JJ only slows down when they arrive at a neighborhood, where he keeps pressing the horn until he parks the car right on the driveway of a house with an ambulance parked in front of it. JJ quickly gets out, "Ricky!" Yells JJ and Rosa realizes the last time she was here. This Ricky was stitching up her gunshot wound. She climbs out of the back of the truck just like JB.
"Are you good?" Kie looks at Pope while Sarah and John B help him out of the car.
"Ricky! Hey bro! Ricky! Ricky!" Yells JJ and runs to the front door which he shakes "Hey, Ricky!" Ricky walks to the glass door and looks at JJ, "Not today."
"Ricky, hey, I got a problem bro! I know you're mad at me!"
"Remember that time you stole my ambulance?"
"Yeah. I know. I know. I know you're mad." JJ looks at his cousin who gives him the middle finger and slams the door, "No! Don't do that!"
"No! Please! Please, we need help!" Cries Rosa, who by now is also at the front door, banging on it, "He got stung by a wasp! He's having a reaction! Please help!" JJ runs to a window, which he knocks on, "Hey! Yeah, he..."
"Please help!" cries Rosa desperately and JJ bangs on the window again, "He can't breathe, Ricky!" "Ricky!" Shouts John B, who is supporting Pope along with Kie, Rosa bangs on the door again "He's right here, please!"
"Who can't breathe?" Asks Ricky as he opens the door and immediately looks at Pope, John B points at Pope, "Look at him! Help my friend!" Pope wheezes while his head is hanging low. The teens look at the man with the black curls who looks away for a moment and considers, causing John B to call out frantically "Help!"
"All right" Ricky opens the door, "Jesus Christ."
Sarah and Rosa immediately rush into the house and throw the folded laundry off Ricky's dining room table. "You know, I wouldn't come to you if it wasn't an emergency" JJ looks at his cousin seriously while he and John put B Pope on the table where Rosa was lying a while ago. "Hang in there, buddy" JJ stands next to Pope, "Hang in there."
"What's wrong with him?" He looks over at Rosa who is standing across from him, "Wasps!" He raises his eyebrows, "Wasps?" Rosa nods "Yes!" Ricky looks at the others in turn, but his gaze stays on Rosa, "Is he allergic to wasps?" Rosa looks to Pope "Well, it clearly looks like it." Ricky nods "Okay."
"A beehive worth of wasps" John B looks at Ricky until JJ nudges him, "Raise his legs!" JJ takes Pope's left leg and John B takes his right while raising them at the same time.
"What's his name?" Ricky puts a hand on Pope's shoulder.
"Pope" Sarah says anxiously and Ricky nods, "Pope. Hey, Pope?" Pope is breathing heavily and Ricky looks to the others, "Hang tight. I gotta get my kit." He turns around and looks for his kit.
