ThinkGreys Anatomy, but replace medicine with fire.
Switch the pretty doctors for pretty firefighters, but keep the drama and the sexual tension.
Andy is tough, shes strong, and shes the captains daughter.

Shes also in a relationship with Lieutenant Jack Gibson (Grey Damon).
Instead of on-call rooms and medical supply closets, firefighters get busy where you keep the hoses.
(Thats not a euphemism.
Theres an actual room with hoses.)
While making out with Jack, Andy is surprised to find an engagement ring in his pocket.
Jack goes on the defensive immediately, begging Andy not to freak out.
Before we hear her answer, the alarm rings.
I have a feeling that bell is going to cut into many conversations this season.
I smell a smoky love triangle!
Or is there aSeattle PDin our future?
Everyone rushes into the building to look for people left behind.
Clearly this is a buddy situation; Jack is teamed up with the captain.
Jack, the almost fiance, has lost his almost father-in-law/boss.
This is a perfect example of a horrible day.
Andy and her ride-or-die girl-power fellow firefighter Maya (Danielle Savre) scramble and help Jack find the captain.
Hes unconscious, and the fire is too big to manage.
Jump out the window, of course.
Thankfully, the others have inflated handy pillow-like structures to break the fall.
Id like to take this moment to point out that the Station 19 firefighters call oxygen O2.
Two syllables are easier than three.
Plus, it sounds cooler.
Meanwhile, in the ambulance, Warren (Jason George) a.k.a.
Fellow firefighter Travis stops him and reminds Warren that HE IS NO LONGER A DOCTOR.
Everyone rolls into Grey Sloan, and the captain is whisked away by Dr. Bailey.
Andy takes this time to lay into Jack for leaving her father in the middle of a raging fire.
Jack chooses this point in time to insinuate that Andy is mad at him because he proposed.
Oh no he didnt.
Three cheers for Meredith Grey!
Ninety seconds later, Meredith turns back around and commands Andy to suck it up.
Okay, thats enough.
Put your game face on.
Weve got your dad.
Now you go be brave for them.
This is Shondaland, ladies and gentlemen.
(Recap continues on next page)
The good news is that the captain made it out of surgery.
The bad news is that he has cancer.
The captain decides to step down immediately, putting Jack in charge in the meantime.
Hes officially moved back into town.
And hes worried about the Herreras.
Ryan pumps her up with a thousand compliments.
Then he encourages her to go after the captains job herself.
She does most of the work anyway.
In fact, he insists she talk to her dad about the job.
You know what never-ending support and confidence does for a woman in Shondaland, right?
Within seconds, Andys seducing Ryan and his shirt is coming off.
Id like to see more of that in the future, c’mon.
Does this make me Team Ryan?
The next day Andy regrets sleeping with Ryan.
First, Andy saves a girl who is stuck between two brick walls its exactly what youre thinking.
And something tells me that Andys sudden promotion isnt going to sit well with others.
If you want to see what Christmas is like for firefighters, this is it.
In the meantime, both are in charge until new leadership is in place.
Right before the alarm rings, firefighter Dean Miller (Okieriete Onaodowan) rushes in late.
Andy puts him on desk duty while the rest answer the fire call at a local school.
The principal assures the firefighters that no one is in the building and shes positive someone pulled the alarm.
Andy sends Warren and firefighter Victoria (Barrett Doss) in to sweep the halls.
They find the pulled alarm, with the blue I DID IT paint on the handle.
To Warrens surprise, he notices his son at the end of the hallway.
His hands are hidden, and Warren immediately knows that his kid set off the alarm.
Why didnt he go and grab a teacher you ask?
The girl is the principals 13-year-old daughter.
She doesnt want her mother to know that shes pregnant.
Also, DID YOU READ THAT SHE IS 13?
Victoria takes point and calls Andy for supplies from the ambulance the same ambulance that Andy just sent away.
Terrible timing, right?
A bit of screaming and several complications later, voila!
Now, how do we tell the principal?
So why didnt the ambulance just turn around?
Because firefighters Miller and Travis (Jay Hayden) were on another call to a nursing home.
Page got his boys stuck in his shower chair.
It also seems that this happens frequently.
Page is lonely, and Travis empathizes, agreeing that the quiet is the hardest part.
That night, theres another call to assist in an overturned tanker.
But they dont have any foam.
She looks at Warren and they lock eyes, holding their breath.
Then he starts the hand gestures of, you guessed it, Im a Little Teapot.
If these two teammates hook up, I might be angry.
Do not cheat on Bailey, Warren.
Do you hear me?
There is no time!
They cant wait for the foam, and the flames are honing in on their family.
Andy throws all caution to the wind and backs the truck right through the fire.
Why didnt they think of that three teapots ago?
It just wont stop beeping!
And its still beeping!
Miller looks up and knocks a hole in the ceiling in this womans bedroom, and smoke pours out.
He swoops her up like firemen do, and they rush out to safety.
Its everything you want in a fire rescue, thats for sure.
Percolating on the adrenaline of clear fire, Andy sidles up next to Jack for a little smack talk.
I thought his shirt was going to come off, but no luck.
Andys just feeling the fire and channeling it toward Jack.
Neither is backing down.
Theres definitely some heat.
But Im still Team Ryan.
