That's why I love this show still. Good humor, paired with drama and all other stuff. Some changes now: Guest credits after the intro, new helmets and shirts for the paramedics. S04E01 The Screenwriter or The Movie Story (German) Summary: A screenwriter follows Squad 51 during a typical day, which includes a motorcycle accident caused by a possibly drunk driver named Gene; the wives of the two drivers deal with both their husbands' issues, a giant construction worker exposed to tetraethyl lead who becomes disoriented and combative (to the point it takes five firemen to restrain him), assist in the birth of a baby to a deaf-mute couple at a supermarket, and rescue three men trapped in a toy factory fire that turns explosive. — Gary Richard Collins II (on IMDB) A screenwriter spends a day observing Squad 51 at work, including a motorcycle accident, a worker suffering from exposure to chemicals, the delivery of a baby, and a structure fire at a toy factory. (from here again) Thoughts: The station gets a screenwriter assigned to watch their action with fires and all, yet it looks like Art, that's his name, gets on everyone's nerves. The first call brings the station to a motorcycle accident where they might deal with a drunken car driver. Art still sees more to it than actually happened. At Rampart, by sheer coincidence, both wives of the men involved and met and Dr. Brackett very late realizes where the problem is. At 51, the guys discuss Art, naturally, but well, Chet seems to be the only one who knows him. However, the next call brings the station to a factory where a giant construction worker has inhaled tetraethy lead and well, it becomes a challenge to get the serum in him. It takes Johnny, who goes in first, Marco and Chet at first to get him down but fail and Roy just watches unsure. A second try works, and Cap and Mike who watched it only let the stokes down. Oh man, and Art was lost. Back at the station, the guys are ready to eat whereas Mike is outside with Art and the others meet Renee Miss October. Chet even forgets his chili. Johnny tries to make them stay and eat with them, but a call interrupts and the squad is called out to a supermarket where Roy and Johnny have to help a deaf couple with delivering their baby. Another challenge but they manage with the assisting of Rampart via Bio-Phone. Drs. Early, Brackett and Dixie listen carefully. Back at 51 again, Johnny tries to get Art over to 43s with more action and so on, yet the last call brings the station to a toy factory where two men are trapped inside and one is extinguishing the fire on his own, yet gets electroluted. Cap, Roy and Johnny get immediately into action and bring the man back. Meanwhile Marco and Chet rescue another man who tells them that another man is inside. And so Johnny and Chet go in again and find him, free him on time before the whole toy factory explodes - which gives Art a wonderful idea for a new movie and Johnny gets subsititued for dolls. Guest stars: Larry Csonka - chemical worker Shelly Berman - screenwriter ('Art') Roger Perry - drunken driver Some pics (again partly Tumblr): As an extra: --> Johnny and his way in the 'arena' with the chemical worker. Very determined!! And Marco has a mustache now too. Best quote: When don't you come down and get me. (from the chemical worker) See you tomorrow!

In that case you should really watch it again, Tim. Like I do. S04E02 I'll fix it or The Experts (German) Summary: A man is trapped under their house when it begins collapsing into itself due to the house being built on a natural oil well. Dixie asks Johnny to fix the bike for the fire victim. Chet and Johnny try (and fail) to repair a bike for a fire victim, prior to Dixie's visitation at Station 51. A bookworm teenager who wants to be a doctor is admitted with abdominal pain and speaks to Drs. Brackett and Morton using medical terminology. The firemen rescue a child stuck in a pipe, remove a ring from a young man's finger that belongs to a woman with a jealous husband, later Roy & Capt. Stanley work on a stuck shut-off valve at a chemical plant fire. — Gary Richard Collins II (on IMDB) A woman's husband is trapped under their house where a natural oil well has erupted. John tries to fix a boy's bike. A boy who wants to become a doctor is admitted to Rampart. The firemen rescue a child stuck in a pipe. Roy and John remove a ring from a young man’s finger. Roy and Capt. Stanley struggle with a shutoff valve at a structure fire. (from here again) Thoughts: We start with the station already on the way to a house which is suited over a natural oil well and it has already begun collapsing. The paramedics and engine crew have their hands full and get very oily to save the man trapped under it who has broken his arm. Captain Stanley does his best to calm the wife down. They free him before the house collapses and when at Rampart, Drs. Early and Morton work on fixing a mini bike for a fire victim and so Johnny offers to help. More later. Meanwhile, also at the hospital, Dr. Brackett deals with a teenager who seems to have read any medical book and comes up with the right medical term and treatment - for himself. Well, not easy with him and his parents. Then the station gets called to a kid stuck in a pipe, because his brother told him there's money in it. Cap and Johnny work together while Roy calms the brother down and the other three bring oxygen in the pipe. Like a fishing rod, they get him out and to safety. Back at 51, Johnny tries to repair the bike and is happy about a manual (a wrong one) but the squad gets a call and so it's Chet's turn. At a shop, a nervous woman awaits them because an employee has taken her ring and can't remove it before the very big husband returns. This makes even Johnny and Roy nervous but they manage to get the ring up but have to get it back to the woman, though the husband has returned by now. Roy distracts the man while Johnny gives the ring back to the woman and then they're gone. At the station, Chet has knocked down the bike completely just as Dixie wants to have it back. They give it to her in a trash can. Ouch. The last call brings the station to a fire in a chemical plant where Roy and Hank try to shut off the valve while the other four water them and the pipes. Roy caughts fire but it's deleted quickly. Sitting on the squad, Johnny complains about Roy being wet. lol One day later, Dixie returns with the trash can and tells the three of them that fire victim has repaired his bike himself before going home. At least, Johnny admits to have made a mistake here. Guest star: Richard Kiel - the shop owner/husband Some pics: Some scenes are made for Gifs. Take a look at those tomorrow. See you then!

For me it brings also memories back. Been some time since I last watched it on TV. S04E03 Gossip or Character Assassination (German) Summary: Roy and John have to break into an armored car involved in an accident to rescue a trapped guard. A victim of an auto accident has a skull fracture that needs consent from his wife, whom Dixie discusses with, but it turns out that he has two wives. One of the Rampart nurses starts spreading rumors about Dr. Morton's financial situation, and Dixie confronts the nurse about spreading gossip. A child is brought in with cyanide poisoning from eating peach pits. Roy tries to get John to enter the Fireman's Olympics' track events. The firemen rescue an electrocution victim hanging in mid-air and a man trapped in an explosive warehouse fire. — Gary Richard Collins II (on IMDB) When an armored car is involved in an accident, Roy and John have to break into it to rescue a trapped passenger. The victim driving the car that hit it has a skull fracture that needs consent from his wife, with whom Dixie discusses the situation, but it turns out that he has two wives. One of the Rampart nurses starts spreading rumors about Dr. Morton's financial situation, and Dixie confronts her about spreading gossip. A child is brought in with cyanide poisoning from eating peach pits. Roy tries to get John to enter the Fireman's Olympics track events. The firefighters rescue a man hanging in mid-air from live power lines, an electrocution victim hanging in mid-air, and a man trapped in an explosive warehouse fire. (from here again) Thoughts: We start with Johnny mopping the floor at the station when two strange calls come in but later then Chet and Roy who tries to convince Johnny to join the Fireman's Olympics since John was a champion in running once. A call for the station stops this discussion then they deal with an accident. The engine takes care of the less injured whereas the squad deals with the armored car. One driver they can easily free but the other one is trapped inside and they have to break in. At Rampart,the paramedics, docs and nurses are casually chatting when a nurse starts a rumor about Dr. Morton's financial situation - and well, it has consequences. Meanwhile, at 51, Roy again tries to convince Johnny to join in but he says, the movitation was different back then. The next call brings them to a man who was electroluted while repairing a hotel sign. They managed to bring him back. At Rampart, a mother brings her child who is diagnosed with cyanide from eating too much peach pits, and the gossip has meanwhile reached Dr. Brackett and a patient. Dr. Morton explains it to Brackett whereas Dixie confronts the nurse about her behavior. Huhu. And then another victim of a car accident turns out to have two wives which leaves even Dixie confused. The next morning, Johnny is back at the station and tells Roy to have tested running out but his legs are not up to it. The last call brings the station to a chemical warehouse fire where a man turns out to be missing. Roy and Johnny, along with Captain Stanley, go in and it's getting hard but Roy and Cap find the man who they bring out, yet an explosion makes Johnny lose the orientation. So, only Roy and Cap come out when they realize that Johnny's missing and Roy goes in once more and finds his partner on time before the warehouse explodes. In the end, they both decide that a new event at the Olympics: going blind dash in a total state of panic. Ah! Note: - once again directed by Kevin Tighe Some pics (again with Tumblr): As a bonus: Some Gifs might follow. Haven't decided yet. See you tomorrow!

Here we go again and the way Johnny's in trouble. Shoot! Never mind. S04E04 Nagging Suspicion or The Bet King (German) Summary: John is trying to get Roy to give up his "system" for picking winning horses out of the newspaper. The firemen rescue a woman who fell into the lion's cage at the zoo & was bitten, help an exotic dancer who became ill from mono at a strip club, whom Dr. Brackett and Dixie take care of. The paramedics also assist an adult who fell off a skateboard into a cactus patch on his rump (then John does the exact same thing), and they save a wounded policeman from a sniper. — Gary Richard Collins II (on IMDB + corrected) John is trying to get Roy to give up his "system" for picking winning horses out of the newspaper. The firefighters rescue a woman who fell into the lion's cage at the zoo and was bitten; help an exotic dancer, who became ill from mono at a strip club, to whom Dr. Brackett and Dixie tend; then assist an adult, who fell off a skateboard into a cactus patch on his rump (John then does the very same thing); and save a wounded policeman from a sniper. ( here again and it's almost the same) Thoughts: We start with Roy reading the sports section in the newspaper and everyone wants to know more since he seems to have a good system to pick winners. More in time. The first call brings the station to the zoo where a woman has fallen into the lion's cage and got bitten. Johnny's the one going down to treat her while the others just help with the material and stokes. After getting her up, Johnny has to climb quickly up to not have the lion at his back. Going back from Rampart, they still discuss Roy's system and then park in when another call brings the station to a gogo bar where a woman is ill. Let's just say, the working environment for the paramedics is hard but they manage, though barely. At least, Johnny. lol Back at 51, everyone asks Roy for his input since the whole station wants to bet and Johnny has talked. Roy glares at him but still offers a name. The squad gets called out to a man who has fallen into a cactus patch on his rump but refuses treatment. Roy lets him sign a form and you can guess what happens next. Johnny tries it as well and boom. Dixie is happy to treat him but Johnny threatens Roy to say a word and he obeys. Ouch. Going back to the squad, Roy tells Johnny that he only goes after the name with betting, yet Johnny offers to look deeper into a horse's history and all. Yeah, well. The last call brings the station to a sniper who threatens the police. One officer gets shot and so Roy and Johnny treat him under these circumstances while the police and firemen try to get the situation under control which they manage - lately. For the next shift, they look at the results of the horses and they all lost. At least, they don't accuse Roy - yet. Some pics (again partly Tumblr): As a bonus: I know there are more pics but sometimes really hard to find. *sighs* See you tomorrow!
