Eamonn Walker: Wallace Boden

Quotes 

• Otis : This is gonna be weird. You really gonna sit at the Squad table?

  Wallace Boden : He worked hard. Nights. Weekends. And he was willing to give it all up today... for his brothers.

  Joe Cruz : Hey, what you did today... Spartacus would've been proud.

  Otis : Why didn't you tell me, man?

  Joe Cruz : I didn't know how to. After Sylvie and me broke up, I just... had to challenge myself.

  Otis : Okay.

  Joe Cruz : Hey. You're my best friend, Brian. You mean more to me than... well, my own family. I didn't want to do anything to blow that. Besides, I didn't think I was gonna make Squad anyway.

  Otis : Then I'll tell you what I would've told you if you would've told me sooner. Of course you belong on Squad, man. Congratulations, seriously. And now I get to drive the truck.

• Wallace Boden : Okay. Everybody, listen up. Scott Rice has just been dismissed from Firehouse 51. And I'm not gonna kick a man while he's down, so leave it to say his family situation got in the way of his work here. Joe Cruz, will you stand up here for me, please? It has recently been reported to me that Joe Cruz completed his Squad Certification last week.

  Otis : What?

  Wallace Boden : And since we now have an opening, it is my honor to welcome Joe Cruz to Squad 3. Joe.. make us proud.

  Joe Cruz : Thank you, Chief. I will.

  [looks at Capp and Tony] 

  Joe Cruz : I promise.

  Otis : What the hell are you doing, man?

  Wallace Boden : Brian, you are now the driver of Truck 81.

  Randall McHolland : Uh, since Casey's gone, who's gonna be acting lieutenant?

  Wallace Boden : I am. Anybody got an issue with that? Good.

  [alarm blares] 

  Emergency dispatch : Truck 81, Squad 3, Ambulance 61, Truck 64, Truck 70...

  Wallace Boden : Here we go.

  Emergency dispatch : Ambulance 96, warehouse fire, 1400 North Cortland Street.

  Otis : What, you couldn't have said something? After all this, you're joining them.

  Christopher Herrmann : Otis, you driving or what?

  Otis : Yeah. Let's go.

  Kelly Severide : Hey, Cruz. Do your job.

• Wallace Boden : Shut the door.

  Kelly Severide : I went to Air Mask and spoke to Jerry. You never took your regulator in.

  Scott Rice : Sure, I did.

  Kelly Severide : No, you didn't. And you lied to my face. You're off Squad 3. Effective immediately.

  Scott Rice : That's it? You don't want to hear my side?

  Kelly Severide : You have a side?

  Scott Rice : Look, since Angie died, it's, uh... I'm all Logan's got, Kelly. And after the Chicago Med incident, well, I started to think about him, and what if he lost both of us? Hmm? He'd be an orphan. With no one to raise him?

  Kelly Severide : Scott, there's a lot of men with families in the CFD. But everyone, when they report for this job, puts it all out there. Everyone. You weren't ready, Scott. You just weren't.

  Scott Rice : That's it? Pink slip and see you later?

• Wallace Boden : Chief Tiberg.

  Chief Joel Tiberg : It's been brought to my attention, Wallace, that one of your firefighters threatened Batallion Chief Dan Weiss with violence at the blaze today. I need a name, Chief. Now.

  Otis : I did it.

  Joe Cruz : No, Otis.

  Otis : Yep. It was me.

  Joe Cruz : No. It was me

  Chief Joel Tiberg : Well, who was it?

  Kelly Severide : It was me.

  Randall McHolland : I did it, Chief.

  Capp : I did it.

  Tony : It was me.

  Sylvie Brett : I did it.

  Jessica Chilton : I did it.

  Chief Joel Tiberg : What is this? You don't think I can find out who it was?

  Wallace Boden : Yeah, I do. But I gotta ask. Why the hell would you want to?

  Chief Joel Tiberg : Firehouse 51.

• Wallace Boden : I've seen it all since I've been here. Haven't always dealt with it with the grace and the class that I would like, but I tried. We have all this animosity. You can't have animosity in a house. It's a killer. But what do I tell 'em? Get in their faces, tell them stop acting like a bunch of damn babies? Or do I give yet another speech about togetherness and family? I don't know, Donna. Beginning to wonder if I can still lead this house. They stopped listening.

  Donna Robbins : Wallace. Hey. Why are you using words when you have you?
