Early that morning before heading out of the locker room Kenna, with a few textbooks and notebook in her arms, was greeted by Kelly.
Kelly: "Morning."
Kenna: "Morning."
Kelly: "Hey. How are the Darden kids doing? You talked to Heather at all?"
Kenna: "Uh, yeah and I guess, as good as can be expected. It's not easy losing a parent at a young age. You seen 'em?"
Kelly: "Yeah."
Kenna: "I hear they're coming to the barbecue."
Kelly: "Good."
Kenna: "Yeah." she said before walking out.

Otis: "Hey, hey, check it out."
Cruz: "Oh, yeah! Best benefit all year, boys!" he exclaims as they enter the common room.
Vargas: "He's not lying."
Mouch: "We're there when you feed us."
Kenna: "And he's not lying either."
Cruz: "Hey, you know about fire fans, Peter Mills?"
Otis: "They're chicks who follow firemen like flies to honey."
Cruz: "Bees, Otis. 'Bees to honey.'"
Otis: "Whatever, we're still the honey. Hey, Lieutenant, why do we have a goat on our truck?"
Matt: "Years ago, Truck 81's first fire was at a goat farm in little Italy."
Otis: "Really?"
Matt: "Mm-hmm."
Mouch: "Nah. They used to have a goat at the station so they didn't have to mow the grass."
Otis: "Huh. I thought that's what candidates are for."
Kenna: "Yeah, neither of those explanations sound true." she remarks, while Cruz and Otis were laughing at his comment.
PA: "Smoke-eater in the house."
Cruz: "No way." he says as they all get up and head to the apparatus floor.
Herrmann: "Hey!"
Everyone: "Hey, Hermann!" they greet him through cheers and laughs.
Herrmann: "Hey!"
Otis: "Welcome back. Jesus, man."
Herrmann: "They ticked a nerve in my leg. I may not walk straight again."
Vargas: "Candidate, get him a chair!"
Herrmann: "Thanks, kid." he grunts out, "Ah, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a second fellas, are any of my kids around here? My wife or her parents?"
Otis: "No, why?"
Herrmann: "What the hell? I'm healed! Oh, I'm healed!" he yells out while doing a dance.
