9-1-1: Lone Star (2020) s02e09 Episode Script
Saving Grace
1
I don't want any surprises
out there today.
"9-1-1 Lone Star", all new Mondays.
And check out our other Fox
shows "9-1-1", "Prodigal Son",
and "The Resident", only on Fox.
This is a bad idea, Cal.
This is a mint condition
'91 chick magnet.
It'd be a crime for it to just
sit here all summer long.
Crime is gonna be us driving it.
Would you stop being such a baby?
Just imagine us
cruising the strip in this,
past all those high school girls?
It'll be so fly.
Until they see we're
a couple of 12-year-olds.
You look at least 14, and
I read at an 11th grade level.
So that's a problem.
- This is so cool. We actually did it.
- Yeah.
Gotta be a wild one
Speed limit's 35. You're doing 29.
You'll be doing zero
when I dump your ass
on the side of the road.
Gonna keep it moving wild
Gonna keep it swinging, baby
I'm a real wild child
Yeah, I'm a real wild one
And I like a wild fun
And the world gone crazy,
everything seems hazy
Dude, you're just gonna
let him do that to us?
He's challenging our manhood.
We don't got no manhood, dummy!
Yeah, but the girls in
the back don't know that.
Evening, ladies.
Hell yeah! Let's dust 'em.
Whoa!
- That's right, son!
- Whoa! Yeah!
Eat our dust!
Yeah! Way to go!
Did you see that?!
Yeah, let's go!
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
They're coming up from behind us.
Step on it. Step on it!
Ooh, yeah, I'm a wild one
Why are you slowing down?
Damn it, Cal!
Gonna keep it swinging, baby
I'm a real wild child
Son.
Dad.
It's all my fault.
Talk about this when we get home.
Judd?
Judd, you ready, baby?
I'm two buttons away.
- Ooh, Lordy, it smells good in here.
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, Daddy, we're about
to step out the door.
Well, step back in.
There's bad weather coming through.
Now, Dad, don't you even start.
It's your birthday, you just
got your second vaccination,
and you haven't seen your
son in almost a year now.
All right, we're coming.
But you know the first
question your father's
gonna ask us when we get there.
Be about when we're gonna be ready
to give him some grandbabies?
- Uh, that's the one.
- Yes, I know.
How you gonna dance your
way out of it this time?
I was thinking maybe we don't
dance out of it this time.
I think it's about time
we give him some.
Judson Ryder.
Judd? Judd? Judd, wake up, sweetie.
Judd?
All right, Harkes, kill that siren.
What does it mean when you hear a siren?
Pull over to the side of the road!
Sure, but what it really,
really means is
that help is on the way. Yeah?
Who wants to take a
guess at why we call
this one the ladder truck?
- 'Cause there's a ladder.
- What is this? This the honors class?
Actually, we don't have
honors class in Bible Camp.
Maybe you should.
Right here, I'd like to introduce
you to Firefighter Garrity.
He's wearing all of the protective gear.
Now, this is how we stay safe in a fire.
Helmet protects the old
dome, steel-toed boots
ensures we keep ten little piggies,
and this mask lets us breathe
through heavy smoke.
Okay, so, anybody have
any questions today? Sir.
Why did you become a firefighter?
Because he didn't want
to write a college essay.
- Or graduate high school.
- Ah.
Well, 'cause it's the
best job in the world.
There's nothing nothing
better than saving lives.
Anybody else? Anybody? No?
I guess that about wraps it up.
So one last time if
there's an emergency,
what number do you call?
911!
Boom! Very good.
Over here, cowboys and cowgirls.
Thank you for having us.
May I leave these with you?
We run a prayer hotline at
the church, for those in crisis
or who just need a friendly ear.
I strike you as somebody
that needs praying for?
All you brave men here,
given what you see every day,
might be nice to have a number
other than 911 to call.
It's tough to argue that.
- God bless you.
- God bless you. Thanks so much.
Oh!
Oh! Gotta go, gotta go!
Guys. This way.
- Captain Vega. Good to see you.
- Captain Braxton. Hey, Juddy.
- What's up, T?
- What do we know?
Neighbors called 911.
They said they heard someone
yelling for help inside.
- Ryder, take the door.
- Yup, you got it, Cap.
Ooh! Watch that!
Hey, coming in!
Hello? Austin EMS.
In here! Dining room!
- Oh, thank you for coming.
- Hey.
We're here to help you now. I'm Tommy.
- What's your name?
- Leigh-Anne.
- How did you fall?
- How many old ladies
does it take to change a light bulb?
Oh, I see you got jokes.
- Where does it hurt?
- My shoulder and back.
Okay. Let's see. All right.
I think you may have
fractured your shoulder.
We're gonna put a C-collar
on you, just to be safe.
Is there anyone you'd like us to call?
There's no one.
All right. Firefighters,
can you help me get this
nice lady on the gurney?
- Judd, grab her legs.
- Yup.
- I got one.
- No!
No! G-Get him away from me!
Keep your hands off me! I
don't want him in my house!
Get out! Get out!
Get out!
- Just leave me here.
- That's not an option.
One, two, three.
Okay.
Oh, this is so cool.
We actually did it.
Hell yeah! Let's dust 'em!
Son!
Come on!
Yeah!
Judd, come on, come on!
Cal, I'm sorry, brother.
I'm so sorry.
Prayer in Crisis, how
may I help you today?
Hello?
Hello?
Well, you just take your
time. Uh I'm right here.
I apologize.
I don't even know why
I dialed this number.
You want to tell me your name?
I'd just make something up.
That's fair enough. How
about I call you John?
That's as good as any.
You said you don't know why
you made this call tonight.
Do you think maybe it's,
uh, because you were led to?
Hey, look, I'm sorry.
I thought maybe I was in some kind of
a confessional mood, but,
I-I ain't really much of a talker
- when it comes right down to it.
- That's okay.
You don't have to say anything
if you don't want to.
God knows what's on your heart anyway.
Can't hide from God.
Yeah. He surely sees everything.
Can't even hide from yourself
in the end, although
I thought I could.
I've been doing a pretty fair job of it
for about ten years, you know.
Hiding behind the uniform
and pretending that that
uniform was me, but
but it ain't.
You in the military, John?
Oh, no. Hell no. I ain't
brave enough for that.
I'm a firefighter.
Well, I think most people
would consider that quite brave.
They'd be right mostly, but
no, I ain't no hero.
And today I got seen.
My uniform gave me away. It gave me away
'cause I had my stupid
name stitched right on it.
I don't understand.
My fire company got sent
out on this call today,
and the lady we were supposed to help
turned out to be, uh,
someone I used to know,
and someone who I hurt
a long time ago.
So long ago that I forgot about it,
but, uh, she didn't.
And she can't.
Well, maybe God was
giving you an opportunity
to make amends.
Well, you know what, that's
a piss-poor opportunity,
if it is one, 'cause there
ain't gonna be no amends,
'cause that woman would
just as soon spit in my face
as forgive me.
Well, then, maybe you should
let her spit in your face.
- Oh, that's really your advice?
- It was to give her
an opportunity to forgive you.
But also
be willing to be spit on.
It's sure as hell no
more than I deserve.
It's no more than any
of us deserve, John.
"Let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in thy righteousness.
You protect the faithful and reward
the good-doers as long
as they trust in you".
That's Psalms 31.
None of us are perfect.
It's by grace that we're saved.
And my name's not John, it's Judd.
Okay. Well, you sure
you're not making that up?
- No, ma'am.
- Okay.
Well, it's very nice to meet you, Judd.
My name's Grace.
Well, now who's making it up?
Judd. Judd!
Judd, can you hear me,
babe? Please wake up.
Judd!
Baby, wake up. I need you to wake up.
Judd, we were in an accident.
We're in the river, babe.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
We're gonna be all right.
I'm gonna knock that window out,
we're gonna swim to the surface.
It'll be easy-peasy, okay?
Judd, my legs are stuck.
I can't move.
That's not gonna work.
Come on, this could work. It'll
work if I can get it to move.
- Judd
- Just one inch!
Wait, it's
Judd, it's time to go.
- I ain't going without you.
- Judd,
I will always be by your side.
- Grace, Grace, Grace, you're damn right.
- Oh, please.
You're gonna be right by my side because
- wherever you are, that's where I am, too.
- Oh, Judd
And that's the deal, right? Right?
That's the deal, right to the end.
Judd, you have to go.
I can't move!
You have to go.
Prayer in Crisis,
- how can I help you today?
- Is this Grace?
- It is.
- It's Judd.
- Uh, we spoke the other night.
- I remember.
You sound better.
I'm-I'm feeling a little
better, taking your advice.
I'm fixing to either make
amends or get spit at.
Well, I'm pleased to hear it.
I just wanted to thank you.
I think you got a real gift,
and, uh, I appreciate you
sharing it with me.
Well, it's my pleasure.
And if you ever need me again,
you have the number, okay?
Careful now, 'cause I just
might take you up on that.
Prayer in Crisis, how may I help you?
Hey, it's me again.
Hey, Judd, how you doing?
Oh, I don't know, I-I think
I'm feeling kind of blue.
Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
- Um, did something happen?
- No.
It's just more of, like,
a general malaise, I guess.
- A general malaise?
- Well, now, look,
the-the truth is, uh
I think I just wanted
to hear your voice.
Judd, this is a prayer line.
I know. And I just prayed
that you'd pick up.
And, uh, that means it's working, right?
Prayer in Crisis,
how can I help you today?
Howdy, it's me again.
Howdy? I didn't know
people still said howdy.
Oh, yeah, no, no, no,
we still say howdy.
Prayer in Crisis. This is Brother Bob.
How can I help you? Hello?
Prayer in Crisis, how can
- Prayer in Crisis.
- That's better!
Judd, did you just call here
and hang up on Brother Bob
- and Miss Patricia?
- I did, because
I'm a sinner,
and I'm gonna need extra prayer tonight.
Next time, Judd, just ask for me.
I went by Mrs. Kittner's house
today, and still no sign.
Well, listen, you can
only do what you can do.
You think it's okay to eat pulled pork
that's been in the
refrigerator for a week?
Judd, that's not really
- my area of expertise.
- I'm going for it.
I think I had my first sighting today.
- She talk to you?
- No.
Well, hey, at least she
didn't scream for you
- to get off her property.
- Well, that's progress.
Ryder, we dealing you in or not?
No, I'm gonna have to
take y'all's money later.
Since when does he take a
phone call over our money?
Cal couldn't have been
more than 4'5 " or 4'6",
you know, 90 pounds soaking wet.
But he never backed down from a bully.
He had the biggest heart
of anybody I ever met.
God, I miss that kid.
You look thirsty.
Much obliged, ma'am.
Would you like to come inside?
Yes, ma'am, I would
like that very much so.
Prayer in Crisis, how
can I help you tonight?
Uh, is Grace in?
- Uh, no, she's not.
- Okay, well,
do you know when her next shift is?
I got-I got something important
I gotta talk to her about.
Well, she doesn't
have a next shift, I'm afraid.
Grace doesn't volunteer here anymore.
Oh, no, man.
Now she's just being mean.
I mean, she already hit two balls
on a back-corner bank shot;
how's that even possible?
The secret is a steady hand, gents.
- Oh, boy.
- Where the hell you been?
You get lost on your way
back from the can or what?
Oh, no, I bet you he was out there
talking with his secret
phone buddy again.
Why don't you just shut
up and miss your shot?
Okay.
Okay, listen, y'all
didn't ask for a toast
I mean, you didn't ask for
But I'm gonna give one anyway.
God said to build each other up,
and I promise, that is what
you guys have done for me.
I love y'all, I couldn't have
done it without you, truly.
You're the one that did the all-nighters
to get that 4.0.
Cheers, guys.
Juddy, is there a particular reason
you look like you just got
hit by a lightning bolt?
Which one? Uh, the one in the tank top?
No, no
Uh-oh.
In the flowers? Okay, okay.
- All right, come on, let's go.
- What do you mean, let's go?
- What are you doing? Come on. Let's go.
- Come on.
Hey, girl my friend likes.
Hi. I'm so sorry to interrupt, ladies,
but I'd like to introduce
you to my friend.
Hi.
Judd, speak.
Howdy. I'm Judd.
Hi
Judd, uh I'm Grace.
You're so tall.
You are so beautiful.
Ask the girl to dance, Judd.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I
- Go.
- Yeah.
What are the chances?
Honestly, Judd, I'm not sure
chance, uh, had much to do with it.
I don't think so, either.
So, uh, you don't work for
the prayer hotline no more.
Uh, I don't.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm sorry. Uh
I just I didn't know
how to tell you, I guess.
Oh, no, no, no, you
don't owe me nothing.
You're not gonna believe
this, but I just tried
to call you not ten minutes ago.
- No way.
- Mm-hmm.
For what?
I didn't get spit on.
She forgave me.
Ah.
Judd, that's the most wonderful
thing I've heard ever.
You changed my life.
So, you know, it's got me thinking
if that's the sort of miracle
that you can work over the phone,
imagine what you could
do, uh, in person.
Judd, the reason I quiet is, uh,
is 'cause I'm moving.
Moving where?
Georgetown.
They have a graduate
school for global policy,
and I found out I got in.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Yeah, I-I knew you was a smart cookie.
- Oh
So, how, uh how'd Friday be, then?
You're not hearing the
words I'm saying, sir.
I leave at the end of the summer.
It doesn't make sense to
start anything new right now.
I feel like we already
started something.
I feel like I'm dreaming, Judd.
If I'm dreaming, I
don't want to wake up.
Judd?
Where am I?
Where am I?
West Park Memorial.
There was an accident.
Where's Grace? Where's my wife?
Cap, where's my girl at?
It was six minutes, T.
She was pinned underwater
for six minutes
before Swiftwater Rescue got to us.
I know.
You can get brain damage in four.
You can, you can.
But there have been people
that have been under for seven,
even eight minutes without
permanent brain damage.
The water was cold.
That worked in her favor.
I couldn't get her out of there, man.
I wasn't strong enough.
- I couldn't save her, I couldn't lift her.
- Judd
I got spooked.
I saw the-the lights coming
and I shouldn't have swerved
the truck into a river.
Judd!
Do you really think either one of you
would be coming out of this better
after a head-on collision?
Is she coming out of it?
Listen to me. Listen. Look at me.
Okay, we have to be
positive about this, right?
All right.
She's alive.
She's a fighter.
She laid you out.
- With one punch.
- One punch.
Don't you dare underestimate our girl.
I never have.
No, I'm serious. Smarty-pants here
is about to be taking courses
that I couldn't even pronounce
without getting my tongue
tied up in a knot.
First of all, he is exaggerating, y'all.
No, no, I'm not.
What's-what's the one?
The Globalization
of Emerging Intercourse Relations.
I'm pretty sure that's not right.
The Globalization of Emerging
Intersocietal Relations.
I mean, I was impressed
12 syllables ago.
T's right. This is, this is impressive.
It's Georgetown, right?
Bill Clinton went there.
LBJ went there.
Tommy, can we talk about
something else now, please?
Aw, look oh, look how cute she is,
trying to avoid the spotlight.
Well, then, maybe we should just
swing the spotlight over this way.
- What?
- Let's go.
- Okay.
- What do you say, my love?
Charles.
Uh, okay okay.
Um, well, all right, then.
Uh, guess what.
I got myself knocked up.
Tommy, stop it.
Y'all are pregnant for real?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- For real?
- Oh, my gosh!
- Yo.
Come here. Come here, come here.
Oh, my God.
I know, it's crazy right?
Oh, hey, I hope you don't mind,
but you might be getting a phone call.
I put you down as a reference.
For what?
Well with some firehouses in D.C.
D.C.? So you're going with her?
Oh, no, no. I'm just
kicking the tires for now.
So you haven't told Grace?
There's nothing to tell yet. You know?
Plus, it's, like,
there's a very fine line
between romantic and creepy.
We've only been doing
this for two months.
Well, she looks pretty smitten to me.
It's summer, man. Everybody's smitten.
What about you?
You sure you're just not smitten?
No, sir.
I'm in love.
She looks like an angel when she sleeps.
Yes.
Since she was a baby.
Y'all really did give
her the perfect name.
The second this girl
came into the world,
you could just feel the
Spirit radiating off of her.
Yes, Lord.
Always so sweet,
never thinking about
herself, always others.
Yeah, that'd be my wife.
Food's here.
There he is.
- Hey, Judd.
- You look good.
How you feeling?
Uh, I feel like-like my
truck that got hit by a river.
Oh, Cap.
Good to see you, man. Oh, well, oh.
Look at all this good grub
y'all brought, too. Wow.
We didn't really know what to get,
so we sort of got everything.
That-that's all right. I'm, you know,
I'm in the mood for everything,
so, wow.
Thank you. I'll tell you
what, I'm gonna get, uh
This is Gracie's favorite, so
I'm gonna cut a little piece
for Grace.
So that, uh
when she, when she,
when she wakes up,
just she's probably
gonna have a big appetite.
So I'll just keep it here
Just
I'll just, uh
Thank you guys for being,
for being here, you know.
For the both of us, thank you very much.
We doing a group one?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right, we got you.
- Thank you.
- We got to do the same for our own.
Thank you.
Hey, Reyes.
Hey, Banks. Carter. What
are you guys doing here?
Had to interview some drunk who plowed
his SUV into a convenience
store this morning.
Look like the same guy may have ran
some folks off the
Lamar Bridge last night.
- Wait, he's here?
- Yeah. Banged up his leg.
Other than that, nothing
else, not a scratch.
Drunks, right? All right,
see you around.
Hey. You good?
I'm g No, I'm good.
I'm good, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's in the Lord's hands now.
He knows what he's doing.
Yes, sir.
- Hey, Judd.
- Hey, Mr. Williams.
Uh, I'm supposed to
pick up Grace for a date.
Yeah, she's, uh, still getting ready.
Come on in.
You know, my wife is gonna hate
that she missed you.
- Here.
- Thank you.
You know, she's, uh, she's
grown quite fond of you, Judd.
Well, we both have.
We can tell how much you
care about our daughter.
Well, I mean, I-I know it
ain't it hasn't been,
uh, more than, well,
I guess, a few months,
but, uh, I love her, sir.
Well, I guess we finally found something
that we both have in common.
Amen. How about that?
I appreciate it. Oh, man.
Mmm.
Holy smokes, that's good tea.
Yeah, that's my
great-granddaddy's recipe.
You know, he was a, uh,
sharecropper in South Carolina.
That man broke his back every day
so that his children could be
the first in his line to
finish elementary school.
Two generations later,
my mother marched in
Selma with Dr. King.
To fight for my future.
- That's an incredible legacy.
- Yes, it is.
Yes, it is, and I've spent
every day of my life
trying to live up to it.
My question to you, son,
is
what are you willing to
sacrifice for my daughter?
Whatever it takes.
I was hoping you would say that.
You see, for generations,
this family has been marching
toward its destiny.
But I'm afraid
that that can't happen
if you're a part of it.
Okay.
Uh
What it comes down to
is I am the wrong color.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I'm not talking about the
color of your skin, Judd.
I'm talking about the
color of your collar.
Now, don't get me wrong.
I admire what you do, Judd.
But Gracie is special.
I mean, she has a chance to
go out and change the world.
I-In ways that my great-granddaddy
couldn't have even imagined.
She's meant for great things, Judd.
Big things.
Yeah. All I want is what's best for her.
And that's why I have no doubt
you'll do the right thing.
Hey, y'all.
Hey, there she is.
Well, ain't you looking beautiful?
Ugh, Daddy. You say that every time.
Judd, I'm sorry I'm
running a little late.
No, it was worth the wait. Uh
Your daddy's right.
- You're an absolute vision, Grace.
- Thank you.
First one in, last one out
All right.
What Well, what's your hurry, cowboy?
Well, I mean, we're here, ain't we?
Well, the dance floor's
not going anywhere.
No, I know, but, you know,
your, uh, your dance card's
only got a couple dances
left on it before you got to go, so
Hmm. What would you say if I told you
we could have as many dances we wanted?
Well, how's that?
Well, I think maybe I don't
leave next month, Judd.
I think maybe I stay here.
What about Georgetown?
I don't think Georgetown is for me.
- Gracie Gr
- No, well,
before you say anything,
so there's no confusion,
I've been thinking about
this for a while, Judd.
Before you and I even met.
I mean, but why-why
would you want to give up
a great opportunity like that?
You was, you was gonna
go make a difference.
Well, who says I can't make
a difference right here?
I watch you do it. Every
single day. And Tommy.
Yeah, me and Tommy
didn't get into a school
with a three percent acceptance rate.
I understand, Judd,
but you weren't the
only person that I met
while working those phones.
Judd, I really feel like I met myself.
Talking to people and connecting
You're gonna go to Georgetown.
Okay? You're gonna be something.
And, uh, you know,
that's that. That's
That's that.
Judd, I love you.
I loved you before I met you.
And I happen to know
that you love me, too.
You're wrong. I'm
I don't believe you.
Look at me, in my eyes,
and tell me that you don't love me.
I don't love you.
Okay?
- Okay
- Hang on a minute, please.
Will you let me just take you home?
Well, I don't know what makes
you think I'm going home.
I came here to dance.
And that's exactly what I'm-a do.
You can go home, sir.
Garrity, ladder the building,
start ventilating the roof.
Ryder and Harkes, run a two-and-a-half
- to the nearest hydrant.
- You got it, Cap.
All right.
Unbelievable.
Where the hell do
people like this get off?
Yeah, some people think
that their stuff don't stink.
- Been going around.
- What you mean, going around?
Don't worry about it,
let's just run this line.
Yeah, but how you gonna run it?
Let me grab that from you.
I'll take care of that.
Hey! Hey!
That's my car!
Oh, this your car?
You got to be kidding me.
You parked it in front
of a fire hydrant,
so the police will send
you your ticket, all right?
What the hell?
You could have at least
let me open the door.
Yeah, I guess I could have.
I want your name, you son of
a bitch. You're paying for this.
I tell you what, why don't
you call my office, okay?
You got a pen? The number's 911.
- I'm calling my lawyer.
- Good, you're gonna need a lawyer
if you don't get out of my way.
'Cause if you interfere
with public duty,
that's a felony in Texas.
Enjoy your power trip now.
Because tomorrow, when you wake up,
you'll still be a sad little fireman.
Hey, hey, hey!
Easy, easy!
- Break it up.
- I'm good, good, good.
I'm good. Y'all got him?
Oh, man, man, man.
Me? Me? It's me.
Um, I'm sorry you had to
come all the way out here.
No, that's exactly what I
wanted to do with my day.
Spend some quality time with
my son and his bail bondsman.
What the hell were you thinking about?
I was I-I was trying to fight a fire.
I didn't know I had to
fight some douchebag, too.
You know, the only thing smart
about you anymore is that mouth.
Do you realize that you could've
flushed your whole life
down the toilet bowl?
Oh, police told me that the other guy
ain't gonna press charges
'cause he'd be facing a felony.
What about your Cap? And
those guys you work with?
It'll be a month of KP and latrine duty
and then and I mean,
they'll get over it.
You think the only one you're hurting
doing all this is yourself, don't you?
Well, unless you
straighten your ass out,
you're gonna hurt somebody real bad,
and I'm not gonna be there
to tell you it's okay.
Oh, uh, hey.
Hey, man, I think you're
in the wrong room?
I think I got the wrong building.
I bet neither one of us
expected to find ourselves
in the hospital today, right?
But then we both got your
dumb ass to thank for that.
All right, you shouldn't be in here
If you touch the phone,
if you cry out, I'm-a snap your wrist.
- Okay. Okay.
- Got it?
- Okay. Yes.
- What's your name?
It's, uh, it's-it's Caleb.
It's C-Caleb, Caleb Wilson.
- Caleb?
- Yeah.
I heard you plowed through a
convenience store this morning.
What-what were you gonna pick up?
What? What? What do you,
what do you mean? Uh
You know, at the store?
They got things to buy?
- What'd you hope to buy?
- Oh, yeah, um
- What? Baby wipes or a soda?
- Ow, ow, no.
- No, I was just, I was gonna get
- Lotto tickets?
I was gonna get, I was just
gonna get, like, a churro.
- And a hot chocolate.
- You got a sweet tooth?
- Yeah.
- Me, too.
Let me ask you, though, Caleb.
How-how, how is it that a man
could run two people off a road,
and then just leave them to drown
and then wake-wake up
and think to himself,
"I think I'd like a churro"?
All right, listen, man, listen, um,
I don't even, I don't even, like,
I don't even, like, remember yesterday.
You know, like, the truck
or the river or-or nothing.
I'm sorry, I have a problem.
I have, I have a problem.
- You have a problem. Yeah.
- Yes, I have a problem.
You do have a problem.
My wife Grace is the
best person I've known.
Her life's work is saving lives.
Her life's work is saving people.
- Yeah.
- If she saved one life per shift
and that's conservative
then by my estimation
she's saved 2,250 lives.
- She saved 2,251
- Mm. Mm-hmm.
if you want to count me.
Right? Which is a life she's
saved numerable times.
So
if a piece of trash like
you gets to snuff her out
and live, what does that mean?
What does that mean?
- What does
- Judd, that's enough. Let him go.
Why? This is what he deserves.
Because Gracie's awake, son.
She's awake, Judd.
And the first person
she asked for was you.
She needs you, son.
Hey. Hey, hey. Hey.
Grace just saved your life, too.
She just saved your life, too.
Hey, girl.
- Hello, my love.
- Hey.
You gave us a scare there for a minute.
You know I wasn't going anywhere, Judd.
Wherever you are,
that's where I'm-a be.
That's the deal, right?
That's the deal.
Yeah.
Mrs. Ryder, I think you might be
the most popular patient I've ever had.
Your well-wishers are becoming
a fire hazard out in the hall.
If there's a fire, they're
who you want here.
How are you feeling?
A little foggy, uh,
but just mostly tired.
That's understandable. You've
been through quite a bit.
Doc, I can't feel my legs.
That's entirely normal.
But the feeling will come back.
In a few days, we'll start
talking about physical therapy.
Okay, but that's it, right?
Mend-mend a couple bones?
- She's good, that's it?
- Yes.
They both seem to be in perfect health.
You said, "they"?
I did.
Mrs. Ryder, you're pregnant.
Can I can I kiss my wife?
- She's your wife.
- Yes, she is. Yes, she is.
I love you, girl.
- I love you.
- I love you, Judd.
pray for us sinners now
and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Hey, y'all.
- Hey.
- Hey.
How's my favorite little girl doing?
She's doing good, Daddy.
She's doing real good.
Then how come you're crying?
Oh, hell, son.
'Cause he gonna be a granddaddy.
What?
Well, happy birthday.
Congratulations. Come on, 126.
Bring it in here.
Howdy.
You're here to see the Vegas, I take it?
- Y How did you know that?
- She just had twins.
Oh, the Yes.
Well, they're not quite
ready for visitors,
but you can take a seat.
Thank you.
Twins.
- Something, huh?
- Mm-hmm.
That's a couple of somethings.
How you been, Grace?
I've been good.
How you been?
Good. Getting by.
Tommy, uh, Tommy said
you'd didn't end up
going to Georgetown.
I told you that myself, Judd.
I guess you meant it, too.
Yeah. Guess I did.
How'd your daddy take it?
My daddy's not the boss of me, Judd.
Right.
You got a tattoo.
Uh, I did. "Psalm 31".
So that, uh
so I can remember
what really matters.
"Let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in thy righteousness".
That's the one.
Hmm.
I can't say that I don't
feel ashamed, though.
Ashamed of what, Judd?
I lied to you.
I looked you in your eye,
I lied to your face.
Yeah, you did.
I wish I hadn't.
Oh, Tommy said, uh, you got a new job?
Yeah, I did. I'm, um
I'm training to be a 911 dispatcher.
Well, I think that's wonderful.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Are you seeing anyone?
Uh
Yeah, I got myself a fella, Judd.
That's good.
Mm-hmm.
That's a lucky man.
Yeah, he is.
He's too dumb to know it, though.
Or stubborn.
I'm not sure which.
All I know is that he hasn't
picked up a phone in six months.
Hey, you two.
- Oh, boy
- Hey.
Oh
Mm.
How would you two like to come
back and meet your goddaughters?
You said our goddaughters?
So these people are using
the birth of their babies
to play matchmaker.
These people are very, very sneaky.
I should've warned you about that.
Diabolical.
Are we ready?
Are you ready?
I've been ready.
Then let's do this.
See "911 Lone Star".
Don't miss all new episodes
Mondays on Fox.
I don't want any surprises
out there today.
"9-1-1 Lone Star", all new Mondays.
And check out our other Fox
shows "9-1-1", "Prodigal Son",
and "The Resident", only on Fox.
This is a bad idea, Cal.
This is a mint condition
'91 chick magnet.
It'd be a crime for it to just
sit here all summer long.
Crime is gonna be us driving it.
Would you stop being such a baby?
Just imagine us
cruising the strip in this,
past all those high school girls?
It'll be so fly.
Until they see we're
a couple of 12-year-olds.
You look at least 14, and
I read at an 11th grade level.
So that's a problem.
- This is so cool. We actually did it.
- Yeah.
Gotta be a wild one
Speed limit's 35. You're doing 29.
You'll be doing zero
when I dump your ass
on the side of the road.
Gonna keep it moving wild
Gonna keep it swinging, baby
I'm a real wild child
Yeah, I'm a real wild one
And I like a wild fun
And the world gone crazy,
everything seems hazy
Dude, you're just gonna
let him do that to us?
He's challenging our manhood.
We don't got no manhood, dummy!
Yeah, but the girls in
the back don't know that.
Evening, ladies.
Hell yeah! Let's dust 'em.
Whoa!
- That's right, son!
- Whoa! Yeah!
Eat our dust!
Yeah! Way to go!
Did you see that?!
Yeah, let's go!
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
They're coming up from behind us.
Step on it. Step on it!
Ooh, yeah, I'm a wild one
Why are you slowing down?
Damn it, Cal!
Gonna keep it swinging, baby
I'm a real wild child
Son.
Dad.
It's all my fault.
Talk about this when we get home.
Judd?
Judd, you ready, baby?
I'm two buttons away.
- Ooh, Lordy, it smells good in here.
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, Daddy, we're about
to step out the door.
Well, step back in.
There's bad weather coming through.
Now, Dad, don't you even start.
It's your birthday, you just
got your second vaccination,
and you haven't seen your
son in almost a year now.
All right, we're coming.
But you know the first
question your father's
gonna ask us when we get there.
Be about when we're gonna be ready
to give him some grandbabies?
- Uh, that's the one.
- Yes, I know.
How you gonna dance your
way out of it this time?
I was thinking maybe we don't
dance out of it this time.
I think it's about time
we give him some.
Judson Ryder.
Judd? Judd? Judd, wake up, sweetie.
Judd?
All right, Harkes, kill that siren.
What does it mean when you hear a siren?
Pull over to the side of the road!
Sure, but what it really,
really means is
that help is on the way. Yeah?
Who wants to take a
guess at why we call
this one the ladder truck?
- 'Cause there's a ladder.
- What is this? This the honors class?
Actually, we don't have
honors class in Bible Camp.
Maybe you should.
Right here, I'd like to introduce
you to Firefighter Garrity.
He's wearing all of the protective gear.
Now, this is how we stay safe in a fire.
Helmet protects the old
dome, steel-toed boots
ensures we keep ten little piggies,
and this mask lets us breathe
through heavy smoke.
Okay, so, anybody have
any questions today? Sir.
Why did you become a firefighter?
Because he didn't want
to write a college essay.
- Or graduate high school.
- Ah.
Well, 'cause it's the
best job in the world.
There's nothing nothing
better than saving lives.
Anybody else? Anybody? No?
I guess that about wraps it up.
So one last time if
there's an emergency,
what number do you call?
911!
Boom! Very good.
Over here, cowboys and cowgirls.
Thank you for having us.
May I leave these with you?
We run a prayer hotline at
the church, for those in crisis
or who just need a friendly ear.
I strike you as somebody
that needs praying for?
All you brave men here,
given what you see every day,
might be nice to have a number
other than 911 to call.
It's tough to argue that.
- God bless you.
- God bless you. Thanks so much.
Oh!
Oh! Gotta go, gotta go!
Guys. This way.
- Captain Vega. Good to see you.
- Captain Braxton. Hey, Juddy.
- What's up, T?
- What do we know?
Neighbors called 911.
They said they heard someone
yelling for help inside.
- Ryder, take the door.
- Yup, you got it, Cap.
Ooh! Watch that!
Hey, coming in!
Hello? Austin EMS.
In here! Dining room!
- Oh, thank you for coming.
- Hey.
We're here to help you now. I'm Tommy.
- What's your name?
- Leigh-Anne.
- How did you fall?
- How many old ladies
does it take to change a light bulb?
Oh, I see you got jokes.
- Where does it hurt?
- My shoulder and back.
Okay. Let's see. All right.
I think you may have
fractured your shoulder.
We're gonna put a C-collar
on you, just to be safe.
Is there anyone you'd like us to call?
There's no one.
All right. Firefighters,
can you help me get this
nice lady on the gurney?
- Judd, grab her legs.
- Yup.
- I got one.
- No!
No! G-Get him away from me!
Keep your hands off me! I
don't want him in my house!
Get out! Get out!
Get out!
- Just leave me here.
- That's not an option.
One, two, three.
Okay.
Oh, this is so cool.
We actually did it.
Hell yeah! Let's dust 'em!
Son!
Come on!
Yeah!
Judd, come on, come on!
Cal, I'm sorry, brother.
I'm so sorry.
Prayer in Crisis, how
may I help you today?
Hello?
Hello?
Well, you just take your
time. Uh I'm right here.
I apologize.
I don't even know why
I dialed this number.
You want to tell me your name?
I'd just make something up.
That's fair enough. How
about I call you John?
That's as good as any.
You said you don't know why
you made this call tonight.
Do you think maybe it's,
uh, because you were led to?
Hey, look, I'm sorry.
I thought maybe I was in some kind of
a confessional mood, but,
I-I ain't really much of a talker
- when it comes right down to it.
- That's okay.
You don't have to say anything
if you don't want to.
God knows what's on your heart anyway.
Can't hide from God.
Yeah. He surely sees everything.
Can't even hide from yourself
in the end, although
I thought I could.
I've been doing a pretty fair job of it
for about ten years, you know.
Hiding behind the uniform
and pretending that that
uniform was me, but
but it ain't.
You in the military, John?
Oh, no. Hell no. I ain't
brave enough for that.
I'm a firefighter.
Well, I think most people
would consider that quite brave.
They'd be right mostly, but
no, I ain't no hero.
And today I got seen.
My uniform gave me away. It gave me away
'cause I had my stupid
name stitched right on it.
I don't understand.
My fire company got sent
out on this call today,
and the lady we were supposed to help
turned out to be, uh,
someone I used to know,
and someone who I hurt
a long time ago.
So long ago that I forgot about it,
but, uh, she didn't.
And she can't.
Well, maybe God was
giving you an opportunity
to make amends.
Well, you know what, that's
a piss-poor opportunity,
if it is one, 'cause there
ain't gonna be no amends,
'cause that woman would
just as soon spit in my face
as forgive me.
Well, then, maybe you should
let her spit in your face.
- Oh, that's really your advice?
- It was to give her
an opportunity to forgive you.
But also
be willing to be spit on.
It's sure as hell no
more than I deserve.
It's no more than any
of us deserve, John.
"Let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in thy righteousness.
You protect the faithful and reward
the good-doers as long
as they trust in you".
That's Psalms 31.
None of us are perfect.
It's by grace that we're saved.
And my name's not John, it's Judd.
Okay. Well, you sure
you're not making that up?
- No, ma'am.
- Okay.
Well, it's very nice to meet you, Judd.
My name's Grace.
Well, now who's making it up?
Judd. Judd!
Judd, can you hear me,
babe? Please wake up.
Judd!
Baby, wake up. I need you to wake up.
Judd, we were in an accident.
We're in the river, babe.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
We're gonna be all right.
I'm gonna knock that window out,
we're gonna swim to the surface.
It'll be easy-peasy, okay?
Judd, my legs are stuck.
I can't move.
That's not gonna work.
Come on, this could work. It'll
work if I can get it to move.
- Judd
- Just one inch!
Wait, it's
Judd, it's time to go.
- I ain't going without you.
- Judd,
I will always be by your side.
- Grace, Grace, Grace, you're damn right.
- Oh, please.
You're gonna be right by my side because
- wherever you are, that's where I am, too.
- Oh, Judd
And that's the deal, right? Right?
That's the deal, right to the end.
Judd, you have to go.
I can't move!
You have to go.
Prayer in Crisis,
- how can I help you today?
- Is this Grace?
- It is.
- It's Judd.
- Uh, we spoke the other night.
- I remember.
You sound better.
I'm-I'm feeling a little
better, taking your advice.
I'm fixing to either make
amends or get spit at.
Well, I'm pleased to hear it.
I just wanted to thank you.
I think you got a real gift,
and, uh, I appreciate you
sharing it with me.
Well, it's my pleasure.
And if you ever need me again,
you have the number, okay?
Careful now, 'cause I just
might take you up on that.
Prayer in Crisis, how may I help you?
Hey, it's me again.
Hey, Judd, how you doing?
Oh, I don't know, I-I think
I'm feeling kind of blue.
Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
- Um, did something happen?
- No.
It's just more of, like,
a general malaise, I guess.
- A general malaise?
- Well, now, look,
the-the truth is, uh
I think I just wanted
to hear your voice.
Judd, this is a prayer line.
I know. And I just prayed
that you'd pick up.
And, uh, that means it's working, right?
Prayer in Crisis,
how can I help you today?
Howdy, it's me again.
Howdy? I didn't know
people still said howdy.
Oh, yeah, no, no, no,
we still say howdy.
Prayer in Crisis. This is Brother Bob.
How can I help you? Hello?
Prayer in Crisis, how can
- Prayer in Crisis.
- That's better!
Judd, did you just call here
and hang up on Brother Bob
- and Miss Patricia?
- I did, because
I'm a sinner,
and I'm gonna need extra prayer tonight.
Next time, Judd, just ask for me.
I went by Mrs. Kittner's house
today, and still no sign.
Well, listen, you can
only do what you can do.
You think it's okay to eat pulled pork
that's been in the
refrigerator for a week?
Judd, that's not really
- my area of expertise.
- I'm going for it.
I think I had my first sighting today.
- She talk to you?
- No.
Well, hey, at least she
didn't scream for you
- to get off her property.
- Well, that's progress.
Ryder, we dealing you in or not?
No, I'm gonna have to
take y'all's money later.
Since when does he take a
phone call over our money?
Cal couldn't have been
more than 4'5 " or 4'6",
you know, 90 pounds soaking wet.
But he never backed down from a bully.
He had the biggest heart
of anybody I ever met.
God, I miss that kid.
You look thirsty.
Much obliged, ma'am.
Would you like to come inside?
Yes, ma'am, I would
like that very much so.
Prayer in Crisis, how
can I help you tonight?
Uh, is Grace in?
- Uh, no, she's not.
- Okay, well,
do you know when her next shift is?
I got-I got something important
I gotta talk to her about.
Well, she doesn't
have a next shift, I'm afraid.
Grace doesn't volunteer here anymore.
Oh, no, man.
Now she's just being mean.
I mean, she already hit two balls
on a back-corner bank shot;
how's that even possible?
The secret is a steady hand, gents.
- Oh, boy.
- Where the hell you been?
You get lost on your way
back from the can or what?
Oh, no, I bet you he was out there
talking with his secret
phone buddy again.
Why don't you just shut
up and miss your shot?
Okay.
Okay, listen, y'all
didn't ask for a toast
I mean, you didn't ask for
But I'm gonna give one anyway.
God said to build each other up,
and I promise, that is what
you guys have done for me.
I love y'all, I couldn't have
done it without you, truly.
You're the one that did the all-nighters
to get that 4.0.
Cheers, guys.
Juddy, is there a particular reason
you look like you just got
hit by a lightning bolt?
Which one? Uh, the one in the tank top?
No, no
Uh-oh.
In the flowers? Okay, okay.
- All right, come on, let's go.
- What do you mean, let's go?
- What are you doing? Come on. Let's go.
- Come on.
Hey, girl my friend likes.
Hi. I'm so sorry to interrupt, ladies,
but I'd like to introduce
you to my friend.
Hi.
Judd, speak.
Howdy. I'm Judd.
Hi
Judd, uh I'm Grace.
You're so tall.
You are so beautiful.
Ask the girl to dance, Judd.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I
- Go.
- Yeah.
What are the chances?
Honestly, Judd, I'm not sure
chance, uh, had much to do with it.
I don't think so, either.
So, uh, you don't work for
the prayer hotline no more.
Uh, I don't.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm sorry. Uh
I just I didn't know
how to tell you, I guess.
Oh, no, no, no, you
don't owe me nothing.
You're not gonna believe
this, but I just tried
to call you not ten minutes ago.
- No way.
- Mm-hmm.
For what?
I didn't get spit on.
She forgave me.
Ah.
Judd, that's the most wonderful
thing I've heard ever.
You changed my life.
So, you know, it's got me thinking
if that's the sort of miracle
that you can work over the phone,
imagine what you could
do, uh, in person.
Judd, the reason I quiet is, uh,
is 'cause I'm moving.
Moving where?
Georgetown.
They have a graduate
school for global policy,
and I found out I got in.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Yeah, I-I knew you was a smart cookie.
- Oh
So, how, uh how'd Friday be, then?
You're not hearing the
words I'm saying, sir.
I leave at the end of the summer.
It doesn't make sense to
start anything new right now.
I feel like we already
started something.
I feel like I'm dreaming, Judd.
If I'm dreaming, I
don't want to wake up.
Judd?
Where am I?
Where am I?
West Park Memorial.
There was an accident.
Where's Grace? Where's my wife?
Cap, where's my girl at?
It was six minutes, T.
She was pinned underwater
for six minutes
before Swiftwater Rescue got to us.
I know.
You can get brain damage in four.
You can, you can.
But there have been people
that have been under for seven,
even eight minutes without
permanent brain damage.
The water was cold.
That worked in her favor.
I couldn't get her out of there, man.
I wasn't strong enough.
- I couldn't save her, I couldn't lift her.
- Judd
I got spooked.
I saw the-the lights coming
and I shouldn't have swerved
the truck into a river.
Judd!
Do you really think either one of you
would be coming out of this better
after a head-on collision?
Is she coming out of it?
Listen to me. Listen. Look at me.
Okay, we have to be
positive about this, right?
All right.
She's alive.
She's a fighter.
She laid you out.
- With one punch.
- One punch.
Don't you dare underestimate our girl.
I never have.
No, I'm serious. Smarty-pants here
is about to be taking courses
that I couldn't even pronounce
without getting my tongue
tied up in a knot.
First of all, he is exaggerating, y'all.
No, no, I'm not.
What's-what's the one?
The Globalization
of Emerging Intercourse Relations.
I'm pretty sure that's not right.
The Globalization of Emerging
Intersocietal Relations.
I mean, I was impressed
12 syllables ago.
T's right. This is, this is impressive.
It's Georgetown, right?
Bill Clinton went there.
LBJ went there.
Tommy, can we talk about
something else now, please?
Aw, look oh, look how cute she is,
trying to avoid the spotlight.
Well, then, maybe we should just
swing the spotlight over this way.
- What?
- Let's go.
- Okay.
- What do you say, my love?
Charles.
Uh, okay okay.
Um, well, all right, then.
Uh, guess what.
I got myself knocked up.
Tommy, stop it.
Y'all are pregnant for real?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- For real?
- Oh, my gosh!
- Yo.
Come here. Come here, come here.
Oh, my God.
I know, it's crazy right?
Oh, hey, I hope you don't mind,
but you might be getting a phone call.
I put you down as a reference.
For what?
Well with some firehouses in D.C.
D.C.? So you're going with her?
Oh, no, no. I'm just
kicking the tires for now.
So you haven't told Grace?
There's nothing to tell yet. You know?
Plus, it's, like,
there's a very fine line
between romantic and creepy.
We've only been doing
this for two months.
Well, she looks pretty smitten to me.
It's summer, man. Everybody's smitten.
What about you?
You sure you're just not smitten?
No, sir.
I'm in love.
She looks like an angel when she sleeps.
Yes.
Since she was a baby.
Y'all really did give
her the perfect name.
The second this girl
came into the world,
you could just feel the
Spirit radiating off of her.
Yes, Lord.
Always so sweet,
never thinking about
herself, always others.
Yeah, that'd be my wife.
Food's here.
There he is.
- Hey, Judd.
- You look good.
How you feeling?
Uh, I feel like-like my
truck that got hit by a river.
Oh, Cap.
Good to see you, man. Oh, well, oh.
Look at all this good grub
y'all brought, too. Wow.
We didn't really know what to get,
so we sort of got everything.
That-that's all right. I'm, you know,
I'm in the mood for everything,
so, wow.
Thank you. I'll tell you
what, I'm gonna get, uh
This is Gracie's favorite, so
I'm gonna cut a little piece
for Grace.
So that, uh
when she, when she,
when she wakes up,
just she's probably
gonna have a big appetite.
So I'll just keep it here
Just
I'll just, uh
Thank you guys for being,
for being here, you know.
For the both of us, thank you very much.
We doing a group one?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right, we got you.
- Thank you.
- We got to do the same for our own.
Thank you.
Hey, Reyes.
Hey, Banks. Carter. What
are you guys doing here?
Had to interview some drunk who plowed
his SUV into a convenience
store this morning.
Look like the same guy may have ran
some folks off the
Lamar Bridge last night.
- Wait, he's here?
- Yeah. Banged up his leg.
Other than that, nothing
else, not a scratch.
Drunks, right? All right,
see you around.
Hey. You good?
I'm g No, I'm good.
I'm good, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's in the Lord's hands now.
He knows what he's doing.
Yes, sir.
- Hey, Judd.
- Hey, Mr. Williams.
Uh, I'm supposed to
pick up Grace for a date.
Yeah, she's, uh, still getting ready.
Come on in.
You know, my wife is gonna hate
that she missed you.
- Here.
- Thank you.
You know, she's, uh, she's
grown quite fond of you, Judd.
Well, we both have.
We can tell how much you
care about our daughter.
Well, I mean, I-I know it
ain't it hasn't been,
uh, more than, well,
I guess, a few months,
but, uh, I love her, sir.
Well, I guess we finally found something
that we both have in common.
Amen. How about that?
I appreciate it. Oh, man.
Mmm.
Holy smokes, that's good tea.
Yeah, that's my
great-granddaddy's recipe.
You know, he was a, uh,
sharecropper in South Carolina.
That man broke his back every day
so that his children could be
the first in his line to
finish elementary school.
Two generations later,
my mother marched in
Selma with Dr. King.
To fight for my future.
- That's an incredible legacy.
- Yes, it is.
Yes, it is, and I've spent
every day of my life
trying to live up to it.
My question to you, son,
is
what are you willing to
sacrifice for my daughter?
Whatever it takes.
I was hoping you would say that.
You see, for generations,
this family has been marching
toward its destiny.
But I'm afraid
that that can't happen
if you're a part of it.
Okay.
Uh
What it comes down to
is I am the wrong color.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I'm not talking about the
color of your skin, Judd.
I'm talking about the
color of your collar.
Now, don't get me wrong.
I admire what you do, Judd.
But Gracie is special.
I mean, she has a chance to
go out and change the world.
I-In ways that my great-granddaddy
couldn't have even imagined.
She's meant for great things, Judd.
Big things.
Yeah. All I want is what's best for her.
And that's why I have no doubt
you'll do the right thing.
Hey, y'all.
Hey, there she is.
Well, ain't you looking beautiful?
Ugh, Daddy. You say that every time.
Judd, I'm sorry I'm
running a little late.
No, it was worth the wait. Uh
Your daddy's right.
- You're an absolute vision, Grace.
- Thank you.
First one in, last one out
All right.
What Well, what's your hurry, cowboy?
Well, I mean, we're here, ain't we?
Well, the dance floor's
not going anywhere.
No, I know, but, you know,
your, uh, your dance card's
only got a couple dances
left on it before you got to go, so
Hmm. What would you say if I told you
we could have as many dances we wanted?
Well, how's that?
Well, I think maybe I don't
leave next month, Judd.
I think maybe I stay here.
What about Georgetown?
I don't think Georgetown is for me.
- Gracie Gr
- No, well,
before you say anything,
so there's no confusion,
I've been thinking about
this for a while, Judd.
Before you and I even met.
I mean, but why-why
would you want to give up
a great opportunity like that?
You was, you was gonna
go make a difference.
Well, who says I can't make
a difference right here?
I watch you do it. Every
single day. And Tommy.
Yeah, me and Tommy
didn't get into a school
with a three percent acceptance rate.
I understand, Judd,
but you weren't the
only person that I met
while working those phones.
Judd, I really feel like I met myself.
Talking to people and connecting
You're gonna go to Georgetown.
Okay? You're gonna be something.
And, uh, you know,
that's that. That's
That's that.
Judd, I love you.
I loved you before I met you.
And I happen to know
that you love me, too.
You're wrong. I'm
I don't believe you.
Look at me, in my eyes,
and tell me that you don't love me.
I don't love you.
Okay?
- Okay
- Hang on a minute, please.
Will you let me just take you home?
Well, I don't know what makes
you think I'm going home.
I came here to dance.
And that's exactly what I'm-a do.
You can go home, sir.
Garrity, ladder the building,
start ventilating the roof.
Ryder and Harkes, run a two-and-a-half
- to the nearest hydrant.
- You got it, Cap.
All right.
Unbelievable.
Where the hell do
people like this get off?
Yeah, some people think
that their stuff don't stink.
- Been going around.
- What you mean, going around?
Don't worry about it,
let's just run this line.
Yeah, but how you gonna run it?
Let me grab that from you.
I'll take care of that.
Hey! Hey!
That's my car!
Oh, this your car?
You got to be kidding me.
You parked it in front
of a fire hydrant,
so the police will send
you your ticket, all right?
What the hell?
You could have at least
let me open the door.
Yeah, I guess I could have.
I want your name, you son of
a bitch. You're paying for this.
I tell you what, why don't
you call my office, okay?
You got a pen? The number's 911.
- I'm calling my lawyer.
- Good, you're gonna need a lawyer
if you don't get out of my way.
'Cause if you interfere
with public duty,
that's a felony in Texas.
Enjoy your power trip now.
Because tomorrow, when you wake up,
you'll still be a sad little fireman.
Hey, hey, hey!
Easy, easy!
- Break it up.
- I'm good, good, good.
I'm good. Y'all got him?
Oh, man, man, man.
Me? Me? It's me.
Um, I'm sorry you had to
come all the way out here.
No, that's exactly what I
wanted to do with my day.
Spend some quality time with
my son and his bail bondsman.
What the hell were you thinking about?
I was I-I was trying to fight a fire.
I didn't know I had to
fight some douchebag, too.
You know, the only thing smart
about you anymore is that mouth.
Do you realize that you could've
flushed your whole life
down the toilet bowl?
Oh, police told me that the other guy
ain't gonna press charges
'cause he'd be facing a felony.
What about your Cap? And
those guys you work with?
It'll be a month of KP and latrine duty
and then and I mean,
they'll get over it.
You think the only one you're hurting
doing all this is yourself, don't you?
Well, unless you
straighten your ass out,
you're gonna hurt somebody real bad,
and I'm not gonna be there
to tell you it's okay.
Oh, uh, hey.
Hey, man, I think you're
in the wrong room?
I think I got the wrong building.
I bet neither one of us
expected to find ourselves
in the hospital today, right?
But then we both got your
dumb ass to thank for that.
All right, you shouldn't be in here
If you touch the phone,
if you cry out, I'm-a snap your wrist.
- Okay. Okay.
- Got it?
- Okay. Yes.
- What's your name?
It's, uh, it's-it's Caleb.
It's C-Caleb, Caleb Wilson.
- Caleb?
- Yeah.
I heard you plowed through a
convenience store this morning.
What-what were you gonna pick up?
What? What? What do you,
what do you mean? Uh
You know, at the store?
They got things to buy?
- What'd you hope to buy?
- Oh, yeah, um
- What? Baby wipes or a soda?
- Ow, ow, no.
- No, I was just, I was gonna get
- Lotto tickets?
I was gonna get, I was just
gonna get, like, a churro.
- And a hot chocolate.
- You got a sweet tooth?
- Yeah.
- Me, too.
Let me ask you, though, Caleb.
How-how, how is it that a man
could run two people off a road,
and then just leave them to drown
and then wake-wake up
and think to himself,
"I think I'd like a churro"?
All right, listen, man, listen, um,
I don't even, I don't even, like,
I don't even, like, remember yesterday.
You know, like, the truck
or the river or-or nothing.
I'm sorry, I have a problem.
I have, I have a problem.
- You have a problem. Yeah.
- Yes, I have a problem.
You do have a problem.
My wife Grace is the
best person I've known.
Her life's work is saving lives.
Her life's work is saving people.
- Yeah.
- If she saved one life per shift
and that's conservative
then by my estimation
she's saved 2,250 lives.
- She saved 2,251
- Mm. Mm-hmm.
if you want to count me.
Right? Which is a life she's
saved numerable times.
So
if a piece of trash like
you gets to snuff her out
and live, what does that mean?
What does that mean?
- What does
- Judd, that's enough. Let him go.
Why? This is what he deserves.
Because Gracie's awake, son.
She's awake, Judd.
And the first person
she asked for was you.
She needs you, son.
Hey. Hey, hey. Hey.
Grace just saved your life, too.
She just saved your life, too.
Hey, girl.
- Hello, my love.
- Hey.
You gave us a scare there for a minute.
You know I wasn't going anywhere, Judd.
Wherever you are,
that's where I'm-a be.
That's the deal, right?
That's the deal.
Yeah.
Mrs. Ryder, I think you might be
the most popular patient I've ever had.
Your well-wishers are becoming
a fire hazard out in the hall.
If there's a fire, they're
who you want here.
How are you feeling?
A little foggy, uh,
but just mostly tired.
That's understandable. You've
been through quite a bit.
Doc, I can't feel my legs.
That's entirely normal.
But the feeling will come back.
In a few days, we'll start
talking about physical therapy.
Okay, but that's it, right?
Mend-mend a couple bones?
- She's good, that's it?
- Yes.
They both seem to be in perfect health.
You said, "they"?
I did.
Mrs. Ryder, you're pregnant.
Can I can I kiss my wife?
- She's your wife.
- Yes, she is. Yes, she is.
I love you, girl.
- I love you.
- I love you, Judd.
pray for us sinners now
and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Hey, y'all.
- Hey.
- Hey.
How's my favorite little girl doing?
She's doing good, Daddy.
She's doing real good.
Then how come you're crying?
Oh, hell, son.
'Cause he gonna be a granddaddy.
What?
Well, happy birthday.
Congratulations. Come on, 126.
Bring it in here.
Howdy.
You're here to see the Vegas, I take it?
- Y How did you know that?
- She just had twins.
Oh, the Yes.
Well, they're not quite
ready for visitors,
but you can take a seat.
Thank you.
Twins.
- Something, huh?
- Mm-hmm.
That's a couple of somethings.
How you been, Grace?
I've been good.
How you been?
Good. Getting by.
Tommy, uh, Tommy said
you'd didn't end up
going to Georgetown.
I told you that myself, Judd.
I guess you meant it, too.
Yeah. Guess I did.
How'd your daddy take it?
My daddy's not the boss of me, Judd.
Right.
You got a tattoo.
Uh, I did. "Psalm 31".
So that, uh
so I can remember
what really matters.
"Let me never be ashamed.
Deliver me in thy righteousness".
That's the one.
Hmm.
I can't say that I don't
feel ashamed, though.
Ashamed of what, Judd?
I lied to you.
I looked you in your eye,
I lied to your face.
Yeah, you did.
I wish I hadn't.
Oh, Tommy said, uh, you got a new job?
Yeah, I did. I'm, um
I'm training to be a 911 dispatcher.
Well, I think that's wonderful.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Are you seeing anyone?
Uh
Yeah, I got myself a fella, Judd.
That's good.
Mm-hmm.
That's a lucky man.
Yeah, he is.
He's too dumb to know it, though.
Or stubborn.
I'm not sure which.
All I know is that he hasn't
picked up a phone in six months.
Hey, you two.
- Oh, boy
- Hey.
Oh
Mm.
How would you two like to come
back and meet your goddaughters?
You said our goddaughters?
So these people are using
the birth of their babies
to play matchmaker.
These people are very, very sneaky.
I should've warned you about that.
Diabolical.
Are we ready?
Are you ready?
I've been ready.
Then let's do this.
See "911 Lone Star".
