06:12Truck, move around the building.
06:13Try to find another entrance for a primary search.
06:15See if we can keep that fire at bay until an engine company arrives.
06:18You got it, chief.
06:19All right.
06:19Ballard, Herman, let's get some extinguishers.
06:22Go ahead.
06:2251 to Maine.
06:23I'm requesting a still-in-box alarm with an EMS Plan 1 at my location.
06:26And an ETA on that engine company.
06:29There's another working fire in the area.
06:31First engine is five to seven minutes out.
06:44This way.
06:45Come on up.
06:45Come on.
06:47Back here.

06:53Sir.
06:56Claire, Claire.
06:57Is there anybody else in there?
06:58There are more vendors setting up.
07:00What is this place?
07:01Textile market.
07:02Maybe 10 or 15 shops.
07:05One of the kiosks got fired near the back.
07:08We all got trapped.
07:09I got her.
07:10Come with me.
07:11We're going to get you something for that cop, okay?
07:13Get in there.
07:14Squad.
07:14Mask up.
07:15Copy.
07:18Here we go.
07:20You think somebody made it out?
07:23Well, the door's popped open.
07:24Someone went in.
07:26Chief!
07:26We found an open door on the Bravo side.
07:29We're going in.
07:29That next engine's five to seven minutes out.
07:31Don't overcommit.
07:32You're on your own for now.
07:34Copy that.
07:34We'll see how deep we can get.
07:36But the fire's rolling back here.
07:37Let's force a pass.
07:40Hit it, Ballard!
07:41Copy.
07:46Let's move.
07:48Fire department, call out!
07:52Hang on!
07:55Chief!
07:56It's a maze in here.
07:58The spot fire's everywhere.
08:00We're going to take the Bravo side.
08:01Copy.
08:02Squad, take the Delta side.
08:03Copy that!
08:04I have no access to the other shops, Chief.
08:08We're preaching once now to see if we can find more victims.
08:11Copy that.
08:12Pull out if it gets too hot there.
08:13Copy that!
08:15Hey, hey, hey!

10:31Let's go!
10:31Let's go!
10:34Medic!
10:3661!
10:39All right, keep an eye on his arm.
10:40He's got to save that burn.
10:42There's no burn that I can see, but he's breathing pretty rough.
10:45We got her!
10:45There may be more common.
10:46Hurry up, hurry up!
10:47Copy!
10:48Come on, sir.
10:49Too many advocates!
10:49We have to keep up here!
10:56You can have to keep up here!
10:56Chaos Guard, there are holes in the hole!
10:56Save on fire!
11:09raptors!
11:09This is one of theThe prácts!
11:10Will all now be seen by the car21s!
11:18I won't feel so i'm going to try it yes!
11:19I'm going in.
11:19Right behind you.
11:20Like hell you are.
11:21Whatever just collapsed in there fell without warning.
11:23Chief, there's still a chance that...
11:25Engine leads the way.
11:26Start running a hose line.
11:29Phone is hurt, Chief.
11:30Kep and I are bringing him out now.
11:32Have medic standing by.
11:38Building's clear.
11:40Almost there, buddy.
11:41We got you.
11:41Hang on.
11:42Hang on.
11:45Okay.
11:46We got you.
11:48Let's load him up.
11:4927.
11:5081.
11:51Run two lines.
11:52We're going offensive.
11:53Nobody re-enters the building.
11:54Copy that.
11:55Let's go.
11:55Let's go.
11:56Let's go.
12:01Where's it hurt, Tony?
12:02I have a right side.
12:06Not bad.
12:07Uh, well, I've seen a lot worse.
12:09Just hang in there, okay?
12:10Let's stabilize it with my legs.
12:12On it.
12:35I knew something was going to happen.
12:38I could feel it in my bones.
12:39This wasn't on you.
12:41There wasn't a trace of brown smoke.
12:42No sign of firing the trusses.
12:44Yeah, Cruz.
12:45It came down out of nowhere.
12:46We had just cleared the last room when, bam, never heard it coming.
12:51If you guys were even two steps closer.
12:55Yeah, well, they weren't.
12:57This never would have happened if we'd had an engine company with us from the start.
13:00This is exactly why you don't decommission Riggs on a whim.
13:05Hey.
13:06Bye.
13:07Okay.
13:08He's doing great, all things considered.
13:10The doctors don't think that the metal slap penetrated any organs, but they're bringing
13:14him up for a CT scan.
13:15When can we see him?
13:16It'll be probably a few hours.
13:18Well, this sounds promising.
13:21Might as well head back, wait for any news.
13:25Chief, if you don't mind.
13:25If you ride with me, we'll debrief on the drive.
13:29Well, they'll keep us posted.
13:31I'll be back at the firehouse.
13:32I'll see you there.
13:42Hey, Lizzie.
13:43Check this out.
13:48Ow.
13:57How much time to add?
14:02Damn.
14:04Not enough.
14:06Yeah, I gotta go.
14:08Boo.
14:12I'll call you later.
14:14Glad to know your squad guy's gonna be okay.
14:16Yeah, same.
14:17Oh, uh, think about what you want to do over the weekend.
14:20I'm up for anything.
14:22Oh.
14:22Yeah.
14:23Okay.
14:31The place was a maze, which would have been tricky enough, even if every shop didn't
14:36have highly flammable materials in it.
14:39Sounds intense.
14:40Yeah.
14:42How's Tony doing?
14:43Docs say he'll be laid up for a couple weeks, but all things considered, I'd say he's pretty
14:48damn lucky.
14:49Hey.
14:50Hey, kid.
14:50Can I grab you for a second?
14:52Sorry.
14:52Yeah.
14:53Hey, let's, uh, let's bat around some ideas for a great first stage role.
14:56Just something to really set the tone.
14:59Yeah.
15:03Hey, what's up?
15:04So, we let Annabelle skip school today, you know, because of everything.
15:10Yeah.
15:10And Cindy, she's gotta go to work, and Annabelle, she says that she doesn't feel like staying
15:16at home by herself.
15:18So, Cindy, she's gonna drop her off in a minute, and I'm just wondering if you're good with
15:23her, you know, hanging out here for a while.
15:25Of course.
15:26Yeah.
15:27Whatever you guys need.
15:28It's her house.
15:30Yeah.
15:32I appreciate that.
15:33Yeah.
15:37Hey, kiddo.
15:40Sorry, Dad.
15:42I got dressed and everything.
15:43I just couldn't.
15:45It's okay, hon.
15:46All right?
15:46Don't be sorry.
15:48Go inside.
15:49Grab a snack, all right?
15:50Just go hang out in my office, and I'll come and find you in a minute.
16:05I know.
16:06I thought things would get better with time, but it just seems like it's getting worse,
16:11doesn't it?
16:12Yeah.
16:13And I don't know if we're helping.
16:16What do you mean?
16:17I don't know.
16:17I mean, I know PTSD is a real thing.
16:21Yeah.
16:22But what if we're indulging this a little too much?
16:26You saw her last night.
16:28It's not like she was faking it.
16:30I know.
16:31But letting her stay home every time she's feeling anxious, that can't be the answer.
16:38We need to get her in to see someone.
16:41Don't we?
16:44Okay, yeah.
16:46Well, I'll try and talk to her today.
16:49Good luck with that.
17:07That was fast.
17:09They sent a deputy district chief?
17:11That's not good, is it?
17:12No, it probably means they want someone's head.
17:21Chief Creston?
17:22Chief Pascal.
17:25I'll take it they sent you here to do an investigation.
17:28Well, yeah, that's protocol when a firefighter gets injured, as you know.
17:33You're the injured man's lieutenant?
17:35Acting lieutenant, sir.
17:37Joe Cruz.
17:37All due respect, chief.
17:39I don't know what you've heard, but you should know Cruz did everything by the book on this one.
17:43It's operating in extremely challenging fire conditions with a three-man crew and no engine.
17:48Still managed to save three civilians.
17:50Yeah, Chief Pascal.
17:50If they want to bring someone up on charges, they ought to start by looking at the genius who decided
17:55to decommission those engines, not Cruz.
18:00It's not Cruz we're looking at, chief.
18:03It's you.
18:13How long have we known each other, chief?
18:1530?
18:1635 years?
18:17I hope this doesn't have anything to do with our history.
18:20Of course not.
18:21You think I'm being tough?
18:22What are you sitting in front of that incident review board?
18:25We were totally outmanned.
18:26That's a fact.
18:28We didn't have any water, for God's sake.
18:29Well, you didn't evacuate when you should have.
18:32That's a fact.
18:33Uh, to be honest with you, sir, I...
18:38Based on my read of smoke and fire conditions, there's no chance in hell that beam should have collapsed that
18:43early without warning.
18:45Unless the building wasn't up to code.
18:47You're suggesting there was unpermitted construction in that building?
18:50Had to have been.
18:51It's the only plausible explanation.
18:52I had the same thought.
18:54That's why I pulled the building's permit history.
18:56Every subdivision in that structure, fully permitted and inspected by the city in the last year.
19:03Now, there is another plausible explanation, though.
19:06Could it be that maybe you just misread the conditions?
19:14Acting Lieutenant Cruz, why don't you walk me through the incident from your point of view?
19:23Yes, sir.
19:29How's Annabelle doing?
19:32Just, you know, keeping to herself.
19:34When I brought up the whole, uh, therapy topic, she says that chat GPT is all the help that she
19:42needs.
19:43There's no way talking to AI is the same as talking to a legit medical professional.
19:48Exactly.
19:50And that's what you've got to tell her for me.
19:53Me?
19:53Yes!
19:54You are a medical professional yourself, and you are not her mom, you're not her dad, and you've got a
20:00better chance than I do of convincing her.
20:03I mean, I'm not exactly sure that, you know, therapy is the only answer, but it's a start, right?
20:10Fine.
20:11I will give it a shot.
20:14You're the best for Kami.
20:16I'm not so sure about that.
20:18All right, um, you take this to her, it's her favorite, it's turkey with a little head sauce, okay?
20:29You got it.
20:33I mean, chat GPT says anxiety is totally normal after a traumatic experience.
20:38Yeah, I mean, that's not wrong.
20:41Um, but the thing is, talking this kind of stuff out, it, it might help to do it with someone
20:48who has actual emotions.
20:51I probably will go to a shrink, TBH.
20:55Right now, is it cool if we don't talk about it?
20:57It's all anyone wants to do.
20:59Of course.
21:01I'm just here for the free turkey sandwich anyway.
21:10Well, um, how are you with relationship advice?
21:15Really good.
21:16Okay.
21:19So, there's this guy, and, um, we had a really fun night.
21:24And I think I, I kind of like him.
21:28But I think one of my best friends likes him too.
21:31Uh-oh.
21:32Yeah.
21:33I thought she was into someone else, or I never would have gotten together with him.
21:38So, um, do I tell her what happened or not?
21:42Do you kind of like him, or do you really like him?
21:48Uh, I don't think it matters, either way.
21:51What's important is now that I know how she feels, it's not going to happen again.
21:54Then I'd say don't tell her.
21:56It's not worth it.
21:59Yeah.
22:00That makes a lot of sense.
22:13What do you think, Lieutenant?
22:15It's pretty good.
22:16But not great?
22:17I just wonder if it could be a little more difficult.
22:21Hey, Macy, hold up there for a sec.
22:23Herman, can you grab me some webbing out of there?
22:25You got it.
22:38You're simulating a wire entanglement.
22:41Exactly.
22:44There we go.
22:45All right, Macy, go ahead.
22:47You know, when I was a probie, my lieutenant, he used to run the same drill with us, except
22:51he would put down, you know, random pieces of brick and cinder black, and when you bang
22:55your knee at the other, it would hurt like hell.
22:57I bet you learned how to sweep the floor for debris real quick, though.
23:01Bet your ass we did.
23:02Almost there.
23:03There you go.
23:04Got her.
23:05Nice work.
23:09We're not trying to make it dangerous or anything, but the whole point of putting these girls
23:14through real firefighting drills is to challenge them and build up their self-confidence.
23:18Remember what they say in the academy?
23:20Smooth seas do not make a strong sailor.
23:25I think it's crazy how they can set up an incident review panel in one day, but I ordered
23:31a new pair of gloves two months ago and nothing.
23:35Oh, uh, they were in this shop on the Delta side.
23:38If this shop's space build-out was permitted, there must be another explanation for the
23:43collapse.
23:44Tony and Cap, they were right underneath what was this beam.
23:51I still don't know how the hell they walked away from that.
23:59Hey, uh, Chief, um, I don't mean to pry, but something happened between you and Cranston
24:04back in the day?
24:07He was one of my first real partners at the CFT.
24:10Made a difference of opinion on a call that didn't end well.
24:13That's it?
24:22Chris.
24:23Yeah, what do you got, Chief?
24:25I see these bolts.
24:27Yeah, those bolt heads look like they broke right off.
24:30That's not normal, is it?
24:32No.
24:33They're calling buckles.
24:35Bolts usually twist and stretch before they break.
24:39Those bolts look like, it's almost like they were, like they were cut, yeah.
24:45Sure as hell does.
24:48Why would somebody do that?
24:50Excuse me.
24:53You can't be here.
24:58This area is restricted.
25:00I just need...
25:01You know we can't have the subject of an internal investigation anywhere near the scene, Chief.
25:07I understand, but if you look under the base plate, you can clear...
25:10I can't discuss any aspect of this investigation with you, sir.
25:15Not till my work is complete.
25:18Now, please.
25:20Please.
25:49All right.
25:53John said, think about what you want to do this weekend.
25:56I'm up for anything.
25:58And you don't want to hang out with him?
26:00No, I do.
26:02It...
26:05I'm learning that you're a very complicated woman when it comes to relationships.
26:08That's the thing.
26:09This isn't a relationship, and yet he's already assuming that we're hanging out this weekend.
26:15And, like, we're some kind of...
26:19Committed couple.
26:21Novak, from what you've told me, it's not crazy for him to think that.
26:26I mean, I kind of did too.
26:28Everyone 61, person down of unknown causes, 29887 Milwaukee Avenue.
26:38This is ridiculous.
26:40Hi.
26:41I don't know what happened, all right?
26:43They said no allergies, but obviously something happened.
26:47That's right.
26:52Oh, wow.
27:02I didn't know exactly what you two ate.
27:06Salad and soup.
27:07We shared it.
27:08Let's get the chef.
27:09Now?
27:16O2's good, but heart rate's climbing.
27:18Copy.
27:24Hello.
27:25What's that?
27:26It's solidified carbon for cryoplating.
27:28You mean dry ice?
27:29It's a carbon fog meant to chill the plate and enhance the flavor.
27:33Did you put the dry ice in the soup?
27:35I thought it was a garnish.
27:37It's not meant to be eaten, and you were supposed to have told him that.
27:40Okay.
27:41Call in for another ambo and let Ben know we've got two victims coming in with potential esophageal or gastric
27:46perforation.
27:47Copy.
27:48Okay.
27:49We've called for another ambulance to get the both of you checked out.
27:51In the meantime, please take sips of water as much as you can.
27:54It'll help melt the dry ice and relieve some of your pain.
27:57Let's get them some to-go cups, please.
27:59We don't really do that here.
28:02I'll find something.
28:04Okay.
28:05Back up, bambo.
28:05It's three minutes out.
28:06Oh, great.
28:07Okay.
28:07Let's get you both to med.
28:08Let's go.
28:09You got it.
28:11Oh!
28:24Chief?
28:26Who's going to reach out?
28:27Captain Hargrave from OFI called me.
28:30Figured she wouldn't.
28:31What the hell are you thinking?
28:32Stomping around the scene like that.
28:34I had to go take a look for myself, trying to figure out what actually happened.
28:38Those columns that collapsed, I looked under the base plate.
28:40Those molds were sheared clean off.
28:42If the fire is hot enough, they will do that.
28:44I know.
28:45These bolts look like they were cut.
28:48You're telling me this was arson?
28:49I don't know for sure, but deliberately weakening a structure so that it collapses?
28:54That's happened before.
28:55You have got to let OFI handle this, Dom.
29:00You know as well as I do that CFD's looking for any excuse to trim headcount right now.
29:04I'm fighting for my life.
29:08And I could use an advocate.
29:10An advocate?
29:14Really?
29:16Like someone who has your back in a new firehouse, talks up to the chiefs, tells you to ride with,
29:23who to stay away from like that?
29:24I appreciated every bit of advice you gave me back then.
29:27I still do.
29:28You have to leave one, one disagreement on a call, and you cut ties?
29:35That was more than a disagreement.
29:37That call, that was like a nightmare come to life.
29:44That young woman died waiting behind your bed, praying for somebody to find her.
29:51You blamed me for that.
29:54No, Al, I, I didn't blame you.
29:57You might have outranked me, but I could have fought harder.
30:00You respected me at least enough back then that you would have listened.
30:03There was, there was time to do another sweep.
30:06I know it.
30:09We, we, we might have found her.
30:14That was on me.
30:18And I haven't been able to shake it no matter how hard I tried, and that's why I put road
30:23between me and Chicago.
30:29You should have responded when I reached out to you.
30:34I know.
30:43You know, chief, I, I'm not gonna ask you to cross the line.
30:49I just need you to look at those columns and those bolts.
30:54That's all I ask.
30:59And in a fun twist, the hot maitre d'e followed us to the rig and invited us to dinner
31:03there tonight on the house.
31:05Wow, isn't it, like, impossible to get a reservation there?
31:08Won't be for long.
31:09After word gets out, they're serving dry ice to their customers.
31:12But you should come with us.
31:14The food looks amazing.
31:14I appreciate that, but I invited Macy and Kylie to Molly's.
31:18I owe them a beer for all the work they're doing with Girls on Fire.
31:21I mean, Kylie's working on the rosters for the new session as we speak.
31:24No, she's the best.
31:25She really is.
31:26Oh, you guys are gonna have a blast fighting over the hot maitre d'.
31:29Can't wait to hear who wins the prize.
31:45The fire academy?
31:46This is the big secret destination?
31:48Yeah, this is it.
31:51I said I was fine to go to school today, Dad.
31:53I don't get why-
31:54Just trust your old man for once, will ya?
31:56I mean, I have not completely lost my marbles yet.
32:01Fine.
32:02But this absence is on you.
32:03All right.
32:04Okay.
32:07Wow.
32:08What are they doing?
32:10Oh.
32:11They are trying to master their fear.
32:15That's right.
32:16One of the first things that you learn in firefighter training is that fear, it's a logical human
32:23response to certain things, heights, fire, and that fear is totally normal.
32:30It's even good.
32:31You know, fire's dangerous, right?
32:33And overcoming that fear sometimes ain't so easy to do.
32:41Wow.
32:42Yeah, he's pretty good at that, right?
32:44See, that takes a lot of training.
32:46That's the thing.
32:47See, you work really hard at this stuff so that, you know, regular people, they can go on about
32:52their lives and, God forbid, something bad happens, that guys like this, they're here to help.
33:06I heard you're getting sprung already?
33:08As soon as the doc signs off.
33:10Oh, that is a shame.
33:11I was really hoping to get some time off from that ugly mug use.
33:14You will.
33:15Doc says it's going to take a few weeks for this to heal.
33:18You know, the next time a structure's coming down, maybe you don't stand directly under it.
33:21Says the guy who nearly got his eyes burned out.
33:23Well, at least I didn't try to rescue a department store mannequin.
33:26You used a halogen on an unlocked door because you pulled instead of pushed.
33:29I got in.
33:30Hey, you guys, we get it.
33:32You are both terrible firefighters.
33:36Any word on Pascal?
33:38Heavings this afternoon.
33:39They shouldn't be doing this.
33:41Not on my account.
33:42Chief did nothing wrong.
33:44Honestly, with all these budget cuts and everything, I get the feeling that the brass was waiting
33:49for something just like this.
33:50What do you mean?
33:51Well, if the CFD wants to thin the ranks, firing an officer for just cause is the cheapest way.
33:58They just need a reason.
34:01And now they have one.
34:06In fact, early forms of jujitsu were used by samurai, so that's cool.
34:10It is, yeah.
34:14So what's up?
34:17As much as I appreciate learning all the martial arts history, I have a feeling it's not why
34:22you stopped by.
34:24So, come on.
34:25Talk to me, Lizzie.
34:27Yeah, okay.
34:28Yeah, you got me there.
34:28The thing is, I have so much fun hanging out with you, but I just, I wanted to make sure
34:40that we're on the same page.
34:42I mean, you and me, we're casual, right?
34:51I mean, we haven't really been acting that way, or talking that way, to be honest.
34:58I'm sorry if that was on me, but I hope we could just move past that and keep seeing each
35:04other.
35:07I'm not in this just for the hookup, Lizzie.
35:11I like you a lot.
35:19I like you, too.
35:24Okay.
35:26Um, look, Lizzie, if you're not seeing any kind of future in this, then I think that
35:36maybe it's best we just end it now before anyone gets hurt, you know?
35:49So, this isn't like a trial?
35:51Not yet.
35:53Chief Cranston's gonna present his conclusions, make a recommendation, they'll ask some questions,
35:58and with a little luck, that'll be that.
36:00Yeah, well, what if it isn't?
36:01What if they decide to draft formal charges?
36:04Let's jump off that bridge when we get there, Chief.
36:06For you now, I would recommend...
36:08Excuse me, everyone.
36:10Uh, unfortunately, today's hearing's gonna need to be postponed.
36:15We just heard that Chief Cranston was working a 3-11 on the south side early this morning,
36:21and he collapsed on the scene.
36:24Was it a heart attack?
36:26Looks like it.
36:28Is he okay?
36:33He didn't make it.
36:49And that's how Dr. John Frost ended it.
36:52Over a cup of lukewarm hospital coffee.
36:55But it's kind of you that ended it, right?
36:58I mean, it sounds like he really likes you.
37:00Yeah, well, he...
37:02He doesn't know me all that well.
37:04Hm.
37:05Is there, um, someone else that you like more?
37:10Is that what's stopping you from wanting to get serious with John?
37:16Yeah.
37:18There are tons of guys.
37:20Um, guys like that.
37:25All right, but...
37:27Okay, you didn't want to commit to 51 at first,
37:30but at the end of the day,
37:31once you did, it turned out to be a perfect match.
37:34Wait a second.
37:35Are you trying to convince me to get serious with Frost?
37:39Because you want the hot maitre d'.
37:41Because I will gladly step aside.
37:43I would do that any day of the week for you.
37:45No, no, I am not here for the hot maitre d'.
37:47I am here for the awesome company.
37:49Oh, yeah.
37:52And thanks for being the world's greatest partner.
37:56Hm.
37:57And a great listener.
37:58Thanks.
37:59Right back at you.
38:01Okay, now, let's think of all of the ways that we can get rich
38:05so we can eat at places like this more often.
38:07Oh, yes.
38:08Uh, okay, new, more flattering paramedic pants.
38:11There's definitely a market for that.
38:12Mm-hmm.
38:16Got the first six weeks mapped out.
38:18Pretty damn good, Luke's on it.
38:20Halfway there.
38:22What do you think about doing a Saturday session
38:24over in the drill hall?
38:26Mm.
38:27Red tape's gonna be a beast,
38:29but if you're up for it...
38:31Training chief loves me.
38:32I think I can sell him on it.
38:35Hey!
38:36Hey!
38:37Now it's a party.
38:39So, a New Girls on Fire application
38:41just dropped in my inbox.
38:43Damn.
38:43How many is that now?
38:45I think that makes it 18.
38:46Yes.
38:46But, wait, let me send it to you.
38:48All right.
38:56All right.
38:58Never heard of a Muay Thai, Mal.
39:00Uh, Mai Thai is rum, lime juice...
39:03Yeah.
39:04Looks like you made quite an impression
39:06on Annabelle over at the Academy earlier.
39:09Who said that?
39:10Well, Annabelle did.
39:11So she put in an application for Girls on Fire,
39:14and she wrote a whole essay
39:16about how she wants to be a firefighter,
39:19maybe even squad.
39:21She wants to be a firefighter?
39:24That's pretty damn cool.
39:26I was gonna say, uh, terrifying.
39:33Hope it's good news from the hearing.
39:35Uh, hey, chief.
39:47This is second, chief.
39:48We've lost to a cardiac in the last six months.
39:51I heard about a captain over at 33
39:54diagnosed with lung cancer.
39:56Doesn't have much time.
39:57Harrison?
39:59Oh, yeah.
40:00I knew he wasn't doing well,
40:02but I didn't realize.
40:03It's just so crazy.
40:05How you can cheat death for 40 years,
40:08running into burning buildings,
40:10and then just catches up with you
40:12right when you're getting ready
40:13to sail off into the sunset.
40:15We all give our lives to this job eventually,
40:18one way or another.
40:22I'm sure whatever it is can wait,
40:24don't you think, Captain?
40:27Actually, I think you're gonna want to hear this.
40:29Chief Cranston insisted I put a rush
40:31on the examination of the column bolts
40:32from the incident.
40:38Your hunch was right.
40:39There was something off about those bolts.
40:42They were zinc-plated A307 bolts,
40:45not proper angle bolts.
40:47They weren't up to code.
40:48I thought Cranston told us
40:49that all that work was inspected and permitted.
40:52The initial build-out was,
40:53but turns out the owner did additional work
40:56without pulling permits.
40:57Moved the column to make more space,
40:59and when they reset it,
41:00they used cheap hardware slur bolts
41:01that snapped like pretzel sticks
41:02when that column got stressed.
41:04That's what caused the sudden collapse.
41:06See, Chief, there's no way
41:07you could have foreseen that.
41:09That's what Chief Cranston
41:10was planning to tell the review board.
41:41Chief Cranston was planning to tell the review board.
41:59Chief Cranston was planning to tell the review board.
41:59I think this is the third one
42:00.
42:00I think this is what I'll get anyone
42:00and I don't know it yet.
42:00Male th suitable board
42:01are far now.
42:02We've made a choice Sneands
42:03out of a Lady T$.
