Fire Country
Fridays 9:00 PM on CBSFire Country Quotes
Bode: You've been lying to us. Are you okay to even be out here?
Vince: Sit down. Please. Sit down. Alright? I wanted to be out here. With you and your, and your mom. Fighting fires together. And if I told your mom, there'd be reviews and forced medical leave. And they could -- they'd take me out of here right now. I wouldn't get this time with you. I'm fine. Look, the doctor cleared me. And I'm - I'm not going to endanger my crew. You know that.
Bode: You gotta tell Mom.
Vince: Yeah. Of course, I will. Soon as we're all home and safe.
Sharon: So this is why you couldn't look me in the eye.
Vince: Well, you know I suck at keeping secrets from you. I couldn't stomach the thought of being the problem. And I got scared. I can't have this job taken away from me. So, I convinced myself that I'd be protecting everybody by being here. But I ended up putting my own son in harm's way.
Bode: I'm fine. It's okay.
Vince: It's not okay. I'm gonna go to the hospital. And then I'll go home. And then I'm going to recommend you run 42. 'Cause I don't trust anybody more than I trust you.
Sharon: You just want me somewhere where I can't yell at you.
Vince: Yeah, that too.
Eve: You heard from the board yet?
Manny: Still here, ain't I?
Eve: Well, don't convict yourself before they do man.
Manny: I'm not. I stand by what I did.
Eve: Really? You stand by starting a fire at 42, man? Do you hear yourself?
Manny: Look, I regret the fire. And I regret that it may have cost me my job. But I don't regret punching Luke. He deserved it. And besides, what I did got Three Rock here, so get off my back.
Eve: And you really believe that?
Manny: I don't need a lecture, Eve. You're not my Captain.
Eve: Okay. I'm not his Captain.
Gabriela: Your mom was right. It's a bubble out here. Being in the now. Where we are. I like that.
Bode: No future, no consequences.
Eve: Alright. Let's restock supplies, head back to Three Rock, and grab three to four months of sleep.
Bode: Back to Three Rock. I like the way that sounds.
Vince: I just got the most surreal phone call from CDCR. Reese, remember the division chief up at Lazarus, apparently he was so impressed with you fishing me out of that fire that he submitted you for an extraordinary conduct credit.
Eve: Wait. Does he qualify?
Bode: When, when do I find out?
Vince: That's what I just found out. You got the credit. And they're taking twelve months off your sentence.
Sharon: But he only had 11 months left. What does that mean?
Vince: That means there's some paperwork and stuff. But, uh, you're free.
Sharon: Oh my God.
Vince: You're coming home.
Vince: Doctor cleared me to go on this fire.
Gabriela: So, you told Sharon and Bode?
Vince: Not yet. That fire line out there, it takes every bit of concentration and focus that one can have. And I don't need Sharon worrying about something that's not in front of her face. Okay? That's not happening.
Gabriela: Play it safe. Okay, you're a chief. So, command from the sidelines.
Vince: Oh. You giving the orders now?
Gabriela: Sharon. Sharon.
Vince: Hey. No, no, no. Okay. Fine. Deal.
Sharon: How are you two doing?
Cole: I just wish we knew that there'd be a Three Rock to come back to.
Bode: Honestly, I dig it. I don't know. Things are a little looser here. And I get to sleep outside instead of the barracks. It's almost like we're just firefighters.
Sharon: I love a campaign fire. It's like being in a bubble. When you put your camp next to armageddon, all the BS and reality just floats away and it gets real simple. We have one goal. Stop that fire.
Bode: Mom's worried about you.
Vince: Well, she wouldn't be Mom if she didn't.
Bode: You good?
Vince: Yeah. Why?
Bode: Well, we're here as a family. Fighting a fire together. I thought you'd be a little happier. But something's bothering you.
Vince: Well, if anything's bothering me, it's that we should've been doing this for years now. Lost a lot of time with you.
Bode: Now's our chance to get some back.
Vince: Then what? You get done knocking down this fire. They close Three Rock. Send you away.
Bode: It's only a year, Dad.
Vince: Who knows where I'll be in a year?
Bode: What does that mean?
Vince: It means there's no guaranteed tomorrow. For anybody. Especially on this job.
Eve: Listen, I may or may not be your Captain, but I'm going to talk - when was the last time you hit the shower trailer?
Manny: I worked a 16 all day. Just leave me alone.
Eve: I know. You were working while everyone else was off. That's what guilty people do. You know, you're putting up this front like justice was served. But you know you're in the wrong. And you're ashamed. Because Three Rock, they don't just look up to you, Manny. You are the blueprint. Not just on how to be a firefighter. But how to turn your life around. Become a good person. What you're showing them right now, is that if you ever make a mistake, just go ahead and hang that up. Is that what you want to show them? Hmm? Is that what you want to show Bode? Or your daughter? Or me? Take a shower, Manny.
Jake: Gabs and I just weren't meant to be.
Roberta: What happened?
Jake: She fell in love with another guy.
Roberta: Of course. Diego. He seems lovely, though. He loves her.
Jake: No. No, no. I'm sorry. Gabs, she didn't break up with me for Diego. She broke up with me for Bode.
Roberta: Who's Bode?
Jake: Um, ah, that's Bode. Blonde. Behind the table.
Roberta: Oh
Jake: In orange.
Roberta: Like mother, like daughter.
Bode: Nothing's over til it's over. Governor, I'm not a hero. I'm in orange for a reason. Without Three Rock, I'd still just be drifting through life. But with Three Rock, I've been given a chance to live it.
Cole: My boy's a poet.
Bode: When I first got sent to Three Rock, it was the last place I wanted to be. Now, I can't imagine being anywhere else. Three Rock, it's given us a purpose. It's given us a chance to be a part of something. To be firefighters.
Inmate firefighters: That's right.
Bode: We need Three Rock. And you need us.
Vince: Bode's right. A stop order tonight would allow all these men to leave right now. You'd be sending valuable resources. Pretty strong call to make.
Governor: Get me corrections on the phone. Right now.
