Rabbit in the psy and remembers the tragedy, tears in her eyes
Rabbit : The medic's name was johnny. He was, uh-- I-I-I had- -I had to wait an hour Before I could go to my grandmother's... so then, um, you know, They took me down to the station, and... And, uh, they gave me otter pops, As--as many as I wanted. all the trucks were there. All the--all the chrome was all shiny, and, uh... I don't know. It was the coolest place I've ever been. It still is.
Psy : How long has it been since you've told anybody this?
Rabbit : Never. I don't talk about it. You know, I... I say my dad died from smoking.
Psy : You lose your father at 13. In many ways, you feel that it's your fault. Let's go back to—
Rabbit : well, it was my fault.
Psy : No. Hold up for a second, okay? Let's go back to that day. The paramedics, the firefighters-- When you looked at them, what did you see?
Rabbit : Um, I saw... Um, uniform, badge. Um... Just some guys trying-- Trying to make-- make things right.
Psy : And you try... To follow their path, their lead.
Rabbit : Yeah, well, I--
Psy : riding in, saving the day,
Psy : Saving the lives, saving... –
Rabbit : Yeah. Sure.
Psy : You know, whatever you can. You want to be that man, that uniform. There's a name for that guy, you know.
Rabbit : What, the hero?
Psy : Jung called the archetype the hero complex, Which is not a disorder. It's not even a problem. For a lot of people in medicine or law enforcement, it works. But, reuben, it's not working for you--
Rabbit : Well, it did. It did work, you know? but, um, I suppose... I-I don't know what happened. I just started screwing up at work and... A-and screwing up in my relationship and... I don't even have a relationship.
Psy : Why do you think that is?
Rabbit : Come on, I'm like the poster child for ptsd.
Psy : Who told you that?
Rabbit : Everybody, man-- Everybody since I got back from the crash. Everyone at work--they're all like, you know, "you got ptsd. You got post-traumatic stress syndrome."
Psy : You don't have post-traumatic stress syndrome. You have post-traumatic issues. From the helicopter crash.
Rabbit : What--what's the difference?
Psy : Well, the crash just ripped open issues From earlier material. Let me ask you a question. Was there a fire when you crashed?
Rabbit : Oh, yeah, lots of fire.
Psy : Were you scared?
Rabbit : Yeah, I was scared.
I thought I was gonna get burned alive.
Psy : Did you feel powerless?
Rabbit : Yeah. I couldn't do anything. They were dying, and I couldn't stop-- They--they were all dead, And there was nothing that I could do to stop it. And I--and I-- and I s-should.
Psy : So you can bring back your father? You can't.
Rabbit : Oh. Wow.
Psy : You can't. That's a simple fact.
Rabbit : Oh, wow, that's--
Psy : No.
Rabbit : That's--that's--that's fresh.
Psy : After your father died...
Rabbit : Yeah?
Psy : You saw what you wanted to be, who you wanted to be.
Rabbit : Okay.
Psy : You should revel in that. Okay, our time's up. But I... I want to take another step further with you.
Rabbit : Doc, I--last thing I need is drugs, okay? That's not my thing.
Psy : Oh. Tell me about it. nope, this is not a prescription. Well, not the kind that you think. I want you to go back to work.
Rabbit : You serious?
Psy : Yep.
Rabbit : What, that's it-- that's it, I'm cured?
Psy : Oh, god, no. you're a mess. Oh, that's not a clinical term, but it works. However, you can go back.
Rabbit : Okay. Okay.

In the ambulance, Nancy called the hospital.
Diana : Hey, Nancy, what's up?
Nancy : Hey, Diana, I need dr. Joe as soon as possible.
Diana : He's not here. What's going on?
Nancy : I've got a 32 year-old white male Who's got a penetrating knife wound to his abdomen. He's actively bleeding. I think the knife must have cut or nicked His superior mesenteric artery. I need to go in and shut down the bleeding.
Diana : No, just bring the patient here as quickly as you can, And we'll handle it in surgery.
Nancy : It's fine, Diana. I-I've done it once before. Dr. Joe talked me through.
Diana : He's not here right now, And you won't do this on my watch. It's out of your scope, and I won't be liable. Just manage fluid replacement and bring him here a.S.A.P.
I'll have a team ready for you.
Glenn and Nancy arrived at the hospital.
Nancy : He crashed. Estimated blood loss-- 1,000 ccs. He was tachycardic, hypotensive en route. Now he's gone into hemorrhagic shock. Yeah, he flatlined on arrival. All right, we got it. Someone gonna take over on this?

Marisa : Ask you?

Marisa : Uh, no. I really don't want to know what's going on in your therapy.
Rabbit : Oh, really?

Rabbit : You don't want to know?
Marisa : I don't need to know the details Of what goes on in that man/child head of yours.
Rabbit : okay. Fantastic. We're done, then.
Marisa : Great. Wonderful.
Rabbit : Good. Great.
Marisa : I mean, it's not like I tell you everything. Um, oil pressure's low - not a biggie. She's an oil burner. It's the bypass valves.

Rdio : Copy that, angel 2.
At the hospital, Diana joined Nancy
Diana : we lost him... Nancy.
Nancy : No, diana. You lost him. If you had let me follow my instincts, Let me do what I do best, Then that man would still be alive.
Diana : Oh, I hate to burst this entitled bubble You like to live in, but... That was not your call. The decision was a doctor's. The procedure was a doctor's. The responsibility was a doctor's. Graduating from medical school Does not qualify you to practice medicine. I sucked it up, took a residency, did the work, And I'm not gonna risk it all For some paramedic who wants to play it both ways. Now, dr. Joe might turn a blind eye, Or worse, encourage you, But... He's 20 years my senior And has a history here. I don't.
Nancy : Yeah. You might want to think about that.
Diana : I'm not gonna back down personally or professionally Because you grew up in this hospital And have dr. Joe wrapped around your finger. Your job ends at those doors, And if you've got a problem with that, You can take up a residency, put on some scrubs, And show us how it's done.
Nancy : I got work to do.
Nancy fate. Later, in the ambulance, with Glenn
Glenn : I guess third time's a charm for our girl Valencia, Huh, Nance? It was a bad call.
Nancy : Yeah, but I could have handled it.
Glenn : Well, I hate to say it, But I think that guy finally got what he deserves.
Nancy : According to dr. Van Dine, It is no longer my responsibility to make calls on my patients. A real ego on that one, Glenn.
Glenn : She's right. You're not a doctor. You're a paramedic, and I'm sorry, Nance, But this is also a guy who just shot his girlfriend. No paramedic could have saved him. So that's the limits to the gig, right?
Nancy : I do not need to hear this from you.
Glenn : I don't know who you're hearing it from, But apparently, you're not listening.

Channing : And there's no more mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, Am I right? You don't get down there And do the old mouth-to-mouth anymore. There isn't any precordial thump - none of that! You just sort of maintain the pressure. It's different. Tell you something else--gps. We didn't have any gps. You poached, you wildcatted, You'd jump on a run- am I right, Rabbit?
Rabbit : That is right, captain.
Channing : You would jump on it.
Rabbit : You tell them!
Channing : It just--it didn't matter.
Marisa : Whoa. I guess you're pretty lucky You slipped back in with captain cal on the job.
Rabbit : Yeah?
Marisa : Yeah. I'm surprised he didn't bust your balls a little more.
Rabbit : Oh, no, we go back, me and captain cal. We're buds.
Marisa : Yeah, you think?
Rich : You guys are lucky you came in. You had three cracked bypass valves. You could have got in serious trouble out there. Probably won't have it fixed till tomorrow. All right. Thanks, Rich.
Rich : Yeah.

Basra : Well, that's good. I didn't. I was having too much fun. Man, I was made for speed. I just wasn't made to last. Dying just never freaks me out... Ever. See, I-I'm one of those guys Who always wants to know what's next... You know?

Basra : I thought you might.
Channing (at phone): Yeah? Well, listen. The next time you find somebody who's in trouble, You give our home team a call, all right? Yes, I know. I sound a lot like him. All right. Good-bye.

Channing : Oh, yeah. I'm having a great time. Yeah, it's been good being in the mix.
Basra : I know, I know.
Channing : In case you haven't noticed, Uh, I've been kind of out to pasture these days.
Basra : Yeah.
Channing : I'm just...
802
00:34:24,399 --> 00:34:28,102
I don't really know what to
do with myself, you know?
803
00:34:28,170 --> 00:34:30,838
Maybe I'm just holding
on to those glory days.
804
00:34:30,906 --> 00:34:34,041
I don't know, but...
What the hell do you do?
805
00:34:34,109 --> 00:34:35,976
you know?
806
00:34:36,044 --> 00:34:38,512
These...These kids...
807
00:34:38,580 --> 00:34:41,215
They don't have a
clue as to who we are
808
00:34:41,283 --> 00:34:44,218
Or what we did in the day.
809
00:34:44,286 --> 00:34:46,353
Basra : I wouldn't be so sure about that.
810
00:34:46,421 --> 00:34:48,556
Come on, follow me.
811
00:34:48,623 --> 00:34:50,224
I want to show you
something. Come on.
Captain Channing leads into the entrance of the center, where the team is waiting for paramedics to cheer.
00:34:55,597 --> 00:34:58,098
Tyler : yeah!
813
00:35:01,770 --> 00:35:02,837
Team : Whoo!
- Whoo!
814
00:35:02,904 --> 00:35:05,773
Tyler : Yeah, I got something for this man.
815
00:35:05,841 --> 00:35:08,642
Captain cal,
I usually freebase these,
816
00:35:08,710 --> 00:35:09,844
But I hear you can drink them.
817
00:35:09,911 --> 00:35:11,645
And, yes, they do make you weird.
818
00:35:11,713 --> 00:35:14,215
Channing : sideburns.
819
00:35:16,084 --> 00:35:17,418
Cheers!
820
00:35:17,486 --> 00:35:19,253
Team : Cheers!
821
00:35:21,623 --> 00:35:26,193
Basra : Boone, you got a second?
I want to talk to you.
822
00:35:26,261 --> 00:35:27,595
Robert : All right, cal,
don't be a stranger.
823
00:35:27,662 --> 00:35:28,863
Channing : Thanks, robert.
824
00:35:28,930 --> 00:35:31,131
Robert : So how you feeling?
825
00:35:31,199 --> 00:35:33,767
Basra : Oh, I still got a few
miles left in me,
826
00:35:33,835 --> 00:35:35,603
But it's time I start to
think about retirement.
827
00:35:35,670 --> 00:35:37,137
Basra : Why don't you talk to captain cal?
828
00:35:37,205 --> 00:35:39,039
Basra : Oh, I don't know about that.
829
00:35:39,107 --> 00:35:41,075
But he did have a recommendation
830
00:35:41,142 --> 00:35:44,979
For who would make an
outstanding captain.
831
00:35:45,046 --> 00:35:49,083
He recommended rabbit.
832
00:35:49,150 --> 00:35:53,687
Cal's a little better at p.R.
Than he is administration.
833
00:35:53,755 --> 00:35:56,123
Boone : All right.
Basra : But seriously...
834
00:35:56,191 --> 00:35:57,958
Cameron, it's a career
path that's open to you.
835
00:35:58,026 --> 00:35:59,159
It's not the box.
836
00:35:59,227 --> 00:36:00,794
But your friends out
there in the department
837
00:36:00,862 --> 00:36:03,464
Could always use a good leader.
838
00:36:03,532 --> 00:36:06,033
- Boone : You know tyler made paramedic?
- Basra : Mm-hmm. I know.
839
00:36:06,101 --> 00:36:07,535
And I know splitting you two up
840
00:36:07,602 --> 00:36:08,903
Probably affects your decision.
841
00:36:08,970 --> 00:36:11,772
You guys are my best team,
but, you know, just like me,
842
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,908
Nothing lasts forever.
843
00:36:13,975 --> 00:36:15,476
So...
844
00:36:15,544 --> 00:36:19,079
What's next?
845
00:36:19,147 --> 00:36:21,382
Boone : You know, I got an idea about that.
846
Nancy Rabbit waits at the end of the day
00:36:24,819 --> 00:36:26,854
Nancy : Hey.
847
00:36:26,922 --> 00:36:29,189
Rabbit : Hey.
848
00:36:29,257 --> 00:36:31,392
Nancy : I'm sorry...
849
00:36:31,459 --> 00:36:33,260
About earlier.
850
00:36:33,328 --> 00:36:35,329
I...
851
00:36:35,397 --> 00:36:37,998
I was pissed that
you didn't tell me
852
00:36:38,066 --> 00:36:42,102
You were coming back to work,
and I-it was selfish.
853
00:36:48,276 --> 00:36:51,312
Rabbit : When I was 13 years old, I...
854
00:36:51,379 --> 00:36:53,180
Burned down my home accidentally,
855
00:36:53,248 --> 00:36:55,182
And my father,
856
00:36:55,250 --> 00:36:58,886
Who was very drunk at the time,
857
00:36:58,954 --> 00:37:02,389
Died in that fire.
858
00:37:02,457 --> 00:37:04,658
So I've been spending
my whole life...
859
00:37:06,795 --> 00:37:10,331
Trying to save my dad,
860
00:37:10,398 --> 00:37:13,100
Who...
861
00:37:13,168 --> 00:37:15,903
Probably was never
really worth saving.
862
00:37:20,208 --> 00:37:23,677
I never told anyone that...
863
00:37:23,745 --> 00:37:26,246
Ever, anyone...
864
00:37:28,783 --> 00:37:32,720
Not even someone I'm seeing.
865
00:37:32,787 --> 00:37:36,023
Nancy : That's what we're doing here...
866
00:37:36,091 --> 00:37:37,725
Seeing each other?
867
00:37:37,792 --> 00:37:40,995
Rabbit : yep. That's what we're doing.
868
00:37:53,408 --> 00:37:57,011
Nancy : Ah... Rabbit, I was...
869
00:37:57,078 --> 00:37:59,380
I screwed up so badly today.
870
00:37:59,447 --> 00:38:02,383
Rabbit : What? Welcome to my world.
871
00:38:02,450 --> 00:38:04,885
Nancy : well, I'm not used to it, okay?
872
00:38:04,953 --> 00:38:05,886
You might be.
873
00:38:05,954 --> 00:38:07,855
I totally flipped out on diana--
874
00:38:07,922 --> 00:38:09,623
Sorry, on dr. Van dine.
875
00:38:09,691 --> 00:38:11,959
Rabbit : Yeah, yeah, tell me, tell me.
876
00:38:12,027 --> 00:38:14,294
Nancy : Well...
877
00:38:14,362 --> 00:38:17,064
she called me out on this patient.
878
00:38:17,132 --> 00:38:20,267
And she was totally right.
879
00:38:20,335 --> 00:38:22,236
She was. She was right.
Boone lunch with his children
880
00:38:34,049 --> 00:38:35,616

881
00:38:35,684 --> 00:38:38,018
Children : hey, mom!

883
00:38:40,321 --> 00:38:42,289
Boone : Sit down. I made you
a royal breakfast.
884
00:38:42,357 --> 00:38:45,759
Sela : You sure did.
What's--what's the occasion?
885
00:38:45,827 --> 00:38:47,428
Boone : Well, I wanted to...
886
00:38:47,495 --> 00:38:49,997
Talk to everybody
before I headed out.
887
00:38:50,065 --> 00:38:51,999
I got offered the captain's job.
888
00:38:52,067 --> 00:38:56,637
Sela : oh, congratulations!
889
00:38:56,705 --> 00:38:58,238
Oh, honey! Mwah!
890
00:38:58,306 --> 00:38:59,673
That's great!
891
00:38:59,741 --> 00:39:03,110
- Boone : Yeah.
- Sela : Congratulations.
892
00:39:03,178 --> 00:39:04,745
Honey. - What?
893
00:39:04,813 --> 00:39:07,014
What's--what's going on?
894
00:39:07,082 --> 00:39:09,983
You look like you
lost your best friend.
895
00:39:11,653 --> 00:39:13,120
What do you think I should do?
896
00:39:13,188 --> 00:39:15,222
I'll do whatever you want me to do.
897
00:39:15,290 --> 00:39:17,591
Sela : Cameron...
898
00:39:17,659 --> 00:39:19,960
I think you should
do what you love.
899
00:39:20,028 --> 00:39:23,397
Just do what you love.
Glenn wakes up next to diana
900
00:39:28,970 --> 00:39:31,238

Basra : I know you had two weeks,
but we pushed it up.
921
00:40:23,491 --> 00:40:24,892
There's a new probie.
922
00:40:24,959 --> 00:40:27,528
Glenn : Well, where is he?
I want to meet the poor bastard.
923
00:40:27,595 --> 00:40:29,696
Nancy : I think he's getting
plates and napkins.
924
00:40:29,764 --> 00:40:31,265
Glenn : For what?
925
00:40:31,332 --> 00:40:32,866

radio : “my woman from tokyo she's so good to me but I'm at home and I just don't belong so far away from the garden. Gross”.

Rabbit in the psy and remembers the tragedy, tears in her eyes
Rabbit : The medic's name was johnny. He was, uh-- I-I-I had- -I had to wait an hour Before I could go to my grandmother's... so then, um, you know, They took me down to the station, and... And, uh, they gave me otter pops, As--as many as I wanted. all the trucks were there. All the--all the chrome was all shiny, and, uh... I don't know. It was the coolest place I've ever been. It still is.
Psy : How long has it been since you've told anybody this?
Rabbit : Never. I don't talk about it. You know, I... I say my dad died from smoking.
Psy : You lose your father at 13. In many ways, you feel that it's your fault. Let's go back to—
Rabbit : well, it was my fault.
Psy : No. Hold up for a second, okay? Let's go back to that day. The paramedics, the firefighters-- When you looked at them, what did you see?
Rabbit : Um, I saw... Um, uniform, badge. Um... Just some guys trying-- Trying to make-- make things right.
Psy : And you try... To follow their path, their lead.
Rabbit : Yeah, well, I--
Psy : riding in, saving the day,
Psy : Saving the lives, saving... –
Rabbit : Yeah. Sure.
Psy : You know, whatever you can. You want to be that man, that uniform. There's a name for that guy, you know.
Rabbit : What, the hero?
Psy : Jung called the archetype the hero complex, Which is not a disorder. It's not even a problem. For a lot of people in medicine or law enforcement, it works. But, reuben, it's not working for you--
Rabbit : Well, it did. It did work, you know? but, um, I suppose... I-I don't know what happened. I just started screwing up at work and... A-and screwing up in my relationship and... I don't even have a relationship.
Psy : Why do you think that is?
Rabbit : Come on, I'm like the poster child for ptsd.
Psy : Who told you that?
Rabbit : Everybody, man-- Everybody since I got back from the crash. Everyone at work--they're all like, you know, "you got ptsd. You got post-traumatic stress syndrome."
Psy : You don't have post-traumatic stress syndrome. You have post-traumatic issues. From the helicopter crash.
Rabbit : What--what's the difference?
Psy : Well, the crash just ripped open issues From earlier material. Let me ask you a question. Was there a fire when you crashed?
Rabbit : Oh, yeah, lots of fire.
Psy : Were you scared?
Rabbit : Yeah, I was scared.
I thought I was gonna get burned alive.
Psy : Did you feel powerless?
Rabbit : Yeah. I couldn't do anything. They were dying, and I couldn't stop-- They--they were all dead, And there was nothing that I could do to stop it. And I--and I-- and I s-should.
Psy : So you can bring back your father? You can't.
Rabbit : Oh. Wow.
Psy : You can't. That's a simple fact.
Rabbit : Oh, wow, that's--
Psy : No.
Rabbit : That's--that's--that's fresh.
Psy : After your father died...
Rabbit : Yeah?
Psy : You saw what you wanted to be, who you wanted to be.
Rabbit : Okay.
Psy : You should revel in that. Okay, our time's up. But I... I want to take another step further with you.
Rabbit : Doc, I--last thing I need is drugs, okay? That's not my thing.
Psy : Oh. Tell me about it. nope, this is not a prescription. Well, not the kind that you think. I want you to go back to work.
Rabbit : You serious?
Psy : Yep.
Rabbit : What, that's it-- that's it, I'm cured?
Psy : Oh, god, no. you're a mess. Oh, that's not a clinical term, but it works. However, you can go back.
Rabbit : Okay. Okay.

Rabbit : Ah, yeah, right. So I got this for the captain, Or acting captain. It's a note from the doctor Saying that I'm, uh, fit to return to work. I meant to drop it off this morning, but, uh...
Channing : You hurt yourself out there, huh?
Rabbit : Yeah. A while ago now, so...
Channing : You're him. Yeah... You're the medic from the Montgomery crash. I'll be damned. Well... It's an honor to meet you.
Rabbit : Thanks.
Channing : Yeah.
Rabbit : Thank you.
Channing : You bet. Thank you.
Marisa (in radio) : Rabbit, where the hell are you? We've got an organ transfer. Let's go!
Rabbit : Right. There it is. I got to go, so if you just pass that along... Um, good to meet you. –
Channing : Of course. Good to see you. –
Rabbit : Take care.
Channing (Read the report of psy): My god. This place is a madhouse.
Glenn and Nancy have been called for an intervention.
A police officer waiting.
Officer : Oh, good. They sent you.
Nancy : What's going on? Dispatch said it was a domestic-violence call.
Officer : It is, but it's not The "black eye and broken bones" kind.
Patient : God, you are dead, bitch! You are dead. You are so dead! I'm gonna kill you.
Valencia : Go to hell.
Patient : I'm gonna kill you!
Valencia : I want you to die!
Patient : I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna come back, And I'm gonna cut you with a knife.
Nancy : Oh, no! We've treated her before. I'll take him. You take her.
Officer : Prince charming over there shot her, and she stabbed him.
Nancy : Can you feel your legs?
Blessé : Yes.
Nancy : Does it hurt when you breathe?
Blessé : Yes, yes, it hurts!
Nancy : You got to move your hands. You got to move your hands!
Glenn : Hey, Valencia, do you remember me?
Valencia : Yeah, I remember.
Nancy : You're the nice one.
Glenn : Listen, can I- can I take a look?
Valencia : He--he shot me. I wasn't gonna take it anymore.
Blessé : Would you shut up? Do you see this? Do you see what she did to me?
Nancy : Yes. Yes, sir, I see what she did to you.
Valencia : Am I--am I in trouble?
Glenn : The cops will take care of that, But, no, I don't think so. Nancy, through and through. I got blood loss that's manageable.
Nancy : Okay, I want you to clean it, dress it, start a line.
Blessé : Hold this for me. - Take it out. Take it out! –
Nancy : I can't take it out. Believe me, you do not want me to do that right now.
Blessé : She's a lying bitch!
Nancy : Glenn, I need you over here.
Glenn : Listen, I'm gonna go over and help Nancy, okay? I'll see you at the hospital, okay?
Valencia : you promise?
Nancy : Glenn!
Glenn : yeah
Nancy : This is a load and go. Get the board.
In the ambulance, Nancy called the hospital.
Diana : Hey, Nancy, what's up?
Nancy : Hey, Diana, I need dr. Joe as soon as possible.
Diana : He's not here. What's going on?
Nancy : I've got a 32 year-old white male Who's got a penetrating knife wound to his abdomen. He's actively bleeding. I think the knife must have cut or nicked His superior mesenteric artery. I need to go in and shut down the bleeding.
Diana : No, just bring the patient here as quickly as you can, And we'll handle it in surgery.
Nancy : It's fine, Diana. I-I've done it once before. Dr. Joe talked me through.
Diana : He's not here right now, And you won't do this on my watch. It's out of your scope, and I won't be liable. Just manage fluid replacement and bring him here a.S.A.P.
I'll have a team ready for you.
Glenn and Nancy arrived at the hospital.
Nancy : He crashed. Estimated blood loss-- 1,000 ccs. He was tachycardic, hypotensive en route. Now he's gone into hemorrhagic shock. Yeah, he flatlined on arrival. All right, we got it. Someone gonna take over on this?
Diana : Yep, we're on it. Thank you, Nancy.
Nancy : Thank you.
Diana : All right.
Nurse : Okay, let's change gurneys.
Diana : On my count. One, two, three.
Nurse : Let's get that gurney out of here.
Diana : Okay.
Nurse : He's not responding.
Diana : Get two units of blood in here stat.
Nurse : I got it.
Diana : Starting cpr. Where's that blood?
Nancy leaves the surgical unit, air disapproving
Rabbit : Go ahead. Ask me.
Marisa : Ask you?
Rabbit : Yeah, go on. I know you want to know what happened with the therapy. Go on, ask me-- whatever you want.
Marisa : Uh, no. I really don't want to know what's going on in your therapy.
Rabbit : Oh, really?
Marisa : No.
Rabbit : You don't want to know?
Marisa : I don't need to know the details Of what goes on in that man/child head of yours.
Rabbit : okay. Fantastic. We're done, then.
Marisa : Great. Wonderful.
Rabbit : Good. Great.
Marisa : I mean, it's not like I tell you everything. Um, oil pressure's low - not a biggie. She's an oil burner. It's the bypass valves.
Rabbit : Oh, I don't think so. You better check that out. Let's--let's go back.
Marisa : Oh, pfft. Nice one.
Rabbit : No, I'm serious. Come on. Contrary to popular belief, I love my life, and I want to stay alive.
Marisa : Are you serious?
Rabbit : Yes, I'm serious. Come on, call it.
Marisa : Okay. Control, this is angel rescue 2. I got a warning light on oil pressure, And I'm heading back to angel rescue To have that checked out.
Rdio : Copy that, angel 2.
At the hospital, Diana joined Nancy
Diana : we lost him... Nancy.
Nancy : No, diana. You lost him. If you had let me follow my instincts, Let me do what I do best, Then that man would still be alive.
Diana : Oh, I hate to burst this entitled bubble You like to live in, but... That was not your call. The decision was a doctor's. The procedure was a doctor's. The responsibility was a doctor's. Graduating from medical school Does not qualify you to practice medicine. I sucked it up, took a residency, did the work, And I'm not gonna risk it all For some paramedic who wants to play it both ways. Now, dr. Joe might turn a blind eye, Or worse, encourage you, But... He's 20 years my senior And has a history here. I don't.
Nancy : Yeah. You might want to think about that.
Diana : I'm not gonna back down personally or professionally Because you grew up in this hospital And have dr. Joe wrapped around your finger. Your job ends at those doors, And if you've got a problem with that, You can take up a residency, put on some scrubs, And show us how it's done.
Nancy : I got work to do.
Nancy fate. Later, in the ambulance, with Glenn
Glenn : I guess third time's a charm for our girl Valencia, Huh, Nance? It was a bad call.
Nancy : Yeah, but I could have handled it.
Glenn : Well, I hate to say it, But I think that guy finally got what he deserves.
Nancy : According to dr. Van Dine, It is no longer my responsibility to make calls on my patients. A real ego on that one, Glenn.
Glenn : She's right. You're not a doctor. You're a paramedic, and I'm sorry, Nance, But this is also a guy who just shot his girlfriend. No paramedic could have saved him. So that's the limits to the gig, right?
Nancy : I do not need to hear this from you.
Glenn : I don't know who you're hearing it from, But apparently, you're not listening.
Radio : Medic 114, request assistance at 568 Barham. Chest pains, shortness of breath. 64-year-old female with cardiac history.
Nancy : Control, this is medic 114. We're on it.
- - -
Channing : And there's no more mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, Am I right? You don't get down there And do the old mouth-to-mouth anymore. There isn't any precordial thump - none of that! You just sort of maintain the pressure. It's different. Tell you something else--gps. We didn't have any gps. You poached, you wildcatted, You'd jump on a run- am I right, Rabbit?
Rabbit : That is right, captain.
Channing : You would jump on it.
Rabbit : You tell them!
Channing : It just--it didn't matter.
Marisa : Whoa. I guess you're pretty lucky You slipped back in with captain cal on the job.
Rabbit : Yeah?
Marisa : Yeah. I'm surprised he didn't bust your balls a little more.
Rabbit : Oh, no, we go back, me and captain cal. We're buds.
Marisa : Yeah, you think?
Rich : You guys are lucky you came in. You had three cracked bypass valves. You could have got in serious trouble out there. Probably won't have it fixed till tomorrow. All right. Thanks, Rich.
Rich : Yeah.

They finally arrive at the hospital
This is janet, 43 years old-- Bedbound, type 2 diabetes. She's having trouble breathing. We have her on... That's mine.

Woman : Thank you.
Boone : oh! - Ah. That's my hand. What is going on around here?
Tyler : What do you mean, "what's going on around here"? We are helping a very scared and sick woman Who happens to have brought her own lunch.
Boone : We're getting too old for this.
Tyler : Too old for-- okay, Danny Glover. Why don't you just admit it to me, huh? Just come out and say it. You want off the rig. You want to ride a desk into your golden years. I get it.
Boone : I have not even made up my mind yet.
Tyler : You have-- yes, you have. Come on, look, I'm your partner, And more importantly, I'm your friend. And look, you don't have to hold back your career for me. Just like I don't have to hold mine back for you.
Boone : What are you talking about?
Tyler : I took the paramedics exam. I passed. Why are you looking at me like that? You didn't think I could pass, did you? I can pass a test.
Boone : Okay. I'm happy for you.
Tyler : So look, they're gonna put me with an e.M.T. When Basra gets back. Sorry I didn't say anything before, but... It's kind of hectic, if you hadn't noticed, So... Really, do your thing, man, what's right for you and Sela. You do you, I do me, right? What else is new? -
Boone has seen Basra
Basra : Hey, boone.
Boone : Hey.
Basra : Good to see you. Yeah, good to see you too. How you doing?
Boone : Ah, you know.
Basra : I need a kidney transplant, But this'll do till they kick me out.
Boone : Mind if I ask you a question?
Basra : No. Shoot.
Boone : What happened?
Basra : Didn't plan.
Boone : Yeah, I know a guy like that. Yeah?
Basra : Yeah?
Boone : Yeah.
Basra : Does he save his money?
Boone : He's like a scrooge.
Basra : Well, that's good. I didn't. I was having too much fun. Man, I was made for speed. I just wasn't made to last. Dying just never freaks me out... Ever. See, I-I'm one of those guys Who always wants to know what's next... You know?
Boone : Yeah.
Basra : I thought you might.
Channing (at phone): Yeah? Well, listen. The next time you find somebody who's in trouble, You give our home team a call, all right? Yes, I know. I sound a lot like him. All right. Good-bye.
Basra : Hey, Cal.
Channing : Hey, Bas. What? You come here to ruin my fun? how you feeling?
Basra : Better. Ready to come back. You having a good time?
Channing : Oh, yeah. I'm having a great time. Yeah, it's been good being in the mix.
Basra : I know, I know.
Channing : In case you haven't noticed, Uh, I've been kind of out to pasture these days.
Basra : Yeah.
Channing : I'm just...
802
00:34:24,399 --> 00:34:28,102
I don't really know what to
do with myself, you know?
803
00:34:28,170 --> 00:34:30,838
Maybe I'm just holding
on to those glory days.
804
00:34:30,906 --> 00:34:34,041
I don't know, but...
What the hell do you do?
805
00:34:34,109 --> 00:34:35,976
you know?
806
00:34:36,044 --> 00:34:38,512
These...These kids...
807
00:34:38,580 --> 00:34:41,215
They don't have a
clue as to who we are
808
00:34:41,283 --> 00:34:44,218
Or what we did in the day.
809
00:34:44,286 --> 00:34:46,353
Basra : I wouldn't be so sure about that.
810
00:34:46,421 --> 00:34:48,556
Come on, follow me.
811
00:34:48,623 --> 00:34:50,224
I want to show you
something. Come on.
Captain Channing leads into the entrance of the center, where the team is waiting for paramedics to cheer.
00:34:55,597 --> 00:34:58,098
Tyler : yeah!
813
00:35:01,770 --> 00:35:02,837
Team : Whoo!
- Whoo!
814
00:35:02,904 --> 00:35:05,773
Tyler : Yeah, I got something for this man.
815
00:35:05,841 --> 00:35:08,642
Captain cal,
I usually freebase these,
816
00:35:08,710 --> 00:35:09,844
But I hear you can drink them.
817
00:35:09,911 --> 00:35:11,645
And, yes, they do make you weird.
818
00:35:11,713 --> 00:35:14,215
Channing : sideburns.
819
00:35:16,084 --> 00:35:17,418
Cheers!
820
00:35:17,486 --> 00:35:19,253
Team : Cheers!
821
00:35:21,623 --> 00:35:26,193
Basra : Boone, you got a second?
I want to talk to you.
822
00:35:26,261 --> 00:35:27,595
Robert : All right, cal,
don't be a stranger.
823
00:35:27,662 --> 00:35:28,863
Channing : Thanks, robert.
824
00:35:28,930 --> 00:35:31,131
Robert : So how you feeling?
825
00:35:31,199 --> 00:35:33,767
Basra : Oh, I still got a few
miles left in me,
826
00:35:33,835 --> 00:35:35,603
But it's time I start to
think about retirement.
827
00:35:35,670 --> 00:35:37,137
Basra : Why don't you talk to captain cal?
828
00:35:37,205 --> 00:35:39,039
Basra : Oh, I don't know about that.
829
00:35:39,107 --> 00:35:41,075
But he did have a recommendation
830
00:35:41,142 --> 00:35:44,979
For who would make an
outstanding captain.
831
00:35:45,046 --> 00:35:49,083
He recommended rabbit.
832
00:35:49,150 --> 00:35:53,687
Cal's a little better at p.R.
Than he is administration.
833
00:35:53,755 --> 00:35:56,123
Boone : All right.
Basra : But seriously...
834
00:35:56,191 --> 00:35:57,958
Cameron, it's a career
path that's open to you.
835
00:35:58,026 --> 00:35:59,159
It's not the box.
836
00:35:59,227 --> 00:36:00,794
But your friends out
there in the department
837
00:36:00,862 --> 00:36:03,464
Could always use a good leader.
838
00:36:03,532 --> 00:36:06,033
- Boone : You know tyler made paramedic?
- Basra : Mm-hmm. I know.
839
00:36:06,101 --> 00:36:07,535
And I know splitting you two up
840
00:36:07,602 --> 00:36:08,903
Probably affects your decision.
841
00:36:08,970 --> 00:36:11,772
You guys are my best team,
but, you know, just like me,
842
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,908
Nothing lasts forever.
843
00:36:13,975 --> 00:36:15,476
So...
844
00:36:15,544 --> 00:36:19,079
What's next?
845
00:36:19,147 --> 00:36:21,382
Boone : You know, I got an idea about that.
846
Nancy Rabbit waits at the end of the day
00:36:24,819 --> 00:36:26,854
Nancy : Hey.
847
00:36:26,922 --> 00:36:29,189
Rabbit : Hey.
848
00:36:29,257 --> 00:36:31,392
Nancy : I'm sorry...
849
00:36:31,459 --> 00:36:33,260
About earlier.
850
00:36:33,328 --> 00:36:35,329
I...
851
00:36:35,397 --> 00:36:37,998
I was pissed that
you didn't tell me
852
00:36:38,066 --> 00:36:42,102
You were coming back to work,
and I-it was selfish.
853
00:36:48,276 --> 00:36:51,312
Rabbit : When I was 13 years old, I...
854
00:36:51,379 --> 00:36:53,180
Burned down my home accidentally,
855
00:36:53,248 --> 00:36:55,182
And my father,
856
00:36:55,250 --> 00:36:58,886
Who was very drunk at the time,
857
00:36:58,954 --> 00:37:02,389
Died in that fire.
858
00:37:02,457 --> 00:37:04,658
So I've been spending
my whole life...
859
00:37:06,795 --> 00:37:10,331
Trying to save my dad,
860
00:37:10,398 --> 00:37:13,100
Who...
861
00:37:13,168 --> 00:37:15,903
Probably was never
really worth saving.
862
00:37:20,208 --> 00:37:23,677
I never told anyone that...
863
00:37:23,745 --> 00:37:26,246
Ever, anyone...
864
00:37:28,783 --> 00:37:32,720
Not even someone I'm seeing.
865
00:37:32,787 --> 00:37:36,023
Nancy : That's what we're doing here...
866
00:37:36,091 --> 00:37:37,725
Seeing each other?
867
00:37:37,792 --> 00:37:40,995
Rabbit : yep. That's what we're doing.
868
00:37:53,408 --> 00:37:57,011
Nancy : Ah... Rabbit, I was...
869
00:37:57,078 --> 00:37:59,380
I screwed up so badly today.
870
00:37:59,447 --> 00:38:02,383
Rabbit : What? Welcome to my world.
871
00:38:02,450 --> 00:38:04,885
Nancy : well, I'm not used to it, okay?
872
00:38:04,953 --> 00:38:05,886
You might be.
873
00:38:05,954 --> 00:38:07,855
I totally flipped out on diana--
874
00:38:07,922 --> 00:38:09,623
Sorry, on dr. Van dine.
875
00:38:09,691 --> 00:38:11,959
Rabbit : Yeah, yeah, tell me, tell me.
876
00:38:12,027 --> 00:38:14,294
Nancy : Well...
877
00:38:14,362 --> 00:38:17,064
she called me out on this patient.
878
00:38:17,132 --> 00:38:20,267
And she was totally right.
879
00:38:20,335 --> 00:38:22,236
She was. She was right.
Boone lunch with his children
880
00:38:34,049 --> 00:38:35,616
Boone : Mommy! Look, mommy!
881
00:38:35,684 --> 00:38:38,018
Children : hey, mom!
882
00:38:38,086 --> 00:38:40,254
Sela : What's going on?
883
00:38:40,321 --> 00:38:42,289
Boone : Sit down. I made you
a royal breakfast.
884
00:38:42,357 --> 00:38:45,759
Sela : You sure did.
What's--what's the occasion?
885
00:38:45,827 --> 00:38:47,428
Boone : Well, I wanted to...
886
00:38:47,495 --> 00:38:49,997
Talk to everybody
before I headed out.
887
00:38:50,065 --> 00:38:51,999
I got offered the captain's job.
888
00:38:52,067 --> 00:38:56,637
Sela : oh, congratulations!
889
00:38:56,705 --> 00:38:58,238
Oh, honey! Mwah!
890
00:38:58,306 --> 00:38:59,673
That's great!
891
00:38:59,741 --> 00:39:03,110
- Boone : Yeah.
- Sela : Congratulations.
892
00:39:03,178 --> 00:39:04,745
Honey. - What?
893
00:39:04,813 --> 00:39:07,014
What's--what's going on?
894
00:39:07,082 --> 00:39:09,983
You look like you
lost your best friend.
895
00:39:11,653 --> 00:39:13,120
What do you think I should do?
896
00:39:13,188 --> 00:39:15,222
I'll do whatever you want me to do.

Sela : Cameron...
898
00:39:17,659 --> 00:39:19,960
I think you should
do what you love.
899
00:39:20,028 --> 00:39:23,397
Just do what you love.

00:40:01,369 --> 00:40:03,036
Pffffttt!
915
00:40:03,104 --> 00:40:04,738

Basra : I know you had two weeks,
but we pushed it up.
921
00:40:23,491 --> 00:40:24,892
There's a new probie.
922
00:40:24,959 --> 00:40:27,528
Glenn : Well, where is he?
I want to meet the poor bastard.
923
00:40:27,595 --> 00:40:29,696
Nancy : I think he's getting
plates and napkins.
924
00:40:29,764 --> 00:40:31,265

925
00:40:31,332 --> 00:40:32,866

Glenn : Oh, you guys are sick.
933
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,014
Nancy : Yeah, I think it's the job.
934
00:40:47,081 --> 00:40:48,415
Diana : It kind of breeds sickness.
I like the blood frosting.
935
00:40:48,483 --> 00:40:50,217
- Marisa : Jeez.
- Diana : I want some of that.
936

Boone : Little action?
Tyler : Yeah.
940
00:41:02,330 --> 00:41:04,464
Boone : I'm gonna beat you anyway.
941
00:41:07,836 --> 00:41:10,504
Tyler : You know, I, uh...
942
00:41:10,572 --> 00:41:12,639
I just wanted to
tell you that, uh...
943
00:41:12,707 --> 00:41:15,142
It's been an honor to ride with you
944
00:41:15,210 --> 00:41:18,078
And to be your friend
these last three years.
945
00:41:18,146 --> 00:41:21,582
Boone : Me too.
946
00:41:21,649 --> 00:41:24,551
Tyler : When do you start...
947
00:41:24,619 --> 00:41:26,320
Captain boone?
948
00:41:26,387 --> 00:41:27,955
Boone : I don't.
949
00:41:28,022 --> 00:41:29,990
I asked Basra to, uh...
950
00:41:30,058 --> 00:41:33,493
Let us ride as dual
medics for a while.
951
00:41:33,561 --> 00:41:35,262
Tyler : Wait, you--
952
00:41:35,330 --> 00:41:36,763
You and me.
953
00:41:36,831 --> 00:41:38,131
Mm-hmm.
954
00:41:38,199 --> 00:41:39,666
Two paramedics in a rig.
955
00:41:39,734 --> 00:41:41,501
Boone : One-on-one, man.
956
00:41:41,569 --> 00:41:42,769
Tyler : That's badass.
957
00:41:42,837 --> 00:41:44,238
That's like-
-like- like we're equal.
958
00:41:44,305 --> 00:41:46,607
Right? Like ebony and ivory.
959
00:41:46,674 --> 00:41:47,908
Boone : Yeah.
960
00:41:47,976 --> 00:41:49,977
Tyler : Like you drive...
Every once in a while.
961
00:41:50,044 --> 00:41:52,679
Boone : Okay, let my hand go, bro.
962
00:41:52,747 --> 00:41:54,548
No, man, I'm not-- I'm not driving.
963
00:41:54,616 --> 00:41:55,916
That's, uh...
964
00:41:55,984 --> 00:41:57,351
Tyler : It's like a white thing, isn't it?
965
00:41:57,418 --> 00:41:59,620
Boone : Yeah.
966
00:41:59,687 --> 00:42:00,654
Nancy : Probie?
967
00:42:00,722 --> 00:42:02,322
More coffee.
968
00:42:02,390 --> 00:42:03,657
Rabbit : All right, all right.
969
00:42:05,059 --> 00:42:06,193
Tyler : Wait a minute.
970
00:42:06,261 --> 00:42:07,828
Rabbit : I'm on disciplinary probation.
971
00:42:07,896 --> 00:42:10,330
So anyone else here
calls me probie,
972
00:42:10,398 --> 00:42:12,399
Except her,
I'm gonna kick your ass.
973
00:42:12,467 --> 00:42:13,500
- Boone : Probie!
- Tyler : Okay, sorry...
974
00:42:13,568 --> 00:42:15,669
- Boone : Probie.
- Nancy : You gonna kick his ass?
975
00:42:15,737 --> 00:42:17,671
Rado : Warehouse fire,
south san francisco.
976
00:42:17,739 --> 00:42:20,674
All available rigs
provide backup to sffd.
977
00:42:20,742 --> 00:42:22,509
Tyler : Got our name written all over it.
978
00:42:23,945 --> 00:42:25,479
Rabbit : Ah...
979
Tyler : 00:42:25,546 --> 00:42:28,382
Why don't you take a piece to go?
980
00:42:28,449 --> 00:42:30,183
- Diana : I wanted to.
- Glenn : Hey, thank you.
981
00:42:30,251 --> 00:42:31,818
- Basra : Good job.
- Glenn : Thanks, Bas.
982
00:42:31,886 --> 00:42:33,053
Rabbit : Congratulations, glenn.
983
00:42:33,121 --> 00:42:35,088
Glenn : Thanks, probie.
00:42:38,159 --> 00:42:42,562
Don't eat it all.
Save some for later.
986
00:42:42,630 --> 00:42:43,964
See you, rabbit.
