Original subtitles

Gunshot wounds to the abdomen and left chest.

He's my brother.

NARRATOR: Previously on Chicago Fire...

If this was all about gangs, there is one cop who could have helped out.

Don't even think about it.

This conversation becomes about favors.

Sometimes you got to dance with the devil.

Voight tried to take me out.

CLARICE: You know, Daniel's planning on using the fact

that I was on anti-depressants as proof that I'm mentally unstable.

Well, screw Daniel.

You have two weeks to find a new place.

What?

Where am I going to live? Where am I going to go?

I got no right to ask this, but...

I think if you reached out to her,

it could go a long way towards turning things around.

SEVERIDE: Renee?

I'm doing fine.

Thanks for your concern.

I just got a call from a hospital.

She took a bunch of pills.

(GUNSHOTS)

Cruz! I'm coming in!

Dammit, Cruz!

Are you a fireman or a kamikaze pilot now?

Fire's out. That's all that matters.

It matters if you get yourself killed.

Thanks, Mom.

Matt... I'll see you tomorrow morning.

We can talk then.

Oh, oh, oh. Jeez.

Mom, why are you hiding from your parole officer?

(SIGHING) I went out last night.

If she tests me, I won't pass.

Just please get rid of her.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

Ms. Kendrick. Hi, Matt. I'm here to check in on Nancy.

Yeah, you just missed her. She's out for a walk.

I can wait.

Uh, my shift is about to start. I, uh...

Fine.

I'll try later. Thank you.

Leslie.

Ms. Larocque, so sorry.

This is just how it is when I'm on shift.

My apologies. Um, look,

Daniel's rejected her offer.

He wants full custody.

I thought you said he'd take the deal.

It was a good deal, but the father has a strong case.

Does he? Let's look at it from his lawyer's perspective.

We've got a switch hitter

who married a man, conceived a child with him,

then left him and took the child

to go live with her former lesbian lover,

a woman with a time consuming

and very hazardous occupation.

Oh, come on. I'm just looking for ways

to normalize this scenario

as much as possible. Normalize?

For instance, you two shacking up with a skirt-chasing firefighter

is not helping our cause.

I was just trying to tell her how Kelly has been so helpful.

Ladies, you want me to convince a judge

that you're serious about being a family?

Then you need to get Clarice and this baby

into a warm, loving, nurturing, and yes, normal home.

Okay.

We'll get our own place.

(BEEPING) (BUZZER)

(SIRENS WAILING) MAN: (OVER RADIO) All companies be aware,

we have lightweight truss construction

with heavy structure fire.

MAN: We can't get down the stairs! It's too hot!

All companies, third floor rescue.

Casey, get me two ladders. Got it!

Keep it flowing! Herrmann, Mills, Cruz,

up the second ladder!

(GRUNTS)

Come on. Got you.

Come on. I got you man. All right?

CASEY: You're doing good, man.

Have a seat, sweetheart.

Good job, man. (COUGHING)

You okay? Yeah.

What about Hudson? You have to get him.

The dog. GIRL: Hudson! Hudson!

Cruz! Stay put, Cruz.

Wait a minute! I can hear him!

Come here, boy!

Cruz! Get out of there!

Cruz! Cruz!

MOUCH: Cruz!

CRUZ: Hudson!

Hudson!

Where are you, boy? (BARKING)

Come here! Come on!

(CRUZ SCREAMING) (CRASHING)

Man down! Man down!

I'm going!

(BEEPING)

MOUCH: Cruz! Call out!

Cruz!

Cruz, you okay buddy?

CRUZ: Yeah, yeah, I think so.

All right. We've gotta move.

CASEY: Watch out! Mouch!

Whoa!

Mouch! Mouch!

MOUCH: I'm okay!

CASEY: Mouch!

This way! Follow me!

CRUZ: Watch the flames!

I got you! Let's go.

(PANTING)

Mouch, you okay? Yeah.

You sure, man? Let 'em check you out.

Yeah, I'm fine!

Hey Casey, how about you? You all right?

Yeah.

You've got a second degree burn here.

Take him to the hospital. It's nothing, Chief.

Take him to the hospital.

GIRL: You okay? Good boy.

This is out of control.

(GROWLING)

(TRUCK BEEPING)

Hey, Whaley.

Any new updates on Renee?

She's okay, physically.

But they're going to keep her in a 72-hour hold.

Psychiatric observation.

Did you talk to her?

She wouldn't see me.

I, uh, I don't know what to do.

Thank you. Hey.

Hey.

How long are you going to freeze me out?

I'm not freezing you out.

I got to talk to Boden.

Yeah, sure. Cruz is still in the E.R.

He's telling the doctors he wants to come back and finish his shift.

Did you happen to notice if Cruz's bunker gear had a cape sewn into it?

No, Chief.

It definitely does not.

Then please dissuade your man of the notion that he is invincible.

Sure.

MAN ON COMPUTER: And that's how our fellow firefighter was saved today.

Fifty-six hits in less than an hour.

Just tell me this thing's not going to go viral.

Glad to see Mouch's near-death experience

can help drive traffic to your podcast.

The whole point of the podcast is to show people what we really do.

You're supposed to be looking up how-to videos on taping drywall.

All right. We got to get back to

fixing up the Bombardier, all right?

We're behind schedule. Oh, stop calling it the Bombardier.

That name has poisoned the well with the locals.

We've got to...

Re-christen it something else.

May I propose

Mustache Pete's?

No, you may not.

We need something simple.

A single, evocative word, like, uh...

"Solstice," or "Perception," or, um

"Pretentious." Or we could call it something fun,

like "Mustache Pete's."

You can name the place "Out Of Business"

if we don't get back on schedule.

Okay, okay, here we go.

"How To Tape Drywall.

"Part One of... Fifteen."

Gee, you know who I bet's really good at drywall?

Casey.

Too bad somebody got on his bad side

by fraternizing with one Detective Voight.

Hey, uh, listen, I need to... Hey!

Have I thanked you lately for opening your trap about Renee?

Because she's currently in a psych ward.

Kelly, she needs help.

How fun do you think this is for her?

Yeah. What, what'd you want to talk about?

(ALARM WAILING) (BUZZER)

DISPATCHER: (OVER P.A.) Ambulance 61, person down. Later.

Michigan and Upper Wacker.

Hey, Christie.

I have a new proposal regarding Mom.

Give me a call when you can. Bye.

Hey, Mouch.

You okay?

I came to you a while back about Cruz.

How there's something off about him.

And you told me to shut up.

In so many words, I guess.

So, are you still in charge of our truck,

or do I have to go around you and talk to Boden?

Watching you and Kelly move back in and out of that place

is like watching a ping-pong match.

(CHUCKLING) I know. I get it.

I just hope he understands.

WOMAN: I tried to get him to come inside a store, but he won't move.

Hey, it's too cold for you to be out here, hon.

What's your name?

Mick. Mick, can you stand up?

You think you can walk over to that ambulance?

Come on, Mick. Oh, yeah. We got you.

DAWSON: Whoa! Seventy over fifty.

What are you on? Mmm.

(CHUCKLING) Okay, fine.

But it looks like you might be suffering from exposure,

so we're going to get you to the hospital. All right?

Nah. Yeah.

It's nice and warm at the hospital, Mick.

You'll like it. Lots of pretty nurses.

Prettier than you two?

C'mon, be realistic.

Hey, don't worry about Severide.

He'll totally understand why you need to move out.

I know, but just...

After all the drama, it just sucks.

Having a lawyer make decisions about your living situation.

Okay, Mick, just a little pinch.

MICK: Ahhh! (PANTING)

We'll keep trying to convince him to consent to a blood draw,

but we can't force him to.

DOCTOR: And unless he does,

we can only guess at what transmittable diseases he's carrying.

And judging from this cocktail of anti-virals

you must think this guy is a walking petri-dish.

Hep B is always a big risk,

also Hep C.

The interferon therapy should protect you against those.

But, given the tracks on his arms and symptoms,

I think we need to treat you as though

you've been exposed to H.I.V.

How soon can we test for H.I.V?

Not for three months after exposure.

Here's the first one.

Hey, you're going to be fine.

The statistics are way in your favor.

I mean, it's like Russian Roulette. Large bore needle,

filled with this guy's blood. If he has the hiccups,

I'm going to catch them.

Hey, uh, Lieutenant.

I was hoping to ask you a question.

Um, I was looking at the list of upcoming classes at the academy,

and I'm trying to figure out which ones to take to,

if possible, make the move to Squad.

Let me eat my Corn Flakes first.

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

We can finish the exposure paperwork later.

Don't worry, Shay.

You're getting the best care available.

Thanks, Chief.

What's wrong with her?

Needle stick.

Oh! Was he sick?

Yellow, track marks.

And he didn't agree to a blood panel.

You okay?

I just want this shift to end.

Casey hates me. Now my partner gets stuck.

Casey?

Yeah, forget it. It's fine.

Screw him.

He doesn't understand you, it's his problem.

Yeah. Yeah, thanks Mills.

(SIGHS)

Even if it's just Hep C, it's...

You know, 80%o of infections are chronic,

and um, I'd be on disability for months.

And if Daniel's lawyer finds out...

You're getting ahead of yourself.

Wait for the tests to come back.

Yeah.

(SIGHS)

Um...

The lawyer said that living with you isn't normal enough,

(SNIFFLING) So I have to move out.

I'm sorry.

You do whatever it takes to keep you, Clarice and that baby together.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Hey, Mouch.

How's the arm?

Burned, but fine.

Hey, man, I wanted to thank you again.

It's in the job description, right?

Yeah.

Hey, also, I think I owe you an apology.

(SIGHS)

(KNOCKING)

(SIGHING)

I realize you may not understand why I went to Voight.

I didn't have another choice

and it made all the difference in Antonio's case.

He threatened me and my fiancee.

He saved my brother, Casey. (KNOCK AT DOOR)

Cruz is back in case you're interested.

CRUZ: I screwed up, Lieutenant.

It won't happen again. Believe me.

I tried that once already.

When you told me you could live with your sins.

That turned out to be a lie.

Lieutenant, you got to believe... This is not a conversation!

If you've come to hate yourself,

if you've decided that you don't deserve to live,

that's your problem.

Do you want to stand at the ceremony

where we pin Mouch's badge next to Darden's

because he burned to death trying to save someone

who's already dead inside?

If your badge isn't on Boden's desk by next shift,

I'll go to the police about Flaco.

It'll mean the end of my career, too, but hey,

I'll pound nails for a living.

What I can't do is stand by

and watch you endanger one more of my men.

REAL ESTATE AGENT: The kitchen's just been redone.

New cabinets, new appliances.

Laundry hookups are right over there.

Great.

Um,

school-wise, I know Wesley's young, but...

Oh, it's never too early to think about that.

We're in the very desirable Bell Elementary School District.

But, I have to be honest with you.

I've got a lot of people interested in this unit.

Okay, can you just give us, like, a second?

Sure. Thank you.

Uh, okay, thank you.

So, the, uh, the lawyer says

that Daniel's attorneys could find out about the needle stick

during discovery.

Look, Daniel's lawyer can say whatever he wants.

What that judge is going to see is a family,

ready to provide Wesley with a warm and loving home

in a very desirable school district.

You're right. (LAUGHS SOFTLY)

I'm sorry.

We'll take it!

(BUZZER)

What, you expected a strait jacket?

Why are you here, exactly?

Because your brother asked me to come.

Poor Eric.

He thinks he's finally cracked the puzzle that is Renee.

All this nonsense about me sleeping with Dean.

I'm not here to argue about that.

Oh, right, because as my life turned to ashes

you just coasted on and forgot all about me.

You don't know anything about my life.

(SCOFFS)

I know that Kelly Severide is doing just fine.

We're done. Take me back.

Open the door. Renee

(BUZZER)

Dawson, you have absolutely no idea what you're doing, huh?

What are you talking about?

Call Casey.

(SIGHS)

(CLANKING) HERRMANN: What the hell?

(CRUNCHING)

Whoa.

HERRMANN: Stephanides didn't say anything about a safe.

What do you think's inside? Nothing good.

My luck don't run that way.

Well, let's open it and find out!

Worse-case scenario, it's empty.

What if it contains a decomposed head

of some gangster that went missing in the twenties?

Next thing you know, this bar gets wrapped in crime scene tape

and we can't get back in here.

If there's a mobster's head in there,

Mustache Pete's is going to be famous.

We're not calling it Mustache Pete's. Yes we are.

Forget it.

That safe is bad news.

Look out. DAWSON: Hey, Herrmann!

Each week, my shift moves up a day.

Tuesday and Friday this week,

Monday and Thursday next week.

I've drawn up a list of house rules

that Mom would have to agree to.

Uh, curfews, when she can have visitors,

you can add whatever you want to the list.

Matt, no.

Christie, I need you.

Please.

At least on the days that I'm on shift.

Will I have to learn how to lie to her parole officer, too?

Mom.

Christie.

You look wonderful.

(WHISPERING) Mom...

Well, do you realize this is the first time

we've all been together as a family in 15 years?

Yeah.

I guess the real purpose of this meeting

is to discuss the Mom problem.

Okay, fine. I'll talk to Jim.

Okay. Now let's eat.

The chicken sandwich is great, by the way.

(CLEARING THROAT) I'm a vegan.

Since when?

Going on 10 years, Matt.

I did not know that. I...

Wow. Is that like a vegetarian?

Or is it the eggs thing you can't eat...

CRISTIE: Oh my gosh. CASEY: What?

CHRISTIE: Do I seriously have to explain this to you?

Hey, did you get my message? Yeah.

What'd she say?

Nothing that matters.

She's angry. At me?

At me. At, at everything.

Look, I'm sorry, but...

All this was against my better judgment

and now she's spinning out. So... No, I get it. I get it.

Thanks, Kelly.

This is, uh, it's my last shift at 51.

I'm glad we got the chance to work together.

Is Cruz going to grace us with his presence today?

I don't know.

Did you talk to him? I did.

How'd that talk go? Don't worry about it, Mouch.

I talked to him.

That's all you need to know.

PRIEST: You brood of vipers!

Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

Produce good fruit

as evidence of your repentance.

Even now the ax lies

at the root of the trees.

Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit

will be cut down

and thrown into the fire.

I am baptizing you with water, for repentance,

but the one who is coming after me is mightier than I.

I am not worthy to carry his sandals.

He will baptize you

with the Holy Spirit and fire.

And do not presume to say to yourselves,

we have Abraham as our father.

Look, Mom! A fireman!

PRIEST: To raise up children to Abraham with these stones.

Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan

to be baptized by him.

John tried to prevent it, saying I need to be baptized by you.

I read the whole thing, front to back.

There's no codicil in this deed about any safe.

We bought the bar lock, stock and barrel.

That means the safe rightly belongs to you, me and Otis.

Along with whatever's inside, whether it's an old stamp collection

or bearer bonds or gold doubloons!

You're outvoted, Herrmann. Two to one.

We didn't buy that bar hoping to find buried treasure.

We bought it as an honest investment.

And for the first time in my life, I feel like

I'm onto something good and real.

Now, whatever is in that safe,

somebody put it in there and locked it away for a reason.

Why don't we leave it alone

and get on with our plan?

Yeah, we're going to open the safe.

Seconded. (SIREN WAILING)

(BUZZER) DISPATCHER: (OVER P.A.) Truck 81, Ambulance 61,

Battalion 25. Bomb squad assist, Wrightwood and Kedzie.

MAN: (OVER RADIO) C.P.D. Be advised to divert all traffic.

Bomb disposal unit on site at Lincoln Square.

So, what exactly is our role in a bomb squad assist?

Nothing.

Not unless the bomb tech snips a wrong wire.

What's the story, Chief?

A tenant committed suicide in his car around back,

shot himself in the head.

But the police are suspect because the deceased was turned down

four times by the C.P.D. And there is a gasoline smell coming from inside.

MAN: Zoom in.

Our mast camera confirmed the place is wired.

We should cut our way in.

We have access to the apartment above?

(WHIRRING)

That'll do it. Great. We'll get out of your way.

Whoa...

There's a woman down there.

The neighbors say it's his ex-wife.

My guy will go in and see if it's secure,

and your guys can bring her out.

Severide,

you sure you want to do this?

We're here, right?

Going to need a jump bag, though.

BODEN: Copy that.

All right. Okay.

Carpet's wet.

Gasoline.

She's been stabbed.

Come on down.

Dawson, Shay.

She's got a steak knife stuck in her abdomen.

Pulse? SEVERIDE: Weak.

Hey! Can you get us out that door?

There's quick and there's safe. Which do you want?

SEVERIDE: I want to save this woman's life.

Huh. "Huh?" What, "Huh"?

A small, incendiary device,

set to spark the gasoline.

This will take a few minutes to disarm.

She doesn't have a few minutes.

I got two more wires splitting here.

It's wired here, too.

Headed...

Here we go.

I've got at least five pounds of mixed ammonium nitrate.

That plus the gasoline is a fertilizer bomb.

Hey, Chief, is everyone back?

You just get yourself down here, Kelly.

How's she doing, Severide?

Weaker. DAWSON: How much blood is on the floor?

Uh, it's not that much.

Then she's bleeding internally. You got to move.

Pack that knife so it doesn't shift when you move her.

SEVERIDE: Where the hell's that jump bag?

Whaley's here.

DAWSON: Use all the gauze and tape he's got to keep it secure.

Someone's always got it worse.

Ain't that right.

We're packing around the knife.

Hey, we need that door open now.

SEVERIDE: Attempting to disarm the door.

Kelly.

Kelly!

SEVERIDE: We're good. Door's open.

Woman's coming out.

Who says Engine only knows how to put out a fire?

(HUFFS)

Okay.

I'll talk to Boden.

(DOOR OPENING)

(DOOR CLOSING)

(SIGHING) What happened, Joe?

I kicked in that door,

convinced Leon was in there.

I even knew I was too late.

But it wasn't Leon.

It was Flaco.

Dead.

It was Flaco and you were too late.

All I could think was if I pull him out of those flames,

I might as well throw Leon back in.

You don't know that. I thought that God was just handing

me the answer to my problems.

But now I know it was the Devil.

I thought I could run from him,

nonstop, first one in, last one out,

and then I almost killed you.

I could've killed Otis

or Herrmann or Casey.

All because I'm weak.

(GASPING)

Well, now I know.

I'm the one that has to suffer,

not you.

Joe...

I forgive you.

(CRYING) It's not right for me

to bring my sins into this house

and have my brothers sacrifice for what I did.

Joe. Listen to me.

I forgive you. (CRYING)

(SIGHS)

What can I do for you, Casey?

Lieutenant!

Can I have a minute?

Now's not a good time, Mouch. Yes it is.

You don't have to do this to him.

There's more to it than you know, Mouch.

He told me everything.

Now, I don't know if he was waiting for God,

or Flaco's ghost, or just somebody to say it,

but he needed to know what he did was okay.

He screwed up.

He knows it.

But he was taking care of his family.

How far would you go for the ones you love?

How far have you gone?

(CHUCKLING) (CELL PHONE RINGS)

Hello?

Yes, this is Leslie Shay.

He consented to a blood draw.

That's good. Isn't it?

Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.

Okay, thank you.

He's clean. He tested negative for everything.

God...

(CHUCKLING)

Good luck, Renee. Yeah, thanks.

For real?

Come get in the car. Something we need to see.

Go to hell.

You're full of it, you know that?

Oh I am, huh?

Is that going to get me into your car?

Ignore everything that's real. Go ahead.

Whatever.

Your brother was a hero today.

That is so low.

You stopped, didn't you?

Thirty minutes,

then I take you anywhere you want to go.

(WHIRRING)

(DAWSON SIGHING) It's just a box.

We never should have opened this.

Mom's just getting her things. Okay.

Thanks for agreeing to this, Christie.

I really think it'll work.

Yeah, well tomorrow morning at 8:01,

she's all yours again.

Understood.

CHRISTIE: Friend of yours? Nope.

That's Cheyenne.

Your old cell mate? Yeah.

You two gave me back my freedom.

But I don't want to be your problem anymore.

So, I'm going to go stay with Cheyenne

until I figure out what's next.

Mom, I don't think your P.O. Is going...

Oh, don't worry. I'll sort things out with Kendrick.

But I'm not going to be the wedge

that drives you two apart anymore.

Oh...

Be a brother and sister again, okay?

You know, be there for each other.

NANCY: Hey, how's it going? CHEYENNE: Good.

Are we going to sign a lease or not?

Yes, we are.

We definitely are. I'm sorry, I can't get a hold of her.

Um... (DOOR OPENING)

Oh. Hey! Hey...

Did you get my message?

Yeah, that's, uh...

Great news.

We should sign the lease.

Uh, actually, would you mind giving us a second?

So, um,

Daniel offered to settle.

Yeah. Split custody,

I mean, if I move to New York with the baby.

Good! That's great!

He blinked! I took the deal.

What? I just, I can't keep fighting him anymore, Les.

So I'm going to go to, uh, I'm going to go to New York.

No. Clarice, just stand up to him.

We can win this. I'm leaving tonight.

Shay...

Okay, I get it.

Come on.

(HUFFS)

It's quieter than I remember.

Please, don't.

You're the one who said, "Life never looked simpler

"than it did from right here."

Well, that was crap. Sometimes a view is just a view.

(SIGHS)

You know? I never had anything close to a real relationship since you.

Really?

One girl I liked, really liked,

but she left.

Or I let her leave.

I should've made it work, but sometimes

it's easier just to let things fall apart.

I slept with Dean.

And now I see you,

and I see my family, and all I can see is what I lost.

Sometimes a view is just a view.

(SNIFFLING)

I've missed you.

I figured you hated me.

Oh, I did...

But not anymore.
