TK STRAND:
Oh, my God, this is terrible.

Babe, I can't believe
I missed this.

What? What's going on?

Our aspirin expired
two months ago.

So? What's the big deal?

Because they check
for that kinda stuff.

They go through
our medicine cabinets?

Yes, it's the Department of
Family and Protective Services.

They, they kinda look
through everything.

Babe, you need to relax.

How am I supposed to relax?

I just FaceTimed Jonah
at that boarding school

that Enzo sent him to,

and he was crying
his little eyes out.

-All he wants is
to live with us.
-CARLOS REYES: And he will.

It's what your stepdad
wants for him. too.

This is basically
a formality.

Yeah, I don't know
about all that.

He's facing
25 years for fraud.

I don't think
the courts are gonna

hold his opinion
at a very high regard

if the social worker disagrees.

She won't.

(sighs deeply)

You think our emergency plan
is displayed well enough?

-I do.
-TK: Good.

'Cause I want her to know

that we can handle
a crisis.

We submitted sworn affidavits

of our work history
and job performance.

Pretty sure she knows.

Alright, what if she doesn't
like where we put his bed?

Where else would we put it?

I mean, we could
give him our room.

We're not giving him
our room.

But, babe, he's not gonna
have any privacy.

He will when we finish
these bookshelf partitions.

(sighs deeply)

What if she thinks our aesthetic
is too severe for a child?

(light music playing)

Our aesthetic...

is not too severe.

When the social worker
looks around,

she's not gonna care
about the bed

or the aspirin
in the cabinet.

She's going to care about
all the love we have for Jonah.

-I sure hope so.
-I know so.

This is where your brother
is going to grow up.

We're going to be a family.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Now grab a hammer
and work on that bookshelf.

(chuckles) Okay.

MATEO CHAVEZ:
So why can't we get
a dog again?

(chuckles)
Because we are too busy

and dogs are really needy.

And we're both allergic to cats.

Yeah, but plants are, like,
the most boring pet ever.

They are not boring.
They're magic.

I mean, look at those
money trees over there.

They're definitely plants.

They're lucky.

MATEO:
I could get behind that.

So should we just get, like,
the biggest one here, yeah?

Uh, well, not too big,

because we're gonna have
to schlep it back and forth

between our places.

Seriously? The tree?

Look, why don't we
just move in already

and let's just get it over with?

Babe, you know
I'm not ready for that.

Well, when will you be?

What are we waiting for?

We both know how this is
gonna end up either way.

Which is?

Marriage.

Or not.

Um, Nancy, do you not wanna

get married to me?

I don't wanna
get married to anyone.

I don't believe in marriage.

You don't believe in marriage?
What? What does that even mean?

Baby, I'm just saying that
I don't think that you and I

need rings to prove that
we're each other's person.

Right here.

-Right. Yeah. You're right.
-Yeah.

Are you freaking out?

I feel like
you're kinda freaking out.

No, I'm just looking
for the most portable one

that we could, um, carry back
and forth, like you said, right?

You know, what about this one?

You like that one?
Yeah. Let's get that one.

Oh, hey, bro.
I-I was gonna pick that one.

Well, then why
is it in my hands?

Uh, because
you snaked it from me.

What's your problem?

Hey, babe, Teo,
let's just get another.

I don't want
another plant, okay?
I want this one.

Listen to your wife, buddy.

You don't want any part of this.

She's not my wife, jerk!

-Let it go.
-Or what? Huh?

Or I'm gonna kick
your little...

(grunting)

You said let it go.

(grunting)

-(punch thuds)
-(pots clatter)

Hey, just stay down, bro, okay?

Look, we don't even need
to do this right now.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean--

-Yo!
-Whoa! Dude!

MAN:
Get back, the both of you!

You, you're under arrest
for assault.

Dude, are you making
a citizen's arrest right now?

No, I'm off-duty APD.

Bro, I'm a firefighter.
We're on the same side here.

Call 9-1-1.
Tell 'em Sgt. Landon

is code 3 at this address,
they'll know what that means.

MATEO:
But you swung first.

Yeah? Tell it to the judge.

-PAUL STRICKLAND: Hey, Cap.

-Hey, Paul. What's up?
-Not much.

Just wanted to let you know
that Nancy just called

and said Mateo's

-She say where he was?
-PAUL: No.

Only that he had
a personal appointment

-that he couldn't get out of.
-OWEN STRAND: Hmm.

Alright.

Are you going somewhere?

Uh... Uh, yeah.

I, I too have
a personal appointment

that I can't get out of.

Oh, at the top of the shift?

Where you going?

It's a, uh...

Uh, it's a hair thing,

You always take your briefcase

-I work while I'm there.
-Hmm.

-Don't do that.
-Don't do what?

Dismissed, Lieutenant.

Hmm.

PAUL: Mm-hmm.

(sirens wailing)

So they were on the door
when it went up

and got caught in the gears.

-They?
-Jax is non-binary.

-They use they/them.
-Got you.

Lieutenant, you want me
to grab the airbag?

-PAUL: Yeah, please. Gallagher!
-GALLAGHER: Yes, sir?

Grab the rotary saw
and find the building manager

-so we can turn off
the power to the gate.
-GALLAGHER: Copy that.

Hey, Jax, we're gonna
get you down, okay, bud?

Greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

-PAUL: How's your arm?
-Fine. Just stuck.

The gate turned off
when I got caught.

It's probably a safety shut-off.

Hey, do I know you?
Doesn't she look familiar?

-Eh.
-Ysabel, keep filming.

-This is great content.
-YSABEL: Bet.

PAUL:
So how exactly did they
get stuck up there, anyway?

-EVAN: Um...
-No comment.

Probably playing chicken.

Kids film themselves
hanging off these gates

to see who jumps first.
Am I right?

PAUL:
Yeah, so I'm guessing
you lost, huh?

What makes you say that?

Favoring your right ankle.
Probably from the fall.

Hey, Marjan, can you check out
his ankle until EMS gets here?

Yes, sir.

Wait, you're Firefox.

Jax! Jax, this is Firefox!

Seriously? Hey, could you
follow my Insta?

JaxAtax! Two X's, one T,
and-and one exclamation point!

Why don't we get you
down first, alright?

Hey, I think there could be
a lot of synergy here.

They're gonna be
the next Jackass for Gen Z.

Yeah, they're certainly
on their way.

GALLAGHER (on radio):
Okay, power's off, L.T.

PAUL: Hey, Jax. I'm Paul.

Why don't you put
your feet over here

on this ladder
so you can rest?

-There you go.
Is that better?
-Yeah.

Great. Alright.

-How's your pain?
-Fine.

Cool Hand Luke over here, huh?

I don't know who that is.

(chuckles)
Don't worry about it.

Alright, look,
let me take that saw there.

I'm gonna try to cut you
out of here, okay?

-Okay.
-Cover you up with this.

If it starts to hurt,
you let me know, alright?

Okay.

Just gonna cover you.

Watch out for this box,

JAX: Got it.

(saw whirring)

PAUL:
Just gotta get through
these bars, and you're out.

(groans)

Hey, I thought you said
it wasn't hurting.

(straining)
I said it was fine.

I'm used to pain.

You sound like someone
who's made a habit out of it.

Yeah, not always by choice.

PAUL: Okay. (grunts)

-Alright. (grunts)

Okay, they're out!

Hey!

-You're welcome.

-You're okay.

-That was close, right?
-Yeah, too close.

Alright.

That was wicked!

Ysabel got all of it.

You're gonna trend for sure.

Hell, yeah.

PARAMEDIC:
Come here, kid,
let's check you out.

We baby-locked all the cabinets,
covered all the outlets.

We also have an emergency plan
in plain view

per the state's recommendation.

I assume we're calling
this Jonah's room?

We were actually talking about
just giving him the master.

ALISSA: I don't think
that's necessary.

I think this is adorable.

Who doesn't love
a race car bed?

(TK chuckles)

I told you she'd like it.

The purpose of a pre-adoptive
home screening is to ensure

Jonah is brought up in a stable
and loving environment.

-CARLOS: Mm-hmm.
-So I'd like to ask you

about the homes
you grew up in.

Carlos,
let's start with you.

You wrote that your
parents were married
for 31 years, correct?

-Correct.
-How would you describe
the household in a word?

In a word?
Um... Disciplined.

But my mom was
very affectionate, though.

Still is.

And your father?

Didn't really show it.

Especially when
I first came out.

Uh, but he did in the end.
He was a very loving man.

He was a great dad.

ALISSA:
TK, I see your parents
got divorced.

That can be
very traumatic for a child.

It was, but it made me
appreciate how important it is

to never take
your family for granted.

Do you think
it could have contributed

to your drug use later on?

Uh, sometimes addiction develops
as a response to trauma.

I see you checked
"yes" on having

a history with
drug or alcohol abuse.

Oh. Um, no, no, I...

I got hooked on pills
after a bike accident.

It had nothing to do
with my parents,

who were amazing,
by the way.

They're the ones
who got me into rehab and...

I mean, they saved my life.

TK has been sober
for five years.

Yes, I see
he wrote that here.

Well, he-he didn't
just write it in.

Uh, he goes
to meetings every week.

-He has a sponsor.
-Babe, it's okay.

Um, is that gonna
disqualify us?

Not if you're willing to
submit to random drug testing.

-Yeah, absolutely.
Of course.
-Yeah.

Then you should be fine.

Congratulations on five years,
by the way.

I'm in recovery myself.

I'd like to talk about something
slightly less sensitive now.

-Yes, please.
-Let's talk about your jobs.

CARLOS: Mm-hmm.

You both work
pretty long hours.

Yes, we do,

but we can get off
whenever we might need to.

It's true. And my mom
can be here anytime for Jonah.

I mean, 24/7. (laughs)
Whether we like it or not,

-right?
-(TK chuckles)

So, walk me through
a typical day's work for you.

Um, well, that's...

I mean, that's what
we love about our jobs.

-CARLOS: Yeah.
-There is no typical.

-(all chuckle)
-ALISSA: I can only imagine.

As a paramedic,
you must have
some wild stories.

I wouldn't even know
where to start.

Well, there was that time that

I got stuck
in a toxic gas cloud

or running through lava bombs.

Lava bombs?
That's like out of a movie.

No movie script
would be that ridiculous.

What about you, Carlos?

As a Texas Ranger,

you must have
your fair share
of adventures.

Well, I mean,
it comes with the territory.

You never know if you'll be
chasing down bank robbers

or kicking in the door
to a cartel stash house.
(chuckles)

Amazing.

(scribbling notes)

I think I have
everything I need.

So...

(TK sighs)

Did we pass?

Are you gonna recommend
for Jonah to come live with us?

I'm afraid
I can't do that.

-What?
-Why not?

Your little brother has
already lost both of his parents

to tragic circumstances.

His mother's sudden death,
his father's incarceration.

I can't place him in a home
where both adoptive parents

are involved
in such dangerous work.

Heroic as it may be.

I'm sorry.

♪♪♪

Hey, Dr. Collins.

Hi, Tommy.
How are you feeling?

Well, I had an egg yesterday
that I managed to keep down.

And I watched an entire episode
of Bridgerton

without falling asleep,
so I think, uh,

I might finally
be turning that corner.

Good. That's good.

And yet you say it
like it's not.

(Tommy softly chuckles)

Dr. Collins...

what's going on?

I just looked
at your latest scans,

and the results
are concerning.

How concerning?

This is your scan from
when we started treatment.

This is from today.

As you can see,
the tumors have grown.

No, this doesn't
make any sense.

No, this, this treatment...

was supposed to be
a sure thing.

With cancer,
there's never a guarantee.

Okay.
Could, could it just be
that they're swollen?

Right?
That can happen, right?

The immune cells attack
the cancer,

and it causes the tumors
to swell before they shrink.

DR. COLLINS:
That can happen, yes.

In very rare cases.

But either way,
I'm afraid it may not matter.

What does that even mean?

This tumor here is now
pressing against your aorta.

It looks like it's already
started a small bleed.

If it grows another millimeter,
it's going to rupture.

Is there anything we can do?

There's no surgery for something
that close to your heart.

What am I looking at here?

Months?

Weeks?

Less?

It's impossible to say.

(gentle, somber
piano music playing)

Um...

My girls are in Atlanta...

visiting their uncle for a week.

Should I be calling them
to come home?

I think that's for the best.

Mr. Chavez, I'm Officer Ross.
This is Agent Sutton.

Listen, what that
cop said is BS, okay?

I'm AFD,
and he totally started it.

-We know.
-You do?

That guy's always
been such a dick.

Here, let me
help you with those.

MATEO: Oh...

Thank you.

So, does this mean
that I'm off the hook?

No, you'll still be charged
with disorderly conduct

for smashing
all those plants,

but we should have you
out of here soon.

So why is there
an FBI agent here?

Well, I'm not with the FBI,
Mr. Chavez.

I'm from Immigrations
and Customs Enforcement.

ICE.

As a Dreamer,
I'm sure you're aware,

any unlawful actions puts
your DACA status in jeopardy.

And that we take all attacks
on law enforcement

extremely seriously.

No matter who started it.

MATEO: That's crazy.

I didn't know
that was a cop.

AGENT SUTTON:
Well, be that as it may,

considering the severity
of the incident,

we've had to make
a very difficult decision.

Decision?
What decision?

(Agent Sutton clears throat)

Mateo Chavez,

this letter is to notify you
of the process of removal.

If you leave
the country voluntarily,

you'll be allowed
to reapply for legal re-entry

in the next
two to three years.

What are you saying?

I'm saying we're
deporting you, Mr. Chavez.

Hey, Jax. Hey, buddy.

Hey, Paul.
What are you doing here?

Uh, I... I just wanted
to see if you were okay.

Ah, it's just a few stitches.
I've had worse. (chuckles)

I do not doubt that.
You got a second?

Do you always visit the hospital
of people you rescue?

Well, sometimes
the rescue is not over

just because you bring
someone to the hospital.

(Paul clears throat)

I saw some of your TikToks.

I saw some videos of you
base jumping, car surfing.

Listen, Jax,
you're, you're a brave kid,

but some of those stunts
you're doing
are just plain stupid.

I don't know
what to tell you, man.

You don't get likes
playing it safe.

That's kinda what I wanted
to talk to you about.

You know, of all the videos
I've seen,

do you know which one was
the most concerning to me?

Grocery cart
on the highway?

No, no.

It's the one you posted
before you started doing
all the daredevil stuff.

Today was rough,
you guys.

I had to introduce myself
at my new school,

and when I said my pronouns,

the teacher groaned

and then some kids
started laughing.

People just don't get how
painful it is to not be seen.

Jax, I know what it's like
to wanna feel seen.

And doing this stuff is
going to get you eyeballs,

but it's going
to get you killed.

That's not true.

Yes, it is.

You have no idea how many kids
I've scraped off the pavement

because of one stupid mistake.

No, I mean, respectfully,

you don't know what it's like
to not be seen.

What makes you say that?

Oh, come on, man,
you're a firefighter.

You're a hero.

Nobody cares about me.
Everybody looks up to you.

First of all,
I care about you.

And I'm also trans.

What?

You? No way.

I wasted so much time

trying to prove who I was
to everybody else.

Trying to justify
my existence.

But I don't have to do that.

We do not have to do that.

But believing that we do
is dangerous.

I just wish I had someone
who would have told me

that I was enough.

So I'm telling you...

you are enough.

(voice breaking)
Um, thanks.

Thanks for,
thanks for saying that.

You're welcome.

While we're on that,
I highly recommend

you get some new friends.

to death on TikTok.

Yeah, well,

on where to find them,

Why don't you come down

living with her grandparents
for the last couple months.

Did they get custody?

No, no,
it's nothing like that.

It's just, I was going through
some personal stuff,

and, uh, I'm actually
in recovery now.

Oh, I, uh...

Judd, I didn't... I didn't...
I didn't know, man.

I mean, that's the way
it usually goes, right?

But, yeah.
Yeah, your dad actually
helped me out a lot.

He saved my life.

So in that sense, you know,

it kinda makes us, uh...

Like brothers.

-JUDD: Like brothers, yeah.
-Yeah.

Look, you know how
in the program they say

that we just gotta do
the next right thing?

With this whole Jonah deal...

just keep doing
the next right thing.

It's gonna be okay.

Yeah.

Hey, probie,
where are the shammies?

I'ma kill them. I'ma...

(laughs) I swear.

My God, woman. Hang on.

You're gonna get your shammy.
You want a shammy?

-No, don't throw that.
-MATEO: Hey, you're the probie.

You should be doing this,
by the way, too.

Oh!

-You're about to get...
-Oh! Hey!

(yelling and laughter continue)

Hey, everybody.

Uh, I have an announcement.

Um, Captain, you wanna get,
uh, TK and the rest of EMS?

Sure thing.

It's the whole squad.
Must be serious.

What's going on, Dad?

Uh...

This is gonna be harder
than I thought.

I have something that,
um, I need to say.

It may be hard for me
to get through.

-Is the cancer back?
-No, no, no.

It's, it's nothing like that.
It's not the end of the world.

But something has come up.

(phones blaring)

Saved by the bell.

I don't think so.

"Asteroid threat to Austin

in approximately one hour."

"Seek immediate shelter"?

"This is not a drill."

Good Lord.

So maybe it is
the end of the world.

NEWSCASTER (on TV):
If you are just tuning in,

no, the texts are not a joke.

We have confirmation
an asteroid

is on a collision course

with the skies over Austin
56 minutes from now.

(beeps)

NANCY GILLIAN:
This is a thing that
can just happen?

Asteroids hitting Earth?

Well, one crashed in Siberia
about ten years ago.

-What did it do?
-Sent a shock wave 60 miles
wide in every direction.

NEWSCASTER:
We are joined on the phone
by Dr. Marie Rao,

whose team at JPL
first spotted the asteroid.

Dr. Rao, what can you
tell us about it?

DR. MARIE RAO:
It's roughly 70 feet wide,
8,000 tons,

and traveling
50,000 miles an hour

towards the Austin Metroplex.

Somebody in this town
has really bad karma.

And what's going to happen
when it hits the atmosphere?

DR. RAO: That's the
million-dollar question.

It could shatter
into thousands
of harmless fragments

and rain down
in the Texas Hill Country.

Or it can retain its size
and hit downtown Austin,

which would likely
involve catastrophic,

if not total loss of life.

So either it kills everybody
or it kills nobody.

Either way, people are
gonna be freaking out.

(dramatic music playing)

City officials are pleading

for people to shelter in place
as roads are jammed.

Shops have been
looted and burned,

and perfect strangers
have been seen

crying into each other's arms

as everyone comes to grips

with the possibility
of extinction

in about 39 minutes.

Okay, that's, that's

Yeah, for years,

Oh, come on,

You called me

I heard you.

At all those barbecues

you never invited me to.

Well, we never thought

You'd always

MILTON: Goodbye, Chris.

Enjoy the apocalypse.

Wait, wait, wait!
Wait! Wait!

Okay, you know what?
You're right.

I did call you
a doomsday prepper,

OWEN: No, it's the most

We'll never get him out in time.
