00:56To agent Ruffin at the ETF. Why I think I know who set the Zabel Ridge fire
01:09Morning boss, we got a red flag warning
01:12Yeah
01:13Issued last night for all of Edgewater and Drake counties
01:16It's unseasonably dry lots of unburned fuel out there. It's a perfect storm for a massive wildfire
01:22Exactly. Why do you think I pre-deployed 96 and 58 here?
01:28We need all the hands we can get
01:31And all the info fire reports

02:09Uh, no, I'm good. Thank you if you're not here for breakfast, then I spoke to Ruffin
02:14The ATF is gonna surprise Landon today at home to question him. That's it?
02:19The man killed dad. Hey, hey, this is off of a tip from a teenager who said my mom's boyfriend
02:26Started the fire like they they have to do their due diligence. He's volatile. He's dangerous. That's why we took
02:32Chloe and Tyler to our house to keep them safe
02:37Not we
02:38Manish got me and half the battalion here on pre-deployment. I just
02:43I want to be the one to tell Tyler face to face. Okay, and you can't do that while you're
02:48here doing OT. I get that
02:50But you'll find the time I promise. Yeah
03:07All right guys listen up

08:50beyond the power poles fire's on my side of it this isn't your dirt
08:57yeah well whatever happens on your dirt could end up coming our way and the way that these winds
09:03are picking up well when they do we'll give you a ring how about that so you're saying no to
09:08support
09:09it's walnut grove at risk my town
09:14the way you let zabel ridge rip i'm not doing this edgewater's way you want to keep edgewater's name
09:20out here man we're not going anywhere chief
09:41springer's eye was mine fire doesn't care what was the dirt especially not that fire yeah yeah it's at
09:46100 acres already and in this weather you could eat walnut grove for lunch circle back and take edgewater
09:52for dinner springer needs all the help he can get we all do yeah put me in
10:00here i can help tyler what the hell hitched a ride in the back of your chief's truck what you
10:06mean is you
10:07stowed away hey jake what's the holdup i need my guy all right b handle this
10:19tyler back in the truck no come on i i know you don't want me out here but i'm already
10:25here
10:28out here is is this insanely unsafe so is town landon was bad before what's he gonna do when he
10:36thinks that i called the atf and said he started the fire the first step to locking him up he's
10:44not
10:46locked up you want to help in the truck right here in the front
10:55okay i need you to listen to the radio traffic okay be aware of everything this fire is doing
11:00everything we're doing to it can you do that yeah all right do not leave this truck
11:11hey jake spin me up some weather got you save you some time humidity is at 18 percent
11:23been at this a while chief about fire on this ridge of timer 10 2. that burn scar
11:30i was on that fire for three days yeah i studied that scar sites fire 2019 right you studied it
11:38i lived it i've been doing this job for 35 years so no disrespect well maybe a little as a
11:48chief you're
11:49greener than a frog's ass so of course you've over deployed you've overreacted and you come waltzing up to
11:56my very containable fire like you know everything i don't know everything chief but i do know that
12:04dead water growers have been tapping into that declining water supply and there's a whole lot
12:09of untouched surface fuels just waiting to burn and that would make this fire a lot less
12:13containable no which is why we're playing defense i got hot shots and hoses controlling the head of
12:19this puppy to keep it from cresting over into walnut groves so you just sit back and watch and we'll
12:26all be home by the second half of the niners game no disrespect maybe a little but you don't flank
12:34that
12:34fire pinching it off at the head with some water drops you can get out of control go down that
12:38hill and
12:39run into edgewater so i don't care chief how many years you've been doing this your branded defense could
12:44use a little bit of aggression okay rambo i'll keep this simple as long as this fire's on the drake
12:51county side of the line it's mine you copy i copy but the second that so much as an ember
12:59crosses that
13:01line i'm taking over you copy
13:10you're not gonna like this but uh springer was dead on about the humidity 18 but the winds are
13:17picking up north by northeast all right i need eyes up on that southern ridge up two clicks yeah
13:23springer's got a guy up there yeah but i need my guy up there springer's not looking out for us
13:28here
13:28i've already made that very clear so go be my eyes cap all right on it chief
13:49manny calling for that pre-deployment with his crystal ball
13:54you're expecting a phone call or something yeah word that the atf actually has land in custody
14:02so i don't know what i'm gonna tell tyler well you know at least you have this fire to give
14:06you
14:06some time to think about it not really tyler's here smoking himself here manny's back seat
14:12kids am i right how's the new crop going well they basically hate me
14:19for publicly disowning them at all yeah it's pretty bad yeah but i said i'm sorry i just
14:27i don't know what else to do words don't mean much when you're in the system
14:33show them that you mean it all right but i'm aware that no one has ordered a water drop but
14:41chief
14:41perez anticipates needing one so i need all the available aircraft copy chief chief leone
14:52one of your guys pointed me in your direction i hope that's okay of course we're just a little
14:57busy here right now it's incredible the work that you do i'm i'm very grateful for it i could say
15:04the
15:04same about you as an educator me i i just tell kids how to game the system to get into
15:12berkeley
15:13i think you do it a lot more than that
15:17i know that you've got a lot on your plate which is why i'm here actually i heard that chloe

25:43i see lookout one fire is spotting off back in alpha near the burn scar spot fires
25:49nah my plan's not falling apart you move my engines from that spot in alpha

27:33smoking fire dissipating in division alpha we're back on track chief
27:40tell your chief
27:43maybe i'll write him a letter
27:52our parents kept us a secret from each other
27:57that pissed me off too and hurt
28:04that's not my fault no no my fault you're showing up at your door three years ago and chickening out
28:15three years ago
28:19and i walked away
28:23because it wasn't the right time for me
28:29and now i'm seeing that this might not be the right time for you
28:35so i'll back off
28:39but if it ever is
28:42a year hell 10 years from now
28:46i just want to get to know you dude
28:55three years ago
28:58mom almost lost the house
29:00i almost flunked senior year trying to hold down the job
29:06i could have used a brother back then
29:10more a friend
29:21hey fire's way too close to what'd your chief call it ranger ridge
29:25the fire crests over and it won't be long until all of drake county goes up yeah yeah i see
29:29it i see
29:29it hey i see you might want to see if someone can speed up that next water drop
29:38copy captain dc leone on scene i'll look into it
29:43airbase the next water drop should be on its way where is it you the division chief
29:48this is airbase all air operations grounded due to high winds we'll advise when conditions
29:54approved airbase county line i see we need that water drop on ranger ridge now we can't lose hold
30:00to this thing manny the winds are too high chief current winds are at 30 knots airbase send us the
30:06requested aircraft now before it rips into walnut grove that plan manny this is his plan
30:13to let drake county burn airbase we need one water drop one and we're out of here
30:18i see there is no water drop
30:32first wind isn't dying down tell me about it hey chief we really needed that water drop yeah but it's
30:39too risky to put an aircraft in the air chief hey i don't like this answer any better than you
30:43do but
30:44this is the reality springer's the one who set all this up yeah and then you made the unorthodox move
30:50to claim ic when this fire is right on the county line but whatever we'll get into it later right
30:56now right now right now i deploy my backup plan are you privy to this backup plan no it's the
31:04original
31:04one flank the fire pinch it off kill the water drops now manny's there got one hell of a hell
31:10mary
31:11and one hell of a gamble and where's tyler he's in manny's truck i thought i could keep him safe
31:18trust me you are not in control of any teenage boys impulses oh and i didn't do any better keeping
31:26chloe safe landon is looking for her the hf questioning yeah and then they had to let him go so
31:32the next step is talking to tyler to corroborate your tip so his cooperation is going to be key
31:37all right he'll do anything to keep chloe safe let me go talk to him okay thanks
31:50hey well mom's gonna take you home soon
31:54and i gotta ask you to do something to do what the atf needs to talk to you they can't
32:03put landon
32:04away without more evidence i can't uh i can't no i can't do that you said you wanted help today
32:15right
32:16this is your chance look you've got landon's voice in your head telling you everything that you can't

33:22first time i felt that heat i uh was questioning my life choices
33:30what happened my captain threw me back into training
