[video description: 1 second video from 706 behind the scenes, of Anirudh and one of the twins

Anirudh squats on the ground, elbows resting on his thighs and hands clasped in front of him. He wears black trousers, a black t-shirt and brown plaid jacket, and grins at the camera. Next to him stands one of the twins, wearing blue jeans with heart patches over the knees, and a pink and white striped jumper. She brings her clasped hands up to one shoulder as her smile widens and she leans into Anirudh.

RAVI PANIKKAR & CHIMNEY HAN 6.14: PERFORMANCE ANXIETY

[911desis]

[image description: 10 gifs of Ravi and Chim, talking at the academy, in a corridor with portraits of those killed in the line of duty

plain text caption: Ravi Panikkar & Chimney Han, 6.14 : Performance Anxiety

GIF 1: Ravi leans against a wall. He looks downwards as he speaks, briefly glancing up at Chim before looking sadly back down, lost in memories as he says "It was a father and his two kids"

GIF 2: Chim listens seriously, nodding as he swallows. Ravi continues explaining, "I saved him but I was only able to get to one of the little ones in time," shaking his head slightly.

GIF 3: Ravi's eyes narrow in mild disbelief as he shakes his head repeatedly and tilts his head sideways, "What haunts me isn't the one that I lost." Chim listens on, lips pursed as Ravi says, "It's the one that I saved."

GIF 4: Ravi slowly walks towards Chim, a sarcastic kind of smile on his face as he keeps shaking his head while saying "That car didn't go off the pier on accident."

GIF 5: Ravi looks downwards, head jutting forward for emphasis as he says "The father drove it off the pier." He looks up, leaning in as he says "He wanted to kill his kids," and grits his teeth in disgust.

GIF 6: Chim looks up, eyes wide and eyebrows raised. He maintains eye-contact even as his head bobs while he says, "Listen, that's rough. But a situation like that, you got to hand it off."

GIF 7: Text reads "Focus on the taskin front of you." Chim nods once emphatically as he says, "We're in the business of saving lives," then shakes his head as he continues "not judging them."

GIF 8: Ravi looks off to the side, torn up as he says "Do you ever stop and think." His shoulders drop and sighs as he pleadingly asks, "that some people's lives just aren't worth saving?"

GIF 9: Chim looks up, shaking his head slightly as he states, "If you're thinking that, then you don't belong on the rig."

GIF 10: Ravi can't look at Chim. He swallows, lips pressed together, his eyes moving side to side as he let's out "I know," and looks down sadly.

[ID: Digital drawings of characters from abc's 9-1-1. The image is a short comic with four panels, depicting Ravi, Hen, and Chimney in uniform on a call.

The first panel depicts Chimney pulling an unconscious Ravi, and Hen running toward them urgently. There's a fire engine in the background with an unattributed speech bubble yelling, "Firefighter down!" Chim is saying, "Hen, I need you!" Hen says, "I'm here." And Chimney tells her "Ravi's down!"

The second panel shows them kneeling on the ground with Chimney doing a sternum rub on Ravi on the ground. He's saying, "I don't think he's breathing..." and Hen is looking on in concern. In the background there are more the legs of more uniformed firefighters running past.

The third panel is a close up of Ravi's face in profile, with Hen's hand on his neck checking his pulse. Off screen Hen is saying, "no pulse either, start compressions!"

The fourth panel is a top down view of Ravi on the ground with Chimney leaning over him starting CPR compressions, and Hen preparing to give him rescue breathes with the bag ventilator. Chimney is yelling, "C'mon kid, stay with us... Come on!"

In the corner of the first panel there's text than reads, 'tumblr@chimmaddie'. End ID.]

[image description: tiktok from Anirudh Pisharody

Audio is a mash-up between "brother, ew" and "heaven is a place on earth", with Anirudh miming along.

For the first half of the audio, Anirudh stands in front of a trailer, wearing a hoodie and pointing up at the sign reading "Ravi". He mimes along, "ew, what's that, brother, ew", which then blends into "ooh baby, do you know what's the worth (brother ew), ooh heaven is a place on earth" as Anirudh walks out of the trailer into the sun, wearing a turnout coat over a blue sweater, grinning and moving the camera away from himself to show the radio and his other hand wearing blue disposable gloves.
