“Rescue Me” season finale
Well, it’s all over and it was quite a show. It opens with Tommy in the station house with the others. But it’s before 9/11 and his dead firefighter cousin, Jimmy, is there kidding around with everyone. After that scene, they meet the new interim chief replacing heart-attack Jerry. His name is Pecher, with a French accent, but they call him Chief Pecker and enjoy different ways to use the name pecker.
The new chief goes to his office to get a magazine, but he finds Sean and Maggie having sex on his desk. Sean explains how they are newly married, and Maggie screams, “Get out of here, you perv . . . GET OUT!! Sean pulls the magazine out from under them and the chief gingerly takes it and leaves the room.
Tommy and Janet meet at his place and go into a private room to discuss her pregnancy. Janet says it might be Johnny’s baby and Tommy says it couldn’t as his sperm is better than Johnny’s. Their little girl pokes her head into the room and asks about sperm. So Tommy stutters around and comes out with “It’s like Spam only more protein and hard to find in a store.” Makes sense to me.
The Probie makes a date with a new girl who wants her brother to tag along. It turns out to be more than that. He later tells Sean about it who immediately tells everyone in the station. Probie is mad, but they tell him it’s required by law to talk about it. After much discussion, they all agree that banging a Hansel and Gretel combo is not a bad thing.
The chief escapes from the hospital and shows up at the station in his little hospital gown – some cab picked him up off the street. They take him away and Tommy wonders how he could have been wandering around the streets for so long. Lou answers, “It’s New York – there’s a guy in a hospital gown on every corner.”
Maggie and Sean are back in bed at home, finally, and she tells him that sex is really better at the fire house. Sean thinks it might be against the rules, but she tells him how great it was on the desk with all the papers flying around, the desk creaking, the pencils sticking her thigh and the feel of the desk blotter on her bare butt. So they jump up and are off to the station.
All the guys are together and all saying they won’t be leaving the job. Franco screwed up his lieutenant’s test intentionally, Probie realizes he wants to stay with his friends, Lou discovered he can’t stand being on the water in a boat or even near one, Sean never was going to leave and Tommy never did want to go.
The last scene has Tommy at Sheilah’s new home on the water which she bought and decorated, thinking Tommy would be living there with her. She fixes a wonderful dinner for him and then he tells her he didn’t put his papers in to retire. She is freaked out by that, but holds it all together. She asks if he even planned on spending the night with her. He doesn’t answer, so she decides to fix his drink. She fixes it by putting something in it to make him fall asleep, which he does, while they’re watching “Meerkat Manor.” I loved that. After a while she gets tired of his sleeping and really angry that he won’t be living there with her, and she jumps up and goes crazy in the house. She throws things all over and starts a fire. She tries to put it out but can’t, and Tommy is sound asleep and she can’t wake him up, so she runs out of the house. For an instant, I wonder if she plans on just leaving him there . . . I guess I’ll never know. She screams all over outside and can’t speak coherently when she calls 911 on the car phone, so she goes back inside and tries to drag Tommy out who has now come to his senses, partially. The show ends with doors and windows being blown out of the house and the whole place more or less exploding. People have gathered outside and are watching as the house explodes and goes up in flames. Quite an ending! I’m assuming Tommy will recover from his burns or smoke inhalation as will Sheilah and both will be back for the next season.
In the meantime, what am I going to do . . . . .
