TRAVIS: That traffic was unreal.

I mean, I guess it's a good thing.

Protests are getting so big,
they're starting

to shut down the whole city.

If this ice cream melted,
I am for sure gonna drink

this pint like it's a milkshake.

What time are we doing
street medic stuff tomorrow?

Uh, not sure.

P.S., I cannot believe
someone picked you up

with some drivel about liking
a man in uniform.

- No one picked me up.
- Mm-hmm.

Because it's not 1989,

and nobody picks up anyone anymore.

And also, because that would mean

I would have to call...

Oh, my God.

...Sebastian back

and allow him to take me out on a date.

Well, you kept it.

Rest in peace, Chief.

You good?

Yeah, I'm great.

You're a liar.

You "look good in that uniform."

- I still got it.
- Yeah, you do.

REPORTER: Further emboldening
the millions demanding justice

has been the recent media attention

of the death of Breonna Taylor,

a 26-year-old paramedic
who was killed in her home.

From Seattle City Hall,
Deputy Chief Michael Dixon.

Oh.

DIXON: I know everyone is hurting,

I know everyone wants
their voices to be heard,

and I know taking
to the streets seems like

the easiest way to voice
your frustrations and concerns,

but I'm calling for peace, Seattle.

What we all need to do
for the city we love

is to come together as one for change.

He expects people to believe his crap.

It's actually kind of scary
how he's convinced himself

he's one of the good guys.

Did you know one
of the first forms of policing

in this country grew
from local slave patrols?

Yeah, like, angry white guys
using violence and intimidation

to prevent enslaved people
from escaping.

Yeah. I-I actually did know that.

Yeah, but it is good
that you know that now, too.

Um, you know, Gibson,

why don't you help me with these?

Yeah.

This one's ready, too.

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]
And that still needs to...

Hey, did you hear from your surgeon

about your results yet?

Yeah, Miranda just did.

All clear.

They called Miranda first?

Oh. Of course they called Miranda first.

[ CHUCKLES ] So, uh, all clear?

All clear.

That's amazing, Warren.

You know, I would have been
personally offended

if you survived
literally being lost at sea

just for this to take you out.

Yeah. How you doing?

Uh... you know, like we all are.

Yeah.

I'm gonna make this call.

Looting and rioting...

You know, I've been out there
these past couple days,

and the protests are usually peaceful,

till the police arrive,
and then they escalate.

Emmett says the medical tents
start filling up

later in the day.

ANDY: Yeah, I've seen people
get tear-gassed,

get scraped up from falls,

and even some rubber bullet wounds.

Runs the gamut.

Yeah, that tracks.

I mean, given the history of the PD.

I mean, it's like
if the police department

put salt and pepper on a steak

and said it became... not steak.

Yeah, that's... That's true.

Did you know the 13th Amendment
abolished slavery

except as punishment for a crime?

Like, Black people
would get arrested, right,

on, like, trumped up charges
so they could get convicted

and then used for free labor.

Also, yes. Nice.

Something feels
a little different, though,

don't you think?

People are finally starting
to talk about it.

I just hope it's not temporary,

that it's not, you know,
people just studying

for, like, a test,
that they're actually, like,

internalizing these concepts

and t-they're really trying to push...

to make these before.

No, that's not... Yeah, I did.

How hard can it be?

Huh?

What's going on with you?

Nothing. I'm learning
how to make new things.

I'm mussel-making in this case, right?

You practically ran out of the lounge

when you saw them making
the protest packs.

You turned the radio off

when they started talking
about the marches.

And now you've decided
to learn French cuisine.

Okay, Belgian, but I guess...

What's up?

Nothing. I've spent all weekend
thinking about what's up.

I just want two seconds
to not think about that.

I just want to think about...

shellfish.

This is our thing, right?
This is what we do.

We take turns forcing
the other person to talk.

So, rip the scab. Just do it.

Remember when we used
to go out at night,

like back when the world was open,

and before you'd head out,

you'd say to your friends,
"Text me when you get home"?

You know, just so you'd know
all your people were good

and, you know,
you'd know they made it home

safe and sound, right?

That's like sacred friend stuff.

That's like humans evolving
beyond beast stuff.

That is consideration and buddy love

even when you're too drunk
to walk straight.

Oh, my God.
Remember how hammered you were

at Miller's birthday last year...

She was home, Travis.
Breonna Taylor was home,

and she could have texted
her best friend "Home XO,"

and then that friend
would have gone to bed thinking,

"Great. Everyone's home safe and sound."

And then she was killed
in the middle of the night.

In her home. In her pajamas.

Vic, I'm sorry.

And I-I just don't want to think
about any of it, you know?

For just one day, Travis.

Tomorrow, I will pick it all
back up again. I promise.

But today, I just want to put
my feelings in the freezer

because I'm spent,

and I just need one day.

I will fight all future battles

and I will care as much as I do now,

but I just... I'm... I'm exhausted.

And I just... I need a day.

until two months after the fact,

trying not to feel my feelings,

trying not to center myself
so that Miller and Sullivan

and Warren and... and...
And maybe even you, Dad,

maybe even you could feel your feelings.

But, you know,
I haven't been able to sleep

through the night since I heard
what happened to her.

I go to bed with a kitchen knife
in my nightstand,

which I know is outrageous
'cause a kitchen knife

is no match for a bullet,
but I need something,

just anything,
to help me feel safe at night.

But of course, you wouldn't know that,

because you haven't...

God, I don't even know how long.

But you know what? Even if you
had checked in on me,

I probably would have pretended
everything's fine

because bizarrely... Bizarrely,

that's what we do in this family.

And I just... I honestly...
I just don't...

- They can do that?
- They just did.

Apparently, tensions are too high

and the city wants
to present a united front.

They don't want SFD to appear to
be on a different side than PD.

The side of helping people?

That's bull.

We should go anyway.

- We can't.
- Can't or won't?

Can't.

Oh. Um, I can go.

No, don't. You can help me

Thank you.

What?

[ CHUCKLES ] Nothing.

I just remember how you used
to sit in that exact spot

when you were a little girl.

[ CHUCKLES ] You were so tiny

your chin would touch the table.

LENYA: [ CHUCKLES ]

I just can't believe
our little girl grew up

to become so strong and self-sufficient.

Well, necessity is the mother

It was a compliment, Victoria.

MIGUEL: We're putting together a story

about last night's
violent protests turned riot.

- Hey.
- Okay, hey, guys, now is not the time.

Just a quick comment for local news.

We're trying to keep the city
informed of what's...

My friend already told you.

Sir, are you the owner
of this establishment?

The smoke hasn't even cleared yet, dude.

- Hey. Hey!
- You can't... Excuse me, excuse me!

You all must be horrified
that a neighborhood mainstay

and small family business
was destroyed by protesters.

- Rioters.
- Exactly.

Rioters terrorizing our city,

costing our taxpayer dollars,

all in the name of a movement
that cares nothing about them.

- What?
- Care to comment?

Bro, you need to go.

Yeah. Our comment is let it burn.

'Cause justice needs to be served,

and if this is what it takes
to make people care

and make those officers
to held accountable

and any officer who did it in any city

who allow it to do to make accountable,

then let it burn.

What about the property

- that's been damaged...
- Okay. Okay.

ANTHONY: Nah, property
does not equal life.

I mean, you can rebuild a restaurant,

but you can't bring back
somebody who's been killed.

So, if you're asking, if you're...

If you're positing that society
should be more upset

by the value of property
than... than murder,

I think you need to reevaluate

how you're walking through this world.

Being scandalized by property damage,

but not the taking of a human life?

That's a problem. That's a problem, sir.

You're simply fine with your business

being burned to the ground?

You know what? Okay. As my parents said,

this isn't actually
about our restaurant,

this is...

This is about the people
whose lives were taken.

They were taken from
their families who loved them

and cared about them
and who they cared about.

This is about justice for Breonna Taylor

and George Floyd
and Charleena Lyles and...

And Manny Ellis and Michael Brown,

India Kager, and Atatiana Jefferson.

And Sandra Bland.

And Tamir Rice and Rekia Boyd.

And Alton Sterling and Freddie Grey

Okay, well, Hughes and Montgomery

left a bowl of clams

when we got the call.

Ew.

I...

Mm.

That is the worst thing
you've ever made,

and you've made some doozies.

- Oh. Oh.
- Some bad ones.

- Yeah.
- Okay, well, I guess

I was rolling the dice

with bottled "Bombay Blend."

That's probably a problematic name, too.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

No, you know, just
because of, like, colonization

and... I don't know.

Ah, Gibson's getting woke, huh?

I'm trying to understand all this stuff.

Like, how can law enforcement
become trustworthy,

become a force for good

if it's not willing to acknowledge

its, you know, history?

And with that history,
why is, like, reform

or, like, unconscious bias training,

you know, such
a controversial conversation?

It just doesn't make any sense.
That's all I'm saying.

Well, yeah.

And then that kid asked
what side we were on.

Yeah, well, that kid was an idiot.

Yeah, true. Okay, fine.

But... not wrong.

And then he said,
"Why not just leave him there?"

Well, that's not what we do.
We're firefighters.

Yeah, I just feel like... [SIGHS]

Maybe I'm most comfortable
in, like, crisis mode,

and if there's not a crisis, then...

I don't know. I feel like
I'm not good for anything.

Oh. Oh, got it.

This has nothing to do with the kid.

Are we talking about Inara?

No.

No, it's nothing. I'm fine.

- Come on. Spit it out.
- No, I'm fine. It's good.

Alright, when Inara and I met,

it was all about getting her
away from the abusive ex, right?

And then we'd become a thing,

and Marsha, you know,
ends up in the hospital,

and then there was
always something, you know?

I was protecting her,
taking care of her.

Yeah.

And then Marsha gets well
and everything is calm,

and then...
