00:04911, what's your emergency?
00:06Everybody on this way!
00:07Please do it!
00:09Go, go, go!
00:11Any more patients, I'm here!
00:38Let's go, let's go, let's go! Move it, move it, move it!
00:43Ow!
00:49Ka! Only one nurse remaining!
00:52Sydney White!
01:11Jackson? Am I dreaming?
01:14It's been nearly a decade.
01:31Come on!
01:32Come on, Jackson!
01:34Let's go, let's go!
01:35One!
01:37You got me!
01:39Woo!
01:40Come on, let's go!
01:45Yes!
01:4622-13!
01:47Woo-hoo!
01:48Go Jackson!
02:03You did amazing!
02:04Thank you!
02:05You're for sure going to ace that firefighter aptitude test.
02:08Why are you leaving me for New York?
02:11Why is summer already over?
02:13Well, I'm not leaving you, Cindy.
02:16Look, I know it's only been one summer,
02:18but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
02:26I'm glad I stole you away from that loser Gary.
02:29Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
02:33Seriously.
02:34Wait for me.
02:35I'll come back for you.
02:40I love you, Cindy White.
02:43I love you, too, Jackson Carter.
02:51Oh.
02:52One more thing?
02:58You ass!
02:58No!
03:02I can't be pregnant.
03:05I have to tell Jackson.
03:17Lorraine.
03:21You shameless tramp.
03:23Are you trying to trap my son with a baby?
03:26No!
03:27No, that's not what that is!
03:28Jackson has a bright future ahead of him,
03:30and I will not let you ruin it.
03:32Well, get rid of the baby,
03:34and disappear from his life,
03:36or I swear I will destroy everything you have.
03:40But I love him!
03:42But I love him!
03:44We love each other!
03:47If you really love him,
03:49then walk away.
03:52My son deserves better.
04:02All right, this is it.
04:03I'm gonna put a ring on your finger before I leave.
04:06If he knew about the baby, he'd stay.
04:08For me.
04:10For us.
04:11For me.
04:31For me.
04:36For us.
04:38For me.
04:43Wait, what?
04:45Break up?
04:46Why?
04:57What the fuck?
04:59Is this a fucking joke?
05:00I even left you in your back with this fucking asshole?
05:03Hey, watch your mouth!
05:04Yes.
05:05Gary and I are back together.
05:07I was thinking about it,
05:08and his family money can give me the life I've always dreamed of.
05:13And I don't want to worry about losing my partner in a fire or something.
05:17But you've always been supportive of my dream.
05:22Goodbye, Jackson.
05:28When the first moments are falling,
05:30you're stirring all the heart.
05:33I felt the love I gave no longer.
05:36It starts to bloom with you in my hand.
05:40When the lines are fine with you.
05:43That was hilarious!
05:44Did you see his face was priceless?
05:46Gary, go home.
05:49We're not getting back together.
05:51What?
05:52Well, first you begged me to come out here,
05:54and now you push me away?
05:56You psycho bitch!
06:02I'm sorry, Jackson.
06:06I'm so sorry.
06:11Captain Jackson,
06:13you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
06:16But reports are saying that you stayed inside the blaze
06:1930 minutes longer than protocol allows.
06:21What was your reason for staying inside?
06:25Well, I was just doing my job.
06:27Captain Jackson, I just wanted to say on behalf of my father's hospital,
06:34thank you for saving our lives.
06:36You are truly a hero.
06:38It's no problem.
06:39You must be tired after all that.
06:42You could use a little rest.
06:43Why don't we go back to my VIP lounge and have a little fun?
06:48Thanks, but no thanks.
06:50I actually have to check on a patient.
06:51Thank you for your time.
06:52No problem.
06:52Okay.
06:53I'll come with you.
06:57Time to get back to work, Cindy White.
06:59Box ticking.
07:01Okay, Vanessa.
07:18Jackson.
07:19Excuse me?
07:21That is Captain Jackson Carter to you.
07:25He's L.A.'s hottest, bravest, most badass firefighter.
07:31And he just saved your worthless life.
07:33Vanessa, please.
07:34That's not necessary.
07:36Where's his thank you?
07:39You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
07:43And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it.
07:47Trust me.
07:48I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
07:52Don't talk back to me, Cindy.
07:55I'm your boss.
07:56My dad owns this hospital.
07:59And by the way.
08:01I am so sick of your temper.
08:04You know what?
08:06You're fired.
08:16Whoa.
08:16What?
08:18Come on, Vanessa.
08:19I need this job.
08:20Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you talked back to the boss's daughter.
08:26Come on.
08:27Let's go somewhere or more right now.
08:29You know, now that I think about it, there is a new opening for a paramedic in my department.
08:34I would be so honored.
08:36Someone just became available.
08:39Hey, Cindy.
08:41How would you like to do this?
08:42I'd like to join my team.
08:43What?
08:44A paramedic job?
08:46What's the catch, Jackson?
08:48What game is this?
08:54Thank you so much, but I can't accept.
08:58I'm sorry.
08:59I would be so...
09:01Mommy!
09:02Mommy!
09:03I'm sorry.
09:04You just ran past me.
09:05That's okay.
09:08Great!
09:08Just what I need.
09:10More menbodies.
09:12Alright, I'm almost right.
09:13Thank you for saving my mom.
09:18Just doing my job.
09:21You have a son?
09:23Uh, yeah.
09:24This is Noah.
09:26Hi, my name is Noah.
09:27Nice to meet you.
09:29Hey.
09:31Nice to meet you.
09:33I'm Jackson.
09:35Wait.
09:36You're my dad!
09:39Noah!
09:40You didn't tell him?
09:43That's not funny.
09:45I'm so sorry.
09:47Um...
09:47We have to go get ice cream!
09:48Yeah, ice cream.
09:49Right? Let's go.
09:49I love ice cream!
09:56Noah, why did you call Jackson Dad?
09:58He looks like my dad for my dream.
10:06So after she broke up with me...
10:08She had a kid with Gary?
10:10We'd get Hypnotize the show.
10:23How much?
10:30We don't have a month in life.
10:32We're at the age of a year.
10:36We are at the age of three.
10:39We are at the age of one.
10:40money. Let's not pay in the rent, honey. Jackson's job would. That's not gonna happen. Okay, well, argue with the
10:49cards, honey. You're fated to take this gig. Marry the love of your life and live happily ever after. Okay,
10:57see, this is why I don't live terribly. My life has never been this week. Okay, well, good thing you
11:04don't have to believe in it for it to be true. Jackson loves you and I don't
11:10need the cards to know that. Okay, we're done. Conversation over. Run all you want. Bank comes for us all.
11:19Good night. Mark my words, honey. You two are not over.
11:38What do you want, Vanessa? Just making sure you're not stealing anything. Strip searcher. What? No, are you kidding? What
11:48is this? Are we in high school?
11:52What? The stripper top. She might be having medicine under her. Vanessa! What is this? Fuck. Let's go. No. No,
12:02wait. No. Enjoy the chill time, bitch. Come on. Fuck. Vanessa!
12:16Thanks for implementing the new safety measures, Captain Carter. For the last time.
12:21Call me Jackson. Call me Jackson. I'm just doing my job. You're too modest, Jackson.
12:28Help. Somebody help, please.
12:32Cindy? Hello? Cindy!
12:37Jackson! Hey! Hi. Can you help me?
12:41All right, stand back. Okay.
12:50Wait, turn around. Okay.
12:54Jackson.
12:55I'm not looking.
12:56Wait, the door!
12:56You're not looking? Oh, shit.
13:04Wait, the door!
13:05You're not looking? Oh, shit.
13:09You're not looking.
13:10Now we're both stuck in here.
13:19Damn.
13:21Is he sexier than I remember?
13:24You know it's rude to stare.
13:26Jerk.
13:30So, when did you have a kid?
13:32When did you come back?
13:34Captain Jackson Carter?
13:37Why are you here?
13:38What do you want from me?
13:40Well, I always said I'd come back.
13:43That was years ago.
13:44We were kids.
13:45Does it make it not true?
13:50What about you?
13:52What about you?
13:52No ring.
13:53No Gary inside.
13:54I guess that happily ever after didn't work out.
13:56Hey.
13:57You just got fired.
13:58Just take my job.
13:59Okay?
14:00It's a good offer.
14:01No.
14:01I don't need your offer.
14:03I don't need you to rescue me.
14:05Again.
14:06What are you so afraid of?
14:08Think about your son.
14:10He's got a point.
14:11I do need a job.
14:13And money.
14:17Fine.
14:18I'll take your offer.
14:19And I'll be the best paramedic there is on the team.
14:22It'll be your ass getting saved by mine.
14:24I saw her sneak into storage.
14:27She's up to something.
14:33I saw her sneak into the storage room.
14:35She's up to something.
14:36Probably stealing meds or case violence or worse.
14:40I'm starting to think she's the one who started the fire.
14:43You're finished, thief.
14:48What?
14:49What is it?
14:52Jackson.
14:55But I only locked her in here.
14:58Oh.
14:58Thanks for the confession.
15:00You bitch.
15:01Enough.
15:02Stop embarrassing yourself, Vanessa.
15:04I am so sorry for my daughter's behavior.
15:08Miss White.
15:08Mr. Carter.
15:09You're apologizing to her?
15:10Shut up!
15:19Well.
15:23For saving me.
15:25Again.
15:26Well, I wouldn't call getting us both trapped in that room much of a rescue.
15:30But I'll take it.
15:32Excited to see you at work?
15:34Whatever.
15:41Hello?
15:42Hello, Miss White.
15:43It's Principal Coleman.
15:45Your son got into a fight.
15:46You need to come.
15:47Now.
15:48What?
15:54Noah!
15:55Are you hurt?
15:55Let me see.
15:56Is he hurt?
15:57He's the one who attacked my son.
16:00Hello.
16:01I'm sorry.
16:02If...
16:03If your son needs a doctor, I can go and cover it.
16:05I don't need your money.
16:07I have money.
16:08What I want is this animal, what you call a son, expelled.
16:16What?
16:18You're not gonna do that, right?
16:20Well, per school policy, serious violence does warrant expulsion.
16:24But he started it.
16:26You called me a bastard.
16:28He said...
16:29He called my mom...
16:31A...
16:31A slut.
16:34My mom says to kids like you don't know your dad's because your moms are total sluts.
16:40Shut up!
16:41Hey!
16:41Don't!
16:42You're the one who's married!
16:48Shut up!
16:50Hey!
16:50Don't!
16:51You're the one who's married!
16:57Jackson!
16:58You okay, kidda?
16:59Let go of me!
17:01How dare you!
17:02Mr. Carter!
17:03Hero of the city!
17:04You know the White family?
17:07I do.
17:09President Collins.
17:10I didn't know you allowed such bad decorum.
17:15Excuse me, you little son of a...
17:17Enough!
17:19Mr. Carter.
17:20I apologize for this incident.
17:22And you...
17:23You...
17:23You!
17:24You!
17:24You!
17:24I apologize to Noah!
17:26Ha!
17:26No way!
17:28This bastard attacked my son!
17:30This man has saved our school and countless others!
17:33And it's a price we could never hope to repay!
17:37Actually, there is a way to pay it back.
17:39Really?
17:40Well, just tell me how.
17:44Expel that boy.
17:45Ah!
17:52Expel that boy.
17:53Ah!
17:54Alright?
17:55Son!
17:56Wait, wait, wait, wait!
17:57No.
17:58We don't want to expel that.
17:59We don't?
18:00We don't?
18:01We don't!
18:01No.
18:03Both boys were in the wrong.
18:05NOAH!
18:07You said extremely rude things to Noah and I and you need to apologize.
18:12And Noah, you can't hit someone no matter what they say.
18:16Okay?
18:16You need to say sorry.
18:17My son will not be apologizing for it.
18:20I just...
18:21Saved your son from expulsion.
18:25Son?
18:27Say you're sorry.
18:28What?
18:30I'm sorry.
18:32What was that?
18:34I'm sorry.
18:35Good.
18:37Noah?
18:38I'm sorry, I guess.
18:41I think you owe Miss White an apology too.
18:46I am sorry, Miss White.
18:57Say, your mom's a smart cookie.
19:00I shouldn't have tried to expel that boy the same way you shouldn't have tried to fight him.
19:04Next time, just come to us or the principal.
19:07Okay?
19:08Okay.
19:10Nice.
19:13Why does Captain Carter know the whites?
19:16Is...
19:16Is he Noah's dad?
19:29No, okay.
19:31Uh, principal Colin.
19:33This isn't what it looks like.
19:34Oh, no, no.
19:34Do not worry, Miss White.
19:36Mum's the worst.
19:37You won't get a peep out of me.
19:39But there's nothing to...
19:41But there's nothing to...
19:41Oh, no, no.
19:41Do not fret.
19:43We're gonna take very special care of Noah.
19:45Both for you and for...
19:50Just for you.
19:54So, what were you and principal Collins whispering about?
19:57No, no, no, no.
19:58No, no, no.
20:01Yeah?
20:01It seemed like something.
20:04No, nothing.
20:05For you to know about.
20:07Ah, excellent qualifier.
20:09Hey.
20:10Hey.
20:11You wanna race?
20:12Yes.
20:12Yeah?
20:12Alright, go.
20:13Come on.
20:14Come on.
20:14I'm beating you.
20:15Come on, hurry up.
20:18Maybe I should tell him he's the father.
20:20He's so good with him.
20:26Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
20:29Hi.
20:30Hey.
20:31Can we take a selfie?
20:32I love your fire safety TikTok videos.
20:34And I adore your calendars.
20:36No, those are bad.
20:38Yeah, that's good.
20:39That's good.
20:41That's good.
20:41Nice.
20:43Jackson, could I have your phone number?
20:45If I'm ever feeling lightheaded in the bath,
20:48could I call you for a personal rescue?
20:51Ah, she's bad.
20:51Hey.
20:52Before you play with your little fan club,
20:54can you make sure my kid's okay?
20:57He was just right here.
20:59Yeah, and he almost just ran in the middle of the street.
21:02Nope.
21:02I can't tell him he's the father.
21:04I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
21:06Yeah.
21:13Hey, you never answered my question.
21:15Oh, uh, in case of emergency, just call 9-1-1.
21:18Okay.
21:19Cindy, hold on.
21:20Wait up.
21:21Sorry about that.
21:22That, uh, never happens.
21:23What now, superstar hero?
21:26Well, you know, with your new job,
21:29it actually comes with a accompanying house.
21:32I don't care.
21:33No thanks.
21:34It's free.
21:38Well, then I guess we can move in.
21:42Great!
21:43Awesome!
21:44Okay.
21:44What's, uh, where you at now?
21:46I can help you move.
21:47That's not necessary.
21:4847 Pie Lane apartment, 4B.
21:50Boom!
21:51See?
21:52That's why you're the man of the house.
21:54You little conspirator.
22:11Whoa!
22:12My new room is so huge.
22:14Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
22:16Absolutely.
22:19You got it?
22:28Well, now that we're all alone...
22:36...it's time we get sweaty.
22:38Excuse me?
22:40Unpacking, Cindy.
22:41Find out where the car is.
22:44That was definitely on purpose.
22:49Oh, hey.
22:52Let me.
22:57Oh!
22:58Oh, no.
22:59I got it.
23:00Dive!
23:01Dive!
23:01Dive!
23:02Dive!
23:11What?
23:12Come here.
23:14Is she finally giving me a shot?
23:29What?
23:31What?
23:33What?
23:34What was that for?
23:35I was trying to kiss you.
23:36What?
23:38Why?
23:39You said come here.
23:40There's something on your face.
23:45Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
23:48Hmm.
23:50Okay.
23:51Well, I guess I'll get going.
23:54But be sure to say hi to your neighbor.
23:56I heard he's a great, handsome, charming, athletic, fun, smart, intelligent guy.
24:04Oh, my God.
24:13You're my neighbor?
24:15I guess I'll get...
24:19Oh.
24:20Huh.
24:22How convenient.
24:26Hi.
24:27Hi.
24:28Hi.
24:31Hi.
24:33Hi.
24:38Why the long face, Jackson?
24:41The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
24:44Yeah, except she's got a kid.
24:47Gary.
24:49Well, the trust fund catch you left before.
24:51Yeah.
24:53Except she's broke.
24:55You're not right.
24:56He's loaded.
24:57I know, it doesn't make any sense.
24:59Whatever.
25:00I don't even care.
25:01You know what?
25:02I'm over her, actually.
25:03I'm Jackson Carter.
25:05All right, town hero.
25:07I can get whoever I want.
25:09Right.
25:10You're telling yourself that.
25:14Hello, boys.
25:15Party has arrived.
25:17Vanessa, what are you doing here?
25:20You're acting all mopey, so I thought some company would do you some good.
25:23Okay.
25:24Welcome in.
25:26Hello, hello.
25:30Well, because I'm sure that I'm much more fun than whoever she is in the back.
25:34Mm-hmm.
25:35Let's get this party started.
25:45Cindy!
25:45Cindy!
25:48Cindy!
25:49Okay.
25:49Okay.
25:51Cindy!
25:51Hi!
25:53Would you like to come in?
25:56Um, I just wanted to say thank you.
25:58And I have.
25:59Bye!
26:02Would you like to come in?
26:03That's really sweet of you.
26:05We'd love to have you.
26:07Might play a game.
26:09It'll be fun.
26:19See?
26:20It's simple.
26:21Even Cindy Spratt could do it.
26:24Get up.
26:24Let's play.
26:28Hey, do you actually mind switching with Cindy?
26:48What the fuck?
26:51Oops.
26:52I guess I've had a little too much fun.
26:53Vanessa, what's your problem?
26:54Don't yell at me, Jackson.
26:56I was having a little fun.
26:58Is that too much for Cindy?
27:00I'm so sorry.
27:01Here.
27:04Sit.
27:05Nice.
27:10What are you two looking at?
27:15Hey.
27:17Don't worry.
27:18I'm leaving.
27:19I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
27:20No, no.
27:21I'm sorry.
27:21I don't know what that was.
27:23Are you okay?
27:25What do you think?
27:29Sorry.
27:31For that.
27:32And for crashing your little party.
27:35Looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
27:39Wait, hold on.
27:40Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
27:43Do you like me?
27:48Don't flatter yourself.
27:50I'd never like an arrogant ass like you.
27:53Oh.
27:54So you'd like a rich prick like Gary.
27:57Gary, go home.
27:58We're not getting back together.
28:00You psycho bitch.
28:03What are you talking about?
28:05Oh, stop.
28:05See?
28:06Don't play dumb.
28:08All right.
28:08You dumped me for him eight years ago, and he's known his dad, right?
28:15You have no idea what you're talking about.
28:20Okay, then tell me.
28:21Cindy, please just tell me then.
28:26Get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
28:29I swear I will destroy everything you have.
28:33It's better he thinks Noah is Gary's kid than the truth.
28:37It was over a decade ago.
28:39Just let it go, Jackson.
28:47Maybe you want to forget about it because you don't want to come to terms that you traded
28:52love, real love, for money.
28:56You know, we could have had something together.
28:59We could have a future together.
29:00Jackson, please.
29:03You know what?
29:04Fine.
29:05Here.
29:06I don't want you to catch a cold.
29:09I don't want you to catch a cold.
29:14I don't want you to catch a cold.
29:14What's that?
29:18Yeah, the ring.
29:21I've had it since the beginning.
29:25Maybe this is stupid, but...
29:28It's like my good luck charm.
29:30Every time I have it with me, I feel like I can always make it through.
29:35Jackson, stop.
29:38Okay?
29:40Thank you for saving me.
29:43For the job, for the house, the rescue, but let's just leave this, us, in the past.
29:50We're calling so.
29:52It's best that we keep it professional.
29:59That's if you want.
30:04Thanks.
30:04You'll be safe, never knowing what could I do.
30:23Wow.
30:25Look, it's our new paramedic.
30:28Can I help you guys?
30:30Yeah, I actually hurt myself on the last job.
30:33I was wondering if you could take a look at it.
30:34Oh.
30:36You pulled your groin?
30:38Every night before bed.
30:40We were actually hoping that you might help us out with that.
30:43Yeah.
30:44Or is that just exclusively for Captain Carter?
30:48Do you guys have any real injury?
30:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
30:51Sorry.
30:53You broke my heart?
30:55Wait, wait.
30:56You broke my heart, too.
30:58All right.
30:59Leave my station before I give you something to cry about.
31:01Ooh.
31:04Look, I don't think you know who you're dealing with, little girl.
31:07What did I do?
31:14What did I do?
31:19Jackson!
31:20We were just looking for you right now.
31:21We couldn't find you, so we came over here.
31:25Yo, we were just joking.
31:29We were just hastening the new guy, okay?
31:31It was all in good fun.
31:33What do you think, Cindy?
31:34Was it all in good fun?
31:38You heard her.
31:39Hey, hey, hey.
31:39Please, please, please, please.
31:40Flip, flip.
31:41We're sorry, boss.
31:42All right?
31:43We're sorry, Cindy.
31:47Let go.
31:51Hey, you okay?
31:52I'm sorry about that.
31:54Yeah, I'm fine.
31:56Thanks to you.
31:57Just doing my job.
31:59Well, your men make it impossible for me to do mine, so I'm going to quit.
32:04What?
32:09No, no, no, no, you can't quit.
32:11You just started.
32:13If I wanted to be mocked every day, then I would just beg Vanessa for my job back.
32:17All right, this will never happen again.
32:19It's a one-time occurrence, I promise.
32:21If it ever happens again...
32:27That was a pretty gnarly punch.
32:30Let me see.
32:32It's a pretty gnarly swelling.
32:35It was nothing.
32:36Yeah, whatever.
32:41Look at you, saving me for once.
32:44Just doing my job.
32:48You know, you're different now.
32:51Then when we were younger, you're stronger and tougher.
32:58Well, being a single mother will do that to anyone.
33:01You should try it.
33:04You've been alone this whole time?
33:11Just make sure that your hand stays dry for about three hours.
33:14I've got to go get organized.
33:17I guess I'm staying.
33:25So Gary just abandoned her?
33:28I need to know more.
33:30If Cindy won't tell me, I'll go to Gary.
33:39I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
33:43Man, it's been too long.
33:45How you been?
33:46What brings you in today?
33:48You have no idea what you're talking about.
33:53She's got some questions.
33:55About Cindy.
33:57Oh, that broad.
33:58Oh, she's got issues, man.
34:01Yeah, she begged me to come back to her.
34:03And then, after she dumped you, she told me that she didn't even want to be with me.
34:10What about Noah?
34:12Who the fuck is Noah?
34:14Come on, man.
34:15It's been years.
34:16Let's talk about some of that matters.
34:18Forget that psycho bitch.
34:19Like, I got something real for you.
34:21Oh, fuck.
34:22It's Salter again.
34:27Yo, you're loco, man.
34:29You two deserve each other.
34:31If Gary's not the father, then who is?
34:35What the hell's going on, Cindy?
34:44Mom, this is disgusting.
34:47Noah!
34:47Hey, Cindy.
34:49I need to...
34:49Save us!
34:52What's up, little man?
34:53Mom can't cook to save her life.
34:55Oh, no.
34:55Excuse me?
34:57Yeah, he's not lying.
34:59Fine.
35:00Last time I'd do anything nice for you, people.
35:03Okay, tell me.
35:04How do you like your burger cooked?
35:06Medium rare.
35:08No way.
35:09Me, too.
35:11You know what that makes us?
35:12What?
35:13Taste buds.
35:15Oh, my gosh.
35:16Are you guys sure with all those similarities?
35:18You two are not related.
35:28You all right?
35:29Mm-hmm.
35:30Yeah.
35:31Long pipe.
35:33Listen, can you watch Noah for a second while we...
35:37We?
35:38Clean up the plates.
35:39There's only two plates, so...
35:41Come on.
35:41You...
35:41Come on with my plates.
35:43Okay?
35:45I'll help you clean the plates.
35:50I, uh...
35:51Actually, hey, I'm gonna go talk to your mom real quick, but you stay here.
35:54Okay?
35:55Okay.
35:55Okay, go down the fort for me.
35:57All right, I'll be right back.
36:12What are you doing?
36:14It's already as difficult as is.
36:17Jackson isn't stupid.
36:18He's gonna find out eventually that he's not the father, and then what are you gonna do about it?
36:22Hey, what you guys talking about?
36:25What did you hear?
36:27Nothing.
36:29You mind if I talk to Cindy for a second alone?
36:32Uh, yeah.
36:33I have to use the bathroom anyway.
36:38Uh, you and Noah are getting along great.
36:41Oh, yeah.
36:41He's a great kid.
36:42Yeah.
36:43You know, I'd love to help out more, you know, if you'd let me.
36:46Take him to school, pick him up from soccer practice, whatever you need.
36:53Ice cream!
36:56You want to babysit?
36:58You're a fire captain, right?
37:00That's a little below your pay grade.
37:01No, no, no, no.
37:03I just want to be part of your guys' lives.
37:09You know, and...
37:11Noah?
37:12Where's Noah?
37:13Shh!
37:25He lost a lot of blood.
37:26Is anyone a negative for transfusion?
37:29I am, but I can't.
37:30I'm his mother.
37:31Uh, anyone else?
37:32I'm a universal downer.
37:33Perfect.
37:34Come with me.
37:34No, no, no, no, no.
37:35There has to be someone else.
37:36Cindy, stop.
37:37There's no time.
37:37No, it can't be you.
37:39Why?
37:39Why won't you let me help him?
37:41No!
37:41Okay, I don't need your help.
37:43Leave.
37:50I'm sorry.
37:55Cindy, I know you're scared, but the longer you keep this a secret,
37:59the more pain it's going to cause for the both of you.
38:02I just don't know what to do right now.
38:04I know.
38:07Goodness!
38:08We've located Thelnau Plasma.
38:09I just need your signature, okay?
38:11Right here.
38:19You know, it's just, every time I feel like we're finally getting closer, she shuts me
38:24out.
38:24I don't get it.
38:25I mean, she's been alone for so long, and you guys didn't really end up well last time.
38:29What if she's just scared?
38:31What, and I'm not?
38:32Well, she's the one that dumped me.
38:34Yeah, I know.
38:35I know.
38:35How about she wouldn't even let me donate blood to Thelnau?
38:38Luckily, we found a plasma donor, but what if we didn't?
38:41Why won't she let me help?
38:43Wait, they didn't let you donate?
38:45No!
38:46That's crazy, right?
38:48Wait, didn't you say Gary wasn't the father?
38:50Yeah.
38:52And?
38:53Direct relatives can't give blood to other direct relatives, so...
38:57Yo, what if you're Noah's dad?
39:06You're my dad!
39:07Peace, buds.
39:09Who the fuck is Noah?
39:24Amanda's right.
39:25I can't keep hiding this.
39:27Jackson deserves to know, and Noah does too.
39:34How's he doing?
39:36Good.
39:38Hey.
39:39I need to talk.
39:42I talked to Gary.
39:44What?
39:45You had no right to do that.
39:47You wouldn't tell me anything.
39:48I needed answers.
39:51Cindy?
39:54Is Noah my son?
40:01I...
40:02I mean, that's the only thing I can think of, why you wouldn't let me donate blood.
40:06I mean, when I first met him, we had an instant connection.
40:10And every time I've seen him since, I've realized that he eats like me, he talks like me, how he
40:16even looks like me.
40:19Why won't you tell me?
40:21Why won't you tell me?
40:21Is Noah my son?
40:24Cindy, just tell me, is Noah my son?
40:29Noah is your son.
40:31So if I open up my heart this way
40:34And that's why maybe I'm...
40:41Why wouldn't you just say that?
40:44How could you hide this from me for eight years?
40:47What could I have possibly done to you that was so bad?
40:50Did you know?
40:51When you broke up with me?
40:54Get rid of the baby and disappear from this life.
40:58I swear I will destroy everything.
41:01You have.
41:02But I love him!
41:05We love each other!
41:09If you really love him, then walk away.
41:14My son deserves better.
41:20Exit, I was so young.
41:22And I was scared.
41:24And you had all these big dreams that you had to go do.
41:28What? The stupid firefighter program?
41:30You thought I cared more about that than him?
41:33Than you?
41:33No!
41:34No!
41:36I knew that you didn't.
41:38That's why I left.
41:39Because I knew that you wouldn't.
41:42But, Jackson...
41:44You didn't fight me on it.
41:46You never...
41:48You never asked me to stay.
41:50Well, because you said you didn't love me anymore!
41:52What?
41:53I never stopped loving you!
41:56Jackson, for every second of every day for the last eight years, I've been waiting for you.
42:05Hoping that you'd call or you'd text something, anything!
42:14I've dreamt about telling you about it all along.
42:17I wasn't strong enough.
42:20I just wish I had been brave and I didn't let your mother control.
42:25I mean...
42:42It looks like the cat's finally out the bag.
42:46Um, it's just...
42:48You were just, uh...
42:49I thought I said, no more lies.
42:54There's no more.
42:58Hey, you know what?
43:01I know his birthday's tomorrow.
43:04You know what he's always wanted?
43:11Dad.
43:13Here you go.
43:16I know just the right thing.
43:29So, what kind of cake would the birthday boy like?
43:34Honestly, I have no idea.
43:37New to this whole dad thing, huh?
43:39Yeah.
43:39I just found out 20 minutes ago.
43:41He doesn't even know.
43:42Oh, wow.
43:43Okay.
43:44Well, let's just start with his name then.
43:46Noah.
43:47I do know that.
43:48Gotcha.
43:50Thanks.
43:55Noah is Jackson's son?
44:00I am going to mess you up, Cindy White.
44:05Wait, sir!
44:07I need an address!
44:10I'll tell you.
44:13Don't worry, I'm a friend of the family.
44:15What's up with me?
44:23Cake for Jackson?
44:25That's me.
44:25Thank you, sir.
44:26No problem.
44:32Are you nervous?
44:34Is it that obvious?
44:36Don't be. You'll be great.
44:38Don't worry. Once you're out of here, I'm going to throw you the biggest party ever.
44:42Who says we have to wait?
44:45Surprise! Happy birthday!
44:48You remembered!
44:49How could I forget the coolest kid in town's birthday?
44:52There you go.
44:54Can I open it, Mom?
44:55Yes.
45:13I don't know what happened there. I'm so sorry.
45:17It must have been some kind of mistake. Don't worry about that.
45:19Why does everyone call me a bastard?
45:21Why don't I have a dad?
45:27No, you do have a dad.
45:29I do?
45:36I'm your father.
45:40Is that true?
45:44To the best that I could have possibly imagined!
45:48But where have you been all my life? Did you not want to be my dad?
45:54Of course I wanted to be your dad. I was... I was just scared.
46:00Why?
46:03You know, every day I put my life out on the line fighting fires.
46:08I was just afraid that maybe one day I wouldn't be able to come home.
46:12But thanks to your mom, I'm finally brave enough to be here for you.
46:21Can you ever forgive me?
46:22Yeah.
46:22Of course.
46:24Dad.
46:24Yeah.
46:32Are you excited?
46:35Yeah.
46:36Noah!
46:38Noah!
46:38You're alive!
46:39Yes!
46:40And I have a dad!
46:41Whoa!
46:42Is that him?
46:43That's me.
46:45You're the firefighter from the news!
46:48Hey!
46:48Nice to meet you.
46:49I'm Noah's dad.
46:51Can we take a selfie?
46:53Um, yes.
46:55We can.
46:56Here we go.
47:00Beautiful.
47:01Thank you!
47:02Mm-hmm.
47:03Your dad is so cool.
47:05I know!
47:05We knew some firefighting stories you told me!
47:08He's totally showing.
47:10Yeah?
47:14What a great kid.
47:17Oh, who's it?
47:19Harry!
47:20At the station.
47:21Let me take this.
47:22Hey!
47:24You guys ready?
47:26Okay, great.
47:27I'll be there as soon as I can.
47:28I thought we were done with Elias?
47:38Jackson has a son?
47:40Out of all people, it's Cindy.
47:42I know.
47:43But I taught the bride a lesson.
47:46Broke bastard on his birthday cake.
47:49Genius.
47:51Show me that.
47:52That's a personal order.
47:54Did I ask?
48:00It's stunning.
48:04Oh, it's engraved.
48:06It says it's for...
48:10Cindy White?
48:12Whose order is this?
48:13Jackson Carter.
48:15THE Jackson Carter.
48:17The Fire Captain?
48:21She's baby trapping him and he's falling for it.
48:25Not on my watch.
48:36It's ready?
48:38Okay, great.
48:39I'll be there as soon as I can.
48:44Hey, baby.
48:47What's on your mind?
48:51Um...
48:51The call you got earlier.
48:55I kind of...
48:56overheard it.
48:58Thought there was gonna be no secrets, remember?
49:07Well, you may have noticed I'm not wearing my necklace.
49:12Yeah, that seems strange.
49:16It's because I took it to a jeweler and...
49:21La, la, la, la, la, la.
49:22Not listening.
49:23Not listening.
49:24You asked.
49:25I...
49:25Sorry.
49:26Whatever you're saying, I can't hear you.
49:28La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
49:31I should have never doubted the tarot.
49:33I'm sorry.
49:35Okay, I've accepted my fate.
49:37Can you please just tell me if he's going to propose?
49:39Amanda, please.
49:41Andy White?
49:43Yes?
49:44Can I help you?
49:45Yeah, I was actually looking for a gas station if you want.
49:51I was actually looking for a gas station if you want.
49:55Is Andy, are you still there?
49:56No!
49:57No!
49:58Are you screaming?
50:04Hey!
50:08Jackson!
50:10This guy's just kidnapped Sidney and put it in a van.
50:13What?
50:13Yeah.
50:14I pulled security footage.
50:15I'll call 911.
50:15Yeah, yeah.
50:20Let's go.
50:26Welcome up.
50:27You got our GPS location?
50:34Stay here.
50:42You're not so sassy now, are you?
50:46Vanessa, stop!
50:50Don't do something you're in a regret.
50:52Trust me, I'm not.
50:55Don't do this.
50:56Let's just, let's just talk.
50:58About what?
51:00About you marrying this slut?
51:02Or about you crawling back to your family to get her location?
51:06I thought that you were never going to go back to them, remember?
51:14I know you're hurt, Vanessa.
51:16It's between me and you, okay?
51:18Just leave Cindy out of this.
51:19This is a big misunderstanding, okay?
51:22What do you say?
51:24I say...
51:26Leave Cindy and marry me.
51:34I take that as a no.
51:36You really love her, don't you?
51:43That's too bad.
51:45Because I really didn't want to do this.
51:48But you're not really leaving me a choice.
51:51Put the lighter down.
51:52Let's just talk.
51:54If I can't have you...
51:56She certainly can't.
51:57So that's enough?
51:58No, no, no, no, no!
52:14Yo, Jackson's still in there!
52:15Come on, go, go!
52:26Jackson!
52:27You're alive!
52:32Jackson!
52:33Jackson!
52:34Somebody help, please!
52:37Let go of me, you pig!
52:40Jackson is mine!
52:41You're alive!
52:43You're alive!
52:43You're alive!
52:44You're alive!
52:48Jackson, please.
52:49Please hold on, don't leave me.
52:51Lexi, Lexi.
52:54You can't get rid of me.
52:56No!
52:57Jackson!
52:58No, please!
53:00Please!
53:02Jackson!
53:16Cindy!
53:17Hi, Jackson.
53:18Hi, I'm here.
53:20No, no, no!
53:21Easy, easy.
53:22I don't want to push anything.
53:24Here, can I get some water?
53:26Yeah.
53:26Please.
53:27Yeah, sure, Dad.
53:30Here you go.
53:32Don't worry.
53:33We'll take good care of you.
53:39Come here.
53:42You're the best kid a dad could ask for.
53:44I'll go get you medicine.
53:48He's really stepping up.
53:50He's amazing.
53:53He can't do that.
53:54He missed so much with his life already.
53:57I know.
53:59Cindy.
54:05Mom?
54:07That must be your son.
54:09He's so beautiful.
54:11What are you doing here?
54:13How do you know about Cindy's son?
54:17Because I paid her to leave you.
54:20So she wouldn't trap you with a baby.
54:24I told her I'd ruin her life if she didn't leave you.
54:28What?
54:29Is that what you're doing here now?
54:31To threaten her again?
54:32No.
54:33Is that what...
54:34Mom?
54:35Get out.
54:36No.
54:37Mom?
54:37Get the fuck out of here!
54:39Go!
54:39Jackson.
54:40I'm sorry, son.
54:41I'm so sorry.
54:44Cindy.
54:45Why...
54:46Why didn't you just tell me?
54:48I thought you said no more lies.
54:53I'm a mother now.
54:56And even though I would never make the choices that you did,
55:02I can understand them.
55:06And I forgive you.
55:09You're a strong woman, Cindy.
55:11And an excellent mother.
55:17I'll give you two sims, please.
55:25Jackson, I'm so sorry for everything.
55:28When Cindy broke up with you, I saw how heartbroken you were,
55:31and I immediately knew I'd made a terrible mistake.
55:36But I knew you'd never stop fighting for her.
55:40I truly want nothing but the best for both of you.
55:49Dad, who's the crying lady?
55:52It's your grandma.
55:54Why don't you give her a hug?
55:57Hi, Grandma.
55:58I'm Noah.
56:00Hi, Noah.
56:02Don't worry.
56:03It's okay.
56:06Yes.
56:07It is now.
56:24Wow.
56:26Hey.
56:28Where is the uniform?
56:29I got it.
56:30You got the ring?
56:32I got it.
56:33All right.
56:34Speaking of, how's Cindy getting here?
56:35Only the best is bring it home.
56:37Mom, could you please go to Dad's photo shoot?
56:39Please, please, please, please?
56:43Fine.
56:44Because you asked.
56:54What is going on?
56:56Surprise!
56:58What?
56:59What is all of this?
57:06I want to make up for all the lost time.
57:09Give Noah a home and a wedding where you've already served.
57:16So you're white.
57:19Will you marry me?
57:20Yes!
57:23Yes.
57:24A million times, yes.
57:50The door.
57:51Wait, the door!
57:52What?
57:54I know.
57:55I'm trying to do it naturally.
57:58Ow!
58:00Ow!
58:01Just doing my job.
58:02Oh, f***.
58:02Sorry, one more time.
58:04If it ever happens again...
58:10Jesus.
58:13Shh.
58:14Blue light.
58:16For the rest of life.
58:21For the rest of my life.
58:23For the rest of my life.
