Station 19 (2018–…): Season 6, Episode 2 - Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey - full transcript
Travis discusses his position in the mayoral race as he is determined to kick Dixon out, and Maya admits to blackmail. Meanwhile, the team is called to a fire at a run-down apartment complex that reveals an unsettling cause.
Ohh! Baby, I'm sorry!
You okay?
Didn't I see you running into
work when I was driving in?
Yeah, that was my
warm-up.
Bishop.
That Crisis One paperwork
isn't gonna file itself.
Yeah, Hughes usually does
the paperwork for Crisis One.
I believe the words you're
looking for are, "Yes, Captain."
Yes, Captain.
He's even more
charming than usual.
Travis Montgomery can
grandstand all he wants,
but the truth is, the people
want somebody with experience.
I've been working at
city hall in one capacity
or another for 15 years.
Montgomery's been a non -ranking
firefighter for less than 10.
Dixon is so salty that
you're getting famous!
I'm not getting famous.
Like, five people have shared
that video from the tornado.
You are Seattle famous.
Embrace it, buddy. It's
gonna help you win.
I don't want to win. I
just want Dixon to lose.
Seriously, though,
you could win.
Look, they are calling
you "Mayor Trav."
Oh, okay.
So I'm not even Seattle Famous,
I'm Seattle Gay -Famous.
Yeah. I'm Gaymous.
Yeah, you are.
Jack, I'm gonna
fill up your voicemail
until you call me back.
Has anyone heard from Gibson?
Look at Mayor
Trav. Look at him.
Ooh! Jaunty.
You know this means you
need a boyfriend, right?
Theo, not in front of Vic.
Wha... Ah, buh, buh. Wait,
wait, wait, he's right.
As your campaign manager...
You're not my campaign manager.
As your campaign manager,
I would be irresponsible
not to tell you that
candidates poll 4% higher
when they're in a
committed relationship.
Even more when they're married.
I'm pretty sure that
doesn't include gay men.
Ah, gay firefighter.
Big difference.
That's right. Mm.
They do have a point.
Yeah, I'm saying,
we could set you up.
With who? We know gay men.
Other than me.
Your dad? Ohh.
Is it just me, or
is Beckett, like,
out for blood with
Bishop these days?
Dude! Okay.
I didn't want to say anything,
but I heard him tell Carina
that Bishop tried blackmailing
Ross into firing him.
What? Yeah.
No. That is... Come on, stop.
That's ridiculous.
Is it, though?
Bishop's the most ruthless
person I know, except, well...
you.
What could she blackmail
Chief Ross about?
Exactly. I mean, why
would she need to?
'Cause you could fire Beckett
for literally anything.
I mean, pick
something. Any reason.
Maybe Ross is a con artist
and was never even a
firefighter before.
Oh. That's your
opening play? Yeah.
That's a little extreme.
But you know what? I mean...
I like it, so...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, maybe she's an
international super spy.
Ooh! I like that.
Origin story.
I like it.
I love that. Yeah.
Like a bank robber,
hiding out from the cops.
It's 2022.
You'd think we'd figure out how
to digitize Crisis One filings.
Please tell me that what
I just heard is not true.
What did you hear?
That you
blackmailed Ross.
Did Carina
tell you that?
No. People are talking.
Wait. Why would your
wife tell me that?
She thinks something's
wrong with me.
If you blackmailed
the Chief, then, yeah,
I-I might have to agree.
I just wanted my job back.
Oh, so you thought...
You thought blackmail was
the way to do that, huh?
Maya... I saw an
opportunity, so I took it.
What opportunity?
You're already looking
at me like you think
I'm scum, so never mind.
Oh. Come on. Stop it.
Girl, look, it's me.
I mean, whatever you
tell me stays here.
People are out there,
making up stories
that are probably way worse
than whatever the truth is,
so you might...
I told Chief Ross
that if she didn't get rid
of Beckett and reinstate me
as Captain, then I would
go to the department
and report her
relationship with Sullivan.
Aren't they just old friends?
I think they're more than that.
Or at least they used to be.
Or maybe that's what she wanted,
and that's why she promoted him?
I don't know. But it was
gross and inappropriate.
We've all been gross
and inappropriate
at some point or another.
But we do not
blackmail each other.
I know, and it was
a stupid impulse,
because I didn't have any proof
so I couldn't
actually report them,
but Ross went to
Beckett and told him
I tried to stab him in
the back so she could keep
her nose clean and let
him punish me himself,
which is actually
kind of genius,
and if I didn't hate her so
much, I'd actually love her.
But now Beckett has
been taking it out on me
the last six months until
my wife got upset with him
and confronted him about it,
and he told her what I did,
and now she thinks that I need
therapy. Wait, wait, hold up.
You didn't even tell Carina?
I didn't say it was a good plan.
Okay, all right.
Okay.
Y-You have to
promise me one thing.
Actually, two things.
One, do not tell anyone
else in this house
what you just told me, okay?
Do you want to go back to
when they all hated you?
No. Right, exactly.
And two...
Engine 19,
Ladder 19, Aid Car 19
requested at 5178
San Juan Court.
Aid car is wrapping
up another call.
They'll meet us.
Bishop, you're on the
ladder with me. Why?
'Cause I need someone
to polish my helmet.
Cutler, you're on the engine.
Maybe the new chief's a Wiccan.
Maybe the Chief
made a pass at Maya.
You think she's her type?
What's a Wiccan?
Hey, what was the second thing?
Listen to your
wife. Get some help.
Herrera, you're
interior division.
Sullivan, Hughes, fire attack.
Find the fire,
drop-bag a hose line.
Montgomery, Ruiz,
search and rescue.
Evac the building.
My neighbors,
they're still inside!
They're old, and the
husband uses a walker.
What apartment, ma'am? Oh, God.
I can't believe I left them!
Ma'am, what unit?!
That building, Unit D!
Stay here. Go around!
Ah! Cap, the hydrant's dry.
City probably
hasn't updated them
in this neighborhood in years.
Yeah, well, if we need more
than the 500 gallons...
I'll get a tanker.
Dispatch... this is
incident command.
We need a tanker ASAP!
Set it for next
week. Okay. Got you.
Then you have the budget meeting
with city council at 1 :00.
That doesn't leave you
time for a lunch break.
Do you want... Kel, you know
I don't take a lunch break.
1:00 is fine. No lunch?
That must be how you
keep such a slim figure.
Michael Dixon.
I forget we work in
the same building
since you're hardly ever here.
So, Montgomery... he's become
quite the fan favorite, huh?
You threatened?
Oh, yeah, I was really
counting on that boost
from the gay Asian voting bloc.
10% of nurses in Washington
state are Asian American.
Oh, oh, wait!
The Nurses Union
endorsement is key
in the mayoral race, isn't it?
So is the Police
Union's. And Fire.
Two out of three.
You think Montgomery has the
Fire Union in his pocket?
Wow!
19... they really
live in their own
little bubble, don't they?
Send them my cuddles
and snuggles, Ross.
Nice makeover, by the way.
The tie made you
look so mannish.
Says a guy with a spray tan.
I don't think we
need to admit you,
but I would like to observe
you for a little while longer,
just to be sure. Okay?
Thank you, Doctor.
Hey.
Why are you acting
surprised to see me?
You know I work here.
Yeah, not so much
surprised as, um...
Ashamed?
I was gonna say afraid.
Can we finish yelling at me
after I get some pain meds?
You think I'm yelling?
Is that not what's happening?
No, Jack, I'm not
yelling at you.
Have you ever been
yelled at by an Italian?
Yeah, you.
Well, then, when I
yell, you'll know.
Show me.
This
looks horrible.
I am sorry, by the way.
Yeah, for abandoning us after
committing to be our donor?
Uh-huh, you should
feel sorry about that.
"Abandon" is a strong word.
No, that's the accurate word.
You made me believe that
you had made a real change
and you had matured and grown
into somebody that
I could trust,
and you are none
of these things.
None.
Yeah, no, you're right.
Squeeze. You dodged
a bullet with me.
I suck. Don't just
agree with me.
I'm... Okay.
Um, you're wrong.
Shut up?
Oh, my God!
Apartment D is up on the right.
Hello?!
Can anyone inside
reach the door?!
Please! Help us!
Come on. Come on, sir.
Let me help, let me
help. Back up, back up.
Ma'am, can you walk? Yes, yes.
Okay, follow us!
Okay, no! No,
no, no! Leave it!
Leave the vitamins,
and let's go!
It's time to go.
It's time to go.
Oh, no, no! Okay, no!
Whatever that is, it's not...
Okay, it's your wedding
album. That is important.
Keep moving, all the way out.
Is he okay? Nice and slow.
That way! Follow them!
Checking
for an extension.
Why are there no
smoke alarms going off?
Is anyone up here?!
Hello?! Hello?!
What in the world is this stuff?
Sounds like we got
fire in the walls.
I just got to tie
off for the hose.
What the hell are all
these computer servers for?
Ah, damn it! What
are you doing here?
Hey, hey, hey! You
gotta get out of here!
Hughes, cut the power.
Got it!
No, I can't! I gotta...
No, no, listen.
I need to...
Don't touch the hazard.
Sully, I found the problem!
There you go, there you go.
Ready. All right.
- Hughes, you ready?
- Yeah, gimme a sec!
I got him, Hughes.
Get the water up here.
Captain, I'm coming out.
You're on the tank till we
get more water. Make it last.
Just take deep
breaths, deep breaths.
Okay, let's
have a seat right here.
You're gonna be okay, ma'am.
What's your name? Ivy.
My husband's Gerald.
Okay, Ivy. My name's Travis.
I want you to put this on.
Take slow, deep breaths.
40 years we've lived here.
Ivy, I want you to keep
this mask on, all right?
I promise we're doing everything
we can to put that fire out.
Okay, Gerald, slow,
deep breaths, all right?
We'll have an aid car here soon
to take you to the hospital.
Captain, I need an
ETA on Aid Car 19.
Bishop, he was poking around
the scene of the fire.
A bunch of computers
bootleg-wired together.
I got him, I got him.
Take a breath, take
a breath. Breathe.
19, building's clear,
knock that fire down.
Remember, we only
got 500 gallons.
Dr. Williams to NICU.
Dr. Williams to NICU.
This is a new surgical
intern, Dr. Adams.
You think I might need surgery?
I don't decide that.
He will decide that.
It's pretty jacked.
What happened?
It involved a tree, a
tornado, and some handcuffs.
I hope at
least you had some fun.
I shoulda gotten it checked
out a week ago, but...
You were in self-destruct mode,
like everybody in
my life seems to be.
Yeah, we're gonna need an X-ray.
Why are you looking
at me?! Go order it!
Dr. Stanson,
please dial 378.
Dr. Stanson, 378.
I'm pretty sure they call that
a hostile work environment.
That's how interns learn.
We scare them, okay?
Okay. Yeah. Okay.
I keep telling people that I'm
meaner because of the hormones,
and that's part of
it, but it's be...
It's... it's because...
I left, and you
guys had to pivot.
Oh, my God, Jack, no!
That has literally
nothing to do with you.
There are mountains of
sperm for sale in the world.
We have all the sperm we need.
Okay, yeah. No, you're
right. Not... Not about me.
I got it.
It's just because I'm so angry.
I'm angry at my wife
and at the world,
and anger is like a
poison that comes out
as meanness, and...
I used to wear pink scrubs
because work was my happy place,
full of happy people,
bringing in new life, and...
now we're wearing black
scrubs, in protest,
because women's bodies are
held hostage by the government.
And...
I literally have no
happy place left.
Yeah. This keeps happening.
It's the hormones.
Carina, are you pregnant now?
No. May... I don't know.
Okay, I'm gonna need
to take you to imaging.
What's the wheelchair
for? He can walk!
She's not usually this angry.
Do you even know
where imaging is?
That was gonna be
my next quest...
Oh, my God. I'll take
him. You go l-learn stuff.
You, come on, move.
You can walk, go. Okay.
Come on! Oh, my
gosh, all right.
I'm coming. Wow.
This is gonna sting.
I gotta... Those computers,
I gotta get them out.
That's a conversation for
your insurance company now.
I don't understand
how this could've happened.
Sounds like the complex
hasn't been well -maintained.
When we first got married,
this was a nice neighborhood.
Clean.
We were the only people
we knew with a pool.
Ivy, I need you to keep
this mask on, please.
But then, like everything
else, it started to change.
They stopped fixing the roads.
The prices got so high,
the stores had to close.
The building manager
covered the pool
instead of maintaining it.
The rent went up.
We can't afford to move,
can't afford to stay.
Gerald. Gerald?
Hey, Warren, I need
some help over here.
What's happening?
No, Gerald! Gerald!
Don't leave me! Man:
Ma'am, stay back.
They need to work. No,
no, I have to be with him.
Charging! Wait. Is he okay?
No, what...
what's going on? Clear!
Why isn't... Why isn't...
V-tach arrest still.
Time for epi. Arrest? Does
that mean heart attack?
Ethan, I need you to stay calm
and take deep breaths, okay?
You have to
help him! Help him!
W-What's... What's going on?
Tell me, what's going on?
Gerald? Hey, do
you know that man?
Gerald, you promised. Hey,
Ethan, do you know that man?
Stay with me. What? No,
I-I-I don't live here.
Gerald! Do not leave
me! You hear me?!
Miss, Gerald just
needs some space.
What do you know? What?
If you know how that
fire got started
and you're not telling us and
that man dies, you go to jail.
Please. Please,
tell me what's going on.
All right, I'm gonna
charge it again. Charging!
Charging again?
What does that mean? Clear!
We got him.
Oh!
My Gerald.
Gerald, honey. You
came back to me.
We need to get him
to the hospital now.
Where the hell's that aid car?
What the hell? Talk. Now.
It's eating right
through these walls.
Yeah, old
building, cheap material.
Let's hope there's not
too much more of this.
We have about four
minutes of water left.
But do we have less than
four minutes of fire?
Captain, how soon until
we have more supply?
We have more fire
than we have water.
I need an ETA ASAP.
Captain, we're gonna need
that water real soon.
Where's this tanker
coming from, Canada?
Yeah, why don't
we have it knocked down?
Dry hydrant, short on water.
Yeah, that tracks,
unfortunately.
You call a tanker? Yep,
still eight minutes out.
All right. Let me
try to expedite.
I'm searching the perimeter
for another hydrant.
Captain, we've used more
than half the supply already!
Tanker's eight minutes out.
The chief is expediting.
In eight minutes, this
building is toast!
Captain, we do not have
to wait for the tanker.
Fire Attack, save the last
hundred gallons for the siphon.
Water.
We have water,
folks. Let her rip.
Herrera's a genius!
She stopped me just in
time to leave enough water
for the siphon! That's our
Senior Man.
Hey. They'll bring you
in in just a minute.
Thank you.
Uh... Oh.
Okay, I have to ask.
Was any of it true?
When you left Seattle, we
were worried sick about you.
And... And Andy told us
you were looking for
your foster siblings.
But did you even leave Seattle?
Or have you been hiding
at that drunk woman's
house this whole time?
No, I-I left. I... I
tried to find them.
That... That wasn't a lie.
Okay. And then what happened?
Well, uh, it took
a while, but, um...
eventually, I found out
that, uh, my brother, Cal,
lives in Utah.
Okay. So that's where I went.
I got his address, went
to his door, and, uh...
nothing.
He didn't remember me.
I mean, he was 7 and I was 12,
so it's a bit fuzzier for him.
But, um...
I didn't think
there was much point
in looking for Lily after
that, so I got in my truck,
and I just drove
around for a while.
Um, camped up and
down the coast.
Um, slept in my truck
for a couple weeks.
And then, uh, somehow, found
myself back in Seattle.
That's when I walked into a bar
and saw Eva, and then, uh...
Yeah, I-I guess that
was a couple months ago.
I feel like the whole
world is on fire right now.
E-Everyone I know
is in pain or a panic,
or they're lost.
Or they're ruining
their own lives
or somebody else's life or...
they're suffering or grieving
or trying to convince
themselves that love and life
is something worth fighting for.
You're saying I'm not special?
I'm saying we're
having a moment.
All of humanity seems
to be having a moment
right now, and...
Your story
breaks my heart, Jack,
but you don't have to
be alone in your pain
unless you keep
choosing to be alone.
Gibson, Jack? Yeah.
Thank you.
Go.
Okay. There you
go. Nice and easy.
And put your seat belt on.
I'm not as frail as I look.
Oh, I can tell.
Tell them.
His computers started the fire.
His bootleg wiring
job overheated
and blew out his system.
It was a power surge
that fried the servers,
and they're not mine.
What are they for?
You're not a cop. You
can't interrogate me.
He's right. Let's
just call PD.
Sounds good. That way,
when they figure out
whatever Dark Web, child porn,
human-trafficking
ring he's involved in,
they won't have to make a
second trip to arrest him.
Think of the gas they'll
save. Goodness. Mm.
I hope you have a
good defense attorney.
Okay, okay, calm down.
It's a crypto mine.
It's not illegal.
I'm just trying
to get my bag up.
What's a crypto mine?
Basically, a giant calculator
looking for the next
piece of an equation
that's somehow worth
a lot of money.
What, you think I got
rich playing Keno, Bishop?
Whose servers are they?
Chief.
PD will get this out of him.
Yeah. How long will that take?
Whoever put him in
charge of this operation
likely has others,
and if they're as shoddily
rigged as this one,
they're just fire hazards
waiting to happen.
Listen, Ethan.
I understand what it's like
to follow orders,
be a good soldier.
But following orders just
cost 40 people their homes
and possibly their lungs.
Is that worth the few
extra bucks that you and whoever
put you up to this are gonna make?
Welcome
to capitalism.
Tech billionaires, developers?
They're cheating the
system for billions,
and the city calls
it a "tax incentive."
I run a few crypto rigs
out of my apartment,
but I'm a criminal?
Yeah, well, siphoning
electric power is a crime,
and if that man Gerald dies,
are you willing to go to prison
to protect whoever
put you up to this?
Will he be okay?
Well, he's not quite alert yet,
and he's not out of the woods,
but I think he'll be okay.
Oh, please, God.
We're old but not old
enough to bury each other.
Yeah, well, I have
every intention
of living to be 100 years old,
and I expect my
wife to do the same.
I get it.
What about you? Do
you have a wife?
I do not. Oh.
I had a husband, though.
Oh!
My grandson is gay.
That's... Congratulations.
You know, he's... He's
running for mayor.
No, sir! Oh, yeah.
Isn't that something?
W-What's your name?
I-I'll write it down.
Uh, Montgomery, Travis.
Well, now, if you're running for
mayor, you'll need a husband!
Here... take my
grandson's number.
T-Thank you, Ivy,
but, you know, I...
I tried dating a grandson
once, and it didn't work out.
You haven't met my grandson.
You know what?
You give me that number.
I'll make sure he...
Okay. Yeah.
Thank you, Warren.
I'm here to help.
And this guy,
"Bryan," he paid you
to illegally bootleg
the servers?
They're his rigs, he wired them.
And you just let him?
He paid me 2 grand a
month, so, yeah, I let him.
To keep his computer equipment?
Why you? Why your place?
I'm a college student,
which means that I am poor,
which means I qualify for
cheap power through the city's
Utility Discount Program.
Mining takes a lot of power,
and the cheaper the power,
the bigger your profit margin,
and he's making a killing.
Already had another mine
at another guy's apartment
with 10 rigs going.
Where?
I don't know. I swear!
Probably some crappy
complex like this one.
And the crappier the building,
the less chance of
anyone asking questions.
As if being poor
weren't bad enough.
"Bryan" is not answering.
Do we just start
knocking on doors
at all low-income housing
buildings all over town?
Sure, Bishop, why don't
you go get a head start?
No, no.
We call City Light,
see how many low-income units
are drawing unusual
amounts of power.
That'll take days.
Not for the Fire Chief.
It's Chief Ross from SFD.
You know, you're not a bad
captain when you're sober.
Wish I could say the
same about you, Bishop.
You guys used to
date or something?
'Cause that dude
really hates you.
Shut up. Just sign
here for discharge.
Just use your finger.
Ethan, this is your last chance.
Where are Bryan's
other crypto mines?
I swear to God, I don't know.
What did City Light say?
There are power surges
happening all over the city.
Bryan's crypto mines just
became ticking time bombs.
All right. This just
became critical.
I need all users drawing
way above average power.
All right, 19!
Engine's going to the pin
that I sent you, Sullivan.
Beckett's gonna take the
ladder to the other address.
I've got the third one.
We're looking for illegally
wired computer servers.
So what do we do
when we find them?
We politely ask whoever
is there to unplug them.
And what if they don't?
Then you call Dispatch
for PD backup, all right?
Keep going till we
hit all five spots
or we get another call,
whatever comes first.
All right, let's go!
"Only you can prevent
crypto fires."
I don't get it.
You had to be born in the '80s.
Bishop must be hating
life right now,
stuck on a field
trip with Beckett.
They're both professionals.
He's probably making her
scrape the gum off the bottom
of the seats or something.
Man, I gotta know what
she threatened him with.
I'm sure whatever happened
was blown out of proportion.
You don't think the
Chief hit on her, do you?
'Cause if that is what happened,
I'm honestly a little
offended it wasn't me.
But I guess... All right, that's
enough. Knock it off, all right?
It's... It's disrespectful.
Oh, come on. Only if
we say it to her face.
Herrera, don't take
away all my fun.
Uh, that's it. Uh,
right up there.
We sure this guy isn't violent?
No. We don't know
anything at this point.
And what if he tries to...
Oh, I think we found him.
Hey! Hey, hey!
Hey, are you Bryan?! I
don't know any Bryan.
I-I'm not doing
anything illegal.
Look, we're Seattle Fire.
We just want to talk to you.
We aren't cops. We just want to
make sure there's no fire hazard!
- Wait, no!
- Hey, hey!
- Hey, hey!
- Ooh!
Ugh.
Oh, no. Ooh. Ooh,
okay. All right.
- Okay, okay.
- Okay.
Well,
that was a bust.
Next address is 582 Willow.
So, you're into Bitcoin?
How about some tunes, Kline?
We never listen to tunes
in the rig anymore.
Come on, Kline!
Yeah, you
got some... Oof!
Some bad bruising but at least
no open wounds or
bleeding. Thanks.
All right, this is gonna help
with the swelling, all right?
Can you keep
me covered up, man?
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
I'd be more concerned about the
fire you're responsible for,
the utility fraud you committed
than us seeing your weird li...
All right, all right, Hughes.
Hughes. Shutting up.
You hit your head pretty hard.
Both of them. Hughes.
Shutting up!
Concussion? Most likely.
He's gonna need a
trip to the hospital
on his way to prison. Herrera.
Okay. I'm shutting up now.
I feel you, man.
I mean... damn.
Captain, we found Crypto Bro.
We need to get him
to the hospital.
What's the status
on the aid car?
Copy, Aid Car 19 en route.
So, uh, listen...
I don't know if Hughes is right
about this whole you
needing a partner thing,
but I have Ivy's
grandson's number.
So he's a tall drink of water,
I hear. War... Not you, Warren.
Please... Please
not you, too, okay?
Can you not try
to set me up, too?
I don't need that from you.
I don't know why
nobody believes me
when I say I'm not
trying to actually win.
Oh, I know why.
Because you don't believe you.
I don't want to win. Yeah.
Because if I do,
the chances of me
becoming like Dixon
are way too high,
and I'm hanging way too
close to that edge already.
Why? Why?
Because you... You got
a little good press?
A-And you actually liked it?
Come on, Montgomery, look...
You could buy a dozen billboards
a-and a Super Bowl ad,
and you still wouldn't be a
fraction as corrupt as that man.
I promise you.
Think I could just do an X?
I don't care.
Bye.
What did radiology say?
Buckle fracture of
the distal radius.
But, you know, just
a splint, so...
Does it still hurt?
I'm fine.
You know, all of humanity
is in pain, so...
I wasn't dismissing
your pain, Jack.
I know.
I was just saying
don't be alone in it.
Don't add pain to your
pain by keeping it
all to yourself when there
are people who love you.
I was saying the abuses
of your childhood
will only define you if you
need everything to end in chaos.
I-I-I was saying,
don't self-destruct!
J-Just get help when the people
you love tell you you need help!
Wow.
I think I'm talking to my wife.
She's not here.
Oh, I know!
That's what it sounds like
when an Italian yells at y...
You don't care.
Nope.
New theory. Mm!
The chief and Beckett have
an illegal crypto pool,
and Bishop found out.
Oh, so maybe Chief is in
cahoots with Bryan in there!
I like it!
Maybe Chief Ross has a
drinking problem herself.
And Maya
threatened to out her
if she didn't fire
Beckett. Right? Yeah, yeah.
Well, if that's true,
how come both Beckett
and the Chief are still around?
Because they both got clean,
except the Chief did it
the right way so you
could never tell.
Not like the captain,
who just, you know,
subbed booze for breath mints.
Okay, guys, seriously, stop.
Oh, God, it's just
a joke, Herrera.
Yeah, it's all good fun.
Except it's not,
because it's real people
and real lives
you're talking about.
Oh, okay.
All right.
You want to know what
Maya said to the Chief?
Oh, you know?
Yeah, you know now?
Of course I do!
Yeah, dude, tell us.
We all knew you knew.
It was because of me.
Bishop went to the Chief
and said that if the Chief
doesn't fire Beckett and
make me captain of 19,
Maya was gonna make a
public stink about the Chief
looking the other way
about Beckett's drinking.
And then, right
after, Gibson left,
so there was room for me...
Yeah, and she didn't
have to fire Beckett
and told him to get clean.
Right. Right.
And the Chief told Beckett that
Maya tried to get him canned.
Mm. I mean, that's kinda
sneaky, and I like it.
And now Beckett has the freshest
breath in the department...
And a serious grudge
against Bishop.
And I-I just found out,
so, look, her... her
plan kinda worked, right?
I'm back.
Yeah, Senior Man. Right.
All right, so just
stop with the...
The rumors and the
gossip. Oh, yeah, yeah.
And let's just focus on getting
Gibson back on his feet,
and let's... let's have each
other's backs, all right?
Yeah. 19! God!
19! Thank you!
Crypto Bro okay?
Concussion.
And gnarly groin injury.
Yeah, he won't be riding
any horses anytime soon.
No, he scrambled his
own eggs by jumping off
that balcony to
avoid getting caught.
Yeah, but, you know, we, uh...
We kind of played
cowboy, though, right?
Fire safety is in our purview.
I agree. The guy's a criminal.
He did this to himself.
I mean, he
preyed on poor people
and the city's lack of
empathy for their needs.
What? Maya: Yeah, in order to
"get his own bag up."
His bag
is all the way up
in his abdominal
cavity right now.
Vic, no!
No! Too soon. Come on! Yeah!
You know who's into crypto?
Bishop, why do I see
your wife around here
more than my own girlfriend?
You have a girlfriend?
He has a girlfriend.
So he gets laid regularly
and is still a dick?
Stop with the
rumors and gossip.
Just ignore him.
Yeah, I'm good at that.
I was just telling Andy that
I saw Jack this morning.
At the hospital? Yeah, at least he
finally got his wrist looked at.
Yeah, he's not doing
well. He... He needs help.
Yeah, that was clear
when we found him drunk,
under a tree, handcuffed
to Eva Vasquez's bed.
I thought he was your friend.
He was, and then he left.
Look, if the department
really takes care of its own,
there's probably, like,
an outreach program...
If you guys are
talking about Gibson,
he already made his own bed
out of handcuffs and greenery.
You can have your girl talk
here, but I need to eat.
Ciao.
And I need a workout.
Maya...
I am sorry Jack is struggling,
but he ditched us.
Yeah, that's kinda cold.
I mean, do we have each
other's backs, or do we not?
I'm dealing with my
own problems right now.
Except you're not really
dealing with them.
I am, in my own way.
Okay.
H-Have you started
looking for therapists?
I'm gonna go get cleaned up.
No.
No me, or no her?
I'm sorry I haven't
done everything
on your timeline, Carina.
I'm living in my
own personal hell.
And my co-workers are
now gossiping about me...
Actually, I fixed that...
And my boss hates me
and treats me worse than
I was treated as a probie.
And now my wife
can't have my back
because she has suddenly
decided that I am unstable.
So, no, I haven't
researched therapists
because I've been kind
of busy with all of that.
I'm sorry. I... I-I-I'll
call Jack again.
Thank you. I'm heading out.
Ready?
Booze up and be
somebody!
Mm. Mm!
Hey, baby.
Hey.
Want a shot?
I'll do one with you. Okay.
What'd you do today?
Whoo-hoo! Ha ha!
Does this mean you can
pull my hair again?
Soon, yeah.
To getting your grip back.
Mm.
Oh, excuse me. Have we met?
You know, that shower
was not nearly as good
as the one this morning.
Yeah, well, I have
better body wash.
That must be it.
Mm.
Mm.
What?
I just... You're not
real. This isn't real.
This is too... perfect.
Come on. No, I'm...
I'm so in love with you.
And we have mind-blowing sex,
and we work together, here,
without friction or
awkwardness or competitiveness.
Those aren't bad
things. I know.
I just feel like
I'm being lulled
into this sense of
comfort and security,
and I'm totally unaware of
this giant pile of bricks
that's about to drop on my
head, so can you just drop it
and let's just get it over with?
Are you a con
artist?
Or in witness protection?
Or, like, a closet
crypto bro or something?
Things are good, so something's
got to be wrong with me?
No, I'm just saying,
look at Carina, okay?
She marries Maya, thinking
she met the perfect match,
and they're living this
picture-perfect life,
and then, turns out, Maya's
just a nasty blackmailer.
Are you
really surprised?
I am just saying,
if there is something
that I should know,
or, like, a shoe that's
about to drop, can...
I thought it was
bricks about to drop.
Okay.
What if nothing's about to drop?
What if I pinch
myself every morning
because I can't believe
how lucky I am to have you?
What if sometimes I
don't think you're real?
Hmm?
What if, last year, when
we broke up and you...
were pregnant...
what if I thought that
was, for sure, the end?
And maybe I cried.
Yeah.
And I thought, "It was
good while it lasted."
Well, here we are. Yeah.
And, uh, I might've
blackmailed Beckett...
Ugh. to taking me
when 23 closed down.
Canoodling in the firehouse!
Oh! Well, I am shocked.
Sorry, Mayor Trav. Yes.
Mayor Trav. How about
a shame ticket for you?
You can have one, too.
I don't need any shame.
That's right.
I feel like I'm having déjà vu.
Yeah, just burning off the day.
Yeah.
Well, listen, I-I just
wanted to say that, um...
Herrera told us
about what you did.
How you went
toe-to-toe with Ross
to get her job back at 19.
That took guts.
But it was the
right thing to do,
'cause, you know,
Herrera, she belongs here.
All right? So, uh,
good looking out.
Yeah.
Honest taxpayers want to know
why the city is allowing
these cryptocurrency criminals
to operate right
under our noses.
Great. Now I agree with him.
See? It's happening already.
As if we don't even exist.
Hey. Ooh!
Hey.
Uh...
Maya is not herself.
Okay. She's...
She's not herself.
She's in self-destruct mode,
and when she goes there,
she brings people with her.
Uh-huh.
If you're sleeping with the
Chief, you need to stop.
I'm not sleeping with the Chief.
I know you. I know you well.
I know what you look
like when you're in love.
I know what you look like
when you're keeping a secret.
I know you, and
I care about you.
You fought hard to
get your career back.
So if you are
playing with fire...
I'm not.
You're walking through
this house smiling
and... and texting
like a teenage girl.
Because I'm on a
dating app. Mm.
So... So why does
Maya think that...
Maya needs to mind
her own business.
I served with the Chief.
I had a connection.
A lifeline with
someone who got it,
who understood what I survived.
And now I can't even have
a conversation with her
without people accusing
me of something.
Robert... No, Andy.
You got it wrong.
It's not happening.
It's not happening.
Hey.
Okay?
I didn't call for you.
Today was tough.
Welcome to firefighting.
Not the job.
You constantly busting my
chops in front of the others.
Bishop, if you're
here to whine...
It's because I tried
to get you fired.
I get it.
I think we're even now.
I want to declare a truce.
Peace offering.
It's your favorite, right?
Good night, Captain.
Captions by VITAC...
You okay?
Didn't I see you running into
work when I was driving in?
Yeah, that was my
warm-up.
Bishop.
That Crisis One paperwork
isn't gonna file itself.
Yeah, Hughes usually does
the paperwork for Crisis One.
I believe the words you're
looking for are, "Yes, Captain."
Yes, Captain.
He's even more
charming than usual.
Travis Montgomery can
grandstand all he wants,
but the truth is, the people
want somebody with experience.
I've been working at
city hall in one capacity
or another for 15 years.
Montgomery's been a non -ranking
firefighter for less than 10.
Dixon is so salty that
you're getting famous!
I'm not getting famous.
Like, five people have shared
that video from the tornado.
You are Seattle famous.
Embrace it, buddy. It's
gonna help you win.
I don't want to win. I
just want Dixon to lose.
Seriously, though,
you could win.
Look, they are calling
you "Mayor Trav."
Oh, okay.
So I'm not even Seattle Famous,
I'm Seattle Gay -Famous.
Yeah. I'm Gaymous.
Yeah, you are.
Jack, I'm gonna
fill up your voicemail
until you call me back.
Has anyone heard from Gibson?
Look at Mayor
Trav. Look at him.
Ooh! Jaunty.
You know this means you
need a boyfriend, right?
Theo, not in front of Vic.
Wha... Ah, buh, buh. Wait,
wait, wait, he's right.
As your campaign manager...
You're not my campaign manager.
As your campaign manager,
I would be irresponsible
not to tell you that
candidates poll 4% higher
when they're in a
committed relationship.
Even more when they're married.
I'm pretty sure that
doesn't include gay men.
Ah, gay firefighter.
Big difference.
That's right. Mm.
They do have a point.
Yeah, I'm saying,
we could set you up.
With who? We know gay men.
Other than me.
Your dad? Ohh.
Is it just me, or
is Beckett, like,
out for blood with
Bishop these days?
Dude! Okay.
I didn't want to say anything,
but I heard him tell Carina
that Bishop tried blackmailing
Ross into firing him.
What? Yeah.
No. That is... Come on, stop.
That's ridiculous.
Is it, though?
Bishop's the most ruthless
person I know, except, well...
you.
What could she blackmail
Chief Ross about?
Exactly. I mean, why
would she need to?
'Cause you could fire Beckett
for literally anything.
I mean, pick
something. Any reason.
Maybe Ross is a con artist
and was never even a
firefighter before.
Oh. That's your
opening play? Yeah.
That's a little extreme.
But you know what? I mean...
I like it, so...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, maybe she's an
international super spy.
Ooh! I like that.
Origin story.
I like it.
I love that. Yeah.
Like a bank robber,
hiding out from the cops.
It's 2022.
You'd think we'd figure out how
to digitize Crisis One filings.
Please tell me that what
I just heard is not true.
What did you hear?
That you
blackmailed Ross.
Did Carina
tell you that?
No. People are talking.
Wait. Why would your
wife tell me that?
She thinks something's
wrong with me.
If you blackmailed
the Chief, then, yeah,
I-I might have to agree.
I just wanted my job back.
Oh, so you thought...
You thought blackmail was
the way to do that, huh?
Maya... I saw an
opportunity, so I took it.
What opportunity?
You're already looking
at me like you think
I'm scum, so never mind.
Oh. Come on. Stop it.
Girl, look, it's me.
I mean, whatever you
tell me stays here.
People are out there,
making up stories
that are probably way worse
than whatever the truth is,
so you might...
I told Chief Ross
that if she didn't get rid
of Beckett and reinstate me
as Captain, then I would
go to the department
and report her
relationship with Sullivan.
Aren't they just old friends?
I think they're more than that.
Or at least they used to be.
Or maybe that's what she wanted,
and that's why she promoted him?
I don't know. But it was
gross and inappropriate.
We've all been gross
and inappropriate
at some point or another.
But we do not
blackmail each other.
I know, and it was
a stupid impulse,
because I didn't have any proof
so I couldn't
actually report them,
but Ross went to
Beckett and told him
I tried to stab him in
the back so she could keep
her nose clean and let
him punish me himself,
which is actually
kind of genius,
and if I didn't hate her so
much, I'd actually love her.
But now Beckett has
been taking it out on me
the last six months until
my wife got upset with him
and confronted him about it,
and he told her what I did,
and now she thinks that I need
therapy. Wait, wait, hold up.
You didn't even tell Carina?
I didn't say it was a good plan.
Okay, all right.
Okay.
Y-You have to
promise me one thing.
Actually, two things.
One, do not tell anyone
else in this house
what you just told me, okay?
Do you want to go back to
when they all hated you?
No. Right, exactly.
And two...
Engine 19,
Ladder 19, Aid Car 19
requested at 5178
San Juan Court.
Aid car is wrapping
up another call.
They'll meet us.
Bishop, you're on the
ladder with me. Why?
'Cause I need someone
to polish my helmet.
Cutler, you're on the engine.
Maybe the new chief's a Wiccan.
Maybe the Chief
made a pass at Maya.
You think she's her type?
What's a Wiccan?
Hey, what was the second thing?
Listen to your
wife. Get some help.
Herrera, you're
interior division.
Sullivan, Hughes, fire attack.
Find the fire,
drop-bag a hose line.
Montgomery, Ruiz,
search and rescue.
Evac the building.
My neighbors,
they're still inside!
They're old, and the
husband uses a walker.
What apartment, ma'am? Oh, God.
I can't believe I left them!
Ma'am, what unit?!
That building, Unit D!
Stay here. Go around!
Ah! Cap, the hydrant's dry.
City probably
hasn't updated them
in this neighborhood in years.
Yeah, well, if we need more
than the 500 gallons...
I'll get a tanker.
Dispatch... this is
incident command.
We need a tanker ASAP!
Set it for next
week. Okay. Got you.
Then you have the budget meeting
with city council at 1 :00.
That doesn't leave you
time for a lunch break.
Do you want... Kel, you know
I don't take a lunch break.
1:00 is fine. No lunch?
That must be how you
keep such a slim figure.
Michael Dixon.
I forget we work in
the same building
since you're hardly ever here.
So, Montgomery... he's become
quite the fan favorite, huh?
You threatened?
Oh, yeah, I was really
counting on that boost
from the gay Asian voting bloc.
10% of nurses in Washington
state are Asian American.
Oh, oh, wait!
The Nurses Union
endorsement is key
in the mayoral race, isn't it?
So is the Police
Union's. And Fire.
Two out of three.
You think Montgomery has the
Fire Union in his pocket?
Wow!
19... they really
live in their own
little bubble, don't they?
Send them my cuddles
and snuggles, Ross.
Nice makeover, by the way.
The tie made you
look so mannish.
Says a guy with a spray tan.
I don't think we
need to admit you,
but I would like to observe
you for a little while longer,
just to be sure. Okay?
Thank you, Doctor.
Hey.
Why are you acting
surprised to see me?
You know I work here.
Yeah, not so much
surprised as, um...
Ashamed?
I was gonna say afraid.
Can we finish yelling at me
after I get some pain meds?
You think I'm yelling?
Is that not what's happening?
No, Jack, I'm not
yelling at you.
Have you ever been
yelled at by an Italian?
Yeah, you.
Well, then, when I
yell, you'll know.
Show me.
This
looks horrible.
I am sorry, by the way.
Yeah, for abandoning us after
committing to be our donor?
Uh-huh, you should
feel sorry about that.
"Abandon" is a strong word.
No, that's the accurate word.
You made me believe that
you had made a real change
and you had matured and grown
into somebody that
I could trust,
and you are none
of these things.
None.
Yeah, no, you're right.
Squeeze. You dodged
a bullet with me.
I suck. Don't just
agree with me.
I'm... Okay.
Um, you're wrong.
Shut up?
Oh, my God!
Apartment D is up on the right.
Hello?!
Can anyone inside
reach the door?!
Please! Help us!
Come on. Come on, sir.
Let me help, let me
help. Back up, back up.
Ma'am, can you walk? Yes, yes.
Okay, follow us!
Okay, no! No,
no, no! Leave it!
Leave the vitamins,
and let's go!
It's time to go.
It's time to go.
Oh, no, no! Okay, no!
Whatever that is, it's not...
Okay, it's your wedding
album. That is important.
Keep moving, all the way out.
Is he okay? Nice and slow.
That way! Follow them!
Checking
for an extension.
Why are there no
smoke alarms going off?
Is anyone up here?!
Hello?! Hello?!
What in the world is this stuff?
Sounds like we got
fire in the walls.
I just got to tie
off for the hose.
What the hell are all
these computer servers for?
Ah, damn it! What
are you doing here?
Hey, hey, hey! You
gotta get out of here!
Hughes, cut the power.
Got it!
No, I can't! I gotta...
No, no, listen.
I need to...
Don't touch the hazard.
Sully, I found the problem!
There you go, there you go.
Ready. All right.
- Hughes, you ready?
- Yeah, gimme a sec!
I got him, Hughes.
Get the water up here.
Captain, I'm coming out.
You're on the tank till we
get more water. Make it last.
Just take deep
breaths, deep breaths.
Okay, let's
have a seat right here.
You're gonna be okay, ma'am.
What's your name? Ivy.
My husband's Gerald.
Okay, Ivy. My name's Travis.
I want you to put this on.
Take slow, deep breaths.
40 years we've lived here.
Ivy, I want you to keep
this mask on, all right?
I promise we're doing everything
we can to put that fire out.
Okay, Gerald, slow,
deep breaths, all right?
We'll have an aid car here soon
to take you to the hospital.
Captain, I need an
ETA on Aid Car 19.
Bishop, he was poking around
the scene of the fire.
A bunch of computers
bootleg-wired together.
I got him, I got him.
Take a breath, take
a breath. Breathe.
19, building's clear,
knock that fire down.
Remember, we only
got 500 gallons.
Dr. Williams to NICU.
Dr. Williams to NICU.
This is a new surgical
intern, Dr. Adams.
You think I might need surgery?
I don't decide that.
He will decide that.
It's pretty jacked.
What happened?
It involved a tree, a
tornado, and some handcuffs.
I hope at
least you had some fun.
I shoulda gotten it checked
out a week ago, but...
You were in self-destruct mode,
like everybody in
my life seems to be.
Yeah, we're gonna need an X-ray.
Why are you looking
at me?! Go order it!
Dr. Stanson,
please dial 378.
Dr. Stanson, 378.
I'm pretty sure they call that
a hostile work environment.
That's how interns learn.
We scare them, okay?
Okay. Yeah. Okay.
I keep telling people that I'm
meaner because of the hormones,
and that's part of
it, but it's be...
It's... it's because...
I left, and you
guys had to pivot.
Oh, my God, Jack, no!
That has literally
nothing to do with you.
There are mountains of
sperm for sale in the world.
We have all the sperm we need.
Okay, yeah. No, you're
right. Not... Not about me.
I got it.
It's just because I'm so angry.
I'm angry at my wife
and at the world,
and anger is like a
poison that comes out
as meanness, and...
I used to wear pink scrubs
because work was my happy place,
full of happy people,
bringing in new life, and...
now we're wearing black
scrubs, in protest,
because women's bodies are
held hostage by the government.
And...
I literally have no
happy place left.
Yeah. This keeps happening.
It's the hormones.
Carina, are you pregnant now?
No. May... I don't know.
Okay, I'm gonna need
to take you to imaging.
What's the wheelchair
for? He can walk!
She's not usually this angry.
Do you even know
where imaging is?
That was gonna be
my next quest...
Oh, my God. I'll take
him. You go l-learn stuff.
You, come on, move.
You can walk, go. Okay.
Come on! Oh, my
gosh, all right.
I'm coming. Wow.
This is gonna sting.
I gotta... Those computers,
I gotta get them out.
That's a conversation for
your insurance company now.
I don't understand
how this could've happened.
Sounds like the complex
hasn't been well -maintained.
When we first got married,
this was a nice neighborhood.
Clean.
We were the only people
we knew with a pool.
Ivy, I need you to keep
this mask on, please.
But then, like everything
else, it started to change.
They stopped fixing the roads.
The prices got so high,
the stores had to close.
The building manager
covered the pool
instead of maintaining it.
The rent went up.
We can't afford to move,
can't afford to stay.
Gerald. Gerald?
Hey, Warren, I need
some help over here.
What's happening?
No, Gerald! Gerald!
Don't leave me! Man:
Ma'am, stay back.
They need to work. No,
no, I have to be with him.
Charging! Wait. Is he okay?
No, what...
what's going on? Clear!
Why isn't... Why isn't...
V-tach arrest still.
Time for epi. Arrest? Does
that mean heart attack?
Ethan, I need you to stay calm
and take deep breaths, okay?
You have to
help him! Help him!
W-What's... What's going on?
Tell me, what's going on?
Gerald? Hey, do
you know that man?
Gerald, you promised. Hey,
Ethan, do you know that man?
Stay with me. What? No,
I-I-I don't live here.
Gerald! Do not leave
me! You hear me?!
Miss, Gerald just
needs some space.
What do you know? What?
If you know how that
fire got started
and you're not telling us and
that man dies, you go to jail.
Please. Please,
tell me what's going on.
All right, I'm gonna
charge it again. Charging!
Charging again?
What does that mean? Clear!
We got him.
Oh!
My Gerald.
Gerald, honey. You
came back to me.
We need to get him
to the hospital now.
Where the hell's that aid car?
What the hell? Talk. Now.
It's eating right
through these walls.
Yeah, old
building, cheap material.
Let's hope there's not
too much more of this.
We have about four
minutes of water left.
But do we have less than
four minutes of fire?
Captain, how soon until
we have more supply?
We have more fire
than we have water.
I need an ETA ASAP.
Captain, we're gonna need
that water real soon.
Where's this tanker
coming from, Canada?
Yeah, why don't
we have it knocked down?
Dry hydrant, short on water.
Yeah, that tracks,
unfortunately.
You call a tanker? Yep,
still eight minutes out.
All right. Let me
try to expedite.
I'm searching the perimeter
for another hydrant.
Captain, we've used more
than half the supply already!
Tanker's eight minutes out.
The chief is expediting.
In eight minutes, this
building is toast!
Captain, we do not have
to wait for the tanker.
Fire Attack, save the last
hundred gallons for the siphon.
Water.
We have water,
folks. Let her rip.
Herrera's a genius!
She stopped me just in
time to leave enough water
for the siphon! That's our
Senior Man.
Hey. They'll bring you
in in just a minute.
Thank you.
Uh... Oh.
Okay, I have to ask.
Was any of it true?
When you left Seattle, we
were worried sick about you.
And... And Andy told us
you were looking for
your foster siblings.
But did you even leave Seattle?
Or have you been hiding
at that drunk woman's
house this whole time?
No, I-I left. I... I
tried to find them.
That... That wasn't a lie.
Okay. And then what happened?
Well, uh, it took
a while, but, um...
eventually, I found out
that, uh, my brother, Cal,
lives in Utah.
Okay. So that's where I went.
I got his address, went
to his door, and, uh...
nothing.
He didn't remember me.
I mean, he was 7 and I was 12,
so it's a bit fuzzier for him.
But, um...
I didn't think
there was much point
in looking for Lily after
that, so I got in my truck,
and I just drove
around for a while.
Um, camped up and
down the coast.
Um, slept in my truck
for a couple weeks.
And then, uh, somehow, found
myself back in Seattle.
That's when I walked into a bar
and saw Eva, and then, uh...
Yeah, I-I guess that
was a couple months ago.
I feel like the whole
world is on fire right now.
E-Everyone I know
is in pain or a panic,
or they're lost.
Or they're ruining
their own lives
or somebody else's life or...
they're suffering or grieving
or trying to convince
themselves that love and life
is something worth fighting for.
You're saying I'm not special?
I'm saying we're
having a moment.
All of humanity seems
to be having a moment
right now, and...
Your story
breaks my heart, Jack,
but you don't have to
be alone in your pain
unless you keep
choosing to be alone.
Gibson, Jack? Yeah.
Thank you.
Go.
Okay. There you
go. Nice and easy.
And put your seat belt on.
I'm not as frail as I look.
Oh, I can tell.
Tell them.
His computers started the fire.
His bootleg wiring
job overheated
and blew out his system.
It was a power surge
that fried the servers,
and they're not mine.
What are they for?
You're not a cop. You
can't interrogate me.
He's right. Let's
just call PD.
Sounds good. That way,
when they figure out
whatever Dark Web, child porn,
human-trafficking
ring he's involved in,
they won't have to make a
second trip to arrest him.
Think of the gas they'll
save. Goodness. Mm.
I hope you have a
good defense attorney.
Okay, okay, calm down.
It's a crypto mine.
It's not illegal.
I'm just trying
to get my bag up.
What's a crypto mine?
Basically, a giant calculator
looking for the next
piece of an equation
that's somehow worth
a lot of money.
What, you think I got
rich playing Keno, Bishop?
Whose servers are they?
Chief.
PD will get this out of him.
Yeah. How long will that take?
Whoever put him in
charge of this operation
likely has others,
and if they're as shoddily
rigged as this one,
they're just fire hazards
waiting to happen.
Listen, Ethan.
I understand what it's like
to follow orders,
be a good soldier.
But following orders just
cost 40 people their homes
and possibly their lungs.
Is that worth the few
extra bucks that you and whoever
put you up to this are gonna make?
Welcome
to capitalism.
Tech billionaires, developers?
They're cheating the
system for billions,
and the city calls
it a "tax incentive."
I run a few crypto rigs
out of my apartment,
but I'm a criminal?
Yeah, well, siphoning
electric power is a crime,
and if that man Gerald dies,
are you willing to go to prison
to protect whoever
put you up to this?
Will he be okay?
Well, he's not quite alert yet,
and he's not out of the woods,
but I think he'll be okay.
Oh, please, God.
We're old but not old
enough to bury each other.
Yeah, well, I have
every intention
of living to be 100 years old,
and I expect my
wife to do the same.
I get it.
What about you? Do
you have a wife?
I do not. Oh.
I had a husband, though.
Oh!
My grandson is gay.
That's... Congratulations.
You know, he's... He's
running for mayor.
No, sir! Oh, yeah.
Isn't that something?
W-What's your name?
I-I'll write it down.
Uh, Montgomery, Travis.
Well, now, if you're running for
mayor, you'll need a husband!
Here... take my
grandson's number.
T-Thank you, Ivy,
but, you know, I...
I tried dating a grandson
once, and it didn't work out.
You haven't met my grandson.
You know what?
You give me that number.
I'll make sure he...
Okay. Yeah.
Thank you, Warren.
I'm here to help.
And this guy,
"Bryan," he paid you
to illegally bootleg
the servers?
They're his rigs, he wired them.
And you just let him?
He paid me 2 grand a
month, so, yeah, I let him.
To keep his computer equipment?
Why you? Why your place?
I'm a college student,
which means that I am poor,
which means I qualify for
cheap power through the city's
Utility Discount Program.
Mining takes a lot of power,
and the cheaper the power,
the bigger your profit margin,
and he's making a killing.
Already had another mine
at another guy's apartment
with 10 rigs going.
Where?
I don't know. I swear!
Probably some crappy
complex like this one.
And the crappier the building,
the less chance of
anyone asking questions.
As if being poor
weren't bad enough.
"Bryan" is not answering.
Do we just start
knocking on doors
at all low-income housing
buildings all over town?
Sure, Bishop, why don't
you go get a head start?
No, no.
We call City Light,
see how many low-income units
are drawing unusual
amounts of power.
That'll take days.
Not for the Fire Chief.
It's Chief Ross from SFD.
You know, you're not a bad
captain when you're sober.
Wish I could say the
same about you, Bishop.
You guys used to
date or something?
'Cause that dude
really hates you.
Shut up. Just sign
here for discharge.
Just use your finger.
Ethan, this is your last chance.
Where are Bryan's
other crypto mines?
I swear to God, I don't know.
What did City Light say?
There are power surges
happening all over the city.
Bryan's crypto mines just
became ticking time bombs.
All right. This just
became critical.
I need all users drawing
way above average power.
All right, 19!
Engine's going to the pin
that I sent you, Sullivan.
Beckett's gonna take the
ladder to the other address.
I've got the third one.
We're looking for illegally
wired computer servers.
So what do we do
when we find them?
We politely ask whoever
is there to unplug them.
And what if they don't?
Then you call Dispatch
for PD backup, all right?
Keep going till we
hit all five spots
or we get another call,
whatever comes first.
All right, let's go!
"Only you can prevent
crypto fires."
I don't get it.
You had to be born in the '80s.
Bishop must be hating
life right now,
stuck on a field
trip with Beckett.
They're both professionals.
He's probably making her
scrape the gum off the bottom
of the seats or something.
Man, I gotta know what
she threatened him with.
I'm sure whatever happened
was blown out of proportion.
You don't think the
Chief hit on her, do you?
'Cause if that is what happened,
I'm honestly a little
offended it wasn't me.
But I guess... All right, that's
enough. Knock it off, all right?
It's... It's disrespectful.
Oh, come on. Only if
we say it to her face.
Herrera, don't take
away all my fun.
Uh, that's it. Uh,
right up there.
We sure this guy isn't violent?
No. We don't know
anything at this point.
And what if he tries to...
Oh, I think we found him.
Hey! Hey, hey!
Hey, are you Bryan?! I
don't know any Bryan.
I-I'm not doing
anything illegal.
Look, we're Seattle Fire.
We just want to talk to you.
We aren't cops. We just want to
make sure there's no fire hazard!
- Wait, no!
- Hey, hey!
- Hey, hey!
- Ooh!
Ugh.
Oh, no. Ooh. Ooh,
okay. All right.
- Okay, okay.
- Okay.
Well,
that was a bust.
Next address is 582 Willow.
So, you're into Bitcoin?
How about some tunes, Kline?
We never listen to tunes
in the rig anymore.
Come on, Kline!
Yeah, you
got some... Oof!
Some bad bruising but at least
no open wounds or
bleeding. Thanks.
All right, this is gonna help
with the swelling, all right?
Can you keep
me covered up, man?
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
I'd be more concerned about the
fire you're responsible for,
the utility fraud you committed
than us seeing your weird li...
All right, all right, Hughes.
Hughes. Shutting up.
You hit your head pretty hard.
Both of them. Hughes.
Shutting up!
Concussion? Most likely.
He's gonna need a
trip to the hospital
on his way to prison. Herrera.
Okay. I'm shutting up now.
I feel you, man.
I mean... damn.
Captain, we found Crypto Bro.
We need to get him
to the hospital.
What's the status
on the aid car?
Copy, Aid Car 19 en route.
So, uh, listen...
I don't know if Hughes is right
about this whole you
needing a partner thing,
but I have Ivy's
grandson's number.
So he's a tall drink of water,
I hear. War... Not you, Warren.
Please... Please
not you, too, okay?
Can you not try
to set me up, too?
I don't need that from you.
I don't know why
nobody believes me
when I say I'm not
trying to actually win.
Oh, I know why.
Because you don't believe you.
I don't want to win. Yeah.
Because if I do,
the chances of me
becoming like Dixon
are way too high,
and I'm hanging way too
close to that edge already.
Why? Why?
Because you... You got
a little good press?
A-And you actually liked it?
Come on, Montgomery, look...
You could buy a dozen billboards
a-and a Super Bowl ad,
and you still wouldn't be a
fraction as corrupt as that man.
I promise you.
Think I could just do an X?
I don't care.
Bye.
What did radiology say?
Buckle fracture of
the distal radius.
But, you know, just
a splint, so...
Does it still hurt?
I'm fine.
You know, all of humanity
is in pain, so...
I wasn't dismissing
your pain, Jack.
I know.
I was just saying
don't be alone in it.
Don't add pain to your
pain by keeping it
all to yourself when there
are people who love you.
I was saying the abuses
of your childhood
will only define you if you
need everything to end in chaos.
I-I-I was saying,
don't self-destruct!
J-Just get help when the people
you love tell you you need help!
Wow.
I think I'm talking to my wife.
She's not here.
Oh, I know!
That's what it sounds like
when an Italian yells at y...
You don't care.
Nope.
New theory. Mm!
The chief and Beckett have
an illegal crypto pool,
and Bishop found out.
Oh, so maybe Chief is in
cahoots with Bryan in there!
I like it!
Maybe Chief Ross has a
drinking problem herself.
And Maya
threatened to out her
if she didn't fire
Beckett. Right? Yeah, yeah.
Well, if that's true,
how come both Beckett
and the Chief are still around?
Because they both got clean,
except the Chief did it
the right way so you
could never tell.
Not like the captain,
who just, you know,
subbed booze for breath mints.
Okay, guys, seriously, stop.
Oh, God, it's just
a joke, Herrera.
Yeah, it's all good fun.
Except it's not,
because it's real people
and real lives
you're talking about.
Oh, okay.
All right.
You want to know what
Maya said to the Chief?
Oh, you know?
Yeah, you know now?
Of course I do!
Yeah, dude, tell us.
We all knew you knew.
It was because of me.
Bishop went to the Chief
and said that if the Chief
doesn't fire Beckett and
make me captain of 19,
Maya was gonna make a
public stink about the Chief
looking the other way
about Beckett's drinking.
And then, right
after, Gibson left,
so there was room for me...
Yeah, and she didn't
have to fire Beckett
and told him to get clean.
Right. Right.
And the Chief told Beckett that
Maya tried to get him canned.
Mm. I mean, that's kinda
sneaky, and I like it.
And now Beckett has the freshest
breath in the department...
And a serious grudge
against Bishop.
And I-I just found out,
so, look, her... her
plan kinda worked, right?
I'm back.
Yeah, Senior Man. Right.
All right, so just
stop with the...
The rumors and the
gossip. Oh, yeah, yeah.
And let's just focus on getting
Gibson back on his feet,
and let's... let's have each
other's backs, all right?
Yeah. 19! God!
19! Thank you!
Crypto Bro okay?
Concussion.
And gnarly groin injury.
Yeah, he won't be riding
any horses anytime soon.
No, he scrambled his
own eggs by jumping off
that balcony to
avoid getting caught.
Yeah, but, you know, we, uh...
We kind of played
cowboy, though, right?
Fire safety is in our purview.
I agree. The guy's a criminal.
He did this to himself.
I mean, he
preyed on poor people
and the city's lack of
empathy for their needs.
What? Maya: Yeah, in order to
"get his own bag up."
His bag
is all the way up
in his abdominal
cavity right now.
Vic, no!
No! Too soon. Come on! Yeah!
You know who's into crypto?
Bishop, why do I see
your wife around here
more than my own girlfriend?
You have a girlfriend?
He has a girlfriend.
So he gets laid regularly
and is still a dick?
Stop with the
rumors and gossip.
Just ignore him.
Yeah, I'm good at that.
I was just telling Andy that
I saw Jack this morning.
At the hospital? Yeah, at least he
finally got his wrist looked at.
Yeah, he's not doing
well. He... He needs help.
Yeah, that was clear
when we found him drunk,
under a tree, handcuffed
to Eva Vasquez's bed.
I thought he was your friend.
He was, and then he left.
Look, if the department
really takes care of its own,
there's probably, like,
an outreach program...
If you guys are
talking about Gibson,
he already made his own bed
out of handcuffs and greenery.
You can have your girl talk
here, but I need to eat.
Ciao.
And I need a workout.
Maya...
I am sorry Jack is struggling,
but he ditched us.
Yeah, that's kinda cold.
I mean, do we have each
other's backs, or do we not?
I'm dealing with my
own problems right now.
Except you're not really
dealing with them.
I am, in my own way.
Okay.
H-Have you started
looking for therapists?
I'm gonna go get cleaned up.
No.
No me, or no her?
I'm sorry I haven't
done everything
on your timeline, Carina.
I'm living in my
own personal hell.
And my co-workers are
now gossiping about me...
Actually, I fixed that...
And my boss hates me
and treats me worse than
I was treated as a probie.
And now my wife
can't have my back
because she has suddenly
decided that I am unstable.
So, no, I haven't
researched therapists
because I've been kind
of busy with all of that.
I'm sorry. I... I-I-I'll
call Jack again.
Thank you. I'm heading out.
Ready?
Booze up and be
somebody!
Mm. Mm!
Hey, baby.
Hey.
Want a shot?
I'll do one with you. Okay.
What'd you do today?
Whoo-hoo! Ha ha!
Does this mean you can
pull my hair again?
Soon, yeah.
To getting your grip back.
Mm.
Oh, excuse me. Have we met?
You know, that shower
was not nearly as good
as the one this morning.
Yeah, well, I have
better body wash.
That must be it.
Mm.
Mm.
What?
I just... You're not
real. This isn't real.
This is too... perfect.
Come on. No, I'm...
I'm so in love with you.
And we have mind-blowing sex,
and we work together, here,
without friction or
awkwardness or competitiveness.
Those aren't bad
things. I know.
I just feel like
I'm being lulled
into this sense of
comfort and security,
and I'm totally unaware of
this giant pile of bricks
that's about to drop on my
head, so can you just drop it
and let's just get it over with?
Are you a con
artist?
Or in witness protection?
Or, like, a closet
crypto bro or something?
Things are good, so something's
got to be wrong with me?
No, I'm just saying,
look at Carina, okay?
She marries Maya, thinking
she met the perfect match,
and they're living this
picture-perfect life,
and then, turns out, Maya's
just a nasty blackmailer.
Are you
really surprised?
I am just saying,
if there is something
that I should know,
or, like, a shoe that's
about to drop, can...
I thought it was
bricks about to drop.
Okay.
What if nothing's about to drop?
What if I pinch
myself every morning
because I can't believe
how lucky I am to have you?
What if sometimes I
don't think you're real?
Hmm?
What if, last year, when
we broke up and you...
were pregnant...
what if I thought that
was, for sure, the end?
And maybe I cried.
Yeah.
And I thought, "It was
good while it lasted."
Well, here we are. Yeah.
And, uh, I might've
blackmailed Beckett...
Ugh. to taking me
when 23 closed down.
Canoodling in the firehouse!
Oh! Well, I am shocked.
Sorry, Mayor Trav. Yes.
Mayor Trav. How about
a shame ticket for you?
You can have one, too.
I don't need any shame.
That's right.
I feel like I'm having déjà vu.
Yeah, just burning off the day.
Yeah.
Well, listen, I-I just
wanted to say that, um...
Herrera told us
about what you did.
How you went
toe-to-toe with Ross
to get her job back at 19.
That took guts.
But it was the
right thing to do,
'cause, you know,
Herrera, she belongs here.
All right? So, uh,
good looking out.
Yeah.
Honest taxpayers want to know
why the city is allowing
these cryptocurrency criminals
to operate right
under our noses.
Great. Now I agree with him.
See? It's happening already.
As if we don't even exist.
Hey. Ooh!
Hey.
Uh...
Maya is not herself.
Okay. She's...
She's not herself.
She's in self-destruct mode,
and when she goes there,
she brings people with her.
Uh-huh.
If you're sleeping with the
Chief, you need to stop.
I'm not sleeping with the Chief.
I know you. I know you well.
I know what you look
like when you're in love.
I know what you look like
when you're keeping a secret.
I know you, and
I care about you.
You fought hard to
get your career back.
So if you are
playing with fire...
I'm not.
You're walking through
this house smiling
and... and texting
like a teenage girl.
Because I'm on a
dating app. Mm.
So... So why does
Maya think that...
Maya needs to mind
her own business.
I served with the Chief.
I had a connection.
A lifeline with
someone who got it,
who understood what I survived.
And now I can't even have
a conversation with her
without people accusing
me of something.
Robert... No, Andy.
You got it wrong.
It's not happening.
It's not happening.
Hey.
Okay?
I didn't call for you.
Today was tough.
Welcome to firefighting.
Not the job.
You constantly busting my
chops in front of the others.
Bishop, if you're
here to whine...
It's because I tried
to get you fired.
I get it.
I think we're even now.
I want to declare a truce.
Peace offering.
It's your favorite, right?
Good night, Captain.
