- Your work the other day
really impressed me.

If you can prove your
paramedicine program works,

they'll make
the funding permanent.

- There's that thing
between us.

That means something.

- I'm kind of seeing Cara
right now.

I'm sorry about how I acted
in the laundry room.

- It's nothing.
- It's something.

- How's Pelham?
He's gotta be the right fit.

- Doesn't Kidd seem like the
natural replacement for Casey?

- She's not back yet.

- Hey, Stella.
I just wanted to make sure

that you're keeping
Boden in the loop

about your furlough.

- If you're looking
for a drinking buddy,

happy to meet up at Molly's,
or wherever.

supplies for WinterFest.

for literally years.

You're gonna make
her head spin with this.

Okay, clearly in whatever state
this is, you're not listening.

not destroy things with Cara

Can I have a word with you?

So I did
a little reconnaissance

on the oversight panel
presentation

you're making on Friday,
and I know one person

on the committee--Jean Gilmer.

Lovely woman.
Our families go way back.

I--well, I went ahead
and primed her for your pitch.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

And the good news is,
she was very receptive.

- As she should be.
This is a great program.

- Is there bad news?

- Not necessarily,
but she did say

that one member, Tom Jensen,
is a bit of a stickler

on anything
involving cost increases.

- Oh, no.

- But she thinks
she can sway him

because it's such
a good program.

Her words.
- Okay.

Well, that makes me
feel better.

how's your, uh--

- 110%.

Who needs an appendix anyway?
Not me.

We were all worried about you.

- Oh.

[cell phone rings]

Brett, I will see you
at the presentation.

- Yes, you will.

- Hello?

- You know, when Chief Hawkins
first got that job,

I was unimpressed,
but he's growing on me.

- Yeah.

- And the way he made sure
you were taken care of

at the hospital...

- What do you mean?
- He was on those nurses.

Made them get you the best
recovery room in the hospital.

- He did?

- Checked on you more
than once too.

- Oh.

- All right,
I'm gonna look over my binder.

- Okay.

Take a seat.

Look, I don't like
to mix personal business

and firehouse business,

but I believe I need
to make an exception.

- Okay.

- Stella Kidd.

She was approved furlough
for four weeks.

Now, the fact that she was
taking Girls on Fire

to a new city, that's--

well, that's the Stella Kidd
that I know and appreciate.

- But?

- Four weeks became eight.

Boston became Concord,
became Philadelphia.

Now, I was willing to help her
cover the additional furlough,

but now, after she knew

that we had an open spot
for a truck lieutenant,

she didn't immediately come
and claim it.

[emotional music]

So you tell me...

is there something more going
on here that I'm not seeing?

- I appreciate you coming to me
with this, Chief.

I'm in the same boat.

Casey told Stella
he was leaving.

I told her there was
this floater lieutenant

who was impressing everyone,

and it's like
she didn't hear me.

She was so gung-ho
about expanding Girls on Fire

that everything seemed to go
in one ear and out the other.

- Here's the hard truth.

Pelham is
a top-tier lieutenant.

If I don't hear from Stella
that she really wants this job

I'm gonna be forced
to make a difficult decision.

- This paramedicine program
is working.

I've seen the difference
it makes.

We've seen the difference
it makes.

And like its success
in San Diego,

which is noted in the binders
I provided you on page five,

you can see that our program
will succeed here in Chicago.

But only if you support it.

Thank you for your time.

- Ms. Brett.

I appreciate your enthusiasm
for the program,

but I don't think
this is the right time

for the Chicago Fire Department
to be incurring--

- Chief Jensen.

So sorry I'm late.
I'd appreciate it

if you could give me just
five more minutes of your time.

[clears throat] Uh...

I'd like to say,
as paramedic field chief,

that I've seen the benefits

of Sylvie Brett's program
firsthand.

And as I'm sure
she laid out for you,

she's reducing
non-emergency calls,

but more importantly,
she's spending more time

with her patients
and promoting wellness

and mental health awareness
while she's there.

I could go on
for hours about it,

but rather than hear from me,

why not hear about
the difference this program

makes from the patients
whom it benefits?

- Hello.
My name is Cheryl Reddings,

and I'm a flagship patient
in the paramedicine program.

Before this program
came into my life,

I called 911 two
or three times a week.

I don't know where I'd be
without this program.

It has changed my life.

So please,
consider keeping it on.

- It went really well.
At least I think it did.

And I love you, and I miss you,

and I'll call you
when I hear a verdict.

- No matter what happens--
and with the CFD bureaucracy,

you really never know--

you did an absolutely
terrific job, Brett.

- Hear, hear.

- Your program is smart
and effective

and forward-thinking.

And they heard that today.

- Well, I appreciate
you both being there.

It meant a lot to me.

- What's going on?
- Disaster.

Mouch, can we store
our equipment here?

- Uh, yeah.

- Well, they voted unanimously.

You're fully funded.

- Oh!
- Ahh!

- [chuckles]
- Hey!

- That was really amazing
what you did for Brett.

- She's a great paramedic.
- Yeah.

- And it wasn't lost on me
that you were there,

off shift, backing her up.

- Oh, I wouldn't
have missed it.

[phone dings]
- Oh. That's right. I gotta go.

Congrats, Sylvie.
I'm so proud of you.

Help yourself to any of
the good champagne back there.

That's for everyone.

Uh, stay as long as you like.

- Hey, we cleared it
with Chief,

so third shift is using
the spare rig

for a few hours,
we're taking 81.

We got to scoot
if we're gonna make it.

- Yep. Load up.

- Okay, do you have a ride,

or do you need me
to have someone drive you?

[horn honks]

- Hugh, Sandra.

Think you can ride
on a fire truck?

- What do you got in mind?
[chuckles]

[siren blares]

- Over there! Ho ho ho ho ho!

[children screaming with glee]
Ho ho ho ho ho!

Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!

- Hey, look who we got!
- Ho ho ho!

Merry Christmas! Ho ho ho!

- Who wants a fire truck?
All right.

There you go.
I'm gonna make you all happy.

Who else wants one?
What do you want?

All right, hang on.

- Merry Christmas!
- All right, who wants this?

There you go.
- Here's an action figure.

Oh, way back. Way back.

You're next.
What do we got? Oh, yeah!

See Santa Claus? Oh, yeah!

Hey, Santa!
