- Stay with me, Clyde.

Okay. (PANTING)

JAKE: Keep going, Gabs, keep going.

You got this. Okay. Right.

Ventilate. Yep. Ventilate, ventilate.

Hey, hey. Pads, pads. Come on, come on.

- Gabs, he's going. He's going. Defib.
- Okay.

- Defib, right now!
- GABRIELA: Charging.

- (WHIRRING, THUMPS)
- Clear.

(DRONING BEEP)

JAKE: And he's dead.

(BEEPING STOPS)

Okay. Defib, straight into compressions,

then check the pulse.

Now, you k*lled Clyde three times today?

I really wish you wouldn't name him.

It makes him seem real.

Well, in the field,

it's super real, and
his name could be Clyde.

Ever since that bridge
call when we lost Meg,

I just... My medical instincts are off.

(SIGHS) Sammy.

That was my first loss that shook me.

Teenage girl...

Smoke inhalation got to
her before I could find her.

Mine was Harold.

He was a sweet, old grandpa,

who d*ed in my arms
on his th birthday.

I still think about that.

Well, I better get over this hurdle

or I won't pass my EMT board,

and then I'll be a probie forever.

Well, no one's a probie forever.

Well, then-then what? Do I just...

Do I get fired?

No. No.

Listen, you persist and you pass.

(PHONE BUZZES)

sh**t, I'm late.

What're you late for?

(EVE SCOFFS)

And why are you playing with your hair

like it's ever been different?

GABRIELA: Go easy on him.

He has his first date with Cara,

and it's important.

- (CHUCKLES): Oh!
- JAKE: Yeah, so, you know,

I need a hairstyle that says,

you know, "It's no big
deal that you're Bode's ex,"

and that, you know, "You used
to know me when I was a player."

Uh, what is all of this?

Oh, no, no, no. It's giving:

"I don't want to be a player no more,"

plus, Cal Fire. You good, bro.

- (LAUGHS): You good. Yeah.
- I'm not doing this.

- Okay, have a good one, bruh.
- (JAKE MUTTERING)

♪ ♪

I look like the Mattress King.

You are the Mattress King of this house.

(CHUCKLES QUIETLY)

Oh, come on.

- (SIGHS)
- Oh, no. That's backwards.

All right. I'll go with the hat.

But this totally undermines my authority

with the fair vendors to keep
their propane tanks organized.

Oh, hush now, you are the Grand Marshal

of this parade, not the fire marshal.

I wasn't even on the ballot.

Jake wrote me in.

It's so silly.

You know, most people would
consider that a compliment.

I'm not most people.

Um, speaking of Jake...

Any clue when we might
hear from the donor team

about his kidney?

No, and I'm not really
focusing on their decision.

However much time

I have left on this earth
isn't up to the team,

or Jake, or any of us.

Shar, they're gonna approve it.

Well, until then, I'm gonna
work while you charm Edgewater.

So if I die waiting for a kidney,

you don't become the town's

grinchy widower that nobody checks on.

I will not be a widower.

I'm okay with being grinchy, though.

Bye.

I love the hat.

See you at the Winter Fair.

All right, grade team, just, uh,

hang out here for a second.

Hey, stranger.

Rebecca.

You working this grade, too?

Yeah.

Looks like we're about to
have a fair to remember.

You know, you're looking really good.

You okay?

Yeah, today's just the closest
I've worked with civilians,

other than a fire, in a long time.

Want to make a good
impression on the grade.

To who? Cap?

People I grew up with

who now only see me
as a cautionary tale.

Well, as someone who's worked
a bunch of these grades already,

the novelty wears off.

You don't have to be
so perfect all the time.

Uh, it's kind of different for me.

You know, working the town fair

that I used to go to as a kid,

but now in orange.

All right.

You're tense.

You know, we could work
through that together,

maybe in the woods later?

- Rebecca, you're great, but...
- Wow.

The "you're great but" line?

Is this about the Cap's daughter again?

You two make it official or something?

No.

Not until I parole.

Oh, so you're just
dumping me for nobody?

MANNY: All right, grade team,

just, uh, hang out for
a little longer. Bode.

Rebecca. Follow me.

Keep at it, probie.

Hey, Eve, can you hook
us up with some sandbags

for the parade route?

Yeah. Gabs, can you show
them the supply room?

All right, Counselor.

Bode, follow Gabriela.
Grab the sandbags.

- Load them into the buggy.
- GABRIELA: This way.

You ready to shadow?

First lesson: find balance
between the spirit of the rule

and the letter of the law.

Grade projects give
inmates a sense of trust.

It show the community
that they're here to help.

- And it's a little free PR. Win-win.
- Plus,

the camp gets a little cash
bonus for the grade project.

How do you decide how
to allocate those funds?

Well, you've really read up, huh?

Well, the-the folks in Sacramento,

they told me about the kickback.

Well, it's not exactly a "kickback."

- (CHUCKLES)
- You spoke to Sacramento?

Yeah, the whole department
has their eyes on Three Rock.

(COFFEE POURING)

You a shadow or a spy?

(SCOFFS) Cap?

(LAUGHS) I'm just messing with you.

We're just gonna stick
to the basics, okay?

And that's it.

This what you're looking for?

Perfect. Just perfect.

- You working the fair today?
- Yeah.

Little nervous.

It's a great opportunity.

(SCOFFS) And risk.

A civilian even says I
looked at them the wrong way,

I could lose fire camp altogether.

Okay, but with great trust
comes great responsibility.

(REBECCA SIGHS)

At least, that's what my dad says.

(SIGHS) Poetic.

Little help here?

to good use.

Aaron.

Not trying to open up any old beefs.

Yeah, I knew I was the
better choice back then,

and I can see I'm the better man today.

Look at God, showing me validation.

REBECCA: Yeah, I don't
think God does petty.

BODE: Hey.

Rebecca, stop. Stop, stop.

As much as I would love to
get into it with this dude...

... there's-there's too
much on the line for us.

Mm. All right, kids,

let's not waste any
more fair time. Come on.

CARA: Donating a kidney to Sharon.

That's taking this whole
Superman thing you got going

to the next level.

- I really have a Superman thing?
- (CHUCKLES)

Yeah. Since high school.

Though, back then,

it was letterman energy.

(SCOFFS)

You anxious for surgery?

Uh, a group of strangers
are voting to decide

how many kidneys I have
for the rest of my life.

So that's a "yes" to anxious.

More anxious than getting
thrown on this thing

MAN: Tickets ready.
tickets. A little bit.

(LAUGHING)

CARA: You remember coming
here in high school?

- (SCOFFS)
- Me with Bode.

You with your flavor-of-the-month.

JAKE: I'm not too proud of
my dating habits back then.

Oh, so Superman's evolved.

Ride's full this round.

Yeah.

Yeah, you know, I like to think so.

You know, let's see.

After I had the pleasure of

You and I were always just casual.

I didn't think that
you'd care if we stopped.

Nice and slow.

All right.

When you report back to your
little friends in Sacramento,

you can tell them whatever you want

about how I allocate my resources.

From this grade project

or whatever crumbs of
funding they may give me.

But you let them know
that everything I do,

and every choice I
make, it's for my guys.

No. The work you do excites me.

It was a rush I wasn't expecting.

And I want more.

And you're out here giving it to 'em.

more likely somebody helped him.

Hey. Hey, Jamie, Jamie.

Did you use your inhaler?

It's empty. Go grab
somebody from my dad's crew

Hey. Jamie.

Jaime, you'll be all right, okay?

We're gonna get you some help.

Gabriela!

Gabriela!

He's in trouble, he
really needs your help

His inhaler's empty.

I think he stopped breathing.

He doesn't have... He
doesn't have a pulse.

- He needs CPR, now.
- Um...

No, D.C. Leone said that

I had to be ready to be of
service, and I'm not ready.

You are ready, you always have been.

You did it for me. You
can do it for Jamie.

Not trying would be so much worse.

Come on.

Um, starting compressions.

Bode,

I need you to grab my radio

Gabriela and I found
Jamie in the Kreepy Kastle.

He's having an asthma att*ck.
We need a nebulizer and...

- Albuterol!

Probie, I know you'll
do everything you can.

Breathe for me.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

- Come on.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Okay. Okay, okay.

Bode, I need you to help me sit him up.

Is he... is he still having an att*ck?

Yes,

but he's...

it'll help him breathe better.

- (BREATHING HEAVILY)
- Okay, okay.

There you go. Okay.

- Over here? Yeah, we'll take him.
- (SIGHS) Okay.

Okay, come on.

It's okay, all right?

Just take it easy. Keep that on there.

Thank you.

I did.

I do.

There is no glamour in my job.

I don't scare easily, man.
