Jack! Jack!
Everybody, listen up.
The battalion chief says we've got a report of people...
...trapped on the 12th floor or above.
He says the place is full of grain dust, which could explode at any time.
So everybody keep together, maintain radio contact.
Check that on the three side of the building.
Is that all right? You got that? Roger, IC. Three side of the building.
Why does it always have to be the 12th floor?
Why can't they be on the fourth?
Let's move it, Grandpa. Come on.

Come on!
Nice and easy.
Hey! Come on, get it up here! Up!
Truck 51 to Ladder 49 Portable.

We got heavy black smoke up here.
We got a four-by-four hole cut. We can't get in there yet.
Ladder 12, this is Ladder 6. We need the big booster.
Bring in a big line.
Hey. You the new rookie?
Uh, yeah, I'm looking for, uh, Captain...
Hey, yo, Frank. What's up? What's up, Tommy?
Drop your bag. Uh, take the spiral staircase.
Look for the door that says 'Captain's Office.'

Yeah, in the kitchen.
You're the rookie, right? Yeah.
Uh, probationary firefighter Jack Morrison reporting, sir.
Sir?
Your shift started at seven, son.
Uh, well, sir, I was already here. Ah, save it. Sit down.
Now, let me tell you somethin', boy.
Engine 33 is the busiest...
...and most disciplined firehouse in the city.
No room for slackers. You got that?
I know that, sir.
We get over 4,000 calls a year.
That's a lot of action.
Gotta be willing to go the extra mile.
Are you, Jack? Are you willing to go the extra mile?
Well, yes, sir. I don't think so.
I can.
Sorry, Cap. Uh, Father Hogan's here.
Uh, I'll go last. I'll go last. Let him go first.
Go ahead. Go ahead, Jack.
Yeah, so, Jack... Ok.
Welcome to, uh, Engine 33.
Good to have you onboard, son. Get out.
Well, thank you, sir.
Hey. Ray Gauquin. How are you?
Jack Morrison. Good to meet you.
Uh... so, the captain...
He's a great guy.
Uh, right down here. You can use this one.
This one? Yeah.
You Catholic? Yeah.
Most of the guys are. Uh... we have a thing here.
A priest comes around twice a year.
We all go to confession. In this job, you need it.
I mean, you get enough fires, you find God.
Yeah.
A good confession now, son. 'Bless me, Father...'
Uh, bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
It's been, uh...
...seven years since my last confession.
Seven years is a long time. Yes, Father.
All right, where do we start?
Theft? Robbery? Fraud? Taxes?
Well, you know.
Taxes? Always taxes.
How 'bout sex? Lmpure thoughts?
Well, yes, quite a bit.
Try to cut back.
Are you married? No.
Are you a virgin? No, Father.
Oh, you think it's funny to fornicate with loose women?
What? Wait a minute.
No, you wait a minute.
You come across any more loose women, you let me know.
Tommy Drake. Jack Morrison.
Hey, man. Don Miller. Good to meet you.
Dennis Gauquin. Hey.
My older and, as you can see, uglier brother.
Frank McKinney. Father.
Lenny Richter. Father Lenny Richter.
Pleasure to meet you. Good sport.
Cap.
You think we'll get something today or what?
I don't know, kid. I think you put a hex on us.
Uh, did you report a fire, ma'am?
I burned some bread in the oven, that's all.
Oh, well, can we come in and check, please?
You put one foot in here, this dog'll tear your ass off.
Get in there, probie.
Come here.
Yeah?
What the hell's this?
What? Are you stupid?
There's no paper. Yeah, it's right there.
It's not on the holder.
Why don't you use your hand? You're used to it.
Hey, who asked your opinion?
Get outta the bathroom.
Oh, God...! Goddamn it.
All right, who's the wise guy? All right.
Interrupting my sh... Goddamn it!
All right, somebody's gonna pay for this!
We got one, rook!
Come on, come on!
About three more blocks. Right after North Avenue.
All right, Cap.
Move out of the way, asshole!
How you feelin', kid? It's your first fire.
Are you ready to break your cherry?
That one. Grab that plug! Got you, Cap.
Three-story brick building. Flames showing second and third floor.
Go! Go! Go! Go!
Go, go, go!
Your helmet!
Slow down. Slow down.
You're getting tangled up. Let it go, let it go.
Single line, single line. Come on. Let it go.
All right, there you go.
Go in low. All right, stop here.
Stop, stop. Charge the line!
Charge it!
All right.

Move in. Now, now! I got it, Cap, I got it!
Easy, easy. Hit it! Hit it! Ok! Ok!
I'm with ya, I'm with ya.
Hit it high. Hit it high!

Aah!
It's all right. Get up!
Get up! I'm Ok, I'm Ok!
Here! Here! Come on, I got it.
I'm doin' it, Cap!
Up! Up! Hit it high! Hit it high!
Easy. Easy.
Hit it! Hit it! Ok!
You did it, man. Good job.
Whoo!
Hey, how 'bout that?
She go easy on you?
Get me up to speed. We've got a 20-story building.
Most of it concrete. Most of the fire's on the top eight floors.
And after that explosion on 12, one of our guys went missing.
Jack Morrison, Ladder 49.
Any radio contact with him? None.
Anybody with him? The others of Ladder 49 made it out.
They're in the stairwell with the victims.
You reported this? Yes, sir.
Ok. Deputy Chief One to communications.
I'm on location assuming command.
Strike out a fourth alarm.
Ok, shut down all exterior operations.
Get your asses in there and find him. Go, go, go.
Command to Ladder 49. Jack, come in.
Ladder 49, Morrison to Command.
Jack. Jack, it's Kennedy. How you holdin' up?
Chief, the floor collapsed.
I don't know. I'm pretty busted up.
Do you know where you are?
No. I was on 12 when it gave way.
I was on 12.
How you doin' on air?
Tank is no good. Air's out.
Ok, hold tight. We got units comin' in after you.
Hey, Mike.
Mike, the vic get out? Did he get in the bucket?
That's affirmative, Jack. He made it.
He's gonna be Ok. You did a great job.
Jack, switch to a different channel. Try eight.
Switch to a different channel. Try eight.
Hey, Mike... imagine me getting myself...
...trapped in here like some dumb rookie.
You should've taught me better.
Well, what do you expect? I did the best I could with what I had to work with.
No. No academy fire was ever that hot.
I told you. Didn't I tell you?
Nothing compares, right? Nothin'.
I can't believe it.
Hey, we need ketchup. Right.
Maybe more. Ok.
That's it.
I'm goin' in.
Uh, excuse me. Hi.
Hi. So, can I ask you a question?
Sure.
Now, who are these for?
For us.
Really? Yeah.
Um, you can't eat these.
Why not?
These, these are, these are for fat, lonely girls...
...who stay at home at night watching TV.
Lasagna is for the fat girls? Yes!
Lieutenant, right? Yeah, that's right.
Lieutenant Jack Morrison.
Hey. Hey.
I'm Captain Dennis Gauquin.
Uh, Cliff's Crab Shack, you ever heard of that?
No. Best seafood in town.
That's what you need. Oh, really?
Sorry, we can't do it. We already planned dinner.
Thanks, though. Yeah.
Ok.
Hey, you know where the ketchup is?
Maybe.
All right, can you show me? Sure.
Ok.
Ketchup, huh? Been fightin' fires all day.
I need some help finding the ketchup.
Sorry. The captain's been under a lot of pressure.
We had a big fire today and I think the, uh, smoke probably went to his head.
It doesn't seem to be his head that's the problem, Lieutenant.
That's funny.
Hey, I'm Jack Morrison.
Yeah. He told me, remember?
Oh, yeah, that's right.
So, you guys usually pick up girls in the supermarket, for fun or...?
Well, usually I just throw 'em over my shoulder and carry 'em down a ladder.
Sort of a Tarzan-Jane thing?
It was nice to meet you. I should get going.
Yeah, it was nice meeting you.
Bye. Bye.
Eight o'clock.
What? Cliff's.
With those girls?
You mean, like if you lock yourself out? Yeah.
Well, if you lock yourself out...
...and you say that you left the stove on, yeah...
...the fire department has to come let you in.
But we try to stop people from doing that...
...by knocking down their door with an ax. Right, Jack?
Wanna go outside for a smoke? Oh, more than anything.
Let's go. You guys Ok?
We're goin' outside for a smoke.
Bye. Behave.
So, what do you do?
I work in a jewelry store where people make their own jewelry.
Did you make those? Do you make your bracelets?
I made this one, and I made this.
It's nice.
So, what's that called? Would you be, like, an artist?
No, I just help people make jewelry.
It's just a job for now.
Do you like what you do?
Yeah, I love it.
Yeah? Why?
'Cause you'll just be sittin' around like this, and all of a sudden that gong goes off.
You go tearing out of the firehouse, go down the street...
...and fight your way into some building...
...dealing with that heat, helping people, you know.
Saving people. It's an amazing feeling.
I can't even imagine what it must feel like to save someone's life.
I mean, how many people do you think you've saved?
Well... Look, actually, I'm...
I'm not a lieutenant. I just...
We were just screwing around. I actually just started, uh...
You suck. Yeah, I got my first fire today, though.
But I did. I got my first fire. It was amazing.
Captain Dennis sent them over.
Thank you. Thanks.
I hate you.
He's gonna be Chief Dennis in another hour.
You suck! Is he even a fireman?
No, he's a truckie. He's a step man. Truckies are search and rescue.
He actually goes in and pulls people out, you know. Dennis has saved people.
Are you a steppie, too?
Not a steppie, a truckie. Oh, Ok.
But, no, I'm on the engine. I'm a pipe man.
I actually hold the nozzle and put the fire out.
That's cool.
I think it's amazing what you guys do.
I mean, you go into burning buildings...
...when everyone else is running out.
I mean... I couldn't do that.
It's the job.
What's goin' on, guys? Not much, man.
Nice. Nice one, guys. How you doin'?
Jack Morrison! Phone call!
Some woman named Linda claiming you to be the father of her child.
Ohh!
Hello. Hey, how you doin'?
No. Uh, yeah.
Uh, fires, no. But I did have a goose.
A goose in my locker. It was huge.
Crapped all over my stuff.
Come on, Jack, you startin' a phone-sex business here?
Go ahead and tell her you love her, Jack.
Hey, look, I gotta go. Can I call you later?
Ok. Bye.
Aw! Sweet stuff.
Sweet stuff!
Irish Car Bomb? Come on, Mike.
Don, you want one?
Linda! Linda! Hey!
Hey, hold up. This must be the lovely Linda.
Hi. Nice to meet you. Frank, Linda.

How you doin'? I think you know him.
Uh-huh. Margarita sends her love. Ah, Margarita.
That's Captain Kennedy. How do you do?
Hi. I've heard a lot about you. Yeah?
Yeah, you wear really sexy boxers, right? With red love hearts on them?
Oh, gosh.
A little too tight. Ah, sit, have a seat.
What are you...? I had to.
Linda, have you ever had one of these? No, don't do it.
What is this? Oh, it's an Irish Car Bomb.
Yeah. Here, you put it in like this...
...let it drop right in there, and chug it all at once.
Are you doing one? You're gonna love it. Ready? You ready?
Oh, it's gonna make me sick. Come on. Now...
One, two, three.
Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink...
Come on! Go, go, go, go, go, go!
Go, go, go, go!
Wow.
Oh, my God.
What was that?
I'm going to be so sick tomorrow.
Ohh!
Let's get another shot!
I think I gotta slow down a bit.
No, you gotta get wasted at a shift party. That's tradition.
No, no, no, Jack, the lady knows her limitations. Let her go. Send her home.
Are you calling me a lightweight?
Yeah. Lightweight.
Ohh! Stand back!
Ok. Last one to empty their glasses runs naked around the bar.
We got a challenge! Oh, we got a race here!
We got a challenge. Ok, Ok.
All right. Loser takes off all their clothes.
Call it.
Ready, on three. One, two, three.
No, no, no. What the hell is that?
I said last to empty their glass. Did I say anything about drinking it?
Tom, the lady's right, Tommy. Ohh.
See, oh, we got a cute one here now, huh?
Take it off! Take it off! I was very clear.
Take it off! Take it off!
Take that.
Oh, please kill me.
I like this. Hm?
Oh. My mom gave it to me.
You know what this is? Mm-mm.
It's a Claddagh ring.
You know, if it's pointed down...
...then it means that you're free.
And if it's pointed up towards your heart...
...then it means that you belong to someone.
Clear.
Come on, Lenny. Let's go.
Go.
Oh, God.
Jack!
IC, Ladder 12. Requesting air rescue to deploy.
Jack.
Oh, God. Oh, God.
Jack!
Oh, God.
I need a goddamn progress report, Ladder 49.
Ladder 49 to Command.
Be advised we have structural collapse inside.
There's a huge amount of debris. There's no way around it.
I don't care what your problem is. Just keep goin'.
We're gonna need some equipment up here.
Equipment's on its way. Copy that, Chief.
IC from Ladder 42.
We are on side two, awaiting instructions. Over.

And after you have loyally served in His kingdom on Earth...
...may He welcome you into the kingdom in heaven. Amen.
And may Almighty God bless you in the name of the Father...
...and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen. Amen.
You may now kiss the bride.
I now present Mr. And Mrs. Jack Morrison.
Your husband's an excellent firefighter.
Look after him for me, will you?
I'll help him look after himself.
Even better.
Whoa.
Teach Jack this stuff.
All right, this next song goes out to our newlyweds...
...by special request.
Uh, Frank, Don...
I need you up here, uh, immediately, please.
Whoo! Come on, guys.

Hey, Jack, get up here!
Here we go. No, no, you goin', you goin'.
We'll be right back. Come on, buddy.
Come here and sit down. Join the club.
Well, honey, we aren't sitting far enough away.
How you doin'?
Captain Kennedy? You the new rookie?
Yeah. Jack Morrison.
Keith Perez. Office is back there.
Thanks. How you guys doin'? What's up?
Welcome to Engine 33. Ok, all right.
Thank you. Thank you, Captain. All right. See ya.
So, Keith, you Catholic?
Yeah.
Are you a virgin? No, Father.
So you think it's funny to fornicate with loose women?
Uh, no, no, not at all.
Well, if you wanna have sex, you should get married.
I can't. Why?
It's not allowed. What do you mean, it's not allowed?
Well, the church doesn't allow two men to get married, Father.
Excuse me?
I'm gay.
Hey, how did you know that? Yeah, we got him, baby!
Ohh, really? What?
Did you tell him?
What's up with that?
God, it's like they're having a love affair.
Girls. Green beers. Here we go. Green beer.
I'm good. What?
I'm good. I'm not drinking. You can have it.
Uh, Linda, it's Saint Paddy's. It's Ok.
I'm not gonna drink. I'm just gonna grab a Coke from the bar.
What, are you pregnant?
What? You're kidding.
Baby, I was gonna tell you later tonight...
...but I wanted to surprise you.
You're kidding? No! Linda's pregnant.
Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Turn down the music! No more drinks for Linda.
Doubles for Jack. He's gonna be a father!
Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack!
Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack! Jack!
Drinks are on Jack! Drinks are on me!
Drinks are on Jack!
Uh-oh.
Keep your money. Save it for the baby.
Hey, you know, Jack, you can't have a baby...
...without a shower.
Great.
Eighteen hundred block of Suffolk Street...
...between Lafayette and Harris Place.
Investigator reported smoke in the area.
Charge the line!
I'm getting too old for this shit. You got that right.
All right, let's see if this fire's walking on us.
Dennis, cut a hole in that roof.
Ray, open up that skylight. Yes, sir.
Engine 15 to Engine 12, uh, switch to Command channel.
This is bullshit, man. A two-story dumpster.
Let it burn.
This whole block is vacant. Let it all burn.
Stop your bitchin', little brother.
We'll be back next week.
Hey, Ray, I got an idea.
Why don't you stop talking and start doing...
Ray? Dennis!
Aah!
Dennis!
Man down! Dennis!
Man down!
Tommy! Get the door!
Mayday! Mayday! Firefighter down!
Come on! More line! I need more line!
Evacuate now! Evacuate now!
Activate the alarm! Come on! Evac!
Evac! It's comin' down! I need more line!
No! We can get him! It's no good. It's no good!
It's no good!
Yep. Marlene keeps askin' me to come home.
She's cryin'. Thankin' God I wasn't up on that roof.
I just wanna go home and hold my kids.
This is it. Let's line up, guys.
I want you guys to take as much time off as you need.
Ok?
Nothin' like this has ever happened in this house before.
It was the beams. Never saw a roof go down so quick.
It shouldn't have happened.
What do you mean?
He wasn't paying attention.
What? Are you saying it was Dennis's fault?
Just shut up and wash them dishes, rookie.
You know, you're real good at pickin' on rookies, man.
Fuckin' asshole.
Hey! Hey!
What the hell's goin' on here?
Huh?
I come back from tellin' a mother that her son is dead...
...and this is goin' on in my house.
In my house!
We deal with this by sticking together.
We take it. We learn from it.
And we get back on the goddamn truck.
And that's how we honor Dennis!
You got that?
Anybody think of lowerin' the flag?
Do it.
Gathering our prayers together...
...let us pray now in the way that Jesus taught us.
Our Father, who art in heaven...
...hallowed be Thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done...
...on Earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread...
...and forgive us our trespasses...
...as we forgive those who trespass against us;
...and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Eternal rest grant to him, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace.
May his soul and the souls of the faithful departed...
Detail, present arms!
Color guard, present arms!
Detail, order arms!
Color guard, order arms!
You don't think that might fall apart?
Well, I hope not.
So I'm thinking about changing jobs.
What do you mean?
Uh, goin' to search and rescue. Move the truck.
Does that mean you'd be taking Dennis's place?
Oh, no, you can't think that way.
Well, would you?
Hey, Cap, this stuff is great.
That's my grandfather.
And, uh, that's his helmet.
These are my dad's. That's him.
One of these he got, uh, after he passed away.
This one.
It's a Medal of Valor. Yeah.
So, what's goin' on?
Oh, there's something I wanted to talk to you about. Um...
I was thinkin' about transferring to the truck.
Well, jeez, what the hell you want to do that for?
You're an engine man. Truck's a whole different thing.
You know... no water between you and the fire.
No hose line to guide you out if you get lost in the smoke.
It's not a good idea.
Yeah, I know all that, Cap.
I love being on the pipe. It's just...
It's just what?
It's what I want, Mike.
Well... you know, give it a try.
But you gotta tell me somethin'.
If this isn't for you, you tell me right away.
You promise?
Yes, sir.
Oh, my God.
Somebody!
It's over there.
Can you see me?
Stay down! Stay down! We're comin' to get you!
I got this. I'll try not to drop you.
You're not afraid of heights, are you, Jack?
All right, let's gear up.
Number ten this side, hold your position.
