00:00Only one nurse remaining, Sidney White.
00:02Help!
00:08Jackson, am I dreaming?
00:15Away from you, I'll come back for you.
00:17If you really love him, then walk away.
00:21My son deserves better.
00:23I even left you in your back with this fucking asshole!
00:25Hey, watch your mouth!
00:26Goodbye, Jackson.
00:27Wait, you're my dad!
00:30No!
00:31Enjoy the chill time, bitch.
00:33Come on!
00:34Why does everyone call me a bastard?
00:36Why do I have a dad?
00:38It was over a decade ago.
00:40Just let it go, Jackson.
00:45Ow!
00:46It's shelter again!
00:48Somebody help, please!
00:50I'm sorry!
00:52I'm sorry!
00:59What is that?
01:00What is that?
01:10Someone called out!
01:11I'm fine!
01:12We've got to go for it.
01:13What's your emergency?
01:14Everybody on this way!
01:15Please do it!
01:16Please do it!

01:53Help!
01:58Kaw!
01:59Only one nurse remaining.
02:00Sidney White!
02:20Jackson?
02:21Am I dreaming?
02:23It's been nearly a decade.
02:30It's been nearly a decade.
02:38Come on!
02:39Come on, Jackson!
02:41Let's go, let's go!
02:43Come on!
02:44You got me!
02:46Come on, let's go!
02:52Yes!
02:5322-13!
02:55New record!
03:00You did amazing!
03:11Thank you!
03:12You're for sure going to ace that firefighter aptitude test.
03:15Why are you leaving me for New York?
03:17Why is summer already over?
03:19Well, I'm not leaving you, Sidney.
03:23Look, I know it's only been one summer, but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
03:33I'm glad I stole you away from that loser, Gary.
03:36Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
03:38Seriously, wait for me.
03:41I'll come back for you.
03:47I love you, Sidney White.
03:50I love you, T.I. Jackson Carter.
03:58Oh.
03:59One more thing?
04:04You ass!
04:06I can't be pregnant.
04:13I have to tell Jackson.
04:24Lorraine.
04:27You shameless tramp.
04:29Are you trying to trap my son with a baby?
04:32No!
04:33No, that's not what that-
04:34Jackson has a bright future ahead of him, and I will not let you ruin it.
04:38Well, get rid of the baby and disappear from his life, or I swear I will destroy everything you have.
04:47But I love him!
04:50We love each other!
04:51If you really love him, then walk away. My son deserves better.
05:08Alright, this is it. I'm gonna put a ring on your finger before I leave.
05:11If he knew about the baby, he'd stay. For me. For us.
05:30Whoa!
05:31Uh, hey!
05:37What are you doing in here?
05:41I'm here to break up with you.
05:48Wait, what?
05:50Break up? Why?
05:51What the fuck?
05:52Is this a fucking joke?
05:53Why are you even left getting your back with this fucking asshole?
05:54Hey, watch your mouth!
05:55Yes.
05:56Gary and I are back together.
05:57I was thinking about it, and his family money can give me the life I've always dreamed of.
06:00And I don't want to worry about losing my partner in a fire someday.
06:01But you've always been supportive of my dreams.
06:02Goodbye, Jackson.
06:03Goodbye, Jackson.
06:31What?
06:48That was hilarious! Did you see his face was priceless?
06:52Gary, go home. We're not getting back together.
06:56What? Well, first you begged me to come out here, and now you push me away?
07:01You psycho bitch!
07:07I'm sorry, Jackson.
07:11I'm so sorry.
07:17Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
07:21But reports are saying that you stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
07:27What was your reason for staying inside?
07:28Well, I'm just doing my job.
07:32Captain Jackson, I just wanted to say, on behalf of my father's hospital, thank you for saving our lives. You are truly a hero.
07:43It's no problem.
07:44You must be tired after all that. You can use a little rest.
07:48Why don't we go back to my VIP lounge and share anything. Have a lot of fun.
07:53Thanks, but no thanks. I actually have to check on a patient. Thank you for your time.
07:57No problem. I'll come with you.
07:58Time to get back to work, Cindy White.
08:04The clock's ticking.
08:05Okay, Vanessa.
08:06Okay, Vanessa.
08:22Jackson?
08:24Excuse me?
08:25That is Captain Jackson Carter to you.
08:29He's LA's hottest, bravest, most badass firefighter.
08:35And he just saved your worthless life.
08:37Vanessa, please. That's not necessary.
08:40Where's his thank you?
08:41You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
08:46And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it. Trust me.
08:52I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
08:55Don't talk her back to me, Cindy.
08:59I'm your boss.
09:01My dad owns this hospital.
09:03And by the way, I am.
09:05I am so sick of your temper.
09:08You know what?
09:10You're fired.
09:15You know what?
09:17You're fired.
09:19What?
09:21Come on, Vanessa. I need this job.
09:23Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you talked back to the boss's daughter.
09:28Come on.
09:30Let's go somewhere more right now.
09:32You know, now that I think about it, there is a new opening for a paramedic in my department.
09:36I would be so honored.
09:38Someone just became available.
09:40Hey, Cindy.
09:43How would you like to join my team?
09:45What?
09:47A paramedic job?
09:48What's the catch, Jackson?
09:50What game is this?
09:55Thank you so much, but I can't accept.
09:59Sorry.
10:01I would be so...
10:02Follow me! Follow me!
10:03Follow me!
10:04I'm sorry.
10:05He just ran past me.
10:06That's okay.
10:09Great!
10:10Just what I need.
10:12More nobodies.
10:13Alright, I'm almost done.
10:15Thank you for saving my mom.
10:19Just doing my job.
10:22Do you have a son?
10:23Uh, yeah.
10:24This is Noah.
10:27Hi, my name is Noah.
10:28Nice to meet you.
10:30Hey.
10:32Nice to meet you.
10:34I'm Jackson.
10:36Wait.
10:38You're my dad!
10:40Noah!
10:42You didn't tell him?
10:44That's not funny.
10:46I'm so sorry.
10:47Um...
10:48We have to go get ice cream!
10:49Yeah!
10:50Right? Let's go!
10:51I love ice cream!
10:57Noah, why did you call Jackson Jack?
10:59He looks like my dad for my dream.
11:07So after she broke up with me, she had a kid with Gary?
11:17Are we ready?
11:20Do you understand?
11:23Who is my dad?
11:24He's a kid.
11:26So your love life is a disaster.
11:28Tell me something I don't know.
11:30But!
11:31But!
11:32Your soulmate's here.
11:34And true love follows!
11:37Is there anything about money?
11:39Love's not paying the rent, honey.
11:41Jackson's job would.
11:45That's not true.
11:46That's not gonna happen.
11:48Okay, well, argue with the cards, honey.
11:50You're fated to take this gig.
11:52Marry the love of your life
11:54and live happily ever after.
11:56Okay, see, this is why I don't live her terribly.
12:00My life has never been this neat.
12:02Okay, well, good thing you don't have
12:04to believe in it for it to be true.
12:08Jackson loves you and I don't need
12:10the cards to know that.
12:12Okay, we're done.
12:14Conversation.
12:16Run all you want.
12:18Bank comes for us all.
12:20Good night. Mark my words, honey.
12:22You two are not over.
12:38What do you want, Vanessa?
12:40Just making sure you're not stealing anything.
12:42Vanessa, strip searcher.
12:44What?
12:46No, are you kidding?
12:48Are we in high school?
12:50Wait, why?
12:52But, strip her top.
12:54She might be hiding medicine under it.
12:56Vanessa, what is this?
12:58Let's go.
13:00No, no, wait!
13:02No, enjoy the chill time, bitch.
13:04Come on!
13:06Fuck!
13:08Vanessa!
13:10Fuck.
13:12Thanks for implementing the new safety measures, Captain Carter.
13:16For the last time.
13:18Call me Jackson.
13:20Just doing my job.
13:22You're too modest, Jackson.
13:24Help!
13:26Somebody help, please!
13:30Sandin?
13:32Hello?
13:33Sandin!
13:34Jackson!
13:35Hey!
13:36Hey!
13:37Can you help me?
13:40Alright, stand back.
13:41Okay.
13:48Wait, turn around!
13:49What?
13:50Okay?
13:51Here.
13:52Jackson.
13:53I'm not looking.
13:54Wait, the door!
13:55You're not looking?
13:56Oh, shit!
13:57Fuck.
14:01Wait, the door!
14:02You're not looking?
14:03Oh, shit!
14:05Fuck.
14:06Great.
14:07Now we're both stuck in here.
14:17Damn.
14:18Is he sexier than I remember?
14:21You know it's rude to stare.
14:23Jerk.
14:27So, when do you have a kid?
14:29When did you come back?
14:30Captain Jackson Carter?
14:34Why are you here?
14:35What do you want from me?
14:36Well, I always said I'd come back.
14:40That was years ago.
14:41We were kids.
14:42Doesn't make it not true.
14:47What about you?
14:49No ring.
14:50No Gary in sight.
14:51I guess that happily ever after didn't work out.
14:53Hey!
14:54You just got fired.
14:55Just take my job.
14:56Okay?
14:57It's a good offer.
14:58No!
14:59I don't need your offer.
15:00I don't need you to rescue me.
15:01Again.
15:02What are you so afraid of?
15:04Think about your son.
15:07He's got a point.
15:08I do need a job.
15:09And money.
15:13Fine.
15:15I'll take your offer.
15:16And I'll be the best paramedic there is on the team.
15:19It'll be your ass getting saved by mine.
15:21I saw her sneak into storage.
15:23She's up to something.
15:28I saw her sneak into the storage room.
15:30She's up to something.
15:32Probably stealing meds or case files or worse.
15:36I'm starting to think she's the one who started to fire.
15:38I saw her.
15:39You're finished thief.
15:44What?
15:45What is it?
15:48Jackson.
15:51But I only locked her in here.
15:53Oh!
15:55Thanks for the confession.
15:56You bitch!
15:57Enough!
15:58Stop embarrassing yourself Vanessa.
16:01I am so sorry for my daughter's behavior.
16:03Miss White, Mr. Carter.
16:05You're apologizing to her?
16:06Shut up!
16:15Well, thank you for saving me again.
16:21Well, I wouldn't call getting us both trapped in that room a bunch of a rescue.
16:26But I'll take it.
16:28Excited to see you at work?
16:30Whatever.
16:36Hello?
16:38Hello, Miss White.
16:39It's Principal Coleman.
16:41Your son got into a fight.
16:42You need to come.
16:43Now.
16:44What?
16:49Noah!
16:50Are you hurt?
16:51Let me see.
16:52Is he hurt?
16:53He's the one who attacked my son!
16:56Oh, I'm sorry.
16:57If...
16:58If you're sending the doctor, I can cover it.
17:00I don't need your money.
17:02I have money.
17:03What I want is this animal, or what you call a son...
17:09Expelled.
17:11What?
17:13You're not gonna do that, right?
17:15Well, per school policy, serious violence does warrant expulsion.
17:20But he started it!
17:21He called me a bastard.
17:23He said...
17:24He called my mom...
17:26A...
17:27A slut.
17:29My mom says to kids like kids don't know your dads, because your moms are total sluts.
17:35Shut up!
17:36Hey!
17:37Don't!
17:38You're legal, you're married!
17:42Shut up!
17:43Hey!
17:44Don't!
17:45You're legal, you're married!
17:50Jackson!
17:51You okay, kidda?
17:52Get going!
17:53How dare you!
17:55Mr. Carter!
17:56Hero of the city!
17:58You know the White family?
18:01I do.
18:03President Collins, I didn't know you allowed such bad decorum.
18:08Excuse me, you little son of a...
18:10Enough!
18:12Mr. Carter, I apologize for this incident, and you, you, you apologize to Noah!
18:19Ha!
18:20No way!
18:21This bastard attacked my son!
18:23This man has saved our school and countless others, and it's a price we could never hope
18:27to repay!
18:30Actually, there is a way to pay it back.
18:32Really?
18:34Well, just tell me how.
18:37Expel that boy.
18:38Expel that boy.
18:44Expel that boy.
18:46Alright?
18:47Son, you are...
18:48Wait, wait, wait, wait!
18:49No.
18:50We don't want to expel him.
18:51We don't?
18:52We don't?
18:53We don't!
18:54We don't.
18:55No.
18:56Both boys were in the wrong.
18:57NOAH!
18:58NOAH!
18:59You said extremely rude things to Noah and I, and you need to apologize.
19:03And Noah, you can't hit someone no matter what they say.
19:07Okay?
19:08You need to say sorry.
19:09My son will not be apologizing, Bart.
19:12I just saved your son from expulsion.
19:17Son?
19:18Say you're sorry.
19:19What?
19:20I'm sorry.
19:21What was that?
19:22I'm sorry.
19:23Good.
19:24Noah?
19:26I'm sorry, I guess.
19:27I think you owe Miss White an apology, too.
19:31I am sorry, Miss White.
19:36Come on.
19:38Say, your mom is a smart cookie.
19:51smart cookie. I shouldn't have tried to expel that boy the same way you shouldn't have tried
19:56to fight him. Next time, just come to us or the principal, okay? Okay. Okay. Nice. Why does Captain
20:07Carter know the whites? Is he Noah's dad? How does Captain Carter know the white family? Does he know
20:19his dad? Okay. Uh, principal Colin, this isn't what it looks like. Oh, no, no. Do not worry,
20:26Miss White. Mum's the worst. You won't get a peep out of me. But there's nothing to- Oh, no. Do not
20:33fret. We're going to take very special care of Noah, both for you and for- Just for you.
20:42So, what were you and principal Collins whispering about? No, nothing. Yeah? It seemed like
20:54something. No, nothing. For you to know about. Ah, excellent qualifier. Hey, you want to race? Yes. Yeah?
21:04All right, go. Come on. Come on. I'm beating you. Come on. Hurry up. Maybe I should tell him he's the father. He's so good with him.
21:17Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Hi. Hey. Can we take a selfie? I love your fire safety TikTok videos. And I adore your calendars.
21:26No, those are bad. All right, yeah. That's that. That's that. Nice.
21:32Uh, Jackson, could I have your phone number? If I'm ever feeling lightheaded in the bath, could I call you for a personal rescue?
21:41Ah, she's bad. Hey! Before you play with your little fan club, can you make sure my kid's okay?
21:46Uh, he was just right here. Dad, he almost just ran in the middle of the street.
21:51Nope. I can't tell him he's the father. I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
21:56Hey, you never answered my question. Oh, uh, in case of emergency, just call 9-1-1. Okay.
22:08Cindy, hold on. Wait up. Sorry about that. That, uh, never happens.
22:13What now, superstar hero? Well, you know, with your new job, it actually comes with a company house.
22:22Okay. No thanks. It's free.
22:26Well, then I guess we can move in.
22:31Great! Awesome! Okay. What, what's, uh, where you at now? I can help you move.
22:36That's not necessary.
22:3747 Pine Lane apartment, floor B.
22:39Boom! See?
22:42That's why you're the man of the house.
22:43You little conspirator.
22:45Whoa! My new room is so huge. Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
23:05Absolutely.
23:07You got it?
23:08Well, now that we're all alone, it's time I get sweaty.
23:26I get sweaty.
23:27Unpack him, Cindy.
23:29Find out of the gutter.
23:30That was definitely on purpose.
23:37Oh, hey.
23:41Let me.
23:45Oh!
23:46I got it.
23:48Die! Die! Die! Die!
23:49Goodbye.
23:51Goodbye.
23:52Goodbye.
23:52Goodbye.
23:54Goodbye.
23:55Goodbye.
23:56Goodbye.
23:57Goodbye.
23:59What?
24:01Come here.
24:02Is she finally giving me a shot?
24:16Ah!
24:17Ow!
24:19What was that for?
24:22When I was trying to kiss you.
24:24What?
24:25Why?
24:25You said come here.
24:27There's something on your face.
24:32Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
24:37Okay.
24:38Well, I guess I'll get going.
24:41But be sure to say hi to your neighbor.
24:43I heard he's a great, handsome, charming, athletic, pawn, smart, intelligent guy.
24:57Wait, you're my neighbor?
25:05Guess that.
25:07Huh.
25:09How convenient.
25:24Why the long face, Jackson?
25:27The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
25:30Yeah, except she's got a kid.
25:33Gary.
25:34The trust fund catch you left before?
25:37Yeah.
25:39Except she's broke.
25:40Yeah, right.
25:41He's loaded.
25:43I don't know, it doesn't make any sense.
25:45Whatever.
25:45I don't even care.
25:47You know what?
25:47I'm over her, actually.
25:49I'm Jackson Carter.
25:51All right?
25:51Town hero.
25:52I can get whoever I want.
25:54Yeah, right.
25:55You're telling yourself that.
25:58Hello, boys.
26:01Party has arrived.
26:03Vanessa, what are you doing here?
26:05You're acting all mopey, so I thought some company would do you some good.
26:09Okay.
26:09I'll come in.
26:10I'll come in.
26:11Hello, girl.
26:12Hello, girl.
26:16Well, because I'm sure that I'm much more fun than whoever she is anyway.
26:19Mm-hmm.
26:21Let's get this party started.
26:30Cindy!
26:30Cindy!
26:33Okay.
26:33Okay.
26:34Cindy!
26:36Hi!
26:37Would you like to come in?
26:40Um, I just wanted to say thank you.
26:42And now you have.
26:44Bye!
26:47Would you like to come in?
26:48That's really sweet of you.
26:50We'd love to have you.
26:52We might play a game.
26:54It'll be fun.
26:55See?
27:04It's simple.
27:06Even Cindy's brat could do it.
27:09Get up.
27:09Let's play.
27:13Hey, do you actually mind switching with Cindy?
27:15Hey.
27:32What the fuck?
27:34Oops.
27:35I guess I've had a little too much fun.
27:36Vanessa, what's your problem?
27:38Don't yell at me, Jackson.
27:40I was having a little fun.
27:41Is that too much for Cindy?
27:44I'm so sorry.
27:45I'm so sorry.
27:48This is it.
27:49Nice.
27:53What are you two looking at?
27:59Hey.
28:01Don't worry.
28:01I'm leaving.
28:02I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
28:04No, no.
28:04I'm sorry.
28:05I don't know what that was.
28:06Are you okay?
28:09What do you think?
28:13Sorry.
28:13I'm sorry.
28:14For that.
28:16And for crashing your little party.
28:18Looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
28:23Wait, hold on.
28:24Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
28:26Do you like me?
28:27Don't flatter yourself.
28:31Don't flatter yourself.
28:32I'd never like an arrogant ass like you.
28:35Oh, so you'd like a rich prick like Gary.
28:39Gary, go home.
28:40We're not getting back together.
28:42You psycho bitch.
28:45What are you talking about?
28:46Oh, stop, Cindy.
28:48Don't play dumb.
28:49Right?
28:50You dumbed me for him eight years ago and he's Noah's dad, right?
28:57You have no idea what you're talking about.
29:02Okay, then tell me.
29:03Cindy, please just tell me then.
29:05Get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
29:10I swear I will destroy everything you have.
29:14It's better he thinks Noah is Gary's kid than the truth.
29:17It was over a decade ago.
29:20Just let it go, Jackson.
29:28Maybe you want to forget about it because you don't want to come to terms that you traded
29:33love, real love, for money.
29:37You know, we could have had something together.
29:40We could have had a future together.
29:41Jackson, please.
29:44You know what?
29:45Fine.
29:46Here.
29:47I don't want you to catch a cold.
29:54What's that?
29:59Yeah, the ring.
30:02I've had it since the beginning.
30:06Maybe this is stupid, but it's like my good luck charm.
30:11Every time I have it with me, I feel like I can always make it through.
30:16Jackson, stop.
30:21Thank you for saving me.
30:22For the job, for the house, the rescue, but let's just leave this, us, in the past.
30:31We'll call Excel.
30:31We'll call Excel.
30:32It's best that we keep it professional.
30:33It's best that we keep it professional.
30:40That's if you want.
30:44Thanks.
30:45We'll be seeing.
30:47Never knowing what could have.
31:03Wow.
31:04Look.
31:05It's our new paramedic.
31:07Can I help you guys?
31:08Yeah.
31:09I actually hurt myself on the last job.
31:11I was wondering if you could take a look at it.
31:13Oh.
31:14You pulled your groin?
31:16Every night before bed.
31:19We were actually hoping that you might help us out with that.
31:22Yeah.
31:23Or is that just exclusively for Captain Carter?
31:28Do you guys have any real injury?
31:29Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:30Sorry.
31:33You broke my heart?
31:35Wait, wait.
31:35You broke my heart, too.
31:38All right.
31:39Leave my station before I give you something to cry about.
31:41Ooh.
31:43Look.
31:44I don't think you know what you're dealing with, little girl.
31:47But I do.
31:48Jackson, we were just looking for you right now.
32:00We couldn't find you, so we came over here.
32:03Yo, we were just joking.
32:08We were just hazing the new guy, okay?
32:10It was all in good fun.
32:11What do you think, Cindy?
32:12Is it all in good fun?
32:16You heard her.
32:17Hey, hey, hey, hey.
32:18Please, please, please, please.
32:19Flip, flip.
32:20We're sorry, boss.
32:21All right?
32:21We're sorry.
32:22We're sorry, Cindy.
32:25Let go.
32:30Hey, you okay?
32:31I'm sorry about that.
32:33Yeah, I'm fine.
32:34Thanks to you.
32:36Just doing my job.
32:38Well, your men make it impossible for me to do mine, so...
32:41I'm gonna quit.
32:43What?
32:44What?
32:44No, no, no, no.
32:45You can't quit.
32:46You just started.
32:48If I wanted to be mocked every day, then I would just beg Vanessa for my drawback.
32:53Look, this will never happen again.
32:55It's a one-time occurrence.
32:56I promise.
32:57If it ever happens again...
33:03That was a pretty gnarly punch.
33:05Let me see.
33:09It's a pretty gnarly swelling.
33:12There's nothing.
33:14Yeah, whatever.
33:18Look at you, saving me for once.
33:21Just doing my job.
33:25You know, you're different now.
33:28Then when we were younger, you're stronger and tougher.
33:32Well, being a single mother will do that to anyone.
33:38You should try it.
33:41You've been alone this whole time?
33:48Just make sure that your hand stays dry for about three hours.
33:51I gotta go get organized.
33:54I guess I'm staying.
34:02So Gary just abandoned her?
34:05I need to know more.
34:07If Cindy won't tell me, I'll go to Gary.
34:15I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
34:19Man, it's been too long.
34:21How you been? What brings you in today?
34:24You have no idea what you're talking about.
34:26I just got some questions.
34:31About Cindy.
34:33Oh, that brought me.
34:34Oh, she's got issues, man.
34:37She begged me to come back to her.
34:39And then, after she dumped you,
34:41she told me that she didn't even want to be with me.
34:46What about Noah?
34:48Who the fuck is Noah?
34:50Come on, man.
34:51It's been years.
34:52Let's talk about something that matters.
34:53Forget that psycho bitch.
34:55But I got something real for you.
34:56Oh, fuck!
34:57It's Salter again!
35:02Yo, you're loco, man.
35:04You two deserve each other.
35:07If Gary's not the father, then who is?
35:11What the hell's going on, Cindy?
35:19Mom, this is disgusting.
35:21Noah!
35:22Hey, Cindy.
35:23I need to...
35:24Save us!
35:27What's up, little man?
35:28Mom can't cook to save her life.
35:30Oh!
35:30Excuse me!
35:31Yeah, he's not lying.
35:34Fine.
35:35Last time I'd do anything nice for you people.
35:38Okay, tell me.
35:39How do you like your burger cooked?
35:41Medium rare.
35:43No way!
35:44Me too!
35:46You know what that makes us?
35:47What?
35:47Taste buds.
35:48Taste buds.
35:50Oh my gosh.
35:51Are you guys sure with all those similarities?
35:53You two are not related.
35:54You all right?
35:54Mm-hmm.
35:55Yeah.
35:55Wrong pipe.
35:56Listen, can you, um, watch Noah for a second while we, we clean up the plates?
35:59There's only two plates, so...
36:00Amanda, call me clean up the plates.
36:01Okay?
36:02I'll help you clean up the plates.
36:03Okay.
36:03Okay.
36:04I'll help you clean up the plates.
36:05I, uh...
36:06Actually, hey, I'm gonna go talk to your mom real quick, but you stay here.
36:10Okay?
36:11Okay.
36:12Okay.
36:13Hold down the floor for me.
36:14All right, I'll be right back.
36:15All right, I'll be right back.
36:40What are you doing?
36:47It's already as difficult as it is.
36:50Jackson isn't stupid.
36:51He's gonna find out eventually that he's not the father and then whatever you cannot do about it.
36:55Hey, what you guys talking about?
36:58What did you hear?
37:00Nothing.
37:02You mind if I talk to Cindy for a second alone?
37:05Yeah, I have to use the bathroom anyway.
37:10Uh, you and Noah are getting along great.
37:13Oh, yeah, he's a great kid.
37:15Yeah.
37:16You know, I'd love to help out more, you know, if you'd let me.
37:19Take him to school, pick him up from soccer practice, whatever you need.
37:26Ice cream!
37:28You want to babysit?
37:31You're a fire captain, right?
37:32That's a little below your pay grade.
37:34No, no, no.
37:35I just want to be part of your guys' lives.
37:40You know, and...
37:43Noah?
37:44Where's Noah?
37:45Shit!
37:57He lost a lot of blood.
37:58Is anyone a negative for transfusion?
38:00I am, but I can't.
38:01I'm his mother.
38:02Anyone else?
38:03Well, I'm a universal donor.
38:04Perfect, come with me.
38:05Great.
38:06No, no, no, no.
38:07There has to be someone else.
38:08Cindy, stop.
38:09There's no time.
38:10No, it can't be you!
38:11Why?
38:12Why won't you let me help him?
38:13No!
38:14Okay, I don't need your help.
38:15Leave.
38:22I'm sorry.
38:23Cindy, I know you're scared, but the longer you keep this a secret, the more pain it's
38:30going to cause for the both of you.
38:33I just don't know what to do right now, I know.
38:38Goodness!
38:39We've located down our plasma.
38:40I just need your signature, okay?
38:41Right here.
38:50You know, it's just...
38:51Every time I feel like we're finally getting closer, she shuts me out.
38:54I don't get it.
38:55I mean, she's been alone for so long, and you guys didn't really end up well last time.
39:00What if she's just scared?
39:01What?
39:02And I'm not?
39:03Well, she's the one that dumped me.
39:04Yeah, I know.
39:05I know.
39:06How about she wouldn't even let me donate blood to Noah?
39:08Luckily, we found a plasma donor, but what if we didn't?
39:11Why won't she let me help?
39:13Wait.
39:14They didn't let you donate?
39:16No!
39:17That's crazy, right?
39:18Wait, didn't you say Gary wasn't the father?
39:21Yeah.
39:22And?
39:23Direct relatives can't give blood to other direct relatives, so...
39:27Yo!
39:28What if you're Noah's dad?
39:36You're my dad!
39:37These bloods.
39:39Who the fuck is Noah?
39:41Amanda's right.
39:42I can't keep hiding this.
39:43Jackson deserves to know.
39:44I know it does too.
39:46How's he doing?
39:47Good.
39:48Hey.
39:49We need to talk.
39:50I talked to Gary.
39:51What?
39:52You had no right to do that.
39:53You wouldn't tell me anything.
39:54I needed answers.
39:55Cindy?
39:56Is Noah my son?
39:57Is Noah my son?
39:58I can't keep hiding this.
39:59I can't keep hiding this.
40:00Jackson deserves to know.
40:01I know it does too.
40:02How's he doing?
40:03How's he doing?
40:04Good.
40:05Hey.
40:06I need to talk.
40:07I talked to Gary.
40:08What?
40:09You had no right to do that.
40:10You wouldn't tell me anything.
40:11I needed answers.
40:12Cindy?
40:13Is Noah my son?
40:14What?
40:15You had no right to do that.
40:16You wouldn't tell me anything.
40:17I needed answers.
40:18Cindy?
40:19Is Noah my son?
40:20I...
40:21That's the only thing I can think of why you wouldn't let me donate blood.
40:35I mean, when I first met him we had an instant connection.
40:39And every time I've seen him since I've realized that he eats like me.
40:44He talks like me.
40:45How he even looks like me.
40:47Why won't you tell me?
40:50Is Noah my son?
40:52Cindy?
40:53Just tell me.
40:54Is Noah my son?
40:55Yes!
40:56Noah's your son.
41:00Why wouldn't you just say that?
41:12How could you hide this from me for eight years?
41:15What could I have possibly done to you that was so bad?
41:18Did you know?
41:19When you broke up with me?
41:22Well, get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
41:26I swear I will destroy everything you have.
41:31But I love him!
41:34We love each other!
41:38If you really love him, then walk away.
41:42My son deserves better.
41:45Jackson, I was so young.
41:50And I was scared.
41:52And you had all these big dreams that you had to go do.
41:56What?
41:57The stupid firefighter program?
41:58You thought I cared more about that than him?
42:01Than you?
42:02No!
42:03No!
42:04I knew that you didn't.
42:06That's why I left.
42:07Because I knew that you wouldn't.
42:09But, Jackson, you didn't fight me on it.
42:14You never...
42:16You never asked me to stay.
42:18Well, because you said you didn't love me anymore!
42:20What?
42:21I never stopped loving you!
42:23Jackson, for every second of every day for the last eight years,
42:30I've been waiting for you.
42:32Hoping that you'd call or you'd text something, anything.
42:38Anything!
42:39I dreamt about telling you about Noah.
42:44I wasn't strong enough.
42:46I just wish I had been brave and I didn't let your mother control him.
42:53You're a bitch fool.
42:54I'm...
42:55Looks like the cat's finally out the bag.
43:12Um, it's just...
43:14You were just, uh...
43:16I thought I said no more lies.
43:21There's no more.
43:26Hey, you know what?
43:28Noah's birthday is tomorrow.
43:31You know what he's always wanted?
43:38Dad.
43:39Bingo.
43:44I know just the right thing.
43:57So, what kind of cake would the birthday boy like?
44:02Honestly, I have no idea.
44:04New to this whole dead thing, huh?
44:06Yeah.
44:07I just found out 20 minutes ago.
44:08He doesn't even know.
44:09Oh, wow.
44:10Okay.
44:11Well, let's just start with his name then.
44:14Noah.
44:15I do know that.
44:16Gotcha.
44:17Thanks.
44:23Noah is Jackson's son?
44:28I am going to mess you up, Cindy White.
44:33Wait, sir!
44:35I need an address.
44:38I'll tell you.
44:40Don't worry.
44:41I'm a friend of the family.
44:50Cake for Jackson?
44:51That's me.
44:52Thank you, sir.
44:53No problem.
44:59Are you nervous?
45:01Is it that obvious?
45:03Don't be.
45:04You'll be great.
45:05Don't worry.
45:06Once you're out of here, I'm going to throw you the biggest party ever.
45:08Who says we have to wait?
45:12Surprise!
45:13Happy birthday!
45:14You remembered!
45:15How could I forget the coolest kid in town's birthday?
45:19There you go.
45:21Can I open it, Mom?
45:22Yes.
45:30I don't know what happened there.
45:31I'm so sorry.
45:32It must have been some kind of mistake.
45:33Don't worry about that.
45:34Why does everyone call me a bastard?
45:35Why don't I have a dad?
45:36No, you do have a dad.
45:37I do?
45:38I'm your father.
45:39Is that true?
45:40No, I don't know.
45:41I don't know.
45:42I don't know what happened there.
45:43I'm so sorry.
45:44It must have been some kind of mistake.
45:45Don't worry about that.
45:46Why does everyone call me a bastard?
45:47Why don't I have a dad?
45:49No, you do have a dad.
45:53I do?
45:55I'm your father.
45:59Is that true?
46:02To the best that I could have possibly imagined.
46:14But where have you been all my life?
46:16Did you not want to be my dad?
46:19Of course I wanted to be your dad.
46:22I was...
46:23I was just scared.
46:25Why?
46:27You know, everyday I put my life out on the line.
46:31Fighting fires.
46:32I was just afraid that maybe one day I wouldn't be able to come home.
46:36But thanks to your mom, I'm finally brave enough to be here for you.
46:46Can you ever forgive me?
46:48Of course.
46:49Dad.
46:50Very now.
46:57Yeah?
46:58Are you excited?
46:59Yeah, definitely.
47:00Yeah.
47:01Cool.
47:02Noah!
47:03You're alive!
47:04Yes!
47:05And I have a dad!
47:06Whoa!
47:07Is that him?
47:08That's me.
47:09You're the firefighter from the news!
47:12Hey!
47:13Nice to meet you.
47:14I'm Noah's dad.
47:15Can we take a selfie?
47:17Um...
47:18Yes.
47:19We can.
47:20Here we go.
47:21Beautiful.
47:22Thank you!
47:23Mm-hmm.
47:24Your dad is so cool.
47:25I know!
47:26We need some firefighting stories.
47:27He told me!
47:28He's totally showing.
47:29Yeah?
47:30What a great kid.
47:31Oh, who is it?
47:32Harry!
47:33At the station.
47:34We take this.
47:35Hey!
47:36It's ready?
47:37Okay, great.
47:38I'll be there as soon as I can.
47:39I thought we were done with Elias.
47:40Jackson has a son?
47:41Out of all people and Cindy.
47:42I know.
47:43But I taught the brunt a lesson.
47:44Broke bastard on his birthday cake.
47:48Genius.
47:49I know, but I taught the brunt a lesson.
47:51Broke bastard on his birthday cake.
47:52Genius.
47:53I know.
47:54I'm sorry.
47:55I'm sorry.
47:56I'm sorry.
47:57I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
47:59I'm sorry.
48:00We're gonna have to do this.
48:01We're gonna have to do this.
48:02I'm sorry.
48:03I'm sorry.
48:04I'm sorry.
48:05I'm sorry.
48:06At the station, we take this.
48:07Hey!
48:08You ready?
48:09I'll be there as soon as I can.
48:10I thought we were done with Elias?
48:12Jackson has a son?
48:13Show me that.
48:15That's a personal order?
48:17Did I ask?
48:23It's stunning.
48:27It's engraved.
48:29It says it's for...
48:33Cindy White?
48:35Whose order is this?
48:37Jackson Carter.
48:39The Jackson Carter?
48:41She's baby trapping him and he's falling for it.
48:47Not on my watch.
48:59It's ready? Okay, great.
49:01I'll be there as soon as I can.
49:07Hey, baby.
49:09What's on your mind?
49:13Um...
49:15The call you got earlier.
49:17I kind of overheard it.
49:21Thought there was gonna be no secrets, remember?
49:23We may have noticed I'm talking during my necklace.
49:33Yeah, that seems, uh, strange.
49:37It's because I took it to a jeweler and...
49:41La la la la la la.
49:43Not listening, not listening.
49:45You asked!
49:47Sorry, whatever you're saying, I can't hear you.
49:49La la la la la la la la la.
49:53I should have never doubted the tarot.
49:55I'm sorry.
49:57Okay, I've accepted my fate.
49:59Can you please just tell me if you said propose?
50:01Man, please!
50:03Cindy White?
50:05Yes? Can I help you?
50:07Yeah, I was actually looking for a gas station.
50:13I was actually looking for a gas station.
50:15Cindy, are you still there?
50:17No!
50:19Hey!
50:29Jackson!
50:31These guys just kidnapped Cindy and put it in a van.
50:33What?
50:34Yeah.
50:35I've pulled security footage.
50:36I'll call 911.
50:37Yeah, yeah.
50:40Let's go.
50:46Buckle up.
50:47You got our GPS location?
50:49Oh shit!
50:54Stay here!
51:02Not so sassy now, are you?
51:06Vanessa, stop!
51:10Don't do something to your undergrad.
51:12Trust me.
51:13I'm not.
51:15Don't do this.
51:16Let's just...
51:17Let's just talk.
51:18About what?
51:20About you marrying this slut?
51:23Or about you crawling back to your family to get her location?
51:26I thought that you were never gonna go back to them, remember?
51:29I know you're hurt, Vanessa.
51:30It's just...
51:31It's between me and you, okay?
51:32Just leave Cindy out of this.
51:33This is a big misunderstanding, okay?
51:34What do you say?
51:35I say...
51:36Leave Cindy and marry me.
51:37I take that as a no.
51:38God, you really love her, don't you?
51:40That's too bad.
51:42Because I really didn't want to do this, but...
51:43You're not really leaving me a choice.
51:45Put the lighter down.
51:46Let's just talk.
51:47If I can't ask you...
51:48She certainly can't.
51:49So that's...
51:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
51:51I'm not.
51:52I'm not.
51:53I'm not.
51:54I'm not.
51:55I'm not.
51:56I'm not.
51:57I'm not.
51:58I'm not.
51:59I'm not.
52:00I'm not.
52:01I'm not.
52:02I'm not.
52:03And it's...
52:05That's too bad.
52:07Because I really didn't want to do this, but...
52:10You're not really leaving me a choice.
52:13Put the lighter down.
52:14Let's just talk.
52:16If I can't ask you...
52:18She certainly can.
52:19So that's enough...
52:20No, no, no, no...
52:21Jackson's still in there!
52:33Go! Go! Go!
52:44Jackson!
52:45You're alive!
52:49Jackson!
52:51Jackson!
52:52Somebody help, please!
52:55Let go of me, you pig!
52:58Jackson, it's mine!
52:59You're living is mine!
53:01Unless you're reading, you're under arrest!
53:05Jackson, please.
53:06Please hold on. Don't leave me.
53:09Jackson.
53:11I can't get rid of me.
53:13No!
53:15Jackson!
53:16No!
53:16Please!
53:17Please!
53:20Don't leave me!
53:21Don't leave me!
53:32Sandy.
53:33Hi, Jackson.
53:35Hi, I'm here.
53:35No, no, no, easy, easy.
53:39I don't want to push anything.
53:41Here, can I get some water?
53:43Yeah.
53:43Please?
53:44Yeah, sure, Dad.
53:47Here you go.
53:48Don't worry.
53:49We'll take good care of you.
53:51You're the best kid a dad could ask for.
54:01I'll go get you medicine.
54:05He's really stepping up.
54:07That's amazing.
54:10This can't do, I miss so much of his life, are you?
54:13I know.
54:14Cindy.
54:21Mom?
54:23That must be your son.
54:25He's so beautiful.
54:27What are you doing here?
54:29How do you know about Cindy's son?
54:32Because I paid her to leave you, so she wouldn't trap you with a baby.
54:40I told her I'd ruin her life if she didn't leave you.
54:43Well, is that what you're doing here now?
54:46To threaten her again?
54:47No.
54:48Is that what?
54:50Mom?
54:51Get out.
54:52No.
54:52Mom?
54:53Get the fuck out of here!
54:54Go!
54:55Jackson, I'm sorry, son.
54:57I'm so sorry.
54:59Cindy, why didn't you just tell me?
55:04I thought you said no more lies.
55:08I'm a mother now.
55:09And even though I would never make the choices that you did, I can understand them.
55:21And I forgive you.
55:24You're a strong woman, Cindy.
55:27And an excellent mother.
55:30Jackson, I'm so sorry for everything.
55:43When Cindy broke up with you, I saw how heartbroken you were, and I immediately knew I'd made a terrible
55:48mistake.
55:50But I knew you'd never stop fighting for her.
55:53I truly want nothing but the best for both of you.
56:03Dad, who's the crying lady?
56:06It's your grandma.
56:08Why don't you give her a hug?
56:11Hi, Grandma.
56:13I'm Noah.
56:14Hi, Noah.
56:15Don't worry.
56:18It's okay.
56:21Yes.
56:22It is now.
56:38Wow.
56:38Wow.
56:39Hey.
56:41Where is the uniform?
56:43I got it.
56:44You got the ring?
56:45I got it.
56:46All right.
56:47Speaking of, how's Cindy getting there?
56:49Only the best is bringing her.
56:50Mom, can you please go to Dad's photo shoot?
56:52Please, please, please, please, please?
56:56Fine.
56:58Because you asked so much.
57:07What is going on?
57:09Surprise!
57:12What?
57:13What is all of this?
57:14I want to make up for all the lost time.
57:22Give Noah a home and a wedding with both of them.
57:30Cindy White, will you marry me?
57:34Yes!
57:37Yes.
57:37A million times, yes.
57:39Everything that I'm doing.
57:40Everything that I'm doing.
57:43Yes!
57:44Woo!
57:44Woo!
57:45Woo!
57:46Woo!
57:46Woo!
57:46Woo!
57:47I promise that you'll throw me hands.
57:52And I want you.
57:54But only I want you.
57:57Yeah.
57:58I want you.
57:58Wait, the door!
58:07I know.
58:08I'm trying to do it naturally.
58:12Ow!
58:13Ow.
58:14Just doing my job.
58:15Oh, sorry.
58:16One more time.
58:17If it ever happens again...
58:23Jeez.
58:27Shh.
58:28...for the rest of my life...
58:34...for the rest of my life...
58:41Ah, good job!
58:43Can you go again?
58:44Yeah.
