04x17 - Kidding

[bunniefuu]

MAN: Good morning. ROY: Hi.

Oh, good morning.

Oh, good morning.
Can I help you?

Oh, well, could be.

Have you fellows been
around here very long?

Well, yeah.
Ever since about 8:00.

That's when our shift starts.

No, I mean have you been
around this fire station very long?

A couple of years. Oh?

Yeah. Why?

Well, I was thinking of building a
hamburger stand over at that, you know,

that empty lot over there
on the corner.

Is that so?

Yeah. I figured, you know...

Are you a builder?

Oh, no, no, no. I'm not a builder,
I'm a short order cook.

But, you know, I figured I wanted
to go into business for myself,

and I figured I'd ask a
couple of guys like you, yeah.

How can we help you?

Well, let me ask you something.

Do you know what used
to be on that lot over there?

Well, it's been an empty lot for
about as long as I can remember.

Well, can I ask you
another question?

Do you think a hamburger stand

would do okay at that location?

Well, I...

Well, how much you
charge for hamburgers?

Fifty-five cents.

But that's with pickle and
potato chips now, you know.

Well,

I think that's
a pretty good idea.

Yeah. Thanks.

I think you should try it.

Johnny, I don't think
we're in any position

to be giving you
any business advice.

Well, wait a minute. Why not?

You know,
it's a free country, ain't it?

Yeah. It's a free country.

I asked him. He liked the idea.

John. John.

Huh? Can I see you for a minute,
please?

Oh, yeah. Sure.

Excuse me. I'll be right back.

Why not?

Yeah, Cap?

Yeah, John,
yesterday's shift reported

that the brakes on the
squad are just about gone.

Yeah, I know. They were
getting kind of sloppy.

Well, I'll tell you what.

Why don't we take it out of service
for about three hours this afternoon

and run it by the shop and
have the brakes realigned?

Squad 45 will run
your responses for you.

Okay. I got a good idea.

How about right after lunch?

There's usually no responses,
not too many of them anyway.

Well, let Roy take it over.

I tell you, I've got
another job for you.

The director of
paramedic training

is running a tour of the
hospital this afternoon

for a bunch of fifth graders
and he needs a tour guide.

Cap.

Fifth graders!

Mmm-hmm. Look, I have an idea.

All right.

Roy's got kids
of his own, right?

And he gets along well
with kids and everything.

Well, why can't he take
the kids to the hospital

and I'll drive the squad
and have the brakes realigned.

You know what?
It makes a lot of sense.

Yeah.

You know what else?

You're gonna meet those
kids in the volunteer room

at the hospital at 1400 hours.

Got it? I got it.

Good.
I'll go tell Roy right now.

You know what you just did?

You just talked a man into
building a hamburger stand.

I did?

Him? Great!

What do you mean, "Great"?

I just think it's great.

I mean, it's good.

We should have a
hamburger stand on the corner.

Look, what if we go out on a
call and we're late for a meal?

We're always assured
of a hot hamburger.

A man cannot run a hamburger
stand on just our business.

CHET: Coffee's on.

Well...

Coffee's on. Coffee's on.

All right,
we heard you. We heard you.

Why don't you guys
ever acknowledge me?

All right,
we're acknowledging. We're acknowledging.

You don't have to
so irritable about it.

Forget it.

Can I have a little coffee?
Thank you.

Well, you're welcome.

Hey, how old are
fifth grade kids?

Oh, 10 or 11.

Oh, about 10 or 11, huh?

Oh, thank you.

Oh, you're welcome.

That's not very old.

Not very old for what?

Old enough to understand
the complexities

of a very large and very
modern hospital, I think.

Yeah, old John here is
a volunteer tour guide

at the hospital this afternoon.

[SCOFFS] Yeah. Volunteer.

Well, kids are a lot older
than most adults, I think.

They're smart.

Smart!

I remember when I was 10 years old,
I wasn't very smart.

You're not very smart now.

[GROANING]

You got here just in time.

It's his wife.

He's flipped out. He's crazy.

Has anybody called the cops?

I don't know.

You thought you could put one over on me,
huh?

But I outsmarted you.

Talk, SPY-

We can't wait.

Dump these helmets.

Jimmy, please.

Who sent you here, woman?

Jimmy, I'm your wife.

Talk, spy. Talk.

I got an idea.

You wait here, okay?

What are you gonna do?

White flag. Maybe it'll
calm him down a little bit.

You surrendering?

Yeah. Yeah. We're surrendering.

JOHNNY: Yeah,
right. Throw your g*ns on the ground.

Now, look, we don't...

Throw your g*ns on the ground.

JOHNNY: We don't have any g*ns.

I see your g*ns!
Throw them on the ground.

All right, all right.
Calm down, calm down.

We've thrown them away.

All right, now you just
calm down, okay?

This is a trick!

No. Look,
it's not. We're surrendering, right?

We're parlaying.
Get out of here!

Now, look, don't get excited.
Please don't hurt the girl.

She's going to get it.
This is a trick!

JOHNNY: Look, man...
I know! Get out!

All right, now you just
calm down, okay?

Now, look, calm down.
Don't hurt the girl, okay?

JIM: It's a trick.

It's not a trick. Calm down.

Get out of here.

All right, just take it easy.

Just take it easy.
We're not going to...

Get out of here!

[ALL GRUNTING]

LISA: [SOBBING] Don't
hurt him. Don't hurt him.

Please don't hurt him.

JOHNNY: All right,
all right. He's okay, he's okay.

He's sick. Now you go on out of the way,
okay?

I know he's sick.
Come on out of the way.

Just wait over here.
They can take care of him.

Come on. Come on.
He's going to be all right.

Get away from there.
He's going to be all right.

He's going to be fine. Now,
come on over here. Come on. Come on.

Come on, don't worry about him.

We'll just leave him alone.
They're not going to hurt him.

Now, come on. Here.
Why don't you sit down here?

Just sit down.

[JIM GROANING]

Are you okay?

All right, now, I want you
to leave him alone, okay?

Now, look, can you answer
some questions for me?

All right. How long has
your husband been like this?

About a month, off and on.

About a month?

Well, has he been reporting
for duty or is he on furlough?

No. He's been out of
the army for over a year.

Over a year.

Well, on a medical discharge?

[GRUNTING]

Honorable. Honorable?

Well, does he have a job?

Yeah. But he works
in a trucking company.

Well, has he been
missing work lately?

[SOFTLY] Sometimes.

Sometimes? Here.

We better get over there.
He's in trouble.

Now, look,
I want you to stay here.

We've got to keep him calm,
so I don't want you to go near him, okay?

You'll just upset him. Do you
understand what I'm saying?

You're gonna stay here.

Okay, wait a minute. We
can handle it from here, I think.

Stay there. Thanks.

Get in here and
get a respiration.

Easy now. Just relax, huh?

[GRUNTING] Take it easy.

Hey, we got about 28
in respiration, Johnny.

All right, let me get
on the Biophone, huh?

All right, I'm going to try
to get a carotid on him.

All right, now, look.
Take it easy.

[GRUNTING]

Now, look,
we're just trying to get a carotid on you.

Now, just settle down.

Help!

I can't even get
a carotid on him.

Rampart, this is Squad 51.

KELLY: Go ahead, 51.

Rampart,
we have a male patient in his mid-20s here.

w*r veteran.

He's hallucinating
pretty heavily.

Any sign of physical injury, 51?

None that we can tell.

Victim is under restraints, and we're
unable to get any real vitals on him.

I got a respiration of 28.



That's affirmative, Rampart.

All right, 10-4, 51.

Give him 10 milligrams
diazepam IM and bring him on in.



[GROANING]

Okay. Just take it easy. We're
going to give you a sh*t here.

Make you feel a little
better. Calm you down.

Take it easy.

Okay. Just relax.

Relax.

[GRUNTING]

All right, easy.

You're gonna be okay.

Here we are.
Guess we can take him in.

You wanna go in with him?

Okay.

Here you are. Okay.

Got him?

Got him?

How is he doing?
Well, pretty good

since we gave him
that sh*t of diazepam.

How are you feeling?

All I've got to tell you is my name,
rank and serial number.

He thinks
he's a prisoner of w*r.

Mike, you better run
a preliminary psychiatric.

All right, Kel.
Treatment 1 is available.

Oh, Doc, this here is his wife,
if you want to talk to her.

You don't need us anymore,
do you? No. Go ahead.

Has he had any
recent physical injuries

like a knock or a fall?

No, nothing that I know of.

Has he been taking
any medication, any dr*gs?

No. Not even an aspirin tablet.

Any history of mental illness?

Not until he started acting
strangely about a month ago.

Strangely, how?

[sum-nus]

Forgetful, sloppy-

Irrational.
At times, hearing voices.

Has seen a doctor
since any of this started?

No. I'd hoped he'd get back to his old,
normal self.

I see.

What's gonna happen to him?

Well, I'll have our psychiatric
department examine him.

We may have to send him
to the state hospital.

For the insane?

For the mentally handicapped.

If the tests indicate
it's warranted.

Patients are usually kept there for life,
aren't they?

No, not usually.

Sometimes.

Why don't we wait and see
what his tests show.

You wait here, huh?

Who is the president
of the United States?

My name is James Long,
my rank is private first class,

my serial number is 0143.

Jim, do you know where you are?

Enemy headquarter.

In what country?

You're trying to confuse me.

Are you married?

No.

I've got a girl back home.

We're gonna get married
when the w*r is over.

Watch him closely.

Hey, Dix. Mmm-hmm?

Do you remember when
you were 10 years old?

He's taking a group of fifth grade
students on a tour of the hospital,

and he's trying to figure out
how to communicate with them.

Why don't you just
talk to them straight?

Well, they're fifth graders.

I mean, that's not exactly
medical students, you know.

I mean, if I talk
above their heads,

then I'd blow the
whole field trip for them.

Dix, what do you think about

taking them into the
pediatric playroom?

Well, what I think is that
you're selling these kids short.

That's what I've been
trying to tell him.

You know, the trouble
with you two is

that you think
too much like adults.

Kel, he definitely belongs
in the psych ward.

That's what I thought
when I first heard about it.

You guys are probably right.

I'd like to do a medical
examination on him just to make sure.

He's gonna fight you.

I just have to do
the best I can.

Don't you think you need
some reinforcements?

Are you guys volunteering?

Of course. Sure.

Let's go.

I'm Dr. Brackett.
Do you remember me?

You're the enemy
commander, right?

Now I'm just
going to examine you.

Geneva Convention says
you're not supposed to touch me.

Mike, hold his head still.

Now, I'm not going to
hurt you. Just take it easy.

Just relax.

Joe, you take a look at this.

Definite papilledema.

Mike, I want a complete
neurological workup.

EEG, skull x-rays
and brain scan.

All right now,
there's nothing to be afraid of.

Well, the neural exam
definitely confirms it.

It certainly does.

I was sure it was a
purely psychiatric problem.

Well, it certainly
seemed to be, Mike.

Well, gentlemen,
what do you think?

Well, the longer we wait,
the less chance he has.

I think the tumor
should be removed

at the earliest possible moment.

I agree.

I wonder.

What, Kel?

If it isn't too late already.

What are you doing?

Why don't you stay out
of my way? I'm mopping.

You just got my foot wet.

You shouldn't be
blocking the door like that.

It's against fire regulation.

[sum-nus]

Bubblegum and balloons and...

What, you having a party?

Hospital tour.

With bubblegum and balloons?

Lemonade. Kids love lemonade.

So do I.

You know, these kids have
got to be pretty serious-minded

to be going on a hospital tour,
wouldn't you say?

Well, don't they get thirsty?

Sure. Everybody gets thirsty.

I mean, they have lemonade in
the hospital cafeteria, don't they?

Yeah, they do.

You're right, they do.

That's where
I'll start my tour off at,

in the cafeteria.

Then I can give them
the lemonade,

the balloons and
the bubblegum all at once.

You know,
get it off to a rousing start.

You got to be making
a rousing mistake.

These kids are


So what?

If I were a kid, I'd love to get lemonade,
balloons and bubblegum.

John, you are a kid.

Yes, sir. What's the problem?

Yeah. There's a woman
stuck in a dog door in back.

A dog door?

Yeah. She locked herself out

and was trying to get back
inside to let me make my delivery.

Is she hurt?
No. I don't think so.

Hey, look, I got
a route to cover.

You guys don't mind if I...

Yeah. We can handle it
from here. Thanks a lot.

Thank you. Good luck.

All right. Thanks. Yeah, thanks.

[PANTING]

Wait a minute. Are you hurt?

Hold can, hold can, hold can.

Ma'am, are you hurt?

Oh, thank goodness.
No. I'm not hurt.

And I certainly hope
you can get me out of here.

Well, that's what
we're here for.

We're gonna see what we can do,
okay?

You know, I don't understand it.

I used to able to
squeeze through this way.

Is it possible, I wonder,
can dog doors shrink?

[WOMAN GRUNTING]

She's stuck in there real tight.

Yeah. I know.

Please get me out of here.
Man Eater will be awfully mad.

Man Eater?

Man Eater, that's my dog.

He wants to get out.
After all, this is his door.

[WOMAN GRUNTING]

Maybe we could cut through, huh?

Oh, no. You mustn't do that.

My husband will be furious.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

I'm gonna hold my breath, right?

[INHALING DEEPLY]

[WOMAN EXHALING] All right.

Ma'am, blow your breath out
and then hold it, okay?

All right,
good. Now we'll see what we can do.

[WOMAN GROANING]

Ma'am? Yeah.

Wait a minute. Look.

Why don't I go inside,
you stay here,

and then we'll try to
get her free, all right?

All right. I'll go
along with that. Yeah.

Let's try it. How are
you going to get in?

Well, I could maybe
break a window or something.

Couldn't you go down
the chimney instead?

What happened?

Are you the husband? Yes.

Oh! Oh, Harry,
you got here just in time.

Will you let the
fireman in the house?

Do you have a key
to the front door?

Of course I have the key.

I always have my key.

She never has her key!

Harry has a short fuse,
but he's a good man.

Yeah.

Yeah. Sounds like it.

Yes? Now, ma'am.

You're gonna have to not kick around,
okay? You may hurt yourself.

Okay, you just stay still.

[CHUCKLING]

Now he tells me.

Oh, please.

You really look ridiculous.

Thanks a lot.

Hi.

Hi.

Look, why don't we try
getting you out of there.

Where's Man Eater?

Man Eater's in the kitchen,
sulking somewhere.

Oh, okay. Let's get you out
of here before he gets back.

All right. Johnny? JOHNNY: Yeah.

You push and I'll pull, okay?

All right.

[GRUNTING]

I think it's working.

All right. All right,
good. Pull her. All right.

ROY: Easy. I think it's working.

[WOMAN GRUNTING]

There we go.

Easy does it.

Hon, please leave our house
key with one of the neighbors.

Oh, yes, Harry.
Of course I will.

[GRUNTING] Easy. Easy.

There. That's fine.

You Okay?

WOMAN: I'm fine. All right.

You wanna... Oh.

[sum-nus]

Well, is everybody okay here?

Oh, just fine. Thanks. Yeah.

We're sure sorry we
had to inconvenience you.

That's okay,
that's part of our job.

Can I make you some
coffee or something?

[MAN EATER BARKING]
No, thank you.

We got to get back
to the station.

Oh, Man Eater!

Oh, sweetheart.

[CHATTERING]

It's a very serious
operation, Mrs. Long.

But you really don't
have any choice.

It's your husband's only chance.

I need time to think.

Jim doesn't have very much time.

[sum-nus]

When he was away
fighting overseas,

I woke up every day
expecting to hear

that he'd been
k*lled or captured.

Then when he came home and
was discharged from the army.

I thought we had a...

A whole lifetime together.

KELLY: Well, you still might.

If you sign those
authorization forms.

Why can't Jim sign them?

Because Jim is incapable
of understanding them.

[sums]

If the operation is successful,

he'll be all right?

He won't act...

He won't act crazy anymore?

[sums]

Hopefully.

You're a woman. You
can understand how I feel.

What would you do in my place?

What the doctors recommend.

There.

Yeah, I figure the pink
and the whites for the girls

and the orange and the red
and the blue for the guys.

Then they can all just have
one piece of bubblegum.

Hey, John, how about a piece
of bubblegum for old Chet?

No, you can't have any.

I've only got six
and there's six kids.

Well, you know, you shouldn't go
flaunting bubblegum around like that

if you don't have enough
for everybody.

I'm not flaunting
the bubblegum around.

I didn't know you were
so crazy about bubblegum.

So, now you know.

Well, you still can't have any.

Hey, Roy, does he have
anymore bubblegum?

I wouldn't know.

Why, you don't like bubblegum?

I can take it or leave it.

When I have a choice,
I always take it.

Will you quit? Get out of here.

Don't know how long
he was in there. Can't tell.

Do you have any idea why
he wanted to k*ll himself?

Beats me.

Never can tell what goes on inside
the head of these famous people.

Well, who is he?

That's Maxwell Hart.

The novelist.

That's him.

I've brought this man letters
from presidents and kings.

He hasn't been getting
very much mail lately.

I didn't know the man
was still alive.

Most people don't.

He hasn't written a new book in years,
not since his wife d*ed.

DIXIE: Three.

Three? This is our

Yeah, his color is coming

Well, he had a close call. I
think he's going to make it.

Let's continue the oxygen.
Get a set of arterial gases, okay?

Oh, hey, Dix,
you know who that is?

Should I?

That's Maxwell Hart,
the novelist.

You're kidding.

No. Did you ever
read any of his books?

I read all of his books. Everybody
has at one time or another.

Oh, well, I've never.

But I did see a movie that they
made out of one of his books, though.

Well, the books are better.

Did you know the kids you're
talking about won a county wide

essay contest on the
subject "Medicine Today"?

Nobody told me
anything about that.

Well, I just found out
myself a few minutes ago.

Well, it doesn't really matter.

I mean, kids are kids, you know.

Well, you wouldn't say that
if you'd read the essays.

Really good, huh?

Incredible.

I've got to go pick them up now.

You wouldn't...

No, I...

I've got to get the brakes realigned.
Take me a couple of hours maybe.

Okay.

All right, see you later.

Good luck.

What happens now?

Do I get locked up in a psychiatric
hospital for trying to do away with myself?

Not necessarily.

Psychiatrist will want
to see you, of course.

You going to leave me
alone with this pretty nurse?

If you promise
to behave yourself.

I wanna warn you, Mr. Hart.

I've been in love with you
ever since I read Till Tomorrow.

I'm not promising anything.

You know,
I really shouldn't leave you two alone.

But I got some patients to see.

How you feeling?

Mixed.

I like all the attention you and that
nice young doctor are paying me,

but I dislike the fact that
I couldn't even carry out

my own final exit
gracefully or successfully.

Why are you so anxious
to make your final exit?

Isn't it time?

I'm old and I'm tired.

I've seen it all, done it all.

And described it
all so beautifully.

No one writes like you.

That's a very gracious
thing of you to say.

It's true.

It's also true that not one book
of mine remains in publication.

They're on the library shelves.

Gathering dust.

Teaching new generations how
beautiful and exciting life can be.

I doubt that.

I doubt that very much.

I don't think the new
generation even knows I'm alive,

Of cares.

Okay, now, as soon as we are finished
with our lemonade and our bubblegum,

I got a great surprise
for all of you.

I love surprises. Me, too.

Oh, good. Oh, good, good.

Here, there's one for you, too.

Now, the surprise is.

I have procured permission for us
to go into the pediatrics playroom,

and that was no was no easy job,

so I want you guys
to appreciate that, okay?

Now, what you'll find
in the playroom

is the finest collection
of toys and games...

I don't think we care for that.

You...

You don't... Well,
we don't have to go there.

We can always go to some...

Yes?

Will we be able to view a surgical
procedure from the glass observation dome?

Sure, I mean, yeah.
I can find out...

Yes?

I'm interested in
the new techniques

for relieving pain
and controlling v*olence.

Can someone fill us in on those?

Yeah... Well, sure, let me...

I mean, I can find out.
Let me mark this down.

As soon as...
And I'll find out about...

Yes?

Can we see one of those
nuclear-powered pacemakers

that's able to function
five times longer

than the battery-operated
models?

Sure, why not?

I can find out. I mean...

Yes?

May I leave the room?

[STUTTERS]

Oh, you want to leave the room?

Oh, certainly. Yes, of course.

It's right down this little hallway right
here and just the second door on your left.

On your right.

Don't go on your left,
you'll get us both in trouble.

[CLEARS THROAT]

What do I tell the psychiatrist
to keep from being locked up?

That you have a lot to live for.

Do you think I'll
be able to fool him?

I think it's true.

I just hope they'll be able
to convince you of that.

[WOMAN ON PA]

JOHNNY: All right,
everybody stick together now.

We don't want anybody lost.

Mr. Hart!

Hi, Mr. Hart.

Do I know you?

He brought you in. He
probably saved your life.

Well, I don't know if
I should thank you or not.

You're Maxwell Hart!

Where do you know me from?

I recognized you!

From where?

From your picture in
Giants of American Literature.

Why, that picture
was taken 30 years ago.

Yeah,
but the profile is still the same.

Can I please have your autograph,
Mr. Hart?

Me, too.

Autograph?

Would you come and speak
to our literature club, Mr. Hart?

And ours?

Well...

If you boys and girls
would really like me to,

it'll be my great pleasure.

Yeah, yes indeed.

All right, come on, now.

Let's leave Mr. Hart alone,
he's a busy man.

Say bye-bye to Mr. Hart.

ALL: Bye-bye, Mr. Hart.

JOHNNY: All right.

Now, everybody stick together.
No noise up on the fourth floor.

You have to be quiet.

It's good bubblegum,
Johnny. You got another piece to give me?

No. Only had six.
That's for the Cap.

Roy?

Roy?

Could I have your
piece of bubblegum?

Sure.

Sure you don't want it?

No.

Thanks.

That was for his son.

Big deal, he can always stop
and get his son more bubblegum.

I'll tell you what, though.
I'll give you my balloon.

Give that to your son.

Thanks.

Don't thank me. Thank
Johnny. He bought it.

Thanks, Johnny.

How you doing? You
getting stumped again?

No, I think
I got him on the run.

What's that for?

Bubblegum.

Souvenir from my tour.

Oh, thanks a lot.

How'd it go?

Pretty good,
thanks to Maxwell Hart.

Maxwell Hart.

Yeah, the kids got so
excited about meeting him,

they lost all
interest in my tour.

That's too bad.

No, not really. It kind
of worked out for the best.

They were asking to go to places
that you'd have to be a PhD to get into.

You're kidding.

You know, one of the
girls asked a question

of Dr. Brackett that
even he couldn't answer.

What did she ask him? Checkmate.

[ALARM SOUNDING]

DISPATCHER: Station 51,
Station 49, Engine 23, Battalion 14.

Plane in trouble
at Morgan Field.

Morgan Field.

Time out, 1702.

[SIREN WAILING]

STANLEY: Station 51, KMG 365.

[HORN BLARING]

Here it comes.

Cap, he's overshot
the runway. Cap!

STANLEY: All units, Engine 51,
he's overshot the runway.

JOHNNY: Let's go.

[expl*si*n]

STANLEY: Engines


come into our location
and set up protector lines.

LA, Engine 51.

We have a fire in a downed
aircraft at Encino and Alvarado.

Send me a second alarm.
We're starting evacuation.

Squad 51, start evacuating
that bus immediately.

Estimate casualties 10 to 12.
We can use three ambulances.

DISPATCHER: 10-4, Engine 51.

[FIREFIGHTERS CHATTERING]

Move to the front of the bus for me,
all right?

Just relax in there. We're going
to be right in there to get you out.

JOHNNY: Do you want to go in?
Yeah.

We got about 10 kids
in there and the driver.

We're gonna have to bust
our way through this window.

Well, make it fast. There's a fire in
the bus and the plane is leaking fuel.

Cap, check out those wrecked
vehicles for occupants up here, will you?

Let's try the Ajax tool
on this door. Okay.

All right. Johnny,
I'll just hand them out to you.

JOHNNY: All right.

Okay, is anybody here among you,

any of you kids
have serious injuries?

Can you all make it
out the window here?

All right, let's go,
one at a time.

Listen, we're gonna try
to cut you guys out of here.

Can you get a hold of him
and pull him out of here?

Okay? Yeah.

JOHNNY: Just lay across
the shoulder. Atta boy.

All right, just lay across
the shoulder, there we go.

There we go. Atta girl.

There we go.

Run on over there.

Got it?

Now, let's go help
the driver up there.

Looks like they might
need some help.

Okay. All right.

She's alive.

Let me get the strap here.

Okay.

I have him. All right, easy.

MARCO: You got him?

Can we have a hand over here?

Got a bad laceration.
We gotta get out of here.

Pick up her feet.

You got them? Yeah.

You guys got him?

Slow now. JOHNNY: Okay.

Ready? Yeah.

Yeah, we're gonna need help
in here getting her out.

STANLEY: Watch those legs.
Watch it.

STANLEY: He's got a broken leg.

JOHNNY: A little bit more.

Just stay there.

Okay, we're gonna
hand her out backwards.

Watch her arms, now. We're
putting a lot of pressure on them.

Hurry it up, Cap,
we can't knock down this engine.

Fire in the wing t*nk
is leaking gas.

[GROANS]

MARCO: Okay, got him.

Get back! Everybody, get back!

Watch it.

Watch out.

Everybody okay?

Yeah, just some cuts
and bruises, I think, Cap.

How about them?

Well, the pilot was
k*lled on impact,

but I think the co-pilot
only has a broken leg.

I'll leave you two guys to
finish checking out the kids.

[SIREN WAILING]

Okay.

All right.

So it just blew up,
the biggest fireball you ever saw.

Well, how close were you guys?

Too close.

We were lucky only
the pilot d*ed.

We almost had
a disaster on our hands.

Yeah. Hey, speaking
of being lucky,

do you remember that w*r
veteran you guys brought in?

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, well, the operation went
great. He's just going to be fine.

All right. Oh, great.

Hey, John,

I finally found the answer to that
question that girl in your tour asked me.

Oh, yeah? What?
