My God, that's the biggest
damn fire I've never seen.

♪♪

I hate fire drills.

City mandates we do
'em every three years.

Can't fight city hall.

First alarm was
triggered at 12:20.

Call came in
30 seconds later.

Boots down, hoses out by 12:43.

That's what?

Four minutes over
our allotted response time.

Ouch, that's gonna
cost us some points.

Somebody's gonna have to explain

that to the new fire marshal.

There was a stalled bus

blocking both
directions on Grand.

Vehicles couldn't clear a path,
which delayed our arrival.

And yet the 144

managed a response time
in under six minutes.

That's a full 17 minutes
ahead of the 118.

The 144 is five block away.

I hear you, Bobby,
I do,

and..and..and
I wanna help.

I gotta be impartial
here, you know?

Look, if I'm gonna do
this kind of light duty,

I gotta take it seriously,
gotta be strictly by the book,

just how you would
want me to be.

For what it's worth,
I'm proud of you.

I'm glad you didn't
throw away your career

just 'cause you had
a little setback.

I learned one thing
from that tsunami:

it's that I don't quit. I fight.

I'm gonna keep on fighting

until I get back
to where I belong

with my team putting
out fake fires like this one.

You're enjoying
this way too much.

Be careful not to logjam
at the stairwells.

I have to..
oh.

Why do they always do
these things during lunch?

My carbonara's
gonna turn to mush.

[chuckles] I don't know.

You okay?

It's not a real fire.

You expecting paparazzi?

This is a fake fire.
Why can't we use a fake hose?

Hey, Buck, how we doing?

Epileptic seizures

No need to be.

The event seems over.

Just to be safe, we're gonna
get you to the hospital, okay?

- Thanks.
- Hey, there.

Chase Mackey, tenth floor,
Mackey, Gaskin & Whitmore.

I want you to know
I saw everything

and I have reason
to believe this building

is not in compliance

with the Americans
with Disabilities Act.

There's several legal options
you might wish to consider.

- Sir?
- Hmm?

You might wanna wait until
they're in the ambulance

before you start chasing it.

Okay.

Well, it's a good thing

this wasn't an actual
five-alarm fire.

Yeah, that is a good thing.

Probably doesn't help
that you're a man down.

You know, I will be sure
to mention that in my report.

Thanks.

No problem.

[siren whirs]

You've had it twice
as long as me.

It's not even your game.

Denny, let Harry have a turn.

Why can't he play
with his own stuff?

Cut it out.

Play nice,
or I'll take the game away.

We have one more round of tests,

and then we do the trigger shot
to induce ovulation.

36 hours later, we go in
for the egg retrieval.

Doctor's hoping to grab 15.

15 eggs?

[chuckles]

I thought you two wanted a baby,

not a baseball team.

[laughter]

No, we're expected to lose half
at every stage of the process,

so we start with 15 in the hopes

of getting 2 or
3 viable embryos.

Oh, oh, okay.

Well, I've always
been an overachiever,

so my money's on
the baseball team.

[laughter]

- Give it back!
- It's my turn!

- It's my game!
- It's my house!

- Give it back!
- It's my turn!

Kids!

[laughs]

You need to teach
us how to do that.

[laughter]

What if Denny doesn't
like having a sibling?

What's not to like?

Kids are better with siblings.

It makes them better people.

Wait a minute.
[scoffs]

Both Athena and I
are only children,

and we turned out just fine.

Yes,
you are both wonderful adults,

but I just..I don't know who
I'd be without my brothers.

They made me kinder,
more understanding,

more willing to share.

Yeah, well, our little one

is struggling with the concept
of "sharing is caring."

What if they're at each
other's throats all the time?

Oh, they will be.

Mm-hmm, May,
she loved having a baby brother,

right up till that
part where he started

walking and talking and
getting into all her stuff.

[chuckles]

Oh, I'm not sure we
considered that part.

Our family's not just
growing; it's changing.

It'll be an adjustment,

but you two will do just fine.

Denny'll love having a brother

eventually.

[laughter]

Your brother is
driving me crazy.

You weren't there.

Okay, he was enjoying it.

I never seen a man
make check marks

with such enthusiasm.

Give a guy a little
power, he goes mad.

Hmm,
said the pot about the kettle.

Hey, Captain Chimney
is safely behind us.

I'm a wiser kettle now.

Actually,
you were the pot in that scenario.

[ominous music]

Hey.

Oh!

- Nothing, I'm fine.

I..I just, um..
I'm so sorry.

No, no, no, just leave it.
I'll grab a broom.

No, I got it, okay?

I just..I..I didn't realize, um..

Maddie, are you okay?

I didn't realize how..

and..and so I should..

Really wasn't sure
what to say after that.

"Hey, Maddie,

"like your psycho
ex-husband, right?

I'm not the kind of guy

Because she was.

I mean, it was just for a

she looked scared.

Not really sure what
to do with that.

[yawns]

Oh, I'm sorry,
is my crisis boring you?

Sorry, uh, didn't get
much sleep last night.

Christopher's been
having nightmares

ever since the tsunami.

He and half the city.

That's gotta be expected,
though, right?

Ah, he's waking up
screaming and crying.

Tried talking to him about it,
but he won't open up to me.

Says he's fine.

Yeah, lot of that going around.

Careful, guys.
Hall monitor's here.

You guys paint?

Why does the place look smaller?

I think your head
just got bigger.

[all chuckle]

So Fire Marshal Buck

decides to drop off
his report in person.

Is that a sign of maturity?

Or is it just revenge for all
the times I've written you up?

Actually, uh, you passed.

I bumped up the numbers,
got fancy with the math.

You don't know math.

Which will be my excuse

if anybody calls me out on it.

Uh, speaking of,

did any of you guys get
a call from that lawyer?

The ambulance chaser?

He wants to talk to me about
the building violations.

Think somebody
might be suing them.

Yeah, he was passing
out cards like candy.

Hey, Diaz,
I need a spot over here.

Got you.

Hey, good to see you, man.

Uh, who..who's that?

What?

Her name is Lena Bosko.

Her station was smack in
the middle of the impact zone

and her crew was
temporarily reassigned,

so I brought her over here.

- You replaced me?
- What? No.

Then what's that right there?

Buck, relax.

Christopher talked about

there was some negligence

[scoffs] Nah,
I wouldn't agree with that, no.

Your after-action
report says the LAFD

exceeded the evacuation time
requirement by 12 minutes.

That's actually a
pretty decent time

for clearing a
35-story building.

Look, all your questions seem
to be about the department.

I thought your client
was suing the building.

42 injured people the
LAFD failed to protect.

have gotten the ring?

She bought you a condo.

That was a loan,
and I paid her back with interest.

- Of course you did.
- Yes.

'Cause you're
Little Miss Perfect

and I'm the screwup.
You know what?

This was Mom's apology,
and I'm accepting it.

Thief? I'm sorry.

Uh, dispatch said it

It's both.

[dramatic musical sting]

Why is this happening?

Divine retribution, Moira.

Hmm, or more likely,
it's an allergic reaction.

All right, ma'am,
is there anything in the house

that you're sensitive to,
medications, foods?

She used to break out in hives
when she was stressed.

I'm not stressed?

Our mom just died,
so I'm..I'm a little stressed.

Stress wouldn't do this.

Which one of you
played bartender?

I did, why?

Phytophotodermatitis,

it's a fancy name
for margarita burns.

Citrus over a
certain temperature

and UV light conditions can
trigger a chemical reaction.

Ma'am, this ring
finger, can you feel it?

No.

An Epi should bring
down the swelling,

but we're gonna have
to cut this ring off.

No! Uh-uh! No!
You cannot cut that ring.

That is my ring,

and I do not give you
authorization to cut it.

Your sister's finger
is turning blue.

That's the step before
black, when it's dead.

Her whole finger could fall off.

That sounds horrible.

Can't you just cut the finger
off now before that happens?

Ma'am, I understand that
it's a sentimental object,

so we'll save you the pieces.

I'm gonna give you
the shot.

Oh!
[gasps]

All right, hold still.

[saw whirring]

Wait!

I sold it.

The buyer's already paid me

a lot.

I knew it.

You are, without a doubt,
the worst person...

- Hey, hey, hey.
- I have ever known!

Come on, aren't you sisters

mourning your deceased mother?

Aren't you supposed to be
teaching each other empathy

instead of setting
each other off?

Only child, right?

Obviously.

Okay, just hold still.

Okay, Hen.

Not exactly sure what to call it.

Okay, I swear it had

I know.

At first, I didn't,

uh, yesterday, I guess.

This car fell off the cliff

Oh, yeah, I heard about that,

the mom and her two kids, right?

Yeah.

Well, the older kid,
he was probably 12 or 13.

I could see him
trying to be strong

for his brother and his mother,

and it just took me
back to when I was a kid

trying to be strong
for my mother

while some doctor
explains cancer to us,

all these emotions in me.

You never told me about that.

Well, I had never really
thought about that in years,

but all of a sudden,
there it was.

You know, I didn't plan it,
couldn't control it.

It just happened.

There's gotta be
a word for that.

I'm sure the Germans
have something.
