Jake: Hey. I'm not sure if you heard my apology earlier.
Rick: Yeah. It sounded real sincere.
Jake: Well, I meant it.
Rick: Look, I know I was a tool in high school. So I get it. But I'm changing. It's actually why I'm back in town.
Jake: Oh, yeah?
Rick: Yeah. Do you remember Cara Masonite? I saw online that she had died. But then I heard that she had this little sister who ended up being her daughter.
Jake: Genevieve.
Rick: And Cara and I, we had fooled around. Just one time. So I don't have to tell Bode or anything. But, long story short, I think I'm here to meet my little girl.
Gabriela: Who's the civilian doing the rescue?
Vince: Who do you think?
Sharon: Is it my stubborn son? With no gear, inside a burning building.
Rick: To save a kid.
Jake: Listen Rick. You want to stay out of our way.
Gabriela: Jake.
Jake: What? No. Good morning, 5 AM. And good morning, Gabriela.
Gabriela: I -- I need your breakfast, frittata. And also, how was Bode's party?
Jake: I didn't go. You didn't go?
Gabriela: Why didn't you go?
Jake: Well, I think I got in Bode's head at the Lazarus fire. Why didn't you go?
Gabriela: I'm his ex. It's weird.
Jake: You're my ex. Sitting in my bed. At 5 AM. That's not weird at all. And you don't even work here anymore.
Eve: I know. I am here to scold. You both missed Bode's party.
Gabriela: Well, I sent him a donut.
Eve: I'm serious. He needs us. He needs his support system. He needs us.
Jake: Okay. Yeah. You're right. We should have totally been there. I -- I feel terrible.
Gabriela: I feel worse.
Eve: And I feel hungry. Jake, you cooking? Cause enjoy me while you can. Because I might be moving to Sacramento.
Gabriela: Wait, what?
Jake: Huh? Sacramento? What's in Sacramento?
Jake: Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. Die?
Sharon: No. No, no, no, no. The procedure went great. And it's curative. I'm just -
Jake: Afraid he could die at work, because we all could at any minute on the job.
Sharon: That one.
Jake: Yeah. Gene is too. I mean, she tenses up every time that I leave for work. I don't know if I can keep leaving her.
Sharon: You're not thinking about quitting?
Jake: No, no, no, no. I was -- I don't know -- I was thinking more of the inspector route.
Sharon: Oh, okay. So Superman is going to become Clark Kent full time.
Eve: Some guy from LMU heard there's contraband beer floating around.
Jake: Well, we could always get one.
Eve: Mmm hmm.
Bode: What, just pass one beer around, like ...
Everyone: Stacey Jenson's sweet 16 party.
Eve: Yo, that was the night I found my people.
Jake: Aww, that was beautiful.
Eve: Okay, I'm trying to be serious. Listen, Riley and you guys, I just, I don't know. Y'all liked me for me.
Jake: And we still do.
Bode: Mm. Mostly.
Eve: Even funnier, now that I finally found my footing at Three Rock, just in time for them to close it.
Bode: We got right now. And that's it.
Eve: To the bubble.
Jake: Gabs and I just weren't meant to be.
Roberta: What happened?
Jake: She fell in love with another guy.
Roberta: Of course. Diego. He seems lovely, though. He loves her.
Jake: No. No, no. I'm sorry. Gabs, she didn't break up with me for Diego. She broke up with me for Bode.
Roberta: Who's Bode?
Jake: Um, ah, that's Bode. Blonde. Behind the table.
Roberta: Oh
Jake: In orange.
Roberta: Like mother, like daughter.
Bode: When you called me, you told me that she was my daughter.
Jake: I know. And I messed up.
Bode: It saved my life. She's the reason I was working so hard.
Jake: Look, I know you might think that, but before that, your reason was Gabriela. Before that, it was your folks. Man, you went back to prison for Freddy. I don't know, but you keep putting your reason for living on other people. And I don't know if it's because you don't want to look at yourself but you have to count on yourself.
Bode: That's easy for you to say. Out there.
Jake: No. It isn't. 'Cause in case you forgot, I was counting on a future with Cara. But things change in an instant.
Bode: Yeah.
Bode: What happened with signing the papers today?
Jake: Listen, uh, about that.
Bode: If you don't think that I'm right for the job, for Gene, then just say something.
Jake: No. It's not about you Bode. Whether or not you're right for the job. I have the job. She doesn't know you. But I know her. Look, I know that she hates the dentist and sleeping with her socks on. That she loves thunderstorms. That when she says eggs over easy what she really means is over medium. And that she needs to know what's coming around the corner in detail. Or else she gets really anxious.
Bode: Okay. Okay. Look, I haven't had a chance to get to know her.
Jake: I know. But I've been raising her. That I want to. And more importantly, Gene wants me to. And I'm nervous and I will need help. So I'm not trying to push you out B, but I think this needs to be me. And you'll be Uncle Bode.
Jake: Gene's never snapped at me like that.
Vince: She's grieving. And she's preteen. Trust me. Outbursts like that, pretty normal.
Jake: No. Gene's like me. She bottles it up.
Vince: Hm. 'Kay. Unbottled then. What are you trying to say?
Jake: Okay, well fine, if we're doing it. All due respect, maybe you guys and Bode rushed the decision. I mean, maybe, just maybe, you guys rushed Gene.
Jake: This place is going to collapse. And when it does, it'll be your fault. And you will have to live with it. As for me, I'm just going to laugh.
Genevieve: Shut up. Let me concentrate.
Eve: Gabs, your dad said the daddiest dad joke of all time. I go good job putting out the fire. He said...
Manny: We fame to please.
Eve: He -- no. Boo.
Gabriela: Stop.
Manny: What do you think, Jake? Does that joke belong in the Hall of Flame?
Eve: Oh no.
Gabriela: No.
Manny: Come on.
Eve: Boo.
Manny: Come on. That was good.
Gabriela: Dad.
Manny: That was good.
Gabriela: No.
Jake: Yo, Eve. You and your crew are on mopup, okay?
Manny: Guess he doesn't like my jokes.
Eve: I'm a little worried about Jake. You know, it's been like a month since Cara passed. And he hasn't taken any time off.
Gabriela: That's how he's dealing with his grief.
Don't you dare saddle this kid up with another dead parent at 12 years old.
