Ryan: "You know I came in here for a legitimate reason, you know?" she hums, leaning against Matt's office door as he presses kiss along her neck
Matt: "Yeah, but this is way more fun." he shrugs, making her chuckle as she shakes her head
Max: "Matthew Casey, where you at?" he calls out, banging on a door as he enters the firehouse
Ryan: "What's that?"
Max: "Alderman Casey, I'm calling you out!"
Matt: "Oh, God." he sighs, hanging his head as Ryan furrows her brows in confusion, following after him as he exits his office
Marcie: "Excuse me, sir, can I-"
Max: "Whoa!" he exclaims spinning around to face her which makes Marcie jump back in surprise "You don't sneak up on a man that's trained in hand-to-hand combat."
Mouch: "Easy there, friend. No need for that." he hums, coming out of the common room
Cruz: "What's going on in here?"
Max: "Tell Alderman Casey Max Schlottman is here to see him."
Matt: "Mr. Schlottman." he greets, coming down the hall with a fake smile on his face
Ryan: "Friend of yours?"
Matt: "Uh huh."
Max: "How come you don't return my calls, Alderman? You too good for me? Huh?"
Matt: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Schlottman" he hums, moving over to shake his hand, wrapping an arm around his shoulder as he leads him towards the exit "But, listen, here's the thing. I don't handle ward business when I'm on shift."
Max: "Yeah, but I call your office, you won't call me back."
Matt: "I get lots of calls. Mm. Tell you what. Put your concerns down in a letter and I'll read it, I promise."
Max: "Okay. We'll try it that way."
Matt: "It's good to see you, Mr. Schlottman."
Max: "I won't be ignored!" he declares, Matt nodding in agreement
Matt: "I understand. Bye." he hums, watching Max exit the building, turning to face the others as the smile on his face drops
Hermann: "So another satisfied constituent?"
Matt: "Sorry about that, guys. Marcie, you okay?"
Marcie: "Yeah, I'm good."
Matt: "All right."
PA: Squad 3, Ambulance 61. Pin-in accident. 5200 block, West 26th Street.
Matt: "Hey, uh, we're finishing that conversation when you get back." he hums, giving Ryan a knowing look as she snickers, shaking her head as she moves over to the driver's side of the truck
•
Kelly: "Hey, Cruz, grab the Hurst." he hums, arriving at the scene to find a man trying to pry open the door to a car
Cruz: "Copy that."
Kelly: "What happened?"
Man: "Uh, I found 'em like this. Driver's pretty messed up. I tried to open the door, but..."
Ryan: "All right, hey, just hang back. All right, everybody back up!" she calls out, pushing past the crowd
Dawson: "Driver's pulse is thready."
Arya: "You okay, honey?" she hums, checking on the boy sitting in the backseat "All right, we have a child in the back. We need a second ambulance."
Theo: "Main, this is 61, we need an additional ambulance. We got two victims, one child, one adult, both red."
Main: "Roger that, 61. Second ambo's on the way."
Cruz: "Something came through the windshield." he hums, pointing to a large hole in the windshield
Dawson: "Yeah. Concrete. Must have hit her in the head."
Cruz: "Maybe a truck kicked it up or something?"
Ryan: "Something that big, I don't know." she shrugs
Arya: "Brett, how's the driver?" she hums, watching as Brett moves over to the woman after Squad pries the door open
Brett: "Ma'am? Ma'am, can you hear me? Checking for anisocoria."
Kelly: "My name's Kelly. What's your name, bud?"
Zach: "I'm Zach."
Kelly: "Hold on, Zach, we're gonna get you out of there. How old are ya?"
Zach: "Where's Layla? She was right here." he hums, looking around the backseat
Arya: "Who's Layla?"
Zach: "She's my baby sister. Where'd she go?" he informs, making Arya and Kelly exchange a wide eyes look
Arya: "Okay, people, we need a hand. There was a baby in the backseat. We need to find her."
Woman: "Oh, dear Lord." she breathes
Theo: "Brett, you good with the driver?"
Brett: "Yeah, I got her. Go."
Ryan: "Looks like the car started rolling over there, and the baby could have been thrown out at any point along the way."
Zach: "Can I help?"
Kelly: "No, you stay here, bud. I'm gonna stay right here with you."
Cruz: "Maybe the concrete fell off the bridge."
Arya: "Yeah. Maybe." she shrugs
Man: "Anybody else hear that?"
Ryan: "Hey, quiet!" she calls out, hearing the sound of crying coming from a sewer drain on the ground
Arya: "Oh, my God!" she exclaims "We got her! She's alive!"
Cruz: "Hey, Capp, grab a pry bar!"
Capp: "Got it."
Cruz: "Nice work, bud." he hums, patting the man on his arm
Man: "Can't believe she's alive."
Arya: "Hey, sweetie. You're gonna be okay. You're gonna be okay." she assures, straining as she reaches her hand in, lightly brushing her fingertips against her hand
Ryan: "Heads up, Arya." she hums, motioning her to the side as they pry open the grate, Arya moving to hang over the edge as she pulls the baby into her arms
Arya: "She's okay." she breathes, giving the baby a quick check over, nodding at the crowd who applauds
Woman: "It's a miracle. It's an honest-to-God miracle."
Kelly: "She's okay. You saved her life."
Arya: "Alright, give me some space, people. Give me some space." she hums, moving towards the ambulance, stopping in her steps when looking towards the bridge
•
Cruz: "Not a mark on her. Laying there like she was taking a nap."
Hermann: "Never heard anything like it. It's amazing."
Mouch: "Hey." he hums, nodding at the paramedics and Kelly who arrive back at the house
Hermann: "So we heard about your call. What's the upshot?"
Kelly: "Boy's a little banged up, but he'll be okay. Mom, not so much."
Brett: "She has severe head trauma. But it will be a while before we know how bad it is."
Mouch: "What about the baby?"
Arya: "Baby's perfectly fine."
Cruz: "They didn't believe us."
Stella: "Thrown from a car, landed in a storm grate, not a scratch on her?"
Ryan: "Her harness wasn't tight enough. Car started rolling, centrifugal force just flung her out."
Stella: "It's incredible."
Hermann: "God looks after babies and fools."
Otis: "Oh, you hear that, Capp? You're in luck." he hums, making the others chuckle
Arya: "Hey, the cops say anything about how the accident happened?"
Ryan: "Don't know. We just swept up the glass, came back to the house."
Arya: "You tell them about the chunk of concrete?"
Ryan: "Yeah."
Arya: "They gonna do anything about it?"
Ryan: "I assume so." she shrugs, a look coming over Arya's face as she nods, turning to walk off
•
Hermann: "Wow, this is some high-end work here."
Stella: "It's a big event, I'm telling you."
Hermann: "All right, so where would the Molly's logo go?"
Stella: "Okay, okay, okay..."
Otis: "Hey, hey, what's all this?"
Hermann: "Hey, check it out. It's pretty fancy?"
Otis: "I...I thought we weren't doing the bar crawl."
Hermann: "No. Kidd's all for it."
Otis: "Kidd is not an equity partner."
Stella: "Look, it's a great way to bring in new business. Plus, we'll make a ton of cash in one night. I mean, what's not to like?"
Otis: "Oh, the massive amounts of vomit, the out-of-pocket expenses, just to name a few things. Hey, Ryan. You don't want Molly's involved in the Drunken Mile crawl, do you?"
Ryan: "Long as I don't have to work it."
Otis: "Arya?" he pleads
Stella: "Hey, she's not an equity partner either."
Arya: "Uh, whatever you guys want." she shrugs, moving over to where Ryan and Theo stand at the counter
Hermann: "Yeah, good, 'cause we're doing it."
Stella: "Yep."
Arya: "Finally tracked down the cop investigating the 26th Street accident. He says that none of the witnesses saw anything weird so he put it at the bottom of his pile. You believe that?" she scoffs
Theo: "I'm sure he'll get to it."
Arya: "Yeah, I hope so. All he wanted to talk about was the miracle baby."
Ryan: "Well, it was amazing. Wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it myself." she shrugs, Arya nodding as she taps her nails on the counter, brows furrowing in thought
Arya: "Get Dawson and Brett. We're going back out to the scene."
Theo: "For the purpose of?"
Arya: "A hunch."
•
Dawson: "So what is this hunch?"
Arya: "I grew up under Chicago bridges. Concrete that size doesn't just fall without more damage to the bridge." she hums, beginning to look around
Theo: "Well, if the concrete struck the car as it passed under the bridge, it would've continued on a ways before it hit the curb and started rolling."
Brett: "It's possible it might've fallen and hit the windshield."
Arya: "Maybe. Or somebody threw it" she shrugs, Brett and Theo turning to give her a raised brow "I have a dimmer view of humanity than you" she hums, noticing something on the other side of the overpass "Son of a bitch." she breathes, looking at pieces of concrete that lie on the ground, scattered in different spots
•
Walking through the apparatus floor, Ryan furrows her brows when looking towards the entrance at where Dawson, Brett, and Theo stand, looking up towards the roof
Ryan: "What are you guys-"
Theo: "Oh, Ryan-"
Brett: "Ryan, don't!" they warn, watching as said woman is stopped in her spot when a piece of concrete lands in front of her
Ryan: "Oh!"
Dawson: "Ah!"
Arya: "Get out of the way!" she calls out from on top of the roof, Ryan giving her an incredulous look
Ryan: "What the hell are you doing?!"
Arya: "You see what I mean?"
Theo: "Yeah, I see it."
Ryan: "What are you doing?"
•
Arya: "I mean, look at it. Compare this to the chunk that came through the windshield. Do you guys even have that one?"
Elijah: "Yes, we have that. But you can't pull prints off a rough surface like this."
Ryan: "This is beyond messed up."
Brett: "It's awful." she sighs, shaking her head
Kelly: "Chief, Marcie said you're looking for me?" he hums, entering the room
Boden: "Lieutenant Kelly Severide, lead firefighter on the scene. Lieutenant Rosin."
Elijah: "Elijah Rosin, Major Accidents."
Kelly: "What's going on?"
Dawson: "That crash wasn't an accident. Somebody dropped a chunk of concrete onto the car from the overpass."
Kelly: "On purpose? You kidding me?" he scoffs
Elijah: "We're not sure about anything yet, all right?"
Arya: "Look at this" she hums, holding her phone out to Kelly "You can see he was practicing his shots, trying to get his timing right. He just waits for a car to come by and then he-"
Elijah: "Look, I agree it looks that way, all right, but we need more to go on. Did you guys talk to anyone on the scene who actually witnessed the accident?"
Ryan: "No."
Kelly: "Most of the people came out of their houses when they heard the car crash."
Elijah: "I know the driver's in an induced coma, but did she say anything on the scene?"
Theo: "She was unconscious when we arrived."
Elijah: "What about the, um...oh, gosh...there was a little boy. Um. Gosh, Sean, or..."
Kelly: "You mean Zach?"
Elijah: "Right. Sorry. Sean's a different incident. I got three open cases right now" he sighs "Did Zach...did he see anything?"
Kelly: "He was in the back reading a comic. He-he said he heard a loud noise and...suddenly the car was rolling."
Arya: "Officer Rosin, these other accidents that you're investigating, are they really more pressing than this one?" she hums, giving him a pointed look
Elijah: "This just became my priority, all right? And I'm gonna do my best to catch this individual."
•
Arthur: "Excuse me" he hums, moving over to where Ryan stands in front of the Squad truck, flipping through a clipboard in her hands "Hi. I'm not sure if I'm in the right place. I'm looking for Teddy."
Ryan: "For who?" she hums, brows furrowing in confusion
-
Arthur: "There he is!" he cheers, following Ryan into the common room, gaining Theo's attention as he turns in his chair to face him
Theo: "Art! Hey!" he hums, standing to his feet, the pair exchanging in a hug "What are you doing here?"
Arthur: "You kidding me? You blow out of town without so much as a goodbye and then I find out you're a paramedic. Had to come see it for myself."
Theo: "Yeah, well. Needed something to do with my time."
Arthur: "And this is how you would rather spend it?" he scoffs, looking around the room "Dude, you should've called me. We could've hit up the Caribbean. Created our own version of spring breakers. You're a free man now." he hums, Theo letting out an awkward chuckle as the others exchange furrowed looks
Arya: "So...Teddy" she hums, snapping the pair's attention to where she leans against the counter "Who's your friend?"
Theo: "Uh, everybody this is Arthur. My friend from New York."
Arthur: "Friend" he scoffs, slapping his chest "More like your brother, dude."
Cruz: "Welcome." he shrugs, the others nodding in greeting
Theo: "Hey, you, uh, you busy? Got time to eat, we just started lunch."
Arthur: "That depends. They gonna be around?" he smirks, motioning to the group of women, an awkward look coming over Theo's face
•
Jasmine: "Knock knock."
Matt: "Jasmine. Hey. What brings you by?"
Jasmine: "A gentleman by the name of Max Schlottman" she hums, making Matt's face fall with a sigh "You know him?"
Matt: "I sure do."
Jasmine: "Well, he keeps calling my office, asking me why you won't respond to his calls."
Matt: "You know, when you badgered me into politics, how come you didn't warn me about people like Schlottman?"
Jasmine: "What kind of people are we talking about?"
Matt: "You know. The crazies."
Jasmine: "Matt, when you're an Alderman, here's the thing. You don't get to pick your constituents. They pick you."
Matt: "Listen, I don't know what the guy's issue is this week, but whatever it is, I'm sure there's nothing I can do about it."
Jasmine: "You develop psychic powers in between the last Alderman meeting or..." she hums, tilting her head as he sighs
Matt: "Okay, fine. I'll reach out."
Jasmine: "Good" she hums "You need anything from me, you know where to find me."
Matt: "Thank you."
Jasmine: "Tell Ryan I said hi."
Matt: "Yeah, I'm not doing that." he hums, shaking his head as she chuckles, turning to walk off
•
Arthur: "We were so drunk. You needed a crane to get us off the floor." he chuckles, sitting at the table along with the others
Theo: "I barely remember anything."
Arthur: "Well, surely you remember those two twins we met. Identical." he hums, making the men in the room exchange knowing smirks
Capp: "I love me some twins."
Kelly: "Like you've ever been in the same vicinity as twins." he scoffs, making the others chuckle as Capp gives him a heated glare
Arthur: "Before we knew it we were headed back to the hotel. Man, was that a wild night."
Theo: "The morning wasn't as fun."
Ryan: "What happened?"
Arthur: "Girl wanted to spend the rest of the trip with us, but playboy Teddy here kicked her to the curb. Had a new girl in his bed that night."
Arya: "Playboy, huh?" she hums, giving Theo a pointed look, watching as he sheepishly smiles
Arthur: "Hey, didn't she smack the crap out of you?"
Theo: "Yes. Yes, she did." he hums, Arthur chuckling as he shakes his head
Arthur: "Oh, I gotta go" he hums, glancing at his watch "But, hey, I'm here for a couple of days. What do you say we hit up a few bars? Maybe a couple of clubs. See if you still got it."
Theo: "Uh, yeah, sure. We could go to Molly's."
Arthur: "What's Molly's?"
Hermann: "Oh, it's our bar."
Arthur: "Oh, wow. Yeah, that's-that's nice. Sure, we could stop there" he nods, brows furrowing "But, uh, I was thinking of a different type of vibe. Ooh! Plus, I wanna check out this restaurant. Mastro's Steakhouse. What do you say?"
Theo: "Uh, yeah. Yeah, that sounds good."
Arthur: "Alright. I'll text you later." he hums, standing to his feet as he turns to walk out, the others turning to face Theo who's shoulders slump with a sigh
Dawson: "Teddy, huh?" she snickers
Theo: "Please, don't ever call me that." he sighs
Arya: "Isn't Mastro's Steakhouse one of the most expensive restaurants in Chicago."
Mouch: "It's high up there."
Arya: "How you gonna pay for that?"
Theo: "I have enough saved up" he hums, shrugging as they give him an incredulous look "What? It's just one dinner."
Ryan: "Weren't you the one crying not too long ago about how you don't even have $75 for groceries?"
Theo: "It's not a big deal." he shrugs
Arya: "Look, I know being poor is new to you and whatnot, but let me break it down for you in simple terms. You are broke. Dead, flat, broke. You ain't got a pot to piss in and the only reason you aren't experiencing what it's like to live in these cold Chicago streets is because of us." she hums, motioning to herself and Ryan, making Theo sigh
Ryan: "Let me ask you something. In between all those women you were hopping into bed with, have you ever told your "brother" that you're gay?"
Theo: "He doesn't need to know."
Ryan: "He's your best friend."
Theo: "You telling me you two know everything about each other?" he hums, looking between Ryan and Arya
Arya: "We know the other person's preference."
Ryan: "Yeah. We're both straight with Arya having a strange obsession with lesbian sex."
Arya: "It's more a curiosity." she shrugs, making the others chuckle
Theo: "I appreciate you guy's input, but I'm fine."
Ryan: "Suit yourself." she shrugs, watching as Theo stands to his feet, turning to walk out the room
Arya: "Just be lucky we don't charge you rent." she calls after him
PA: Ambulance 61. Sick person. 9570 Paulina Street.
Brett: "Paulina Street? Sounds like Gerald forgot to take his medication again."
Arya: "If that's all it is, fine. Can't handle another rough call right now." she huffs
•
Gerald: "It's funny, I...I feel okay now."
Dawson: "Well, we came all the way here, so you're getting looked at."
Nurse: "Gerald, what's the matter, hon?"
Gerald: "Hi, Doris."
Brett: "He was complaining of chest pains. We did a 12-lead. Everything checked out okay."
Arya: "Still, he thought better safe than sorry."
Nurse: "Can never be too cautious. Let's get you in a room, Gerald."
Dawson: "I'm gonna get some supplies." she hums, Arya nodding as she moves to stand at a nurses desk
Paramedic: "Hey, Hayes. Catch a good run?"
Arya: "Not really. Had one of our frequent flyers who was complaining of chest pains. Think he just wanted a free ride to fill out his prescriptions."
Paramedic: "It's like we're Uber drivers or something."
Arya: "Yeah" she chuckles "What about you guys?"
Paramedic: "Nasty car wreck. Girl might lose a leg. But she could have died. Good Samaritan stopped the bleeding till we got there." he hums, motioning to where the man from earlier stands at a nurses desk across the way
Arya: "Hey! You!" she calls out, making his head snap up, turning to run off "Hey!"
Nurse: "Sir, wait!"
Theo: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's wrong?" he hums, almost crashing into Arya as him and Brett wheel the gurney out into the hall
Arya: "It's him. The guy who found the baby."
Brett: "What?" she breathes, watching Arya move to the entrance, looking around with a sigh
•
Arya: "It's the same guy from this morning, no question. Tell me that's a coincidence."
Dawson: "He happens to witness two terrible accidents in the same day?"
Arya: "No chance."
Elijah: "You didn't get his name?"
Paramedic: "Well, I was busy trying to save a patient. I don't understand. He kept that girl alive till we got there, then he followed us here to make sure she was okay. It doesn't seem like the kind of guy who'd try to hurt someone on purpose."
Charles: "You know, sounds a lot like "hero syndrome" to me" he hums, turning from his spot at the counter "There are a lot of documented cases of individuals who create these desperate situations so they can come along and fix them. You know, a nurse who arrives just in time or a night watchman looking for his 15 minutes. So I'm just saying, if it turns out to be your friend in the-in the motorcycle jacket who's causing all these accidents, funnily enough from his perspective, it's got very little to do with malice. You know, he just wants to save the day, be a big hero."
Theo: "That is really demented."
Charles: "Yeah. Not really the expression that we shrinks like to use, but, um, I hear ya." he hums, nodding as he turns to walk out
Arya: "Moto Stars."
Elijah: "What's that?"
Arya: "It-it's a patch he had on his jacket. It said "Moto Stars," I'm pretty sure."
Elijah: "I'll add that to his description. "Moto Stars patch." Okay, I'm gonna check the security tapes, and let you guys know what I find."
Arya: "Check the parking lot tapes too. If he parked his bike out back, maybe you can get the tags."
Elijah: "Wow. Smart idea, Hayes, thank you." he hums, giving her a tight smile, turning to walk out
-
Heading towards the ambulance, Arya slows in her steps as a thoughtful look comes over her face
Arya: "Oh, my God." she breathes
Dawson: "What?" she hums, the others turning to face her in concern
Theo: "You okay?"
Arya: "That miracle baby. She didn't just miraculously tumble into that sewer. He put her there."
Brett: "To make sure he was the only one who could find her." she hums, a hard look coming over the group's faces
Arya: "He caused the wreck, saw that little girl thrown from her car seat...I mean for all he knew, she could have had spinal trauma or-or-or who knows what."
Dawson: "He just picked her up and dropped her into some filthy storm sewer."
Arya: "I swear to God, the cops better find him before I do." she scoffs, shaking her head as she hops into the rig, slamming the door behind her
•
Arthur: "So, what was it like? I mean, just packing up and leaving. Not looking back."
Theo: "It was scary, sure. But honestly I was more afraid of what would've happened if I stayed."
Arthur: "Your dad's been on the warpath ever since you left. What happened between the two of you?" he hums, making Theo slightly tense in his seat "I know there was always tension there, but..."
Theo: "We just had a difference of opinion."
Arthur: "Pretty sure you taking such a menial job didn't help things much."
Theo: "My job is anything but menial."
Arthur: "You're only saying that because you ride around with all those hot women." he chuckles
Theo: "You know they're more than that, right? I mean those three could run circles around you with their intelligence alone."
Arthur: "Damn dude, they got you whipped." he scoffs
Theo: "More like they got my respect." he hums, looking at his plate with a sigh, perking up when his phone buzzes
Arthur: "Okay, your phone has been going off ever since we sat down. Who is that?"
Theo: "Uh, Luke."
Arthur: "Who's Luke?"
Theo: "He's my, uh...my boyfriend" he hums, watching Arthur freeze, eyes widening as he snaps his head up "That's what the fallout with my dad is about. He wants me to be one way and I just...I couldn't do it anymore." he shrugs
Arthur: "You...you're into guys?"
Theo: "Yeah."
Arthur: "Since how long?"
Theo: "Pretty much all my life" he hums, watching Arthur sigh, tossing his napkin onto the table "The process of accepting it all was complicated and-"
Arthur: "Compli-complicated? Complicated?" he scoffs
Theo: "I wasn't ready to-"
Arthur: "Dude, we spent the night at each other's houses. We camped in the woods together. Hell, we...we spent numerous times alone together. You don't think at any point in time I deserved to know you might've been looking at the situation differently?"
Theo: "I never had a crush on you. I looked at you as my brother, that was it."
Arthur: "How can I know that for sure?!" he quietly exclaims "I mean, dude, how...I mean, I get fondling yourself, but how can you do that with another man? It's disgusting."
Theo: "It's really not."
Arthur: "Yes, it is. I mean, can you imagine what the guys at school would do to you had they found out? No wonder your dad wanted to hide that part of you."
Theo: "My father didn't make me just hide. He beat my ass everyday. Hell, the only reason I even got married was because of him" he grits, scoffing at the look Arthur gives him "I knew this was a mistake. Expecting an ignorant person like you to understand."
Arthur: "Oh, I'm ignorant?"
Theo: "Yeah. You are." he scoffs, tossing a few bills on the table, storming off as Arthur shakes his head
•
Arya: "Hello?" she calls out, entering a bike shop
Man: "Hi. Can I help you find something?"
Arya: "Actually, yes, you can. Um, I know this is kind of a long shot, but I'm looking for a guy with one of these patches on his riding jacket."
Man: "Will any guy do? Or you looking for someone specific?" he hums, motioning to himself, making Arya softly chuckle
Arya: "A very specific one." she hums, pulling out her phone, showing him a surveillance photo of the man from the hospital
Man: "You a cop?"
Arya: "I'm a paramedic. You recognize this guy?"

Ryan: "Guessing dinner didn't go well last night. Theo has yet to come out of his room." she hums, entering the kitchen where Matt sits at the counter, scrolling through his laptop
Matt: "Listen to this. The apartment complex going up next to Mr. Schlottman, they never got proper zoning approval."
Ryan: "So how are they building it?"
Matt: "The developer just plowed ahead, figuring if they moved fast enough, stayed under the radar long enough, city wouldn't have a choice but to rubber-stamp it."
Ryan: "That works?"
Matt: "Sometimes."
Ryan: "That's infuriating."
Matt: "Yeah, it is. But I'm not gonna let them get away with it. I'm gonna get this whole project shut down."
Ryan: "Really turns me on when you get all fired up like that" she chuckles, leaning over to press a kiss to his cheek "While you're at it, you should look into getting more cops assigned to accident investigation."
Matt: "They still haven't found the rock-thrower?"
Ryan: "Nope. Arya bugged the entirety of Intelligence. Everyone says Rosin's a good cop, just overworked" she shrugs "But she did figure out what Moto Stars is. Bike shop in Brighton Park."
Matt: "Rosin gonna check it out?"
Ryan: "Mm-hmm. Just after combing through a few hundred hours of traffic cam footage. He's trying to tie our guy to other accidents."
Matt: "I'm sure he'll find the guy."
Ryan: "Before or after Arya goes on a rampage." she huffs, Matt shrugging his shoulders in agreement
•
Standing in the lobby of the precinct, Arya sighs, pacing around the front desk as she continually glances at her watch
Arya: "Rosin" she perks up, watching said man enter the building "His name's Scott."
Elijah: "What am I looking at?"
Arya: "It's an order form from that bike shop. Our guy is definitely a customer. He special-ordered a muffler. That's his address."
Elijah: "I told you I was gonna hit the bike shop, right?"
Arya: "You were busy. I'm just trying to help. And I got you this address, so..."
Elijah: "Okay, yes, thank you. I'll check it out."
Arya: "Great. I don't have to be at work for another 20 minutes."
Elijah: "Hayes, you're not coming with me" he hums, shaking his head as Arya gives him a pointed look, making him sigh "You don't hear the word no very often do you?"
Arya: "Oh, all the time. I just prefer to ignore it."
Elijah: "Alright, fine. Let's go."
•
Elijah: "You know, he ordered this muffler six months ago. The address might not be current." he shrugs, looking up at the building as he continues to ring the bell
Arya: "So you're giving up 'cause the guy's not answering?"
Elijah: "No, I'm just pointing out, it still might take a bit to track him down. And we don't even have a last name yet" he shrugs, the pair perking up when hearing the door next to them open and close "Excuse me, ma'am? Do you know a Scott who lives here? About my height, dirty blond?" he hums, watching as she ignores him, continuing to her car "Thank you for your help."
Arya: "People don't like talking to cops" she chuckles "Become a paramedic and you can't get them to shut up."
Elijah: "Okay, let me do some digging. I'll park a uniform out here, keep an eye on the place. We're gonna get this guy. Count on that."
Arya: "Let me know if you find anything, okay?"
Elijah: "That's easy. Every time I turn around, you're right there." he chuckles, the pair exchanging a small smile as they head to their cars, neither noticing Scott who comes out from behind a parked truck, watching as Arya drives off with a hard look on his face

Hermann: "Hey. Why you eating lunch in here?" he hums, entering the briefing room where Theo sits at a table, pushing food around with a blank look on his face
Theo: "Just wanted some peace and quiet, I guess." he shrugs
Hermann: "Okay, so what's with the sour mood then?" he hums, taking a seat beside him "How'd dinner go?"
Theo: "Awful" he sighs "I told Arthur I was gay."
Hermann: "I take it didn't go well?"
Theo: "Not at all. I know I shouldn't want or need his approval but...we've known each other our whole lives. He was the only one from back home who still talked to me. Now, I've got no one."
Hermann: "That's not true. You got us here."
Theo: "It's different, though."
Hermann: "I know. But sometimes in order to move forward in the direction you need to go, you gotta lose a couple baggage. It hurts at first, but a few years from now, when you've married that special someone, got a few kids...you'll look back at this moment and be glad. You just gotta have faith." he hums, Theo giving him a soft smile, brows furrowing after a moment
Theo: "Wait, aren't you a Christian? Isn't homosexuality considered a sin in your book?"
Hermann: "Hey, love is love. It's got no gender." he hums
PA: Truck 81, Ambulance 61. Car accident. Ogden and 53rd.
Hermann: "Come on, kid. Let's go to work." he hums, patting Theo on the back as he nods in appreciativeness, the pair hurrying out to their respective vehicles

Theo: "What's the cross street again?"
Arya: "Uh...53rd street. Should be just up ahead."
Theo: "What...where's the accident?" he questions, motioning to the empty area in front of them
Arya: "Theo!" she exclaims, shielding her face as Scott comes out to the edge of the bridge, tossing a piece of concrete at the windshield
Matt: "Did you see that?" he perks up, watching as the ambulance pulls off to the side "61! You guys alright?"
Arya: "Hey, you guys okay?" she hums, the 4 exiting the ambulance
Brett: "Yeah."
Dawson: "We're good."
Arya: "He's right up there! Stop him!" she calls out, pointing 81 to where Scott speeds off on his motorcycle
Matt: "I see him. He's heading down the on ramp."
Driving over, Otis uses the truck to block the exit, making Scott swerve on his bike, Hermann quickly jumping out to tackle him
Hermann: "I got him!"
Scott: "Hey! Hey, get off me!" he grits, grunting as Matt and Hermann hold him to the ground, placing his hands behind his back "There's been an accident! I was just going to get help!"
Hermann: "Yeah, lucky for you, help has arrived."
Matt: "Otis, call for backup."
Otis: "Copy that."
Mouch: "Easy. Easy, Arya." he calls out, trying to stop said woman as she rushes over, punching Scott in the face
Arya: "An entire family almost died because of you, you worthless piece of crap."
Mouch: "Hey. It's over. It's over." he hums, pulling Arya away as Matt, Theo, and Hermann pin Scott to the truck

Ryan: "How's Anna liking Chicago so far?" she hums, entering the locker room with Kelly as they move to grab their stuff
Kelly: "She misses home. Can't blame her if she decides to go back." he shrugs, a fallen look on his face
Ryan: "Well, you gotta show her around. I mean besides Med and your apartment, what else has she seen?" she scoffs, giving Kelly a pointed look as he nods with a thoughtful look on his face
•
Elijah: "Hayes." he calls out, stopping said woman from moving to her car
Arya: "Hey."
Elijah: "Nice work finding Scott."
Arya: "Well, it's more like he found us, but..."
Elijah: "Yeah, but you got him off the street. Who knows how many other accidents he would've caused. Just lucky no one ended up in a body bag."
Arya: "Yeah." she nods, Elijah looking her over with a small smile
Elijah: "You know, he had a bruise on the side of his
face. Know anything about that?"
Arya: "Must've been his helmet. Banged his head up against the side of it when he crashed." she shrugs, Elijah chuckling, a look of disbelief on his face
Elijah: "Sure he had" he hums "Well, it was nice working with you. And if you ever come across any more accidents...feel free to call me. Here's my cell."
Arya: "Your cell?" she hums, raising a brow as she takes the card from his hand
Elijah: "Yeah, Just in case you ever wanna use it. No pressure." he shrugs, turning to walk off as Arya watches him with a soft look on her face
•
Ryan: "You okay?" she hums, watching Theo solemnly look at his phone, deleting Arthur's number from his phone
Theo: "Gotta move forward." he shrugs, Matt reaching over to squeeze his shoulder in comfort, the three watching as Arya re enters the room
Arya I'm glad to hear that. Thanks for letting me know. Bye" she hums, hanging up her phone "That was Maggie at Med. Zach's getting released from the hospital today. His mom's improving too. And dad brought baby Layla in to see her today. She got to hold her for the first time since the accident." she smiles, pulling Mateo into her arms as she sits down in her seat, placing him in her lap
Matt: "So you saved a family and caught a psychopath. All in a day's work? Huh?"
Ryan: "What about you? Don't sell yourself short." she hums, nudging his shoulder
Matt: "It's true. It's true. I got the porta-john moved 15 feet away from Mr. Schlottman's window, so."
Ryan: "Nice work, Alderman."
Matt: "Yeah, not really. I paid off a construction foreman."
Theo: "You listened to a man's problems and you went to bat for him. That's all that matters."
Matt: "Moving a toilet, saving a family, basically the same thing."
Ryan: "Exactly."
Arya: "Mine's more impressive though." she shrugs, making the others chuckle, the group perking up when hearing the door open
Kelly: "Hey."
All: "Hey!" they cheer, nodding at Anna who follows in behind Kelly
Kelly: "Hope it's okay we're crashing."
Ryan: "Are you kidding? I love making new people fall in love with my cooking. Grab a seat." she hums, heading into the kitchen as Kelly and Anna chuckle taking a seat
Matt: "How you doing?"
Anna: "I'm good" she smiles "And who is this?" she hums, waving at Mateo who giggles, waving back
Arya: "Only the best human on the planet. Mateo, this is Anna. Say hi."
Anna: "Hi buddy." she chuckles
Ryan: "Here you go." she hums, setting plates down in front of the couple
Anna: "Thank you."
Kelly: "Thanks, Ry."
Theo: "We were just about to breakout Monopoly. You two in?"
Matt: "Fair warning, somebody cheats." he hums, pointing towards Ryan
Ryan: "Just because you guys suck at playing." she scoffs, the others chuckling as Kelly squeezes Anna's hand, the pair exchanging a soft smile
