- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Hey, Chief. You wanted to see me?
- Wallace Boden: Come on in, Pelham. Close the door. How do you like working at 51?
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Oh, you've got a great team. Very glad to be subbing in for however long you have me.
- Wallace Boden: You've impressed me enough that I've thought about bringing you on full time. So I did a little research.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Found out about my suspension.
- Wallace Boden: Not just any suspension. Longest suspension ever issued by the CFD.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Hmm. I'm not sure if I knew that. Maybe they should've given me some kind of plaque.
- Wallace Boden: Wanna tell me what happened?
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: You got the file right there.
- Wallace Boden: It's a little light on details.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: I'd love to fill the blanks for you, Chief, 'cause I have great respect for you. But I can't.
- Wallace Boden: I can't bring you on full-time without some kind of an explanation.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: I understand.
- Wallace Boden: And you have nothing to say on the subject?
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Not on that subject, no. I'll say this, Chief: I think I fit in at 51. I'm a great firefighter and a commanding leader. I am loyal, tough, honest, and I'll lay it all on the line for the men and women I work with, which is what I see here. Look, I've been a floater at a lot of houses, and I haven't fought to be part of any of them. But I will fight my ass off and do whatever it takes to be a part of this one.
- Wallace Boden: Whatever it takes except tell me what happened at Whiskey Point.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: That's right.
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Kylie, Chief Boden in his office?
- Kylie Estevez: No, he stepped away for a while.
- Blake Gallo: Wait. Are you serious? You're gonna report me to Boden? I got us in that house with no damage whatsoever. What's your problem?
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: What you did was very a direct order. You went freelancing, Gallo. You could've fallen trying to get in that window or found a vicious dog waiting for you inside or an armed occupant who thought you were breaking in!
- Blake Gallo: I can handle myself, Lieutenant!
- Lieutenant Jason Pelham: Yeah?
- Blake Gallo: Yeah. Not like you'll ever see it, treating me like a little kid, right? "Stay on my hip. Wait by the truck." I'M NOT A CANDIDATE ANYMORE! I'VE BEEN RIDING 81 SINCE WAY BEFORE YOU GOT HERE, AND I'LL RIDE IT WAY AFTER YOU'RE GONE!
- Joe Cruz: Hey, do you know how much preschools cost? Or, at least, the one that Chloe likes?
- Sylvie Brett: Uh, no.
- Joe Cruz: I mean, how can somebody call themselves "The Happy Village" when they're just taking your money?
