The 118 arrives at a scene where a guy had been shot. "We've been here before." Hen says as everyone gets out of the truck. "When?" Buck and Y/N say in unison. "Before you two joined us." Bobby replies. After the flashback to a year ago before Hen cuts up the guys shirt. "The bullet she fired at him... Did it fly out of the tree when it blew up?" she says.
The guy starts wheezing and shaking before eventually falling still. "Karma's a bitch." Hen says. After the call everyone goes back to the firehouse where Chimney held a blood drive.
"So I want to thank everybody for donating today. I don't know if you know this or not, but 90% of all the blood given to patients in the Los Angeles area comes from volunteers. I know that we all put our asses on the line in the field every day to save people, but today, you're saving people, and all it's taking is a tiny prick of a needle. So simple, even Mr. Buckley can't mess that up." Chimney says and he earns a salute from Buck.
"You still at it, huh? How'd you do?" Bobby asks Chim. "Incredible. Everyone donated. Some people came in on their day off." Chimney says. "That's great. All right, well, let's wrap it up. We gotta start our shift." Bobby says walking away but getting stopped by Chimney. "Uh, hold up. Looks here like I am two pints shy of my goal for the day."
"Well, that'll give you something to work towards next time." Bobby replies. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're the captain of this house, and you're the only one who didn't participate." Chim responds. "I don't like needles, end of story." Bobby says.
"Oh, come on. Captain, come on. You gotta donate." Hen tells Bobby. "I don't give blood. All right? I never give blood. When I was a kid, they tried to take my blood and I bit the doctor." Bobby says and he gets laughs from Buck, Y/N and Hen.
"It's not funny. And one time someone tried to take my blood as an adult... didn't go well." Bobby says remembering how he passed out while he was going to give blood and Hen, Buck and Y/N snicker.
Chimney runs over to him "Bobby? Bobby, hold... Wait. Hold on. Hold on. All right, listen, I get it. I really do, okay? But I really need you to do this for me, all right? Look... I'm alive because that rebar hit my head at just the right angle, and because I had the best damn fire and rescue team to get me to the hospital and the best surgeons in the world once I got there.
But I got ten pints of blood, donated blood, given by the very generous people of this city. Now I told you, I just... I wanted to do this blood drive cause I wanted to give a little something back of what I was given. And expressing my gratitude like this- it balances me out with the universe. Now you and everybody else here asked me how they could help with my recovery. Well, this is how." Chimney says as Hen, Buck and Y/N step closer.
Bobby looks between the four of them "I hate all of you." he says earning more laughter. "Thank you. Thank you." Chimney says and he walks away. "You love us." Hen says. "You're gonna need this. Just squeeze!" Buck tosses him the ball. "You got this!" Y/N assures as she, Hen and Buck walk away from Bobby in the other direction.
