Maya picked up her radio, "Herrera what's it like in there, I got Dixon breathing down my back and I got SWAT and PD waiting for the signal to go in" Maya called in. "Bad idea" Andy replied speaking on her radio. "Herrera I need your eyes and ears in there, not your opinion" Maya explained. "Sullivan is talking him down, he is relating to him, police and guns will make this much worse, we need time" Andy explained. "How much?" Maya asked, "As much as you can give" Andy answered as she closed the blinds.

Travis and Emmett were heading back to the engine, "Bishop, Adjacent buildings all cleared" Travis reported. "Good, check buildings behind the store and then return to me" Maya ordered, "Copy" Travis replied putting his radio down. "Return to her near the explosives, at what point do we save our own lives?" Emmett asked as he was taking something out of the Engine.

As Emmett took out Pylons a metal axe fell, "Damn it" Emmett said, "Pull yourself together Probie" Travis said picking it up and putting it back in. "Sorry, I'm trying the best I can" Emmett apologized. "Well, your best isn't good enough" Travis stated grabbed the Pylons from Emmett, Emmett looked at Travis. "I think you're making this personal" Emmett stated, Travis turned and looked at Emmett, "I think you're used to be handed things, just because your old man runs the department doesn't mean everything is easy for you, and Probie, I'm not taking this personal you're failing at the job Probie" Travis explained running with the Pylons. Emmett stopped and took a breath in and then out and ran after Travis.

Andy listened as Sullivan and Charlie talk about their experiences and talking about people in their lives who took their own lives. "Let me help you, Charlie, we can't let the enemy win" Sullivan explained. Sullivan wrapped his hands around Charlies covering the Grenade as well, "What are you?" Charlie asked. "I'm here Charlie, Please let me help you" Sullivan talked eye to eye with Charlie

Warren watched as Pruitt was putting firefighter boots on the stairs of city hall, "Do all those boots really represent all the dead firefighters?" Warren asked as Pruitt stood beside him. "No it's supposed to represent dead firefighters" Pruitt explained. "That's very poetic" Warren commented, "Well Chad is quite the poet" Pruitt joked. Warren laughed a little, "No seriously Chad makes you question what kind of mark you wanna leave in the world" Pruitt explained. Warren smiled as they saw all the boots on the stairs.

Chief Dixon stormed over to Maya, "BISHOP!!! this has gone on for too long get my son off this team" Chief Dixon addressed. "This is my team" Maya replied, "That is my kid" Chief Dixon replied back. "Who works for me, you think letting your son watch from the sidelines will help will guess what it won't" Maya explained.  Chief Dixon forced his hand down giving a signal, "Sir what are you doing?" Jack asked as he saw the Police moving.

"Something I should have done a while ago, you're out of time Captain Bishop" Chief Dixon explained as SWAT was getting ready. "What is going on we just saw SWAT go up to the roof," Travis asked standing behind them with Emmett. "Chief Dixon you are putting my team in danger" Maya stated.
