Hey, those are those guys that just passed us.
They're sending a rescue team, let's go.
No, hey, Cap, we're close to Harrison Ridge. We gotta go.
We could be there faster than anyone.
I'm not leaving you guys alone. You got that?
Let's go!
Hey, give me that saw. Give me the saw.
You go, and I send your ass right back to prison.
I'm not kidding.
There'll be no forgiveness,
and no chance for parole.
Sir, rule number six from the 10s and 18s says
"keep calm, think clearly, act decisively."
I'm going up there.
FREDDY: Hey.
Bode, come on, man.
Let's go!

VINCE: Gabriela.
What the hell is going on here?
We're helping.
No, you're not.
We're not gonna leave.
So we can stand around and be in your way,
or we can help.
You don't know what you're doing.
After my parents got divorced,
on weekends with my dad,
he made me get my ass out of bed
and clear debris and help him cut line.
I know how to stay safe.
I'll follow your orders, except for leaving.
I won't follow that one. Okay, listen.
Gabriela, you... Jake and Eve
are stuck on Harrison Ridge.
I'm terrified.
I need to do something, please.
VINCE: I'm worried about 'em, too.
But we'll get 'em back safe.
All right, guys, we got a lot of line to cut
and not much time to do it, let's go.
(grunting, coughing)
The fire's gonna be on us any minute.
I'm working as fast as I can.
Hey, hey! Get back, stand back.
Thank God. Stand back. Get back, get back.
(chain saw starts)
Help me move it off him. (grunting)
(crying out)
(cries out)
EVE: We gotta move. Come on. Come on!
(panting): Come on. (Jake groaning)
Hold!
There's no way out. We're surrounded.
We have to deploy our fire shelters.
I took off my pack.
I don't have my fire shelter.
(coughing)
Jake! Eve!
Can you come over here?
(coughing)
Jake, can you get in here?
I can't. There's too much fire.
(groaning)
MANNY: Come on! Faster!
Man, oh, man, that's a fire.
(all grunting, straining)
Setting the backburn with the drip torch.
We're starting a smaller fire
so when the approaching fire hits it,
there'll be no fuel to burn.
Flares! Hold the work.
Hold up! Hold the work!
Ready.
Fire. Fire.
What now?
Now we wait.
(coughing)
Jake!
(groans) You guys okay?
(grunts)
Damn!
That was freaking insane.
Ah, you, uh...
(groans)
Man, you-you really saved my ass.
I owe you one.
I'm Jake.
I know.
Bode? Bode?
Hey! Hey, stop! Hey, stop! Stop it!
You're crazy!
That's what you told Riley, isn't it, huh?
After you dumped her. What?
Oh, he hasn't told you? Leave it alone, Bode.
No. You were hooking up with Riley?
Why are we even talking about this, huh?
You know why. I went to his place
to pick her up, and she was crying.
Wait. The night of the crash?
She tried to get out of the car
to go back and talk to him, and I reached over
to pull her back in, and I lost control.
It's my fault that she died, but it's on you
that she died with a broken heart.
You know, I met your girlfriend, by the way.
She know what kind of a guy you are?
EVE: Hey! I said hey, stop!
Stop!
Man, what are you even doing here?
I came to save your life.
I wasn't about to let you die a hero.
(helicopter blades whirring)
(indistinct chatter)
I'll keep the cons on patrol tonight.
But the winds are dying,
and the fire's 60% contained.
Hopefully tomorrow we just mop up.
You hear from Jake yet?
No, but they got him.
You know what I want?
A dozer? Could it be a dozer?
I think, after today, I can pull some strings.
That would be great. Thank you.
But right now, I just want to take a little drive around town,
look at everything we saved.
A victory lap.
More like a reminder of everything that matters.
(Sharon chuckles)
I get why you do this.
You shouldn't be here.
I'm waiting to hear from Jake. A crew's got him.
Go home. I'll call you if I hear anything, all right?
I'm gonna stay.
Gabriela, let the professionals do their...
No, I mean I'm gonna stay here in town.
I'm not going to Florida. What?
Today I was a part of something,
and it felt amazing.
You cut line for one day,
and all of a sudden you want to throw your whole career away?
Is this about Jake?
No, this is about me.
Mija, you don't belong here.
I put you in diving when you were a little girl
because I liked the idea of you being surrounded by water.
Water, mija.
Fire burns everything up, but water saves it.
It's your ticket out.
I don't need saving, Dad.
And I don't want out. (phone ringing)
(gasps) Jake!
Hey, baby. Are you okay?

WOMAN: Hey! Thank you.
They, uh, they thanking the firefighters?
They're thanking you.
You're a firefighter now.
(cheering continues)
Ugh.
How are you?
Uh, I'm fine.
I heard one of the guys
from the con crew helped you out,
so I wanted to thank him. Do you know...
Where's Vince? Is he here with you?
He's on his way. Why?
("Ride the Lightning" by Warren Zeiders playing)
(sighs)
Sharon, he's back.
There's a bus outside waiting to take you back to Lompoc.
Let's go. Manny, give us the room.
MANNY: I'm sorry, ma'am, I can't do that.
This is my inmate. I technically
can't leave him... Give us the room.
Is everything okay?
I'll take full responsibility for him,
just... please?
Yes, ma'am.
