- 51 is pretty dope so far.

Lots of action,
not a ton of young people.

- I'm 27.

- You were right.

Maybe she's not 51 material.

- Put the gun down.

- You are so scared that
you're gonna get in trouble.

You can still step back.

- There is something about her.

I was gonna ask if
you wanted to stay on 61.

- Yeah, we should really
keep talking about that.

[dramatic music]

- This is so unfair.

I had to wait till I was 13
to get my own phone.

- Whoever said
life is fair, huh?

- Oh, yeah, I bet they told

Susan B. Anthony
the same thing.

- Uh, do you even know
what the hell that means?

- It means this is
completely sexist.

- If your dad had forgotten
to pick you up from soccer

and left you stranded
for three hours,

you'd have gotten a phone
when you were 11 too.

- Nice dig.

But your mom is right.

This isn't some special
boy privilege, all right?

Kenny's phone is for
emergencies only!

All right?

It's not for socializing.

- Wow, you guys are so naive.

- Debate club's over. Get in.

- And the best part
about having my own phone is,

you can't ditch me
at the park anymore.

- I swear to god, Kenny,

if you even think about
tracking my location,

I'll murder you in your sleep.
- Hey!

No one is tracking
anyone's location around here.

Everybody got that?

We are not that kind of family.

- Yeah.
Damn, damn, damn straight.

All right? No...tracking.

[car door closes]

- [sighs] I forgot
my basketball shoes.

Coach is gonna make me
run extra laps.

- Oh. Wait.

What is this back here?

Oh!

It's only everything
you need for practice.

[laughs]
- Wow.

Mom's usually way better
at remembering school stuff.

No offense.

- None taken.

Uh, and just so you know,
dinner is already

waiting in the fridge,
and the laundry

has been washed and folded.

- And only another week
till Mom comes home.

How bad could our lives
fall apart in seven days?

- [laughs]

- So have you found
a replacement for Truck yet?

- I went with a floater.
- Mm.

- Yeah, I'm not ready to hop
into another long-term

relationship so soon,
so I think I'll play

the field for a while.
- Mm, I don't blame you.

But after all
that Lennox drama,

I think I'm ready
to settle down.

- With Novak?
- Yep. [sighs]

- I thought she was
a walking red flag.

- Oh, yeah, she is.

But the truth is, my standards
aren't that high.

I know I'm never gonna find
another Brett.

But Novak has got some skills,

and she's not a shill
for Chief Robinson,

so I think I'm gonna
put a ring on it.

- Listen up.

Boden will be back
in a few weeks.

Till then,
I'm 51's ranking officer,

so come to me
with any house issues.

Kylie will be filling in
for Mouch while he's in Atlanta

taking that tech rescue class.

We got a new floater this shift
joining Truck.

Welcome, Jack Damon.

- Hey, Jack.
- Jack.

- Hey.

- And that's all I got for now.

Get back to work.

- Hey. Welcome, Damon.

I'm Lieutenant Kidd.

- I know who you are.
- Ooh.

- Hell of a reputation
precedes you.

I've been requesting a shot
at 51 for a long time.

- Oh.
- Hey.

Welcome.
- Shoulders, check.

Are those eyes sparkly or what?

This is gonna be fun.

- Novak.
- What?

Don't think I didn't pick up on
you and Carver having a thing.

So I can't look that way
anymore,

but great minds, right?

- Um, I'm gonna
talk to Severide.

I'll meet you
at the rig for inventory.

- Yeah, copy that.
- Yeah.

Third shower stall
has a leak in it.

- Coffee maker is
officially on the fritz.

It's making the noise again.
- The size of Niagara Falls.

- I'll put in a rec
for a new one.

Meantime, bring Boden's out
to the kitchen.

Tony, grab a wrench. Fix it.

- Uh, is it all right if Javi

comes by the house later?
Chloe's out of town again.

- Javi's welcome here anytime.

- Kids will do that.
- Yeah.

- It's Javi I wanted
to talk to you about.

So you remember during
the adoption process

when we told you he had
an uncle in Honduras?

- Yeah, and you said he didn't
want anything to do with him.

- That was true at the time.

But it turns out,
things have changed.

Javi's uncle, Dennis Mejia,
is here from Honduras

- What--hold on.

He's allowed to suddenly
change his mind like that?

- He just wants to visit
with him while he's in Chicago.

I know it's sudden, and I
understand your hesitation.

But it might be good for Javi
to meet someone from his past.

Maybe Dennis could answer
some questions about his family

or what life was like
in Honduras.

this Dennis could claim

guardianship rights over Javi?

ahead of ourselves.

It's just one meeting,

within his rights to do so.

permanent position.

I'm not really
into staying anywhere

for the long haul, you know?
