That's a lot of action.
Gotta be willing to go the extra mile.
Are you, Jack?

In this job, you need it.
I mean, you get enough fires, you find God.
Yeah.
A good confession now, son.

Uh, bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
It's been, uh...
...seven years since my last confession.

Well, you know.

Impure thoughts?
Well, yes, quite a bit.
Try to cut back.

You think we'll get
something today or what?

I think you put a hex on us.
Uh, did you report a fire, ma'am?
I burned some bread
in the oven, that's all.
Oh, well,
can we come in and check, please?
You put one foot in here,
this dog'll tear your ass off.
Get in there, probie.
Come here.
