Previously on Chicago fire...
- Stabilizers! - She's going!
Hey, I need to talk to you. You said you were gonna get your arm looked at.
A part of me doesn't wanna know. There's a surgery which can take pressure off the nerve.
How long would I be off work? Six months to a year.
How long you been dating this guy? He's taken.
I got a scar on my back that reminds me about the price of playing beat the clock.
Field test this idiot.
Look, detective Voight... that was his son driving this car.
He's a dirty cop.
You filed a report that said my son was drunk that night.
He was. I can take this to the next level real easy.
Believe me, you are gonna retract that statement.
What you're asking me to do... I'm not asking!
Why didn't you call Alexa back? I liked her.
What does a lesbian bring on a second date?
A moving van.
You have major commitment issues. Yeah, yeah.
Please put this out in front. I'm gonna take this stuff to the kitchen.
Great. I'm not carving this thing.
Some developing local news now...
Yo, do we have any spices around here besides salt and pepper?
What else do you need besides salt and pepper?
This is for the trick-or-treaters. And heads up...
Halloween is chief Boden's favorite holiday.
Oh, I'm dead serious.
We can see where you're putting that.
Hey, nobody touches the candy. We ran out last year.
I graciously donate my in-laws' television, and I cannot get a piece of candy?
I keep coriander, cumin, and bay leaves in the back cupboard.
Um, I used up all the saffron last time I cooked.
Engine 51, truck 81,
squad 3, ambulance 61.
Warehouse fire, 6620 Oak Park.
This is the old Triskin warehouse.
Looks like the door's been pried open. Could be squatters inside.
Smoke's already coming out pretty quick. We don't have long on this one.
Engine 51, give me a 21/2 in the front door truck 81, open up the back and vent the skylights.
Kelly, give me that primary search. You got it.
Raise the aerial and take out the skylights.
Herrmann and Mills, let's open up the back and get in there.
Let's go.
Smoke's bad. Get the doors down fast.
Strike.
Good.
Done.
Going left.
- Mind your step. - Call out.
Fire department! Anyone in here?
That smoke's turning ugly.
Fire department! Anyone in here?
There's someone in the back! Let's go!
Hey, guys, over here. Fire department!
Anybody here?
Call out!
I got you. Come on. Hang on to me. We're gonna get you out.
We got him. Fire department!
All companies, evacuate the building.
Come on, Mills, let's go.
It's gonna flash.
Herrmann and Mills still inside? Yep.
Repeat, evacuate immediately.
Let's go. Come on, now, guys. We gotta get out of there. Let's go.
Come on, men.
Come on, Mills.
There's a guy still inside. I saw him.
Chief, give me one more minute to go back in there.
No, it's over. No more minutes. He could be alive.
Just give me one more minute. I know I can get to him.
I know.
You're not going anywhere. This building's about to flash.
- Chief, I could... - Enough!
All officers, take count of your firefighters. Nobody goes back in.
All members out of the collapse zone.
- Everybody, back up. - Back up.
Fire up the water cannons.
- Come on, let's go. - Boys!
We got it! Hey, give her back the wand now.
Hey, hey. Here you go.
Man.
I thought you were gonna be a superhero. I am. I'm superboy.
That's the whole costume?
That's pretty half-assed. Christopher!
What, he can't put on a cape?
He doesn't have a... All right.
I walked in on your dad again.
The man refuses to lock the door.
And you refuse to knock.
This came for you.
Aw, crap.
Were you there, daddy?
Yep, and we kicked that fire's butt.
Love you, okay?
- Bye. - Bye.
You can't leave. I put a force-field around the door.
If you had a cape on, I might believe that.
- Come on, I'm late. - No.
Lukie, hey.
I told you, you don't have to worry about me so much.
What if you get hurt again? I'll get better, just like last time.
And like you did, when your bike went over.
Us Herrmanns, we're tough bastards.
You said "bastards. " Don't tell mom.
Okay.
Come on. Come on, buddy.
Okay.
I love you, buddy.
Happy Halloween!
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? - Yeah.
Go on, then. Get out of here and come back.
- Y'all look great. - Thank you!
Lieutenant, can I ask you something?
In general, when the chief says, everybody out of a building now,
how much time do we really have?
A minute? 30 seconds? What?
Don't beat yourself up, Mills.
See, the thing is, I was closest to the victim.
I- I could see him, you know?
When chief says "now," he means now.
Not 30 seconds, not any seconds. Got it?
Yeah. Yeah, I figured.
Thanks.
Morning, lieutenant.
Morning.
You get hurt the other night?
Mind not turning the locker room into a chat room?
Yeah.
Just take the damn piece of candy already. She won't notice.
I'm not climbing onto the counter.
Hey, did you guys hear that Casey's gonna testify against detective Voight's son?
Apparently, Dawson's brother says it's a risky move,
and Voight's a dangerous son of a bitch.
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 a union rep,
they sent me a bunch of brochures.
I'm good. Thanks.
Just need to testify at the arraignment, once it's set.
You see this crap?
Why is it crap?
I just mean that that's what happened, isn't it? So...
Where is the headline about how we busted our humps and saved three guys, huh?
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.
- Whoo! - Big time Vargas.
Make sure to bow next time you walk by.
- Best of luck. - Thanks, lieutenant.
Hey, lieutenant Casey, I just saw your car out front.
Something happened to it.
What the hell? This is why I can't stand Halloween, man.
The punks, they go wild. My gym bag got lifted.
Right in front of the station.
Call the cops. File a report.
Yeah, I should.
Truck 81, squad 3. House fire, 220 South Kilbourn.
Fire is out on arrival. Hold all incoming companies.
We'll do a little overhaul.
- You okay, ma'am? - I'm fine.
I must have dropped a cigarette or something.
I was cleaning out the garage.
So stupid of me. Well, good job putting it out.
We were here a few weeks ago.
Fire in your car, parked out front.
The car is old.
Two fires in two weeks?
Bad luck always comes in streaks.
I need to check inside, make sure the fire didn't get into the adjoining wall.
All right.
No heat. That's good.
Me and my late husband. How long were you married?
45 years, till he passed.
Wow. What's the secret?
I never asked.
Just counted my blessings every day.
- She say what happened? - Mm-mm.
- What the hell happened? - It went out.
What?
It just needed a new cord. Nobody panic.
Go ahead. Try it.
Yes.
Halloween horror marathon, channel 11.
We are back.
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 a cell phone.
Chief, give me one more minute to go back in there.
No, it's over. No more minutes. He could be alive.
Just give me one more minute. I know I can get to him.
I know.
Not going anywhere. This building's about to flash.
- Chief, I can get... - Enough.
Even his own men wanted to go back in
and save my brother's life,
but the chief on the scene, Wallace Boden, said no.
So the investigation continues...
Hey, there's another request for an interview about the fire from some blogger.
The answer's the same. No comment.
Got it. And Peter Mills wanted to see you.
Send him in.
Thanks.
Hey, Mills, what's up?
Um, when I asked to go back in,
I apologize if that was out of line. Not another word.
That is exactly the attitude I want from all my men.
Forget the news report.
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Hey, we got our first trick-or-treater.
Hey, guys. Happy Halloween.
- Happy Halloween, lady. - Sweet shoes.
Thanks. Uh, are you a runner too?
Uh, I just did my first 10k a couple months ago.
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.
That sounds like a good goal.
- How'd you do? - 45:20.
Wow, that's great.
Casey's in his quarters, I think.
Awesome. Thank you. I'll see you guys.
- Yep. - Bye.
45:20?
I think it was somewhere around there.
Everything okay?
Of course. Why do you look worried?
II'm not worried.
Just surprised.
Well, I was thinking about our new plan to start fresh,
and I realized...
What?
That there is something that we talked about doing and never did.
Yeah?
Chief, this is Sondra Sherman.
I'm an attorney with the city's office.
How can we help you today?
I need to ask you some questions about the Triskin warehouse fire.
Why?
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.
My sympathies go out to Mr. Thorne,
but if I hadn't handled the fire the way that I did,
not only would his brother be dead, but so would my men.
And how long was it after you called your men out that the structure exploded?
I don't know exactly.
About a minute.
And did one of your men tell you there was someone still inside?
Yes, he did, and he wanted to go back in and get him.
I said no. Seconds later, there was a flashover.
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. I don't.
If we're done here, I have some work to do.
Wait here, guys.
Hey, Bobby. Thanks for coming.
- Hi. How you doin'? - Good.
So, what's the deal here? You tell me.
Mrs. Grady, how are you, ma'am? I'm fine.
We just had a few questions about those fires that you had.
They were accidents.
I don't know any more than I've already told you.
Okay, well, we just want to make sure
that there are no more incidents.
Sorry.
Someone set fire to her car two weeks ago.
This morning, her garage burns, she says... she said they were just accidents.
But they weren't.
Why do you think somebody would come after her?
I mean, she lives alone. She keeps to herself.
Pick a reason.
I have a suggestion.
If you do a sit-down with Marc Thorne,
that could help minimize the damage.
- A sit-down? - Yeah.
A "beer in the rose garden" kind of thing.
You, Thorne, attorneys for both sides.
Sitdown was his. Beer was mine.
Sometimes a simple conversation can avert a major lawsuit.
Maybe all he wants is an apology. I doubt that.
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.
I am not going to apologize. I did nothing wrong, neither one of my men.
Look, the city completely supports you.
You keep saying that, and in the same breath, you tell me my job's on the line.
I really do have work to do.
I'm gonna go do it.
I have a favor 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.
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.
I wasn't hiding that.
Where's your ring?
It's being resized right now. So, can I have the key or not?
Not. At all.
Ambulance 61. Hand laceration.
310 east Pearson.
Oof! You got a nice bleed going there. Yikes. What happened?
I was chopping, and suddenly there were screams,
so I took my eyes off the onion. Next thing I know, my hand's gushing blood.
Screams?
A reaction to a two-tier baby carriage and matching car seat.
Wiggle your fingers for me.
Ah, it's not bad but, yeah, you're gonna need stitches.
The mom-to-be had a dizzy spell when she saw the blood.
Can one of you guys take a look at her?
Oh, yeah, sure.
You're not gonna believe this.
What?
Hey, Clare.
Oh, my God.
Um, honey,
this is Leslie Shay,
my old girlfriend.
