Hello! I hope all is well !!
Here is an ask about Cruz Ramirez!
What do you think she likes most about Radiator Springs? Who do you think are her closest friends there?
OUUUHHH..
im not sure if shes too in depth with radiator springs. i think she probably still lives at home in texas and only visits radiator springs once in a while - but her favourite part is the racing museum with information on all the drivers her grandfather loved. she gets to learn more about what aspect of the sport he liked through the history of the people he loved watching on tv, and she feels more connected to him, even if she didnt know him long. sometimes she wonders if he’d be proud of her, if he’d be amazed at how far shes come — a female, latina driver in the top ranks of the sport he got her into — and sometimes she distantly thinks about how amazing it would be to be able to show him her success, to get him tickets to one of those big races he promised to take her to one day..
out of the citizens, shes 100% closest to lightning and sally. shes like the child they never had. otherwise, she probably really adores red and LOVES the flowers he’s planted — his plant knowledge is something she could only dream about having. she already knows a little bit of sign language, shes super well educated like that, so she can have short conversations in sign with red and shes managed to bring a new kind of energy to those conversations that not even RED knew was possible — and hes the one who grew up using sign!

I hope this might make sense for someone else (esp other lesbians lmao) but I can so easily write for a favourite male character (ie Spencer Reid) cause it’s like that’s what I would do as a lesbian for another woman.
But to write about another character I’m attracted to?? (ie any character Ruby Cruz plays) impossible, I’m too into masc women to be able to write them cause it’s what I’d want them to do for ME. So I’d rather read about it, does that make sense?
And I’m LOVING all the Hazel & Kit fics but my lil lesbian brain craves more and I’m like “maybe I could write one myself”… no, no I couldn’t I’m to gay for that. I want to read the content and sit giggling and kicking my feet over lesbian shit, yknow?

Next gen headcanons? 🤔
Like, Jackson, Cruz, Tim, Danny, Chase, and Ryan?
Oh boy, that's a few characters. Alright, strap in then. Probably also gonna throw in Bubba because he's my favourite non-main next gen <3
(Humanised, as always)
(Quick disclaimer for this one, none of these are supposed to reflect on the irl racers that gave their names and voices to them - I'm treating these characters as though they're entirely fictional and not based on/inspired by real people. I make my HCs literally just based on Vibes (and RPs))
Jackson Storm:
6'1 and fit AF. Clearly spends a lot of time in the gym toning his body and muscles. He is male model levels of gorgeous. Physically flawless black man <3
Short black dreadlocks dyed blue at the ends.
Aromantic (female-leaning)bisexual.
Autistic.
Ray knew he was autistic before Jackson even knew himself, and is the reason he even got diagnosed in the first place.
One of his most common complaints is still about the reflections of the sun glinting in his eyes. The loud noise of the track still gets to him occasionally, but he has special earplugs to help him deal with it.
Can usually be seen drinking a can of IGNTR's flagship energy drink before a race. It helps him calm down and focus in. His sponsors love it, for obvious reasons.
Any time he's on camera, he acts calm and cool but internally he's freaking out. If they ask something he doesn't expect, he visibly tenses up and flounders for a second as he tries to figure out what to say, even if it was a simple question.
Doesn't do fan meets or signings unless he absolutely has to. Even then he tries everything he can to get out of them.
His physical attractiveness makes his already poor attitude even worse. Doesn't know how to talk to people, but gets all the praise and attention he could ever want online.
Yes, he posts photos of himself on various social media. He wasn't sure at first, but Ray convinced him to start shortly after his debut race, hoping that it would help reassure him and give him a bit of a confidence boost. Naturally, it went a little TOO well...
He's a gamer through and through. In any downtime he gets, he's still topping the leaderboards on just about every popular racing game you can play online. He also enjoys the occasional game of CoD and will verbally rip anyone to shreds if they try to come at him.
DUBSTEP. He loves it. If his skull isn't rattling from absolutely filthy, grimy bass, he's not interested.
So, of course, he has to have an incredible sound system that's probably worth more than the average person's car.
He doesn't watch anime. (Stop asking him if he does) Most of his entertainment comes from Twitch streams.
He streams himself playing Super Corsa 4 any chance he gets. Which isn't often with the packed NASCAR schedule, but he tries his best. His user is UrStormChasing
Still doesn't get along with Tim after their rivalry in training and isn't very good at pretending he does either. Their crew chiefs have to make deliberate efforts to stop them from running into each other before they get into their cars.
Cruz Ramirez:
5'5 with an athletic build. She is a Latina woman with visible abs and she deserves them gdi.
Side-parted brown hair a little shorter than jaw length, perpetually kinda wild looking.
Chaotic lesbian hours!
ADHD
Literally cannot sleep at night without a big, milky mug of coffee.
It's not normal to wake up and go for a run before even having breakfast?
She's teaching Lightning to use social media more regularly (for better or for worse). His homework is to send her a funny meme or video that he found that week.
The result of this can sometimes be catastrophic. She'll never be able to unhear him uncertainly attempting to use outdated slang.
Almost every race, there's someone complaining about how she doesn't weigh enough and it's unfair to the rest of them. So she forces them to watch as race officials put extra weights in her car.
Has cussed Danny out in Spanish across Pit Road and will do it again if he carries on-
Is probably the only person on Team Dinoco that is actually nice to Cal and doesn't try to tease him. They get along well.
Tim Treadless:
6'0 with a broad frame and light muscle tone.
Tanned skin and tousled brown hair.
Straight ally.
Just call him Mr. Charismatic, everyone loves him.
Everyone except Jackson, that is. Jackson is the only person who brings out his anger to the point of wanting to throw hands.
Has a wife and a baby, bc of course he does.
One of those guys some people hate for being irritatingly perfect. Usually people that don't actually know him.
Has type 1 diabetes and a bad nut allergy.
Was pulled out of a race at the last minute when he went into anaphylactic shock - the entire race was almost stopped when people started to whisper that it was foul play. The race went on, but the only reason for Treadless' absence was that he had to be pulled for "unforseen medical issues".
Some of the other racers still blame Jackson, who actually had nothing to do with it.
Danny Swervez:
5'10 and fairly slender. Not a lot of bulk to him.
Tanned skin (he's Latino) and short black hair.
Cishet male.
This man is FULL of himself. What an attitude.
Genuinely a good racer, but not many people like him.
He's not a good guy. He's given Cruz some trouble for being a woman, though after she embarrassed him by publicly cussing him out in Spanish, he's learned to keep his unpopular opinions on her to himself.
Isn't exactly what we would call "faithful".
But hey, at least he doesn't cheat on the track (smh)
Has just as little respect for the older racers as Jackson, but is less vocal about it.
Is very bitter about Jackson and Tim being more popular than him, yet still does nothing to change himself for the better.
Has at least attempted to physically fight with other drivers that messed with him on the track several times.
Chase Racelott:
5'9 with a build somewhere between Danny and Tim.
Pale skin and dirty-blonde hair.
Straight ally.
Generally a pretty likeable guy. Not as well-loved as Tim, but he has a good amount of pretty dedicated fans.
Makes jokes about being single/available.
Has pretty average performance on the track, not great, but not poor.
Fairly high energy, he gets along well with Cruz.
Probably one of the best with kids. Has a lot of younger fans because of how he interacts with them during meets and signings.
One of the few who will try not to leave until he's spoken to every fan who wanted to meet him, no matter how long it takes.
Often seen hanging around with Ryan - the two of them cause some pretty good natured trouble together, often involving pranks on the other racers.
Ryan "Inside" Laney:
5'11 with a broad build similar to Tim.
Mixed race (¾ Caucasian, ¼ African American), with short black hair.
Closeted bisexual.
Friendly, but not really a standout character as far as the fans are concerned.
Kind of cocky, but in a cool way.
Has a girlfriend who travels with him.
Agent of chaos when he spends too much time with Chase. Don't turn your back on him.
Bubba Wheelhouse
Absolutely massive 6'2 gentle giant
Another gorgeous black man (fight me), his skin tone isn't quite as dark as Jackson's
Closeted homosexual
Has a fake relationship with a lesbian woman who's actually just his best friend (the racing world is scary and the US South probably wouldn't love an openly gay driver)
Kids ADORE him. Him and Chase are the drivers with the most kid fans.
Throws a football around with fans over the catch fence during rain delays (this one is based on the real Bubba Wallace bc its wholesome af)
Gets asked all the weird gay questions by everyone in the friend group. (Ex. "Is it gay if...?" "What is X actually like?")
Legit just trying to mind his own business, he doesn't want any part of drama or rivalries.
Occasionally finds himself roped into girl talk if the guys have their S/Os around. They're very excited to include him. He's too polite to decline.

“In two days all I will know of love is what I can imagine… and what I can remember.”
Aaliyah Amrohi takes the first completed artwork of my new series depicting my favourite characters from film, tv and across other media. This was my very first digital art piece in ProCreate.
Aaliyah is one of the ✨ dreamiest ✨ characters and totally enamoured me from the very moment it was made clear that she was much more than your average rich girl. Brought to life so eloquently, it was hard not to relate to her feelings of being trapped within her own culture and her desire to find love. Thank you Taylor Sheridan for giving us The Lady and The Lady Tramp. We never see love stories like this and to find this within Lioness was such a pleasant surprise!
I am unabashedly claiming Aaliyah as a lesbian character because her game with Cruz was a sight to behold and too beautifully thirsty to belong to any other group! Aaliyah and Cruz 4ever.

Mini Book Reviews Again Again
Look I know I did one of these five minutes ago but I still have 20 books to get through here so bear with me okay.
Down Among the Dead Men by Peter Lovesey, book 15 of the Peter Diamond series - I don't normally read crime novels and this book reminded me why. It was a lot of police propaganda in places, a lot of nonsense in others, and overall just a bit boring. There was also a bit where someone being a lesbian was a major plot twist like??? what decade are we in??? (tbf it was written in 2015 but that's no excuse!). So yeah, didn't like this one much.
Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor, book 2 of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series - Well, if I could marry a book series then this would be the one. It's beautifully crafted and beautifully written, and the worldbuilding in this one is incredible. I love the characters and the conflict and I can't quite articulate specifically how or why without giving too much away but seriously everyone should give this a go, I've even given it to my mum to read.
Starve Acre by Andrew Michael Hurley - Oh boy was that one weird. It's not very long, but it doesn't need to be. It was cool and creepy and ominous in so many ways, and I think it would be good for people who like more gothic horror than slasher horror. I'll never look at a hare the same way again. TW for off-screen child death though. Like almost the whole book is focused around a couple dealing with the loss of their son.
The Mark of Athena by Rick Riordan, book 3 of the Heroes of Olympus series - What can be said that hasn't been said already? Pretty sure all of Tumblr already knows that this man is a brilliant author and that these books are amazing so I'm not going to elaborate here.
Fractured by Teri Terry, book 2 of the Slated series - Very early 2010s dystopia but still very good. I really do very strongly believe that part of the reason these books never majorly blew up the way The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner did is because they're set in Britain, and obviously weren't marketed as much. I'm enjoying them a lot. They're not the very best things I've ever read in my life, but I would have devoured them as a teenager if I'd gotten around to reading them back then.
Forget Me Not by Alyson Derrick - Cute little lesbian love story. I enjoyed it well enough but it wasn't my favourite. It made me laugh in places, but I was never really invested in the relationship between the girls unfortunately. However, I was in a major reading slump at the time I read it, and was really stressed with work and life and stuff so maybe that was why I bounced off it.
Songbirds by Christy Lefteri - I'm not normally one for books that feel like they'd win a lot of awards (I like Blue Bloods for crying out loud!) but this one was very good indeed. I can't say I enjoyed it because the subject matter was really depressing, but it was very well written and had a lot to say about it's topic. It's about a live-in maid called Nisha who works for a woman in Cyprus but goes missing in chapter 1 and the rest of the book is her partner and her employer desperately trying to find her but struggling because basically no one else cares. It was a very powerful book in all honesty.
Rhosllannerchrugog, Johnstown, Ponciau, and Penycae: A Collection of Pictures by Dennis W. Gilpin - Just me out here reading some local history. Nothing that would really interest anyone who doesn't know the area, but it was fun to see places I know today as how they looked in the past.
The Dissolution of Valle Crucis Abbey by Derrick Pratt - Again, local history. It was a bit dry, as expected, but still fun to learn more about the local area.
Masquerade by Melissa De La Cruz, book 2 of the Blue Bloods series - Again, complete trash, but for some reason I love it. I think it's partially nostalgia because I first read these back in 2010 or so when I was 11 or 12 and loved them then, but sometimes I think it's because we all need something to just switch our brains off to. Some people like reality TV, some people like Ali Hazlewood, I like Blue Bloods. It's all the same.
The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow - This is one of those books that you get from the library and enjoy so much you immediately wan't to go out and buy your own copy of. Like I feel like I'm going to be incomplete if I don't have this book in my life forever. A truly beautiful world-hopping story about finding yourself and where you belong, and it has the 'book within a book' thing going on like in The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern. Can't say too much without giving it away, but it's very good and I recommend it.
Revelations by Melissa De La Cruz, book 3 of the Blue Bloods series - It's Armageddon time baby! No not really but there is a little bit of a reckoning. That all obviously comes secondary to the terrible romance thought because of course it does and that's what we're all here for anyway. It's still thoroughly problematic and off the wall, but hey, 2000s vampire novels were never going to be sensible. Cringe is dead give me more vampires.
The Van Alen Legacy by Melissa De La Cruz, book 4 of the Blue Bloods series - Oh look, more vampires! Originally, and for most of the year, I decided not to read too many books form the series too close to one another in case I got burnt out on the series, but Blue Bloods made me break that because I was having too much fun with them. I'm officially caught up to all the ones that were out when I first read the so form here on out I'm in uncharted territory. I'm hoping it's still all just as trashy.
The House of Hades by Rick Riordan, book 4 of the Heroes of Olympus series - Again, we all know Rick Riordan is god so I won't spend too much time on this one but I will say that I think that one is my favourite of the series. The bits in Tartarus are really well done and I still love all the characters and everyone on earth should read this book series.
The Dark Archive by Genevieve Cogman, book 7 of the Invisible Library series - This is the second to last book in the series so things are really ramping up here and getting everything in place for the finale, and it managed to do all that whilst also telling a satisfying contained story. We've got another new main character, the return of an old villain or two, and adventure to be had all round. I'm very much looking forward to the next book.
Ask the Passengers by A.S. King - Another lesbian romance one I didn't really enjoy. I think I'm getting too old for coming of age stories like this. Or maybe this one just wasn't very well written. It was okay for the most part, but I didn't like the love interest at all and it seemed a lot of the time that the main character didn't either, which isn't ideal for a romance. Also, there's a running thing where the main character will watch aeroplanes flying overhead and 'send her love' up to the passengers and then we'd cut to a passenger on the flight for a few pages as they magically feel overwhelmed with a sense of love that helps cure all their troubles or whatever and I thought that was silly and I didn't like it. Not the worst thing I've ever read though.
The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan, book 5 of the Heroes of Olympus series - A cracking finale, even if I do still find the fight with Gaia a little anticlimactic. I love getting to hear from Reyna and Nico for the first time; they're some of my favourite characters. Honestly just a 10/10 series.

❤️💛💚💙
❤ - unpopular opinion about the movies
honest to god. i think lightning was completely valid in how he acted in cars 2 😭 AND I HAVE A REASONING. HEAR ME OUT.
first of all, im personally not a huge fan of this movie. i think all of it is extremely out of character (for every character involved), but i have a specific spot in my heart for lightning in this film because really, i understand where hes coming from. if you went to a foreign country with your best friend, and instead of being respectful, they acted like a total douche the entire time - as well as screwing you up during the event THEY SIGNED YOU UP FOR (with knowledge that mater could have simply turned off his headset instead of ignoring lightnings multiple requests to clear the line) i would be angry too! and i think that the moral of the story being “act like youre at home Everywhere” is such a harmful thing to tell people 😭
also strongly dislike how mater pushed a romantic relationship onto holley, who is quite literally decades younger than he is and was very Not into it ..
💛 - unpopular opinion about a main character
i think that the concept of cruz’s grandfather being a race fan should have stayed in. this probably isnt unpopular, but genuinely it would have made her as a character so much less.. flat.. it would have given her REASON to wanna be a racer - to make her grandfather proud. giving her a reason would have been much better than the just Out of Nowhere fight, and in that concept lightning and her make up right then and there (plus, instead of him being an ass and debating whether he was right or not like he did in the movie, his anger in the concept comes from a place of just.. genuine stress, adrenaline, and probably being overwhelmed in the moment.)
💚 - unpopular opinion about a side/background character
i dont really understand the hype around the wgp racers? like this isnt a jab at anyone but i just cannot grasp it 😭 my ooh ooh ah ah brain cant understand enjoying characters with no lines or screen time. i applaud the people who do love them though i cannot fault u for having silly little guy brainrot
although one of my favs is a bg character with like 3 lines 😭 cal my son i adore you
💙 - unpopular opinion about a ship/ships in general
i have a list of all the ones i dislike…. i am not a multishipper i am #salqueen4life … please dont get mad at me…
cruz/jackson - cannot stand this ship because that is a lesbian and a sexist, asshole man 😭
lightning/jackson - i hate this ship with a passion i am so . so sorry. first of all, there is a Major age gap? jackson is a rookie (although not as young as mcqueen was, still pretty young - in my head hes about 21?) and second. enemies to lovers fills me with rage it is not my cup of tea. since it says keep it civil i Will but…… augh
and. i am so very sorry. lightning/chick. - this is due to personal lore research, lightning being eighteen in cars 1 (and chicks being about 40+) really, really throws me off? and im not accusing anyone of anything because again, everyone has different lore ideas, but i personally dislike it because 18/40 is Odd to me in my personal cars human au 😭 . also again, enemies to lovers has gotta be one of my least favourite ship tropes.
this isnt one i hate but seriously francesco/lightning shippers are the funniest people in the world i love u guys. i dont ship it myself, but every time i see people talking about them being together all i can think of is the scene in the end of talladega nights where ricky kisses jean and when jean goes in for a second one ricky is like no.. no one was enough..

Favourite music: Erik Satie, Claude Debussy, Serge Gainsbourg, Sergio Mendes, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus, Herbie Hancock, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Dusty Springfield, Nina Simone, Carpenters, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Kate Bush, Cocteau Twins, Björk, Talking Heads, The Cure, Boards of Canada, Joy Division, New Order, The Velvet Underground, Massive Attack, Portishead, Manic Street Preachers
Also enjoy art/painting, aesthetics, fashion, memes, food and (maybe too much) drink. Lots more that I can’t think of at the moment so maybe a sequel in the future when I feel like being inward-looking again?

It must be tag day because I've been tagged by both @kissporsche AND @aikinn ♡
Fave colour: Purple, especially a soft one.
Currently reading: The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton for an American Lit course (it was beautifully written and painful, not a light read) and I just discovered and got caught up on Blood of the Pheonix by FREY on Ao3 which is a delightful—also painful—KinnPorsche transfiguration fic.
Last song: Becoming Insane by Infected Mushroom according to my spotify.
Last series: Spent the day last week introducing a friend to What We Do in the Shadows. We made it through most of season 1! I actually don't consume a ton of media... Sorry a lot of this might feel like repeats of my other tags. Oops.
Last movie: See the above! We started with the movie.
Currently working on: My WIP list is Endless. However actively shuffling between: An incredible crack photo-manip-set that I'm going to subject everyone to shortly, a PWP of lesbian Kinn and Porsche (it's my first attempt at narrative writing beyond creative writing in high school and is sitting at 1.5k words) based off my doodle, my gift and two treats for the KP Gift Exchange which are unfortunately somewhat under wraps (but 3 pieces means 3 main couples. I'm branching out! That's vague enough, right?), and this stupid paper for my lit class.
Share 10 different favourite characters from ten different pieces of media in no particular order, then tag 10 people 🎥🎬📺
1. Tay (Kinnporsche)
2. Nie Huaisang (The Untamed)
3. Guillermo de la Cruz (What We Do in the Shadows)
4. Ji-Hoo (Love and Leashes)
5. Fragile (Death Stranding)
6. Urbosa (Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild)
7. Lucifer Morningstar (Sandman)
8. Jim (Our Flag Means Death)
9. Zoe (Firefly)
10. Hannibal (TV version)
I'm tagging YOU. Whoever you are reading this, you're tagged. I want to know what you're working on, who or what you hyper fixating on, and what you're listening to! No, really really I'm serious.
#i need to keep better notes on the media i consume#i had to think way too hard#have i read/watched/played more than 10 things in the past decade?#tag youre it#just me#too many wips under wraps 🥲#not enough to scream about#if you tag me or accept my tag mission#we're definitely friends now ♡

FROM THE MOUTHS WITH NO TONGUE by ester cuervos
a re-introduction !
✧ genre: murder mystery, low fantasy ✧ category: adult ✧ pov: second person retrospective in a loose journal format ✧ witches, full latine cast, small town you can’t escape from, horror movie one-by-one deaths, dumbass young adults, lgbtqa+, spanglish, found family, an all-girls boarding school ✧ cw: mental illness, complicated families, suicide, bigotry, death and gore ✧ themes: collective paranoia, “people fear what they cannot understand”, outcasts ✧ tone: eerie, suffocating, whimsical, wary, anxious
a b o u t : small town princesa gloria exists in a liminal space and the warnings about not going into the forest at night are to be believed. marjorie de los ángeles is the youngest member of the local witch family and aside from eating animal tongues she’s just another student of the local all-girls boarding school. senior year isn’t the optimal time to find a classmate hung in the forest. marjorie is faced with the mystery of who is causing these seemingly random murders, all in an effort to take the blame off herself and her family. she is not doing the smart thing and leaving until she convinces her grandmother to do so as well or until she finds the culprit.
c h a r a c t e r s: ✧ marjorie de los ángeles cruz. she/they. demisexual. dresses like the kid whose mum let them dress themself on the first day of kindergarten. has adhd. witch. ✧ archie randall rojas. he/him. gay. marjorie’s best friend and baby daddy (long story). dancer. “talk shit, get hit”. was practically adopted into mj’s family. ✧ lorelai jarros quintana. she/they. lesbian. marjorie’s girlfriend and classmate in boarding school. artist. “hold my earrings i’m gonna kick this bitch’s ass”. ✧ dulce maría de los ángeles ugalde. she/her. aromantic. marjorie’s grandmother. empty nest syndrome so will adopt just about everyone. witch. ✧ ivonne de los ángeles ugalde. she/her. bisexual. marjorie’s mother. hasn’t spoken to her mother in a few years now. thrift store owner. witch. ✧ andrés cruz novillo. he/him. demisexual. marjorie’s father. was taken in by dulce maría similar to archie. “my wife is a bitch and i like her so much”. witch. ✧ xander cruz duarte. he/they. asexual. marjorie’s favourite cousin. half-witch with an acute psychic awareness (to the point of it being worrisome).
aesthetic: spells in your kitchen, animal bones spread on your bed, 2am and watching movies with a new bowl of popcorn, wearing pyjamas all day, a chill in the air that never leaves, digging up graves, steps that follow you in the forest, that contagious baby laugh, skinny love, a mismatched outfit that somehow works, your reflection in an empty studio as you dance, prayers in spanish, crying on your best friend’s shoulder without being judged, saying “i love you” platonically, a family you build yourself, big wreaths of wildflowers, lampposts in the blue hour, pastel skies, a quiet neighbourhood street, butterflies crowding around a dead body, garbage bags that glow from the inside
playlist: boreas / the oh hellos ; c’mon / panic! at the disco ft. fun ; master pretender / first aid kit ; wolf / siames ; the bones / maren morris ft. hozier ; emergency / nothing but thieves ; witches / daughter ; which witch / florence + the machine ; beautiful creatures / illenium ; eat you alive / the oh hellos ; bottom of the river / delta rae ; o death / kate mann ; exodus / ruelle ; permanence / bears in trees ; hide & seek / amber run ; i talk in my sleep / the crane wives ; you / keaton henson ; fast car / tracy chapman ; meet me in the woods / lord huron ; rose / the oh hellos ; in the woods somewhere / hozier

CHICAGO FIRE – ONE MINUTE (S01E04)
[ambo door shuts]
Gabby Dawson: Why didn’t you call Alexa back? I liked her.
Leslie Shay: You know the joke - what does a lesbian bring on a
second date?
A moving van.
Gabby Dawson: You have major commitment issues.
Leslie Shay: Yeah, yeah.
Gabby Dawson: Can you please put this out in front. I’m gonna
take this stuff to the kitchen.
Leslie Shay: All right. I’m not carving this thing.
TV: Some developing local news now…
Peter Mills: Yo, do we have any spices around here besides salt
and pepper?
[tv in background]
Otis Zvonecek: What else do you need besides salt and pepper?
Gabby Dawson: [groans]
Peter Mills: Wow.
Gabby Dawson: This is for the trick-or-treaters. And heads up…
Halloween is Chief Boden’s favourite holiday.
Peter Mills: [chuckles]
Gabby Dawson: Oh, I’m dead serious.
[plastic bag rustling]
Otis Zvonecek: We can see where you’re putting that.
Gabby Dawson: Hey, nobody touches the candy. We ran out last
year.
Christopher Herrmann: I graciously donate my in-laws television,
and I cannot get a piece of candy?
Gabby Dawson: [scoffs]
I keep coriander, cumin and bay leaves in the back
cupboard.
Um, I used up all the saffron last time I cooked.
[alarm beeps, PA buzzes]
(Over PA): Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3, Ambulance 61.
Warehouse fire, 6620 Oak Park.
[sirens wailing, horns honking]
[squad door slams shut]
Matt Casey: This is the old Triskin warehouse.
Kelly Severide: Looks like the door’s been pried open. Could be
squatters inside.
Chief Boden: Smoke’s already coming out pretty quick. We don’t
have long on this one.
(into radio) Engine 51, give me a 2 ½ in the front
door, cover the search team. Truck 81, open up
the back, vent the skylights.
Kelly, give me that primary search.
Kelly Severide: Yep.
Matt Casey: Cruz and Otis, raise the aerial and take out the
skylights. Herrmann and Mills, let’s open up the
back and get in there.
Let’s go.
[indistinct chatter]
Kelly Severide: Smoke’s bad. Get the doors down fast.
Matt Casey: Strike.
[door creaking open]
Matt Casey: Done.
Christopher Herrmann: Going left.
Kelly Severide: Mind your step.
Call out.
Christopher Herrmann: Fire department! Anyone in here?
[indistinct chatter]
Chief Boden: That smoke’s turning ugly.
Kelly Severide: Fire department! Anyone in here?
Christopher Herrmann: There’s someone in the back!
Let’s go!
Peter Mills: Hey guys, over here.
Fire department! Anybody here? Call out!
Firefighter: I got you. Come on.

Victim 1: [coughing]
Gabby Dawson: We got him.
Peter Mills: Fire department!

Peter Mills: Unh!
Chief Boden: (over radio) All companies, evacuate the building.
Christopher Herrmann: Come on, Mills, let’s go.
Chief Boden: It’s gonna flash.
Matt Casey: Herrmann and Mills still inside?
Chief Boden: Yep.
(over radio) Repeat, evacuate immediately.
(into radio) Come on, now, guys. We gotta get out of
there. Let’s go.
Come on, men.
[coughing]
Christopher Herrmann: Come on, Mills.
Peter Mills: There’s a guy still inside. I saw him.
Chief, give me one more minute to go back in there.
Chief Boden: No, it’s over. No more minutes.
Peter Mills: H-He could be alive. Just give me one more minute. I
know I can get to him. I know.
Chief Boden: You’re not going anywhere. This building’s about to
flash.
Peter Mills: Chief, I could get…
Chief Boden: Enough!
(into radio) All officers, take count of your firefighters.
Nobody goes back in.
All members out of the collapse zone. Everybody,
back up.
Back up.
Matt Casey: Let’s go.
[indistinct radio chatter]
Radio Dispatcher: Company 16 and Truck 22…[continues
indistinctly]
Roger that 25, Ladder 47, Truck 34…[continues
indistinctly]…we’re all clear
[fire explosion]
[glass shattering]
Chief Boden: (into radio) Fire up the water cannons.
[water spraying]
[indistinct chatter]
- Title Screen -
Lee Henry Herrmann: C’mon! Let’s go!
Cindy Herrmann: Boys!
Boys!
[indistinct shouting]
Christopher Herrmann: Hey, give her back the wand. Now!
Hey, hey. Here you go.
Ah.
Lee Henry Herrmann: Man.
Christopher Herrmann: I thought you were gonna be a superhero.
Luke Herrmann: I am. I’m a superboy.
Christopher Herrmann: That’s the whole costume?
That’s pretty half-assed.
Cindy Herrmann: Christopher!
Christopher Herrmann: What? He can’t put on a cape?
Cindy Herrmann: He doesn’t have a…
[kissing sound]
Christopher Herrmann: All right.
I walked in on your dad again…on the can.
Cindy Herrmann: [sighs]
Christopher Herrmann: The man refuses to lock the door.
Cindy Herrmann: And you refuse to knock.
[sighs] This came.
Christopher Herrmann: Aw, crap.
Luke Herrmann: Were you there, daddy?
Christopher Herrmann: Yep, and we kicked that fire’s butt.
Love you, okay?
Cindy Herrmann: Bye.
Christopher Herrmann: Bye.
Luke Herrmann: You can’t leave. I put a force field around the door.
Christopher Herrmann: If you had a cape on, I might believe that.
Come on, I’m late.
Luke Herrmann: No.
Christopher Herrmann: Lukey, hey.
I told you, you don’t have to worry about
me so much.
Luke Herrmann: What if you get hurt again?
Christopher Herrmann: I’ll get better, just like last time. And like
you did, when your bike went over.
Us Herrmanns’, we’re tough bastards.
Luke Herrmann: [whispers] You said bastards.
Christopher Herrmann: [whispers] Don’t tell mom.
[sighs] Okay.
[whispers] Come on. Come on buddy.
Luke Herrmann: [whispers] Okay.
Christopher Herrmann: I love you buddy.
cutscene
Kids: Happy Halloween!
Chief Boden: Happy Halloween.
Guess what? After school, I’m gonna break out a
bottomless bowl of treats.
Gonna come back and get ‘em?
You’ll bring ‘em back?
Kids & Adults: Yeah.
Chief Boden: Go on, then. Get out of here and come back.
Y’all look great.
Kids: Thank you!
cutscene
Peter Mills: Yo Lieutenant, can I ask you something?
Matt Casey: Sure.
Peter Mills: In general, when Chief says, ‘everybody out of a
building now’, how much time do we really have?
A minute? 30 seconds? What?
Matt Casey: Don’t beat yourself up, Mills.
Peter Mills: See, the things is, I was closest to the victim. I-I could
see him, you know? I…
Matt Casey: When Chief says “now”, he means now. Not 30
seconds, not any seconds. Got it?
Peter Mills: Yeah. Yeah, I figured. Thanks.
cutscene
[locker door slams]
Kelly Severide: Ah!
[punches locker]
Jose Vargas: Morning Lieutenant.
Kelly Severide: Morning.
Jose Vargas: You get hurt the other night?
Kelly Severide: Mind not turning the locker room into a chat room?
Jose Vargas: Yeah.
cutscene
Joe Cruz: Just take the damn piece of candy already. She won’t
notice.
Mouch: I’m not climbing onto the counter.
Joe Cruz: Hey, did you guys hear that Casey’s gonna…testify
against Detective Voight’s son?
Otis Zvonecek: Apparently, Dawson’s brother says it’s a risky
move, and…Voight’s a dangerous son of a
bitch.
Mouch: I wouldn’t put my ass on the line like that.
Uh Lieutenant, you need any help with the Detective
Voight situation, you let me know. When I became
union rep, they…sent me a bunch of brochures.
Matt Casey: I’m good, thanks. Just need to testify at the
arraignment, once it’s set.
Christopher Herrmann: You see this crap?
Peter Mills: Why is it crap?
I just mean that that’s what happened, isn’t it? So…
Christopher Herrman: Where is the headline about how we busted
our humps and saved three guys, huh?
Chief Boden: Okay, everybody, listen up.
Today, our very own Jose Vargas transfers from Truck
to Squad.
As of now, he’s officially a member of Rescue Squad
3.
[clapping & cheering]
All: Whoo!
Mouch: Big time Vargas.
Otis Zvonecek: Make sure to bow next time you walk by.
Matt Casey: Best of luck.
Jose Vargas: Thanks, Lieutenant.
Nicki Rutkowski: Hey, Lieutenant Casey, I just saw your car out
front.
Something happened to it.
Matt Casey: What the hell?
Joe Cruz: This is why I can’t stand Halloween, man. The punks,
they go wild.
Matt Casey: My gym bag got lifted.
Christopher Herrmann: Right in front of the station.
Call the cops. File a report.
Matt Casey: Yeah, I should.
[alarm beeping, PA buzzes]
(Over PA): Truck 81, Squad 3. House fire, 220 South Kilbourn.
[sirens wailing]
[squad door shuts]
Kelly Severide: [into radio] Fire is out on arrival. Hold on incoming
companies. We’ll do a little overhaul.
You okay, ma’am?
Lady 1: I’m fine.
I must have dropped a cigarette or something. I was
cleaning out the garage. So stupid of me.
Kelly Severide: Well, good job putting it out.
We were here a few weeks ago. Fire in your car,
parked out front.
Lady 1: The car is old.
Kelly Severide: Two fires in two weeks?
Lady 1: Bad luck always comes in streaks.
Man 1: Yo, yo, afternoon officer.
Kelly Severide: I need to check inside, make sure the fire didn’t
get into the adjoining wall.
Lady 1: All right.
[train passing by]
Kelly Severide: No heat. That’s good.
Huh.
Lady 1: Me and my late husband.
Kelly Severide: How long were you married?
Lady 1: 45 years, till he passed.
Kelly Severide: Wow. What’s the secret?
Lady 1: I never asked.
Kelly Severide: [chuckles]
Lady 1: Just counted my blessings every day [chuckles]
[door opens]
Capp: She say what happened?
Kelly Severide: Mm-mm.
[laughing in the background]
cutscene
Christopher Herrmann: What the hell happened?
Leslie Shay: It went out.
Mouch & Otis Zvonecek: What?
Chief Boden: It just need a new cord. Nobody panic.
Leslie Shay: Go ahead. Try it.
[remote clicks]
[applause on tv]
Otis Zvonecek: Yes.
Chief Boden: Ah.
Otis Zvonecek: Halloween horror marathon, channel 11.
Mouch: We are back.
Marc Thorne: My brother died because he was homeless and
poor. If he had been a firefighter or a banker in
a fancy apartment, they would have found a
way to save him. It was recorded on cell phone:
[video recording…]
Peter Mills: Chief, give me one more minute to go back in there.
Chief Boden: No, it’s over. No more minutes.
Peter Mills: H-He could be alive. Just give me one more minute. I
know I can get to him. I know.
Chief Boden: Not going anywhere. This building’s about to flash.
Peter Mills: Chief, I can get…
Chief Boden: Enough!
[end of video recording…]
Marc Thorne: Even his own man wanted to go back in and save
my brother’s life, but the Chief on the scene,
Wallace Boden, said no.
TV: So the investigation continues…
[remote clicks]
Peter Mills: [sighs]
cutscene
Nicki Rutkowski: Hey, there’s another request for an interview
about the fire from some blogger.
Chief Boden: The answer’s the same. No comment.
Nicki Rutkowski: Got it. And Peter Mills wanted to see you.
Chief Boden: Send him in.
Peter Mills: Thanks.
Nicki Rutkowski: Yeah.
Chief Boden: Hey, Mills, what’s up?
Peter Mills: Um, when I asked to go back in, I apologise if that was
out of line.
Chief Boden: Not another word. That is exactly the attitude I want
from all my men.
Forget the news report.
Peter Mills: Yes, sir. Thank you.
[door closes]
Chief Boden: You’re welcome.
cutscene
Leslie Shay: Hey, we got our first trick-or-treater.
Hallie Thomas: Hey guys. Happy Halloween.
Leslie Shay: Happy Halloween, lady.
Gabby Dawson: Sweet shoes.
Hallie Thomas: Thanks. Uh, are you a runner too?
Gabby Dawson: Uh, I just did my first 10k a couple months ago.
Hallie Thomas: Oh, wow, that’s-that’s my race too. I’ve been
training for the next one. I’m trying to get in
under 48 minutes.
Gabby Dawson: That sounds like a good goal.
Hallie Thomas: How’d you do?
Gabby Dawson: 45:20.
Hallie Thomas: Wow, that’s…great [chuckles]
Gabby Dawson: [chuckles]
Leslie Shay: Casey’s in his quarters, I think.
Hallie Thomas: Awesome, thank you. I’ll see you guys.
Gabby Dawson: Yep.
Leslie Shay: Bye.
45:20?
Gabby Dawson: It was somewhere around there.
cutscene
[door opens]
Matt Casey: Everything okay?
[door closes]
Hallie Thomas: Of course. Why do you look worried?
Matt Casey: [exhales] I-I’m not worried. Just…surprised.
Hallie Thomas: Well, I was thinking about our new plan to start
fresh, and I realised…
Matt Casey: What?
Hallie Thomas: That there is something that we talked about doing
and never did.
Matt Casey: Yeah?
[blinds rolling down]
[lock click]
cutscene
[knocks on door]
Nicki Rutkowski: Chief, this is Sondra Sherman.
Sondra Sherman: I’m an attorney with the city’s office.
Chief Boden: How can we help you today?
Sondra Sherman: I need to ask you some questions about the
Triskin warehouse fire.
Chief Boden: Why?
Sondra Sherman: The city’s been contacted by…an attorney for
Marc Thorne, the victim’s brother. There are
some concerns about the way the fire was
handled.
Chief Boden: My sympathies go out to Mr Thorne, but if I hadn’t
handled the fire the way I did, not only would his
brother be dead, but so would my men.
Sondra Sherman: Mmhmm. And how long was it after you called
your men out that the structure exploded?
Chief Boden: I don’t know…exactly.
Sondra Sherman: Huh.
Chief Boden: About a minute.
Sondra Sherman: And did one of your men tell you there was
someone still inside?
Chief Boden: Yes, he did, and he wanted to go back in and get
him. I said no. Seconds later, there was a
flashover.
Sondra Sherman: I wouldn’t ask you these questions unless I had
to, Chief. We don’t think you did anything
wrong, but an M.E.’s report will be released
soon, and if it says his brother was alive up
until the explosion, Thorne will come after
you, the department, and the city of
Chicago.
The city completely supports you. You shouldn’t
feel bad.
Chief Boden: I don’t.
If we’re done here, I have some work to do.
Sondra Sherman: [chuckles lightly]
[door open and closes]
cutscene
Kelly Severide: Wait here, guys.
[squad door shuts]
Kelly Severide: Hey, Bobby. Thanks for coming.
Bobby: Hi. How you doin’?
Kelly Severide: Good.
Bobby: So what’s the deal here?
Kelly Severide: You tell me.
[knocks on door]
Kelly Severide: Mrs Grady, how are you, ma’am?
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): I’m fine.
Kelly Severide: We just had a-a few questions about those fires
that you had.
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): They were accidents. I don’t know any more
than I’ve already told you.
Kelly Severide: Okay, we just wanted to make sure that there are
no more…incidents.
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): Sorry.
[door shuts]
Kelly Severide: Someone set fire to her car two weeks ago. This
morning, her garage burns, she says…
Bobby: So she said they were just accidents.
Kelly Severide: They weren’t.
Bobby: But why do you think somebody would come after her? I
mean, she lives alone. She keeps to herself.
Kelly Severide: Pick a reason.
cutscene
Sondra Sherman: I have a suggestion.
If you do a sit-down with Marc Thorne, that
could help minimise the damage.
Chief Boden: A sit-down?
Sondra Sherman: Yeah. A “Beer in the rose garden” kind of thing.
You, Thorne, attorneys for both sides.
Chief Boden: Whose idea was this?
Sondra Sherman: Sit-down was his. Beer was mine.
Sometimes a simple conversation can avert a
major lawsuit. Maybe all he wants is an
apology.
Chief Boden: I doubt that.
Sondra Sherman: Chief, I don’t think you understand. If we can’t
make this go away before the M.E.’s report
comes back, your job and your livelihood are
at risk.
Chief Boden: I am not going to apologise. I did nothing wrong,
neither did any of my men.
Sondra Sherman: Look, the city completely supports you.
Chief Boden: You keep saying that, and in the same breath, you
tell me my job’s on the line.
Sondra Sherman: We…
Chief Boden: [chuckles] I really do have work to do. I’m gonna go
do it.
cutscene
Nicki Rutkowski: I have a favour to ask you.
Can I borrow your house key?
I just want to set a little something up for Kelly in
his room. Champagne, candles. I think my dad
showing up at your apartment maybe pushed
him away.
Leslie Shay: Yeah, I don’t think it’s your dad showing up so much
that’s the problem as much as him announcing that
you’re engaged.
Nicki Rutkowski: I wasn’t hiding that.
Leslie Shay: Where’s your ring?
Nicki Rutkowski: It’s being resized right now.
So, can I have the key or not?
Leslie Shay: [chuckles] Not. At all.
[alarm beeping, PA buzzing]
(Over PA): Ambulance 61. Hand laceration, 310 East Pearson.
[background chatter]
[indistinct chatter over radio]
Leslie Shay: Oof! You got a nice bleed going there.
Yikes. What happened?
Victim 2 (Chef): I was, uh, chopping, and suddenly there were…
screams, so I took my eyes off the onion. Next
thing I know, my hand’s gushing blood.
Gabby Dawson: Screams?
Victim 2 (Chef): A reaction to a two-tier baby carriage and…
matching car seat.
Leslie Shay: Wiggle your fingers for me.
Victim 2 (Chef): [exhales]
Leslie Shay: Ah, it’s not bad but, yeah, you’re gonna need stitches.
Lady 2: The mom-to-be had a dizzy spell when she saw the blood.
Can one of you guys take a look at her.
Gabby Dawson: Oh, yeah, sure.
You’re not gonna believe this.
Leslie Shay: What?
Hey, Clare.
Clarice: Oh, my God.
Um…honey, this is…Leslie Shay, my old girlfriend.
Leslie Shay: Hi.
cutscene
Gabby Dawson: There are two patients. We’ll take this one with the
hand lac, so you can grab the other lady if you
don’t mind…
Leslie Shay: Actually, I just put Clarice in the back of our rig, so…
Gabby Dawson: And I said we would take him, so…
Victim 2 (Chef): It doesn’t matter to me.
Leslie Shay: Here you go.
[ambo door shuts]
Leslie Shay: Alright, I’m just gonna check your vitals and then
have a listen and make sure everything’s okay
with the baby.
Clarice: Okay. I just haven’t felt a kick in a while and then the dizzy
spell came on so suddenly.
Daniel Schwartz: I’m sure everything is fine, sweetie.
[blood pressure cuff pumping]
Leslie Shay: Blood pressure’s good.
All right, I’m just gonna lift your shirt off your belly
and have a listen.
Heart rate’s 140. It’s perfect.
Clarice: [exhales] Thank you.
Thank you, Les.
Daniel Schwartz: See? That baby’s already got a flair for the
dramatic. The teen years are gonna be…fun.
Clarice: [chuckles]
You know what I still have of yours? Those old blues
records that your mom gave you.
Leslie Shay: Oh, yeah. Forgot about those.
Clarice: Yeah.
I mean, you know, I-I can get ‘em back to you at any time.
Why don’t you, um, just give me a call and we can figure it
out.
cutscene
[laughing]
Capp: Who was that?
Kelly Severide: That’s Mills’ sister, Elise.
Hadley: Wow. When is the next family picnic?
Kelly Severide: Hey, let me give you a hand with those.
Elise Mills: I’m good, thanks.
Kelly Severide: You sure?
If this food ends up on the floor instead of the
table, it could cause a riot.
Elise Mills: [giggles] You’re Severide, right?
Kelly Severide: Kelly.
Elise Mills: Peter called, said he was supposed to make lunch and
he got busy.
He didn’t sound so great. Is everything okay around
here?
Kelly Severide: It’s just another day on the job. Your brother’s a
good kid.
Elise Mills: Yeah, he is.
I gotta get back to the restaurant. Thanks for the help.
cutscene
Otis Zvonecek: Give me the ball, give me the ball.
Truck 81 men: Ohh!
Oh!
Ohhh! [laughing]
Marc Thorne: My name is Marc Thorne. I’m here to talk to Chief
Wallace Boden. Is he here?
Chief Boden: I’m very sorry for your loss, Mr Thorne.
Marc Thorne: Chief Boden! You knew my brother was in that
warehouse.
Christopher Herrmann: Did you?
The guy was homeless, keeping warm in a
warehouse. You’re his brother. Where have
you been?
Peter Mills: Herrmann, come on.
Chrisopher Herrmann: No, sorry, I’m not gonna be quiet.
‘Cause a few weeks ago, I almost bought
the farm, trying to save a stranger. It’s
what we do, every day.
It’s what we tried to do for your brother.
Chief Boden made the call he had to
make.
Just be glad you never have to do that.
cutscene
Christopher Hermann: What is this?
Leslie Shay: We heard you represented, Herrmann.
Gabby Dawson: So, I’m gonna throw out a name…Clarice
Carthage.
All: Oh ho ho…
Christopher Herrmann: Ow.
Peter Mills: Wait, who?
Joe Cruz: The bitchy ex-girlfriend.
Leslie Shay: She wasn’t a bitch, per se.
Matt Casey: She…was a little full of herself.
Gabby Dawson: Well, she’s now got a news status update. She is
now Clarice Schwartz, married to a dude, and
seven months pregnant.
Otis Zvonecek: Oh!
[laughing]
Otis Zvonecek: Did I not call that?
Joe Cruz: [laughing manically]
Otis Zvonecek: Did I not say she had one foot in, one foot out?
Leslie Shay: You did not say that.
Otis Zvonecek: Well, not to you, maybe, but did I not call that?
Christopher Herrmann: He called that [laughing]
[laughter]
Leslie Shay: [sighs] Yep.

Man 2: Look, he’s got candy. He’s got a bunch of candy.
Chief Boden: Oh, look at you. That costume is terrifying. You’re
about to scare the neighbours to death.
Want some treats? Give me that. Whomp.
Man 2: I saw your picture online. I read about what happened. Keep
your chin up. You did the right thing.
Chief Boden: Appreciate that.
Halloween is about the kids.
Thank you for coming.
Man 2: Come on, guys, let’s go.
Next.
Get some more candy? Should we get some more? Let’s
go.

Okay, nevermind.

brew.

Gabby Dawson: Watch out, guys.
Matt Casey: Hold his head steady.
Firefighter: Guys, come on.
Victim 3: [grunting]
Peter Mills: I got it.
Gabby Dawson: Hold his head.
Peter Mills: Yeah.
Leslie Shay: Did he take any drugs?
Lady 3 (Sexy Nurse): No, j-just a couple of beers. Then all of a
sudden his eyes rolled back in his head
and he…he dropped and just started
jerking around.
Leslie Shay: Does he have a history of seizures?
Lady 3 (Sexy Nurse): I don’t think so. This is only our second date.
Gabby Dawson: Alright, ready.
Turn him over.
Man 3 (Fake fireman): Hey, let me help out, fellas.
Matt Casey: Stay back, sir.
Man 3 (Fake fireman): Yeah, how about giving me a c-4 tube and
a Lidocaine drip?
[laughter]
Christopher Herrmann: Let ‘em do their job.
Peter Mills: All right, come on. Move it out.
Gabby Dawson: Watch out. Come on. Make fast.

Sondra Sherman: Chief, wanted to let you know the M.E.’s report
came in.
Jonathan Thorne died from injuries sustained
during the explosion. The department is putting
together a committee now.
Chief Boden: This doesn’t change anything.
[dramatic music]
[door shuts, lock clicks]
cutscene
Nicki Rutkowski: Lieutenant Casey, there’s someone out front for
you.
Matt Casey: Detective Voight.
Hank Voight: Got some good news for you, Casey.
Matt Casey: Yeah? What’s that?
Hank Voight: Well, I heard about what happened to your car.
I don’t normally handle this kind of thing, but…to
be honest, I felt like I owed you an apology after
my behaviour the other day. I was out of line.
So I put my guys on it, and we caught the little
scumbag.
Matt Casey: And how’d you know it was him?
Hank Voight: Come here.
This yours?
There you go. He had it on him.
And make sure nothing’s missing, will you?
Matt Casey: [scoffs] This isn’t mine.
Hank Voight: Well, the kid must have stashed it in there.
You know, there’s a simple, honest solution to all our
problems. One that keeps my son out of jail and lets
you and I get on with our lives. All you gotta do is
change that report.
Matt Casey: I’m not gonna do that.
cutscene
Gabby Dawson: [groans] Last year [grunts] we went through four of
these. This year we barely finished one.
Matt Casey: Not the best day.
Gabby Dawson: What is it?
Matt Casey: [sighs] Detective Voight showed up here…tried to
bribe me with a wad of cash.
Gabby Dawson: What? Wha…we’ve gotta call my brother and tell
him.
Matt Casey: I’m just gonna…testify and let the courts handle it.
Gabby Dawson: [sighs] Well, what does Hallie say?
Matt Casey: I didn’t tell her.
Gabby Dawson: Why not?
Matt Casey: I don’t know. I don’t wanna worry her, I guess.
Gabby Dawson: You should tell her.
Matt Casey: Yeah. Yeah, I probably should.
I’ll see you later.
Gabby Dawson: Yeah, later.
[sighs]
cutscene
[jazzy music]
[liquor pouring]
Leslie Shay: [slurring] I mean, you should have seen Clarice’s
apartment. It was…like a museum; all this fancy
breakable crap everywhere.
The place she and I used to live, there was peeling
paint, dripping faucets…but it’s great. You wanted
to hang out there all day long, you know?
Will you pass me a lime?
Kelly Severide: Yeah.
Leslie Shay: They had a floor-to-ceiling wine rack. I mean…she
used to hate wine [slurping]
She drank beer. I loved that about her. I guess she
drinks wine now.
[liquor pouring]
Kelly Severide: How long did you two…
Leslie Shay: Three years.
Kelly Severide: Mm.
Leslie Shay: Yeah I mean, it wasn’t like, you know…a casual thing.
It was…uh…we were serious. Or at least I thought we
were. Turns out I may have overestimated her
lesbianism
Kelly Severide: [chuckles lightly]
[rapping on door]
Leslie Shay: Really?
Kelly Severide: No offense…I’m not taking advice from you right
now.
[coughs]
Leslie Shay: This is a new low.
Nicki Rutkowski: Wanna help with this?
What?
Kelly Severide: I was engaged once too…
[door closes]
cutscene
[door shuts]
Sondra Sherman: Just wanted to pass along some positive news.
The…Thorne situation has been resolved.
Chief Boden: Resolved how?
Sondra Sherman: Marc Thorne has dropped all plans to sue the
city.
Chief Boden: You gave him a payout.
Sondra Sherman: [scoffs] There’s a settlement in the works, yes.
Chief Boden: You yourself said we did nothing wrong.
Sondra Sherman: You know, you should be happy about this.
Thorne was willing to settle quickly and for
a reasonable amount. There’s no further risk
of impact on you, and you continue to have
the city’s full support.
Chief Boden: Appreciate that.
Sondra Sherman: Take care, Chief.
Chief Boden: Yeah.
cutscene
Hadley: How many?
Kelly Severide: Three.
[alarm blaring, PA buzzing]
(Over PA): House fire, 220 South Kilbourn. Engine 51…
Jose Vargas: 220 South Kilbourn.
(Over PA): Truck 81, Squad 3…
Kelly Severide: Damn it!
(Over PA): Ambulance 61.
Chief Boden: Truck and Engine are near the scene. They’ll meet
you there.
Kelly Severide: What happened?
Joe Cruz: Molotov cocktail through the front window. Fire’s under
control.
Kelly Severide: The woman who lives here, Mrs Grady?
Joe Cruz: With Dawson.
Gabby Dawson: Just breathe in, nice and easy. We’re gonna get
that smoke out of your lungs, okay?
Kelly Severide: Is she okay?
Leslie Shay: Yeah, smoke inhalation. Oxygen will clear her up.
Kelly Severide: Hey, can you give me a second?
Gabby Dawson: Yeah.
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): [whimpering]
Kelly Severide: We could have lost you.
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): [whimpering]
Kelly Severide: I won’t go to the police, okay? I promise you that.
But you gotta talk to me.
Lady 1 (Mrs Grady): [whimpering]
Kelly Severide: Okay?

[baby crying]
[banging on door]
[lock clicks, door opens]
Man 4: Who the hell are you?
Hey, what you doin’?
Kelly Severide: Shut up. Sit down.
[door closes]
Kelly Severide: Mrs Grady. On Kilbourn.
Man 5: [scoffs] We don’t even know who that is.
Kelly Severide: She’s the one who called the cops about the drug
dealers on her block. She’s also my aunt.
Listen to me.
I hear about one more ember going anywhere near
Mrs Grady or her property again, I’ll come back
here, break your kneecaps, and drag you down to
the police station. You don’t have drugs on you,
I’ll plant them on you.
Man 4: You can’t do that.
Kelly Severide: The hell I can’t? It’s a firefighter’s word against a
couple bangers. Who they gonna believe?
cutscene
Christopher Herrmann: Extra, extra.
Firefighters are off the front page. Back in
the black smoke we go until another
tragedy.
Matt Casey: Another day, another story.
Christopher Herrmann: I wonder how much that Thorne is getting
from the city.
Mouch: Why work for a living when you can sue someone instead?
Kelly Severide: Morning, Chief.
Chief Boden: Our assistant Nicki has quit.
According to her father, she has broken off her
engagement, left for Europe for a while, so will
y’all just let me know if you hear of anybody
available for the position?
cutscene
Gabby Dawson: Leslie Elizabeth Shay.
Leslie Shay: What?
It’s…it’s not a big deal.
Gabby Dawson: No, it is. And…I’m sorry but I’m not gonna pretend
like I don’t remember peeling you off the floor
after that woman broke your heart.
She is married now. Taken. Unattainable.
Leslie Shay: I know.
I just wanted my records back.
Gabby Dawson: I’ll buy you a new set. I promise.
cutscene
Peter Mills: You wanted to see me, Chief?
Chief Boden: Yeah, Mills, come on in.
[door closes]
Chief Boden: I know you’ve been…struggling ever since the
warehouse fire.
Peter Mills: I was close enough to see him. If I’d had one minute, I
might have…
Chief Boden: Let me tell you about one minute.
I’ve been there.
Most of us have.
In my case, I was sure.
Surer than you are right now, even. That if I’d had that
one minute, I’d have been able to go in there, rescue
those people.
My best buddy and I, we went running back in.
The fire was trapped in the ceiling.
Couldn’t see it, so we didn’t know. We didn’t have
one minute. We lost the victims. I lost my friend. I got
a scar on my back that reminds me every single day
about the price of playing ‘beat the clock.’ And it’s
my job to make sure that you never get any kind of
reminder. You understand me?
Peter Mills: Yes, sir.
Chief Boden: You got it in you. You will make one hell of a
firefighter. Just like your dad was.
Go on.
[door closes]
cutscene
[radio chatter]
[somber music]
Radio: We’ll be opening up the phone lines shortly to take your
calls to talk about the Bears game on Sunday…
[continues indistinctly]
Peter Mills: Hey, Karen.
Karen: Hi Peter.
Peter Mills: How you doing?
Karen: Good.
cutscene
[background chatter]
Kelly Severide: So where should we go? Restaurant? Bar?
Strip club?
Leslie Shay: Yeah, okay.
Kelly Severide: Hey, you all right?
Leslie Shay: Yeah.
I just always thought she was the one [sniffles]
Kelly Severide: C’mere.
Strip club it is.
Leslie Shay: [chuckles]
cutscene
[phone ringing]
Joe Cruz: Fifty-One.

Hold on.
Matt Casey: Hey.
[tires squealing & skidding]
