You got me the job, remember?
Reggie's reno.
Yeah, I remember.

you were cool with some noise.
Yes, when the sun is up,

- Hey.
- Hey.
How the hell do you work
in here without a door?
It's the one drawback.
Capp's always coming
through here day and night,
couldn't care less what I got going on.
- Huh.
- How are you, Chief?
I'm good. I just, uh,
wanted to let you know
you have been tapped to serve
on a Homeland Security
anti-terrorism task force.
There's a meeting downtown
tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.
What is this task force all about?
No idea, but you'll know more soon.
One of the other liaisons
is coming by in a half hour
to give you a briefing.
Okay, great. I'll be ready.
Do I have my shifts mixed up?
Was I on donut duty?
No, I was. I just forgot.
- Sorry.
- Ah.
Mm.
No, wait.
Can I sit now?
Yeah, you gotta be careful.
Some of these chairs are safety risks.
You didn't test mine when I sat down.
You're not about to break
the CFD shift streak.
- Wait, really?
- Yeah.
Oh, that's fantastic news!
Hey, hey, he's about
to set a new record.
Most consecutive shifts in a row
perfect attendance.
- Hey.
- That's cool, man.
It's not like they
give you a medal for it.
Oh.
You're gonna be the
Cal Ripken, Jr. of the CFD.
You just gotta get past
this shift and one more.
Don't do anything dangerous.
You know we're firefighters,
right, Mouch?

Hey there. Are you looking for me?
I sure am.

[LAUGHING] Why didn't you tell me
when you were coming to town, you jerk?
It was kind of last minute.
Oh, Kelly is gonna be so mad.
He's not even here.
He's still in Alabama?
Yeah.
[SCOFFS] You got me so good.
I thought that you were
a task force liaison
I'm supposed to be meeting with.
I am.
It's an inter-departmental task force
comprising multiple cities.
I'm here representing the Portland FD,
and I'm the one who recommended you
be one of the CFD liaisons.
Nice, a boondoggle.
Got yourself a free trip to Chicago.
Look, come say hi to everyone.
They are going to freak out.
Yeah, it's not a boondoggle, Kidd.
This isn't some boring
conference we're going to.
The reason it came together
so quick is because
it's in response to stuff
that's happening in real time.
What kind of stuff?
I'm not supposed to be talking about it
outside of our sessions.
It's not for general consumption.
You got the whole rundown tomorrow.
But as far as everyone else
is concerned,
let them think it's a boondoggle, okay?
Whoa, hey, you can't just say
"stuff that's happening in real time"
and then not give me any details.
I don't really have
a choice, sorry to say.
Come on.
[SENTIMENTAL MUSIC]
- Hey, guys.
- ALL: Hey!
[LAUGHTER AND CHEERING]
You're telling me that entire time,
you've never missed a single shift?
- I'm not buying it.
- [LAUGHTER]
I'm gonna need to see the
paperwork on this one, Chief.
Yeah, I'll vouch for him. It's legit.
I didn't even realize it myself
until Capp mentioned it.
I just kept coming to work every day.
Incredible.
So you're acting up. How's that?
I had no idea
you officers worked so much.
I thought all you guys
had to do was yell at people.
[LAUGHTER]
You the new guy on Truck?
Sam Carver.
Nice to finally meet you.
Kidd's been telling me all about you.
Mm-hmm, everything.
I tell him everything.
- Uh-oh.
- Oh.
Sylvie.
- Hey, Casey.
- Hey, Violet.
I should have said something, I know,
but it was so last minute.
How are you?
Living the dream, you know?
- You?
- I'm good.
I got roped into this conference
me and Kidd, actually.
It's the HS thing.
Figure it was perfect timing
because I get to be in town
for Cindy's "Sayonara Cancer" party.
How awesome for her.
- Yeah.
- Hear, hear.
She is gonna flip
when she sees you there, Casey.
Oh, that reminds me, we gotta fire up
that oven over at Molly's and make sure
the thing's still working.
All right, Cindy's appetite is back,
and the woman is demanding finger food.
Oh, okay, okay.
My vote, absolutely, pigs in a blanket.
Jalapeño poppers.
Spring cleaning?
Oh, uh, yeah.
It's a little out of hand.
How are the boys?
Great.
Ben got accepted to two schools so far.
We're still waiting
to hear from a few others.
- That's exciting.
- Yeah.
- How have you been?
- Um, pretty good.
Yeah, just busy
with paramedicine and, uh
You know what, I'm just gonna
put this out there.
I've been seeing someone.
He's a really good guy.
That's great.
You don't have to feel weird about that.
I knew what it meant to move on,
and I've been seeing someone too.
Yeah?
Yeah, it's not serious yet,
but it's getting there,
I guess.
Same.
Well, I'm in town till Cindy's party.
I'd love to catch up.
Are you going to Molly's after shift?
Uh, no, I have
I have plans,
but maybe on the later side?
I'll be there all night.
Great.
I'll take this. Boop.
I can't believe you just did that.
Ritter, did you know there's
a citywide noise ordinance
from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.?
How many times do I have to apologize?
I'm missing something.
Violet's neighbor
hired me to do some work.
On my recommendation,
which I would not have given
had I known you'd be waking me
up at all hours of the night.
- 6:00 a.m.?

Just a couple bees stings.
Bees? Tony's allergic to bees.
I'm fine.
That's what we have EpiPens for.
Ah, forget it, Tony. Wait in the squad.
The victim's hand is caught in a pipe.
He pulled it back too fast
when the bees swarmed him,
so it's caught in there pretty good.
Doesn't smoke calm down bees?
I'm not bringing an open
flame into that crawlspace.
Yeah.
You could freeze them out.
My dad kept bees.
It was a retirement hobby.
The smoke thing is true,

Worth a try. Go grab them. All right.

should go down in a few days.
Normally, I'd recommend
some Advil and an ice pack,

Well, it sounds like

Yeah, I thought it would
create some distance,

Rutledge, the guy you had
the little prank thing with?
It was not some little prank thing.
It was one of many battles
in a career-long war.
[SOFT PLAYFUL MUSIC]
I know a lot of youse
are wondering why you're here.
So let me bring someone up
that can give us all
a little background,
someone that a lot of us
already know and respect
because he used to be CFD.
Captain Matt Casey,
it's good to see you back.
[APPLAUSE]
Thanks, Chief Walker.
It's good to be back.
It's true.
I was CFD for a long, long time.
But for the last couple of years,
I've been working out west
with the Portland Fire Department.
As most of you probably know,
the Pacific Northwest
has been the site of several
recent terrorist attacks
on the electrical grid
by unknown actors.
Two weeks ago, I was incident commander
on a fire in an abandoned building
just outside Portland.
During overhaul, we discovered
suspicious documents,
so we got the FBI involved.
Turns out the building was connected
to an anti-government organization.
The evidence we found
suggested they may be planning
infrastructure attacks
in several major cities
across the U.S., including
right here in Chicago.
Now, the folks at Homeland Security
are telling me it's not
a specific threat as of yet.
They want to establish a network
of first responder liaisons
in all the target cities
to help disseminate intel as it arises.
Here's Chris McManus from DHS
to explain how it'll work.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Blake, I'm so glad you came.
Wow, you look so you're so grown up.
Well, it's been 16 years, so.
It has.
There's a nice place next door
if you wanna grab some brunch.
I'm not hungry.
Okay, well
You know, actually, like,
kind of on a schedule.
So, uh, why are you here?
Well, it's sort of a long story,
but I guess the main thing is,
is I'm trying to get back on track.
Yeah, trying to get back
to the me before the fire.
I went down a bad path.
There was lots of drinking, drugs,
things that I am not proud of,
but I have been clean
for a few months now.
I'm glad to hear that.
Yeah, I'm in a program,
trying to make amends.
[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]
So I'm just a box to tick?
No!
Oh, no, no, Blake, it's not like that.
Blake, I have regretted leaving you
every day since I did.
But when it happened,
when when your mom died,
my sister, I kind of lost my mind.
I didn't know what to do.
I was so scared.
I knew you were safe staying
with your Uncle Carmine.
I didn't I didn't know Uncle Carmine.
But my Aunt Lacey?
She took me to the movies.
She sat with me in church
where we giggled
and we drew cartoons and
I knew her.
I just thought it was better
if I stayed away.
Stayed away? You disappeared.
You disappeared on me.
I lost everyone.
And you disappeared.
I was 23.
- I was a kid.
- No, no, I was a kid.
All right, I guess you you
said everything you needed to.
Wait, wait, just wait.
Here, just take this.
There's a storage unit
next to your old house.
I came back to clean it out.
I was hoping you'd help me, but it's
You should look through it.
There's lots of your mom's
old stuff there.
I am so sorry, Blake.

Those weenies are a choking hazard.
Here's one on the house
for the keynote speaker, Mr. VIP.
Yeah, yeah.
I am serious.
Listen, you're obviously
making big impressions
on important people.
What I don't get is why you think anyone
would want me involved in this thing.
The DHS guys need first
responders they can trust,
and I can't think
of anyone more trustworthy.
- For real?
- Mm-hmm.
Oh, man, do we miss you.
I miss you guys too.
- You know what would be fun?

Oh, Dylan? Yeah.
- I know all about him.
- Mm.
I heard you got somebody
keeping you busy out there too.
What's her name?
Ah, it's not that serious.
Who said it had to be serious

How about I swing by and have a look?
Thank you.
It's better not to risk it

Uh, it's family stuff, I think.
I thought his family wasn't around.
What's the story there?
Uh
There was a fire when he was a kid
at 12, I think.
Yeah.
And the fire company that responded,
they were able to pull him out,
but everyone else
mom, dad, little sister
He lost them all?
And the guy grows up
to be a firefighter.

If we if we get a call, I will rally.
The idea is to give
your firefighters a leg up
in case they respond
to one of these attacks
or maybe even get a chance
to prevent one in progress.
Is there a time frame
on this kind of threat?
I don't think so.
It's all pretty vague.
I'm hoping it's just
empty bluster, but

sort of people are capable of.

Captain Matt Casey,
it's good to see you back.

Thanks, Chief Walker.
It's good to be back.
It's true.
I was CFD for a long, long time.
But for the last couple of years,
I've been working out west
with the Portland Fire Department.
As most of you probably know,
the Pacific Northwest
has been the site of several
recent terrorist attacks
on the electrical grid
by unknown actors.
Two weeks ago, I was incident commander
on a fire in an abandoned building
just outside Portland.
During overhaul, we discovered
suspicious documents,
so we got the FBI involved.
Turns out the building was connected
to an anti-government organization.
The evidence we found
suggested they may be planning
infrastructure attacks
in several major cities
across the U.S., including
right here in Chicago.
Now, the folks at Homeland Security
are telling me it's not
a specific threat as of yet.
They want to establish a network
of first responder liaisons
in all the target cities
to help disseminate intel as it arises.
Here's Chris McManus from DHS
to explain how it'll work.

Yeah, come see for yourself.
We got a muster in June.
Hey, that save back there
was something special.
No, I was just doing
what had to be done.
Yeah, but not a lot of people
could have done that.
Not a lot of firefighters
could have done that.
You're getting to be
one hell of a smoke-eater.
Thanks, Captain.
Hmm, the Gallo I know would have
post-gamed that call all the way home.
We made the save, nothing to post-game.
It messed me up when
my brother resurfaced.
I was distracted at work,
couldn't sleep,
said and did things I regret.
I wasn't myself.
Ritter and Violet told me
you might be in a similar boat.
[PENSIVE MUSIC]
My aunt, out of nowhere,
wants to make nice
after all these years.
I've been angry for a really long time.
That doesn't just go away.
I get it,
but not everyone
tries to fix their mistakes.
If she really wants
to be a part of your life,
that's not something
to take for granted.

So how do we make this official?
I'll get the word out
through my union buddies.
They'll put it in the monthly bulletin.
But I might swing by 40,
break the news to Rutledge myself.
I cannot wait to see his face.
How should we celebrate?
Sleep and a tub of antacid.
Oh, hey, 7:00.
Get ready to rage.
It's sayonara, cancer.
Cindy has requested
a specialty margarita menu
and Blondie on the speakers.
Hey.
You stay home, all right? Rest.
Cindy will understand.
Yeah, no, I'll be there.
Oh, all right.
Yes!
- Squadzilla!
- My guy.
What are you supposed to do
with the with the red wire?
Carver didn't label a red wire.
And you don't have a red wire.
[TOOL WHIRRING]
If you had a ceiling fan.
That's what would power the motor,
but with this light, you don't need it.
Oh.
Guess I really didn't
need your help after all.
[CHUCKLES]
How about this?
I'll hold it up there
while you screw it in.
That way, you can still say
that you installed it.
Fine. [CHUCKLES]
Here we go.
Seager must be bummed with you spending
all your extra time here.
If it were me, I'd be
pretty jealous of Reggie.
No, that's long over.
Oh?
Yeah, it was just a short, casual thing.
No jealousy there.
Huh.
There's one screw left.
I think I got it from here.
Are you sure? It's no bother.
Yeah, no, no, I got it, thanks.
You should probably get back to work.
[CHUCKLES] All right.
See you tonight at the thing?
- Yeah, absolutely.
- Nice.

Yeah, I promised Dylan that
I would meet him at his bar.
It was really good to see you
back in action at 51, Matt,
even if it was just for
one shift and as a candidate.

Safe travels tomorrow.
Well, it was good
to see you, too, Sylvie.
Real good.

Sorry, Carver, no bourbon tonight,
strictly margaritas only
Cindy's orders.
Fine, I'll do whatever Gallo's doing.
All right, two sweet

So I've been thinking about it.
You know what?
That save was really awesome.
- There he is.
- No, I just had it in my head.
I couldn't stop thinking,
I can't let go, I can't let go.
And then Casey comes out of nowhere
