Leone!

Liam, what are you doing here?

Well, there's a big
fire headed this way,

they needed volunteers,

so I figured, you know...

- Sharon, listen...
- Uh...

Ever since that campaign fire,

- I've thought about you every day.
- Oh, my God, Liam, shut up!

- Why? What's wrong?
- Liam. Is that it?

- And you are?
- Just the guy wondering why

my wife is yelling at you

like I've only heard her yell at me.

Oh.

You stayed married.

- What kind of question is that?
- Who is this guy?

You didn't tell Vince about me?

- Tell me what about him?
- Okay, this is Liam.

- We cut line together on the campaign fire.
- And?

- And nothing.
- And we got close.

- Dude!
- It's the truth.

Okay, you need to leave.

- Come on.
- No, no, no, no.

- Come here.
- No, he's gonna stay...

- Get your hands off me.
- ... and he's gonna tell me why he's here.

Trying to break up a happy home?

Well, from everything Sharon tells me,

is it really a happy home?

Ah, here we go.

Oh!

Wow, Sharon,

he does have a temper, doesn't he?

- Just getting started.
- Oh!

Come on!

For real. Come on.

- Break it up.
- Come on. Aw, seriously?!

Your overnight stay is up.

You're free to go, Chief.

You keep looking at me
like I owe you something.

I'm not the one who you
took wedding vows with.

You're gonna want to stay
away from my family, man.

- See you later, Darryl.
- Take it easy.

Who was that clown?

I had no idea he was coming.

What does he know about us, and
why have you never mentioned him?

Hey, hey, hey.

He's a volunteer on the strike team.

There's a fire headed this way.

So, what, you guys
were just yuckin' it up

- the whole time you were gone?
- Yeah, that was it.

- That's what we were doing.
- Trash-talking our marriage, yeah?

No. Hey, you know what, you already know

that you were the one that
I wanted to be talking to

- on that fire.
- Tell me, right now...

Did you do anything with that guy?

No.

The campaign fire was therapy for me.

It's over, I'm back.

I did not request Liam as a souvenir.

I will make sure he leaves.

That's a weird answer.

I'm gonna walk to the station now.

There you go. Yeah, almost.

Little bit more arch.

Whoa.

Here you go, another ball.

Ah, families visiting.

That was always my
favorite part of camp.

What's going on, bro. How's it going?

What's up, man? It's good
to see you. How you been?

Good to see you.

- How you been?
- All good, good.

You easing up on those weights?
You looking a little small.

You been eating all
those snacks at 42, dude.

- You're getting soft on me.
- Soft? You kidding me?

All right, maybe just a little bit.

Listen, man, I just wanted to
be the first one to tell you

that, uh, something went down
with your parents at Smokey's.

Yeah, no, I heard a little bit about it.

Something about my dad getting pissed

'cause some guy was hitting on my mom?

Yeah, but it wasn't just some guy.

It was someone she worked pretty
closely with at that campaign fire.

And Vince spent the night in jail.

What?

Yeah, he got into a fight.

There were a couple cops having
dinner at Smokey's. They broke it up.

All this is on me.

If I hadn't gotten myself
sent back to prison,

none of this would've happened.

Oh, come on, Bode.

Hey, yo, Manny, you're back.

Ha-ha!

Hey, what's up, fellas?

What's going on? Give
me a hug, come here, come here.

Oh, it's so good to see you boys.

Damn.

- Eve.
- Yo.

Yo, hey, could we, could we go on a hike

or, um, like, chainsaw some
stuff, cut firewood, something?

Yeah, in, like, a couple hours.

You heard about your parents.

Yeah. Yeah, I know my dad
spent the night in jail.

E-Everywhere I go, every move I make,

it's like I leave this, this
trail of disaster in my wake.

- I need... I need to do something right now.
- Okay.

Well, let's channel it
towards the job, all right?

- I'm at a ten right now.
- Okay, so take ten.

Your parents are grown.

They can take care of themselves.

You got to check your anger.

Deep breaths, let's go.

There you go.

One.

Nice.

- Two...
- No, no.

That's not gonna work. I-I'm
way too heated right now.

All right, all right, all
right. Let's take a hike.

Um, let me put my boots on.

Oh...

The guys juiced your boots?

One.

Two.

This is lavender.

Mmm?

Sophisticated,

not overpowering.

Mmm. Whatever happened
to, like, chocolate?

Or, like, vanilla?

Vanilla's good.

The last I checked, I
wasn't getting married

at Chuck E. Cheese.

Wait, so does that mean that
you're not gonna serve pizza?

You're probably not even
gonna have games, huh?

Ah, that's all right. Stop it.

I'm probably busy that day anyway.

This is Diego's favorite,
and Mullie agrees.

Mullie? Mullie gets a vote?

Mullie wasn't late.

Sorry. I had to swing by
camp so I could tell Bode

about Vince and Sharon.

Can we not talk about my ex

while I'm sampling my wedding cake?

You remember after
me and your mom split,

how I used to react every
time you brought her up?

You would explode.

And now?

Now she's coming to your wedding.

I'm so glad you called
her. You know why?

'Cause I had to let
all my anger at her go.

What's your point?

All this Bode baggage that you're
carrying around, mija,

it's heavy, and the
sooner you let it go,

the lighter you're gonna feel.

Okay, Yoda.

We still have cakes to try.

- Come on.
- I'll show you Yoda.

Me thinks you should
have chocolate at wedding.

That sounds like the Cookie Monster.

Hey.

Did you have some time to think?

Mostly thought about going to bed alone

at night for the past three months.

And going to the store
to buy milk for two

out of habit, and
having the milk go bad.

I missed you, too.

Then I started to think about you and me

on campaign fires, eating sandwiches

we heated up on the tailpipe.

Sleeping under the stars.

Now I have the gift of
picturing you do that with him.

I definitely shared my
feelings with another man.

You do remember that you
kissed another woman, right?

I didn't realize we had a
betrayal scorecard going.



Requesting you to keep that road
open until the fire's on you.

All right, everybody,
listen up, the Belenus fire

has officially hit Edgewater.

It's threatening homes up this mountain,

and it's headed towards us.

Recent winds have made
a mess out of this road,

and that's a problem because

it's the only way out for civilians.

Now, our rigs can roll over this stuff,

but a sedan's likely
to pop a tire, or worse.

And it's all just fire fuel
bringing the blaze our way.

So our mission today...
keep this road open.

Three Rock, clear everything you can.





All right, everybody, get some, be safe.

All right, let's go. Come on, y'all.

- Move out.
- Go.

- Y'all heard me.
- You all right?

Thank you for asking,
instead of giving me

"dirty cheater" stares,
like everyone else in town.

- Well, you definitely don't deserve that.
- Thank you.

A man I trusted as a friend

told me he wanted to sleep with me.

And he told my husband

and our neighbors simultaneously.

You're my friend. I don't
want to sleep with you.

Do I need to explain that?

Please don't.

Is that regulation footwear, Cap?

I'm not laughing,
guys. That wasn't cool.

'Cause if you got time
to critique my wardrobe,

you got time to clear the road.

You can show 'em what
Three Rock does best.

Let's go, gentlemen.

Here.

There you go.

- Jake.
- What's up?

Hey, Gen say yes to the paternity test?

Man, she barely said anything.

Look, we got a shrug and a
grunt and then a slammed door.

- 12-year-olds, you know?
- Hmm.

Bode. Find the work, man.

Yo, this captain thing is no joke, man.

Really?

Well, I love it. Yeah.

I'm gonna have more of
a voice at 42 than ever.

And I can make more money.

Plus, I also get to order
around Sharon and Manny.

- Come on, now.
- All I get is motor oil in my boots.

- I'm sorry.
- No. I don't need your sorrys.

But I do need suggestions
on how to win them over.

Cap.

Greencrest needs us to
evac a couple civilians

who've got fire at their heels.

Oh, how far up the mountain?

About ten minutes further than we want.

Uh, take Sharon and Perez.

Get back as soon as you can.

I'm gonna be having eyes on you

with this schmancy
drone that Luke got us.

Hmm.

Perez, Leone, we're up.

Okay.

Should have eyes in the sky as soon

as the drone operator guy gets here.

Uh, that'd be me.

I'm the drone operator guy.

No. No. Get me somebody else.

I think you should show some respect.

I volunteered to be here.

I mean, it's not like Cal Fire
drone operators grow on trees.

You know.

Okay, fine.

Find somebody else.

Hey. This the guy?

Stay out of it. All right?

Fly your drone.

Why? All I'm getting is abuse.

'Cause my mom's gonna
be driving that engine

that your drone's gonna protect.

- You're Bode.
- I am.

You won't break this family.

But you will help keep it safe.

Fly the drone.

I call her Lucia.

Patron saint of sight.

Yeah, we don't have to talk.

We do, actually.

See, I maneuver Lucia,

and you tell me where to send
her and what you want to see.

So we're gonna keep Sharon...

keep your wife safe.

Okay?

Clear all the brush from the road.

Mind that water main, you guys.

Come on, work fast.

Remind me not to mess with you, man.

Wouldn't want to be
on the receiving end of that Pulaski.

You good?

Just focus up.

We got to show this chief
what Three Rock can do, like Eve said.

Why?

So we can make Cap look good out here?

When back at camp, she's all
cozy in her office all the time?

I'm in my office all the time

because of this dumpster
fire camp that I inherited.

I'm on the phone with Sacramento

just to keep this place open.

Now toss that. Make
yourself useful. Let's go.

Let's get this fuel off the road.

Come on.

Let's go! Don't stop! Keep it moving!

We're reaching the end of the road.

Our evac is right around this bend.

All right. Show me my engine.

We got eyes on you now, 1591.

Liam, you're the drone pilot?

Yeah. Ain't that fun?

With your husband's utmost cooperation

and guidance, yeah.

Vince, whoever said there were

two people here awaiting evac,

they did not paint a full
picture of what's going on.

Well, I'm sure you can relate.

Thanks, Vince.

Fire's on the way, guys.
Wet down those buildings.

Hey, uh...

you guys were supposed to leave by now.

Huh. You all are great
at leaving, aren't you?

We're not going anywhere.

Cal Fire's left our houses
to burn too many times.

Well, even with this little bit of rain,

it still is a tinderbox here,

and we prioritize life over property.

And we're not abandoning our homes.

- We're saving them.
- Oh...

Civilians are gonna
fight fire without us.

Listen, if you didn't want us here,

then why did we get a
call to get two people?

- Nobody called you.
- I-I called.

Mom always said you'd be
the first one in a lifeboat.

Well, she always said you'd
be the reason I'd need one.

- Zachary's hurt.
- Our brother

is apparently the second traitor.

- I'm no traitor.
- No.

You're an idiot who fell
off a roof prepping for fire,

- and now your eye looks like a poached tomato.
- I'm fine.

None of you are fine,
with this fire coming.

Perez, treat Zachary.

- Uh, the rest of you, do you have vehicles?
- Yeah.

- We're packing.
- Perfect.

I want you to drive
those out of here now.

That's a hard pass.

You gonna ignore me? Fine.

But I'm going to continue to insist

that you guys leave before
you lose that opportunity.

Everybody, back to work.

Grab more hoses, follow me.

Jake, that fire's getting closer.

- You rolling out?
- Yeah.

We're trying, Chief.

All the way back, about 50 feet or so!

Keep it up, fellas.

Manny, you done with your tool?

You sure you want to pick
up something I've put down?

I wouldn't want you to inherit
another dumpster fire from me.

Hey, I'm sorry you overheard that.

You like that story, don't you, Eve?

"Manny screwed up Three Rock."

How long are you gonna
coast on that excuse?

- Okay, so we're doing this?
- You shouldn't.

- Not here.
- No, no, you think I stole Three Rock.

That's what, that's what it is?

I think you were waiting
in the wings to replace me.

And why did I
need to replace you, Manny?

'Cause you got fired.

- I didn't do that.
- I got heat from up the ladder,

but I also always had the
respect of my guys, Eve.

- Can you say the same thing?
- Well, I was focusing

on helping the crew,

not being buddy-buddy with them.

I-I can't see out of that eye.

It looks like orbital
compartment syndrome.

Which means there's blood
building up, creating pressure.

You could lose your eyesight.

Oh, thanks for the enlightenment.

Hey, Zachary, this isn't a joke.

Most people are happy
when Cal Fire shows up

- to take 'em to the hospital.
- Well, we're not most people.

We have a history with
you, and not a good one.

I'm just disinfecting it.

Ah!

You know, if we evacuated every time

Cal Fire told us to, we'd be homeless.

You know, the McMansions always

get your attention while our homes burn.

So we need to take care of
ourselves, you understand?

Whoa, whoa, what-what
are you doing with that?

I have to numb it in order to treat it.

- Here?
- I have no choice, Zachary.

I have to relieve pressure

if you want to keep your eyesight.

Don't move.

Don't move.

All right.

- Ah...
- Okay.

Is that it?

Zachary, I'm going to
relieve pressure from your eye

- and save it.
- Oh, God.

I bet you the hospital looks way better

right about now.

You don't think every
choice I ever made was for them?

My guys respect me because
I walked in their shoes, Eve.

- We'll, I think it's a great thing that I haven't.
- No, enough.

You both need to take ten.

U-Umar, that's too high!

Umar!

Bode, get the spineboard.

Man down!

Help.

- Umar!
- Umar, we're coming.

Fire's running chimneys
up on all sides of you.

It's got two heads now.

Jake, we're losing
light. You got to evac.

- Patient's ready for transpo.
- No, no.

- I'm no traitor.
- Whoa, whoa!

- What is it?
- It hurts.

May I examine you?

You may have a broken rib and
you might have punctured your lung.

We have to go.

- No, no...
- I'm not asking.

Laura, Laura, we are out of time.

This fire will be on us
in a matter of minutes.

Laura, you need to hear me.

Our parents rebuilt this
place from the ground up

last time it b*rned, and I
won't let it happen again.

- I don't know what to do anymore.
- Jake.

We're out of time. He's
got a punctured lung,

possible internal bleeding.

Internal bleeding?

You have a very limited window now.

It's now or never.

No, we're not going.

Zachary, I'm sorry
I called you a traitor.

Go with them to the hospital.

Laura, I'm not leaving without you.

Okay. Laura, you have the vehicles

to get your family out of here.

Our engine will lead you.
Our drone will guide us.

Please take the help.

- It's our home.
- Come on!

Your parents didn't rebuild
this for you die here.

Laura.

Laura, you do not have the time.

Go with them to the engine.

- Thank you. Go.
- Everyone, head for the wheels.

Come on, Gabriela.

- Gabriela, come on, with us.
- Come on, guys.

Oh, no!

Those are our wheels.

The fire's moving fast,
Sharon. It's almost at your backs.

Those were our way out.

What are we gonna do?

You'll take us on your
engine, though, right?

Okay, listen, Laura, I
need you and your people

to stage up at the engine, okay?

- Everybody, move, move!
- Go, go, go, go...

All right, I count 13
people including us.

That'll put the
engine beyond maximum capacity.

No way can we get all
those people onto the cargo.

And there's not enough
time for two trips.

- And we can't leave anybody behind.
- No, we wouldn't do that.

So, what do we do?



- Leg stable, Manny?
- Stable.

I got a two-inch
laceration on his head.

Let me get some gauze. Glove up, Bode.

- Thank you.
- Is he breathing?

It's very shallow.

And I just met his kid today.

I'm gonna make sure he sees him again.

Let's go ahead and get some oxygen
on him, so he can make it to the ER.

- Where's that ambulance?
- Command,

this is Captain Eve Edwards.

I need an ambulance, stat.
It's for one of our own.

Let me get that oxygen.

- Cap.
- Yeah?

Cap?

He's talking to you.

Hey, Umar, you hang in there, okay?

Captain Edwards is gonna make
sure you're well taken care of.

ETA two minutes, Three Rock.

Ambulance is two minutes away.

- Let's take him down.
- On it, Cap, you got it.

On my count. One, two, three.

Up.

Pull the whole chair out.

- We need the space.
- Give me your hand.

Excellent. JAKE: Zach. Come on.

Zachary.

You. I can fit more people in here.

Come on.

- That's it. Move, move.
- Go, people. Let's go.

Pile in there. Let's go, let's go.

- Squeeze in.
- Go, go, go.

- Squeeze.
- Watch your leg.

- Get in, get in.
- Squeeze.

Get as tight as possible,
as tight as possible.

Squeeze in there.

You guys got to squeeze
in as tight as you can.

Come on. As tight as you can.

We won't fit.

I'm not hitting the gas
till both of you are inside,

so figure something out.

Hey, we'll be seeing you back
at camp in no time, all right?

When we wrap up here, I'll
be with you at the hospital.

Cap...

He's talking to you now.

Thank you.

Load him in.

Let's go.

Hey, we got spot fires!

I got spot fires here, Chief.

I don't know how much longer we
have before the fire takes the road.

Get cutting. We got to make sure
the engine beats the fire here.

All right, Three Rock,

no one else is going
down on my watch today.

- All right?
- Got it, Cap.

Work smart. Eyes open.

Just a little longer before
we get everyone evacuated.

- Got it.
- Let's move.

- Got it, Cap.
- Let's go, let's go.

- Let's go, boys, let's do it.
- Nice, gentlemen, let's move!

What did you come up with?

Nothing.

There's no more room.

Sure there is. Just not inside.

We're riding on top.

Gabs, grab that SCBA.

No, no, no, no.
That fire would eat you alive.

Listen to me. You take my place.

You have more years as engineer
than anyone else on this crew.

- No, I'm not going to do it!
- As your captain, I need you to drive

as soon as we're secure with
our fire shelters on the roof.

Thank you! Let's go. Move.

Come on, come on.

The fire is at the road.

That engine needs to move now.

Drone Station 1,

this is engine 1591.

- You've got to go.
- I have 13 lives on the line

and two firefighters on the roof.

On the roof?

Jake! Gabriela! Pack in there tight!

Are you ready?

We're ready.

Sharon, I got you.

You better.

Or my husband's gonna k*ll you.

Here we go.

Sharon, I need you to keep
going straight for 30 seconds

until you hit Claremont.

Go.

Drive faster.

Heading south on Main.

Advise.

We are tracking you out of Easton.

The smoke is getting thicker.

I can barely see past
the windshield now.

You have to give me something.

She's nervous.

Well, can you blame her?

You got to snap her out of it.

Make her laugh.

Make her laugh? What
are you talking about?

You said we had to talk
in order to make this work.

- Yeah.
- This is me talking.

Make her laugh.

Hey, Sharon, so this is
nothing compared to that time

we found the Mojave rattlesnakes

in our packs.

Do you remember what I named them?

No.

It was, uh...

Snake Shelton and Hissy Elliot.

Ugh!

Adorable.

I'm doing my best here, okay?

I know.

Sharon, Jefferson Road is b*rned out.

Y-You cannot stay on Easton.

Give me an alt, Drone Station 1.

Cut hard to the right, Sharon.

- Cut to the right?
- Cut hard to the right.

Ah. You overshot it.

You have to give me the
commands earlier, then.

Jake, what is your status?

We're hanging in there,

but it's heating up.

I don't know how much
longer this shelter can hold.

We got it. No, we're good, we're good.

Let's move, fellas, fire's
getting closer to the road.

You really had Umar's back.

You sound surprised.

Eve, what's your situation?

'Cause over here this drone's showing me

fire chasing my engine,
I've got two firefighters on the roof.

Well, spot fires are
climbing up on us, Chief,

and I don't know how much
longer we can hold it off.

And who'd you say is
riding on top of the engine?

Jake and Gabriela.

Keep going, fellas!

Move! Move! Move!

Drone Station 1, am I close?

I really wish you
hadn't overshot that turn.

That's not helpful! Come on!

Are you trying to k*ll my wife?

Sharon. Listen to me.

You're not cleared to guide the engine.

I am Incident Command.

I clear myself to do what I need to do.

Sharon, can you hear me?

Vince?

Vince, we are surrounded by the fire

and not getting out of it.

And I have lot of scared people in here.

I know.

Take a breath, okay?

Just you and me now.

I'm right next to you.

Okay.

There's an opening, a left,
coming in about 30 seconds.

Now, y-you're gonna want to hit

the, the gas pedal hard, but...

don't do that, okay? Just
resist that urge and just-just tap

the pedal with your toes.

Okay? Nice and easy.

I'm right here.

Yes.

Left now.

Easy, easy.

Okay, fire shelter
in that bag, it's aluminum.

Put it up against the window.

Vince, I'm losing my windows.

- Sharon, hard right now.
- Okay.

Did I get it? Did I make it?

Yes. That's my girl.

Jake and Gabriela's shelters
cannot take this heat for long.

You have to get us out!

Sharon, cut right again.
Cut right, right now.

Now, now, now!

Did I get it?

Yeah, you did.

You're on the quickest
route out of there.

Now keep your foot to the floor.

Keep going, fellas!

Keep going!

Hey, we're out of time.

Fire's here.

It's overtaken the road.

What do we do, Cap?

We retreat. Three Rock, pull
back to the command tent.

Stay safe.

Move! Move! Move!

Let's go!

All right, we got fire moving in

- from the east and west, it's gonna box us in.
- Chief.

Fire's jumped the line.

We lost the road.

We got to move this command
center out of the hot zone.

From what Sharon said,

engine can't sustain any more fire.

Well, she's gonna need to
drive through it anyways.

Not with Jake and Gabriela on the roof.

You don't get to tell me
what my wife needs to do.

I'm trying to save her life.

Well, you're not very good at it.

If today's any indication.

Do you copy?

We are out of time!

Vince! Bring me home!

Jake, Gabriela, can you hear me?

Do you copy?

Vince, Jake and Gabriela
aren't answering anymore.

We can't drive through any more fire.

We got to find another path
for the engine around the fire.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news,

but this road really is
the only way out of there.

That's the truth.

That's why we worked so hard
to keep the fire off of it.

Our hoses aren't gonna cut it?

How about we get the water drops in here

and we let them do what they do?

Water drops not gonna arrive
in time to save the engine.

Water's already here.

- What?
- What?

The water's here.

There's a water main back here.

- What if we break it?
- Wait, wait, wait.

You want to break open
a public water main

that's beyond our control?

Few heavy strikes with
my axe and it'll blow.

Uh... Would flood the road.

Yeah, and it could cause the engine

to slide off the road
and into more fire.

Or it could k*ll the fire.

And save an engine full
of civilians and our crew.

As the already deeply unpopular guy,

I got to say, this
could go really sideways

really fast, guys.

Once the water starts
flowing, you can't just

turn it on and off like a faucet.

He's right.

It's not the perfect pitch.

But it's the only pitch.

We got to try something.

We'll go with Bode's plan.

Let it loose.

Let's move.

Yeah, you're right. You are unpopular.

We're going to do rotating hits.

On my count.

You start. One.

Two. Three.

Vince, we can't drive
through any more fire now.

Get me out of this fire!

We are running out of time!

Get back, get back.

- Ready?
- Yeah.

Ah, yeah. We made it.

Gabriela.

- We actually made it out?
- Yes.

We did it.

Let's get you to a medic. Let's go.

That's good work.

Sharon, you saved us.

Well, from what I
understand, it was Bode.

Mia.

Water drops are on their way,

we got to get out of here. Let's go.

- Hey, Eve.
- Hey, Manny.

What you doing?

Just had to get some clean boots.

What's up?

Uh, listen, about earlier...

It's hard.

You know? Watching someone run my crew.

It's like someone else
wearing my clothes, or...

driving my car.

You forgot who I am, Manny.

You... doubted my motives,

- you questioned my integrity...
- Eve, Eve, Eve.

I'm trying to apologize to you.

- I'm sorry.
- And on top of that,

had a terrible morning.

My guys put motor oil
in my boots, and that...

It's not funny.

No, I didn't think it was very funny

- when it happened to me, either.
- Mm.

But now that it's someone
else, I get the joke.

Right.

Look, Eve, it's... it's
not that you're new.

And it's not that you're not me.

And it's definitely
not that you're a woman,

whether you believe that or not.

It's that...

look, at the end of your
shift, you get to go home.

They don't.

- Yeah.
- You see your friends,

you see your family,
and you come back here,

you suit up, you boss them around.

But that's the gig.

Yeah, so,

what do you do?

Oh, you know, you just show
'em you're on the same team.

Including having a little bit of fun.

Yeah, man, but how?

I don't know. Look, look.

- They put motor oil in your boots, right?
- Yeah.

Well, then, put some mustard
in their gloves or something,

on a slow day. I don't know.

Just show 'em you can play their game,

and you're gonna win.

All right.

We good?

Solid.

Hey.

Thanks for meeting me.

Well, honestly, I was
a... I was a little shocked

when you... when you texted.

I was ready to pack up
and head out of here,

as far away from Edgewater as possible.

Want to head over to a
booth? Little more privacy.

No. It's not that kind of visit.

- Uh...
- Here you go.

I'm good, thanks.

Sorry. I'm... I'm getting whiplash here.

Oh, did you think I was,
uh, inviting you here

to sneak out behind my husband's back?

Well, why else would
you be here, Sharon?

To understand how we could
be on such different pages

about what I truly
thought was a friendship.

I-I don't have friends that
keep me up into the night

when every inch of my
body wants to sleep,

but I can't 'cause all I want
to do is talk to you more.

Hey, we were on an adrenaline wave.

And what I shared with you,

and what you shared with
me about your marriage.

I mean...

Sharon, you said it was over.

- I didn't invent that.
- No. No.

I said I was afraid it was over,

meaning that isn't something
that I want to happen.

So, you're just gonna...

you're just gonna pretend
everything's perfect here?

I don't know how to explain this

to someone who's never been married.

Living with someone is really hard.

And sometimes it gets so bad,

you think the relationship is over.

And when it's not,

it's kind of magical.

That's when the real work begins, and...

that's where I'm at.

Today, when I thought
you wouldn't make it out,

all I could think of was

how I never told you...

how special you are to me.

All I could think of was
that I needed to live...

so I could kiss my
husband one more time.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Sharon?

See you next apocalypse?

I don't think so. Take
care of yourself, Liam.

Mmm.

I can't believe you're
hungry for a burrito

when you almost d*ed inside one today.

It makes me feel like I truly won.

And I respect that.

Yo, does, um... Bode
seem different to you?

Different how?

It's kind of like
your, um... your anime,

fantasy, epic,

love story, action stuff?

Well... well, first of all,
it's not "stuff." It's art.

Right. So, from what I've watched,

it seems like there's
always a point in the story

where the hero has to train to
get to the thing that they want.

- Yeah.
- And Bode wants something badly.

And I'm supposed to train him,
but I don't know what it is.

And Manny was always
the... the Bode whisperer.

What do you think?

You know what I told
Bode that made him fight

to get out of prison?

No. That was between y'all, right?

I told him a secret.

And I'm going to tell
you now, because...

well, it sounds like it's
gonna help him do good time.

Okay, I'm a little scared, but go ahead.

You know Genevieve Maisonette?

Cara's little sister?

About that...

Well,

how was your date?

It is anything but a date.

Thank you... for trusting me

to set him straight.

It's done, and I...

I still don't know
how I let this happen.

You don't?

You mean, him falling in love

with the smartest,
hottest girl in the world

doing what she does best? I do.

No. Not that.

I don't know how I got so far from you,

from us.

And then, today, your
voice was the only thing

that could guide me out of the dark.

I'm here. I am ready.

I'm so ready to fight for us.

Let's fight later.

Bode?

You got a sec?

So, you just...

ended up riding outside
the engine through the fire?

That's crazy.

Tell me everything.

I can't tell you everything anymore.

Okay.

Bode, I've been working so hard
ever since you've been gone.

Fighting fires, becoming a medic.

And now that you're back,

we're gonna run into
each other on calls.

Right.

And this baggage between us...

it can't come with.

I'm getting married.

I know that. I know.

I'm happy for you.

If you really mean that,

then you have got to stop looking at me

like you looked at me
earlier today at work.

Like...

like what?

Like I'm yours.

I was glad that you
didn't die in a fire today.

That...

That's what that look was.

I mean...

Bode?

I-I mean it. I'm...

You and Diego are starting
your life together.

I have big life plans, too.

Oh.

You met a girl.

Ever since she came into my life,

she's the only thing I can think about.

That's the best thing ever, Bode.

You deserve someone

that makes you forget about
everybody else but them.

You, too.

Goodbye, Bode.
