You got work and school

Oh. I know that smile.

Okay. Spill. I wanna
hear all the details.

- MAYA: Unh-unh.
- Give it to me.

- [CHUCKLING] No.
- Tell me all the details.

- No. No.
- Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

... Mayoral Candidate
Michael Dixon. Good Morning.

Good morning, Miss Zane.
Thank you for having me.

- Ugh, no. No.
- Mr. Dixon, you've

- recently called for...
- Where's the remote?

- ...Seattle Fire Chief Natasha Ross...
- I don't... Oh.

... currently alleged to
having had inappropriate

- working relationships, to resign.
- No, no, no, no,

Yes. In her first few
months on the job,

- Chief Ross closed four stations.
- Where is the remote?!

- She had it!
- No! It was on when I got in!

- It's probably right here.
- Oh, you've gotta be...

- It's not under the rug.
- Just stop... Just stop...

[SIGHS]

Oh, thank God.

It's not right, what
they're doing to Ross.

I mean, they're two consenting adults

who had a history from before
they were even firefighters.

Yeah, it's definitely complicated.

It... It's the rules that
make it stupidly complicated.

Pe... People are gonna
do what they have to do

to be whole human beings.

You know, this sucks.

Yeah, you're right.

Oh, if you're going to talk
to Sullivan, I already tried.

- He's...
- Nope, but I'm definitely awake now,

so I'm gonna go throw some hoses

- and pretend that they're Dixon.
- Nice.

Oh, okay. No, this is more about Ross

than it was about Ripley.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Everyone's registered to vote, right?
- Are you serious?

- I was your campaign manager.
- I am serious.

And frankly, you should be
asking all of your friends

if they're registered, too.

Oh, okay.

Hi, friend. Are you registered to vote?

- Yes, I am, in fact.
- Oh.

Gibson, what about you?

Hmm. How about the Mariners, huh?

TRAVIS: I knew it. Come on, Gibson!

Oh, my God. You get to have a
say on who makes the decisions.

And you know what?

It is your civic duty to
show up at the polls...

Washington is a mail-in state.

- It was a metaphor.
- Oh.

And you have an obligation
to make your voice heard,

and if you don't... well,
if you don't and Dixon wins,

then you don't get to complain
about all the terrible things

he's gonna do to us
and the City of Seattle.

Your little friend Eli
tell you to say that?

No. Robel said it the
other night at a fundraiser.

But we're not talking about me
right now, we're talking about Gibson.

- So, Gibson?
- Okay.

- Uh, how do I register?
- Alright, give me your phone.

We're gonna do it online right now.

You don't have your... Okay.

- Morning.
- Hey.

Oh, hey. Good morning.
It's Powell, right?

Glad to see I'm still making
impressions wherever I go.

Eh.

I am subbing for Dr. Fire

until he's a little less humpty-dumpty.

He literally just fell through
a roof trying to save lives.

Maybe not the best joke.

Yeah, sure, no problem.

Now I see why B-shift
calls you guys "The View."

Mornin', Captain Fire.

SULLIVAN: [CHUCKLES] Morning, Powell.

Does everybody get nicknames?

Um... yeah.

There's, uh... Legacy Fire.

[CHUCKLES] Legacy Fire. Crisis Fire.

What about me?

You're...

You are, um...

K, well, this has been fun.

Thanks for the grub.

I've got a turnout locker I gotta find.

Hmm.

Oh, my God.

I have secondhand embarrassment.

[LAUGHTER]

You made me feel better

but try to keep it professional, Gibson.

TRAVIS: Well, you
are one to talk, Captain.

- Pot. Kettle.

Whatever, man, it's... It's not the
same. We were together before we

- even worked in the same house.

I'm not sure The Chronicle
would see it that way, Ruiz.

THEO: Beckett?

- [CLEARS THROAT]
- VIC: Crap.

Yeah, but if he's back, the
department signed off on it, right?

And that means we should trust him?

- Maybe he got the help he needed.
- Hm. That quick?

Come on, someone's gotta
have an in with the Chief.

Fire Zaddy, you've gotta know something.

- Excuse me?
- [SIGHS] Touched a nerve.

Okay, so what, you slept
your way to the top.

You're not the first. You

Beckett is back on a

You were there when
this happened to my son?

- Yes, yes, I was there.

Why... W... Why wouldn't the workers

bring him outside before this happened?

The house was hard to navigate.

Ma'am, you... you...
You didn't do anything.

No. No, I told him that
this was the last time.

I told him that he couldn't call me

until he was sober for a year.

[SIGHS]

Please, you have to help me.

I need to know how this happened.

Please.

Please.

Um... the fire started in the kitchen.

It was a grease fire,

so it... it spread
very quickly, and, uh...

SULLIVAN: You know,
you don't get to be mad.

- Excuse me?
- I'm a punchline.

You're an ass.

You could've confided in me.

But instead, you... You
gas-lit me for months.

I mean, I knew. I knew what I saw.

And you told me... it was nothing,

that it was all in my head. [SCOFFS]

And now you're telling me
what I'm allowed to feel

while Ross is publicly pummeled?

- I was protecting her.
- Okay.

- Just like I was protecting you.
- And what are you doing now?

- Well, I...
- Hmm?

Sulking in corners while your
overinflated ego is bruised,

which is also what you did with me.

What? [SIGHS]

You're not pissed because people know.

- [SIGHS]
- you're pissed because she prioritized

the integrity of this department
over you and your rank.

- What?
- That's it.

Get over yourself long

or at least to help the rest of us

not lose everything we've worked for.

You know what? I am
filing a formal complaint...

Okay, behind me are people who are hurt.

Those parents' lives will
be permanently changed

from this moment forward.
But you think this is an inconvenience?

You are an inconvenience,
keeping me from doing my job

because you'd rather be somewhere else.

Everyone behind me
would rather be somewhere

less scary, less painful,
and less life-altering.

Get back to your car right now!

[SIGHS] We do not do this here.

Come with me.

Come on. Go, go, go.

You okay?

That girl's life will never be the same.

But she lived. That's a win, right?

NATASHA: Good work, team.
Let's get this scene cleared up.

I guess Ross still
thinks she's in charge.

She was probably busy climbing
someone to save her career.

You guys don't know what
the hell you're talking about.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Says the guy who screwed

the Chief to jump ranks.

- Hey, shut up, man!
- Sullivan, stop!

You think you could do a
better job than her, huh?

A woman who's a decorated w*r hero,

who constantly risked her own life

to save thousands of others, huh?

Who received multiple commendations

for her valor and bravery

within FD in multiple cities.

She's more qualified to be where she is

than you are to hold a hose,

let alone a life in your hands.

And you're walking around
here making petty jokes.

I'm good! Throwing jabs all day.

And you know what's worse?

She would still risk her own
life to save your sorry asses.

You guys came to FD to look
like you're worth something,

whereas Chief Ross is an actual hero.

Get the hell out of my way.

♪♪♪

Alright, everyone, get back to work!

Thank you. Bye.

Uh, John lived.

Gave Edna her ring,

and she said, "Yes," all over again.

- You called the hospital?
- I know, man.

I just... I just needed to
know that he... he made it.

I don't know who I am anymore, man.

I mean, I used to be
ambitious and cocky,

and now, it's... it's, like,
I don't want to be captain.

I-I don't know how to flirt. [CHUCKLES]

And apparently, I really
care about old people.

Well, for what it's worth...

I think I like you better now.

You've been through a
lot the last couple years.

That changes people.

For you... you got pretty weird.

But you also got more honest,

even admitted to having
feelings like a real person.

[WASHER DOOR CLOSES]

Jack, who we are changes all the time...

if we're lucky enough to stay alive.
I mean, look at John and Edna.

They lived long enough
to have whole lives,

then find each other again
and have whole new lives.

Yeah, no, that makes sense.

- Thanks, Montgomery.
- Yeah.

Uh, we don't... We
don't need to... Okay.

Alright, let's not make
a habit of this, alright?

This is Vic's gig.

You're gonna spoil
your appetite, Herrera.

Well, you're cooking...

- so I don't know if I have one.
- VIC: Wow.

So you're good at Crisis One-ing
and now you're cooking?

What is this? I feel like
I'm in the Twilight Zone.

I didn't have a meal
with the Scooby g*ng

the whole time I was Captain.

I figured I was... past due.

Who are you?

[CLEARS THROAT]

[SIGHS]

Are we celebrating something?

Uh... I am sorry.

To all of you.

Well, not you, Powell.

Uh, I was...

I was not myself for
a very long time, and...

And what you did...
I-I-I think you all saved...

a lot of lives with that mutiny,

- and I'm grateful.
- [DOOR OPENS]

I know who I am now,
and I-I know what I want.

And, you know, I will not...

[SIGHS]

I will not be seeking my Captaincy back.

- What?
- Yeah, that's the truth.

I just want to... clean my slate,

and I hope that is something
that you all... can accept.

Well... I don't know about all that yet,

but... you had me at steak, Beckett.

[LIGHT CHUCKLING]

[CHUCKLES] God, I hope
Dr. Fire is out for days.

- Thanks, Becks.
- See, everyone gets a nickname.

- Well, come on.
- Okay, fine.

Gibby. There you go.

Never mind. Never mind.
I-I don't need one.

TRAVIS: No, no, no.
Gibby, I think, is perfect.

VIC: Uh, Giblet.

- ALL: Giblet!

Could you...

It's never cool when
you give yourself...

- Gibby, pass me a bun.
- Yeah, it never catches on.

Why are you running?
Where are you going?

O-Okay. Uh... okay, yes.

Hey, look, Milo may never
be able to understand

the decisions you had to make,

Benjamin Warren, but he is alive.

And from what I saw,
he's surrounded by love.

- You saved his family.
- No, I saved that woman's family.

I didn't save Milo's.

Since when do you have this much
paperwork to do after shift?

Because Beckett left his program early,

and now I have to report his
condition after every shift.

He didn't finish the program?

- The office suits you, Ruiz.
- What do you need that for?

Well, when my, uh, old
Captain, Fowler, was retiring,

he told me I would be replacing
him, and he gifted this to me.

And [CLEARS THROAT]
I'd like you to have it.

It's inscribed to him.

I mean, first the steak dinner

and now he's giving away personal items.

Mm. Maybe you're just
reading too much into it.

Is this because you hate him?

- 'Cause this is... not normal.
- No, Vic.

It's because not
everything is a-a psych test.
