The first 194 lines.
I had an investigator on the scene within an hour.
He didn't clock anything suspicious.
I'm telling you, something is off.
Look at this.
Pan with the rags,
and then the rags are what really got the fire going.
You may have missed your calling being a detective.
Ryan Pace, by the way. Social services.
Isaac's gonna need some support
settling into his new digs. Think you wanna come with me to visit?
Yeah. Yeah, I'd really like that.
Good morning, Slamigan fans.
Oh, what's this?
This is a shirt supporting the best damn tool in the CFD.
Invented by our very own Joe Cruz.
These are pretty sharp.
Oh, Firefighting Expo is this week.
- - Yup, that's right.
And the Slamigan's got its own booth
with a demo and everything.
My buddy Nick Porter's gonna run it.
You guys, can you feel the excitement?
Oh, hey, Brett, heads up!
Oh, uh, thank you.
Um, hey, so I just got a message from Ryan,
the social worker who helped us with
the county youth detention facility.
Oh yeah, Isaac's advocate.
Yeah, um, he says that Isaac is being released early.
Ryan's been visiting a lot,
and apparently he was a model inmate.
I was gonna visit next week, but he's already gonna be home.
- Well, that's really good to hear. - Yeah.
Ryan's the guy you're dating, right?
He seems really invested,
which makes a difference in those situations.
Yeah, I... I wasn't dating Ryan.
We had a drink once at Molly's to talk about Isaac.
Hmm, either way, it's nice to know there's someone
in the system advocating for kids like that.
Um, huh.
Why was I so defensive about Ryan?
That's super weird.
Don't ask me, partner.
So I bought a scratch and win ticket.
One of those ones where you match the exploding bombs
to the targets?
- Okay. - I lost.
Sorry to hear that.
I never win those things.
I mean, not even where the prize
is another scratch off ticket.
Severide, Van Meter called.
There's a new lieutenant at OFI
he's sending over to talk to you today.
Uh, about the arson case?
I assume so. He didn't give any details.
Engine 51, Truck 81, Squad 3,
Ambulance 61, Battalion 25.
- Hostage situation... - Go.
Casey, 51, hold tight.
Copy that, Chief.
You gotta leave your rigs here.
Deputy Garwood doesn't want to spook the guy.
Garwood's in charge? Where is he?
Up there at Command Center.
Thanks.
Garwood.
- Hey, Chief. - Hey.
- Welcome to Crazytown. - Yeah, so what's the story?
Oh, units responded to a domestic dispute.
Male suspect went loco.
He's all jacked up on something.
- He took a hostage? - I'll do it!
I will do it, I swear!
I will kill her!
Chicago Fire S08E07 "Welcome to Crazytown"
Synced and corrected by Gianluca Belfiglio
- Chief? - Yeah.
What are we looking at?
Domestic dispute turned into a standoff.
One male suspect took his ex-girlfriend hostage.
They're negotiating.
You're not taking me!
We're gonna be here a while.
Just tell us where you need us.
Stand by just in case this nutbag tries
to burn down the building,
and have your medics take a look at the victim's kids.
Kids?
This mom, she's a smart one.
She shooed 'em out of the apartment
when things went south.
They're in the back of the squad car.
- Casey. - Yeah.
- And Herrmann. - Yeah.
Pull 51 closer just in case you got a lead out.
- All right, copy that. - Wait, hold off on, uh,
moving the rig around. This guy's real jumpy.
Okay, belay that, Hermann.
Okay.
Who's this?
Grace and Gabriel, this is Sylvie and Emily.
What about our Mom?
We can't see what's happening from back here.
Police are looking out for them.
And we're gonna look out for you guys.
Are you hurt anywhere?
We're fine. Our mom's the one in trouble.
Luis has a gun.
Is Luis your mom's boyfriend or...
Ex-boyfriend.
She kicked him out because he has problems,
but he won't leave her alone,
and now he's high and he has a gun.
I wanna go back there.
Hey, Grace, um,
I'm really worried about your little brother.
Can you help me keep him calm?
How?
Well, I bet he looks up to you.
You think you could an example for him?
Show him how strong a big sister can be?
Uh-huh.
Don't worry, Gabe. It's gonna be okay.
I can give you a rough idea
of the interior layout of this unit.
Yeah, that'd be great. Better than going in blind.
Chief, can we get some ladders up here just in case?
- Yeah, do it. - Okay.
Mouch, Gallo, as quiet as you can,
I need a 20-footer and a 12-foot
up to the front of the building, stand by.
Come on now, Luis. You know I can't do that.
He wants us to fall all the way back
to the end of the block.
Everyone.
Well, tell him to send out the woman,
we'll give him all the space he needs.
Hmm.
Well, if I see one cop face out there,
I... I will shoot her, I swear to God!
Uh, Luis, I'm working on it.
You've got to give me more time.
Yeah, the hell I do!
Just get them all out of here!
Luis, you still with me?
The window.
Watch out!
Looks like he's done talking.
Luis, come back and talk.
Luis!
Please, don't!
- Shut up! - Please!
He only has one endgame,
and it's not happily ever after.
Help!
Go and get her, whatever it takes.
- Go. - Go, go, go!
Garwood, is squad gonna use any pyrotechnics up there?
Explosives, flash bang grenades?
Flash bangs, tear gas, and nothing's off the table.
Then we need our fire engine hooked up
to that hydrant right now.
Absolutely, do it.
Doherty, pull that rig forward.
We're gonna tie it to this hydrant.
Go with the tear gas.
Hey, can we get the squad car moved?
I'm a little busy. Or didn't you notice?
We got a hostage situation.
Uh, yeah, no kidding, but I'm under orders to get
my engine connected to that hydrant.
Yeah, that sounds like your problem, not mine.
Oh! The hell are you doing, huh?
That's CPD property and you don't look like a cop to me!
All right, get out of the way, sir.
Get your hands off me! Get your hands off me!
You okay, Lieutenant?
Yeah, I'm good, buddy.
All right, come on. Let's get ready to work, guys.
We're in place. Say the word.
Tear gas is working. Move in.
I don't think that's tear gas.
Fall back! Fall back!
What the hell is happening?
Suspect fired at us through the door.
He is not incapacitated.
That's not tear gas. That's smoke!
If he smothered the shell with blankets or towels,
they could've ignited.
All right, we've got a fire in there.
Hermann, get that water canon ready.
No, please! Don't!
