9-1-1: Lone Star

I don't want any surprises out there today.

"9-1-1 Lone Star," all new Mondays.

And check out our other Fox shows "9-1-1," "Prodigal Son,"

and "The Resident," only on Fox.

I mean, he was trying to cheat off of me in Ethics class.

Okay, it's like, "You bring a whole new meaning

to the term 'oxymoron.'"

You're hilarious, Elise.

Hey. Are you thirsty?

I could use a beer.

Get me one too, yeah?

Okay, yeah.

So.

You're really feeling Elise?

Come on.

Velma from Scooby-Doo, bro?

Elise is ais a four.

She's not even an Austin four.

She's a Waco four.

Now, her friend Janessa over there?

She's a Dallas nine.

I mean, not even I can go straight at a nine.

So I gotta let the nine get a little thirsty

while I lavish the butter face four with attention.

Give Janessa an hour and two hard seltzers,

and she'll be begging to take

whatever I feel like giving her.

It's called the triangle offense.

Well, it certainly is offensive.

Um, Spence, you wanna go play beer pong, man?

Yeah, definitely. Spa is hot as balls anyway.

- Yup. - Have fun, ladies.

It is a little warm in here.

Never going home, we stay forever in the zone.

Hey, check it out.

We stay forever in the zone.

What is that?

Okay. Roasting now. Roasting.

It's gonna be a night to remember.

- Let's get out. - What is that?

- Chad. - Whoa.

- No! Don't! - Wait, wait, wait! Stop! Stop!

Let's make tonight unforgettable.

Everybody get away from the pool!

We gotta get him out of there! He's gonna cook!

Chad, swim to me! Swim to me!

Help!

Give me your hand. Give me your hand.

Come on! We'll help you!

- Pull! Pull! - Come on!

And the second opinion confirms it.

You are officially in remission.

- Congratulations, Dad. - Yay!

All right!

Cap, Cap, Cap!

- Tumor slayer! - Way to go, Cap.

About time we had some good news around here.

Whole lotta folks been praying for you, Captain.

Well, I appreciate that.

Um, but this is the ugliest cake

I've ever seen. What...

Why why does it look like this?

- It's your tumor. - It's my tumor?

It's your tumor a year ago.

When it was bad.

I gave your scans to the bakery.

I objected.

Okay, I'm

I'm both repulsed... and moved.

Um, and, I'm at a loss.

- A 73% loss. - Whoo!

Um...

Now you are just one surgery away

from that cancer being completely gone.

- Let's go. - Yes!

Captain. This is Tommy.

It's cool that your mom came down here for this.

It's cool you did.

Thanks for being here, babe.

Hey, free tumor cake.

So how are things at home now that she decided to stay?

Suspiciously calm and reasonable,

but we'll see how long that lasts.

Why would you say that?

Because I've met them.

I think they're in their honeymoon period.

Those can last a while.

Speaking of parents,

when am I gonna meet yours?

You want some more punch?

Um...

Tell me, friend,

what are you doing all the way back here?

Just taking it all in.

It's hard being back, isn't it?

Honestly, Gracie, it's been hell.

No, ma'am.

Now, you tell me who's been giving you a hard time.

I'm gonna have Judd come in here

and beat 'em up, okay?

Unless it is Judd. Then you leave it to me.

I got you.

Judd's been my champion.

And honestly, I couldn't ask for a nicer group of folk.

No, it's just, the last time I had on this uniform,

my girls didn't exist.

It was easy to completely be present in my job.

And now...

You're thinking about the babies.

I'm feeling guilty...

Guilty for not being there,

guilty for maybe not really being here.

Judd says you've been doing amazing.

Yeah, well, maybe you should ask my crew that.

I'm not sure they know

what to make of me yet.

Listen, just gotta give 'em

a little time to get to know you.

That's it.

You are impossible not to love, Tommy Vega.

Impossible.

I'm glad you think so.

Knock, knock.

Come in.

You haven't touched your tumor cake.

You don't like it?

It's growing on me.

I see what you did there.

You skipped out on your own party.

I didn't skip out.

You skipped out, and now you are hiding out.

I'm not hiding. My name is on the door.

How could that be hiding?

I just wanted some time to

savor the moment.

Wow.

Well, your version of savoring

looks an awful lot like brooding.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I-I got great news.

Everyone I love on the planet is here

to support me and celebrate the news.

I'm good.

Owen, you know what happens over time

if you keep things bottled up.

Well, if it's like wine, it gets better.

Nothing's bottled up.

Don't forget, golfers,

score a hole in one on the 18th hole

and win a Paradise sundae!

Honey, you seem tense.

I-I'm not tense.

Why would you say I'm tense?

You've repositioned your ball five times

like it's the 18th hole of the Masters,

and you've had a knot in your jaw

since you got that call from work.

- Did they say anything? - Well, today isn't about work.

It's about fun! Family fun.

So let's have some fun.

He didn't get it.

Damn you, stupid devil!

It's not fair!

Can't even win my son a sundae!

Is Daddy crying?

No, son. No, no, no.

I-I’m of course Daddy's not crying.

Baby, why don't you just go putt-putt over here?

Okay? For Mommy.

Victor, what's wrong?

What's wrong is, I have commercial real estate

gathering dust all over town because of stupid COVID.

Okay.

What's wrong is, we're officially broke.

What?

That call I got, it was from the bank,

refusing to give me a bridge loan.

We're gonna lose the house.

How long?

How long have you known that we were in trouble?

Five months.

I'm sorry.

No.

I'm the one who's sorry.

That you've had to keep this

all bottled up inside you for so long.

You don't hate me?

Course not.

We're gonna get through this

with or without a house.

Wow.

I didn't realize just how much tension

I was carrying around till I let it out.

You can't hold all that in.

It's gonna come out one way or another.

- What is that? - What is that?

I don't know.

I hope I didn't break the thing.

Hey, what is that?

My God. Rory, Rory!
