Mayday. Emergency. Gas explosion.
Firefighters down.

I screwed up. I deliberately broke protocol.
It's my fault that they're dead.
Don't do this, Jason... taking the blame.
You don't tell the truth about what happened,
you'll never ride a rig again.
- What's the prognosis? - The cancer's in my bones.
My odds are not good.
I'm not thinking about odds,
I'm here and so are you

Her latest numbers look good.
It's a big jump for just a couple days treatment.
Yeah, she just hasn't been eating,
and she's sleeping all the time.
That's the chemo. Not much we can do about that.
Hey, ladies, quit gossiping about me.
[chuckles] Doc says you're doing great.
Yeah, well, no offense, Doc, but my definition of great
doesn't include tossing my cookies every hour.
I'm sorry about that, Anna.
I'll order you something for that.
Hang in there.
It's good.
[monitor beeping]
- I'm gonna take the shift off. - Oh, come on, Kelly.
You've been watching me sleep for, like, two days.
My dad's gonna be here in, like, half an hour.
- Just go to work. - I don't mind.
- Go! - [chuckles]
I'm fine.
Just a phone call away.
Hm.
So...
How'd it go with Kannell?
He's determined to take the fall.
Protecting Doyle's memory.
It'd be noble as hell if he weren't tanking his career.
Well, that's his choice.
The case is being closed at today's monthly review panel.
So we go to the panel. Ask them to postpone it.
We don't have the standing.
Kannell is sticking to his story.
Then we gotta change the story somehow.
Okay.
Whatever you need.
Hey, I'm not gonna rush into this and end up
with some serial killer, okay?
Then you can pay the extra rent.
What, you guys still looking for a roommate?
In your place? Where would you put them?
A three bedroom unit just opened up in our building.
Oh, those are great.
Yeah, so Otis said, "Let's grab one.
We'll get a third roommate. It'll be cheaper," he said.
One third of more money is less than half of less money.
That's just math.
So we moved in and lined up Levantini.
- From first shift. - But his girlfriend asked him
to move in with her, so now we're screwed.
This was supposed to save me money, not cast me.
Leon is starting community college in Florida,
and Cruz is footing the bill.
I get this new bouncer gig and that helps, but...
What about me?
For a roommate.
'Cause I've been going nuts trying to find a new place
within my price range before my landlord doubles my rent,
so it would really help me out.
And you know I'm not a serial killer, so...
- Do we? - Just think about it.
People in this house really can't help
moving in with each other, huh?
It's like a compulsion.
Wai... didn't you invite Severide to stay with you
after he moved out of Casey's?
That was different.

Of all the Chiefs on the panel, he's our best bet.
- Harry! - Wallace.
I'm already running late, but you knew that.
Just need a moment of your time before
- you go into the panel. - Who's this?
Chief Harry Moran, Lieutenant Matt Casey.
- The alderman. - Yes, sir.
I wanted to talk to you about the Squad 6
sewer tunnel incident. We've already lost so many men.
I'd hate to see us lose Kannell, too.
I think getting two firefighters killed
is a pretty good reason to end a career.
Unless he wasn't the one who screwed up.
He's already admitted as such.
All due respect, sir, it wasn't Kannell's fault.
It was Doyle's.
That's a hell of an accusation to make
of a man who can't defend himself.
The way Kannell says it went down...
him dropping the meter, running back to the rig...
we're talking 50 feet.
If those levels were normal before he dropped the meter...
There's no way the air saturated while he ran 50 feet.
The only way this could've happened is if
Doyle got a high reading, and then took them in there anyway.
Then why is Kannell taking the blame?
Because he didn't want Doyle's wife and kids to think
he died anything but a hero... and neither do we.
What if there were another option?
One that clears Kannell, and keeps Doyle out of it?
I'm all ears.
[pen clatters]
You okay?
Yeah, I'm just...
just looking up stuff for Anna.
Hm.

Yes, because you're so low-key

Let's hear one.
Yup. She's got nothing.
- What about the parking space? - Ah, yes! Look.
The landlord only gave us one parking spot in the garage,
which me and Otis are already trading off on,
which sucks, by the way.
I'll park on the street.
