02:04Thank you!
02:05You're for sure gonna ace that firefighter aptitude test.
02:08Why are you leaving me for New York?
02:10Why is summer already home?
02:12Well, I'm not leaving you, Cindy.
02:16Look, I know it's only been one summer,
02:18but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
02:26I'm glad I stole you away from that loser, Gary.
02:29Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
02:33Seriously, wait for me.
02:34I'll come back for you.
02:39I love you, Cindy White.
02:41I love you, T.I. Jackson.
02:44I love you.
02:50Oh.
02:51One more thing?
02:56You ass!
03:03I can't be pregnant.
03:05I have to tell Jackson.
03:14What?
03:16Lorraine.
03:20You shameless tramp.
03:22Are you trying to trap my son with a baby?
03:24No!
03:25No, that's not what that is.
03:26Jackson has a bright future ahead of him,
03:28and I will not let you ruin it.
03:30Get rid of the baby,
03:32and disappear from this life,
03:34or I swear I will destroy everything you have.
03:38But I love him!
03:42We love each other!
03:46If you really love him,
03:48then walk away.
03:50My son deserves better.
03:52All right, this is it.
04:02I'm gonna put a ring on your finger before I leave.
04:05If he knew about the baby, he'd stay.
04:07For me.
04:08For us.
04:09For us.
04:22Whoa!
04:28Uh, hey!
04:30What are you doing in here?
04:31I'm here to break up with you.
04:41Wait, what?
04:43Break up? Why?
04:55What the fuck?
04:57Is this a fucking joke?
04:58I even left you and you're back with this fucking asshole!
05:00Hey, watch your mouth!
05:01Yes.
05:02Gary and I are back together.
05:04I was thinking about it,
05:05and his family money can give me the life I've always dreamed of.
05:10And I don't want to worry about losing my partner in a fire or something.
05:14But you've always been supportive of my dream.
05:19Goodbye, Jackson.
05:20Goodbye, Jackson.
05:41That was hilarious! Did you see his face was priceless?
05:43Gary, go home.
05:46We're not getting back together.
05:48What?
05:50Well, first you begged me to come out here and now you push me away?
05:53You psycho bitch!
05:54I'm sorry, Jackson.
05:55I'm so sorry.
05:56Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again, but reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
06:07What was your reason for staying inside?
06:08Well, I'm just doing my job.
06:10Captain Jackson, I just wanted to say, on behalf of my father's hospital, thank you for saving our lives. You are truly a hero.
06:13It's no problem.
06:14You must be tired. After all that, you could use a little rest. Why don't we go back to my VIP lab?
06:17Let me go back to my VIP lab.
06:20Oh, look.
06:21I'm sorry, Jackson.
06:22I'm not sure you're going to be in here today.
06:23I'm sorry.
06:24I'm sorry.
06:25I'm just kidding.
06:26I'm sorry.
06:27I'm sorry.
06:29I'm sorry.

06:40I was so sorry.
06:41I was so sorry.
06:42Thanks, but no thanks. I actually have to check on a patient. Thank you for your time.
06:49No problem. I'll come with you.
06:54Time to get back to work, Cindy White. The clock's ticking.
06:57Okay, Vanessa.
07:12Jackson?
07:16Excuse me?

07:40And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it. Trust me.

20:42He was just right here.
20:44Yeah, and he almost just ran in the middle of the street.
20:47Nope.
20:48I can't tell him he's a father.
20:49I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
20:51Yeah.
20:57Hey, you never answered my question.
21:00Oh, uh, in case of emergency, just call 911.
21:02Okay.
21:03Cindy, hold on.

21:09Superstar hero?
21:10Well, you know, with your new job, it actually comes with a company in the house.
21:17Oh, okay.
21:18No thanks.

21:19Well, then I guess we can move in.
21:26Great!
21:27Awesome!
21:28Okay, what's, uh, where are you at now?
21:30I can help you move.
21:31That's not necessary.
21:3247 Pie Lane apartment, floor B.
21:34Boom!
21:35See?
21:37That's why you're the man at the house.
21:39You little conspirator.
21:40That's why you're the man at the house.
21:54Whoa!
21:56My new room is so huge.
21:58Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
22:00Absolutely.
22:02You got it?
22:03Okay.
22:04Well, now that we're all alone, it's time I get sweaty.
22:21Excuse me?
22:23Unpacking, Cindy.
22:25Mind another gutter.
22:28That was definitely on purpose.
22:32Okay.

22:44Stop!
22:44Stop!
22:44Stop!
22:47Okay.

22:57Is she finally giving me a shot?
23:04Ow!
23:12Ow!
23:12Ow!
23:15What was that for?
23:17When I was trying to kiss you.
23:19What?
23:20Why?
23:21You said come here!
23:22There's something on your face.
23:24Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
23:30Mm-hmm.
23:32Okay.
23:34Well, I guess I'll get going.
23:37But be sure to say hi to your neighbor.
23:39I heard he's a great, handsome, charming, athletic, fun, smart, intelligent guy.
23:47Wait, you're my neighbor?
23:57I guess, uh...
24:01Huh.
24:03How convenient.
24:06Why the long face, Jackson?
24:22The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
24:25Yeah, except she's got a kid.
24:28Like Gary.
24:30Well, the trust fund catch you left before.
24:33Yeah.
24:34Except she's broke.
24:36Yeah, right.
24:37He's loaded.
24:39I know, it doesn't make any sense.
24:41Whatever.
24:42I don't even care.
24:43You know what?
24:43I'm over her, actually.
24:45I'm Jackson Carter.

26:04Get up.

26:33Vanessa, what's your problem?
26:34Don't yell at me, Jackson.
26:36I was having a little fun.
26:38I've had too much for Cindy.
26:38I'm so sorry.
26:41Here.
26:44Sit.
26:45Nice.
26:49What are you two looking at?
26:55Hey.
26:57Don't worry.
26:58I'm leaving.
26:58I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
27:00No, no.
27:00I'm sorry.
27:01I don't know what that was.
27:02Are you okay?
27:05What do you think?
27:06What do you think?
27:06What do you think?
27:09Sorry.
27:10For that.
27:12And for crashing your little party.
27:14Looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
27:19Wait, hold on.
27:20Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
27:22Do you like me?
27:27Don't flatter yourself.
27:29I'd never like an arrogant ass like you.
27:31Oh.
27:32So you'd like a rich prick like Gary.
27:35Gary, go home.
27:37We're not getting back together.
27:38You psycho bitch.
27:42What are you talking about?
27:43Oh, stop, Cindy.
27:45Don't play dumb.
27:46All right.
27:47You dumped me for him eight years ago and he's known his dad, right?
27:54You have no idea what you're talking about.
27:59Okay, then tell me.
28:00Cindy, please just tell me then.
28:01Get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
28:07I swear I will destroy everything you have.
28:11It's better he thinks Noah is Gary's kid than the truth.
28:15It was over a decade ago.
28:16Well, just let it go, Jackson.
28:25Maybe you want to forget about it because you don't want to come to terms that you traded love, real love, for money.
28:32You know, we could have had something together.
28:37We could have had a future together.
28:37Jackson, please.
28:41You know what?
28:42Fine.
28:42Here.
28:43I don't want you to catch a cold.
28:45What's that?
28:56Yeah, the ring.
28:59I've had it since the beginning.
29:03Maybe this is stupid, but it's like my good luck charm.
29:08Every time I have it with me, I feel like I can always make it through.
29:13Jackson, stop.
29:15Okay.
29:16Okay?
29:18Thank you for saving me.
29:21For the job, for the house, the rescue, but let's just leave this, us, in the past.
29:28We'll call Excel.
29:30It's best that we keep it professional.
29:37That's if you want.
29:41Thanks.
29:42Can I help you guys?
29:46Wow, look, it's our new paramedic.
30:05Can I help you guys?
30:06Yeah, I actually hurt myself on the last job.
30:09I was wondering if you could take a look at it.
30:11Oh, you pulled your groin?
30:14Every night before bed.
30:17We were actually hoping that you might help us out with that.
30:20Yeah, or is that just exclusively for Captain Carter?
30:24Do you guys have any real injury?
30:27Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry.
30:29You broke my heart?
30:32Wait, wait, you broke my heart too.
30:35All right, leave my station before I give you something to cry about.
30:38Ooh.
30:40Look, I don't think you know what you're dealing with, little girl.
30:43What did I do?
30:50What did I do?
30:55Jackson, we were just looking for you right now.
30:57We couldn't find you, so we came over here.
31:01Yo, we were just joking.
31:05We were just hazing the new guy, okay?
31:07It was all in good fun.
31:09What do you think, Cindy?
31:10Is it all in good fun?
31:11Well, you heard her.
31:15Hey, hey, hey, hey, please, please, please, please, flip, flip.
31:17We're sorry, boss, all right?
31:19We're sorry, Cindy.
31:22Let go.
31:27Hey, you okay?
31:28I'm sorry about that.
31:30Yeah, I'm fine.
31:32Thanks to you.
31:33Just doing my job.
31:34Well, you're a man making it impossible for me to do mine, so I'm going to quit.
31:40What?
31:44What?
31:44No, no, no, you can't quit.
31:46You just started.
31:47If I wanted to be mocked every day, then I would just beg Vanessa for my drawback.
31:52This will never happen again.
31:53It's a one-time occurrence, I promise.
31:55If it ever happens again...
31:56That was a pretty gnarly punch.
32:04Let me see.
32:06It's a pretty gnarly swelling.
32:09It was nothing.
32:11Yeah.
32:12Whatever.
32:15Look at you saving me for once.
32:19I'm just doing my job.
32:20You know, you're different, uh, than when we were younger.
32:26You're stronger and tougher.
32:31Well, being a single mother will do that to anyone.
32:36You should try it.
32:38You've been alone this whole time?
32:45Just make sure that your hand stays dry for about three hours.
32:49I've got to go get organized.
32:50I guess I'm staying.
32:59So Gary just abandoned her?
33:02I need to know more.
33:04If Cindy won't tell me, I'll go to Gary.
33:12I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
33:17Man, it's been too long.
33:19How you been?
33:19What brings you in today?
33:21You have no idea what you're talking about.
33:26Just got some questions.
33:29About Cindy.
33:29Oh, that brought me.
33:32Oh, she's got issues, man.
33:34Yeah.
33:34She begged me to come back to her.
33:37And then, after she dumped you, she told me that she didn't even want to be with me.
33:44What about Noah?
33:45Who the fuck is Noah?
33:48Come on, man.
33:48It's been years.
33:49Let's talk about something that matters.
33:51Forget that psycho bitch.
33:52She's like, I got something real for you.
33:54Oh, fuck.
33:55It's shelter again.
34:00Yo, you're loco, man.
34:02You two deserve each other.
34:05If Gary's not the father, then who is?
34:07What the hell's going on, Cindy?
34:17Mom, this is disgusting.
34:19Noah!
34:20Hey, Cindy.
34:21I need to...
34:22Save us!
34:23What's up, little man?
34:26Mom can't cook to save her life.
34:28Excuse me!
34:29Yeah, he's not lying.
34:32Last time I'd do anything nice for you, people.
34:36Okay, tell me.
34:37How do you like your burger cooked?
34:38Medium rare.
34:40No way.
34:42Me too.
34:43You know what that makes us?
34:45What?
34:46Taste buds.
34:48Oh, my gosh.
34:49How do you guys share with all those similarities you two are not related?
34:52You all right?
35:01Mm-hmm.
35:01Yeah.
35:02Wrong pipe.
35:05Listen, can you watch Noah for a second while we...
35:09We...
35:10Clean up the plates?
35:11There's only two plates, so...
35:12Amanda, you can't make enough plates.
35:15Okay.
35:16I'll help you clean up the plates.
35:18I, uh...
35:22Actually, hey, I'm gonna go talk to your mom real quick, but you stay here.
35:26Okay?
35:26Okay.
35:27Yeah, hold down the fort for me.
35:28All right, I'll be right back.
35:29Okay.
35:29Okay.
35:29Okay.
35:30Okay.
35:30Okay.

35:38Okay.
35:39Okay.
35:40Okay.
35:41Okay.
35:42Okay.
35:43What are you doing?
35:44It's already as difficult as it is.
35:47Jackson isn't stupid.
35:49He's gonna find out eventually that he's not the father, and then what are you gonna do
35:53about it?
35:53Hey, what are you guys talking about?
35:56What did you hear?
35:58Nothing.
36:00You mind if I talk to Cindy for a second, O.M.?
36:02Yeah, I have to use the bathroom anyway.
36:08Uh, you and Noah are getting along great.
36:11Oh, yeah.
36:12He's a great kid.
36:13Yeah.
36:14You know, I'd love to help out more, you know, if you'd let me.
36:17Take him to school, pick him up from soccer practice, whatever you need.
36:24Ice cream!
36:26You want to babysit?
36:28You're a fire captain, right?
36:30That's a little below your pay grade.
36:32No, no, no.
36:33I just want to be part of your guys' lives.
36:36You know, and...
36:40Noah?
36:41Where's Noah?
36:42Shit.
36:43He lost a lot of blood.
36:44Is anyone a negative for a transfusion?
36:45I am, but I can't.
36:46I'm his mother.
36:47Anyone else?
36:48Well, I'm a universal donor.
36:49Perfect.
36:50Come with me.
36:51No, no, no, no.
36:52There has to be someone else.
36:53Cindy, stop.
36:54There's no time.
36:55No, it can't be you!
36:56Why?
36:57Why won't you let me help him?
36:58No!
36:59Okay, I don't need your help.
37:00Leave.
37:01I'm sorry.

52:57You're the best kid a dad could ask for.
53:01I'll go get your medicine.
53:03He's really stepping up.
53:08That's amazing.
53:10I can't believe I've missed so much of his life already.
53:14I know.
53:16Cindy.
53:22Mom?
53:24That must be your son.
53:26He's so beautiful.
53:28What are you doing here?
53:30How do you know about Cindy's son?
53:32Because I paid her to leave you.
53:36So she wouldn't trap you with a baby.
53:41I told her I'd ruin her life if she didn't leave you.
53:45What?
53:46Is that what you're doing here now?
53:48To threaten her again?
53:49No.
53:50Is that what...
53:51Mom?
53:52Get out of here.
53:53No.
53:54Mom?
53:55Get the fuck out of here!
53:56Go!
53:57I'm sorry.
53:58Son.
53:59I'm so sorry.
54:00Cindy.
54:01Why...
54:02Why didn't you just tell me?
54:04I thought you said no more lies.
54:06I'm a mother now.
54:10And even though I would never make the choices that you did, I can understand them.
54:23And I forgive you.
54:25You're a strong woman, Cindy.
54:28And an excellent mother.
54:30Being good, Jim.
54:31I'm a mother.
54:32I love you.
54:33I'll give you two some space.
54:35Jack, I'm sorry.
54:36No.
54:37No.
54:38No.
54:39No.
54:40No, no.
54:41No.
54:42You're a little, no, that's all.
54:43No.
54:44I'm sorry for everything.
54:45When Cindy broke up with you, I saw how heartbroken you were and...
54:48I immediately knew I'd made a terrible mistake.
54:52But I knew you'd never stop fighting for her.
54:55I truly want nothing but the best for both of you.
55:04Dad, who's the crying lady?
55:07It's your grandma.
55:09Why don't you give her a hug?
55:12Hi, Grandma.
55:14I'm Noah.
55:15Hi, Noah.
55:18Don't worry.
55:19It's okay.
55:22Yes.
55:23It is now.
55:39Wow.
55:42Where is the uniform?
55:44I got it.
55:45You got the ring?
55:47I got it.
55:48All right.
55:49Speaking of, how's Cindy getting here?
55:50Only the best is bring it home.
55:52Mom, can you please go to Dad's photo shoot?
55:54Please, please, please, please.
55:57Fine.
55:59It's your access to the phone.
56:09What is going on?
56:11Surprise!
56:11What is all of this?
56:21I want to make up for all the lost time.
56:24Give Noah a home and a wedding.
56:28We're both through.
56:31Cindy White, will you marry me?
56:35Yes!
56:38Yes.
56:39A million times, yes.
56:40She's told everything that I've done.
56:44Woo-hoo!
56:45Woo-hoo!
56:46Woo-hoo!
56:46Woo-hoo!
56:48Woo-hoo!
56:48Woo-hoo!
56:49The promises that you'll serve me health
56:54And I want you
56:56How only I owe it?
56:58I want you
57:00Woo-hoo!
57:01Woo-hoo!
