06x17 - All These Things That I've Done

[bunniefuu]

Thanks for performing your civic duty.

So much better than jury duty.

No, Peggy, that's important,
too. Thank you for voting.

- I mean, please attend jury duty.
- Of course.

And what inspired this initiative?

Fire stations are a safe haven,

so I thought, why not designate one

as a voter drop-off
and information center?

That doesn't sound like the
work of someone who's resigning.

That's because I have no plans to do so.

Oh.

Let's get a few sh*ts of Herrera

in our new female firefighter turnouts.

Looks great. Feels great.

You have no idea how
much better these fit.

When are the rest of these coming in?

Yeah, we've been begging
for these for years. Why now?

I was saving up my discretionary
fund for a rainy day,

but now well, it's pouring.

Ooh! You look festive.

I'm off to another
organizer event for Robel.

Mm. Is Eli gonna be there?

You know, he's doing
voter drop-off all day,

so I don't think I'm gonna run into him.

So, how much of your commitment to Robel

is actually about getting back on

Eli's good side now that
he works for Robel, too?

We both know that Robel has to win.

That's why I'm speaking
at organizer events

all across town today to save the city

we both live in from Dixon.

I'm probably gonna lose my voice.

Oh.

Okay, did... did you
do any vocal warm-ups?

Does screaming into your
pillow all night count?

It doesn't. You're supposed to do the...

I'm not doing that.

Yeah. That's ridiculous.

- I'm leaving. Put that on.
- Oh, go get him.

- Go get your man, Travis Montgomery.
- Oh, that's not nice.

Well, Beckett just got back,

and he's already calling in sick.

Did he say when he was coming back?

No, with everything going on,
I-I didn't ask follow-up questions.

Well, he's not quitting, right?

- Why would he be quitting?
- I don't know.

A friend got in an accident at work.
It's probably my fault.

I will not be seeking my captaincy back.

I'd like you to have it.

Um, you know what, Theo?

I just got a text from
Diane asking where I am.

We were supposed to
do a peer review today,

- and I totally forgot.
- Oh, come on, Vic.

You know, I let you dedicate
time for your classes

- and the Crisis One expansion...
- Oh, you "let" me? Okay.

I'm gonna be late. I gotta go.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Aren't you on desk duty?
- Oh, I am.

I'm just helping out with Election Day.

Just like you, and those two out there,

- who are your responsibility today.
- They're volunteers,

and there are full-time
workers supervising.

How much trouble can they get into?

They just att*cked that
poor girl with stickers.

Only one sticker per voter.
That means and over.

We're nurturing the future
voters of this country.

- Sorry.
- Mm-hmm.

- You were saying?
- I love that.

Damn it!

Hey. Maya told me about
the Medal of Valor.

It's a huge deal,
right? Congratulations.

No, no, it's not a huge deal.
I just... Miranda saves lives every day.

You save lives every day.

My whole team saves lives every day.

I didn't save lives.
I saved one person, and barely.

So, no congratulations, then?

Well, what about you two? Hmm?

Uh, no. Living with Maya started to feel
just like living with my father,

and I've learned not
to come second to chaos.

Yeah, well, she seems
pretty peaceful to me.

And she's been seeing
Diane regularly, so...

Right. Doesn't mean that
I'm moving back in, though.

This is not a checklist,
and I'm not a reward.

I need to make sure her
priorities have evolved

and she won't hurt herself again if...

When things don't go the way she wants.

I need proof that she won't
go back to her old ways.

Well, she hasn't so far,

and that deserves some acknowledgment.

So does saving someone's life.

Marsha?

- What are you doing here?
- Oh, dropping off my ballot,

hoping to get my eyes
on my favorite boy.

Don't think I don't know you well
enough to distinguish your smiles.

That is a stomach-in-a-knot smile.

- Yes, it is.
- Mm-hmm.

I took half my shift off

so that I could go
meet a new bio sibling.

- Why are there so many?
- But things are going well with Brooke.

Yeah. Yeah, I mean, we have
trouble connecting sometimes.

I mean, she... she... she
has friends that she's known

- since first grade, and I am...
- Yeah.

You didn't get a chance to stick around

anywhere long enough to make any.

Look, Jack, I know it'd
be great to have a sibling

who understood the
stuff you went through,

but... this is the hand you were dealt.

This is your family.

You, Lila, and Cal,

y-you're the closest thing to
a real family I've ever had.

I never understood that stupid saying...

Um, "bl-blood's thicker than water".

You know, because
hanging out with Brooke,

it just makes me miss my
foster family that much more,

and then of course, Cal
doesn't even remember

who I am, so that's... That's nice.

Jack, you've had a
tough year, a tough life,

but, you know, give
your bio sibs a chance

to show you they can add to
the family you already have.

! Can I talk to you
all in the Beanery?

- Good luck tonight.
- Thank you.

So, what's the dress code for
the fireman's ball, anyway?

I hope it's just our Class A's.

Don't you wanna dress up?
Show off a bare shoulder?

Can I show off two bare shoulders?

Hey, Warren, congratulations
on the Medal of Valor.

- Yeah! Yeah!
- No, stop it.

Stop. Seriously, seriously, stop.

Stop.

Yes, congratulations, Warren.

So, , one of the
things on my to-do list

is to choose a permanent captain

now that Beckett has
officially stepped down.

So, before I make my decision,
if any remaining lieutenant

wants to be considered for
captain, please step forward.

Ruiz.

Herrera.

Sullivan.

Alright, well, I will take
you three into consideration,

and I will be making my
decision in the coming days.

Have a good shift.

Ruiz!

I want you to know that...
me stepping forward

wasn't anything personal.

Y-You've been k*lling it.

Yeah. It's all good. I expected you to.

So, we cool?

- Of course.
- Alright.

I mean, let's be real... It's
really between you and me.

No way would Chief Ross be bold
enough to promote Sullivan again.

Yeah.

But just so you know, I'm not
gonna just hand it over to you.

Well, I mean, it's no secret
that I want to be captain

more than anything,
but I'm gonna earn it.

Good.

'Cause I worked hard to repair
the mess that Beckett made,

a job you wouldn't even take.
So I'd say I deserve a chance.

Alright, well, l-l-let me

let me remind you that
I did my time, too,

cleaning up messes when I
was interim captain at .

Yeah, well, you did
more than clean up.

You wiped it out.

Ladder , Aid Car
requested to Homestead Road.

Beckett?

Beckett?

Oh, God. Beckett, are you here?

- Are you breaking into my house?
- Uh, no, I wasn't.

I wasn't not... breaking
into your house.

Um, I'm here to do a
peer-to-peer check-in.

- Do a what?
- Diane and I are implementing check-ins

with FD as a part of Crisis One.

So I'm just here to make sure

you're adjusting back to
everyday life, you know, after...

I'm fine.

- Thank you.
- So you're not sick, then?

You called in sick.

Yeah, well, I needed a day
to... to get things in order.

- Oh, okay. You moving?
- Uh, organizing.

Tell you what, the station
could use an air fryer.

- It's a good one.
- Oh.

You could probably bring that by
on your next shift, though, right?

You know, I'll just
bring this to the shelter.

- Mm.
- Thank you for checking in.

That was fun.

Well, um, I just want
you to know that I'm here

if you need any help navigating
this transition back...

I don't need help
navigating anything, Hughes.

- I'm good.
- Okay. Great.

I still, um... still gotta
do the assessment, though.

That's part of the check-in, so...

I just came back from
my break and the car

is just s-stuck in there.

Uh, can you shut it
down? Is it a*t*matic?

Dude, I don't... I don't
know. I just work here.

Is there a manual or
an on-site map anywhere?

Not that I know of. No.

Alright, Gibson, Bishop,
cut the utilities into the car wash.

Sullivan, Herrera, standby to extricate

- whoever is in that vehicle...
- Help, please!

But I want the power cut off
before anyone goes inside.

Uh, with all due respect, Captain,

those scrubbers could
lead to more injuries.

We should just go in and
make sure everyone is stable.

- No, not while it's on. Stand down.
- Help! Help!

Please! Please!

- No...
- Help!

- Ah, she's playing captain already.
- Damn it, Herrera.

Go with her.

Ah.

Hey. I'm Lieutenant Herrera.

That's Lieutenant Sullivan.
We're with Seattle Fire.

We're gonna get you out, okay?

I'm... I'm Matt. This is my wife, Laura.

- Are either of you hurt?
- Uh, baby, baby, are you alright?

Don't "baby" me. Of course I'm hurt.

You're cheating on me, and I still wa...

- Wa... want a divorce.
- I told you, I'm not cheating.

Her head is bleeding.
You have to help her.

Captain, we have two civilians,
one with significant head trauma.

We need spine boards and
gurneys for extrication.

Copy, Lieutenant, but like I said,

I'm not sending anyone in there
until the power is cut off.

- Hold off on extrication.
- Game on, Herrera.

Ruiz is already pulling rank.
What's your move?

Alright, the car's
pretty wedged in there.

Let's just get ahead and
get this rear window off

until they cut off the power.

You know, Ruiz prioritizes
the safety of his team

because he lost someone the
last time he was captain.

- You can't fault him for that.
- But we can.

Because you and I, we
see the whole picture.

If you think Chief Ross is gonna
make you captain, you're delusional.

Like I always say, a little
ruthlessness goes a long way.

Defying the captain like that?

Come on!

Ruthless?

I'm efficient, and,
most importantly, honest,

a quality you could work on.

I don't need tactics to prove
I'm worthy of being captain.

You and I both know you're
a wolf in sheep's clothing.

You know what they say... You
gotta dress for the job you want.

So be the wolf, or you'll
be the one getting eaten.

Do you feel like you have the tools
to adjust back to everyday life?

The union sent me plenty
of outpatient resources.

How often do you have negative

- thoughts about the job?
- All the time.

Did you memorize these questions
off a-a psych textbook, Hughes?

Oh, God, even if I did,
that doesn't make them

any less effective, Beckett.

Well, if you're gonna go off a
pamphlet, you might as well just

- hand me that instead.
- What's that?

What is that?

What is what?
That's not your business, Hughes.

- Just leave that stuff alone.
- This says " West Coast

Bowling Champions" on it.

- Wait a sec.
- Get out of my stuff.

There is a lot of
trophies in here, Beckett.

What is this?

Who are the Evergreen Strikers?

If I tell you, will you get
the hell out of my house?

The Evergreen Strikers is
what the team's called,

- or was called.
- Mm-hmm.

The team we formed at the
first station I ever joined.

Six-time regional champions.

- Nicknamed me the Kingpin.
- Okay, I have no idea what that means,

but I do know you cannot give this away.

You can't throw this out.
Do you call these guys?

Are these your... your friends?

You gonna get that team back together?

It would be a great idea, Hughes,

except half of them are already dead.

Thank you very much.

Will you just... Just get out, alright?

Please go.

Okay.

Okay. I mean, I-I could just call Diane

and have her finish the assessment.

I'm sure you'd love to
catch up with DeeDee.

- Okay, next question.
- Okay.

There's one for you over here.

Thank you for coming in, by the way.

Thanks for making a difference.

The city appreciates you.

Oh, man. Today's been so hectic
with all the Election Day events.

Yes, I know how hectic the
campaign schedule's been today,

because I work for
Robel now thanks to you.

- Can we just talk?
- I have to go pick up more voters.

Okay, if you won't talk to me,
can you at least talk to Robel

about securing Chief Ross' job?

That might've been a strategy
we could've ex*cuted ourselves

before you dropped out.

He still mad about you
dropping out of the race?

Yep.

I'm sorry, by the way.

You stuck your neck out for me,
publicly endorsing my campaign.

- I really appreciate it.
- You represented SFD well.

And, you know, dropping out early,

that doesn't change
the fact that you made

a lasting impact on this city.

Oh, d*ck, please.

Nope. I'm not doing that today.
I've got another event to go to.

Well, maybe I wanna
vote for the other guy.

- You know, this is voter suppression.
- Not now, Kitty.

Chief Dixon, Mrs. Dixon, uh...
can I help you with your ballot?

Yes, I need a replacement ballot
since my husband can't take a joke.

I've already cast my ballot by mail.

I'm just here to make sure
everything's running fairly.

Right.

Well, um, I can help you
with that, Mrs. Dixon.

- Wait, I know you from somewhere.
- Uh, yes, yes.

- Um, uh, good to see you again?
- Right.

We went to high school
together, didn't we?

You look great.

- Captain, we've cut the power.
- Copy.

Wiggins, Cutler, get in
and help get them out.

Yo, this what you're looking for?

Are you gonna get them out now?

'Cause I really need it to
look like none of this happened.

What's this room here?
It's not in my site map.

Dude, I told you, I don't...

Alright, is there an
emergency power source?

- Your boss mention anything?
- Nope.

Don't touch me. I don't
want you to touch me.

Get back. I don't...

Lieutenants, hold off
on the extrication.

We just found out there may
be a backup power source.

We need to finish assessing the scene.

Captain, the power's off now.
We shouldn't wait any longer.

I have a patient with
a bleeding head injury.

She's speaking erratically.
We need to get her out.

And we will when I make
sure the scene is secure.

- Power's going to his head already.
- Stop instigating.

Copy, Captain.

I'll update you with any
status changes on the patients.

- There's nothing going on.
- Don't mop to me.

I want to know where the
hell you go every day.

Because I've borrowed
you in the mornings,

- and you're not going to work.
- Honey, honey, you're not making sense.

Hey, is she gonna be alright?

It's your call, but we
gotta do something now.

She's slurring her words.

Laura, stay calm.
We're gonna get you out.

Captain, I'm starting extrication.

Stand down! I said
stand down, Lieutenant.

Beckett.

This is the only thing
my ex-wife left me

- in the divorce, and I asked you...
- Okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I asked you not to touch anything.

- I'm sorry.
- You need to go.

We haven't finished
the assessment yet, I...

J-Just ask me what you
came here to ask me, Hughes!

Just ask it.

Did you skip shift...

Did you skip shift today
because you were thinking

about k*lling yourself?

- Photo? Shall we?
- Yeah.

Excuse me. You mind?

I didn't even have to do anything.
You went to the union on your own.

What were you thinking, Natasha?

That I wasn't gonna
let a scumbag like you

determine how I go down.

You can keep smiling if you want to...

'cause you don't have a chance in hell
of becoming mayor of this city.

If I win, you're out
and so is Crisis One.

And if Robel wins, you're out,

'cause he's not going to
keep somebody as radioactive

and polarizing as you around.

If you win and I'm gone...

that makes me a civilian again, Dixon.

That means that I can
talk to who I want,

when I want, how I want.

Pushed out of SFD,

failed the academy entrance exam twice,

an expunged DUI,

and kicked off your high
school marching band. Wow.

Well, you didn't think
you were the only one

that did recon on your enemies, did you?

You better learn to
watch your back, d*ck.

Hey. These are your
favorite bagels, right?

Got them for you. Look at this one...

No cream cheese, just
the way you like it.

You got those for free
at a campaign event.

Yes, I did.

Okay, you hate me, but
at least can you find it

in your heart to save Chief Ross?

I mean, Crisis One might
not be able to survive

without her long-term. Eli!

She should be around to see it through.

This election is bigger
than saving your boss' job.

Dixon, who is essentially
a supervillain,

is on the verge of winning.

Even you can't inspire us
out of the reality of that.

You think I'm inspiring?

Don't even think about
ratting me out to Diane.

I wasn't.

But I could.

There's nothing wrong
with asking for help.

Beckett, more of us die by su1c1de

than in the line of duty.

We see the worst tragedies of humanity

and that can take a toll.

Yeah, I just got back
from a rehab clinic

for first responders. I know the spiel.

Then you know you could be
dealing with compassion fatigue

- or PTSD or moral injury.
- Oh, yeah?

These gonna be on
next week's psych exam?

I just want... Please, just
let me finish the assessment.

I don't need a diagnosis.
Just give me the box!

Is this what you do in these
peer-to-peer assessments, huh?

You break people's stuff
and talk their ear off?

Well, you know what? Full
disclosure... This is my first one.

- Oh?
- I basically just made it up

because I was worried about
you, and you know what?

It was a good idea.

- I could report you.
- Yeah.

You could.

Do you play?

Uh been a while.

Tell you what... Game of H.O.R.S.E.

- I win, you leave.
- Mm.

You know, how about this...
How about every time I score,

you have to answer a question.

Yeah?

That was... Come on.

- That was too easy.
- Alright.

- Everything okay, Chief?
- Oh yeah.

Nothing I can't handle.

Hey, congrats again on your award.

I actually wanted to
talk to you about that.

Um... I can't accept it.

We have an extraordinary department.
We save lives every day.

I-I don't think I deserve an award

for a call where I lost a life.

You know, you're right.

Everyone who works
here is extraordinary.

So how dare you not celebrate
the wins when they come.

I don't feel right about it. Look,
the guy that I was able to save,

- he's still in the hospital, and he...
- Hey.

Uh, sorry to interrupt.

I just wanted to introduce my
wife to the man who saved my life.

- Kathy.
- Hi. Uh, Reggie, right?

- Uh, black widow spider bite.
- Ah.

- How are you?
- Doing great.

Took your advice and stopped
letting life pass me by.

I don't know what you
said to him, but thank you.

We finally took that vacation to Italy.

- So, thank you.
- Oh. Uh...

I could never repay
you for what you did.

But it's a small token
of my appreciation.

You saved my life, Dr. Warren.

Thank you for this, Reggie.

- You bet.
- Have a good day.

- Thank you.
- Like I said, take the wins.

- I should have listened to my father!
- I'm sorry, Laura!

He never coffee'd to you!

- Laura!
- He said you smile too much!

You're either selling something
or you're not too bright!

It's gonna be okay! I'll
see you at the hospital!

I'm so sorry, Laura!
I'll be right there!

Hey, I understand
you want to see Laura,

and we're gonna get you out next,

but you have to let us do it properly.

- I don't know how it got this bad.
- Matt.

We were running errands
like we do every week,

then out of nowhere, she says she
wants a divorce. I was so shocked,

- I hit the gas and crashed.
- Okay, it's alright.

I gotta get out of here!

No, no. You have to sit still, Matt.

It's alright.

Hey, Matt, Matt, no, no, no, no!

Stand clear, everyone. The
back-up generator just kicked in.

- Aaaah!
- We need backup now!

Copy. Sending Bishop in now.

This time, no one steps out of line.

Bishop, I need you to help
get this scrubber off him.

I thought he turned the power off!

We did, okay?! He's looking
for another generator!

Help! Little help here!

Captain, Bishop is
caught in the scrubber.

- Help me!
- How the hell did that happen?

- Get it off of me!
- We need extra hands now.

Oh, God! Someone cut me out of this!

Gibson, what's
up with that generator?

Turning it off now, Captain.

If orders were followed the first time,
this could have been avoided.

Let's go, let's go. Hurry up!

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

Missing limbs folks...

Yeah, I don't... I
don't have any of those.

- Careful.
- Hold his arm.

Get the patients out safely.

Okay. Okay.

- Oh!
- Oh-ho-ho-ho!

Yeah, I mean, rehab was great.

Good food, hot staff, fluffy pillows.

Five stars.

So why'd you cut out early?

Uh, I just couldn't
stand all the group talk

and the group therapy.

Nobody shut up about the
worst day of their life.

It was depressing.

Did you talk about your worst day?

- That's three questions.
- Oh, come on.

Just answer me, Beckett.

How's Captain Boyfriend?

We can always count on Grey-Sloan
to donate medical supplies,

but I would like to start paying, uh,

the volunteers a small stipend soon.

- I can't always be here.
- Yeah.

I'll start figuring
that into the budget.

No problem. Great.

Well, you wanted your proof.

What... Warren? What?

Uh, I'm sorry, Chief, but, uh,

Carina wants proof that
Bishop is doing better,

and... I think you can give it to her.

Well, uh, your wife just
turned down the opportunity

to be considered for captain of .

W... Sorry... Wait. She did... No, no.

No, no. There is nothing she
wants more than her captaincy back.

Mm, you're wrong, 'cause
there's something she wants more.

Oh, my God! Help, please, somebody!

Now you have your proof.

Anybody?! Over here! Please help!

Hey, you guys. Hi. Hey,
hey, help, help, help.

How bad is it?

- Oh, my God. I mean, i-it...
- You're okay.

You look great.

- May... May I?
- Okay.

It looks like you knocked out a tooth.

Any chance either of you
picked it up? We need to reinsert

- it as soon as possible.
- We'll find it.

- We'll find it. Come on.
- We will?

Okay, be careful not to touch the root.

- Don't forget... don't touch the root.
- What... What happened?

We were racing each other
to come drop off our ballots,

but we crashed into each other
and flew off our scooters.

And of course, you
weren't wearing helmets.

Where would we find helmets?

That wouldn't have
helped my knee. Right?

It really hurts.

Oh, my God, Javi!

Is that my kneecap?

What's it doing over there?

You dislocated it. Don't worry.

We'll get you fixed right up, okay?

Let's get them into reception.

Put your arm around me. And up we go.

- Here we go. Easy.
- My head.

Hey.

You doing okay? 'Cause
you look like hell.

Thanks.

I was cleared, so I'm all good.

This day has been insane
on, like... all the levels.

Yeah, what could be more insane

than getting stuck
in a running car wash?

Uh, yeah, how about not
stepping up as captain?

What alternate universe is this?

Hopefully one where I'm not
the epicenter of drama anymore.

Or, you know, uh, the one
where I don't self-destruct

every time I meet a new
sibling. That'd be nice.

I thought everything
was good with Brooke?

No, no. It is, it is.

She just had to, you
know, go and ruin it

by springing her family up on me now.

Now, it's the sister tonight, you know,

so we'll see if that's where that ends.

- I'm just gonna bail, right?
- Gibson, just show up, okay?

You show up and you'll
laugh at the possibility

that you will meet someone who
might someday matter to you.

Just let life do its thing, okay?

Don't try to control it.
You have been through a lot.

This is nothing. Just be there.

- Alright.
- Speaking of drama...

It kinda feels good to not be involved

in that three-way pissing contest.

- It does.
- You two need to shut up.

Yeah, but you gotta admit,
it's kinda funny, right?

A little bit? Little funny?

Not as funny as "Maya versus
the spinning scrubber,"

- but it's right up there.
- Oh.

It's high on that funny list. Yeah?

- Ha-ha.
- Okay, bye!

Alright. Let's get him to the hospital.
What's taking so long?

First he says we're moving too fast,

- then we're moving too slow.
- Look, I need to see my wife!

Okay, okay, we're gonna
get you to the hospital,

- make sure the damage isn't serious.
- No, no, no, no!

Just... Just... Just
give me a sling, whatever.

- I-I just need to go see her.
- Okay.

God, I-I should have told her.

- It's never too late to come clean.
- I'm not cheating.

Alright? I-I just... I lost my job.

I-I pretend to go to work
every day because I'm a failure.

We're broke and it's
my fault, and I just...

I just couldn't tell her, so I lied.

Now she wants a divorce.

You know, Matt,
sometimes a lie blows up...

and destroys everything.

It's better to face things head on.

We owe people the common decency
of not lying to their faces.

I'm gonna tell her. I'm
gonna tell her the truth.

Okay, we're gonna get this put back
into place as soon as possible,

but if it doesn't go in immediately,

they're gonna have to do some
X-rays at the hospital, okay?

I am always telling my boys how
dangerous those scooters are.

Yeah, I saw a guy lose a nipple
once in a scooter accident.

Don't worry. I've done
this in the field many times.

Just hold still.

I know we shouldn't
have been going so fast.

It's just... we were so excited to vote.

It's our first time. We
raced here after our lecture.

We just wanted to leave tracks.

- To leave tracks?
- It's a quote.

- Uh, the Notorious RBG.
- Mm-hmm.

Um, "Whatever you choose
to do, leave tracks.

You will want to leave
the world a little better

for your having lived."

Wow. Thank God for you.

I mean that. Thank God
for your whole generation,

'cause we wrecked everything.

We pretty well wrecked
the whole country.

- We wrecked the planet.
- Not completely, 'cause of you.

'Cause of your
generation. Racing to vote.

They were literally racing to vote.

How is everyone not racing
to vote? The planet is boiling.

Yeah, like, do they want to keep having

to run active sh**t drills at school?

I am so sorry...

I'm sorry for that, too.

I'm never getting on a scooter again.

But please, God, don't quit
racing to vote, alright?

Here's to making tracks.

We found it!

We found it. We found the tooth.

- Oh!
- Looks like you lose, Hughes.

Time to go.

Oh, come on, Beckett. Come on.

We're not done yet. Let's go.

- We had a deal.
- We can...

Okay.

Alright, why don't you just...

Why don't you tell me
about your worst day?

That's why you left the
Excellence Center, right?

Why don't you just tell me? Tell me.

Okay.

Alright, there was a blizzard one year,

and there was a man
living out of his car

down the street from the station,
and we went to check on him,

and he was frozen
to death in the back seat

with a picture of his wife and his kid,

and when we took him to the hospital,

they couldn't even declare him
dead because he had to thaw out.

God, can you imagine that? That...

God, I had nightmares
about that for months.

For me, it was the quiet ones.

I can... I can handle a call

when we're anticipating
horrific casualties.

A few years back, we got called

to an apartment building on Sycamore.

The tenants had reported
the smell of gas.

Woman was on the couch. She was dead.

And... then we found a bedroom door

with... sheets stuffed under the sill.

They had little... blue racing
cars on them... the sheets.

That woman had wanted to take her life,

but she didn't want the gas
to get into her kids' bedroom.

When we found the kids
in their bunk beds...

They were dead, too.

I can't even drive
down that road anymore.

This the part where I'm
supposed to feel better?

- Wow.
- Hmm.

Eventually, I mean, you just gotta...

You gotta sit in that pain you buried...

No, I don't wanna... I
don't wanna sit in this pain.

I don't want to feel this, Hughes.

I said I didn't want to talk, didn't I?

I mean, if I want to feel pain,
I can just go back to rehab.

I had a plan. I felt
better. I felt... relief.

Why are you still here?

I'm not leaving, Sean.

I don't...

Has anyone heard from Vic?

I haven't seen her.

As captain, isn't it your job
to know where your team is?

I know I would.

Yeah, as captain, I expect
my team to follow orders.

I called Grey-Sloan.

The civilian had a brain bleed.

If we hadn't acted when we
did, she could have herniated.

You should be written
up along with Hughes.

The car wash was chaos, and
if Bishop had gotten hurt,

- it'd be on you.
- I'm fine.

It'd be on all of us,
'cause we're a team,

and you should trust
what your team tells you.

And you should trust
what your captain tells you.

Oh, I get it. You, uh,
feel threatened, huh?

I feel threatened?

If you think Chief Ross
is gonna give you a nod...

You know, you are
so determined to play it safe...

you're out of your mind. You're
gonna get somebody k*lled.

- I'm telling you that right now.
- Alright, that's enough.

Not one of you is acting
like a captain right now.

I thought I had made a decision, but...

maybe I need to rethink it.

Rethink everything.

Bishop, take the rest of shift
off, make sure you're alright.

Copy that, Captain.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- I'm going home.
- I know, and I'm coming with you.

You're coming with me?

You turned down the
opportunity to become a captain.

Yeah.

Then I'm coming home, bambina.

For good?

For better or worse.

For richer or poorer, I...

Okay, now put some clothes on

so I can take them off
of you when we get home.

The race of Seattle's
next mayor continues to be tight,

as Election Day comes to an end.

Tapping into the
too-close-to-call competition

to be the next mayor of Seattle,

take a look at the turnout.

City Councilman Robel Osman
and Police Chief Michael Dixon

are neck and neck...

By the way, I saw what
you did back there.

The whole lying thing.

It's my way of apologizing.

I know how deep it goes for you.

Your parents lied to
you your whole life.

I lied to you about Natasha.

I know lying is a
trigger... and I'm sorry.

Apology accepted.

Look at us.

Yeah, we've come a long way, huh?

Yeah. Hmm.

- We might've even traded places.
- What?

Look who's the ruthless

- one now.
- What?

"As captain, isn't it your job to know
where your team is?"

Alright, that... you... your
impression of me sucks.

It's terrible. Ah.

I miss this.

How easy things are when we're good.

The good times are few and
far between with Natasha,

and sometimes I wonder
if we're wasting our time.

I thought the beginning of a
relationship was supposed to be easy.

- Ha.
- It was with us.

No. Don't idealize us, okay?

You're...

I avoided you for months instead
of fighting for what we had,

and now... now you're running
from the love you have.

Don't.

Don't do that.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

Montgomery, get in here! Oh, oh!

Come in here! Quick!

With % of the votes counted,

the next mayor of Seattle
is projected to be...

Robel Osman.

Alright! Yeah!

- Montgomery, you did it!
- That's right.

Dixon out.

Yeah, we got that fascist out!

We did it, Chief. We did it.

- Yeah, love it!
- Yeah, yeah. We did.

Montgomery, you did it!

We did it!

We did it! We did it!

Wipe that smile off your face.

Yes, the right man
for the job won today,

and the fate of Seattle is
intact, no thanks to you.

You have... You have this
brave, noble act down,

and that is the most dangerous part...

To be the most compelling
person I've ever met...

and it's all been an act.

Do you have nothing to say for yourself?

I'm sorry. It's all the talking.

How convenient. You've lost your voice.

Glad you're gonna go back
and finish the program.

My... My union rep's
gonna be here any minute.

You can...

You can go.

I'll wait.

Oh, come on, hug me back, Kingpin.

This is all I got, Hughes.

I have a surprise for you.

Thanks.

Don't be nervous.

- I'm... I'm good.

Do you know who that is?
