
00:22:06,942 --> 00:22:08,612
if Vazquez hadn't have pulled you out.

481
00:22:08,636 --> 00:22:10,063
No, I had a clear escape path.

482
00:22:10,087 --> 00:22:11,999
Things can go sideways in a second.

483
00:22:12,023 --> 00:22:14,134
Listen, do you want to be a firefighter

484
00:22:14,158 --> 00:22:15,594
or a crash test dummy?

485
00:22:17,728 --> 00:22:20,322
My bad, Lieutenant. Won't happen again.

486
00:22:21,482 --> 00:22:25,369
Lesson for all of you:
stay out of the collapse zone.

487
00:22:26,762 --> 00:22:28,298
All right?

488
00:22:28,322 --> 00:22:30,040
Let's pack it up!

489
00:22:40,309 --> 00:22:42,219
Think he can help with Anita?

490
00:22:43,612 --> 00:22:45,799
Hey, worth a shot.

491
00:22:45,823 --> 00:22:48,835
Hi, Dr. Charles. Do you have a minute?

492
00:22:48,859 --> 00:22:49,836
What's up?

493
00:22:49,860 --> 00:22:51,104
It doesn't make sense, does it?

494
00:22:51,128 --> 00:22:53,473
Not if she was there
just to re-up her meds.

495
00:22:53,497 --> 00:22:56,802
Kind of hard for me to say
without having examined her.

496
00:22:56,826 --> 00:22:58,412
- But hypothetically?
- OK.

497
00:22:58,436 --> 00:23:00,280
Hypothetically,

498
00:23:00,304 --> 00:23:03,250
all right, divalproex
is a bipolar medication.

499
00:23:03,274 --> 00:23:05,410
If she was having a manic episode

500
00:23:05,434 --> 00:23:07,345
that required stabilization,

501
00:23:07,369 --> 00:23:09,723
I guess you could justify
a hold that long.

502
00:23:09,747 --> 00:23:11,758
But that scenario doesn't really

503
00:23:11,782 --> 00:23:13,860
line up with the other stuff
you've been telling me.

504
00:23:13,884 --> 00:23:16,003
OK, so why would they keep her there?

505
00:23:16,787 --> 00:23:18,865
Psychiatric evaluations

506
00:23:18,889 --> 00:23:20,867
are just notoriously ambiguous, right?

507
00:23:20,891 --> 00:23:23,970
They're just hardly ever
black-and-white, you know?

508
00:23:23,994 --> 00:23:25,172
And if the problem is all that gray,

509
00:23:25,196 --> 00:23:28,358
it creates a real vulnerability
in the system.

510
00:23:28,382 --> 00:23:30,302
- What do you mean?
- Well, put it this way.

511
00:23:30,326 --> 00:23:32,079
I have certainly heard of institutions

512
00:23:32,103 --> 00:23:35,856
that will hang on to patients
to increase revenue.

513
00:23:36,574 --> 00:23:38,702
Like a billing scam?

514
00:23:38,726 --> 00:23:39,786
Yep.

515
00:23:39,810 --> 00:23:41,021
So that doctor was lying

516
00:23:41,045 --> 00:23:42,814
when he said that Anita
was there voluntarily?

517
00:23:42,838 --> 00:23:45,325
You know, I mean,
once a patient's admitted,

518
00:23:45,349 --> 00:23:46,793
legally, the, uh...

519
00:23:46,817 --> 00:23:49,196
the discharge is at
the discretion of the facility.

520
00:23:49,220 --> 00:23:51,890
So, what, they could just
keep her there indefinitely?

521
00:23:51,914 --> 00:23:53,433
What they usually do is they...

522
00:23:53,457 --> 00:23:56,585
they keep 'em around
until the insurance runs out.

523
00:23:57,161 --> 00:23:58,505
What I would do, I would...

524
00:23:58,529 --> 00:24:00,532
I would take a look at the
Illinois Mental Health Code,

525
00:24:00,556 --> 00:24:02,809
you know, just to see if
there's anything that I've left out.

526
00:24:02,833 --> 00:24:04,511
I can also run this
by our head of legal,

527
00:24:04,535 --> 00:24:06,346
you know, see what he says.

528
00:24:06,370 --> 00:24:08,582
That would be great, yeah.

529
00:24:08,606 --> 00:24:10,183
Thank you so much, Dr. Charles.

530
00:24:10,207 --> 00:24:11,751
My pleasure. Good luck, you guys.

531
00:24:11,775 --> 00:24:13,110
Thank you.

532
00:24:18,449 --> 00:24:20,911
Y'all make me look bad
in front of my lieutenant?

533
00:24:20,935 --> 00:24:23,363
I think the words you're looking for are

534
00:24:23,387 --> 00:24:24,798
"thanks for saving my ass."

535
00:24:24,822 --> 00:24:27,200
I was good. I was
completely aware at all times.

536
00:24:27,224 --> 00:24:29,194
Well, next time,
you might not be so lucky.

537
00:24:29,218 --> 00:24:31,271
Yo, what's your issue, bro?

538
00:24:31,295 --> 00:24:32,873
You're afraid that I might show you up?

539
00:24:32,897 --> 00:24:34,474
Show you up.

540
00:24:34,498 --> 00:24:36,434
You know, if you quit
flapping your jaw for just...

541
00:24:36,458 --> 00:24:39,312
just one minute, you might
actually learn something.

542
00:24:39,336 --> 00:24:41,932
From you? Doubt it.

543
00:24:41,956 --> 00:24:43,508
Move.

544
00:24:50,072 --> 00:24:52,526
Get off me! Get off me!

545
00:24:52,550 --> 00:24:54,027
Hey!

546
00:24:54,051 --> 00:24:56,196
Stop!

547
00:24:56,220 --> 00:24:59,156
Now! Get off him!

548
00:25:00,391 --> 00:25:02,194
What the hell is going on?

549
00:25:06,430 --> 00:25:08,575
You are a probational
firefighter here, Burke.

550
00:25:08,599 --> 00:25:09,876
Do you know what that word means?

551
00:25:09,900 --> 00:25:12,704
- Yes.
- No, Lieutenant, it was my fault.

552
00:25:18,342 --> 00:25:20,086
Burke, get back on the floor.

553
00:25:27,977 --> 00:25:30,564
I do not even know what to say to you.

554
00:25:30,588 --> 00:25:31,923
I know, Lieutenant. I'm sorry.

555
00:25:31,947 --> 00:25:34,067
You were supposed to be an example.

556
00:25:34,091 --> 00:25:35,794
I just... I lost my cool.

557
00:25:35,818 --> 00:25:37,436
Vasquez...

558
00:25:38,295 --> 00:25:40,022
No, you know what?

559
00:25:40,364 --> 00:25:41,908
You're done.

560
00:25:41,932 --> 00:25:44,177
Your shift is over.
Get your stuff and go.

561
00:25:44,201 --> 00:25:45,904
You're done. Go home.

562
00:25:52,855 --> 00:25:56,423
- Did either of them get hurt?
- No. But I sent Vasquez home.

563
00:25:56,447 --> 00:25:57,624
And I know that

564
00:25:57,648 --> 00:25:59,059
I should have checked in
with you about it first.

565
00:25:59,083 --> 00:26:01,428
- Yeah, you should have.
- I know.

566
00:26:01,452 --> 00:26:04,956
But Vasquez started
a fight with a probie.

567
00:26:04,980 --> 00:26:07,516
And honestly, he's getting off easy.

568
00:26:11,462 --> 00:26:13,138
What?

569
00:26:13,664 --> 00:26:16,601
You want me to request
a floater for Truck now,

570
00:26:16,625 --> 00:26:19,312
file an incident report, loop in HQ,

571
00:26:19,336 --> 00:26:21,313
all because of some little scuffle?

572
00:26:23,140 --> 00:26:25,085
He...

573
00:26:25,109 --> 00:26:27,178
I'm sorry for the extra paperwork,

574
00:26:27,202 --> 00:26:28,688
but Vasquez was out of line.

575
00:26:28,712 --> 00:26:30,323
It's not about the paperwork, Stella.

576
00:26:30,347 --> 00:26:32,259
We got white shirts
breathing down our necks.

577
00:26:32,283 --> 00:26:34,219
I'm already a man behind on Squad.

578
00:26:34,243 --> 00:26:36,578
Now it's going to look like
things are out of control here.

579
00:26:37,187 --> 00:26:38,965
No one got hurt. Let's just move on.

580
00:26:40,658 --> 00:26:42,736
I mean, since when do you care
about how things look?

581
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,420
I can't...

582
00:26:46,330 --> 00:26:48,841
Just get Vasquez back on the floor.

583
00:26:49,933 --> 00:26:51,111
Seriously?

584
00:26:51,135 --> 00:26:53,405
OK, you are worried about

585
00:26:53,429 --> 00:26:56,708
how it's gonna look if we send him home.

586
00:26:56,732 --> 00:26:59,719
How is it gonna look
if you overrule me on this?

587
00:26:59,743 --> 00:27:01,988
It wasn't your call to make.

588
00:27:02,012 --> 00:27:04,316
He is my man.

589
00:27:04,340 --> 00:27:06,526
And if we don't set the
right example for my program...

590
00:27:06,550 --> 00:27:08,895
Damn it, Stella. I... I can't keep...

591
00:27:08,919 --> 00:27:10,904
I can't always say yes to you.

592
00:27:21,131 --> 00:27:22,876
Copy that, Captain.

593
00:27:31,967 --> 00:27:33,927
Get back in station gear.

594
00:27:34,770 --> 00:27:38,224
You're lucky that we got white
shirts sniffing around here.

595
00:27:54,798 --> 00:27:56,710
I feel like I'm going cross-eyed.

596
00:27:56,734 --> 00:27:59,646
I believe the medical term
is crashing out.

597
00:28:00,963 --> 00:28:02,349
Is there anything
in the insurance guidelines?

598
00:28:02,373 --> 00:28:03,516
Not really.

599
00:28:03,540 --> 00:28:06,319
And it all depends
on her coverage, so...

600
00:28:06,343 --> 00:28:08,079
OK, well,

601
00:28:08,103 --> 00:28:09,990
according to the mental health code,

602
00:28:10,014 --> 00:28:12,984
we can file a petition on her
behalf challenging the hold,

603
00:28:13,008 --> 00:28:14,886
but that could take weeks or even months

604
00:28:14,910 --> 00:28:16,396
to get in front of a judge.

605
00:28:16,420 --> 00:28:17,797
Unbelievable.

606
00:28:17,821 --> 00:28:19,733
It's like this one doctor
is her judge and jailer.

607
00:28:19,757 --> 00:28:21,292
Yeah. It's all perfectly legal.

608
00:28:23,652 --> 00:28:26,873
But maybe we can use it.

609
00:28:26,897 --> 00:28:30,335
Yes. Here's the manual.

610
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:31,711
OK.

611
00:28:31,735 --> 00:28:34,439
Gerard carried Louise to the bunk room.

612
00:28:34,463 --> 00:28:36,316
The heat between them was more intense

613
00:28:36,340 --> 00:28:38,852
than any fire he'd ever faced.

614
00:28:38,876 --> 00:28:42,614
He threw her onto the cot,
ripping off her dress.

615
00:28:42,638 --> 00:28:44,682
Gerard then reached for his helmet,

616
00:28:44,706 --> 00:28:46,126
but Louise stopped him...

617
00:28:46,150 --> 00:28:47,352
With a breathy whisper.

618
00:28:47,376 --> 00:28:49,462
"No, keep the helmet on."

619
00:28:49,486 --> 00:28:51,998
Sorry, can we, uh, take it back?

620
00:28:52,022 --> 00:28:53,767
Was I not doing the lower register?

621
00:28:53,791 --> 00:28:55,702
No, that was better this time.

622
00:28:55,726 --> 00:28:57,052
It's just...

623
00:28:58,262 --> 00:28:59,572
you have to say the words

624
00:28:59,596 --> 00:29:02,642
like you're trying
to pull the audience in.

625
00:29:02,666 --> 00:29:05,178
Take your time. Make them want it.

626
00:29:05,202 --> 00:29:08,564
That's the whole Cyrus Mayberry milieu.

627
00:29:09,631 --> 00:29:11,117
Thought I was doing that.

628
00:29:11,141 --> 00:29:13,119
Let's, uh... let's take it from the top.

629
00:29:13,143 --> 00:29:16,413
Mouch. Maybe six times is enough.

630
00:29:19,483 --> 00:29:21,027
You're right.

631
00:29:21,051 --> 00:29:23,229
Uh, really good stuff, Ethan.

632
00:29:23,253 --> 00:29:25,165
Thanks for coming in.

633
00:29:25,189 --> 00:29:26,566
We'll be in touch.

634
00:29:26,590 --> 00:29:29,702
Uh, say hi to your mom for me
and, uh, Cindy, all right?

635
00:29:29,726 --> 00:29:31,053
All right.

636
00:29:32,535 --> 00:29:33,938
Wow.

637
00:29:33,963 --> 00:29:35,782
Well, you certainly gave him
a lot of direction.

638
00:29:35,807 --> 00:29:38,077
Well, if he's gonna be
the face of my alter ego,

639
00:29:38,102 --> 00:29:39,546
it's gotta be right.

640
00:29:39,661 --> 00:29:41,448
So does that mean he gets the gig?

641
00:29:41,472 --> 00:29:44,250
Well, seeing as
the reading's in 24 hours

642
00:29:44,274 --> 00:29:48,555
and we don't have
a second option, I'd say, uh...

643
00:29:48,579 --> 00:29:50,156
meet Cyrus Mayberry.

644
00:29:50,180 --> 00:29:51,858
Hey, all right.

645
00:29:51,882 --> 00:29:53,893
I'll let him know.

646
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,367
Gerard carried Louise to the bunk room.

647
00:30:01,391 --> 00:30:03,761
The heat between them
was more intense than

648
00:30:03,785 --> 00:30:06,088
any fire he'd ever faced.

649
00:30:07,865 --> 00:30:09,333
Yo.

650
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:11,611
You had a fight with Vasquez?

651
00:30:11,635 --> 00:30:13,037
What the hell were you thinking, man?

652
00:30:13,061 --> 00:30:15,464
Dude had it out for me since day one.

653
00:30:16,206 --> 00:30:17,575
You got skills, Burke, all right?

654
00:30:17,599 --> 00:30:19,110
But if you don't stop messing around,

655
00:30:19,134 --> 00:30:21,511
you're gonna end up in the floater pool.

656
00:30:22,871 --> 00:30:25,191
You think this is
some kind of game for me?

657
00:30:25,215 --> 00:30:26,826
I had to bust my ass to get here.

658
00:30:26,850 --> 00:30:29,603
I know. We all did.

659
00:30:30,279 --> 00:30:31,956
Come on, dude.

660
00:30:31,980 --> 00:30:33,633
You know what?

661
00:30:33,657 --> 00:30:38,037
You're a third-generation CFD.
Your daddy's a damn senator.

662
00:30:39,563 --> 00:30:42,542
We're not even in the same ocean.

663
00:30:42,566 --> 00:30:44,569
State senator, actually.

664
00:30:44,593 --> 00:30:46,946
Oh.

665
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:48,622
That's a double-edged sword.

666
00:30:49,331 --> 00:30:50,984
I feel like I have to work twice as hard

667
00:30:51,008 --> 00:30:53,219
just to prove that
I actually deserve to be here.

668
00:30:53,243 --> 00:30:58,416
And I know you guys call me
nepo baby behind my back.

669
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,884
Hey, I call you that to your face.

670
00:31:04,179 --> 00:31:06,499
I'm not gonna end up in no floater pool,

671
00:31:06,523 --> 00:31:08,141
so don't worry about me.

672
00:31:09,259 --> 00:31:10,769
OK.

673
00:31:13,989 --> 00:31:15,440
Thank you.

674
00:31:16,934 --> 00:31:18,311
Hi.

675
00:31:18,335 --> 00:31:20,079
We are the paramedics from
that site call in West Ridge.

676
00:31:20,103 --> 00:31:21,314
Keegan was the senior officer,

677
00:31:21,338 --> 00:31:22,473
so if you need any follow-up...

678
00:31:22,497 --> 00:31:24,833
Actually, we're here to talk to you.

679
00:31:36,011 --> 00:31:38,031
Vasquez is back on the floor.

680
00:31:38,055 --> 00:31:39,432
Thank you.

681
00:31:39,456 --> 00:31:41,734
For the record,

682
00:31:41,758 --> 00:31:44,671
I don't expect you
to always say yes to me.

683
00:31:44,695 --> 00:31:46,888
I know.

684
00:31:48,031 --> 00:31:49,891
That came out wrong.

685
00:31:52,294 --> 00:31:53,713
But is that how you feel?

686
00:31:53,737 --> 00:31:55,564
Yeah, people are...

687
00:31:56,340 --> 00:31:58,810
talking down at HQ

688
00:31:58,834 --> 00:32:01,445
about whether or not
I should be commanding 51.

689
00:32:02,646 --> 00:32:05,032
Commanding 51 or commanding me?

690
00:32:08,852 --> 00:32:11,830
Is that what Chief Lowen said
this morning?

691
00:32:14,258 --> 00:32:17,002
He made it clear that
I was under a microscope.

692
00:32:18,228 --> 00:32:20,672
So I gotta be careful about optics.

693
00:32:22,866 --> 00:32:24,509
Optics.

694
00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:28,347
I get it.

695
00:32:28,930 --> 00:32:31,391
I should have let you know what was up.

696
00:32:32,175 --> 00:32:35,079
Yeah. You should have.

697
00:32:39,616 --> 00:32:41,276
Look, I know

698
00:32:42,344 --> 00:32:46,239
that everybody is pushing
for a water heater.

699
00:32:46,623 --> 00:32:48,968
I'm not gonna pretend

700
00:32:48,992 --> 00:32:51,703
like a Keiser sled
isn't a higher priority.

701
00:32:52,629 --> 00:32:54,273
I'm not asking you to.

702
00:32:54,297 --> 00:32:58,293
But it's your call.

703
00:32:59,102 --> 00:33:01,347
And I gotta get used to that.

704
00:33:01,371 --> 00:33:03,131
So...

705
00:33:04,441 --> 00:33:08,054
whatever you decide, I'll support you.

706
00:33:27,764 --> 00:33:29,449
We're here for Anita Higgins.

707
00:33:30,492 --> 00:33:33,938
W-wait, wait, Dr. Oxford,
can you come out here?

708
00:33:33,962 --> 00:33:35,306
What now?

709
00:33:35,330 --> 00:33:36,983
We are getting
Anita Higgins out of here.

710
00:33:37,007 --> 00:33:39,452
Like hell you are. You have no right.

711
00:33:39,476 --> 00:33:41,220
Actually, they do.

712
00:33:41,244 --> 00:33:44,490
Officer, unfortunately, these
ladies are wasting your time.

713
00:33:44,514 --> 00:33:46,726
Ms. Higgins is legally under my care...

714
00:33:46,750 --> 00:33:48,828
Actually, when Anita was under our care,

715
00:33:48,852 --> 00:33:50,496
she told a sworn officer

716
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,065
that she didn't want to come back here,

717
00:33:52,089 --> 00:33:54,801
which constitutes a
legal objection to confinement.

718
00:33:54,825 --> 00:33:55,993
That's ridiculous.

719
00:33:56,017 --> 00:33:58,638
Not according to Section 3-804

720
00:33:58,662 --> 00:34:00,807
of the Illinois Code of Mental Health.

721
00:34:00,831 --> 00:34:02,967
Once there's an official
dispute of confinement,

722
00:34:02,991 --> 00:34:05,636
the patient is legally entitled

723
00:34:05,660 --> 00:34:08,848
to an examination at a neutral facility.

724
00:34:08,872 --> 00:34:11,284
So we're taking her to Chicago Med.

725
00:34:11,308 --> 00:34:12,919
That's a... that's a technicality.

726
00:34:12,943 --> 00:34:14,954
I know. Sucks, right?

727
00:34:18,148 --> 00:34:19,708
Let 'em through.

728
00:34:23,286 --> 00:34:24,921
Anita?

729
00:34:27,357 --> 00:34:29,519
W-what's going on?

730
00:34:29,543 --> 00:34:31,303
We're getting you out of here.

731
00:34:47,310 --> 00:34:48,737
You...

732
00:34:50,413 --> 00:34:52,532
you came back for me?

733
00:34:53,074 --> 00:34:54,826
I made you a promise.

734
00:35:12,727 --> 00:35:14,471
You got a helluva right hook.

735
00:35:15,705 --> 00:35:17,098
I know.

736
00:35:17,541 --> 00:35:18,934
Listen.

737
00:35:24,931 --> 00:35:26,983
I appreciate what you did for me.

738
00:35:27,943 --> 00:35:29,611
I didn't do it for you.

739
00:35:30,612 --> 00:35:33,490
Should've never let myself
get baited by a probie.

740
00:35:33,790 --> 00:35:36,826
See, real firefighters,
we take responsibility.

741
00:35:38,295 --> 00:35:39,539
Oh, and, uh,

742
00:35:39,563 --> 00:35:42,508
I would never sabotage anyone
on a call, OK?

743
00:35:42,532 --> 00:35:44,125
Even if I didn't like you.

744
00:35:45,101 --> 00:35:47,713
Just so we're clear, I don't.

745
00:35:47,737 --> 00:35:49,282
Why? 'Cause I'm your competition?

746
00:35:49,306 --> 00:35:51,083
'Cause you're cocky.

747
00:35:51,107 --> 00:35:52,485
You're cocky and you're inexperienced,

748
00:35:52,509 --> 00:35:54,761
and that combination gets people killed.

749
00:35:59,391 --> 00:36:01,961
How could he just cancel?

750
00:36:01,985 --> 00:36:04,622
You said this guy was a professional.

751
00:36:04,646 --> 00:36:07,467
He got called up to play Frankie Valli.

752
00:36:07,491 --> 00:36:09,235
This is his big break.

753
00:36:09,259 --> 00:36:10,970
We have to start in two minutes.

754
00:36:10,994 --> 00:36:12,445
All right.

755
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,374
- You gotta get out there.
- Well, guess what?

756
00:36:15,398 --> 00:36:17,243
I can't.

757
00:36:17,267 --> 00:36:19,412
I saw you in the audition.

758
00:36:19,436 --> 00:36:21,747
You are more Cyrus Mayberry

759
00:36:21,771 --> 00:36:24,050
than that kid could've ever been.

760
00:36:24,074 --> 00:36:28,721
And you're really gonna let a
couple of bawdy words stop you?

761
00:36:28,745 --> 00:36:31,148
- What if they hate it?
- Listen.

762
00:36:31,172 --> 00:36:33,818
Mouch, this book

763
00:36:33,842 --> 00:36:37,663
is a bona fide bodice-ripper, all right?

764
00:36:37,687 --> 00:36:40,333
The staff out there is gonna be

765
00:36:40,357 --> 00:36:44,337
peeling people off the floor
after you get done with them.

766
00:36:44,361 --> 00:36:46,472
I'm serious.

767
00:36:49,466 --> 00:36:50,900
Thanks, brother.

768
00:37:01,870 --> 00:37:03,856
Hello, ladies.

769
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,527
I'm Cyrus Mayberry,
and I don't know about you,

770
00:37:07,551 --> 00:37:09,762
but I'm feeling a little

771
00:37:09,786 --> 00:37:11,697
burning desire.

772
00:37:11,721 --> 00:37:16,202
Ooh!

773
00:37:16,226 --> 00:37:20,031
Gerard was always good with his hands.

774
00:37:20,055 --> 00:37:22,942
Long before he started
at Firehouse 15...

775
00:37:22,966 --> 00:37:24,310
He's a natural.

776
00:37:24,334 --> 00:37:26,519
Maybe it's good that actor flaked.

777
00:37:27,871 --> 00:37:29,415
I never hired him.

778
00:37:29,439 --> 00:37:31,851
He moved on instinct.

779
00:37:31,875 --> 00:37:35,187
And he always trusted those instincts.

780
00:37:35,211 --> 00:37:36,514
It's infuriating.

781
00:37:36,538 --> 00:37:38,316
They're... they're taking
advantage of these people

782
00:37:38,340 --> 00:37:40,408
who are already so vulnerable.

783
00:37:41,518 --> 00:37:43,745
This one hit close to home, huh?

784
00:37:45,689 --> 00:37:47,391
I keep thinking about
how Anita said that

785
00:37:47,415 --> 00:37:49,000
she didn't have anyone.

786
00:37:49,993 --> 00:37:51,544
And...

787
00:37:53,263 --> 00:37:58,903
I can't help wondering
if that's how my mom felt.

788
00:38:01,705 --> 00:38:03,056
Yeah.

789
00:38:03,807 --> 00:38:05,392
I don't know.

790
00:38:05,827 --> 00:38:10,249
But what I do know is that
Anita wasn't alone today.

791
00:38:10,380 --> 00:38:12,491
We were there and we got her out.

792
00:38:12,515 --> 00:38:14,067
That's something.

793
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,278
Yeah.

794
00:38:18,254 --> 00:38:20,490
But how many rooms are in that place?

795
00:38:21,916 --> 00:38:24,035
Yeah. How many other Anitas, you mean?

796
00:38:29,958 --> 00:38:31,377
Hmm.

797
00:38:34,404 --> 00:38:36,840
Maybe being a source isn't so bad.

798
00:38:37,624 --> 00:38:39,018
- Hey.
- Hey.

799
00:38:39,042 --> 00:38:40,886
- Hi.
- Hey.

800
00:38:40,910 --> 00:38:43,138
So you said you wanted to talk?

801
00:38:43,947 --> 00:38:45,807
Your next exposé.

802
00:39:02,457 --> 00:39:04,367
Is that a Keiser sled?

803
00:39:05,101 --> 00:39:08,914
It is. I'm approving your request.

804
00:39:11,441 --> 00:39:12,810
Really?

805
00:39:12,834 --> 00:39:14,587
It was the right call to make.

806
00:39:19,149 --> 00:39:21,761
Is this gonna catch you heat
with the brass?

807
00:39:24,671 --> 00:39:26,890
If it does, I'll deal with it.

808
00:39:41,863 --> 00:39:45,492
Just don't ever stop fighting
for what you think is right.
