CHICAGO FIRE – PROVE IT (S02E02)

Renee Royce: Hey [chuckles]

Kelly Severide: You’re -- you’re back early.

Renee Royce: Yeah, two weeks of my mom’s natural birthing

                         lectures was enough.

                         Come here. Feel this.

                         Crazy kicking for the last two days. The baby missed

                         you, I think.

Kelly Severide: I-I’m gonna be late, so I better get going, but, um,

                          we’ll catch up after shift?

Renee Royce: Sounds good.

Kelly Severide: Okay.

                                        [kissing sound]

Kelly Severide: Okay.

                                            cutscene

Matt Casey: Yeah, I’m just looking for any kind of an update.

Attorney: I don’t have one. Everything is up in the air right now.

Matt Casey: Okay, well, I-I still have the kids here.

Ben Darden: Where do you keep the cereal?

Matt Casey: Uh, call me back as soon as you hear anything.

                                         [phone beeps]

Matt Casey: Uh, yeah. All right. I’m gonna make you guys some

                      lunch for school.

Ben Darden: What about breakfast?

Matt Casey: Yes. Good point.

Griffin Darden: When’s my mom coming back from her trip?

Matt Casey: Soon, really soon.

                      Ben, just… here, put that stuff back, buddy. You guys

                      need to get dressed. We’re late.

Griffin Darden: Well, when you talk to mom, tell her we’re ready to

                          go home, okay?

Matt Casey: Evie will pick you up from school today.

                                         [glass shatters]

Matt Casey: Oh! Okay.

                     [grunts] I got this. Don’t worry

                     [sighs]

                                        [doorbell rings]

Ben Darden: I’ll get it!

Matt Casey: Thanks, Ben.

Griffin Darden: You missed some.

Matt Casey: Thanks, Griffin.

Gabby Dawson: Boo!

Matt Casey: Gabby.

Gabby Dawson: Hey. I figured I’d stop by on my way to work, see

                            how everyone’s doing.

Griffin Darden: I’m starving.

Gabby Dawson: All right. Whoever runs to the bedroom first and

                            gets dressed in under two minutes gets one of

                            these. I’m timing you. Go! I’m timing you! Get on it!

                            [chuckles]

Matt Casey: Impressive.

                     Did you talk to Antonio? I’m not getting anything from

                     the attorney.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, he says that Heather has a good chance of

                             getting out on probation soon. First offense, single

                             mother…

Griffin Darden: Cut it out! Stop it, Ben!

Ben Darden: Aah!

Matt Casey: Guys!

                                        [shouting continues]

Matt Casey: I hope he’s right.

                                                cutscene

                                    [door opens and closes]

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Kelly.

Kelly Severide: These arsons we’ve been fighting… M.O. matches

                           up with John Westminster. That’s a guy that my dad

                           helped put away a few years back.

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Yeah, yeah. “Big John” I remember. So?

Kelly Severide: So I called DOC. and it turns out he was released

                          from prison a month ago, right before the fires

                          started.

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): So you think he’s looking to settle the score

                                 with Benny by coming after you?

Kelly Severide: I think it’s worth looking into.

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Sure. Anything for Benny Severide’s kid.

                                    [door opens and closes]

                                               cutscene

Gail McLeod: [sighs] I-I don’t think you understand the seriousness

                        of this situation, Chief.

Chief Boden: Oh, I can assure you I do.

Gail McLeod: Then explain why you have yet to input any data into

                        The Wizard.

Chief Boden: I will, Ms. McLeod, as soon as I get five minutes.

Gail McLeod: No, today, this shift… unless you’d like me to get a

                        relief Battalion Chief to come in to do it for you.

Chief Boden: Hmm. I’ll get it done.

Gail McLeod: Good. Thank you, Chief.

Chief Boden: [scoffs]

                                      [ambo door shuts]

                                  [squad shutters closes]

Leslie Shay: Hey.

                                     [squad door shuts]

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Leslie Shay: So, the management company called to remind us that

                      the new tenants are gonna move in on the 16th.

Kelly Severide: Yeah, Renee and I can finish packing up this

                           weekend.

Leslie Shay: So does that mean you talked to her about the baby?

Kelly Severide: She just got back to town a few hours ago. Give

                          me a break, okay?

                                               cutscene

Lt. Spellman: 51 has the best food in town. Where’d you learn how

                       to cook?

Peter Mills: My family owns a restaurant. Been behind a grill since I

                     was a kid.

                                              [dog whines]

Kelly Severide: Any update on Heather’s friend, Jen?

Matt Casey: Still in critical condition.

Leslie Shay: Casey, how are the boys?

Matt Casey: As far as they know, mom’s on a trip. Hopefully they’ll

                      be home soon. If it hadn’t been for her, they’d have

                      shown up to school an hour late wearing pyjamas.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, that smelled like beer.

                                    [alarm blaring & buzzing]

(Over PA): Truck 81, Squad 3, Engine 51, Ambulance 61. Multi-

                   vehicle accident, Interstate 90 at the Eisenhower

                   Expressway.

                                         [sirens wailing]

Man 2 (Truck Driver): Hey! Hey, over here! Over here! Hey.

                                    Just before the house went over, I saw a

                                    motorcycle passing on the right.

Chief Boden: Go.

                              [fire extinguisher spraying]

Kelly Severide: [grunts] Sir?

                          I can feel his leg, just not a pulse.

                          All right, get me some cribbing and air bags. We

                          need to lift and stabilise this home.

Harold Capp: You got it.

Victim 1: [groans]

Kelly Severide: Boden, you hear that?

                           (into radio) Otis, Mouch, grab me a ladder.

                           (over radio) There’s someone else inside.

Otis Zvonecek: (into radio) Copy.

                           Severide, where do you want it?

Kelly Severide: Guys, right there.

                          Clarke, follow me.

                          Located the victim. Send me up a line.

Gabby Dawson: Ma’am? Can you hear me?

Leslie Shay: Airway’s clear. She’s breathing.

Kelly Severide: All right, I’m on line.

                          All right, going down.

Leslie Shay: Dawson.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah?

                             Back door’s open.

                             Casey! We got a missing kid. Ran from the car.

Matt Casey: Got it.

Chief Boden: (over radio) What have you got, Severide?

Kelly Severide: (over radio) He’s in bad shape. We need to find a

                           way to get him out of here quick.

Gabby Dawson: From the size of the seat, the kid could be

                            anywhere from, like, three to six years old.

Kelly Severide: Clarke… send me down a sawzall, then bring the

                           stokes basket.

Jeff Clarke: Got it. Send up a sawzall.

Kelly Severide: Got it.

                                           [saw whirring]

Harold Capp: Up on green.

Kelly Severide: [coughs] Found the owner of the boot.

                          (over radio) The other victim’s trapped beneath

                          ‘em. We need those airbags now!

                                             [whirring]

Matt Casey: There.

Harold Capp: (into radio) Air bags are up.

                       (over radio) Motorcyclist’s legs should be free,

                       Lieutenant.

Victim 1: [groans]

Kelly Severide & Jeff Clarke: One, two, three, up!

                                                 [grunts]

Kelly Severide: Go. There we go.

                           All right, guys, get ready to lift him up.

Matt Casey: Hey buddy. It’s okay. I’m Matt. What’s your name?

Child: Colin.

Matt Casey: Come on out. Come on. Let’s get you safe and

                      sound.

                                            [siren blares]

                                          - title screen -

Chief Boden: This “Wizard” program is the most convulated…

Mouch: Yeah, we should record this. Use it to show how

               ineffective McLeod’s systems are. This crazy budget

               tightening has nothing to do with saving lives.

Christopher Herrmann: Now you’re talking like a Union president.

Chief Boden: You will not record this.

Christopher Herrmann: Yeah, you know what? You need to get

                                         out there, you know, and start your

                                         campaign. Greg Sullivan’s already in high

                                         gear. I got one of his flyers in the mail

                                         yesterday.

Mouch: Me too. Nice, high-gloss paper. Guy’s got campaign

              funds.

Christopher Herrmann: Nah, forget the funds. You know what,

                                         the most valuable commodity in any

                                         election is the candidate themselves.

                                         Visit the firehouses, present ideas, take

                                         questions…town hall style.

Mouch: [slurping] It’s not a bad idea, Herrmann.

Chief Boden: Will the two of you kindly take your business

                        elsewhere?

                                                cutscene

Firefighter: He’s right there.

Matt Casey: Evie.

Woman 1 (Evie): Mr. Casey, I’m so sorry to bother you.

Matt Casey: Where are Griffin and Ben?

Woman 1 (Evie): Outside. My daughter has a sore throat, could be

                             strep. I-I need to take her to the doctor.

Matt Casey: Oh.

Woman 1 (Evie): I tried to get them to come inside, but there’s a

                            problem with Griffin.

                                         [car door closes]

Matt Casey: Griffin, come inside. We’ll give you guys a VIP tour.

Griffin Darden: He can go in. I’m staying outside.

Ben Darden: Hey, Dawson!

Gabby Dawson: Hey, guys.

                            Hi. I’ll take Ben inside.

Matt Casey: Thanks.

Christopher Herrmann: Hey! Ben Darden’s in the house!

Kelly Severide: Hey, you little rug rat! Look at you!  [laughs]

                          How you doing? You’re getting so big. Come on,

                          we’ll show you around the joint. How about that,

                          huh?

Ben Darden: Is that all of Chicago? Is my house on there?

Kelly Severide: Yep, it is. It shows us every street and address in

                           the city. Right there, that’s the ‘dangerous

                           buildings’ list. Every station has one. It shows us

                           all the buildings that are really tricky to fight fires

                           in.

Peter Mills: Yo, you want to come check out the truck? Yeah.

Joe Cruz: Hey.

                               [indistinct background chatter]

Griffin Darden: Ben’s an idiot for acting like this place is so cool.

Matt Casey: Your father loved it here.

Griffin Darden: I just want to go home, okay?

Matt Casey: I know.

Griffin Darden: [sighs]

Matt Casey: How about this? I’ll cancel my construction job. After

                      shift, we’ll go down to the pier. You can grab

                      whatever you want for lunch.

Ben Darden: Can I go up on the ladder?

Peter Mills: Uh, I-I think we’re gonna have to check on that one,

                     partner.

Joe Cruz: Rules say no visitors in the aerial… But then again,

                 you’re not just any visitor, huh?

Mouch: Chief, what do you say?

Chief Boden: Ah, go ahead.

                                              [cheering]

Ben Darden: Woo!

Joe Cruz: Come on.

Ben Darden: [laughs]

Renee Royce: [chuckles]

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Renee Royce: We barely got a chance to say hello this morning,

                         and you  seem so stressed, so I thought I’d come

                         and cheer you up. Now, my parents are a little too

                         excited about becoming grandparents. Oh… look

                         at this. Aw, come on! Isn’t this the sweetest?

                         Kelly… What’s going on with you?

Kelly Severide: Look, you know that I love you no matter what,

                          right? When you moved to Spain, we said that

                          we’d keep in touch but that we wouldn’t be

                          exclusive.

                          [sighs] Is there any chance this baby…

                                         [slapping sound]

                                            [door closes]

                               [knocks at door, door opens]

Chief Boden: Lieutenant? Arson just called. Wanted to let you

                       know that the cops have Big John in custody.

Kelly Severide: Thanks.

                                            [door closes]

Kelly Severide: [sighs]

                                               cutscene

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Hey, detectives are talking to him now. The

                                 bastard’s even twitcher than I remember.

Kelly Severide: You got anything solid tying him to the fires?

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Nothing.

Man 3 (Big John): Hey, look. It’s the arson guy’s son.

Kelly Severide: Two buildings up in flames?

Man 3 (Big John): Ooh!

Kelly Severide: Do you know how many people you almost killed?

                           Huh, how many of my own men, huh?

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Kelly!

Man 3 (Big John): Get away from me!

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Kelly! Kelly!

Man 3 (Big John): Get him away! Get him away from me!

Man 1 (Ken Rowe): Get him out of here! Get him out of here!

                                  Hey, I looped you in out of respect for your

                                  father, as a courtesy. You understand?

                                           [water running]

Gabby Dawson: I’m telling you, Renee looked pissed running out

                            of here.

Leslie Shay: What if I was wrong about the due date?

Gabby Dawson: That would be bad, Shay.

Leslie Shay: I don’t think I was, but I’m not a frickin’ obstetrician.

                                [knocks on bathroom door]

Joe Cruz: Taking too long!

Otis Zvonecek: Remember, as McLeod said, “only 42 ounces of

                           potable water per employee per week.”

Joe Cruz: [chuckles]

Leslie Shay: Sounds like you saved the day with Griffin and Ben

                      this morning.

Gabby Dawson: [chuckles] Yeah. I love those boys, but hanging

                            there with Casey? It’s not exactly helping me

                            move on.

                            You know what? I have been travelling in a too

                            small a circle, if you know what I’m saying. The

                            world does not start and end at Firehouse 51.

Leslie Shay: That is so damn true.

                                [knocks on bathroom door]

Joe Cruz: Let’s go! I have seen you both naked a hundred times!

                 Just open the door, so I can take a shower!

Gabby Dawson: We really need to get out more.

Leslie Shay: Yes. Yes, we do.

                                            cutscene

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Benny Severide: Hey.

Kelly Severide: Thanks for coming down.

Benny Severide: Thanks for calling. It’s good to see you.

Kelly Severide: You too.

Benny Severide: Could I… Could I get one of those too, please?

Woman 2 (Waiteress): Coming right up.

Benny Severide: Thank you.

Kelly Severide: Well, did you… did you talk to the guys at arson?

Benny Severide: Yeah. Yeah. As soon as Big John was on their

                              radar, Rowe called me.

Kelly Severide: Did you know they had him in custody? They let

                          him walk?

Benny Severide: Yeah. I heard that. The thing is, I’m not so sure

                             he’s the guy. M.O might be similar, but, uh, I

                             could tell him pretty well. I don’t see him having

                              the balls to set a car on fire right outside a

                              station house.

Kelly Severide: You’re wrong. All due respect, I think you’re

                           wrong. The guy, he-he knew me the minute he

                           saw me. I-he knew I was your son.

Benny Severide: Okay. Well, let me get in it with arson. See what I

                             can find out.

Kelly Severide: Yeah.

                                             cutscene

Zoya: It’s good?

Joe Cruz: Perfection.

Zoya: [giggles]

Christopher Herrmann: Hey, you know Cruz is making a move on

                                         your cousin, right?

Otis Zvonecek: Yeah. I would kick him out, but he’s the only

                            regular customer we have.

Gabby Dawson: Well, if it isn’t Mr. Long Island iced tea.

Jay Halstead: Mock all you want, but that drink suits this place.

Gabby Dawson: So you’re saying this place is out-dated, and we

                            only exist to get you drunk quick?

Jay Halstead: [laughs] No. More that, um, you’re fun and sweet

                        and unpretentious.

Gabby Dawson: Nice recovery.

                            [clears throat] There’s a scotch tasting happening

                            Friday night at a place in Wicker Park. Would you

                            want to join me?

Jay Halstead: I’d love to.

                                             cutscene

Gabby Dawson: There was a definite hesitation before he said

                             yes.

Leslie Shay: But point being, he said yes.

Gabby Dawson: You should come to the tasting too. You could

                            bring someone.

Leslie Shay: [sighs] Calm down. I’m-I’m gonna be packing all

                      weekend. I-I can’t.

Gabby Dawson: Boo.

                                    [cell phone vibrates]

Gabby Dawson: Who’s Amy R?

Leslie Shay: Oh, the, um, real estate agent I’m meeting with

                      tomorrow to see apartments, and I think she’s hitting

                      on me, but I can’t tell.

Gabby Dawson: [laughs] It’s kind of amazing how bad you are at

                            sussing out lesbians.

Leslie Shay: [chuckles] I know right?

                                       [siren wails]

Man 4 (Husband): She’s in here! She’s in here!

                                I was in the other room, and I heard a thump.

                                She must have fallen down the stairs.

Leslie Shay: She’s breathing.

Gabby Dawson: Let’s get a C-collar on her and get her on the

                            backboard.

                            Did you…did you move her at all?

Man 4 (Husband): No. She was right there when I found her.

Man 5 (Brother): Oh, my God, Phoebe. What did you do to my

                             sister?

Man 4 (Husband): I didn’t do anything. She fell. Tell him! She fell!

Man 5 (Brother): He beats her up! Did he tell you that? He did this

                             to her.

Leslie Shay: Okay, sir. We gotta…

Gabby Dawson: Hey! Hey!

Man 4 (Husband): [grunts]

Gabby Dawson: (into radio) This is Ambulance 61. We need

                            immediate police assistance.

Man 4 (Husband): [grunts]

Leslie Shay: Hey, buddy? We can’t get your sister to the hospital

                      unless you stop that and move out of the way, all 

                      right?

Gabby Dawson: He’s gonna kill him!

                                    [sirens wailing]

Gabby Dawson: [grunts]

Leslie Shay: Oh, God.

Kevin Atwater (Police Officer): Hey!

Man 5 (Brother): [grunts]

Kevin Atwater (Police Officer): Move it.

Man 5 (Brother): [grunts & whimpers]

                             I told you cops he’d kill her if you didn’t stop

                             him.

                             [cries] Nobody listened!

Gabby Dawson: (into radio) Dispatch, we need a second ambo at

                            4042 Larrabee.

Dispatch: (over radio) Copy that 61. Second ambo en-route.

Man 5 (Brother): Please, don’t let my baby sister die!

Leslie Shay: You think that woman knew her husband was a total

                      scumbag before or after she married him?

Gabby Dawson: He could have pretended to be Prince Charming

                            for years, and she wakes up too late next to a

                            monster under the bridge.

Leslie Shay: Boy.

Jeff Clarke: No, you know you are backing me into a corner here.

                     What happens when that…

Peter Mills: Oh, sorry to interrupt.

Jeff Clarke: Hold on. Hang on a second. I have to go in the other

                    room.

Peter Mills: Hey, you catch any of that? Clarke was lighting

                    somebody up on the phone.

Matt Casey: Personal business, I guess.

Peter Mills: I guess. Something seems off about that guy.

Matt Casey: Something besides him taking your spot on Squad?

Christopher Herrmann: Remember, it’s not a speech. It’s a town

                                         hall, so you have to be comfortable and 

                                         conversational to hold the audience’s

                                         interest, and that’s where these come in.

                                         They’re called key cards. They’re used

                                         by some of the most successful public

                                         speakers in the world.

Mouch: Key cards.

Christopher Herrmann: It’s stuff that we’ve all heard you spout

                                         time and time again, you know, when

                                         you’re getting yourself all worked up.

Mouch: I’d be more comfortable and-and conversational if I was

              sitting.

Christopher Herrmann: Oh, well, then let’s get you a stool.

                                         Hey! The town hall seat of choice.

Mouch: Okay. I can work with this.

Christopher Herrmann: Great. Give it a shot.

Mouch: Three man trucks.

Christopher Herrmann: And? What are your feelings about that?

Mouch: Well… only a pencil-pushing bureaucrat would think a

              three-man truck is a good idea. You know, every study

              they’ve done shows Search and Rescue times go right

              down the toilet whenever you have fewer than five guys

              on a truck. It’s common sense.

              Fitness bonuses, reduced benefits – all stuff I have very

              strong opinions about.

Christopher Herrmann: My brains, your face. We can take this

Matt Casey: Thanks for coming over. I really appreciate the help.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah. No problem. They’re great kids.

Matt Casey: Griffin barely ate.

Gabby Dawson: Well, I don’t blame him. He’s old enough to know

                            when grown-ups are hiding something from him.

                            He’ll be happy to get home.

Matt Casey: Good chance Friday’s my last night with him. You

                      want to come over for dinner? They’re a lot happier

                      when you’re around. We could order Chinese food,

                       get a movie.

Gabby Dawson: I can’t [laughs]

                            I can’t stay for a movie. I have a dinner thing.

Matt Casey: Oh, well… somebody has a hot date.

Gabby Dawson: Mm, no. It’s just a thing.

Matt Casey: Hey.

Gabby Dawson: Antonio.

Antonio Dawson: I just got some bad news. Heather’s friend,

Gabby Dawson: That’s terrible.

Matt Casey: It was an accident.

Heather Darden: [quivering] The lawyer said I’d spend the next

                             five to ten years in here unless I made a plea

                             deal.

Matt Casey: They don’t know that for sure. It was a first offense,

Heather Darden: I took the deal.

Matt Casey: What?

Heather Darden: I can’t risk being away from my boys for their

                             entire childhood.

                             [cries] I can’t. I pled guilty to DUI manslaughter,

                             died, we put you in our wills as the boys’

                             guardian if something happened to us both.

                             [cries] Can you take care of Griffin and Ben

                        reminisce?

Kelly Severide: There’s been a bunch of similar fires the last

                           couple weeks. That’s what brought back the

Kevin Hadley: Yeah. I appreciate that. I do [laughs]

                         But I got to tell you… steady work has been pretty

                         hard to come by since I got pushed out of 51.

Kelly Severide: Look at me. Is that why you’re setting the fires?

Imagine Kelly finally getting the help he needs to save your relationship. ~ Kelly Severide♡

Intro: Andrea Monroe is a member of Firehouse 51, working along side her best friend, Leslie Shay, on Ambo 61. Andrea and the Squad 3 Lieutenant, Kelly Severide, have been seeing each other romantically for a few months now but lately, they found themselves in a bit of a rut. Thanks to Severide’s new found mood swings, they’ve been arguing a lot.

Andrea eventually caught on to the fact that Leslie had been sneaking painkillers off the ambo and into Kelly’s possession, and of course, this pissed her off. She eventually forgave her best friend, but Kelly wasn’t so easy to deal with upon finding out. He refused to admit he had a problem, and whenever Andrea would try to talk to him about it, he’d push her away. 

“You need help.” Andrea said sternly, staring her boyfriend in the eyes, while they stood in the restroom of the firehouse.

“How many times do I have to tell you? I have it under control!” Kelly yelled as he rolled his eyes to the side and pushed the door open, making an abrupt exit. This was a snippet of how a majority of their conversations have gone lately. His harsh tone echoing in the depths of her mind. He wasn’t the Kelly Severide she had fallen in love with. This was another side of him she’d unfortunately grown familiar with.

“SHAY? WHERE ARE YOU!?” Andrea screamed in fear over her radio. “Boden?” She was trapped in the burning building and separated from her partner. “I can’t see anything... Boden!” She stifled through a cough, once more through her radio.

“Severide, I called it.” Boden huffed through the radio. “Location?’

“Close by! I can make it.” Severide lied. He had almost reached the exit of the building when he heard Andrea’s cries and took it upon himself to risk his life to try and save her and Leslie.

“Hang in there, Monroe!” Boden said sternly through the radio; the intense chaos surrounding them both. The building was on fire and the only two left inside were his paramedics, who had been trying to save a man’s life when Boden made the call for his men to exit. He wanted nothing more than to run into the burning building himself to rescue the girls but he had faith in Kelly.

“Monroe, call out!” Severide yelled out anxiously. His voice approaching Andrea’s unknown location.

“Down here!” Andrea called out weakly, from a hole in the ground beneath him. She was surrounded by smoke and fire, making it hard to breathe and see.

“Monroe!” Shay yelled, making her way to the hole in the floor with her equipment in hand.

“Shay!” Severide was relieved upon seeing his best friend was okay and the fact that he had another helping hand. “No one else?”

“He didn’t make it!” She huffed out of breath, referring to the man she had been trying to save, before she had noticed her partner went missing.

“Chief! Shay’s here, and I got eyes on Monroe!” Severide radioed, looking down on her and seeing her about to lose consciousness. “Stay with me, Andrea!”

“Any minute now, Kelly!” Boden said, calling it once more. He wasn’t going to let anyone else in the building but he was waiting anxiously, ready to make a move if need be.

“Shay! Need your help!” Kelly ordered, taking control of the situation and tying a rope around her with no time to lose.

“Got it!” She said, without hesitation, as he gave her his gas mask.

Kelly hulled Shay over the edge and into the pit of smoke that engulfed them.

“Pull me up!” Shay yelled after successfully tying her best friend to her restraints and giving Monroe the mask to help her breathe.

“SHI-!!” Kelly winched in pain as his arm became sore and spazzed on him as he tried to pull them both up. Kelly miss stepped struggled to retain his footing.

“KELLY!” Shay screatched in fear from the sudden drop and abrupt stop a few feet above the fire that was spreading on the ground beneath them. The fear of not making out of this burning building alive, dawned on him as he felt arms grip around him.

“PULL!” A deep, yet comforting voice called out from behind Severide. It was Boden.

“What was that?” Shay asked Kelly after they made it back to the firehouse in one piece.

“Withdrawal...” Kelly mumbled, sitting on the lockerroom bench with his head held low.

“We nearly-“

”You think I don’t know that?!” He interrupted, shooting up into a standing position as he hit the locker in front of him with his fist. He almost got all three of them killed back there. And it would’ve been his fault.

“Kelly...” Shay sighed, taking a seat on the bench and motioning for him to do the same. She watched the tears slide down his cheeks as he sat. 

“I’m so sorry, Les. For everything...” He said, shaking his head as he tried to hold back tears.

“Hey-Hey, look at me!” Shay ordered, getting Kelly to look her in the eyes again. “Me and Andrea, we love you, Kelly. You know that, right?” She asked. He sat quietly, hoping she’d continue. “You’ve been testing our limits lately and I’m not gonna lie to you, you’ve been a complete dick, but we know there’s more to it that we don’t understand. This substance abuse- it’s gotta stop... And more than anything, we want to help and support you through it.”

“I know I need help...” He mumbled, his eyes filling with tears.

“Please, Kelly. Let us help-” She said, tears in her eyes. Kelly leaned in and kissed her forehead.

“I’m gonna talk to Boden and Andrea once she’s cleared.” Kelly got up from the bench and walked towards the door of the lockerroom. “Oh, did you need a ride home after work?”

“I got one, but thanks.” She replied before they exchanged warm smiles with each other.

“Suspension— Understood.” Casey sighed, after Boden gave his orders to suspend Severide’s rank until he was in a position to return to work without endangering his men.

“I’m gonna make things right.” Kelly said, looking at Casey then Boden with hopeful eyes.

“Don’t let me down.” Boden said sternly. “There aren’t second chances here, you hear me, Severide?”

“Loud and clear.”

“How’s Andrea?” Boden asked, sympathy in his voice. “Any word back from Hermann?”

“She’s doing great. They just released her from Chicago Med. Couple fractured ribs from the fall but other than that, she should be good. Hermann is on his way back with her as we speak.”

“Good. You’re welcome to stay awhile after she gets here but you’re off duty.” Boden offered.

“Thanks, Chief.”

“You know it’s not gonna be the same around here without you.” Casey smirked, hand on Severide’s shoulder as they walked down the hall.

“Oh I know. Don’t miss me too much.” Kelly laughed.

“I’m proud, Kelly. Asking for help is the hardest part. Just remember your family here at firehouse 51 has your back every step of the way. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask.”

“I appreciate it, Matt.” Kelly smiled before they entered the garage that held the rigs, to find everyone huddled together. Kelly and Matt made there way through, until they reached the front. Kelly’s eyes grew wide once he saw Andrea.

“Baby! Hey!” He spoke softly before scooping her up in his arms without thinking.

“Hi! Ah, easy,” she chuckled as he put her down gently. 

“Sorry...” He smiled apologetically. She smiled back softly as he noticed the tension that filled the air. “You alright? What’s going on?” He asked, looking around at the other sorrow-filled looks coming from the firefighters.

“I was just telling everyone about my decision to take a break from Ambo 61 for a while.”

“Wait, what?” Casey spoke out what Kelly had been thinking.

“I-I need some time after what happened. I know everyone might not understand it but, it was scary. I’m actually still having difficulty breathing and with a few ribs— They’re allowing me to take some time off...“

“It’s okay, Monroe. You don’t have to explain yourself. We understand.” Hermann spoke up.

“Yeah, you need to recover. Take as long as you need.” Gabby said after gently entwining her arm around Casey’s.

“While everyone’s here, you should know Severide is also relieved of his duty as Squad Lieutenant.” Casey said, a little upset about both his friends not being around for a while.

“What?” Andrea ask concerned, looking solely at Kelly for answers. Everyone else was curious as to why too, hence the chaos that began.

“Can-can we have a minute?” Kelly hushed the squad guys around him that were trying to bombard him with questions. He pulled Andrea into the firehouse and they made their way towards Kelly’s office. He was technically suspended but as of right now, he still considered the office his. She made the effort of following him up until the door of his office. “What’s going on? How long are you planning to be gone for?” He asked, pulling her into the room so he could shut the door.

“I can’t do this anymore, Kelly. I’m sick of fighting with you. I know you don’t want to admit it but you need help. We could’ve died back there!” She cried.

“-I know, baby. I know.” Kelly said, trying to hold her hands. She hesitantly allowed it. “I’m sorry for the hell I put you through these past few months. I want help. I talked to Boden about getting help and that’s why he suspended my rank...”

“You’re getting help?” Andrea asked, eyebrows raised, and tears in her eyes.

“Yeah.” He smiled softly. He was finally sober enough to see the hurt he has caused her and it tore him up inside seeing how much this meant to her. She embraced him in a tight hug, wrapping her arms around his collar. He hugged her back, arms around her waist, pulling her close. The pain from her broken ribs became sharp but she didn’t care. She just wanted to be in his arms again and knowing he was getting help was the best news she’s heard in months.

“I made up my mind.” She said softly, the pain she was physically feeling became evident in her voice.

“Shit-,” Kelly pulled back but wanted her to continue. “About?” Kelly asked confused.

“I’m still taking time off. I need to let my ribs recover and I’m still a bit shaken after what happened in the fire, but if I stay home, I can help you too. I wanna be there for you through this process and just— spend time with you.”

“Are you sure?” He questioned. “You know withdrawals aren’t pretty, and this isn’t going to be easy, so I apologize in advance for anything I say to you...”

“Yes, Kelly... Understood. But I’m still going to be there for you.” 

He half-smiled and gently pulled her in before kissing her forehead and saying, “I’m so lucky to have you.”

CHICAGO FIRE – LET HER GO (S01E23)

[TW: Blood]

Christopher Herrmann: We were scheduled to open our bar after

                                         next shift. And in light of what happened,

                                         we were gonna push it. But… me and

                                         Dawson and Otis… We talked about it,

                                         and instead, we’re gonna make it a

                                         celebration of Hallie’s life. All the

                                         proceeds for tonight will be donated in

                                         her name to Children’s Memorial.

                                         Thanks.

Chief Boden: Not an easy day. Not for any of us. Lieutenant Casey

                       is meeting with detectives from CPD. Arson

                       investigators are at the clinic right now. All we can do

                       for Matt is be there the best we can.

                               I’m so sorry, man.

Matt Casey: Thanks. So, where are we at?

Hank Voight: I just got off the phone…

Matt Casey: I don’t deal with you. I deal with Antonio.

Antonio Dawson: ME report came in. Hallie was struck in the back

                               of the head and killed before the fire started.

Surveillance Tech: (over radio) Units in 21, foot man on Taylor

                                Street. Just confirmed sighting of your silver

                                Magnum. 1400 block of West Taylor.

                                           priors for armed robbery, mostly around

                                           UIC. They’re saying they knew the car

                                           was hot, but they bought it from a black

                                           male for 500 and were gonna use it for a

                                           couple days to do some stickups and

                                            then dump it.

Man 3: [groaning]

Officer (Nicole Sermons): He resisted.

Man 3: She kicked me in the balls.

Antonio Dawson: Cry me a river!

Officer (Jim Barnes): They’re denying any involvement in the clinic.

                                    their records.

Antonio Dawson: Who’s the brains of the outfit?

Officer (Jim Barnes): That guy.

Antonio Dawson: Bring him over here!

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Leslie Shay: Um, on the heels of all this, I was thinking that, you

                     know, God forbids something were to happen to

                     either one of us, that maybe we should have

                     something written up legally in terms of who would

Kelly Severide: Absolutely.

Leslie Shay: And speaking of, we go in tomorrow.

Christopher Herrmann: Who?

Otis Zvonecek: Uh, my cousin. From Russia? Zoya?

                           We talked about this.

Christopher Herrmann: When?

Otis Zvonecek: At the soft opening?

Christopher Herrmann: What? When I got like six beers in me?

Otis Zvonecek: Hey, you signed off, dude.

Christopher Herrmann: Do you know anything about this?

Gabby Dawson: First I’ve heard of it.

Otis Zvonecek: Okay, uh, she’s here on a six month work visa. But

                          apparently, the nanny job was killing her. She’s nice,

                          she’s cute, she’s got restaurant experience, and you

                          agreed to it.

Christopher Herrmann: What kind of restaurant?

Gabby Dawson: Who cares? It’s fine. She’s in. We got funds to

Kelly Severide: How you holdin’ up?

Matt Casey: Best I can.

Chief Boden: There’s no security video. Two of the cameras were

                        fake. The other had no database. Arson is saying it

                        don’t look like a break-in.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Same director of this clinic runs another

Hank Voight: Let’s take a look. Thanks, Chief.

Chief Boden: This is the ignition point.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Patient prescription records.

Matt Casey: Actually… Hallie… right before we went to lunch, she

                     was standing there looking at something and-and she

                     said, “that’s weird.” I just figured it was about billing or

                       the tunnel right now.

Joe Cruz: The water level’s rising.

Kelly Severide: Hey, hey. I got the debris clear, but the suction’s

Antonio Dawson: Do you recognise either one?

Man 4 (Steven Goody): I’ve never seen them before.

Antonio Dawson: Any problems with anyone at the clinic?

Man (Steven Goody): Not with our employees. Everybody works,

                                     They-they wanna give back.

Antonio Dawson: Patients?

Man (Steven Goody): Let’s just say a few bad apples have walked

                                     through that door.

Antonio Dawson: Anyone specifically?

Man (Steven Goody): Who might kill Hallie? Oh, I… I’m… I don’t

                                     know.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Two of the security cameras were fake.

Man (Steven Goody): [sighs] I… I’m just trying to keep the doors

                                     open. You know, it’s a lot of things I can’t

                                     afford that I’d like to.

Detective (Julia Willhite): The fire was started near prescription

                                           records. Our guess, someone tried to

                                           cover up some impropriety. Those

                                           scrips are for a hell of a lot of

                                           Oxycontin.

Man (Steven Goody): For you, maybe. Not for someone in pain.

Antonio Dawson: Any problems with your prescription drugs? Any

                              missing inventory?

Man (Steven Goody): Not that I know of. We have a drug cage, and

                                    there’s never been a problem.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Mr. Goody, we’re gonna need a list of

                                           employees, patients…

Man (Steven Goody): And I’m gonna have to stop you right there.

                                    We are dealing with protected health

                                    information, uh, potential HIPAA violations,

                                    insurance, liabilities, blah, blah, blah. It’s

                                    gonna have to go through our legal

                                    department.

Antonio Dawson: If your clinic was a pill mill and Hallie found out

                              about it and someone killed her to shut her up,

                              now, right now would be the time to tell us.

Man (Steven Goody): [scoffs] It-It’s not a pill mill.

                                     [sighs] Okay, look. Um… there was this guy,

                                     Jubal Bartlett. He was a drug dealer. His

                                     girlfriend came in with a broken jaw. We

                                     reported it to the police. He did not take it

                                     kindly. He made threats.

Gabby Dawson: Who’s that?

Otis Zvonecek: Um, so for the opening and the benefit, I’m pretty

                           sure she said she’s gonna bring a monkey

                           [chuckles]

Christopher Herrmann: A monkey?

Otis Zvonecek: Yep.

Gabby Dawson: Otis.

Otis Zvonecek: Look-look, it-it’s probably some sort of good luck

                           cultural significance. What’s the worst that could

                           happen?

Gabby Dawson: Did you see the lady on Oprah who got her face

                            chewed off by a monkey?

Otis Zvonecek: I did see that. And if it looks like it could take us, I’ll

                          tell her to keep it in the car.

Antonio Dawson: Subpoena will get us employee and patient

Hank Voight: What about the drug dealer the clinic director turned

                       us on to?

Antonio Dawson: Can’t find him.

Hank Voight: Can’t find him?

Antonio Dawson: Ran him through NCIC and the FBI to see if he

                              got pinched anywhere else.

Matt Casey: What’s this drug dealer’s name?

Hank Voight: Yeah, it’s probably best we don’t tell you. You know,

                       we don’t want you… doing something rash.

                       I understand that you and Hallie broke up before her

                       death. Is that right?

Matt Casey: For a few months… yeah.

Hank Voight: She see anyone in that gap?

Matt Casey: No one serious.

Hank Voight: Did she ever mention anyone that she felt

                       uncomfortable around? Was afraid of?

Matt Casey: Yeah. You.

Hank Voight: Lieutenant, I am sympathetic to what you’re going

Matt Casey: I don’t believe that for a second.

Hank Voight: Fine. Don’t.

                       But I have allowed you to be here as a courtesy.

Matt Casey: Courtesy, from you? I don’t need it. I want you to find

Antonio Dawson: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Matt Casey: All right?

Antonio Dawson: You gotta chill out, bro.

Matt Casey: Voight isn’t gonna lift a finger unless someone pays

Kelly Severide: Yeah, we should figure that out.

Leslie Shay: Dawson, right?

Kelly Severide: Yeah.

Leslie Shay: Okay.

Kelly Severide: What is it?

Leslie Shay: I’m just excited.

Kelly Severide: Me too.

Leslie Shay: And part of me feels horrible ‘cause of what Casey’s

                     going through. Here I am with butterflies in my stomach

                     ‘cause I’m getting ready to get pregnant, and… [sighs]

                                        [alarm beeps & buzzes]

(Over PA): Ambulance 61. Gunshot victim.

Officer (Elam): Neighbours reported shots fired.

                         30-year-old female, single gunshot to the stomach.

                         Actually, that’s a guess. It’s hard to tell. There’s a lot

                         of blood.

Officer (Kevin Atwater): She was pumping out pretty good. I

                                         applied pressure, but I don’t know what’s

                                         going on.

Leslie Shay: It’s okay. I got it.

Gabby Dawson: She’s gone. I’m calling it.

Antonio Dawson: That’s what we’re trying to find out.

Gabby Dawson: How’s he been?

Antonio Dawson: Busy, like everybody on this case. I’ll get at you

                              later.

Hank Voight: Boo.

Detective (Julia Willhite): In on it?

Antonio Dawson: Or she found out who was.

Officer (Elam): Neighbour only heard the gunshot. No one on either

                         side saw anyone leave. But we can keep knocking

                         on doors.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Willhite.

Hank Voight: Do that.

Detective (Julia Willhite): Thanks.

                                           The drug dealer, Jubal Bartlett? He’s

                                            been locked up in Virginia Beach for the

                                            past four days on a possession charge.

Hank Voight: I want that clinic director in the hot seat… now.

Antonio Dawson: I told his lawyer I was gonna issue an arrest

                              warrant for obstruction by the end of the week if

                              he didn’t get his client to honour the meet.

Hank Voight: Man, whoever did these two hits will be long gone by

                       the end of the week.

Antonio Dawson: This ain’t the Gang unit, Voight. Sarge. You can’t 

                               do everything with a battering ram.

Hank Voight: The hell I can’t.

Antonio Dawson: Don’t worry. I got him handled.

Kelly Severide: Are you giving birth tomorrow?

                          Listen, we have time to make any fixes we need.

Leslie Shay: We need a locked liquor cabinet. Remind me.

Joe Cruz: [laughs]

Mouch: You gotta go White Sox.

Christopher Herrmann: No, I don’t wanna alienate half the

                     It’s not. And I’m not mad at you. But I do have to say I

                     wish you would’ve told me when you found out.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, I know you do. All I can say is that I-I just felt

                             stuck ‘cause I didn’t wanna hurt you, and… and it

                             wasn’t my business.

Peter Mills: But it was your business. I was your boyfriend.

Gabby Dawson: Was?

Peter Mills: I think I need some time. Look, I respect you too much

                    to have you twisting in the wind, wondering where my

                    head’s at.

Gabby Dawson: Oh man… I mean [clears throat]

                            I knew this was a possibility if I told you, but…

Peter Mills: I still love you. I do. But this whole thing just… I guess

                    it’s just… a little deeper than I thought.

Gabby Dawson: Well you need to figure it out, Pete, one way or

                             another.

Hank Voight: [laughs] Just living the dream.

Man 1 (Sergeant Pruitt): I guess you are.

Hank Voight: Yeah.

Man 1 (Sergeant Pruitt): [chuckles]

Hank Voight: Anything for me, man, in narcotics?

Man 1 (Sergeant Pruitt): [sighs] Nothing yet, man. We set a bunch

                                          of controlled buys ups. But nothing, man.

                                          Not even a vitamin. CIs have nothing

                                          either. Don’t know what to tell you.

Hank Voight: Mm.

Antonio Dawson: Prints came back on that Magnum. Calvin

                               Jackson, goes by CJ. Extensive sheet for

                               dealing, including oxy.

Hank Voight: What’s up, Mo?

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): I knew they couldn’t keep you down.

Hank Voight: Hey, man, not in this lifetime.

                       We got a little problem with your nephew CJ. We got

                       his prints on a car that booked it from that clinic fire a

                       few days back. Was he involved?

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): What if he was?

Hank Voight: I don’t like guessing games.

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): He was buying prescrips from some dude

                                           who was working with a nurse inside and

                                           the guy who ran the clinic. Next thing I

                                           know, CJ comes back all tweaked. He

                                           was at the clinic doing a pickup when the

                                           place caught fire. So he bounced.

Hank Voight: The name of the dude.

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): CJ didn’t say, and I didn’t ask. He did say

                                          that this guy ain’t right in the head. Like,

                                          white-boy-serial-killer-crazy. Second

                                          thing: he knows about me and you.

Hank Voight: And how would my name come up, Mo?

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): CJ told him you gave us protection. So if

                                           you lock him up and he starts runnin’ his

                                           trap, that ain’t good for any of us. You

                                           know what I’m sayin’?

Hank Voight: You get CJ on the phone, and get me the name of that

                        guy.

Man 5 (Maurice Owens): Nah, CJ is gone. I told him to dump his

                                          phone and clear out for a bit. You know

                                          how I work. This is your problem now.

Leslie Shay: So you can start the college fund when, um, the baby’s

                      born. And it’s only like 5 dollars a month. Even if they

                      don’t go to college, they still get the money. So I’m not

                      quite sure why they call it a college fund. It’s… really,

                      it’s just a-a fund for when they turn 18. So… Are you

                      okay?

                                    [laundry machine hums]

Gabby Dawson: Um… [sniffles]

Matt Casey: I was gonna call him, but then it felt like that was the

                     easy way out. So I drove over. And her parents were

                     having a dinner party. Hallie’s sister was there, her

                     kids, her parents’ friends, all of ‘em. It was the hardest

                     thing I’ve ever done in my life.

Kelly Severide: I’m so sorry, Matt.

Matt Casey: Yeah, I appreciate this.

                     [laughs] I needed it [sniffs]

Kelly Severide: You know, when Andy died… without even realising

                           it, I found myself needing to be around people

                           acting normal just to get my frame of reference

                           pull myself out of the hole I was in. So whenever

                           you wanna grab a smoke, or hit golf balls, or

                           whatever…

Chief Boden: Casey. Antonio and Detective Willhite are here for you.

Detective (Julia Willhite): We're waiting on the nurse's cell phone

                                           records, fingerprints from her apartment.

Antonio Dawson: But we're not homicide, so we can be a little 

                              more aggressive.

Matt Casey: Good.

Antonio Dawson: We cooked up something. You go in to the clinic

                              director. He knows you’re Hallie’s boyfriend,

                              right?

Matt Casey: Right.

Antonio Dawson: You tell him you were going through her

                               computer at home. She spelled out the whole 

                               thing. She also mentioned the director was a

                               good guy and probably was forced into this.

Detective (Julia Willhite): And after that you don’t say a word,

                                           ‘cause he’ll either take the bait and

                                           give us a name of his accomplice or

                                           he won’t.

Antonio Dawson: We’ll be outside, so if anything goes sideways,

                               we’re right there.

Chief Boden: He’ll be wearing a wire?

Antonio Dawson: That’s right.

Chief Boden: How do we know this director isn’t the trigger man

                       and he pulls a gun?

Antonio Dawson: We wouldn’t be here if we thought that was a

                              valid scenario. But can we guarantee your

                              safety 100%? No.
