Matthew Casey : [reading an incident report Casey wrote] "The truck officer monetarily lost balance due to excessive aerial sway possibly caused by high winds, but recovered and continued with the rescue operation." High winds?
[Casey shrugs]
Kelly Severide : [Boden looks at him] I was inside the fire at the time. I didn't see any of it.
Christopher Herrmann : [Boden looks at him] I mean, I don't know what happened, exactly. The ladder bucked like a bronco.
Wallace Boden : If a mistake was made, tell me.
Matthew Casey : Mouch screwed up. He knows it. That's punishment enough. Rather not send this up the chain.
Kelly Severide : I'm with Casey on this. They suspend Mouch, we just get some other floater with half his experience.
Christopher Herrmann : Yeah.
Wallace Boden : [to Casey] Well, it's your neck on the line. Far as I'm concerned, it's your call to make.
Kelly Severide : Hey, Chief?
Wallace Boden : Yeah?
Kelly Severide : What's that?
Wallace Boden : You never seen a standing desk before?
Kelly Severide : No, not-not in here.
Wallace Boden : Well, you know what they say. Um... sitting is the new smoking.
Christopher Herrmann : Who's "they"?
Wallace Boden : How the hell am I supposed to know?

Christopher Herrmann : [Mouch is experimenting with the ladder on Truck 81] Hey, Mouch! What's the matter? You throw another Frisbee up on the roof?
Randall McHolland : I don't know what happened. Lock's working just fine now, but on the call... Swear I locked it in. I know I did.
Christopher Herrmann : Okay. What'd Casey say?
Randall McHolland : Ah, not a lot. Just stared at me with hate in his eyes.
Christopher Herrmann : No, he didn't. I mean, maybe he's a little pissed off, is my guess.
Randall McHolland : He's got every right to be. He was half an inch away from a career-ending injury... or worse. I know I didn't bump the lever. And even if I did, when it's locked in, it shouldn't move!
Christopher Herrmann : Hey. If you say it was locked in, I believe you.
Randall McHolland : Then why can't I find a mechanical problem? Can you just let me...
Christopher Herrmann : Okay. Of course. All right?
Randall McHolland : I gotta figure this out. What happened today, that can't ever happen again.
