00:00Someone called out!
00:30Let's go, let's go, let's go, move it, move it, move it!
00:44Ow!
00:50Cat!
00:51Only one nurse remaining.
00:52Sidney White.
01:00Jackson, am I dreaming?
01:15It's been nearly a decade.
01:18Jesus!
01:30Come on, come on Jackson, let's go, let's go, come on, you got me, come on, let's go, yes, 22, 13, new record!
02:00You did amazing.
02:04You're for sure going to ace that firefighter aptitude test.
02:08Why are you leaving me for New York?
02:10Why is summer already over?
02:12Well, I'm not leaving you, Sidney.
02:16Look, I know it's only been one summer, but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
02:25I'm glad I stole you away from that loser, Gary.
02:29Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
02:33Seriously, wait for you.
02:34I'll come back for you.
02:39I love you, Sidney White.
02:42I love you, T.O. Jackson, Carl.
02:50Oh.
02:51One more thing?
02:52No!
02:57You ass!
02:59I can't be pregnant.
03:05I have to tell Jackson.
03:16Lorraine.
03:17You 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, and I will not let you ruin it.
03:31Get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
03:34I swear I will destroy everything you have.
03:38But I love him!
03:39But I love him!
03:42We love each other!
03:46If you really love him, then walk away.
03:50My son deserves better.
03:52All right, this is it.
04:02I'm going to 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.
04:09What?
04:22Whoa.
04:28Uh, hey!
04:28What are you doing in here?
04:33I'm here to break up with you.
04:39Wait, what?
04:41Break up? Why?
04:53What the fuck?
04:55Is this a fucking joke?
04:57Why are you even left getting your back with this fucking asshole?
04:59Hey, watch your mouth!
05:00Yes, Gary and I are back together.
05:03I was thinking about it, and his family money can give me the life I've always dreamed of.
05:09And I don't want to worry about losing my partner in a fire someday.
05:13But you've always been supportive of my dreams.
05:18Goodbye, Jackson.
05:20That was hilarious! Did you see his face priceless?
05:32Gary, go home.
05:34We're not getting back together.
05:35What?
05:36Well, first you begged me to come out here, and now you push me away?
05:38You psycho bitch!
05:40You only made one thing.
05:41I'm sorry, Jackson.
05:42I'm so sorry.
05:43Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
05:46But reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 years ago.
05:47We're not getting back together.
05:48We're not getting back together.
05:49What?
05:50Well, first you begged me to come out here, and now you push me away?
05:52You psycho bitch!
05:53I'm sorry, Jackson.
05:54I'm so sorry.
05:55Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
06:12But reports are saying that you've stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol
06:17allows.
06:18What was your reason for staying inside?
06:20Well, I'm just doing my job.
06:24Captain Jackson, I just wanted to say on behalf of my father's hospital, thank you
06:31for saving our lives.
06:33You are truly a hero.
06:35It's no problem.
06:36You must be tired after all that.
06:38You could use a little rest.
06:39Why don't we go back to my VIP lounge and share with me and have a lot of fun?
06:44Thanks, but no thanks.
06:46I actually have to check on a patient.
06:47Thank you for your time.
06:48No problem.
06:49I'll come with you.
06:50Time to get back to work, Cindy White.
06:52Box ticking.
06:53Okay, Vanessa.
06:54Jackson?
06:55Excuse me?
06:56That is Captain Jackson Carter to you.
07:01He's L.A.'s hottest, bravest, most badass firefighter.
07:02And he just saved your worthless life.
07:03Vanessa, please.
07:04That's not necessary.
07:06Vanessa, please.
07:07That's not necessary.
07:09Where's his thank you?
07:10You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
07:11And if something happened.
07:12That's not necessary.
07:13You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
07:14And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it.
07:15Trust me.
07:16I would have made you pay for it.
07:17I would have made you pay for it.
07:18Trust me.
07:19I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
07:20I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
07:22Don't talk back to me, Cindy.
07:23bravest, most badass firefighter and he just saved your worthless life.
07:29Vanessa, please. That's not necessary.
07:32Where's his thank you?
07:35You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire and if something had
07:41happened to him, I would have made you pay for it. Trust me.
07:44I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
07:47Don't talk back to me, Sandy.
07:51I'm your boss. My dad owns this hospital.
07:55You're mother where?
07:57I am so sick of your temper.
08:01You know what? You're fired.
08:07You know what? You're fired.
08:11What? Come on, Vanessa, I need this job.
08:15Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you talked back to the boss's daughter.
08:21Come on. Let's go somewhere more 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.
08:33Hey, Cindy, how would you like to join my team?
08:37What?
08:38A paramedic job?
08:40What's the catch, Jackson?
08:42What game is this?
08:47Thank you so much, but I can't accept.
08:51Sorry.
08:52You just ran past me.
08:54That's okay.
08:55Great.
08:56Just what I need.
08:57More homebodies.
08:58All right, I'm almost ready.
08:59Thank you for saving my mom.
09:00Oh.
09:01Just doing my job.
09:02You have a son?
09:03Yeah.
09:04This is Noah.
09:05Hi, my name is Noah.
09:06Nice to meet you.
09:07Hi, my name is Noah.
09:08Nice to meet you.
09:09Hi.
09:10Hi.
09:11Hi.
09:12Hi.
09:13Hi.
09:14Hi.
09:15Hi.
09:17Hi.
09:18Hi.
09:19Hi.
09:20Noah, nice to meet you.
09:23Hey, nice to meet you.
09:26I'm Jackson.
09:29Wait, you're my dad!
09:32Noah.
09:33You didn't tell him that?
09:36That's not funny.
09:38I'm so sorry.
09:40We have to go get ice cream.
09:42Yes.
09:43Right?
09:44Let's go.
09:45I love ice cream.
09:47Noah, why did you pull Jackson down?
09:52He looks like my dad for my dream.
10:00So after she broke up with me, she had a kid with Gary?
10:17So your love life is a disaster.
10:23Tell me something I don't know.
10:25But, but, but, but, but, your soulmate's here.
10:29And true love follows.
10:31Is there anything in here about money?
10:34Let's not pay in the rent, honey.
10:36Jackson's job would.
10:39That's not gonna happen.
10:41Okay, well, argue with the cards, honey.
10:43You're fated to take this gig.
10:45Marry the love of your life, and live happily ever after.
10:50Okay, see, this is why I don't live terribly.
10:53Because my life has never been this neat.
10:55Okay, well, good thing you don't have to believe in it for it to be true.
11:00Jackson loves you, and I don't need the cards to know that.
11:05Okay, we're done.
11:08Conversation.
11:09Run all you want, bank comes for us all.
11:12Good night.
11:13Mark my words, honey.
11:15You two are not over.
11:28What do you want, Vanessa?
11:32Just making sure you're not stealing anything.
11:35Strip searcher.
11:36What ext...
11:38No, are you kidding?
11:40What is this?
11:41Ext...
11:41Are we in high school?
11:43Wait, what?
11:45The stripper talk.
11:46She might be hiding medicine under.
11:47Vanessa!
11:48What is this?
11:50Fuck.
11:52Let's go.
11:53No.
11:54No, wait!
11:55No!
11:55Enjoy the chill time, bitch.
11:58Come on!
12:00Fuck!
12:01Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:02Vanessa!
12:07Thanks for implementing the new safety measures, Captain Carter.
12:10For the last time, call me Jackson.
12:13I'm just doing my job.
12:14You're too modest, Jackson.
12:18Help!
12:20Somebody help, please!
12:23Cindy!
12:24Hello?
12:26Cindy!
12:27Jackson!
12:28Hey!
12:28Hey, can you help me?
12:32All right, stand back.
12:33Okay.
12:33Wait, turn around!
12:41Okay.
12:43Here.
12:44Jackson.
12:45I'm not looking.
12:46Wait, the door!
12:47I'm not looking.
12:47Oh, shit!
12:50Fuck.
12:54Wait, the door!
12:54I'm not looking.
12:55Oh, shit!
12:57Fuck.
12:58Fuck.
12:58Great.
12:59Now we're both stuck in here.
13:09Damn.
13:10Is he sexier than I remember?
13:14You know it's rude to stare.
13:16Jerk.
13:19So, when do you have a kid?
13:21When did you come back, Captain Jackson Carter?
13:25Where are you here?
13:28What do you want from me?
13:29Well, I always said I'd come back.
13:32That was years ago.
13:34You were kids.
13:35Does it make it not true?
13:39What about you?
13:41No ring.
13:42No Gary inside.
13:44I guess that happily ever after didn't work out.
13:46Hey.
13:46You just got fired.
13:47Just take my job.
13:49Okay?
13:49It's a good offer.
13:50No.
13:51I don't need your offer.
13:53I don't need you to rescue me.
13:54Again.
13:55What are you so afraid of?
13:58Think about your son.
14:00He's got a point.
14:01I do need a job.
14:02And money.
14:06Fine.
14:07I'll take your offer.
14:09And I'll be the best paramedic there is on the team.
14:11It'll be your ass getting saved by mine.
14:13I saw her sneak into storage.
14:16She's up to something.
14:21I saw her sneak into the storage room.
14:24She's up to something.
14:25Probably stealing meds or case files or worse.
14:29I'm starting to think she's the one who started to fire.
14:32You're finished, thief.
14:37What?
14:38What is it?
14:41Jackson.
14:43But I only left her in here.
14:46Oh.
14:47Thanks for the confession.
14:48You bitch.
14:49Enough.
14:50Stop embarrassing yourself, Vanessa.
14:53I am so sorry for my daughter's behavior.
14:56This white, Mr. Carter.
14:57You're apologizing to her?
14:59Shut up.
15:00It's a problem.
15:08Well.
15:08Thank you for saving me again.
15:14Well, I wouldn't call getting us both trapped in that room once you could rescue.
15:19But I'll tell you again.
15:21Excited to see you at work?
15:23Why not?
15:30Hello?
15:31Hello, Miss White.
15:32It's Principal Coleman.
15:33Your son got into a fight.
15:35You need to come.
15:36Now.
15:36What?
15:41Noah!
15:42Are you hurt?
15:43Let me see.
15:44Is he hurt?
15:45He's the one who attacked my son.
15:48Oh.
15:48I'm sorry.
15:50If you're sending the doctor, I can cover it.
15:53I don't need your money.
15:54I have money.
15:55What I want is this animal, what you call a son, expelled.
16:04What?
16:06You're not going to do that, right?
16:08Well, per school policy, serious violence does warrant expulsion.
16:12But he started it!
16:14He called me a bastard.
16:16He said he called my mom a slut.
16:20My mom says that kids like you don't know your dad's because your mom's two slugs.
16:28Shut up!
16:28Hey!
16:29Don't!
16:30You're the other one!
16:30You're the other one!
16:30You're the other one!
16:30You're the other one!
16:35Shut up!
16:35Hey!
16:36Don't!
16:36You're the other one!
16:37You're the other one!
16:37You're the other one!
16:37You're the other one!
16:43Jackson!
16:44You okay, kidda?
16:45Get go of me!
16:47How dare you!
16:47Mr. Carter, hero of the city, you know the White family?
16:54I do.
16:55President Collins, I didn't know you allowed such bad decorum.
17:01Excuse me, you little son of a...
17:03Enough!
17:05Mr. Carter, I apologize for this incident, and you, you, you apologize to Noah.
17:12No way!
17:14This bastard attacked my son.
17:16This man has saved our school and countless others, and it's a price we could never hope to repay.
17:23Actually, there is a way to pay it back.
17:25Really?
17:27Well, just tell me how.
17:30Expel that boy.
17:37Expel that boy.
17:38Expel that boy.
17:38All right.
17:40Son, you are...
17:41Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
17:42No, we don't want to expel him.
17:44We don't?
17:45We don't?
17:45We don't.
17:46We don't.
17:47No.
17:48Both boys were in the wrong.
17:50Noah says it!
17:51You said extremely rude things to Noah and I, and you need to apologize.
17:57And Noah, you can't hit someone no matter what they say, okay?
18:01You need to say sorry.
18:02My son will not be apologizing, Bart.
18:05I just saved your son from expulsion.
18:11Son?
18:11So you're sorry.
18:13What?
18:13What was that?
18:19I'm sorry.
18:20Good.
18:22Noah?
18:23I'm sorry, I guess.
18:26I think you owe Miss White an apology, too.
18:31I am sorry, Miss White.
18:42See?
18:43Your mom's a smart cookie.
18:45I shouldn't have tried to expel that boy the same way you shouldn't have tried to fight him.
18:49Next time, just come to us or the principal, okay?
18:53Okay.
18:53Okay.
18:56Nice.
18:58Why does Captain Carter know the White's?
19:01Is...
19:01Is he Noah's dad?
19:07How does Captain Carter know the White family?
19:10Was...
19:11Is he Noah's dad?
19:12No, come on.
19:15Uh, Principal Colin, this isn't what it looks like.
19:18Oh, no, no.
19:18Do not worry, Miss White.
19:20Mom's the worst.
19:22You won't get a peep out of me.
19:23But there's nothing to...
19:25Oh, no, no.
19:25Do not fret.
19:27We're going to take very special care of Noah, both for you and for...
19:32just for you.
19:35So, what were you and Principal Collins whispering about?
19:41No, nothing.
19:45Yeah?
19:46It seemed like something.
19:48No, nothing.
19:49For you to know about.
19:51Ah, excellent qualifier.
19:53Hey, you want a race?
19:56Yes.
19:56Yeah?
19:56All right, go.
19:57Come on.
19:58Come on, I'm beating you.
19:59Come on, hurry up.
20:02Maybe I should tell him he's the father.
20:04He's so good with him.
20:10Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
20:12Hi.
20:13Hey.
20:14Can we take a selfie?
20:15I love your fire safety TikTok videos.
20:17And I adore your calendars.
20:19No, those are bad.
20:21All right, yeah, that's good.
20:22That's good.
20:24Nice.
20:26Jackson, could I have your phone number?
20:28If I'm ever feeling lightheaded in the bath,
20:31could I call you for a personal rescue?
20:33Ah, she's bad.
20:34Hey, before you play with your little fan club,
20:37can you make sure my kid's okay?
20:40He's just right here.
20:42Dad, he almost just ran in the middle of the street.
20:45Nope.
20:46I can't tell him he's the father.
20:47I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
20:49Here.
20:55Hey, you never answered my question.
20:57Oh, in case of emergency, just call 911.
21:00Okay.
21:01Cindy, hold on.
21:02Wait up.
21:03Sorry about that.
21:04That never happens.
21:05What now, superstar hero?
21:09You know, with your new job,
21:11it actually comes with a company house.
21:15Okay.
21:15No thanks.
21:16It's free.
21:20Well, then I guess we can move in.
21:24Great!
21:25Awesome.
21:26Okay.
21:26What's, uh, where are you at now?
21:28I can help you move.
21:29That's not necessary.
21:3047 Pie Lane apartment, 4B.
21:32Boom!
21:33See?
21:34That's why you're the man of the house.
21:36You little conspirator.
21:37Whoa.
21:52Whoa.
21:53My new room is so huge.
21:55Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
21:57Absolutely.
22:00You got it?
22:01Well, now that we're all alone.
22:17It's time to get sweaty.
22:19I'm sweating.
22:19I'm sweating.
22:19I'm sweating.
22:20I'm sweating.
22:20I'm packing, Cindy.
22:22Find out of the car.
22:25That was definitely on purpose.
22:27Oh, hey.
22:33Let me.
22:38Oh!
22:39I got it.
22:41Stop, stop, stop!
22:44Okay.
22:52What?
22:53Come here.
22:55Is she finally giving me a shot?
22:57Ow!
23:11What was that for?
23:15When I was trying to kiss you.
23:16What?
23:17Why?
23:18You said come here.
23:20There's something on your face.
23:22Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
23:30Okay.
23:31Well, I guess I'll get going.
23:34But be sure to say hi to your neighbor.
23:36I heard he's a great, handsome, charming, athletic, pawn, smart, intelligent guy.
23:45Really?
23:46Wait, you're my neighbor?
23:58I guess, uh...
23:59Huh.
24:01How convenient.
24:03Why the long face, Jackson?
24:20The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
24:22Yeah, except she's got a kid named Gary.
24:27Well, the trust fund catch you left before.
24:30Yeah.
24:31Except she's broke.
24:33You're right.
24:34He's loaded.
24:36I know, it doesn't make any sense.
24:38Whatever.
24:39I don't even care.
24:40You know what?
24:40I'm over her, actually.
24:42I'm Jackson Carter.
24:44All right?
24:44Town hero.
24:45I can get whoever I want.
24:47Yeah.
24:47All right.
24:48Keep telling yourself that.
24:52Hello, boys.
24:54Party has arrived.
24:56Vanessa, what are you doing here?
24:58You're acting all mopey, so I thought some company would do you some good.
25:02Okay.
25:03Welcome in.
25:05Hello, hello.
25:09Well, because I'm sure that I'm much more fun than whoever she is anyway.
25:12Mm-hmm.
25:14Let's get this party started.
25:17Cindy.
25:23Cindy!
25:26Okay.
25:27Okay.
25:28Cindy, hi.
25:31Would you like to come in?
25:33Um, I just wanted to say thank you.
25:35And I have.
25:37Bye.
25:40Would you like to come in?
25:41That's really sweet of you.
25:43We'd love to have you.
25:45Might play a game.
25:46It'd be fun.
25:56See?
25:58It's simple.
25:59Even Cindy's brat could do it.
26:01Get up.
26:02Let's play.
26:06Hey, do you actually learn switching with Cindy?
26:08What the fuck?
26:27Oops.
26:28I guess I've had a little too much fun.
26:29Vanessa, what's your problem?
26:31Don't yell at me, Jackson.
26:32I'm just having a little fun.
26:34Is that too much for Cindy?
26:35I'm so sorry.
26:38Here.
26:40This is it.
26:42Nice.
26:46What are you two looking at?
26:52Hey.
26:54Don't worry.
26:54I'm leaving.
26:55I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
26:57No, no.
26:57I'm sorry.
26:58I don't know what that was.
26:59Are you okay?
27:00What do you think?
27:06Sorry.
27:07For that.
27:09And for crashing your little party.
27:11Looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
27:16Wait, hold on.
27:17Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
27:19Do you like me?
27:20Don't flatter yourself.
27:25I'd never like an arrogant ass like you.
27:28Oh.
27:29So you'd like a rich prick like Gary.
27:32Gary, go home.
27:34We're not getting back together.
27:35You psycho bitch.
27:38What are you talking about?
27:40Oh, stop.
27:41See, don't play dumb.
27:43All right, you dumbed me for him eight years ago and he's known his dad, right?
27:46You have no idea what you're talking about.
27:55Okay, then tell me.
27:57Cindy, please just tell me then.
28:00Get rid of the baby and disappear from his life.
28:03I swear I will destroy everything you have.
28:08It's better he thinks Noah is Gary's kid than the truth.
28:12It was over a decade ago.
28:14Just let it go, Jackson.
28:16Maybe you want to forget about it because you don't want to come to terms that you traded
28:26love, real love, for money.
28:30You know, we could have had something together.
28:33We could have had a future together.
28:34Jackson, please.
28:37You know what?
28:38Fine.
28:39Here.
28:40I don't want you to catch a cold.
28:46Jackson, please.
28:56I've had it since the beginning.
28:59Maybe this is stupid, but it's like my good luck charm.
29:04Every time I have it with me, I feel like I can always make it through.
29:08Jackson, stop.
29:13Okay?
29:14Thank you for saving me.
