Another very good episode. It starts out with a homeless man getting dumped in a garbage truck and the operator does not hear him. He is able to make a quick call to 911 but will it be quick enough to not get crushed. A young man and his mom get trapped in an elevator. This story is a little strange to me, only because it does not just end with the elevator segment, but it continues. Normally a rescue like this ends and that is the end of that part of the story, so it makes me wonder if this might be a character that comes back again. Athena finds herself tied up with a new man, and it has the potential to be embarrassing. Finally, we get to Buck and Abby. Abby has had some of the best moments in the series, and once again she continues that. Buck is kind of the surprise, but I like what they are doing with his character. Hopefully they don’t at some point make me hate him, but for now I like where his character is going.
Overall, this is another great episode and one that has a bunch of good stories, some character development, and an event at the end that leaves you wanting to see how that plays out in the next episode.
