"Hey Sully! It's almost on," Ty called as he settled in on the couch of the firehouse and glanced over at Doherty. "Nice of you to invite us here."
"Hey, the more, the merrier. We've got to band together," Jimmy replied with a smile.
"I brought some snacks," Sully said as he came in with large bags of popcorn, potato chips and Doritos.
"You think you've got enough there?" Ty asked with a grin. "I thought you were trying to cut down."
"It's not just for me, wiseass," Sully said. He opened the bag of popcorn, took out a handful and flung it at his partner.
"Hey! None of that," Jimmy said lazily. "You guys make a mess, you're cleaning it up. I'm officially off duty."
"Hey, no problem, I've got it," stated Doc who had just arrived. Luckily, he just happened to have a broom with him, and he began to sweep up the popcorn that was scattered on the floor as Ty tried not to laugh.
"Jimmy! You've got the wrong channel!" Doc shouted as the face of Ray Romano came onto the screen. "Turn it! Turn it, quick."
"Alright, alright, sorry!" Jimmy quickly flicked the remote control in time for the end of Bosco and Faith's fight scene from the previous week. "Saint Faith? Wow, Bos...not good."
"Faith doesn't deserve that," scowled Scully as he reached for another handful of popcorn.
"Wow, Jimmy...Kim's pretty hot for this Aaron guy, huh?" Ty commented as the show began.
"Shut up, Davis," Jimmy said as he glared at the screen.
"Wonder who she's going to get for a partner?" Ty asked as they watched Faith talking to Swersky.
"I don't know...Hard to believe after all those years together, Bosco and Faith are splitting up." Sully shook his head in disbelief.
"It happens," Ty shrugged. "Sometimes partners just can't resolve things."
"You trying to tell me something, Davis?"
"No...no, but a few weeks back, Sul...I wasn't sure what was going on with us...We're cool now though." He offered his partner a reassuring smile.
"Hey you see that?" Jimmy interrupted. "Bosco saying he didn't have a girlfriend? Oh man...I always knew there was something up between him and Yokas."
Doc shook his head doubtfully. "No...I really don't think that's true. Faith loves Fred."
"What do you two think?" Jimmy asked, glancing at Sully and Ty. "You work a lot more closely with them than we do."
"No comment," Ty responded, as he shook his head and smiled.
"I don't know," Sully mused thoughtfully. "I used to think maybe...I mean Faith putting up with all of Bosco's crap has to say something, but...now...I don't know..."
Their attention was drawn back to the t.v. as the theme song began to play and the opening credits began to roll.
"At least we get our faces shown now," Jimmy said, nodding his head in approval as the scenes flashed by. "Damn...I look good. When I slide down that fire pole...that, my friends, is quality television."
"Yeah well, I'm looking pretty good myself," Ty stated. "I like that scene when I found that little girl. That's a good one."
Jimmy rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, Davis. We've heard this all before."
"Yeah, well I found her, didn't I?"
"Man...that was season one," Doc said. "We're what...almost through season four now? That's pretty old news."
"Hey, quiet, it's coming back on," Sully said and the four men began to watch.

The show was reaching its conclusion when Fred came traipsing into the room. "Hey guys, mind if I hang out here with you?"
Jimmy shook his head. "Sorry, can't do it, Fred...Faith had a cell phone conversation with you earlier tonight."
"Come on, man...It's not like they showed me. It wasn't any big deal. You couldn't even hear my voice. She could have been talking to anyone."
"But it wasn't anyone. It was you," Jimmy stated adamantly.
"I used to get scenes," Fred started to rant. "Now they're giving the family stuff to Emily. I practically raised that kid on my own and this is the thanks I get. It's not fair. It's not fair at all."
"Davis, get him out of here," Sully muttered as Ty got up and began to jostle Fred out of the room. "It's not like he's a main cast member..." Jimmy and Doc nodded their heads in agreement.
"That's right," stated Doc.
Jimmy shook his head, a look of disgust on his face. "Not like you're exactly hurting for screen time, Doc."
"What the hell are you going on about, Doherty? I'm not in this episode either."
"Yeah, but you're in plenty of others. If anyone is getting screwed for screen time here, it's me."
"Wah, wah, wah," Doc moaned. "Bad enough I've got to listen to Carlos whining. I don't need to listen to you, too. I am the senior member."
Jimmy rolled his eyes. "Senior member, my ass. We've been here the same number of years, Doc."
"Hey, come on guys," Ty said as he walked back into the room after tossing Fred from the premises. "We're all here for the same reason. Fighting amongst ourselves isn't going to help anything. She's the one we've got to fight."
He turned his gaze towards the television set and they all watched wordlessly as Cruz sucked on a lollipop.
"Don't have any idea what Bosco sees in her," Sully said, shaking his head as Ty and Jimmy exchanged amused glances.
"Only -one- thing that Bosco sees in that woman," Jimmy said with a sly grin.
"Oh yeah," Ty nodded in agreement.
"That all you young guys think about?" Sully asked. "There are other things in life, you know."
"Yeah, but not many of them are quite so satisfying," Ty chuckled.
"You've got that right," Jimmy smirked.
"There is such a thing as loyalty to your partner," Sully stated emphatically. "I mean, Faith..." He was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.
"Hey! Hey, look! You see that?" Ty shouted, pointing at the screen in excitement. "She's lying about the notebook!"
Jimmy shook his head as he watched the television intently. "Bosco knows. See that look on his face? He knows she's lying."
"Maybe things are looking up after all," Sully murmured as the show came to its conclusion. "What do you think, Doc?"
There was no answer to Sully's question and Sully turned in Doc's direction only to see him lying with his head tilted back, fast asleep.
"He does that a lot, dozes off," Jimmy explained. "He gets really bored if he isn't in the scenes.
"That's funny," Ty laughed. "I get really bored when he is in the scenes."
"Well...it's been fun, but I'm out of here," Jimmy stated as he abruptly got up off the couch.
"Wait, so soon?" Ty asked.
"Come on...you saw Kim...all alone and broken-hearted...she needs some heavy duty comforting right now. I'll see you guys tomorrow."
"See ya, Doherty," Sully called out as he got to his feet as well. "Come on Davis. I'll buy you a beer."
"A beer?" Ty stared back at his partner with a disapproving look on his face.
Sully rolled his eyes. "Fine. I'll buy you a late dinner. We can drink...I don't know, lemonade?"
Ty chuckled as he stood up. "Okay, that's more like it."
"So what do you think of this two-part season finale?" Sully asked as they started out. "Looks pretty intense."
"Yeah...I don't know...I guess we just need to hope for the best," Ty said thoughtfully, "but I think we're going to be in for a bumpy ride..."
