It's over there through the doors.

I can't go in there.

Come on.

We'll find someplace else, honey.

Hand it over here, boss.

Hey, John!

They're coming!

You hang in there! Okay?

I love you, John!

I'm waiting for you!

Don't give up, okay?

Will.

Tell them

I'm coming, too.

You tell them.

It's great up here!

It's just so great!

Hey, where did the buildings go?

Hey, where did the buildings go?

They're gone, kid. They're gone.

You're going home.

You done it, Will.

You done it.

Go to your family.

Who's there?

No, not yet.

Can you hear me?

Not yet.

John?

John, can you hear me?

-John!

-Easy, Scott.

Scotty?

-Down here.

-Coming to you. I'm good.

-I'm coming.

-It's tight.

I think I see him, Lou. I got him.

-Is he awake?

-Semi.

John? John, can you hear me?

John! I'm Scott, from ESU 5.

Man, I'm not gonna leave you.

I'm gonna do whatever I can

to get you out of here. All right?

-It's tight, Lou.

-All right.

-Just send it back.

-All right.

Find a place to put debris.

Louie, bring it back.

I got an elevator shaft here.

You're gonna be all right, John.

-We're not leaving you.

-Bring the Sawzall down.

Hang in there, John. Come on.

You'll be all right.

Stay with us, John. Come on.

We got you.

We're transporting Jimeno to Bellevue.

Have a trauma team standing by.

Respiration's 26, B.P. is 90 over 58.

Got him on 15 liters O2.

Room's prepped.

Take him all the way down to the end.

Hey, they brought him in the back.

Come on.

This way.

Over here.

Oh, my God.

He's breathing out rocks.

Will? Can you hear me?

Hey, baby.

Oh, baby, are you okay?

We're taking him to the O.R. now.

They said your leg was broke.

Will, baby?

They told me you were all right.

I want you to name her Olivia.

No, I want Alyssa.

For you.

Olivia.

Ma'am, we're gonna have to

take him up to O.R.

It'll be better for him

if you come with us, ma'am.

Will.

He'll be okay, right?

There are some complications,

-but we've given him good...

-Will?

I'm going to name her Olivia, okay?

Okay.

John? You got two big slabs

on your chest.

It's the only way we're gonna

get you out of here, all right?

I got the big one, you got the little one.

Pull it off.

All right. John. We got one more.

One more, brother,

and we got your chest clear.

We got a good start.

-Joe-Joe?

-Yeah?

Tell Lieutenant

to get a paramedic down here.

-We got to get an IV in him now.

-All right.

We're gonna need a paramedic

down here now!

Come on, John. We're almost there.

McLoughlin.

You're in good hands, John.

You're getting out of here.

That's it, John. That's it.

Hang in there, brother.

That's it. Hang in there, John.

Don't give up.

Don't give up. We didn't give up.

Don't you give up.

John, can you hear me?

John, wake up.

That's it, John, wake up. Stay with us.

Don't go nowhere.

Come on, John. Come on, John.

Stay with us, John. Don't give up.

Come on, brother. Hang in there.

-John.

-Come on, John.

Hang in there, brother.

Hang in there. Come on.

We're almost home.

We're almost home, man.

Come on.

Stay with us, brother.

I let you down.

All these years, I've been so careful.

Now I screw up.

I'm sorry.

Did I ever love you enough, honey?

I mean,

did I love you good

like I was supposed to?

What the hell happened?

I think we had it, John.

It was in the moments.

Happens to most people, I guess.

Me with the kids,

and you with the department.

Somewhere along the way

I guess we kind of stopped looking

at each other.

Come home, honey.

The kids need you.

No.

I need you.

Donna.

I can't.

I can't get out of here.

Honey, the kitchen's

not even finished yet.

Okay. Would you get off the kitchen?

Is this necessary?

-I'm stuck.

-Then get unstuck.

Get off your ass, John.

Just get up and come home.

Donna, I can't. I...

You can do it.

John?

What's taking so long? Hey, you guys!

One thing he said,

of all the images we've seen,

it is a scene of New Yorkers calmly

evacuating...

Great.

It's not working. Don't bother.

Waiting's sh*t, isn't it?

If it's gonna be bad,

you just want to know it. No bullshit.

That's right.

They're digging my husband out.

They found him in the rubble.

That's good.

My son's down there. Lawrence.

He's the elevator operator

in the South Tower. A good boy.

When I saw that building going down

like a pancake...

Damn thing is, I yelled at him.

Last time, I...

I made dinner.

He got held up at work.

Food went to waste.

And I yelled.

Now all I want to do is hold him.

I know.

I know.

I know.

Oh, come here. Come here.

I know. I know, sweetie.

It's all right. It's all right.

Come here.

It's all right. You're okay.

I know.

Thank you so...

Thank you so...

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

It'll be all right.

You're gonna be all right.

Thank you.

-We got you, buddy.

-Hang in there, man.

-Hang in there.

-Hang in there, John.

-Good job.

-We got you, man. We got you.

You're going home, John.

You're going home.

-Way to go, man.

-Thank you.

-Welcome home.

-God bless you, John.

Thank you.

Way to go. Way to go, guy.

John?

-Hi.

-Donna.

Hi, baby.

John.

You kept me

alive.

You guys come

all the way from Wisconsin?

Yeah, those bastards.

We had to do something.

You want a brat?

Finest brat you'll get in the whole world.

That's a guarantee you can take

to the bank, mister.

Yeah, sure.

What are you doing down here?

-Paramedic.

-Atta way.

No, I'm not coming in today.

I don't know.

They're going to need some good men

out there to avenge this.

We'll see.

Jimeno just got out.

McLoughlin's still in surgery.

We're still missing 14.

Jesus. What do we do?

Thousands of people in there, Paddy.

Where the hell are they?

9/11 showed us

what human beings are capable of.

The evil, yeah, sure.

But it also brought out a goodness

we forgot could exist.

People taking care of each other

for no other reason

than it was the right thing to do.

-That's my son, JJ.

-JJ, I'm Tim.

It's important for us

to talk about that good, to remember.

If she wasn't here, I wouldn't be here.

Hi. How are you? Good to see you. Hi.

'Cause I saw a lot of it that day.

Olivia, you coming?
