01:31Come on!
01:32Come on, Jackson!
01:33Let's go!
01:34Let's go!
01:35What?
01:37You got me!

01:47New record!
02:01You did amazing!
02:03Thank you!
02:04You're for sure going to ace that firefighter aptitude test.
02:07Why are you leaving me for New York?
02:10Why is summer already over?
02:12Well, I'm not leaving you, Cindy.
02:15Look, I know it's only been one summer,
02:18but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
02:23I'm glad I stole you away from that loser, Gary.
02:29Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
02:32Seriously.
02:33Wait for me.
02:34I'll come back for you.
02:39I love you, Cindy White.
02:42I love you, T.I. Jackson.
02:50Oh.
02:51One more thing?
02:56You ass!
02:59I can't be pregnant.
03:04I have to tell Jackson.
03:06Lorraine.
03:08You shamelessly tramp.
03:09Are 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.
03:30We'll get rid of the baby,
03:32and disappear from this lifer.
03:34I swear I will destroy everything you have.
03:39But I love him!
03:42We love each other!
03:44If you really love him, then walk away.
03:49My son deserves better.
03:51My son deserves better.
04:00All right.
04:01This is it.
04:02I'm gonna put a ring on your finger before I leave.
04:04If he knew about the baby, he'd stay.
04:07For me.
04:08For us.
04:09For us.
04:22Whoa!
04:28Uh, hey!
04:29What are you doing in here?
04:34I'm here to break up with you.
04:35Wait, what?
04:42Break up?
04:43Why?
04:56What the fuck?
04:57Is this a fucking joke?
04:58Why you even left you in your 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, and...
05:07His 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.
05:15But you've always been supportive of my dream.
05:20Goodbye, Jackson.
05:34That was hilarious.
05:35Did you see his face was priceless?
05:36Gary.
05:37Go home.
05:38We're not getting back together.
05:39What?
05:40Well, first you begged me to come out here, and now you push me away?
05:41You psycho bitch!
05:42You only made one thing.
05:43I'm sorry.
05:44Jackson.
05:45I'm so sorry.
05:46Captain Jackson.
05:47You have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
05:49But reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
05:50You have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
05:51But reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
05:55What was your reason for staying inside?
05:56Well, I was just doing my job.
05:57What?
05:58I'm so sorry.
05:59I'm sorry.
06:00I'm sorry.
06:02I'm sorry, Jackson.
06:03I'm so sorry.
06:04I'm sorry.
06:05I'm sorry.
06:09Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
06:14But reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
06:18What was your reason for staying inside?
06:22Well, I was just doing my job.
06:24Captain Jackson. I just wanted to say on behalf of my father's hospital, thank you for saving our lives. You are truly a hero.
06:36It's no problem.
06:37You must be tired after all that. You could use a little rest. Why don't we go back to my VIP lounge and have a lot of fun.
06:45Thanks, 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. Box ticking.
06:58Okay, Vanessa.
07:15Jackson?
07:16Excuse me?
07:18That is Captain Jackson Carter to you.
07:22He's L.A.'s hottest, bravest, most badass firefighter.
07:28And he just saved your worthless life.
07:30Vanessa, please. That's not necessary.
07:33Where's his thank you?
07:36You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
07:40And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it. Trust me.
07:45I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
07:48Don't talk her back to me, Cindy.
07:52I'm your boss. My dad owns this hospital.
07:55And by the where?
07:57I am so sick of your temper.
08:01You know what?
08:03You're fired.
08:08You know what?
08:09You're fired.
08:11Whoa.
08:12What?
08:13Come on, Vanessa. I need this job.
08:15Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you talked back to the boss's daughter.
08:20Come on. Let's go somewhere I'm going right now.
08:24You know, now that I think about it, there is a new opening for a paramedic in my department.
08:29I would be so honored.
08:31Someone just became available.
08:34Hey, Cindy.
08:36How would you like to join my team?
08:38What?
08:40A paramedic job?
08:41What's the catch, Jackson?
08:43What game is this?
08:44Thank you so much, but I can't accept.
08:52Sorry.
08:53I would be so...
08:55Mommy!
08:56Mommy!
08:57Hi, Cindy.
08:58Sorry.
08:59You just ran past me.
09:00That's okay.
09:03Great.
09:04Just what I need.
09:05More nobodies.
09:06All right.
09:07I'm one more friend.
09:08Thank you for saving my mom.
09:09Oh.
09:10Just doing my job.
09:16You have a son?
09:17Uh, yeah.
09:19This is...
09:20Noah.
09:21Hi, my name is Noah.
09:22Nice to meet you.
09:24Hey.
09:25Nice to meet you.
09:27I'm...
09:28Jackson.
09:30Wait.
09:31You're my dad!
09:33Noah!
09:34You didn't tell him.
09:37That's not funny.
09:38I'm so sorry.
09:41Um...
09:42We have to go get ice cream!
09:43Yeah!
09:44Right?
09:45Let's go!
09:46I love ice cream!
09:51Noah, why did you call Jackson Dad?
09:53He looks like my dad for my dream.
10:01So after she broke up with me, she had a kid with Gary?
10:08I'm...
10:09You're the only one who was.
10:10In the end of the year.
10:17Whew!
10:18So your love life is a disaster...
10:24Tell me something I don't know...
10:25But...
10:26But, but, but, but, but.
10:28Your soulmate's here!
10:29And true love follows!
10:31Is there anything in here about money?
10:32Love's not paying the rent, honey...
10:35Love's not paying the rent, honey.
10:37Jackson's job would.
10:40That's not gonna happen.
10:42Okay, well, argue with the cards, honey.
10:44You're fated to take this gig.
10:46Marry the love of your life and live happily ever after.
10:50Okay, see, this is why I don't think I'm terrible.
10:54My life has never been this neat.
10:56Okay, well, good thing you don't have to believe in it for it to be true.
11:00Oh, Jackson loves you, and I don't need the cards to know that.
11:06Okay, we're done.
11:08Conversation.
11:10Run all you want, bank comes for us all.
11:13Good night.
11:14Mark my words, honey, you two are not over.
11:17What do you want, Vanessa?
11:33Just making sure you're not stealing anything.
11:36Strip searcher.
11:38What?
11:39No, are you kidding?
11:40What is this?
11:42Are we in high school?
11:44Wait, what?
11:45Good, strip her top.
11:47She might be hiding medicine under it.
11:48Vanessa!
11:49What is this?
11:51Fuck.
11:53Let's go.
11:54No.
11:55No, wait!
11:56No!
11:56Enjoy the chill time, bitch.
11:59Come on!
12:01Fuck!
12:02Vanessa!
12:03Vanessa!
12:04Fuck.
12:08Thanks for implementing the new safety measures, Captain Carter.
12:11For the last time, call me Jackson.
12:14I'm just doing my job.
12:15You're too modest, Jackson.
12:19Help!
12:21Somebody help, please!
12:24Cindy!
12:26Hello?
12:27Cindy!
12:28Jackson!
12:29Hey!
12:30Hey, can you help me?
12:33All right, stand back.
12:34Okay.
12:34Wait, turn around!
12:43Okay.
12:44Yeah.
12:46Jackson.
12:46I'm not looking.
12:47Wait, the door!
12:48I'm not looking?
12:49Oh, shit!
12:51Fuck.
12:55Wait, the door!
12:56I'm not looking?
12:56Oh, shit!
12:59Fuck.
12:59Great.
13:00Now we're both stuck in here.
13:10Damn.
13:11Is he sexier than I remember?
13:15You know it's rude to stare.
13:17Jerk.
13:18So, when'd you have a kid?
13:23When did you come back, Captain Jackson Carter?
13:27Why are you here?
13:29What do you want from me?
13:30Well, I always said I'd come back.
13:32That was years ago.
13:35We were kids.
13:36Doesn't make it not true.
13:41What about you?
13:43No ring.
13:44No Gary inside.
13:45I guess that happily ever after didn't work out.
13:47Hey.
13:48You just got fired.
13:49Just take my job.
13:50Okay?
13:50It's a good offer.
13:51No.
13:52I don't need your offer.
13:54I don't need you to rescue me.
13:56Again.
13:56What are you so afraid of?
13:59Think about your son.
14:01He's got a point.
14:02I do need a job.
14:03And money.
14:07Fine.
14:09I'll take your offer.
14:10And I'll be the best paramedic there is on the team.
14:13It'll be your ass getting saved by mine.
14:15I saw her sneak into storage.
14:18She's up to something.
14:23I saw her sneak into the storage room.
14:25She's up to something.
14:26Probably stealing meds or case violence or worse.
14:30I'm starting to think she's the one who started to fire.
14:33You're finished, thief.
14:38What?
14:39What is it?
14:42Jackson.
14:45But I only locked her in here.
14:47Oh.
14:48Thanks for the confession.
14:50You bitch.
14:51Enough.
14:52Stop embarrassing yourself, Vanessa.
14:53I am so sorry for my daughter's behavior.
14:57Miss White, Mr. Carter.
14:59You're apologizing to her?
15:00Shut up!
15:01Miss Paul.
15:09Well?
15:12Thank you for saving me again.
15:15Well, I wouldn't call getting us both trapped in that room a bunch of a rescue.
15:19But I'll tell you again.
15:22Excited to see you at work?
15:24Come on.
15:31Hello?
15:32Hello, Miss White.
15:33It's Principal Coleman.
15:35Your son got into a fight.
15:36You need to come.
15:37Now.
15:38What?
15:43Noah!
15:43Are you hurt?
15:44Let me see.
15:45Is he hurt?
15:47He's the one who attacked my son.
15:50Oh.
15:50I'm sorry.
15:51If you're sending the doctor, I can cover it.
15:55I don't need your money.
15:56I have money.
15:58What I want is this animal, what you call a son, expelled.
16:05What?
16:07You're not going to do that, right?
16:09Well, per school policy, serious violence does warrant expulsion.
16:14But he started it!
16:15He called me a bastard.
16:17He said he called my mom a slut.
16:23My mom says that kids like you don't know your dad's because your mom's are total sluts.
16:29Shut up!
16:30Hey!
16:30Don't!
16:31You're legal, you're never in!
16:36Shut up!
16:37Hey!
16:38Don't!
16:38You're legal, you're never in!
16:45Jackson!
16:46You okay, kidda?
16:47Let go of me!
16:48How dare you!
16:49Mr. Carter, hero of the city!
16:52You know the White family?
16:55I do.
16:57President Collins, I didn't know you allowed such bad decorum.
17:03Excuse me, you little son of a...
17:05Enough!
17:05Mr. Carter, I apologize for this incident.
17:10And you, you, you apologize to Noah.
17:14No way!
17:15This bastard attacked my son!
17:18This man has saved our school and countless others, and it's a price we could never hope
17:22to repay.
17:22Actually, there is a way to pay it back.
17:26Really?
17:28Well, just tell me how.
17:32Expel that boy.
17:39Expel that boy.
17:40All right.
17:42Son, you are...
17:43Wait, wait, wait, wait.
17:44No.
17:45We don't want to expel him.
17:46We don't?
17:47We don't?
17:47We don't.
17:48No, we don't.
17:49No.
17:50Both boys were in the wrong.
17:52Noah, why is it?
17:54You said extremely rude things to Noah and I, and you need to apologize.
17:59And Noah, you can't hit someone no matter what they say.
18:03Okay?
18:03You need to say sorry.
18:04My son will not be apologizing, Bert.
18:07I just saved your son from expulsion.
18:12Son?
18:13So you're sorry.
18:15What?
18:17I'm sorry.
18:19What was that?
18:20I'm sorry.
18:22Good.
18:23Noah?
18:25I'm sorry, I guess.
18:28I think you owe Miss White an apology, too.
18:33I am sorry, Miss White.
18:37Come on.
18:44See?
18:45Your mom's a smart cookie.
18:47I shouldn't have tried to expel that boy the same way you shouldn't have tried to fight him.
18:51Next time, just come to us or the principal.
18:54Okay?
18:55Okay.
18:55Okay.
18:57Nice.
19:00Why does Captain Carter know the whites?
19:02Is...
19:03Is he Noah's dad?
19:07Is he Noah's dad?
19:10Look.
19:11Uh, Principal Kahn, this isn't what it looks like.
19:13Oh, no, no, no, do not worry, Miss White.
19:17Mom's the worst.
19:18You won't get a peep out of me.
19:19But there's nothing to...
19:20Oh, no, no, do not fret.
19:21We're going to take very special care of Noah, both for you and for...
19:25Just for you.
19:37Just for you.
19:39So, what were you and Principal Collins whispering about?
19:44No, nothing.
19:47It seemed like something.
19:50No, nothing.
19:51For you to know about.
19:53Ah, excellent qualifier.
19:56Hey, you want a race?
19:57Yes.
19:58Yeah?
19:58All right, go.
19:59Come on.
20:00Come on, I'm beating you.
20:01Come on, hurry up.
20:02Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
20:14Hi.
20:15Hey.
20:16Can we take a selfie?
20:17I love your fire safety TikTok videos.
20:19And I adore your calendars.
20:22No, those are bad.
20:23Yeah, that's good.
20:24That's good.
20:27Nice.
20:27Jackson, could I have your phone number?
20:31If I'm ever feeling lightheaded in the bath, could I call you for a personal rescue?
20:36Ah, she's bad.
20:37Hey!
20:38Before you play with your little fan club, can you make sure my kid's okay?
20:43He's just right here.
20:44Dad, he almost just ran in the middle of the street.
20:47Nope.
20:48I can't tell him he's a phone number.
20:49I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
20:51Here.
20:57Hey, you never answered my question.
21:00Oh, in case of emergency, just call 911.
21:03Okay.
21:03Cindy, hold on.
21:04Wait up.
21:05Sorry about that.
21:06That never happens.
21:08What now, superstar hero?
21:10Well, you know, with your new job, it actually comes with a company house.
21:17I don't care.
21:18No thanks.
21:19It's free.
21:22Well, then I guess we can move in.
21:26Great!
21:28Awesome!
21:28Okay.
21:29What's, uh, where are you at now?
21:30I can help you move.
21:31That's not necessary.
21:3247 Pie Lane apartment, 4B.
21:34Boom!
21:36See?
21:37That's why you're the man of the house.
21:39You little conspirator.
21:54Whoa!
21:55My new room is so huge.
21:58Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
22:00Absolutely.
22:02You got it?
22:10Well, now that we're all alone...
22:13It's time we get sweaty.
22:22Excuse me.
22:22Hmm?
22:23Unpacking, Cindy.
22:25Find out of the car.
22:28That was definitely on purpose.
22:32Oh, hey.
22:36Let me...
22:36I got it.
22:38I got it.
22:43Time, time, time!
22:44Time!
22:44Time!
22:44Time!
22:45Time!
22:45Time!
22:45I got it.
22:45I got it.
22:46What?
22:56Come here.
22:57Is she finally giving me a shot?
23:12Ow!
23:13What was that for?
23:17I was trying to kiss you.
23:19What?
23:20Why?
23:21You said come here.
23:22There's something on your face.
23:27Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
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,
23:42athletic, fun, smart, intelligent guy.
23:56Wait, you're my neighbor?
24:00I guess so.
24:03Huh.
24:05How convenient.
24:06Why the long face, Jackson?
24:22The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
24:26Yeah, except she's got a kid.
24:28Like Gary.
24:29Well, the trustee won't 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.
24:47All right?
24:47Town hero.
24:48I can get whoever I want.
24:50Right.
24:51Keep telling yourself that.
24:52Hello, boys.
24:57Party is right.
24:59Vanessa, what are you doing here?
25:01You're acting all mopey, so I thought some company would do you some good.
25:05Okay.
25:06Welcome in.
25:08Hello, hello.
25:10It's just...
25:12Well, because I'm sure that I'm much more fun than whoever she is in there.
25:15Mm-hmm.
25:17Let's get this party started.
25:18Cindy.
25:26Cindy!
25:29Okay.
25:30Okay.
25:31Cindy!
25:32Hi!
25:34Would you like to come in?
25:36Um, I just wanted to say thank you.
25:39And I have.
25:40Bye!
25:42Would you like to come in?
25:44That's really sweet of you.
25:46We'd love to have you.
25:48I'd play a game.
25:50It'd be fun.
26:00See?
26:01It's simple.
26:02Even Cindy's brat could do it.
26:05Get up.
26:05Let's play.
26:09Hey, do you actually mind switching with Cindy?
26:11Cindy.
26:11Cindy.
26:11Cindy.
26:12Cindy.
26:12Cindy.

26:26Cindy.
26:27Cindy.
26:28Oh.
26:28What the fuck?
26:29Oops.
26:30I guess I've had a little too much fun.
26:33Vanessa, what's your problem?
26:34Don't yell at me, Jackson.
26:35I was having a little fun.
26:36Is it too much for Cindy?
26:38I'm so sorry.
26:39I'm so sorry.
26:40Here.
26:41This is it.
26:42Nice.
26:43What are you two looking at?
26:46Hey.
26:47Don't worry.
26:48I'm leaving.
26:49I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
26:50No, no, I'm sorry.
26:51I don't know what that was.
26:52Are you okay?
26:53What do you think?
26:54Sorry.
26:55For that.
26:56And for crashing your little party.
26:58It looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
27:00Wait, hold on.
27:01Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
27:02Do you like me?
27:03Don't flatter yourself.
27:04I'd never like an arrogant asshole.
27:05I'm sorry.
27:06I'm sorry.
27:07I'm sorry.
27:08I'm sorry.
27:09I'm sorry.
27:10I'm sorry.
27:11I'm sorry.
27:12I'm sorry.
27:13I'm sorry.
27:14I don't know what that was.
27:15Are you okay?
27:16What do you think?
27:17Sorry.
27:18For that.
27:19And for crashing your little party.
27:21It looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
27:24Wait, hold on.
27:25Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
27:26Do you like me?
27:28Don'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.
27:34Gary, go home.
27:37We're not getting back together.
27:38You psycho bitch.
27:40What are you talking about?
27:43Oh, stop.
27:44See?
27:45Don't play dumb.
27:46Right?
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.
27:57Okay, then tell me.
28:00Cindy, please just tell me then.
28:04Get 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.
28:17Just 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.
28:34You know, we could have had something together. We could have a future together.
28:37Jackson, please.
28:38You know what? Fine. Here. I don't want you to catch a cold.
28:51What's that?
28:52Yeah.
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.
29:12Jackson, stop.
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.
29:32That's what you want.
29:38That's what you want.
29:41Thanks.
30:00Wow.
30:02It's our new paramedic.
30:05Can I help you guys?
30:06Yeah, I actually, um, hurt myself on the last job.
30:09I was wondering if you could take a look at it.
30:11Oh.
30:13You pulled your groin?
30:15Every night before bed.
30:17We were actually hoping that you might help us out with that.
30:20Yeah.
30:21Or is that just exclusively for Captain Carter?
30:24Do you guys have any real injury?
30:27Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry.
30:30You broke my heart?
30:32Wait, wait.
30:33You broke my heart, too.
30:35All right.
30:36Leave my station before I give you something to cry about.
30:38Ooh.
30:40Look, I don't think you know who you're dealing with, little girl.
30:44What'd I do?
30:50What'd I do?
30:51What'd I do?
30:52Have you seen?
30:55Hey, Jackson!
30:56We were just looking for you right now.
30:57We couldn't find you, so we came over here.
30:59over here.
31:01Yo, we were just joking.
31:05We were just hazing the new guy,
31:07okay? It was all in good fun.
31:09What do you think, Cindy? Is it all in good
31:11fun?
31:13Huh? You heard her.
31:15Hey, hey, hey, please, please, please, slip, slip.
31:17We're sorry, boss.
31:19We're sorry, Cindy.
31:21Let go.
31:27Hey, you okay? I'm sorry about that.
31:29Yeah, I'm fine.
31:31Thanks to you.
31:33Just doing my job.
31:35Well, you're a man making it impossible
31:37for me to do mine, so I'm gonna quit.
31:39What?
31:43What? No, no, no, you can't quit.
31:45You just started.
31:47If I wanted to be mocked every day,
31:49then I would just beg Vanessa for my job back.
31:51Hey, this will never happen again.
31:53It's a one-time occurrence, I promise.
31:55If it ever happens again...
32:01That was a pretty gnarly punch.
32:03Oh, I see.
32:05It's a pretty gnarly swelling.
32:09There's nothing.
32:11Yeah, I know.
32:15Look at you saving me for once.
32:17Just doing my job.
32:23You know, you're different, huh?
32:25Then when we were younger, you're stronger and tougher.
32:31Well, being a single mother will do that to anyone.
32:35You should try it.
32:37You've been alone this whole time?
32:39Just make sure that your hand stays dry.
32:43For about three hours.
32:45I gotta go get organized.
32:47I guess I'm staying.
32:49So Gary just abandoned her?
32:51I need to know more.
32:53If Cindy won't tell me, I'll go to Gary.
32:55I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
32:59Man, it's been too long.
33:01How you been? What brings you in today?
33:03You have no idea what you're talking about.
33:05Just got some questions.
33:07About Cindy.
33:09Oh, that brought me.
33:11Oh, she's got it.
33:12Oh, she's got it.
33:13I need to know more.
33:14Cindy won't tell me.
33:15I'll go to Gary.
33:16I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
33:18Man, it's been too long.
33:19How you been?
33:20What brings you in today?
33:21You have no idea what you're talking about.
33:24Just got some questions.
33:27About Cindy.
33:29Oh, that brought me.
33:31Oh, she's got issues, man.
33:33Yeah, she begged me to come back to her.
33:36And then after she dumped you, she told me that she didn't even want to be with me.
33:43What about Noah?
33:45Who the fuck is Noah?
33:47Come on, man.
33:48It's been years.
33:49Let's talk about something that matters.
33:51Forget that psycho bitch.
33:52Like, I got something real for you.
33:54Ow!
33:55Fuck!
33:56It's Salter again!
34:00Yo, you're loco, man.
34:02You two deserve each other.
34:04If Gary's not the father, then who is?
34:08What the hell's going on, Cindy?
34:17Mom, this is disgusting.
34:19Noah!
34:20Hey, Cindy.
34:21I need to...
34:22Save us!
34:24What's up, little man?
34:25Mom get cooked to save her life.
34:27Oh!
34:28Excuse me!
34:29Yeah, he's not lying.
34:31Fine.
34:33Last 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!
34:41Me too!
34:43You know what that makes us?
34:44What?
34:45Taste buds.
34:46Oh my gosh.
34:47Are you guys sure with all those similarities you two are not related?
34:51Good?
34:52You all right?
34:53Mm-hmm.
34:54Yeah.
34:55I'm on pipe.
34:56Listen, can you watch Noah for a second while we clean up the place?
34:59There's only two plates, so I can end up currently cleaning up the place.
35:00Okay?
35:01I'll help you clean up the place.
35:02I, uh...
35:03Actually, hey, I'm gonna go talk to your mom real quick, but you stay here.
35:04Okay?
35:05Okay.
35:06Okay.
35:07Okay.
35:08Okay, hold down the floor for me.
35:09All right, I'll be right back.
35:10I'll be right back.
35:11Okay.
35:12How are you doing?
35:13I, uh, I'm gonna talk to your mom real quick but you stay here.
35:22Okay?
35:23Okay.
35:24Hold down the floor for me.
35:25All right?
35:26I'll be right back.
35:30Well, I love you.
35:31Yeah.
35:35Thanks.
35:37That's all right.
35:41What are you doing?
35:44It's already as difficult as it is.
35:47Jackson isn't stupid.
35:48He's going to find out eventually that he's not the father,
35:51and then what are you going to do about it?
35:52Hey, what you guys talking about?
35:55What did you hear?
35:57Nothing.
36:00You mind if I have to send you for a second, Owen?
36:03Yeah, I have to use the bathroom anyway.
36:05Uh, you and Owen are getting along great.
36:11Oh, yeah, he's a great kid.
36:13You know, I'd love to help out more, if you'd let me.
36:16Take him to school, pick him up from soccer practice,
36:19whatever 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.
36:33You know, I just want to be part of your guys' lives.
36:40You know, and...
36:42Noah!
36:43Where's Noah?
36:44Shit!
36:55He lost a lot of blood.
36:56Is anyone a negative for transfusion?
36:58I am, but I can't.
37:00I'm his mother.
37:01Anyone else?
37:02I'm a universal donor.
37:03Perfect, come with me.
37:04No, no, no, no, there has to be someone else.
37:06Cindy, stop.
37:06There's no time.
37:07No, it can't be you.
37:08Why?
37:09Why won't you let me help him?
37:11No!
37:11Okay, I don't need your help.
37:13Leave.
37:20I'm sorry.
37:20Cindy, I know you're scared, but the longer you keep this a secret, the more pain it's
37:30going to cause for the both of you.
37:32I just don't know what to do right now.
37:34I know.
37:34I know.
37:35I know you're scared.
37:37Goodness.
37:37We've located the ulnar plasma.
37:39I just need your signature, okay?
37:40Right here.
37:48You know, it's just...
37:49Every time I feel like we're finally getting closer, she shuts me out.
37:52I don't get it.
37:54I mean, she's been alone for so long, and you guys didn't really end up well last time.
37:58What if she's just scared?
37:59What?
38:00And I'm not?
38:01Well, she's the one that dumped me.
38:02Yeah, I know.
38:03I know.
38:04How about she wouldn't even let me donate blood to know?
38:07I mean, luckily we found a plasma donor, but what if we didn't?
38:10Why won't she let me help?
38:11Wait.
38:12They didn't let you donate?
38:14No!
38:15That's crazy, right?
38:16Wait, didn't you say Gary wasn't the father?
38:19Yeah, and?
38:21Direct relatives can't give blood to other direct relatives, so...
38:26Yo, what if you're Noah's dad?
38:35You're my dad!
38:36Piss buds.
38:37Who the fuck is Noah?
38:49Amanda's right, I can't keep hiding this.
38:55Jackson deserves to know, and Noah does too.
39:02How's he doing?
39:03Good.
39:06Hey, we need to talk.
39:10I talked to Gary.
39:12What?
39:14You had no right to do that.
39:15Well, you wouldn't tell me anything, I needed answers.
39:19Cindy, is Noah my son?
39:29I mean, that's the only thing I can think of, why you wouldn't let me donate blood.
39:34I mean, when I first met him, we had an instant connection.
39:38And every time I've seen him since, I've realized that he eats like me,
39:43he talks like me, how he even looks like me.
39:46Why won't you tell me, is Noah my son?
39:52Cindy, just tell me, is Noah my son?
39:54Yes!
39:58Noah is your son.
39:59So if I open up my heart this way, and that's why, maybe I'm ready to say you.
40:09Why wouldn't you just say that?
40:11How could you hide this from me for eight years?
40:14What could I have possibly done to you that was so bad?
40:17Did you know?
40:19When you broke up with me?
40:20Well, get rid of the baby, and disappear from his life, I swear, I will destroy everything you have.
40:29But I love him!
40:33We love each other!
40:34If you really love him, then walk away.
40:40Jackson, I was so young, and I was scared, and you had all these big dreams that you had to go do.
40:55What, the stupid firefighter program?
40:57You thought I cared more about that than him, than you?
41:00No, no, I, I knew that you didn't.
41:05That's why I left, because I knew that you wouldn't.
41:09But, Jackson, you didn't fight me on it.
41:14You never, you never asked me to stay.
41:17Wait, because you said you didn't love me anymore!
41:20What? I never stopped loving you!
41:24Jackson, for every second of every day for the last eight years,
41:29I've been waiting for you, hoping that you'd call, or you'd text, something, anything!
41:41I dreamt about telling you about Noah.
41:44I wasn't strong enough.
41:47I just, I wish I had been brave, and I didn't let your mother control him.
41:59It looks like the cat's finally out the bag.
42:13Um, it's just...
42:15You were just, uh...
42:16I thought I said no more lies.
42:20There's no more.
42:21Hey, you know what?
42:27Noah's birthday's tomorrow.
42:30You know what he's always wanted?
42:34Go ahead.
42:38Dad?
42:39Bingo.
42:43I know just the right thing.
42:44So, what kind of cake would the birthday be like?
43:01Honestly, I have no idea.
43:04New to this whole dad thing, huh?
43:05Yeah, I just found out 20 minutes ago.
43:07He doesn't even know.
43:08Oh, wow.
43:10Okay, well, let's just start with his name then.
43:12Noah, I do know that.
43:14Gotcha.
43:16Thanks.
43:22Noah is Jackson's son?
43:27I am going to mess you up, Cindy White.
43:32Wait, sir!
43:34I need an address!
43:37I'll tell you.
43:40Don't worry, I'm a friend of the family.
43:42I'm a friend of mine.
43:49Cake for Jackson?
43:50That's me.
43:51Thank you, sir.
43:52No problem.
43:58Are you nervous?
44:00Is it that obvious?
44:02Don't be.
44:03You'll be great.
44:04Don't worry.
44:05Once you're out of here, I'm going to throw you the biggest party ever.
44:07Who says we have to wait?
44:11Surprise!
44:12Happy birthday!
44:13You remembered!
44:14How could I forget the coolest kid in town's birthday?
44:17There you go.
44:19Can I open it, Mom?
44:21Yes.
44:21Uh, I-I don't know what happened to me.
44:28I'm so sorry.
44:30It must have been some kind of mistake.
44:31Don't worry about that.
44:32Why does everyone call me a bastard?
44:32Why don't I have a dad?
44:33I don't know what happened to me.
44:33I'm so sorry.
44:34It must have been some kind of mistake.
44:35Don't worry about that.
44:36Why does everyone call me a bastard?
44:37Why don't I have a dad?
44:38No, you do have a dad.
44:39I do?
44:40I'm your father.
44:41Is that true?
44:42To the best that I could have possibly imagined.
45:14Where have you been all my life?
45:15Did you not want to be my dad?
45:17Uh, of course I wanted to be your dad.
45:21I was-I was just scared.
45:25Why?
45:27You know, every day I put my life out on the line, uh, fighting fires.
45:32I was just afraid that maybe one day I wouldn't be able to come home.
45:35But, uh, you know, thanks to your mom, I'm finally brave enough to be here for you.
45:43Can you forgive me?
45:46Of course.
45:47Dad.
45:48Yeah?
45:49Are you excited?
45:50Yeah.
45:51Huh?
45:52Noah!
45:53You're alive!
45:54Yes!
45:55And I have a dad!
45:56Whoa!
45:57Is that him?
45:58That's me.
45:59You're the firefighter from the news!
46:01Hey!
46:02Nice to meet you.
46:03I'm Noah's dad.
46:04Can we take a seat?
46:05Can we take a seat?
46:06Can we take a seat?
46:07Can we take a seat?
46:08Can we take a seat?
46:09Can we take a seat?
46:10Can we take a seat?
46:11Can we take a seat?

46:20Beautiful.
46:21Thank you!
46:22Mm-hmm.
46:23Your dad is so cool.
46:24I know.
46:25We knew some firefighting stories he told me.
46:26He's totally showing.
46:27Yeah?
46:28What a great kid.
46:29Oh, who's it?
46:30Harry, at the station.
46:31Let me take this.
46:32Hey!
46:33You guys ready?
46:34Okay, great.
46:35I'll be there as soon as I can.
46:36I thought we were done with the lawyers.
46:40Jackson has a son?
46:41What a great kid.
46:42Yeah?
46:43What a great kid.
46:44Oh, who's it?
46:45Harry, at the station.
46:46Let me take this.
46:47Hey!
46:48You guys ready?
46:49Okay, great.
46:50I'll be there as soon as I can.
46:51I thought we were done with the lawyers?
46:54Yes.
47:01Jackson has a son?
47:02Out of all people in Cindy.
47:05I know.
47:06But I talked about a lesson.
47:08Broke bastard on his birthday cake.
47:12Genius.
47:14Show me that.
47:15That's a personal order?
47:17Did I ask?
47:18It's stunning.
47:27Oh, it's engraved.
47:28Says it's for...
47:33Cindy White?
47:35Whose order is this?
47:36Jackson Carter.
47:38The Jackson Carter.
47:40The Fire Captain?
47:44She's baby trapping him and he's falling for it.
47:48Not on my watch.
47:58Is it ready?
47:59Okay, great.
48:00I'll be there as soon as I can.
48:06Hey, baby.
48:09What's on your mind?
48:12Um...
48:13The call you got earlier.
48:16I kind of...
48:18overheard it.
48:20Thought there was gonna be no secrets, remember?
48:29Well, you may have noticed I'm not wearing my necklace.
48:34Yeah.
48:35That seems, um...
48:36strange.
48:38It's because I took it to a jeweler.
48:41And...
48:43La la la la la.
48:44Not listening.
48:45Not listening.
48:46You asked.
48:47I...
48:48Sorry, whatever you're saying, I can't hear you.
48:49La la la la la la la la la.
48:53I should have never doubted the tarot.
48:55I'm sorry.
48:57Okay, I've accepted my fate.
48:58Can you please just tell me if you said propose?
49:01Man, please!
49:03Send me a wipe.
49:05Yes?
49:06Can I help you?
49:07Yeah, I was actually looking for a gas station if you...
49:12I was actually looking for a gas station if you...
49:14No!
49:15Stop!
49:16Send me.
49:17Are you still there?
49:19No!
49:20No!
49:21No!
49:22No!
49:23Nope!
49:24Hey!
49:30That's it!
49:32These guys just kidnapped Sidney and put it in a van!
49:34What?
49:35Yeah!
49:36I've post security footage.
49:37I'll call 911!
49:38Yeah, yeah!
49:40Let's go!
49:44Welcome up.
49:47You got our GPS location?
49:54Stay here.
50:03Not so sassy now, are you?
50:06That's a stock.
50:10Don't do something you're an immigrant.
50:12Trust me, I'm not.
50:15Okay, don't do this. Let's just talk.
50:18About what?
50:20About you marrying this slut?
50:23Or about you crawling back to your family to get her location?
50:26I thought that you were never going to go back to them, remember?
50:33I know you're hurt, Vanessa.
50:36It's between me and you, okay?
50:37Just leave Cindy out of this.
50:39This big misunderstanding, okay?
50:41What do you say?
50:42I say, leave Cindy and marry me.
50:54I take that as a no.
50:56You really love her, don't you?
50:58That's too bad.
51:05Because I really didn't want to do this, but you're not really leaving me a choice.
51:10Put the lighter down.
51:11Let's just talk.
51:13If I can't have you, she certainly can.
51:17So that's...
51:17No, no, no, no, no!
51:32Yo, Jackson's still in there.
51:34Go, go, go!
51:34Jackson!
51:36Jackson!
51:44Jackson!
51:45You're alive!
51:50Jackson!
51:52Jackson!
51:53Somebody help, please!
51:55Let go of me, you pig!
51:58Jackson is mine!
52:00You're alive!
52:00You're alive!
52:00You're alive!
52:00You're alive!
52:02And that's what I mean, you're under arrest!
52:04Please.
52:06Jackson, please.
52:07Please hold on.
52:08Don't leave me.
52:09Jackson.
52:10Jackson.
52:12I can't believe it.
52:14No.
52:15Jackson!
52:16No!
52:17Please!
52:18No!
52:19Please!
52:21Jackson!
52:22Jackson!
52:22Jackson!
52:22Sandy!
52:33Sandy.
52:34Hi, Jackson.
52:35Hi, I'm here.
52:38No, no.
52:39Easy, easy.
52:40I don't want to push anything.
52:42Here, can I get some water?
52:43Yeah.
52:44Please.
52:44Yeah, sure, Dad.
52:48You need to go.
52:49Don't worry.
52:50We'll take good care of you.
52:52Mm-hmm.
52:53Mm-hmm.
52:57Come here.
52:59You're the best kid a dad could have asked for.
53:02I'll go get your medicine.
53:06He's really stepping up.
53:08That's amazing.
53:10This can't be why he messed so much with 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?
53:33Because I paid her to leave you so she wouldn't trap you with a baby.
53:38I told her I'd ruin her life if she didn't leave you.
53:45Well, is that what you're doing here now?
53:47To threaten her again?
53:48No.
53:49Is that what...
53:51Mom?
53:52Get out.
53:52No.
53:53Mom?
53:54Get the fuck out of here!
53:55Go!
53:56Jackson.
53:56I'm sorry, son.
53:58I'm so sorry.
54:00Cindy.
54:01Why...
54:02Why didn't you just tell me?
54:05I thought you said no more lies.
54:09I'm a mother now.
54:13And even though I would never make the choices that you did,
54:18I can understand them.
54:22And I forgive you.
54:24You're a strong woman, Cindy.
54:28And an excellent mother.
54:33I'll give it to you some space.
54:41Jackson, I'm so sorry for everything.
54:44When Cindy broke up with you, I saw how heartbroken you were,
54:47and I immediately knew I'd made a terrible mistake.
54:50But 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?
55:13Hi, Grandma.
55:14I'm Noah.
55:15Hi, Noah.
55:18Don't worry.
55:19It's okay.
55:20Yes.
55:23It is now.
55:39Wow.
55:40Hey.
55:43Where is the uniform?
55:44I got it.
55:45You got the ring?
55:47I got it.
55:48All right.
55:49Speaking of, how soon are you getting there?
55:50Only the best is bringing her.
55:52Mom, can you please go to Dad's photo shoot?
55:54Please, please, please, please.
55:57Fine.
55:59Because you asked so much.
56:01What is going on, what is going on, what is all of this?
56:13What is all of this?
56:15I want to make up for all the lost time.
56:23I want to give Noah, give Noah, give Noah a home and a wedding with a boy to sing your wife.
56:32Will you marry me?
56:35Yes.
56:36Yes.
56:37Yes.
56:38Yes.
56:39A million times.
56:40Yes.
56:40I want everything that I've done.
