It's bad, mom.

Don't seem like the doctors think he's gonna make it.

My god.

Are you with him now?

No, he's getting treatment.

It's not fair.

I finally get to know my dad after all these years.

Now he could already be gone.

God. You poor thing.

Look, tell me what hospital you're at. I'm coming.

In this weather? No, mom.

Look, you cannot be alone right now.

Ryan's here with the whole team.

Then you need somebody looking out for your interest.

What do you mean by my interest?

He could be dying.

Well, then this may be the last chance we get to make sure you're taken care of.

The worst is still to come.

This could be a once-in-a-generation event.

We've had reports of tornadoes across town,

and conditions are ripe for more.

Anybody want a soda?

- Thank you. - Cheers.

Hey, doc, when did you get in?

Just now.

We just dropped off the guy from the water tower at St. rays.

- He gonna make it? - Yeah, he'll be fine.

He's not the only one.

Dad's gonna pull through this.

I hope so, man.

Then again, you haven't seen as many people struck by lightning as I have.

No, I suppose I haven't.

Look, I know you don't think I'm ready to become a firefighter...

no, man, I know you're not.

You got no idea what you're doing out there.

It's not even your fault, man.

I mean, three days ago, you were a damn stripper.

Maybe so, but our dad sees something in me.

He believes in me.

No offense. His judgment's been clouded since the moment you walked into his life.

I'm not gonna apologize for being born, Ryan.

I'm his son as much as you are, and I'm gonna prove to you he was right.

Put that uniform on...

You better.

And for the record, we prefer "exotic dancer."

Hey.

Where's Ryan? Hey. Do we know anything?

No, docs are still working on him. We did everything we could. I promise.

Hey, hey, hey, do not start grieving something that's not gone yet.

Mom...

Mom, this is...

This is blue.

Blue bennings.

Hello, ma'am. I'm the new cadet.

We all know that you're a lot more than that. Come here.

This can't be easy for you either, can it?

No, ma'am.

Okay, so they say that this next front is gonna be the biggest one that comes in.

Yeah, it's all over the news.

So, why are y'all still here?

We're oos.

Out of service?

With all hell raining down on Nashville?

How are we supposed to leave knowing dad's fighting for his life?

Is Samantha on duty?

Then he's in good hands.

I mean, he's being taken care of by his daughter-in-law.

Ex daughter-in-law.

You're joking.

She served me papers this morning.

I'm so sorry.

I really hoped that y'all would push through.

Yeah, I, did too.

Listen.

I know that you are hurting, but I want you to think,

what would your dad do if he was in your place right now?

Get back out there.

Okay.

All right, 113.

We're rolling out.

Let's get to the truck!

Let's go.

Wait, Ryan. You gotta fix your face.

'Cause you can't lead when it looks like your guts are hanging out.

Go. Go, go, go, go.

Thanks, mom.

We are driving into a mandatory evacuation zone.

So better buckle up, storm nation.

We're on the hunt for something guaranteed to blow y'all's minds.

You wanna tell them, joanne?

Well, I'm driving, Hank.

According to our readings, it's just out there lurking in the dark.

Boom. Look at that monster.

A mesocyclone just descending like a mother ship.

About to touch down. Holy smokes.

That's gotta be an f2.

Check your readings, smart guy.

F3. Hell, yeah!

Most folks out here got enough good sense to get the hell away.

What do you say, storm nation? Should we go in for a closer look?

They think we should, joanne.

That's what I'm talking about!

What the heck was that?

Wicked! Frozen corn!

It happens when a twister's outer bands suck it

right into the atmosphere where it freezes and then rains back down to earth.

That's right. Killer corn, baby.

Ain't nature great?

Watch out for the hay!

That is one angry-looking sob.

- How far out is it? - About a half mile that way.

Ryan, you okay?

- Yeah. - Good. Because you're up, lieutenant.

Right.

Okay, everyone. 113, let's do it for cap.

- For cap. - Cap!

It's so close.

Okay! We gotta start clearing people out of their cars!

They got no idea what's coming!

- Hey! Whose barn is that? - Mine!

- You have a storm shelter? - Yeah, in the basement!

Okay, get inside!

Sir, I need you to evacuate your vehicle!

Sir, go inside that barn!

Go to the barn now.

- It's getting bigger. - Out of the car! Go inside that barn!

Inside that barn!

Come on, come on!

Take shelter! Go!

All right, everyone, get down and crawl to the center of the space!

All right, that's the last of 'em!

All the cars on the road are clear!

All right, let's get down before anything else happens!

You gotta help me! Help my boyfriend!

Please. He's still out there!

- Where? - He's in our truck.

I swerved, and it rolled. It's behind the barn by the tanks.

Where the hell did that come from?

Doesn't matter.

Okay. Right now, you just need to get down in here.

What's your boyfriend's name?

Hank.

Okay!

Let's go get Hank!

She said he's over here! Behind the barn!

Watch out!

Run! Run! Get to cover!

I think I know what's happening.

The wind's carrying the tools in a circle!

I can see that, thank you!

So, how do we escape the flying cloud of death?

- Testudo formation! - What?

It's how the Roman legions dealt with enemy archers.

They used their shields to protect each other.

And you know that how?

My dad listens to a lot of hardcore history.

Okay.

Forward. March!

Okay, get ready.

Incoming. Now!

Everybody okay?

- Yeah. - All right.

Forward. March. Let's keep moving.

Hopefully, that was the last wave.

I think this is it, storm nation.

- It's been an honor. - Howdy.

You must be Hank.

- Yeah. - We're gonna get you of here.

My leg. It's trapped under the seat.

Taylor, pry it free on the other side!

Blue, help me with extraction.

Ryan, can you pull?

Okay.

Guys, we gotta go! We gotta go!

- Pull, pull, pull! - We gotta go!

- Pull, pull! - We gotta go!

Three, two, one, go!

Run!

Firenado!

What do we do about that?

For now, not a damn thing.

What she said.

Now that's great content.

Catch Your breath while you can

becaus e one final storm cell is coming and it's coming fast.

If you're in the affected areas,

please stay tuned to local news and official channels for updates.

- Blythe... - For those...

I didn't realize that you were here. Where's Ryan?

He's back out in the field.

- Did he tell you? - Yeah, he told me.

- Look, if I would have known, i... - no, I know.

You would have picked a better day to drop the bomb.

Nobody here will tell me anything.

Is my husband gonna be okay?

We've moved him to a room on the concierge floor, but...

- so, I can see him? - Yes, but he's still not responsive.

The echo that we did on his heart does show some tissue damage.

H-How much is "some"?

We just need to run some more labs to know for sure.

I'm sorry, but I gotta go.

Well, is Don gonna wake up, Sam?

There's no way to know, blythe.

Brings new meaning to put a fork in it.

Twister throws a mean fastball?

Well, hopefully, it was the last pitch of the game.

I doubt it. Dispatch just sent a weather report.

Looks like we got one more inning to play.

Great.

Hey, thank you, by the way.

For what?

Saving my life.

I just gave you a hard shove,

which I've been wanting to do since the day I met you.

You know, dad was right.

You got good instincts.

My technique is trash, right?

We can fix technique.

Do you think I can get there?

At the end of the day, you are your father's son.

So all the spot fires have been put out,

but the shrapnel kinda turned our lines into sprinklers.

Okay, get back to the station and fix them.

Hopefully, nothing too wild happens between now and then.

Hey.

Hey.

Can you hear me?

The doctors say that you may already be gone, but I know that's not true.

They don't know you like I do.

If you can hear me, can you squeeze my hand?

Can you squeeze my hand? Come on.

Come on, come on. Just squeeze my hand.

Lord, I am begging you...

If it is in your will, do not take my husband from me.

This man that I have loved from the first night that you brought him into my life.

Do you remember that?

You remember that, Donnie?

Y'all rolled up to the fire at the stables.

You jumped out of the truck wearing your fireman's uniform.

And daddy tried to warn me...

But I was already gone.

If this is your time,

then I want you to know that I'm grateful.

I'm so grateful to have spent the best years

of my life with the best man that I have ever known.

I love you. I love you.

I love you too, sweetheart.

You're awake. My god.

You are not gonna get rid of me that easy.

God. Thank you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Okay, sky's already getting dark again, so we gotta hustle.

- Taylor, can you grab fresh attack lines? - Yep, yep.

Blue, I'll show you what to do with the old ones.

- Right on. - Double-check the...

Okay, so this is your three-and-a-half-inch supply line.

And to get them off the truck, you're gonna use

what I like to call... A sandwich hold.

Careful. You might bite a hole through it.

Your lip.

It's funny.

My wife always says the same thing to me when I'm stressed.

At least she used to.

It's the er doc?

The one who treated dad.

You don't miss a beat, do you, blue?

You still love her.

How can you tell?

Most people I know don't smile like that when they say, "my wife."

Yeah. Well, that's all over now, I guess.

I'm sorry, man.

It's my mom.

Hey, mama, how's he doing?

He's awake.

Really?

Hey, everybody.

Cap's awake!

Whoo!

Told ya!

They think he's gonna do okay?

Well, they're running some tests right now.

He's got some broken ribs from your very rigorous cpr.

My bad.

But judging from his appetite, I think he's gonna be fine.

Can we FaceTime him, blythe?

Yeah, they were just changing his bandages,

but let me just check it first if he's decent.

He's gonna be so happy to talk to you.

You know what, I'm gonna have him call y'all back, okay? Bye.

I guess he wasn't decent.

Don't cry, Dixie. The doctor said I'm gonna be fine.

It's not just that.

It's about our son, and I feel so awful keeping y'all apart all this time.

You probably hate me.

And god knows you have every right.

I don't hate you.

That's all in the past.

God. I'm so happy to hear you say that.

I mean, you should see the way blue's face lights up when he talks about you.

- Really? - Yeah.

Really.

Dixie, what are you doing here?

She's just worried about me.

Flowers would have been plenty.

Well, when blue called and told me what happened, I mean,

I knew I had to come right away.

I hope they checked you for weapons.

Look, I know there's a lot of water under this bridge.

Times of crisis remind you what's important and who's important.

Like my husband.

Like the father of my only child.

I know, and I think that that almost makes you kin.

Well, not in the hospital's eyes, and this wing is just for family,

and I'd hate to see security have to escort you out.

Well, I...

I guess I probably should be going, so...

I'm just so glad you're okay, Don-Don.

Thanks for stopping by, dix.

Let's not wait another 20 years before we see each other again.

Bye, Dixie.

Well, now that wasn't very Christian of you.

Really? There's only so much a Christian woman can take, Don-Don.

Ef3 tornado that touched down an hour ago.

City officials say more are expected... Ef3s?

Did you know about this?

Don't even think about it.

Y'all wash up and set the table.

What are we having?

Dad's famous ravioli surprise. What do you think?

We had it three times this week. How is that a surprise?

You hush. Where's your brother?

Still at the playground.

- You left him? - He was crying.

It was embarrassing.

What was he crying about?

Because it's my birthday tomorrow, and mama won't be there for it.

It's not even his stupid birthday.

You miss her a lot?

I do too, bud.

All right, come on in. Come in for it.

Okay?

Yeah.

- What is that? - That's a tornado warning.

- Get in the shower and stay there. - Where are you going?

To go find your brother.

Abel! Holler if you can hear me!

Dad, over here!

- Take my hand. - I'm scared!

Me too, bud, but we gotta go.

Dad!

I hurt my leg. You gotta go!

- Come on! - Run!

- Dad, come on! - Run!

Dad!

Get the jumbo bars and cribbing.

- We gotta hustle. - Hey!

Over here! My dad's over here.

- Hey. What's your name, buddy? - Abel.

- Y'all have to help him. - Okay.

- Where is he? - He's down here.

- Make a hole! Make a hole! Make a hole! - My god.

My god.

Taylor, get the cribbing ready.

- Ma'am. - Yes, of course.

Looks like it's pinned to his chest.

Hey, sir, can you hear us?

He can't talk.

Can you move your hands?

Is my dad gonna be okay?

Hey, buddy. How about you go with my friend blue here while we work, okay?

Come on, pal. Let's get you water.

Okay, let's get it off him.

- Move, move, move. Yeah. - Yeah.

- Now set it down. - Got it.

Yeah. All right.

Cribbing is set.

Okay, get ready for the extraction with roxie.

Everybody else, jumbo bars in place.

Wait for my command.

All right.

Ready. And now.

- Let's move him away from the car. - Yep. You got it.

Taylor, start a line. Run it wide open.

- Sir, can you take a breath? - Yes, I can breathe.

I can breathe.

He's vasoconstricting. I can't find a vein.

Dad!

I didn't think you were gonna make it.

No, I love you and Isaac too much, and I wouldn't leave you.

- Hey. Hey. What's happening? Hey. - Blue, get him out of here. Get him back.

- Hey. - What's wrong with him?

Sir? Sir?

Doc, what's going on?

Peak t waves. We need to balance it.

Run back to the bus and grab me the cardiac med box.

And hurry, Ryan.

Move, move, move, move, move.

I still can't find a vein.

Forget it. Just pass me the drill.

Okay, I'm in.

We lost the pulse.

Starting compressions.

I'm gonna defibrillate.

Clear.

Still nothing.

Take over for me.

Pushing sodium bicarb.

Okay.

Come on, come on.

Pushing calcium chloride.

Hopefully this works.

Come on, dad. Please, please.

And we've got a pulse.

Dad.

- Hey, son. - Three, two, one. Lift.

Wait, wait.

My son Isaac's at the house by himself.

What's your address? We'll get him to the hospital.

449 rosemont. There's an American flag on the mailbox.

I told him to hide in the shower from the tornado.

Smart.

- All right, blue, you wanna? - Sure thing.

His name is Isaac. He's eight.

All right, we'll get him to the hospital for you.

- We'll meet y'all at village west. - See you there.

Thank y'all for everything.

It's our privilege, sir.

And tell Isaac I did not cry.

Okay, buddy.

Hey, ry, it's blue. Can you hear me?

We usually say "copy" over the radio.

My bad. I mean, copy.

What's up?

That dad definitely said 449 rosemont, right?

Yeah, American flag mailbox. Why?

'Cause I think we may have a problem.

What?

It's gone.

Lord, what now?

Looks like it's hanging by the axle.

Hey, get back. All non emergency personnel off the bridge.

Can you believe these vultures?

TikTok loves a catastrophe. Taylor, start clearing these people back.

Get back, people. Get back.

You heard from anybody inside?

In there? No. I have not.

Rox. I think I gotta go up and then down into it.

That's probably your best bet.

- Too bad the winch is still toast. - Yeah.

- I can belay you. - You know how to do that?

I rock climb in the smokies all the time. I can do it.

All right, blue's on belay. I'ma harness up.

Hold on, hold on. You're not seriously going in there.

There was an eight-year-old in that thing when it went up.

- You think anyone could've survived that? - I don't know.

Lieutenant, a gentle breeze hits it, and it's going in the drink.

I know.

He's not wrong.

- Cap. - Okay.

Dad. Hey.

Easy. You broke enough ribs for one day.

Sorry about that.

- What are you doing here? - I didn't want y'all to have all the fun.

I heard about it on the radio. We got here as quick as we could.

Well, against medical advice, but he wanted to be with his team.

- Hey, blue. - Hey, dad.

Rox, these boys playing nice?

- Nice enough. - Good.

- Hey, someone grab my harness. - Whoa.

What? No, no, no, no, no, you do not. Are you kidding?

You have at least half a dozen painkillers in your system.

- Your feet are staying on solid ground. - Dad.

Trust us. We got this.

All right. But we gotta move.

Let's get it.

That thing's hanging by a thread, cap.

- What's this boy's name? - Isaac.

His dad said he's hiding in the bathroom.

Bathroom?

Let's hope that's the end that's still intact.

- All right, you're good. Do it. - On belay?

Belay on.

You good?

You got it.

Isaac.

Help.

- I'm here. Help. I'm stuck. - Isaac, can you hear me?

- Isaac. - Yes. Down here!

- I'm trapped in here. - I'm coming to you, okay?

- Sit tight. - I'm stuck in the bathroom.

- Dad, I hear him. - You got eyes on him?

Negative. It's a jumbled mess in here.

Could add, more slack.

Hey, more slack. More slack.

- Help. The window's cracking. - Isaac, hey.

Hey, buddy, take a big deep breath for me, all right?

No sudden movements. You just keep breathing, yeah?

Ry, you okay?

Just helping reduce their screen time.

Isaac, Isaac, you just hold on one second, all right?

Cap, they can't hold on much longer.

You gotta hustle, son.

Dad.

The damn fridge's blocking the door.

Can you push that out of the way?

No, it's too heavy.

- We need someone to send up the jaws. - There's no time for that.

This thing's gonna drop.

Hey, we'll make time, dad.

I'm not leaving him, all right?

It's like you say, harts always find a way.

I can't think of any that don't risk killing you.

So, you're saying there is a way?

I mean, dad, what would you do if you were in my place?

I'd unhook my rescue line and tie it around that fridge.

Wait for my signal.

113, all hands on.

All hands on.

Get ready.

All right, do it.

Here we go. Pull. Pull.

One more.

Let's go. Pull, pull.

All right, good.

Hold it there, guys. Hold it there.

All right, Isaac. Hang tight.

- I'm Ryan. Are you Isaac? - Yes.

- Let's get you out of here, man. - Yes, sir.

- It's going. Mayday! Mayday! - Grab on to me.

Ryan!

Ry?

Ry?

Hey, blue.

Ryan?

Where are you?

Anytime you wanna let us down, that'd be great.

That's pretty smooth.

The cleanup has begun tonight

following the latest devastating storms that hammered Nashville,

but led by our first responders, the city met the challenge,

and we could finally expect sunnier skies ahead...

Have a good night, Eleanor.

Hey, you get you some rest, doc. You earned it.

Hey, I'm gonna bring doughnuts tomorrow.

- So tell everyone to come hungry, okay? - Ooh. Will do.

Doughnuts sound nice.

- Ryan. - Hey.

Wanna say thank you for helping save my dad.

Well, you got him here alive, so...

We always did make a great team.

You know, all I ever wanted was for us to have a marriage like my parents.

I know, and I've always asked you not to compare us to perfection.

That's the thing.

Turns out, they were miles from perfection all along.

But because they owned their problems,

they ended up stronger than if they had never had them.

And that's where I messed up.

All the time that I spent denying our problems,

I just made 'em worse.

And I pushed you further away and I'm...

I get why you want out.

You signed the papers?

If today taught me anything, it's that life is short.

And I love you too much to hold you hostage.

Do you really mean what you just said?

I blew it, Sam.

And I'm sorry.

Let's just...

Hold on to them for one more minute, okay?

Why?

Because if today taught me anything,

it's that with the right person, you really can get through anything.

Even if it feels like it's too late.

Maybe we just give it one more shot.

- You mean it? - I mean, if you're willing to do the work.

Yes, of course.

What happened to, "we already tried this a hundred times"?

What's the risk of 101?

Okay, we'll go for 101.

Okay. Wait, what was the thing that you were gonna tell me at the firehouse?

Turns out, I have a little brother.

What?

And he's not so little.

- Yeah. - What?

I'll tell you all about it over a cup of coffee.

How does that sound?

May I take you out for a cup of coffee?

- Yes. - Yeah?

Hey, it's Mark.

Sorry you missed me. I'm the worst.

Hey, it's me.

Just got home wanting to hear your voice.

I got to add another name to my list today.

I helped a girl deliver her baby sister.

Her mom's gonna name her miracle.

That wasn't the only one. We almost lost Don.

Lightning strike.

Doctors were about to write him off, but your sister did not give up.

To hear blythe tell it, she willed him back to life.

Only wish I could have done the same for you.

To listen to your voice message, press one.

To rerecord, press two.

Blythe. Well, ain't this a surprise.

You're not the only one who knows how to make an appearance.

Come on in then.

You want some wine?

Promise it ain't poison.

No. I'm not staying long. No, thank you.

Then what do you want?

I wanna know what your game is.

I don't think I know what you mean.

I mean, your son just suddenly crawled out from under the woodpiles

just a couple of months after we agreed

that Don and I would stop paying all those secret little child support payments.

Blue took a 23andme.

- He found his daddy all on his own. - Yeah, okay.

So, you expect me to believe that you didn't give him just a little nudge

in the right direction.

God, I couldn't give a damn what you believe, blythe.

What do you want?

I mean, is it money?

Is it revenge?

Or you want something more?

You know what's funny?

I have been so angry for so many years.

And seeing Don-Don again in the hospital like that,

all that anger just melted away.

But then again, we have always had a very special connection.

It almost sounds like you're trying to steal my husband.

You stole him first.

So, you want a war, then?

God, only for the last 20 years.

Got it.

Bye.

- Morning, rox. - Morning, cap.

Good to see you haven't lost a step.

How else would I keep up with you?

- Hey, cap. No pressure, but it's... - open mic at the broken fiddle?

Already got my tickets.

Blue, this is too slow, okay?

You gotta pretend like there's a... There's a fire.

You need to learn how to get that second ladder up onto the roof while climbing.

I can go faster.

All right, whoa, whoa. Now you're rushing.

- I'm rushing now? - Rushing. Yes.

All right. Hey, three points of contact and make sure that that ladder is secure

and balanced over your shoulder, otherwise...

Blue. Blue, blue, blue, blue.

Morning, boys.

- Hey, dad. - Hey, dad.

Lieutenant, a moment.

- How's it going? - How do you think?

He's raw as a damn boot blister. Technique is worse than I thought.

- You still think I made a mistake. - No. No.

If you would let me finish, I was gonna say that, yes, he is raw,

but I think he's gonna make a hell of a firefighter.

Well, I'm glad because I think we're gonna make one hell of a family.

All right, 113. We are on the move.

That includes you, cadet.

Let's go.
