Previously on Fire Country...

I don't know what kind of relationship you have with Bode,

but you really get him.

I think he has someone else

who gets him now.

You brought me flowers, huh?

Your first day could only go downhill

after we rode out an entire fire in a pool.

Hi.

I'm Violet.

Can I buy you a drink?

I saw you nursing your knee earlier.

Is that the old injury acting up?

No, it's just something new.

Here, these help.

Yeah, pop one every now and then for the pain.

You think there is a problem, though?

I mean, Nonno still seems like he's pretty sharp.

Yeah, he's a little forgetful,

but he didn't need to be scared

by a bunch of tests.

Birch. Hey, bro, wake up.

He's sweating with no fever.

No-- hey. Somebody call Cap.

Tell her to call 911.

Birch was a good man.

♪ Won't you stand... ♪

He was working the program and...

he was trying to overcome his demons

and not succumb to them.

And he died on my watch.

Wasn't your fault.

Birch was sick and he refused to go to the infirmary.

Yeah, but I missed something.

Like, the report said he had a heart murmur,

and then the ER doctor said the cold must've taken him out.

That doesn't sit right.

No, it doesn't.

Even with a pre-existing condition,

a cold shouldn't have gotten him to that level

of respiratory distress.

And his fingers were blue when he died.

Yeah. A cold doesn't do that.

The autopsy will tell us more, though, yeah?

The coroner already determined the cause of death.

It doesn't sound like they got it right.

I mean, can't the hospital still do one if the family asks?

Yeah, Birch's sister's coming to pick up his stuff tomorrow.

I can ask her.

You deserve answers.

So does Birch. You don't just...

Just because he was locked up

doesn't mean that he didn't matter.

Yeah. You're right, bud.

God! Yes!

That is how we do it, right there.

Warriors. Warriors. Warriors.

How many is that? Four in a row now? Mm.

Oh, nice.

Ah, come on.

All right. Great win. Now,

time for a great night's sleep, Walter.

How much do we pay you an hour?

To tell a grown man what time he has to go to bed?

Try not to use all your charm at once, Dad.

He probably just needs some carbs,

soak up the sauce. Okay.

How about I whip you up a snack?

Ooh, that'd be nice.

How old are you, Javi?

You don't have to answer that.

That's okay. No. How old are you?

I'm 27.

27. Did you ever hear the story

about the world's oldest humpback whale?

Yeah, they called him "Old Timer."

He survived getting hit by ships, getting all tangled up

in fishing gear, even survived climate change,

and not despite his age.

Scientists proved that it was because of his age.

Because of his resilience,

his wisdom.

I'd like to see you make it

to my age and not flip out

when some 27-year-old tries to placate you

with a juice box and a couple

chocolate chip cookies.

Sleep is important for memory.

Scientists, they figured that out, too.

Ah. Let me see now.

Paula. Jason.

Maria. Chester.

All your predecessors.

I remember all four of their names.

And you know why they're gone

and you're still here?

Because I told you if you chased off

another home healthcare worker,

you'd get locked in your room with no beer?

Yeah, that's funny, Vinny.

No. It's because I like you. Just a little.

And as you can see, Javi, I'm doing just fine.

So, I'm gonna watch a little more TV

and stay up a little longer, if you don't mind.

Ultimately, it is your decision.

You did take your 2:00 p.m. today, though, right?

I don't know. You're the one holding the pillbox.

You tell me what it says.

All right, looks good.

Okay, so let's seal the side window and then

check the water lines for any leaks.

Need a couple new power outlets inside. Power outlets

inside, yes. Yeah, and would you find out what it would cost

on top of your handyman rate

for just, like, the tiniest wine fridge?

'Cause Mama likes her wine.

Oh, okay, you got it, Chief.

Thanks, babe. Hey, James.

How was North Carolina? Hey.

It was good. It was a success.

I got all my stuff back from my ex.

He put it on a box on the porch.

Didn't even have to see him.

Oh. What about you?

You fixing up the Airstream?

Yeah. I think we're gonna get

to Yosemite this summer, finally.

Mm. Just the two of you.

The open road. Sounds like the beginning

of a spicy little beach read.

Oh, really? Do your spicy

beach reads usually include a cantankerous father-in-law?

Walter.

Hey, at least the man has a mean game of cards.

Yeah, and if you like red meat with a side of bacon,

he's a pretty good cook, too.

Sounds like you've got it handled.

Yeah, I kind of do.

Come on, let's go to work.

Uh-huh. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Oh, whoa, whoa.

Hey, no spinning. I told you, no spinning.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

Hey, yo, Gabs.

Answer a question for me. Oh, no.

Run for your life. Hide.

Look, Birch's sister is gonna come to the camp later,

so let me have this distraction,

okay? Whatever, all right.

What's the question? Okay, so

what is your irrational fear?

For example, mine is drowning in a vat of molasses,

and then people finding my skeletal remains.

So weirdand so freaky. Oh.

Okay. Damn. Just saying.

Um...

That I still love Bode on some level and everyone can tell.

I mean, Luke acted like he could

smell it on me, and he got in my head.

Oh.

What? Huh?

Well, I mean, if you love someone,

do you ever stop loving them?

Like-like me and Francine. Like, we are very on again.

Yeah, but I-I-I don't love Jake like that anymore.

Yeah, back at you. I've moved on.

To Violet. Right, so his irrational fear

is that, now that she's on her ski trip,

inevitably, she's gonna beeline into a tree.

Okay, yes, but that is because there is a storm up there,

and she has not texted me back.

No, that-that fear's not irrational.

Boom. See?

Don't make him worry more than he needs to.

You lost your dad,

Cara, of-of course your mind is catastrophizing.

Right, avalanches, crashes, hypothermia...

But I'm sure she'll be fine.

Thanks. That helps.

Hey, nobody else thinks that I'm-I'm giving, like,

"I love Bode" vibes besides Luke, right?

I think it's just 'cause we know you.

You don't think he can tell, do you?

Nah...

Just so you know, you're blushing a lot.

No-- I... Right there.

I am fine. I am strong on my own,

and Bode and Audrey are-are...

whatever they are. Goodbye.

Hey.

Jamesy. Welcome back.

I kind of missed the constant mocking.

Little bit.

Hey, um...

Serious question,

how's everyone doing at Three Rock?

They're, uh...

...they're hanging in there,

given that Birch died right in front of them.

That was always a fear of mine, to die before I got out.

Yeah.

Eve's working on getting an autopsy,

so at least they know what happened.

Hey, uh...

less serious question.

I know that we're, like, taking things slow...

But...?

But...

...Sunset Holler's playing at the Jolly Well tonight.

It's, uh, this, like, local band.

They're playing at a small bar just outside of Edgewater.

Um...

Is a concert a little over the speed limit,

if we're trying to take things slow?

Well, that's just the first date.

I don't know. That way, we can

get to know each other better.

What do you want to know?

Whatever. Like...

I don't even know your middle name.

Well...

My middle name is how you know I was born in a trailer park

next to a pile of crushed beer cans and a pack of smokes.

I got a past you don't know anything about.

Yeah, we both do.

Mine is...

...somewhere you don't want to be.

Try me.

Peaches.

Uh...

My middle name is Peaches.

It's Peaches?

You're serious, it's Peaches? Shut up.

Yes.

Don't tell anyone. No, it is not.

Don't.

Okay. Wellness check

on the elderly homeowner, Estelle Lorian.

Neighbors called, said that they haven't seen her in days.

James, check the front door.

Perez, Leone, Bravo side.

You're on the Delta side.

On it, Cap. Let's go. - On it, Cap. - Copy.

Hello? Estelle?

Hey, Cap?

Is he trying to break in?

Well, I wasn't expecting a two for one.

All right, look, you two talk him down, calmly.

We don't know his mental state or if he's armed.

This is Captain Crawford.

Requesting sheriffs en route.

Hey, sir, we need you to come on down.

Oh, hi.

Hi. Thanks for coming.

Yeah, hi. All right, come on. Let's go.

Right, uh, I can do that.

Um...

Uh, careful! Ooh! Watch out! Are you...

All right, sir, the sheriffs

have already been alerted.

What? Why?

Oh, no, no. Wait!

You think I'm breaking in? I'm not, I'm not.

You're trespassing, you're trying to pry open a window.

To check on Estelle. S-Sorry, uh...

I'm Finn, I, um, I live down the block.

I called 911--

May I take a look?

Uh, yeah.

But me later. Estelle needs help now.

Yeah, so do you, you see?

That's bad, right? Oh, yeah, that's bad.

I will help you get you somewhere more comfortable.

Come on, all right.

Okay, so if you weren't

trying to break in, then what were you doing up there?

I ju-- I didn't know how long it would take

for you guys to get here.

And with Estelle being stuck inside, I...

Wait, so, you're s-- Are you sure she's inside?

Estelle doesn't go out, ever, um...

She gets everything delivered.

Look, based on that pile,

she hasn't been out in three days.

I called, she didn't answer. I looked through

the downstairs window. Nothing, uh...

I called you guys.

Then I got the idea to look upstairs,

instead of just waiting...

You were worried.

You took action.

I get it.

Yeah. Thanks.

Hey, Cap?

Nobody's answering the door.

Can't see through the windows.

Okay, um... Hey, Perez?

You stay with Finn. Uh, Leone, James?

Find me a way inside this house.

Got it.

Hey, Estelle, it's Cal Fire.

Can you hear us?

Estelle, we're entering your home.

You want to axe it or me?

That works, too.

Hey, Cap?

The door's unlocked, but it's jammed.

Uh, yeah.

Estelle's hanging on to a lot of stuff.

Estelle's a hoarder.

Hey, Estelle? Estelle?

We're coming through the front window.

♪ What we need ♪

♪ To give each other ♪

♪ Love is... ♪

Estelle?

Estelle, we're firefighters.

We're here to help.

Can you hear me?

Coming in.

It smells like if bleu cheese and feet had a baby.

She is a needle in this haystack.

Haystack or a death trap?

Estelle?

Hello?

Estelle?

Hey, Estelle? Are you injured?

♪ Love was meant to be ♪

♪ For you and me ♪

♪ So listen... ♪

Hmm, there is such

a thing as too much devotion.

Yeah. That is some shine.

Okay, this might hurt.

Can't feel worse than a swan dive

off a house in front of the real heroes.

In another context, like a bar, I swear

I'm very charming.

Don't worry, we've seen it all.

Really? You've seen someone Free Solo off a shed?

How long have you known Estelle?

Oh, uh, forever.

Um, growing up, she was queen of the neighborhood.

She had the mythical house that handed out full-size Milky Ways

on Halloween. You know, she sewed

all my costumes for school plays.

Oh, he's an actor.

Well, a photographer, now.

I moved behind the camera after my fourth grade

performance of Gaston.

I'm not saying I peaked at ten, but I did get

a standing ovation and my mom had me sign her program.

So...

Okay, so from

queen of the neighborhood to...

now.

What happened to Estelle?

Her ex-husband happened.

He walked out, no explanation, no closure.

So she knit herself into a Gordon shrine

and never came out.

I mean, I get it.

I've had my share of gnarly break-ups, you know?

Yeah.

JAKE [over radio]: Leone, what's your status?

Cleared the living room, we're making our way

down the back hall. Copy that.

Half of hoarder calls end up finding a buried body?

What percentage of those bodies are firefighters?

Uh, Mr. Leone?

A minute before I go?

You're not quitting, are you? Don't say you're quitting.

No, no, nothing like that.

Um...

here.

Yeah, memory care facilities.

Um, a little early for that, right?

Respectfully, sir, it's sooner than you think.

I found these.

He said he took his meds,

but they were stashed in a drawer.

It's a sign of advancing dementia.

Remember last night, when he was rattling off

the names of all those other aides, no problem...

I'm-I'm only here three times a week.

Soon you're gonna need more than that.

It'll get expensive fast. Just take a look now,

so you'll be ready for when the time comes.

Um...

All right, thanks.

Bye.

We are so sorry for your loss,

Wendy, I...

Honestly.

For so long, my brother's been a string of DUIs.

In and out of prison.

I lost him a long time ago.

Mm-hmm. After the funeral,

he'll finally be at peace.

Before you finalize your memorial plans,

I want to highly encourage you to request an autopsy.

Uh, an autopsy?

The coroner said it was his heart.

Trust me, the way he lived, it's no big surprise.

Uh, Cap...?

Yeah. It wasn't his heart.

Birch was clean, he was-- he was sober.

He was working the program with me.

He was working out like a beast.

And then just out of the blue, he got sick.

A day later-- I get the call

I've been expecting for years.

What difference would an autopsy make?

He's dead. The difference is the truth

about who your brother was at the end.

He was more than just an alcohol problem.

He was a good firefighter.

He was an even better basketball player.

And the man could not land a punch line

to save his life.

That's for sure.

I'm gonna miss his laugh.

Yeah.

We all are.

You would've been proud of who your brother was.

It's just...

we don't know what happened to him.

But you owe yourself and him

the truth, don't you think?

I'll request the autopsy.

Do you think we're really here?

Memory care? A-Assisted living?

I mean... I brought

him here today just so you could

keep an eye on his pills while I'm on shift.

but...

...full-time care, I don't,

I-I kind of don't buy it.

I don't think we can afford to buy it.

I mean, between Smokey's,

and-and the Airstream, I...

Did you see how much these care facilities cost?

Yeah, I mean, the only one that makes sense for us

is what, seven grand a month?

It's...

And that's for the lowest level of care. I am not...

I'm not gonna ask my dad to look at these.

I mean, don't.

Please don't say that this is just me being in denial,

again, about his condition, okay? No, no, I'm not

saying anything, I-I'm in total agreement with you.

I-- I think he's doing just fine with us.

Right? I mean...

he's a pain in the ass, but he's-he's not there yet.

No, not yet.

Estelle?

Estelle, can you hear us?

How long do you think it takes to accumulate this much stuff?

You and I both know crap can go downhill real fast.

There. There she is.

Estelle. Estelle?

Is she breathing?

We located the patient.

She's unconscious.

Estelle. Hey.

Can you-- Whoa. Can you hear me? What?

What's-what's going on?

Estelle, we're firefighters.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. We're here to help.

No, no, no, Estelle!

What's on that paper?

Get back!

We got a fire rapidly spreading on the Charlie side

and there's some kind of accelerant fueling it.

Patient's secure. We're just trying

to get out of here. Greencrest,

Engine 1591.

Wellness check has escalated to fire.

Requesting additional units.

Sending an attack line in now.

Copy that, 1591.

Perez, let's pull a inch and three-quarter line

to the door to go interior.

Who knows what type of fuel we'll see inside?

Copy, Cap.

Is Estelle okay? What can I do?

Just sit tight and trust us.

Walter?

It's time for your meds.

Walter?

Walter?

Hey. Is anybody else in there?

'Kay, thanks.

Uh, did you see the elder, retired Chief Leone up there?

Mm-mm. Not up there.

Chief, you're still here? Yeah.

Saw your car leaving earlier.

No, no, no.

Uh...

Okay.

Walter.

Cap? It's Birch.

What, did his results already come in?

No, the coroner told me

that Birch's body was cremated this afternoon

without the autopsy.

Wait, cremated.

So, what, his body's just gone now?

Was it an accident?

I mean, that would be a huge coincidence.

But do I sound paranoid?

No.

No. Okay, look, look, look...

I mean, my experience in here--

paranoia's justified.

Okay. I'm gonna make some phone calls,

and I'm-a start with the DOC.

Watch the guys.

Here, come on. Move.

Wait, wait,

wait, wait! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Estelle, we got to go.

Whatever spilled is clearly volatile.

It-It-It's solvent.

For cleaning Gordon's car parts.

He loves his tinkering.

That's why I'm saving them for him.

- I'm protecting them. - Okay,

it's not about your things anymore, okay?

It's about your life. Come on.

Bode, we'll have hoses in there soon.

Yeah, copy. Hoses? No!

Please, if you soak everything,

it'll be destroyed.

Come on. We got to drag her out of here.

Okay, but if she's kicking and screaming,

this stuff could all come down around us.

Estelle, do you know what I see here?

A wreck? No.

That iron. And a blouse.

You were gonna iron a blouse, 'cause you were gonna feel good,

you were gonna look good. You had plans.

Hope.

Look, Gordon's in your past.

You can leave him and all of his stuff there.

Now,

we got to go. Come on.

No, I-I-I can't. I can't leave.

Cap, we got an uncooperative patient.

Fire's heating up.

No!

It's burning everything!

Our exit's blocked.

We need to change the flow path of this fire.

Change it?

Okay, yeah, copy, Leone.

I'll change it. Delta side?

Yeah, affirmative, Cap. All right. Hey, Perez,

wait on the hoses.

But close that door now! Copy, Cap!

Wool is naturally flame-resistant.

We're gonna keep you safe, whether you want us to or not.

Jake's redirecting the flow path.

Try to draw this fire away from us, create an exit.

It's working.

Fire's getting pulled to the low pressure outside.

That's a hell of a flow path. We got to go now. Come on.

It won't stay like this forever. Come on, go.

Chief Leone taking over IC at Bridgeford Avenue.

Great timing.

Heard your wellness check escalated.

What's, uh... what's going on?

Got a little out of hand, but...

Okay, right over here.

...everything's under control now.

Nice and easy. Patient was found

unconscious, but was roused. She's okay.

Everything I saved is ruined.

Because of you.

Lean back for me, ma'am.

Estelle, you're okay. Come on.

Oh, Finn. Hey.

Hey, Estelle.

Let's go get you checked out, yeah?

Never easy, getting blame for saving the day.

You two did good.

This was supposed to be an easy call.

Hey, um...

I don't want to let my past sink me, so...

why don't you take me on that harmless little first date?

Silver Alert. Missing senior.

Bode.

It's Papa Leone.

So, we have a missing senior with dementia.

We're gonna break into pairs.

Head into town.

We're gonna look in restaurants and stores

and, let's be honest, bars.

Talk to people. Talk to the whole community.

You have Walter's picture in the emails.

No lead is too small.

Thank you, everybody.

Uh, Jake?

Can you, um, hold down the fort?

Hey, hey. Yeah, don't worry about it.

I'll liaise with Greencrest here.

Thank you.

You coming with me?

You want to ride together?

My new irrational fear.

It's not never getting over Bode but...

not ever having closure about it,

like the hoarder we saved today.

Sounds like you need to talk about it.

Yeah.

With him.

What?

Did they find Walter?

No, it's my guy at the DOC.

They're not the ones that blocked Birch's autopsy.

It was...

They're just as surprised as I was.

What-what does that mean?

Well, I just...

I don't know, but I need to call Birch's sister.

Sorry. Um...

Hello? Uh, Wendy, hi.

This is Captain Eve Edwards.

Uh, I just got word back from the DOC.

I don't really know exactly how to say this,

but your brother, um... Stop.

I can't talk to you.

No, I-- Look, I can only imagine

how disappointing this is for you,

um, but the autopsy is v... I know.

I... changed my mind about it.

I... I asked for the cremation.

But why? What happened?

Legally, I can't.

I'm sorry. What?

No, Wendy--

"Legally"?

Did a lawyer approach her?

And changed her mind?

Man...

I'm sorry, I just-- I can't help but think

that someone's trying to cover this up.

And I know that seems insane, but...

what else could it be?

Bode, try to hope for the best.

Birch died. Now my grandfather's missing.

It's kind of hard to hope.

Hey, wait, look.

That's Sharon's car.

He just leave it?

Is he in there?

He's gone.

He can't have gotten far.

Not on foot.

I have a pill stash.

I know you're not suggesting we get high right now.

No.

Someone I know gave 'em to me for my knee.

And I haven't taken them.

But I haven't thrown 'em away.

Whenever it feels like my past is really behind me...

You feel like it comes knocking at your door?

To undo all the progress you made?

That's the feeling, yeah.

They found him at home.

Sharon's car?

I drove my own damn car!

It's parked right outside!

Just look out the window!

It's not. It--

You drove it into a ditch, Walter.

A ditch? But the most important thing

is you're okay.

I didn't drive anything into a d--

I was driving big rigs before you were even born, young lady.

Nonno, you're-you're safe-- Don't you talk to me like that!

If I talked to my father like that, he'd knock me on my ass!

All right, Dad--

Don't "Dad" me!

I'm not gonna stand here and be accused of stealing a car.

I had a call up in Garnerville today.

Yeah. That's where I had to go.

What do you think, I came back here and took your car?

I didn't steal a car.

Yeah, yeah.

You know what, you're--

You're right, Dad, it...

it was me.

Um, you got that call

and I needed a car, so I took Sharon's and

I'm so-- I should've just said something

about it earlier, sorry, my bad.

It was Vinny.

Why didn't you just say so? Why--

Uh, I'm sorry. What, what...

What's wrong with you?

Sorry.

I'm really sorry, Dad.

Yeah, I... I know you are.

Look, let's just go upstairs, Dad. I--

Right? We're good.

We're good, right? Mm-hmm.

Everything's... gonna be okay.

Yeah. Come on, let's go upstairs.

Why did you do that, Vinny?

Oh, my gosh.

Hey.

Uh, you were right.

Violet's fine.

Skiing was good?

Yeah, yeah, no rescue toboggin was required.

You'll stop worrying.

But this worry?

This is a sign that you're on the right track.

Oh, what, for spinning out?

For starting something good.

Jake, you really like Violet.

Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

Thanks.

I'm so glad we found him.

Yeah, thanks for helping out.

Of course.

Hey, you got a minute?

It's about us.

Gabs, I'm-- Seeing Audrey.

I know.

I'm not making moves.

It's just...

when we ended things,

I was...

Not yourself.

Of course, I know that.

I wanted to help.

And I needed to help myself.

And I did.

And now I'm good.

And I want to say...

for closure,

that it wasn't you who screwed us up.

It was me.

It takes two.

There she is.

It's good to see you doing better.

Incoming.

A thank you for today.

All of you. Thanks.

That's... super nice of you to bring this.

Appreciate it. Hey.

Time to go?

How's Estelle?

She's staying with my parents tonight.

Which is not where I live, by the way.

Uh...

I'm Finn, in case you forgot.

Finn.

- Finn who has his own place. - Mm-hmm.

I'm Gabriela and I have a roommate.

Ah, so...

we'd have to hang at my place, if we were to hang.

Is it a nice place? Oh, yeah. I mean, crown molding...

Oh. ...built-ins, a breakfast nook, even.

You'd have to see it.

Yeah?

Anytime.

Well, at least we can get sleep tonight

knowing it'll go off

if Walter tries to wander off.

Uh, Babcock was texting me.

I was paying her to fix up the Airstream.

I thought maybe next summer...

Doesn't matter. I'm...

I'm gonna tell her to stop.

I don't know what I was thinking.

You were thinking...

that two months ago Dad was

driving himself around.

Cooking his own meals.

And you were probably thinking we could handle this.

Right? Mm.

We're not gonna be enough for him, Share.

Not anymore.

So, what, you decided

you didn't want to shell out for real tickets?

No.

I-I was gonna get VIP seats.

Like, you know, the ones with actual chairs.

But they were sold out.

So you're improvising.

♪ Wildflowers and wine... ♪

How am I doing?

Eh.

I've seen worse.

I, uh, saw my dad

improvise tonight, with my Nonno.

None of was easy, but...

he was the best version of himself.

♪ We're still here dancing ♪

And he put aside years of beef.

♪ After all this time... ♪

About this, you know?

We both have a lot of baggage.

But I want, I want to believe that we can follow my dad,

and put it all in our rearview...

Peaches.

Stop.

You want to know why I was in prison?

Only if you want to tell me.

♪ I've never seen... ♪

I stole a car.

I've heard worse.

♪ One at a time... ♪

The-the owner...

got gas and went to pay.

I got behind the wheel and took off.

And, um...

...I was a mile away when I heard crying.

♪ Feeling the way I do... ♪

He was in the back seat.

He was just a little thing.

He was still in diapers.

And I didn't know what to do. I...

just pulled over on the side of the road and...

...just sat there.

♪ I need you... ♪

Froze.

I couldn't...

drive back there and I couldn't leave the baby and...

♪ When I look, look in your eyes... ♪

...by the time the cops showed up,

I was high out of my mind.

♪ And wine... ♪

It caught up to me.

Like you said, things always catch up.

♪ Background of our lives ♪

These pills?

It's not just my knee.

When Birch died, I wanted to take them.

And the Silver Alert, I wanted to take them.

But I didn't.

That's you outrunning those demons.

Holding these...

...and resisting taking them feels like control.

Power.

Never looking back.

That's really hot.

It is, I'm serious, it's...

...it's hot.

♪ Just an old scratchy record ♪

♪ Plays in the background of our lives ♪

♪ And we're still out here dancing ♪

♪ Lord, after all this time ♪

♪ Wildflowers and wine ♪

♪ We're still out here dancing ♪

♪ Lord, after all this time ♪

Ooh! ♪ Wildflowers ♪

♪ Wildflowers and wine. ♪

But why was it covered up?

We don't know yet.

Look, y'all, I...

hate that I couldn't help Birch.

That I couldn't save him.

But I promise y'all right now

that I won't stop until I figure out what happened to him.

We will get justice for Birch.

Where's Perez?

Crashed early. No.

Nope.

This is Crew meeting. Excuse me.

Hey.

Manny?

What's wrong?

Hey, Cap.

I...

just feel a little nauseous.

You're barely breathing.

Oh, my God, you're sweating,

but no fever.

Just like Birch.

Greencrest, this is Three Rock Crew Four.

I have a patient with respiratory distress.

And I need an ambulance right now.

Copy that, Three Rock Crew Four.
