Your kidney disease

has progressed to stage five.

We need to start you on dialysis.

This can't be our little secret anymore.

You have to tell Bode.

BODE: Uncle Luke?

What's this? You all good?

Oh, yeah. I just had a physical today.

You said he got into some kind

of trouble early on?

You were gonna send him away,

but then Sharon came by?

You really want her job, don't you?

- It's got nothing to do with that.

- MANNY: I told you,

I don't want you doing this.

And I heard you.

It's just not up for debate.

JAKE: Really, Manny? On her first day?

She was out of line, and you're

about to be. I outrank you.

What if you stopped caring

about what your dad thinks?

Sounds like you need

to take that advice, too.

(GROANS) Hey! Hey!

(PHONE RINGING) Why is Bode calling you?

- People can change, Jake.

- No, not Bode.

What if I, uh, called you again?

I'd answer.

("BAD LUCK" BY

BLACK p*stol FIRE PLAYING)



(LINE RINGING)

(PHONE RINGING)

(GRUNTS)

Snake kept slithering

your serpent smile ♪

Oh, you got something to hide ♪

AUTOMATED VOICE: You have a call from

- BODE: Bode Donovan.

- AUTOMATED VOICE: an inmate

at the California Department

of Corrections.

To accept, press 1.

(BEEPS)

What do you want?

I just I just want

to clear the air, man.

About?

About me and Gabriela.

Let me get this straight.

You're not calling to apologize

for punching me in my face

My phone's not exactly blowing up

with apology calls from you, either.

Look, what do I have

to apologize to you about, Bode?

For walking around in my life

since I've been gone.

You really just you really

stepped into my spot

in the Cal Fire Leone line

of succession, huh?

You didn't want the spot, Bode.

The Leones are family to me.

Wow. Okay, Jake. All right.

Is that how you treat family?

By being disloyal?

No, Bode. That's how you treat family.

Your sister d*ed,

and you bailed.

Eve and I stayed, and we helped

pick up the pieces.

Bode, you should be thanking us.

Look, man. You-you and I

have enough baggage, okay?

I'm not calling to add to it.

No. No, no, no.

You were calling to make me aware

that you were calling my girlfriend.

I'm making sure that you know

that she and I are just friends.

Nothing more.

Bode, do you think

I'm worried about you?

You literally have nothing to offer her.

(SIGHS)

Well, you sound a little worried.

Gabriela and I are rock solid.

You and I?

Bode, you were gone for so long,

we assumed you were dead.

Mm. All right.

I'm done worrying about you.

I shouldn't have called.

No, you shouldn't have.

(PHONE BEEPS)

(GRUNTS)

Hey.

Thank you for meeting me here so early.

I'm gonna take the guys up

to Devil's Slide this morning.

You remember

when we went hiking up there?

We saw those baby eagles?

Not really in the mood to reminisce.

How long are we gonna

keep doing this, Gabriela?

Hmm?

I mean, emptying out the-the closet

That was a nice touch.

That wasn't a touch. I'm moving out.

You know, crashing at Jake's

house that's not moving out.

It's time to come home.

I thought you asked me here

to apologize.

Apologize?

For what?

Having an opinion about your life?

You never missed a first of mine.

Every recital, science fair,

swim meet, you were there.

And my first day at Cal Fire,

you were silent.

I never looked at it like that.

I'm sorry, mija.

Thank you.

So will you come back home?

At least for Sunday dinner?

I'd love to.

Makes me happy.

Under one condition.

You accept that I'm Cal Fire.

It's done.

The only thing left to do is

for you to accept it and support me.

You know I won't do that.

Then you know why I won't come home.

Hey, sorry. I'm on my way.

Fire just wouldn't quit.

Babe, it's fine. There's a fire.

That's what you're supposed to do.

I'm here already.

I just I hate that I let you down.

You called, and you want to be here,

and that means everything to me,

and it will mean a lot to Bode.

- Mom?

- Hey.

Did I know you were coming today?

No, I'm a surprise. (CHUCKLES)

- Hi, Bode boy.

- Hey.

Mmm.

Ah, your dad is here, too

on the phone. (LAUGHS)

We we need to talk to you.

Okay.

Who d*ed?

Nobody's dying.

This is It's pretty serious, though.

Um

I'm sick.

I have chronic kidney disease.

Why didn't you tell me?

'Cause I didn't want

to add to your stress here.

Kidney disease?

From wha? From what?

Just pulling the genetic short straw.

Years of fighting fires

didn't help, either.

Dehydration, hyperthermia.

Hazards of the job.

Okay.

How-how can I help? W

Do you need do you need a transplant?

Not yet. A transplant is the goal,

but I need dialysis first.

I need you to do good time.

I mean, like,

your next parole hearing is

in five and a half months, and

I need you to show that board

that you are a changed man.

I need you to follow every rule,

fly under the radar, I need you

to keep the peace with everyone.

That means Jake, too.

What's he got to do with this?

We just don't need a repeat

of the Buckeye

fire when you punched him.

Because every one

of those write-ups can hurt you.

I really need you at home now.

That would make your mama really happy.

Can you do that for me?

Yeah, Mom.

Thank you.

Thank you, Bode.

Hey, Cap, a word?

What is it, Bode?

I need to parole.

Yeah, you and everyone else.

Look, can-can you bring my case up

to the parole board early?

Tell them I'm doing good time?

You're joking, right?

I just yanked you from First Saw.

I'm not gonna go lying

to the parole board for you.

Then-then then put me on more calls.

Fires they knock off extra

time off my sentence, right?

I'll-I'll do double time,

man, triple time.

Bode, that's not how it works.

You go to the calls

I tell you to go to. That's it.

Please.

My mom's sick.

I heard.

I'm sorry about that.

- But rules are rules.

- I mean, there's got

to be exceptions to be made,

right? Cle-Clearly?

Man, your entire existence at

Fire Camp is an exception, Bode.

And so far, all it's done

is bite me in the ass.

I'm focused now.

You answer to me,

but I answer to people, too.

People like your Uncle Luke,

who's starting to realize

that you staying after going

rogue doesn't quite add up.

But I-I know Uncle Luke

likes to stir the pot,

but he wouldn't rat

on a fellow firefighter.

Yeah, but your Uncle Luke

is also a PR guy

who knows all too well

that things aren't always

the way they're supposed to be. Hold up!

From here on out,

everything's by the book.

You understand that?

So stop buzzing around asking

for early release like

a quarterback on prom night.

I'm your boss. I'm not your buddy.

WOMAN: Help! Please! Help me!

Let's go!

EVE: Yo.

Would you look at this roast duck?

This is what Aydan does for fun.

My fridge is never empty.

I mean (LAUGHS)

I really like her, Jake.

(GRUNTS)

(GROANS) Damn it.

Yo, are you trying to fix

the engine or m*rder it?

Bode called me today.

Whoa. Why?

He called to tell me that he

and Gabriela are just friends.

What? Do you think he's trying

to make a move, or?

I don't know. I-I think he's trying

to get a rise out of me, though.

- Well, is it working?

- No.

I don't know.

You know, maybe

maybe he's making peace.

You know, we've changed since he's left,

and maybe he did, too.

Look, I'm sorry, but

- actions have consequences.

- Mm-hmm.

And ever since he's been here

he punched me,

- I let that slide.

- Right.

He calls my girl, I move on.

But then he calls me

and rubs it in face?

I can't let that slide, Eve.

And you know it.

- We're following your voice!

- WOMAN: Help!

Keep yelling! Cal Fire's coming to you!

- Here.

- WOMAN: I'm slipping!

Oh, my God!

Help! I'm slipping!

All right, I'm gonna

reach over. You grab my legs.

- You ready?

- All right. Yeah.

(GRUNTS) I got you!

We got you! I got you!

There you go.

(MANNY GRUNTS)

I tried to hold on to her.

I really tried.

Wait, wait, wait. Who?

Who'd you try to hold on to?

- (CRYING): Kirsten.

- Kirsten. Where's Kirsten?

- (CRYING): There.

- Okay.

Please, help her.

Hey, Cap?

Greencrest, Three Rock Crew Four.

We got a hiker over the edge

about three miles south

of Devil's Slide Trailhead.

Requesting a helitack for

hoist rescue, two engine crews,

and a code three ambulance.

- You keep your eyes on her.

- Yeah.



(SIREN WAILING)

(GARBLED RADIO TRANSMISSION)

Okay, I need the patient's

status and a couple of your guys

to clear space for helitack to land.

Already on it. I need

to coordinate with the chief.

Vince is out today.

Yeah, I'm stepping up on his behalf,

so it's me that you'll be

coordinating with.

Wow. Okay.

Some pretty big shoes to fill.

He can handle it.

Patient one, Amber, is stable.

Helitack is about five minutes

out for patient two rescue.

Her name's Kirsten.

Her friend said that she fell

off the cliff trying to take a selfie.

- Geez. All that for a picture?

- Yeah, right? Kids.

Okay, I'll oversee

the hoist rescue from here.

Gabriela, we'll need

the medical bag and gloves.

On it. Eve,

use the sewer cam to check

on the patient down there.

If anything shows that can

that she is still alive,

- I want to know.

- You got it.

Manny, I'll take over

the patient from here.

Copy.

Hey, Bode, I guess

Crawford's got this one.

Why don't you cut some brush

with the guys?

For real?

You heard your captain.

You should get back with your crew.

(SOFT BUZZING)

(SIGHS) What's my blood pressure?

Don't worry about it.

Come on. I want the number.

150/95.

Oh, come on.

That is the blood pressure

of a sedentary,

out-of-shape, Wall Street broker.

Give me that. You did it wrong.

Don't just stand there staring at me.

You're gonna make me nervous.

(SOFT BUZZING)

Right. It's my fault

you have high blood pressure.

Not the kidney disease

or the dialysis tube

sticking out of your stomach.

Or the fact that you just had

to tell your incarcerated son

that you're sick.

(WHOOSHING)

How do you think he took it, by the way?

- You heard him, didn't you?

- Yeah.

But we both know Bode.

He-he can seem fine, and then

He is fine. He's really strong.

He can take it.

And so can I. Honestly, babe,

you should head back to work.

I'm just gonna be sitting here

for the next four hours.

Um, no, that's not happening.

I'm your designated care person,

and as such,

I am supposed to take your vitals,

and, yeah, do whatever they said.

Better make sure that

you're tolerating treatment.

Sorry. I'm not tolerating it

very well, am I?

I think you're doing great.

Which is why I am not

going back to work.

I keep getting texts

from all these people at work

asking why I took the day off

and if I'm okay.

Well, that's funny.

I took the day off, too,

and nobody's blowing up my phone.

(LAUGHS)

People care about you, Shar.

- You know that.

- No, they don't.

They care if my job's gonna

suddenly become available.

Who?

The original 120 people

I b*at out for it to begin with.

And then, if I'm honest,

your brother Luke.

I know, my brother's no saint, but he

He's not gonna take advantage

of you being sick, and

And as your designated

care person, I-I suggest

that you stop worrying about work.

Just focus on your health, please.

I'm never gonna stop worrying

about work.

That job is the only way

I can help Bode.

My number came out worse than yours.

Maybe it's the batteries.

(CLICKING)

Well, the good news is the

sprain doesn't look that bad.

(SIREN WAILING) What about Kirsten?

Hey, we're doing everything we can.

It's my fault she fell.

I lost my footing

with my arm around her.

I might've k*lled my best friend.

Hey, hey, listen. Have some faith.

I got my best friend's eyes

on your best friend.

Come on.

I see movement!

- She's alive!

- Well, look at that, okay?

Now, you're gonna go

to the hospital for this wrist

and leave the worrying to us, okay?

No. It's my fault she fell.

I'm not leaving her.

It's just a sprain, I can suck it up.

Okay, but sit tight.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Eve, talk to me. What do you see?

Semiconscious with an obvious

fracture to the left leg.

- We need that copter.

- Yeah, and fast.

Weather report says that rain

will be here within the hour

and so will the tide.

And it'll obstruct visibility,

and it could make flying

to the cliff tricky.

Well, we better b*at the rain.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, you okay?

Hey.

I've had better days.

You want to talk about it?

I don't think Jake'd be too

happy if he saw us talking.

What's up? You seem off.

(SIGHS)

- Maybe we can talk later.

- JAKE: Gabriela?

You're riding with Eve.

Go get into a harness.

Chopper's about to leave.

Me? But probies never ride

with the helitack crew.

Well, shadowing Eve

is your best way of learning.

She's experienced. Now go.

You're supposed to be

clearing my landing zone,

not distracting my crew.

And I don't think Captain Perez

would appreciate that, either.

Hey, man, look, she approached me.

It is never your fault, is it?

Look, I got bigger things to worry about

right now than fighting with you.

Funny. It didn't seem like that

this morning.

That's because, this morning,

I didn't know that my mom was sick.

Hey, yo. (CLEARS THROAT)

Copter's one minute away.

What-what do you mean, your mom's sick?

Bode, is Sharon all right?

Her kidneys are failing.

It sounds pretty serious.

I figured that you two knew.

Well, we didn't.

Bode, I'm so sorry.

Thanks.

Me, too.

(HELICOPTER WHIRRING)

(CLEARS THROAT) Okay.

Chopper's here. Let's move.

(GARBLED RADIO TRANSMISSION)

Everyone tagged in?

A-firm. Everyone tagged in?

- You ready?

- I'm ready. You ready?

Rescuer ready!

Permission to open door.

GABRIELA: Doors opening.

(GROANING)

Go!

(WHIRRING)

Rescuer 25 feet from copter!

40 feet from copter.

Easy.

Hold your forward.

Copy.

It's a damn wind tunnel out here!

Whoa. Whoa!

(GROANING)

Eve! You okay?

The cable the cables

are tangled in the rocks.

They're out of my reach. I-I-I'm stuck.

What do we do?!

The copter

is pulling the line too tight.

(PANTING) I need you to cut me loose.

Copy.

What? We do that, and she falls!

Y'all can't hover forever.

My best choice is to fall.

Cut me loose!

PILOT: Go on. You got to cut her now.

You need to cut.

Yes, sir.

What if we hurt Eve?

We don't get to choose our lessons,

and this is a tough one.

We're choosing the lesser of two evils.

If something happens to her, it's on us.

No, it's on me.

You're just following orders,

but the tail rotor is too close

to the cliff, so you need to cut now!

PILOT: Cut it now. I can't

hold this position much longer.

Cut! Cut! Cut!

(YELLS)

(GROANING)

Eve, did you make the drop okay?

Do you copy, Eve?!

Jake, I'm not hearing her.

Oh.



I don't see Eve.

Negative on visuals from here.

Manny, snake a camera down there.

Copy that.

GABRIELA: Wait! I see her now!

Eve, I see you. Can you hear me?

She's not responding.

Possible head injury.

Okay, copy. Copter, return

back to the landing zone.

Hey, wh-wha-what

are you doing about Eve?

- You can't just leave her down there.

- Bode, I'm not like you.

I don't bail on people.

Come on, guys!

We have a firefighter down there,

and quite possibly a very shaken probie

who had to cut her loose.

Now, Jake, you called me out

on my probie treatment

on our last fire, and you were right.

So we need to take a breath.

We need to adjust, and we need

to find our plan B for Eve.

- You're right.

- Yes, Cap.

(GROANING)

(GROANING)

(PANTING)

(GRUNTS)

Helitack, Rescuer One.

I've dislocated my shoulder,

but operational.

Going to make contact

with the patient. Over.

Helitack, do you copy?!

(PANTING)

(GRUNTING)

(GROANS)

(GROANING)

JAKE: It's time for a manual approach.

A belay system is our best option.

We'll anchor to the engine

and use this stump as safety.

MANNY: And it's the quickest

with that tide moving in fast.

- Are you okay?

- GABRIELA: Yeah.

Just, the wind up there was unreal.

All right, all right, look,

I'm gonna need your crew

to work the system.

- Absolutely. You got it.

- I'll be on it, too.

Okay, Manny,

we're gonna need your expertise

up here as the edge person.

Okay. I'm gonna need a rescue partner.

Normally, I would take Eve.

We rock-climbed here growing up.

We all did, man You, me, Eve, Riley.

We must have scaled this thing

a million times.

- Now, Bode

- No. No, no, Bode's right.

Okay, listen, we'll go down

together. Harness up.

No. Uh-uh. Uh-uh. You two are

a powder keg about to blow.

- The answer's "no," Jake.

- No. Manny, listen to me.

Listen, Manny, Manny, look,

we got two people down there

that we have to save, and no time.

Uh, we have a shorthand, Cap.

We can do this.

And you really want to take this risk?

Anybody else, and it would be a risk.

Listen, Bode is our best option.

The lesser of two evils.

Man, you do everything

that he tells you to do.

Everything. No defiance.

You check your personal crap

before you put their lives

into your hands. You understood me?

Yes, Cap.

Okay. Good. Let's go.

- We got lives to save, people!

- And hey!

Be safe!

Perez, you're with me.

Three Rock!

(GRUNTS)

(GROANING)

Oh, no.

Kirsten!

The tide's too close already.

(GROANING)

(GROANS)

All right. (GROANS)

(SOFTLY): All right.

Equal and reactive.

Kirsten, can you hear me?

My name is Eve. I'm a firefighter.

I'm here to help you, okay?

(GRUNTS)

Open femur fracture.

Not good. All right.

Kirsten, can you hear me?

Kirsten, you're waking up. Good.

But I need you to stay still

so you don't hurt yourself

any more, okay?

(PANTING) (GROANING)

What? No, no, no, no.

Easy, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.

Where am I?

No, you just you had a bad fall.

- Deep breaths.

- (LOUD, SHALLOW BREATHING)

- Is that my bone?!

- Kirsten, stay with me.

(YELLING) You're okay. You're sa

Aah! Come on, Jake! Hurry!

- Steady. Steady.

- (THUNDER RUMBLING)

- This is a good pace.

- MANNY: Copy. We'll maintain speed.

All right, we got 20 minutes

before downpour.

How you doing?

A little rusty, but

muscle memory's still there.

Okay.

(GRUNTS)

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, oh.

- All right, stop. All stop.

- Stop, stop, stop.

I think I'm stuck.

Yeah, my line's snagged.

Hey, up on Bode.

MANNY: Up on Bode.

Okay, stop on Bode.

MANNY: Stop on Bode.

(GRUNTS) Got it.

- Good?

- I'm good.

Okay. Down on Bode.

MANNY: Down on Bode.

All right.

Let's go. Stop on Bode.

MANNY: Stop on Bode.

You good?

Little less rusty than I thought.

All right, all good. Lower on both.

MANNY: Lower on both. Okay, keep going.

Gentlemen, we defect to this line.

Slow and steady.

That's our ticket, all right?

Mechanical advantage.

It's a beautiful thing.

That's what's gonna help us lift

a few hundred pounds up a cliff.

Don't fight the line, firefighter.

GABRIELA: You want to show me how?

Flip your wrist. Back side in.

Pull it back, right in the

groove. Watch your thumb.

Let the system help you.

How's it feel?

Way better.

Way better?

(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS QUIETLY)

Here you go, Chief.

LUKE: Well, well, well. I was

wondering if I was ever gonna

see my big brother around town.

Um, yeah, here I am.

You look like crap. You sleeping enough?

Well, I was till I heard

you were in town.

Hey, funny guy. Sit down.

Join me for lunch.

No. Uh, just getting some takeout.

What? The firehouse

doesn't serve lunch anymore?

(SIGHS) Day off.

Day off? You never take a day off.

Well, you never seem to work,

so that evens out, doesn't it?

Well, it's funny

you should mention that,

'cause I was thinking about

taking a job here in town.

- Really?

- Mm-hmm.

Who's hiring?

Well, word on the street is

that they're looking

for someone to fill in

for division chief.

Which is strange because

Sharon is division chief.

Last time I saw her, she didn't

mention anything about stepping down.

Yeah, she's not.

What's the deal, Vince?

You finally taking her on that vacation?

Luke, stay out of this, all right?

Stay out of what? Oh. Oh,

look at that. Perfect timing.

If you don't want to tell me

what's going on, I'll just ask her.

What are you doing here?

I told you I was going to get food.

I'm here for him.

- What's up, Shar?

- You tell me.

(CHUCKLES) Uh, I don't

know. These prices.

I guess inflation is hitting everybody.

Hey, hey!

- Don't be such a smart-ass. Tell him.

- VINCE: Hey

Tell Vince what you did

to make the board put me

on a leave of absence.

Um, Sharon, blood pressure

Screw my blood pressure! I just

got an email from the board

temporarily asking me to step down.

He's the only one who knew.

He saw me after my doctor's appointment.

(GROANS SOFTLY)

What are you doing?

Oh, good. You're awake again.

(SIGHS) I'm looking for a pulse.

Wouldn't I be dead otherwise?

Your distal pulse.

Just want to make sure

you didn't nick an artery.

(GROANING)

Okay. I got a pulse. (GROANS)

But I need to apply a tourniquet.

(PANTING) (GROANS)

Wait. Wait. With with one arm?

(PANTING)

Yeah. I'm doing the best I can do.

I'm a little

type-A. I-I like things

to be done properly,

especially if you ask Amber.

How is she?

She's worried about you.

(PANTING)

(GROANS) Stopping here was her idea.

I was so annoyed

about losing travel time,

I didn't even enjoy the view.

Like I said, type-A, I like a plan.

(PANTING) I-I mean,

look what happens when

you suddenly change the plan.

I hate to say this, but I have

to change the plan on you.

And normally, I would apply

a tourniquet.

Yes, please.

But because I only have one arm,

and I'm alone, I need your help.

- I'm-I'm no paramedic! I

- No, no, no.

I'm-I'm Listen, I'm-I'm a math major.

I have, like, literally

no relevant skills here.

All I need you to do is

to hold it in place.

And I'm sorry, but it's gonna hurt.

(WHIMPERS, GROANS)

Come on, come on, let's go.

There you go. Come on, come on, come on.

Just hold it right here. (GROANING)

There you go. There you go. (GROANING)

Okay, all right, eyes to the sky.

It's a beautiful day! Enjoy it!

Like you wish you did earlier, okay?

(YELLING)

(CRYING)

I am the reason

you still come to Thanksgiving.

I make your mother's mashed

potatoes the way you like them,

not the way my husband likes them,

because we are a family

before co-workers.

So I thought never.

Never did I think you would stoop so low

just to climb the Cal Fire ladder.

Wh-Wh Where are you going?

I'm going to my office

so everyone knows I'm fine.

No, you're not.

You told Bode to keep his cool, right?

I'm asking you to do the same thing.

You had dialysis today, okay?

You need to take it easy.

I'm gonna take you home.

Sharon.

Don't! I'm not going home.

(GROANING)

(GRUNTING)

Eve, talk to me.

(GRUNTING) All right. Ah!

(GROANING)

Have a patient with

an open femur fracture,

I've dislocated my shoulder Bode?

What? You guys came down

the cliff together?

You applied a tourniquet with one arm?

Yeah. Well, Kirsten assisted.

I needed some help.

Yeah, well, so did I.

All right, let's hurry up.

High tide is coming any minute.

All right, you take her up

and then come back down for me.

Yeah, that's a no-go.

Between the tide, the rain

And with your arm, if we don't make it

back in time, you'll drown.

EVE: Well, even if we do this,

hauling the four of us is too heavy.

- Not if we share the load.

- Exactly.

Look, between the three of us,

we can split the weight

and make it up all at once, together.

Y'all are crazy.

Took you this long to realize that?

Okay, we're almost there.

(KIRSTEN GROANING)

Bode, get ready. (LABORED BREATHING)

On three.

One, two, three.

(GROANS)

(GRUNTING) I got her.

Okay. (GRUNTS)

Let's move.

MANNY: Keep pulling, keep pulling!

Come on, guys, pull together as a team.

That's it.

Slow and steady, slow and steady.

(EVE GRUNTING)

Hey, hey, hang on, Eve.

You're doing great. We're almost there.

We're so close.

All right, I see them.

Keep hauling.

We're almost out of the woods.

- Why aren't we moving?

- The line's held up.

(WEAKLY): Where are we?

Manny, we're stalled.

Copy that, might be a system's fail.

- Stand by.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

I have the spins.

Are-are we falling?

No, eyes to the sky.

We've got you, Kirsten.

JAKE: Okay, listen, Manny,

we got a critical patient.

Where are we with the system failure?

The anchor is giving in!

We lose those anchor points,

we lose them.

Hold the line!

MANNY: Go to the anchor point

and make sure the Prusik is secure.

Hurry!

The Prusik is slipping!

We're losing traction.

Gabriela, you need to bridge that line

fast or the system could fail.

I'm gonna double up on

the Prusik to stop the slipping.

Okay, pull! Go, go, go!

All right, boys, we're back in business!

Gabriela, help me work the edge.

Clip me in so I can pull them up.

GABRIELA: Done, you're

good to approach the edge.

Good, we've almost got them.



(GRUNTS) Good job, Kirsten.

(GRUNTING) Stay with us, all right?

We're almost there.

I got you.

(GROANS)

MANNY: You all right there, Eve?

Not too good.

MANNY: On my three, you ready?

One, two, three.

(KIRSTEN PANTING)

Kirsten!

Are you okay? (SOBBING)

I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to.

It's not your fault.

It's not your fault.

(EVE CHUCKLING)

I can't believe

we used to do that for fun.

(ALL LAUGHING)

That was a long time ago.

Yeah. But I made it to the top first,

so glad to see

some things haven't changed.

You didn't always win.

No. But most of the time.

Boys, boys. Nobody cares.

All right?

This kind of feels like old times.

MANNY: Bode.

Let's load up.

(GROANS)

And now it's over.

(EXHALES SOFTLY)

You know what I liked

most about you diving?

Let's not do this again, Dad, please.

That look on your face

every time you dove.

I saw that same look today

when you reinforced that anchor point.

It's good thinking.

Mm, for a probie. (CHUCKLES)

Is this Captain Perez

paying me a compliment

or my dad giving me his blessing?

As a dad,

my daughter's dreams are my dreams.

(KISSES)

And I am so proud of you, mija.



I know diving was expensive.

And you sacrificed a lot

so that I could do it.

And (SNIFFLES)

instead of vacations,

and new cars and houses,

we had diving.

And it was the best money I ever spent.

And I quit.

No.

You're a professional diver

who completed her career.

And now you have a new dream.

A dream that makes you happy.

And only an idiot wouldn't want

that for his daughter.

It just took me a little

while to catch up.

That's all.

Now get back to work. (CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS)



(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING QUIETLY)

Hey, can I have a beer, please?

- BARTENDER: You got it.

- Hey, watch this,

my baby brother's

about to buy me a drink.

Put his drinks on my tab.

- Yes, sir.

- Ta-da.

Well, I know for a fact

that you weren't the one

who ratted Sharon out.

Why didn't you tell her that?

I saw the look on your face.

I saw you panic.

I figured it was you who benched her

when her body needed a rest.

I also figured that you did

what you do for family.

You take care of them.

You covered for me?

Why?

Recovery is a full-time job.

She's gonna need you Her husband

Hell of a lot more than

she's gonna need me.

(SCOFFS)

Sorry.

You've never stepped up before.

So, why now?

- What's in it for you?

- Stepping up is what we do for family.

Forget it, never mind.

Hey, all right. I'm sorry.

It was a nice thing you did.

And you better drink up

'cause this is a onetime offer.

Well, then I better

order something top-shelf.

Better not.

(CHUCKLING)

AUTOMATED VOICE: To accept, press 1.

(PHONE BEEPS)

Bode, I just heard about your mom.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

How are you feeling?

Like an 18-wheeler ran me over.

(SIGHS) How is your mom doing?

I don't know.

It's hard to know

when I'm stuck in here.

I

I got to get out and go home.

I need to parole.

You will.

Not if I mess up.

You won't. You'll work the program.

One call at a time.

It was hard to play nice

today, on the call.

And do the right thing with Jake.

But you did it.

Yeah, but I was terrified

the whole time of messing up,

of adding to my time

and breaking my mom's heart.

I can hear the organ's song ♪

I can't do that.

Hey, I'm here.

If you need to talk,

I'm off tonight, I can meet you.

Please.

Don't do that.

Oh. I

I thought we were going to meet

Yeah, we were. But that was before.

Before you knew your mom was sick?

BODE: Yeah.

Yeah, and before I saw today

how much it bothers Jake

to see us talking. It's over the line.

You and me while you're with Jake
