Firefighter #1: I wish I had cute little jumpsuits like the paramedics.
Wick Lobo: You fire boys don’t have the body for these.
Firefighter #1: Oh, very funny, Wick.
Firefighter #2: Hey, Wick. How’d you get my toothbrush?
Wick: *laughs* From your wife.
(Wick follows Bell into the paramedic’s bedroom. Puts his bag on bed. Does a handstand, walking)
Bell: You’re still working on that circus career, man?
Wick: Yeah.
Paramedic: I’m taking off. Your new partner is here.
(Bell and Wick rushes to the window to see who it is)
(Ryan is in her jeep. Pauses. Looks at station. Gets out and walks to the station)
(Bell and Wick rushes downstairs)
Paramedic: Have a good shift.
Ryan: Thanks.
Captain Durfee: Hey, Ryan.
Ryan: Hey. Ice Cream for the engine.
(Hands Captain Durfee a tub of Ice cream)
Captain Durfee: Thanks. Welcome back.
Two Dogs: (pats Ryan on back) Ryan, its good to have you back.

medics.

Ryan: Thanks. It’s good to be back. (alarms ring for Rescue 77. Ryan continues) Let’s go.
Episode: “Remember Me Part 1”
Quote #1:
Bell: Thunderbird 2.
Wick: Oh, yeah.
Bell: (hits Wick on the arm) Thunderbird 2!
Wick: Thunderbird 2? Thunderbird 2 was a hog, man. All it ever did was carry and drop off Thunderbird 4.
Ryan: What are you guys talking about?
Wick: Only the greatest TV rescue show ever made--- Thunderbirds.
Ryan: You’re arguing over a 30-year-old puppet show.
(Scene changes and returns bag to the R.A.)
Wick: Of course Thunderbird 1 got all the action, so---
Bell: Come on. That’s too obvious.
Wick: It’s like he had that whole bending palm tree runway thing going for it.
Bell: And the mother in the window.
Wick: And the puppet strings.
Bell: *laughs* I loved those strings.
Ryan: Stop it!
Quote #2:
Bridges: Carla! Hey, I got this new camera. Let me take a picture. Here. Stand—stand here. Right there.
You look good.
(Water falls from bucket and hits Carla. Laughs come from people. Bridges takes a picture)
Captain Durfee: Welcome to the 77.
Bridges: Where the weathers unpredictable. Good picture. (Shows the picture to Carla)
(Laughs come from the two firefighters who dumped the water)
Quote #3:
Ryan: Didn’t I give you a key, mom?
Ryan’s mother: Oh, you know me and keys, darling. (pauses) How was your day?
Ryan: Oh, long. We had this one case where---
Ryan’s mother: You wouldn’t believe this woman in the checkout line today. There must have been 10 of
us all backed up in line while she paid for the entire thing in pennies. I couldn’t believe it. Pennies. (pauses)
You look tired. How about some tea? I brought some.
Ryan: Sure. (pauses) Oh, w-wait. Its real tea right?
Ryan’s mother: Yes, darling.
Ryan: None of those weird alien herbs brewed in goats’ bladder you’re always trying to force on me. I hate
that.
Ryan’s mother: (hands a teas cup with plate) Let is cool a moment.
Ryan: Mom?
Ryan’s mother: Mm-hmm?
Ryan: Did dad ever talk to you about work? Things he saw?
Ryan’s mother: Oh, the funny stories. You know, the guys at the station, stuff like that. He tried not to think
about the rest. Neither should you honey.
Quote #4:
Two Dogs: What’s our flow out there?
Captain Durfee: Looks like 2,000 gallons. I’ll have second from relay up on the blake for pressure.
Carla Aguilar: Uh, is there anything special I need to know?
Bridges: The universe is meaningless chaos, governed only by random acts of destruction. Now, civilians
don’t understand that, cops don’t understand that. Only we do. You know why that is? Because we are the
children of chaos.
Quote #5:
(Shift change 7:12 AM)
Ryan: Uh, this was stuck in my box. It’s a department reminder to do your hospital practical rotation.
Bell: Right. Right.
Carla: Hospital practical?
Ryan: Yeah, it’s part of our recertification—4 hours every few months, doing, um, hospital duty,
witnessing random autopsies, that kind of stuff.
Carla: Autopsies?
Wick: Yeah, it’s the way to see the inside of what we do outside.
Captain Durfee: All right, be safe, boys and girls.
(Hand shakes)
Episode: “The Wedding”
Quote #1:
Bridges: I’m just saying that’s the last time I try to put out a campfire with my own equipment.
Carla: Maybe you needed a bigger hose?
Bridges: More beer.
Two Dogs: Hey, careful now. These women could feel sexually harassed.
Carla: Can I feel harassed by an eunuch?
Ryan: Look, I don’t mind talking about sex. It’s just there are other things to talk about besides sex.
Captain Durfee: Sports?
Wick: No, see man. It’s genetic, all right? Evolution requires that I have a sexual thought every 8 seconds
and I have to seek multiple partners throughout my lifetime. That is why marriage doesn’t work.
Bridges: Poor, Lobo. Check him out. He’s sittin’ here, all his DNA just pressure-packed, dyin’ to get out.
Captain Durfee: Sounds like a job for a professional.
(Laughter comes from the guys and ‘ooh’ comes from Ryan and Carla)
Carla: Well, why don’t you try a dating service.
Wick: I don’t think so.
Bridges: So, Lobo, how long have you been celibate?
Wick: About 6 weeks.
(‘Ooh’ comes from a few people around the table)
Bell: (walks in) the problem is trying to figure out what women want.
Ryan: I want the mustard.
Wick: the problem is that men and women have different sexual needs.
Carla: No that’s bull. Me and my girlfriends want it as much as men do.
Wick: Oh, well, then maybe you want to introduce me.
Carla: Maybe I want to keep my friends.
(Again some people ‘ooh’)
Ryan: You know, Wick, you could do what most men do and take the situation into your own hands.
Wick: Yeah. Will they respect me in the morning?
(Station 77 alarm rings)
Dispatcher: Station 77, fire. Majestic Theater, Wilson Ave.. cross Ventra. Time out--- 13:35.>br>
Captain Durfee: Let’s take it on the run boys and girls.
Quote #2:
Wick: All right, you have your self-adhesive gauze, tongue depressors, triangle bandages, maybe the house
by myself for the weekend.
Bell: Who says I’m goin’ away?
Wick: I just figure, if you were gonna stay at Megan’s again, maybe I could get a little somethin’
somethin’.
Bell: The last girl you got a little somethin’ somethin’ from, you had to inflate.
Wick: Hey, man. I got the hostess from Marie’s calendars primed and ready, all right? She’s just a little bit
shy. If you’re there she’s gonna feel inhibited.
Bell: Are we done here?
Wick: Almost. (pauses) Hey, man, is it true what they say about nurses?
Bell: I’m not even having this conversation.
Wick: This might be outside the pattern.
Bell: What pattern?
Wick: The Bell curve. It’s 4 days, right? Fourth date, you usually sleep with her. You’re givin’ me the post-
coital highlights. 5 and 6, you’re looking for something wrong. 7 and 8, you’re breaking up.
Bell: That’s not true.
Wick: Okay, let’s see, who is there? There’s, uh, there’s Betty. And then there was, uh… Lisa. And then
uh, uh… uh… what’s that girl with the lisp?
Bell: Susan.
Wick: Yeah, that’s two months, right?
Bell: Her cats hated me.
Wick: I just hope Megan develops some annoying habits.
Bell: Why is that?
Wick: Because I don’t want to find another place to live.
