Once again for the ride. I know it's a pain in the butt driving out to my side

of town at rush hour. It's no problem, Brody.

But I've almost got enough saved up for a new car, so you won't have to do it

much longer.

Mm -hmm.

I like the company.

You're too sweet.

Um... You're going in already?

We're 20 minutes early.

Thought we'd go get a jump on the day.

Yeah, or we could get a jump on something else.

You mean about the kissing?

Yeah.

About the kissing.

Just how serious is this?

We're still trying to figure out what this is.

But you are a... a something?

It's turning that way.

I'd like it to be.

Look, I know this isn't what you're gonna want to hear, but... But you want

to break things off.

I think you guys would be great together.

For real?

You're like a daughter to me.

But if you two want to give this a shot, there's going to be a few ground rules.

Before this goes any further, you're going to report it to the department.

There's going to be no funny business in the house or in the parking lot.

You promise?

If anybody thinks about breaking my daughter's heart, or my son's.

You're going to have to answer to me.

Yes, sir.

It's your thing, Cap.

Now get out of here.

911, what's your emergency?

This is a secure car.

The owner of this vehicle has been in an accident and is not responding.

Secure car, give me the car's location.

The emergency location is approximately 36 degrees north and 87 degrees west.

113, please respond to an MVA on McCrory Lane, somewhere west of Charlotte

Heights. Copy you.

113 en route.

Secure car, activate the vehicle's console intercom system. Intercom

I was just starting the crash.

Your car service contacted me. I'm speaking to you through their app. Oh,

totally forgot we had that. Oh, thank God. Are you near McCrory and Charlotte?

Yes. I had a blowout, and I lost control.

We spun off the road. Now my leg's stuck under the wheel.

Daddy, are we going to be okay?

Sir, who else is in the car with you?

It's my daughter, Marigold. She's seven.

Are either of you hurt?

No.

Not yet.

What do you mean, not yet?

Look for tire marks and debris.

Any injuries?

This is a rubber cable. The car is teetering on a hillside and his leg is

trapped under a wheel.

His seven -year -old daughter is in the back in a booster seat.

I got shredded tire over here.

All right, pan out. It's got to be somewhere nearby.

Cam, do you still have the driver on the phone? Ask him if he can honk his horn.

Okay.

and buy twigs and spider webs.

Then how do you want to play it?

You two are going to be in harnesses. You're going to grab the girl, you're

going to grab the driver. Rocks, blue, I want you on belay. On it, Captain.

Let's hustle.

You're all set.

All right, they're headed down.

Let's do it.

All right, Taylor, let's get that girl out first in case it goes.

All right, very careful.

Okay?

There you go.

But first, you gotta roll these windows down, okay?

There you go.

Hi, sweetie.

Good, good, good.

You must be Miracle.

Hi. Hi.

We're gonna get you out of here. Don't you worry.

Can you do me a huge favor?

Unbuckle your seatbelt and slide towards me so I can get this safety strap on

you?

I can't.

Your dad's getting...

Yeah. We gotta go.

Hey, do you like Toy Story?

Yeah. Me too.

Who's your favorite character?

Jessie.

My girl.

Put this around you and I'll get you out of here. You know what I think makes

them all so brave?

They know no matter what, they've always got each other's backs, right?

Yeah.

So, here's what we're gonna do.

and follow the sound of my voice, okay?

Yes, sir. All right?

When you're ready.

Thank God she can sing.

Yes, she can.

Yes, she can.

Not bad. No pressure, old man, but you need three balls to win.

Yeah,

Cap's got this.

Thank you for the confidence, Rox.

Oh,

and that's two.

You've got to be kidding me. Bill, the king of the... We did it!

All right. Yeah, it was almost all positive.

Almost. Well, because he's still a probie, there's a bit of a power

so they're going to run it by the lawyers, but they don't see a problem.

way, I'm glad you did the right thing. Yeah.

No. No.

Just no.

What did I say about funny business? Making it weird.

I'm sorry.

We're just excited.

All right, first and final warning.

That game, by the way, gets an asterisk.

You need to take the L. Excuse me?

Hey, guys.

I hope it's okay I let myself in.

Yeah.

for saving my daughter and me. I was just doing our job, sir.

Taylor, Marigold wanted me to give you this.

Oh, that's amazing.

That's really cute.

Tell her I will treasure this forever. I will.

But that is not the only thing I came to offer you today.

I worked for Victoria Vamp.

Oh, Victoria Vamp.

She's one of the biggest writer -producers in town. Mama used to sing

back in the day. After you saved my daughter with your incredible voice, I

looked you up. I found your videos from open mics.

I sent them to Victoria, and she wants to meet you for a secret new song she's

working on. Oh, my God.

You're going to be famous.

There's only one condition.

What? It has to be tomorrow at 335 Sharp.

335? Why so specific?

You'll learn Victoria's a very particular person.

That's true.

Mama told me once she didn't let anyone in the studio that was wearing the color

orange. You know, she's eccentric, but she is a genius.

And she wants to make you a star.

I'm sorry.

The only problem is I have a shift tomorrow.

And when I'm on duty, that comes first.

Not tomorrow, it won't.

I'm giving you leave.

Are you sure? It's your dream, of course. Just come back when you're done.

Oh, my God.

I have one condition, too.

I want to bring my friend, Tammy.

You got it.

Okay.

911, what's your emergency?

I don't feel so good.

What's going on, sweetie?

My stomach hurts so bad.

I can barely move. Can you describe the pain for me?

Stabbing and dragging.

Is it more on one side or all over?

Like, right below my...

Take care of you. What's your name?

Celeste. Hi, Celeste. I'm Cami. It looks like you're at 87 Fisher Drive. Is that

correct? Yes.

Okay, I'm sending help to you now. No, you can't send anyone.

Why not?

It's too embarrassing.

What do you mean it's too embarrassing?

What did you put up there?

I don't want to say. Can you just tell me how to get it out over the phone?

Honey, if you're experiencing pain that severe, you need treatment right away.

It's too humiliating.

Everyone's going to laugh at me.

Listen, I know some wonderful paramedics. They're going to take great

you with no judgment, I promise.

When did you put it up there? I don't know.

Maybe a month ago.

All right, heart rate's 115, BP is 135, and we're 79.

We need to get you to the hospital for removal.

No, no hospitals. I can't go to the hospital. Honey, the pain you're feeling

could be adhesion. It's when a foreign object attaches to soft tissue.

It could cause a bleed.

It could kill you.

Not as fast as my parents will say right now.

How old are you?

Why?

Because if you're under 18, I need permission from your parents.

off the charts. What do you want to do?

Let me take another look.

It's so bad.

It's pretty swollen.

Good news is the addiction isn't as bad.

Take a deep breath.

Three, two, breathe out.

One.

This is why we don't take medical advice from social media.

Thank you. What?

What is going on in here? Hi, ma 'am. I'm Roxy. This is Taylor.

Your daughter had a medical emergency.

What emergency?

I got something stuck.

what is wrong with you what the hell were you thinking there's no reason to

on the shame okay kids make mistakes all the time don't tell me how to parent my

child i'd like you to go

And so does Victoria.

Listen, there's the key things you should know about her.

She can be volatile and blunt.

And she says the word album like Al Bam.

So whatever you do, don't laugh.

Are you messing with me? I'm not.

I didn't know all this stuff.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Victoria's ready for you. Hi, David. This is my friend

Kimmy. Hi. Hi. Oh, thank God. No one's wearing fuchsia. I...

She said she hated the color orange.

Today she also hates the color fuchsia.

aren't you?

No. Well, you better not be an agent because I don't like sales energy in my

office. This is my friend, Tammy.

I was your assistant for two years in the 90s.

Oh, yes.

Oh, my God.

Callie, how are you?

You were such a talented producer. I remember that.

Gosh, who are you working with these days?

The city of Nashville.

I switched careers. I'm a 911 operator now. Well, way to cut back on the

LOL, right? Not.

So, Tay -Tay, may I call you Tay -Tay? So, Tay -Tay, I brought you here because

I think that you have world -class potential.

Thank you, Miss Mayor.

I'm interested in cutting an album with you.

Oh, yeah, I would love that. Yes, yes, soon, down the road. But today I want to

share something that's even more special. A song that I'm producing and I

and...

Before I give it to you, I want you to promise me just one thing. Sure.

You need to give me your word that you are going to love it.

Before I read it.

Catchy. All right, come on, let's hear it. Yeah.

Yeah.

It's a jingle for a diet drink aimed at teenagers.

Yeah. Let me see one of those.

Well, it says on the can here, not recommended for those under 18, so...

but the jingle and advertisements say otherwise. Listen to the name.

Unicorn juice.

Coca -Cola. I mean, the advertising is basically aimed at children.

We already know that they have body image issues. God knows what's in it.

gross. Okay, son.

Don't do it, then.

I have a choice.

Why? What if you hate it so much?

Victoria Vamp can make or break a career. If I thumb my nose at her, I

ruin my future. Why would this Victoria woman even do this if she's such a big

deal? Because she likes money even more than she likes Grammy.

I get it.

And I support you 100%. Thank you. In jingle or not, if you're singing it, I'm

sure it'll be a hit.

That's what I'm worried about.

All right, can we help you, ma 'am? I'm Pamela Merz from the city attorney's

office. Oh, my God, is this the HR thing?

I swear we only kissed on company property once.

Maybe twice.

No, it's not about that.

I need to talk to Roxanna Alba.

I'm Roxy.

Somebody want to tell me what's going on here?

Your lead paramedic is accused of performing a medical intervention on a

without permission.

This is about the girl?

Yes.

Potato Kid I told you about.

Yeah, you told me she used it.

Potato was a contraceptive. He didn't tell me there wasn't an adult present.

Well, there was right after the extraction.

She was okay, so I didn't even think about it again.

Well, her parents are not okay. They're suing the city.

Their attorney filed for a temporary restraining order.

They're arguing that you continuing to work could cause irreparable harm to the

public. Hold on. They want her suspended?

It's going to be hearing in the next 48 hours.

I'm here to help evaluate whether or not we're going to stand behind you and

mount a defense or settle the case.

And throw her to the wolves.

My job is to defend the city's interests.

If it is determined that your conduct was unbecoming, the city has the right

sue you to recoup any potential losses.

The city could sue me.

It's in your contract.

Dr. Alba, did you know Celeste was a minor when you treated her?

Yes, I figured as much.

Hold on.

You figured? Well, I didn't check for her ID.

Did you ask her age before you initiated the treatment?

Yes. And how did she respond?

She couldn't.

She was in too much pain.

Her heart rate was fine. Her BP shot up.

She was in crisis.

So you made a good faith attempt to find out, but the circumstances forced you

to intervene.

Technically, that's true.

Okay, well, in life or death situations, a paramedic is obligated to act

regardless of parental consent.

Yeah, well, the parents are arguing that it was elective and not life -saving,

so consent would be required.

They've hired Wilson and Travers as counsel.

No one has successfully sued the city for more money in over 10 years. How is

that her problem? It's her problem because they'll look under every rock

every misstep, blunder, or scandal that you've done on the job.

Let them.

Because here's the best damn paramedic I ever worked with.

So I'll ask you point blank, Dr. Alba.

Is there anything that you're afraid might come to light?

I need you to come downtown to start preparing for the hearing immediately.

Because you're in for the fight of your life.

Chuck, what are these?

We spent all morning painting them bronze gold.

So?

These are bronze beige.

I mean, the shades aren't going to match.

Don't worry, Pablo.

Ain't nobody care about the shades.

Okay. Not to mention, these are toxic and highly flammable.

This is not how you make art.

It's Peck Nation, not the Sistine Chapel.

You're here to paint by numbers, not consult on the craft.

And don't think I didn't see what you did on H -8 while I was gone.

I took that on my lunch break. I was going to cover it up anyway.

You're damn right you are.

Get it done.

Okay, shouldn't we wait for the rain to stop?

It's going to leave trees.

I don't care.

You got a lot of peck to... I'm filming my son now. Come on, man.

You gotta get out of here.

Sir, your wood's rotten.

You had them painting out in the rain. That's how this happened.

Expect a call from Ocha.

Thanks, I feel so much better already.

Feel better?

Haven't done anything yet.

You haven't?

Do you still hurt?

Fine, you haven't done anything?

No.

All right, let's turn him on his side, okay?

Gentle, gentle, gentle.

Okay, Pablo, I need to cut open your jacket, okay?

Okay, we're going to roll him onto the board slowly, okay?

Three, two, one.

Okay.

Am I paralyzed?

Because you were able to feel your foot a moment ago, I'm hoping that the

numbness is just from swelling of the spine.

Let's get some cold fluid so we can help with the swelling.

We're going to get you out of here, okay?

How's he doing?

He's got vertebrae floating around.

Okay, so we're not using the stairs.

Absolutely not. Too many sharp turns will sever the spinal cord completely,

we need to move quickly.

The swelling's moving up his body and around his lungs, so he won't be able to

breathe. 113, it's going to be a high -angle rescue. Let's prep the ladder and

the stokes basket.

Hey, you ready for this?

I can't feel anything.

And it's getting harder to breathe. Don't worry. We got you. We're going to

you down soon.

All right, Cap. We're ready. Copy that.

Firefighter U, be in position. Here they come.

We're in position.

All right, guys. On my call. Ready?

Three, two, one, lift.

There you go. Good job.

You got it, Tay.

Keep it going, keep it going.

Just keep looking at me, Pablo.

Keep looking at me. This is what I get for being a sellout. This is not on you.

It's on your boss.

No, this is on me.

I knew this job was gross, but I did it anyway.

All I ever wanted to do was make art.

Now I may never get to again.

Needs O2.

I know.

Taylor, what's wrong?

I can't get it. It's too tight.

I can't move his neck and I don't want to perforate the esophagus.

God, I wish Rox was here.

You got this, Tay.

You can do it.

First witness, please.

Dr. Alba, can you paint a picture for me of what you saw when you entered the

premises on the call?

Celeste was home alone, in obvious distress, complaining of severe

pain.

Did she tell you what happened?

Yes. Can you share it with the court?

She had inserted a potato into her vagina as a prophylactic.

She begged me to remove it instead of take her to the hospital.

She said her parents would kill her.

And did you ask her? She was 18.

Yes. And what did she say?

She never answered the question because she was in too much pain.

You never answered on purpose.

Isn't that correct, Celeste?

No.

I just wanted it out. It hurts so bad. Because you knew that your parents would

be mad because they'd find out that you were sexually active. Isn't that right?

Can we take a break?

I don't... Feel very good.

You know who doesn't feel very good?

The woman whose life could be ruined trying to save yours.

She's just a kid.

Does she really have to grill her like that? Don't worry.

You're going to get your turn soon enough.

You have a God complex, don't you?

I don't think so, no.

Well, safe to say you have a habit of going beyond the scope of a normal

paramedic, isn't it? You'll have to be more specific.

Okay. Okay.

Is it true you recently went up 130 feet in the air in a rescue basket during a

lightning storm? That was on my orders.

True.

But did you order her to tear out the mayor's pacemaker or perform open -heart

surgery in the back of a moving ambulance?

Well, technically, the ambulance wasn't moving.

We pulled over.

Right. Your Honor should know she didn't lose any of these patients. Her record

is flawless.

Actually, that's not true.

Do you know who this woman is?

Yes.

Angelica Rojas.

Yeah, well, I assumed you'd remember since she died on your watch, didn't

Objection. I've never seen an Angelica Rojas in any of the NFC records.

That's because she's not from Nashville. She's from the Bronx, where Dr. Alba

treated her at St. John Xavier Hospital. She was 33 years old.

Two young kids came in complaining of a headache. You diagnosed it as a sinus

infection and sent her home with antibiotics and ibuprofen.

That's correct.

She died of an aneurysm three hours later.

One that could have been prevented had you been paying better attention.

That's right.

So what happened?

I was so focused on the insurance forms I had to fill out for the hospital that

I missed science.

And then you moved to Nashville to become a paramedic shortly thereafter

new beginning, I presume?

And to start focusing on patients more than computer screen.

Oh, I get it.

Judging by the surprised look on your captain's face, I take it you never

disclosed this information to anyone in the department?

No.

You're damn right I would have.

Thank you.

Rox? Rox?

What the hell was that? She asked you if you had any skeletons in your bed. And

if I had told you?

What good would it have done? We would have gotten ahead of it.

We would have owned it. We would have told your story. That judge is going to

come out of deliberation. He's going to throw the book at you. I warned you what

would happen if you weren't truthful.

You better have a damn good attorney.

Rox, what are you... Celeste, are you okay?

I noticed you looked uncomfortable in there.

Judy, if something hurts, you need to say so.

It's my side.

Which side? Are you kidding me right now? Get away from my daughter. I'm

to get an officer of the court. Rox, everything okay? Cap, it's serious.

I'll get an ambulance.

Which side?

You need to tell me. It's okay.

Are you serious? Get your hands off of my daughter. We're going to sue you. Ma

'am, you care about your daughter. You let her do her work.

It's important.

You need to be honest, okay?

You're like the pen bunny.

When was your last period?

Eight weeks.

Eight weeks?

She's pregnant.

I think this is an ectopic pregnancy.

What is that? It's when a fertilized egg implants outside the uterus. And I

suspect she's bleeding internally. We need to get her to the hospital now.

Ambulance is on the way. You gotta get her downstairs. Grab your daughter.

I'm sorry

to

hear that, but nobody's even asked me about my day today.

What?

You should really ask me about my day.

Sam, how's your day going?

Much better now.

My colleague just saved a young woman's life thanks to a quick thinking good

Samaritan.

And if they would have come in any later, it would have been a different

Thank you, Sam.

I should get back to work.

Thanks.

You hear that?

Wasn't in vain.

Look, I'm sorry for never telling you about what happened in New York.

Why didn't you?

I don't want you to look at me the way I do.

How is that?

A mummy killer.

I orphaned two little kids because I couldn't pay attention for five minutes.

I still feel so much shame over it.

You know, it's funny.

A good friend of mine recently helped me with a pretty nasty case of shame.

Is that right?

Mm -hmm.

One of the things she taught me was that shame is a dangerous emotion.

It can lie to you.

And if you keep it to yourself, you start to believe those lies.

Except in my case.

Oh, sure.

You say you're a mom killer.

I've seen you save more moms than I can count.

And dads and grandpas and wives and kittens.

I know you came down here for redemption, Ross. Not that you needed

You made good.

Well, I'm glad.

I'm pretty sure my days of saving people are over.

Hey.

Hey.

It's the attorney's office.

It's Captain Hart.

Just so.

Okay, I'll let her know.

Chuck's throwing a book at me?

He never finished deliberating.

Celeste's family just informed the city that they're dropping their suit.

So I'm in the clear?

Looks like you've got a lot more lives to save.

3 -9 -13.

some up for info. They're delicious.

So he tells me I'm off aspartame.

Taylor, do you know what I'm looking at? I am looking at a person whose life's

about to change.

You may feel like that. Well, don't be nervous, but I've decided that that is

where your gold record is going after we cut your debut album.

Victoria. First, we need to make the people at Hydrosculpt very happy. They

decided that they want the ad to run at the Kids' Choice Awards, so we need to

deliver ASAP. Victoria.

I need to tell you something.

Working with you is literally a dream come true.

Yes, of course it is, darling.

I can't record the jingle today.

Oh, no, is it your voice? Oh, honey, don't worry about that. We have tea.

David, can you bring us some teas and some steroids?

Victoria, I... It's not that I can't sing it

today. I... I can't.

Sing it ever.

I was on a call and I met an artist.

He was putting up a mural. It was an ad for a strip club.

And he got hurt.

And I'll never forget the look in his eyes when he thought that that was

the last thing that he'd ever work on.

Is this your way of calling me a sellout?

No, of course not. It's just that...

I would be one if I did something I don't believe in.

Okay, well, why did you come down here, then?

Because I respect you.

And I hope to God that you have me back one day to record that gold record. We

both know she has the talent.

I've got to commend you, Taylor.

Callie's right. You have world -class talent.

And courage.

Like I've never seen in my life. No wonder you're a firefighter.

Thank you, Victoria. That means a lot. But most firefighters are smart enough

not to burn down their own careers.

Yes, you have talent, but it's Nashville.

Everyone has talent. Not everyone has me.

And you come into my studio and you humiliate me?

That was never my intention.

And then you have the gall to ask me for a gold record? I want you to know that

I will make it my mission to use my immense power to make sure that you

sing. In this town again.

Now get out of my studio.

Thank you for your time.

Hey, don't listen to her.

Did I just make the worst mistake of my life? No, honey, you didn't.

What if she makes it so I never sing again?

Knowing Victoria, she's going to forget about it by lunch.

And you are going to sing again.

In about an hour. What are you talking about?

I figured something like this might happen, so I booked you a gig.

It's at the perfect venue. They're going to love you.

Well, I'm going to have to get a guitar.

No, it's Nashville. They're going to have one there.

Forte and Bunny XO.
