Original subtitles

- Everything that mattered to us was in that house.

- The stove had a short in the ignition unit.

This wasn't your fault.

- Hey, can you give me a hand actually?

- You should come to Molly's tonight.

- I'll see you there.

- Wasn't Vasquez supposed to stop by?

- I guess he changed his mind.

- Van Meter guided me, put his trust in me,

taught me most of what I know about fire investigation.

- Dad, can you hear me?

- Numbers are rising.

- He's on his own.

Ha, not bad.

It's a solid mid-winter pace.

- It's Van Meter.

I bet he's so glad to be back at home.

- Yeah, he is.

He's already got a case he wants to talk to me about.

- Can't keep a good man down. - Nope.

Hey, Squad's off this shift.

I'm just gonna stop by his place

before heading back to the firehouse.

- Great.

I bet that's what's best for him, just keep him busy.

- Yeah.

He never liked sitting still.

- And speaking of, break's over.

- Thank you.

So what's with the frou-frou toast?

It's, sprouted.

What is it sprouting?

It's what they stock at Firehouse 40.

I've kind of grown to like it.

- What has that place done to you?

- Hey, you know, they're not half bad over there.

I mean, it's no 51.

But I gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised.

How's the house hunt going?

- Don't get me started.

Every single house that we see

has got some crazy deal-breaker.

I mean, it's--it's just-- it's turned into this

full-fledged Goldilocks situation.

- What about rebuilding on the old lot?

Is that still off the table?

- Believe me, we would love to, Cindy especially,

because that's her dream.

But with the construction costs, what they are now,

it's just not realistic.

I don't know.

The search continues, and by the time this is over,

I will have viewed every single house in the tri-state area.

- Well, you're always saying

you wanna see more of the world.

- I told him I don't have time to lie around

like a CPR mannequin.

There's work to do.

- Yeah, it looks like it.

I take it this is the one you were telling me about?

- Yeah, someone set fire to an underground transformer,

knocked out power for the whole neighborhood.

The transformer was under the sidewalk

covered by a metal grate used for venting.

Flammable substance was poured through it.

Lab tests confirmed it was grease.

- Looks like somebody thought they were

dumping into a storm drain.

- My theory too.

I looked into the closest restaurant,

Valencia Bar and Grill.

But they've got a valid grease disposal contract.

So why risk dumping illegally?

- Yeah, something doesn't add up.

- That's why I want you to talk to the shop owner next door.

He called in the fire.

No one's taken a statement yet,

and for all we know, he saw our suspect.

- Why not let the interim OFI head take care of this?

Captain Hargrave?

She comes from forensics, not fieldwork.

And since when did I trust someone else

to finish my cases?

Besides you, I mean.

- Since never. - Yeah.

So you gonna help or not? - You know I will.

- Novak. - What?

- You're not gonna believe this.

I just got a text from Sam.

He wants to come by 51 today. - Sam Carver?

- He is in Chicago with his Denver firehouse

for some kind of training thing,

and his chief heard about the Joint Duty Program.

- Well, that's kind of cool.

- Yeah, so Carver wants to stop by and get the lowdown on it

so they can maybe start one up.

- Violet, that's amazing.

- Yeah.

- And also, must be kind of weird.

When's the last time you talked to him?

- It's been a while, months.

But maybe in a good way, like, the air is clear now maybe.

- Yeah, totally.

- Yeah, so I should text him back,

tell him, yes, he should come by.

Right? - Definitely.

- Okay.

- Morning. - Morning.

- Hey, I'm sorry I didn't make it to Molly's the other night.

No problem.

- She's texting with a firefighter

who used to work here. He's coming by later.

- Truck 81, Ambulance 61,

person injured near exit 32 on I-90 inbound.

- Ballard, find the breaker box.

Cut the power.

Vasquez, get up there and secure the victim.

- I'm on it!

- Herrmann, get the aerial in position

directly under the victim. - You got it, Lieutenant!

- Let's go!

- Fire department! Can you hear me?

- Hey, we need to cut that power now!

- We're still finding the breaker.

For now, find another anchor point.

- Copy that!

I got you.

Victim's secure!

- Found it, Lieutenant. - Kill it!

- Breaker's off.

- Keep it coming!

- Herrmann, let's get a Sked up there!

- I'm on it!

You all right? - Yeah, yeah. I'm good.

- All right. I got him!

Give me some line.

Got him? - Yeah, lower the stretcher.

- Copy.

- All right. Let's check his airway.

- Breathing is a little shallow but pulse is pretty good.

- All right. Wow.

Okay, no electrical burns.

No entry or exit wounds.

This is one seriously lucky guy.

Okay, let's load him and get him to Med.

Here we go. Thank you.

- With a sign that big and flashy,

they're not going after justice.

They're selling their own snake oil.

- Somehow, I never knew that accident lawyers

were such a trigger for you.

- Shameless opportunists.

And that so-called Uncle Larry, he's no different.

- One of them do you dirty or something?

- They're doing society dirty.

- You've seen those commercials, right?

- No.

- Workplace slip and fall?

Uncle Larry's got your back.

Car accident?

He won't let some big insurance company

take you for a ride,

'cause when Larry's done with them, they'll be crying uncle.

- I rest my case.

- Hey. - Hi.

- I'm just starting to spin out about the whole Carver thing.

Talk to us.

- What's it gonna be like seeing him

after so long--and then so long without talking?

- Okay, well, there were never any bad feelings, right?

It was just...

- Heartbreaking.

- Yeah, heartbreaking.

- And now he's gonna be right here in front of me.

And what if I see him and I can't handle it, and I just--

I wanna run in the other direction?

- Well, I guess you're not really

gonna know until it happens.

I guess not.

- Well, whatever it is, we are here for it.

- Thank you.

- What time did you see the flash?

- I was locking up for the night,

so it must have been around 7:00.

- Anybody else nearby that could have started the fire?

- No, the street was empty.

As soon as I saw the smoke come pouring out, I called the cops.

- And any of the restaurants along the block?

Any that could have been illegally dumping grease?

- Valencia is the only kitchen around,

except for the food trucks that park here on the weekends.

- I'll take the names of those trucks.

- Sure, but I gave them to your guys already.

- You did?

- Yeah, another fire investigator came by.

Captain Hall, Hart?

- Captain Hargrave?

- That's the one.

- I'll take the names of those trucks anyway.

For some reason, they never made it into the file.

- Firehouse 51.

Correct, this morning.

Did he give a reason?

Okay.

We'll be ready, yeah.

Guys, let's huddle up.

So I just got a call from CFD's

Office of Professional Standards and Practices.

Turns out Uncle Larry, that lawyer,

he is not just a pretty face on a billboard.

He owns the sign and the land

where today's incident took place.

So he's been calling around the CFD

to see which firehouse responded.

- Do we know what he wants?

- He wants statements from anyone who was there.

- That can't be good.

You think he's coming after 51?

- These guys, they make 800 bucks an hour.

I bet that he's not coming across town

to pat us on the back.

- My God. - He's here.

- Already?

- That's Sam Carver.

- I'm glad you're here.

- Me too.

- Look at you.

Hey.

- Hey.

- Hi. - How you doing?

- Hey, what's with the hair, man?

They got no rules in Denver?

- We've been traveling and training for a few weeks.

There's no need to shave.

- Well, you look amazing.

How are you? How is Denver?

- Everything's going great.

Thanks.

I miss you guys, though.

- Ambulance 61, person injured...

- Sorry. Sorry.

Hey, talk Joint Duty when I get back.

- No problem. - Cool.

- Lots of catching up to do.

- Yeah, we'll keep them busy.

Sal, this is Sam.

- Nice to meet you.

- I was walking past.

I heard someone calling for help.

He's up here.

- What happened?

- It's stuck.

God, my hand.

- We can't free it. It's too entangled.

- Am I gonna lose my hand?

- Let's just get you safe first, okay?

- Give him 25 micrograms of fentanyl.

I'll call it in. - Okay.

Hey, Ambo 61 to Main, requesting backup

for a technical disentanglement.

- Copy, 61.

A fire company was already dispatched.

ETA any minute now.

- Hey, Vi. - Hey, Mouch.

- What are we looking at?

- His hand is twisted up pretty bad.

No arterial spray, but we can't pull it out

and risk tearing something.

- Hey, pal.

What's your name?

- Brad.

- Just grab me the chain breaker.

That'll do the trick.

- Copy that.

- You know, I ride a vintage bike myself.

I was thinking about adding some custom pipes like those.

You do that work yourself?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

- All right, keep him upright. Don't let it pull--

- Reinhart, lean into him. - Copy.

- Here you go, Lieutenant.

All right, you hold him steady.

Okay, easy.

Can you get it? - All right.

- Got it? - There we go.

Let's get him on his back, keep his arm elevated.

Perfect.

Awesome.

- Pressure's low.

- All right. We'll run fluids.

Help us get him on the stretcher.

- Yeah. - Don't worry.

We got it, Lieutenant.

- There we go. - Okay.

- How's it looking?

- Lines are clean. - Great.

- Here we go.

- Get a load of this guy.

- I need to speak to someone in charge.

- I'm gonna head back before I say something

that we're both gonna regret.

- Mr. Langer, hi. I'm Lieutenant Stella Kidd.

It was my unit that responded to the incident this morning.

- What the hell happened out there?

- Man you hired to fix your billboard almost died.

- I've been at this 25 years, and after what happened today,

you can bet your ass that a multimillion-dollar

lawsuit is on its way.

I promise you that.

- The city is broke as it is

and you are threatening to sue us?

We were out there saving a man's life.

- No, no, no, no, I'm not-- you got it wrong here.

I'm not gonna sue the fire department.

I'm the target here. - The target?

- Yeah, that billboard tech, the one that got shocked,

he's seeing dollar signs.

The guy's already lawyered up.

They're coming after me 'cause it's my property.

I need your help.

- What kind of help?

- Well, you guys were on the scene.

You saw it all.

So I just need information so I can get my ducks in a row.

I think that's fair, isn't it?

- I'm gonna talk to my guys.

We will look over the incident reports,

and then we'll get back to you.

- Great, thank you.

Okay, here's my card. You call me day or night.

Thank you.

- I'm wall-to-wall with training stuff until I leave,

but I'll find a way to get to Molly's tomorrow,

see everybody.

- Whatever you can spare, we'll take it.

- I'm sorry I don't have more time this trip.

I didn't expect--

- Don't apologize.

I'm just--I'm really glad to see you.

Hey, guys.

Thanks for joining.

I was just telling Carver about the origins of the program

and how we figured it could help everybody involved.

- She figured. This program is all Violet.

- It's a great idea.

- No, no, no, Novak helped out a lot.

And Vasquez was the first one to sign up for the program.

You wanna talk a little bit about it

from a firefighter's perspective?

- Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Well, I went into it thinking it'd be second nature.

But, you know, it took a beat.

You gotta think differently, which is cool.

And I'll tell you what, next shift in 81,

just felt like I had a second radar up, if you know I mean.

I get that.

- Yeah, like you could see the scene differently.

- Good for both sides of the job.

- Yeah, yeah, exactly, man.

And training was hell.

Please.

- Violet brought in enough chicken breasts

to feed a small army, put me in my place,

and sharpened my IV skills.

- I did that to teach you, not to shame you.

- Little bit of both. Come on, admit it.

- Well, did I teach you to place

an IV like a superstar or not?

- Okay, Vasquez, you were supposed to be

helping her sell the program.

- Fine, fine, no, I came out of it a better firefighter.

And I would do it again in a heartbeat.

- I bet.

Can you show me how you've been scheduling everything?

- Yeah, absolutely.

Novak, I think you brought the schedule in with you, right?

- Yeah, yeah, I have them somewhere here.

- Hey.

Ballard said you wanted to see me,

and I can only assume it's because of a certain visit

from our blood-sucking uncle.

- I read over the incident reports

from the billboard this morning.

And you wrote that the victim's harness

was clipped onto the electrical conduit.

- It's a pretty small pipe.

I mean, it was never meant to support that kind of weight.

- So did it look like his harness snagged

onto the conduit after he fell,

or did it look like he clipped himself onto it?

Because if it is the latter--

- Then he electrocuted himself,

and our victim is then at fault.

- Yes.

And you are the only one with the vantage point

being on the aerial.

So what did you see exactly?

Well, he--

he may have clipped onto the conduit.

My guess would be he did it because it was closer.

- He may have.

- All right, fine.

I saw it.

It was clear as day.

And, I mean, are we really gonna go out of our way

to help this Uncle Larry guy?

- These become public records.

Remember? So-- - Yeah.

- In any case, we don't get to choose who we help.

We answer the call.

That is the job.

- All right.

Anything else, Lieutenant?

- Yes.

This is Larry's info.

And you are gonna deliver it to him right after shift.

- Do you recognize those names?

- Sure.

It's every food truck connected to

the transformer fire investigation.

- Right.

So if you're aware of it, how come

they never made it into the official report?

You being the interim captain, is there any reason

why they were withheld from Van Meter?

- What would that be? - I don't know.

But if you make the solve, that sure makes the case

for you to stay in that seat.

- I'm not making any case, Lieutenant.

I'm very aware I'm in an interim position.

I don't know what file you're looking at.

The witness statement is in our system.

Not only that, but we ran with that lead.

And I identified the food truck responsible for the fire.

They were reported to the authorities.

- So you're telling me the case is closed?

- Yes, weeks ago.

Van Meter closed it himself.

Did Van Meter put you on this case?

- Well, no, I--

I was doing some follow-up on some open cases,

and I must have pulled the wrong file.

It's-- it's my mistake, Captain.

- If you want a copy of the file, one of the assistants

up front can help you out.

- It's a client gift.

Pretty cool?

- I guess if you're into urban planning.

Incident reports you requested.

- Oof.

All right.

Well, let's cut to it. How screwed am I?

- You'll be happy to know that the billboard tech you hired,

it was because of his own actions

that put him in the hospital.

- Well, relieved, maybe, but not happy, no.

- Either way, I guess you're off the hook.

- You know, I saw that look on your face

when I came by the firehouse.

I've seen it a lot.

Just so you know, what I do, it's not what people think,

not all the time.

Anyway, like the client that gave me that

was a city bus driver.

She drove a lot of those routes herself.

And then one day, bus fell into a trench

that wasn't properly covered, left her with a broken back,

paralyzed from the waist down.

Developers said it was her fault, lobbied the city

to yank her pension as leverage.

So I took that case pro bono, and I dug up a ton of proof,

said that that trench had been unsafe for weeks.

I got my client a lot of money,

much more than she ever would have made in five lifetimes

driving a bus.

Doesn't bring her legs back, but...

it's a whole lot better than nothing.

- So you hold people who screw up accountable

when things go south?

- Yeah, that's right.

- You gonna keep me in suspense?

What's the status on that case?

- Well, your instincts were right.

It wasn't anybody from the Valencia Bar and Grill.

Turns out it was a food truck driver parked nearby.

- I knew you'd crack it.

- The thing is, Tom, that case had been solved already

before your injury.

Captain Hargrave had already

ID'd the vendor responsible, and...

you signed off on the final report.

- Yeah, of course the case was closed.

I only needed you to double check Hargrave's work.

After all, she's a forensics expert,

not a field investigator.

- Right, I get it.

- I was just being thorough.

- I think maybe might be a good idea to see somebody.

A neurologist, you know, just to be safe.

What are you talking about safe?

You can see I'm fine.

- Yeah, but a doc like that, I mean,

can give you a better idea of exactly what's going on.

I think your daughter, Carrie, might wanna know too.

You know, taking a break, it might not be such a bad idea.

- Who the hell do you think you are,

telling your captain what to do?

You're way out of your lane, Lieutenant.

- Here, let me help.

- Don't come in here telling me what to do.

Understand?

You're not family.

You're just a firefighter who works for me.

You can go.

Dismissed.

- Yes, sir.

- So the chief has had me on his hip for a while.

But I was surprised that he brought me along

for the training trip, so.

Sounds like you made quite the impression.

- Yeah, of course he has, taught him everything he knows.

- My chief has heard an earful about you.

Believe me.

- You know what, guys? Next round's on me.

Carver, feel free to take it up a notch, man.

- I don't drink, but thanks.

Sorry.

- So how's the new guy doing?

- He's a smoke eater.

- He's been a good addition to the team so far.

- Yeah, he's a really good dude.

- He plays things a little close to the vest,

but we're chipping away.

- He's been starting to open up recently.

Feels like we're finally getting to know him.

- Yeah, but you are missed, Carver,

if that's what you're getting at.

- Back in a sec. I wanna say hey to Weathersby.

- All right.

- Ooh, Carver.

Listen, man, I just wanna say that

I think it's great that you're bringing

the Joint Duty Program to Denver.

- Yeah, okay.

- Well, no, I just mean that Violet's worked

super hard to bring it to life,

so you know it means a lot to her.

I know exactly how much it means to Violet,

maybe more than anybody.

I don't need you to tell me.

- I'm sorry. Do we have a problem?

- There's no problem.

Violet has been through hell in the past.

And she deserves the best.

Not some hard-partying tough guy

with a chip on his shoulder.

- He was so angry.

For as long as I've worked arson,

it's always been Van Meter right there with me.

No hard words, no fights.

- You know it's not really about you.

- I should have called Carrie, let her handle it.

Like he said, I'm-- I'm not family.

- Going behind his back to his daughter

would have felt like a betrayal--to him and to you.

And you may not be family, but your bond is real,

and it's deep.

- He was breathing so rough.

Physically, he's just...different.

I don't know if he'll be able to pass the physicals again.

Ever.

That must be killing him.

- It's probably why he's lashing out.

Yeah, it reminds me of what you used to say about your dad,

just raging about being disrespected.

You know, work was his life too.

- I didn't have much sympathy back then.

Things were so bad between us.

- All Benny wanted was to know

that his life's work was worth it.

Just to feel needed,

appreciated.

- Too late to fix that now.

And even if it wasn't, I don't know what I could have done

or what I can do now for Van Meter.

- Hey, there. - Top of the morning.

Ooh, guess what.

I got a lead on a 2022 Challenger this morning.

She might be the one.

- That's very exciting. - Yeah.

Here, check her out.

Ooh.

She's a beaut. How many miles?

- 26--26,000.

- It's not bad. - Right?

It's not bad at all.

Hey, that Carver guy, is he coming around again today or--

- I heard he's coming by the firehouse later

but only to say his fond farewells.

- Seems to me like he's having a hard time

letting go?

I'll see you out there.

- Hey, Severide, wait up.

- Hey. - I wanted to ask you.

Do you think it's possible that I could get my hands

on some of that OFI paperwork

from the house fire at my place?

- You want the cause and origin reports?

- Specifically, it's anything that's related

to the oven unit causing the fire.

- What for?

nothing, really.

It's just I may have retained

Uncle Larry as my legal counsel.

No, it turns out he's not so bad.

I mean, he's a great guy to have in your corner

if something goes wrong.

- Yeah, I've seen the commercials.

- Okay, well, Larry thinks that with the OFI evidence

that he might be able to help Cindy and the kids

and me get back up on our feet.

But I want you to know none of this would be possible

if it hadn't been for you and Van Meter

being so dogged in your investigation.

I owe you guys.

- There you are.

I searched the whole firehouse for you.

- Sorry, I got caught up looking for old Magill forceps

since the CFD won't replace the damaged ones, so.

I'm so glad to hear how well everything's

going for you, Sam. - Same.

The Joint Duty Program, it's something.

- Yeah.

I guess everything worked out for the best.

- Yeah.

Talk soon.

- Sounds good.

- Lieutenant Severide again.

How's our friend Van Meter doing?

- Not sure.

I haven't been able to get in touch the last day or so.

- He's probably just getting bombarded with well wishes.

So what brings you over?

- It's about the captain, actually.

Tom Van Meter is the best fire captain

that has ever led OFI, and I've known plenty.

- So I've heard.

- He saved a lot of lives and a lot of livelihoods.

After everything he's given to this department,

I think he deserves the chance to be a part of it

for as long as he wants to be, even during recovery.

- What are you asking?

If he's still in recovery, he can't come into the offices.

And ultimately, if he can't pass the physical,

he can't be in the CFD.

Simple as that.

- That's exactly it.

I've been thinking maybe it's not that simple.

Maybe there's another way.

- So at the end of the day, are you glad that

you got to see Carver?

- Yeah, I think so.

I don't know.

I panicked at the last minute about the idea

of saying goodbye again, so I tried to hide.

- Did he find you?

- He did.

Then he was just so cool and unemotional about everything.

It just kind of pissed me off.

You know?

- Yeah, but who knows what's really going through his head?

Wow.

Vasquez at Molly's two off shifts in a row.

This is new.

- Yeah.

- Hey, what's up, Sal? - What's going on?

- Nothing much. Join us.

- Hey! I've been waiting for you.

- What's this?

- All right, you know that billboard lawyer, Uncle Larry?

- It pays to have a lawyer in the family.

- Yeah, that's him. Okay, this is a long story.

But he ended up looking into the stove that caused our fire.

And it turns out that we have a slam dunk

liability case against the manufacturer.

- Is that right?

- Yeah, so he sends out a demand letter,

and he's expecting a, you know,

the back and forth and back and forth.

And they don't wanna fight.

They just wanna make this go away.

They send back an offer.

Go ahead.

Take a look.

Holy hell.

Larry really did make them cry uncle.

Herrmann, this is one serious payout.

- Yeah.

And it's enough to rebuild on our old lot.

And that's what we're gonna do.

- Wow.

Herrmann, this is great.

- Yeah. - Really.

Brother, after everything you've been through,

and you finally get to go home.

- Hey.

Are you okay, Mouch? - Why? Yeah.

No, I'm just-- I'm happy for you.

- Come on, you think that I can't tell when something's up?

Come on. I wanna know.

- It's Firehouse 40.

It's--it's not going great.

- Okay. I don't understand.

You said the crew, great.

You know, the bread.

- I hate the bread.

And I hate the way those guys see me, you know?

Like I'm just some old-timer.

They got no clue how hard I worked to get where I am

and the sacrifices it took,

and not just my sacrifices, yours too.

Honestly, I think it just hit me.

This might really be how I finish out the job.

And if it's not at 51,

I don't see what the point is.

- Okay.

You know, I stood on the burned out lot

that used to be our home.

And I thought to myself, it's over.

We're never gonna get back.

But now...

anything can happen, Mouch.

You just gotta believe that.

And I know that you're gonna get back home too.

- You're halfway decent at that, you know?

Giving advice.

- Don't let that get out, because I got enough people

bothering me as is.

- Hey, Captain. Sorry to just show up.

I wasn't sure-- - I'm glad you're here.

Come in.

I'm the one who owes an apology.

I'm sorry, Kelly.

I know it wasn't easy for you to say what you did.

Hell, it took nerve.

I told Carrie what you said.

She went with me to Med yesterday

to talk to a zoo full of doctors.

- Yeah, how'd it go?

- Well, turns out I'm an old guy in need

of some repair and a little R&R.

But I'm not giving up, Kelly.

Just so you know, I'm gonna prove those doctors wrong.

And I'll beat that fit-for-duty exam.

Might be a long shot, but it's not impossible.

- Well, if anyone can do it, it's you.

But in the meantime, while you're getting assessed,

take a break.

We should put you to use.

- What are you talking about?

- All the consulting firms that we use at OFI,

like the ones who dug into Herrmann's stove company,

I mean, you know how much the department relies on them.

- Of course.

- Well, Captain Hargrave was hoping that you could

help out in that capacity.

- You mean go private?

- Well, at least at first, yeah.

I mean, it would save our asses having someone like you there

with all the backlogged cases we have.

And I know you have a lot on your plate, but...

is that something that you'd be interested in, Captain?

- If they need me, then yeah,

I suppose I might have time for that.

Looks like Dr. John Frost is finally off shift.

See ya. both:.

- He does not seem like a John.

- Can't you at least pretend that you're sad to leave us?

You guys, I'm--

I'm really gonna miss you.

And also, see ya.

Damn it.

I forgot to tell her I got the new Challenger.

Yeah, it's in Frostbite Blue.

- Very nice.

Yes, Kelly would approve.

- Yeah, that's why I'm on soda and bitters all night,

you know, I'm driving, so--

- You should show us your car, 'cause we're gearheads too.

- Hell yeah.

I mean, it's parked right outside.

Come on, I'll show you.

- You know what?

I gotta start cleaning up.

You two go.

- I'll give you the tour next shift.

- Okay. - Promise you it's worth it.

- All right. - Thanks, Stella.

- Good night. Bye.

- Thanks.

Wow.

- It's something, right?

- Yeah, very cool Frostbite Blue.

I like it.

- You want a ride?

I owe you one.

- Honestly, I'm in kind of a bad headspace right now.

So it's probably better for me to get an Uber

and ruin another driver's night instead.

- Whatever you say.

Hey, Vi.

- Yeah? - Question for you.

- Okay.

- When I first got to 51,

Kidd told me that I was replacing a hell of a driver.

I'm guessing that was Carver?

- Yeah, that was Carver.

Why?

- Just so you know, I'm not Carver.

Okay?

I am nothing like him.

- I'll take the ride.
