"All right, what is our risk of flooding here?" Jackson asks the maintenance guy as they stand at the door of the E.R with Ava and Owen.

"Oh, you got water pumps. You got sandbags." The maintenance guys lists to them.

"The lights keep flickering.Now are the generators..." Ava says to him.

"I tested 'em last month.Listen, you guys got
patients to worry about.You take care of them.
This... this hospital's my patient." He says to them as he walks away.

"These beds are filling up fast." Ava says to Owen as they walk over to Richard.

"Yeah, people think this is the safest place to sit out a storm.Half these people aren't even sick.
They're just scared." Richard says to them as they nod before getting back to work.

"Alex , if you're free,the nicu needs help getting
all these babies out of here." Ava says to him as she sees Jackson taking the babies out.

"I thought Arizona was overseeing this.Has anyone seen her?" Callie says to them as Ava shrugs before going to help where she can.

Ava was checking over some of the patients as Jackson walks over to her. "How's everyone looking?" He asks her.

"Good most them aren't injured they came here for shelter what about you?." Ava says to him as she stands up.

"Apart from the lights been out and not being able to see anything things seem great." Jackson says sarcastically as Ava chuckles at him.

"I just hope Meredith is okay they had to take her for an emergency c-section." Ava says to him as he kisses her head.

"She'll be fine and so will the baby." Jackson reassures her as they hear a crash as they watch the bus flip over and catch on fire as they rush out to the help people.

"Hurry! Hurry!" Ava tells them as they help the patients down.

"I smell gas." April says to Matthew and Ava.

"There's a fuel leak somewhere." Matthew says to the girls.

"We were coming from the church,trying to wait out the storm." One of the passengers says to them.

"Careful." Jackson says as helps the guy.

"The roof, it caved in on us.We had nowhere else to go." He continues to tell them.

"We've got to get everyone away from this fire." Ava says to all of them.

"Easy. Easy." Jackson says as he helps one of them down off of the bus.

"All right, if you can walk, let's get you inside! This way!" April says to them as Ava helps a patient inside.

"We're gonna need to setup an emergency triage inside.We're gonna need meds.Bailey, can you handle this?" Ava says to her as Bailey looks up at her.

"Y... yeah. Uh, Murphy!" Bailey says as they run inside.

"We gotta move, Hunt.This thing's gonna blow." Callie says to Owen.

"Avery, hurry up!" Owen calls out to him.
-
"Where are Hunt and Avery?That fire's getting bigger." Callie says as Ava looks over at the bus as part of her begins to worry.

"Where are the pain meds?I got a patient in pain over here." April says to Bailey.

"I... I tried to get the meds.The machine, it... it
won't open without power.I can't get it to open." Bailey tells them as she looks around at the patients.
