• Blake Gallo : [searching an apartment roof for a person trapped]  Hello?

  [as he keeps searching, he sees a plank pushed against the door to the inside and a man sitting over the edge of the roof] 

  Blake Gallo : Lieutenant, our victim isn't trapped.

  Roof Man : What are you doing here? Get away from me!

  Stella Kidd : Gallo, we didn't catch the end of that.

  Blake Gallo : Hey, it's okay.

  [adjusts his radio so Kidd, Carver, and Mouch can hear him without pressing the transmission button] 

  Blake Gallo : We just got a report that there was someone trapped on the roof. I'm here to help.

  Roof Man : I'm not trapped. Get the hell out of here!

  Roof Man : I got a few, yeah. I'm gonna be an embarrassment to them. After this news comes out.

  Blake Gallo : Say that's true, worst case scenario. Even so, time passes. Sooner than you think, it'll be in the rear view mirror. You'll still be here. That's all they want. Every day, that's all I wish, that my family was still here.

  Emergency dispatch : Crisis team is two blocks away.

  Stella Kidd : Copy that.

  Roof Man : I appreciate you saying that.

  Blake Gallo : It's the truth. That's all. People can make it through really hard times and still live a beautiful life.

  Roof Man : I'm sorry about all this.

  Blake Gallo : It happens. All that matters is that the...
