Mills quotes from Chicago Fire

Yo Peter Mills. My partner Shay, she's been asking about you, been talking about you all morning.

Otis

She's a monster. A dude I know over at 19, he walked with a hitch for a week.

You guys are busting my balls.

Listen to me, kid. I just lost my house to foreclosure because I took a bath in the market. We're now living with my in-laws, which is two bedrooms shy of unpleasant. My wife won't take birth control pills because the pope said if she did God would cry, so I'm not having any sex. So if there's any chance that I could live vicariously through you, it's literally all I got.

All right.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm Peter Mills. Uh Pete.

[chuckles] Uh-huh. Peter Mills. Can you hand me that box right there?

Uh, yeah.

Thanks.

So the little girl from the bridge accident, she okay?

You really are new, aren't you? Listen. We get 'em to the doctor best we can, and then we move on. It's the only way to make it here.

Uh, yeah Yeah. So, um I was thinking I mean, I was wondering do you maybe wanna hook up for a beer or dinner or something?

Peter Mills, are you gay?

Me? No.

Because I am.

How long were you the Candidate here?

Otis

Not long. Four years.

Severide

[yelling at Mills] Hey! Candidate! One hand on the beam, Candidate! I don't care if you're carrying a damn cow! Men die when they relax!

Okay, Kelly. He gets it.

Severide

Yeah, he better.

He’s right. One hand on the beam, no matter what.

Yeah, okay.

Otis

All I'm just saying is, I'm more than happy to design a new seal more reflective of the truck we are. Anything besides a goat!

[to Casey] What's he on about?

He doesn't like our crest.

[to Otis] I love that goat. That goat's all about reversing the curse.

What curse?

The Cubs. A goat owner cursed 'em once, which is why they always suck. Everyone knows that.

Otis

So we have a cursed crest?

How the hell should I know? Leave it alone. The goat rocks.

Two hours left in the shift and no calls yet. That happen very often?

[to Mouch] He did not just say that.

Accident, truck 81, squad 3.

Hey Mills. Pitcher's got a no-hitter going in the eighth inning. Do you go up to him and say, "looks like you got a no-hitter going"?

No, but––

Don't do it at the damn firehouse either.

Yeah I got it. [Otis turns and glares at him]

Oh! Good afternoon, candidate.

Sorry.

Otis

First he blows a no-hitter. Now he's coming in five minutes late. So much for employee of the week.

You know, you were the candidate up until two weeks ago. Why are you riding him so hard?

Otis

The abused abuse, Cruz.

What we got in the treasury box?

Dick. We spent it all on the elliptical machine so Shay could keep her ass toned.

Oh, Herrmann, please. Everyone benefits from me having a toned ass.

Mills, you're in charge of a fundraiser for a new TV.

[hopefully] Instead of cooking?

In conjunction with cooking.

Otis

I believe it's called multitasking.

Okay, um...how about a t-shirt booth in the driveway?

We already sell t-shirts.

Yeah, but I mean, no one can ever find the key to the cabinet, Herrmann never has change in the treasury box. It's a pain in the ass, so we put the shirts out front and display 'em properly.

Mouch

I don't know how that's gonna generate enough money––

And, we get Nicki to man the booth.

Ding. Done.

That is called putting it over the goal line, Peter Mills. [fist-bumps Mills]

Why don't you put her in a bikini while you're at it?

Otis

Before I respond, are you joking, or are you serious?

About as serious as putting you in a bikini.

Otis

We should eat, huh.

Make a sandwich.

So what's the deal with the Lieutenant and the guy from IAD.

Bad history. They went through the academy together and there was an incident...

What kind of incident?

Mouch

The kind that ends with Griffin getting his face punched in.

Why did the Lieutenant hit him?

Mouch

He was talking trash about Casey's family. [Herrmann looks at him in surprise] Um, but...see, we don't talk about that.

So what'd you do?

Nothing. I just told her we recorded the whole thing on our thermal cameras.

Wait, thermal cameras don't record. [Casey and Herrmann glare at him] [realizes] Oh! That's good.

[sees Casey standing on the truck fixing the garage door] What's up?

Otis

The door's jammed.

I told Chief we needed to grease this puppy before the weather turned.

Otis

He ignored you?

No! He told me to do it but I forgot. I've been preoccupied.

Mouch

Weren't you and Cindy using protection?

We've got four kids Mouch. I was counting on my sperm being too tired to make the swim. [Casey looks down at him in amusement]

[awkwardly] Well, I'm gonna head inside and check the levels on the hot chocolate. [leaves]

Yeah, I'm gonna provide back-up. [leaves with Shay]

Otis

[to Mills] You know, my grandmother had this garage door that was always stuck two feet off the ground so one time I tell my brother...

[notices them raising their hands] What?

We've got a rule. You tell a story we've all heard a million times, we raise our hand, you gotta shut up, no questions asked.

Otis

That's actually impolite and insulting.

[scoffs] Like that's on us.

Otis

Board-up crews.

Why do they always look like gangsters?

Otis

Because they are.

So, what exactly is our role in bomb squad assist?

Nothing. Not unless the bomb tech snips a wrong wire.

Who put dog food in there? [sees Hadley chuckling] That's funny to you?

Relax, mutt.

What did you say to me?!

Severide

Mutt? You out of your mind?

When I was a candidate over at 38, they put menthol in my underwear. What is the––

No, no, no, what you did was so far beyond that, that if you can't tell the difference you are dumber than you look. What I mean, this house was already under a microscope. You really couldn't put that together?
