Ryan: "So..." she hums, awkwardly clearing throat as she sits in the living room with Matt, listening to Kelly and Brittany who loudly laugh from their room
Matt: "So..."
Taking a sip of her drink, Ryan shakes her head as the laughing continues and she stands from her spot, grabbing hold of her bag
Matt: "You want to talk to him?"
Ryan: "Your mess. You clean it up." she hums, giving him a pointed look as she heads to the door
Matt: "Mm."
Taking a sip of his drink, laughter rings out even louder, making Matt shake his head as he quickly stands, following after her
•
Brett: "Oh, my God. You scared the crap out of me." Matt hears as he looks out his office window to where she's whispering to Cruz
Kelly: "Knock-knock."
Matt: "Hey. Uh...Cruz and Brett." he motions to where the pair are talking, Cruz running a hand down Brett's arm, quickly running off when noticing their stares
Kelly: "What do you know?" he chuckles "What's up? Ryan said that you wanted to talk to me."
Matt: "Yeah, come in for a sec." he motions him into his office, handing him an orange
Kelly: "What's this for?"
Matt: "Thought you'd need a recharge after your workout this morning."
Kelly: "Oh. Yeah..." he nods, awkwardly laughing "You guys heard that?"
Matt: "Pretty sure half of Milwaukee heard that."
Kelly: "We'll try to keep it down."
Matt: "Hey, um...I don't want to put pressure on you, but have you guys thought about plans?"
Kelly: "For?" he questions, turning his attention to where others are hurriedly rushing past the office
Hermann: "Come quick, Lieutenant. You're gonna want to see this." he calls out
Matt: "What's going on?" he questions, entering the common room
Reporter: "We're looking at live footage of a mid-air helicopter explosion that took place moments ago. The cause of that explosion is currently unknown. Sources are reporting the aircraft displayed signs of distress..."
PA: "Truck 81, Squad 3, Engine 51, Ambulance 61, Battalion 25, Truck 70, Ambulance 96." the alarm rings out as everyone quickly hurries out their seats
•
Kelly: "Hey, guys, these choppers carry 300-gallon fuel tanks, so let's assume the worst. Everybody grab an extinguisher. You got it?"
Newhouse: "Copy that."
Kelly: "Newhouse, you bring the k-12 saw. Tony, Capp, jaws and cutters." he calls out, looking at messages from Brittany on his phone
Capp: "Got it, Lieutenant."
Kelly: "Stay focused!"
-
Brett: "Hey, can I ask you a question? Say you and someone in the house had a...secret."
Mills: "Okay."
Brett: "And you didn't really see any reason for it to be a secret."
Mills: "Well...look. In my experience, in-house relationships are better kept out in the open rather than have people guessing about it."
Brett: "Wait, no, it's not that kind of..." she quickly shakes her head, furrowing her brows in confusion "Hold up. Who'd you date in-house?" she snickers, eyes widening when looking at the scene "Whoa, mama."
-
Ryan: "Woah..." she breathes, looking up at the helicopter that's curently sitting on the edge of a rooftop
Boden: "Okay, everybody listen up. I want a full evacuation. Every one of these buildings got to be checked out and emptied out right now. Designate that area for triage. Squad 3, get on top of that building. Secure the fuselage. Check for survivors."
Kelly: "Right away, Chief."
Matt: "Cruz, bring Severide the aerial."
Boden: "Casey."
Matt: "Yeah."
Boden: "We got smoke and fuel coming out of that building. Get everybody out. And locate where that rotor went, see what kind of damage it did."
Matt: "Yes, sir. Nobody's on anybody's hip today. Everyone needs to step up. Herrmann, Otis, find that rotor. Everyone else, follow me."
Hermann: "All right, let's go."
•
Kelly: "Hey, guys, let's make this quick. We're walking on thin ice here" he cautions as they reach the roof "Hey! Stop moving! Hey! Hey, sir, stop!" he warns as a man continuously presses his shoulder against the door to try to open it "Listen to me. What's your name?"
Frank: "Frank."
Kelly: "Frank, okay. You're sitting right on the edge. You can't move another inch, okay? No movement."
Frank: "Okay."
Ryan: "Are you hurt?"
Frank: "No."
Ryan: "How about you, ma'am?"
Sally: "The seat, it's crushing my leg." she groans
Ryan: "Okay, just sit tight. We're gonna get you guys out of there" she assures, looking around the roof "If we start cutting into this now it'll go like that."
Kelly: "Use that A.C. unit as an anchoring point."
Tony: "Got it."
Kelly: "Let's move on this, double time, go on. Hey, Chief, I got a pilot and two passengers alive and well. That's the good news."
Ryan: "Bad news is, this roof seems really unstable. Not sure how much time we've got here."
Boden: "Okay, you do what you can and report back."
Kelly: "Copy that, Chief."
•
Brittany: "Chief Boden..." she breathes, rushing towards him
Boden: "Ma'am, I'm gonna have to ask you to step back behind these lines and stay there."
Brittany: "I'm Kelly Severide's wife. I'm Brittany. I'm so sorry, but I thought I heard his voice on your radio, and I really just-I need-"
Boden: "You know what you need to do is you need to remove yourself from the area..." he orders, moving her behind the line "And you let your husband do his job."
•
Newhouse: "The line's anchored, Capp."
Ryan: "It's not gonna be enough. We need some more webbing to hold her down."
Kelly: "Hey, whatever it takes. Just make it fast."
Frank: "I don't know what happened. It feels like maybe we hit a bird or something. It just happened so fast."
Kelly: "Hey, don't even think about it. You're in good hands. I'm on a total hot streak. Just won a thousand bucks in Vegas two weeks ago."
Frank: "Blackjack or dice?"
Kelly: "Rolling the bones, baby." he chuckles, perking up when the helicopter shifts
Frank: "Ah!"
Sally: "Aah! Aah!"
Ryan: "Grab the line!" she orders, grunting along with the others as Kelly keeps a hold on the side of the helicopter
Man: "Hey, look out!" he calls out as a piece of the roof falls to the ground
Tony: "We got it, Lieutenant."
Kelly: "See? What'd I say? Total hot streak." he smirks
Glancing to the side, Boden looks over at where Brittany is frantically looking around the area with tears in her eyes. Sighing to himself he moves over to her, pressing down on his radio
Boden: "Squad 3, report."
Kelly: "Hey, we're all good, Chief. Still working on it." he informs, making Brittany let out a breath of relief
•
Kelly: "All right, bud, we're almost there." he assures, prying the door open
Frank: "Thank you. Thank you. Oh, thank you." he breathes, leaning onto Tony who helps him out the helicopter
Kelly: "Yeah."
Sally: "What about us? I...I can't move. Robert, my husband, he's stuck."
Ryan: "All right, just hang on. We're gonna get you out."
Sally: "He's breathing. Hold on, honey."
Matt: "Chief, this is Lieutenant Casey. I found the victim. He's fallen into a transformer cage. Bleeding heavily. Transformer took some serious damage when he hit, and I've got live wires I'm trying to keep him clear of."
Boden: "Copy, 81. Proceed with extreme caution."
Matt: "Will do. Just waiting on Cruz to kill the power to this transformer." he informs as a look of worry comes over Ryan's face
Boden: "Copy." shaking her head a little she focuses her attention back on Sally
Ryan: "All right, listen. Don't move, okay?"
Sally: "I'm having trouble breathing."
Ryan: "I know, just...I need you to be still. Can you do that for me?"
Sally: "Yeah."
Ryan: "Okay, good." she nods, beginning to work on opening the door with the others which makes the helicopter begin rocking
Boden: "Squad 3, come in. Check your lines. Secure that chopper. You're running out of time!"
Kelly: "Not yet, Chief. I'm almost there."
Opening the door, Ryan steps forward, beginning to cut the seatbelt off of them
Boden: "Severide, that ledge is crumbling! You are losing support!" he exclaims, watching pieces of the roof begin falling "Herrmann, Otis, I need this entire area cleared right now. Move them to the end of the road."
Otis: "All right, everybody."
Ryan: "All right, let's get 'em out." she nods, entering the chopper to push the seat off the man
Kelly: "Careful, Tony." he grunts, passing the man to Tony
Tony: "It's all right, I got him."
Kelly: "Hey, Chief, we got one victim free, one to go."
Boden: "Casey, report!" he calls out when hearing a small electric explosion in the distance
Newhouse: "Lieutenant, it's gonna go!" he warns just as the helicopter shifts, knocking Ryan and Kelly to the side "Quick, grab that line now! Lieutenant, don't move in there. We need to secure this line!"
Capp: "Okay...we got you! Get out...now!"
Kelly: "Go! Go!" he orders, pushing Ryan to the front before jumping out after her
Boden: "Casey? Report. Casey, report."
Matt: "Yeah, we're okay. On our way to triage." he informs, making Ryan breathe out in relief
Kelly: "You good?" he questions, laying a hand on Ryan's shoulder
Ryan: "We can add helicopters to the list of things I'm probably never gonna try thanks to this job." she jokes, exchanging a laugh with Kelly as he leans forward to lightly knock their heads together
•
Man: "Allen! Allen! Is that my boy?" he exclaims, rushing to where Dawson and Mills are placing Allen onto a strectcher
Mills: "Sir, sir, he's gonna be okay, all right? Trauma team at Chicago Medical is top-notch."
Man: "Jack...is he..."
Dawson: "We got him. He's alive." she assures
Mills: "If you want, you can ride with us."
Man: "Thanks. Both of you."
Mills: "Hey, good work."
Dawson: "Yeah" she breathes, giving him a soft smile "Dawson and Mills. Just like old times, huh?"
Mills: "Yeah. Just like old times." he breathes, watching her walk off
•
Sally: "Please, Robert, hang in there. He hates flying. I begged him to go for our anniversary." she cries, following the group towards the ambulance
Kelly: "Don't beat yourself up, all right? It wasn't your fault. Just stick with him."
Sally: "I'm so sorry, Robert. I'm so sorry" she breathes, gasping when feeling a pressure on her hand "He just squeezed my hand."
Robert: "Sally...I want a refund." he groans, making her chuckle
Sally: "Oh, Robert."
Man: "Hey, Severide, your wife find you?"
Kelly: "What?"
Man: "Yeah, she's here, bugging out, looking all over for you." he informs, making Kelly pull out his phone to see 37 messages

Joseph: "Gabby." he calls out, gaining her attention
Dawson: "Seph?" she furrows her brows, moving towards him "What are you doing here?"
Joseph: "My uncle called me freaking out about his kids. Heard they apparently caused the whole thing."
Dawson: "Allen and Jack?"
Joseph: "Yeah. Are they okay? What about everyone else?" he frantically asks
Dawson: "They didn't walk away unscathed I can tell you that for sure..." she breathes "But they'll be okay. Everyone else seems okay...except for a few."
Joseph: "Damn..." he breathes, shaking his head "How about you? You good?"
Dawson: "Well, I got a good telling off from Casey for giving a woman my mask."
Joseph: "You did what?" he exclaims, looking at her in disbelief
Dawson: "How about we not talk about that and focus on the fact that I'm alive." she suggests, stepping closer to him to wrap her arms around his waist as he scoffs, shaking his head
Joseph: "We will be discussing this."
Dawson: "Yeah, of course. Later." she hums, pressing a kiss to his lips, not noticing the solemn look Mills gives the pair
•
Mills: "I'm gonna check storage for another box of gauze. I think we went through everything we had in the ambo."
Brett: "Dawson." she states, making his brows furrow
Mills: "What?"
Brett: "That's who you had the romance with."
Mills: "Uh...yeah. You're perceptive."
Brett: "I've been called worse."
Mills: "Look, this is gonna require a longer conversation, including beers."
Brett: "Whenever you want." she nods
•
Mouch: "All I'm saying is, considering the day we've had, I wouldn't object to an early dinner."
Ryan: "Oh, yeah, Mouch? You offering to cook?" she chuckles, giving him a look of disbelief
Matt: "Hey, hey. Hold up a sec" he calls out, pulling Ryan off to the side "So...two big saves in one day. Sounds like a cause for celebration. I was thinking maybe we get a hotel room tomorrow night, get out of the house." he hums in suggestion, making her turn to face him with a pointed look
Ryan: "You didn't tell Kelly to leave."
Matt: "I..." he stutters, making her brows raise "No. I didn't." he sighs, watching as Ryan steps forward, grabbing hold of his shirt
Ryan: "We will be ordering every dessert they have on the menu." she hums, patting his chest
Matt Yes, ma'am." he smiles, watching her leave
•
Entering his office, Matt looks over at where Cruz and Brett are whispering to each other once again. Watching Cruz walk off, exclaiming happily, Matt sighs, throwing his head back before moving to where Brett is lying on her bed
Matt: "Hey. I know it's none of my business, and frankly I'm not in a position to judge, but..."
Brett: "No. No, no, Cruz and I are not a thing."
Matt: "I just feel obligated to say that the whole firehouse romance thing, it's...it's not easy, all right? You have to work at it."
Brett: "No, it's not...it's not what you think."
Matt: "Yeah." he nods, giving her a look of disbelief, making her sigh, looking around the room for a moment
Brett: "All right. But this goes no further." she warns
-
Matt: "Promise me this won't go any further."
Ryan: "Can't say that it won't" she shrugs, making him give her a look "What? You know me" she points out as he nods in agreement "Now what is it?"
-
Ryan: "Okay, so this goes no further."
-
Hermann: "All right, but this goes no further."
-
Dawson: "This goes no further."

•
Kelly: "Look, babe, you can't be showing up at accident sites. Who does that?"
Brittany: "Someone who's concerned about their loved one."
Kelly: "Did you see one other firefighter's wife there?"
Brittany: "So what, Kelly? All you had to do was respond to one text. I wouldn't have come."
Kelly: "Britt, I can't be messing with my phone when I'm on my way to a damn rescue!"
Brittany: "And I can't be expected to sit at home waiting for a phone call telling me that you're not coming home!"
Kelly: "What are you talking about? This is insanity!"
Brittany: "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again. That's the definition of insanity."
Ryan: "Wow" she breathes, sitting on the couch with Matt "So, this is what the end sounds like, huh?"
Matt: "You see?" he hums, scooting closer to her as he wraps an arm around her shoulders "Sometimes when you just wait out your problems, they go away. Now I don't have to tell-" getting cut off by the sounds of giggling, the pair exchange a look "No, no!" he groans, throwing his head back as Ryan hums
Ryan: "You were saying?"
Matt: "Let's get out of here."
Ryan: "Yes, please." she sighs, grabbing hold of his hand that he reaches out to her as they head for the door

Woman: "Damn, Cruz, you got a full house out there?"

-
Cruz: "All right, everybody! How we feeling tonight?" he exclaims, running into the room
All: "Whoo!"
Cruz: "Can I hear you say zum-oh..." he trails off, eyes widening when seeing the group cheering from the audience "That is not good" he groans, nervously looking around the room "Et tu, Brette?"
Hermann: "Come on, what's the hold-up here? We paid a lot for the zima, not the yappety-yap, come on!"
Dawson: "It's zumba."
Hermann: "All right, he knows what I mean."
Cruz: "You know what? Forget it."

Matt: "Oh, my God. When he was like..." he demonstrates, making her laugh more as they arrive at a door
