[bunniefuu]

All right, Three Rock,
tell me what you see.

I see fuel.

It's a south-facing slope;
that means it's dry.

MANNY: And you, Rohan?

There's snow on the ground,
so no fire danger.

Not true, Rohan. Given
the right wind conditions,

this hillside's a wildfire
waiting to happen.

Cap, you ruin nature hikes for us.

Not a nature hike, Bode,
it's a training hike,

and I need you to see all the risks.

That way, you can be prepared for 'em.

FREDDY: Tell you what I don't see.
Access roads for easy evacuation.

That's my boy Freddy... always
looking for an escape route.

(FAKE LAUGHS)

Go ahead and laugh, but Cap taught me...

You walk into a fire,
you better have a way out.

MANNY: Couldn't have
said it better myself, Goat.

(FREDDY CHUCKLES)

(AIRPLANE WHIRRING)

MANNY: All right, guys, let's take five.

"Marry me"?

- Excuse me?
- FREDDY: (LAUGHS) I like you, sir,

but I'm talking about the plane.

S...

Sam? Sarah?

What if Sam or Sarah
doesn't want to get married?

Oh, that's your problem
with Cap's daughter, you know.

Fear of rejection.

I got bigger things on
my mind right now, Freddy.

Gah, gah, gah, gah. Nothing
bigger than love, brother.

Gabriela doesn't want
to have anything to do with me.

'Cause you almost b*at up
that guy last week?

Yeah.

It freaked her out.

So, apologize.

Tell her you're changing.

Flutter those big baby blues.

What if she's right, though?

You know, she's probably
better off without me.

You run into fires like a superhero,

but you're gonna run away from this?

(PLANE WHIRRING LOUDLY)

Whoa. Whoa, whoa,
what the hell?! Hey! Hey!

(INDISTINCT, OVERLAPPING SHOUTING)

Green Crest, Three Rock Crew
Four. We got a new incident.

BODE: Whoa, I hope he has a parachute.

MANNY: Come on, guys.
Let's go find that plane.

Wow, Collin. You've had a lot
of jobs over the years.

Yeah. Uh, um, I spent most
of my twenties rebelling

against expectations.

Uh, my dad worked for Cal Fire,

so, kind of grew up in his shadow.

Oh, I met your dad a couple times.

Solid as they come.

That's what I'm told.

All right, come on.
Let me show you around.

My son, Bode, he...

he resisted the calling
for a long time, too,

but he's a natural. It's in his blood.

Does he work here, too?

No. He works across town at Three Rock.

Three Rock?

Wait, isn't that a...
a prison firefighting camp?

Yeah.

Is he a captain?

No, he's an inmate.

BODE: Hey! I see the pilot!

MANNY: Medevac's on the way, sir.

Were there any more passengers?

(GROANING) MANNY: Easy!

Try and stay still.

No. Just me. (GROANS)

MANNY: All right,
we're gonna get you down.

I need you to establish a position above

so we can lower him down, all right?

Hey, Cap, I-I can free-climb it.
Nah, Rohan's a doctor.

He needs to be able to check his
vitals before we bring him down.

You and Freddy head down the ridge and

see if you can spot
the wreckage, all right? Go.

Copy that, Cap.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Did you know that Rohan was a doctor?

I thought he was in for dealing dr*gs.

Oh. He was dealing dr*gs.

Hey, Shar. What...

What-what are you doing here?

Well, actually,
it's Division Chief Leone.

Oh. Somebody got cleared
to come back to work.

Yeah. (LAUGHS)

The dialysis is working.

And once she gets her new
kidney, she'll be unstoppable.

Oh, when are you getting the transplant?

Okay. I don't want to talk
about my kidneys anymore,

except to say "thank you."

I know most of you gave blood

to see if you were compatible
to donate, and I don't want

to know if you're a match... yet.

Uh, that way, if I see
you eating junk food

and possibly destroying
my kidney, I won't be mad.

Well, I'm not a match, so...

Oh! I don't want to know. (LAUGHTER)

Thank you.
Please resume eating your donut.

Vince, you gonna introduce
me to your new probie?

Uh, oh. Um...

I... Uh, yeah. Hi. Nice to meet you all.

Uh, my name's Collin O'Reilly.

SHARON: Any relation to Kirk O'Reilly?

GABRIELA: Who's Kirk O'Reilly?

Well, he's dead now,
but Cal Fire legend.

I mean, real badass.

Which makes Collin a nugget.

What's a nugget?

You know what a nugget is.

No, I don't.

You're a nugget, 'cause
your dad is head of Three Rock.

EVE: And anyone's parent

who's a part of Cal Fire is a nugget.

This is how you talk about us?

I mean, not to your face, but, yeah.

(LAUGHTER) Thanks.

(TIRES SQUEALING)

I'm having a baby.

Um... now? (WHIMPERING)

I'm not from here.

Um, contractions started
about miles ago,

and my water broke about ten
miles ago, and now I feel like...

- I feel like I have to push.
- Okay, listen.

- We can get you to the hospital, okay?
- Okay.

- Can you move?
- Here comes another contraction.

(GROANING, PANTING)

WOMAN: This baby's coming now.

There's no time for the hospital.

Please tell me I can do this

- because I'm scared to death.
- Just breathe.

- And, oh, here it comes.
- All right, breathe.

- Breathe.
- JAKE: Vince, Sharon,

we need you in the bay!

Oh.

All right, guys, glove up.

She's right. There's
no time for the hospital.

Slowly. Slowly. Good, good, good.

Easy! Easy! That's it.

SHARON: That's it.

That's it. Chin up. That's good.

Here it comes! Here it

(LAUGHING)

Oh, good job, Mama. (LAUGHS)

(LAUGHING): Oh.

Is there someone that
we can call for you?

Yeah, call my boyfriend.

He's an inmate at Three Rock.

Okay. (BABY CRYING)

Yes. We're not here to talk about me.

Whatever you heard,

I didn't do it, and neither did Bode.

I'm glad to hear that, 'cause I
heard you got your girlfriend pregnant

in the boom-boom room
in Lancaster eight months ago.

Oh, yeah, I did do that. (LAUGHS)

Wait. How would you know?

I just helped deliver your baby.

- What?
- Yeah.

Cookie drove up here
for visiting day tomorrow,

and she went into labor halfway
between L.A. and Edgewater.

No. No, no, no.

They wouldn't send the chief

Excuse me, sir.

Hate to tell you this,
but we're evacuating the hillside.

Fire won't make it up here.

It very well could.

It won't.

I've been here years, been
evacuated six or eight times.

It hasn't b*rned down yet.

Chief Leone. Vince.

Hey, Chief. Harlan Denbo.

Well, Harlan, we're just
up here doing our job.

Sure would make it easier if you'd
just comply with the evacuation.

How about doing your job
by helping me defend my house?

Our main priority is to protect lives.

Is there anybody else in the house

who might want to make it to safety?

Wife? Kids? Grandkids?

Just me.

Do you have someplace to go
if the fire does get here?

I'll leave when I see flames.

(CLEARS THROAT)

He doesn't see flames.

Fire's not real to him yet.

Well, I guess we got
to make it real for him.

Yeah. Let's go ahead
and try dental records, I guess.

Which one of you feels scariest today?

- Me.
- Me.

Yeah, both of you, go.

Hi. We were, uh, hoping to come
in and talk to you for a minute?

You can't come in,

- but go ahead and talk. I'm on hold.
- Well, we were

wondering if you have any copies
of your dental records.

EVE: In case things get
out of hand and we have

- to identify your body.
- You know, you could be

making sure that the fire gets put out.

Take your big old hoses
and blast that thing down to nothing.

Instead, you're up here wasting time
trying to scare an old man?

MAN (ON PHONE):
How do you spell your name?

- Sir, we...
- Denbo.

- D-E-N-B-O.
- Okay, let me put you on a brief hold.

No. No, damn it,
don't put me on hold again.

It will be very brief, I promise.

(EASY LISTENING MUSIC PLAYS OVER PHONE)

Dr. Carter at Edgewater Dental

Hey. Cookie had a baby for real?

As real as they come.

(LAUGHS) So you're just...
you're back to work now?

Yeah, and I'm feeling really good

except for this fire
tearing up the mountainside.

I got to go down.

Mom?

I'm a match.

I-I'm a match to donate my kidney.

I just found out.

You got tested? They let you give blood?

Yeah, yeah. I mean,
I still got a bunch of tests

and hoops to jump through, but...

That's a really risky surgery.

I don't care.

No! No, you have to care!

You know, I held that little baby today,

and I remembered holding you
and wanting to keep you safe.

That was my job. That was my whole job.

And I haven't done it
very well, but, no,

I'm not doing this.
I am not taking your kidney.

GABRIELA: Do you know what
"spinning the weather" means?

COLLIN: Spinning the
weather. No. No, I have no idea.

But I'm gonna guess it
involves spinning and weather.

MANNY: Gentlemen, watch your footing!

Have each other's back
and keep your head on a swivel.

All the tools in this kit
will give us an accurate reading

on, uh, temperature, dew point,

humidity, wind speed, wind directions.

We have a wet bulb and dry bulb. Oh.

We're gonna wet it. Uh-huh. This one.

And... spin it.

(SAW BUZZING IN DISTANCE)

Okay. Mm-hmm.

So how long you been with Cal Fire?

Couple months.

What? That's it?

Thought you'd been here
for, like, years.

You'll get there.

Spin it parallel to the ground.

Oh.

Mm-hmm.

Hey, which one's the chief's kid?

The one with the chainsaw.

COLLIN: What'd he do to get locked up?

- Does it matter?
- No.

No. I'm sorry.

You're right. It's none of my business.

My dad was an inmate.

And now he's captain of Three Rock.

People can change.

Wait. That guy's your dad?

- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, so you're a nugget, too, huh?

Collin, don't step on that rock.

Seriously, don't! Oh, no.

Run!

MANNY: Heads up! Rock!

Rock! Freddy!

We have to tell him.
You're gonna get in trouble.

I am the most senior firefighter here,

- okay?
- But it was me.

Collin, everyone's waiting to
see what kind of nugget you are.

So just shut up and
let me do the talking.

Perez. What the hell happened up here?

I'm so sorry, Chief.
I thought it was stable.

It was you?

Yes, sir.

Well, I shouldn't have to remind you

there's lives on the line down below.

Understood. It won't happen again.

Yeah, it better not.

(EXHALES) Thanks for covering.

MANNY: Chief.

You put two inexperienced people
at the look-out?

Yes, I did. Falling rocks
are part of the job,

so maybe you should train
your guys to look out for 'em.

Stop it. No one d*ed.

Although someone might

if we don't get Mr. Denbo
off the mountain.

He's not going anywhere
till he sees flames.

Did you at least try dental records?

Yes, I tried dental records.
Look, that's an old song.

- Everybody up here knows it.
- SHARON: Okay.

Well, since he knows the
risk, what do you think?

Do we leave him up there?

I don't like leaving him up there, no.

Okay. Then have your guys
prep the house.

My guys can prep faster than your guys.

- Have you seen my guys work?
- I have,

and I take my crew
over your crew anytime.

Manny! Vince! You are on the same team.

And I am gonna pull Manny's guys
off the hillside

to do a retardant drop, so
you can work together, nicely.

Yes, ma'am.

What is up with him?

I don't know.
One of his guys almost d*ed,

and he lost his house
due to a gambling addiction?

Not having a good week.

Well, my son almost d*ed,
my wife's got a bum kidney,

Bode matched.

He tested?

And he's a match.

Well, great... Okay, that's great.

Yes, we will. Don't die up there.

I don't die. Neither do you.

Well, put your shroud

Again: dead daddy.

I'm not gonna let you die, Freddy.

Got your escape routes
already covered, all right?

Hey, why didn't you
tell me about Cookie?

I didn't want to jinx things.

I am, too. Cookie's my rock.

She's getting me through this.

around this house, fellas.

EVE: So, I overhead
Sharon and Vince talking.

I think Bode's a match.

JAKE: Well, you didn't match.

Were you relieved or disappointed?

Little bit of both. You tested, right?

Yeah. I didn't match.

- Thank God.
- Well, why "Thank God"?

You saving Sharon's life?
That makes you the hero.

And then I'm resigned to living
in your shadow the rest of my life.

Yeah, well, I hate to break it to you,

but you're already in my shadow.

(SNORTS) You wish. (LAUGHS)

Got jokes today.

Uh, hey.

Look at that little nugget
over there sucking up to Vince.

- Yeah, no.

Hey, Freddy, sorry
about the rock shower.

Uh, my man Bode saved my life.

Well, I'm glad you're good.

You glad he's doing good, too?

- Freddy.
- What?

FREDDY: Two of you
working alongside one another.

Got an opportunity
to clear the air. Let's go.

There's no air to clear.

Yeah, we're good, Freddy.

FREDDY: Oh, yeah? 'Cause rumor has it

you think my man here is unsalvageable,

he's a flea market find.

All he needs is a little spit polish.

Hey, whoa, whoa, back off, man.

- You back off.
- Oh, oh, hey, hey, hey.

We're on your side, bro.

Well, then, get to work.

Ooh.

I'm risking my life for this fool?

Freddy, just calm down, all right?

Just chill out, think about the baby.

Oh, my God. Freddy, your baby.

Freddy? Hey.

What are you doing?

- I'm going to see my kid.
- And then what?

What happens after you see the baby?

They're gonna come looking for you.

I want to be a dad to my kid,
and I can't!

You can't understand that,
Bode. None of you can!

I used to wish that my dad
would escape and come get me

and that we'd be on the run.

I'd dream of it.

But that was a child's dream,
and now that I'm grown up,

I'm glad my dad did his time right.

I just want to see my baby.

I need to see my baby.

Hey, you-you leave here,

Like Cap says,
you better have a way out.

You're gonna see your kid.

you can tell her about today

and about how you overcame this
urge to do something impulsive.

How you changed and-and grew.

And she's gonna be
in awe of you, like I am.

Thanks, bro.

VINCE: You did the right thing.

(HARLAN COUGHING)

(COUGHING) MANNY: Look!

Harlan? Harlan!

Harlan! Come on, let's get him up.

(COUGHING)

We got you. (GROANS)

Thank you. Thank you.

(COUGHING)

SHARON: We'll probably do
one more water drop

before the tankers head back to base,

but it looks like the fire stopped
on the top of the ridge.

But most importantly,

everybody came off
that mountain alive today.

And seeing you all here covered in pink

makes it really hit home

that you are one crew.

You wear different uniforms,

you have different
skills, different tools,

different leaders,
but you fight the same fight.

So thank you.

And before we head home, where's Freddy?

Congratulations from
everyone at Cal Fire.

This is one hell of
a gender reveal party.

(LAUGHTER)

(WHISTLING) Congrats, Freddy!

Attaboy, Freddy.

(SHARON LAUGHS) Hey, Papa Freddy!

All right, let's go home
and get cleaned up.

Here me out, Gabs.

Bode ran into the fire. Impulsive.

But the dude also made the difficult

but mature decision
to save himself and run out.

That's progress. Am I right?

- Yeah, it is.
- So tell him.

Just do me this, okay?

Do me this solid.

- Okay.
- Yes! Ah!

Mm. Great work out there today, mija.

I'm proud of you.

Thanks, Dad.

You hear that word, Freddy?

"Dad"?

I hear it, sir. Still can't believe it.

Listen, I heard you got some
retardant in your eye today.

Yeah.

That stuff is nasty.

Maybe we should go get that checked out.

Nah, nah, I'm-I'm good.

No, I think maybe
we should go to the hospital.

No. Seriously, Cap,

- I'm-I'm-I'm b*at.
- Freddy,

you want to see your baby?

What?

GABRIELA: He needs you
to formally complain about your eyes.

Oh. Oh!

Yes, my eyes... They-they... they sting.

Bad. (LAUGHING)

I can't see nothing.
Y'all blurry... Chief.

(LAUGHTER)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, when I... when I first got here,

you know, I might have run
into that fire and not run out.

I just... I didn't...

I didn't really see my life
having much value.

But I'm starting to think that...

...maybe there is hope for me.

That is all I see.

Let me donate.

At-at-at least
let me move forward in the process.

I've-I've caused
so much pain to you guys.

Maybe this can even the score.

There is no score.

I can't...
I can't let you do that for me.

You'd be doing it for me.

(EXHALES LOUDLY)

If you let me save your life,
you'd be saving mine.

VINCE: Listen, Bode.

You know, I've struggled a lot with...

my, uh, disappointment
in some of your choices

over the past few years but, um,

I got to tell you, I...

I don't think
I've ever been more proud of you

than I am right now.

(WIND WHISTLING, INSECTS CHIRPING)

(STEAM HISSING)

(SIGHS)

I'm headed out to meet my kid.
Cap is taking me.

Oh, and while I'm gone,

if you can get me a new Nomex?
Mine is in the laundry.

Yeah, mine is, too. Just
get new ones tomorrow.

I think you should go tonight.

Why? What's your problem, bro?

I'm heading out now.

Uh, maybe you head over
in , just to be safe?

Trust your boy, Bode.

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

MANNY: She's checked
out of the hospital,

and Cookie's mom's on her way up
to take her back to L.A.

But the Leones

are gonna let them stay
for a few nights.

(BABY COOS)

C-Can-can I hold my daughter?

You better.

I'm gonna be in the other room.

You two have about an hour.

(BABY COOING)

Oh...

(BABY FUSSING) Oh.

Very nice of you guys to let her stay.

Oh. Yeah, well, we had the room.

Hey, listen, I want you both to know

that I signed up for overtime.

Gonna put together enough money
so I can get my own place.

Oh, don't worry about it.
There's no rush.

- Yeah.
- MANNY: Yeah, it's crazy.

I remember when Gabriela was
born, thinking,

"You know, this is it. Got a kid now.

"Got to get your act together." (LAUGHS)

And you did.

You just, um, had a setback.

Got to give yourself a break.

Yeah. Yeah. Right.

(BABY COOING)

(WHISTLING)

(CLUNKS)

(CHUFFS) Hey, bro. Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

You sure?

(SOFT CHUCKLE)

You know what I was
for Halloween when I was two?

A firefighter.

And when I was three?

A firefighter.

And four through ?

You were still trick-or-treating
when you were ?

(BOTH LAUGH SOFTLY)

Yeah. (LAUGHS)

Yeah, as a firefighter.

Eve, all I know how
to be is a firefighter.

Well, it's a good thing you're
a firefighter then. (LAUGHS)

I matched.

Hmm?

For Sharon, I matched.

Whoa. And, um...

I mean, I'm... I'm a firefighter

so I-I... I save people.

I don't hesitate.

But you're hesitating?

Bode ran into that house. I didn't.

Well, you didn't see Harlan go back in,

and if you did,
you would have saved him.

Would I?

Hi.

Hi.

I guess, uh... I guess Freddy
really wanted us to clear the air.

So do I.

I'm sorry I was...

I-I don't know...

Harsh, earlier.

You weren't.

And, you know, you're right.

I do need to do this for me.

So do I.

Look, I'm starting over, too.

And it's hard.

I want to impress Vince

and my dad, even this new probie.

I spend so much time
trying to impress everyone,

when I just need to impress me.

I need to stop looking
for outside approval

and just... find some...

self-worth inside.

You're trying to impress the new probie?

Are you jealous?

Yeah.

You shouldn't be.

Yeah, but, you know, he's free, and...

I'm not.

But you will be.
