  Speaker 3: Course, to work with family, tiny crew, all in the
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: same Airbnb type of shoot. That harkens back to the
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: early days, his early days in mine, not so early days. Overlapped.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: It's really really remarked. Thanks for letting me touch on that.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, when you're ready to go, come back and talk.

• 3:07
  Speaker 1: also in Chicago Fire on NBC season thirteen. Wow, just
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: wrapped up with some drama for your character right there.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: What can fans expect in the upcoming season?
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Well, I know nothing about the story as always, which
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: is an incredible thing I think. Anyhow, it's kind of
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: new for me where you really just don't know the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: week by week what's going to happen then to you
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: next you become so associated with your own character. Yeah,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: the whole series length of time, So I don't know
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: what happens. I can say officially now that I am
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: back for season fourteen, So that's wonderful news. I think
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: at about episode eighteen or nineteen, they could have gone
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: any way with a cheap pascal. I could have been
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: asked out, it sent up the river, whatever it was.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: So I made it through the season with some terrible
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: loss and had the honor of portraying a family member,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: you know, in deep grief, sudden loss, and not just again.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: The difference for me is I might have played that
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: in a movie, but then it's over here. It's the
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: kind of loss that plays and never goes away. And
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: you see my character very complex process of trying to
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: trying to go through the early days of loss and
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: get back to work and kind of fail and fall
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: down and have that firehouse.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he pick them up.
