00:14Hey, look at me. Deep breaths. The stars are beautiful tonight, right? Once I get you out, we'll go look
00:19at them together.
00:20We're not going to make it out.
00:24As long as I'm here, even hell won't take you.
00:30Harper, this is the will of your father, Chief Daly. As his only daughter, you will inherit full operational rights
00:36to this firehouse.
00:38However, there is a condition.
00:40I'll agree to whatever it is. This is my dad's life's work. This is my home.
00:43The will stipulates that the heir must present a valid legal marriage certificate before the age of 30.
00:48Otherwise, the firehouse will be foreclosed by the town and auctioned out.
00:5130? I turned 30 in exactly three months. Is he forcing me to grab some random guy off the street
00:54and marry him?
01:11Well, look who it is. Colorado's bravest firefighter, about to become a homeless stray dog.
01:16Get off my property, Dewey. Unless you want me to power wash that greasy brain of yours.
01:22Your property? Harper, don't waste your time. The council approved my ski resort proposal.
01:25And the second your ridiculous little will expires, bulldozers are coming in to level everything your father left you.
01:28Listen to me. Even if I have to marry a pig, you will not touch one brick at this fire
01:31station.
01:32Is that right? Well, then you better hope some blind idiot is willing to marry you a gasoline-scented, fire
01:35-breathing lunaturk within the next three months.
01:40Let's go.
01:43Here he is.
03:14Does everyone not know yet?
03:16Chief Daney made a will before he died.
03:17If Harper can't get married before she's 30, the firehouse gets confiscated.
03:20Look at her.
03:20Crude, savage, reeking of sweat.
03:21What normal man would dare marry her?
03:23She's destined to be a lonely old splinted.
03:28So, Mr. Mayor, just to prove my acquisition proposal directly, after all, there's absolutely
03:34no way she can conjure up a fiancé out of thin hair before the deadline.
03:59Who says I can't conjure one up?
04:01Open your damn dog eyes and look closely.
04:04This is my fiancé.
04:11Harper, is your brain fried from Smokestation?
04:14That is the state inspector who's trying to shut down your firehouse.
04:16If you're going to lie, at least find someone who doesn't look like your sworn enemy.
04:19Do we?
04:21We won't send you.
04:23Well, Ethan, heart correction.
04:25Not only are we not enemies, but...
04:29Yes, we are engaged.
04:31And the wedding is next week.
04:53Is your brain waterlogged?
04:55Why did you help me?
04:56You just wrote me a shutdown notice yesterday.
05:00I wasn't helping you.
05:01I simply despised Dewey Clark's behavior of using capital and patriarchal logic to destroy
05:04other people's rules.
05:05Furthermore, according to state law, if he successfully acquires the land, my inspection
05:08report becomes legally void, which would be a stain on my resume.
05:10Regardless, thank you, but this was just a stop-stop measure.
05:12I'll go clarify things with the council.
05:14Clarify what?
05:15Clarify that you told a massive lie in front of the whole town?
05:17According to regulations, perjury is enough for the town council to revoke your firefighting
05:20license immediately.
05:20You won't just lose the firehouse, you'll go to jail.
05:22So, since the lie has been told, to prevent my resume from being damaged and to keep you
05:25out of jail, we only have one choice.
05:26Turn the lie into reality.
05:27You carry this kind of thing around with you?
05:29Dictated in the car 10 minutes ago, just printed with a Bluetooth printer.
05:32Sign it, fiancé.
05:32get it, fiancé.
06:01To be continued...
06:02Harper Daly to be your wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, to love and to
06:07cherish, till death do you part.
06:09I death do you part.
06:10I do.
06:12Harper Daly, do you...
06:17I do.
06:19It's fake! It's all fake!
06:21Reverend, this is an absolute scam! They haven't even held hands!
06:33Now, are there any more questions, Mr. Clark?
06:37I now pronounce you husband and wife.
06:57Are you raising pigs in here or manufacturing biological weapons?
07:02If you think it's dirty, you can roll out and sleep on the street.
07:05Since we signed the contract to fake this marriage, we have to stay in the same room.
07:08Otherwise, Dewey Spies will figure it out by tomorrow.
07:20Last year's lightning fire.
07:23In my eyes, this is a class one carcinogen residue.
07:30This is my terry. I sleep on the bed. You go sleep in the sleeping bag on the floor.
07:33According to clause 7 of the contract, party A must provide party B with an ergonomically sound resting environment.
07:38My spine does not permit me to sleep on a dusty hardwood floor.
07:48Okay, fine. You want fair? You want rules?
07:53The line is drawn. I got left, you got right. And nobody crosses this line by half an inch.
08:04Deal. I just hope you don't sleep like a wild boar and roll all over the place.
08:12Two centimeters over the line. Bring it back.
08:15Shut up. Say one more word and I'll shove your glasses down your throat.
08:19Harper! Ethan! Open up! Harper! Ethan! Open up!
08:26The pipe downstairs just burst. You two loveboards can't be sleeping through this.
08:32Or are you not sleeping together at all?
08:42Harper!
08:49Quick! The clothes!
08:53Harper! Ethan! Open up!
08:55What the hell is wrong with you?
08:57Old Bill watched me grow up. He's incredibly sharp.
09:01If we answer the door fully dressed, he'll absolutely know we're faking.
09:05Cooperate.
09:09Uh, sorry to interrupt. There's a pipe burst downstairs and I just wanted to make sure that you weren't flooded.
09:14Looks like you got your hands full.
09:16It's okay, Uncle Bill. We're just enjoying our wedding night, aren't we, honey?
09:19Yeah.
09:20All right.
09:24Harper, I've known you for 20 years. You never put the cat back on the toothpaste.
09:27There are rumors outside that you fake married to save the firehouse.
09:31If you are truly a married couple in love, prove it to me.
09:37You know why I'm asking. Prove it to me.
09:46Bill, you know why Harper never puts the cat back on the toothpaste?
09:52Three years ago, during the chemical plant rescue, she suffered second-degree burns on the tiger-herse mothal.
09:56Her nirgings will hang, hang.
09:57She's too strong to let anyone know that she can't hold a toothpick iron.
10:00So in this room, I'll do the twisting.
10:01This doesn't need to be proven. It's my instinct.
10:04I guess I'm really old.
10:05Good night, kids. We'll talk about the water tomorrow.
10:17Crisis averted.
10:18You're up at 6.30 tomorrow morning per our agreement.
10:21You're joining me for a morning run.
10:38Citizens!
10:40Do you really believe that shrewk who can't even cook a meal is in love with the heartless inspector who's
10:45here to shut down our fire station?
10:47This is a scam! A fake marriage to steal our land!
10:54Fists don't solve legal problems. Let's see what he's doing.
11:06Harper, this weekend is our town's annual shrink fair water relay vice.
11:10Every loving in town go with ties to it.
11:12You got our really in's eye, then our dare can tear up.
11:15Not a red!
11:16We'll go, I got some mooting back in, old gel chan, you ma playin' fraud!
11:21We're in.
11:22And if we win, Mr. Clark, I want you to eat your ski resort proposal in front of the entire
11:27town.
11:28You're on!
11:29Get ready to pack your bags, Mr. District Attorney!
11:46ETHAN BLACK, YOU HAVE BEEN UP THERE FOR 15 MINUTES!
11:50ARE YOU A CUT STUCK IN A TREE?
11:52Based on the aerodynamics, the wind stream up here exceeds critical value for unrope climbing.
11:56I'm waiting for the wind to subside.
12:02ETHAN BLACK, YOU HAVE BEEN UP THERE FOR 15 MINUTES!
12:04Hey big prosecutor, don't look at the ground, look at me.
12:09Yeah.
12:11I promise you're not gonna fall and if you do, I'll catch you, give me your hand.
12:49Do exactly what I say.
12:50Two meters forward and then turn 45 degrees left.
12:55Dammit, you're off.
12:56I can't see.
12:57Ethan, your data won't work in here.
12:59I need to know what's in front of me.
13:03Harper, stop.
13:05Breathe.
13:06Close your mouth and breathe through your nose.
13:10Lift my breathing.
13:14Now lift your left foot and step over it.
13:17That's a hose.
13:18I pledge it's sound.
13:20Okay.
13:21Go.
13:40Miracle.
13:41It's a miracle.
13:42Harper and Ethan came from behind to win the annual Couple Fire Relay Championship.
13:47Go.
13:49Go.
14:00You did it.
14:11Congratulations.
14:12Here's your grand prize.
14:13A seven-day romantic luxury trip for two to Hawaii.
14:45Okay, team, this is the breakout route.
14:49The wind shear index has reached a dangerous threshold.
14:52The canyon to the southwest will create a chimney effect.
14:55Harper, according to safety regulations, you cannot lead the team to break through from the front.
14:58This is animals to suicide.
15:01This is animals to suicide.
15:02If I don't cut a fire break from the front, this fire will reach the elementary school in the center
15:05of town in half an hour.
15:06There are 300 kids there who haven't been evacuated yet.
15:08You're talking about regulations?
15:09I am the state safety commander.
15:10I order you to stay behind the safety line.
15:12You're just an inspector here to close my station.
15:14You are not my chief.
15:15You are not my husband.
15:16Stay in your safe zone and count your numbers.
15:41Command, command, this is strike team one.
15:44The wind has shifted and we're trapped in sector C4.
15:46Requesting helicopter water drop.
15:48Requesting immediate assistance.
16:02Don't wait to die.
16:03Come with me and chop a path to the east.
16:07Harper, answer me!
16:09Harper Darcy!
16:11Get your support and parking copy down.
16:12Further to AdWiz in 509.
16:15Sir, there's nothing we can do.
16:17The fire's too big.
16:18We can't get a helicopter in there.
16:19They're not going to make it.
16:20Harper!
16:21You're a good host.�
16:51What are you doing? You're a desk-jacker inspector! You don't even know how to use that thing! You'll get
16:56yourself killed!
17:00I swore three years ago I'd never go back into a fire, but I'd rather die in there today than
17:04watch another one of my people burn to death.
17:32Wait for me, Harper. If you dare die, I'll drag you back from hell myself.
18:05Ethan, are you crazy? Why are you here?
18:10Shut up! According to the principle of thermal convection, we only have 30 seconds to rush into that cave for
18:16shelter. Come with me!
18:22Are you hurt? Say something!
18:24Do you have any idea how close you came to dying? What the hell were you thinking?
18:27When I got here, this place was just a number on a file. Now I know it's everything to you.
18:31Harper, I'm not going to let them shut it down, and I'm sure as hell not going to let you
18:33die.
18:48Members of the council, this is the latest report from the state's independent investigation.
18:53It clearly states that Harper Daly's misdirection and use of outdated equipment during the wildfires three days ago,
18:58but we nearly destroyed this town.
19:00That was we saved the elementary school, and you're here twisting the truth?
19:03Don't give me that. Page 14 of this report shows your fire truck's pump failed to maintain pressure at a
19:10critical moment.
19:11This is gross negligence. The state has decided. Your license is revoked.
19:15The fire station will be condemned and demolished immediately.
19:25So help me God, if you so much as touch one brick of that fire station, I will lock you
19:30up and throw away the key.
19:39Who the hell do you think you are?
19:41You're suspended by the state security board.
19:44Sergeant at arms, throw him out!
19:52I am the former senior tactical commander of the New York Fire Department and the current state special inspector.
19:58This is the original black box data from truck three of the Colorado fire station.
20:04Your report claims insufficient water pressure.
20:06Black box data shows that 12 minutes before the explosion, the pump turbines were spinning at a maximum of 4
20:09,000 RPM.
20:10Water pressure was more than adequate.
20:11You didn't just alter the flow data.
20:12You also shifted the weather service wind speed timeline by a full 20 minutes.
20:15Falsifying first-degree disaster scene data is enough to make you pick up soap in a federal prison for 10
20:18years.
20:18Who ordered you to do this?
20:34Today at the hearing.
20:53If it wasn't for you, my dad's legacy would have gone down in flames.
20:59I told you I wasn't going to let this place close.
21:07Uh, look, that's Orion.
21:20I don't want to look at the stars.
21:22Harper, I'm looking at you.
21:34Dig into it and dig deep.
21:38I refuse to believe that this character Black is some kind of saint.
21:43Why the hell would a high-ranking commander with the New York City Fire Department come out to the middle
21:47of nowhere to be a lowly inspector?
21:54Mr. Clark, this is the top-secret naval file I might from New York for $50,000.
21:59You're right.
22:00This Ethan Black has two lives on his back.
22:02Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
22:03It's perfect!
22:05It's perfect!
22:07It's perfect!
22:07It's perfect!
22:07Harper, Harper, Harper.
22:09You treat your father's firehouse like it's some kind of shrine.
22:13And you get involved with a man who let his own men die?
22:18Call a town hall meeting.
22:20I want every councilman, every reporter, and that fire chief there.
22:24I'm going to hold a public inquiry.
22:26I'm going to strip that phony of his honor in front of the whole town.
22:36Sorry, Tal.
22:38He brought meneric words in Roth when slish.
22:43His streams end blessed home to the key that will leave dead and not his fine day.
22:49People of the town, you think Ethan Black is the hero who saved our town?
22:52You've been fooled!
22:53He's no hero!
22:54He's a coward!
22:55A murderer who has the blood of his comrade in his hands!
22:57Dwayne!
22:58Three years ago, a high-rise fire in Brooklyn has machine new data.
23:01Punched that building structure within those 202 and rest me daters in the ruins.
23:03With the name, no remains left!
23:16The accident investigation cleared him of any legal wrongdoing.
23:19But he couldn't live with what he'd done.
23:21He was terrified.
23:21So he ran.
23:22He hid in our town, taking a job as a civilian inspector where he'd never have to make a
23:25life-or-death decision again.
23:27Your proud husband, Harper, is nothing more than a courage face of fire.
23:29Ethan, tell them he's lying.
23:31Tell me this isn't true.
23:36Ethan, say something.
23:37You're the one who's always contradicting him with data.
23:40Tell me this is fake and that asshole forged it.
23:51See that?
23:52He's not denying it.
23:53This coward doesn't even the guts to defend himself.
23:56Harper Darling, your father spent his whole life protecting this town and you let a coward
24:01join his fire station.
24:03Are you even worthy of being his daughter?
24:07So it's all true.
24:08You've been lying to me this whole time.
24:10You're not some cold, heartless rule follower.
24:12You're just a coward, hiding behind data because you're scared of your own past.
24:42You know why I hate what Dewey said so much?
24:44Because he was right about one thing.
24:46I hate the man you've become because you're just like my dad.
24:49When my dad got sick, he didn't tell anyone.
24:51He went through it alone, throwing up in his office all night long, but he never let me
24:54see him weak.
24:55He would have died before he ever said to me, Harper, I'm scared.
24:57Help me.
24:57You too.
24:58You were miserable and insane and you ran into a fire and risked your life for me.
25:01But when something happens to you, your first instinct is to shut the hell up.
25:04You push everyone away with your silence.
25:06You don't trust me to handle you.
25:07You only trust yourself.
25:08I'm so tired of being shut out.
25:09I don't need a perfect commander.
25:11I need a partner who's willing to be broken with me.
25:18The contract is over.
25:19Go back to New York where you belong.
25:33You know why I hate what Dewey said so much?
25:36Because one part was true.
25:39I hate the man you've become.
25:42Because you are exactly like my father.
26:13I hate the man you've become.
26:35I know what you're all thinking.
26:39Dewey's right.
26:41Three years ago, my overconfidence and my faith in numbers got my two best brothers killed.
26:47I'm a sinner.
26:49That fire, I didn't run.
26:51I tried to go back in and pull them out, but the building collapsed.
26:55I thought if I never ran a command again, no one else would die because of me.
27:00I locked myself away with silence and rules.
27:03But someone showed me escape is not safety.
27:06True courage is running back into the fire with the scars you already have.
27:09I'm an asshole, but I swear as long as I'm breathing, I'll bring everyone at Colorado Fire Station back in
27:13one piece.
27:14Kid, in this station, we don't care about your past if you're willing to put your life on the line
27:16for us.
27:17Now go get our captain back.
27:23Attention all units.
27:24We have a code 4 structure fire at the town center elementary school.
27:28Repeat, structure fire at the elementary school.
27:32I need backup.
27:49Team one and two with me.
27:51Water cover, we're breaching the front door.
27:53No, Harper, stop.
27:56There's a negative pressure backdraft at the front door.
27:58You cut that door, oxygen rushes in, it's going to blow in 10 seconds.
28:02You will all be dead at the doorway.
28:04So tell me how we're supposed to get in.
28:06There are hundreds of kids in there.
28:07Listen to me, I'm not looking at numbers anymore, Harper.
28:08I'm looking at the wind.
28:09The wind's shifting north.
28:10Have Bill take two rigs to the south side and douse it with coolant to create a pressure differential.
28:13Harper, take your team to the north side, second floor, and use the vent pipe.
28:15You've got three minutes to get a path in.
28:16After that, the roof's coming down.
28:17You put your life in my hands, you hear me?
28:19I'm listening.
28:37The state approved my request.
28:39I turned down the promotion in New York.
28:41From now on, I'm the permanent tactical advisor for the Colorado stations.
28:44This time, it's not about a will or keeping a firehouse open or any damn deal.
28:47It's because you're the only person in the world I want to give my life to
28:51and the only person I want to run into a fire with.
28:53Harper Darley, will you do me the great honor of becoming my wife?
29:06My dad wrote in his journal that this was for his future son-in-law
29:09if the bastard was good enough for his daughter.
29:11Well, what do you think?
29:12Do I pass, Chief?
29:14Barely.
29:15But you've got the rest of our lives to prove it to me.
29:17You're welcome.
29:17You're welcome.
